Weight Loss & Diet Plans
For Savvy Weight Loss: Know Thyself
Weight loss type 4: The sweet tooth
You've got a sweet tooth, and everyone from your husband, to your daughter, to your aunt who bakes your favorite Mississippi mud pie every Easter knows it. Some days the label gets old, but the truth is, if you're a sweet tooth dieter, you'd never turn down brownies for banana chips, and you've seldom met a piece of chocolate you didn't like. Combine a sweet tooth dieter with a serial snacker, and you've got double trouble on your hands.
Your ideal diet plan. You need to plan your indulgences carefully, says Elisa Zied, MS, RD, CDN, a certified dietitian and nutritionist in private practice in New York and co-author of Feed Your Family Right!. Instead of wasting calories on whatever's lying around your home or office (your kids' Halloween stash or those tasteless holiday cookies), identify the sweet treats you love the most and plan how much of each one you're going to enjoy when, she says. Triple chocolate chunk brownies taste so much better when you buy them - one at a time - from the local bakery and savor them bite by bite. Then, the only way to eat more is to make another trip to the store (the walk could do you good).
Eat a few high-quality sweets, and soon those mounds of imitation goodies you used to call delicious will be a calorie-laden thing of the past. If there's a food you simply must eat if it's around, Zeid says, resist the urge to buy it. And add plenty of fresh fruit into your diet plan. Peaches, strawberries, and bananas can appease your sweet tooth while providing you with fiber and key nutrients, she says. For extra sweetness, try dipping fruit in low-fat pudding or yogurt.
Weight loss type 5: The distracted diner
Multitasking may be a busy woman's best time-saver, but it sure isn't good for your health or your waistline. If you tend to do at least two or three things at once - and one of them is often snacking - you're likely a distracted diner with little clue about how much you're really eating. Whether it's the dashboard or the desktop that keeps you from paying full attention while you eat, you'll find your best weight loss help can come from simply slowing down.
Your ideal diet plan. Prepare your snacks and meals mindfully, Wansink says. Think mini-meals, such as half a sandwich and a handful of baby carrots, and avoid snack foods like chips and cookies. It's too easy to down the entire bag while you're distracted. Choose foods that are easy to eat and difficult to spill on the run, like pre-sliced apples and grapes with the stems already removed. For grains, try whole-wheat pretzel sticks, whole-grain crackers, or dry cereals like Mini-Wheats.

DELTA JUNCTION, AK-Believe it or night a baseball game that wasn't cancelled. It was down in Delta.The Eielson Ravens faced the Delta Junction Huskies and despite snow fall earlier yesterday afternoon and the wacky weather throughout the game there were reports of
sleet and hail, the Ravens come away with an 8-2 win.
Cody Ladd was on point in the opener for Eielson with 11 strikeouts, two walks, and two hits.
Ladd was also three of four at the plate including a two run inside the park homer to lead Eielson.
11 games have been cancelled due to the weather this week but Delta seems to be the place to be for baseball.
Tomorrow West Valley will play Delta at 6 pm, then Friday at 6 pm North Pole will face the Huskies. Then on Saturday Lathrop will get a crack at Delta with a double header at noon and 12:30.

