The 119th Urs of Hazarath Kale Mastan Shavalia Baba at Mastan Dargah began on a festive note here late on Sunday night.
The dargah was decorated with festoons and huge lights. Devotees, cutting across religious lines, took part in the festivities.
The Grand Trunk road was a beehive of activity with huge pandals erected for the sake of pilgrims who throng from far and wide.
The festivities began with decorations by applying 'Chandini' (sandal) and later special purification was done to the Baba's mausoleum.
Managing trustee of the dargah Raavi Ramamohana Rao led the huge procession by carrying a bowl of sandal.
The sandal was applied to the mausoleum of the Baba and later taken in a colourful procession led by 'Chandal' horse.
The new 'chaddars' were also laid on the mausoleum. On Monday, the sandal paste was distributed among the devotees and 'deeparadhana' performed in the evening.
On Tuesday, there would be recital of Quran followed by distribution of 'prasadam'. Feeding of fakirs would be organised on Wednesday. The Baba's throne would be put back in its place on Thursday.

In Flanders Fields

- About the Book
Early on Christmas morning the guns stop firing. A deathly silence creeps over the pitted and ruined landscape. A young soldier peers through a periscope over the top of the trench. Way out in no-man's-land, he sees a small red shape moving on the barbed wire. A brightly coloured robin is trapped. One wing is flapping helplessly.
An eloquent counterpoint to the senselessness and inhumanity of war, In Flanders Fields tells the story of a young homesick World War I soldier, who risks his life to cross the no-man's land and rescue a robin caught in the barbed wire that separates the opposing forces, dug into their trenches. This moving picture book is a plea for compassion.

