The European Union's multi-billion research funding programme is supposed to help society meet the grand challenges it faces. But there is concern that the participation of large corporations is skewing research agendas towards narrow interest, and leading to the substitution of public for private funding. Will the EU's new Research Program, Horizon 2020, avoid these pitfalls?

Located two minutes from the Palais Royal (and another few minutes to the Louvre), the three-star Ascot Opera is transforming into a boutique hotel with somewhat affordable rates.
3Castex Hotel
starAddress 5, Rue Castex (Marais)
The Castex Hotel is a cozy three-star charmer located on a quiet side street just west of the Bastille. While not cheap, it's a polished and reliable pick, and sometimes even affordable.
4Clos Notre Dame
starAddress 22 Rue de l'Hirondelle (Latin Quarter)
The three-star Close Notre Dame is the newly revamped Delhy's Hotel, a EuroCheapo pick for more than a decade. Unfortunately, the hip makeover raised the rates to a place that makes a Cheapo shudder.
5Grand Hotel du Loiret
starAddress 8 rue des Mauvais Garcons (Marais)
Located across from the Hôtel de Ville, the Grand Hotel du Loiret offers fresh, three-star rooms at very reasonable rates. However, look elsewhere if you plan to stay out late

9Hôtel De La Paix

The Hotel de la Paix is a three-star boutique hotel located near the brasseries of Montparnasse. We'd recommend considering the hotel if its rates dip down into "Cheapo territory."
10Hotel de la Tulipe
starAddress 33 Rue Malar (Near the Eiffel Tower)
Located on a quiet side street near the upscale shops of Rue St-Dominique and the popular Rue Cler market, the three-star Hotel de la Tulipe is a little slice of Provence in the heart of Paris.

18Hôtel Georgette
starAddress 36 Rue du Grenier St-Lazare (Marais)
In its previous incarnation as the Hotel du Sejour Beaubourg, the Hotel Georgette was "budget boutique." As the Georgette, it's simply "boutique."
19Hotel Minerve
starAddress 13, rue des Ecoles (Latin Quarter)
Another family-run option on the rue des Ecoles, the Hotel Minerve provides three-star rooms, many with frescoes of Medieval Paris.
20Hotel Saint Jacques
starAddress 35, Rue Des Ecoles (Latin Quarter)
The Hotel Saint Jacques is a perfectly lovely three-star with a great location, "Belle Époque" style, and rates that can sometimes be a solid deal.

25Splendid Hôtel Tour Eiffel
starAddress 29, Avenue De Tourville (Near the Eiffel Tower)
The Hotel Splendid is an aptly named splurge. What else can you say about a place that dishes up 48 three-star rooms that are fresh, clean, and offer larger-than-life views of the Eiffel Tower?

Critical Essays
Ernest J. Gaines American Literature Analysis
Gaines is a raconteur of the agrarian South, specifically of the black experience in rural Louisiana during the three decades following World War II. His chief setting, former slave quarters located near the town of Bayonne, closely mirrors the actual surroundings of Gaines's boyhood: the quarters on River Lake Plantation and the town of New Roads. This world, remote for most readers, becomes in Gaines's novels a literary microcosm, inhabited principally by blacks, Creoles, and Cajuns, all treated with a simple honesty and direct style that are the hallmarks of his fiction.
Prevalent themes in Gaines's fiction often originate in his own experience. His male characters search for an identity at a time when change was hard-won and self-esteem required the courage to reject a demeaning place in a world in which wealth, prestige, and power belonged exclusively to white people. In those turbulent years of the mid-twentieth century, escape from poverty and racial servility often involved flight to the North or West, but at great emotional cost and with a deep sense of alienation and loss. In contrast to the stance of more militant African Americans who, writing during the 1960's, were advocating confrontation and even violence, Gaines has defined courage in the young black male as the power to endure with dignity the injustices of a racist society ("The Sky Is Gray" and A Lesson Before Dying).
Gaines's work reveals that the...

