Do you know the amount of carbohydrates in a pack of potato chips? Or the proteins present in one serving of ready-to-eat pasta. Such information will now have to be available to the consumer soon.
The Health Ministry is planning to make it compulsory for food companies to list out the nutritional value of the product on the pack. This is likely to be part of the labelling requirements for food products.
According to a senior Health Ministry official, "The Central Committee on Food Standards (CCFS) has recommended labelling of nutritional value on package of food products and the Ministry is considering the proposal. Under the Prevention of Food Adulteration (PFA) Act, a draft notification will be shortly issued seeking views from the public."
Officials said that this initiative is part of the Government's decision to align the Indian norms with global standards.
"Internationally, it is mandatory for food companies to list out the nutritional values and we want to introduce the same here. This will also improve consumer safety and they would be able to make an informed choice."
The Health Ministry had about two years ago made it mandatory for food companies to have green and brown dots on packs to distinguish vegetarian products from non-vegetarian.
At present, only packages of certain food products, especially those selling on the health plank such as some kinds of biscuits, yoghurt and potato chips carry information on nutritional value. Others used this information as a marketing ploy to differentiate their brands. According to analysts tracking the sector, "Some companies that are exporting products display nutritional details on the packs. If this norm becomes mandatory, it would not be very difficult for the large Indian and multinational companies to change the packaging."
However, smaller companies may have to make some additional investments. "Also, company manufacturing high-calorie products with high levels of fats and carbohydrates like butter, ghee, ice-creams and ready-to-eat snacks may be a little reluctant," said an analyst.

Vodafone has announced the launch of the Vodafone 150, an under-$15 mobile phone designed specifically for 'developing' nations.
The phone will be available in India, Turkey, Ghana, Kenya and 6 other African nations.
I actualy like this phone...it looks like it is built very strong, should have great battery life, and should also have excelent reception. Sure, no smartphone features, text messaging, or whatever...but a good phone that will probably have better call quality than the average $400 smartphone.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Even as the economic recovery has largely taken hold and most of the alphabet soup of economic recovery programs has been wound down, it's good news that one program, the Home Affordable Refinance Program, has been extended.
Introduced in the first months of Barack Obama's presidency, and extended into 2016 last month, HARP was set up to allow homeowners who had underwater mortgages (in which the mortgage value is greater than the home's value) or owed almost as much as the value of their homes to refinance at lower rates.
More than 3.3 million Americans have now used HARP to lower their mortgage rates and to move into fixed loans from adjustable loans. But as of the end of 2014, some 604,678 American homeowners were still eligible for the program and had not yet used it, according to the Federal Housing Finance Agency Web site HARP.gov.
HARP allows homeowners with limited equity in their homes to refinance their mortgages with far more favorable terms. On paper it's a terrific program: It allows responsible homeowners to refinance at today's lower rates even if they have little equity or if their mortgage is under water. It also reduces some of the paperwork and expense required to refinance.
But it has one big check on its progress -- homeowners have to apply for it, and many thousands that are eligible, and would benefit from it, haven't. The states where home prices fell the most in the crisis are still among those with the largest number of HARP-eligible homeowners.

WWII Black Soldiers and the Alaska Highway
It was called the Crooked Road, Pioneer Road, Oil-Can Highway, Truck Trail, Tote Road, Alcan Highway, and many more names. In 1946 it was officially named the Alaska Highway.
In early 1942 the United States found itself at war with the Empire of Japan–World War II. Essential for defending North America against Japan, Alaska was remote and vulnerable. A land route to that outpost was suddenly essential.
Under orders to build that route and do it quickly, the Army Corps of Engineers sent seven regiments, four white and three black to Alaska and Northern Canada to build a rough draft of the Alcan.
The regiments and their support units jammed sea lanes, ports and railroads. They conquered permafrost, muskeg, and mud. From spring to fall temperatures ranged from 60 below to 90 above. The soldiers survived in tents. Mosquitoes, gnats and no-see-ums plagued them. They suffered from serum hepatitis, food shortages, broken bones and frostbite. And they worked around the clock.
They bridged rivers–some small, some really big. They installed culverts and corduroyed muskeg. They crossed massive mountain ranges from Dawson Creek, British Columbia to Delta, Alaska–1500 miles. And to their everlasting glory, they did it in just 8 months.

The rise of social media has brought many changes in the way our society views and consumes news and entertainment and in the way people connect with others. But has social media itself brought about the ability to act on social issues and create change? Many would phenomena such as Twitter activism and social media revolutions confirm the societal benefits of social media. But there are also societal benefits to social media use on the level of individuals.
Let's Heal, an independent non-profit organization located in Amsterdam, recently conducted a survey of 24,000 consumers from 16 different countries and found that people engaged in social media are more likely to be helpful to others both online and offline. This prosocial tendency—helping other by doing good—also extended to consumers' spending habits and professional lives. As compared to those less engaged in social media, savvy social media users preferred purchasing products from prosocial brands and preferred working for prosocial companies.
Although this study found a relationship between prosocial tendencies and social media use, it is not clear whether social media makes people "nicer" or if "nicer" people are more likely to be savvy social media users. Regardless, online social media platforms provide a unique opportunity for individuals to connect and help each other.
Wish Upon A Hero, an online platform founded in 2007, creates such opportunities. This social platform allows users to post or grant wishes and uses crowdsourcing to determine which wishes should come true. Anyone can browse through the wishes posted on Wish Upon A Hero, each of which is classified as a "need" or "want." And anyone—an individual, organization, or company—can be a wish granter, choosing to either help anonymously or be credited for their contribution.
Since 2007, more than 78,000 wishes have been granted. And Wish Upon a Hero has helped these wishes come true by connecting people in need with others who can help. The platform is supported by a non-profit foundation under the same name that helps promote such connections and also grants wishes by providing services, scholarships and grants. To learn more about Wish Upon A Hero visit their website or Mashable.
With social media platforms dedicated to helping individuals, groups and charities, as well as individuals choosing to help others on their own through their social media use, it seems the societal and social benefits of social media are only beginning to emerge.
In the wake of natural disasters and political revolutions, social media has played its part. Do you think social media helping platforms will be able to have an actual impact? How can brands and organizations use such platforms in their community and consumer relations efforts? And does using social media actually make us nicer?

