Raw Paleo and Zero Carb - right for the wrong reasons
Since the site seems to be attracting some interest from the raw crowd, I'm going to tell you what I think of the raw idea.
Much of the raw paleo discussion emphasizes the raw over the paleo. Raw modern fruit loaded with fructose is more paleo than lightly cooked meat? Not a chance.
Whether a food has been subjected to heat is more important than the macronutrients, micronutrients and antinutrients in the food? That seems absurd as an organizing principle.
We have not had time to metabolically adapt to cooking? Whether we have been eating cooked food for merely 250,000 years or millions as Richard Wrangham claims, there has been plenty of time for us to adapt to cooking. I don't find any of the arguments against cooked food convincing.
Where does the raw is better idea even come from? It seems based on analogical or simple syllogistic reasoning rather than science. It takes technology to cook, so we must be better off without cooking because other animals can't cook? There is very good evidence humans evolved in a divergent fashion from other primates. As gorillas went in the direction of vegetarianism, hominids since H. Habilis over 2 M years ago evolved to eating other animals. I believe the caloric density and efficiency of becoming predators and exploiting the fat stores of other animals allowed developmental energy to be devoted to brain growth, which in a virtuous cycle, allowed development of social organization and technology including organized hunting coordinated with gathering and cooking technology. This social and technological evolution combined with carnivory fed back into further brain growth in a positive feedback loop over (at least) hundreds of thousands of years culminating in H Sapiens.
But let's say I am wrong and cooking is only 50,000 years old. Even if that were so, where is the evidence in the present that we are not adapted to it? Unlike the case with wheat, linoleic acid and fructose, I've seen no medical evidence cooking is bad. The PaNu method is informed by science. To posit evolutionary discordance requires harm in the present, not just lack of evidence we did it back in the day.
How about refrigeration? That is less than 100 years old. I wonder how many raw paleo folks refrigerate their meat? Shall we shun refrigerators because only fresh or rotten meat is truly "paleolithic"? I say only if there is some biologically plausible medical reason to suspect refrigeration (or central heat, or laptop computers, etc..) is bad for us.
PaNu is about metabolism, not food re-enactment. Simple analogical reasoning without attempts at falsification can easily lead to the same silly emotional reasoning used by vegans like Ingrid Newkirk (a rat is a pig is a dog is a boy...)
Raw paleo is based on a completely unsupported dogma against cooking that has zero basis in biochemistry, medical science or paleoanthropology. It is based on weak analogical argument only. Positing that the core dogma is that everything should be raw and then arguing over a spectrum from raw veganism to 100% meat ignores the most fundamental elements of metabolism. Saying that butter or cream are not "paleo" because they were not consumed way back when, when these animal based sources are nearly pure animal fat is just nonsensical.
The good news is raw paleo seems to exclude wheat, non-fruit sugar and excess plant oils. I like where most of raw paleo ends up, I just don't like how they get there.
As far as the "zero carb" thing, I have the same concerns. Saying all carbs are bad, and we cannot tolerate them at all is just another unsupported dogma. Saying we don't need carbs vs making a fetish of totally avoiding them can lead you to very different places, one of which is the reasonable accusation of being cultish and unscientific - this impedes spreading the message and hence makes it harder to help non-fanatics with their health. My own diet is nearly zero carb some days but I have never claimed that that is is better than 10 or even 20% carbs. I am not saying it is not, I just don't have evidence that it is.
I eat my meat so rare it is almost raw and I eat sashimi and tuna completely raw. But not because of raw dogma, I just like it that way. I eat no potatoes or white rice or yams because I am sensitive to starch, not because I have unequivocal evidence they are bad in small quantities. I eat a VLC nearly carnivorous diet. The most important elements of this are no wheat or other grains, zero plant oils and very low fructose. Whether the carb level is 2% or 10% or even 20% with preservation of these more important parameters, I have not seen evidence there is a difference.
PaNu is often conjectural, but will always be based on science and I am constantly looking for evidence I might be wrong.
PaNu is proscriptive (don't eat that food!) because the way to the EM2 is to avoid the neolithic agents of wheat, linoleic acid and fructose, not through duplicating a particular dietary composition from the paleolithic period - there was too much variety to even do that, and much of what I read about what paleo man ate is pure conjecture if not paleofantasy.
I am fairly confident about what paleo man did not eat, however, and that makes our task much easier.
I welcome zero carbers and raw meat carnivores - you are way healthier than those on the SAD, but your will is more durable if backed by a resilient science instead of a rigid and brittle faith.

