Fake Blueberries: Another Reason to Make Your Own Muffins
Los Angeles Times
Ever bite into a blueberry muffin and taste a clump of blue sugar? This week the LA Times reported on findings that this phenomenon is widespread across some major supermarket brands. Many popular brands of muffins, bagels, and cereals labeled as blueberry don't actually contain any of the little berries. Did you know?
This isn't much of a surprise to most of us, but what is news to me is the lengths food companies will go to describe these falsities in ingredient lists. Descriptions like "blueberry bits" and "blueberry flavored crunches" mean nothing more than food coloring, sugar, and flavoring. Worst example? Total Blueberry Pomegranate cereal, from General Mills, which contains neither blueberries nor pomegranates.
Have you encountered fake blueberries?

The only way to really know what is in your food is to make it yourself or purchase from trusted sources. As I chronicle in my blog (www.getrealchris.blogspot.com) it's a challenge to eat REAL food in a processed world.
Ewwww. We don't buy any cereals beyond oatmeal and shredded wheat/bran ... and I make our muffins. But this is disgusting - I wish Americans would stop buying this crap.
Reading the labels would help. Most of us don't bother to turn the box over. I have to read everything because DS is allergic to red #40. Do you KNOW how much stuff has red #40 in it? None of it even needs it. Stuff like ketchup and salad dressing. There's a brand of chips all the kids eat here that's covered in chili powder and lime. And red #40. In chips.
We let too much slip into our buggies because we fall for the marketing and peer pressure. Where I'm from eating without additives is still considered tree-hugging hippie crap by a lot of people.
Yeah, when I originally saw this I let out a "yawn" and went on to find something that didn't surprise me. Then again, if you are reading this website, this shouldn't be news to you but sadly, this will probably come as a suprise to many people.
"I wish Americans would stop buying this crap."
Odds are that the average American doesn't KNOW that they're buying this crap.
FAKE blueberries! so food is faking being healthy, they give the consumer the impression they are eating an anti-oxidant but in reality they are just ingesting a blue colored sugar ball? it'd be more honest just to eat a glazed donut
My husband told me this yesterday. I feel slightly bad because I was so surprised he didn't know that already that I replied, "Well, duh!"
Even if bakery mixes have actual fruit bits in them, it's almost universally just flavored apple bits.
The only time I've seen fruit in a premix is when they include a can our pouch of the fruit to mix in. And even then I'll bet they're drowning in sugar.
Which brings up a question - I looove baking with dried cranberries. They're one of my favorite things in muffins. But they're so covered in sugar! Is it possible to find dried cranberries that aren't sugarfied, or is it needed for the drying process? Should I start trying to cook with frozen cranberries? Any tips on that?
I worked at a restaurant for 10 years that also had a bakery the best selling muffin was blueberry. The batter came to us frozen but it still had real blueberries in it. But over the last year people started saying they don't taste the same I went I looked it was freeze dried blueberries with blueberry flavorings or something like that. They look real but not quite what they used to be.
Years ago I bought a blueberry muffin from a coffee shop that (used to be) famous for its muffins. Yup, where once had been berries, now there was...blueness. The blue parts had no texture. They had no flavor beyond sweet. And the texture of the muffin had changed from muffin to cupcake, and not good cupcake, either.
My husband (who is not American, but became a blueberry muffin fan when he came here) was completely amazed by homemade blueberry muffins. The blue parts are full of juice! Wow! Yeah dude it's a baked blueberry.
It's so easy to make your own baked goods and add your own blueberries/fruit. I usually pick about 5 pounds or so of blueberries in the summer, individually freeze each one in a pan, and voila! blueberries to add to all my baked goods, cereal, and oatmeal year round.
@rosebud: seriously! if you think those cute pellets in muffin mixes are real blueberries, then someone needs to feed you a salad stat!
I always make my own muffins because I only like them when they are still warm and gooey on the inside... mmmmm!
I think last time I ate a store-bought muffin I noticed the lack of real berries. The memory of it actually convinced me I did not like muffins at all and it was really hard to go near them again. I also remember it being slimy. What would ever make a muffin slimy? It wasn't just a bad muffin, every time I pass a supermarket bakery I check the muffins to see if they have the same weird sheen and they always do.
I'm from NC and there is a popular southern fast food establishment best known for it's breakfast biscuits which contain "blueberry". My fiance and I rarely eat fast food anymore but I was craving these biscuits. So i asked Google for a recipe only to discover from an Insider that they are not even made with berries at all! But instead berry flavored pellets they compared to rabbit food in look…gross!
Blueberries aren't the only food that is made with chemicals to confuse the buyers. Read the labels on the foods you buy! You will be amazed and disgusted. You can learn more about the questionable foods of today at the website of the Feingold Association, parent group that helps families avoid these dyes and know what products to buy: www.feingold.org Check it out.
Every bough blueberry muffin I have ever had has tasted like chemicals...
I didn't know that I liked blueberries or cherries until several years ago because I always hated the fake/old tasting ones that were in those muffin mixes, etc... that my Mom used (no offense to her). Once I tried fresh I realized I actually liked these fruits & will never go back!

