On August 4, 2011, Robert H. Gillette delivered a Banner Lecture entitled "The Virginia Plan: William B. Thalhimer and a Rescue from Nazi Germany." Among the Jews attempting to flee Nazi Germany in the 1930s were students of the Gross Breesen agricultural institute who hoped to secure visas to America. In a bold plan, Richmond department store owner William B. Thalhimer created a safe haven for the students on a Burkeville farm. This is the remarkable history of Thalhimer's heroic rescue mission and the struggle of the refugees to make a new home in rural America. In his new book, The Virginia Plan, Robert H. Gillette narrates a saga of sacrifice, survival, and hope on two continents. (Introduction by Nelson Lankford)

About DNA Clean & Concentrator™-100
The DNA Clean & Concentrator™-100 (DCC™-100) is designed for the rapid desalting and purification of up to 100 µg of high quality DNA from PCR, large format restriction endonuclease digestions, or cell-free lysates. Eluted DNA is suitable for nucleotide sequencing, array analysis, PCR, nucleotide blotting, restriction endonuclease digestion procedures, as well as many other downstream applications requiring high quality DNA. The entire DNA purification/concentration procedure typically takes less than 20 minutes and can be performed using a syringe, centrifuge or vacuum source together with a microcentrifuge.
|Spin Column
|DNA Recovery
|Typically, ≤100 µg total DNA can be eluted with ≥100 µl water or low salt elution buffer. For DNA 50 bp to 10 kb the recovery is 70-95%. For DNA 11 kb to 23 kb the recovery is 50-70%.
|Microcentrifuge and centrifuge, vacuum source, or syringe.
|DNA Size Limits
|50 bp to 23 kb
|Sample Sources
|DNA from PCR, endonuclease digestions, and cell-free DNA preps., etc.
|DNA Purity
|Highly purified DNA is eluted with water and is especially well suited for sequencing, ligation reactions, and restriction endonuclease digestions.
|Product Detergent Tolerance
|≤5% Triton X-100, ≤5% Tween-20, ≤5% Sarkosyl, ≤0.1% SDS
|Step 1
Transfer the sample mixture to the Zymo-Spin ™ V Column/Reservoir assembly1 inside a 50 ml conical tube.
Note: Ensure the connection between the Zymo-Spin ™ V Column and Reservoir is finger-tight prior to use.
|Step 2
Centrifuge at 500 x g for 5 minutes. Discard flow-through.
|Step 3
Add 2 ml DNA Wash Buffer to the Reservoir. Centrifuge at 500 x g for 5 minutes. Discard flow-through. Repeat wash step.
|Step 4
Transfer the Zymo-Spin™ V Column to a Collection Tube and, using a microcentrifuge, centrifuge at maximum speed (≥10,000 x g) for 30 seconds to remove any residual wash buffer.
|Step 5
Transfer the Zymo-Spin™ V Column into a new 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tube. Add 150 µl DNA Elution Buffer2 or water3 directly to the column matrix in the Zymo-Spin™ V Column. Wait for one minute to ensure that the column matrix has been fully hydrated prior to centrifugation at maximum speed for 1 minute to elute DNA.
Ultra-pure, concentrated DNA is now ready for use.
Product FAQs
Can you show it can clean up 50 bp fragments?
Can I use lower volumes of DBB for recovery of ss cDNA?
Two volume of Binding Buffer works fine in most situation. However, due to different buffer recipes and pH, especially after NaOH degradation of RNA in cDNA synthesis, we recommend to use up to 7 volumes of binding buffer for consistent yield and performance. There is no change in buffer and other components for this kit.
I accidentally added 2 vol. of EtOH instead of DBB to my samples (100 ul sample + 200 ul EtOH). What should I do?
Add 2 vol additionally of DBB to the mixture.
My samples are floating out of my gels, why and how can I prevent it?
Incomplete centrifugation of the columns after adding the wash buffer will cause this problem. Increase the centrifuge time (up to 1 minute or more) at maximum speed to ensure complete removal of the ethanol from the column.
I'm getting low recovery
