How to make an m&m costume: Posted on november 13, 2012. It was tons of work but so much fun for us and the kids!
An m&m costume works best as a group costume. Making an m&m costumethis is a page about making an m&m costume. Create your “logo” by printing a lower case “m” from ms word onto a piece of regular copy paper.
You'll definitely outshine the rest of the real halloween candy. Could wear black or white tights. Right down to the kids matching hats.
We took tubing from the lawn and garden store and shaped it around her body and used it for a pattern. Turn the costume right side out, so the seams are on the inside. Dressing for halloween as this favorite candy would be fun.
The hardest part of making this costume will be deciding which color to be. The scottish king macbeth was a real person, born around 1005, but he is probably more widely known through the play by william shakespeare, which takes a few liberties with the actual story. Costume, followed by 125 people on pinterest.
These lip smacking treats were invented during the spanish civil war. This will be the stencil for your iron on. Wait for glue to cool then test fit on your kid and glue openings a little more shut if necessary.
They had it all worked out in their minds, all i had to do was take them to the costume store to buy some accessories and then make m&m shirts using my silhouette cameo. This particular year, we went alp out and homemade all 7 costumes as m&m’s! They scored twice as much candy …
Again, the more you can close the seams, the better the m & m will. We used the lower case “m” bolded in rockwell condensed font at 600 px. For halloween this year my daughter and her friend want to be “matching cute m&m girls”.

Mouth watering m & ms. I made it by blowing up a picture of an m&m bag and modge podge /taping it to a black plastic bag that i trimmed to look like the edge of an m&m bag. 2 pieces of white felt (you could probably squeeze it out of one piece for a child but it’s safer to have a second piece on hand) 6 pieces of colored felt.
Sew or mark a big m on the front. Then each person makes the costume for that color m&m. I think they turned out pretty darn cute if you ask me!
Be one of these colorful m & m spokescandies for halloween. Stuff the costume so it would fill out or balloon out. A skeleton is a classic homemade costume idea that can be easy to make with black clothes and white paint, or can be more complex.
You can use round painted cardboard (or covered in fabric or material of the right color), poster board in the chosen color, or color felt fabric.

Now on your computer, scroll through the fonts of lower case m's to find one that looks like the logo. Of the three costumes i made for halloween, the m&m costume for my older daughter took me the longest to make.

Voting this year was COMPLICATED, but maybe this new way was for the best. Typically, voting takes place on a singular day and each polling place is full of long lines and exhausted poll workers. This year, voting was spread out over a few weeks, in addition to polling places having a drop off area for ballots and the option to mail in a ballot. To encourage social distancing, lines were spread out and masks were required. Many people have actually said they liked this method the best because it allowed them to fit voting into their schedule rather than rushing to the polling place during their lunch break or after work.
While many seniors at Assumption were not old enough to vote, a few were. I talked to a few of them about their experience and heard both good and bad. Senior Kate Wheeler said it was so exciting to get to use her voice especially with so many things affecting our age group right now. She said that some of the older poll workers accidentally told her to put her ballot in backwards, but she really enjoyed the experience overall. When she scanned her ID, everyone clapped because she was a first time voter.
Senior Alli Brooks was also a first time voter, and she had a great time voting this year. She said, “It was cool to turn 18 and be able to vote in a presidential election right away. My favorite part about voting at the fairgrounds was that all the poll workers clapped for me because I was a first time voter.” Alli moved to Louisville her freshman year, so this was also her first presidential election in Kentucky.
For an outside perspective, I asked my grandma, Carol Price, how she felt about voting this year. My grandma is 79 years old and lives in Middletown. She went in person to vote this year at the Hurstbourne Marriott. She said she enjoyed being able to wait outside in the sunshine rather than everyone being crammed inside. She said the poll workers were extremely nice, and this new method was much better. She never felt unsafe, and everyone wore masks. My grandpa served in the U.S. Navy for both World War II and the Korean War, so my grandma says that anyone who can vote definitely should.
Kentucky’s voting procedure greatly changed this year. Typically, mail-in voting is only for a specific group of people, but this year, it was extended to anyone who was afraid that in-person voting would put them at-risk for COVID-19. As of last December, those convicted of certain felonies regained their right to vote upon completion of all jail-time and probation.
According to Ballotpedia.com, there is no election in Kentucky in 2021, but there will be one in 2022. For many of us, we will be 18 by the time November 2022 rolls around. This election will include one of Kentucky’s Senate spots, currently held by Paul Ryan, and other local elections.
Voting may be permanently changed, but that may be a positive change. To all you new voters, CONGRATS!! You are a part of America’s history.

If you strive to make your products environmentally friendly, it is important that their labels be made with green materials as well. There have been many products that had otherwise earth-friendly packaging but were disqualified from being recycled simply because of the label. Fortunately, Reliable Label has recyclable labels available that are fitting for a wide range of products.
Green / Recycled Labels
To assure that our recyclable labels are "green" we offer labels that are made from post-consumer waste, are able to be recycled safely, and many of our labels include renewable ingredients such as bamboo, corn, sugar cane or other natural materials.
Even among recycled labels, there are different label materials that work better with some types of products than others. Tree-Free label stock, made from bamboo, cotton, and sugar cane has a smooth surface that is perfect for wine bottles and some specialty foods. Poly lactic acid (PLA) labels are made from the lactic acid found in starch rich products such as wheat, corn, and sugar beets. The properties of these labels mimic those made from petroleum based plastics while being better for the earth. Resistant to moisture, PLA labels are suitable for application in showers and refrigerators. PLA labels produce 68% fewer greenhouse gasses, and are completely non toxic.
If you are unsure which earth friendly materials are the best fit for your product, our friendly customer service experts can discuss your product needs and help you find the best label possible. In addition to having access to eco-friendly materials, we are committed to providing the utmost precision to all our labeling products and our award winning design team can help you develop the perfect look for your product. Whether you represent a large corporation or a small business, at Relialabel we stand behind every label we print and are committed to your satisfaction.

