varthurs added a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & MedicationsSkinny Girl ProductsBelow is the response I promptly received from Skinnygirl regarding gluten in their products. I'm curious if what they say about distillation is correct and if these would be considered safe? Thanks.
The ingredients in Skinnygirl Margarita are not produced from cereals containing gluten and do not contain gluten.
The alcohol in Skinnygirl Sangria do not contain gluten. A portion of the other ingredients in this product were produced from cereals containing gluten that were added prior to distillation. Gluten can be found in small grains such as rye, barley, oats, wheat, etc. It is generally accepted that the process of distillation excludes gluten in the finished product.
The primary alcohol sources in Skinnygirl Cosmo, Bare Nakes, Cucumber, and Tangerine are produced from the fermentation and distillation of cereals containing gluten such as rye, barley, oats, wheat, etc.. Gluten can be found in small grains such as rye, barley, oats, wheat, etc. It is generally accepted that the process of distillation excludes gluten in the finished product. The secondary alcohol source and other ingredients are not produced from cereals containing gluten and do not contain gluten.

varthurs added a post in a topic Done With ThisThank you, all. It's nice to know you can come on here and get it all out. I actually woke up this morning feeling a bit better physically. It will be quite some time before I get lazy in the restaurant department.
varthurs added a topic in Celiac Disease - Coping WithDone With ThisThis is a vent, feel sorry for myself post.
I was diagnosed with GERD, Barretts Esophagus and celiac disease about 6 weeks ago and went gluten and dairy free.
I started to feel better until last week when my Mom passed away after a long battle with cancer. it was so difficult to manage this diet with all of the company from out of town, being stressed, pasta dinners made by well meaning people, etc. I thought I did ok until Tuesday when I went to the diner. I asked the waitress if they had a gluten free menu and she said "you mean some kind of lunch specials?" I should have RAN!! Instead, I went "safe" and ordered an egg salad platter (on lettuce). It had coleslaw, egg salad and potato salad. I thought it was ok. I have been sick since. Woke up Wednesday morning violently ill and spent the whole day in the bathroom. Then I decided since I felt so disgusting anyway, that i'd just eat the orange gel rings (gluten free, but chocolate has lactose). Now it's Friday night and I am a mess. My stomach is crampy and bloated, I am in a fog and totally depressed. Now of course, I can't figure out if this is all stress related to my Mom or if it is a combination of both. Anyone want to share how long their sickness from being glutened lasts? This is my first time.
Anyway, this sucks and I am so mad that I have this stupid disease. It's making my life miserable. To make matters worse, I am going through the death of my Mom and have NO source of comfort. Can't eat, can't smoke (quit 2 months ago) and can't drink alcohol (Barrett's). UGH!!!!!
Thanks for the vent. It's impossible to explain to other people. I feel like they are all sick of hearing me talk about this. I am sick of listening to me.

varthurs added a topic in Celiac Disease - Coping WithFreaked OutI have been gluten free for 3 weeks (confirmed celiac by blood work and biopsy) and I have also been lactose free for 1 week.
Today when I went to the bathroom, my stool was yellow and had oil around it.
Does this mean I have eaten something with either lactose or gluten? This is the first time I've ever seen this and it scared me. I have been super careful about what I'm eating, so don't see how I could have made a mistake.

varthurs added a topic in Celiac Disease - Related Disorders & ResearchFructose Intolerance?A little history:
Back in October I started doing the South Beach Diet. While on Phase 1 (no carbs, only veggies and lean protein/low fat dairy) I have never felt better. When I went off I felt VERY ill. Being a constant Weight Watcher member, I was amazed that I could do this South Beach and feel so unbloated and ungassy. On WW I was always suffering with gas and bloating. That is when I suspected Celiac. I went for a blood test and it came back positive. I went for my endoscopy last Monday and the doctor said he sees abnormalities and to start eating gluten free. He also saw an excessive amount of reflux and put me on daily Prilosec. I see him next Monday to get the official results of the biopsy.
So now I started eating gluten free. Trying to eat all non-processed foods. It has been 1 week. My head is clearer but my stomach is still horrible. Yesterday with lunch I ate a nectarine and flavored seltzer. About an hour after I was in excruciating pain and the terrible gas started. I did not eat ANYTHING that could have been contaminated yesterday. At first I thought may be the seltzer, but it said water, carbonation and natural flavors.
I am starting to suspect that I have a fructose intolerance. I have always had gas issues with apples, grapes and raisins. But I also wonder if I am just not healed yet and it's the celiac.
Any thoughts???
Thanks in advance

I have been reading up about what are safe and unsafe foods, but I am feeling very overwhelmed by the list. Any suggestions on how to start this up a little less painfully? I am reading labels and cross checking my unsafe list, but I can't deal with doing that every time I want to eat something. Should I go to a nutritionist? Would that be helpful?

varthurs added a topic in Gluten-Free RestaurantsNew To This - Need HelpI am brand new to this - just started eating gluten free yesterday, after my biopsy. I know that Outback and Olive Garden offer gluten-free dishes. I am a very busy Mom of 2 kids that always have me running. We eat out alot. If I were to go to any random restaurant and ask for a grilled chicken breast, a baked potato and veggies, would that be safe? Or does it have to be only a restaurant that offers gluten-free?
Going out tonight for my parents anniversary. This weekend is my husbands birthday. I hate to think that there are only 2 choices nearby.

