3 Cool Tips and Tricks3 Cool Tips and Tricks@ Deviant LinksBig ThumbnailsSearch Observations @ Deviant LinksWhen you want to link to another deviant, the old method described in FAQ #81 is to use the code :devdeviant:. DeviantART quietly rolled out a new twitter-style deviant linking method: just put the @ symbol before the deviant name and you've got a snazzy link. Awesome! Know it. Use it. elee0228 compels you. See? I just used it right there.Combined with the totally awesome new mention feature (beta), it's going to really encourage interaction on the site. It looks like right now that it just searches for the @ symbol anywhere, so words that use @ in the middle, like idolmaster, get screwed up. E-mail addresses work ok though.Edit

Marjoram Yoshii (Ring Dream)Yet another reason to like Ring☆Dream (リング☆ドリーム): they have released a new design for an upgraded Marjoram Yoshii (マジョラム吉井) and she's been working out! She is a ginormous woman who manages to make the large Yamabuki Asahi (山吹旭) look small. I'm digging her new Miku-inspired idol outfit too. Here's what she looked like before in her 1 through 4 star evolution progression:Better yet, this version is a Voice Rare which means she gets a voice actress in addition to the artwork. You can hear her 3 different
Awesome Pic of the DayAwesome Pic of the DayEvery once in awhile, I come across a picture that takes my breath away. My DeviantART page has been kinda bland recently, so I thought it would be cool to dedicate a section of it to feature these awesome pics. You'll find it under a section called Awesome Pic of the Day. It's much easier and quicker to post these, and I'll try to keep it updated daily or as close to it as I can get. If you think it's a good idea, let me know, and I'll keep it around. I'll archive the history of pictures in this journal entry.About Today's PicFrom the 2ch muscle girl threadAwesome Archives
Ring Dream Just a quick post about an online trading card game that has been sucking away all my time. It's called Ring☆Dream (リング☆ドリーム).

There's a wiki that has some useful information for those that know how to use

Please Think Before you Write Ok, so just throwing this out there, perhaps this will be an unpopular view, but I don't think I'm being unreasonable.I'd just like to mention publicly, that I, as well as artists in general, are not art vending machines.You don't type suggestions in, and then have a slot where artwork comes out for free . Important to Note: I am not addressing any individual in particular. If you think this is about *you* specifically ( whoever you are)- don't. This about the private notes I get, with alarming volume, where people feel they can simply request artwork from me for free. I get a *lot* of these. Which prompted me to post something about it. I usually just ignore them, or, if I feel particularly polite that day, I send them a note back saying I don't do requests.But they never stop o_O. And it's not that I mind suggestions in comments under artwork, such as: "Oh, I hope one day you will paint _________." or, "
Popular 'Sue' Traits and How to Use Them CorrectlyThis is the third time I've posted this. The first two times, I had to delete it due to dA lagging on me and sta.sh screwing up...oh well.There's a lot of crap on the internet about what makes a character a Mary Sue/Gary Stu and what does not. Well, here's what I personally think about certain traits that some people overdo and how you can use them in your work without butchering them to the point of Uber-Sue Wonderland. This will tie in with my How to Roleplay Efficiently and How to Create a Good Horror OC journals. You don't have to agree with me on any of this. All opinions are my own, and I'm not trying to bash any particular OCs out there. I'm just trying to clear up some things and help people with OC development. Enjoy.1. Tragic PastsAlright, you know how a lot of OCs out there who are classified as Sues have tragic pasts? They come a dime a dozen, right? Well, I don't think the input of a tragic past is t

600 Points Giveaway [closed]It is since I've joined DA that I keep reading about those giveaway, raffles... They intrigue me, look funny! I've always wanted to hold one of them, sooner or later. Guess time has come Why now? Well... I've just come back from Lucca Comics & Games - the best and biggest comics, games and cosplay fair we have in Italy. It reminds me when I was there last year and I had a bad car accident on my way back home. I don't know how to describe it correctly in english.. my car got hit by a very big jeep from behind, the thrust was so intense it made my car tip over and land on the car in front of me, then rebounded several times on the road crashing sides of the car and the roof of my (at this point destroyed) vehicle. Fortunately I didn't get any serious injuries, but I had to rest in bed for one month and for four months I have been away from fairs and events … But - hey - I've been lucky, I'm still here, and back in action!

