This report presents particulate matter (PM10) and ground‑level ozone concentration maps covering the whole of Europe. The interpolated maps are based on a combination of measurement and regional modelling results. Using measured concentrations as a primary source of information, the report summarizes the methodologies and the methodological choices taken in order to derive such maps.
Application of the Emissions Trading Directive by EU Member States — reporting year 200805 Jan 2009
According to Article 21 of the Emissions Trading Directive, Member States shall report annually on its application. The reporting obligation allows the Commission to continuously follow the implementation of the Directive and provides information for the Commission's review report under Article 30 of the Directive. By late October 2008, Article 21 reports had been received from all Member States. The responses in those reports were assessed by the EEA and its European Topic Centre on Air and Climate Change (ETC/ACC) and compiled into this report.

Europe's environment — The fourth assessment10 Oct 2007
In this report, we underline the changes that have occurred in the environment and socio-economic context to help explain many of the environmental trends that have been observed. We identify successes and improvements but also register old legacies that need further effort such as, in particular, air pollution, water issues and contaminated sites. New threats, which challenge piecemeal solutions and call for integrated strategic measures at European and global levels, are described such as persistent chemicals in the environment, biodiversity loss, sustainable production and consumption and climate change. And a new overview is given of the state of European marine areas and inland seas.

laminate transition
I put down laminate in the family room. When I got to the door to the garage I unscrewed the heavy metal threshold intending to put it back down later. Turns out the laminate raises the edge too much and the door won't close. It also tilts slightly, so planing the door won't fix it. I tried to bend it a little but it's too thick. The only alternative I can think of is to grind 1/8" or so off the edge. Is there a better way?
is the garage door metal?
Sounds like you need to trim the laminate back from the door. You're supposed to leave it floating, and not do things like screw transitions to it, which can prevent it from moving and cause the joints to open up.
To me, this is the biggest downside to laminate flooring. In order to leave the required clearances (as per the instructions), there are some details that don't seem to have good solutions.
I laid the laminate up to the door but not over the screw holes. I considered cutting it back even with the edge of the threshold, but that'll look bad because the threshold slopes.
The door is metal. But since the threshold tilts I don't think trimming the door is right anyway.
can you use a lower profile threshold?
Since the floor is down you need some kind of fix.
One solution might be to make a threshold from oak that can screw down using the existing holes and "float" over the flooring.
No plate, so I guess it's a go. Thanks for your help!
You could reset the door as well

