You can get the stress out of your life without breaking your budget if you follow a few steps to de-stress for less. Here are some creative ways to relax and be entertained while paying attention to your bottom line. I encourage you to pursue a sustainable lifestyle of balance, because the price we pay for living under constant stress is much too high. In fact, a CNN poll reveals that the number-one reason for stress in most countries is money.
The countries most stressed out by money are Malaysia, China, Singapore, and the United States. The countries least stressed out about money are Russia, France, and Italy. It would be self-defeating to ask you to be less stressed about money and then suggest ways to de-stress that cost a lot of money.
Talk to God. Write out prayers for friends and family.
Eat a sack lunch at a park or somewhere outside.
Take a stroll and stop to smell some roses.
Write in a journal in your backyard or in a garden.
Draw a picture of your house. Or backyard. Or somewhere that makes you happy.
Write out favorite quotes or passages of literature and put it somewhere you will see it.
Call a friend or family member you haven't talked to in a while.
I know you are aware of these simple pleasures, but do you practice them? Intentional breaks from your usual routine can make a huge difference not only in your stress, but in your overall productivity later in the day.
Welcome to Thursday. Did you know there are only 8 days left in February? By now, it seems that most of our New Year's resolutions are either given up on, pushed to the side for a little while, or lost a little bit of steam along the way.
It is never too late to reevaluate our resolutions and start over. We never need to wait until the next January 1st to get our finances under control. When we fall off the wagon, it is best to get up and keep going.
Reread the list above and circle any of the "failure factors" which you believe may be significant influences in your life. Failure needs to be seen as a profound learning opportunity. It's time to stop trying so hard and start training toward a new way of addressing your wealth challenges. Past failures do not need to be repeated.
After you circle the "failure factors" that may apply to your situation, take the time to write three ways you believe you can counter those factors and turn them into successful areas of your life. I believe in the old saying that "people don't plan to fail, they just fail to plan." Having a plan can be over half the battle in discovering ways to be successful in your finances. But implementing that plan is the other half of finding success.

Miss Marryat's Circle
A story from South Australia
By Cheryl Williss
In 1915, the second year of the Great War, Miss Mabel Marryat - granddaughter of South Australia's first colonial chaplain Charles Beaumont Howard - joined the newly formed League of Loyal Women. Mabel became active in the League's emergency corps, 'a band of women who are prepared to give their service in any need that may arise'. It wasn't long before Mabel was appointed Honorary Supervisor of the Red Cross Depot at the Keswick Military Hospital: No. 7 AGH. Soon after the war, the hospital was taken over by the Repatriation Department and renamed RGH Keswick. Here Mabel stayed for 30 years.
This book explores three generations of Mabel's family. Their journey threads the narrative, giving voice to the women of South Australia's first 100 years of European settlement and opportunity to reflect on the changing position of women in South Australian society. But the spotlight shines on Mabel. Her long and devoted community service - particularly to her 'Diggers' - was extraordinary.
Mabel was one of many. This story is for the women of South Australia past, present and future - women just like Mabel - who, quietly, do the extraordinary.

Theosophy in Australia 1879-1939
By Jill Roe
Absorbing and fascinating, abounding with characters larger than life, this book traces the history of theosophy in Australia from the 1870s through its heyday in the 1920s (when it became increasingly preoccupied with the coming World Teacher) to its relatively sharp decline into obscurity in the late 1930s.
Jill Roe (1940-2017) is one of Australia's finest historians, and Beyond Belief is considered among her best work. First published in 1986 in a small print-run, Beyond Belief is a hidden gem of Australian history that we are proud to be bringing to a broader audience.

Adelaide's statues and monuments
By Simon Cameron
<="" img="" />New edition, revised and updated
Statues and monuments fill streets and museums all over the world. Every monument tells a tale, not only of its subject, but of the society that erects it. Adelaide's founders cherished the uniqueness of the city's parks and boulevards and filled them with noble statues. Many of these masterpieces still stand tall and hold an important legacy from the past. In Silent Witnesses, Simon Cameron tells the stories behind 36 of Adelaide's best-loved statues and monuments - tales of humanity, heroism, philanthropy and tragedy.
Images of the Interior
Seven Central Australian photographers
During the half-century from the 1890s to the 1940s, the theme of the 'bush' emerged as a formative element in a new Australian identity. Assumptions about the Central Australian frontier and its people - black and white - then hardened into stereotypes that still affect our perceptions of this country.
The photographs in this book, from the rich collections of the South Australian Museum, take us behind those stereotypes, to the reality of the frontier itself. The photographers were seven remarkable men whose vocations took them into the heart of Central Australia, long before tourism and colour photography transformed our view of the outback.
The photographers are: Francis J. Gillen, Captain Samuel Albert White, George Aiston, Ernest Eugene Kramer, Cecil John Hackett, William Delano Walker, and Rex Battarbee.
The Heritage of Namatjira
The watercolourists of Central Australia
Edited by Jane Hardy, J.V.S. Megaw and M. Ruth Megaw
The Heritage of Namatjira is the first comprehensive survey of the massive output of watercolours by the Aranda (Arrernte) artists of Central Australia. Having as its genesis the first attempts in 1934 of Albert Namatjira to follow the example of European painters, notably the Victorian-born Rex Battarbee, the tradition of watercolour painting is still being maintained by the descendants of Albert and his contemporaries.
Twelve contributors - anthropologists, historians, art critics and collectors - review the history and stylistic development of the Hermannsburg watercolourists since the Finke River Mission's establishment in 1877, against a background of upheaval in Western Aranda culture. They chronicle the changing critical attitudes to the watercolours and their fluctuating fortunes in the art market, and assess the present role of the paintings within contemporary Aboriginal society.
With its wealth of illustrations (many previously unpublished), biographical and bibliographical information, The Heritage of Namatjira, which has been prepared with the full cooperation of the Aboriginal artists and communities concerned, will remain as a lasting tribute to more than a century of Western Aranda art and tradition.