Easy but different salad ingredients?
- HaagenDazs Jan 27, 2009 12:29 PM
Does anyone have any favorite salad ingredients they like to put in/on salads to bulk them up? Something easy for quick weeknight meals? I'm looking for things that are super easy to prep and widely available, but maybe not as common as a cucumber or tomato. Things like hearts of palm come to mind off the top of my head.
Any suggestions?
I'm not sure if this is the kind of thing you are looking for ... but it's DH's favorite salad. Toss greens (bitter-ish greens like frise, arugula, etc. work best) with a dressing made of 1 TBS cider vinegar, 1 TBS rice vinegar, 2 tsp honey, 2 TBS olive oil (plus minced shallots optional). On top, put pears prepared by -- peeling/coring/slicing 3 bosc pears, cooking them in 1 1/2 TBS butter and 1 TBS brown sugar for about 5 minutes. Put pears on top of dressed greens, sprinkle with gorgonzola crumbled up and sprinkle with toasted walnuts.
I'm not sure it really qualifies as "bulking up" but the cheese and nuts make it a bit more substantial. The sweetness of the fruit plus the sharpness of the greens makes for a different type of salad, we think.
re: LNG212
Yeah, that's the kind of thing. I'm just looking for something to add substance instead of just sticking with the normal refrigerated, "cafeteria style" salad one might envision if they thought of a bland salad.
We're doing a large salad for dinner tonight, that's why I was asking. Thanks!
re: LNG212
That sounds wonderful. I think I'll try it this week!
re: jzerocsk
sunchokes aka jerusalem artichoke are great and crisp and very health, just peel and dice or slice. I think that they have a specific season as I don't see them all the time. I also like jicama root, but don't use it as often as the sunchoke, I think b/c they are quite large. Jicama is easy to get at any supermarket, sunchokes I am not so sure of. i pick mine up at an organic store.
to add bulk I add things like raw pepitas, hulled raw sunflower seeds or whole hemp seeds, flax seeds or flax meal are good as well.
I also add sprouted beans. I can purchase a mix of sprouted beans with garbanzo, lentil, mung, pea, they are delicious and add a really nice crunch to a salad they are also very filling.
If I am having a salad as a meal I like to add a grain to it such as brown rice or quinoa.
I love salads and eat them almost every day, often 2x/day.
re: cleopatra999
i love sunchokes, but they can be tricky for a lot of people when eaten raw due to the high inulin content, which can sometimes lead to gastric distress.
re: goodhealthgourmet
good to know....thanks. I have been trying to track that lately...perhaps this is my culprit!
re: goodhealthgourmet
Ah yes, I once ate a substantial serving of sunchoke gratin, and was not so happy afterward. TMI? Maybe. But they are indeed dangerous when cooked, as well!
I love salads and make them different all the time, inspired by what I have or what I see in the store: corn, beans, red cabbage, zuchinni, fennel, leeks, artichoke hearts, edamame, Love Love love hearts of palm wrapped in prochutto then sliced into discs, red onion, radishes, peppers (red, orange, yellow), broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, celery - love the crunch of celery. Sometimes nuts, cheeses and herbs (basil, calantro, dill). sometimes meats or shellfish, roasted red pepper, olives, pickles cut up. OMG, I could go on - summer squash, ohhhh mushrooms of course. My salads are never the same and people do comment on my salads! Sometimes simple with only three or 4 ingrediants, sometimes a lot more - love color so that sometimes drives me. I always make more then I expect because I do get carried away. Same with the dressings, I like to play with ingrediants for the dressing.
HaagenDazs, maybe a chef salad? Add slices of viriginia ham, white turkey, swiss cheese, avacado, black olives, boiled egg....quickly becomes a cobb salad...but these inclusions will bulk up & satisfy the salad to more of an entree.
re: Toronto Fastfoodie
Oh Toronto Ff, I'm all over that combo this week. Great idea.
re: Toronto Fastfoodie
That sounds similar to what I posted above. But it's different enough too. I'll have to give it a try and see if DH likes that combination as well. Always good to have variation.
i can't remember the last time i've ever made a salad with lettuce!
cucumber + tomato, etc... for greek salad
i usually use jicama, kohlrabi or fennel. sometimes whatever is lying around... chickpeas. broccoli. leek. leftover roasted veg. apples, oranges, grapefruit, pears, kiwi, lychee, pomegranate. tofu. hearts of palm. bamboo shoots. water chestnuts. lotus root. daikon. beets.
i live on salads, since i sit too many hours in my studio and get up only for coffee.
* Roast root vegetables (beets, winter squash, parsnips, carrot, potato)
* marinated tempeh (simmer in soysauce and ginger)
* canned beans (black go well with pumpkin seeds and cilantro)
* hard boiled or poached egg
* baguette sliced up, rubbed with garlic and olive oil, and toasted, for big croutons
* I also like to make warm spinach salads by pouring hot oil over them. Makes them seem meatier for some reason.
re: lessleyellen
I like toasted pumpkin seeds (in a pumpkin oil vinaigrette, if you want). I often have duck confit (legs, gizzards) on hand, and a bit of warmed confit (or sauted gizzards) is always welcome. I also love dried cherries (Trader Joe's are the best, hands-down, and cheap as chips!). Oh, I will often cook up some tiny French lentils in some stock with a bay leaf, some thyme, whatever really--cook them until just done--not mushy. Cool, and toss with your favourite salad--they add a nice meatiness/heartiness that I like.