Killer Apps
By J.A. Graham - August 16, 2013 | Tickers: GRMN, OPEN, WTW, YELP
Weight Watchers (NYSE: WTW) has been shedding market cap faster than clients drop pounds. Since the fourth quarter of 2012, it's been a story of disappearing subscribers and slowing growth for this membership driven weight loss service.
WTW rose from its zombie–like performance in 2008-2010, to dazzle the market with lively growth in 2011 and a subsequent resurrection of its market cap and its price. The growth was more »
Why Analysts Are Wrong About These Stocks
By Bob Ciura - August 14, 2013 | Tickers: GRMN, PH, KR
Sell-side analysts can be notoriously fickle, seemingly raising or lowering price targets based simply on whether or not a stock is currently going up or down.
At the same time, though, sell-side research is still highly valued by institutional investors, including hedge funds and pension funds.
Recently, analysts at Goldman Sachs released a list of stocks they believe to be over-valued and ripe for a correction. Are they right to more »
A Melting Arctic Means More Shipping, Drilling for Fuel
By Gerelyn Terzo - July 30, 2013 | Tickers: COP, GRMN, GNK
As the Earth's temperature rises as a result of global warming, one of the effects is melting ice in the Arctic Ocean. Ice in the Arctic has long been a barrier for greater trade activity because it blocks ships from crossing the body of water. For instance, in 2010, only four ships crossed the Arctic, according to Scientific American. That number rose to 34 in 2011 and a record-breaking more »
3 Consumer Stocks Yielding Over 4%
By Meena Krishnamsetty - July 29, 2013 | Tickers: MO, DRI, GRMN
It can be useful for income investors to see to it that their portfolio is diversified among different sectors of the economy. While it's easy to find high yielding stocks in some sectors (including utilities and telecoms), it can be more challenging to find, for example, consumer stocks which pay strong dividends and aren't unattractive due to some other factor. Using data from Fidelity, here are three consumer more »
Cell Phones a Problem for GPS Makers, But Not This One
By Reuben Brewer - July 26, 2013 | Tickers: GRMN, GM, TRMB
Smart phones are the GPS killer. That's a problem for industry leader Garmin (NASDAQ: GRMN) and auto companies like General Motors (NYSE: GM) that sell in-dashboard systems build around GPS. Phones, however, won't replace Trimble's (NASDAQ: TRMB) GPS products.

Are These Tour de France Equities Worth the Cheer?
By Arturo Cuevas - July 17, 2013 | Tickers: GRMN, RSH, SHCAY.PK
The month-long Tour de France odyssey has entered its second half. Notably, the standards of some publicly traded companies are flying in this iconic bikathon across most of France and also occasionally touching parts of nearby countries. The main rationale for their participation, of course, is the global popularity and marketing value of this annual event which marks its centennial this year.

Garmin Launches Its First Portable HUD
By usman iftikhar - July 16, 2013 | Tickers: ESE, GRMN, TRMB
The rapidly changing market dynamics in the scientific and technical instrument industry demand the market players to innovate continuously. The players have two options; either innovate or exit. The speedy technological development obsoletes the existing products, making room for the new ones.

By Madhukar Dubey - July 11, 2013 | Tickers: GRMN, ST, TRMB
Companies making scientific and technical instruments have a combined market cap of $127.1 billion as of July 3. The large number of players in the industry and rapidly changing market dynamics call for continuous R&D and innovation.

Staying Relevant in a Smartphone Dominated World
By Leo Sun - July 10, 2013 | Tickers: GRMN, GOOG
It's hard to find any investors who are bullish on GPS manufacturer Garmin (NASDAQ: GRMN) these days. Garmin, which once dominated the market for dedicated GPS devices, has seen its market share crumble over the past five years ever since smartphones took center stage. Since late 2007, Garmin has lost over 70% of its market value, as the company struggled to keep its technology relevant. However, the company refuses more »
This Company Needs to Innovate to Thrive
By Dan Moskowitz - July 8, 2013 | Tickers: AAPL, GRMN, GOOG
Garmin (NASDAQ: GRMN) is still a major player in personal navigation devices, but its grip on the market is fading. Larger players like Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) and Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) offer more convenient options thanks to the increased popularity of smartphones. However, only one of these technological behemoths has delivered on their maps. We'll get to that soon.

Prep Your Portfolio for Yield
By J.A. Graham - June 30, 2013 | Tickers: GRMN, LDR, PAYX
There comes a time in the lives of most investors when they realize the carefree days of investing in speculative growth stocks and trading in and out of equities before the bytes of the last trade fade on the screen aren't reliable ways to generate income once they retire. Smart investors on the brink of retiring begin to search for ways to generate steady income with low risk of more »
This Device Should Bring More Growth for Under Armour
By Vladimir Zernov - June 26, 2013 | Tickers: GRMN, NKE, UA
As more people turn to running as their pastime, companies try to exploit the trend. In our tech world, apparel and shoes are not enough for runners. They need wearable devices to know everything about their workout. That's where companies like Under Armour (NYSE: UA) and Nike (NYSE: NKE) are trying to squeeze more money from customers' pockets.

