I nearly died last night
It was just past eight in the evening and I was walking around Recoletta. Molten head lights and chatting voices mixed in the springtime air like streams. Scents glided past like currents: the hungry smell of roasting meat, the inviting perfume of giggling girls, the acrid stench of a pool of vomit. I strolled the cobbled streets aimlessly, watching the crowds. Next to me rose the cemetery's brick wall, straight and towering. Suddenly I half see something move above me and look up in surprise. I am just in time to see a brick drop through the sky, graze the point of my nose and smash on to the floor in an explosion of shards. I stare at the several kilos of brick pieces littering the street and realize that if it had hit me; bits of my brain would be mixed with the debris and my blood would be staining an Argentinean street.
Then again, if the brick had actually hit me, I would surely not even have ever known.
Life is strange in that way. One worries about not smoking, about eating healthily, about not going in dangerous places (well, I don't but some people do..), and then you find your life truncated by a wobbly brick!

Ultra sweet RAW choc balls!
Now I'm not usually very good when it comes to baking or anything at all tasting good. But one day I came home from work and was craving something super sweet, so I threw some ingredients in the food processor and who would've thought, it came out delicious!!
The great thing about this recipe too is that it takes no time at all, and you don't have to be spot on with the measurements! You can change it however you like to get the texture you prefer.
Also add any other type of nuts that you like!
- 200g pitted dates (no added sugar)
- 100g almonds
- 100g raw cacao powder
- 1tbs chia seeds
- 2tbs rice malt syrup
Wazz it all up in the food processor and roll into balls, coat with shredded coconut and you're done!
Enjoy! x