I can't thank you all enough for your words of encouragement. What a wonderful website and group of people I have found. I am confident that you will all make this journey a little more tolerable. I hope some day I can be as supportive and helpful.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!
varthurs added a post in a topic Questions About Test ResultsThanks again. That is good to know. I am spending too much time on different websites and I am freaking myself out. I have an aunt with scheloderma and you can only imagine where my head keeps going. I was going to pass on the biopsy, but I've decided that I am going to do it. This has been the longest few weeks. At this point I just want to get the show on the road. I appreciate your help.
varthurs added a post in a topic Please Help - Endomysial Ab Iga Results - Should I Eat Gluten For 6 More Weeks Until Biopsy?I can't wait to see what everyone says. I am waiting for my specialist appointment as well, all the while feeling terrible...I feel your pain.
varthurs added a topic in Celiac Disease - Coping WithSad, Worried, Sad, Sad, Sad, Worried, Etc.I have recently received blood tests that would indicate that I have Celiac Disease. I'm waiting for appt. with specialist. But honestly, I asked my Doctor to test me for it, so i'm pretty sure I have this lovely condition no matter what the biopsy says. And boy oh boy, am I SAD. Isn't that a strange reaction? But really, no more beer? My favorite meals are all italian, pasta, breaded chicken cutlets. I am a junk food junkie. Pretzels are my favorite snack. And on top of this, I am a lazy cook. For that, I am very worried. How am I going to survive this? Sorry, I figured if there was a place to vent, it would be here. I really just want to cry.
But on the same note, I really want to feel better. I am sick and tired of being sick and tired. Can anyone give me some good news? Can I expect to lose weight (need to lose about 20)? Will my fatigue go away? Anxiety be gone? Is this going to be a cure-all, or I am weighing too much on this?
Oh and I am also already dreading that one of my kids is going to have this because of me.
Sorry to be all "debbie downer".

Breast Lift Surgery $4,000 (saline breast implants), Create a More Youthful Breast Contour
Women can reshape and resize their breasts to reverse the signs of aging. Breast lift and breast reduction procedures performed at Coral Gables Cosmetic Center in South florida, can provide women with contour and shape, volume and fullness. As women age, the weakened elasticity of their skin becomes most evident in their breasts. A mastoplexy also known as (breast lift) returns breasts to a "perky" and full shape, and restores patients' confidence by vastly improving their appearance.
Breastfeeding, fluctuations in weight and the general aging process all take their toll on a woman's shape. Drooping, saggy breasts that have lost their volume and contours are uncomfortable and an undeniable sign of a woman's age. Breast lift surgery is designed to reverse the impact of time and give women a more aesthetic shape, with firmer breasts that are in a better position. Many women choose to combine a breast lift with breast implants, meaning they undergo one surgery yet benefit from the enhancements both procedures provide.
The most common breast lift surgery procedure involves an anchor-shaped incision, which wraps around the nipple, then along the bottom of the breast and inframammary fold. Excess skin and tissue are removed at the incision site, and if required the nipple and areola are repositioned to sit higher on the breast. The time required for the surgery depends on the amount of lift being sought, the individual patient, and whether breast implants are being included in the procedure.
Can Breast Augmentation Be Combined With a Lift? Yes. Breast augmentation can be performed with a breast lift and many women choose to have these two procedures performed together. The lift will provide you with the perky, youthful breasts you are looking for while the augmentation will provide you with the fullness and size you desire.
1. Peri-Areolar Lift
Often called a donut lift, this type of breast lift is ideal for someone who has minimal sagging. This procedure uses an incision that goes around the outside of your areola. The breast is then lifted and adjusted for a beautiful shape.
Many people choose to pair a breast augmentation with the donut lift. The areola is often adjusted in size during the procedure as well. That way, you do not have to worry about a stretched areola on a perky breast.
2. Crescent Lift
The crescent lift is another breast lift that is often paired with breast implants. This procedure is ideal for those who have a minimal amount of sagging. The incision will be placed along the top half of the areola. A crescent lift is not common, but it can be done based on the needs of the patient and the preferences of the surgeon.
3. Inverted T Lift
The inverted T lift is often referred to as the anchor lift. The procedure is performed on those who have a considerable amount of sagging and a large amount of excess skin. During surgery, the surgeon will remove the skin and fat to provide you with a beautiful breast lift.
The incisions in this procedure are different than the first two types of lifts. There will be three incisions made on the breast. One will go along the edge of the areola, one will go along the crease underneath the breast, and the other will go from the bottom of the areola to the crease on the underside of the breast.
The incisions will fade over time if you properly care for them and when you wear a bra or bikini top, they cannot be seen.
4. Vertical Lift
The vertical lift or lollipop lift is used often in cosmetic surgery offices. During the procedure, the surgeon is able to remove the excess skin that is on the breast that causes sagging. Once the skin is removed, the breast can be reshaped and contoured on the body.
The incisions are not as intense as the inverted T lift. Two incisions will be made including one that runs from the bottom of the areola to the crease under the breast and one around the edge of the areola.
Similar to most other surgical procedures, there is a recovery period to be expected after having breast lift surgery. Patients are recommended to plan for a week off work, and for two-weeks post surgery can experience some swelling, bruising, and soreness. To ease discomfort pain medication can be prescribed. To speed the healing process, patients wear a supportive garment that controls swelling and protects the incision site. The results of a breast lift become fully evident after approximately four weeks. Scars will fade into a pale line when treated in accordance with your physician's directions. Patients will be checked regularly by their Coral Gables board-certified physician during their recovery period.

