Supply And Demand Fundamentals of Crude Oil
Regardless of which side you are on in the peak oil and climate change debates, it is important that you are equipped with a good understanding of the fundamental factors driving the supply and demand of crude oil which is arguably the most important energy source we currently have until an alternative can be found.
A recent overview by Morgan Stanley which is summarized by Zero Hedge (full article here) provides a pretty good primer on crude oil. Below are the key highlights of everything you wanted to know about crude oil fundamentals, but were afraid to ask.
Crude oil fundamental – the pricing of oil
Pricing of oil is complex and multi-factorial, including fundamental factors (such as simple supply and demand and seasonality), macro factors (such as the relative strength of the US dollar) and risk premiums (such as when war breaks out in an oil producing country disrupting production).
Pricing of a barrel of oil varies from location to location, driven by crude quality, geographical and transportation factors. For example, oil produced in Canada is regularly sold at a structural discount to prevalent oil prices due to its lack of ability to ship it to the east (Canada's industrial heartland) or west (presumably to be shipped to the Far East) and limited capacity to ship to the US to the south.
Crude oil produced from different areas also has different qualities (light versus heavy oil, sulfur content, etc.). Most refineries are designed to refine certain types of oil and cannot easily switch to processing different types.

Overall global crude oil demand
- The biggest consumers are the US (19.3 mmb/d) and China (10.5 mmb/d)
- Non-OECD countries constitutes 50% of oil demand growth in 2013.
- Demand growths are relatively flat (N. America) to slightly negative (OECD Europe).
- Emerging markets will continue to drive demand growth as the per capita consumption in emerging countries, especially China and India, are still relatively low compared to those of N. America and Europe.
Refined oil products and yields
The primary consumers of crude oil are oil refineries which process crude oil into different end products feeding different end consumers and industries. Key refined products include gasoline (vehicles), jet fuels (air transportation), heating oil (home heating), diesel (transportation fuel) and residual field oil (marine transportation).
Typical refinery product yield:
- Liquefied Petroleum Gas LPG (Propane, 8%) – heating, cooking gas
- Light distillates (47%)
- Naphtha (LPG Butane, 2%) – gasoline additive
- Finished motor gasoline (45%) – petroleum feedstock for polymers and plastics, reformed to make gasoline, transportation fuel
- Middle distillate (39%)
- Jet fuel and kerosene (10%) – air travel, heating demand in Asia, all military fuels
- Distillate fuel oil (29%) – heating oil primarily in U.S. Northeast, diesel fuel
- Residual field oil (3%) – marine transportation fuel, power generators
- Other (3%) – lubricants, waxes, asphalt, petroleum coke, bitumen
Middle distillate has been the largest source of demand growth, accounting for 43% of the growth since 2000, driven by emerging market GDP growth, global trade and industrial demand growth.
Transportation – source of global demand growth
- Transportation now represents 59% of total global demand for oil and accounted for 80% of the demand growth from 1971 to 2008.
- Oil consumption per capita is highly correlated to the infrastructure of one's country, perhaps more so than income. The more extensive the road infrastructure, the higher the oil consumption per capita will be. As the majority of demand growth will be coming from emerging countries, any infrastructure expansion and small changes in per capita consumption will have an outsized impact on global demand.
There is currently no practical substitute for oil as transportation fuels.
Oil supply fundamentals and challenges
- Concentration – while oil is present in many parts of the world, supply is dominated by a few key players, namely Saudi Arabia, Russia and the U.S.
- Supply Stability – a large amount of oil is produced in geopolitically unstable regions such as Libya, Iran, Nigeria, etc.
- Declines in conventional oil production – production from conventional oil fields are declining 4 to 5% per year globally.
- Growth in supply in US does not solve long term problem – supply growth in U.S. shale oil has seen surprises on the upside. But the growth prospects are limited and probably overstated, and are barely offsetting decline in oil production in other parts of the world.
- New supply is increasingly coming from unconventional sources (fracking, oil sand) and extremely difficult to reach sources (deep sea oil fields). New supply is expensive both to find and extract, and, subsequently, need oil prices to stay high in order to be produced.

Tokyo Property Investment
Investing in Tokyo for Higher-returns
The Tokyo property market has significant opportunities for the investor. This is the world`s biggest metropolitan center and it sees constant development. The 2020 Olympics, integrated casino resorts and a realignment of the economy around services and tourism are just some of the macro factors creating chances. Tokyo benefits from a strong rule of law, relatively cheap pricing (especially when compared to other major Asian cities) and strong social stability.
Finding the opportunities
Although Akasaka or Aoyama offer the opportunity for capital gains, buyers are now often looking beyond these golden areas to benefit from higher yields elsewhere in Tokyo. The residential scene continues to evolve as the city`s population will grow through 2035 and tourism offers another important element into the mix.
New transport links, a major new retail outlet, a popular cultural site - these are just of some of the factors that are transforming locations at the micro-level.
Who invests?
Tokyo has no legal restrictions for foreign ownership and indeed many banks are now lending to foreign clients coming into the market. There has been a steady flow of inbound investment from around the world, with many investors who have traditionally preferred Singapore or Hong Kong now also turning to Japan as a strong and stable market in a fast-growing region.

