Cassini spies Saturn moon geysers

The Cassini spacecraft has captured striking images from flying by three moons of Saturn, including new pictures of Enceladus's gushing geysers.

Cassini made its lowest pass yet over the south pole of Enceladus, at at an altitude of 74km (46 miles).

This allowed it to "taste" the jets of water vapour and ice that the moon spews forth into space.

The Nasa probe also made relatively close flypasts of two other Saturnian satellites: Dione and Janus.

The observations were made over 27 and 28 March.

The encounter was primarily designed for Cassini's ion and neutral mass spectrometer instrument, which sampled the composition of Enceladus's south polar plume.

Other instruments, including the Cassini plasma spectrometer and composite infrared spectrometer, also took measurements.

Before the closest approach to Enceladus, Cassini's onboard cameras captured images of the geysers, which contain organic compounds along with the ice and vapour.

The jets erupt from cracks, or hot fissures, at the south pole known as "tiger stripes".

Several lines of evidence suggest the jets are fed by a liquid water ocean beneath Enceladus' outer icy shell.

Scientists have previously detected salts in these jets, which suggests the ocean is probably in contact with the moon's rocky core.

"Cassini has flown several times now through this spray and has tasted it. And we have found that aside from water and organic material, there is salt in the icy particles. The salinity is the same as that of Earth's oceans," said Dr Carolyn Porco, head of the imaging team on Cassini.

As the spacecraft passed Enceladus, the cameras made a nine-frame mosaic of the surface of Enceladus's leading hemisphere.

Cassini then flew by the small moon Janus with a closest approach distance of 44,000km. The planet was in the background in some of these views.

On 28 March, the spacecraft passed Dione at roughly the same distance and captured, among other observations, a nine-frame mosaic depicting the side of the moon that faces away from Saturn.

It sounds crazy but it could be snowing microbes on the surface of this little world?

End Quote Dr Carolyn Porco Space Science Institute

Scientists recently presented evidence that Dione has features resembling tiger stripes and a cryovolcano, which erupts water-ammonia or methane instead of molten rock.

It is unclear whether there is current geological activity at Dione, but, if so, it is almost certainly at a lower level than on Enceladus.

The discovery that Enceladus probably harbours an ocean in contact with the rocky core makes this moon an even more important target in the search for life elsewhere in the Solar System. The rocks could furnish the ocean with the chemical ingredients thought essential for life.

"The kind of ecologies Enceladus might harbour could be like those deep within our own planet," Dr Porco said in an interview with Nasa's science website.

The habitable zone on Enceladus might be comparatively easy to access by future robotic space missions. Dr Porco added: "It's erupting out into space where we can sample it. It sounds crazy but it could be snowing microbes on the surface of this little world.

"In the end, it's the most promising place I know of for an astrobiology search. We don't even need to go scratching around on the surface. We can fly through the plume and sample it. Or we can land on the surface, look up and stick our tongues out."

The source of Enceladus's heat appears to be Saturn itself. The moon moves around Saturn in a distorted, oval-shaped orbit rather than a circular one.

This causes it to be pulled and squeezed by Saturn's gravity, inducing the heat that enables geological activity on the icy moon.

George Zimmerman Police Video: No Signs of Injury, Blood After Trayvon Martin Shooting


Police surveillance video footage of George Zimmerman hours after he shot Trayvon Martin does not appear to show any injuries or bloodstains on the man who claims he killed the Florida teen in self defense February 26.

His attorney says the video is too grainy to be revealing, however.

The footage, obtained by ABC News late Wednesday, shows the handcuffed Zimmerman getting out of the police car, unaided, and walking into the police station where he was escorted after the shooting in Sanford, Fla. Watch:

In the police tape, taken about four hours after the deadly incident, there are no visible signs of injuries to Zimmerman's head or blood on his clothes.

However, he is wearing a red jacket, which could obscure a lot.

Zimmerman's attorney Craig Sonner described the video as "very grainy" on NBC's Today, noting that Zimmerman had been "cleaned-up" and received first aid care in the hours between the incident and his arrival at the police station.

Sonner previously said that his client suffered a broken nose and a gash to his head during the altercation in which he says Zimmerman feared for his life.

Appearing on CNN Wednesday, Martin family lawyer Benjamin Crump called the video “the smoking gun,” proving the self-defense allegation is not true.

“I think the video speaks for itself. You don’t see any broken nose. You don’t see any blood on his head. You don’t see any stuff on the back of his clothes."

"You have to ask why did this police chief, state attorney and now this acting police chief conspire to protect George Zimmerman for killing this unarmed teenager?"

A neighborhood watch volunteer, Zimmerman was released without being charged. The Trayvon Martin case has since become a national obsession.

Richard Kurtz, the funeral director who prepared Martin's body, was asked if there were any signs on his hands that the victim had punched someone.

"The only thing that I was able to see was the gunshot wound," Kurtz told MSNBC. "I could not see evidence like he had been punching somebody."

"It just did not add up to me."

The self-defense claim clearly deserves scrutiny, but whether this is sufficient proof that there was no struggle is something investigators must determine.

Staggeringly Efficient Bathroom Fan Sucks Out Steam and Stink [Homemod]

The exhaust fan—that rattling, dusty vent hanging about 8 feet above the toilet—is the single most important gadget for the health of a bathroom. It eliminates the steam from a hot shower, helping battle the mold and mildew constantly threatening a bathroom's finishes. The device also helps fix more immediate air quality issues—they'd never say it in front of a client, but in the salty slang of a plumbing supply house, pros refer to it as a fart fan. More »

Motorola Xoom WiFi gets first official dibs on Android 4.0.4

Image
Tales of leaked Android 4.0.4 builds have been told for months, and we've even heard whispers of 4.0.5 coming to the Samsung Galaxy Nexus in the very near future. We still haven't seen any official firmware rollouts of either version, until now. Owners of the Motorola Xoom WiFi should be getting their hands on an update to 4.0.4 -- also known as build IMM76 -- any time now. According to an email from Moto announcing the update, the latest refresh offers improved stability, quicker screen rotation, better phone number recognition, camera and image quality improvements, enhancements to Microsoft Exchange and even a new setting that lets you choose whether you want the power button to lock the device immediately or not.

