In addition to all this, they continue to market to EcoGeeks with an onboard computer to provide "Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, high definition video†and the usual ports for your iPod and other gadgets. Lastly, ZAP is using a special glass, which allows the windshield and other windows to provide a small amount of solar energy to the car.
So how do they do it? The ZAP-X is only slightly larger than a Prius and uses an award winning, Lotus designed all-aluminum chassis, making it very lightweight. Also, they are integrating batteries from Altairnano, who have proven their "nanotech-based batteries†in other electric vehicles.
The real key to producing such an amazing vehicle is getting people to pay for it. This is, likely, the first entirely practical electric vehicle, until you factor in the price: $60,000.
ZAP is shooting for a 2008 release, so us EcoGeeks will have some time to save up.

I'm not sure where you got 135...the range of the Zap-X should be more like 350 miles, which is a great number. Of course, it will still be limited by the fact that a lot of places don't have anywhere to fill up. However, it's a step in the right direction, and it'll work great in california, where infrastructure is already in place.

But it would have to get down under $30K before I could even start to seriously think about purchasing one. Wouldn't one of the big manufacturers be able to make it for less (economies of scale)? Why don't they approach one of the US companies that doesn't have much to show yet and enter into some sort of partnership? You could imagine Ford or Chrysler possibly being able to make something like this for about $30K.

£30k is alot of money but the spec is eignificantly better than anything else on the http://www.americanfoods.com/canadian-pharmacy-cialis-generic market i think people over here would pay it if a decent dealer and servicing network could be established - like ... said partner up with one of the ig companies - problem solved :-)
i look forward to seeing it on the roads

Special outlets will be able to charge the car in under ten minutes, but Americans like to be able to take road trips, something that will be impossible for electric cars until there are electric filling stations across the country.

I would buy one tomorrow, if I had the money, but the price is going to keep me out of the market, and I don't see many used ones coming available.

I really think that when Americans are truely presented the case that you don't have to own a gas guzzler to drive to the opposite ocean, they will realistically begin to look at electric transportation as the only logical vehicle.

Let's see how much energy it takes to go 300 miles at 60 mph. It takes approximately 20 HP (11 HP to overcome air resistance and 9 to overcome rolling resistance of the tires on the pavement) to move the Lotus Zap-X down a freeway at 60 MPH. So here's the power usage for a 300 mile trip:
Time for trip: 5 Hr (60 mph x 5 hr = 300 miles)
Total Horsepower: 20 x 5 = 100 HP-hours
1 Horsepower = 0.746 KW
Trip energy in KW = 100 HP-hr x 0.746 KW/HP = 74.6 KW-hr
Average home electrical power:
15 Amps/power socket (actually circuit breaker)
120 Volts electrical voltage
=> Average power per home outlet = 1.8 KW
Hours to replace 74.6 KW-hr energy for 300 mile trip @ 60 mph:
74.6 KW-hr/1.8 KW = 41.44 hours = 1.73 days
So, despite the implications in the Lotus Zap-X car marketing materials, you can't expect a 10 minute recharge after a 300 mile trip because your home electric system cannot supply the amount of energy used for the trip faster than 1.73 days after you plug in the car.
How much energy can you get after 10 minutes charging the viagra headaches Zap-X car and how far will that take you?
10 minutes = 1/6 hour
1/6 hr x 1.8 KW = 0.3 KW-hr
74.6/300 = 0.25 KW/mile (assuming 20 HP @ 60 mph)
=> after a 10 minute charge the car would go 1.2 miles (0.3/0.25) at 60 mph.
It takes about 1.2 HP to make the car go 30 mph
The 0.3 KW-hr charge will last (0.3 KW-hr / 0.895 KW) 0.335 h
=> At 30 mph the Zap-X will go 30 m/h * 0.335 h = 10 miles
All these distances assume steady state and don't take into account accelerating to the stated speed, which would take much more power. The horsepower estimates to go at the speeds mentioned apply to a Corvette. Even if the Lotus Zap-X uses 1/2 or even 1/4 as much horsepower to maintain the stated speeds, it still doesn't make sense for traveling any distance from home because of recharge times.
written by Thomas, April 12, 2007
written by Brett, April 12, 2007
So although their specs are thrown from regular use, I do believe it is possible to obtain the order viagra online 10 minute charge if a special charging station is used as Thomas described.
I don't know about everybody else, but my electric company (FPL) charges $0.132 per 1kWh
1kWh = $0.132
30mph = 0.746kWh
350Mi @ 30mph = 11.67h
350Mi = 8.705kW
8.705kW * ($0.132*1kWh) = $1.14906
This also assumes that you will only travel at 30mph and as Bruce also said, you don't consider acceleration and that you're traveling at a steady state. "Perfect conditions".
I don't know about everybody else but a cost of $1.14 for a full charge, even if you only get 200mi out of it, is still a great price @ $0.0057 per mile.

