Cute, Leslie.
You mean, normal people don't create back-stories for their costumes?

I love the backstory. LOL! And I'm positive Strawberry Shortcake should be disgruntled. Come on, they named her "shortcake"!
But you never tell us what Mr. Assassin went as.
Last weekend I made the mistake of bidding on several items in my daughter's school's silent auction. With an hour to go, I figured I wouldn't get a thing. I got three. THREE. *sigh* Thank goodness I didn't make any crazy bids.

Ahahahaha! I love it! That is EXACTLY how I think shortcake's life went. 'K, now I need to know what happened to her best friend, Blueberry Muffin?

"now I need to know what happened to her best friend, Blueberry Muffin?"
It was rather sad actually.
She eventually got toasted. She became bitter (not butter) because she was only a margarine (al) character.

Leslie, your creativity--and your backstories--always entertain. This is a riot!

Poor Blueberry. She never saw it coming.
Terrio, I can sympathize. One year at Festival of Trees I put three raffle tickets in for three different xmas trees. They collected thousands of tix per tree over 8 days. I won all three. That xmas, I had three, huge xmas trees in the world's smallest living room. A visitor remarked, "Man, you really must love Christmas."

I love it! A costume with a backstory seems perfectly normal to me. But what did Mr. Assassin go as?
- October 15, 2008 at 11:38 AM
- Terri Osburn said...
Three trees?! LOL! Now that's festive!

Great backstory!
- October 15, 2008 at 3:22 PM
- Leslie Langtry said...
Mr. A went as himself. He wore a polo shirt, jeans and boat deck shoes and a pair of Ray-Bans. I'll see if I can post a photo on this blog.
- October 15, 2008 at 3:23 PM
Priceless! I love your disgruntled face and your special hand gestures... and the backstory was the best part! VERY funny!!!
- October 15, 2008 at 11:50 PM
- Kathy Bacus said...
Cute costume, Leslie! And Editor Chris would SO love the brevity of your back story. (He's always nagging me to cut mine. Mission Accomplished, Sir, in ANCHORS AWEIGH, by the way.)
Oh, and I'm a Rainbow Bright fan, too, Keri.

Of course He-man took off with Gem, his mid life crisis hit him square in the flabby gut.
Have you tried using dishwashing liquid to get the smell out of your hair? Always worked on the doll in the early 80s.

I am a former reverend, "goody two-shoes" and all around ex-"lover of Jesus."
Yeah, I'm not too proud of my brainwashed days, but it's part of my history.
Now, I blog about my former church and my lack of beliefs. Almost everyone from my former church (including family and friends) has read my blog. Needless to say, I've disappointed MANY, many people.
Including, my parents.
I went home last weekend and was confronted by my dad who had to ask if I still loved God (to which I said no) and why I had to blame all churches for what happened to me in my church.
We argued for an entire hour. I think both of my parents know that I'm not a Christian anymore, and really don't like it. They do still love me and will never disown me, but jesuschrist, it's AWFUL to keep having these same conversations over and over and over with friends and family. Worse when it's family.
How did you come out to your Christian parents?
How did they take it?
How do you deal with statements and accusations made to you by "friends?"

I've been outta school for two weeks and I've been working on this program from my Com Sci class for about three hours. It's supposed to be something that will tell you what day you were born on. For some reason I keep getting the error:
I can't seem to find what's wrong. Here's my code:C:\Java\Birthday.java:53: error: variable total2 might not have been initialized
Total2 = String.valueOf(total2);
1 error
Process completed.
import java.lang.String; import java.util.Scanner; public class Birthday { public static void main(String[]arg) { Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in); int birthy; int birthyd; int birthd; double total2; String birthm; String leap; String name1 = "YES"; String name2 = "NO"; System.out.println("What year were you born in (two digits)?"); birthy = sc.nextInt(); System.out.println("What month were you born in (all caps)?"); birthm = sc.next(); birthm = birthm.replace("JANUARY","1"); birthm = birthm.replace("FEBRUARY","4"); birthm = birthm.replace("MARCH","4"); birthm = birthm.replace("APRIL","0"); birthm = birthm.replace("MAY","2"); birthm = birthm.replace("JUNE","5"); birthm = birthm.replace("JULY","0"); birthm = birthm.replace("AUGUST","3"); birthm = birthm.replace("SEPTEMBER","6"); birthm = birthm.replace("OCTOBER","4"); birthm = birthm.replace("NOVEMBER","4"); birthm = birthm.replace("DECEMBER","6"); int real = Integer.parseInt( birthm ); System.out.println("What day of the month were you born on?"); birthd = sc.nextInt(); System.out.println("Were you born on a leap year (YES or NO?)"); leap = sc.next(); if (leap.equals(name1)){ total2 = (((birthy/4) + birthy + real - 1)%7); } else{ if (leap.equals(name2)){ total2 = (((birthy/4) + birthy + real - 0)%7); } } String Total2; Total2 = String.valueOf(total2); Total2 = Total2.replace("1","Sunday."); Total2 = Total2.replace("2","Monday."); Total2 = Total2.replace("3","Tuesday."); Total2 = Total2.replace("4","Wednesday."); Total2 = Total2.replace("5","Thursday."); Total2 = Total2.replace("6","Friday."); Total2 = Total2.replace("0","Saturday."); System.out.println("You were born on a" +(Total2)); } }
And when I try anything out, I keep getting the day Wednesday. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
This is what my teacher attached to my email, it's the instructions he wanted me to follow.
Anything will help, thanks for your time.3) Create a new file named Birthday.java.
Write a program to determine the day of the week that a person was born given his or her birth date. Following are the steps you should use to find the day of the week corresponding to any date in the 20th century.
a. Divide the last two digits of the birth year by 4. Put the quotient (ignoring the remainder) in total. (For example, if the person was born in 1983, divide 83 by 4 and store 20 in total.)
b. Add the last two digits of the birth year to total.
c. Add the birth day of the month to total.
d. Use the following table, find the month number and add it to total.
Jan = 1 Feb = 4 Mar = 4 Apr = 0 May = 2 Jun = 5
July = 0 Aug = 3 Sept = 6 Oct = 1 Nov = 4 Dec = 6
e. If the year is a leap year and if the month you are working with is either Jan or Feb, then subtract 1 from total.
f. Find the remainder when total is divided by 7. Look up the remainder in the following table to determine the day of the week the person was born. Note that you cannot use this procedure if a person was born before 1900;
1 = Sunday 2 = Monday 3 = Tuesday 4 = Wednesday
5 = Thursday 6 = Friday 0 = Saturday
The user should be prompted to enter the birth month by number( 1 for Jan, 2 for Feb...) then the birth date and last the year in the format 1983. Make sure to give an error message if the birth year is before 1900.