Getting this extra-attention is nice, of course, but I think I'll keep these lotteries small and personal in the future.

Backstage News on Rock-Cena II, Sandow Gets a Rock Bottom, More
by Staff - February 13, 2013
- After his segment with CM Punk at last night's SmackDown tapings, WWE Champion The Rock participated in an off-camera segment with Damien Sandow. Sandow interrupted The Rock talking about the city of Little Rock. Rock went around the ring and asked fans if they wanted to see Sandow get a Rock Bottom. Rock went back in to give Sandow a handshake but ended up hitting him with a Rock Bottom and a People's Elbow.
– On a related note, fans in attendance last night noted that many people left after The Rock's segment and didn't stay for the Big Show vs. Chris Jericho main event.
– A WWE source notes that while many fans have complained at the idea of having John Cena vs. The Rock II at WrestleMania 29 this year and have suggested other opponents for Cena and Rock, no match is going to make the company more money and sell more pay-per-views than Rock-Cena II. Because of this, many people within WWE would be very surprised if Cena-Rock II didn't happen this year.

The rug is very nice but you must know that the colors in the photos aren't even remotely close. The rug is a dull, deep muted ox blood color. If you want gold, don't buy it. Think, muted, dark maroon with taupe accents
looks nothing like picture on site. stout construction. very heavy but disappointingly muted colors. completely lacking pattern intricacy shown on line. too much trouble to return. a big disappointment.
The price and size of this rug make it an excellent value. Although the description said 'wine' in the color, the picture looked more red and the golds looked more gold. We we got it, it was exactly as described. It actually looks great in my new house. I thought the wine color was a little too purple at first, and I almost sent it back. But when we finally took it completely out of the packaging and unfolded it, the purple became a better wine/red color. I'm glad we kept it and it looks great! The quality is spot on exactly what I wanted and the price was ridiculous! I would have had to pay waaaaay more for a rug that size anywhere else. We are very happy with it.
This rug arrived quickly and was well very well packed. It is a high quality rug though the colors are more muted and "earthy" than they appear on the site. What looks on screen like gold is more of a tan and the main color is a rusty/brownish-red. I love the feel of the rug--thick and soft--under my bare feet (this is in the bedroom) and though a bit disappointed in the colors, I expect that they will grow on me. Overall I am pleased with the purchase.
I purchased this rug for my large master bedroom to go with the burgundy/wine/gold bedding I bought previously on O.co. When it arrived and we unwrapped it, it had a rather large hole completely through the middle portion of the rug. Fibers had begun pulling out of it. On further inspection, the colors were completely not what they looked like on the site. They are browns, oranges, and greens. The design on the border looks more like Thanksgiving turkeys than the traditional Oriental pattern because of the coloring. Thankfully, because of the hole (probably made by a forklift at shipping facility) the return to Overstock was really easy. O.co has a really fantastic return system and made it easy for us to both return that rug as well as buy another one (that is simply gorgeous). Although I don't recommend this rug, I highly recommend Overstock for any rug purchase. They are simply the best both for quality and prices!

