Respected Physician Reveals:
Dear Newsmax Reader,
Odds are high that at some point in your life, you'll need to go to the
You could be struck down by an illness or an injury — or perhaps just require some complicated elective surgery.
Whatever the case may be, a hospital visit should not be taken lightly. Why? See for yourself why you must avoid their hazards — if you want to get out alive.
Russell Blaylock M.D.
Here are just a few facts that hospitals don't want you to know:
FACT: Hospital complications and errors comprise the 8th leading cause of death in the U.S. (exceeding even motor vehicle accidents, breast cancer and AIDS) . . .
FACT: Hospital-acquired infections account for 100,000 American deaths each year . . .
FACT: Medical complications kill 30,000 more people a year (and cost us over $9.3 billion) . . .
FACT: Medication errors lead to 7,000 deaths annually . . .
And what makes these statistics even more tragic is this:
A single factor skyrockets your risk of developing a hospital-acquired infection (yet nearly every doctor will forget to warn you about it) . . .
This same factor causes the elderly to be more prone to in-hospital complications and require readmission to the hospital after discharge.
It also causes younger patients to require longer hospital stays and to die more frequently — or feel unwell as long as 18 months after leaving the hospital.
The factor?
Your doctor probably won't tell you this, but your risk of developing a
hospital-acquired infection directly correlates to your diet prior to entering
the hospital.
And sadly, even if you think your diet is adequate, you could be at least borderline malnourished. Particularly with today's SAD (standard American diet) — and the prevalence of junk food, sugar, food additives and other nutrition-busters.
This is only one of the reasons why our Newsmax health editor, Dr. Blaylock, devoted this issue of The Blaylock Wellness Report to showing you the best natural strategies to survive your hospital stay.
Discover How to Survive Your Hospital Visit Now!
You'll get the truth about preparing for surgery and other hospital stays.
How to strengthen yourself to survive. And how to avoid the breeding ground for the countless infections you'll be exposed to.
This knowledge is particularly essential if you have pre-existing heart or lung problems, diabetes, or even cancer . . .

Eddie Murphy to voice HONG KONG PHOOEY
Eddie Murphy has a lot of experience doing voice acting in the Shrek franchise. THR reprots that the Murphhy is in talks to voice the title character in an adaptation of Hanna-Barbera's Hong Kong Phooey. The film will be based on the TV series from the '70s about "a dog who becomes a kung fu crime fighter."
The adaptation will be directed by Alex Zamm (Tooth Fairy 2) for Alcon Entertainment, and is planned as a combination of live action and animation. The story follows "a dog, Penry (to be played by Murphy) who is granted mystic powers, including the ability to walk, talk and do kung fu. Donning a costume to become Hong Kong Phooey, he sets out to combat criminals." Scatman Crothers voiced the character in the TV series.
I am not sure how I feel about Murphy doing more voice work like this. I would much rather see him in more strictly live-action films like Tower Heist. What are your thoughts?

Hainsey, Pavelec and Byfuglien join Jets in Winnipeg as season nears
The Canadian Press
Published Wednesday, January 9, 2013 3:23PM CST
Last Updated Wednesday, January 23, 2013 12:38PM CST
WINNIPEG -- Winnipeg Jets defenceman Ron Hainsey says he doesn't know how fans will react when he skates on the ice this season.
Hainsey was front and centre during the NHL lockout as a player representative.
After a skate in Winnipeg, he said he's sorry the dispute took so long to settle and fans have a right to be upset.
Jets netminder Ondrej Pavelec also said he was sorry for his impaired driving conviction last year in his native Czech Republic.
Both were among the latest Jets to arrive as the team prepares for the lockout-shortened season to start.
Defenceman Dustin Byfuglien also took to the ice and looked fit but as usual laughed off requests to disclose his weight.

Twitter Question of the Week
February 24, 2010
To go along with today's article about small-business owners not always having enough time to properly implement SEO on their websites, I asked my Twitter followers what they would do with an extra 20 hours of time a week.
Here's what they said:
alkalar: Get reacquainted with my wife. (What's "extra time?")
catmears: 20 extra hrs a week? I'd spend some much-needed time organizing the people I follow on Twitter into more relevant groups for starters.
naominiles: Relax more, spend more time with @koldobarroso, and learn a new skill.
MichelleRobbins: Sleep. I'm behind at least that much during any given week ;)
troyredington: I would definitely write more. fatwallet blog, personal blog, guest blog, novels, poetry...anything really.
macgenie: Take more walks, play more music, do more cooking. (I hope the answer wasn't supposed to be more SEO research!)
leebrinckley: As much as I love my work, I would spend those extra hours with my family and painting.
SebastianX: I'd get funded to launch a Mahalo clone ;-)
Casieg: Write more guest posts and articles for outside sites.
forestsoftware: 20 hours of work time more content for websites & blogs, but 20 hours leisure time relearning my photography skills.
karl_ribas: Probably measure and analyze. I can never get enough face-time with my analytics.
diannahuff: Take time off. Cook more. Learn how to play piano. Take in a ballet performance.
LiquidWholeFood: An extra 20 hours per week? Probably work on expanding non-commercial content to help site visitors have extra help.
derekedmond: 3-way split: build out affiliate income stream, spend more time with family, get 1 more hour a day of sleep :-)
surfwebdev: More education: new technology, finances, business classes.
GavinSmithLeeds: Split 3 ways, 7 more hours of sleep, 8 hours to do my own work and 5 hours undisturbed with the better half.
ACTeeple: 20 hours a week would give me at least 1 weekend day to enjoy San Diego. I seem to be working at least a little every day.
And from the Facebook contingent:
Bonnie Parrish-Kell: Catch up on my SEO reading!
Adam John Humphreys: Go out, and actually attend some of these business meetups and tech events I'm constantly invited to.
Jill's comment: Hmm...I wonder if those who mentioned lofty pursuits outside of work would really do them. I have a feeling those 20 hours would have a magical way of disappearing just like the actual hours we DO have each week!
As for what I would do, I'm not really sure. I like to think I'd try to read more, but in reality, I'd probably just play more Scramble on Facebook ;)