Framework Compatibility
From Joomla! Documentation
The Joomla! Framework is mostly compatible with external frameworks. However when the framework loads by default, the libraries/joomla/import.php file actions a clean of the request variables. This can have detrimental impact upon any framework loaded into memory prior to Joomla! as their variables in global scope can be destroyed.
The solution to this is when you are loading up Joomla! to define the "_JREQUEST_NO_CLEAN" when loading the framework. This was fixed with #21772, see JoomlaCode Tracker Item #21772.
// Define JRequest::clean to protect our variables!
define('_JREQUEST_NO_CLEAN', 1);
// basic to make J! happy
define('_JEXEC', 1); //make j! happy
define('JPATH_BASE', dirname(__FILE__));
define('DS', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
// Load up the standard stuff for testing

Emulsifying Wax - NF Vegetable base is a nonionic self-emulsifying wax created to meet the standard for self emulsifying waxes monographed in the National Formulary. As such, it can be listed in your ingredient listing as Emulsifying Wax NF. It is mild, provides excellent stability, and is very easy to use. It can be used to make thick or thin emulsions, depending upon the concentration used.
While have temporaily discontinued the Polawax, Croda's brand of Emulsifying Wax NF, the continued price increases for this material have led us to bring in an alternative, competitive product that will provide excellent results at a more competitive price point.
Whenever a switch is made from one brand of Emulsifying Wax NF to another, it is important to conduct tests to determine if there will be changes to your formula that might require an adjustment of the percentages used. Our tests have indicated tha the Emulsifying Wax NF may produce a slightly thicker product than the equivalent percentage of Polawax Emulsifying Wax NF.
Recommended Use Rate: 2-25%, usually 3-5% for lotions and 5-10% for creams.

So with the announcement of Dynasty warriors 8: Empires, I thought I'd create this thread to feed on the scraps on information we can gather. So far I've seen, customisable flags and soldiers and a more elaborate marriage system.
The Empires entries in the series are my personal favourites and I can't wait until Autumn!

So, i have a JButton and a JTextField, and i need a way to connect both elements mouse events and make them act like JButton's mouse events. I.e., if i click on text field, button is clicked too, if mouse enters text field, then button acts like mouse entered it too, if mouse releases text field, then button acts like mouse released it too.
Now, what ways there is ? Is there something like button.setMouseState(entered), button.setMouseStateEntered(), or some other way to force mouse state for elements ? That way i could just set text field's mouse events to change button's mouse states.