The protests by the Municipal Corporation Department (MCD) workers against the Delhi government over non-payment of dues entered its fourth day today.
Earlier this week, MCD workers had previously protested outside Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia’s residences to raise their demands.
Along with salaries, the employees are also demanding the payment of arrears, regularization of contract-based employees and unification of the three corporations.
Delhi has been grappling with piles of garbage following the indefinite strike announced by the municipal sanitation workers.
In October last year, sanitation workers had struck work over non-payment of their salaries.
With the city facing a garbage problem following the strike by MCD sanitation workers, Delhi government yesterday said that it would soon announce a plan for clearing the waste as it asserted that it would not let people in the national capital live amid piles of rubbish.

Ameliorative Effect of Quercetin and Luteolin Supplements on Histology of Liver and Lungs Intoxicated with Nicotine in Young Rats
Nicotine is a potential inducer of oxidative stress, which can damage the numerous tissues and biological molecules. Nicotine is first metabolized in liver, and the lung is the main target organ susceptible to smoking; therefore, the purpose of the current examination was scrutinizing the impacts of nicotine on these organs using the histological method, and studying the ameliorative (additive or synergistic) effects of quercetin and luteolin supplements in target tissues against nicotine toxicity in young albino rats. Fifty animals were involved in this study which were divided into five groups of ten rats, they were treated as: (1) untreated Control (Cont); (2) Nicotine (Ni) treated (0.75 mg/kg b.w./d, i.p.); (3) Nicotine as above with intragastric administration of quercetin (Ni+Qu) (50mg/kg b.w) or (4) with luteolin (50mg/kg b.w) in Group (Ni+Lu), and (5) nicotine with combination of quercetin and luteolin (Ni+Qu+Lu) as described above. All groups were treated for 8 weeks, then their liver and lung tissues were dissected out. Several histological damages were noticed in (Ni) rats such as degeneration changes in hepatocytes, slight congestion of central vein (CV) and cellular infiltration. Nicotine caused drastic changes in lung tissues such as, inflammatory cells aggregation inside and outside the bronchiol artery with mild increase in the thickness of bronchial muscular wall and marked thickening in the alveolar wall. All supplemented groups ameliorated the damage that induced by nicotine injection in both liver and lung tissues. In liver tissues, the quercetin (Ni+Qu) supplemented rats showed the better improvement nearby normal hepatocytes than the other groups, while in lung tissues, the luteolin supplemented rats had better recovery than the other treatments. These observations suggested that the intake of quercetin and luteolin as supplements may be useful in combating tissue injury that is a result of nicotine toxicity.

These Os designs were painted in 2006 on a half size floor mat using JoSonja acrylics.
One was made for my daughter's dog, Annie. The circles fit her food and water dish. Calle's mat was painted for my mother cat. She loves fish, so it's painted under the space for her food and water container. I use little paw prints in the borders. They are varnished 4-5 times with JoSonja Satin Finish and are easily wiped up and kept clean.
I chose to use the Ose style because it's so bright and colorful for this project. The town of Os is located in the Hordaland fylke (district) south of Bergen. Johannes Johannessen Tveiteras (1762-1842), originally from Sweden, was one of the first rosemalers from this area. Nils Tveiteras Midhus (1795-1875), one of his two sons, moved to Os in 1820 where he developed his own distinctive style. He combined Telemark elements with geometric designs and old Hordaland motifs. His son, Annanias Midthus Tveit (1847-1924) further developed the tradition with great creativity and love of color. Rosemaling was late blooming in this area and didn’t reach its peak until the turn of the 20th Century. It is his style that I’m intrigued with and used on the flowers.
The packet includes four pages of instruction five enlarged photographs and the line drawings.

Switching to the One
After putting off the switch for quite a while, it had finally became official. I would be retiring my Nexus 4 in favour of the HTC One.
After using the One for the last couple of months, the difference became rather obvious. First of all, the speed as far as blogging was concerned. The main drafting app I use is called Writer. The speed between the two devices were very obvious when I type. The One was definitely superior.
Then came the camera. Not much difference between the two camera-wise although One took better photos off the sensor, but when it post-production, using Snapseed was definitely a better experience on the One. Since the file was smaller - the sensor chip was only 4 MP - editing was snappier.
But the main killer was battery life. It was abysmal on the Nexus 4. Snapdragon Battery Guru helped a bit, but not much.
I might still be visiting the Nexus especially if it had the 4.3 upgrade pushed down first. But for daily use, I had to use the One. There were just to many reasons to switch.

Mr. Strauss-Kahn said he had heard from many financial officials this weekend that the West’s focus on fuel, at the expense of food, was a "crime against humanity." Though he noted that the I.M.F. is primarily a monetary and financial agency, he said it would try to "review its tools" to help countries pay for food imports.
I'm in the middle of a longer essay inspired, in part, by George Soros' new book, The New Paradigm for Financial Markets: The Credit Crisis of 2008 and what it means. Here's a few thoughts while I wait for my muse to finish singing that score.
The financial powers that be have noticed a disturbance in the force that binds society together- rapidly rising food prices.
According to the NYTimes: Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the managing director of the International Monetary Fund, said the food crisis posed questions about the survivability of democracy and political regimes.
"As we know in the past, sometimes those questions lead to war," he said. "We now need to devote 100 percent of our time to these questions."
There was a time in the not-so-distant past when financiers financed entrepreneurs. Now, in part as a result of Greenspan's et alios deification of that economic sector, financiers are often considered entrepreneurs. Thus, it seems to me, financiers feel justified in financing themselves- as if such will alleviate the problems of the world.
As I've argued in the past, finance, or intermediation, if you prefer, has proven to be a powerful catalyst which can accelerate material goods production. But it is not a thing unto itself. Its utility should not be measured in the $s it creates, as we do now with GDP, but in the increased flow of goods.
Put another way, while a nation of farmers might want for many of the niceties of life, they will at least have food- a nation of financiers will soon go hungry.
Thus I find Mr. Strauss-Kahn's comment above about reviewing its tools a bit funny. Unless those tools include planting, irrigation, distribution and harvesting equipment, the IMF may well prove impotent to the task.
When you're hungry, you don't go to the bank. You go to a farm.

