By Tom Belger, Lovemoney
Many popular global landmarks were seen as absolute disasters when they were first built. Plenty of now-iconic sites once faced widespread opposition, major construction problems or struggled to make any money.
Eiffel Tower, Paris, France
The Eiffel Tower's design sparked uproar among many in French high society before it had even been finished in 1889. The writer Guy de Maupassant called it a "giant ungainly skeleton". He and other literary giants fumed in a letter of protest that its shadow would loom "like an inkstain" over Paris for decades to come.
Eiffel Tower, Paris, France
These well-heeled critics' views turned out to be miles away from public opinion on Gustave Eiffel's 300m-high structure. Two million people came to marvel at the tower when Paris hosted the World's Fair soon after its completion, and it has been a hugely popular French landmark ever since.
Sydney Opera House, Australia
The Sydney Opera House once looked set to go down in history as one of Australia's biggest architectural failures. Its Danish architect Jørn Utzon resigned after heavy government criticism in 1966, and his name was not mentioned at its launch. The project was supposed to cost around AUS$7 million and be finished in 1963, but was only completed a decade later at a cost of AUS$102 million.
Sydney Opera House, Australia
But the Opera House gradually became an iconic global venue. It has hosted Pope John Paul II, Nelson Mandela, thousands of artists and the launch of the 2000 Olympic Games. Utzon was invited back to lead a renovation project in 2000, and it was crowned a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2007.
The Shard, London
Boris Johnson called The Shard "a most amazing place" when he officially opened the tallest building in western Europe in 2013. But a year later it was being dubbed "the tallest white elephant in the world" by the Daily Mail newspaper. Not a single office was reported to have been let, with the London Bridge tower mostly empty.
The Shard, London
The 1,016-foot tower was written off by many, with critics saying its location south of the River Thames and unusually-shaped offices condemned it to failure. Now its owners, including Qatar's government, may have the last laugh, after announcing it was "virtually full" last year. Occupiers include TV station Al Jazeera, jeweler Tiffany and food retailer Kraft Heinz.
Washington Monument
This monument to George Washington, in the US city that took his name, stood half-finished for more than two decades. Writer Mark Twain said it looked like a "factory chimney with the top broken off", and it was not exactly a fitting tribute to one of America's founding fathers.
Washington Monument
Proposals for a monument were drafted as early as the 1780s, but it was only finished a whole century later. Political rows, a lack of funds, the death of an architect and the Civil War all slowed its progress. But it was the tallest building in the world on completion, and swiftly began attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors every year.
Guggenheim Museum, New York
Frank Lloyd Wright's quirky design for the Guggenheim Museum was so controversial that even avant-garde artists lined up to oppose it.The initial proposals also reportedly breached no fewer than 32 building regulations. A whole 16 years passed between Wright beginning work and the museum's launch in 1959.
Guggenheim Museum, New York
Yet the world quickly fell in love with a building that author Norman Mailer had said would "shatter the mood of the neighborhood". It became one of New York's most-visited museums, with many people flocking to see the unique architecture as much as the art inside.
Centre Pompidou, Paris, France
Sniffy critics called the Pompidou Centre an "oil refinery", and it was built in the face of significant opposition from locals in the 1970s.Its inside-out design was like nothing Paris and perhaps the world had ever seen before, with its escalators, electricity cables and structural support all exposed.
Centre Pompidou, Paris, France
It was a wonder the center was built at all, with conservative French president Georges Pompidou himself bravely signing off the controversial design by foreign, left-wing architects. However the French public and tourists alike embraced the cultural center, with six million people visiting in the first year alone in 1977.
Millennium Dome, London, UK
