Hormel SPAM Hawaii Label Design Contest
Hormel Foods is currently holding a contest, asking Hawaii residents (must be a Hawaii resident) to submit a winning exclusive Hawaii label design for their SPAM 25% Less Sodium canned luncheon meat. The deadline to enter the contest ended this Friday, but online voting by the general public to choose the best design begins today!
This follows the success of the Hawaii Collector's Edition they offered exclusively to the Hawaii market back in 2003, which looked like this…
The back of the can…
Here's how the Hormel SPAM 25% Less Sodium can label currently looks…
Most SPAM varieties (turkey, bacon, garlic, etc.), including their competitors (like TREET) include a suggestive recipe or way to use their product on the back of the label…
Well, I hereby exclusively present to you my dear Tasty Island readers, my original submission for the Hormel SPAM 25% Less Sodium Hawaii edition 2011 label design…
A profile angle of how the can would look…
Here's the label template that was provided by Hormel (as a PDF)…
which I imported into various art programs to fill in the blanks with my design…
Keep in mind that one of the rules is that "Designers can work in all white space (front and back of label), but must leave brand trade dress information on the label as is."
Now let me explain my design. First of all, there's COUNTLESS possibilities and ways to go about this. You could go the "Hawaiian Host scenic box" approach, and simply plug in a montage of beautiful scenic spots around the islands (beach, waterfalls, attractive hula gal and/or guy, etc.). Or you could go the gallery art "Cristopher Lassen" approach, which of course would entail hours upon of hours of work.
Then of course you could simply just show a nice shot of SPAM Musubi or other original SPAM dish that has a local spin to it on the front. Because everything has to be original and/or royalty-free, if you were to show a hula doll, tiki statue or some other typical Hawaii tourist trap stuff, it would either have to be your own, or you'd need permission from the manufacturer or person who made it. I'm not sure where Hormel got that Hula Girl Doll on the 2003 edition, but it's certainly a great piece, so kudos to them for that design.
Whenever I create something that requires an artistic mind, such as say a masthead for a website, usually my FIRST concept is the one I find works the best. That said, the concept I propose here was the very first thing that came to mind, and I just rolled with it (or surfed it if you will).
My girlfriend highly recommended I think "outside the box" and get away from SPAM Musubi, but you know what? No matter what, there's no denying SPAM Musubi is THE defining icon of what SPAM means to Hawaii, period. SPAM, eggs and rice? Sure. SPAM Katsu, absolutely. SPAM in Saimin and fried noodles? Most definitely. Yet, by far, SPAM Musubi tops them all, and is truly as much a top-of-mind icon to Hawaii as the North Shore and/or Kilauea, just to name a few. No matter what, the venerable SPAM Musubi continues to be a an absolute REQUIREMENT on a SPAM label that will be mass-produced to honor Hawaii.
So a "SPAM Surfer" you ask? Absolutely! Why not?! There's actually a key subliminal message behind that. With this being the 25% Less Sodium version — having 580mg of sodium versus regular SPAM's 790mg — the reason Hormel is using this version is simply because, while Hawaii still enjoys being the largest consumer in the nation of SPAM per capita (with Guam actually beating us, but they're a territory, not a state), the 25% Less Sodium is a better seller here than the regular SPAM. From a marketing standpoint, this ideally reflects Hawaii residents as a whole being at least somewhat health conscious. So "SPAM Surfer" is intended to represent an active, outdoor lifestyle on the beach in Hawaii, and surfing is certainly a healthy sport that keeps you fit. Hence, a "SPAM surfer dude". Adding to that, the graphic of the wave splashing and barreling right underneath the "25% LESS SODIUM" ribbon banner provides an underscoring way of giving the impression that salt is being washed away … even though sea water is salt water, but you get the drift. lol
I might also add, with the rebooted Hawaii Five-0 v.2.1 enjoying renewed TV network success, the barreling wave can also be associated with that (from the opening theme song). Or at least I'd like to think so.
Then of course he's giving da' shaka, the universal sign language gesture of Aloha.
Thrown into the design is a Hibiscus silhouette with a simple gradient blend, which as you may know is the official flower of the state of Hawaii. I actually want to redo that using an actual photo and vectorize it, which if my design were to be used, I'd certainly change that out in the final version. I also want to redo the wave illustration a little bit (simplify it more) if given the opportunity to do so.
Now the back of the label is really my favorite part! One idea was to take a block of SPAM and carve it into the shape of Diamond Head Crater, yet I took that eight steps further and "carved" the entire Hawaiian Island chain out of SPAM! Au-right! You know it! lol In Photoshop of course, by clip masking the text over a photo of a slice of fried SPAM. So if you look closely at the surface of the islands, it looks like they're made of SPAM, which I've affectionately renamed in honor of Captain Cook's "Sandwich Isles", "DA' SPAMWICH ISLES". Clevah (clever) eh!
With that, my idea of a serving suggestion is: take some slices of SPAM and cut them out into the shape of the Hawaiian Islands, fry 'em up and present it on a flattened bed of rice and furikake on a plate, garnished with Teriyaki sauce and green onion to make the plating presentation complete. I bet your guests will be FLOORED! In fact, I'll do it myself and blog it here in a post coming soon!
The first paragraph of the text copy is my own, while the rest is directly from Hormel SPAM's history web page.
The two SPAM Musubi on the bottom left corner were (stress WERE, until I ate them both) mine, which I bought from the Kaheka Don Quijote, made by Tokyo Bento. 5 SPAM Musubi on them, as they were "Crazy Tasty" indeed! lol Believe it or not, I took the photo of that SPAM Musubi (duplicated on the label and rotated) on the dashboard of my car right before eating it at the beach. Au-right!
Finally, if you look closely, the gradient yellow and aqua blue band wrapping the top and bottom of the label has Tapa print embedded in it, sealing the "This is a Hawaii label design" deal.
So anyways, that's my design and I'm sticking to it, Teriyaki sauce and all. Voting opens to the public today, Presidents Day, Monday, February 21 to Friday, February 25, 2011.