Ruger LCP Gun Review
Caliber: .380 ACP
Barrel Length: 2.75 in
Ammunition Capacity: 6+1
Price: About $300
Ruger LCP Usage & Features
Are you right handed or left handed?
What features does this gun have that appealed to you?
It’s small and very easy to conceal.
Tell us about shooting this gun:
The LCP Custom is rough to shoot – long trigger pull, strong recoil, and the bottom edge of my trigger finger is raw after just a few magazines.
How does it fit your hand, how do you like the sights, how difficult is it to rack the slide, how would you describe the trigger pull, and how would you describe the recoil?
It’s really too small for my hand (I’m 5’11” and have fairly large hands for a woman) but I wanted something that I could easily conceal. I ended up dropping a little dot of white nail polish into the front sight because it was hard to see otherwise. That has helped tremendously (see picture).
How reliable is it?
I’ve put about 100 rounds through it and have had several misfeeds from the magazine, several FTE’s.
Any problems with any type of ammunition?
I haven’t noticed any better results with any ammo … it all seems to misfeed at some point!
Does this gun have any specific ammunition requirements? If so, please explain:
I couldn’t find any.
What do you dislike about shooting this gun, if anything?
The LCP Custom is not a fun gun to shoot. As mentioned earlier, the trigger pull is long and the recoil is hard. Apparently, the bottom edge of my trigger finger must rub the trigger guard when firing because I can only shoot a couple of magazines through it before my finger gets raw.
Was it easy to take down and clean?
The firing pin is a little difficult to remove, you have to use a flat-head screwdriver and lever it against the side of the slide to get the pin out. I’ve scratched that spot up a little bit just trying to get the pin out. And getting it back in is a bit of a booger too. Otherwise pretty much like any other gun.
Would you recommend this gun?
For someone considering this gun, what would you tell them?
Get something a little bigger and more comfortable to shoot. I only hope that should I need to use it, the one round that I fought into the chamber would do the trick because I don’t trust the rest of the rounds to make it there!
Anything else you would like to share about the gun?
Don’t sacrifice reliability for easy concealment!

I’m learning more and more that intimacy is about knowing my identity found only in God (who is Love). I must hear the words of belonging, belovedness, and blessedness from Love (God) so that I can have a self to offer in intimacy. Sometimes intimacy is not happening because the other is not dancing. They don’t have a healthy sense of identity as found in God. So it causes them not to have a self to offer in order to dance. Too often, we blame the other for our shortcomings or lack of self-worth. Yet, we must return to the voice of Love to claim our self-worth in God. The following is adapted from Richard Rohr’s Daily Meditations:
A relationship demands two. So the first step in the dance of intimacy is an appropriate sense of self. We all know stories about teenagers or even older people who give themselves away to another person in the hope of finding themselves. It never works, of course, but it’s not their fault. They must not have gotten those mirror neurons from the gaze of love to know who they were. So they think this handsome man or this beautiful woman is going to take care of me and is going to give me my identity.
In the story of Moses and the burning bush, there is first of all an allurement, a seduction and attraction, a fascinating experience (the bush that is burning but not consumed). Moses is attracted to it. Then Yahweh says, “Take off your shoes. Come no nearer.” God is not calling Moses to enmeshment or loss of his own self. Yahweh is telling Moses, “I know who I am, and you are about to enter into an experience of the sacred with me, but stand your ground. Come no nearer.” God honors the other as distinct. So love is not absorption, love is not a martyr complex where you let other people use you. When you know your inherent divine identity, you are truly ready to participate in the sacred dance of intimacy. And in the dance of love there must be at least two.
Gateway to Silence:
The gaze of God receives me exactly as I am.

There have only ever been 9 British astronauts. But Yorkshire can lay claim to the first ever with Sheffield born Helen Sharman and two more British astronauts, Nicholas Patrick and Piers Sellers have Yorkshire connections.
But space isn’t all about astronauts.
Satellites and the data they provide are critical. They are involved in everything from traffic management to farm productivity, from digital ecosystems to smart cities. Earth observation satellites monitor our environment and provide essential services in time of natural disaster. New applications combining satellite data, GPS and communications technology will help drive down carbon emissions. And that’s just the start.
Since 2010 the UK space sector has trebled in size now generating £15bn each year for the economy and employing around 42,000 people. It supports approximately 15% of the UK’s wider GDP through space-based services.
With the global space market predicted to grow to over £400 billion per annum by 2030 the government is keen to ensure that the UK captures at least 10% of it, and at the same time contributes to growth in the regions as part of the UK levelling up agenda.
Enter Space Hub Yorkshire.
This initiative aims to ensure that Yorkshire becomes a destination for space. By creating a vibrant network of business, academia and stakeholders in this sector there is an opportunity to increase inward investment, intrapreneurship and entrepreneurship in our region.
We have world leading expertise in our Yorkshire Universities. Connecting this orbit of innovation to our businesses can create new ideas, opportunities and business models.
Supported by our LEPs, Space Hub Yorkshire will create a front door to connectivity, ideas, funding and support. It will create a network, organise events, connect people and business, provide a hub for the region and ensure Yorkshire is a thought leader in space.
Our regional growth strategy will be published in April. This exciting piece of work will lead the way for growing our share of the UK space market. It has involved the UK Space Agency, the Space Applications catapult and the thoughts of stakeholders in the region. It will map our landscape and provide the nuanced understanding we need to succeed in our ambitions. Early findings show excellence in both upstream manufacturing and downstream data lead activities and a wealth of activity already happening in our region.
Mandy Ridyard, Chair of Space Hub Yorkshire and Chief Executive of Bradford-based aerospace engineering company Produmax said “This dynamic initiative aims to develop a world leading space hub. Accelerating economic growth through technology and innovation is a priority for our region and this exciting work will create new opportunities by harnessing the world-class expertise and talent already in our region”.
And our region has bucket loads of space talent. One of the world’s largest and most sophisticated satellite signal intelligence facilities is operated by Yorkshire residents on behalf of the people of the United States, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. Satsense in Leeds students have recently been tracking the new A74 iceberg that broke off the brunt ice shelf last week, using Sentinel-1 data. Hull born Edward Milne (1896 – 1950) was largely responsible for helping to understand stars – his research paved the way for our modern understanding of the history and evolution of the universe. More than 46,000 attendees have learned about space and the universe via the E.A. Milne Centre for Astrophysics established in Edward’s legacy in Hull.
Training the next generation of space leaders is a key priority for Space Hub Yorkshire. Our pipeline of talent is essential in helping deliver our Yorkshire space ambition. And our ambition is huge. Watch this space!