These Three Stocks Are Better Than High Risk Bonds
By Reuben Brewer - June 19, 2013 | Tickers: FRD, GRMN, ISIL
Investor demand for high-yielding investment options has led to the return of collateralized debt obligations (CDOs). These high risk, financially engineered products were partly to blame for the financial crisis. Investors willing to take on added risk for more yield would be better served looking at no-debt dividend payers like Garmin (NASDAQ: GRMN), Intersil Corporation (NASDAQ: ISIL), and Friedman Industries (NYSEMKT: FRD).

Since the bottom of 2009, Trimble Navigation (NASDAQ: TRMB) has advanced consistently, from around $7 per share in March 2009 to nearly $28 per share recently.

Now that the Dow Jones Industrial Average has hit an all-time high, investors may be naturally wondering what's next.

Dolphins wide receivers Mike Wallace and Brian Hartline vs. Jets cornerbacks
Who won: Dolphins
The impact: New York rookie Dee Milliner? Too young. Jets veteran Antonio Cromartie? Too injured. Wallace and Hartline? Too good on Sunday. Cromartie did get an interception by outjumping Wallace for a pop fly. But Hartline worked Milliner to death, then made Cromartie look hapless in taking a slant for a 31-yard touchdown. Wallace, whom Cromartie gave backyards of cushion, escaped Milliner's tackle attempt and raced to a 28-yard touchdown.
Jets QB Geno Smith vs. his own limitations
Who won: Dolphins
The impact: Each of the previous three weeks, Jets rookie quarterback Geno Smith failed to attain double-digit completions or 50.0 completion percentage. You don't let a struggling quarterback have a running game. By the time the Jets got anything going in the running game, Smith (4 of 10) had been yanked for Matt Simms. That led to an exchange fumble between Simms and Bilal Powell that the Dolphins turned into the touchdown that gave them a 13-0 lead.
Dolphins QB Ryan Tannehill vs. Jets coach Rex Ryan
Who won: Dolphins
The impact: Isn't a Ryan-coached defense supposed to confound and confuse even Brainiac veterans. Instead of confusing Tannehill, the Jets defense knocked him around a little bit. But any struggles Tannehill had in the first half were the result of physical errors. He had Hartline open up the sideline and Charles Clay in the end zone on fourth down plays and just missed the throws. Once Tannehill got it together in the second half, he made the Jets defense look like Simple Simons.

National test results affirm strength of General Education Program
The outstanding performance of Treveccaís seniors on the 2004 Academic Profile confirmed the strength and effectiveness of Treveccaís general education program. The Academic Profile is a test of general academic knowledge and skills and is a joint project of the Educational Testing Service and The College Board. It is designed to be used by colleges and universities to assess the outcomes of their general education programs. Additionally, the results from this standardized test allow an institution to compare its outcomes against those of all other institutions that utilize the test.
A randomly selected group of Trevecca seniors (approximately one-third of the seniors in the traditional undergraduate group) were part of the group of more than 36,000 senior-level students at 156 colleges and universities who took the test. The schools were broken down into three groups: 1) liberal artsóschools with undergraduate programs only; 2) masterísóschools with both undergraduate and graduate programs; and 3) all types.
When the Trevecca test-takersí total scores were ranked against the schools in the liberal arts group, Trevecca scored in 96th percentile (only two institutions of the 54 in that category) scored higher than Trevecca). In the ranking of schools in the masterís category (a total of 59 institutions), Trevecca students scored in the 100th percentile (no institutions scored higher than Trevecca). In the ranking for ìall typesî of schools (156 total), Trevecca students placed in the 99th percentile (only two institutions scored higher than Trevecca). In addition, five Trevecca students had scores that were in the top 1% of all individual scores.
These results are positive indicators that the general education
curriculum at Trevecca offers effective preparation for college-level studies.
Steve Pusey, vice president for
academic affairs, adds, ìThese results reaffirm that Treveccaís general
education program provides students with a strong foundation for future learning and teaches
them the skills needed for achieving success in life.î