A year later: has Oracle ruined or saved Sun?
Java: JSEE advances but disputes reign on several fronts Oracle's stewardship of Java, perhaps the most critical technology gained in the Sun acquisition, has been a mixed bag. The company in November submitted specifications for the Java Standard Editions 7 and 8, with accommodations for multicore processors and modularity, that the Java Community Process (JCP) approved in December. In September, Oracle also detailed plans to bolster the JavaFX rich Internet application platform. JavaFX 2.0 is due later this year, supporting hardware-accelerated graphics and updated UI controls.
Oracle, however, has had to deal with high-profile conflict. For example, after initially siding with Apache against Sun's proposed field-of-use restrictions for the Apache Harmony version of Java, Oracle switched sides after it bought Sun and supported the restrictions that Apache disliked. The restrictions, according to Apache, would prohibit Harmony's use on mobile platforms. The dispute, which goes back half a decade, finally led to Apache quitting the JCP Java SE/EE executive committee in December, with Apache protesting Oracle's control over Java.
More conflict in the Java realm has been over Oracle's highly publicized lawsuit against Google, which alleges that the Android mobile OS violates Java patents. The lawsuit prompted Google to pull out of the first Oracle-run JavaOne conference in September.
Even more conflict: Oracle has been promoting OpenJDK as the principal reference implementation of open source Java, getting backing from IBM in October. (IBM (IBM) previously had backed Apache's position.) This month, Oracle issued draft bylaws for OpenJDK ostensibly to encourage participants to act in an "open, transparent, and meritocratic manner." But critics note that Oracle appoints a chair and IBM a vice chair under the rules. "It was interesting to see IBM get a permanent position on the governing board as vice chair," said a cynical Magnusson, the Apache treasurer.
Solaris: Today's Oracle invests in the OS it used to ignore Oracle's jurisdiction over Solaris is a bit ironic since Oracle certainly did not help the platform when Sun began promoting commodity Linux in the days Sun was still independent. Nonetheless, Oracle has been moving forward with Solaris. In November, Oracle shipped Solaris 11 Express, which is geared to developers and serves as a preview of Solaris 11, due in 2011. Version 11 is set to increase application throughput, improve performance, and boost reliability and security.
Another Oracle move, however, could prompt Solaris users to look at Linux. The company last year changed the free usage provision of Solaris 10, limiting it to 90 days. Sun had been offering the operating system free of charge in hopes of selling support subscriptions. Oracle also put a dent in the OpenSolaris open source version of Solaris, with leaked plans revealing intentions to stop developing it. In August, the OpenSolaris Governing Board voted to dissolve itself.

The keyboard design works while re-imagined keys in a modular and remarkably flexible fashion. When children play along with building blocks, they develop shape recognition skill and increase eye-hand coordination. Keeping this in mind, the particular designer started to develop unique musical instrument in which works similar to building blocks toy, but in this case, children understand to understand and also composed songs. Blu musical keyboard also improves children's sense involving timing and improvisation.

Optimistic CEOs Can Be Good For The Bottom Line
— Should stockholders prefer CEOs who are strictly rational about their firms' prospects or ones who are somewhat over-optimistic? Researchers at Texas A&M University's Mays School of Business show that somewhat-over-optimistic chief executives who are otherwise risk-adverse can be good for investors.
Most CEOs are undiversified, meaning that a large fraction of their personal wealth is in invested their company. Stockholders, on the other hand, are typically well diversified, with investments across numerous companies. These differences mean that a risk-averse CEO who is strictly rational will turn down some risky investment projects that the stockholders would like the firm to make. If this happens, the result is lower firm value.
"Given a choice between a very rational CEO and a moderately over-optimistic one," says Mays finance professor Shane Johnson, "the somewhat over-optimistic one is the better choice."
"We show theoretically that overoptimism can help offset the effect of the CEO's risk aversion," Johnson says. "The result is that a CEO who is moderately overoptimistic will invest the way shareholders would want her to invest — this maximizes firm value." In contrast, a purely rational CEO turns down too many investment projects relative to the optimal level, whereas a CEO who is too overoptimistic accepts too many investment projects. Both underinvestment and overinvestment produce firm values below what it could be.
"If the theory is correct, CEOs who are somewhat over-optimistic should face a lower probability of termination than rational CEOs or too-overoptimistic CEOs face. A board doesn't necessarily know a CEO's level of optimism when it hires her. It learns by watching his decisions over time," Johnson says. If CEOs who are somewhat overoptimistic maximize firm value, they should be more likely to keep their jobs than would CEOs with too-low or too-high optimism. Using a large sample of CEO terminations, the team finds strong empirical support for the theoretical predictions. The results are consistent with the view that CEOs who are somewhat over-optimistic maximize firm value.
Before this research was conducted, the common belief was that any level of overoptimism was bad, says Johnson. "Our paper is one of a series that argues that some level of overoptimism is good for CEOs," he says. "Given a choice between a very rational CEO and a moderately over-optimistic one, the somewhat over-optimistic one is the better choice."
The research was conducted by Texas A&M finance professor Shane Johnson; doctoral students T. Colin Campbell, Jessica Rutherford and Brooke Stanley; and former Texas A&M professor Michael Gallmeyer, who is at the University of Virginia.

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kroll Bond Rating Agency (KBRA) is pleased to announce the assignment of final ratings to the BB-UBS Trust 2012-SHOW transaction (see ratings list below). BB-UBS Trust 2012-SHOW is an $835.0 million CMBS single borrower transaction.
The collateral for the securitization is comprised of a single, non-recourse, first lien mortgage loan with an original principal balance of $835.0 million, made by Barclays Bank PLC and UBS Real Estate Securities Inc. to a special purpose entity that is indirectly owned and controlled by GGP Limited Partnership, an affiliate of General Growth Properties, Inc. (GGP). The loan is secured by the borrower's fee simple interest in 836,006 sf of a 1.86 million sf super-regional mall known as Fashion Show Mall, which is located on the Las Vegas Strip in Nevada. The mall features seven major tenants (> 10,000 sf) and 198 in-line (<10,000 sf), food court and kiosk tenants that are predominately leased to national retailers. There are seven anchor tenants, including Nordstrom, Macy's, Saks Fifth Avenue, Forever 21, Bloomingdale's Home, Neiman Marcus, and Dillard's, of which Forever 21 serves as loan collateral. Dillard's owns its improvements and the underlying land, and the remaining anchors own their improvements subject to a ground lease with the borrower.
The mall is currently undergoing a redevelopment of portion of the center that was formerly anchored by Robinson-May. The redevelopment space will serve as collateral for the loan, and will include a new 104,406 Macy's Men's anchor store, as well as 97,829 sf of in-line space. To mitigate completion risk, GGP funded a $25.5 million reserve, provided a completion guaranty, and signed a master lease.
KBRA's analysis of the transaction included a detailed evaluation of the property's cash flow using our CMBS Property Evaluation Guidelines, and the application of our CMBS Single Borrower and Loan Rating Methodology. The results of our analysis yielded a KBRA Net Cash flow (KNCF) of $78.0 million. To value the property, we applied a 7.0% capitalization rate to arrive at a KBRA value of $1.1 billion. Our resulting KBRA Loan to Value (KLTV) was 75.0%. In our analysis of the transaction, we also reviewed and considered third party engineering and environmental reports, as well as our own on-site inspection of the property and the competition.
For complete details on the analysis, please see our presale Report, BB-UBS Trust 2012-SHOW, published on October 23, 2012 at www.krollbondratings.com.
The preliminary ratings are based on information known to KBRA at the time of this publication. Information received subsequent to this release could result in the assignment of final ratings that differ from the preliminary ratings.

Fabrication allegations haven't disqualified Liane Membis from beauty pageant
New York Amsterdam News
Liane Membis, the Wall Street Journal intern fired for fabricating sources, is still representing Connecticut in the Miss Black America pageant. Aleta Anderson, executive producer of the pageant, tells Oulimata Ba that she spoke with Membis after she was fired.
"In my conversation with her she denies the allegations," Anderson said. "Her claim is that that's her actual source on the bridge when she was writing the story."
The Journal said in an editor's note that Membis fabricated many of the sources in a story about the re-opening of a pedestrian bridge in Manhattan.
Membis' denial doesn't exactly square with what she told the Yale Daily News:
"For me, I know personally it was an honest reporting mistake that I made," Membis said. "This is definitely something I've never done before."
Anderson said the quotations sound authentic to her. "In my opinion people really do talk like that ... I don't have any verification that her story is incorrect. ... And she is worthy to have written for the Wall Street Journal"

- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 1/2 cups corn kernels (cut from fresh corn on the cob, or frozen fresh corn)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup finely chopped red onion
- 1/2 cup finely chopped jarred roasted red peppers
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1 jalapeno, seeded and finely diced
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 8 ounces of shredded cheese (any combo of monterey jack and cheddar)
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Fritos Scoops or Tortilla chips, for dipping
This is a great dip! It's the perfect combination of sweet from the corn and salty from the cheese and chips. This is a recipe that I knew would be good just from looking at the ingredients, but it was even better than I had imagined. Everyone loved it, definitely a hit!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet. Add corn, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally until kernels turn a golden brown color (about 5 minutes). If you are using frozen corn, it won't turn golden brown, but that's ok – just cook for 5 minutes anyhow. Transfer corn to a bowl. Melt the other tablespoon of butter in the pan. Add onion and bell pepper. Stir often until onions begin to wilt (about 2 minutes). Add green onions, jalapeno, and garlic. Cook and stir for 2 more minutes until the vegetables begin to soften. Transfer the vegetable mixture to the bowl with the corn. Next, add the mayo, cayenne pepper, and most of the cheese (leave a small amount to sprinkle on top) to the bowl of vegetables and mix everything together. Pour into an 8 inch square baking dish or something similar like a pie dish. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Bake until bubbly and golden brown. About 10-12 minutes. Serve with Fritos Scoops or tortilla chips.

(Short Story) May Day Eve by: Nick Joaquin
(Reaction) Love Lost, Never Found by: Patrick Shane Diaz
View other reactions on works by Nick Joaquin.
Life is always full of regret, for we always realize what we have when it is gone. For Badoy and Agueda Montiya, they both lived and loved with hate, resentment, regret. As the story ends, Badoy realized how he wasted his time with Agueda, how he could have loved her, so much more than he did. He realized that he became the devil in Agueda's life, as she became the witch in his. In the end, they both blamed the superstition of May Day Eve.
For a moment he had forgotten that she was dead, that she had perished---the poor Agueda; that they were at peace at last, the two of them, her tired body at rest; her broken body set free at last from the brutal pranks of the earth---from the trap of a May night; from the snare of summer; from the terrible silver nets of the moon.
Fate is defined in the dictionary as an inevitable and often adverse outcome, condition, or end. The story is set under the assumption that Badoy and Agueda both believe in superstition, as well as fate. They believed that for they saw each other in the mirror that fated night that they are bound to be with each other.
What they failed to realize is that fate is dictated by the people involved. It is not anything inevitable, since love cannot be forced, only given or received. Badoy and Agueda fell into the trap of the May Day Eve, wherein they saw it as fate, only to be duped in the end by the circumstance of their relationship. However, they failed to see that it was how they saw their relationship to begin with, that caused them to be the devil/witch in their mirror that night.
Love is a splendid thing: it just happens, as most romantics say. That is how it had happened for Badoy and Agueda. But as the honeymoon stage ended, they both felt what was missing, and in turn grew to hate each other. What they never realized is that love is constantly worked on. Love is earned, and given willingly like it is free to the one we love.
Badoy and Agueda both saw the worst in each other whenever they told their children the story of that fateful night. They chose to see the worst, but in the end, it can be seen that they were in love. The worst in each other only came out when they chose to see it that way. Happiness comes out whenever we choose to be happy.
And remembering how she had sobbed so piteously; remembering how she had bitten his hand and fled and how he had sung aloud in the dark room and surprised his heart in the instant of falling in love: such a grief tore up his throat and eyes that he felt ashamed before the boy; pushed the boy away; stood up and looked out----looked out upon the medieval shadows of the foul street where a couple of street-lamps flickered and a last carriage was rattling away upon the cobbles, while the blind black houses muttered hush-hush, their tiled roofs looming like sinister chessboards against a wild sky murky with clouds, save where an evil old moon prowled about in a corner or where a murderous wind whirled, whistling and whining, smelling now of the sea and now of the summer orchards and wafting unbearable the window; the bowed old man sobbing so bitterly at the window; the tears streaming down his cheeks and the wind in his hair and one hand pressed to his mouth...
Regret comes to Badoy in the end, when he realized what he had lost. However, in the way he chose to see Agueda, he loved her in the end. The realization may have come too late. It is a pity that he had to regret the life he had with Agueda, as she did with him. Yet the May Day Eve can be seen as a blessing for the both of them. For they both loved each other, even though they failed to realize it.
The author chose to disguise the type of married life that the couple had. This can be seen as a way for readers to understand what was lost, or see the waste in what they had.

1800's Shriner surname help!
My g-g-g grandmother's name was Emily Shriner, b. in Barnesville, OH June 29 1838. She had sisters named Cassandra, Lucinda, Anne Marie, Susan, and Sarah. She had brothers named William and George Washington.
Their parents were Lawrence Shriner and Susanna Hulty. He came from Germany, but I don't know when. There could be several different spellings of his name as I think it was 'Americanized' when he got here.
I would love to have information on Lawrence and Susanna, and any of their children.
Any info, great or small is always welcome.

Nexos Voluntarios
To promote the exercise and rights of civil liberties through Responsible Human Development, alongside populations that live in poverty and social exclusion.
NeVo is a non-profit organization supported by the Inter-American Development Bank that seeks to promote the development of Peru through social projects in human rights, public health, community development, education, the environment, and business. Our projects benefit from the participation of international volunteers, who contribute skills and knowledge from their respective areas of study.
Inform about discrimination and responsible health in Urubamba's secondary schools and in the community; help the economy of the nearby village of Media Luna through developing its own rural tourism activity there; help to fight child malnutrition through lunch programs and greenhouse development in the communities of Yanahuara and Cuncani.
Projects are carried out in Urubamba, a town of about 15,000 that lies an hour northeast of Cusco, in southeastern Peru. The beauty of the landscape surrounding the rural Andean town is breathtaking, and the region is rich in history and culture. Nonetheless, Urubamba suffers from lack of access to quality education, adequate sanitation and medical services, and profitable economic activity. We also work in the high Andean, remote community of Cuncani focusing on combating child malnutrition.
Volunteers usually stay with a Peruvian host family local to Urubamba. However, if the volunteer is part of the Group Programs, then the whole group will sometime stay in a hostel.
NeVo's projects are based on the local reality of Urubamba and are designed to address the town's most urgent problems with sustainable strategies. They are all on-going initiatives, and therefore volunteers may generally begin and end their work at any time, though we require a minimum participation time of 8 weeks for most projects (flexible in some cases). Average program length is 9.14 weeks.

