I'm going to keep this post short and sweet. I've had some problems lately in my life, some things private but mainly I've just been so busy with applying to universities, looking for work experience and learning how to drive that I'm absolutely tired at the end of the day with no energy left for thinking up brilliant recipes and taking (quite often at least) brilliant photos of said desserts/pastries/baked stuff.
My blog is important to me. My readers are important to me, every one of you, but when faced with choosing between keeping relationships healthy, keeping my body and my mind healthy as well as having an education & a career later on or having a great, successful blog then I'll always choose the first things.
This is not good bye forever; I'll be back. Better than ever with new energy, new ideas and more knowledge. Keep checking in every now and then…
Bake, eat cakes, play, pet cats, be happy and smile!

Antique gun show in Stamford goes on despite protests
STAMFORD >> The East Coast Fine Arms show opened Saturday, three weeks after a gunman killed 26 at an elementary school in Newtown, a tragedy that has renewed the nation's debate on gun control.
Inside the Stamford Plaza Hotel, antique guns dating back to the 1700s shared space with shotguns, hunting rifles, bowie knives and even Navajo jewelry, laid out on tables by collectors and dealers from Connecticut and surrounding states.
By mid-afternoon, a gathering of about 20 protesters had taken to the sidewalk outside of the hotel, holding signs with anti-gun, particularly anti-assault weapon, slogans.
Jay Mangan, who was running a table at the show, said his main interests in collecting are not primarily with guns, but American Indian relics, nautical items and miniature cannons. He said he thought the protesters outside of the show were "sadly misinformed."
"I believe they're well-intentioned. They're probably parents. It was a horrific thing that happened. There's no way to condone that in any way shape or form, so I don't blame them. But I do believe they're misinformed. They should see what gets sold in there, or bought, whatever. There's no assault weapons. There's hunting shotguns -- there are guns in there $50,000 and up that English gentleman sportsman have been buying for years. So this is probably the wrong show to picket."
Rosemary Jacobsen, a senior at the University of British Columbia who grew up in Darien, was one of the protesters outside the show. She said she was there because America needs to make changes to its gun laws, to prevent mass shootings. She said that while she thought the gun show's proximity to Newtown was insensitive, she was not picketing it because of what was being sold inside.
"This is more about just having venue to voice your opinion, versus this particular gun show," Jacobsen said. "Obviously, I have no problem with antique weapons. And it's America, so guns are a very important part of our culture."
George Ruben of OBI Antique Firearms, located in Oyster Bay, N.Y., manned a table inside with his father, Robert. It's a desire for that connection to American culture that makes Ruben a collector and dealer -- a dealer cut from different cloth, at least when compared to the others in the showroom. Mangan described antique firearm dealing as a domain for the gray-haired; Ruben, who is only 29 years old, wore a Deftones T-shirt and leather jacket.
Ruben said he began collecting at 8 years old. He started with a very specific type of historical memorabilia -- Civil War belt buckles.
"Specifically the oval, Union belt plates," Ruben said. "They say U.S. on them, they're made of brass and they have a lead back. I mean, it's pretty straightforward. It's a belt buckle."
Ruben said he doesn't know how many belt plates he's amassed at this point. His collecting interests, though, have expanded since childhood. He said his collection focuses on American military items, encompassing pieces from the Revolutionary War through the Vietnam War. He collects weaponry, accoutrements, pieces of uniforms and whatever else strikes his fancy, he said. But it all started with belt buckles.
David Kleiner is a collector and dealer who lives in a home near Gettysburg, Pa. He said his house sits "in the shadow of the ridge that Robert E. Lee crossed in July of 1863" on his way to the battle of Gettysburg.
Kleiner's start in collecting is similar to Ruben's. He said he bought "one little, antique handgun " close to 50 years ago. From there, he bought another, and then another. One day, an antique dealer came to him with a silver cup. Kleiner said he bought it -- why, he's still not sure, save a vague sense of intrigue.
Then he started collecting those American silver cups, which spread to an interest in American swords -- swords that American silversmiths crafted and onto which they inscribed their names. At the show, his table was adorned with bowie knives, glittering swords and many-hundred-year-old rifles, their stocks ornately decorated with gold inlay.
Kleiner even had a dagger he said was 3,000 years old, an artifact from the Iron Age civilization of Lorestan, which existed in what is now western Iran. Kleiner said the dagger was likely genuine, though he couldn't say for sure. The attraction to antique collectibles like these, weaponry or otherwise, is threefold, Kleiner said.
"Part of it is the maker: who the maker was, what he did, where he came from. Part of it is the aesthetics of an item, like Kentucky rifles that are gracefully carved," Kleiner said. And, "Part of it is history."
It's the history that draws Ruben to collecting. An antique firearm, he said, is a piece of history you can hold.
"This is what was there. We can all read stories, but this proves them almost -- a little bit. It makes the history more real. It almost wouldn't matter what the item was, but guns are better able to survive the ravages of time," Ruben said. "