In statement to Trump, N.J. mobilizing for Women's March on Washington
Updated Jan 16, 2019; Posted Dec 11, 2016
Gallery: Women's March on Washington
By Mark Mueller | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com
Just one bus.
Jessi Gottlieb Empestan believed that if she could fill one bus with people from her community to attend the Women's March on Washington next month, she would be doing her part to challenge the tone and rhetoric she said she found so abhorrent during the presidential campaign.
As a Jew and as a woman, as the mother of two ethnically mixed children, as the wife of an immigrant from the Philippines, Empestan said she was appalled by many of President-elect Donald Trump's comments and policy positions on race, gender, religion and immigration.
So she texted a few of her neighbors in South Orange. She put her plan on Facebook.
She filled a bus within hours.
Then another. And another.
Jessi Gottlieb Empestan, 40, says she was moved to organize on behalf of the Women's March on Washington because of the rhetoric she heard during the presidential campaign. (Mark Mueller | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com)
Weeks later, Empestan, working with equally motivated women in her area, says she has filled 14 buses and counting from South Orange and Maplewood. With 54 seats each, those coaches alone are expected to ferry 756 people to the Jan. 21 march in Washington D.C.
Since the election, Empestan's experience hasn't been unusual.
Viewing the march as a chance to project both unity and dissatisfaction after a year of vitriol and polarization, grassroots organizers across New Jersey and the nation are rallying women -- and in many cases men -- to descend on the capital the day after Trump's inauguration.
Some 140,000 people have said on the official Women's March on Washington Facebook page they plan to make the trip. An additional 229,000 said they were interested in attending.
If those numbers bear out or grow, it would be among the largest demonstrations in Washington in several years.
A satellite rally has been planned for the same day at the Statehouse in Trenton to accommodate those unable to travel to Washington. Other satellite rallies are planned around the country.
Empestan, 40, a corporate attorney, said she felt compelled to act after looking to her own family.
Her son by adoption is African-American and Hispanic. Her daughter is Jewish and Filipino.
"My daughter is 5, and she asks a lot of questions about what she hears at school and on the playground," Empestan said. "And she's afraid that the president of the United States is going to hurt her."
Empestan also considered the sweep of history, wondering about those who did not speak up for civil rights in the Jim Crow era or who stood by while Jews were killed during the Holocaust.
While not comparing the president-elect to Hitler, she said the racial animus stirred by Trump, with his references to Mexicans as rapists and his proposal to ban some Muslim immigrants, mirrored the rhetoric that gave rise to the Nazi party in Germany.
"I couldn't stand by to let history judge me about not speaking up," Empestan said. "I'm hearing from friends across the country who are also arranging a way to travel and finding a way to stand up and say in the face of this much darkness, we are going to light as many candles as possible."
New Jersey's transportation coordinator, Felicity Crew, said organizers are trying to spread the word the march is open to all, including Republicans who voted for Trump.
"It's not just a march for women," said Crew, 35, also of South Orange. "There are definitely men going. People of all gender identities are welcome. People from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome. It's about positivity, not negativity. It's very specifically not an anti-Trump rally."
By late last week, an estimated 150 buses had already sold out in New Jersey, while others were still being filled, said Phyllis Salowe-Kaye, executive director of New Jersey Citizen Action, one of the sponsoring groups.
Departure points span the state, from Bergen to Cape May counties.
Salowe-Kaye said the election has inspired a wave of activism by people not just interested in the march, but who want to get involved in health care and environmental initiatives and who want to donate to causes.
"I've been with Citizen Action for 30 years -- I'm going to turn 70 very shortly -- and I've been through a bunch of presidents," Salowe-Kaye said. "I have never seen a response like what we're getting."
The march, initially a scattershot effort that attracted followers through thousands of Facebook posts in the election's immediate aftermath, has become more organized in recent weeks with the introduction of three co-chairs, all veteran activists who have experience planning movements.
Among the challenges, the co-chairs have worked to blunt an early criticism of the rally: the appearance that it was mainly being organized by white women affiliated with the Democratic Party.
Tamika D. Mallory, national organizer for the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington in 2013, is an African-American civil rights leader. Carmen Perez, who is Hispanic, has been a critic of mass incarceration and an advocate for gender equality. And Linda Sarsour, a Brooklyn-born Muslim of Palestinian descent, is a nationally known community organizer and civil rights activist.
The three join Bob Bland, a white woman and business executive from Manhattan, as the event's top planners.
The group's mission statement champions human rights and diversity, saying the aim is to "show our presence in numbers too great to ignore."
"The Women's March on Washington will send a bold message to our new administration on their first day in office, and to the world that women's rights are human rights," the statement reads. "We stand together, recognizing that defending the most marginalized among us is defending all of us."
The organizer had hoped to begin the march at the Lincoln Memorial -- an iconic location that has been host to some of the nation's largest demonstrations -- before setting off for the White House.
That plan changed Thursday, when the National Park Service, acting on behalf of the Presidential Inauguration Committee, denied the group's request to gather at the memorial, citing inaugural activities that had already been planned.
The march is now expected to start in front of the Capitol building, at Independence Avenue and Third Street SW.
For those interested in finding transportation from New Jersey to Washington, organizers have created an online listing of buses and county coordinators. The document also is linked to the New Jersey Facebook page for the Women's March on Washington.
Additional information about the event can be found on the national group's Facebook page and on its website, womensmarch.com.
The satellite rally, known as the March on New Jersey, is scheduled for 10 a.m. at the Statehouse. A Facebook page about the march also has been created.