"I think it's really important that you don't because that's best left to people's imaginations. Her dance is meant to be something that's so magical that it puts you into a trance, and it takes you into a different world. Nothing could live up to that imagination. I think that if you ever actually saw that dance, it would take away a lot of the magic and the mystery."

Irene Bedard, Pocahontas — Disney Princesses Then and Now
Then: Bedard, who is part Inuit, was not only the speaking voice of Disney's Pocahontas, she was also the physical model on which the character's design was based. However, it was Tony-nominated singer Judy Kuhn who lent Pocahontas her singing voice, which led to the film's Oscar win for Best Original Song for 'Colors of the Wind.'
Now: Several years after reprising her role in the straight-to-video release 'Pocahontas II: Journey to a New World,' Bedard went on to play Pocahontas' mother in Terrence Malick's live-action drama 'The New World.' She and the suitably surreal filmmaker most recently reteamed for 2011′s 'Tree of Life,' in which she played a mystic messenger.

¿Cómo ha sido calificado Rodos Youth Hostel en otros sitios?
Comentarios de los Visitantes de Hostelz.com
If you have no other option The sanitary facilities are not hygienic and very primitive. The showers are in the toilet cabins, the washbasins, showers and the toilets are crammed in a very small and dark space on the ground floor, no toilets or showers on other floors. The pillows and bedsheets were from synthetic I guess so at night at around 30 C they make you sweat so bad I had to put towels on them to be able to sleep. There is a WiFi service but no reception from the rooms you have to be close to the courtyard where the modem is located. The two stars I gave are, one is for the friendly owners, the second is for the location of the hostel. If these two positive points are good enough for you and you are really on a tight budget go and stay there, otherwise I don't recommend it. — ozgur, age 39, turkey (2014-08-04)
Aucun confort pr le prix! Nous avons passé 1 nuit (au lieu de 3) à Rhodos Youth Hostel. Nous avions réservé un studio pour 4 (2 adultes et 2 jeunes enfants). Nous avons l'habitude de voyager en Guesthouse (chine, thailande, grèce, islande) mais celle-ci n'était pas terrible du tout! D'abord le propriétaire m'avait dit que ça couterait 40€ pr 4 puis, qd j'ai demandé un studio, il ne m'a pas communiqué le prix. Qd je suis arrivée, il ne m'a pas non plus donné de prix mais m'a dit de ne pas m'inquiéter. Qd il a finalement bien voulu le donner, c'était 70€ + 10€ pr A/C! J'ai pu négocier à 60 sans A/C. Il faisait très chaud et on a dû dormir fenêtres ouvertes. Mais vu le nv de bruit (Rhodes+guesthouse), impossible de dormir avant 5h du matin. Puis, vu qu'il n'y a pas de rideau/volet (ni lampes chevets, ni literie correcte), on s'est réveillé à 6h30. Bref pas top du tout! On a décidé de partir et on a trouvé une chambre géniale avec terrasse privée sur les toits de Rhodes pour ... 80€! Pas du tt intéressant donc pr le prix! J'ajouterais aussi que le gars a lavé notre linge et que j'ai dû jeter 2 t-shirts et 1 jupe qui sont ressortis plein de tâches de rouille je pense. — lebas, age 38 (2014-07-27)
Very friendly, loved it! We were there this year and we loved it! the staff is very friendly, they let us taste some of the very lovely greek food and we had very nice conversation with them. They make you feel at home. It is also clean and has a charming courtyard. It's cheap too!! Definitely recommended. — JL, age 25, Spain (2013-05-19)
Really nice people and a great location I stayed here for 3 nights and really enjoyed my time. The owners are wonderful people, and treat you like family. I met some very interesting travelers here as well. People are quite laid back, cook together, spend some time in the evening or afternoon just talking in the courtyard ... it's a nice feeling. And for the price, it can't be beat! — Andre, USA/BRA (2012-09-07)
I spent all my holidays there, delightful, I must say. wonderful place, but most wonderful people, the owners. very openminded, social, often invited to eat together, never had money problems. it's right in the middle of the old town of rodos, but also only twenty minutes away from the beach. I think, I should return ... — renata, slovenia (2012-07-26)
Very nice I loved it, the place is charming, the location and the building itself are unique, you won't find the same mix of beauty and atmosphere in other more modern hotels in Rhodes Town! It has a colourful internal courtyard where you can hang out, it's cheap, and super friendly. — sarah, Italy (2011-09-22)
Great The hostel was a life saver as i didnt have anywhere to stay, very cheap, people that owned it were lovely! Amazing location in old town, very hildy wildy. Will return! Treated me like one of the family, would recommend it to anyone traveling alone, very safe! Met lots of friends there as well! — melissa, england (2011-09-03)
I liked it! i think that this hostel was very friendly and the owner was friendly. i went there with my family and we all had a nice time. if i will go again to Rhodes i would like to stay again there. also about this pictures i want to say that maybe the person who put them didn't like this hostel. i don't know why but my family and i had a really great time!!! — martha, england (2010-03-25)