Jim is truly the elite of the elite when it comes to massage therapist and holistic therapists, with a very real and professional approach. I came in with major injuries and imbalances and left feeling absolutely brand new. ProStar message is THE place to go if you're looking to recover and become a better you.
Fantastic place. Awesome value and super effective massage. I didn't have to tell where I was hurting and the therapist was able to get rid of all my tension and knots in my back. I would highly recommend this place.
First time ever getting a deep tissue massage and it did wonders for my shoulder tightness/pain. Felt like a new person walking out of there! Also Jim was awesome and super knowledgeable whenever I had any questions. Definitely coming back!
Jim is a master of his craft. Extremely knowledgeable in his field. Every visit I'm welcomed like I'm part of the family. Jim listens to what you're dealing with and quickly diagnoses the culprit and works his magic. This isn't one of those fluffy chained massage spa joints. You're coming here to get fixed. I'm an active weight lifter and deal with pulls, strains and tweaks. Jim has extensive experience working with pro bodybuilders and power lifters so he knows exactly how to approach my body. By far the best massage therapist in the state. If you're suffering from injury or just feel 'off', give Prostar a call, you won't be disappointed.
It's a shame that we live in a Westernized world where health care professionals, more often than not, want to merely throw pills your way treating symptoms, not understanding the deep seated etiology of what your body is undergoing and long-term opioid usage. Jim is a therapeutic guru, period. After initiating Gua sha and cupping treatment with him, my body has admittedly undergone a lot of physiological and mental changes, accommodating for years of competitive running, weightlifting, and daily stressors. It'll be a long journey, but one that I wholeheartedly entrust Jim to impeccably heal me.
Chris has a magic touch. Great with sports and deep tissue massage. Fantastic attitude and service. Best massage ever!
Absolutely amazing. Jim was incredibly knowledgable, friendly, professional, and clearly cared about my health. I won't go anywhere else except ProStar Massage. I couldn't recommend him more. I want all my family and friends coming here to experience real therapy. Affordable prices as well. Can't wait to go back!
I had been in pain for months after straining my groin in the gym and not being able to be very active as a result. I went to pro star for a general massage to stop being so achy as I waited out my injury and WOW did I get way more than expected. Chris worked out a ton of pressure that was held in my back that I didn't even know about! With surgical precision, he pushed on certain points and then massaged them out. As he did so I could feel the massive pressure I was holding build up and then flow right out of the affected area. He knew exactly what he was doing. Then Jim came to take a look. He noticed that my left hip was higher than my right, that my lat/pec area had some misalignment, and took a look at my groin issue. He corrected my hips very quickly. The groin took some more time but through stretching me and manipulation he literally put the muscles back where they had to be. At one point he had isolated and held the strained muscle in both hands, it was wild. Both gentlemen were happy to explain to me the various processes and procedures as they carried them out. My home recovery methods of 2 months did nothing but make things worse, an hour with these guys has me back in the gym 2 days later. Jim and Chris were both super friendly, informative, professional, all around great guys that fixed me up in ways I didn't even know needed fixing. I plan on going back for sure and recommend prostar to everyone!
Prostar massage took pains away that I thought were just normal parts of aging. I highly recommend them to everyone that asks.
Jim is extremely knowledgeable and helped me understand a long term lingering issue, now I'm feeling much better and excited to finally get back to squatting!
I've came to see Jim about 2 months ago for my upcoming bodybuilding show , and he's brought out muscles that you really couldn't see! I had a few issues and he fixed those no problem !!!!! Bottom line Jim is the man to see
Jim is spectacular! He uses a holistic approach to screen out root issues rather than a temporary fix like other places. Your service and dedication is much appreciated!
This guy is the best. He's got a plethora of different certifications for massage and healing. I've recommended many people to him. Very comfortable atmosphere and Jim is a really nice guy to talk to. With that said, I work out a lot and he really knows how to work on bodybuilders and powerlifters in ways you won't get from your average masseuse. Can't go wrong
I can't say enough good things about Jim when I came to ProStar for my first visit/massage. Right from the getgo when talking to him over the phone to see if his services would help me and my back problems, he was kind, caring, and extremely patient. He was very flexible in case I needed any urgent relief from my back pain. I sit all day at work and have been experiencing lower back pain over the last year. Finally fed up with it, I came to Prostar simply hoping for the best. Jim is a true professional, he addressed any questions and concerns I had in a very professional manner, but at the same time he treated me like I was family. He was able to target all my problem areas, help stretch out my body to make myself feel way more loose and actually open up my chest/back so I could actually even breathe better. My first breath of air after he did that I immediately felt different, more awake, and less effort than usual to get deeper breaths in. I feel worlds different from how I woke up this morning and I attribute that to Jim. I will happily refer anyone experiencing back pain or tight muscles to him. Truly amazing guy.
I have been working with Jim for over a month now. As a competitive natural bodybuilder who is currently prepping, my body is becoming more and more depleted and I am/was suffering from inflammation. Jim has been a life saver. Honestly without him I do not know if I would be able to train with the properly if I was not using him. He has done a fantastic job in reducing the inflammation, increasing my mobility and breaking up the muscle adhesions that were restricting me from posing properly and reducing my muscle definition. Highly recommend to anyone who wants be proactive with maintaining their performance.
