What are the best activities in South Bend?
While Notre Dame is technically its own unincorporated community, largely composed of the university's campus as well as the adjacent Saint Mary's College and Holy Cross College campuses, in most visitors' minds the school and South Bend are one and the same. Taking the time to separate the two and explore both the university and the city offers an enriching experience.
Founded in 1842 by Father Edward Sorin, Notre Dame has long held a special place in the hearts and imaginations of many Americans. The campus, featuring some of the most well-known structures in the country, does not disappoint. During football weekends in the fall, Notre Dame's population swells and the area is alive with activity. It's an experience not to be missed.
Another one is at the Studebaker National Museum and Mansion. The defunct car company was once a leading producer of automobiles in the United States. Prior to that, it was the world's largest manufacturer of wagons. The museum pays tribute to both parts of the company's heritage and includes the last car to come off of the assembly line in South Bend. The mansion of the Studebaker family has been restored to its original opulence and sits in tribute to a bygone era.
Part of the local parks department, the East Race Waterway offers a short white-water rafting course using the St. Joseph River during the summer. Kayaks are also available for rent and walkways branch out along the river for a splendid stroll.
Built in 1921, the Morris Performing Arts Center once housed live vaudeville shows, as well as the world premiere of Knute Rockne: All-American, the classic Ronald Reagan film about the Notre Dame football legend. Listed on the National Register for Historic Places, the theatre is now home to the South Bend Symphony and hosts touring productions of Broadway shows, as well as live music and comedy acts.
Speaking of Knute, across the street from the campus he once roamed and tucked away from the road, St. Mary's College, an all-female institution, has its own beautiful, tree-lined property. At one time the sister school to Notre Dame before women were admitted, the campus is also home to the Sisters of the Holy Cross.

Facts & Arguments is a daily personal piece submitted by readers. Have a story to tell? See our guidelines at tgam.ca/essayguide.
All I am trying to do is say one simple thing in Spanish: "I almost died."
I've got the "almost" part, but the rest is complicated. The verb to die is both irregular and reflexive, so I have to think about how or whether the root changes in the past tense. I have to think about exactly how it was that I almost died (myself).
The schoolroom Spanish stored in my brain is not much help. In the chapter of the textbook that covers reflexive verbs, morir comes up right away. There is a dialogue between Rosa and Irving, in bed. She snuggles up to him and says: "I'm dying [myself] of cold." (Estoy muriéndome de frio.) Irving, the cad, replies: "Well, get up [yourself], woman, and shower [yourself] with hot water."
But that bedroom talk doesn't get me into the story I want to tell, so perhaps I will leap in another way. …
The day before I was scheduled to leave Mexico to return to the late spring of Ontario, I had a medical emergency. My doctor sent me to the hospital immediately, by cab. I was accompanied by a friend from Vancouver.
I am well into my 80s, and I know from previous experience the perils of the kind of open-belly surgery that might be necessary.
I began, then, to conjugate the verb to die – distractedly, fitfully, in Spanish. Perhaps it was a kind of meditation. I might die (myself). Future conditional? Subjunctive?
When the taxi pulled up at the hospital, I was tucked into a wheelchair and taken right away to a tiny X-ray room, where two big guys showed me where to stand, and how to spread my arms out. One of them demonstrated holding his breath.
Luckily, I was wearing only a Mexican cotton robe called a huipil, so I didn't need to waste time disrobing. The ride from X-ray to ultrasound was quick, but I began to sink into a kind of fog.
Someone put a hospital gown on me and handed my clothes to my friend.
The ultrasound doctor, looking beautiful and stylish in her silky blue suit and white medical coat, talked to me about what she was seeing. I understood almost none of it, as she rubbed the sensor over my abdomen. The equipment was all very modern, and when she had the image she wanted, she sent it directly to the surgeon by iPhone.
As I lay on the gurney being wheeled to surgery, I had a sort of "Hollywood moment." I watched myself stretch my hand out toward my friend as he stood there in the archway, backlit by the late-afternoon Mexican sunshine and looking quite glamorous with his eyepatch.
Gently, quietly, I heard myself say "Bye, honey," drifting, thinking: Laurie's last words? I was easy, ready to leave this life, if that was the way it would go.
The surgery, yes, I remember it now, a small room, not a lot of equipment in it, other than a big impressive control box, dark blue. Everyone was garbed up in surgical-blues, ready to start: surgeon, assistant, anesthesiologist, nurse. When I threw up one last time, all over everything, the doctors and the anesthesiologist leaped back, away from my contamination. The clean-up person took over briefly, and after that, they got me [own, and out, very quickly.
What can I say about that small hospital? Thanks to the wonders of Mexican architecture I could see the sky from my room – the building designed to let the heat out, the light in. My doctor was wonderful – confident and kindly. I was pleased and comforted by the cleanliness – the tile floors washed twice a day – the efficient nurses, friendly, trying out their English as I tried out my Spanish.
My stitched-up belly was bound firmly with a good Mexican swaddle-wrap, the kind they use for babies.
That was reassuring – at least I could be sure I wouldn't really burst open, even if that was how it felt. I was weak and frightened. The nurses encouraged me to get out of bed, to try to walk.
After several days, I was allowed to go home. Not home to Canada – I couldn't fly until the stitches were removed – but to my Mexican home, where my daughter had come down to take care of me until I could travel.
I lay in bed much of the first few days, then sat on the patio where there was more space, warm air and sunshine, and shade when I needed it.
My body began to heal. To encourage it, I did gentle tai chi exercises every morning, feeling as wobbly as a baby kitten.
Morir. Simple past, reflexive, negative: I did not die (myself). No me morí. Will that do?
I'm still trying to figure out in which form of the past I did not die. Was it a real, or hypothetical past?
But perhaps it is a verb I can decide to ignore, at least for the time being, while my wounded body recovers.
Laurie Lewis lives in Kingston.