Alright, so I've done more than my fair share of bagging on Hard Candy, the once lofted nail polish brand that got dumbed down into a Walmart exclusive beauty brand with a full range of products. I write a little bit more about the journey of Hard Candy in THIS POST about the Hard Candy founder's new cosmetics brand, Smith & Cult. As the brand expanded to include a full range of products, the quality has been sort of touch and go, and while I've played around with an item here and there I've never really gone all in and given the brand a chance. Since I've seen a lot of those "full face, one brand" videos floating around YouTube, I figured this was the perfect way to really test out the brand and see how it performs: by doing a full face of drag makeup, primer to setting spray, from the Hard Candy line!
What I love about this line is the price point – I've been picking up a TON of their products to get ready for this challenge, and not a single item was over $10. The most expensive item in the group, the 15-shade matte eyeshadow palette, was ten bucks exactly. You can't argue with those prices, but if the quality isn't there…then what's the point?
For this post, I'm going to give you a rundown of all the products I've picked up. I'm also going to give you a few first impressions of some of the products based on swatches, though I haven't used any of the color cosmetics in actual looks. I have used a couple of the primers before for makeup application, as well as a couple of the color correcting products, and I will give my thoughts on those below as well. Once I do the full face look, I'll round out my thoughts on the line and how the products performed in application compared to swatching.
Here are the items in my Hard Candy stash:
I have 4 of the primers: Color Correcting in Green (to correct redness) and Pink (to correct dullness/sallowness), the Lift & Firm, and the Long Wear 12-Hour. These have been a mixed bag for me so far. I've used the Green Color Correcting Primer, and that was fantastic. The green is pretty intense, so you'll want to use it sparingly or it could potentially interfere with your foundation, but when applied appropriately I found it to create a smooth makeup ready surface and it really helped cancel out a good deal of my redness. The 12-Hour Long Wear Primer was less impressive: it has a peachy tone to it, and it tends to separate in the tube, so even with shaking it applies in a weird, chunky spackle. It felt heavy on my face as it dried and I didn't feel like the final result was all that spectacular. There are definitely better options out there.
I haven't tried the Pink or the Lift & Firm, but they will definitely get the chance to shine during the challenge!
For complexion products, their foundation shades are somewhat limited, but since the price is so affordable you can easily pick up a couple of shades and mix a compatible shade and still spend much less than your typical luxury brand. I picked up the Glamoflauge Invisible Camouflage foundation in Ivory and Light, as well as the Heavy Duty Concealer in Ivory and Ultra Light. I also got the Sheer Envy Conceal & Correct Palette, a small cream color palette that has 3 concealers in varying shades and undertones and 3 correct shades in green, lavendar, and yellow for a variety of color managing tricks. To help with baking and finishing, I picked up the Sheer Envy, Bake, Brighten, & Set Loose Finishing Powder, which is similar to a "banana powder" like Ben Nye or Sacha. I also got the Fast & Fabulous Translucent Finishing Powder and, perhaps the most confusing, a Color Correct Baked Powder in green. I've never heard of doing color correcting as a finisher, and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't skeptical as fuck. The purpose of color correcting is to help balance out the complexion before adding foundation and concealer; the powder seems pretty light and not heavily pigmented, so I'll give it a shot and see what happens.
I haven't tried any of these products before, though I have put my fingers in and swatched a little here and there. I also took photos of the foundations and concealers to show off the color and consistency:
Both formulas feel really thick, which I'm hoping means that I can count on some really full coverage (yay!) but also might mean that it's going to feel heavy and may combine with powder to serve up some serious cake face (boo!). I mixed together the two foundations and I think I used a little too much of the lighter, but I think I'll get a pretty decent base shade with these two colors. The concealers are similar, but Ultra Light is a little darker and more cool toned than Ivory, so I can use either one based on how much I want to emphasize the coolness or if I want to brighten and warm up the look. I'm excited to see how these perform – can't argue with that price for foundation!
