text: I've recently developed a taste for hot sour soup and would like to make it at home. Problem is, the recipes I've seen contain some rather exotic ingredients. I'm not opposed to exotic ingredients per se. But when you live in a culinary desert, as I do, things like sea cucumber and cloud ear fungus are hard to come by, to say the least. Anyone got a recipe that doesn't depend on such over-the-top products?

The sun is out already, well at least in my part of the city hence here's a mini round-up of my favourite fake tanning stash. My favourite formulation seems to be tanning gels and I feel nothing absorbs better into the skin than a well massaged liquid consistency. Mousse tend to be a hit or a miss for me at times and the only two I have liked are from KIKO and the cult-favourite St. Tropez of course.
Both the self tanning spray and mousse by KIKO and St Tropez are super natural and dry to a matte finish. I find they need to be blended quickly though to avoid any tell tale lines. Also if you have dry skin or are lazy at moisturising your body just like me, it's best to start with an intense dose of hydration prior to fake tan application for the product to glide on easily. Without a moisturiser underneath, it's literally like making a sandwich without butter. St Tropez also do a Tan Enhancing Body Moisturiser that I like to use underneath. It just helps the tan last longer and look more even in my opinion and smells lovely too!
KIKO's Self Tanning Day by Day Lotion is gorgeous and super hydrating. This one's actually my favourite of the bunch as although it delivers a light wash of colour, it deepens gradually within days. Perfect for a subtle, sun kissed glow. Also as you keep cleansing your face daily, this one doesn't have a chance to deepen as much to be honest hence I see it as a daily self tanner for a healthy glow rather than a gradual one. Also, the lotion can be used on the face as well.
St Tropez's Self Tan Bronzing Lotion for the face is of the perfect consistency. I usually avoid using body fake tanning products on the face. They are just not delicate and sensitive enough to use on the face as well hence when a product is marketed to be used on the face, it funnily gives me the mental satisfaction that it will be safe. It also leaves skin quite plump and nourished which I like. Perfect to top up a tan.
Lets hope the sunshine stay with us for longer so I can get more use out of my self tan products! Just to let you know that I already have tanned skin and would just use these to give me a sun kissed glow or to bronze up my pasty arms and legs that hardly see the sun.

I've tried:
Dim Sum - Not overly impressed. I need to go back and try something a little less exotic. Any entree recommendations of Dim Sum can't misses?
Mama's Caribbean - Again, not real impressed. Large portions but the meat was fatty and difficult to eat. My friend ordered chicken and it appeared he was served something from the ribcage area. Waiter had a glass eye and talked like Bob Marley, which was sort of cool.
La Taquerio (sp?) - Had this last night. Chicken enchilada, chicken taco, rice, beans, chips and salsa. The chicken was very low quality and not very tasty - will definitely get beef or vegetarian next time. . . Rice and beans were good. Some of the better rice I have had in NC (not saying much). Salsa was simple but fresh. A good mix of tomatoes, onions, peppers, cilantro, and oil.
What are some other places to check out on Central Ave? I'm not necessarily looking for ethnic food, but please exclude discussion of these establishments which I already often frequent:
Fuel Pizza
Thomas St. Tavern
The Penguin
Look forward to getting input from other Charlotte area hounds.

Try reproductions
For those who would like to start collecting art, a certified limited edition of a fine art reproduction is a current 'must have' in the art world, following a trend for lower price tags which was clearly seen at Art Dubai in spring this year.
Find your passion
A first-time buyer in pursuit of starting his or her art collection should be aware of looking for what they love, especially when it comes to having the factor of investment in their mind.
Decide your budget
The art of collecting art is all but priceless, therefore a reasonable budget should be available to spend over a certain time range in order to kick start the collection.
Know your market
Explore, browse online, visit shows, exhibitions and art fairs, and take your time to ensure your approach by discovering what kind of art appeals to you and what artists are significant to you. It is always an option to start your collection by buying from an online gallery instead of being intimidated by a gallery visit where prices are often on request only, and your jaw may drop after speaking to a gallery assistant about costs.
Ask the experts
Engage with a professional art consultant to widen your view and horizon on local and regional aspects and artists. Once you know what you are interested in buying, you can start your collection with a regional artist and expand step-by-step by taking different angles on art, such as establishing a themed collection which may support emerging artists in the region you live or travel.
Diversify the mediums
Enrich your lifestyle with artworks such as original paintings, sculptures, lithographs, and fine art photography or, if you're on a budget, even start with a selection of limited edition, fine art reproductions by one of your favourite artists.
Marion Labani is co-founder of Artdivano, a local online gallery, art consultancy and archival print studio which is participating in ArtBahrain at stand 32 from October 13-16. Reem Centre, Riffa, email@example.com (3921 2060).
What the experts say...'I think it's key that one knows why they are buying in the first place. Is it for investment purposes, to start a collection with the purpose of lending or showing one day, or simply for personal reasons?
If it is for the latter I suggest buyers always purchase something they actually love and cherish. If they continue to do this their collection will have a voice of their own as a reflection of their tastes and likes.
'They must always be aware of quality and provenance – which points to an artwork's authenticity and previous owners – as well if they are serious.
'The artist should have an extensive showing history if they are hoping the work will accrue value in the future, or simply like the artist's concepts, themes, their series or depiction of subject matter.
'For me, it is important the artwork has a strong reason for existing beyond an aesthetic mood, such as being "pretty", as I believe art has a stronger historical significance if it reflects the spirit of the time and culture it was created in.'
- Frances Stafford, art consultant
'Examine the market but do not be afraid of asking for assistance. The art world can sometimes be a confusing and highly pressurised space. A gallerist or an art advisory service, like the one we offer through our gallery, will be able to interpret and guide the novice art buyer towards the works that will best suit his or her needs.'
- Elena Shchukina, owner of London-based Gallery Elena Shchukina
'If you are starting an art collection, you have to have a continual theme in order for the collection to have a perspective. The collection needs to be transparent and carry a
key message.'
- Kaneka Subberwal, co-founder of ArtBahrain and Art Select

Broncos Split One-Run Games
March 17, 2014
Game One Stats | Game Two Stats
BOISE, Idaho -
Boise State softball split a pair of one-run games Sunday, on the final day of the SpringHill Suites Invitational II. The Broncos (15-12) lost 2-1 against Southern Utah before bouncing back to beat Idaho State 1-0.
Rebecca Patton pitched a shutout in the nightcap, allowing just two hits and two walks as she made sure one run was enough against the Bengals. It is Patton's second shutout of the season and the second time she has thrown a two-hit complete game this year, the fewest hits she has allowed in a seven-inning outing during her career.
Mackenzie Whyte scored both of Boise State's runs Sunday, and Ashley Palmer drove in both runs. Whyte has now scored in 10-consecutive games. She scored from first on a two-out Palmer double both times. Palmer now has 21 RBI on the season, 14 coming with two outs.
Late Runs Put Thunderbirds on Top
Mackenzie McGill pitched the first complete game of her career in the loss, allowing just the two runs on seven hits and two walks. McGill did not allow a hit until after four-and-two-thirds innings. A two-out single did no harm, but Southern Utah continued to figure her out in the ensuing innings.
In the sixth the Thunderbirds picked up three hits, including a pair with two outs. The final base hit came with runners at first and second and scooted all the way to the wall. Tara Glover retrieved it in right center and fired it toward the infield. Jordan Kreiger made a strong relay throw and gunned down the trail runner as the strong defense kept the game tied.
The middle of the Bronco infield had a strong day defensively. Whyte recorded five putouts and four assists. Kreiger had three putouts and six assists. McGill even had four assists from the circle. Still, it was an infield hit that gave Southern Utah the lead in the seventh. With runners at the corners and two outs, Tanisha Anderson rolled a ball to the right side. It slipped past Palmer at first, but Kreiger was there to scoop it up. After both fielders hesitated a split second on who would cover, Kreiger attempted to beat Anderson to the bag. Anderson was there first, and the run scored from third.
McGill finished the inning without allowing another run, but Boise State could not answer in the bottom of the seventh.
Palmer had two of the Broncos' four hits in the game and also drew a walk. Hailey Torrez picked up a hit in the first inning. The first of two walks to Sarah Barnes loaded the bases with two away in that frame- after Whyte had already scored- but a fly out to left ended the threat. Barnes had the fourth and final hit for Boise State, a leadoff double in the sixth inning. She was on third with nobody out, but the Broncos could not push her across to respond to Southern Utah tying the game in the top half of that inning.
The Broncos left nine on base, including a six in scoring position.
Patton Shuts Out Bengals
The Bengals had a hit in the first and second innings, then Patton allowed just two walks and one runner reached on an error over the final 19 batters she faced in her second shutout of the season.
Again, it was Palmer delivering the lone run for the Broncos. After Whyte reached on a fielder's choice, Palmer stepped up and drove a ball off the fence in right. Whyte took off from first and as the relay throw headed home she dove around the catcher to sneak in before the tag and put the Broncos on the board.
Glover and Torrez had the other hits for Boise State. Glover singled up the middle to lead off the first inning. Torrez hit a single to right field to lead off the sixth.
The game belonged to Patton, who only allowed one runner to reach second base and faced just three over the minimum in her 12th complete game of the year. She improved to 13-6 on the season.
This marks the end of the tournament portion of Boise State's schedule. The Broncos open Mountain West play Friday, against Fresno State at Dona Larsen Park. Boise State has one nonconference game remaining on the schedule, a road trip to Idaho State April 29, in Pocatello.

Prestigious international awards for Bert Meijer
Prof. Bert Meijer is honoured to receive the prestigious 23rd Nagoya Gold Medal of Organic Chemistry, annually presented to a chemist who has made a significant original contribution to the field of organic chemistry. Furthermore, Meijer will be decorated with an honorary degree of the University of Mons in Belgium for his outstanding contributions in the field of functional supramolecular materials and systems during the Academic Ceremony of March 31, 2017. Meijer: "I'm very proud to receive this honorary degree of the University of Mons."
Nagoya Gold Medal of Organic Chemistry
The Nagoya Medal was initially proposed by Professor Hisashi Yamamoto and Professor Ryoji Noyori and founded in 1995 with Professor Noyori as the president through the financial support of the MSD Life Science Foundation (previously: Banyu Life Science Foundation International). The first medal was presented to Professor Yoshito Kishi, and since then eminent scientists have come to give lectures. The Silver Medal, established in 1999, has been presented every year to a rising scientist based in Japan whose research has had a major impact on the field of synthetic organic chemistry. The medals are designed in the shape of a sword guard; the flowers on the surface are lilies, which are the city flower of Nagoya City, and have the meaning of "a kind heart and competitiveness".
During the award lecture and ceremony on December 22, 2017 at the Noyori Conference of Nagoya University, Meijer is invited to talk about his unique prize-winning chemistry, but also about the in-depth philosophy behind it, encouraging young chemists and students. Meijer: "I am very honoured with this most prestigious award and being on a list of the very best Organic Chemist in the world, with Ben Feringa being the awardee in 2013".
Meijer Research Group
Meijer's research is focused on the design, synthesis, characterization and possible applications of new supramolecular systems with unconventional properties and functions. By combining principles of synthetic and physical organic chemistry with challenges in materials and life sciences, they study the self-assembly and self-organization of molecular architectures into functional supramolecular systems.

I am so happy to introduce you,The Real Techniques Starter Set by Samantha Chapman. I was very excited to try these brushes because I heard so many good things about RT brushes. The line was created by Samantha Chapman,a makeup artist as well as a beauty guru on Youtube.This was one of the RT products I purchased. This carrying case comes with a velcro clasp and a string,for easy carrying. All the brushes are synthetic so they don't soak up product. But I felt these eye brushes were just too large to give much control.
Base Shadow Brush:
This brush is a bit fat but, it's works better though when you blend your eye makeup or when you wants to soften up harsh line.

Today, enterprises face infrastructure demands that are more demanding than ever before. With the proliferation of virtualization, mobile platforms and the ability to work 'from anywhere' things are becoming even more stringent, with uptime and availability requirements continually growing. In conjunction with cloud computing, enterprise business requirements are evolving into a constant state of change. These requirements are leading to a rethink on how IT Infrastructure Services are being designed, provisioned and maintained for both internal and external clients of an enterprise. Right now, the focus is on delivering a high level of business value through IT infrastructure, leveraging what is already in place with what is coming to accomplish organizational goals.
Currently, emerging technologies such as Cloud and Mobility are changing the way businesses work and handle everything from their own datacenter needs to uptime, multiple facility replication and service level agreements. To cater to the changing demands, enterprises require an IT infrastructure that is assured and scalable to keep pace with industry change in an increasingly evolving world. Enterprises are being forced out of competitive necessity to adapt to users computing workspace – anytime, anywhere. Now with virtualization in the mix, we can make the enterprise less dependent on local data center-based technology, changing budgetary consumption to operational while lowering the costs over the long-term.
MIT Group has the knowledge and expertise to implement infrastructure technologies, and build an infrastructure that can evolve with your organizational needs, creating value by leveraging your existing technologies, while optimizing your IT infrastructure and adopting newer technologies. Our personnel are capable of engineering, training, leading or implementing infrastructure needs of almost any size or complexity.

Workplace Stress Increasingly Problematic
Economists from Concordia University have recently published a study indicating that increasing numbers of workers are seeking medical help for ailments related to job stress. For workers in high stress jobs, visits to healthcare professionals are up 26%.
70% of workers in the United States indicated on recent polls that their workplace is a significant source of stress, and 51% reported that their productivity is reduced by jobstress. And according to study co-author Mesbah Sharaf, estimates put the cost of stress-induced healthcare utilization at $68 billion for U.S. companies, which lowers their profits by 10%.

An overview of the evaluation results (flash call info – IMI2 Call 10 – stage one) is now available under the call 'Additional documents' tab.
Topic DescriptionSpecific Challenge:
Diabetes represents an increasing global healthcare challenge. Controlling blood glucose is a cornerstone in diabetes management aiming to reduce the increased morbidity and mortality associated with this disease. However, only around 50% of patients achieve accepted international glycaemic targets.
Hypoglycaemia is common, and the importance of hypoglycaemia as a major concern for both healthcare professionals and patients is reflected by its impact on intrusions into daily living as well as serious consequences including hospitalisation and mortality. Hypoglycaemia and the fear of hypoglycaemia represent a recognised and measurable contributor to the burden of disease for people afflicted by diabetes, as well as their families, friends, and other parties – also known as 'The Greater Patient'.
Thus, hypoglycaemia is an important clinical issue for many people with diabetes, and it constitutes a major concern for patients on glucose lowering treatment regimens, who face the daily challenge of achieving accepted glucose targets safely, without increasing the risk of hypoglycaemia.
In recent years we have seen an increasing number of phase III clinical trials in type 1 and type 2 diabetes, but despite the improved accuracy of glucose measuring devices and increased patient access to continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology, detecting and reliably registering hypoglycaemic events in clinical trials remain a challenge. No approved guidelines or methods for how hypoglycaemia should be measured exist. Regarding hypoglycaemia, detailed monitoring of blood glucose and the recording of daily events, including physical activity and diet, are rarely carried out. Although data on severe and in most cases, symptomatic hypoglycaemia are collected during the trial period, information on other types of hypoglycaemia, particularly asymptomatic as well as episodes wherein patient outcomes are not immediately noticeable is limited. Moreover, people with a past history of severe hypoglycaemia are often excluded from clinical trials and little if any information is routinely collected on other types of pre-trial hypoglycaemia; as a consequence, this type of information is rarely included in post-trial analyses.
The current gaps and challenges in our understanding of hypoglycaemia consequently limit the management of hypoglycaemia. Furthermore, a consensus between healthcare professionals and other professional bodies including the regulatory authorities on the definitions of the clinical categories of hypoglycaemia is lacking which makes analyses of hypoglycaemic episodes difficult. Thus the overarching objective of this call topic is to reduce the risk and burden of hypoglycaemia and, as a consequence, ultimately improve glycaemic control in people with diabetes. To achieve this we will focus on a number of related specific challenges including:
- The need for a better understanding of the clinical determinants and consequences of hypoglycaemia and hypoglycaemia unawareness;
- The need to adopt scientifically sound, consistent, and clinically meaningful definitions of hypoglycaemia that will be accepted by practicing clinicians, regulators, industry and academia in order to probe clinical data;
- The need for creating standard guidelines that will be accepted by regulators globally for how to measure hypoglycaemic events to test glucose lowering drugs with respect to occurrence rates or severity of hypoglycaemic episodes;
- The need for standardized collection of clinical and laboratory data within clinical trials to increase our understanding of hypoglycaemia;
- The need for including hypoglycaemia in the current approach to determine the 'value for patients' in the context of clinical development;
The need for better insights into the underlying pathophysiology and defects in the counter-regulatory mechanisms associated with hypoglycaemia ,recurrent hypoglycaemic episodes and hypoglycaemia unawareness.Scope:
To achieve our objective of reducing the risk and burden of hypoglycaemia and ultimately improving glycaemic control in people with diabetes, we aim to gain a better understanding of hypoglycaemia through a series of integrated activities that are expected to include:
- Non-clinical and clinical research into the mechanisms of counter-regulation and hypoglycaemia unawareness to identify targets for intervention;
- Establishment of a large, consolidated database of hypoglycaemia captured in clinical trials across glucose lowering drug development programs from partner companies and a pooled CGM database collected using various glucose monitoring devices;
- Probing the databases to characterize clinically relevant hypoglycaemia and to determine the causes and consequences of such events;
- Evaluating glucose measuring techniques to define standard detection guidelines for measuring hypoglycaemia events and the accuracy of the detection;
- Developing best practice for the collection of clinical and laboratory data in clinical trials in order to assess hypoglycaemic events;
- Shaping health economic outcomes research (HEOR) to determine the value of reducing hypoglycaemia risk;
- Identifying existing patient-driven qualitative and quantitative research (self-reporting studies, surveys, etc.) and conducting a related meta-analysis of the obtained data;
Opening a dialogue with regulatory agencies to define clinically meaningful endpoints/methods to document rates of hypoglycaemia and the potential to reduce these with pharmacological intervention.Expected Impact:
The proposed programme will lead to:
- The establishment of a unique clinical trial database developed specifically for this programme that will contain anonymized, standardized and harmonized data from patients with T1DM and/or T2DM on glucose lowering treatment regimens which will subsequently become available for other interested researchers to access;
- Agreement amongst all stakeholders on the applicability of the definitions of clinically meaningful hypoglycaemia through examination of the combined clinical trial data set, clinical data and CGM;
- Enhanced understanding and agreement of standard approaches for how best to design trials to assess hypoglycaemia and how to analyse the data;
- Generation of information relating to existing and novel aspects of hypoglycaemia and hypoglycaemia risk leading to a better understanding of hypoglycaemia mechanisms, and novel targets for prevention and/or intervention;
- Exploration of the relationship between clinical trial database findings and real-time glucose measurement datasets from continuous glucose monitoring;
- Stronger evidence on the utility of non-laboratory glucose measurement and data analysis technologies
- A 360° assessment of the burden of hypoglycaemia for patients and society that will enrich our understanding of hypoglycaemia, complement our understanding derived from clinical studies and add perspective to related clinical recommendations;
Generation of evidence-based data to support discussions with regulatory authorities on acceptable definitions of hypoglycaemia.

An interesting article in the Toronto Star details the systems some local restaurant chains are installing to recover cooking heat to pre-heat cold water en route to hot water and heating systems. A sophisticated variant had a payback period of 21 months.
The system is supplied by a company that used to install bar and restaurant smoking room ventilation prior to smoking rooms being outlawed in Ontario. In summer when no heating is required the hot water supply water can be preheated to 120F/49C prior to entering the boiler. I've sometimes wondered whether the hot air in a Toronto summer, where nightly lows can exceed 20C could be used in a similar way to integrate into hot water systems downtown, especially given the apparent success of Toronto's Deep Lake Cooling System.

Ennis, TX — DragCoverage received news last night that Prostock team owners and drivers will be meeting with the Competition Director of NHRA TODAY, October 12, 2017, with a counterproposal in response to the recent letter stating that Prostock will be reduced to an 8-Car field at 9 National Events in 2018 due to the significant drops in participation.
We don't know the time or place, but RUMOR is that it's happening, a day before the AAA Texas NHRA Fall Nationals kicks off at Texas Motorplex in Ennis, Tx.
We hear that Elite Performance Prostock team owner Richard Freeman will be leading a lot of the discussion(s) today with the "counterproposal."
We don't know what the counterproposal is but two things that we know for sure that is not listed in the counterproposal is:
1. The proposal of factory cars. Although we have pushed it here on DragCoverage, this will not be proposed today.
2. Lb per cubic inch rule. I know this is random, but hey, this is the "talk" and rumors that we received last night…
The future of Prostock is still uncertain as NHRA continues to evaluate the class but hopefully the meeting today goes well and NHRA and Prostock participants can agree on a solution.

Chris Wilder says it does not get any better than seeing his Sheffield United side win at local rivals Sheffield Wednesday.
Wilder, who is a lifelong Blade, celebrated his 50th birthday on Saturday and was treated to the best possible present as his side trounced the Owls 4-2 in their own backyard in the first Steel City derby since 2012.
It was a thoroughly deserved three points for the Blades, who won it through goals from John Fleck, Leon Clarke (2) and Mark Duffy and celebrated a first win at Hillsborough in 11 years.

READ MORE - How social media reacted to the Blades' win
I never slept a wink for about seven days. It means everything today. It's the proudest moment of my career. To represent the club and to get the result is brilliant. We have had to swallow quite a lot over the last six years.Chris Wilder
Wilder said: "I don't think it gets any better. This was everything today for both clubs. To lead my team out in the fantastic atmosphere was a special experience and to cap it off with a wonderful performance throughout is great.
"I think we won it pretty comfortably and it was special for everyone at our football club. I thought we were a dangerous team, we produced a top class performance.
"I don't think you can put it into words. We have had it rammed down our throats over the last six years so it's nice to give the supporters something back.
"I never slept a wink for about seven days. It means everything today. It's the proudest moment of my career. To represent the club and to get the result is brilliant. We have had to swallow quite a lot over the last six years.
"It's a great day for us and we are going to enjoy it."
When Wilder was blowing the candles out on his cake on Saturday night he could not have even wished for a start as good as his side enjoyed as they led 2-0 after 15 minutes through Fleck's free-kick and cool finish from Clarke.
The Owls were well below their best but found a way back into it through Gary Hooper and Lucas Joao and looked primed to go on and win it.
However, Duffy immediately restored the Blades' lead and Clarke, against his former club, put the finishing touches on a a memorable afternoon.
Sheffield Wednesday boss Carlos Carvalhal said his side were derailed by their poor start, but accepts ultimate responsibility.
"It was a game with very high emotions and in this kind of environment if you start losing after two minutes it makes us more nervous," he said.
"We were nervous because of their early goal and we did mistakes that we don't usually do. The beginning of the game gave us instability.
"At 2-2 I thought most of the people in the stadium and watching on television thought we would win but Sheffield United got the goal. It was very hard for us. We never usually make these mistakes.
"The mistakes that we did, it is my responsibility. I want all the pressure on me, not on the players.
"I want my players to stay away from the pressure. We lose together and I take maximum responsibility."

I would like to start this week by reminding people about money management. Selecting golf winners is very difficult and we have enjoyed another good season but have just struggled here down the stretch. It has been a frustrating run for me as we have been analyzing these tournaments correctly just not getting the breaks we have in the past. This sport is not a sprint and we are always in it for the long haul (this is why we have profited in 8 straight seasons after this one). We move onto this week and get to witness a very talented field for this time of the year.
This week the players will be teeing the ball up in Georgia for the 2014 edition of the McGladrey Classic. A very strong field has gathered this week to try and obtain one of the final trophies of the year. Headlining the field will be Webb Simspon, Matt Kuchar, Charles Howell III, Harris English, and local star Zach Johnson. Look for the elite players to be near the top of the leaderboard this week, as there appears to be two classes of players in the field.
Sea Island Golf and Country Club will be the host venue, and should pose a difficult task for some players. Many previews and discussions leading into this week are speaking of how easy this golf course is. I do not agree. The Par 70 is only 7005 yard in length, so distance will not be an issue. What I feel the players will struggle with this week is finding the greens in regulation from the rough.
With good weather projected this week in Georgia, the course should be very firm by Thursday. I feel the real challenge however will be the players will be dealing with plenty of difficult lies in the rough. Players will also be dealing with Bermuda greens this week, a style that takes some getting used to for most players. Look for the winning score to be in the minus 13 to 15 range.
I am going to dive right into this weeks six pack as I feel the biggest tip is to favor recent hot play, good iron play and the top end talent. Here are the picks.
Six Pack System Free Pick
John Peterson 50 to 1– John is a tremendous talent and though the start to his 2014 season has not gone as planned, there are still big things to come this year. John opened this season up with a T21 at the Frys.com Open and then missed the cut at the Shriners Hospitals for Children. He should enjoy the set up of Sea Island Golf and Country Club though as it is a shot makers paradise. If you look at past winners it shows that it is crucial to hit plenty of fairways and greens in regulation.
It was well documented that John finished off his Web .com career with five straight results inside the Top 5, and that only amplified the excitement about him coming onto the PGA Tour. When you are watching John this week I want you to make note of what a competitor he is. He loves the game and you can really see how determined he is to become one of the best in the world. I also think it is of note that John is not phased whatsoever by the big stage, as he finished T4 at the 2012 US Open at the age of 23 (and as an amateur).

FACT > 1991's "Feel Every Beat" was Bernard Sumner and Johnny Marr's third single as Electronic. The US issue features exclusive mixes by Dave Shaw & Winston Jones, UK remixes from Danny Rampling & Pete Lorimer and DNA, and Stephen Hague's 7″ Remix. Also included are two excellent B-sides; instrumental "Lean To The Inside" is one of my favorite Electronic tracks, sounding like a theme for a British detective series.

03 Until The End Of Time (Sweet Dub)
04 Until The End Of Time (Soulboy Collective 7″ Version)

Sub Sub – This Time I'm Not Wrong
01 This Time I'm Not Wrong (Edit)
02 This Time I'm Not Wrong
03 Heads Will Roll (Instrumental Demo)
04 Fire Suite
FACT > Factory director and New Order manager Rob Gretton set up dance imprint Robs Records in 1990. The Robs artist roster included former Factory act A Certain Ratio, Beat Club, Strange Brew, Gold Coast, Red Seal, and Sub Sub. The latter produced a handful of house hits in the early-90s, including UK Top 10 tune "Ain't No Love (Ain't No Use)." However, Sub Sub quickly lost favor in clubland, and switched their style to indie rock. Featuring Bernard Sumner on vocals, "This Time I'm Not Wrong" (CD ROB 53) would be a pivotal turning point in the band's evolution into Doves. The single was the last product issued by Robs Records; subsequent early EPs by Doves were released through Robs sublabel Casino.
Robs Records, along with associated labels Manchester Records and Pleasure Music, ceased operations following Rob Gretton's passing on 15 May 1999.

Neil Tennant handles lead vocal duties, and 808 State remixed the track; the single mix is also included on the soundtrack to the 1992 film, "Cool World." Different B-sides feature on both sides of the Atlantic: the UK issue has the Stereo MC's take on "Idiot Country", while the US received a re-edit of "Gangster" produced by John Pillin and Steve Smith of the Art of Mix DJ promo service.

FACT > Back in 1994, the Creation label made a brilliant acquisition: A Certain Ratio's back catalog from their Factory years. As well as reissuing ACR's original albums (with almost all appearing on CD for the first time), Creation also commissioned a remix project involving predominantly Mancunian producers. Bernard Sumner and Johnny Marr (Electronic) reworked "Shack Up", while former ACR band member Andy Connell revisited "Life's A Scream" in a new mix exclusive to this release.

FACT > After leaving Factory Records in 1987, A Certain Ratio signed with major label A&M and released six singles and two albums between June 1989 and July 1990 (remixes of "Shack Up" were also produced during this period but never made commercially available). Refined for the dancefloor by Bernard Sumner, "Won't Stop Loving You" is essentially a remix of ACR's first A&M single, "The Big E" (ACR 514). Additional mixes by Norman Cook were also issued on 12″.

Is it me, or are professional food writers rapidly being replaced with bloggers and amateurs in publications that were once legitimate? In my local weekly (free) paper, the whole food section is being dumbed down to the lowest common denominator of food "journalists." I laughed at a couple of the articles that I found online, only to see them appear in the printed paper.
Don't get me wrong, I think there is a place and purpose for food bloggers. I did it for years before I decided to "retire." But it seems now that the local weekly papers have figured out a way to get plenty of free or cheap content and parade it around as "writing." I fear to give links or specific examples because I truly feel sorry for the professional editors that do this for a living. I assume they would be embarrassed with the content, right?

I also include this in my favorites article here!
I found Serpent Toothpaste... my favorite flavor! Interesting concept. It's nice to look at with all the small, subtle animated pieces and general smoothness in the appearance. Nice work!
Very interesting to look at! I included it in a compilation video series of all of the ProcJam creations, if you'd like to take a look! :)
Fantastic. I love it. :) I'd love to play a version with background music and sound FX.
Can't open it, it just says "acre5 has stopped working" (5, not 6)

It is a great pleasure for me to welcome you all to this meeting of the "Friends of OSAA".
I am grateful for this opportunity to brief you on a number of developments regarding our work, including, in particular:
The Strategic Plan for delivering on OSAA's mandate;
Progress in the implementation of NEPAD; and
Progress in the implementation of APRM.
Before I start talking about OSAA's priorities for 2009, I would like to thank you all for the support you have been giving to OSAA, including the strengthening of the Office through the approval of three additional posts. This is an illustration of strong support by United Nations member states to Africa.
Africa is facing severe challenges as a result of the current global economic crisis. This means that those of us whose mandate is to support the poorest and most vulnerable of the global community have an even greater responsibility to do everything possible in mitigating the negative impact of the crisis upon Africa, and in facilitating Africa's efforts to achieve peace and development on the continent.
The Strategic Plan for delivering on OSAA's mandate
Let me now turn to the Strategic Plan for the implementation of OSAA's mandate which we prepared in response to the request of the African Group. In line with its mandate, OSAA aims to:
Mobilize support and galvanize the efforts of the international community for Africa's peace and development;
Ensure that the development of Africa remains one of the main priorities of the international community;
Promote a supportive international framework for Africa's development efforts;
Encourage a coordinated and effective response by the United Nations system at the policy and operational levels in support of African development; and
Strengthen and enhance South-South cooperation in support of Africa's advancement.
In addition to the annual Secretary-General's reports, OSAA is planning a number of other activities in the course of 2009 to focus attention on current and emerging issues of particular relevance to Africa.
While the current decade began with a strong sense of optimism and high expectations regarding sustained economic growth and poverty reduction in Africa, the continent's growth perspectives have severely deteriorated as a result of the current global financial and economic crisis. As a side event to the Conference on the World Financial and Economic Crisis and its Impact on Development, OSAA, in collaboration with OHRLLS and UNU, will organize a panel discussion on the "Impact of the Global Financial and Economic Crisis on Africa and the Least Developed Countries (LDCs)" on 2 June 2009. The panel discussion will examine the impact of the global financial and economic crisis on Africa's development and aim to focus the attention of the international community on the policy responses and measures needed to accelerate Africa and LDCs recovery from the crisis. This is underpinned by a belief that recovery can be achieved sooner rather than later, if the appropriate and coordinated responses are implemented in timely fashion.
In July this year, OSAA is organizing a panel discussion in ECOSOC High-Level Segment on "Matching Health Outcomes with Human Development needs in Africa and the Least Developed Countries" as health is critical on the continent.
Expert Group Meetings
I would also like to draw your attention to the successful Expert Group Meeting on "Africa's Cooperation with New and Emerging Development Partners: Options for Africa's Development" that the Office organized early this year. In view of Africa's expanding relationships with new and emerging development partners such as the People's Republic of China, Republic of Korea, India and Brazil as strategic partners of Africa, OSAA organized, in collaboration with ECA and the AU Commission, an Expert Group Meeting which took place from 10-11 February 2009, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The objective was to provide a forum for experts in the field to discuss the nature of these new strategic partnerships with Africa, as well as formulate recommendations on how this cooperation could be further improved with a view to helping African countries' attainment of development objectives.
The Office is convening an Expert Group Meeting on "African Perspectives on International Terrorism" to be held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia from 3 to 4 June 2009. The objective of this Expert Group Meeting is to examine the evolving response of different African stakeholders, including the countries themselves, as well as the African Union, African sub-regional organizations, and civil society to the continuing threat of international terrorism and the areas where greater collaboration with the United Nations and other international partners can be undertaken to promote a holistic response to the complex threat.
In July 2009, OSAA is convening an Exert Group Meeting on "the role and capacities of African subregional organizations in conflict management". The meeting aims to supplement the current debate within the United Nations on the need to strengthen the capacities of the African Union to conduct peace operations.
Lack of diversification and commodity dependence has led to increased vulnerability of African economies. In this context, OSAA is undertaking a study on "Economic Diversification in Africa: a review of the experiences of selected countries", including an Expert Group Meeting in the last quarter of 2009.
In September/October 2009, OSAA will hold an Expert Group Meeting on "Natural Resources" which will look at the impact of climate change on natural resource scarcity in relation to key resources including land and water.
OSAA is organizing an Expert Group Meeting on "Security Sector Reform and Protection of Women" which were considered critical issues for follow-up by experts who attended the Second International Conference on DDR and Stability in Africa organized in the DRC (2007) by OSAA.
In addition, the Office has commissioned an issue paper on Peace Building and Human Security which will examine the extent to which current practices in peace building processes meet human security needs.
As a follow-up to the High-Level Meeting on Africa's Development Needs held in September 2008, the Office is engaged in intense discussions within the UN system regarding implementation of the Political Declaration on Africa's development needs. As you may recall, in paragraph 39 of the Political Declaration, member states requested the Secretary-General to submit to the General Assembly at its sixty-fourth session a comprehensive report, with recommendations, on "Africa's development needs: state of implementation of various commitments, challenges and the way forward" with a view to the formulation, by the sixty-fifth session of the Assembly, of a mechanism to review the full and timely implementation of all commitments related to Africa's development, building on existing mechanisms, to ensure that Member States remain seized of the issue of addressing Africa's special development needs.
The Inter- Departmental Task Force on Africa (chaired by OSAA) is discussing the draft outline of the Secretary-General's report as well as exchanging ideas on the monitoring mechanism to be formulated by the sixty-fifth session of the General Assembly. The coordination of African affairs within the UN system through the Inter-Departmental Task Force will ensure a coherent and integrated approach for United Nations support for Africa.
As you will recall, the Secretary-General has mentioned to the General Assembly and the Security Council that he was considering a comprehensive review process of the recommendations contained in his 1998 report on the Causes of Conflict and the Promotion of Durable Peace and Sustainable Development in Africa. A decade after the report was issued it is time to take stock of the many advances that Africa has made in promoting peace and development in the continent. The Panel of the Wise, APRM, the Early Warning System, and the African Stand-by Force are just examples of the many initiatives that African leaders have put in place. From the Human Rights Council to the Peacebuilding Commission, the institutional framework and policy approach of the organization especially vis-à-vis Africa has attempted to keep pace with the developments and adjust to the new needs and realities. The recently adopted Political Declaration on Africa's Development Needs outlines, once more, the need for a more integrated and comprehensive effort.
It is now time to undertake a comprehensive and in-depth analysis of the challenges that both Africa and the UN will encounter in the near future as well as the institutional and operational requirements to best address them. I urge you to support and facilitate the adoption of the relevant UN General Assembly resolution on this matter.
Progress in the implementation of NEPAD
Let me now say a few words about latest developments in NEPAD. African leaders appointed former Prime Minister of Niger, Ibrahim Hassane Mayaki as the new Chief Executive Officer of the NEPAD Secretariat. The new CEO has already taken over the leadership of the NEPAD Secretariat; he has met with the AU Commission in Addis Ababa and participated in the G20 Meeting in London.
In order to facilitate information exchange and keep the African Group of member states up-to-date on progress in the implementation of NEPAD, OSAA is planning to organize biannual briefings by the NEPAD CEO to the UN member states at the UN headquarters in New York. We are hoping to organize the first briefing by Mr. Mayaki in September 2009.
The process of integration of NEPAD into the AU structures is continuing. Strategic discussions are now taking place about which parts of the NEPAD Secretariat will stay in Johannesburg and which ones will be fully integrated into the AU structures. The intention is for NEPAD to become a Planning and Coordinating Authority responsible for the interface between the RECs, national governments and the donor community. A group of consultants commissioned by the AU/NEPAD Coordinating Unit have prepared the draft study on the integration of NEPAD into the African Union structures and processes, and this was discussed at the just-concluded NEPAD Steering Committee Meeting in Johannesburg.
Work continues on implementing the NEPAD sectorial priorities. At the 37th meeting of the NEPAD Steering Committee, the new NEPAD CEO reported progress in CAADP implementation on national level. Furthermore, the CAADP Multi-Donor Trust Fund launched in 2008 with US$50 million has now become operational. In the area of infrastructure, the Annual Meeting of the Infrastructure Consortium for Africa (ICA) held in Rome in March 2009 provided an opportunity to highlight Africa's infrastructure priorities and further engage partners. As far as ITC is concerned, NEPAD e-Schools Demo Project has been completed in 10 out of 16 countries. In the area of capacity development, NEPAD Capacity Development Strategic Framework has been finalized. NEPAD Secretariat is also focusing on strengthening the networks with various partners, including through preparations for the 12th APF in Rome scheduled for next month.
Many of you, as friends of Africa have expressed keen interest in, and support for the African Peer Review Mechanism. Twenty-nine African countries have subscribed to the process; seven have completed it and adopted programmes of action. The key question now is how quickly and effectively each programme of action will be implemented. This is where international support, especially that of Africa's strategic partners will be crucial. And I would like to use this opportunity to urge all of you to find appropriate ways of providing this support.
OSAA looks forward to a good working relationship with all of you in support of Africa's development.
The floor is now open for an exchange of views.
Thank you.
