Artificial sweeteners have been proved to cause cancer in animals but not in humans (in limited quantities). The FDA has approved and prescribed a recommended acceptable daily intake for saccharin, aspartame, sucralose, neotame, acesulfame potassium, and advantame. Still on the fence? Opt for natural options like honey, molasses, and maple syrup to gratify your sweet tooth.
A variety of products tagged 'sugar-free', 'no added sugar', 'diabetic-friendly', or 'diet' are increasingly taking pride of place in our pantries. A major ingredient in these products is artificial or high-intensity sweeteners.
Synthetic substitutes for sugar, artificial sweeteners1 can be found in beverages, baked goodies, salad dressings, dairy products, chewing gums, soft drinks, diet sodas, and fruit juices, among others. They mimic the properties of regular sugar, contributing fewer calories to your diet, and are considered to be a good substitute for sugar.
While each tablespoon of sugar contains 4 calories, artificial sweeteners contain no calories.2 They are also sweeter than regular sugar, which means they can be consumed in comparatively smaller quantities.3
These low-calorie sugar substitutes have also shown positive effects in dental care, in controlling diabetes and reactive hypoglycemia, and in combating obesity.4
In all, artificial sweeteners seem like a gift from heaven, but they do come with a catch! A major, ongoing concern in health and medical communities is about whether artificial sweeteners pose a cancer threat to human beings.
Link To Cancer Risks Of Artificial Sweeteners
Concerns about the carcinogenic effects of artificial sweeteners first arose in the early 1970s when saccharin was linked to bladder cancer in laboratory rats. Several subsequent studies linked the use of artificial sweeteners to cancer in lab animals. As a result, sweeteners like saccharin and cyclamates were banned or labeled as carcinogenic in countries such as Canada and the US.
But, a host of research studies have subsequently shown that although high-dose artificial sweetener use has been linked to cancer in animals, there is no sound scientific evidence to support such a link in humans.5
Several health agencies such as the International Agency for Research on Cancer and the National Cancer Institute endorse this view and have confirmed that approved artificial sweeteners in limited quantities are safe for human consumption.6
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) too has been meticulous in testing and approving the use of artificial sweeteners. Today, six sweeteners are approved by the FDA as safe for human consumption. They are saccharin, aspartame, acesulfame potassium (Ace-K), sucralose, neotame, and advantame.7
Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) For Artificial Sweeteners
To sum up, there is no evidence to establish a carcinogenic risk due to the use of artificial sweeteners in humans.8 But, research studies and health agencies unanimously recommend consumption of artificial sweeteners within certain limits.
For instance, the FDA has prescribed a recommended acceptable daily intake (ADI) level for the six sweeteners it has approved. The ADI is the safe quantity of a sweetener a person can consume in a day over a lifetime.9 These prescribed limits are almost 100 times less than the smallest amount which may cause health issues.10
What Are The Natural Alternatives To Artificial Sweeteners?
The carcinogenic nature of artificial sweeteners is unfounded as of now. But, if the debate makes you uncomfortable, you could look at herbal or natural alternatives.
While artificial sweeteners are derived from chemical synthesis, herbal or natural sweeteners are extracted from plants or natural products and may have some nutritional value.
Honey, nectars, molasses, and maple syrup are recognized as safe for consumption by the FDA.11 But, do remember that these natural products may not offer much of a calorific benefit as against sugar.
On the other hand, they are often sweeter than sugar, which means the quantity consumed will be lesser. In effect, the best way to deal with the usage of sweeteners, both natural or artificial, would be through controlled consumption.
Moderation is indeed the key!

