How Most Australians Prefer Their Steak Cooked
Nothing sounds better than a sizzling steak on the grill, but nothing tastes better than a steak cooked just the way you like it. Research conducted by Brighter has revealed that the most popular steak in Australia is cooked medium.
According to the research, 22% of Aussies prefer a well-done steak, 33% prefer a medium-rare, 5% prefer a rare steak, and just 1% prefer blue. Almost 4 in 10 (38%) of Australians prefer a medium steak.
Celebrity chef Adrian Richardson of Brighter’s cooking series, The Chef’s Secret, suggests letting your steak rest at room temperature before cooking and turning the steak every minute over a medium to high heat on your gas cooktop or barbeque to keep it juicy.

San Marino: Staff Concluding Statement of the 2022 Article IV Mission
October 7, 2022
A Concluding Statement describes the preliminary findings of IMF staff at the end of an official staff visit (or ‘mission’), in most cases to a member country. Missions are undertaken as part of regular (usually annual) consultations under Article IV of the IMF’s Articles of Agreement, in the context of a request to use IMF resources (borrow from the IMF), as part of discussions of staff monitored programs, or as part of other staff monitoring of economic developments.
The authorities have consented to the publication of this statement. The views expressed in this statement are those of the IMF staff and do not necessarily represent the views of the IMF’s Executive Board. Based on the preliminary findings of this mission, staff will prepare a report that, subject to management approval, will be presented to the IMF Executive Board for discussion and decision.
San Marino’s economic performance has been remarkable over the last two
years. However, higher energy prices
—below neighboring countries—
weakening external demand and tighter international financial
conditions will affect growth going forward. This challenging context
combined with the rollover of the Eurobond, calls for further building
up of buffers. Preserving healthy levels of fiscal and financial sector
buffers is key to preserve stability and confidence in a euroized
economy like San Marino. In particular, an ambitious fiscal
consolidation, and further efforts to address high nonperforming loans
and improvements in banks’ capitalization should be approved and
implemented without delay.
The Sammarinese economy has experienced robust growth with a tight
labor market, increased confidence, and remarkable stability over the
last two years.
With growth projected at 8.3 percent for 2021, the strong momentum has been
kept so far this year resulting in a level of economic activity
significantly above pre-pandemic heights. Strong external demand boosted
manufacturing and a rebound in tourism led to strong economic activity that
combined with increased confidence, led to higher government and banking
sector deposits and international reserves. In this context, employment
reached the highest level in over a decade and the tight domestic labor
market led the authorities to liberalize cross-border employment. At the
same time, the banking sector experienced a continued deposit increase and
improved liquidity, profitability, and capitalization.
With higher energy prices, tightening financial conditions, and growing
global uncertainty, activity is expected to slow down.
The energy price increases are eroding households’ real income and firms’
profit margins. Combined with weakening external demand, these developments
are expected to contribute to a marked deceleration of economic activity
and deterioration of the current account surplus and international reserves
as the economy adjusts to the negative terms of trade shock. As activity
slows down, fiscal revenues will be impacted while inflation can increase
spending pressures adding to pre-existing fiscal challenges. Downside risks
related to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, particularly a further disruption
of energy supplies in Europe, continue to dominate the outlook although the
remarkable resilience of the economy in the last few years could provide
some upside risk. In this connection, the cautious wage increases agreed in
the recent collective bargaining agreement in the industrial sector will
help preserve employment as the economy weakens, providing welcome
flexibility to the labor market. The rollover of the Eurobond in early 2024
remains a risk.
The authorities’ response to high energy prices allows price signals to
operate, supports vulnerable groups and mitigates the macroeconomic
By a combination of a long-term gas contract signed last year and timely
electricity contracts, complemented with hedging operations just before
prices surged, San Marino was able to secure significantly lower gas and
electricity import price increases than those in Europe for this year and
next. This has allowed the authorities to adjust tariffs to cost recovery
levels but well below neighboring countries, at minimum fiscal costs,
avoiding the potentially disruptive macroeconomic impact associated with
unprecedentedly large tariff increases. The authorities’ plans to
pass-through import energy prices to consumers next year will continue to
avoid fiscal costs and preserve the financial soundness of the state-owned
utility company (AASS).
Increasing global interest rates, elevated public debt, and the
Eurobond rollover in 2024, call for an ambitious path for fiscal policy
notwithstanding weakening economic activity.
With increased global financial uncertainty, the authorities should be
ready to take advantage of favorable market conditions and rollover the
Eurobond whenever the opportunity arises starting early next year. Strong
economic activity so far this year has temporarily boosted revenues, while
the impact of the energy crisis on the budget has been limited. Given the
weakening outlook, the authorities should save revenue over-performance
this year to build up government deposits while resisting spending
pressures. Going forward, strengthening the fiscal position will require a
fiscal adjustment by the central government of 2 percent of GDP over the
next three years to reach a central government primary balance of 2.5
percent of GDP complemented by pension reform. In particular,
The proposed income tax law amendments should be promptly approved and
