Two late penalty goals by five-eighth Tomasso Allan have been enough for Italy to hold off a resurgent Japan and tie their two-match rugby series with a 25-22 victory in the second Test in Kobe.
The Italians, humiliated 34-17 by an impressive and improving Japan side last week in Oita, had jumped out to a 19-3 lead on Saturday just after halftime, a much-needed buffer when the visitors mounted a spirited fightback in the last quarter.
Italy had been unable to take advantage of a yellow card to Japanese lock Samuela Anise in the fourth minute, but the first half remained in their favour and they opened the scoring in the 19th when winger Tomasso Benvenuti finished off a long-range try.
Hooker and captain Leonardo Ghiraldini scored from in close to give the Italy a 12-3 lead at the break.
Flanker Jake Polledri added a third try shortly after the restart to give a dominant Italy a 16-point advantage that should have been enough to hold on.
Japan, however, stormed back after being sparked by centre Will Tupou's try, followed by another by rampaging No.8 Amanaki Mafi within five minutes to drag them back to 19-17.
Italian No.10 Allan, however, slotted two crucial penalties to give his side an eight-point cushion with a little more than five minutes to play.
Japanese fullback Kotaro Matsushima completed the scoring in the 80th minute.

While Japan might be disappointed not to have sealed a 2-0 series sweep, their second-half fightback will give the 2019 World Cup hosts confidence ahead of their clash with Georgia next week in Aichi.

The future is looking bright for an optician's building in Pontefract which has been fully restored, thanks to a grant from Wakefield Council.
An extensive programme of work at Brosgill Opticians, at 4 Market Place, has seen a new shop front installed, with repairs to the roof and front of the building, including replacement render, new windows and signage.
The Council contributed through the Pontefract Townscape Heritage Initiative (THI). The scheme which began in 2011 is aiming to preserve important historic buildings in the Pontefract Market Place Conservation Area.
Cllr Denise Jeffery, Cabinet Member for Economic Growth and Regeneration at Wakefield Council, said: "I am delighted to see this wonderful building fully restored and this programme is also helping to improve the town centre.
"The work has been carried out to a very high standard and will be enjoyed now and in the future by residents, businesses and visitors to our historic town."

Welcome to Technology for Publishing's roundup of news about women's roles, contributions, and achievements in the evolving media business. This latest installment highlights how former A+E head Nancy Dubuc plans to turn around Vice as its new CEO, EIC Claire Sanderson on what's driving the success of Women's Health, what USA Today editor Nicole Carroll is investing in, the career of advertising trailblazer Jane Maas, and more.
Vice CEO Nancy Dubuc, who replaced Shane Smith, founder of the once high-flying media startup in May, has her work cut out for her. Not only is she the first outsider to head the 24-year-old digital brand―which has been struggling to turn around both its culture and financial picture―but Dubuc (pictured) is also looking at some significant shifts, including the end of Vice's HBO show and the launch of a nightly show on Viceland. Add to that cutbacks and layoffs as part of an overall industrywide downturn. But the former CEO of A+E Networks, who Smith says has "content in [her] blood" and "is a hell of an operator," is geared up for the task. Check out Hollywood Reporter's article on how Dubuc plans to approach the challenges ahead and take the brand to the next level.
The hotness of health
Science-backed content can be hard to come by in the world of wellness―which, according to Women's Health EIC Claire Sanderson, is today's "social currency," representing a $4.2 trillion market. Those factors, she says, are what's behind Women's Health's success: With solid fact-based content, presented in an easily digestible and entertaining way, it's one of the few magazines increasing circulation―and revenue―these days. Sanderson's role reaches across the brand, from running day-to-day magazine operations to events to product licensing, feeding a network of some 33 countries that share content. In a Media Voices podcast, she details how it all works, her latest achievements, and why she expects developments like VR to change the future of wellness.
Now more than ever
Nicole Carroll, the new editor in chief of USA Today, also sees tech as the future―across journalism. One example of that is a project she headed while still the editor of The Arizona Republic, a WWD Q&A says. Called "The Wall," the investigative report incorporated augmented and virtual reality, video, podcasts, and nationwide reporting to provide a "deep dive" on the Trump administration's push for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border. "Our job is to spread the truth, and we want to do that in whatever way people want to receive it," Carroll says―no matter which side of an issue a reader is on. As such, she adds, investigative reporting is a priority, with plans to triple the size of the newspaper's investigative team. Her other areas of focus include network expansion, innovation in storytelling, and of course, continuing coverage of everything Trump.
'Mad Women'
As Adweek reports, the world of advertising has lost a trail-blazer: Jane Maas, an "industry powerhouse" often referred to as the Peggy Olson of "Mad Men" fame, passed away last week at 86. "She represents a woman who cleared the path for other women," says Kat Gordon, founder of the 3% Movement, in the article. Her career, launched in the 1960s, began as a junior copywriter at Ogilvy, where she rose to creative director and became the second female officer at the agency. Maas then became a senior VP at Wells Rich Greene in 1976, where she helped create the "I Love New York" campaign. She went on to head other prominent ad agencies and authored books on the industry, including one in 2012 that revealed what it was like for women working on Madison Avenue in the '60s. In promoting the book, the article says, Maas told interviewers that the advertising industry in a lot of ways has become harder for women today, as agencies are fighting to survive and demanding more of their talent.

