It gets you invited to lots of low-cost, family-friendly week-ends, with plenty of good food and drink. It introduces you to a huge network of friends in many different countries. The hanky-waving weirdo dancing opposite you might be a professor or a dustman - who cares? You all look the same in your bells and baldricks. You think they're funny? That's OK, they can laugh at themselves, just listen to the jingles they sing. Of course if you've got something better to do, they won't spoil your fun.jane of ravenglasshttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7971936711213357074.post-49862388122882204592009-06-13T23:13:54.388+01:002009-06-13T23:13:54.388+01:00Some interesting comments here, especially the one...Some interesting comments here, especially the one from the Morris Men themselves.

The crowd seemed to be fairly into it too, and a good time seemed to be had by all.

Of course we're deeply sorry to anyone who, by virtue of our presence and the festive atmosphere outside, wasn't able to sit inside and ignore us and *still* enjoy their beer. It must be maddening to know that there's something fun going on out in the world that you can't bring yourself to enjoy.

So thanks to all who supported us for the 30 minutes we altered the routine of your lives, and we're glad you enjoyed it.

And of course huge thanks to Jeff for the invitation!

Anyone who'd like their routine altered for a further 30 minutes (or, conversely, who'd like to know where to avoid having to be put through the trauma of seeing some of England's cultural identity) is more than welcome to join us on our Belgravia Tour on June 24th.

Maybe some view Morris dancers as social misfits on the same plain as beer tickers! Both groups seem pretty harmless to me.

What I find more puzzling is the comments that Morris is crap but the guys in blackface and sticks are cool (or is that just another form of Morris dancing?).

� Romney stresses economy as convention nears, A9
� Romney stresses economy as convention nears, A9
� A look at where the presidential race stands, A9
Few details are still known about President Obama�s visit to the Iowa State University campus this week.
Yet the ISU grounds are already full of chalked sidewalks alerting passersby of Obama�s visit to central campus around noon on Tuesday. ISU College Democrats held a volunteer event Thursday, which drew a packed crowd of students eager to help out, and there are whisperings on campus of Secret Service-member sightings.
Many students at ISU, who are still navigating campus and settling into their first week of classes, gave mixed reactions Friday afternoon when asked about Obama�s visit.
Zoe Woods, 18, is a freshman at ISU. She�s a registered Republican, but describes herself as an independent. And while she said she�s leaning toward voting for Obama in November, she said she doesn�t plan to attend his campaign event.
Obama was last in Ames during his 2008 campaign tour, first in February 2007 and then again in September and December of that year.
�It would be nice because he is the president of the United States, but I don�t really care I guess,� she said.
Woods, and many students like her at ISU who will vote for the first time this November, seemed less than enthused about Obama�s upcoming visit when asked about whether they plan to attend.
Austin Coakley, a sophomore, said he �plans on stopping by if it fits my schedule.�
�I didn�t really think it was a big deal I guess, but I might stop by to see what he has to say,� Coakley said. �I�m not a big fan of the candidates this year.�
Coakley�s friend Kyler Vande Berg, 19, said he hasn�t decided who he will vote for in November, but said he plans to go Obama�s appearance. He said he wasn�t surprised Obama chose ISU as part of his two-day college campus sweep next week, noting Iowa is still considered a swing state by both Obama and his presumptive opponent, Mitt Romney.
�Obviously, Iowa is going to be an important state in the upcoming election,� Vande Berg said, �and if he can persuade a lot of college students to vote for him, that will be a large amount (votes).�
Some students on campus still hadn�t heard about the event on Friday.
�I think it would be really cool to see the president in person, I had no idea about it until you told me,� said Natalie Prater, a freshman.
While she said she would like to see Obama speak, she�s still unsure about who she�ll vote for in November.
�I have no idea,� she said.
But for those on the front lines, getting students charged about Obama�s appearance has become a full-time job.
Abhishek Vemuri, the president of the ISU College Democrats, has worked over the last few days to recruit student volunteers to man ticket lines and promote the event.
It�s all hands on deck for the College Democrats, who have been chalking, flyering and speaking to lecture halls about the commander in chief�s visit. Volunteers took their message to the streets this weekend, visiting bars on Welch Avenue to connect with students.
�There�s a lot of excitement,� Vemuri said. �It�s only the second week of school and the president is coming to town.�

What is Programmable Logical Controller (PLC)?
A programmable logical controller (PLC) or programmable controller is a digital computer used for automation of industrial processes, such as control of machinery operation on factory assembly lines. Unlike general-purpose computers, the PLC is designed for multiple inputs and output arrangements, extended temperature ranges, immunity to electrical noise, and resistance to vibration and impact. Programs to control machine operations are typically stored in battery- backed or non-volatile memory.
Why PLC TrainingPLC (Programmable logical controller) is the most prevalent Industrial Automation based technology that caters to the needs of majority of the industries in automation. There is no industry with automated processes in its shop floor which does not involve PLC and hence PLC Training is the most important need. Hence every industry having automated processes look for engineers who have not only thorough conceptual knowledge in micro and macro aspects of PLC but also hands on practical experience essential for efficient operations in the industry.
The subject area of PLC Training in automation is like an ocean. An aspirant in industrial Automation has to learn the skills through PLC Training in many logical and programming strategies to learn and also implement them in the process areas. For such an expertise, there is a great need for the qualified engineers to be practically trained in the core areas. Every PLC involves software and has its own special features most relevant to the operations chosen for automation. The software and hardware designs are chosen depending upon the specific and special needs and they vary among different brands.
PLC Training in Wiztech – a valuable opportunityWiztech Automation has, working in the PLC training arena for years, developed the best of facilities by equipping itself with highly qualified Faculty members with knowledge in current technological aspects and also the futuristic development possibilities in them. Wiztech has excellent Lab facilities which support the faculty members to give their best in training the students. PLC training in Chennai, therefore highlights Wiztech as a well acclaimed Training organization. Wiztech knows the current PLC Training needs matching with the industry's requirements and accordingly trains the candidates meeting with the latest technological knowledge and skills in PLC Training, so that the engineers become industry-ready.
Industries always look for current trends and up-gradations required to be embraced, so as to be always in the frontline, successfully combating the competition in the field. For this, they need to employ engineers with thorough knowledge and practical hands on experience through PLC Training in industrial automation and also upgrade the skills of their existing technological personnel matching with the requirements in the field from time to time.
Get that in Wiztech which you miss elsewhereWiztech Automation chisels the qualified engineers by providing them with the required current knowledge and skills with hands on experience in industrial automation, turning them into professional craftsmen in PLC Training. It is therefore easier for Wiztech trained candidates to be able to clinch job opportunities than in comparison with the others. Normally engineering students learn the concepts and their application areas, but would not have an opportunity in the institutions to practically apply their conceptual knowledge in the real time situations. Here Wiztech performs its role best in training by providing the student candidates the feel of industrial machinery working in conjunction in the lab practicals.

Sonus celebrates five years this Summer and is easily one of the highlights in the Croatian rave calendar. The team behind it are a collaboration between Cosmopop, the German rave promoters responsible for Time Warp, and their Croatian counterparts, We Love Sound. We catch up with Cosmopop's Robin Ebinger to get a window behind the scenes of what is fast becoming one of the scene's most important destination festivals.
Ibiza Voice: Tell us the story of your involvement in Sonus?
Robin Ebinger: we started to look into options in Croatia in 2009, but didn't start work until the beginning of 2013. Our friend Dalibor Zjačić from the We Love Sound Crew approached us [about] Sonus and the venue on Pag Island. He and his team promoted a previous small version [of the festival] there the year before. We were right away fascinated by the idea of producing a festival on the island in open air clubs next to the sea. So in 2013 we joined forces and the first multi day edition took place.
Describe the scene in Croatia for us?
Croatia has a huge number of different festivals taking place. There's something for everyone. The main difference is the setting: you can dance through the sunset and sunrise, accompanied by the sun, the stars and the moon - always in the fresh air, with a beautiful panoramic view over the sea and the Croatian limestone mountains. It makes such a difference [being] in the open air and the sun, it really gives you extra energy.
Does Croatia present any unique challenges for promoters?
Planning events abroad is always difficult. The first Sonus year was pretty tough. It was a new venue and a new format. Five days and five nights parallel in two clubs and boat parties, hardly any sleep and a lot to learn. There's a different language and culture and of course we had to match the German mentality with the Balkans [laughs]. In the last night we had heavy weather conditions. Once there is heavy rain or a storm you need to react quickly. You need to secure the technical devices in case they are not water proof, depending on the intensity of the weather you need to stop the festival and send the people back to Novalja. Since we can't control the weather, outdoor events are always risky. That's why we chose August, when sunshine is reliable.
There is constant talk of Croatia being the new Ibiza, is that true or is it something different in its own right?
The country will expand, the infrastructure is growing and the local people improve on the needs of the guest but I can't see Croatia becoming the new Ibiza. Every place has its own character and magic.
It feels like Croatia has experienced a 'gold rush' of international festival promoters..
There was certainly no gold rush but a wishful thinking by promoters and media alike. I am not sure whether we have witnessed the peak. Some of the events have already disappeared and the others have to struggle until the last day to sell the tickets. However, this year seems to be funny with many festivals all over Europe. The fans have a boundless number of festivals to choose from.
What are your predictions for the future of dance music festivals?
There will be festivals that make extensive use of technological progression. This will not only mean intensifying the festival experience but also the real-time simulation of reality. There will be more technical devices and things that will distract people from the original essence of festival: listening to music and meeting people. On the other hand there will also be "pure" festivals that cater for these basic motifs; they will concentrate on sound and music without the thrills and frills.
What's your take on live streaming? Some events now put as much emphasis on video streaming as they do on the live experience itself
From a marketing perspective live streaming is one of the most effective tools of online promotion for festivals right now. Crowds at the festival itself are more influenced by the experience they have right in that moment and might stay and listen to an artist they don't know yet if the atmosphere is right. Whereas online, streams can be a great tool to present an underground or up-and-coming artist in the context of an established festival brand. If you're hooked watching a DJ perform live on your phone or laptop, you're definitely thinking about experiencing the real thing at the next opportunity.
If money was no object and you had a time machine at your disposal, what would be your ideal night out?
That is easy to answer. I would love to travel back to the early rave days and join a party in the legendary Hacienda in Manchester to dance to the sounds of a young artist. who was back then, right at the very beginning of his career: Laurent Garnier.

