No matter how many articles we write or edit about how which nutrient-rich superfoods are the best eats to fuel our bodies, we're still human. As much as we try to walk the Healthy Living walk, we're not all broccoli all the time.
In fact, there are a couple of principles of healthful eating that we downright ignore, whether it's because we don't like the texture of bananas or the taste of broccoli. But we decided it's time to come clean.
In the slideshow below, you'll find 11 beneficial foods at least one editor here at Healthy Living can't bring herself to eat, plus some alternatives to try instead. Are there healthy foods you know you should be eating but just can't? Tell us in the comments!
One editor stays away from the pick-me-up that helps so many of the rest of us make it through the mornings. But in passing up that cup of Joe, she's also missing out on a host of health benefits, ranging from a lower depression risk to protection against cognitive decline and diabetes. However, a number of the health benefits of coffee have, in fact, been chalked up to caffeine, like that burst of alertness or boost to your workout or protection against skin cancer, which she can, of course, get in other places, like tea, says Angela Ginn, R.D., L.D.N., C.D.E., a spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. While black tea has more caffeine, green tea has the added benefit of more powerful antioxidant properties, she says. Flickr photo by Dinner Series
The same editor finds a similar bitterness to chocolate that she just can't stomach, even though she knows the sweet stuff (in moderation of course) has been linked to improved heart health, a sunnier disposition and possibly even protection from strokes, among other benefits. Most people have the opposite problem with chocolate -- they're likely to eat too much of it, and the wrong kind. Dark chocolate is the healthiest, but all chocolate can be high in calories, fat and sugar, so this editor is probably better off looking for heart-health benefits in foods like salmon and nuts. For an alternative sweet taste, though, Ginn suggests cinnamon. The spice adds flavor without packing on calories or fat, and has one of the highest antioxidant content of all foods, she says.

Broccoli promotes eye health, protects against cancer, heart disease and stroke, builds strong bones and bolsters the immune system. Luckily, the editor who just can't get behind this superfood hasn't sworn of all cruciferous veggies, and she can still get some of the same benefits from other members of the same family, like Brussels sprouts and kale. "Those dark leafy greens would be a good alternative," says Ginn. Flickr photo by mallydally
The same editor swears off virtually every legume, but beans are one of the most underrated superfoods, supplying fiber, protein and iron, among other nutrients. Chickpeas and edamame get the green light from her, however. And that's good news: The New York Times calls chickpeas the most versatile and tastiest bean and edamame, a natural source of soy, may protect against diabetes, heart disease and cancer. Ginn suggests eating chickpeas in hummus; in spread form, they're virtually unrecognizable as beans and may go down easier. Flickr photo by izik
Another editor shies away from avocado, even though the fruit is full of heart-healthy fats and increases absorption of key nutrients from other produce when paired properly. However, she can turn to olive oil, nuts and some cheeses for similar unsaturated fats. Flickr photo by Satoru Kikuchi
Healthy Living's resident vegetarian can't stand peppers, a surprisingly-rich source of vitamin C and a low-cal pick for fiber and a number of different antioxidants. For her, Ginn recommends eating more fruit, from oranges to pineapple to strawberries. When it comes to cooking, Ginn suggests using more onions or celery to replace peppers.

When given the choice, one editor says she just can't stop picking white rice over brown, even though she knows the health benefits are many. But with findings like those from a 2010 Harvard study, which showed that brown rice can protect against diabetes, while white rice can actually increase a person's risk, it's hard to justify this choice. However, there are some other whole-grain options, like quinoa. Ginn also suggests wild rice, which can be a mix of different grains and may not have the crunchy texture of brown rice.