UPDATE 7/27/2011 – The Beta 2 Cookbook is now out of date as we have released RTM. Please see Extending LightSwitch on the Developer Center for documentation and samples on using the LightSwitch Extensibility Toolkit.
One of the big features of LightSwitch is the ability for professional developers to write extensions to provide even more capabilities for the LightSwitch developer than what they get out of the box. A way to think of them is like add-ons. Extensions can be used to interact with the user directly, or to do some work behind the user interface such as data access. In LightSwitch there are 6 extension points: Controls, Screen Templates, Business Types, Themes, Shells and Custom Data Sources.
We'd like to release a draft of a document that is designed to educate you on what extensibility is available for the LightSwitch product, and to illustrate the various extensions types that can provide entry points into extending a LightSwitch application. The document also contains "recipes" for creating the various extension types so you can get started building extensions for the LightSwitch community.
To build LightSwitch Extensions you will need to have Visual Studio LightSwitch Beta 2, Visual Studio 2010 SP1 Professional or higher and the Visual Studio SDK. In addition to the cookbook we are also providing a blank extension solution to help you get started:
Download the LightSwitch Extensions Cookbook: .Word doc or PDF
Download the Blank Extension Solution: BlankExtension.zip
We want your feedback! Please add a comment below and let us know how we can improve the cookbook and the extensibility experience.

There are many chemical cleaners available for purchase that will do the job just fine. However, some people want more. They want household cleaners that can not only do the job, but can do it in a wholly natural way.
Here are a few simple household items that will help you get started:
Coffee Grounds
When you have caked on and baked on casserole dishes in the sink try using fresh coffee grounds to scrub the debris away. Their astringent nature will help tear away the baked on particles and break them free much easier than using a liquid dishwasher. And the fresh clean scent of coffee will be appealing to the senses as well.
They are also a fresh new idea that can aid in decreasing unwanted odors from gym bags when they are placed in a pair of panty hose and tied off at the end. They can be placed directly into the gym bag and taken with you on the go for everyday use.
Bread is good for many things, the first of which is to feed the belly. But there is another great thing that a crusty week old loaf of bread can be used for. Try breaking bread over a painting that has hung on the wall for a while. It will not only absorb and soak up any unwanted moisture but it will also gently clean the delicate surface with ease.
Nobody enjoys cleaning up after the person that used the microwave before them, but it is a necessary evil for most households. Instead of using harmful liquid chemicals, cut up some lemon slices and place them in a glass bowl filled with water. The fumes that are released will help to loosen the dirt and grime from the interior walls of the microwave, making it easier to clean away the mess. You can also use lemon to make a natural cleaning solution to place in your carpet cleaner.
The cutting board is something that is difficult to keep clean. But the same fresh lemons can be used to sanitize the nicks and scrapes that naturally occur during use. Cut the lemon in half and scrape it across the surface area to get the best use of it.
A garbage disposal is something that can become malodorous over time with all of the different foods that pass through it. But using fresh lemons through it can utilize the acid within them to break down the buildup and also make the odor disappear with very limited effort.
Dry Rice
Everyone seems to have clusters of random vases scattered throughout their home. Their size makes them difficult to clean and it can be a pain as well. Try using dry rice to clean them well. Place the dry rice inside and spin the base in small circles to clear away what builds up and they will sparkle again.
It makes good budget sense to look around the house for things that can be used for everyday cleaning. You just might find that you have everything that you need to get the job done right.

Montenegro votes for independence
Montenegro has narrowly voted for independence from its union with Serbia in a move that will erase the last vestige of former Yugoslavia.
The head of the country's electoral commission says 55.4 per cent of voters have voted to secede from Serbia, just above the 55 per cent target set by the European Union (EU).
Turnout was 86.3 per cent in the referendum over Montenegro's century-long union with Serbia.
The question of independence has deeply divided Montenegro, with its opponents arguing it will damage economic, family and political ties with Serbia.
Independence advocates say the 650,000 Montenegrins have a better chance of development and EU membership on their own than in a dysfunctional union with Serbia, which has a population of 7.5 million.
Analysts say the union could hardly be any looser - the two republics already have different laws and currencies and their joint parliament hardly ever meets.
Serb politicians, Orthodox church leaders and Montenegrins from the mountainous inland regions bordering Serbia have largely opposed secession.
EU foreign policy chief Javier Solania says the EU will respect the result.
Yugoslavia began to fall apart in the early 1990s. Slovenia, Croatia and Bosnia all had to fight to be free.
Montenegro last enjoyed independence in 1918.

Blackheads (open comedones) are small bumps that occur when the hair follicles get clogged with oil, dead skin cells and impurities, which accumulates in the opening of the skin pores. Here the skin over the bumps are exposed to air and gets oxidized to make them appear in black color.
It affects everyone at any age but the teenage and adolescent people are more prone to this problem due to their hormonal fluctuations and excessive usage of cosmetic products. It appears commonly on nose, chin, face, arms, neck, chest, shoulders and back of the body.
Usage of cosmetic products or squeezing them is not the best idea to eliminate it (as they lead to scars). All you need to do is to follow some simple natural home remedies for treating this acne form.
Home Remedies for Blackheads:
Here are the best ways to treat blackheads which not only cleanse the skin pores but also eliminate the harmful microbes and prevents forming spots.
Remedy – 1: (Baking Soda)
Baking soda exfoliates the skin to clear excess oil, dead cells and impurities to unclog the skin pores. It fights against the microbes causing blackheads and neutralizes the pH of your skin to produce less oil and thereby clear blackheads. Regular usage of baking soda will leave your skin soft, smooth and blackheads free.

