Despite a battling spirited display Clitheroe came away from Curzon Ashton pointless falling to a solitary goal in the last minute of normal time. Curzon Ashton shaded the first half putting the better passing moves together but either missed the target or found Richie Mottram in good form. At the other end Mark Threlfall struggled to get in the game so 0-0 at half time.
Second half Mark Threlfall withdrawn and the lively Danny Smith forced off with injury replaced by Mason Ryan and the returning Danny Bell who lifted the side with pacy runs down the right flank and put some dangerous crosses in.
Just when a point looked in the bag a weak defensive header, under pressure, sat up invitingly on the edge of the box and the onrushing CA player Jordan Wrights mashed it low to the bottom right corner giving Richie Mottram no chance in the very last minute.
In the fourth minute of injury time Danny Bell pumped a teasing cross into the box which Simon Nangle missed by inches with a diving header, seconds later Rob Bodie of all people was upended in the Curzon Ashton box, Nangle fired the spot kick low and hard to the bottom left corner but ex Clitheroe keeper, Hakan Burton, managed to save the penalty and seal the win.
Man of the Match, Will James, with a defensive master class way beyond his years. In truth Clitheroe did not create enough in the final third to deserve a share of the spoils.

A model's photo shoot for a high-class car company has been used to make her look like a low-class escort, court papers charge.
In papers filed in Manhattan Supreme Court, Carolyn Giles, 29, says an innocuous photo that was taken of her for an ad for the Volvo S40 five years ago is being used around the world today — including in an ad for a Volvo-sponsored dating event encouraging customers to "rev up your love life."
"Most offensive is that plantiff's image has been used to make it appear she may be an escort, with extreme and sexual and inappropriate connotations and innuendos such as 'spend a night with a Swedish model of your choice' next to plaintiff's picture," the $23 million suit says.
"It's like an old ad in the yellow pages for an escort service," fumed her lawyer, David Jaroslawicz. "It doesn't leave a lot to the imagination."
That's not what the leggy brunette signed up for when she working with Ford Models in 2007, and struck an $800 deal for a picture of her to be used in a single ad for the Volvo S40. The portrait shows her smiling behind the wheel of the car.
The brainy beauty – who's graced the cover of the international version of Seventeen Magazine – saved up her cash from modeling and enrolled in Columbia, where she's studying psychology.
This past winter, she discovered she was still being used to advertise a car for Volvo, but it was the V50, which she'd never signed a deal for, the suit said. The pic was used in ads in "Istandbul, Thailand, Macedonia, Serbia. Finland, France, Belgium, Sweden, the Netherlands, Latin America and other areas," the suit says.
It's also popped up in Hertz ads – and even its 2011 annual report filed with the SEC.
The suit says Giles turned to Ford for help getting the image pulled and payment for its use, but "to date, Ford has done absolutely nothing."
The suit says the racy ads have caused Giles "emotional distress," and she deserves big bucks from Ford, Volvo and Hertz for having used her image without her okay and painting her "in a false light."
"She's a little upset," Jaroslawicz quipped.
On her LinkedIn page, Giles says she loved being a model because she was able to "fulfill my lifelong dream of traveling around the world."
Reps for Volvo, Hertz and Ford had no immediate comment.

So.... has anyone got cold feet and come through the other side and have a successful relationship at the end?
Me and my OH (other half) (other half) (currently ex OH) broke up. Prior to this we had a fairy tale relationship, we'd been together 3years when I'd unexpectedly fell pregnant (pills suck!) He told me he was scared but we'd absolutely smash it and be happy as we did with everything else. We never argued or had any issues.
He was in the army and had been serving in Cyprus from 8months, he came home every month and we spoke all day everyday and had a hour long phone call at the end of every evening.
When he got back he did the most sweetest proposal ever and put so much effort into it. His time in Cyprus was a holiday, he had absolutely no stress and then came home to a pregnant Mrs, a wedding, a house move which we didn't know where we'd be and the financial burden of all this about to come..... within 4months.
He went to Cyprus again for his last 2 week stint, whilst there we had a conversation about us all mpving out there and packong everything up etc.... we then had a arguement. 3 days later i had a call from him and he broke up with me, said he didn't want it anymore and didn't think he ever loved me.....
He was out with all the lads getting pissed up when this happened and it's all he's done since..... it's came as a MASSIVE shock to literally everyone including his family and very best friend, no one can get their head around it.
I keep getting told it's cold feet, he's scared and ran off (because you have somewhere to run to when in the army) and he'll come around in time....... He's never ever hurt, upset or done anything before for me to believe this is real and I can't get my head around it, all that is coming out of his mouth doesn't sound like him and I believe it to all be bollocks.
Does this sound familiar to anyone and anyone have any advice? For a very confused 5month pregnant woman

The question is silly yes, but it could help determine if your facility is spending too many man hours on an asset that doesn't need to be attended to as often as it could be in turn saving your facility on labor costs year over year.
Lighting plays a crucial rule in any organization, in fact, lighting can consume 38 percent of a building's total electricity draw — approximately the same as space heating, cooling, ventilation, office equipment, and computers combined.

I wanted to share our latest home improvement project. We've lived in our house for four years, and I've wanted a spice rack for, oh, four years. We went through configuration after configuration, but nothing worked with the way our kitchen is laid out. And then we had an epiphany. Our design is so ridiculously simple, I don't know why it took us four years to come up with it. We're not quite pros at this woodworking thing, you see. It's just a 1x2xsomthing piece of the cheapest wood with moulding attached to the front and sides and then spray painted a high gloss white. Easy. Peasy. Love it!

The first step to an organized kitchen is to formulate a plan and assemble the proper items. One of the most challenging aspects of kitchen efficiency is organizing spices. Many recipes require an assortment of spices. Good thing the Spice rack is invented.