Oil and Candle
Oil and Candle
(Timeless, Infinite Light, 2016)
This book traces imagined rituals, failed rituals, and magical objects of Santería in confronting issues of race, warfare, and the precarity of Latino lives. Object-oriented, Oil and Candle localizes biographical, theoretical, and imagined content in a Limpias oil and an Abrecaminos prayer candle (or velón). This book is the winner of the Timeless, Infinite Light TRACT contest and was released in March 2016.
PRAISE FOR OIL AND CANDLE
Gabriel Ojeda-Sague's poems, to borrow a phrase from Robert Hayden, are 'wild, patterned, and free.' The language is restless; it leaps and alights in surprising ways. A ghost calls on a landline and 'time/ opens its clouds.' Paradoxically, the non-linear unfolding of sense and music allows Ojeda-Sague to craft a vivid matrix of patterns: identity, rituals, queerness, citizenship, and war. At the heart of this matrix is a voice --discerning and serendipitous -- that moves from intimate telling to a gorgeous torquing of syntax and line. The aesthetic freedom fueling Oil and Candle is exhilarating. All language is at play for Ojeda-Sague, which allows him to score the page with multiple tongues and registers. Oil and Candle is a remarkable and searing book. A must-read.
"When I exist, / I am complicit.” Opening Oil and Candle I found myself poured into a whispering ceremonial basin. Ojeda-Sague wields reverence and perceptivity like a sudden dusting of snow in a too warm winter. His honest rhythm, the posture of his questing will rip through you the way that a photograph develops in a darkroom.


Bristol family in tree house demolition warning
A tree house in Bristol is facing demolition after a council warned it would require planning permission to stay there.
It comes despite the tree being home to a tree house for more than 20 years.
Owner Hamish Beeston said: "It is upsetting that we've been asked to take it down."
A Bristol City Council spokeswoman said they had received complaints that "the tree house is in a conservation area and is highly visible from the road".
The council warned that because the tree house in the Cotham area was not of a good enough quality any application for planning permission was likely to be refused.
Mr Beeston, who has two children aged nine and six, said: "It seems that there's an awful lot of other things planning-wise, architecture-wise in Bristol and this area that you could complain about more than a tree house."
He said there had been a tree house there for almost 25 years but the current structure was built three years ago.
Mr Beeston has set up a Facebook campaign to keep the tree house, which has attracted support from 70 people so far.
The council said that the owners would be "required to move the tree house within one month".
"If the tree house is not removed formal enforcement action will be taken," it said.

Tobacco Association of Malawi (Tama), the country’s largest tobacco growers’ body, has taken a swipe at the World Health Organisation (WHO) for intensifying its campaign towards abolishing tobacco farming.
Such a move by WHO could spell doom for Malawi, whose economy relies heavily on tobacco for its foreign exchange revenue, gross domestic product (GDP) growth and employment of millions of Malawians directly and indirectly.
Tama chief executive officer Graham Kunimba told Business News on Saturday that the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (WHO-FCTC) has to come up with scientific-proven evidence on its fight against tobacco farming and offer an alternative viable crop.
“Tobacco is a legal crop and, therefore, we will continue producing this crop to satisfy the demand that is there for the product,” he said.
Kunimba’s statement comes at a time anti-tobacco lobbyists led by WHO continue to pile pressure on the global tobacco industry, sending shivers to countries such as Malawi whose lifeline hugely depend on tobacco, which brings in about 60 percent of the country’s foreign exchange earnings.
FCTC is the brainchild of the WHO to specifically handle anti-tobacco issues and its treaty carries a whole range of articles which target an eventual end to the world of smoking.
“WHO must come to us with scientifically-proven evidence to say stop tobacco production and this is a viable alternative crop, which you can enter into and continue enjoying your life. Without that, we will continue growing tobacco.
“As of now, Malawi is not a signatory to the [Framework Convention on Tobacco Control] treaty, which means that we are not in any way bound with whatever recommendations they are coming up with,” added Kunimba.
Tobacco Control Commission (TCC) chief executive officer Bruce Munthali said they are monitoring the situation, and plans are underway for the country to be party to the FCTC to ensure that they raise their issues from within.
He said the move by WHO-FCTC is detrimental to the country’s tobacco industry which, he said, is the backbone of the country’s economy.

Pantera’s official Instagram account recalled some memories from the anniversary of their last show at Beast Feast in Japan back in 2001.
Pantera is considered one of the greatest heavy metal bands of all time. They influenced and shaped the metal music genre with their heavy sound and riffs. However, their journey in the music industry didn’t last long enough for most of the metalheads.
Neither their big fanbase nor the band knew that Pantera will give their last show in Japan. Unfortunately, that show came to be known as the last time when all the band members were together on the stage.
In 2002, the singer Phil Anselmo was involved in many side projects even though he told Pantera that he would take a break for a year. This made the Abbott brothers frustrated, which lead to their disbandment in 2003.
Nevertheless, the last show of Pantera was terrific because there was a stunning detail about their performance. The band guested Slayer’s Kerry King to play ‘Fucking Hostile’on the stage, which made all the fans crazy.
After the guest appearance of Kerry King, the band ended the show by playing ‘This Love’ and ‘Cowboys From Hell.’ However, they did an encore as the other bands do and played ‘Walk’ with Evan Seinfield.
Here is how Pantera celebrated the anniversary of their last show via Instagram:
“Where were you on August 26, 2001? Pantera were performing their last show ever at Beast Feast in Japan. 20 years ago today.”
You can check out the performance below.

In the face of mounting opposition, Andrew Lansley was forced to make a Commons statement to defend aspects of the Health and Social Care Bill, which completed its committee stage last week.
He said the Government would take the opportunity of a "natural break" in the passage of the Bill to "pause, listen and engage" over the concerns and bring forward amendments to "improve the plans further".
But he said the NHS needed to change although private providers would not be allowed to exploit the new system and "cherry-pick" the most profitable services - a criticism highlighted by opponents of the Health and Social Care Bill.
The Bill completed its committee stage last Thursday but the speed with which it had progressed through Parliament had caused concern among doctors, nurses and patients, Mr Lansley said.
He did not say how long the delay would last but said the Government would listen to concerns.
Mr Lansley told the Commons: "We recognise that this speed of progress has brought with it some substantive concerns. Some of those concerns are misplaced or based on misrepresentations but we recognise that some are genuine.
"We want to continue to listen to, engage with and learn from experts, patients and frontline staff within the NHS and beyond and to respond accordingly.
"I can therefore tell the House that we propose to take the opportunity to take a natural break in the passage of the Bill - to pause, to listen and to engage with all those who want the NHS to succeed and to subsequently bring forward amendments to improve the plans further in the normal way.
Earlier, Labour leader Ed Miliband branded the Government's reform plans "extremely dangerous" and called on the Prime Minister to think again about his "reckless" proposals. He said in a speech in London that changes had to be made in the running of the NHS - but not the way the Government was planning.

As many people are finding out, online poker has several advantages over its brick-and-mortar counterpart. While there are still a few states that don’t regulate online poker, more are looking to get in on the action. The state of Nevada, for example, has already regulated online poker, and New Jersey and Delaware are likely to follow suit in the near future. But how will all this affect online poker? What can you expect in the coming years?
The main reason why online poker is so popular is that the US has legalized it. This means that most US states have legalized online poker, and a number of other states are considering it. This makes it easy for players to play poker online if they are located in one of these states. There are several reasons why online poker is legal in the US, but most people choose it because it is convenient. And the best part is, online poker sites don’t have to worry about paying taxes!
Once you’ve decided to play online, you need to register with an online poker network. Some states have several different poker operators. Choose one based on your criteria and start playing. Make sure you’re a good player before making a deposit. If you’re a good player, some networks have better players than others. This means the games can be tougher for you to win. However, if you aren’t a top-tier player, you can still play and earn money.
Some people say that online poker is better than live games. However, they don’t have the same rewards. For example, players who win 5% of their games in live games would barely break even after tipping the dealers. Online poker rooms pay their players by giving away large chunks of rake, as well as loyalty rewards and promotions. Compared to the high costs associated with live poker, online poker sites are much more affordable. You can play hundreds of games, while still enjoying the social interaction of real players.
Fortunately, despite the legal challenges that the industry has faced, the US market for online poker is trending upwards. Earlier this year, the US Department of Justice reversed a 2011 opinion on the Wire Act. The New Hampshire Lottery Commission, which had filed a lawsuit against online poker websites, received a favorable ruling from the US District Court. However, it is currently in the appeals process. The final decision will probably take years.
Bovada Poker is a great option if you’re looking for real money online poker in the United States. Their site offers quality games and fast payouts, making it an excellent choice for players in this country. Bovada also has a helpful guide to help you get started and play online poker. Using this tool can save you a lot of time and money. It can also help you get the most out of your online poker experience.

In Costa Rica, Easter Holy Week isn’t complete without the chiverre (Cucurbita ficifolia), a type of local squash that is eaten during Semana Santa.
Chiverres are traditionally harvested a few weeks before Semana Santa so that Ticos can make sweet preserves or jam in time for the holidays. The recipe includes tapa de dulce (a traditional unrefined sugar), cinnamon and cloves. Chiverres also are used to make empanadas, or are spread on ice cream or cookies.
Feria del Chiverre
Since 2003, the village of Laguna de Zarcero, in Alajuela province northwest of San José, has paid tribute to the chiverre with an annual festival. Zarcero’s soil and climate have helped the area become the biggest producer of chiverres in the country. This year, the fair was held March 23-25.
Hundreds of families attended the event, which also featured cotton candy, churros (a delicious fried-dough pastry) and other sweets, and a cattle exhibition.
The fair is organized each year by the Asociación de Desarrollo Integral de Laguna de Álfaro Ruíz.

