Celebrity Tattoos - The Latest Fashion Accessory
Celebrity tattoos are becoming more and more popular with every year that passes. These days it's common to see well known celebrities from the world of films, sport and music displaying their tattoos and body art on screen or in magazines. But there was a time when tattoos were looked upon with contempt especially among the leading celebrities of the moment. Anyone who had tattoos was generally regarded as being on the fringes of society. However, all that started to change in the 1960s when........ Read More
Don't Get Caught Up With The Celebrity Fashions Parade
There are a lot of young girls, and even some old ones, who are hopelessly smitten with celebrity fashions. Though I don't think there is anything absolutely wrong about this, it can become somewhat of a problem later on. Many young girls are trying to wear celebrity fashions that don't even fit them in terms of looks and even personality. When a 12 year old girl has a thong sneaking up above her jeans, you have to cringe a bit, and wonder how her mum actually let her out of the door. Celeb........ Read More
A lot of younger girls, and even some older ones, are hopelessly smitten with celebrity fashions. Though I don't think there is anything wrong with this, it can be a problem. Some girls are trying to wear celebrity fashions that are entirely too much for them. When a twelve-year-old girl has a thong peeking up above her jeans, you have to cringe a bit, and wonder why her mother let her out of the door that morning. Sex sells, but should it be selling to that young of an age group? There i........ Read More

Bleeding gums – causes and treatment
What do bleeding gums mean?
Whenever you are consuming food, food is forced between your teeth. Occasionally the food between your teeth is big enough to feel but many times it is not ,this food will either be removed by flossing or brushing or it will stick whether it is getting a good environment ,it breaks in to bacteria and acids. These bacteria cause gum disease or bleeding gums.
Spitting blood when you brush your teeth is not natural. It could be an early sign of gum disease and can be an initial stop on the trip to tooth loss. If you see blood in the sink when you brush occasionally or everyday, you should never overlook it and rather take effort into how to stop oozing gums.
First stage is gingivitis; it is identified by gingival inflammation/swelling in gums caused by bacteria. Gums become red, swollen forming blood bumps inside the pockets of gum tissue.surrounding your teeth. These blood bumps on brushing and flossing burst out and blood moves to the top of gingival which is very obviuos and we can see it and you may have a bad breath.
If gingivitis is not treated, a second stage or condition called periodontitis develops. This infects the tissues that support teeth and hold them in place. If it is not cured the bone in your jaw can get deteriorated. Small spaces can open between gums and teeth; teeth become free and may finally fall out.
- • Abscessed tooth
- • Gum disease
- • Improper brushing and flossing
- • Haemophilia
- • Leukaemia
- • Poor oral hygiene
- • Smoking
- • Poor nutrition
- • Pregnancy
- • Yellow fever
- • Dentures that don't fit.
- • Brushing your teeth twice a day with fluoride tooth paste
- • Flossing frequently to remove plaque between the teeth
- • Vesting the dentist habitually for a check up and professional cleaning for at least every 6 months
- • Discontinuing smoking
- • Rinse with salt water eat a balanced diet and avoid snacking between meals
- • Try an oral irrigation device to clear debris from the gum line
- • You should make an appointment and visit your dentist if your gums are burning, painful, swollen or if they bleed when you brush your teeth
- • Dentist carries out an elaborate dental examination to check the condition of your gum. This involves inserting a fine metal stick with a curve bend in one end (perio.probe) besides each tooth.
- • Dentist also takes some xrays to inspect the health of your teeth and jaw bone.
- • Mild cases of gum disease can be usually treated or you can say it is reversible by sustaining a good level of oral hygiene like brushing and flossing.
- • Acute gum disease require more comprehensive treatment .: in this deep pockets between tissue and bone ,these pockets get easily infected and without eliminating the infection it can vertibly spread through your jaw, eventually ,acing its way to eyes and brain, in more worse cases can lead to blindness and even death.
- • Conventionally dentists recommend gum surgery/flap surgery to eliminate the infection, but unhappily that normally involves a equitably invasive procedure including slicing, sutures and along debilitating recovery time.
- • However, a new LASER TECHNOLOGY called PERIO LASE may offer a high grade alternative without invasiveness of surgery. Rather it inserts a tiny laser fibber approx. Thickness of 3 hairs (200µm) between teeth and gums to clear away the infection
- • NO CUTTING –pergolas doesn't cut into your gums like surgery, which also discards the need for sutures.
- • LESS DISCOMFITURE-periolase is far less painful during and after the procedure than surgery. The procedure is so non-invasive that it only requires local anaesthesia.
- • SHORTER PROCEDURE-pergolas takes only 2 hr visits for treatment nod two follow up visits.
- • BETTER RESULTS-laser has got lifelong results.
- • FEW DIET INSTRUCTIONS-a dentist may recommend a soft diet for few days.
- • SHORT RECPVERY TIME-recovery after a gum surgery may take2-4 weeks, but periolase recovery time is less than 24 hrs.
- • SAFE FOR ALL PATIENTS-periolase is safe for all types of patients with some health issues like HIV, haemophilia or patients taking aspirin etc.
- • With that in mind we will present some periodontal treatment outcomes in which standard periodontal techniques are incorporated with laser light to constraint chronic periodontitis or bone loss.

