Brandon Wood led off with a walk but, when Chris Snyder singled, Wood made the first out of the inning at third base. Ronny Cedeno doubled Snyder to third, but Paul Maholm, the pitcher who failed to execute a bunt in his first at-bat, was asked to do a safety squeeze.
Yes, with Snyder -- owner of zero career steals -- charging home from third.
Maholm failed to get a piece of the ball, Snyder was an easy out, and the Pirates somehow got nothing out of an inning that opened with a walk, a single and a double.
Small wonder that the Pirates have lost six in a row since poking their heads a game above .500 last week.
"We didn't have a good night," Hurdle said. "You know it's a gamble. We had players in scoring position, and we rolled the dice there. We've lost a few in a row, and I don't want to step off accelerator, go station to station and sit on our hands. We don't have a perfect team. I'd rather try to slow down a horse that's running hard than kick a mule that's not running at all."
The Pirates went 2-for-12 with runners in scoring position.
Wood's gaffe looked the worst of the two in that inning.
"Yeah, we all know you don't want to make the first out of the inning at third base," Hurdle said. "If that throw's even two feet off, he's in there. It's right at the base, and he's out."
--LHP Paul Maholm took another tough "L" in the 4-2 loss Monday in Washington, and it didn't take long from his exit to ensure that: The Pirates were up 2-1 when he left but down after the first pitch by RHP Jose Ascanio -- who returned last week after nearly two years lost to shoulder surgery -- resulted in a two-run home run.
--RF Matt Diaz, on a slight 6-for-17 uptick, was inserted at cleanup for the game Monday in Washington, partly because manager Clint Hurdle wanted to load up against Nationals LHP John Lannan. The offense has struggled miserably all season, so any move barely raises an eyebrow anymore.
--LF Jose Tabata is showing signs of climbing out of a long slump. His 2-for-5 output Monday marked the fourth game in a row in which he has twice reached base safely. Most encouraging is that he is hitting the ball to the opposite field again, following his natural stroke.
--2B Neil Walker went 0-for-4, but his 22 RBI rank third in the majors among players at his position, behind the Yankees' Robinson Cano and the Reds' Brandon Phillips, who have 25 each.
--The Pirates, owners of the No. 1 overall pick in the June 6 draft, are most interested in UCLA RHP Gerrit Cole and Rice 3B Anthony Rendon, but others are on the radar. "Somebody is going to make an impact out of this draft," GM Neal Huntington said. "We're just doing everything we can to make sure we get him."
BY THE NUMBERS: 2.14 -- Average runs of support for starter Paul Maholm, who fell to 1-6 Monday despite a 3.67 ERA.
QUOTE TO NOTE: "Things aren't going our way. That's all. We're pitching well, getting runners on ... just need to go out there and keep doing the same thing." -- CF Andrew McCutchen, on the Pirates' season-high six-game losing streak.
--RHP Evan Meek (right shoulder tendinitis) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to April 27. He began a rehabilitation stint with Class AAA Indianapolis in mid-May and probably will need no more than two appearances before being activated by the Pirates. He is expected back in Pittsburgh by the end of the third week in May.
--RHP Mike Crotta (right elbow inflammation) went on the 15-day disabled list May 11.
--RHP Ross Ohlendorf (strained right shoulder) went on the 15-day disabled list April 9. He threw off flat ground for the first time April 17. Ohlendorf threw from 120 feet April 26, and he threw two bullpen sessions in late April. He pitched his first live batting practice May 3 and threw another May 6. He had a setback though and isn't expected to rejoin the rotation until June at the earliest. He did resume throwing over the second weekend of May.
--RHP Kevin Hart (right shoulder surgery in May 2010) went on the 60-day disabled list March 18. He was throwing in Bradenton, Fla., in mid-April, but the timetable for his return was uncertain.

A Chadwell Heath supermarket is offering surplus fresh food to charities to stop it going to waste.
Sainsbury's, in High Road, will be donating tinned food, fruit, vegetables, fresh produce, bread and even flowers to people in need.
Store manager Gareth Powell said: "Very often at the end of each day there is perfectly good food left over that has reached its display-by date, but is still within the use-by date.
"Where this happens we would rather give this food to charities for free than see it go to waste."

News flash, lard boy, the country has changed and the NFL has changed. Nobody gives a shiet about Doug plank anymore. Nobody gives a shiet about your ridiculous blitzes and inane Splenda depravities on the sideline.
This team makes me sick, and even moreso when I see an overmatched defensive coordinator and overpaid bean counter trying to run an NFL team.