HCC Eats: Cheeseburger Hawaii Lunch Truck
Hot off the heels (or grill) of our recent visit to Honolulu Burger Co., this past Friday Diner E and yours truly came across yet another burger joint, this time in the form of a lunch truck operated by Cheeseburger, a chain with brick 'n mortar Hawaii locations in Waikiki and Lahaina, Maui, as well as Nevada and Florida.
Their kitschy old Hawaii memorabilia-themed meals-on-wheels was found parked near the entrance of the campus cafeteria at Honolulu Community College, right up the street mauka of the Iwilei Costco.
We originally went there with the intention of sampling da' grindz at HCC's campus cafeteria, but the sign on the door said they were closed on Fridays. So being that Cheeseburger's truck capitalizes on the opportunity and parks right in front there on this particular day, it was pretty much a no-brainer to give this mobile alternative a try.
Getting right to it, let's check out their menu…
OK, so their regular all-American menu is why I've named it a "lunch truck". Yet I suppose you can also call it a "lunch wagon", as even here, local style plate lunches are thrown into the mix to cover all student body demographics…
Wow, a plate lunch that also includes a green bottle import beer? Now there's a "moke" dream come true! lol Nah but, no alcohol is served here — they're just using the brewer's chalkboard.
What's nice is everything here is priced as a complete meal, where the burgers and sandwiches all include fries and a drink, plus you can upgrade to Onion Rings or Sweet Potato Fries for just .25 more.
What also nice is, if you care to "dine in" while enjoying the wonderful ambiance of bustling Dillingham Boulevard in the heart of Kalihi (a.k.a. "God's Country", a.k.a. "The Center of Hawaii's Food Universe), there's covered seating conveniently located right there in front of da' truck…
With that, while not "dining in" (out), otherwise like Honolulu Burger Co., Diner E ordered his usual "gauge" burger here, this time sampling Cheeseburger's take on "The Teriyaki Standard" (because, you know, there are standards) in the form of their 'Island Style Cheeseburger'…
Cheeseburger lunch truck – Island Style Cheeseburger : Teriyaki Cheese Burger with a slice of Grilled Pineapple, topped with sliced iceberg lettuce, tomato, red onion and "special sauce" on a toasted white bread bun. Served with (upgraded) Sweet Potato Fries and (included) Drink (not shown). .25
Here's another "profile" angle of the plate…
My "gauge" burger of course is the Swiss 'n Shroom, where here at Cheeseburger they prefer calling it the 'Shroom and Swiss'…
Cheeseburger lunch truck – Shroom and Swiss Cheeseburger, topped with slice iceberg lettuce, tomato, red onion and "special sauce" on a toasted white bread bun. Served with (uprgraded) Sweet Potato Fries and (included) drink (not shown). .25
Lookin' good there, with a generous helping of sauteed white mushrooms covering the thoroughly melted swiss cheese, which in turn is completely covering the 90/10 lean-to-fat ratio Y. Hata-sourced all beef burger patty.
The "profile" angle of the same plate, with my drink of choice, Hawaiian Springs Young Natural Artesian Water…
Here now is my Shroom 'n Swiss in fully-assembled form, where you see it's quite a stacker!..
Open wide and say "ahhhhh"!…
As you see, this stacker of a swiss 'n shroom burger is pretty much dwarfing my hand. After several eye-closing, savoring bites…
So how is it? Winnahs! Ono!
I was skeptical all the way until this point, from the moment the server told me A) they "grill" their burgers on a flat top griddle (GRIDDLE, NOT GRILL!), and B) that the patty was preformed (a.k.a. institutional) 90/10 beef, which most burger enthusiasts may argue is too lean (less flavor). But wow, hey! This is one mighty fine example of the classic Swiss 'n Shroom'r, with almost all the right things in place.
Which there's several reasons I can immediately point out in why I'm so fond of it. First and foremost, while Cheeseburger's "institutional" preformed 90/10 patty can't touch the open range grass-fed Big Island beef, nor was it ideally char-grilled, for what it's worth, it was cooked to a nicely-crusted finish, while retaining a decent amount of moisture inside. While its beefy flavor really popped thanks to the patty itself being well seasoned with salt and pepper. I can certainly taste when or when not a patty has been seasoned while cooking on the grill/griddle, and these were, thank goodness.
The same well-seasoned flavor also applied to the very generous helping of tender 'n mighty tasty sauteed white mushrooms, while gluing all that together was the als0-tasty and thoroughly melted Swiss Cheese. In fact, the swiss cheese had much better flavor on this burger than the one that topped my Mushroom Mushroom Burger from Honolulu Burger Co..
Not stopping there, the cook also performed the crucial (almost to the point of being "kosher"-crucial) step of TOASTING THE BUN, where it's split in the center. Very,very important, and thankfully, check! Done!
Last but certainly not least, unlike Honolulu Burgr Co., who uses fresh-cut white sweet onions, Cheeseburger uses fresh-cut RED ONIONS for their burgers, and THIS is where I personally think is what separates the two, with huge points in favor of the red onion. There's just something so simple yet complimentary about the red onion's flavor profile that makes all the difference between an "eh, so-so? Burger" to being a "Yeah!" burger! Like, Seriously. Seriously!
As for Cheeseburger's "special sauce", it tasted pretty much like your usual thinned-down Thousand Islands Dressing (essentially ketchup and mayo'), where while I prefer simple 'n plain 'ole mayo, this worked…
Summing up Cheeseburger's take on the classic Swiss 'n Shroom (or vise-versa; however you wanna' say it), I was pleasantly surprised, given the circumstances (griddled institutional burgers from a lunch truck) and give their take on this visit a very solid, absolutely incredibly tasty 3 SPAM Musubi! Enough where I'd "Hana hou" it (go back for more)!
Back to Diner E's 'Island Style Cheeseburger', let's check it out in built form…
Witness the Teriyaki sauce "juicyness" on the top of the bun, where you know that's just gotta' be some "crazy-tasty" goodness (in the words of Diner A). Also witness the slightly "papa'a" (a.k.a. "Koge", a.k.a. "burnt edges) on the slice of pineapple topping the teriyaki burger patty with melted American cheese on it. Can I get anymore descriptive than that?
Continuing on,we need to check the requisite Tasty Island cross-cut view of this baddy (after a few tasty bites, of course!)…
The verdict from Diner E? "Eh,so-so". First of all, he didn't care for the addition of the 'Island Style' grilled pineapple slice, finding it non-complimentary to both the melted American Cheese, as well as the Teriyaki-coated beef patty.
The Shack also offers an almost entirely identical burger to this called the 'Island Burger', which I myself tried, and thought was just "OK", but not something I'd order on a regular basis. What i think is, whoever thought of this 'Island Burger' concept of combining a pineapple with teriyaki, weren't thinking about complimentary physical flavors, but marketing flavor by sound via combining two familiar food names often associated with Hawaii.
Anyhow, Diner E also complained that the bun had a stale texture, which was contrary to my thought on it, where I personally found my bun was nicely-toasted and quite supple.
Ultimately, yet not surprisingly, the key contrast for Diner E was his recent memory of the FAR-SUPERIOR Big Island free-range hand-formed 1/3 pound burger patty featured at Honolulu Burger Co., that ultimately made Cheeseburger's burger — or perhaps ANY burger for that matter PAIL in comparison. Which of course is an unfair comparison (because, you know, anything made in Hawaii RULES!), yet must be noted.
Not much more commentary about his burger other than that, where he sums up Cheeseburger's 'Island Style Cheeseburger' with 1 SPAM Musubi.
Speaking of which, in light of Honolulu Burger Company's absolutely SUPERB Sweet Potato Fries, how does Cheeseburger's take on it stack up?…
They're Yam-based and quite flavorful in and of themselves and certainly have potential, yet they weren't seasoned adequately with salt and lacked the delicately-crispy texture on the outside that HBC's was so good about. I'm not even sure if they were deep-fried, as they were rather greaseless in a lifeless way, if I shall nitpick it.
Still, a good accompaniment that I'd say is worth the extra .25, where their suble sweetness was a wonderful contrast to the savyry burger. Some help in the form of their deep-frying method (if it's even cooked that way) and a few taps more of the salt shaker, and Cheeseburger's Sweet Potato Fries would really pull it off.
Summing it up, I'd DEFINITELY return repeatedly for Cheeseburger lunch truck's onolicious, well-seasoned, RED ONION!-laced Mushroom and Swiss Burger, while I think their Sweet Potato Fries have star potential if/when executed properly. Plus, the price is certainly right at .25 for the complete combo, and the convenient location near the Iwilei Costco works for me.