Remedy – 2: (Lemon Juice)
Lemon juice has alpha hydroxy acids (AHA), a form of citric acid that removes dead skin cells and other impurities on the skin's surface. It has a natural astringent property that closes the open skin pores and prevents the formation of blackheads.
It is enriched with vitamin C and other essential nutrients along with antioxidant property that combats the action of free radicals and thereby stimulates the production of collagen to clear blackheads and scars.

Some Other Effective Remedies:
- Cinnamon has an antibacterial property that prevents germs causing blackheads. It also improves blood circulation and tightens the skin pores. Mix equal quantities of cinnamon powder and lemon juice (or honey) and apply it on the blackheads. Rinse off with water after 15 – 20 minutes. Repeat daily.
- Oatmeal works as a gentle natural cleanser and exfoliant that prevent blackheads. Mix 1 teaspoon of honey and juice of 4 tomatoes in oatmeal powder. Stir to make a paste and use it to scrub the skin. Rinse off after 10 minutes. (OR) apply a face mask by mixing 2 tablespoons of oatmeal, 3 tablespoons of plain yogurt and small amounts of olive oil and lemon juice.
- Turmeric offers antibacterial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that treat blackheads effectively. Mix 2 tablespoons of fresh mint juice in 1 tablespoon of turmeric powder. Apply this paste on the blackheads and rinse off with lukewarm water after 10 – 15 minutes. Do it once a week.
- Fenugreek has powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and emollient properties that clear blackheads effectively. Make a thick paste by crushing fenugreek leaves with some water. Apply it on the affected area and rinse off with lukewarm water after 10 – 15 minutes.
Tips and Precautions:
- Regular follow-up of the skin care regimen like cleansing, exfoliating, toning and moisturizing will help to keep the skin problem free.
- Always be sure to rinse the skin with warm water and then splash with cold water to close the pores.
- Rinse your face and neck thoroughly at night before going to sleep to remove makeup and thereby to prevent acne and its forms.
- Drink plenty of water, exercise regularly, consume a healthy diet and avoid the intake of oily, fatty or processed fast foods to get relief from the blackheads.
- Avoid picking or popping the blackheads with your fingers, as it worsens the problem by making the dirt or bacteria get into the skin pores.
- Consult your dermatologist if your symptoms persist, for proper diagnose and treatment to get relief from blackheads.

Studio: 20th Century Fox
Release Date: December 12, 2008
UK Release: December 12, 2008
The Day the Earth Stood Still originally appeared on the silver screen in 1951 and is considered a science fiction classic that gave birth to that all-important phrase, "Klaatu barada necktie." Err, neckturn. Nickel? Nikto… That's it!
Anyway, history doesn't repeat itself anywhere else more than Hollywood, so we're set to receive a remake this coming December. Sources paint the 2008 version as being fairly close to the 1951 version with tweaks that bring it even closer to the original source material, a short story by author Harry Bates. The plot revolves around an alien (played by Keanu Reeves this go around) landing on Earth with a cryptic message about cleaning up our collective acts or face destruction from the alien's indestructible pet robot. It's up to an ordinary mom (Jennifer Connelly) and son (Jaden Smith) team to show the alien there's hope for us yet.
Director Scott Derrickson is still a bit of an unknown as of yet. His last work, The Exorcism of Emily Rose was a moodily compelling film but also not destined to be a genre classic. Signs point to a good enough flick, but not something as classic as the original Earth.
Studio: Freestyle Releasing
Release Date: December 12, 2008
UK Release: TBD
Delgo might be the closest thing around to an open-source movie. It's been in production for nearly six years, and fans and curious bystanders have gotten an insider's view of the production via the film's website. In a completely unprecedented move, the actual dailies have been released online for anyone to see. It's a risky move, but one that seems to have paid off, at least in terms of getting the movie plenty of free early buzz.
Essentially, Delgo is an animated fantasy tale about a far off world with a strictly segregated society. Just as one might expect, evil is afoot and someone is plotting to set the two kingdoms against each other. Caught right in the middle is an adventurous teen named Delgo and, of course, it's up to him and his friends to prevent the war.
The other thing Delgo has going for it is a recognizable list of stars lending their voices. Freddie Prinze Jr. stars as Delgo, and joins a cast including Val Kilmer, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Chris Kattan, Anne Bancroft, Michael Clarke Duncan, Burt Reynolds, and Eric Idle.

Release Date: December 12, 2008 (Limited); December 19 (Expands)
UK Release: February 6, 2009
Acting heavyweights Meryl Streep (Mamma Mia!), Philip Seymour Hoffman (Charlie Wilson's War) and Amy Adams (Enchanted) star in this adaptation of the acclaimed play, adapted by original author John Patrick Shanley (Moonstruck).
The film chronicles an escalating conflict between a friendly priest (Hoffman) and an inscrutable nun (Streep) after the nun believes that he has abused a young student.
Shanley's original play won a Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 2005 and all of its stage stars were awarded Tony nominations for their performances - which is why it comes as no surprise that actors like Streep and Hoffman were attracted to the material. Set in 1964, the story explores the racial politics of the era and ultimately examines the nature of the truth – what we know, what we believe, and especially what we doubt.