There will be some women who will not relate to this post and for that, I'm grateful. I will say, however, that this post is important even if it doesn't resonate with you, as some of your friends and sisters may very well be in this muck and they might be very confusing, very emotionally draining to you. This is a key to seeing inside the fog you may feel when with them.
The other day, I woke up and had grown at least 3 feet. I walked around, taking my kids to school and going to meetings and working out, and just kept thinking, "Why am I so tall?" And the chairs upon which I sat felt so small and so, well, real. The steering wheel felt so cold and hard, so vinyl.
I kept thinking that I had snapped, only to be comforted by the - probably untrue - statement, "Crazy people never think they're crazy." And, then it hit me.
I've spent the last 15 years not in my body. And I've spent the last 10 years since the birth of my first in a literal haze of postpartum recovery. I could spend this entire post writing trauma porn about what happened to me, the long line of events that would haunt you and still haunt me. Hauntings that I'm sure only scrape the top lid of what many of you have experienced and certainly many other women have.
I am not unique.
And that's the purpose of this post. It's to be totally honest about the fact that many of us women are bravely facing a total absence of self each day. Certainly we have moments wherein there is a peek-a-boo of presence and embodiment, but many of us have never really anchored deep in a real way after our kids were born - and perhaps ever in our lives.
Sure, we make decisions and operate seemingly normally, but there's something bleak and unanswered beneath the surface. And it's hard to detect because our society would tell us that that level of bleakness would mean that the afflicted woman would be sitting on her couch with rotting bananas surrounding her greasy hair as her smelly MuMu's latest hole sneaks a peek of a leaking, shriveled boob. Meaning, it would be an obvious Hell.
However, instead, the amazing creatures that we are learn how to perform. We learn how to get through. We learn how to leave our bodies so we aren't the MuMu-ed illustration of our souls. We learn how to grasp just enough of life to think - and have others believe - we're awake. We attach ourselves to identities of other moms. We find solace in those seemingly brave enough to complain and make light of the torture motherhood can be when you are not in your body.
Yet. We aren't in our bodies.
This is relevant right now. And I feel the need to be very honest about it because I believe - and I know you know - that women are the ticket to the change the world needs right now. This is urgent. And I know that even though we may be organizing beautifully and doing everything we can, if you are being triggered and if you are not in your body, you will not be as an effective activist as your children and your community and the lives of the oppressed need you to be.
Now, alert alert: Action and organizing will soothe you. It will make you feel alive and connected. But, I can tell you from experience that if you are not fully embodied, even that sense of aliveness is not enough. You won't make the decisions that you are capable of making or think of the solutions that very well could be The Solution. It's just not physiologically possible. Your brain isn't in that space and there's no way to force it there just by will. And I will emphasize this with compassion and not shame by confessing that I created this business, had it in full operation for 4 years, and made big mistakes that I'm unraveling and fixing today with the sort of pain and humility no one wants to experience - ALL WHILE NOT IN MY BODY.
And I had no idea. I just didn't. I was operating and doing and trying and forcing and soothing and believing and hoping and fighting, but I wasn't anchored. And I made many errors. Errors that I think, as activists each of us, we can avoid while in this fight in front of us.
So, today, while I sit up at night in my new skin, hearing my kids coughs and laughter with new and awake ears, I am here to say that my first line of action is to get my shit together and to stay in my body. That in itself is a privilege. That I can write this post. That I can wake up in a house with a roof. That I can walk outside. That I can read and think. And while some people might tell you to drop your story and get over your own trauma and triggers, I would beg instead that you go really deep and you ask that story what it needs. And then you take responsibility for those needs right now, so that you can extend yourself without depletion and with rational, intelligent, embodied action.