The existing renegotiation code was home for several bugs: it might erroneously report that renegotiation had failed; it might try to execute another renegotiation while the previous one was pending; it failed to terminate the connection if the renegotiation never actually took place; if a renegotiation was started, the byte count was reset, even if the renegotiation wasn't completed (this isn't good from a security perspective because it means continuing to use a session that should be considered compromised due to volume of data transferred.)
The new code is structured to avoid these pitfalls: renegotiation is started a little earlier than the limit has expired; the handshake sequence is retried until it has actually returned successfully, and no more than that, but if it fails too many times, the connection is closed. The byte count is reset only when the renegotiation has succeeded, and if the renegotiation byte count limit expires, the connection is terminated.
This commit only touches the master branch, because some of the changes are controversial. If everything goes well, a back-patch might be considered.

Found May 05, 2013 on Seed Spitters:
PLAYERS: Nick Noonan, Marco Scutaro, Gregor Blanco, Pablo Sandoval, Joe Panik, Brandon Belt, Aubrey Huff
TEAMS: San Francisco Giants
TEAMS: San Francisco Giants
The Giants have about 20+ returning players this year as fans are getting whiffs of deja vu, but with a shallow farm system, rookie infielder Nick Noonan has gotten some playing time in the big leagues. After being drafted in the first round of the 2007 amateur draft as pick No. 32, Noonan has played his fair share of minor league baseball. Six years in the Giants minor system, Noonan has averaged a .267 batting average to go along with 36 homers and 305 RBIs. While those numbers don't stand out from other prospects around the league, Noonan impressed coaches and earned the final spot on the roster out of spring training this season. Along with the hot spring, his 142-game career in Fresno is quite impressive. A . 297 average with 10 home runs, a .342 on-base percentage and a .762 OPS in triple-A was by far his best output at any level… Until he joined the San Francisco Giants. In just 32 plate appearances this season, Noonan has already solidified himself as a useful back-up to the aging Marco Scutaro at second base. In those few at-bats, he has nine hits (about a .300 average), five runs, two RBIs and a walk. What isn't taken into account is his ability to have good-looking at-bats. Nearly 42 percent of the pitches he puts in play are line drives and roughly 80 percent of balls in play are hit up the middle. Not to mention, he goes at least four pitches deep into the count 58 percent of the time. There's little to be gauged from his performance thus far due to the small sample size, but from what he has shown this season, he has a lot of potential. The Giants have two weak links in their organization: left field and second base. Granted, Gregor Blanco is playing average baseball and Scutaro saved this team in the playoffs last year, but there are concerns. Scutaro turns 38 years old in October and by the time his contract is up he will be 40. He is batting only .240 in 104 at-bats and has only driven in four runs, but is this a common phase for him? Through 28 games last season with Colorado, Scutaro had just a .266/.316/.330 line with no homers and only one RBI. He ended up with a .306 average with seven home runs and 71 RBIs in the regular season and led all MLB players (tied with Pablo Sandoval) in hits last postseason with 26 in just 15 games. There is no doubt Scutaro is a valuable player to the Giants – he will start most games for them at second base this year. The Giants have Joe Panik a few years away hitting in double-A as the future second baseman, but Noonan can provide a good stopgap between the final years of Scutaro to the rookie season of Panik. Until then, I would expect him to play roughly the same amount of games Brandon Belt played his rookie season (63) while the aged veteran (in Belt's case, Aubrey Huff) gets the bulk of the playing time.