Your comments in compairing the car to cold fusion means that you're assuming that technology can't change the 746w/hp. Is it at all possible that the cars engines are more efficient then your calculations allow for. There are also ways of using capacitors to increase efficiency in heavy load conditions. Technology is changing my friend, and in a lot of situations the nubers just don't add up. My friend has designed a heater which can run indefinitly after a couple of days of being pluged in. He heats his whole house with them, no they don't use cold fusion, just an ingenious design. So just because you can't figure out the math, doesn't mean it's immposible. Peace out

Just imagined if your house was powered by solar energy, then the energy would be free.
For example if a compact car does 30 miles per gallon and we like it cialis online in canada it takes 15 gallons to fill, at $2.50 per gallon for gasoline that would be $37.50 to fill the tank.
30 miles per gallon times 15 gallons = 450 miles.
If you drive 120 miles everyday to work back and forth that would be 120 miles per day times 5 days= 600 miles
for 600 miles commute, you will paying $37.50 + $12.50= $50 per week. Let's say you have 4 weeks vacations, then you will work 48 weeks
$50.00 x 48 weeks = $2,400 in your pocket every single year.

at least once, makes their share of misleading statements. One is their penny per mile cost claims.
That would require 4.5-5 cent electricity, which doesn't exist anywhere in this country save overnight rates in a few places. The average cost of electricity in this country is 8.5 cents, or almost twice what they claim, and California day rates are the highest in the nation, at around 15 cents, or almost three times what they claim. As for that ten minute charge - that would only be available at public charging stations - in California they would have to charge 20 to 25 cents per kWhr, or roughly 4 to six times the costs cited by ZAP. Any ZAP claims obviously must be taken with a grain of salt. They claim 350 miles, and $60,000 sticker. But the 350 mile range is only for their high end model, which costs a lot more than $60K.
We all know that a Prius sized vehicle operating
in electric mode would obtain roughly 5 miles per kWhr, requiring a70 kwhr capacity for 350 mile. We also know that Altair batteries weigh around 28 pounds per kWhr. This battery pack would weigh
roughly 2000 pounds. Even in the unlikely event that
the car sans battery pack would weigh 1500 pounds,
that's still a total weight of 3500, a rather portly Prius, and one that cannot obtain 5 miles per kWhr.
It wouldn't be too far different in weight than the Phoenix truck that uses Altairs and gets roughly 3.5 miles per kWhr. We've all heard these false claims before from these electric car makers - Tesla first claimed 250 miles range and (stupidly) specifically guaranteed that it could be acheived regardless of terrain, traffic, A/C usage, etc., a totally nonsensical claim. We know what happened to that claim - it was reduced by 20% by the
Federal testers. Now Tesla is claiming "over 200 miles." Tesla execs also made false claims about the cost of their battery pack and are guilty of misleading customers about future battery costs as well. I'll believe a claim made by any of these mushroom companies only after an independent tester certifies them. I also note that they always want their customers to buy their products sight unseen, in advance, before the buy cialis in india first vehicle has been produced.
GM's battery integration companies have both rejected the Altairs as too heavy and not powerful enough (requiring the extra electronics for this vehicle to obtain acceleration). This holds for the Gen II Altairs as well. Altair claims they can get the exorbitant costs down, and that alone is one reason that a car like the ZAP-x is a car "in the future." They simply couldn't build one today. Or
tomorrow. Or the day after. ZAP can make all kinds of wild claims for a car that may or may not ever be built. Extreme skepticism is required for any ZAP claims. They have shown themselves to be capable of very unethical advertising with respect to the ZAP-x. Phoenix has seen the light and it's great! buy pfizer viagra online is planning a far more practical plug-in version. Even if Altair's dreams come true and they manage to produce their batteries for $500 per kWhr, the 70 kWhr battery pack
required for that 350 mile range would cost $35,000.
(That's not counting the costs of the capacitors, etc). That model is their $75,000 job, whose price is never mentioned, only its superior characteristics.
Buyer beware when it comes to small electric car makers. The have proven to be unreliable in their claims and ALWAYS misleading.

So if I have a 60 amp 220 recptical, I calculate 13.2 KW of power available to charge the battery.
But at the claim of "10 minutes" is that in fact a full charge?
Thanks for the reply.

There is no complex gas engine to maintain. That Means no oil changes, no spark plugs, no oil and breather filters, ect...
There is no complex drive train, that means no transmission maintenance, no failed transaxles, ect...
There are no friction brakes. No more $200 brake r
It does not use gasoline. The standard crossover gets about 20mpg. At todays $4/gallon that means $20K in fuel to drive 100K miles. The best I can calculate is that will be $2k in electricity for those same 100K miles.
Finally a well made electric motor lasts a very long time, and the nanosafe batteries have a 5000 recharge cycle life so can last 20 years.
So while this vehicle comes with a very high initial price it comes with a very low cost of ownership and it could easily outlast any ICE based vehicle. Also these are all very new technologies. As we have seen the early adoption price is higher as the mass production benefit has not come into play so the price would be noticeably lower in a couple of years.

The A123 systems site talks about using a second battery pack to recharge in 10 minutes to full charge. At 240V a ten minute charge would pull 875 amps so they use the second battery to trickle charge and then dump that to your vehicle.
The charging fuel stations would have a shed full of these battery packs and trickle charge them at night during off peak hours.

This concept vehicle designed by Lotus would run at least $60K with a normal gasoline engine. Adding 70 kWh of lithium-ion batteries and extremely expensive in-wheel motors and all the assorted controllers and battery management systems put it WAY past $60K.
Not a day goes by without a new tech breakthrough or the next great electric car. Most of these announcements are just that -- they never materialize. I do believe the overnight propecia major car manufacturers will have plug-in hybrids and full electric cars in the next 2-5 years. We'll be lucky to see a compact 4-seater with a 90 mph top speed and http://www.transitofvenus.org/canada-cheap-levitra 100 mile range at mainstream prices.
As for the rest, it's an enormous and expensive challenge to develop a new vehicle with leading-edge technologies. I predict we will never see the ZAP-X and certainly not at the stated price.

