Molton Brown Valbonne Fragrance, full size RRP £65
Birchbox say: "Known for their gorgeous lotion and shower gel scents, Molton Brown's fine fragrance collection is predictably heavenly. Valbonne combines notes of bergamot, dewy orange flower, rose, vetiver and leather for a sophisticated scent that will take you from day to night."
I'm not one of those people that gets too wound up by the inclusion of perfume samples in beauty boxes (unless they come alongside say 3 other cheap/readily available products), and it's not often I get to pick up free samples at department stores so generally I'm quite happy to try them out when I get them in my beauty boxes. This fragrance is lovely, but slightly too high on the 'mature' scent spectrum for my liking. It would be beautiful as a candle, but not really something I could imagine myself wearing. Also - leather as one of the notes? Can't say I've ever heard of that in a fragrance before!
Laura Geller Inkwell Waterproof Gel Liner, full size RRP (for duo) £24.50
Birchbox say: "This smooth long-wearing gel eyeliner comes with a handy brush that makes it super-easy to apply. Jojoba Oil and Vitamin E are among the skin-loving ingredients..."
This might be a major beauty sin but I've never heard of Laura Geller before. A quick Google tells me I may be in the minority here! This is a deceptively large eyeliner with just over 2ml of actual product, but it does come with a brush which is a handy little addition (though I can't stand using short brushes). Before I got my box I had a look at some other reviews of this month's box and saw most people getting a Purple eyeliner - I'm really glad I got black because I don't really stray from it in terms of gel liner. I'm excited to start using this once I've used up my MAC Blacktrack Fluidline Gel Liner to see if it lives up to its promises, but I'm really pleased with the inclusion of it in the box. Thumbs up Birchbox.
RMK Cleansing Balm, full size RRP £29
Birchbox say: "This rose-scented balm echoes your mum or grandmother's cold cream as it melts into skin and becomes a silky liquid that removes even stubborn make-up with ease. Apply to skin, emulsify with wet hands, and rinse thoroughly with warm water."
My standout product of this box for an absolute mile. RMK is a Japanese brand that I've had my eye on for a long time, and this is a really decent sized sample of its new Cleansing Balm. I've used it twice now and I'm hesitant to suggest it's a gamechanger, but I really think it might be. This little baby removes everything, where my Liz Earle and Emma Hardie cleansers often struggle. My waterproof mascara is gone without me having to vigorously scrub and remove several eyelashes along the way, it smells lovely and leaves my skin absolutely baby soft. This is going to be my next purchase cleanser-wise when I've run out...amazing. A-mazing.
Yu-Be Moisturizing Skin Cream, full size RRP £19.50
Birchbox say: "Don't let the primrose colour fool you - this multi-purpose medicated moisturiser is made of tough stuff. A bestseller in Japan since 1957, the comforting camphor scent magically disappears about a minute after application, but leaves you with super-soft skin."
I've had a sample of this before with a Space NK order, so although I don't think it's quite worthy of a "deluxe sample" title, I do really love this. I used this for a couple of months as a lip balm and it worked wonders, so I'm happy to have another little tube of it. I probably wouldn't purchase the full size any time soon though as I've got a stash of lip balms that need using up!
La Sultane de Saba Body Lotion with Argan Oil, full size RRP £26.50
Birchbox say: "Inspired by ancient beauty rituals of the Orient and Asia, La Sultane de Saba's body lotion with rich Argan Oil sinks into skin with ease, leaving a delicate scent. Divine."
Never heard of this brand, and not particularly impressed - I think this smells like the sort of cream you use when changing a baby's nappy. I used this on my legs and didn't see any result really, so a bit of a disappointment for me.
The premise of this sounded quite exciting - the first sachet as a serum, and the second as a thick heating mask which you leave to cool on your face for 15 minutes. Sadly, I saw no difference at all in my skin, but this does call itself a 30 day transformation - maybe a bad move on Sanctuary's part to put only a one or two day usage in a beauty box because it's put me off repurchasing.
Lifestyle Extra: Lindt Lindor Heart Tin filled with Chocolate Truffles, full size RRP £2.99
Who doesn't love Lindt chocolate? Sadly, I'm on a strict diet, but these were much appreciated by my housemate!
Overall I'm really pleased with the box, if only for the RMK Cleansing Balm and the Laura Geller eyeliner. It would have been nice to have the beauty blender, of course, but I think I'm actually more happy with the cleansing balm because I think it may be a gamechanger for me!
What do you think of the March Birchbox?

I am absolutely gaga over the new line of Furochic gift wrap from Jenny Wren Paperie! It's beautifully printed reusable gift wrap! I love it because it's an easy and eco-friendly way to wrap your gifts and can then be reused into a no-sew handbag, pillow covering, scarf, patchwork quilt or used to re-wrap another gift. Based on Furoshiki, a square cloth traditionally used in Japan to wrap shopping purchases and embellish important gifts, Furochic is dye printed so they are more colorful and more durable and easy to wash and iron.