Improperly Prepared/Stored DNA Wash Buffer
Make sure ethanol has been added to the DNA Wash Buffer concentrate. Cap the bottle tightly to prevent evaporation over time.
Addition of DNA Elution Buffer
Add elution buffer directly to the column matrix and not to the walls of the column. Elution buffer requires contact with the matrix for at least 1 minute for large DNA ≥ 10 kb.
Incomplete Elution
DNA elution is dependent on pH, temperature, and time. For large genomic DNA (≥ 50 kb), apply heated elution buffer (60-70 °C) and incubate for several minutes prior to elution.
Sequential elutions may be performed for quantitatively higher recovery but lower final DNA concentration. This is recommended for DNA ≥ 10 kb.
My A260/A230 Ratios are low
Column Tip Contaminated
When removing the column from the collection tube, be careful that the tip of the column does not come into contact with the flowthrough. Trace amounts of salt from the flowthrough can contaminate a sample resulting in low A260/A230 ratios. Ethanol contamination from the flowthrough can also interfere with DNA elution. Zymo-Spin™ columns are designed for complete elution with no buffer retention or carryover.
Following Clean-up with the DCC™, Multiple Bands Appear in an Agarose Gel
Acidification of DNA Loading Dye
Most loading dyes do not contain EDTA and will acidify (pH ≤ 4) over time due to some microbial growth. This low pH is enough to cause DNA degradation. Therefore, if water is used to elute the DNA, 6X Loading Dye containing 1 mM EDTA is recommended.
I am experiencing poor recoveries, do you have any tips?
1) Ensure that your entire sample flows through the column after each centrifugation.
2) Remember to empty the collection tube when advised.
3) Be careful that the tip of the column does not come into contact with the flowthrough when removing the column from the collection tube.
4) Extend the final wash spin by 1-2 minutes to ensure complete wash buffer removal.
5) Add your elution buffer directly to the column matrix, not to the walls of the column.
"I sampled this kit next to a kit we already use. I had three of the same sample, two for the Zymo kit and one for the other. On one of the ones designated for your kit, I accidentally added the sample directly to the column filter, then added other reagents (I figured I might as well try it). The other I did as per the instructions. The one on which I goofed gave a similar purification and concentration as the other kit, while the one I did properly yielded approximately four times the DNA per µL as the other kit. I am very happy with this result, and when I rerun my samples, I plan to use your product."
Rosalind P. (University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences)
"I like the enhanced design of the column as it funnels every drop of volume directly through the silica in a very efficient manner. The quick spin times and relative ease of use are also a big draw as it cuts down on processing time and allows the attack of subsequent enzymatic steps at a heightened pace."
Joseph R. (Miller School of Medicine, University of Miami)
"Almost no loss of elution buffer at the final step. It is quite impressive compared to the other kits I have used, which lose about 5-7µl."
Takashi K. (Monash University)
"It was a very simple procedure and it gave a concentration ten times the original amount."
Kimberly M. (University of Pennsylvania)
"It only took 2 minutes for the total procedure - shorter than my current method of PCR purification."
Marissa V. (Harvard Medical School)
"The elution volume is low enough to concentrate any sample very well and the efficiency is not compromised at all."
Shanshan L. (UT Southwestern)
"This kit performed as described. I was able to obtain good quality and yield of the DNA -better than with a couple of competitor's kits."
Kathleen B. (SUNY-ESF)
"The simple steps and washing instructions were excellent. DNA was ready for use for PCR and gave strong results."