MIHAIL KOGALNICEANU, Romania - Medical emergencies happen around us every day. How we react to them can be the difference between life and death.
Around 200 personnel and volunteers from 15 different placement centers in Ovidiu and Constanta, Romania, attended a seminar conducted by sailors from Black Sea Rotational Force 14 and soldiers with Task Force 6 team stationed out of Baumholder, Germany, at the Traian Placement Center in Constanta, Feb. 10-15. The seminar, lasting four hours a day, hosted different participants each day to receive basic first aid training which could be helpful at their respective centers.
"It's important because the centers' workers have a lot of frequent interactions with children, specifically children with various disabilities and who are at higher risk for medical issues. Knowing the basics of first aid will make them more comfortable working with those children and more capable of helping them if something happens," said Lieutenant Theodore Demetriou, the medical officer for BSRF-14.
Along with Demetriou, different sailors and soldiers were able to attend the seminar each day in order to gain experience teaching classes.
"A lot of the junior sailors and soldiers don't have a lot of experience getting in front of people and teaching, but being in the medical profession, the vast majority of what you do requires talking to people and being comfortable expressing information. Conveying medical knowledge is an important skill for anyone in the medical field," said Demetriou.
Teaching various representatives for the placement centers demonstrates the importance of basic first aid in cases where personnel have to take care of a child until medical help can arrive.
"I think for the providers it is important to learn these skills so they don't panic in case of emergency," said Specialist Thomas Shields, a health care specialist with Task Force 6 team. "Of course, no one ever wants anything bad to happen, but if it does it's good to know how to respond."
The medical seminar consisted of classes about scene safety, assessing a patient, treating hemorrhage, splinting fractures, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, choking and bite wounds, with strong emphasis on the ABCs of assessing a patient in every class. The ABCs of patient assessment are checking for an airway obstruction, uninterrupted breathing, and if there is proper blood circulation."
Hospitalman Sean Wilson, a field medical technician with Black Sea Rotational Force 14, said that teaching the representatives was a very rewarding experience.
"I really enjoyed being able to stand in front of people and educate them on a little bit of what I do, and spreading the knowledge so hopefully, if they ever are in a situation, they will be able to help," said Wilson.
With a high demand for classes and a limited amount of time, the medical personnel had to reduce the amount of information that they were teaching to the students.
"There is a lot we would have liked to go over, and everything that we did go over could have used more time," said Demetriou. "With a very little amount of time everything was cut down significantly and we had to cut quite a bit out; specifically in referencing some of the issues that the children have like certain medical conditions."
"I was thinking that we could have gone more into improvised splints and the same with bandages as well," said Shields. "It would have been beneficial to go over different things that they could use other than ace wraps. I believe more 'thinking out of the box' things, for their cases, would be better."
"I would have liked to go over the CPR portion because usually those classes are a full day in length, and we had to cut a lot of that out to be able to fit it in with the other things that we were teaching; it was all very basic," said Wilson.
With most of the students coming to the medical seminar with very little first aid knowledge, and personnel having little experience teaching large groups of people, the medical seminar has proved to be a learning experience for both the participants, sailors and soldiers.
Marines and sailors with Black Sea Rotational Force 14 are part of the first winter rotation of forces in the area that promote regional stability and security, maintain positive relationships with their partner nations, increase military capacity and interoperability, and are the crisis-contingency force in the Eastern European region. Sailors with BSRF-14 have directly contributed to mission accomplishment by engaging the local community and offering an opportunity for participants to increase their medical knowledge and proficiency in first aid.

While it's true that our culture
is obsessed with youth and beauty, outward appearance is much
more than skin deep. In fact, it may be a useful tool in gauging
a person's overall health. Skin mirrors our emotional
state, our hormone balance, and our level of nutrition. Interestingly,
relaxation and proper nourishment quickly show up in skin health
and beauty.
Oils are a Key to Glowing Skin and Shiny Hair
Use a natural makeup remover of a 100% pure avocado or
almond oil rather than chemical cleansers or mineral oil.
Contrary to popular thinking, these oils do not cause clogged
pores, plus they soften the skin and really do a great job
of cleaning.
Use the same avocado oil or almond oil to condition dry
hair before shampooing.
The skin on your body will also bloom from pure avocado
or almond oil. After your shower or bath mix a teaspoon
or two of oil with several drops of your favorite perfume
or essential oil and massage it over your damp body. The
oil helps hold in moisture, yet you won't feel greasy
like you do from mineral oil since these oils are readily
absorbed into the skin.
Six Skin Care Supplements that Help Maintain a Youthful
Hold on to Your Full Head of Hair
It's completely normal to lose up to 100 hairs a day.
(They grow back.) Gently pull on a small section of hair. If
fewer than 5 hairs come out, hair loss is within the normal
range. Within the context
of TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) He Shou Wu strengthens
the liver and kidney meridians and supports blood flow, providing
nutrition to hair follicles for healthy growth.
Grow Long, Strong Nails with Silica
Silica, also referred to as silicon or silicon dioxide (but
not to be confused with silicone), is an essential mineral
required for the strength and elasticity of bones, joints,
connective tissue, hair, skin, nails, mucous membranes and
arteries. It is an effective way to keep nails hard, yet flexible
rather than brittle. The herb horsetail contains high amounts
of silica. This trace mineral also helps maintain hair strength
and keeps skin soft and supple.

