top 100 songs 1986

1986 extract from the book 'A Concise Guide To Eighties Music'

                    The song of the month for January 1986
         Chain Reaction by Diana Ross (peak chart position: No.1)
The great Diana Ross re-visited the British pop summit for the first time in more than fourteen years with the excellent 'Chain Reaction'. In the intervening decade and a half the talented chanteuse had unleashed a whole host of wondrous love songs and dance tunes for music lovers to feast themselves on, yet it took the likeable 'Chain Reaction' to land the popular lady back on once-familiar territory. 'Chain Reaction' was penned by the Bee Gees who also provided vocals.

                        The song of the month for February 1986
         Eloise by The Damned (peak chart position: No.3)
The Damned sold their punk souls for a slice of pop fame when they abandoned their usual repertoire in favour of an excellent cover version of Barry Ryan's 'Eloise'. The single narrowly missed out on a British Number One, but it was obviously one of the highlights of 1986, albeit from an unlikely source. Quite clearly Rat Scabies and the gang had bills to pay, hence their surprising choice of recording. 'Eloise' had previously climbed to Number 2 back in 1968.

what is pastry

kitchen flavours: Fan Pastry

Fan Pastry? I'm sure most of you must be wondering what is Fan Pastry! It is a Chinese sweet pastry with the a fan-like pattern, that's all! This fan pastry is perfect as a tea-time snack and for breakfast too. I made this as an afternoon snack. It was one of those days, being a holiday and everyone slept in, we came back late from a dinner party the night before, went to bed at 1.30am, woke up late, had our late breakfast and very early lunch, so called "brunch"  and I figured that the family would be hungry when it is tea-time, not that we have tea-time very often! So I made this, since this has been on my mind lately and I have all the ingredients on hand. It was really good and we enjoyed it!

I like the pretty petals, does it look like a fan or a flower? Despite its name "Fan Pastry", I think it looks more like a flower! This recipe uses Red Bean Paste as the filling. You may use Lotus Paste Filling or Mung Bean Paste Filling if you like. Either one, I'm sure it will be just as good!

Ok, Let's do this together :

1. The dough on the left is the Water Dough, on the right is Oil Dough. 

2. Some red bean filling, scaled at 25gm and mould them into rounds for easy wrapping.

Abstract

Studies of doctor-patient communication generally advocate a partnership communication style. However, in Southeast Asian settings, we often see a more one-way style with little input from the patient. We investigated factors underlying the use of a one-way consultation style by doctors in a Southeast Asian setting.

what animal consumes more than it body weight

Study: Chocolate cake with breakfast leads to better weight loss than low carb diet over the long term

This study was in the news today, I just had to post it – because it is very interesting. Food for thought. Cake at breakfast with protein led to greater weight loss, significantly more over the long-term for clinically obese people, in a 32 week study. The difference was not in the short-term, but in the second half of the study; 16 – 32 weeks.

Is it the extra carbs at breakfast? (with the protein.)

Is it a bigger meal to start the day?

Is it being able to have food that is usually denied when on a 'diet'?

Having a treat first thing in the morning leads to less desire for treat food later on?

Having a treat / or is it more carbs with one meal each day leads to greater fat loss in the long run?

Having carbohydrates with breakfast suppressed grehlin far more, is this a key to appetite control and eating less for the rest of the day?

Is this more evidence that having some carbs is better than very low carb?

Top Off Breakfast with — Chocolate Cake?
Tuesday, February 7, 2012

A full breakfast that includes a sweet dessert contributes to weight loss success, say TAU researchers

When it comes to diets, cookies and cake are off the menu. Now, in a surprising discovery, researchers from Tel Aviv University have found that dessert, as part of a balanced 600-calorie breakfast that also includes proteins and carbohydrates, can help dieters to lose more weight and keep it off in the long run.

They key is to indulge in the morning, when the body's metabolism is at its most active and we are better able to work off the extra calories throughout the day, say Prof. Daniela Jakubowicz, Dr. Julio Wainstein and Dr. Mona Boaz of Tel Aviv University's Sackler Faculty of Medicine and the Diabetes Unit at Wolfson Medical Center, and Prof. Oren Froy of Hebrew University Jerusalem.

what do the mine in the tanamine desret

The Tanami Desert, Australia

The Tanami Desert

Size And Location
Climate
Environment
Travel (The Tanami Track)

If you search for information about the Tanami Desert on the internet you find that most websites regurgitate the same - incorrect - information.