Pat Robertson? That's too easy of an answer, of course, but I think evangelicals like Pat Robertson, James Dobson, and many others like them have created a Jesus that is ugly, scary, political, anti-gay, pro-Fox News–you know, they "created" Jesus in their own image.
This man who passes himself as a Liberal Christian writer, is a disgrace to the faith and should be ignored.: Nuff said!

10 Things you Need to Know When Buying a House in the UK with a Partner
The Debrief: We've got everything you need to know if you're thinking about stepping on the property ladder and buying a house with your partner in the UK.
Photo by Lily Brown
Buying a place with your partner can mark the beginning of the rest of your lives. It's an exciting time but you need to be prepared and fully informed. Here are 10 things you need to know when buying a house in the UK with a partner.
1. You need to have a thorough chat with your partner
It might sound obvious but most people who go into buying a house with their partner think of it as a romantic commitment rather than a serious financial commitment. Sure it's romantic. But stepping on the property ladder is not an easy thing to do and you have be committed to the whole buying a house process as you are to the relationship. Decide what exactly you're looking for as there are so many options when buying a house that if you don't have the same set goals as your partner, you could end up going crazy. Some things you need to decide on are: -
•Flat or house?
•Freehold or leasehold?
•New build or old build?
•Auction or estate agent?
•Shared ownership or shared equity options?
•Amount of deposit?
•Fixed rate, variable or other mortgage?
These are all things you need to have mutually agreed before embarking on buying a house. Have a look at our comprehensive list of 41 things you need to know when buying a house in the UK.
2. Decide if you want to be Joint Tenants or Tenants in Common
Firstly, know the difference between the 2.
Joint Tenants
A joint tenancy is when a house is bought and split equally between 2 to 4 people; each owns an equal share of the property. Joint tenancies are usually the preferred option for married couples and people in civil partnerships.
Things to consider before going into a joint tenancy:
•If one of you dies, the property (and mortgage) will automatically pass to the other owner (or owners) who will then be responsible for paying off the remainder of any mortgage debt.
•You either all pay cash or all get a mortgage. Even if only one person needs a mortgage, all of the tenants would have to take out a joint mortgage together.
Tenants in Common
Tenants in Common can be entered into by up to four people who could be friends or relatives who want to buy a property together. In contrast to joint tenancy, with tenants in common you don't have to own equal shares of the property. If you earn more than whoever you are buying the property with, you could agree (in writing, of course) that you will pay more towards the house and have a greater share.
Things to consider if you want to enter a Tenants in Common agreement:
•Since each owner can each act individually, they are free to leave their share of the property to a beneficiary in their will.
•If one of you dies, the house does not automatically get passed to the other owners - so make sure all wills are in place.
•Inheritance tax could still be payable (unless the co-owners are married or in a civil partnership).
•Co-tenants are allowed to mortgage their share of the property (although finding a lender who will fund them is very difficult as the lender wouldn't be able to simply repossess the property as they usually would as there are other owners involved).
Decide which agreement is best for you and make sure you enter into the relevant agreement.
3. Break-up… Hypothetically
Although a break-up is not a scenario that two people who are looking into buying a house together have at the forefront of their minds, you need to know what will happen if you do break up. Sure, you love each other, two salaries will give you better financial options (property and mortgage wise), and you'll never want to break up, but let's face it, we all know of someone who got stuffed financially after a break-up. Although we'd like to think it'll never happen to us, it's worth discussing and knowing where you'd both stand should things go pear-shaped.
4. You should get a trust deed
Also known as a Declaration of Trust or a Cohabitation Agreement, the trust deed takes care of important and touchy subjects such as:
•protecting the amount you have put into the property if each of you is contributing different amounts
•what happens if one of you stops paying the mortgage
•what happens if one of you wants to sell the property
•what happens if you sell the property
•what happens if you want to end the agreement
•how much notice you need to give to end the agreement.
The trust deed should be signed in addition to your Tenants in Common or Joint Tenancy agreement as a separate document entirely.
5. Know your rights
As a joint owner, both you and your partner:
•have an equal right to stay in the property
•have an equal right to return if ever you move out
•cannot evict your partner (or change the locks)
•need the consent and signature of the other to sell the property
•need the consent and signature of the other to raise a mortgage or loan against the property.
Make sure you know where you stand legally. Talking of which…
6. You'll need a solicitor
Since you'll need to hire a solicitor anyway for the whole buying-a-house process, employ them from early on to help draft your ownership agreement and trust deed too. Check out The Law Society for help in choosing the right solicitor for you.
7. You'll need life insurance
Life insurance is imperative in joint tenancy agreements because if one of you becomes ill, unemployed or dies, the other person is left with the remaining debt. Life insurance is designed to take care of the mortgage repayments in extenuating circumstances, so you can imagine, it's pretty important. Have a look at this guide to getting joint life insurance and also look into how you can save money on your life insurance which includes a list of the top insurance brokers in the UK worth getting quotes from.
8. It's hard work
The whole thing can be gruelling and can take its toll on you. 'We bought our house in 2014 and it was the most stressful thing I have ever done,' says Gail, a solicitor from Blackheath, London. 'We must have seen 30 places. We offered on 8 and got rejected on 7. You had to be on top of the estate agent 24/7 and then there would be 20 other people at the viewing the day the house came on the market. You'd offer asking and they would have at least 5 other asking price offers by midday, so the property would go to sealed bids. We had about 6 agents on speed dial and were calling them before properties hit the market.'
And this was from no lack of financial stability. 'We're both solicitors, and both on 6 figure salaries. We had lived with my partner's parents for a year and had managed to save up £80k for a deposit and £30k for stamp duty. We had a mortgage in place, no chain, were ready to move, and viewing and offering on everything, sometimes up to £30k over asking. But we could not get a property for love nor money. House prices were going up 15% over the course of the year in Blackheath. We were trying for a year, and we were getting nowhere.'
9. You both need to share responsibility in the buying process
And not just financially (that'll be taken care of in the agreements you'll sign). Make sure that you support each other emotionally too. 'We had to work together,' says Gail. 'It worked out well because I did most of the research and the negotiating but when it got very stressful, my partner was was able to swoop in and be firm with the agent. You need to be team.'
10. It's all worth it in the end
'When we walked into our flat, I just knew,' recalls Gail. "I couldn't talk and I couldn't believe how wonderful it was. When we left, I just said to my partner, 'that is our home. We have to get it'. And we did. And it's perfect.'