Photosynthetic bacteria in Burton Lake, a seasonally tidal, meromictic lake of maximum depth 18 m, located in the Vestfold Hills, Antarctica, were studied throughout 1983. The dominant species were Chlorobium vibrioforme and Chlorobium limicola (up to 5.4 × 106 cells ml−1) and minor species were Thiocapsa roseopersicina (< 1.25 × 105 cells ml−1) and Rhodopseudomonas palustris (< 100 cells ml−1). The Chlorobium spp. and T. roseopersicina were found throughout the anoxic water, which ranged in temperature from −0.5°C to −2.2°C, but did not form discrete layers at the O2−H2S interface. The growth zone, however, of the Chlorobium spp. was delineated by the presence of light and H2S and was restricted to less than 3 m below the O2−H2S interface. R. palustris was found in oxic and anoxic water. Available light, which varied from 0–4.9µE m−2 s−1 at the O2−H2S interface, was considered to be the major environmental factor controlling growth of the bacterial phototrophs. Growth was initiated in spring in low light levels (< 1 µE m−2 s−1) following 3 months of darkness during winter. It is concluded that the dominance of the Chlorobium spp. was a result of their more efficient maintenance metabolism in winter and of their greater efficiency in utilizing low intensity light.

This week we are in Zone 4: The Master Bedroom
This month's Habit is: Decluttering for 15 Minutes a Day
Zone 4: Mission #1 Monday
Ahhhh the Master Bedroom!! This is the one room that seems to get things tossed into it when you can't find any other place to put something away.
Your mission for today is to set your timer for 15 minutes and gather up some things that just don't belong in your bedroom. Spend 5 minutes gathering and 10 minutes on a delivery mission to either put things away or toss them in the trash!!No obsessing or criticizing yourself as to why these things are there, just focus on getting them OUT!!!
Zone 4: Mission #2 Tuesday
Today is the day to attack the clothes pile. Now you all know what I am talking about. This pile is either on a chair, on top of the hamper, dresser or at the foot of your bed. Set your timer for 15 minutes and grab some hangers or start folding. While you are doing this do not hang up or fold something that you hate! This is the time to let it go!! If you do not love it, send it right out the door!
Zone 4: Mission #3 Wednesday
It is Anti-Procrastination Day and we are going to clean off the night stands!! Get the tissues, cups and stuff that has piled up; toss and put away. Then grab a feather duster or dust rag and dust the surfaces. Place a pretty candle or picture there. Something that is new to that spot that you love to see.
Waking up and not seeing a pile of things on the nightstand and a pile of clothes will make your morning a little brighter!
PS : If you have some extra pretty, nice sheets for your bed, make sure they are washed and ready for Friday's mission. This means pillow cases and blankets also.
Zone 4: Mission #4 Thursday
Yesterday we worked on the nightstands and today we are going after the dressers! Get rid of anything that is not necessary! Instead of a pile up of cosmetics, place them in a Ziploc bag and then store them in a drawer when not in use. For perfumes and colognes, toss what you no longer use and place your favorites on a pretty tray, plate or mirror. Keep this space neat and clutter free, you will love to wake up to the flat surfaces in your decluttered bedroom.
Zone 4: Mission #5 Friday
Today is the day to remake your bed. This may take a little longer than usual but so well worth it. Strip your bed and remake it. Get someone to help you flip the mattress, if you can't, then try just to turn it around. If you have some fabric spray that you like,spray your mattress and pillows. Then place those crisp freshly washed sheets and blanket on. Take extra care when making the bed. Really tuck those corners in and fluff the pillows. An extra tip is to toss your pillow in the dryer for added freshness and fluff. Use your bedspread or comforter and make up the rest of the bed. Take your time and know how much you will enjoy getting into your bed tonight and how wonderful it will feel.
Maybe tonight you will go to bed a little earlier or stay in bed a little longer tomorrow morning just taking some time to enjoy something so simple yet rewarding.