An official music video I was hired to make for the song
"The Final Words" by the band Langsyne.
this means I actually got paid to do something I love.
Who woulda thunk it?
BTW it jumps a lot in time and it also runs backwards throughout
most of the movie... so don't close the window when you're halfway through
because you don't get it... everything will be explained in the end.
Also the link for the band's website does not work yet...
I'll fix it as soon as possible. And one more thing: FLASH 8 REQUIRED!
Thanks alot for both Daily 4th and frontpage:D
Rated 4 / 5 stars May 13, 2006
I like your style man.
that was a good song and the animation fit well, the charactors had an intresting look to them but the movement was kinda slow, i figure thats because is a long song and it eould take forever to make a really fast cartoon,however i also think it went well with the rythem of the music..anyway good work and please bring us more.
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars May 13, 2006
It was good, but I didn't think the animation style really fit the song. Sorry, don't hit me, I still thought it was great animation. I just thought maybe it could have been...grungier. It was too cartoony. Great song though. Are they signed?
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars May 13, 2006
dude, awesome portal, makes the song alot better. but i heard of this band before and heard they wear womens underwear at times and bras while hangin out....weird.......but great flash dude really
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars May 13, 2006
One of my favourite animations ever.
No wonder you were hired for the job, your skill is OUTSTANDING. I am THOROUGHLY IMPRESSED. GREAT WORK, AND GOOD LUCK TWITH THE FLASH CAREER!
Rated 3 / 5 stars May 13, 2006
Its kinda sad...I know the feeling of depression when you get dumped or know that she cheated on you...but damn I wouldn't go so far and kill her...
Any how I liked the music but I guess the video would be more impressive if it would be with real people...Keep up the Good work!

I wanted a good simple recipe for a wild mushroom soup after enjoying it at a local restaurant. This recipe was perfect - a real hit. I did not have madeira and substituted a sweet port and it was delicious. I processed the soup just enough to make the mushrooms "diced size". Rich but not overfully filling.
Wild Mushroom Soup
Puree if you prefer your soup smooth rather than chunky. To serve without pureeing, decrease chicken broth to 3 cups.

The proper etiquitte for posting race results on an board is to put SPOILER in the title, and then race results in the message. This is so that those that still want to catch it on TV (delayed replay) won't know who wins before they watch, unless they choose to click...

EAST HARTFORD, CT - NOVEMBER 27: Blidi Wreh-Wilson#5 of the Connecticut Huskies avoids the Cincinnati Bearcats after he intercepted a pass in the fourth quarter on November 27, 2010 at Rentschler Field in East Hartford, Connecticut. The Huskies defeated the Bearcats 38-17. (Photo by Elsa/Getty Images) *** Local Caption *** Blidi Wreh-Willson
All four players representing UConn at the NFL Combine last week came out of the experience better than when they went into it. DE/OLB Trevardo Williams ran a sub-4.6 40, ILB Sio Moore continued to impress with his athleticism, and CBs Dwayne Gratz and Blidi Wreh-Wilson impressed scouts, coaches and general managers looking to bolster their NFL secondaries.
It's hard to see which player benefited the most from the the dog and pony show that the combine has become (seriously, it's a bunch of 20-somethings running around in shorts and t-shirts), but Wreh-Wilson is a safe bet.
NFL Network draft expert Mike Mayock spoke highly of Moore after his Senior Bowl performance in January, and now he appears to be high on Wreh-Wilson. In his post-combine rankings, Mayock has Wreh-Wilson as his fourth-best corner behind Alabama's Dee Milliner, Florida State's Xavier Rhodes, and Washington's Desmond Trufant. Mayock's pre-combine rankings didn't include Wreh-Wilson, who's 6-2, 195-pound frame intrigued some NFL teams.
"Most of the teams that have been talking to me seemed to like the aggressive, pressing style that I do playing close to people and using my size and length to my advantage," Wreh-Wilson said at the combine, according to SNY.com's John Silver.
Despite his size, Wreh-Wilson said he's able to play inside, too (a position usually reserved for smaller, speedier corners).
"In our system (at UConn), I wasn't really required to play in the slot all the time," he said. "It was something we had, things I did in practice, things like that. But on the outside, basically, it was my freedom. When my coach made a call, I was the guy — I could choose to play off, I could choose to play press, any coverage. It was just kind of something that helped me out in the long run."
Wreh-Wilson's also been playing football a few years, which means that he's only going to get better. A fact not lost on scouts.
"I feel teams are looking at my potential as one thing, but in the short amount of time I have been playing football, my resume's pretty good," he said. "I've shown a lot of good things, a lot of positive things on the field, and I have an upside that a lot of guys don't."