A Therapeutic Chain of Events3 Reviews
The blinding lights can almost take him away...
this was no accident.
This was a therapeutic chain of events.
The boy stood perfectly still, except for his fingers which danced across the guitar's fingerboard, and his arm which pounded the strings mercilessly. You might almost think he wasn't engaged in the music with the way his eyes were very nearly glazed over, but Ryan Ross heard every word that spilled from Brendon Urie's lips like poisoned honey. Oh yes, he knew those words very well. He had written them, after all.
This is the scent of dead skin on a linoleum floor.
He remembered it all too well.
This is the scent of quarantine wings in a hospital.
And what a nauseating aroma it was.
Just sit back, just sit back, just sit back and relax.
Just sit back, just sit back, just sit back and relapse again.
There were swarms of them, and they were all dancing to the beat, sweat pouring from their bodies. Smiles, shouts, broken lines coming from those in the audience who didn't know all the words or had to catch their breath. They didn't realize, or maybe they just didn't think. But Brendon did. Ryan could tell by the looks Brendon kept throwing his way. Almost as if to reassure himself that this was allright.
But it wasn't really. Night after night he played the cryptic story of his father's struggle with alcohol abuse. The story of his final failure. And it wasn't enough to bare his soul to thousands, night after night. No, that internal battle, those memories of misery, had to be converted into entertainment for the masses.
That's right. They couldn't just hear about something so personal. They had to smile, to shout, to sing. They had to /dance/. Ryan's fingers shook slightly, but he powered on through the song, occasionally looking to Brendon for a quick nod of understanding. As long as someone knew and understood, it was enough. He could go on profitting and letting others profit from the ghosts of his past and the skeletons in his closet.
But he needed to concentrate. Ryan Ross leaned into the microphone.
Can't take the kid from the fight, take the fight from the kid.
That's what it had been. A constant fight, a constant battle that noone could take him away from. His father's death was what finally drained all the fight out of this kid.
Just sit back and relapse again.
He knew it. He knew it was his own words simply being parroted back at him, but the way Brendon sang was so... comforting.
Ryan Ross, guitarist extraordinaire, finally banished these thoughts and gave himself over completely to the pounding of the bass and the flashing lights.
..."Thank you very much for attending. We're Panic! at the Disco, and good night..." Brendon's deep, soothing voice, an octive lower than usual for the crowd's benefit, startled him from his music-induced reverie and sent thrills down his spine. He sighed and swept his eyes once over the screaming crowd before departing the stage behind Brendon, who clapped a hand on his shoulder and pulled him close for an instant before shooting him one last glance and heading for the dressing rooms.
Ryan spent a moment allowing his eyes to adjust to the shrowded darkness of the thick stage curtains before turning and treading the well-worn path back into the light of the dressing rooms, where ghosts and skeletons had nowhere to hide. Where Brendon was.

[QUOTE=PaPZ187;3471059]Didn't see this posted anywhere....
Mark Sanchez is tied for the most PLAYOFF WINS in Jets history for a QB already with Namath, Pennington and Todd. Had no idea Namath only won 2, I'm only 27 years old so wasn't around then but I'm pretty sure they would only be 1 playoff game then the Super Bowl so QBs of today have more of a chance to get more Ws under their belt.
and also...
Peyton Manning has lost last 5 playoff games against teams that run a primary 3-4 defense (mostly Pats I assume) even though our D is alot diffrent from Steelers/Pats 3-4s but still comparable. Mannings stats last 12 games vs NYJ (including playoffs) 13 TD 13 INT 7 wins 5 loses.
Most of those matchups with the Jets hold no water for Sunday since players and coaches change so often but still a couple stats I saw on ESPN that I thought were interesting.[/QUOTE]
Pats and Steelers.
What's sort of interesting is that, while they are both 3-4 teams, they have very different approaches to how they operate out of it, making it hard to generalize.
The Steelers are relentless blitzers (like the Jets), while the Pats tended to be more of the read-and-react school, helped greatly by tremendous DB play.
The Jets blitz like the Steelers but cover like the Pats (Revis is a Ty Law clone in many ways), yet Rex has historically gotten mixed results versus Manning.