Detective Games
It would have been nearly impossible to compile this list just a few years ago, because the entire concept of a detective game had yet to take hold in mainstream culture. There were some notable exceptions, but the closest you could get was an adventure or puzzle game with a detective-y theme, such as Broken Sword or Professor Layton, which were both released in 2012.
Detective games, on the other hand, have developed into their own subgenre over the last decade, as various titles have experimented with new ideas and systems aimed at creating immersive experiences centred on sleuthing. This new breed of detective games is specifically about asking the right questions, seeking out evidence, and, most importantly, piecing together the clues on your own to come up with your own conclusions.
Defining Crimes and Punishments
Despite the fact that Frogwares has been creating Sherlock Holmes games for at least a decade, the vast majority of them have been far too clumsy and idiosyncratic to fully exploit the premise. Crimes & Punishments is an exception to this rule, as it is a superb sequence of Victorian mysteries that require genuine deduction to solve.
Crimes & Punishments represents a significant advancement over previous Sherlock Holmes games in that it allows you to identify clues and piece them together yourself. If you think of Holmes' own mind as a pinboard, you can connect different pieces of the puzzle and follow the logical conclusions that arise as a result. It's important to note, however, that those conclusions are not always correct, and you shouldn't rely on Holmes to do all of the legwork for you.
Crimes & Punishments is a fantastic place to begin your sleuthing adventures, thanks to the combination of a moody and atmospheric Victorian London and some excellent writing. You should avoid the sequel, The Devil's Daughter, which wasn't so much a step back as it was a somersault off a precipice of mediocrity.
Discworld Noir is a fictionalised version of the fictional world of Discworld.
Lewton's trenchcoat is yours in Discworld Noir, a detective game set in Terry Pratchett's inimitable comic fantasy world. The game puts you in the shoes of Lewton, the Discworld's first private detective. Initiated by a mysterious woman who goes by the name of Carlotta, Lewton embarks on a search for her long-missing ex-lover Mundy. Nevertheless, in true noir fashion, what appears to be a straightforward case quickly escalates into something much larger, and potentially more dangerous.
As much as Discworld Noir looks like a fantasy Grim Fandango thanks to its blocky 3D graphics and fixed camera angles, the game is a departure from the obscure puzzles of traditional adventure games in favour of a more direct focus on the act of sleuthing. It's about having pointed conversations with shifty characters while a soft jazz soundtrack plays in the background, all draped in the rain-slick stonework and wry humour of Pratchett's Ankh-Morpork. Discworld Noir is a unique gaming oddity that is still very much worth playing today because it is witty, clever, and thoroughly entertaining.

The most spectacular cutting edge technique of this application is the open architecture client which enables the software to dynamically update on demand, without requiring modification of the source code & Apple's update process. What that means is that we can easily & quickly support most of the models if the IP cams meet our functional requirements right after some tests. Thus, our team made the new cameras possible to be added right after tapping a "reload" button.
Pinch to digital zoom option allows the user to zoom into any part of the screen of what the camera currently displays. Although the camera can move around to zoom in, there are tight corners that you cannot zoom in with just the camera's turning points. It's possible to zoom in digitally to any part of the display screen that the user desires. Do pinch to zoom then simply press and navigate the spot you wish to zoom in.
While viewing a camera, you can have the ability to easily and fast navigate back and forth to next and previous cameras in swipe manners with the variety of portrait and landscape modes.
Record video and/or take snapshots remotely saved the images to local photo gallery on your device, or share via email, Facebook and/or Twitter.
Simultaneously continuous capturing both videos and images may cause increased video frame and audio delays.
Watch this short video to get a better understanding of what Multiview is all about.
"This is an excellent app far better than any other IP cam app I saw so far.
I am viewing 6 different IP cameras: 2 Axis, 2 Panasonic, Dlink, Linksys from two locations, my home and office. I have a problem with one of models at first, I emailed support team and they asked me to tap the reload button, then fixed in a minute. Dev & support guys were so awesome!"

