To know the Moomins was to know Tove [Jansson]. She poured her wit, dreams and fears into the characters.The Economist
A traveling prophet may hold the key to happiness, but do the Moomins really need it?
When a charismatic prophet comes to town, the residents of Moominvalley are easily convinced to follow his doctrine for true happiness. Intrigued by their friends and neighbors' lifestyle changes, the impressionable Moomins find themselves attempting to adopt the teachings of their new spiritual leader. But the freer they get, the more miserable they feel. Moominvalley's state of divine chaos is further complicated by the prophet's well-intentioned decree to free all of the jail's inmates. Moomin Begins a New Life is an eccentric all-ages adventure from the acclaimed Finnish cartoonist Tove Jansson that explores the appeal of self-transformation and the pursuit of happiness.

How Much Do You Spend on Wine?
Seeking the best value for the buck.
Our recent Pinot Noir taste test and my recently-bare wine fridge got me thinking about how I spend my money. For the taste test, we tasted 12 wines made from (predominantly) pinot noir, to mixed results. Pinot Noir is a grape that's especially hard to make into cheap wine; so in general I look elsewhere when I'm stocking up on a budget, but in the comments section of our taste test, a lot of you chimed in with favorites.
There were some recommendations in the 10-buck range, but a few that edged higher than our taste test cutoff of $15. Serious Eater imwalkin mentioned La Crema and A to Z, and a few folks seconded the notion that they'd rather spend $3 more on a bottle and get something they really enjoyed.
Over the years, as I've had the chance to taste more and more wine from around the world, I've realized that I'd rather save my money for wines I love. I want my glass of wine to be worth the money, the sobriety, and the calories. If it doesn't taste good, why bother? Much of the time, I'd rather spend $18 on one delicious bottle of wine, and skip drinking another evening, rather than spend $18 on two $9 bottles of wine that I don't actually find delicious. It's the same amount of money, but my priority is flavor.
Of course it would be great to find tons of delicious dirt-cheap wine, but making wine, and bottling and shipping it, costs money. Land costs money. Labor costs money. (For more on this, check out our series from importer Terry Theise on why some wines cost more than others, and where your wine dollars go. Part one is here, part two, here.)
So tell me, Serious Wine Lovers: how do you allocate your wine budget? Are you a great bargain shopper? Do you find good stuff for $12 and under? Or do you save your pennies for bottles that are a little pricier? Do you buy cases in order to get a discount? Or did you join a wine club? Tell us your tricks and wine finds in the comments!

Missouri GOP to Finally Help the Unfortunate: The Rich and Business Owners.
Missouri GOP Wants To Raise Taxes On 100,000 Seniors And Disabled Citizens To Pay For Corporate Tax Break
Yesterday, Missouri lawmakers began a special session during which Republicans will try to pay for a business tax cut by eliminating a tax credit that benefits more than 100,000 senior citizens and disabled people.
Missouri Republicans are just the latest in a long list of state legislatures that are funding more corporate tax breaks on the backs of low- and middle-income residents. In this case, Republicans are targeting a property tax credit that helps offset higher rent for some of the state's most vulnerable citizens:
At stake is a tax credit that provides up to$750 for lower-income elderly and disabled people. Called the "Circuit Breaker," it is designed to be an offset for the property taxes included in the rent paid by people with incomes of $27,500 or less.
The tax credit costs $53 million annually. Repeal is part of a package that also would impose limits and sunset dates on credits targeted to developers. The Circuit Breaker tax credit is the only credit slated for repeal.
"The real issue is that many people with disabilities simply can't own their own homes because they live on a subsistence income," said Edward Duff of Joplin, a member of the Governor's Council on Disability. "It really is a sort of parity to offer these renters this shelter."
Once again, Republicans have shown they are not averse to raising taxes, as long as they are on the poor. The "circuit-breaker" tax credit is such an important aid for low-income residents that 29 other states offer property tax circuit-breakers or similar programs, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. Killing the credit would raise taxes on groups including disabed vets and senior citizens by up to $750 a year.
The proposal has drawn criticism from a diverse range of groups, from conservative anti-tax crusaders to liberal groups. Opponents include the AARP, the Association of Retired Missouri State Employees, the liberal-leaning Missouri Budget Project and the conservative United for Missouri, as well as agencies that work with the disabled on the local level.
The Post-Dispatch reports that Republicans have faced such a backlash for trying to repeal the tax credit that the tax-credit package they crafted may be unraveling. The bill's sponsor, Sen. Chuck Purgason (R), has prepared an alternative plan aimed at spreading tax credit cutbacks more equally among low-income residents and developers.
"Republicans are always portrayed as taking from the poor and giving to the rich, and we didn't want to do that," Purgason said. However, it's unclear if there's enough of a consensus to pass the alternative bill.