Saturday Morning Drills: Get Gorgeous Calves
Looking for ways to get gorgeous calves? We have the best exercises to get you those envious calves in no time! The calf muscles are made up of two main muscles; the gastrocnemius and soleus. These muscles are used every time you walk, run and go up and down stairs. In order to get the defined calves you are looking for try to following exercises two to three times a week. If you are looking to also lose weight include this with additional lower body strength training and cardio for best results.
Before you start the exercises below make sure you are properly warmed up by walking or jogging for at least ten minutes. Always use proper form and avoid doing these exercises daily to avoid injury.
Calf Raise
This exercise is good to do if you don't have access to gym equipment. Calf raises can be done freestanding on just about anything raised up (e.g. stairs, blocks, books, etc.) or even from the floor. For more of a challenge they can be done one leg at a time. To work the inside of your calves, set your feet farther apart and rise up onto the inside balls of your feet. To work the outside, set your feet in close and rise up on the outside balls of your feet. Do not turn your toes in or out as this will put stress on your knees.
Leg Press Machine
This machine is primarily used for the upper legs but shifting your feet slightly will put the focus on your calves. If the machine plate is adjustable, set it a little bit higher. While sitting in the seat and starting with a lower weight (until you figure out how much is best for you) place your toes near the bottom of the pressing plate (where your heels would normally go). Use your toes to push the plate and then slowly let it come back down.

'ParaNorman': Otherworldly Pleasures
Glenn Kenny, Special to MSN Movies
As much as I love the old Looney Tunes and vintage Disney shorts and features, and enjoy complaining that they just don't make 'em like they used to, every now and then I see a contemporary animated film that makes me believe that we just might be living in a new golden age of the genre. And I'm not just talking Pixar.
Jan Svankmajer, the Aardman gang ("Chicken Run" and the Wallace and Gromit pictures), those "Triplets of Belleville" kooks ... all these auteurs and outfits are up to fantastic stuff, as is, it so happens, Laika Entertainment, the company behind the awesomely beautiful and evocative creepy-crawly stop-motion animation gem "Coraline." These folks are like the slightly family-friendlier EC Comics of the genre, and their newest picture, "ParaNorman," is, among other things, their scariest yet.
Search: More on stop-motion animation | More on Anna Kendrick
I know what you're thinking: How scary can a movie about a nerdy small-town boy who sees dead people really get? You've seen that movie before, no? Well, no. Norman is first seen watching a vintage horror picture on the TV with his grandmother, who, as it turns out, is not all there ... at all. On his walk to school, we see all the poor unable-to-get-to-the-afterlife souls that he communes with, and at school we meet all the mean kids who abuse Norman on account of his "gift," including a genuine lummox named Alvin. Because it's fall, and because the town is a New England one whose tourism ads tout a witchcraft-heavy past, it's all rendered in breathtaking autumnal colors and the ghosts have an amazing 3-D translucence.
Soon the folks who scorned Norman come to rely on him, of course, as it's only via his powers that an ancient curse upon the town can be lifted. The curse does not get reversed in time, and the ensuing zombie action is kind of tame ... at first. But for the last 30 minutes or so, the living trees and other manifestations of the curses' wrath result in some of the most genuinely jarring horror imagery to come out of any recent fright-fest, live-action or animated. And when the secret of the curse is revealed, "ParaNorman" morphs yet again, from an edge-of-your-seat thriller to a two- or maybe three- hanky weepie.
All the while, the movie serves up characters that skirt the commonplace but rarely come off as clichéd. (They are expertly voiced by a cast that includes Anna Kendrick, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Elaine Stritch, Casey Affleck, John Goodman, Tucker Albrizzi and Kodi Smit-McPhee in the title role.) Norman turns out to be, when all is said and done, something of an outcast among outcasts, and the movie comes by its ain't-no-delinquent-just-misunderstood denouement both honestly and movingly. Even if you don't feel a connection to the story, beautifully written by Chris Butler and co-directed by Butler and Sam Fell, if you're any kind of animation or graphic art fiend or even mild enthusiast, the visuals are sure to stagger you. "ParaNorman" is an extrasensory delight for sure.

Laurence Harvey (or Zhi Mosheh Skikne – who would have guessed he was really Lithuaninan?) was a very fine actor, best known for Room at the Top, The Manchurian Candidate and The Alamo.
Having just watched him again in The Alamo, I was inspired to consider him for a place at my table. As William B Travis, he led the small force which kept Santa Anna's army at bay for just long enough.
With facts few and far between, the myth of how Travers, Crockett and Bowie gave their lives for Texas is a great story.
Tex-Mex food is always a favourite and would be an appropriate choice of menu, even if only to stir up a lively conversation.
I have included a similar recipe before (see If the Nighthawks at the Diner were Vegetarian) but this time I am also utilising the fresh chilies and tomatoes I picked straight from the greenhouse.
VEGGIE CHILLI in WRAPS
Serves 2 – 3
300g Quorn mince
1 onion, chopped finely
1 clove garlic, crushed or chopped very finely
1 can kidney beans
1 fresh jalapeno chili pepper, chopped
1 fresh scotch red bonnet chili pepper, chopped
1 fresh 1 tsp mixed herbs
100ml vegetable stock
1 can tinned tomatoes
6 fresh tomatoes
1 tbsp tomato puree
1 tbsp olive oil
Add the tinned tomatoes and then the Quorn mince. Pour the vegetable stock over the mince to break it down and stir everything together well.
Add tomato puree and herbs.
Rinse kidney beans and add to the pan.
Bring everything to the boil. Turn down and allow to simmer for at least ten minutes and, ideally, about half an hour.
Cut tomatoes into quarters and add, then continue cooking for another ten minutes.
Serve in tortilla wraps.