Marry new technology to old-fashioned policing, and you've got something special.
The car is found just outside Picketsville, Virginia, a smoking ruin of twisted metal and shattered glass. It takes only a glance to confirm that this is Ike Schwartz's car. Ever since he left the CIA, the incorruptible Picketsville sheriff has made enemies at home and abroad. Now one has caught up with him, with a bomb powerful enough to turn quiet Main Street into a smoking crater. Is this a cop killing - or domestic terrorism?
The town plunges into mourning, and Ike's wife, Ruth, the president of the local college, puts on a brave face as the sheriff's department organizes a manhunt, the likes of which Picketsville has never seen. Back at the CIA, Ike's old colleague, Charlie Garland, joins the hunt, becoming fixated on a blurry videotape of the crime scene. Charlie's elastic job description includes monitoring Ike's life.
Investigations - led by more than one player - fan around and out of Picketsville as far as a small town in Idaho, where Martin Pangborn, head of the radical militia called the 51st Star, runs his organization. If some banks and businesses are too big to fail, are some people too deeply connected or too wealthy to bring to justice? Is Martin Pangborn such a person? The 51st Star's tentacles run long and deep. But the Vulture is something no one, not even Martin Pangborn, is prepared for.

text: Former UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton "Rampage" Jackson spoke publicly Thursday for the first time since his July 15 arrest in Costa Mesa, Calif. The highly popular mixed martial arts fighter was arrested by Costa Mesa police following a chase and booked into the Orange County jail on suspicion of felony evading, hit and run and reckless driving. One of the persons Jackson allegedly sideswiped on the 55 Freeway was 38-year-old Holli Griggs of Huntington Beach, Calif. On Aug. 1, her fiance, Bill Krebs, told the Newport Beach Daily Pilot that Griggs, who was 16 weeks pregnant with a boy, suffered a miscarriage. UFC president Dana White, who flew to Southern California to be with Jackson on July 15 after learning of the arrest from the Internet site TMZ.com, brought Jackson to the news conference Thursday to promote UFC 87 at the Mall of America.ADVERTISEMENT White introduced Jackson to a large crowd and said the fighter's problems were caused by failing to eat, drink and sleep and by consuming too many energy drinks. Jackson, normally a great public speaker, made brief remarks at the podium, then sat behind White at the news conference. Later, after signing autographs for fans, Jackson spoke briefly with Yahoo! Sports about his troubles. "I'm not allowed to say everything," Jackson said. "I was hurt by some personal problems I had. It caused me not to eat and not to sleep. Emotional, yeah." White said part of Jackson's problems was the result of a split with trainer Juanito Ibarra, with whom he was very close. White said the two split after Jackson's July 5 loss to Forrest Griffin in Las Vegas. He wouldn't disclose details other than to say the split had noting to do with fighting. "That was a big part of his problem, too," White said of the split with Ibarra. "I'm not going to comment on that. That's between them. But that's another big negative thing that's happened in his life that has messed him up too." Jackson declined to say much when quizzed about Ibarra. When it was noted that Ibarra seemed like a father figure, Jackson grimaced. "That's what hurts," Jackson said. "I can't say. You guys will find out soon enough." Prosecutors have yet to file charges against Jackson. White contended that Jackson simply knocked the mirror off Griggs' Cadillac Escalade and said he believes Jackson will face no legal issues over the loss of Griggs' unborn baby. Jackson would not address that issue, but White was more than willing to do so. "I don't think he does (have legal issues) any more," White said. "The reality is, once we got the diagnosis of what happened, they psychologically evaluated him for over 72 hours. The police were very involved in this whole thing. The place he went to, the police took him to. They diagnosed him and treated him and then he was fine. The reality is, had he been drunk or on drugs or just went out on a rage and terrorized like he did, I think it would have been bad. What he did was, he literally was sick and had delirium. "That car wreck? The reality is, he knocked her mirror off. The airbags didn't open. There was no trauma done to her. You know what I mean? That one is out there like, 'He hit her and she lost her baby.' It was a week later. He knocked her mirror off her car. Rampage said, and he'll tell you when you talk to him, 'I care about everybody. I care about all life. I would never hurt anybody.' "That's the way he is," White said. "Now he's in a situation where somebody's trying to civil sue him and make some money. Absolutely not. Absolutely not, this is not a criminal thing. No way. I'm not lawyer and I'm no judge (but) this stuff will be worked out in the court." Jackson said he already has begun training and is eager to fight again as soon as possible. He said he has been working with a boxing coach to improve his striking. He said he thought he deserved to get the decision against Griffin but said he did not go into a funk because of the loss. "It was a close fight, but I thought I won," Jackson said. "I thought I did enough to win. I felt like I won the first round. I feel like I won the third round, and I felt like I won the fourth round. I felt like he won the fifth round, second and fifth. That's how I feel, but I'm not a judge. "It is what it is. I don't care about fights, because I'm a fighter. That's not going to be the last fight I lose. Who cares about that? I don't care about winning the fight. Who cares? I'm going to come back, train hard and make more money." Jackson said he is looking forward to fighting again because it's how he supports his family. "That's something that people really don't know about me is that it's always a 50-50 chance you can go out there and lose a fight," Jackson said. "Who cares? It's a fight. It's not the end of the world." He said he was reluctant to speak because "I don't want to get into trouble with anybody." He thanked White and the UFC and said, "I love all these guys in the UFC. They've been great in supporting me. I'm happy to be out here and be a regular person again."

text: It's a great little time saving application. I?d suggest changing the name so it's easier to find and search for but otherwise a great job by the developers. I had it on my first Droid, got a new one then had a heck of a time remembering what this great app was called. Found it! And it works superbly. Saves misdialed calls and works a charm. At first it seems kind of annoying how it pops up for each call but then you realize without it your phone will have a mind of its own and random dial recent calls. Five stars. Bravo!

