text: Thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) is a naturally occurring inhibitor of angiogenesis that is able to make normal endothelial cells unresponsive to a wide variety of inducers. IgM anti-CD36 antibody SM?, oxidized (but not unoxidized) low density lipoprotein, and human collagen 1, mimicked TSP-1 by inhibiting the migration of human microvascular endothelial cells. Transfection of CD36-deficient human umbilical vein endothelial cells with a CD36 expression plasmid caused them to become sensitive to TSP-1 inhibition of SCH 54292 biological activity their migration and tube formation. This work demonstrates that endothelial CD36, previously thought to be involved only in adhesion and scavenging activities, may be essential for the inhibition of angiogenesis by thrombospondin-1. Thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1)1 is one of a small number of molecules found naturally in vertebrates that can inhibit angiogenesis, the sprouting of new blood vessels from preexisting ones (Bouck et al., 1996). It is secreted at SCH 54292 biological activity high levels by a variety of normal cells (Frazier, 1991; Lahav, 1993; Bornstein, 1995) and can decrease the density of the vasculature that forms during embryonic development (Stellmach et al., 1997) and wound healing in granulation tissue (Polverini, P.J., L.A. DiPietro, V.M. Dixit, R.O. Hynes, and J. Lawler. 1995. 9:272a). In addition, TSP-1 can be an antiangiogenic barrier to the development of malignant tumors (Dameron et al., 1994; Weinstat-Saslow et al., 1994; Hsu et al., 1996; Volpert et al., 1997), which must induce a vigorous angiogenic response to grow and progress (Folkman, 1995parasitized erythrocytes (Oquendo et al., 1989; Baruch et al., 1996), facilitates the binding of platelets to collagen, monocytes, and the subendothelium, and contributes to the activation of monocytes and platelets (Greenwalt et al., 1992). CD36 also serves as a scavenger receptor. It mediates the uptake of anionic phospholipids (Rigotti et al., 1995) and oxidized low-density lipoprotein (OxLDL) (Endemann et al., 1993; Nicholson et al., 1995; Nozaki et al., 1995), an activity that may contribute to the formation of foam cells involved in the genesis of artherosclerotic plaques, and plays a key role in the phagocytosis of apoptotic cells (Savill et al., 1992; Ren et al., 1995; Stern et al., 1996) and rod outer segments in the retina (Ryeom et al., 1996(St. Louis, MO). OKM-5 monoclonal antibody against CD36 was kindly provided by Dr. Mary Makowski (Ortho Diagnostic Systems, Raritan, NJ). Before use, all monoclonal antibodies were extensively dialyzed against DME using a 30-kD Centricon? concentrator (Amicon Corp., Beverly, MA). Purified human platelet TSP-1 was kindly provided by Jack Lawler (Harvard University, Cambridge, MA). TSP-1 peptides were synthesized, purified, and dialyzed as previously described (Tolsma et al., 1993) and included Col overlap, NGVQYRN representing TSP-1 amino acid residues 303C309; Mal III, SPWDIASVTAGGGVQKRSK representing TSP-1 amino acid residues 481C499 with the cysteines present in SCH 54292 biological activity the native molecule replaced with alanines; and Mal III variant, SPWDIASTSAGGGVQRSK, containing Mal III residues with an altered VTCG sequence. The position of these peptides in the intact TSP-1 molecule is shown in Fig. ?Fig.1.1. Angiostatin was kindly provided by Michael O'Reilly and Judah Folkman (Harvard University). Recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) was purchased from R & D Systems Inc.

Josh Allen adds a versatile role to the Jaguars defense, in an interview with Pro Football Focus he said he watches and tries to mirror NFL players like Pro Bowler Von Miller and the breakout force, Khalil Mack; who also happen to be the most athletic defensive ends in the game.
I've had to go back to high school to figure out how he has become such an athletic defensive end. In his early high school days before switching to defense, Josh Allen was an all-state wide receiver with 1,150 yards and 11 touchdowns his Junior Year.
Here he is in HS making a reception as a WR against triple coverage pic.twitter.com/UgzNijsGaJ
— Laurie Fitzpatrick (@LaurieFitzptrck) June 16, 2019
Therefore, when he made his transition to defense, his size made him hard to stop when rushing off the edge but more importantly his athleticism helps when dropping back to open space, he has great pursuit to the ball when in zone and it was a big reason why with Kentucky he dropped back into coverage on 141 snaps in 2018, allowed only 130 yards on 19 targets and not allowing a single touchdown. These numbers make him a great fit for the Jaguars defense because in recent years the Jaguars have been bottom 5 in the league for allowing big plays. In the AFC championship the defense allowed over 150 yards to be gained from short distance passes (within 15 yds of the line of scrimmage).
In the draft this year, the Jaguars had no choice but to pick the number one guy on the board who not only is very good in coverage but coming off the edge he had 5 forced fumbles and 31.5 career sacks. So far in mini-camp, Todd Wash has no confusion about where Josh Allen will play in the upcoming season; even with Telvin Smith taking the year off. He will be a 3rd down run stopper coming off the edge on the opposite side of Ngakoue.
Many aspects of Josh Allen's game make him a great player. One of them and the reason why they drafted him was his ability to get after the Quarterback and be a force to stopping an offense.
Against Mississippi State, Kentucky was up 14-7 and entering the 4th Quarter the KU defense was on their heels. On 1st and 10 to stop the momentum of the game Josh Allen comes off the edge to sack the quarterback; 2nd down once again Josh Allen applies pressure to the left guard forcing a defensive hold to change the momentum of the entire game.

Causing disruption was something his game fed off especially early in games. In the first 3 mins in the first quarter against Vanderbilt Josh Allen was able to use his speed and hands to breeze right by the right guard to sack the quarterback for 8-yard loss.
in 2018 Josh Allen had 5 FF, 51 total pressures, 14 sacks, 9 QB hits and 28 hurries. He dropped into coverage on 141 snaps and allowed just 130 yards on 19 targets w/out allowing a single TD. With Ngakoue and Campbell in front of him his rips and bull rush will improve@KlipDraw pic.twitter.com/HOVGBjhtfj
— Laurie Fitzpatrick (@LaurieFitzptrck) April 26, 2019
In this same game but in the 3rd quarter, the defense line makes an important shift (which we see a lot throughout the season). What this does is it isolates the offensive tackle with Josh Allen so he can take him 1-on-1 and get penetration into the backfield. The tight end gives him a little bump before taking off into his route and the running back must step up and help prevent Josh Allen from getting to his quarterback. Despite the completion, this is the type of disruption you want to see from your edge rusher even when he rushes inside.
I love this play where the DT shifted to the inside isolating their LT with Josh Allen. Hes bumped by the TE, picked up by the LT and the RB and still almost gets to the QB Ngakoue on one side and him on the other Edited with @KlipDraw pic.twitter.com/O3ikUAs7ab
— Laurie Fitzpatrick (@LaurieFitzptrck) May 25, 2019
Josh Allen's versatility with his hands were said to be a concern when entering the 2018 NFL draft. An edge rushers ability to rip, swim and bull rush an offensive lineman is what separates them from just another defensive lineman. In the next few clips he uses different moves to get to the QB and below he uses the swim move to bend the edge and get to the quarterback.