Deep Purple's Ian Gillan is backing a world record attempt for the most number of amateur guitarists playing at the same time.
The singer will take a break from Deep Purple's world tour to front Guitars On The Beach, the massive attempt on the world record for the greatest number of guitarists simultaneously playing one song together – with the band's classic Smoke On The Water one of the songs being performed.
It will take place on Lyme Regis beach on Saturday, September 6. Gillan – who has sold more than 100 million albums and has a home in the Dorset seaside town – astonished organisers by volunteering to take part.
After hearing that organisers were planning to include the Deep Purple hit in the set of songs for the giant beach band to perform, he sent them a note saying: "I hear you might be doing Smoke with the massed guitars and if that is the case I thought I'd offer my services if you need a singer."
Guitars On The Beach organiser Geoff Baker says: "My jaw hit the floor. This is sensational news."
The event was launched last year and drew 2267 guitarists of all ages and abilities to Lyme from all over the UK, setting a record as Britain's biggest band as they performed Buddy Holly's hit Rave On.
This year organisers are planning to make it even bigger. More guitarists are signing up every day to join the enormous band who will make the record attempt playing three songs – Rave On, the Status Quo hit Rocking All Over The World and Smoke On The Water.
Baker adds: "Clearly Smoke On The Water will now be the main event for many. It's the classic guitar riff and not difficult to play. Massed guitar bands in America, Germany, Canada and Poland have all had a crack at the world record playing Smoke – but none of them has ever been led by Ian Gillan before.
"This is going to be amazing, and many more people will now want to take part. It's quite something to write home about, that you once played with Ian Gillan in a band with thousands of guitarists."
The current world record has been held since 2009 by an event in Poland, which amassed 6546 guitarists.
To take part, sign up at the event website.