If you aren't seeing the update hit yet, Droid-Life has reported that the file is available for download thanks to XDA, but it appears that some users have experienced errors when attempting it. So if you're feeling adventurous and don't want to wait for the OTA download, feel free to give it a shot. You'll need to drag the file into a USB stick, plug it in using a USB host cable and boot your Xoom into stock recovery.

Computer Finance Bad Credit: Finance For Computer | An Accident ...

Computer is one of the most common and important electronic gadgets of the modern world. A modern man without a computer with him is just what one cannot imagine. It is easy to comprehend the overwhelming popularity of the computers just following the recent record of the turnover achieved by the producing and selling companies of the computers. Nevertheless, it is not always possible for most of the men and women to have a computer of their choice. The reason behind this is that the price tag of a standard computer having the latest provisions is enough to create tremor in the wallet. Hence, a section of the people considers securing the finance from any lender. True it is still that many of them have messed up their history of credit. Against this scenario, computer finance bad credit appears to be the perfect choice for the ones who want to own a computer.

The phrase computer finance bad credit clearly indicates that the lender would not consider the history of credit or would not bother to check it when he advances any loan amount of this kind to any borrower. The fact still it is that computer finance bad credit is available in the market in two categories: secured and unsecured.

The loan-seeker aiming at securing computer finance bad credit in secured form must have valuable property which he would pledge against the amount of loan to be offered by the lender. The lender will enjoy a right to grab the collateral assets if the borrower fails to pay back the borrowed amount. Of course, the lender will warn him more than once before taking possession of the said property.

Collateral property is not asked from the borrower when the lender offers computer finance bad credit in unsecured form. The terms and conditions in the unsecured form are stricter. The rates of interest are comparatively high and the period for reimbursement is shorter.

The amount of loan to be offered is fixed by the lender. The lender takes a decision assessing the financial potency of the loan-seeker.

The borrower must be a citizen of United Kingdom and he must be over 18. He must have an annual income of about 12,000. It is important that he must be working in any officially accepted establishment. He must also have checking account.

The borrower is allowed to apply online and online submission of loan application is comfortable.

Table for Two: Thursdate Do-It-Together Dessert Party

My fianc? and I love eat out. It?s probably our favorite couples activity aside from lounging around in our pajamas during all-day movie marathons (I confess, we are lazy weekenders!). I think part of the reason we both chose New York City (he for employment, me for college) had to do with the food scene. Don?t get me wrong, our home-town of Nashville hosts its own bevy of lick-your-plate delicious restaurants, but for variety in cuisine, well, there is no city in the world like New York for that! I think we both imagined life in New York to be one giant date night where the food and drink was as free flowing as the honking of horns from the yellow taxi cabs.

Reality:?Chris and I can?t afford to go out every night; heck, we can?t?even afford every weekend. When you?re young, the ole wallet has to be tight, whether you like it or not, and New York City is no cheap excursion. However, pinching pennies and dating need not butt heads. There are plenty of ways around a tight budget that are still mighty entertaining and delicious.

Enter, the Thursdate?Do-It-Together Dessert Party. This has become a couples tradition for the boy and me. Exhasution from a near full week of work and a desire to enjoy the last weeknight before the glorious days of relaxation joined forces and led us smack into dessert night. A little post-dinner sugar pick-me-up is the perfect way to ring in Friday, and you don?t even need to get dressed up.

The options for Do-It-Together Dessert Party are as vast as the dessert world itself. Chris and I have done sundaes, yogurt parfaits, peanut butter bon bons, and sugar cookies. We have tried fudge sauce, puddings, hot chocolate, and caramel popcorn. But time and time again, we return to the chocolate chip cookie. There is nothing more fun than baking together: he adds the flour, I beat the eggs. He dumps in the chocolate chips and I stir. In the end we take turns cramming as much cookie dough into our mouths as we can while waiting for our golden brown babies to roast. A hot and melted?cookie and a cold glass of milk on the couch next to the person you love most in the world, no sir, no amount of money can beat that feeling.

**Recipe**

?

Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies
Makes about 30

Ingredients
10 tablespoons salted butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat your oven to 500?D, which is scary high, I know?trust me the final result is amazing, warm and gooey in the center but with a charred and crunchy edge.

With an electric mixture or by hand (though it will take some muscle) beat butter and sugar for 2 to 3 minutes. Add in the egg and continue to mix until the batter is blended and airy, another minute or two. You will want to taste it now, and it will taste good.

In a separate bowl mix together flour, baking powder, and salt. In small batches, transfer the dry mix to the batter and stir like crazy. This process takes about 3 minutes.

Finall add in the chocolate chips, the key ingredient. Make sure to mix them throughout. Sample the dough here, just to make sure it?s amazing, which it will be.

Drop dough by spoonful onto a greased baking sheet. Maintain enough room between cookies, about 1 and 1/2 inches apart, as cookies will flatten and expand in high heat. Bake for 5 minutes, watching vigilantly; working with such high heat lends itself to a batch of burned babies!

Enjoy with a glass of cool milk, and then keep on enjoying for the next few days.

Should You Let Your Kids Try Wine?

When my son James was 10 months old, he was baptized into my religion. The ceremony took place in Bordeaux, and I performed it myself, rubbing a small amount of 2000 Ch?teau P?trus on his gums. Yes, the kid started well. Since the age of 4, he has been allowed to dip his finger into my glass pretty much whenever he wants. (He says he especially likes Champagne; I?ve told him that?s what his allowance is for.) All along, I?ve assured myself that my wife and I were being a sensible, forward-thinking parents?that if we didn?t make wine completely off-limits and instead permitted ?James, now 10, and his 7-year-old sister, Ava, to satisfy their curiosity about it (within reason, of course), they?d be less likely to abuse alcohol later in life. Recently, though, I?ve started to wonder if that?s really true. Does early exposure promote responsible drinking, or is it better to treat alcohol as forbidden fruit?