Fun ways to group students

1 Fun ways to group students Tips for dividing into groups. Picture Cards: Hand out cards with images on such as strawberries, blueberries, blackberries and other such groups of things. Then get them to find someone with the card that goes with their card. Two of the same for groups of two, three of the same for groups of three etc Give each participant a card with a different kind of ball or sporting equipment picture on it. Participants find the person(s) with the equipment that matches theirs. You can use any category (i.e., dogs, cars, birds). Socks: Use a bag of clean (washed) socks each picks one then finds their pair. For larger groups pairs join other pairs by size or colour to form larger sub-groups. Ask a question: Those who say yes to one end of the room, those who say no, to the other. Body Decisions: Have everyone cross their arms across their chest. Amazingly, it almost always works out to about 50% cross right over left, and the other 50% cross left over right. Have students close their eyes and then put their hands together so their fingersare interlocking and their palms are touching each other. Have them open their eyes and look down at their hands. If their right thumb is on top, then they are one team and if their left thumb is on top then they go to the other team. Have students close either their left eye or right eye and keep it closed. Find three other people who have the same eye closed. Clusters: Have students group themselves according to attributes type of toothpaste used, favorite foods, type of vacation preferred. The sillier and more personal the categories, the better. Pick a Number: Ask everyone to pick a number between 1 and (choose the upper number depending on the size of your group). Line them up according to which number they picked. The two people at the end of the line become partners, the next two become partners, etc. Those who picked the same number become partners. If only one person chooses a particular number, ask them to choose another number.
2 Hat Sort: Drawing teams out of a hat: give each team a name, put the names on slips of paper and put them into a hat. Have each learner pull a team name from a hat. Learners join the teams whose names they pulled. Variation: Drawing team associations out of a hat as above, but each slip of paper has a word associated with the team name. For example, one team might be fruit, another might be vegetable, and another might be a sport. Slips of paper will have words like: apples, oranges, and carrots written on them. Picture Puzzles: Cut pictures from a magazine (half as many pictures as members of the group). Cut each picture in half and mix them up in a hat. Each person takes one piece and partners are those whose pieces form a complete picture. Laminate pictures of sports or sports figures,teams, fields, etc. and cut into 4 or more odd shaped pieces. The students with the matching pieces must find each other. I even have the kids come up with their own team name based on the puzzle. Playing Cards: Decide how many groups you want and what size. For example, if you would like to have 5 groups of 5 and you wanted to randomly put them into groups then get 5 Kings, 5 Aces, 5 2 s, 5 Jacks, and 5 Queens (of course you will need more than one deck of cards) and shuffle them up. Deal out a deck of cards. Divide into two groups (red or Black), four groups (suits), three groups (face cards,odds, evens) or more. Pass them out and match up the five who get the kings, Queens, etc. Decks of Old Maid cards work well for dividing into partners. Count Off With a Twist: Decide how many groups you want. Divide the number of total girls by the number of groups you want and have them count off by that quotient (for example: you have 1w girls and want four groups. 12/4+3. Have the girls count off by 3). Have the girls get into groups so there is one of each number in the group (each of the four resulting groups in our example will have three students). The resulting group is their work group. Double Simon Says: Have the group play Simon Says as you normally would (Game leader says Simon Says do this and does some motion. Then occasionally the game leader just says Do This and if anyone does that action, they are out). However, instead of being out if a girl makes a mistake, she goes into a second circle. When the groups are fairly event, stop the game.
3 Famous Pairs: For groups of 2 (pairs), put a slip on each person s back with one of a famous pair: cricket bat and ball, football and boots, hot and cold, etc. Have a cricket bat find a ball, a Football find the boots, a hot find a cold, etc. Or, have people ask yes/no questions (no more than 2-3 per person) to find out what they are, and then find their pair. Form a Band: Tell the students to divide themselves into groups of four (if you want four groups three if you want three groups, etc.). Each band must have a drummer, a guitar player, a keyboard player and singer (add more parts if you want more teams). Then they mime out their band. Then all of the drummers are in one group, all singers in another group, etc. You can create as many band members as you need groups (above example gets you four groups). Or, you can do the same with a baseball (or any sports) team. For example, ask them to be pitchers, catchers, hitters, outfielders, and hot dog sales people. This gets five groups. Stickers: Use different types of stickers or colored stars or dots. Put the stickers on your students as they enter the classroom or do it right before the activity. For example, if you want five groups with five people per group, you would select five different types of stickers to put on five sets of students. Instead of using stickers, use squares or strips of colored paper in a bag and have students reach inside the bag. Students holding the same colors would form the groups. What Colour?: Have students get into groups of four or five with others who are wearing at least one item of the same color as something they have on. Odds and evens: Ask students to count up the letters in their first name and determine if they have an odd number of letters or an even number of letters. Find three or four others who also have an even or odd number of letters in their name and form a group. On go,have people hold up anywhere from one to ten fingers. All the people holding up an even number of fingers on one side, odd fingers on the other. Magnetic strips Use magnetic strips (Craft item) that I cut in 1 inch pieces to put students names on with labels. With this done I use sheet metal boards (mine were made by a shop teacher), and place students in groups or teams without continually rewriting their names. ( color code the labels)
4 Velcro letters Give each child a letter with velcro on the back of the piece. Have the students move around the space. Once all students have a piece ask them to locate a sign which has their letter. Each sign has a word dealing with the topic of the day. For example; in a soccer lesson sample signs might read: K I C K or G O A L or F O O T. Each child then sticks their letter on a sign. A letter can be used only once. Choose the teams myself When I want to have a round robin tournament that will be ongoing for several weeks. I simply go through my gradebook, and choose the teams myself. I know my kids very well, and the teams have always been very evenly matched. Slips of paper Another way of splitting a class into groups is by writing each student's name on a piece of paper and drawing names. This gives you the flexibility of forming small groups or large groups. You decide how big the groups will be. With so many different ways to split a class into groups or teams, there is absolutely no reason to use the "captain-choice method. Another way to do slips of paper Use the roll and place all students names on a sheet of paper. Leave room for cutting out names. Then, cut out/off the names, fold, and place in an envelope. Just prior to starting the game, we 'draw'. I actually pull names from the envelope, place in front of them on the desk. Making sure all see, I then "stir" these names, then begin picking names for teams. Students are then placed at specified areas around the floor. Of course, I make a big deal out the the names I 'draw' Quotes puzzles Laminate famous quotes and cut into 4 or more odd shaped pieces. The students with the matching pieces must find each other. Index cards Use index cards with the students name on the card. I use these for taking roll also. Randomly draw the cards from the box for teams, partners, etc. If you wish to group boys and girls, use 2 boxes. You may even allow the students to draw the cards, although this takes longer. Another way to use index cards I have the large size index cards for each student. I use the index cards to keep personal records. These cards also come in handy for choosing teams. If I want to make fairly even teams in terms of ability, I pre-arrange the cards into teams, and then just call out the teams. Most of the time, I just mix up the cards in front of the students. I ask one student to tell me when to stop mixing. When he or she says stop. I call out the names in the order they came up "Put Your Foot Down" I also sometimes just make everyone take off one shoe and I then throw shoes to
5 one side of the gym or the other (works well with 4 teams and the kids always seem to have a laugh watching me toss shoes around). Whistle Numbers During warm up activities, I would ask the children to move around the gym in various ways( skipping, low to the ground, high as they can, etc). Every few seconds blow your whistle- or which ever signal you choose- the number of times you want a group of children to be. Ex) 3 blasts, groups of three. After a few rounds of this make the groups bigger and... you have your teams already made. There may be a few stragglers, put them where you see fit. Or you could "add' groups together to get the desired number of students together. 2 groups of 3 make teams of 6. Dice are Nice Each student rolls a die. The 1,2,3 make a team, the 4,5,6 makes another team. Or any combination of numbers rolled. (I have used a box for them to roll the dice in to keep it under control.) Back to back splits I will sometimes tell them to stand back to back with a partner, and then one partner is on one team and the other partner is on the other team. Sometimes when I have them pair up I will split them down the middle so that they can be with their partner. Tongue depressors Tongue depressors or paddle popsticks on which I put numbers. I shuffle the sticks around and then hold them in my hand, hiding the numbers. Each student picks a stick and then I choose the numbers which make up each team. Sometimes I use "odd and even", sometimes 1-8 and 9-16, and other times call out random numbers. Some are not happy with this method, but do realize that even when the teams are not equal, it was the "luck of the draw" that caused the situation. Color Cards For my younger students, especially 1st grade, I use cards with the color words printed on them. This was an idea that the 1st grade teachers and I thought up together. The kids needed reinforcement of their reading of the color words. I made about 8 of each color (red, green, blue, yellow, orange, purple, black, brown) and laminated them. As students come into class, I hand them each one and they need to go to the cone that is the color of their word.