Like most people, your natural instinct is probably to help others when you can. But sometimes, you just need to say "no." Whether you're declining an invitation to a party or turning down a new project at work, you can say no while still being respectful. Give yourself some ground rules and be thoughtful in your response. If you feel it's necessary, you can also provide a reason for your answer. Whatever the situation, be clear, polite, and firm when saying no.
Give yourself rules about how much you can do. Your impulse might be to say "yes" to everything. This can result in you becoming exhausted, overbooked, and stressed out. Instead of defaulting to "yes," be prepared to say "no." You can do this by creating a structure for how you spend your time.
Maybe you are cranky if you go out more than two evenings in one week. If this is the case, create a rule for yourself that two nights is your limit. If someone asks you to do something after your limit is reached, you'll feel justified saying no.
You can also apply this to other situations. For example, agree to only participating in one fundraiser a semester at your child's school.
Set a limit of meeting someone for lunch only one day during the workweek.
Try to balance your schedule. On days when you have a lot of work responsibilities, schedule some time for self-care when you come home.
Schedule your time carefully. Account for all of your activities. For example, if you plan to grocery shop on Saturday morning, mark it on your calendar. That way, if someone asks you to fill in as soccer coach on Saturday morning you can legitimately say that you already have something on your calendar.
You can even schedule things like alone time for yourself. This method can help you make sure that you get everything done that you need (or want) to do.
Of course, if something important comes up, you can always be flexible and make an exception. For example, if you need to visit the dentist, you might have to cancel your relaxing Saturday morning.
Stick to your priorities. You can't do everything, so it is important to be able to give a respectful "no." Write down your priorities each day, and commit to getting them done. If someone asks you to do something not in line with those goals, you can say no.
Ask yourself if you want to accept. Take a moment to think before you respond to an invitation. You don't have to accept every offer that you receive. If you try to stick to things that you actually want to do, you will likely feel happier and more relaxed.
If an acquaintance asks you to join their spin class and you're more of a yoga person, don't feel bad about declining. You can ask them if they'd like to join you in your class!
You don't have to say yes every time someone asks you on a date. Even if you're in a relationship, you still need some alone time. You can say, "Thanks for asking, but I really just feel like staying home alone." If your partner pressures you, you may want to reassess your relationship.
Of course, you will sometimes have to do things that you don't feel like doing. But don't feel like you have to attend every work happy hour just to be polite.
Give yourself some time before you answer. It can sometimes take a few hours or even a day to think about an invitation. Take some time so you can determine if it fits your schedule and priorities.
Focus on the benefits of saying no. It's normal to feel guilty for turning someone down. To keep yourself from feeling this way, try to remind yourself of the positive aspects of saying no. For example, maybe you'll feel much more rested if you turn down an invite to a party. Or maybe you can focus on a major project at work if you turn down a smaller, less important opportunity.
Keep your explanation simple. You have the option of not giving a reason or excuse for saying no. Remember, it is your right to decline to do things, and you don't own anyone an explanation. You can simply respond, "no," but if you feel like adding more, you can still be respectful while keeping it simple.
If someone asks if they can buy you a drink, feel free to just say, "No, thanks."
Think before you speak. If you say no immediately, it might seem like you didn't even consider the request. In order to be respectful, take a moment to think about your answer--even if you already know what it is going to be. Take a pause, and then kindly say no.
Try counting slowly to three before responding. This way, you'll seem to be considering the request.
Make a positive statement. A respectful response is not one that sounds overly negative. When turning someone down, find a way to inject a positive attitude into your words. It also helps if you use a friendly tone of voice!
Give a clear answer. Saying no respectfully dictates that your be honest and direct. Do not give people false hope that you will be able to fulfill their request. If you can't help, say so.
If someone is asking you on a date and you don't want to go, make that clear. You can say, "I'm sorry, but I just don't feel a connection. I'm going to have to turn down your offer."
Offer encouragement. You can kindly turn down requests by including some friendly words. Try building the other person's confidence a bit. You can say, "You've been doing great managing your new team. I'm not available to help you run the meeting, but I know you'll be just fine on your own."
Maybe one of your friends wants to take your relationship to the next level. Try saying, "I know you're an awesome person. That's why I value you as a friend, and I'd love for things to stay that way."
Be careful not to blame others. You can just use them to explain your prior commitments.
Have a reason ready. If you want to say no but you can't think of a reason that won't hurt someone's feelings, trying have an excuse ready. You don't need to lie or think of an elaborate story. It's perfectly valid to say something generic like, "I have another commitment."
Maybe the person you're dating expects you to attend all of their work functions with them. It is okay to say, "I'm sorry, I have my own thing that night. But let's have dinner this weekend!" If your partner doesn't respect your boundaries, you'll need to have a talk with them about your needs.
How do I say no to my boyfriend when he wants something more while we're kissing?
First, I would try talking to him in a respectful manner. Let him know that while you like him a lot and find him attractive, you're not ready to go beyond kissing. If he doesn't respect that, dump him immediately and find someone who will.
How can I say no to a purchase?
You can say that you are sorry, but that you are not interesteted in purchasing the item at the moment. It is best to be honest and concise.
How do I say no to a family member because I don't believe in the principles of the thing I am being asked to do?
Start by asking them about the principles of the thing you're doing so you can gauge their stance and help them understand yours better. Explain to them why you don't agree with their request and why you won't comply with it. Don't just say no -- fully explain your reasoning and be prepared to defend it.
How do I say no to a girl?
Remember that girls are just like everyone else. If you're talking about a girl asking for a date, you could simply say "Thanks for the offer. You're really nice, but I think of you as a friend, not a girlfriend. I hope this doesn't ruin our friendship." This typically works well.
Family want to visit from america because its cheap at the moment. We are not close to them and dread the whole thing. We are in our seventies and are unwell. What can we do?
Talk to them about your reservations. Tell them you aren't well and a visit would add undo stress. If it is their assumption that you would host them, by letting them stay in your place, be fed and entertained by you, why not ask them to book into a hotel. This way they can come on short visits when you feel you have the energy and time. Set clear boundaries, speak of expectations and make sure you feel comfortable.
My sister always stays with me when she is on holidays. How can I say no next time she asks?
Why? If you just need some alone time, tell her exactly that. If you are doing something else, say you already have plans. If you just don't want her around, tell her to find a hotel.
How do I say no to a neighbor who wants me to drive them somewhere every day at a time that suits them?
Just say "No, sorry." It's one thing to do an occasional favor, but you can't be expected to do this every day. You don't even need to supply an explanation. If you'd still like to help them out, say something like "I can do it on Wednesday, but that's it," or whatever works for you.
How can I say no, in a kind way?
Say "No" followed by "sorry". No is not rude and it is only rude if the person expected you to do them a favor you said you will or hogging something like the remote from your family or friends. You are justified to say no and explain why, it will never be rude. Just explain why and it won't be rude. The article has many helpful suggestions.
How do I decline a church officer position?
Just say that you are busy or that you don't have the time. Remember, not everyone can work at a church.
I have some issues with my friend, but she needs me to do a favor for her. How can I decline without making her feel bad?
Simply say "Sorry, I can't help you." If she presses you for a reason, use the opportunity to go over your issues with her.
Use a friendly tone of voice. Don't act rude or impatient.
Pause to consider what you want to say.
Don't be pressured into doing something you don't want to do.