Therapeutic Focus: Cardiovascular
Therapeutic Focus: Cardiovascular
The cardiovascular space has long ranked among the pharma industry's most vibrant. Even by that standard, however, 2015 is shaping up as a blockbuster year, and PCSK9 inhibitors have a lot to do with projections. Estimates for their success could prove even better if they are shown to reduce cardiovascular event risk, as well. Joe Dysart explains
Breakthroughs in cardiovascular research are promising to pump up profits in the sector, as a slate of in-development drugs are being readied for rollout during the next few years. And the major winner could be Merck, whose drug Vytorin significantly reduces the risk of a cardiovascular event, according to study results released in November.
Other potential winners include the developers of PCSK9 inhibitors—extremely effective cholesterol-lowering drugs designed for the estimated 20% of patients who cannot stomach statins, the current treatment standard for lowering cholesterol. Still other victors could be makers of blood thinners, who have secured a number of industry-favorable rulings from the FDA over the course of the past year.
In the short term, the drug that could make the biggest splash in the cardiovascular sector is Vytorin. Results from the IMPROVE-IT study released last November found that patients taking Vytorin experienced a 6.4% reduced risk of cardiovascular event. (See related story, here.)
"The study is the first to show that adding a non-statin drug [Zetia] to a statin [Zocor] to improve cholesterol levels can help patients with specific heart problems do better," states Christopher Cannon, lead author of the study and a professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School and physician at Brigham and Women's Hospital.
Lori Mosca, a professor of medicine at Columbia University Medical Center and director of preventive cardiology at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, agrees. "These study results will help expand our treatment options for high-risk ACS patients, especially among those who are intolerant of or who do not achieve desired results with intense statin therapy," she states.
The IMPROVE-IT study also found that Vytorin users not only lowered their risk of heart attack by 14% but also lowered their risk of ischemic stroke by 21%, according to Cannon.
All told, the cheery results could spike Merck's revenues by as much as $500 million annually once the drug's label is updated to reflect the data, according to Leon Henderson-MacLennan, a medical adviser at inThought Research Group. But the possibility of all that froth comes with one big caveat. "In order to get to these lofty goals, we have to do a heck of a lot better in terms of compliance rates, in the first place," he tells MM&M. "We already lag in that regard."
A Morningstar analysis released in October with respect to Vytorin was also guardedly optimistic. It anticipated that the IMPROVE-IT study would spike sales "slightly" for Vytorin in 2015 as well as in 2016. That analysis notes, however, that the drug will be exposed to generic competition by 2017, which will most likely further dilute the impact of the IMPROVE-IT study.
Meanwhile, similar hopes for sales spikes are pinned on a new class of drugs designed to reduce cholesterol for patients who cannot take statins: PCSK9 inhibitors. These drugs, which block the PCSK9 protein, have reduced LDL cholesterol counts to as low as 25mg/dL in clinical tests. They are currently being developed by a number of big players, including Amgen, Pfizer and the team of Sanofi and Regeneron.
The drugs could provide relief to as many as 20% of patients who are statin-intolerant—that is, to patients who have experienced side effects like muscle fatigue and impaired cognition, according to research at The Rockefeller University.
A Jefferies survey released in March predicted that sales of PCSK9 inhibitors could hit $5 billion annually when they eventually do reach the market. But once again, Henderson-MacLennan sounds a cautious if not overtly skeptical note. He believes that that kind of sales volume is possible, but only if patients actually buy and take the PCSK9s that their doctors prescribe for them. "I think that the PCSK9s will prove welcome additions to the armamentarium," he says.
Battling to bring the first PCSK9 to market are partners Sanofi and Regeneron, who brought back stunning results from six Phase-III trials of their PCSK9, alirocumab. Those results were released at the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions in November. In clinical trials, more than 500 patients achieved LDL cholesterol levels lower than 25mg/dL, according to Jennifer Robinson, director of the prevention intervention center and a professor in the departments of epidemiology and medicine at the University of Iowa's College of Public Health.
Sanofi and Regeneron spokesmen say that they planned to have submitted alirocumab for licensing by the FDA and European agencies before the close of 2014. They were also planning to fast-track the review process in the US by employing a Priority Review voucher that they had purchased from BioMarin for $67.5 million. A Morningstar analysis released in November describes the initial data on alirocumab as "strong," which Morningstar says should give the Sanofi and Regeneron partners added pricing power and market penetration.
Meanwhile, competitor Amgen has its own PCSK9—evolocumab—which is already up for licensing review in Europe and the US. Amgen says that it is banking on a favorable US decision by August of this year. The Morningstar analysis estimates peak sales at $5 billion.
One of the factors behind such optimistic sales projections for the PCSK9s is that test results have been so head-turning that cardiologists are already primed to start prescribing the drugs. Indeed, a Jefferies survey of 50 cardiologists in 2014 found that those doctors are ready to incorporate the unproven PCSK9s into their standards of care for high-risk patients.
Specifically, the Jefferies survey indicated that doctors expected to prescribe PCSK9s to 10% to 23% of their high-risk patients before cardiovascular outcome data is even tallied. These estimates would rise to 29% to 37% of patients if the drugs were shown to have a cardiovascular benefit.
Other potential shifts in the cardiovascular market to monitor include one from AstraZeneca, which won FDA licensing for its lipid-regulator Epanova this past year, and another from Merck, which won approval for its thrombotic cardiovascular event reducer, Zontivity.
"This approval is a significant milestone for AstraZeneca, as it strengthens our existing portfolio of cardiovascular medicines," states Briggs Morrison, EVP, global medicines development and chief medical officer at AstraZeneca.
Eugene Braunwald, a physician who has studied Zontivity, adds that "a new treatment option like Zontivity is an important advance that can help to lower that risk for appropriate patients taking aspirin or clopidogrel or both."
Les Funtleyder, healthcare portfolio manager at E Squared, likes yet another heart drug, LCZ696. It's currently under development at Novartis and is designed to slow cardiac decline for patients suffering from chronic heart failure. LCZ696 reduced the risk of sudden cardiovascular death by 20% compared to those who took enalapril, in a Phase-III trial. "I'm excited about Novartis's new heart-failure drug LCZ696," Funtleyder says.
Meanwhile, blood-thinner makers have been securing a number of favorable FDA and other federal agency rulings during the past year, readying the market for growth this year. AstraZeneca, for example, was cleared of allegations by the US Department of Justice last summer that it attempted to tamper with test data results for its anti-platelet drug Brilinta.
"We have always had absolute confidence in the integrity of the PLATO trial and we are proud of the important benefit Brilinta offers to patients around the world," states AZ CEO Pascal Soriot.
Even so, Funtleyder believes that the exuberance over the ruling could be short-lived. "I don't see Brilinta increasing much, as there is generic competition," he notes.
Meanwhile, partners Bristol-Myers Squibb and Pfizer received a boost for their anticoagulant Eliquis with a number of new-use approvals. Last March, a new market for the drug was opened when the FDA approved the use of Eliquis to reduce the risk of blood clots in patients who have undergone hip- or knee-replacement surgery. Additionally, Eliquis was approved by the FDA for use as an anticlotting treatment for deep-vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, a move interpreted by Zacks Equity Research as a "huge positive" for the drug's sales. Yet another use for the drug—for the treatment of DVT and PE—was approved in Europe.
All told, all the additional uses helped spike year-over-year sales of Eliquis for the third quarter of 2014 to $175 million. "We achieved significant progress in our pipeline and saw strong in-market performance for key products including Eliquis," says BMS CEO Lamberto Andreotti. Indeed, the Morningstar analysis describes Eliquis as a "likely blockbuster," which is aided by "one of the most powerful sales forces in the world."
Another pair of new-use winners were Bayer and Janssen Pharmaceuticals, which secured an additional use for anticoagulant Xarelto from the FDA. It was approved to reduce the risk of stroke and systemic embolism. The approval offers patients "a new option to reduce stroke risk," states Gerald Naccarelli, chief of the division of cardiology at Penn State's College of Medicine.
A final encouraging FDA ruling went Boehringer Ingelheim's way. The FDA found in October that BI's anticoagulant Pradaxa significantly reduces the risk of stroke and intracranial bleeding. Additionally, Pradaxa turned in a 14% better survival rate than warfarin. Overall, the study confirmed that Pradaxa's hoped-for benefits were documented in "real world general practice," according to JЪrg Kreuzer, vice president of BI's medicine therapeutic area cardiovascular.
Adds Funtleyder: "On Eliquis and the factor Xa class like Xarelto and Pradaxa, they probably gain share due to the move away from warfarin rather than because of label expansions." And why is that important? "Warfarin is one of the top causes of drug-related hospitalizations," he explains, "so the sooner we can improve on that, the better."