Beseaching, his highness, THE KING, to set a more realistic hitting streak for the Sept 2010 bonus game streak. With the winners having to get a 30 game streak to win – that is too lofty of a goal. This year it looks as if there will be 6 winners maximum. The prize is modest, $100 for two opening day tickets for April 2010. In NY at Yankee Stadium, what would $100 buy? I'm guessing 1 1/2 standing room tickets! It is a fun contest to end the year and gives some hope to all who have toiled and not done so well. For 2010, Oh King, please set the win level at 20 games. Give us a fighting chance to win something.
The Sept 30 game streak edition of bts is kind of like a carnival game – you can try but no one ever wins!
Need to recheck my results… Had Kubel… Hits in both games but credited with only one game
I picked Mag Ordonez for Sunday 9/27 he didn't play. Then i pick M. Cabrera for Monday 9/28, it was rained out. I'm back to zero ? ? Little confused, ON Tuesday the dh both my guys got hits. WHY?
The BTS rules page is a killer to try and read. It does state that if you pick a player who plays in a double header he must get a hit in both games, if he playes in both games, for your streak to advance one game, not two games.
If he get a hit in one game and plays in the other game and does not get a hit, your streak is over.
Is the rule unfair — yes. Moral: stay away from doubleheaders.
baileys1219 – Your streak should not go back to zero if your picks did not play in 2 consecutive games – the King does make errors.
Wednesday 9/30
Going with Ryan Howard in BTS and HR BTS.
Go luck to all……… Got to stay sharp for playoff bts!
dragbunt – since I am new to this I will have to ask…..is there really a playoff game or were you being facetious? 🙂
I was talking about the "playoffs" – "League Championship" series' that will begin next week. There are BTS games for them. The NL/AL do not use the term playoff series'
When you sign in on the fantasy page look on the upper left and you will see 3 new games that begin next week.
I have never played these games before.
With the wild card teams separating themselves, there does not look like there will be a need for a one game playoff on Monday.
Even if there was a 1-game playoff, it would be handled by the regular season versions of Beat the Streak.

Jan-30-08 DCA Celebrates Tenth Year of Downtown Revitalization and Management Institute
DCA Celebrates Tenth Year of Downtown Revitalization and Management Institute
Institute Provides Comprehensive Main Street Training
TRENTON, N.J. – Today, the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs (DCA) celebrated the beginning of its tenth annual Downtown Revitalization and Management Institute (DRMI) at Thomas Edison State College in Trenton . The Institute provides comprehensive training on the internationally-recognized Main Street Approach™ to downtown revitalization, and is the first such state-wide initiative in the nation.
"Main Street New Jersey aids municipalities across the state in revitalizing and managing their downtowns," said DCA Commissioner Joseph Doria, who welcomed DRMI's newest participants at this morning's session. "The Institute is a key training tool that teaches local officials how to best begin implementing the principals of this program in their hometown."
Begun in 1999, the DRMI holds training sessions four times a year. The January sessions will focus on the theme "People, Money & Partnerships: Organizing for Downtown Revitalization and Management". The majority of the participants for this session will be representatives of newly designated Main Street municipalities attending free of charge as a benefit of working with the MSNJ program. Over 60 people will be attending and they will be trained on topics such as establishing and enhancing organizational identity, sustaining downtown management efforts with financial and other resources and effective non-profit management practices. Training will conducted by various state and national experts on these topics. Further sessions will be held at the end of April, July and October of this year.
Over 2,000 people have taken part in the DRMI since 1999, including individuals from Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Maine, New York and Pennsylvania. Those attending all four sessions throughout the year graduate from the program and 100 individuals have done so since the Institute's inception. The DRMI is sponsored by the Office of Smart Growth and its Main Street New Jersey program. The Office of Smart Growth is a DCA affiliate.
Main Street New Jersey is the State's comprehensive revitalization training and technical assistance program that promotes the historic and economic redevelopment of traditional business districts in New Jersey. Every two years the DCA accepts applications and designates selected communities to join the program. DCA announced in December of last year the six newest members of the Main Street New Jersey program: Caldwell, Maple Shade, Montclair, Newton, Orange, and Somerville.
For more information regarding Main Street New Jersey or the DRMI, call 609-633-9769, or log on to http://www.state.nj.us/dca/osg/resources/msnj/index.shtml. (www.mainstreetnewjersey.com)