Lopburi, ThailandKirsty Turner
If you are interested in the cheeky monkeys, who scamper around stealing food from tourists and causing general mischief, particularly good spots to see them are around the Khmer temple, Prang Sam Yot, and Sarn Phra Karn. All these temples are also interesting in their own right, as are Wat Phra Si Ratana Mahathat and the former royal palace of Phra Narai Ratchaiwet, which also houses the Lopburi Museum, a great place to cool down and learn more about the local history.
The people of Lopburi take good care of the city's monkeys as they believe them to be descendants of the monkey lord Hanuman. According to the holy book the Ramayana, Hanuman was a great hero who rescued Sita from her imprisonment in Sri Lanka and built Lopburi as his kingdom.
To the north of Lopburi, the famous and beautiful Saplangka Wildlife Sanctuary provides the perfect day trip for nature lovers. Also worth visiting is the nearby European Palace of Chao Phraya Wichayan, which has many interesting design and style features and some beautiful gardens in which to relax for a while.
Steeped in interesting history, Lopburi is full of temple ruins, which mainly date from the Ayutthaya period. Particularly of note are Wat Nakhon Kosa, Wat San Paolo, Wat Sao Thong and Wat Indra.
A great time to visit Lopburi is during the Monkey festival at the end of November, when the furry inhabitants are treated to a huge feast at the expense of their human neighbours, who take good care of them throughout the year.
Also look out for the King Narai Festival, which occurs in the middle of February and lasts for three days. The festival is marked which displays of local food and textiles, singing and the much anticipated traditional lakhon ling drama which, believe it or not, is performed by monkeys!

Location: Pigeon Forge, Tennessee
Don't let the rustic cabin exterior fool you: Treasured Times boasts modern amenities, comfortable spaces, and tons of ways to relax and play inside! Just a few minutes from downtown Pigeon Forge, it's convenient to the city yet peaceful among the trees. It's the best of both worlds! After exploring at The Island or riding roller coasters at Dollywood, come back to Treasured Times for soaks in the hot tub by the fireplace on the deck, relaxing nights in the luxurious master suite (with double-sided fireplace), and movie nights in the comfy living room.
This 3-bedroom, 4-bathroom cabin sleeps up to 10 guests, making it a spacious setting for a family vacation or a nice getaway with friends. Bring your bridal party for a last hoorah in nearby Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg or 2 other couples for a nice retreat without the kids. Guests in Treasured Times will easily stay entertained as they play air hockey and pool in the game room, watch movies on the large flatscreen TV in the living area, and relax with a good book with valley views from the deck.
Under 2 miles from downtown Pigeon Forge, you are within minutes of hundreds of attractions, restaurants, and shopping! Take the kids for a day of miniature golf and laser tag at LazerPort Fun Center before taking the short trip back to the cabin for lunch, hot off the outdoor gas grill. In neighboring Gatlinburg, visit the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the most visited national park in the U.S., and check out downtown attractions! Ride the Aerial Tramway to Ober Gatlinburg for incredible views after perusing the country's largest group of independent artisans in the Great Smoky Arts & Crafts Community of Gatlinburg. It even features motorcycle-friendly parking!
Living Area
Gather in the spacious living room and take a seat on one of three cushy couches and chairs to begin catching up with friends and family as soon as you walk through the door from your trip into the Smokies. Let laughter float to the lofty wooden ceilings as you reminisce on old, funny stories and begin discussing plans for daily excursions to nearby Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.
In the evenings, use the extra space to play interactive games like Cranium or enjoy a feature film screening for the kids in front of the big flatscreen TV mounted on the mantel. Kick your feet up on the couch and read your current book obsession in the rustic cabin atmosphere while your morning coffee cools on the nearby wooden end table. Squeeze in a nap in between morning and evening outings in the soft lighting drifting down from the loft windows that accent the tall stone fireplace. Or unwind and take advantage of the wireless internet!
The symbiotic relationship between modern living and rustic mountain life meet for a beautiful, fully loaded kitchen space you will love using during your Smoky Mountain vacation. The sleek black appliances set into polished wooden cabinetry are highlighted by modern track lighting to set the stage for your in-cabin meal preparation. Early risers can use the coffeemaker to get a morning jolt while early morning hikers can blend a smoothie before hitting the trails.
It's well equipped for making meals for the group, or you can just order some pizza or takeout and enjoy a laid-back night eating and hanging out around the cabin. When you don't want to get out of the cabin, be sure you have snacks and drinks on hand!
Dining Area
Picnic indoors while eating at the beautiful log-bench dining set in Treasured Time's dining area. Simpler times under the warm lighting of the chandelier and hearty cabin meals are some of the best memories to be made with friends and family while staying in the cabin. Play card games and laugh until it hurts around the wooden dining table before heading to bed.
Dine together with everyone in the shared open spaces of the dining and living areas if there happens to be more than 6 guests. While the kids watch a movie and slowly drift to sleep in the living area, share a bottle of wine with friends after dinner and continue laughing and conversing.
The spacious bedrooms and comfy log beds provide plenty of rest during late evenings and mornings after days of exploring Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Use the large indoor jetted tub next to a stone fireplace in the master suite of the main floor to take a quiet bubble bath with scenic views through the windows. Settle into your queen or king-size bed to enjoy a little time with your favorite show on the TV provided in all the bedrooms. Let the soothing air flow of the overhead fan quietly put you to sleep after an exciting day of whitewater rafting on the Pigeon River. Easy private bathroom access from each bedroom makes showering off convenient for the entire group after an invigorating afternoon hike.
Game Room
Play a friendly game of pool while the kids take turns on the classic arcade game in the loft's game room. As your favorite sporting event plays on the nearby TV, plot and scheme over a game of chess lit by the afternoon sun coming through the windows. The high, exposed ceilings fill with conversation and laughter as everyone in the group is entertained in the spacious loft area.
Gather around the coffee table on the 2 couches of the second living area for a board game, while other guests make friendly wagers on the foosball table. Watch and laugh as the kids try to get the hang of some air hockey before heading upstairs for dinner. To avoid disturbing your sleeping partner, watch some of your latest sitcom addiction on the lower level's TV before heading to bed.
Outdoor Amenities
After a day of shopping in downtown Pigeon Forge, talk and laugh while sitting of the deck's wooden bench as dad cooks up some burgers on the gas grill. Before heading to bed, soak in the warm steam of the hot tub as the flames from the outdoor fireplace dance in the dark, cool mountain evening. Spend your morning quietly swinging with your special someone on the lower deck's porch swing before everyone else begins stirring in the cabin. While waiting for the group to organize and leave the cabin for a night out at The Island, breathe in some fresh mountain air on the deck.
Flyaway Indoor Skydiving
Want some exciting thrills without fear of heights or airplanes? Try indoor body-surfing in the giant wind tunnel of Flyaway Indoor Skydiving! Take turns mastering body control and skydiving techniques with the well-trained instructors for a fun time with friends. It also acts as a great precursor and training if you are interested in hopping out of plane someday!
SpeedZone Fun Park
Fly down 4 different go-kart tracks for a fun-filled day with the kids! In the heart of downtown Pigeon Forge, you are sure to see the big wooden coil of SpeedZone's tall go-kart tracks from a ways away. The park offers everything from the Kid's Track for ages 4 and older to the double karts of the Coaster Track where parents can ride with their younger children, ages 3 and up!
Biblical Times Dinner Theater
Enjoy a gospel message with musical Smoky Mountain flair during a 7-course meal at Biblical Times Dinner Theater! Kids and adults will love both the vibrant and traditional Christian music and hymns during the dining portion of the show. After your delicious feast, the theatrical segment of the show begins, where you and the family will watch the story of Christ come to life on the stage right before your eyes!