Mother & The Motion Cookies, A Family of Smart Devices for The Smart Home, Making Life Safer, Healthier and More Fun
Users Choose the Task to Monitor & Manage; Reprogram Individual Sensors for Multiple Needs ---- Now Available for Purchase at Amazon.com
New York, NY - September 24, 2014,-- Sen.se, a leading developer of smart, connected objects, introduces Mother & the Motion Cookies, a family of smart devices for the smart home, making life safer, healthier and more fun. Mother is now available for purchase at Amazon.com with free shipping anywhere within the United States. Mother can be found in Home Automation, one of Amazon's fastest growing and most exclusive departments.
Want to be alerted to a home intrusion, know your kids got home safe, count your steps to stay fit, be reminded to take your medicine, or make sure you always wake up refreshed? Users have the unique ability to not only choose what they want the smart sensors, called Cookies, to do, but each Cookie can then be reprogrammed and assigned other tasks over and over as needs and wants change, as they do in real life. It's that simple.
Mother is the only product on the market today that offers one sensor with multiple uses of the users choosing, as opposed to one device that can only handle one designated task. Ultimately, the data provided enables you to better manage and monitor daily activities and make changes to your behavior or routines as needed, improving your well-being and peace of mind.
"Until now, we have been living with a handful of smart connected objects, perhaps a computer, smart phone and maybe a fitness gadget, so learning and complying with these devices was possible," said Rafi Haladjian, Sen.se Founder & CEO. "However today, we're adding more and more smart objects to our daily life, making managing individual devices with one dedicated service both intolerable and impractical. Mother solves this problem by offering one device, with multiple reprogrammable applications and one data location. Mother can simultaneously take care of many areas of daily life that are of concern at the time, from health and fitness to the comfort, safety and well-being of your family."
How Mother Works
Mother is the central hub. For the initial launch, Mother will come about a dozen applications, with more added continually. Depending on what the user wants to track and monitor, they assign a Cookie to an application and program when to receive alerts and notifications - when something important happens or when it senses unusual activity or something urgent. The user can also program how to be notified - text message, push notification, email, phone call, or sounds and lights on the Mother device. Then place the Cookie on the object or person. The Cookies transmit data back to Mother. Mother then transmits the notifications as directed and sends all data to a customized Senseboard and showcased with unique visuals making it a fun and easy way to understand behavior.
Cookies were developed to blend seamlessly into life, and become part of normal routines without requiring attention and care. There are no buttons to push, no synchronization of data to be made, no on/off switches, no daily or weekly battery charging. Cookies are small and sleek and can be attached to almost anything (place it in a pocket, use putty or a strap or holder provided with the kit). Up to 24 Cookies can be connected simultaneously to Mother.
"Research shows that the fundamental weakness with smart objects is their users because the effort the devices require eventually outweigh the reward," offers Haladjian. "We believe it is time to connect life itself. We want our users to stop adapting life to the requirements of their devices and go through their daily routines as they always did: go for a walk, drink water, go to bed, feed the cat, while seamlessly benefiting from all the knowledge, peace of mind and comfort sensors can bring."
MSRP: $299 for a bundle including one Mother and one box of 4 Motion Cookies. Once a user has a Mother, they can order additional Motion Cookies. MSRP: $159 for a 4 Cookie Pack. Each box of Cookies also comes with three Cookie holders, two Cookie straps, four cell batteries and one spare (batteries will live for more than a year), one key ring attachment string and some sticky putty to easily affix and remove Cookies.
About Sen.se
Sen.se was founded in 2010 by rafi Haladjian and Franck Biehler. Its mission is to develop a new generation of smart objects destined to blend elegantly and unobtrusively into the lives of users while collecting meaningful data, continuously and over long periods of time. The company also aims to create and operate a platform with the capacity to collect huge amounts of data in real time from any source, more specifically from smart objects. The collected data will allow Sen.se to provide smart learning apps that continuously and seamlessly adapt to users' behaviour. For more information go to https://sen.se/ To purchase a Mother, go to Amazon.com.

Scream for Release
Late at night in the BG East arena, a darkly menacing figure filled with lust is on the prowl for another victim. But Drake Marcos doesn't know this. Having received a mysterious call to wait in the ring, he thinks this will be a match like any other. He has no idea how wrong he is!
Trying on gear in the middle of the ring, Drake has never looked better. His smooth babyface and lean muscles are only accentuated by all his other assets, assets on full display thanks to a nearly see-through singlet that leaves very little to the imagination. Drake himself can't resist feeling his supple ass through the sheer fabric, or cupping his more than ample package. Shuffling through his bag of gear, impatient after waiting so long for his opponent, Drake is done. "He's apparently not gonna show, so fuck it!" But just when he's ready to head home to safety, he hears a loud THUMP from the outer hall. "Hello? Is someone out there?" Drake nervously asked.
And then suddenly... DARKNESS!
The lights are off and it's pitch black. "What the fuck?" Drake has no idea what's happening, especially when he hears the heavy sound of chains hitting the mat. The lights return, and standing behind Drake is the the terrifying force of nature himself: Kayden Keller! He's chosen his next victim and he's here to collect.
Clutching his victim by the neck and throwing him to the ground, Kayden uses some of the extra gear to begin choking the life out of Drake. But the gear is too soft for Kayden, so he uses his own hands to continue choking Marcos, periodically bashing his head to the mat for good measure. But this is one victim that will NOT go down without a fight! Squirreling his way free, Drake locks on his own chokehold, determined to end this as fast as possible.
Getting Kayden up and into a full-nelson, Drake underestimates his opponent's strength as he is flipped down to the mat. With Kayden back in control, he makes sure to punish Drake for having the temerity to fight back. Locking his mammoth thighs around Drake in a crushing bodyscissors, the screams can be heard outside! But Drake keeps fighting back, throwing everything he's got at Kayden, from ab claws and ball claws to chokes and headscissors. Unfortunately, Kayden turns the headscissors into a powerbomb, temporarily ending any resistance and giving ample time to begin torturing Drake's balls. Then comes the nipple torture!
But Kayden didn't choose Drake Marcos to just bash his balls, twist and claw his nipples, choke him, or cause agonizing pain with submission holds. No, Kayden wanted something else. And with Drake tied helplessly in the ropes, Kayden gives a preview as he repeatedly smashes Drake's face into his swelling package.
Choking Drake out, an impatient Kayden strips the singlet from his opponent, revealing him in all his naked glory. Dragging his opponent up and into the corner, Kayden alternates between pain and pleasure, licking Drake's nipples before bashing his balls. Then, out come the chains! And this is only halfway into the match!
This is, hands down, one of the most erotic matches in BG East history. Before the night is over, it's not just nipples that are sucked! No cutaways, no fade to black. The action continues all the way to the exciting climax! Drake's Night of Terror may become a Night of Pleasure. And when all is said and done, Drake and Kayden won't be the only ones enjoying eruptions of joy!