— Laurie Fitzpatrick (@LaurieFitzptrck) June 16, 2019
In the next video we see several moves from Josh Allen where he gets penetration into the backfield using a rip and taking advantage of the inside leverage.
Another "con" was that Josh Allen can only rush to the outside. He hits the LT with a pump fake rip move but does rip through and gets to the qb milliseconds after he throws it.
— Laurie Fitzpatrick (@LaurieFitzptrck) May 25, 2019
He took advantage of the inside leverage and that's what you want to see in a rookie edge rusher pic.twitter.com/tJ2J5fCng3
In clip #2 the RG makes a huge mistake by double teaming Kentucky's inside guy instead of getting Josh Allen who ends up coming free to get his 1st out of 3 sacks against Penn State.
We have all seen Josh Allen go to the outside with no success but his capability to keep separation was key in this next clip.
..follow up on the prior post. When coming out of the draft some reports of Josh Allen's was that he doesnt have good hands. This may be true when when rushing from from the weak side but when staying home & reading the play, he understands how important separation is @KlipDraw pic.twitter.com/wxYR6p4fX9
— Laurie Fitzpatrick (@LaurieFitzptrck) May 25, 2019
Keeping separation in order to keep his eye on the backfield and make a move at any point is something you look for in your rookie defensive end. In the second clip even against a double team he keeps his feet underneath him and bulrushes towards the quarterback.
We all know there are multiple sides to a defensive end and an important factor is being able to stop the run as well. The Jaguars defensive line took a big hit when they lost Malik Jackson to the Philadelphia Eagles and from what I saw in his tape, getting through the OL against the run was something had a hard time doing against an offensive lineman compared to a tight end. I saw a lot of times where he couldn't disengage against the strong side OL and against the pure blocking tight ends.
He does have a hard time disengaging from big T's or TE's when defending the run, he will have to extend his arms a bit more and keep one arm free but he did his job here which was to force the runner inside for his LBs to pick him up. #DUVAL #NFLDraft19 #FilmwithFitz @KlipDraw pic.twitter.com/DkwoSOgpyP
— Laurie Fitzpatrick (@LaurieFitzptrck) April 27, 2019
Against the Florida Gators there were multiple times where the opposite side guard pulled to pick up Allen coming in to stop the run. Sometimes they were able to ride him outside and used his own moves against him; other times he tried taking the B gap without any outside linebacker help allowing a huge rushing gain.
There were some times he took the inside B gap to stop the RB in the backfield but without a LB on the outside helping, the RB will most likely convert. pic.twitter.com/5sYCtYOo6k
— Laurie Fitzpatrick (@LaurieFitzptrck) June 16, 2019
Against the run there were times it was tougher for him to disengage against a OL opposed from a TE. Here it looks like a hold but still is unable to get free from his grip and the RB gains 8 on 1st and 10 pic.twitter.com/IxVDMTfWyT
— Laurie Fitzpatrick (@LaurieFitzptrck) June 16, 2019
Is this a cause for concern for the Jaguars? Probably not. With veteran guys like Calais Campbell, Yannick Ngakoue and with Smoot and Taven Ryan to learn from, there will be room to grow.
One thing that Josh Allen can do that will add versatility to the line is drop back in coverage to defend the deep ball, and that my friend is the most exciting attributes about this player.
At Kentucky, they ran a 3-4 defense which required Josh Allen to go in deep coverage against a receiving TE when they lined up 3 WRs. Against Texas A&M their TE runs a deep corner route and even with safety help over the top Josh Allen stays with the receiver and makes an amazing play to prevent the conversion.
Josh Allen is a huge improvement for the Jaguars when needing someone to drop back in coverage. He has a 4.6-4.7 40 yard dash time and hes 6'5" 260lbs! Great for when Harrison blitz and they need someone to keep an eye on that TE. He will definitely be the most versatile DLman pic.twitter.com/dcVyq2Ffr9
— Laurie Fitzpatrick (@LaurieFitzptrck) April 26, 2019
These are the plays that get Jaguar fans excited for the future of this defense.
Even in coverage in short distances, Josh Allen has a perfect drop step, using his hips to open up putting his body in the perfect position to make the quickest play to the ball and prevent any slant or even a 5 yd in-route.
He has a high football IQ and physical when he drops back on defense. Here he breaks up this play and prevents a first down.

We've watched Josh Allen in an outside and inside pass rush, defend the run, shed multiple blockers and drop back in coverage.
One thing I noticed in Josh Allen and to cover the last bit of his game, was his understanding of the game and being able to identify the screen and more importantly staying home when it matters most.
— Laurie Fitzpatrick (@LaurieFitzptrck) June 16, 2019
Against Penn State there were a good amount of run option plays to take Josh Allen away from the game. Penn State has a very good offensive line and on 3rd & 1, they had 2 OL pulls to help the QB ride out the Option play until the last second. Josh Allen in a 3-4 defense protects the outside, and on these plays, even though Penn State came away with a first down Josh Allen did his job and that is all you can ask for.
In this clip, it shows the position he will be in with the Jaguars 4-3 defense. This play the LBs ideally will be there to stop the play. Josh Allen does his job here pic.twitter.com/GAi7zKfj40
— Laurie Fitzpatrick (@LaurieFitzptrck) June 16, 2019
Since we are looking at Josh Allen staying home, once again against the Florida Gators his job is to force the ball carrier inside and prevent the play from stretching to the sideline. Of course, we would love to see him make the play, but in the NFL as long as you do your job on the outside (ideally) the inside linebackers here will be in the gap to make the tackle.
Once again getting penetration in the backfield but TE does a great job just riding him right out of the play, replacing the OT. This looks like an RPO but could have just been a decoy for a designed run, nonetheless I like to see Josh Allen getting into the backfield @KlipDraw pic.twitter.com/9PtotcpPjZ
— Laurie Fitzpatrick (@LaurieFitzptrck) May 25, 2019
Overall, I think Josh Allen is going to make a terrific defensive lineman and even though he has a lot of work to do to become a starter in the NFL, he has the attributes to be a play maker for the Jaguars defense.

A great big thank you to those who have been involved in the planning of the extension as well as those who have generously given. It is a wonderful space and we can't wait to be using it for youth work. We are loving having the space and feeling thoroughly blessed! Much love the Ovens
Easter Thank Offering
Easter speaks of God's love for us, and His will to spread that love among all peoples. On Sunday 4 April 2021, we will be holding an Easter Thank Offering to support the work of our Mission Partners. Our first priority will be to provide for those partners who would normally have benefitted from our Harvest, Carol and Nativity service offerings last year (Tearfund, The Oasis Centre, & Compassion), and thereafter where the need is greatest. The money raised will be lodged in our Restricted Mission Fund. Please do pray about how you can contribute towards this offering.
The easiest way to make an offering is by online bank transfer to the Corsham Baptist Church account at Lloyds Bank (contact the office or Treasurer if you need the details), and reference the transaction RES MISSION FUND. Alternatively, you could post a cheque to the Treasurer at Priory Street, clearly marked EASTER 21 THANK OFFERING on the reverse.