be more ambitious in simplifying the system and reducing exemptions and
loopholes. The delay in implementing it this year
could leave San Marino in a vulnerable fiscal position with a debt path
that is declining but not robust to most shocks. Furthermore,
introducing a Value Added Tax should also be considered particularly in
the context of closer EU integration. Finally, there is also room to
improve revenues by repealing discounts on petroleum products and
expanding the use of excise duties that would, at the same time, help
address environmental externalities.
Public sector wage and pension increase in line with recently agreed
private sector collective bargaining agreements could contain
expenditure permanently and support the needed fiscal consolidation in
the near term. More broadly, further improvement in spending efficiency
will be needed and spending review across all public sector units is
essential to contain government spending. Finalizing the Public
Financial Management reform will enhance control over public finances
through better accounting, reporting and transparency.
The pension reform under parliamentary discussion, stabilizes the
system’s deficit over the next decade but further recalibration of
pension spending will be needed to ensure long-term sustainability. The
approval of this reform, expected this year, is a key priority that
cannot be delayed given increasing deficits of the Social Security. By
increasing contribution rates, the reform reduces projected deficits
and stabilizes pension fund assets in the near-term. However, in the
absence of more ambitious measures to contain pension spending—linking
the retirement age to life expectancy, increasing penalties for early
retirement, and calculating benefits based on the entire
career—deficits will reemerge requiring a depletion of pension fund
assets. Finally, the current limit on government transfers to the
Social Security should be preserved.
There is a need to develop a comprehensive debt management strategy
that will support debt sustainability and help develop a domestic debt
market over the medium-term.
With limited fiscal space, San Marino needs a strong, medium-term debt
management framework to reduce rollover risk and financial cost, that
incorporates plans for international and domestic issuances, and increases
predictability. Publishing a medium-term debt strategy, an issuance
calendar and an annual public debt report will help in this regard. In this
context, the conversion of ex-BNS uninsured depositors’ bonds will help
develop the domestic debt market and reduce the burden on taxpayers.
Importantly, it will also smooth financing needs in a challenging period.
Banks’ profitability and capitalization have improved, but significant
In 2021, banks have achieved profitability for the first time since the
Global Financial Crisis and their capital base was strengthened. However,
with extraordinarily high nonperforming loans (NPLs) and the recent halt of
efficiency improvements, profitability remains limited and fragile. In the
context of falling bond valuations and weakening activity, new pressures on
the capital base have arisen. The Central Bank of San Marino (CBSM) allowed
banks to transfer assets from the trading to the investment portfolio that
is held until maturity. The plan to report these operations transparently
There has been a delay in the implementation of the strategy to reduce
NPLs tie up administrative resources and banks’ capital, limiting the
capacity of new lending to support economic activity. An asset management
company could create the economies of scale to address system wide NPLs
more efficiently, while providing fresh liquidity to banks and the
opportunity of having an external valuation of NPLs. However, the lack of
implementation more than two years after having been designed, has delayed
banks own NPL resolution. Progress has been made establishing the by-laws
for the servicer, the supervisory framework for the treatment of vehicle
assets received by banks, and pre-selecting reputable external arrangers,
with the final selection currently underway. If NPLs are found to have a
real economic value below the net book value, their transfer should
transparently result in a reduction of capital ratios. Any
undercapitalization that could arise should be promptly addressed with
credible capitalization plans. There should be a clear expectation and
incentive structure for most NPLs to be transferred. NPLs remaining in
banks’ book should be subject to progressive recognition of past losses
(calendar provisioning), following European standards.
In a euroized economy without independent monetary policy, preserving
healthy levels of financial sector liquid buffers is key to preserve
stability and confidence.
This is more so given the limited tools available to absorb shocks,
heightened international uncertainty and increased volatility in financial
markets. As expected, international reserves have fallen as banks deposits
at CBSM moved abroad to take advantage of higher rates, a trend that is
expected to continue in the near term..
San Marino should continue to make progress in strengthening
implementation of the AML/CFT framework
. The AML/CFT assessment report by MONEVYAL indicated satisfying levels of
effectiveness in many areas but highlighted some areas where further
efforts are needed including supervision, preventive measures (i.e.
customer due diligence), transparency of legal persons and legal
arrangements, money laundering investigations, and targeted financial
sanctions for terrorism and proliferation financing. Taking this into
account, the authorities are in the process of transposing the V AML
directive into the domestic legal framework.
Reforms that preserve and support macroeconomic stability should be
complemented with structural reforms needed to boost long-term growth.
Progress towards the EU association agreement and the labor market reform
are welcome but should be completed and implemented. In particular, labor
market reform should make permanent the recent liberalization of
cross-border workers and increase flexibility of temporary employment.
Plans to improve the business climate are critical and further efforts are
needed to improve an outdated insolvency framework.
The mission would like to thank the authorities and other counterparts
for their warm hospitality as well as open and productive discussions.