Warning as Exeter wakes up covered in thick fog
The Exeter-based Met Office has issued a Yellow weather warning for much of the region today, as thick fog reduces visibility to as low as 50m.
Those travelling this morning are advised to allow for extra journey time due to a large blanket of mist covering Exeter and parts of Devon.
Devon Traffic Alert sent the message that drivers should take their time after the fog appeared earlier this morning.
The Met Office is warning southern parts of England will be most affected and say even if the fog lifts, it is likely to return tonight.
Sunday morning in Devon banks of low cloud with mist and fog, some which will be dense. Allow extra journey time.
— Devon Alert (@DevonAlert) December 18, 2016
A spokesman said: "This evening will be largely dry with some clear spells, although patchy and locally dense fog returning across the south.
"There will be another murky start in the south with patchy fog clearing, but staying dull and damp with outbreaks of rain later."
The Met Office have warned that thick fog, that has blanketed the region overnight looks set to stay in place well into the afternoon.
The fog is likely to reduce visibility to between 100m and 50m, and the Met Office has warned that the low visibility could lead to driving difficulties for road users, including increased journey times today. The weather warning will stay in place until 1pm.
Temperatures are likely to feel cooler as well, with highs of 8C and and lows of 4C. Cloud will cover the region for much of the day today, however there will also be sunny spells, forecast between 10am and 2pm this afternoon.
In other parts of the UK the fog has been affecting travel plans with flights delayed and cancelled due to poor visibility.
London's Heathrow, London City and Gatwick were all affected after the south east became covered in a thick blanket of heavy fog.
Pilots were forced to land in shockingly poor conditions, with visibility in some areas down to just 100m.
Passengers found themselves stuck on runways or facing hours of delays at airports, as some inbound flights were diverted or cancelled.
London City, which has flights to Exeter Airport, diverted all inbound flights, while 50 flights at Heathrow were cancelled.

Those heading off for winter breaks were stuck in departure lounges, facing long waits while the foggy weather cleared.
Many reported being left totally in the dark about when the may be able to travel, with limited announcements or updates from airport staff.
One new mum was travelling with her three-month-old baby, and faced running out of baby food as she sat on the floor, stranded.
She said: "It's an absolute mess. There are people everywhere and with nowhere to sit.
"There's no information coming through to the passengers at all. Everyone is just watching the information boards until they change.
"I have a three-month old baby with me and because of the delays I'm running out of baby food for him.
"I got here at 11.30am for a 1.30pm flight but our flight is now due to leave at 4.30pm."
The new mum had been travelling with EasyJet, and explained how there was no plan to house the stranded passengers.
(Photo: Twitter)
She added: "They have no kind of lounge to house us in so I'm sat on the floor trying to keep the baby happy but I'm shattered and it's very hard.
"I've just received a text from EasyJet telling me my flight is cancelled but the departure boar still says there will be more information in an hour."
A spokesman for Heathrow Airport said: "There are currently delays to flights at Heathrow because fog across the south east and large parts of Europe.
"The fog and mist is slowly improving."
London City airport updated their followers on Twitter, writing: "Significant fog is continuing to cause flight delays and cancellations.
"Passengers affected are advised to speak to their airline."
The Met Office say travelling in fog can be extremely dangerous. Fog can drift rapidly and is often patchy. Warnings of dense fog are issued when visibility is expected to fall below 200 metres. Severe disruption to transport occurs when the visibility falls below 50 metres.
Make sure you know what to do
During fog
- Avoid travel if possible.
- Drive very slowly with dipped headlights, full-beam lights reflect off the fog causing a 'white wall' effect.
- Keep an eye on your speed, fog can give the illusion of moving in slow motion.
- Use fog lights, but remember to turn them off when the visibility improves.
- Don't hang on the tail lights of the car in front, rear lights can give a false sense of security.
- Watch out for freezing fog which is made of water droplets that freeze on contact with objects such as the pavement, road, car, etc. It can quickly form a layer of ice. Advice for when conditions are icy.

Tzipi Livni Says She Will Become Israel's Prime Minister/
Love | Peace Deborah Solomon decided to close out her NYT interview Israeli opposition leader Tzipi Livni with a question only insiders would understand: 'Are you Dying'? Livni answered 'It's not part of my plan for now.' Livni shares her views on the opposition Likud party, Hamas and a two-state solution in the region.
Livni, 51, says she will be prime minister of Israel. With regard to her own mother hearing her views:
She died two years ago. A few years ago, when I was interviewed on Israeli television, I said I support the idea of two nation-states. I was afraid that my mother was listening and hoped that she didn't open the TV when I was speaking. But then one day she called me and said: "Listen, Tzipi. I hear you. It gives me pain. But you need to make decisions about the future of Israel. We didn't establish this state for having just old people living here." via NYT
In today's Jerusalem Post, Tzipi Livni is quoted as saying Netanyahu and Barak are destroying the country and she has no intentions of joining their coalition government.

