I have contacted a number of automotive deliver websites and they have given me some right information on all forms of truck covers, there positive are a lot of alternatives. There are many truck cowl websites and it has come to be very hard to pick out which sort is nice for my truck, one cowl website advised me they have got a bubble cowl which you drive your truck into and then close up and inflate with air like a massive bubble, but this cowl isn't always made for the outdoors, then there are covers of a wide variety from low charge one layer too multi layer very expensive covers. After someday spent removing the covers and websites that were not for me or my truck, I found a super internet site. The website has plenty of properly data on their covers and their pricing is truthful. Also, they stand at the back of there product with a 30 day cash lower back guarantee. After talking to their income person they defined that the Elite Supreme 4 layer Waterproof Cover might paintings great for my truck and comes with a three yr warranty, a loose cable lock and garage bag. This cowl has four layers, the first three layers shield your car from all climate types from the solar rays to the wet and snowy weather, and the 4th layer is manufactured from fleece to shield your motors end so you don't get the ones spider web scratches to your clear coat.

Evening at the Playground
These were taken a while ago at the sledding hill playground in South Nashua... the one near Lilac Blossom (to which we went for dinner tonight, but alas it was raining AGAIN so no playground time for Bobo). It's just about a minute away from our old apartment in Royal Crest, and I didn't even realize there was one there until Mom mentioned it.
Bobo had a great time! There was enough stuff kids his size (under 2) that he could run around and do things and not get into too much trouble... but of course then he wanted to climb on EVERYTHING, including the big structures that have steep drops and very tall slides!
We're going to go back as soon as the Great Flood ceases... it's been raining for almost 40 days straight here, talk about a fun way to spend a June... and on the two non-rainy days we've had the bugs outside have been RAVENOUS and will attack anything that moves, so that's no fun at all. :/

"Normal", church, gyms, anxiety, babies. So. The topics you've come to expect.
September 24, 2015
SOOOOOO everything should be good, now, right? Kids are in school AND taking the bus, which is pretty neato for all of us. Emma goes to preschool on Tuesdays and Thursdays. She'll start going MWF if a spot ever opens up, but honestly, I'm already over the driving schedule on Tuesdays and Thursdays so I'm not in a huge hurry for her to switch. And when they're all out and occupied I've been grocery shopping, drying and folding laundry (not just leaving it in the washing machine to mold for days on end) (you do this too, don't lie), and also a lot of staring at blank walls which is something I feel I deserve. At least for a little while.
Like the gym? Yeah. I thought Emma HAD a MWF preschool schedule so I was going to do the gym each of those mornings. But she didn't get a spot (fine) and now I only have TWO Emma-free mornings and that feels like so much less time than THREE Emma-free mornings. Also, on one of those mornings I somehow mostly-committed myself to what I thought was a bible study. At the time I thought Emma could go with me and be in the new co-opy childcare set up (Catholic churches: Y NO BABYSITTERS?) and we would have four out of five mornings nicely scheduled up, but now I'm all WAIT. I'm going to be spending one of my only two kid-free mornings HERE? It's not a bible study either, it's a lay Dominican spirituality class (my church is a Dominican church. Parish. Something or other.) Which is cool if you are into that sort of thing, but I think I am not? I liked the lady leading it, but all the kid noise was distracting and several times I found myself thinking, "I COULD just read a BOOK." Of course, the point was to MEET some of the other women at my church because I'm actually ready to stop being a crotchety run-away-as-soon-as-Mass-is-over Catholic. But I don't know. One of the few women I know at my church is the ORGANIZER of this ministry thing, so I could just say HEY, plz invite me over for talking and wine with the other ladies. Then I wouldn't have to learn about St. Dominic.
Anyway. It will take a bit for me to figure things out, I guess. I decided that next week is the week I make myself go to the gym and get back to the place where I LIKED going to the gym and it felt like a regular part of my week. Oh, this reminds me to update you on my Dosage Lowering Experiment. I was supposed to go down one step, and if I was feeling fine after a month, go down another step. Well, I haven't gone down the second step. It isn't that I'm experiencing anxiety, but I feel like I'm hovering in the place where I could easily tip over the edge. Sometimes it feels like an actual LINE, or a FENCE even, that I'm sitting on top of. A feather could knock me into the abyss. I'm not QUITE on that fence yet, but I feel like going down another step MIGHT put me there. This may not make sense unless you are crazy like me. But I'm trying to reason with myself. I could try it and see what happens. But I could also NOT try. It's not like I HAVE to try. It's not like anyone's out there pushing me to try or shaming me into it... except my own self. I really think the only hope I have for losing this weight is to consume less of this medication. But... it seems I'm not just SAYING "not anxious is better than skinny", but am actually living it out.
I might take that step down still. I haven't completely decided. My brain doctor is out on maternity leave and there's no appointment set up for me to say definitively what's going on. I have space. I like that.
And quite honestly, the only thing fattening up this much as really changed about my life is that it's much harder to find clothes I feel good in. Which is a big deal, but not the hugest deal. I can still find SOME cute things. I don't ALWAYS feel like a whale. I haven't, you know, lost any friends or been kicked out of parties.
I suppose there's the looming specter of diabetes. HEH.
All the moms I know are exhausted. We're all feeling a little guilty, because HELLO, school was supposed to solve all our problems. But the starting of school - getting up early, making lunches, homework, piano practice, shoehorning everyone back into that routine - is sort of exhausting! We are HAPPIER, but man we're tired. Phillip wants to take the big kids to do some outdoorsy thing with friends on Saturday and because I avoid outdoorsy things like the plague and Phillip doesn't want to deal with the still un-potty-trained four-year-old, Emma and I are going to have a nice long boring day by ourselves.
Did I forget to tell you my baby is four? My baby is four. That birth story from hell is now four years old. I know I'm still not over it because every time someone tells me THEIR birth story my whole body contracts in fear. But my baby is FOUR. I am delighted by her every day, and also kind of heartbroken. I've got big kids now. All big kids. I'm good with babies. I'm a good mom to babies. There are a lot of babies in my family, but none close by. No one has a baby I can just borrow for a few hours to tamp that feeling down. I told Phillip last night and he was super jokey and dismissive and I got MAD. This is a real feeling. And I'm not saying I want to have another one, but I also don't feel done with taking care of them. So I don't know what to do with that.
OKAY I THINK I'LL STOP NOW! Time to throw some pizza at the kids and head to a [deep breath] PTA meeting. WOO HOO!