For Gracie's birthday, she very much wanted to spend the afternoon at the Naples Botanical Garden so off we went, with my mom and dad in tow. We had a wonderful time, and I even managed to get a few photos of the beautiful landscape.
You know you are a garden nerd when you go to a celebrated local landmark and start thinking about how *you* might edit it, what you would add. My big contribution would be Passiflora. Yes, I am obsessed, but it truly is one of the most amazing things we can grow here, the flowers look like something out of fantasy, and once the vine goes, it sort of takes care of itself. I couldn't believe there weren't any at the garden. But maybe it's in the works!
And I would create a "possibilities" garden- all the things you think you can't grow down here in this climate or in pots (everyone own here has a lanai!). And a big sunflower garden. And… well.., I'll stop there. The truth is, I feel very very blessed that we have such an AMAZING garden just a few miles from our house. Truly. It's an amazing place.
Here are some photos:

Is a Car Loan a Necessity or Plain Luxury?
Car loans, would it really be worth it to struggle? As car premiums would be high and at the time of reselling a vehicle the value of a car would have substantially depreciated. There is also the problem of having to make those huge amount of monthly payments and a high risk of payment delinquencies. The chance that there would be consecutive delinquencies you could actually lose your vehicle to auto repossession.
There are many things to think about before actually buying a car. Where to get the funds to purchase a car. Is it actually a luxury or a necessity? Buying a brand new car or a used one. These days' car loans are very competitive in the banking industry and so, if it is deemed necessary, car loans are available in in-house, banks and other financial lenders. Some things to consider before taking out a car loan are as follows:
- Which would be faster a daily commute or having a car to go to the places needed? (i.e. home to work and vice versa) If the distance to be traveled would be 4km or less the chance that a short commute along with walking would actually be faster rather than driving, but any distance above 5km it can be assumed that it is faster to drive.
- There is also that question of gas vs. fare. Aside from comfort gas prices is something to be considered as mass transport vehicles are on the rise the farther the distance to be traveled. The more economical a commute would be rather than driving your own car, especially when driving alone. Then again a sub-question to that would be which is a personal preference economy or comfort?
- A car is no toy, that being said a responsible car owner has to set aside a budget for monthly maintenance check-ups. To keep the car running smoothly plays a huge part in car ownership, especially as car loans are the car owner might just end up with a very, very expensive paperweight.
- Would you own a vehicle for the simple purpose getting from point a to point b? Or would this vehicle would be a family vehicle that almost all its members would gain from its ownership. As children would be more comfortable in going to school, carrying groceries from the supermarket to home would be a lot more comfortable as well as going from home to work and vice versa.
- Having considered all those things one more questioned, should be raised, the question of distance versus traffic. If a 30-minute walk turns out to be a 45-minute drive, would it still be feasible to have a car? Unless that there is heavy load involved in carrying a walk would sound like a better idea since a single person could fit into small walkways where automobiles would not fit, ergo a short walk would be faster, more economical and not to mention healthier than going for a drive.
Car loans could easily be an answer in owning a vehicle, but it would not be only the financial cost that would be important. There is also the personal cost, comfort, speed and economy that should be considered. As costly as it seems if the personal cost prevails, the financial cost affordable, as car loans could really be costly. Then an automobile would be for you.