re: kobetobiko
forgot about one: chestnuts.
I don't think anyone's mentioned corn yet.
Raisins, garbonzos, sunflower seeds, olives, roasted beets, peeled brocolli stems, spiced candies pecans, dried cranberries, hardboiled eggs, sprouts, peas, pea pods, black beans, pears (even canned, don't hate...), dry roasted soy beans, bacon (of course!), parmesan crisps, smoked or in the pouch salmon...mmm salads.
daikon (shredded or julienned)
Asian glass noodles
caramelized onions
re: dkenworthy
i don't know if they still have it, but i once picked up a bagged mix of roasted pepitas, slivered almonds & pine nuts at TJ's - it was fantastic on salad.
most of the things i include in my salads have already been mentioned, so i'll just add a couple more:
- sliced or diced roasted beets
- sliced pepperoncini (aka banana peppers)
and i always use several types of greens, and mix shredded red cabbage, zucchini & carrots into them.
Basically, any fruits, any cheese, and any nuts can go into a salad. Any fruit and any nut can go together (though some go better, of course...) It's the cheese that takes some thinking.
Beets, even just straight from the can (yes, I know) or Melissa's has vacuum-packed baby beets, but they're hard to find. Chickpeas. Toasted nuts.
Arugula with julienned sundried tomatoes, toasted pine nuts, and shaved parmigiano or pecorino in a lemon vinaigrette. This is good with grilled chicken as well.
In Winter, I like to add very thinly sliced Red Anjou or Fiorelli Pears and very thinly sliced Fennel to Mixed Greens with frisee.
I make a Meyer Lemon and Honey Vinaigrette with EVOO and Hazelnut Oil in the bottom of my wooden salad bown. I Place the Pears and Fennel in the Vinaigrette and mix.. I place the greens on top, and toss right before serving, topping with Toasted crushed Hazelnuts..
re: relizabeth
Sounds awesome!
our default salad these days includes (in addition to lettuces/arugula) thinly sliced fennel, lightly roasted nuts (walnuts, pecans or pinenuts), some kind of chicory (belgian endive, radicchio, frisee etc), and a little onion or shallot along with the olive oil and vinegar. We mix up the vinegars., but Im particularly fond of some sweet-ish spanish vinegars these days.
HB eggs are a great add to salad - work well with traditional american mix-ins like shredded carrots, onion and celery - or with bacon of course, and a viniagrette.
re: jen kalb
These Spanish vinegars - are they sherry vinegars, or something else? Thanks.
I also like citrus with fennel and nuts.
re: MMRuth
actually no - I dont really care for sherry vinegar in salad. the vinegars I have most liked recently have been a little sweet.
Montegrato makes some very expensive but good sweet vinegars - from Pedro Ximenez and Fino wines. this is one product worth paying DeSpana's prices for.
Right now I am using a sharper but still very flavorful UNIQ Moscatel Vinegar, also from Spain.
Other vinegars and similar products we enjoy are saba (sometimes with a little lemon), some balsamic condiment (similar to the tradizionale) that I brought back from Italy this year - much smoother and more flavorful than commercial balsamic, and a white balsamic infused with pear or fig, also a little sweet and fruity, that is sold by Alessio.
I find that mixing up the oils and vinegars creates variety in our salads without actually making dressings or varying the ingredients much.
roasting the nuts a bit is important. to bring out their flavor - frying them a bit in oil also is good - it also adds flavor to the oil.
I tried the trader joes pumpkin seed/almond/pine nut mix - I think its texture (the almonds) is too crude, and I really dont care for the pumpkin seeds in my salad.
re: jen kalb
Thank you. I have a lot of Saba - hadn't thought to try it in salads and will.
re: MMRuth
just a little goes a long way.
re: MMRuth
I put saba on salads too. I especially like it when I add roasted delicata squash slices to the salad. The saba goes quite well with the delicata flavor.
From our dear old friend Julia Child --
one Tb minced shallot
2 tsp dijon or other good mustard
2 Tb lemon juice
salt & pepper
mix - then whisk in 1/2 c. olive oil
and my daily standard that I picked up somewhere years ago:
1/4 c. balsamic
3 T lemon juice (living in Mexico it is actually lime juice for me)
one minced clove garlic
dash cayenne
s & p
then whisk in 1/2 c olive oil
I keep this mixed up in a jar at all times - sometimes throw in a little mustard.
i keep two or three kinds of nuts and seeds - walnuts, sunflower seeds, almonds
also dried fruits especially figs, apricots, peaches, raisons, cranberries
cheeses, goat cheese,parmigiano, feta, buffalo mozzarella,
fresh fruit - berries, apples, oranges, mandarins, pears
beans- chick peas, white kidney beans.
pickled veg - artichokes, roasted red peppers, olives, asparagus, sundried tomatoes, beets.
crispy toppings ie. fried onions (little india grocery), spicy indian channa noodles,
add rice noodles, couscous, grains, bhulgur, barley as base with salads,
ie, fine rice noodles, baby spinach, basil, mint w shrimp, julien carrots, red pepper and peanuts w ginger soy dressing
i buy deli roast chicken at SLM, canned salmon, tuna (see spiced brands) and frozen shrimp, deli roast beef ( rare sliced beef, lots of baby spinache, bit of arugula, top with fried onions, blue cheese or parmegiano with garlic dressing, a fave!).
eggs, boiled, sliced or grated, poached ie. on baguette crouton on ceasar salad w bacon
IMHO, except for the fruit of course, i can keep a lot of this on hand and am ready to toss a big salad any time