P.S. Diner A's Teriyaki Prime Burger combo plate from Zippy's on the same day…

Yum-yum potato bun!…
P.S.S. (can I say that? lol), I sampled my first Ono Pop at KCC Farmers' Market this past weekend…
That's quite a spread of exotic paletas popsicle flavors, so instead of driving myself nuts trying to decide which one to choose, I simply asked the owner which one is HIS favorite, which he quickly handed me the Butter Mochi…
Let's have a bite…
The verdict? Full-bodied in a frozen, somewhat gelatinous mochi kind of way. Definitely a butter accent going on, while not being TOO sweet, which I always appreciate. Overall, very tasty and accurate in flavor and texture to what it's described as.
My only complaint is that it tasted a little freezer-burnt, being contrary to them being touted as being fresh-made.
While seems a bit steep for a popsicle, one must take into consideration the ingredients this particular Butter Mochi Paletas Ono Pop lists: Island Milk, White Star Mochiko Flour, Naked Cow Dairy Butter, Organic Sweetened Condensed Milk, Local Eggs, Pure Hawaiian Vanilla and Island Sea Salt. Very nice!
Summing it up, I give Ono Pop's Butter Mochi flavor 3 SPAM Musubi. Loose the "frost bite factor" and it could be a 5!
On my next visit, I'm all over that Ume Thai Basil Ono Pop.

How Spirituality and Fear Affect Each Other
You're afraid. You're anxious and upset. So you pray. And pray some more. But what about when your fear and anxiety are still there? Does being afraid mean your spiritual life is somehow weak? What are you doing wrong?
The connection between spirituality and fear (or no fear) is not always a simple one. As a believer you know God has an answer to your problems, so when you feel anxious or afraid you go to Him for a solution. There may be times when you feel as though He is really helping you. Your prayers seem to calm your mind or help you rest better. You're grateful. God has come through.
At other times you may feel even worse when you pray. You start grasping at anything you can think of to try and get relief from God for how you feel. You read your Bible more, go to church more, or practice some spiritual warfare technique you're read about. You try to get help from other believers or at a special Christian event. But it feels like a vicious cycle; the more you struggle to find God's answer, the more upset and anxious you become.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 74226
emacs should default to utf-8 encoding for utf-8 locales
Last modified: 2015-01-07 19:00:31 EST
Description of Problem:
When Emacs is started in a locale that uses utf-8 encoding, it should
default to default to using utf-8 encoding for its buffers.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How Reproducible:
every time
Steps to Reproduce:
1. LANG=en_US.utf-8 emacs
Actual Results:
Default encoding of buffers and files is latin-1 (iso8859-1).
Expected Results:
Default encoding should be utf-8, following the locale.
Additional Information:
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8) can be used to make utf-8 the default
buffer/file encoding. Of course this needs to be conditionalized on
a test that the locale is using a utf-8 encoding, particularly since
Emacs can currently handle CJK utf-8 afaik.
teg already fixed this. :-)

In asymetric key cryptography, the public key is used to encrypt information that can only be encrypted by the holder of the private key. The trouble is you don't know who the public key belongs to. For the web, they came up with certificate authorities, the public certificates bundled with the browser. For PGP, you exchange keys with the other party, a paper copy or physically hand it to them, fax it etc, phone up and confirm the key verbally. They can sign the electronic copy and send it back and you can sign their key. Keys expire and they can be revoked. PGP public key servers are available on the internet. Often you have more than one key pair, where one is used to sign the other that you By self signing your own certificates, the people at the other end still need a way to id you're cert. This is the hardest part of cryptography to solve. There may not always be a user or person on the other end, so there needs to be a programmatic alternative also. If you own all the nodes, you can install your own public key on all of them, then sign others keys for use in your djinn. You become the cerificate authority in that case. I'm not sure of the best solution, this is a hard problem to solve, but I'm open to experimenting with new ideas.