Each month, this column features selected short items about state health care policy digested from publications from around the country.
Improving Medicaid services for the disabled to be focus of HCFA technical advisory group
BETHESDA, MD—Fixing shortfalls in caring for the disabled under the Medicaid program is the focus of a two-year technical advisory group being organized by the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA).
"It’s not going to be an easy task, but it’s a task we need to be about," Sally K. Richardson, director of HCFA’s Center for Medicaid and State Operations, recently told Medicaid directors at an October meeting in Bethesda, MD.
Medicaid policy has not kept pace with the increasingly complicated technology of caring for the disabled, nor with the move of the disabled into the workplace, she says.
"As they move into employment, they endanger their eligibility," Ms. Richardson says.
The workgroup will be asked to address problems surrounding the Americans with Disabilities Act and other issues. Membership will include state and federal officials as well as advocates for the disabled, says Ann Wedgeworth, an assistant to Ms. Richardson.
Chicago files suit against gun industry, seeks millions from "public nuisance"
CHICAGO—Reasoning that the gun shops are like factories that pollute or bar owners who serve minors, city officials in mid-November filed suit to collect $433 million in damages from what Mayor Richard Daley called a "public nuisance."
The suit against gun shops, manufacturers and distributors is of dubious legal merit, says University of Chicago Law School fellow John Lott Jr. It could have the desired effect nevertheless, he says, because the gun industry may not have the resources to support a drawn-out legal defense.
Mr. Daley planned a trip to Washington, DC, after the announcement to continue his campaign against guns.
"If money is the only language they understand, then money is the language we will use to make them understand that they have no business in Chicago," Mr. Daley declared. "We’re going to hit them where it hurts — in their bank accounts — and we won’t stop hitting them until they stop flooding our streets with guns."
The suit was widely denounced by the those in the gun and recreational sports industries, but drew the support of University of Arkansas at Little Rock professor Andrew McClurg, who noted that taxpayers assume about 80% of the $20 billion expended annually in caring for gunshot victims.
The suit filed in Cook County Circuit Court charges that the 22 manufacturers and four distributors listed as defendants in the suit "saturate the market . . . knowing that persons will illegally bring [weapons] into" Chicago.
This way, they "maximize their profits while disclaiming any knowledge of or responsibility for where their products end up or how they are used," the suit charges.
Mr. Daley announced plans for new state laws to crack down on gun ownership, including annual limits on the purchase of guns.

Women’s health information available through federal Internet clearinghouse
WASHINGTON, DC—The National Women’s Health Information Center (NWHIC), a combination Internet site and toll-free hotline for women’s health information, is available through the U.S. Public Health Service.
The address for the Web site is www.4woman.gov; the toll-free number is (800) 994-WOMAN.
The Web site links to all federal agencies and publications on women’s health, and to hundreds of government-screened private sector organizations. NWHIC also provides answers to frequently asked questions on top health issues of concern to American women.
The toll-free number connects the caller to a health information specialist who will refer the caller to the right source of information. Women and their health care providers also can order fact sheets, brochures, and other printed materials by phone.
NWHIC hyperlinks to more than 1,000 Web sites, including more than 300 federal sites, and to more than 2,700 federal documents on women’s health, 1,800 of which are already on-line. It organizes resources in a subject index to facilitate searches, links to databases and Web search engines by topic and agency, and offers graphical and text versions to accommodate all users. Information specialists are available on its toll-free telephone service from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Eastern time.

For more Americans, regular’ care is found at hospital outpatient departments or not at all
WASHINGTON, DC—A growing number of people do not have a regular source of medical care, and those who do have a "medical home" are more likely to rely on a hospital outpatient department than a physician’s office, according to a study published in the Journal of Health Care for the Poor and Underserved.
From 1987 to 1992, the number of Americans who did not have a regular source of care rose from 30 million to 39 million, or from 17% to 21% of the population, according to an analysis of data from the National Health Interview Survey.
Every population group experienced declines in access to regular care, with the most pronounced reductions found among Hispanics, people with less education or lower income, those in worse health, and residents of the South or rural areas.
People with a regular source of medical care are more likely to have better access to care and more likely to receive needed services, particularly preventive health services.