If you are able to book for the in-person service at Priory Street on Easter Sunday, please put your offering in the wooden offering box which will be placed at the back of the building. When the offering is taken, only the contents of plain envelopes (marked EASTER 21 THANK OFFERING) and loose cash/cheques will be included in the Thank Offering total. Blue offering envelopes will be treated as regular giving to the general work of the church.
Unfortunately, Covid operating restrictions prevent us from leaving supplies of the special yellow envelopes we normally use for Thank Offerings on open display in the building. However, if you have completed a gift aid declaration in favour of CBC, we will recover gift aid on your offering (cheques, and bank transfers only) unless you advise us otherwise.

Is European Cantaloupe Keto-Friendly?
Navigating the keto diet isn't always straightforward, especially when it comes to fruits like the European Cantaloupe.
The pivotal question we explore here is: 'Is European Cantaloupe Keto-Friendly?' Considering its delectable sweetness and hydrating character, it really is an alluring option, but does it align with the ketogenic regimen's strict carb limitations?
Throughout this informative exploration, we dissect the intricate carbohydrate profile of European Cantaloupe, grapple with the question of its compatibility with the keto diet, and dig deeper into its role within this unique dietary framework.
Though infused with undeniable nutritional goodness, the European Cantaloupe only manages to secure a precarious position on the keto dieter's menu, only permitted under strict portion controls to maintain the delicate balance of ketosis.
Is European Cantaloupe Keto-Friendly?
As we unravel the mystery of the European Cantaloupe's compatibility with a ketogenic diet, one has to venture into the stark realities of nutritional contents. While the thought of biting into its juicy, sweet flesh might be enthralling, its carbohydrate content is something worth contemplating. The European Cantaloupe, well-loved for its rich taste and freshness, contains 7.26g of net carbs per 100g.
Here's the crux of the matter: The ketogenic diet, by nature, is a low-carb regimen where your body's primary fuel source switches from glucose (from carbohydrates) to ketones (from fat). An adult following a keto diet generally aims to limit daily carb intake to about 20-50g of net carbs. The European Cantaloupe's relative high carb content can potentially consume a substantial portion of this daily carb allowance depending on the quantity consumed.
Based on the keto macros –high fats, moderate protein, and very low carbs – the European Cantaloupe certainly does not fit comfortably as a regular feature in a stringent keto diet due to its specific macronutrient breakdown. The Cantaloupe, despite being a treasure trove of vitamins and a wonderful hydrator with its high-water content, is fairly high in carbs and low in fats and proteins. This carb-dense nutritional profile means that unrestricted consumption of this fruit can disrupt the process of achieving and maintaining ketosis.
Can European Cantaloupe be Incorporated into a Strict Keto Diet?
Incorporating European Cantaloupe into a strict keto diet is much like walking a tightrope—you are continuously striving to stay balanced. The relatively high carbohydrate content of this delightful fruit demands a delicate approach, especially for those following a rigorous ketogenic plan.
Since the ketogenic diet emphasizes fat intake while minimizing carbs, this poses a unique challenge when introducing fruits like the European Cantaloupe. Each 100g serving, with its 7.26g of net carbs, takes up a significant slice of the daily carb allowance on a strict keto regimen. However, this does not definitively mean that European Cantaloupe is an utterly forbidden fruit for keto dieters. It instead signifies the paramount importance of moderation and portion control when consuming carb-dense foods.
One approach to accommodate European Cantaloupe into a stringent keto plan is careful planning and tracking. In today's digitalized world, there are various applications and tools available—such as MyFitnessPal or Carb Manager—that can assist you in meticulously recording your carbohydrate intake and planning your meals accordingly. These resources can empower you to enjoy small portions of European Cantaloupe with certainty, without tipping your carbohydrate scales over the edge and disrupting ketosis.
Delving into the Carbohydrate Content of European Cantaloupe
The carbohydrate content of the European Cantaloupe is a cardinal concern for those following a ketogenic dietary approach. To truly understand how it fits into the ketogenic jigsaw puzzle, we need to delve deeper into its carbohydrate profile.
Beginning with the basics, carbohydrates are a broad category composed of sugars, fibers, and starches—that together provide energy to our bodies. In the ketogenic diet's context, however, it's not merely the total carbohydrates that matter—it's the 'net carbs' that count. Net carbs are the total carbohydrates in a food minus the fiber content, as fiber is not digestible and does not impact blood sugar levels like other carbohydrates. Thus, the concept of net carbs is of profound importance to keto dieters, particularly when tracking their carb intake.
When considering the European Cantaloupe, it harbors a net carbohydrate content of 7.26g per 100g of the fruit. This figure is derived subtracting the dietary fiber of 0.9g from the total carbohydrates of 8.16g per 100g. To put it in real-world examples, a medium-sized European Cantaloupe typically weighs around 550g, and if one decides to consume half of it, that's around 275g of fruit—or a whopping almost 20g of net carbs, almost the entire daily carb allowance on a stringent keto plan!
Nutritional Snapshot of European Cantaloupe
European Cantaloupes provide a robust mix of nutrients that support overall health when included in a balanced diet. A 100-gram portion of European Cantaloupe is rich in a variety of vitamins, minerals, and micronutrients, all while having a relatively low caloric content of only 34.0 kilocalories.
One noteworthy aspect of European Cantaloupe's nutrition profile includes the high water content, making up 90.15 grams per 100-gram sample. This high water content can contribute to hydration, and, combined with the fruit's fiber content (0.9 grams per 100 grams), it provides a sense of fullness despite the relatively low calorie count.
A predominant macronutrient in European Cantaloupe is carbohydrates, with net carbs at 7.26 grams and total carbohydrates by difference at 8.16 grams. This includes dietary fiber, which assists with digestion and overall gut health. The amount of total fats and protein is relatively low, at 0.19 grams and 0.84 grams respectively.
Diving into the mineral content, European Cantaloupe is a good source of potassium, with 267.0 milligrams per 100 grams. Potassium is essential for heart health and normal cellular function. It also contains smaller amounts of magnesium, calcium, iron, and phosphorus among others.
In the domain of vitamins, European Cantaloupe shines with a high Vitamin C content, providing 36.7 milligrams in a 100-gram portion. Vitamin C is an essential nutrient known for its antioxidant properties and a pivotal role in immune function. The cantaloupe also delivers a good dose of Vitamin A, with 169.0 micrograms per 100 grams. This essential vitamin supports eye health among other benefits. There are also traces of B-Vitamins, Vitamin E, and Vitamin K1.
Finally, European Cantaloupe contains beneficial carotenoid nutrients such as beta-carotene (2020.0 micrograms) and minor amounts of lutein and zeaxanthin. Beta-carotene is converted into Vitamin A in the body, while lutein and zeaxanthin are known for promoting eye health.

'European Cantaloupe' was not found in FoodData Central, so nutritional data for 'Melons, cantaloupe, raw' was used instead under Cast Iron Keto's editorial and research standards.