By Nick Begakis (Press Release)
Angelo Ali won the 2010 Spring Backgammon Tournament held on Sunday, 21 November 2010 at the South Australia Backgammon Club. The backgammon tournament is a triple elimination event, where "all players receive an opportunity to be humiliated several times before slinking into the unlimited buy back tournament to do it all again."
Eighteen players attended the backgammon tournament including interstate Rob Decleva, who was accompanied by his wife, and some of the old timers and stalwarts emerged such as Alan Perry, Sevastos Tsoleridis, Terry Efthimiou and Les Berry, who did not play but was seen around. Due to the exceptional number of players, Plan B came into effect, so four players – Chris Benham, who was paired with Alan Perry, and the John McLean/Sevastos Tsoleridis duo, were drawn into the 32 section, where they enjoyed extra match practice.
The first round ended with Alan and Sevastos leaving for the losing section for another chance. The winner of the One Loss Group was Rob Brito, who had lost in the third round of the Main Flight to the tournament winner, Angelo Ali. Angelo later defeated Jack Clark, Terry Efthimiou, Rob Decleva, Shane McNally and Peter Geelen to make it into contention.
The winner of the Two Loss Group was Chris Benham. Chris was knocked out of the third round of the Main Flight by Rob Decleva and then defeated Sevastos Tsoleridis and Mark Stockhausen before being knocked out by Shane McNally in the One Loss Group Section. So over to the Two Loss Group went Chris Benham and he defeated John O'Grady, Rob Decleva and Peter Geelen to make it into contention.
Final Backgammon Match
The final backgammon match of the Main Flight saw Chris Benham facing Angelo Ali. It should be noted that Chris has won backgammon tournaments; he played 13 matches to make it to the final, while Angelo played only 7. Angelo needed only one additional victory to win this final. Chris, however, needed three wins.
n the first match, Angelo did not score until Chris was 6 points, where he reached the 6-2 score, and scored no more until won 9-2. In the second match, Angelo played even worse, and the match ended with the 9-1 score. Chris was the favorite to win, until the third match, in which Chris started well as before and was 4-2 up at one point. Then, Angelo equalized at 4-4. Chris 5-4. Angelo 6-5. Angelo 8-5. Chris 6-8. And in the last game, that twisted and turned, Angelo came out ahead 9-6, won the backgammon game, match and the 2010 Spring Backgammon Tournament.

Discover Sarawak Museum's architectural origins
WHEN THE ORIGINAL WING of the Sarawak Museum opened in 1891, the Gazette reported that the building was designed in the 'Queen Anne' style.
However, it is also commonly thought to have been the result of Charles Brooke's interest in French culture, either designed by the Rajah's French valet to look like a town hall in Normandy, or based on a picture Brooke saw in a French provincial newspaper.
This will be the subject of a talk by consulting architectural historian on the Old Sarawak Museum Conservation Project John Ting.
The talk hosted by Friends of Sarawak Museum (FoSM) and Sarawak Museum Department is another in the series "Afternoon @Museum" to be held on Friday, July 31 at the Sarawak Museum Department Building located near Jalan Barrack from 2.30pm till 4pm.
Titled 'The Architectural Origins of the Sarawak Museum Old Building' the talk will investigate these beliefs in the search for the architectural origins of the building, as well as investigating who was involved in its design and construction.
It will be based on a research that has been done as part of the Conservation of the Sarawak Museum Old Building Project.
In addition to completing his PhD in Architectural History, John Ting has a Bachelor of Architecture from RMIT University and is a Registered Architect in Australia.
He practices in Melbourne and has also lectured on tropical design, construction technology, and Southeast Asian architectural history at Australian architectural programs.
The talk will be delivered in English and entry is free.
It is open to the public and registration is not required.
For further details on the talk please contact Sarawak Museum Department at 082-244202.

It's tough not to judge other people's parenting — at least to their faces.
That's why, as a semi-naughty Father's Day treat, we present here a trio of dads who faced harsh responses, including getting arrested, over transgressions that aren't anywhere near as severe as what CrimeFeed typically covers.
With that in mind, we now ask you, the reading public, to review these cases and be the judge: Are these "bad dads"?

POWAY, CA — Medical marijuana attorney Jeff Lake landed in the slammer after throwing his 18-year-old daughter Olivia Lake a Playboy Mansion–themed birthday bash for which as many as 200 teens showed up in lingerie, bunny ears, and little else.
While many of the raunchy revelers, newly including Olivia herself, were of age to pose nude in Playboy, most of them were still well below 21, which became a problem as alcohol allegedly flowed freely.
Jeff Lake faced charges of violating a local social ordinance and had to pay $3,600 to cover the cost of the officers who showed up to shut down the wild time.

Poway's own Mayor Steve Vaus spoke out against the shindig, stating: "You have a party like this, and it's as though you're handing out hand grenades as party favors. It's a disaster waiting to happen."
Regardless, Jacki Lake, Olivia's mom, honored her daughter with a birthday tweet that declared her, "the baddest b—ch in town!" [Daily Mail]

CORPUS CHRISTI, TX — Questionably creative dad Juliano Parker drew the wrath of the internet — as well as a visit from Child Protective Services — after he posted pictures online that showed how he'd turned his apartment into a mock jailhouse for his three-year-old daughter Aubrey'Ella.
After complaining about Aubrey'Ella's recent discipline problems, Parker dressed her in an orange uniform, made her clean the area, fed her just meat and potatoes for dinner. Afterward, Aubrey'Ella had to sleep on a small mattress down on the floor.

Reactions to the suddenly viral photos were not laid-back. Much outrage was met by many messages of support, as well.
Following a visit from CPS agents, who did not remove the child nor call in police, Parker took down the shots and posted:
"I really regret posting that pic of my daughter on social media like that. I admit it was wrong didn't think it was gonna go viral. Smh, God knows my heart. My daughter is a good girl, just been acting out lately, and I was just trying to show her with bad behavior comes consequence. Now my daughter all over the Internet for being bad kid, but in reality, she just acting out for attention."
Aubrey'Ella herself seemingly had no comment. [New York Daily News]

LARGO, FL — Brad "Bob-Tat" Bellomo, the owner of 3rd Eye Tattoo, drew heat when he posted photos on Facebook of his four-year-old daughter Chloe using a full-size ink gun to permanently etch her (adorable) version of a strawberry onto his arm.
Bellomo's post went viral and drew more than 100,000 comments. Most praised the daddy-daughter art session, but many others expressed shock and anger, and even called the drawn-on dad some kind of criminal.

Undaunted, Bellomo told a local TV reporter:

We've hit 48,000 hits my lovely nuggets!! Merci merci to all!
And for now, Au revoir!
Ha ha only joking, I'm sure I can think of something else interesting to write about tonight....
Like how my belly is hurting...and my head....
Although the head hurt is kind of self inflicted from over indulgence on the wine, so I have no-one to blame but myself. And Mr B for topping up my glass....
Why is it that sometimes I can drink alcohol all night long and the next day I feel fine, but sometimes just 3 glasses of wine give me a stonking headache? I will never understand. Its a mystery that no lesson can be learnt from, and frankly makes my head hurt even more.
But I must dash, because I need to go and play my new favourite game. Its highly intellectual and requires expert skill and precision.
No its not chess, not even scrabble (although I am quite a fan.) No, this game is on a whole different level.
If you need to smile today, get online and buy Doggie Doo immediately.
Guaranteed laughter.

By Georgie-May Walker.
Brisbane North Cougars coach Amanda Vanderwal says her side have hit form at the right time and are ready to put out their best netball against Brisbane South Wildcats this weekend at Logan Metro Indoor Centre.
The Cougars finished second to Suncoast Lynx in the City division this year following last season's undefeated title winning heroics, but are quietly confident of going back-to-back.
"We've had to deal with a lot of people away and coming in out of the team, so it's taken us a little while to settle in to our normal rhythm," Vanderwal said.
"But the back end of the season has been good for us, so we're just hoping to take that form into finals and take one game at a time."
Vanderwal is confident her side is ready finals after overcoming two tough losses this season.
"It's quite refreshing for us not to be the top team with a target on our back. We're quite prepared to come in as underdogs and just work one game at a time, and hopefully we'll do enough to get through to the finals," she said.
"We're just going in really concentrating on our own performance and whoever we have to match up against, we'll match up against and adjust on the day.
"The character of the girls show that they're just prepared to knuckle down, put their heads down and do the jobs.
"They own up and take responsibility for where they haven't put out their best performances through the year. They are really good like that. They don't look for excuses they are just prepared to put the hard work in and make sure they get the result they want."
The Wildcats are aware of the Cougar's rich history success but are unperturbed.
"There's no doubt that if we play sixty minutes of consistent netball that we're a good chance," coach Anna Young said.
Ex-Firebirds wing defence Hulita Haukinima is ineligible for finals, but Young said the Wildcats are in shape and ready for a ferocious game against the Cougars.
"For us it's about being really gritty, just getting in there doing the hard work to cause turnovers and loose balls," Young said.
"We just need to be there to support each other. If we can treasure possession of the ball instead of trying to do the flashy stuff, I think we will go okay."

3D to be Used in PARANORMAL ACTIVITY 5
On a high from that STAR WARS trailer and need bringing down to earth? Well here's something to kill your mood, as it's being reported that 3D will be a part of the next PARANORMAL ACTIVITY movie.
In fairness, the franchise started off strongly with 2007's PARANORMAL ACTIVITY before the standard dropped with each passing film, culminating in the fairly awful PARANORMAL ACTIVITY: THE MARKED ONES that was released earlier this year. But given the success of, y'know, JAWS 3-D, FRIDAY THE 13TH PART 3: 3D, AMITYVILLE 3-D, A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 6: FREDDY'S DEAD, THE FINAL DESTINATION, SAW 3D, PIRANHA 3D (some of us do actually like that one) and the horrendous TEXAS CHAINSAW 3D (a STARBURST Shauna fave), it's only logical to give the dwindling franchise a 3D kick up the rear, right? Obviously.
So, according to Bloody Disgusting, the next outing in the series, titled PARANORMAL ACTIVITY 5: THE GHOST DIMENSION, will have a 3D element to it. The report suggests that 3D will be used to differentiate the action between different dimensions. Yep, dimension-hopping is apparently on the agenda for this next film. Franchise regular Katie Featherston will be returning, with series newcomer Tyler Craig also confirmed for a role. The bulk of the story will focus on a new family being haunted by a supernatural entity, with the plot to tie in with the earlier outings in the franchise, particularly THE MARKED ONES.
Directed by Gregory Plotkin, with a script from Jason Pagan and Andrew Stark, PARANORMAL ACTIVITY 5: THE GHOST DIMENSION is currently set for a March 13th, 2015 release.

For McMoRan Exploration
Now is a good time to check on how the stocks in your portfolio might shape up next year. A good knowledge of the opportunities and the challenges ahead for the company should help you make better investing decisions regarding its stock. McMoRan might even have a potential game-changing strategy on its hands.
A light at the end of the tunnel?
The first Davy Jones well is expected to undergo flow tests this month as scheduled. I have a feeling this will turn out to be good news. The Wilcox cretaceous play, where the well is located, is said to contain an estimated 2 trillion to 6 trillion cubic feet equivalent (Tcfe) of reserves.
The Davy Jones well No. 2 is expected to finish in the second half of next year. Now that's what looks like a game changer. McMoRan's cumulative share from the two wells is a huge 3.2 Tcfe. With such reserves in hand, coupled with increasing production, the cost of production could come down significantly.
The big challenge
If management can curtail costs and bring them below the costs at which they sell natural gas, cash flows should see a big improvement. Ultra Petroleum
However, I'm not expecting much from McMoRan's Lafitte ultra-deep prospect, though additional hydrocarbons have been discovered. With Energy XXI

Five Swiss start-ups on a steep learning curve
Stefan Kyora28.09.2016 19:08
Related tags
In Silicon Valley, hundreds of start-ups vie for the attention of investors and large companies. In this cauldron, the five Swiss winners of the Swisscom Startup Challenge face strong competition. However, they benefit from their world-class technology and the contacts established by Swisscom – but in marketing there is still room for improvement.
The Cowper Inn is a 19th century contemplative wood house in a green setting in the district of Palo Alto. But among the floral wallpaper, sofas and old books, the atmosphere of the hotel this Tuesday morning is hectic. The five winners of the Swisscom Startup Challenge plan their day, discuss their pitches and at the same time work on the most pressing tasks of their daily business. "We have already solved three urgent problems," says Stijn Pieper of Advanon. He has not finished his breakfast.
The pace is characteristic of the entire Silicon Valley trip. On Monday, the five start-ups pitched for the first time before investors. On Tuesday, internet start-up Advanon had a first follow-up meeting with a donor. Similarly, the other winners too had an individual programme on Tuesday, with visits to potential business partners, which could distribute their product in the US, investors and a number of large companies, including Apple, Google, SAP, PWC and Accenture.
The form of the Swisscom Startup Challenge with its individual programmes for the winners is unique. "We did not want to create just another competition where the winners receive prize money," says Roger Wüthrich-Hasenböhler. Swisscom's Chief Digital Officer (CDO) is also in Silicon Valley to partially accompany the trip.
In order to set up the various appointments, Swisscom has activated its network in Silicon Valley. The telecoms group has had a local outpost (picture above) since 1998 and has a correspondingly tight-knit network of contacts. "At first, we were here to observe the trends; today, we are a bi-directional connection between Switzerland and Silicon Valley," says Gregory Leproux, responsible for innovation and business development in the branch office.
A core element of the exchange is the Startup Challenge and accordingly much work is invested in it. Wüthrich-Hasenböhler estimates the value of the gain for a start-up as CHF 20,000 to CHF 30,000, and a considerable part of this effort is devoted to initiating individual contacts. "We have expanded this part of the trip each year, because it brings the most value to the start-ups," he says.
In this fifth year of the competition, the start-ups go through their individual programmes on Tuesday and Wednesday. The group is together on Monday and Friday, but here again some start-ups break off to meet investors and business partners.
And when the group is together, the winners are not slow to fire questions at the speakers. For example, how best to maintain contact with someone met during the trip (answer: promise to provide further information within two weeks and then ensure you meet this deadline) or how to awaken the interest of someone in a conversation during an apéro (answer: provide valuable information; eg, on the most recent industry trends).
One thing was clear from the first day: the competition against which start-ups must prevail in Silicon Valley is tremendous. "They are up against not only the start-ups that are doing something similar, but also all the thousands of young companies that are looking for capital or manpower," says investor Alex Fries. The Swiss has lived in San Francisco for many years and now has a fund that aims to build bridges between Switzerland and the US.
It was Fries who judged the pitches of the five start-ups on the first day of the trip, and his opinion turned out to be a little deflating. Too many talked too much about the technology, but too little about the team and the numbers. In addition, the pitches did not emphasise strongly enough the benefits of the products. "You have to show clearly what you make better, faster or cheaper," Fries told the start-ups.
However, Fries definitely sees the qualities of the start-ups: the technology is better than that offered by Silicon Valley companies and they can be proud of the milestones reached in a short time. But the start-ups fall short in selling – and this is not a small point. "In my opinion, new companies need a marketing specialist in the team and hardly any Swiss start-ups have such a person," he says.
The winners of the Startup Challenge take the criticism seriously and work alongside their programme and the daily business to improve the pitches – and they give it full throttle, because the next investor appointments are already planned. In order to present at a higher tempo, Advanon and Nanolive both arrived with two people; although they have had to pay for the flight and hotel for the second person themselves, it has proved to be a smart move.

SAN FRANSICO – Double-doubles from Noel Pauga Wolman and Shih Ting (Stella) Chen help No. 4 BYU-Hawaii women's volleyball defeat Academy of Art in four sets (25-23, 23-25, 25-17, 25-16) on Monday night's match in California.
Earlier in the day Chen received PacWest Player of the Week honors for her strong play last week leading the Seasiders (10-3, 7-0 PacWest) to three wins. Chen recorded her sixth consecutive double-double with 24 kills and 10 digs and a .338 hitting percentage.
Wolman also recorded a double-double in the game with 11 kills and 10 digs of her own. Elizabeth Blake Solaita distributed the ball well recording 46 assists in the game. As a team BYU-Hawaii held the Academy of Art (8-7, 3-4 PacWest) to a .139 hitting percentage and five blocks.
The Seasiders began the first set with a small 3-0 run. Another 3-0 run started by a kill from Chen gave BYU-Hawaii a seven point lead at 12-5. With the set at 14-5, a block by Chen and two consecutive kills by Erh Fang (Ariel) Hsu helped Seasiders pull ahead by ten. In the end BYU-Hawaii was able to put the set away with Chen's tenth kill of the match winning 25-12.
It was even play throughout the second set with neither team gaining a big lead. Both teams made small runs tying the set every few points. In the end, the Urban Knights came away with a 25-23 set victory.
Early in the third set, the Seasiders broke things open with seven consecutive points to make the set 8-4 and take the lead. BYU-Hawaii kept the lead never letting Academy of Art closer than three points the rest of the set.
Kills by Wolman, Chen, and Solaita gave BYU-Hawaii an 11-7 lead in the fourth set forcing an Academy of Art timeout. A service ace later on in the set by Kathleen Collete gave the Seasiders a seven point lead at 17-10. The set ended with Wolman's 11th kill of the match to give BYU-Hawaii their seventh consecutive win.
The Seasiders finish their road trip with a match against Hawai'i Hilo on Saturday at 7 p.m. HST. Live stats will be available online.

Don't get stuck on salads with just lettuce. When making salads, let your imagination go wild. Use whatever ingredients you have and which strike your fancy! The more colorful, the better!
Upon returning to Berkeley after spending 3 months away, I was unable to buy everything I needed to fully restock my apartment, so what was originally intended to be Szechuan Green Beans turned into this. I was quite pleased with the outcome.
This can be used in any recipe instead of vanilla extract. White sugar provides the most neutral taste, but I prefer it with brown sugar (it's so good that I always eat a pinch on its own while baking...).
Though known as an appetizer, we most often eat them for lunch. If you plan to serve them as a main dish, plan on using one time this recipe per adult, so that they get 4 rolls each. Also, we prefer them stuffed with only tofu and vegetables, so we omitted the rice noodles that typically are part of the stuffing.
The secret of this basic bread dough is that flour is added to the liquids, rather than the other way round, which is what most regular bread recipes call for. Adding flour into the liquid allows the gluten and fibers to absorb more water, and as a result you get a more pliable dough and a moister, less crumbly bread. In other words, your bread tastes better! We learned this technique through Patricia Wells' excellent book At Home in Provence. In our house we use freshly ground spelt flour, but any good quality bread flour will work. Be creative and try to add other grains than wheat or spelt. Just keep wheat or spelt to 50% or more to provide gluten which makes your bread springy.
One of our favorite teas, this one is perfect for any time of the day. It is also a wonderful replacement for coffee!

You know the hype Wireless will change everything. And you know it's not true. So we went looking for the here and now of wireless technology. What works and what doesn't. Where the potholes are. The risks.
The truth is, wireless applications can be useful, but there are limits. As our overview shows, the era of the wired Web may be just around the corner, but there are still plenty of obstacles to be surmounted before m-commerce's vast potential is fulfilled in Australia. Analysts may predict that the number of mobile data users will increase from 34,000 to 200,000 by 2005, but before this can happen operators must first address a range of consumer frustrations, such as slow transmission speeds, confusing interfaces and high costs.
Security concerns, meanwhile, are also hampering the take-off of m-commerce. Whether you're talking about B2B, B2C, or simply allowing executives to send e-mail from their handhelds, organisations will have to master a variety of security and privacy issues before they'll see any business benefits from the coming wireless explosion.
Or should we say the first wave of the wireless explosion, for there can be little doubt that imminent improvements in voice recognition technology will radically alter the wireless landscape. As experts from FrontRange Solutions, Accenture and Deloitte assert in Talk To Me, the sooner we can speak to our wireless devices the sooner we'll be able to do away with clumsy user interfaces, the tedium of capturing information by hand and other current impediments to m-commerce.
However such technological advances will be long in coming, and smart companies are embarking upon a wireless strategy today. One thing all analysts agree on is that m-commerce business models are still evolving, and it's important for Australian companies to recognise that this evolution is happening on a global scale, offering our fledgling market several examples which can help organisations identify growing areas of customer demand, set price points and generally plot a safe course through the m-commerce minefield.
However, while now might be the time to develop an m-commerce strategy, the importance of viewing m-commerce in conjunction with e-commerce and other e-business strategies cannot be overlooked. M-commerce involves much more than merely selling things. A sound m-commerce strategy is also about changing and controlling your relationship with the customer, and as such must be built around communication and information.
Similarly, the great number of competing wireless standards, such as I-Mode, CDMA and WAP, places high demands on companies to create a flexible infrastructure for their m-commerce strategy - one that is robust and secure enough to meet user expectations, but also allows for seamless migration to new technologies which are sure to come down the line, such as location-based and proximity-enabled applications.
The wisdom gained from the early adopters and analysts CIO has interviewed throughout these pages shouldn't surprise you: Start small. Learn. Measure the risks. Ensure there's a business benefit. Then go.

Robert G. Kirby, who races sports cars on weekends, knew last November when he was named the lone West Coast member of the Presidential Task Force on Market Mechanisms that he would have to race back and forth between coasts to attend its deliberations.
What the longtime Los Angeles money manager didn't know then was the unprecedented enormity of the crisis that the task force would uncover.
"It really never occurred to me that we were teetering on the brink of some kind of disintegration of the financial system," Kirby said, echoing the panel's conclusion that the near-collapse of the U.S. financial markets on Oct. 20, the day after Black Monday, underscores the need for regulatory reform to prevent a recurrence.
The severity of that near-collapse was the biggest revelation that Kirby, chairman of Capital Guardian Trust Co. in Los Angeles, picked up as a member of the task force. The panel, which was headed by Nicholas F. Brady, chairman of Dillon, Read & Co., was the most prestigious of several groups commissioned to study the events surrounding the October market crash.

800 SFURTI clusters to be set up to boost khadi industry
New Delhi: The government will set up 800 clusters under the Scheme of Fund for Regeneration of Traditional Industries (SFURTI) with an investment of Rs.850 crore by March 2017 to boost khadi and village industries.
"Modernisation of khadi and village industries is the key to increase more number of job opportunities at the rural and grass root level without affecting the environment," Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) Minister Kalraj Mishra said on Sunday at a workshop here organised by the Khadi and Village Industries Commission (KVIC).
MSME had launched the SFURTI scheme in 2005 to promote cluster development.
The scheme envisages need-based assistance for replacement of production equipment, setting up of common facility centres (CFC), product development, quality improvement, improved marketing, training and capacity building.

Well I just hunted down a paper while researching Insulin / C-peptide as causal culprits for CHD, and this one is a zinger (all the way from 1990): http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8352181
C-Peptide is important because when you provoke a molecule of insulin (i.e. carb too high, & protein somewhat - NOT fat), it comes from a pro-insulin molecule, and a C-Peptide is released also. C-Peptide doesn't get gobbled by the liver, and it has a much longer half-life - so it could be a stronger indicator of Insulin's nasty side - useful that.
So what have we got in this paper? Well, a good kick in the arse of LDLp as a directly 'causal' variable in itself. Recall how it's been said that LDL particle number is the primary driver - in that merely higher numbers of LDL's drive the concentration gradient, that shoves them into the intima - like little grenades? I don't fully accept it yet. Anyway, In this study we get a look at what differentiate extent of disease within an affected group: we have glucose-intolerant peeps here, and we are comparing the severe Atherosclerosis guys against the not-so-bad ones. What do we see?
Well here's the overall variable correlations for the severe atherosclerosis versus not-so-bad in these poor peeps - note what jumps out for the severity signal. In other words, here's what really appears to drive the extent of actual, real, inflammatory disease :
Big ooops for the LDLp theoreticians - 'cause it ain't LDLp here. Sure, LDLp associates with atherosclerosis, because what put all these poor guys in the diseased state, tends also to drive up LDLp and down HDLc. But once the group is dysfunctional, then we get to see what really connects to the arterial damage: Insulin, C-Peptide. PAI-I. Triglyceride excess.
Let's just remind ourselves what signified this total diseased group (less and more severe athero), showing they had done the very bold thing relative to control peeps. What variables when measured, distinguished them from the non-diseased controls. In other words, what might you see in an associational study?:
Interesting - Insulin, that we know links to the extent of disease (from from the previous 'severity comparison' table), now actually fails as an associational variable - possibly indicating why some associational studies are ambiguous about Insulin...it's not a great reflection of the IR issues. HDL associates strongly, because it's a superb biomarker for health, and indicates that you are doing the right thing - If LDLp was on this summary, of course it would associate too, indicating that you are doing the wrong thing. Yes if you have specific issues, HDL may not indicate - by all means there are myriad other causes for CVD. Trigs similarly associate, for known reasons. So one could suggest that LDLp is mainly a problem because it interacts with the inflammatory milieu via the 'more numbers, more ingress' play - and most of all, it interacts with Insulin issues. Old chestnut again below?