Even a few weeks after its launch at the start of the year 2000, the $1.1 billion (£789 million) London landmark looked doomed to become Britain's ultimate white elephant. The operators were already struggling to pay their bills, according to The Independent. Construction costs had spiraled over budget, and its millennium-themed exhibitions failed to attract enough visitors.
Millennium Dome, London, UK
There was huge uncertainty over the dome's purpose and future until new owners AEG transformed it into an entertainment venue in the early 2000s. Renamed The O2, after a multi-million sponsorship deal was signed with the UK phone company, it became the world's most popular entertainment venue in 2008, and has hosted major events from concerts by big names including the Rolling Stones and Britney Spears to the 2012 Olympic Games basketball final.
Empire State Building, New York
This iconic landmark was the world's tallest building when it opened in 1931. But the feat was not enough to attract tenants in the middle of the Great Depression, with the tower mostly empty in 1933. The so-called "Empty State Building" failed to turn a profit until 1950, according to the New York Times.
Empire State Building, New York
Even in the early 2000s it "could not compete with the sleek new towers" in attracting New York firms, the Wall Street Journal reports. What has saved the building is its incredibly-profitable observation decks, with stunning views attracting millions every year. A renovation in 2007 also helped persuade top companies to move in.
China Central Television HQ, Beijing, China
The new Chinese Central Television HQ has had a troubled history. When it was first announced in 2002, many believed it was too ambitious to be built. Western media accused Dutch architect Rem Koolhas of enabling state propaganda; Chinese media accused him of basing his design on a naked woman on her knees.
China Central Television HQ, Beijing, China
Construction was not finished in time for the 2008 Olympics, and a tragic fire left its future in the balance. But the Chinese government pressed on, and it has become an iconic part of Beijing's skyline. It won an award for the world's best tall building in 2013, while the Wall Street Journal called it "a symbol of the capital's transformation into a modern metropolis".
Louvre Pyramid, Paris, France
Building a 71-foot metal and glass pyramid outside a former royal palace in central Paris was always going to be controversial. Yet even the architect I.M. Pei was surprised by how furious and long-lasting the opposition was to his 1980s extension to the Louvre.
Louvre Pyramid, Paris, France
The pyramid was slammed not only as an eyesore, but also a vanity project by the new socialist "pharaoh" president Francois Mitterrand. Once finished the extension gradually won over the French, and today is a prized national site. Pei used crystal-clear glass and limited the pyramid's height to complement, rather than overshadow, the surrounding buildings.
Leaning Tower of Pisa, Italy
Architecturally speaking, Pisa's tower was a disaster from day one, with the soft ground leaving it teetering dangerously close to collapse. Italian dictator Benito Mussolini saw the tilt as a national embarrassment, trying and failing to straighten it.
Leaning Tower of Pisa, Italy
Nowadays the lean is what draws the crowds, and some Pisans are so proud they oppose efforts to merely stop it toppling even further.
New South China Mall, Dongguan, China
One hundred thousand people a day were supposed to visit the world's biggest shopping mall when it opened in China in 2005. Instead it became the world's biggest ghost mall, as local people in Dongguan were not rich enough to shop there.
New South China Mall, Dongguan, China
Over a decade later the tide is finally turning, with shops and restaurants opening and a buzz growing after a recent revamp.
Glasgow School of Art, Glasgow, Scotland
The Glasgow School of Art was so unpopular when it opened in 1899 that radical architect Charles Mackintosh was not invited to the ceremony. It was half-finished as funds ran dry, and only completed eight years later.
Glasgow School of Art, Glasgow, Scotland
Over a century later, public affection for the building is all too clear from the grief that gripped the art world and ordinary Glaswegians alike after two recent devastating fires. So much so that the building is due to be rebuilt.