House arrest for 14-year-old Dublin boy accused of stabbing another youth
A 14-YEAR-OLD Dublin boy accused of stabbing a youth has been placed under house-arrest after a court heard juvenile detention centres were full.
At the Dublin Children's Court Judge John O'Connor said the teenager had reached the threshold for having bail revoked but that could not be done because there was nowhere to hold the boy.
The judge also said he was concerned about evidence of witness intimidation and the seriousness of the offence.
The teenager, who was accompanied to court his father, was granted bail but told he will be under "house arrest". The judge said the boy "looks as innocent as pie" but was out-of-control. He will not be able to leave his home except for going to school and must be accompanied by an adult relative, the court ordered. The case resumes next week.
The boy has been charged with assault causing harm in connection with an alleged stabbing of a youth in Tallaght on a date in January. He has been further charged with criminal damage using paint during an incident on a Luas tram five weeks later.
Garda Kieran Kilcoyne objected to bail citing fears the teenager would continue to engage in witness intimidation. Concerns were also expressed that the boy would use social media.
Gda Kilcoyne said CCTV footage from the Luas showed the boy: "with a gang of lads".
"He comes down sits on a block of seats and takes out an object, a tin of paint, hands it to another male, puts on his hat and gloves, takes it back, walks towards the young lad, who is the injured party."
Gda Kilcoyne said the teenager threw paint on the youth and then picked up the can and "pegged it at him". The incident happened in front of an elderly couple and numerous witness statements have been taken.
Gda Kilcoyne said that the youth was terrified and in a state of panic. He also said there was no control over the boy. The boy whispered to his barrister, which transpired to be a claim he has apologised to the youth.
The youth's parents were outraged by the incidents said Gda Kilcoyne.
Judge O'Connor told the garda: "there is nothing you can do or I can do, there are no places". He also warned the boy that this would not always be the case and the youngster was told he must adhere to the bail conditions.
The teen's father pledged he and his family would control the teenager who has not yet indicated how he will plead to the charges.

Interview with Glassblower Karl Termini of Termini Tubes
Karl Termini of Termini Tubes (pronounced like "Germany" but with a 'T') is an internationally known glassblower who currently works out of Ithaca NY. Karl's story is particularly interesting because he has truly come up on his own curiosity, experimentation, ingenuity, and drive for success. Not only does he make stunning glass art that is prized for is craftsmanship and functionality, but he is a major part of nurturing the borosilicate glassblowing movement.
Unlike most pipe artists Karl did not learn to blow glass under a specific mentor or within a coterie glassblowers. Karl started experimenting with glass on his own at home in New Jersey around 1998. Originally he was simply looking to explore and understand how a substance like borosilicate glass could be fashioned into beautiful pieces of functional art. His interests led Karl to living in the Netherlands in 2004, and is was there that he found himself quite alone in this developing field. However, for Karl this really helped shape his direction as a leader in both the artistic and business sides of pipe making.
Termini Tubes is renowned for their pipes that are complex in function, while also being very clean and scientific looking. Each piece is handmade by Karl himself, who takes exquisite pride in the consistency of his work. But it is not just the work himself that Karl concerns himself with. Much of Karl's success, and what he is so well know for alongside the glass itself, is his dedication to his customers and the boro glass community. He has spent his entire career sharing experience and exploring ideas with other glassblowers and anyone interested in the industry and craft, and it certainly has not failed him yet. As his own studio in Holland developed and progressed it was Karl's willingness to teach people from all around the globe how to work with borosilicate glass has played a big role in catalyzing him and his art to being known worldwide.
Karl continues to encourages anyone interested to reach out and connect with him. Beyond just a deep commitment to always being there for his customers, Karl is committed to supporting the pipe-making community itself. You can find his work and ways to connect with him right at www.terminitubes.com. You can also now check out pipes by Karl Termini right in our Boston and Rhode Island galleries. And for some real insight into Karl's journey through glassblowing listen to the podcast interview right here.

Featured Wall-Art by Matt Macaluso
Matt Macaluso is a mix-media artists working out of Brockton, MA. His art can be intriguing and trippy yet at the same time mathematical. Furthermore, in the perfect twist of things, Matt got his start in graphic art as a musician. It was in high-school when Matt started designing t-shrits and album art for the band he was in, and realized that he had a genuine interest in art itself.
"My favorite cartoon is south park. My favorite place in the entire world is Russell Pond, NH. I enjoy a fresh/strong/good margarita and I have never seen clear blue warm ocean water."
At first glance Matt's work is an intense collage of colors and line-art. But as he explains, most of Matt's current pieces are mapping exercises of trails, state parks, and other hiking experiences. This understanding instantly gives great visceral feeling to his art.
When you look at one of Matt's pieces you can actually feel not just the environment he was in, but the scent and sound of the forest itself.
Much of Matt Macaluso's work starts as a rubbing created while he is on the hike itself; which makes each piece incredibly unique. This rubbings are then "destroyed" into a new "gatherings of ideas and thoughts."
Where does all this intrigue come from? Matt studied formally at the Burren School of Art in Ireland, and at Boston's own Northeastern University. You can find his art on Tumblr, Instagram, and in Green Side Up Gallery Boston.
Interview with Glassblower Bishop Randall
Bishop Randall is known for his unique style of glassblowing which features soft stone and earthen colors, human faces and figures, and intricate carved-in designs. Each pipe Bishop creates tells a story connecting the past present and future. He draws from archetypal mythology and spirituality to make his pipes much more than a simple piece of art or tool for smoking, but actual connections to our history and deeper existence.
For the past twelve years Bishop has been blowing glass in California and currently resides in Grass Valley, nestled in the Sierra Nevada mountain range. He was always very interested in glass, and first got introduced to glassblowing when he met Marcel Braun in LA. Bishop then traveled to Washington state for an intensive course where Marcel and Scott Deppe were blowing glass. From there he quickly realized that he could actually blow glass for work, and has been developing his craft ever since.
Bishop often signs his pieces through a process called sandcarving. This allows for very precise yet organic looking reliefs to be etched into the glass. He also uses this process to set designs such as a sacred geometry flower of life into his glass pipes. These create a fantastic artistic representation showing our current state of duality.
When you look at Bishop's pieces you will understand how he sees art as a tool of expression itself. Spirituality, mythology, and even his pallet play into the glass. Bishop has a great love of simple Japanese cuisine, and you can see the depth of miso's taste in his figures, and the color patterns of a sea urchin's shell in his pipes. We have a great deal of Bishop's work here; take time with each pipe and appreciate the deeper undertones and connections through Bishop's expression

Summer-like conditions continue, unsettled weather returns
After a typical August day with temperatures running near normal, the seasonal conditions will continue into the work week. Here were the high temperatures today.
It will be clear and quiet this evening with patchy fog possible by morning. Temperature will fall into the low 60s. Watch out for the kids at the bus stop tomorrow morning, as many kids will be heading back to school.
Monday will be warm and summer-like with temperatures climb back into the low 80s. A little bit more humidity will arrive too, although it won't feel oppressive.
A cold front will arrive on Tuesday. The timing is still a bit up in the air but it will bring a chance of scattered showers and storms. Depending on the arrival of the front, temperatures could still climb into the low 80s.
The front could stall to the south and keep a chance of showers and thunderstorms in the forecast on Wednesday.
The Model Guidance for the rest of the week has really been inconsistent. Right now, heavy rain and thunderstorms are possible on Friday. We will continue to tweak the forecast as the data starts handling the storm systems a bit better.