This week our product focus looks at the two heavyweights of the display freezer marketplace – the Capital Products Pegasus 2 Door and the Framec Expo 1100NV.
Here at Capital Cooling we are stockists of a variety of different freezers, both for commercial and domestic properties. One of our most popular sellers has to be the chest freezer, an incredibly useful appliance that can allow you to store a large amount of food with ease.
The entire Capital Cooling team are proud to have worked in partnership with Oaka on this project, supplying both the chilled and frozen displays.
From convenience stores to supermarkets and butchers to bakers it is amazing how many retail outlets rely on refrigeration. It is only when you stop and really think about it that you realise almost every store on the high street will have at least one chiller or freezer.
Chest freezers are great for both domestic and commercial properties. They allow you plenty of space to store a variety of frozen foods, and can cut down on problems such as food waste.
Over the festive period our National Service Centre can be contacted 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by calling 01506 859000.
Our National Sales Office shall be closed from the 23rd of December to the 4th of January. If you have an urgent enquiry during this time please email sales@capital cooling.com and a member of our team will respond in due course.
Buying a bottle cooler for your house or business can be a confusing affair. There are lots of different options out there as glass door fridges are used to display the drinks at cafes, pubs or restaurants.
For the past 20 years Capital Cooling has been at the forefront of the commercial refrigeration industry. Growing swiftly from a local refrigeration business in Edinburgh to a national provider of high quality service, maintenance and equipment the rise of Capital Cooling has been a real success story.
Nowadays a freezer is pretty much an essential piece of kit for any home or food business. Lots of standard fridges come with a built in freezer; however there are many advantages to buying a standalone item such as a chest freezer.
Food-to-go is continuing to be a growth market in the convenience industry and people are always running around in circles in their hectic lifestyles which propel them to consume the ready-to-eat foods. Generally, ready-to-eat food items require cold storage and a display chiller that increases impulse purchases is the perfect solution.
A remote multideck utilises an external refrigeration unit, commonly located out the back of your store. That unit is connected to the display chiller via pipework and is a great option for retailers that require a large amount of chilled display in their store.
An integral multideck display chiller is an open front chiller with the refrigeration system built in, so there is no need to have an external condensing unit situations outside your store. This makes installation really simple as it is literally "plug and play" – simply connect the unit to the power (many operate with just a normal 13A plug but always check first as some need 16A) and it will be good to use right away.
If you are thinking about buying an ice cream scooping freezer the first thing to do is to decide whether you require a professional or a promotional display freezer.
We are proud to announce that Matthew Hearne has won the ACR News Customer Service Award.

An arrangement of the Basque Local Anthem for Brass Quintet & optional Percussion.
The anthem lyrics were written by Sabino de Arana y Goiri while he was in prison (May-November 1902). The text was created to be sung with the music of the old dance ezpata-dantza (dance of spades). A few years later, the Basque musician Cleto Zabala arranged the music. In 1905 the Basque National Party declared the anthem as the Basque National Anthem. The first Basque Government created during the Spanish war (1936-1939) approved it officialy as Anthem (music and lyrics).
After 1939 with the fascist dictatorship in Spain the anthem was forbidden. In 1983, several years after the end of dictatorship and when the Basque Autonomy was re-established, the Basque Parliament approved the anthem, but only the music without the lyrics so the anthem would not be seen as tied to one particular political party or overly religious in nature.
Need an anthem fast? They are ALL in my store! All my anthem arrangements are also available for Orchestra, Recorders, Saxophones, Wind, Brass and Flexible band. If you need an anthem urgently for an instrumentation not in my store, let me know via e-mail, and I will arrange it for you FOC if possible! firstname.lastname@example.com If you perform this arrangement in public, make a recording or broadcast it through any media, please notify the PRS (UK), or ASCAP (USA), or SOCAN (Canada), or APRA (Australia) or KODA (Denmark) or the equivalent organisation in your own country, giving the name of the arranger as Keith Terrett.
For anything not permitted by the above licence then you should contact the publisher first to obtain permission.

It's a new day in education and one where asking the question, "Are you an Apple or a Kodak?" is almost beyond relevant. Why? Two reasons:
1) It's late in the game. Educational leaders with already proven results in increased employee engagement, parent satisfaction, and student achievement were presenting and discussing this question a year ago; check out the audio clip below:
2) It's the wrong question. We should not be asking educational leaders whether they are "either/or," instead we should ask, "If you're not Apple, then why?" The difference in questions is grounded in the title of a recent article in Fortune, "Apple ad shows why Kodak never had a chance" (Parker, 2013). Check out the ad below:
The author of the article referenced above calls the ad's message "simple, tight, concise" (here). The ad's message is simple in its delivery, however, the ad's content message delivers a brutal reality check to anyone not embracing change – including change in education, "Every day more photos are taken with the iPhone than any other camera."
Parker, Andrew. (May 3, 2013). Apple ad shows why Kodak never had a chance, Fortune. Accessed online at: http://finance.fortune.cnn.com/2013/05/03/apple-kodak/.