Two ex-Navy SEALs found dead aboard pirated ship that inspired movie
Victoria, Seychelles (4E) – Two former Navy SEALs working as ship security crew were found dead Tuesday aboard the Maersk Alabama, a containership that inspired the movie Captain Philips after it was hijacked by Somali pirates in 2009.
Police in the Indian Ocean island of Seychelles found the Americans lifeless inside their cabin two days after the ship docked in Port Victoria.
The U.S. State Department confirmed the deaths and said the Coast Guard is investigating.
According to Seychelles police, the bodies were found by a colleague around 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, hours before the ship was scheduled to depart.
The families of the victims did not want their names revealed. The dead SEALs were only described as both 44 years old, working for the Virginia-based Trident Group and part of 24 crewmembers of the Maersk Alabama.
The Trident Group employs former special operations personnel to provide shipping and port security. It confirmed to Fox News that the two men were former Navy Seals.
The hijacking of the Maersk Alabama off the coast of Somalia in 2009 became the basis of the 2013 movie "Captain Phillips" starring Tom Hanks. Hanks played the role of Capt. Richard Phillips, who was held hostage by the pirates before being rescued by Navy SEAL snipers.

Thanks for the compliments. I like the style too, but is still needs tweaking. I thought I'd play with a different hand-drawn style to all the iso-mountains we've been seing recently, but now I understand why people do iso mountains - much quicker to draw :)

What is the future of wearable technology?
Wearable technology is an undeniable trend and many brands such as Nike, Apple, Samsung and Google are all bringing out products to satisfy consumers growing awareness and demand for new products.
A lot recently has been publicised about smartwatches in particular due to the Samsung Galaxy Gear watch and the new Apple iWatch- does this mean the future of wearable technology is all about wrist based devices? Can wearable technology cross over from being an fashion accessory to being a functioning part of our everyday lives? What do you think will happen in the future of this industry?

Uniqea MonieOct 23 2013: I think so, I am one of those people that think that what people are imagining in films, other people are in the process of creating in labs... We have the google glasses and now the watch, it's only a matter of time before our clothing is tech if it isnt somewhere already.
Technology is great and makes human life much much easier, it's just a matter of using all this great tech for good rather than evil that we have allowed govts and businesses to use it for. i dont want a smart watch if im being tracked while using it without my knowledge or consent. And I dont want a smart hat if it can randomly create/prune neurons in my head from someone somewhere (this is in the making in AZ fyi for the military)
Now we just have to work on humans making human life easier... This is supposed to be the age of longer lives and happier lives.