While everyone wakes up from their candy-induced comas from last night's Halloween festivities, the Steelers are hard at work on the South Side putting their finishing touches on the game plan against New England. Can they get back to winning football by stealing one from the Patriots? That would be glorious. Here's what's being said about your Pittsburgh Steelers around the block.
Coordinator's Corner
Steelers Offensive and Defensive Coordinators speak with reporters following Thursday's practice. Each coordinator has a tough task ahead of them this week in New England. Dick LeBeau has to figure out how the defense can stop Tom Brady as well as the Patriots' rushing attack while Todd Haley needs to get the offense to turn around their red-zone inefficiency and try to strike early in the game. Haley was asked why he thinks the offense has been so ineffective in the red-zone. You can find both coordinators' comments in full here.
"We're just not making plays. We're finding ways to shoot ourselves in the foot. Penalties have shown up there. Inefficient runs last week, we had a minus-five run because we missed a block. It's a little bit of everything. There's no one issue. It's just we've got to be better, and when the opportunities present themselves we've got to make the plays. In the last two games, we had a couple catches that potentially are points. And we've just got to do a better job across the board. " – Todd Haley
LeBeau was asked about whether it was important for the Steelers defense to stop the run or to stop Tom Brady on Sunday afternoon.
"Well, I think you have to stop their offense. That never involves stopping any one thing. We always like to stop the run and make people throw, but I don't know if that is exactly the thing you want to do with Tom Brady. [Smiles] They are pretty well balanced. In the last three games, they've been getting up there in the low 30s in points per game. We have to keep them under that for sure. We've played him before. He's played us. We are looking forward to the challenge. I wouldn't say you wave either one against these guys. They are pretty balanced." – Dick LeBeau
Brown down after drops in Oakland
Antonio Brown is having what looks to be a record-breaking season for the Steelers. According to Steelers Insider Ed Bouchette of the PPG, Brown is on pace to break the team's reception record that was previously set by Hines Ward. But, those stats aren't erasing the two costly drops Brown had in last Sunday's loss in Oakland. Brown dropped what could have been a first down pass on a third-and-long as well as another possible first down that ended up in the hands of Raiders CB Tracy Porter, both in the fourth quarter. Brown reportedly apologized to Ben Roethlisberger on the plan ride home.
Kovacevic wants Jarvis Jones on the field
The Trib's Dejan Kovacevic thinks that the decision to bench rookie LB Jarvis Jones this week in favor of Jason Worilds is a bad one. His reasoning is that the Steelers should give Jones the opportunity to get the on-the-job training of being on the field rather than on the sidelines since the Steelers' season is, at 2-5, pretty much a goner. The film reveals that Jones had a rough outing in Oakland, and hasn't recorded a sack yet this season but Kovacevic thinks that keeping him on the sidelines is a mistake. Maybe I'm not quite on the "the season's over" boat that everyone else seems to be on but I don't think this benching is that detrimental to Jones or the team. He's the first LB for the Steelers to start in the 3-4 in 31 years so it's not unheard of for him to learn behind someone. I realize that Worilds isn't exactly the ideal player for Jarvis to learn behind considering he's in his 4th year with the Steelers and hasn't shown any signs that he's worth keeping after he becomes a FA this offseason but there's still a reason to keep trying to win games. If Worilds is outplaying Jones at least a tiny bit, why not put the players on the field that give you the best chance to win? Doesn't mean Jones is never going to see the field again either. There's no reason to think he won't get a good amount of snaps on Sunday in New England anyway.

SEXUAL ASSAULT - Near the Intersection of 15th Avenue SE and 8th Street SE - Marcy Holmes Neighborhood
POSTED: November 25, 2013
On Sunday, November 24 at approximately 2:15 a.m. a University of Minnesota student was the victim of a criminal sexual assault. The crime was initiated off campus, near the intersection of 15th Avenue SE and 8th Street SE and took place in an area to the west of I-35W.
The victim was walking alone when she was approached by a suspect in a black sport utility vehicle (SUV) who slowed to talk to her. The suspect identified himself as a police officer and cautioned the victim about walking alone. The suspect offered the victim a ride, and when she agreed he locked the doors of the vehicle, drove to a remote location and sexually assaulted her.
The suspect is described as black male between the ages of 23 and 27 years old with a medium build. The suspect had short hair or a shaved head, and a neatly trimmed chin-strap style beard. The suspect was wearing a dark colored jacket with a badge on it, dark pants, and a security or police style duty belt. The vehicle is a dark SUV with dark interior, and a computer screen in the center console.
Minneapolis Police are investigating this crime. Anyone with information is asked to call the Minneapolis Police Tip Line at 612-692-8477 and reference case number MP-13-391636.
The University of Minnesota Police Department asks that you remember the following:

US one sheet for THE LONG GOODBYE (Robert Altman, USA, 1973)
Designer: Richard Amsel (1947-1985)
Poster source: Heritage Auctions
Read all about how this poster was shelved after a lackluster opening and the film's campaign completely redesigned for the re-opening, on Movie Poster of the Week (from September 2011).
Same here, Elliott Gould as Phillip Marlowe. Same here.
So awesome. Saw this at the Hollywood Theater a few years back, drunk off my ass with an ex. Great flick.
My favorite Altman film. Great poster, but so is the Jack Davis one that replaced it.
most anyone who has talked about movies with me knows that this is my favorite movie of all time without a doubt.