So, once again a new Turtles movie is due to be released in 2014 starring Megan Fox and Alan Ritchson (the 5th movie). This is exciting for Turtle fans like myself. Everyone loves the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. And just for the people who may not know about them, I’ll give a little history.
It all started in 1984 as an American comic by Mirage studios when a sketch was made by Kevin Eastman and together with his friend Peter Laird they went on to create a legendary comic series about 4 Turtles trained in Ninjitsu by their Rat mentor and sensei Splinter. Living in the sewers of Newyork city they would battle criminals and aliens but especially the baddie Shredder.
The comic was a huge success and in 1987 the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle TV series was born and along with the comics, action figure merchandise and other products, became pop culture legends. Because of this too for all crazy turtle fans, you can get amazing Halloween costumes for kids, ladies and men, check them out here on our site, they are excellent looking.
Who Were The Famous Four?
Raphael – He wears the red mask, is the bad boy of the group and his weapons of choice is a pair of Sai. He is Fierce, sarcastic and often delivers deadpan humor. On our site you will find this costume available for young children, aswell as older children and amazing costumes for ladies.
Michelangelo – He’s the sort of hippish easy going free spirited one, wears an orange mask and his weapon are nunchaku. Being the youngest, he is the most adventurous and always provides great comic relief.
Donatello – The brains of the bunch. A scientist, inventor and engineer he wears a purple mask and his weapon is the Bo staff. He is the least violent of the lot and prefers to use his brain.
Leonardo – He is the most courageous and the leader, wears the blue mask and his weapons are a pair of katana. He is the oldest and the most skilled fighter of the bunch. On our site you will find this costume available for young children, aswell as older children and amazing costumes for ladies.
Other Important Characters!
Splinter – Their adoptive father and sensei, he is a Japanese mutant rat who knows the way of Ninjitsu.
April O’Neill – She is a great friend to the turtles. She is a former Lab assistant and in the later series, a new reporter.
Casey Jones – The love interest of April, a vigilante and close Allie of the turtles. He fights crime with sports goods while wearing a hockey mask to protect his identity.
Shredder – Also known as Oroku Saki, he is a villainous Ninjitsu master and the leader of the Foot clan. He is the archenemy of Splinter and the Turtles.
As well as tons of great comics, there was the TV cartoon series from 1987-1996 which was a global success. From 1997-1998 there was the live action series “Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation” but it was canceled after only one season.
A second Animated series 2003-2009 was a more edgier darker series to previous and in 2011 a new CGI version of this franchise came out through Nickelodeon . We here at Halloween All Year Round are very excited about this movie and myself probably the most excited since I’m a huge fan. There isn’t a video available yet but as soon as one comes I’ll be posting so stay tuned. Below is a video of the cast for the new movie. Leave a comment on your thoughts below.

The first and most important profile (in our opinion) is the Health-Guard – when being used with our LM Profiles application, Health-Guard eliminates the harmful Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) and reduces the negative Blue Light which affects our eyes and body. Since it’s custom tailored for every panel, it manages to keep the colors perceptually accurate (they may seem strange at first but after a few minutes our brain will start recognizing them as accurate ones – that’s how Health-Guard differs from alternatives like f.lux).
Now the profile has a higher color temperature which makes is suitable for working through the whole day (not only at night) and simulates paper so the pressure on the eyes is greatly reduced.
Pro Tip: As the Health-Guard profile simulates paper and has as accurate as possible colors, it could be a great tool for prepress designers!

Design and Gaming
The second profile type is Design and Gaming – it combines our previous “Web Design” and “Gaming and Movie Nights” profiles in one, so it’s aimed at designers who work with colors professionally, and for games and movies as well (or maybe you’re a designer who likes to relax with some games or movies from time to time?).
“Design and Gaming” takes display panels to their limits, making them as accurate as possible in the sRGB IEC61966-2-1 standard for Web and HDTV, at white point D65.
Left: No Profile | Drag the slider to see the difference | Right: Design & Gaming Profile
Just as our previous Gaming profile, this one also regulates the first steps out of black so you can have even faster reflexes when playing in dark virtual environments…or just see everything in the darkest scenes in movies.
Left: No Profile | Drag the slider to see the difference | Right: Design & Gaming Profile
The third profile is Office Work and it should be used mostly by users who spend most of the time looking at pieces of text, tables or just surfing.
Office Work aims to deliver better distinctness and clarity by keeping a flat gamma curve (2.20), native color temperature and perceptually accurate colors.

Dell Inspiron 15 7559 Notebook Review
The conveniently sized touchpad of the Inspiron 7559 is implemented as a ClickPad without dedicated mouse buttons. We really like the slightly roughened surface that is surrounded by a red stripe. Neither the gliding capabilities, nor the feedback give any cause for criticism. Unfortunately, the lower part of the surface was not sitting perfectly on the button mechanics, so even slight pressure often resulted in a clattering.
However, there is no criticism for the response and the precision. Even quick swipe gestures were perfectly executed, and drag-&-drop via double tap was no problem. Subjectively, the two mouse button replacements provide a well-adjusted feedback with a firm pressure point and a clearly perceptible acoustic feedback. The limited functionality is rather disappointing (see picture). The input will actually recognize only two fingers at the same time, so you can hardly use any gestures. Even in the 400 Euros (~$424) price range most notebooks offer more in this respect.
Dell has provided us with a review sample of the Inspiron 7559 with a U.S. keyboard layout. Large hands might have some problems with the narrow number pad. Visually, the first impression of the well-integrated keyboard is good. Unfortunately, it can be easily dented in the center, which should not happen especially when you consider the price of the notebook.
The spongy typing experience is less inspiring. You can feel the pressure point, but it could have been more defined, in combination with the soft stroke. Positive aspects of the keyboard are the subtle and even illumination, even though there is just one setting, the flat and anti-slippery keys with a clear lettering, the status LEDs for some keys as well as the very restrained noise development of the large keys.