Double suicide underscores Greece's deepening health crisis
By Robert Stevens
29 May 2012
The appalling suicide of a mother and son in Athens again underscores the social nightmare being visited on Greece by the troika—the European Union (EU), the European Central Bank (ECB) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
The tragedy occurred May 24. The mother, aged 90, and her son, aged 60, leapt hand in hand from the roof of their apartment building in the capital shortly after 8 a.m.
Green Veneer WWF Helps Industry More than Environment
By Jens Glüsing and Nils Klawitter
The WWF is the most powerful environmental organization in the world and campaigns internationally on issues such as saving tigers and rain forests. But a closer look at its work leads to a sobering conclusion: Many of its activities benefit industry more than the environment or endangered species.
Chasing the Sun German and Chinese Solar Firms Battle for Survival
By Wiebke Hollersen
Germany was proud of its supposedly future-proof solar industry and subsidized it to the hilt. But then the Chinese got in on the act and started making much cheaper solar cells. Now, following a glut in production, companies in both countries are fighting for survival.
Michael Zhu gazes at the watch he's placed in front of him on the glass table in his office. He'll have to get a move on. He has to walk over to the factory and continue to work on forcing the Germans out of the very market they've created.
Zhu is the vice president of Suntech Power, which has an annual output of 10 million solar panels. No company in the world makes more than his, and no country in the world buys more than Germany.
Energy key topic during Putin's visit to China
By Zhou Wa (China Daily)
08:11, May 30, 2012
In the spirit of China and Russia taking risks and profits together, China maintains a positive attitude toward natural gas negotiations between the two countries, the Chinese Deputy Foreign Minister Cheng Guoping said on Tuesday.
Energy cooperation will be a key topic for Russian president Vladimir Putin during his visit to China from June 5 to 7, the minister said.
Why is Washington so scared of Confucius?
(Global Times)
08:29, May 25, 2012
According to a new US State Department directive last week, Confucius Institutes in the US must obtain American accreditation. The directive also says that some academics at these institutes who are holding J-1 visas will not get their visas extended, which means they will have to leave the US. If the directive comes into force, Confucius Institutes and Schools in the US will face a lot of trouble. The US obviously wants this.
Confucius Institutes have expanded their global presence in recent years. There are now 691 Confucius Institutes and Schools, 69 of which are in the US. Their rapid development can be partly attributed to China's active promotion, but the decisive factor is the great demand for learning Chinese.
As Washington struggles, US downgrade is likely
10:56, July 27, 2011
Could the US lose its top credit rating even if a deal is reached to raise the debt limit?
Market analysts and investors increasingly say yes. The outcome won't be quite as scary as a default, but financial markets would still take a blow. Mortgage rates could rise. States and cities, already strapped, could find it more difficult to borrow. Stocks could lose their gains for the year.
"At this point, we're more concerned about the risk of a downgrade than a default," said Terry Belton, global head of fixed income strategy at JPMorgan Chase. In a conference call with reporters Tuesday, Belton said the loss of the country's AAA rating may rattle markets, but it's "better than missing an interest payment."
La restauración del antiguo régimen que parecía inevitable hasta hace unos días requería mantener la complicidad entre imperios mediáticos, dueños del dinero y sus empleados políticos. Sostenerse como encomenderos de la conciencia pública y permitirse inclusive humillar a los partidos por la imposición de candidatos impresentables que compran curules como títulos de nobleza.
Ocurrió lo inesperado, apareció en escena un actor que no estaba invitado: la protesta juvenil, cuya importancia potencial era evidente pero ignorada. Los estudiantes interrogaban en las universidades: ¿cuál es nuestro papel en la elección? ¿Catorce millones de jóvenes podemos cambiar el país el 1 de julio? Nunca tuvimos respuesta suficiente. Imposible aconsejarles incorporación a los partidos políticos: sólo quedaba explicar las opciones históricas que están en juego y llamar a la movilización de las conciencias.
Solía decirse: precipitemos como en 1988 la ruptura social. Las plazas, las calles y ahora las redes sociales son los verdaderos escenarios de la transición política. Los procesos electorales sólo las culminan y frecuentemente las traicionan. Todo cambio histórico se resume en la inclusión de los excluidos, pero adquiere un sentido de reinvención cuando el salto es generacional.
Obama Oversees "Kill List" of Targets in Secret Drone War
The New York Times is reporting President Obama personally oversees a "kill list" containing the names and photos of individuals targeted for assassination in the secret U.S. drone war. According to the Times, Obama signs off on every targeted killing in Yemen and Somalia and the more complex or risky strikes in Pakistan. National Security Adviser Thomas Donilon said, "He is determined that he will make these decisions about how far and wide these operations will go." Obama is also said to personally approve every addition to the expanding "kill list." Individuals on the list include U.S. citizens, as well teenage girls as young as 17 years old. The Times quotes former White House Chief of Staff William Daley about Obama's decision to assassinate Anwar al-Awlaki, a U.S. citizen, in Yemen. According to Daley, Obama called the decision to strike the U.S.-born cleric "an easy one." Since April, the United States has carried out at least 14 drone strikes in Yemen and six in Pakistan. Over the weekend, a U.S. drone strike in Yemen killed at least five people.
U.S. Plan to Arm Italy's Drone Fleet Faces Criticism
The Wall Street Journal reports the Obama administration plans to arm Italy's fleet of Reaper drone aircraft, a move that could open the door for sales of advanced hunter-killer drone technology to other allies. The sale will make Italy the first foreign country besides Britain to fly U.S. drones armed with missiles and laser-guided bombs. Critics of the proposed sale include the head of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Dianne Feinstein, a California Democrat, who said, "I am concerned by the proliferation of these weapons systems and don't think we should be selling them."
Pressure Mounting on Syria After 108 Killed in Houla Massacre
International pressure is mounting on the Syrian government following a massacre in the town of Houla that killed at least 108 people, almost half of them children. U.N. observers attributed the massacre at least partly to the Syrian army and pro-government militias, but the Syrian government blamed Islamist militants. Earlier today, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad met U.N. envoy Kofi Annan. On Monday, Annan said Syria must take bold steps to implement the U.N. peace plan.
Kofi Annan: "I urge the government to take bold steps to signal that it is serious in its intention to resolve this crisis peacefully and for everyone involved to help create the right context for a credible political process. And this message of peace is not only for the government, but for everyone, every individual with a gun. The six-point plan must be implemented comprehensively, and this is not happening to date."
On Sunday, the U.N. Security Council condemned the use of artillery and tanks in the Houla killings, but U.N. observers are now saying most of the dead were executed at close range. Meanwhile, U.S. General Martin Dempsey, the chair of the joint chiefs of staff, threatened military intervention in Syria during an interview on Fox.
Martin Dempsey: "There is always a military option, but that military option should always be wielded carefully, because, one thing we've learned about war, I have learned personally about war, is that it has a dynamic all its own, it takes on a life all its own. And so, you'll always find military leaders to be somewhat cautious about the use of force, because we're never entirely sure what comes out on the other side. But that said, it may come to a point with Syria because of the atrocities."
Syrian Filmmaker Who Appeared on Democracy Now! Killed in Homs
In news from Syria, reports have emerged that the young Syrian filmmaker Bassel Shahade was killed on Monday in the city of Homs. Bassel appeared on Democracy Now! in December. At the time, he asked to only be identified by his first name for security reasons. He described the fighting in Homs.
Bassel Shahade: "The violence in the city of Homs is like — what I saw the last week I was there ... like, it's threatening to turn into like almost a civil war. A heavy crackdown on the city, punishing the rising area and killing the civilians, is forcing the locals to form like an armed resistance to the regime's forces. And they are supported by army deserters. So the fight is between the locals and the security forces and the supporters of the regime. The rising areas are besieged by the regime forces."
Democracy Now! staff first met Bassel Shahade at Syracuse University. He was a Fulbright scholar there studying filmmaking. Again, Bassel Shahade, the young Syrian filmmaker, went back to Syria, was killed in Homs.
Air Strikes Kill 8 Family Members, Alleged Al-Qaeda Leader in Afghanistan
In news from Afghanistan, NATO officials say a coalition air strike has killed a Saudi man who is being described as al-Qaeda's second in command in Afghanistan. Sakhr al-Taifi reportedly oversaw the transport of militants into Afghanistan. Meanwhile, Afghan authorities say at least eight family members, including six children, have been killed in a NATO air strike in the eastern province of Paktia. In other news from Afghanistan, 160 girls have been hospitalized after they were poisoned in their classrooms. A similar attack last week sent 120 girls and three teachers to a hospital. Afghan officials blamed the attacks on radicals opposed to the education of women and girls.
Bahraini Activist Alkhawaja Ends Hunger Strike; 2nd Activist Released
Imprisoned Bahraini human rights activist Abdulhadi Alkhawaja ended his hunger strike Monday after not eating for 110 days. His lawyer said the hunger strike successfully helped shed light on the plight of political prisoners in Bahrain. While Alkhawaja remains locked up, his colleague Nabeel Rajab was released on bail after being held for nearly a month. Rajab, the president of the Bahrain Center for Human Rights, still faces a travel ban and criminal charges for allegedly "inciting" protests and "defaming" security forces. Rajab vowed to keep fighting for democracy in Bahrain.
Nabeel Rajab: "I'm going to continue my struggle no matter how much they're going to cost me, no matter how many days they're going to put me or how many months or how many years. I believe that's the cost of the struggle, that's the cost of the freedom that we are fighting for, and I'm willing to pay that cost."
Turkish Court Indicts Israeli Military Leaders for Gaza Aid Flotilla Killings
A Turkish court has approved an indictment seeking multiple life sentences for four former Israeli military commanders over their alleged involvement in the 2010 killing of nine Turks on the Gaza-bound aid ship, the Mavi Marmara. The indictments name Israel's former military chief, Lt. Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi, as well as the former heads of Israel's navy, air force intelligence and military intelligence. Wednesday marks the second anniversary of the deadly Israeli raid.
Obama Administration Asks Judge to Undo Order Against NDAA Indefinite Detention
The Obama administration has asked a federal judge to reverse her order barring enforcement of part of the National Defense Authorization Act that permits indefinite military detention. Earlier this month, Judge Katherine Forrest struck down part of the NDAA that allows the government to indefinitely detain anyone it considers a terrorism suspect anywhere in the world without charge or trial, including U.S. citizens. The judge's ruling came in a lawsuit filed by a group of journalists, scholars and political activists including Chris Hedges and Noam Chomsky.
Romney Expected to Clinch GOP Nomination with Texas Win; Obama Campaign Slams Romney's Bain Record
In campaign news, Mitt Romney is expected to unofficially clinch the Republican presidential nomination today with a win in the Republican primary in Texas. Meanwhile, the Obama campaign continues to criticize Romney over his record at the private equity firm Bain Capital. Obama's senior campaign adviser Robert Gibbs appeared on Face the Nation Sunday.
Robert Gibbs: "What Bain Capital never did was focus on job creation. That's not what Bain Capital does. It loads up companies with debt. It takes money out of those companies and pays those investors. It's not about job creation. And that's what Mitt Romney is running on."
Radiation from Japan's Fukushima Disaster Found in California Tuna
Researchers have found radioactive bluefin tuna off the coast of California that were contaminated by last year's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant disaster in Japan. The discovery marks the first time radiation from the disaster has been found in fish that migrated into California waters. Researchers say the levels of radioactive cesium in the tuna are 10 times higher than normal, but they said the amounts are still below levels considered unsafe for humans. The ocean off Japan was contaminated last year after thousands of tons of seawater were used to cool reactors in an attempt to prevent a total nuclear meltdown following an earthquake and tsunami.
New Orleans Women's Activist Group Hit by Apparent Arson Attack
The headquarters of a New Orleans group that advocates for poor women of color and transgender people has been heavily damaged in an apparent arson attack. The group, Women With a Vision, provides advocacy, health education and support to marginalized women. A room containing materials used for sexual health education was targeted in the attack, according to one report. The group's executive director, Deon Haywood, said she believes the attack was intentional, but that it would not stop them from helping those without a voice.
Minnesota Church Known for Support of Social Justice Destroyed by Fire
A church in Minneapolis known for supporting LGBT rights and other social justice issues has burned to the ground. The century-old Walker Community United Methodist Church was home to progressive groups including Communities United Against Police Brutality, Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee and the Welfare Rights Committee. The church welcomed LGBT people and approved a statement last year embracing same-sex marriage. The cause of the fire remains unknown, but one official said it may have been sparked by lightning. The church building was also the birthplace of KFAI Community Radio and the station's first home.
DOJ Probes Reports of Rampant Sexual Abuse by Guards at Alabama Women's Prison
The U.S. Justice Department is investigating allegations of widespread sexual abuse by male guards at a women's prison in Alabama. The probe comes after the legal aid group Equal Justice Initiative filed a complaint based on interviews with more than 50 women. The group found sexual assault and harassment had become a way of life for women prisoners who were routinely punished and often placed in segregation if they reported the abuse. One former inmate said male guards had unrestricted access to showers and would follow women to the bathroom in the middle of the night.
Peru Gov't Declares State of Emergency over Anti-Mining Protests
In Peru, the government has declared a "state of emergency" in the highland province of Espinar, saying two people were killed and dozens of police officers injured in anti-mining protests. Protesters have halted production at a copper mine owned by a Swiss-based company, Xstrata plc, saying the mine is contaminating local water supplies. The 30-day "state of emergency" places the military in charge and allows for the suspension of civil liberties.
Protester Interrupts Murdoch Hearing, Calls Tony Blair a "War Criminal"
In news from Britain, an antiwar activist disrupted former prime minister Tony Blair's testimony Monday before the judicial inquiry investigating the Rupert Murdoch spying scandal. The activist, David Lawley Wakelin, was removed from the proceedings after he called Blair a war criminal.
David Lawley Wakelin: "This man should be arrested for war crimes. JPMorgan paid him off for the Iraq war three months after he invaded Iraq. He held up the Iraq Bank for 20 billion. He was then paid $6 million every year, and still is, from JPMorgan, six months after he left office. The man is a war criminal."
In Far Northwest, a New Border Focus on Latinos
By WILLIAM YARDLEY
FORKS, Wash. — The Olympic Peninsula has always felt more like the edge of the world than a mere national boundary.
Its ocean shoreline, the northwesternmost coast of the contiguous United States, is accessible by a single road, Highway 101, and it has long been traveled by a distinctive fleet: loud logging trucks rumbling out of the dark and wet woods, rusty pickups with windows pronouncing "Native Pride," stray Subarus hauling surfboards and kayaks to the cold Pacific.
Then the United States Border Patrol vehicles started showing up.
Sometimes they respond unexpectedly to assist with mundane traffic stops conducted by the local police. Sometimes they hover outside the warehouse where Mexican immigrants sell the salal they pick in the temperate rain forest. Sometimes they confront people whose primary offense, many argue, is skin tone.
Leading article: Egypt's elections leave its divisions unresolved
The results of the first round of Egypt's presidential election are at once hugely positive, and hugely negative.
They are hugely positive because they show that by far the biggest of the Arab Spring countries has more or less successfully embraced the democratic process. Some 16 months after the overthrow of Hosni Mubarak, Egypt has elected a lower house of parliament and looks set to elect a President.
Tensa a España el rescate de Bankia; cayó 2.17% la bolsa
Afp, Dpa y Reuters
Periódico La Jornada
Martes 29 de mayo de 2012, p. 30
Madrid, 28 de mayo. El pedido de rescate de Bankia colocó a España en momentos de extrema tensión este lunes en los mercados, cuando la prima de riesgo cerró por encima de los 500 puntos –hecho que ocurre en el país por primera vez desde la creación del euro–, nivel considerado crítico y que aviva el temor de un rescate de la cuarta economía europea.
El interés que paga ahora el bono español a diez años frente al alemán cerró en 6.47 por ciento, acercándose a los niveles que pagaban Grecia, Irlanda y Portugal cuando fueron recatados.
¿La realidad es la encuesta?
Javier Flores
"La realidad no es la realidad, la realidad es la encuesta." Parece un juego de palabras, pero esa es la lógica a la que responden algunas de las personas que analizan el actual proceso electoral en nuestro país. Con valiosas excepciones, comunicadores e intelectuales ocultan trabajosamente lo que ya es inocultable, niegan lo que es innegable. Para ellos, los movimientos sociales para ellos no importan –lo que resulta particularmente grave en el caso de las ciencias sociales–; lo único importante son las cifras que arrojan los sondeos que realizan las casas encuestadoras. Éstas son imperturbables. No importan los errores de un candidato que a cada paso exhibe sus limitaciones. Tampoco el surgimiento de un movimiento de jóvenes que lo repudia. Ni las constantes casos de corrupción en los que están involucrados sus correligionarios. Las encuestas no se mueven. Son como las tripas del animal destazado que permiten afirmar a nuestros modernos Arúspices: "El candidato que encabeza los sondeos será el próximo presidente de México".
A última hora
Pedro Miguel
De último minuto, entre las cajas de cartón y los rollos de cinta canela de la mudanza próxima, el régimen de Felipe Calderón casi reprocha al país que no se fije en él, así sea para hacerle una manifestación de protesta, y lanza una cacería de gente importante. Un general divisionario y un ex gobernador priísta son las piezas más prominentes de esta cacería de última hora, una cosecha de sospechosos que buscaría coronar la siembra de balas, cadáveres y combates por medio territorio nacional. Se trata de un "ahora sí" casi póstumo después de un sexenio de exterminio de peces muy menores y de una procuración facciosa para sacar fotos de peces medianos tras unas rejas endebles y sumamente provisionales, es decir, escenográficas. Y no se trata únicamente del infame michoacanazo ni de la faramalla contra Hank Rhon, sino de decenas de miles de "presentados" –la mayoría– que ni siquiera tuvieron que esperar una sentencia absolutoria.

Schutte, N. S., Malouff, J. M., Post-Gorden, J. C., & Rodasta, A. L. (1988). Effects of playing videogames on children's aggressive and other behaviors. Journal of Applied Social Psychology, 18 (5), 454-460.
Abstract: 31 children (aged 5-7 yrs) were matched on sex, randomly assigned to play either a violent (karate) videogame or a nonviolent (jungle vine swinging) videogame, and then observed during free play. The main results were that Ss who had played the jungle swing videogame later played more with a jungle swing toy and that Ss who played the violent videogame later showed more aggression. Findings are interpreted as an indication that young children who play videogames later tend to act similarly to how their videogame character acted.

1. We're terrified of Costco and Walmart.
The average American household makes 1.6 trips a week to the grocery store, and spends an average of $102.90 per week, according to the Food Marketing Institute, a food-retail industry group. With numbers like these, you'd expect that grocery stores would do booming business, especially as the economy continues its upswing. But that's not the case.
Instead, industry revenue is slowing: While it increased at an average annual rate of 1.5% for the five years through 2014, growth is expected to be just 0.9% in 2014 and it will grow at an even slower average annual rate of 0.7% to 2019, according to research firm IBISWorld.
This slowed growth is thanks, in part, to competition from low-priced retailers and warehouse clubs, such as Costco COST, +1.01% and Walmart WMT, +1.02% , IBISWorld says. This competition means that "industry operators have been forced to lower prices and offer promotions to compete … dampening profit margins." IBISWorld analyst Andy Brennan notes that this trend will likely continue.
Grocery stores are fighting back. Some chains have merged so they can better compete; these include Kroger KR, +1.73% and Harris Teeter, which completed a merger this year, as well as Safeway US:SWY and Albertsons, which announced a merger this year that's expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2014. "Such consolidation allows retailers to lower per-unit costs through economies of scale and maintain profitability," IBISWorld reports. Grocers have also implemented cost-cutting measures like replacing employees with self-checkout aisles.
A spokeswoman for the Food Marketing Institute, an advocacy group for the food retail industry, points out that, according to an FMI survey from this year, supermarkets are still the primary store for food shopping for 54% of grocery shoppers.

Again with blades
I seem to be repeating myself a lot, today. Some days ago, I mentioned that blades seem to have a weird "feeling", a balance that pushes you towards certain fluidity. In that trip with friends this last weekend I bought several knives. A chef's knife, a MCusta folding knife, a Martiini one, and two fixed Spanish blades: a Muela inspired on Argentinian blades and a Nieto skinner. I've ranted on some ideas on Spanish knives ust today, so I'll save you the bad points on that. Also, I'd have preferred the MCusta to be one with a thumb hole, unlayered, instead of a thumb stud, layered steel one. Functional preference[*]. But. Those blades have their own preferences of movement. The long Argentinian blade, a 6 2/3 inch blade, reaches out, changes your feel, makes you, perhaps, a tad more daring, asks for a guard. The skinner wants to be kept close to the body. With the very same movements. The folding ones are similar to the skinner, but faster, more inclined to "nick" instead of cut; maybe more puncturing, too. Now, most of my short blade instruction is a weird mix of Kali, Silat... My Japanese learning is scarce on short blades and... well, a tanto is a rather long short blade. So maybe my ideas are restricted. But... I had similar feelings with that talwar I mentioned in my earlier post, and I'm told they were legit. Hm... More feeling, less technique? Where have I heard that before...? Take care. [*] Layered steel, today, is not any more functional (and, sometimes, even less) than good factory steel. And I think thumb holes work better under stress.

Another Premier league weekend is behind us and, as always, there are plenty of talking points and incidents to look back on.
There was a surprise result at Anfield as Paul Clement recorded his first victory as Swansea manager with a 3-2 win over Liverpool. Fernando Llorente scored twice to give Swansea a 2-0 lead before a brace from Roberto Firminho brought the reds level. The momentum seemed to be with Liverpool but Gylfi Sigurdsson scored with fifteen minutes remaining to give Swansea a huge win which took them out of the relegation places and left Jurgen Klopp bemoaning his side's defensive frailties.
Chelsea continued their title pursuit with a relatively comfortable 2-0 win over Hull city at Stamford Bridge. Diego Costa opened the scoring, having been recalled following reports of him being unsettled by an approach from a Chinese Super League club. Hull gave a good account of themselves but failed to genuinely threaten the Chelsea goal and the game was settled when Gary Cahill grabbed a second for the blues. There were particularly worrying scenes for Hull after Ryan Mason picked up a serious injury in a clash of heads with Gary Cahill which stopped the game for around ten minutes. Mason was later found to have fractured his skull and required an operation. News that he was talking and taking visitors in hospital following the operation will have come as a huge relief to all concerned.
Arsenal moved up to second in the table with a controversial 2-1 win over Burnley at the Emirates. The gunners led through an unlikely source as Shkodran Mustafi's header put them in front. The task was made more difficult for Arsenal when Granit Xhaka was sent off for the second time this season following a rash two-footed lunge on Steven Defour. Burnley looked to have grabbed a late point when Andre Gray converted a penalty in the ninety third minute but Arsenal had the last say as Ben Mee was penalised for a high foot on Laurent Koscielny and Alexis sanchez coolly chipped in the penalty to seal a vital three points. Burnley manager Sean Dyche was left fuming as Koscielny appeared to be in an offside position for the incident that led to Arsenal's penalty but his protests went unheeded.
It was another frustrating weekend for Pep Guardiola as his Manchester City side let a two goal lead slip as they were held to a 2-2 draw with Tottenham. City started strongly but had to wait until early in the second half as the usually reliable Hugo Lloris made two uncharacteristic errors. Firstly heading the ball straight at Leroy Sane who couldn't believe his luck before slotting home. Lloris then dropped an easy catch directly at the feet of Kevin De Bruyne who tapped in for 2-0. Dele Alli headed in to reduce the deficit and then came the moment which so incensed Guardiola. Raheem Sterling went through on goal and appeared to be pushed by Kyle walker in the penalty area just as he was about to shoot at goal but neither the referee nor his assistants spotted an infringement. Guardiola's misery was complete when, shortly after, Son Heung-Min equalised for Spurs meaning City have just one win in their last four league games.
Crystal Palace slipped into the relegation zone following a 1-0 defeat at home to Everton, a result which leaves Sam Allardyce without a win so far as Palace manager. Seamus Coleman scored with just three minutes remaining to seal a fourth win in five for Ronald Koeman's resurgent side and condemn Palace to a fourth straight league defeat.

Summertime in Miami is synonymous with cutoffs and sleeveless tops. For this look, I decided to take the trend a step further and pair a Free People bodysuit with cutoff overalls. Overalls are one of my favorite trends this season – they bring back a childhood nostalgia that I love.
I completed the look with a pair of Adidas Stan Smith Sneakers with a green detail (to match the bodysuit), and a Kate Spade backpack purse. This was my first time giving the backpack purse trend a go and it was a total game-changer. I pretty much bring a purse wherever I go, so having both of my hands free is totally foreign for me… I really enjoyed the improved mobility. Overall, this look is perfect for when you've got places to go and people to see and don't need any uncomfortable accessories holding you back.
Bodysuit: Free People $30
Overalls: Union Bay (Similar $60)
Sneakers: Adidas Stan Smith $60
Backpack Purse: Kate Spade $280

Srinagar: National Conference workers Wednesday organised a protest rally against Congress leader and Minister of state for Technical Education and Power Viqar Rasool for using invectives against NC party leaders.
On Wednesday, Kashmir Reader carried a story 'Cong minister abuses NC leaders in leaked phone talk'. In the leaked phone conversation the Congress leader was heard using choicest abuses against NC leaders and particularly Akbar Lone for trying to sabotage the move in cabinet meeting of giving sub-district status to some areas in Jammu province.
NC's nominated candidate for the coming Assembly elections in Banihal, Sajad Shaheen told Kashmir Reader that they organised a protest rally at Toursit Hostel against Viqar for using abusive language against them. "We burnt the effigy of Viqar Rasool as he has not only abused NC leaders but people of Banihal as well. People took to streets and marched through Banihal town to register their protest against his derogatory language," Sajad said.

Well, I finally did it. I finished putting together the nursery for my Little Bear. I feel a little bit badly about not having it done prior to his entrance into this world; but if he hadn't decided to come a month early I definitely would have (or at least probably would have) had it done and ready for him.
Since we haven't ever found out the gender of our babies before their debut their nurseries had to be gender neutral. So each baby had a gender neutral color and a gender neutral theme. Our Little Monster's color was green with a zoo themed room, our Cuddle Bug's color was yellow with a stars and the moon theme, and our Little Bear's color is orange (more specifically a burnt orange) with a woodland theme. Of course if he is to be our Little Bear he would need a "wooded" hideaway to escape to for sleep and play.
Here's a look into Little Bear's den…
I enjoy being crafty and I enjoy making things myself, so a lot of what is in this nursery is made by me. I pull inspiration from other blogs and sometimes shops on Etsy and sometimes I just come up with things in my own head.
I think my favorite piece in Little Bear's den is Figment. What or who is Figment you ask? Why the giant fox keeping watch over Little Bear's crib, of course. 🙂 This is not a project that I created; but instead, my amazingly talented mother did. I commissioned a giant woodland creature for above the crib and she delivered! We decided a fox because it's coloring went well with the burnt orange part of the neutral theme. I just love him! Not sure what I will do with a 4′ by 4′ fox when Little Bear gets an updated "big" bear den; but I am sure I will come up with somewhere to hang him.
Here's a closer look at Figment…
Isn't he great?! We joked that Figment's eye balls are as big as Little Bear's head (premie problems).
Another favorite piece of mine if the faux bear skin rug. I found a tutorial here and am pretty happy with how it turned out! He is very soft and my older kids think he is pretty hilarious to roll around on and cuddle with.
One of the more exciting projects was a completely new venture for me, one that required the purchase of a brand new, fun to use tool. Wood burning! It was a bit nerve wracking diving into this one. I really didn't want to mess it up. However, I went for it and came out the other side with two cute signs.
The first sign I was inspired by this blog over here. I changed the font up and tweaked the wording to my liking and then burnt it in. I also had some inspiration for the second sign found here. Again, I changed the font up, drew different antlers, and then burnt it in. I think for my first time ever using a wood burner they aren't too bad! Included here are the files of the two signs. Feel free to take them and create your own! { i-love-you-so-deerly & play-in-the-rain }
Here are a few close ups of some of the different projects in Little Bear's den:
All of these things were made by me. I cut some bear toys in half to make the bear coat rack. I painted the "don't wake the bear" sign during nap time one day. The faux bear head mount I folded up after purchasing the template on Etsy. And I stitched up some animal tracks to complete the woodland look.
Well, there you have it! Little Bear's little den is all done and ready to be slept in!
A mommy can dream right?

And some other friends from Cambodia or Laos named Outhavong. They came here to Texas, don't know if they were refugees though. Of course there was a need for people who spoke Vietnamese, where there really wasn't before the Vietnam War. So we could use some Albanian speakers now. Fortunately, Albanian is probably much easier to learn for an English speaker than Vietnamese (a lot fewer diacritics too!)

Traditional sports, aged a few centuries, do not live anymore in the urban region. This is due to the commercialisation of sports events and the ability to watch anything from anywhere. But still, there are a few ancient sports and games living through the efforts of rural champs. Rooster fight or cock fight is one such golden example. This sport has its roots in many countries across the world. But now, the scenario is different. There are regulations and controls which strictly put a check on those who conduct and play such games. Is the control on rooster fight really for the welfare of birds? Let's look further on the famous Seval sandai – Rooster fight in Tamil Nadu.
Seval sandai – Rooster fight in Tamil Nadu
Photo by Eric Kilby
The rooster fight or cockfighting, as commonly known, is banned or controlled in many parts of India. This is mainly because of the complaints stating that the birds are injured or killed as the result of this sport. Not always, but this game does involve risks of injuries and death of roosters.
There are variations in the game throughout several Indian states. In Tamil Nadu, the game is conducted in open fields, with a white line marking the boundary. Unlike other states, in Tamil Nadu, the birds are allowed to fight with bare nails. The nails are just sharpened, no sharp objects are attached. This lowers the risk of injury to the birds.
The game is conducted in several rounds with breaks in between. If the bird moves out of the boundary or falls on ground, it loses. The victorious bird is awarded several prizes. This game intends to grow a spirit and encourage poultry farmers. But with an introduction of gambling and gang wars surrounding the fight, there are bans and controls to monitor the events.
Broilers – the meat producers
With a change in lifestyle, there comes a change in food habits. Poultry farming has seen a tremendous growth these days with an increasing demand for meat. Due to this twist of choice, country chicken of native breed are reducing in number.
Broiler chicken farms are prescribed to grow chicken under strict rules. But there is no proper evaluation to check whether they do everything right. Hens are packed together within small area and they are not allowed to roam around freely. They are forcefully fed to increase meat weight and such hens mature well before their normal age. These chickens are mainly grown for meat and eggs, which are less nutritious than country chicken which are grown naturally.
As the corporate culture creeps into every household, such artificial foods enter the kitchen and fall into our plates, bringing several diseases. Broiler hens, which are bred without following proper guidelines, are held responsible for obesity, hormonal dysfunctions, early puberty, infertility etc.
The healthy country chicken
There are natural chicken breeds which are native to our country. When people lived in villages, cattle and fowl were members of the family. Native breeds of cows, goats and chicken thrived and lived healthy. As the population moved towards urban points, residential areas became tightly packed. They became totally unsuitable for vegetation and farming. As a result, hens were forced to breed inside cages! And cows were imported from abroad!
A natural breed of country chicken will take a longer time to mature and have less meat when compared to broiler chicken. This forced people to switch their choices. But still, a chicken that grows by nature will always be nutritious and cause no harm.
Ancient traditions were created with the welfare of humans in mind. Our ancestors lived close to nature. Cockfighting was meant to protect native breeds of cocks and hens. With proper regulatory guidelines, the sport can bring up healthy chicken breeds and encourage farmers towards natural poultry farming.

The roots of this sandwich go back to my childhood in Kentucky. My father would purchase raw hams from a local farmer and come back to my grandmother's where the curing process would begin in the smokehouse that stood between her house and her beautiful garden. These hams hung for at least a year but the prize hams hung at least 2 years. No fast cure here!
Anyway, the hams would eventually find their way into my mother's kitchen where she would get out the big electric roaster and boil them for hours before removing and topping with brown sugar, cornmeal, vinegar crust and baking in the oven to finish. Now these Baked Country Hams were special, very special ....oh, how I would love to have one of Daddy's hams right now....nothing like it. We ate it thinly sliced as a side or on sandwiches of rye bread with swiss cheese and Durkee's Famous Sauce.....which brings me to the reason for this post.
I still enjoy the old version but have tweeked it a bit. I now like to buy the mini rye bread squares and grill the sandwich. They freeze beautifully (even after grilling) and are perfect to have on hand. I use them with soups and salads all winter long....great quick lunch or dinner. But best of all, I like to cut them on the diagonal, nothing fancy here, and use them as an hors d'oeuvre for cocktail parties. Note that I now use Comté cheese (least expensive place to buy is Costco...actually same brand I buy in France) but you can substitute Swiss or Emmenthaler...just not as much flavor. However, there is no substitute for the Durkee's......it is just the best.....one jar will do 2 loaves of the mini rye...so you see we don't spread too much. And since we don't have my Daddy's ham, you can find an Edward's Petite Ham, fully cooked and boned, at Fresh Markets (they will slice) as well as online
If you have frozen your sandwiches, reheat until crispy again....I do that in my oven using convection but it also works on regular bake. I love popping a couple in my new Breville toaster oven ...love that oven....but that's another post.

I love stories about how people used to do things years ago food-wise. There is a certain satisfaction in home made that can never be achieved any other way.ReplyDelete

Turns out McCain, 24 months ago, was hanging around with a real honsest to God, American blood on his hands terrorist:
The courting of Libya | The Australian:
Indeed, while politicians and senior administration officials were expressing dismay early last week at the release of a convicted terrorist, a congressional delegation led by Senator John McCain, the former Republican presidential candidate, was in Libya.
McCain reported via Twitter that he had met Gaddafi, whom he described as "an interesting man". McCain was reported by the Libyan news agency to have praised Gaddafi's peace-making efforts in Africa and to have called for expanded US ties with Libya. Exxon and Chevron, the American oil giants, are among companies vying for new exploration contracts.
On Saturday, Robert Mueller, the head of the FBI, said Megrahi's release "rewards a terrorist". Nevertheless, diplomatic sources say Washington expects Gaddafi to pay his first visit to the US later this year for the next UN general assembly.