Nina Nesbitt Talks Ex Ed Sheeran + Their Songs About Each Otherby Mandi Salerno | PopCrush
Ed Sheeran has learned a thing or two from his BFF Taylor Swift. Most notably, writing songs about famous ex-lovers.
We've all heard the rumors swirling around the Brit's scathing song 'Don't' — with most fingers pointing to Ellie Goulding as his inspiration — but there's another tune on his hit sophomore album, 'X,' that is linked to a former flame.
Nina Nesbitt, a 19-year-old Scottish singer-songwriter, is the girl behind appropriately-titled track number five, 'Nina.'
This time, the 'Sing' star was kind enough to give some advance notice. "He warned me it was happening," Nina shared with the Daily Record, "but I didn't know it was going on the album. I knew there was a song."
Maybe his warning is what's allowing her to be so calm about the situation, because she added, "I'm not really bothered. It was quite a long time ago, and it's a good song."
Or maybe she's so laid back because she penned a few songs of her own based on their relationship! "I have written quite a few songs about Ed that are on the 'Peroxide' albumm and people can probably guess which ones," Nina revealed. "I'm not going to go into detail about it, but we are both songwriters, so naturally we were going to write songs about each other. It was a long time ago now, and we've both moved on."

Whether it's changing customer demands, compliance with new government regulations, intense competition, or technological advancements, today's market pressures call for constant change within an organization.
Many market pressures require companies to make investments; if not now, in the very near future. Accordingly, access to capital is critical.
Yet given the overall constrained market liquidity, there are fewer borrowing options than ever before, and investor scrutiny of potential investments has increased.
Perhaps nowhere has the need to respond to market pressures and invest in change been more critical than in the food and beverage industry. Business has been experiencing continued growth in areas such as packaged food products, organic foods, and specialty beverages. This growth has accelerated the need for capital to fund expansions and improvements. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), while the food and beverage industry has seen steady growth of its US retail sales, developing nations are creating a rapidly growing demand for US food product exports as a large number of these populations are growing in affluence. This combined growth has created new pressures in the production of food and beverage products at many companies' existing US facilities.
Developing new expansion projects has additional implications that trigger several operational and environmental concerns. Today's air, water and solids effluents management standards by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and state natural resource agencies have become more stringent by the day. More growth means more waste to manage. Often a processing facility's growth can be limited by its ability to consistently manage its waste streams.
Compounding the matter are elements external to operations that affect a processor's ability to effectively manage its waste streams, namely the municipal treatment facilities that food and beverage companies rely on. Many treatment plants are already at their prescribed federal and state limits for daily phosphorus, Biological Oxygen Demand, and nitrogen levels, resulting in excess surcharges to processors. What's more, scores of municipalities have aging infrastructures, with many built 50 years ago. According to a 2009 "U.S. Conference of Mayors Metropolitan Infrastructure Sustainability Study" prepared by GlobeScan and sponsored by Siemens Corporation, three in five cities (59%) identify the lack of funding to meet infrastructure needs as a serious challenge.
Processors aren't likely to see a municipal remedy any time in the near future, if at all. Many municipalities are unwilling and unable to take on debt, particularly given the current economy and the sentiments of already burdened taxpayers. Most municipalities also fear the consequences of incurring debt in order to accommodate a single, major industrial customer only to risk bankruptcy should that customer leave town or shutter its doors—a scenario that's playing out in many parts of the country.
Add to this the pressures to comply with upcoming EPA or state requirements on CO2 emissions and it's easy to see why food and beverage organizations are feeling unusually challenged. For processors, addressing the byproduct issue with initiatives to treat their own waste streams isn't considered the best use of capital in today's climate. Investing and expanding the scope of non-core operations is an uncomfortable proposition for management—the move doesn't typically support sufficient returns to warrant such an investment. This leaves few options for the producer to effectively grow in size or expand product diversity while remaining competitive.
Nevertheless, the ultimate responsibility of managing these waste streams still falls to the processors. The fact is, the cost of growth must consider the full cost of handling the waste streams inherent in additional production.
There is a way to fund an expansion or improvement project and reduce the amount of cash needed. To do so, companies must consider a full range of nontraditional financing opportunities.
Tax credits and other government incentives are underutilized avenues to new capital needed for increasing market share and maintaining a competitive edge. They can lower a company's financing costs, increase investment returns, and enhance cash flow.
Numerous incentives are available to encourage capital infusions and investments in a business, at various stages in the business cycle. Tax credits like the New Markets Tax Credits (NMTC) can present the ideal approach for taking an expansion project off the shelf, subsidizing that investment, while also meeting environmental regulations, resourcefully. Enacted in 2000, the NMTC program encourages investment in economically distressed areas by offering a tax credit that when monetized, can sometimes result in a benefit of up to 20 percent of the total project cost.
In the new economy, companies must take a comprehensive and nontraditional approach to capital. Tax credits and incentives can be the key in the overall equation, but timing is critical as some are due to expire or may undergo changes in benefits. By further creating a public/private collaboration, a company can develop an opportunity for expansion that also creates a competitive value proposition for the organization.
To make that financial strategy a reality requires an understanding of the various intricacies of credits and incentives, both at federal and state levels. It's one thing to qualify for funding; securing it is entirely different. Be cognizant that other project development decisions you make can impact whether or not maximum tax credit benefits will be realized.
Applying for credits and incentives and optimizing their benefits is a process, to be sure. But the ability to bring growth plans to life at a significant cost reduction is more than worth the time and effort.
Nontraditional financing is now playing a bigger role in turning shelved projects into reality. Today's new mix of financing includes a host of other state and federal revenue sources. By maximizing tax and financial incentives in the mix, companies can lower capital and owner investment, allow for more successful outcomes, and provide an opportunity to expand a project without expending additional funds.