Study says nursing homes dispense unnecessary, harmful drugs; side effects mistaken for symptoms
ST. LOUIS—Nearly one-third of nursing home residents receive at least one drug that is at best unnecessary for their condition or at worst can be potentially harmful to them, according to a study presented by the American College of Clinical Pharmacy in St. Louis.
Researchers investigated charts on 500,000 residents in five states over a five-year period living in Medicare- or Medicaid-certified homes in Kansas, Maine, Mississippi, New York, and South Dakota.
The most common drug being improperly dosed was Darvon (propoxyphene), which the study notes was given without a rational medical reason or could be deemed harmful in approximately one of eight residents studied. Along with other drugs given improperly, the study found that nearly one in three residents receive a drug that doesn’t help their condition, while one in 10 are dosed with drugs "likely" to cause undesirable side effects.
"It’s not unusual for a new problem to be treated by an additional drug, and not be recognized as a side effect of a drug the patient is taking already," says Kate Lapane, PhD, an epidemiologist at Brown University. "Misuse of drugs in the elderly population is of concern because the elderly can react differently to a drug due to the effects of aging, and can experience more side effects," she says.

“…When the working day is done, girls – they want to have fun, Oh girls just want to have fun!”
There’s something about old vinyl that makes me want to start jumping around, singing into my hairbrush – perhaps it dates me but those shiny black discs make me come over all nostalgic. Sigh. In my search for scratched records to cut up and recycle into jewellery I’ve found many 45′s that I couldn’t bear to break up, and until now they’ve sat there in a forlorn pile, gathering dust. There just had to be a use for them, and now I’ve found it! I’ve been making them into clocks.
What could be more appropriate? As a way of listening to music they may have been overtaken by other formats but as objects they are deliciously evocative of time. Where were you when the above record was released – were you even born then?
I still listen to my old vinyl and cherish it as I’m sure many do, and I would never recycle a record that is still playable – to someone, I know, that record is an old friend and I’ll leave it in the second hand shop so that they can find it. But any distressed beauties come home with me - a pretty centre, a great title, a cool band or song or just something that’s funny or seems evocative, because these lovely, scuffed old relics deserve a second chance.

In her search for the ornate and unique, Australian photographer and stylist Pia Jane Bijkerk traverses the three cities she calls home—Paris, Amsterdam and Sydney—to find winsome boutiques and ateliers peddling handmade goods well off the beaten path. A follow-up to her first book on such places in Paris, “Amsterdam: Made By Hand” takes an inside look at the venues where Bijkerk sources inspiration, raw materials and personal possessions.
Organized into 10 neighborhoods, Bijkerk covers every nook and cranny of Amsterdam’s maze-like streets. From more well-known destinations like the Noordermarkt—the open-air farmer’s and textile market—to the tiny retail havens nestled between canals that make up the charming Grachtengordel Zuid neighborhood, Bijkerk leads readers through Amsterdam store by store.
Standouts include the 8,000-title-strong bookshop Boekie Woekie—dedicated to tomes written or designed by artists—and Swarm, American expat and former Anthropologie visual director Leslie Oschmann’s private atelier. An impressive array of buttons sells at Knopenwinkel (pictured above), a boutique set up in a 1920s canal house, while the surprising location of Tesselschade-Arbeid Adelt (located in the city’s famed café district) stocks beautifully crafted goods all handmade by local women (pictured below) and maintained by its volunteer program.
For astute tourists or locals looking for a fresh take on their hometown, both “Amsterdam: Made By Hand” and its Paris counterpart make well-edited guides to some of each city’s most distinct offerings.

But McDonald’s selection headache is not only limited to his frontline. The Stirling boss admits that the No1 jersey is up for grabs too, with Callum Reidford and Greg Paterson neck and neck to face the Highland outfit at Borough Briggs.
Albion warmed up for the game with a 2-0 friendly defeat to Hibernian at Forthbank on Sunday and were in Stirlingshire Cup Final action against Falkirk last night in what was the squad’s last chance to stake a claim for a starting slot on Saturday.
McDonald said: “We’ll sit down and see how things are shaping up for the Elgin match, in terms of personnel and how we want to play.
“Callum and Greg Paterson were going to have 45 minutes each against Hibs but Greg started to feel unwell, so that’s why we didn’t change it — but both have been excellent in pre-season.
“There is real competition for places up front with the new signings. Young Sandy scored a hat-trick at Selkirk on Saturday and looked very bright when he came on against Hibs, so we have a lot of attacking options but we need all four of them to be scoring goals during the season.
“We also have Darren Smith and Phil Johnston who can provide pace in the wide areas.
“Hibs was the ideal work-out. It was a hot day against a full-time team, so we knew the lads would have to put in a shift but I thought we stuck at it really well.
“I’m happy with the way the squad is shaping up but we have few players who have taken knocks in games which is a bit frustrating.
“David McClune has a minor problem with his calf, Ross McGeachie hurt his foot and Darren Smith missed out at the weekend after picking up a hamstring strain at Gretna.”