Gagnon Cardiovascular hospital is part of Morristown Medical Center and when I was a patient there for my open heart surgery I was treated and cared for by top notch physicians and nurses. I have nothing negative to say regarding my stay. While this was the scariest time in my life it also was remarkable. My care was exceptional from CPACU TO GAGNON 3. I have never met more professional nurses in any of my stays in any hospital (and at the ripe age of 75, I have been in a few). I definitely see why this hospital is highly rated for heart surgeries.

I went in for a routine elbow operation and came out with a huge staph infection on my back. I have little doubt it was contracted on a sticky vinyl lined gurney. My back was exposed to it because the nurse refused my request to tie the back of my gown which I could not do due to my incapacitated elbow. This is the same hospital that failed to diagnose a "gall bladder full of stones" just weeks prior to her emergency operation to have it removed.

Something Cool We Saw Online: Better Sneakers

It's as if every time we think that there is no better version of an all-white shoe than the ones we already have, there comes yet a better version. This time, and not surprisingly, that upgrade comes from Converse. As part of their Chuck Taylor Premiums line, the classic hi-top has been updated in matte leather throughout. And, though an upgrade to leather is not always a good idea when it comes to casual shoes, it's certainly welcome here.

The former 'X Factor' contestants frolick on a beach during one sunny day and enjoy the company of some fine girls.
One Direction's debut single "What Makes You Beautiful" has got an official music video. Directed by John Urbano, it sees the boyband romping around the beach before meeting the girls and serenading them with loving lyrics.
"Baby you light up my world like nobody else/ The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed," the boys sing it out. "You don't know you're beautiful/ That's what makes you beautiful."
Former contestants of "The X Factor" season 7, One Direction are currently preparing their first album. They are going to drop "What Makes You Beautiful" as the lead single on September 11, but have already broken record before its release.
They reportedly have scored the highest ever amount of pre-orders for a Sony Music label act in the company's history.

Frank's research group includes biophysicists, biochemists, theoretical physicists and computer scientists. Their findings led to the formulation of a model for protein translation, and the research may lead to new strategies for the development of anti-viral drugs.
Professor Frank has also trained numerous visiting scientists, undergraduate and graduate students, and postdoctoral fellows in his laboratory. He is co-director of the biomedical sciences track in Structural Cell Biology and the director of the Wadsworth Resource for Visualization of Biological Complexity. Among Frank's accolades was the Elizabeth Roberts Cole Award from the Biophysical Society in 1993. He also chaired one of the first Gordon Conferences on three-dimensional electron microscopy.
Frank continues to be a major innovative force in his field. He is the only scholar in the region to receive the prestigious senior investigatorship in the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. During his distinguished career, he has worked in laboratories throughout the U.S. and Europe and is one of the University's most highly prized researchers.

Perez MRI shows mild tendinitis in shoulder
(CLEVELAND) – Indians closer Chris Perez will be completely shut down for the next 5-7 days according to the team.
Results from Perez's Sunday afternoon MRI showed mild tendinitis in his right rotator cuff.
The two-time All-Star closer was put on the 15-day disabled list before Monday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Left-hander Nick Hagadone filled the Indians open roster spot. Set-up man Vinnie Pestano will assume the Tribe's closer role in Perez's absence according to manager Terry Francona.
Perez has been dealing with right shoulder issues dating back to spring training. The recent flare up happened on Sunday afternoon at Fenway Park in Boston when the Red Sox battled back to score four runs in the ninth inning to shock the Indians 6-5.
The Indians lost again on Memorial Day at Great American Ball Park. The Tribe has now dropped four-straight games, including six of their last seven. The last three games handed over to the bullpen have resulted in losses.
The Tribe gets back to action Tuesday night in Cincinnati at 7:10 pm ET.

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Dear Stavros,
I know just where you're coming from. Fortunately, I've found I can get all the attention I need hanging round the Gents' toilets in LA, or taking the dog for a walk on Hampstead Heath when I'm back in London. Better still, all it costs me is sore knees and a couple quid for the parking meter – that's if I haven't parked my car in the front window of Happy Snaps again.
Anyhow, give it a go and see how you get on. The boys will be sure to give you a warm welcome.
Mean time, I've got to go now – Andrew Ridgeley's coming round to play me his new album and I'll need to be righteously off my face on Dutch Skunk before that happens!

NPR, January 29, 2013
If doctors would just pay attention to how much things cost, they might be more careful when ordering tests for patients, right? Well, that's the theory behind some research and projects to cut wasteful health spending. But a study at Johns Hopkins Hospital found that changing doctors' behavior may be not be as easy as simply making them aware of prices. Radiologist and hospitalists collaborated on an experiment to see if disclosing the cost of some of the most frequently ordered imaging tests, including standard chest X-rays and CT scans of the head, would reduce their use in the hospital. The short answer is no.