Today was our first day of school and we had such fun. The boys were SO excited about our new workbox system too and you would really have thought it was more like Christmas than school ;) They loved the way the boxes were decorated with their favorite Thomas the Tank Engine characters and then once the work inside the box was completed the engines were replaced by little happy smiley faces. Who could resist a smiley face?
The morning consisted of baking double chocolate muffins to begin the day ( a regular first day of school celebration of ours) and then on to fun things like reading, writing, coloring, math, decorating our calendars, making name cards (sounds funny since we know each other, but they requested it), phonics and my favorite new find...journaling! My boys LOVE to journal so I got them each their own journal and they are so cool. I actually want one...shhh!
It went so well and we were able to get all of our work done in the morning so there is lots of time left to play this afternoon =)
Have to take the first day of school photoMmm...muffins!
This is A's name card and it says his name, my name and HAPPY SCHOOL. How sweet!
Nicholas' has our home and his Dad's car on one side with balloons too.
Here they both are hard at work having fun.
This weekend we have also been working on our entry for the Raingutter Regata tonight for cubscouts. Here is a picture of our sailboat.

[PHP] in_array
- Date: Thu, 6 Apr 2017 03:30:41 -0500
- From: Karl DeSaulniers <karl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
- Subject: [PHP] in_array
Hello All, Hope you are all experiencing some progress with yours. Looking forward to some on mine. Have a quick question. When traversing an multidimensional array what is the proper way to detect if a value is in one of the indexes of the array? EG: Array1 = array( 0 => array("pUser" => "Customer", "pType" => "Offset", "pProduct" => "Business Cards"), 1 => array("pUser" => "Retailer", "pType" => "Offset", "pProduct" => "Flyers"), 2 => array("pUser" => "InHouse", "pType" => "Offset", "pProduct" => "Business Cards") ); So I have this array and I want to add let's say a customer -> offset -> business cards, but let's also say that there is only 1 customer is allowed to offset print at a time. How would I check for pUser, pType to see if one exists already? I was looking at in_array(), but my brain twisted when the multidimensional came into play. Not sure how to apply. Any help would be greatly appreciated. TIA. Best, Karl DeSaulniers Design Drumm http://designdrumm.com <http://designdrumm.com/>

Question for full Council from Cllr Mary Temperton
At full Council 16 July 2014, I raised concerns about the children in Bracknell Forest who care for their parents and siblings – Young Carers. They often have lower attendance and considerably lower GCSE achievement than their peers. There are 160 known Young Carers in Bracknell Forest. In the reply, their attendance figures were given […]Read more »

In the course of the 15th century, the great technological improvements in printing that took place in Europe, made possible the wide circulation of books and the mass diffusion of ideas and knowledge. From that time on, the emphasis of education left for good, the domains of listening, oral communication and rhetorical skills to rely almost exclusively on reading and writing.*Notes taken from Mortimer J. Adler : How To Speak, How To Listen (1997).
With the passing of time, the solitary activities of reading and writing have made us less and less amenable to careful listening, the enjoyment of conversing and the skills of public speaking. These ways to acquire and exchange knowledge once critical to the ancient form of education have quietly become minor practices for most of us, in the modern school system.
In this era of instant, global communication, why do so many of us feel "disconnected", lonely, and yearning for ways to genuinely reconnect with a community, neighbors, peers, and people feeling in the same way ? Has the technological era consumed that age-old practice and sense that once granted time, assurance and the abilities to listen and converse patiently for long moments with friends or strangers ? the skills often referred to as the "lost" art of conversation.
What appears clear is that a trend is now re-emerging. People of all ages are looking for opportunities of face to face conversations, exchanges of ideas and feelings with like-minded individuals. This urge to reconnect, though unequal in segments of society is slowly reviving traces of the old tradition. Unequivocally these exchanges provide the participants with a deeper sense of self-worth, satisfaction, appreciation, and empathy while developing authentic skills for verbal communication; furthermore, they tend not only to become parts of daily life but invigorate an alternative lifestyle centered on community values based on sharing, and various forms of mutual support.
Let's encourage everyone, the younger generation included, to enjoy verbal communication skills that develop self- confidence, social maturity and open up the world to more possibilities. It seems the time is just right, for that, now.