Picture: Chris Jericho the Wrestler appears on ABC's 'Good Morning America' t New York City, USA - 22.06.10
Low ratings and high production costs have pushed NBC's Tonight show with Jay Leno into the red, the New York Post reported today (Friday), citing unnamed insiders. "Leno May Be Next," the newspaper said in a headline, suggeSting that Comcast may replace Leno once it gains control of NBC Universal later this year. "You can't figure they're happy about this," said the newspaper's source. Ratings for Tonight have fallen below those that Conan O'Brien garnered when he hosted last year. Moreover, the network is shelling out considerably more money for Leno than it did for O'Brien -- $30 million per year vs. O'Brien's $15 million, according to the newspaper, plus the cost of a bigger production staff. What's more, the Tonight show, whose audience is down 20 percent since Leno left the show a year ago, has been overtaken in the ratings by the ABC newsmagazine Nightline at 11 30 p.m., and Tonight's ratings appear to have only one way to go once O'Brien enters the late-night fray in the fall. Meanwhile, David Letterman's ratings remain virtually flat with last year, which, commented the website TVbytheNumbers.com, "is pretty good in the broadcast television world where 'flat is the new up.'" Letterman's network, CBS, boasted in a news release on Thursday that Letterman's Late Show "delivered its most competitive second quarter against The Tonight Show in viewers and key demographics since 1995.

Zuma Sworn In as South Africa's President
November 02, 2009 8:44 AM
Delia Robertson
Jacob Zuma, the controversial leader of the African National Congress, has been sworn in as the fourth post-apartheid president of South Africa.
Jacob Zuma was sworn in twenty minutes later than scheduled at 11:20 AM local time, by Chief Justice Pius Langa, promising to faithfully execute the duties of high office and uphold the law.
"I Jacob Gedleyihlekisa Zuma swear that I will be faithful to the Republic of South Africa, and will obey, observe and uphold and maintain the constitution and all other law of the republic," he said.
Mr. Zuma was then proclaimed president by Justice Langa to the approval of his official praise singer and the applause of the five thousand invited guests.
Thousands of South Africans watched the inauguration from the lawns of Union Buildings in Pretoria. Among the invited guests were former presidents Nelson Mandela and Thabo Mbeki, two kings, twenty seven other heads of state and government.
Mr. Zuma comes from a humble background, the son of a domestic worker who did not have the benefit of a formal education.
His road to the high office has been marked by controversy, notably a string of corruption, fraud and racketeering charges dropped on technical grounds two weeks before his election.
Mr. Zuma was fired in 2005 by then President Mbeki following the conviction of his financial advisor on corruption charges in which Mr. Zuma was implicated by the court. He subsequently fought a dogged battle to win control of the ANC and ultimately the country.
As expected, Mr. Zuma linked his presidency to that of Mr. Mandela. He reached back to Mr. Mandela's inaugural address to renew Mr Mandela's promise to build a society free of discrimination, exploitation, want and disease.
"We gather here determined that the struggles and sacrifices of our people over many decades shall not be in vain. Instead, they shall inspire us to complete the task for which so much blood was shed, and so much hardship endured. This is a moment of renewal," he said.
Further casting his leadership in the mold of Mr Mandela, Mr. Zuma stressed the importance of reconciling South Africans and reached out to the man he knows as Zizi - his one-time close friend who is now widely seen as his adversary - former President Thabo Mbeki.
"He made a remarkable contribution towards strengthening our democracy, and laid a firm foundation for economic growth and development. He made our country an integral part of the continent and worked tirelessly for an African rebirth. Through his leadership, South Africa's stature grew in the continent and globally," he said.
Mr. Zuma promised he and his government will work unremittingly to address all the issues of greatest concerns to South Africans.
"For as long as there are South Africans who die from preventable disease; workers who struggle to feed their families; communities without clean water, decent shelter or proper sanitation; rural dwellers unable to make a decent living from the land on which they live; women who are subjected to discrimination, exploitation or abuse; children who do not have the means nor the opportunity to receive a decent education; people who are unable to find work, we shall not rest, and we dare not falter," he said.
Like his campaign speeches these promises are likely to contribute to already very high expectations among South Africans, particularly the 40 percent of the population who survive on less than $2 a day.
Mr. Zuma, and the members of his Cabinet whom he will name on Sunday, will very quickly have to tell South Africans how they plan to meet those promises; and how they, in the current global economic climate, intend to pay for them.

Posted on 7 February 2006
- 12:00
I THOUGHT IT was a terrific afternoon for us on Sunday and we needed it after the last couple of weeks. I wouldn't say it was a really bad spell, but we couldn't score a goal.
Liverpool didn't give us a lot of chances, while against Aston Villa we did well and should have scored but it wasn't to be. Fulham was also disappointing and the supporters know we had four or five players out and had some problems in the first half.
We again had some problems in the first half against Charlton, Aaron Lennon did well and looks a threat but we had to take him off at half-time, having already lost Teemu Tainio after 20 minutes. We sold some players who were not getting a game as you have to make space for the younger players - this provided an opportunity for Tom Huddlestone.
Johnnie Jackson came in and he hadn't played for us for 16 months. It was a young team and a young bench and it is always something to be proud of - in hindsight, once you have won.
I thought we could have done better, but I enjoyed watching Robbie Keane and Jermain Defoe, with the midfield also doing well. We didn't give away much at the back, but we didn't give away much at Fulham either.
Fulham caused Manchester United more problems with a couple of crosses that led to goals, while we lost out to a set piece. We have to learn to be more ambitious sometimes in away games and have to score goals. When everybody is not available I still feel we lack a little bit of a winning mentality and that is why we bought in the likes of Edgar Davids.
It was pleasing that the players who came in on Sunday did well - Huddlestone, Stephen Kelly - who had to play on the left again - and Jackson.
Robbie and Jermain did very well as a partnership in attack and I have explained my position many times. I have a simple philosophy, if they play together many times and they don't score many goals, it is sometimes easier for a smaller more tricky striker to have a bigger man alongside him like last season with Fredi Kanoute and this with Mido.
They are not 100 per cent in holding up the ball because that is not their game. I think on Sunday they did well, they attacked the space and stretched the other team. They worked the defence and that is what you need.
I said if you asked Sven Goran Eriksson - not that I have - would he play Jermain alongside Michael Owen, he would say no. But neccessity is the mother of all inventions and I thought, as I did against Aston Villa, that the two of them together maybe inspired each other and I think it worked.
For me it is a great thing because, before then, it didn't really work. If it works I am a happy man.