Health Implications of European Cantaloupe on a Keto Diet
While adorning your ketogenic meal plan with European Cantaloupe can add a splash of sweetness, there are some significant health implications to consider—namely, the potential challenges it poses toward maintaining ketosis.
The ultimate objective of the ketogenic diet is to induce a metabolic state known as ketosis, where your body primarily burns fats, instead of carbohydrates, for fuel. High carb intake can interrupt this fat-burning state, potentially bumping you out of ketosis and delaying the benefits attached to the ketogenic regimen. With a net carb content of 7.26g per 100g, incorporating high portions of European Cantaloupe into a ketogenic meal plan could potentially disrupt ketosis if other carbohydrates are not accounted for and limited accordingly.
Moreover, each individual has a unique carbohydrate tolerance level; some may be able to maintain ketosis with slightly higher carb intake, while others can get kicked out of ketosis with just a slight increment. Therein lies the challenge, as frequent indulgence in Cantaloupe might demand a steep decline in the consumption of other carb-rich foods to maintain the balance.
However, not everything about European Cantaloupe is gloomy from a health perspective—far from it. Cantaloupe is a source of essential nutrients such as Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and several antioxidants that contribute to immune function, skin health, and protection against oxidative stress. These are crucial components of overall wellness that should not be discounted.
Importance of Limiting European Cantaloupe in Your Keto Meal Plan
Navigating the ketogenic dietary pathway requires a certain degree of mindfulness, particularly when it comes to integrating high-carb foods like European Cantaloupe. But does this mean you have to forego the delectable succulence of this fruit while on a keto regimen? Not necessarily—but limitations are key.
A primary focal point should be portion control. As we've mentioned before, the net carbs in European Cantaloupe mask a potential pitfall for the unwary keto dieter. Instead of indulging in half a Cantaloupe, consider dicing up a small portion to sprinkle over a salad or mix into a smoothie bowl. This way, you get to savor the refreshing taste without overstepping your carb limit.
Planning your meals in advance can also serve as a valuable tool—by designating specific days to enjoy a sweet bite of Cantaloupe, you can ensure balance with other low-carb meals throughout the week.
On the culinary front, you can introduce small portions of European Cantaloupe into some innovative keto recipes. For instance, consider making a spicy Cantaloupe and cucumber gazpacho—an aromatic blend of keto-friendly veggies with a hint of Cantaloupe provides a unique flavor without disrupting your carb limits. Alternatively, a small Cantaloupe salad with feta and mint offers a fresh, vibrant side dish that pairs well with lean proteins.
Finally, keep in mind that breaking the carb limit bursts the protective bubble of ketosis and may lead to the onset of the 'keto flu'—a cluster of unpleasant symptoms like nausea, dizziness, and fatigue that can occur when transitioning in and out of ketosis. Hence, the onus of limiting European Cantaloupe in your keto meal plan ties back to maintaining consistent ketosis and thus reaping the full array of its benefits.
Keto-Compatible Alternatives for European Cantaloupe
The pull of European Cantaloupe's sweet taste and refreshing qualities is undeniably strong. However, for the dedicated keto dieter, there's a need to explore potential alternatives that align better with the dietary framework.
Consider the likes of berries—raspberries, blackberries, and strawberries. Not only are they lower in net carbs compared to European Cantaloupe, but they also serve as delicious additions to smoothies, salads, and as standalone treats. For example, raspberries house approximately 5.44g of net carbs per 100g and strawberries only 5.5g per 100g.
Another keto-compatible alternative is the humble avocado. With a measly 1.8g net carbs per 100g, avocado offers a creamy, satisfying alternative that can be incorporated into various keto recipes. Enjoy it mashed on some low-carb toast, blended into a rich smoothie, or sliced into a salad for a gentle, creamy contrast.
For a more exotic replacement, star fruit or carambola could do the trick with its low net carb content of around 3.93g per 100g, providing an almost one-to-one mimicry of the taste and texture of Cantaloupe in salads and desserts. It provides the same refreshing bite and citrusy sweet flavors while being much lower in carbs.
Comparatively, these alternatives, considering their net carb content and variety of uses, offer a nutrient-dense beneficial exchange for European Cantaloupe. Notably, avocado with its high monounsaturated fat content provides added benefit for keto dieters, being a natural source of fats—the cornerstone of the ketogenic plan.
Concluding Thoughts on European Cantaloupe and Keto
Navigating the roadmaps of diet and the perplexing world of food choices can often be a challenging endeavor, particularly when embarking on a ketogenic journey. The integration of European Cantaloupe into this voyage brings its own unique set of deliberations and nuances.
The keto-unfriendliness of European Cantaloupe, mainly due to its relatively high net carb content, has emerged as a prominent talking point in our discussion. A standard serving of this delectable fruit can encroach substantially on the stringent carb allocations of a typical ketogenic diet. Therefore, the importance of portion control and strategic meal planning takes center stage when it comes to indulging in European Cantaloupe while adhering to keto guidelines.
That said, it's not so much about completely eliminating European Cantaloupe from your keto regimen as it is about adopting a more cautious, measured approach towards its consumption. Taking advantage of digital nutritional tools, or reshaping your Cantaloupe cravings towards lower-carb fruit alternatives such as berries or avocado, can help maintain the delicate balance required for ketosis.
One additional thought to consider is the strategic use of physical activity to offset the carb impact of European Cantaloupe. Engaging in a rigorous workout on the days you desire a Cantaloupe treat might help increase your carb allowance for that specific day, allowing you to enjoy the fruit without disrupting your ketosis significantly.

If you're a seafood lover, you may have heard of Ono fish. It's a popular choice in Hawaiian cuisine and is also enjoyed by many around the world. But what exactly is Ono fish? If you're curious about this delicious treat from the sea, keep reading! We'll give you everything you need to know about this type of fish.
First of all, we can tell you that Ono is not actually a type of fish. Confused yet? Don't worry, we'll explain. Ono is simply the Hawaiian name for what is called Wahoo in other parts of the world. Wahoo belongs to the Scombridae family, which means it's related to mackerel and tuna.
"Wahoo, or Ono as they call it here, is one of my all-time favorite fish. It has a mild flavor with a slightly sweet taste, and its texture is perfect for grilling or searing." – Chef John
Now that we've cleared up the confusion about the name, let's dive deeper into Ono/Wahoo. This fish can be found in warm waters around the globe and is known for its speed and agility. Wahoo can grow quite large, sometimes reaching over 7 feet long and weighing up to 100 pounds!
So, what does Ono/Wahoo taste like? The flesh is firm and meaty, with a mild and slightly sweet flavor. Some people compare the taste to that of kingfish or swordfish. Because of its firm texture, Ono/Wahoo is great for grilling, searing, or smoking.
If you want to learn more about Ono/Wahoo and how to prepare it, keep reading our blog post for tips and recipes!
Introduction to Ono Fish
Ono fish, also known as wahoo, is a popular seafood choice among many fish lovers. It has a mild yet flavorful taste and is known for its versatility in different cuisines.
If you're curious about what fish is ono, keep reading to learn more about the history and origin of this delicacy, as well as its distinct texture.