Natural disasters and firms in Vietnam
This paper investigates the consequences of natural disasters on firms in Vietnam over the period 2000 to 2008. We examine the impacts of natural disasters on firm investment and retail sales. We find evidence of adverse effects of disasters on retail sales accompanied by an increase in firm investment of very similar magnitude. There are important differences across geographical units, with the positive impact on investment unique to large cities and provinces with large urban concentrations. We find that more remote rural areas, especially in the North, experience declines in sales without the mitigating boost to investment in disasters' aftermath. We also show that the decline in sales is not apparently associated with declines in household incomes.

In this chapter I wish to give the reader a little information on how to obtain and retain Divine Healing.
There are two ways of bringing healing into disrepute and crowding it out of the world. The first way is to continually run to the physician and never apply to God for it. We must ever remember that healing was in the atonement as well as salvation. What saith the scripture "He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and with His stripes we are healed" (Isa. 53: 5). "Himself took our infirmities and bare our sicknesses" (Matt. 8: 17). Notwithstanding healing being in the atonement, we do not receive it unless we believe and apply for it, just as we did to get salvation.
The next way of bringing it into disrepute and crowding it out of the world is to receive it and afterward doubt it away. By so doing we wreck our own faith in it, and also the faith of others.
The woman who had the issue of blood, spoken of in Mark 5: 25-34, is a beautiful example for those seeking healing. Let us observe a few helpful things about her.
1. She believed Christ had the power to heal her completely. She did not let the nature of her disease, nor the long period which she had suffered with it, stagger her faith, nor limit His power; but she said (verse 28), "If I may touch but His clothes, I shall be WHOLE." This is the place where so many fail in obtaining complete healing. Because the disease is chronic, or because they have had it a long time, or because the earthly physicians say it is incurable, they limit God and fail to obtain the blessing. Friend, God can heal you of a cancer just as easily as He can of the headache.
2. She did not only believe He could heal her, but also believed that He was willing to do so. You will notice, in reading the life of Jesus, that He never refused to heal a single soul that ever applied for healing. Now we are told in Paul's letter to the Hebrews, that "He is the same yesterday, today and forever." Therefore, if He did not refuse any then, He will not refuse any now, otherwise this passage would not be true. The fault lies in our unbelief, not in Him. "All things are possible to him that believeth."
3. She went further still, and did not stop at simply believing He was willing, but believed He would. "If I may touch His clothes I SHALL be whole." Now, friends, you may have been anointed time and time again for healing, but always failed to obtain it. No doubt the trouble lies right here. You made feelings your foundation, rather than faith. After the oil was dropped on your head, you tried yourself to see if you felt any better. So as you did not feel any better you concluded that you were no better. But this woman did not do this. Her confidence was based upon touching Him and not on how she would feel. If you would say, after reading Jas. 5: 15, 16, and meeting the conditions, "Jesus heals me this moment," and would stick to it, you would surely be made whole.
4. The next thing that is worthy of your attention is the great opposition she met in reaching the Savior. Mark says, "She came in the PRESS." If we would get healed, there are lots of things to press against. The first is the doctor and remedies. The second is public opinion. The third is past failures to obtain healing. The fourth is future fears, i. e., fearing the disease will return again after you declared it was gone. But do not let any of these things move you.
The next information I wish to give is, how to keep healing after receiving it. The first point is, believe and count it done from the moment you are prayed with and anointed, no matter how you feel. The devil will be sure to attack your feelings for several days after you are healed, and sometimes cause you to feel apparent symptoms of the disease, but do not give in to him. He is only trying to break down your faith. You must stand your ground and count it done, and thus, after a week or two of testing and failing to destroy your faith, he will leave you again. James says, "Resist the devil and he will flee from you."
The second thing necessary to retain it is to continually act your faith, i. e., act like you are healed. Do not lounge around and act like a sick person, but get up and act your faith. As soon as Jesus healed the man at the pool, he put him to doing something-"Take up thy bed and walk"-that is, act like a well man.
The third thing necessary to retain healing is to testify to it every opportunity you get. Mr. Fletcher lost the experience of holiness five times by not testifying to it. The Psalmist says, "Make known His deeds among the people." Hundreds have lost healing at this point, and after they have lost it the devil will tell them they never had it in the first place and thus discourage them from seeking it again, but if we tell it, our faith will be strengthened, our healing perfected and others encouraged to come to God for healing.

