Heineken is gearing up for a product launch in Australia this month. But exactly what the product is, the brewer is not saying...

Hoosier Park: Gulf Coast Special back for Miss Indiana
EmailGulf Coast Special, who has spent the better part of this year in Texas, returns home to Indiana on Friday night as the likely favorite in the $45,000 Miss Indiana Stakes for statebred 2-year-old fillies at Hoosier Park at six furlongs. Sold for $30,000 at the Fasig-Tipton 2-year-olds in training sale at Lone Star Park last April, Gulf Coast Special made her debut for trainer Danny Pish at Retama Park on Oct. 20 and eked out a neck victory after pressing a swift pace and dueling through the stretch with the runner-up, Superior Thief. The only open maiden winner in the Miss Indiana field, Gulf Coast Special has a Beyer Speed Figure of 71, the highest earned by any filly in the field. Rodney Prescott picks up the mount on Gulf Coast Special, who seemingly has the speed to lead the field gate to wire. Lil Mai Tai and Larry's Love, first and third, respectively, in the City of Anderson Stakes last month, once again figure to draw support. Lil Mai Tai drew off in the stretch to win the City of Anderson by two lengths, while favored Larry's Love was forced to alter course twice in the stretch and finished more than three lengths behind Lil Mai Tai. Recent maiden winners Rachel Wiggles and Ring Ring Ring may get in the mix with mild improvement. Rachel Wiggles won her debut by more than 11 lengths, while Ring Ring Ring retains the services of jockey Orlando Mojica, the runaway leader in the Hoosier standings.

Isolated showers and thunderstorms were located in north and central Arkansas and in northeast Oklahoma. The storms in Oklahoma will move into northwest Arkansas later this evening.

More overpriced apartments unaffordable to many who work in Lichfield, bravo.
Plans have been drawn up to convert a former cinema in Lichfield city centre into apartments.
The Tamworth Street building had once been the Regal Cinema, but was last in use as a Kwik Save supermarket.
There had previously been plans to create a hotel, bar and restaurant on the site.
But developers now want to create a four-storey block which would have a mix of one and two bedroom flats with shopping units on the ground floor.
Drawings of the new-look building also show that much of the historic frontage of the building will be retained.
A statement supporting the planning application said: "This building would appear to have detriorated beyond straightforward and economical restoration and reuse.
"Ultimately, the site, while it is located within the conservation area, has little to contribute to the historical importance of the city – with the possible exception of the former cinema facade.
"The site currently is a very poor quality environment and is in urgend need of redevelopment.
"Retaining the former cinema facade, combined with improvements to the site are considered key to encouraging a sense of pride within the local community and also to reintegrating the site."
The cinema was built in 1932 and showed its first films – The Old Man and The Beggar Student – on July 18 of that year.
It was designed by Birmingham architect Harold Seymour Scott and had an auditorium seating 1,300 people.
The cinema's final showing came on July 10, 1974, with a screening of The Big Boss starring Bruce Lee.
The developers added: "The application proposes housing development in the very sustainable and accessible location of Lichfield city and also provides a retail focus within the commercial centre of the city.
"It will contribute to the council's efforts to redress the imbalance in accommodation size by postively contributing to the delivery of smaller properties.
"Given its city centre location, the proposal positively contributes to reducing the overall need to travel and while making provision for off-street parking, also optimises the choice of sustainable modes of travel, particularly walking, cycling and public transport."
Full details of the proposals can be seen on Lichfield District Council's planning website.
More overpriced apartments unaffordable to many who work in Lichfield, bravo.
A prime site, hopefully the quality will do the city proud.
No doubt it will be along the same lines as that architectural monstrosity next to minster pool ,no thought once again for affordable housing or perhaps thus is the housing for our refugees
Stop moaning ^ would you prefer this building to stay run down and out of use? There is also enough affordable housing in Lichfield that it doesn't hurt to have a little luxury here and there…
I agree Jay. This city centre site is not the place for so called affordable housing. This site deserves to be high priced and I'm sure they'll be snapped up. Lichfield in my opinion should continue to be an aspirational City.
Wouldn't it be suited better as something for all, Barton have a beautiful red carpet cinema, puts the Garrick's design to shame ,couldn't this be used as such a project keeping it in sync with the city's historical past ,I remember when Garrick's theatre was forgotten and a Wilkos shoved in its place what a disgrace ,where's the affordable housing fir young Lichfield people prey tell.
There are plenty of houses in the Lichfield area between 100 and 200k. What price is affordable? There is already a cinema being built in Lichfield as part of Friarsgate.
Very few suitable for growing families and lets take in to account the matter of large down payments ,the friars gate the empty electoral promise of how may years ? That will just be another carbuncle on an otherwise beautiful city utilise what we have,restore,renovate dint let these period buildings go to waste
Friarsgate is just updating what is already there. Removing the eyesore which is the Ford garage and improving the sorry site which is the bus station.
We shall see if it gets off the ground or ends up like the precinct why the water feature was removed from there is beyond me and the tacky green covering installed ,its time planners and developers took in to account the historical value of what's around them instead of a quick buck,lets hope they do Lichfield the justice it deserves .

