Welcome to the NuNaturals Stevia Giveaway! I am really excited about this giveaway because stevia is the only non-caloric sweetener I am down with. Aspartame, acesulfame K, sucralose, and all that other junk is bad. Half of them are banned in Europe, and yet America doesn't seem to care about the studies that link them to cancer. Not to mention they make you bloat like
a mother no other. Certain sugar alcohols do appear to be relatively harmless, but as far as low calorie sweeteners go, stevia is currently the best bet. It is a natural plant extract from the rebiana plant. In fact, one of my friends grows stevia and puts the leaves in her tea! Extracting the compounds from the leaves makes stevia extract far more potent and sweet, which is why it is so useful for cooking.
In my last post, I said there is no one thing that I say no to, and that is true. However, the number one thing in my diet that I do try to minimize as much as possible is
refined sugar.
Sugar is not your friend. It raises insulin levels which will increase fat storage, cause a spike and drop in energy, and mess with your other hormones, which can lead to far more serious conditions than an energy slump. On top of that, your body does not need refined sugar. All carbohydrates are composed of glucose (sugar) molecules, and your body is completely competent at breaking down the carbohydrates down into those units. Also, our bodies can convert dietary protein into carbohydrates when we need them, so carbohydrates themselves are necessary, but we do not need that much.
In this giveaway, 4 readers will win:
1 bottle of Lemon liquid stevia, 1 bottle of Orange liquid stevia, 1 bottle of Vanilla liquid stevia, and 1 box of stevia powder packets
Also, if anyone wants to order NuNaturals prodcuts online, you can use this code to get 15% off! Code: BLG0612. The code expires June 30th and there is free shipping on orders over 35$!

I use the vanilla stevia in my plain greek yogurt to make it delicious and in most of my baked goods. As for the lemon and orange flavored stevia bottles, I mainly use them for drinks, but there are several muffin recipes on this blog that utilize lemon and orange flavors. Here is some inspiration:

4. Operating System should be in control of the wireless adapter.
5. Only if the above 2 conditions are met, HP software will be able to retrieve computer's network settings.
6. HP Printers are not compatible with 5.0 GHz networks.
7. So make sure your computer is connected to the network on 2.4 GHz.
8. However, most routers supports 2.4 GHz. So you can connect the printer to the network using other setup methods if this method did not work.
9. Computer should not use a static IP address.
10. The Printer should be in HP Auto Wireless Connect mode.
11. During installation , let the printer stay in this mode for atleast two hours before detecting and connecting to a network.

BELLAIRE, Tex. — You're 11,000 feet below the surface of the earth, somewhere off the coast of West Africa. All around you are bright blue and orange bands depicting materials that were deposited layer by layer, over a hundred million years ago. You dive and spin, traveling through rock as effortlessly as a fish underwater. You are looking for oil at ChevronTexaco's 3D visualization lab in the heart of Houston oil country.
"We don't have to connect the dots any more," saidVicki Sare, who leads a team of 16 geologists and engineers specializing in 3D visualization.
In the old days, "connecting the dots" to find oil meant poring over lines drawn on two-dimensional charts that showed the rough locations of fault lines and other topographical features, providing hints about the presence of underground structures that might contain oil. Today, with a click of a mouse you can travel halfway around the world and explore massive geologic formations, grab a block of rock 20 kilometers on a side, and then zoom in to see what it holds. The journey is played out on an IMAX-like computer screen powered by a battery of high-end computers and graphics software that would make your average video gamer drool.
But you won't find one of these set-ups at your local computer store; these 3D labs don't come cheap. Neither does the extensive field data required to feed these systems. For the past decade, the oil industry has invested heavily in high-end, 3D computing to extend its reach and find more oil. And the investment is paying off, according to the "Nintendo geologists" who use these systems.
"One misplaced well costs us a lot of money," as much as $40 million in some parts of the world, said Sare. "One well that we decide not to drill," she added, "saves us money that then we can put toward one that's more economic."