Sat. November 10, 2012 | Joel Anderson
Homecoming, district titles, senior night, crosstown rivalries …none of it matters anymore. High school football's second season starts Friday night and 11 Hillsborough teams enter with championship dreams. Of course, some dreams come true and others can — and do — turn into nightmares. What follows is our attempt to figure out which fate befalls the county's top teams:
Plant (9-1)
Next opponent: Orlando Freedom (7-2)
Playoff outlook: To make it out of their region, the defending Class 8A champions could face rematches against Orlando Dr. Phillips and East Lake, who have a combined 19-1 record. The Panthers aren't quite as formidable as in previous seasons but they are as battle tested as ever.
Notable: The Panthers went undefeated against county opponents for the first time since 2006, when they finished 15-0 and won the 4A state title.
Wharton (8-2)
Next opponent: Orlando Dr. Phillips (10-0)
Playoff outlook: The Wildcats return to the scene of last year's playoff defeat: Dr. Phillips, the top-ranked team in 8A. Wharton is much improved since that 21-point loss …but so are the Panthers. If the Wildcats get out of the first round, then a rematch against Plant likely awaits. In short, there is no easy way out of this region.
Notable: The Wildcats last finished 8-2 in 2008, when they beat Alonso in the first round of the playoffs but were knocked out by Chamberlain in the region semifinals.
Tampa Bay Tech (7-3)
Next opponent: Durant (10-0)
Playoff outlook: A loss to Gaither in the Titans' district finale is the difference between hosting 6-4 Newsome and going on the road to face undefeated Durant. Tampa Bay Tech has the talent to contend but a lot of obstacles (Lakeland or Kissimmee Osceola) should mean another short-lived postseason run.
Notable: In 43 years of football, the Titans have never advanced past the second round of the playoffs.
Durant (10-0)
Next opponent: Tampa Bay Tech (7-3)
Playoff outlook: Coming off their first unbeaten season, the Cougars have rolled through the second half of the season. They haven't been seriously tested since a one-point win over Wharton in late September, meaning they'll need to adjust quickly to the intensity of the postseason. Anything less than the region final would be a disappointment.
Notable: Junior TE Paxon Sims and senior LG Dalton Wilkerson left the regular-season finale against King with knee injuries. Coach Mike Gottman said neither injury appears season-ending.
Newsome (6-4)
Next opponent: Gaither (8-2)
Playoff outlook: The Wolves are capable of pulling an opening-round upset at Gaither but might be too reliant on QB/LB Will Worth, who leads the team in passing, rushing and tackles, to do much more than scare Durant or TBT in the next round.
Notable: Since a 34-10 season-opening defeat to TBT, Newsome has scored 30 or more points eight times.
Gaither (8-2)
Next opponent: Newsome (6-4)
Playoff outlook: When the Cowboys pulled out their 35-32 win over TBT for the 7A-7 title, they also earned a home opener for the playoffs. Alex McGough and Co. should do well against Newsome but either state-ranked Durant or revenge-minded TBT awaits in the region semifinals. If the Cowboys survive, they'll likely have Lakeland or Kissimmee Osceola looming in the region finals.
Notable: Virtually all of the Cowboys' losses in their eight previous playoff appearances have been lopsided. They've scored more than eight points only twice and lost by a combined score of 312-70.
Armwood (7-3)
Next opponent: Largo (10-0)
Playoff outlook: It's difficult to know what to make of the Hawks after an uncharacteristically mediocre regular season (by their recent standards). The first three rounds are fraught with potential losses, from Largo in the opener to a rematch with Hillsborough, who beat them in the regular season, to top-ranked Gainesville in the region final. If they make it out of this region, the Hawks are legit.
Notable: The Hawks haven't lost so much in the regular season since 2002, which was also the last time they failed to advance past the region semifinals.
Hillsborough (8-1)
Next opponent: Osceola (7-3)
Playoff outlook: The Terriers open at home with the Warriors, who are solid but nothing like what awaits in the next round —undefeated Largo or a rematch with Armwood. If Hillsborough gets past the region semifinals, consider the season a success.
Notable: In five postseason appearances since 2006, Armwood has eliminated the Terriers four times. The other team to knock them out? Largo in 2009.
Robinson (9-1)
Next opponent: Atlantic (8-2)
Playoff outlook: Coming off their first loss of the season, the Knights won't have long to dwell on the defeat. Atlantic shouldn't pose much of a threat, but there's a possible rematch with Lakewood in the next round. If they survive that, unbeaten and virtually untested Pasco could be waiting in the region final. Regardless, Robinson is capable of a deep run — if not a state championship.
Notable: Robinson is making a school-record fourth consecutive postseason appearance. The Knights have won at least one playoff game in each of the previous three years.
Tampa Catholic (8-2)
Next opponent: Fort Meade (8-2)
Playoff outlook: The Crusaders, fresh off (another) crushing defeat to rival Jesuit, must rebound in time for a trip to Fort Meade. The Miners have won five straight, including routs in the past three by a combined score of 117-11. Clearwater Central Catholic or Frostproof would be up next. Get past them? Then a likely matchup against defending 3A champion Delray American Heritage awaits in the region final. That's a lot to ask of any school, in any class.
Notable: Dating to the start of its 13-game losing streak to Jesuit, Tampa Catholic is 4-4 in the first round of the playoffs since 1999. The Crusaders have fared better in recent years, winning four of the past five playoff openers the week after a defeat to the Tigers.
Carrollwood Day (9-1)
Next opponent: Moore Haven (9-1)
Playoff outlook: The Patriots will have their hands full with Moore Haven, which features versatile speedsters Barrion and Darius Cohens. If they manage to get past the Terriers, then the likely opponent is undefeated Naples First Baptist, which has outscored opponents 434-96 this season. To put it another way: the Patriots have had a great season, but it probably won't last much longer.
Notable: This is Carrollwood Day's first playoff appearance since starting up an 11-man team in 2008.