Phillips 66 posts higher Q3 profits across operations
Phillips 66 reported higher earnings and revenue in the third quarter, with all of its major business segments posting stronger earnings.
The Houston-based refiner on Friday reported nearly $1.5 billion in third-quarter earnings, up from $823 million last year. Revenue climbed from $25.6 billion to $29.8 billion during the same period.
Its refining business accounted for most of the growth, with earnings rising to $936 million, up from $550 million a year earlier. The company reported stronger refining margins in the Central Corridor thanks to price differences between U.S. and Canadian crude oil, though its margins on the West and Gulf coasts narrowed.
RELATED: Refiners rake in big profits — for now
The company also reported higher earnings from its chemicals business, which involves a joint venture with the oil major Chevron. Increased sales of polyethylene, a common plastic, helped boost its third-quarter profit from $121 million to $210 million despite higher feedstock costs.
Higher transportation volumes helped lift the company's third-quarter midstream earnings to $240 million, up from $117 million last year. That figure includes earnings from its equity stake in DCP Midstream, a Houston-based natural gas and pipeline company.

He sat at the bus stop waiting
Buses pulled in and drove off
Passengers climbed on or left
Not sure what he was waiting for
A girl, a friendly dog, an umbrella
Time and friends would come and go
Did he want to share their lives or
watch and gloat. Would he just wait
or participate. What was he thinking
Why did he wait. Life flowed by
Then he gave a long strong sigh
For waiting was now his habit
He'd glimpsed so much, but
Heart was numb not sure of
What he could or should do
Everyone knew him and waved
Friendly but distant they shaved
A few minutes from his routine
Waiting forever seemed obscene
But he wanted to get it right
So life slide by as he waited
Not sure what to do or when
So full of dreams but wanting
To be really sure to do it right
But time passed as it might …

Metal Gear Solid Reference In Splinter Cell Ghost Recon Wildlands
Ghost Recon Wildlands just got a new update today which adds in the iconic spy of the 2000s, Sam Fisher into the mix. If you haven't played the mission as of yet, there is a clever little nod towards Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear Franchise.
At the end of the mission Sam meets up with the Ghost's trusted provider, Karen Bowman, the two proceed to talk about how they don't make agents like him anymore. He then references "this other guy" who was into "Army infiltration" and wore a "bandana or something". Bowman responds that the man finally retired, to which Fisher replies, "Then it's only me…".
It's a pretty great reference, especially considering the whole outcry about the Metal Gear Survive.
In other news, those that want the dialogue experience in the flesh, the game is actually running for free this weekend, read more about it, here.
Looking for something to play? Ubisoft's open-world shooter, Ghost Recon Wildlands will be free this weekend. Separate from its usual five-hour trial, this free weekend event covers all platforms, giving players a chance to try out the game on either PS4, Xbox One, or PC. The free weekend starts Thursday, April 12, It will be playable through Sunday, April 15th. Players will have access to the core campaign, the Ghost War PvP, and all the upcoming Special Operation 1 DLC content.