Gatumba leaders, residents join efforts in conserving environment
Ngororero District residents have joined local authorities in Gatumba sector in a project to reconstruct various places and infrastructure ruined due to mining activities which left the surroundings in shambles.
The nearby residents and miners were the first to work on covering old mines especially because they have been directly and negatively affected by soil erosion, water pollution and the presence of mosquito breeding sites.
Residents made it a point to cover up all places that have been used for mining purposes in the past years that were not covered up by the miners as expected.
Some of initiatives taken include planting of trees and educating miners about the importance of environmental protection.
The mining society operating in this area known as Gatumba Mining Concession (GMC) helped local people in covering up the used mines by providing seedlings and labour for tree planting.
Bustan Sebitereko the environmental officer in Ngororero district thanked Gatumba residents for the courage to maintain environment.
He blamed miners who do not put environment in consideration and instead destroy it. The Ministry of Natural Resources said it has noted the problem and is ready to punish such poor mining methods with negative impact to the environment.

Achnatherum calamagrostis
Silver Spike Grass - 2006 Plant of the Year
Details36" tall x 36" wide (seed/division propagated). A spectacular European native, Achnatherum is both a graceful and free-flowering summer blooming ornamental grass. It will beautify your garden with its showy, silver-green flowering spikes that turn a rich tawny brown in the fall. For best garden performance Silver Spike Grass should be grown in the western US (and other higher altitude areas of the country) where summer humidity is low and nights are cool. Seed of this grass comes to us by way of Lauren Springer Ogden, who has pioneered the use of it in this country by successfully cultivating it in CO for over 8 years. Achnatherum is sure to be extremely popular as it is a distinctive, specimen-worthy species for highly visible areas of your landscape.

Suggested Companion Plants:
USDA Hardiness Planting Zones
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
- If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will survive the winter temperatures in your area.
- If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).

That would at least have been funny, and (forgetting the celeb likeness rule for a moment) had some appeal to people who aren't fans of Rocky or Punch-Out. No offense intended, Fable, but his design is pretty much Transformer fan baiting, with the Top Gun logo providing a loose form of parody.

Nice design - only fault I can see is that there can't be two white blocks on both sides of the same edge piece (unless someone used the peel and glue method).

Productivity development in Icelandic, Norwegian and Swedish fisheries
This article analyses the Total Factor Productivity (TFP) performance of fisheries in Iceland, Norway and Sweden during the period 1973 to 2003. We measure TFP growth using real gross value added as output and capital input, labour input and a stock input index based on the major fish stocks. In developed neighbouring countries, we expect rapid diffusion of fishing technology innovations contributing to productivity convergence. In addition, innovations in the public regulation and the industrial organization may also have influenced productivity growth during the period. We find that Iceland had the highest annual TFP growth. Accounting for stock changes, it amounts to 3%, while the corresponding figures for Sweden and Norway are 2.8% and 0.8%, respectively. Despite best practice fishing technologies being widely available, we find no evidence of productivity convergence among the three countries.

Structured Products
More opportunities for your money
Structured products are combinations of traditional financial instruments (e.g. stocks and bonds) with one or more derivatives utilizing elements such as equities, indices, interest rates, foreign currencies, metals or commodities.
Depending on how financial engineers combine the various elements, you can structure the pay-off profile of a product. No other instrument lets you shape risk/return characteristics as precisely as structured products.
Structured products not only let you benefit from rising prices; they even let you optimize returns when the markets are moving sideways. You can even make money in falling markets. Various products can be used for this, depending on market expectations and the individual risk profile of the investor.
Your advantages:
- You can access new investment themes and markets.
- You can secure positive returns in all market situations.
- You can micro-manage investment risk.
Structured products give you certain claims against the issuer, which is why issuer quality is so important. Risks vary depending on the type of product used. Some structured products are more suited to investors with a small appetite for risk, whereas others carry more risk. What is important is that you understand the risks involved with a specific product and its underlying, and that you discuss these with your client advisor.