The Tanami is called "one of the most isolated and arid places on earth" or something along those lines. - "As far from the beaten track as possible." - "Strictly for experienced four wheel drivers only." This might have been true ten years ago, but it certainly isn't today...

On this page you'll find information on the size, location, climate and environment of the Tanami Desert.

And at the bottom, under the heading "Travel", I also tell you everything you need to know if you want to cross the Tanami Desert along the Tanami Road (more commonly known as the Tanami Track).

This is a trip that anyone with a reasonable measure of common sense and a reliable car (any car!) can do.

By the way, the Stuart Highway also crosses part of the Tanami, and technically the famous Devils Marbles near Tennant Creek are located in the Tanami as well. So are the Murchinson and Davenport Ranges to the east of the highway.

Size And Location

At 184,500 km² (71,235 square miles) the Tanami Desert is Australia's third largest desert.

Those figures are from the Australian Department of Environment and Heritage. The Tanami page of Wikipedia has it at about a quarter of that... (Goes to show that, while certainly a great resource, Wikipedia isn't always a reliable source of information. At least they show the right figures on their "Deserts of Australia" page.)

The Tanami Desert is located north west of Alice Springs, in the Northern Territory of Australia, to the east of the Great Sandy Desert.

Robert Redford: Keystone XL Tar Sands Pipeline: The Facts Deserve Repeating

Joe Nocera's op-ed in the New York Times yesterday deserves a response and a reiteration of the facts surrounding the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline. President Obama rejected the pipeline's permit last month when the GOP, in a political stunt, forced his hand to approve it without even the final route evident.

Let's put the rhetoric aside, and simply focus on the facts. Nocera wants us to believe that approving this pipeline is a matter of national security. He also seems to think that we should all be kicking ourselves because the Canadians are flaunting a tar sands sale trip to China.

Nocera might ask himself how likely this oil is really to go to China from Canada if Keystone XL is not built. He might ask why the oil companies are looking to bring tar sands almost 2000 miles south rather than just send it across British Columbia for export to Asia.

Rainwater Harvesting
BSV, chrismartenson.com
Water is essential to life, for we cannot exist without it. We are running short of fresh, clean water in many parts of the USA. That is also the case in many other countries. Those who live in the northeastern quadrant of the lower 48 states are generally in good shape for now, water-wise, though there may be local issues with clean water in places. But as you travel west of the Mississippi, average annual rainfall drops off sharply, particularly in the desert southwest, which includes portions of the Chihuahua, Sonora, and Mohave Deserts.

The situation is particularly foreboding in the Colorado River Basin. There are more demands for the water than the river can reliably supply. Las Vegas is vulnerable to a water emergency, as are Phoenix and Tucson. Thirsty Los Angeles gets drinking water from far away Northern California via the California Aqueduct. As the podcast from a few weeks ago highlighted, water management and access is becoming an ever-increasing concern for many parts of the country.

Here in Texas, where I live on a ranch, we have been hard-hit by an exceptional drought. Meteorologists forecast a continuation of this drought through next summer – and believe me, last summer was absolutely brutal. Those of us with livestock got hammered, with hay selling for $120 per round bale in my area. Rural water districts imposed severe restrictions, and in some cases outdoor watering was banned entirely. Pastures turned to dirt from lack of rain. Subsurface moisture disappeared. Crops withered.

3 Important Symptoms of High Blood Pressure

What are the most common symptoms of high blood pressure? This can be hard to pin down because, often, there aren't any real early symptoms of this problem. This is why your doctors usually recommend that you check your blood pressure often, especially if you are older than forty. Unfortunately, most of the time, high blood pressure doesn't have any warning signs or major symptoms like the ones we will talk about in this article. The method you use to treat your high blood pressure will be based upon not just the severity of your condition but the rest of your medical history as well.