Toronto Maple Leaf News and Rumors
Who should be kept, and why
The talk of the town in Toronto is who should be moved on or prior to March 4th. Any player who has worn a blue and white jersey with any spec of trade value has been mentioned. So, I'd like to comment on players who I believe should not be traded.
I have decided to post some of my thoughts on what the leafs should do to better there future…
Revised Rebuilding Plan
Disclaimer: This article contradicts many things I have recently posted and simply being put out for the purposes of speculation. I do not demand that the approach I'll be suggesting need to be pursued or that it is the best solution.
Building the Leafs Back to a Strong Team
When Cliff Fletcher took over for the Toronto Maple Leafs General Manager position in late January of last year, he made one thing clear. That this team was going to be a young team and its primary focus is to grow as a team and build for future success, not short term gain. The rebuilding process started when the Leafs shipped out Hall Gill, Chad Kilger and Wade Belak. In exchange for these players, the Leafs got a 2nd, a 3rd and two fifth round draft picks. In May with no permanent General Manger found, Fletcher fired head coach Paul Maurice, and hired former San Jose coach Ron Wilson, who vowed to make the Leafs a much better team in the long run Then in June at the NHL entry draft Cliff Fletcher traded up to select standout CHL defenseman Luke Schenn 5th overall. Shortly after the Leafs bought out the contracts of both veterans Darcy Tucker and Andrew Raycroft. On July 1 Fletcher signed forward Niklas Hagman to a 4 year 12 million dollar deal, little known Jeff Finger to a 4 year 14 million dollar deal and fan favourite Curtis Joseph to a 1 year 750,000 deal. As well Fletcher acquired forward Ryan Holwegg from the New York Rangers, in exchange for a 5th round draft selection and as well acquired Mikhail Grabovski from Montreal in exchange for a 2nd round pick and prospect, Greg Patryn, also the Leafs signed defenseman Jonas Frogren out of Sweden to a 2 year deal. The Leafs also remained in the Mats Sundin sweepstakes by offering him a 1-year contract worth 7 million dollars.
Leafs 08-09 Timeline
Just for fun, starting now predicting the Leafs every move until this time next year.
Sept. 1 2008- Toronto trades defencemen Bryan McCabe and Alexei Ponicarovsky to the Florida Panthers for Mike Van Ryn and David Booth.
-The Leafs pull the deal everyone expected when it comes to Van Ryn and McCabe but the Poni and Booth comes to the surprise of everyone.
Are We Bad Enough?
Every one says the leafs are so bad, and as a leafs fan, it does get tiring. But im sure these kinda articles and attention to the leafs also gets annoying to none leafs fans, as it does to me as well. But are the leafs really as bad off as everyone says? I don't think that they are.
Toronto Maple Leafs Prospect Report
A list of prospects and what I feel there potential is in the NHL. (Tlusty and Stralman will be included to make things more interesting)
A Detailed Look at the 2008-2009 Toronto Maple Leafs Teams
the following is an overview of the 2008-2009 leafs squad and how it should compete barring any trades or other transactions made
Leafs sign D Jonas Frogren; Other Leaf rumors
Morrison, Jagr probably not on Leafs radar
Derek Harmsworth of The Bleacher Report says the Maple Leafs have apparently agreed to terms with Swedish defenseman Jonas Frogren.
Additionally Frogren's Swedish team Farjestad BK have posted an article on their website saying that Frogren has signed with the Leafs, and is following in the footsteps of Hall of Famer Borje Salming.
Leafs paying the price for mediocrity
Some teams made big splashes on July 1st, while others made tweaks, and some decided to stand pat. The Maple Leafs, however, in a seven hour period summed up everything that is wrong with their organization.