T3 - Borderline Personality Disorder
Borderline falls into Cluster B personality disorders and keeps company with Histrionic, Antisocial, and Narcissistic PDs, all of which are marked by drama, emotion, and erratic behavior.
Borderlines, as individuals with this disorder can be called by those in the industry, have historically been considered to be on the border between psychosis and neurosis. Psychosis is a loss of contact with reality. (Literally, from the Greek words "psyche" for mind and "-osis" for abnormal condition--an abnormal condition of the mind.) These people experience an alter reality where hallucinations and delusions and bizarre behavior are common-place. Neurosis has become sort of a pop-psychology term to describe a way of existing that's distressful, but not outside societal norms. (For example, someone with a phobia or with obsessive-compulsive disorder or anxiety would be considered neurotic, but not actively psychotic.)
If that gives you any indication how life is for a Borderline, then you should understand this is no walk in the park. The essential feature of BPD is a pervasive pattern of instability in personal relationships, self-image, and affects, and marked impulsivity that begins in early adulthood and is present in a variety of contexts. There are 9 diagnostic criteria, of which a person has to have 5 or more of the following:
1) Makes frantic efforts to avoid real of imagined abandonment. Borderlines are sensitive to environmental circumstances, and nothing escapes their attention. Even if the separation is time-limited (just a week) or unavoidable (workshop for work calls you to travel away or you're late meeting them because there was a traffic accident), they will experience intense fear of abandonment and inappropriate anger.
2) Has a pattern of unstable and intense relationships. They put friends/lovers on pedestals and idealize them, wanting to spend as much time together as possible and giving too much out too much intimate information in relation to how long they have known them. However, they can quickly switch to devaluing them, feeling the other person isn't there for them enough or doesn't care or give enough.
3) Identity disturbance characterized by markedly and persistently unstable self-image or sense of self. Goals, values, aspirations, career plans--anything and everything is up for change. They might put come off as needy one day and then seeking revenge the next with a strong personality. People who know them really feel that they don't know them.
4) Display impulsivity in at least two areas that are potentially self-damaging. There are a number of areas that can meet this requirement, such as; gambling, spending money irresponsibly, binge eating, abusing substances, practicing unsafe sex, driving recklessly.
5) Recurrent suicidal behavior, gestures, or threats; self-mutilating behaviors. This is often the reason for Borderlines to seek help in the first place and is considered a hallmark trait. The completed suicide rate is high amongst this population (usually 8-10%). Self-mutilation, which includes cutting or burning, are very common. (Cutters usually favor the inside of the forearm or the tops of the thighs, but wounds can exist anywhere.) These acts are usually caused by a threat of separation/rejection or expectations from their partner that the Borderline assume more responsibility in the relationship. Cutting and burning (can be with flame or even pencil erasers rubbed extremely fast over the skin) may happen when the person is dissociative (not fully themselves) and often brings about a relief for the individual because the pain is preferable to the emotion. (I've had a few clients say that they feel so numb, and that cutting allows them to feel something, which is reassuring. Others say cutting themselves is a way for atoning for their being an evil/bad person.)
6) Affective instability due to a marked reactivity of mood. Borderlines have one basic mood: dysphoria. When a person feels dysphoric, they feel a state of unease and generalized dissatisfaction of life. But a Borderline's dysphoria can be disrupted by periods of intense anger, panic or despair that can last a few hours...rarely more than a few days.
7) Chronic feelings of emptiness. They may be easily bored and so therefore constantly seeking something to do.
8) Express inappropriate, intense anger or have difficulty controlling their anger. This could manifest as extreme sarcasm, verbal outbursts, or physical fights. The anger results from when the Borderline feels than someone is neglectful, witholding, uncaring, or abandoning. After expressing themselves, they often feel guilt and shame while furthering their opinion that they are evil.
9) Brief periods of paranoid ideation or dissociative symptoms may occur during times of extreme stress (but generally not enough to warrant another diagnosis). By brief, I mean minutes to hours. Usually, this is also as a result to real or imagined abandonment. They may feel that they are briefly outside their body, a condition called depersonalization.
The thing to remember about Borderlines is that they can lie and manipulate extremely well. Unlike Antisocials, who use power to get what they want, Borderlines appear to use their weaknesses to manipulate. Dr. C. George Boeree commented on his website, "They pull you towards them, then push you away, then pull you back. They pit one friend against another. They dramatize situations to their own ends. They move, chameleon-like, from one "personality" to another." This description reminded me of a book I had to read in school. The title, I Hate You--don't leave me, is indicative of the nature of a Borderline.
Borderlines are hard to treat. Very hard. Therapists are not immune from the idealization/devaluation that Borderlines do, and this makes for talk therapy difficulties. When I slipped from the pedestal for one Borderline client, regaining ground was hard. She thought I was uncaring, but in reality, it was only because I cared that I told her what I had noticed about the patterns in her behavior, trying to help her be self-aware. They also have a typical pattern of regressing just as therapy is going well, to avoid the perceived abandonment of terminating therapy. So you can see the inherent difficulties in just being friends with someone like this, much less treating them.
As for what type of childhood these individuals had, some common backgrounds from Borderlines across the country are physical and sexual abuse, neglect, hostile conflict and early parental loss or separation. Medications and therapy (and patience) are the best modes of treatment. Borderlines can be found in about 2% of the general population, 10% in outpatient mental health clinic populations and about 20% in psychiatric inpatients. The young adult years are the hardest, but Borderlines in their 30s and 40s generally gain greater stability in their relationships and have less likelihood of suicide.
It's a long post, I know, but there's a lot going on with this disorder. Hopefully you'll find what you need if you're seeking info on BPD.
Q4U: Discuss any experience you've had with a Borderline. Did they seem to straddle the fence between sanity and insanity?

This was encouraging to me. I have a family member who I love that I think fits this so well. This person has cut themself pretty badly, had to go to hospitals, etc. Yet this person has a great personality and I'm as close to them as I can get to someone I don't trust. But I love this person and am SO glad to see that things improve as they get older. I can actually already see that this person is more stable now than as a teen.
But the background...it's odd to me how it affected my family member that way but not others in the family.
Thanks for the insights!

This definitely helps me figure out a family member or two. I'm fighting with one right now who a family member, who's getting her masters in psychology, believes may have BPD. The tendency for this person to manipulate to her advantage is astounding and confounding--to the point I'm considering whether I want to continue contact with her. Thanks for the insight.