It's the texture that doesn't sit well for one editor when it comes to bananas. But the electrolyte potassium, found in abundance in bananas, is crucial to this self-described sweatier-than-average fitness geek. "We actually get a lot of potassium from our vegetables," says Ginn, "people assume it's all from fruit." Prunes and raisins can help, as can spinach and Swiss chard, says Ginn. "A cup of cooked Swiss chard -- you'd have to eat three to four bananas to get that potassium." Flickr photo by Steve Hopson
One editor, who admits she'll eat virtually anything that's considered food, won't go near carob, an extract of the carob bean most commonly used in place of chocolate. Fans will argue it's a healthy swap, although when it comes to fat and calories, the two are actually very similar, according to TLC. Carob has more calcium, though, and is also naturally caffeine-free. We're not convinced she should jump on the carob train just yet if she doesn't want to -- especially if she's sticking to dark chocolate and already getting her daily dose of about 1,000 milligrams of calcium on the regular. Flickr photo by Mr. T in DC
Speaking of raisins, another editor can't stand the thought of the small dried fruits. They've been linked to lower blood pressure, according to a March study, and are a good source of iron. But there are other dried fruits that can help with iron intake -- bananas and veggies for that dose of potassium and a number of other foods, like kiwis, that can keep blood pressure in check, naturally.

This fiber-rich morning meal doesn't make the menu for the same editor, even though oats reduce cholesterol, and provide a healthy dose of a number of B vitamins. Luckily, there are plenty of other foods, including fish, nuts, apples and strawberries, that she is happy to nibble on that can also help keep cholesterol levels healthy. Even cold cereal is an okay a.m. alternative, says Ginn, as long as it has that whole grain stamp on the package and at least three grams of fiber per serving. Flickr photo by nate steiner

McSwiggans: unbelievable food and atmosphere
anything in galway is fabulous. this restaurant especially, was wonderful. from what i remember the atmosphere was really nice, not like a college or chain scene. it felt i guess, "classy". at times my vocabulary fails me :)
i had this thing throughout the trip, where i would start off realllllly wanting one meal, but everyone else would order it. so i wanted to be different and i would order what next appealed to me. this method really didnt work well, because about 90% of the time, my meal sucked and everyone elses looked/tasted/smelled fantastic. but even tho my mcswiggans dinner was bland, the desert made up for it. chocolate hazelenut cake. warmed and drizzled with chocolate sauce. mmmmmmmmmmm.... chocolate sauce....
GBC (Galway Baking Company): Great place if need food fast but good.
There is sort of a buffet line downstairs, so you just get in lin and pick out whatever looks good to you. All kinds of things to choose from such as homemade soups, sandwiches, light lunches, dinner. Upstairs is the restaurant where you can order from the menu after 4 PM. They also have menus in French, German, Spanish, Italian, and irish.
Open 12 noon-10 PM. Lunch starts at 12 noon.
KC Blakes: Larger than Life Chef in Little Ol' Galway
Greatest Restaurant in Ireland. Chef/Owner John will dazzle you with his exotic tales of fast cars, luxury travel and hunting trips that provide the fresh game for many of the specials. One might say that he is larger than life, all the while managing the kitchen and staff to culinary excellence. Gordon Ramsay step aside, John is here to stay. His lovely wife Vicki is often seen working the room, when John is off on yet another adventure. I was fortunate to dine one evening when the specials of the night were a beatiful venison stew, and roast pheasant, both taken by John that very day whilst rubbing elbows with the Irish hoi polloi at his very exclusive hunt club catering to the newly monied Celtic Tiger elite. The service was quite good despite the fact that most of the waitstaff were Eastern Europeans who barely spoke English, and the decor was pleasant enough despite being Euro Modern with a lilt of Ikea. The one thing that irked me more than anything was the menu laden with typo after typo. In the days of spell check, there is no reason to have pate de fois gras spelled patty da fwa gwa.
Bottom line, quite good, a tad on the high side, but well worth it for the local flavor you get from the personal tableside banter by none other than His Majesty John KC Blake Casey.
Favorite Dish: Desserts are to die for. The Vicki Souffle was fluffy as a cloud and the Tira Misu a la Michaela was the best I've ever had. The cocktail list was also out of the world. It's the only place in Ireland that can make a decent Apple Martini.