'The Motorola Milestone is an excellent smartphone and proof that 2010 will be the year of the iPhone alternative . '
'The phone is really good for listening to Rock, Metal and Classical music.'
'Milestone is a terrible name for a phone, especially when the handset in question is pretty hefty (165 grams): after the capital heavy, vowel-less fun of RAZR, PEBBL and DEXT (presumably BRCK didn't make the cut as a potential name), it seems Motorola is taking itself very seriously indeed.'
'But more than that, the Milestone has been hailed as Motorola's comeback phone following the company's recent shaky performance. '
'The Cliq, with Motorola's Motoblur software for gathering information from social networks, is a decidedly consumer-friendly phone that makes the Droid feel deadly serious in comparison. '
'The keyboard is decent-- a good thing for a social networking and messaging oriented phone.'
'reliable mobile Web experience'
'And despite the sliding keyboard, the phone still feels fairly slim. '
'superb, polished phone'
'really cool phone'
'most impressively specced phones'
'The phone has touch sensitive call send and end buttons that are easy-- there's no tactile feedback but the phone does beep when you touch them.'
'a comfortable body.'
'Middling camcorder.'
'lackluster imaging performance'
'The video comes off slightly blocky, blurry and definitely lacks detail.'
'low display resolution'
Large selection of free apps from the Android market
'full QWERTY keyboard'
'The screen on the Galaxy 551 is fairly small for today´s touchscreen world, measuring at just 3.2".'
'comfy & quick keyboard'
Keyboard is quite comfortable to use
'speedy connectivity'

The Day of Archaeology team pays tribute to all of our contributors for 2013. We've seen some wonderful posts and some great responses on social media and via the comments form.
The day in numbers
- Registered users: 1,067
- Number of posts: 329 published (we have 13 in draft if the authors would like to finish them?). In 2012 we had 343 and in 2011 we had 429. So in total: 1,122 are published.
- Number of images: 3,291 have been submitted, in 2013 1,148 images were uploaded to the site.
- There were over 5,500 tweets sent using the hashtag of #dayofarch
- Facebook: reach grew by 263.6% on the previous week. (It will no doubt follow the long tail model until next year.) Average reach for posted links was 37 and for status updates 52.
- Our fan base by country is weighted towards the UK, USA and Spain.
- People from 85 countries visited the site, with the majority from the UK, USA, Canada and Spain.
- The most viewed posts on the 'Day' were by Charles Mount (326 views) and by Amanda Clarke (233 views)
Making the day better?
There are some issues , that we need to resolve as a collective and as a contributing mass to make this project a success on a grander scale:
- How do we engage (this word has been debated at length in the last two years, for example at the CASPAR events at UCL) with a wider public audience and break the silo?
- How do we bring in funding to pay for publicity materials such as posters, stickers and mail shots? At the moment, the only costs are for running the server (covered under PAS running costs) and registering the domain name.
- Do we need to recruit new team members to make this project easier to run?
- How do we get established, big name academics and archaeologists to participate? We haven't managed to garner contributions from people of the standing of Hodder or Renfrew, and we don't seem to have had anything from the big name TV archaeologists even though we've badgered them on social media, for instance. Why have they not joined in? What is the barrier stopping these people from participating?
- How do we get archaeologists from developing and even many developed countries to participate? We lack a volume of entries from say sub-Saharan Africa or Japan or China or South America. The map below shows where people have come from to view the site (blue shades getting heavier means the site was viewed in greater quantities there).
- How do we retain people annually? Contributions have gone down from the first year of the project even though we now have over 1000 individuals registered. Why is this?
- How do we get people with an interest, but no professional or amateur involvement in 'archaeology' as a discipline but maybe as a passion to contribute?
- How do we reach out to media channels and get our project into their output?
- How do we get institutional buy-in on the scale made by Museum of London or RCHAMS?
- Can we make this a reproducible model for other disciplines? We built on the Day of Digital Humanities for instance.
- What do we need to do better? Did you hear about the project at the last minute, or did you have problems registering or contributing your post? If you don't tell us, we can't improve.
Research potential
Some academic work has already been done on these data that have been generated via the project website. Since the 26th, Ben Marwick of the University of Washington has done some in-depth modelling using the R programming language and previously, Shawn Graham from CarletonUniversity did some topic modelling and has blogged extensively about what he did with the website content. The content added here, provides a wonderful career insight for aspiring archaeologists world-wide and can only get more useful year-on-year.
Now, we as a collective have to write up three years of the project as an academic article and the raw content of these posts will be posted as CSV to github shortly.
See you next year?
The Day of Archaeology team 2013: Andrew, Daniel, Jaime, Lorna, Matt, Monty and Tom.