Professional, relaxing, awesomeness. Went for the first time because of a bad lower back, thought I had bigger issues. Therapist Jim identified an imbalance in my hips and a tight groin just by looking at me standing before me saying a word. Pain is gone, more flexible than ever, feeling amazing after every session highly recommended. Amazing, just amazing.
Jim is the real deal, very knowledgeable and takes the time to explain what he's doing while he's doing it. Hands down the best therapist in the area. Thanks again!
Great experience. I would return.
jimmy is a dear friend and part of the family for years he is a good guy and cares for people his line of business is great he treats people great and he is always great with his clients he treats all clients with respect and cares for them as best as he can. Jimmy knows and met alot of professional people his business is top in his field and knows alot of people his messages is clean neat and is always professional he will treat you with care.
Receptionist who called and left a voicemail was extremely rude. My original review was in error.
Being in Law Enforcement and a competitive Powerlifter, my body takes heavy tolls from physical to mental. What Jim brings to the environment is something I have never experienced from any other Massage therapist. Every time I come here, I walk out as a brand new man. Jim has so much knowledge in the human anatomy that he patiently shares with all his clients as he works through each muscle group. If you are a competitive athelete or have a physical and mentally stressful occupation, this is the place to go!
From the second I walked in to this beautiful place I knew my experience was going to be a positive one. I was so relaxed and Jim did an amazing job! Would definitely recommend Jim and Prostar to anyone looking for a professional and comforting experience.
I can not say enough positive things about Jim, his services, and treatment. I was suffering from tennis elbow for about a year and a half, and as a bodybuilder, there's not many exercises that can be done with this type of setback.. I went though every possible course of treatment you can think of. Cortisone shots, chiropractors, massages, stim, ultra sounds. I received Jim's card through a buddy of mine who recommended him to me. After seeing Jim for about 2 months my tennis eblow pain was practically gone. He didn't just heal it, he gave me my identity back. He got me back to where I used to be. Without his help I would probably be still dealing with the same issue. I would highly recommend Jim to any person who is going through any type of injury, setback, or pain. Do yourself a favor, and see Jim for any type of injury!
As a indy prowrestler i Put my body through a lot of ppunishment, i Know lot about days of Restless sleep and Visits to the hospital Im not a paid spokesman, just a man who wants to able to play with his children pain free, and at prostar massage i get the proper treatment to go on day to day pain free without the use of pain killers At prostar massage, im able to walk out like a new person, pain free, great sleep and more relax. So if you need true healing Give jim a call, and get to prostar massage today, you'll be glad you did
I've been a client of Jim and ProStar for over 5 years now. He has helped me through a sorts of injuries (groin, shoulder, ankle, pulled muscle ...etc). No matter how many months go by he always takes the time to help. You will find yourself making a new friend there. Thanks for helping me with a speedy recovery.
Best Medical Massage around!
Chris is a gifted masseuse who listens to his client. His goal is truly to make you feel better and he succeeds in doing so. I have seen Chris several times and each time has been an excellent experience. He is knowledgeable, the place is super clean and the medical massage is very helpful!
Professional sports massage
I have had three sports massages with both Chris Santos and the owner Jim Jennerich on multiple dates ranging from 1/2019 to 7/2019. I was always accommodated with a reservation within the same week of calling. Both Chris and Jim were thorough with inquiring about my needs prior to each massage. I am very active and my muscles become very stiff and overworked. Both Chris and Jim have worked through my muscle knots using various techniques, including muscle stimulators. They also use the right amount of force that you don't receive at other massage businesses. I would extremely recommended this business.
Best Therapists in Monmouth County, hands down!
I have been trying to fix my left shoulder for over a year. Been to many therapists and I would have a few good days and then back to very limited movement and no real strength. After my first visit with Jim I had more mobility in my shoulder than I have had since my injury, and it's actually lasted for a long time! I was also able to start weight training in my shoulders again which I was ecstatic about because I had been neglecting my shoulders due to my injury. Recently I changed my workout routine drastically to train for obstacle course races. I've pulled a few muscles due to the tough and unorthodox workouts and I know if I didn't go to ProStar regularly I would have had too many setbacks to continue. I not only continue, but push harder thanks to them. Whatever I go in with Jim and Chris fix for me. Also, they give great recommendations for at home self care to continue to feel better. They have many other services to offer to go along with your traditional massage including electrical stimulation, acupuncture pen, cupping and more. They are very knowledgeable, effective, caring, and all around great guys! You will know from your first visit that they love what they do and take pride in their work because you can just feel it in the experience.. That and there are tons of accreditations on the wall when you walk in :). I always feel very comfortable when I go and know I am getting the best possible treatment. Best part is I leave feeling sooo much better. I'm extremely grateful I found this establishment and I won't go anywhere else. Really, if you have any type of physical ailment this is THE place to go!
Miracle worker !
Jim is like a miracle worker ! Many months of PT with no change in my sons injury, ONE visit with Jim @ Prostar and my son was smiling again !
Got me back to pain free
I came to Jim a mess I pulled my hamstring/glute/piriformis muscle and my hip joint was out of whack. I could barely get in and out of the car with out pain. After my first visit with Jim he got my hip back in place which made a world of difference. After my second visit i felt like a new person. I didn't realize how much pain i was actually in till i was able to move normally again. My lifts have been so much better workouts just keep getting better. And everyday living is much more enjoyable pain free. I go now for maintenance. Jim keeps me pain free... Client for life :)