French Onion Soup - Alton Brown
Recipe by DrGaellon
Alton Brown's recipe, from the episode "A Bowl Full of Onion"
Top Review by ejmatl
i don't know why i didn't rate this before - maybe because I made many changes (used as much fresh as possible, including spices, etc.) this is just wonderful!!! all in all, i think the reason why there are so many onions is because the idea is for the onions to be slices exceptionally thin - "go out and buy new knives" (which i did) thin. and, of course, we have to pay attention to the fact there is a loaf of bread involved - and it must be *toppest* quality (get those kneading gloves on). I throw so many mushrooms into the mix i'm surprised i can fit anything else - but i do - and even augment the published main increment to cover. this is the most annoying soup i make - but i make it often. thank you so much for publishing it!!!

Ingredients Nutrition
- 10 sweet onions (like Vidalias) or 10 a combination of sweet and red onions
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups white wine
- 10 ounces canned beef consomme
- 10 ounces chicken broth
- 10 ounces apple cider (unfiltered is best)
- bouquet garni, thyme sprigs, bay leaf and parsley
- 1 loaf country bread
- kosher salt
- ground black pepper
- 1 dash cognac (optional)
- 1 cup fontina or 1 cup gruyere cheese, grated
Directions See How It's Made
- Trim the ends off each onion then slice from end to end. Remove peel and finely slice into half moon shapes. Set electric skillet to 300 degrees and add butter. Once butter has melted add a layer of onions and sprinkle with a little salt. Repeat layering onions and salt until all onions are in the skillet. Do not try stirring until onions have sweated down for 15 to 20 minutes. After that, stir occasionally until onions are dark mahogany and reduced to approximately 2 cups. This should take 45 minutes to 1 hour. Do not worry about burning.
- Add enough wine to cover the onions and turn heat to high, reducing the wine to a syrup consistency. Add consume, chicken broth, apple cider and bouquet garni. Reduce heat and simmer 15 to 20 minutes.
- Place oven rack in top 1/3 of oven and heat broiler.
- Cut country bread in rounds large enough to fit mouth of oven safe soup crocks. Place the slices on a baking sheet and place under broiler for 1 minute.
- Season soup mixture with salt, pepper and cognac. Ladle soup into crocks leaving one inch to the lip. Place bread round, toasted side down, on top of soup and top with grated cheese. Broil until cheese is bubbly and golden, 1 to 2 minutes.

With most businesses now reliant on information technology, it's no surprise that they want reliable systems.
Good IT support can make all the difference, however many businesses struggle to find adequate support.
Repeated failures, slow performance, bugs that aren't ironed out – the list of grievances is long. Most businesses have their favourite horror story – hardware or software that's so unreliable it's unusable, repeated blame shifting when they want accountability, and so on.
Many wonder how it can be so hard. Here are a few reasons why your IT support might be falling short.
Your provider is too big
Perhaps hoping that the price tag will match the level of support, some SMEs turn to corporate- and enterprise-level providers.
There's nothing to prevent this from working out. In practice though, many SMEs find that their justifiably high expectations aren't fulfilled.
The problem is typically that the big providers are geared for the big end: their services aren't necessarily the right fit for SMEs. But they don't take the time to adapt their systems because SMEs are too small a number on their accounts sheet.
Your provider is too small
Many sole and small operators deliver great IT support.What tends to happen when they do, however, is that word spreads. They expand. And with more clients on their books, their resources become stretched. The skilled principal behind the operation needs help, but he or she can't always afford to hire someone as good as they are, and standards slip.
Your team has a fixed vision
Internal IT people and teams do have advantages – they're usually close on-hand and they're familiar with your business, and when something goes wrong their knowledge of your systems helps them to fix things.
The downside, however, is that your business ends up with a "single party" vision: systems and processes designed by one person – systems which function well when that person is around to maintain and guide them, but which cause all kinds of trouble when that person leaves. It's a state of affairs we're seeing more often. It's great while the expert is around, but reliability suffers once they're gone.
What to look for when you look for support
The reality is that IT support is a service game. When choosing a provider, their relationships with software and hardware vendors and manufacturers are important, as is the quality and skills of their support and engineering teams. But unless the provider has a true service focus, you won't see the reliable systems and support you require.
When searching for a provider, make sure that your candidates have well-rehearsed processes for responding to and fixing problems. Frameworks exist that can play a role here, including the widely recognised ITIL standards.
It can be a case of "you pay for what you get" but not always. When it comes to features, if a provider says that they offer 24/7 support, be sure to question what that means – will there be engineers on-hand, for example, or is it just a glorified messaging service?
Also make sure that you're signing on to a proactive service. Waiting for a system to break or grind to a halt is almost without exception the most expensive time to solve its problems. Any provider worth its salt knows this, and their support will be as much about watching for and averting potential issues as it is about responding to immediate trouble.

A muscle daddy and his boy, in a bareback fuck, and suck session.
The smooth lad gets a good mouth, and ass stretching, from daddy's big, stiff dick, taking as much of it as he can; gagging on it at times, and spreading his ass cheeks wide, allowing it to go deep into his fuckhole!
In the end, daddy is pounding hard, and pulls out; cumming all over the well-fucked hole, just as the boy releases his own creamy load!

The longest 10 seconds at the Liberty Mutual Legends of Golf don't immediately precede the first drive or the last putt.
They are not even endured by a Champions Tour professional.
They come long before any shots that count are struck, when the participants in the Legends Pro-Am find out who they'll be playing with for the next two days.
Every year at Savannah's biggest sporting event, amateurs take their games inside the ropes, in front of galleries and alongside some of the biggest names in professional golf for 36 holes over two days.
They subject their swings to scrutiny and their psyches to the opinions of strangers.
Nerve-wracking? Maybe.
But the real tension comes the night before, when the guys who pay a few thousand bucks to be in that position are paired with the professionals they'll be there with.
It's a good thing plenty of booze is on hand.
At the pro-am pairings party, teams of amateurs are matched with Champions Tour players. The selections are totally random, highly scientific and wholly suspenseful for anyone who will be playing the next two days.
"I've been telling people all day, I can't wait until the pairings party to see who I'm playing with,'' said emcee Bob Murphy.
And he's one of the pros. Imagine what the guys who were waiting to see if they were paired with him felt.
Tuesday night at the Savannah International Trade and Convention Center, 45 amateur teams were fed into a computer along with 45 of the most prominent and popular players in the Legends field. And every few seconds a match popped out.
It was the time in between, when an amateur team would be announced and a match was on the way, that the excitement and anticipation climbed inside four minds at a time.
Just what does the average player do in that position?
Do you hope to get Loren Roberts, whose three wins are the most on the Champions Tour this season? Or do you want Hale Irwin, whose 44 victories are the most in the history of senior golf?
Do hope for Tom Purtzer so you can spend a day trying to burn his textbook swing into your golf memory? Or do keep your fingers crossed that you'll get Ben Crenshaw and hope that golden putting stroke of his is transferable?
Do you wish for Peter Jacobsen or Fuzzy Zoeller and expect a day full of laughs? Or do you hope to take your chances at winning with Morris Hatalsky, who has two top-10 finishes in three years at The Club at Savannah Harbor?
So many players. So many possibilities. So little control over any of it.
"It's really just an honor to play with any of these guys,'' said Peyton Grymes III, who earned his spot in the pro-am field by selling the most tickets in the Legends Ambassadors Club Fill-the-Fairways Campaign, which was designed to increase overall attendance and provide free passes for area military personnel during tournament week. "There are so many great champions and Hall of Famers here, playing with any of them would be a thrill.''
The draw worked out pretty well for Grymes, whose team was matched with defending champion Des Smyth for today's round and Champions Tour veteran Jim Colbert for Thursday.
But here's the catch. There are no bad pairings at the Legends.
All of the pros who take part in the pro-am are accomplished players who amateurs would be excited to share a round with. They'll also make the effort to make the day memorable for their partners, offering tips when possible and jokes when necessary.
Tuesday, about 30 of them showed up for the pairings party - to eat, to mingle and to meet the guys they'll be spending the next couple of days with.
That's one of the biggest perks of playing in the pro-am. And it comes along with one of the biggest thrills.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The chief of staff to U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords says the Arizona congresswoman has not yet been told the details of a Jan. 8 shooting spree in Tucson that wounded her and 12 others and killed six, including a staff member.
Pia Carusone said Wednesday on CBS's "The Early Show" that Giffords knows there was a traumatic event, but her doctors have said it would not be fair to tell her everything that happened until she can ask more detailed questions.
Giffords was shot in the head. She is undergoing rehabilitation in Houston and can have simple conversations.
Jared Loughner is charged in federal court with killing a federal judge and Giffords aide Gabriel Zimmerman and attempting to kill Giffords and two other staffers.

