Half-centuries from Simon Katich and Matthew Hayden helped get Australia off to a determined start on the third day of the third Test of the Border-Gavaskar series against India.
Resuming on 50 without loss in pursuit of India's mammoth first innings score of 613 for seven declared, Hayden and Katich put on 123 runs for the first wicket – their best stand in the series so far.
Katich, however, departed just before lunch, falling to leg-spinner Amit Mishra for 64 as Australia reached 151 for one at lunch with Hayden (59) and captain Ricky Ponting (14) at the crease with Australia 462 runs adrift.
Hayden, 16 overnight, had survived a torrid first over from left-arm paceman Zaheer Khan before finding some of his old touch.
Zaheer had knocked the burly left-hand batman on the helmet with a bouncer with the first delivery of the day, went past the outside edgewith his second and hit Hayden on the shoulder with another bouncer before the batsman put bat to ball.
Katich had looked far more comfortable, using his feet nicely to the spinners and easily dealing with the pacemen.
He brought up his half-century with a push off Anil Kumble to mid-on for a single, but fell while to rookie Mishra shortly after as he stepped down the track to work the ball away on the on-side,but missed the delivery and was bowled through the gate.
Hayden, who has struggled on this tour so far, reached his half-century with a classy cover-driven boundary off Ishant Sharma.

I couldn't think of any better way to kick off this week than by sharing this gorgeous Engagement Session! You may remember this stunning couple from their Universal Studios Surprise Proposal, which you can see here. That was really one of the most fun days that I have had with my couples! Megan and Brandon chose to do their photos in Downtown St. Augustine and on the beach, and really, we could not have asked for a more perfect day! Side note: Megan's outfits were absolutely to die for!
I was pumped to meet up with these two for the afternoon, but leading up to their session that day was bit of a frantic scene for me. I had planned to leave for St. Augustine earlier than I really needed to, but as usual ended up behind on time, but still on time if that makes any sense. However, as I packed everything in my car and went to start it, it wouldn't turn over. I was in panic mode! Thankfully, my dear friend, Amy, came to my rescue, took me to get a different vehicle and I was on my way! I wasn't terribly late, but still not on time either. As you know, I've known Brandon for several years now, so I was excited to get a chance to spend more time getting to know Megan! She is such a sweetie and has the best smile! We spent half of our time roaming the streets of St. Augustine and finding as many quite places as possible. St. Augustine is typically busy anyway with tourists, but with it being just a couple of days before Christmas and the Night of Lights and what not, the town gets even busier. However, we found some of the most perfect spots! Afterwards, we drove down to the beach to finish off their session. It was here that Megan found herself being complimented by half a dozen strangers or more on her gorgeous dress! She seriously did good on her outfit choices. I'm pretty sure I need her to remind me where she got everything from!! The beach was pretty quiet and for the most part felt like it was just us out there. We were blessed with beautiful golden light and pastel skies! As much as I actually love a good sunset, I also really enjoy the opposite skies and watching it being painted with soft cotton candy colors. Thankfully, we had both! Honestly, it was a great way to end a beautiful day!!
Megan and Brandon, I had the best time with y'all and I cannot wait for your April wedding!!
January 8th, 2018 at 11:39 am
Holly!! These are stunning. I love following your work and I'm always amazed at how unique each session is. I love reading about your couples and your funny daily stuff. Keep up the great work! 🙂

What Can Nicole Black do for Your Company?
Nicole's approach to success is through focusing on the employees an organization has. She learned from working for The Ritz-Carlton Hotel companies that the employees are the greatest asset of any organization. She can assist with team-building exercises as well as finding new and creative ways to increase productivity.
1st Year Revenue
As CEO of Renaud's Patisserie & Bistro, I grew the business from its first location to now 8 across Southern California, (despite the largest recession of this generation!).
TEDx Talk Views = Massive Reach
My TEDx is gaining traction as businesses are more and more understanding the importance of relationships and people to their bottom line.
"This is such an important message. Too many people take it for granted that they should have negativity when they leave a relationship, and that does so much harm. Thanks for shining a light on a topic that many people don't bring consciousness into!"
Nicole is a captivating storyteller with a message the world needs to hear!
I had the pleasure of sharing a TEDx stage with Nicole Black. Nicole's passion comes through as she brilliantly mixes in the myth of fairy tales with how to have a mindful divorce. A combination of wit and wisdom, she is engaging and humorous.
I'm Nicole Black, motivational speaker and corporate trainer in employee productivity and effective growth. For the past 20 years, I've been a part of helping some of the biggest brands in hospitality and entertainment grow sustainably through the development of their people. From Ritz-Carlton to Twentieth Century Fox, to Renaud's Patisserie & Bistro,
a company I co-founded.
I served as CEO during one of the most difficult economic eras in the world and seeing many other businesses that struggled to grow or went out of business, some of which were owned by my friends, I transitioned out of the CEO to the Chief Financial Officer and began speaking and writing about effective strategies and creative solutions for growing companies to succeed.
I believe that by sharing the lessons we learned in the first few years of operation we can help one another know what works and what doesn't. It takes time to build a winning team and mistakes can be costly. My vision is that more new businesses succeed. When everyone succeeds, confidence soars and our economy flourishes.
Some of the platforms that I've been featured on include: TEDxWilmington, Jack Canfield Show, The Santa Barbara Independent, Santa Barbara News Press, KKFX News in Santa Barbara, The George DiGianni show and the Tom Barnard Show.
"If you want to have a million dollar business,

I am fueled by the desire that in order to create a better world where everyone can thrive, that if individuals would learn how to lead with the inherent kindness that is in their hearts we would all achieve more and faster.