NPR.org » Trent Reznor: 'I'm Not The Same Person I Was 20 Years Ago'
Jared Sperli stashed this in nin
Stashed in: Aging
Trent Reznor is known as a detail guy: a meticulous composer and manipulator of sound, layers upon layers of it. From his band's genesis 25 years ago, the leader of Nine Inch Nails has been known for songs of deep, menacing pain, rage and self-destruction. Today, Reznor's dark days of alcohol and drug abuse are behind him — and he finds himself, at 48, with a wife and two young kids.
The new Nine Inch Nails album, Hesitation Marks, ends a hiatus that Reznor announced in 2009 — and, as he tells NPR's Melissa Block, he sees the new record in part as a reaction to his earlier self. He recently spoke with Block about reacting to criticism, working with Lindsey Buckingham and the reasons he thinks opening for Guns N' Roses in Germany was a big mistake. Hear the radio version at the audio link, and read more of their conversation below.
I'm thinking about your new song "Everything," which starts with this really kind of triumphant declaration? What's the first line of that song?
" 'I survived everything.' I think? I haven't listened to it for a few days."
It absolutely is. And in the course of the song you say, "I've become something else."
"Yeah, I meant that song to feel kind of absurd. You know, it's an arrogant, bold statement that might appear defiant but is actually, in my opinion, kind of self-destructive. And by the end of the song, when it doesn't resolve as nice and rosy with me running through a field of dandelions, clouds come over and there's a sense of getting what you asked for.
"My life has been many examples of shortsighted goals that I thought would fix things. If there's something broken inside me, if there's a hole in there, I thought if I could just write a good song someday, then I'd be OK. You know, if I could just get a record deal, or if I could just be onstage in front of people I'd never seen before and be validated by them. I feel very fortunate that I've been able to achieve those things, and there have been moments of feeling good about it, but it didn't fix things, you know? It wasn't the solution to me feeling spiritually complete or whole."
This song does start out in such a sunny way, with all these joyful harmonies. I'm sure you know there was a disgruntled fan who thought this was entirely too poppy — maybe a softer, happier side of Trent Reznor — and put together an animated video of you riding a unicorn under a rainbow with birds flying by. You're saying, though, that's ignoring what's really going on in this song?
"That certainly wasn't anything that crossed my mind when I was working on this. You know, I still think in terms of album formats: collections of songs and how they relate to each other and how they integrate and tell a bigger story than what's contained in each little four-minute parcel. But when you've been around for a while and you've created, essentially, a brand, that has a certain level of expectation. And it encourages you to not color outside the lines if you pay too much attention to what you expect that fan base wants from you. I think many, many artists have suffered an artistic death by doing just that. I think we live in very dangerous times right now with the Internet and the feedback loop you can get from people who somehow feel their fingers are connected to an impulse — first second of hearing something, I need to write some reaction that gets blasted out to the world."
What did you think of the video?
"I saw about the first five seconds of it, and it lessened my faith that I am reaching an audience that is open-minded enough to understand what I'm trying to do. That's what I thought off the bat. And then I thought, 'I really don't care what you think.' We wouldn't be sitting here doing an interview, because my career would have been over 24 years ago, if I'd have listened to what I think people want to hear from me. [But] this is just my off-the-cuff thesis here. I'm sure it's riddled with holes that I'll be reminded of on the Internet any minute now."
If you choose to read it.
"When we started out, you would get feedback from fan mail, if you dared to read it. And I remember early versions of [online] bulletin boards, where it was exciting to see that somewhere, digitally, people were talking about your band in little chat rooms and things like that. When we got up to whenever Twitter came out, I took it upon myself to try to direct market to people. Myself, Rob Sheridan — my art director and collaborator on pretty much everything creative — we spent an enormous amount of time really studying the behavior of people: how people wanted to consume music, how they learned about music, what formats they liked, what felt insincere to them, what they felt the value of music might be. Really just watching. But it tuned us in to that feedback loop of commentary, and you can easily go down rabbit holes with niches of people that are unpleasable, regardless of what you could possibly do as an artist. My brain is wired to follow the negative down there and try to engage people and defend and fight, but that's an utter waste of time. I left that era of my life realizing that just because everybody now has the ability to be a self-publisher and broadcast every whim and thought to the world, it doesn't mean that that opinion is necessarily valid or needs to be consumed or listened to or paid attention to. I think — and I've said this recently in the press — as an artist it's an incredibly dangerous time to pay attention, too much, to what other people think. Because it inevitably leads to either homogenous, crowd-pleasing, meandering work, or it leads to something that's just as insincere — just to go against that."
You're known for really intricately composed, crafted, layered songs. Walk me through what's going on in the new song "Copy of A." It starts out with this repetitive synth pattern, right?
"Yeah, that's five 16th notes with a rest in there, so it's hard to tell where the downbeat is. I like the way it flips around and doesn't always land on the beat in an expected way. This song is really about repetition and starting to layer small elements of rhythm, percussion and treatment of vocal into something that is meant to feel hypnotic but slightly unnerving. Not comfortable, not EDM dance-tent, wave-your-hands-in-the-air, but more something that keeps you on the edge of your seat, that doesn't feel quite right."
So the intent is to be unsettling?
"In this particular song, yeah. It's about tension. It's about layers of complexity that don't feel showy, that don't feel like, 'Look at all the things I can put in here.' Things suddenly creep in. If you were to study this track or listen to the multitracks of what made it up, there's a lot more in there than what it sounds like. It's meant to feel understandable and minimal in its surface."
Good interview. But clearly no one is the same person they were 20 years ago.