This is a page created for an illustrated interview with comics creator, Robert Venditti (The Surrogates). It was published in the Winter 2010 volume of The Florida Review (which only JUST came out in fall 2011 - issue 32.5)
The dimensions of The Florida Review are 9x6 which this page was drawn within so there wouldn't be any distortion form resizing. The unusual word balloons were influenced by Dave Sim and Will Eisner's stupendous innovations in comic text. This is my first published piece of comic art and has been nationally distributed.
I've previously been published in the Florida Review. My book review of Lilli Carré's graphic novella, The Lagoon appears in the Winter 2009 issue (volume 34.2). They've featured some terrific comics in past issues and my review is the first review they've published for a comic of any sort.

A Grain of Buddhism to Your Investing
W.V. is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Buddhism stresses the no-soul, the constant change and fluctuation of any being or objects in the universe. Because we are always changing, the only moment in life that matters is the present. The future - just guesswork. And the past? All a memory, all gone and no longer of any importance. What the Buddha stressed above all was mindfulness - mindfulness to your surroundings, to your thoughts, to reality. And reality, he said, only exists in the present.
This makes sense to a certain degree because the stock market's daily behavior is ruled by the psychology of panicky and even slightly pathological investors.
Now don't walk off from this article thinking that the only people who influence the stock market are the individual investors. A variety of factors actually induce those erratic ups and downs, such as the businesses themselves and their decisions, wise or maybe even investor-unfriendly as they may be. But I believe in keeping things simple; as I said in my first, introductory post, monkeys outperformed certified stock brokers when investing. Just keep it in the back of your head that businesses are made up of people, too, and that an entire new subject is rising up in colleges around America regarding psycho-economics. The psychological, pathological musings of the individual play perhaps, although quite arguably, the primary or at least a main key in the stock market's swings.
I'll admit myself a similar Fool. I hated J.C. Penney (NYSE: JCP), because it wasn't high-end enough for me to shop at, and therefore I refused to shop among their shares. But when I finally let go of that ridiculous thought pattern, and disallowed my emotions and prejudgments from ruling my decision-making processes, I realized that wait - they've got a new president and oh my goodness, it's suddenly quite the find now.
That president actually just recently moved from the director of the Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) stores and product placement within them, working directly with Steve Jobs to revolutionize the layout of the computer store to a whopping $5,600 (approx.) profit per square foot per store in the United States annually. Next down the list as the company with the highest profit per square foot per store in the U.S: Tiffany's (NYSE: TIF), at a whopping $2,000 less. Talk about setting the curve.
While it's a really great sign and very significant matter to factor in, how much money the average store actually generates, as that directly relates to the bottom line, it's not the reason I chose to place my precious-earned money into JCP. Otherwise, I would have hedged my bets by investing some in Tiffany's, or even the third down the list, Coach.
No, I placed my money in J.C. Penney, a place where hereto I absolutely refused to shop at, because some famous guy who worked with an even more famous guy at one point in his career and made some very well-known and respectable changes, moved over to JCP. And I figure people will find out. If the news doesn't spell it out for them, the new layout of the stores and catalogs or the hopeful exponential increase in profits will. And then the sheep will come. People will start thinking of JCP as sexy (the stock, not the clothes), and then they'll flock to pour in their money. I bought my shares when the price was still unaffected by the news of the new president, and I will keep my money in until it is.
See how I outsmarted myself there? I, that cooky individual investor with the power to turn a bull into a bear (with a couple million other individual investors, at least), actually thought ahead of a price fluctuation and acted on information rather than reacted to others' actions or even worse, others' reactions.
I used the Buddha's great words of advice to my advantage. But I also know that change, although inevitable, can be slow. I won't time the market – change comes at all different paces.
Instead of attempting the impossible and trying to out-perform those darn monkeys, I simply used the Buddha's wisdom to my advantage. Just notice: my thoughts did not run away with me. I was mindful of my prejudgment of JCP, so I recognized a thought as simply a thought and did a little digging. And I found some gold.
So follow your initial thoughts, and you'll be following the market. Watch how easily you fall for trends already in process, putting your money in with the rest of the sheep when the stock is at or nearing its peak.
So pull yourself out of groupthink. Don't be a sheep, be a buddha. Or at least follow him when you invest. Be mindful and conscious of why you are holding your money or selling it. But remember, even if you evolve into a new, fully aware investor, not everyone else does. So when the stock market plummets and your favorite little stock stays stagnant or even better, goes up, know that it will probably get pulled down, too, by that blasted thing called groupthink.
And that's where, instead of pulling out with the rest of the suckers, you pool your money in, and just like that, you're a savvy, Buddha-like investor, leading the curve rather than riding behind it.