This technique has fallen from popularity but I still like playing with it. I was demonstrating how to do it to someone recently who was doing my Beginners' class. There was a lovely bowl of sweet-pea on the table in front of us that was strongly backlit. You never know what you will get when you do a zoom burst but I was totally blown away by the result. For me, a real 'wow' moment when the image popped up on the screen on the back of my camera. I couldn't wait to get home and see it on my computer - where it looked (to my eye) even better. I know this is not everyone's thing - but I love it!

The Jesuit philosopher-theologian Bernard Lonergan (1904-84) was considered by many intellectuals to be "one of the finest philosophic thinkers of the 20th century"(Time Magazine, April 1970). His complex thought contains much of vital importance to understanding contemporary global issues from economics to education and, of course, philosophy and religion. Theology mediates between religion and culture. Theology of religions is the discipline that thematizes the relationship of Christianity to other religions. Three decades of effort by specialists have generated a theological ''Babel''. The confusion and lack of a cumulative result have led to alternative paths to the discipline: a comparative theology of religious engagement in the US, and an intercultural theology in Europe. Still, the impasse remains. Lonergan offers dynamic structures,heuristic tools, and a collaborative framework for specialists to rise to a higher viewpoint and move toward a comprehensive understanding of the fact and significance of religious diversity. The task and nature of the discipline can be reconceptualized with his critical contribution.

4 TBS. milk
White flour for coating
1 TBS vegetable oil
1/2 stick butter
In a large bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, cheese, leek, parsley and mustard. Add one of the eggs, and one egg yolk. Mix well. Add enough milk to bind the mixture. Then divide the mixture into eight equal parts. Shape into sausages (rolling to make long). In a small bowl, beat the remaining egg white until it is frothy. Dip the "sausages" into froth mix, and then roll in some flour to coat. Heat the oil and butter in a skillet over medium-heat. Fry the "sausages" for five to ten minutes, or until golden brown in color. Serve hot or cold.
Note: While often served during high tea or supper in Wales, Glamorgan Sausages are good as a snack, hot or cold.

Learning disability self-assessment framework 2010 Liz Staples Clinical Services Manager / Lead Nurse
What Is The Self Assessment? The Strategic Health Authority are asking all Partnership Boards to do a "Health Check" of their services and of their work. This is to make sure that we are doing what we should be doing for the health needs of people who have learning disabilities.
What have we got to do? The Healthy Lives Advisory Group need to have some special meetings with service users and carers to make sure that we are dealing with specific health needs The self Assessment feedback form needs to be completed in a meaningful way, to make sure that the picture we give back about Walsall is true and helpful for future planning.
How Do We Do This? It is very important that we involve carers and service users in this assessment, as we need to know where we can improve and then work towards goals and targets. For this reason we will have a very specific "Healthy Lives" meeting dedicated to the assessment. We will inform everyone of the date.
What sort of questions will we be answering? There are four main categories of questions which are then broken down into detailed questions. The questions then look at the guidance and the specific targets to find out how Walsall are doing, and what needs to happen next.
What do you think? Any Questions? Thank you Liz Staples

Review by:
Tuppence van Harn
on March 22, 2014 :
I am in no way the target audience for this play. I never read Waiting for Godot. I am pretty sure I didn't "get" what the author was going for and he will probably want to pull his hair out when he reads this review and call me a moron and a plebian and will end up getting a migraine from all the eyerolling he will be doing. Sorry, Mr. Bentley.
I am not going to give away any plot information or do any character summaries. The play is so short it would basically ruin it. And I really don't want to do that.
As to the general concept of the play: It would be an utter tragedy to see it performed. The play on words is so subtle that the true meaning would be lost if it was spoken. Furthermore, it needs to be read slowly, each line really taken into consideration. To have it thrust on you at the rate of a normal speaker would be the equivalent of power chugging a bottle of fine wine. It also has the worst stage directions I have ever seen. To pick up on the subtle actions requested (like poking a finger in an ear), and to light it as specified (a single bulb without shade/directional or a full stage flood) would require a tiny theatre where the house would be smaller than the stage and audience practically sits in the actors' laps. To be frank, it would be far better filmed- where delicacy and intimacy are practically required not just catered to. Yes. I went there. I used the "f" word in relation to a stage play.
The lines themselves are pure poetry. No, really. Actual poetry. In my head I could visualize the actors dancing. Like a beat ballet- if beat was still a thing and if they could stomach their words being emphasized with pointe shoes and an excessive amount of stretching back arches. The flow of the words compels the actors to flow. They can't just stand and chat. They must bow, bend, reach, point, and pose. Excessively. And it works. Oh man does it work.
I thought the reflections/comparisons/premise of man and religion were obvious and simple enough to follow. Anyone who has even a basic understanding about popular religions could figure it out. Which made it very accessible to me since I normally find plays like this pretentious and arrogant. I didn't have to have it explained. I got it. I could follow along. I didn't feel like the dumb friend at the gallery who can't figure out why everyone is applauding the blank wall. Hell, I had no issues finishing the whole play and didn't give up after the first act because it didn't make me want to shove a brick in my brain just to make. it. stop.
Now, I know "not wanting to shove a brick in my brain" is probably not the phrase that will make you ZOMG I MUST READ THIS. Which is a shame because really, you should read this. It is interesting. It is beautiful. It is witty. It is at times trite but I honestly think those moments were done on purpose to make a point. It is a giant mess of performance art that not only did I get but I could walk away from discussing it at depth and actually know what I was talking about. Like I was one of the cool kids at the gallery who was first to applaud the blank wall. Yeah, I know. I never in a million years would have thought I would "get" a play "like this." Even more, I never thought I would want to read a play "like this" a second time. Just for fun. Because I liked it. Which is why it hands down earned every single one of its five stars. Without a doubt.
Get this play. Tell a friend to get this play. Read it. Discuss. Better yet, book club it. It will open up seriously awesome discussions.

