does that mean 'windows 7 sleeps with the fishes?'
in a republican controlled world view, I wonder which bathrooms Bob and Clippy would be told to use?
it should die. just end. it has its long run, it faded from what it was supposed to be about and now its a facade, at best.
just end it. boycott it, interfere with them, cause them annoyance. they need to learn they don't own concepts so wide as they claim.
but please, just end this. risking world health so more advertising can be sold? just nuke us all from orbit, if we can't seem to end this absurdity.
too much BS. I hope you don't believe that. we don't (and I'm sure I speak for a lot more than myself).
what do you mean "IF he lied". he's a published known on-the-fucking-books liar. time and time again. he has more holes in his stories than swiss cheese. (this guy is quoting comey to me. wow. and he thinks that's a defense of some sort. double wow.)
I see no reason to trust apple on their word. and what they SAY - who cares. at the end of the say, they con us, many of us believe them, they have whatever agreements with full 'we will make your life a living hell' NDA they all signed (not literally, I hope) and no one is allowed to know. they make more money than god and their story is working for them. god bless them, I guess! but I don't believe one word of anything any of those guys say. I have no reason to believe that HONESTLY is in anyone's vocabulary - who is at that level, at least. simply not something they even care to practice. they say things to get things done and to get what they want. this is the personality that we put in charge, all the fucking time! don't you understand?
believe what you want, but too much is at stake to just trust talking heads who make billions of dollars on their story. life has many levels and black/white thinking is not helpful in most cases.
It's already led to one death, and can easily lead to many more.
aka, "rich people problems". or rather, "stupid people who are rich, problems."
if we had ralph nader types working for us, it would be a law that any series of skipped or delayed security patches (some threshold in a row) would mandate that you unlock bootloaders and let people do the patching themselves.
man, I wish we had people working FOR THE PEOPLE as our government. the fact that they sold all of us out and stopped caring, that's going to be part of our total demise as a nation. not the main part, but a huge part.
there were short periods in time (sorry to say, usually under D control) where our congress and senate worked to make things better for regular people. I can't remember the last time this happened, though.
too bad our lawmakers have no balls to stand up to the power of money and bribes and 'election campain money'.
we surely deserve better than this.
However, because of the amount of testing and approvals that are necessary to deploy them, it's difficult to do this on a monthly basis for all our devices.
no one disagrees that it takes manpower to do full regression tests after patches. but the thing is, for most of the time you are NOT writing the patches, just integrating it!
now, that aside, we all know that world labor is less than dirt-cheap. YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE TO AVOID GETTING THINGS DONE in this cheap-as-chips world labor market.
fuck you. you claim you are poor? double fuck you for lying about it and we all can see that, too.
how do you KNOW apple is more secure?
have you seen all the files in the source build chain, along with auditing the silicon used in all data paths?
of course not.
we have apples' WORD that its secure.
maybe its true, maybe its all a PR stunt and they cooperate with LEOs just as much as BB does.
you and I and 99.9% of the world have zero insight into this. lets be honest, shall we?
what you describe is most of the china crap that you buy today.
that does not mean that in-spec jacks and plugs are a problem. in fact, they are not!
so, complain about buying dollar buds. but don't say all jacks and plugs are bad, since that's just plain out WRONG.
its not my fault that you buy crap and complain about the format.
I have been living and working in the bay area for about 25 yrs, now. before that I spent a bunch of years in the boston area, doing the boston software thing.
when I work at some of the big names in the bay area, I see who is working there and what their skill level is. I hear the talk in meetings and see the tech discussions. I see the writings on whiteboards left from meetings. I hear hallway talk. I see the bugs from co-workers. I see the lack of qa and testing and blatant bugs in routines that have 5 lines of code. I see docs that were clearly not written by native english speakers.
the best and brightest? h1b? you HAVE to be shitting me.
big huge lie. they are the cheapest warm bodies you can buy and dominate and boss around. but they are not, and never were, best and brightest. their curve is like our curve; we have some that are stars and most are average. the ones that come over have the same bell curve. some really good stars, but for the most part, you could find the same level of quality here, already.
h1b is bullshit. we all know it.
It sounds like you don't have relevant skill sets anymore
I am not a web gui jokey, if that's what you mean. I can hold my own in C, C++, I can do ok enough in python, and probably get by as well as others in the languages they don't use regularly.
I am pretty in touch with computing in most areas. and I don't even insist on specialist jobs. there are a ton of 'can you write C code?' jobs and I'm be ok doing that. they won't give it to me; I'm too qualified, then. even when I beg for the job, I'm too overqualified and they won't give it to me.
there has been writing and teaching in my background and I'm happy enough to do that. nope, once you write C code, they won't take you as a tech writer. I'm happy to do it! I enjoy it. but the stigma stops them from taking me on. I'm not making this stuff up, either.
I can design hardware, do board bring-up, order parts and eval things. write the firmware, do the networking, solder the parts, document it, write the host based back ends. ensure the whole system works. take it to trade shows and demo it. write the docs for it, do the RMA service. in other words, I can do a whole company's worth of jobs and in some ways I act as a whole hardware/software company of size 1. I can do most anything.
and yet, here I am. unemployed and finding it very hard to break thru that 'but you are an older expensive american' boundary. its a killer, even if you're highly skilled and capable.
I will confess, I'm over 50 and that's a major 'problem' right there for silicon valley employers. they mostly don't hire us anymore and if they do, its always as contract and never fulltime. they're afraid to touch us, in effect. (when you let go a person over a certain age, they have to document a lot more and show that it wasn't due to age. other things come into play when you take on an older guy, and I realize this crap is going on, but its still a show-stopper in your goal of getting employed).
I also know that its common to say 'you are not keeping up' but that's a BS line. I am keeping up. that's not the issue and it never was.
I would personally volunteer to work as a 'secret shopper' for the government in order to weed out these bullshit companies that screw over our own people with this h1b crap.
I'm qualified for a lot of jobs and I have a ton of who's-who names on my resume. I can do the job, in more cases than not. and yet, when I apply, its the same as you - some BS excuse and you never hear from them again.
I would love to help weed out this unpatriotic selfish bastard companies and really sock it to them where it hurts, in fines and even jail time. if there is no pain, you don't change behavior.
I've had to live on unemployment for a while, live on my savings for much much longer and I'm sick and tired of this crap. I'm qualified, I want to work and yet I can't get work. all around me are h1b's and I see tons of job listings. but no one hires me. and my peers, we're all in the same boat (so I know its not personal).
I'd love to help be that secret interviewer. and when I get turned down, I should have the authority behind me (via the government) to have a full investigation done to SHOW ME the real proof of why I'm not qualified for this job.
a few rounds of that hitting the papers and - PROBLEM SOLVED FOR GOOD.
anyone else game to do this? lets start a movement!
I don't think we need a visa system, either. you think we're UNDER POPULATED here in the US? maybe in the flyover states we are, but in the tech area hubs we are overcrowded in a way that is not beneficial to anyone but the corps, who prey on us like vultures.
when we have locals who can't get or keep a job and you have 90% indians and chinese walking around in google, intel, cisco, facebook, twitter, etc - there is something really wrong, here. locals can't get work and we import people who don't really understand our culture and actively avoid being part of it, in fact.
we have no right to hand out jobs to non-citizens when citizens are going hungry, begging to be hired. yes, its true, I speak from personal experience here.
do we need more citizens? really? why would you think we need more people here? a lot of the world is overcrowded. are we supposed to be the world's solution by letting everyone come work and live here?
I was dinged on some of my previous posts when people didn't understand what my beef was. let me be clear; most countries give preference to their citizens, first. for some reason, we do not and I think that's quite unfair. a US person can not go to india and just get a job. you just can't. but indians can come here and get jobs no problem. does that sound equal, to you? why do we have to take everyone in? we can't even feed ourselves, as a whole nation. we are not in any condition to open our doors and let more and more people in. and especially not 'guest workers'. again, we don't have those rights in other countries. I can't just go to places in europe or asia and find a job, even at pay lower than locals. there are laws that stop them from hiring non-citizens. but the US does not do that, we let anyone in and give them first chance over jobs before people who spent 50+ years investing in this country.
most software and hardware jobs are not rocket science. we don't need 'the best and brightest in the world' to patch bugs and write for-loops. most of IT work is not genius-level stuff. and its clear when you walk around the hallways at places like the ones I mentioned that the people there are definitely not the brightest ones findable. they are average guys and girls, doing an average job. I can do that, too, but I can't get work because the companies have given up hiring locals and look to hire only h1b's. for even the simple software jobs, people like me can't get a company to hire them. and we all know why, too.
and in some time afterwards, when they realize that we have infrastructure that pretty much WORKS and they do not, they'll be back.
yeah, its cheap in india. when the electricity works. and when the workers actually DO real quality work.
let them go to india and china. once they realize that cost savings is not all there is, they'll be back.
perhaps they need to truly learn the value of having us, the US born workers who know this country and how to get things done, be in their employ.
I hope more companies do 100% offshoring work.
they will learn that its not all roses.
I think we need to experience more pain (damn) in order for us to get back what we all lost. and we ALL did lose; because if it did not happen to you yet, it will; and it most certainly is happening to people you know.
Beware of the Turing Tar-pit in which everything is possible but nothing of interest is easy.