We strongly encourage potential speakers to submit more than one submission on more than one topic. The more submissions you contribute, the more options you give us to pick you. Be sure your talk title and abstract define the exact topic you want to talk about and what you hope people will learn from the session. Make your CFP title descriptive and save creative titles for the event. In previous years, some submissions sounded interesting but we just didn't have enough detail for them to make the final cut.
We love our speakers, and aim to treat speakers as good or better than any other conference you will speak at. We don't pay a stipend, but we will cover all costs, so you won't have any expenses out of pocket to speak at 200OK.
These are some example topics to get you started, but are by no means an exhaustive list of what could be presented. Get creative! We love to hear about new and different topics.
This is how we will select the proposals:

BATH, Maine — Handing slices of pizza from the kitchen to waiting customers at The Cabin restaurant Wednesday, first lady Ann LePage said, "This is the place to come, from what I hear."
LePage delivered slices of pizza just after the lunchtime whistle blew in the Bath Iron Works shipyard.
"White, cheese and pepperoni, right?" LePage asked restaurant owner Paul Hasenfus. "Don't fire me yet."
"It was always a joke that one thing I've never done is be a waitress," LePage said before the lunchtime crowd arrived. "My husband tells me I couldn't make it as a bartender because I'm too judgmental. I'd always be telling people, 'You should be home with your wife.'"
LePage asked to tour the shipyard, BIW spokesman Jim DeMartini said Wednesday.
"And naturally we said we'd be happy to have her come aboard," he said.
"[BIW] is amazing," LePage said. "They handle pieces of the ships like they are Tonka trucks."
The tour reminded her of the nearly 14 years she worked at Scott Paper in Winslow, she said, where she met her husband, who at the time was a consultant.
"He was what my dad always called a 'white collar,'" she said, smiling. "My dad said, 'Ann, for god's sake, he's a white collar. He doesn't know how to work.'"
After her time at BIW, LePage went to The Cabin on Washington Street, which next month will celebrate its 40th year in business.
"There is so much rich history in Bath. For over two centuries, ships have been built in this town; and today, Bath hosts one of Maine's largest employers," LePage said in a prepared statement before her visit. "The downtown and small businesses are still thriving. I want to congratulate Paul Hasenfus on 40 years of successfully serving the Bath community and thank him for the opportunity to come and experience life at The Cabin during their busy lunchtime!"
LePage chatted with employees and the occasional customer, although most seemed not to know she was there.
She even offered to play matchmaker for Hasenfus, telling him, "That's my specialty, fixing people up."
As the first workers trickled in for lunch, LePage had the delivery down. But she warned, laughing, "When that whistle blows, I'm going to go into cardiac arrest."

Buzzy the donkey has "one balloon"; his rabbit friend has "some balloons"; together with their hot-air balloon–flying alligator pal, they have "many balloons." Bolam's bright, sharply outlined characters brim with energy; each spread makes its concept manifest, with gentle humor. A winner.