Background on Disease Markers
The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), 137852571, that is being examined in this experiment is linked with Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome and Kennedy Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy. Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome occurs when a person who is genetically male (who has one X and one Y chromosome) is resistant to male hormones (called androgens). As a result, the person has some or all of the physical traits of a female, but the genetic makeup of a male. The mutation on the X chromosome makes the body unable to respond to the hormones that produce a male appearance. Kennedy Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy is a debilitating neurodegenerative disease resulting in muscle cramps and progressive weakness due to degeneration of motor neurons in the brain stem and spinal cord. The SNP is located on the X chromosome and affects the gene AR, the gene is inherited in an x-linked recessive manner therefore only males can be fully affected by the mutation and females are rarely affected. The sequence of this gene is:
Normal: G mutates into cancer A

So much for partying like a rock star. It's a little after noon on a Saturday and Adam Levine has already been up for several hours promoting NBC's hit singing competition The Voice. Thanks to a rigorous production schedule, Season 4's blind auditions, featuring new coaches Shakira and Usher, are already under way while Season 3 is in the midst of its live finals. No wonder the Maroon 5 frontman rubs his eyes sleepily as he sinks into a sofa on the Universal lot in Hollywood. "It's been harder-than-hard hours," admits Levine, 33, effortlessly cool in jeans and a white tee. "But as difficult as it is, it's still really fun because it's rewarding work."
Levine's hardly hurting for jobs these days. Maroon 5's fourth album, Overexposed, debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 in July, thanks to the hit single "Payphone," and he's recently branched into acting with two high-profile gigs. On American Horror Story: Asylum, he played a lusty (and ultimately doomed) newlywed, and he'll soon appear on the big screen in Can a Song Save Your Life? as a musician who breaks Keira Knightley's heart. (Off screen, Levine's happily dating Victoria's Secret model Behati Prinsloo.) "Adam's gone from strength to strength," says The Voice executive producer Mark Burnett. "He's a very focused guy, and he deserves everything that's coming his way."
Much of his recent success is due to the exposure he's gotten from The Voice, a job he was initially reluctant to accept but one that's turned out to be an ideal fit. "The show is Adam at his most nurturing," says James Valentine, Maroon 5's lead guitarist. "He has a lot of wisdom to impart to these singers, and he does it in a sincere way where you can really feel he's looking out for them."
Levine offers a simpler secret for his success. "I'm not a total idiot," he says with a laugh. "And I definitely have a lot to say."
TV Guide Magazine: So how's it going with Shakira and Usher?
Levine: [Original coaches] Christina [Aguilera] and CeeLo [Green] are so close to my heart because we went through the show becoming a success together, and Usher and Shakira are coming into it as a big frickin' institution. So it's different, but it still feels good, because they're legitimate artists.
TV Guide Magazine: Did you know either of them before The Voice?
Levine: I knew Usher. We've worked in the studio a couple of times together. Shakira is a new friend, but I love her dearly already. She's so sweet and adorable and hilarious.
TV Guide Magazine: Might you and Blake Shelton finally get to sit next to each other in Season 4?
Levine: Trust me, we need to be separated. If Blake and I sat next to each other, we'd never get anything done. We already yap at each other across the room like we're yelling across the dinner table.
TV Guide Magazine: On the surface, you guys wouldn't seem to have much in common, yet you've become good friends. Any new experiences he's turned you on to?
Levine: Hunting. He made me shoot at a duck. He was like [adopts Shelton's Southern drawl], "Come on, you sissy!" But I made sure to miss.
TV Guide Magazine: You have a knack for persuading contestants to pick you as a coach. Were you the kid growing up who got all your friends in trouble because you could convince them to do anything?
Levine: A little bit [laughs]. In high school, I might've worked my way around certain things with a smile. My fictional hero is Ferris Bueller. Now as shallow as that may sound, there's a lot of depth to Ferris Bueller.
TV Guide Magazine: How so?
Levine: He was manipulative, yes, but he also understood what was important in life. I feel so connected to that character.
TV Guide Magazine: Has doing the show affected how you feel about your own music career?
Levine: Absolutely. I'd started to become cynical and jaded about the music industry and all the things that I had loved. This show kind of reinvigorated me. It's led to a renaissance, not just in my career but in my life.
TV Guide Magazine: Did you ever dream you'd become a reality-TV star?
Levine: I'm not a reality-TV star. The Voice isn't a show about me going shopping or complaining about stupid f---ing mundane s--- that no one should ever complain about: "Poor rich me and my caviar problems." That drives me crazy. I hate it! There's a purpose to this show.