Real Estate: Get The Most Out Of Your Investment
(page 1 of 2)
If you're a homeowner, you probably want to get the best value out of your investment—regardless of whether you plan to sell in the near future or stay put for the rest of your life. The simplest ways to maximize your home's worth? Keep it in tip-top shape. And remodel selectively.
Even in today's sizzling real estate market, buyers are much more willing to pay top dollar for a well-kept house than one that needs serious repair.
"None of the components of a house last forever," says home inspector Lance Luke. "It's like a car. If all you do is put gas into it and drive it around, you'll eventually find yourself stuck on the side of the freeway."
All it takes to head off deterioration of your home is diligence. Clean house on a regular basis. It's important to get rid of the dust, dirt and mildew that can damage paint, floors, countertops and tiles. It's also one of the best ways to know what's going on with your house—the countless fixtures, appliances, finishes, nooks and crannies. After all, it doesn't take a professional to spot loose shingles, leaky faucets or termite droppings.
Take care of minor repairs as they arise. That way, your house isn't just safer and more comfortable to live in—you'll avoid bigger, costlier projects in the long run. This is crucial advice, even for homeowners with no plans to sell or rent out their homes.
"The vast majority of expensive repairs I see have to do with complacency, or what we call deferred maintenance,'" says Chris Terry, president of Distinctive Home Inspections. "Everyone drinks a cup of coffee in the morning—take your cup outside and walk around. I live by the saying, An ounce of prevention is worth five pounds of cure.'"
There are several issues that all Hawaii homeowners should keep an eye on:
The Usual Suspects
TERMITES are the bane of homeowners across the state. Drywood termites (the kind that leave telltale droppings) are bad, but ground termites (the ones that form mud tubes around the base of a house) are the worst. "It can get so bad that, in six months to a year, ground termites can level a house," Luke says. Tent fumigation can kill drywood termites. For ground termites, the most effective remedy is an in-ground baiting system, such as Sentricon. Whatever treatment you buy, it pays to get the warranty, Luke advises. "That way, you're covered if the termites come back within the next few years."
ROOFING can last anywhere from 10 to 50 years, depending on the material used, as well as your neighborhood's climate. "Say you have a wood-shingle house in Ma-noa or Kahaluu, where it rains a lot," Luke says. "Although that type of roof can last more than 20 years, if it's not maintained, it might need to be replaced in 10." Fix leaks as soon as you notice them. Left unchecked, a leak won't just cause water damage to your home, it can spur mold growth on everything from drywall to floors.
Most homes need REPAINTING every four to seven years, with thorough prep work—stripping, sanding, re-caulking open joints and applying a prime coat—beforehand. You've waited too long, Luke says, when "the paint is chalky or you can see peeling or cracking."
Unless you happen to be a licensed electrician, don't tamper with your home's ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. Call in the pros. It's not just smarter, it's safer. "A lot of home fires are caused by electrical problems, usually because something was done improperly," Terry says. Some signs of outdated or inadequate electrical systems: lights dim when an electrical appliance is turned on, two-pronged outlets instead of three, messy wiring or the presence of three or more electrical panels (you may know them as fuse boxes) in a single-family home.
PLUMBING also usually requires professional help. Problems can range from old or incompatible piping materials to faulty fixtures and waste lines, resulting in dripping faucets, clogged drains and leaky pipes. How can you tell if your plumbing system needs to be replaced? "The water pressure gets lower and lower, until virtually no water is coming out of your faucets," Luke says. If additional rooms were added to your home improperly, there's a chance that your electrical and plumbing systems are overworked.
Get to the bottom of things—inspect your home's FOUNDATION. Unchecked ground-termite infestations, improper drainage systems and, especially if your home is built on a hillside, bad soil conditions can all lead to expensive problems later. "If there are cracks in the foundation, or you sink into the ground when you walk because the soil is soft, or there's water coming out from under the foundation and it's a sunny day, then something's wrong," says Luke.
Set aside money each month for UNEXPECTED REPAIRS—just as condominium owners pay monthly maintenance fees.

AMHERST (AP) — An Amherst fire official says a male student from the University of Massachusetts is dead after a fire at an apartment complex that's used for off-campus housing by nearly two dozen students.
The Republican reported that (http://bit.ly/SrQPH8) Assistant Chief Lindsay Stromgren declined to give the victim's name or age.
State Fire Marshal Stephen Coan said the fire was reported at the Rolling Green apartment complex at about 4:45 a.m. Monday.
Officials said the apartment housed about 32 people, including 22 UMass students. The state fire marshal's office said UMass is working to find housing for the students.
Coan said the fire appears to have started in the unit where the deceased person was discovered. He said the blaze remains under investigation.

Brilliant people doing important work with fascinating treasures: to me that's the Smithsonian. I'm particularly
lucky that I get to see the iconic objects and talk with the passionate people behind them. (Plus, I have a lot of
laughs with my creative colleagues.) It all adds up to powerful moments, such as when the Oklahoma city bombing
survivors came to our National Museum of American History to console the survivors of the 9-11 attack—I'll never
forget that—and that's just one of many. It's a privilege and a public service to work here. I actually like to talk
to the tourists from all over the country who come to the Smithsonian; it's their stuff; we just take care of it for them.
John Yahner
— Speechwriter to the Secretary, Office of Public Affairs
My job at the Smithsonian provides me a unique opportunity in that I get to work with every museum, center,
and division within the institution. The Smithsonian is so large with such a diverse culture that I am always
meeting someone new and saying "we do that too." I love that my job is different every day and that the project
I work on has an entrepreneurial twist as we create something the Smithsonian has never done before. So in a way,
I get to play a scientist without really being one.
Jennifer Price
— Campaign Officer, Office of Advancement
The key question is this: Do you like getting up in the morning to come to work? I have answered "yes" to that
question for more than three decades. It's hard to describe how the Smithsonian gets under your skin, but it does.
We have all kinds of personalities here, as you would expect, with a campus full of scientists, historians, curators,
artists, engineers, archivists, conservators, and more. The sheer diversity of people and their talents makes this a
great place to work. Plus, you feel proud when people ask where you work and you see their reaction when you say
"Smithsonian." Really, there is nothing else like it. If you come to work at the Smithsonian, there's a chance you
might get hooked; like me. And that's a good thing.
Linda St. Thomas
— Chief Spokesperson, Office of Public Affairs
I enjoy working at the Smithsonian for many reasons. The museums have wonderful collections and dedicated staff
and volunteers. I have many opportunities to work with a wide range of people throughout the institution and interact
with the public. The visitors are often amazed by how much we have on display and how many excellent programs, tours,
and unique experiences we offer. It is a place where I am constantly challenged, involved, and feel like I am contributing
and sharing my expertise.
Margery Gordon
— Education Specialist,
Office of Education and Outreach
I love working at the Smithsonian because I receive the support and freedom to make the Institution more transparent
to our visitors. The diversity of the staff infuses the workplace with innovation, competition, and collaboration.
As a young professional, I have the opportunity to advance my career while pursuing the Smithsonian's important
missions and strategic goals."
Patrick J. Goar
— Developer, Accessibility Program
I love working at the Smithsonian because I get to do something different every day. From working on an archaeological
excavation in Kenya to talking with teachers about new discoveries in human evolution, from digging deep into new
research on the evolution of human diet to organizing public programs with scientists from around the world, I not
only get to pursue my passion for prehistory -- but I also get to share it. I feel a privileged to be part of the
Briana Pobiner
— Research Scientist and Museum Educator, Department of Anthropology
Working in the Director's office of NMNH I learn something new every day. I support the office with administrative
work but I also have opportunities to be hands-on, such as packaging specimens for the new Q?rius education center.
I am able to see how the museum is run, and also be involved in the educational/scientific programs side of the museum.
It's great because I can see how my work contributes to a successful NMNH.
Cinthia Ennaco
— Office Aid, Office of the Director
There are three important reasons why I love working at the Smithsonian! 1) It's a world-class organization with a
knowledge base that exceeds any other. 2) My colleagues are interesting, intellectual, and well-informed on many
subjects. 3) Each day that I walk into the Museum of Natural History I know that I will be met with the opportunity
to learn something new.
David Opkins
— Administrative Project Specialist, Smithsonian Libraries
Since 2006, I fell in love with Barro Colorado Island and its staff. Their pride in being part of the Smithsonian
captured my heart ever since I tried to become part of Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute's workforce, I even
applied from Costa Rica my home country. Finally in 2010, I was given the opportunity to work in this wonderful and
complex world of scientists. I enjoy deeply my work every day, because even though it is administrative, I know it
makes an impact in science. This has been the most amazing job I have ever had; it is quite an adventure to deal with
employees whose jobs can take place from a simple office, to a crane over the tree tops to an island in the middle of
the Panama Canal. I am very proud to work with people that have so much pride of their work and for the organization
they work for… Smithsonian Institution."
Mariechen Lang