What do you think about this product?
Have questions about this product?
Comfortable, but fragile.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I took this to New Zealand on a 2 month backpacking trip I think it lasted 4 days before the stays broke and I was stuck carrying a useless piece of gear. Not impressed.
The lightest backpacking chair option.
How to use this as a chair, chaise lounge, and pillow.
I have a Big Agnes Insulated Q-Core Sl sleeping pad, 20 x 78 x 3.5. Will that work with the Large version of this Exped chair? Please and Thank You!
Camping will never be the same again!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This is the most amazing thing I ever got to my camping gear. I have fallen asleep in upright sitting mode several times just because it is so comfortable, sometimes I even use it at home instead of sitting in our couch! That's how much I like it!
Stays are too long?
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I like this in general, but it seems like the nylon stay-holders may have shrank because I can't get the stays in them anymore. It seems like the stays are about 1-2cm too long.
On Shasta last weekend, I was able to get the "bottom" (mid-section) stays in by prying them into place with a multitool, but I couldn't get the "back" (end-section) stays in place for the life of me.
Anyone else experienced this? I'm bummed, because it's a great product otherwise. I keep it on the pad 100% of the time (sleeping, storage, sitting, etc.).
Update ?�the kind folks at backcountry.com let me RMA this. Hopefully the replacement won't have the same issue.
Update - got my replacement in the mail. Works perfectly. I plan on leaving the stays in from now on (which shouldn't be a problem... you can roll it up with the stays in and still fit it in the included bag).
Happy camper.
Envy of my camping companions
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I've had this a few years now and love it. Just recently we were sea kayaking to an island and we all get our tents set up and all get around to cook dinner. My companions have no chair or their dinky tripod foldout they precariously balance upon. I have the incredibly luxurious Exped chair! Nobody could understand how it fit in my kayak! They did not realize my sleeping mat was inside. It is big and comfy with lots of insulation from the ground, and you can lean back against it and relax. It makes my mat multifunctional by becoming the cushion to the chair, therefore it cleverly conserves space. Also, sleeping with the chair kit on the mat increases comfort because you feel the tube shape of the mat less through it. All through the night my friends were envious of my chair as we sat by the fire. I felt like king. Exped rules.
Exped Chair Kit
Ted gives us a tour of the features and usage of the Exped Chair Kit. This kit works for all Exped mats as well as many other mat brands.
Freaking awesome!
Okay, so I normally don't write these reviews but I think this product merits it. The picture that BC uses makes it look crappy but the chair kit is actually made of super high quality material and a lot of thought has obviously been put into its super functional features.
First off, the material on the top is super comfortable to the skin, while the bottom material is durable but light. All the straps, stitching, and zippers are all high quality.
Secondly, the functionality of this product is orgasmic--secret pillow Check out this video for all the functionality features: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVwPdsHA21o
Plus, you can leave your exped mat (which are phenomonly underated and super high quality--great r value, comfort and durability) inside the chairkit and role it up, put it in the sack--making the set up and take down super easy.
anyway, I'm super impressed with this product--if functionality and high quality craftmenship turn you on, get this product!
Thanks Josh! And thanks for posting the video. I'm going to re-post it, so it comes up for others, right away. Cheers!

Disney's Animal Kingdom is Walt Disney World's newest and biggest theme park. Yes, I did say this is the biggest of the parks. It's true in terms of acres. The safari itself is the size of The Magic Kingdom. There is a lot of walking to be done here, so wear comfortable shoes.
The Animal Kingdom is full of Animals (imagine that). There are also some good shows and a couple of really good rides. Let's go ...
Expedition Everest at the Animal Kingdom
The Oasis
The Oasis is the entrance area to the park. All of the other Disney World parks have shops right inside the gate. Not here. The Oasis is a buffer between the outside world and the animals on the inside. It's a great way to begin.
Pandora - The World of AVATAR
Disney Imagineers are working with director James Cameron to create an immersive world unlike anythin you've ever seen. A boat ride, a simulator ride, floating mountains and more await. Construction is underway in the area that used to be Camp Mickey Minnieand no debut day has been confirmed - Dad expects the land to open in late 2017.

Behind the Scenes
If you want a VIP guided behind the scenes tour of the Animal Kingdom, check out the Wild African Trek. It's a hiking tour through the Pangani Forest overlooking the Safari ride and the Savannah complete with foot bridges and riverbeds full of hungry crocodiles (keep a look out for Captain Hook). This 3 hour adventure is offered daily at 1-407-WDW-TOUR.
Dad's Plan
Making a plan to tour the park is pretty easy. While it's the biggest park in area, it's the easiest to maneuver around because there isn't any easy way to criss cross the park. While Dad normally recommends using a touring plan from Touringplans.com, it's not really needed for this park.
See for yourself
Come and see all the animals for yourself. They are calling your name right now. Just go over to Dad's Destinations to Travel page and let my partners get you started on a Perfect Vacation. Get started today!
Dad's Destinations to Travel page
Dad's Bottom Line
Disney's Animal Kingdom is growing into a great theme park or the best zoo on the planet, I'm still not sure which. What ever it is it's a great place to spend a day. The Safari is absolutely not to be missed.
Where else can take a trip around the World, see exotic animals, and see the culture of parts of the globe that are far away, all without leaving Florida? What a concept.