The EvCC women's basketball team opened up North Region play on Wednesday night with a 77-72 loss to the Skagit Valley Cardinals. Despite outshooting SVC, the Trojans were out rebounded 45 -28, and the difference in this game was on the glass allowing the Cardinals 20 second chance points. Another hill to climb was putting Skagit on the line 21 times, of which they converted on 17 of those free throws. Combine those 17 points with the 20 second chance points and Skagit was gifted 37 out of their total 77 points.
Once again the top offensive performers for the Trojans were Serafina Balderas who scored 28 points, making 8 of 19 three pointers, and Hannah Hezekiah dropped 20 points and was the largest contributor on the glass with 13 rebounds.
Other positives from last nights contest were that the Trojans shot the ball relatively well from the floor shooting 44% and limited turnovers to just six for the entire game.
Heading into this weekend, Everett will come home to face Whatcom CC who is coming off of a 51-55 home loss to Olympic. Improvement will need to be made on the boards as Whatcom currently sits #1 in the NWAC averaging 50 rebounds per game.

China Continues Pushing its Own Next-Gen DVD Format
But wait, there's more in new formats. China, the most populous nation on the planet with about 1.3 billion people, has taken another step toward creating its own version of the current HD DVD format, dubbed CH-DVD. In the end, that may be good news for the HD DVD camp in the rest of the world, and not so good for Blu-ray backers.
China has attempted, often with little success, to create or establish its own formats (or versions of established technical formats) from time to time. So exactly how successful this latest gambit may be is still anyone's guess, according to Ars Technica.
The slight alteration in the HD DVD format would still use blue-laser technology and could provide a boost to the regular HD DVD format if China can manufacture regular HD DVD discs along with its own CH-DVDs. The format would remain proprietary as the intellectual property of China and be used only inside the Communist country,
Such a potentially cost-effective production arrangement for the HD DVD makers could prove troublesome for Blu-ray, whose format is more costly to initially set up for assembly line production and to manufacture—although the possibility of China also mass-producing Blu-ray packaged content is hardly out of the question.
China, if successful, plans to launch CH-DVD inside the country sometime in 2008.

China's first space station might be in freefall in space and on its way to crashing back down to Earth.
The Tiangong-1 satellite was launched in 2011, and should have come back down to Earth in the ocean in a controlled crash. But watchers have said that it now appears to have gone into freewill, with China losing control of it, and so it could crash down onto the Earth any time.
Like other lost satellites, it's likely that the freefalling station would burn up on its way back into Earth and come back down as molten metal rather than with a big crash. But people have warned that it could still be a "real bad day" if the rocket fell back down to Earth, "but odds are it will land in the ocean or in an unpopulated area".
The huge size of the satellite mean that parts of it could still make their way through the searing heat of entry back into the atmosphere, and so cause problems when they arrive back on Earth.

Packers must continue to ride Eddie Lacy with Rodgers out
When the Green Bay Packers drafted running back Eddie Lacy at the end of the second round of last year's NFL Draft, many pundits believed that league's model franchise had gotten great value at a position of need.
As it turns out, the Packers need Lacy more than ever. On Tuesday, quarterback Aaron Rodgers confirmed that he broke his left (non-throwing) collarbone in Monday night's 27-20 loss to the Chicago Bears. The 2011 MVP estimated that he would be out from three to six weeks.
MORE: Rodgers confirms injury | Iyer on Rodgers' impact | Packers lose | Three-way tie atop NFC North
Enter Lacy, who came back from the Pack's bye week ready to spearhead Green Bay's rushing attack. Over the last five games, the Alabama product has carried the ball 119 times for 545 yards and three touchdowns.
Monday night's game was his best to date, with 150 yards on 22 carries and a score. More impressive was the fact he produced those yards without Rodgers under center for all but the Packers' first offensive series.
Normally, the Packers' talented receivers, led by Jordy Nelson, James Jones and Randall Cobb, allow the passing game to set up the run. With opposing defenses living in fear of the pass, one would think that any NFL-caliber running back could step in and have success.
That notion never came to fruition in 2012. Despite having the league's ninth-best pass offense, Green Bay ranked 20th in rushing. That lack of a credible ground threat placed a heavy burden on Rodgers to carry the offense through the air.
Now, with Rodgers, Cobb, Jones and tight end Jermichael Finley all injured, the Packers are forced to make their offense more Lacy-centric. Thanks to his recent play, Lacy has shown he can handle the responsibility. Overall, he is eighth in the NFL with 596 rushing yards in seven games. His production has pushed the Packers to second in the league in rushing (148.6 yards per game) while still boasting the sixth-best passing offense (274.4 per game).
Lacy will need to stay stout, because the Rodgers-less passing game obviously will take a hit. Who will fill in for arguably the league's best quarterback is up for debate. Will it be Seneca Wallace, who replaced Rodgers on Monday night, or practice-squad QB Scott Tolzien, who just received a significant raise that will keep him in Green Bay for this season?
Other analysts have speculated about the possiblity of the Packers bringing back former backup Matt Flynn, who was cut by the Buffalo Bills on Monday. There are legitimate questions about Flynn's arm strength, however, and given that Flynn would have to clear waivers, it is likely that another team would try to claim him to block Green Bay.
Before the draft, scouts feared that Lacy, like other Crimson Tide runners, had been overworked in college and would not be able to handle the physical stress of playing in the NFL. Lacy has dispelled that notion by becoming a workhorse, combining a 230-pound frame with a well-crafted spin move.
Now comes the challenge of carrying the Packers' playoff hopes on his very powerful shoulders while Rodgers is out, all while going against defenses that will load up the box with eight or nine players trying to stop him.