West Kootenay Advertiser
In honour of this weekend's Rossland Winter Carnival, a look at collectibles associated with the long-running event.
In 1907, to mark the carnival's tenth anniversary, the Rossland Miner issued a series of postcards depicting various events to entice visitors.
They were printed on heavy stock, raggedly cut and poorly lithographed, but they're still interesting — especially the one bearing the caption: "A hockey match at Rossland, BC rink. The largest skating and curling rink under cover west of Winnipeg. Come to our Winter Carnival."
Indeed, the photo shows an enormous ice surface, miles of bunting suspended from the ceiling and a crowd of thousands. Only problem: it was actually taken in Montreal.
Other images in the set were similarly cribbed, with the possible exception of one titled "Ready for the Snowshoe Race," showing three men with capital Rs on their chests, presumably for Rossland.
Another card shows some kids on a sled plummeting down a sheer drop. The caption reads: "A mile a minute on Rossland's zip — 250 feet of a drop in 1,500 feet. Going some!"
A fourth example depicts a ski jumper flying over a crowd of bowler-hatted men. The caption promotes the "Ski jump for Championship of America. American championship, 106 feet. Canadian championship, 84 feet, held in Rossland. First prize $150, second prize $50. Also a magnificent cup, offered by Eddie Sullivan and Arthur Seagram, for breaking Canadian record."
A fifth card has someone with long skies and a long tasselled toque above the caption: "The great Norwegian-Canadian winter pastime SKI RACING." A variant with several skiers reads: "Championship of Canada — Open to all amateurs — Ski Race."
The cards were each spot coloured in pink, indigo, red, blue, or green. A similar set issued in 1908 had the same images and slogans, but at least one addition: a card showing a skier floating above … well, are they people or shrubbery? It's hard to tell. The caption says: "Torgal Noren making his championship of Canada jump of 91 feet at Rossland's tent winter carnival. Championship of Canada Jump for the Jeldness Cup." (Olaus Jeldness was the man credited with bringing skiing to Rossland.)
The cards fetch up to $40 each at auction today.
• A 1902 envelope for the firm of Taylor and McQuarrie, advertising the fifth annual carnival sold in 2006 for $33 US. It promised $2,000 in prizes for "hockey, skating, ski races, cutter races, snowshoeing, dog races, and masquerade," as well as "Single fare for the round trip on all railways."
• A rare handbill for day one of the 1917 carnival hockey championship sold in 2001 for $99 US. It trumpeted three games: Anaconda (a Greenwood suburb) versus Spokane in senior men's play, Trail versus Rossland in intermediate play, and Anaconda versus Rossland in the international championship semi-final.
Chuck Clark was advertised as judge of play and Nelson's Harry Bishop as official referee. Bishop, a superb player himself, died in the 1924 train explosion that also claimed the life of Doukhobor leader Peter (Lordly) Verigin.

White Chocolate Raspberry Swirl Pie
I love white chocolate and I love cheesecake...so this is one of my preferred desserts. The combination of my mom's flaky pie crust with sweet white chocolate raspberry filling is perfect. The pie crust for this recipe may seem slightly dry and may crack when rolling out. However, the less water you use, the flakier the crust will be.—Layna Hendrich, Cody, Wyoming

Makes8 servings
- 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup shortening

- 2 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup white baking chips, melted
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 3 tablespoons seedless raspberry jam
- In a small bowl, combine flour and salt; cut in shortening until crumbly. Gradually add water, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball.
- Roll out pastry to fit a 9-in. pie plate. Transfer pastry to pie plate. Trim pastry to 1/2 in. beyond edge of plate; flute edges.
- Line unpricked pastry with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Fill with dried beans, uncooked rice or pie weights. Bake at 450° for 8 minutes. Remove foil and weights; bake 5 minutes longer. Cool on a wire rack. Reduce heat to 350°.
- In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, melted white chips, sugar and vanilla until blended. Add eggs; beat on low speed just until combined. Pour into crust.
- In a microwave, heat jam until melted; stir until smooth. Drop by teaspoonfuls over filling; cut through filling with a knife to swirl.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes or until center is almost set. Cool completely on a wire rack. Refrigerate leftovers.

Well hello there, this is the first in a little series of hair accessory ideas. I plan to share several variations of hair clips throughout the next week or two. Keep checking back!
**Oh, and since only one of my girls will allow any fun clips in her hair, i'd love to pass on a few to YOU. If you'd like one, just leave a comment and i'll see how many i can make and send out as the series goes on. :)
Here's the first one: "Color Burst Clip"
Materials: tulle, thread, small piece of fabric, poly-fill, metal hair clip
1. Fold tulle in half twice so it is has 4 layers, then cut a strip about 18 inches long and 3-4 inches wide
2. Gather the tulle by hand or machine leaving about a 1/4inch edge
3. Tie the ruffled/gathered tulle to form a tight circle
4. Cut a 3x3 inch square of fabric
5. Roll a big chunk of poly-fill into a tight ball
6. Wrap the fabric around the ball and sew to create a little pouch-type ball
7. Stuff the little fabric ball through the hole in the tulle circle and hot clue the edges to keep it in place
8. Sew the metal clip onto the back, hot glue the top to make it more secure.
Tie the two ends together tightly
Push the bundle all the way through the center of the tulle