HighBall one of the best Halloween costume parties
USA Today compiled a list of costume parties that are some of the best in the nation. These are not your average dress up parties. At these, the costumes take weeks to make and are worn by models. HighBall was voted onto the list because of its blend of "couture fashion with creative costumes at an event attended by more than 40,000." The event shuts down High Street on Oct 24-25 and has runway shows, happy hours, music and of course the fabulous Nina West will be making an appearance. Compared to Mardi Gras and Carnival, HighBall is a massive tribute to both the trendy, beautiful and odd.Read the USA Today list

Greek Lamb Turkey Burgers
Be the first to review
READY IN: 22mins
Recipe by mikey ev
from Cooking Light. Super tasty and healthy burgers! I thought they were a little small (so if you're making them for really hungry people, count on this recipe maybe giving you 4 servings). Other than that, the flavor and texture was amazing. I served it on Melhada rolls with some spinach and tzatziki sauce. Cooking Light suggests serving it in a pita.
See Discussion:
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1⁄2 cup reduced-fat feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 2 teaspoons grated lemon rind
- 2 teaspoons fresh oregano, chopped
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 3⁄4 lb lean ground lamb
- 3⁄4 lb ground turkey breast
Directions See How It's Made
- Prepare grill.
- Combine all ingredients being careful not to overmix. (I found it helpful to use a rubber spatula to "cut" and fold the meat to combine).
- Divide mixture into equal portions, shaping each into a 1/2-inch patty.
- Place patties on a grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 6 minutes on each side or until a thermometer registers 165*.
- Remove from grill; let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Bluetooth headsets get a bad rap, but that's probably because they aren't normally emblazoned with Star Wars and Star Trek imagery. Actually, they might be nerdier and douchier than before now, but whatever…Star Trek and Star Wars Bluetooth headsets!
Indeed, these new headsets from Earloomz come in five nerdy varieties: Live Long and Prosper for Star Trek and Boba Fett, The Dark Duel, Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker for Star Wars. Check out the rest of the lineup after the break.

This calendar, created by Spanish designer Oscar Diaz, uses the capillary action of paper to draw ink out of the bottle. Designed to migrate across the sheet daily, the ink fills in each set of numbers with color to represent each day of the month. Different months are represented by a range of colors – greens and yellows in Spring, and reds in Summer. The ink calendar has been exhibited at various design shows around Europe – I wish it was actually in production!

What is Surrealism?
Surrealism is my favorite art movement (so far). Based mainly out of Europe and Latin America, Surrealism began in the 1920s, and spanned across multiple mediums, including painting, photography, sculpture, and theater. Often referencing the unconscious and subconscious, Surrealist art has a strange dream-like quality, pushing the boundaries of "normal" situations and combining images and scenes that are not often encountered in one space.
left to right: Salvador Dali, Meret Oppenheim, Max Ernst, (second row) Renee Magritte, Frida Kahlo, Jean Miro, (third row) Leonora Carrington, Man Ray, Leonor Fini
This season we have several pieces influenced by both modern and historical surrealist art, which Katy will post about this week.
In Celebration of Tiny Art Directors
If you've never seen the work of illustrator Bill Zeman and his daughter Rosie, you're in for a treat. At the request of his daughter, Zeman illustrates scenes that she dictates and lets her judge the results. Some pieces are grudgingly approved, others adamantly denied, as Rosie does her best to pull "good art" out of her father.
Tiny Art Director started as a blog, and was published as a book in 2010. While humor is the main goal of this work, Zeman also raises an interesting point about encouraging children to view art critically. Recently Rosie the Tiny Art Director has learned the best way to express something is to do it herself. How do children express their imaginary worlds? What art do they like and not like – and more importantly, why?
Cristobal Balenciaga Eizaguirre started his first fashion boutique in San Sebastian, Spain in 1918, at the age of 33. Following great success after the Spanish Civil War, Balenciaga relocated to Paris, where his revolutionary designs became hot commodities, dressing royalty and celebrities. Despite his move to France he never lost his love of Spain, and many of his earlier items were heavily influenced by flamenco dresses and historical Spanish garb.
Balenciaga never gave an interview during his career, and so for many existed as a man of mystery. After his retirement in 1968 the house of Balenciaga stopped all production until 1986, when Jacques Bogart re-opened it with the goal to create a new ready-to-wear line. Bringing designers from all over the world, the Balenciaga name is at the forefront of modern innovative fashion.
If anyone is visiting San Francisco between now and July 4th 2011, be sure to check out the De Young Museum's exhibition Balenciaga and Spain. This retrospective examines the ways in which Spain as a nation influenced Balenciaga's designs over the years.