white chili
I consider this to be one of my staple dishes. The dish that I can make over and over again and virtually never get sick of. The dish that is synonymous with a cold, snowy night in.
I first had this at a friend's place for a group dinner. Perfect for a large group and a cold, Boston evening. She shared the recipe and the next week I was in the grocery store looking for the ingredients. I was having a few people over for a casual dinner and thought I would try this out.
I clumsily read "chopped green chilies" and looked in the aisles for the corresponding item. Chopped jalapeño chilies? Jalapeños are green, that'll work. Well, the dish I liked went to the dish I loved. Cheese and sour cream on top of this were no longer an option, but a tool necessary for spicy survival. With this said, if spicy ain't your thing, look for the REAL chopped green chilies, which add a nice flavor, but nearly none of the bite. For the in-between version. 1/2 chopped green chilies, 1/2 jalapeño.
I use grated Gruyère as my topping, but I can see Monterey jack being fantastic as well. Serve with a warm, crusty loaf of bread and you've got yourself your next snow day dinner.
White Chili
adapted from a friend's recipe
- 1 tsp lemon pepper
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1/2 tsp salts
- 1 tsp Lawry's or other seasoned salt)
- 1 tsp chopped garlic (2 medium sized cloves)
- 1 medium onion chopped
- 3 cans great northern beans, drained and rinsed(cannellini beans work fine as a substitute)
- 4 chicken breasts (1.5-2lbs)
- 1 1/4 water
- 1 cube of chicken bouillon
- 2 small cans diced jalapeño peppers (see note for "heat" adjustment)
- sour cream (optional)
- shredded cheese (optional)
- olive oil
- Boil chicken breasts–once cooked, shred. This generally takes about 15 minutes.
- In a stockpot (or any deep pot), sauté onion and garlic in a bit of olive oil (about 1-2 tbsp)
- Add everything else.
- Simmer for at least 20 minutes. I generally aim to let it simmer for about 40 minutes. I'm convinced that it allows the flavors to saturate better.
- Garnish with sour cream and shredded cheese.
- Serve with warm, crusty baguette.

Going to use your receipe for my son's school chili cook off. Will call it the klutzychef white chili. Will let you know if it places. I think it will! 🙂

UltrafiltrationA New Approach Toward Mechanical Diuresis in Heart Failure
Author + information
- Published online December 6, 2005.

