The Fayetteville City Council will hear proposals this week for building new parks and hiring more police officers.
Both proposals, City Manager Ted Voorhees said, would require property tax increases, if the council votes to approve the extra spending.
Voorhees said he'll detail both proposals when council members hold their second budget workshop, which is scheduled for Wednesday at 5 p.m. at City Hall.
The council agreed Monday night to set a June 10 public hearing on a proposed $202.8 million city budget for the coming fiscal year.
The council may choose then to adopt the budget following the public hearing.
At the May 28 council meeting, Voorhees will present highlights of his recommended budget for fiscal 2014.
The city's tax levy of 45.6 cents per $100 in value is unchanged in his proposed budget, which is balanced.
Voorhees has proposed, however, raising two fees for a combined $22 per residence on annual tax bills.
Over dinner Monday, Voorhees told the council that he would present three proposed park-building packages Wednesday.
One package, he said, would require a half-penny tax increase. Another package, he said, would require a 1-cent tax increase, and the third would need a 1.5-cent tax increase.
Plans by the council to put a $45million park and recreation referendum before voters last February stalled late last year.
Also Wednesday, Police Chief Harold Medlock will present his proposed reorganization for his department. That reorganization includes a net increase of four officer positions, Voorhees said last week.
Those extra officers are included in Voorhees' recommended budget.
But, Voorhees said Monday, the city is going to apply for another round of federal COPS grants, and the council will hear a proposal to hire additional police officers that would require a property tax increase.
In other business, the council voted 10-0 to:
Amend an ordinance to increase the parking allowed for restaurants.
Amend an ordinance to reduce perimeter landscaping requirements for abutting commercial properties.
Approve various revisions to the city's "secondary fire zone," which was adopted in 1961 for part of the downtown area where buildings often share walls. The changes, Fire Chief Ben Major said, would recognize modern building and landscaping codes and encourage new development while maintaining fire protection.
Approve the demolition of four dilapidated structures at the following addresses: 1021 Bragg Blvd.; 218 S. C St.; 521 Mechanic St.; 1337 Taylor Drive.

The story opens with a poem and a premonition just outside Ft. Lewis in the early days of World War II. Young newlywed Maudie Cameron watches her husband and others around her do their part to help on the homefront. Feeling left out, she is determined to help with the war effort in the only way she can: she becomes a landlady and rents out one-room cabins and a trailer that resides on her secluded property. But Maudie, often to her husband's chagrin, becomes more than a mere landlady to the succession of renters that make their way up the path that leads to her door. Her adventures are at times sad and frightening, but more often lighthearted and funny. Click here to hear a sample of this audiobook

Gucci's Sukey Bag to Benefit UNICEF
This is the sixth year of Gucci's partnership with UNICEF, and to commemorate the ongoing relationship, during which Gucci has raised $7 million in support, they are offering this limited edition Sukey bag in a demure pale gray to benefit the cause.
A full 25 percent of the retail cost of each gray Gucci Sukey bag will go to support UNICEF's Schools for Africa campaign, which improves schools in disadvantaged regions of Africa "to create those conditions that will attract children to school, keep them there and provide them with a safe and protective environment where they can learn and play."
The bag itself has a philanthropic story; Gucci's Creative Director Frida Giannini co-chaired a fundraising event in support of UNICEF back in 2008, and one of the prizes offered included an opportunity to name a bag. The winner chose the name "Sukey," and while we don't know exactly what they paid for the privilege, the event raised $2.7 million for Schools for Africa.
The $1,295.00 Sukey is one of Gucci's best-selling handbags around the world, and every one (in this color) sold until February 28, 2011 will be an investment in the future of Africa. So, if you were going to buy a new luxury bag this year, buy this one.