Overall its a great laptop. You will find many reviews online. I bought it from Paytm If you buy this laptop, make sure you update the BIOS, Intel HD driver, WiFi driver (from Intel) & Audio driver. The speakers are okay, not great. I expected better quality sound from a 2.1 system. It's loud, no worries there. Also another important thing is that in India the i5 version doesn't have a backlit keyboard (it's there in the US version)

Before we dig into the system we tested, let’s take discuss where it falls in Dell’s current family of laptops. If you’re looking for the most powerful and stylish of Dell’s offerings, you’re looking for an XPS. Those systems have price tags to match, though, which is why the bulk of Dell’s laptops are part of the Inspiron brand. There are three categories here – 3000, 5000 and 7000 – which hit the value, mid-range and high-end, respectively.

The model we are looking at today is the mainstream Dell Inspiron 15 7559, which goes for $799.99. Dell sees the system as a reasonably-stylish laptop with some gaming chops and easy upgradability, so we’re looking at it from that perspective instead unfairly comparing it to rigs that have an insurmountable hardware advantages. That’s not to say that we won’t include those systems in our comparison charts, of course, but we won’t expect performance from the system that it can’t reasonably provide.
The no-nonsense display on the Inspiron 15 7559 sets the tone for the laptop. The 15.6-inch screen has a typical 1920 x 1080 resolution and lacks touch. There are touch versions of the 7000 series available for people who consider the feature a deal breaker, but those models start at $999.99.
The hardware inside the Inspiron 15 7559 is a little more intriguing. The Core i5-6300HQ Skylake processor isn’t a surprise, but the included Nvidia GeForce GTX 960M GPU means the Inspiron 15 7559 has some game. Laptops in this price range usually rely on integrated graphics, so the Nvidia GPU is a nice touch.
Dell opted for a single-channel 8GB DIMM for the laptop’s system memory, which is good in that it leaves a slot open for easy upgrades, but the single-channel setup also diminishes performance somewhat versus a dual-channel configuration. For storage, Dell chose a 1TB hybrid drive that features an 8GB solid state cache, which strikes us as a good fit for a laptop like the Inspiron 15 7559.
When it comes to connectivity and ports, the Inspiron 15 7559 has a fairly traditional complement with a couple of perks, like PowerShare on one of the three USB 3.0 ports and 802.11ac for the latest wireless networks. Inspiron 3000 laptops (and even some models in the Inspiron 5000 series) are still limping along with 802.11n connectivity. The other ports include an HDMI port (with 4K display support), an SD card reader, an Ethernet port, a Kensington Lock and a mic/headset jack. The laptop doesn’t include an optical drive, but you’re not likely to need it these days anyway.
So, the Inspiron 15 7559’s hardware is decent, if not earth shattering, and the price is attractive for a stylish laptop with discrete graphics. If upgrading key components is as easy as Dell makes it out to be, the Inspiron 15 7559 could be a good investment, providing reasonable performance now and a longer lifespan than a typical laptop. Let’s open it up and find out...

Lent is supposed to be a solemn time of repentance and turning to God. But I believe that from the most profound of solemnities springs the deepest of joys. There is no greater joy than walking in relationship with God, and something which will draw us closer to Him is sacrificing our fleshly nature and denying ourselves for His glory.
There was a man known as Brother Lawrence who lived in France in the mid 1600’s. He was not educated, nor was he particularly clever or talented. Most of his life he worked in the kitchen of a monastery. So why is his name remembered today? It’s because although he lived a simple life he did all his menial tasks faithfully, for the glory of God.
Mankind sees glory as having a big ministry, and doing great things for God. Heaven sees glory as faithfulness to God in the tasks He has given you, even if you’re just a kitchen boy like Brother Lawrence.
For years I wanted to live overseas and do great things. I come from a small town and I just felt so trapped and bored. Then I finally moved overseas and…became a housewife. I became excruciatingly bored as I had expected to become some sort of Mother Teresa. It was through this boring, monotonous time that I began to learn more about God, and in so doing, I learned more about myself.
I kept saying to my husband, “I feel like I’m useless!”
All he would say is, “No, it’s ok.”
Maybe my husband and my family could live without me, but they don’t want to. I didn’t understand why, but it dawned on me that it’s because they love me for who I am, not for what I’m capable of doing.
And oh, how focused I can be on doing.
I must ask myself sometimes, “Why am I worshiping and reading the Bible? Why am I writing and blogging? Is it to give myself a sense of worth and significance? Is it to feed my ego and fickle emotions? Or is it a way to connect to God, like writing a love letter to my husband?”
“DIY” is in my DNA. When I want something, I try to get it done and make it happen myself. But it’s absurd to think I could have control over everything which happens in life. Then, my unfulfilled desires turn into fear, my fear turns into worry and worry turns into depression.
When I’m afraid, my prayer can become a form of worrying. I focus on my issue and forget who God is. I pray,
“God please, please provide for us!”
“God PLEASE don’t let this bad thing happen!”
That’s me focusing on the problem rather than on The Problem Solver. But when my focus shifts onto The Problem Solver, my worry turns into worship and my fear turns into praise; and my own desires conform to God’s desires. God can and will make His desires happen, so once you understand His heart and allow your desires to become His, you will find boundless joy in Him.
This Lent season, I encourage you to repent from trying to hang on to your own feeble desires and trying to make things happen in your own strength. Rejoice in Jesus through whatever pain you are facing!
Taste and See That the Lord Is Good
[a] Of David, when he changed his behavior before Abimelech, so that he drove him out, and he went away.
I will bless the Lord at all times;
his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 My soul makes its boast in the Lord;
let the humble hear and be glad.
3 Oh, magnify the Lord with me,
and let us exalt his name together!
4 I sought the Lord, and he answered me
and delivered me from all my fears.
5 Those who look to him are radiant,
and their faces shall never be ashamed.
6 This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him
and saved him out of all his troubles.
7 The angel of the Lord encamps
around those who fear him, and delivers them.
8 Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good!
Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!
9 Oh, fear the Lord, you his saints,
for those who fear him have no lack!
10 The young lions suffer want and hunger;
but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.
11 Come, O children, listen to me;
I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
12 What man is there who desires life
and loves many days, that he may see good?
13 Keep your tongue from evil
and your lips from speaking deceit.
14 Turn away from evil and do good;
seek peace and pursue it.
15 The eyes of the Lord are toward the righteous
and his ears toward their cry.
16 The face of the Lord is against those who do evil,
to cut off the memory of them from the earth.
17 When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears
and delivers them out of all their troubles.
18 The Lord is near to the brokenhearted
and saves the crushed in spirit.
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous,
but the Lord delivers him out of them all.
20 He keeps all his bones;
not one of them is broken.
21 Affliction will slay the wicked,
and those who hate the righteous will be condemned.
22 The Lord redeems the life of his servants;
none of those who take refuge in him will be condemned.