Fuji & gumi Games has introduced two brand new titles during TGS 2015 which happened over the weekend. The titles are called For Whom the Alchemist (誰ガ為のアルケミスト) and Shinobi Nightmare (シノビナイトメア). Both games are slated to release early next year!
For whom the Alchemist
For whom the Alchemist is the second SRPG developed by Fuji & gumi after Phantom of the Kill. The game will be story driven where players will get to know more about the lives of the 7 main characters.
What really attracts me is the 3D play field. It's quite different from most SRPG games which usually uses the 2.5D setting. The game itself have more than 30 different jobs and supports a 4 player co-op system.
Shinobi Nightmare
Shinobi Nightmare is an old-school Dungeon crawler, turn-based RPG Game. Players will accompany their pretty Shinobi and explore beautiful world and dungeons in the game. Players will also have to form a party made up of ancient warriors to help defeat monsters in these dungeons. Dungeons will be filled with traps and monsters thus it is important for us players to protect our pretty Shinobi!
I'm not sure what it is but the trailer did show that you can accompany your Shinobi into a hot spring… hmmm……. Enjoy!

Wind energy plants
- Last updated
- February 13, 2017
- Organization
- Swiss Federal Office of Energy SFOE
Wind energy plants utilise the kinetic energy of airflow to rotate turbine blades. The mechanical energy that is produced in this way is then converted by a generator into electricity.The first wind energy facility in Switzerland was put into operation in 1986 near Soolhof Farm (Langenbruck, canton of Baselland) and had an output of 28 kilowatts. In 2013, a total of 34 wind power plants produced around 85 gigawatt hours (GWh) of electricity. The largest wind park is on Mont Crosin in the Bernese Jura near St Imier: this facility comprises 16 wind turbines with a total output of 23.6 megawatts. Other large facilities are in operation in Rhonetal (canton of Valais), near Entlebuch (canton of Lucerne) and on the Gütsch (above Andermatt, canton of Uri). There is still a great deal of potential for wind energy in Switzerland. The goal is to increase the annual production of electricity from wind energy plants to around 600 GWh by 2020 and 4,000 GWh by 2050. Suitable locations for wind parks exist in the Jura range, as well as in the Alps and the western region of the central plateau. The "Wind energy plants" geodata document the current situation regarding wind energy facilities in Switzerland. All data are based on information provided by the power plant operators and are intended to function as information material for the general public. They do not take the form of official information and are not legally binding.

LONGMONT — Humans don't cause global warming, a jury of sixth graders at Trail Ridge Middle School concluded Thursday after hearing opposing arguments from their peers.
"They're pretty young for this kind of thinking. They did great," paleontology teacher Ken Poppe said after the 40-minute "trial" in his classroom.
With Earth's warming accepted as a tenet, pre-teen "lawyers" and "scientists" debated whether humans have caused it.
Eleven jurors listened intently as prosecutors and defendants flashed contradictory graphs tracking global temperatures, carbon dioxide levels, polar ice cap statistics, volcanic activity and sea surface temperatures — all of which were found Wednesday in the school's computer lab.
"The earth has warmed and cooled over many years. If it's caused by CO2, why haven't the charts shot up?" Poppe's son and lead prosecutor Caleb argued during a rebuttal.
In a climax that sent half the class to its feet and forced the judge to call for order, opponent Monique Nem slapped a contradictory graph onto the prosecution's table.
"We've proven you wrong! The CO2 levels have shot up," she said.
The jury responded more warmly, however, to Caleb Poppe's response: The graphic cited a Hawaiian source; Hawaii has volcanoes; volcanoes emit CO2.
In closing arguments, Alexia Hegy said global temperatures actually decreased in the 1960's, while the global population rose. Humans cannot be at fault, she concluded.
With the final word, defense attorney Sarah Steed countered: "It all comes back to us, the people — not the sun, not the weather. We need to turn off lights when we don't need them. Bikes can work. The environment can be richer."
Seven of 11 jurors decided humans are not to blame, but everyone agreed classroom debates make for fun learning.
"It was a hard decision, because both sides made good points," said student Samantha Roberts.
Ken Poppe said he let students choose which side of the debate to argue. Poppe personally believes global warming is cyclical and not affected by humans, while his Colorado State University student aide David Richards believes the opposite. Both, however, said they presented both sides equally to the students leading up to Thursday's debate.
"What I think is not the issue. It's what the students dig up and how they present the case," Poppe said.
Only one parent questioned Poppe's decision to hold a global warming debate. That mother expected him to present Al Gore's global warming movie "An Inconvenient Truth" as indisputable facts, Poppe said. After he explained his neutrality in the classroom, the mom allowed her child to participate in the debate, he said.
"You don't understand someone's position until you can argue it to their satisfaction," Poppe said, quoting a famous physicist. "I don't believe in Darwinism either, but I can argue it as well as any Darwinist."