Firstly, yes it really sucks being a "borderline", Secondly... you really hit the nail on the head. I especially liked the bit about,
"The thing to remember about Borderlines is that they can lie and manipulate extremely well. Unlike Antisocials, who use power to get what they want, Borderlines appear to use their weaknesses to manipulate. Dr. C. George Boeree commented on his website, "They pull you towards them, then push you away, then pull you back. They pit one friend against another. They dramatize situations to their own ends. They move, chameleon-like, from one "personality" to another."
It hurts to think about it, but it's very true.

The Two-Truck Transition
Now Curl runs I-5 from Olympia, Wash., to Southern California solo. He hauls lumber and other loads south and hot tubs and an occasional load of steel north.
"I had experience with direct employees and a leased operator," he says. "Frankly, there's not enough money in it to make a profit that's worth the liability you put out there."
Curl calculates a minimum 10 hours of administrative time per truck per week, a cost of at least $50 an hour if you paid someone to do it for you.
"For me to make another $1,000 to $1,500 a week by putting another truck on to give me compensation for my risk, I don't see that happening," he says. "I can barely pay myself."
With his 2009 Kenworth T660, he grosses $200,000 to $250,000 a year, running roughly 100,000 miles. He pays himself $2,000 a month. His wife draws a salary, too, for keeping the books, billing and dealing with brokers.
Azmi Azad thought he could make money hiring a friend to drive his truck. He hired her in November and paid cash for another truck that he drove.
But the friend peppered Azad with questions about directions and complaints about loads. "She was trying to make as much money as quick as she could," says Azad, who's been driving since 1990 and has been leased on to Schneider National Inc. for 18 months.
"A second truck is too much, mentally and financially. I was exhausted at the end of the day. I had no time to think about anything." After three months, he sold the truck she was driving.
Azad says he had been taking home $2,000 a week from the truck. But while his friend was driving for him, he was losing $500 to $600 a week. "I lost $10,000 in that deal," he says.
What did he learn? "You want to make money, you work it yourself," he says.
He recalled a warning from David Wolff, an adviser at financial services provider ATBS. "He said if you want to make money, you have to have at least five trucks. Some people can run five trucks, but I don't know how."
After driving for more than 18 years and working in operations management for different fleets, Bruce Barton decided in 2001 to work for himself. He bought a used truck and found loads by tapping into his industry contacts.
By 2007 he owned five trucks, operating his Idaho Roads fleet from his New Plymouth, Idaho, base. Clients asked for more capacity.

The Lenexa Karate Academy is the premiere karate school in the Kansas City Metropolitan area offering professional martial arts services and instruction to people of all ages! We strive to provide consistent, quality martial arts instruction for every student. Karate. Jujitsu. Traditional weapons.
The martial-arts masters at AKKA Karate USA specialize in kenpo karate, a unique form that builds muscle tone and reflexes in order to use the body's natural weapons—hands and feet—for self-defense. In addition to kenpo, they also lead classes focused on MMA, tai chi, and weapons training. Often, AKKA holds special events such as tournaments and sparring seminars. In addition to learning self-defense techniques, students also build valuable life skills such as an appreciation for fitness, discipline, and self-confidence.
At Brazil Academy, Ninja Pinto fulfills his lifelong dream of bringing the martial arts capoeira and jujitsu to American audiences from his native Brazil, where he spent his formative years training in these fighting techniques. Now a contra-mestre with more than a decade of teaching experience, Ninja leads instructors who, in addition to martial arts, guide groups of all ages and fitness levels through foot-spicing Latin dances, yoga, and cardio workouts. Students in need of more focused attention can opt for private lessons, during which instructors teach skills and fitness techniques on a one-on-one basis.
TMAFitness offers kids and adults traditional karate, kickboxing, boot-camp, and martial-arts classes in a welcoming setting. At this functional studio, certified instructors teach discipline and self-respect while helping their clients build self-confidence. Try a martial-arts class to learn sparring and self-defense moves that can protect against an attack, or enroll children in Karate Kids, a belt program that burns off excess energy and keeps bullies at bay. You can also punch and kick heavy bags in kickboxing classes, or burn fat and build muscle in a boot-camp session.
It's hard to top the resume of AmeriKick Martial Arts sensei Bob Leiker. A six-time NBL World Champion, he has defeated so many notable opponents that he was inducted into the Legends Hall of Fame. As if that weren't enough, he created a fighting style of his own called sen shu do ryu—a fusion of his knowledge of jiu jitsu, karate-do, tae kwon do, okinawan go ju ryu, and american kickboxing. Outside of the ring, he has served as a governor's appointee to the Kansas Sentencing Commission and the official martial arts instructor for the Kansas City Chiefs.
Still, Bob prefers to talk about his students' successes. AmeriKick's martial arts classes teach not only karate techniques and kickboxing maneuvers to students of all ages and fitness levels, but also self-confidence and the drive to improve oneself. In youth karate classes, students learn to de-escalate potentially hazardous situations, and adult karate sessions teach participants to take defensive action against would-be attackers. Through these lessons, students learn to apply the focus they use in the ring to better themselves outside of it, from tackling personal challenges to staring down textbooks until they turn their own pages.
Practicality is the name of the game at ATA Martial Arts. For kids and teens, they have bully prevention, child safety, and leadership classes, as well as karate lessons. For adults, they teach self-defense through tae kwon do while fostering fitness, positive attitudes, and confidence.