What's Cooking -- January 20, 2012
Chef Robert Barral from Cafe Provence in Brandon joins us this morning with a tasty dinner dish.
Seared Asparagus Speared Scallops on saffron risotto, basil & garlic lobster broth
Recipe for 4 people
12 scallops 20-30ct
1 bunch Asparagus (medium)
3 oz Vegetable oil
2 cups Arborio Rice
1 pinch Saffron
½ Spanish onion
½ cup White wine
2 quarts Water or vegetable stock
1 cup Heavy cream
½ cup Fresh spinach
½ cup Asiago cheese
2 cups Tomato filets
½ cup Diced Spanish onion
10 oz Lobster broth
2 tsp chopped garlic
3 oz vegetable oli
2 oz Butter
½ Lemon juice
Lobster broth:
2 heads of Lobster shells
½ Onions
1 Carrot
5 Whole cloves of garlic
2 sticks of Celery
1 small can Tomato paste
1 cup White wine
1 bunch fresh basil
Chop the raw lobster shells and sear them in a pot with smoky hot vegetable oil. Make sure the carcasses are red on all sides then add the chopped vegetables and keep searing in the oil with the lobster carcasses until they get a little bit of color then deglaze with white wine. Reduce the wine then cover the carcasses with water. Add the tomato paste, the salt and let simmer very gently for 45 minutes. At the end of the cooking process, strain the liquid out of the pot, (remove lobster carcasses and vegetables and only save the broth). Steep one bunch of basil for thirty minutes or until broth gets cold. Remove basil and store until ready to use.
Prep the scallops:
Blanch the asparagus in a boiling pot of water with salt. As soon as cooked shock them in an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
Cut the asparagus on the bias in two pieces long enough to go through the scallops and show enough of it on both sides.
Take a skewer or a pair of tweezers to go through the scallops from the side. Once the whole in the scallop is made penetrate the scallop by the end of the asparagus and push it in until both sides are equally sticking out. Repeat until all scallops are ready. (3 scallops per person).
Make the saffron risotto:
Steep the saffron in a cup with white wine. (Saffron will soften up and releases its flavor better this way). Sweat the diced onions in a pot with vegetable oil until translucent. Deglaze with white wine, let it cook for a couple of minutes then add the rice. Mix well with the onions and start adding the hot liquid to cover the rice. Boil until almost completely evaporated then add more and repeat the same thing until the rice is cooked and doesn't take more liquid.
Finish the risotto with the heavy cream, baby spinach Asiago cheese salt and pepper.
Keep the risotto hot.
Make the sauce:
Place the crushed tomatoes, garlic and lobster broth in a pan, add the salt and bring to the boil for short period of time, just enough to cook the chopped garlic. Add a small piece of butter and a few drops of lemon.
Finish the dish:
Place the scallops on a piece of paper towel to absorb unnecessary moisture. In the meantime Heat the oil in a pan. As soon as it is smoking hot place the scallops in the pan and cook them until both sides are golden brown and the center still soft and moist.
Place the saffron risotto in the center of the bowl. The three scallops nicely arranged on top then ladle the sauce all around the risotto. Finish the dish by placing more asparagus pieces in the sauce as a garnish and serve immediately.

A jury has awarded a Georgia woman $3 million over her husband's heart attack, finding that his doctor should have warned the Atlanta cop against strenuous activity like the three-way sex he was having at the time he died, WXIA-TV reports.
William Martinez, a 31-year-old Atlanta police officer, collapsed and died while he and a male friend were having sex with a woman who was not his wife at an Atlanta airport motel in 2009.
The jury on Friday found that Dr. Sreenivasulu Gangasani and the Cardiovascular Group were 60% to blame for Martinez's death from atheroschlerotic coronary artery disease, agreeing with the plaintiff that the doctor did not properly diagnose and treat Martinez for high blood pressure, chest pains, shortness of breath and irregular heartbeat.
They also charged that Gangasani did not warn Martinez to avoid strenuous physical activity until more tests could be done.
"The type of sex that he was engaged in is the type that's totally unacceptable to our community," said Martinez family attorney Rod Edmond on Friday. "But the fact of the matter is this man could have died running on the treadmill, running after a criminal."
Last week, a Gwinnett County jury agreed, finding Gangasani "negligent." But their verdict form also found William Martinez 40% responsible for his own death.
That shared responsibility reduced the award to his widow from $5 million to $3 million, WXIA-TV reports.
Gangasani's attorney says the doctor intends to appeal the verdict.