Dr. Robert C. Bourge, Professor and Director, UAB Division of Cardiovascular Disease, 311 THT, 1900 University Boulevard, Birmingham, Alabama 35294
The congestive symptoms of heart failure are primarily due to fluid retention as a result of an abnormal hemodynamic and neurohormonal status. Since the introduction of the loop diuretic furosemide in the early 1960s, diuretics have been valuable tools in the treatment of volume retention in congestive heart failure (1). However, the routine use of diuretic therapy in patients with congestive heart failure is associated with known untoward effects, including increases in plasma concentration of renin, angiotensin II, and aldosterone and a negative effect on renal function (2,3). There are no large long-term studies with the use of diuretics in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), but several studies have reported a worsened survival in patients chronically treated with diuretics, especially non–potassium-sparing diuretics (4). In this issue of the Journal, two different groups publish the results on the use of ultrafiltration (UF), an alternative method of fluid removal for the relief of congestive symptoms, in patients with decompensated heart failure (5,6).
The concept of the extracorporeal removal of fluid with UF has been reported for over 50 years (7). In the mid-1970s, the use of pump-driven extracorporeal UF was described (8), and not long thereafter its use was described in a cardiac patient (9). By the mid-1980s, the first reports of the use of UF in patients with heart failure were published (10–12). These studies used a large cumbersome hemodialysis machine with blood removal accomplished by a central venous line in a small numbers of markedly volume-overloaded patients with clinical evidence of diuretic resistance. A unique and interesting characteristic of the new device used in the two current studies (System 100, CHF Solutions, Minneapolis, Minnesota) is that it is smaller, portable, and less invasive, requiring only a peripherally inserted 16G 35-cm withdrawal catheter and a regular 16G or 18G 3.5-cm infusion catheter in a major vein system, usually the brachial-cephalic system (13). Ultrafiltration removes water and nonprotein-bound small- and medium-molecular-weight solutes through a semipermeable membrane when hydrostatic pressure, generated by blood pressure or an external blood pump, exceeds oncotic pressure. The fluid removal rate is set by the treating physician and can range between 100 and 500 ml/h. The device does not require an ICU setting or specialized nursing or technical oversight. Ultrafiltration does not seem to change the creatinine or urea concentration so should not be confused with hemodialysis. Ultrafiltration results in a decrease in the ventricular filling pressures without significant changes in renal function (14).
Costanzo et al. (5) report their experience in a small pilot study with early initiation of UF, within hours of admission, in 20 patients with ADHF manifested by volume overload, with clinical evidence of renal insufficiency or somewhat loosely defined diuretic resistance, testing the hypothesis that UF could result in early euvolemia and early discharge (≤3 days) without adverse effects. UF was continued until the patients achieved relief of their presenting symptoms of congestion. The removal of fluid was aggressive, with an average fluid removal of 8.6 ± 4.2 l and a mean decrease in weight of approximately 6 kg at discharge. As expected with the removal of fluid and solute, clinical signs and symptoms and laboratory indices of hypervolemia improved by discharge. The improvement lasted for up to 90 days after initiation of UF; however, loop diuretics use increased with admission and remained higher at all follow-up periods (not statistically different, given the small number of patients in this nonrandomized evaluation). Importantly, there was no apparent deterioration in parameters of renal function, hypotension, or hyperkalemia.
In another study in the Journal, Bart et al. (6) report the results of a randomized but nonblinded trial of usual care vs. usual care and UF in 40 patients admitted with ADHF and evidence of volume overload. Patients in the UF group received an 8-h UF treatment in addition to usual care; however, diuretics were withheld during UF. Dyspnea and CHF symptoms improved in both groups at 24 h, with a slightly greater improvement at 48 h in the UH group. The average volume removal was higher in the UF group at 24 h (4.6 vs. 2.8 l) and 48 h (8.4 vs. 5.3 l). However, weight loss, a surrogate of adequate diuresis and net fluid loss, which was the primary endpoint of the study, was not significantly different between groups. There was one death in the UF group during the 30-day follow-up. Adverse events included catheter infection which required 4-week course of IV antibiotics, and there was a small but significant drop in the hemoglobin in the treatment group, the opposite of what could be expected during aggressive diuresis. The fact that UF was limited to a single 8-hour session may have contributed to the lack of significant weight loss, and the net fluid loss is not as impressive as in the study by Costanzo et al. (5), where UF was continued until patients reached clinical evidence of euvolemia. The slight decrease in the hemoglobin may have been an effect of this therapy, which the authors theorize as related to bleeding complications from the use of heparin, a complication from line placement, or retention of blood by the device.
From these two studies, we can conclude that UF is probably safe and results in a fast and effective method of fluid and salt removal with a resultant improvement in the symptoms of congestion in patients with CHF and volume overload. Another important effect of UF is a decrease in neurohormonal activity, manifested by declining levels of renin, norepinephrine, and aldosterone, as opposed to the effects seen with diuretic therapy (15). It should be noted that UF is not a substitute for dialysis in patients with renal insufficiency, metabolic abnormalities such as acidosis, uremia, or heart failure resistant to diuresis. The physical properties of the device do not allow removal of waste products.
As with any new treatment modality, there are several questions left unanswered in its early adaptation, despite the approval of the device by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. What type of patient benefits the most from this intervention? Could there be additional unexpected side effects in addition to the slight drop in hemoglobin and the potential of a severe intravenous line infection? Are the beneficial effects, such as the improvement in volume status and decreases in neurohormonal activation and serum BNP, really "long-lasting"? Fortunately, a large multicenter randomized trial is currently under way in which 200 patients with ADHF manifested by volume overload will be randomized to either usual care or usual care plus UF. Although we cautiously welcome the addition of this device-based therapy to effectively improve volume overload and symptoms in patients with congestive heart failure, the results of larger randomized trials should be evaluated carefully, with special attention to adverse effects and the incremental total cost of such therapy.

Why wait for confirmation when you can set the night sky ablaze from your preferred electronic device on your favored social media outlet?
#Raiders…replacing Greg Papa with Brent Musburger is a big mistake. Papa's voice is Raider Football. Must have been something personal.
— Gary Radnich (@KRON4GRadnich) July 17, 2018
As we speak, that's putting the autumn wind ahead of the pirate. Yes, there are reports that Papa is out as Raiders radio play-by-play announcer in favor of Brent Musburger, who reportedly received a three-year contract which would commence in 23 days when the Raiders host the Detroit Lions in an exhibition game at the Coliseum. As we speak, there has been no confirmation.
We take you to Damon Bruce on his Monday afternoon show on 95.7 The Game (where Papa has a show of his own):
"When we called Greg to see if he wanted to cut short his vacation and join us, to talk about it, Greg declined. I don't think Greg would have declined if there was nothing to be explained."
Exactly, Greg wanted to stay in the Bay, he made a business decision & so did the Raiders.
— Why Mark, WHY?? (@William79278472) July 17, 2018
More from Bruce: "Greg texted us to tell us he would be addressing this matter in his own words Monday when he returns from vacation, and he's going to do it on the Greg Papa show."
Ok lol Papa is a raider legend in not saying he's not …. musburger is known around the world to be one of the very best in broadcasting … that's just the facts
— persona non grata (@ROLLINRAIDER) July 17, 2018
This much is true — Musburger was omnipresent during the 1970s, with his signature opening, "You're looking live! … " Other icons of the 1970s: Disco, the Ford Pinto, AstroTurf, inflation, harvest gold appliances and streaking.
He's 79 yrs old. Yes he is a high profile name, but how many years does he have left? 2, 3? Then what another announcer? Seems to me if it ain't broke don't fix it.