How to Wear Backpacks WellPosted by Admin on August 17, 2010
Watching students carrying their backpacks on a college campus can be a chiropractor's nightmare, for much damage is in process to young backs that will show up years later in multiple back problems. "A lot of people are wearing their backpacks too heavy, which is harming their backs and their health," said Allison Gross, a chiropractor at the EnCana Wellness Center at Mount Royal College in Calgary, Alberta.

Delete everything out of your profile. Take down your pictures, delete you friends from your friends list, erase comments you've left for people and leave any networks or groups you have joined. Be sure to save your profile changes so they take effect and your Facebook page is virtually empty.
How to Delete a Facebook Account Permanently
Facebook makes it easy for users to deactivate their accounts, but that doesn't get rid of all of the user's personal information. Deactivated accounts are still saved on Facebook's servers, which includes, photos, friend lists and other personal information. If you want to truly leave Facebook to never go back again, you'll need your account deleted permanently. Follow these steps to have every trace of your Facebook existence wiped clean from the social network site.
Send an email to email@example.com and ask that they permanently delete your account. Be sure you give your email address and put "Delete my account" in the subject line. Be clear that you want your account permanently deleted and not just deactivated.
Wait to get an email response from Facebook confirming that your account has been permanently deleted. This should take a few days.
If you don't hear back from Facebook within a week, email them again. Try emailing the same address you emailed in Step 2 again, as well as email@example.com and firstname.lastname@example.com.
Attempt to log in to your account once you get an email from Facebook. If you're unable to log in and don't get a message asking you to reactivate your account, your Facebook account has been permanently deleted.

Photos: BlackBerrys through the ages
Summary: Updated: Take a tour of BlackBerry's most iconic handsets, from 2000's mobile connectivity-less 957 to the latest crop of BlackBerry 10 devices.

BlackBerry Style
The clamshell form factor resurfaced in 2010 with the launch of the BlackBerry Style — the first flip-phone to have a full Qwerty keyboard.
The smartphone runs the BlackBerry 6 OS but has no touchscreen onboard. Instead, there's a two-inch external display — shown above — where users can check information such as when a new text message has arrived.

BlackBerry Bold 9900
The Bold resurfaced again in 2011 and this time, it featured short-range wireless NFC technology — typically used for contactless ticketing and payments.
The Bold 9900 also came with a capacitive touchscreen and ran the latest version of RIM's operating system, BlackBerry OS 7, which includes an HTML5-friendly browser. There's also a five-megapixel camera onboard.

BlackBerry PlayBook
Announced in 2010 but reaching these shores in 2011 was perhaps RIM's most radical departure yet: the PlayBook.
The tablet, an attempt to capitalise on the wave of slate love initiated by Apple, has a seven-inch display, is 1cm thick and has both front and rear cameras.
The PlayBook was a lonely soul — for 3G connectivity, it had to be tethered to a BlackBerry smartphone using a feature called BlackBerry Bridge, which connected the smartphone and tablet over a secure Bluetooth link.

Watch: Cat Power Hilariously Skewers Her Reputation in Funny or Die Sketch
By Jenn Pelly on December 12, 2012 at 9:52 a.m. EST
Cat Power's reputation for on-stage meltdowns gets skewered in an incredible new Funny or Die skit, written and directed by Alex Fernie. In the video, she plays her artistically sensitive self, performing for a class of second-grade children.
Music Tapes' Julian Koster Sold His Banjo From In the Aeroplane Over the Sea to Fund Circus Tent Tour
By Jenn Pelly on August 21, 2012 at 3:51 p.m. EDT
What you see above is the banjo played by Julian Koster, of Elephant 6 band the Music Tapes, on Neutral Milk Hotel's In the Aeroplane Over the Sea. And it could be yours for $3,000, via a Kickstarter page launched by the Music Tapes to fund an ambitious and seemingly magical fall touring endeavor. (Thanks Scott Steinhardt for the tip.) UPDATE: The banjo has been sold.

Video: LCD Soundsystem Become Legos

The internet has done it again. A minor genius with too much time on his hands named Michael J. Green has done a shot-for-shot remake of LCD Soundsystem's classic video for "All My Friends", with animated legos standing in for James Murphy and friends.
It. Is. Amazing.
And even in a context as ridiculous as this, the song still raises goosebumps. Watch it below, via Vulture.
Listen: The Roots and "Weird Al" Cover Madvillain
By Tom Breihan on June 20, 2011 at 5:00 p.m. EDT
The Roots drummer and bandleader ?uestlove recently notched 1.6 million Twitter followers. To celebrate, the Roots recorded an instrumental cover of the Madvillain classic "Accordion". And since there aren't any accordion players in the Roots, they recruited arguably the most famous accordion player on the face of the earth: comedy-rock kingpin "Weird Al" Yankovic.
?uestlove posted the result on his Twitter, and you can listen to it here. The best part: The band members yelling all throughout that they can't believe this is happening. We can't either.
Yup, Washed Out's Album Cover Was in Cosmo

As it turns out, that image also appeared in last month's issue of Cosmopolitan magazine, accompanying an article titled "Is This the Most Satisfying Sex Position?".

More Flaming Lips Insanity: Stage Musical, Life-Size Gummi Wayne Coyne, Other Stuff

If you're a Flaming Lips obsessive, the band is forcing you to work overtime in 2011. Thus far this year, they've already released a collaborative EP with Neon Indian that's only been made available at a few select record stores, as well as a piece that only plays when you've got a bunch of mobile phones ganged up together. They're also producing gummy skulls with USB drives embedded within. And now, frontman Wayne Coyne tells Billboard that the band has a bunch of other batshit projects in the works, including the long-in-the-works Yoshimi stage musical.
Video: Five-Year-Old Daniel Rossen of Grizzly Bear/Department of Eagles Impersonates Elvis

Well, this is awfully cute. Some kind soul has unearthed two ancient videos of Daniel Rossen, now a member of Grizzly Bear and Department of Eagles, doing Elvis impersonations when he was five. (Via Stereogum.) Video of any five-year-old doing Elvis impersonations is obviously cute, but somehow the knowledge that this guy is now an indie star puts it over the top.
Michael Cera Joins Mister Heavenly

Just yesterday, we reported that Mister Heavenly-- the supergroup featuring Man Man's Honus Honus, Islands' Nick Thorburn, and Modest Mouse's Joe Plummer-- had signed to Sub Pop and that they were gearing up for a tour with Passion Pit. Well, it turns out that the group may be even more super than we originally thought.
Last night, Mister Heavenly played their first show ever, at Seattle's Moore Theater. The Stranger reports that they had another member in their ranks: Honest-to-god movie star Michael Cera, playing bass.
Yo La Tengo Plan Insane Concept Tour

When indie O.G.s Yo La Tengo hit the road early next year, they're not going to play any standard-issue greatest-hits-plus-new-shit sets. Instead, they're trying out an appealingly goofy show concept, one that'll probably lead them to stuff that they hardly ever play. Or show off their acting skills, if you're lucky.

Don't Sweat It
Although Ostroff was stressed out about having the inevitable convo with her former stylist, Carreon reminds us that variety is the spice of life and change is sometimes inevitable. "Be straightforward in a friendly, nice way especially if you've been going to the stylist for a long time." In fact, break-ups happen all the time and they're destined to occur when there are a variety of salons and countless options out there. "It happens to all of us," he says.
Let's face it: the great hairdresser break-up can be a sensitive topic. It was for Elaine Spitz of the Boston area since her stylist was a family member of a close friend. "Tender loving care was required on this one," she says. Since her job situation changed, it wasn't possible for Spitz to continue with the 7:30 a.m. time slot that was allotted for her every fourth Thursday of the month. Her solution? "I thanked 'Jane' for her many years of service and friendship, nothing that I knew she would understand. It worked out well and when I see her in a social setting we are friendly."
Blame It On the Economy
As you're having the conversation and perhaps finding a hard time mustering up the words, "This is a difficult conversation to have but I'm moving on," you may want to do what Karin Pellmann did of New York City: she factored the dollar sign into the equation. "My days of $300 cut and colors were over for me last summer but it took a crumbling job market to force my mouth to open," she admits. While she's back on her feet after losing her job, at the time she told him it just wasn't feasible to continue seeing him until she could get her bearings again.
Give a Warning Period
Not quite ready to cut ties with your hairdresser but definitely not pleased on the new coif either? It may be time to communicate with them and let them know they'll only get one more chance at styling your 'do. "In any relationship, do what you can to try to make it work before you exit stage left," says Carreon. Speyer adds, "Allow them to self-correct." For instance, if you're trying to grow your hair out and you're consistently getting a shorter cut, give them a warning and tell them. "If you can't do that, I'll need to go to someone else next time."

Future of Nursing Initiative
Using molecular biology, the new Xpert EV test can help distinguish viral and bacterial meningitis within 21-2 hours, compared with a possible 7-day wait for standard diagnostic testing. The test detects infection in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) caused by the Enterovirus class of viruses, which is responsible for about 90% of all viral meningitis cases. A CSF sample is put into a single-use cartridge and loaded into a device that conducts all necessary lab procedures.
Studies in six facilities involving 255 patient samples confirmed a high rate of accuracy. Ninety-six percent of patients who tested positive for viral meningitis with the Xpert EV test did indeed have viral meningitis; 97% of those testing negative didn't have viral meningitis.
Currently, many patients with viral meningitis receive antibiotics because care providers can't take the chance that the patient has bacterial meningitis, which can be rapidly fatal. The new test should help providers manage patients correctly without unneeded antibiotics. For more information, visit the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Web site at http://www.fda.gov and search for Xpert EV.

Rainbows are not only very jolly things, but this summer they are de rigueur on the catwalk, with everyone from Chanel to Prada taking a palette of primary colours as their emblem. But they are not just on trend on planet fashion, in the baking world they are everywhere too, with hundreds of blogs dedicated to creating the big bright cakes. It's the perfect thing for a birthday, a bake sale - or simply to bring in and impress your office colleagues. Here, in the last of our Cake O'Clock series, Lady Bunny of bakery Bunny Little has created her own very flamboyant and fabulous version of a Rainbow Cake, which also celebrates the recent Pride in London in style. Enjoy!
Note: For super-vibrant colours many experts recommend you choose American food colouring such as Sugarflair or Americolour.
Ingredients for the Rainbow Cake:
1000g butter softened
1000g caster sugar
10 eggs
2tspns vanilla extract
1000g self-raising flour
Food colouring; red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet (enough to colour the mixture to your liking)
Ingredients for the Chocolate Icing:
500g butter soft
500g icing sugar
500g dark (at least 70% cocoa) chocolate melted
Cocoa powder to taste (Estimate 50g)
For the Rainbow Cake:
1. Cream together the soft butter and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy
2. Slowly add the eggs, whisking well between each one
3. Add the vanilla extract and mix well
4. Fold the flour into the mixture
5. Divide the mix into 7 bowls and add a different colouring to each - one a colour from the rainbow
6. Pour each mix into an 8" lined and greased baking tin and cook at 180*C for 30mins, or until a skewer comes out clean
7. Set aside and allow to cool in the tins
For the Chocolate Icing:
1. Whisk together the soft butter and icing sugar until light and fluffy
2. Pour in the melted chocolate and whisk again
3. Add cocoa powder until the desired level of chocolateyness is reached.
To Assemble:
1. Working from the bottom up place the violet sponge onto a plate and top with a little chocolate icing, then place the indigo sponge on top and repeat up through the rainbow.
2. Place the stack of sponges in the fridge for half an hour to firm up.
3. When the cake is completely chilled remove from the fridge and cover completely with the chocolate icing.
4. Sprinkle the iced cake with heart shapes and your Rainbow Pride cake is ready to join the party providing layers of scrumptious fun for all your friends!
Find Bunny Little at 9 Campdale Road, Tufnell Park, London N7 0EA. Opening times: Monday to Saturday 7:30am-5:30pm, Sunday 8am-5:30pm. They take orders and deliver inside London.

Thanks Kifaru! I could have used the sleeping bag on my elk hunt this year. Great gear, I would love to try this bag out!
That's a great buck! Congrats.
I live in 461. It's about 99% private. I wouldn't suggest this unit.
Congratulations on your success. I'm glad you found your bull and filled your freezer!
Hopefully next year you'll post a picture with him sitting in front of you. Good luck getting him next year!
Thanks Hilleberg! You make great products. I would use this tent on my archery elk hunt next year.

I'll be out there with five of my friends. Good luck and send me a picture when you get one.
Congrats guys! Getting a buck with a bow is quite a challenge. I applaud you both.
There are tons of elk and tons of hunters. There are places you can find that you'll have to yourself, you'll have to put a good bit of effort into it.
Happy Anniversary!
That's a great bull! Congrats on a great hunt!!
I just wanted to thank all who responded to me when I was researching my early rifle deer hunt this year. This is the buck I took on the last day of the hunt. What an adventure!...
Colorado Early Rifle
I can't wait for next Saturday. I get to take my rifle into the high country in search of mr. Muley. Good luck to all!
Nice photography. Hope you enjoyed yourself.
I wear my vest over my merino wool during archery season. It's the Kuiu guide vest and I highly recommend it.
It is a nice drive. It'll take you 4.5 to 5 hrs. to get to the Poconos.

I have developed an android application whose first version is already available on Google play.
Now my problem is, when I installed first version of my app on any android device (Samsung galaxy SII, LG Optimus), it works fine for me.
I have created shortcut of my app on home screen and have moved my app from phone memory to SDCard.
Then I have install new version of the same app on my phone and tried to open it from the shortcut that I have created on home screen.
But app is not opening from that shortcut and giving me an error message that "application is not installed on your device".
Does anybody have any idea why this happening?

Rotary Engine Breakthrough?
The Wankel engine always held out a lot of promise, but never was able to
fully deliver on those promises. It was never very fuel efficient, and the
Exhaust temperatures were very high.

PAUT MOTOR-REVOLUTIONARY ENGINE.wmv
Prototype 2 is performed as an engine with two-sided pistons, positioned
at 90° to each other, in combination with PAUT two-stroke cycles (fig 1).
Such construction provides an engine containing less assembling parts,
having smaller mass to power and overall-dimensions to power ratios, which
are the presumptions for a successful product to be accomplished and for
low cost production/exploitation to be expected. Smaller mass, compared to
the prior art engines, derives from the fact that PAUT engine contains
considerably less assembling parts lacking elements such as: rods,
camshafts, camshaft's driving parts, some valves, large heads.
The very construction of the two-sided piston (fig 3) has more
advantages. Contact area between two-sided piston and cylinder is
considerably larger compared to prior art pistons. Hence, specific
pressures are lower and since the two-sided piston is lubricated under the
pressure, the friction is considerably smaller, the more so as we know that
normal force Fn in the engine center equals zero (fig 2a).
All these results with less wear of the piston and the cylinder. Such a
two-sided piston has considerably smaller mass compared to the prior art
assembly it replaces, consisting of two pistons with their prison-shafts
and two belonging rods, resulting in lessening of linear motion inertial
This construction has still more advantages as compared
to prior art engines such as:
- better controlled cooling of cylinders not being adjoined to each other
- smaller friction inside the engine due to less moving parts
- increasing the capacity of this engine, though considerably, results in
overall dimensions to increase only slightly
- gravity center is posted lower (it is in the engine center)
- better forces configuration in the very engine, while negative forces and
torques nullify each other completely (fig 2b)
- it is possible to dismount pistons and cylinders without entire
dismounting of the engine
- no special tools nor machines were used to produce this engine
- there is less noise due to the design of the two-sided piston
- though the cycle is of two-strokes, the lubrication is performed as if it
was four-strokes
The objections on this construction should be as follows:
- due to the compressed construction , the starter should be mounted on the
gear box, but with some endeavour it is possible to mount it on the very
- the force on the output journal of the crankshaft (fig 2a) is twice
compared to the one at prior art engines, but this problem becomes
negligible with a proper design of the journal and of the operating shaft
- there is no oil sump at this engine, hence an additional oil-pump is
- since it is a two-stroke cycle engine, the engine cylinders are submited
to higher mechanical and thermical load comparing to four-strike cycle

Part 12: 13B Rotary Engine Rebuild - My 76 Mazda RX-5 Cosmo Restoration
Just as I promised last episode, it is finally time to build the engine!
Part 12 of my RX-5 Cosmo restoration covers the entire process of building
the 6 port 13B Mazda rotary engine. While this engine is a hybrid of GSL-SE
RX-7 and Cosmo parts, the process is the same for any rotary from a 12A to
a 13B NA, 13B turbo, 13B-REW or any
other variant of the 13B. This video shows the whole process of the engine
build, starting from measuring the rotors and covering everything else
including clearancing the side seals, assembling the rotors, complete
assembly the short block, setting the eccentric shaft end play and
installing the front cover and everything underneath it. It's probably the
most complete engine build video outside of what you can buy from the
vendors, and as such, is an hour long. After this one, I'm going back to
videos under 20 minutes. But for now, grab a beverage of your choice, sit
back, and enjoy.

A dream project fifteen months in the making.