Hello All,
I need some advice on trying to secure my last pay check from my previous employer.
My previous employer filed for Bankruptcy the day after I quit. On my last day( I had not clue that this was impending) my HR set up an exit interview and told me that my last pay check including my accrued vacation hours will be paid out in the next pay roll period. Today they are out of business and I am not sure how I should handle this situation. My company owes about $3k plus in payments to me. Kindly advice.
I have written an email to HR but I am not sure if HR will answer me anymore.

IXO and LISA are dead and disbanded as NASA missions.
We are looking at a very thin pipeline and few new missions for a while, unless there is drastic new direction from above and strong guidance on funding.
NASA is a mission oriented agency.
This is especially true of Astrophysics.
At any given time, there are operating missions, missions in development, and planned future missions, each at various stages of effort.
Each mission successfully launched has a nominal operating lifetime, after which it may be considered for an "extended mission", if possible.
NASA tends to have catastrophic successes, if the missions succeed at all, in that missions often operate way beyond their nominal lifetime, and if extended require continued Mission Operation and Data Analysis (MODA) funding.
This is cumulative, and gets expensive, even with marginal cost savings in later years.
On the other hand, shutting down a functioning mission seems kinda wasteful…
Operating missions are periodically reviews through the Senior Review process, most recently done in 2010.
- Operating astrophysics missions reviewed
- Planck – cosmic microwave background – European
- Chandra – x-rays
- Warm Spitzer – infra-red – ran out of cryogen
- Swift – γ-ray/x-ray/optical
- XMM-Newton – European x-ray
- WMAP – cosmic microwave background
- Suzaku – x-ray Japanese
- GALEX – ultra-violet
- RXTE – x-ray timing
- INTEGRAL – γ-ray – European
- Warm WISE – infra-red – ran out of cryogen
Recently, WISE, RXTE, GALEX got shutdown orders.
WMAP stopped taking data in 2010 but has 2 years for continued analysis.
NASA contributions to XMM, INTEGRAL and Suzaku are stopping.
Swift is taking a huge cut to MODA.
Chandra will take a small cut, and Planck will continue to receive a small NASA buy in
Operating missions are:
- Hubble – through 2014
- Fermi – γ-ray – through 2013
- Kepler – exoplanet transit – through 2012
- Herschel – infra-red – European
Er, that's it.
Fermi and Kepler may be extended.
Hubble has a finite lifetime – depends on solar activity, more active the Sun, the hotter the upper atmosphere of the Earth and higher drag, the shorter the lifetime.
Sun is currently quiet, too quiet.
Hubble also has finite life expectancy for gyros, power and electronics.
In development are:
- NuSTAR – high energy x-ray, near flight
- GEMS – x-ray polarimetry, going into readiness review
- Astro-H – x-ray Japanese
- JWST – large infra-red
- ST7 – small technology demonstrator, European
There are also some ground bases telescope project buyins,
and Sofia – an infra-red telescope on an aircraft.
In the development pipeline are:
- IXO – large x-ray observatory, in collaboration with Europe
- LISA – large space based gravitational radiation observatory, in collaboration with Europe
SNAP JDEMW-FIRST – large infra-red telescope with dual goals to measure dark energy/large scale structure, and find exoplanets through microlensing – top ranked by the recent decadal survey
- JWST – the Next Generation Space Telescope, infra-red large telescope
- TPF – exoplanet imager/spectroscope – large telescope
- Explorer mission To Be Named Later (small mission) – maybe more than one…
TPF was pushed to the back of the line for various reasons and is currently very much a concept rather than a mission, but chasing very hot science
JWST is a budget disaster, way over budget and late.
JWST has been taken out of the Astrophysics division, with its notional budget, and stuck out there as a separate line item. It has a strictly pro forma budget in NASA's plans, and Congress needs to make a decision on whether to ramp up its funding, delay it or cut it completely.
It is hung out there as an awfully tempting ~ $2G chunk that would make a high profile target for would be target cutters.
W-FIRST is the notional priority, based on the decadal recommendation for rescoping the pre-existing JDEM (Joint Dark Energy Mission – joint with DoE) mission concept.
W-FIRST is a concept right now, not a spec'd mission.
JDEM had jumped previous mission priorities in a mid-decade review, last decade, but languished since.
IXO is a rebranding of the long wished for next large x-ray observatory. Previously Con-X.
LISA has been a mission concept for 14+ years. For much of that time, ESA has been under the impression that it is an approved mission with a target launch date, and a formal memorandum of understanding to that effect.
NASA, not so much.
Anyway: so now Astrophysics division has formally deleted LISA and IXO from the development queue.
That means science teams go home, development stops, done.
W-FIRST has no funding wedge – JWST and HST operations eat all the money.
So even though it is a priority, there is no devlopment ramp up and no launch date.
Everything now waits on JWST.
Europe, ESA, is taking its ball home and rethinking its own priority list for large missions.
They tend to take the "turtle" approach, and will continue on their way, and hopefully launch something.
NASA has to
a) wait to hear what budget they have and when
b) completely reprioritize everything in Astrophysics.
Possibly literally everything, if JWST gets deleted by Congress, which is a definite possibility.
So, whole careers are thrown out the window, there are people who spent 10-20 years on the mission development – there is also very little left in the NASA pipeline, there could be just 1-2 operating missions by 2015, and a gap of several years before anything flies, depending on the budget they get, failure of current missions and developing missions keeping to their timeline.
A lot of scientists are supported by the MODA funding of these missions, and a lot of that is looking to go away.
On the other hand, NASA will, hopefully, have some Astrophysics funding, and hopefully something will fly eventually, or be extendable and extended…
The Committee on Astrophysics and Astronomy (NRC) will be set up again, maybe with some fresh blood, and new concepts and priorities will be evaluated.
There are clearly opportunities in this crisis, as is often the case.
Short term, this will be very very painful.
Medium term, there is very high uncertainty with some opportunities.
Long term, hard to predict…