text: Perfect Image Creations returns to the VW Vortex Share Comments Back by popular demand! Perfect Image Creations has returned to the VW Vortex with a new limited production run of aluminum interior dash components. Dean Getchell or "Metal Man" Produces the finest aluminum interior dash pieces available. Last Spring a limited number of his kits were available for purchase and were sold out by June. For those unfamiliar with his product these are the only "real aluminum" kits available on the market. CNC machined from solid brushed aluminum and clear anodized. The Majority of these pieces fit easily into recessed areas of the dash and look factory installed. In fact GLI and R32 owners finish off their factory aluminum interiors with his additional pieces because the grain pattern matches perfectly. Like any well-done modification the kit greatly enhances any color VW interior. And for the first time ever a new "titanium finish" is available. But take note: after receiving several inquiries "metal man" has produced his last batch of kits and pieces for the '99 to '05 MKIV that will be sold. He is exclusively selling these last few MKIV kits through the VWvortex connection. He says, "to maintain the rarity for my loyal customers, these numbered kits are the last of their kind". And we believe it, ABD has sold out of his kits and he sold out of the Audi A4 kits and will never produce more. This is what makes these kits so rare, so get one before they're all sold out.

Iowa jumped out to an early 2-0 lead in the top of the first inning. Scoring early is something the Cubs are accustomed to. Iowa has scored 50 runs in the first inning this year. The two runs came in to score on first baseman Micah Hoffpauir's ground rule double down the right field line which took a leaping bounce over the fence, driving in Felix Pie and Mike Fontenot.
The Cubs' lead lasted only moments, as the Beavers answered back with two runs of their own in the bottom of the frame, tying the game 2-2. Vincent Sinisi smashed an opposite field solo homerun to left, which was followed by Brian Myrow's RBI single which drove in Craig Stansberry from second base.
The tie score, however, was short lived. The Cubs forged ahead to take a 4-2 lead by tacking on solo runs in the second and third innings. In the second inning, Scott Moore scored from third on a sacrifice fly to left by starting pitcher Les Walrond. Fontenot scored his second run of the game in the fourth inning when Chris Walker reached on a fielder's choice.
The Beavers staged a two-out rally in the fifth inning to tie the game 4-4. After getting two quick outs on four pitches, Walrond tubed a few pitches which Mike Sansoe and Sinisi tagged for back-to-back doubles. They were followed by an RBI single off the bat of Stansberry, which brought the tying run home to score.
After putting men at the corners with nobody out in the sixth inning, Wells was relieved by Royce Ring who managed to get Portland out of the inning unscathed. Ring worked two scoreless innings for the Beavers. Over his last 3.1 innings, the sidearming lefty has struck out eight batters.
"Ring did a really nice job getting us out of the sixth and the seventh with all the lefties." Renteria said.
Taking over for Ring in the eight was Andrew Brown. Brown has been in a harsh slump his last eight outings, giving up nine earned runs and watching his earned run average spike from 0.47 to 3.42. On Friday night, Brown's misfortune continued. After getting two quick outs, the tall, hard throwing right-hander worked a full count to third baseman Scott Moore who subsequently wrapped a ball just around the right field foul pole for a solo homerun, giving Iowa a 5-4 lead.
The Beavers threatened in the bottom of the ninth inning. Sansoe led off and sliced a ball into the irregularly shaped right field corner of PGE Park. As the ball continued to skip around in the corner, Sansoe sauntered into third base with a stand-up triple. With two outs, and Sansoe still dancing off third, Craig Stansberry came to bat for the Beavers. Stansberry is one of the team's major run producers and leads Portland in multiple-RBI games with six. Iowa brought in reliever Rocky Cherry to face Stansberry for the last out. With a 0-2 count, Cherry bounced a ball to home plate that got away from catcher Geovany Soto. Sansoe hesitated slightly, and then broke for home plate. He was thrown out by about three feet to end the game.
"The difference was just a little hesitation he had in the read... the reality was he did a real nice job of hitting a triple to start off with... He had the right idea. The ball definitely kicked away enough but it was just the tad hesitation," Renteria said.
Game Notes:
- Today Clay Hensley was reinstated from the Padres' disabled list and optioned to Portland along with Oscar Robles. The two are scheduled to arrive in Portland either Sunday or Monday.
- The Beavers announced the finalization of their sale to Shortstop LLC, and Merritt Paulson will take immediate control as majority owner and General Manager of the Beavers.
- Sinisi has an eighth game hit streak going.
- Hoffpauir for Iowa was 9-for-17 against Portland this series.