Nuclear expansion review halted at S. Texas Project
Foreign ownership may threaten plant's domestic control.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has suspended its review of the foreign ownership portion of the application to expand the South Texas Project nuclear plant over concerns that the owners haven't done enough to ensure domestic control of the plant.
Toshiba Corp., based in Japan, could obtain an 85 percent ownership stake in the two nuclear plants proposed for the site outside of Bay City, the NRC found, meaning the company could have "the power to exercise ownership, control or domination over NINA," or Nuclear Innovation North America.
NINA is a partnership between Toshiba and NRG Energy, which currently shares ownership of STP's existing nuclear plants with CPS Energy and Austin Energy.
The president of NINA said in a statement Wednesday that the company is committed to complying with all NRC requirements, and noted that the rest of the application before the commission will continue to move forward.
NRG and CPS were partners in the expansion effort until disagreements over its cost devolved into a bitter lawsuit that ended with CPS retaining just a small stake in the project.
Earlier this year, NRG announced it would no longer commit additional capital to the development of the new units.
That apparently could allow Toshiba to acquire a 90 percent ownership position in NINA, which the NRC in its letter said translates to the 85 percent stake in the two proposed units at STP.
The commission asked NRG for more information on its "foreign ownership Negation Action Plan," in late summer and fall, but that information appears to be insufficient.
NRC staff, in its Dec. 13 letter to NINA, determined that the plan as submitted doesn't meet the requirements of a federal law prohibiting foreign ownerships of a nuclear plant because, since NRG will not be investing additional capital in the project, "there is reason to believe that most of the financing going forward will be from Toshiba," a foreign corporation.
The commission confirmed that the rest of the licensing application will continue to move ahead, but a license, which has been expected by sometime in 2012, will not be granted until the foreign ownership question is resolved.
Jamey Seely, NINA's president and CEO said the company has taken a number of steps to ensure American control over the project, including placing Americans in key positions, including the chief executive, regulatory and safety heads.
Also, once built, the plants would be operated by the South Texas Nuclear Operating Company, which is owned and controlled by NRG, CPS and Austin Energy.
CPS is not involved in any of the financing discussions within NINA, said a spokeswoman, and she noted that the proposed nuclear plants are not part of the utility's current long-term generation planning.
If the plants do get licensed and built, she said, CPS would incorporate the roughly 200 megawatts its investment will bring into future projections.
The expansion, Seely said in her statement, represents an opportunity "to bring billions of dollars in investments and thousands of high quality jobs to the U.S., and we remain confident that the NRC and NINA will work together to ensure its potential is realized."

Not the soyfood 'natto', but a miso blend with chopped ginger root and slivered kombu sea vegetable, shoyu, and lightly barley malt sweetened. A sweet and spicy chutney. Use as a spread or dip. It enhances almost any dish. 22 pound net keg.
Eden Natto Miso is a delicious sweet and spicy condiment or chutney made of whole soybeans and vegetables.
Made since the 1700s, natto miso contains a large proportion of soybeans that when fermented gives it the shiny appearance of the famous Japanese fermented soybeans called 'natto'. Natto Miso is neither a true miso or true natto but a condiment used like natto and fermented like miso.
Eden Natto Miso is made of steamed whole soybeans and barley that are inoculated with seed koji Aspergillus oryzae that is aged and mixed with pieces of chopped ginger root, slivered and mineral rich kombu sea vegetable, barley malt syrup, shoyu, and salted water. It naturally ferments in large kegs for one to three months. The barley malt and short fermentation period make Eden Natto Miso sweet, and the addition of kombu and ginger give it a distinctive flavor.
Many commercial varieties of natto miso are made using genetically engineered koji enzymes and genetically engineered soybeans that are defatted using the caustic petroleum derivative, hexane. These commercial varieties often contain refined sugar, colorings, and other additives. Eden Natto Miso is free of preservatives, refined sugars, and all other additives. It is fermented in the traditional manner.
Use Eden Natto Miso at the table as a condiment that is delicious on cooked whole grain or pasta. Great spread on toast or any Eden cracker. Unlike our other miso, natto miso is not used in miso soups.
Eden offers a large selection of food in bulk sizes for food service professionals and families. Eden Natto Miso in a 22 pound keg is an excellent value for health conscious chefs who appreciate quality, nutrition, safety, and superb flavor.

What if I told you that it might be time to fire your personal trainers? Don't get me wrong. Personal training is a lucrative part of any fitness club, so I'm not suggesting that you get rid of your personal training program. However, your trainers may be holding your members back from reaching their full potential. If your members are not getting what they pay for when it comes to personal training, it is time to fire your trainers.
Are your trainers dressed like they themselves are working out or like they are actually working? Do your trainers use medicine balls, foam rollers and resistance bands with their clients or is it still bench press Monday? As an owner or manager, you should be asking these questions.
In this economy, every dollar counts. When individuals make conscious decisions to spend money on personal training, they expect and deserve a value-added benefit. Your trainers should dress like professionals, not like they are about to work out themselves. No complaints and no excuses. It is not necessary to be in sweatpants and T-shirts to demonstrate an exercise. If they disagree, fire them. If I can demonstrate how to dead lift or perform a kettlebell swing in my slacks and polo, so can your trainers. A professional demeanor and professional appearance promotes confidence, both in the trainer and the client. It's a natural reaction.
If your trainers are still doing bench press and barbell curls with their clients, fire them. Your clients should be getting up and moving around. It is your trainer's job to make workouts fun. If your clients are having fun while they are sweating, they will sing your praises and will be more likely to continue. It is all about retention. Give them results and they will stay. As soon as they get bored, you have lost them.
Clients and personal trainers who work together for some time often become close friends. Clients trust trainers—they almost worship them. They may hang out together on the weekends and may even invite each other to special events. Gifts for holidays and birthdays are not unusual. Though this can be a great benefit for trainers, it can be devastating for owners and managers. Make sure your trainers are not crossing the line of professionalism by accepting gifts, vacations or money. When this happens, clients may begin to feel entitled to special treatment, like not being charged for a last-minute canceled session.
In addition, once gifts exchange hands, the relationship dynamic changes. Trainers who leave a club to go to another one often take their clients with them. In addition, if you need to fire a trainer, you risk angering the loyal client, who may speak ill of you to other potential clients and leave your gym.
When your trainers go on vacation, their clients should know how to work out on their own. If not, fire your trainers because they are not truly educating their clients and providing an all-encompassing approach to fitness. Many trainers want their clients to know just enough so that the trainer remains more valuable and indispensable. Owners and managers should want the opposite. The more knowledgeable the clients, the better results they achieve. When clients are successful, they will spread the word, which means more clients for your training department.
All training clients should be cross training. Members who are involved in many areas of the facility will stay longer. Spin classes and boot camps are great ways to get your members involved in your club because they will meet more members, potentially make more friends, feel connected and be more invested in the club, which will make it harder to leave.
If your trainers are not giving it their all when they are training, fire them. They are taking money from your members and not giving the proper service in return. If one of your trainers is slacking off, pull them aside and ask them why they got into this industry. If the answer is not "to help people," let them go. We are a customer service business. Our job is to help people achieve their physical fitness potential. If this is not happening in your facility, it is time to "reload" with new trainers.