Domestic and International Highlights:
The Indian Rupee opened weaker at 55.75 levels after closing yesterday at 55.47 against the dollar. The Asian peers are trading mixed amid speculation the ECB will do more to contain the debt crisis after the Federal Reserve disappointed market with no new stimulus. The intra day range for the rupee is seen between 55.50-55.80 levels.
The investors are seen turning cautious as hopes of stimulus action by central banks thinned ahead of a European Central Bank's meeting later in the day and after the U.S. Federal Reserve took no action to support the economy.
The HSBC manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) fell to 52.9 in July from 55.0 in June its biggest one-month drop since September last year. With clear signs the global economy is slowing, export orders fell slightly for the first time in nine months.
India's fiscal deficit in April-June rose to 1.9 trillion rupees or 37.1% of the full fiscal year 2012/13. The government had budgeted a fiscal deficit of 5.14 trillion rupees or 5.1% of the gross domestic product for the current fiscal year ending in March 2013.
After Pranab Mukherjee becoming the President, P. Chidambaram is appointed as India's new finance minister on Tuesday. The new finance minister would face the challenge to revive the slowing economy, which is facing number of internal and external issues.
As per our expectation, dollar rallied against the euro on Wednesday after the Federal Reserve took no new monetary stimulus after a two-day policy meeting ended. The Markets have been hoping the ECB would resume its bond buying, called the Securities Market Program (SMP) to bring down the borrowing costs for Italy and Spain which had risen to critical levels.
The Indian bond yield eased on Wednesday, The benchmark 10-year bond yield eased 2 bps to close at 8.23% from the previous close. It had risen to as much as 8.28% on Tuesday, its highest in a month.
Outlook: USD/INR maintains bullish bias for 3-4 months targeting 56 as first target. Importers still cover on dips like yesterday and exporters wait till 56 to cover.

Despite the weather being slightly less clement on the second day, and a couple of minor technical mishaps, Doug Fiddes completed this year's Ride the North in one piece. Well, apart from the hundreds of midgie bites……
He claims this photograph was taken at the end of day two, but we have our doubts – looks remarkably fresh for having cycled for two days. It does however highlight his lovely pink jumper, which he wore in support of VSA, not just because he liked the colour.
Well done, Doug

7 Golden Tips For Seniors to stay active
by Simon Roll Alive & Active
I have run Alive & Active for over 10 years now, training seniors in residential and retirement homes from the ages of 65 to 105. I have been working with them, so they can stay active and independent as possible through my exercise classes. Here are my 7 Golden Tips For Seniors to stay active.
1. Overload!!! This means pushing your boundaries and working that bit harder than you thought you could. If you merely work in your comfort zone, you'll see little or no improvement as quite simply, your body doesn't need to!
2. Exercise every day, little but often. Unused muscles get weaker and smaller, so everyday tasks get harder to do. Weakened muscles designed to support joints become lax which leads to pain and discomfort.
3. Work on posture. Strengthening your core muscles and improving posture will improve your balance.
4. Go for regular eye tests. Poor sight is major factor in falls.
5. Re-evaluate your walking pattern. Due to bad habits, confidence and lack of strength our walking technique changes increasing your chance of a trip or fall. A small correction can make a big difference.
6. Target your weak spot! It's easy to ignore the thing we find the hardest but improving this, can really change your quality of life for the better.
7. Finally, enjoy yourself! Make it fun, add music, invite a friend or include the grandchildren! Release those happy hormones and start living life to the max!
Now, there are two exercise DVD's condensing all my knowledge and experience for seniors to take part in from the safety of their own home, whenever you want…..hopefully every day!

Burger King had a remarkable creative year globally. And it's putting a bow on 2017, quite literally, with a fun stunt in France—wrapping up a whole restaurant and giving it (well, sort of) to its biggest Facebook fan there.
Sullyvan K. has posted more comments than anyone else on BK France's Facebook page—some 637 and counting. So, BK (and agency Buzzman) said thanks by giving him the biggest gift ever—his very own Burger King restaurant.
BK wrapped up the restaurant (35 workers used over 1 kilometer of material to wrap it in one night) and presented it to Sullyvan. The location now reads "Home of Sullyvan K." above the door. He was given his own parking spot, his own golden tray, his own table and even his own Whopper packaging. And he gets to eat there for free for a year.
There's a fun coda to the campaign, too: The person who writes the most comments under the newly posted web film on Facebook will also get a free year of Burger King food. In the first few hours, BK says, there were already more than 40,000 comments.

In a surprise move Apple has approved a BitTorent application for sale in its App Store. The software called IS Drive has been designed to allow you to managing ImageShack's torrent download service (ImageShack Drive is a paid subscription service).
But can also connect to other BitTorrent sites such as IsoHunt and Mininova.
In the past Apple has rejected applications for BitTorrent control app to be added to its store. In a fear that allowing the apps and illegal activity which could undermine its own music and video business.
Torrent is alos not mentioned in the IS Drive description so Apple might have let the app slip through the net. Or it may now be allowing apps of this sort since it relaxed its guidelines a time while back.
What ever the reason the new IS Drive app is available from the Apple App Store for $4.99 iTunes link.

T-Mobile to carry Samsung Galaxy S 2?
If we asked you which already announced Android phone T-Mobile customers want to see on the network, the Galaxy S 2 would likely be your answer. And if it was, then here is some very good news.
The above picture is from Adobe.com and though it might be hard to see, there is an image of the Galaxy S 2 with Touchwiz 4.0 icons. Could just be photoshop magic, but there is definitely a lot of buzz about the device arriving on T-Mobile. That would be great news for T-Mobile users.

Connect with Colour

Connect with Colour
Choose colour to connect open plan living spaces
Choosing an open plan colour scheme can feel like decorating two rooms at once. Here's how you can make your home feel connected but distinct.
The easy way to 'zone' kitchen and living spaces is to use two feature colours from the same family. Rich Teal and The Pantry sit happily together because they share green undertones. Work a neutral shade such as Shale White across both zones to marry the scheme. Keep flooring the same throughout but add a rug in the living area to subtly zone the space further. Whatever colours you choose, know that our hardworking Easycare ranges are ideal for multifunctional rooms, keeping your interiors looking great for longer.

Anyone arriving in Lytham this weekend would have been forgiven for thinking they had stepped into a bygone era as 1940s fever hit the town.
Lytham played host to the largest Wartime Festival in the North West of England and over 40,000 people were expected to visit the event on Lytham Green, alongside the iconic Windmill.
Military and vintage vehicles were displayed along the Green before parading through the streets of Lytham. As a tribute to those who patrolled the skies over Britain, replica planes from the RAF and Luftwaffe also made up the display alongside the more modern Vietnam Veteran helicopters, displaying their battle scars from their time serving in the US Military.
Encampments of Allied and Axis forces were also on display throughout the weekend teaching about life for those at home and on the Front Line during WWII, through displays of weapons and equipment, together with Battle re-enactments.
For those left on the Home Front there were many stalls to browse offering selections of 1940s memorabilia, fashion, uniforms and accessories. Or for those who wished to take life at a more leisurely pace, Rations and Refreshments were available to enjoy whilst watching a brilliant line up of 1940s entertainers.
Park View 4U Playing Fields held a weekend of events with newsreels, photos and memories of children who were evacuated from Manchester and London to Lytham. The 'Dig for Victory' campaign was also highlighted with tales of how the park was turned into allotments during the war.
If a day submerged in the 1940s was not enough for you, then the evenings held plenty of opportunity for you to dance your cares away at Lowther Pavilion Theatre with 'Hits from the Blitz' and the 1940s dance where the Bluebird Big Band provided music from the Golden Age of Swing.
If you were unfortunate to miss out on this one, make sure you don't miss the 2016 Wartime Festival. Look out for details here later in the year!
Thinking of visiting the 2016 Lytham 1940s Festival? We're literally 'down the road' from the festival. Contact us for rates and availability.

How to transit the US smoothly
The Sunday Times opens its travel clinic on a daily basis to answer your holiday queries. Today: US immigration
I read with trepidation a reader's letter about the rigmarole of transiting in the USA. My husband and I are planning a trip to New Zealand in October and will be refuelling in LA. Will we face any problems? Mary Whittard, by email
Sunday Times travel expert, Richard Green, responds: There was a time when Los Angeles International Airport, or LAX as it's popularly known, had a glamorous image. Remember the iconic flying saucer style building on arched legs that seemed to flash onto the screen every time a film or TV series featured LA? Now it's just known as one of the worst and rudest airports in America.
That said; if you are flying on an Air New Zealand to or from Auckland (which

Standing Hand to Big Toe Pose
Today we are continuing our balancing series, with a continued focus on our vestibular, proprioceptive and visual systems. Proprioception means your skin, muscles, and joints all contain sensory receptors (proprioceptors) that are sensitive to stretch or pressure in the surrounding tissues. It helps your brain recognize where your body is in space, even if your vestibular and visual systems are compromised (for example if your eyes are closed or your ears are plugged)
Sensory information about things like motion, equilibrium, and where your body is at in space is provided by something called a vestibular system. Your vestibular system is the part of your ear that includes the utricle, saccule, and three semicircular canals. The utricle and saccule detect gravity and front-to-back or side-to-side movement. In contrast, the semicircular canals detect rotational movement.
With your eyes, your visual system figures out where your head and body are in space and also your spatial location relative to other objects.
Our balancing pose for Yoga with Melissa 367 is Hasta Padangusthasana or Standing Hand to Big Toe Pose. This yoga pose highlights the imbalance that exists between the front and back of your body.
The backside of your body is often referred to as your posterior chain and includes your low back, your glutes, hamstrings and calves. These muscles are long and weak from our endless hours of sitting. Additionally our quadriceps and psoas muscles become tight and short from sitting in chairs for many hours of the day.
Furthermore hasta padangustasana asks us to focus on balance, bringing our body's center of gravity into alignment with the earth underneath us. Balancing poses liking standing hand to big toe pose ask us to come into physical equilibrium with the ground underneath us. However, as we know from our previous classes on balance, this doesn't happen by remaining still, rather from rebalancing ourselves through our proprioceptive, vestibular and visual systems from moment to moment.
Coming into balance again and again through balancing postures takes sustained effort. When we are practicing balancing postures, or the lead up poses to balancing postures we are continually centering and re-centering ourselves. The information that travels through our proprioceptive, vestibular and visual systems acts as a kind of tuning fork not only for our balance system but also for our nervous system. When we practice balance we will feel more centered and calm.
Hasta Padangusthasana is a balancing yoga pose that promotes stability as well. In order to stand on one leg you need to have strength and stability through the muscles and joints of your supporting leg. This pose will strengthen the arches of your feet, your ankles, and thighs well lengthening your calves and hamstrings.
Members: I recommend that you do the connective tissue portion of hamstring rescue before this class: 12-28 minutes in the linked video
Props Needed: Strap, Blanket and Wall
Yoga Postures/Asanas: Supta Matsyendrasana or Reclined Bent Knee Twist, Eye of the Needle or Figure Four, Supta Padangustasana or Reclined Hand to Big Toe Pose, Lunge Pose or Anjaneyasana, Pigeon or Eka Pada Rajakapotasana, Foot Series, Downward Facing Dog or Adho Mukha Svanasana, Standing Figure Four Pose, Utkatasana or Chair Pose, Warrior One Pose or Virabhadrasana One Pose, Hasta Padangusthasana or Standing Hand to Big Toe Pose, Uttanasana or Standing Forward Fold, Bhujangasana or Cobra, Paschimottanasana or Seated Forward Fold, Savasana or Corpse Pose

10 Conspiracy Theories That Turned Out To Be True. May 18, 2015 | Jake Anderson Sometimes conspiracy theories become conspiracy facts.
5 Conspiracy Theories That Turned Out to be True. There are types of stories called "conspiracy theories" and the people who teach them are considered by "society" as crazy fanatics who often need medical treatment.
What if I tell you that "society" should take some of that medical treatment, because sometimes such incredible stories that nobody believed in, turn out to be 100% true. What if I tell you that the doctors did not treat us, just wait until we die to cut our bodies? 1.