Fifth victim in KC trail case was less than a half block from home when slain
Steven Gibbons was returning home from the grocery store when a killer crept up and shot him in the back of the head Aug. 13 in Kansas City.
According to police, Gibbons, of Kansas City, never saw the gunman approach. He died a day and a half later after family members had him removed from life support at a hospital.
Prosecutors charged Fredrick Demond Scott in the killings of Gibbons, 57, and John Palmer, 54, after connecting him to the victims through DNA evidence. Scott is charged with first-degree murder and armed criminal action in each case.
Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker said Scott is also a suspect in three other killings along the Indian Creek and Blue River trail systems.
Gibbons, whose death was not among four unsolved killings previously linked by police, represented a fifth victim in the case. He was shot shortly after noon Aug. 13 in the 1100 block of East 67th Street, less than a block from his life-long residence.
On Tuesday, Gibbons' mother, Delores, recounted the horror of that fateful afternoon.
"He was almost home," she said.
Delores Gibbons, 80, said Steven routinely walked to a grocery store near Meyer and Troost, but would return home by bus.
Police found surveillance video showing Scott follow Gibbons off a KCATA bus before Gibbons was found shot. Detectives later linked Scott to the scene with DNA from a iced tea bottle and a cigarette butt.
"He took the same route every time," Delores Gibbons said. "He would leave the house everyday, go down to Aldi's (at Meyer and Troost), get what he needed to get, and then catch the bus back up the hill (to 67th Street) and walk down. He did that everyday."
Gibbons' sister, Donna, said she heard what she thought was a firecracker around the time her brother was shot.
"Little did I know it was a gunshot," she said.
Still, Donna Gibbons said, she never thought Steven was on the ground gravely wounded.
"I think I'm still in shock to this day," Donna Gibbons, 59, said. "I still can't believe it. I mean, he almost made it back here. He was three houses from home."
Delores Gibbons went into what she called "mom speak" to describe Steven Gibbons. She said he wasn't able to work due to physical limitations, but was always willing to lend a hand.
"Anybody that knew him would tell you that he would give you the shirt off his back if he could," Delores said. "He didn't have much money or anything like that, but he would help anybody that asked.
"That's what makes it so bad because he never did a bad thing to anybody that I ever knew."
Steven Gibbons' body was cremated, Delores said. She plans to write a small obituary on Friday now that charges have been filed against Steven's suspected killer.
Gibbons leaves behind two daughters, ages 39 and 34, in addition to Delores and Donna.

Asthma medication may prevent loss of joint motion following injury
One cold morning in January 2015, Jacqueline Burrus ran to catch a bus and slipped on the ice. She put her right arm out to break her fall, and in that instant her life was changed forever.
"I hit the ground, got up right away, brushed the snow off my coat and walked on the bus. It wasn't until I sat down that I realized my elbow was killing me." An X-ray and CT scan confirmed she had multiple fractures in the bones that make up the elbow—the radius, humerus and ulna—and she was immediately scheduled for surgery.
The road to recovery has been long for Burrus. "After the surgery my elbow was locked in a 90 degree angle," she says. "I had severe pain and after seven months I still couldn't move my elbow." She was referred to Dr. Kevin Hildebrand for a second surgery to help regain her range of motion, but even after months of physiotherapy her elbow mobility is still severely restricted.
Stiff elbows often occur post-surgery
Loss of joint motion following an injury, otherwise known as a post-traumatic contracture, is a common complication following fractures. "Many people with elbow fractures or dislocations lose elbow motion and 10 to 15 per cent require surgery," says Hildebrand, an orthopedic surgeon and University of Calgary researcher in the Cumming School of Medicine's McCaig Institute for Bone and Joint Health. "People with a joint contracture can have trouble dressing, eating, grooming and reaching. They're simple little things we take for granted but make a huge difference in daily life."
For Burrus, the impact of her injury is significant. "It's been a big challenge to learn how to live like this," she says. "I've had to learn to do everything, including write, with my left hand. All the sports I used to enjoy—swimming, yoga, skiing, volleyball—I can't do anymore. I often have horrendous pain in my shoulder and neck because those muscles do a lot of compensating for my elbow."
Research suggests new purpose for asthma drug
Hildebrand's research focuses on the joint capsule, the critical structure that limits motion after an injury. The joint capsule connects the ends of the bones that form a joint and is made of ligaments and tendons. In an injured joint capsule there is an increased number of mast cells, a cell type associated with inflammation, asthma and excessive scarring.
Hildebrand's research has shown that ketotifen, a medication used to treat asthma for over 40 years, shows promise in preventing post-traumatic contractions. Ketotifen works by inhibiting the activity of mast cells. "The prospects of using this drug to treat contractures is exciting. We know it is safe, it's readily available in pill form and it's inexpensive," says Hildebrand. But before ketotifen can be prescribed for joint injuries, its effectiveness needs to be proven.
With funding from the U.S. Department of Defense, Hildebrand has launched a multi-centre clinical trial in 16 centres across North America. The four-year study, which begins in April 2018, will recruit 702 people who have sustained an elbow injury that requires surgery. Participants will randomly receive either ketotifen or a placebo for six weeks after surgery, and then elbow range of motion will be measured for up to one year after the injury.
Ketotifen offers hope for the future
At this point, Burrus doesn't qualify for the ketotifen study because the drug needs to be given right after surgery, but she sees hope in the new study. "I wouldn't want anyone else to go through what I have, because this has been an interesting adventure," says Burrus. "I do have faith that there is way to resolve this issue somehow."