I have recently acquired a two year old Toy Aussie. Unfortunately, she was never house broken. We have two doggie doors which she uses all the time and follows my other Miniature Aussie outside all the time. We still can't seem to get her to understand what outside means. We have never had any problems with our other dogs. But this one just refuses to use outside. We take her outside first thing in the morning but as soon as we get her back inside she's done it again. Any suggestions? She is not a dumb dog!

WIth regards to the worgen curse, it makes sense when you think about it.
"Curse" is a strong word to throw around; in this case it should be looked at purely as an "influence" and not strictly as a negative affect as it usually is. The fact is that, as stated, its roots lie with the Emerald Dream and the powers of an ancient and a holy entity. When someone either contracts the "worgen influence" or imbibes willingly, they are absorbing a power which, by all evidential lore, would be immune to undeath and therefore granting them some of the same resistance. When this person dies, they are still "under the influence."
The Val'kyr, while effective in their own rights, are only fractionally as powerful as the Lich King; less so now that there's new management. It stands to reason that their power, diminished or not, would have little effect on a being imbued with an essence that is quite literally the polar opposite of undeath.

Public Programs
Brown Bag Gallery Talks are held with each exhibition. Using their own vantage point, a guest speaker who is an artist or arts professional gives a tour of the exhibition. The talk will be held in the gallery corresponding to the exhibition. Guests are encouraged to bring their own lunch to continue the conversation in the Blaffer café.
Join Blaffer Art Museum, the Blaffer Student Association, and Coog Radio for First Thursdays at the museum! Enjoy a little r&r and get your creative juices flowing with music, small bites to eat, and local brews from Karbach. No lecture, no program, just fun!
This semester, enjoy complementary beer from a featured guest bartender, who will welcome visitors to enjoy beer and conversation as part of Tom Marioni's beer salon in the exhibition Feast: Radical Hospitality in Contemporary Art.
Join Blaffer for an all new film and video program with both daytime and evening screenings for our on-campus and greater Houston communities!
Special Programs
In addition to regularly scheduled events, Blaffer sponsors numerous lectures, panel discussions, special performances, and workshops held in conjunction with specific exhibitions.
Visiting Artist and Scholar Series
The 2013-2014 Visiting Artist and Scholar Series boasts a second season of sustained collaboration between the School of Art and Blaffer Art Museum designed to bring artists and scholars to the University of Houston. This series continues to integrate the visual arts on campus, build upon our first and widely successful year of programming under the united theme of "Materiality," and continues to support University-wide efforts to place UH on the national stage, where other leading university arts programs organize and fund similar programs. Artists and scholars selected in conjunction with School of Art curriculum and Blaffer exhibitions are invited for public lectures or conversations, and will conduct workshops and studio visits with UH students. The series directly reflects and builds upon three Blaffer exhibtions: Feast: Radical Hospitality in Contemporary Art, Zineb Sedira: Lighthouse in the Sea of Time, and Anton Ginzburg: Walking the Sea.
To see a list of upcoming guest lecturers, click the Visiting Artist and Scholars link.
The 2013-14 Visiting Artist and Scholar Series is co-presented by the UH School of Art and Blaffer Art Museum. This project is supported through the Innovation Grants program of the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Center for the Arts, which is funded in part by the Houston Endowment, Inc.

How Many Post Op appointments?
- Albany, NY

I was wondering how many post op appointments I can expect to have in the three weeks after my surgery? I ask because I originally arranged my surgery to happen at the end of January since the family member that was caring for me would be on vacation most of February. My surgery got postponed to February 5th and now I don't have that reliable transportation and need to figure out a new plan. Thanks!

My PS does 1 day, then 3 days (as your still in hospital), then 1 week, then 8 weeks (unless there's a problem), then at 6 months, 9 months, 12 months. No, I don't pay for the post-op appts, they are included in your surgeon's fees.

My dr. does a 1 week, 3 week, 6 week, 3 month and 6 month I believe. As long as everything is ok, of coarse.

I really think it depends on the doctor. My PS has incredibly close follow up. I stayed overnight the first night, so obviously saw him the morning after surgery. Then he had me come back the next day (two days post op). Then I went back at 1 week post op, and then at 2 weeks post op. At the 2 week post op appt, I was diagnosed with a seroma and had to go in a total of 4 times that week to be drained. Then I had my 3 week appt. After that I had 3 weekly endermology sessions, then a 6 week check up, then an 8 wk checkup, and now I don't go back till 3 months. It is worth noting that I drove myself to all appts after 1 wk post op, though. So I only needed my husband to drive me to surgery, home from surgery, and to two follow up appts.