But there's more than oil company profits at stake. With oil prices hitting new highs, proponents of so-called "peak oil" argue that the world may be approaching the point where production can't keep up with demand. And innovations, like 3D, are at the center of a debate over whether technology can help replace the world's known oil supplies before they are depleted.
Some of the leading proponents of this camp, including Princeton University geology professor Kenneth Deffeyes,believe that roughly half of the world's available supply of oil has been produced. As a result, he predicts that global production will peak sometime around Thanksgiving of next year. The resulting supply squeeze would send oil prices soaring.
"It's like catching bass in a pond," he said. "After you catch most of the fish, it gets harder to catch the rest."
In the meantime, oil markets have continued to bid up prices as weekly data show available production barely keeping up with demand. And "peak oil" theorists say that because there are no easy solutions, this daunting energy issue is not likely to be addressed in this year's presidential campaign.
Ironically, the issue of dependence on foreign oil has recently taken a back seat to the Iraq war in the candidates' latest speeches. The Bush administration has strongly favored policies aimed at increased production, including opening up the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge for drilling, a position Sen. John Kerry opposes. Kerry has stressed greater emphasis on conserving oil by promoting more efficient cars, homes and offices. Both candidates have backed the development of alternative fuels to replace oil. But proponents of "peak oil" argue that those alternatives won't be ready in time to head off looming oil shortages.
Draining oilfields faster?
There's no question that technology has revolutionized the oil industry — just as it has boosted the overall productivity of the U.S. economy. The use of conference-room-sized 3D labs, for example, has shorted the turnaround time for making decisions on drilling new wells. It used to take weeks — or more — to get various parties at an oil company to weigh in on a proposed drilling program. Now geologists, field experts and financial managers can get in the same room and hash out decisions together.
From the fieldBut is this technology helping expand the supply of oil that can ultimately be pulled out of the ground? Skeptics say no. They argue that recent advances are only helping the industry pull oil out of the ground faster, and that the overall pace of discovery hasn't picked up. That's one reason the debate over peak oil tends to break along generational lines, according to Matt Simmons, a Houston investment banker to the oil industry.
"The old timers basically, who are people that were schooled in the 60s and 70s," he said, "tend to be saying that all of this new technology allows you to see a lot more, but that the basics are still the basics. The new generation guys are convinced that we've totally changed the game."
"Ten years from now they're going to become obsolete," said Barton Smith, an economics professor at Rice University in Houston. "What they're moving toward is robotics -- in which you literally have submarine operations. The drilling activity all occurs at the bottom of the ocean. And these robotics will have all the capabilities of being able to fix anything down there."
Long-range communications technology is also helping to cut the cost of managing oilfields -- in some cases halfway around the world, Smith said.
"With a lot of these oilfields the trick is not just finding the oil and pulling the oil out of the ground," he said. "But the trick is then -- through vast pipelines and so forth -- getting it to some deliverable point. And those pipelines require all sorts of types of monitoring. They're going to monitor that from Houston."
Technology is even expanding the definition of oil. Vast deposits of oil shale and tar sands –- formations of oil-saturated rock and sand –- have until recently been uneconomic to produce. But as recovery methods improve, and oil prices rise, production of this so-called "synthetic" oil has increased. New technologies are also being developed to extract natural gas from coal -– which remains plentiful in the U.S.
Still, even the most ardent proponents of technology say there's no guarantee that advances will come fast enough and be applied quickly enough to head off the possibility of oil shortages in the future. But they note that most of the major increases in discovery and production in this century have been associated with major breakthroughs that open up new supplies.
"What we saw as a limitation 20 years ago is no longer a limitation now," said Sare. "So who's to say in 20 years whether our current limitations will be relevant?"

When Germany and Costa Rica kick off the World Cup in Munich on June 9, a large part of mankind will be in a state of acute expectancy. Many of these fans will also have had to make a drastic switch of identities—to national sides composed of their compatriots, and away from nearby club teams that may include none of their compatriots at all. Things were much easier when you could support your local club and, if there were players on the team good enough to play for their (and your) country, you could support them in national colors every four years, wearing the white shirt of England rather than the red of Liverpool, or Spanish red and yellow rather than Real Madrid all-white. The globalization of soccer creates something of a quadrennial psychic trauma—though one that Americans may find difficult to understand.
Although there are plenty of Latin American baseball players, and European and African basketball players, has there ever been a Major League Baseball or NBA game without a single American citizen on a team? Consider the plight of the English soccer fan. At the beginning of March, to take one random example, Fulham played Arsenal (Arsenal winning 40, thanks to another entrancing performance by Thierry Henry, a Frenchman). Three players that day were odd men out: Zat Knight, Tony Warner, and Liam Rosenior. They are actually English. The other nineteen players who started the game were foreigners—from a total of fourteen nations.
This is a poignant outcome for what may be my country's greatest single gift to mankind. Pigs' bladders were hoofed about in villages throughout England beginning in the Middle Ages, and ball-kicking games were immemorially held in English towns. English public schools played their own arcane games, with the Rugby School giving its name to a species of football from which the NFL game ultimately descends.
To escape the confusion, a group of sportsmen met at a London pub in 1863 to draw up a common code for Association Football. Before long, the gruesome Oxonian line in diminutives—"Cuppers" for a cup match and "Divvers" for a divinity exam—compressed the name from association into soccer. As A. J. P. Taylor said of this game, "By it the mark of England may well remain in the world when the rest of her influence has vanished."
At first soccer was played by amateurs, patrician and proletarian alike. In its early years the famous Football Association Challenge Cup, or FA Cup, was competed for by upper-class teams—the 1875 final was between Royal Engineers and Old Etonians—while many of the great clubs still with us began life as "works' teams," factory hands playing in their spare time. Manchester United was one such, and Arsenal was originally what its name implies: the club from the arsenal, or ordnance factory, in London.
The game quickly spread throughout Europe and then beyond, carried by English businessmen and colonial officials. Distant echoes of the game's origins are still heard far away. Inter Milan, one of the two teams in that Italian city (both of which reached the final eight of this year's European club tournament), was called "Internazionale," which distinguished it from the other club, founded and managed by expat Englishmen, even if there isn't anything very inglese about AC Milan nowadays. And while Newcastle or Spurs players call the coach "Boss," players from Spanish and Portuguese clubs still call him "Mister," a relic from the days when he would have been an English exile.
When the World Cup began, in 1930, its specific purpose was to bring together what were by then the two great centers of the game: Europe and Latin America. While the English were too snooty to take part in that first competition (held in Uruguay), or the next two either, the United States was there, even beating Belgium and Paraguay before the Argentines brought it down to earth, 6–1, in the semifinals.
But international contests were only a bit of honey on the bread and butter of club football, which used to be almost parochial. Fifty years ago most players on Italian teams were Italian, as most on English teams were English—and quite often they were hometown boys. The exceptions proved the rule. In my remote boyhood in the 1950s, Newcastle had the Robledo brothers from Chile, who were unmistakably exotics, and Manchester City had Bert Trautmann, who was a distinct oddity—a German prisoner of war who had stayed on in England, joined the club as goalkeeper, and entered the pantheon of his adopted country when he played through the 1956 FA Cup final with a broken neck.
Then the first great European team entered our lives, in the shape of Real Madrid. What distinguished the club in the late 1950s and early 1960s was that it was a team of many nations, the two greatest players being the Hungarian Ferenc Puskas and the Argentine Alfredo Di Stéfano. At that time an English club like Manchester United extended its reach no farther than the extremities of the British Isles, with the Irishman Billy Whelan playing alongside the brilliant Englishman Duncan Edwards on the wonderful young team. (Both were killed when a plane carrying the team crashed in Munich in 1958.)
The globalization of soccer since the 1960s is epitomized by two matches: one on May 25, 1967, and the other on December 26, 1999. In the first of these, Celtic of Glasgow—led by "Jinky" Johnstone, a great-hearted five-foot-four winger who died in March—beat Inter Milan to became the first British winner of the European Cup. (Scotland has always had both a separate national team and a separate domestic league from England's, and Celtic was a year ahead of Manchester United, which, in 1968, became the first English club to win the cup—with a team that was "international" only in that it included the Scotsman Denis Law and the Ulsterman George Best.)
Most or possibly all of Johnstone's teammates were Catholics, since the city was notoriously divided on sectarian lines; at the time of Celtic's victory, and for years after, Glasgow Rangers, the Protestant club, had never had a Catholic player on the team. But there was something even more remarkable about Celtic then: not only was the team entirely Scottish, it contained no player who had been born more than thirty miles from the club stadium at Parkhead.
Now fast-forward to 1999, when Chelsea, playing Southampton, became the first club in the history of the English League—formerly the First Division, now pretentiously called "the Premiership"—to field a starting team without a single English player. (On February 14, 2005, Arsenal improved on this record, fielding for the first time an entire team of foreigners, substitutes as well.)
Far from being confined to soccer, globalization affects many sports, reflecting patterns of migration and flexible definitions of nationality, though with some quite strange effects. South African and New Zealand rugby players pop up in Europe not only for clubs but for national teams, and some years ago, at Lord's, England fielded a cricket team of eleven that included three batsmen born in southern Africa and three bowlers born in the West Indies. And, in a Test match played at Mohali this March, there were two Sikh bowlers: Harbhajan Singh, playing for India, and M. S. Panesar, playing for England.
Now the story has taken more ominous turns, in national as well as in club sports. There have been cases of African track athletes suddenly turned into representatives of Arab countries, having changed names as well as nationalities. Money talks—and nowhere more than in soccer. The most unappealing aspect of the game at present is the way the rich European clubs scour Africa for talented boys of fifteen or younger and whisk them away from home, a trade with unhappy overtones. It will be gratifying to see those kids in Germany playing in their national colors for Ivory Coast, Ghana, and Angola. The day should not be far off when an African team wins the World Cup.
Plenty of Latin American countries have already won the World Cup, from Uruguay at home in the first cup in 1930 to Brazil taking its fifth in 2002 in Japan. But nowadays this is the only opportunity for fans from those countries to identify with their heroes. When the immortal Pelé helped Brazil to victory in Sweden in 1958 and in Chile in 1962, he was playing his club soccer for Santos FC—in Brazil in front of Brazilians. Now, most Latin American internationals—and almost all Brazilian players of the front rank—earn their living with European clubs. The extreme case is Villarreal, the Spanish club that was a dark horse among the final four of this year's European club cup: it has reportedly signed fourteen Argentines since 1998, and at present has six members of the Argentine national squad on its roster. And so while the World Cup is for Europeans a sharp reminder of how much of their club entertainment is provided by condottieri, for Latin Americans it is a rare chance to identify directly with their finest native sons.
Local patriotism or club loyalty is one thing, but there is nothing better than national sporting contests, especially when the underdog wins, from America beating the Soviet Union at hockey in 1980, to England taking the cricket series against Australia last summer, to Ireland beating England at rugby any time. In words too often quoted, George Orwell said that "sport is an unfailing cause of ill-will." That was not the way it felt in France eight years ago, when a "rainbow team" led by the sublime Zinedine Zidane won the World Cup and made the French feel good about themselves, at least for a while. Something like that just might happen again in Germany this summer.

David T. and Nan Wood Honeyman House
Portland, Oregon
Nan Wood Honeyman (1881-1970) was a progressive local and national leader for the Democratic party and of Prohibition reform. Her home on Prospect Drive in Portland, Oregon, was the fundamental base and backdrop for her social and political work from the 1920s to 1953. The oldest of five children, Nan was the daughter of Charles Erskin Scott Wood and Nanny Moale Smith. Nan learned progressive politics from her father, a celebrated soldier, lawyer, explorer, poet and artist. As a lawyer, C. E. S. Wood was a champion of labor and progressive reform. Among his many clients was Margaret Sanger, whom he defended when she was arrested for lecturing in Portland about birth control.
Nan attended school in Portland and at the Finch School in New York where she met life-long friend Eleanor Roosevelt, who in later years was a frequent quest at the Honeyman's Portland home. In 1907, Nan married David Taylor Honeyman, vice-president and treasurer of the largest hardware store in Portland, the Honeyman Hardware Company. Construction on their Prospect Drive home began shortly thereafter. The Colonial Revival house was designed by David's brother-in-law, David C. Lewis, a native-Oregonian architect noted for his residential work. Finished in 1908, Nan Honeyman raised three children here with her husband, where she lived for half a century.
Honeyman had a long and active political career. During the 1920s she served as president of the League of Women Voters, state and national committeewoman for the Democratic party, and was elected president of the Oregon Division of the Women's National Organization for Prohibition Reform. This group, which sought an end to prohibition, was in opposition to their vocal and powerful rival, the Woman's Christian Temperance Union. In 1933, she presided over the Constitutional Convention, which ratified the 21st Amendment repealing Prohibition (the 18th Amendment), and was elected to the Oregon House of Representatives. In 1936 she was elected to the United States House of Representatives and became the first woman to represent Oregon in Congress.
Once elected, Nan Wood Honeyman brought her daughter Judith with her to Washington, DC, while David remained in Portland to take care of the family business. During her two-year term, Honeyman was a strong supporter of the New Deal and served on the Irrigation and Reclamation Committee, the Committee on Indian Affairs, and the Rivers and Harbors Committee. Through her position on the latter committee, Honeyman supported the completion of the Bonneville Dam, was an outspoken advocate of the construction of transmission lines to carry power throughout the Pacific Northwest, promoted the development of the Port of Portland and the Columbia River as a major waterway, and worked to control pollution of that river and to protect the salmon fishing industry. Nan lost the subsequent elections of 1938 and 1940, and in 1941 filled a vacancy in the Oregon State Senate. In December of 1941, President Roosevelt nominated her for District 29 Customs Collector at Portland, a post which she held for 12 years. Following her husband's death in 1946, she continued to reside in their Prospect Drive home until 1959, when it was sold out of the family. Nan Wood Honeyman died at age 89, known as a woman of boundless energy, considerable charm and "endowed with a fine personality, unpretentious and magnetic, a woman of distinction whose interest in the problems of the day is sincere and friendly, who brings a fine intelligence to their consideration."

The health care reform legislation moving through Congress goes by several names, such as Obamacare and socialized medicine. Soon it is likely to get another: We can call it the AIG bill. This isn't a euphemism; it's the shorthand used in the Senate for the actual bill that will contain the health care legislation Washington has been working on all summer.
The AIG bill was not intended to be a health care bill when it came into this world in March. When the House passed it as H.R. 1586, it was meant to regulate the compensation of the executives of firms, like AIG, that received TARP funds. Now, though, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid may scoop out its insides and insert the health care bill.
Just in time for Halloween.
This isn't quite body-snatching—or, rather, bill-snatching. Creating a "shell bill," as it's called, is a legislative gimmick used by both parties that allows the Senate to work around the language of the Constitution (somewhat like a reverse merger in business).
Article I, Section 7, of the Constitution, also known as the origination clause, reads in part: "All bills for raising revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives." So if the Senate wants to go first, it has to find a bill that has already passed in the House and make that the vehicle for the new legislation. What usually happens is that a senator offers an amendment that is actually a whole new bill to an existing bill that the House has already approved.
The Senate is proceeding in this case because the House isn't yet ready with its health care legislation. That's partially because the House has three bills that have to be melded into one, and it takes time to make such a turducken. House leaders have also been consciously moving no faster than their Senate colleagues because they don't want to pay a penalty for going first. House leaders don't want Democrats to have to make difficult votes on controversial legislation and then get abandoned by the Senate if it never takes up a bill.