High quality service to get me back to training again
I came to Jim with a pulled quadricep muscle and as a competitive power lifter I just can't have that especially since I'm training for my next competition in less than seven weeks. I was in need of a fix as fast as possible so that I could get back to training and reach my goals and I had set for myself. With just one session in Jim's office I was able to feel better and help the healing process expedited self with Jim's guidance and my own personal therapy. In just one week I was able to get back to training and do more than I had expected. I know without Jim's therapy I would not of been able to do this. As long as I am able to I will continue to use Jim every couple weeks to help progress my training and keep me competing as long as possible. I'm very grateful for your help Jim! Below with my text message to him after my training session… "Hey buddy super greatful you got me in last week. I was able to squat 550 lbs for 6 reps and hit my numbers today with no discomfort! I did feel cautious but I made it! You truly are a doctor brother! Thank you"
I've been going to Jim now for the past couple of years. He has helped me relieve and heal my neck and back pain. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to the human body and its functions. He knows what he's talking about. I'm very grateful to have found Jim. Whenever i come back from California I always stop in to see him so he can adjust me and see how I'm doing. The most important thing is he's a great guy and truly cares about the well being of his clients. Thanks a lot Jim! your friend, Freddy
I can not say enough about our how great our experience has been at Pro Star, My son Jack hurt his back playing football a few months back, he could hardly walk straight and was very crooked , he was going to PT for awhile and he seem to be getting a little better but not to much. We heard about Jim at Pro star and figured we would give it a try. That was the best decision we made .Jim has been working on my son the last 2 months and the improvement are unbelievable .We go once a week and when we are there Jim is 100 percent focus on getting my son better. He truly cares about his patients, Jim calls during the week to check on him and does research on his injury so that the next time we see him he knows what stretches and areas to work on. I truly believe going to Jim and Eric at Pro star my son is on the way to be back to normal. THANK YOU Jim and Eric you guys Rock . Jim and Jack Kugit
High quality, awesome service highly recommend
Jim at prostar is second to none. His work is great and is very knowledgeable. Any issue I had with my legs, back, chest, shoulders you name it he was able to provide service better than anyone else and got me 100% again. I highly recommend Jim and prostar for their excellent work
Very knowledgeable
Great massage from Davan! Definitely will return.Have TMJ issues..Much relief after the massage.
High quality service
I've been seeing Jim for about 2-3 yrs and I can't say enough good things about him. I'm a bodybuilder and my body takes a beating and Jim makes sure no little ache or pain holds me back. Very professional,knowledgeable and overall great guy. Business is
Expert and exceptional
It was my first time getting a shiatsu massage and I can not recommend anyone else after having perfection from Jim in all areas. Expert technique, quite litterally the hands of God. Briefly put I will continue to come back and strengthen my body the correct way through Holistic Heath
Great, professional, and genuine
After hearing good things I scheduled a deep tissue / sports massage to prevent injury. I ended getting a bad lower back injury two days before my appointment. I went in to see what Jim can do for me and he works miracles. He worked all around to make sure he got the area thoroughly and its surrounding areas. I woke up at least 75% better the next day and a week later almost 100%. Will continue to go back for routine massages to prevent further injury.
Very High Quality Service
Being in Law Enforcement and a competitive Powerlifter, my body takes heavy tolls from physical to mental. What Jim brings to the environment is something I have never experienced from any other Massage therapist. Every time I come here, I walk out as a brand new man. Jim has so much knowledge in the human anatomy that he patiently shares with all his clients as he works through each muscle group. If you are a competitive athelete or have a physical and mentally stressful occupation, this is the place to go!
Best massage I've ever had hands down
Relaxing and pleasant environment, very talented and professional massage therapist. Listens to the client and does great work on problem areas. Thoroughly enjoyed my deep tissue massage by Jim! Highly recommend!
Took my aches and pains away
One session took away pains i had for over a year. Jim really is a professional. I went in for a regular massage and he recommended a treatment for my ailments. I listened to what he told me and i now feel amazing. Defenitly need to check Prostar out its well worth it. Dont be fooled by chain massage places see a professional.
Best experience. Ever.
I found this amazing place thanks to a living social deal and I am forever thankful. Jim is an amazing licensed massage therapist who takes the time to listen and cater to your needs. Jim takes pride in his work and practice; this is clearly evident in the way he works and treats his clients. He clearly knows how to run a successful practice because you have to book him weeks in advance! I cannot wait to see him again in about 2 weeks. You have to come see Jim and his wonderful professional team at ProStar Massage and see it for yourself. You won't regret it!
At ease
I was very comfortable with my message therapist. She listened and was making sure she was applying the right amount of pressure to where I need it the most. Just one thing, they should have a water cooler or at least offer small bottles of water as you do get thirsty and need water after the massage.
Amazing customer service! Great work ethic and very knowledgeable in this feild!
Just have to say was recommend from 2 friends about Jim and his practice and was really pleased with the whole experience Jim and team are very professional and caring,from appointment reminder to a follow up call....there awsome Jim is helping me with a injury / injuries helping me understand what is going on and what's wrong. I definitely recommend using prostar and there services you won't be disappointed, just feeling better!!!!