Hoping Diesels Will Make a Big Push Soon? Don't Count on It

Posted by Mark Williams | January 31, 2012

It seems like the timing is perfect. U.S. automakers are being pushed by state and federal regulations to increase their corporate average fuel economy (CAFE), and their marketing departments are falling all over themselves trying to prove their cars and trucks are saving the country from spending more on foreign oil, as both gas and diesel engine technologies seem to be advancing by leaps and bounds. 

So why don't we see more cars and trucks with new diesel engines or hear about them coming to market anytime soon? Sure, heavy-duty work trucks will continue to sell record numbers of bigger turbo-diesel engines, but nowhere else do we see that kind of interest. 

who invented podcasts

Davos Newbies » Blog Archive » Who invented podcasting?

Tom Friedman really needs to check his facts.

Here's an excerpt from today's Financial Times:

This month, for instance, the audio version of The World is Flat became the top-selling podcast album on Apple's iTunes audio downloading site, says the author.

"That got me enormous juice with my teenage daughters. But what's really interesting is that when I started this book in March 2004, podcasting didn't exist.

"And what's even more interesting to me is: who invented podcasting? No­body. It was an application that just emerged from the network."

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

Once upon a time, on a cold winter's day, a queen sat by the window of her castle.

She sat and made clothes for her baby. She wanted to have a little girl.

Sometimes she looked out of the window.

Outside, the snow fell, and it was very cold.

Suddenly, she pricked her finger with her needle, and three drops of red blood fell from it.

'Red is a beautiful color', she thought.

Then she looked at the dark black wood of the trees outside and at the white snow.

'My little girl will be very beautiful,' thought the Queen. 'She will have skin as white as snow, hair as black as those trees and cheeks as red as blood.

Soon the Queen had her baby, a little daughter.

And the little girl had skin as white as snow , hair as black as tree in winter and cheeks as red as blood.

'Oh, dear little child,' said the Queen,'you are very beautiful! I will call you Snow White.'

She loved the little girl very much.

But when Snow White was only two years old, a very sad thing happened.

The Queen was very ill and she died.

After a few years, Snow White's father, the King, married again. His new queen was beautiful, but she was also nasty and unkind.

She thought that she was the most beautiful woman in the country.

'And I will always be the most beautiful woman in the country!'

She said.

The new queen looked at Snow White.

All About Insurance: Smoke (1995)

Costs, Insurability, and underwriting
The insurer (the life insurance company) calculates the policy prices with intent to fund claims to be paid and administrative costs, and to make a profit. The cost of insurance is determined using mortality tables calculated by actuaries. Actuaries are professionals who employ actuarial science, which is based in mathematics (primarily probability and statistics). Mortality tables are statistically-based tables showing expected annual mortality rates. It is possible to derive life expectancy estimates from these mortality assumptions. Such estimates can be important in taxation regulation.

The three main variables in a mortality table have been age, gender, and use of tobacco. More recently in the US, preferred class specific tables were introduced. The mortality tables provide a baseline for the cost of insurance. In practice, these mortality tables are used in conjunction with the health and family history of the individual applying for a policy in order to determine premium and insurability. Mortality tables currently in use by life insurance companies in the United States are individually modified by each company using pooled industry experience studies as a starting point. In the 1980s and 90's the SOA 1975–80 Basic Select & Ultimate tables were the typical reference points, while the 2001 VBT and 2001 CSO tables were published more recently. The newer tables include separate mortality tables for smokers and non-smokers and the CSO tables include separate tables for preferred classes.

Recent US select mortality tables predict that roughly 0.35 in 1,000 non-smoking males aged 25 will die during the first year of coverage after underwriting. Mortality approximately doubles for every extra ten years of age so that the mortality rate in the first year for underwritten non-smoking men is about 2.5 in 1,000 people at age 65. Compare this with the US population male mortality rates of 1.3 per 1,000 at age 25 and 19.

Try an Xbox 360 Softmod, It's Easier Than You Think

It is my advice to anyone with an xbox 360 console that you should be doing as much research as you can about the art of the xbox 360 softmod. Unlike a hardware modification, the softmod leaves your hardware completely untouched and therefore, you run no risk of killing your console. In the past console owners had no choice, there simply weren't any software modification kits or guides.
