Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
I have beaten Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. I know what happens with the characters. I know the twists and turns of the plot. I have conquered the bosses. I know what really happens to Snake. I can say this because last month over a three-day period in the mountains of Japan, I played through the final chapter in the Metal Gear Saga in its entirety.
And sadly, for now, I can only talk about the first section of the game I played.
Along with five other North American and 10 European journalists, I got the chance of a lifetime in the middle of March -- to travel to Japan to participate in the Metal Gear Solid 4 Boot Camp. All we knew going in was that we would be able to play through the entire game someplace away from Tokyo. It was made clear to us that this was actually for Kojima Productions' benefit, and while we could report on some facets of the experience, we were there mainly to give feedback the team could use in the final tuning process.
We all met on Tuesday, March 11 at a hotel in downtown Tokyo to travel together via Shinkansen (the bullet train) to a place called Nasu. We were told we were going to Konami's Super Campus, and after the train we would travel by bus. To be quite honest, we really didn't understand why we were going all the way out to this place rather than just simply playing the game at a hotel somewhere in Japan or having a demo at Kojima Productions. For all of the Metal Gear fans that were going out to Nasu, I think any of us would probably have just as readily played through the game while being held upside down and beaten with a golf club.
Konami's Super Campus is beyond description. As the bus rolled up, we were shown the entire compound. On the side of this mountain Konami has basically created their own mini-city made up of a few main buildings including the hotel, the office building, and a museum dedicated to the company's original president, Kagemasa Kozuki (and current CEO and Chairman of the Board), called Spirit of Kozuki. We were also informed that if the campus lost power, we'd be fine, as the place could also be powered by solar and wind power. While still covered in some spring snow, there was a pond, tennis courts and fields where we were told Kojima Productions held their military and CQC training. As Kojima-san told us later that evening, they decided to hold the Boot Camp in Nasu because this is where the team gets away from it all to focus on the game. We could all quickly understand why.
As we arrived to the hotel, we were instructed to dump our bags, have lunch, and then immediately leave the hotel to board a bus to the office area where we would have our briefing. Upon entering the office space, it was as if we stepped into a James Bond movie and we were deep inside one of the nemesis' lairs. Everything was completely state-of-the-art and modern, with a clean, white, sterile appearance. We slid into slippers as we entered, as no normal footwear was allowed inside the premises. After being lead into a circular meeting room, our eyes were fixed on the monitors at each station that glowed with a message stating our ultimate goal.
Kojima Productions' Ryan Payton, MGS4 Producer Ken Imaizumi and Konami Japan's Aki Saito gave us the lowdown on what to expect in our three days at the Super Campus. On the first day we would play MGS4 for five hours until a welcome party dinner. We were instructed to choose a PlayStation 3 station that would be ours for the next three days, play the game on "Solid" mode (which Kojima Productions had named the main normal mode of the game) and play the game as a gamer -- not as a tester. This build of the game was almost final but still not finished, and certain things such as text and lip-sync elements were still being tweaked, along with the difficulty of the mode.
Spoiler Warning: Most of the stuff I'll be talking about in this feature is a deeper look into things that you could have learned from reading other coverage, playing the demo at E For All or the Tokyo Game Show, or watching the trailers. However, if you've stayed abreast of everything MGS4, you shouldn't be concerned -- most of what Konami has shown in the past few years takes place in the first portion of the game. I'm going to do my best to keep this as spoiler-free as possible, but depending on what constitutes a spoiler for you, be advised.
We chose our spots, fired up the game, and put on our headsets, which were hooked into sound processors that allowed for Dolby Surround. MGS4 is rumble-enabled and we played the game using the new DualShock 3 controllers. Upon beginning, users can select from the following options: new game, load game, mission briefing, options, photo album, virtual range, MGO and extras. Currently there are three difficulty levels -- Liquid Easy, Naked Normal and Big Boss Hard. As Kojima Productions is still finalizing difficulty settings and naming conventions, we're not entirely sure how these will come into play, and after you complete the game the first time there may be other difficulty levels that unlock. There won't be a European Extreme difficulty, as found in Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence, since the game will be releasing across all territories simultaneously. However, given the popularity of that mode for the hardcore players, that's not to say something like that mode won't be in the final product.
Act 1: Liquid Sun
While I'm going to leave out discussion of the actual opening sequences of the game, if you've watched the trailers, you'll have a good idea of why Snake is heading to the Middle East. MGS4 is broken into acts, and the gameplay in Act 1 starts out in a dingy, war-torn city that the Colonel calls Ground Zero. Everything is happening in-engine, and as the credits roll, Snake arrives. As MGS fans are well aware, cut scenes can be quite lengthy and users finally have the ability to pause them. Also, much like in previous MGS titles, users can cut away at times to see a different viewpoint of the action, such as zooming in on certain areas or elements. Considering much of the game is answering many old questions, Kojima Productions has instilled a new flashback system, and in moments that old characters or events are described, with a quick press of a button you can flip through a series of pictures to better explain a situation.
In the Middle East, the militia is battling a PMC group called the Praying Mantis, and Snake's initial objective is to make his way through the battlefield and meet up with a contact that knows where Liquid Snake is located. There is no in-game tutorial for the move set, and the second you take control of Snake -- or "Old Snake," as the game refers to him -- you are seconds away from battle. If you need a refresher on special moves, the new rolling techniques or CQC, there is a briefing section that will display both the simple and advanced moves. There are also a few new elements in the HUD of which to be aware. The stress meter (shown as a percentage) is displayed next to the life bar, and things like Old Snake's sore back, firefights and adverse weather conditions can affect Snake's stress levels. You'll want to keep Snake's stress at a minimum; otherwise, it drains the Psyche Gauge. The Psyche Gauge replaces the Stamina Gauge from MGS3; if your Psyche Gauge is low, you'll be less accurate in shooting and have a harder time aiming. The threat ring around Snake is still intact, and when Snake is hiding you can tell where enemies are lurking with a disruption wave on the threat ring.
Snake's new "sneaking suit" is comprised of Octocamo -- a new type of camouflage that copies the colors and textures immediate to Snake. There are no button presses to activate this camouflage; if you lie still on the ground or press Snake up against a wall for a few seconds, the Octocamo will automatically copy the surroundings. As in MGS3, there's a camo index that displays via percentage how well you are blending into the environment, and even though areas around the Middle East are generally quite bright and open, it's still pretty simple to find solid hiding spots.
The first section is nearly identical to the demo that was playable at TGS/E For All. As Snake moves into the battlefield, militia are getting pinned down by the PMCs, and anyone who spots you -- whether they're militia or PMC -- will target you as an enemy. As you weave your way in and out of cover, you have the option of helping out the Militia, and by doing so, you'll earn their trust, and they'll help you out later on. Since everything is so frantic and sometimes difficult to distinguish who is Militia or PMC, one flick of L2 brings up your Solid Eye to reveal information such as the side on which the target is and other details such as their health level. While you're basically trying to get from point A to point B, there are generally multiple ways throughout the Middle East. In fact, I found a route that I had never seen before that netted me a few extra rations and other goods.