A/N: Thank you to everyone who has reviewed! Here's the epilogue!
Disclaimer: These characters are the creative property of LJ Smith and The CW. I am not profiting in any way from their use. The only thing I own is my plot.
Chapter Fifteen - EPILOGUE
. . . .
. . . .
"So, in my opinion, and you know my opinion's the only one that really matters, the best representation of vampires on tv was on Buffy, but at least the ones on True Blood are somewhat scary. And they don't sparkle."
That was the first thing Bonnie heard when awareness came upon her.
The voice continued on a critique of the various vampire shows and movies that had come out in the previous twenty years. As she listened to the speaker, she started towards wakefulness, and she recognized the voice.
"Spike was a total badass until -"
"You're awake?"
"I guess I am," she answered, opening her eyes. The light was too bright, and she snapped her eyes closed again, and then blinked them a few times to allow them to adjust to the brightness of the room. She wasn't in direct sunlight, but it was clearly day.
"Don't you ever do anything so monumentally stupid ever again," Damon told her, standing up and pacing around the room. "What the hell were you thinking? You know those daggers kill vampires who use them."
"I don't want to be a vampire," she whispered. Of course she had known; she'd planned to dagger Klaus as a human, but once she'd been turned, she'd found the idea of dying from daggering him to be ironically poetic. Even from across the room, Damon could hear the distress in her words. "How am I still alive?"
"Because of a little divine intervention," Damon answered, stalking back over to the bed and sitting back down in the chair next to it.
"What?" Bonnie asked. She attempted to sit up, and Damon reached over and helped her to lean forward while he readjusted her pillow for her. She snuggled back in, feeling slightly more comfortable, and she looked around. She was back in her bedroom at Klaus's house.
"When you collapsed," Damon answered, "I tried everything I could think of to bring you around. I gave you some of my blood. I tried giving you some of Klaus's. Nothing worked." He was quiet for a minute. "And then this woman appeared in one of the antique mirrors in the living room."
"A woman?" Bonnie asked. "Anna?" Anna had appeared to her through mirrors; it had been how she'd found the Eye of the Jackal and the spell to re-curse Klaus.
Damon shook his head. "Not Anna. Tall, with long blonde hair and a sad face."
Bonnie had a feeling she knew who the woman was.
"She spoke to me," Damon continued, "something about nature and restoring the balance, and then she said something in Latin. And I saw you stirring, so I picked you up and brought you up here. I looked for the woman again, but she was gone."
Bonnie didn't know what to make of her extended unlife. She hadn't planned to survive the daggering. She didn't want to be a vampire.
It was almost as if Damon could read her mind.
"Don't even think about doing anything stupid," he told her. "We're going back to Mystic Falls as soon as you're feeling better."
"No buts," Damon said, cutting her off. "It's been incredibly boring back there without you."
"Eternal unlife isn't really all that bad," Damon said, ignoring her. "Give me a chance to convince you of that."
"Why would I let you do that?" Bonnie asked. "Even more, why would you want to do that?"
"Because a hundred years from now," Damon answered, "I'll be stuck with just Stefan, Caroline, Katherine, and Tyler for company. I know you don't like me, but surely, you can't be that cruel."
Bonnie snorted. "So you want me alive for selfish reasons."
"Of course," he said. "Do you think I'm altruistic or something?" Bonnie snorted again. "Seriously, though, Bonnie, let me show that it's not as awful as you think it is, and if I fail, I'll let you walk yourself right out into the sunlight. Hell, I'll even give you a shove."
Bonnie fought to keep from grinning at Damon's sales pitch. She didn't want to be a vampire, but at the same time, she wasn't ready to say goodbye to everyone just yet.
"Besides, Elena would kill me if I came home without you again," he told her. "An undead you is a thousand times better than a dead-dead you."
Speaking of dead...
"Where's Klaus?" Bonnie asked, looking around the room. The only thing out of place was Damon. "Did he stay dead?"
"The dagger stayed in," Damon answered. "And he's down for the count. I arranged for him to be coffined and taken by ship. The crew was instructed to lose his coffin in the middle of the ocean."
Instead of feeling relief that she wouldn't have to worry about Klaus hunting her down for eternity, all Bonnie felt was sorrow.
. . . .
. . . .
The boat swayed steadily with the waves, and the tired crewman wandered down to the cargo hold. The ship was mostly empty, but there were a couple of things in the cargo hold, and he was tired, but not so tired that he was ready to go to sleep. He took a swig of whiskey from his flask and stumbled around the room as the boat shifted.
He bumped into something, and he turned to look at what it was. It was a coffin. Plain, simple, stained brown.
"Dead body?" he whispered, mostly to himself. He couldn't believe they'd be carrying a dead body, but one never knew these days. Curiosity got the better of him, and he slid the latch open and lifted the casket lid.
It was a dead guy. Fairly handsome, young-looking, with a strange silver dagger sticking out of his chest. His breath caught for a moment, and then he laughed at himself for being stupid. He started to close the lid, and then he thought again and propped it back open.
"You won't miss this," he said to the dead guy as he gripped the silver dagger. It took a bit of work to pull it free, but once he did, he stood and admired the weapon. It was a lovely blade, and it looked to be solid silver. It was sure to fetch a pretty penny with his contacts.
He started to close the lid on the casket, but before it was all the way down, something stopped it.
"Crap," he said, lifting the lid again in order to fix whatever the problem was so he could just close the coffin and leave.
The problem grabbed him as soon as the lid was up and sank its fangs into his throat.
A/N: It's kind of open-ended because I may write a sequel, but I have a lot of other fics in the pipeline so it will probably be a while before I get to it.