I'm a Futurist on the journey from Ego to Eco, Author of 5 books (see below), and a global keynote speaker and strategist on media, social technologies, communications, sustainability, and 'Green Futures'. My main site and Futurist blog is at www.futuristgerd.com I am also the CEO of http://www.thefuturesagency.com Here, I focus on green future scenarios and green business trends, sustainable economics and what has been termed Natural Capitalism, as well as on renewable and networked energy and the idea of adapting internet, networked-society principles to the planet's most urgent climate and environment issues. In the near future, this will also become the home of the GreenFuturists group - stay tuned!
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
PDF: latest Biography (English) (German version)
I am Gerd Leonhard, and welcome to Green Futurist.
I have worked in digital music, media and in the Internet business since 1995. Since 2001 I have worked as an independent Futurist with a focus on media, content, entertainment and publishing, technology, telecom as well as marketing, branding and communications.
I am now (October 2011) expanding my activities into a new direction which I like to call "Green Futures", encompassing issues such as sustainability, carbon reduction, alternative and renewable energies, the future of transportation, a new type of capitalism that is not (just) based on profit and growth (as I call it, shifting from EGO to ECO), environmental action, eco-tourism and the future of the tourism, the 'greening' of business and in general, the radical changes that a post-growth society will certainly demand of us, very soon.
Venture capitalist John Doerr said in his seminal and deeply moving 2007 Ted talk on green technologies, quoting KPCP Founder Eugene Kleiner: "there are times when the appropriate response is panic". Without wanting to push the panic button even more frequently than other futurists before me, I must admit that I also feel that we urgently must consider sweeping changes in how we live, work and do business.
I therefore want to use my somewhat tried-and-tested speaking and presentation skills to address perhaps the most important issue there is: how we can we change the way we live, how we operate our businesses, define our policies and direct our governments; and how we will use and replenish our planet's resources, going forward.
I believe that if we don't stop borrowing from our own future, and if we don't start paying the real price for what our ever-increasing consumption actually costs, we have a very good chance at losing everything we value, today, in the next 20-50 years. We may lose our oceans, our forests, our glaciers, our rivers, our wild-life, our breathable air and our clean water - and this is not a world that I want my children, or grand-children, to live in.
Maybe we can no longer be content with 'tinkering around the edges', making only minor dents into this rapidly widening path to destruction. Maybe we need large, sweeping actions that will require significant sacrifices from us.
It is these conversations and actions I want to further with my work as Green Futurist.
Thanks for stopping by.

Mavs rip Wizards to end six-game skid
Washington, DC, United States (4E Sports) – Darren Collison chalked up 15 points and 8 assists and Vince Carter exploded for 23 points as the Dallas Mavericks snapped their six-game losing skid with a 103-94 victory over the Washington Wizards Tuesday at Verizon Center.
The Mavericks finally ended their skid behind a solid effort on both ends in the second half. The Mavs were a little bit sluggish through the opening minutes, trailing 21-12 before cutting the deficit by three, 29-13, at the end of the first quarter.
The Mavs played better basketball in the second quarter, shooting a more efficient from the field and reducing their turnovers, though it wasn't enough to overtake the Wizards at the break.
Powered by solid first half performance from Emeka Okafor and Bradley Beal, the Wizards headed to the locker room with a 52-48 advantage.
But Washington's lead was history once the Mavs unleashed a 35-19 rally in the third quarter.
Carter and Shawn Marion led the second-half charge for the Mavericks, who took an 83-71 lead at the end of the third period.
The Mavs sustained their double-digit lead, fending off all rallies thrown at them by the Wizards, who still missed injured point guard John Wall.
Okafor finished with 14 points and 11 boards and Beal had a team-high 22 points on 7-for-16 shooting from the field.
The Mavs improved to 13-19, while Wizards continued their free-fall at 4-25.