Listen to LeAnn Rimes on iHeartRadio
UPDATE (TMZ) - LeAnn Rimes tells TMZ that she was NOT drunk when she performed on "X Factor" Wednesday night, contrary to LOTS of speculation.LeAnn says she was in no way impaired, and any awkwardness was because "I was trying to help this 13-year-old girl who was having some trouble with the song."LeAnn believes Carly Rose Sonenclar was very nervous and had difficulty with some of the notes and she was doing her best to help her get through it. LeAnn's lawyer, Larry Stein, who spoke with LeAnn, tells TMZ "LeAnn was not performing the way she would normally perform, because she was on stage with a young girl."LeAnn says she does not understand why people believe she was drunk. Stein has a theory: "There have been a lot of untrue things said by others and it feeds into this sort of thing."One mystery remains -- we found out LeAnn made a plate of food backstage and spilled it everywhere. Stein told us he didn't know anything about that, but LeAnn insists she was stone cold sober.READ MORE: TMZ
(TMZ) - LeAnn Rimes took the stage on 'X Factor' last night, and delivered a weird performance that has a lot of people wondering if she hit the bottle before taking the mic.LeAnn joined finalist Carly Rose Sonenclar for a duet. The good news - Carly Rose did great. But when LeAnn chimed in, she looked wobbly and seemed to meander as the song went along.
At one point, LeAnn clutched Carly Rose, arguably to maintain her balance.Check out the video:

I know there will be those of you out there who will take the Johnny Rotten "Too Cool For School" approach and say that the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a joke and who cares if you get in or not, but I personally find it absolutely ludacrous that once again that Rush has been passed over for induction.
This is one of the biggest and greatest bands of all time, yet as far as I know haven't even been nominated to be inducted. I may be wrong on whether or not they were even up for consideration, but either way, for them to still not be in the HOF while others who I feel are far less deserving get in is a travesty.

Creamed spinach goes well with beef, chicken or fish. This restaurant-quality side is a great way to get anyone to eat the...

In this case you maybe squeezing out some of the nutrients but squeezing out the liquid is the only way to achieve the desired end result. For me it's worth it in this case as I absolutely love this side dish. Eating and cooking is also about balance. It's not like I am going to eat this everyday so if I eat this tonight then tomorrow I will eat my broccoli (and hold the cream as well) :-)
The note indicates that you "can" put the spinach in a colander and place something heavy over top. By leaving the spinach overnight, this helps to press out the a lot of the moisture without having to do the work yourself. You don't have to do this...just make sure you squeeze the spinach very well to remove as much moisture as you can before proceeding with the recipe; otherwise it'll be too watery. Cheers!
Blanching the spinach in water first is done to retains it's color (see the "Cooking Vegetables in Water" lesson for information on blanching and retaining vegetable pigments).
If you would like to try your method for cooking the spinach before hand then by all means do so. The best way to really know what works for you is to test both ways and see which way you prefer. Cheers!
I made the creamed spinach as part of the Crepes Florentine recipe. I had no idea that this would taste so good. I will definitely try the creamed spinach with eggs next.
I have to admit that I was really dreading implementing this part of the recipe because I was imagining having to set up at least two separate stock pots, 2 separate colanders, and separate ice water stations to evenly process the volume of this spinach. (read: time consuming & messy). However, I found the process far more manageable, and even dare I say enjoyable, by using a round basket strainer ( from my deep fryer pan kit), to blanch in smaller batches, chill in ice water, and then dump in the strainer. It worked great!
Thanks for a surprisingly simple, yet delicious, recipe!