A place for my random mind to put out what is there. Like all things I'm expecting this to be trial and error. Some times I might put up my thoughts on a subject; other times I could just put up my poems. I'm just not sure yet. There really going to be no theme to this since I really don't expect anyone's mind to be themed. Hope you all enjoy what I write. gaia_nitemareleft

ADAMS TWP — The Mars Rod and Gun Club has the distinction of being the first organization to hold a benefit for the Glade Run Lake Conservancy, and members hope others will follow.
The conservancy is raising money to pay for repairs at the former Glade Run Lake in Middlesex Township, which was drained in the summer of 2011 because of a faulty dam. The group's goal is to have the 52-acre lake refilled, which will cost about $4 million.
Enter Mars Rod and Gun Club vice president Fred Dean. He said a member suggested that the club hold a fundraiser for the conservancy to raise awareness of its efforts as well as cash.
Dean contacted conservancy board members, and the result was Shoot for the Lake, a benefit shoot on Oct. 14 at the club on Cashdollar Road. It raised $3,500.
The conservancy board was elated at the idea.
"It was an incredible offer for them to do it," said Bonnie Chappell, the conservancy's vice president.
She said about 80 people attended the event.
"For a first-time event, I thought it was very well-attended," Chappell said.
Dean said no admission fee was charged, and the club offered various fun, skill-related shooting contests as well as a silent auction and prize drawings.
He said businesses volunteered when they heard the fundraiser would benefit the return of the drained lake, which was once attracted fishermen, boaters, families, ice-skaters and wildlife.
Regarding the contests, muzzleloaders, rifles, pistols, and even archery equipment were used in various games.
Dean said one competition saw shooters aiming at an egg hanging from a string at varying distances depending on the gun and whether it included a site or scope.
A number of meat shoots were also held in which individual shooters attempted to take out as many of the 10 clay birds launched into the air as possible. Winners received a turkey breast or other cut of meat.
The lucky target shoot saw contestants aim a shotgun at a paper plate 25 yards away. A target was randomly on each plate, and the shooter with a BB closest to the target was the winner.
"It was a lot of fun," Dean said. "We had people saying (to skilled marksmen) 'Here's a dollar. Will you shoot for me?'"
The rod and gun club also sold food and soft drinks.
Dean said many members of the club are outdoorsmen, and were disappointed to see the lake drained.
"More than half are into fishing," Dean said. "It was nice to have a local place where you can spend a couple hours at the end of the day or take the kids out some evening. It was nice to have that right around the corner."
He said he hopes the event increased awareness about the lake.
"It's amazing how many people don't even know that the lake has been drained," Dean said.
He praised the efforts of the conservancy board and members, and said his club hopes to hold another event in the spring that includes other sportsmens' clubs.
Dean hopes Shoot for the Lake and future fund-raisers at the club will help Glade Run Lake reopen.
"You don't miss something until it's gone."
More information on Glade Run Lake and the effort to have it reopened is available at www.gladerunlakeconservancy.org.

Ron Paul admits Mitt Romney 'pretty close to' nomination, but will of course continue to fight
With the political reality of Mitt Romney's inevitable nomination coming into starker focus, fellow presidential candidate Ron Paul admitted on Fox News today that the former Massachusetts governor is "getting pretty close" to clinching the nomination.
"Well, it's getting pretty close to that," Paul told host Neil Cavuto after being asked whether he agreed Romney would be the "eventual nominee." Despite this admission of his campaign's ultimate failure, though, Paul promised to keep going out on the trail, because, echoing Newt Gingrich, he says he owes his supporters, and can perhaps snatch up a few more delegates.
"I think that's what the people who support me want me to do, because they don't think we should quit when we are only halfway through the race. And there's a lot of people working their way through the delegate process, and that takes a while — that might be until June or so," Paul said. Yep, the never-ending primary season will march on — if not officially, at least in spirit. Lucky us.
Paul also again blasted the media for not covering his campaign enough: "We're fighting the lack of coverage we get. Last night we had 6,200 show up at Chico at the university. I looked for a release on this or an article, so I looked at the Internet, and they said, 'Where's Ron Paul? He's disappeared. He's quiet." As you know, there are no longer any reporters embedded in Paul's campaign, because all the major outlets realized it was a waste of energy.

^^New hair, fresh spray tan, ready for vacay
Mmm Vacation. I was looking forward to this for like a month. So ready for the warmth of Arizona, so ready to just chill and relax and let family play with my babies.
^^What a good husband!
Our flight left in the afternoon and it was only like an hour so there was really no chance of either kid sleeping. But Chris was an angel and let me sit all by myself in the back of the plane while he took care of BOTH kids. I think it was the most relaxing flight I've ever had in my whole life. Seriously magical.
^^Look how relaxed I am on the flight all by myself!
^^Babies require a lot of crap
We flew in with Chris' little sister Caitlin who Evelyn is seriously in love with so that was nice too. The whole reason for the trip was for Chris' brother's wedding. So once in town, Caitlin and I headed out to get a gift for the bridal shower that night. We picked something super boring off the registry: sheets, and then something that we thought would make a nice companion gift, lingerie. Obvs.
The funny thing is that since their registry was at Target, everyone who decided to also get the bride lingerie ended up getting her the exact same thing. Dumb Target, only having one bridal worthy type of lingerie. At least that way she can make returns and pick out exactly what she wants.
The next day I went for a brisk 5 mile run (half marathon here I come) and in return got a massive blister just in time for the wedding on Saturday. So..that was great.
^^Hugest blister EVER!
I set up a party with all the bridesmaids to do matching Jamberry nails for the wedding so we did that on Friday afternoon. Then Friday evening, the boys went out for a "bachelor party" (dinner and laser tag) and I went out with the bride and a couple of Chris' sisters for dinner. It was a lot of fun. We spent the whole time making the bride feel super awkward by talking about sex. But I mean really…what else were we gonna talk about the night before the wedding??
The morning of the wedding, Chris' stepmom set up a little easter egg hunt for the kids. Evelyn LOVED getting two Easters.
The wedding was just beautiful. Evelyn loved running around outside the temple while everyone was waiting for the bride and groom to emerge. But she was not about to let the bride steal the show.
^^Waiting for the bride and groom is hard.
^^"Why is everyone looking at the bride…Can't they see I'm right here?"
At one point I lost track of her and saw her little shoes peeking out from behind a pillar. She was playing doctor with Chris' sister and having surgery done on her knee. Naturally.
I even managed to hobble around in my heels with my blister becoming more and more painful. Pain is beauty my friend.
I take too many selfies, true or false? Trick Question! There's no such thing.
^^I seriously love this picture. Chris with his baby brother, newly married and ready to take on life.
Evelyn spent the reception shoving cupcakes into her face and dancing like a maniac. She is seriously so hilarious.
Sunday, we skipped church and went to visit my Grandma and Aunt where Evelyn got yet another Easter surprise. I guess it's understandable that people want to spoil such a cute little girl. By now she's a pro at opening gifts.
^^Great Grammy's house is the best!
^^Everyone loves goldfish right
On Monday we grabbed a rental car and made the trek to California for our Disneyland Adventure….
To be continued.

The fish kill stretched about 17 miles downstream from the Ozark-Jetta Taylor Lock and Dam, and included about 83,000 freshwater drum and 1,000 other fish, including yellow bass, white bass, bluegill and sauger.
White bass and crappie in the spring along with some sauger.
Hello all ! Sorry been away lately. Trout bite is ON now. Anyone else been doing any fishing ?
I suspect Walleyes Unlimited is preparing for the potential listing of sauger as threatened or endangered, alhtough I don't really see the advantage of having an erroneous, legislated designation of native should listing occur.
Uploaded on February 03, 2009 im new to sauger fishing and i was looking for tips and tactics. especially for fishing from banks or bridges as i dont have a boat. i live in southern indiana on the ohio and im just looking for local knowledge techniques and baits.
Basically anything that works for walleye will work for sauger, they just tend to suspend shallower.
A saugeye is a hybrid cross between a walleye and a sauger.
The spray sauger fish with Walleye and they get Saugeye.
Most anglers focus on the river's walleye and sauger fishery, which peaks in spring and fall in the current flow beneath lock and dam systems.
The 2010 Wisconsin hook-and-line game fish season opens next Saturday on inland waters for walleye, sauger and northern pike statewide.
I'm told that walleye and sauger fishing is going great on the Cumberland River.

The normally subversive Spike Lee takes a rare genial tack in Inside Man, a project that must be intended to give him more Hollywood street (or boulevard) cred. This is a leisurely, smoothly made and very pleasant hostage pictureand if my criticism is implicit in that description, I found myself savoring a thriller (as well as a Spike Lee joint) that wasn't, for a change, in my face.
Clive Owen plays a coolly deliberate robber who, with a small posse of masked gunmen, seizes a Wall Street bank but seems strangely indifferent to the vault's immense stacks of bills. What's his game? Could it have anything to do with a mysterious safe-deposit box owned by the pillar-of-society chairman (Christopher Plummer), who hires his own high-priced consultant (Jodie Foster) to open an underground channel with the thieves? The police negotiator (Denzel Washington) studies the situation like a chess grandmaster and holds off making contact with the heist leader. I'm not callin' him yet, he murmurs. Doesn't feel right . . . yet. Neither he nor the picture is in any hurry.
For all the hop in his technique, Lee's films rarely have a lot of momentum. He's always ready to distend the narrative with bits of local (in this case, interracial) color and moody tracking shots. Here, the limpid score by Terence Blanchard is like a Bond soundtrack slowed down and reorchestrated by Elmer Bernstein: delightful, armchair stuff. And even if Owen's robber is not too squeamish to pistol-whip a bureaucrat who tries to conceal a cell phone, he doesn't appear to have the sociopathic chops. The addition of tricky flash-forwards featuring Washington and his partner (that charismatic chameleon Chiwetel Ejiofor) interrogating former hostages tips you off that, at the very least, an all-out massacre is not in the cards.
Foster's sleekly confident fixer is memorable only as a change of pace: Without evident emotional investment or vulnerability, she's not particularly vivid. But Owen and Washington are endlessly delightful enigmas. Washington, with his head shaved, is so casual that he borders on goofy; he's almost Brando-weird. But nobody is slumming in Inside Man, least of all Lee. After pugnaciously leading with his integrity for more than two decades, maybe he even enjoyed making an impersonal heist picture. I can see all the studio heads reaching for their phones when they realize the movie's real bad guy was once beastly to the Jews: Spikewassup, dog! Have I got a project for you!
As the son of William F., the humorist Christopher Buckley evidently can't bring himself to endorse the politically correct, but he's big enough to admit that maybe cigarettes do give people cancer and ease of access to guns might have its downside. The upshot is his ironic novel Thank You for Smoking, with its stylishly amoral protagonist, Nick Naylor, a virtuoso spinmeister for Big Tobacco. In the grand libertarian tradition, Buckley admires Nick (and his comrades in the firearm, junk-food, and alcohol industries) for bearing the slings and arrows of the moralistic liberal media. And while Nick has enough stature to be mildly abashed by what he does, Buckley reserves his real contempt for meddlesome big government in the form of a crusading anti-smoking senator (played in the film by William H. Macy) who is not only a bantamweight opportunist but has no élan, no joie de vivre.
Whatever his politics, Buckley is archly amusing and light on his feet. The young director Jason Reitman (another sonof Ivan), who adapted the novel, is arch and leaden. To work onscreen, Thank You for Smoking needed to be fast, scruffy, and offhand. But even the good lines here last a self-congratulatory beat too long. Aaron Eckhart is likable, but he's too hangdog and naturalistic for a part that could have used a brisk young Jack Lemmon type. (As a reporter who uses her big, rapt eyes and hot bod to tease out his secrets, Katie Holmes has more of a chance to cut loose.) The scenes that should set the movie's tone, Nick's leisurely lunches with the mod Squada.k.a. the Merchants of Death, played by Maria Bello (alcohol lobbyist) and David Koechner (gun lobbyist)are visually dead. (You mainly see Bello in profile.) Reitman and his cinematographer, James Whitaker, have come up with a peculiar yellowish, overexposed look that doesn't fit the materialunless it's meant to suggest how tobacco leaves one's lungs, which I somehow doubt.
Introduce a helpless infant into a movie and the stakes immediately rocket, which is what happens in Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne's exhausting L'Enfant. As in the Belgian brothers' Rosetta and The Son, the protagonist is unreadable for a while and unlikable for much longer; it's only when his conscience rises to the surface that he comes into focus. Bruno (Jérémie Renier) is an unemployed petty thief who routinely exploits young kids to do his dirty work. His lone accomplishment seems to have been fathering a boy with his girlfriend, Sonia (Déborah François)an accomplishment he definitively negates by impulsively selling the child, without the mother's knowledge, to a ring of illegal adoption brokers. Living in an avaricious fog with no larger awareness, stirred only by sex, (tacky) clothes, and booze, Bruno appears to be blindsided by Sonia's response: tremors, uncomprehending gurgles, unconsciousness, inconsolable grief, and borderline catatonia. As the young man wanders around trying to process what he's done, he discovers that the road back into his girlfriend's arms is more arduous than any he has traveled before.