Double-digit rate increase is an outrageous request
Golden State Water Co. has a rebellion on its hands. It deserves it. In several communities across the state, ratepayers are boiling over steep rate increases the water purveyor is requesting from the California Public Utilities Commission.
Overall, the company is seeking a $58 million increase from its 256,000 customers in 2013, followed by anearly $9 million increase in 2014 and another $11 million in 2015. Customers— as well as some of the public officials who represent them — have been outraged.
Ojai residents have asked a local agency, the Casitas Municipal Water District, to use the power of eminent domain to buy out the water company and take over service.
In Barstow, the mayor has asked the state Attorney General to investigate, and the entire City Council asked the state Public Utilities Commission to deny the utility's request for nearly 30 percent in rate increases over the next few years.
Closer to home, more than 100 people packed a meeting room in Los Osos recently to protest the increases at aPublic Utilities Commission hearing. San Luis Obispo County Supervisor Bruce Gibson said he doesn't believe the company has given adequate justification for the 48.9 percent increase it's seeking from the 3,300 customers it serves in Los Osos and Edna Valley. That would raise the average monthly bill to $85.50, from the current $57.44. And that's on top of a27 percent increase approved for 2011 and 2012.
Golden State is justifying its rate increase requests by pointing to a laundry list of improvements it's planning in various service areas; to rising labor and maintenance costs; and ironically, to a drop in water use attributed to conservation.
In its application to the Public Utilities Commission, it also says the rate increases "are necessary for GSWC to earn a fair, just and reasonable return on the capital it invested."
Golden State does deserve a reasonable return on its investment, but the utility is woefully out of touch with reality if it expects ratepayers to swallow such big rate increases, especially when so many families are struggling in this economy.
Residents of Los Osos are particularly hard hit, since many of them will also be paying for the new sewer project.
Ken Petersen, the coastal district manager for Golden State Water, says $5 million in upgrades are needed in Los Osos and Edna over the next three years, including a new well in Edna and the replacement of a50-year-old reservoir in Los Osos. The reservoir, he said, could fail in the event of an earthquake or other catastrophe.
We understand that Golden State Water needs to make some capital improvements and it must be able to pay off those projects. But saddling a captive audience of customers with a nearly 49 percent rate increase in a single year is outrageous.
The company must find a way to reduce the burden on ratepayers, whether by cutting expenses or putting off capital improvements. After all, cities and other public agencies that provide water, sewer and other services have managed to do so.
The Public Utilities Commission will rule on the rate increase application late next year; it should deny it. To do otherwise would only reward a company that has shown too little regard for the financial well-being of the ratepayers it should be committed to serve.
Editorials are the opinion of the Tribune.

It's Been a Crazy Winter for Muscle Car Enthusiasts this Year
Out here on the West Coast, Southern California to be exact, we aren't accustomed to putting away our cars for a given amount of time due to inclement weather. At least that was the case until the winter of 2017 when the skies opened up and gave us the wettest rainy season we've seen in years. It was highly unusual, hitting up the local weekend morning coffee cruise sites and seeing large numbers of empty parking spots due to low car counts. And it was even worse on cold, partly cloudy days with just a slight threat of rain.

The Eggbutt cheekpiece prevents pinching of the lips and give a slightly more solid feel against the side of the face. It also prevents the bit being pulled through the mouth.
Our Snaffle is a popular bit due to the curved mouthpiece which distributes pressure more evenly over tongue and bars. With the offset centre link it will reduce the nutcracker action and pressure points on the tongue.
All Bomber bits are made from blue sweet iron, because it:
- oxidises easily
- encourages salivation
- helps bit acceptance
- is warm and sweet
Please note that due to the oxidisation the blue will fade with use.

Mercato nel Campo 2014 !
The best of the winter – Christmas is coming! Probably in your city you can see it all around. So do I, here in Siena. The history center's streets are decorated with lights and with a big Christmas tree. This makes a great and unique atmosphere that attracts us to leave our houses in the evening! With pleasure!
And as I wrote last year good moments are passing so fast! But the most important is that they are coming again. Saturday 6th December and Sunday 7th December since 8 am till 8 pm, Siena hosted: Mercato nel Campo. Weather was really good and center of Siena in the incredible crowded! It was hard to move.
As you already know (from last year :)) Mercato nel Campo is a modern market of tradition and excellence of Siena.
On Piazza del Campo were located over 140 sales counters. We had again a great possibility to admire arts of the local artisans that performed their work live and buy handmade goods and unique Christmas decorations.
However we are in Italy and the most important here is of course food and eating. So the most occupied were food's stalls. Sellers encouraged us to taste and purchase their products! It wasn't hard because after tasting it was hard not to buy to taste more! Also amazing smell in the air made you for sure hungry! Typical products that is of course cheese (with pecorino ahead); wines; virgin olive oil; huge choice of honey; meats; sweets; pasta; marmalade . . .
After food (couldn't be inversely of course) we could pass the other part . . . of stalls. There mostly Christmas decorations so this what we need now the most! I wasn't able to take my eyes off stalls! So we could get something that will remind us that Christmas is so close or something that will be a very nice gift!
These two days were again priceless . . . Now we are waiting for Christmas and for next Mercato nel Campo.
Have a nice and sunny week ! 🙂
Il Panettone!
Let's increase the level of endorphins! A bit of sweetness is always good for us!
Today about il Panettone that is tradition for Christmas and New Year. Lucky we got it as a gift 1st of January 2014!
It is sweet bread loaf from Milan and is a symbol of this city. But it is popular not only in Italy but also, inter alia in Spain, Portugal, Brazil, Peru, Malta, Germany and Switzerland!
As I wrote the cake is derived from Milan, from the time of Ludovico il Moro, and it is still produced according to the 500 years ago. In Milan until 900 were among many bakers and confectioners to produce the cake, but today large industrial firms that are located in Italy produce il Panettone. However in Milan are still many artisans who produce a cake according to the traditional recipe.
Il Panettone has characteristic shape (cupola shape) and packaging (1kg weight, in tall decorated boxes).
Unfortunately preparing process lasts long and involves the curing of the dough (made with water, flour, butter, eggs) which is acidic. The proofing process takes some days and gives the cake its characteristic fluffiness.
The best what you can find is of course inside: candied fruits(citron, orange); raisins ; lemon zest as well as chocolate. The result is commonly referred panetton CANDIO.
What is more here and there il Panettone can be served with crema di mascarpone.
Il Panettone you can find easily in supermarkets or smaller shops. You should only remember that cake is generally only available seasonally. Then only get your slice of this dainty and enjoy the great taste with a glass of sweet wine (for example Asti or Moscato d'Asti) or sweet hot beverages. Buon appetito !! 🙂

Let's go abroad! Why not . . . Berlin!
This year I had an opportunity to visit for a short time the capital of Germany. I spent a great evening admiring Weihnachtsmarkt am Alexanderplatz. Although couldn't try their Bratwurst but I tasted Glühwein and enjoyed everything all around! For a short time I could feel like in a fairy tale!
What is more in Berlin you can find much more Christmas Markets and everything takes place every evening since the end of November till the end of December!
Christmas Markets in Berlin are already finished as well as about to finish is the year 2013. But nothing is lost! If you are in Berlin next year November/December (on your way to Tuscany), you will get to like for sure this special atmosphere! I guarantee you !