AJC reviews our lobster roll
Thanks to the large number of Northerners that have settled in Alpharetta, this suburb has become a hotbed for Northern staples, such as New York-style pizza and bagels. Now add lobster rolls. At Bite, Sous-chef Jason Morgan pushed his boss, Leif Johnson, to put his recipe on the menu. The year-round item is a bestseller.
A relative newcomer to the Atlanta culinary scene, Morgan fell in love with the combination of tarragon and lobster when working under chef Chris Hall of The Local Three. According to Morgan, his lobster roll isn't traditional because of the bun. He uses a denser black pepper and thyme – the same one that Souper Jenny uses. Morgan takes claw and knuckle meat and dresses it in a homemade aioli, adds crunch with chopped celery and shallots, and brightened with lime zest, fresh tarragon, chives, and basil. He adds a little pickled red onion on top to cut the relative heaviness of the sandwich. It's an inspired touch.
Thanks to Milt For A Great Review on ChowHound
Bite, 15500 Webb Bridge Way @ Medlock Bridge, Alpharetta is 15 minutes from my son's home in Norcross. We were there on Friday evening and had the most impressive dinner I have had in quite some time. We enjoyed soup, salad, entrees, and desserts along with their homemade cucumber lemonade.
Alpharetta Is Home To A New Creative Fresh Restaurant
Thanks to Tammy Bester from Alpharetta-MiltonPatch for her review of Bite.
Thanks to Tammy Bester from Alpharetta-MiltonPatch for her review of Bite.
Even though the restaurant name is new to Alpharetta, Bite has been a popular catering company based out of Dunwoody for the last five years.
Owner and chef Leif Johnson attributes his repeat customer base and word of mouth success to always using good products, making interesting and creative food and doing this at fair prices for his customers. Now, the creativity and delight of his dishes can be experienced right here in Alpharetta.
Bite is currently open for lunch Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 11500 Webb Bridge Way, Alpharetta. And beginning Aug. 11, customers will be able to have dinner there as well.
The atmosphere is welcoming as customers are greeted as soon as they enter. The restaurant has 26 seats in the open room as well as 6 at the bar and outdoor tables as well. The bar seats offer guests the opportunity to relate with the chefs as they prepare the customers meals in front of them. The intimate setting and lighting offers diners a happening yet intimate vibe wile eating. It is a very unique atmosphere where everyone feels welcome and a part of the experience.
The menu at Bite consists of selections that guests would expect on a local menu. It is not until reading the descriptions or talking with the chef who is preparing the meal entirely in front of them that a diner realize this is a very different restaurant. Everything that can be made fresh, is made fresh. For example, the turkey in the turkey sandwich was bought by the restaurant as raw meat. It was then brined, smoked, cooled and sliced at Bite. The white cheddar is smoked on site for the Pimento dish. The dressings, condiments and sauces are made from scratch.
Much effort has gone into making sure everything is as fresh as it can be before it is presented to the customer in a manner that one would expect from a fine restaurant. The food is elegantly displayed on each plate with as much care as was used in the preparation of the food itself. All of this is served to the customer at prices that range from $4 to $13 a plate.
Enjoy a glass of Cucumber Lemonade with your meal and finish it off with unique ice cream flavors custom made by local company, High Road Craft.
Before moving to Georgia, Leif was an executive chef at a winery in California. He combines his classical training of culinary school with his hard knocks education to come up with his creative dishes. Growing up, he spent time with his grandmother who taught him the basics of cooking. In college, he studied business.
Combining the experience, the talent and the passion for what he does, Bite offers an eclectic menu that Leif calls "New American." This gives him the liberty to pull flavors from different profiles including Asian. Latin and East coast dishes that he is able to weave together to come up with unique yet familiar cuisine.
Guests who dine at Bite are sure to get to know Leif as well as his chef, Jason Morgan, as they prepare the meals at the bar.
The most popular sandwich ordered is the Lobster Roll. This is because of its authentic New England taste and the fact that it has no fillers. It is simply lobster lightly dressed and placed on a lobster roll. The Street Corn is also a popular choice. The sweet, salty and smoky combination of ingredients makes an awesome combination of tastes.
When dinner becomes available, guests will be invited to bring their own bottles of wine to perfectly complement their meal and their personal budgets.