Pentagon-supported physicists on Wednesday said they had devised a "time cloak" that briefly makes an event undetectable. The laboratory device manipulates the flow of light in such a way that for the merest fraction of a second an event cannot be seen, according to a paper published in the science journal Nature. It adds to experimental work in creating next-generation camouflage – a so-called invisibility cloak in which specific colours cannot be perceived by the human eye. "Our results represent a significant step towards obtaining a complete spatio-temporal cloaking device," says the study, headed by Moti Fridman of Cornell University in New York. The breakthrough exploits the fact that frequencies of light move at fractionally different speeds. Ethan A. View full article » 1. Hard to believe? Awareness. Scary Horror & Paranormal Stories.

I've been on a granola kick lately.
I love the crunchy texture in my yogurt and oatmeal (which I eat almost every day), so I go through a lot of granola.
It all started when I bought a bag at the Amish store in town. It was flavorful and fresh, but also pricey, so I knew I needed to learn to make this myself.
This is also the season for everything pumpkin. The poor pumpkin is basically ignored until October. Then, for the next three months, it's game on.
So far this month, I've made pumpkin bread, pumpkin muffins and now….
Pumpkin spice granola.
I can definitely say life is better with pumpkin granola in it.
Granola is a very easy and forgiving snack to make. It adapts well to substitutions which is good since I adapt quite a bit when I cook. Here is the original recipe and here is my version.
Pumpkin Spice Granola
3 c. old-fashioned rolled oats
1 c. walnuts, chopped
1 c. almonds or peanuts, chopped
1 c. packed brown sugar
2/3 c.-3/4 c. pumpkin puree
1/4 c. sunflower oil*
1/2 c. honey
1-1/2 TBS pumpkin pie spice**
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
Preheat oven to 250* F. In a large bowl, combine oats, walnuts, almonds,
(or peanuts), and brown sugar. In a small bowl, combine the remaining
ingredients until well mixed. Pour over the dry ingredients and mix until
all ingredients are wet. Spread mixture on a baking sheet.
Bake for 1 hour and 15 min. Every 15 min., remove from the oven and stir
mixture to evenly bake. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
Store in an airtight container.
**if you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can use:
2-1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1-1/8 tsp. ground ginger
1/2 tsp. ground allspice
1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
*Side Note: This summer, when I attended the Farm2Home Event at Moss Mountain Farm, I met the maker of a special sunflower oil.
Made on Wayne Plantation in Scott, AR, this virgin sunflower oil is cold pressed to retain flavor, aroma, and nutrients. As an added bonus, it's made with non-GMO sunflowers, provides twice the amount of Vitamin E than olive oil, and is low in saturated fats. Sounds like healthy to me. I love it when that happens.
When I made the last batch of granola, I used this oil in place of vegetable oil. What a difference! The nutty flavor of the oil was the perfect compliment to the already nuttiness of the granola. Goodness Gracious this is Good Granola.
I guess what I'm saying is, don't be afraid to play around with this recipe. The slightest substitution can make a surprising difference.