Over the Kodak – Apple patent lawsuit case, the bankruptcy company sees a success for the first time in days. Apple has been informed by Allan Gropper, US Bankruptcy Judge that it cannot continue to pursue litigation with Eastman Kodak, reports Reuters. Kodak has been already looking out ways to block a patent decision outside the bankruptcy proceedings.
Apple back in February last month had asked the court to sue the photographic company over freezing a patent lawsuit which is pending in a federal court in New York. But since Gropper denied the request, it clearly indicates that the case now will resolved with more faster pace rather than later as it is earlier assumed.
Kodak has accused Cupertino-based Company of trying to slow the patent sale process, which it must undertake during the month of June under the terms of a $950 million loan which it had secured from Citibank, helping it to afloat through bankruptcy. Apple had argued that patent litigation has been a major part of Kodak’s strategy.

The 70 Ranch contracted with Historian Dana Echohawk to write a definitive history of the 70 Ranch and surrounding area on sale now through Amazon.com:
Early History - Frank Benton purchased the 70 Ranch in 1901 to grow timothy grass, redtop grass, and alfalfa. Benton also introduced sheep to the land, which subsequently became more successful than raising cattle.
School – The Hardin School was located on 70 Ranch land, and operated from 1895 to 1961. "We went to school at Hardin in a sod house and many times a pupil would raise a hand to announce, 'Teacher, there is a snake in the wall'", according to an article titled "Northern Colorado Pioneers" from the Greeley Tribune in 1987. Sometime around 1920, a brick schoolhouse was built, and remained standing until the schoolhouse was eventually demolished in 1969.
Hog Farm – The National Hog Farm, owned by the Bass Brothers, was located on the 70 Ranch. It was subsequently closed following an amendment to the Colorado Constitution prohibiting confined hog operations on the state land that checkerboards the 70 Ranch. The 70 Ranch was acquired by Bob Lembke in 2003. Today, the Ranch is actively involved in farming, grazing, water supplies, and oil and gas production.
A historical book about the 70 Ranch is currently being written by Dana Echohawk. More information about the history of the 70 Ranch and the surrounding area will be added to this page as it becomes available. Some excerpts from that book include ...
"Today, 31,360 acres in Weld County belong to the 70 Ranch. Its early stages were smaller, but the boundaries swelled each decade under management of its many owners. According to local historians and residents, the ranch got its name because it is 70 miles from Denver, 70 miles from Cheyenne and 70 miles from Sterling, the three primary cattle shipping hubs in northern Colorado during the nineteenth century. But then again, it may have been envisaged for the year 1870 when Major James Edward Williams and James W. Macrum first grazed cattle in the grassy sand hills north of the river and branded them with the number '70'."
"Originally, roundups were colloquial teamwork arranged between neighboring ranches, but during the 1870s, stock associations were established to outline roundup districts and develop regulations. The 70 Ranch was in Weld County District #11. Of the two major annual roundups, spring was for gathering stray calves and branding, typically getting underway as soon as new prairie grass was high enough to keep the saddle horses in good condition. The fall "beef roundup" occurred in September or October when 'beeves' were selected for market."
"In the early twentieth century, dry land farming techniques were taking shape in Weld County, and World War I created unprecedented markets for agricultural commodities and an agricultural boom developed."
On the Big Screen - A portion of James Michener's novel "Centennial" was filmed on location at the 70 Ranch; during filming, actress Darleen Carr and Zeljko Negovetic, who played the role of the chief wrangler, were married along the banks of the Platte River on the ranch.

Bevke was attested in written records in 1391 as zu Bewkch. The name is likely originally an accusative plural form of a masculine personal name, preserved today in the surname Bevk. However, derivation from the Slavic personal name *Bělъkъ (originally an epithet for someone with light skin) is problematic because the change -lk- > -vk- did not occur until the 16th century.
In 1782 Bevke had no more than 24 houses. New houses were built as the surrounding marshland gradually dried out. By 1937, the population had grown to 400 people living in 80 houses. This increased to 656 people in 1995, and over 1,000 in 2012.
The parish church in the settlement is dedicated to the Exaltation of the Holy Cross and belongs to the Ljubljana Archdiocese. The church was recorded as a chapel of ease associated with the parish of Vrhnika in 1689. The village cemetery formerly surrounded the church, but it was discontinued at that location in 1859 and a new cemetery was established to the south in the hamlet of Za Ježe. The cemetery was expanded and a new funeral chapel was built in 1994.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Basket Bunch Bundle to create a Happy Spring card to share with you today!
This week, we have a color challenge with Crushed Curry, Emerald Envy and Crumb Cake.
I started with a panel of Festive Birthday DSP that I adhered to a panel of Whisper White. Then, I cut out two Stitched Shapes Squares, one in Crushed Curry and one in the same Festive Birthday DSP. I dry fit them onto a panel of Whisper White so that I would know how much room I had for the rest of the pieces I had planned to add.
Next, I stamped the grass image from Basket Bunch in Emerald Envy onto a panel of Whisper White. Happy Spring was then stamped in the upper right hand corner, also in Emerald Envy. I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to line the words up because they are single stamps from the Crazy About You stamp set.
My flowers, leaves, and bunnies were stamped next. Then, I pulled out the Basket Builder Framelits Dies and cut them, the tall grass, and a basket out. My Whisper White art panel was then adhered to a panel of Emerald Envy. I added the squares with liquid glue and adhered the tall grass to them with more glue. Two of the flowers were colored a little with a blender pen and some Crushed Curry ink. The basket and white bunny were attached with Dimensionals, while the Crumb Cake bunnies were adhered with liquid glue.
One of the Lace Doilies was adhered to the Festive Birthday DSP panel with liquid glue, then the art panel popped on with Dimensionals. A small bow was attached to the basket handle with a glue dot, and some Enamel Shapes added to the flower centers. The inside has a plain Whisper White panel with a little strip of the matching DSP attached to the bottom. And there you have it, a Happy Spring card. I hope you are experiencing a little spring like weather wherever you are!