About German
The dialects subject to the second German vowel shift during medieval times are regarded as part of the modern German language.
As a consequence of the colonization patterns, the Vlkerwanderung, the routes for trade and communication (chiefly the rivers), and of physical isolation (high mountains and deep forests) very different regional dialects developed.
These dialects, sometimes mutually unintelligible, were used across the Holy Roman Empire.
As Germany was divided into many different states, the only force working for a unification or standardization of German was a long process of several hundred years, in which writers tried to write and in a way, that was understood in the largest area.
When Martin Luther translated the Bible (the New Testament in 1521 and the Old Testament in 1534) he based his translation mainly on this already developed language, which was the most widely understood language at this time. In the beginning, copies of the Bible had a long list for each region, which translated words unknown in the region into the regional dialect. Roman Catholics rejected Luther's translation in the beginning and tried to create their own Catholic standard (Gemaines Deutsch). It took until the middle of the 18th century to create a standard that was widely accepted, thus ending the period of Early New High German.
German used to be the language of commerce and government in the Habsburg Empire, which encompassed a large area of Central and Eastern Europe. Until the mid-nineteenth century it was essentially the language of townspeople throughout most of the Empire. It indicated that the speaker was a merchant, an urbanite, not their nationality. Some towns, such as Prague and Budapest were gradually Germanized in the years after their incorporation into the Habsburg domain. Others, such as Bratislava (Pressburg), were originally settled during the Habsburg period and were primarily German at that time. A few towns such as Milano remained primarily non-German. However, most towns such as Prague, Budapest, Bratislava, Zagreb, and Ljubljana which later became national capitals were for the time primarily German, although they were surrounded by country that spoke other languages.
Until about 1800, Standard German was almost only a written language. In this time people in urban, northern Germany, who spoke dialects very different from Standard German learnt it almost like a foreign language and tried to pronounce it as close to the spelling as possible. Later this spoken form spread southward.
Media and written works are almost all produced in this variety of High German (usually called Standard German in English or Hochdeutsch in German), which is understood in all areas of German languages (except by pre-school children in areas which speak only dialect – but in the age of TV even they usually learn to understand Standard German before school age).
The first dictionary of the Brothers Grimm, the 16 parts of which were issued between 1852 and 1960, remains the most comprehensive guide to the words of the German language.
In 1860, grammatical and orthographical rules first appeared in the Duden Handbook.
In 1901, this was declared the standard definition of the German language in these matters.
Official revisions of some of these rules were not issued until 1998.

Making improvements to your home can sometimes raise the value of your house. However, some renovations aren't worth the cost it takes to make them. These are some of the worst offenders.
Photo by Michèl Turbin.
As personal finance blog Money Crashers details, several home improvements like swimming pools, new carpets, or built-in electronics can seem like value adds, but may not be appealing to prospective buyers. Keep in mind that whoever buys your home may not have the same preferences as you do.
Of course, if you want to make an addition to your home for your own sake, that's a different story. If you want to install an aquarium in a wall, it's worth whatever you decide. Just keep in mind that if you plan to sell your house, the next occupant may not have the same taste. Check out Money Crasher's post below for the full list.

Hi everyone,
Thanks for the posts.
It's fairly normal for your device to get warm during use, but if you are seeing a message on screen mentioning overheating, there are a few things you can do to help.
For more information visit our Support page here: What should I do if the red light is on or I see a "Your device is overheating" warning?
If you have a Roku streaming stick, I'd recommend ordering a free HDMI extender from our website and seeing if that resolves your issue.
If you are still unable to resolve the issue after following the above steps, please send me a PM with your Roku account email address, and include the serial number of the Roku device from Settings>System>About along with a summary of the issue you are experiencing. I'll be able to assist you further from there.
My Roku is also overheating and has been since out of box. Today I did notice that it remained hot hours after removing from TV, only cooling down after being unplugged from power strip. This is an electrical fire hazard issue and should be addressed and recalled or the company could be held legally responsible for fire damage. I cannot believe after months of issue with it the company has done nothing.
Had the same problem. Good customer service from Roku...bottom line, they replaced my unit with another (a refurb, but so what). Plugged it in with an extender...and the same thing. Not quite as hot as the old one, but still feels very warm, and running around 90C, which I think is high. I have two Fire Sticks and have never had that problem, so it appears to be an issue with the Roku. Like I said, the customer service was good and timely, but I would think there should be a solution to this (tho I suspect that, if it's solved, they'll be replacing a lot of units, if these and other forum postings are any indication).
I had similar problems, occasionally with Amazon Prime, consistently with 4K content (mostly from YouTube). After I received my little HDMI extender from Roku, I plugged it in an arranged it so the Roku Stick was sticking out a couple of inches away from the TV. That seems to have fixed the problem - has run for several hours with no hiccups or dire messages. My guess is that the better airflow when it is not snugged into the back of the TV keeps the temperature down below some critical threshold.
Regarding other comments about the Roku staying warm while plugged in but while the rest of the TV is off, this has to be a fundamental design problem. Hard to imagine a real good reason why they aren't able to put the stick into a very reduced power status when the target TV is turned off. But probably will require a complete redesign to fix.
Does not accept my serial number.
I have Roku stick Model 3810X. I also have a contract with Caligeeks so when I kept getting this message: "your stick is overheating---contact Roku Support" I contacted Caligeeks. Their advise was to ask for an extender which I did. But they also told me that this is a common problem with that devise and that I should request a replacement stick from Roku. I like this service and would hate to be without it. Also, don't want to reinstall the old unit!
Unfortunately the instructions don't tell you to remove the clear plastic overwrap on the device that keeps it from getting scratched in shipment. If you don't peel off this wrap (you may need to use your fingernail) the device will effectively have a nice (warm) blanket wrapped around it to help it heat up. So first thing to do would be to remove this overwrap.
You could take the plastic shell off and drill a bunch of holes in it so the heat has somewhere to escape, I had to do that with the first gen Roku and it solved all over heating issues.
Thank you for your response. I think I have fixed the problem by using the short HDMI extension that Roku will give you upon request. I bent it and crossed it over an adjacent HDMI connection so that the Roku unit had free airflow all around instead of being tucked into the back of the TV with almost no clearance for airflow. Between the extra airflow and the lack of any heat transfer from the TV itself that seems to have cleared the problem - at least I never see the "Overheting" ,essage with 4K content anymore.
Hat's off the the user community and thumbs down to the Roku engineering team, who may never have done any thermal benhmarking in a real TV
Roku overheats and their customer support sucks. I hate Roku.