Welcome to Day 4 of condiment week! Don't forget to enter in our free give-a-way to win a 12 oz jar of our favorite condiment: PINK SEA SALT! Simply leave a comment on anyone of my recipes between June 4, 2012 to June 8, 2012 (Monday-Friday) and you're entered to win! See full details HERE.
Teriyaki is such an easy sauce to make. There are many different variations but this is simply a basic recipe. We love to make our own because we can control what goes in it! Enjoy!
Combine the 1/4 cup water and 1 & 1/2 Tbsp cornstarch in a small bowl and set aside.
Combine the rest of the ingredients in a sauce pan over medium heat. Heat until sugar is dissolved.
Add the cornstarch mixture to the saucepan and bring to a boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat. You can serve this immediately or keep in an airtight container in the fridge.
For a thicker Teriyaki Sauce start with 1/3 cup water instead of 1/2.
When looking for soy sauces, we highly you look for one that DOES NOT contain artificial colors or flavors, especially caramel coloring (which causes cancer). Natural food stores are a good place to look for a healthier soy sauce. We also recommend you choose a certified organic soy sauce. (One of the major reasons we like certified organic soy sauce is the widespread use of genetic modification in non-organic soybeans. Genetically modified (GM) soybeans have reached 90% market penetration in the U.S. Yikes!) For more info go HERE.
I have also used Liquid Aminos in place of the soy sauce and it worked well.
Perfect! That's good to know. Thanks for sharing that with us!

An integrated refrigeration study was performed on the effects of salting, protein injection and subcooling on the quality, chemical and physical properties of salt and protein injected cod muscles. The study shows that by injecting salt and protein into the muscle, utilization can be improved, drip reduced and the boiling efficiency of the muscle increased. On the other hand, the injection of salt and protein into muscles increases microbial growth and the formation of erratic alkalis, thus shortening the shelf life of the product. However, lowering the storage temperature could inhibit the growth of microorganisms and the formation of erratic alkalis. Decreased storage temperature, however, led to cell damage due to ice formation on the surface regardless of the salinity of the muscle. Therefore, it is not considered desirable to store fresh or lightly salted cod muscle at temperatures below -2 ° C. The effect of rinsing the samples in a brine bath after injection was also investigated. Such rinsing did not significantly affect the water and salinity or efficiency of the samples, but showed a reduction in the formation of erratic bases. It is therefore advisable to rinse fillets in brine after injection to prevent damage to the best extent possible. Sensory evaluation results showed that the properties of the muscle changed significantly with the injection of salt and protein into the muscle, but the injected groups lost their freshness characteristics until the fresh untreated control group.
A combined cooling experiment was performed on the effect of salting, protein injection and superchilling on the quality and physicochemical properties of brine and protein injected cod muscle. The study showed that brine and protein injections lead to increased processing and cooking yield, as well as decreased drip. Injection of salt and proteins increase on the other hand microbiological growth and the formation of volatile nitrogen bases, which in turn leads to shorter shelf life. By lowering the storage temperature this growth of microorganisms and volatile nitrogen bases could be decreased. If the storage temperature is kept too low this on the other hand led to cell damages due to ice crystallization on the muscle surface, independent on the salt content of the muscle. It is therefore not recommended to store fresh and light salted cod at temperatures below -2 ° C. The study also viewed the effect of brining the muscle after brine and protein injection. This brining had no significant effect on the salt or water content of the muscle but decreased the amount of volatile bases. It is therefore recommended that cod muscle is always washed in brine after injection to keep damaging processes at a minimum. Sensory analysis showed a significant difference between the characteristics of brine and protein injected samples to unprocessed cod muscle. The injected groups also lost their freshness characteristics earlier than the unprocessed control group.

Shelf life tests on cod pieces: Effects of supercooling, pickling and gas packaging on the physical and chemical properties of cod muscles

An integrated refrigeration study was carried out on the effect of salting, different packaging methods and salting methods as well as the effect of subcooling on the quality and shelf life of cod muscles. The results show that storage is a more desirable salting method than injection salting from a microbiological point of view and with regard to drip and boiling efficiency. However, if the salinity during storage becomes too high, the muscle will gel. In the experiment, it was not considered to improve the quality of the fish to inject proteins into the muscle in addition to the salt. Microbial growth and the amount of wandering alkali decrease with decreasing temperature, so it is desirable to keep the temperature as low as possible, without the fish freezing. At -4 ° C, the surface of the fish in all groups, regardless of salinity, was frozen and the ice crystal formation increased with storage time. This ice crystal formation took place much more slowly at -2 ° C and is therefore considered a desirable storage temperature for lightly salted cod muscles. Air-packed packaging (MAP) also proved to be a more desirable storage method than foam packaging, as microbial growth and increase in erratic base was slower in the MAP packaging, which led to longer shelf life.
A combined cooling experiment was performed upon the effect of salting, different packaging and salting methods as well as the effect of superchilling on the quality and shelf life of cod muscle. The results show that brining is a better salting method that brine injection in terms of bacterial growth as well as increased yield. On the other hand, if the salt concentration becomes too high, gelation of the muscle proteins begins. The study also showed that injection of proteins along with salt injection did not improve the quality of the muscle. Microflora and the formation of volatile nitrogen bases decreased with lowering temperatures. It is therefore preferred to store fish at as low temperatures as possible, without letting the muscle water freeze. At -4 ° C the water at the muscle surface was frozen in all groups, independent of salt content, and the ice crystallization increased with storage time. This crystallization was much slower at -2 ° C and therefore this temperature is recommended for storage of light salted cod muscle. Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) turned out to be a better packaging method than Styrofoam packaging, since the increase in bacterial growth and volatile nitrogen bases was slower in the MAP. This also lead to increased shelf life.