Birding, General Natural History
February 21, 2016 - March 02, 2016
This program is full to capacity. Please contact Debbie Sturdivant Jordan at email@example.com to be added to the wait list for the 2017 trip.Experience the burgeoning life, color and warmth of Costa Rica's varied habitats with Julie Zickefoose! Julie is one of the most engaging natural history writers/illustrators of today. Author of The Bluebird Effect and Letters from Eden, Julie barely contains searing curiosity, formidable artistic and interpretational skills, and a rollicking sense of fun in one dynamic package.
Join a small group of explorers set loose in this jungle paradise, just when the northern winter is at its dreariest. Look, listen, smell and feel your way through one of the most diverse and thrilling biomes on earth. We'll keep travel to a minimum with plenty of stops along the way. If you love getting up close and personal with birds, animals, insects and plants; if you love wondering why birds do what they do; if you're the type who will stop to admire a tree or a cloud, or to truly listen to a robin sing, this is the trip for you.
Julie Zickefoose started off as an illustrator of natural history subjects as a college freshman in 1976. A six-year stint as a field biologist with The Nature Conservancy`s Connecticut Chapter proved a strong motivator both to learn more about ecosystems and to go back to drawing. Along the way, she began to write her own essays, studded with observations of birds and animals, and writing slowly crept into the forefront of her interests. Bird Watcher`s Digest has been the major print venue for her writing since 1986, and she`s painted 26 covers for the magazine. She had a five-year run as a commentator for National Public Radio`s All Things Considered, telling about bird-eating bullfrogs and hummingbirds who came home to their foster mother, among other subjects.
Julie`s first book of illustrated essays, Letters from Eden, was published by Houghton Mifflin in 2006. She contributed natural history commentaries to National Public Radio`s All Things Considered from 2005-2010. Julie Zickefoose on Blogspot entertains around 30,000 visits per month.
Her current book, The Bluebird Effect: Uncommon Bonds With Common Birds, was Oprah`s Book of the Week in April 2012. It`s an amalgam of memoir, natural history and beautiful watercolor paintings and life sketches. She is now at work on a heavily illustrated book on songbird development, titled Baby Birds: An Artist Looks Into the Nest.
Go birding with Julie and expert guide Mario Córdoba, with emphasis on behavioral and natural history interpretation.
Watch birds through new eyes, as we linger to see what they're doing and how they fit into the complex web of tropical ecology.
Appreciate mammals, insects, and plants in a big-picture sweep through a variety of ecosystems.
Maximize photography and observational opportunities while learning field craft in approaching wildlife.
Upon arrival in San José, meet your guide and transfer to the hotel. Located five miles from downtown San José, Hotel Bougainvillea is surrounded by beautiful gardens and panoramic views. Overnight Hotel Bouganvillea
Drive north to La Ensenada Lodge with lunch en route. The lodge is located on the Tempisque River, an area known for its dry forest system, attracting birds such as herons, bellbirds, ibis, pelicans, and others. Enjoy plenty of roadside birding today and arrive at the lodge in the afternoon. Overnight La Ensenada Lodge (BLD)
This morning take an early boat ride on the Tempisque River for birdwatching. The river passes through Palo Verde National Park and encompasses mangroves, swamps, and both freshwater and saltwater lagoons, providing a crucial habitat for various species of crocodiles and monkeys. The area also attracts bird species such as Roseate Spoonbill, White Ibis, Little Blue Heron, Bare-throated Tiger Heron, Boat-billed Heron, and Tropical Kingbird. The remainder of the day will be spent birding the grounds. Overnight La Ensenada Lodge (BLD)
After some morning birding, depart to Hacienda Solimar for a morning tour and lunch. At Hacienda Solimar, observe a variety of birds among the dry scrub including Lesser Ground-Cuckoo, Spot-breasted Bobwhite, and several different species of wildfowl, heron, egret, raptor and kingfisher. The deciduous forest of the area is home to parrots, orioles, woodcreepers, warblers, antbirds, raptors, owls and nightjars. We will arrive in the Jaco area in the afternoon. This is the northernmost region of Pacific rainforest remaining in Costa Rica, and is the beginning of the transition zone into the tropical dry forests of the northwest. Have some time to relax and then look for Scarlet Macaws and other species. Overnight Villa Lapas (BLD)
Today spend the full day at the Carara National Park, one of the birding hotspots of Costa Rica. The park is located in Costa Rica`s Central Pacific region, which is one the most ecologically diverse areas of the country. The intersection of the northwestern tropical dry forest habitats with the humid rainforests of the South Pacific region in a relatively small area produces a very interesting combination of species from both ecosystems. Featuring transitional forest, the park can be traversed by a union of natural trails and hanging bridges that span throughout a wonderful rainforest of centenary trees. Keep your eyes peeled for Golden-naped Woodpecker, Baird`s Trogon, Orange-collared Manakin, Riverside Wren, Black-hooded Antshrike, Dot-winged Antwren, Long-billed Gnatwren, and Chestnut-backed Antbird. Overnight Villa Lapas (BLD)
This morning embark on a private boat ride along the Tárcoles River and watch for both water and shore birds like Double-striped Thick-knee, Roseate Spoonbill, jacanas, and ducks. The Tárcoles River basin is one of the most important in the Pacific coastal region, virtually draining the entire western side of the Central Valley. The Tárcoles hosts an amazing diversity of wildlife along its banks and in the extensive mangrove areas near its estuary. The river is a perfect spot to catch a glimpse of mangrove specialties such as the rare Rufous-necked Wood-rail, Mangrove Hummingbird, Pygmy Kingfisher, Panama Flycatcher, Mangrove Vireo, Mangrove (yellow) Warbler and Scrub Greenlet. But, perhaps the most famous of all its inhabitants are the enormous crocodiles that live on its banks. These crocodiles have been studied by numerous local and foreign specialists and even featured in TV specials. During the afternoon, depart to Esquinas Rainforest Lodge with lunch en route. Overnight Esquinas Rainforest Lodge (BLD)
Full day birding Esquinas trails, grounds and La Gamba Road. The Esquinas forest is categorized as lowland tropical wet forest and has more than 340 recorded bird species, including Black-striped Woodcreeper, Black-cheeked Ant Tanager, Brown-throated Parakeet, Southern Lapwing, Veraguan Mango, Sapphire-throated Hummingbird, Slate-colored Seedeater, Ruddy-breasted Seedeater, Red-breasted Blackbird and Crested Oropendola. Overnight Esquinas Rainforest Lodge (BLD)
Early departure for Savegre, with a visit to Los Cusingos Bird Sanctuary and the Alexander Skutch house. Los Cusingos Bird Refuge is part of the Don Alexander Biological Corridor which reaches as far as the Chirripo National Park. The 192 acres of protected lands were once part of the farm owned by Dr. Alexander Skutch, a respected naturalist and prolific writer (coauthor of "A Guide to the Birds of Costa Rica"). The small and simple house where Dr. Skutch lived and worked for more than 60 years is now the Skutch Lankester House Museum. Nature lovers can observe and admire local flora and fauna through a system of trails that weave through the reserve`s pre-montane wet forest. Tanagers, honeycreepers, parrots, falcons, hummingbirds and woodpeckers are often seen here as well as a number of mammals including agoutis, sloths, tayras and monkeys. Birders should also keep a look out for Turquoise Cotinga, Speckled Tanager, Slaty Spinetail, Red-legged Honeycreeper, Rufous-browed Peppershrike and Fork-tailed Flycatcher. After a full day of birding, arrive in Savegre. Make sure to bring your cameras because the natural vegetation near the feeders offers great photographic opportunities. Overnight Savegre Mountain Hotel, Natural Reserve & Spa (BLD)
Spend the full day exploring the upper and lower trails at Savegre in search of the famous Resplendent Quetzal and some of the reserve`s other 170 species. This forest is amazing to walk through. The large centennial oaks that cover it are laden with lichens and mosses that contrast with the colorful bromeliads. The forest is rich with insects, mammals, and amphibians, and the pristine valley is a paradise for birdwatchers. Keep a look out for Spotted Wood-Quail, Costa Rican Pygmy-Owl, Collared Trogon, Buffy Tufted-cheek, Ruddy Treerunner, Ochraceous Pewee, Barred Becard, and Golden-browed Chlorophonia just to name a few. After a full day of exploration, settle in and check out the hummingbird feeders situated in front of reception and also off the balcony of the lounge. The feeders are always active with resident Magnificent Hummingbird, Green Violetear with flared blue cheek tufts, White-bellied Mountaingem, Volcano Hummingbird, and the tiny Scintillant Hummingbird. Overnight Savegre Mountain Hotel, Natural Reserve & Spa (BLD)
Depart for the Central Valley with stops at the paramo and Los Quetzales National Park. Specialties of the paramo ecosystem include Volcano Junco, Timberline Wren, Zeledonia, Black-and-yellow Silky-flycatcher, Black-billed Nightingale-Thrush, Fiery-throated Hummingbird, and Volcano Hummingbird. Lunch en route or box lunch from Savegre. Arrive at the hotel in the afternoon. Farewell dinner at the hotel. Overnight Hotel Bougainvillea (BLD)