The tricky part here is the subject of postpartum depression and it's relationship to disassociating. I am not going to get into the PPD subject in this post, because it's definitely not in my scope of knowledge other than personal experience. What I do know about it is that even with all the hotlines and PSAs and information out there today about it, none of it ever felt like an option to me. Probably because I wasn't in my body. And probably because it felt homogenized and clinical. I don't know. I just know that none of it felt safe and none of it prompted me to do the work I needed to do. Exposure started it. And then I got help, the professional help (not bookstore help) I needed - and STILL need.
I believe that the start to this sort of change can begin with rooting yourself into the primal, most fundamental aspects of your nervous system. Obviously, you will also want to listen to qualified professionals who will rightly suggest therapy and medication, but while you pursue those modalities there is another component of healing that begins right there in that home you call your body. With the animal in you.
Get in touch with your pelvic floor. Heal your center, the way you deserve. Get moving. Screw the idea that fitness is for being fit. No, it's my fight to be in my body enough to be the activist I need to be. Be willing to do that work, each day, each breath. I can't explain the magic therein any more than saying that I believe it can support your healing in ways untapped. When you stabilize your pelvis, when you give your spine it's resiliency back, and when you are not stressed from pain, your nervous system will start to respond to stress differently. It will behave more powerfully.
Maslow's hierarchy of needs states that you can't become self-actualized as a human being if your basic needs aren't met. Isn't that what we are all fighting for in the world right now? Isn't that what we need to be active about? Your body is a microcosm of that incredible truth. Start with your basic needs, be an activist in your body right now, today.
99% of women I know and love are deeply triggered by the events in the world right now. And, like you, I am trying to figure out what I can do. And this is what I can do. This is my service to this time. To be a guide to the part of you that can instigate embodiment and power.
So. From what I've heard from current members, the strength challenge offered here at MommaStrong helps them during the sh*t of life. It teaches them a way of being in their body that they've never experienced. And, best yet, it gives them space to discover a way out of that which holds them down. If someone you know is sharing this post with you it's not because they think you'll be excited to join another bikini body burn deal or that you need to workout. It's because she believes in you and she knows, like herself, that you deserve a foundation for staying put and showing up.
In honor of the stuff we all are facing and in deference to my piece in it, I'm giving my programs away for free for a few days so that you know I'm not trying to exploit you and so that there are no barriers, real or felt, to the basic needs of your body.
You can join me on Monday, Feb. 6th for 28-days of learning how to be in your body. Here's the link. You'll have the option to grab it for free or to pay the normal super low cost (to cover operations) of $2. You pick the option that works for you. All I want is you to get in your body and I know I can help there.
Click here to join me on Monday, February 6th for 28 Days of daily workouts that will help you learn how to stay put (The Hook).
Registration will end on Sunday, Feb. 5th at noon CST. But, the earlier you get in, the more time I have to prepare you and get our ducks in working order.
Whew. Let's do this.
Oh, how do you know if you are out of your body? Good question. Here are some possible symptoms:
- You feel extremely irritated by the needs others express, especially your children. "Mom" will feel overstimulating and abrasive.
- You are swirly and abstract in thought and talking
- You feel a magnetic, insatiable urge to use substances or things that both make you numb and also make you feel alive (binge tv, alcohol, substances, toxic people)
- You aren't eating regularly or normally - hunger feels like a distant and unimportant cue (you eat too much or not enough)
- Your sleep is disturbed (other than by children) and you don't even know when you're tired
- You are not communicating with friends and family openly, honestly, and consistently.
- You have morbid thoughts (it has to be talked about)
- Your emotions are all or nothing (not including normal hormonal shifts). You are easy to cry, feel defensive, feel invaded, feel isolated, etc.
These are just a few.
And here are numbers for getting professional help right now, today. This is what can often be called the "Thousand Pound Phone Call." Feeling that is a sign you need to call. If the phone feels heavy, hug your fear and pick it up. No one will take your kids and you will not be harmed and you will still be in control, I promise. Exposure is the ticket.