Roots of history in the UAE go back more than five thousand years, when you would have found people fishing, trading camels and diving for pearls.
The United Arab Emirates consists of Abu Dhabi, Ajman, Dubai, Fujairah, Ras al-Khaimah, Sharjah and Umm al-Quwain. They're a federation of states located in the southeast of the Arabian Peninsula, next to Saudi Arabia.
The UAE was established in 1971 and rapidly grew in economic status with the help of foreign investment.
UAE is a member of OPEC. Oil was discovered in 1967 in Abu Dhabi, and the Emirates quickly became interested in unification for their common benefit. The U.S. soon overtook Britain as their major business partner, and Abu Dhabi became the largest oil producer in the UAE.
At present, the UAE has one of the fastest-growing economies in the world. Ol, financial services, media and tourism are their major activities.
There are approximately $350 billion of active construction projects, including what will soon be the world's tallest man-made object, the Burj Dubai tower.
Other fun things on the way: a man-made archipelago of islands called The World, DubaiLand (bigger than Disneyland) and the world's largest shopping mall, which will also be in Dubai.
Apparently somebody in Dubai knows how to throw a good party.
The UAE is full of things to do if you can handle the scale they do them on. Football, Tennis, falconry; Formula F1 racing, camel racing (with robotic jockeys) and even skiing!

The Theory of Moral Sentiments, ed. D.D. Raphael and A.L. Macfie, vol. I of the Glasgow Edition of the Works and Correspondence of Adam Smith (Indianapolis: Liberty Fund, 1982).
This is a facsimile or image-based PDF made from scans of the original book.
This text-based PDF or EBook was created from the HTML version of this book and is part of the Portable Library of Liberty.
The Theory of Moral Sentiments, Smith's first and in his own mind most important work, outlines his view of proper conduct and the institutions and sentiments that make men virtuous. Here he develops his doctrine of the impartial spectator, whose hypothetical disinterested judgment we must use to distinguish right from wrong in any given situation. We by nature pursue our self-interest, according to Smith. This makes independence or self-command an instinctive good and neutral rules as difficult to craft as they are necessary. But society is not held together merely by neutral rules; it is held together by sympathy. Smith argues that we naturally share the emotions and to a certain extent the physical sensations we witness in others. Sharing the sensations of our fellows, we seek to maximize their pleasures and minimize their pains so that we may share in their joys and enjoy their expressions of affection and approval.

"Convenient to MSU"
We were in Starkville for one night for move in day. We were only at the hotel long enough to sleep. The room was comfortable and clean. The bed was very comfortable. The rooms were much larger than we thought they would be.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
Staff and location were good. The hotel needs to be renovated. The room smelled of smoke although it was suppose to be non smoking. The counter top vanity was detached from the wall. The door had a chain lock like you would see on a door in a home. They had a bunch of workers there that was hanging outside of their rooms which made my daughter and i […] very uncomfortable. I would not stay there again. 閱讀更多Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Great location, poor hotel service, etc"
Poor quality of hotel service. I went with a group and I have to wait because the attendant decided that he has to go, so I have to wait for another office clerk to complete my check-in. The office was full at that time. Another person in my group received a key to a room that was already assigned and occupied. Surprise!! Cleanliness of the room was […] bad too. I was afraid to sit on the bedcover; I removed it completely instead. The carpet does not look good either; bring some sandals to walk on it. Even though was a non-smoking room, it smelled like an astray. Location was the best of all, if you do not mind the other factors. 閱讀更多Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

"Check the rooms before you rent them"
Upon arrival baby powder was found on the bathroom floor. That indicated to me that the bathroom floor hadn't been cleaned. When we tried to call the front desk, we found that the phone didn't work. We called the front desk from the cell phone and were assured it would be fixed. Before we left in the morning (2-night prepaid Expedia room-no refund), […] these problems were expressed as well as the mold on the shower curtain and the holes in the wall. I was assured most of them would be tended to prior to our arrival back to the room. We arrived back at 9pm and nothing had been done. The floor still had powder, the phone still was broken and the shower curtain still had mold. I will never stay there again. I did inform the front desk that the only reason we stayed the second night was because the room was prepaid. I was absolutely disappointed. 閱讀更多Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"NIce location...close to everything"