Unlike previous Metal Gear games, you can't initially use weaponry you get off enemies you kill. Weapons are coded to soldiers via Nanomachines that are imbedded in them, and to be able to use a weapon you find on the battlefield, you have to have the correct ID or it's basically worthless. So, it's nice that Otacon delivers you a few gifts early via your new robotic friend -- Metal Gear Mk. II. The Mk. II can be used to scout out in front of Snake, and although it can turn invisible, if it's spotted it will also sound the alert system. Just make sure you shock and knock out opponents before the PMC soldiers know what's going on, for safety's sake.
Ducking and slinking your way through the battlefield, it feels almost natural to pop a few PMCs while you're in first-person, but in third-person view you have a few options. There's a semi-lock-on system that you can use, but we found it most times to be inconsistent, especially if there are multiple targets around you. CQC is back and has been deepened, and you now can CQC attack enemies with one-handed and two-handed weapons. Two-handed weapons give you a smaller move set, and takedowns take more time to pull off. Since Snake uses cover quite often, especially leaning around buildings or pillars, you have the option of switching to either an over-the-shoulder view from the right side or the left side, which will help you see around many obstructions.
Since Snake became friendly with the Militia, later on in the level he had a much easier time getting through their Base. Cruising through the base, Snake encounters two extremely mysterious characters -- Drebin and Little Gray. While Snake isn't sure whether or not to be able to trust Drebin or his creepy soda-drinking monkey, Drebin is a gun launderer who plays a key role. He's got his hands in the ID chip process and can modify weaponry so Snake can use weapons that aren't linked to him. When searching bodies of soldiers, if Snake comes across duplicate weapons, the Mk. II will automatically deliver those weapons to Drebin in exchange for Drebin points. Earned points can be spent on unlocking weapons and purchasing weapons and ammunition -- which can be done at any time. Many of the weapons that you come across or purchase from Drebin can now also be modified. Want to add a different scope or a grenade launcher? Want to use different ammunition rounds or grenades? All it will take is having enough Drebin points to close the deal. Upon leaving, Drebin hands you an M4 -- a rifle that's heavily modifiable. The M4 was one of my new weapons of choice, since it has the ability to change firing modes from semi-automatic, to three-shot burst, to full auto-fire.
As Snake arrives at the building where his contact is, he gets held up by an extremely nervous soldier. When that soldier's squadmates show up to assist, Snake notices that the woman soldier in the group has a Foxhound logo on her chest. That woman -- Meryl -- turns out to be the contact who knows where Liquid is. She explains that this new Foxhound unit, which is comprised of Ed, Jonathan and series joke Akiba, is called Rat Patrol 01. As everyone becomes acquainted, Meryl tells Snake that the Nanomachines in each of the soldiers work together in a new SOP (Sons of the Patriots) system, which is something that allows each member of a squad to share senses and health status.
Suddenly Ed picks up word that Liquid's private army of Haven Troopers, the Frogs, have located Snake and the Rat Patrol, and the game's pace of stealth immediately switches into a run-and-gun event. As you work your way through the building with the squad, waves of Frogs leap in and out of cover, sticking to walls and peppering you with gunfire. Even though you're traveling through the area with the Rat Patrol, you're not included in their SOP. The Rat Patrol members also do a good job of not getting in your way, and while the introduction of the SOP system is cool, it would have been pretty interesting to have included it in the single-player story instead of just being a reference to how Metal Gear Online will work.
After getting through the Frogs, Snake and the Rat Patrol split up, and the game slows back into stealth mode where Snake infiltrates the Praying Mantis compound to locate and kill Liquid. Upon arrival, Liquid has a little surprise waiting for Snake and the soldiers. Suddenly all of the soldiers and Rat Pack members begin to drop to the ground and lose bodily functions. Some soldiers attack other soldiers and some collapse in pain. It seems that Liquid has discovered the ability to violently disrupt the soldiers' Nanomachines, and as Snake moves in to take a shot at Liquid he too becomes affected. Inches from successfully completing his mission, he fades into unconsciousness as Act 1 concludes.
At the end of each act, your in-game statistics are displayed. The game tracks such information as your total play time, continues, alert phases, kills, recovery and special items used, number of weapon types procured, and flashbacks watched. You can also earn bonus Drebin points in certain areas, including continues used, weapons procured, flashbacks watched, and use of special items. This means that making the most of your time using stealth, CQC and holding up soldiers will keep you fat with Drebin points.
Snake wakes up on Otacon's ship, and while I can't explain anything further with what happens in the game, I can say that between each of the acts Snake will be briefed on his next mission. Mission briefings are laid out in a unique multi-window view, and you can toggle between a number of different camera views as the briefing takes place. When all of the windows are open, a ticker gives you updates on other in-game stats as crawling time, crouch-walking time, time spent in the metal drum or box, and more. You can also pilot the Mk. II through the ship to find items, switch stations on a radio, and find other little secrets. Since these briefings are quite lengthy scenes, the interactive qualities make the experience much more interesting, yet we quickly learned that trying to focus on the story while fishing for hidden elements proved tricky at times.
Ultimately, for the next two days, we'd play the game from 8 a.m. until around 11 p.m., with two breaks for lunch and dinner. After dinner each night we could either go back and play, or relax, enjoy the onsen -- a lava-heated underground hot spring -- grab a cocktail, or go to bed early. Yet except for the first night, everyone blew off enjoying the surroundings and boarded the bus to go return and play until late in the evening. No one could get enough.
When originally shown in trailer form at Tokyo Game Show 2005, MGS4 more or less set the bar for what people could potentially expect from the PlayStation 3. From the first act alone, it's apparent that Kojima Productions has gotten a good handle on PlayStation 3 development. Everything in the Middle East oozes with atmosphere even though the environments are primarily brown, crumbly and drab. Snake looks phenomenal, and whether switching from a crouched position into dive, rolling into a lying-down state, then rolling onto his back to inch closer to an enemy -- whom he puts out flat with a CQC move -- everything comes together seamlessly. Sounds are crisp, and I often found myself lifting my headphones to check if sound was in-game or happening in the actual world around me. Fans of the previous Harry Gregson-Williams' music will also be in for a treat, as the soundtrack's score is brilliant.
As we boarded the bus to head back to the hotel late that first night, instead of being exhausted like we should have been from jet lag, everyone's heads were still reeling in what had transpired that day, and wanted to discuss their thoughts about the first act. A majority of us stayed up that night and had a few drinks with Kojima-san and got to ask him his philosophies behind certain game elements -- which was an incredible way to finish off the first day. All in all, it was obvious that Kojima-san was quite pleased to see us all enjoying ourselves.
As a big fan of the series, I have to say I was pretty blown away with just my first hours with the game. Even though it is paced quite well with intense stealth, action, deep plot points and comedic relief, the amount of revelations that unfold in the first act is remarkable. For someone who is very familiar with the lore, I was quite happy with all of the little touches and fan service elements that are sprinkled throughout the first portion of the game.
With only two months until launch, it's time to dust off your old MGS games, dig out your memory cards, and become reacquainted with your old friend Snake. While I've already played through the game, I'm looking forward to getting my hands on the final version to see what suggestions that people submitted actually made a difference -- plus, there's all of Metal Gear Online still to be explored. Based on the first act alone, Kojima Productions has set the stage for Snake's finale to play out in nothing short of epic style. Get ready Metal Gear fans ? June 12 can't come soon enough.
This preview was based on a development build of the game.