I really like the new functionality. As I looked into the data I realized my inquiries from my website show up as a blank for listing site. I went through the data and cleaned it up by modifying the listing site on the original inquiry. While this changed the "Inquiry Count" column it didn't change the "Booking Count" (e.g. I have bookings from these inquiries that I modified but they don't show as bookings, the still show in the "direct" column.
I also noticed that the data for inquiries where no property is selected don't show on the report but I would expect them to show up since they are inquiries that didn't result in a booking.
Finally, the color legends don't seem to come across for all listing sites.
Thanks in advance, let me know if I can help debug this.

text: I used to buy "Balance Bars". I bought them for years. Then one day I noticed their proud announcement of a "bold new look". That new look went beyond the box. The US RDA percentage of every vitamin and mineral went from 25% to 15%. They became a nutrition bar that, in its "new and improved" state, was now half as good for you. I stopped buying them. What's my point? It's this. Windows 7 is Microsoft's Balance Bar. It's got a bold new look from XP, but does half as much. Actually that's not true… in order to be an accurate comparison Balance Bars would have to come in a package the size of a small sedan. Here are some fixes, made by other people, to help with what Microsoft inexplicably ruined. Some of these you already know about I'm sure, but some you may not. 1. Add "Copy To/ Move To" to Right Click. Why was this removed? Who can say? Maybe with 7 they were just trying to make something the opposite of XP. Either that or they were just thinking of ways to make 7 worse. Maybe both? Add Copy To / Move To on Windows 7 or Vista Right-Click Menu 2. Right Click Toggle Thumbnails. This is a great example of Microsoft's half-assed approach to 7. With XP you could have some folders use icons and others, like picture folders, use thumbnails. Not with 7… with 7 it's all or nothing. Either you get all icons or all thumbnails. While this made it great for the programmers (because it's lazy and sloppy) it absolutely sucks for the end user. This doesn't give you the option to have both, like XP, it just makes it easier to switch between one and the other. How to Enable or Disable Thumbnail Previews Quickly Using Right-Click Menu in Windows Vista and Windows 7 - The Winhelponline Blog 3. Remember Folder Sizes and Locations. Remember how XP would remember a particular folders size and location when you opened it, and it would open in the same place and size every time? And then came 7. 7 can only remember the size and location of the last folder opened. I'm not sure what 7 is doing with the 4x more memory needed over XP, but it sure isn't going towards remembering things. I think the term here is half-assed. And lazy. ShellFolderFix - Manage folder window positions/size - Windows 7 Help Forums 4. Change Start-Up Sound. "Apple doesn't let you, so what the hell, let's copy them." I think that's how the conversation went. Besides… there's just a little too much P in your PC already mister. WinAero: Startup Sound Changer 5. Fix The Start Menu. Remember when the Start menu didn't absolutely, completely, 100% suck? It can be that way again. When people tell you to stop complaining and just install this, it would be like a car dealer selling you a car with octagon shaped wheels and telling you to stop bitching and just buy the the round wheel covers and put them on. Problem solved, round wheels. The problem with Windows 7 (and now 8 which is even worse) is that it already uses 5x more resources. Having to add even more stuff that uses even more resources just to get back what you already had is just insulting. And it shows Microsoft could care less. Welcome to Classic Shell 6. 15 File Limit Fix. I use Foobar as my media player (I've been using it for years and not just because WMP 12 is, as is par for the course with Windows 7, total crap) and when I click "Play All" in a folder with more than 15 songs Windows just sits there staring at me like a drooling idiot. This fixes that. Context Menu Items Missing - Fix when more than 15 Files are Selected - Windows 7 Help Forums 7. Replace Windows Media Player. Windows made 2 good versions of its media player in my opinion. Windows 98 had 6.4 and XP had 10. With version 12 I think they were trying to see just how bad they could make it. Q: How bad did they make it? A: Pretty f'n bad. Foobar 2000 for audio. foobar2000 K-Lite with Media Player Classic for video. (You'll notice it's based on version 6.4) Download K-Lite Codec Pack 8. Restore Quick Launch. When I was first experiencing Windows 7 in all its terribleness I remarked, in these forums, about the missing quick launch. Somebody told me that the quick launch was for lazy, stupid people. I use a lot of portable versions of software. So according to this person, the "smart" thing to do was to go Start/Computer/D Drive/ Portables folder/ Application Folder/double click .exe, and that the "smart" thing to do was to do that every single time. Personally I prefer to put a shortcut in the quick launch. I guess I'm just lazy. Add the Quick Launch Bar to the Taskbar in Windows 7 9. Share ALL Files and Folders. Have you ever wanted to share your files between computers? Did you ever follow Microsoft's directions how to do it but still could only share your "public" folders. Here's how to do it. This is a thread I started before. http://windows7forums.com/windows-7-support/86301-how-share-folders-finally.html [FONT=&] What I'm still looking for is a way to actually organize files and folders. Windows 7 is completely useless at this. These are some movies I ripped and put on an external hard drive. The one on the left is from Windows 7. The other is XP. Both are set up as "Thumbnails/Sort By Name/Show In Groups" [/FONT] [FONT=&] A few things to notice here with Windows 7. 1. That infernal green bar that takes about a minute as it crawls ever slower across the screen. Why does it go slower the longer it goes? That doesn't even make sense. For the record, it only takes XP about 2 seconds to show this. So much for 7 being faster I guess. 2. Microsoft thinks an empty folder is an icon, but a folder with a piece of paper in it is a thumbnail. 3. Windows 7's grouping is worthless. Do you know what the difference is between A-H and no grouping? None... there's no difference at all. They're both giant unsorted blocks. Look at the 2 choices and tell me which one you prefer. If you say 7, you and I both know you're lying. Think A-H, I-P, Q-Z isn't so bad, look at this... [/FONT] [FONT=&] This is a folder with my album covers in it. Imagine trying to find a cover for a Devo album in a block of 939 files. A-H show Microsoft has nothing but contempt for the people who use their software. It's the sort of thing you would see in Windows 95 maybe, but to go from what they had in XP to this is M$ sticking their middle finger in your face and telling you to F**k Off. All of this is such a huge leap backwards it renders the whole computer useless for anything but Facebooking, which it what 7 was made for. It's a dumbed down experience that leaves people with triple digit IQ's shaking their heads. The thing that kills me is that they went out of their way to remove even the most basic things. Things that were already there. 7 uses 4x more memory, but that extra memory serves no purpose. It all goes towards idiotic flash meant to catch the attention of people attracted to shiny things. It uses 5x more hard drive space but is less capable. [/FONT] List of features removed in Windows Vista [FONT=&]List_of_features_removed_in_Windows_7 List of features removed in Windows 8 I know that most of you will think I'm just a Luddite or what ever clever name you can think of, but to me, people who not only accept but appreciate that fact that Windows keeps becoming less user friendly and more controlled are no different than the Sheeple who continue to buy Apple's only product in 4 different sizes 3x a year. And don't kid yourself... this is Microsoft's ultimate goal. To create a universe where you can only use the hardware THEY say you can use, only use the software THEY say you can use and do with your computer only what THEY say you can do. I don't see this as any kind of upgrade or advancement. [/FONT]