The hotel was runned down and not 3 minutes from my destination....internet information is very misleading. Air barely worked and no hot water. Area was just nasty all around. I will not stay there again.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Give the room a thorough check before you unpack"
I came back from England a day early for work in Starkville. All the other local hotels were outrageously priced, and this seemed the most reasonable choice. Long story short, the staff were friendly, but the rooms were in desperate need of upkeep and maintenance. There is only so much a cleaning staff can do, so I don't put the entire problem on them. […] The drain lever in my tub was broken (literally, half of it was missing), so the water from my showers collected in the tub and I had to manually drain it. Mind you, I could have requested a different room, but I was working 16 hour days and had no time to repackaged and unpack in a new room; besides, this was the second time I changed rooms during my stay. Anyway, the cleaning staff were nice, but only did a basic cleaning. They never cleaned the tub, I can tell you that. Nor did they clean my coffee pot. But, the floors were perfect, the bed was comfy, and the hotel was right down the road from the university, which was where I was working. The stay wasn't a bad experience, just a bit inconvenient for the hygiene -conscious person that likes a shower more than once every few days. The room came with a fridge and microwave, which is more than I can say for some of the nicer hotels I've stayed at. 閱讀更多Expedia 旅客真實的評價

"Big party weekend for some people!"
The hotel is fine, however, there was some kind of huge party going on all night long in the parking lot. The next day I inquired about all of the people and was told that this "blue and white"event is held once a year and was the night that we stayed there. I wish that we would have known about this before we made reservations so that we could have […] stayed somewhere far away from there and could have gotten some sleep! It was also a little scary! I still rated the hotel nice since we stayed there before and the hotel itself is fine. 閱讀更多Expedia 旅客真實的評價
it reminds me of a motel rather than a hotel with the outside doors. we had to ask for more towels each day we were there. the non smoking room didn't smell like a non smoking room. if you want to sleep, put in ear plugs, people outside were up until at least 2 am. too expensive for what it was.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

The things I didn't like: About the cleanliness, there was still pledge on the counter by the tv that was not wiped off. The remote to the tv did not work. I think there should have been more bigger towels and there were no wash cloths in our room the first night we stayed. The things I did like: I liked the space in the room.

They had several work crews there, and breakfast was none exisitant […] after they left for work, the one morning there was things left, the housekeepers was stuffing their pockets with the wrapped food.....geeish!! An attendant could be benificial to keeping the place cleaned up after breakfast too. Just felt to dirty to eat their. 閱讀更多Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"Not Impressed!"
The saying you get what you pay for was accurate in this case. My daughter and I were there for just one night. We ended up with a room that had an adjoining room door that looked as if it had been broken into a few times. The lock didn't look secure. We were a little nervous. My daughter came out after taking a shower and told me that there was a lot […] of water on the floor. I thought it was just because the shower curtain didn't keep all the water in, but she said it was more than she felt it should have been. She cleaned up what she could. About a hour later we are watching TV and someone starts banging on the door. We couldn't tell what they were saying so we didn't open the door and I called the office to tell them so they could send someone to check. No one answered the office phone. We were pretty freaked out about that time. A few moments later someone bangs on the door again and it was the manager. He identified himself this time. The bathroom was leaking water into the room below us so he had us packing up and moving into a different room at 9:30 that night! The new room was cleaner and in much better shape. It irritated me that they would put us in a room of that shape when they had another room empty that was much cleaner and overall better shape. The manager was very apologetic and I realize some of the issues we had were out of his control but I can't imagine why they would put anyone in that room when they had much better rooms sitting empty. 閱讀更多Expedia 旅客真實的評價

Weight training: Free weights vs. machine weights
By Mayo Clinic staffOriginal Article: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/weight-training/AN01023

Edward R. Laskowski, M.D.
Dr. Edward Laskowski is certified by the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, including subspecialty certification in sports medicine, and is a fellow of the American College of Sports Medicine. He is co-director of the Mayo Clinic Sports Medicine Center and a professor at College of Medicine, Mayo Clinic.
He has been on the staff of Mayo Clinic since 1990 and specializes in sports medicine, fitness, strength training and stability training. He works with a multidisciplinary team of physical medicine, rehabilitation and orthopedic specialists, physical therapists, and sports psychologists.
Dr. Laskowski is an elite-level skier and an avid hiker, cyclist and climber. He approaches sports medicine from the perspective of a physician and an athlete.
In 2006, President George W. Bush appointed Dr. Laskowski to the President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports, and he has received a Distinguished Service Award from the Department of Health and Human Services for his contribution to the Council.
Dr. Laskowski was a member of the medical staff of the Olympic Polyclinic at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City and has provided medical coverage for the Chicago Marathon. He serves as a consulting physician to the National Hockey League Players' Association and is a featured lecturer at the American College of Sports Medicine's Team Physician Course.
Dr. Laskowski, a Cary, Ill., native, has contributed to Mayo Clinic's CD-ROM on sports, health and fitness, a website guide to self-care, and hundreds of Mayo Clinic articles and booklets in print and online. He is a contributing editor to the "Mayo Clinic Fitness for EveryBody" book, and he has presented lectures throughout the world on health, fitness and sports medicine topics. His teaching expertise has been recognized by his election to the Teacher of the Year Hall of Fame at Mayo Clinic.
"There are many myths and misconceptions about exercise and fitness in general, and also many traditions that don't stand up to scientific scrutiny," he says. "My goal is to provide the most up-to-date and accurate information on sports medicine and fitness topics in a way that you can practically incorporate into your life."

Weight training: Free weights vs. machine weights
For weight training, is it better to use free weights or machine weights?
from Edward R. Laskowski, M.D.
No single piece of weight training equipment is best for everyone. Both free weights and machine weights — as well as other types of resistance — can help you increase your strength. The choice really comes down to your personal preference and your access to equipment.
Free weights are versatile and inexpensive. They also simulate real-life lifting situations and promote whole-body stabilization.
Machine weights also can be effective weight training tools — as long as you use machines that adjust to your body dimensions and allow full range of motion of your joints.
The bottom line? Choose a weight training system that you enjoy and that fits into your lifestyle. And whatever type of resistance you choose, remember that proper technique is more important than the specific type of equipment.

6" x 8" Speakers Information |
6x8 Car Speakers Upgrading your car speakers is the best and most affordable way to improve your sound system. An after-market set of speakers is better able to handle a wider range of frequencies, giving the lower notes greater depth and making the higher notes sound more defined. After-market car speakers are built with materials that are durable and temperature resistant. For example, most auto speakers include a rubber or foam surround for enhanced durability. Our wide selection includes various sizes of full-range 2-way, 3-way and component speakers. 6x8" speakers are great for those who want to have a smooth blend of higher and lower frequencies. These speakers typically will produce more bass than a comparable circular speaker due to the increase in cone area and the larger excursion. These speakers can also be found as a 6" x 8" speaker component system. Make sure to check out the popular brands we carry such as Pioneer, Kenwood, Alpine, JVC and more! |

Fiber supplements: Safe to take every day?
By Mayo Clinic staffOriginal Article: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/fiber-supplements/AN00130
- With Mayo Clinic gastroenterologist
Michael F. Picco, M.D.
read biographyclose windowBiography of
Michael F. Picco, M.D.
Michael F. Picco, M.D.
Dr. Michael Picco has been with Mayo Clinic since 1999. He is board certified in internal medicine and gastroenterology. Dr. Picco is an assistant professor of medicine at College of Medicine, Mayo Clinic, and a consultant in gastroenterology at Mayo Clinic in Florida.
He has authored numerous publications in the area of gastroenterology, including original research, editorials and textbook chapters. He works with a team of gastroenterologists that takes care of complex gastrointestinal conditions and has a particular interest in diarrheal illnesses and inflammatory bowel diseases (ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease). He is also active in medical education in training new gastroenterologist and internists.
"Mayo Clinic's website is an invaluable resource for patients and their families," Dr. Picco said. "Informed patients are better able to participate in their own health care. A patient's participation is vital to the treatment of his or her disease. I hope to assist in helping patients understand their digestive problems and current treatments that are offered. This will allow for better communication between patients, their physicians and other health care professionals."
Dr. Picco serves as a reviewer of new research for several medical journals in the area of gastroenterology and is an active member of the American Gastroenterological Association, American College of Gastroenterology and the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of America. He serves on numerous committees that address physician training, research and clinical practice in gastroenterology, both at Mayo Clinic and at the national level.
"Patients need to know about their disease, what to expect, the latest treatments and side effects so that they can make informed decisions about their health care. Gastrointestinal disease affects not only patients but also their families. My goal is to assure that our website provides accurate, reliable information and resources for patients. We must always provide the latest, most cutting-edge information to assist patients in dealing with their medical problems," Dr. Picco said.

Fiber supplements: Safe to take every day?
I find it difficult to eat enough fruits and vegetables. Is there any harm in taking a fiber supplement every day?
from Michael F. Picco, M.D.
There's no evidence that daily use of fiber supplements — such as psyllium (Metamucil, Konsyl, others) or methylcellulose (Citrucel) — is harmful.
Fiber has a number of health benefits, including normalizing bowel function and preventing constipation. It's best to get fiber from food, because supplements don't provide the vitamins, minerals and other nutrients that fiber-rich foods do. But fiber supplements can contribute to the recommended daily intake.
Fiber supplements can cause abdominal bloating and gas, at least initially. So if you have intestinal problems, talk to your doctor before adding a fiber supplement to your diet. It's also a good idea to ask your doctor or pharmacist whether fiber supplements interact with any medications you take.
Fiber supplements can decrease the absorption of certain medications, such as aspirin, warfarin (Coumadin) and carbamazepine (Carbatrol, Tegretol). Fiber supplements can also reduce blood sugar levels, which may require an adjustment in your medications or insulin if you have diabetes.
If you plan to take fiber supplements, start with small amounts to avoid problems with gas and be sure to drink plenty of fluids every day.

You'll Soon Be Able To Buy Alcohol Where You Can Now Buy Porn
Good news, everyone! The goddesses have finally decided to respond to our demands for a campus liquor store after the closing of the 41st and Market booze vendor. As West Philly Local reports, applications for the heavily contested space (currently an adult video store) were rejected by the Zoning Board in April, but a recent vote of 3-1 has overturned that decision. Politics!
Like a lonely, frustrated caterpillar morphing into a wino butterfly, the space may start the turnover process as early as August, although there's no official renovation timeline yet. The liquor store is also slated to be part of the "Premium Collection" of the Wine and Spirits chain, which means that there'll be mini-bottles of Patrón at the cashier and more than two varieties (flavors? colors? sunset blushes?) of Franzia for sale. Cheers to that!

BL-006A - Stadler Form "William" Ultrasonic Humidifier - Black
Ground / Parcel Shipping
Stadler Form "William" Ultrasonic Humidifier - Black
Created with the most modern engineering and loaded with more advanced features than any other in its category, when you need a humidifier to do the job right, William will. As Stadler Form's self-proclaimed masterpiece, William (BL-006A) exceeds expectations in terms of coverage area, power consumption and noise level. Standing only about a foot tall, William silently delivers moisture to rooms up to 1,000 sq ft, all with a conservative 40 Watt power rating.
Unlike humidifiers that boil water or require distilled water to operate, ultrasonic humidifiers vibrate water at an extremely high frequency, releasing tiny droplets that form an ultra fine fog in the air. To prevent minerals and bacteria in the reservoir from contaminating the droplets, William is equipped with an anti-calcium cartridge and Ionic Silver Cube™. The Ionic Silver Cube™ maintains water purity in the reservoir while the anti-calcium cartridge removes minerals and calcification from the newly emitted moisture.
Anti-Calcium Cartridge:
The ion exchanger in the cartridge removes minerals from the water, effectively eliminating the white dust often created by ultrasonic systems that tends to collect on nearby objectsIonic Silver Cube™:
Using patented technology, the Ionic Silver Cube inhibits bacteria growth and maintains water purity by releasing permanently silver ions into the reservoirAdditional Features:
William's other impressive features include an integrated hygrostat, preheating function (for enhanced mist distribution), adjustable timer, night mode (with dimmed lights), auto shut-off, and a turnable mist diffuser with fine mist selectionCare and Maintenance:
