Carb Addiction
Wanted: Ways to make healthy improvements!
January 2009 — Am I addicted to carbs?
I think that is an easy question to answer -- YES!! And my high carb addiction lifestyle is making my diabetes so much harder to manage.
This is a big problem for me because my diet is weird. I don't eat meat. So am I a vegetarian? Well, I guess maybe, but I don't eat many veggies (does "vegetarian" mean they eat a lot of veggies?). So I must eat a lot of fruit, right? Wrong again.
It's not that I have problems with any of those things, I just don't like them. In fact, I would even call it a pretty strong dislike. It's mostly the textures that bother me, and the idea that the meat was walking around before landing on my plate. That grosses me out.
I do eat some things that go completely against my texture thing. Like whole green olives, you know the kind with the pit in the middle that you have to eat around? When I think of that, it is exactly the type of thing I shouldn't like. But yet, I like it! If I could figure out how that flip happened, I might be able to expand my menu!
I'm all about the breads, potatoes, pastas, and rice. It's all carbs! Oh yeah, don't forget ketchup (which because of the added sweeteners also has carbs). My diet is a true nightmare for someone living with diabetes.
So what options do I have? I have thought about learning all that I can on the low carb lifestyle. But that is a big change, and I don't think I'm ready to fight my carb addiction head on right now. Another option that I've considered is just ignoring the problem, but my blood sugars and A1C's bring me back to reality pretty quick. The carb addiction is clearly making it hard to manage my diabetes.
There is an option that I think I can work with. Have you ever heard of the glycemic index? I more commonly see this as the GI rating of a food item, and it is a measure of how fast that item will raise blood sugar. So the idea here is that I can work more low GI rated foods into my diet. That will satisfy my carb addiction and help keep the post meal spikes to a manageable level (in theory).
I love the whole grain types of breads, and can easily do things like whole wheat pasta. I'm pretty sure I can work with brown rice rather than white rice. But what about potatoes? That might be a problem. Maybe I can learn how to prepare them differently, or have them with something that will slow them down a bit. I'm sure there are options.
I have taken some of these steps before, and until I really make a commitment to it, I often fall back to my old ways. Part of what gives me problems is dealing with low blood sugars. To treat low blood sugars, low GI rated foods are not a good choice. But when I keep high GI rated foods around, my carb addiction kicks in and I eat them even when I'm not low.
One of the most logical answers to this problem is to treat lows only with glucose tabs, or the giant box of Smarties I have. And yes, logically that makes a whole bunch of sense. Where I fall apart with that plan is when I get sick of treating lows with those things, and look for something a little more satisfying to treat with.
How about if I just avoid lows? Right! That is about as likely as magically flipping my "I like MEAT" switch. Lows are just a part of life for most of us living with diabetes, and I need to be prepared and ready to deal with them.
I think that if I can find a handful of things that I use, strictly to treat lows, and stick to them, then I'll be able to work with this plan.
Another challenge that comes to mind is that my kids often want different foods in the house than I do. It's kind of crappy pulling this excuse out, because most of those high GI rated foods are not good for them either. But I can tell you that it is hard getting a kid to eat something they don't like. I suppose if they are hungry enough, they might go for it.
(Just don't call Family Protective Services if my kids look malnourished.)
There is a lot involved with changing eating styles like this, so I don't expect to be able to jump right in tomorrow. But I will work on it, and write more about it and my journey to eat better. It is something I've been working on for a long time with very limited or temporary success, so I'm open to ideas on how to make it stick this time!

His health insurance agency followed up on the diagnosis with a glucometer and test strips. After a year or so of trying to follow the diet plan and test his glucose levels, things appeared to be back in "normal" range, and stood there until a couple of years after my own diagnosis.

Challenge: What Does It Mean to You?
DVIDS | Aug 01 2016
QUANTICO, Va. (July 22, 2016) — What defines you? Is it your name and social security number? Is it something more deep like your personality or your favorite type of music? But are these characteristics really what make you, you?
There is the biological aspect to the makeup of people, as well as spiritual beliefs. But where do those other characteristics come from? Why are we the way we are? We are defined by past experiences - maybe a hardship you endured or something as simple as someone's words to you. I am defined, in part, by a challenge I was given three years ago.
Scene: Oscar A. Carlson High School
Location: Computer Class
I was sitting in a computer class at Oscar A. Carlson High School when a man in a funny uniform came and sat next to me.
"What are you working on?" he asked me.
"A collage of photos to express who I am."
It was the first assignment for the class. He asked me why I did not have an Eagle, Globe, and Anchor on my collage. I looked at him, puzzled, and said I would not put something on my collage if I did not know what it was. The Eagle, Globe, and Anchor was the emblem of the United States Marine Corps, he said. And that it was the symbol that every Marine, past and present, wore on their chest and had branded onto their hearts.
He asked about my future. Are you going to college? How are you going to pay for it? Do you want to live in Michigan for the rest of your life?
The more he spoke, the more interested I became. Being open-minded, I contemplated each word he said. Not once did he ask me to join the Marine Corps. Instead, he invited me to work out at the recruiting station some time. I considered it, but with my busy schedule I failed to make the time. The same man in the same uniform became a familiar face. He asked me again if I was going to work out at the recruiting station.
"I really don't have the time," I told him.
"If you don't show up this Saturday, I'm giving up on you."
Give up on me?!
Those words felt like a slap in the face – a wakeup call. They essentially set me on the path that made me who I am today.
I could not accept that he would just give up on me. That he would stop asking me questions, stop telling me I could do it. I needed that push – that challenge.
The next Saturday I walked into the recruiting station, feeling afraid. There were dozens of others there, all around my age. I knew one or two of them, the rest were unfamiliar faces.
"I'm surprised you showed up," the recruiter told me.
We waited for everyone to arrive, and then we started the physical training session. It was difficult, but nothing I could not handle. After that day I kept going back, speaking with different recruiters, asking them all questions.
Finally, the day came. The day that changed my life forever. The recruiter looked me in the eyes, and asked, "Are you ready to become a United States Marine?"
I did not hesitate.
That answer changed my life forever. I felt different. Not only physically or emotionally, but I carried a new sense of pride. I started working out more, eating healthier and studying history about the Marine Corps. I also felt more confident. I had made the decision to better my life and serve my country while many of my friends were still living at home with their parents working dead-end jobs.
Scene: Recruit Training – a.k.a. Boot Camp
Location: Parris Island, 4th Recruit Training Bn, Papa Co., Plt. 4042
Eleven months had flown by and I was saying goodbye to my family, as it was the last time I would see them for 13 weeks. The day had finally come. I was going to recruit training.
Thirteen weeks… the toughest, longest thirteen weeks of my life. The drill instructors challenged me mentally, morally and physically. It was hard being away from home. The most time I had spent away from my mother was ten days. But I knew that what I was doing - the struggles I was enduring - would make me a better person.
Sometimes I found myself questioning why I was there. It was tough getting yelled at every day and being away from my family. Why didn't I just go to college? But, the beginning was the hardest. When I was sitting on a quiet bus one second, and getting screamed at by a drill instructor the next. I wished I could sit on that bus forever. But I knew that I had to get up, I had to take that step off of the bus and on to the yellow footprints. That was where it hit me… I am going to be a United States Marine.
Scene: Present Day
Location: Quantico, Va.
If it had not been for that strange man in the funny uniform saying he was going to give up on me, I would not be where I am today. I would not be a corporal in the United States Marine Corps, and the Eagle, Globe and Anchor would be on someone else's chest, branded into someone else's heart.
I continue to face challenges every day. Being a Marine is tough, and, let's be honest, being a female Marine can have its own hardships as well. As a female in a predominantly male organization, perception goes a long way. If a female is close friends with a male Marine, her intentions may be questioned. But if she sits at her desk and doesn't speak, she can be perceived as stuck-up and rude. Sometimes it's hard to find a middle ground. Be friendly but not flirty.
Physical fitness can be another challenge for some female Marines. Maintaining our personal PT standards may not be an issue, but trying to keep up with the males can sometimes be tough. However, all of these challenges help me to push myself, run a little faster or do one more pull-up; I challenge myself to be the best me I can be.
Writing this article was a challenge for me. To open up my mind, my thoughts, and let you see me - the person I am today.
I continue to grow each day. I accept challenges, some with apprehension, and I try to challenge others. The way I see it, if something is easy, it is probably not worth doing.