What an amazing Hotel. After the hectic drive to London Central and the train trips we had, had enough. The Hotel St Gotthard is directly across the road from the Railway Station. We checked in and found to our amazement 'the perfect welcome'. Candles, Chocolates, Champagne what more could we ask for. The Staff and the Hotel are definitely a 5 star rating. Thank You :)

Josh Radnor Penning Memoir About Childhood, Experiences With Drugs
The "How I Met Your Mother" actor depicts real life events in the book, including drinking a hallucinatory tea called ayahuasca, while visiting the Amazon with a shaman.
Josh Radnor, star of CBS' How I Met Your Mother, is writing a memoir titled One Big Blissful Thing, documenting his childhood in suburban Ohio as well as experiences taking drugs while in the Amazon valley. The book is expected to be published this year by Simon & Schuster's Atria Books, but no firm release date has been set.
PHOTOS: 10 Buzzing Films That Will Sell at Sundance 2012
There is little known about the project so far other than the following brief catalog copy which was released:
"The story of one man's unlikely spiritual awakening — this is Eat, Pray, Love for those who would rather be reading McSweeney's. Josh Radnor grew up in Ohio. He was driven to school in a big yellow bus. He watched The Cosby Show and John Hughes movies. He also went on to become a successful actor in Hollywood. How then, in 2007, did he end up drinking an indigenous plant medicine called ayahuasca with a shaman in Brazil?"
Sundance 2012: A Cautiously Optimistic Look at This Year's Market
Ayahuasca, a thick brown tea that combines ayahuasca vine, tree bark and other plants, causes hallucinations and can induce a trancelike state. Amazonian natives have drank the tea for centuries mostly for religious purposes. While some music artists, including Sting, Tori Amos and Paul Simon, have confessed to experimenting with the drug. Beat novelist William Burroughs, who also tried ayahuasca in the early 1960s, admitted to vomitting as well as hurling himself at a tree as a result.
Radnor has starred as lead character Ted Mosby on How I Met Your Mother since 2005. The actor is debuting his latest movie, Liberal Arts, at this month's Sundance Film Festival. Radnor wrote, directed and stars in the film which tells the story of a 35-year-old man who returns to his alma mater and falls in love with a 19-year-old student played by Elizabeth Olsen. His directorial debut happythankyoumoreplease captured the 2010 dramatic Audience Award at Sundance.

Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal on Wednesday said that his movement was ready for a "humanitarian" cease-fire with Israel.However, Mashaal said that Hamas would not accept any cease-fire that 'bypasses" the demands of the movement and other "resistance" groups in the Gaza Strip."There is no real breakthrough and many are still insisting on a cease-fire that would be later followed by negotiations," he said.At a press conference in Doha, Qatar, Mashaal also rejected demands for the disarmament of Hamas. He said that in order for this to happen, Israel would have to end "occupation" and disarm.Mashaal called for lifting the siege that has been imposed on the Gaza Strip since 2006 and the reopening of the border crossings."Our demands for a truce are legitimate," he said. "We have presented them to Qatar, Turkey, Egypt and the Palestinian Authority. Today we rejected an initiative that called for a cease-fire that would be followed by negotiations."Referring to the suspension of international flights to Israel, Mashaal said: "When you lay siege to our airspace, we lay siege to your airspace. The resistance is today in the Gaza Strip and tomorrow it is capable of surrounding you in the West Bank."The Hamas leader also called on the PA to end security coordination with Israel."Everyone wanted us to accept a ceasefire and then negotiate for our rights, we reject this and we reject it again today," he said at a news conference in Qatar.But he said Hamas "will not close the door" to a humanitarian truce if Israel ended its siege of Gaza.Addressing the Palestinians of the Gaza Strip, Mashaal said that he and other leaders of Hamas were prepared to die for the sake of ending the blockade.Reuters contributed to this report.