The aim of these experiments was to evaluate the effect of supercooling, aerated packaging (MAP) and brine on quality changes and shelf life of cod pieces. The effects of gas packaging and different storage temperatures on the growth of several pathogens and pointing organisms were also investigated. The experiment was carried out in October 2006 at Samherji in Dalvík. After storage (0.6 and 2% salt), the fish was trimmed and the neck pieces were packed in standard 3 kg foam packs (air packs) and in air-conditioned packaging. The gas mixture was adjusted to 50% CO2, 5% O2 and 45% N2. Three pieces (350- 550g) were placed in each tray with a drying mat. After packing, the samples were placed in Matís freezer simulators set at 0 ° C, -2 ° C and -4 ° C. The samples were examined over a four-week storage period. Sensory evaluation, microbial counts and chemical measurements were used to assess quality changes and shelf life. Pickled (2% salt) fish were stored shorter than uncooked (0.6% salt). A comparison of the number of micro-organisms the day after packing showed that the pickled fish contained ten times more cold-resistant micro-organisms than the non-pickled ones. According to sensory evaluation, the shelf life of the pickled fish at -2 ° C was 12-15 days in both air- and gas-packed pieces. In the blunt fish, the effects of gas packaging and supercooling were evident. The shelf life of air-packed pieces was about 11 days at 0 ° C and 14-15 days at -2 ° C. The shelf life of gas-packed pieces, on the other hand, was about 15 days at 0 ° C and about 21 days at -2 ° C. Supercooling of fresh uncooked fish products in air-conditioned packaging can therefore significantly increase shelf life. Gas packing significantly reduced the growth rate of pathogens and microorganisms at low temperatures. Salmonella was most affected, then Escherichia coli and Listeria monocytogenes the least. Under air conditions, L. monocytogenes grew at -2 ° C, but E. coli began to multiply at 5 ° C and Salmonella at 10 ° C.
The aim of these experiments was to evaluate the effect of superchilling, modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) and brining on the quality changes and sensory shelf-life of cod loins. The effect of MAP and different storage temperatures on some pathogenic and indicator bacteria was also tested. These experiments were initiated in October 2006 at Samherji, Dalvík. After brining (0.6 and 2% salt) the fish fillets were trimmed, and loins packed on one hand in 3 kg styrofoam boxes (air) and on the other in MA. The gas mixture used was 50% CO2, 5% O2 and 45% N2. Three pieces (350-550 g) were placed in each tray with an absorbent mat. After packaging the samples were placed in 3 coolers at Matís which were adjusted to 0 ° C, -2 ° C and -4 ° C. Samples were examined over a four-week period. Sensory analysis, microbial counts and chemical measurements were used to determine the quality changes and shelf-life. Brined loins had a shorter shelf-life than unbrined (0.6% salt). Comparison on numbers of microorganisms the day after packaging revealed that the brined pieces contained ten times more microbes than the unbrined ones. According to sensory analysis the shelf-life of the brined loins at -2 ° C was 12-15 days for both air- and MA-packed fish. In the unbrined loins the effects of superchilling and MAP were obvious. The shelf-life of air-packed loins was about 11 days at 0 ° C and 14-15 days at -2 ° C. The shelf-life of MA-packed loins was about 15 days at 0 ° C but 21 days at -2 ° C. Superchilling of unbrined fish under MA can therefore increase the keeping quality considerably. MA packaging clearly decreased the growth rate of pathogenic and indicator bacteria at low storage temperatures. Most effects were seen with Salmonella, then Escherichia coli but least with Listeria monocytogenes. In fact, L. monocytogenes could grow at -2 ° C under aerobic conditions, while proliferation of E. coli was first observed at 5 ° C but 10 ° C for Salmonella.

ABSENT FRIENDS: The Genuine Fakes
In 2010 Real Gone gave coverage to a debut album by Swedish power pop sensations, The Genuine Fakes. Like most sites, we found the album – although not perfect – had lots of lovable material and the band's commercial potential was pretty big.
We heard little from them after that. Kool Kat Records issued a hard copy of 'The Striped Album' (previously only a download) and included a bonus disc. Real Gone included a non-album track on our first full length sampler in December 2011. …And then nothing.
What became of the band who gave 2010 it's best cover tune? [The Genuine Fakes' version of Beyonce's 'Irreplaceable' remains one of our favourite tunes ever and can be heard below.] At the end of November 2014, Real Gone caught up with band member Joey Fake to find out where they've been.
"It's been almost 4 years since the release of our self-titled debut album", he told us. "With that album, we wanted to make a statement: we thought "We've done our homework, put in the hard work and you can bet that we can keep these coming…"
Many reviews pointed out the debut album's trademark sound and its many potential hit singles. Approximately six months before the album's release, I started demoing songs for the follow-up without really telling anyone… I figured it'd be good to get a head start since it took about three years to complete the first one!"
So how are things going with regards to the long-awaited second release? Pretty well, it seems.
"Tracking began in May, 2011 and the band has now reached the end of the recording process of the new album. Mixing will begin early next year together with ex-Merrymakers man Anders Hellgren. The new material arguably strives towards a more minimalistic, straight forward and varied approach compared to the incredibly focused debut. It's pretty different in many ways, but it's more of a refinement of our concept than a major step in a different direction. It's still a Genuine Fakes album and we think fans will enjoy it just as much, if not more… An important contributor to the album has been Jon Auer from The Posies, who's been tacking guitars, synthesizers, vocals and weirdness from locations in both the US and France. It started with a guitar solo on one song and developed into involvement in over half of the new songs. Since The Posies' music has been a huge influence, it's obviously been a real priviledge and honor to work with him.
We're also featured on a couple of compilation albums. "A Kool Kat Kristmas, vol.2 [Kool Kat Records] is out now and it contains the song "You Always Come Back Home (For Christmas)". That was a B-side contender from the band's past that we never finished but thought deserved a proper release. At the end of January we're going to have another new song on a compilation that will be announced soon. Also in January we will play our first show in years, staged in Stockholm, Sweden.
"We're looking forward to the release of our new album and more shows, both in Sweden and elsewhere, in 2015!"
Four years in the making, we're certainly looking forward to it and know there are other power pop fans who are too. Until The Genuine Fakes' full-scale return, let's all enjoy that Beyonce cover one more time!
IRREPLACEABLE. by The Genuine Fakes