- I have 2 dogs and white kitchen tiles - not a good combination and this little gadget I s an absolute godsend. I use it daily and it merrily does it's own thing although I have to steer it in certain places. It picks up a huge amount of debris and you can set it to perform whilst you are out. It is very simple to use and the dirt container holds a fair amount.
Fairly good value for money.
- −
- It does sometimes get stuck on kitchen stools and a rug we have, so you have to use the remote control to navigate it off. If you are out and it gets stuck it just turns itself off.
I tried briefly to use the mopping function but it was useless on my shiny tiles but the vacuum more than makes up for this.
My machine did break down after 2 months and I had to send it back to the manufacture who did replace it with a new model. While I didn't have it I really noticed a difference and missed not having it.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 2/10/2012 (1782 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Winnipeg Jet forward Evander Kane made his KHL debut Tuesday night in Dinamo Minsk's 2-1 loss to Lokomotiv.
Having arrived in Belarus on Monday, Kane -- wearing No. 98 -- had 17 shifts totalling 16 minutes and one second for Minsk, fired six shots, took one minor penalty and was one for two in the faceoff circle.
And in Czech Extraliga play, Jet netminder Ondrej Pavelec -- now with Liberec -- was lit up for four goals before being pulled midway through Tuesday's 6-4 loss to HC Slavia Praha. Marian Jelinek, Liberec's head coach apparently said this afterward, although Pavelec now has an 0-5 record with a 4.63 goals against average and 85.91 save percentage.
Alex Steen of the St. Louis Blues and born in Winnipeg, has been ripping up the Swedish Elite League since heading overseas to join MoDo. Steen had a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 2-0 win over the Vaxjo Lakers and how has eight points in four games.
Toby Enstrom of the Jets, who is practising with MoDo, has yet to suit up for the Swedish side and they might not add him to their roster. MoDo is waiting to see if more NHLers join the league before activating Enstrom.
NHL player movement, some rumoured, some confirmed:
-- Zdeno Chara, Boston, Lev Praha (KHL)
-- Jamie Benn, Dallas, Hamburg (German Bundesliga)
-- Matt Duchene, Colorado, Frolunda (Swedish Elite League)
-- Corey Potter, Edmonton, Vienna (Erste Bank Hockey League, Austria)
-- Patrice Bergeron, Boston, Lugano (Switzerland)
The KHL and ESPN3 have struck a deal that will see the American-based network televise games from the Russian league, including five in the next two weeks.
Not sure how that will play with diehard hockey fans, especially knowing the time difference between Winnipeg and Moscow, for example, is eight hours. TSN, Sportsnet and the CBC have not -- not yet, at least -- made similar arrangements.