Broadheads that bow hunters choose seems like an area where there's plenty of fantasy and marketing, and very little substance. Realistic differences between broadheads out there is more academic and marketing than real performance. For a bow that won't tune well with a fixed broadhead, expandable broadheads can be an answer. For traditional or low weight pull bows, cut on contact broadheads may give better penetration. For everyone else, almost any fixed, chizelled tip broadhead will kill your deer or moose if you do your part. At the very lowest price/quality, weight and concentricity can hurt your accuracy a bit. Some of the cheaper broadheads also have lame locking mechanisms that may mean losing a blade inside a deer. But anything above that is gravy, and as an inexpensive, yet moderate quality broadhead, Cabela's FX3 broadhead do the trick.
I chose 100 grain broadheads, and these came with a 3 blade, 1 1/8″ cutting diameter. I really liked the feel of the blades as they felt strong enough to withstand hitting bone and not bend or dull instantly. The lock washer that fits over the blades at the back of the shank was also sturdy enough to keep the blades from kicking out.
Trocar Tip
The trocar tip on the FX3 is meant to provide a sharp point that glides past bone. Originally designed for medical applications, trocars were meant for surgery where minimal resistance was required. In a hunting application, the trocar tip provides a path for the rest of the arrow to follow while the blades do the real damage. They offer a bit more resistance than some of the cut on contact broadheads, but they are really durable and don't expend as much energy on contact with bone. Modern bows in a 60-70lb pull will have more than enough power to still drive a trocar tipped arrow right through a deer or moose on any sane shot, so I don't find the slight cutting advantage to be useful.
I test shot all 6 broadheads with a Diamond Outlaw from distances of 20 and 40 yards. While point of impact changed slightly compared to field points, I found that accuracy was still about 90% that of the field points. I did fire them through some paper to paper tune the bow to the broadheads, but found that further tuning of the bow was unnecessary.
Ultimately, I'd recommend that any beginning bow hunter buy 6 of their desired broadheads. The 3 that come in most packages is really cutting it close. Make any mistake firing the broadheads at a target and you'll be down to 1 or 2 hunting ready arrows only. The 6 that come in this package for $25 will ensure you have the same heads that you practice with ready for the hunt.

Yes, the Fonz kissed little old me – cookie baker.
Henry Winkler came to Bainbridge Island last Sunday to read from his children book series (Hank Zipzer) about a boy with dyslexia. And I was there handing out My Kids' Cookies at the event and listening to him speak.
Words to describe him: intelligent, eloquent, funny, entertaining, adorable and engaging.
After speaking about himself, his childhood as a NYC kid in the public school system, his career, his family, Happy Days, and more, he read from his latest (and last) book in the series. Then he sat down to sign autographs.
Over 400 people of all ages showed up to hear him speak and at least half that number got in line for an autograph. He took time with each person, posed for photos, chatted with the kids and was so very gracious.
Now to explain how I got my kiss.
I gave the Fonz a cookie. I sent a double rich white chocolate cookie in a gift box back to Mr. Winkler before he was introduced. While he was busy signing books, I stepped up to take his picture. He turned to me. This was our conversation:
Henry: "Hi there, Did you make the cookie?"
Me: "Yes."
Henry: "Thank you, it was delicious."
Me: (smiling like a loon.)
At the end of the book signing, I hopped on the line to get my book autographed and get a picture with him. He pulled me towards him and planted a wonderful kiss on my left cheek. Then he posed and I got my treasured photo.
Thank you Fonzie!!!

Great pattern for heavy or light fabric.
Love it. Another great pattern from lily bird