Health Information Encourages Grape Purchase
Let Them Know: Grapes Taste Great and Are Good For You Too
Consumers love grapes for their great taste, but grapes are also a healthy choice. Current scientific research suggests that grapes help support heart health and may also play a role in promoting healthy aging. How? Grapes are a source of natural compounds called polyphenols, which can help promote antioxidant activity and can also assist with cell processes that are critical to overall health.
Additionally, grapes have no fat, no cholesterol, and are very low in sodium. They are an excellent source of vitamin K, a nutrient critical to healthy blood clotting, that is currently being investigated for its role in bone health and more. These healthy attributes, combined with juicy fresh flavor, make grapes an easy choice for the health conscious shopper.
There are a number of ways shoppers think about food and health, but here are the three most common:
- Many consumers consider grocery shopping to be essential to the way they manage their own health*
- Nine out of ten shoppers agree that the foods or beverages you eat or drink can have an impact on health and well-being**
- Three-quarters of shoppers (75%) report making at least "some" effort to eat disease-fighting foods that contain antioxidants. Of this group, one quarter (31%) are making a "great deal" of effort***
When it comes to grapes and health, the majority of consumers know that grapes are good for them:****
- 87% of consumers agree that fresh grapes contain natural compounds that may promote health
- Most shoppers consider grapes a healthy snack
- In fact, 85% of shoppers say they buy grapes as a healthy substitute for less healthy snacks and desserts
- 85% of shoppers say they buy grapes for in-between meal snacks
- 57% of consumers know grapes contain beneficial antioxidants*****
- 40% of consumers are much more likely to purchase grapes after learning that they have antioxidants******
Health Benefits of Grapes Play Well with Shoppers
Shoppers will appreciate reminders that grapes are a healthy choice. Here is some suggested signage text that can encourage grape purchase for a variety of shoppers.

Perfect place to visit with the kids. Water slides, go carts, you name it. Something to do for all ages, especially if you like water slides.

Discussion in 'Colorado Football Message Board' started by lvbuff, Nov 27, 2009.
It will be hansen. It would be nice to have an actual qb coach.
Definitally Hanson.
I bet the "sparrow" will give the little one another chance to fly
Hansen should be the guy and, if he isnt, Hawk should get fired for that. Hansen better be injured or replaced by Superman or somebody else before that happens.
Hansen's our quarterback now.
And Cody has shown that he's a darn good QB to bring in as a relief pitcher when needed.
I'm feeling pretty good about our QB situation next year for the first time in a long time.
Hansen's the logical choice, but I really hope that the redshirt QBs show well this spring. It will be good to have some depth and talent in place.
Hansen will be the starter, if one thing Hawkins has seen were he has ****ed up at, it is with CH starting at QB 1....
Hansen with competition from the incoming recruits and Evans. Cody should be the experienced #2.
What if something happens to Hansen... ACL, transfer, etc... Could Daddy put Cody out there or would he have to give it to Clark Evans?
we should run UT's O with hansen. lotta high % throws, zone read, QB draws. too bad we don't have their OL, though.
Wow... I bet that would get ugly real quick. I like Tyler for 2010, but am very hopeful about Evans and some of the new commits.
hansen should be the starter going into spring ball, Hansen should be the starter going into fall camp, hansen should be the starter going in to csu. Lets have a whole off season planned around 1 QB for a change.
I would ask Benson who he wants as the starter before making this prediction....
Oh, we'll have an OL ready for road grading...
With this staff, I honestly believe that Cody will win the starting job again through an "excellent" Spring and Fall. And players like Simas will also lose their jobs until the season's already over.
I don't think so, not with what Hawk has said the last week. I bet Cody plays a lot, but Hansen will be the man.
He's got a long time to re-convince himself that the lunchpail kids are what's needed for this program. Not the actual, talented ones.
Munchie Legaux will be the starter next year.......
If that really happens, we have major issues with this program. Cody should only be playing as an option if Hansen is lost to injury. But I think you are right unfortunately, I think Cody will end up playing a lot simply because the coaches will think he is a better option.
And if this occurs, we are also in major trouble.
i guess it won't be spond, based upon the latest recruiting news. :huh:
in all seriousness, i thought th looked much improved as the year went on. he'll start, i would think.
as opposed to now?
I have no doubt that Hansen will go into spring as the starter. Isn't Hirschman coming in the spring? That'll be interesting, but I don't see a true freshman in the mix. I've heard, through the grapevine, by the way, that Seth Lobato looks pretty damned good. But I'd be shocked if Hansen is the starter next year. He needs to improve though.
Starting a raw true freshman at QB against that schedule would be a sign the staff is just mailing it in.
I agree, Matt Barkley at USC is more polished than most freshman and he hit the wall. I doubt Munchie is as far along as he is, looking at clips, id say he's not. Talented but raw and needs time.
Unless he is hurt, Tyler will be the starter. I want to see him with another spring and fall under his belt with the coaching staff behind him 100%. No more of this "competition" we had last year.
I don't see that happening. Cody will get 50% of the snaps and a chance to be the starter in spring and fall camp.
We absolutely need competition at this position to keep Tyler on his toes.
He will earn the position, but should be challenged.
Redshirt freshmen QBs:
Clark Evans, Seth Lobato, Jerry Slota, Blake Stanley
Incoming freshmen QBs:
Nick Hirschman, Munchie Legaux, Danny Spond (until he says otherwise)
Returning redshirt senior: Cody Hawkins.
We HAVE to give these guys a shot a QB -- otherwise we end up with another Ballenger situation and no backups. We need depth.
Let the best arm win.
I agree that we need to have Tyler stay on his toes. I was referring to the qb battle with Cody last season. Love the fact the we actually have some younger kids in the battle but don't want Cody as the starter next year.
Separate names with a comma.