What are the Signatures?
I had been a member of the old forums at the now defunct maccentral.com. Like most forums you were given the option to include a graphic at the end of your posts, in the same fashion as a signature on a business letter. The difference is i changed them every day.
Why did you change them every day?
In the same way that a jogger needs a few stretches in the morning before they barrel out the door, i used the signatures to throw around graphic ideas, colour combinations, or any fluffy concept i'm not sure about.
Most of the time the ideas stay in the signature, but every so often a project gets a helping hand from an effect or a wordplay i think worked well. Ideas are ideas.
Any examples to look at?
You can take your pick from below. The pages themselves are quite graphic heavy. This is simply an archive of the notions that were flung around a room in the course of a design project.

WTVQ-TV's Greg Stotelmyer has the raw video of Richie Farmer answering reporters' questions about his political future. Farmer says that running for governor or secretary of state are both "certainly a possibility."
Running for governor?
Well, (I) don't know for sure yet, but that is certainly a very real possibility.
Top of ticket or running mate?
Well, there's a lot of talk about, you know, this and that and I guess the main thing that I'm concerned with doing right now is making sure that it's the right thing for my family. You know, I've got three young boys, 13, 11 and 8 and, you know, a very beautiful wife and, you know, I think my first duty is to them. So, (I've) got to make sure it's the right thing for us, first, and then we'll decided what we do.
Concerned about the rigors of the campaign?
Yes. Absolutely. You know, and obviously a run for governor is a huge time commitment and something that you have to be dedicated to. So, (I've) got to make sure that's something that would be the right thing for your family.
Considering a run for secretary of state?
Well, I mean all of those things are possibilities, but as I say, I really haven't made that decision. And, that's something that all those things are something that I'll factor into my decision making process. But, family first.
Are you considering Secretary of State as well as governor?
Well, as I said, it's certainly a possibility. I mean, you know, and I guess they say that it's good to have all those opportunities available. But, we'll see what happens.
Do you have a self-imposed deadline for making a decision?
Well, I don't know exactly when, but I think by late summer early fall, we'll need to make a decision.
Get in there before 2010 election?
Different people will tell you different things. I think there's pros and cons with both. But those are all things that will be talked about and thought about during the process.
Who do you consider the strongest Republican that you would most want to be associated with on the ticket?
Well, again that's something that I've not gotten to you yet, but again will be part of the process and things that we'll be talking about. But I haven't made any of those determinations.
Is geographic balance important on the ticket?
Well, I think it's important to have somebody that believes a lot of the same, has a lot of the same principles and values that you have. And, different people will say it's important to have somebody from a different part of the state. But, I don't think that's necessarily true.
Have you talked to other Republican leaders about your decision?
I'm like a lot of other people, I hear a lot of things. So, you just kind of go by some of the things that you're hearing, but (I) haven't really had any of the major discussions with people yet to see what people are thinking about or, you know, who's thinking of what because I hear a lot of things about myself sometimes and I wonder how it gets out there. So, there's obviously people who put things out there. But, it will be interesting to see, you know, what happens in the next few months.
Has Mitch McConnell or some other GOP leader told you what to do?
No. Nobody has really tried to instruct me on anything that I need to do at this point.
Private jobs? Are you interested in a job with UK Athletics administration?
Well that was a, I'll tell you, I hear that a lot too and somebody once asked me, 'If the AD position came available at the U of K would I be interested, and obviously I said, 'absolutely, I would.' You know, growing up in Kentucky and dreaming about playing there and getting to live that dream, athletics is something that's been very much a part of my life. I have a real passion for it. So, it would have been something I'm interested in. But, I'm not sitting around waiting to be appinted AD of UK. You know, we have an AD there now and things are going very well. So, we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
Are you concerned about academics in UK athletics? The Bledsoe situation?
Well, obviously anytime there's something, you know, that comes up that could harm the program, or you know, cause them to be on probation, I was there and endured some of that and it's not very pleasant for players. so, it's concerning but at this point and time we'll just have to kind of wait and see what happens. I don't think there's anyting that we've done at this point that's concerning his transcript. So, we'll just have to see the details.

Metaphor and games
Yesterday it occurred to me that the choice of metaphor in XP might determine the "playfulness" of the project. (For the idea of projects as a game and the importance of playfulness, see here – here – and here.)
In developing my blog tool – see here – I chose the name "Burger" because I thought the phrase "Powered by Burger" was funny. The name of my powerbook is also "Burger", because at Oops we name our computers after stuff you can eat. But the name made me think about having as metaphor the "assembly" of burgers at Burger King – not too far from the assembly line metaphor of the original XP project at Daimler-Chrysler, but indeed a more playful one.
The blog entries stored as text files in the file system, along with the templates that determine how they will be displayed, and the step by step processing of each blog entry, might be thought of as if they were burger ingredients, chosen according to the criteria given by the customer: "No onion, but lots of mustard." Perhaps a bit far-fetched a metaphor, but the playfulness of it might make a difference for the project.
Either you can choose the "naïve" metaphor, mapping directly to the "real" world – in this case with blog entries, templates, collectors with criterias, transformers of content, and so on. Or you can choose a more "metaphoric" metaphor, such as "assembly line" to raise the level of playfulness of the project. Or you can go all the way and choose a goofy metaphor, such as "burger assembly", if you dare to. Imagine hearing executives explaining the system as being "a Burger King" to customers or investors.
I think a playful metaphor can really make a difference in a project. The metaphor strongly affects the vocabulary used in discussing the system and if the vocabulary is playful, the project will be playful. Design discussions will definitely be more fun. For the burger assembly metaphor, instead of thinking of a feature to "transform" content, you could call it "frying". Instead of "assembling a publishable", you could call it "wrapping up a burger". And so on.

Here is my official before pictures for 2009, weighing in at somewhere between 228 to 226lbs. I have been fighting the same 2 pounds all year. This was taken last night at my SIL's b-day party.
My goal is to weigh at least 175 by the end of the year, which is what I weighed when I graduated high school. I was considered fine back then, not to fat, not to skinny. That would leave me still needing to lose 30lbs to be at my ideal weight. I don't know that I want to get down to 130, maybe 140ish we will see.
I have not been losing the way I would like to�so starting tomorrow I will measure everything that I eat. If I can�t count it I can�t eat it. I will measure everything that goes into my mouth for the next week. I have been measuring pretty much everything but my meats. I have a scale so there is really no reason for me guesstimating on them. The only excuse I have is just flat out being lazy. It really makes no sense, I am taking the time to measure my veggies and my carbs so why wouldn�t I measure my meats, pure laziness plain and simple. No more eating out and guessing on what the serving size is either. I will pack my lunch and only eat what I am certain about the calories on. I have been half assing and getting half ass results no ones fault but my own.
It took me eight long weeks to get out of the 230s but I did it. I would love to make it out of the 220s but mid August. Here is to giving it may all.
DH broke my liquid measuring cup about a week ago. I have been measuring things with one of my daugher's bottles until I can get to the store to buy a new one. My mother always said where there is a will there is a way. So I am working with what I got.
I have been thinking and we have 6 months left in the year. I am going to set a short term goal to reach onederland by 12/30/08. I weigh in on Tuesdays and this is the last Tuesday of the year. I believe I can lose 36 pounds by the end of the year. That would put me at 196 lbs and also get me to my second 10% goal.

Bond No. 9 is best known for naming its collection of niche fragrances after New York neighborhoods. But its latest flacon commemorates the day same-sex marriage became legal in the Empire State. Its I Love New York for Marriage Equality features a rainbow-colored heart with the date 7.24.11 and smells of cinnamon, plum, ginger lily, and rose. Oh, and it's unisex, obviously. [Racked]

Kim Kardashian has cut off her signature long, raven-hued mane! Or so a new series of paparazzi photos would have you believe. Turns out, the is-she-or-isn't-she girlfriend of Kanye West was sporting a wispy pixie cut wig for a Vogue Italia shoot. [Mirror]
Speaking of trendy haircuts, real or fake, new research alleges that asymmetrical dos that leave one eye covered for a lengthy period of time could actually cause long-term health problems, like lazy eyes. All the more reason to embrace the side-sweep. [Fox News]

Anthony Musgrave (entomologist)
Anthony Musgrave (9 July 1895 – 4 June 1959) was an Australian entomologist. Born in Queensland, Australia, he is known for penning Bibliography of Australian Entomology (1932). He was the great-nephew of Anthony Musgrave[1][2] who was Secretary of State for the Colonies.
Early life[edit]
Anthony Musgrave was born 9 July 1895[3] in Cooktown, Queensland, Australia.[1] His father was Anthony Musgrave, a civil servant, and his mother was Elizabeth Anne (née Colles).[1] He studied at the Hayfield Preparatory School in Homebush and the Sydney Church of England Grammar School.[1]
As an entomologist, Musgrave is known for his 1932 work, Bibliography of Australian Entomology.[4] He worked at the Australian Museum,[5] initially as a librarian for a year,[2] before climbing up the ranks to become Assistant Entomologist,[6] and eventually the museum's entomologist,[7] a title later changed to "Curator of Insects and Arachnids".[8] He displayed much knowledge on insects[9] and arachnids; his area of expertise were ticks and poisonous spiders. Musgrave was compiler of all of the Australian Science Abstracts' animal-related articles for around twenty years, until in 1957 when the publication folded.[2] He was also a contributor to the Australian Encyclopaedia (editions 1 and 2).[2]
Personal life and death[edit]
Musgrave was described as an "excellent lecturer and photographer".[1] He led a luxurious and peaceful life and was an avid golfer.[1] In his later years, little was heard about him; Musgrave did not like publicity.[1] He died at the Royal North Shore Hospital in Sydney on 4 June 1959.[1] The cause of death was listed as heart disease.[1]

Oh man, a Bombcast being uploaded when it's still tuesday in Sweden?! This is a rare occurence, indeed! And it's not a short one, either...!

I've listened to literally EVERY episode and it's always only been tangentially about video games. At least, that's the running gag. What Bombcast have you been listening to?
I used to listen to the Bombcast, but then I took a kick to the dick.
Vi- Vinny is back? My eyes is getting watery as if I just won an Oscar.
VINNY! *faints*
*high fives*
VINNY! *faints*
Fuck yes for Vinny being back. Thank Jesus.
Not so much with the Saints Row talk. Game really isn't that good.
inb4 some weirdo interprets Ryan's "oh man the people we had to fill that chair with!" as genuine hatred for Will Smith and Navarro.
I love that Vinny pre-ordered a turkey.
No "new" tag on the podcast tab. Good thing I clicked through anyway.

You're welcome, guys.
I grow increasingly worried that Saints Row: The Third is going to put up a fight for game of the year, which seems absolutely insane to me.
We didn't stuff our turkey either. You can cook a turkey in many ways.
I used to not post about the bombcast, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

I'm pretty sure Asians would have been next in line for extinction. Though they might not have seen it coming.
which is why I'll never be a dancer.
I've been watching Xena and I'm pretty sure all my neighbors know it because of the yelling noise I make every other second. I mean—they can't confuse the "Xena yell" with anything else, right?
It's weird to be away from home for a long time just to come back to find your mother's personality has entirely changed. I can hear her from upstairs yelling at the Carolina Game "OH, COME ON GUYS!"….
Since when did my mom start talking to televisions—first off—and since when did she become a football fan?
Is this part of the "big change"?
I have an audition and I have to be a "crying girl"!! The only thing that really ever makes me cry is Destiny's Child and movie trailers.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. Destiny's Child mixed with the Harry Potter 7 trailer will just distract me from my goal.
People say something trying to impress you but you're already pretty unimpressed by this person to even think that something they say is worth listening to, but they keep going on about it anyway just because they want to feel better about themselves even though they're not really ALL THAT AND A BAG OF CHIPS.
So I recently befriended this guy that I had a crush on in middle school & today he facebook chatted me!! Obviously this was one of my tween fantasies come true so I wanted to sound funny & like the "girl that got away".
This is where our conversation has ended at the moment:Me we had a disaster of a toilet clog (via him) last thursday and now I and the other therapists have to teach him what to do…if that were to happen again…he went from tuesday to thursday with his toilet being clogged, shitting in it STILL, without telling me…FML Josh ohhhh that's no good Me yeah, he's 18… Josh I like that you put (via him) just so I would know it wasn't one of your massive turds that clogged up the toilet hahaha
…my tween fantasy sucks
I'm at my grandma's house for the day because later tonight we're celebrating my
22nd birthday. Eek…
Anyway, my great grandma lives with my grandparents and she asked me to wheel her into her bedroom to look for a piece of jewelry. She proceeded to look for a pin to wear to my party, but couldn't find it.
My grandma came in and pointed out to my great grandma that she was already wearing it. This is the conversation that took place:
Grandma: Well mom, you already have your pin on your sweater.
Great Grandma: Well why in the world did you pin it up so high? I can't even see it.
Grandma: Well did you want me to pin it by your booby?
Great Grandma: Well I would have been able to find it! (Looking at me) I never had boobs when I was growing up either Kayla.
Me: Okay, thanks.
Great Grandma: Now that I don't need boobs, I have big ones. Want to see a 91 year old ladies boobs?
Grandma: Mom, put your shirt back down.
I woke up this morning feeling really bad, listened to an Alexi Murdoch song—which made me feel worse—and then started facebook chatting with a guy I always wanted to be better friends with. I almost asked him to coffee just so that I could get to know him better, but his facebook chat box returned my message saying that he had gone offline.
Now I'm back to Alexi Murdoch feeling worse than I did before.
It's funny when people interrupt what you're saying and go, "Oh, I thought you were going to say _________(something sexually explicit)." Most of the time this happens when the conversation is least sexually explicit like:
1. At church—the preacher's praying and goes, "Bow down and let Jesus come inside you."
Really, church is the #1 place for these types of interruptions (via your own mind or someone else's).
Anyway, it's always funny/creepy to hear the perverted thoughts of others—though I suppose example 1. is your own mind being a boner.
Thank you Christina for my Morning Hard On.
I was facebook stalking some random guy friend of an acquaintance I have. I was looking over his just uploaded wedding photos & kept wondering—-"seriously?"
Both bride and groom look hardly over 18 and both have Trump/Bieber comb overs.
Anyway, I realized today that I can't really be nice so I think me wasting another day trying is pointless.
Hopefully she's just knocked up & their trying to cover up the blunder. Crisis
overted averted (thank you spell check).
I can't decide if it's really smart of my cat to drink from the faucet or if she's too dumb to find her water dish…
My roommate has Asperger's Syndrome. Today has been pretty interesting:
1. We're on the elevator with some random guy who gets off on our floor with us. My roommate goes, "He's hot," just loud enough for the guy to have heard. I said "
roommate, you don't say things like that when people can hear you." He says, "But I'm bi-."
Today my roommate's bi.
2. I get upstairs and a friend is at my house. My friend asks to use my roommate's bathroom. My roommate says, "Okay but it's pretty shitty in there." My roommate clogged up the toilet on Tuesday and has been shitting in it ever since.
Today my roommate plunged through shit.
I'm suppose to be practicing being a nice person but it really is not working out well.
And that is my life as a sitcom. Thanks for watching.
And of course the annoying Asian kid that works with me is the first person to call me today.
There is a guy that follows my Twitter that reminds me of Dwight off of "The Office" (if I were Michael)…
1. He annoys me.
2. He is balding.
3. He is taller than me.
Like Michael I keep this person around because of their love for paper products & because of the attention I get from them.
According to the Wall Street Journal today, sexting is fast becoming the new method of choice for wannabe sex-offenders. Writers state that minors involved in sexting rings "don't know what they're doing when they use erotically suggestive material in their text messages."
Little Doris told the paper that sexting was just a fun way of getting noticed these days. "Everyone does it—and it's not like I'm being, like, a slut or anything."
Researchers polled "ten thousand" fourteen year olds and asked them which was worse: sending a sext or getting exted*?
*Exting, according to urban dictionary, is when you get drunk and start texting your old ex-boy/girlfriends.
Of the "ten thousand' fourteen year olds polled, 68.993% said that they'd rather receive a sext than an ext.
"I aint wanna no if u gonna kummova an git sumo dis shit. gettn a ext iz like da worlds cummn to a end," Ty Wilsen.
Of the "ten thousand" fourteen year olds polled, 48.2% said they were guilty of exting while all labeled themselves as having posed nude for a camera at least once in their lifetimes.
Researchers wonder if this is a wave of the future or if it is a statement of the past…
I think facebook is one big conspiracy to turn average world citizens into interweb hoarders. If I cleaned out all the "friends" that I had on facebook and used the following criteria to do so:
1. I don't talk to you.
2. I don't talk about you.
3. I don't know you
Then I'd be left with MAYBE 10 people.
"Of course this would be
internet-social-suicide", says Mark Zuckerberg, "and everyone knows that that is worse than hoarding."
Mathematically (and statistically) it is better to be a hoarder than a loser without any facebook friends. Hoarders, like the Duggers, have their own television show for Christ's sake!!
Anyway, that's the conspiracy that's been scratching at my mind. My only hiccup is trying to figure out why Jews would do something like this…
I have always imagined myself doing stand up comedy, running onstage with a mic in my hands, tripping and playing it off like it wasn't fake. I don't know why I imagine that—I already know it wouldn't be funny.
I'll make your shit fit anywhere.
Fuck you, _____________.
Makes me feel 16 again for about 16 seconds…
And this is the point in the dream when I feel weird and wake up.
Slut teasing is hard.
How to be a slut-tease (this term is now copyrighted by me because I claim it to be):
1. Give a guy a LOT of attention.
2. Tell him you love the movie "Home Alone".
3. If he starts rambling about sports, pretend to be interested. Make eye contact until the conversation goes WAY over your head then stare quickly at something else and act grossed out. He'll immediately ask you what's wrong and you can pretend that some lady with cottage cheese legs just walked by…
4. Always say you love zombies—especially Nazi zombies.
5. Always say that you're in multiple relationships & you're not looking for a long-term anything.
6. Never wear a thong. Don't wear granny-panties. Black always looks good & lying about sometimes going comando is acceptable.
7. Never have sex with the guys you see; this defeats the purpose of being a tease. You may do whatever else you like—but no plunger in the toilet.
8. If sleeping over at the guys house for the first time—try to sneak out in the morning before he wakes up.
9. If the guy is sleeping over at your house—make sure you do not kiss him before he leaves. Something on the cheek or neck is okay, BUT NO MOUTH.
10. *Never see the same guy two nights in a row & don't respond to text messages sent to you past midnight*
It's nice to know that even though I haven't posted in 2 months, I still have at least a handful of followers on tumblr…
There's even a new thing called "photo-reply"—wicked awesome!
Is this what being a grown up is like?

They make a legal design jam.
A legal design jam is an event where lawyers meet non lawyers and they together work on a legal document to make it over. Massively.
Lately I'm bothering everyone about going to the Legal Design Jam that Stefania Passera and Giorgio Trono have organized in Milan, on February 11.
That's not my usual habit and that's a reason for it. No, wait, at least 3.
3 reasons why you should go either you are a lawyer or an information architect, a designer, a UX person.
A legal design jam is a battle against legalese. No one -not even lawyers- understands this convulse mixture of jargon and convoluted syntax. And well, maybe everyone is free to use whatever the ugliest jargon he wants to (although I contend also this - startup people have their jargon too and it gets on my nerves). But at least this is out of question when it comes to the Law. Law _must _be clear. Period.
Design is not only about the nice frills and colors you put around. Visualization is not only something that makes information clearer. Visualization is information. Said another way, some information could never possibly be read and understood without savvy visualization (think about big data).
The Legal Design Jam is in Milan. That would be a chance to gather the small Italian legal-tech community. All together in one place, think of it. We would make an easy target for old school lawyers, if they ever decided to clear us out.
Well, I'm taking the risk. Are you meeting me there?

Sanet y Negrals Holiday Homes & Villas(7)
Didn't find what you're looking for?
View all 3790 Javea, Moraira and Denia area Holiday homes or all 7744 Alicante - Costa Blanca Holiday villas & apartments
The pretty town of Sanet y Negrals is located around 15km inland from Denia, on Spain's sunny Costa Blanca. Surrounded by mountains, but close to busy towns and cities, Sanet (as the name is sometimes shortened to) is a relaxing and well-positioned base from which to explore this enticing region. The town dates back over 300 years, and has managed to retain its traditional feel, being popular with, but not over-run by, tourists.
Situated on the slopes of the Sierra Segaria mountain range, Sanet y Negrals is a peaceful destination that is a far cry from some of the tourist-packed spots along the coast. Amenities within the village centre include two bakeries, two groceries, a bank, a chemist, a butcher, and a number of small restaurants and cafe bars. This is more than enough to enjoy a self-catering holiday, and if you simply want to relax in your holiday rental villa for the duration of your stay, you will have little need to leave the village.
For everyone else, however, the use of a car is almost vital to make the most of your stay in Sanet y Negrals, as many of the local attractions are a few minutes' drive away. This includes the nearest beaches, which are ten minutes away at Las Marinas and Les Poblets. Although Sanet y Negrals has enough to offer in the way of shopping, a ten-minute (7km) journey will also take you to Ondara, home of the largest shopping centre in the region.
Perhaps the best thing about Sanet y Negrals is its location, as a number of interesting towns and cities are just a short journey away. This includes Denia (15km), which is the home of a castle that dates back to the 11th century and an excellent local history museum. Several of the excellent beaches of the Costa Blanca can be also reached within just an hour's drive, and the same can be said for busy tourist resorts such as Benidorm (51km) – providing you with a number of options should you decide to escape the relative serenity of Sanet y Negrals.
The weather in the Javea, Moraira and Denia area is nothing short of suburb, making a holiday in Sanet y Negrals even more enjoyable. The vast majority of days receive at least a few hours of sunshine, and though summer temperatures are extremely pleasant, they are rarely sweltering hot and uncomfortable. Even during winter months the temperature in Sanet y Negrals averages a pleasant 15C.
Alicante Airport (ALC) and Valencia Airport (VLC) can be used for getting to Sanet y Negrals, with both airports around an hour away by car. Alicante generally has the cheaper flights from the UK, with a number of budget operators heading to this destination, particularly during summer months.

Smashing Pumpkins ticket in hand for Halloween at the Barclay Center show! Frankly, I'm tickled.
I know, I know: they're not the same Pumpkins. Call me naive, but that's a good thing. Corgan, like the best of narcissists, could use some underdog status, and right now he's got it.
The current line-up, which includes wunderkind Mikey Byrne, the very nice Nicole Fiorentino on bass, and Jeff "Shredder" Schroeder, can flat out play. It feels like a band, unlike the 2007-2008 iteration that spawned the rightfully-panned Zeitgeist, which saw Corgan coming to terms with his failures in the ugliest of fashions.
But since announcing his absurd 44 song-cycle Teargarden by Kaleidescope project, Corgan appears to have regained his Occult mojo. The Songs for a Sailor EP, Vol I (of XI?) of the Teargarden cycle, was a pleasant surprise, with the title track and "Astral Planes" retaining the spirit of the band that recorded Mellon Collie while exploring new territory. Even the cover design looks like something out of "Magic: The Gathering."
The momentum's continued with the excellent Oceania, the first LP since Corgan's 2008 announcement the band would no longer record any such thing.
Against all odds, Corgan & company seem to be in a fertile creative period. The Halloween show (and I can't think of anyone I'd rather see on Halloween) should be a celebration, then, of the true resurrection of the band, not as nostalgia reunion shtick, but an actual creative force worth paying attention to. I plan to enjoy while it lasts and keep my fingers crossed they bring the pain on non-album tracks As Rome Burns.

TJ's Auto & 8th Street Auto Race Night Almost Washed Out
Posted under Race Reports by Chris Budzban on June 4th, 2005
By Mary Langreck
June 4, 2005; Marshfield, WI: – Marshfield Super Speedway extends a "Big Thank You" to all the races, fans and families that stuck it out through the inclement weather this Saturday.
The TJ's Auto and 8th Street Auto Merle Weinfurter Memorial got under way with a very late start. Rain showers from Mother Nature caused practice and qualifying to be washed out and an extensive drying period. A short practice session commenced with only Super Lates and Super Stocks qualifying. 4-Cylinder and 1-Man Cruiser races were lined-up by average times. Ben Pettis scored his first fast time of the 2005 season in the Super Late Models and Andy Simonis took the top in the Super Stocks.
An excellent field of CARQUEST Super Late Models came to race with rookie Tim Hintz and John Totzke Jr. grabbing the top spots in the semi-feature and earning starting positions in the feature race. The first three laps of the feature were led by John Frazier. Jeff Weinfurter quickly moved past him to take the lead. The first caution flew on lap five as Eugene Gregorich Jr.'s car spun coming out of turn four. Gregorich was holding the third spot and spun in front of the field which attempted to miss him, but several cars sustained damage with Elliott Weiler and Eric Wisz forced to end their competition for the night. Weinfurter continued his lead for the restart with Chris Weinkauf, Frazier, Dean LaPointe and Rick Grunden all vying for the top spots. Fast timer Ben Pettis made his move into the top five on lap seven. Pettis began to chase LaPointe for the fourth position and pulled up along side of him and inched ahead to take over fourth. With only four laps remaining, the caution was thrown putting Weinfurter back two spots for a pick a lane. Weinkauf then took the lead. Weinfurter rallied back after the restart to take second. Weinkauf took the win with Weinfurter second, Mark Eswein made a phenomenal return after having to pit from damaged caused at the first caution to take home third. John Frazier took fourth and Pettis fifth. The pick a lane call was later reviewed and reversed with the win declared a tie between Weinkauf and Weinfurter.
The Super Stocks put an exciting show for the fans in their 24 lap feature race in honor of Merle's race number 24. Randy Emmerich took the early lead from his pole position start. Denny Jo Crass held strong in second, but Wes Coon wasted no time working by him grabbing second on lap four. Emmerich stretched out his lead as Travis Zvolena, Bo Bennish, Coon and Colin Wilcott all fought for the second position. The caution flew on lap 11 for a spin involving Crass and Matt Raykowski. When the race resumed, Emmerich had lost his sizeable lead allowing Bennish and Cale Laessig to challenge him for the lead. Both got by him and began battling for that top spot. With nine laps remaining Laessig pulled ahead of Bennish to be scored the leader. Meanwhile fast timer Simonis had moved up into third. Wilcott had been working on Emmerich for fourth and moved to the inside of him entering turn one. Wilcott took the spot for the next circuit. Zvolena was then able to move up to take fifth from Emmerich. Bennish tried, but was unable to retake the lead. Laessig scored another checkered, Bennish second, Simonis third, Wilcott fourth and Zvolena fifth.
The 23 four-cylinder cars that came to race put on another great feature too. Newcomer Dale Robinson won the semi-feature and Brad Lueck took second to earn their starts in the feature. Derk Hauser led the first seven laps of the feature until Steve Stewart passed him for the lead. Lots of three and sometimes four wide racing throughout the entire feature. The father-son team of Kevin and Adam Eckes battled over the fourth spot. Stewart held out for the win, Derk Hauser took second, his father Steve Hauser raced up to third, Adam Eckes fourth and JJ Flick moved up to take fifth.
The 1-Man Cruiser feature was dominated by Cody Meyer with Dave Knauf coming in a close second, Justin Moore third and Wayne Dietz fifth.

Assembled in the afternoon and cooked later. Used only 9 lasagna noodles, half and half instead of heavy cream, and pecorino romano instead of parm in the sauce. I topped with panko crumbs instead of more cheese. Taste was good but not great. Time consuming to prepare like most "from scratch" lasagnas.

Miami, FL (SportsNetwork.com) - A Florida jury convicted 23-year-old Eric Rivera on Monday in the shooting death of former Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor during a botched robbery in 2007.
Taylor, 24, was shot in the upper leg during an attempted robbery of his Miami-area home on Nov. 27, 2007. The bullet wound damaged the femoral artery in Taylor's leg, causing significant blood loss.
Rivera, who was 17 at the time of the shooting, was found guilty of second- degree murder and armed burglary with assault. He faces a possible sentence of life in prison, though the death penalty is not an option because he was a teenager at the time of the crime.
Three of the five defendants in the murder case still await trial, while a fourth previously pled guilty and accepted a 29-year sentence in exchange for his cooperation against the others if called to testify.
Taylor was in his fourth NFL season, all with the Redskins, who selected him with the fifth overall pick of the 2004 NFL Draft.

ZDNet App Wrap: March 25, 2013
Summary: This week, our app eyes peer at Coffice, Phone Rights, Telco Navigator, Podcasts, Google Keep, Newsify, Group Play, and RealPlayer.
2 of 8Image
(Image: Sebastian Sauer)
Platform: Android
Price: Free
It's alpha quality, but what we have here is the start of a new office suite on Android.
Based on Calligra Suite that is used in MeeGo, Coffice currently only supports OpenDocument Text (.odt) files.
Since this app is backed by KDE community, it needs the Ministro app installed to provide the Qt libraries that KDE apps rely on. This app is also licenced under the LGPLv2, so you can go picking through the source if you like.
(Image: Bizer Mobile)
Phone Rights
Price: Free
Phone Rights is backed by the Australian Communications Consumer Action Network (ACCAN) and is designed to allow users to test their reception, and log where and when they are experiencing call dropouts, delayed text messages, and slow internet so that they can make a complaint to their provider.
"This app is the ultimate guide for customers about their rights as a phone or internet customer," said ACCAN spokeswoman Elise Davidson. "The rules around telecommunications can be really confusing for customers, and this app makes it simple for consumers to figure out how to get a problem fixed."
That's ACAAN's side of the story, now let's see what users think of this app:
"Crashes every time. Disappointing because it is a good idea and has some good info on how to proceed with complaints," said a so-called Mark Walker on the Google Play store.
And in case you think it is merely another Android crash issue, here is an iPhone users called Donks21 that left a review: "Great concept, but unfortunately, I can't log my issue after taking pic of low signals? App still has bugs, looking forward to update."
In summary: A great app in theory, not quite so great in practice.

Telco Navigator
Platform: iPad
Price: Free
Attention telco fiends bearing iPads, here is an app that aims to consolidate the legislative and regulatory documents that telco workers (and curious wonks) need.
Telco Navigator contains 300 documents, which are available offline as well.
Kick off your day with ZDNet's daily email newsletter. It's the freshest tech news and opinion, served hot. Get it.

Cinnamon and Honey: Two Power-Packed Natural Healers
Hayley Russell, Guest Writer
Waking Times
Honey is the only food on the planet that will not spoil or rot. What it will do is what some call 'turning to sugar'. In reality, honey is always honey. However, when left in a cool dark place for a long time it will "crystallize". When this happens loosen the lid, boil some water and sit the honey container in the hot water, but turn off the heat and let it liquefy naturally. It is then as good as it ever was. Never boil honey or put it in a microwave. This will kill the enzymes in the honey.
Cinnamon and Honey
Bet the drug companies won't like this one getting around. Facts on Honey and Cinnamon: It is found that a mixture of honey and cinnamon cures most diseases. Honey is produced in most of the countries of the world. Scientists of today also accept honey as a 'Ram Ban' (very effective) medicine for all kinds of diseases. Honey can be used without side effects for any kind of diseases. Today's science says that even though honey is sweet, when it is taken in the right dosage as a medicine, it does not harm even diabetic patients. Researched by western scientists:
HEART DISEASES: Make a paste of honey and cinnamon powder, apply it on bread instead of jelly and jam and eat it regularly for breakfast. It reduces the cholesterol in the arteries and saves the patient from heart attack. Also, those who have already had an attack, when they do this process daily, they are kept miles away from the next attack. Regular use of the above process relieves loss of breath and strengthens the heart beat. In America and Canada, various nursing homes have treated patients successfully and have found that as one ages the arteries and veins lose their flexibility and get clogged; honey and cinnamon revitalize the arteries and the veins.
ARTHRITIS: Arthritis patients may take daily (morning and night) one cup of hot water with two tablespoons of honey and one small teaspoon of cinnamon powder. When taken regularly even chronic arthritis can be cured. In a recent research conducted at the Copenhagen University, it was found that when the doctors treated their patients with a mixture of one tablespoon honey and half teaspoon Cinnamon powder before breakfast, they found that within a week (out of the 200 people so treated) practically 73 patients were totally relieved of pain — and within a month, most all the patients who could not walk or move around because of arthritis now started walking without pain.
BLADDER INFECTIONS: Take two tablespoons of cinnamon powder and one teaspoon of honey in a glass of lukewarm water and drink it. It destroys the germs in the bladder.
CHOLESTEROL: Two tablespoons of honey and three teaspoons of Cinnamon Powder mixed in 16 ounces of tea water given to a cholesterol patient was found to reduce the level of cholesterol in the blood by 10 percent within two hours. As mentioned for arthritic patients, when taken three times a day, any chronic cholesterol is cured. According to information received in the said Journal, pure honey taken with food daily relieves complaints of cholesterol.
COLDS: Those suffering from common or severe colds should take one tablespoon lukewarm honey with 1/4 spoon cinnamon powder daily for three days. This process will cure most chronic cough, cold, and, clear the sinuses.
UPSET STOMACH: Honey taken with cinnamon powder cures stomach ache and also clears stomach ulcers from its root. GAS: According to the studies done in India and Japan, it is revealed that when Honey is taken with cinnamon powder the stomach is relieved of gas.
IMMUNE SYSTEM: Daily use of honey and cinnamon powder strengthens the immune system and protects the body from bacterial and viral attacks. Scientists have found that honey has various vitamins and iron in large amounts. Constant use of Honey strengthens the white blood corpuscles (where DNA is contained) to fight bacterial and viral diseases.
INDIGESTION: Cinnamon powder sprinkled on two tablespoons of honey taken before food is eaten relieves acidity and digests the heaviest of meals
INFLUENZA: A scientist in Spain has proved that honey contains a natural 'Ingredient' which kills the influenza germs and saves the patient from flu.
LONGEVITY: Tea made with honey and cinnamon powder, when taken regularly, arrests the ravages of old age. Use four teaspoons of honey, one teaspoon of cinnamon powder, and three cups of boiling water to make a tea. Drink 1/4 cup, three to four times a day. It keeps the skin fresh and soft and arrests old age. Life spans increase and even a 100 year old will start performing the chores of a 20-year-old.
RASPY OR SORE THROAT: When throat has a tickle or is raspy, take one tablespoon of honey and sip until gone. Repeat every three hours until throat is without symptoms.
PIMPLES: Three tablespoons of honey and one teaspoon of cinnamon powder paste. Apply this paste on the pimples before sleeping and wash it off the next morning with warm water. When done daily for two weeks, it removes all pimples from the root.
SKIN INFECTIONS:Applying honey and cinnamon powder in equal parts on the affected parts cures eczema, ringworm and all types of skin Infections.
WEIGHT LOSS: Daily in the morning one half hour before breakfast and on an empty stomach, and at night before sleeping, drink honey and cinnamon powder boiled in one cup of water. When taken regularly, it reduces the weight of even the most obese person. Also, drinking this mixture regularly does not allow the fat to accumulate in the body even though the person may eat a high calorie diet.
CANCER: Recent research in Japan and Australia has revealed that advanced cancer of the stomach and bones have been cured successfully. Patients suffering from these kinds of cancer should daily take one tablespoon of honey with one teaspoon of cinnamon powder three times a day for one month.
FATIGUE: Recent studies have shown that the sugar content of honey is more helpful rather than being detrimental to the strength of the body. Senior citizens who take honey and cinnamon powder in equal parts are more alert and flexible. Dr. Milton, who has done research, says that a half tablespoon of honey taken in a glass of water and sprinkled with cinnamon powder, even when the vitality of the body starts to decrease, when taken daily after brushing and in the afternoon at about 3:00 P.M., the vitality of the body increases within a week.
BAD BREATH: People of South America, gargle with one teaspoon of honey and cinnamon powder mixed in hot water first thing in the morning so their breath stays fresh throughout the day.
HEARING LOSS: Daily morning and night honey and cinnamon powder, taken in equal parts restores hearing. Remember when we were kids? We had toast with real butter and cinnamon sprinkled on it!

Here are two great sources for tasty cinammon and raw honey (you want to make sure you have raw, unrefined honey to reap it's benefits!)
The article mentions ' Honey can be used without side effects for any kind of diseases.' Which yes is true BUT children under the age of 1 year can be at risk of botulism and honey should NOT be given to babies under the age of 1.
The more I read about honey the more obvious it becomes that it is a true miracle food. I try and cook with honey as much as possible, and it just feels like the right thing to do. I will definitely add cinnamon to the mix. Thanks for the info.
According to 5,000 year old Ayurvedic medicine, one should never ever cook honey, as it changes it's properties, and the honey, when cooked, will then cause the blood to thicken, which of course places you at more risk of stroke and less oxygenation of cells throughout the body, which will lead to additional problems.
So I would suggest adding honey to a cupful of water that has boiled and had cinnamon added after a few minutes have passed when the water is no longer boiling temperature, so as to preserve the medicinal properties of the honey.
Only raw, unpasteurized, unheated and untreated honey, organic as the bees will not have fed on GM crops or pesticides, will be what you really want, as most honey sold is fake and most of that which is not is ruined by filtering and pasteurization.
The benefits of the Honey as I have mentioned on another article is only as good as the processing.
Manuka Honey for one is still processed and sold in plastic.
This Honey is poured firstly into plastic vats at source, and then chemical type blue vats with black lids,for transport which are roughly made with plastic bits, like skin tags on the inside which come off, you will have seen them, for shipping, and then the honey is poured for commercial sale into guess what plastic (BPA) toxic jars!
Now I'm sure some are aware of the dangers of ingesting plastic and (BPA) poison the gender bender! Honey has as one of its great constituents "hydrogen peroxide" as a natural protective disinfectant, but this then leaches into the plastic making the plastic leech into the honey even more so, and when you eat it, you can guess what happens to your body.
No food no matter how good in its raw form, is only as good as the way its collected stored and processed before getting to you.
So be aware and never buy eat or cook anything that is a liquid or raw from or in a plastic. Besides the dangerous health effects men will become women, and women, men! And then you become ill and die.
Oh and cooking with honey destroys the natural enzymes the only thing honey dislikes is high heat.
Hey. Not too worried about
BPA unless I am drinking water or other beverages. You have your point, but water is the biggest candidate for leaching especially in the sun. Take what precautions that you can. I have cured MRSA from wrestling mats with the manuka externally. Was.t too worried about the BPA then.
One question not addressed, is instead of cinnamon powder would it be more or less effetive just to boil and simmer cinnamon sticks for twenty minutes then add the local, raw honey, which I do purchase in glass?
You should be worried about the "BPA"! Because you are ingesting it already from other sources everyday and its accumulative. The "BPA" in any substance does not totally invalidate something but it surely lowers its effectiveness and in the long term if you keep ingesting it from such things as Teflon pans, plastics plastic containers plastic wrap and even canned food stuffs the liners are sprayed with BPA, it will build up and make you sick and kill you sooner than you would wont to bed ridden or die. Yes plastic bottled water is one bad source and sunlight makes it worse, but its the accumulative build up that does the damage from multiple sources. Track all the things you buy or use and eat that have BPA leeching out and it will shock you!
"BAD BREATH: People of South America, gargle with one teaspoon of honey and cinnamon powder mixed in hot water first thing in the morning so their breath stays fresh throughout the day.'
Whaaat?! Were you get this old peasant folk-like story? Cinammon is not native to S Amer. If anyone likes in the countryside, in any of those countries, they'd use herbs. Or But you can believe Latinos inn cities or even small towns, use toothpowder or paste.