-- was that not only.
Our foreign policy and how it affects us since our title on policy and I would expect -- but bottom line the biggest runaway expense we have right now oddly enough is on health care.
Because interest rates are so -- our debt actually takes a back seat.
So the rising cost of healthcare -- running now at a double digit rate and increased.
Our overall health care costs in this country are -- Adam 11%.
-- 11%.
Just by comparison the average American receives a two and a half percent -- you can do the math.
Not good Richard Jackson already has -- he's the CEO Bob Jackson health care and Richard that's.
Disturbing -- I mean -- health care costs are out of control the president's healthcare -- was supposed to alleviate that.
It seems just the opposite.
What what's happening.
Here well basically he didn't try to cut about -- and basically -- didn't solve the financing.
Health -- and so you know like -- I'm gonna pay 11% in taxes January -- the cult of Obama here.
Most people -- not send more.
11% more just for obamacare -- -- job killer payments and we should explained by the but it will be surtax on on selling certain assets property.
The Medicare so -- in the rest video -- it took to.
Eleven well senator of -- -- -- the world LLC.
Let me.
We paid what three point 8% taxes or residence woke up to cost them so they'll won't cost us twenty John what are we get better.
We don't get anything in my mind -- obamacare.
This adds no value to the system created 2600 pages in order to try to take over health care.
And at the same -- we don't really solve -- -- fundamental problem.
That we have an economic this year.
We have doctors -- control here on -- him like literally it is illegal for you -- pick somebody in -- hospital ordered drug -- -- doctor.
On the other hand we have patients could actually spending money but they're not spending here they're not paying -- and so fundamentally -- economic.
I just match -- -- investment.
Is that they're very -- it would pick -- hard stuff the Democrats come up with.
They don't -- -- another world.
You had to come up with something god -- -- That would provide health care for those who don't have it.
What would a -- First of all I'll.
You know from -- standpoint.
I think that you start over and there are some positive things.
You know for us -- civilians -- between page bill that talks about.
To what faced when he six preexisting conditions some of these other things that they're selling the whole process song.
But what we have to do is go back to the free market and and and be able to identify.
Patients and doctors working.

Taking advantage of the 'Savage' party scene – having the 'craic' in Galway city

- Taking advantage of the 'Savage' party scene – having the 'craic' in Galway city
Shop Street, Galway |
So I boarded a bus of twenty-five strangers, with nothing more than a few extra shirts, toiletries, and the solid conviction that it would all work out for the best.
I mean, I wasn't about to back out, despite the fact that I didn't know a soul. I hadn't been to Galway yet – and every time I told somebody that I was planning to go, their eyes would light up with an almost sadistic pleasure.
"Aw, you're in for some grand craic this weekend," they informed me. "Galway's got a savage party scene, like."

Which probably built up my expectations more than it should have – except for the fact that I wasn't disappointed at all. Galway was fantastic.
So, what does it mean to bus across Ireland with two dozen young adults and cash to burn?
It means checking into a hostel centrally located on the downtown strip of the city – which is magnificent until about four in the morning, when you're trying to sleep and everyone else, newly turned out of the closing pubs and clubs, decides to hold a bit of a sing-song outside your window. I am serious – I don't think anyone actually sleeps in Galway. We were lying awake listening to drunken renditions of "Galway Girl" and "American Pie" until about five, when one of the girls in our room lost her head entirely and got in a shouting match with the guitarist from our window (the rest of us didn't stop giggling for another half an hour).
It means being wooed by employees all along Shop Street and Eyre Square with astonishingly generous "concessions packages." We don't have this in the States, but it's a tactic that Irish pubs and clubs use to snag new customers; they offer you a round of shots free, or a free bottle of champagne, to get you to come to them rather than their competitors. (Take notes, America.) Obviously, we selected one of the best offers – and, as anticipated, stayed there, buying additional pints and dancing until two in the morning.
It means meeting friendly Irish men from all thirty-two counties – all extraordinarily confident in their ability to make new friends – in two of the most beautiful pubs I've ever seen in my life, The Quays and The Skeff. They were absolutely gorgeous buildings, laden with carved dark wood and stained glass and brimming with conversation, and atmosphere. I could have stayed there all night.
I can't quite sum up the vibes of the weekend, but I will say this: Ireland has a reputation for having a less energetic scene than some of its European peers. People say that there's a slow, relaxed pace of life here, and that "there's not much going on, so." Granted, this is definitely true of some of its rural areas – but I had as much fun in Galway as I have had in any major city in the States, and there was too much going on to sample in a mere two days.
In conclusion: Ireland does have a party scene to be proud of. Anyone who says otherwise just hasn't tried.