The installation of the APR FSI Fuel Pump onto any VAG 2.0T FSI engine should be carried out using all of the factory recommended installation procedures and precautions. The notes, recommendations, and precautions in this document are intended as a supplement to those already provided by VAG. This entire document must be read and understood before attempting to install your APR FSI Fuel pump. WARNING: Direct Injection FSI fueling systems run at very high pressures. The pressure in the fuel lines must be relieved prior to removal of the fuel pump to prevent serious bodily injury. Please consult a factory-approved repair manual (i.e. Bentley manual) for the proper procedures and precautions.To ensure that your vehicle is ready for the installation of the APR FSI pump, you must be aware of the condition of the mechanical components that drive the pump in your 2.0T FSI equipped vehicle. This is critical to the operation and longevity of your vehicle and your APR FSI Fuel Pump. The high-pressure FSI fuel pump used in the 2.0T FSI equipped vehicles is mechanically driven by the intake camshaft and is therefore directly tied to the vehicle valve train assembly. In addition, there is a low-pressure feed pump at the fuel tank of your vehicle and a fuel filter with integral pressure-regulator that are important to the operation of the APR FSI pump. To add to the complexity, there are many auxiliary sensors and pressure relief valves that are all critical to the proper operation of the direct injection fueling system on your vehicle. It is the responsibility of the customer and/or the installer to ensure that all the vehicle components driving the FSI fuel pump are in good working order and are not in a state of excessive wear or failure prior to the installation of the APR pump. Volkswagen of America, Inc. has released a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) stating that there is a known problem concerning premature wear of the intake camshaft lobe and camshaft follower that drive the FSI high-pressure fuel pump. This wear has been known to cause fuel delivery issues and fuel rail pressure fluctuations. If this wear goes unchecked, wear can also begin on the base of the FSI high-pressure fuel pump. In some cases, this wear can result in a complete failure of the intake camshaft which may result in extensive damage to the engine valve train, head, and other related components. The published TSB describes the proper method for inspecting your vehicle for this type of wear and APR, LLC Tech Article "APR FSI Fuel Pump Installation Notes, Recommendations, and Precautions";

Hi: 13° Lo:6°
By Tristan Harris Tuesday 19 February 2013 Updated: 20/02 23:30
RESIDENTS in Bromsgrove and Rubery are being warned they will be caught and prosecuted if they persist in watching TV without a valid licence.
The warning comes as figures reveal more than 170 people in Bromsgrove district were caught without a TV licence last year.
That number is lower than neighbouring Redditch, where 530 were caught without one, and Worcester, where more than 680 were prosecuted.
Mark Whitehouse, TV Licensing spokesperson for the West Midlands, said: "The data released today shows evasion remains at historically low levels of approximately five per cent, with the overwhelming majority of people ensuring they are correctly licensed. In order to be fair to the law-abiding majority who do pay for their licence, we'll continue to pursue the small minority of people do not pay.
"We do understand some people may find it difficult to pay in one go, which is why we offer numerous ways to spread the cost. Payment options include a weekly cash payment plan, a savings card or a monthly Direct Debit scheme, which can be set up very quickly online or over the phone. We also work with a range of money advice organisations – their staff can provide useful information and payment advice to help people budget for a TV Licence. If people decide to watch TV without being properly licensed, they risk prosecution and a fine of up to £1,000."
Head of Creditor Relations at StepChange Debt Charity, Richard Haymes said: "TV Licensing makes it easier for us to help clients keep within the law. We welcome the many ways to pay – this will help people on lower incomes plan and meet their TV Licensing requirements and we would ask anyone experiencing difficulty with payments to contact TV Licensing so they can provide additional advice."
A colour TV Licence currently costs £145.50 and is required by anyone watching or recording TV programmes as they are shown on TV, whether they are using a TV set, computer, or any other equipment.