Who's the lucky lady, Russell? During a conversation with HuffPost UK on the night of Nov. 4, British comedian Russell Brand revealed that he's once again off the market -- though he kept his new love's identity a secret.
"I'm in a relationship at the moment," the 38-year-old star shared. Later, as he was leaving, he added, "I'm off to see my girlfriend."
PHOTOS: Russell and Katy, the way they were
The "Get Him to the Greek" actor was most recently linked with Hugh Grant's ex Jemima Khan. In an op-ed for The Guardian in September, he wrote that he was "presently beleagured by a nerdish, whirling dervish" and was "eschewing all others" to be with her. Two weeks later, however, he said during a stand-up show that he was "currently single."
Prior to dating Khan, of course, Brand was married to Katy Perry from 2010 to 2012. She recently opened up about their divorce in an interview with the U.K.'s Sunday Times, telling the paper she "was in bed for about two weeks" after their split.
"I was pretty f--ked, yes. It hurt a lot -- I got a good knock," the "Roar" singer admitted, likening the emotional beating she took to getting "punched in the face and kicked down the stairs a couple of times."
Both she and her ex have since moved on -- Perry is in a relationship with John Mayer -- but Brand has a few other lady troubles to work out now. Questioned by HuffPost UK about the perception that he's a misogynist, the outspoken Brit admitted he wasn't the best person to ask.
"I don't think I am sexist," he told the audience. "But now I remember my grandmother. My grandmother was the loveliest person I've ever known, but she was racist! And I don't think she knew!"
"I don't know if I have some cultural hangover. I certainly don't want to be a sexist. I certainly don't want to judge anybody on the basis of stuff that they can't help, or stuff that they can help, to be honest. I don't think it's my position to judge," he explained. "I know that I have a great love of proletariat linguistics, like 'darling' and 'bird'...so if women think I'm sexist, they're in a better position to judge than I am, so I'll work on that."

Automatic Baseline Subtraction of Vibrational Spectra Using Minima Identification and Discrimination via Adaptive, Least-Squares Thresholding
Abstract:A method of automated baseline correction has been developed and applied to Raman spectra with a low signal-to-noise ratio and surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) spectra with bipolar bands. Baseline correction is initiated by dividing the raw spectrum into equally spaced segments in which regional minima are located. Following identification, the minima are used to generate an intermediate second-derivative spectrum where points are assigned as baseline if they reside within a locally defined threshold region. The threshold region is similar to a confidence interval encountered in statistics. To restrain baseline and band point discrimination to the local level, the calculation of the confidence region employs only a predefined number of already-accepted baseline minima as part of the sample set. Statistically based threshold criteria allow the procedure to make an unbiased assessment of baseline points regardless of the behavior of vibrational bands. Furthermore, the threshold region is adaptive in that it is further modified to consider abrupt changes in baseline. The present procedure is model-free insofar as it makes no assumption about the precise nature of the perturbing baseline nor requires treatment of spectra prior to execution.

Game 6 ended with punches thrown and beers tossed onto the ice by Bell Centre fans.
Will Game 7 feature the same aggression on the ice?
Steve Buckley and Danny Picard joined Sports Tonight to discuss if the bad blood will carry over to Game 7.
"I do expect the Bruins to come out and try to overwhelm the Canadiens with physicality." said Picard, "I don't expect the really dirty stuff, if you want to call it that, at the end of the game. I don't think that's going to carry over."
Buckley doesn't think the Bruins will want to put the Canadiens on the power play.
"You don't want to be that one guy, that commits the one penalty, that allows that one goal that you have to live with for the rest of the summer." said Buckley, "I also think the refs are going to put the whistle away."

Here is a Jamie Hewlett quote about the hologram tour Gorillaz decided not to do:
EDIT: Also, you clearly have never seen this documentary.JH: Basically, it was extremely expensive, extremely difficult, a million and one things can go wrong, every second that the thing's playing. We did that thing at the EMAs. That was a test of what it could be like. And when we sat and watched that, everyone involved was literally gnawing their fingernails, because we knew of the 65 things that could go wrong any second. And when it finished, when the three minutes was over and nothing went wrong, we all breathed a huge sigh of relief. So we realised that if we did a tour, it'd be a logistical nightmare.