@ Joan My father was a southern boy and an avid gardener and rather than build his beans something to climb would plant his green beans in the same hill as his corn so that the beans would climb the corn stalks. So simple and a lot less work.
Aug 18, 2014
These green beans were hardy and produced many pickings. The taste was exactly what I had hoped for and I can't wait to plant them again next year. One thing I will do for next time is to put them on canes to climb, they were not a bush type for me.

Nice Cream for Breakfast. How great does that sound?! This ebook shows you that it is totally okay to have nice cream (or other sweets) for breakfast.
It was created by my sweet friend Lara from Vanillacrunnch (who is from Switzerland- how cool is that!?). She used to eat like the majority of us: pints of dairy-filled ice cream, buttery cupcakes, and milk chocolate bars galore. That is, until she discovered banana ice cream. Banana "nice cream" (as it's called by the majority of bloggers and Instagrammers) is frozen bananas blended up in a blender (with little to no liquid). It tastes like banana flavored ice cream. It's so sweet and creamy. Lara loved nice cream from the moment it first entered her mouth (same girl!!) since it's not only delicious but also nutritious!
My favorite "nice" cream: blended frozen bananas and peanut butter.
As Lara writes in her introduction, banana nice cream is great because bananas "contain lots of natural sugars, fiber, potassium and vitamins." Add a little cacao powder to your nice cream and you have yourself a chocolate-y treat that is high in fiber and free from refined sugar and dairy. YUM.
Lara created this ebook to show that dessert can actually be good for you (when it's made with the right ingredients). Her book is divided into six sections (not including the introduction): Raw Treats, Nicecream & Icecream, Baked Goods, Smoothies & Jars & Bowls, Puddings & Mousse, and Pancakes. There are 55 pages and 47 recipes.
Before we get any further into the review, I just wanted to let you know that you can get Lara's ebook HERE. And guess what!? Lara rocks and is giving all of you 50% off her ebook so it is $2.50 instead of $4.99. A STEAL in my opinion! Just use the code "vanillacrunnch" at checkout.
My Baking Bonanza: Lara's chocolate vanilla swirl cupcakes along with her chocolate chip cookie dough bites (which I baked at 350 degrees F for 8 minutes). I also baked chocolate coconut cookies and peanut butter coconut cookies with recipes from my friend Demeter (The Beaming Baker) as well as my favorite banana bombs.
For $2.50, GET THE BOOK. Seriously, that's less than a coffee at Starbucks and you get wayyyyy more out of the ebook than the coffee. Lara has worked hard on it, as you can see from the beautiful photography and well-put-together recipes. Some of my favorite aspects of the ebook are…
- The beautiful photography. There's a nice picture for every single recipe, and all of the photos showcase the food very well. Seriously, Lara's photos are photography #goals.
- Most of the recipes contain simple ingredients that most people have like coconut milk, dates, cacao powder, and OREOS. Four recipes have Oreos in or on them.
- However, there are recipes with ingredients that you might not have like rice malt syrup, hazelnuts, macadamia nuts, and açai powder. You can buy these ingredients on Amazon though. The Chocolate Tofu Cupcakes with Surprise Frosting (pg. 34) contain beetroot and cranberry powder in the frosting but I'm sure you can leave that out.
- A lot of the recipes are simple but sweet, like peanut butter cups, bounty bars, and vegan Nutella so you can easily satisfy your sweet craving.
- Almost all the recipes are VEGAN and GLUTEN-FREE (there is yogurt in the Seven Layer Power Breakfast (pg. 46) but you can just sub it for vegan yogurt).
The Raspberry Almond Smoothie topped with banana slices and Dark Chocolate Berry Granola.
The only complaints I have about the ebook are a) that I wish the titles of each recipe were on the top of each page instead of the bottom so you automatically knew which recipe you were looking at and b) some typos (but I know sometimes those can't be helped!). The pros most definitely outweigh the cons, though, and I am so impressed with Lara for creating an ebook as I can't even imagine how much work it took!
The Dark Chocolate Vegan Nutella (pg. 16). I didn't like it much because I don't like hazelnuts, but I thought I'd at least give it a try. If you like Nutella, you'll probably like this spread! I wouldn't know though because I don't know what Nutella tastes like- I've never tasted it before (believe it or not)!
I sampled a diverse selection of her recipes (almost all of them actually!) so I could say with complete assurance that the whole ebook is good! The ebook is full of perfect healthier recipes for any meal of the day.
My favorite recipes in the book are (in order of appearance)… Highlighted in blue are recipes you need to try ASAP.
- Nut-Free Oreo Cheesecake (pg. 5). I really like Oreos so I loved this cheesecake (it was more like a pie, actually). The crust was AMAZEBALLS.
- Chocolate Caramel Pretzel (Brownie) Bites (pg. 10). I loved the caramel in this recipe. I used almonds, and I didn't put pretzels on top because I didn't have any.
- Raw Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups (pg. 11). They taste like Reese's peanut butter cups but are wayyyy healthier! I loved them since I love chocolate and peanut butter.
- Raspberry-Almond Smoothie (pg. 22). It's super simple and yummy.
- Dark Chocolate and Vanilla Marble Loaf Cake a.k.a. the recipe I am sharing with you today (pg. 30). I made them into cupcakes. They were sweet and good!
- Classical Green Smoothie with Cranberries (pg. 37). I love green smoothies, and this one is no exception. I used almond milk instead of coconut milk.
- Death by Chocolate smoothie (pg. 39). Bananas and chocolate- need I say more!? I didn't get a picture of this one because it was gone (in my belly) like two minutes after I made it.
- Sunday Oatmeal (pg. 42) minus açai because I didn't have it. Like the chocolate smoothie, this oatmeal was gone before I could take a picture of it.
The Classical Green Smoothie with Cranberries (minus the toppings).
This ebook would be a good, cheap birthday or Easter/ post Lent present for someone to kickstart clean eating!
Today I am sharing with you one of Lara's recipes- the "Dark Chocolate and Vanilla Marble Loaf Cake" – but made into cupcakes!
Dark Chocolate and Vanilla Marble Loaf Cupcakes from the "Nicecream for Breakfast" ebook
by Lara Delilah of VanillaCrunnch
I made 8 cupcakes
- 1 1/2 cup coconut flour (PB&E Note: I subbed homemade oat flour for the coconut flour and it worked fine!)
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar
- 1/2 cup warm water
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 3 tbsp cacao powder
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
- First, mix all the dry ingredients in a medium bowl except for the cacao powder.
- Add the liquid ingredients and mix until well combined.
- Depending on the brand of your coconut flour you might need to add more almond milk if too dry or more coconut flour if too liquid.
- Divide the dough in 2 separate parts, and mix the cacao powder in one of them
- Randomly pour in the two doughs alternately in
an oiled cake tinlined cupcake tins. Bake for about 40-4520-25 minutes and wait for your personal marbled cupcakes to come out of the oven.
- I topped my cupcakes with a chocolate ganache I made by melting 1/4 cup chocolate chips with a splash of almond milk in the microwave for 30 seconds. Then I mixed the ganache together until it was smooth and spooned it onto the cupcakes. Mmm.
Whew, that was a long post. Thanks for reading, and make sure to snag a copy of Lara's ebook and check out her blog and her incredible Instagram!!
Here's to the weekend! Make it a great one!

I can not tell you how many times I have actually heard that the weight loss strategies for women are various from those of males. Yes there may be minor pieces of a weight loss program that may have to be customized for each gender, but the basics are the very same no matter your gender.
Look For The Finest Fat Loss Programs In Port Hadlock WA Here
Keep in mind to always stroll in love and forgiveness to everybody, always obeying God's Word so you don't hinder His best will for your life. But if you don't read His Word how will you understand what to comply with? Please read His Word daily so you will understand what to follow, therefore fulfilling His will for your life.
The Hollywood Stars Diets: The well-known South Beach Diets, consisting of esp. diet that is for very rich individuals that likewise have a great deal of time to spare. Not everybody can spend for personal fitness instructors and even the time to provide.
Think About Managing Weight?
Don't leave unhealthy but tempting deals with in your house. You can not eat food that you do not have, so make sure to keep just healthy foods in your kitchen that will assist you stay slim. It will be far less appealing and you will not eat as much of it if you make it tough to get your hands on the high calorie junk food.
Diet Tips Bundled
Do not become consumed with the scale. Since the outcomes are not immediate, weighing yourself a lot might prevent you. Exercising builds muscle, which is much heavier than fat. The very best method to evaluate whether or not your weight reduction plan is working is to take a look at how well your clothes is now fitting.
It isn't really simply a matter of how much you weigh, it is a matter of taking an accurate evaluation of where you are right now. You should go visit the physician to make sure that you are healthy enough to worry your body. Because their body cannot manage the strain, there are lots of people who can get started in a weight loss program just to discover out that they cannot complete it. Also, discover your true weight and get your body mass index (BMI) number. Get some measurements like your hip-to-waist ratio and your body fat percentage. It isn't needed to have all these, however it will help you to understand where you began.
Workout Plan Which You Love
The safest way to slim down is gradually. Certain diet plan plans and weight loss programs make it easy to drop lots of pounds in just a couple of weeks, but this is not a healthy method to go. It is quite most likely that you will just end up acquiring all these pounds back within a couple of months. You may even end up weighing more than you did initially.
Here are some easy ideas that you can try. Standing burns more than two times the quantity of calories than sitting. Now simply count the things that you do while sitting – watching TELEVISION, listening to music, surfing web, checking out a book or paper, and there must be lot more. So by just doing these activities standing, you can burn double the calories that you are currently burning. In reality specific activities like enjoying a live match, or a listening a peppy song, can be taken pleasure in far more while standing, and responding to it than standing!
The Port Hadlock Washington Weight Loss Programs You May Depend On
Have ACTIVE Pastimes! Simply 30 to 60 minutes of exercise per day isn't really enough. And moving from bed to chair, to couch, to dining table, and back to bed is not a healthy method to live. Try a Wii or movement sensing unit type gaming console that lets you take pleasure in active enjoyable video games with good friends and family. Plan weekend journeys, dance, play sports, the list is limitless. Get out of the rut you are in, and you'll have fun as well as losing weight.Do these things and you will drop weight.

LINCOLN PARK — A pimp and two of his associates have been charged in the shooting death of one prostitute and the wounding of another during a bloody confrontation outside a Lincoln Park luxury apartment building over the weekend, police said Wednesday.
Prosecutors say surviving victims have accused Tony Ashe, 38, of opening fire on three women in a parked car in front of 2430 N. Lakeview Ave. late Sunday in what they describe as retribution against his former girlfriend. The woman had Ashe arrested for battery after she tried to leave him in the fall, police spokesman Patrick Camden said.

The Effect of Attitude toward the Elderly on Behavior toward an Older Adult.
Sinnott, Jan D.; And Others
Many people hold negative attitudes toward older adults, and these attitudes often are associated with negative behavior toward the old. To explore the behavioral correlates of attitudes toward the elderly, 105 male and female college students, with a mean age of 24.5 years, participated in a two-phase experiment. During phase one, all subjects completed four attitude scales: Tuckman-Lorge Attitude Scale (TL); Semantic Differential (SD); Adjective Checklist (ACL); and Tuckman-Lorge Attitude Scale Revised (TLR). During phase two, those with the highest and lowest positive and negative attitudes (40 subjects) were exposed for a 5-minute period to a structured social situation which involved potential interaction with a 73-year-old female confederate. The interactions were videotaped through a two-way mirror. Following taping, subjects completed the Ammons Quick Test as a measure of behavior and IQ. An analysis of the results of the tests and of the behavior ratings of the tapes showed that only the TL, the TLR, and ACL correlated significantly with one another. Sex was the only demographic correlate of attitude, with more men than women considering negative ACL adjectives as inappropriate for elders. Behavior in the structured situation was only slightly related to general attitudes as measured by the TL, TLR, or the ACL, in that individuals with positive attitudes produced more positive behaviors than negative individuals. The sum of behaviors was significantly correlated with age, suggesting that the older the subjects the more positive their behaviors. Although general attitude scales were not useful in predicting behavior, context-specific behavior predictions might be possible using specific attitude items. (BL)

MP3100 HV Multi Source SACD Player
The MP 3100 HV is T+A's latest and most sophisticated multi-media player. The basic design philosophy stems from the MP 3000 HV, but the MP 3100 HV is now capable of carrying out the full signal processing of DSD bitstream data in addition to processing PCM data to impeccable standards. This extensive development was necessitated by the machine's new integral disc mechanism: an SACD drive which is a completely new development, featuring the very latest decoder, and capable of reading CD (PCM 44.1 kHz) and SACD (DSD 64 2.8 MHz) discs at the highest possible quality. The other digital sources, both integral and external, also benefit from this new improvement. As in the MP 3000 HV, PCM data is converted using our outstanding double differential quadruple converter for all the digital signal processing. DSD data are handled by the unique analogue true 1-bit DSD converter from the PDP 3000 HV, which processes the DSD data in native form as a bitstream rather than converting them.
This makes it possible to reproduce DSD data up to DSD 512, as delivered by the USB input of the digital connecting board, to the highest level of quality. The machine's streaming client takes the form of the new T+A high-res streaming board, which provides maximum resolution as well as the facility to access various music services, Internet radio, inclusion in the home network via LAN and WLAN, USB Master Mode and HD streaming from network servers. The tuner offers FM, FM-HD and DAB+ capability, and delivers excellent sound. The MP 3100 HV also includes a high-quality Bluetooth streaming module for transferring music from mobile devices. The MP 3000 HV and MP 3100 HV, or even an entire HV system, are controlled using the FD 100 radio remote control handset or the T+A Control App.

PDP 3000 HV DSD/PCM Player
The PDP 3000 HV is the most sophisticated player in the HV series, and has been developed specifically to reproduce high-resolution audio data without any trace of compromise. For this reason we have equipped the machine with a uniquely superior disc mechanism which reads CD and SACD media perfectly, and transfers their data to its superb PCM and DSD converters. To convert PSM data we are using our superb Double-Differential Quadrupel Converter and for the conversion of DSD data up to DSD 512 we have even develop a new technology: the unique T+A True 1-bit DSD Converter, a genuine analogue single bit converter. Since this unique converter concept is ideal for use with external sources, we have also designed the PDP 3000 HV to operate as a DAC, featuring seven digital inputs! This technology is unparalleled on the world market and explains the huge number of excellent reviews for our DPD 3000 HV.

PDP 3100HV Integrated Amplifier
The PDP 3100 HV is a further development of the PDP 3000 HV, and most of its sub-assemblies are identical. The immediately obvious difference is the pair of VU meters in the front panel, which display the power generated per channel in logarithmic form in Watts into 4 Ohms. A revision of the pre-amplifier section (D.C. coupling) has brought an additional improvement in sound quality. A further development is the redesigned analogue mains section and voltage power supply, which is similar to that of the A 3000 HV. This makes it possible to connect the supplementary PS 3000 HV mains section in order to gain a further increase in stability and performance of the power supply system as a whole. The additional unit provides an extra 1800 Watt of supply power, enabling the system to control even the most difficult loudspeakers without effort, so that they can unfold the best possible sound quality. As an option the PDP 3000 HV and PDP 3100 HV can also be fitted with High-End phono pre-amplifier modules which feature different circuit topologies to suit MM or MC systems. It is also possible to install the analogue signal processor module which has been developed for the P 3000 HV to provide channel-separate tone and loudness functions. The all-metal F3001 infra-red remote control handset is supplied as standard.

