BrewDog is back at it, taking another stab a precisely defining "craft beer" as it applies to European countries. In October, brewery co-founders James Watt and Martin Dickie wrote on their blog that having a clear definition has helped craft beer become so popular in the United States.
After their first attempt was met with both praise and criticism from the blogosphere, the two have offered up an amended take on the definition of craft beer.
"Legal definitions are everywhere and are designed to protect a product's reputation from poor imitations," they wrote. "'Bourbon', 'Whisky' and 'Champagne' are 3 examples where they have protected premium drinks from cheaper imitations and helped both the consumer and the category in the process."
Their definition, which, in part, requires a beer to be brewed at original gravity, also calls for all ingredients to be listed on the label, and for the brewing company to be less than 20 percent owned by a company that operates a non-craft brewer.
Watt and Dickie note that their proposal for a definition of craft beer would need to be recognized by other U.K. craft brewers and the Society of Independent Brewers before it can hold any official weight.
While the European brewers are attempting to find a generally accepted definition for craft beer, in the U.S. there are barely enough words to categorize all the different styles available. One relatively unknown, but emerging, style is sour.
An annual report by restaurant consultant group Baum and Whiteman, which measures trends in the foodservice industry, has found that sour beers are growing in popularity.
"Sophisticated beer drinkersÔǪ are favoring beer with a sour taste, responding to craft brewers who have begun inoculating beers with wild yeasts," according to the report.
And how can you be sophisticated without a nice cigar in hand? While the latest from Ted's Cigars isn't meant to be paired with a sour necessarily, it was definitely rolled up with a brew in mind.
No, the latest stogie from Ted's Cigars, of Louisville, Ky., is meant to be enjoyed with the recently released 2013 batch of Samuel Adams Utopias. The cigar came about through a partnership between Ted's and Boston Beer Co.
"Cigars and craft beer, particularly a complex brew like Utopias, have more in common than most people would imagine and complement each other quite well," said Ted Jackson, president of Ted's Cigars in a press release. "Aficionados of both cigars and beer know that subtle flavors and delicate touches can elevate the drinking or smoking experience tenfold. It's exciting for us to work with such an innovative brewery to create these one-of-a-kind cigars."
However, not all innovative ventures in the world of drinking involve actual consumption.
New technology may be able to help bars and restaurants keep better track of how much beer is left in kegs. According to the New York Times, SteadyServ Technologies, has created a small, doughnut shaped scale of sorts, that when placed beneath a keg, keeps track of what remains inside it. A restaurant owner will receive a message on an app, informing them of just how much beer they've got left.
So feasibly, rather than a restaurant telling its patrons on social media that they've got limited supplies, they could quite literally narrow it down to the specific number of pints of a specific brew they can still pour.
Lastly, we go from the future of beer, all the way to its roots.
The Atlantic took a long look at the integral role that women have played in the 4,500-year history of suds. The article touches on the idea that Brewbound explored earlier this week about sexism in the craft beer industry, but focuses specifically on how beer, which was initially brewed by mostly women, became what it is today.
It explains, "as we shifted from an agricultural-based to an industrial-based economy, beer brewing left the privacy of the home and became another commercial, large-scale product run almost entirely by men."
The article adds, "After the colonization of America, women were the family brewers, crafting rich beers from corn, pumpkins, artichokes, oats, wheat, honey, and molasses. Settlers of the colonies drank large quantities of beer as a nutritional break from a diet based largely of salted, smoked and dried meats."
Sounds like a Thanksgiving day menu. Speaking of, supposedly there's this guy up in New Hampshire who has found feeding beer to turkeys works to make them extra juicy and flavorful.

Essential Things To Know Before Getting Firms Offering Water Heater Rentals
There is big difference between renting and buying water heaters, and it is important to know what seems to work pretty well for you and how long one will be living in that house. Picking a water heater rental company should be a calculated move so that there are no problems that are not sorted. You have to ensure that your contractor is not only verified but also registered to operate in your area.
Determine what suits your needs and how much water your house needs before knowing what will work well for you and if one is already using a rental machine, consider upgrading your provider. You should ask questions and get answers to each before committing to working with any company, and one has a chance of knowing how much hot water that heater provides. It can sometimes be daunting switching providers, however, be open-minded and be ready to start doing your search and finding referrals is always a perfect place to start.
Regina water heater rentals
If your water heater seems to be on the verge of failing, one should be listing some of the water heater rentals that one can reach and their rates. It is essential for one to rent, if you are the type that keeps on moving considering that buying a new one every time one move will not be cost-effective. Rental heaters are flexible, and one does not have to worry about their water heater considering you have a chance of giving the rental contract to the new homeowner if interested.
Every homeowner should work towards getting a reliable provider who will come to your aid no matter the situation, thus ensuring one will never stay stuck. Renting these machines seems to be eliminating a lot of ownership problems that individuals try to run away from; therefore, get a company whose rates are affordable and get an opportunity to enjoy these services always. These firms will install water heaters for free and when it comes to repairing or replacing, you will not be required to contribute any amount of money, thus giving one a chance to enjoy these services.
Technicians should have the skills that make one enjoy their services and those who will be in a position to solve most of the problems clients could be experiencing. For an individual who thrives to have peace of mind, searching for water heater rentals serves the purpose, so take your time in doing the search. Know that a good water heater rental company will not only give you the right system but also make sure your energy bills are regulated.

I've loved the Diablo franchise since it first came out. I spent an embarrassing amount of time alone in my room playing both Diablo I and II growing up, and was naturally excited when III was finally announced. I was part of the closed beta, and enjoyed the small bit of Act I we were allowed to see and test. However, when the game was finally released, I didn't spend nearly as much time playing it as I thought I would. (Though, naturally, I picked up the expansion when it came out, too. And have both on console as well.) Despite getting in on the "ground floor" of the game, my Paragon level is currently, shamefully somewhere in the mid-60s. In short: I haven't been very committed to this game. Until very recently, when the most recent patch was released and Season 4 started. Continue reading Fun With Seasons
Excuses, Excuses: When is "Casual" Just Another Word for "Bad"?
The "Casual" vs "Hardcore" debate is by no means a new one–in fact, it's been pretty well done to death by everyone and their Perky Pug by now. People have also gone to greater lengths than your average Old Navy ad campaign to convince us that "Casual" is still a respectable label, and that "Casual" does not inherently mean "unskilled."
But you know… sometimes, it does. Continue reading Excuses, Excuses: When is "Casual" Just Another Word for "Bad"?
A Quick Note on Temple of Kotmogu
In Temple of Kotmogu, why do people act like orbs will give them herpes if they pick them up?
I was in a random the other day on my Paladin that started off fairly normal; my team was doing a decent amount of damage and the Alliance wasn't able to hang on to orbs for very long, but every time an orb-carrier would go down, I'd wait expectantly for a pick-up alert that simply never came. So, I'd drop whatever I was doing and trot to the nearest free orb and pick it up. By the end of the game, I'd carried an orb 5 different times. The next highest number of carries on my team was 2. There were a lot of "wouldn't touch an orb if you paid me"s.
Listen, here's the thing. I know you're afraid. I know your gear is probably crap. It doesn't matter. Cowboy up.
What people don't seem to understand is that Temple is not like Warsong Gulch or Twin Peaks. You don't have to be a tank to carry effectively on this map. In the rated version of this map, most teams don't even bother running a tank. It's whoever is closest to the orb spawn, go grab it before the other team does.
The basic understanding here is that if you're carrying an orb, you're going to get splattered spectacularly across the pavement. It will happen. So while being able to carry an orb for an extended period of time is nice work if you can get it, the easiest way to go is simply to lay as many hands on that thing as possible–it doesn't matter who is carrying it at a given time, what matters is how long your team has possession.
Which means it doesn't matter if you drop it, as long as someone else is there to pick it right back up again and keep racking up the points for your team.
So do me a favor: if an orb gets returned, GO GET IT.
Every time I see someone walk past an orb without picking it up, a tiny piece of my soul dies.
Preserve my soul. Pick up orbs.

Explore four of Tasmania's islands – Macquarie, Flinders, Bruny and King – where you can escape reality and immerse yourself in the sparkling beaches, rugged ranges and amazing flora and fauna these floating idylls have to offer.
Discover more about Tasmania's off-shore retreats from sweeping beaches, dramatic coastlines and abundant wildlife.
Macquarie Island
Macquarie Island, known as 'Macca' to local Tasmanians, is an extraordinary subantarctic island located around 1500 kilometres (930miles) south of Tasmania – literally halfway to the Antarctic continent.
Macquarie Island is unlike other, more well-known islands along the Tasmanian coast. It isn't populated by humans, meaning it's a truly unique wildlife experience. Access to Macquarie Island is by expedition cruise only – it's a mid-way stopover point for long voyages which depart Tasmania's capital city of Hobart heading for East Antarctica, or is a destination in its own right for shorter subantarctic voyages which typically focus on bird watching.
Macquarie Island is one of only a very few islands in this rugged part of the world where native fauna can breed - around 3.5 million seabirds and 80,000 elephant seals arrive on Macquarie Island each year to breed and moult, as well as a growing population of fur seals and between 25,000 and 40,000 King penguins gather on the shore and slopes at Lusitania Bay on the east coast of the island.
Flinders Island
Flinders Island, located off mainland Tasmania's North East Coast, is part of the Furneaux group of islands that stretch across Bass Strait between Tasmania and mainland Australia. Take a break from the world and enjoy what Flinders Island has to offer – explore the rugged mountain ranges, fossick for Killiecrankie diamonds, relax on the beaches and interact with unique Australian wildlife.
A selection of must-do experiences:
On land: Flinders Island is homne to some awe inspiring mountain views. If you want the biggest mountain and best views on the island, Mt Strzelecki is it. Set aside a day for this one as it's a four to five-hour walk to the top, but the views are well worth it. Along the way, you'll also meet local wildlife like the long-nosed potoroo (part of the rat-kangaroo family), the endangered forty-spotted pardolate (one of the smallest birds in Australia) and the rare 'burrowing crayfish', which can be found in creeks higher up in the range.
Pack a picnic hamper with some quality local produce (head to Flinders Island Fresh in Whitemark who will look after your needs), grab a rug, drive towards Allport Beach and look out for the Castle Rock walk to take in sunset
Visit Derek the Wombat. If you're unfamiliar, Flinders Isalnd is home to a little wombat joey named Derek who captured the hearts of thousands when photographer and Friend of Australia Sean Scott filmed Derek and posted the video to Facebook. You can find out more here.
On sea: Booking a diving tour is the perfect way to get a good look at the amazing marine wildlife in the waters of Flinders Island. Fish, dolphins and seals make up the underwater paradise, and seeing first hand the exquisite colours of the marine environment, feeling the invigoration of the cold water on your skin and being just centimeters (inches) away from beautiful dolphins will be an unforgettable experience.
North East River is a favourite for fishing and you can also book a Rockjaw Tour to catch the famous Flinders Island crayfish.
Also try: 4WD fishing and an island BBQ lunch or a round of golf overlooking the beautiful scenery at the Flinders Island Sports Club.
Bruny Island
Take spectacular cliff-top walks, spot wildlife and soak up history on rugged Bruny Island, near Hobart. One of the four significantly populated islands off Hobart, Bruny Island has a population of 600 and is about 360 square kilometres (138 square miles) in size.
Bruny Island houses the South Bruny National Park, which provides an amazing Tasmanian wilderness experience.
Key experiences:
On land: explore the wilderness with one of Bruny Islands many bushwalks like the Labillardiere Peninsula circuit or the quick Mavista Nature Walk.
Keep an eye out for the white wallaby. If you're a nature and bird lover, try the Inala nature tour which are tailored to suit your interests.
'The Neck' Bruny's landmark viewpoint is an absolute must see for visitors to the island. Make your way up the large staircase for an incredible view of Adventure Bay.
Bruny Island is a great food and wine destination. On the island you can indulge in hand-made fudge, chocolate, truffles, berries, cheese and fresh oysters. Take the Cape Queen Elizabeth walk and enjoy some amazing Bruny Island Cheese (a must visit on the island) and Get Shucked oysters on the beach.
On sea: join an eco-cruise and explore the coastline. Here you will get the opportunity to see Bruny Island's fur seals and fairy penguins.
Accommodation: You can experience nature at its best and camp on the island, bring your own caravan or stay in one of the many cottages available on the island.
King Island
King Island lies 80 kilometres north-west of mainland Tasmania and and is beautifully rugged and windswept. It has over 145 kilometres of coastline that stretches along the Bass Strait. The island is 64 kilometres long and 26 kilometres wide and is home to a unique array of seabirds and wildlife lie the rare orange-bellied parrot. The Island is well-known for its produce - beef and dairy farms cover the island (King Island cheese is a must), and the fresh seafood is famously good.
Key experiences:
On land: King Island is now home to three world-class golf courses – Ocean Dunes, Cape Wickham and King Island Golf Club. If golf is your thing, this is the place to be.
If you like to explore on foot, take one of King Islands many walking trails. They range from guided and self-guided tours that will take you off the beaten track to some of the islands best spots – from spotting penguins to exploring the island's delicious food. Cape Wickham Lighthouse is a must-see, and can be worked into a walking tour of your choice. The lighthouse is the southern hemisphere's tallest lighthouse and sits on the northern tip of King Island.
Another must-do is to explore the shipwrecks. King Island's coast is stormy and rugged and the remains of many ships are buried at sea. The partial remains of the only shipwreck you can see from the land (the Shannon ship wreck) is somewhat ironically located on one of the most beautiful and peaceful beaches on the island, Yellow Rock Beach. Getting to the beach involves a ten-minute walk on a sandy track over a small hill. Parts of the track overlook beautiful Yellow Rock River, which flows directly onto the beach.
On Sea: avid surfers and kite surfers will feel right at home here. King Island has long been known to surfers all over to have great waves and has numerous surf breaks to choose from, including the well-known Martha Lavinia beach. King Island Surf Safari offer tours of 3 to 5 people that include a chartered aircraft, accommodation on the island and 4WD to access to all the great surfing spots.

The experience on the ground demonstrates that from time to time, the environment in which children are raised significantly affects their intellectual, physical, social and emotional development. Environmental factors that have been identified as placing children at risk for poor development include the following, among others:
- Poverty.
- Low parental involvement in shaping the future of their children.
- Crime.
- Substance Abuse.
The role of parents is paramount in the development of healthy children. Parents who are able to employ positive parenting practices and create nurturing homes and harmonious family life are a precious resource. A society that supports and enables parents in their most important capacity of raising children is making a worthwhile investment in the future of its citizens.

IBM is introducing support for Microsoft's Windows PowerShell scripting language in its WebSphere MQ technology.
PowerShell is a command-line shell and scripting language designed to improve IT professionals' productivity. It features an administration-focused scripting language, more than 130 standard command-line tools, as well as syntax and utilities to help users more easily control system administration and accelerate automation.
"This has been far too long coming, but finally you can administer WebSphere MQ systems from Windows PowerShell," said Dale Lane, a software engineer at IBM's Hursley Laboratories in England, in a Dec. 5 blog. "An extension for WebSphere MQ containing thirty-eight new PowerShell cmdlets is being released as 'MO74: WebSphere MQ - Windows PowerShell library.' "
A cmdlet is a lightweight command used in the PowerShell environment. The PowerShell run-time executes cmdlets within automation scripts.
Further reading
PowerShell, released by Microsoft in 2006, is available for Windows XP Service Pack 2, Windows Server 2003 and Windows Vista and has been built into Windows Server 2008 as an optional feature.
With IBM's support, PowerShell can also now be used with WebSphere MQ, IBM's MOM (message-oriented middleware) offering. WebSphere MQ allows independent and potentially nonconcurrent applications on a distributed system to communicate with one another.
PowerShell provides a hosting mechanism with which the PowerShell run-time can be embedded in other applications. That can leverage PowerShell functionality to implement certain operations, including those exposed via the graphical interface.
Jeffrey Snover, a Windows Management Partner architect at Microsoft, lauded IBM's effort on PowerShell. "A lot of people are quick to say how much PowerShell looked to Unix for inspiration, but for some reason people don't pick up on my statements about how important the AS/400 CL [command language] and VMS DCL [Digital Command Language for Digital Equipment's VMS operating system] models were in the conceptual model for PowerShell," Snover said. "The bottom line here is that this industry has a long line of superstar engineers, and we all benefit from their excellent work."
Snover said he hopes to see more IBM products support PowerShell. "I'll bet you a ton of money that their services organization is going to love this as well," he said. "We think services organizations are going to be huge beneficiaries of PowerShell because it makes it quick and easy to create a custom, production-quality customer solution."

Jean Sobon, Gravitation, collage, 10" x 13"
For the past three months we have been working extremely hard moving the Center, cleaning up the old space (imagine what a job it was after 17 busy years) and renovating the building at 839 South 5th Street. Working with a shoestring budget we created two galleries, changed configuration of the walls, laid down and finished new floors, painted the entire space and are about to install spiffy track lighting. These are just the big projects – it is hard to account for all the mundane and detailed tasks that have also been completed. We would have never been able to accomplish all this without the help and contribution of our artist-friends. They dedicated a lot of their time and talent and we will never be able to fully pay back our debt. Over 70 people spent uncountable hours cleaning, hauling garbage and ripping out old tile. It's been a truly extraordinary effort. We are thankful to them all!

With so many dual stick shooters in the App Store, a new one isn't always heralded with the greatest excitement. Darkside is one dual stick space shooter that definitely deserves your excitement as it's a bit like Meteor Blitz on iOS, and Super Stardust on PS3. You play on various small 3D planets, and blast away all of the asteroids and enemies flying about. You traverse the circumference of the planet always looking for things to blast, and the movement in 3D space is superb.
The game is packed with content as there are 100 different missions to play that provide different objectives including survival, protection, and asteroid destruction. The game also includes a survival mode with one life, and an arcade mode with three lives. No matter what mode you choose, you're presented with over the top action with a gorgeous design. Every asteroid and enemy you blast creates a massive explosion that pushes all of the pixels on your retina display.
The 3D engine is top notch, and it's intrinsic to the gameplay, not just solely for the look of the game. As you're traveling across the surface of the planet, and blasting away enemies, you get to find all kinds of power-ups to really outfit your ship with over the top weaponry. Your ship can end up firing in every direction, and it further makes the screen shine, and this feels like a game that actually takes advantage of the power of the latest iOS devices. The entire experience feels like a 3D version of the classic Asteroids, though the missions do blend together somewhat with little variability and variation like the original arcade game.
Darkside (Free, Universal) revitalizes the dual stick genre, and offers up one of the best action experiences on the platform making it a should buy. Darkside is also free to play and try, with a single $0.99 in-app purchase to unlock everything in the game.

After returning home from a little trip to Las Vegas, I was feeling leery about returning to the kitchen. Little sleep, the hot desert weather and one red-eye plane ride later, I began to think I forgot how to cook. But after indulging in too much good food & drink, my body was craving some healthy home cooking (and also a few more In-N-Out burgers but since we don't have them on the East Coast, I quickly got over that urge…)
This is the last Gwyneth Paltrow recipe for a long time, I promise!!! This is a part of her "elimination diet" recipes. You can read more about it at her website: Goop.com. And after days of eating in excess, this vegetarian, easy on the stomach meal was BADLY needed. Badly.

July 1st in history:
Canada celebrates its version of the 4th of July on this day, marking the date it became a dominion of the British Empire on July 1st, 1867.
It was on Dominion Day of 1980 that "O Canada" officially became the country's national anthem.
Twenty-year-old Prince Charles was crowned Prince of Wales by his mother in a ceremony at a Welsh castle on July 1st, 1969. On that same day, future Princess of Wales Diana Spencer was celebrating her eighth birthday.
In a 1982 TV movie about Charles and Diana, the Queen Mother was played by two-time Oscar winner Olivia de Havilland. At the time of her 100th birthday on July 1st, 2016, de Havilland — best known as Melanie in "Gone With the Wind" — was the oldest living winner of an acting Oscar.
It's also the birthday of Canadian actress Genevieve Bujold (born 1942) who received an Oscar nomination for playing a royal wife, Anne Boleyn, to Richard Burton's Henry VIII in "Anne of the Thousand Days." Fellow Canadian Dan Aykroyd was an Oscar nominee for "Driving Miss Daisy." Aykroyd was born on this day in 1952, and became famous as an original cast member on "Saturday Night Live." His most popular characters include Elwood Blues of the Blues Brothers, alien driving instructor Beldar Conehead, and Ray Stantz in the original "Ghostbusters" films.
March 5th in history:
Two famous show-business deaths on March 5th: John Belushi and Patsy Cline, who were both in their early 30s when they died. Comedian Belushi was found dead of a drug overdose on this day in 1982. Cline and other country singers were killed in a 1963 plane crash in Tennessee.
John Belushi once played an alien named Kuldorth in a "Coneheads" sketch on "Saturday Night Live." On the day Belushi died in '82, a Soviet spacecraft called Venera 14 landed on the surface of Venus, surviving the heat and atmospheric pressure of the planet for nearly an hour to take photographs.
A milestone in flight on March 5th, 1912: It was the first time that a dirigible, or zeppelin, was used for military purposes, when Italy sent a dirigible behind Turkish lines on a spy mission.
Led Zeppelin performed "Stairway to Heaven" for the first time in public in Belfast, Northern Ireland, on March 5th, 1971. The band's bassist, John Paul Jones, says audience members were bored by the song because they had never heard it before.

|Puree: One 15-ounce can plain pumpkin purée (not pumpkin pie filling) 2/3 cup sugar 12 ounces (1 1/2 cups) bottle Samuel Adams Harvest Pumpkin Ale 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice Bread: 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar 1/2 cup canola oil 2 large eggs 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon baking powder Confectioners sugar 1. To make the puree: In a medium-sized bowl, stir together the pumpkin purée, sugar, ale, and pumpkin pie spice. Set aside. 2. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan. 3. To make the bread: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the sugar and oil on medium speed. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, mixing after each addition. 4. Stop the mixer, add 1 cup of the purée, and then, with the mixer on medium-low speed, beat the mixture for 4 to 5 minutes or until well mixed, light and fluffy. 5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, pumpkin pie spice, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. 6. Add the dry ingredients to the bowl and mix on low speed for about 1 minute or until the batter is well mixed. Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan. 7. Bake for about 1 hour or until a cake tester or kitchen knife inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean. The top of the loaf may crack, which is normal. If the tester comes out with batter clinging to it, bake for 5 to 8 minutes longer or until the tested comes out clean. 8. Let the loaf cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes. Turn the pan over and remove the loaf. Let it cool completely, dust with confectioners sugar, and serve. *Makes one 9-inch loaf.

Brazzers has really been stepping up their game lately. With the Brazzers House, and them getting everyone together, it seems to be really taking off. They've been doing a lot of story line stuff, where scenes have different parts to them, and lead into other scenes, so you end up with a few part 1s, part 2s, etc. I don't know who's sitting back in their bunker writing these scenes up, but I have to say, they've been pretty amusing so far, so job well done. Another thing that's stepped up for them lately is their production. Well, for porn, the production is pretty high at least. Take for instance, today's scene.

text: Round Two of the 2016 Formula 1 World Championship is held in the original crown jewel of Middle Eastern motorsport, the Bahrain Grand Prix. In recent years, it's elevated itself into the category of a "must-watch" event, staging some of the most exciting battles and frantic finishes in recent memory. The opening round of the championship was already a great show - Championship leader Nico Rosberg got the better of Lewis Hamilton, Sebastian Vettel had the pace to win, Romain Grosjean took Driver of the Day honours for a sensational debut at Haas, and Toro Rosso's young duo of Verstappen and Sainz pulled no punches on each other. There was also an appalling wreck early in the race involving two-time World Champion Fernando Alonso, who walked away from one of the most visibly destroyed race cars that most of us had ever seen. But further tests after the crash concluded that he'd sustained injuries to his chest that would not allow Alonso, the winningest driver in Bahrain GP history, to be cleared to race. So who takes over at McLaren Honda at Bahrain? Why, that'd be none other than the reigning GP2 Series champion - and RaceDepartment alum - Stoffel Vandoorne, who becomes the 24th Belgian driver to race in Formula 1. Rated by a number of observers as the top Formula 1 prospect, 24-year-old Vandoorne already has a record of success in Bahrain - in two visits to the island in the Gulf as a GP2 driver, Vandoorne won the main feature race each year. He will be rushing over from a Super Formula test in Japan, to compete in Bahrain on short notice - but Vandoorne will be extremely motivated to get into the points for McLaren on debut. Then, next month, he makes his Super Formula debut. For the last two years, Lewis Hamilton has won the Bahrain Grand Prix, but he's not had it easy at the end by any means. Nico Rosberg pushed him with all of his worth to the victory in the closing laps back in 2014. Last year, a brake issue saw Hamilton rapidly lose pace over the final laps, and Kimi Raikkonen nearly came back from an insurmountable deficit to win his first race for Ferrari since 2009. Raikkonen has had a somewhat lackluster return to Ferrari on the whole, and his 2016 campaign got off to a heated start - quite literally, as his car caught fire. And while he's never won at Bahrain in ten career starts, he's finished second in three of the last four races. And now we know that Ferrari are closer to matching Mercedes' pace than initially thought in the off-season - could this finally be the Iceman's year to win it? He'll face tough competition within his own team - Sebastian Vettel, third in Melbourne, has won here twice. Further down the order, Force India are bringing wholesale upgrades to Bahrain for the VJM09 - one that could hopefully see them repeat their heroics of 2014, where Nico Hulkenberg finished fifth, and Sergio Perez finished third. Renault also arrive with engine upgrades, hoping to get Kevin Magnussen and the refreshingly competitive(!) Jolyon Palmer into the points this time around. Then there's the issue of that qualifying format. Yeah buddy, it's back! The hope for a much better "show" in the time trials than the one seen in Melbourne rests on the teams and strategists now having a degree of familiarity with the new format and giving their drivers a chance to perform within the constraints of the 90-second elimination windows. The Bahrain GP is part of a colossal weekend of racing around the world, and even with the recent and, frankly, quite valid talk of the questionable direction the sport has been led into, this should be another thrilling race to look forward to. Schedule (all times GMT) Free Practice 1: 11:00-12:30 Free Practice 2: 15:00-16:30 Free Practice 3: 12:00-13:00 Qualifying: 15:00-16:00 Race (57 Laps): 15:00

Beirut: Syria`s state news agency says rebels fighting to topple the government have set fire to three oil wells.
The news agency SANA said today that the fires would cause a daily loss of 4,670 barrels of oil and 52 cubic meters of natural gas.
It accused "terrorists," the government`s term for rebels, of setting the fires after fighting among themselves over how to divide the oil.
Rebels waging a civil war against President Bashar Assad have seized large areas of territory in Syria`s oil-rich east, including a number of oil fields.
Although rebels lack the ability to exploit the wells, their loss represents a setback to the cash-strapped government they are trying to topple.
SANA said rebels have set fire to a total of nine wells in recent months.

It was double the celebration for Mariah Carey over the weekend.
The Grammy Award-winning singer spent Mother's Day weekend with her ex-husband, America's Got Talent star Nick Cannon, and their twins Moroccan and Monroe at their 6th birthday party.
"#happybirthday to #demkids … again ;)," the Hero hitmaker, 48, Instagrammed the family photo.
In another snapshot, she wrote, "Ooh darling cause you'll always be #dembabies."
Reportedly, Carey and Cannon might be getting back together.
"There seems to be hope that they will get back together permanently," a source said. "Mariah and Nick are getting along great. Nick spends most of his time with Mariah and the kids. Mariah is great with Nick around. There seems to be hope that they will get back together permanently."
The friendly exes addressed the rumors in an interview with ET.
"We're together when it counts," Carey said. "We're together for the kids. And I think that's the most important thing."
Cannon added: "It's so perfect right now honestly, I'm working on being the best me that I can possibly be and from that I'm working on being the best father that I can be and that's a plate full right there. I love her, I adore her, that's always going to be my dream girl but I think as mature adults I think we just operate better with the way things are right now."
The pair celebrated their twins' sixth birthday on April 30.

A Tenon and Mortise joint is a traditional wood joint which provides a very strong hold. It also has the ability to sustain variation in temperature and humidity by not allowing expansion and contraction between the wooden joints.
Things you need:
- Two separate blocks of wood (for creating Mortise and Tenon from each)
- Pencil
- Chisel and Hammer
- Marking gauge
- Saw
Step by step guide on creating a Tenon and Mortise joint:
Marking the height and width of the Tenon
- Arrange two blocks of wood (mortise and a Tenon) as shown in the image below. Typically, a Tenon's thickness ranges from 1/3 to 1/2 of the wooden stock from which it protrudes.
- Align the two block of woods with each other and mark the points on Block of wood for the mortise which represents the width of the Block of wood for the Tenon.
- Next, you want to measure the height of the Tenon (or the depth of Mortise). Mark the points on the Block of wood of Tenon for its height.
- Now you have marked the height of the Tenon on one side, extend it on all the four sides of the block of wood with the help of a Marking Gauge, as shown in below images.
Creating the Tenon (The Protruded Part)
- Hold the chisel perfectly in the center of the smaller side of the Block of wood (from which you are going to make the Tenon).
- Align the Dual Marking Gauge with the chisel in such a way that that the inward and outward beveled blade coincides with the side boundary of the chisel. To understand check below image.
- After that, draw the lines on the Block of wood with the help of the dual marking gauge.
- Marking the lines perfectly on the Block of Wood (For making Tenon) should produce something like the below image.
Now it's time to remove the part of the Block of wood so that only the Tenon remains.
- Use the chisel to slightly chip away the wood (only a little).
- Use saw to remove the part of the Block of wood.
- Use the chisel to remove the extra layering of wood around the boundary of the Tenon and also to soften it.
- Remove the remaining part with the help of the saw. With that, the Tenon is now completely ready.
Creating the Mortise
- Using the same reference on the dual marking gauge with which we have drawn lines on the Block of wood for the Tenon, draw lines on this Block of Wood (The one for creating mortise) in between lines whose distance between them represents the total width of a block of wood of the Tenon.
- Now with the help of the prepared Tenon, mark the cross-sectional lines on to the Block of wood with the help of the pencil and scale as shown below. The rectangular section marked with wavy figure needs to be taken out so that the Tenon can enter it.
- Secure the Block of wood (of the mortise) on a vice with the help of a clamp.
- Hammer the chisel into the cross-sectional rectangular area so as to create an empty slot there.
After creating a slot of the desired Tenon depth, the Block of wood should appear like this.
The mortise is created successfully.
Putting together the final product: Align the Tenon into the mortise and hammer it into the empty slot. Done.
Though the making of Tenon and mortise joint started a couple of centuries ago, they are still in demand due to ease in making them and the advantages that they provide. There do some more variations of The Tenon and Mortise joint. However, all them follows almost the same procedure as discussed above.

Fallen A2P Protocol Free Download for PC Full Version
Fallen: A2P Protocol is an Indie, Strategy role-playing game.
A post-apocalyptic turn based tactical combat and strategy game where you lead your caravan in a quest for personal revenge.
In a World saved and destroyed by a new energy source; A quest for personal revenge will unveil the most deepest secrets; on how it all began to falling apart.
From the captivating design of the maps, to every small detail, Fallen: A2P Protocol has the looks of an amazing game.
Following a story mode, it's up to the player to choose the right moves, as well as the right weapon for the job, which can be a katana, a stop sign, an SMG, or even a sniper rifle.
The game also allows the player to choose which mission should be next, using a map and a vehicle, a caravan, to be more accurate. Since resourcers are scarce, driving around indefinitely is not an option, as there's a sort of fuel resource limit. It's also on the caravan that the player gets to use the hard earned experience to improve the unit's skills, and even to gear them up, among other options.
If you're looking for a good turn-based game, with an apocalyptic setting to it, and a bright future ahead of it, look no further.
Considering it's an Early Access (EA) game, I've decided to add a "Neutral" category, for details I consider important, but not gamebreakers, and could easily improve the gameplay if attended.
i. Needs more content;
ii. Story could use some polishing;
iii. Some achievements aren't working properly;
iv. Could use some hints, or abilities, to find objectives during missions, as you might end up just v. looking around for enemies to kill;
vi. The UI is a bit odd to get used to.
The game is rather enjoyable, especially considering its recent release date, so there's no much to point out "Cons" wise.
Key Features
1. Deep turn based tactical combat
2. Limited bullets and resources
3. Destroyable environment
4. Rich story and dialogues
5. RPG Character progression and skills
6. Adapt to changing events and weather conditions
7. Great graphics
8. Fantastic environment, incredibly well designed, givin a post-apocalyptic feeling to the game
9. The AI is really solid
10. Sound effects are well suited to the genre
11. Nice variety of weapons
12. Diversified maps

Thanks to the wonderful Danimezza, I'm now part of an Australian plus size blogging community, and we have started doing a challenge together each week. This week is boots, and as I only have one pair, this was easy! Apologies for the photo quality- in my backyard there was the option of full sun where you couldn't see me, or shade, which is what I went with.
I have wanted boots for a long time, but only found my pair last year at Autograph. They were a new venture for them, having not sold footwear before. They sold out quickly, and I was overjoyed to find a pair of boots to fit my problematic legs. My calves are very wide (50 cm), I can't stand heels (I have very flat feet) and my feet are size 11. So shoe shopping is usually problematic and annoying for me. I had given up on boots until I came across these, and they ticked all the boxes.
I paired them with my jersey dress from Asos Curve, which is comfy and bright. It picks up lint from my jackets badly and has funny seams over my boobs, but I forgive all because bright colours. I'm wearing a new belt from Asos Curve. I like belts, but you see my problem with them in the photos, it just can't stay around my natural waist. It likes to ride up. Yes on my blog, I tell you about the annoying things my clothes do.
I hope you enjoyed my first Aussie Curves post, and that you check out some of the other ladies' awesome efforts. Autograph boots are currently half price so I recommend you check them out online and in-store.
Outfit Details
Dress: Asos Curve
Belt: Asos Curve
Necklace: Olive Tree Markets
Boots: Autograph
Star Print Tights (under dress): Autograph

STORY: He May Be Her Only Hope. She May Be His Last Chance
Miranda Wentworth never imagined becoming a mail-order bride. Now marriage to a stranger is her only hope of finding a home where she and her two younger brothers can escape the brutality of the Chicago orphanage where they live. With any luck, she can even start a family of her own, once the three of them are settled at Jacob Creed's Texas ranch. But Miranda has one gigantic concern: Her husband-to-be knows nothing about the brothers she's bringing along. What if he calls off the deal when he discovers the trick she's played on him?
Jake Creed is hanging on to his Texas ranch by his fingernails. His nemesis, Alexander Blackthorne, is determined to ruin him. Jake will never give up, but he's in desperate trouble. His wife died six months ago in childbirth, along with their stillborn son, and his two-year-old daughter needs a mother. The advertisement Jake wrote never mentioned his daughter—or the fact that he has no intention of consummating his marriage. He's determined never to subject another wife to the burden of pregnancy. But Jake doesn't count on finding his bride so desirable. He doesn't count on aching with need when she joins him in bed. And he never suspected his bride would have plans of her own to seduce him.
REVIEW: WARNING! Gushing ahead!!!
Without a doubt, this is a character-driven story which, combined with fast pace and more than one couple to root for, will take you on a journey of self discovery for all characters. Ms. Johnston made sure that her writing was so good that as a reader, I just 'wanted'! This multidimensional story left me laughing, crying, and definitely wanting more.
I wanted to know about all the kids that were left behind, and I wanted to know what happened to Jake's father. I adored this book so much that as soon as I was done with it, I wanted to know more about Jake's mother and her second husband. I NEEDED to know more, so off I went and bought all of the books connected to this dynamic and dynastic family.
I am all in knots waiting for WYOMING BRIDE (Hannah's story), MONTANA BRIDE (Hetty's story) and BLACKTHORNE'S BRIDE (Josie's story). I am not a patient person, so I'm reading all her books while waiting for these to hit the shelves or my Kindle.

I'm pretty sure Jetstar is out to hurt us.
First they lure us in with cheap return flights to New Zealand. In all the excitement, I don't fully, fully pay attention to the flight times other than they get us in Friday morning into Wellington and Monday morning back in Melbourne.
Until it's a week or two away from the actual trip and I realise we're on an overnight flight to Wellington that gives you about 3-4 hours for sleeping before you land at 6am in the morning, and on the trip back you have to get to the airport by around 4:45am to catch you 6:45 flight back to Melbourne since it is technically an international flight.
Cue Brad and I turning in to total zombies.
And the sale was for July when it's freezing in Melbourne, and therefore even more freezing in Wellington.
But really, for around $220 return, it's absolutely worth the pain and the extra days off work to enjoy a long weekend in the most adorable of New Zealand cities. So how to spend it? Here's our itinerary for 3 nights over a couple of posts…
Day 1
Our bus from the airport in to town (only around $9!) gets us in as the sun is slowly creaking out of bed; the best place to watch it rise? Right out at the water, where we pass by people doing group exercises at an ungodly hour, get the first whiff of how crazy Wellington's winds are and in our travel giddiness don't quite realise how tired we are just yet.
I love how walkable Wellington is, and as the chill of the wind starts hitting home, we stroll through the city to find some sustenance. I love some of the older buildings, and the clash of old and new.
We end up in Loretta on Cuba Street which smells a dream, as the open kitchen bustles away. The space evokes warehouse, but is made rustic and a little more homely with light woods and a whole table of sweets and pastries when you walk in. Almost the worst thing to sit across from when you've had no sleep and are craving sugar like a mono.
Whilst Brad gets stuck into coffee (as we realise how tired we are once we sit down), I begin my love affair with the fact that absolutely everywhere in Wellington serves up hot lemon, honey and ginger drinks. Everywhere. Best thing when it was this cold, and you were a little under the weather.
Brad's actually not very much of an earlier morning breakfast person, so opted for the granola with goji berries, blueberries, cranberries, almonds, coconut and puffed grains. Although if we went out for brunch in Melbourne Brad would never usually order something like this, this was totally up my alley with crunchy almonds, earthy puffy rice grains and a touch of sweetness. Light and delightful.
I on the other hand, order a dish that Brad would probably usually order if we were brunching at our usual hour - but I'm glad he didn't, because I loved it and was quite reluctant to share. Loretta's 'Warm Rice' with broken chicken sausage and thyme was sheer perfection when you're a zombie, it's cold out and you're feeling a teensy, teensy bit under the weather. Oh my lordy.
It was a bit like a soupier risotto, so aromatic with all thyme, slightly rich and fatty from the sausage and just everything I needed.
We passed by Loretta during the evening on a number of nights to see it totally pumping, would have loved to pop in again to try their pizzas…but there are only so many meals one can squeeze!
Once we managed to peel our almost comatose bodies off the banquette seating at Loretta, we made our way to our AirBnb, where we were so fortunate our host Kate managed to organise an early arrival for us so at 9:30am we could crawl into our gorgeous apartment and snooze until lunch time.
Kate's apartment made for a perfect base in Wellington, only about a 10 minute walk from the heart of town, with an amazing cafe/restaurant/bar Bresolin across the road and awesome brewery Garage Project 5 minutes down the road as well. The apartment was spacious, modern, and even had a cute little courtyard - would absolutely stay here again (provided she ever has a free date again!)
Refreshed from a snooze, it was time to refuel…again!
This time we wandered down to Sweet Mother's Kitchen, which feels a little bit like a dive bar, and something out of New Orleans (not that I've been there, but it made me think of it) with kitschy lamp fittings and lights and an eclectic collection of currency pegged above the counter. And Obama bobbleheads of course.
All the southern comforts can be found here, from burgers to hush puppies to jerk chicken - it's hard not to order everything!
Brad got the Po Boy with Creole spiced, cornmeal coated prawns, sandwiched in between crusty baguettes and crunchy crisp lettuce. Crunchy, crunchy batter, sweet and juicy prawns and so well seasoned.
I opted for the seafood chowder with scallops, mussels, shrimp and fish in a smooth creamy soup - although not quite the white creamy chowder I remember from San Francisco, this was warming and full of flavour.
Chuckles Curly Fries - SMK's famous curly fries with Creole mayo are also so much fun, and also so delicious - love the lightly crusty batter and seasoning on the outside. Easy to overdose on these!
As the weather had held out, with sun still peeking out from behind clouds, Brad and I made the walk up to Mount Victoria…which is a much more arduous walk than I anticipated! You could absolutely take a bus up, but since we just ate our weight in potatoes (or at least that's how I felt after all them curly fries), the walk was welcome. It's quite steep, and as you get closer to the peak, it becomes more of a hiking trail than a paved path to get up (or at least the shortest route is anyway). So wear comfortable shoes, and perhaps don a backpack, rather than carrying your handbag like I. I'm bright obviously.
It's well worth the walk up though, with the most stunning view, especially on a good day, of Wellington. We got up there late in the afternoon, and although I loved the view, I'm sure it'd be also quite amazing at sunset. Do rug up though, the winds were blistering up here!
By the time we descended down the hill, it was almost, but not quite dinner time, so we swung by Six Barrel Soda So. - easily spotted by a kaleidoscope of zany and bright colours on the corner of Eva Street.
Six Barrel Soda Co. was founded in Wellington in 2012, and make natural and specialty sodas, and their cosy little shop in Wellington serves a wide selection of their sodas, coffees, milkshakes and fries - really the perfect spot for a little break but not a whole meal.
I got the hibiscus soda, one of their signature flavours, which was exactly as described, plummy and floral - it reminded me of plum wine - minus the alcohol. But even with the rich plummy flavours, it was so refreshing and although I don't do soft drinks, or mainstream sodas ever, I could see myself enjoying more of Six Barrel Soda Co.'s range as they're not so sweet.
Brad got a flat white, that came paired with a ginger soda that had plenty of kick! I didn't drink his coffee, so I can't comment on the pairing, but Brad quite enjoyed it.
We continued down Eva Street, which is home to a variety of independent little bars, and hospitality ventures, including the Wellington Chocolate Factory, which smells like a dream when you walk in - as they make the chocolate onsite.
Despite dinner looming on the horizon, you've got to squeak in a rich hot chocolate and earl grey chocolate. Of course.
By now, the sun has set and the city is starting to buzz as Friday night kicks in.
Obviously time for some alcohol.
We pop into Matterhorn, which is on Cuba Street, but a little hidden, as it's tucked down the back of a long hallway. With the wind battering about outside, slipping into the warm and cosy space of the Matterhorn is such a delight. Dark woods, dim lights, kind of feels like you're in a sexy Swiss chalet (and funnily enough the place used to be a Swiss coffee house back in 1963).
You can come in for dinner, or like us, slip into the bar area, perch on some bar stools and watch the space get busier and busier as the night carries on.
Beer for Brad, and a warmed Winter Pimms for me with Pimms #1, Pedro Ximenez sherry, apple juice, cloves, cinnamon and figs. Oh my lord. It was like a mulled cider, but even better.
Just off Cuba Street, on Friday and Saturday nights, the Wellington Night Markets kick into gear, where a whole array of food stalls pop up to enjoy. Although as we wandered through, we didn't really find anything we felt like eating - but I did love the Pegasus Book Store. A haven for anyone who remotely loves books, I absolutely loved the ladders on the shelves - which made me think of that scene from Beauty and the Beast where Belle picks out her favourite book….you know the one right?
To cap a long first day, having eaten quite richly through the day, we finished up with a simple Japanese meal at Origami. Nothing particularly exciting, but affordable and perfectly nice - sometimes that's all you need right? Do remember it had been a pretty darned long day!
Keep an eye out for my next Wellington post (promise I'll try not to take too long on it) where we meet the cutest little critters at the zoo, eat a lot (again) and drink awesome beer. Coming soon!

Belles Fall to Brits in Season Finale
ALBION, Mich. - The Saint Mary's basketball team ended their season with a 77-65 loss at Albion on Saturday afternoon.
The teams played a tightly-contested opening 10 minutes. Albion took a 10-5 lead through the first four minutes of play only to see the Belles match the Brits shot for shot over the following five minutes. A good jump shot by Shanlynn Bias followed by a pair of free throws by Bias made it a 12-9 contest with 14:07 on the clock. On the Belles' next possession, Ariana Paul drained a jump shot in the paint to make it a 14-11 affair.
Saint Mary's cut the deficit to one point at 14-13 on a second-chance jump shot by Shanlynn Bias with 12:56 left. A minute and 40 seconds later, the Belles edged within a point again (16-15) on a senior to senior combination as Katherine Wabler got on the scoreboard with a layup on a pass from Bias.
Albion followed a three-pointer up with a layup to pull ahead 20-15 with under ten minutes remaining in the opening half. Another Bias jump shot made it a 20-17, but the Brits responded with a 10-2 run to take an 11-point lead at 30-19.
Ariana Paul gave the Belles back-to-back baskets to shave four points off the deficit at 30-23, but Albion, riding high off their Senior Day emotions, came back with nine points in-a-row to extend their lead to 39-23 with 2:08 left in the first period.
Both teams put four more points each on the scoreboard over the final two minutes as Albion held the 43-29 lead at the break.
Saint Mary's made it a 12-point game at 43-31 and 47-35 to open the second half. The Brits went on a 9-0 run over the next 3:40 to push their advantage to 56-35 with 14 minutes even on the clock.
Albion maintained at least a 19-point lead over the next twelve-and-a-half minutes of play. The Belles made one last run at the Brits with an 11-0 run in a span of just 1:19. Maddie Kohler, Ariana Paul, Katherine Wabler, and Shanlynn Bias all scored for Saint Mary's in the final two minutes of play to make it a 75-65 game with 31 seconds left. Albion closed out the 77-65 decision with a pair of free throws as the Belles' comeback ran out of time.
Saint Mary's held an 18-13 advantage on the offensive glass and outscored Albion 32-22 in the paint.
Shanlynn Bias closed out her career with 19 points to lead the Belles and five assists. Ariana Paul had her third consecutive double-double with 18 points and 14 rebounds to go along with four steals. Katherine Wabler added eight points in the final game of her collegiate career.
The Belles end their season with a 7-18 overall record and a 5-11 mark in MIAA play.

|In the Matter of
The Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") deems it appropriate that a public cease-and-desist proceeding be and hereby is instituted pursuant to Section 21C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") against Respondent Bonnie K. Metz ("Metz").
In anticipation of the institution of this proceeding, Metz has submitted an Offer of Settlement ("Offer"), which the Commission has determined to accept. Solely for the purpose of this proceeding and any other proceedings brought by or on behalf of the Commission or to which the Commission is a party, and without admitting or denying the findings contained herein, except that Metz admits the jurisdiction of the Commission over her and over the subject matter of this proceeding, Metz consents to the entry of this Order Instituting a Public Cease-and-Desist Proceeding Pursuant to Section 21C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Making Findings, and Imposing a Cease-and-Desist Order ("Order") as set forth below.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that a proceeding pursuant to Section 21C of the Exchange Act be, and hereby is, instituted.
On the basis of this Order and the Offer of Settlement submitted by Metz, the Commission finds that:1
Bonnie K. Metz ("Metz"), age 50, a resident of Balboa, California, was the Vice-President-Managing Director of the Hong Kong office of Craig Consumer Electronics, Inc. ("Craig") from 1995 to September of 1997, Craig's director of international trade from 1994 to 1995, and its operations director from 1989 to 1993.
Craig Consumer Electronics, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware in 1989. Its principal place of business before it ceased operations was in Cerritos, California. Craig's common stock is registered with the Commission pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and during the relevant time period was traded on Nasdaq. On August 1, 1997, Craig filed a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.
Craig marketed consumer electronic products under its trademark, "Craig." Its business was highly seasonal with a majority of its sales occurring in the third and fourth quarters.2 As such, it required substantial working capital to acquire inventory in advance of its sales. To meet its cash requirements, Craig relied principally on a line of credit from a bank; the line of credit was secured by accounts receivable and inventory.
The credit agreement contained limitations on the credit that would be provided and secured by inventory. For example, the credit agreement permitted Craig to borrow against only a percentage of its new goods, a lesser percentage against its refurbished goods, and not at all against its defective goods.
By at least shortly before Craig's initial public offering in May 1996, the company realized that it could not obtain sufficient credit to maintain its business if it accurately reported certain sales and inventory levels to its bank. In part, the items falsely reported to the bank were also falsely recorded in Craig's books and records.
1. Inventory Transfers and the South American Sale
Under Craig's credit agreement with its bank, it could not borrow against accounts receivable resulting from foreign sales. Moreover, Craig's internal accounting system would not permit a customer to be invoiced for sales of defective product. Craig circumvented both limitations in a sale of nearly $1.03 million worth of defective product to a customer in South America. First, Craig billed the shipment to an entity in Brooklyn, New York. Then Craig, with Metz's knowledge, improperly transferred the known defective inventory within its accounting system to a "new" inventory category. Metz, knowing that the product was defective and that Craig's accounting system could not bill for sales of defective goods, then created schedules that showed the inventory being moved from a defective to a "new" category. To these schedules, Metz attached copies of invoices showing that the inventory was billed. She also authorized the return of the defective goods to the United States.
"Goods on the water" is inventory purchased by Craig that is in transit from Craig's vendors in Asia. Craig, with Metz's knowledge, reported goods on the water as collateral to its bank that either did not exist or to which it did not have legal title. Metz directed a Craig employee to inflate the goods on the water inventory reported to the bank by adding non-existent shipments. In addition, Metz created false bills of lading to support further overstatements of inventory reported to the bank. Metz scanned a bill of lading form into her computer and then changed the consignee on the fabricated bill of lading from Craig's supplier to Craig. By changing the consignee to Craig, Metz made it appear that Craig owned the goods, when actually the supplier owned the goods. As Metz created the false bills of lading, she removed the originals from the files, hid them, and replaced them with the ones she had fabricated. Metz replaced the original bills of lading with the fabricated ones so that Craig would have supporting documentation to provide to its bank if questioned.
1. Record-Keeping Provisions: Section 13(b)(2)(A) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13b2-1 Thereunder
Section 13(b)(2)(A) of the Exchange Act requires every issuer that has securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, such as Craig, to "make and keep books, records, and accounts, which in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions . . . of the issuer." No showing of scienter is required. SEC v. World Wide Coin Inv. Ltd., 567 F. Supp. 724, 749, 751 (N.D. Ga. 1983). Rule 13b2-1 under Section 13(b)(2)(A) of the Exchange Act provides that "no person shall, directly or indirectly, falsify or cause to be falsified, any book, record or account subject to Section 13(b)(2)(A)." Craig violated Section 13(b)(2)(A) of the Exchange Act by maintaining books and records containing false accounting entries and documents.
Metz violated Rule 13b2-1 and caused Craig's violations of Section 13(b)(2)(A) by falsifying or causing others to falsify Craig's corporate documents and/or accounting entries. Metz created schedules of transfers of known defective inventory to new inventory. These schedules supported the nearly $1.03 million fraudulent sales transaction, and did not accurately and fairly reflect the physical inventory of Craig. Such inventory transfers were made within Craig's accounting system. Further, Metz directed a Craig employee to include in Craig's reports to its bank inventory that did not exist. Moreover, Metz created false bills of lading to create the illusion that Craig held title to goods on the water that were actually owned by Craig's suppliers. Metz falsified and caused others to falsify Craig's books and records and caused the company's books and records to be inaccurate and to not fairly reflect Craig's transactions.
2. Record-Keeping and Internal Control Provisions: Section 13(b)(5) of the Exchange Act
Section 13(b)(5) of the Exchange Act provides, among other things, that no person shall knowingly circumvent a system of internal accounting controls maintained by a reporting issuer, or knowingly falsify any book, record or account maintained by such an issuer. A
corporate officer can violate Section 13(b)(5) by directing a subordinate to record false or improper entries on the corporation's books in circumvention of its system of internal controls. See In the Matter of Westwood One, Inc., William J. Battison and Gary J. Yusko, Exch. Act Rel. No. 34-33489 (Jan. 19, 1994).
Metz violated Section 13(b)(5) of the Exchange Act by knowingly circumventing Craig's internal accounting controls and knowingly falsifying the company's books and records as described above.
Accordingly, based on the foregoing, the Commission finds that Metz violated Section 13(b)(5) and caused violations of Section 13(b)(2)(A) of the Exchange Act and violated Rule 13b2-1 thereunder.
In view of the foregoing, the Commission deems it appropriate to accept the Offer of Settlement submitted by Metz.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, pursuant to SectionĀ21C of the Exchange Act, Metz shall, effective immediately, cease and desist from committing or causing any violation and any future violation of Section 13(b)(5) of the Exchange Act and Rule
13b2-1 thereunder, and causing any violation and any future violation of Section 13(b)(2)(A) of the Exchange Act.
By the Commission.
Jonathan G. Katz
1 The findings herein are made pursuant to the Offer of Settlement of Bonnie K. Metz and are not binding on any other person or entity in this or any other proceeding.
2 Craig maintained a December 31 fiscal year.

By: Virginia Iversen, M.Ed
As we all move through our lives, many of us will experience the pain of heartbreak, especially in the realm of romantic love. At times, we may feel that we are walking on cloud 9 when all is well with our chosen paramour. However, when the relationship ends, many of us tend to sink into depression and despondency, as the reality of the ending of a cherished relationship begins to sink in.
When heartbreak becomes solidified and deeply lodged into body, the heart and throat chakras often become closed down. This physical armoring is an attempt to nullify the pain and protect us from any more heartbreak. Unfortunately, the physical contraction of the heart area can lead to a diminished immune system, cardiac problems and depression. A contracted throat chakra can undermine the healthy functioning of the thyroid and the parathyroid glands, which can predispose you to endocrine problems.
By teaching a well-rounded comprehensive Yoga class to your students, you will help them to release physical tension, which will support them in releasing painful emotions and memories. One of the very first steps to teaching your students to consciously integrate painful relationship experiences into the broader context of their lives is to encourage them to accept the reality of what a particular relationship actually was to them and to the other person. A very gentle way to encourage your students to "accept what is," is to have them slow down enough to become truly present as they practice Yoga with you.
For instance, if you allow your students a few minutes at the beginning of a Yoga class to either sit in a comfortable seated position or stand in Mountain Pose, while they take a few deep breaths and clarify their intention for their practice, they will quickly become present and aware of their own state of being. This may include feelings of grief, disappointment or betrayal, if they are contending with the ending of a cherished relationship. By simply creating a set time and space for your students to slow down enough to get into touch with their own hearts, you will help them to experience clearly how they feel.
Accepting the reality of the ending of a relationship is one of the very first steps to moving through loss and disappointment. As their Yoga teacher, when you encourage your students to accept their feelings and physical state of being without judgment, they will be more able to begin the process of healing from heartbreak. In terms of the physical practice of the asanas, when your students begin to accept their own unique physical needs, strengths and weaknesses without judgment, they will also begin to accept the reality of their emotional lives with less judgment and more openness.
Of course, as a professional Yoga teacher, you have many different ways of helping your students to increase their physical health and cultivate a peaceful and positive mind, but your are not a therapist! At times, it may be important to gently and privately encourage a student, who is deeply struggling with the end of a relationship or marriage, to seek professional guidance and support. However, do not underestimate the power of a comprehensive practice of Yoga postures, breathing exercises and relaxation techniques to release sadness and grief, as the mind is calmed and the heart is uplifted.
Teaching these ancient practices to your students with competency and loving kindness will support your students in many areas of their lives, including healing from heartbreak. You may also want to creatively sequence some of your Yoga classes to underscore back bending postures and stress-relieving pranayama exercises. If you have the time, you may also want to include complementary, heart-opening Yoga practices into your classes, such as chanting sacred mantras. Chanting sacred mantras is a form of vibrational energy healing, which has the power to remove grief from the heart, uplift the spirit and cleanse the mind.

Title: Ignite Me
Author: Tahereh Mafi
Publication: February 4, 2014
Series: Shatter Me #3
Format: Hardcover
My Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥
The heart-stopping conclusion to the New York Times bestselling Shatter Me series, which Ransom Riggs, bestselling author of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, called "a thrilling, high-stakes saga of self-discovery and forbidden love."
With Omega Point destroyed, Juliette doesn't know if the rebels, her friends, or even Adam are alive. But that won't keep her from trying to take down The Reestablishment once and for all. Now she must rely on Warner, the handsome commander of Sector 45. The one person she never thought she could trust. The same person who saved her life. He promises to help Juliette master her powers and save their dying world . . . but that's not all he wants with her.
The Shatter Me series is perfect for fans who crave action-packed young adult novels with tantalizing romance like Divergent by Veronica Roth, The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, and Legend by Marie Lu. Tahereh Mafi has created a captivating and original story that combines the best of dystopian and paranormal, and was praised by Publishers Weekly as "a gripping read from an author who's not afraid to take risks." Now this final book brings the series to a shocking and satisfying end.
My Review:
** spoiler alert ** Wow. This book was perfection. I have no idea why so many people did not like this book, I thought it was fantastic! I could not put it down. I did not see this coming from the book. There was amazing romance, action, fighting and just amazing.
- Juliette
Juliette was so much better in this book. She wasn't a baby like in the other books, even though I still loved them. She is more strong (physically as well) and I am so happy how it ended up for her. She was more confident and was simply amazing in battle. She knows how to take charge and is great main character.
- Warner
I fell in love with Warner through this book. You see so much good in him and you realize why he made all the choices he made. I cried for him a few times, he is so sweet and nothing like the man I read in Shatter Me or Unravel Me. I loved this Warner *Aaron* so much more.
- Adam
What do I say? He broke my heart. This entire time in Shatter Me and Unravel Me I could never see Juliette with Warner and thought Adam was amazing for her but he was horrible in this book. He made me cry and was such a jerk. I dropped my book once on one of his outbursts, I was in complete shock. I could not believe it was the same Adam from book one and book two. I did not want to believe how he was turning, I just couldn't fit my head around it.
- James
I love James so much. I wish he were my little brother instead, he is just so adorable. I absolutely love this little boy. He was so cute whenever he talked to Warner, it was just cute.
- Kenji
Kenji, hilarious as always. He made me burst into laughter with the "Bruce Lee" line. He is an awesome best friend to Juliette and did I mention hilarious? His power is so cool, to turn invisible and others? I wish I had that one.
Overall, I absolutely loved this book. I think I would have loved it more if Adam weren't such a jerk. I still can't believe how he acted. I am so happy for Warner and Juliette and I will definitely be reading the sequels to this series. I am so happy I read this book and was stunned, I honestly had no idea I was going to love this book so much. I thought it was pure perfection and thought the scenes rolled out really nicely. This was an excellent ending to the trilogy of Shatter Me.

PIGSKIN PREVIEW: Plymouth ready to play
In three days, the Friday night lights will be flipped on, all across Indiana when a new high school football season kicks off.
In three days, the Friday night lights will be flipped on, all across Indiana when a new high school football season kicks off.
In Plymouth, there's more than a new pressbox on display at the Rock Pile.
There's a new quarterback too.
Jack Barron is gone after three years under center, which included leading the Rockies to the sectional crown last year.
Plymouth will open at home against rival Bremen on Friday, and despite losing some key pieces they feel they have a lot back too.
"You know we lost Jack Baron who was all state, Cam Eveland all State. But you know what we have a lot of guys coming back. We have middle linebacker Caleb Clause who had the leading tackles last year and Colten Schuler who I believe was rd in tackles. We're just ready to prove ourselves. Prove our class can do it too," said Plymouth senior Nick Nixon.
"It was the best of times and worst of times for Plymouth Football last year and I know these guys want to carry on some of those traditions where winning is important and it always has been. We just want to put a good product on the field. Last year was exciting and I think the boys definitely feel some of that, but its time to move on," said Plymouth Head Coach John Barron.

I was looking for a cheaper dupe to Fresh's lip balm in Rose (which is too pricey at $22), and this is sort of close. At $7, it's a little pricey for a drugstore balm and comes in a weird cardboard packaging that makes it look twice as big as it is,. The actual balm tube inside is the same size and style as any other chapstick.
The color is a very sheer pink, which is great for me because I have naturally pigmented lips and anything darker would turn red or fuschia. It did give me exactly what I was looking for, which is an even, glossy, my-lips-but-better lip color. It WON'T give anything more than that, so if you're looking for reddish lips, I'd get one of the deeper colors. The moisturizing abilities is average for a balm, nothing amazing but not too shabby, either.
I am taking off a lippie because the smell is TERRIBLE. I'm not sensitive to fragrances but this just smells really strongly of plastic. I don't have any qualms with putting it on my lips but if you're sensitive to scents, I'd stay away.
EDIT: Taking off another lippie because this gets all over the place if you're drinking or eating. Strange, the Fresh balm is a slightly deeper color and doesn't do this. Not a fan, won't repurchase.

An absolute HG for me. I wear minimal makeup and love anything that enhances my natural features, which this does beautifully. The color is absolutely perfect on my pale (slightly yellow under-toned) skin. It's my lips but better. It has great pigmentation and a smooth creamy texture that feels lovely on the lips. I wear this everyday and have at least 3 tubes scattered between my car, purse, and home. I HATE lipstick, like actually hate it. It is beautiful on others but I just don't feel I can pull it off, especially since I'm always snacking on something. It always smears all over my teeth/face and I end up looking like the joker - not cute. I never have this problem with the Burt's Bees tinted lip balm. The smell and taste is a little funny but nothing I can't live with.
-beautiful color
-smooth texture
-keeps lips smooth and soft
-natural ingredients
-a little pricey for balm, but not for lipstick I guess
-smell/taste isn't the best
Not only is this stuff still my favorite HG lip color/balm, it is now my HG cream blush as well. With a clean ring finger, I dab some onto my cheeks and it is just as beautiful as on my lips. It really pulls your whole look together to have the same color on your lips and cheeks. It is perfect for my everyday "no makeup" look. Super natural, fresh, and dewy looking. I also don't have to worry about how it will effect my skin because it has gentle natural ingredients. I will never be without this little multi-purpose gem. LOVE LOVE LOVE <3

Wow, this really exceeded my expectations. I always stayed away from these tinted balms based on my experience with the shimmer sticks Burt's Bees had - they weren't very moisturizing and made my lips peel.
The colour is AMAZING for fair-medium skin tones. I highly recommend it if you don't like lipstick but still want a nice "je ne sais quoi" tint on your lips. It really is that "my lips but better" kind of shade. From the cap it looks like it would be a barbie pink, but it really isn't. The only thing they should change is the SCENT - it's kinda gross. A nice rose scent would have been nice. Overall, highly recommend this one!