Weight:240 lbs. / 108.9 kg.
The Nets will not make a qualifying offer to Jerome Jordan before June 30, although he could return, according to league sources. The move is essentially a bookkeeping move to give the Nets more flexibility. Jordan would have become a restricted free agent if the Nets had made the offer.
A league source said the team has no immediate plans to fill its currently open 15th and final roster spot in the wake of Davies being released. Like Morris, Jerome Jordan and rookie Cory Jefferson — both of whom had partial guarantees — became fully guaranteed by remaining on the roster.

Development of 'deemed-to-satisfy' criteria
As part of Green Star Revolution, we promised to reduce documentation requirements. One way we're doing this is by developing 'deemed-to-satisfy' criteria for a number of credits that currently require extensive documentation.
Deemed-to-satisfy criteria will reduce the time and cost involved with the certification process for credits that are generally assessed through modelling practices.
According to Green Star Technical Manager, Jorge Chapa, the work has been undertaken through the Green Star – Custom process.
"As we've been developing customised rating tools, we have explored how modelling-intensive credits can be accessed through other options. For example, we're looking at how to make the 'Access to Daylight' credit easier to use, by substituting often-expensive daylight modelling with simple measurements of the floor plan.
"Another example is developing a method for assessing the energy consumption of a building through deemed-to-satisfy options. We started the ball rolling through the Green Star – Custom process, and are now developing it further for Green Star – Interiors," Jorge explains.
"The work we've done so far has confirmed that introducing deemed-to-satisfy criteria for modelling credits is no longer just an option for Green Star - it is part of how we deliver more efficient rating tools."

Slideshow: 17 Recipes for Your Rosh Hashanah Feast
Carrot and Chickpea Salad with Fried Almonds
Carrots and chickpeas are tossed in a lemon vinaigrette flavored with cilantro, smoked paprika and cumin—an unusual but delicious combination. For a sweeter variation, try adding currants, honey, and cinnamon.
Arugula, Apple, and Pomegranate Salad with Cider-Honey Vinaigrette
This salad of peppery arugula, crisp apples and juicy pomegranate seeds embraces the holiday's classic ingredients in a non-traditional fashion. Better yet, it's as pretty as it is delicious!
Spiced Carrot Salad with Olives
A combination of coriander seeds, red pepper flakes, and toasted cumin gives the carrots an earthy spiciness that plays against salty, vinegary olives and refreshing cilantro.
Bourbon Glazed Carrots
Ring in the New Year with the ideal celebratory dish: tender and sweet carrots tossed in glaze of booze, brown sugar, and butter.
Barbecue Brisket
Time is crucial for this smoky brisket—it takes about 16 hours to cook, but you'll be generously rewarded with the most tender, moist cut imaginable.
Sweet and Sour Brisket With Pomegranate Molasses and Dried Fruit
The dried fruit in this recipe cooks down to a near paste and caramelizes, adding a lovely depth both to the meat and the sauce. The key here is slow, steady, patient heat—you get tender, delicately cooked meat that just melts in your mouth.
Lamb Meatballs with Yogurt and Pomegranate Seed Sauce
Savory lamb meatballs and a creamy, pomegranate seed-studded sauce combine for a quick and easy Middle Eastern-inspired dinner. Yes, we know, this guy isn't exactly what you'd call kosher...
Honey Baked Chicken
This chicken may take its cues from Thailand, but it's spirit is well-suited for a Jewish celebration. A fine paste of garlic, peppercorns, and cilantro roots work in tandem with fish sauce and honey for a sweet and sour roast.
Honey Chipotle Wings
With Rosh Hashanah so early this year, a cookout celebration is still on the table. These wings give a nod to the New Year's sweetness, while embracing a more casual backyard-style vibe.
Garlic and Rosemary Lamb Chops With a Honey-Cider Glaze
A quick marinade in olive oil, garlic, and rosemary lends complementary earthy flavors to the chops without overpowering the unique meaty flavor of the lamb. As is, the crusty lamb chops are good enough on their own, but a quick pan sauce made from honey and apple cider provides a subtly sweet counterpoint to the savory lamb.
Potato Kugel
A hearty mix of potatoes, onion, and eggs, folded with some flour, makes for a substantive and filling meal, not to mention a New Year's staple.
This one goes without saying—no Jewish celebration is complete without some fluffy, sweet challah. It's customary to braid it into a round for the New Year; check out this video to see how!
Honey Ginger Pumpkin Butter
Another delicate spread just begging for a schmear on your New Year's challah, this recipe marries honey's delicate sweetness with the pronounced zing of fresh ginger.