The History and Origin of Ono Fish
Ono fish can be found in tropical and subtropical waters around the world, including the Pacific, Indian, and Atlantic Oceans. The name "ono" comes from the Hawaiian language, where it means delicious or tasty.
This species of fish has been consumed by humans for thousands of years and was highly valued by Pacific islanders who used traditional fishing methods to catch them. In ancient times, wahoos were caught for their meat and oil, which were used for food and lamps respectively.
"The Wahoo's long-term history is actually shrouded in mystery beyond Hawai'i."
Today, ono fish is considered a sportfish that attracts fishermen all over the world because of its speed, strength, and agility when hooked. But it is also a commercial fish that is commonly sold in markets and restaurants worldwide.
The Taste and Texture of Ono Fish
Ono fish has a pale pink flesh that turns white after cooking. Its flavor is light, buttery, and slightly sweet with subtle hints of nutty and delicate meat undertones. This makes it an excellent option for dishes that require a mild-tasting fish.
"Wahoo has a clean flavor profile, lending itself to just about any culinary preparation."
The fish has a firm yet flaky texture, and its flesh is not oily like that of some other fish species. This makes it an excellent choice for grilling or pan-searing as it can be cooked to perfection without falling apart.
The versatility of ono fish extends beyond just its taste and texture. It's a lean source of protein that provides multiple health benefits. Ono contains omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins B12, and D, and minerals such as zinc, magnesium, and iron.
If you're looking for a mild-tasting and versatile fish option with great nutritional value, ono fish might just be the perfect catch.
What Does Ono Fish Look Like?
The Physical Characteristics of Ono Fish
Ono fish, also known as Wahoo fish, has a long and sleek body that is cylindrical in shape. They have a pointed snout with razor-sharp teeth and a sharp tail fin that helps them move through the water with ease.
These predatory fish have an elongated dorsal fin that runs most of the length of its body with small fins positioned along their bodies to provide stability and maneuvering.
Females are generally larger than males, but both genders can reach lengths up to 8 feet and weigh up to 180 pounds with some specimens weighing over 200 pounds!
The Coloration and Markings of Ono Fish
Ono fish has distinctive blue-green coloration on its upper body while their bellies tend to be silver-white. A dark-blue stripe runs along their sides from head to tail, giving them a distinct look which often catches the attention of anglers who love to catch this species for sport or food.
In addition to these wonderful markings, they also possess bright iridescent stripes and coloring across their bodies making them one of the most beautiful pelagic fishes out there.
The Size and Weight of Ono Fish
Ono fish size varies widely depending on factors like gender, age, habitat, and food availability. As mentioned earlier, males are typically smaller than females and it's common that sexually matured female Onos are larger in size compared to males.
Younger wahoos do not grow very fast and take around two years before becoming capable of reproduction. However, from this stage onwards until year seven, young Onos increase in weight at an annual rate of 11-12%. A fully grown Ono fish, which is generally found in deep waters and offshore habitats, can weigh anything between 10-150 lbs. The fight they put up when caught is one of the reasons why so many fishing enthusiasts seek to catch these magnificent creatures.
"Onos are prized for their firm, mild flesh, making them an excellent game fish that offer anglers a great challenge in catching them." -Sport Fishing Magazine
Where Can You Find Ono Fish?
Ono fish, also known as wahoo, is a popular game fish that can be found in tropical and subtropical waters around the world.
The Geographic Distribution of Ono Fish
The ono fish is most commonly found in the Pacific Ocean, but it can also be found in the Indian and Atlantic Oceans. In the Pacific, the fish can be found from Japan to Australia and New Zealand. The species is predominantly caught by deep-sea anglers off Kona and Maui in Hawaii.
In the Atlantic, ono fish are found along the coasts of Brazil, the Caribbean Islands, and the Gulf of Mexico. These fish are also common near Florida and the Bahamas. Some reports suggest that they were first identified in 1897 off Cape Verde in Africa. In the Indian Ocean, the ono fish are found mainly in the eastern part of the coast of southern Africa and the western portion of the Indian Ocean. Also, some say that this fish was introduced in the Mediterranean Sea through the Suez Canal after the opening of the canal during the late nineteenth century.
The Habitat and Environment of Ono Fish
The ono fish prefers warm waters with temperatures between 72°F and 80°F. They tend to swim at depths between 30-120 meters or below surface water. The ono fish are often found near floating objects like logs, buoys, and seaweed, which serve as shelter for prey such as fish and squid. These habitats make them vulnerable to fishing traps set out by fishermen hunting them.
According to marine biologists, the abundance of ono fish depends primarily on oceanic currents, temperature profiles, and food availability in their habitat. This is why catching ono fish is easier in rocky underwater sites and places where currents are strong, creating ideal conditions for the fish to feed on baitfish. In general, it's a complex species that relies heavily on its environment.
The Fishing Methods Used to Catch Ono Fish
Fishing techniques used to catch ono commonly vary according to the location they inhabit. Since ono fish usually stay near floating debris, trolling artificial lures, live baits or vertical jigging with heavy bucktail jigs can be useful methods for catching them. Sometimes anglers wait till night when the fish come closer to the surface because of their nocturnal tendencies. Another reason why fishing these predators at night might be beneficial is due to the contrast between lights from fishing boats and darkness surrounding it, making for an easy meal for onos.
"Ono runs faster than most game fish," says Jerry Ingles, author of "Fishing Hawaii Style." According to him, you have to calculate how fast your boat moves through the water, and then add 2-4 mph more to get the correct speed to troll an ono lure correctly. This way, we give the ono fish a little challenge, which also allows us (anglers) some fun while patiently waiting for an epic strike.
- Some popular methods of Ono fishing include:
- Trolling – typically uses spreader bars or daisy chains for multiple hookups.
- Jigging – effective method when ono is present just beyond casting distance.
- Baiting – anglers use live baits such as flying fish, squid, mackerel, or sardines to draw the attention of the predator towards the trap.
- Popping- using poppers, which create explosive noises that mimic the sound of feeding frenzy, can be used to catch hungry ono fish.
"Some of my best memories in Maui have been out fishing for Ono. You never know what you're going to get but when that line starts zipping and it's just you and a majestic predator – it doesn't get any better than that," said John Davidson, travel blogger & fishing enthusiast.
If you're wanting some swift game action, chasing ono is worth considering for your next fishing adventure. Preparedness with high-speed trolling rigs, live-bait setups, or vertical jigs will go a long way. Understanding their habitat, preferred temperature range, and general behavior can help tip the scales towards a successful catch.
Is Ono Fish Good for You?
If you're a seafood lover, you've probably heard of ono fish. Also known as wahoo, this deep-water fish is commonly found in tropical and subtropical waters around the world. But is ono fish good for you? Let's take a closer look at the nutritional value and health benefits of consuming this tasty sea dweller.
The Nutritional Value of Ono Fish
Ono fish is a rich source of many important nutrients that are essential for optimal health. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), a 4-ounce serving of cooked ono fish contains:
- 135 calories
- 27 grams of protein
- 1 gram of fat
- 55 milligrams of cholesterol
- 28 micrograms of selenium (40% of the recommended daily intake)
- 480 milligrams of phosphorus (48% of the recommended daily intake)
- 245 milligrams of potassium (7% of the recommended daily intake)
- 0.6 milligrams of vitamin B6 (30% of the recommended daily intake)
Ono fish is also low in saturated fat and high in omega-3 fatty acids, which can help reduce inflammation and improve heart health. However, it is worth noting that like all fish, ono fish may contain pollutants such as mercury, which can be harmful in large amounts.
The Health Benefits of Consuming Ono Fish
In addition to its impressive nutrient profile, ono fish offers several potential health benefits, including:

- Lowered risk of heart disease: Studies have found that consuming fish regularly can help reduce the risk of heart disease by lowering blood pressure, reducing triglycerides, and improving cholesterol levels.
- Cancer prevention: Some preliminary studies suggest that the selenium found in ono fish may help prevent certain types of cancer, including prostate, lung, and colorectal cancer.
"Fish has always been considered an excellent source of protein and other essential nutrients, and recent research has highlighted additional benefits of seafood consumption, particularly its highly favorable effects on cardiovascular health." -Harvard School of Public Health
While there's no doubt that ono fish offers many potential health benefits, it's worth noting that not all sources of this fish are created equal. Like all seafood, where and how the fish is caught can play a role in its nutritional value and safety. Whenever possible, choose wild-caught ono fish over farm-raised varieties, and look for fish that have been responsibly sourced and tested for pollutants.
Ono fish is a tasty and nutritious addition to any seafood lover's diet. With its impressive nutrient profile and potential health benefits, it's definitely worth considering adding this flavorful fish to your weekly meal plan.
How to Cook Ono Fish
The Best Cooking Techniques for Ono Fish
If you're wondering how to cook ono fish, it's important to know the best techniques to use. Ono fish can be prepared in a variety of ways, including grilling, broiling, baking, and poaching. However, many people prefer to grill or sear ono fish as these methods help to retain its unique flavor and texture.
To prepare the ono fish for cooking, start by removing any scales and cutting off the head and tail. Next, rinse the fish under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels. You can then season it with your choice of herbs and spices, depending on your preference, before cooking it using your desired technique.
The Seasonings and Spices That Complement Ono Fish
When it comes to seasoning ono fish, there are several options to choose from that complement its mild yet delicious taste. Some popular options include garlic, lemon juice, dill weed, rosemary, and paprika. These flavors work well with the fish without overpowering it, ensuring that its natural taste still shines through.
You can also add other ingredients to elevate the dish further, such as ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Whether you prefer a simple seasoning of salt and pepper or a more complex blend of herbs and spices, make sure to apply it evenly over both sides of the fish.
The Recommended Cooking Times and Temperatures for Ono Fish
One of the most critical aspects to ensure when preparing ono fish is to cook it at the right temperatures and times. The general rule of thumb is to cook each side of the fish for about three minutes per half inch thickness. This means that for a piece of ono fish that's one inch thick, you'll need to cook it for at least six minutes per side.
To get the perfect sear and crust, preheat your grill or pan until it's very hot before adding the fish. The optimal temperature will depend on the cooking method you choose to use, but it should generally be between 350°F and 400°F.
How to Properly Store Ono Fish Before Cooking
Before you start cooking ono fish, it's essential to store it properly to maintain its freshness and quality. If you plan to cook the fish within two days of purchasing it, store it in the refrigerator to keep it moist and fresh. Wrap the fish tightly in plastic wrap or foil before placing it in an airtight container. This step helps prevent any odors from mixing with the fish, ensuring it tastes as fresh as possible when cooked.
If you don't intend to use the fish immediately, you can freeze it for up to three months. To do this, wrap the fish closely in freezer paper or vacuum-sealed bags before storing them in the freezer. Always label and date the containers so that you can easily identify them later.
"Fish is one of those proteins that people are intimidated by, but it doesn't have to be. Just keep in mind some basic tips like using fresh fish or defrosting frozen fish safely, avoid overcooking by testing for doneness." -Rachael Ray

Fling But a Stone
Mark Rich
Though thrilled to be in the Glass House, the fabulous restaurant hanging midway down the Glass Valley of New Dearborn and turning there slowly like an elaborate ornament on a crystal Christmas tree, he wondered why he, Hiram Daugherty, mere stringer, received so forceful an invitation to have breakfast with the highest of the high at the Daily?
First, last night, he snagged that elusive magazine, News to the World, after eleven months of trying, and felt a million miles high just running his eyes over its high-tech pages. Now he sat here with Courtnelle Basilprop herself.
"If you're wondering," said Basilprop, "why you're here—"
"I am."
She smiled, with a bit of steel behind the smile. She seemed about his height, a few inches short of six feet, with carefully straight, light brown hair in stark contrast to his haphazardly curling bird's nest. She dressed in Corporate Calm, with none of the flash-panels so common these days on the lower streets. He wore his old-fashioned pale denim and white shirt—just what he happened to have on, when the summons arrived.
"It's because of an unauthorized purchase," she said.
"A purchase?"
"You bought a magazine last night."
"Unauthorized, you say."
"That's right."
"Ms. Basilprop, this is a free country."
"News to the World is not free."
"Darned right it isn't. Cost me what I earn from the Daily in about a month—"
"You're a stringer with us, aren't you, Hiram?"
"That's right."
"What was your purpose in buying that?"
"Purpose? What purpose do I need? Everywhere you turn—on the news, in the pages of the Daily itself, in all the hottest venues, if you really listen closely, you discover everyone talks about what News to the World talks about. It's the yardstick. Everyone measures themselves against it."
She leaned back. "You yearned for the better things? You wanted to measure yourself against it, too?"
"You don't understand. It was a challenge. It was in my head—oh, long ago—to buy one. Just to see. I was willing to dig deep, just once, to get one in my hands—but I couldn't. No newsstands carry it, except in the middle of New Staten and in Chicago's Two-El shops. And those shops—first, they say I have to use a credit card. Then they say they're out of stock."
"How did you finally get the one you did?"
"How do you know I did?"
She smiled without humor. "It was brought to my attention. Why don't you answer my question?"
Hiram absorbed the gentleness and the chill of her words before proceeding.
"I was making my latest effort to buy one," he said carefully, "and this time the clerk gave it to me. I just handed her my card, and she handed me a magazine. Later I discovered that was right in the middle of that crazy half-hour—"
"Oh, of course," she said, leaning back. She closed her eyes briefly. "Should have known. The Glitch. We're not going to forget that soon, are we?" She halfway permitted herself a smile again. "Pages fifteen through thirty of the Daily—you saw the stories running upside down and mirror-inverted for two hours afterward?"
The momentary breakdown—a concerted attack, some speculated—to City Central's governor had caused myriad difficulties across the artificial island: subways bypassed stops, a trolley rammed a car, a promo zeppelin snapped a radio tower, and outages affected part of the Glass Canyon itself.
"It became clear to me, in retrospect," Hiram said. "I got my copy by accident."
"That's right."
A settled look fell over her. Hiram could see from her eyes and posture he had about spoken enough. Thinking back, in fact, it surprised him how voluble he had been, in the presence of such editorial power.
"You need to understand several things, Hiram," she said. "Do you know who owns the Daily?"
"A consortium. Postawara Publications is just part of it, right? Can't remember the name."
"The name doesn't matter. It's a facade. The real owner's News to the World."
Hiram blinked.
"News to the World," said Basilprop, "is the owner, and it looks askance on this little episode in the extreme. It asked me to look into this personally."
"This is going too far. First there's that call from the shop saying I had a defective copy and would I please return it."
"They'd have taken it, promised a second copy in the mail, and instead have returned your payment, probably with interest."
"—then someone rummaged my apartment. What's going on?"
"Maybe it hasn't sunken in, Daugherty. News to the World owns this building. It owns the Daily. In a sense it owns me, and a part of you—but only part, since you write for other newslinks, too, and other papers? Right? But what do you know about News to the World? Not much. No one is supposed to know too much. But News to the World commands the highest advertising rates in the world. It gets those high rates. Not the slightest hesitation on the part of the advertisers when it comes to paying. Why? Because News to the World guarantees—guarantees—every one of its buyers earns over a million dollars a year. Guarantees. How does it do that? It controls its outlets, and permits sale only by credit card or fund transfer. If your credit rating or bank account record doesn't lead the vendor to records indicating you have an income in excess of a million a year, Daugherty, the transaction's off. Out of stock, sorry, sir: they're supposed to say that. You never get the magazine—until something happens like the City Center breakdown, when somehow a credit check of your card led to mistaken approval."
"So how did you find out?"
"As I said, News to the World guarantees. It double-checks every transaction, routinely. Yours didn't check out. Big surprise, eh? We know your income, even what you earn from your work outside the Daily. We know your buying habits, your usual restaurants, and your favorite stores and entertainments. If just one advertiser gets wind of the fact that you bought the magazine, there'll be hell to pay. Just because one person with inadequate income bought it."
"I understand that," said Hiram, "but not why it should matter. It was an accident, right?"
"We can't afford a slip-up. If it gets out that not just anybody, but an employee of this company bought the issue—well, you see my position. My neck's on the line. That's why I brought you here."
Hiram knew well what this cost. About as much as an issue of News to the World to dine here, in the Glass House with its spinning view of the Glass Valley.
"What would you have me do?" he said.
"Take it to the shop, and return it. The return will be tied to your credit record, and all will be well."
"What good will that do? The advertisers are concerned about the purchase, right? How can you erase that? You can't. It's a done deal."
Certainty filled him suddenly: he had struck a blow on behalf of common folk. Through simple perseverance, then coincidence, he had started eroding this edifice of the elite-most, the News to the World, simply by disrupting its demographics. Once the demographics lost their halo of purity, advertisers would call the magazine's claims into question. Once that happened, the stranglehold the lofty magazine held on the world—at least the world covered by the Daily—would loosen. Who knew what might happen then?
He imagined himself a hero to those people never seen through these windows: the working stiffs, the eight-to-fivers, the low-pay wage-monkeys. From here, you could see countless acres of mirrored glass, from street level to a point high above, where a few tiny patches of blue sky hung among the glass panels like the lone colored tiles in a vast mosaic of shifting, white light.
While you sat, you saw more of the same, as the restaurant slowly turned on its pivot: glass, in curved and flat panes, and little else.
"You see it doesn't matter, any way you approach it," Hiram went on. "Because the world already knows. As you said yourself, I write for more than one outlet. I'm just a stringer for the Daily, and I make up the rest of my living writing for other places, including an e-zine called The Rake. Got a regular gig there. Wrote my latest one last night in a heat to meet deadline, and posted it directly onto the zine page. It was about my year-long search for a copy of News to the World. And about my success.
"More than eleven thousand people tap into The Rake the first night of each release. We're pretty hot. Another twenty to thirty thousand tap in the next morning, when they get copies of the tease sheet in their e-mail. Of those, a good fraction look at my column. Probably sixty to seventy percent. I can get you figures if you want.
"The thing is, probably all the readers know little old me bought a copy of News to the World, because it's right there in the teaser. That's why I wanted to find out how you knew. To see if you were a reader." He grinned at her frozen expression. "Now, take this into account. Since The Rake appeals to educated people, the chances are mighty good your Fortune Ten companies have employees who read it. That means their advertising departments probably already know that some poor twit on a hamburger budget bought a copy."
"News to the World could easily buy out the whole enterprise," said Basilprop, gingerly touching her forehead as if surprised at the perspiration beading there.
"Like hell. What's published is already out there." Hiram lowered his voice. "It's done and over with. News to the World can no longer make its guarantee. There's nothing you or I can do about it."
Basilprop's face tightened. "You leave me no choice."
Stiffly, she stood.
Watching her walk decisively from the table Hiram knew better than to move. Where would he run? She conferred with a gentleman in a dark suit, sitting with a couple toughs. Could he get past them? No. Could he jump out a window? If he guessed correctly as to the nature of those windows, then no, again—not that it would be worth plummeting the quarter-mile to the street below.
All for the sake of buying a magazine. Was this so important to his values? Was he willing to forsake his job, and the meager stability his life had finally achieved, just for the sake of a stupid magazine that catered to the uppermost flakes of the upper crust?
The dark-suited man scowled, nodded, and spoke briefly into his palm.
Basilprop wheeled and returned. Hiram steeled himself for the worst. He wondered if he would ever be permitted to resume his old life, to live on his own plane of existence, to go about his duties and pleasures as if this episode had never happened.
"It's done," she said. "Now we can order our brunch."
"What's done?"
"I gave orders that your credit limit be raised to seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars, in a credit appraisal via a bank in Hong Kong. Point-of-origin information for the transaction will bear yesterday's date. Rather it does bear yesterday's date. You are also now on payroll for a salary of one million and one dollars per year, direct deposit, as a columnist. Undoubtedly we have needed a talented writer such as you." She smiled dryly. "It's yours, if you want it. You can now be one of—us."
Hiram shivered at her words. When the waiter brought the menus, his eyes boggled at the prices. The orange juice alone—
"By the way," she said to him. "I changed my mind. You're buying."
Coffee did little to clear the fog over his mind. Having finished his breakfast, more exquisitely prepared than his tongue was prepared to acknowledge in his all-systems-down state, he excused himself from the table. Some peers had wandered over to discuss matters with Basilprop anyway.
He carried his amazingly costly coffee nearer the window, to stare out at the passing expanses of mirror.
Could he accept this? Did he have the choice? Of course he had the choice. Yet could he exert that choice? Could he actually turn down an improved livelihood like this, after struggling to achieve it by other means? He rattled down through a list of things he could do, now. Overwhelming. The things he might undertake, just having so good an income—things that mattered . . .
"Congratulations,"—a dimly heard word through the fog, from one of the stellar personalities of New Dearborn's literary world. Some of these people just dropped in here for their morning lift.
He knew all too clearly that News to the World was buying him, just to guarantee its demographics. What was a million bucks against endangering its cash cow? Hiram imagined a teeth-clacking comic face in a News to the World executive training spiel: "If a poor Joe or Jill accidentally cops a copy—then, why, that poor kid obviously has the potential to achieve the same income and same buying power as the rest of us. Why not confirm the obvious? Throwing a few hundreds of thousands of dollars at the kid does no harm, does it? It does a world of good to News to the World!"
Yet he was a muckraker, a thrower of stones. He looked at the cup in his hand. Could he hurl it through that window, now that he had taken a drink from it? He had viewed himself as an outsider, all these years. He wrote ranting small-press and micro-press columns, always going against the grain, fulfilling his counter-cultural urges and building up what he thought of as a raw and uppity printed-word personality.
True, he wrote more sedate columns for the Daily: slightly less honest work, for that necessary paycheck.
And accepted that.
He had moved into that very small tower of glass willingly enough.
Could he move into this much taller one? What if he stubbornly maintained his old lifestyle, buying only the kinds of meals and household items he had always bought? Those peering advertising agencies would find out, in due time, that one of these precious readers of News to the World was a low-life. That would be like throwing a stone.
Then he remembered Basilprop's words: I changed my mind. You're buying.
He regarded again the cup in his hand. "You've already been thrown through me," he said. "I'm already a Class-A Consumer."
"What I have in mind for you," said Basilprop, joining him at the window, "is a series of exposés. There are rotting things in the Glass Valley you're only beginning to sniff around, in your Daily columns. I know which way to direct you, if you want to get into it heavy. That's what you want, isn't it?"
He looked at her, startled. A sudden vision came to him of her straining the seams of her dress jacket, arm pulled back to really smash a brick through a window.
He always thought it natural of anyone of the lackey-level minion class to hanker after the sound of breaking glass now and then. But someone like her, in her position? Did she, too, yearn to throw stones?
An even more startling thought came:
Was he the stone?
"Now wait a minute," he said. "What am I, in this deal? Am I a tool of News to the World, or of you?"
"News is just getting out of a tough spot. Me, I'm just an opportunist. I know some things that need to be done, and right now I see a way of doing them." Her smile looked guarded but genuine. "You decide what you're going to do."
Words he had quoted in a recent column came to him, written by an old, obscure poet by name of Matthew Green:
"Fling but a stone, the giant dies.
Laugh and be well."
For who lives in glass houses, anyway?
Everyone, he decided. Every damned one of us.
And he smiled.

It was my friend Nina's birthday today and I offered to make her a cake as a gift, and she eagerly said yes please! A chocolate cake was requested and as I had an abundance of Smarties left from Jenson's second birthday cake that I made for his party (post still to follow about that!), I thought they would decorate the cake perfectly.
The chocolate cake underneath is my usual recipe , sandwiched together and then covered in my cream cheese and chocolate spread frosting. The Smarties were a little fiddly to add to the cake in places, and hence my cake does look a little messy in places (where the Smarties fell of and I had to really them with some extra frosting!), and also where I tried to stick to the same colours in a line on the top!
However, despite all of that, and I think those faults are purely my own because I assembled it and know of them, I do think this cake is very eye catching , colourful and strikes a chord with any big or little kid who is having a birthday!
I do not have any photos of the inside to show the chocolate sponge, but to be fair it is the outside which looks most impressive, although I have been reliably informed by Nina that it tasted as good as it looked 🙂
- 200g unsalted butter
- 200g caster sugar
- 4 eggs
- 160g self raising flour
- 40g cocoa powder
- 250g full fat cream cheese
- 1 x 400g jar of chocolate spread (I used the Tesco value one)
- 12 -16 ish packs of Smarties ( i lost count!)
- pre heat the oven to 180oC / 160oC (fan)
- grease and line 2 x 8 inch sandwich tins
- cream the butter and sugar together for about 5 minutes until pale and soft
- add the eggs and a spoonful of the flour and beat for a few more minutes
- fold in the remaining flour and the cocoa powder
- divide the batter between the two tins and then cook in the oven for 22-25 minutes approx
- leave the cakes to cool
- divide your Smarties into 8 pots to hold each different colour
- once the sponges are cold to the touch, make your frosting by beating the cream cheese and chocolate spread together
- sandwich the two sponges together with some of the frosting
- then cover the cake with the remaining frosting (you might not need it all)
- Then cover your cake with the Smarties as per my photos - it does get a little tricky on the top of the cake and mine looks a little messy, but take your time and the finished effect looks really eye catching.
I have to be honest, sorting out all of those Smarties into each of the colours is a bit of a faff, and it is obvious that the brown Smartie is the most common, as I had many more of those from the dozen or so packets I used than the more vibrant coloured ones!

Declassified Pentagon records state that people reported encounters with UFOs that left some with an "unaccounted-for pregnancy" and "radiation burns." More than a thousand pages of documents were released in early April 2022, after The Sun tabloid put in a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), a part of the U.S. Department of Defense.
The Sun released the report, titled "Anomalous Acute and Subacute Field Effects on Human Biological Tissues," on its website on April 5, 2022. The report, conducted by the Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program (AATIP), looked at the supposed health impacts on humans who claimed they had paranormal encounters with unidentified flying objects (UFOs).
The AATIP ran from 2007 to 2012, under the DIA, primarily investigated UFOs, and had a $22 million budget from the Defense Department. The existence of the program was not acknowledged by the Defense Department until 2017. The Sun requested a copy of its files just days after the program's existence was acknowledged in 2017. While The Sun had just managed to get declassified documents in April 2022, some of them were withheld by the DIA; also, The Sun hasn't released the entirety of the documents sent to them.
Luis Elizondo, a former intelligence officer in charge of the program, said in a 2021 interview with GQ that in his opinion a lot of the reported health-related effects from such alleged encounters were a result of radiation:
I've got to be careful, I can't speak too specifically, but one might imagine that you get a report from a pilot who says, "Lue, it's really weird. I was flying and I got close to this thing and I came back home and it was like I got a sunburn. I was red for four days." Well, that's a sign of radiation. That's not a sunburn; it's a radiation burn. Then [a pilot] might say, if [they] had got a little closer, "Lue, I'm at the hospital. I've got symptoms that are indicative of microwave damage, meaning internal injuries, and even in my brain there's some morphology there."
In an unclassified file listing "UFO-Related Human Physiological Effects," the reported effects included not only "burns," "skin sores," and "significant odors," but also "sexual encounters." The report listed at least one encounter that allegedly resulted in an "unaccounted-for pregnancy."
However, according to an April 2021 New Yorker report about the AATIP, it is difficult to know what exactly the research accomplished, much less proved. And when Elizondo was questioned by the reporter, "He [Elizondo] insisted to me that AATIP had made important strides in understanding the 'five observables' of U.A.P. behavior — including 'gravity-defying capabilities,' 'low observability,' and 'transmedium travel.' When I pressed for details, he reminded me of his security oath."
Returning to that "unaccounted for pregnancy" listed in the Pentagon report as a "UFO-related human physiological effect," it is no more substantiated by the release of these documents than are similarly listed reports of UFO-related abductions, healings, or telepathy.
Even though all astro-biologists suspect that we are not alone in the world, the above supposed effects of UFO encounters, while detailed in a Pentagon report, are a result of discontinued efforts that haven't publicly shown any empirical evidence for these findings.