GM to boost size of IPO by 30%, WSJ reports
Published: Nov 16, 2010 6:21 p.m. ET
SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- General Motors Co. GM, +0.14% will increase the size of its initial public offering by 30% to 478 million shares, the Wall Street Journal reported late Tuesday, citing unidentified people familiar with the matter. The move is a response to stronger-than-expected demand from investors, the newspaper added. If banks underwriting the deal exercise an over-allotment option, the IPO could grow to 550 million shares, bringing the value of the offer to around $18 billion, significantly more than GM and the government had originally expected, the Journal also said. At that level, it would be the second-largest U.S. IPO ever, and the sixth largest globally, the newspaper noted. At the new level, the U.S. government stake in GM would fall to close to 26% from the current 61%, these people said.

UPDATE 2-HSBC opens in Apple's home town, plans 50 new U.S. branches
By Sangameswaran S and Justin George Varghese
(Adds background on U.S. expansion)
June 17 (Reuters) - The U.S. arm of HSBC Holdings Plc announced plans on Monday to expand its branch network by around a quarter as it opened a new location in Apple Inc's home town of Cupertino, California.
The move by Europe's biggest lender by assets comes as it plans a broader strategic shift to try to improve performance in the United States at a time when many lenders are retrenching.
HSBC, which makes more than 80% of its profit in Asia, last month announced plans to boost its Asia retail wealth management staff by about 300 by end of this year.
HSBC Bank USA said it would hire more than 300 employees as part of the expansion of its national retail branch network that would add up to 50 branches in new and existing markets.
"HSBC is optimising its existing network to right-size and grow its business as well as expand its footprint into new and existing markets that provide attractive opportunities to grow its customer base," the London-based bank said.
HSBC has been trying to turn around its U.S. business that has underperformed for years. Part of the plan included a push into the U.S. credit card and personal loans markets, where it faces a battle against heavily entrenched domestic competition.
Its U.S. underperformance is partly a legacy of a disastrous foray into subprime lending in the country when it bought consumer lender Household in 2003.
That meant the bank was heavily exposed to the imploding U.S. subprime mortgage market as the 2007-8 crisis hit, costing it billions of dollars in writedowns and lawsuits and dampening its appetite in the world's biggest economy for a decade.
A settlement with U.S. regulators wiped out almost all of the its profit for the first half of last year in North America, where it is trying to turn around its business.
In May, the bank said the turnaround strategy for its U.S. business was progressing, but the task remained its "most challenging strategic priority".
The company's website says it currently more than 220 U.S. locations, spread across 10 states on the east and west Coasts.
About 40% of the planned new branches would be in low-to-moderate income communities, the bank said, adding that it expected to start openings from the summer.
Shares of the company were up 0.8% at 651 pence. (Reporting by Sangameswaran S in Bengaluru; editing by Patrick Graham and David Evans)

