Leicester blew a golden chance to step up their title bid as Riyad Mahrez had a penalty saved against 10-man Bournemouth.
The Cherries edged a tight first half in which Josh King headed wide and Dan Gosling shot over.
The closest the hosts came to scoring was when Jamie Vardy smashed the upright in the 27 minute.
But the second half was all Leicester and they should have got all the points as visitors' skipper Simon Francis was sent off for bringing down Vardy and Mahrez got a spot-kick.
The Algerian was denied by Artur Boruc though in the 59th minute and the hosts failed to break down Eddie Howe's stubborn side.
Heres 5 things we learned...
1. Claudio Ranieri is still the 'Tinkerman'
After subduing Man City in Tuesday night's 0-0 draw, Foxes boss Ranieri switched from 4-5-1 back to 4-4-2 and recalled Leonardo Ulloa upfront, dropping Gokhan Inler.
And when it was 0-0 at the break Ulloa was withdrawn and Riyad Mahrez pushed upfront alongside Vardy.
2. Jamie Vardy should go back on penalties for Leicester
Riyad Mahrez was back on penalty duty after Vardy's record-breaking 11-game scoring run but the England striker probably would have done better than the Algerian's effort which Artur Boruc saved.
Vardy had previously taken and scored from the spot against Watford in November.
3. Cherries look good to survive
Eddie Howe's side have had to contend with numerous long-term injuries but they are still on course to stay up.
They more than held their own in an even first half which forced Ranieri to change formation at the break and even with 10 men they showed real quality and tenacity.
4. Foxes' Thai owners must get cheque-book out if want glory
Leicester have 40 points already after an awesome season so far. Now is the chance to push on with the top clubs floundering and City's Thai owners would be advised to make a couple of big quality signings if they want to be sure of a top four finish.
Youngster Demarai Gray is on his way but is one for the future.
5. Bournemouth can kick on
The Cherries next two games are at home to West Ham and Norwich giving them a chance to build on their impressive recent form after just one defeat in eight games now.

As mobile applications become a large part of our everyday lives, access to information has never been easier. Literally, the information you are looking for is at your fingertips.
Until recently the options for small business owners used to be limited but as the mobile app marketplace grew so did the number of apps that were focused on helping manage a business. You can now keep an eye out on finances, share sensitive files, or collaborate on documents in a taxi, on the bus, or waiting in line at the grocery store.
What's more, with bigger and bigger touch screens, faster processors, increased security, and mobile apps, there are not many limitations that remain between what can be done on a mobile phone and your work computer.
We've put together the following graphic to highlight 13 of the most useful mobile applications (with a shameless plug for desk.com), that can make financial management, customer support, document collaboration, and communication simple and easy.

We want to overcome misconceptions about the Balkans and
show that professionalism has no boundaries, developing an orthodontic clinic at the maximum technologically, logistically and organizationally.
So the attention, warmth and professionalism of staff, as well as architecture, modern ambiance and unique design of the clinic, we create for patients a state of relaxation, trust and safety.
OrthoLUX Clinic has a stated goal: To provide premium quality orthodontic treatments! With our motto: We design your smile!
I received an email with the answer to my questions on the nex day.
Is a new breakthrough – these are fast, fixed orthodontic braces using low friction mechanics – which not only result in quicker treatment times but lighter forces and more comfortable treatment.
Adults can now benefit from an orthodontic treatment applied on the inside or parts of teeth, completely invisible (lingual techniques) or outside (that are transparent). So you can smile with confidence in yourself, because your dental braces are our secret!
As soon as the treatment is performed, more quickly the anomaly is resolved.
The risk of recidivism is reduced with a maximal effect without surgery.
The aesthetic appliance with SAPPHIRE is called the jewel in orthodontics.
Due to its benefits, offer the patients: trust, guaranteed results, strength, comfort and an ideal aesthetic.
The retainer is used in the final stage of orthodontic treatment to fix teeth in their newposition.
Is most effective in early mixed dentition for tooth eruption guidance and correction of myofunctional habits. Tooth channels and labial bows guide the erupting/developing dentition into correct alignment and while the tongue tag and lip bumpers treat myofunctional habits.
Short treatment used to improve aesthetics.
At our dentist consultation, we will discuss our treatment plan with both the patient and all decision makers (e.g. in the case of children, both parents will be invited to the consultation).
Invisalign is an orthodontic tool among others. This transparent and aesthetic system relies on a series of aligners (trays dental polycarbonate) to move without pain gradually teeth. Each aligner must be worn for about 300 hours (two weeks for 22 hours per day), so all the time except during meals and brushing teeth.
It is FREE. For consultation is required two X-rays: OPG and lateral cephalometric.At our orthodontic consultation, we will discuss our treatment plan with both the patient and all decision makers (e.g. in the case of children, both parents will be invited to the consultation).
The fees for the treatment we recommend will also be explained and listed at this consultation.
In just 30 minutes, you will have a great white smile! No pain, no sensitivity from Beyond powered by OrthoLUX.

In Partnering Dance and Education, Dr. Judith Lynne Hanna presents a compelling argument for making dance central to every student's education. She examines current trends and issues in education to show how dance can be successfully justified and taught in today's changing educational environment.
Rich with examples from arts magnet schools, arts organization offerings, dance company programs, public school instruction, and programs for at-risk youth, the book addresses difficult questions, including:
Divided into two parts, Partnering Dance and Education is full of information and insights that readers will find both illuminating and thought provoking.
Part I recognizes dance as a discipline in its own right with a distinct body of knowledge. Chapters discuss the benefits and methods of providing dance education, ways dance education can develop within the education reform movement, and who should teach dance.
Part II addresses how dance education, while meaningful in itself, has broader relevance. Chapters discuss how dance can be used to teach academic and workplace skills, help at-risk youth, promote national identity while preserving cultural diversity, and help people cope with stress. It explains how children's dance during free play can be used as a teaching tool, and it looks at the role of dance in teaching students about gender.
A special appendix poses challenging discussion questions for students and teachers. An extensive dance resources appendix includes suggested readings, as well as the addresses and phone numbers of leading dance organizations, programs, and schools.
Judith Lynne Hanna has spent a half-century dancing, researching, writing, and teaching others about dance in community centers, schools, and universities. After teaching English and social studies for the Los Angeles City School System, she held positions at Michigan State University, American University, Fordham University, and the University of Texas at Dallas. She has conducted field research on dance and other subjects in countries around the world. Currently, she is a Senior Research Scholar at the University of Maryland and an expert court witness nationwide on cases concerning freedom of expression through dance.
Hanna has long been a leading advocate to make dance an essential component of children's education. In 1972, at Gill/St. Bernard's Upper School in Bernardsville, NJ, she offered an interdisciplinary dance-centered course. Between 1989 and 1993, Hanna worked for the United States Department of Education, where she was able to assess what is happening in dance education throughout the United States.
Hanna received her PhD in anthropology from Columbia University in 1976. She has explored how knowledge in the arts, humanities, and social and behavioral sciences helps us understand dance. Her books include To Dance Is Human: A Theory of Nonverbal Communication; Dance, Sex, and Gender: Signs of Identity, Dominance, Defiance, and Desire; The Performer–Audience Connection: Emotion to Metaphor in Dance and Society; Dance and Stress: Resistance, Reduction, and Euphoria; and Disruptive School Behavior: Class Race and Culture. Hanna's articles have appeared in Dance Teacher Now, Ballet Review, Stagebill, Education Week, Dance Magazine, Anthropology and Education, and The Washington Post.
Hanna's numerous awards include a National Endowment for the Humanities Fellowship and the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance's Anderson Award for significant publications.
"A unique and insightful view of dance in the context of education and life. With an eye toward potential opportunities available in a reform-minded environment, the author directly explores the multidimensional aspects of dance education and the many ways in which it can enhance the educational experiences of youth and adults. Readable at any level."
Valuable knowledge for university dance educators and their students; physical educators, dance specialists and other teachers, administrators, and policy makers in grades K-12; parents; dance studio owners and instructors; professional dancers; and dance lovers.

Jawbone's Newest Gadget, 'UP': Is It All It's Cracked Up to Be?
Is it possible for a bracelet to help you live a better life by sleeping better, eating smarter, and moving around more? Most people would be skeptical, but the company Jawbone has created a wristband (it's called UP) that tracks daily activity and sleep patterns to make you more aware of your daily habits, from exercise to sleep.
Sounds pretty cool, right? I say for $99, it had better be amazing. However, since being released for sale to the public, UP has had many mixed reviews. Some users love the wristband, while others have had multiple problems from the beginning.
Let me tell you a little bit about the physical features of Jawbone's UP. The exterior is made of steel and rubber, so it's sweat and water resistant, and there is a covered USB connector on the end for charging the device. There are precision motion sensors on the inside, which track movement and sleep activity, along with a vibration motor to power the silent alarm and reminders. And last is the rechargeable battery that only has to be charged every ten days.
How does UP work and why would it be useful?
Like I said before, UP is intended to help you live a healthier lifestyle and it's promoted as a social experience. The motion sensors track your daily physical activity and logs it to an app on a "smart device" (it's compatible with iPhones, iPods, and iPads). You can share your daily activity with friends and family who also have UP. There are options to challenge or compete with others, such as who can walk more steps in a day or who works out more in a week, etc. This is supposed to motivate the healthy behavior by making it a social goal and a fun competition.
The UP wristband also tracks inactivity. When you have been sitting still for more than 15 minutes at a time, the device vibrates to remind you to get up and move around. This would be great in an office setting for those of us who sit at a desk and work all day, and it's not distracting to others.
UP can also be put in sleep mode to monitor how well you're sleeping. The motion sensors detect how much you move while sleeping to determine what phase of sleep you're in and how much sleep you're actually getting. The device is programed to wake you at a specific time with a gentile vibration while you're in the lightest phase of sleep.
The product promotes healthy eating with a digital food journal. Users log what they eat daily and give a brief explanation about how they felt after eating said food, and they can also snap a picture of the food before eating it. The data is saved for future reference.
What are some pros and cons concerning UP?
- UP promotes a social and healthy lifestyle.
- It has a built in vibrating alarm clock and reminder.
- It's very gender neutral, and has over 5 colors to choose from.
- The motion sensors only detect arm movement, causing inaccurate readings for most people.
- If you forget to put it in sleep mode, your data is inaccurate and your daily progress suffers.
- UP cannot be used without an app, so if you don't have an Apple smart device, you can't use it. However, they are currently producing an Android app!
Takeaways from Jawbone and the UP wristband:
Be open to suggestions: When your company develops a new product, be open to suggestions from your customers on how to improve the item. Jawbone has a Community tab on the UP page that allows users to comment on the product by giving suggestion about how to improve UP.
Have product support available: Customers can also leave questions on the community tab for the Jawbone staff, whether they have a simple question about how to use the product or app, or what to do if the product is not working properly. The support team can give the user the appropriate answer or plan of action. If others are having the same problem, they can just read the message board and not have to e-mail someone and wait for an answer.
On a whole, I think UP is a cool and innovative product. It has great features and could be really useful in the right setting. But is it really worth $99? I don't think so. I think it's a fad that will fade away and be forgotten about. If I had this device I would probably wear it for a week and get tired of it. I'm sure there are others out there who would love this product, but it's in the beginning stages of its life, and I think it will be a while before it really reaches its full potential.
How do you feel about UP? Do you really want one now or would you be happier without one? Let us know what you think about Jawbone's UP in the comments below!

Some days getting up is no big deal (refreshing even), and some days it is like the next person to make a loud noise gets the Dexter treatment. So I would LOVE something that wakes me up at the right times. But if it doesn't work correctly ALL the time, it's going out the window. I just can't be woken up at 3:30 for no damn reason.
Very interesting stuff! Thanks!
I agree Jeff, I would like to wake up to a soothing vibration, but if it wakes me up at 3am, I'm not going to be happy even if I am in the lightest phase of sleep.
I received the UP24 as a gift for Christmas, and the waking alarm works great. It does not wake you in the middle of the night. There are settings in the app where you can specify exactly what time you want/need to be up in the morning. It gently vibrates around that time (give or take 30 minutes depending on your sleeping pattern) while you aren't in a deep sleep. When it vibrates, it feels like a tickle, you simply press the button to shut it off. However, turning off the alarm, does not take the band out of sleep mode, you still have to do that once you actually get out of bed. I've been using mine for nearly a month now, and this is one of my favorite features.
Very cool article, Jen. I had no idea anything like this existed.
And while I do believe this product is good in theory, I agree that it's not nearly worth $99. I already have a mom and girlfriend to make me feel bad about what I eat and how little I work out (and I don't have to pay them anything). I'm not quite sure I need to hear it from a bracelet too.
Well done, you've just sold me on avoiding this product. 😀
Wow! This sounds like a really interesting product, Jen. I think the $99 is a bit steep, but then again I'm sure the technology involved probably eats up a lot of their revenues. I would love to try it for the sleep function, that sounds really interesting. I hate waking up to a blaring alarm clock from a deep sleep 🙁
"This is supposed to motivate healthy behavior by making it a social goal and a fun competition."
That's actually a pretty brilliant concept, and I'm sure many people would enjoy UP for exactly that reason. I'll admit though: I'm not to keen on the idea of going out of my way to keep track of my daily activity and movement through an app. Of course, I don't own a smartphone, so UP isn't really an option for me anyway.
As far as the price: $99 seems a bit much. For $49, a device like UP would have a much better chance in the marketplace, but at twice that price, the company is obviously banking on their new product being a popular seller this holiday season and then taking off from there. It's doubtful that Jawbone will be that lucky, but who knows?
In any case, excellent post, Jen! I love new tech! 🙂
I'm with you, Joe! If UP was $49 instead of $99, I'd definitely buy one to try it out. It sounds awesome! I'm usually skeptical of gadgets like this, but it seems like UP's features are a lot better than other (similar) ones I've seen.
Jawbone has a commendable community going on this, which is really cool. They seem like they actually care about what their customers are saying/asking. That's something that many established companies haven't gotten the hang of yet, so kudos to them for making themselves available to their customers!
Nice post, and thanks for the rundown on this. I'll be watching it to see if it comes down in price anytime soon! 🙂
I think $49 is much more reasonable for a gadget like this. Good point Joe. 🙂
And Jill, it really does seem like they want the feed back from their customers. It looks so convenient to use too, and I always see responses to the questions and concerns people have posted.
I'm glad that Jawbone has a community tab for people to leave comments and suggestions. For an investment of $99, I would hope that they are going to be taking feedback and trying to improve the product. An UP would be neat to have, but I could totally see myself getting bored with it after a week.
The community tab is great! But just reading some of the comments and questions really makes me think twice about about buying one. A lot of people have had the same problems with it not syncing to their phones or accurately counting their steps. Maybe I will wait until next year to purchase one, and see if it gets better. 🙂
No thanks, I have a Kinect now. :p
I'm a firm believer that – if you really want to maintain a healthy lifestyle, lose weight, etc. – you don't need the fancy gadgets to do it. This just seems like a lukewarm technological replacement for a physical trainer, which is another step in the direction of finding some external source of motivation. An alarm clock, nutrition journal, and a pedometer do not equal $99. Bottom line? It seems trendy. Trends may get people to try attempting a healthier lifestyle, but most the time, that's as far as it goes. Jawbone needs to stick to Bluetooth headsets.
Interesting article, though, Jen. Seems like most folks feel strongly one way or the other with this gadget.
I totally agree with you, Eric, that it is really cool and trendy, but when it comes down to it, to live a healthy lifestyle you need to have motivation. If you don't have it, Up will work for a while but you will get tired of it. If you already have it…you probably don't need Up anyway. Funny how it works.
I still think it's a cool alarm clock though. 🙂
Haha…you know, if I tried it, and it didn't scare the living hell out of me waking me up, it may not be a bad idea. I've gotten in the habit of rotating through alarm clock sounds on my phone to wake me up, because hearing the same, jarring noise every morning will wear on ya. I remember a morning in college I totally took a cue from the movies and just ripped the thing out of the wall and chucked it across the room. I'll have to keep up on product reviews and see what people have to say.
Oh man, I hate that there are so many brand-specific products out there! Grr! I would totally get one of these but I do not have an Apple phone, nor an Android for that matter. Whatever happened to creating just a basic computer specific device, so just as long as you have a computer, you can have cool stuff too!
I really like the idea of this bracelet, but like others have said, the price point is too high for me to consider buying it right now. I think the way that it alerts you when you're not moving is the coolest thing; I know I spend waaay too much time at the computer both at work and at home, and a little reminder to get up would be neat. Of course, I could probably do that just by setting an alarm on my phone or something … but still, neat!
I think the biggest thing you note here is that the motion sensors have been problematic because the bracelet only knows what your arm is doing. Maybe once they improve the technology a little more that could be fixed. But anyway, a very interesting post, Jen! Thanks for the rundown 🙂
I think this is an interesting idea, but agree with Eric. It's a trendy item that's priced too high, I'm guessing it won't be around for long. But who knows, people love gadgets! Cool post Jen! =)
Jen doesn't seem to understand how UP works. It will not wake you at 3am just b/c you're in light sleep. You set an alarm and it will wake you within a 30 min prior window to that alarm if you are in a light sleep phase. Otherwise it wakes you at the time of the alarm. I've had mine a week and I do like waking up by the vibrating band much better than a noisy alarm, especially b/c it doesn't wake my girlfriend when I need to wake up earlier than her.
As for the idle alert. It is off unless you turn it on and does not do off every 15 minutes. I have mine set for 2 hours, but you don't need it turned on at all.
Not sure where you got these for $99. Mine was $130 at the Apple Store. The Nike Fuel was $150 there. There was also a third brand for around the same price, which I think is pretty reasonable for such unnecessary gadgets. Considering you need an IPhone or IPad to run it, I'm surprised anybody would complain about $100!
I'm still very skeptical about how accurately it can really track calories and sleep, but so far it has seemed pretty good. My guess would be that it can't be extremely accurate, but is at least good motivation and makes you more conscious of how much you're moving, eating, sleeping, etc. We'll see how long I stick with it!
Hi, Steve!
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a comment. And thank you for the updated info! This blog post is a little older and Jen doesn't write blog posts for us anymore. So we really appreciate you leaving some updated information for us.
Good luck with your UP – let us know how it works. 🙂
Hi, All.
My husband and I bought the Jawbone Up wristbands and found they were not compatible with our 4LG phones. Bummer. However, we had planned to buy each other an iPad for our birthdays, so we got the iPads and the wristbands. We have been using them since March and are totally enthused with the product. You have to understand that at 60+, this is a great way to measure your activity for the day. By the end of the day, most days, I have put in 8500+ steps and need to work on that some. For my husband, around 3500+ steps per day. The sleep measure appears to be very accurate, especially the number of times you wake up. We have 2 chihuahuas that think they need to get up at least once every night……and the wristband measures that! We have found that we are striving more to eat right and get in more steps and sleep per day. Our bands cost $130 each and we feel this is a worthwhile investment for us. My sister and her husband are also thinking of getting the bands. I would venture to say the bands are very accurate too since we keep up with the information by other means for comparison. For us seniors, these are fantastic motivators!! Well done, Jawbone.
I got my UP about 2 weeks ago and love it! I'm already a fitness enthusiast and try to stay active during today. Sometimes I'm surprised to see how few steps I've taken on days I'm tied up in meetings, so the UP gets me moving more to help me meet my step goals. I sync it twice a day: mid morning and before bed, And enjoy seeing the stats. The graphs are attractive and easy to read. It's also great to know its water resistant so I don't have to worry about sweat damaging it. I work in health promotion, so I am happy to have experience with this product so I can recommend it to others who are interested in self monitoring.
I've had the UP band for a few weeks now and your "pros" and "cons" are spot on. If you carry a purse or any item (groceries, etc.) on the arm that hosts the UP band, readings will not be accurate, so I've had to be aware of that. Your arm needs to be miving or swinging. I've gotten up in the middle of the night, walked around and the device didn't even track that I was awake.
On the other hand, seeing it on my wrist, knowing it's tracking something, reminds me to increase my activity each day. And it reminds me each night to get more sleep. Plus each day, it offers health tips and suggestions. Those three things alone have been worth the money.
I've been using up for about a month. I'm 59. I have terrible sleep problems, that why I got the up. I love finding out what it says in the AM. I found on days I really laugh, I sleep better.
As for the movements, I too find that interesting.
I give the is 5*****s and highly recommend it. I do not think the price is high given all it does.
Go on ebay, get it for less
$99 is a great price if you use the features. I notice that most people that complain about the price do not have an UP so I'm not sure their criticism is valid. How can you know an item is worth $99 if you don't try it? Clearly, Jen just tested it and has likely not utilized it to its full potential.
UP syncs with other apps like My Fitness Pal and Map My Run. UP takes data from those sources to compile an holistic evaluation of your lifestyle. I find it extremely helpful!
I track everything I eat and I track my runs and other workouts. UP just brings it all together so I better maintain my healthy life. I can certainly understand that people who do not meticulously watch their diet and exercise would find $99 too high of a price to pay and even wonder if the gadget will work. It works for me so…I like it and the price is fine.
It's funny to read people's comments that do not even own a JawboneUP and their negativity. Geeez. If I listened to them, I would not have purchased one. This is one of my favorite gadgets. I find that I am better at getting enough rest at night; I feel refreshed at work and have better concentration. Plus, it integrates with my LoseIt software (I use that to track what I eat) and JawboneUp reminds me to keep active. What did I get out of all of this? A 20+ pound weight loss. Sure, I could have done this on my own, but this has made me accountable to myself. And what better payoff could you ask for with such a small investment. P.S. I have NEVER had any issues or any sort with my JawboneUp.I have a Lifecase for my iPhone, which comes with the headset extention needed to sync the band. Works perfectly.

Holland Roden Gushes Over Her Beloved Pet Pooch Fievel!
Holland Roden pulls off color better than anyone as she attends the Deliver Us From Evil screening held at SVA Theater on Tuesday night (June 24) in New York City.
The 27-year-old Teen Wolf actress recently opened up about her adorable dog Fievel.
PHOTOS: Check out the latest pics of Holland Roden
"Once we started season two of Teen Wolf I started looking for my Fievel," Holland told Peta2. "She's a force to be reckoned with, and I love her every day. It's such an incredible joy. It completely changes your life�having a dog�in the best of ways."
The night before, Holland hit the red carpet at the premiere of The Leftovers held at the NYU Skirball Center.
FYI: Holland is wearing a Philosophy dress, Rupert Sanderson heels, and a Rauwolf clutch.

After leaving my cellular telephone on the counter, and putting some noodles on the stove, i walked into the bathroom so i could go to the bathroom. Because that's what you do in the bathroom. Anyway, When i shut the door, the doorknob came off in my hand. Usually, it wouldn't be that bad because the important part of the doorknob would be on the inside, but unfortunately, it was on the other side. I know this because when i looked down, it wasn't attached to the doorknob in my hand. My day flashed before my eyes. Not going to lie. Kind of a sad, boring day. Ug.
My first instinct was to cry, so i did, for quite a long time.
My second instinct was to use the toilet, since that was the reason i went in there in the first place.
My third instinct was to try and escape out the window. This didn't work out well because a) there was a special plexiglass covering over the window (not even sure why) and b) even if i could get the plexiglass off, there was a bush blocking my way.
My fourth instinct was to give up and kill myself, which i'll admit, i tried, but if you've ever tried to hang yourself with the shower curtain, you'll know that it's not only difficult, but it's not fun in the least.
My fifth instinct was to shout for help, but nobody was home.
My sixth instinct was to break the door down. This didn't work because i didn't even try.
My seventh instinct was to try and open it with odds-and-ends i found around the bathroom, such as shower curtain hangers, toothbrushes, etc...
My eighth instinct was to wait until someone came home, which i would have done, except i had noodles on the stove.
My ninth instinct was to try the fourth one again, which still didn't work.
My tenth and final instinct was to give my third instinct another legitimate shot and bail out the window, which i did. After i stealthfully ripped the plexiglass off the wall, i crawled out the window and through the bush, like a baby escaping from the womb. Double entendre. Zing.
After escaping inconvenience, i quickly took the noodles off the stove, put the doorknob back exactly how it was so that i could share my experience with others, and reflected on what just happened. I realized that it's all about sharing. Sharing is good.

In an article that appeared in the Sunday Telegraph on Dec 27th 2009, Pier Akerman frankly and unapologetically lamented the emptiness of Australian PM Kevin Rudd's character in a scathing commentary on the global warming scam and the apparently failed Copenhagen summit, which, Rudd failed to comment on in the aftermath of the debacle. Akerman's perceptiveness on this occasion was refreshing in the world of the MSM (mainstream media) and its usually pitiful coverage of issues that really matter. He wrote: "Not only did the so-called scientists that Rudd and the UN relied on produce fraudulent data [see Climategate], but they also endeavoured to remove from the literature reproduced on the internet information site Wikipedia—a most unreliable source at best—all scientific data that contradicted their false hypothesis." According to Akerman, climate scientist and Wikipedia editor William Connolly, a member of the team behind the RealClimate website which purported to demonstrate the existence of human-induced global warming, has been shown to have edited more than 5,000 articles that appeared on the Wikipedia site to eliminate solid scientific evidence that disproved the claims embraced by the UN's favoured team. Further, under Rudd, Australia's own peak scientific body, the CSIRO, has seen its international reputation irreparably damaged because it, too, instituted its own bizarre censorship of scientific opinion which challenged that being dictated from the PM's office."
It does not take a genius logician to realise that when a cabal of scientists are trying to convince the public of a supposedly legitimately proved scientific phenomenon, whilst simultaneously suppressing and censoring all evidence to the contrary, that something is seriously amiss. Why play dirty and silence legitimate dissent if your science is sound? The history of scientific corruption and censorship is fertile ground for discussion, but so vast that we need eschew it here. Climategate is a loud and clear reminder that it is alive and well for anyone who had forgotten the fact.
Brilliantly, Akerman proceeds to finish his analysis of the inexplicably high level of popularity Rudd enjoys with this: "Now…Rudd promises to reintroduce his infamous tax bill, still without offering any proof that humans have affected the natural climate cycle of the globe, still without presenting any evidence that anything Australians do (including destroying their economy) will alter the Earth's temperature by one thousandth of a degree. This may be why his popularity remains so high. Australia likes winners – and when it comes to scams, Kevin Rudd is King Con."
In 2009 because of his grounded and sensible intervention in Rudd's plan to introduce a "Draconian new tax regime", based on overhyped and fraudulent scientific data, opposition leader, Tony Abott, achieved something rare in Australian politics: He actually achieved something. A totally insane and unjustifiable new Draconian tax plan failed to manifest thanks in large part to Abott's dissent towards the manufactured 'consensus' regarding AGW. The question many Australians must surely ask themselves now is: "How will Rudd try to next foist such ludicrous tax measures upon us if he doesn't succeed in the short term?"
Years ago, former US government-contracted whistleblower, the late Phil Schneider (who was murdered after he began speaking out on what he knew), described the UN as a "stalking horse" for Global Government. That statement has rung more and more true ever since, demonstrated saliently by the AGW scam designed to induce a gullible global population into accepting a carbon tax on life itself (we are carbon-based life forms, remember?), administered by… an unelected global government; a planetary dictatorship, in other words. The UN in all of this, of course, favoured the fraudulent data provided by the IPCC and its pseudo-scientific con artists, evidently in the hope that the grand AGW hoax would precipitate the changes needed to officially institute a New World Order. Maybe next time, boys. Apparently the public isn't quite as stupid or gullible as its political "leaders" would prefer.
*Note: As an aside, I'd like to express my disgust at the ignorance and/or corruption of many of our politicians. Joe Hockey only a matter of days ago expressed his view on global warming (which I heard on radio), demonstrating a disturbingly wanton disregard for a little thing called factual reality, when he said that, "the science is settled" regarding the purported reality of GW. That qualifies as gross negligence in my view. And THESE are our "representatives"??? Posted by The Grand Illusion at 5:04 AM

Every relationship has its own set of challenges. These challenges are part of the growth of both individuals as well as their relationships. But what could be worse than a challenge that causes suffering to your loved one within him and threatens the very relationship itself? What can you do as a partner to someone who suffers from social anxiety disorder?
Anxiety is the third most prevalent mental health problem in the United States and also the most misunderstood. Social anxiety disorder or social phobia is defined by Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA) as "the extreme fear of being scrutinized and judged by others in social or performance situation." A person suffering from this mental illness ends up avoiding any sort of interaction. In extreme cases, a person can't even get out of the house or make a call as they are overcome by anxiety and panic attack. Other people often take it as just mere shyness or poor social skills or worst just an act. However, Social anxiety disorder is in fact included in the list of mental and psychological disorders in the DSM-5 or the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. It is a mental illness that sometimes manifests and sometimes does not but like any other disease, it can be treated.
Loving someone with social anxiety disorder is indeed a very great challenge. Here are 4 Effective Ways for you to be able to nurture your relationship with someone living with social anxiety disorder:
- Don't identify them with their condition
You should not reduce a person as merely the illness he or she has. It is but one dimension of his entire personality and that too a debilitating one. Be sure to appreciate other person's positive traits. This will help that person to regain a sense of self-confidence based on those more favourable characteristics.
- Avoid making assumptions
When deciding where to spend time together for a date or just to go out, avoid assuming that what you find as enjoyable is also enjoyable for your partner. Although there are times when a person with social anxiety disorder can manage to face other people and seemingly overcome his situation, it is best to consult with your partner if your plan is favourable to him or her.
- Be extra patient
Considering how behavioural shift can escalate in your partner, you must practice more patience. When your partner starts to withdraw from social interactions or experiences panic attacks, muster all the patience you can, only to help the person get through this episode. Your presence and support actually helps lessening the occurrence of these episodes.
- Acceptance is dearly important
Acceptance is always a key to the success of any relationship. When you love a person, you love him or her for who he or she is. You accept both good and the bad. To deal with your partner's social anxiety disorder is a test that you will have to endure to keep your relationship going.

- "I know I broke my oath. I know I'm a deserter. I should have gone back to the Wall and warned them, but... I saw what I saw... I saw the White Walkers."
- ―Will to Eddard Stark
Will was a ranger in the Night's Watch. After an encounter with the White Walkers beyond the Wall, Will deserted the Watch, and was eventually captured and later executed by Ned Stark.
Will is a ranger of the Night's Watch. He was not of noble birth, but was posthumously described by Benjen Stark as a reliable soldier, a "true ranger".
Season 1
A patrol consisting of Will, Gared and Ser Waymar Royce set out into the Haunted Forest beyond the Wall. Will is later found hundreds of miles south of the Wall near Winterfell, apparently having gone renegade. He is apprehended and brought before Lord Eddard Stark for justice. Will claims that his companions have been brutally killed by the White Walkers and he fled in terror. Eddard does not believe the story and executes Will as a deserter, beheading him with his Valyrian steel greatsword, Ice.[1]

Behind the scenes
- After playing the role in the unaired original pilot, it appeared that Webb would be unavailable to reprise the character for re-shoots and would have to be recast. However, it was later confirmed that Webb would indeed be returning to the role.
In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, Will is famed for his skills as a tracker and a hunter, a result of his previous career as a poacher. Nobody can move more silent through the forest than Will. After being caught killing a Mallister buck by Lord Jason Mallister's woodsmen, he chose to take the black over losing a hand. He has been at the Wall for four years when the events of the books begin.
In the TV series, some of Will and Gared's story roles have been switched around from the books.

I'm sure we can all agree on one thing this month , which is that where has the time gone ? May and June have just flown by without passing go or collecting £200. During June I decided that it was time to collect a few fashion bits and pieces for the summer, as majority of my wardrobe still consists of heavy knitted jumpers. ( I'm a slave to winter fashion)! I don't often do Hauls of any kind, with majority of that reason being at present 1. I'm on a student budget and 2. I'm saving up for a house deposit. The pieces of fashion I have chosen are more playful and colourful to match the vibrancy of the bright summer weather. If you wish to find the stores where I bought my items from, just click on the photo and it will send you to the webpage.
Hype T-shirt ( from Topman)
I'm a lover of floral for any day in any season and I fell in love with this garden floral print by "Hype". The Hype collections are found in most Topman stores and I have admired many of their designs, though this shirt really took my fancy. The design consists of a bouquet mingled with garden greenery and the odd butterfly here and there. It is a very bold T-shirt but the white cotton background helps to balance out the clashing colours. ( I've edited the third picture to emphasise the detail of the pattern)
Plaid Shirt from H & M
I love this shirt from H & M as it mixes three colours that would clash against one another if they weren't softened down as they are here. The shirt consists of a neutral tone pink, yellow and light blue for a soft plaid colour combination. I usually wear it buttoned up to the top with a pair of jeans though I could throw it over white T-shirt for a more casual look. I feel that due to the softened tones of colours, the shades may become more faded through general wash and wear, but will just add further to the neutral colour scheme
This currently retails for just under £20.
Nike Trainers - Asos
I have had my eye on a pair of white trainers for some time now and when I spotted this Nike pair detailed in Teal, I had to have them! Further more for my reasoning to have them was that I was able to grab them in the sale. The teal colour is beautiful, but how long I can keep these trainers sparkling white for is another question.
Jack wills- rucksack
I love my current bag but I decided it was time to get a back pack that was colourful and spacious so I can throw together anything that was needed for travel or a get away to the beach. I picked up this Jack wills backpack from the sale, in a bright pillow box red with a contrasting navy panel and navy lining. The bag straps are comfortable and boasts an exterior and hidden interior pocket to keep items such as mobile phone tucked safely away. I'm impressed with the quality of this ruck sac which I expected as always with the Jack wills brand.
White polo shirt - Next
My final high street purchase is this crisp white polo shirt from Next. I previously had a Fred perry white shirt that I would wear with just blue jeans, though it seems to have dissappeared in the depths of my wardrobe . ( I still pray for it's return). I adore the contrast of a crisp clean white shirt against dark blue jeans for the summer, something simple yet stylish. The collar on the polo makes the shirt seem a little more formal and gives some structure around the neck and shoulders.

But, I have a mini-portfolio here. Take a look?
teddY-risation™ has been relocated to a new domain since July 1st, 2005. You may click here to proceed to the new site. For the moment being, if you're interested in my works, you can also scroll down. I have decided to convert this disused blogspot site to a mini-portfolio of mine :)
Hello there. I am Terry and I am a full-time undergraduate based in Singapore. I take photos, write a blog and design websites. I have been taking photographs since I was in Secondary 3, when I got my very first, manual-focus camera. Since then, I've worn out one Pentax Optio digital camera and then immediately moved on to getting a Sony Alpha dSLR to further pursue my interest in photography. Oh, and I do some design work occasionally as well.
Photography Works | Top
The types of photography I'm into are infrared, landscape and food. I'm not very good at portraits yet, with lots of skills and techniques that I am yet to pick up. I do cover events for the university clubs and societies that I join, and those photoshoots are invaluable experiences to me.
Design Works | Top
In my free time, I tinker around with photoshop and try out online tutorials to improve my skills in graphic design. I'd rank my skills as an amateur, since I'm not particularly good at it yet (I've known 15-year-olds churning out God-like works, heh!)
More? | Top
I didn't expect you to have the patience to arrive at this line - but anyway you did. For more of my works and my blog, you should really be visiting the new site. If in doubt, feel free to contact me.

Today I finished reading my first book of the year: Free Air by Sinclair Lewis. Written in 1919, this was a novel about adventuring via automobiles—already an established American pasttime‐as well as a humorous look at the different social classes before the World Wars. In some ways, it was a bizarre mash-up of F.Scott Fitzgerald and Willa Cather where socialites meet farmers. I love how the literature of this era reflects the times, teaching so much about daily aggravations and expectations. Driving back then, by the way, was a chore.
I enjoyed this book quite a bit, for all that it is apparently one of his lesser appreciated novels. I liked his humor and his talent for highlighting human foibles.
The other thing I've been reading in bits and pieces is the latest Indiespensable selection: The Best of McSweeney's. I had previously been entirely unaware of McSweeney's (soooo out of the loop in regards to literary journals!) but got pretty excited upon opening the package for a few reasons. First, the paper quality is divine: a tactile delight! Second, Powell's had six of the authors sign the inside of the book. Third, the dust jacket is a poster in disguise. And ultimately, all the writing has been wonderful thus far. Most of the 600 pages is comprised of short stories, though there are letters, comics, and other goodies interspersed throughout. It might take a little while to get through, but it will be worth it.
What are you starting your year out with? Are you diving into challenges or taking it easy?

Check out . This new service from Yahoo lets build applications from RSS feeds and using a graphical development environment in your browser. For example, a simple application might grab the Google News RSS feed and merge it with a more specialized news feed, sorting the entries and rejecting duplicates.
More complicated pipes might take news feeds and add search results and pictures from different sources. Of course, the result is a feed, which in turn can be put through more pipes.
Pretty cool!

Have some kind of gel in my raw bio and need help identifying and fixing? I have attached a pic what the barrel looked like after I pumped out to run through the drywash system. I have not changed my process and have never seen this stuff before? I installed a new drywash system with new Thermax macro resin, washed bio is dark but it checks good on the 27/3 test, I can't get the soap test indicator solution to turn blue so I assume that soap content is really very low, and there doesn't appear to be any gel in the drywashed bio . The Phlipp test, however, appears to have a heavy layer of glycerides lying on top of the indicator solution. The raw bio, where the gel is at, passes the 27/3 test and soap content indicates 608 ppm. I am at a loss as to what causes this and am not running any until I can figure it out and fix it.
Here is my process:
Day 1
Raw oil settles for 4-6 days, drain water and sludge (usually 65 gal. batch of good oil left)
Pump through 200 micron barrel top filter into clean barrel and into processor
Circulate and heat to 125F for 1.5 hrs.
Day 2
Drain any water etc., usually not much, maybe half gallon or so
Start heat and circulate, titrate (avg. titration of 1.75)
Mix methoxide (21% methanol, 5.5g base + titration of NaOH)
Mix and process for 3.5 hrs. with two 720gph pumps at 135F
I use a single stage process with no prewash of any kind at this time
Day 3
Drain glycerin
Circulate through 50 then 5 micron bag filters in series for 1.5 hrs.
Bubble wash for 6 hrs. usually at night then shut off in the morning
Day 4
Drain glycerin, usually no more than a cup or so
Pump to drywash barrel as in the picture
Start pumping to the drywash towers and into the finished barrel.
I pump through a 10 micron GR filter as I am pumping to the drywash barrel, again leaving the drywash towers to the finished fuel barrel and through a 2 micron canister filter Bio-Tek as I am pumping to my truck or tractor.
I would appreciate any help I can get, Thanks! Sorry so long but I know the process questions would be ask anyways to do any effective troubleshooting.
Picture1.jpg (42 Kb, 50 downloads) Gel in raw bio
if there is a lot of water that has accumulated in your biodiesel (if left outside and water gets in) and you can see that there is a layer of water on the bottom of your bio then it could be microbial growth (if it has been left alone for a while) microbes grow at the interface between the water and the bio but could expand into the bio phase.
OR it could be that any remaining methanol in your biodiesel has evaporated out and what is causing your bio to gel is soap. This assumes your drywash towers didnt catch it all. To test this take some of your sample bio like 500ml and heat it it up above 150F to drive off the methanol (be careful methanol fumes are harmful/flammable) and let heat for about an hour to be safe. let it cool and sit for a couple hours. if it gels up there is soap.
I don't think water or growth is an issue, I don't leave anything outside it's all inside and temp controled and had only sit about a week before I sent to the drywash towers. The gel is in my raw bio before it is drywashed, currently don't see any gel in the finished bio that's been drywashed. I'm just afraid to use the finished bio since it shows glycerides, according to the Phlipp test. It passes the 27/3 test and it shows no soap with the soap test. I don't quite understand that though, I show no soap with the soap test but show heavy glycerides in the Phlipp test, I thought glycerides is what soap was??
I only bubble for about 6 hrs. could this be excess methanol and glycerides? If so what is the best way to salvage this stuff. Thanks for the test, I will try it tonight hopefully (may be Sat before I get to it) and report back. Would this show soap that the soap test doesn't?
If you acidified a small sample and it turned to liquid, soap would be the culprit..
Sounds like soap to me too. As the methanol is driven out of the BD the soap drops out of solution. This can take some time depending on how well you have removed the methanol. If you do as sinbad says and add a little bit of acid to the gel, it should liquify and then you will have a mixture of BD that was trapped in the soap and FFA's. If you weigh equal amounts of the liquified gel and the BD, they should be almost the same.
As far as using the BD as it is, it depends on what you drive. I drive a Dodge Cummins, so I wouldn't be concerned at all.
I agree, sounds like soap to me to.
The gel is common when using excess NAoH. Check that your titration solution is still accurate and try a base of 5 instead of 5.5 and see if your yield goes up and soap down.
In my opinion this is a waste of your time. Until you get all the methanol out there is nothing to filter. I would just demeth it and then let it settle for a day or as long as you can stand it then filter it or just draw off the top of your settling barrel into your towers.
Simple schematic for a pump and heater control with a high limit
Sensor for the biodiesel/glycerin layer
Thanks for all the ideas and help, after looking at it a little more I believe it is soap as well. Just for my own curiosity I took a sample of the bio/gel combo and reprocessed 500ml with 1/2g NaOH and 17ml of methanol. The reaction was complete no more glycerin, hence passed the 27/3 test, but it did turn to all gel. I have suspected my bubbling is in adequate to get most of the methanol out and consequently get all the soap out. In a 110 gal cone bottom tank I was using two wood bubble blocks attached to an aquarium pump. I started rewashing the bio and processed another batch last night so I plan on redoing my bubbler. I plan on making a ring of vinyl tubing with a cross member, drill holes all around in the tubing and attach two input lines, one on each side and place it about 6 inches off the bottom of the tank. Does that sound sufficient, any ideas or pics from air bubblers out there I would appreciate it.
Sorry about the confusion you are correct I misplaced the filtering in my process above, it is the last step after I bubble wash then pump to the drywash barrel.

Irish Roots & Rants
With St. Patrick's Day on the horizon we thought it fitting to share why Newfoundland culture is brimming with Irish influences – here within are some of our favourites:
The Irish migrations to Newfoundland represent the oldest and most enduring connections between Ireland and Canada! Between the 1770's – 1780's more than 100 ships and 5,000 men cleared Irish ports for the fishery. These migrations were one of the most substantial movement of Irish across the Atlantic in the 18th century. In Newfoundland they created a distinctive subculture and their descendants emerged as fully-fledged Newfoundlanders! The Newfoundland & Labrador Heritage Society have a great piece on the Irish in Newfoundland. Check it out here!
Do you know what a "scrob" is? How about a "sleveen"? There are more varieties of English spoken in Newfoundland and Labrador than anywhere else in the world! Dating back four centuries, our accents are flavoured by Southern Ireland. Some Irish settlers only spoke Irish Gaelic. It disappeared from the island early in the 20th century, but has left a number of traces – you'll even find a Dictionary of Newfoundland English that contains hundreds of words and phrases you'll find nowhere else!
The Irish Loop, located on the southeastern part of the Avalon Peninsula, is named to reflect over 400 years of history by Irish immigrant settlers. The Loop, as it is more commonly called, is the heart of Irish culture and heritage in Newfoundland and Labrador. Interesting fact: in 1620 The Mayflower stopped in Renews (on the Irish Loop) for supplies on its way to America! Make sure to stay tuned as this summer we will be taking in The Irish Loop Drive: an adventure to some of the most exciting history, culture, and natural experiences you will find anywhere! This area has the world's largest puffin colony, the oldest continuous permanent settlement in Canada, a picnic to be enjoyed with amazing scenery, and a unique culture that reflects the settlement of Irish immigrants over the past 400 years.
In Newfoundland, St. Patricks Day is a public holiday and we celebrate in style! Global Greening, an initiative by Tourism Ireland, sees a host of major landmarks and iconic sites across the world turn green around St Patrick's Day. The Greenings are emblematic of a relationship that Ireland has built with countries around the world that take part out of a spirit of friendship, respect and partnership. Signal Hill National Historic Site goes green for the celebrations! We're in great company – sharing the green spotlight with such famous sights as The London Eye, The Empire State Building, The Leaning Tower of Pisa and even Sleeping Beauty's castle at Disneyland Paris!
Here in Newfoundland we are proud to celebrate our Irish NL Culture and promote our historical roots. Just 4 1/2 hours will get you from Dublin to St. John's — celebrating the Irish/NL connection has never been easier! What are you waiting for? Come for a visit – you may bump into a few cousins.