Been eating one meal around 5 PM for months now, high fat, moderate protein and very low carb. I have a cup of coffee (12oz) in the morning with half and half and a teaspoon of sugar and I am fine for most of the day. I might nibble on something in the early afternoon, not a meal though. Fat adapted, don't really get hungry. I always stop when I think I am hungry and ask myself: Am I REALLY hungry and the answer is no...my tongue desires stimulation is all.
No announcement yet.
Anyone Else Eating Just One Meal A Day?

Primal/Paleo is not for everyone, it's for those who have committed to understand.
READ THE BOOK! ...as Robb Wolf says: "Trying to convince people to save their own ass will burn you out."
Vegetarians are the enemy of everything good and decent in the human spirit, and an affront to all I stand for -- the pure enjoyment of food.� Anthony Bourdain
and yes, calories DO count my little piggies
Originally posted by Graycat View PostI started this experiment 3 days ago and I'm curious what to expect. Is anyone else eating just once a day?
I'd eat about 1200 calories at 5 pm. and that's it. I am very active and exercise 5 days a week and I also keep it low-carb (have for over a year). So far I am not hungry until late in the afternoon. Any thoughts?
I've been doing this for about 7 months now. I also eat my one meal at 5 pm., plus I drink water and very weak black coffee throughout the day. My weight was 235 lbs. when I started, and I'm down to 167 lbs. I was 155 in high school, so I'm "almost back to where I started from" as an adult - before all the years of mindless over-eating and driniking. I can tell by the small amount of flab left on my mid-section that I'll probably be right about 155 again, once I get rid of the remainder of my usless fat. It's just really sad, the way we Americans are making ourselves so sick because of our national food addiction. I'm so happy I decided to do something about mine. I plan to eat this way for the remainder of my life.
My only concern, at least at this point, is that there are supposedly some studies that say eating this way causes your blood pressure to increase, which seems counter-intuitive to me. I'm going to break out my blood pressure machine tomorrow and see if this is true in my case.
Originally posted by SeanM View PostI've stopped worrying about it. I eat when I'm hungry and I stop when I'm not.

And that's why I'm here eating HFLC Primal/Paleo.
I did a couple months of GOMAD, now I'm back to OMAD (Gallon of Milk a Day to One Meal a Day. Yup, I did think of it all by myself). I gained 25 lbs in about 2 months on GOMAD and 5/3/1. Now I'm still doing 5/3/1, training my rear off to get ready for an upcoming competition, and have lost all but 10 lbs. I'm probably leaner than when I started the bulk-up though. Maybe 12% body fat. And I really look forward to my Onemeal. (Decided calling it "lunch" was disingenuous).
I do eat 2 meals on the weekends. Because I want to.The Champagne of Beards
OMAD is a cool name!Few but ripe.
I end of doing variations of what a lot of 'one meal per dayers' are doing. I generally eat my meals, could be 1 or 2 between 4p and 8p. Bulletproof coffee and tea are also part of it. Sometimes none up to my feeding window, sometimes both. But the light 4p 'breakfast' is necessary a lot because if I skip that first part I am really really hungry around 6-7p and feel like I bang down too much at once...that 4-8 spacing is really necessary for me to feel satiated. Its not technically a meal, but that grass fed butter and coconut oil in the morning/early afternoon is the key for me to one meal per day.
Its odd, but I am at the point where a true morning breakfast doesnt make me feel great...TMI, but especially so if the morning BM hasnt occured either...haha
It's really interesting reading all the replies. I was experimenting with one daily meal back when I started the thread. I still eat that way at least 3 days a week. The rest is usually 2 meals within 6 hour window.
To tell the truth I haven't noticed any difference in body comp, but I'm totally cool with maintaining at this point. Oh, and for me IFing has totally kicked the constant cravings and hunger to the curb.