Fikfap APK v1.0.1 Download for Android Latest 2023
FikFap APK
FikFap
2What is Fikfap APK?
3Why Download Fikfap APK?
4What are the best features of Fikfap APK?
5What's New in the Fikfap APK?
Fikfap apk is an adult video app similar to TikTok. TikTok's popularity can be attributed in part to how its content is presented. Its vertical video carousel allows users to spend hours finding the latest Internet trends and memes.
Consider adding pornographic content to this system. This is precisely what FikFap provides. With this app, you may view videos indefinitely, search for trends and categories that interest you, like or comment on them, and follow hashtags based on your preferences.
What is Fikfap APK?
Individuals can use the Fikfap Android app to publish and enjoy pornographic videos without restriction. Many sexual clips are now available for people to watch and save for later use. Only viewers above the age of eighteen are encouraged to use this application owing to the high risk of injury to viewers under the age of eighteen. Furthermore, if someone under the age of 18 downloads this app, they are responsible for it. Because activating the app is only recommended for the elderly.
Fikfap APK is a Korean application that is remarkably comparable to TikTok. TikTok, on the other hand, prefers to limit and prohibit users from sharing specific clips that may violate moral norms. TikTok, on the other hand, prevents the adult tent from being posted.
Why Download Fikfap APK?
Uploading your clips will get you a lot of attention. Creating a login on the app and controlling who sees your graphic videos is perfect. You can share the videos with your friends or anyone else online with the Fikfap apk. They are only a few seconds long. Because these films are graphic, users will not require a third-party app, such as a virtual private network, to watch the pornographic content. Individuals can use this app to share pornographic videos and boost their reputation and popularity.
What are the best features of Fikfap APK?
Earn Fame Simply by Sharing Videos
Yes, you may quickly gain fame by publishing mature videos on Fikfap Apk, and many people will watch your movies and then follow you. This will increase the number of people who follow you, and you will eventually become famous.
Fikfap Apk is an online app that does not function when the user is not connected to the internet. Because this app operates similarly to TikTok and gives users access to a world of pornography even if their government does not support it.
Users will be able to enjoy the latest upgrades because the creators are still working on this app and are constantly updating it. They are testing new versions of the app so that customers can use the best-recommended version. They recently created and published a beta version of the Fikfap Apk for testing.
This is the best feature because it does not force customers to pay anything for the app. Because most apps require money and cash and even ask for payment when providing this type of content.
Using a VPN
Some regions ban this app, and users are unable to view material in their region. So, customers may download the application from our website, run it through a VPN, and have the pleasure of their lives.
Various Categories
To gain access to videos, select from a variety of categories. There are private, public, and even group classifications. Choose one of them and begin watching the content for which you downloaded the app.
Simple Controls and UI
Fikfap has a very user-friendly layout and is extremely safe for any type of user. Users above the age of 18 will have no trouble understanding the controls and user interface. They will quickly become acquainted with this app and its features.
Countless Clips
Several programs limit the number of clips that viewers can watch and prevent them from watching more. However, there are no restrictions on the subject. However, there are no limitations on the participant's capacity to follow the application. Given that this application offers an infinite number of clips.
No Registration and Subscription
The major problem has been resolved. Many consumers will not install an app just because it requires a subscription or registration. They do not want to put their information in this kind of app, thus they do not install them.
Unlimited Videos
Some apps prevent users from watching infinite videos and limit them to a certain number of videos. However, this app places no constraints on the user's ability to follow. Because this app offers the option of watching endless videos. Users are free to watch as many videos as they wish. Explore fresh videos, and the content will never run out.
What's New in the Fikfap APK?
Bug Resolved.
Speed Boosted.
Is Fikfap Apk free to download and Install?
Yes, this application is free, and you can watch all of the videos without paying a dime.
Is it safe to use Fikfap Apk?
This application is safe for user data because it does not require any registration or information to create an account. But I'm not convinced about the safety of the application because it's a third-party application with no privacy policies that will satisfy users.
Without a doubt, Fikfap apk is an app for people over the age of eighteen. Nonetheless, it is freely accessible on the internet. I caution you once more not to install it if you are under the age of eighteen. Furthermore, it is a third-party platform, and I am unsure of its health and reputation. Only the creators are aware of its hidden features. If you don't like the app after installing it on your phone, you can uninstall it. Dozens of different legal and appropriate venues can help you. This review should have answered all of your questions regarding the Fikfap Apk; now download and enjoy this fantastic application for Android and PC.
Finally, I'll conclude my evaluation by stating that it, like many others, is a new online video platform. You have complete control over the situation.

My government name is Vallerie Birdow. I'm 26 years old. I was born in Fort Worth, raised in Cuney, Texas, and went to school k-12 in Palestine, Texas. I graduated from PHS in 2006, then moved to Houston to attend Texas Southern University. I transferred to UT Tyler after my junior year where I'm currently completing the Bachelors of Arts in psychology degree program.
I got into poetry while going out to open mic venues when I was living in Houston. I was intrigued by the energy in the places. It was always calm, yet exciting. I loved watching artists bare their souls before crowds. I started writing as a way to release stress and tension and decided to perform a personal poem one night at an open mic. I got a great response from the audience and they seemed to like it so I started writing more and releasing on stage at whatever open mics I could find. After an open mic performance at Heroes Lounge for the first time, I was asked to be a feature, and that has been my only breakthrough in poetry thus far but I hope to have more.

Due to unforeseen circumstances LeAnne Howe has cancelled her upcoming Dallas appearance. Stay tuned for new dates.
LeAnne will be guest presenter at the Yavneh Academy Arts Day, annually organized by Dr. Tim Cloward.
LeAnne Howe (born in 1951) is an American author and English Department Chair at University of Georgia. An enrolled member of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, Howe's work has been published in a variety of journals and anthologies.

Oregon Team joins the GT Open with two Lamborghini
Oregon Team has made official its debut in the International GT Open in 2022. The well-known Italian squad will enter two Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO2 in the iconic multi-colour livery that is a landmark of the squad based in Cremosano (Lombardy) and led by Jerry Canevisio and Piergiorgio Testa.
Oregon will be the reference team of the Bull in the series, taking the baton from VSR and inheriting race numbers 63 and 19. The objective is to keep the successful form of Lamborghini, whose cars have conquered the GT Open title four times in the last six years.
Team Oregon was formed in 1987 by a group of friends embarking in amateur autocross racing with a Citroën 2CV. Quite rapidly, it evolved towards a professional and successful organization but never lost the "friendly spirit" for which it is still known. After spans with single-seaters and touring cars, Oregon has had a lot of success in Renault mono-brand trophies, clinching one Clio EuroCup, two EuroCup Mégane and one RS01 Trophy titles, before entering ELMS LMP3 and the Lambo SuperTrofeo Europe, which it won in 2021 (picture).
The drivers who achieved that success, Leonardo Pulcini and Kevin Gilardoni, have been already confirmed in the line-up for the 2022 GT Open. The 23-year Italian, a former Euroformula Open champion and GP3 racer, will be in car #63, while the 29-year-old Swiss, who has also shone in rallying, will be at the wheel of car #19. Their respective team mates will be announced in due course.
Team Principal Jerry Canevisio commented: "We are delighted to join the International GT Open, which represents a huge step forward for us, as we are debuting in GT3 racing and representing Lamborghini Squadra Corse, whom we thank for the support and the trust. We come to fight for victory and have the challenging task to do as well as the Lambo teams that have preceded us. The GT Open is also known for its friendly atmosphere and this is key to us that have as a philosophy to bring a smile wherever we race."