Here is my finished "flimsy" of Jaybird Quilt design's pattern Raspberry Dessert. I used bright scraps and a solid black to make this quilt. I made it exactly as the pattern instructed and it finished 76.5" x 76.5"
This was such a fun pattern that I am now making a twin size in the rainbow colorway.
i love it ;)
This is so pretty, I like it much better than the original colorway!

text: Itanagar, Feb 25 (UNI) Believe it or not, a woman from Seppa under West Kameng district has delivered a 5.7 kg baby at Rama Krishna Mission Hospital here yesterday. This is the first time in the history of the hospital that a giant baby was delivered that too through normal delivery. Dr Moon Moon Das, under whose supervision the baby was delivered, told UNI that the baby was delivered through ventose extraction process and this was the first case in the hospital that such a large baby was delivered normally. On earlier occasions baby weighing around 5.5 kg was delivered in the hospital through caesarian operation, the doctor disclosed and added that one of his patient Yaki Noyu during December last year also delivered a another baby normally of around 5 kg.

Induction Lamps
Induction Lamps are lighting installations that use Induction
technology as its core base to provision illumination and power. Induction
Lighting is a versatile process where the energy is induced via an external

works well for large open Spaces with the requirement of a dim Intensified
Lighting effect. Parking garages, warehouses, Gymnasiums, Street
Lighting, Barns and Sport Stadiums prefer Induction Lighting over others, on
virtue of their steady lighting level and low maintenance of fixtures.
lamps are long lasting usually over 100,000 hours leading to lower maintenance
costs over time.
Commercially, there
are many variations of Induction Lighting Fixtures that are available in the
market. Induction Lamps pose as the illumination source for Induction canopy
fixture, Induction High bay fixture...and henceforth.
Induction Lamps
provide a comfortably sharp white Light with a luminous efficiency averaging
about 85 lumens per watt. They have an unwavering Light output and instant
restart capability. Their strong Visibility range and clean power factor make

Clay minerals are the most abundant minerals on Earth. Widely used in building materials and industry, they are components of bricks, concrete, and ceramics; they impart whiteness to paper; they serve as catalysts in chemical processes, fillers in pharmaceuticals, and stabilizing agents in the disposal of toxic and radioactive wastes; and they indicate the location of petroleum and natural gas reservoirs. Furthermore, a knowledge of the properties of these minerals is essential in agriculture and in making informed engineering decisions. In this text, the authors explore the applications and limitations of data produced by the interaction of X-rays with crystalline minerals. The treatment is informal but rigorous, combining theoretical discussion with recipe-like directions for laboratory procedures.

Few NFL offenses entered the regular season with more unsolved mysteries than Miami and Pittsburgh, so when the teams kicked things off Thursday at Heinz Field I half expected spooky theme music to be piped over the loudspeakers as the ghost of Robert Stack trolled the sidelines. Instead, we get Diddy and Rascal Flatts. Anticlimactic, methinks.
The game, blessedly, was anything but: lots of back-and-forth drama, surprising performances and crisp (mostly flag-free) action. Credit the coaching staffs -- especially the Steelers', who obviously had QB Charlie Batch ready -- and both squads' offensive lines.
The most difficult task for any Steelers opponent is finding the source of their pass-rush pressure in the 3-4. The Dolphins fared well in this area, routinely getting everyone blocked during the span between Joey Porter sacks early in the first quarter and on Miami's final series. A quick-hitting approach helped the line, but the end results still were pretty striking given the volume of pass plays.

text: Hi! I bought an old chandelier that I want to put in DD's room. I have painted it pink and will be hanging crystals on it. This is kind of hard to describe, so I will do my best. Around where the bulbs screw in, it is sort of like an old candle holder. The bulb screws in the middle and about 1/2 inch from the bulb, it has this little "cup" around the whole thing. I guess it would be like a really short cup and the light bulb goes in the middle. The sides come up about 1/2 inch. I want to attach flowers around the sides where the cup part comes up. How do I attach them? If I use hot glue, I am afraid that the heat from the bulb would soften the glue. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks! Jess