I'm really glad that Mark Waid chooses to write comics instead of attempting to dominate the world. At this point, I think my loyalty to his work surpasses that of country, family, and Macbooks, making me willing to try out any comic he's involved in regardless of my level of interest in the actual premise. Along with artist J.G. Jones (with whom Waid shares script duties), the two have managed with Strange Fruit to create a comic that resonates on multiple levels, working as an exploration of Southern racial dynamics as well as a sci-fi story that's entirely grounded thanks to J.G. Jones' painted panels. Strange Fruit takes place in early 20th century Chatterlee, Mississippi, a town that's threatened by floods thanks to recent heavy rains that will potentially breakaway the levees that protect the town from the Mississippi River. As the people of the town work to reinforce the levees and find another solution, with the aid of a black engineer sent from D.C., some of the white people in the town instead decide that it's a good a time as any to track down and kill a black man named Sonny who no longer wants to work for them. On the run from this small group of white men, who turn out to be Klan members, Sonny finds refuge with Sarah, a wealthy woman who refuses to hand over Sonny when the KKK shows up at her door. Fleeing Sarah's house, Sonny looks likely to be captured before a run-in with a muscular black man, who may or may not be an alien, turns his fate.
That's a hell of a lot going on in this issue, and it speaks highly of Waid and Jones that the story flows smoothly from beginning to end in spite of the multiple storylines going on. The key to the success of the script is that Waid and Jones establish the larger ongoing conflict the people of Chatterlee are facing then close in their focus on Sonny and his pursuers. We get the stakes of all the groups involved without the chunky exposition that's often used to get it all in concisely. Additionally, Waid and Jones do remarkable work to capture the language of the time and place, my disgust towards the racist whites further cemented by each casual use of a racial slur or condescending statement made by them. Besides Sonny, we're not provided much insight, or even names, with the other characters, but the dialogue in this issue goes a long way to show what these characters think of each other.
Jones' artwork on this comic floors me throughout. He does an exceptional job of rendering a period that's only known to him through research of historical accounts. Everything from the landscape to the vehicles and clothing go a long way to ground this story. His paintings give the already dramatic story a heightened sense of weight and importance, and he manages a great variety of facial expressions across characters. Additionally, his use of realistic shadowing makes each panel feel only a few steps removed from a photograph. In the few instances where we get hints at science fiction aspects in the comic, Jones' art allows these elements to meld nicely into the world of Mississippi and although we only get a few pages of action this issue, Jones pulls off some dynamic layouts. The standout page is when the unknown newcomer hefts a tree trunk and occupies the majority of the page, giving us a moment to admire him right before he hurls it at the KKK.
Right now I've got no idea where this story will end up. It's a complete mystery what the newcomer's intentions are, and how his presence will play into the impending flood. Waid and Jones have got me on for the long haul with this one. I could always do with seeing a few Klansmen get clobbered.
Score: 4/5

Some simple and well known exercises can be all you need to see if you are fit for your age. Or not!
1 – Push up test.
How many push-ups can you do continuously until failure? For men this is a full push up with the shoulders, knees and hips in a straight line. The tempo should be slow – 2 seconds down and two seconds up; you should go to a depth where your elbows are at 90 degrees. For women the same applies but do them from the knee. A poor score in this test means that you have low upper body strength and suffer from sarcopenia; this is the natural muscle wastage that happens to us all with ageing.
Scores: Women – aged 30-39 – 13 or above is good. Below 13 is poor. Women 40-49 – 11 reps is good, below 11 poor. Women 50-59 – 7 or above is good, below 7 is poor. Women 60-69 5 or above is good, less than 5 is poor.
Scores men: 30-39: 17 or above is good, less than 17 is poor. 40-49: 13 or above is good, less than 13 poor. 50-59: 10 or above is good, less is poor. 60-69: 8 or above is good, less than 8 is poor.
2 – Stand up sit down test.This is a simple yet one of the most functional moves there is. Using only one hand, from a cross legged position, how many times can you get up and sit down in 2 minutes? Regardless of sex, if you are under 40 you should be able to do 15. According to a Brazilian study of 2,000 people and published in the European Journal of Cardiovascular Prevention, this simple test is a strong predictor of how long you are likely to live. Those who had to use both hands or who needed to get up on both knees were 6 times more likely to die prematurely.
3 – What is your running speed? A simple but perhaps painful test. How fast can you run 1 mile? Running speed in midlife has been closely linked to the likelihood of heart disease.
1) a man is his fifties who can run a mile in 8 minutes or fewer (9 min for a woman) had a 10% lifetime risk of heart problems.
2) a man who could run a 9 minute mile (10 min 30s for a woman) had a 20% risk
3) a man who could only do a mile in more than 10 minutes (12 minutes for females) had a 30% risk.
The study concluded that the exercise that you do in your 40s has a large bearing on your health in your 80s.
3 – How far can you walk in 6 minutes?
Studies show that not only is this test an indicator of cardiovascular health, but it is also a guide to how well you will stave off aches and pains like a bad back in later life. Distances to aim for are: men and women under 60: 650-900m. men aged 60-64: 600m (women 500m). Men aged 65-69: 515m (women 460m). Men aged 70-74: 500m (women 440m).

How safe do you really feel in your home? There are a lot of different purchases that you can make to keep your home secure. Keep reading for some great tips.
Always have the locks changed when you buy a new home. There is no way to ascertain how many keys the previous owner handed out. To make sure no one else can get into your home, call a locksmith. You should also do this if your keys ever get lost.
Buy fire resistant roofing, flooring and ceiling materials. Having your home built with fire resistant materials will help safeguard your home in case it catches fire. Lowering or eliminating the risk of a fire is an extremely important home security strategy because a fire can cause extreme destruction very quickly.
You should never open your door to someone you do not know. Nowadays, people invent many stories of why they should come in. For instance, they may say they need to call a mechanic or the police. However, their true intent is to rob you. Create the rule that you just open a door to people that you expect to arrive.
Contact the local police department to find out more about the protection programs they offer. Your local police department will help you with preventive measures, inspect your home and show you how to mark your valuables so they can easily be found. Talk with local police to see if they offer these programs.
Regardless of the type of home security system you choose, be sure to have regular inspections and maintenance performed. Ask a qualified worker who specializes in security systems to take a look. There are many reason why a home security system can have problems, and it might be the weather or wild animals that cause it to malfunction. You may not know there's an issue if you can't see it.
Get to know your neighbors. Get to know other people who live next door and others in your neighborhood. Watch out for their homes, and ask them to do the same for you. Listen to gossip also. You may find out helpful information about strangers lurking around.
Trust your instincts when it comes to hiring a home security company. If the installers give you the heebie-jeebies, it's not a good sign. You should not hesitate to ask if you can work with a different representative or find a different company if you are not comfortable. You need to feel secure with the entire process.
If your home has skylights, don't neglect to secure them. Although a skylight can bring light into one's home and look good, it's also a common entrance way for burglars. Having heavy duty, reliable hardware is best when it comes to skylights.
Hide your security system's wiring. Burglars can easily cut the wires if they are visible. To provide maximum security, wiring should be laid underground or installed safely within the walls of your house. You will be much more safe.
Purchase flashlights that have good batteries, and keep them in every room in your home in case the power goes out. Flashlights are important for letting you navigate your home in the dark. Teach your children how to use the flashlights so that everyone in your household can help.
Any time you let a stranger into your home that is doing some kind of work, it is best to ask for references. A background check is also a good idea, so that you know what their criminal history looks like. You do not know if the people you hire are trustworthy, so do not give them a key to your home.
Ask your home security company about coming to your residence and creating a system that is tailored to your personal needs. Everyone has specific needs and wants when dealing with the security of their house, belongings and family. When you choose a company that pays close attention to detail in creating your home security plan, you will feel very secure.
If you plan to go away and have asked someone to get the mail, see if they will also remove fliers that may have been left at the door. Thieves have put them up in order to see if people are home to take them down. The more flyers pile up or the longer they are there, the more likely it is that the house is empty.
Find out more about the different contracts your security company offers. Each will have its own pros and some cons, too. Longer agreements may cost less per month, but you may not be able to get out of the contract if you need to. Shorter contracts have more freedom, but the monthly costs could be higher.
Inquire with your company if they allow both leases and purchases of equipment. Buying your equipment may cost more initially, however it can actually save you money over time. The cost of leasing is lower at first but adds up over time. Find out which will work best for your needs.
Avoid making the password your birth date for numeric locks. A thief can easily find this information out. Instead, make it a number which you can figure out through a math equation so you remember the equation instead of the number.
Ask the security company whether or not that have motion sensitive lighting. A lot of them have this, and they cause outside lights to come on when people approach your home. This can give you a heads up if a robbery was about to happen.
Home alarms are only valuable if they alert the police when a robbery is in progress. Some security systems have constant monitoring, so that when the alarm goes off, a call is made to the police for you. Don't rely solely on your neighbors to notify the police.
Most people know that home security is an important part of life. You might not know how to provide your home with the proper protection. Hopefully, the article has helped you see how to secure your home any time of day. Click ct electric rates and home security cameras to follow up.

Former President of Ireland and human rights activist Mary Robinson launched a new book Education for Citizenship and Diversity in Irish Contexts in Dublin on 5th February 2009.
The publication is the result is a collaborative venture between academics and practitioners in the area of education for citizenship, human rights and diversity in both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. The 18 chapters offer an engaging range of practical suggestions, conceptual frameworks, critical analyses and policy challenges from pioneers in the field of citizenship education in Ireland.
While, as the title suggests, the focus is on modern day Ireland, many of the insights in the book have global relevance and international applications. The book is co-edited by Gerry Jeffers, National University of Ireland, Maynooth and Una O'Connor, University of Ulster, Coleraine.

Tops Tips on following a Detox or Fast
A detox or fast is a great way to clean out your body from all of those harmful toxins and give your digestive system a bit of a break. For many people, avoiding the foods that you love and are used to eating on a daily basis is quite a challenge on completion in can be tempting to immediately indulge in all of those foods that you have missed. This is a bad idea and after a detox or fast you need to slowly re-introduce your body and more importantly your digestive system to food so that your body can continue to be cleansed and detoxified. Here are some tips to consider once you have finished your detox diet or fasting period.
- Eat small portions of healthy foods
- Concentrate your diet on raw foods, fruits and vegetables for maximum absorption of nutrients
- Incorporate plenty of fruit juices into your diet
- Slowly increase your portion sizes and overall daily consumption
- Chew your food properly and generally eat slowly to avoid fat consumption
- Eat coconut juice and flesh for fast energy and nutrient replacement.
Who are purification programs designed for?
Anyone with an interest in his or her own physical or mental wellbeing can benefit from a well-designed purification program. They generally are not designed for anyone in particular, although can be tailored to take into considerations am individuals health or dietary requirements. Understanding what a purification program entails is the first step to gaining an understanding of whether or not is something for you and something from which you feel you could benefit.
A purification program such as those
offered by Ananda Wellness Resort is essentially a number of practices or
methods used to cleanse the body, mind and soul. In a similar fashion to a
spring clean, in which you would give your home a thorough cleaning, purification
is something that a person can do every now and then to clear the body of
unnecessary and even potential harmful blockages and toxins. Generally it will
include a number activities or processes, some of which are focused on the
health of the body and others on the mind and soul. These will often include
some form of fasting or detoxing process and a herbal sauna, during which food
is limited to the purest and healthiest of ingredients in order to give your
body a chance to clean out the bad stuff. For the mind and soul yoga and
meditation are very popular and successful techniques.
How to Stay Healthy Long After Fasting
Going through a program of detoxification is not a guarantee of permanent good health and is only as good as the habits it helps you to develop. Take some time before and during your fast to learn about healthy habits. Years of unhealthy eating teaches the body to tolerate and even crave unhealthy foods. Fasting helps the body to reset itself and lose the unhealthy cravings, allowing you to discern actual hunger. The changes fasting brings about in the body can help you to develop lasting healthy habits.
Slow down and chew your food thoroughly. Digestion begins in the mouth, and not just by the teeth. There are enzymes in saliva that jump start the process. As much as 80% of carbohydrates and nearly a third of protein in your food can be digested before you even swallow your food, but not if you don't give the enzymes time to work.
Learn the difference between emotional cravings and actual hunger. Find other healthy ways of dealing with emotions. You will find that you feel satisfied with smaller amounts of food and overeating will make you feel tired. Learn to listen to your body's cues, or you may find yourself sliding back into overeating and other unhealthy habits. Consider keeping a journal to help you identify how your body reacts to different foods.

Generally, students aged four years old before April of the concerned academic year are enrolled into Lower Kindergarten class (LKG).
At lower Kindergarten Level, focus is progressively shifted to typical academic activities based on following specialized courses.
English: In order to enhance English communication skills of our students, we are currently using GrapeSEED English Curriculum for Lower Kindergarten class. Developed by Meysen Kidergarten in Sendai, this curriculum is being used at schools in different countries, including Japan and the US. Unlike conventional English teaching that focuses on learning grammar and vocabulary, GrapeSEED curriculum puts emphasis on listening, followed by speaking; then reading and finally writing- just like the way children learn there mother tongue. The curriculum includes text and audio-visual materials such as books, CDs and DVDs that provide the repeated exposure necessary for fluency, together with opportunity to mimic spoken English. To ensure that students learn to communicate in standard English, GrapeSEED English is taught by a native English teacher.
GrapeSEED English teaching is complemented by a regular English class taught by experienced Nepali teachers. This class imparts basic skills in the areas of reading words and writing various forms of alphabets, words and basic sentences.
Building upon the numerical skills developed in Nursery level LKG students cover the following study areas.
– Read and write numbers from 1 to 100
– Write ordinal numbers
– Read and write vowels
– Read and write consonants
– Write two two to three alphabet sentences

Introducing the Joey Swing
Any excuse! Let's face it, who can walk past a swing and not want to have a go? Any parent knows only too well how much kids love the magic of that sense of flying. How many times have you tried to sit on a swing and somehow hold your little one in your lap at the same time? Or tried to push your child from in front so you can actually see them while they're swinging?

text: Today I woke up at about 6:20 AM. We all got ready to go. We were off to Glacier National Park. We drove for awhile until we came to a town called Missula. We had an hour and a half to sort of roam the town. Cheryl, Megan, Keri and I decided on Dennys, even though Megan still had her heart set on Kentucky Fried Chicken. She gave in when she went past and could not smell the chicken because they were closed. We all ordered Grand Slam breakfasts. When we were done we all headed back to the bus. We were about 15 minutes early. We all got new seats and I sat next to Christina. We stopped at a gas station along the way and I bought a really gross popsicle. When we arrived at Glacier, Cheryl, Megan, Keri and I went up to the little town. Keri had to pick up some candy for her game. When we got back to camp we made dinner and then went back down to the little shops where Keri did her report. We went back to camp and went to bed.