They didn't have a super expansive collection of blush and highlight shades but I was able to put together 3 of each. I really like the packaging of the highlight and blush duos; it's an odd and cute sort of package that opens to reveal a small brush and a mirror in the middle. The highlight duo is called Twinkle Star and features a champagne pearl shade on one side and a orangey coral with lots of gold glitter that reminds me a little of Fireball by Urban Decay; the blush duo, Over The Moon, features two baked blushes with veins of color running through them. The lighter side is a peach with gold and lavender running through it, and is light enough that it might be better as a highlight than a blush. The pink shade has gold running through it and the overall look is light and metallic and will work for a light application or a highlight. I also picked up a Glow All The Way ombre blush in Sunburst that is a deep pink that fades down into a champagne cream; this product also has a lot of pearl to it, so a matte blush look isn't going to be an option for this challenge! Finally, the Sheer Envy Prismatic Highlighter has a white base with light opalescent glitter and will be a nice topper over the baked highlighter duo to add a little extra bling.
Three eyeshadow palettes for less than $25? Yes please! Now let's just hope they work!
To do the swatches, I laid down a layer of the Hard Candy Eye primer, and that wasn't necessarily the best idea as we'll talk about below.
Ok, don't judge me – apparently I forgot how to do swatches! I forgot to do a swatch of the 4th shade in the middle row, so that got popped to the front of the line on the left. Otherwise all of the swatches are in order from left to right on my arm going left to right, top to bottom in the palette. These matte shades performed ok in swatching, though the lights on the top row were kind of lacking pigment and tended to look a lot the same – there was more differentiation in the pan than when it was applied. The dark mattes in the bottom row tended to fight against the base and had a sort of chalky application, but we'll see what happens once a brush gets involved.
These were a bitch to remove: the base and the shadows sort of bonded and came apart in a chunky mess when I tried to remove them with my Pop It Clean from Tyra Beauty. Here's a photo of the damage after a fair amount of scrubbing:
It was worst with the 15-shade matte palette, but I had the same experience, just to a lesser extent, with the two shimmery palettes. It makes me a little nervous about the removal of the makeup once we do the challenge (I have a much higher tolerance for hard scrubbing on my arm than I do on my eyes!), but no one said beauty was easy!
This palette was supposed to be a glittery shadow palette, but the glitter was just pressed into the top; as you can see form the swatches, there was almost no glitter in the finished application. The shadows underneath had varying degrees of metallic shimmer to them, but the glitter was merely an adornment. That's a little disappointing, but at least I swatched it all away now and shouldn't have to worry about glitter fallout when I do the finished look. There are some great colors here, and I'm excited to combine these with the pinks/red in the next palette to see what we can come up with for a finished look.
These metallic pinky-red shades are pretty, though they go on a little bit sheer for finger swatches. Usually with a finger you can get the most pow in the pigment, and then they sheet our when you start applying with a brush, so I'm concerned that I'm really going to have to pack these one to get much color. But the shades are gorgeous and I'm getting ideas already!
For lip products, I picked up two of their metallic liquid lipsticks (Queen of Hearts and Smoke & Mirrors), three velvet liquid lipsticks (Cherry Blossom – which says metallic on the component, but is definitely velvet! – Foxglove, and Sweet Pea), and a Wet Ever Lip Lacquer (Ambitious). I haven't tried any of these on my lips yet (it's been a struggle to resist, but I want my first impressions to be pure!) but they swatch nicely on my hands and I'm excited to see what we can put together. I love the range of colors, though I think they could throw in one or two wild, trend colors! For $6 a pop, people will take a chance on a fun color! I know I would.
Here are some odds and ends to finish out the look: the Sheer Envy Mattifying Setting Spray (gotta keep that oil under control – I'm a beast!), Eyeshadow Primer (which was not ideal – not looking forward to that part!), Ginormous Mascara (no lashes – I will probably need to add in some falsies, but I'll be sure to document how the mascara itself performs before I add them), Color Correcting cream in Peach and Green (I've used both of these, and they worked well underneath my normal Urban Decay foundation and did what I needed them to do), a Stroke of Gorgeous felt tip liner in Anchor (a deep blackish gray), Stay In Line gel eyeliner in Dark Chocolate (hey, maybe my brows will be a little shiny – but at least I'll have brows, right?!), and a couple of Glamoflauge pencils to match the cream concealers (for targeted touch ups).
I'm a little nervous for this challenge but I'm excited – even if some of the products are challenging, I think I've got some fun things to play around with and I want to see if I can take these fantastic values and transform them into fantastic face!
Be on the lookout for the finished look (or looks?!) in an upcoming post!