Magazine Recognizes Stephens Co. Hospital
A state magazine is naming Stephens County Hospital one of the top ten hospitals of its size in Georgia.
In its December issue, Georgia Trend magazine released a special section ranking hospitals around the state.
Based on that ranking system, the magazine listed Stephens County Hospital as the number 8 small hospital in Georgia, meaning hospitals that have 150 or fewer beds.
Stephens County Hospital Administrator Ed Gambrell said that ranking comes from data compiled by the magazine.
"There is just a multitude of information that hospitals must legally now submit to different agencies and the government, so Georgia Trend looked at these reports and rated hospitals," said Gambrell.
The data used in the rankings includes publicly available information from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services on quality care, patient satisfaction, mortality, readmission statistics, and hospital-acquired infections and conditions.
Gambrell said that the hospital is pleased to receive this ranking from the magazine.
"We were very happy with that and very excited and it is certainly due to the hard work of many people," said Gambrell.
Gambrell credited the employees and the physicians at Stephens County Hospital for all of their efforts.
He added that the hospital will continue with efforts to do even better in the future, stating that the Hospital Authority has high expectations for rendering quality care to each patient.

Less than a week after Microsoft dropped its Windows 8 Release Preview, Acer used Computex in Taipei, Taiwan, to unveil a gallery of ultrabooks, desktops, and tablets running the new operating system.
Given that Windows 8 was designed for tablets from the ground up, any supported devices will be closely watched. And with its new Iconia Tab W510 and W700, it's clear that Acer is branching away from Android and back into the fold of Microsoft.
The 10-1-inch Iconia W510 is tri-mode, which gives it the ability to shift between a standard tablet mode where you're touching the screen, a type mode where it functions as a notebook, and a view mode where it mimics a presentation device. In other words, think of it as bridging the gap between a tablet and a notebook.
One of its more interesting features is the detachable keyboard dock that will rotate 295 degrees and extend the battery life up to 18 hours. It also comes with Acer's Always On, Always Connect technology.
Not to be left out, the Iconia W700 also has a multipurpose cradle that can tilt up to 70 degrees or position the tablet in portrait mode for more comfortable Web browsing and reading. Unlike the Iconia W510, however, its cradle doesn't come with an extra battery so you'll be limited to the promised eight hours of use.
Otherwise, you'll find three USB 3.0 ports, a 11.6-inch Full HD touchscreen, and Dolby Home Theater. And on the outside, it sports a sharp aluminum frame.