SUNNYVALE, CA and ESPOO, FINLAND -- (Marketwire) -- 01/29/13 -- Nokia Growth Partners expands presence in China with two senior hires
Nokia Growth Partners (NGP), a global venture firm, today announced the launch of its third fund with a further US$250 million long term commitment from Nokia.
Nokia Growth Partners will continue to invest in high potential businesses within the mobile ecosystem in the U.S., Europe and Asia. NGP also announced its expanded presence in China with the appointments of David Tang as managing director and Lu Guo as principal.
"Over the past decade, Nokia has developed an innovative venturing strategy," said Timo Ihamuotila, Nokia executive vice president & chief financial officer. "Our ongoing commitment to Nokia Growth Partners reinforces Nokia's support for a vibrant mobile ecosystem and our determination to collaborate with industry innovators to build great mobile products."
"Nokia Growth Partners is delighted with Nokia's continuing commitment, which recognizes strong financial performance since our formation in 2005," said John Gardner, managing partner of Nokia Growth Partners. "What sets NGP apart from pure financial investors are the partnerships and insights our invested companies get from their close association with Nokia. In the past year, NGP has also realized several successful exits, including the IPOs of Morpho and Inside Secure and sales of Swype, Summit Microelectronics and Netmagic. We are excited about our existing strong portfolio of companies and their potential impact globally."
"We are pleased to welcome David Tang and Lu Guo to the NGP team and look forward to their contributions to our ongoing investment activities in China, an important market for Nokia," said Paul Asel, managing partner of Nokia Growth Partners. "David Tang is well known in the Chinese venture community as an advisor to leading mobile businesses such as UCWeb and Ganji. NGP has enjoyed a long relationship with Mr. Tang during his earlier tenure as vice chairman of Nokia China."
David Tang and Lu Guo together have over 35 years global technology and investment experience. David Tang joins Nokia Growth Partners from AMD where he was Corporate Senior Vice President and President of AMD China. Lu Guo joins from Keytone Ventures where he was Vice President responsible for mobile and Internet investments. They will be based in Beijing.
It should be noted that Nokia and its business is exposed to various risks and uncertainties and certain statements herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, those regarding: A) the expected plans and benefits of our partnership with Microsoft to bring together complementary assets and expertise to form a global mobile ecosystem for smartphones; B) the timing and expected benefits of our strategies, including expected operational and financial benefits and targets as well as changes in leadership and operational structure; C) the timing of the deliveries of our products and services; D) our ability to innovate, develop, execute and commercialize new technologies, products and services; E) expectations regarding market developments and structural changes; F) expectations and targets regarding our industry volumes, market share, prices, net sales and margins of our products and services; G) expectations and targets regarding our operational priorities and results of operations; H) expectations and targets regarding collaboration and partnering arrangements; I) the outcome of pending and threatened litigation and regulatory proceedings; J) expectations regarding the successful completion of restructurings, investments, acquisitions and divestments on a timely basis and our ability to achieve the financial and operational targets set in connection with any such restructurings, investments, acquisitions and divestments; and K) statements preceded by "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "foresee," "target," "estimate," "designed," "aim", "plans," "intends," "will" or similar expressions. These statements are based on management's best assumptions and beliefs in light of the information currently available to it. Because they involve risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from the results that we currently expect. Factors, including risks and uncertainties, that could cause these differences include, but are not limited to: 1) our success in the smartphone market, including our ability to introduce and bring to market quantities of attractive, competitively priced Nokia products that operate on the Windows Phone operating system that are positively differentiated from our competitors' products, both outside and within the Windows Phone ecosystem; 2) our ability to make Nokia products that operate on the Windows Phone operating system a competitive choice for consumers, and together with Microsoft, our success in encouraging and supporting a competitive and profitable global ecosystem for Windows Phone products that achieves sufficient scale, value and attractiveness to all market participants; 3) reduced demand for, and net sales of, Nokia Lumia products that operate on the Windows Phone 7 operating system as a result of increasing availability of Nokia Lumia products with the new Windows Phone 8 operating system; 4) the expected continuing decline of sales of Symbian devices and the significantly diminishing viability of the Symbian smartphone platform; 5) our ability to produce attractive and competitive devices in our Mobile Phones business unit including feature phones and devices with more smartphone-like features such as full touch devices, in a timely and cost efficient manner with differentiated hardware, software, localized services and applications; 6) our ability to effectively and timely implement planned changes to our operational structure, including the planned restructuring measures, and to successfully complete the planned investments, acquisitions and divestments in order to improve our operating model and achieve targeted efficiencies and reductions in operating expenses as well as our ability to accurately estimate the related restructuring charges and restructuring related cash outflows; 7) our future sales performance, among other factors, may require us to recognize allowances related to excess component inventory, future purchase commitments and inventory write-offs in our Devices & Services business; 8) our ability to realize a return on our investment in next generation devices, platforms and user experiences; 9) the intensity of competition in the various markets where we do business and our ability to maintain or improve our market position or respond successfully to changes in