Someday, when it won't be an issue of spoilers, I'll be returning to this lovely book to do an analysis. But for the time being, I've posted a fanboy's tribute to the end of a great series at Tor.com as the end of this year's extended Steampunk Romance and Erotica focus, A Tribute to Gail Carriger. See y'all in April.
Last Call for the Parasol: Timeless by Gail Carriger
Fiction series should be like guests. There comes a point in the evening when everyone knows the conversation has died, the hostess is yawning, and someone has just said, "Well..." Sadly, there is often someone in the room who knows the truth, but wants to avoid it. They don't get out enough. They don't want to go home. They're enjoying the company. They're socially obtuse. For whatever reason, someone starts the conversation up again.
It's awkward, because we all know it's over. Sometimes this happens in the doorway, as guests are leaving. A witty remark gets made, and banter ensues. Significant others glare, or roll their eyes. The party has jumped the shark.
Thankfully, as anyone who's been to one of her parties can attest, Gail Carriger knows how to handle a party. And she knows when it's time to shut it down.
I love the Parasol Protectorate. As literary parties go, it's been a blast. And while I'm very sad to see it all come to an end, I'm glad Carriger isn't stringing this one out. With Timeless, Carriger concludes a series many of us have grown to love, all the while struggling to explain to others what we were reading:
"It's a paranormal romance . . . but not like Twilight. And it's a steampunk adventure . . . but not like Wild, Wild, West. It's like . . . it's like . . ."
It's Bram Stoker, Wilkie Collins, and Jane Austen playing Dungeons and Dragons with Terry Pratchett for a DM. It's like Being Human if the show were crossed with Sherlock and Fawlty Towers. It's like Underworld with bustles and lace instead of tight leather. We shove the book into your hands at this point and assure you, "Trust me, you'll enjoy it."
And now it's coming to an end.

I am very sad. I am attending to my dear blue tick hound, Sheba. We found out Monday she has a serious disease. After she got a couple of shots and put on meds, it looked like she was getting better, but the past couple of days she has taken a nose dive. I am still giving her the meds and giving her water and broth by large dropper.
Hubby is on duty today, but thank God he can respond from home. This would be too hard to deal with alone.
Sheba has always been a great dog. Even today, she got up, fell to the ground, then got back up and went outside to pee. I know this has really hard for her, but she has never had a "accident" in the house. I guess she wasn't going to start now.
She has always given love and kindness. Our grand daughter has grown up with her and she was always loving and gentle with her. Grand daughter gave her a toy a long time ago and Sheba has always loved it. She is laying on the floor with her head on it now.
I still have to follow the Christmas plans, but it is like all the joy has been taken out for me. So I put on a "happy" face and carry on, but my heart is breaking. It was so sudden and unexpected. Just had to vent.

Value-packed and Ready to Perform
The Ibanez AC240EOPN Artwood acoustic-electric guitar hits all the right notes. Acoustically, the AC240EOPN delivers big dreadnought tone that's nicely focused by the guitar's mahogany back and sides.

Sweetwater knows that the choice of top wood can make or break the sound of an acoustic guitar. For the AC240EOPN Artwood acoustic-electric, Ibanez chose a solid mahogany top. Chosen as much for its look as its tone, solid mahogany has a well-rounded, rich sound with excellent sustain and tonal depth. And because it's a solid-wood top, the tone will age gracefully, with enhanced harmonics and greater tonal balance as the years go by.Artwood: high-quality tonewoods and amazing value

COACH Phil Scolari will be the first victim of the brutal post-mortem that will occur after Brazil ended its World Cup with a 3-0 loss to the Netherlands in the playoff for third.
Brazilian newspaper 'Folha de Sao Paolo' has quoted CBF (Brazil Football Federation) president Jose Maria Marin saying Scolari's position is "untenable" - Marin was scathing after the 7-1 semi-final loss.
Other media outlets have reported that Jose Mourinho is the no.1 target for Russia 2018 for the CBF, who are prepared to wait for the Chelsea boss.
Meanwhile Barcelona full-back Dani Alves said that a foreigner might be the best way forward - Brazil has never had a 'gringo' in charge of its national team.
"That (my future) has to be decided by the confederation president (Marin)," Scolari said.
Focus will quickly turn to next June's 12-team Copa America, while the next will follow in 2016 (in USA) to celebrate the tournament's centenary.
Expectations will also be high for Brazil's U-23 team for the Rio 2016 Olympics.
The World Cup could not have finished in more contrasting fashion for the losing semi-finalists, with 'Selecao' jeered off the pitch by disillusioned home fans, after they conceded 14 goals in seven games.
Dutch coach Louis van Gaal will be unveiled as Manchester United boss, having enhanced his massive reputation, with former Socceroos boss Guus Hiddink to take over the national post.
Netherlands could even afford to bring on no.3 keeper Michel Vorm in the dying stages, meaning they used all 23 players in Brazil.
They lost gun attacker Wesley Sneijder to a hamstring strain in the warm-up, but were two up after 17 minutes against the disorganised hosts.
Robben, who van Gaal said yesterday was "more than welcome" to join him at Old Trafford, was his side's main danger and hailed it the perfect end.
"It was a big honour for us to be here and this was the best way to end this tournament,'' Robben said.
"We also fully deserved this third place the way we played. Nobody expected us to be in the last four."
Scolari made six changes from the 7-1 semi-final farce, with Neymar watching on from the bench, but it made little difference.
It could have turned into a farce if Algerian referee Djamel Haimoudi didn't show Brazil captain Thiago Silva leniency in showing him yellow instead of red for bringing down Arjen Robben _ who was through on goals _ after two minutes.
Haimoudi however erred in awarding a penalty, which Robin van Persie converted, with the foul occurring a metre outside the box.
Originally published as Scolari will be made World Cup victim

I just bought a Beretta and it has a coolant leak coming from the front passenger side of the car in front of the tire. I can't pinpoint so I am going to take it in and have a pressurize cooling system done. My question is this..why would my power steering stop working at the same time the leak is happening..does coolant have anything to do with the steering wheel being hard to turn???
Coolant leak and power steering problems?? on 1995 Chevrolet Beretta
(2) Answers
Leaking coolant on to the belt causing slippage. Possibly leaking out of seam at the radiator.
If your Beretta is leaking coolant, get it in IMMEDIATELY. I took my '94 Beretta into the shop numerous times because of a coolant leak. Both the lower and upper hoses on the radiator had to be replaced. All was good for about two days, then the car's head gasket blew. My advice, make sure they look over EVERYTHING.