Construction Limits Route 400 Bus Stops Along Belt Line Road
Passengers are advised of ongoing construction along Belt Line Road in Carrollton that will restrict DART service in the area for next 18 months or more. The project is taking place on both sides of Belt Line between Hutton Drive and Jackson Street and prevents DART buses from stopping to board or drop off passengers anywhere between the two locations. Route 400 service will continue to connect with the DART Green Line at Downtown Carrollton Station, but will otherwise operate non-stop between Jackson and Hutton.
New Traffic Configuration at Belt Line Road
Various Lane Closures along I-35E in Carrollton
Various north and southbound main lanes between Valley View Lane and Sandy Lake Road/Whitlock Lane will be closed nightly from 9 p.m. until 6 a.m. through Sunday, Oct.5.
Crews will periodically close east- and westbound Whitlock Lane/Sandy Lake Road under I-35E at the frontage road nightly from 9 p.m. until 6 a.m. through Sunday, Nov. 9. Detours are as follows:
Interstate 35E HOV Lanes Permanently Closed
The I-35E north and southbound high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes between Sandy Lake Road/Whitlock Lane in Carrollton and to I-635 in Dallas are permanently closed.
U-Turn Lane at Valwood Parkway and Interstate 35E Closed Through Late 2014
The U-turn lane at Valwood Parkway from the northbound I-35E frontage road to the southbound I-35E frontage road will be closed through November 2014. Motorists will need to turn left from the signalized intersection to access the southbound I-35E frontage road.Traffic on the southbound I-35E frontage road between Whitlock Lane and Luna Road will shift to the west beginning Thursday, September 11 at 9 p.m. This shift is expected to last through late 2014.
Once finished, 35Express will feature a pair of reversible managed toll lanes that will take the place of HOV lanes. The managed lanes will be reversed each day to handle southbound traffic in the morning, and northbound traffic in the evening. The goal of the managed lanes will be to ease congestion and keep traffic flowing at an average rate of 50 mph along the corridor.
On average, nearly 7,000 vehicles per day use this five-mile stretch of HOV lanes. For more information on lane closures or the 35Express Project, visit www.35Express.org, or call 214-483-7777.

McLaren made their intentions on creating a small, stripped-out supercar clear when they announced a design contest asking students enrolled in the Royal College of Art's vehicle design course to imagine a minimalist McLaren supercar. Now, the winner of that contest has been chosen and may just be a starting point to McLaren's future model.
The McLaren JetSet designed by Marianna Merenmies uses an electric motor and uses extensive amounts of carbon fiber on the chassis, body, and wheels. The concept measures just 3.7 meters long and 1.03 meters high, and has a proposed drag coefficient of 0.20.
When asked about the future model, McLaren Design boss Frank Stephenson said: "It's about making more of less. It's our job to push automotive technology — to make the car safer, lighter, more powerful, more efficient, eco-friendly and more fun to drive."
Expect to see the new supercar launched in 2015 with an intended price of £50,000, or about $78,000 at the current exchange rates.

What is the difference between a benign tumor and a malignant one?
Hearing that you have a tumor can be very frightening. And, when the doctors use terms like benign or malignant, it can be worse because you might not know what they mean.
Malignant means cancerous. If you have a malignant tumor, you have cancer. Benign, on the other hand, means it's not cancerous. Many people say "B"enign is "B"etter. However, benign tumor can and do cause problems in many people. They can grow and cause pressure on organs or nerves, causing illness or pain so often they are removed with surgery.

Air marshal arrested for taking upskirt photos of boarding passengers
An on-duty federal air marshal was the one under scrutiny on a Southwest flight Thursday, when a fellow passenger caught him using his cell phone to take pictures up the skirts of boarding female passengers.
Adam Bartsch, 28, was arrested at the Nashville International Airport and charged with disorderly conduct, according to the Davidson County arrest affidavit. According to the affidavit, Bartsch admitted to snapping the photos after an angry passenger observed his actions, snatched the cell phone and alerted a flight attendant. Bartsch was then removed from Southwest flight 3132 to Tampa.
Nashville news station WKRN identified that angry passenger as Rey Collazo. "I just reached over with my left hand and grabbed [the phone], struggled with him a little bit, and I got the better part of the phone and twisted and hit him with my right hand between the neck and the shoulder," Collazo said.
Bartsch, who has been an air marshal for about three years, has been relieved of his duties.
"TSA does not tolerate criminal behavior," a written statement from the Transportation Safety Administration said. "The agency immediately removed this individual from his current duties and is in the process of suspending or terminating his employment. TSA continues to assist with the investigation."
Bartsch was later released on a $10,000 bond. He is set to appear in court on Nov. 14.

HHS Launches Initiative to Improve the Health of Hispanic Elders
HHS Secretary Mike Leavitt today announced an initiative to improve the health and quality of life of Hispanic elders.
The HHS initiative "Improving Hispanic Elders' Health: Community Partnerships for Evidence-Based Solutions" is designed to encourage Hispanic elders and their families to take advantage of new Medicare benefits, including prescription drug coverage, flu shots, diabetes screening and self-management, cardiovascular screening, cancer screening services and smoking cessation programs.
"This unprecedented partnership will make it easier for communities to help Hispanic elders, especially those with chronic health conditions and limited resources, to overcome barriers that impede their access to healthcare and social supports that can improve their health," Secretary Leavitt said.
Findings from the 2006 National Healthcare Disparities Report prepared by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) show that persistent and growing health disparities exist among Hispanic elders compared to the non-Hispanic white elderly population. To address this issue, AHRQ, the Administration on Aging, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Centers for Medicare & Medicare Services and the Health Resources and Services Administration are teaming up to assist local communities in developing more coordinated strategies for improving the health and well-being of Hispanic elders.
The initiative will also help Hispanic elders take advantage of a Chronic Disease Self-Management Program developed by Stanford University with funding from HHS that has proven effective in reducing the risk of chronic disease and disability among Hispanic elders.
The HHS initiative will be piloted in up to seven metropolitan areas with large Hispanic elder populations. HHS will start by convening a workshop where teams from the invited areas will learn about state-of-the-art strategies and tactics they can deploy to address disparities among their Hispanic elder populations. The teams will be comprised of representatives from local public health providers, Hispanic community organizations, aging service providers and the health care sector. The teams that appear ready to launch community-wide mobilization efforts will be invited to participate in a year-long national learning network project that will utilize Web casts, conference calls and peer-to-peer meetings to facilitate cross-site learning and innovation. The communities invited to apply for this pilot project are: Chicago, Ill., El Paso, Texas; Houston, Texas; Los Angeles, Calif.; McAllen, Texas; Miami, Fla.; New York, N.Y.; San Antonio, Texas; San Diego, Calif.
These nine areas have been invited to apply for this pilot project because of their high concentrations of Hispanic elderly as well as to ensure that there is an appropriate geographic distribution of areas across the country in the initiative. Selection of up to seven communities will be based on criteria that will be posted on the Website listed below.
Hispanics comprise the largest minority group in the United States. The number of older Hispanics is growing rapidly. By 2028, Hispanics will be the largest minority population in the 65 and over age group, reaching 7.1 million and comprising over 10 percent of the elderly population. Historically, there have been a number of financial, organizational, cultural and linguistic barriers to providing appropriate health and social services to Hispanic elders which exacerbate their growing health disparities. For example, Hispanic elders are much more likely to be hospitalized for diabetes due to poor diabetes control, and they are far less likely to receive pneumonia or flu shots or cancer screening services.
The deadline for applications is Tuesday, July 24, 2007. While any member of the proposed teams may serve as the lead, the local Area Agencies on Aging are being asked to submit the application. Area Agencies on Aging are federally designated entities responsible for area-wide planning and coordination on matters that affect the area's aging population. For more details about "Improving Hispanic Elders' Health: Community Partnerships for Evidence-Based Solutions," visit http://www.academyhealth.org/ahrq/elders.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration on Aging (AoA), works with a nationwide network of organizations and service providers to develop a comprehensive and cost-effective system of long-term care that helps elderly individuals maintain their independence and dignity in their homes and communities. For more information about the AoA, please contact: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration on Aging, Washington, D.C. 20201, Phone (202) 401-4541.

Good Ways to Add More Protein To My Breakfast?
Good Questions
Q: I've realized that it is really important for me to eat protein at breakfast, and am trying to do so every morning. For the past few months, I've usually eaten either eggs, a green smoothie with protein powder, or Greek yogurt, but I'm getting a little bored.
What are some other ways I can get protein into my morning meal (I'm not a big meat eater and am about 75% gluten free)? Any unusual, offbeat, or interesting suggestions welcome!
Sent by Carrie
Editor: Carrie, a couple popular protein-rich recipes from the archives:
• Make-Ahead Recipe: Crustless Mini-Quiches
• Low Sugar, High Protein, Dairy Free Smoothie (pictured above)
The quiches are especially great because they can be made ahead of time, and you can vary the fillings to give them seasonal flavors and interest.
Readers, any more suggestions for Carrie and her breakfasts?

I'm a fan of bean burritos- perhaps on a rice flour tortilla? You could add seitan or tempeh for some extra texture and even more protein.
Think outside the box when it comes to breakfast. Salads topped with chicken or turkey are yummy. Chicken sausages too. We will often have pork chops for breakfast or leftovers from last night's dinner.
Mollettes! (Did I spell that right?) When I have some leftover French bread, I run it under the broiler for a minute to just lightly toast, then hit it with a tinch of butter, a few spoons of black beans, chipotle Tabasco, and grated cheddar. Add whatever you like--pickled red onion and avocado cubes are my fave extras. Run it back under the broiler to heat it through and melt the cheese.
My favorite high protein breakfast smoothie:
-1 frozen banana
-low- or non-fat milk
-low- or non-fat cottage cheese
-peanut butter
-little bit of cocoa powder
...then add some pasteurized egg whites (if you add them too early, you can end up with beginnings of a meringue!).
It's filling, delicious, and you avoid protein powders, which have been shown to have some nasty stuff in them:
i like:
whole wheat english muffins with goat cheese and smoked salmon
warm quinoa with milk, maple syrup, and fruit
A big pot of lentils or quinoa that will last a few days, with eggs and/or veggies added each morning.
Homemade granola with hemp seeds and almonds to go with the yogurt.
I LOVE making breakfast quinoa... 1/2 c quinoa + 1/2 c milk + 1/2 c water with a little cinnamon cooked over the stovetop. Mix in fruit (fresh, frozen or dried), nuts, nut butters, etc!
This blog really got me into yogurt with peanut butter and a dollop of jam.
Oatmeal with peanut butter (or any nut butter and your sweetener of choice) swirled in. Try it!
Homemade rice pudding with or without egg. I substitute honey for most of the sugar and use less of it.
I also eat oatmeal with milk poured over the top and nuts w/dried fruit - sounds like quinoa would work well for this too.
Almond butter because I don't much like peanut butter and I think it tastes better.
Pb & J muffins - I've heard these work well with gluten free muffins cause the peanut butter helps keep them bound. You use a plain muffin recipe replacing some of the liquid with lots of peanut butter. Put a little dollop of jam on the top after you put them in the muffin tins.
It's not very exciting, but I'm thinking fruit dipped/smeared with peanut butter (banana, apples, etc.) or peanut butter on whole wheat english muffins.
Don't forget that eggs can have many different personalities/tastes. I usually eat a sunny-side-up egg on toast w/ cream cheese but love to eat them many other ways (although not sure how low-gluten these are):
>oven baked over rice & chopped zucchini
>scrambled w/ white cheddar cheese & spinach
>breakfast-burrito style in a wrap w/ tomatoes & jalapeños
I find eggs and low-fat cream cheese (or cottage) the best for breakfast. Have your eggs spices with some mushroom, tomatoes, onions and herbs, and your cheese with some spices, and those "dull" eggs and cheese would become a very pleasant breakfast. Yogurt is great as well, on its own, or with some fruit.
In addition, I would also think of perhaps buying some whey protein. You can make pancakes with them, boost your quaker recipes, or just enjoy a plain milk protein shake, which may be filling on its own, if you will make it with some yogurt and fruit.
My favorite breakfast is tofu oatmeal. I mash silken tofu with milk, and use this as liquid to then cook oatmeal. I use old fashioned rolled oats, and have carefully calibrated my microwave so I can cook it for 8 minutes (2 min high, stir, 2 min med, stir, etc). I can vary the flavor by adding nuts, fruit, etc My favorite is dates, walnuts, and a tiny bit of honey.
For me, this, with lots of coffee, is the most satisfying of all breakfasts.
Our home is mostly GF (my husband has Celiac disease), so breakfasts in our home consist of a lot of GF oatmeal, quinoa with cinnamon and fresh fruit (berries are great with quinoa), soy protein shakes, etc. We also make Finnish pancake once a week (usually weekends, but sometimes on Fridays) which lasts us a couple days for breakfast. We eat it with a little syrup (maple for me, cane syrup for him--I'm north, he's south) or with some candied bacon or homemade sausage (I'm not really a meat eater either, so I don't always have meat with mine). We do a lot of Greek yogurt with granola (homemade GF granola for him) and fruit and agave nectar or cane syrup. We occasionally get ourselves together enough to make breakfast burritos with black beans and panella cheese. A lot of times, we just make what we call farmer's breakfast, which is really just a scramble of hearty breakfasty things: eggs, potatoes, onion, cheese, sausage (it actually works great with veggie sausage), whatever herbs or spices you're feeling (we usually throw in some fresh thyme or parsley), something to make it spicy (sriracha is a house favorite, but we also use chile flakes or good old Texas Pete if we need a change), and a dollop of something cool like sour cream or Greek yogurt. It's a great way to use up little bits of leftovers.
On heavy protein item I remember enjoying when I was growing up was toast with smashed peas. We would just mash leftover peas with a little salt, pepper, butter, and cheese (whatever was on hand) and spread on toast.
There's a great recipe I got from The Formula book (a 40-30-30 diet book):
Cook 1/3 dry oats according to oatmeal instructions
Mix in 1/3 cottage cheese (preferably 1%-2% fat version)
Add 2 t chopped almonds, 1 t fructose, splash of milk
Mix & eat.
Another favorite is oatmeal with an egg whisked in at the end of cooking. Add a few nuts, and you'll end up with a nice dose of protein.
i'd recommend buying dry TVP and cooking it like oatmeal (either with milk, soy milk or water) with some cinnamon and sugar and perhaps a dollop of peanut butter. it tastes amazingly like oatmeal and it is super high in protein.
Perhaps you can experiment with new breakfast hummus flavors to spread on toast or have with eggs. Or maybe normal hummus flavor is delicious enough :-)
Also, if you want a new protein source for your smoothies, try silken tofu (the really soft stuff, not the extra firm stuff used for stir frys). It will blend right up and is pretty mild in flavor. Maybe some kind of ginger and mango flavor would be nice?
Tofu scramble with lots of dark leafy greens and some watery veggies like mushrooms, summer squash, or tomatoes.
Usually I have sauteed mushrooms, black kale, garlic, and a splash of tamari and lemon. Add beans or lentils of you like. Serve over sprouted seed toast, topped with hemp hearts, sesame seeds, nutritional yeast, and some sprouts, avocado, cherry tomatoes, whatever. Sauteed mushrooms+greens+healthy seeds on toast is the idea, you can use what you have/ what's in season.
This idea is definitely not the norm, but I don't like sweet foods for breakfast. Check out the recipe for Red Lentil and Brown Rice soup at 101cookbooks.com. I garnish with low-fat feta and often make it lightly curried by cooking it with turmeric, cumin and garam masala. A large pot cooked on the weekend lasts all week and quickly reheats in the microwave on weekday mornings. Sometimes I'll even top with a poached egg.
I love Ina's herbed baked eggs which are fairly quick.
And for mornings when there's more time for chopping, migas are great and Pioneer Woman's photos of cooking migas are simply inspiring.
Lentils are good source of protine. You can soak them overnight. Grind them with ginger chillis,salt and make it like panckae/crepes. It taste yumm and healthy too.
you can blend yogurt with some mango, 2 spoons of sugar - you have a mangoo smoothie ready :).
I love me some eggs, but after a while my sweet tooth kicks in and I crave something more like granola. Try my recipe for Crockpot Granola below:
It's easy to make it GF and up the protein by using milled flax seeds, extra nuts and seeds, GF oats, etc. etc. Since my recipe incorporates fruit puree, it's also really easy to customize to your tastes. I enjoy it as a high-protein breakfast, or a snack, this way:
Spoonful of organic peanut butter in the bottom of the bowl. 1/2 cup (two handfuls?) of that luscious granola on top. Then pour on some almond milk (yay, more protein!), and swirl it all around with a spoon. Just had this today, actually, and it knocked my PB lovin' socks off, so I had to share!
I've been trying to eat more protein, so along with more eggs and maple chicken sausages, my go-tos are the following:
Similar to the peanut butter shakes above, I do ice, peanut butter, some kind of sweetener (I like condensed milk) and silken tofu (milk optional, but I like it).
Muesli with yogurt. I defrost some frozen berries, sweeten a little (I use agave syrup or turbinado sugar) and add to plain nonfat yogurt, then cover with all manner of nuts, sunflower seeds, flaxseeds, coconut and perhaps grains you can tolerate (I usually include some oat bran and rolled rye, plus granola and "Heritage Flakes" from WholeFoods for crunch).
The toast with mushed peas above made me think of beans on toast, which is also one of my favorites, but perhaps too carby for your purposes...
i add protein powder to my oats (at the end only or else it will clump) and also make "protein cakes," which can be microwaved:
what does 75% gluten free mean?
Banana + silken tofu + soy milk + fage fat free yogurt + honey (or truvia) + dark cocoa powder + almond or flaxseed :)
I also like Guatemalan refried black bean + scrambled eggs with small dollop of sour cream or cheese
I'm a fan of savory breakfasts, and one of my favorites is cold tofu that I've stir-fried the night before. I usually just cube it and cook it with a little nonstick spray until brown, then deglaze the pan with soy sauce and a good dose of Sriracha. Best breakfast ever!
in a similar vein as commenters above, how about homemade pudding made with silken tofu? i've made chocolate pudding this way and it's very tasty. i personally would cut down on the sugar recommended in recipes as it's a bit too sweet for me. i wonder if you could experiment with vanilla and other flavors. might seem a bit indulgent for breakfast, but why not give it a go!
Congee is a very popular breakfast food in asian countries. 1 cup of rice will yield enough congee for a week. You can add proteins like fish, egg or chicken to it each morning as you heat it up.
One quick breakfast with protein (cold, so good for summers) is cottage cheese and fruit (I love it with pears). You could maybe add some nuts, too.
I don't know how you feel about fish (or whether you consider them "meat"), but sardines with a poached egg, yogurt, a bit of rice, and cilantro is delicious.
I am Asian American so my fav breakfasts are non-Western. You could try bean thread noodles (which cook up with just some hot water poured over the top), rice noodles, or korean sweet potato noodles with some savory broth, vegetables, and tofu. Personally, I love a big bowl of soupy noodles with veggies, rich broth, a drizzle of soy sauce and sesame oil, white pepper, and maybe an egg broken over the top if I am in the mood.
More protein? Easy answer. Eat more bacon.
I'm also in the savory breakfast group - steel-cut oats with sauteed greens (you can use leftover veggies from the night before), cooked in stock and finished with olive oil drizzled over the top is a favorite in our household. You can also add baked/fried tofu or an egg on top for an extra treat.
I also like rice mixed with a little sesame oil and soy sauce and topped with an over-easy egg.
Lots of good suggestions!
I'm a fan of savory breakfasts, but I also love smoothies. So I combined the two into breakfast soups. In a blender, I combine zucchini, spinach or other leafy greens, (basically whatever vegetable I have on hand), miso paste, warm water and salt. Voila! Okay, maybe that doesn't have enough protein, but it's nomsy.
I love muffins made with almond flour, high protein, great fat, lots of fiber =perfect storm! Elanaspantry.com has tons of recipes. I'll do a blog post with one of these recipes soon.
I see both of my ideas mentioned here, but I *love* love beans for breakfast: make a big pot over the weekend and then you can work through it for lunches and dinners and--breakfasts! Beans & toast, beans & cheese, beans & scrambled eggs--yum. (I like both sweet-ish bake-y beans and spicy taco beans for breakfast.)
Only if you eat fish: I'm reading the new Annie Murphy Paul Origins book and she mentions having sardines on buttered toast for breakfast while pregnant. I'm adventurous, and tried it yesterday with some boneless canned in tomato sauce, and it was surprisingly good! Protein plus Omega-3's, can't beat it.
Try raw rolled or steel cut oats (Oats are awesome because they have a high amount of protein for a grain), with greek yoghurt, blueberries a small scoop of protein powder and a teaspoon natural honey.
I have this 5/7 breakfasts.
How about miso soup with a scoop of brown rice, some diced tofu, scallions and quartered hard boiled egg. Another favorite is garlic fried rice with sambal sauce and a poached egg on top, or vegetarian refried beans w/ some melted cheddar cheese, salsa, avocado slices, and a poached egg on top.
Definitely avocado toast — I'm obsessed, but it appears The Kitchn readers are too. I believe there's a long post/discussion on the subject. I prefer to mash half an avocado with a drizzle of olive oil, sea salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes (sriracha if I'm feeling spicy). I usually put it on a toasted whole grain English muffin, but I'm sure you could adapt it to be gluten-free. The avocado is pretty filling. I ate it this morning, almost four hours ago, and I'm still feeling great!
Everyone seems to be suggesting that if you do oatmeal, you add in extra protein, but I think it's important to note that an 1 cup serving of oatmeal contains ~11g of protein... approximately the same as TWO hard boiled (large) eggs (~12g).
Try oatmeal with peanut butter, or avocado toast with a slice of cheese.
thanks to everyone for their comments! i didn't see the answer to my question until today, and i can't wait to try out some of these creative and delicious-sounding suggestions.
also thank you to the kitchn for posting!
It just occurred to me that for the past week I've been eating gluten free pumpkin cheesecake for breakfast - quite high in protein, I would imagine. I guessed and eyeballed everything, but to try to recreate it, I'd do the following:
The crust is about 1/3 each buckwheat, ground flaxseeds and almond meal, plus salt and sugar to taste, plus enough melted butter to hold together when you press it into your cheesecake mold.
The filling was assembled in the blender: a package of low- or nonfat cream cheese, a butternut squash (peeled, seeded and microwaved for 3 minutes and mashed - maybe 1-2 cups?), some big dollops of nonfat yogurt (or sour cream), 4-6 eggs, a generous pour of sugar and pumpkin pie spices (or just cinnamon) to taste.
I put it in the oven at 350 or so for something shy of an hour. Couldn't believe how yummy it turned out.
i throw a scrambled egg on top of about 1/4 cup of black beans almost every morning - add some hot sauce and it's SO good.
supplementing my breakfast with a slice of peanut butter toast is easy too :)
I like to keep morning simple, so I've been adding sunflower seeds to oatmeal,
putting almond butter on wholegrain toast and drinking whey (from powder) to add protein to my mornings.
My new favorite breakfast ups the ante on Greek yoghurt and tastes more like dessert. Just spoon a good portion of fat free, plain Greek yoghurt on toasted whole wheat bread or crisp bread, top with halved figs or berries, and sprinkle with almonds for extra protein or drizzle with honey if you have a sweet tooth. Actually just blogged about this! http://thesquidinkgazette.blogspot.com/2010/10/quick-tip-dessert-for-breakfast.html
i do a tofu or egg scramble with whatever veg i have on hand and wrap them in little corn tortillas. breakfast tacos!
but often, i just eat whatever's leftover from dinner for brekkie :)
My favorite breakfast lately has been this smoothie:
2 frozen bananas, chopped
1 C almond milk, give or take
2 T tahini (6 grams of protein!)
I also do a raw version with raw tahini, fresh spinach, 2 frozen bananas and water. Yum!
I add two different things to as many recipes as possible: quinoa (whole or ground to a flour) and high-protein Greek-style yogurt: and the best combination of the two is pancakes!
I've eaten quinoa for years. I just started flavoring it as a cereal with raisins, cinnamon and almond milk etc. I don't know how I waited so long to try this protein packed breakfast option. I'm also a fan of smoothies with frozen fruit and a bit of vegan protein powder.

EPD tells 14 News the exchange of counterfeit bills is a problem that comes and goes in Evansville. That's why they say it's especially important to double-check your money to make sure it's real before you spend it.
EPD Sergeant Jason Cullum says all three of those cases involved customers unknowingly trying to spend a counterfeit $20 bill at local businesses.
They say customers passed those bills to cashiers at the CVS on First Avenue and another at the Chuckles Gas Station on North Fares.
Cullum says some serial numbers on those bills did match up, so police do believe the cases are related.
"Obviously the issue with that is if somebody hands the clerk a couple of fake $20 bills and the clerk doesn't catch it, they put it into the register. The next customer may come up and make a purchase where they need change. Well now, the clerk inadvertently gives that fake money out to somebody else. When they go make their next purchase, they're unknowingly passing counterfeit money. So, it definitely creates an issue," Cullum told 14 News.
Police say whether spending or receiving money, make sure to check for tell-tale signs of counterfeit bills, such as the bill having a flat appearance or missing a watermark.

Lets hope so! I do too.Delete
This looks cute! I'm heading over to Amazon.ReplyDelete
Okay, so I have to 'fess up that I don't yet own an e-reader. *squirms sheepishly and looks away* I know, I know...how can I be a functioning human being without one (I ask myself this regularly). All I can say is, "I'm a gettin', I'm a gettin!" And then I'll be getting cool ghost stories like this little gem.ReplyDelete
Thanks ;0).Replies
Don't feel bad! I'm quite old fashioned in most aspects of my life. :) Examples: I don't own a smart phone, don't have cable, make pour over coffee, and prefer my vintage vinyl to any new music.Delete

PS- how is baby Whimsy? Sleeping through the night yet?Replies
She is doing good. On a great night she sleeps 6 hours on a not so good night she sleeps 4 hours. :) Thanks so much for asking.Delete
mmm now I'm thinking about hot apple pie with ice cream. Thanks sweetie :)ReplyDelete
Yes, how is baby whimsy and her parents doing? Hope all is well and settling in nicely :)
Oooo yes! Ice cream is the perfect companion to hot pie.Delete
She is doing great. And little by little I'm getting the swing of things and learning her. :) Thanks so much for asking.
How is your new fitness plan going? :)
I've joined a gym :)
Well, fitness was going well, and then I got really sick and couldn't go for a week. Then I adopted a puppy with a broken leg soooo.....no gym for Jenny. We are taking the puppy to the vet tomorrow and will go from there.Delete
YEA for joining the gym. How do you like it so far? Machines or classes? If you want to try a class but feel intimated (it's possible) don't. just give it a try. All those people were new once too.
Eventually baby's personality will show itself and it will be more delightful. Very happy for you. Snuggles to the baby.
Bummer! Good luck sweetie! *fingers crossed for you, your honey, and poor sweet PB*Delete
So far I'm only doing machines and easing myself in. I am SOOO out of shape from being pregnant and hibernating with my newborn :) But I'm loving it. I feel such an awesome buzz after a workout.
I've been listening to my audiobook at the gym so it helps me go into my own little world and not get intimated. :)
You're so right about how it becomes more rewarding as she evolves. I can not wait until she can hug me. Right now she smiles at me and that makes everything better.
I have kindle, I am totally off to download this. Thanks so much for sharing. Enjoy your weekend.ReplyDeleteReplies
Your welcome and thanks for visiting :)Delete

Hanbei knows what waits for him here.

And I mean kind of because I'm still really busy conquering the lands.

Thanks a lot to those who still stick with this Gorilord!
Will any of you ever be tired of bringing the same matter back to discussion?
Forget I even asked.
it's just hilarious. if you're still not read this, go to http://askmagihanbei.tumblr.com/post/31388636294/about-birthday
and one more time, FUCK YOU. even if you're my friend who was afraid to tell me that not anonymously, FUCK YOU. don't even try to make me wish to close my ask again, you will lose.
Why the fuck do I keep seeing this kind of trolling over my friend?
WHY THE FUCK DOES THE TUMBLR PEOPLE, and especially the BASARA fandom, keep being such an asses over this person.
I won't see my friend's account closed again. STOP THE BITCHING. AT LEAST YOU COULD HAVE ASKED FOR IT POLITELY.

In the days of Jeremiah, Israel's spiritual condition was much like our nation's today. God chose Jeremiah to call people to turn from sin and idolatry and return to Him. Facing unbelievable opposition, Jeremiah warned the people who wouldn't listen of God's holy wrath that would soon be poured out.
Beloved, I love to cling to promises from God's Word.
"The Times They Are A-Changin'," Bob Dylan's hit song from 1964, was right—they were changing! A generation of young "hippies" was convinced—American society was at the door to a cultural revolution. Thousands of "flower children" of the 1960s in Haight Ashbury (San Francisco) and Berkeley thought they would usher in communities of peace, love, unity, and sharing that would embarrass organizations representing traditional values (like churches).
God never changes. That's as comforting as it is sobering.
If you're in a difficult trial today my friend, if you're confronted by an enemy or if you're being seduced by your mind, by your desires, there's a key question you need to ask before you head down a path to look for answers other than down the straight and narrow path of God's Word.

Irish Working Holiday
Ireland, Australia and New Zealand have a reciprocal agreement under which each country allows young citizens from the other to fund a holiday through casual work. Each of the schemes is open to applicants aged 18-30. The schemes allow participants to work for a maximum period of six months with any one employer.
Because Australian/ New Zealand citizens do not require a visa to enter Ireland, the scheme is not based on a visa, but on a Working Holiday Authorisation. This allows a qualifying traveller to engage in casual or temporary work in Ireland without the need for a work permit.
The Authorisation must be activated within twelve months of issue or it will lapse. It is not possible to extend the period of validity of Working Holiday Authorisations, or to accept a second application from someone who has already been granted an Authorisation (whether or not they availed of it).
The current Working Holiday Authorisation is activated by arrival of the holder in Ireland. The holder is subject to normal border immigration controls upon arrival. Applicants must have sufficient funds to support themselves for at least the initial part of the holiday or in the event of failing to secure employment. The Authorisation is valid for a period not exceeding 12 months after entry into Ireland.
Here's how to make the cut for this visa:
- Be aged between 18-30 years old (up until the day before your 31st birthday).
- Be a passport holder from Australia or New Zealand.
- Have $2,500AUD/NZD in your bank account and a return ticket at the time of application, or $5,000AUD/NZD without a return ticket.
- Will not intend to undertake any formal studies.
- Have not travelled to Ireland at any other time as a working holiday maker.
When you sign up for our Irish Working Holiday Authorisation service we'll:
- Supply you with the correct application forms
- Supply you with a step by step guide on how to apply and what supporting documents you will need.
- Assist you step-by-step with completing the application form
- Review your application to ensure it is correct and complication free prior to submitting
The current Irish Embassy fee is $95AUD or $120NZD to process the application. Current processing times are approximately 3 weeks if there are no complications. By paying an additional $100AUD the Irish Embassy will process a complication free application in 5 working days.
We think it's a great idea to complete our Online Visa Assessment just to make sure you're applying for the right visa.

The online auction site says the acquisition will let it use Hunch's technology to make the shopping and selling experience a bit better for its customers.
A seemingly silly game that predicts your answers to questions based on your Twitter network is actually a look at what's next for start-up Hunch.
Hunch, a buzzy start-up that answers questions using crowdsourced recommendations, has lined up at least $10 million in funding, according to sources.
Social answer and decision-making service Hunch is now open to everyone. Should you use it?
Hunch is a new decision-helping service that asks you to answer questions to find out if you should do something. Is it worth trying out?
Caterina Fake, recently departed from Yahoo, will be joining Hunch as chief product officer. A source tells us the site is a recommendation engine.
She did Flickr. Then Hunch. Now she's launching Pinwheel.
Our beloved gadgets are turning us into a generation of hunch-backed invalids, according to the British Chiropractic Association.
Co-founder of Flickr and Hunch and an investor in companies like Etsy, Caterina Fake says she's now working on a new consumer-facing, social start-up.
Apple users are better educated than PC users. They're also more popular and make more money, according to personalised recommendations Web site The Hunch.