Anybodody had a really bad cough 5 days PO and now 10 PO and getting worse?? Scared going to split open!!!

Call your doctor and see if they are able to give you a prescription cough medicine. Sounds like you need a big dose of something.
Another thing you can try is warm tea with honey and lemon, and Vick's Vapor Rub on your neck, throat and chest. Now I know this may sound very crazy but my granny use to put the vapor rub on the bottom of our feet and then put a pair of sox on for the night. Always worked like a charm and the cough would settle.

Backstage News On Punk's HIAC Storyline; Post HIAC Plans For Cena
View Single Post
Asking SCOTT STEINER for Wrestling Advice
Join Date: Feb 2012

Re: Backstage News On Punk's HIAC Storyline
I dont mind the storyline, but heres where the enormous gap of logic presents itself. Punk has beaten John Cena at Money in the Bank 11, Summerslam 11, Raw 1000, Summerslam 12, and Night of Champions 12. Whether it was a controversial finish, dirty finish, the end result was Punk winning and thats not the gap of logic Im talking about. The gap of logic Im talking about is this: all these legends seem to think that beating John Cena at Hell in a Cell would solidify him with the respect he deserves. How exactly does beating a man who just had ELBOW SURGERY and who admitted last week that he probably wont be ready for Hell in a Cell but hes coming to fight, how is that win going to win Punk any respect? In terms of reality, beating a man who isnt 100% would almost gain you no respect or even lose some respect. The man has been champion for 317 days, 10 consecutive PPVs, and a win over an injured John Cena will gain him the respect hes been looking for? It makes no sense.
I dont like when people complain about booking or storylines, but this storyline deserves some criticism because of its outrageous premise. I cant listen to men like Hart, Foley and JR come out and push Punk to accept a match against an injured John Cena to gain their respect. It just doesnt make any sense. If anything, they should respect the fact that Punk hasnt accepted it and because Cena is hurt, there is your reason.

Cast and Creative Team
Directed by Daniel Student
Starring Joe Sabatino as Andrew Jackson. Also featuring Allison Caw, Max Cove, Jamison Foreman, Billy Kametz, Sam Nagel, Kristen Norine, Brendan Norton, Corey Regensburg, Shannon Remley, Tim Rinehart, Meggie Siegrist, and Josh Totora.

More About The Performance
Featuring songs such as "Populism, Yea, Yea!," "I'm So That Guy" and "Rock Star," Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson compares Andrew Jackson's frontier and manifest destiny fueled rise to power as the seventh president of the United States, and the first not born in Virginia or Massachusetts, to contemporary rock and roll American patriotic excess. A laugh-out-loud "South Park" style social critique mixes with a Brechtian self-awareness resulting in brazen satire that leaves no current political movement, from George W. Bush to the Tea Party to Obama's "Yes We Can," unscathed. In fact, the New York Times raved of the original production, "There is no show in town that more astutely reflects the state of this nation than Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson."
Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson features music and lyrics written by Michael Friedman and a book by Alex Timbers. It was nominated for the 2011 Tony Award for Best Book of a Musical, and won the 2010 Outer Critics Circle Award for Best New Off-Broadway Musical and the 2010 Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Book of a Musical. The Philadelphia premiere will be directed by Plays & Players' Producing Artistic Director Daniel Student, whose critically acclaimed productions in recent seasons include Joe Turner's Come and Gone, A New Brain, and Take Me Out.