This community fills a much needed void in the market because downtown Sarasota has a ton of high-end housing being developed, but there is a lack of luxury condos and townhomes under $750,000
Sarasota, FL (PRWEB) September 14, 2016
Icon Residential will be breaking ground next month on The Artisan on Main located in Downtown Sarasota. The Artisan is comprised of a collection of 37 contemporary townhomes featuring a variety of floorplans ranging from 1,800 and 2,600 square-feet, priced from the $400s.
Townhouses feature upscale appliances, spacious high ceilings, hardwood flooring, and a collection of designer finish packages to suit your individual style. Laura Gahan with Crestview Reality is the exclusive agent selling the homes and the sales office will be located at address 430 N Tamiami Trail Suite A, Sarasota, FL 34236.
The Artisan's contemporary design features light-infusing large windows, quartz countertops, private elevators, concrete block construction and offers inviting rooftop terraces where you can enjoy the Sarasota sunsets.
The Artisan is located in the Downtown area of Sarasota, right off of Main Street. The expanding downtown area is providing an updated movie theater and a high end retail space. Being centrally located downtown, residents will have access to a vibrant arts community, countless restaurants and shopping, as well as access to some of the world's best beaches, all at the foot of your doorstep.
"We specialize in developing attractively designed townhomes in desirable infill locations across the Southeast US," said Icon Residential Principal Mike Bednarski, a managing partner with the developer. "Our team's core strategy is to re-urbanize alluring neighborhoods near city centers that offer a live-work-play environment..," explained Bednarski. Exclusive agent Laura Gahan stated, "this community fills a much needed void in the market because downtown Sarasota has a ton of high-end housing being developed, but there is a lack of luxury condos and townhomes under $750,000." Laura continued, "what also makes these townhomes unique is that they are fee simple rather than condo ownership, so a young working professional couple can purchase a home with 5% down using a conforming loan at today's attractively low interest rates." The Artisan on Main is the second of Icon Residential's Downtown Sarasota townhome communities (Valencia at Rosemary Place is the other) and the first phase of units will be ready for homebuyers to move into next year.

"The Greatest Zombie Movie Ever"
by Jeff Strand
After producing three horror films that went mostly ignored on YouTube, Justin and his filmmaking buddies decide it's time to make something epic. In fact, they're going to make The Greatest Zombie Movie Ever. They may not have money or a script, but they have passion. And, after a rash text message, they also have the beautiful Alicia Howtz as the lead.
Hemmed in by a one-month timeline and a cast of uncooperative extras, but aching to fulfill Alicia's dreams, Justin must face the sad, sad truth: he may, in actuality, be producing The Worst Zombie Movie Ever.
"Do you like zombie movies?"
"The Walking Dead is my favorite show. I know it's not a movie but whatever."
"That's fine."
"I saw Norman Reedus once."
"Yeah. He was getting a few napkins from the napkin dispenser. I remember thinking. "Wow, that's Daryl Dixon from The Walking Dead, and he has to get his own napkins." I would've thought he'd have someone to get them for him."
"I guess he's down to earth."
"I guess so. And it wasn't like he spilled something. It was just in case he needed to wipe his mouth. If I ever reach that level of fame, I'm totally making somebody wipe my mouth for me."
Justin and his two friends, Gabe and Bobby decide, after several failures in filmmaking - to do something unforgettable. The Greatest Zombie Movie Ever. What could go wrong, right?
Except of your lead actress beating up your soundguy, a clown sabotaging your scenes and the camera breaking to pieces - and all of this just on the first day of shooting!
This is my first read of Strand's and the moment I read the fist line of this book (not even the actual story but like literally the first line) it had me laughing. It was such an easy and incredibly fun read and I just simply couldn't put it down (except occasionally for human needs like you know studying and stuff). The characters were incredibly relatable (especially the sleep deprivation - oh the agony!) and I liked them really much, despite their craziness and eccentricity. Four stars out of five. I can't wait to read more by Jeff Strand!

Written on: Tuesday December 4th, 2007
A journal entry from: South-East Asia, 2007
In the middle of most chilled out, beautiful Laos, lies this crazy party town on the NamSong river -full of young tourists and the resultant bars, restaurants, guest houses, riverside pubs with rope-swings and zip-lines, you name it. It is incredibly beautiful, in the lush valley surrounded by limestone karst mountains jutting up from the rice paddies. It is an area abundant in action-sports -river rafting, kayaking, or just plain tubing, rock climbing, mountain biking, eco-trekking tours. What fun. But what a contrast between the pastoral Lao lifestyle and the influx of Western party and action tourists.
We stayed in a simple little guesthouse with thatched walls and an outdoor shower/bathroom, with a great deck-restaurant overlooking the river and offering the best sunset views in town. We tubed the river, bicycled a 35km loop on rocky backroads through karst mountains and traditional villages, hiked to some amazing caves in the limestone karsts, and of course sipped BeerLao on the deck at the end of the day.
It was an enjoyable, action-packed time in laid-back, lovely Laos.
From Donna on Dec 9th, 2007
Tuuuuuube much fun!! There has been so much green in most of your pictures. I know I would love it there! I love it already.

BSR was invited to be the host and lead a break-out session at the one-day Community Organizations Development Forum (CODF) held by the U.S. Consulate General on December 6, 2012.The event gathered nearly 60 participants from nonprofits working in environmental protection, public health, labor rights, and LGBT to promoteawareness of corporate responsibility and bring together the nonprofit community – a role the U.S. Consulate General in Guangzhou has been dedicated to for several years.
The morning session focused on how new media can be used by nonprofits to increase public awareness on social or environmental issues. A famous documentary film director, Chris Paine, presented how new media, such as documentary films and website can to be increase public awareness on energy saving and Ms. Patricia Zimmerman, Professor of Ithaca College in shared a video on the traditional livelihoods of a community to help garner more public support for cultural protection.
In the afternoon, BSR lead one of four break-out sessions on Collaboration between the Public and Private Sector. Other topics included the Relationships between Nonprofits and Government and Application of New Media. Attendees brought a range of insights into these themes and brainstormed solutions for addressing the problems they encounter in these areas. Jason Ho, BSR Manager Advisory Services & CTI representing BSR at the event, believes that events such as the CODF are a valuable way to promote networking within the nonprofit community and gather and promote best practices sharing on addressing CSR in China.

Many years ago I bought an Apple Newton. This was another technology turn-on from my techie friend Terry. I even had a Newton holster. I wore it low-slung on my hip. I took notes on it and kept a calendar on it. At some point I abandoned it.
Last fall my techie friend Terry introduced me to the iPod Touch. It fit my hand so well, it was so intuitive to use, the touch screen was wonderful, there were all those cool apps, and it had built in WiFi. Oh, be still my techie heart! I thought about it for a while, and then bought one for myself for Christmas. It goes with me everywhere.
When I first got it I resisted the urge to over-indulge in apps. I picked up a few essentials, the Amazon app (free), the Wikiamo app (free), GroceryIQ, Spore (just couldn't resist), Solitaire. Mostly I used it to check my email without having to turn on my big computer and to look up things on imdb when we were watching movies and wanted to know who that actor was.
Well, since then, my app count has risen considerably. I have a number of apps for learning Japanese - we get Japanese customers in the booth at Bead & Button. I have apps for learning French. I have a few more games. I have an HP 42C app. I have knitting apps. I have a table of elements app, a conversions app, an app that will calculate how many grams/mole of a substance, a map of the moon app that shows all the Apollo landings. I have an app that keeps track of all the books that I might like to read one day (Next Read). I have the Facebook app and now I have the Kindle app.
I resisted getting any kind of e-reader for the iPod because I already had the Kindle, and the screen is just so small, but when the Kindle app came out I had to give it a try. It is very cool. The other night we were going out to dinner, so I downloaded one of my Kindle books to the iPod and tucked the iPod into my coat pocket. While we were waiting for our table I pulled out the iPod and started reading. Of course the screen is great. Color! And the page turn is an intuitive finger swipe. When I picked the Kindle up the next day and opened up the same book it synced to the spot I was reading on the iPod. Very nice.
Recently, one of my nieces posted a note on Facebook telling her friends to shuffle the songs on their iPods and then write out the first line from each of the next 20 or 30 songs. I had to chuckle at that note, you can put music on these? Wow, what a concept, and here I was thinking it was just a really cool little computer. I have actually bought a couple of albums for my iPod, but I'm still warming up to that aspect of the technology. Partly it is because I really don't like listening to music with headphones or ear buds, and partly it is because you don't get the liner notes if you don't buy the CD. I have recently invested in a high end small speaker for my iPod (a Soundwave), although it hasn't gotten much use yet.
I am going to be taking a trip in a couple of weeks that involves four days of driving. In the past I've taken a box of CDs, but maybe this time I'll just load some stuff on my iPod.

James Albert Graham was born on August 25, 1940, in the Pittsburgh suburb of Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania. He attended high school in Brandywine, Maryland. In June 1963, He received a B.A. degree in Mathematics upon graduation from Frostburg State Teachers College in Frostburg, Maryland. He is seen in a photo and written about in the book "Not Going Home Alone" by James J. Kirschke.
Military service[edit]
Prior to enlisting in the regular Marine Corps, he was a member of the U.S. Army (1955–57), the District of Columbia National Guard (1959–61), the U.S. Army Reserve (1961), and the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve (1961–63). He was discharged from the Marine Corps Reserve to accept a regular appointment in the Marine Corps, September 30, 1963.
He then attended the Officers Candidate School, Marine Corps Schools, Quantico, Virginia, and was commissioned a second lieutenant on November 1, 1963.
After completing Officer Candidate School in December, 2dLt Graham commenced naval air basic training at the Naval Air Station Pensacola, Florida. He then attended The Basic School, Marine Corps Schools, Quantico, graduating in November 1964.
In January 1965, he was transferred to the 3rd Battalion, 6th Marines, 2nd Marine Division, Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, and served consecutively as a platoon commander of Company I, Executive Officer of Headquarters and Service Company, and Commanding Officer of Company M. During this period, Lt Graham participated in the American occupation of the Dominican Republic (1965–66) to protect the lives of Americans during the uprising there from April until June 1965. While stationed at Camp Lejeune.
In November 1966, he joined the 2nd Replacement Company, Staging Battalion, Marine Corps Base, Camp Pendleton, California, for transfer to the Republic of Vietnam. Upon arrival in South Vietnam the following month, Capt Graham joined the 2nd Battalion, 5th Marines, 1st Marine Division. He first served as Commanding Officer of Company H, until January 1967, then became Commanding Officer of Company F. While in command of Company F on June 2, 1967, during Operation Union II at Quang Tin, Capt Graham chose to remain with one of his men who could not be moved due to the seriousness of his wounds, and was mortally wounded.
Captain Graham is buried in Arlington National Cemetery.
Awards and decorations[edit]