Big Questions in Modern & Contemporary Art
Art and context: Monet's Cliff Walk at Pourville and Malevich's White on White Art & Context: Monet's Cliff Walk at Pourville & Malevich's Suprematist Composition: White on White A conversation with Sal Khan, Steven Zucker & Beth Harris
⇐ Use this menu to view and help create subtitles for this video in many different languages.
You'll probably want to hide YouTube's captions if using these subtitles.
- So one theme that I´m starting to appreciate more is that there´s been some pieces where you just look at it,
- you just experience it and I think this Monet is kind of like that. Even if no one knew this was a great work of art
- or they just saw it for the first time in their life and they knew nothing about Monet, they´d say "Well that's pretty. That's interesting and it really captures something nice."
- And then you have pieces like this which are clearly abstract and, not that one can't appreciate it,
- I think one can, but it feels that the piece of art by itself - you're like "OK, that's nice, it's white on white. Which is it's name.
- It's a square at an angle inside of another square." I can see how that might look aesthetically nice above my sofa or something
- but there's not quite that same, at least at a superficial level, of appreciation.
- Here you can appreciate all the brush strokes not even knowing this was Monet.
- I think you're absolutely right. I think that now for us in the early 21st century, it is in some ways much easier to get a quick meaning
- that can feel satisfying when we look at the Monet. What's ironic though, is when Monet first painted Impressionism,
- people didn't feel that way. In fact this kind of art broke rules and boundries.
- It challenged people in ways that I think we have a very hard time understanding. Critics made terrible fun of this.
- They called it unfinished. In fact, the very word "Impressionism" comes from criticism in a newspaper
- that was making fun of Monet; saying this isn't real painting, this is a mere impression.
- Something you dashed off quickly, huh?
- Yeah, because back then a "real painting" you'd carefully -
- every brush stroke you are trying to mimic reality. This clearly looks quicker.
- But Monet was trying to do something that he felt was really important which was to register on the canvas
- not what his mind knew an umbrella or a woman on a cliff looked like, but rather what light actually looked like at that moment.
- And so we have the sense of the wind, we have the sense of the flickering of color and the way it might change a second later or a second before.
- What I'm hearing is is that Monet kind of did both. When we really cite these great moments in art
- he was able to do something that was a huge transition and influential of things that came after him.
- I suspect that he wasn't saying "I'm going to be Avant-Garde and I'm going to break all the rules,"
- he just wanted to do something that he thought would be compelling.
- I think that that's right.
- He wanted to capture a certain emotive state or a certain way of perceiving the world.
- And that he felt was visually true.
- And that's why someone like me, not an expert, connects with it not even knowing the historical context.
- I would argue that we connect with it because we live in very much the same culture that Monet lived in.
- Middle class culture, one of leisure, one where you work and then when you don't work you take a vacation
- and you go to a vacation by the seaside and you spend time with your family. I think our world is his world
- so it's an easy painting for us to relate to. But when we get to something like the Malevich,
- we go into a world that's very different from our world - a world of Russia during the revolution.
- When I see a painting like that, if you didn't tell me anything I would say this was done in the '50s or '60s. When was this done?
- So this is done in 1918 and it was done in Russia by Kasimir Malevich.
- Think about what was happening in Russia at this moment. This was the Bolshevik Revolution.
- So these are very close together in time. Thirty-six years, which is nothing, it's a generation. I guess one thing that pops out at me
- when I see this is that it's 1918. I mean, we've looked at other modern pieces that at least on a superficial level look
- similar; they are abstract, they are not trying to show something in reality. The painting is itself, it's not trying to show
- a scene of people at a cliff having a nice picnic or whatever like that. So one thing is when I see this,
- I start to think that all these other folks in the 50s and 60s are a bit derivative. I mean, he did this in 1918!
- Well yes, but this had a very different kind of meaning. Malevich understood this kind of abstraction, what he called "Supremitism,"
- actually having an important political, almost spiritual message actually.
- Let me see if I can give you some sense of really what he was after.
- Did he make up that word "Supremitism?"
- He did.
- Is that a word now in the English language, or the Russian language?
- Well it's a word that refers to an art movment that he led.
- I see, "Suprematist."
- Exactly. Malevich was absolutely for the Russian Revolution. Russia was this deeply corrupt culture that had had a tzar.
- There was a terribly destabilized society, desperate poverty, so there was real need for change. The idea that Russia could produce a
- kind of new utopia was something that he was absolutely swept up by. He tried to create
- an art that would express that. In fact, that wouldn't just express that but would help make that happen.
- So I want to go back to the experience of seeing these two paintings in the museum.