I think of the title more as a generic term than a single, hard and fast recipe. That way, I can move ingredients in and out as the season progresses. First there's the rush to asparagus we've all experienced lately. English peas are just appearing, soon to give way to the first young spinach.
I made this last night with asparagus, garlic, mushrooms, and finally the juice of half a lemon to brighten it all up. Ramps are just coming into season, and a handful would be a lovely addition. I used dried mushrooms because I always have them in the pantry to use in a pinch, and also because their soaking liquid yields a rich, dark addition to what becomes the sauce. I used dried portabellas, though dried porcini would be heavenly, too.
The method couldn't be more simple, nor the results more divine. Lunch leftovers today were every bit as wonderful. Read the instructions through before starting, as it all comes together in about 15 minutes – perfect for a weeknight dinner.
Serves 2
8 ounces (half a package) dried spaghetti (I used multigrain)
A handful of spring asparagus, about 16-20 stalks (the thinner the better because they are so tender)
1/4 cup dried portaballa mushrooms (or porcini)
12 ounces boiling water
2 cloves garlic, smashed, peeled, and minced
Olive oil
Juice of half a lemon
Sea or kosher salt and pepper to taste
Parmesan cheese as garnish; grate it ahead of time as this comes together quickly
Chopped Italian parsley as garnish
- Begin heating a kettle of water to cook the pasta. Add a good 2 tablespoons sea or kosher salt.
- Measure the dried mushrooms into a heat-proof bowl. Pour the boiling water over them, then cover the bowl with a plate to keep in the heat.
- Trim bottom 3 inches off the asparagus stems. Keep them, as we're going to use them in vegetable stock in a couple of days. Cut the asparagus stalks into 1″ segments. Use a pretty diagonal cut.
- Smash, peel, and mince the garlic. Toss the peels into the same bag with the asparagus stems for stock.
- Over medium heat, begin heating an 8″ skillet filmed generously with olive oil. The olive oil is going to be part of the overall flavor profile, and besides it's one of the very beneficial fats. When hot, the oil will shimmer or ribbon. Add the garlic. Not more than 10 seconds later, add the asparagus. It will cool the pan and prevent the garlic from overcooking and becoming bitter. Drain the mushrooms, being sure to retain their soaking liquid. Add the mushrooms to the pan. Sauté the ingredients for about 2 minutes, then add the soaking liquid. Turn the heat down to medium-low.
- By this time, your pasta water should be boiling. Add the pasta. I like to use tongs to gently move it around from time to time as it cooks so that it doesn't sink to the bottom and stick together. Set a timer for 2 minutes less than the recommended cooking time. Trust me.* Set a colander in the sink.
- Meanwhile, back at the skillet, taste a pice of asparagus. It wants to be tender, but neither crunchy nor mushy. If it's there, remove the skillet from the heat. Add the lemon juice. Taste, then season with salt and some grinds of pepper.
- When the pasta timer goes off, drain the pasta in the colander. If you've cooked more pasta than you'll need for dinner**, use your tongs to lift out about how much you wish. Transfer it to a mixing bowl. Take it to the skillet. Use a large spoon to remove as much of the sauce as you wish and add it to the mixing bowl. Toss the pasta and sauce together, then serve into bowls. Garnish with Parmesan cheese and parsley. Serve immediately.
* First, a note on the pasta. As mentioned, I used multigrain. Friends, I confess that it took me some time to develop a taste for it, and once I did, I have to say I truly love it. I do not eat it because I "should." I choose to because I love, love, love pasta and could eat it 7 days a week. Except that I can't eat it 7 days a week any longer. I need to reduce my carb intake, but at the same time refuse to do so in a way that makes food a punishment. I will never give up pasta, so in order to compromise my desire with my need, I use the multigrain stuff most of (not all!) the time. It's insanely high in protein and fiber (19% and 28%, respectively, of one's daily value), and contains respectable quantities of vitamins. Does it contain carbs? Of course it does. But they're bound up in a fashion which retards their breakdown. Do I feel more virtuous by eating it? No, I feel virtuous when I vacuum my house more than once a week. But I do feel more full, more content, more satisfied with less of it, which is part and parcel of reducing one's carb intake while boosting the benefits derived from consuming them. Think of it as having your cake and eating it too.
Now, for cooking it. For cooking any pasta, for that matter. Always set the timer for 2 minutes less than the recommended cooking time on the package. Always. I taught a class recently where one of the recipes included cooked pasta. One lady mentioned that she didn't really like pasta because it was always mushy. I asked her why she cooked it to that point, and she explained that that's the way her mother always cooked it. It was a complete revelation to her that pasta didn't have to be cooked to mush. Imagine you're cooking for Goldilocks. By cooking it for two minutes (or more!) less than usual, by the time you drain it, sauce it, and serve it, it will be juuuuuuust right. Not too firm, not too soft. AND by cooking it just right, you're only adding to the satisfaction factor which permits you to eat less of something. Cake, eat.
**The Solitary Cook method of portioning. I went ahead and cooked a whole half-package of pasta. That's a lot of pasta. I used about 1/3 of it for dinner last night, and tossed it with about half the sauce. I had a big salad afterwards – great dinner. Afterwards, I transferred the cooled pasta to the same bowl I'd used to toss my dinner, and drizzled a couple of tablespoons of olive oil over, then tossed the pasta so it wouldn't stick together. I divided it between 2 ziplock bags. I pressed one flat and laid it in the freezer for another time. The other I refrigerated. I stored the remaining sauce in a mircowavable container in the fridge.
My favorite way to reheat pasta is the old restaurant method: empty the bag into a small pan of simmering water. You know how tough pasta can get when it's microwaved? Well this gets you around that. Alternatively, put it in a bowl with a good 2 ounces of water and microwave covered. Reheat the sauce in a microwave. As soon as the water comes back to the simmer, the pasta will be warmed through but not over-cooked. Transfer it to a serving bowl with some tongs, top with the sauce, garnish with Parmesan and parsley (be generous – it's a powerful anti-inflamatory), and sit down with a good book and some peace and quiet in the middle of your day.