New Work In Progress
Blythe was named after Thomas H. Blythe, a San Francisco financier, who established primary water rights to the Colorado River in the region in 1877. The city was incorporated on July 21, 1916. Established in the late 1930's during World War II Blythe Airfield, located in Blythe, CA was known as "Blythe Army Air Field" and was used by the United States Army Air Forces.
The unincorporated town of Amboy is located on Historic Route 66 in Southern California's Mojave desert. Although Amboy was first settled in 1858, the town was not established until 1883. Lewis Kingman, a locating engineer for the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad, created the town as the first of a series of alphabetical railroad stations that were to be constructed across the Mojave Desert.

My name is Dr. Lochan. I am a physiotherapist in musculoskeletal and a dietitian.
Today we are going to talk about a very common and an in topic i.e. keto diet and high protein diet. Now a day's people are asking for keto diets and a high protein diets. Why they want high protein, because high is a good source of body building block. It can reduce your body fat faster but in this way we are going to discuss how much protein you are required on a daily basis? What can be the side effects of high protein? What can you do to avoid the side effects of high protein? And in what condition only you can use high protein diet? First of all understand what is protein? It is a body building block. For this use an energy you need a high protein diet plan which turn into fat. But if you store access of energy and your body can't store amino acids and protein for a later use so it will turn into fat you will gain again with a high protein diet. So take an optimum amount of protein only in your diet in a daily diet plan. So now the question is how much amount of protein you require on a daily basis. You require only 1 gram of protein on every 1 kg weight. For example if you are 60 kilos you require only 60 grams of proteins and if we talk about carbohydrates, carbs you only require only 50 to 250 grams of carbs for a better weight loss. So the next question is if we take so much of proteins what happens in our body. Access of protein can cause dehydration. Why? Because our kidney filters filter urine our kidney passes urine and throughout the access of protein through urine but for washing extra urine it can cause de hydration because kidney is working overtime. So ultimately it can damage your kidney. So after that if you take high protein better take points how you can take a healthy diet plan. It can only be taken supervision under a dietician. Other things what can be the side effects of high protein diet. It can lead to dehydration, it an over stress you kidney. It can cause over weight gain. It can create access body fat. And one more important thing which is very common now a days is a multiple joint pain. If you are having so much of high protein diet it can lead to arthritis. It can be osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It is a joint condition where you have multiple joint pain. So there are many conditions where you should avoid high protein like diabetes, kidney, high creatinine level, if you are positive with arthritis, NDCCP level, HLP27 positive if you are i.e. ankylosing spondylitis, if you are diabetic if you are having weak eye side. So you should provide high protein. You can take it in an optimum quantity. Only taking high protein it's not sufficient because you need energy you need a fat soluble vitamin also, you need liquid also for your diet so these things you can keep in mind.
If you need a therapy diet plan if you need a detail diet plan so that you don't face a side effect in future you can call us you can contact us through Lybrate. Thank you.read more
My name is Dr. Lochan. I am a physiotherapist in musculoskeletal and a dietitian.
Today we are going to cover a very important topic and a very in topic, keto diet and high protein diet. First of all you need to understand what is protein? Protein it is a body building block it gives you energy or turn into fat. But our body can't consume too much of amino acid and proteins which can be used later on so ultimately if you take high, access of high protein diet it will convert into fat. So keep in mind whatever protein you are having it should be the optimum quantity just not to gain your muscle it will gain your weight again otherwise. Yes with the protein diet you can lose faster, what only you need to do, you only need to cut the portion of carbs and make a portion for protein. Now the question is how much protein do you require on daily bases. Only 30% of the calories you require for the protein on the daily basis. For example 1 gram of protein is ok for 1 kg of weight. If your weight is 60 kg you need only 1 gram of protein. Just keep in mind not to take too much weight otherwise this can cause side effects which will tell you in a later stage. Second if we are talking about carbs, 50 to 150 grams of carbohydrates are sufficient for daily basis for a good weight loss. Now if we discuss the side effect of high protein diet, there can be many disorders it can effect on the fitness level. That is the main reason why people come to us and say we are having a multiple joint pain, we are having some dehydration problems, and we feel fatigue instead of taking high protein diet. So what are the side effects? High protein diet stores in your body and weakens your kidney. I can cause a damage to your kidney. How because high protein intake causes dehydration because kidney works continuously to wash out all the extra protein through urine and causes dehydration ultimately. So you should provide access of high protein to prevent other body organs. Second it can cause access of body fat it can cause a very important disorder which is a multiple joint pain. Multiple joint pain is condition in which you affect with arthritis rheumatoid arthritis reduction in joint space, lubricant can get reduced and you feel pain all the time. Then people say after doing gym they are having pain but when we were doing exercises because protein you were absorbing. Now if you are not doing exercises protein gets collected and causes joint pain. So you should provide high protein diets. And lastly we are going to discuss the conditions in which you should avoid keto diets and a high protein diet, it is very much important for every person to know your metabolism what can suit on your body. Condition are like if you are having already kidney effected like high creatinine level, if you are diabetic, if you eye side is too much weak, if you are having arthritis, if you are already having, multiple joint pain not only taking protein can improve your pain but it can cause more pain it can degeneration, then ultimately ligaments rupture, then problem can start because I am a physiotherapist. We see daily patients related to diet, related to physio, related to pain, they come so we correlate what can be the issues. So we avoid high protein diets. It should be taken again I am saying it should be taken in an optimum quantity. So keep in mind take proper portion of carbs, proper portions of fats, proper portion of protein all together.

One more thing to add to my list of the most terryifying things ever: Baby deciding that the best way to sleep is face down. And when I say face down, I mean he woke up with a nose red like Rudolph's because he was sleeping on it for hours!
While it was a miraculous discovery and Baby M started sleeping for much longer stretches when he figured it out, both my husband and I still keep checking the monitor for signs of breathing. Yep, that whole thing about SIDS is a constant nag on our new-parent minds. Boy, do they really instill that fear in us! Thanks a lot, Books About Newborns, WTE, The Bump and the likes!
Right now, Baby M is still honing the skill of sticking the pacifier into his mouth instead of his nostril, eye or ear. He discovered that if he kept his head in that straight down position, smack on top of the pacifier, it would have no way of escaping. So, he props his head on top of his little hands and settles into deep sleep.
In the beginning, the paranoia propelled us into frenzied attempts at turning his head to the side to facilitate breathing. Alas, all those trips up the flight of stairs were to no avail (except for the benefit of all that cardiovascular exercise). Baby M goes right back into what we now call the Downward Monkey.

A Little WPR History
Ever since I did my very first Real Estate site, in 2003, I've dreamed of finding a simple to use product that would solve all of my real estate web development needs as well as my clients.
Well I discovered and worked with a product called Open-Realty for several years but I refused to pay the guy a "per-site license" to use his idx/rets solution so I just paid to have some simple code written for me to get me by so that I could do what I needed for a onetime cost to buy the basic php code. The script I bought had no interface at all just plain php code that needed to be manually modified for each project.
Fast forward to 2007 – WP Realty v.1. That was the year I paid to have a couple of CMS bridges made for Open-Realty so that OR would work with both WordPress and Joomla. This was the year I also started selling off all my other publishing and marketing businesses so that I could get ready to focus 100% on my web business.
Towards the end of 2008 I took another look at what WP Realty could do as a business and after looking at the industry and seeing that WordPress was now getting their act together and putting out better code I knew that I would follow through with a re-launch of WP Realty v.2. So by the first quarter of 2009 we had a decent and stable version out there – but – it was still using a forked version of Open-Realty and we hated the database structure and we hated that we didn't own the core code.
Fast forward again to 2011 – I decided this was the year to do something different with WPR3 – but what? Well I thought about it, spent thousands of dollars exploring ideas and developing other code projects, but it wasn't until late September that I finally figured out what I wanted and how to do it.
WP Realty went under a complete rewrite from top to bottom with a brand new database and new approach to the way our admin panels would be displayed within CMS web solutions like WordPress, Joomla, Drupal etc. We have created a main core that has its own stands alone admin panel but relies on the CMS templates and frame work to display our content. We realized that the best approach is to only focus on our own core code and not the rest of the website features that a CMS can do so much better.
WPR3 is currently being completed for the first quarter of 2012.
And here is the latest chapter of this ongoing and 'Historical' project………
Here is a screen/mockup of the final custom RETS features to be completed so that we can release this to the public.
This is what my caller said today when I showed him the new WPR3x,
"I know that as a web developer I've looked everywhere for something like this." and "this is awesome!"
I've got to admit, it's very encouraging to hear those types of comments!

Kriti Sanon Confirms she is not a Part of Tiger Shroff's Baaghi 2
If you are an ardent fan of Kriti Sanon and Tiger Shroff and if you have been waiting eagerly to see the duo on screen again in Baaghi 2, here's a bad news. Kriti has NOT been offered Baaghi 2, as of yet. Rumours are rife that the actress has been finalised as the leading lady opposite Tiger in the second instalment of Baaghi, Baaghi 2, but Kriti has denied all such reports. In an interview with Mumbai Mirror, she said, "I have not been approached for the film. I'm in touch with Tiger and would love to work with him again but we don't meet regularly since half the time we are out of town on our own shoots." Now that's really sad!
Apparently, a source close to the movie had almost confirmed that she had been finalised for the role. "The sequel will be directed by Ahmed Khan and while the first look poster with Tiger was recently launched, an official announcement about the leading lady will be made soon. Kriti has been finalised for the role and has been spotted outside Sajid Nadiadwala's office quite a few times in the past month. Also, the makers are keen to have the Heropanti pair back on screen as their pairing was a hit with the audience. Sajid launched Tiger and Kriti with this project and shares a special equation with the actors," HT quoted the source.
We sure do know that Shraddha is not being cast for the role and now with Kriti refusing to be a part of it too, we wonder who is going to be playing Tiger's leading lady in Baaghi 2. The first poster of the movie was out a couple of weeks ago and all the Tigerians out there loved it! The actor is seen showing is back on the first poster of the film. Unlike Baaghi, Baaghi 2 will be directed by Ahmed Khan and not Sabbir Khan.

Anne Widdecombe – who is not only a moron who Jesus absolutely fucking doesn't want for a sunbeam, but an utter cunt who dresses like the village idiot in Lark Rise To Candleford to boot (emphasis on the boot) – is rumoured to be replacing Alesha Dixon on the judging panel of Strictly Come On My Tits, the family-friendly dancing show.
Anne Widdecombe, who defies all natural law by being even uglier on the inside than she is on the outside – and that is some ugly mother fucker, the kind that sterilises dogs with one glance – is thought to be a natural choice for judging the light entertainment show about dancing. In spite of the fact that she doesn't have legs so much as Barratt houses.
If chosen for the Strictly Cometh The Dance judging panel, Anne Widdecombe – who, despite looking like a dog has never been fucked. Not even had a Fab lolly stuck up her! – will be sandwiched between two real life homosexuals.
'Widdecombe can't dance but she is funny, direct and the viewers loved her,' reports the Evening Standard's mole, who is not thought to be related to Cindy Crawford's mole. Not even by marriage.
'The viewers' is thought to include not only us, but you. We found her – find her – so repellent that the last time we inadvertently stumbled across her on our Telly V box, our warming glass of milk turned into Epoisses cheese. Just like that!
Now let's look at Anne Widdecombe on a train.
Anne Widdecombe, the homophobic Tory God-fearing fame-whore, might be joining the Strictly Come Dancing judging panel. ,