- You walk up, you see the Monet, and you get it, and you love it and you are right there with it.
- But you get to the Malevich and it's coming from a different world and you need all this art history.
- You need history to get it.
- That's right because if you just went up to the Malevich at the museum you would say, "That's nice,"
- I mean after some of our conversations I think I'm already starting to appreciate it more than I would have in the past,
- and I would have started thinking about "Oh, this is abstract, it's just white." But you are right, you appreciate it
- much more when you think about it. My brain keeps going back and forth as to "Is this good?"
- Should the art be able to stand on its own? Which is how I've personally traditionally viewed art.
- The art should stand on its own and how I react to it is what matters. That's what I'm taught, too. Just what you think,
- that's right versus all the context. It is true that all the context does make it far more interesting and gives a lot more
- texture and understanding to what the piece is but then I feel like the piece itself isn't necessarily the focal point.
- I think we maybe too much want the artist to be a hero. We want the artist to have succeeded in some way.
- Maybe the artist is, to a large extent, an accumulation of a culture at a particular moment
- and giving voice and vision to that culture.
- That's actually a fascinating way of thinking about it. Any student of history might look at a newspaper clipping from 1918
- or might read a book and have to capture a little bit of how people are thinking at that time,
- or what their fears or their hopes are. What I'm appreciating more is that a piece of art like this
- gives you a core subjective feeling of how, at least what some people in the artistic community were feeling.
- It gets worse though.
- It gets worse?
- It does get worse. Take a look at this. You called it white-on-white but in fact it's this cool, internal square
- and this warmer white square outside it. Notice that he has not aligned those squares. So the smaller square-
- It's like titanium-on-off-white or something.
- Exactly. So he's tipped that inner square a bit. That's not arbitrary, he spent a lot of time thinking about that.
- There is a reason for this. At first when we look at this canvas, it couldn't be more flat. It couldn't be more two-dimensional, could it?
- No.
- You have a square against a square. What could be less volumetric? But then, those are two different whites.
- Maybe we're actually seeing that darker, cooler white as deeper in space. Or maybe it's in front of that
- warmer white. So all the sudden now we have a three-demensional relationship.
- How much is that reading into it?
- Well he actually wrote about this. He wrote a good deal about it and he taught. He was really interested
- in art as a way to push society forward, that is, art itself had agency. It could have political power.
- This is interesting because - and I'm appreciating this more because once again, we saw this work in 1918
- in someone's grandpa's garage, and you asked the grandpa "What is this?" he's like,
- "Well I had some titanium paint and some off-white paint and I felt like painting a square inside of another square,"
- not so interesting. But all the sudden when you have someone who, to some degree, has a voice in their time
- and is able to articulate this, it's interesting not because of it's technical sophistication or anything like that
- but because society at that point in time thought it was important and gave him a voice.
- He was trying to voice what he thought was important.
- That's why it transcends just this aesthetic or its technical.
- I think it does. Although I think he would be disappointed if he heard you say that. Because interestingly,
- I think he wanted it to stand up by itself. Here was the Russian Revolution. He wanted to separate himself from
- Bourgeois culture of the 19th century. He did not want to do what Monet was doing because that was a culture of privilege and of wealth.
- Instead he wanted to create a kind of art that was so essential, that had worn down to its pure roots, so that anybody,
- no matter how little education they had, could actually understand it and be moved by it.
- We might say it failed. But nevertheless, that was very much part of his intent.
- One question- I asked this about the Picasso as well, and even Malevich - he lived in a time that was fairly modern.
- It sounds like his intentions were really to get to this purity and not this overly intellectual - or I guess he
- was trying to raise people up - but why did he chose this medium? Why didn't he do it as a big titanium sculpture?
- Why didn't he put radio waves in it? Why didn't he do something else with it?
- Well certain artists that were at that moment actually tried to do that. You might think of people like Tatlin - constructivists.
- Malevich really did stick with painting but this was a period in Russia which was quite poor and they didn't
- have the money to pull this off. They could create models, but there was a terrible civil war in Russia right after
- the revolution right after the First World War and the country was deeply impoverished.
- I get the sense that some artists would have done that if they could have -
- Malevich definitely would have. I mean, he was interested in technology.
- Deeply interested, absolutely. He was in love with the airplane, he was in love with the idea of movement, of speed,
- of that new technology. He was trying to find a language that he felt was as utopian and as pure as the world he was hoping to create.