(APM Parametric eq/tone processor module £1,888)
P 3000 HV Preamplifier
The P 3000 HV is the audiophile High-End preamplifier of the series, and represents the universal control centre for a High End Stereo system consisting of HV separates. It is equipped with unique, newly developed technologies and innovative circuit designs. It's measured results, specification and sound quality represent the limit of what is physically feasible. The components and materials employed are uniformly of top quality, without any hint of compromise, and the workmanship of the case sets standards which are unmatched even by much more expensive equipment. The P 3000 HV's uncompromising design is of symmetrical double-mono construction. Both balanced and unbalanced sockets are available as outputs. There are four balanced inputs, input No. 4 can be operated in surround (pass-through) mode in order to use the power amplifier for the front channels of a surround decoder. The analogue and digital mains power supplies are completely separate from each other, and even feature separate mains sockets.HV-Link (HV data bus), LAN socket, trigger input, RC-in for E-2000 and an ground terminal are also present.
An analogue signal processor module which not only offers tone and loudness functions operating separately for each channel, but also features three narrow-band parametric equalizers which are capable of effectively damping room resonances in the range from 20 Hz to 500 Hz. The net result is that superb sound quality can be obtained even in difficult rooms.
The P 3000 HV is equipped with a high quality headphone amplifier with dual current capability and is supplied complete with the F 3001 infrared remote control unit. Upon request the P 3000 HV can be fitted with High-End phono preamplifiers, which possess different circuit topologies for MM or MC pick-up systems.

A 3000 HV Power Amplifier
The A 3000 HV is the ideal power amplifier and complement to the P 3000 HV pre-amplifier. It is designed as a stereo power amplifier, but can also be configured to work in mono mode, in which guise it is capable of delivering twice the current and in which it doubles the pure Class-A mode. Thanks to HV technology, this powerhouse offers superb sound characteristics as well as incredible power and performance: a standard which is unsurpassed even by much more expensive amplifiers. The principle of splitting a High-End system into separate pre-amplifier and power amplifier gave our development team the opportunity to implement the finest possible circuit designs and technologies without having to take into account space considerations and case restrictions. This applies both to the electronic components and the mechanical design of the case, since – if the aim is to attain the best possible sound – a preamplifier's requirements are fundamentally different from those of an power amplifier: preamplifiers process relatively small signals, and the crucial aspect of their design is the avoidance of induced and other interference; power amplifier, on the other hand, have to cope with relatively large signals, and the stability of the power supply, its current delivery capacity and performance independent of load are much more important.
Hi-Fi News Review
PS 3000 HV Power Supply
The PS 3000 HV is a supplementary mains unit which was developed specifically for the A 3000 HV power amplifier and the PA 3100 HV integrated amplifier. Both deliver more than 500 Watts of power into 4 Ohms, and at such a high level of sound quality and performance that simply increasing the output power – and with it the voltage – produces no significant improvement in sound. Research and development work in high-performance amplifiers – including the M10 and S10 – and the development of the HV design philosophy which flowed from this work, have shown clearly and unambiguously that the stability of the voltage and current supplied by a mains unit is of major and even crucial importance to the sound quality of power amplifiers. From this T+A have drawn the only rational conclusion, and developed a supplementary external power supply. The principle is ingenious, and functions in the following way: if the PS 3000 HV is connected to the A 3000 HV or PA 3100 HV using the special PowerLink with M 23 high-current connectors, the A 3000 HV's or PA 3100 HV internal power supply is used to supply energy to the input stages and the high-voltage amplifier; much lower power is required for this part of the system, and as a direct result the interference generated in the A 3000 HV or PA 3100 HV itself is much lower. The external PS 3000 HV supplies the energy for the output stages, i.e. it is responsible for the high currents required by the power output stages. With an output of 1200 VA the PS 3000 HV is substantially more powerful than the mains unit of the A 3000 HV or PA 3100 HV itself, and can also call upon twice the reservoir capacity. The net result is a substantial improvement in the current delivery capacity and stability of the system as a whole.

Lawrence Olum made his fourth straight MLS start Friday at centerback for Sporting Kansas City, but his evening didn't last long.
All-Star Matt Besler, who missed three games after undergoing an appendectomy June 8, returned to action Tuesday for the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open quarterfinal win against the Dayton Dutch Lions, but he was not in the starting lineup against the Chicago Fire.
And Besler replaced Olum in the 19th minute after Olum suffered a groin strain.Sporting KC also is dealing with injuries to Bobby Convey, Paulo Nagamura, Korede Aiyegbusi, Cyprian Hedrick and Jon Kempin, the homegrown reserve goalkeeper who broke his ankle in training last week.
• Sporting Kansas City announced before Friday's game that it had waived midfielder Luke Sassano.
Sassano, 26, appeared in 10 regular-season MLS matches for the club and scored his only goal in a 4-1 win at FC Dallas last season.
The oft-injured Sassano played for the New York Red Bulls from 2008-10, appearing in 38 games and making 25 starts.
He was selected by the Los Angeles Galaxy in the MLS Re-Entry Draft after the 2010 season and traded to Sporting KC for the rights to Frankie Hejduk.
• The Sprint Plaza at Livestrong Sporting Park took on an X Games feel before and after Friday's game as the Monster Energy BMX Stunt Show took over.
A group of Australian stunt riders — Joe Scarborough, Todd Meyn, Shannon Farrugia and Thomas Gunn — performed half-pipe tricks and assorted other gravity-defying stunts.