Panforte di Siena !
Do you remember Ricciarelli di Siena? I hope so!
Today let me introduce you another delicacy, frankly speaking my favorite-Panforte di Siena. Trust me without it you shouldn't leave Siena. Also the most popular in Christmas time but available throughout the year. So don't worry you can taste it and get it here when you want!
As I mentioned it is for me (next to chocolate) the best sweetness. That is why maybe I'm not objective but it is not a big deal for you I guess!?
Panforte is called as a traditional Italian dessert that contains fruits (for example candied orange and cedro peel) and nuts (mostly my almonds). It is derived of course from Siena. Can you imagine that from 13th century. It is like tasting history! What is more ''(…)documents from 1205 show that panforte was paid to the monks and nuns of a local monastery as a tax or tithe which was due on the seventh of February that year(…)''(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panforte).
Panforte (literally "strong bread") has very characteristic look – thick and dense cake. And it seems hard to prepare. But as everything to eat in Italy it is simple to make (fortunately)!
Thus sugar is melted in honey and various nuts, fruits and spices are mixed together with flour. This everything is then baked in a flat pan. So easy, isn't it? The taste is for me unique and totally priceless. . . For sure the most impact have spices and perfect quantity of ingredients. In Siena it is sometimes said that Panforte has to have seventeen different ingredients that reflects the number of Contrade.
Here as you will for sure notice our Panforte occurs in a variety of sizes, tastes and wrappings. That is why price is different. But certainly it is not a cheap tidbit!
But as you can guess for sure it is worth its price! What is more you shouldn't even consider how much you have to pay ! Then you can enjoy the uncommon taste with for example cup of coffee or glass of wine! And certainly not only during the Christmas that is so close!

AceShowbiz - Chloe Moretz and Dylan O'Brien have sparked dating rumors after they were spotted hanging out together. The 21-year-old actress and the 26-year-old actress were pictured making separate exits at The Nice Guys in Los Angeles on Tuesday night, August 7.
They, however, got into the same car and headed into their next destination, the popular nightclub Avenue, together. They were not alone though, as they were reportedly joined by friends for the car ride.
"Chloe and Dylan arrived at The Nice Guy and left together, but were also with a few other friends. They were having drinks and dinner inside the restaurant as a group and it seemed casual," a source tells E! News. "They didn't leave each other's sides while in The Nice Guy and were taking photos and laughing together."
The so-called insider notes that the two stars didn't engage in any PDA, but it "seemed like they were definitely enjoying each other's company and were trying to be under the radar as they sat in the back of the restaurant."
Another eyewitness at Avenue shares, "Chloe and Dylan came to Avenue last night together. Once inside they met up with a group of friends and hung out together at a table by the DJ booth."
A third source adds that Dylan is currently single. He previously dated his longtime girlfriend Britt Robertson after meeting while filming the 2011 movie "The First Time", but they have not been seen together since earlier this year.
The outing comes seven years after the "Teen Wolf" alum revealed his crush on the "Carrie" star in 2011. "I wanna give a special shout-out to Chloe Moretz because she is the most bad-a** little chick that I've ever seen," Dylan said in an interview with Hollywire at the time. "What she did in 'Kick-Ass' was amazing and I have a crush on her."
Months later, Dylan retracted his comments after finding out that Chloe was only 14 at the time. "So I'd like to take that back and I'd like to retract and say that I think Chloe Moretz is a very cute and talented girl, I don't have a crush on her," he said, before adding, "She's a good actress."
Chloe was in an on-again, off-again relationship with Brooklyn Beckham since 2016, but they called it quits last spring.


text: In most U.S. states, job markets show signs of lifeMichigan's jobless rate plunges from high of 13.3 per cent to 10.3 per centBy Lisa Lambert04/19/2011|hrreporter.com|Last Updated: 04/19/2011 WASHINGTON (Reuters) — Employment steadily improved in most U.S. states in March, and jobless rates dipped in states that had posted record highs just a few months ago, according to government data released on Tuesday.Unemployment rates fell in 34 states in March from February. Only seven states saw rates rise, while rates in nine states and the District of Columbia were unchanged, a Labor Department report showed.Compared with a year ago, jobless rates fell in 44 states and the District of Columbia.Nevada again notched the highest rate, marking at least 10 months in a row when it has registered the worst unemployment conditions. But it continued to back off its record 14.5 per cent jobless rate hit in December, dropping to 13.2 per cent in March.California, with an unemployment rate of 12 per cent, and Florida, at 11.1 per cent, followed, though those March rates also showed declines.Michigan, which stood out during most of the 2007-2009 recession with the country's highest jobless rate as the automotive industry cratered, has started to show signs of a revival.In March, its jobless rate showed the biggest decline from a year earlier, falling by 1/10th of a percentage point to 10.3 per cent. In March 2009, the rate stood at 13.3 per cent.Total employment in Michigan increased by 11,000 in March, while unemployment declined by 7,000, said Rick Waclawek, director of Michigan's Bureau of Labor Market Information and Strategic Initiatives. ``Michigan's labor market indicators have shown steady improvement in the first three months of 2011,'' said Waclawek in a statement. ``Compared to this time last year, the state's jobless rate has fallen significantly while private sector payroll jobs have increased by 98,000 or 3.1 per cent.''The recession only spared a few states, but the recovery has been uneven. Many states that were hardest-hit by the housing collapse have taken the longest to come back.For Georgia, the March jobs numbers show that economic recovery may have taken root, with the jobless rate in March down to 10 per cent.``The drop in the unemployment rate is encouraging, but I'm more pleased that we've now had two consecutive months of job growth, coupled with fewer layoffs,'' said State Labor Commissioner Mark Butler in a statement. ``It appears that employers are growing more confident that our economy is improving.''Commodities rich states, which were last to enter the recession and first out, remained standouts. North Dakota held the lowest jobless rate in March, at 3.6 per cent, followed by Nebraska, at 4.2 per cent, and South Dakota, at 4.9 per cent.``North Dakota's unemployment rate continues to post at less than half the nation,'' said Michael Ziesch, research analyst for the state's job service. ``Labor market gains are spread out amongst almost all sectors of the state's economy, and led by strength in agriculture and energy.''The U.S. unemployment rate was 8.8 per cent in March, and the Labor Department said 22 states ``posted jobless rates significantly lower than that.''The number of jobs also rose in many places. Altogether, nonfarm payroll employment increased in 38 states and decreased in 12 states and the District of Columbia in March. Texas added the most jobs, 37,000, followed by Missouri with 24,300.

Balance - Moderation - Sustainability
The problem
Restrictive and unrealistic meal plans:
Meal 1: 6 egg whites, 1/4 cup cream of rice
Meal 2: 8oz tilapia, 10 asparagus spears
Because 11 asparagus spears is just far too many....
Meal 3: 8oz chicken breast, 1 cup brown rice, 1 cup broccoli
Arbitrary restriction/elimination:
"don't eat anything you can't pronounce"
That idiotically rules out quinoa, aubergine, hor d'oeuvres, 1,3,7-TRIMETHYLXANTHINE (caffeine), or Allium cepa (onions) just to name a few.
"no carbs after 6pm"
So.... what exactly happens at 6:01pm that makes this bad?
"no white colored foods!"... I KNOW you've heard "cut out all sugar."
There goes potatoes, bananas, rice, garlic, white onions, milk, cauliflower, apples... wait, is it white on the inside or outside or both?
Pure anecdote:
Maybe you have a friend who swears by this one "cutting edge" 7 day detox, cleanse, or miracle supplement that costs $150 that some celebrity endorsed.
Because a celebrity would never endorse useless things for financial gain.
Or that person at your gym or work who does this 'one weird trick' that is responsible for all their results.
... My apologies Susan, but wearing mismatched socks and listening to Taylor Swift while gargling apple cider vinegar upside down isn't responsible for you losing 5lbs. Correlation does not mean causation.
Sound familiar? Of course they do because there some batsh*t crazy stuff out there and all of the above started by having a glimmer of truth but enough people blew it out of proportion, twisted it, removed context and it became something it was never meant to be. I have personal experience going through some of the above. It was unnecessary, restrictive, unrealistic, difficult to stick to, stressful, and most of all - I hated it. I missed out on social events, time with friends and family, weddings, and felt guilty when I went 'off plan' just a little. What's worse, it also negatively impacted the people close to me.
Nutrition is not a light switch. It's not "on and off" or black and white. Arbitrarily labeling foods as "good" or "bad" or putting unfounded & ridiculous protocols in place is not only wrong and misleading but can be quite detrimental in the long term. And it certainly doesn't teach you anything.
A Solution
At this point if you haven't forcefully exhaled air through your nose resulting in an awkward snort or at the very least gotten a chuckle out of appreciation for my sense of humor - I don't have a solution for you. If you did, keep reading...
Everyone is different. People have different goals, different bodies, different schedules, and different priorities. Instead of fitting people into a cookie cutter diet, fad nutrition approach, or telling people to eat only from an 'approved food' list, I work closely with you to develop an individualized strategy rooted in a flexible dieting approach. Macro & micro nutrient recommendations are based on the current body of peer reviewed evidence and the overall approach is enjoyable, flexible, and realistic for you.
There are no 'off limits' foods and no extreme protocols. I take time to build a relationship and rapport with you, teach and educate you, provide guidance, advice, and insight. Over time, you will develop a skill set and awareness that you will have for the rest of your life. It will serve you when traveling, at social events, when you are home with the family, or running around during those stressful times when you can't seem to catch up to everything life is throwing at you.
Don't be mistaken. It will be challenging, it will be different from what you are currently doing, sacrifices will need to be made, you will absolutely have to change what you do each day and it won't be a quick fix or an easy process. But it will be worth it. No great success in life was ever achieved without discomfort.
Become a master of the simple and basic principles that have the biggest influence on your results.

Imc Tools Used by Lux
The great Indian brand wagon started nearly four decades ago. Great brands sometimes outlast their ambassadors as proven by Lux which celebrated its 75th anniversary in India.
The first ambassador, Leela Chitnis featured in a Lux advertisement which flagged off the Lux wagon. She gave way to a galaxy of stars which includes Madhubala, Nargis, Meena Kumari, Mala Sinha, Sharmila Tagore, Waheeda Rehman, Saira Banu, Hema Malini, Zeenat Amaan, Juhi Chawla, Madhuri Dixit, Sridevi, Aishwarya Rai and Kareena Kapoor. The last frontier for most actors aspiring to stardom is becoming a Lux ambassador. The brand has outlasted many soaps. From the beginning, Lux became a household name across the country.
Sales Promotion
Sales promotion, a key ingredient in marketing campaigns, consists of a collection of incentive tools, mostly short term, designed to stimulate quicker or greater purchase of particular products or services by consumers or the trade.Whereas advertising offers a reason to buy, sales promotion offers an incentive to buy.
Prominent Sales Promotion Schemes Used By LUX
Lux presented 30 gm gold each to the first three winners of the Lux Gold Star offer from Delhi. According to the promotional offer that Lux unveiled in October 2000, a consumer finding a 22-carat gold coin in his or her soap bar got an opportunity to win an additional 30 gm gold. The first 10 callers every week got a 30 gm gold each. The offer could be availed only on 100 gm and 150 gm packs of Lux soap. Lux Star Bano, Aish Karo contest: All one needed to do was buy a special promotional pack of Lux soap. The pack comes with a special scratch card. The 50 lucky winners and their spouses were flown down to Mumbai to live a day like Aishwarya Rai would. They could also be given gift vouchers worth Rs 50,000 from Shoppers' Stop along with an exclusively designed Neeta Lulla sari and a beauty makeover by Michelle Tung, Aishwarya's preferred designer and stylist. The pièce de résistance was a dinner date with Aishwarya Rai herself. Lux celebrated 75 years of stardom with the Har Star Lucky Star activity. All wrappers of Lux had a star printed inside them. If the consumer found written inside the star, any number from ―1 to ―5, she would get an equivalent discount (in rupees) on her purchase from her shopkeeper. If the consumer found ―75 years‖ written inside the star, she will get a year's supply of Lux free. Public Relations
Not only must the company relate constructively to customers, suppliers and dealers, it must also relate to a large number of interested publics. A public is any group that has an actual or potential interest in or impact on a company's ability to achieve its objectives. PR involves a variety of programs designed to promote or protect a company's image or its individual products
LUX PR Activities
Press relations:
Lux has been maintaining constant communicating with its customers and potential customers, of the various developments taking place in the brand by using press relations.
Lux celebrated 75 years of existence in a grand way by unveiling Shahrukh Khan as their latest brand ambassador. Kareena Kapoor, Juhi Chawla, Sridevi and Hema Malini graced the event and made it special. All the stars have endorsed Lux in the past. The event was held at the grand Intercontinental in Mumbai.
Limited edition:
Coming up with limited edition of the brand is also a way of attracting attention towards the brand. It creates a buzz and a feeling of urgency to try out the product and helps in promotion of the brand. This strategy was also implemented by Lux by bringing out limited editions like Chocolate Seduction, Aromatic Glow, Festive Glow and Haute Pink.
The LUX Trade Character or Logo is present prominently on the package. A novel metallic substrate packaging showcases the ingredients, and a female model is shown on the pack. Also displayed graphically are...

I mentioned finding some of my writing from my youth in an earlier post. My mum loved this piece of writing that I had composed at school, it even won me an award in a writing competition!
Reading it now, seeing my views on marriage at the tender age of 14 was quite funny! No, this is not a biographical retelling of my own wedding morning, but it was different in so many respects when it actually did happen, but oh, so similar too!
I hope you enjoy!
It was five o'clock this morning, when I woke up. I couldn't believe that today was THE DAY. I got up and was greeted by the grinning faces of all my sisters and parents. Everything had been a dream up until now, but, it was all finally happening.
I was pushed into the bathroom as everyone told me that today I would need the most time to get ready. I spent half an hour trying to scrub the oily turmeric putty that had been applied all over my arms, legs and face so liberally the night before. Incredible that I managed to sleep with all of that greasy 'muck' on last night, but then, that's what tradition dictates, so how could I argue? The next step, washing all the oil from my hair, also applied last night, some type of blessing. I didn't mind the blessing, but the ceremonial oil, I could have done without! It really doesn't help when you have overenthusiastic sisters and cousins who go through the ritual, just to make you look a mess!
Finally scrubbed clean, I went downstairs to have my breakfast, having been told that I 'need to keep up my strength today'. Downstairs, everyone was busy, some drinking tea, some ironing their clothes, with extra care. Mine, of course, had all been done the previous night, the privilege of being someone in my situation! It was quite funny to see the whole house turned completely haywire, and all because of me, while I sat, eating toast and watching everything with much amusement!
Soon, the group of overexcited women and girls grabbed me, dragging me back up to my, while I was still trying my hardest to finish the most important meal of the day! Everyone seemed much more excited than me, rushing to and fro, trying to get ready, while watching me as well. I started to get nervous so my cousin ushered everyone out of my room, with the strictest of instructions that no one was to disturb me now.
She brought my makeup, toiletries and 'The Outfit'. Then I was sat down and she started to comb my hair. Slowly the frizzy mane was tamed and became a neat pleat which was not going to be seen by anyone today (not until much later!) Next was my makeup. Basic makeup, light, but emphasising my eyes and mouth. Then came the tricky part, the 'bindis' across my forehead. Bright pink, green and white was used to create an elaborate, elegant pattern above my eyebrows.
The following stage to getting ready was putting on all of the jewellery. I had a gold set, consisting of a necklace and earrings. This was put on, feeling so much heavier than the costume jewellery that I usually wore. Then the traditional 'tikka, hanging down the middle of my forehead. So special, it was passed to me from my mother who had worn it at the same juncture in her life. The next adornment was very uncomfortable, the nose ring, connected to a chain which hooked just about my ear. Then I had two bracelets with five fine chains attached. At the end of each chain was a ring to go on my fingers and thumbs. I was already wearing the most important element of jewellery, the set of bangles, my 'chura', put on me last night by my maternal uncles.
Now, finally it was time to dress. I had always dreamed of wearing this outfit. I pulled on the bright pink top, and the long, swinging skirt, its hem reaching my henna pained feet. The skirt had beautiful gold embroidery on it, whereas the top was completely plain. My cousin then proceeded to arrange my 'dupatta', my scarf, on my head. Low enough to cover my face, but high enough so I could be seen respectfully.
I then slipped the pink shoes with matching gold embroidery on. Traditional shoes always complimented a traditional outfit, rather than gold heels. I looked in the mirror and a completely different person looked back. Surely that couldn't be me!
Everyone was knocking on the door now, wanting to see me, so my cousin slowly opened the door to gasps of wonder and compliments.
By this time it was eight o'clock in the morning. Three hours had passed since I had woken up, and it was still just the beginning of the day. We were hurried into the car as we had to leave now if we were to get there on time. I had begun to shake now, so my cousin, who sat next to me, held my hand. She admired the elaborate henna patterns on the palms and backs of my hands. A deep, almost black maroon/red colour which had taken the whole night to achieve.
The car slowed. We were finally there. I didn't want to get out of the car, but I had no choice really. I walked in and was taken to a small room, with several chairs, a sofa and table in it. Tea and some samosas were brought for me, and my cousins and sisters who were with me. I was told to stay here until I was called, and it was time.
We sat, the girls giggling to each other, and other members of my family passed in and out of the room, blessing me, telling me how lovely I looked, and giving me kind words of encouragement. I was given another cup of tea 'to keep my strength up' but I was totally unable to drink it.
My brother walked in, looking so smart. When did he get so big? This signalled it was 'time'. I got up, and my brother took hold of my arm. All of my girlie entourage came behind us. We walked up the stairs and soon entered the crowded room, after removing our shoes. All eyes were upon us as we walked down the middle of the room. Closer and closer I got to the holy book. Finally I was there. There was no going back now as I knelt, and paid my respects to the Guru Granth Sahib by bowing my head and touching my forehead to the floor, 'matha tek'. I sat down at the front, and slowly turned my head.
This is it – sitting next to the man who is about to become my husband. He turns his head and smiles. Is he as bewildered as me? I look back at the holy book, and smile to myself. This is truly the beginning of my new life – as a married woman.

Marguerite and Chris – "We just wanted to say thank you so, so, so much for all your hard work last week. We really appreciated the time you took to make sure you got every last little picture before you left, which can't have been easy at that point, and also your efforts at getting down to Inchydoney before the church. The slideshow was also a big hit and everyone was raving about it, and as you probably guessed from my sisters dancing on song 2 it really got the party going. It's made us very excited to see the rest of your work!
Just all in all thank you so much. We are really happy that we chose you to work with."
I'm so delighted that the rain didn't dampen the fun of the day. What a blast! Love, David

Giraffe Coloring Pages
Giraffes are the tallest mammals in the world, which probably explains why kids are generally fascinated by them. That fascination will be on full display when they print out our giraffe coloring pages, which depict these elegant, long-necked creatures in their natural element. Kids will learn a little about those environs when they complete these coloring and connect-the-dot pages. Or they can follow step-by-step instructions that teach how to draw a giraffe from scratch.

I recently spoke in Oklahoma City to a variety of law enforcement and first responders from around Oklahoma. Putnam City Baptist Church was kind enough to host the event and we took advantage of their hospitality by packing the sanctuary. I wish more churches followed their example and got hands-on with their communities on a regular basis. Kudos to Putnam City Baptist Church.
In attendance, in addition to the many law enforcement officers and other first responders, were their Chaplains, more than a few of whom approached me privately during the breaks and after the talk to say how much they appreciated and had needed to hear my message. Too often people put their heads in the sand from the hard questions of faith, yet these are the very questions left unanswered that can haunt chaplains and other caregivers who minister to those stepping foot into hell on a daily basis.
Tough Questions
They hear the toughest questions:
Where is God when a child is burned to death? Was this part of some "plan"?
Where is God when a family on the way to church dies in an auto accident? Did God answer their prayers?
What is the meaning of a child raised by drug addicts who is starved to death after living an entire life filled with misery?
And on they can go. Regardless of well rehearsed answers and reasoning to tough questions, year after year of facing these horrors can leave even Chaplains feeling like their comfort and guidance rings hollow. It is a hollowness and despair that eats away at one's soul.
You Are Not Alone!
What was it I said in my talk that the Chaplains struggling with their own faith and doubts responded to?
Something simple, yet powerful: You are not alone!
Even in your pain, never forget that we all suffer, even the one who came to take away our eternal suffering.
"My God, my god, why hast thou forsaken me?" Matthew 27:46
Pain isolates us, but it is in our pain that we have the opportunity to share the most personal of connections with one another. In pain, life becomes very simple and we focus on the questions that really matter – What is the purpose of life? What is the meaning of my life? Where am I going and where will it end? Do I have something to live for, or is it all meaninglessness?
Here in the dark, you are not alone. Breathe and be still, you are almost in communion with a fuel that makes life rage with purpose and intensity.
Wake up!
Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!
Revise your priorities, simplify, help another, allow yourself to become vulnerable and take ownership of the fact that you were never really alone, asleep maybe, but never alone. Look around you, so many muddling through life, hiding their despair. They need you! Be an example of one who rises from their slumber and begins to live with deep meaning and purpose.
As you look through the darkness what do you see? What things become clear to you — family, a lover, a journey, forgiveness and making amens, opening scripture or stepping into a temple of faith? Focus on this image and follow what draws you without distraction. Let it lead you to a brighter light and constantly remind yourself that we make this life matter one decision at a time.
Even the strongest of us can be overcome by feelings of hopelessness and despair. Even the most grounded can feel like they are failing. Never forget to care for the caregivers and remind them that they are not alone, and if they ever doubt, get burned out, or just plain despair, you will walk with them to the other side.
We Find Life in Humility
Be the caregiver and embrace the broken among us. Focus like a laser and become the kind of person where an illumined spirit can overcome the darkest of circumstances. I'll leave you with a hard verse to follow, but one that leads to freedom over the demons of life. Humble yourself in your pain and be free.
Blessed are the poor in spirit,
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn,
For they shall be comforted.
Blessed are the meek,
For they shall inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
For they shall be filled.
Blessed are the merciful,
For they shall obtain mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart,
For they shall see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers,
For they shall be called sons of God.
Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake,
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven
Matthew 5:3-10

Make-A-Wish Northern Alberta
Together, we create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses.
If you could make a wish, what would it be? At Make-A-Wish we believe wishes change the odds for kids fighting critical illnesses. Wishes help children look past their limitations, improve their quality of life and give them a better chance of recovery. Wishes renew optimism and resilience, and offer families a break from one of the most difficult trials of their lives. A wish can change everything.
Along with the national office, eight regional chapters grant life-changing wishes to children in need from coast-to-coast. Make-A-Wish Canada is an affiliate of Make-A-Wish® International, the largest wish-granting organization in the world, making dreams and wishes come true for more than 415,000 children since 1980. Make-A-Wish Northern Alberta granted 110 wishes in 2017, and continues to pursue our vision of granting the wish of every eligible child.