Visitor Policies
The mission of the Houston Arboretum & Nature Center is to provide education about the natural environment to Houstonians of all ages while acting as an urban wildlife sanctuary for native plants and animals. The Houston Arboretum is a private non-profit educational facility that operates city land.
Because it is a wildlife sanctuary, we ask you to observe the following rules which are in place for the protection and safety of all:
- All plants (their leaves, flowers, cones) and all animals (including turtles and snakes) found at the Houston Arboretum & Nature Center are protected. Collection and removal are not allowed.
- Trails are designed for hiking only. Jogging, biking, skateboarding, horseback riding and other sport recreation activities are not allowed.
- Leave no trace. Littering hurts our wildlife and damages our landscape. Trashcans are located around the building for your convenience. Balloons and confetti pose huge threats to birds, turtles, and other wildlife, and both are strictly prohibited.
- There is no picnicking on Houston Arboretum & Nature Center grounds. However, Memorial Park next door is equipped for such activity.
- The health of wildlife as well as your safety is jeopardized by feeding native animals. Please do not feed the animals.
- For your safety and to reduce environmental impact, stay on designated trails.
- Dogs are permitted only if they are controlled by a leash and restrained to trails during their visit. This is as much for the safety of the pet as for the protection of the wildlife. Potential hazards to dogs not controlled by a short leash include snake bites and contact with poison ivy. All City of Houston Ordinances regarding dogs, including clean up of waste, must be followed. Pets should not be left in unattended vehicles.
- Increase your chances of seeing wildlife by refraining from making loud noises.
- For safety and greater enjoyment, we require that adult sponsors supervise visiting youth groups. At least one adult chaperone per 10 children is required.
- No weapons of any kind are permitted on the Arboretum grounds or in our buildings.
Open/Concealed Handgun Policy:
Pursuant to Section 30.07, Penal Code (trespass by a license holder with an openly carried handgun), a person licensed under Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government Code (handgun licensing law), may not enter this property with a handgun that is carried openly.
Conforme a la sección 30.07 del código penal (traspasar por poseedor con licencia para portar arma de fuego abiertamente) personas con licencia bajo del sub-capitulo H, capitulo 411, codigo de gobierno (ley de portar de armas de fuego), no pueden entrar a esta propiedad portando abiertamente una pistola.
Photography Policy
The Houston Arboretum, at no charge, allows general, everyday pictures of wildlife and people. The pricing below reflects professional photography and non-professional photography for posed occasions. What separates professional from non-professional? If you would like to have a friend or family member take photos for special occasions, and that friend or family will be doing so free of charge, then that would qualify for the non-professional $25. Alternatively, if that friend, family, or hired professional is creating income from the session in question, then that would fall under professional.
- Professional Photography requires a one-time fee of $125, or a yearly rate of $150 that comes with a Magnolia Membership.
- Non-professional/posed photography requires a one-time fee of $25.
Please note: Drone photography is not permitted on site. Professional equipment such as lighting kits and props are not permitted under the $25 fee.
Help us keep our trails clean and animals safe! Items such as glitter, confetti, balloons, etc. are not permitted!
*Please see the front desk for details and to sign in before your photography session. In order to keep you and your guests safe, as well helping to maintain the natural environment enjoyed by all, going off trail is prohibited.
Questions? Please email Christina Spade at email@example.com or call 713-681-8433

Dinner Tonight: Meatless Pozole Verde (Hominy Soup) Recipe
Healthy and delicious recipes from Serious Eats
The original recipe from the Inquisitive Palate called for a slow simmering pork stew, punctuated with acidic tomatillos, soft hominy, and a mound full of garnishes, but I just didn't have the time. So I got rid of the pork from the recipe and it went from taking nearly 2 hours to complete, to more like 45 minutes. More importantly, the resulting soup was light and delicious, and a perfect fit for for the two of us who needed a break from holiday over-indulgence.
Light certainly doesn't mean the same thing as bland. The chiles and toasted pumpkin seeds kept the soup lively and interesting. And if that isn't enough, we only hit the tip of the iceberg on garnishes. The wife and I only used radishes, oregano, and a little lime juice. But you can go crazy adding cilantro, onions, cabbage, chopped tomatoes, and even sour cream. It's up to you and your schedule. This abbreviated dish worked wonders for us.
- 1 fifteen-ounce can hominy
- 1 cup raw hulled pumpkin seeds
- 2 serrano chiles, stemmed, seeded and chopped
- 1/2 pound tomatillos, husk removed and chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped white onion
- 1/4 cup chicken stock
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 radishes, greens removed and thinly sliced
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 2 limes, cut into wedges
Dump the pumpkin seeds into a large skillet over medium high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally until seeds are lightly browned. Remove and let cool for a minute. Then grind in a food processor or blender. Set aside.
Toss the tomatillos and salt into a pot. Cover with water by an inch. Bring to a boil, and then simmer for 10 minutes. Drain the tomatillos and transfer to a food processor. Add the serrano chiles, onion, and stock to the food processor. Process until smooth.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. When hot, carefully pour in the tomatillo mixture. Sprinkle in the ground pumpkin seeds. Stir constantly until mixture has thickened, around 7 minutes.
Transfer the tomatillo mixture to a large pot, and add the hominy along with its liquid. Bring to a boil and then let simmer for 30 minutes.
When done, ladle into bowl, season with salt to taste and top with radishes, a sprinkling of oregano, and a squeeze of lime juice.