BOSTON, Mass. – Led by Malik Lorquet's (Sharon, Mass.) 18 points and 10 rebounds men's basketball earned a huge conference win on senior day as the Beacons defeated intra-state rival UMass Dartmouth by the final of 87-79 Wednesday evening at the Clark Athletic Center Gymnasium.
UMass Boston 87, UMass Dartmouth 79
UMass Boston (12-11, 7-8 Little East Conference)
UMass Dartmouth (17-7, 11-4 Little East Conference)
Despite controlling all of the first half, the Beacons had to hold off a second half rally by the Corsairs, as UMD eliminated the Beacons comfortable double-digit lead around the midway point. Thanks to an 11-4 run over a three-minute span, UMass Dartmouth found themselves within one following a Marcus Azor lay-up.
However, UMB used their long range shooting to quickly regain a multi-possession lead as they erupted for three straight 3-pointers, and which was capped-off by lay-ups from Charles Mitchell (Boston, Mass.) and Javaris Hill (Lynn, Mass.). Following the lay-in by Hill, UMass Boston had increased their lead to 12 (63-51) with just over nine to play in the contest.
Despite the quick turnaround, the Corsairs continued to battle back keep the Beacons within reach through the final seven minutes of the contest. The Beacons secured the win thanks to seven made free throws over the final 40+ seconds. A pair of made free throws by Michael Boyd (Malden, Mass.) sealed the win, as the Beacons kept their postseason dreams alive with the victory.
In front of a huge crowd, the Beacons completely controlled the first half as they outscored the Corsairs 40-27. From the field, the Beacons could not miss as they shot 64%, 55.6% from 3-point range. UMass Dartmouth shot just 26% in the opening stanza.
After the break, the Beacons continued to make key baskets to keep their lead intact. The Beacons shot an impressive 14-20 from the line over the final half, with Boyd going a perfect 6-for-6.
Dasan Cinelli (Boston, Mass.) also had a huge game for the Beacons, as he finished with 18 points on 7-of-8 shooting, which included a 3-for-3 performance from behind the arc. Hill dropped in 14 points and had three blocked shots, two steals, and three assists in a team-best 33 minutes of playing time. Lorquet led all players with four blocked shots.
Of UMass Boston 87 points, 37 came from their bench, while an additional 38 points came from inside the paint to cap-off one UMB's best all-around performances of the season.
Atakan Akcam had the lone double-double for the Corsairs with 19 points and 10 rebounds. Azor finished with 16 points and had a team-high four rebounds.
- With the win the Beacons have now won four of their last five meetings with the Corsairs
- On the night the Beacons shot 53.4% from the field and 57.1% from 3-point range
- The Beacons held a 46-39 advantage on the glass
- Their combined nine blocked shots was a season-high
- Wednesday's contest marked the final home regular-season contest for Robert Nascimento, who had two rebounds and two points in the contest
The Beacons will close out the regular season this Saturday at Rhode Island College at 3 p.m.

Now it is almost 3 years I have been taking this supplement. I came to know this product from my sister in law's neighbor who leaves in Penang. She asked my wife to find the place where she can get this supplement cheaper. Through the address on the bottle pack we tried to search for the place and finally we found it near Bukit Bintang in Kuala Lumpur. It's quite expensive because it is a Multi Level Marketing product, so I have to become a member of Natstar so that I can get it at a cheaper price.

From cancer to aging, heart disease to diabetes, anthocyanin's usefulness in protecting many body systems is becoming well established in the scientific world.

Many of the pigments responsible for the color of fruits and vegetables are the best sources of antioxidants. That's why health experts are recommending us to consume at least 5 servings of 5 different coloured fruits and vegetables every day in order to stay healthy.
A wealth of scientific evidence has determined that the body's formation of unstable oxygen molecules called free radicals is the cause of over 60 degenerative diseases. When you have too few antioxidants to counteract your free radicals, significant damage can occur, leading to a variety of diseases, ranging from stroke and fibromyalgia, to sinusitis, arthritis, vision problems, and even Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease.
A poor diet, cigarette smoking, environmental pollutants, and ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun also increase the free-radical load, creating a situation known as "oxidative stress." The same process that causes iron to rust and cut apples to turn brown is happening in every cell in our body.
It is estimated that each of the 60 trillion cells in the human body take 10,000 oxidative "hits" every day! One cigarette is said to unleash 3 trillion free radicals into the blood stream. Luckily, our body does have a defense system against these rogue "oxidant" compounds: antioxidants. Found in numerous fruits and vegetables, antioxidants literally "mop up" free radicals.
However, free radicals are generated at such a pace due to our modern lifesyles that food alone can't provide all the antioxidant ammunition our body needs. Most people do not consume the recommended 5 or more servings of 5-colour fruits and vegetables everyday to receive our antioxidant requirements.
Antioxidants such as A, C and E help neutralize free radicals but their contribution is minimal. A molecule of vitamin C or E can only deactivate one free radical at a time. When vitamin E donates hydrogen to neutralise free radicals, it turns into vitamin E radical and becomes ineffective.
Is there another alternative?
Anthocyanins are natural substances that provide pigmentation (colour) to fruits and vegetables, in particular berries, and serve as a powerful natural antioxidant. Sunlight is necessary for photosynthesis but it creates free radicals that can damage the plant. These pigments act as antioxidants for their own natural defense to prevent the plants from damage.
Similarly, anthocyanins act to promote health and prevent chronic disease by scavenging free radicals to prevent them from harming the normal components of the cell in the human body. Several studies have shown that berries, which are rich in anthocyanins, possess potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-aging, anti-carcinogenic and anti-diabetic properties. Researchers at the United States Dept. of Agriculture,
have found that blueberries rank #1 in antioxidant activity when compared to a list of 40 other fresh fruits and vegetables. Human Nutrition Center
How is OPTIVIN™ different?
More than 20 combinations of berry extracts were formulated and evaluated to determine the safest and most efficacious combination. By combining some of the most well researched berries into a highly potent formulation, Optivin™ provides a broader spectrum of antioxidants than any other individual berry extract. The different chemical profiles contained in OPTIVIN™ makes it a potent free radical quencher.