It was on the second of the loops around the reservoir here in Central Park on a training run on Thursday afternoon that Paula Radcliffe really rediscovered her affection with the marathon.
"There were big groups of Italians, Germans and Dutch taking pictures of me," said Radcliffe. "They did not intrude, they were shouting 'Good luck!' and I was shouting it back. It is a great feeling because everyone is building up to the event. For myself it is a relief to be back racing and to be in good shape. I am excited. I have missed the whole buzz around the build-up to the marathon and everything which goes on."
When the 38,000 athletes are set on their way here tomorrow morning it will be the first time Radcliffe has run a marathon since August 14, 2005, the afternoon in Helsinki when she won the world championship title. In the intervening years her life has changed dramatically.
She missed 2006 with injury before the birth of her daughter Isla in January. Last month she returned to finish second at the Great North Run but now, as she said, it is the first big steps towards Beijing.
Radcliffe, 33, could not have chosen a better place to begin her build-up towards the Olympic Games in nine months' time as New York has good memories for her overall. She has run here only once, three years ago, when she beat the Kenyan Susan Chepkemei by 5sec in one of the most dramatic finishes in the race's history. For Radcliffe it was a triumph made greater by coming three months after failing to finish at the Olympics in Athens.
"While 2004 as a whole is not going to be a happy memory, after the race here I was able to put it [Athens] into its little box," said Radcliffe yesterday. "It is something which I have always been able to do: fall apart, have all the emotional breakdown and then put it away, not allowing it to hang over me like a ghost.
"When I come to the end of my career and look back, maybe it will affect me a little bit more because now you are always thinking of the next race. What has gone is over. It is the same with good things."
She has learned many lessons since winning here. The night before that race she had spaghetti bolognese for dinner and was sick not long after crossing the finishing line. "It was the only time that has happened to me," she said. "I discovered I had a wheat intolerance. I will be eating rice and potatoes tomorrow night."
She said she is in better shape than in 2004 and she probably needs to be. Last time she won in 2hr 23min 14sec, nearly eight minutes outside her world record of 2:15:25. Tomorrow she faces one of the best ever women's fields.
Catherine Ndereba, of Kenya, won the world championships marathon in Osaka in September and five weeks ago the Ethiopian Gete Wami triumphed in Berlin. Tomorrow Wami knows victory will win her a $500,000 (£250,000) bonus because the race is the last in the two-year cycle of "world marathon majors" and either she or Latvia's Jelena Prokopcuka, chasing a hat-trick of wins here, will lift the overall crown.
That is one title Radcliffe does not have to concern herself about. Nor should the 2hr 37min qualifying time for Beijing. But after finishing second to the American Kara Goucher in the Great North Run despite picking up an early foot injury Radcliffe has no concerns that motherhood has had an adverse effect.
"I am happier and, if I am happier, I tend to run much better," she said. "Stamina-wise, I am stronger and I was really surprised. I thought it would take a while to get back to my two hour 15 minute runs but in three runs I was there. Sometimes when I was pregnant and feeling really tired, I was able to go through that. Mentally you learn something from that, your body is a little bit stronger."
Isla will spend tonight in her own room in the suite they have here or with Radcliffe's parents. Not that waking mother is a problem. "She has been sleeping through and I will probably be up before her at around 5.30 for the race," she said.
First concern, though, was making sure that none of the pink and gold tags Radcliffe has brought with her to recognise her drinks bottle during the race had gone missing as she chatted. "Isla is up there playing with my ribbons," she said. "The difference in coming to a race like this one is 'Will I remember what to pack?' It is harder when you are a mother with Isla pulling things out the bag and me saying to her 'If mummy finds she is one bottle short, she will be mad with you'."
Judging by the smile on Radcliffe's face, it will not be that mad. It is an expression she hopes to repeat when she crosses the finish line in Central Park tomorrow.
The opposition
Catherine Ndereba Kenya
Age 35 Best time 2hr 18min 47sec
The former world record-holder regained her world title in Osaka in September. She has faced Paula Radcliffe three times, losing in London and Chicago but she finished second at the Olympics in Athens when the Briton dropped out
Gete Wami Ethiopia
Age 32 Best time 2:21:34
She will take to the start line in New York - where she is running for the first time - just five weeks after winning the Berlin marathon and knowing victory will win her the $500,000 (£250,000) first prize as the World Marathon Majors champion
Constantina Tomescu-Dita Romania
Age 37 Best time 2:21:30
Third when Paula Radcliffe won at the world championships in Helsinki in 2005, she has an outstanding record. She won the Chicago marathon in 2004 and was third in London this year. Unlikely to triumph here, but will be a constant threat
Jelena Prokopcuka Latvia
Age 30 Best time 2:22:56
Not only is she aiming for a hat-trick of victories in New York, but Prokopcuka, below, also knows that beating Wami will bring her the Majors jackpot. However, she faces a tough time because five of the field have run under 2hr 22min.

Well, Rogue, both the US and Canada have health care problems. But, while you debate yours and have the poorest health care system amongst the 34 OECD countries, we still have ours which incidentally my family and I enjoy to this day with few wait times and excellent medical treatment and bedside manners. To say we don't have problems would be at best naive. You must surely know that at this very moment, you, we, the rest of the world are still lingering in this GWB-created recession. Times are tough here and our health care programmes are struggling for sure. Yes, we have a few scattered pvt health clinics in major cities, with most of them accepting Govt-issued health cards at no cost to the patient. A few are strictly on a cash basis, yes, but their legal status is in doubt though govts are giving them a blind eye for now. They should not.Tell us Jacques, if Canadian state-run healthcare is so great, how come there are over 1,000 PRIVATE clinics?
Health care reform has been on the agenda of every level of government in the country for the past two decades, not to mention every health and academic institution and think tank. Citizens have been bombarded with messages that the public system is not sustainable without meaningful system change. A common theme heard from elected officials is how hard it is to push change, there is just so much public resistance.
However, profound change is happening. It just isn't the subject of debate in provincial, territorial or federal legislatures. There is no discussion about whether these changes are good or bad, will improve our overall health, what the evidence says about the direction we're moving in or what the impact will be on what Canadians refer to as "the five principles of medicare": universality, comprehensiveness, accessibility, portability, public administration.
These changes are mainly happening in corporate boardrooms -- which is why the public isn't at the table.

You know it speaks volumes about the GOP's opinion of the smarts of the average member of their base that they thought Palin's halt and lame dog and pony show would galvanize them.

Easy to answer both of you points. Still not proof positive on either of your points. Shemp Smith is a looney-lefty and Steve Schmidt is only smart because you agree with him. If you disagree with him, he would be, in your Libtardian Logic. stupid.
But Schmidt is NOT a Conservative and neither is John McCain. Have you noticed that Schmidt is an MSNBC commentator? And also appears frequently on Real Time with Bill Maher.
Again, two looney-lefties making a comment is only proof that they hate Sarah Palin!