If Stephen Harper was to announce tomorrow that the age at which people will be eligible for Old Age Security was going to increase to 67 in the year 2025, who would protest?
Not the over 50s: they'll still be able to start claiming at 65 as planned.
Not many of the under 50s, either. Some under-50s won't protest because they can't be bothered. It's not worth fighting to get a few thousand dollars of Old Age Security payments a couple of decades from now.
Other under-50s won't protest because they believe an increase in the pension age won't affect them: people who enjoy their jobs, and plan on working until 67 in any event; high income people, who would have to repay any Old Age Security anyway.
An increase in the OAS eligibility age might also be accompanied by an increase in the age at which RRSPs must be converted to RRIFs, or an easing of the RRIF withdrawal rules, bolstering support for a change in the pension age.
As Kevin Milligan has argued, increasing the age at which people are entitled to receive Old Age Security and Guaranteed Income Supplement won't produce huge savings. But it's not the absolute savings that matter, it's the savings relative to the political cost incurred - and for an increase in the pension age, those political costs will be manageable.
That's why the the U.S. is raising its full retirement age, and the U.K. is raising its state pension age. We will raise our pension age because it saves money, and has little political cost.
Thus the question is not if the pension age will be increased, but when. As the accompanying graph shows, 1959 saw the highest number of births ever recorded in Canada: 461,703 babies. After that, the number of births fell slightly, and then dropped sharply with the advent of the birth control pill. (Immigration reduces the relative impact of, but does not eliminate, the baby boom bulge.)
For an increase in the pension age to achieve substantial cost savings, it will have to be in place when those 1959 babies hit 65 in 2024.
I'm predicting that the pension age will gradually be increased to 67, in 3- or 6-month increments, by 2023. Canada Pension Plan already allows people to claim earlier or later than 65: those provisions may be altered slightly, or left unchanged.
What about reforming our health care system? That can wait until the 1959 babies are about to run up serious health care bills -- sometime around 2033.

OTTAWA - The NDP's proposed "unity bill" has sparked some disunity in the party's own ranks.
One of the most prominent NDP stalwarts, former Saskatchewan premier Roy Romanow, says he disagrees with the federal party's proposition that a bare majority Yes vote would be sufficient to trigger negotiations on Quebec's secession from Canada.
And he says he's not the only New Democrat with qualms.
"I think within the party there are many people of varying views on this particular issue," Romanow told The Canadian Press.
"I think there's room in the party for a lot of debate and discussion about this issue, certainly when it comes to national unity. To me, it's probably one of the most important, if not the most important issue that any political party in a federation as diverse and fragile as ours must consider."
The NDP's unity bill is meant to replace the Clarity Act, passed by former Liberal prime minister Jean Chretien's government in 2000 following the country's near-death experience in the referendum on Quebec independence five years earlier.
The act stipulates that a clear majority of Quebecers would have to vote Yes on a clear referendum question before the federal government would agree to negotiate terms of a divorce.
It does not specify what constitutes a clear majority, allowing parliamentarians to take into account voter turnout, voting irregularities and other factors before concluding whether the result is sufficiently unambiguous to warrant negotiations.
Federal New Democrats supported the Clarity Act in 2000, as did Romanow, then Saskatchewan premier. The NDP has since changed its mind. Romanow has not.
Indeed, at a tribute for Chretien last month, Romanow told some 700 luminaries from multiple political parties that Clarity was "a great act of political vision and courage and determination" that he's proud to say he supported.
In a subsequent interview, Romanow stressed that he supports NDP Leader Tom Mulcair and understands why he has embraced the notion that 50 per cent plus one vote should be the threshold for any successful referendum vote.
"I can certainly understand the federal NDP's position," Romanow said.
"You have a principle here about democracy working and if 50 plus one is thought to be the general rule in a democratic society then ... that's exactly what should govern all decisions, including the decision with respect to a possible separation.
"That can't be dismissed easily, that argument."
Nevertheless, he added: "I just don't accept its consequences or its potential consequences."
Romanow said he and his government's legal and constitutional advisers did seriously consider whether a simple majority should be sufficient. But after analysing the Supreme Court's advice on the rules for secession, upon which the Clarity Act was based, they concluded that the fate of the country could not hinge on a judicial recount over a handful of votes.
Romanow said he continues to believe that "the nation called Canada ought not to be easily broken up by a clerical error or the wrong attendance of a wrong voter at the wrong time and the wrong place, or something of that nature, that there's got to be a clear expression of it."
Mulcair has called the Clarity Act "a fairy tale told by the Liberals," meant to persuade Canadians that any referendum result they don't like can be tossed out.
But Romanow said he believes the act accurately reflects the advice given by the Supreme Court.
While the top court did not specify a threshold, it did signal that something more than 50 plus one should be required. For instance, it referred repeatedly to the need for a "clear majority," said both the referendum question and the result must be "free of ambiguity" and noted that "Canadians have never accepted that ours is a system of simple majority rule."
The court said it would be up to political actors to determine the precise threshold, taking into account the circumstances surrounding any referendum vote.
The unity bill sets the threshold in advance but stipulates that a simple majority vote would trigger secession negotiations only if the referendum question was clear and there were no "determinative irregularities" in the vote.
The bill makes no allowance for voter turnout. Toronto MP Craig Scott, author of the bill, has said turnout is unlikely to be a problem, noting that 85 and 94 per cent of Quebecers voted in the 1980 and 1995 referendums respectively.
However, anything less than 100 per cent turnout would mean, under the NDP's bill, that less than half of Quebec's eligible voters could end up triggering the breakup of the country.
Romanow said it's those kinds of concerns that persuade him it is more prudent to set "a higher bar."
Scott was not available to comment on Romanow's views.