With analyst Phyllis George. https://t.co/LOAVHjqrrc
— Gary Peterson (@garyscribe) July 17, 2018
Whoa, how did that sneak in there?
Don't know about you, but my last (and lasting) impression of Musburger was his creepy fascination with LSU safety Tyrann Mathieu's nickname during the 2012 BCS championship game. If you missed it 1) congratulations, and 2) it went a little something like this: "Oooo, the Honey Badger!" "There goes the Honey Badger!!" "Did you see the Honey Badger?!?!?"
Compare and contrast that with this lasting impression from Greg Papa's 25 years as voice of the Raiders:
This Greg Papa call will sit with me forever. Thank you Papa. #Raiders pic.twitter.com/tKl78XUR0f

Author: Charlie Hore
Source: Issue 61 of INTERNATIONAL SOCIALISM JOURNAL Published Winter 1993
"Jazz music has become one of the 20th century's most important and enduring art forms. Yet it survives today in a paradoxical state. On the one hand, the audience for jazz is now larger and more diverse, both socially and geographically, than ever before. Millions of people who don't see themselves as jazz fans regularly listen to live jazz, and most people who regularly buy records or CDs own some jazz. Pubs and bars which feature live music will often have jazz one night, rock the next, and folk the night after; and much the same audience will turn up to hear all three. On the other hand, jazz as a constantly innovative and evolving artform is in decline, and has been for the last 20 years. Throughout the 1970s and the 1980s, there were no fundamental developments in the music on the scale of bebop or 1960s 'new jazz'. During that period not one new musician emerged who even remotely approached the stature of figures like Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, Miles Davis or John Coltrane. This is in no way intended to denigrate the many fine artists playing today; it is rather to state the simple fact that jazz has lost its position at the leading edge of musical development to other musical
The point of this article is to attempt an explanation of this decline by looking at the ways in which jazz and other forms of black music grew out of the black American experience, and how these musical forms have changed as a result of changes in black lives and experiences."

All in a days work: Kate the retiree and part-time share trader
Kate is 74 and her diet has changed drastically in the past couple of months "thanks to being diagnosed with Meniere's disease" (an inner ear condition aggravated by salt). She says "My body is thanking me for the change, but my taste buds are not!"
Since the diagnosis, she has drastically reduced her salt intake. A trip to the supermarket now means scanning labels, and although it's a pain at times it is well worth the effort, as failure to do so results in violent dizzy spells and nausea. She finds her taste buds are slowly adapting and she can now taste salt where she couldn't before, to the point where it stings her tongue. However she's struggling to enjoy her meals despite trying to use lots of chilli and herbs to compensate, and has instead turned to sugar! Her reduced enjoyment in eating has resulted in at least a 3kg weight loss. When she's not feeling dizzy she is quite active, walking everywhere and playing bowls twice a week.
One piece wholemeal toast with sugar and saltfree peanut butter. Tea with milk and sweetener, glass of juice made from two squeezed oranges.
Small bowl of yoghurt and stewed fruit. Two plain sweet biscuits.
One piece wholemeal bread topped with roast beef and green salad with no-salt vinaigrette. Couple of squares of dark chocolate.
Small handful of unsalted roasted nuts. Coffee with milk and two plain sweet biscuits. Couple of jube sweets.
Two large gin and tonics with a handful of unsalted chips.
I loathe my dinner now. Small helping of spaghetti bolognese made without salt and a small green salad.
Chocolate-coated mini ice cream on a stick.
Nadia Lim's nutrition quick fix
Salt is made up of sodium chloride (a naturally occurring chemical compound). A high salt diet is strongly linked to an increased rate of high blood pressure, stroke and heart disease — so by significantly reducing your salt intake you're doing your health a favour there too! In the Western world, up to 80 per cent of our salt intake comes from processed foods, so your best bet to reduce your salt intake is to cut out as much processed food as you can (note: bread is generally a high-sodium food) and have more fresh foods. It takes at least 3-4 weeks for your taste buds to adapt to a low-salt diet as food tastes very bland at first. Vinegars, lemon juice and onion and garlic powder (not onion or garlic salt!) can all enhance flavours in your food. There are also salt substitutes available on the market, which are made of potassium chloride — these can interfere with some medical conditions and medications so if you want to try it, consult your doctor first.

Welcome to the second installment of Interviews with Indies! Today we have Anthea, the creator of Sayuri Nail Lacquer, which launches tomorrow. Before the big day, we thought we'd pick her brain and get the behind-the-scenes story…
Who are you? Tell us a bit about yourself.
My name is Anthea, and I'm a self-confessed polishaholic. I have a qualification in fashion design, and I'm currently studying a degree in business (marketing and Japanese) at university.
How did you first get into nail polish?
I had one friend introduce me to nail foils, and another to OPI, which then got me really interested in nail art. The rest is history.
What inspired you to start your own line?
I've always been a creative person, and I really wanted a way to combine my qualification in fashion design with my love of nail polish. Like clothing, nail polish goes through trends. It closely mimics the same colour palettes and textures used in the fashion industry. For me it's a way to express myself.
Where did the name "Sayuri" come from?
It's a Japanese girls' name that I came across during my studies. I thought it was really pretty so it stuck! Depending on the kanji used it can translate to 'small lily', hence the lily flower in my logo.
Tell us all about your logo.
I had artist Laura Goodings create Sayuri for me. I was hoping to capture the essence of who I imagined Sayuri to be, and Laura managed just that. I like to think that she's sweet and gentle, but behind that innocent exterior she's up to mischief.
What are (in your opinion) your best creations?
My favourite polish from my first collection, Streets of Tokyo, would have to be Fairy Kei. I'm loving pastels at the moment and this polish is influenced by the soft, pastel tones of the Fairy Kei fashion style. For anyone avoiding pastels for fear of appearing too 'girly', try layering this one over black. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
Fairy Kei
At the other end of the spectrum, there's Lolita. This one was inspired by the Gothic Lolita style, and I think it's beautiful but haunting. Unfortunately it's a hard one to photograph, but it reflects a stunning garnet flash when it catches the light. Perfect for those who prefer vampy hues.
How do you come up with new polish ideas?
My inspirations usually come from unconventional notions that pop into my head when I least expect it. I guess that's why so many people have described my design aesthetic as 'quirky'. I have no idea if I can pull something off, but I run with it anyway.
What's the best thing about being an indie polish maker?
The freedom to be my own self and not have others telling me what I should and shouldn't be doing. I love that it gives me the ability to grow and learn on my own. Yes, I'll make mistakes along the way, but who hasn't?
What's the worst?
As much I love working things out for myself, working independently means that I'm limited to my own knowledge. I don't have access to some of the resources that larger companies do.
If you could collaborate with anyone in the world on a polish line, who would it be?
I'd love to work with Dee from Rainbow Honey. Rainbow Honey was the first indie label that I became captivated by, and I appreciate that so many of Dee's inspirations are linked to Japanese culture since that's an interest of mine.
What else do you like to do in your spare time (if you have any)?
In my spare time you can usually find me doting on my Siamese cat. He's like a child and if I don't pay him the attention he demands he'll prevent me from getting any work done. When I'm not giving him tummy rubs I'm working on my blog Nailed Obsession.
Oshare (swatched by Anthea over black)
What's the one tip you'd give for perfect nails?
Treat them as jewels, not tools.
What are your picks for the top trends in indie polishes this year?
I think that we're going to see more daring glitter and colour combinations than before. I'm noticing that some indie polish makers are starting to experiment with texture too, so I think that's something that we'll see more of as the year progresses.
Mizuiro (swatched by Anthea over OPI Happy Anniversary)
What is the most important piece of advice you've been given?
"If your dreams don't scare you, they aren't big enough". Don't sell yourself short by taking the easier, safer route. Launching Sayuri hasn't all been fun and games. There have been times when it's been frustrating and there have been setbacks, but without these moments Sayuri wouldn't be here today.

"The best way to protect the sage grouse or the prairie chickens is to sell it to someone." "Is there a shortage of cows in our country? No, because someone owns cows."
Senator and presidential (R) candidate Rand Paul speaking in Elko, Nevada
Greater Sage-grouse need habitat, sagebrush habitat, large unbroken expanses of good habitat with grasses, forbs, insects; a landscape free of disturbance. They are hard-wired to the sagebrush ecosystem and simply can't survive without sage. Captive breeding programs haven't been very successful – and relocating has mixed results – Sage-grouse and 350 other western species still need sagebrush habitat. The only way ranchers can "raise" sage-grouse is by protecting their habitat and we have a government program for those ranchers. It's called the Sage Grouse Initiative and it's a very successful government program. This noble bird of the American West has been here for 25 million years and we have a plan to recover the species. Deal with it.

May 18th is Bike to Work Day, but in fact, everyday that I get to ride is a "bike to work day" for me: a bike writer. Not that I'm always or even often writing about riding (though sometimes I do, for example, here), but I almost always find that the muse meets me part way down the road when I'm out for an early morning or late afternoon spin to the islands or along less-traveled roads through the Francis Marion Forest.
For me, that skinny black seat on my skinny-tired bike is one of my best desk chairs. It's where my mind frees up from to-dos and slips into more playful freewheeling. The repetition of pedal strokes and the rhythm of breathing coax me into fresh imaginative territory, or loosen treasures of memory, sensory nuggets buried beneath quotidian rigamarole. My riding body connects with my writing mind and my creative muscle gets a little workout.
It would help if I could remember the brilliant ideas I had at mile nine by the time I roll back home at mile 29, but sometimes it's enough just to know they bubbled up, ever so fleetingly.
So today, I encourage everyone to Bike to Work, or to bike simply for the sheer joy of feeling wind in your face and fatigue in your quads. For the pleasure of seeing your surroundings from a two-wheeled perspective, of connecting to the sights, sounds, smells of your environment at a human, slow speed scale– something that's very hard to do behind the wheel of a car.
As Walt Whitman wrote in Songs of the Open Road:
|From this hour, freedom!
|From this hour I ordain myself loos'd of limits and imaginary lines,
|Going where I list, my own master, total and absolute,
|Listening to others, and considering well what they say,
|Pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating,
|Gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me.
|I inhale great draughts of space;
|The east and the west are mine, and the north and the south are mine.
|I am larger, better than I thought;
|I did not know I held so much goodness.
And then be sure to bring some of that goodness to celebrate with other Charleston bike-friendly proponents at the "Work to Bike" Party tonite at the Hippodrome, where Satellite Rodeo will be serving up live music, New Belgium will serve up good brew, D'Allesandros will serve up hot 'Za, and bike riders and writers alike will serve up good vibes, 2-wheeled karma, and "great draughts of space" where you, too, might meet the Muse.

Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Industry, Commerce, Agriculture and Fisheries Andrene Collings has underscored the immense potential economic value of the Grow What We Eat ... Eat What We Grow campaign.
She says that every Jamaican can contribute to this campaign by taking part in simple, everyday activities.
"Buying more Jamaican, eating more Jamaican and exporting more Jamaican value-added products will certainly have a positive impact on our economy. Eating Jamaican is about supporting local agriculture. It is about spending your money on fresher, tastier products that have been grown or processed locally instead of being imported from thousands of miles away," she told the recent launch of Eat Jamaican Month.
Collings, who delivered the keynote address at the Jamaica Agricultural Society's (JAS) head office at 67 Church Street, downtown Kingston, reminded the audience that eating Jamaican was much more than a one-month event, but rather, a sustained commitment to long-term national development.
She argued that a sustained commitment by Jamaicans to the campaign could help the country retain jobs, create new ones, and maintain foreign exchange savings.
"With every dollar spent on a non-Jamaican product, we lose about two to four times the development impact that would be gained from spending that same dollar on locally made products.
"Export more. Import less. Support local industry. Buy Jamaican. Eat Jamaican. Clearly, we won't reach where we really need to be overnight, but we are making steady progress and will continue to do a lot better when more Jamaicans support Jamaican businesses, whether in agriculture or in manufacturing."
Collings noted that the significant trade gap between food imports and exports continues to be a cause for concern despite improvements in other areas of trade.
She cited data from the Statistical Institute of Jamaica which showed that the food import bill for January to July 2018 was US$501.6 million, reflecting a 5.4 per cent increase over the corresponding period for 2017.

BOSTON—Senator Eldridge (D-Acton) sponsored and helped pass an amendment that provides $250 thousand for park and playground projects in the City of Marlborough.
"I am pleased that the Senate voted in support of funding that would go towards renovating our playgrounds in Marlborough," said Senator Jamie Eldridge (D-Acton). "Physical activity is so essential to the growth and success of children and it is vital that they can access safe and upgraded playgrounds in their neighborhoods."
These funds will help with a playground replacement on John Street. There is an existing playground that is old and outdated. These funds will also help with the addition of a Splash and Spray area at Ghiloni Park (a very popular Park in Marlborough located on Concord Road).
Neighboring communities such as Northborough and Hudson have splash and spray areas that are very popular with kids and parents on hot days.
Senator Eldridge will continue to advocate for this funding in the budget as the FY16 Senate budget will be sent to conference committee next where House and Senate conferees will meet to continue negotiations on a final version.

By Paul Krueger
It came to me in the form of the above tweet I saw yesterday.
In a hundred and forty characters or less (I'm not going to bother counting), Mr. White's laid his finger on a deeply troubling divide in the world of comic book adaptations. The raccoon with a machine gun is Rocket Raccoon, set to make his onscreen debut in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy next year. Wonder Woman is, theoretically, the third part of DC's so-called "Big Three," even though editorial attentions would suggest that the Flash or Green Lantern better fits the title. One is a prominent heroine with a history of troubled adaptation attempts, while the other is a relatively obscure character getting major studio support on his first try.
Nice, right?
The crazy thing is, though, Wonder Woman's not actually that complicated at all. In fact, there's precious little to separate her character from Thor's; both are warrior figures straight out of mythology books, plunked into the modern world toting some big badass magical artifacts. One of those two characters has a pair of movies in what's presumably going to be a trilogy someday, not to mention an appearance in the third-highest-grossing movie of all time and an appearance in that movie's sequel. The other one is Wonder Woman.
So what's the actual reason we have yet to see a real push for a Wonder Woman film, or really any female-centered superhero film at all, despite the fact that we're currently in a comic book adaptation renaissance? I suppose the simplest possible answer here would be "sexism."
And of course, the simplest answers are so often the best ones.
The continuing success of franchises like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the recently launched all-female X-Men prove there's a thirsty (and possibly growing) market for female-driven superhero stuff. But for every step forward you get, there are reminders that something as funny and true as the Hawkeye Initiative exists for a reason.
Things are hardly better when you get past the source material and into the movies they've become. The X-Men movies aren't terrible on the surface, but the third one took Jean Grey, the most powerful member of their cast, and essentially turned her into a football to be tossed from one side to the other while the men of the cast got to posture impressively and spew platitudes until one side rolled over dead.
Meanwhile, Black Widow got to do some cool things in Iron Man 2 and The Avengers, but most of it was spectacle. Whedon does his best considering her limited powers (which is a whole other column in the offing), but the truth is that Widow is even less essential to The Avengers than the archer that spends half the movie as a bad guy. And that's to say nothing of Catwoman in The Dark Knight Rises, who spends the film scurrying to the protection of one man or another.
In fact, it's troubling but true to say that the only comic book movies where the female leads show any true agency are Catwoman and Elektra, which both rather sucked. But attempting to use those as proof that women can't carry superhero films ignores the existence of both Ghost Riders, all three Punishers, Daredevil, both Fantastic Fours (where Jessica Alba really was just there to look good), Green Lantern, and a variable number of the Spider-Man, Batman, Superman, Blade, Hulk, and X-Men franchises, depending on which fan you ask. Several of those were commercial flops, and most of them were critical ones. So if women have gotten the keys taken away from them for crashing the bus into a ditch twice, what the hell is it going to take on the male side of things?
Now, DC's got a new project in the works: the recently announced Batman/Superman movie, which will presumably be the next barefoot step on the broken-glass-paved path to a Justice League movie. So for two-thirds of DC's Big Three, that'll make it seven films for Superman and eight for Batman. As for that third one, let's put it this way: in our respective lifetimes, Wonder Woman and I have had the exact same amount of movies made about us.
I love geek culture and I'm a proud part of it. But it's always had a discomfiting undercurrent of casual misogyny, of which this ridiculousness is only one example. They're not even pretending to develop a solo project for her right now; the best for which the character can currently hope is that the CW's Arrow will throw her a bone in its upcoming second season. Who knows? Maybe Wonder Woman will be in the Justice League movie. You'd think it'd be a given.
But then again, you'd think her getting the respect she deserves would be a given, too.

And in other Oscars news
J ohn Travolta is back to scene stealing somewhere that isn't allegedly a bathhouse in Los Angeles! John only had literally three lines to say in the entirety of the Oscars. It took me a quick minute before I figured out he wasn't some melted pancake who'd wondered on-stage from the props department for a Katy Perry music video, but I shouldn't shade John or his lacefront, because without him the 2014 Oscars would just be the sad less fun cousins of The Golden Globes.
Yes, after somehow lacing the words beautiful and wicked with some kind of fabulous glittery vibrato and making me never able to say the word "talented" the same way again – John introduced oh, you know, Tony Award winning actress Idina Menzel as
"Adele Dazeem"
And all I could let out were 160,000 YASSSSSES at the immediate number of Adele Dazeem gifs, facebooks and general internet fuckery that would ensue.
So thank you John Travolta, because otherwise this was just a bunch of people clapping Cate Blanchett for being a good actress.