Drop and give me 151! Though it may seem odd, the last people at the bar might be the first to hit the barbells. Studies suggest there might actually be a positive correlation between alcohol consumption and time spent exercising [1] [2]. But though some surveys indicate drinkers spend as much as 10 percent longer engaged in activity than those who abstain, the correlation likely results from factors beyond what's in the bottle [1].
Sweat It Out — Why It Matters
Despite extensive evidence that alcohol consumption does not typically enhance physical performance or post-workout results— and could even act as a hindrance— many exercisers are frequent drinkers [3]. While there's no single explanation for the correlation, multiple factors might help explain the connection. For one, alcohol consumers might be motivated to exercise more regularly in order to offset excess calorie intake (and stave off the dreaded beer belly) [2].
Another potential explanation is the notion of preference for "sensation-seeking" activities— that is, ones that produce noticeable physical sensations— like drinking and exercise [1]. To a "sensation-seeker," both the "runner's high" endorphin response and the "buzz" ethanol response might be desirable and potentially similar sensations.
99 Bottles of Sheer Motivation? — The Answer/Debate
Pass it around. While there is a positive correlation between drinking levels and time spent exercising, that doesn't mean one causes the other. Abstainers who order a round of shots in hopes of improving workouts might be left feeling bitter— lime or no lime. And while it seems that the best option would be to exercise regularly and drink only lightly, this might not be optimal for someone who derives happiness from social activities such as drinking (and could end up exercising more regularly when they're happy). The same goes for those who like their daily glass of red wine.
So, drinkers might work out a little more, but who's the "best off?" There's no single answer. Alcohol before, during, or after exercise can be harmful and might diminish accomplishments in weight management and cardiovascular endurance [4] [5]. Of course, abstaining means avoiding all of the risks (and possible benefits) associated with alcohol intake, and post-workout recovery can be significantly reduced by excessive drinking. (Though one or two brewskies should be A-OK).

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
I see these give aways every so often and I thought, why not do the same!
The fact of the matter is I don't play Gaia Online. I have ten accounts and only one has been logged in the past year just to check what's going. I don't need any of my stuff, so I'm going to give it away to someone if…

Unique 100-day exhibition to depict world history
From the Chinese Jade Hair Ornament to the Bird-shaped Pestle from Papua New Guinea, 100 objects depicting world history will be displayed in a unique 100-day exhibition, starting next month, to be held in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Being organised by Tourist and Cultural Authority (TCA) Abu Dhabi, the event will be held at Manarat Al Saadiyat in Abu Dhabi's Saadiyat Cultural District and will run from April 23 to Aug 2.
It is the third in a series of major exhibitions leading to the opening of the Zayed National Museum in 2016.
Inspired by a popular BBC Radio 4 series, 'A History of the World in 100 Objects', the exhibition will capture both the history of the world and the significant role the Middle East has played in it through a vivid display of compelling objects.
"It is with great anticipation that we welcome some of the world's most precious objects to Abu Dhabi for the 'A History of the World in 100 Objects' exhibition, which come together to illustrate a history of humanity," Sheikh Sultan bin Tahnoon Al Nahyan, chairman of TCA Abu Dhabi, said Wednesday while announcing the holding of the exhibition.
Among the objects that will be on display is the Chinese Jade Hair Ornament, that was used to hold a hair bun, or topknot, in place.
Also on display will be objects that were made for whole communities to use, like the Bird-shaped Pestle from Papua New Guinea.
The Hebrew Astrolabe from Spain that will be showcased was designed to advance human understanding of the world.
The Mexican Huastec Sculpture represents the surviving relic of a lost civilisations.
Allowing visitors to travel back in time and across the globe, people can explore how humans have shaped the world, and been shaped by it.
"Objects have a tremendous power and ability to tell stories, in many instances they are the only evidence we have for certain cultures so these kinds of temporary exhibitions, and indeed the permanent displays in Zayed National Museum, are hugely important to aid our understanding of the world," Neil MacGregor, director of the British Museum, said.
Running alongside the exhibition will be a full public programme of workshops, tours and seminars.