Well I guess we have our answer.
Paul Hamm, the 2003 world all-around champion and 2004 Olympic all-around champion, has decided to abort his second attempt at an Olympic comeback, citing lack of cooperation from his nearly 30-year-old body.
It probably shouldn't come as a surprise to most of us, but it doesn't make it any less disappointing. Say what you will about Paul Hamm…from his history of abandoned comebacks, his questionable chances for his third Olympic team at nearly 30 years of age, or his controversial drunken cab fiasco this past fall, there's no denying we all were eagerly looking forward to seeing the American legend on the same gymnastics floor as today's current stars. It's the same reason we're all so intrigued with anticipation to see past Olympic champions Shawn Johnson and Nastia Liukin back in competition uniforms, performing alongside their less seasoned counterparts in a spectacular Olympic selection process. It's like seeing your favorite childhood band reunite and launch a worldwide tour after being disbanded for years. There's just something so captivating about a clash of generations…and something so inspiring about bringing back to life the memories that we ourselves cherish so dearly. For many of us, Paul Hamm represents these types of magical moments, which we all experienced together back in 2003 and 2004.
But just four months before the London Olympics, the greatest male gymnast in American history has once again hung up his grips. I think we all began to question whether his more mature body would be able to handle the unimaginable rigors of Olympic level training when he reinjured his shoulder and underwent another surgery last year, forcing him out of his highly anticipated comeback performance at the 2011 Winter Cup. If that wasn't enough to cast doubt on the champion's ambitious repeat-comeback, his shocking alleged assault of a cab driver this past September and the embarrassing videos that accompanied it signaled to many fans and skeptics alike that this comeback was likely not meant to be.
But in typical Paul Hamm fashion, the resilient hero who achieved the impossible at the Athens Olympics again bounced back from adversity, announcing he would in fact be continuing his quest for London, beginning at this year's Winter Cup. Although he didn't shine in the competition, talk began to surface that the former world and Olympic pommel horse finalist did have the potential to at least serve as a specialist on this absolutely critical event for Team USA. Although he had a ways to go in terms of fine-tuning the details and regaining that Olympic champion confidence, if we looked closely, we could still detect glimpses of the old Paul Hamm. Challenging fellow pommel horse contenders Alex Naddour and Glen Ishino for a spot on this summer's Olympic team was not out of the question.
So now that Paul is officially out of the race, what does that do to the remainder of the field of Olympic contenders? Well for starters, it gives a little more breathing room to pommel horse studs Naddour and Ishino. Each of these guys can now gain even more confidence that they are both truly in the hunt for spots in London – without having to curiously look over their shoulders to see what the former gold medalist is up to. It forces current stars Danell Leyva, John Orozco, and Jonathan Horton to accept the reality that the greatest male gymnast in U.S. history will not be joining them on the floor in this summer's Olympic Games. They'll now need to take responsibility – and draw inspiration – from the fact that they'll be leading this American team against the Chinese and Japanese without the man they all three undoubtedly idolized back in 2000 and 2004.
And it allows at least one gymnast to sneak into the top 12 on my "London StockWatch" list in place of Paul Hamm, whom I tentatively had ranked in 11th place among the field of Olympic contenders. For me, the gymnast who now steps into the top 12 is Sam Mikulak, who just competed brilliantly at the Pacific Rim Championships. I'll be highlighting Sam in my next post.
Goodbye, Paul, and thanks for the memories. You've been a true inspiration to countless athletes all over the world – not to mention those of us who still simply follow the sport – with your tenacity, your ambition, and your champion heart. I expect you'll take these qualities with you and put them into all that you do, and I look forward to seeing what else you accomplish. This sport will miss you dearly, but remember that there's a whole life out there you haven't even begun to live.

Hillsong Protest Planned Over Mark Driscoll's Conference Interview
Even the last protest was small, it garnered wide coverage in Australia. Given the fact that most Australian reporters seemed to think Brian Houston had agreed not to feature Mark Driscoll during the recent conference in Sydney, the media may turn out for this event in a similar manner. Here is the event description: Please bring protest signs. We will be protesting peacefully! Under enormous pressure from pro women groups and others, Hillsong senior pastor Brian Houston was very deceptive a … [Read more...]