After designing more than 30 hull profiles, Royal Caribbean Cruises has elected to go with a hull design optimized for multiple sailing profiles, according to Harri Kulovaara, executive vice president of maritime, talking to Cruise Industry News in New York during the ship unveiling.
At 4,180 passengers, double occupancy, every efficiency has been looked at, said Kulovaara.
"Every ship generation becomes more efficient," he said, noting these ships were up to 10 to 20 percent more fuel efficient.
"There is no silver bullet, there are a number of factors that go into it, starting with how we produce the energy," Kulovaara explained.
More than 1,000 bulbous bulbs were looked at, and the one settled on yields a 1 to 2 percent fuel burn gain, he commented, backing up Richard Fain's note during a press conference earlier in the day.
He compared modern shipbuilding to Formula 1 car development, saying that most testing can be done with computational fluid dynamics on a computer.
In addition, the ships have the most advanced air conditioning system yet, and the galley will play into the energy savings game, with smarter ventilation controls depending on what is needed.
The newbuild from Meyer Werft will have LED lighting, and better energy management controls, Kulovaara explained, letting crew better monitor each component's energy usage.
Once a month he gets together with the newbuild team from Royal Caribbean to review the statis of the project, and go over fuel efficiency and energy savings items.
The Quantum-class ships will not be dual-fuel, Kulovaara said, but added that the company had looked into LNG, but it was not yet viable for cruise ships.
"It is interesting," he noted, and said Royal Caribbean is continuing to talk with class society DNV, engine manufactures and LNG suppliers for the future.
It is widely believed the new ships will also include scrubbers, but Kulovaara declined to comment, adding that he preferred to call them AEP (advanced emissions purification).