Strange Things Are Afoot at the Circle K
I attended an all-day meeting about stream restoration permits earlier this week, followed by a four hour biodiesel laboratory experiment with my students. The people I'm dealing with act like small children. Oh, I'm not referring to the students, who incidentally, are acting like small children because spring break is just ahead.
I stopped by a nearby gas station on the way home to grab a cup of cheap coffee, and heard this sound, "RAWR chunk chunk RAWWWWWR" under the counter. I asked the skinhead who works there, "Hey dude is that death metal playing under the counter?" He responded, "Yeah, I need it to get through the night in this place." Sounded legit, so I was like, "Right on." He then launched into an apology on the topic, to which I honestly responded to him,
"No seriously, it's OK. This is the least absurd conversation I've been in for the last 14 hours."
The other day at the office, our major donor coordinator was trying to recall a term (sand bar), and just said, "I don't know, the thing underwater, it has a spit....it has moving sand...what is it called?....?"
I answered, "The Kraken?"

In a recent radio broadcast, faux con Sean Hannity had a full meltdown…again. This isn't the first time he's shown signs of severe emotional distress, but this piece really takes the cake. Take a listen to this gem:
Fraudster @seanhannity in a full blown mental meltdown!
Threatens: If Trump loses, I will blame Ryan & Cruz! pic.twitter.com/c52Er0wm6u
— The Reagan Battalion (@ReaganBattalion) August 4, 2016
"I'm gonna tell you one other thing. I'm just gonna say it. Because it needs to be said. If in 96 days, Trump loses this election, I am pointing the finger directly at people like Paul Ryan, and Mitch McConnell, and Lindsey Graham, and John McCain, and John Kasich, and Ted Cruz, if he won't endorse. Sorry, you created Donald Trump, all of you, because of your ineffectiveness, because of your weakness, your spinelessness, your lack of vision. Your inability to fight Obama, your fear of being blamed for a government shut down. And I'm getting a little sick and tired of all of you."
Wow, Sean, this is a stretch, even for a Trump shill like you. Lumping conservative icon Ted Cruz in with the likes of Paul Ryan, McConnell, Boehner, Kasich, and let's not forget the brokeback mountain duo, Lindsey Graham and John McCain, is laughable at best and deceptive at worst.
Like #MisterTrump, you weave an element of truth (Ryan, McConnell, Boehner, and their inability to fight Obama) and spin it around a lie, claiming that Ted Cruz is just like them. You have obviously learned quickly from your Sith lord.
Remember that time when Senator Cruz was afraid to fight Obama? Do you remember that time Cruz was weak, spineless, lacked vision, or afraid to shut down the government? Yea, me neither.
Actually Sean, Ted Cruz never sacrificed his conservative principles and his integrity on the golden altar of Trump Tower. You have been exposed. You are not a Reagan conservative like you claim to be. Instead, you are part of the progressive alt-right movement that pees on the grave of Ronald Reagan and any other true conservative.
Sean Hannity, I'm gonna tell you one other thing. I'm just gonna say it. Because it needs to be said. You are a fraud.

Wikipedia is a strange beast. On the one hand it's a semi-accurate jumble of ill-researched opinion. On the other it's a valuable source of information. You could almost use it as an example of the place where blogging – with its often cavalier attitude to the facts – meets journalism, with its emphasis on good research, sources and sensitivity to shades of meaning.
What better training ground then for people whose careers may depend on accurate research and actually teasing apart fact from fiction? Politics postgrads at the University of East Anglia are being asked to edit eight articles in the online encyclopedia, then write one of their own. Immediately they're being wrenched from the stuffy, theory-driven world of academia to real-life situations where people will read what they write, and where their actions may have consequences. Meanwhile Wikipedia gets a tidy-up. A small one admittedly, but it can't hurt to have some pages spring-cleaned by people trained in critical thought.
What a great idea. I love great ideas. I love it when someone really does add up two and two and gets four.

After airing a piece critical of the Pakistani military, senior journalists Najam Sethi and Hamid Mir received serious threats from what they described as "both non-state and state actors." Pakistan was the most dangerous country for journalists in 2011 and the CPJ is working to keep these journalists safe by publishing these threats, bringing them into the public eye and making certain that those who wish to do harm know that their actions will not go unnoticed.

Connecticut public to weigh in on spending cap proposals
HARTFORD >> A commission created by the General Assembly couldn't reach consensus on the issue, but some lawmakers and Democratic Gov. Dannel P. Malloy are still hoping three-fifths of the General Assembly will finally approve a constitutional spending cap.
The Appropriations Committee will hear testimony Monday, April 3, on 17 bills pertaining to the state spending cap.
Twenty-five years ago, afraid that spending would increase following implementation of an income tax voters overwhelmingly approved a constitutional spending cap. But the General Assembly never defined it.
Attorney General George Jepsen opined in 2015 that Connecticut's spending cap has "no current legal effect."
Shortly after Jepsen's opinion lawmakers voted to create a commission to work on recommendations to the General Assembly. However, the 24-member commission couldn't even reach a consensus this past winter on how to define a working spending cap.
Even with 17 bills in support of instituting a spending cap on the Appropriations Committee public hearing agenda Monday, the devil will be in the details and it remains to be seen how much political capital will be spent on the issue.