Fox pulls plug on '24' movie; Kiefer Sutherland furious

LOS ANGELES, March 14 (TheWrap.com) - Kiefer Sutherland is furious at 20th Century Fox, which has called a halt to the movie version of his hit television show, "24," over budget and star salary issues, TheWrap has learned.

The movie based on the conspiracy-terrorism-action show was in pre-production and set to start shooting next month, but has now ground to a halt because Fox will greenlight a budget no higher than $30 million, while Sutherland and producer Brian Grazer feel the budget needs to be in the low $40s at its tightest.

A Fox spokesman confirmed that the movie was on hold, and said it was related to timing.

"We're still working on a script, and hope to make when Kiefer next has time," said the spokesman. "But this all came down to timing, and seven weeks is not enough time to prep a movie like this."

But insiders on the project refuted that version of the situation. According to them, the Fox television star feels insulted that Fox has offered him a relatively measly salary of $1 million to do the movie.

Sutherland, who has helped Fox make hundreds of millions of dollars off the hit show and is represented by CAA, wanted $5 million. (He is also the producer.)

Talks between the two sides continued up until the last 24 hours, with Fox co-chairman Tom Rothman getting involved, according to individuals with knowledge of the situation. One of those told TheWrap that the sides would be meeting at 2:30 p.m. Wednesday to try to work out their differences.

Sutherland's agency CAA had no immediate comment, nor did his management.

The "24" budgeting problem may cause potential problems with the Fox Television Network, which needs Sutherland for its new television series, "Touch." That show debuts March 22, and Sutherland recently returned from traveling abroad to promote it.

"24" was meant to go into production in April, when "Touch" went on hiatus, according to a television studio spokesman.

Now all of that has been thrown into question, and all of the talent attached is apparently furious.

Overall, Sutherland's impression was that "the studio didn't seem to be paying attention or be consistent with notes and thoughts," said one person in his camp. In other words, the guy feels dissed.

Times are tough in this business, but why Fox would nickel-and-dime a star like Sutherland, whose show has an international as well as a strong domestic audience is a mystery. Yes, Sutherland has gotten inordinately wealthy off the series and, yes, star fees have come down in recent years -- but still.

Individuals involved with the movie pointed out that Fox has gone through similar troubles in the past and its reputation has been hurt as a result.

Said one of those individuals: "At the end of day it's not only hard to make movies at Fox specifically, but it's also no fun."

The Impact of the Growing Clean Energy Industry in Michigan

Here in Michigan, a fairly new trade group, the Energy Innovation Business Council, foresees the demand for clean energy?including biomass, solar and wind power?will grow substantially by 2015, not only statewide, but also nationally and globally. In the last few years, sustainability has become one of America?s biggest concerns.

You may have noticed that Detroit has been in the news a lot lately. General Motors (GM) is again the number one automaker in the world, and Ford is investing billions of dollars in American plants and factories to bring jobs back from overseas. The work done in Detroit has created 200,000 new jobs in the past two and a half years. Recently, President Barack Obama praised the Detroit auto companies for making a difference in the clean energy industry in Michigan.

This is precisely why the trade group believes Michigan has a competitive advantage in the clean energy industry, simply because they have always been known for their auto manufacturing.

They believe they can reinvent themselves in the clean energy industry in Michigan.

The council recently completed a study in which it found that the clean energy industry could have the potential to create an annual average economic impact of $4.9 million on Michigan, including 21,791 jobs supported and $163.7 million in local and state revenues. This data supports the idea that the clean energy industry brings benefits that are twofold?not only does it create jobs, but it helps to ensure that we preserve our environment and reduce our dependency on foreign sources of energy.

If the state wants to continue encouraging growth in the clean energy industry, the EIBC suggests starting educational campaigns promoting sustainable energy and incentive programs for state manufacturers.

The Energy Innovation Business Council just launched in February 2012, and is made up of over 30 Michigan-based companies that have an interest in sustainable energy and the potential it has to be a powerful new industry for the state.

The organization?s goal is to diversify and grow the clean energy industry in Michigan.

The EIBC does not currently plan on seeking government subsidiaries or tax breaks, but the group?s president, Ed Clemente, encourages state policymakers to take a look at all of the energy options and policies that help diversify the clean energy industry in Michigan. While the auto sector continues to be what Michigan is known for industrially, the state is making great strides in diversifying the types of businesses that look to make Michigan home.

Easy Tips To Help You Stop Snoring ? Stock Market News ...

Snoring is an annoying sound produced while people sleep, and many don?t realize they do it. In fact, you might never know about your snoring until another person informs you.

If you?re a bit self-conscious when it comes to snoring, read this article to learn some methods that might help you to rid yourself of this problem.

To reduce snoring, stick to a good body weight. While body weight does not always play a role in snoring, excess fat in the neck can place more pressure on your airways, which contributes to snoring.

They pull your nostrils open and keep them in that position, allowing more air to flow through to your lungs. They do not contain any medications or chemicals, and almost anyone can use them safely.http://apneasleepsnoring.com/everything-ou-need-to-kow-to-stop-snoing

If you are bothered by snoring, you might find the solution through a visit to your dentist. He can create a mouth-guard using a mold of your mouth.

This will keep your jaw in the right place, allowing your airway to stay open and the snoring to stop.

For those that snore, they need to sleep on their sides to minimize the problem. Studies show that when people fall asleep on their side as opposed to their back, snoring will occur less often. While it may take some getting used to, it is a great way to stop snoring.

You are more prone to snoring in your sleep if you are congested because of allergies and other things. Congestion in your airways and nasal passages inhibits airflow and makes it difficult to breathe while sleeping.

Keeping a proper sleep routine is also critical. You have to set a time for going to sleep every night and set a time for waking up everyday.

They may also cause the development of sleep apnea, a disorder which can cause cardiovascular disease. Therefore it is crucial that you avoid these substances.

Do not eat much or drink alcohol in the three hours before bed if you want to stop snoring. Your muscles in your throat can be relaxed by heavy meals and alcohol.

This can make you snore, regardless of whether you have a history of snoring.

Performing the exercise involves making vowel sounds and doing tongue curls, both of which increase the strength of the upper respiratory system, as well as the muscles that contribute to snoring.

Although it is not scientifically proven that left side sleepers snore less, it has helped many couples get a good nights rest. Though there is plenty of anecdotal evidence which shows that sleeping on your left side will open up the airways and reduce some snoring.

Your airways will be straighter and less constricted by your body weight in this position, making snoring less likely, and less severe.

Speak with your doctor to see if one of your medications is creating your snoring. There are prescription medications that cause snoring. For example, pain killers and muscle relaxants can loosen the muscles in your throat, causing it to restrict your airway. A snoring problem is often caused by airway restriction.

Try to avoid physically assailing your snoring bed partner during the night. Many times snoring can become so frustrating that you may want to lash out at the snoring sleeper; however, this will only cause anger and stress between yourself and your sleep partner. Use a pair of earplugs as a constructive solution to the problem.

There are a few ways to keep the nose clear when you are sick, including neti pots, humidifiers, hot showers, and vapor rubs. Nasal strips are also a good investment in the fight against snoring. These are placed over the bridge of the nose and allow extra air to flow through by forcing the nasal passages to open.

Keep trying new things, and use the information here to find the solution you need and stop snoring for good.

We do not have to live with a partner that snores their head off night after night just go to my site and get the cure to a perfect nights sleep.snoring cures

Factbox: How the 19 banks fared in stress tests

(Reuters) - The Federal Reserve said on Tuesday that 15 of the 19 largest U.S. bank holding companies passed this year's stress tests, meaning they would maintain a Tier 1 common equity ratio above 5 percent in a severe economic downturn.

The four companies that did not pass were Ally Financial, SunTrust Banks Inc, Citigroup Inc, and MetLife Inc, which failed because its minimum risk-based capital ratio, at 6 percent, was far lower than any other bank in the exams. The company said the Fed's standards were too "bank-centric" and not appropriate for insurers.

Here is a list of the 19 banks, their minimum capital ratios through 2013 under the test (including capital proposed by the banks) and whether the banks announced they had received approval from the Fed for dividend increases and/or share repurchase plans.

Ally Financial 2.5 No

American Express 10.8 Yes

Bank of America 5.9 No

Bank of New York Mellon 13.0 Yes

BB&T 6.4 Yes

Capital One 7.8 --

Citigroup 4.9 No

Fifth Third 6.3 No

Goldman Sachs 5.7 Yes

JPMorgan Chase 5.4 Yes

KeyCorp 5.3 Yes

MetLife 5.1 No

Morgan Stanley 5.4 *

PNC 5.9 Yes

Regions 6.6 No

Lady Gaga Collaborator Jonas Akerlund Expects 'Great' Things From Her

'She can probably do anything she wants,' 'Paparazzi' and 'Telephone' director tells us at SXSW.
By Kara Warner

<P>After the mostly positive reviews of <a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/lady_gaga/artist.jhtml">Lady Gaga</a>'s first music-video directorial effort on <a href="/news/articles/1675270/lady-gaga-marry-the-night-music-video.jhtml">"Marry the Night"</a>. It's fair to assume that we fans can expect more Gaga-directed clips in the near future. </P><P> </P><P>When MTV News caught up with her "Paparazzi" and "Telephone" <a href="/news/articles/1633818/the-man-behind-lady-gagas-telephone-video-jonas-akerlund.jhtml">director Jonas &#197;kerlund</a> recently during his SXSW appearance for his new ensemble dark comedy "Small Apartments," we asked him for his thoughts on Gaga's future as a director, should she choose to direct all of her videos from here on out. </P><P> </P><P><center><embed src="http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:uma:video:mtv.com:748102/cp~id%3D1680857%26vid%3D748102%26uri%3Dmgid%3Auma%3Avideo%3Amtv.com%3A748102" width="460" height="260" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" base="."></embed></center> </P><P> </P><P>"She can probably do anything she wants," he said. "So that's probably going to be great." </P><P> </P><P>And would &#197;kerlund make himself available for advice, should Gaga ever be in need of it? </P><P> </P><P>"Of course. I would never turn her down," he said, at which point his "Apartments" star and funnyman Matt Lucas ("Bridesmaids") asked a question of his own. </P><P> </P><P>"Is her real name Lady Gaga?" </P><P> </P><P>"Yes," &#197;kerlund answered with a smile. </P><P> </P><P>"Wow," Lucas responded with astonishment. "There's a fact for you MTV fans." </P><P> </P><P>Although &#197;kerlund didn't mention any more work with Gaga at this time, the busy director is still fully in the mix of the world of music videos. </P><P> </P><P>"I may do a couple music videos and I've done quite a few since 'Small Apartments,' actually. The last one I did was a Duran Duran video, but there's a few coming up too." </P><P> </P><P>"Are you going to do the Osmonds video?" Lucas asked cheekily. "That's what they're asking." </P><P> </P><P>"Maybe," &#197;kerlund responded, playing along with Lucas' joke. "I'm hoping to." </P><P> </P><P>For her part, Gaga has said that she's always been heavily involved in the creative processes behind all her work, including the direction of her music videos. </P><P> </P><P>"I know it's my directorial debut, but I've really created everything I've ever done in my career," she said. "I really didn't do anything differently on this video that I didn't do on the 'Telephone' video or the 'Paparazzi' video or the 'Bad Romance' video. I hope my fans will take from this the progression that you have to trust yourself to make mistakes."</p>

One Direction: A Guide To The Biggest Boy Band Around

After thousands turned out to see the British group perform on 'Today,' we look at who they are and how they got so big so fast.
By John Mitchell


One Direction
Photo: Courtesy of Columbia Records

On Monday morning (March 12), One Direction made their American television debut on "Today," performing their hits "What Makes You Beautiful," "One Thing" and "More Than This" in front of what was, according to Matt Lauer, one of the biggest crowds ever to pack the plaza — right up there with the numbers attracted by top pop acts like Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber.

If the throngs of screaming teenage girls left you scratching your head, wondering what all the fuss was about, it's not your fault. These guys seem to have come out of nowhere and already have people asking, "Are One Direction the next Beatles?"

Why is everyone suddenly talking about One Direction? Let's take a look.

What is One Direction?
We're glad you asked. One Direction is a five-member boy band. They are already very popular in their native U.K. (hence the Beatles comparison), where their debut album, Up All Night, has already gone double-platinum. Night is being released in the U.S. on Tuesday.

Though the lead single from Night, "What Makes You Beautiful," has only recently been added to U.S. radio, it is already a hit, with sales of 255,000 in just three weeks, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The song debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 at #28 in late February, giving the boys the highest debut chart position of any U.K. act since the Spice Girls' "Wannabe" opened at #11 in January 1997.

"Beautiful," a carefree pop ditty with an infectious chorus, bested Adele's "Rolling in the Deep" to take home the fan-voted Best British Single prize at the BRIT Awards last month.

The fan frenzy around One Direction is reminiscent of the early days of Bieber Fever. When the band made its first public appearance in the U.S. at Boston's Natick Mall on March 4, more than 5,000 screaming fans descended on the shopping center. It was a relatively peaceful scene, though, especially when compared to the riot that broke out in 2009 when the 3,000 fans who had gathered at Long Island's Roosevelt Field Mall to see Bieber began pushing and shoving as they got word that police were canceling the event because the crowd had become too rowdy.

A likely reason the band already has such a large and fervent fanbase here in the U.S. despite being new to the scene is their accessibility on YouTube, where the video for "What Makes You Beautiful" has nearly 69 million views. YouTube is also largely credited with launching Bieber.

Who is in the band?
The five English and Irish gents in One Direction are Niall Horan, 18, Zayn Malik, 19, Liam Payne, 18, Harry Styles, 18, and Louis Tomlinson, 20. In typical boy-band fashion, each guy has his own shtick. This morning on "Today," we learned that Horan is the "cute little Irish one," Malik is the "quiet and mysterious" one, Payne is "the sensible one," Styles is "the charming one" and Tomlinson is "the funny one."

Each group member appeared on the 2010 season of the U.K. version of "The X Factor," where they tried and failed to make the cut in the individual boys category. At the suggestion of the show's producers, they joined forces and re-entered as a group. Together as One Direction, they ultimately finished third in the competition and were signed to "X Factor" creator Simon Cowell's Syco Records.

What's next?
The sky's the limit.

One Direction recently wrapped up a small joint tour with another boy band, Big Time Rush, and its success inspired Entertainment Weekly to run a story with a headline asking, "Are Boy Bands Officially Back?"

Considering the success of the Wanted, who just wrapped their tour of the U.S. and U.K. at Dublin's massive O2 Arena on Friday and will release their U.S. debut April 24, it's a question many are now asking. It's been a long time since the Backstreet Boys, 'NSYNC and 98 Degrees ruled pop radio, and the out-of-nowhere success of the Wanted and One Direction have a lot of people wondering whether, after several years of hip-hop stars and pop divas ruling the charts, we're in for a boy-band revival.

One Direction are already booked to perform at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards on March 31 as well as on "Saturday Night Live" on April 7. The band's December-January Up All Night tour of the U.K. sold out in minutes, prompting the band to add an Oceania leg with five dates planned across Australia and New Zealand in April. The next logical step would be a tour of the U.S., though no plans have been announced.

What do you think of One Direction? Is it all just hype or will the boys be around for a while? Let us know in the comments below!

Austrian economic recovery reaches the concrete market | Business ...

Austrian economic recovery reaches the concrete marketThe semi-annual business survey conducted by the Association of Austrian and precast concrete works (V?B) from June 2011 to close to the optimistic mood of the last survey.

Two-thirds of the companies were evaluated on the 1st Half-year 2011 revenue growth recorded by an average of 5 to 10 percent compared to 2010. 37.5 percent of companies reported with revenue increases that you attribute the sales increase to an expansion of its service and product portfolio. Also, the gain of customers (32.5 percent) plays an important role. The lack of major projects and the government sector makes itself increasingly felt in the industry, however.

Although the crisis in the construction industry is still not entirely forgotten, the latest figures speak of V?B economic barometer of June 2011 for continuous growth. About three-quarters of businesses talk about a sales increase over the previous year ? 12 months ago there were only a third of all companies surveyed.25 percent were able to post even growth in the range of six to ten percent. Almost one third (32.5 percent) lead the sales growth to the gain of customers and other 37.5 percent return on the expansion of service and product portfolio.

Continuation of the uptrend hopes
In macroeconomic terms, the concrete and precast industry by the momentum of the current general trend to benefit in 2011, subdued, even when expected in the second half with a slowdown. Based on an improved capacity utilization and a positive outlook in the Austrian economy, the companies look as of July 2011, the next few months, quite contrary to positive. 61 percent believe that the year 2011 will develop satisfactorily for the entire industry. However, despite the good financial situation remains a serious problem due to lack of large orders and orders of public authorities. Declines in tenders for infrastructure because of the austerity programs of ASFINAG and ?BB are quite noticeable. Also how the current financial situation affects the investment and construction activity in the community remains to be seen.

Stable employment
Also for the employment situation of the approximately 2700 employees and apprentices records the Economic survey of V?B a very positive picture. 68 percent expect a stable employment situation for the 2nd half of 2011th For some companies the number of employees will rise even higher. Overall, 58 percent employ more than half of all apprentices in the areas of production operations, administration and sales. The majority of apprentices in the administration (51.9 percent) and manufacturing (44.4 percent) to find. Here, too, stands a stable to slightly rising trend for the next generation from. 71 percent expect that the number will remain the same in some of the trainees. About 13 percent plan to set more apprentices.

Industry development to construction areas differentiate
?Based on the current results can be said that the concrete and precast industry has to catch up with the overall economic recovery. This stabilization of the market are cause for some optimism, ?says Bernd Wolschner, president of the Association of Austrian concrete and precast concrete plants (V?B) The joy of the positive economic developments were however reported to not always increases, so Wolschner.? During the Building upward trend shows the depth and office buildings are rather stagnant to declining. After the crisis-induced downturn in the last two years of V?B is now based on a stabilization of sales for each company and the industry. ?

However, this must be taken to differentiate the various areas of construction: ?There are a number of divisions that reported to have current gains. It is particularly important here to emphasize the good growth rates in commercial and industrial buildings ? even if the growth is starting to see a low level relative to back ?.

Also in the housing, the situation is mixed: ?On one hand half of the companies listed here, an increase in sales, making the other hand, just as noticeable decline in sales. While the one-and two-family houses developed more positively to the multi-family housing construction shows declining. As before, the production levels are up to 30 percent behind those of 2007. ?There is an urgent need to expand the housing subsidy continues, this also earmarked to use and provide additional funds for the renovation ready to continue to drive the economic engine,? said Wolschner.

Insight and Outlook: The V?B and its initiatives
Finally, look Bernd Wolschner still in the future and explained future plans of the V?B: ?To enhance the current positive trend in the industry yet and provides lists for the concrete and precast industry a competitive future, the V?B committed decidedly for the training of young and long-term image strengthening of the innovative material concrete. ?

Specifically, calls Wolschner two measures that the efforts of the V?B illustrate ? namely concrete marketing (as a campaign) and concrete knowledge (as a training platform): ?Our current in cooperation with the BetonMarketing current image initiative has set itself the goal of all buyers ? by dealer to to consumers ? and the possibilities of sustainable material to provide concrete: both in the design, as well as in improving energy efficiency. Concrete is also finally build the future, and this aspect will appear in the product communication even more apparent.

75% Commissions - Highest Converting Product In The Oil Rig Jobs Niche

$70k For Working 6 Months a Year
? No Experience Needed!

An industry with high paying wages and lots of time off!

Have you been held back because you keep hearing
that you need to have experience?
Then have a look at this!

$70k per year

A few years ago, I was in the exact same position as you.

  • I had just come back from a long trip overseas travelling the world
  • had no money
  • no qualifications
  • and I needed a job where I could start earning big dollars ? fast!

I was asking everyone I knew, ?what is the best job for earning money quickly?. There were two responses that kept coming up, oil rigs and mines. The only problem with that was, everyone told me that it was almost impossible to get your foot in the door unless you were experienced or knew someone in the industry.

I knew one person in the industry but I found out very quickly that he was unable to help me. I certainly didn?t have experience, I didn?t even know what a rig or a mine looked like. The other thing that would have been helpful is some experience in a related field such as a diesel fitter, but my experience working in hotels and pubs was not helpful at all.

I decided that there had to be something I could do to give myself a chance. After a little more investigating to find out which of the two industries suited me best, I decided oil rigs were the way to go. Both industries offered the same opportunities but the rigs appealed to me more for a few reasons. Mainly because I didn?t want to move to a mining town, the rigs would allow me to live wherever I wanted.

I remember being very nervous when I walked into the office. They weren?t even expecting me and I was about to ask them to employ me even though I didn?t know a single thing about oil rigs.

With all the odds stacked against me, 45 minutes later I walked out the door as their newest employee. So if it is so hard to get a job in these types of industries, what was it that I did so differently to everyone else?

Maybe you are thinking that I just got lucky because I looked the part for someone who would be good at manual labour? Certainly not! I had been travelling for months and had done no form of exercise for quite some time. As well as that, I was in my mid-twenties but didn?t look a day older than twenty.

Well?

To cut a long story short I did a few things that would put the odds in my favour as much as possible. Over time working in the industry I discovered something that I was unaware of when I first applied for the job. Even though I was unaware, this was something that majorly contributed to me being able to get a job.

This simple but extremely common misunderstanding is, in my opinion the single largest cause of people failing to get a job on the rigs. It is something that I have now given the name ?The Oil Rig Jobs Myth!?

Since I began working on the rigs I have spoken to countless people who either want to or have wanted to get a job on the rigs in the past. It is always the same story and the oil rig jobs myth is hard at work. Even when I can tell people otherwise from my personal experience, they just don?t seem to want to believe me.

All I can say is that despite what you have heard from so many other people, it is easier to do than you think. Who are you going to believe, your friend who has never even tried to get a job on the rigs or someone who has actually done it?

This is a topic that I have talked about with so many people that I decided to write a book about it.

In My eBook

Oil Jobs Book Cover

How To Get A Job On The Rigs
A Downloadable eBook

I reveal:

  • Exactly what the oil rig jobs myth really is. This knowledge alone, should you choose to believe it, will put you ahead of all the people you have ever heard say ?I tried to get a job on the rigs and it?s almost impossible?
  • A little known fact that will expand your options. I am continually suprised about how many people don?t realise this option is available to them
  • How to put yourself ahead of the pack. Including a detailed explanation of the following 5 points
    1. Job training requirements and possible courses you could do
    2. Previous experience that you could use to your advantage
    3. An Insiders tip that will give you an advantage that no other applicants would think to do
    4. When is the best time to apply
    5. And where to look to find entry level jobs
  • What to expect. Including everything from your first day, to sleeping patterns, to how to position yourself for promotion and even an overview of the rig process
  • Other areas of opportunity that you may not have been aware of and where to look for them
  • Women on the rigs
  • And last but not least ? the #1 place for opportunity in the industry today!!! A frequently overlooked opportunity that is a goldmine for people who choose to pursue it

Over the years that I have worked on the rigs I have noticed trends that separate the people who do and don?t get jobs. The difference between the two is so small that anyone who understands what these companies are looking for can easily give themselves a major advantage over other applicants.

**** Before Reading How To Get A Job On The Rigs ****

I?ve spent the last two days looking for work and I only found one job I could apply for ? quite depressing for about 18 hours of work. I?m not sure if I am looking during a slow period or if I am looking in the wrong places in the wrong ways.

I?m just downloading your books now, so hopefully those will answer a few questions for me. I have actually got some work over the next two days, so I will probably get back on this properly at the weekend.

********** The Next Day **********

I could not wait for the weekend. I?ve just read through your book and I just wanted to say that it has been incredibly helpful. I did wonder why I could not find any entry level positions, but of course it makes perfect sense **member?s only info**! I lost a lot of momentum today, out of pure frustration, but reading your book has left me feeling much more motivated. Thank you.

Having a look at **member?s only info** also sounds like excellent advice, I think it would be perfect for interview confidence. I?m glad you mentioned **member?s only info**, which I will now definitely do!

I have had a peek at some people complaining about value for money on your site. I did smile. I?ve paid $215 to another company ? the information they provided was ok but they didn?t have the inside edge. If anything, I would say you are undercharging, compared to your competitors. It?s nice to know there are still some people on the planet who are not dominated by greed.

Awesome job, thanks!

********** The Next Day **********

I spent 18 hours over the two days previous and did not find a single job. Within 15 minutes of surfing your site, I was making applications :) I?m about to go do some more surfing to see what I can dig up (pun intended) heh

********** And The Day After That**********

I think I have actually trawled most of your site for info now, been feeling very motivated.

It?s strange, normally I really hate this process, but this time around, for some reason, I am quite enjoying it. Knowledge is power. I think knowing there is a decent sized pot of gold at the end of the rainbow is also helping with my motivation!

Thanks again for all your help.

The single most important point that I cover in my book ?

If you have no experience, opportunities are still available to you. I can explain to you why and where to look for these entry level jobs!

Understanding this one point alone is worth the purchase price of my book. Countless people give up on their pursuit of work in the oil and gas industry because they simply don?t understand how to get their foot in the door without experience.

Failing to understand a few key points is the only thing holding you back from getting a job. It certainly isn?t because you are less capable that the people currently working in the industry.

I know this for sure because I have seen some people get jobs in the industry that I thought would struggle to get a job anywhere. It is simply because there were a few factors in their favour and whether they were aware of it at the time or not, it was a contributing factor to them gaining employment.

The best part is?

I will give you a 60 day, 100% money back guarantee. That means you can have my book totally risk free. You have a full 60 days to apply the things that you learn in my book and if the information is not exactly what you needed to know to get a job on the rigs then all you have to do is ask and I will refund your purchase.

oil and gas jobs guarantee

Here is how the guarantee works

If you read my book and you?re not convinced it will help you, I want you to let me know and I?ll give you your money back, no questions asked. I can?t be any more fair than that. That way there?s no risk whatsoever to you.

Why is this the best action for you to take right now?

Buying my book is the best action you can take right now because of two factors coming together to put you in the perfect position to take advantage of a massive opportunity!

Number 1?

Is exactly what I was speaking about earlier. Overcoming the common misunderstandings about the industry as well as knowing the things that will put you in front of other applicants is absolutely vital to your success.

Number 2?

Is the fact that right now is a perfect time to be getting involved in the industry! If you look at the particular time in history that we are going through right now, society is pushing us to change our ways.

It has only been relatively recently that we have been able to harness the energy of methane gas and turn it into a usable power source. Prior to that we were limited to crude oil and as far as environmental impact goes, there is no comparison.

Drilling for methane gas has proven to be a far more sustainable practice than drilling for crude oil. Although we will find far more environmentally friendly energy sources in the future, the Coal Seam Gas industry is going to be HUGE over the next 30 years or so.

Given that the technology already exits to use gas as a power source and it is significantly less harmful to the environment (In use and in mining for it) than other resources, this boom is likely to continue for quite some time.

Not to mention, when compared to alternative natural resource mining practices, drilling for Coal Seam Gas is far more sustainable.

What does all that mean?

In short, this means that the future of the industry is very strong. There are not enough experienced workers to handle the ever increasing workload of the growing industry.

New entry level jobs are becoming available more and more often. To add to that, the growth of the industry is giving those who apply themselves the opportunity to progress quickly in their careers.

These agencies generally don?t come with guarantees so you could find yourself applying to more than one and spending even more.

Here is how this bonus will help you

The book answers the #1 most frequently asked question which is ?How do I get my foot in the door without experience??

The members area answers the #2 most frequently asked question about the oil and gas industry ?How do I find these drilling companies so I can apply for a job??

The problem that most people face when trying to get in the industry other than having no experience is that it is difficult to find drilling companies unless you know what you are looking for!

What people generally find when they attempt to look for available positions is a list of oil rig recruitment agencies which often charge hundreds of dollars for their services with no guarantee of employment.

There are a couple of reasons why agencies are not the best option which you will learn more about in my book. The best option is to go directly to the drilling companies and apply there.

So how do you do that if you don?t know who they are?

Easy?

Workontherigs.com members area gives you instant access to over 200 drilling companies worldwide!

Oil Rig Companies

All the companies are separated into countries where they operate so all that you need to do is look for the country that you want to work in. Each link gives access to the company website where you will find all office locations and contact details.

This is by far the most valuable part of the deal!

Insider tips and information from my book and a list of company names and contact details puts you in control rather than sitting around, hoping that a recruitment agency will get back to you.

Plus? Even more value

Oil Rig Questions

Also included in the members area is a ?Member?s Questions? section. This part of the members area was put together to make sure that no question goes unanswered.

If you have read my book and there is still something on your mind that I haven?t covered then all you have to do is post your question and your answer will appear soon after on the member?s questions page.

You will also have access to previously asked questions by other members so you even have the answers to questions you didn?t think to ask.

The inclusion of the Members Section Bonus makes this offer complete! You will have everything you need to start your new career. Soon, you too could be earning big wages and having 6 months of holidays a year!

More Bonuses

The Six Boy Scout Knots

jobs in oil gas bonus 02

One of the skills that I have learnt that has proven to be invaluable during my years on the rig is the ability to tie knots! To those who are already good at tying knots, this bonus might not seem worthwhile, but if you are like I was when I first started?

I guarantee you will need this little eBook. The only knot I could tie was my shoe laces, it was not only embarrassing when I was asked to tie something, it was also dangerous if I couldn?t do it properly. In ?The Six Boy Scout Knots? you will learn all the knots you will ever need to know to keep you out of trouble on the rigs. Of all the knot tying manuals I looked at when I was trying to learn, this was by far the easiest to follow.

Mystery Resource

Bonus number four is an extremely valuable resource! The only catch is, I can?t tell you what it is until you buy the book. Unless you are already in the industry there is no way that you would ever know about this resource.

oil and gas jobs bonus 03

If you are serious about getting a job on the rigs and want to put yourself ahead of other applicants, this resource will give you the edge that you are looking for!

I guarantee that if you choose to take advantage of this resource, that no other applicant competing for the job would have done the same. You may not have experience but you can make yourself noticed with this for sure!

Surviving Recruitment

Knowing what to do from the time you begin putting your resume together till your first day on the job is vitally important!

Job Interview Guide bonus 04

Very few people feel comfortable and confident with the interview process. A quick internet search will show you that there are lots of companies that offer job interview coaching to guide you through the process.

Might sound good but I hope you are prepared to pull out your wallet because these services range from $75 to $150 per hour!

After plenty of searching, Workontherigs.com was finally able to track down a company that will be able to help you through your job interview without charging you a fortune.

In fact?

I was able to twist the Managing Director?s arm into giving his book ?Surviving Recruitment? to Workontherigs.com members for FREE!

This eBook is normally sold for $29.95 and is designed to be a replacement for the interview coaching that would otherwise cost you $75 to $150 an hour. There are no strings attached, you get this valuable eBook totally FREE.

An unbelievable offer

Professional Resume Bonus 05

What I am about to show you is the most exciting update to the Workontherigs.com package and you won?t believe how good it is!

I was searching to find two things, one was the info about what to do in a job interview that you will find in ?Surviving Recruitment?. The other was a discount on professional resume services and I was lucky enough to find them both in the one place.

When I finally found what I was looking for, I found something that was sooooo much better than what I ever expected.

From my previous personal experience and then from further research I found that professionally written resumes cost anywhere between $300 and $500 depending on what you are after. I had hoped to find a company that would be willing to give my members something like a 15% discount.

Instead, not only did I find someone who was willing to give a 30% discount, they offered something that I couldn?t find anywhere else. Instead of your standard printed resume, they create an online ?eResume? that gives you options that you could never have with a printed resume.

Their eResume platform was so good and would easily stand out in a pile of resumes that I figured it was going to cost way more than a normal resume.

Instead? It was about half the price!

For a professionally written eResume they charge as little as $185 and they have promised a further 30% discount to all Workontherigs.com members.

The Workontherigs.com MEMBER?S ONLY PRICE for a professionally written eResume is ONLY $135. That?s a $55 discount on something that is already half the price of what you will find elsewhere.

***** Professionally Written eResume Testimonial *****

Thanks very much for the follow up. My eResume has turned out fantastic. I was amazed at how good they made me sound on paper and the standard was nowhere near what I could have achieved on my own, even if I had all the time in the world. I would recommend the eResume and of course Step Up in a heartbeat. I have already started spreading the word. As soon as I had purchased the package I had an email the next day from my consultant outlining our plan of action and exactly what I needed to do to get the ball rolling. Within a couple of days the basic idea was up and all that was left was to tweak it. The service was next to none and I am very thankful to Work-on-the-rigs.com for going to the trouble of finding these guys. To anyone thinking about it just go ahead and do it. You will see your value for money straight away. I really can?t say enough for them. Great service, great price and more importantly great people to deal with.

Thanks,

Steve

***** Response to answer given in the Member?s Questions *****

I just now checked the company list, and WOW! You certainly HAVE put in a LOT of time.

THANK YOU for all this information and advice you have provided me thus far. You are an exceptional person, I admire what you do. This world needs more people like you.

For me to have actually received such in depth and prepared replies from someone in regards to work, is beyond what I?ve ever been used to before. I?m so used to dealing with people who ONLY care about themselves and what benefits them. To be in contact with someone such as yourself, who is more than willing to set aside YOUR personal time to help ME? a perfect STRANGER to you?. speaks VOLUMES about who you are as a person. I want to say, truly, Thank You, Sir.

********** A Few Weeks Later **********

When I first heard about work on the rigs I too thought there was no way to get a foot in the door and the pay and time off sounded too good to be true. The information provided in this book is a first hand insight into what it takes to get the job. Without Matt?s help I would never have made it out there.

Percevirence and understanding what it takes are important but once you have the knowledge, you will succeed in the industry. This book is not just about how to get a job, it?s about how to make a career!

PS. Working on the rigs provided me with a lifestyle that you won?t find in your average 9 ? 5 job. Every 2 weeks I get a 2 week vacation. You work hard while you are there but then you have two weeks to unwind and do whatever you want.

PPS. People compare the rig lifestyle to the mining lifestyle but I believe they are totally different. Quite often you have to move to a particular place to get a job in the mines. On the rigs you have the freedom to live wherever you want and that to me is very important.

PPPS. The last thing I will leave you with is that when you are stuck out on a rig it is basically impossible to spend your money so you come home with the lot. I know lots of people who have worked on mines and got caught up in the lifestyle because there is no shortage of pubs in a mining town. If you choose to pursue rigs as a career you will be glad that you did!