ProStar helps me overcome injury
I've been a client of Jim and ProStar for over 5 years now. He has helped me recover for shoulder, foot, lower back, and groin sports injuries. Not only does he help me with a speedy recovery but he also takes the time to explain my injuries in detail. I highly recommend ProStar to be your massage therapist.
Excellent. Will definitely return!

Whole raw premium maca (Botanical names: Lepidium meyenii and Lepidium peruvianum) powder is better than any roasted maca, monster maca or gelatinized maca (fiber removed).

This raw maca can be powerful in its nourishing value. Many people usually take 1 to 2 teaspoons in a smoothie or recipe. Some people use 1 to 2 tablespoons (1/2 oz or 1 oz). It comes in various sizes, 2.2 lbs (1 kilo, a big bag of maca, will last a long time) and also a smaller size, 1 lb
Maca is a vegetable root or tuber, related to the potato family, which grows ONLY in the high Andean plateaus of Peru at altitudes as high as 14,500 feet above sea level. Our maca is cultivated in the highlands of the Peruvian Andes. Maca is used by the locale as part of their daily diet.

IBM has got it all wrong with its latest strategy for Lotus Notes. Trying to zest up the old fella, IBM has tacked on social computing features, but it's missed the Web 2.0 platform that will hammer in the last couple of nails in the Notes coffin, namely Wikis.
I've been a Lotus user and supporter for a good decade. It enabled me to develop a website that would be the foundation of my business, MediaConnect. Without Lotus Notes and it's ease of development, my business would never have got off the ground.
We dumped Lotus last year, to move to the more prevalent and far more flexible LAMP platform, but even having done so I was never able to find a platform better suited for doing what Lotus has always done best – that is building departmental, hack-your-own apps.
As such, I've been hanging onto Notes as our Intranet platform, but I've finally found a way to move on, and that's Google's recently acquired Jotspot platform.
I'd played with Jotspot before and been moderately impressed, but it wasn't until I recently started delving into its markup language and app-building capabilities, that it became very apparent to me that this was the future.
Let's face it, most intranets and indeed most websites are simply a collection of documents. That's what made Lotus so perfect, being a document-based database. To hack up an app you simply built a wysiwyg form, modified a view and you were away.
Wikis are even more simple. You just type.
However, I'd always considered wikis to lack power until I lifted the covers of Jotspot. I've also been checking out competing wikis like the offering from Australian company Atlassian, and I've finally found the direction that has enabled me to put to bed Lotus.
Social networking and social bookmarking are trendy, but thats not how real collaboration is done. Someone should have taken a good look at Wikipedia and how successful that's been in terms of what Notes is really all about, knowledge management and collaboration, before they got carried away with trying to build corporate equivalent of MySpace or delicious.
RIP Lotus Notes. Long live the wiki.

Alright, this is going to be a controversial one.
Last year I was all over the map with Jochen in the KFS competition. First I eliminated him with nary a thought or care, then I reinstated him thinking that he might be The One, and then I eliminated him again when I realized he was (at the time) unsigned beyond the season. After a full year of watching Yo-Yo, I feel I am finally in a postition to make an informed and fair ruling on his status as Kate's Potential Favorite Sabre. As you read this, please know that I respect and admire Jochen Hecht very much. I wish only the very best for him and his family, and I would never treat an actual human being the way I am about to suggest is the proper way to treat Jochen Hecht.
Let's begin….
Jochen Hecht is obviously a valuable member of the Sabres. He's hardworking, reliable, very handsome, and downright captainly. He's also signed as a Sabre for a goodly amount of time ("goodly" being some unit of years that I am too lazy to look up right now). There is literally nothing not to like about Jochen Hecht. He should be a front runner in Kate's Favorite Sabre Competition….but sadly, he is not.
It is my theory that Jochen Hecht was born to be taken for granted. I don't have any overwhelming feelings of affection for Yo-Yo, and yet, if he were suddenly gone, I would be devastated. He falls firmly into that "you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone" category, but the thing is, he's not gone and he won't be gone for quite some time, so it's my feeling that we should just go right ahead and take him for granted.
Jochen Hecht is the guy you call when your asshole boyfriend did something lame. Jochen will come over, he'll bring take-out, and he'll patiently sit on the couch listening to you whine and cry over another guy. He's the guy you call to get up on a ladder and get the dead bird out of your rain gutter because the task is too gross and scary to do yourself. He's the guy you ask to feed your cat while you're weekending in Niagara On The Lake with Paul Gaustad. Jochen Hecht is the guy you don't want to date yourself, but who you don't want dating anyone else either.
He never complains, he always does what you ask, and you love him for it….but he is not your Favorite Sabre. We take Yo-Yo for granted because that is all he requires. Someday, Jochen is going to have a gorgeous, smart, hilarious woman to call his biggest fan, and when that day comes our hearts will break because we will suddenly realize we loved him all along, but it will be too late. We'll pout and carry-on like complete assholes, but in the end we'll begrudgingly admit that he's way too good for us and he always was.
But for now, we frequently, knowingly, and happily take him for granted. That is how it must be.