It could have all been averted for a lousy billion.
This is a fascinating account of the days leading up to Bush's 2003 decision for war against Iraq by then Prime Minister of Spain Jose Maria Aznar, as reported by England's The Independent. Here is the fascinating story in its entirety:
A transcript of an eve-of-war conversation between President George Bush and former Spanish Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar has revealed a previously undisclosed initiative to avert war in Iraq by spiriting Saddam Hussein out of the country.
"Yes, it's possible," Mr Bush told the Spanish leader. "The Egyptians are talking to Saddam Hussein … He seems to have indicated he would be open to exile if they would let him take one billion dollars and all the information he wants on weapons of mass destruction."
But Mr Bush seems to shrug off the idea, saying "it's also possible he could be assassinated", and he makes made clear that the US would in any case give "no guarantee" for Hussein. "He's a thief, a terrorist and a war criminal. Compared to Saddam, Milosevic would be a Mother Teresa."
The conversation, recorded by Spain's ambassador to the US, Javier Ruperez, and published this week in El Pais, offers a unique insight into Mr Bush's brusque interaction with one of the few foreign leaders he trusted. Here was a leader already on the march towards war, expressing impatience and anger at those that disagreed with him.
Mr Bush does admit that averting war would be "the best solution for us" and "would also save us $50bn," greatly underestimating the cost to the US treasury of nearly five years of warfare. But he also talks of how he planned to exact revenge on countries, that did not back the US in its drive to war.
"We have to get rid of Saddam. There are two weeks left. In two weeks we'll be ready militarily," Mr Bush told Mr Aznar.
It was February 2003 at Mr Bush's Crawford Texas ranch, less than a month before the invasion. Almost 150,000 US troops and their British allies were sitting in the Kuwaiti desert. The troops were well within range of any weapons of mass destruction, military analysts have pointed out.
US administration officials had already prepared public opinion for war by raising fears of Saddam Hussein's nuclear programme and his ability to create "mushroom clouds." But the transcript reveals the two leaders were more concerned about getting a fig leaf of international approval for the war, than any imminent threat from Saddam.
The transcript revolves around Washington's frustrations at failing to get UN Security Council approval for war – the now-famous second resolution.
At the time, both Tony Blair and President Bush were officially open to a diplomatic resolution of the Iraq crisis – including a negotiated exile of Saddam – but the Spanish Ambassador's notes reveal peace was never really an option.
With public opposition to the war in Europe in full swing, Washington's two strongest allies, Mr Aznar and Tony Blair were under intense anti-war pressure.
President Bush needed to appear to be serious about diplomacy to "help us with our public opinion," pleaded Mr Aznar. The hope was that by being seen to looking for alternatives to war, the growing anger against US policy and Europe would be assuaged.
"I'm not asking for infinite patience," Mr Aznar said, but "simply that you do what's possible to get everyone to agree".
Pointing to the internal rows within the White House, where Vice President Dick Cheney was leading the drive to war, Mr Bush said he had gone to the United Nations "despite differences in my own administration" adding that it would be "great" if the proposed second resolution authorising war was successful.
"The only thing that worries me is your optimism," said Mr Aznar who is now a visiting scholar at Georgetown University. "I'm optimistic because I believe I'm right," the President replied. "I'm at peace with myself."
Mr Bush also chastised Europeans for being insensitive to "the suffering that Saddam Hussein has inflicted on the Iraqis" adding rather oddly: "Maybe it's because he's dark-skinned, far away and Muslim – a lot of Europeans think he's okay."
He then attacked Jacques Chirac, who had publicly challenged the US drive to war, saying the Frenchman "sees himself as Mr Arab."
It was at a time when the US right was trying to orchestrate a boycott of French wines and other goods. Restaurants across the US began using the name Freedom Fries instead of French Fries.
In one of the most chilling insights into the hardball politics Mr Bush was playing in order to get his way, he warned that countries which opposed him would pay a price, mentioning the Free Trade Agreement with Chile that is waiting for Senate confirmation and Angola's grants from the Millennium Account.

Tower Mills represent the most famous windmill design of all time. These very expensive windmills were first popularized in 12th century when only the rich nobles had the funds to erect them on their territories.
First examples of windmills that were created in Europe were of Post Mill design. They appeared first around 11th and 12th century, and they never went out of fashion even when other more efficient designs rose in popularity.
Smock Mills are the most advanced and commonly used designs of windmills that was introduced in 17th century as cheaper alternative to expensive and hard to build Tower Mills. With long history and presence all over the world, smock mills today represent some of the most popular traditional windmill designs of all time.
Windmills are useful for many things, but one of their most popular use case scenarios is their ability to transform the wind power into powering water pumps. With efficient designs being made for several centuries, windpump mills have been made more than million times all over the world.

Compact laser beam position system
MRC Systems has introduced a new closed-loop Compact system for the precises stablisation of laser beams on a defined position and direction. It is optimised for highest positioning stability and compact size. Typical applications are the stable coupling of ultrashort laser pulses into hollow fibres or amplifier modules as well as the compensation of pointing or fluctuations due to vibrations in laser applications with critical positioning demands.
The controller electronics of the new product is realised on a single board in Eurocard format. Due to the intelligent amplification concept the system can be powered with a usual 12V wall power supply. This allows for flexible laser arrangements and a straightforward integration into existing setups. The compact design also leads to a relevant price reduction compared to previous systems.
The standard product is equipped with Piezo-driven steering mirrors and 4-quadrant-diodes with integrated read-out electronics. In this configuration, the position as well as the intensity level are directly displayed on the detector. It is also possible to adapt the system for the connection of other components.