Instead of the avocado, I used chickpeas, high protein, high fiber, total awesomeness. I don't have ANYTHING against avocado nor am I on a no avocado kick (hell no!) but I had leftover chickpeas and wanted to experiment with them. Like I said before, I wanted to make this batter into brownies, which I may still do, but I was feeling under the weather and only felt like eating pudding. This is a great alternative to chocolate avocado pudding and is just as tasty and nutritious. I sprinkled my pudding with hemp seeds after I scooped it in a bowl. Onto the recipe!
1/2 cup of cooked chickpeas
2 very ripe bananas, peeled
1/4 cup of cocoa or cacao powder
1/4 cup of peanut or any nut butter
2 tbsp of coconut sugar
Peel the bananas and add them to your food processor and put in the other ingredients as well. Make sure the bananas are completely processed and the pudding is completely smooth before scooping it out of the food processor. You can let it process for a little while you scrape down the sides so that the pudding is completely smooth. Scoop into a bowl and add any toppings (or none) if you wish.
Notes: you can use less nut butter and eliminate the coconut sugar. You can use an avocado instead of the chickpeas. Top with hemp seeds, cacao nibs, coconut flakes or anything else that puts a smile on your face.

In case you were wondering...
So...here's a thing: Every human on Earth has at least one thing in common.
"What?! EVERY HUMAN? What could this possibly be?" you ask.
Here it is: All humans have skin.
Shocker. I know. And as a bath products company, we happen to love your skin. And we want you to love your skin. And we don't care what kind of skin it is.
Here in the great state of Indiana, we've noticed some things about...business.
Indiana is a state known for "Hoosier Hospitality." I (M. Elizabeth) have lived in Indiana for 95% of my life and have found this sentiment, for the most part, to be true.
Except...for a huge group of people.
The LGBTQ community is constantly faced with all sorts of (in my opinion) ridiculous things:
Legislative action against the ENTIRE LGBTQ community.
Transgender folks dealing with bathroom "rules."
Businesses feeling that their religious freedoms are "violated" because a gay couple wants a pretty wedding cake.
I could go on.
I mean. It's kinda crazy. Clearly, my opinion is humble (har-de-har-har).
This post is putting it on record that we truly, honestly want to help EVERYONE have awesome baths, relaxing showers, soft skin and (if they'd like) be covered in glitter.
Gay skin.
Black skin.
Brown skin.
Lesbian skin.
Baby skin.
Kid skin.
That really awesome mocha colored skin.
Cross dressing skin.
Drag skin.
Porcelain skin.
Olive skin.
Transgender skin.
Male skin.
Female skin.
Senior Citizen skin.
Middle aged skin.
Queer skin.
Confused skin.
Seriously, all skin. We serve it all.