The Canadian Invasion and Other Trends in MLP M&A
We delve into some the recent trends in mergers and acquisitions involving master limited partnerships and other midstream operators.
International Intrigue
Our International Portfolio's conservative allocation weathered the selloff in energy-related equities with aplomb and has continued its strong performance in 2016. The handful of names in our aggressive sleeve have also rallied hard this year. We revisit out strategy for the back half of the year.
Canada's Comeback
Canadian energy stocks have rallied hard with oil and gas prices, but investors should remain cautious, stick with our strategy and focus on high-quality names.
Changes to the International Portfolio
We expect even the hardest-hit International Portfolio holdings to survive the current down-cycle. However, we have concerns about how long this recovery might take; in some instances, we're be better off taking a loss and re-allocating capital to stocks that stand a better chance of making money over the next few years.
Canada and Australia
Canadian and Australian energy stocks have suffered the double whammy of lower oil and gas prices and a sharp retrenchment in the value of their home currencies relative to the US dollar.
06/10/15: International Update
Our review of the latest developments in Canada's energy patch yields a new addition to our International Portfolio.
03/27/15: Northern Exposure
We survey our International Coverage Universe of 96 Australian and Canadian energy stocks and add two new names to our International Portfolio.
Fourth-Quarter Results from Canada's Energy Patch
Oil and gas producers worldwide have felt the sting from lower energy prices. Although much of the media attention has focused on the US companies spearheading the shale revolution, their counterparts north of the border arguably have taken a harder hit.
International Coverage Universe: Picks, Pans and Strategy for 2015
We do a deep-dive in our updated International Coverage Universe (42 Buys, 30 Holds and 25 Sells as of last week's update), highlighting our picks and pans and the key trends for income-seeking investors with exposure to Canada and Australia's energy complex.
Risk Assessment: Canadian Oil and Gas Producers
In recent years, Canadian producers have contended with lower oil prices far more frequently than their US counterparts; many of these names are battle-hardened. Here's our updated take on the upstream names in our International Portfolio.

- products banned in diabetes
- products authorized in diabetes
diabetes in the world today is one of the most common diseases of the endocrine system - when it occurs on a background of absolute (for Type 1)or relative (for type 2) insulin deficiency there are complex disorders not only of carbohydrate, but also other kinds of exchange.The result of the devastating effects on the body becomes steadily progressive loss of internal organs, leading to functional impairment of body systems.That is why it is so important the timely detection of disorders of carbohydrate metabolism, and appropriate treatment was one of the main components of which at any variant of diabetes becomes a health food.
Diet for diabetes - an important treatment of the disease element
diet in diabetes has a beneficial effect not only on the processes of carbohydrate metabolism, but also on the whole metabolism of the body - its observance helps to control blood glucose levels (serum glucose concentration) and i
Preparation diet for a patient suffering from diabetes, is based on the fact that the products having the same caloric content, contain different amounts of simple carbohydrates and fats - products that primarily cause the development of undesirable changes in internal organs.It is for the content of these compounds is all food for patients with diabetes, divided into permitted and forbidden.By the advice of a doctor who recommends the use of a diet for diabetes and restricting certain kinds of food, worth considering - the composition of the diet and diet selected insulin dose and mode of administration with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, as well as the dose of oral hypoglycemic drugs used to treat non-insulin variant of the disease.
products banned in diabetes
In identifying impaired glucose tolerance, especially - when it detects diabetes regardless of its type, it is recommended:
1. Restricting carbohydrate
course, in identifyingnot only diabetes but also functional disorders of glucose uptake (changes in the body's glucose tolerance) must be severely restricting intake of carbohydrate.These substances are quickly absorbed in the small intestine and cause a sharp discontinuous rise in the level of glucose in the body, which in low doses of drugs prescribed to correct the disease, may trigger the development of hyperglycemic coma patient.Strict limitation:
- sugar and foods with a lot of its content - the jam, jam, candy, honey;
- baking and sweet pastries - cakes, chocolate, ice cream;
- sweet berries and fruits - grapes, raisins, bananas, dates.
In severe disease restrictions should be as stringent with mild to moderate diabetic allowed the use of these products in small quantities under compulsory glycemic control.
2. Limit fat
Upon detection of diabetes is desirable to reduce the number of fat in the diet - with all kinds of food and taking into account the method of its preparation of the content should be limited to 40 grams per day.In this case, be aware that the vegetable fats in the diet should prevail diabetic patient - this helps prevent insufficient intake of fat-soluble vitamins.
undesirable in the diet of the patient's food, which is composed of a large number of all lipids - all sausages, frankfurters and sausages, fatty meats, milk and dairy products are high in fat.
3. Restriction of spices and seasonings
Restriction of spices and seasonings in the diet of diabetic patient is required not so much because the substances contained in them may increase serum glucose levels, but because of the general stimulation of appetitein humans.The patient loses control of hunger and satiety and can eat larger amounts of food than planned, and that leads to hyperglycemia.
4. Limit alcoholic beverages
Patients suffering from diabetes mellitus of any kind, it must be remembered that any drinks, which include alcohol, enough calories and can directly affect the serum glucose level.Moreover, for their assimilation in the body requires an additional amount of insulin and tissue enzymes viscera.we must not forget that alcohol has a direct damaging effect on the cells of the pancreas and may provoke another aggravation of pancreatitis, inevitably culminating in a decrease in the number of cells capable of producing insulin.
5. Stopping smoking
necessity of quitting smoking due to the fact that the penetration of nicotine and other substances contained in tobacco smoke, has a damaging effect on pancreatic tissue and internal organs due to a sharp circulatory disorders.In this case, the reduced production of endogenous insulin in type 1 diabetes and changes cell metabolism in type 2 diabetes (glucose can not get into the inside of a cell and turn it into glycogen, due to which there are severe violations of all types of exchange).You can not try to jam as cigarettes and cigarette hunger, which often occurs in patients with poorly compensated diabetes, or non-compliance with the recommendations on drawing up the diet.to the content ↑
products authorized in diabetes
The remaining products more loyal relationships - the patient should receive the necessary amount of nutritious food, but simple carbohydrates should be replaced by sophisticated and fats in the diet should be primarily plant origin.In the absence of signs of kidney damage in diabetes there is no need to limit the amount of protein in the diet products regardless of their origin.
1. Permitted carbohydrates
to provide food energy value of the diet must be present complex carbohydrates - brown bread, a side dish of pasta or cereals.It is important to remember that the use of a side dish, you can compensate for failure of bakery products.It is recommended to use the power of patients with buckwheat or oats (they are rich in vitamins) are allowed in a limited number of barley, wheat and rice, is highly undesirable daily semolina.
From vegetables in the diet of the patient in unlimited quantities may be present cucumbers, zucchini, tomatoes, cabbage, lettuce, radishes and greens (except Spice), is limited to the use of potatoes, beets and carrots (not more than 200 grams of each root).Based on grains and vegetables can be prepared in a variety of soups, main dishes (side dishes and casseroles).
Fruits desirable to use a limited number - are allowed no more than 200 grams of fruit per day each: sour apples, citrus fruits, cranberries, currants and gooseberries.
2. Approved fats
Eating this food group is recommended to cut and give preference to vegetable fats.
3. Permitted proteins
protein products in the patient's diet may be submitted lean meats (poultry) and fish, which must be baked, steamed or boiled.Permission is granted to use the eggs - as a separate dish, and as part of other products.
Milk and milk products with a small percentage of fat razrascheny unlimited quantities and in any form, especially recommended low-fat cottage cheese (the food product contains a large number of methionine required for liver cells)
Adhering to the diet recommended by your doctor, you can achieve a significant reduction in demandthe body's insulin or hypoglycemic drugs to improve the patient's overall health and performance.Nevertheless, we must not forget that the diet - it is only one component of complex therapy of diabetes and it is not always can replace drugs.