Check out the poster and the program here.
Newfoundland and Labrador is a world pioneer in distance education. This pioneering attitude evolved to address geographical challenges in educational delivery. Now that the Internet reaches into every school and government office throughout the province, can this technology be used for regional development? Can the capabilities of the public education sector be leveraged for wider community use? Can we develop and empower a learning attitude in every community of this province? Can we envision a community that has equitable access to all learning opportunities available in the province? Finally, what would be the value or impact on communities if this vision were achieved?
Ann Marie Vaughan, Director of Memorial University's Distance Education and Learning Technologies, doctoral candidate in higher education leadership at the University of Calgary, and a long-time economic development practitioner in Newfoundland and Labrador, will present a vision of the changing way we think about educational delivery and explore how technology can help us address needs in regional development and public policy. She will be joined by two panelists who will bring an "on-the-ground" perspective of how technology can assist with regional development:

Definition of slapdash
slapdash was our Word of the Day on 03/19/2008. Hear the podcast!
Theme music by Joshua Stamper ©2006 New Jerusalem Music/ASCAP
Examples of slapdash in a Sentence
the investigation of the charges against the mayor was slapdash and not very thorough
Did You Know?
The first known use of "slapdash" in English came in 1679 from the British poet and dramatist John Dryden, who used it as an adverb in his play The kind keeper; or Mr. Limberham: "Down I put the notes slap-dash." The Oxford English Dictionary defines this sense in part as "[w]ith, or as with, a slap and a dash," perhaps suggesting the notion of an action (such as painting) performed with quick, imprecise movements. Over 100 years later, the word acquired the adjectival sense with which we are more familiar today, describing something done in a hasty, careless, or haphazard manner.

I can't remember why, but I had called my bank and we got on the subject of recurring monthly charges, and the person on the phone was able to help me stop all of the recurring charges I wanted stopped. I hate it when you fill out an online form for a sample and you get enrolled in a auto-ship program. If you start from the bank, you stop auto charges, just like cutting off the head of the snake.

I need to replace the front brake rotors and pads on my 91 DeVille. How hard a job is this for a reasonably competent do-it-yourself-er? Are there any stumbling blocks to look out for when doing the job?
Its not really that hard. The rear brakes may need a speacial tool that you can get at most auto parts stores. Its a brake cube, you use it to screw in the pistons on the rear calipers rather than compressing them. You can use needle nose pliars as well. If the pistons have a flat surface rather than the noched surface that you would use the cube on then you can compress them. Other than that its really easy, just bleed the brakes and press and release the emergency brake when your done (this adjusts the pistons in the rear calipers).
My DeVille has rear drum brakes. I'm only swapping out the rotors and pads on the fronts; the current rotors are toast; lots of vibration when I step on the brakes. So anything to look out for on the fronts?
Not really, just your standard operation. A lot of times you would want to put a brake silencer on the back of the new pads when you put them on the caliper, I wonder if it's needed though because I was out of the stuff last time I did mine and I haven't heard a peep out of them. Just keep the master cylender full throughout the job so you don't need to bleed all four brakes. IMHO disk brakes are a lot easier to do than drums (not as many parts). If you are compressing the piston with a C-clamp, open the bleeder and compress it before you take anything off. It just decreases the chances of you making the piston go cooked and get jammed.
It won't be hard. Like Krashed said while you are doing so be sure to keep fluid in the MS at all times so you don't end up with air in the lines.
Whether or not you need the brake silencer wont' be determined until you try it, so you might as well just put it on there. The new pads will probably come with either the plastic silencer or the goo. Either on will do fine. The squeal is really just extremly fast, small vibrations that happen when breaking the pads in.
Yeah, disc brakes are easier. Easier system, better braking. Why havn't we moved on? Because they are just soooo much more expensive. Cheap manufacturers...

I am buying a new JRB no sniveller quilt, and I'm a bit confused about their sizing. The regular size is listed as being 78", which would seem long enough for my height of just under 6'. However, they suggest that you buy the large if you are over 5'10", which doesn't really seem to make sense. I can't imagine I would require a 86" quilt (!?). If anyone that has used one of these can give me some feedback that would help.
thanks:-)May 11, 2008 at 4:32 pm #1432767
Not obvious but you lose about 8" when you tie the bottom to create the foot box. I am about 5'6" and have the long version , a few inches longer than I need but handy to temporarily put my head inside (I have to bend a bit for that) to warm up.

Thanks Franco, I'll probably be going with the large. I plan on layering under this quilt for the shoulder seasons too.May 11, 2008 at 7:35 pm #1432803

Franco has it mostly right…. Forming the foot box will take up 6-8 inches of length…. Also, the forming of the shoulder pockets and having suficient length to reach the ground beyound the shoulders is a factor (Hammockers up to 6 foot can get by with a regular length…. because the hammock rises beyound the shoulders to meet the top quilt where the ground does not…)
Also some folk at 5-11 to 6-0 feel they can use a regular…. However, their sleep style may be more open and or they may actually pull up on the footend and actually compress the foot box loft in doing so…. The practical limit of the No Sniveller for ground dwellers is 5-10.
PS If you have not noticed JRB's Trail Days sale is again open to all, via the web, and the No Sniveller is $ 40 off….regular and long.May 11, 2008 at 8:12 pm #1432807
Can't beat the advice from the makers (and users as it is with most "cottage" manufacturers)…
For the extra few ounces it's hard to go wrong getting the long one. I move around a lot during my sleep so the extra bit is nice.
BTW, the loft is pretty accurate if not a bit conservative.
Another reason why I have this quilt is to use it in winter as a layer under my generous cut rain jacket (makes me look like a blimp,but very warm) and as a top bag for my Ultralite sleeping bag. I figure that it is more versatile than a heavier bag and a down jacket combo.
For the three seasons it has replaced the WM highlite. The JRB is heavier but so much nicer for my style of sleeping. Works well as a serape at dinner time.
Maybe you should consider getting the hood as well. I wish I had .

I am 5 11 and 1/2 I use a regular and can not see why I would need it any longer. I can stick my head under it. Franco has great advice (he is the man) you might want a long. I normally by long sleeping bags but have not needed it at all with this quilt. I have had mine a year I also have the down to earth converter. Now I want the Rocky MT Version as I can not push mine in a hammock much past 30. On the ground I have been in it a 20. I wish they where on sale!
Every BlessingMay 12, 2008 at 12:41 am #1432843
Alan, at best my oppinion is just that, but thanks….
Pan, apart from making them, would have a much better idea (from customer's feedback) than anyone else.
But I am glad you have the Down To Earth converter. Naming that has been my only sensible contribution to JRB, so far.
Also keep in mind that I have this idea to use it as an overbag.

October 1, 2009
"Hey, I'm home!" Jared called from the hall. The cacophony of crinkles from his plastic grocery bags followed him step by step with a massive finale when he tossed them down onto the counter. Looking down the dark hall, he saw the bedroom light on. "Sandy?"
"I'm in here!" she called abruptly.
Jared sighed and started to poke through the bags. It figured that she wouldn't jump up to help him. Unless it was a matter of life or death, she probably could care less. Sorting through the bags, he found the perishables and took them out. He piled bags of frozen green beans and TV dinner boxes into his arms and went to the ice box to put them away.
"Are you okay?"
There was a long pause before she answered. "Yeah."
The way she said it seemed odd to him. She sounded distracted; not "I'm cramming for a final" distracted, either. Her tone was a bit sharp and also kind of directly, as opposed to her normal, thick quality. Is something wrong? he wondered. He considered going in there and asking, but he didn't have the slightest inkling what he'd be walking into. Maybe he should just wait; if she wanted to talk to him she'd say so… Right?
Now, he felt odd. One thing he hated more than anything else in the world was being separated from the only other person in the place and not knowing it she was thinking something bad about him. He continued to stack canned soup and beans in the cupboards, but he wasn't actually conscious of where and what. This was going to bug him no matter how hard he tried not to think about it. This is ridiculous…has is really gotten so bad that we're worried about fighting?
In Jay's opinion, they had a good relationship. They'd been together for a year and a half and through the worst tragedy of Jared's life. He'd always known that it made they're bond stronger, but how long could they really keep it that way? These days, they stayed away from each other more, kept secrets, fought more. The differences between them started to wear down—if not on Jared then on Sandy. They weren't exactly a stereotypical, perfect couple. Sandy had looks, style, vanity and a closed mind: all things that made a super model or celebrity. Jared was a smart, artistic guy with a lot of compassion and a goofy grin—a veritable outcast in the superficial college environment.
It seemed like the things they used to understand about each other were driving them insane. With a quiet grumble, he bunched up the plastic bags and stuffed them into the recycle bin.
When he entered the bed room, he saw Sandy lying on the bed with her lamp on, reading a book. She looked up for a moment, then back to Baby You're the Best, by Norman Patrick.
"What took you so long?" she asked.
Midway through slinging his book bag over his shoulder and putting it down, Jared stopped and stared at her for a moment. "There was a long line at the supermarket," he stated flatly.
He blinked a few times, a little confused. "'Oh' what?"
Now, her eyes slid up to him again, narrowed, and she closed her book in her lap. "I just said 'oh'…like a quiet, thoughtful noise."
"No, when you say it like that, you have your own ideas about 'what took me so long.' What?"
Raised eyebrows, cocked head, she was a little too nonchalant to be completely unknowing. Jared didn't ever mean to pick a fight, but Sandy did. He could tell just by the set of her jaw that she was baiting him, provoking him to anger. Falling silent, he looked away just as she crossed her arms in front of his chest.
"Just figured you might have been having trouble finding the right shampoo."
"Oh my—" Before he could shout at her, he covered his mouth and took five deep breaths. I'm too tired for this…too tired for this… Pulling off his jacket, he glared at her through the wardrobe mirror. "You're still mad about that? I used your shampoo, that doesn't make me Charles Manson."
When she rolled her eyes, he felt a rush of frustration with her. "I didn't say I was mad, it's just…that's woman's shampoo. Why do you want to use it?"
His shirt came off over his head and he started to undo his pants. He needed to keep his hands busy so that they wouldn't shake with his fatigue and irritation. "I told you," he began calmly, "Jensen said he uses the same shampoo as you and his hair looks awesome. So I thought I'd try it."
"Oh, because Jensen said so."
"I didn't say that." And there it was. The argument was initiated with the assumption and putting words where they weren't.
"That's what you meant! Jay, do you have any idea why Jensen looks so good, so pretty? Because he's gay. Faggots like him doll themselves up just like women so that they can attract men, it's just—"
"Nope!" Jared turned on her now, a hand raised to request her silence before he snapped. "No, we are not going to talk about this. I don't want to hear your self-righteous judgments on homosexuality, so just shut up before you start."
Putting her book aside, Sandy stood and took a few steps around the bed. "Listen, Jared! Listen to me, I know what I'm talking about."
"You do not! You have no idea. You think that just because a person has different tastes, he's going to hell. And don't you dare call him a faggot. Who the hell do you think you are?"
She was turning red in a short hesitation, her furious eyes glaring up at his face. Her head was tipped back so far that her hair was frilled in the back. "I am your girlfriend," she snapped like the wife in a 1930's black and white film. "Damn it, you said that you love me, so how does it make sense that you won't trust me on something like this?"
"You're being irrational…He's my friend! And you just can't—""I didn't say he wasn't. I have nothing against Jensen, personally, but he's a bad influence on you, I mean come on! You spend more time with him than you ever had with me in one sitting." Her voice was going high-pitched—something she usually avoided happening at all costs. "Hell, we used to get along before you meant this freaking fairy!"
"Shut up!" He practically screamed at her. Shivering, his entire body was strung up like a bowstring. "FUCK! I'm so too tired for this." Running a hand over his brow, he held it and pressed against his forehead, trying to alleviate his sudden migraine. Don't scream, don't scream…She has her opinions, she doesn't deserve to be screamed at… "You know what? I'm sleeping on the couch."