Focus Financial Partners, a group of wealth management firms, said Tuesday that two former UBS (UBS) advisors have worked with it to start IFM Capital Advisors, a Denver-based independent RIA.
Timothy Kneen and Clayton Hartman, who managed about $1 billion in client assets, recently started the firm, which also has offices in Fort Collins, Colo., and Sioux Falls, S.D.
Kneen has been in the business for more than 25 years, while Hartman is a 33-year industry veteran. They are running the new firm with ex-South Dakota State Sen. Tom Dempster, another former UBS advisor, and 17 other ex-UBS employees.
"Given the recent Centerbridge investment in Focus and the closing of our $550 million credit facility this month, we will continue using our unparalleled access to resources to invest in teams like IFM," said Focus CEO Rudy Adolf, in a press release. "IFM is a prime example of the continuing trend of top-tier advisors leaving wirehouses. We are proud of our team's track record in facilitating successful transitions of sophisticated and complex businesses and helping them flourish for years to come."
The deal was facilitated by recruiter Mindy Diamond, president & CEO of Diamond Consultants. "Tim Kneen and Clayton Hartman's entrepreneurial DNA, their past successes as business owners, and their drive make them ideally suited to take their already successful business to new levels," Diamond said in a statement.
For its part, UBS said last week that it had recruited a team from Morgan Stanley (MS) with about $500 million in client assets. The Apex Group — comprising Adam Thomas, Mike Hennessy, Araya Mesfin, Brandon Brown, Jansen Bailey and Julie Bailey — joined UBS on Jan. 13 in Atlanta, according to UBS.
Other Recruiting Deals
Steward Partners Global Advisory, an employee-owned advisor partnership that is affiliated with Raymond James independent broker-dealer (RJF), said earlier this month that it had recruited two advisors from Morgan Stanley: Chris Reaney, who previously managed about $110 million in client assets, has joined the independent firm in Portsmouth, N.H.; and Rick Pignone, who managed some $240 million at Morgan Stanley, has come on board in Andover, N.H.
Last week, Morgan Stanley said it had picked up three advisors on the East and West coasts.
J. Patrick Kearns joined Morgan Stanley's McLean, Va.-based office from Fulcrum Securities. Kearns now reports to complex manager Michael Robinson. He has had yearly fees and commissions of $1.2 million and client assets of $185 million.
Michael Cott and Donald Nejedly moved to Morgan Stanley in Pleasanton, Calif. (near San Francisco), from RBC Dain Rauscher. The team reports to branch manager Michael O'Connell. It has combined production of more than $1 million and assets about $250 million.
Earlier this month, Tash Elwyn — who runs Raymond James' employee-advisor channel — said on Twitter that his group had recruited former-Morgan Stanley advisor Richard Vega in Hilton Head, S.C. Plus, Elwyn tweeted Tuesday that Alan Elovitz came on board in Dayton, Ohio, from Wells Fargo Advisors (WFC).

A few years ago, Ernest Greene received an email from Fred Armisen, then on the cast of "Saturday Night Live." They had never communicated before, but Armisen had a question: Could he use one of Greene's songs as the theme song to his new show?
"Without seeing any footage, I said, 'Sure, take it,'" Greene, who will perform as Washed Out at Virgin Mobile FreeFest's Dance Forest on Saturday, said. "I knew it would be funny."
Armisen could not have selected a more on-the-nose song than Washed Out's "Feel It All Around." The song, originally released in the summer of 2009 on MySpace, had quickly become the signature sound of "chillwave," a new genre embraced by many tastemaking blogs and mocked in other corners of the Internet as "hipster music." Armisen's new show, "Portlandia," lovingly skewers the hipster stereotype, and using Greene's song was a knowing wink.
"I think it's funny. I'm definitely aware of the connection to like, hipsterdom," Greene said. "That's really what the show is about: kind of embracing that lifestyle and at the same time making fun of it."
The 30-year-old Georgia native maintains a sense of humor about the "chillwave" label and its associations, but that doesn't mean he's fine with "Feel It All Around" defining Washed Out's sound.
So when it came to write and record his sophomore album, August's "Paracosm," he looked to push back against preconceived notions that he was a gimmick artist simply relying on computer programs in his bedroom. On "Paracosm," Greene — whose live show has morphed from a DJ to a full-band setup over recent tours — blends his trademark synthetic sounds with live drums, bass and guitar. The result is a noticeable-but-not-jarring addition of depth and texture to Washed Out.
The live show "started to lean a little bit more towards a rock feel. It just made sense with this record to explore that side of it more," Greene said. "I don't think it'll be like what every Washed Out record from now on sounds like, but for right now, it's made our live shows a lot more fun."
Washed Out's evolution on "Paracosm" wasn't limited to the sound. Greene, who still considers himself more of a producer than a singer/songwriter, improved his lyrics by writing with fewer abstractions and more "concrete" memories. For the first time, Washed Out's lyrics were included with the album.
"I think [the lyrics] just changed, just like how the music has changed," he said. "I guess my taste as a songwriter has changed a little bit more. I want people to make sense of what I'm talking about."
For an artist who came to define a genre seemingly overnight, Greene seems to gravitate toward new sounds all the time. After his touring ends in early December, he plans to begin work on a new Washed Out EP. Greene is already heading away from "Paracosm's" sound.
"I've been doing a lot more DJing recently and it just feels fresh," he said. "Some of the stuff I'm [working on] is a little more dance-y or sounds more like club music, but it still sounds like me."
Looking back at a few years ago, when the strength of "Feel It All Around" thrust him into the Internet spotlight and onto tours he may not have been ready for yet, Greene remembers the chaotic time as a learning experience.
"I think I learned so much through that process, kind of trial by fire," Greene said. "Over a year's time, I felt like I squeezed in five years of touring experience, which was a really huge help moving forward. I don't think I would change anything. I think we've done a fairly good job of remaining sane and making the right decisions."
If you go
Washed Out performs Saturday at Virgin Mobile FreeFest at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia. He takes the Dance Forest stage at 1:30 p.m.

