Sleep for 7 or 8 hours every night...and still feel tired?
This new harmonic development will reduce the amount of sleep you need.
What could you achieve with an extra day per week?
How Does it Work?
Accurately calibrated sine wave frequency generators were used to generate different frequencies in each ear.
Experimenting through the whole range of theta waves (from 5 - 8 Hz) it was found that a combination of frequencies consistently created a borderline sleep state. It was found that this state replaced normal sleep and reduced standard requirements.
Listening to the frequencies over a period of time helps to deepen your sleep cycles. This leads to an improved quality of sleep and less waking through the night.
You can easily reduce your sleep requirements to 6 hours per day or less.
The developer of this program sleeps for 4-5 hours each night with a half hour power nap at lunch time.

If you're an owner of one of the flash Zune models, then this may interest you. Incipio, maker of many cases and other accessories, is selling a large number of cases for the flash Zune at half price! If you need a case then now might be a good time to head over and see what they have since there is also no shipping in the United States. And I would imagine that covers about 90% of their potential customers. (Sorry Jason!)
If you don't have a flash Zune there are a few accessories that are more universal such as screen wipes and a variety of chargers. Nothing amazing really but if you need a charger then you could pick one up here.

TRENTON - New Jersey's three candidates for governor hammered familiar themes but largely avoided taking swipes at each other in separate televised interviews tonight.
Gov. Jon Corzine discussed expanding health care coverage, Republican challenger Chris Christie pledged to cut government spending, and independent candidate Chris Daggett reiterated his plan to slash property taxes.
Television host Steve Adubato Jr. interviewed the three candidates on his show "On the Line: Decision 2009," which was simulcast on Channel 13, NJN Public Television and WBGO 88.3 FM, and webcast on NJ.com.
Voters were invited to submit questions for the candidates at NJ.com. Viewers also called in questions during the forum, which was sponsored by The Star-Ledger.
Christie pledged to push municipalities to share services in order to lower costs and property taxes. Facing criticism that his proposals are too vague, he insisted he's been specific on his budget proposals, and said his track record as former U.S. attorney shows he can make changes in Trenton.
"When I say I'm going to cut spending and cut income taxes over the next four years, you can look at my record and you'll know I'm going to get it done," he said. "I've given lots of specifics, and I'll continue to give them."
Christie said he would use the governor's line-item veto to withhold funding for the Council on Affordable Housing if he wasn't able to reach an agreement on changing the state's policies.
"It's been the worst idea Trenton has had in a long time, which is saying something," he said.
Christie and Corzine also answered questions on health care, specifically mammograms. Christie wants to lower health care costs by allowing insurance companies to offer mandate-free policies to uninsured individuals. Corzine said that would let insurers skirt requirements to provide mammograms.
"When you say mandate-free, that means there are no requirements," he said.
Christie, whose late mother had a life-saving mammogram, has slapped back at Corzine, calling the governor "deceitful" for saying he would deny women mammograms.
Christie has touted his corruption-busting record as former U.S. attorney in New Jersey, but Corzine said tonight his administration has also cracked down on malfeasance, citing several indictments of Democratic lawmakers filed by the attorney general.
"We have been absolutely true to enforcing the law," he said.
Corzine said the tighter budget has limited state aid to municipalities, but cited ways government can stimulate the economy. He said the state is building schools, jump-starting public works projects and creating incentives for small businesses.
Daggett, a former state and federal environmental official, emphasized his plan to cut property taxes by 25 percent for homeowners while expanding the sales tax to cover household and professional services.
"I'm getting rid of the property tax rebates and replacing it with a property tax cut," he said.
Daggett said he would push for concessions from public employee unions.
"We're going to have to engage unions from the beginning," he said. "When they're faced with the facts, I think they'll do the right thing."
Corzine has been steadily gaining in the polls. A Fairleigh Dickinson University poll released earlier today had the governor leading Christie 44 to 43 percent. The governor was trailing by five points as recently as last month.
The most recent polls released by Quinnipiac and Monmouth universities had Corzine down three and four points.
The candidates squared off for the first time on Thursday in a broadcast live on NJN. The second state-sanctioned debate will be held Oct. 16 and broadcast two days later, and the candidates will face each other again in a radio debate on Oct. 22.
Staff Writer Claire Heninger contributed to this report.

Autumn crocus is already in bloom in the woods... sweet little flowers shyly thriving in sunny spots among high trees, and reminding that Autumn is not far away.
Colchicum autumnale, commonly known as autumn crocus, meadow saffron or naked lady, is a flower which resembles the true crocuses, but flowering in late summer and autumn. The name "naked lady" comes from the fact that the flowers emerge from the ground long after the leaves have died back.

Superintendent of Public Instruction, 1902-1919. Educator and agriculturist. Home is 3 blks. N.W.
During the late nineteenth century North Carolina's educational system had problems dealing with rural populations, transportation, funding, and teacher recruitment. Through the efforts of a group of leaders including
Charles B. Aycock
Edwin A. Alderman
Charles D. McIver
, and James Y. Joyner, the problems were addressed. Joyner was vitally important to the change of attitude and improved North Carolina's schools systems first as an instructor and later as an administrator.
James Yadkin Joyner was born during the Civil War and was orphaned at the age of two. He grew up in Lenoir County under the watchful eye of his grandfather, a prominent planter and influential Democrat. Joyner attended a local academy and later the
University of North Carolina
where he grew close to several up and coming North Carolina political leaders including future governor Aycock. After graduation in 1881, Joyner taught at schools across the state and, by 1889, he had joined Alderman and McIver in providing a traveling educational program for the state's teachers. Over the next decade Joyner served a series of school systems and colleges as an educator and administrator, including serving as dean for the State Normal and Industrial College in Greensboro, the present
University of North Carolina at Greensboro
Governor Charles B. Aycock in 1902 appointed Joyner to the position of State Superintendent of Public Instruction, a position that Joyner would hold for the next seventeen years. As superintendent, Joyner sought to bolster teacher training by encouraging the development of normal schools, improving the curriculum of rural schools by adding specialized classes to improve agriculture and homemaking skills, and increasing the length of the school year from four to six months. Through his work, Joyner raised the profile of the superintendent's job and increased awareness of the state's educational needs. Joyner retired from educational pursuits in 1918 and became involved in private business, serving as president of the North Carolina Tobacco Growers Association. He died at the age of ninety-one and was buried beside his wife in Raleigh's

Have you ever heard your toilet making strange sounds and look in to see bubbles coming up through your toilet? This is usually a sign that your pipes are not draining properly and a backup in your septic system may occur soon. There are a few things you can check by yourself before calling a plumber.
First, Check the air vent on top of your roof. If a bird has built a nest or something is covering the hole it will not allow the sewer gases to vent properly and will cause them to find other options of escape.
Second, There may be a clog in your plumbing system. Try to run water down various drains and flush the toilets to see if there is one drain that is draining slower than the others. Also, watch to see if the toilet bubbles when a specific part of the system is used. For example, when the washing machine is used does it cause the toilet to bubble.
Third, Buildup in the plumbing pipes, such as from soap scum, could also restrict free flow and cause the toilet to bubble. Bubbling can also be caused by a pipe that is too small, has a leak, or is not angled correctly.
After checking all possible problems, if you are unable to fix it yourself there are additional solutions.
Calling a plumber. A professional plumber will be able to snake out your plumbing lines and hopefully clear out any clogs.
Call a sewer professional to pump out your tank. If it has been about 5 years since you moved into this house or someone else has pumped the system, there is a strong possibility that your septic tank is full and will need to be pumped out.
Call a septic system contractor. If there are not clogs, the septic drain fields may be old and no longer functioning correctly. If this is the case you will also have other signs of system failure, like a smelly liquid seeping onto the ground. In this case replacing the entire field line area is the only solution you will have.
We are experts at replacing drain field lines and are willing to come look at your problems to see if they well need to be replaced. Call us today for your free estimate.

"The boys and girls with guitars will finally get to turn the world on its axis," Sir Bob Geldof recently proclaimed. And if the newly drafted world-turners didn't seem particularly well qualified for the job, that was precisely the point: professional performers were becoming amateur agitators, all for a good cause. Sir Bob was announcing the lineup for Live 8, a sequel to his 1985 Live Aid concert, a fund-raiser so successful that it earned him an honorific not usually granted to former members of bands with names like the Boomtown Rats.
There are to be six Live 8 concerts: five in five cities (London, Berlin, Paris, Rome and Philadelphia) on July 2, and a sixth in Edinburgh on July 6, all set to coincide with this year's G-8 summit meeting. Whereas the 1985 concert was meant to raise money, this one is meant to raise consciousness: the confluence of fans and stars is supposed to put pressure on world leaders to agree to a plan of debt cancellation, revised trade regulations and increased aid to the poorest countries.
The full lineup is posted at live8live.com, and the British concert is full of the usual suspects: Sir Elton John, Sir Paul McCartney, Sir Bob himself. There are some commoners on the bill, too, including Madonna, REM and, inevitably, U2, which has established itself as the biggest and best-intentioned band of its generation.
All of which leads, quite logically, to the question that has been preoccupying some British newspapers for the past week or so: What about the Spice Girls?
There were early reports that the defunct quintet might re-form for the event, followed by the possibly spurious but nonetheless entertaining news that the Girls had been dropped from the concert ("axed," according to one gleeful article after another), either because they didn't have enough fans or because they didn't have enough gravitas: they just didn't fit. Then Sir Bob confirmed that the group was still invited to perform; a concert spokeswoman says the only question is whether the members can make time to rehearse their old hits.Continue reading the main story
Like many noble-minded music events, Live 8 represents a two-way exchange of prestige: the concert and cause gain stature from the pop stars who sign on, and the pop stars gain stature (and if they really work hard, a knighthood) from the concert and cause they support. That's why organizers tend to favor blue-chip acts like U2 -- a serious band for a serious occasion. And for a group like Coldplay, which is not-so-secretly campaigning to succeed (that is, replace) U2 as the world's leading purveyor of stadium-friendly earnestness, a slot on the London stage can help advance two causes at once.
While the Spice Girls were criticized for not being earnest old rockers, some others were criticizing the concert's organizers for leaning too heavily on earnest old rockers. When the lineup was first announced, the Senegalese star Youssou N'Dour was the only African performer on the bill, and there were complaints that the music didn't match the message. Andy Kershaw, a television announcer for the original Live Aid, called the omission "a disgrace." He wondered how concert organizers could ask the world not to neglect Africa while doing exactly that.
All this fuss might seem strange to American listeners, but in Britain, good-cause music has a long tradition; it's often high-minded in its conception and low-brow in its execution. This past winter, dozens of pop stars (under the direction, once again, of Sir Bob) came together to rerecord the awful charity-rock chestnut "Do They Know It's Christmas?" to aid refugees in Darfur. Performers as varied as the piano-rock balladeers Keane and the nimble-tongued grime star Dizzee Rascal helped deliver the lyrics.
Everyone involved described the project as simply a noble cause, but for British listeners, part of the appeal was watching stars moonlight as public servants, watching big names step out of character to do a good deed. Projects like these help convince listeners and performers alike that deep down, pop stars are normal, friendly people, all part of the same benevolent musical community.
America has produced plenty of well-intentioned musical projects of its own, but in the United States, pop stars are less likely to pretend that they're all the same, or to acknowledge that an exaggerated, mediagenic persona might coexist with a decent, concerned citizen. You wouldn't expect to hear, say, 50 Cent step out of character to record a silly Christmas song, no matter how good the cause.
As it happens, 50 Cent is one of the performers scheduled to play the Philadelphia concert, alongside Jay-Z, Stevie Wonder, P. Diddy, the Dave Matthews Band and others. This lineup may yet earn Sir Bob more free publicity; surely it's only a matter of time before some earnest but sensitive soul protests the presence of 50 Cent, whose rhymes aren't overburdened with good intentions.
But 50 Cent has at least one advantage over most of the other Live 8 performers: he still makes great records, full of big hits. And at consciousness-raising concerts like this one, where the performer is merely the medium through which organizers deliver a message, 50 Cent's presence is a welcome reminder that musicians can support causes without embodying them. If there's something disconcerting about hearing him raise awareness about AIDS in Africa while sneering, "Outside the Benz on dubs/ I'm in the club wit the snub," then just remind yourself that it could be worse -- he could be asking whether they know it's Christmastime in Africa.Continue reading the main story

Corrosion inhibitors, lubricants, adhesives, and cleaners
The technology necessary to produce aircraft chemical products-lubricants,
CICs, cleaners, sealants, solvents and adhesives-requires special expertise in
formulating and delivering product. Zip-Chem possesses that expertise.
We understand that chemical products for aircraft production and maintenance
must perform under very demanding conditions-including radical pressure changes,
extended exposure to harsh environments and a wide range of temperatures. We
also know that added weight is an important concern in all aircraft
applications. Chemical products must perform with thin coatings or the least
build-up possible.
In addition, aviation maintenance must be sensitive to modern environmental
concerns. Zip-Chem products meet tightening requirements to reduce VOCs,
eliminate ozone depletion and maintain air quality standards. The complex nature
of what aircraft chemicals must accomplish can also make many of them quite
expensive. But Zip-Chem works to minimize costs through innovations that reduce
product waste.
In the near future, we will post detailed descriptions of how Zip-Chem's
expertise has been of benefit to our customers. Please feel free to return to
this page later, or send us an email if you have a specific question.

FRANKFURT (Reuters) - German defense group Rheinmetall (RHMG.DE) and French peer Thales (TCFP.PA) are among several groups interested in a defense electronics business that plane maker Airbus (AIR.PA) is selling in an effort to streamline its operations, sources familiar with the transaction said.
The two companies as well as U.S.-based Raytheon (RTN.N) and a number of private equity groups including Carlyle (CG.O), Bridgepoint, CVC, KKR (KKR.N), KPS and Triton are expected to hand in tentative offers for the Airbus business by a Friday deadline, they said.
The price tag on the sale, dubbed "Orlando", which is led by investment bank Evercore (EVR.N), may reach up to 1 billion euros ($1.1 billion), the people said.
Airbus, Europe's largest aerospace group, is currently selling several businesses to focus its defense division on warplanes, missiles, launchers and satellites.
Thales Chief Executive Patrice Caine declined to comment on any specific talks, but told analysts that such opportunities were difficult to predict.
"Defense deals can only be opportunistic; it is too complex to make firm bets on a defense deal," he said in a conference call when asked about the company's criteria for expansion.
A Rheinmetall spokesman said the company was following the divestment activities of Airbus, declining to comment further.
The other companies and private equity investors all declined to comment.
Europe's defense industry is struggling as most governments are keeping a lid on military spending and the asset sales are part of efforts announced by Airbus last year to sell half a dozen businesses with combined annual revenues of around 2 billion euros.
The move breaks with the company's previous efforts to diversify into security activities and halts investment in defense electronics, in which it lacks the scale of rivals.
The business up for sale under the "Orlando" deal makes components for radars, optronics, electronic warfare and border control applications and has about 100 million euros in annual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization on 1 billion euros in sales.
The products are used, for example, in surveillance or for equipment that helps pilots to fly in fog or at night.
Acquiring the business would allow Airbus's European defense peers to boost activities in an important area.
But after looking at the initial information packages on the deal, some potential buyers said they doubted the business's financial prospects and did not expect it to sell at a high valuation.
Although widely seen as a less likely outcome, defense sources said selling the sensors business to a non-European buyer would deal a further blow to the controversial Euro Hawk reconnaissance drone, which has been in limbo since Germany canceled it in 2013 over high costs.
There have been reports that Berlin might revive the drone, developed by U.S. contractor Northrop Grumman (NOC.N). But giving up manufacturing control of the drone's sensors could erode its European content and make other alternatives more attractive.
The will to keep technology and jobs within certain regions, may hand German bidders good chances, as the business is significantly Germany-based, one of the sources said.
But a third person said that any buyer would be sensitive to these matters and the nationality of the bidders did not really say much about qualities as a long-term owner.
In a separate deal, led by Lazard (LAZ.N), Airbus is selling part of its satellite communications arm Vizada and has attracted interest from groups including Thales and Alcatel ALUA.PA in a potential 700-800 million euro deal, people familiar with that transaction said.
Disposals of other smaller businesses are also gaining pace. Airbus is in talks with a German investor over the sale of its ESG Elektroniksystem und Logistik business, which has about 250 million euros in sales, a person familiar with the matter said.
Atlas Elektronik, a joint venture with ThyssenKrupp (TKAG.DE), also remains on the list of possible disposals.
The German steelmaker is ready to buy the remaining stake in the supplier of sonar systems for maritime security it does not already own, but only at a price it deems reasonable, a person familiar with that process said.
Last month, Airbus also sold a further stake in Elbe Flugzeugwerke to Singapore-based ST Aerospace, which now controls 55 percent of the maker of freight aeroplane components.

Welcome to another art-less update! Yes, that's a pun and no, it's not funny. It's art-less.
So it's December 31st and there hasn't been much for us to show here and I figured now is as good a time as any to look ahead. Of course, like any good attempt at looking ahead, I'm going to look back first.
For us, 2011 has been a hell of a year. We're finally off of our asses and trying to get out there and get noticed. This site was the first real push. Of Stars and Swords also launched back in October, and while the pages are old for us, they're new for everyone else! This past year has basically been the two of us finally sticking our necks out and having a look around.
2012 is, hopefully, the year we really make things happen. So here's a look at some things to expect in the coming year.
Of Stars and Swords will continue to update weekly, of course. We're just over halfway through the Issue 0 story, and things will really kick off come the start of Issue 1. Tweaks to that website will keep happening as we figure out ways to make things flow better, and the weekly blog posts that fill out world details and other bits of prose will keep hitting with each new page.
We've got a second webcomic that should get started this year. This one's been in the works for quite a few years with an old friend of mine, and we're working on promo art right now to put together for a Kickstarter. If all goes well, you'll get to see something closer to traditional superhero work from us soon!
Sort of Secret Project #1. It's possible that Caroline and I are looking at a way to release that first comic we made together, The End, in a format with other, newer works of similar content and length. Possibly. Maybe. If you haven't read The End, you can right here: http://seriousturtlestudio.blogspot.com/2011/10/sts-18-end-complete.html
Sort of Secret Project #2. I'll admit to having a creative 'problem'. I write too much at times. Ideas come, I flesh them out until I find something that can be done with it or shelve it for later. That means, at any one time, while Caroline is focused on one or two things we're working on, my headspace is in about ten. Because of this, Caroline has encouraged me to tackle something almost entirely on my own. She wants to ink it and color it (if it needs color), but not pull the weight of penciling as she's already shouldering enough of that. So right now, I've taken one of those fleshed out ideas and am trying to get my own penciling up to a good quality that she can ink. If all goes well, my favorite phrase these days, you'll see the results of this before the year's out!
Sort of Secret Project #3. For two years now, Caroline and I have been bouncing a story around between us. It's taken a lot of fighting it, but I'm fairly sure we've found the best way to handle this project. This one is iffy for release at all this year, but it's likely to be worked on. How do I know that? Well, the full plot outline is just about done. My goal, once that is done, is to have the script's first draft done in the coming months and edit it as necessary until it's in a state we're both happy with. After that...well, things will get interesting.
And then who knows what else! Hopefully this blog will get more regular updates in terms of art and sketches and in-progress work! Maybe something crazy will happen and push other things to the wayside! That's the fun of a whole new year, especially when we're crazy enough to work on so much at once!
I do want to thank everyone that has followed us this past year, too! Getting started is rough, and we need all the support we can get, no matter how small it is. All I can ask is to keep with us, don't be afraid to tell us what you think, and definitely don't be afraid to tell your friends!
So there it is, a text-filled preview of things to come! Hope everyone has a safe and fun New Years Eve and that the world doesn't suddenly end at midnight in your specific time zone!

The article contained incorrect information about Ichiro Ozawa, a key figure in the Democratic Party of Japan. The article reported that Michael Green, senior director for Asia at the National Security Council during the Bush administration, said that Ozawa had yet to meet the U.S. ambassador to Japan, John Roos. Green actually said that he believed that the two had not met, but asked the reporter to confirm it, which was not done before publication. Ozawa had in fact received a courtesy call from Roos at party headquarters on Oct. 21.
U.S. concerned about new Japanese premier Hatoyama
Tuesday, December 29, 2009
While most of the federal government was shut down by a snowstorm last week, there was one person in particular whom Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton called in through the cold: Japanese Ambassador Ichiro Fujisaki.
Once he arrived, Clinton told him in blunt, if diplomatic, terms that the United States remains adamant about moving a Marine base from one part of Okinawa to another. That she felt compelled to call the unusual meeting highlights what some U.S. and Asian officials say is an alarming turn in relations with Japan since Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama led an opposition party to victory in August elections, ending an almost uninterrupted five decades of rule by the Liberal Democratic Party.
Since the election, a series of canceled dinners, diplomatic demarches, and publicly and privately broken promises from the new government has vexed senior White House officials, causing new concern about the U.S. friendship with its closest Asian ally. The worry extends beyond U.S. officials to other leaders in Southeast Asia, who are nervous about anything that lessens the U.S. security role in the region.
A pledge of assertiveness
At the center of concern are Hatoyama and his Democratic Party of Japan. Hatoyama had campaigned on promises he would be more assertive than previous Japanese leaders in dealings with the United States. He and his coalition partners opposed parts of a $26 billion agreement between the two nations to move the Marine base to a less-populated part of Okinawa and to transfer 8,000 Marines from Okinawa to Guam.
The United States has seen the moves as central to a new Asian security policy to assure Japan's defense and to counter the rise of China. But Hatoyama and his allies saw the agreement as the United States dictating terms, and wanted the base removed.
Increasingly, U.S. officials view Hatoyama as a mercurial leader. In interviews, the officials said he has twice urged President Obama to trust him on the base issue and promised to resolve it before year's end -- once during a meeting between the two in Tokyo last month and another in a letter he wrote Obama after the White House had privately expressed concerns about the Japanese leader's intentions.
On Dec. 17, Hatoyama officially informed the Obama administration that he would not make a decision about the air base by the end of the year. He told Clinton the news in conversation at a dinner in Copenhagen at the conclusion of the United Nations climate-change summit.
After the dinner, Hatoyama told Japanese reporters that he had obtained Clinton's "full understanding" about Tokyo's need to delay. But that apparently was not the case. To make sure Japan understood that the U.S. position has not changed, Clinton called in the Japanese ambassador during last week's storm, apparently having some impact.
"This is a thing that rarely occurs, and I think we should take this [Clinton's action] into account," the ambassador told reporters as he left the State Department.
Hatoyama's moves have befuddled analysts in Washington. So far, most still think he and his party remain committed to the security relationship with the United States.
They explain his behavior as that of a politician who is not accustomed to power, who needs to pay attention to his coalition partners -- one of which, the Social Democratic Party of Japan, is against any U.S. military presence in the country. They note that Hatoyama has put money aside for the base-relocation plan in Japan's budget and that other senior members of his party have told their U.S. counterparts they will honor the deal.
Shifting policy?
But some U.S. and Asian officials increasingly worry that Hatoyama and others in his party may be considering a significant policy shift -- away from the United States and toward a more independent foreign policy.

Entrepreneurs who are most driven by their passions for transforming societies with innovative ideas, have been the engine for creating new jobs, generating revenue and advancing innovation. Certainly, entrepreneurship is the future.
One of Africa's most illustrious entrepreneurship networks, Africa's Young Entrepreneurs (A.Y.E) has taken a giant leap in global rankings of entrepreneurship networks to become Africa's first-ever largest entrepreneurship network in the world.
According to Global Entrepreneurship Institute (GEI), an American-based and globally trusted source for supporting 500.000 entrepreneurs across 195 countries, the Nigerian entrepreneurship network, A.Y.E is now the world's largest network of entrepreneurs.
This announcement was made in a statement signed by a GEI Director, Jamie Olson: "Further to your database verification and empowerment programs submitted, please be informed of our recent listing of your organisation under the 'sevens entrepreneurship organisation with global impact' as the largest entrepreneurship network in the world."
Africa's Young Entrepreneurs is a South African-based entrepreneurship network organization founded by Nigerian entrepreneur, Summy Smart Francis. The organization facilitates intra-trade among African entrepreneurs in some 19 countries across the continent. It is also Africa's largest economic group having more than 12 million Pan-African entrepreneurs.
Since its launching in 2010, Africa's Young Entrepreneurs has invented world-wide entrepreneurship programs including Harvest Africa (A program that showcases investment opportunities in Africa), AYEEP (Africa's Young Entrepreneurs Empowerment Program), AYESA (Africa's Young Entrepreneurs Student Association), MY MENTOR & ME (an online mentorship platform) as well as a newly launched entrepreneurship reality television show.
This network of African entrepreneurs have also initiated a philanthropic venture called 'Empower Borno' – a partnership with the Borno state government of Nigeria, set up for the empowerment and redevelopment of the internally displaced victims of the Boko Haram insurgency.
With over 500 million people engaged in some form of entrepreneurial activity each year, and having the largest network of entrepreneurs in the world, Africa is on its way of becoming the new home for startups.EN FR

Black Joe Lewis and The Honey Bears At The Filling Station In Bozeman [PHOTOS]
This last Sunday night, the 20th of November, I headed out to The Filling Station on North Rouse to attend the latest and greatest show put on by Compound Productions. Walked in around 9:15 to the Dikes of Holland finishing up their set, and saddled up to the bar for a beer while The Sheep Dogs queued up for some Canadian style classic rock and roll. Hailing from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, The Sheep Dogs, consisting of Ewan Currie on vocals and guitar, Leot Hanson on guitar, Ryan Gullen on bass and Sam Corbett on drums came on in full glory with tight pants, flannel and enough facial hair to make "The Dude" look clean cut. With a very eclectic feel to their rock-n-riffs the Sheep Dogs brought the warm feel of The Who or The Rolling Stones together with a unique folk twist to fill the small room with sound waves.
Black Joe Lewis and the Honey Bears rolled on stage around 11 with his full entourage of brass and strings to a packed house. With seven band members on stage the little filling station venue was packed to capacity. Starting up strong with a blast of soulful funk rock, the crowd was immediately dipping and jiving to the zany soul funk. With a vibe that gave you the feeling of being in a 50's dance hall, Black Joe belted out somewhat indistinguishable but energy filled lines of lyric.
Another great night at the filler; next time you had all better be there!


text: hye, i came up with this idea for people who cant afford to change strings a lot. what abut having a spare set of new strings for gigging? so you prtactise woith the old strings and every time you gig (in case is not every day) you put the new strings, so live you have that exelent bright sound. and maybe afetr the 50th gig you can buy another set.... i comented it to a friend and he told me he heard somewhere that this may make the strings die, can i do it?

Virgin Mobile will offer two iPhones, a 16 GB iPhone 4S model and an 8 GB iPhone 4 model, beginning on June 29. Coupled with these phones are three talk, text and data plans ranging from $30 a month for 300 minutes + 2.5 GB of data, $40 a month for 400 minutes + 2.5 GB of data or $50 a month for unlimited talk and text + 2.5 GB of data.
The good news? There is no contract required and if you already own an iPhone, your monthly rate could drop significantly. Existing users can opt (pay) out of their current contracts and bring their rates down this way.
The bad news? The buy in. New buyers will pay $549 for an 8 GB iPhone 4 or $649 for a 16 GB iPhone 4S and data speeds will be slowed after reaching 2.5 GB. There is also no mention of tethering, which is a feature that allows the iPhone's internet connection to be shared with other devices, being included in their plans.
These plans come late in the iPhone 4 and 4S life cycle but they are still less costly options for using an iPhone. The iPhone 5 is expected to be announced by October.

text: Hello, I'm having trouble running two linux-ha heartbeat nodes and have them talk to each other (or actually one of the nodes just doesn't work even for local basic admin stuff, including a simple "service heartbeat stop") and apparently it all boils down to the following Bug in Linux-HA: http://developerbugs.linux-foundation.org//show_bug.cgi?id=1678 I'm persuing this with the linux-ha users mailing list but the bug doesn't seem to get much attention from the linux-ha developers and I was wondering whether anyone here has stumbled on it and have a work around. The strange thing is that the two noes are identical - both are CentOS 5 PV Xen guests on the same CentOS 5 Dom0 host and exactly the same packages and config files - but one of them seems to work perfectly while the other doesn't. Anyone? Thanks, --Amos

Large pores on the skin are caused by different factors such as age, over exposure to sunlight and genetic factors. Availability of pores on your skin is really a good thing, especially if most of them are open. The main disadvantage may be if this pores are visible, this may be embarrassing and also dangerous to your health.
There are various methods that you can employ in order to reduce the size of your pores. These methods include:
Clay masks
Clay is very beneficial to your skin. It is known to help in skin detoxification. It works by sucking out water and fats found beneath the pores, thus helping the pores relax.
You should apply a clay mask gently on your face, avoiding the eyes. For it to work better, it should be left for a considerable time before removing it.
Egg white.
Egg white is known for its ability to shrink pores and tighten skin. Before application, it should be mixed with a small amount of lemon juice. This mixture should be applied on skin that has been rinsed with warm water, and then left for about 15-20 minutes before washing your face again.
Lemon juice.
Lemon juice is good for your skin as it helps shrink the pores. Apply the juice on your skin using a cotton pad and leave for around 5 minutes before rinsing it off. Rose water should be added to the lemon juice before application if you have dry skin issues.
Lactic acid found in yoghurt is useful in shrinking skin pores. It should be applied and left for about 10 minutes before rinsing it off.

I love records, collecting obscure and bizarre music of all genres is a huge passion of mine. Growing up listening to and playing punk and hardcore, my desire to discover new and interesting bands from all over the world has always been insatiable.
One of my favorite discoveries in my musical life so far has been the Japanese punk scene in the mid to late 80's so I decided to focus my zine on the topic. I did the writing in the zine, it's all based off of stories, urban legends, and liner notes that I've mentally accumulated over the years on the topic of Japanese punk.
The typeface I used is Akzidenz Grotesk, I really like contrasting clean and legible layouts with chaotic punk imagery. The center photo is of the band Confuse, and I feel like it illustrates the over the top aesthetic that punks in Japan had in the 80's, and continue to have to this day.
The folded out center spread of my zine is a 2 color collage I made with images and iconography from various Japanese punk bands; "All Things Change Into The Fashion" is a title of a song by Confuse, the center image is an image of Sakevi from seminal hardcore group G.I.S.M., and I used the Kuro logo up in the top right hand corner.
I chose to Risograph print my zine because I enjoy both the outcome of printing on a Risograph as well as working within the restrictions that Risograph printing has.

Why is it that when a really, really good teen show comes along, the network goes ahead and cancels it!!!!! It happened with My So-Called Life in the '90's and it happened with Freaks and Geeks in the Noughties. I say the noughties because the show never actually aired here till 2001. Watching Freaks and Geeks again for the first time since when it originally aired in the UK, and totally have that 16 year old I want to be back at school feeling all over again.
The show is filled with wonderful characters that you generally care about. Like Jared Leto's Jordan Catalano before him, James Franco plays Daniel Desario, once again the flawed guy, the stoner who has flunked back a year or two. He's not brain smart, but he's not stupid either and there is something ridiculously attractive about that. Then you have the Brian Krakow and Nick Andopolis characters. The boy who is completely besotted with our heroine. Unlike Brian though, Nick is also a total stoner and not a brainiac. In the lead is Linda Cardellini as the smart, newly turned grunger Lindsay Weir, who indeed does share a lot of Angela Chase's characteristics and she is a wee bit awesome.
Freaks and Geeks was one episode shy of My So-Called Life's 19 episodes and when you think of all the bland and plastic shows that get picked up for a new season year after year, you find yourself thinking, 'why the hell did this get cancelled!!!!!???!' These are characters you care about; you want to know what happens to them, a hell of a lot more than 95% of the crap that our channels are polluted with. And when you look at the sheer talent that has come from both of these shows, it's phenomenal. Freaks and Geeks is like a who's who of the funny crowd in movies today. I mean it's a Judd Apatow show with Seth Rogen, Jason Segel, Martin Starr and others for Christ's sake!!!
And James Franco is in my humble opinion, one of the best all round actors out there today. He is stupidly talented and moves from one role to another with super ease, he's a natural and I love him for it!!!!
Favourite moment is probably Daniel playing Dungeons and Dragons with the geeks, super hot!!!! I think that's my Jordan Catalano boiler room episode squeeeage all over again, haha. <3

In a word…No. But let me expand.
Despite comments from Bundesbank President Jens Weidmann and others over the past few days I don't buy into the view that the German or ECB position has changed substantially from the one I laid out on Forbes here (i.e. that there are numerous political, economic and legal reasons why the ECB is hesitant over taking significant further action).
While Weidmann's comments were maybe less hawkish than usual, they were still heavily caveated, he said:
"This does not mean that a QE programme is generally out of the question. But we have to ensure that the prohibition of monetary financing is respected…It should be clear that my personal assessment will be a strict one. Buying not just peripheral bonds but German and French ones as well does not automatically solve the problem of monetary financing."
Erkki Liikanen, Governor of the Bank of Finland, went a bit further saying:
"We have not exhausted our manoeuvring room. It's not huge, but it's not exhausted. The question of negative deposit rates, in my mind, isn't any longer a controversial issue."
It's true that on balance the past few days have seen an unusually large number of dovish comments relating to QE and further action but I think this can be put down to a couple of simple reasons.
The first is the overreaction to the lack of action at last month's meeting. Reading the responses after the meeting, most analysts and forecasters seemed to suggest that this closed the door to any further action of any kind this year. Just as the expectations before the meeting of some huge intervention were overblown so were such reports of the death of ECB activity.
Second, and linked to the above, was the market reaction, particularly in terms of strengthening the euro significantly. The EUR/USD pushed up towards $1.40 and remains near the top end of its range over the past year. ECB President Mario Draghi has shown increasing concern about a stronger exchange rate and the spate of comments is likely linked to a broader programme to 'talk down the euro'.
The real issue from a German perspective is not necessarily that the door was ever firmly closed (or open) but that we remain someway from the QE door and to get there would require carefully negotiating some politically and legally explosive obstacles.
With this in mind, what can we expect from the ECB at next week's meeting? My feeling is that there is unlikely to be a big change. The ECB will continue this approach of strongly pushing its easing bias and trying to talk down the euro. We could also see the end to the sterilisation of previous bond purchases under the Securities Markets Programme (SMP) and/or hints to further action to boost lending to the real economy.
Ultimately, as I've said before, it comes down to the flow of data. The flow over the past month has actually been fairly positive. PMIs came in quite strong – in particular France posted its best performance for a couple of years – and economic and consumer confidence came in in-line with or above expectations. While inflation remains subdued, the final figures for February showed the annual rate of core inflation ticked upwards to 1% from 0.8%. That said, data out today showed Spain has dropped into deflation this month, while inflation in Germany is estimate to be running at only 1%. Another potential area of real concern for the ECB will be the pick-up in repayments of the long term loans (LTRO) over the past month which has reached a whopping €42bn.
In the end, I think we find ourselves in a fairly similar position to last month (albeit having gone through a cycle of over scepticism and now over optimism) – further action remains possible but not yet highly likely.

Here are some pictures of the emus..
I got to feed the little chicks their morning tea..
They are already over a foot tall and only a few weeks old.
These ones are the teenagers
Very curious little fellows.
Last years babies but basicly 5 foot tall roughly.. they make a funny 'boonk boonk' noise.
They are pretty friendly. I thought they would just run off but they actually came a bit too close
Emus have quite unusual feathers i learnt..
Two feathers are joined at the tip part that goes into the bird... only bird like it?? maybe the ostrich is the same. not sure. thought the feathers were great though.
Hope you are having a happy day

The gamma catenin/CBP complex maintains survivin transcription in beta-catenin deficient/depleted cancer cells.
Curr Cancer Drug Targets
Publication Year:

Public Summary:
The identification of novel therapeutic regimens for Imatinib resistant CML is a critical issue. This work demonstrates that the ability of the small molecule ICG-001 to block the CBP/-catenin interaction in addition to the CBP/β-catenin interaction may be clinically significant in the treatment of cancers, including CML, in which -catenin substitutes for reduced nuclear β-catenin, either due to genetic deletion or pharmacologic reduction of nuclear β-catenin.
Scientific Abstract:
Previously, we demonstrated that survivin expression is CBP/beta-catenin/TCF-dependent. Now, using NCI-H28 cells, which harbor a homozygous deletion of beta-catenin, we demonstrate that survivin transcription can similarly be mediated by nuclear gamma-catenin. ICG-001, a specific inhibitor of binding to the N-terminus of CBP, effectively attenuates survivin expression. We demonstrate that gamma-catenin by binding to TCF family members and specifically recruiting the coactivator CBP drives survivin transcription particularly in beta-catenin-deficient cells. We also examined the relative expression of gamma-catenin and beta-catenin in 90 cases of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in a published gene expression microarray data base. A statistically significant negative correlation between gamma-catenin and beta-catenin was found in AP/BC cases (-0.389, P = 0.006). Furthermore, in subsequent independent validation studies by qPCR in 28 CP and BC patients increased gamma-catenin expression predominated in BC cases and was associated with concomitantly increased survivin expression. Gene expression was 3- and 6-fold greater in BC patients as compared to CP patients, for gamma-catenin and survivin, respectively. Consistent with this observation, nuclear gamma-catenin accumulation was evident in this population consistent with a potential transcriptional role. Combined treatment with imatinib mesylate (IM) and ICG-001 significantly inhibited colony formation in sorted CD34(+) CML progenitors (survivin(+)/gamma-catenin(high)/beta-catenin(low)) isolated from one BC and one AP patient resistant to IM. Therefore, we believe that the ability of ICG-001 to block both the CBP/gamma-catenin interaction and the CBP/beta-catenin interaction may have clinical significance in cancers in which gamma-catenin plays a significant transcriptional role.

Normally, I can't wait for summer to arrive. Long days, warm nights, family vacations, summer movies and escapist / beach literature, etc. This year, however, I admit to feeling a little anxiety about the months ahead, as I suspect many other investors are.
Consider the following:
Given all of the above, the financial markets could well spend much of the summer "climbing the wall of worry, struggling to move higher against a backdrop of concern and disappointing news. It wouldn't be the first time. Financial markets in general, and equity markets in particular, often become overextended at turning points in the cycle – that's part of what makes them cycles – so why should this time be any different? Our concern is with how to manage through this period.
The following two articles provide a brief glimpse into our current thinking along these lines. In the first article, Jim Mahoney discusses opportunities outside of the mainstream asset classes, where there may be more opportunity for return and a greater margin of safety. In the second article, Brendan O'Sullivan-Hale discusses risk-taking in the bond market, both for taxable and tax-exempt investors.
Get a couple of good books and scan the movie listings each week. It could be a long, hot summer.Print

1 of 1 people found the following review helpfulFebruary 11, 2011Reviewer: Antonis in Greece* The best preworkout supplement on the market, period. I`ve tried over 20 preworkout supps, but this is just on the high-end. Energy and focus for the entire workout. You can start over again once you`ve finished your workout. Max torque. Smooth power for every rep, every set, every exercise. SAN nutrition is just in the top5 currently. P.S. One of the reasons I bought LAUNCH4350 is the previous review, thnx.

Recently some of our developers (including me) have been very busy with school. Now that my tests are over, I will start working on FG again. Today I put some finishing touches on the (minimal) server side ground combat, so it should be ready for testing. To test it, the client app will need to try to add a colony to a planet. This includes selecting a planet. Rather than just test with a predetermined planet, I decided to polish up the 3D galaxy and get zooming to view planets working, which I did, and while I was working on it, I added some colors to the stars to add interest. There are some issues with the deep zooming, and I think I found a way to solve them and make in solar system ships and such easier in the future. I haven't implemented my solution, and the details are not very interesting, and somewhat involved so I wont bother with a description here. Anyway, with the zooming working, I just need to detect planet clicks (should be really easy) and then pop up a ground combat window for the clicked planet. Then, I will have to develop the window to allow adding and viewing colonies. After that, we will need to be able to generate a list of planets of interest (where you have colonies) and allow players to navigate to them (select planet for smooth quick flight through the galaxy) on the client. Then, we will add control of some parameters of the colonies to the players, and implement some real combat. At that point, we will release the game. To avoid having everything really spread out, we will likely reduce the number of planets and stars greatly so testing areas will be more populated.
As far as a release estimate, I can not provide a time as I don't know how much work it will be, or how much time I will have for FG. I can say that it wont be this weekend, and it will probably happen before fall. Other than that, I would predict a minimal build with a ground combat interface will be up for the public in late May, and a somewhat fun release possibly in June (I get out of school in mid June).
When looking more long term, I would expect a lot of progress this summer as the pieces that we already have being to fall together. Expect to see the music in game along with the ground combat, 3D galaxy, and maybe even an economy. We might even get some nice looking planets, and the basic ship design tools done by the end of the summer. After the progress we will make over summer, we will likely be ready to start building content such as models of ships and weapons, other graphics, technologies, stats etc. All that stuff is a long way out, but the path to it is clear, and we are heading the right way at an accelerating pace.
It's fun to see, that galaxy, but to play, will make my day.

- Adolf Hitler 20 April 1889 – 30 April 1945) was a German politician who was the leader of the Nazi Party (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei; NSDAP), Chancellor of Germany from 1933 to 1945, and Führer ("Leader") of Nazi Germany from 1934 to 1945. As dictator of the German Reich, he initiated World War II in Europe with the invasion of Poland in September 1939, and was central to the Holocaust.
- Hitler was born in Austria, then part of Austria-Hungary, and raised near Linz. He moved to Germany in 1913 and was decorated during his service in the German Army in World War I. He joined the German Workers' Party (DAP), the precursor of the NSDAP, in 1919 and became leader of the NSDAP in 1921. In 1923 he attempted a coup in Munich to seize power. The failed coup resulted in Hitler's imprisonment, during which he dictated the first volume of his autobiography and political manifesto Mein Kampf ("My Struggle"). After his release in 1924, Hitler gained popular support by attacking the Treaty of Versailles and promoting Pan-Germanism, anti-semitism, and anti-communism with charismatic oratory and Nazi propaganda. Hitler frequently denounced international capitalism and communism as being part of a Jewish conspiracy.
- By 1933, the Nazi Party was the largest elected party in the German Reichstag, which led to Hitler's appointment as Chancellor on 30 January 1933. Following fresh elections won by his coalition, the Reichstag passed the Enabling Act, which began the process of transforming the Weimar Republic into Nazi Germany, a one-party dictatorship based on the totalitarian and autocratic ideology of National Socialism. Hitler aimed to eliminate Jews from Germany and establish a New Order to counter what he saw as the injustice of the post-World War I international order dominated by Britain and France. His first six years in power resulted in rapid economic recovery from the Great Depression, the effective abandonment of restrictions imposed on Germany after World War I, and the annexation of territories that were home to millions of ethnic Germans—actions which gave him significant popular support.
- Hitler sought Lebensraum ("living space") for the German people in Eastern Europe. His aggressive foreign policy is considered to be the primary cause of the outbreak of World War II in Europe. He directed large-scale rearmament and on 1 September 1939 invaded Poland, resulting in British and French declarations of war on Germany. In June 1941, Hitler ordered an invasion of the Soviet Union. By the end of 1941 German forces and the European Axis powers occupied most of Europe and North Africa. Failure to defeat the Soviets and the entry of the United States into the war forced Germany onto the defensive and it suffered a series of escalating defeats. In the final days of the war, during the Battle of Berlin in 1945, Hitler married his long-time lover, Eva Braun. On 30 April 1945, less than two days later, the two killed themselves to avoid capture by the Red Army, and their corpses were burned.
- Under Hitler's leadership and racially motivated ideology, the Nazi regime was responsible for the genocide of at least 5.5 million Jews and millions of other victims whom he and his followers deemed Untermenschen ("sub-humans") and socially undesirable. Hitler and the Nazi regime were also responsible for the killing of an estimated 19.3 million civilians and prisoners of war. In addition, 29 million soldiers and civilians died as a result of military action in the European Theatre of World War II. The number of civilians killed during the Second World War was unprecedented in warfare, and constitutes the deadliest conflict in human history.
Adolf Hitler/Quotes
Those who want to live, let them fight, and those who do not want to fight in this world of eternal struggle do not deserve to live.
If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.
He alone, who owns the youth, gains the future.
Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it.
The victor will never be asked if he told the truth.
Words build bridges into unexplored regions.
Demoralize the enemy from within by surprise, terror, sabotage, assassination. This is the war of the future.
I use emotion for the many and reserve reason for the few.
All propaganda has to be popular and has to accommodate itself to the comprehension of the least intelligent of those whom it seeks to reach.
It is not truth that matters, but victory.