Where next for the US dollar?
We analysed data stretching back to 1975, looking at the trade-weighted dollar before and after the Federal Reserve (Fed) starts the process of raising rates.
As shown in Chart 1, the performance of the dollar in the current interest rate cycle has been very different to the past.
This time, the US dollar rose close to 20% in the 24 months leading up to the first rate hike. Historically, however, the dollar has depreciated steadily in the run up.
Post the rate hike, performance is more mixed. On average, the trade-weighted dollar weakens by around 1.6% 12 months after, with four out of the eight cycles examined seeing negative trade-weighted dollar performance.
Meanwhile, 24 months after the hike, the average performance of the trade-weighted dollar across cycles has historically been positive, although this result is skewed by the 1980s cycle, in which the dollar was particularly strong.
How will the dollar perform in this cycle?
With rates in the US expected to rise versus a host of other major central banks that are keeping rates stuck at zero, one argument states that increasing uptake in the gradually more attractive long US dollar carry trade should mean the dollar will continue to perform strongly.
To test this, we looked at the relationship between the US/Germany interest rate differential and the performance of the dollar/euro exchange rate in past cycles. As a proxy for interest rates, we used US and German 3-month bills.
The spread between the two is rebased in absolute terms to equal zero when the Fed first hikes. Therefore, when the spread is positive, US rates are higher than German rates compared to when the first hike in the cycle took place.
On the whole, the impact of interest rate differentials on dollar movements in past cycles looks to be stronger before the first rate hike than after it.
This is particularly the case in the 1994 and 1999 hiking cycles, where initially rates and currencies moved together before
a pronounced divergence occurred when the Fed finally hiked.
This suggests that other factors apart from purely carry may be at work. These include changing expectations of future interest rate differentials and capital flows on the expectation of foreign asset performance.
History therefore suggests that the dollar is perhaps not set for a path of continued strength, even if interest rates between the US and Europe diverge further.

Weather disrupts travelers' plans
Dozens of flights cancelled in Chicago Friday
CHICAGO – Holiday travelers who were delayed by the snowstorm in the Midwest Thursday are arriving at their destinations Friday.
The number of flight cancellations in Chicago was in the dozens Friday after hundreds of cancellations the day before.
The delays forced one couple to spend their 17th anniversary at the airport.
"All the flights to Chicago were cancelled, just cancelled. So we were sitting there and they were calling us back and forth, putting us on different planes. It was just a nightmare," said Nicole Turner.
Flying from St. Louis to Miami, the winter storms detoured the Turners through five different states, delaying them for more than two days.
Newark is the most recent area to experience the bad weather this week.
Wind gusts Friday morning delayed flights in and out of the New York area by two to three hours.
Shakina Jones was delayed for two hours.
"Oh, it was cold. It was snowing. It was windy, rainy -- snow and rain mix," said hones.
By Friday morning, airlines cancelled more than 500 North American flights, according to FlightStats.com. As the storm moves east, more delays and cancellations are expected. The flights that make it will be loaded down with folks like the Turners, who've been bumped and re-routed.

A Chance Meeting
It isn't every day that a Jew who asks a question from a rabbi thousands of miles away online gets a chance to meet that rabbi face to face. But that is exactly what happened some years ago to Rabbi Mordechai Becher who had spent considerable time answering questions presented to Ohr Somayach's "Ask the Rabbi" e-mail service. On a lecture tour in South Africa, Becher took some time to enjoy a barbecue picnic together with the late Rabbi Gavriel Klatzko of Ohr Somayach's
"My only connection to my Jewish faith," confided one of the young men, "was the question I occasionally asked a rabbi by email." When they both realized that the rabbi he had turned to was standing right in front of him, a bond was formed. The young backpacker eventually became observant, and Rabbi Becher, today a world famous lecturer for "Gateways", attended his wedding.

MWC 15 Special
Indeed, the Samsung SGH-i750 is available world-wide for a fairly long time already but it was just recently announced and launched in Germany.
Reason enough for Marc from PDA News [DE] to have a close look at the German version and the first part of his review is now up and available:
Stylish design, good build quality, a gorgeous screen, text input through a hardware keypad, multimedia and connectivity options galore, Samsungs SGH-i750 Pocket PC Phone has a lot to offer in a strikingly small package. But it's the built-in 2 MP autofocus camera that lets it clearly stand out of the crowd. Read on, why the triband GSM/EDGE device is a good choice for business men and gadget lovers alike, even though it runs on the already outdated Pocket PC 2003SE operating system.
Well, the Windows Mobile 2003SE would keeps me away from this device, nevertheless all the other features are still pretty up-to-date so I wonder why Samsung hasn't given the device the latest OS to make it compatible to currently available Windows Mobile Pocket PCs? Especially since it costs hefty 779 Euro without a carrier subscription.
Cheers ~ Arne

Participating in research allows people to contribute to medical knowledge and offers the opportunity to receive cutting-edge care.
Research is the only way to improve prevention, detection, and treatment for cancer. HBOC clinical trials are in urgent need of participants. Until these studies are completed we will not see FDA approval for targeted therapy, better screening, or safer prevention.
Our 4-point plan will help us achieve this mission:
The ABOUT Patient-Powered Research Registry is the research registry built by and for the HBOC community. Our registry will allow us to reach more people with information about clinical trials.
We need community involvement to build and guide our network. We are training members of our community to participate in research advocacy. Learn about our FRAT program and how you can get more involved.
To accomplish our mission, we are partnering with other organizations who are committed to helping us reach our research enrollment goals.
FORCE has a database of current studies enrolling HBOC patients and a list of featured research studies.
Become a FORCE Research Advocate
The FORCE Research Advocate Training (FRAT) Program is a basic educational course aimed at preparing people to become engaged in research advocacy on behalf of the hereditary breast and ovarian cancer community.
The goal of the ABOUT network is to enroll as many Americans with HBOC risk as possible into our research registry and to collect information and real world health care experiences that can be used along with information from medical records to improve care for people with HBOC.