the competitive environment; 10) our ability to retain, motivate, develop and recruit appropriately skilled employees; 11) the success of our Location & Commerce strategy, including our ability to establish a successful location-based platform, extend our location-based services across devices and operating systems, provide support for our Devices & Services business and create new sources of revenue from our location-based services and commerce assets; 12) our actual performance in the short-term and long-term could be materially different from our forecasts, which could impact future estimates of recoverable value of our reporting units and may result in impairment charges; 13) our success in collaboration and partnering arrangements with third parties, including Microsoft; 14) our ability to increase our speed of innovation, product development and execution to bring new innovative and competitive mobile products and location-based or other services to the market in a timely manner; 15) our dependence on the development of the mobile and communications industry, including location-based and other services industries, in numerous diverse markets, as well as on general economic conditions globally and regionally; 16) our ability to protect numerous patented standardized or proprietary technologies from third-party infringement or actions to invalidate the intellectual property rights of these technologies and our ability to maintain the existing sources of intellectual property related income or establish new such sources; 17) our ability to maintain and leverage our traditional strengths in the mobile product market if we are unable to retain the loyalty of our mobile operator and distributor customers and consumers as a result of the implementation of our strategies or other factors; 18) the success, financial condition and performance of our suppliers, collaboration partners and customers; 19) our ability to manage efficiently our manufacturing and logistics, as well as to ensure the quality, safety, security and timely delivery of our products and services; 20) our ability to source sufficient amounts of fully functional quality components, sub-assemblies, software and services on a timely basis without interruption and on favorable terms, particularly as we ramp our new Lumia smartphone devices; 21) our ability to manage our inventory and timely adapt our supply to meet changing demands for our products, particularly as we ramp our new Lumia smartphone devices; 22) any actual or even alleged defects or other quality, safety and security issues in our products; 23) the impact of a cybersecurity breach or other factors leading to any actual or alleged loss, improper disclosure or leakage of any personal or consumer data collected by us or our partners or subcontractors, made available to us or stored in or through our products; 24) our ability to successfully manage the pricing of our products and costs related to our products and operations; 25) exchange rate fluctuations, including, in particular, fluctuations between the euro, which is our reporting currency, and the US dollar, the Japanese yen and the Chinese yuan, as well as certain other currencies; 26) our ability to protect the technologies, which we or others develop or that we license, from claims that we have infringed third parties' intellectual property rights, as well as our unrestricted use on commercially acceptable terms of certain technologies in our products and services; 27) the impact of economic, political, regulatory or other developments on our sales, manufacturing facilities and assets located in emerging market countries; 28) the impact of changes in government policies, trade policies, laws or regulations where our assets are located and where we do business; 29) the potential complex tax issues and obligations we may incur to pay additional taxes in the various jurisdictions in which we do business and our actual or anticipated performance, among other factors, could result in allowances related to deferred tax assets, 30) any disruption to information technology systems and networks that our operations rely on, which may be for instance caused by our inability to successfully and smoothly implement our plans to streamline our IT organization including the transfer of some activities and employees to strategic partners; 31) unfavorable outcome of litigations and regulatory proceedings; 32) allegations of possible health risks from electromagnetic fields generated by base stations and mobile products and lawsuits related to them, regardless of merit; 33) Nokia Siemens Networks ability to implement its new strategy and restructuring plan effectively and in a timely manner to improve its overall competitiveness and profitability; 34) Nokia Siemens Networks' success in the mobile broadband and services market and Nokia Siemens Networks' ability to effectively and profitably adapt its business and operations in a timely manner to the increasingly diverse service needs of its customers; 35) Nokia Siemens Networks' ability to maintain or improve its market position or respond successfully to changes in the competitive environment; 36) Nokia Siemens Networks' liquidity and its ability to meet its working capital requirements; 37) Nokia Siemens Networks' ability to timely introduce new competitive products, services, upgrades and technologies; 38) Nokia Siemens Networks' ability to execute successfully its strategy for the acquired Motorola Solutions wireless network infrastructure assets; 39) developments under large, multi-year contracts or in relation to major customers in the networks infrastructure and related services business; 40) the management of our customer financing exposure, particularly in the networks infrastructure and related services business; 41) whether ongoing or any additional governmental investigations into alleged violations of law by some former employees of Siemens may involve and affect the carrier-related assets and employees transferred by Siemens to Nokia Siemens Networks; and 42) any impairment of Nokia Siemens Networks customer relationships resulting from ongoing or any additional governmental investigations involving the Siemens carrier-related operations transferred to Nokia Siemens Networks, as well as the risk factors specified on pages 13-47 of Nokia's annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2011 under Item 3D. "Risk Factors." Other unknown or unpredictable factors or underlying assumptions subsequently proving to be incorrect could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Nokia does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent legally required.