Something I Don't Understand About Mark Driscoll's Resignation
In his interview with Brian Houston, Mark Driscoll said he had decided to go along with the restoration plan that the Mars Hill elders wanted to implement. He told Houston that he had given the go ahead for the plan which would have him returning to the pulpit on January 4, 2015. However, then on the Monday night after he said he would follow the elders' plan, God told him and his wife that they were released from ministry. Then he resigned.First of all, no one at the time said anything … [Read more...]
Hillsong Church Campaigners Feel Betrayed by Brian Houston's Interview with Mark & Grace Driscoll; London Protest Planned
Earlier this month, Brian Houston, pastor of Hillsong Church, appeared to respond to the protests and petitions about Mark Driscoll's appearance at the church's 2015 conferences. He issued a statement which sounded like Driscoll would not have a presence at the Hillsong conference, underway now in Sydney Australia. Houston said (full statement here):After personal interaction with Mark Driscoll today, we have agreed that he will no longer be coming to Australia or the UK to attend Hillsong C … [Read more...]

Part Two of Sutton Turner's Thoughts on Forgiveness
Today, former Mars Hill Church executive pastor Sutton Turner extends his Mars Hill reflections in part two of his series on repentance and forgiveness.I appreciate Turner's efforts here. These are not brief posts, but rather indicate that he has thought about these matters. He seems to want to make amends in a public sense with his detractors, not by criticizing them but by acknowledging his mistakes. For instance, he tweeted:I used justification of my actions & lack of time not … [Read more...]

Guide Gear Universal Padded Shooting Rail is rated out of 5 by 162.Rated 4 out of 5 by Cheryl from Great for the money Easy to put up. Great for the portability & good to hang camo from.Date published: 2015-09-24Rated 4 out of 5 by SONNY from An excellent product. I improved the stability since the rachet strap was not satisfactory. I drilled a 1/2 inch hole at the top of the backrest plate and anchored it with a 3 1/2 lag screw and at the bottom I did the same with a 1/4 lag screw. This also aided me in mounting the assembly using 10 penny nails through the top hole while positioning the assembly.Date published: 2015-09-22Rated 5 out of 5 by Paul542 from For the price it works great. I just bought my third one. I know the rail helps to steady the gun when shooting. Can't beat it for the price.Date published: 2015-09-16Rated 5 out of 5 by Comfy shooter from Awesome Product Still a few weeks till deer season gets under way, so I strapped it to my toilet tank to test it out. Having a poop has never been so comfortable.Date published: 2015-09-11Rated 4 out of 5 by CWBlunderbuss from Good Add-On for a Stand with no Rail Bought this to make a stand we call "Frankenstein," using parts from other stands instead of forking out $150 for an entirely new model. The rail went up easily. The pad is simply foam rubber with no cover (as shown on the box,) and it'll only last 1 season due to squirrels, etc. To be fair, SG shows the pad as it really is in its catalog photo. (Not a big deal, as my stand won't even allow me to rest up against it.) The railpad was the easiest and simplest to install, ever! This is NOT much of a safety rail, and it will flex. With this in-mind, set the unit up a bit higher than your desired shooting height, and once you apply weight it will spring down to where you want it. I also bought the military-style single stand blind material and the GG (flat) stand umbrella/roof. Made a quality, custom, low-profile stand for $40 thanks to Sportsman's Guide! Thanks, George.Date published: 2015-08-26Rated 5 out of 5 by Grocky from Fast shipping at a great price Everything was great about this sale.Date published: 2015-08-14Rated 5 out of 5 by James from padded rail The padded shooting rail is just what I needed to attach to my deer stand, the levelers will add to stabilize my stand perfectly, the holsters are something I needed. thanks for prompt service.Date published: 2015-08-08Rated 5 out of 5 by Trapper from Great price Been using these shooting rails on all my lock on stands for years gives you a security feeling great price and fast shipment thanks.Date published: 2015-08-03

 What are the Velcro straps for?

Asked by: Dick

 The velcro straps are to attach the padded foam backrest to the metal frame. Without the padded backrest the screw heads would poke you in the back.

MPCSD really doesn't have the right to crow about their high test scores for white and Asian students if other groups don't have an even playing field, so kudos to Ms. Devoto for a very worthwhile effort. Unfortunately, though, this particular program is targeted to minority groups, while other underperforming students who would could also benefit -- such as those with learning differences or disabilities -- are not included. Hillview should find a way to widen this approach not only to include 6th graders, but to include any and all students who are not performing to grade-level norms.

"engages at risk students" equals "teaching to the test"
When is the high-priced superintendent Ghysels finally going to step out from behind the ladies and start earning his money?