Entrepreneur and multimillionaire Jesse Biter said the organization he recently created in hopes of affecting the coming City Commission race has received roughly $35,000 – $15,000 of which he loaned the group.
Biter started reporting the finances of the electioneering communications organization, called Biter ECO, last week. He faces $1,650 in fines for failing to file his first campaign finance report on time.
The majority of the $35,000 in contributions went to AnswerNet, a company that conducted voter surveys, Biter said. He said the company wrapped up calls today and the Biter ECO has not decided whether to continue with the surveys.
Mayor Suzanne Atwell, Susan Chapman and Richard Dorfman are running for two open commission seats in next Tuesday's race. Last month, Biter, who does not support Chapman, created the Biter ECO and said he wanted to let people know what Chapman stands for.
While donations of more than $200 to candidates are prohibited, the ECO allows large contributions to affect the city race, though how the organization can spend the money is primarily limited to media ads and phone calls.
Since the ECO is trying to influence the city election it must file finance reports with the city, according to local and state elections officials. Biter said his attorney initially told him he only had to file with the state.
The Herald-Tribune reported on the situation and Sarasota Auditor and Clerk Pam Nadalini sent Biter a letter on April 30 notifying him of filing requirements.
The next day his treasurer, Abby Dupree, replied with a report of contributions and expenditures from April 11 to 19. The only contribution was Biter's $15,000 loan.
"We are filing this report in an abundance of caution because the ECO had limited activity prior to April 20, 2013, which may or may not be reportable," Dupree wrote.
It was reportable. The city will send a letter notifying Biter of the $1,650 in fines he must pay for filing late, said Lori Rivers, a coordinator in the auditor and clerk's office.
After the late filing, Biter sent an email (paid for by the Biter ECO) with a link to the finance report, which is posted on the city's website.
"I have nothing to hide," Biter wrote. His email also outlined his organization's view for the city and said, "Suzanne Atwell and Richard Dorfman support the same vision for a vibrant downtown. I will continue to support candidates that are interested in Sarasota's vibrancy."
Wednesday is the final finance report deadline for candidates and organizations before next week's election.
Biter said his organization will file their report in the morning. Since his last finance report, Biter said he has reached out to others and Wednesday's report will show about $20,000 from other donors.
"I don't want to be the guy who comes in and writes the big check. I want to prove that there are a lot of people who agree with our vision and direction for Sarasota," Biter said.
Entrepreneur Biter faces fine for late finance report filing
Entrepreneur and multimillionaire Jesse Biter said the organization he recently created in hopes of affecting the coming City Commission race has received roughly $35,000 – $15,000 of which he loaned the group.

We understand that when you put your hard earned money down, you expect your RV to deliver as promised. That's why "Building Adventures for the Long Haul" is more than just a slogan here at Keystone; it is our number one mission each and every day. It's the reason today we are honored to say we have nearly one million Keystone owners out on the open road who we consider family.

Virtualization and Virtual Machines (VMs)
For some reason, I feel that I should leave the definitions to wikipedia and only quote it so that is what I am going to do:
Virtualization (of software and hardware platforms) is really nothing new and has been around since..well the the real thing itself: computers. There has been several implementations of different kind ever since and I are two main reason they exist and grow:
- Developing/testing software for hardware that you do not have. This makes virtualization softwares were attractive for consumer product manufacturers to be able to start the development of software soon after the plans for a particular product are finalized since it takes some time before they can manufacture enough prototypes for every developer and tester involved.
- Portability: In a typically VM setup, installation is done on drive images (files) rather than actual drives/partitions, which means you can carry or send your (virtual) machine anywhere you like.
- Ability to use multiple operating systems at the same time: Many Linux and Mac OS X users often need to run applications that are only available for windows and vice versa. Dual-boot is one solution to this issue but that implies you will only be able to use one OS at a time.
- Partitioning of a single host to multiple servers: Consolidation of many servers to a single host is a popular use case these days, done internally in many companies and also by hosting services. aka "The Cloud".
Qemu + KVM
There are many such solutions out there, both Free and non-Free out there but the solution of our choice is Qemu. This awesome virtual-machine manager (a.k.a hypervisor) combined with Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) and built-in virtualization extensions in modern CPUs is capable of providing such a virtual environment that puts the real thing to shame.
Qemu+kvm might be a very powerful tool, its still very much a power-user tool. For example you have to use long commandlines with different switches to use Qemu effectively. Worry not! There is another set of tools to help there:
While Qemu+KVM might be an awesome solution, its still one of the many hypervisors out there and with some many people pouring into the virtualization industry, you can be assured that there will be a better alternative available sooner or later. libvirt not only abstracts you from hypervisors but also adds some really nice features on top of that:
- Manipulation (creation, deletion and modification etc) and monitoring etc of virtual machines on remote hosts, securely.
- Live migration of virtual machine(s) from one host to another.
Neither libvirt, not virsh are tools that an end-user could be expected to use. Thats where virt-manager comes into picture. It basically provides the same functionality as virsh but unlike virsh, its designed for end-users and hence has a very user-friendly graphical user-interface. Here is some screenshots that should give you a good idea:
SPICE in simple words can be described as very smart remote-access enabler for virtual machines. Oh wait, I was supposed to leave definitions to wikipedia:
SPICE was originally developed by Qumranet as a proprietary solution. Red Hat acquired Qumranet in 2008 and in December 2009 Red Hat open-sourced the protocol.
Now with definition and history lesson taken care of, lets talk about the real thing: tools. SPICE, the implementation is divided into 3 main parts:
This is the tool that end-user should be concerned with. It provides a view into the guest OS (very much like the popular VNC).In the past there was only one SPICE client called, spicec. Due to various reasons (not embeddable, too low-level etc), it was deemed necessary to create a better client-tool. So for the past some months, our team has been working on a SPICE client Gtk+ widget called (surprise suprice) spice-gtk and helped in integration of it in vinagre (the GNOME remote-desktop client). I still haven't used (or even built) spicec but from what I've been told, vinagre+spice-gtk are already much better than spicec in functionality so I guess I haven't missed anything. Wait! Why am I telling you all this when I can just show you?
There are certain important tasks that spice-server needs to perform that it can not do so itself as it runs on the host rather than guest. A good example is copy/cut and paste between client's host and guest desktop. For this reason, vdagent exists. Its a helper that runs inside the guest (and as such is installed from the guest). So making the copy&paste possible, it proxies the appropriate events to/from the SPICE client from/to guest windowing system through spice-server.
Whats wrong with VNC?
VNC has been around for a while now and in modern unix world, its considered as the remote desktop solution so its natural for people to ask: why create yet another solution for the same problem? The reason is that SPICE protocol has been designed to be very efficient on bandwidth usage and to satisfy the needs of a virtualized environment [1]. Recall QXL I mentioned above? QXL is handled/implemented as something called paravirtual devices in SPICE. Its probably appropriate to quote the related wikipedia definition here first:
The end
I am really not good at explaining things so I'm sure I must have left-out some necessary details but worry not! We have a team of awesome hackers who can always help you with any issues related to SPICE. You can reach us either through our IRC channel or mailing-list. If you are attending the Desktop Summit 2011 in Berlin, you are in luck cause not only there is a talk about 'Integrating virtualization into the desktop' but also some of us will be attending the full duration of the conference so you can come and discuss with us in person.