Now that second year is done and dusted I have started my first of two work placements. I started as a Public Relations and Digital Marketing Intern at Atelier Studios, a digital marketing agency in Southampton, on Friday 9th May '14.
The first day I was thrown right in at the deep end by being given a client brief to work on. I had to generate a 6 month social media strategy plan for Varissa, a car sourcing website. I spent the day working with a fellow intern coming up with ideas. Atelier is a very chilled environment and they have a whiteboard wall where we could note down all of our tactics. It was a fun day getting to know everyone and putting together our ideas. We had to put everything we had come up with into a presentation to pitch to the client on the following Monday.
Day 2 was the client pitch which went really well. I wasn't too nervous as I have previously pitched for a live client for an assignment on my course, so I was able to relax and pitch confidently. We received positive feedback and praise for our ideas.
For the next 3 days I worked on a number of different projects for clients, which I found very interesting. I started by doing some social media critique for a 3D printing company local to the agency in Southampton called isodo3D. This was fun as I could look into what they could do to enhance their social media presence. I also did some Copy Writing editing for a flooring company, which gave me the chance to show my writing skills. I then moved on to writing content briefs for a number of different websites, such as SPS International; a headhunting company that wanted a content brief about headhunting within the fashion industry. I am not massively knowledgeable about the fashion industry so this gave me the opportunity to research and challenge myself with a new topic. I also wrote briefs for iac acoustics, which is a sound proofing construction company, giving me a chance to research into the building development industry. So far I am enjoying being able to work on many different projects within a range of industry's as it allows me to see what I am really interested in.
On day 4 I worked on SEO development of a website called Mr Nutcase and it's adjoining blog called The Real Mr Nutcase. I created meta title tags, meta descriptions, and blog content updates. Meta titles and descriptions is a skill I have learnt from the placement and it was very useful to be able to use what I had learnt with a real project. Atelier is a digital marketing agency, which is giving me the opportunity to stem away from just PR projects and learn more about website development and SEO. The next day I used SproutSocial to schedule content updates to a range of social media platforms for a company called Associated Pallets. Associated Pallets sell wooden and plastic pallets, so I found industry-specific content that could be published. I also did this with the flooring company previously mentioned and researched for content within the flooring industry to be posted. I had never used SproutSocial before so again this is a new skill I have learnt. During the day I also wrote some more content briefs for Associated Pallets.
And that brings us to today… I began the day by learning the basics of running a website health-check audit. This is completely new to me so it is a chance to learn new skills. This afternoon I will go over the health-check in more detail and learn more about SEO development.
I'm half way through my placement now and so far I am really enjoying my time with Atelier Studios and I look forward to working on more projects. Stay tuned for a follow up post about the second half of my placement.

"Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable" says mutli-talented artist Hosein Rad. His interesting approach to creativity mixed with his Persian family heritage has led him to do not only beautiful photographies, but also elegant Persian calligraphy. Hosein is an unusual and funny character, always inventive and open to others. His inspiration and his talent are delicious food to our eyes. He has been involved with Exhigone from day one and has been sharing with us some great art work that enlightened our walls. We met with Hosein just before we opened the doors at Exhigone 5. Here is what we talked about.
Can you give us some background about youself : where are you from? where have you lived?
I was born in Iran and for the last 17 years I have been living in London. I came here to do my degree, my PHD, and after that I stayed.
How did you start doing photography?
It takes me back t to about 35 years ago. I started stealing my mum's camera and taking photos with her camera. Every time she would send her film to develop she would be surprised because half of them were usually mine.
What do you like to take pictures of? How do you get your inspiration ?
There are a few things in which I am interested in. There are series in different projects I follow. For example I like street lamps so everytime I go out for photography and see one I take a picture, they are my interest. I do a lot of street photography. I like to take photos of people and then talk to them because you get to know their character and you understand them better. I also do scenery sometimes, when I have the opportunity to have the camera on tripod and do high dynamism range scene. It is when you take multiple shots of the same sort of scene with a different exposure and you mix them so they look like a painting. I did a lot of modern photography and I still do modern photography and fashion whenever I have friends that ask for it. And that is about it, almost everything!
Do you want to talk a bit about your calligraphy work? How did you start doing it and what does it mean to you?
Again, it takes me back to my childhood. I used to have a master calligrapher as my teacher. Calligraphy and Persian calligraphy especially is very rigid, it's got its own style and its very solid. As early as I remember I was thinking that people who are not actually from our background can't really understand it, understand the words. Also they were not so beautiful as abstract art, so a couple of years ago, going through depression like everybody else, I decided to start writing. I started developing my own hand and my main focus was to make them beautiful, even for people who can't read them. That is why they look very curvy. I broke up lots of rules. Persian calligraphy is done from right to left and I am doing mostly from up right to down left, so diagonally most of the time, and very often I just break the normality of the words and present it in a way that is appealing to eyes. So it is a bit different from a normal Persian calligraphy, not every Iranian can read it either.
How did you hear about Exhigone and how did you start being involved in it?
I used to go to the club where you had the first exhigone in, in Giglink. One of the night I was going to the club I saw you ad there and I thought "ok let's give it a shot". That is the sort of a concept I'd like to do myself for long. But you need people, it is a team work, it is not something you can do alone so I thought "let's get on board" and present a couple of piece, and from day one I was insisting on having photography and calligraphy side by side.
How could you describe your contribution in all of the shows?
I tend to do a new piece every single time that is on the theme of the exhibition. I try to do my best to do something new. We had really good ones, like the last one, the venue was good, like this one, and people really put a lot of effort into making it happen and it becomes more and more colourful.
What are you working on at the moment?
I am travelling from Monday for a couple of weeks. I am going back to see my parents mostly but this time I'm gonna take my camera to go on the street. It is not easy because people are not receiving very well the photographer. The establishement and the government both don't like it as well, but I am keen to go back and revisit my childhood and the places I was born and raised. I want to see how much of the past is still left there and how much of my memories are still there. I am a child of the revolution. I grew up during the revolution so I can relate to that and to those sort of times, but at the same time it is very nostalgic. A lot of it has changed because of modernism.
Can you tell us something that we don' know about yourself?
I am far more crazy than what you guys think…
Thank you so much for taking the time to answer our questions!