It was raining that day and i got late from recording that night. In a short span of 5 months, i had managed to find myself a job as a guitarist and even got a place in this small music band of 3 people. I considered it my luck that Ron Outen was present in the club when i sang my first karaoke solo at the pub i was working at. He asked me to come and meet his friends, we did few songs together and in 2 days they called me to tell me they want me to join their band. "The Chains" was what we they called themselves and it was a small size band looking for gigs at bars or pubs or weddings. I was smiling thinking about my luck, when i thought i heard a crash somewhere ahead. I drove ahead and knew i was about to witness an accident. I jumped from my bike and ran towards the car that had crashed in to the bridge's pillar. That's when i saw her for the first time, lying unconscious with her head titled and blood coming from her right temple
"Hello? Hey are you okay?" i shouted as i wasn't sure if she could hear me. She smelled of alcohol and something else that i couldn't recognize.
"My scarf" she said with her eyes half-open. She wasn't hurt much but she could barely stand on her own.
"Scarf?" i looked inside the car and found nothing. I looked around and there was a green scarf lying next to the front tire. I got the scarf and then helped her out of the car. I made her sit on the pavement far from the car, as i didn't know if the car was going to explode. I was expecting it to go into flames anytime and kept telling myself it just happens in movies relax. I then went back to the car looking for a bag, a wallet or anything that would tell me her name. Her bag was stuck under the airbag and it took me five minutes before i could get it out. Everything felt like a scene from movies and i wasn't sure what to do next. I thought of taking her to a hospital but she looked okay to me, so i thought about calling someone from her phone but i wasn't sure for how long would i be able to keep us here under rain. So i went back to her
"Hey what's your name?" i asked but got no reply. She was heavily drunk and probably didn't even know that she was in an accident. Shit! Now what? Okay time for some action Dom.
"Hey Ron" i knew Ron was the only person who could help at this hour. Ron sounded sleepy and worried because he wasn't sure why was i calling him so late. I told him i needed little favour and asked him to search for phone number of a mechanic or car tolling company. After 10 minutes i had the number i needed. I made a call and asked them to pick a car from the bridge and gave them my address. I knew now what i had to do; only problem was that my co passenger was drunk. I ran towards my bike and parked it next to her. I tied the scarf to her and hung the bag over her neck and then helped her on to the bike in front of me. She sat facing me, almost sleeping with her head on my shoulders and her arms crossing my neck, while I drove slowly in the rain towards my apartment. My mind was racing with possible outcome of what I just did. You could get arrested for kidnapping or driving like this I reminded myself. The only thing that was in my favour was the fact that it was too late for me to find cops on road and my apartment was only 10 minutes away.
Once inside, I gave her my bed and bandaged her bleeding temple. I was too tired to do anything else or think of calling her friends or family. Kicking my shoes away I fell onto the couch and slept.
I woke to a phone call from Ron asking if I was okay. He was concerned about my calling him so late and asking for a car toll company.
"Yes, I'm fine" I yawned "Ron when is the next jam?" I was hoping he would say not today, but he didn't. "Sure I will be there at 6. Thanks again". I hung up and looked around and saw that she was still asleep.

sakura is often asleep,so I think "reverie" is the right title...
this wallpaper is not full of colors,but I think black and white as background-colors are enough...they also harmonize with the sakura-syaoran-picture...