AngExpress necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 36 diseños de 16 diseñadores freelance.
We are a website company that caters to Canadian businesses. We offer a fully designed and optimized website and marketing package , which will be completed within 7 days. Which is why we emphasize the word EXPRESS. We are looking for someone to desing our LOGO and also possibly stay on with us as a logo designer for our clients if you are intrested. We also need some ad's for the yellow pages phone book and could use you for that if your intrested as well.
We are trying to stress the fact that we are Canadian, and that we get it done fast "express" and that we are professional and clean.
Canadian companies (real stores) that want a website and marketing, and want it fast and easy. People that don't have time to make a website and want it done for them, and want it to be simple and straight forward. So the logo needs to be simple and straight forward.
We have some examples we will attach, which we like the idea of.
We are working with the colors = red, white, black and grey.
Would Like the Logo to be based around 7DayWebsiteExpress.ca as the focal point and would like the font and color of font to vary, so that "Express" is bold, so possibly make "express" in red and vary the rest so it is easy to read and establish the different words in the sentence.
We require there be a canadian aspect, so I was thinking a canadian maple leaf with legs running, and have speed lines coming out from behind the running leaf (showing its going fast, or express) or have some sort of flame coming out behind it.. maybe underline the while text (site name)
Maybe have 7DAY be larger than WebsiteExpress which could be a different font or color. Be creative, thats why we need you,, we cannot think of one on our own!!!
Im even open to 2 lines where the top will say 7DAY and the 7 will be larger and then on the 2nd line is will say Website Express but the "website express" will start right beside the bottom of the 7 so it ends up looking like an indent.. i forget what this is called!
MAIN POINTS .. one sentence , plain, no box or background image, must be easy to read, no odd font or old english handwritten looking font, must include canadian aspect, must stress that it is fast or express.

Bradford have been reinstated into this season's FA Cup after successfully appealing against their expulsion for fielding an ineligible player.
The Bantams were thrown out of the competition by the FA because they did not receive written permission in time to play Newcastle loanee Curtis Good in the second-round meeting with Brentford last month, which finished 1-1.
But following today's appeal, Bradford say the FA has decided to fine the club and allow them back into the competition.
A Bradford statement read: "Bradford City FC can confirm that today director of operations David Baldwin attended an appeal hearing with Ben Jones, Partner at Petherbridge Bassra solicitors and Mr Simon Csoka QC of Carmelite Chambers.
"The appeal was heard before the FA Appeal committee at Wembley Stadium in relation to the matter of the club's expulsion from this season's FA Cup with Budweiser competition.
"We can confirm that on appeal the club has now been reinstated back into the FA Cup competition and has been fined for its actions.
"We deeply regret our breach of the rules and are currently reviewing our procedures to ensure no repeat of this situation.
"Therefore the original replay of the club's FA Cup second-round tie at Brentford FC, scheduled for Tuesday, December 18 2012, will now take place at the Bees' Griffin Park stadium."
The FA confirmed the club have been fined £1,000 after the appeal board decided the original punishment was "excessive" for what amounted to an administrative error.
An FA statement read: "Firstly, the board accepts that it is reasonable to expel a club where they have fielded an ineligible player, therefore, that element of the appeal was dismissed.
"They then turn to the issue of excessive penalty and are drawn to the fact that the effect of any decision and sanction needs to be appropriate, proportionate and fair.
"Taking into consideration that the immediate disclosure before the game, the fact that the player was for all other intents eligible and was only barred through a genuine administrative error of notification, that no consideration had been given to an alternative option that the decision was in the appeal board's view excessive.
"Therefore, that element of the appeal was upheld and the decision varied.
"The club are reinstated to The FA Cup Competition and are fined £1,000."

Winds of change are blowing across the central Illinois economy. Companies such as SMF, a machine shop in Minonk with 120 employees, are finding that the growth of wind energy in the state not only creates an environmental benefit, but also provides jobs.
Winds of change are blowing across the central Illinois economy.
Companies such as SMF, a machine shop in Minonk with 120 employees, are finding that the growth of wind energy in the state not only creates an environmental benefit, but also provides jobs.
"We're in our third year of making parts for the wind industry. We still do work for Caterpillar and other fabrication work but now we're hooked up with all the main wind players," said Paul Halvorson, SMF's chief financial officer.
The future looks downright gusty with a federal mandate to have 20 percent of the nation's power by generated by wind by 2030, he said.
"About 4,000 to 5,000 (wind) towers are now going up nationally every year. That's expected to increase to 15,000 towers annually, starting next year," said Halvorson, whose firm supplies anchor rings for wind power companies throughout the United States and Canada.
The move toward wind power also involves area companies such as Blackshor Services, an area business involved in landscaping, snow removal and tower installations for 30 years. Earlier this year, Blackshor became a dealer of wind turbines, offering a variety of models for home and businesses.
"When the turbine produces more power than the house needs, the meter spins backwards, creating a credit that can be used later," said Kim Blackburn, wife of Blackshor owner George Blackburn.
Blackshor offers three models of turbines, ranging in price from $16,000 to $95,000, she said.
A new tax credit now helps defray 30 percent of the total installed cost of the turbine, said Blackburn.
The wind energy industry in Illinois is projected to generate $1.9 billion in economic benefits for the state over the next 25 years, according to Illinois State University's Center for Renewable Energy.
Wind power not only generates energy but jobs for the state, according to the center, adding that wind generation projects in Illinois through March of this year have accounted for 6,000 full-time jobs with a total payroll of over $300 million.
"There are opportunities for businesses, despite the worst recession since the 1930s," said Bob Weinstein, president of the Illinois Manufacturing Extension Center at Bradley University, one of 11 offices around the state that help Illinois manufacturers stay competitive.
"One of the most difficult challenges facing companies these days is diversification, going after new markets with new products," he said.
A recent seminar on wind-power opportunities drew more than 200 people, said Weinstein.
"Some companies learn that (wind power) is not for them. In this economy, companies can't afford to make unwise investments," he said.
Companies need to find out if they can get in on so-called second-tier manufacturing, providing parts to another manufacturer, said Weinstein.
The potential is there for those that can make the adjustments, he said. "The market for (wind energy) manufacturing is expected to grow 10 to 15 times what it is now. Much of what's now produced overseas will be manufactured here," said Weinstein.
Grants are available for businesses that look to make changes, he said.
Small and mid-sized companies can get more information on competitive grants at the Business and Financial Resources Workshop being offered by the Procurement Technical Assistance Center at Illinois Central College from 8 to 10 a.m. Sept. 1 at the Peoria NEXT Innovation Center, 801 W. Main St.
State officials said $100 million in federal stimulus money is now available that will allow Illinois to develop new programs and expand current programs in order to fund energy projects.
Applications for many of the programs are due by Oct. 1. "There's new money for green energy with grants up to $5 million," said Weinstein.
IMEC will host another wind-power conference in conjunction with Western Illinois University in Macomb on Oct. 22, with more programs to follow, said Weinstein.
"There are other opportunities and growing markets for manufacturers (along with wind power). Nuclear power is beginning to re-emerge. Each nuclear plant represents an $8 billion construction project so there are a lot of opportunities for suppliers," he said.
Other growing fields include medical instrumentation and the defense industry, said Weinstein.