shoulderbroken (393) Tokyo, Japan | July 6, 2013
Maybe not worth coming here unless you want to tick off the experience, but I enjoyed it. They have a couple of taps and a handpump but that wasn't on when I was there.The Weizen tasted better here than it has anywhere else so that's a plus. I wanted to get a Minoh glass and fancied seeing the place so thought it was worth the trip and was not disappointed. Pretty small space with just a few seats at the bar, so I guess you are not really supposed to spend a long time here, but was good to pop in for a couple and get my glasses. They were happy to get me a bottle of the seasonal from out back to drink there so that was nice. Good prices too, and free nuts. Almost certainly can drink a bigger selection of Minoh beers at one of the beer belly bars but worth it for the experience.
KansaiBeerLvrs (527) Kyoto, Japan | January 23, 2013| Updated November 27, 2015
----This place is down the road from Minoh Warehouse and no longer has a taproom, you can check it out from outside but can't go in ---- I am surprised no one added this place yet. Up in north Osaka you'll find the Minoh Brewery which has an on-site bar. There you can get pretty much whatever beers they are currently making. If not in the fridge then they'll grab it from cases in the back but they may have to label it for you! Prices are slightly lower than in shops as you are getting the beer at the source and they have a few taps to enjoy some draft beer with some complimentary peanuts. The atmosphere is great with tons of Minoh Beer gear for sale, books on beer to read and lots of flyers/business cards about beer places all over Japan. The staff was friendly too. It may not be worth a special trip but if you live in Kansai it is definitely worth going to take a look at where Minoh is made. Plus nearby you can go for a walk in the woods and see a waterfall. All in all a good day out. Nearest station: Makiochi station

Here Come the Tests: iPad 3G Speed, Battery Life, GPS
Reviewers spent the weekend putting the new iPad Wi-Fi + 3G through its paces, with expected emphasis on the speed of the cellular data network. And while results so far have all been what you would expect - 3G throughput on an iPad is about the same as 3G throughput on an iPhone - most users seem to be reacting to the gulf between the speed of the iPad's CPU and the relative crawly-ness of a meg up and 100-200 kbps down. Somewhat more unexpected is the iPad's improved GPS reception and battery life.
Gizmodo got out first with detailed results comparing the iPad Wi-Fi + 3G with an iPhone 3GS, an iPad with WiFi, and the same iPad attached to Verizon's MiFi 3G "mobile hotspot." The iPad kept up with the iPhone 3GS, even beating it in some tests, and interestingly enough met or beat Verizon's 3G speeds. This is a pretty bad sign for Verizon's effort to lure iPad customers to their solution: even though the MiFi does offer the ability to share bandwidth with up to five devices - something tethering cannot do - the throughput is the same or worse while the monthly costs are much higher. Verizon insists on a two-year contract paying $60 a month with a 5GB monthly cap, while AT&T's unlimited deal is only $29.99 a month and you can cancel at any time. The iLounge testers found that it only took them a few hours of browsing around and playing with Maps to blow through 30MB of data, making any capped plan - be it AT&T's 250MB $15 plan or Verizon's 5GB for $60 - probably not worth it.
Both iLounge and Gizmodo found that GPS accuracy was much greater than the iPhone 3GS, though Gizmodo in particular complained about how long it took the iPad to achieve GPS lock. Once synced up, though, the iPad's GPS was both more precise and faster to update than the iPhone. The improved results are likely due to the higher performance Broadcom BCM4750UBG assisted-GPS chipset in the iPad WiFi + 3G, compared to the Infineon Hammerhead II used on the iPhone 3G and 3GS (the iPad WiFi has no GPS). Differences in the way the two chipsets implement MS-Assisted mode to establish location may account for the longer Time To First Fix (TTFF) on the iPad's Broadcom GPS.
Most reviewers found that battery life compared well to Apple's 9-hour brag: FOXNEWS's Clayton Morris got just under 10 hours with "heavy Internet use and video streaming," while iLounge was able to go 8:38 between charges. For road warriors looking to use broadband on the go, this is good information, though one hopes that the big, crystal-clear screen doesn't distract from driving.

text: Alright, to start, I'm tall and have a skinny but muscular build. I have trouble finding clothes that fit me well. I'd like to purchase a casual blazer/suit, that would serve different purposes.. I'd like the blazer to be slim-fit, black, and casual and light enough to wear with jeans. When looking locally, I found a couple that fit really well, but a sales clerk made a good point.. that I should buy matching pants with the blazer, in case I need to dress a little more formally. I'm not looking to buy an expensive suit. Anyway, both the pants that match those blazers are very baggy and really do not match the slim-fittedness of the blazer.. When I wear the blazer alone withi my jeans, it looks great. This is the first 'suit' I'm looking to buy. I rarely wear formal clothing. Would I just have to buy the pants and get them tailored, or should I be able to find a better blazer/pant combo that is more of the slim fit that I'd like? How important is it that the pants match the blazer, in case I just get a blazer without the pants. The blazers are dark without very noticeable patterns. I've heard good things about H&M, but I don't have one nearby. Next month I may be going to Las Vegas, so I may be able to drop by and see what they have available.. However, if they don't have anything I like or in stock, I'm not sure what to do. I'd like to have a nice, slim pair of formal pants to go with the blazer in case I need to dress up a little more than jeans. Anyway, thanks for any help.

Now for years I've convinced myself that I'm not a lipstick person and that it doesn't suit me at all. But when I started working at Lush, I found the Emotional Brilliance range. For those who haven't seen this magical invention, it's basically a big colourful wheel where the colours have been linked up to lots of different words to represent them. Basically it's meant to be if you're wearing the colour Confident, you'll feel more confident. It's really empowering. The colours can be used as anything, lip, cheek, eye shadow, eye liner, mascara and even face paint if you really want. Some people often wear them in the hair as well, and they just wash out like a temporary dye.
It's seriously like the God of all make-up and they're only £14.50 each, most of mine have lasted over 9 months now!
In my Everything Lush post I listed that I had 8 of these. My favourites are the black eyeliner – Independant. As I wear it everyday.
My favourite lip colours are Perspective and Confident, but I like to mix them up.
I normally where the gold, Fantasy, or silver, Success, on my eyes smeared in so it's really light with the black eyeliner. Here's a couple pictures of me in the different lip colours, which can also be used as a blusher!

The smile is on his face whether it's for bogey or birdie, casual round or major championship, friendly wager or life-altering payday. Matt Kuchar cashed in at last year's Honda Classic, earning a big check and securing a spot in the Masters. But the grin would have been just as wide had he won a $2 Nassau.
Kuchar proved long ago it is not about the money, or the fame. He could have had both five years ago when he was the darling of the golf world, an amateur making a run at The Masters and U.S. Open with his dad as caddie.
Instead, he went back to Georgia Tech, even toyed with the idea of following in the footsteps of alum Bobby Jones and remaining an amateur. All the while, he heard the whispers from those who believed he should have cashed in while he could. But even without his victory a year ago, Kuchar said there would have been no regrets.
"The best time of my life,'' is how he describes his college days, even the ones that were filled with too few victories. The national championship he returned for didn't come. Neither did much else. Kuchar failed to repeat as an All-American in his senior season, failed to defend his U.S. Amateur title and had a rather lackluster year.
Then, all around him, he saw other young guns drive by in Brinks trucks. A then-17-year-old Ty Tryon even qualified for the PGA Tour, and here he is skipping classes this week to play alongside Kuchar.
"There is no right way to do this,'' Kuchar said. "I think each case is different. I'm happy for Ty. For me, it was a tough decision. I was very close to turning pro.''
Kuchar, 24, came out of nowhere to win the 1997 U.S. Amateur. That got him into The Masters, where he played the first round in 1998 with defending champion Tiger Woods, and led much of the day. A tie for 21st got him a return invitation. He played in the U.S. Open at the Olympic Club, and tied for 14th, the best finish by an amateur in some 30 years.
That was when agents started calling. All kinds of numbers were reported. Some estimates had Kuchar potentially earning about $2 million just to turn pro. It wasn't an easy decision.
Kuchar graduated in 2000, but still did not turn pro. He went to work for a money-management firm in South Florida and played golf with clients. The idea of remaining an amateur intrigued him. "What a great life that would be,'' he said. "I thought about winning a few big amateur tournaments, maybe playing in the majors. That's exactly what I was thinking when I took the job.''
But when Kuchar played a lot of golf, the competitive fire grabbed him. He accepted a sponsor's exemption into the 2000 Texas Open, and decided to turn pro a month later. Too late for qualifying school, he began 2001 with no status.
Restricted to seven sponsors exemptions, Kuchar had a second and a third and earned $572,669, securing his card for 2002. Then came the Honda, where he shot a final-round 66, one-putting the last eight greens for a back-nine 31 and a two-shot win over Joey Sindelar. He got a tour exemption through 2004.
Kuchar went on to win over $1 million last season, but after Honda he missed 11 cuts. This year, after tying for 25th at the season-opening Mercedes Championship, he has missed three cuts, taking the last month off.
It's not his style, but if Kuchar wants, he can nonetheless say, "I told you so."
"I never have felt you should make decisions based solely on money,'' he said. "Now maybe they will use me as an example in a positive way. Maybe some kid will decide that he wants to do it like I did it.''
The Big Question
Will LPGA Tour players be asked about anything else than Annika Sorenstam and playing on the PGA Tour?
It's the LPGA's first week, and Sorenstam isn't even playing in Tucson, but she figures to be the topic of discussion anyway.
Five Things to Watch
1. With a depleted field, this might be the week for a first-time winner to break through. So far this season, it's been nothing but veteran players winning. Davis Love III is the only top-10 player entered.
2. Since the Country Club at Mirasol is a new venue, and the Sunset course is a one-time home, nobody can claim an advantage. Or at least not much of one. Familiarity with Bermuda greens will help.
3. Ernie Els is off this week, but the European tour is staying in the Middle East for the Qatar Masters. European Ryder Cuppers Padraig Harrington, Paul McGinley and Phillip Price are among those entered.
4. Finally, the LPGA Tour begins its 2003 schedule -- with the PGA Tour already 10 weeks into its season. Mexico's Lorena Ochoa makes her rookie debut, while Annika Sorenstam rests another week.
5. The Champions Tour moves to California, where after five weeks, a true past "champion" has yet to win a tournament.

text: Hi. I've been trying to get a unlock code so I can use other than T-Mobile SIM in it. I have talked to T-Mobile, but they claim, that the can not find the code for my phone. I have also tried to buy a code online (unlock2go), and they were also not able to find a code for my IMEI number. Anyone know what could be the reason of this? Is there anything else I can try? I currently live outside of the US, so the phone is useless when I can only use it with T-Mobile. Best Regards, Ole

I would have never thought that I will write this story with me in the first person. I had read before several articles (well, mostly speed-reading, as in, jumping through it) and watched a few videos about narcissists before, but mainly because it was usually part of the "curriculum" surrounding HSP's and empaths.
I even started to wonder if that type of personality described in these places does actually exist. And I'm not talking about the person that comes off as ego maniac from the first glance, that type of "Wolf of Wall street" character. Sure, those seem pretty impossible to imagine running into one day as well.
But no, not that type. There is another type. And when I say "type", I mean more like an archetype, a general description of behaviours and patterns which is not a person, and you will never meet that archetype in real life. More like a taste of what it could be if you would experience it. Because without experiencing them, these theories are just plain nothing.
So rather, let's dwell into the story.

Camel Trophy 1998 - Tierra del Fuego Trailer (1998)
01 January 1998 Factual 59 mins
From the bustling metropolis of Santiago, capital of Chile, the forty competitors from twenty countries headed south on their three week South American adventure in what proved to be the most enjoyable and challenging Camel Trophy ever. In 1997 criss-crossing between Chile and Argentina through the Andean mountains, the spine of South America, teams had to contend with sub zero temperatures, deep snow and ice in their Land Rover Freelanders. Teams met for fun and relaxation at three points along the way where they climbed active volcano Villarica, rafted the whitewater on the world famous Rio Futaleufu and kayaked amongst turquoise icebergs at Torres del Paine. After three weeks the teams arrived in Ushuaia, southernmost city in the world, on the island of Tierra del Fuego

New York City, New York (PressExposure) February 05, 2012 -- He projected higher prices for basic commodities, saying government would not grant 0% VAT rating as before on goods such as sugar and milk.
Furthermore, no tax relief is expected and the average citizen would pay the same taxes or more.
He advised citizens to earn extra income to make up for the financial "mess" of 2011 and to recover from the Christmas holidays.
A vicious cycle of being in a financial rut is plaguing Namibians, and they normally start recovering from the holidays only by June or July, only to end up in the same position by the Christmas season again, according to Mwinga.
"Make sure not to take on new expenses this year," he said. He warned against going into contracts that give grace periods, allowing the first payment after three months, for example.
Mwinga added that about 95% of white Namibians budget for the Christmas holidays from as early as January, while the majority of black Namibians spend on impulse without budgeting.
"Your children's school fund should have been saved throughout the year for the following year as the January and February months are crippling on parents' wallets because of no proper planning," he explained.
Moreover, the majority of Namibians have an unhealthy relationship with money, a relationship Mwinga described as similar to that of the citizens of the United States of America, which ultimately led to the country's economic demise.
"It is easy for banks to offer loans because people take up to the 10th bond on their homes with the ever-increasing property values," he said. The economist urged Namibians not end the year in debt.
"We need to change our behaviour and borrow rather for productivity instead of merely for luxuries and consumption," said Mwinga, adding that people must establish a budget with our income and key expenditures as well as sticking to it.
In addition, micro-financing such as cash loans are easily accessible in Namibia and South Africa but rare in the other African countries.
Although it helps to get people out of poverty, it is misused, as it is not spent productively.
Mwinga further advised people to pay off deft with bonus surpluses and start 2012 on a good note.
He says a lack of information contributes to Namibians' financial dilemma. He, therefore, advised the need to become financially literate with the help of financial experts.
Financial expert, Afra Schimming-Chase of Chase & Associates, shared Mwinga's sentiments saying January should be treated the same as any other month by budgeting and not following the perception that it is a financially difficult month.
"We engage in instant gratification activities, get caught up in specials and end up buying things we do not need. Do not get into debt this time of the year," she cautioned.
Schimming-Chase advised to develop a cash diet, where things are paid in cash instead of credit cards where you don't actually see the money physically moving out of your wallet.
"Track your spending by writing down everything that you spend on, such as every ATM withdrawal, going out to dinner, etc.," she said, adding that the first principle of financial planning is to pay yourself first throughout the year.
She further advised people to reflect on their financial behaviour for the past year and to make positive changes for the New Year.
"Settle your debt by paying off debts with the highest interest rates and pay off debts with the smallest amounts," she explained.
She warned against withdrawing all one's earnings before debit orders go off, as those are commitments you made.
"A month of bliss can cost you if you don't pay your insurance premiums seeing that you may not be covered for non-payment," she warned.
Schimming-Chase urged Namibians to set goals for 2012 so as to not find themselves in the same situation again.