DAKAR (Reuters) - Regional humanitarian hub Senegal said on Friday it had blocked a regional U.N. aid plane from landing and was banning all further flights to and from countries affected by Ebola, potentially hampering the emergency response to the epidemic.
A number of aid agencies have their regional headquarters in politically stable Senegal. Both medical charity MSF and the United Nations, which are leading efforts to contain a West African Ebola epidemic that has killed at least 1,350 people, had planned to operate regional flights from the country.
The World Health Organisation has repeatedly said it does not recommend travel or trade restrictions for countries affected by Ebola, saying such measures could heighten food and supply shortages.
"We have strengthened our protection strategy by suspending services that link us to countries affected by Ebola since yesterday," said Senegal's tourism and air transport minister, Abdoulaye Diouf Sarr.
Senegal's southern land border with Guinea had also been shut, he said.
Dakar's interior ministry said that the closure referred only to Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia and not to Nigeria, where substantially fewer cases of Ebola have been reported. Senegal has reported no confirmed cases of Ebola.
Asked by Reuters whether there would be exceptions for humanitarian flights, Health and Social Action Minister Awa Marie Coll Seck said: "When we adopt new measures we implement them and afterwards we will see if there are exceptions."
A regional flight coming to the capital Dakar carrying aid workers from Liberia's capital Monrovia via Freetown and Conakry was prevented from landing on Thursday, according to sources familiar with the matter.
Sarr confirmed that the flight was prevented from landing. He said the plane's flight origin had been given as Mali's Bamako and not Monrovia.
A source at the World Food Programme, which operates the United Nations Humanitarian Air Service flights, confirmed that its flights would be suspended until further notice. The daily regional service began on Aug. 16 and three flights were due to leave from Dakar this week, a provisional schedule showed.
Medecins sans Frontieres had also sought permission to operate a regional service but Senegal refused permission, citing "elevated risk", according to a document issued by its aviation body ANACIM dated 21 August and seen by Reuters.
"This is a catastrophe. We need a better response but there's no way for us to do it," said an official at an organisation affected by the flight disruption.
The current Ebola epidemic is the worst in history and has hit hardest in countries whose health systems are ill-equipped to cope with it. Like Sierra Leone and Liberia where new cases are rising fastest, Senegal has a low ratio of doctors to its population with just one for more than 17,000 people, according to political risk research company DaMina Advisors.
Other African countries have tightened travel restrictions this week in an effort to contain the outbreak. Chad closed its border with Nigeria and South Africa said it was banning all travellers from Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone from entering its territory, barring its own citizens.