Which is how We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves starts off - with Rosemary describing a family that has dwindled to just herself and her parents. A family whose members scarcely talk to each other. And we learn that seventeen years ago, Rosemary's sister, Fern, disappeared and a year later her brother left home.
The story see-saws between the middle - where there's an interesting scene in which Rosemary finds herself charged with disruptive behaviour and assaulting a police officer alongside a flamboyant drama student called Harlow - and the beginning, filling in the gaps of Rosemary's childhood that will lead us to discover the elephant in the room - the story of Fern.
The middle describes Rosemary's sort-of friendship with Harlow, who has a talent for getting in and out of trouble. Rosemary doesn't usually have friends because she has never been able to trust herself to talk, not wanting to reveal too much of herself, which is usually the foundation for friendship. It is lucky she has a nice flatmate or she would be seriously alone.
And the reason why she is so alone, so adrift and unable to settle on one particular course or another, is that she was from a baby a part of an experiment, and her sister wasn't really her sister but a chimpanzee. From the 1930s to the 70's, behavioural scientists were fascinated by primates and their similarity to humans and in particular whether or not they could be trained to communicate with people using sign language.
While much was documented about the animals at the heart of such projects, the story of the children raised with them was not. Taking up the challenge, Fowler has created a well-researched and believable novel that is also hugely original. Rosemary is a quirky, sensitive narrator with a dry sense of humour, when she could so easily have been self-pitying and too damaged to be sympathetic. It is obvious that the experiment that has made Rosemary the way she is has done some harm, but it has meant she has a very original view of the world. At the back of her mind is the thought that Fern and her brother, Lowell, are out there somewhere and it is surely her destiny to try to find them, and this creates a powerful storyline.
While the novel has a lot to say about the cruelty associated with scientific experimentation on animals - and there are some startlingly haunting images here - there's also plenty of warmth and humour. Fowler creates such interesting characters, and the scenes she throws them into - the bars, cafes, student apartments and even the police station - are entertaining particularly when seen through through Rosemary's eyes.
It takes a real talent to produce a book that has a powerful message and is also fun to read. And Fowler just keeps getting better and better; this is an author who is definitely on my watch list.