ExpertiseMolecular mechanisms of memory storage; the role of brain oscillations; the molecular and network basis of schizophrenia
ProfileWork in the Lisman laboratory deals with the mechanisms of memory and with schizophrenia. A major goal is to understand the molecular mechanism by which memory is stored at synapses. We are testing the hypothesis that a complex between the enzyme, CaMKII, and the NMDA channel is the basis of memory storage. Other work on memory deals with the roles of brain oscillations in working memory. These oscillations appear to provide a code by which multiple memories can be organized and communicated between brain regions. Finally we also investigate the role dopamine in memory on Alzheimer's disease model in mice. A second major goal of the laboratory is to understand the brain processes that are abnormal in Schizophrenia. One manifestation of the disease is an abnormality in brain oscillations. We have identified the thalamus as a site where this abnormality originates and are working to understand the molecular and cellular mechanisms involved.

text: hey guys, i have a ton of songs that don't have the album info in the ID3 tags. The artist and song title is present. im looking for the best and free way to get itunes album artwork for them? i was using the rinse trial but that one only lets you get artwork/rename albums for 100 songs. is there another alternative to this? thanks for the help.

Methods I Use
First check over the plane and look for cracks and other damage and make sure it's worth the effort to save. The two most common places for cracks is the corners of the mouth and they run backwards and this is real common on low angle block planes.. The most common is cracked cheeks and they often happen at the humps.. The either run from the mouth up the side of along the sides where the frog seat meets the sides
the plane and put all the parts in a shoe box, I like to use the plastic types you can buy at a dollar stores, most times the body will not fit but all the other parts will.. If you have some stuck screws use some penetration oil and let it sit for awhile and I'll use a pair of vise-grips on a screwdriver shaft and most times that will do it.. Don't use pliers on the brass adjuster most times just a rag on oil will do the trick if you take you time..
Rusted Screws? Aero Koil is the best rust buster its from KanoLabs.Com
Let this stuff sit for a few days and spray it a few times a day.. Dont strip the head, get a screwdrive that fits well..
That I use is a 1/4"ratchet with a screwdriver tip or vise grips in a screwdriver shaft..
A old Yankee right angle ratchet works but is really to much to use it all the time as the Yankee will fail in time.. Some times a cheap $1.00 right angle screwdrive they sell at the counter of a auto store I use some times..
PS and heat the plane in oven to 160º - 200º or a small torch.. On the Yoke Plate for the frog adjuster screw I hit back and forth side to side a few times and this looses it up most of the time..
Cleaning Method One
Check out my page on Electrolysis
I don't use this method unless the plane has heavy rust and I want to make sure it don't come back as it does some time just wire wheeling it away..
Cleaning Method Two
This is my many method for removing rust.. I use it for all the mall screws and lateral levers and I also try to get as much of the dept adjuster stuff as I can holding the yoke forward and back while I buff the opposite end..
I using a Harbor Freight buffer with a 8" stainless steel fine wire wheel (.010 -.014 wire size ) This is the first tool I would say to buy... Attention! Always is eye protection with wire wheels, a piece and break off and stick in your eye very easy..
Cleaning Method Three
I use Tal-Strip Paint Remover I get from Advanced auto.. This stuff works much better that the stuff pictured I bought at H-D I also use Lacqure Thinner to clean up the stripper.. I also use just lacqure thinner if I am out of stripper as it is not cheap... This is a take your time operation and let the stuff do the work for you.. I may add some type of stripper 2-4 times before I am happy with scrapping what is left off with a screwdrive...
Magic Polishing Wheel
For polishing the the machined metal parts I use a 3M de burring wheel called some times called a magic wheel.. You can find them at MSC,in case the web page changes search for DeBurring Wheel , I use a A/O Fine Grit with a 7 Hardness althought eBay is a great place to fine these at bargain prices...
I use a fine grit but Medium also works OK and can be bought to fit most any grinder or buffer. I use this to polish all the screw heads and lever caps, lateral levers and sole and cheeks after sanding.. I also may belt sand a lever cap and body if it is pitted first before polishing with the de burring wheel..
HF Sand Blaster about $19.99
I like to sand blast most all the parts as it removes the rust where most every other method can't reach.. I use play sand from a hardware store and use a kitchen strainer to catch the less than 1% of sand that doesn't pass through.. If I don't I'll get a clog I'll have to clean every load or two..
After all Cleaning
I like to tape up the screws and lateral levers as you can see in the images.. I also run a piece of tape over the frog base.. All the other surfaces I like to use the wire wheel to remove the over spray.. I do tape up both sides of a Bedrock frog seat and I use a pocket knife and a flat head screw driver to scrape off the paint on the frog seats on the body.. I like this method better than tape and the scraping removes and rust and leaves a nice clean surface..
Rough Shape
Here is a before image
Apart and Ready to Clean
Before shot with plane apart..
All Finished, Ready To Use
Here is a re-finished plane.. I don't call the restored because they are not, I would only clan then to call the restored..
Parts Ready To Assemble
All Cleaned and ready japan or assemble..
Notice the nice mirror reflection on the sole..