Over the past month, I have established to my own satisfaction that if I schedule things, I can get them done. And I already know I can work hard even when I'm by myself, even without someone standing over me. Unfortunately, I have also established that if I don't schedule writing fiction for the first thing on my schedule, it falls off the end and gets put on the next day's task list, and so on and so on ad infinitum, because I'm likely to do less important things like clear my mailboxes, pay bills, and go for long walks first.*
So I am going to camp.
For an hour a day.
It's Camp NaNoWriMo. Yes, that's a thing. You may know about National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), which happens in November; during that month, participants commit themselves to writing a novel of at least 50,000 words, posting updates as they go. I've "won" that challenge twice, and as a result two of my three completed manuscripts were mostly written over the course of a crazed month focusing only on word count and not waiting for inspiration.†
Camp NaNoWriMo is slightly different. It's in July, for one thing. And you don't have to commit to word count. You can do minutes, lines, pages, or hours. I'm committing to an hour a day of revision.
And I can do it online, which works for me.
You can work on your own, form a "cabin" of fellow writers, or do as I did, which is let the camp assign me to a random cabin. I never went to camp myself as a kid, but so far it seems like a friendly bunch in my cabin. No wedgies. No short-sheeting.
My project? I'm revising the first novel I wrote for NaNoWriMo, which introduced a main character I like. She is the main character in another manuscript I've written, and she can support several more, plus some short stories. I knew when I finished the first rough draft that I had something basically publishable, but that was when I discovered that my agent had died and that his business partner was not really working as an agent any more.‡
Right now, the work I'm doing in my hour a day of camp is re-reading a printout of the draft and doing a blow-by-blow synopsis. Because of the way it was written, in a scramble, the action doesn't rise; instead, it sort of scrambles, circles, and pops characters up like whack-a-moles.§ Once I've reverse-outlined it, I will be able to see how I can foreshadow, escalate the action and develop the themes.
Or that's the idea, anyway.
One hour down. Tomorrow I will be on a plane half the day, but one of the legs of the trip is long enough that I can work for an hour then, too.‖
It's not too late to start, if you want to go to camp yourself. You can just start today It's free.** And you don't need to pack or get any vaccinations.
* I'm sort of retired (I adjunct teach one day a week). But I work hard. The problem is that I have difficulty setting my priorities. I set myself all kinds of projects and they take over my life. For instance, I handwrite in my journal every day, and I type up my old journals. I expended considerable effort in pruning down my to-be-read pile and, now that I'm down to one active book at a time, I'm reading a lot more (teaching full time murdered my reading). I engage in political activism. I fence, and train a couple of days a week, and I'm about to go off to Salt Lake City to the Summer National Championships so that I can qualify for the world championships Over-60 women's sabre team.¶
† I also recommend doing NaNoWriMo proper in November, if you're interested. You just write and aim for word count, not quality. If you can't think of anything to write, you can describe a setting in excruciating detail, go off on a tangent, or have your characters engage in a long pointless conversation. It's very freeing. Many people who probably would never consider themselves novelists have completed books that way.
‡ He was very apologetic. I have realized it was probably a good thing, because the book is very much not ready and the publishing scene has changed considerably since the first time I was published.
§ That's the downside of just aiming for word count. Or perhaps it's just how I write. Readers have commented that my plot was a little haphazard in my first book, even though it did well otherwise.
‖ I hate flying. Hate it. And I'm not a big fan of travel in general. My ADHD means that planning for a trip is an exercise of incoherent anxiety. I have never been to Salt Lake City before, and I hear it's very interesting, but I won't get to see much of it and apparently the temperature is in the 100s anyway so I won't go outside. Being a fencer means your national competitions are scheduled for off-season EVERYWHERE and you spend all of your time in the convention center in San Jose with the same people you saw last month in Baltimore.
¶ Yes, they have World Championships for old fencers. It's wonderful being in a small sport. I have been competing nationally for over twenty years, despite not starting until I was in my 40s. This year, the Worlds are in Slovenia. I hear it's very pretty. I won't see much of it because I'll be inside and because I don't have much money to spare for sightseeing.
**Donations are encouraged, of course. I just gave them $30.

Panel OKs school amendment to Kan. constitution
Legislators want to put amendment before voters
A Senate committee has endorsed a proposal to amend the Kansas Constitution to give only the Legislature the authority to determine funding for public schools, rather than the courts.
The voice vote Tuesday by the Senate Judiciary Committee sends the measure to the GOP-controlled Senate for debate. Republicans outnumber Democrats 32-8.
Supporters said changing the constitution would limit the power of the state's judicial branch to review lawsuits over school funding.
A Shawnee County District Court ruled in January that the state's system for school finance was unconstitutional. The court ordered legislators to increase spending by more than $440 million for the next school year.
Legislators want to put the constitutional amendment before voters in the August 2014 primary.

A senior European official on Wednesday painted an alarming picture for Israel if Mideast peace efforts fail, saying the country could face deepening economic isolation if it presses forward with construction of Jewish settlements.The comments by EU Ambassador Lars Faaborg-Andersen were the latest salvo in an increasingly contentious war of words between Israel and the European Union over settlement construction. Last week, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused the EU of unfairly singling out Israel for settlement construction while ignoring Palestinian transgressions. The European Union has said that if talks fail because of settlement construction, it will hold Israel responsible.Last week, several EU members summoned local Israeli ambassadors to protest settlement construction.Israel responded by summoning locally based European ambassadors to voice its displeasure, and Netanyahu accused the EU of hypocrisy by singling out Israel while ignoring alleged Palestinian incitement against Israel. Israel's deputy foreign minister, Zeev Elkin, said Wednesday that he had met with Faaborg-Andersen and expressed his "disappointment" over what he called the EU's one-sided approach toward Israel.