Is that Reverie brush from Aethereality? I thought it looked familiar from this thumb, but I'm still not sure. =)
I agree with fawna-chan about the black space, but keep up the nice work.
Btw, what does the kanji say?
algadoreo Feb 01, 2006
Very nice balance between the two sides of the wall - my eyes were very attracted to this wall as soon as I saw it.
However, I thought the kanji on the left really killed it (for me anyways) since I can't make any sense as to what it's supposed to mean (forgive me, but I'm reading it from a Chinese perspective and I don't know why those characters are where they are... correct me if they make a complete phrase in Jap?)

It's a very cool wall! I like it ^^ and yeah, that black space...I have to agree with fawna-chan & KisekiAeon. But the wall is very nice so keep it up. :)

Erika Jayne's "XXpen$ive" Is A (Not So) Guilty Pleasure
Erika Jayne has a distinct advantage over other Real Housewives when it comes to musical side-projects. After all, she had already eked a reputation as club royalty before joining the franchise. The 45-year-old added to her impressive tally of dance hits with last year's "How Many Fucks" (her ninth chart-topper), but it was something of a disappointment in comparison to her early material. Even a glamorous, candy-colored video couldn't save the project. Happily, the plucky diva bounces back with "XXpen$ive" — an outrageous banger with a catchy chorus and high-camp lyrics.
Produced by Space Primates and co-written by singer/songwriters Jesse Saint John, Ferras & Sarah Hudson, "XXpen$ive" is equal parts Eartha Kitt and Paris Hilton. "It's expensive to be me," Erika purrs over a dub-step beat. "Looking this good don't come for free." The reality/pop star debuted the song on Watch What Happens Live last night (January 3) and you can watch the full performance here depending on your location. (It's geo-blocked outside the US). There's also a video on the way, which finds the chanteuse channeling Madonna, Pamela Anderson and Cindy Crawford. Bring it!

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.
MedKoo CAT#: 406467
Description: XR3054 is a novel inhibitor of farnesyl protein transferase (FPTase). XR3054 inhibited the proliferation of the prostatic cancer cell lines LnCAP and PC3 and the colon carcinoma SW480 and HT1080 (IC50 values of 12.4, 12.2, 21.4 and 8.8 microM, respectively) but was relatively inactive when tested against a panel of breast carcinoma cell lines. The activity did not relate to the presence of mutant or wild-type ras in the cell lines tested. In conclusion XR3054 inhibits ras farnesylation, MAP kinase activation and anchorage-independent growth in NIH 3T3 transformed with v12 H-ras. Since the antiproliferative effect of the compound is not related to the ras phenotype, XR3054 may also have effects on other cell signaling mechanisms.

Thought I had died didn't you? Well, no such luck. My service provider was hit with what I guessed to be a DoS attack. During the downtime it appeared that all sites useing my host were also down, thus the DoS theory.
My theory was off base by a bit, but the explaination for the outage raised a question in my mind. Background: My host is located in Manila, Philippines. It's data center is in Dallas Texas. There is a time differential between the two of 12 hours, 11pm 10 Feb in Manila is 11am 10 Feb. in Dallas. Here is the explaination for the 18 hour outage:
"This was due to some mis-understanding with the Accounting Dept of our Data Center (ThePlanet) with regards to our account. Apparently, the situation was exacerbated by the time zone differences…."
Am I crazy or does that sound like the host didn't pay their bill on time? If that's the case why? If they paid at the exact minute of expiration Dallas time they're shouldn't have been an interuption in service. If the host paid on the exact minute Manila time they would have been 12 hours ahead of the expiration time. Strange. No?
Meanwhile I suffered blogging withdrawal symptoms: cold sweats, fever, a twitching thumb in constant search of the "space key." And a pissed off wife because I made a pest of myself around the kitchen.
It was hell I tell ya!

Books / Arnolfini Arts
Bristol artist releases book that can only be read when warmed by human touch
A new book has been published, full of love letters and with pages that are black and unreadable unless warmed.
Requiring the warmth of the human touch, local artist Yiota Demetriou's book is a metaphor for relationships and the insecurity that comes with love and grief.
Being launched at the Arnolfini Bookshop on Thursday, August 1, To You is a collectors item, with only 150 being made.
Each copy of To You comes in a hand-packed letterbox with a "how to care for me" note, a signature of authenticity from Yiota and a message urging the reader to make themselves a hot drink.
The book is comprised of love letters based on ones Yiota once wrote to a partner and never sent. The letters, written in prose, discuss the emotions of human relationships, from grief and sorrow to love and affection.
Artist and author Yiota began writing in 2015 and 2016, through a period of depression, grief and loss. She hopes that the book is seen as much as a live entity as humans, responding to touch and only revealing secrets when warmed by human hands.
When a page is revealed, some of words appear large, while others shrink in size. A few words are simply missing, a reflection of some individuals inability to express what they feel.
In To You, Yiota, who is British-Cypriot, uses the Greek word apogymomenoto to express what she hopes the book conveys. She translates, saying it means "vulnerable emotions or experiences that are startling, raw, humiliating, naked, intimate, overtly exposed and almost unsettling in their own familiarity".
Given the time needed to examine the book and understand its meanings as a piece of art, Yiota describes it as "an object of devotion".
Although a labour of love in writing the letters inside, Yiota says "it is not about reading". Instead, it is about understanding the vulnerability of human emotions.
The book launch will take place at the Arnolfini Bookshop, where copies can be purchased. To find out more, visit www.arnolfini.org.uk/whatson/book-launch-to-you-an-intimate-reading-experience