Brunswick residents looking at possible 17 percent tax hike
Town facing loss of state revenue
Residents in Brunswick are looking at a possible 17 percent property tax hike after the town manager released his proposed budget.
According to the town manager's proposal posted on Brunswick's website, taxes would increase by nearly 12 percent, with most of the increase coming from the school budget.
The budget does not include any new services.
However, the Brunswick budget does not take into account any loss of revenue from the state, and Gov. Paul LePage's proposed two-year state budget calls for cutting revenue sharing to municipalities.
If the governor's budget is approved as proposed, Brunswick would lose $1.5 million, which would have to be made up through cuts or an additional 4.6 percent tax increase, according to the town manager.
Many residents are not happy with potential tax hike.
"Well it looks to me, one, they're shifting the taxes from the state level to the town level, and that's really a no-win proposition for the taxpayers, and it doesn't gain anything for the economy," said Brunswick resident Dick Darcey.
The governor sent a letter to cities and towns across the state on Thursday asking municipal officials to offer solutions to the state's budget problems.
In the letter, LePage said that education, health and human services, and revenue sharing with municipalities made up most of state spending, so he chose to cut revenue sharing.
"It is easy to find fault and hard to find solutions. I welcome any suggestions town officials have to cut elsewhere in the state budget, but it is time for everyone to set complaints aside and offer solutions," said LePage.
The Legislature, which is controlled by Democrats, is currently going through the LePage budget, so it is unclear what the final budget will look like.
This comes as Brunswick continues to cope with the closure of the Brunswick Naval Air Station.
A local real estate broker told News 8 the on-base housing stock is being absorbed.
Twenty-one of the old base housing-homes sold last year, said Tom Cole of The Maine Real Estate Network.
"The base housing that we have is being bought up mostly by single-family homeowners, and that's adding to Brunswick vibrancy. Brunswick has been building rapidly since the base has closed," said Cole.
Cole said the proposed tax hike won't help things.
"For example, in the last year, roughly 20 of the base houses were sold, and again they are low-price homes, but a good home, and a lot people have taken advantage of that; first-time homebuyers," said Cole.
Lynn Hull was one of those to buy a former navy base home last year.
She put together enough money to afford the mortgage and said the tax hike would put a squeeze on her tight budget.
"I'm a single mom, and I bought a house and I love this house. But I can't afford taxes going up on me all the time. Taxes and everything else," said Hull.
Hull said she may have to rent out an extra room in her home to be able to afford to stay there.

Annozilla XPCOM alpha available
Doug has been doing some excellent work on Annozilla, and there is an experimental version available. This brings a lot of new functionality to Annozilla (including multiple server support). This version will form the basis of Annozilla 0.4.
Annozilla 0.3.5 released
Annozilla 0.3.5 is released, mainly for compatibility with Mozilla 1.2 beta, but I encourage all users of 0.3 releases to upgrade, as it fixes a bug whereby some annotations would sometimes not be displayed.
This release is not compatible with Phoenix; this is expected to be (partially) addressed in the forthcoming 0.4 release.
This is the the Annozilla project, designed to view and create annotations associated with a web page, as defined by the W3C Annotea project. The idea is to store annotations as RDF on a server, using XPointer (or at least XPointer-like constructs) to identify the region of the document being annotated.
The intention of Annozilla is to use Mozilla's native facilities to manipulate annotation data - its built-in RDF handling to parse the annotations, and nsIXmlHttpRequest to submit data when creating annotations.
To use Annozilla, you will need to install the code, get set up with a user account with an annotation server (e.g., the W3C test server), and then you should be ready to go.
You can also see some screenshots - examples of Annozilla in action, and its integration with Mozilla. Currently there are screenshots for either the current released version, or the proposed new version which will be included in the forthcoming 0.4 release.
Please use the bug reporting mechanism or the mailing list to discuss Annozilla.