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

The Internet of Things is tied together with a thin strand that is known as time. Coincidentally, at the core of nearly all data analytics is a timestamp. When working with time series data there are a few core principles that everyone should consider, especially across datasets where time is the common boundary. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Scott, Director of Enterprise Strategy & Architecture at MapR Technologies, discussed single-value, geo-spatial, and log time series data. By focusing on enterprise applications and the data center, he will use OpenTSDB as an example t...

Enthusiasm for the Internet of Things has reached an all-time high. In 2013 alone, venture capitalists spent more than $1 billion dollars investing in the IoT space. With "smart" appliances and devices, IoT covers wearable smart devices, cloud services to hardware companies. Nest, a Google company, detects temperatures inside homes and automatically adjusts it by tracking its user's habit. These technologies are quickly developing and with it come challenges such as bridging infrastructure gaps, abiding by privacy concerns and making the concept a reality. These challenges can't be addressed w...

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things. The difference ...

11 edibles that boost brain function, enhance memory, and improve concentration
The school day may be over, but kids can't afford "brain drain" now. To re-charge them for their after-school activities and homework, encourage them to drink water and snack on cereal. Here's why.
Water Most parents would be amazed at how little water kids take in at school. "Water is an overlooked food," says Naomi Neufeld, MD, a pediatric endocrinologist and director of the KidShape antiobesity program, "and kids often run around in a state of relative dehydration."
Dehydration, even a very mild case, makes kids listless, lethargic, and irritable—not exactly the best frame of mind for memorizing the Bill of Rights. What's more, Neufeld says, "too little water creates false hunger in children, so they make poor food choices." Offer water at every meal, especially after an active day.
Cereal Even if he had a bowl for breakfast, fortified whole grain cereals are a snack that's rich in folate, complex carbs, and easy-to-access protein. Fortified cereals are also a great source of vitamin B12, linked to how well we remember things, reports the National Institutes of Health. Instead of serving it plain, try mixing some whole grain cereal with raisins and peanuts.
Rushed as dinner can be for most families, it's also critical for "smart" eating. It's usually the only meal where children get to see adults eating—and enjoying—a variety of different brain foods. Nutritionists have discovered that what parents say to and offer kids make little difference; they will eat primarily what you eat.
You can help that process along by involving kids in supper choices whenever possible, says Johnson: "Should we have salmon or chicken? Green beans or peas?" That said, here are foods to include regularly at the dinner table.