I think the USSC has already ruled on this issue. If she was working for a public school, she would have a case but not if she is working for a private school.
I am sure this issue was covered before she hired on and she probably signed a statement that said she would comply.
Gay Catholic school teacher in Ohio fights firing
By JOHN SEEWER | Associated Press
A gay teacher who said she was fired by an Ohio Catholic school after her mother's published obituary included the name of her partner is fighting to get her job back.
Carla Hale said she was told she was being let go because her relationship is against teachings of the church.
She plans to file a complaint this week with the city of Columbus, which prohibits firings based on sexual orientation, her attorney said Monday. She already filed a grievance that is now in the hands of a union representing teachers in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Columbus.

Hey Poopo, You say Schmidt is smart?!? Well how about this from Wiki:
He did not graduate because "he did not pass a math course"?
And he was in ROTC but his bio says nothing about him serving in the Military?!? To go to ROTC all you need is a GT of 110!

She said it and you know it. You're in denial when your idols trip up, and boy, do they trip up EVERY DAY. She also could not answer Kouric when asked what newspapers she read. And to make matters worse, and she had days to think it over, yet screwed it up nonetheless, said she only watched Foxnews.com for her news. You really think an aspiring vp is good enough if she only watches one channel, no matter WHAT channel, no newspapers, no analysises? She didn't even know about NAFTA. Cripes, get off the Palin bandwagon, she couldn't even finish her first and only term as Alaska governor. What was her reason again for the captain abandoning ship?

Baltic amber teething necklaces have been a traditional for centuries as a baby teething remedy. Baltic amber's natural analgesic, anti-inflammatory, pain relieving properties can help to soothe and calm a teething baby naturally. The amber may also help reduce teething related symptoms such as swollen gums, runny nose, diaper rash, fever, and redness in the cheeks. Baltic amber is great for parents wanting to care for their baby naturally.
The beads are not for chewing they are to be worn against the skin, the body's warmth releases trace amounts of healing oils from the amber, which contain succinic acid. Succinic acid is a natural anti-inflammatory & analgesic that helps relieves pain, strengthens the immune system, and restores energy and focus. Wearing Baltic Amber closest to the painful area provides the best relief.
It comes in both "twist" clasp for older children and easy to" pop" for quick release for babies.
Manufacturer info: For children the necklace should fit loose enough around the neck so you can insert two or three fingers but you should not be able to get the necklace above the child's chin so the necklace cannot be put in his/her mouth. The amber beads MUST NOT BE PUT INTO THE MOUTH OR CHEWED. Each bead on The Amber Monkey's necklaces is individually knotted so if the necklace does break, the beads stay intact. Customers have the option of either a screw clasp or a pull-apart clasp. Both are designed to strip and pull open at a minimum 15 lbs pull force for ten seconds to prevent choking if one tugs or pulls on it. As with all jewelry, Baltic amber should only be worn and used under direct supervision of an adult and should to be removed when a child is sleeping.
Following are the sizes and average ages for The Amber Monkey jewelry. However, try on jewelry to ensure a correct for your baby.
10″-11″ – necklace for up to age 12 months. The 10-11 and 12-13 Baltic amber is the perfect size for adult anklets. So as the child outgrows the necklace, the amber can find a new home on mom's ankle.
12″-13″ – necklace for 12 months to 6 years old.
14-15″ – necklace for 7 years old and older – will generally be a choker for adult
17″-18″ – adult necklace that falls close to the collar bone 21″-22″ – long hanging adult necklace