Mancora Ratings and Reviews
IT took 45minutes to get our drinks. There was one waiter for the whole restaurant. The ceviche was good but the rest of the food was not what we expected, seafood rice (was tomato sauce and barboiled rice with seafood thown in top) and the salmon dish was too well done and mashed potatoes where boxed mashed potatoes mix with green food coloring).
The pisco sour was good.
This restaurant was better 4yrs ago. Maybe they changed chefs, I don't know. But I remember the food was much better and they had more sangria choices. Also, the new bar with the disco lights is kind of tacky. I liked it better when they remained somewhat authentic to a Peruvian restaurant.
Since I've eaten here before and have had good experiences, I'm guessing this night was an off night? Service was horrendous. Was seated at a table without any place setting. My boyfriend ordered before me as I wasn't ready but the waiter never came back to get my order. Other tables were given plantain chips but not us. It was a very bad experience.
It was closed!!!!! How can I make a reservation, have it confirmed and then show up to a totally closed restaurant? This was among friends, but I use open table to book for work all the time, and this would have been super embarrassing in a professional setting. Would love to know how this happened.
We had a huge party for the place 15 people and they were able to accommodate us. The food was great. having two vegetarian entree options at a Peruvian place was unexpected and much appreciated. The plantain chips at the table were delicious. When one person in our party's food took longer than everyone else's to come out of the kitchen, they made it right with a free drink for him. We really appreciated the service and had an amazing time there. The desserts are amazing btw, the chocolate empanadas are a must try.
From the dishes that I had (ceviche mancora, anticuchos, seco de cordero) they did not taste as good as they could have. The food is not bad but it does not live up to the flavor of Peruvian cuisine. Ceviche is usually made with corvina no red snapper and you should ask if the table wants with aji or without ají. The seco was good but everything else was average. The service was good and the pisco sour was very good. A note on the anticucho is that it came out a little cold and it was a very thing piece of cow heart which usually anticuchos are a bit thicker.
Celebrated a friend's birthday here, and with 14 people that is often challenging to pull off in the East Village. Mancora was more than accommodating, and we had a great wait staff that was patient with us as we continued to order tapas to the table. Food was above average - nothing amazing, but very good - and it allowed us to enjoy and have a great time with all of our friends. Additionally, I appreciated that the restaurant allowed our party to be seated in waves; we had people coming from all over and it was nice to be able to ease into the evening as opposed to having to wait for the entire party before being seated.
All in all, a very positive experience. Definitely would go again with a large group.
Good food but very noisy. Not the restaurants fault but it's your typical Manhattan energy from the guests.
Also, the neighborhood area was average and the walk from the 2 train stop to the restaurant was average.
The dessert was awesome though - cake with ice cream and condensed milk and cut apples
We've been to Mancora three or four times, but moved away from the East Village and haven't been back in over a year. We started with the grilled octopus which was really delicious. It was charred perfectly and everyone enjoyed it. Drinks were part of happy hour until 8PM so our first drinks were cheaper than the others (although also much smaller). I got a Mojito after happy hour was over and it was really good. It had a branch of sugar cane in it which was really sweet and fun to eat. For dinner everyone got seafood - I asked for the Cilantro rice with mine because it's fantastic. We also got the dessert which is a cake with condensed milk - really superb.
Overall Mancora is a really tremendous value with great food. I highly recommend.
I've always loved this place with its big door/windows but on a really hot summer night in NYC I prefer air conditioning. It was so hot and dinner took almost an hour to arrive. The avocado salad was delicious and quite plentiful as well as the ceviche Mancora. It had a wonderful assortment of everything in the sea. The steak was a bit well done when we ordered medium. Our entrees came out 5 minutes apart from each other which is always awkward and leaves a diner at a loss for whether to begin to eat or wait politely. The pisco sours were spot on. Overall, still good but not great.
Excellent Ceviche Mancora & roasted chicken. Portions are not skimpy, either - we ordered just those two entrees to share (1/2 chicken came with rice & beans, and complimentary plantain chips and cilantro sauce) and two people were very happily stuffed. Wait staff is chill, friendly, and polite ... promptly attentive without hovering or intruding. This was my third or fourth time at Mancora over the course year, and I plan to return many times.
I have been to Mancora many times. The food is delicious and the service is great. As with all restaurants, I would just like to know where they get their seafood from so I can make sure it's sustainable slavery-free. This is largely due to the recent Pulitzer Prize winning series of AP reports on how much shrimp is peeled by people. e.g. from Myanmar/Burmawho, enslaved and treated brutally and forced to peel shrimp in Indonesia and Thailand. Much of this slavery-caught seafood has been sent to restaurants and grocery stores in the U.S. such as Red Lobster, Albertson's, Walmart, etc. I wanted to make sure that the places that Mancora sources their seafood from does not have slavery in their supply chain. I emailed the restaurant and received no answer. Due to all this I wanted to order the shrimp entree but because I couldn't find out about their seafood, I ate dinner at home and only ordered only a side dish of papas a la huncaina, which were delicious. Pisco sours are always great too.

The Hidden Girl: A True Story of the Holocaust
The Hidden Girl: A True Story of the Holocaust
with Lola Rein Kaufman
By Lois Metzger
A gripping tale of one young girl's struggle to survive during the Holocaust.
When her mother is killed by the Gestapo, a Jewish girl named Lola is sent into hiding. At first, Lola secretly lives in the home of a Ukrainian woman. But when someone threatens to expose her to the Nazis, Lola must flee again, this time hiding with another family in a dirt hole beneath a barn.
Struggling against cold and hunger, the hidden family lives under the constant threat of discovery. Lola has lost everything—her home and her family. All she has left is one article of clothing, a dress lovingly embroidered by her mother. Will Lola ever find safety—or freedom?
This moving, accessibly written memoir is a testament to the power of courage and hope.
At the New York Society Library, Lola Rein Kaufman and I spoke about our book, The Hidden Girl: A True Story of the Holocaust.
Here's a video of my introductory remarks and Lola's presentation:

Face needs dimension and adding various shades deeper and lighter than you're actual skin tone will add depth to the face. Countering is the way I prefer to add dimension to my face. Having olive skin tone I never felt the need to bronze my skin. Don't be surprised when I say I don't use bronzer of any kind.
However, during my last online shopping on Superdrug website I decided to try bronzing primer to get a gist of the bronzing world and what better option do I have then trying Bronzing Primer by Bourjois.

Food and beverage products manufactured and marketed specifically for children account for 4% of overall food and beverage industry sales.
Rockville, MD (PRWEB) March 06, 2014
A long-acknowledged reality is that almost any American home with a child present is also likely a household in which a child wields substantial influence over the retail products purchased. Younger children under age 9 are a particularly influential demographic for marketers involved in the $639 billion U.S. food and beverage market as life-long dietary habits are established during this period and brand loyalty begins. Food and beverage products manufactured and marketed specifically for children account for 4% of overall industry sales with a value of $23 billion, according to "The Kids Food and Beverage Market in the U.S., 7th Edition," a report by market research publisher Packaged Facts.
"Today's kids are more marketing savvy and nutritionally conscious than any previous generation. They have input on the foods and beverages that their parents buy for them. And as any good marketer knows, the way to develop long-term customers is to hook them early in life," says Packaged Facts research director David Sprinkle.
Yet as influential as children are, marketers must also put forth creative effort in reaching another important segment driving today's kids food and beverage market: Millennial Moms. Like generations before them, Millennial Moms' consumer behaviors are greatly influenced by their own mothers and the parenting style they experienced growing up. The Millennial Mom today was raised by the Boomer mom of yesterday. This means that the affluence that was garnered by the Boomers was lavished on their Millennial kids. The Boomer parenting style focused on building confidence, which brought about the notion that every child deserves to be heralded for participation rather than winning. As a result, the Millennial generation continues to seek out the spotlight and revel in attention. This is why social media has become such an integral component to their lives—with constant recognition by friends and instant gratification at their fingertips.
Keeping up with Millennials as early adopters of new technology and social media is a significant challenge for marketers. Technology impacts almost everything a Millennial Mom does and buys for herself and her family—from online purchasing, checking her Facebook page, or posting a photo and location on Instagram. Millennials embrace new social media quickly, as seen by the explosive growth of Pinterest and Instagram. This means that it's essential for makers and marketers of kids' food and beverage products to have a presence in these types of social media in order to have the best opportunity to reach this important demographic. However, having a presence in social media isn't enough—it's essential to engage Millennial Moms with relevant dialogue to keep them loyal and spreading the word to their social circle. To increase relevancy, marketers should consider keeping communications short and easy to understand; offer timesaving tips and products that "do good" for the family; and underscore these efforts by being authentic in both brand and product positioning.