Citation Edit
Savannah College of Art & Design, Inc. v. Houeix, 369 F.Supp.2d 929 (S.D. Ohio 2004) (full-text) (bench trial); 2005 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 9022 (S.D. Ohio Apr. 22, 2005) (denying defendant's motion for attorney's fees).
Factual Background Edit
Plaintiff, the Savannah College of Art and Design ("the College"), used the mark and name SCAD for many years as an acronym for the College's full name. Defendant Houeix and his wife were professors at the College. Houeix became upset when the College fired his wife, and he resigned shortly thereafter and moved to Ohio where his wife obtained a new teaching job.
Houeix domain name registration "scad.info" and began using it for a website critical of the College. Houeix also domain name registration "scad-and-us.info" when his ISP temporarily shut down his "scad.info" site. That site contained emails he received about the College from prospective students, parents, faculty members, staff, and third parties. The majority of these emails were critical of the College.
Trial Court Proceedings Edit
The College sued Houeix for cybersquatting, trademark infringement, unfair competition, and dilution. At the College's request, the court dismissed the claim for cybersquatting on the first day of trial. Following a two-day bench trial, the court ruled in favor of Houeix on the remaining claims.
Regarding infringement, it was undisputed that the College owned the mark SCAD. And it was clear that Houeix used the domain names in commerce as courts have routinely held that providing information over the Internet constitutes use in commerce. The key issue was whether Houeix used the SCAD mark in his domain names in connection with the sale, offering for sale, distribution, or advertising of any goods or services." The College argued that Houeix satisfied this requirement because: (1) he advertised the goods and services of third parties on his website through banner ads and links to commercial websites, (2) his website was designed to harm the College commercially, and (3) his website prevented others from reaching the College's website.
Regarding the banner ads, Houeix's website was "under construction" for one month in early 2002 and contained a banner ad for Register.com, a domain-name registrar, in exchange for free web hosting services. The court agreed that the presence of Register.com's ad was a use of the SCAD mark "in connection with the advertising" of the goods sold by the advertiser.
At the time of trial, however, Houeix's website contained no advertising, sold no goods and services, and did not solicit any donations or payments. Because Houeix's site no longer contained such ads, any request for injunctive relief — the only relief sought by the College — was moot.
Houeix's website also contained links to three third-party sites, which in turn contained ads for third-party products or services or charged users to access certain information. Houeix received no compensation from any of these sites. Relying on Bosley Medical v. Kremer, the court held that this "two-step process" to reach the commercial content on the third-party sites was "too tenuous to make Houeix's sites 'commercial' within the meaning of the Lanham Act."
Nor were Houeix's websites commercial simply because they might commercially harm the College (e.g., dissuading potential students from attending or potential faculty from accepting teaching positions). The court distinguished the cases relied on by the College because Houeix's sites neither sold any products or services on the site, endorsed any particular product or service, or solicited donations for any cause (Planned Parenthood Federation v. Bucci), nor linked to a site owned by Houeix that raised funds by selling merchandise (Jews for Jesus v. Brodsky). Even if those two cases stood for the proposition that an unauthorized use of a mark that hindered the commercial success of the trademark owner or disparaged the owner was a "commercial" use, the Sixth Circuit rejected that argument in Taubman v. Webfeats when it stated that "although economic damage might be an intended effect of [the defendant's] expression, the First Amendment protects critical commentary when there is no confusion as to source, even when it involves the criticism of a business.'
The College's argument that Houeix's use of his domain names was commercial because it prevented Internet users from reaching the College's website was similarly without merit. Although the court acknowledged that registering a trademark-related domain name with an intent to profit from the mark (e.g., registering such names and offering to sell them to the trademark owners) could be a commercial use, it was not aware of any authority holding that "the mere registration of a domain name which prevents the mark's owner from registering the same domain name constitutes a commercial use of the mark."
Having failed to establish that Houeix used the SCAD mark with the sale or advertising of any goods or services, the court ruled in Houeix's favor on the College's infringement and unfair-competition claims. Even assuming Houeix could have established the necessary "commercial use," the court held that the College failed to demonstrate a likelihood of confusion required for those claims.
Although the SCAD mark was strong and Houeix admittedly used "scad" domain names with the understanding that Internet users could be confused, the other factors either favored Houeix or were neutral. In particular, although Houeix's websites did not display any "explicit" disclaimers, his home page had many features that "immediately alert[ed]" users that the College was not the source of the site. These included the prominent statement "Savannah College of Art and Design Master Fraudulent Process" and a box in the middle of the page containing announcements about this lawsuit in red bold-face print. According to the court, "A reasonable internet user would know by perusing the content of scad.info that Savannah College is not the source of the website."
Confusion was further unlikely because prospective students or faculty members searching the Internet for information about the College would easily locate the College's website. Specifically, a search for "scad" on the Yahoo! search engine returned 141,000 hits with the College's website as the first result while Houeix's websites were not in the top ten. The College noted that these Yahoo! search results prompted or suggested a search for "scad college" which in turn still revealed the College's website as the first hit but revealed Houeix's sites as the third and sixth hits. The College argued that Internet users would be confused because these results for Houeix's sites failed to clearly state that the sites were not affiliated with the College. The court rejected this argument because it was based on the "illogical assumption" that users would ignore the "scad.edu" website as the top search result.
Citing Taubman v. Webfeats, the court stated that 'a visitor who is searching for Savannah College's official website and inadvertently lands on scad.info can simply hit the 'back' button to immediately return the visitor to his or her point of origin.' And although it was possible that an Internet user searching for information on the College could type 'scad.info' into a browser, it was unlikely because of the universal use of the .edu domain by schools of higher education and the .info domain was fairly new.
The College also argued that initial-interest confusion supported a finding of likelihood of confusion. But the court noted that courts relying on initial-interest confusion have involved "situations where the defendant had a commercial or financial incentive or motive for using the plaintiff's mark to attract initial interest." The College relied on the Sixth Circuit's decision in Paccar v. Telescan Technologies in support of its position, but that case was distinguishable because the defendant in Paccar was a competitor trying to gain an unfair financial or commercial advantage.
The situation here was more like the Sixth Circuit's decision in Taubman, decided two days after Paccar, in which it rejected any initial-interest confusion that consumers experience "by viewing the domain names only" in the context of a noncommercial site. Nor was the court impressed by the College's evidence of alleged actual confusion — one confused alum, two dozen phone calls to the College, and three emails to Houeix. Even if the source of this confusion was Houeix's use of SCAD in his domain names, this "scant" evidence of confusion compared to over 260,000,000 hits for the official "scad.edu" website provided "weak support" for the College's claims.
Finally, regarding dilution, the College had to prove that Houeix's use of the SCAD mark was a commercial use in commerce, among other elements. The Lanham Act, however, expressly exempts from dilution coverage uses of trademarks that are noncommercial. Because Houeix's critical commentary of the College was a noncommercial use, the court held that College failed to establish its claim for dilution.

Alas, strawberry clock's final moments on this earth, along with his friend, Pear-Cucumber clock.
Do not look at the animation but instead how the art fits in with the music and the experimental flow of everything goes.
Well made
This one's actually well made unlike many spam that went through. The animation is a bit rough but for the most part it's smooth. Soap opera music for this flash is fitting, especially when Strawberry Clock decides to go "an hero" by hanging himself.
Not to mention Strawberry Clock's homosexual lover then shot himself after seeing his lifeless body hanging. If only it was revealed that Strawberry Clock has cheated Pear-Cucumber Clock for another male clock, this would have made a decent soap opera.
One of my favorites this year.
I must admit, I was laughing the whole way through. The animation wasn't really anything to glance at, but you made a full recovery in that department due to all the humor in the flash. The scene with the bullet made me laugh the hardest when you zoomed in on the bullet and it was so misshapen and the heart coming out topped it off, it was a perfect ending. I was surprised how much I enjoyed it, the loose sense of comedy in this made it much more amusing than I intended.
The theme from the Incredible Hulk was a great touch, that was the first thing that made me laugh. It's also odd how fitting this seemed for the last Clock Day, it makes sense somewhat since it was a drought this year that Strawberry would commit suicide. I'm probably just over analyzing it but I thought that was a neat coincidence. Overall, a very underrated movie this Clock Day, I'll gladly recommend it for the collection. Keep up the great work!
Sad but solid
This was a good flash you made for Clock Day 2010,the animation was solid and the audio was very sad that fit in with the sadness of the flash itself with Strawberry Clock killing himself,overall you did a nice job on your contribution for Clock Day 2010.
The sad going away music from the hulk

The story great - the narrator, horrid.
- sidhecat
Too scary to listen to in the dark !
Yes ....because there are probobly some details I missed because I was SO incredibly spooked the first time around. Lol
I am still listening but this is the 2nd book in the series .
At first you are just listening and it all seems a bit mundane, interesting ...but then something will happen in the story that is so scary you are frightened to be alone . I don't want to spoil the story for anyone but there are a few pages that jump out at you.
I am not a kid , I have kids of my own , and I love tv shows like Ghost adventures and the Dead Files , and I enjoy a good thriller....but THIS is an unexpected and frightening series ! I love it but I would NOT recommend to younger teens.
A bit fast
Mattie - the main character.
Because she has gone through so much and she stays so strong but still she is incredibly vulnerable. You can't help but admire her.
Please continue the series. I am addicted!
But a caveat , it is highly violent and very spooky and as I said before it is more of an older teen or even an adult series even though the characters are teens and young adults for the most part.
If it was a movie it would be rated R 17 just to give you an idea.

Norwegian Cruise Line Announces "Cruise Like A Norwegian" Advertising Campaign
Written by: David Beers
Norwegian Cruise Line announced today that it is unveiling a new brand platform and integrated national advertising campaign – "Cruise Like a Norwegian" – that embraces and celebrates the community of diverse vacationers who embody the passion, freedom and flexibility inherent in a Norwegian Cruise Line Freestyle Cruising® vacation. Cruising like a "Norwegian" is for those who live life to the fullest, embrace new adventures and are passionate about their experiences.
The campaign marks Norwegian's first return to network television advertising since 2008 and also integrates social media, digital and onboard elements, providing a complete immersion in the Norwegian community. This is also the first work from the line's new agency partner, The Martin Agency, which the company engaged in March.
"We've spent the last four years working a variety of initiatives across our organization to improve and enhance our company and our brand," said Kevin Sheehan, chief executive officer of Norwegian Cruise Line. "We felt this is the right time to issue this bold invitation to cruise with us by piquing interest and creating excitement around our brand. We believe this new brand platform will differentiate us and help clearly define a Norwegian cruise as one of the best vacations."
The visual embodiment of the campaign is a brand essence video that illustrates the passion and enthusiasm of Norwegian cruisers who can "Dine like a Parisian," "Surf like a Hawaiian," "Party like a Brazilian," and "Love like a Venetian," among other things. An original score "Let's Go!" was created to accompany the video. Television advertising, beginning tonight, includes one 30-second and two 15-second spots running during prime time on the ABC and CBS television networks, as well as on seven national cable channels, including Travel Channel, HGTV, MSNBC and Discovery Channel.
"Our goal with this new platform is to elevate our profile and put Norwegian Cruise Line front and center by expressing what it means to vacation with us and inviting people to join the community of Norwegians," said Maria Miller, Norwegian Cruise Line's senior vice president of marketing. "We are confident that this integrated campaign – from TV to social media and digital – will engage our community in fun and memorable ways."
Social media plays a large role in this new platform. Leading up to the launch, Norwegian's Facebook page featured a six-day countdown that asked fans to post their favorite photos to illustrate how Norwegians dine, shop, party, etc. Beginning today, Norwegian's Facebook page highlights the brand essence video which can be shared with friends. There is also an opportunity for fans to "Mix it Up" and make their own "Cruise Like a Norwegian" personalized video using their photos and setting it to one of three custom music remixes of the "Let's Go" song. Finally, an interactive personality quiz asks "How Norwegian Are You?" The results show how closely respondents align with a "Norwegian" lifestyle and then groups like-minded "Norwegians" together by personalities. Upon completing the quiz, fans are rewarded with a special 'badge' that is posted to their Facebook page.
These social media elements are combined with digital media efforts including custom page takeovers, rich media banners that invite consumers to watch the brand video and a re-skinned Norwegian web site that all work together to raise awareness about how to "Cruise Like a Norwegian" and to engage consumers with the brand.
As part of the company's continued commitment to its Partners First philosophy, travel partners will also be provided with the tools and resources they need to help them feel part of the "Norwegian" community and to help them spread the word to their clients. The company is rolling out a new course at NCL University, providing partners with inside tips on "How to Market Norwegian;" new marketing materials on its Marketing Headquarters platform; and a video message introducing the new brand to travel partners.
The brand platform comes to life onboard Norwegian's ships when guests are officially welcomed into the Norwegian community and can experience the "Cruise Like a Norwegian" themed Sail-Away Party and drink menu; all new White Hot Party with "Norwegian" elements; special "Cruise Like a Norwegian" photo and video opportunities; and a revised farewell show, so guests will continue to feel a part of the Norwegian community until their next cruise.

Do they ie: NCL , really think they can carry off the "essence" of Norway or that the line embodies anything that even resembles something Norwegian?
There has not been a real Norge feel at sea since Norwegian America Line sic: Norwegian America Cruises, the CUANRD/NAC, Royal Viking Line, and thats about it.
The late '60's and early 70's did see a spat of Norwegian life at sea, with Royal Caribbean Cruise Line, and of course, NCL. Basically, in ships registration, which was Oslo or Bergen.
To align with Norwegian lifestyle, well, socialistic, and far more well rounded and more sheltered than the US lifestyle. I see this as a mere sham.
Give me some trolls, a slab of geatoast (thats a Norwegian cheese for those a-clueistic), smoked salmon with lots of dill and quark, and then sing Norwegian Wood!
Now, thats Norwegian!

They are using "Norwegian" to mean aficionado of Norwegian Cruise Line and freestyle cruising, and not in the proper sense as a citizen of Norway. The executives were asked if people would confuse the meaning and they assured us that surveys indicated people knew what they meant. We'll see as the jury is still out.
Comment from Kenneth Eden
Time October 12, 2011 at 4:11 am
I agree to a point of the confusion problems that could arise, I just personally feel it is just what it is, a marketing tool, meaningless to any national heritage. could NCL and their ad agency done better, probably.
Lets do see how this pans out. I still go for the heritage!
Comment from Kenneth Eden
Time October 14, 2011 at 9:15 am
I have reviewed this adv. and and not in the least impressed.
Is it that you can not even tell this for a cruise line, not 'till the very last seconds of the ads?
Cruise like a__________/ How 'bout the Bangles, "Walk like an Egyptian"!

My Favorite Savory Chicken Salad
READY IN: 5mins
Recipe by Jennibear
This is for people who cringe at the thought of fruit in their chicken salad! There are no raisins... no grapes... no pineapple bits... nothing sweet in this recipe!! I grew up on the salty flavors of the chicken salad from the New York Deli in Boulder, CO. It was delicious! They closed many years ago - and that drove me to make my own version. Here it is! Serve on a toasted bagel (my favorite) or stuff in a pita, or in a croissant - fancy! Always delicious!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 chicken breasts, cooked
- 1⁄2 cup mayonnaise
- 1⁄2 cup celery, chopped up, small pieces
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1⁄4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon garlic powder
Directions See How It's Made
- Cut of your cooked chicken into small, bite size pieces (or you can shred your chicken). Mix all ingredients together in a medium bowl, combine well. That's it!
- Watch your mayonnaise as you go -- we like ours on the dry side -- if you love mayo - you can always add more -- but it's really hard to take out if you add too much. Be careful people! I recommend Hellmans Brand mayo -- good flavor.
- You could add some slivered almonds - if you like that kind of thing.
- Also - you can use any kind of cooked chicken: baked, boiled, sauteed, crock pot -- a roasted chicken from the grocery store! It all works and tastes great!
- Take a little nibble of your mixture and see how it tastes. Adjust seasonings to taste. My mom always said that if your recipe doesn't taste quite right -- add a little more salt. That was her secret -- and she was right!
- Slather your chicken salad on your favorite bread of choice and enjoy!
- Yum Yum!

I have an IP range that has more than one set of windows credintials, possible multiple AIX and Liunx credinitials. What I am wondering is is there a way to set it up with more than one set of windows credintials in a range scan? I have been messing with Spiceworks and haven't figured this out yet. Thanks.
2 Replies
Jan 7, 2009 at 10:09 UTC
You can only associate one account with one range. To manage different credentials, you'll have to know which machines need which credentials, and then specify them that way in the scan table. See the discussion in this thread for more: http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/28734
Jan 7, 2009 at 10:29 UTC
Yeah, I started just adding machines as ranges. I mean, that almost seems like a better idea, considering all of our machines are static and if they get moved it will alert instead of just letting it happen, which is what we are trying to avoid.
Thanks for the help.

Flexible Dieting: An Example of Daily Eating
Editor's note: This article by Joe String originally appeared at Machine Muscle.
Being highly involved in the fitness industry, having an impressive physique and possessing a large amount of knowledge in regards to nutrition, I am frequently asked,
"What do you eat in a day?"
As a matter of fact, I am usually asked this about five times a week by different people. It's not a bad idea to get the opinion or a sample diet from someone reputable, but a lot of people expect to hear things such as endless amounts of vegetables, chicken breasts, high quality oils and absolutely nothing processed or high in sugar and saturated fat.
Related: 5 Reasons Flexible Dieting Isn't For Me
I do include my fair share of nutritious, whole food sources. But let's not forget that on top of being dissatisfied with that style of eating, overall macronutrient consumption is the most important thing that matters when speaking in terms of body composition.
As you read on, you will learn what I look for when I structure my diet.
Do I always opt for the more tasteful food sources and often neglect micronutrient density and satiety? How many meals do I eat in a day? What kinds of foods do I thoroughly enjoy and how often do I fit them into our macros?
Finally, what are some ways I include less tasteful and more nutritious foods while making them highly enjoyable? I'm going to take a deeper look and go meal by meal to find out the answers.
My Flexible Diet Example
I have to begin with one fact regarding my diet. The following meal layouts I will discuss are optimal as far as hitting our macros.
All of this can be done in one meal or nine meals, all in the morning or all right before bed. And finally, it will be done with completely pre-packaged foods and processed goodies.
Again, these meal layouts are what I have in mind in a perfect world, but know that macronutrient timing is irrelevant and what foods those macronutrients come from is entirely a personal preference.
Meal One
Most of the time, meal one contains primarily carbohydrates and protein with a moderate fat count.
In order to provide my muscles with good fuel early on, which makes it easier to hit my daily protein macro, I consume some here. My fat intake is typically on the lower side because I enjoy high carb/protein diets, so I may look to steer clear of foods high in fat (15-20g+) here. Those calories add up quickly, leaving me with less room for fatty foods later on in the day.
Now here is the information you are looking for: What foods do I actually eat? More likely than not, I will reach for common breakfast foods such as eggs, oats, fruit, etc. With that said, if I feel like eating a toaster pastry, some frozen waffles or buttermilk pancakes, I won't shy away.
This is where the concept of moderation comes into play. With macronutrient make-up in mind, I can conclude that two toaster pastries is nearly equal to one and a half cups of oatmeal (actually, the oatmeal is more calorie dense). It is important to note that the oatmeal may be more filling and will more than likely leave you more satisfied. But if discipline is not an issue, one can easily enjoy the processed pastry without giving in to a quick rebound-hunger shortly after.
Also, as far micronutrient sufficiency goes, many processed goods are fortified with nutrients. Whole food sources are better for consuming your vitamins and minerals, but fortified foods are better than nothing. The only thing they lack is fiber, which we have plenty of time to make up for later in the day.
Meal Two
I want to speak of meal two as if it were a pre-workout meal.
A lot of people new to the bodybuilding lifestyle believe the foods that surround their workouts will make or break their gains or fat loss. Knowing this idea is false, gives me the opportunity to show you why these meals are nowhere near as important as you think.
First things first – no two people are the same. Some people enjoy training while fasted, and some like to put down a high amount of carbohydrates right before they workout. Some need a nice-sized, balanced meal a couple of hours before their workout.
As a diet coach, my diet is nowhere near as complicated as one would think. I eat what I want, when I want it.
There is no particular benefit or down side to any of these regimens. Pick whichever one works best for you.
I like to find a meal that is not on the heavy side but does contain a decent amount of calories. Again, carbohydrates make up a large amount of this meal as well as protein. I know that I am going to be using up some glycogen in the gym and will also be tearing muscle, so those two macronutrients, protein and carbohydrates, are preferred here.
I will also include a little bit of fat. This fat will already be in our food choices or the ingredients used in preparation of those choices. Food choices do not matter here.
I'm sure you are expecting to hear brown rice and chicken breast, but if I can only find four slices of white bread and some whey, I will make that work just as well. This goes back to the whole idea behind flexible dieting; it does not matter what you eat or when you eat it, what matters is your numbers at the end of the day.
Meal Three
Meal three we will look at as if it were a post-workout meal. Let me guess, you say: "a whey protein shake with at least 50g of fast acting carbohydrates." My greatest response to that nonsense would be that I enjoy whole foods much more than shakes and dextrose powder.
In saying that, I must tell you all that this meal is no different than any other meal throughout the day. Whatever I feel like eating at this time, I simply eat. As a matter of fact, if I am not hungry, I will not eat.
There is still time left in the day to finish hitting our macros. A lot of people opt to save post-workout nutrition for their "big meal" or cheat meal. They believe that everything post-workout goes directly to gains or is burned instantaneously. This is false, but I am usually very hungry post-workout so I do consume my most caloric dense meal at this time.
If my family plans on going out to dinner, I will usually wait to work out directly before that meal in an attempt to have heightened hunger so I can eat at a place that serves excellent food. Remember, though, this does not give you the excuse to go out of line.
"When eating out at a restaurant, be sure to add at least 5g of fat to the online nutrition facts, as most cooks get lazy and throw in extra butter, oil or cheese in attempt to please the customer."
Meal Four
Last, but far from least, is my final meal. As you can from each previous meal, the same conclusion usually surfaces; we eat what we want when we want it. I feel this is the most important paragraph for you to read.
If there are, for example, 80g of carbohydrate left over and it is 10 PM, guess what? We will eat those carbohydrates. It will not change our body composition one bit because the process of lipolysis will overcome lipogenesis when you remain in caloric balance. What time you ingest those calories and where they come from has absolutely no affect on the biological processes.
With this being true, I will usually opt for a delicious, satisfying treat to end my day. I do not have any more calories to "save" and can fill these existing numbers with foods of choice. Having fats left over is nice and they will allow you to feel full until bed time.
That's it, everyone. As a diet coach, my diet is nowhere near as complicated as one would think. I eat what I want, when I want it, while still making sure that my food choices fit into my macronutrient goals.

Has anyone successfully connected Windows 7 x64 over IP to a Xerox M24 copier?
I am told by Xerox that it's not supported.

Feb 9, 2011 at 1:14 UTC
I haven't messed with W7 x64 but, I've had some success installing drivers on x86 using drivers for newer printers to make older printers work. For instance the driver for a 4100 HP works just fine for a 4050. Sometimes it's just a matter of telling W7 you have newer hardware than you really do. Granted the correct drivers for the hardware is preferred but, in a pinch? If it doesn't work....your not out anything as the printer doesn't work now anyway. ;^)
I see that there is nothing even close to a M24 listed for x86 though, so that idea may be down the drain...sorry