Online Store
The Official Online RBS 6 Nations Store is open. The store has everything you need to get behind your team during the RBS 6 Nations, plus the store is now fully stocked with a much wider range of rugby merchandise.
The 27-year-old hasn't featured in any competition since Ireland's home defeat to England in this year's RBS 6 Nations on February 10, during which he sustained a hamstring injury.
Having recovered from that knock, Sexton then damaged a tendon in his left foot at the end of training with Ireland ahead of their RBS 6 Nations clash with Italy on March 16.
Back fully-fit, he kicked seven from seven, amounting to 16 points, for club side Leinster as they defeated Zebre 41-22 in their penultimate regular season PRO12 encounter in Italy.
But Leinster head coach Schmidt insisted Sexton did much more than just succeed from the kicking tee and is adamant his return will be welcomed by all.
"We would always back Jonny to make his kicks, but on top of that he got through a power of work, especially considering he hasn't played in so long," Schmidt told the Irish Independent
"It was great to have him back out there. He is a great general out on the field, and he gave us a fair bit of direction."

NH basks in attention from presidential campaigns
Friday, September 7, 2012
PORTSMOUTH, N.H. (AP) � New Hampshire is basking in attention from both presidential campaigns with thousands turning out to see President Barack Obama in Portsmouth and more headed to Nashua for a Mitt Romney rally. Speaking to about 6,000 people at Strawbery Banke, Obama said Friday it was "not good enough" that private employers created just 96,000 jobs last month but said it will take a "long tough journey" to recover from the recession. New Hampshire's unemployment rate remains significantly lower than the national average. But even voters with jobs say they feel squeezed. Barbara Dymond owns a taxi service. She said she had to lower her prices so people can get to the grocery store. She said she backs Obama and was glad to hear him emphasize that change is a long process. |

I've had my Fiesta for about 2 months and over the past 3 weeks I've noticed that it's stuggling to get up hills at any decent speed. Also, if I take my foot off the accelerator there is a massive loss of power and speed, eventually it will come to a halt even if going down a hill. Has anyone else had this issue or know what I can try to fix it? Cheers

Kindly Cultures: The microbial life in yogurt is an example of bacteria at its best.

Key concepts
Food science
Have you ever wondered how yogurt is made, and why some yogurts differ from others? As most yogurt containers advertise, yogurt contains "live cultures." This means that there are living bacteria in the yogurt! These are not the harmful kind of microbes that cause you to get sick. Instead, these cultures have the amazing ability to turn plain old milk into a yummy yogurt treat. Do the bacteria affect what the resultant yogurt culture looks, feels, tastes and smells like? In this activity you'll find out!
Bacteria, which are a type of microorganism, turn milk into yogurt. There are certain species of bacteria that are commonly used to make yogurt, and these species are good bacteria that can actually help you! If you look at the ingredients listed on the yogurt product's packaging, you can often figure out the exact species of bacteria that it contains. Some species you might find listed include: Streptococcus thermophilus (S. thermophilus); Lactobacillus bulgaricus (L. bulgaricus); L. acidophilus; L. casei; L. rhamnosus; Bifidobacterium animalis (B. animalis, or sometimes just "Bifidus"); and B. bifidum.
To turn milk into yogurt, these bacteria ferment the milk, turning the lactose sugars in the milk into lactic acid. The lactic acid is what causes the milk, as it ferments, to thicken and taste tart. Because the bacteria have partially broken down the milk already, it is thought to make yogurt easier for us to digest. Additionally, eating yogurt can help replenish the necessary populations of bacteria in your gastrointestinal tract (stomach and intestines) after they have been lost from, for example, taking antibiotics or having an upset stomach.
• Six canning jars with lids, eight-ounce (235-milliliter) size or larger
• Large pot
• Water
• Half gallon of whole milk. Other types of milk can be used instead.
• Candy thermometer with a range of 100 to 200 degrees Fahrenheit (40 to 90 degrees Celsius)
• Stirring spoon
• Large double boiler (or a thick-bottomed pot) with lid
• Large pan or sink that can be plugged
• Permanent marker
• Two different types of yogurt. Try to pick types with multiple features that differ, such as one kind that is white and unsweetened (such as a Greek yogurt) and another that is artificially colored (such as by the food dye Red 40) and sweet. Use new, unopened containers.
• Two clean forks
• Measuring tablespoon
• Cooler
• Adult help and supervision with heating and handling hot liquids
• Wash your hands with soap and rinse them thoroughly.
• With an adult's assistance, sterilize the canning jars, their lids and rings. Do this by separating these pieces and putting them all in a large pot, adding about one inch (2.5 centimeters) of water, covering the pot, and boiling the water for 10 minutes. Then turn off the heat and let the jars sit, still covered, in the pot.
• Be careful when sterilizing the jars—the pot and everything inside of it will become very hot. Also be careful when handling the hot milk later in the activity.
• To successfully make yogurt, a good, sterile technique is needed. Make sure that all cookware is clean and handled properly to keep unwanted bacteria out of the yogurt cultures.
• Pour the half gallon (two liters) of milk into the large double boiler or thick-bottomed pot.
• Heat the milk at 185 to 195 degrees F (85 to 90 degrees C), keeping the pot covered. If you use a thick-bottomed pot instead of a double boiler, stir frequently. Be careful not to let the milk boil over!
• Remove the pot from the stove and place it in a pan of clean, cool water, until the milk is close to 130 degrees F (55 degrees C ). Alternatively, you can cool the pot in a clean, plugged sink with water.
• While the milk is cooling, prepare your jars. Carefully remove them from the pot in which they were boiled and arrange them on a clean surface. Be careful, they will be hot! Empty out any water. Do not to touch the inside of the jars. Immediately put the lids and rings on each jar.
• You will be making three jars for each type of yogurt. Use the permanent marker to label three jars with the name of one of the yogurt types, and label the other three jars the other yogurt type.
• Open the first yogurt container and stir it with a clean fork. How does the yogurt look and smell?
• Add one tablespoon of the yogurt to each of the three appropriate jars. Put the lids back on. Thoroughly clean the measuring tablespoon.
• Open the second yogurt container and stir it with a new clean fork. How does the yogurt look and smell?
• Add one tablespoon of the second yogurt to each of the three remaining jars. Put the lids back on.
• Once the milk has reached 130 degrees F, carefully pour it into the jars, filling them to about one half inch (1.5 centimeters) from the top. Cover the jars immediately with their lids and tighten them. If you are using canning jars that are larger than eight ounces (235 milliliters) in size, only fill them up to about six ounces (175 milliliters). (Note: The yogurt bacteria can be killed if exposed to temperatures above 130 degrees F, so be careful not to add milk that is too hot!)
• Place the jars in a cooler and seal it.
• Quickly heat up about one gallon (3.8 liters) of water until it is at 122 degrees F (50 degrees C).
• Add the hot water to the cooler so that the jars are surrounded, but the water is well below the lid rims.
• Put the cooler in a warm location and do not disturb it for three hours.
• After three hours the yogurt cultures should be done if the temperature does not drop below about 100 degrees F (38 degrees C). Check on the jars. How do the yogurt cultures look? Have they solidified?
• Refrigerate the jars overnight.
• The next day, open and examine the yogurt cultures in each jar. Compare their appearance, firmness, smell and taste to the original yogurts.
• Did the yogurt cultures all gel? Are they firm or runny? Do they smell good or bad? How do they look, smell and taste compared with the original yogurt that was used? How are the cultures of each type of yogurt similar or different from each other? Is this the same way the original yogurts differed from each other?
• Extra: In this activity you may have focused on how the taste and color of the original yogurt affects a yogurt culture based on it, but you can explore how other aspects of the yogurt affect the resultant yogurt culture. How do added stabilizers (such as gelatin), using organic yogurt compared with regular yogurt or other factors, like fat content, affect what a yogurt's culture is like?
• Extra: You can test if the amount of starter used in the yogurt culture makes a better product. How does using more or less yogurt affect the yogurt culture? Does it take a longer or shorter time to solidify?
• Extra: Try testing which type of milk makes the tastiest yogurt. Try using whole, 2 percent, skim, soy, goat or other types of milk. How does the type of milk affect what the resultant yogurt is like? Which milk works the "best"?
• Extra: In this activity you cultured the yogurt for three hours in the cooler, but varying the amount of time that the yogurt is cultured for can affect its flavor. Try culturing the yogurt in the cooler for a longer amount of time, such as seven hours. How does increasing the culture time affect the yogurt culture? Does it look, smell or taste different?