My Car Got Hit, What Happened Next Completely Caught Me Off Guard
We live in a cynical world. Oftentimes, I've been that cynical person who doesn't always believe in the good of humanity. Especially in business, I'm so wired to question people and not give them my trust immediately. Well, recently, my pessimistic view about people was put to the test…
Let me tell you about my recent trip to Washington DC. I was going to fly to DC from Atlanta, but decided to take my friend Randy with me and drive. It was going to be great hang time and a chance to catch up a little since we've been so busy with life and work. I volunteered my Toyota Hybrid which offered 41 miles to the gallon. Sure enough, we made the trip to DC and had a series of successful business meetings. In between the meetings, I stopped into a quaint little strip of Georgetown to grab an appetizer at Café Bonaparte. I was feeling adventurous and ordered a plate of escargot. Mmmm…….Mmmmm… It was delicious.
Small businesses are extremely under-represented in the government market. We've created a Fast Track Coaching Program to help your business grow in the Federal, state, and local government contracting market.
Quick Stats:
1) 99.7% of all companies in America are small businesses (SBA size standards), yet less than 22% of Federal contracting dollars are awarded to small businesses.
2) 41% of all US companies are owned by women, yet less than 4.3% of Federal contracting dollars are awarded to women owned small businesses.
3) Minorities make up 43.9% of the US population, yet only 7.8% of Federal contracting dollars are awarded to minority firms.

Companies that violate labor laws will now have a tougher time doing business with the government.
President Obama's recent executive order prevents federal contractors who have violated labor laws from competing for certain types of work and gives agencies greater guidance on how to take those violations into account while awarding contracts. It also expands labor protections for contractor employees.

Contractors, How are You Exposed to the Budget?
The federal government provides a large amount of forward-looking budget data, such as the Future Years Defense Program, that contractors can use to identify government priorities and forecast areas of opportunity. However, linking individual contracts to the different budget accounts used by the Department of Defense — including Operation and Maintenance (O&M), Procurement, Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) and Construction (which includes Military Construction and Family Housing), among others — has proved more difficult. This linkage is valuable because it can help reveal what kinds of work and what companies will be affected by budget developments.

Large Business's Unmet Subcontracting Goals Result In "Marginal" Score
A large business was appropriately awarded a "Marginal" score for small business participation based on the large business's history of failing to meet its small business subcontracting goals.
In a recent bid protest decision, the GAO held that the procuring agency properly assigned the large business a low score based on the large business's history of unmet subcontracting goals, even though the large business apparently pledged to subcontract a significant amount of work to small businesses under the solicitation in question.

Government: the LARGEST consumer in the world!
The total spending for Federal, state and local government is $6 trillion. The Federal government is the largest consumer in the world, with a $4 trillion budget and contract spending of over $500 billion awarded to the private sector. Despite the huge amount of money being spent, less than 1% of companies are actively winning government contracts. Therefore, there is a tremendous need to support companies and help them open doors for greater opportunities in the public sector.
|Available for everyone for competition
|Everyone could compete for a contract, but only one bid or offer was ever received
|Competition within a limited pool
|Actions necessary to continue existing competitive contracts for continuity (until the next one could be competed)
|Available only for groups such as disabled persons, prisoners, and regulated utilities
|Not competed for an allowable reason
|Not identified, soon to be addressed
The need for greater support
Government agencies seek greater participation from qualified vendors, but are realizing that many businesses don't fully understand the procurement process. Businesses seek to win contracts with government agencies, but face challenging hurdles to navigate the rules, regulations, strategic alliances, purchasing methodologies, and other obstacles the government market presents. In 2007, the Census reported that there were over 31 million businesses in the US; yet, it is estimated that less than 200,000 companies win federal contracts annually.
Government Contractors Association, Inc (GCA)
GCA is a national professional trade association for companies interested in pursuing government contracts, existing companies already in the public market, universities, non-profit organizations, government agencies and staff from the federal, state and local level.
Government Contractors Association (GCA) was formed because there was a void in this space. Even though government contracting has been around over 200 years, less than 1% of companies are winning government contracts. Our mission is to help change that.
Government Contractors Association was formed to advocate, facilitate and educate its members. GCA will support our members through educational curriculum, certification, prep and strategy training. We want to foster teaming, joint venture, alliance and mentor protege relationships. We want to be the voice of government contractors.

Bob Koga began his martial arts career at an early age beginning with Judo at 12 and moving on to wrestling in high school. After graduation Bob joined the Air Force, and while stationed in Japan, he resumed his Judo training as well as studying Jiu Jitsu, Jo-do and Akido. After finishing his stint in the Air Force, Bob moved to Los Angeles where he joined the LAPD and served with great distinction for 25 years. During his tenure with the LAPD, Bob became widely recognized as an outspoken proponent of the straight baton as opposed to the PR24 or side handle baton (currently popular in departments across the land). Upon retirement, Bob launched a second career as a police trainer who specialized in teaching officers how to control and subdue violent offenders using empty hands as well as with the famous Koga Straight Baton. In the course of his career Bob witnessed and participated in many street fights and violent altercations. These experiences taught him that there was a real need for a small, light, easily concealed self-defense tool that could bridge the gap between using empty hands and the more dangerous baton. These insights led him to create the Koga. Made of virtually unbreakable plastic, the Koga can increase the ability of the average person to defend himself several times over. With proper training, it can function as a fantastic aid in leverage when obtaining joint locks or submission holds. But where it really shines is as an intermediate impact tool. You see, police and civilians alike face a perplexing dilemma when contemplating employing fist or baton blows. Blows struck with the fist may be too weak, or worse, result in a broken hand, while blows struck with a baton may be too powerful resulting in grave injury or even death. The SD1 however, solves this problem, neatly bridging the gap by concentrating and magnifying the effect of hand blows while minimizing the likelihood of permanent injury or death. If you're looking to expand your continuum of force options in a self-defense situation, we heartily suggest you buy a Koga.

Dennis Wilkening's Shed. Story County, Iowa. June 3, 2014.
from the Polling Place Project
The lab just returned my film from election-day trip to document unique polling places in the Los Angeles area. I've been busy making some draft scans of the images for editing. Keep an eye out in the near future for the images to appear on the project's website.
LA was a goldmine, worth another trip I think. Here's a sneak peek for everyone!
It was a great couple of weeks of publicity for my little Polling Project. Not only was it recently featured in Fortune and Spirit magazines (see above), but also highlighted on CNN and at the NPR Picture Show blog.
I should be getting the film back soon from the latest edition of the project in LA, so stay tuned!
Iconic polling places. #vote #election2012
Close to 4000 voting booths sit in a warehouse in Philadelphia and await delivery to voting locations around the city on election day tomorrow, Tuesday, Nov. 6th.
Philadelphia, Sept. 2012.
And, FYI, I'll be in in Los Angeles through Wed. morning documenting that city's polling place culture. Stay tuned for more images soon.
Internet Cafe. Ward 14, Precinct 25. Chicago, 2012.
Lawn Lanes. Ward 14, Precinct 46. Chicago, 2012.
(I just returned from expanding my Polling Place project into Chicago…and eventually the wider nation. I'll be rolling out draft scans of the images on Tumblr all week and eventually updating the project's site. So stay tuned.)

Photos and Description of this holiday apartment in Port de Soller - Santa Catalina Apartment
Immaculate one bedroom apartment in the heart of Port Sóller
Beautifully reformed one bedroom apartment with additional sofa bed in the quaint and bustling old town of Port Sóller. For those with no wish to drive, the location of this apartment is ideal. On the first floor with views overlooking the yachts, and only steps away from Port Sóller's varied selection of restaurants, cafes, supermarkets, boutiques, and the only sand beach on the north west coast, a car is not a requirement.
The stylishly decorated apartment comprises of one double bedroom situated to the rear of the building, a large living room with fold out bed and French window overlooking the marina, fully equipped kitchen, dining room to seat 6, bathroom with shower and adjoining utility area with washing machine and dryer.
Air conditioning is provided throughout. Many thoughtful touches are also included such as quality towels and linen, stylish soft furnishings, a hair dryer and a small welcome pack.
From the doorstep, you have the option to take the ferry to the not to be missed locations of Sa Calobra and Torrent de Pareis. On the beach windsurfers are available as are pedloes and kayaks. Surrounding the horse shoe bay is a wealth of easy and challenging hiking trails as well as rock climbing and from the Port quality mountain bikes and racing bicycles can be hired.
With so much to do and such an array of restaurants there is no reason to leave Port Sóller, however, a tram ride into Sóller town is a 'must'. And if you wish to go further, from Sóller you can opt to take the antique train into the centre of Palma or taxis can be taken to explore the neighbouring coastal towns of Deia and Valldemossa or the pretty mountain village of Fornalutx.
- Suitability:
- Long-term Renters Welcome
- children welcome
- non smoking only
- pets not allowed
- wheelchair inaccessible
About Magdalena
I am Mallorquin and live locally in Soller. I have 5 properties in total that I furbish and let for holiday purposes. It is my intention that our guests feel at home, have everything they would expect when coming on holiday and like to add little touches to make our guests feel more welcome.
Why Magdalena chose Port de Soller
We have had this property for a number of years and until now it was let on a long term basis. We felt it would be a good location for holiday makers with such a beautiful view and great location.
What makes this apartment unique
The apartment is in the heart of the fishing port, in Santa Catalina, the old town of Port Soller. With beautiful views over the marina and out towards the mountains, coupled with the proximity to restaurants, beach and shops, makes the apartment very appealing.

Experts: Resolve to be smart about resolutions
By Josette Keelor
Recycling is a New Year's resolution that helps the earth and makes people feel great about themselves, but the same can't be said for recycling last year's resolution.
To those who anticipate their resolve weakening after a month or two, area professionals offer tips for making sure that doesn't happen.
Start small
"Consistency is key," she said. "People tend to want to bite off more than they can chew. They want a quick fix, and they want it last week."
Those with financial or organizational goals for 2014 might benefit from a checklist, like one at Commonwealth Financial Network's website, commonwealth.com/RepSiteContent/financial-checklist.htm.
The checklist recommends breaking up tasks into monthly installments for an achievable resolution, like using January to establish a will or trust, create a budget and consider making an extra payment toward a mortgage principal to help shorten the length of the loan.
Each month, complete other goals like reviewing life, home and auto insurance; checking your credit report; shredding old documents and reviewing online accounts.
Get S.M.A.R.T
"If you don't have your mind right, you're not going to stick with your eating, you're not going to stick with your fitness," Bowling said. "Only set one to three goals, realistic goals. ... And the 'realistic' can also be relevant," she added. "It helps people really put those things into perspective."
Try being accountable to someone, Bowling said, because people are more likely to fail if there's no one else to notice whether or not they achieve their goals.
Also, instead of focusing on what not to eat, Bowling said to focus on what you should be eating or other positive aspects of your resolution.
Instead of forcing yourself to exercise, she recommended saying, "I get to go workout and I'm thankful that my body can even do these things."
"They mean the same thing, but you're focusing on the positive side instead of the negative," she said.
Make it count
"Most people are eating upwards of 3,000 to 5,000 calories a day," she said. Caloric intake should be more like 2,000 a day, she said.
Bowling suggested choosing a meal plan heavy on fruits, vegetables, lean meats, nuts and seeds. A healthy eating plan doesn't have to exclude fast food, she said, as long as people make good choices.
"Have a salad," she said. "It's so obvious, but just do it."
Websites, apps and other literature can help make goals a priority each day, and she suggested sites like CalorieKing.com, GoMeals.com, FitDay.com and the book "Wheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight, and Find Your Path Back to Health," by William Davis, M.D.
"We all really know how to eat, we just don't want to eat like that," she said. "We know that pop isn't healthy for us, water is. So drink the water."
See the big picture
Wanting to change is one thing, but she said real change happens when people examine their lives.
She teaches how to live without regret, having noticed five main regrets people have about their lives: not having the courage to be true to themselves, working too hard, lacking courage to express their feelings, not staying in touch with friends and not letting themselves be happier.
"How do you want to be remembered?" she asked. "How generous are you in your lives? I try to help them look beyond just doing."
"There are a lot of things that you can do in order to deal with your regrets," she said. "We really are in control of most of our lives."

Warne 1" Quick Detach AR15 Flat Top Riflescope Rings A204LM are the most durable and versatile quick detach rifle scope rings. Each rifle scope ring is precision CNC machined from sintered steel technology by Warne. The Warne Tactical Scope Rings sport the unique Warne indexable lever system which allows the user to remove the scope optics from the rifle, then reattach it without the loss of zero, as well as allowing the location of the lever to be indexed once the Warne Quick Detach AR-15 Rings are affixed to the rifle's base. After the levers are tightened, simply pull out on the lever, turn it to the desired location, then let it snap into place.
Unique to the industry, these Warne riflescope rings have a square stainless steel recoil control key. This ensures a positive recoil engagement surface across the full width and depth of the recoil slot in the base. The recoil control key guarantees the position of the rings will not shift or move under fierce recoil and also protects against peening or swaging when mounted on aluminum bases. A secure and dependable quick-attaching set of rifle scope rings, the Warne One Inch Flat Top Scope Rings for AR-15 are a great way to mount a scope on your AR-15 rifle or carbine.

Profile: Andrew Mitchell
Chief Whip Andrew Mitchell has resigned over a row with police at the gates of Downing Street.
It follows weeks of speculation about his future with Labour, the Police Federation and the Daily Telegraph all calling for him to go.
Mr Mitchell was appointed chief whip in David Cameron's first major reshuffle in September, leaving his post at international development.
Within a couple of weeks, after what he called a "long and extremely frustrating day", he swore at a police officer who stopped him cycling out of the main Downing Street gates.
He apologised for the incident, saying he was sorry he had not shown the police enough respect, but denied reports he had called the officers "plebs".
Despite getting backing from the prime minister, his apology failed to end the row about the incident, with police officers protesting outside Mr Mitchell's constituency office wearing T-shirt with the words "PC Pleb and Proud" printed on them.
In an attempt to defuse the situation, Mr Mitchell stayed away from the Conservative Party conference, being held in Birmingham close to his Sutton Coldfield constituency.
However, speculation about his future continued and, following a meeting with representatives from the West Midlands Police Federation, Mr Mitchell decided it was time to resign.
It brings to an end his ministerial career, which began as a junior whip in the early nineties.Maastricht rebellion
Mr Mitchell, 56, was first elected in 1987, having grown up in a political household - his MP father Sir David Mitchell served as a minister under Margaret Thatcher.
He was educated at Rugby public school. It is here the self confessed "stern disciplinarian" is said to have earned the nickname "Thrasher".
He read history at Jesus College, Cambridge where his extra curricular activities included chairing the student Conservatives and becoming President of the Cambridge Union.
Before going to university, Mr Mitchell served in the Royal Tank Regiment and as a UN peacekeeper in Cyprus.
But upon graduating he moved into the world of banking, taking up a role with investment bank Lazard Brothers.
During this time he got married to Sharon, a doctor. They have two daughters.
Andrew Mitchell biography
- He is 56 years old and married to a doctor. They have two daughters.
- His father was a Conservative politician and minister under Margaret Thatcher
- He is a former soldier who served as a UN peacekeeper in Cyprus in the 1970s
- He entered Parliament in 1987 and was a whip during the Major government
- He lost his seat in 1997 but returned to Parliament four years later
- While an opposition spokesman on international development, he was also a director of a merchant bank
- He was appointed international development secretary in 2010 and became Tory chief whip earlier this month
He was determined to get into politics and, having failed to get elected in 1983 in Sunderland South, he won the seat of Gedling in Nottinghamshire in 1987.
Here he started his career in the whip's office, serving as a government whip during the notorious rebellion over the Maastricht Treaty - where a number of Conservative MPs voted against Prime Minister John Major.
He was made a vice-chair of the Conservative Party and later promoted to be social security minister, and he was tipped as a future chief whip in the mid-1990s.
But his career suffered a set back when he lost his seat in the Labour landslide of 1997.
This brought to an end a decade of serving in the House of Commons alongside his father - who retired the same year.
He returned to Lazard Brothers as a director and began his search for a new, and hopefully safer, seat.
After five other attempts, he beat a large field to succeed Sir Norman Fowler in Sutton Coldfield, where he has built up a large majority since 2001.
Back inside the Commons, he got involved with the party's leadership machinations as it tried to find someone to take on Tony Blair.
As early as October 2002 he was named by the Daily Telegraph as one of four ringleaders in a plot to oust then leader Iain Duncan Smith.Police row
He found favour with Mr Duncan Smith's replacement, Michael Howard, who promoted him into the shadow cabinet as shadow international development secretary after the 2005 general election.
He ran David Davis's failed leadership campaign in 2005, but kept his shadow cabinet job under David Cameron's regime. He is now seen as a Cameron loyalist.
Mr Mitchell stayed in the shadow international development role all the way through to the 2010 general election, after which he took the post on in government.
He oversaw moves to make aid more transparent and repeatedly pledged to enshrine in law an obligation for the UK to spend 0.7% of its national income on overseas aid - something which has angered some of his Conservative colleagues.
When David Cameron carried out his first major reshuffle in early September, he made Mr Mitchell his new chief whip. It was to be a short-lived appointment, lasting just over a month.
His friend of 25 years, MP Michael Brown - who worked with Mr Mitchell in the whips office in the early 90s - said the incident with Downing Street police was "totally and utterly out of character".
He said: "A 30 second moment of madness by the chief whip, who I know to be a very decent and honourable man.
"I come from the wrong side of the tracks. I'm a secondary modern school boy, an eleven plus failure and I can tell you working with Andrew Mitchell was an absolute delight and a privilege."

"Slow" marine life is particularly mysterious. As colorful, bizarre-looking, and environmentally important as we know corals and sponges are, their simple day-to-day life is hidden.
We know some bits about their biochemistry, corals' interaction with zooxanthella algae, their life cycles, and systematics. Unfortunately, it's hard to tell what we don't know about the rest, and particularly when it comes to interaction with other organisms happening over long periods of time.
Time lapse cinematography reveals a whole different world full of hypnotic motion and my idea was to make coral reef life more spectacular and thus closer to our awareness.