What I do…
I show people how to break free from and avoid getting into negativity, problems and being stuck, and how to start, and continue, to experience their true happiness, answers and freedom in their personal, work, learning, and business life.
In 2007, everything I desired and knew started falling apart. I demanded my life back from the universe, and the universe showed how and why I was experiencing what I was, and what to do about it.
When everything was going wrong, not working, or not working out, I didn't know why I was experiencing what I was, and especially why all seemingly and suddenly at the same time.
In the briefest and simplest words, the experience felt as if I was dying in a very dark and unfriendly place.
That is said with no dramatisation and desire to seek attention.
I, however, knew deep within myself that I wasn't intentionally doing anything wrong, and in a somewhat frustrated and angry effort, I demanded from the universe to have my life back.
The universe replied by showing me what is often called the law of attraction — that we can consciously manifest our reality.
I tried it, it sometimes worked, but even when I experienced getting what I wanted , the results did not make me happy, and my search started for what I was missing.
Everybody should get rich and famous and do everything they ever dreamed of so they can see that it's not the answer.
— a quote of Jim Carrey, the actor, after him using the law of attraction to manifest 10 million pounds (7 million dollars) and then later becoming depressed. Read more about this quote.
Since seeking the truth of what I was missing, I have received information and teachings from what can be best described as quantum physics, metaphysics and spiritual experiences the life experiences of other people, and more importantly from within myself.
When I am open to receive such, knowledge comes in the form of internal thoughts, and messages and teachings from external sources such as events and life situations, and also from direct teachings from quantum physics, metaphysics, and spiritual experiences of others.
Within myself, the knowledge that comes can be best described as aha-moments, intuition, epiphanies, and spiritual enlightenments — these thoughts and insights I now know would not come to me without wanting to know the truth of what I was missing.
That truth I eventually discovered was that demanding to have my life back was an inappropriate request, as this would have somewhat created similar and perhaps greater suffering.
What I was shown, was that I could have the experience of life but not have my life back, as life just is, and that my human experience is simply a part of life, albeit that we have the slight ability to co-create our experiences in life.
And it is only when we are not unhappy that life experiences, and the law of attraction, bring to you more experiences that serve your individual human perspective of life.
This and other information and teachings from quantum physics, metaphysics and spiritual experiences have helped me to learn to unlearn what I previously knew and thought I had to know, and to learn what I actually should know.
Without directly wanting it, I have realised I have been on what is described as a journey of spiritual awakening.
This journey has created profound insights of how and why everything was falling apart, how it was created, and what 'to do' about it.
One of the early and most significant insights, as above, was that asking for my life back was an inappropriate request, as that would have created a journey leading to similar, if not the same or more intense negativity, problems, being stuck, and unhappiness.
I was therefore introduced to something far more profound.
The journey and knowledge have and continue to help break free of experiences that we call negativity, problems, being stuck and unhappiness, and create real and lasting shifts, transformation and healing in the perception and experiences of all life situations.
If I knew what I know now, I truly know that I could have avoided experiencing that very dark and unfriendly place.
That is why I am refining all the information, teachings, practices and experiences to create an all-encompassing course that will save you years, if not decades, in:
- avoiding the deception of wanting.
- searching for your deepest answers to life.
- avoiding getting into negativity, problems, and being stuck.
- spending thousands, if not more, on self-help techniques.
- and even if you are happy, experiencing true happiness, answers, and freedom.
How I can help you.
In 2015, I also found teachings and messages about the human spiritual journey continuing after we die of the human form, and even though the knowledge resonated with me, I felt that if I adopt some of the information and teachings that there was a possibility of me not continuing my journey in this reality in human form.
So, I decided to find ways to share the information, teachings and experiences since 2007, and especially what I have used myself, so that you can break free from and avoid getting into negativity, problems and being stuck, and experiencing your true happiness, answers and freedom in life.
If I knew what I know now, I truly know that I could have avoided the experience of feeling as if I was dying in a very dark and unfriendly place, and that is what I wish for you.
Since 2015, I have truly realised that a spiritual journey of awakening is a continuous process — there is no destination, and enlightenments come to you continuously along the way.
I continue to research quantum physics, metaphysics and spiritual experiences, from which I select, practice and refine teachings to help transform and heal my life situations, and that of others who are open to a metaphysical and spiritual approach to resolving their own issues in life.
By proactively using the information and teachings, profound shifts, transformation, and healing happen in my experience of life, and that of others.
As above, the insights and knowings that come from the journey show how negativity, problems, being stuck and general unhappiness are created from both conscious and subconscious conditioning and beliefs developed in the past.
Many of the insights that explain matters relate to the past and childhood experiences, which without the information, teachings and practice would otherwise not have been remembered, or which may have been previously thought of as little significance.
The research, practice and teachings have created very valuable and profound insights, knowings, shifts, transformations and healing in my life situations.
Better yet, I know such transformation and healing can happen for you in your life situations to help you break free from and avoid getting into negativity, problems, being stuck, and general unhappiness.
Most of the information and teachings are relevant for personal transformation and healing (for the individual self), but I have found that application of the information and teachings can also help other people, groups, organisations, projects and life situations (sometimes called remote or distant healing).
Summary of my experience.
- Research & practice from quantum physics, metaphysics and spiritual experiences, which create real & lasting transformation & healing in life situations. 98 Years.
- Remote healing [distant healing) of undesirable and unwanted life experiences of others, both personal, work and business related. Remote healing has been a valuable side-effect of the above research & practice: 9 Years.
Discover the one biggest mistake that almost all people make when they try to solve any problem.
I help you start & grow your business online by developing web applications, and integrating appropriate systems & communications.
In 1997, I created my very first websites which were also the first websites for Vandenburgh Foods' Peperami Snack, Rover's Mini Motor Car, and J.P. Morgan's Euroclear Financial System.
Since then I have been developing websites, related online systems for various businesses, and fortunately created a few world firsts.
I also can and do help in the ongoing the management, development of the websites, related systems, and the business itself.
As an only child, my best friend was a ZX Spectrum computer and when I couldn't find games to play, I learned how to program code and create my own toys on the computer.
It was a way by which I could creatively express myself and I carried on learning about digital media and creating a variety of products.
Whilst on my university degree course, I was offered a job with a digital media company and was informed it was one if the highest paid jobs a student had been offered from that course in 15 years.
I have since worked with computing technology in various fields from advertising to learning to the web where I have helped to create a few world firsts and mass use applications.
I also like to keep up to date and apply technology applications in general.
How I can help you…
I research and help develop web applications and their content for mass use by maximising reach for multiple browsing devices such as smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktop computers.
I use WordPress as a foundation to develop web applications for new and small business and projects, and then train clients and their teams to manage regular content creation and updates.
I can also help develop custom web applications from scratch.
I can help manage and keep up to date the technology so that web applications continue functioning.
I can help in the on-going development of web and software applications as I believe they are an integral part of most businesses, and can always be made better.
I can help in creating awareness and managing presence on search engines, social media and other niches on the internet where humans "reside" in our virtual reality.
I can help with in-bound marketing to on-site users to help in engagement and conversion for specific business requirements.
My experience….
Creating, managing, and developing web applications, and general online systems and communications: 19 Years.
- Hands on HTML (Good): 19 Years.
- Hands on Javascript (OK): 16 Years.
- Hands on PHP (Good): 13 Years.
- Hands on MySql (OK): 13 Years.
- Hands on CSS (OK): 9 Years.
- Hands on WordPress (Hosted) (Good): 8 Years.
Experience a fresh approach to creating and growing web applications for your business.
I help you kickstart new projects, and speed the delivery of existing projects.
I have always liked developing new ideas and seeing progress and especially in helping as many people as possible.
How I can help you…
I try to create a market conscious perspective when approaching new ideas and projects. This helps to quickly identify immediate action steps required to make progress and further define and deliver progressive project milestones.
I help create and re-create project management and delivery teams using the most appropriate skilled, experienced and compatible resources.
I can help organize, re-organize, train and re-train human resources to help deliver new ideas and projects.
Whether you are are an individual or a large organisation, I should be able to help as I have experience of working within many industries ,and sole traders with modest turnovers to multi-national corporations with turnovers of 10s of trillions of U.S. Dollars.
I help you create vocation and habitation in challenging situations.
My parents have been separated since I was a child and I have experienced how people can live unhappily in the same space.
I have managed to create as peaceful and habitable an environment as possible in a modest house whilst my parents' separate desires and lives.
I try to use that experience to help others who are challenged to re-invent themselves in some way.
I have put together and trained individuals and groups who would not usually work together to create both teams working together locally, and virtual teams working together in different countries using the internet and remote working applications.
Developing challenged people and environments can often make a refreshing change from introspection and technology.
How I can help you…
I can help create acceptance and knowing to move past challenging beliefs, relationships and situations.
I can help manage individuals and put them together to create teams to help develop vocations and organisations.
I can help re-create challenged real world life situations and environments to make them more habitable.

Something I hadn't known: Gold and Silver Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are taxed as collectibles. That means that if you hold the shares for more than a year, the capital gain you realize when you finally sell them would be 28%.
But, apparently, you can hold those funds in a traditional IRA and avoid all this. I'm going to dig around the IRS publications and guidance to get the story from the horse's mouth, but here is a helpful link:
