Brush Away Years with Pretty Blush
"Blush makes you look young and refreshed," says Mally Roncal. And her cinnamon-bun trick is so smart.
By Mally Roncal
Back Next
Gary Lupton/Studio D
Step 3
Sweep the blush up and outward. This will lift your face and prevent the toy-soldier look you'd get if you only did the apples. Blending is important—you don't want any harsh lines.
Mally's tip: Follow the line of your cheekbone with the brush.

The Internal Revenue Service is an agency of the federal government like no other. The IRS is more powerful than the Department of Justice; it is bigger than the governments of many small countries; it is able to strike fear in the hearts of the most self-assured and upright citizen with a single phone call; and if the Congress has its way, it will become even bigger and more powerful. Under both versions of the health care legislation passed late last year by the House of Representatives and the Senate (totaling some 4,000 pages), the IRS will grow in size, budget and control. It will become in many respects, the new gatekeeper for health insurance.
Considering that the IRS admitted in its most recent annual report to the Congress that it already is overwhelmed in its ability to respond to issues and questions raised by American taxpayers, it is indeed a troubling prospect that this single government agency would be empowered to decide if a family is maintaining the appropriate, government-favored health insurance.
The IRS is able now to demolish the ability of an individual or a company to access their own monies. It can freeze your bank accounts in an instant, and keep them sealed off virtually indefinitely – forcing you to defend yourself even as the government prevents you from having access to your assets. The Service has long-enjoyed the power to find out everything it wants about your income and financial resources, under the guise of ensuring that you meet your burdens under our income tax system. By using its power to enforce income tax withholding schedules, this single agency can dictate how much of your salary you are entitled to take home.
Now, a majority of members of the Congress of the United States, purporting to "reform" and "improve" health care, are proposing to throw into the lap of this already-too powerful agency, additional powers. This would come with quite a price tag attached to it, of course. The current budget of the IRS already exceeds $12 billion; a bundle of cash spent on — and by — more than 90,200 employees of the Service. The Congressional Budget Office has estimated IRS would need up to $10 billion more to meet the demands the health care proposals would impose on it, over the next decade.
Tax considerations have long-served as the tail that wags the dog for businesses large and small; tax considerations often dictate whether a company saves or invests, hires or fires, and whether to raise or lower salaries and dividends. Similarly, families and individuals deciding whether to invest earnings, save or borrow money, or plan their estate, must carefully consider tax consequences in making those decisions. Frequent changes to the complex IRS Code, which already stretches to more than 70,000 pages, make the hurdles faced by even many tax experts formidable.
Also, under the massive legislation now being prepped for final passage and submission to President Barack Obama (waiting to proudly sign it in a huge Rose Garden ceremony), the most private information in your tax returns and your files with the IRS, would be made available to the new federal overseer of the proposed health care system. The Health Choices Administration Health Benefits Advisory Committee – with heaven knows how many employees — would have legal access to confidential tax and financial information on millions of taxpayers.
Considering past abuses by IRS employees in misusing tax information — such as detailed in lengthy, 1998 congressional hearings – greatly expanding the universe of bureaucrats privy to sensitive, personal financial information should raise the hair on the back of every taxpayer's neck.
Aside from the myriad other reasons America does not need government-mandated health care "reform," putting the IRS into the mix may be the single best reason to defeat it.

Maybe we should call it the IRx.
Does the Rx fix require mandatory participation? I can't afford it. I dropped out of my pre-med GED correspondence school after only two weeks. That's why people think I misspel alot of words. I actually spell good. The problem is that even though I only lasted two weeks in pre med, nobody can read my typing.

Hmm, here we have an agency, where you are guilty until proven otherwise, in charge of healthcare. Heck, they can't even guarantee their advice on tax preparation, much less healthcare.
Why does this sound like a bad slasher movie?
Until you can prove that bone is broken and you're in pain, take two aspirin and don't come back.

We citizens of the U.S.I.R.S.A.CO.R.N.A. want to welcome you to the biggest. government. ever.
January 18th, 2010

I'm not going to argue your entire opinion other than to make two points. One is that if Americans think many government agencies don't already have access to any information about you they want, you are deluding yourself. Legislation likes this just makes that access a bit more transparent.
Secondly, as an accountant, I can say that the only people who have had their accounts frozen by the IRS were seriously delinquent in meeting the tax burdens all other American individuals and businesses must meet. And I mean going well over a year without paying up monies that were due. One was a business client who had not been paying their payroll taxes and another a married couple who made close to $1M in annual income but apparently couldn't be bothered to spend any of that to meet their tax obligations.
If you don't want problems with the IRS, pay your darn taxes and keep things on the up and up. The tax code got complicated because lots of segments of the population did one of two things – whined that they were unfairly burdened and deserved special consideration or tried to find a way to cheat the system. Tax code is a reaction to both of those situations. Fact is, taxes are here to stay – it's not like Republicans are going to do away with taxes across the board any more than Democrats would. Accept it, plan accordingly. Not that difficult.

NO SARA–The tax codes is terribly complex and unjust that as citizens we'd have to navigate such a monstrosity of schedules and tables. How much the ordinary misses out on any tax breaks–by design I'm sure. Mr. Barr is correct.
January 18th, 2010
8:32 am
This is to SARA the Accountant…….You sound like an advertisement for the IRS, extolling their generosity in dealing with people who possibly, and will never understand the complexities of the 70,000 page tax code. The IRS is the the most dangerous, oppressive government agency ever, rivaling Russia's spy agency (can't think of the name….old age will do that to you). And yes, I am in favor of the FairTax…..it is the only way to put an end to the IRS's Mafia style tactics. Folks, we've got to stop BO's agenda….it's leading us right into the arms of socialism…..America, land of the free, doesn't want or need that…..it would destroy our way of living and all of our heritage. Please go to the polls and vote this monster out, along with Reid and Pelosi. Thank you again, Bob Barr, a Great American, for bringing these issues to our attention.

Wait a minute sara, R U saying that the IRS will not freeze the bank accounts of even one of the cronies who promptly ponies up all the monies due as long as their returns aren't phonied-up?

I'm with you, Bob Barr. I want people to be free not to have health insurance so that they can sponge off the people who do when they get sick and need care. What the heck–going to the emergency room at the hospital to get free care and letting the hospitals and doctors sock it to us insureds and the taxpayers to pay for it is what America is all about. I want my health insurance premiums to go up and up to pay for the people who would rather spend their money on new PCs and gadgets and new cars, not on some boondoggle like health insurance. I like things just the way they are. I don't even mind that one day my health insurance premiums will be half of my income. People need to be free to be irresponsible. If the rest of us want to waste our money on health insurance coverage, it's our fault.
And I want the Fair Tax, too. As the late, great Leona Helmsley said, only little people pay taxes. Let the low-income people bear most of the burden in the form of sales taxes. It isn't our fault they have to spend all that they make on necessities. The rest of us ought to be able to sock most of our income away, free of taxation. We'll give them maybe $100 in tax credit, but it's time they stepped up and paid the price for the freedom we have. The rest of us are too important to this economy to be taxed on everything we make.

The sad thing is, nobody knows that much about what this health bill will actually entail. I saw and attempted to start reading one of the first versions of the bill that was *ONLY* about 1,000 pages. Talk about confusing and wordy. There hasn't been an open debate about this, the media are not reporting who will be in charge of what, and it's all just one big clusterf— of amazing proportions.
Disgusted, to a point I understand where you're coming from, but if you think things will be better under a Government-run system–run by the same government that gives out no-bid contracts to the private companies in Iraq, and allows the printing of money at-will by a super-secret secret agency (Federal Reserve)–then I fear you'll find that things actually COULD be worse.
I'm a diabetic temporarily without insurance. I just bought insulin from Canada for a fraction of the price here in America. That doesn't speak to the efficiency of the actual administering of care under the Canadian System, it just shows that American prices are way too high.
To the degree of the increase in Government power, proportionally, at least the same degree of individual freedom will be lost.

This is to the person named Chris who can recite the Latin names of all the bones in a frog's body: If you look at all the bones in the body of Mr. Barr and most of the people who responded here to his column, you won't find one that can be described as "honestus." They don't have 'em. Mr. Barr warns that hordes of IRS employees will have access to your medical records. Of course he knows but doesn't care who has that access now. Kool-sucking nurses who glance at computer screens and tell you you're not covered and other thousands of employees of obscenely profitable insurance companies is who. The damn health care system is collapsing. Caving in. And one of the main reasons is that members — and former members, Mr. Barr — refused for years to face up to reality. It's gotta be fixed. The president's plan is a step.

This article points out another good reason to get rid of the IRS and replace it with the FairTax!
And in response to the comment from Disgusted: With the FairTax, no one will pay any sales tax on anything until they spend over the poverty level. So, low income people will not "bear most of the burden." Everyone is treated equally under the FairTax, as long as they are legal residents of the U.S. We will all receive the prebate; we will all pay the same percentage in sales tax; we will all keep our entire paycheck — no federal taxes taken out; and anyone who does not spend past the poverty level will not pay any sales tax on what they buy.

The IRS needs a huge budget because cheating on taxes has become the norm in our decaying society. Cheating–on everything–by corporations and individuals is now standard operating procedure My poor departed parents wouldn't recognize this country now.

The average profits of health insurance companies last year were under 5%. Is this the obscene profits you refer to?
This administration thinks it has to attack something regardless of the issue. In health care they chose to attack insurance companies with a hugh campaign of disinformation. On the economy, they have chosen banks. They are best when on the attack. Not so good on policy and management.
January 18th, 2010

Lisa – nowhere near as simple to enforce as you make it sound.
Now as to this IRS involvement in healthcare, let's not have that. Instead if you show up at a medical facility and don't have your healthcare, you aren't treated. If you aren't willing to pay for healthcare, you shouldn't get it. The government is apparently going to remove any legit obstacle to buying insurance so now it's up to you as an individual to actually do so.
January 18th, 2010
10:54 am
I have a contrarian view: Expand the IRS!
My logic is this: I can't afford to buy health isurance, so I won't be buying any even if Obama makes me. The IRS will then fine me for no coverage. I won't pay the fine, so the IRS will throw me in jail – where I'll get FREE healthcare!!! Long Live the IRS!!!
January 18th, 2010
10:56 am
As someone who has a relative in medical billing I can tell you that healthcare providers profit MUCH more than 5% . When you get an invoice for a checkup or medical procedure it will state would you would pay if you didn't have insurance & then beside that what your provider paid . In truth maybe your provider paid a quarter of that . Providers NEVER pay what they say they do . Its a total racket . What other industry are you openly allowed lie about what you actually paid for ones services ? Maybe the government isn't the best option for dealing with healthcare but the total unscrupulousness & lack of integrity the providers have shown makes it disgusting to champion them . I'm starting to think the best option is to just make healthcare insurance illegal . Its gotten to be to big of a burden on free enterprise & entrepreneurship .

With the FairTax, no one will pay any sales tax on anything until they spend over the poverty level. So, low income people will not "bear most of the burden." Everyone is treated equally under the FairTax, as long as they are legal residents of the U.S. We will all receive the prebate; we will all pay the same percentage in sales tax; we will all keep our entire paycheck — no federal taxes taken out; and anyone who does not spend past the poverty level will not pay any sales tax on what they buy.
So Joe Sixpack makes $40,000 a year, gets the prebate, but still needs to spend every penny he makes on taxable goods and services. Percy Worthington IV makes $1 million a year, gets the prebate, and spends $80,000 on taxable goods and services. Guess which one is getting the shaft on taxation.
And that says nothing about the 30% increase in prices as a result of the consumption tax. How's old Joe's $40,000 going to handle that? It's for sure his income won't be increasing by 30%.
I've heard and read all the sophistry, and the bottom line is still that the flat tax is a regressive tax–it hits lower-income people harder than it hits higher-income people. It exempts huge amounts of the income of the wealthiest among us. And we won't even talk about the black markets among providers and purchasers that will spring up almost immediately, in the same way that tax shelters have sprung up to benefit the wealthy under the present system.

End the income tax, don't replace it with anything, slash the federal government to the limited size noted in the constitution, and sell the IRS assets to help pay off the debt.
Simple if people care more about principles than celebrity when they vote.

Well…I trust the government a whole lot better than I do big business. I know the government will at the end of the day, protect its people.It certainly will cost me something for it though.
January 18th, 2010

Five minutes on Google, or the financial web sites will show the average profits of health insurance companies is under 5%.
Now I have never worked for an insurance company, but I have always had insurance, and have never had a problem. This is why I detest the government attack, and lies about their profitability.
I don't care if people like them or not. I do care when I hear people repeat Pelosi's lies about their obscene profits.
January 18th, 2010
11:58 am
Here is an idea. Everyone just pay 10% of what ever thier income is to the goverment for taxes. No more tax codes or tax shelters or ways to not pay taxes. You make 30K, you pay 3K in taxes. You make 250K, you pay 25K in taxes. And this applies to all income from any source. States make money from sales taxes and a 1% income tax. The goverments learn to run on this amount of money. Or am I just being to ssimplimstic?

In America all citizens are innocent until proven guilty, unless you are accused of wrong doing under the Internal Revenue Code. In the January 18, 2010 "Barr Code" Bob Barr speaks eloquently about the enormous power of this federal agency, that under the proposed healthcare legislation the IRS gets more powerful and intrusive and that this is another reason to defeat Obama Care. However, Mr. Barr does not go far enough. I agree that this terrible legislation must be defeated but also think that we should repeal the 16th Amendment to the Bill of Rights as well. The whole notion of the progressive income tax is anti-American and one of the 10 planks of the Communist Manifesto. The income tax was introduced into our country by the Woodrow Wilson Administration as in 1913. The income tax was designed to move the United States toward socialism and has been very successful in doing just that. There is an alternative to the income tax that had been introduced into the Congress called the Fait Tax, a simple tax plan that will be revenue neutral and make America an economic powerhouse again. This legislation abolishes the IRS, and that is reason enough to get behind it. The Fair Tax is the answer to many of this country's economic and social problems and it's time has come. Get on board!

Disgusted, neither Joe 6 or P.W. IV will spend every penny he makes on taxable goods and services because with the FairTax, no one starts paying the 23% sales tax until he spends past the poverty level.
And notice I said FairTax and 23% — not flat tax and 30%. It looks like we are talking about two different things. I hope you'll read about the FAIRTAX at http://www.fairtax.org

Lisa- right on with the Fair Tax! I have read both books and highly believe it would answer all tax problems. The movers and shakers who provide jobs would not be constantly penalized and demonized for making high profits/income, and could provide more to the economy-IF they so wished!!The people who need more of a "leg up" would receive money each month to cover necessary items to live on. The only taxes paid would be on items we CHOOSE to purchase. I challenge any skeptics to read the short, to the point Fair Tax books to have a true understanding of how it would work. And if you are still skeptic, there are plenty of big government, socialistic countries where you could move and experience real equality!

All well and good to find another reason why you don't like the Dems health care "reform".
However, the health care problem grew over many years which included years of Republican control of the house, senate, and White House. They did NOTHING. Yep, that's right: NOTHING. They didn't even get tort reform in the years when they controlled house, senate, and White House!!!!
Now that there is someone doing something, the most the Publs have contributed is to "just say no" to just about anything the Dems propose.
Health care costs are killing business and jobs: costs more than doubled while median incomes declined. Lack of health insurane is killing people. The US is no longer first in measures of the health of its people. We have a broken system, folks.
I would rather have the something frow the Dems than the nothing the Pubs have given.

"As someone who has a relative in medical billing I can tell you that healthcare providers profit MUCH more than 5%………….."
You need to go on-line and read an annual report from a publicly held insurance company. They may make more than 5% on a given procedure, but at the end of the accounting year, which is what is important, the corporation as a whole makes a nickel on every dollar of revenue. That's 5% profit. Would you run a business with that margin?
I thought not.

I'm lying to everyone of my customers about every doctors visit or procedure I have contracted so I can make 5 percent profit ? LOL !! No I wouldn't run a business like that . Does it matter what your balance sheet says when you fudge all of your expenses ? Why spend money on marketing & advertising when you are futility only going to make 5% . Why pay your CEO several million dollars when you are only going to make 5 % ? Why have claims managers that are bonused on not paying claims so you can only make 5% profit ? I understand why people think that the government shouldn't play a role in healthcare but naturally neither should a shareholder . There has to be a happy medium . If not lets just outlaw health insurance . That would atleast bring down prices .

To President Obama and all 535 voting members of the Legislature,
It is now official you are ALL corrupt morons:
The U.S.. Post Service was established in 1775. You have had 234 years to get it right and it is broke.
Social Security was established in 1935. You have had 74 years to get it right and it is broke.
Fannie Mae was established in 1938. You have had 71 years to get it right and it is broke.
War on Poverty started in 1964. You have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor" and they only want more.
Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have had 44 years to get it right and they are broke.
Freddie Mac was established in 1970. You have had 39 years to get it right and it is broke.
The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before. You had 32 years to get it right and it is an abysmal failure.
You have FAILED in every "government service" you have shoved down our throats while overspending our tax dollars

Most of you neocons have to quit drinking at the trough of Glenn & Rush! Those two, and others like them, serve the same purpose for the Republicans that Goebbels did for Hitler's Nazi Party. You all talk about "socialism" as if you had any idea of what it is. I have lived in a foreign country with "socialized" medicine, and I can tell you that it beats our system any day of week and twice on Sunday! There are some things about which we have to be apolitical and think about what is best for our entire country and citizenry. Stop banging your bibles, maybe, and start acting accordingly! You are against everything that would be better for you and everyone else because of what those Fox News fools are spewing. Read more on all lissues from all sides and learn to think independently.

All you Fairtax lemmings – if the IRS doesn't exist, who will make sure businesses turn over the correct amount of Fairtax to the government? The individual states? Laughable. Most state taxation departments can't get out of their own way. Quit kidding yourselves, there will ALWAYS be a federal enforcement arm around, because it doesn't matter what the system is called, greedy people will try to cheat it.
And Sara is right. You have to REPEATEDLY ignore the IRS before they will consider freezing a bank account. And before they do, they will send you MULTIPLE certified notices of their intent, and offer plenty of opportunity to contest it. You folks need to quit listening to the scammers on the TV commercials.

Hey Grumpy, go read at Fairtax.org, you might learn something. And what kind of lemming are you, do you think it takes 70,000 pages of tax code to be fair? NOT, so you must be heading over the cliff if you like what we have and believe it is fair…

Ref: Hard Right Hook @ 09:48 and Zeke @ 10:20
HRH – You suggest that a flat consumption tax is fair. It is fair only in so much as everyone's consumption is taxed at the same rate. But it is highly regressive if you look at how it would affect people at different income levels. Let's take a person making $30,000 a year. He consumes everything just to pay for housing, food, gas, etc. So he is taxed on his entire income. Compare that to someone making $250,000 who is prudent and even though he does afford himself a nice house, better food, vacations, etc., he only uses $150,000 of his income. So he is taxed on 60% of his income. The other 40% he can save, invest, etc.
Let's assume a consumption tax is 20% -
The effective tax rate on the guy making $30,000 is 20%
The effective tax rate on the guy making $250,000 is 12%
In my book that is not fair.
Zeke @ 10:20
All the departments you name are constitutional
- IRS – Congress has the power to raise and collect taxes. There must be some means of collecting the taxes even if you had a consumption tax.
- Dept of Education/EPA fall under the broad definition of "providing for the general welfare"
- Dept of Justice – President's duties include ensuring the laws are faithfully executed (whether or not you think they are or are not being executed is another matter)
I'm not saying there couldn't be improvements in the way agencies are run, finding economies of scale, etc. but to suggest these are unconstitutional is an opinion that has never been agreed by the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court, under the early precedent of Marbury v. Madison, established that they determine what is Constitutional and what is not.

This Administration and the Democrats have had a hissy fit over Gitmo and the rights of terrorists, yet they have no aversion whatsoever to allowing the IRS to trample the rights of American Taxpayers by giving them more authority. A terrorists with a bomb in his underwear has more protection afforded him to safeguard what they've determined to be his "rights" by the Obama Administration than we taxpayers. What's wrong with this scenario? This Administration and the Democrats are willing to spend $250 million of our tax monies to bring an admitted and confessed terrorist from Gitmo in order to try him in New York City because they argue he has "legal rights" yet the IRS goes about its business of seizing assets without due process and this group of Civil Libertarians rather than thwart them gives them more power and authority? Trample us but protect the terrorists. God help us all!!!

Yes, up is down and down is up…started by W where unprovoked war = security and peace, etc.
If you read through the blog you will see several posting from people that are in tax that dispute Bob's claims. I worked with the IRS when I was a law student in a tax clinic and found the processes and procedures fair. They don't levy on property, wages, etc. until you have had multiple, multiple opportunities to dispute and establish why you don't owe or owe different from the IRS calculations.
As to your claims about cost of trials, etc. Yes, if we are to be a nation of laws we have to recognize there are costs associated with that principle. I haven't seen your quoted $250M figure in any reliable press but the value of standing for the idea that a person is entitled to a fair trial cannot be measured in dollars and cents, especially when we are fighting an ideological struggle. It is very important that we demonstrate that we are not afraid for our system of justice to try the worst of the worst. Unless we, in the form of the prosecution, mess up, he will be convicted and sentenced to a very safe and secure tiny room for the remainder of his natural life.

"Does it matter what your balance sheet says when you fudge all of your expenses?"
Fudging on expenses is called fraud, and should be caught by GAAP and the audit.
I really don't care how much they pay the CEO; the Corporation is beholding to the policy holders and the share holders. And as tighly regulated as the insurance industry already is, I cannot see how the "evil insurnace companies" could continually get away with fraud when the Insurance Commissioner and his mignions are constantly looking over their shoulder.

For Tomorrow's Lunch: 10 Grain & Legume Basics to Cook Tonight
Thinking about lunch tomorrow or next week? Wondering what you're going to eat? Here are ten make-ahead grains, legumes, and other basics that can serve as the base for a great lunch. From brown rice to sweet potatoes, think about making one or two tonight to serve as your lunch tomorrow!
Each of these foods is very simple to make the night before, and each lasts well. Most of these are also fairly nutritious, and a lot of them are high in fiber and whole grain yumminess.
So start a batch of one of these before you eat dinner; it often involves nothing more than boiling water.
• 1. Brown Rice - This is my own personal favorite for lunches. Short-grain brown rice is so nutty and stays so soft and tender, even in the fridge. Warm it up with some sesame oil and almonds — delicious!
• 2. Quinoa - Nutritious and nutty. Top with some shredded chicken or a few tomato slices.
• 3. Lentils - Lentils make a great base for lunch. I especially like them topped with a poached egg or some bacon.
• 4. Sweet Potato - Roast a sweet potato and take it to work with some cooked greens and a dollop of yogurt.
• 5. Beans - Cook a batch of beans tonight and they'll last all week!
• 6. Butternut Squash - This is another really delicious yet often overlooked meal basic. If you roast a bunch of squash cubes, they make a great lunch base. Toss with greens, or some leftover pork.
• 7. White Rice - I don't like white rice as much as brown rice, but if you're making some rice anyway for dinner, make an extra cup and eat it for lunch!
• 8. Mashed Potatoes - Mashed potatoes are so delicious and comforting when reheated at work! Top with some extra melted cheese.
• 9. Polenta - Make a little extra polenta; it lasts well in the fridge. It needs a little stirring and extra liquid when you heat it up. You can also pour hot polenta into a baking sheet and let it cool. Slice and serve in squares; this makes for great lunches.
• 10. Oatmeal - Oatmeal? For lunch? Why yes! Steel cut oats are so filling and hearty, and they reheat splendidly. Make your morning batch a little larger, and eat them for lunch. Here's how to cook steel cut oats. .
Do you have any basics like this that you cook ahead for lunches?

I love making things on Sunday that can last the whole week. If I make one thing on Sunday that can give me 2-3 lunches during the week I am a happy camper! The other 2-3 days I simply eat leftovers and possibly grab a quick and cheap lunch with a coworker for 1 day. Great tips!
oh my god, so much carbs in this article, what do you do in this case if you are on a strict diet that won't let you eat that much starchy food as bases?
I'd appreciate suggestions for those of us who can't eat grains or legumes.
This afternoon I'm cooking up just a pile of chickpeas for dinner and for lunch (and maybe dinner again) tomorrow.
@gussiebuns - Lentils and quinoa are super high in protein, those might be good options for you.
Also, @slowcrafted - It helps if you mention what exactly the problem is: Allergy? Medical condition? Self-imposed dietary restriction? There are a couple options on the list that aren't either of those things - Potatoes, sweet potatoes and squash. You could do beets, turnips, or other tubers.
caseoftornados, I'm diabetic. A combination of medication and fewer than 50g of carbs a day keep me in check; turnips, green veg, and the rare sweet potato are about all I can tolerate.
Apart from my own dietary restrictions, most prep-ahead suggestions tend to be heavily weighted toward grains and legumes, so alternates interest me in terms of seeing what else is out there.
slowcrafted: I don't limit my carbs, but some easy meals I eat for lunch that are naturally lower in carbs are leftover boneless chicken thigh/breast (I like it cold) with cut up veggies and a piece of fruit, cottage cheese with sliced cucumbers, grape tomatoes and cracked black pepper and sea salt (admittedly, I often eat this with a few crackers or tortilla chips - I don't know if there are any low-carb options for these on the market), leftover stirfried veggies with a poached egg on top, and one of my favorites, homemade veggie soup with some chicken or turkey sausage. Hope this helps!
Mashed potatoes and corn is a great lunch.
@slowcrafted, have you seen crackers made from nuts? Probably at health food stores. I have a friend with celiac disease, and those are a lifesaver for her. Some pecan, some almond...all delicious.
2 cups water, 1/2 cup lentils, 1/2 cup brown rice, 1 tsp. salt, cooked together about 45 minutes. This makes 3 or 4 lunches for me. Each day I add a chopped tomato, and maybe some other leftover veggies, to that day's portion, add a spice--chili powder or za'atar are current faves--and nuke at lunchtime.
We always have the following cooked and frozen: brown rice, quinoa, chickpeas, beans, and steel cut oatmeal. Makes cooking for a busy house so much easier.
If you have brown rice, cooked sweet potatoes and cooked squash on hand, they are so great added to a green salad w/balsamic dressing.
I pack warm lunch for my 9 year old every day, because school lunch is just foodlike substance. I bought a Ms Bento thermos for him that has 3 compartments and keeps his lunch warm enough (not hot). I freeze almost everything in small 12oz glass Pyrex containers that comes with a plastic lid, microwave the food in the AM in the glass , and fill the Bento (plastic)with it. We made a menu together that we don't stricktly follow, but gives me ideas. Here are a few things I have in my freezer for him in small portions:
Beef stew with rice, home made meaty spagetti sauce w pasta, hungarian bean gulyas, home made tomato soup, chicken paprikas with spatzle, minestrone soup, bison soup with veggies, red wine braised lamb shanks, spinach and cheese filled tortellini. Other things we pack: crepes with sweet cheese filling, leftover chinese, fresh cooked pasta with grated walnuts sweetened with vanilla sugar, stir fried chicken breast with whatever veggies are handy, cucumber salad with a sandwich, pulled pork with a bun on the side. He loves it and he gets a lot of attention at school. All it takes is keep saving food on the weekends. I am a doctor with a busy schedule, so if I can cook and pack, you can too.
@Johanna33 What yummy lunch ideas!
Great stuff Johanna33, your post really generates ideas in my head for my family.
When I used to cook for just me, pasta was always a staple. You can top it with different sauces, vegetables, or even add it to soup or beans.
slowcrafted, have you tried mashed cauliflower? It's super low-carb yet just as comforting as potatoes! Just steam a head of cauli with a clove or two of garlic and puree/mash with salt, pepper, and olive oil. It would probably keep for a few days in the fridge, or you could freeze individual portions and pull out one when you need it.
I like salads when hot...we usually have a big vegetable salad every day and especially big in summer when our garden is busy. As I am making that I just fill another serving size bowl for me and set that aside in fridge. Next morning I add tomato, feta, olives, eggs, what ever juicy things I don't put in salad ahead of time. Sometimes some tuna. un-bacon bits, sunflower seeds, chow mein noodles, all are good. I have bottles of dressing in the work refrigerator.
When the weather is cool I start making soup so I will bring in a couple quart containers of chili or minestrone or lentil etc and we have dishes in the lunchroom so any one wants a bowl can just heat in the microwave. We also always have bagels, crackers, peanut butter and jams, cream cheese, mustard and mayo etc. stocked in the fridge. We run a small business and employees can help themselves to what they want. Nice on days when we are extra busy.
I used to live close enough to work to go home and fix my lunch during my break. But now I don't, and I've been miserable at planning and taking the time to pack my lunches, even though I would prefer to for both budget and healths-sake. I've been spending too much money on food with no quality because of it. This article and the comments have inspired me! Tonight I am going to plan lunches for the rest of the week! Thanks all!

7 ways to save on gasoline
If you can't give up your car, take some simple steps to reduce how much gas you use and how much you pay for it.
This post comes from Jim Wang at partner site U.S. News & World Report.
When thinking about ourselves as egalitarian agents of environmental and climate change, it is too easy to think that our automotive needs take precedence over everyone else's. While you may think you have a special case for driving a huge SUV on your 45-minute commute to work, all others on the road think the same thing about driving their huge SUVs.
Most bloggers suggest that you add carpooling or public transportation to your commute to save money on gas and help the environment. While that is altruistic advice, there is little chance you will be willing to give up your freedom of the road. Here are some ways you can start conserving gas and saving money on your commute:
Combine trips. One of the most draining things you do to your gas tank is start the car. Because of the time it takes to get all of the mechanical, electronic and automatic systems heated and up to speed, your car is not optimizing its fuel use. Instead of stopping at home between errands, make an itinerary before you leave. Visit the bank to get cash, Target to buy laundry detergent, then the grocery store last to avoid spoiled food.
Use the right gas. A lot of people think high-octane gas is better than lower-octane gas because it's labeled "premium." Premium is better than regular, right? In reality, octane simply refers to how much the fuel can be compressed before it combusts. High octane means it can be compressed more. Only buy the expensive stuff if your car requires it.
Cash-back credit cards. If you are going to drive yourself to work, buck up and face the reality that a portion of your paycheck will go to the gas station. Many large gas companies offer their own credit cards for exclusive use at their stations. Big banks also offer their own lines of credit for cash back at the pump and allow you to use their services no matter which station you choose. Post continues below.Lose the extra baggage. A couple of lawn chairs, a cooler and a wet blanket from the Jimmy Buffett concert are still taking up space in your trunk. It's December and you saw him in late July. Whether you like Jimmy Buffett or not, you probably have some unused items taking up space in your trunk and backseat. Simple physics states that the heavier an object, the more energy it will take to move it. Clean out your vehicle and save money on gas.
Change your oil. Most people don't consider their oil as playing a major factor in fuel conservation. By choosing the correct blend -- according to your vehicle's owner's manual -- you can add substance-removing additives to your engine, increase lubrication performance and reduce the amount of gas you need.
The early bird gets the petrol. Most people think that filling up when the weather is cold will give them a savings advantage. While this is half true, barely, it is only part of the story. Gas chains decide to change prices closer to noon more than at any other time of day. While the morning may be frosty, the weather has negligible effects on your pump. But getting in before the price changes could save you some money.
Purchase gas anywhere. You might think that large oil companies such as BP, Shell and Exxon-Mobile charge the highest prices on gas because they can. What most don't realize is that smaller, locally run stations actually have to charge just as much to stay competitive and not run out of their supply. If you are really looking for a cheap gas fix, turn to websites such as GasPriceWatch and apps such as GasBuddy to find the best deals in your area.
While none of these tips are guaranteed silver bullets to eliminate your pain at the pump, combined, they work like a team to save you trips to the gas station. If you are still unsure about saving money on gas, speak to your dealer or mechanic to find out what methods work best for your vehicle.

SANTA FE, N.M. — Parents of public school students have sued the state to increase funding for education and target more assistance to disadvantaged students who are living in poverty or learning English.
The lawsuit was announced Thursday by the New Mexico Center on Law and Poverty, which filed the case a day earlier with a Gallup lawyer on behalf of parents of students in the Albuquerque and Gallup-McKinley school districts.
The lawsuit contends the state is inadequately funding schools in violation of the New Mexico Constitution's requirement to provide an equitable and "sufficient" education for all children.
If the lawsuit is successful, the state could be forced to come up with hundreds of millions of tax dollars for schools. A study in 2008 concluded that New Mexico was underfunding schools by as much as 15 percent or more than $300 million at the time.
"Public school education in New Mexico is in crisis," the lawsuit said. "New Mexico's students rank at the very bottom in the country in educational achievement."
The Public Education Department, which is under the control of Republican Gov. Susana Martinez, was named as the defendant.
Larry Behrens, a spokesman for the department, said the agency hadn't seen the lawsuit and couldn't comment on it.
But Behrens said the governor has signed budgets approved by the Legislature to increase spending on public schools since taking office in 2011.
"During that time student achievement results, including graduation rates among our Native American students, have increased significantly," Behrens said in a statement. "We absolutely know every student in our state has potential for greatness and the fight to reform our schools is a testament to our faith in New Mexico's children."
Martinez, who is seeking re-election this year, has battled with Democrats in the Legislature and educational unions over her school initiatives, including a proposal to hold back third-graders who can't adequately read.
New Mexico is spending nearly $2.6 billion on schools this year.
But the lawsuit, which was filed in district court in Gallup, said public schools' share of the budget has declined over the past 30 years while student performance on standards-based tests has lagged behind children in most other states.
New Mexico tied with Mississippi in 2013 for the lowest ranking for the portion of 4th-graders who couldn't read proficiently, according to the lawsuit.
New Mexico provides most of the money for public school operations, unlike some other states that rely on local communities to help finance their schools. New Mexico distributes most of its aid to the state's 89 school districts through a formula that's supposed to equalize funding and account for differences in the cost of educating various students, including those with learning disabilities.
Martinez has recently pushed to allocate more money outside of the school-finance formula for educational programs that are under the control of the department and her administration. The lawsuit said that "below the line funding" violates the constitution's mandate for equitable school financing.
Bob Rosebrough, a former Gallup mayor who helped bring the lawsuit, said in an interview that it would have been unnecessary to sue the state had the Legislature approved and financed an overhaul of the school-funding formula as recommended by a bipartisan task force in 2008.
"New Mexico has one of the largest percentages of at-risk students in the nation, and together with Mississippi we are at bottom of the list in terms of the amount of resources and funding that we devote to the education of at-risk children," Rosebrough said.
About two-thirds of students live in low-income families, according to the lawsuit. For nearly 16 percent of students, English is not their primary language and they aren't proficient in it.

Six Die on Kentucky Roadways Last Week (May 27 - June 1)
Date of News Release: 06/02/08
(FRANKFORT, Ky.) - Preliminary statistics* indicate that six people died in six separate crashes on Kentucky's roadways from Tuesday, May 27 - June 1, 2008. All of the fatalities involved motor vehicles and four of those victims were not wearing seat belts. The motor vehicle crashes occurred in Allen, Barren, Bourbon, Floyd, Metcalfe and Whitley counties. Alcohol was the suspected factor in two of the crashes.
Through June 1, preliminary statistics* indicate that 299 people have lost their lives on Kentucky roadways during 2008. This is 48 fewer than reported for this time period in 2007. Of the 239 motor vehicle fatalities, 153 victims were not wearing seat belts. Of the 25 motorcycle fatalities, fourteen were not wearing helmets. Seven** people have been killed in ATV crashes and 6 of those were not wearing helmets. Twenty-seven pedestrians have been killed. A total of 54 fatalities have resulted from crashes involving the suspected use of alcohol.
Citizens can contribute to highway safety by reporting erratic drivers to the Kentucky State Police toll-free at 1-800-222-5555 (in the state of Kentucky only, does not work out of state). Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.
*These statistics are still preliminary as KSP waits for all local law enforcement agencies throughout the state to report any crashes and fatalities that may have occurred in their areas.
**Initial data indicated that four ATV fatalities were reported on Kentucky roadways last week. One of those fatalities occurred on private property and should not be included in the highway fatality data.

Selena Gomez has moved on from Justin Bieber . Now, the 20-year-old is sharing what she's looking for in a future boyfriend .
"Someone that could make me laugh... [and is] great to my parents," she said on Tuesday's Ellen DeGeneres Show .
Still, it's clear who her real crush is: Brad Pitt . Selena gushed about meeting the movie star for the first time at the MTV Movie Awards last weekend.
"I was in my dressing room and I had just finished performing, and [the production crew] knocked on my door and they said, 'Brad Pitt would like to come in' and I was like, 'Well, he can come in,'" Gomez said. "I was trying to play cool and be really nice and as soon as he walked out I ran and I hid under the craft service table for like two minutes because I couldn't believe it was happening."
Selena added that Pitt wanted to meet her to take a photo because his daughters are fans of Selena's. Brad's presence on the front row during her Sunday night performance at the awards, where Selena debuted her new single "Come and Get It," also made her extremely nervous.
"In my eyes I'm 20 so people [who] are more experienced than I am, I feel like I kind of have to prove myself so I'm just trying to do as best as I can," Selena admitted.
Selena also talked about her friendship with Taylor Swift, and revealed that she, Taylor and some of their friends are all part of something called "The Lonely Girls Club." "Taylor hosts this thing where all of our single friends...get together and get really bad junk food and she cooks some kind of cake and we play with [her cat] Meredith...[and] we just talk about how we're single," Selena explained.
The singer and actress also admitted that she would attend these parties even while she was dating Justin Bieber. "I just enjoy Taylor and her parties," laughed Selena. "They're fun."

Post-Game Thoughts
In a game the Trail Blazers just had to have if they wanted any shot at catching the Suns, they fell just short. The shooting eye deserted them the entire night, shooting a combined 32-88 (36.4%) and missing half of their total missed free throws with under five minutes to go in the 4th to seal the deal for Phoenix. Defensively, Portland couldn't have played too much better, outside of fighting through more screens, as they held a high-octane Suns offense to a miniscule 93 points and only allowed 7-23 from three-point range. Portland outplayed Phoenix in all other facets of the game, committing six less turnovers (10 to 4), stealing four more passes (5 to 1), blocking four more shots (7 to 3), and even winning the points in the paint battle by six (42 to 36). In the end, it was one strategic move by Coach Gentry which had Portland on their heels.
For about 42 minutes, Portland controlled the tempo by playing ugly and taking advantage of mismatches on the offensive end of the court. Andre was the catalyst to jump start the Blazer offense and tallied 22 points (7-2)),including 8-9 from the stripe, 9 assists, and 3 rebounds for the contest, doing most of his damage on the blocks against Stave Nash. As the jump shots weren't dropping, scoring in the interior was the only way to generate offense. Roy found his way to the rack a few times, Howard scored at least six of his eight in the paint, and the L-Train did most of his damage (16 points) by running the break or picking us loose balls for put backs. Through three quarters, this strategy was working, as the Trail Blazers lead, 68-64, heading into the final period. It was still a back and forth affair until Alvin Gentry caught the Blazers off guard by switching up his defense from straight man to man to a 2-3 zone.
Portland ended up only shooting a dismal 2-17 from three, which is why the zone was so brilliant. Really, the only way to break a zone is to shoot out of it. Portland seemed utterly unprepared for such a change in defensive strategy and failed to adapt on the fly. Instead of trying some high-low or flashing cutters to the open areas of the zone, the team got stagnant on offense and ended up forcing up contested jump shots as the shot clock winded down. While we struggled to muster any sort of offense in the 4th quarter (19 pts), Phoenix rode the hot shooting of reserve forward Jared Dudley for I believe eight straight points at one juncture of the 4th quarter to give the Suns the lead for good.
"Our defense was great; their defense was great," Suns coach Alvin Gentry said. "We did a great job in the zone. For the most part, we made them take tough shots."
What is most alarming/upsetting about this current groups of Trail Blazers is their philosophies on offense compared to their actual strengths. As a team, I'd say our biggest weakness is our outside shooting. Honestly, I think we lost three of our top four long-range shooters off of last year's team in Channing Frye, Steve Blake, and Travis Outlaw. Batum has become pretty accurate and has a beautiful stroke, but Webster, Rudy, and Aldridge seem to have taken a step back in consistency this season. Essentially, we are a jump-shooting team without any real sharp shooters. I know I harp on this a lot on this blog, but please, can we attack the rim a little bit more? Our guards especially, Roy, Miller, and Jerryd, are much more suited to get to the cup than simply stroke jumpers throughout the game. I'd rather see them initiate the offense by driving and setting up our more spot-up shooters in Marty and Rudy.
Notes: As mentioned, I did attend the game in Phoenix, AZ and must say that we, as Trail Blazers fans, should feel very blessed about our team, fan base, arena, and everything about the Blazers. The atmosphere inside US Airways Center was sporadically mediocre at best, as fans only stood for a few seconds when the jumbotron told them so. They have no Todd Bosma and their game operations during timeouts and halftime were uneventful. Even the famous Suns Gorilla hardly did any tricks at all and wasn't present for much of the game. Their fan shop was larger and much more roomer than ours and I love the fact they have an open concourse inside the arena for any fans, even ones without tickets, to use and take part in activities before the game. Finally, do not take for granted the stat board! While the RG has stats for both players and teams at your every disposal, in the US Airways Center, there were many boards, but they cycled through the different stats, meaning it took a while to see what you're looking for. Although, their out of town scoreboard knocks ours out of the park as it was much larger, easier to read, and actually provided the top performers for each team as well as the time and quarter. Overall it was a fun experience seeing a different venue, but it only made me appreciate the Rose Garden that much more.

Many large white oak and tulip poplar trees are also found here and several large sandstone boulders form Boulder Alley, where the trail meanders along a woodland stream among house-sized rocks. Other highlights include footbridges, cascading stream views and a charming native stone shelter house built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s. An optional side-spur path leads to Inspiration Point, a large thicket of rhododendron nestled among towering hemlocks. Elevation change of 250 feet and marked with red blazes.

HAMMOND | Lake Area United Way has recognized Purdue University Calumet with its prestigious Community Spirit Award for philanthropy, volunteer efforts and community impact.
The award was presented by LAUW President/CPO Lou Martinez to Chancellor Dr. Thomas L. Keon and Co-Employee Campaign Managers Karen Holland, secretary, and Ila Muller, housing clerk.
"Community partnerships provide our university with an opportunity to engage with the world beyond the campus. These partnerships may take many forms and help not only those with whom we partner, but also faculty, students and staff. We are proud to have received this Community Spirit Award," said Dr. Keon in accepting the award.
The 2012 campaign at PUC raised $22,600 for LAUW's campaign, a 25 percent increase over 2011. It also garnered two leadership givers who donated $1,000 or more. The employee participation rate grew to 27 percent, said Martinez.
"Purdue University Calumet is a global leader in higher learning, a community leader and a great United Way partner," said Martinez. "PUC and its faculty, students and staff have demonstrated time and time again their generosity and volunteer commitment to Northwest Indiana and to United Way's mission.
"Because of you, 25,000 local youngsters will get a great start in life thanks to early childhood development and after-school education programs funded by United Way. Because of you, we are offering free tax preparation to working, low-income families. Last year, that free tax help resulted in more than $1.2 million in refunds to those who need it the most," said Martinez.
The campus United Way committee led by Holland and Muller brought excitement and energy to the campaign. Their efforts included a campus kick-off, penny war competitions between student organizations, agency information tables in the student union and library, plant and doughnut sales, an auction of items donated by staff and faculty, and a post-campaign thank you event, as well as participation in United Way's Day of Caring and a student-led stuffed animal toy drive as part of United Way's 'I Need a Hug' program.
"PUC is the largest giving education institution in our annual campaign," added Martinez. "We truly appreciate the support. . .and are honored to partner with you in advancing education, income stability and health in this community.

Nothing terribly original happens in this remake of a 1957 semi-classic that starred Glenn Ford and Van Heflin, but everything happens smoothly and with grace.
Having the chutzpah to make a straightforward, unself-aware oater feels downright revolutionary. Whether that's enough to justify this enterprise, however, is debatable.
Mangold's film is more than sufficiently subtexty and cynical for our modern sensibilities while simultaneously embracing Mangold's obvious pleasure in the Westerns' time-honored swinging saloon doors and stern masculine traditions.
Mangold delivers a taut modern take on a lesser classic, preserving the High Noon themes about doing the right thing against all odds, and injecting a more modern pacing and urgency without going overboard.
The two leads' sparking byplay, Crowe's addled cockiness versus Bale's nervy grit, would grace any surroundings, but it's a pleasure to revisit the frontier in a drama which feels far more vital than mere nostalgic homage.
James Mangold's expert and entertaining 3:10 to Yuma demonstrates both the Western's age-old appeal, and the problems it presents to a contemporary filmmaker.
Elevated above the usual fare by an engaging and complex relationship between its two stars, 3:10 To Yuma would be a thoroughly entertaining two hours whatever the genre - the Western setting is almost a bonus.
The real thrill of the film lies in watching these two men, sat on various sides of the moral fence, gradually converge and respect each other.
3:10 to Yuma is as heavy on character as it sounds like it should be ... and still a rip-roaring adventure around it; until it all gets away from director James Mangold in a crashing heap of unlikely motivation and flawed decisions.
Director James Mangold amps up the blood and thunder without sacrificing the moral complexity of Elmore Leonard's original short story.
3:10 to Yuma confirms that the western is alive and kicking with a vengeance.
It is part of the richness of 3.10 to Yuma that this is a classical piece of storytelling with themes and characters that can be found in the very earliest Westerns.
Bale and Crowe are superlative, but Mangold's rote, banal expansion never quickens the pulse.
Mangold's direction is effective, if unobtrusive, and the dusty deserts of the American west continue to provide a cinematic palette that fails to run dry.
Pays homage to the classic Western by staying true to genre conventions, but does so with a fresh set of eyes that gives the film a welcome place in a modern multiplex.
Fifty years have elapsed since 3:10 to Yuma last pulled into the station, but, man, the return trip is worth the wait.
vi%u0161e nego solidan primjer vitalnog %u017Eanra kojemu su toliko puta, a sre%u0107om pogre%u0161no, predvi%u0111ali smrt
First 1.5 hours are slow, preposterously scripted, and short of powerful dialogue. I liked the ending though.
3:10 to Yuma is a big, brawling action-adventure with strong psychological elements. The original 3:10 to Yuma, with Glenn Ford and Van Heflin, directed by Delmer Daves, was a psychological western, and the present version expands on that.
In the end, what makes 3:10 to Yuma work despite a rather preposterous final act, is that it refuses to see anything in terms of moral simplicity, despite the presence of black and white hats.
It's not too often that a remake holds up to the original, but Mangold's rendition blows the 1957 version out of the water in every imaginable way possible.
A mini-epic on the historical changes of the old west...serving as a just tribute to earlier, classic westerns such as The Searchers and, more recently, Unforgiven.
[I]f you're looking for an Unforgiven-style reinvention of the Western, prepare for disappointment.
I was surprised at how engaged I remained throughout almost the entire movie, and much of that credit might have to go to the film's dual leads, Christian Bale and Russell Crowe...