Sailing with SEA Programs!
This month Asta and Andrew were stoked to start work at Sailing Educational Adventure Programs (a.k.a Sea Programs!).
As Mate aboard the SEA Programs' 52' wooden ketch A Fine Madness this Spring, we will be taking turns at being responsible for shipboard programming for5-day sailing trips with groups of up to 15 grade 9 and 10 students. In fact, SEA programs runs two vessels; we will also get the chance to be crew aboard their other ship, The Duen, a 22m traditional wooden gaff rigged ketch (shown on the left). Working aboard with fellow biologists, we hope to expand our ocean literacy curriculum and learn new ways in which to integrate it into the high school math and science curriculum.

Climate Change - An educators resource
I've recently come across an outstanding resource for teachers! Author Jaime Bastedo has written a book called "On thin ice: Polar Bears in a Climate of Change". The book is a novel for teens which weaves mystery and Inuit culture with the spirituality of a fearsome top predator against the backdrop of a changing Arctic landscape. The murder mystery delves into the spiritual realm and also highlights the challenges and realities of global climate change.
The most interesting (and useful) aspects of Jaime's work are the teacher resources that accompany the book; there are lesson plans including pre-reading and post-reading activities and an excellent resource list. The resource list includes over 20 different websites for teachers that are would be an great starting point for an entire unit on climate change, regardless of the subject that you teach!
I would highly recommend checking out the website: www.onthinice.ca and having a look at the lessons and comprehensive resource list!

Simple eye test could diagnose Alzheimer's
Story supplied by LU Press Office
A simple eye tracking test could hold the key to earlier Alzheimer's diagnosis, according to new research published in the Journal of the American Aging Association.
Work, led by Lancaster University in partnership with Royal Preston Hospital, Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, has shown that people with Alzheimer's disease have difficulty with one particular type of eye tracking test.
As part of the study, 18 patients with Alzheimer's disease, 25 patients with Parkinson's disease, 17 healthy young people and 18 healthy older people were asked to follow the movements of light on a computer monitor, but in some instances they were asked to look the opposite way, away from the light.
Detailed eye-tracking measurements, taken from the group showed stark contrasts in results.
Patients with Alzheimer's made errors on the task where they were asked to look away from the light and were unable correct those errors, despite the fact that they were able to respond perfectly normally when they were asked to look towards the light.
These uncorrected errors were 10 times more frequent in the Alzheimer's patients compared to the control groups.
Researchers also measured memory function among those Alzheimer's patients who found the test difficult and were able to show a clear correlation with lower memory function.
Dr Trevor Crawford of the department of Psychology and the Centre for Aging Research, Lancaster University, said these new results were potentially very exciting as they demonstrated, for the first time, a connection with the memory impairment that is so often the first noticeable symptom in Alzheimer's disease.
He said: "The diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease is currently heavily dependent on the results of a series of lengthy neuropsychological tests. However, patients with a dementia often find that these tests are difficult to complete due to a lack of clear understanding and lapse in their attention or motivation.
"Over the last ten years researchers in laboratories around the world have been working on an alternative approach based on the brain's control of the movements of the eye as a tool for investigating cognitive abilities such as attention, cognitive inhibition and memory.
"This study takes this work forward because we found strong evidence that the difficulty in noticing and correcting the errors was probably caused by a problem in the memory networks of the brain that allow us to store the spatial position of objects in the environment.
"The light tracking test could play a vital role in diagnosis as it allows us to identify, and exclude number alternative explanations of the test results."
Alzheimer's disease is a devastating disorder of the mind and the most common cause of dementia, affect approximately 500,000 people in the UK. The disease process starts many years before the symptoms begin to appear so it is vital for the development of future treatments to be able to detect its earliest signs.

Did a Sports Journalist Really Write This?
It should be called "Eagles Offseason: Knee-Jerk Edition." Reuben Frank (who I referenced and commended in the playoff preview column) must have stolen this "article" from a message board. Just kidding… I think. But seriously, I wouldn't be surprised if he did. This is precisely the kind of stuff you would see some teenage armchair general manager post on an NFL message board forum. Is this supposed to be a realistic offseason plan or his personal fantasy one? It doesn't fit with anything the Eagles have ever done from a personnel standpoint. That's not to say Asomugha's play is starting to decline — in fact, he'll probably remain at an elite level for another few years. However, with the exception of the T.O. experiment, when has this organization ever signed a 30-year old free agent? The age of 30 is when management starts getting rid of players, not acquiring them. If the Eagles want to make a fundamental change to their basic philosophies, let it begin with a more balanced attack on offense that gets the ball to LeSean McCoy at least 20-25 times every game.
I'll give my opinion about what should happen this offseason in a future post… I just don't feel like exerting the energy to write it right now.