‘Fog curling around a street lamp’: Hubble’s mesmerizing image of a cosmic keyhole
The Hubble Space Telescope has brought us many images of space, each more mesmerizing than the other. Its latest find is no different: it features a black keyhole in the middle of some pretty intense celestial activity.
A peculiar portrait
"This peculiar portrait from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope showcases NGC 1999, a reflection nebula in the constellation Orion," stated an ESA press release published last Monday.
"NGC 1999 is around 1350 light-years from Earth and lies near to the Orion Nebula, the closest region of massive star formation to Earth. NGC 1999 itself is a relic of recent star formation — it is composed of detritus left over from the formation of a newborn star."
ESA compares the image to "fog curling around a street lamp" and states that reflection nebulae like NGC 1999 only shine because of the light from an embedded source.
"In the case of NGC 1999, this source is the aforementioned newborn star V380 Orionis which is visible at the center of this image. The most notable aspect of NGC 1999's appearance, however, is the conspicuous hole in its center, which resembles an inky-black keyhole of cosmic proportions," the agency explains.
The image is not entirely new. It has been created from archival Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 observations that were collected shortly after Servicing Mission 3A in 1999.
A Bok globule
At first, astronomers speculated that the dark keyhole in NGC 1999 was something called a Bok globule — a dense, cold cloud of gas, molecules, and cosmic dust that blots out background light. Further studies using a collection of telescopes, including ESA's Herschel Space Observatory, revealed that the dark patch is actually an empty region of space whose origins remain unknown.
In April of 2022, Hubble captured a fascinating new image of a galaxy with an active black hole and massive dark dust tendrils.
The spiral galaxy, called NGC 7172, was located roughly 110 million light-years away from Earth in the Piscis Austrinus constellation. The image was a combination of two different captures taken by the Hubble Space Telescope's Advanced Camera for Surveys and Wide Field Camera 3.
In August of 2022, Hubble produced an image of the Orion Nebula, one of the Milky Way's most studied and photographed objects and a nest of material where young stars are being formed. Alnitak, Saif, and Rigel could be seen floating in a large, dense cloud of interstellar dust and gas between the stars.
In September of 2022, the cosmic tool captured two distant spiral galaxies overlapping.
The galaxies named SDSS J115331 and LEDA 2073461 were actually over a billion light-years from Earth. The Hubble Space Telescope view suggested that these two celestial bodies were dipping into each other, perhaps merging, but they were not. The view was an optical illusion, and the galaxies were not interacting with each other at all.
What will Hubble capture next? Only time will tell.
Scientists from Trier University and the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology have reported that grocery-bought tea bags contain enormous amounts of environmental insect DNA.

As we prepare for Gamechangers: Mildly Rude? on 12 June at Queen Elizabeth Hall, we take a look at a few things you might not already now about Handel. Even Baroque superstars have secrets…
1 George Frideric Handel was born in Germany and came to over to England at the request of George I. He then asked to made a British citizen in 1727.
2 His father wanted him to be a lawyer, but the Duke Johann Adolf I convinced him to let Handel take music lessons after seeing him perform.
3 Handel was a big fan of Corelli, they met in Italy and the event was important for the young composer. Handel’s Concerto Grosso in A, Op. 6 No. 11 is directly inspired by Corelli’s Concerto Grosso in D, Op. 6 No. 1.
4 When one of his sopranos refused to sing a piece, he lifted her in the air and threatened to throw her out the window.
5 He was never married, kept his personal life very private and devoted to himself totally to music.
Hear music from Handel and Boyce on 12 June in Gamechangers: Mildly Rude?


"We've got a lot of educating to do about health care reform," Franck said.
Companies that will feel the greatest impact of the "Affordable Care Act" will be those mid-sized ones.
More audits already
Franck said the State of Iowa has already begun to increase the number of audits, at least among local customers. Many of the audit targets have been those who claim a dependent care credit on their taxes.
"They're questioning everything," Franck said. He saw two or three people, dealing with audits, each week over the summer.
Tax changes are hitting parents who are helping their children repay their student loans. In the past, parents who make payments on loans in their child's name were able to claim the interest as a deduction. They can no longer do this.
A major potential tax change, the mortgage interest deduction, is also set to expire at the end of the year. This would be a $40 billion tax increase and would cause further damage to the economy, Franck said.
"If they take that away, that would really kill the real estate market," Franck said.
H&R Block's Tax Institute has prepared quick-reference sheets that summarize tax law changes coming in 2013 and those specifically coming in relation to the "Affordable Care Act." These sheets accompany this article.
With all of the changes taking place, Franck urges people with questions to talk to their tax preparers. As of this writing, no deal had been reached between Congress and the President to address these major tax changes coming in 28 days.