What is dietary fiber?
Dietary Fiber is exactly as it reads, being the total amount of fiber found within a food.
What is total carbohydrate?
Exactly as it reads, total carbohydrate is the total amount of carbohydrate contained within a food, including dietary fiber.
What is net carbohydrate?
Net carbohydrate is the total amount of carbohydrate, minus the amount of dietary fiber found in a food and is often displayed on the front of food packaging. Essentially, this is a fancy way for food manufactures to market their food as being more superior than their competitors. For example, a protein bar manufacturer may make the claim that their product is more superior product as it contains only 5g net carbs, while their competitor may only be able to claim 15g net carbohydrate because their protein bar contains less carbohydrate from digestible carbohydrate sources (i.e. sugar) and a greater amount of dietary fiber.
Should we track dietary fiber as carbohydrate?
It is frequently assumed that dietary fiber contains zero calories. However, this is not an accurate statement. Dietary fiber typically yields ~2 calories per gram. Soluble fiber is thought to provide greater number of calories than insoluble fiber. This is due to its ability to be digested through a process of fermentation by our gut bacteria, which intern produces short chain fatty acids (SFA’s) which can be reabsorbed across the intestinal lumen and used as energy if required.
How much dietary fiber should you consume?
The daily value for fiber is 25g – 30g per day which is based on a 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your nutritional requirements, your daily value may be higher or lower than this amount. Statistics show that most Americans only consume between10g – 15g per day.
What can be declared as dietary fiber?
Dietary fiber that can be declared on the nutrition information label includes certain naturally occurring fibers that are “intrinsic and intact” in plants, as well as added isolated or synthetic non-digestible soluble and insoluble carbohydrates. Anything considered to be non-dietary fiber must instead be declared in the total carbohydrate section of the nutrition panel.
A food manufacture can only list dietary fiber if they can scientifically demonstrate that the source of dietary fiber being used in their product has a physiological effect that is beneficial to human health.
An example of a positive physiological health benefit from dietary fiber in humans includes;
- Lowering blood glucose and cholesterol levels
- Lowering blood pressure
- Improved laxation and bowel function
- Increased mineral absorption in the intestinal tract
- Reduced energy intake (for example, due to the fiber promoting a feeling of fullness).
Other physiological endpoints could be added to the complete list if scientific evidence exists to support their inclusion.
Prior to the current definition of dietary fiber, the FDA regulations did not contain a definition of dietary fiber but rather relied on analytical methods for measuring levels of dietary fiber present in food. Therefore, an isolated or synthetic non-digestible carbohydrate could be added to foods and quantified as a dietary fiber even if it did not necessarily provide a beneficial physiological effect to human health. The rules have changed and there is now a definitive list of dietary fiber products that can be included in food products. The fibers listed below are the most common sources being added to food and can be declared on the Nutrition Facts label as dietary fiber.
FDA approved isolated and synthetic non-digestible carbohydrates
- Gum Acacia
- Apple Fiber
- Bamboo Fiber
- Corn Hull Fiber
- Cottonseed Fiber
- Inulin/Oligofructose/Synthetic Short Chain Fructooligosaccharides
- Karaya Gum
- Oat Hull Fiber
- Pea Fiber
- Potato Fibers
- Rice Bran Fiber
- High Amylose Corn/Maize Starch (Resistant Starch 2)
- Retrograded Corn Starch (Resistant Starch 3)
- Resistant Wheat and Maize Starch (Resistant Starch 4)
- Soluble Corn Fiber
- Soy Fiber
- Sugar Beet Fiber
- Sugar Cane Fiber
- Wheat Fiber
- Xanthan Gum
What is the difference between naturally occurring fiber and added fiber?
Naturally occurring fiber is sometimes referred to as “intrinsic” or “intact” fiber. This occurs in foods such as vegetables, whole grains, fruits, cereal bran, flaked cereal and flours.
Foods containing natural dietary fibers have been shown to be beneficial, and manufacturers do not need to demonstrate that they provide beneficial physiological effects to human health.
Only manufacturers using fibers that are added to foods, either by isolating them from other foods or synthesizing them, need to demonstrate a beneficial physiological effect to human health to meet the definition of “dietary fiber.”
Are their other types of fibers ?
In addition to naturally occurring fibers, the FDA has identified the following added non-digestible carbohydrates as meeting the dietary fiber definition:
- Beta-glucan soluble fiber
- Psyllium husk
- Guar gum
- Locust bean gum
How accurate is the dietary fiber amount listed on the nutrition information label?
The analytical methods used to determine the dietary fiber content of a food cannot distinguish the difference between types of non-digestible carbohydrates, therefore, food manufacturers must keep records for foods that contain dietary fibers which do comply with the regulatory definition of dietary fiber, along with added non-digestible carbohydrates that do not meet the definition of dietary fiber.
The amount of dietary fiber declared on a product label must however represent the amount of fiber that is quantified by analytical methods, minus the amount that does not meet the definition of dietary fiber.
A food manufacture is not permitted to declare any fiber type on the nutrition information panel that does not meet those which are recognized as having a positive physiological health benefit.
Complying with food labels
FDA recently ordered all food manufactures with an annual food sales exceeding the amount of $10 million, to comply with these new standards by July 26, 2018. For smaller businesses, the cutoff date was extended to July of 2019. However, a number of companies petitioned against this as they felt it was not only an expensive process to recall products with incorrect labels, they stated that it was simply not enough time to reformulate their products in order to make the same health claims. Evidently, FDA revoked the cutoff date and have not set a new date. Unfortunately, this means there are a number of mislabeled products still available for sale. There has not been a revised cutoff date for smaller food manufacturers to comply with the new labeling legislations.

This isnt scientific, techically accurate, or informative but its a heck of a lot of fun to watch.
So basically Motortrend decided to create the ultimate drag race by using 11 of the most coveted, high end, luxury vehicles and see who would win in a drag race.
Arguably it may actually be the driver’s skill that takes the win and not the actual car, but like I said its not scientific just fun.
Im not a car expert but shouldn’t there be a Lamborghini in there somewhere?
See if you can guess which car will win the race.