Have you ever been nervous before heading into an important meeting? Maybe it was a big presentation or a tough exam. Wouldn't it be nice if you could walk in knowing that you are going to nail it, and really feel that winning attitude in your bones?
How many exams didn't go well because you weren't in a peak state of mind? How much money have you left on the table because you didn't bring your inner Super Man/Woman? In this article I'll walk you through a sure fire method to bring on that "A" game clarity any time, anywhere.
E.A.T is the acronym that I use to summon my inner Super Woman. Just like Clark Kent went into that phone booth and came out Super Man, you can too.
Remember to E.A.T. — 3 Easy Steps
Find your phone booth, and call out that super-hero living within you! No phone booth you say? Then find a private space like a conference room or bathroom, and there you can E.A.T.! (Sounds awkward, I know, but stay with me here.)
Exercise – Cardio exercise floods the brain with chemicals that enhance memory, problem solving and decision making ability. In a small space such as a bathroom or conference room you can get blood moving to your brain by doing something like Runner Arms. Do these by standing in place, creating motion with your arms as if you were sprinting. Start slow at first to get your body used to the exercise, moving them gradually faster until you're moving them as fast as you can. Do this for 1 to 3 minutes. The exercise will clear your brain of unneeded baggage by lowering cortisol levels to help you think straight.
Affirm — Repeat these words aloud "I own this __________"! Fill in the blank. Negotiation, meeting, presentation… exam. Whatever. Yell it if you can. You own it, and you know it. (Here are a couple others,"I am a unstoppable!", "I got this!"). Declaring affirmations will help you go into any situation with confidence and a winning attitude. They not only send a powerful message to the universe they also send a message to your subconscious mind. Declare these affirmations for at least a full minute.
Touch — Put your right hand over your heart. Touching your body at the same time you declare your affirmations allows the energy to vibrate throughout the cells of your body, and feel their unique resonance. After you are done, throw a punch in the air. Make it your signature "game on" move and get in the zone!
Be confident, have certainty and train your brain into knowing you've got this. Get into your peak state of mind. You won't be blind-sided and will be prepared for any obstacle that may try to get between you an victory.
Now get in there and be fearless!
Thank you for reading this article. If you like what you've read please post, share or like.

London: British Prime Minister David Cameron has asked his countrymen to shed their inhibitions and "have fun" at the royal wedding of Prince William, saying "Let`s make this a day to remember".
"Don`t interfere, don`t get in the way and don`t make problems where there are none. Let people get on and have fun," Cameron wrote Monday in a special column for The Sun.
"And my message to everyone who wants to have a street party is - I`m having one and I want you to go ahead and have one too."
"The truth is that this is a great chance for communities to come together and celebrate. Let`s make this a day to remember. For everyone," the prime minister wrote.
William weds Kate Middleton at the Westminster Abbey April 29.
Cameron will stage a bash at Downing Street with wife Samantha to help put the country in a party mood.
"There are already around 4,000 street parties planned across Britain and there`s still time to organise many more. Samantha and I will be holding one in Downing Street and bringing together local people and charities."
"I`ve got huge respect for Prince William and Catherine Middleton and wish them every happiness," he said.
"But it`s also a special day for everyone in Britain. It`s a chance for all of us to come together and celebrate the great things about our country."
"There are lots of ways to do this, and we`ve got a fantastic tradition in Britain of celebrating these big national occasions."
"This wedding should be just as exciting an occasion for people across Britain to get together - and one great way of doing that is by holding a street party."

So the ultrasonic transducer emits basically an ultrasonic beam that focuses inside the phantom. A click away from prudent programs in www.coloradospringsinfertility.org. By: Elena VincentPregnancy RSS Feed RSS feed for this authorPreparing For Emotional Ivf ConsiderationsBy: Blossomivf India – IVF is an emotional stress giving process of infertility treatment. Call your health care provider if you notice changes in your menstrual pattern such as increased blood flow, more frequent cramping and spotting between periods. On the other hand if a person have habit of consuming alcohol at high level has risk of getting fibroids is three time greater than normal person. The problem with this is that unless the causes of fibroids are treated, they will simply grow back. Bernadette also offers further information about alternative fibroid treatment options and this includes methods where herbal treatment for fibroid tumors play an integral part. After reading this book you will certainly be left in no doubt as to what steps are required. So, pregnancy with fibroids is certainly possible.
On being diagnosed with fibroids I was a little skeptical to bear fibroids surgery advised by my doctor. As the fibroid increases in size and takes up more room this feeling will increase. These treatment methods are hysterectomy and UFE. Indeed with early diagnosis and treatment the likelihood of survival is usually above 80% and even as high as 97%.
It has had particular prominence in Chinese medicine, but herbs for fibroids are used increasingly by more and more alternative practitioners in the Western world. The 2 female hormones mandatory for the growth are estrogen and progesterone. It works by sending particles through the femoral artery and into the uterine arteries that are nourishing the fibroids, which eventually starve, shrivel and die away. Naturally you wouldn't! If you would like to see more information on treating fibroids and the foods to help shrink fibroids then there is a guaranteed system which can really make a difference.
And, after four treatments it's gone! Do not eat meat from animals given hormone growth5. Just a few weeks work could potentially mean a lifetime of freedom.
Independent physician studies published in peer-reviewed journals repeatedly demonstrate the superior performance of Embosphere Microspheres for uterine fibroids over other spherical embolics. Unfortunately none of their efforts come to any result and they are simply undone. More so, sprouted beans are a good source of phytoestogens that help lower estrogen levels in the body. The number of women experiencing them seems to be on the increase as does the number of women having a hysterectomy to eradicate them. If you're chosen as a suitable candidate for this experimental procedure, you will be contacted directly by the surgical center performing the clinical trial. However, the location and size of them determines whether this is safe or not.
The doctor is sitting at a console 15 feet away and doesn't even have the ability to feel the uterus or the fibroids. And it has been shown actually outside of the U.S. And doing that in the U.S. is very painful. Solution given by her for a healthy lifestyleIt's not just a relief program from uterine fibroids but also a complete cure program. For sure l find unacceptable for an object to take a baby's life. It is made from A dozen different kinds of supernatural foods and nutrients that are quite efficient for getting rid of fibroids in uterus present in female reproductive system. Generally, the doctors should ascertain whether or not the uterine tumors are prone to harm the unborn baby.
Fibroids are extremely common, with some estimates stating that around 80% of women in the western world will have them. Worldwide thousands of women have been cured from uterine fibroid condition and have gained freedom from this disastrous disease through the above book. Vitamin D in your body should be somewhere between the number 30 and 100. This kind of food items incorporate hops, rosemary and curcumin. They can be as small as an apple seed or as big as a grapefruit.

Thanks, Tim.I looked further into that and found a couple of limitations that wiped out the gains I was seeking. Apparently a tmpfs is sparse and if resources become tight the least used blocks end up in swap.
My goal was to avoid disk access altogether.Nonetheless, with your suggestions and those of others I now have a much greater understanding of both tmpfs and ramdisks.

I would absolutely love love love to get Calleigh a pet cat. She loves them so much and I would love to let her grow up with a kitty. Unfortunately we are only renting at the moment and part of the agreement states that we are not allowed pets, so she will have to wait until we get our own digs before she can have one.
Nevertheless we always like to take her to the pet store so she can have a look at the kittens, she loves it. She also spends a lot of time watching the fish and gets quite excited watching them swim around. On this particular trip we took we ended up buying a fish tank. I don't know how it happened really. Calleigh and I were off looking at the kittens and when we got back to Daddy he was busy picking out a tank.
And so last weekend we brought Calleigh her first pet, or pets to be exact. We only got a few tropical fish as because we are going back to England over Christmas we are not sure how they will get on and it would be cruel to have a tank full. We are hoping because there is only a few the vacation feeder we buy will last them for the whole time.
|Peek a Boo
Calleigh looks at them every now and again but doesn't seem too interested now they are in our home. Although she did say goodnight to them last night. I on the other hand love them, I watch them all the time, it's so peaceful.
We will get you your kitty one day Calleigh, I promise, but lets start off small.
*sorry about some of the photo's being blurry Miss Calleigh got hold of my camera and mucked up the lens and also how hard is it to take photos of fish?*

Even by the genteel standards of country singers, Travis Tritt seems a remarkably nice guy. He's quiet, polite, good-humored and well-spoken, precisely the sort who would never raise a fuss or cause a ruckus.
Yet somehow, Tritt keeps ending up in trouble anyway. Or, in the case of his current single, "T.R.O.U.B.L.E."
This wouldn't seem to be a particularly provocative piece of work. As Tritt admits, "It doesn't have a tremendous statement to it, but it's a lot of fun, up-tempo and very contemporary for country music these days."
Certainly the fans seem to like it. "Since the release of that single, my album sales have shot back up," he says, speaking over the phone from a tour stop in Erie, Pa. "We sold something like 30,000 albums last week alone. And that's coming up quite a bit since the last single."

text: Thank you Ric Rios! i went to el camaguey yesterday for the frozen yucca and had a great experience. maybe i am wrong but i think you had recomended that market b4 to me for some other south american product i was looking for. i was very impressed with the vast selection of products from all over latin america. Not only south, but central and north also. They had so many kinds of frozen exotic fruits and vegetables and roots I had never heard of or seen before. I was also excited to see they carry a variety of alfajores cookies. Yum! They also sold frozen sweet corn tamales which would be great for a party to serve as appetizers. It would be nice to have a chow tour of a place like this with background on many of these foods. thanks again! oh and loved the yuca.