Just how big is your home loan?
Does your car go real fast?
How much stuff do you now own?
Is your fortune vast?
Does your sickness record shine?
Do you always work?
When the boss cries overtime
do you never shirk?
Will your balance in the bank
grow and grow each day?
Do you horde it greedily
when it's time for pay?
Do you ever take the time
to simply sit and think
or take a walk with family
or share a long slow drink
The more you earn, the more you buy,
the more you have to labour
The spiral spirals endlessly
with no time left to savour
all the simple little things
which can make each day better
just watching birds as they take wing
no email, try a letter!
When brewing tea just stop and breathe
and relish every second,
warm the pot, use real leaves
your stress will surely lessen
Those gone before
on their headstones
would not request to state
"I wish I'd earned a little more,
spent more nights working late"
No, they would urge you every day
to live your life much slower
Spend time with loved ones,
learn to play,
and savour every hour.
© Simon West 2011

Note: CogDogBlog has a new WordPress powered home at http://cogdogblog.com/. All entries from this version have been moved there, so as a guide dog service try finding this article in its new home by title search.
Two years, a year ago, it was noteworthy when feedless-sites were worth announcing they had added an RSS feed. Is it really newsworthy anymore? There is some sort of tipping point at work here, just curious if the threshold has been lost.
It takes me back 10, 11, 12 years ago when the first web sites were popping up. Every (almost) new site was nesworthy in its presence, announced in the NCSA Mosaic What's New Page. I recall combing through my multimedia magazines, noting the first companies that had a URL in their ads. I was collecting them like mad in manually edited collections. There was no Google, no Internet Explorer, not even a Yahoo (well maybe a baby Yahoo). It was a trickle, then a steady rain, than a constant flow, then it is just part of the scenery.
Will the same happen to RSS? Will its absence be more noteworthy for an organization than its presence? Is it still mildly geeky to use? Has it arrived? is arriving? will not arrive?

Fertilizer Project in Malaysia
Acquisition of Shares in Malaysia's Leading Fertilizer Distributor
|Fertilizers handled by Agromate
ITOCHU acquired shares of Agromate Holdings, one of the largest fertilizer distributors in Malaysia. Agromate has a total of nine distribution centers, seven in Malaysia and two in Indonesia. The company handles 1.3 million tons of fertilizer annually and is one of the largest fertilizer distributors in Malaysia as well as one of the largest in Asia. The company also owns a manufacturing company in the state of Sabah, Malaysia, which has a manufacturing capacity of 200,000 tons of nitrogen-phosphorous-kalium (NPK) compound fertilizers per year.
Asian demand for fertilizer is expected to expand, particularly in China and India. Over the medium to long term, supplies of fertilizer resources are expected to grow tighter, as demand for food rises in tandem with global population increases.
Through its new investment in the fertilizer resources sector, we aim to work with Agromate to strengthen its sales structure centered on Asia, thereby contributing to stable food supplies.

Testing the implementation with a Raspberry Pi 2 showed that under some circumstances its SPI master erroneously releases the CS line before the transfer is complete, i.e. before the end of the last clock. In this case the TPM ignores the transfer and misses for example the GO command. The driver is unable to detect this communication problem and will wait for a command response that is never going to arrive, timing out eventually. As a workaround, the small delay ensures that the CS line is held long enough, even with a faulty SPI master. Other SPI masters are not affected, except for a negligible performance penalty.

EQuivocate is a great piece of technology to use when you are changing a song to sound more like other songs that are in the same genre or even in the same field as the other songs that are on the album. This particular EQ is great for many reasons, including the fact that it is also free at times and can change the sound of a song to meet your particular needs. The technology matches the song that needs the change and creates a fuller more similar sound.
Key Takeaways:
- Matching EQ mode in EQuivocate compares sidechain signal to the source and produces a frequency curve to match differences
- EQuivocate is also useful to filter out specific noises found in electric guitar signals
- Costing $99, EQuivocate is a new plugin developed by Newfangled Audio and available now
"With this mode we can quickly bring a song with a drastically different EQ to a closer starting point with the rest of the songs on the album."

A Swiss spell with Basel was vital in helping Mohamed Elneny quickly adapt to life in the English Premier League after sealing a dream move to Arsenal, the Egyptian midfielder said on Wednesday.
Elneny spent three years at Basel before joining Arsenal last January in one of the most high-profile moves for any Egyptian footballer, having reaped the rewards of some solid and consistent displays with the Swiss champions.
A product of the youth academy of Cairo giants Ahly who made his name with fellow Egyptian club Arab Contractors, Elneny believes a move straight to the Premier League from Egypt might have had an adverse effect.
"It would have been very hard to move from Egypt to England straight away, especially to a big club like Arsenal. My time in Switzerland helped me a lot though," he told Arsenal Player.
"You have to change your mentality [when you move countries] to think like successful people. This is the mentality I have always wanted to achieve in my life.
"I learned how to be punctual. Of course in Egypt we are [punctual], but there are small details we don't pay attention to which people outside Egypt do pay attention to.
"Also, I learned a lot about how to play in Europe and in the Champions League. I did all of this in Switzerland and then over here, it's just a case of applying what I learned."
Elneny seemed to have avoided the fate of some Egyptian footballers who made a straight move to the elite Premier League, with Ibrahim Said failing to play a single game with Everton following a transfer from Ahly in 2003 and Amr Zaki suffering a stunning decline in form at Wigan Athletic after making an impressive start in 2008.
The 23-year-old has made 11 league appearances with Arsenal since his arrival, earning acclaim among the Gunners faithful for a series of convincing performances as they finished second behind surprise champions Leicester City.
He also scored a superb goal against Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League last 16 although Arsenal were ousted by the Catalans following a 5-1 aggregate loss.
"When I came to Arsenal, there were different ideas. If you went somewhere thinking you know everything, then you'll never learn," Elneny added.
"I gain experience and I always learn from people here because they are successful. Arsenal are one of the biggest five clubs in the world so they're definitely successful people. You have to listen to everyone here to gain their experience."