It's nice to write great content for the web. However, it is more important to get it read by your audiences and ranked by search engines. Titles are one of the most crucial aspects of a blog that add to its selling value. A good title can make the difference between opening a link and ignoring it. Titles are extremely important in search engines, on social media platforms and in email marketing. Here are a few tips to help you write the perfect title for your next blog post:
1. Know your Audience – It is important to know who you are writing for so that you can pick words and phrases that will appeal perfectly to them. Try and get some demographics and social information about your audiences so that your title hits the target aptly.
2. Work Out A Draft – Before you finalize the title for your post, begin with a rough working title. This should be related to the subject you are writing for and must include the main words you want to highlight. Once you have a working title, leading it to perfection won't be difficult.
3. Accuracy is Important – If your title does not reflect the content that the reader should expect, you will be misleading your audiences. Keep the title accurate so that the reader knows what is following in the content and your blog is read by the desired audiences. Respecting the reader and his time are important rules to follow while writing your title.
4. Keep It Short – The size of the title must be long enough to convey a curiosity level and short enough to fit on search engine results. Ideally, your title should be less than 65 characters and about 4-5 words.
5. Embrace Technology – Due to the advent of the internet, you will find a lot of help online for your titles. You can use a blog title generator to get some ideas for your blog and find suitable titles that will work online.
6. Optimize it for SEO – Try and include one keyword in your blog title so that your blog shows up in search results. When you make your title search-friendly, you have a better chance of being read and shared.
Finding a blog title may seem like a challenging task at first but once you understand the process and take help of blog title generators, you will become a pro at writing effective blog titles. Happy writing!

Fabric nightclub is today facing closure after four drug-related deaths at the venue.
Police have called for a review of its licence, saying that over the past three years, eight people have collapsed, four of whom died, at the Farringdon club after taking MDMA, ecstasy and other drugs.
In the last incident in September, an 18-year-old girl fell ill and later died in hospital after buying MDMA inside the venue — twice voted the world's best club.
Islington council's licensing committee is due to review Fabric's licence tonight.
In a police report submitted to the committee, Pc Steven Harrington said: "It attracts clientele from all over Europe and it would seem that the immaturity or lifestyle of these patrons leads to them becoming actively involved in the taking of illegal drugs and this could account for the disproportionate and wholly unacceptable number of deaths and near death incidents at the venue."
Stripping Fabric of its licence is being "seriously considered", the police said. They are demanding the club increases security, including using sniffer dogs. Police said Fabric is one of the capital's most troublesome clubs, with 12 drug possession or dealing offences for MDMA, ecstasy and Ketamine recorded between April and October this year.
Tonight's licence review has sparked floods of letters from members of the public, both for and against closure.
One local resident described watching a group of men "out of their box on something more than alcohol" trying to climb fences. But another neighbour wrote: "Keep it open... this is the funkyness of the area we embraced."
Famous for house and techno nights, Fabric has been crowned best club in the world twice by DJ Magazine.
A spokesman for Fabric declined to comment.Reuse content

I stayed here on christmas night. I have stayed at Mantra properties before but wasnt sure what to expect. We stayed in a one bedroom apartment. The room was fantastic along with the nightly rate. The lounge room was massive with a balcony overlooking the park. The room was very spacious with a big seperate bathroom/laundry. Very modern. The view could have been better but hey, i wasnt spending my time staring out the window! The shower was a bit grimy but aside from that the place was clean. The parking was $30 which i think is overpriced but thats the standard across hotels generally. I would definately come back - the location was good aswell because it was on the fringe of the city, not to far to walk to Collingwood/Fitzroy or the City centre.

Chapter 3.3Mature
"This is my fault," she whispered.
"It's not, Beth," Daniel said without looking at her. "This is a... This is an allergic reaction, for want of a better word."
"To what?"
"The soul of one of the white Paraa."
"But, how...?"
"I don't know. I intend to ask him. The only mind he touched was yours."
"I'm not a..."
"Exactly. You would have been aware of your magic abilities long before Robert brought them to the surface."
Beth didn't know how to form the question to ask what he meant. All she could do was watch Daniel try to bring Lucius back to consciousness and hold Isabella's hand throughout the whole thing. She could tell Isabella was fighting tears.
When Lucius' shuddering lessened, Beth sat up a little more. She relaxed completely when he moved a little of his own accord. He mumbled some things, though she couldn't understand what he was saying.
"Da'lela," was the first intelligible thing he said.
The bright flash of light was very similar to the fire when Lucius appeared.
"Lucius!" exclaimed a female voice.
A flash of purple streaked through the air as the woman pushed Daniel out of the way. The woman pulled Lucius' head into her lap, stroking his hair.
"Oh, my baby," the woman murmured. "What have you been up to now?"
Lucius let out a weak chuckle, looking up at the girl above him. He spoke to her in a language that Beth didn't recognise. The woman replied in the same tongue. A small grin spread across Lucius' lips.
Beth had to look away, recognising the intimacy between the two of them. It made her ache even more for Robert to come back.
Lucius said something else, a short sentence. The woman held him sit up. Beth looked more closely at the woman. Her hair was long and wavy, and a dark purple like the one that she'd seen while she had been unconscious. It was then that Beth realised she'd been inside Lucius' mind, looking at his memories.
"Lucius, what happened?" Daniel asked him.
Lucius looked up, meeting Beth's eyes squarely. "She's of your line, Daniel."
Daniel froze, staring at him as if he didn't understand.
"She's the mystery child of Tau'ra," Lucius elaborated.
More silence.
"You mean... Tau'ra and Fa'lea...?" Daniel asked numbly.
Lucius nodded.
Beth glanced between everyone as further silence reigned.
"What does that mean?" she asked quietly.
"It means," Lucius said, turning to her, "that you're very special."