Olin: Those that forget DS is the number one portable are "silly"
Joseph Olin, president of the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences, has reminded us that while Apple sells a gazillion Apps and games for iPod and iPhone, Nintendo DS is still number one when it comes to portable gaming.

Interview – Joseph Olin, AIAS president (part 1)
The Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences has become increasingly relevant in recent years, with its DICE-based "gaming Oscars" now easily the industry's most prestigious annual awards ceremony. While the core is always well-rewarded at the event, the AIAS is a over-arching affair, meaning games that don't involve shooting people in the face are considered "important" as well. Bizarre.
AIAS president Joseph Olin took time out of his busy schedule to chat on social gaming trends, mobile gaming, the emerging 3D market, and how independent developers can differentiate themselves from established studios in the current economic climate.
He also talks a bit about whether games are art or not, which we'll cover in Part 2. Part 1′s after the break.

DICE sells out
Las Vegas expo DICE has sold out, the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences confirmed this morning, a week before it's to start.
The summit, held at the Red Rock Resort from February 17-20, will include speeches from EA's John Riccitiello, Capcom's Jun Takeuchi and Bethesda's Todd Howard.
"DICE was designed to be an open, collegial and productive gathering so we have always limited our attendance," said Joseph Olin, president of the AIAS.
"It's gratifying to see the level of support the Summit receives from our peers, especially in what we all know to be a challenging year."

AIAS' Olin: Blu-ray not long-term advantage for PS3
Speaking to Gamasutra, Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences president Joseph Olin has claimed that PS3′s Blu-ray drive may not be the winning asset Sony had hoped.
"I look at Blu-ray being the obvious short-term differentiator, but if everything goes to digital download – and over time, it will – then the Blu-ray device no longer has the same competitive advantage, or the benefit is not as strong as the feature is," he said.
And when's digital distribution going to wipe physical media from the face of planet game, Big Joe?
"Perhaps maybe five years? Maybe seven years? I think the challenge with digital distribution is more because of piped-to-the-home bandwidth than the technology within the systems," he added.