Just curious.
This is a discussion on What would be considered "high mileage" on a WRX? within the New Member Hangout forums, part of the Community - Meet other Enthusiasts category; Just curious....
Just curious.
Yep just checked out that thread. Pretty impressive actually.
If any -- ANY -- modern car doesn't make 100k mi, in the 21st century, we should not be buying that marque.
We should be disappointed at failures below 150k mi, and we should expect 200k mi. Or, we should be buying something else.

I would consider a car at 120k to be high mileage. At the point where I probably wouldn't even consider purchasing one with that many on the clock.

When we first arrived and met Ousmane we knew we were in for a treat. My personality is an understatement. Ousame welcomed us to his hotel, his town and to Tuscany. When we told him that our friends (who I also recommended the hotel to) were joining us he immediately welcomed them, upgrading their room and offering to drive us to his three favourite wineries in the area. Without Ousame, we would never have found these unique wineries, each offering a different perspective on winemaking in Tuscany. We enjoyed a delicious dinner in the restaurant with wine before in our gorgeous suite. Each room has a beautiful view of the countryside. The lighting is abit dim, perfect for a romantic evening but not so good if you like to read after the romance. This hotel is a definate must in a very quiet but quaint village.

1959 Cadillac Fleetwood Limo is one rare barn find
Even though "barn finds" have long been the holy grail of the collector car world, we're amazed at some of the cars that are still sitting covered in dust waiting to be discovered.
Even though "barn finds" have long been the holy grail of the collector car world, we're amazed at some of the cars that are still sitting covered in dust waiting to be discovered.
The 1955 Cadillac Series 75 Fleetwood limousine that Elvis Presley used to transport his band to shows all over the Southern United States will go up for auction at Bonham's Classic California sale on November 12.
Fernando Aguerre discovered these fantastically carved, wooden-bodied, vintage Cadillac funeral cars while exploring an antique barn in Argentina.
Fifty years ago, the world was a very different place. Proof? This image of a '57 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham's glovebox was a General Motors PR shot. My, how times have changed. Photo Credit: GM
Welcome to Project Car Hell, where you choose your eternity by selecting the project that's the coolest... and the most hellish! Wearing a helmet in your daily driver is cool. Really!
I'm back at the motel for some internet access and maybe a few Zs while tireless Judge Lieberman works the radios at Penalty HQ, so here's your LeMons Fleetwood Update.
Welcome to Down On The Street, where we admire old vehicles found parked on the streets of the Island That Rust Forgot: Alameda, California. Today we're going to return to a couple of old friends.
Fleetwood files for Chapter 11. [WSJ]
Gus Van Sant's Drugstore Cowboy isn't a car movie per se, but you'll see some great old Detroit iron in this 1989 film (which is set in early-70s
Seattle Portland). Somehow this choice of vehicle just seems right. Thanks to this YouTuber, we can watch Matt Dillon shoot some smack in a smooth-ridin' 1965 Cadillac…
If and when I ever run out of Down On The Street cars in Alameda, all I'll need to do is head across the Bay to find another vast storehouse of old street-parked machinery. San Francisco is rough on cars, but that just means that the old veterans boast that many more character-building battle scars. Take, for example,…
Remember that '79 Cadillac Fleetwood station wagon we saw being used as a tow vehicle at the Thunderhill 24 Hours of LeMons? Well, it's for sale, and- better yet- the owner states that it "recently became world famous" due to coverage on... guess where? The wagon was originally owned by the vast Harris Ranch, and it…
An (non) independent adjudicating authority that exists in the form of only one of the guys that exists in the form of Jalopnik.com has declared that "King of the Road" by Roger Miller is the website's (Inter)national anthem.

Despite that (or, perhaps, because) our first impression of Johnny Cash was his singing "Dirty Old Egg Suckin' Dog" on the Muppet Show, we grew up to be a fan. We even watched "Walk the Line" on the plane back from the Geneva motor show, while we should have been sleeping off an ill-considered shot of morning…

No significant changes to knee angle were found. That is, the inserts were doing what they were designed to do even as the body began to fatigue.
Copyright © 2016 Rodale Inc. No reproduction, transmission or display is permitted without the written permissions of Rodale Inc.
Sometimes preventing an injury comes down to small details, like whether your shoe insert is helping keep your knee aligned throughout your run, not just at the beginning.
Fortunately, science dives into such matters. A new study in the Journal of Engineering in Medicine analyzed changes in knee movement at the start of and 30 minutes into a run on subjects wearing inserts. The scientists were curious about this because changes in the knee angle could diminish the effectiveness of the insole—whether it helped prevent the knee from turning in during the stance (or foot-on-the-ground) phase of running, a movement linked to patellofemoral pain or runner's knee.
Nine healthy runners participated and gait analyses were conducted during two 30-minute runs on separate days.

Gold Medal's "Boo-Blue" Flossugar is made from a special sugar - not too fine, not too coarse. Colors have been "vividized" so that you get a bright color, but color concentrations do not exceed the limits set down by the Food and Drug Administration's G.M.P. directives. Remember, each cotton candy serving costs you about $0.15 and retails for anywhere from $1.00 to $2.50, so profits are quick and easy!Packed in 3-1/4 lb. cartons. Simply open the box and pour into the spinner head - no messy mixing or unsanitary sugar buckets. Inventory is easy and more accurate.Serving size: 104 half ounce servings per carton.

From County extension to conservation to grain prices, we provide lots of information every day on KJAN. Here is some of that information on the web too! We hope you find it useful.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – The long, circular path taken by a prairie chicken has surprised Iowa researchers. The hen was fitted with a GPS tracker and released April 4 near Kellerton in south-central Iowa. It has logged nearly 1,200 miles since, flying south into northern Missouri and back again, as far north as Guthrie County in Iowa. The bird seems to have settled down in Union County.
Jen Vogel is a research associate at Iowa State University who has monitored Bird No. 112. Vogel says researchers expected the bird to range across perhaps 50 miles. Vogel told The Des Moines Register that researchers "really didn't expect this distance." Scientists have been trying to re-establish the birds in Iowa, where they once were plentiful. Bird No. 112 came from Nebraska.
AMES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa State University will soon begin selling tickets for its first exposition celebrating all things bacon. Tickets go on sale Friday for the school's first-ever Bacon Expo, which is scheduled for Oct. 19 in the Scheman Building Courtyard at the Iowa State Center. Officials say 1,200 tickets will be sold at $8 each.
Students are organizing the event, which will offer visitors hundreds of pounds of bacon samples as well as a bacon-eating contest. The expo is aimed at promoting the school's College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, as well as the impact of pork production in the state.
Tickets can be purchased online.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Farmers in central Iowa are finding more damage from a weekend storm that passed though Iowa with enough wind to flatten corn plants in some fields and damage trees. KCCI-TV reports farmers in Dallas County say the early Sunday morning storm brought an end to the recent heat wave but also packed strong wind.
Some corn fields in the area are completely flattened with eyewitnesses saying it was the worst crop damage from a storm they'd ever seen. Law enforcement officers reported to the National Weather Service that some trees were knocked over in Adel. No injuries were reported from the storms, which brought a 20-degree drop in high temperatures to Iowa breaking the nearly week-long record setting heat wave.
State Fire Marshal Raymond Reynolds has ordered a ban on open burning in Audubon County, effective at Noon today (Sat., Aug. 31st). No one is allowed to engage in open burning in Audubon County, except as specifically permitted by Iowa Code, or until Audubon Fire Chief John Ballou (who represents each fire department in the County), notifies the Fire Marshal that conditions have improved, and no longer threatens life or property.
The burn ban was requested by Ballou, after consulting with fire chiefs in the County, and was made due to the extremely dry nature of brush, grass and timber in the County. If fires start, they can spread rapidly and become out of control.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa officials have a positive outlook for the state's latest rabbit and squirrel hunting seasons. The state Department of Natural Resources says the outlook is based on population surveys and availability of food sources. Both seasons begin today (Saturday).
Officials say southern Iowa has the best rabbit densities heading into the fall, but hunters around the state should see better cottontail numbers when compared to last year. The cottontail season will run through Feb. 28. Officials expect above average numbers for squirrels this season. That's based on the mast production of several hardwood trees, which tends to be tied to peak squirrel populations. The squirrel season runs through January 31.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack will be in Des Moines to host a discussion about immigration reform. The former two-term Iowa governor will host what the Agriculture Department describes as a round-table discussion about the importance of immigration reform for Iowa's agriculture and rural communities. The event will be held this (Friday) morning at Iowa State University's center in downtown Des Moines.
Vilsack's participation follows the White House's release of a report, which argues that immigration reform would help ease a shortage of agricultural workers.
MISSOURI VALLEY, Iowa (AP) — DeSoto National Wildlife Refuge has scheduled the summer's final Family Fishing Day for Saturday morning. Activities will take place at the refuge's South Gate Recreation Area from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and include basic instruction and fun fishing opportunities. Youths younger than 16 can fish without licenses.
Participants may take their own equipment or use equipment and bait provided by the refuge. All children participating in the fishing clinic will receive a free T-shirt. An entrance permit is required for all vehicles. Permits may be obtained at pay stations near the entrances or at the Visitor Center.
DeSoto and Boyer Chute National Wildlife Refuges sit north of Omaha, Neb., along U.S. Highway 30 between Missouri Valley, Iowa, and along U.S. Highway 75 near Fort Calhoun, Neb.
The recent hot and dry spell has prompted the U.S. Drought Monitor to list nearly a quarter of Iowa in "severe drought." A week ago, none of the state was in that category. State Climatologist Harry Hillaker says it's clearly very dry across Iowa, but he disagrees with some of the U.S. Drought Monitor's new assessment. "Right along the Nebraska border, there was actually a fairly good rain there about a week-and-a-half ago. So, I would have left out Harrison and Pottawattamie Counties (from the severe drought category). They're still plenty dry, but certainly not as dry as the rest of that area," Hillaker says.
In far northeast Iowa, a section of Allamakee County is labeled as being in "moderate drought." Hillaker believes that area shouldn't be listed in that category just yet. Overall, the U.S. Drought Monitor calls all of Iowa at least "abnormally dry," compared with 82 percent last week. Sixty-percent of Iowa is in moderate drought and 22.4 percent is in severe drought. Hillaker says the lack of moisture and this week's extreme heat will likely hurt the development of Iowa's corn and soybeans.
"The worry with most of the corn and soybeans is it's going to decrease the yield and the corn kernels themselves won't fill very well with the lack of moisture, which is going to be worsened by the heat…same with the beans," Hillaker says. This month is on track to enter the record books as Iowa's 7th driest August. Last month was the state's 9th driest July on record.
Hillaker says the two months combined have produced the 4th lowest precipitation total in 141 years of records. "The only ones lower were all a long time ago with 1947 being the most recent one. The other two were back in the 1800s," Hillaker says. The dry spell, which started back in June, follows Iowa's wettest ever spring. Over the months of March, April, and May, Iowa received a statewide average of nearly 17.5 inches of rain. That was over two inches above the previous record, which was set in the spring of 1892.
(Radio Iowa)
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A growing season that began unusually wet and cold in the Midwest is finishing hot and dry, renewing worries of drought and its impact on crops. Experts say corn and soybeans may not have enough moisture in dry areas to develop to full weight, which could reduce this year's harvest.
The weekly Drought Monitor report released Thursday shows that lack of rain has caused drought conditions to expand in parts of Illinois, Indiana and Michigan, and most of Minnesota and Wisconsin. It also shows that abnormally dry conditions have expanded in eastern Iowa and South Dakota. Rain eased drought in portions of northern Nebraska, but much of the western half of the state remain in extreme drought.
But the drought monitor showed improvement in some states, including Kansas.
As interest increases in managing beef cows in dry lot or under roof management systems, local producers and veterinarians are asking Iowa State University for information comparing different systems. To address this interest and provide timely information and expertise, Iowa State University Extension and Outreach has planned three cow facilities and management update sessions in southern Iowa.
Joe Sellers, extension beef specialist, said the sessions will be held Wednesday, Sept. 4, in Corydon; Monday, Sept. 9, in Anita; and Monday, Sept. 16, in Oskaloosa. All sessions run from 6 to 8:30 p.m. and include a meal provided by Farm Credit Services of America, the Iowa Beef Center at Iowa State and local sponsors.
"We're bringing Iowa State faculty and staff to present a variety of informational beef cow operation topics, from feeder calf market outlook to health management concerns and recommendations," Sellers said. "Each location will cover the same topics by the same presenters."
Sellers and fellow extension beef specialist Christopher Clark will present comparisons of three cow management systems, including pros and cons of each. Sellers also will talk with attendees about whether they can justify building a facility for wintering and calving cows. Clark will offer cattle health management recommendations. Lee Schulz, Iowa State University ag economist, will present information on feeder calf market outlook and cow-calf business prospects.
All three sessions are offered at no charge, but pre-registrations must be made by the Friday prior to the session to be attended. Session dates, specific locations and preregistration information are as follows.
For more information, see the update sessions flyer on the Iowa Beef Center website at www.iowabeefcenter.org or contact Sellers at 641-203-1270 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

I totally understand. There were times when I used to come from work and was so hungry I pretty much ate everything but the wallpaper lol. What helped me was keeping track of what I ate on this app called myfitnesspal. Looking at everything I ate was really eye opening. I had to force myself to be honest when I logged in my food. I found myself not eating certain things or not as much bc I wanted to log in less food and keep under my calorie limit. Its an everyday struggle I must admit. Also I started limiting carbs, only eating whole grains, and eating less sugar. I think that helped too. Keep getting up though. Don't let the eating beat u! Tomorrows another day!

I know where you are coming from. I was doing so well then something just snapped. I think tiredness is my main trigger. I have just come out the other side of a 5 day binge (probably averaging about 4500 calories/day) and know I have gained at least 5 lbs. The guilt is all consuming, I am thinking about making a doc appointment to discuss it more. I haven't had a lengthy blow out like this before (usually only 3 days!).
Have been reading loads of overeaters anonymous stuff today and have concluded that I just need to say goodbye to some foods forever to try and avoid binging. I need to fess up to my husband about my problem and think I need to explain to my kids too, am very fearful that they might develop food problems too. I think mine stems from a trauma at 16 years old, then I suffered bulimia for the next 10 years. I don't purge anymore but think about it a lot!

I was a binge eater on a major scale. I could eat a quarter-kilo of chocolate washed down with 3 or 4 family bags of chipsticks or crisps.
The way I put a stop to 30+ years of binge eating was with roast pork! I read this tip on a message board...
One Monday morning I cooked a crackling joint and the first meal I had was 90% crispy crackling and a bit of pork meat. Then lunch was more pork (fatty) reheated with some mushrooms and double cream. Dinner more pork meat but with a mixed salad (not too high GI). Same the next day. If desperate for something sweet or a dessert I drank a bit of the double cream.
The bingeing STOPPED. The food was composed 65% fat, 30% protein and 5% carbs. So I have more or less tried to stick with that ratio, and I only binge if I start back eating carbs.
I don't think serial bingers will ever get cured by eating refined carbs.

Three things really helped me get control of my binging. 1) mindful eating 2) satisfying a craving and 3) the mantra that 'food is my friend - I just have to choose my friends wisely.'
There a zillions of articles on mindful eating but what I took away from it the most was the ability to enjoy my food and not hate myself later. Taking the time to eat it slow enough for the satisfaction triggers to kick in instead of quickly (and the guilt triggers take over so you can't stop at all).
The study about giving into cravings yielded that we as humans can only deny ourselves so long and then we lose it all together. So giving into a craving MINDFULLY (small amount, slow) has helped me avoid a 'I give up and want to eat the wallpaper' binge.
And the third (food is my friend) helped me stop putting any foods on the 'do not touch' list. But to make wise choices in the frequency and consumption, I actually associated the 'less healthy' foods with my 'less healthy friends' (you know the ones .. owe you money, return your car out of gas) and then assigned healthier foods to people I aspire to be. (My really good faithful friend is a healthy veggie soup).
And I was a binger/purger of epic proportions. Half gallon ice cream, whole family size pack of oreos all in one setting type binging.
Good luck to you. Buddy me if you want because I've been through what you're fighting.

My experience is that much binging is a sign of a deficiency in either fat or protein. Especially evening binging may be a sign that you need to eat more of your calories earlier in the day.

i think if you have this problem there is always a tendancy to slip back ( i know i do ) but the best thing i have learnt over the past 2 years is to lose the guilt .feeling guilty about anything you eat only mde me eat more ,ive been seeing a dietition for 2 years now and they have been so understanding ive used them as a counselling session and only just recently started dieting as such ( more of a healthy for life style ) i think each persons diet has to be specific to themselves and a one diet fits all mentality didnt work for me ...so look after and care for yourself thentry to think about yourself and what you like to eat and what you dont ..try to base your eating on things you like finding healthier ways to cook them and smaller quantities ....dont aim for perfection ...that is a slippery slope of doom just do what is right for you . i alsohink if you eat a litle more during the day then hopefully you wont be driven to madness by starvation...i also read somewhere this week about bread style carbs creating a craving

Loved it!
This is our 3rd trip to the area and we finally found a place that was perfect. The house was clean and stocked with everything you need. Convenient to the beach, bay and everything else. It is quiet and peaceful. For our little family of 3 and our dog we still had room. The kitchen is perfect for breakfast and the outside patio for everything else.
We already booked next year's week!
Give it a five star
Was very happy with them place had everything you needed and then some. Felt it was vert save place everyone
Around there was very nice would love to go back again. Thanks again Virginia
What a special place!
I spent a week in this charming little one bedroom beach cottage! It was warm and inviting as well as peaceful and serene! Just the right size for two! I highly recommend this bungalow. The owners are very kind and helpful as was their daughter, whose family lives directly across the sidewalk😀And their son, who lives upstairs, even parked my car in the little garage when I got in late the first evening. I highly recommend this little piece of paradise! I will return soon!
Sweet place to stay in Mission Beach!
This is a great place to stay for a beach vacation. I live in San Diego, but had to move out of my house for a week while my floors were being redone. I thought a little beach vacation would be a great use of that time and it was. One of my sons was there for two nights as well, and I had my dog with me. The property is great. It is comfortable, well furnished with everything you need, clean, and quiet. There is a patio where you can sit. You are not quite on the bay, but you can see the water from the patio, and you are a very short walk from the beach. There is a nice grocery store, as well as a zillion restaurants and bars, from fancy to take-out casual, all just a short walk away. The owners are next door and helpful without being invasive. I would stay there again in a heartbeat, and I would recommend it to my friends as well.
best price for the area !!
We had a great time at this property. We didn't need our car the whole week except for a few times for some business.It is literally steps to the bay and close to the ocean and boardwalk. Leslie and Skip were onsite to meet us and explain everything to us. They even gave us a gift of bottle of wine ! We had our privacy even though they we next door. I would recommend owners to look at the apt. before renting it out as Leslie said the housekeeping had been there but I may be picky and some areas could have been cleaner. (around stove, sink, and cupboard under the tile kitchen counter). It was very comfortable for the 2 of us.
We enjoyed using the outdoor grill and prepared several meals throughout the stay.
I would say for the money and the location, it was awesome !! I would stay there again.
last and mostly, I think a new couch would benefit the place as it was not very comfortable for 2 people to sit and relax on and was well worn.
Thanks to our hosts for a great week !!
Centrally Located for Beaches
Leslie is top rated in responsiveness.. I had several places I contacted regarding my stay, & Leslie responds quickly (which is important when trying to make decisions of your accommodations). Other vrbo owners either never answered my inquiry, or answered a few days later..
She & her husband Skip came over to inquire how the apartment was and meet us (as they live next door). They were very accommodating & friendly, and offered suggestions of places to eat when we inquired about breakfast.
This place is great for walking to both beaches (mission and pacific beach) as well as sail bay.. My husband and I walked almost everywhere.. We enjoyed World Famous restaurant patio for breakfast which has a beach view. There is La Playa Taco place down the street that we visited twice that has great ratings on tripadvisor. We also walked to the JRDN for my husband's 50th Birthday dinner & got to eat viewing a spectacular pacific beach sunset! (call ahead for reservations here & ask for the sunset patio seating). The apartment is also in short driving distance to SeaWorld & the Zoo which we visited.
The parking is shared with a neighbor, so I rented a compact car & had no problems fitting it in the space. We appreciated the parking space, as we were running a 5K for the Pacific Beach Fest race/festival, & we just walked to the start line & didn't have to fight for parking on race day.
The laundry is outside of the apartment next to garage & costs $1.25 for a wash and $1.00 for the dryer in quarters. It is also shared by tenants in the area, so if you go and it's already occupied, I just placed my basket on top & came back in about 1/2 hour to do my load.
The only con for us was that there was no air conditioner. The weather was in the 80's for our end of Sept, 1st part of OCT visit, and my husband had trouble sleeping due to the warm weather. There are ceiling fans in both living area & bedroom, and a floor fan. But fans make noise, and don't cool down a place like maybe a window unit air conditioner might cool down a room before sleeping.
The apartment was well supplied : beach towels, boogie boards, toilet paper, & all that we needed for our stay..It was appreciated that we didn't have to go shopping to stock the apartment on essentials. We appreciated having a place so close to everything & enjoyed meeting the owners as well. Thank you for the accommodations!

Bobbi Brown Chocolate/Bronze Dual-Ended Eyeliner
Bobbi Brown Chocolate/Bronze Dual-Ended Eyeliner ($24.00 for 0.02 oz.) is described as a "dark brown" and "golden chocolate." Why a brand comes out with a limited edition eyeliner formula will never make sense to me, but Bobbi Brown's done it this season with a dual-ended eyeliner that's long-wearing, pigmented, and silky smooth. One shade is designed to brighten while the other to define.Read Full Review

theBalm Nude 'tude Eyeshadow Palette
theBalm Nude 'tude Eyeshadow Palette ($36.00 for 0.382 oz.) contains twelve eyeshadows inside a slim palette with a dual-ended eyeshadow/liner brush. There are two variations, though both have the same eyeshadows inside–one is "Feeling Naughty" (which is the one pictured in this post) which features nude women with eyeshadows covering various parts, while the other is "Feeling Nice" that has no nude women at all. Each eyeshadow is about 0.032 oz.Read Full Review

Illamasqua Queen of the Night Pure Pigment
Illamasqua Queen of the Night Pure Pigment (£15.50 for 0.04 oz.) is a limited edition shade launched to celebrate the brand's first fragrance, Freak. It's described as a "blackened plum shimmer," which is an apt description! It's a dark plum with a hint of brown underlying all the plummy purple goodness wrapped in a frosted finish. It's sheerer when applied dry–the brown is more prevalent–and much more intense (and better!) when applied damp. The product binds together better with a little liquid, which yields a much more opaque, smoother color result. Bare Escentuals Romp is lighter, less blackened, and frostier–that was the only shade I felt came close, but it's not a dupe.Read Full Review

Stayed here for a night during the end of June '07 for the sole purpose of shopping at the nearby Premium Outlet Centre at Round Rock. We booked the place that same morning with the rate of $64.99 plus tax. Usually about 10 bucks cheaper if booked earlier. Check-in was smooth at a small reception desk. Entry to my room, which was a Standard Queen Bedroom was from the back of the building with an access card. Parking is free within the vicinity, with ample space.
The place looks quite shabby and old. Stairs were stained, corridors smelled.. well, musty.
Room has kitchen ammenities. Shower area is small as you can see in the pictures.
My husband and I had some skin itch that night and thought the covers were the cause of it. We used our own bath towels and toiletries.
Light sleepers may have a problem with staying here. We could hear thudding sounds from outside the room and above it.
The Premium Outlets are on the opposite side of the road, about 5-6 miles away (less than 10 mins drive).
We've stayed at one of the Extended Stay in Austin in September 2006 and the place was bigger and cleaner than this one. But.. we encounted a roach in the room then.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Acetabular Labral Tear Treatment Options
In this article
If you've been diagnosed with an acetabular labral tear, your doctor will probably start with conservative treatment. He or she may recommend using painkillers and resting the hip. However, it's unclear how well this approach works in the long run. Most of the labrum gets little to no blood flow, making natural healing difficult or even impossible.
Physical therapy may help an acetabular labral tear. You can learn to avoid putting too much pressure on the joint while building muscle strength to support the joint.
Recommended Related to First Aid
Read the Broken Hip Treatment article > >
If conservative measures don't work, your doctor may recommend arthroscopic surgery. This is a minimally invasive approach. The doctor will guide several small tools, including a camera, to the site through two or three incisions. Usually, the torn tissue is removed, but in some cases the tear is repaired.
As with any surgery, there are risks, including nerve damage. This side effect is usually temporary.
Surgery usually provides short-term improvement. But experts aren't sure how long the effects last. Surgery is less likely to be successful in people who already have other problems in the hip like arthritis or hip dysplasia. Following surgery, you will need physical therapy to rebuild strength and flexibility.
Since the success of surgery for an acetabular labral tear is by no means certain, talk over the pros and cons with your doctor. You may also want to get a second opinion.