Upper Creek Falls
4-22-16 There are 2 waterfalls on this section of Upper Creek that can be done either separately or as a loop hike. The 1.7 mile loop hike is moderate to difficult with a loss, then gain, of about 500' in elevation. Part of the hike takes you to the bedrock area at the top of the 50' Upper Creek Falls. There's plenty of room to safely enjoy the view, but if you get too close to the edge and fall here - and people have - you will die. Part of the enjoyment of the lower falls area is walking along the bedrock, so I don't recommend going on a rainy day when the rock will be slippery. There's also some rock hopping involved and if the water levels are up, you will have to get your feet wet. During the summer months, the area can get crowded with people wanting to swim and rock slide, so go early if you want shots without people.
Directions: From the intersection of US64 by-pass and NC181 in Morganton, drive north on NC181. (I'm sorry I don't have the exact mileage, but this will be very close.) At about 11 miles, pass the right hand turn at a church for Brown Mountain Beach Rd which will take you towards the Wilson Creek gorge. Continue on NC181 north for about 7 more miles and look for the Brown Mountain Lights overlook on the right just after mile marker 20. Continue past this overlook for about 2 more miles and look for the right hand turn up a narrow gravel drive to the parking area. You'll know you are getting close when the road heading north splits to 2 lanes going north for a slow vehicle passing area and I believe it's just past mile marker 22. If you are coming from the Blue Ridge Parkway, drive south on NC181 for a little over 5.5 miles and look for the drive on the left. There's some type of Pisgah NF sign here also.
Once in the parking area, the yellow blazed trail heads off from either side. The trail to the left as you enter the parking area goes to the upper falls and the trail to the right goes to the lower cascades. The area where people slide is at the lower falls and cascades. The trail to that area switchbacks down the mountain to the creek and if I'm doing the loop, I find it easier to come up that way, so I begin by heading to the left towards Upper Creek Falls. The trail begins by paralleling 181 for the first 1/4 mile and is fairly level, but then bends to the right and descends sharply before reaching a set of steps that take you down to creek level. During this descent, you should catch a glimpse of a smaller waterfall just up creek from the main falls. When you arrive at creek level, you are about 0.4 miles into the hike and are at the top of Upper Creek Falls. On a dry day, you can safely get out on the bedrock and enjoy the view from the top of the falls. Do not get too close and do not for any reason get in the creek right above the waterfall!
top of Upper Creek Falls
Back at the steps, look to the left to see a part of the smaller waterfall you saw from the trail. You can rock hop up to it and during normal water flow, safely swim without fear of being washed over the main waterfall. To continue the loop, you have to rock hop - or wade - across the creek in the area of the steps to the overused camp site. Pass through the camp site and continue down the trail. This trail was reworked several years ago and is in a lot better shape than it used to be. To get to the view of Upper Creek Falls, you used to have to scramble down steeply to the viewing rock. Now, pass that scramble area and continue down the trail for about 0.1 miles to a switchback to the right. This section of trail comes back to the viewing area where you can easily get out on the exposed rock for a better view. You can see all of this in the above video which begins near the bottom of the steps. You'll see me climbing up a big rock for a view down the waterfall - do not let children or uncoordinated adults go up here! If you fall from here you will die.
Upper Creek Falls
Be very careful at this viewing area also. You can scoot down the rock for different views as you see in the above video, but the rock is steeper than it looks. Stay on the dry part only! Remember that rock is harder than bone and fleshy tissue. Once you've soaked in this beautiful spot, go back out to the trail and continue following it down to where it meets the creek again and the lower falls. You are now about 1 mile into the hike. On the way down, you may notice other side trails that lead down to other sections of the creek you might find interesting.
The area of the lower falls and cascades is really beautiful. To really appreciate all of it, bring sandals or plan to get your feet wet. The trail comes out right at the base of the small waterfall in the next shot. There's a lot of bedrock here on this side of the creek where you can wander down along side of the creek as it flows over this beautifully colored rock.
lower cascades on Upper Creek
Before you go anywhere, look straight across. The path back up to the parking area continues across the creek and this is where you will have to cross. You can either hop across, wade across, or you'll have to go back the same way you came. From here the trail switchbacks steeply back up the mountain and to the parking area. Please stay on the trails and don't take the shortcuts that by-pass the switchbacks.
As you walk down the bedrock from the first cascade at the trail crossing, the next cascade you come to is where people slide down the wet rock into the shallow pool. Fun times!
sliding at lower cascades of Upper Creek
Once you walk the bedrock down to the pool, you'll have to wade across to continue (which I didn't in the above video). There's another cascade and more area to hang out, then the creek enters back into the forest and continues down the mountain. You can also access Upper Creek from farther down 181 south. If you come back out of the parking area for Upper Creek Falls, turn left, head down 181 south for just over 5 miles and turn left on to FR982. This gravel forest road cuts hard to the left, then heads down. (FYI - you can take FR982 for about 10 miles and it will dead end into the gravel road SR1328 that runs through Wilson Creek Gorge.) From 181, drive 1.3 miles on FR982 and turn left on to FR197. This road parallels Upper Creek and ends at about a mile at a parking area and some dispersed camping sites. A trail leads up creek from here and the more adventurous of you may be able to find more swimming spots along the creek. There are also more dispersed camping sites along FR197 and quite a few along FR982 as it continues towards Wilson Creek. These sites are free with NO facilities. If you use them, please pack out ALL of your trash!