Historical Traveler Reviews The Windsor Suites Philadelphia
Good Location - Atrocious Parking - So So Staff
The Windsor has a very convenient and attractive parkway location ? an easy walk to most center city destinations.Parking situation horrendous ? NO stopping AT ALL allowed in front of the hotel to unload bags etc. The ?loading space? in the adjacent hotel garage was occupied the whole time we were there by building residents and staff.Garage staff very inattentive and rude. Made worse by the complicated parking system which no one at the desk or garage took time to explain, instead rudely chastising us because we were not aware of the quirky parking rules and their Byzantine complexity.The rooms were spacious and very well priced for Center City. The kitchen was a handy addition especially if planning a longer stay. Maintenance generally poor; broken and sticky doors, leaky showerhead which sprayed water all over the bathroom, electrical cords dangerously run under carpeting etc. Room heater either baking hot or too cold ? not possible to adjust it with any accuracy.The front desk staff varied ? some very helpful and friendly and others with an ?I can?t be bothered? attitude. (Understandable as they were seriously understaffed ? only one desk clerk on at a time the whole weekend.) The Bellmen were very nice; quite helpful with the impossible loading / unloading situation.I would stay again, but only if on a tight budget, and if I had no car. If traveling by car I would opt for the Comfort Inn next door which has an unloading zone.The mixed use building results in some problems. While the hotel has a nice ?apartment building? feel, many of the full time residents seemed to resent hotel guests in the building.Overall I?d give the Windsor a C-
Beautiful, Spacious, Comfortable
This hotel is an excellent choice for anyone visiting Philadelphia. It is situated in a great location, in the center of the city near all of the tourist attractions. I was quite impressed by the spaciousness of the room. The beds were very comfortable (and this says a lot, since I am a trouble-sleeper!). The room was immaculately clean, and everything was in working order. The service was prompt and courteous. I would highly reccomend this hotel to anyone!
Great hotel along the parkway!
I stayed here July,8,2003 and was very pleased by the service,the doorman seemed like he didn't even want the tip for carrying the bags up,the view was fair. I loved the view from the rooftop pool,that is one of the best views of center city and the Liberty Place skyscrapers from anywhere except from the top of City Hall,amazing place! There is a TGIF Fridays close to the hotel,everything is close from there aka Phila Museum Of Art,Center City,Penns Landing is a bit of a walk though. The rooms are all suties,i've read alot of complaints about this hotel,I didn't find any,the $22 parking fee is a bit of a joke though,luckily a got a good deal on the Hotel Windsor web site,I booked early in Febuary though.The front desk was friendly and helpful too,do yourself a favor visit Philly,you will not want to go home,you might even consider moving to the Phila,PA,DE,NJ area,I wish to someday!
A good deal
We just returned from a three night stay in the Windsor, Philadelphia. This hotel was a good choice, large room with 2 beds and a kitchen, including a fridge, microwave, toaster. Ideal for families (we have 2 kids) also there is lots of closet space.There was some problem with the bath/shower, but this was fixed promptly. Continental breakfast included. We got a good deal using hotels.com and mapquest provided easy directions. We loved Philadelphia.
Good launch pad for downtown sites.
Nice having the kitchen facilities in the room - even if all you're doing is heating up leftovers.
Be prepared for the garage fees if you're driving - $22/night can get expensive.
Good location for easy access to museums and shows - moderate walk to some of the historical sites. AAA office is nearby, in case you forgot your travel guide.
No computer network access in the rooms, but there is a phone connection for modem use.
Room was clean and comfortable.
Phili cheesesteak sandwiches didn't do anything for me. Tried one from Geno's - don't know what the fuss is all about, but knew I'd have to report the experience.
The Windsor has the best view and best price in the city
We were very pleased with the spacious accomidations, plus the best views and location in the city. Great management, accommodating staff. A sure repeater!!
Great Hotel, Great Value
We had a great stay, staff went out of there way to ensure we enjoyed our weekend trip to Philadelphia. The room was probley the largest I have ever stayed with great extras. Long story short, Great Hotel, Great Location, Great Value.Thankyou, we will be back!!!!
OK, the first thing is the location please def. print out a map if this is your first time, quite confusing. We called the hotel 3 times, twice we received the wrong directions until our third attempt. We arrived, there is a nightly parking fee of $29, what! I mean I am paying almost $200 a night, no discount on parking. We walk in, no doorman which is fine but we actually walked in to the hotel and smelled drugs, yes drugs. I think everyone noticed but no one said anything, great first impression, now I am nervous. Front desk NIGHT staff knew nothing, they gave us a hotel room that was already taken by someone else we literally walked into someone else's room! And by the way they gave us attitude for interuupting them at the front desk, then when I gave it back we received an apology. I won't even tell you that she told me there wasn't a gym in ther hotel when there was an actual sigh behind her saying fitness center this way...hahaha...can you believe that! By the time we got to our room it was 11:00 and Valentines, terrible. By the morning my hubby got an allergic reaction to the room because it was so dusty and he is allergic so we left. I will never ever tell anyone to stay here, even if it was fluke, I have requested the hotel to reimburse me! And there is no "do not disturb sign" so the maid walks right in and this donne while we were sleeping in the morning, in bed. TERRIBLE!
Great Place
I have stayed at the windsor twice and I am staying there again this weekend. This hotel is great. You get the biggest room I have ever stayed in at a really good price.
Nice Place
My wife and I spent two nights at Hotel Windsor in July, 2002. We were pleased with the accomodations and the service. And the price was right -- quite a bargain.
The room was clean and comfortable and equipped with a full kitchen, including a dishwasher. There is a rooftop pool with a pleasant view of the city. Two restaurants on site.
We called the front desk to ask for extra pillows and they were delivered within 10 minutes.
All in all, an affordable and pleasant place.