If you're learning and practicing to defend yourself in a lethal-force confrontation involving firearms, a quote from The Dirty Dozen, "Very pretty ... but can they fight?" is a good one to latch onto. I have come across too many shooters who have an unmarked, unscathed and pristine weapon that they coddle and protect from blemishes as if it were a Fabergé Egg.
Now I have no problem with this, as it is their choice, not mine. If it were my choice, that weapon would be worn yet clean; cut, dinged and scarred yet operational. In other words, it's been used and it shows.
I know it. I know what it can do. I know what I can do with it. I know every nuance, every idiosyncrasy and everything about it that I need to know to make it run. It has battle scars. It is smooth in some places and not in others. The bluing and surfaces are worn from working it--not looking at it. It is a working gun and nothing more. The weapon and I are kindred spirits of a sort. Both of us are worn and dinged, but we can still work if push comes to shove. I like that.
You may limit your progress if all you do is train with live fire. Dry practice is invaluable. You don't always have the ranges, the time nor the ability to live fire when the mood strikes you. On the other hand, dry practice can be conducted just about anywhere--day or night. Some will avoid dry practice just because. Others find it mundane, pedantic and beneath them. Others see no sense to it. Others are just plain lazy.
Perhaps the most common excuse for not dry firing is that it will damage the weapon. If you feel it will damage the weapon, purchase dummy proving rounds or snap caps. When you clean the weapon, check for fracture lines or worn edges and irregular surfaces on parts you think could fail as a result of dry practice. That's a simple fix. If you really question the results of wear due to dry practice, then walk it into an armorer and have him check it.
Shooting skills are perishable--much more perishable than your weapon is.
What you could pull off on the range at the end of a training day or qualification course 30 days ago you might not be able to pull off now. Your finite feel for the trigger might not be quite there. Your grip may not be as firm as it was 30 days prior. The sights may not line up as readily. The pistol or rifle or shotgun simply may not "feel" as it did when you were really into it.
Dry practice keeps all of this on line. You can still work the controls, find the sights, press the trigger, work the action, conduct malfunction drills and reloads and yet you haven't fired a single shot.
We get a lot of students who are in shape and work out on a regular basis. I did and still do as well. Weights, running tracks and the like are one thing, whereas a live fire range is another. So here's the dialogue:
"You work out?" "Yeah." "Why?" "To stay in shape for the streets." "You dry practice?" "Not really." Why not?" "I don't know. Maybe because it'll screw up my gun." "Who told you that?" "I'd rather not say.""Okay."
Ostensibly, we work out and stay in shape to meet the threat of non-lethal confrontations. Lethal confrontations require working out as well. Somehow this has been overlooked through the ages. You probably won't get a chance to warm up your trigger finger, feel the break, find the sights or practice malfunctions or reloads prior to a lethal-force confrontation. If you do, I'd like to hear about it. Really, I would.
Dry practice keeps you in the loop. It maintains a feel for the weapon and what you can do with it. And it doesn't take much time. A few minutes every other day would be fine with me. It just needs to be more than live fire every month, every other month, or only twice a year--in some cases even less.
As a young officer, I made small hard cardboard silhouettes and spray painted them flat black. They were graduated in size to replicate everything from ten yards to 50 yards or thereabouts. I double and triple redundancy checked the weapon and conducted draws and dry practice shots on each of them in varying order. When I went to the range, the dry practice manifested itself in live courses of fire. It was a simple yet viable fix for not having 24-hour access to a live-fire range. You might want to think about this.
To paraphrase "the General": "Pretty pistol, kid. Know how to use it?" £

Determination and publication of assessment methods
At the commencement of study in a topic, the lecturer-in-charge must provide students with details in writing of assessment methods.
It is the responsibility of students to ensure that they have received notice of, and have understood, the assessment procedures.
The Student-Related Policies and Procedures Manual contains the University's policy on assessment which allows students to negotiate possible changes to assessment details.
Should you believe that you are disadvantaged in respect to the assessment methods for a topic, you should, in the first instance, contact the lecturer-in-charge.

The new Holi Google doodle is simple, attractive and awesome. Instead of its vibrant 'Google' logo, the California based technology giant, featured the logo in white colour with a mixture of different colours in background. On clicking the doodle, Google will take you to the search result for Holi.
Holi is one of the religious festival celebrated by Indians, mainly Hindus. It is celebrated by people throwing coloured powder and coloured water at each other. Holi is celebrated at the end of the winter season on the last full moon day of the lunar month Phalguna.
Google has always celebrated all special occasions, days and events by featuring various illustrations on its Doodle. These decorative changes in Google's logo are much anticipated and evokes a lot of excitement in the minds of the viewers.
We at OneIndia, wish all our readers a 'Happy Holi'.