Medal of Honor citation[edit]
The President of the United States in the name of The Congress takes pride in presenting the MEDAL OF HONOR posthumously to
for service as set forth in the following CITATION:
For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty as Commanding Officer, Company F, Second Battalion, Fifth Marines, First Marine Division, in the Republic of Vietnam on 2 June 1967. During Operation UNION II, the First Battalion, Fifth Marines, consisting of Companies A and D, with Captain Graham's company attached, launched an attack against an enemy occupied position, with two companies assaulting and one in reserve. Company F, a leading company, was proceeding across a clear paddy area, one thousand meters wide, attacking toward the assigned objective, when it came under heavy fire from mortars and small arms which immediately inflicted a large number of casualties. Hardest hit by the enemy fire was the second platoon of Company F, which was pinned down in the open paddy area by intense fire from two concealed machine guns. Forming an assault unit from members of his small company headquarters, Captain Graham boldly led a fierce assault through the second platoon's position, forcing the enemy to abandon the first machine-gun position, thereby relieving some of the pressure on his second platoon and enabling evacuation of the wounded to a more secure area. Resolute to silence the second machine-gun, which continued its devastating fire, Captain Graham's small force stood steadfast in its hard won enclave. Subsequently, during the afternoon's fierce fighting, he suffered two minor wounds while personally accounting for an estimated fifteen enemy killed. With the enemy position remaining invincible upon each attempt to silence it and with their supply of ammunition exhausted, Captain Graham ordered those remaining in the small force to withdraw to friendly lines, and although knowing that he had no chance of survival, he chose to remain with one man who could not be moved due to the seriousness of his wounds. The last radio transmission from Captain Graham reported that he was being assaulted by a force of twenty-five enemy; he died while protecting himself and the wounded man he chose not to abandon. Captain Graham's actions throughout the day were a series of heroic achievements. His outstanding courage, superb leadership and indomitable fighting spirit undoubtedly saved the second platoon from annihilation and reflected great credit upon himself, the Marine Corps, and the United States Naval Service. He gallantly gave his life for his country.

First timer here at Turbo Tax, I got a new letter at IRS a second reminder that I didn't pay my dues according to their system. Before this second letter we amended and fix my mistakes through Turbo Tax system and I print out the papers signed it in and sent it on June 13. Once we receive the second letter I call IRS phone:18008290922 and asked them why I receive this second letter and they said that it's in their system that I owed them and I didn't pay my dues. I told them that we filed and amendment letter. And the man said that I have to pay my dues until my amendment process is done, I told him, how could I pay that due that I didn't owe, I just made a mistake and I amended it through Turbo Tax. And you give me penalty that I already amended. He said that it is their system,. The penalty interest is keeping higher each time they sent us the penalty papers. My question is do I have to pay it even though i didn't owe them it's just i mistake that i made the first time i used Turbo Tax.
Melanie Mecoli
Here's the bottom line.
If your originally filed return showed that you owed the IRS, that payment was due by Apr 18, 2017. Period. End of story. If you did not pay it, then it is still due. The amended return does not figure into this at this point. Since you have already received two letters, if you do not pay the amount due ASAP, there will be no third letter. instead the IRS will start placing liens on any real property you own, usually starting with your primary residence.
Amended returns are processed by hand since you have to mail them in and they can not be e-filed. It can take 8-16 weeks or longer to process the amended return, depending on it's complexity.
So I would highly suggest you go to http://www.irs.gov/directpay and pay NOW. You can deal with the aftermath later. Which aftermath you deal with is up to you; the IRS owing you a refund, or the IRS taking your house.
Yes, I agree it's not right. But that's the way it is. We have to play by their rules, or you *will* lose.

Popping a pacifier into an infant's mouth may quell cries, but it may also up the child's likelihood of developing acute otitis media (AOM), according to a paper in Pediatrics. The study included 490 children under 18 months of age who were cared for at 14 well-baby clinics. Clinics were matched for patient volume and patients' socioeconomic status. Intervention clinics distributed pamphlets on the hazards of pacifier use and instructed parents to limit pacifier use to moments when their babies were falling asleep. Control clinics did not provide instruction on pacifier use. Children cared for by intervention clinics showed a 21% drop in continuous pacifier use. What's more, the experimental cohort exhibited a 29% reduced risk of AOM, compared with controls. Youngsters in both cohorts who did not use pacifiers continuously enjoyed 33% fewer AOM episodes than did children who used pacifiers continuously.