The Internet is the latest tool for compassionate activism. When the sight of Angelina Jolie's legs goes viral, she magnifies her female celebrity by focusing attention on the miseries of Darfur. She teases and titillates in a celebrity culture and uses her fame for a good cause.
But the Internet is not necessarily the best means for educating the public about injustice. It confuses and deceives as well.
When a remarkable documentary video called "Kony 2012" circulated on Facebook and YouTube, promoted on Twitter by Hollywood celebrities, it drew more than 80 million viewers. Jason Russell, the young filmmaker who made the video, became an instant hero for telling the world about Joseph Kony, a brutal Ugandan warlord who kidnapped unsuspecting children and forced them into prostitution and a children's army to wreak murder and mayhem.
Instant fame is not always benign. It turns out that Mr. Russell, a co-founder of Invisible Children, an organization trying to find Kony and rescue the children, was not careful with the facts. His video contains errors; its history is outdated; and the African conflicts are dangerously simplified. Kony fled Uganda six years ago and hasn't been seen there since, and the children's army is diminished and scattered.
The sloppy research seems aimed at a kindergarten mentality, literally, as the filmmaker uses his son, age 5, to act as a "commentator." Commercial shortcuts peddling feel-good slogans inscribed on bracelets and splashed on posters protesting the warlord's evil deeds eventually drew questions about the filmmaker's finances. He collapsed with a mental breakdown. He was videotaped running naked down a street in San Diego. He was diagnosed with a "reactive psychosis" and put in a hospital.
This is a story reflecting unintended consequences of the digital age run amok. It has farcical and pitiful dimensions of an Internet melodrama rising from undisciplined, unedited, uneducated electronic overload, when there are no responsible gatekeepers to make sense of high-speed information moving swiftly like a racing car without brakes on the digital superhighway. When videos go viral, they command a huge audience, generating a digital din more like barroom babble than serious debate.
The "Kony 2012" phenomenon has lessons for how we absorb and apply information transmitted electronically. The medium is not the message, but an untamed process. Thoughtful analytical engagement gets lost in a frenzy of self-indulgence in the self-absorbed social media. The digital revolution has been hyped as ushering in a utopian world of knowledge that would expand minds with facts faster than the speed of sound and light (and far faster than Superman's speeding bullet). Cyberprophets promised a future world illuminated by wizardry and magical teaching, as if consummate hand-to-eye coordination could turn John Locke's tabula rasa into a human encyclopedia.
We're beginning to discover that computers have limitations, and it's time to compute that, too. In South Korea, which leads the vanguard of digital education, education thinkers are reconsidering their idea to digitize all traditional textbooks.
"The concern about the digital textbook is that young students won't have as much time to experience real life and real things," a school administrator of a pilot digital program in elementary schools in Seoul tells The Washington Post. "They'll just see the whole world through a computer screen." Koreans, whose children famously achieve high scores in math and science, have found that 1 in 12 students between the ages of 5 and 9 is so addicted to the Internet that the child suffers depression when access to a computer is withdrawn. Similar findings for Internet addiction among schoolchildren have been cited in the United States, too.
We've only scratched the surface of the ways the nature of electronic teaching will change not only what children learn, but how they learn and how that will affect focus, concentration, motivation and memory. Another problem is the way the Internet creates opinions and obsessions while at the same time digital words are easily erased from the screen and knowledge is deleted from the mind. Fleeting feelings disconnect from deeper emotions.
"Kony 2012" exposes one way a video gone viral can do harm and cloud critical understanding. We don't yet know what will follow in its wake, but we should be paying scrupulous attention to what the electronic media is telling us. What we need to see is not necessarily what's in front of our eyes.