House Democrats remember when, in the early months of the Clinton administration, they reluctantly backed a proposed tax on each unit of energy consumed—the so-called BTU tax. The Senate ignored it. Republicans seized on the tax, clubbing their Democratic opponents with it as they took control of the House the following year. In the health care debate, House Democrats worry, among other things, that the Senate may not support the surcharge on wealthy Americans that the House version uses to raise revenue.
Are Democratic Senate leaders up to something sneaky by using a shell bill? The Framers might think so. The origination clause was created in the careful arrangements made to preserve and enforce the separation of powers. Members at the Constitutional Convention also wanted the power to tax in the hands of those members of the legislature who had to answer directly to the people. (Direct popular election of senators did not come until 1913.)
The House can protect its prerogatives by "blue slipping" measures the leadership does not approve of. (It's called "blue slipping" because the resolution returning the offending bill to the Senate is printed on blue paper. And, we like to think, because their Senate colleagues become sad when this is done to them.) "I do not deny their [the Senate's] right to send back a bill of a thousand pages as an amendment to our two lines," said Rep. James A. Garfield after the House had tabled a Senate bill in 1872. "But I do insist that their thousand pages must be on the subject matter of our bill."
More recently, in 2006, then-Ways and Means Chairman Bill Thomas threatened to blue-slip an immigration bill that originated in the Senate. In response, his Republican colleague in the Senate, Majority Leader Bill Frist, scraped out a bill on the Alternative Minimum Tax that had originated in the House and made it the immigration bill. In the last session, the TARP legislation was passed as a shell bill (it started out as the mental health parity bill), as was the Housing and Economic Recovery Act, which had once been a green-jobs bill.
The definition of what constitutes a "revenue bill" is still up for grabs, since the founders left the definition so vague. Over time, the courts and House custom have determined the Senate can perform this switcheroo as long as the Senate does not initiate bills whose primary purpose is raising funds for the general operation of the federal government. The House, often finding the parliamentary procedure in its interest, has objected only a little more than once a year over the last 20 years. Both Republicans and Democrats have used the trick while in the majority. Even in this season of hair-trigger umbrage, Republican Senate leadership aides aren't very worked up that Democrats are going to invoke this standard procedure.
You can, however, make the case that the dual-track approach is a part of the general hurry-up strategy that is a blow to transparency and thorough consideration. Administration and Democratic leaders have always believed that any delay in the process gives critics more time to gather strength. If the Senate were not allowed to begin debate until it received the House bill, that would extend the process a few weeks.
Some conservatives worry the shell bill might turn into a shell game. Because the shell bill started in the House, it is possible House Democratic leaders could vote on it directly after the Senate is done with its work. That would really speed up the process. There would be no House amendments, no debate about those amendments, and no conference process to reconcile House and Senate versions of the health care legislation.
When House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer was asked whether he might take this expedited approach, he ducked, refusing to rule it out, which undoubtedly made many Republicans nervous. But leadership aides in both chambers say this scenario is far-fetched. It would require House Democrats to shelve all of their ideas about health care and remove themselves from the process, which isn't going to happen. That's probably good—because then health care reform would win a name unmentionable in polite company.

Here's a song Lea Michele should cover on "Glee": The Cars' "Who's Gonna Drive You Home?" because she apparently has some difficulties behind the wheel.
According to Us Magazine, the "Glee" star was involved in a fender-bender late last night while returning home from work.
A representative for Michele released a statement saying the actress was not injured.
U.S. & World
Michele has been fond of telling an amusing anecdote about how she got into a wreck on her way to the "Glee" audition, which left her with cuts and glass in her hair while she read for the part.
"I hear you have to crash your car once in California before you can be initiated as a true L.A. resident," Michele once told New York magazine. "So for me, I don't consider it a problem. I consider it, 'Okay, good! Got that out of the way. Now I live here.'"
Last October, Michele narrowly avoided a third accident on her way to the Hollywood Reporter's Emmy Roundtable event at L.A.'s Chateau Marmont.
Maybe it's time the show invested in a driver?