After coming under fire for using the word "gay" as an insult, Chris Brown defended himself on Twitter.
The hip hop star was caught using the offensive language while an L.A. police officer was giving him a parking ticket on Tuesday. Gay rights group The Human Rights Campaign told TMZ the language was "unacceptable."
"I have total respect for Gay community and my intention was not to insult anyone in it #REALS__T," Brown tweeted on Wednesday, appearing to refer to the incident.
A police officer was getting ready to give the 22-year-old performer a ticket when Brown spotted the paparazzo and blamed him for alerting the authorities about his illegal parking. The TMZ video shows that the officer eventually decided not to write the ticket.
"Y'all n--gas is weak," Brown said to the camera. "Did you all call them to try and film me? Y'all n--gas is gay."
A Human Rights Campaign representative scolded the singer. "Chris Brown should know better…He irresponsibly neglected to recognize the impact of his words and the unacceptable message that is sends to couple the word gay with negative actions," the rep told TMZ.
The "I Can Transform Ya" singer has been criticized for using a gay slur before. The Hollywood Reporter points out that Brown called ex-B2K member Raz B a "homo" and a "d--k in da booty ass lil boy" in a Twitter fight.

Jets owner Woody Johnson detailed his priorities today in an interview with Bloomberg.
Asked whether he would rather the Jets have a winning season in 2012 or Mitt Romney, the Republican presidential candidate that Johnson has backed, take the White House in November, Johnson replied that he would "put country first" and choose a Romney victory.
The Jets, though, clearly remain a priority. During the interview, the team is represented by Johnson's green tie.
Johnson apologized to Jets fans for Sunday's 34-0 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, saying fans deserved better in deeming the Jets' play "unacceptable."

I've seen many riders launch from the water, ie: place the kite on the water, let it drift downwind, move to the side so that when the lines get tension & wind takes hold you can move the kite to the edge of the window.
looks really safe as if you're going to be lofted you're already in the water.
but what do you do with the lines?
-do you drag onlong the ground to water - could get tangled
-do you wrap them up around the bar - but then you quickly need to unwind so that you don't get tension on the lines.
anybody shed some light?

HspE7 Well-Tolerated; Safety Evaluation Allows Advancement to Third Cohort
SAN DIEGO, CA, USA | January 14 , 2008 | Nventa Biopharmaceuticals Corporation (TSX:NVN) today announced the completion of the safety and tolerability assessment in its second cohort of patients in a Phase 1 clinical trial of new HspE7 in patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). HspE7's safety data were normal and met the limits prescribed in the trial protocol, allowing advancement to the third cohort of patients in the study.
The evaluation by the Safety Review Committee was performed after the second cohort reached five weeks of treatment (two doses plus one week of follow-up). The dosing of the third cohort of patients is expected shortly.
At the end of each cohort, Nventa is also collecting immunological data that may provide an early indication of potential efficacy of the compound. All patients are being typed for class I and II human leukocyte antigen (HLA) subtypes, and are being evaluated for cytokine responses, anti-HspE7 antibodies and cellular (T-cell) immunology.
The trial is expected to dose up to 5 cohorts comprising twenty-four patients. The first cohort of patients was administered 500 mcg of HspE7 and 50 mcg of adjuvant containing Poly-IC, a toll-like receptor-3 (or TLR3) agonist . The second cohort was administered 500 mcg of HspE7 and an escalated dose of 500 mcg of adjuvant. The third cohort will be administered 500 mcg of HspE7 and 1,000 mcg of adjuvant, and t he fourth cohort will be administered 500 mcg of HspE7 and 2,000 mcg of adjuvant. An additional cohort of six patients administered 1,000 mcg of HspE7 and 2,000 mcg of adjuvant may be added if deemed appropriate based on data from the previous four cohorts.
Following successful completion of this Phase 1 trial, the Company anticipates launching a Phase 2 clinical trial with new HspE7 in patients with high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia ( CIN 2/3). The Company is also in discussions with clinical investigators regarding the design and implementation of a second Phase 2 trial with new HspE7 in patients that are HIV-positive with low-grade CIN.
Affiliations and investigators in this trial currently include the Montefiore Medical Center; William D. Kolton, M.D. of San Diego , California ; Linda Roman, M.D. of the University of Southern California (USC); Michael L. Twede, M.D. of the Salt Lake Women's Center in Sandy , Utah ; and Mark T. Saunders, M.D. at the Mt. Timpanogos Women's Healthcare/Physician's Research in Pleasant Grove , Utah .
About HspE7, Lead Product Candidate
HspE7 is a novel therapeutic vaccine candidate for the treatment of diseases caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases in the world. HspE7 is derived from Nventa's proprietary CoVal™ fusion platform, which uses recombinant DNA technology to covalently fuse stress proteins to target antigens, thereby stimulating cellular immune system responses. Heat shock proteins (Hsps), also known as stress proteins, are naturally present in the human body and play important roles in the immune system, including transporting substances within cells and activating cells of the immune system .

Nventa is developing innovative therapeutics for the treatment of viral infections and cancer, with a focus on diseases caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). The corporation is publicly traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol NVN. For more information about Nventa, please visit www.nventacorp.com.