The war between UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones and longtime contender Chael Sonnen began on Twitter, but UFC president Dana White revealed on Tuesday that it will end in the Octagon, as the two rivals will compete as coaches on The Ultimate Fighter's 17th season and then face each other in an April bout at a site to be determined.
White broke the news today to Lance Pugmire of the Los Angeles Times.
Originally scheduled to make his return to 205 pounds against Forrest Griffin this December at UFC 155, Sonnen will now begin filming TUF 17 later this month. Jones, nursing an arm injury suffered in his UFC 152 win over Vitor Belfort, will also be on the sidelines until the Sonnen bout in April.

In 1997 the Magyar Nemzeti Bank /Central Bank of Hungary/ started to issue a new series of forint banknotes. The old notes issued from 1946 were replaced by the new series throughout the next few years.
The front of each banknote bears the portraits of outstanding politicians of Hungarian history, on the back there are related historical scenes. The composition of the new banknotes has been upgraded and, by virtue of their equal sizes (154 x 70 mm) they bear a close resemblance to modern European banknotes, which have preserved their traditions. Every denomination is printed on new banknote-paper, containing watermark, security thread and fibres, by using advanced technology and a number of safeguards.
The 1000 forint note was recalled from circulation, and replaced by a new version with a copper coloured holographic metal stripe at 10 April 2006, while graphic and other elements remained unchanged. The 200 forint denomination was withdrawn from circulation at 16 November 2009. Since 9 September 2008 the 10000 forint note has been printed with yellow circles, to improve protection against photocopying. All other denomations have these yellow circles from 15 April, 2009.
The series of the actually circulating banknotes has been enlarged by the issue of the 2000 forint commemorative banknote (in year 2000, to the occasion of the 1000th anniversary of the foundation of the Hungarian state) and in 2006 by the commemorative version of the circulating 500 forint note devoted to the 50th anniversary of the 1956 Hungarian revolution and war of independence. Both are different to the usually circulating ones with the same face value, issued in a remarkably lower issue limit.
More information about the new series of banknotes actually circulating can be found on the Magyar Nemzeti Bank website.

Sixteen-year-old Victoria scientist Ann Makosinski was a guest on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon Wednesday night, showing off the body heat-powered flashlight that won her top prize at the 2013 Google Science Fair.
In a segment called 'Fallonventions,' the teen scientist demonstrated her flashlight. Fallon responded by showing Makosinski his own creation, the Granola Bowla, an edible cereal bowl.
"[Your invention] is good and everything, but you can't eat it," Fallon told Makosinski.
Since winning the Google Science Fair last year, Makosinski and her invention have received international attention. The Grade 11 student at St. Michaels University School in Victoria was named one of Time magazine's 30 under 30 for 2013 and has given two TED Talks.
In a YouTube video explaining how she created the flashlight, Makosinski said she became interested in the area of "harvesting surplus energy" after learning "humans are a great source of untapped thermal energy."
To produce enough power to turn on LED lights in the flashlight, Makosinski used four Peltier tiles to convert a temperature difference to electricity. If one side of the tile is heated by a human hand and the other exposed to cool air, electricity is produced.
As Makosinski told Fallon, she invented the flashlight after learning a friend in the Philippines was having trouble in school because she had no light to study by at night.
The teen appeared in Fallon's third episode since taking over as Tonight Show host.
"I'm going to work for her one day — I can feel it," Fallon said after she finished her segment.
Makosinski was one of three young inventors on the show. All were given $5,000 to put toward their education.

Since 1997, communities across the country have come together on November 15 to celebrate America Recycles Day. Join USAgain in raising environmental awareness beyond November 15 while diverting textile waste from landfills.
- What is the America Recycles Day challenge?
Throughout the month of November 2014, all participating schools will compete to collect the most textiles for recycling. The top five collecting schools will win cash prizes and all schools will raise funds for every pound collected. By hosting a USAgain collection bin on your property, your school is offering students, faculty and the local community an eco-friendly and convenient way to recycle clothes and shoes while your school earns cash per pound of textiles collected.
- What can my school win?
The top five collecting schools will win $1,000, $750, $500, $250, and $100, respectively. All participating schools will raise funds per pound collected.
- Will my school have to sell anything in order to raise funds in this program?
No. USAgain textile recycling fundraisers and contests don't require any work from your school, parents or students.
- Does my school need to sign-up or register?
Yes. But if your school is already hosting a USAgain bin, you are automatically registered for our school contests. For schools not already hosting a USAgain bin, please sign-up to have a USAgain bin placed on your property.
The deadline for America Recycles Day registration is October 30, 2014.
- How can we promote our USAgain collection bin during the America Recycles Day challenge?
Downloadable promotional materials, including posters, handouts and flyers designed to help you spread the word in your community, are available here.
- How can I see my school's ranking or collection totals?
Track your school's collection results in real-time at www.usagain.com/ard-contest-results
- When is the America Recycles Day challenge?
Mark your calendars! The America Recycles Day challenge is November 1-30, 2014.
- Why is textile recycling so important?
The U.S. EPA estimates that 12 million tons of textiles end up in the landfills every year. If collected, these trashed textiles are in a condition to be reused as secondhand clothing or repurposed for use as industrial wiping rags, insulation or furniture stuffing, among other uses.

As the weather becomes cooler and the cold and flu season peaks, it is important to look after yourself.
Australian Football players may be fit, but this does not provide protection against picking up bugs. In fact, athletes are often at a higher risk of developing colds and upper respiratory tract infections.
It has been found that the combination of large volumes of training and extremely low body fat levels can increase the tendency to pick up a cold.
Moderate exercise is actually good for our immune system but Australian Football players with heavy training schedules can experience extra stress on all body systems, including the immune system.
Colds and flu can have a negative effect on training and performance. The aim is to keep your immune system as strong as possible to help reduce the risk.
Consuming adequate vitamins and minerals is essential for a healthy immune system. This can be achieved by following some easy steps:
Many footballers, particularly at AFL level, have extremely low body fat levels and this can increase the risk of getting sick easily. Eating enough total kilojoules through regular meals and snacks and including some healthy fats in the diet helps ensure body fat levels do not get too low.
Healthy fats are found in foods such as:
These foods need to be consumed in volumes that are appropriate for the individual to ensure the right balance of good fats.
Eating well is an essential part of preparation and a balanced intake can help boost the immune system to keep you fit and healthy.