Social Question
What martial art could I start to learn?
Asked by thebluewaffle (1002) January 1st, 2013
I'm a 24 year old lad with no martial arts experience. With a few bouts of 'milling' in the forces as my only experience.
I'm very keen in learning a martial art and am swaying more towards jui-jitsu. Anyone with any experience can give me a bit of insight to what each 'style' offers.
I'm a fairly robust when it comes to fitness, so that shouldn't be an issue.

The usefulness of a Happy Income Index
In this paper, Happy Income is introduced as an indicator of physical and socio-psychic wellbeing. It is constructed on the assumption that socio-economic well-being is based on objective circumstances, such as personal income as well as on a subjective evaluation of life. In combining these factors, Happy Income is a cardinal measure of overall well-being in a given country. Therefore, Happy Income is not subject to the limitations of purely ordinally scaled indicators, i.e. it is not restricted by an upper bound, which may be one explanation of the Easterlin paradox. The Happy Income concept is employed to measure social well-being in various different European countries. The results are compared to these countries' score on Ruut Veenhoven's Happy Life Years. It is argued that Happy Income is a valuable complement to other indicators of well-being at an aggregated level.

Picture: Naomi Campbell 'Poiret: King of Fashion' Costume Institute Gala held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art - Arrivals New York City, USA - 07.05.07
Volatile supermodel Naomi Campbell reportedly terrified a fashion assistant last week (begs20OCT03) by hurling a pair of hair tongs at the innocent aide.
Naomi was in Istanbul posing for SUNSET MAYO's swimwear catalogue, but felt the entire shoot had been a disaster and finally lost her temper when a mink belt went missing.
A source explains, "She was in a bad mood from the minute she landed in Turkey. She felt like she'd been set up and it all came to a head on Wednesday when she slung the tongs after a misunderstanding over her belt."
Sunset Mayo boss KENAN GUERES is infuriated with the temperamental model, who he feels has not fulfilled her $64,000 (GBP40,000) contract - and is now demanding $200,000 (GBP125,000) compensation.
Gueres fumes, "We thought she was a professional but we seem to have made a mistake."
Naomi apparently refused to get off her plane for four hours after it landed in Istanbul on Tuesday (21OCT03) - and threatened to fly straight back to Britain claiming her passport was missing.
However, a pal of the model says, "She did a shoot earlier in the year and loves Istanbul. But this time she was completely persecuted. She went to do a job but when she tried to get off her jet, she was mobbed by about 70 people, she couldn't even get out.
"After four hours the pilot managed to help her off but it was just as bad - it's not like HEATHROW where you can't get on the runway without proper clearance."
Things did not improve once shooting began, and the troubled star stormed off the set after posing fir just two pictures.
Her friend adds, "Basically, she fled the shoot because she was unhappy with their conduct. And she was literally fearing for her life. She was being followed everywhere by photographers who were bashing into her car. It was just like a Princess Di car chase.
"In the rush to escape on the plane she misplaced her belt. That's when things finally came to a head and later there was an incident involving a belt and some tongs."26/10/2003 11:04