A Palo Alto plastic surgeon is found dead in an upscale hotel room, apparently of a heart attack. But further investigation reveals that foul play has been involved.Detective Samantha Adams has been assigned to the case, and the more she digs into the matter, the more complicated it all becomes. For Dr. John Taylor has not only one wife, Deborah, a society matron, but two others: M.J. Taylor and Alice Richter. And supposedly it was all okay with Wife Number One, who had apparently helped orchestrate everything, including the schedule he had to keep in order to pull it off.
A Circle of Wives is narrated in alternating chapters by the three "wives" and the detective. The more we find out about each of the women, about the doctor himself, and then about a surprisingly unexpected complexity that surfaces later, the more we cannot wait for the mystery to be solved.
Short chapters filled with suspense kept me reading, and the characters' back stories helped create motives for each of them. So who really did kill the plastic surgeon, and how would Samantha figure it out?
This is my first novel by this author, but I'll be picking up more of her books. 5 stars.

Esra Avsar is the Technical Advisor to the Head of Amazon's Retail Business in its European HQ. Esra shares what it's like to live and work in Luxembourg and how she has charted her own path at Amazon.
Over 2,000 Amazonians are located at Amazon's European HQ in Luxembourg, where Esra is based.
"I don't feel myself as a foreigner here. I enjoy the quality of life, and the pace of the country," she says.
"The nature is amazingly beautiful and I feel I'm evolving in a strong international environment with people from several different countries and backgrounds, and this is what I truly enjoy."
Esra started her career with PWC in transactions services and corporate finance before joining the Strategy and Investor Relations teams at Turkcell, a leading Telecom company in Turkey. After achieving an MBA at INSEAD, she joined the Private Brands team at Amazon, where she worked on building a new business area and also developing a team.
Later roles meant she had to improve the customer experience for Amazon customers in partnership with diverse internal teams including different business areas, like Amazon's legal service.
Esra then played a role in developing Amazon's Turkish website.
"It was super emotional because it's my country. I was responsible for so many things: Defining the entire customer experience, managing public policy, recruiting, choosing a building and so on," she says.
"My experience at Amazon is constant learning," explains Esra. "I've been very lucky to have diverse opportunities working with smart people and very inspiring managers. I'm trying to be the enabler - finding the middle ground on how to prioritize certain projects. Everything we do is about the customer at the end of the day and I prioritize based on that."
"Diversity is crucial. It brings challenges, because people have different backgrounds," she adds. "Amazon offers so many opportunities. You can change roles and try different things. You shouldn't be afraid to get out of your comfort zone, I've changed jobs three times in five years."
Amazon is always looking for women who embrace learning and stepping outside their comfort zone.
If you want to take advantage of the many exciting opportunities at Amazon, search and apply for a job today.

Ethical Intelligence: Five Principles for Solving Your Toughest Problems at Work and Home
Emotionally intelligent people are aware of how they and others feel; ethically intelligent people know how to use this awareness the right way. I may tell you that I feel fine, but you as an emotionally intelligent person see that my face, voice, and manner suggest that I'm actually quite upset. It is through your ethical intelligence, however, that you know you ought to help me and what form this help should take. Being ethically intelligent means not just knowing what is right; it also means having the courage to do what is right. Knowing the right thing to do without putting that knowledge into practice doesn't help anyone. Ethical intelligence may be the most practical form of intelligence there is--and the most valuable. It is the key to being fully human. In Ethical Intelligence, ethicist Bruce Weinstein, a popular business ethics columnist and speaker, teaches us how to develop ethical intelligence. Weinstein shows that developing your ethics IQ will determine how successful you are in your job and in your relationships with your family and friends, and the way you feel about yourself. Ethical Intelligence is the first book that shows how to increase your ethics IQ in every area of your professional and personal life and why it is in your own interest to develop the highest IQ you can. The book has two major parts. Part One reviews the five basic principles upon which ethical intelligence rests -- principles we've all learned, but often fail to apply in our lives: Do No Harm, Make Things Better, Respect Others, Be Fair, and Be Loving. These principles of ethics are the basis of every culture, civilized society, and religious tradition. Part Two shows how to apply these principles with your coworkers and employees, your boss, your clients, your family and friends, and finally with yourself. Through numerous real-life examples and interviews with CEOs of Fortune 100 companies as well as athletes, celebrities, and political leaders -- some of whom will describe their lapses of ethical intelligence and what they learned from these experiences -- Dr. Weinstein applies the principles of ethical intelligence to all aspects of our work and home lives, drawing us back to the core of a life well-lived
