I Wanna Love You: new music by Uncle Bad Touch
I'm loving this song, I Wanna Love You. It reminds me of my friends in New Zealand, The Rock n Roll Machine. I found out about Uncle Bad Touch by sitting down at a computer and there was a tab open with some music, so I pressed play and boom!

For a comparison take the $2.50 cost per foot of these stone blocks and compare it with a piece of lumber somewhere around $5-6 for a 10 foot piece. That comes to about $0.50-$0.60 per foot which makes the stone about 5 times more expensive. The big advantage is that it won't ever rot and it looks pretty good!
So far I only have one small portion of the raised bed vegetable garden put together. Even it still needs several more blocks placed to complete the beds. These beds are going to be planted ASAP with some more winter greens. Pak choy sounds good and maybe more spinach.
Ever tried potatoes in the fall? This one was a volunteer in a large nursery pot I was using for a weeding bucket. I'm tempted to wrap the top area where you see the metal stakes in plastic to create a little greenhouse effect. I'm theorizing here but I might just be able to get some potatoes by December. We'll see! The neat thing about potatoes in a pot is that when they are ready all you need to do is dump the pot to get the potatoes.

More arrests are expected in connection with four Buffalo-area men charged in December for operating a crack cocaine ring in the Ogdensburg, city police said Wednesday.
Four city residents were rounded up by city police and the St. Lawrence County Drug Task Force and indicted Tuesday in county court for dealing crack cocaine and prescription narcotic painkillers in the city. Police said three of those charged, including a New York City man arrested outside of Belmont Courts on a parole violation, are connected with the Buffalo-based crack ring.
The arrests are the culmination of an ongoing investigation into crack cocaine trafficking in the city.
Ogdensburg Police Detective Daniel F. Mousaw said Wednesday that more and more of the crack being sold the city originates from metropolitan areas such as Buffalo, New York City, Rochester, and Watertown.
Its primarily brought from other areas and sold here, mostly because the street value is higher up here, he said. Their reason for coming here is the greater monetary gain from their sales.
Mr. Mousaw said a gram of crack cocaine might sell for $100 here and for between $25 and $30 in big cities.
Mr. Mousaw said he couldnt speculate on the exact reason why the price or demand is so high in Ogdensburg, but the recent increase in arrests connected to crack cocaine trafficking indicate the problem is getting worse.
Its a never-ending cycle, he said. Crack cocaine seems to be the most prevalent drug here in Ogdensburg. The majority of narcotic arrests are crack cocaine arrests.
So far seven people have been arrested in the city in connection with the Buffalo drug trafficking ring.
On Tuesday, city police and members of the St. Lawrence County Drug Task Force arrested Kelly J. Ellard-Staton, 37, of 125 Belmont Courts, David A. Hazelton, 37, of 1062 Washington St., Jeffrey W. Brenno, 56, of 212 Linden Lane, and Edwin G. Roach Jr., 53, of 511 Knox St. City police said Ms. Ellard-Staton was charged with four counts each of third-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance and third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance.
Mr. Hazelton and Mr. Roach were both charged with two counts each of third-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance and third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance. Mr. Roach was additionally charged with one count each of fifth-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance and fifth-degree possession, which were the same charges brought against Mr. Brenno.
Ms. Ellard-Staton and Mr. Hazelton are accused of dealing crack cocaine. Mr. Roach and Mr. Brenno were charged for allegedly selling Vicodin, a prescription narcotic painkiller.
Arrested Tuesday evening as part of the police drug sweep and charged with three counts each of third-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance and third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance was Karl G. Dimock, 44, no fixed address.
He is accused of selling crack cocaine.
Also arrested Tuesday on a parole violation was Anthony Q Hester, 24, of Brooklyn. Although Mr. Hester was not specifically targeted in Tuesdays raid, police said he, Ms. Ellard-Staton and Mr. Hazelton are connected to the four Buffalo men arrested in December for allegedly dealing crack cocaine. They are Charles J.H. Caviness, 24; Eldridge Gossom, 25; Andre L. Wilson, 40; and Tige K. Smith Jr., 24. All four were charged with third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance following a raid by city police on an apartment at 325 Belmont Courts. All four have entered not guilty pleas to the charges in county court.
While the ring was based out of Belmont Courts, Mr. Mousaw said that criminal drug use and sales arent specific to one area of the city.
Its all over, he said.
Mr. Mousaw said he expects more arrests in the coming weeks.
County Drug Task Force members involved in Tuesdays raid were from the county Sheriffs Office and Gouverneur and Canton police departments. State police also assisted.

WW: When you began Yeti, did you have a specific ideal in mind for the magazine? Has it shifted over four issues?
Mike McGonigal: When I started Yeti, it had been like five years since I stopped doing my old zine Chemical Imbalance. I spent years as a low-level freelancer, and then I was a music editor at Amazon.com, getting paid well but increasingly being told what to cover and how. So while it seemed marginally insane to have a hobby that kept me hunched over a computer doing something so similar to what I did for a living, Yeti was a real release, getting back to simply writing and editing for the joy of it. I guess Yeti is an all-interest magazine for people with marginal interests.
OK, so tell me about Dan Bejar and his 8-year-old interviewer, Joshua. Is this for real?
That kid is brilliant, and Destroyer really is his favorite band. Joshua, he just naturally looks a lot like a mini-Bejar, it's weird. This is not a case of a child being forced into something against their will, or the equivalent of those parents who give their toddlers mohawks and stick their babies in Ramones shirts. Joshua really does love Destroyer. It's a weird interview, but you know, Joshua's dumbest questions are far more interesting than my own best ones, I hate to say.
You seem to be a big fan of artists (writers, musicians, whatever) interviewing each other. How do you feel that affects the dynamic?
I am just trying to present things that, outside of blogs, there really is no other place for these days, unless you happen to be crazy-famous and people will hang on your every word. Artists written about when there's no new thing to hype from them—but also the way we try to approach subjects. Not looking to break the mold entirely, but to certainly fuck with it a little.

If we were sharing email and tasks as well as events to a CalDAV-only server, then yes, all the stamped information besides the event information could be stuffed into x-properties and/or attachments. But actually, the problem comes when a server is capable of understanding events as one kind of resource, tasks as another kind of resource, and possibly in the longer run email as a third kind of resource. If we had a general server capable of understanding those different types, we wouldn't want to make one type "dominant" (the event) and hide the information for the other kind in extension properties. It may be that stamped items are the one thing we have to share as 2 separate resources to maximize interoperability. E.g. for an Event +Task we would have http://share.o11n.org/users/lisa/work/staff-meeting-event -- this resource has the VEVENT properties and a pointer to the other http://share.o11n.org/users/lisa/work/task-prepare-staff-meeting -- this resource has the VTODO properties and a pointer to the other Another client could reasonably understand both the event and the task and even possibly understand that they were tied together. They would be displayed separately in most clients, at least for the medium term, but they'd both display. I understand that doing a PUT for both these parts of the stamped resource is non-atomic. But there may be other ways of solving that part. 1. Microsoft invented a WebDAV extension to combine multiple requests in a transaction: LOCK with special syntax to start transaction and get transaction ID PUT #1 with Transaction header to do the first resource created in the transaction PUT #2 with same Transaction header UNLOCK with transaction ID to commit the changes 2. The "If" header allows you to create two resources in a way that creating the second one relies on the existence of the first one. The second PUT would look like this PUT /users/lisa/work/task-prepare-staff-meeting HTTP/1.1 If: <http://share.o11n.org/users/lisa/work/staff-meeting-event> ([event-etag]) Content-Type: text/calendar ... There's two options, there may be others. > > in the chandler repository, an item is basically just a list of types > and a flat list of name/value pair style attributes, right? couldn't a > very simple xml format address that in a flexible way? > ... > > supporting a format like this would make cosmo very appealing for > clients other than chandler as well. Yes, but maintaining such formats across releases and as requirements change turns out to be very painful. Internally both Cosmo and Chandler maintain their own representations, but externalizing either one of those is something that's even more difficult to maintain than an interoperable standard format. We want version 0.7 of chandler to interoperate with people running 0.8 and so on. Which version of Chandler becomes the one whose internal format becomes externalized and set in stone, and why that version? Lisa

LAS VEGAS (AP) - One person is dead, a second person is wounded and police are looking for at least one assailant after a fight and a shooting overnight in a neighborhood several blocks east of the Las Vegas Strip.
Police Officer Laura Meltzer says police responding about 10:20 p.m. Tuesday to a report of gunfire found the wounded person in an alley near a convenience store off Sahara Avenue east of Paradise Road.
Officers found the other person in an apartment in a nearby complex off Lynwood Street. He was pronounced dead at Sunrise Hospital & Medical Center.
Meltzer says the victim found in the alley has injuries that aren't believed to be life-threatening.
Investigators think several people were involved in the fighting, but a shooter hasn't immediately been identified.

i love her name!
Wow, very interesting. I love the one with all the animals, and the blue and pink side of the room with the shadow person coming in is a little eery. And the chaos on the wallpaper on the right is really interesting, I love how some of the detail looks almost as if other outside elements were added to the painting afterwards, yet it still blends in together somehow.
i can't stop staring at them. i'm enchanted
That hat at the last one creates very Magritte-ish vibe. Actually they all have a surrealistic feeling. Gorgeous.
textural, lyrical, kinda mamma anderson like…and a few other german (previously east german) school of painting…

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), also called sexually transmitted infections (STIs) or venereal diseases, are infections caused by organisms that can be transmitted from one person to another through sexual activity and intimate contact. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that there are 19 million new STD cases each year in the U.S. Nearly half of cases occur in individuals between the ages of 15 and 24 years.
Since many STDs have few or no symptoms, it is possible for a person to have an infection and to infect others without either of them knowing it. For this reason, screening for these infections is important to ensure early detection and prompt treatment. Tests for STDs are recommended as part of routine health screens for sexually active teens and young adults as well as older adults who may be at risk.
Untreated STDs have significant long-term consequences. They can lead to sterility in both sexes. In women, STDs can result in pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), which increases the risk of infertility and ectopic pregnancies. One STD in particular, HPV, also increases risk of cervical cancer in women. In addition, women who are pregnant or planning a pregnancy should be aware that untreated STDs can cause complications for their newborn. Screening tests for several of these STDs are now part of routine prenatal care.
The most common STDs are listed below with links to pages describing the laboratory tests used to diagnose them:
- Chlamydia. According to the CDC, chlamydia is the most frequently reported bacterial STD in the U.S. Infection is caused by the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis and is often called "the silent epidemic" because infections are common yet many people do not realize that they are infected. It is easily cured with antibiotics but can have serious health consequences if left untreated.
- Gonorrhea. Neisseria gonorrhoeae causes the bacterial STD gonorrhea. It may not cause symptoms, especially in women, but can lead to infertility and other complications if not treated with antibiotics.
- Syphilis. Syphilis is another bacterial infection that can be easily missed. The first symptom is a painless chancre (an ulceration of the skin) at the site of exposure that will disappear on its own, giving the impression that the infection has resolved when, in fact, the infection persists for a period of time without symptoms. Syphilis can be treated with antibiotics. However, if left untreated, the disease can spread throughout the body over the course of many years and cause considerable organ damage.
- Trichomonas. Trichomonas vaginalis is a microscopic parasite that causes trichomoniasis, a common STD, especially among sexually active young women. It can be treated with a single dose of antibiotic medication.
- Human papillomavirus (HPV). One of the most common STDs in the United States, this virus can infect the genital area as well as the mouth and throat. Low-risk types can cause genital warts (condyloma) while high-risk types can cause cervical cancer and other genital cancers. Early detection can reduce the risk of cancer. An FDA-approved vaccine is available for the prevention of HPV.
- Genital herpes. The herpes simplex virus (HSV) causes recurrent, periodic outbreaks of sores in the genital region and remains in an infected person's body for life. However, there are anti-viral therapies available that can shorten the duration of symptoms.
- Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C. These are viral infections that can cause liver inflammation. They can be transmitted through sexual contact although hepatitis C is spread more often through sharing of contaminated needles or other equipment used to inject drugs. Both viruses can cause acute forms of the disease that usually result in a few mild symptoms or no symptoms, but they can also progress to a chronic form that causes severe and/or lasting liver damage. Treatment of chronic hepatitis with antiviral medications is available, but drug therapy may have serious side effects. There is a vaccine to prevent hepatitis B, but currently no vaccine is available for hepatitis C, although one is in the early stages of testing. Read more on these types of viral hepatitis.
- Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). HIV causes AIDS. This virus attacks and destroys certain white blood cells (T-helper lymphocytes) that are an important part of the immune system. As the number of these cells is reduced, the ability of the body to fight off infections also decreases. This eventually results in death. Although there is no cure, early detection allows for treatment with anti-retroviral therapies (ART) that can help to prolong life. Read more on HIV.
For any sexually transmitted disease, if you are infected, you should inform your recent sexual partner(s) so that they may be tested and treated as well. In some states, public health workers will contact those with recently reported gonorrhea or chlamydia infections to be sure that they were treated and to get the names of their sexual partner(s) to notify them to get tested and treated as well.

The Role of Lipids in Vanilla Beans and their Transformation during Curing
By: Patrick Dunphy and Krishna Bala
Posted: January 30, 2014, from the February 2014 issue of P&F magazine.
Examination of the composition of the key aroma chemicals in cured vanilla beans reveals a collection of molecules dominated by phenolic compounds. The analysis conducted by Perez-Silva et al. identified 24 key aroma active compounds from extracts of cured Mexican vanilla beans, of which 13 were phenolic.1 In addition, two C4 deoxy compounds and five short-chain fatty acids, including straight-chain even- and odd-number acids and branched chain equivalents, were also important.

Gluten-Free Made Easy
Among all the health food buzzwords out there, gluten-free really stands out, backed by a noticeable increase in everything from gluten-free restaurant menus to gluten-free foods and cookbooks. While some people ditch gluten-containing foods to help them lose weight, many others make the switch because health reasons force them to.
My own gluten-free journey began when I broke out in a skin rash of epic proportions—one that kept me swathed in voluminous clothing during the day to avoid embarrassment and up half the night in discomfort. Desperate for a cure, I ran through a plethora of procedures, from dermatologist-administered cortisone shots and steroids to acupuncture, Chinese herbs, and osteopathic treatments. Nothing worked. Then a friend urged me to consider the possibility that food allergies could be causing the rash and suggested I try an elimination diet to isolate a potential allergen. So eliminate I did, boiling my diet down to a plate of nonacidic fruits, vegetables, rice, legumes, and lean proteins.
Sure enough, for the first time in weeks, my rash began to subside. And when I reintroduced gluten-filled foods to my repertoire after a week of abstinence, I became painfully aware that gluten triggered my skin woes.
Turns out I've got plenty of company in my sensitivity to gluten, a sticky protein found primarily in wheat, rye, barley, and oats and hidden in a surprisingly wide variety of the processed and prepared foods we eat every day. Because gluten is hard to digest, it can wreak havoc on our bodies, causing symptoms that range from the simple—fatigue, bloating, gas, diarrhea, headaches, and skin rashes like the one I developed—to the severe—malabsorption of nutrients, infertility, and even osteoporosis.
Fortunately, most gluten-sensitive people experience the simpler nagging symptoms. Alessio Fasano, MD, director of the University of Maryland Center for Celiac Research, estimates that at least 10 million people in the US are gluten-sensitive.
"Many people go through most of their adult life with symptoms like cramping, bloating, and mild diarrhea, feeling that it's just their body and they have to live with it," says Beth Reardon, RD, an integrative nutritionist at Duke Integrative Medicine in Durham, North Carolina. "What they don't realize is that cutting back on wheat or even eliminating it completely can help them feel so much better."
Celiac disease vs. gluten sensitivity
Determining whether you have celiac disease or simply a sensitivity to gluten can mean the difference between a lifelong sentence to a gluten-free diet—with absolutely no exceptions—and scaling back on the amount of gluten you consume. Why? Because celiac is a hereditary autoimmune disease with no known cure except the elimination of all forms of gluten. Gluten sensitivity, on the other hand, is a condition that can cause a host of uncomfortable symptoms that can be controlled by reducing the amount of gluten you eat.
People with celiac disease often know something is terribly wrong but have trouble getting an accurate diagnosis because celiac mimics so many other conditions, most notably irritable bowel syndrome. And too many people with celiac suffer for years before seeking help because they think stomach problems just run in the family—which of course they do because families pass along the genes that cause celiac disease. Many of these stoics find out they have celiac disease only when the onset of a malignancy or a chronic disease like diabetes or Parkinson's leads to its discovery.
How can you know if you have celiac or just a sensitivity? A simple blood test, called a celiac panel, can give you a pretty good idea. Test positive on the EMA (immunoglobulin anti-endomysium antibodies) and tTG (anti-transglutaminase) components of the test, and you can be fairly certain you have the disease. Only a gastrointestinal endoscopy can produce an ironclad diagnosis, but you should undertake that only after a positive blood test.
You can find out if you're gluten-sensitive just like I did by cutting all foods containing gluten from your diet for a minimum of one week (and, ideally, up to one month) and seeing how you feel.
Why wheat can be so damaging
Why does gluten tip the scales of health for so many people? "None of us digests gluten very well," says Peter H.R. Green, MD, director of the Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University in New York City. It is, in fact, the only protein in nature that humans cannot completely metabolize. "We didn't evolve on a diet that had gluten in it," explains Reardon. "Wheat wasn't used until 10,000 years ago, so our ancient DNA is still trying to catch up with modern foods." As a result, gluten isn't as easily digested as other foods and can stay in the gastrointestinal tract and cause irritation and inflammation.
Unlike celiac disease, gluten sensitivity can also be linked to non-gluten factors like environmental pollution, pesticides in our foods, and the use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs that can alter our digestive system's immune function and reduce our ability to digest gluten. High levels of mental, emotional, or physical stress can also contribute to the problem.
Physical stress is what got me. About a year ago, I fell off my mountain bike and knocked my helmeted head with enough force to deliver a considerable concussion. Thankfully, most of my injuries were minor. But the trauma, doctors told me, likely caused enough of a blow to my body to compromise my digestive system. The result? An intolerance to wheat that manifested as a rash. While I have yet to be tested to know for sure whether I have celiac disease, my doctors have said it's highly probable, since an injury like mine can trigger the onset of the disease in an otherwise asymptomatic person.
In the end, any and all of these stressors can compromise our digestive system, says Reardon. "In general, people have a lot more gut damage today," she says, "and this can result in specific food sensitivities." On the upside, she says, people who focus on healing their digestive system through gluten elimination and proper diet could potentially transform their health and how they feel.
The land of the free
So either you know gluten is taboo for you or you're thinking of eliminating it to see if your health improves—and you're worried about what your new diet will look like. I know. I struggled with the same fears when I made the gluten-free switch. At first, it was fun. I indulged in the latest gluten-free products, baked gluten-free cookies, and picked my way through restaurant menus to target the safe choices. When the excitement wore off, however, and I sat glumly watching my husband indulge in fresh-baked French bread dipped in olive oil, I realized just how hard this was going to be.
First off, from a palate standpoint, gluten-free breads, pretzels, and pastas simply taste different, which makes sense considering they're made from ingredients like rice and potato flour and cornstarch.
Second, navigating store aisles and restaurant menus calls for an eagle-eye attention to details, because gluten can hide in the trickiest places. For example, think French-fried potatoes are gluten-free? Think again. Fries become contaminated with gluten in deep fryers that also cook wheat-containing foods, and many restaurants then dust their fries with wheat-infused seasonings.
The same holds true for many sauces and dressings, which often contain flour, soy sauce, or some other wheat-based ingredient. And even though I was vigilant, I still learned far too many simple gluten-free lessons the hard way, by trial and rash-inducing error.
So what's the best line of defense? Reading labels very carefully. As of 2006, the FDA requires all manufacturers to indicate which of their products contain wheat—a good start, but be aware that many innocent-sounding food ingredients, like malt flavoring or vinegar, contain gluten. For a complete list of foods to avoid, go to naturalsolutionsmag.com.
If all this makes you despair, just remember that it's getting easier to find tasty substitutes for most of the gluten-containing foods you crave. "If there ever was a time to go gluten-free, it is now," says Carol Fenster, author of Cooking Free (Penguin Group, 2005) and 1,000 Gluten-Free Recipes (Wiley, 2008). "Wonderful ancient grains like quinoa, amaranth, buckwheat, and wild rice are more prolific than ever. Not only are they a great-tasting alternative to wheat, they're healthier too."
And so my gluten-free adventure continues, and I steer around the obstacles and fine-tune a nutritious, satisfying, and health-promoting diet. As the days pass by, wheat and gluten become a distant memory, and my palate adjusts. Even better, my rash is gone, and I feel better than ever. n

Out to Eat
Simple tips to help you keep gluten in check when you dine out
Be choosy. Many restaurants now offer gluten-free menu options; check out glutenfreerestaurants.org for a comprehensive list.
Opt for ethnic food. Mexican, Thai, Vietnamese, and Indian cuisines often serve naturally gluten-free foods.
Speak up. Wherever you dine, let the waitstaff know you are looking for gluten-free options. Also, make sure the chef knows you've made a gluten-free request.
Avoid fried foods. These can be cross-contaminated in hard-working deep fryers.
Hit restaurants at slower times. This way you can spend more time explaining your needs to the chef or server.
Eat in an upscale establishment. This is typically a safer bet than a chain or fast-food joint.
Avoid soups and sauces. The bases and ingredients in these can hide wheat and gluten.
Frequent restaurants that cater to you. Some will even allow you to bring in your own gluten-free pizza crust and bread

Jim Cramer says it's smart to back Beck. BWAHAHAHA!!!
http://downwithtyranny.blogspot.com/200 … -that.html
If Glenn Beck weren't one of the most negative and divisive forces on the American political scene you could almost feel sorry for him. With the latest batch of 16 advertisers pledging to stop underwriting his hate-filled, anti-American propaganda, there are now 3 dozen former advertisers who have told Fox News that they're fed up with the unbalanced hatred and racism. Among the companies who have joined the boycott of Glenn Beck's dementia are AT&T, Campbell Soup, Clorox, FreeCreditReport.com, Johnson & Johnson, Verizon, Farmers Insurance, Lowe's, Sprint, UPS. They all agree with ColorOfChange that Beck's offensive racism is over the line.
Interestingly, Lowe's has gone a bit further, much to their credit. In an e-mail to ColorOfChange, Meliski Cox, a spokesperson for Lowe's wrote, "While we will continue to advertise on news programming, including FOX News, there are certain programs on the FOX Network that do not meet Lowe's advertising guidelines, including The O'Reilly Factor and Glenn Beck Program." The spokesman for Clorox was also very clear that his company is finished with Beck's repulsive approach:
"Per our advertising standards, we don't advertise in programs that display exploitive sex or violence, treat ethnic, religious, or political groups in a disparaging manner, present facts inaccurately or distort them to blatantly partisan advantage, and treat individuals or groups in a demeaning manner," said Adam Oberweiser, a spokesperson for Clorox, in a phone message to a ColorOfChange.org member. "We have had limited advertisements on the Glenn Beck Program in the past, however the statements he made during that show would not adhere to our programming standards. Furthermore, we will not be advertising on his program in the future since he did violate our own advertising standards."
Meanwhile, on Monday Jim Cramer was defending Beck, calling him a nice guy. I'm sure Blondi thought her master was nice too-- until he had his doctor, Werner Haase, test a cyanide capsule on her (and ordered her dog handler to shoot her 5 pups in the bunker). Listen to Mr. Suave calling the vicious racist and violence inciter "a nice guy" and insuring investors that Fox News' parent company is still a great buy because the advertisers will all come back in the end. Following Jim Cramer's investment advice is the surest route to the poor house anyone has ever devised.

Baked Pears with Walnuts and Golden Syrup
This dessert is perfect for a cold winter's day and of course you could use honey instead of the golden syrup. It would also be delicious served with some custard…yum…
- 50 g butter (plus extra for greasing)
- 4 large ripe pears
- juice of 1/2 lemon
- 25 g walnuts (finely chopped)
- 4 tblsp golden syrup
- lightly whipped double cream, to serve
- Preheat the oven to 200C (400F/Gas 6) and butter a dish large enough to take the pears in a single layer.
- Peel the pears and then cut each one in half and using a teaspoon scoop out the cores. Toss in the lemon juice to prevent them from going brown.
- Place the butter in a bowl and beat in the walnuts then use the mixture to fill the cavities of the pear halves. Drizzle over the golden syrup and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the pears are softened and the sauce at the bottom of the dish is bubbling.
- Arrange the pear halves on plates and spoon over the sauce, then add a spoonful of the whipped double cream

The analysis is conducted in a contactless and fully automated manner. Samples are taken using sterile, toothpick-shaped paper points, after which the bacteria are removed from the point and their isolated DNA injected into reaction chambers containing dried reagents. There are eleven such chambers on each card, each featuring the reagent for one of the eleven periodontal pathogens. The total number of bacteria is determined in an additional chamber, via polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This method allows millions of copies of even tiny numbers of pathogen DNA sequences to be made. In order to generate the extremely quick changes in temperature that are required for PCR, the disk-shaped plastic chip is attached to a metal heating block with three temperature zones and mechanically turned so it passes over these zones. This causes a fluorescent signal to be generated that is measured by a connected optical measuring device featuring a fluorescence probe, a photo detector and a laser diode. The key benefit is that the signal makes it possible not only to quantify each type of bacterium and thus determine the severity of the inflammation, but also to establish the total number of all the bacteria combined. This enables doctors to fine-tune an antibiotic treatment accordingly.

Michael Vick bantered around the practice field on Wednesday, smiling and laughing with his teammates, leading the offense through drills as the starting quarterback of the NFC.
Let that sink in for a second: Michael Vick. At the Pro Bowl. As the starting quarterback for the NFC.
It's been a long journey since 2007, when Vick began serving those 21 months in a federal penitentiary for running the Bad Newz Kennels dogfighting ring. But here he is in Hawaii after posting the best season of his career.
From prison to the Pro Bowl — who'd have thunk it?
"This one feels great due to the fact that I've been through so much and trained to getting back to this position," Vick said. "It's paramount for me and my family, and I'm just thankful."
There are many reasons to be.
When bankruptcy hit Vick in 2008 while he was still in prison, the end of Vick as an NFL quarterback seemed like a reality.
It was hard enough to get NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell to give Vick a second chance, but Vick eventually got his reprieve upon his release with conditional reinstatement. He signed his two-year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles shortly thereafter, but nothing spectacular happened in 2009 — not with Donovan McNabb as the starter and Kevin Kolb filling in when McNabb was injured.
When McNabb was traded to Washington last offseason, Vick was elevated to Philadelphia's No. 2 quarterback behind Kolb. And as fate would have it, Kolb went down with a concussion in Week 1. Vick's opportunity had arrived. From there, the rest, as they say, is history.
"This is what you work for," Vick said. "You work hard to put yourself in this position. It's great. I'm ecstatic to be here. I feel like, you know, not only me, but the rest of my teammates worked very hard this season. I've got to give them a lot of credit for me being in this position."
Not only that, but a lot of it goes to Marty Mornhinweg. The Eagles' offensive coordinator reformed Vick, working diligently with him in the offseason and through training camp to make him a better all-around quarterback. The goal was to make Vick more patient in the pocket, not have him just take off at the first sign of trouble, as he so often did during his time with the Atlanta Falcons.
The result was a season in which Vick, who seized the starting job from Kolb after his concussion, threw for 3,019 yards (first time eclipsing that plateau) with career highs in passer rating (100.2) and touchdowns (21) while only throwing six interceptions in 12 starts. Vick still ran (for 679 yards and a career-high nine touchdowns), but he picked his spots wisely. And it's because of the direction that Mornhinweg instilled in him last year.
"Marty has been great," Vick said. "We have a great relationship. We work well together. We understand each other. He's a coach that demands a lot out of the quarterback position, and I like that."
Vick had himself a nice year in 2010 financially, all things considered. He's set to receive a $1.9 million bonus for reaching certain contractual playing-time plateaus, NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora reported Wednesday, citing a league source. And his base salary in 2010 was $3.75 million.
But with his two-year deal with Philadelphia finished, the question is whether or not Vick will be in an Eagles uniform next season.
"Hopefully, I'll be with the Eagles next year, and we'll see what happens," Vick said. "We'll see what happens over the next couple months. I just got to be patient and take it day by day."
That mentality applies to enjoying his week in Hawaii.
"It's great to be here," said Vick, who just received his first endorsement deal since his release from prison. "I'm excited about it. I'm enjoying the guys and enjoying being out here playing football."
That's understandable. After all, there was a time when it seemed like that may never happen again.

Tseng on verge of significant milestones
BY Bruce Young | ALPG Tour | 2011 ANZ Ladies Masters | Round Three | 12 Feb 2011
Two weeks ago Taiwanese golfer Yani Tseng arrived on Australian shores as the World Number five. In all probability she will leave Australia on Monday for Thailand and the opening LPGA Tour event of the year as the female games' leading ranked player.
Tseng began this week's ANZ RACV Ladies Masters as the favourite to win this time honoured event in Australian Women's golf for the very first time and in today's third round she cemented that favouritism. The 22 year old raced past the 36 hole leaders, Australian Kristie Smith and American Stacy Lewis, with a stunning round of 63 and established a three shot margin over Lewis leading into tomorrow's final round.
Starting round three one shot behind the leaders, Tseng quickly served notice that this would be her day when she birdied the opening three holes to create a one shot lead over Lewis. Although the 25 year old American drew level when she birdied the 6th, Tseng birdied the 9th and she was hardly seen for dust for the remainder of the round.
Tseng birdied the 10th, 12th, 13th and 15th to break four shots clear and although Lewis birdied the 15th and 16th Tseng responded with yet another birdie at the 17th and headed into the final hole with that four shot lead reinstated. Lewis would have one last say however when she hit a delightful approach to the last and holed from 10 feet for one final birdie and the margin was three.
"I feel very excited," said Tseng after her round. "My putting was much better than yesterday. I changed something this morning by standing closer to the ball and being more directly over the ball.
"It feels like last week really and tomorrow I am just going to go out and enjoy myself and the crowd."
The world ranking situation was raised. "I wasn't sure about that as earlier in the week it was not clear if that was the case but I am now. It will be a dream come true for me but I want to make sure if I get to number one that I stay there longer than one week."
There is little doubt that Tseng has that ability. Tomorrow might well start a lengthy reign at the top of the female game for the 22 year old.
Intriguingly, if Lewis was able to upset the favourite tomorrow she would become the first ever American to win this event at RACV Royal Pines. Another American, Jane Geddes, won the first two years the event was staged although both those tournaments were played at Royal Pines.
"I felt like I got lapped a little bit," said Lewis after her round referring to her playing partner's heroics. "She (Tseng) played an amazing round of golf today and you just have to take your hat off and tell her –good job.
"I was struggling with my swing in the middle of the round and kind of losing some shots left but I think I might have found something on the last hole and that birdie was key," she added referring to the fact that the birdie kept her within striking distance. "She (Tseng) is playing great but I have played with her a lot and I can hang with her. I don't see her shooting worse than four or five under so I am going to have to go low if I am to have a chance."
Playing in the group ahead, another American, Ryan O'Toole, birdied her final two holes to move to 15 under and she will head into tomorrow' final round in outright third position. O'Toole turned 24 yesterday and celebrated in style with a round of 66 and today added a 67 to be within five of Tseng.
South African Ashleigh Simon birdied three of her last four holes to move to 14 under and lies in fourth position. A precocious talent earlier in amateur career and the youngest winner of the South African Open, the 21 year is now beginning to fulfill some of that promise. At the age of 14 Simon represented South Africa at the World Amateur Championship and a year later became the youngest player to win the Ladies South African Open.
The seven time winner of the event Karrie Webb put together a tidy round of 68 but it hardly made any difference in her position in the tournament. "It was a little better than yesterday but still up and down and inconsistent. I guess four under is a decent score but probably not good enough to be close tomorrow. I would probably need a 61 tomorrow (referring to her final round last year) as I would say 17 or 18 under would be leading by the end of the day today. As it turned out 20 under is leading and Webb is 9 behind.
Tseng however could well be on the verge of golfing greatness and tomorrow she seems likely to take a further step in that direction.

As of Thursday, January 17, 2013
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
ATLANTA — The Atlanta Hawks suspended top-scorer Josh Smith for Wednesday night's home game against the Brooklyn Nets for "conduct detrimental to the team" following an incident in practice the previous day.
The one-game suspension, which comes with an undisclosed fine, was announced Wednesday by Hawks general manager Danny Ferry.
Hawks coach Larry Drew would provide no details on the incident in Tuesday's practice.
"I really don't want to put too much focus on that anymore," Drew said before the game against the Nets. "Tomorrow we'll welcome Josh back with open arms and we'll move forward."
Hawks guard Jeff Teague also would provide no details on the incident.
"I don't even remember," Teague said. "I think the whole practice was just a good day. I don't even remember what happened or how it went down or anything."
Smith was called for a technical foul in Monday night's 97-58 loss at Chicago. Only a late basket by Teague saved the Hawks from setting their lowest scoring total in franchise history.
The Hawks have lost six of seven.
"Clearly I am competitive and was frustrated by our recent losses," Smith said in a statement released by the team. "I understand and respect the team's actions and just want to get back on the court to do whatever is necessary to help my teammates. I apologize for letting them down and apologize to our fans for not being available for tonight's game."
Smith was not expected to be at Philips Arena on Wednesday night.
Smith, 27, leads the team with 16.5 points and 2.3 blocked shots per game. He also is averaging 8.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists.
Smith, an Atlanta native and nine-year veteran, set career highs with averages of 18.8 points and 9.6 rebounds last season.
Ferry said he expects a positive response to the suspension from Smith.
"Josh and I discussed the issue and he understood and accepted this course of action," Ferry said. "We are confident that he will respond positively, learn from this experience and come back with a renewed sense of purpose to the team moving forward."
Smith can be a free agent after the season, and his future with the team is a key for the Hawks. Ferry could decide to trade the 6-foot-9 forward, especially if the Hawks keep falling in the Eastern Conference standings.
Drew said he hopes Smith remains with the team.
"We look at Josh as we do at any player in the situation of the last year of his contract," Drew said. "Josh is a talented player. He's a big part of what we do. He's a guy that we can count on and rely on doing what we do, and hopefully he will be a Hawk for a long time. He's just a phenomenal talent."
Ferry traded guard Joe Johnson and forward Marvin Williams before the season. Johnson made his first return to Atlanta with the Nets on Wednesday night.