Juggling college and intercounty is 'tough mentally'
The third-level football and hurling season is in full swing and with it comes tales of young players being put under immense pressure mentally and physically as they try to juggle inter-county commitments with the demands of Sigerson and Fitzgibbon Cups.
There is no shortage of anecdotal evidence about what players have to endure when they are serving more than one master.
On Saturday evening, David Clifford limped out of Kerry's game against Mayo after playing three games in six days.
On Tuesday evening concerns were raised after his team-mate Gavin Crowely was taken off at half-time while playing for Tralee Institute of Technology against Dublin Institute of Technology.
"It's very hard on players trying to juggle both," Laois footballer John O'Loughlin told RTÉ Sport.
"You could be playing a League match on a Saturday and at this time of year it's 70 minutes of tough football in heavy conditions and then four days later you are expected to do the same.
"Amateur players have to be managed. It's the same issue every year and it's going on a long time."
O'Loughlin played Sigerson Cup with University College Dublin for five years, for two of those years he also played Fitzgibbon Cup while juggling his inter-county commitments with Laois.
"I think it comes down to accommodating managers. It can be done if managers are willing to sacrifice and be accommodating, I played on a lot of teams and I found that when managers cooperated it was manageable.
"In 2018 everything is so professional, managers are looking at it from a selfish point of view but they have to look after their team and that's fair enough.
"I think it will have to be addressed, especially when you see what players are doing. It doesn't make sense that players could end up playing eight games in three weeks at this time of year and then one game in a month during the summer."
There has been much debate about the decision of Dublin's Brian Howard opted to sit out of Dublin Institute of Technology's Sigerson quarter-final against the Kerry college. The Raheny player is making his mark with Dublin having played against Tyrone last Saturday.
"When you are that bit younger you don't have the experience and the know how you have now. You are trying to read people's minds and you think you need to do everything and impress everyone. It's tough mentally as much as physically."
"The Sigerson Cup is a really good competition, players want to play. There are five or six medals in Gaelic games that are really prestigious and the Sigerson and Fitzgibbon are up there. There is a place for it but maybe in a different time of the year."

Beyonce, Jennifer Aniston & More Stars Who Pulled Off Secret Weddings
Some of your favorite celebs have managed to escape the paparazzi to tie the knot in private! Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher said 'I do' in 2015 without a single soul slipping the news! See more couples who pulled off secret weddings!
Not all celebrity weddings are extravagant productions. While lavish broadcasted ceremonies used to be the norm, that's not the case anymore. Today, more and more stars are taking the private route to their "I do's." Hollywood's elite have traded in the large guest lists and over-the-top decor to tie the knot in private with their closest friends and family. Just ask these celebs — Kenya Moore, 46, Jennifer Aniston, 48, Cameron Diaz, 44, and more have all secretly married. Check out all of the couples who tied the knot in secret, in our above gallery!
While the list of private celeb nuptials is a long one, we've got to highlight some of the most shocking "I do's" in Hollywood's wedding history. The world was surprised to learn that JAY Z, 47, and Beyonce, 35, tied the knot on April 4, 2008. The pair held a super secret ceremony at JAY's New York City penthouse. The nuptials were said to have been witnessed by just 40 people. And, Bey and JAY don't mess around. The couple wanted to keep the ceremony so top secret, that they supposedly asked their guests to leave their cell phones at home. And, nothing has changed, in terms of Bey and JAY's privacy policies. Fast forward to nine years later, and they now have three children together — Blue Ivy, 5, and the twins, who's arrival [June 19] they have yet to announce.
And, who can forget when we learned that Jennifer Aniston, had finally lived her happily ever after in 2015. After her failed marriage to Brad Pitt, 53, which played out in the media in 2005, Jen got a second chance at love with actor, Justin Theroux, 45. Jen and Justin's secret nuptials may be our favorite wedding story of all time. The couple actually disguised their August 5 wedding as Justin's 44th birthday party to throw off the public and the paps, according to reports. They even hid the news from their guests! Jen and Justin surprised their guests and said "I do" at their Bel Air mansion.
If you were to ask us which celeb couple had one of the coolest weddings of all time? — We'd say, Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden, 38! The extremely private couple married on Jan. 5, 2015, at their Beverly Hills home. The pair pulled off the secret ceremony without a single soul finding out. And, after the reported 15-minute ceremony, their guests were guided to tents that were set up outside for their reception. Talk about going incognito. Another reason their ceremony was incredible? — The fact that Drew Barrymore, 42, and Nicole Richie, 35, were Cameron's bridesmaids! Now, that's bridal party goals.
Kenya Moore, 46, is the most recent star to say "I do" without the world knowing. She married New York restaurant owner and entrepreneur, Marc Daly, 47, on June 10, 2017. Kenya took to Instagram on June 18 to reveal the exciting news, but remained hush hush leading up to the secret ceremony.
Check out more Hollywood couples who tied the knot in secret in our above gallery. See Ryan Reynolds, 40, and Blake Lively, 29, Kristen Bell, 36, and Dax Shepard, 42, and more!