But my big contribution each Christmas breakfast is this crazy yummy Cinnamon Butter. I usually make this butter for Thanksgiving and stick the extra in small containers in the freezer to pull out for fun festive meals, such as Christmas breakfast. Just pull it out of your freezer the night before using and enjoy!
Also, if you want to be the favorite aunt, bring this Cinnamon Butter and a bag of rolls to your next family get together and your nieces and nephews will think you are the greatest aunt ever. Not kidding – at least when it comes to my brother's kids!
This recipe makes quite a bit. I adjusted the original recipe to make enough for a whole can of Sweetened Condensed Milk instead of just using some of it. I hated only using part of a can because I never knew what to do with the rest of it. It seemed a shame for it to go to waste. The good thing about making a lot of this butter is that it is great as a friend/neighbor gift, freezes great to use later for other festive meals, or use as favorite aunt bribery! Whatever this Cinnamon Butter's purpose, it is sure to be a crowd pleaser!
Cinnamon Butter
Makes 7 cups.
Combine in mixer until smooth:
2 c. Powdered Sugar
4 c. Butter, softened
14 oz. can Sweetened Condensed Milk
4 T. Corn Syrup
2 T. Cinnamon
1/4 t. Salt
Tips for Cinnamon Butter
- Freeze in small containers to easily use later for fun festive meals.
Cinnamon Butter goes great with:
- Rolls
- Fluffy Pancakes
- Swedish Pancakes
- French Toast
- Waffels

Government seeks to bring 'essential' broadband to all
Related topics
Broadband connectivity had become essential to Hong Kong's future but many small firms were slow in adopting information technology, government chief information officer Howard Dickson told a meeting of the ICT Industry Partnership Forum (IIPF) on Monday.
Hong Kong had a high level of internet connectivity, Mr Dickson said.
'Surveys conducted by the Census and Statistics Department last year revealed that internet connections were very common in Hong Kong - about 72 per cent of domestic households had PCs at home, and about 94 per cent of these PCs were connected to the internet,' he said. 'Broadband connectivity has become a necessity for business, home and leisure nowadays rather than a luxury.'
Mr Dickson predicted that broadband connectivity would bring new opportunities, increased productivity and also enhance Hong Kong's quality of life.
'We have therefore set out in our new Digital 21 Strategy - the vision to make broadband internet access available to all citizens in Hong Kong, regardless of whether they are at home or on the move using mobile facilities.
'We have also set a goal in our D21 Strategy of making internet as a utility service affordable by and available to every Hong Kong citizen.'
Mr Dickson noted that small and medium enterprises amounted to a significant portion of the companies in Hong Kong.
'However, IT adoption by SMEs is much lower than in large enterprises. According to Census and Statistics Department figures, 99 per cent of the large enterprises were using PCs, whereas the corresponding percentages for the medium and small enterprises were 86 per cent and 56 per cent respectively.
He said the same disparity was also observed in respect of internet connections.
'[Last year], 95 per cent of the large enterprises had Internet connections, whereas the corresponding percentages for the medium and small enterprises were 81 per cent and 52 per cent, respectively.
Mr Dickson said these figures reflected that information technology adoption and internet usage for SMEs were relatively low.
'And this phenomenon is usually attributed to the reason that not enough affordable industry software solutions are available to the SMEs,' he added.