The veterans piled off the chartered buses in front of the World War II Memorial, some in wheelchairs, some using canes, all determined to pay homage to each other and their fallen comrades from more than half a century ago.
Metal barricades and signs about a closure due to the shutdown of the federal government awaited them.
The graying and stooped men, wearing blue baseball caps, red T-shirts and garlands of red, white and blue flowers, surged forward, accompanied by members of Congress - the same lawmakers who, hours earlier, had triggered a government shutdown by failing to pass a budget resolution.
A shout went up. The barricades had been moved - it was unclear by whom.
Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Miss., said he believed the Park Service opened the gates. Rep Bill Huizenga, R-Mich., said the congressmen did it. Rep. Steven M. Palazzo, R-Miss., said the barricades just seemed to part.
"I'm not going to enforce the 'no stopping or standing' sign for a group of 90 World War II veterans," said a U.S. Park Police officer, who declined to give his name. "I'm a veteran myself."
The veterans, from Mississippi, were visiting the memorial on the National Mall of as part of an honor flight program. They had chartered an $80,000 airplane, and their plans were too far advanced to postpone when the government shut down, said Wayne Lennep, spokesman for the Mississippi Gulf Coast honor flights.
The group arrived at Reagan National Airport at 10 a.m., on a chartered flight from Gulfport, Miss. By 11 a.m., they were on the Mall, where the many memorials and monuments were supposed to be closed.
"It's the best civil disobedience we've seen in Washington for a long time," Huizenga told the veterans.
And they were not the only old soldiers determined to claim their small piece of the nation's capital, even on a day when the federal government seemed to have let them - and the rest of the country - down.
At the Korean War Memorial, a group of veterans from Puerto Rico also moved barricades aside in order to lay a wreath. The veterans represented members of the 65th Army regiment, which fought in Korea.
Anthony Mele, president of the regiment's honor task force, said a Park Police officer admonished the group that the site was closed, and then "literally turned his face and walked away" as the men moved the barriers in order to enter.
"We went on the other side of the barriers like good soldiers should, and we laid our wreath there," Mele said with a smile. "We were told that all permits were rescinded. I thought they said all permits were canceled except ours."

I started out in life as a young lad engaged on the Lord's Cricket Ground Staff as a professional cricketer and played a half dozen or so games there before entering the RAF to do my national service. Upon release from the Air Force, I took up cricket coaching and also as a groundsman for several cricket clubs. After my marriage, I went into selling insurance before finally retiring. I took up writing then and have written various books on cricket, mostly novels. I plan to write more in the future.

I have experienced the birth of four children in six years. I have attempted to nurse all of them, only once have I failed. My first went real well. I did all the necessary preparation (nipple exercise, etc.) For the first 2 weeks I was very sore but then I started to heal and all was well until I weaned him at six months.
My second was the most successful in terms of length. I breast fed her for 10 months. Then came my third child. I did all the necessary nipple exercises taking care not to over do it or do too little. Well, I was sore for the first two weeks as with the others, I kept thinking "soon I will be able to breast feed without clinching my teeth." Well I was wrong. From day 2 or 3 to 3 months I nursed thinking that soon my nipples would heal and all would be fine. I ended up taking her straight to the bottle one night when I couldn't take it any more, so she was essentially a bottle fed baby.
Then came Sarah. The only red head of the bunch. After I delivered her one of the nurses gave me a set of O-Cal-ette Breast Shields. I did a little nipple exercising just like with the others, but in this case I not only breast fed her for 7-8 months (she weaned herself at that time) I did not have any discomfort at all during the course of time that involved any kind of nipple soreness, cracked or otherwise.
I believe in all honesty that if I had had the O-Cal-ette breast shield after I had my third child I would have been able to enjoy the leisurely and less expensive way of feeding my baby.
Thank you so very much,
Mrs. Paula W. (a very pleased customer)