Relax outdoors in London
Published: Monday 2nd of August 2010
There are so many things to see and do in London that a trip to the British capital can sometimes be quite exhausting.
So it is a pleasant relief to find a nice spot where you can relax and sit down. London is blessed with many suitable places to go, as it hosts a number of delightful public spaces where you can take the weight off your feet and have a break.
Hampstead Heath, for instance, is one such location. Situated just four miles away from Trafalgar Square, its grassy hills, ponds and woodlands are an oasis of calm in a city that never sleeps.
Even the kids will find plenty to enjoy at Hampstead Heath, as it has recreational facilities such as playgrounds, while the trees will seem like a magical forest to little ones.
Adults, meanwhile, can relax with a book in idyllic surroundings or perhaps marvel at the stunning array of flora and fauna that populates this area.
You might find it hard to believe that you are actually in London when you come here.
Another outdoor space you might enjoy during your visit to London is St James's Park, which stands near Buckingham Palace and the Mall.
Again, it is another location in central London that somehow becomes a quiet and pleasant environment, even though it is surrounded by the heavy traffic and activity you would expect in a global city like this.
The park is populated by a stunning collection of bird life, including ducks, gulls, geese and pelicans, as well as swans and even the relatively rare carrion crows and grey wagtails.
Ornithologists could easily lose themselves in this delightful location and be charmed by the remarkable selection of birds that flock in and out every single day.
And it is an ideal base if you plan to see some of the pomp at Buckingham Palace, such as the Changing of the Guards.
Alternatively, you might want to head to St James's Park if you plan to take in some of the free outdoor concerts that are regularly staged here throughout the summer months.
London is not exactly known as a place where you can enjoy green spaces and wildlife, but the sheer number of stunning parks around the city suggests it is being underrated by many people.
Richmond Park is yet another example of how this may be the case, as it features hills and woodland gardens that again make you forget you are in the UK's capital city.
Crowds, traffic jams and the hustle and bustle of life in London are the last things on your mind in this spot, which is actually a National Nature Reserve.
The accolade has been handed to this historic location as it contains a remarkable variety of wildlife, ranging from grebe, mallards, pike and some truly beautiful deer.
Since they are located at various points around central London, all these green spaces are very easy to reach by bus, by Tube or on foot.
And of course, it costs absolutely nothing to investigate these locations and enjoy all that they have to offer.
Chances are you will have decided which museums, galleries and other tourist attractions you want to take in during your visit to London.
So when you have planned all this, see which public spaces are located nearby.
It's a great way to recharge your batteries on a busy day of sightseeing while taking in some locations that can be regarded as stunning in their own right.

Auto Shutdown Genius User Reviews
out of 14 user reviews
Results 1-4 of 4
"Good program."
Version: Auto Shutdown Genius 3.0.1
Light,Functional and Effective. (Not at all Bloated)
Quickly get's the feel of this program.
Work's well with Win7.
I wish it could have the option of turning off the CPU usage window.
Its really not required ,i mean what purpose does it serve if that thing can be fulfilled by the Windows Task Manager.
This is the best functional AutoShutdown program i have ever used, i have tried few other's hosted in this website as well few other's which i came across the net while searching. But i must say: this is the best of them all.
Light,Functional and Effective. (Not at all Bloated)
Quickly get's the feel of this program.
Work's well with Win7.
I like the overall design and size of the Window size and user interface. Its really what it should be for a program it was made for. Small, Dainty and Functional.
"Simple auto-shutdown application"
Version: Auto Shutdown Genius 3.0.1
Simple, easy to use, low memory usage.
To simple interface, make it looks quite obsolete.
Must download one!
"it's genius"
Version: Auto Shutdown Genius 3.0.1
Good program you can schedule to shutdown
yet to find
As I see it's nice program. we look more simple and light
"Needs work"
Version: Auto Shutdown Genius 3.0.1
It does what it says it will do, I will say that. Written fairly well in that it has no conflicts with Windows 7 Home Premium. It installed and uninstalled cleanly so that's a plus. All of the options written work as well.
If you're looking for this program to just shutdown your PC after a given amount of time, it will certainly do that. However, whether you are using the computer or not it will shutdown on you after the time you set has elapsed, period. Idle or not.
The knowledge base FAQ is pretty much non-existent on the vendors website. The only help you'll get there is how to install it, run it and uninstall it. As far as the company's claim that it will run on Vista and Win7 is a thin claim.
I contacted the vendor with the "idle" issue I mentioned previously and was told, and I quote, "We cannot fix that on Vista and Win7."