If you found yourself where I did, sitting at a recruiter's desk signing a dotted line, you may question your decision. The important thing to remember is why you did it. Why did you sign the dotted line? Why did you step off that bus onto the yellow footprints? As you face challenges throughout your career, remember the reason you're here and look at the bigger picture. Times will get hard wherever you end up, but they will always blow over. You accepted this challenge for a reason.
Do not give up on yourself.

In real life, such reports have come trailing in the wake of data gathered by scientists. At the University of Minnesota, Thomas Bouchard has studied about 250 twins who were raised apart. These separations are seized upon as real-world experiments - usually accidental, but not always - in which the genes are the constant and the environment variable. The outcomes are perceived as reports on the limits of life's possibilities; of whom, in different circumstances, a person might have been.
The message from Minnesota is that at a myriad points of comparison, there are no alternatives. The uncanniness is in the details. One of a pair flew into Minneapolis from San Diego, the other from Munich. Meeting for the first time in 35 years, they shook hands at the airport wearing blue shirts with epaulettes, glasses with rectangular wire frames, and clipped moustaches. They turned out to share a habit of wrapping elastic bands round their wrists, they flushed toilets before use as well as after, and found it amusing to sneeze loudly in a silent group of people.
Anecdotes like these have captured the public imagination, and turned several pairs of reunited twins into legend. The moral of these tales is much the same as that of Cavafy's poem "The City": there is no point in going to another country, to another shore, for you will remain essentially the same person. Raised in some jungle, either of those twins would have twisted vines round their wrists instead of elastic bands.
For human essences, though, these have peculiarly inconsequential effects. Jack and Oskar may have fidgeted in the same way at their desks and shared a somewhat bumptious sense of humour, but their lives were guided by grand narratives that were anathema to each other. They were born in Trinidad in 1933; after their parents' divorce, Jack remained there with his Jewish father, while Oskar was sent to the household of his maternal grandmother, who was German, Catholic and Nazi. Little love was lost between the twins over the years, and having quirks in common was apparently not a sufficient basis for a warm relationship when they finally spent time together. While their temperaments were similar in many ways, their identities were profoundly different.
Yet the details speak louder than the bigger picture. Reflecting on the fantasy of other lives, Wright at first sounded like an author who had just succeeded in prising open the lid of imagination. With his book complete, however, his tone has flattened.
He accepts it all, from coefficients of heritability to tales of the uncanny. The subtitle, "Genes, Environment and the Mystery of Human Identity", has a denouement: it's all in the genes. Our environment is largely irrelevant except in extreme circumstances, and so the mystery of human identity evaporates.
Accepting genetic determinism seems to have a woeful effect on Wright's critical faculties, and his moral reflexes. His face is straight as he describes how one of Bouchard's colleagues, David Lykken, tried to test whether twins sent each other telepathic messages. It stays straight as he outlines Lykken's ideas about licensing parenthood. Under this modest proposal, women without licences for pregnancy would be confined to maternity homes, and their babies taken away for adoption immediately after birth.
Here and throughout the book, Wright adopts a descriptive posture. He acknowledges criticisms of twin research, such as the observation that film deals give a financial incentive to twins' self-mythologising tendencies, without really engaging with them.
This approach allows him to present the current climate of opinion as a fait accompli, and by implication an expression of fundamental truths. He links the triumph of western conservatism to the point made by twin studies: "we don't become. We are."
Behaviour genetics, with twin studies at its heart, is the truly dismal science of today. The metaphor that Wright has devised to convey its message fits only too well. "Let us say you are as alike as two different McDonald's restaurants in separate cities - the same architecture, the same inner decor, the same employee uniforms, the same menu. The environment outside may be Des Moines or Dallas, but the structure of the restaurant is the same. The experience of being in either place is hauntingly unvaried."
Though evolutionary psychology also thrives in the prevailing climate, levels of heritability are not its chief preoccupation. It prefers to talk about human universals rather than about the universal limits to human possibilities, although this choice is influenced by the desire for a positive spin.
That doesn't wash with Steven Rose, whose new book Lifelines is the polar opposite of Twins. Arguing that the nature-nurture dichotomy is sterile, he notes that we are all interactionists now. But for him this means that the interactions are too complex to resolve. Projects such as the investigation of human nature are impossible in principle.
This makes Rose's line harder than that of the most prominent scourge of determinism, Stephen Jay Gould. Last June, a two-part essay by Gould appeared in the New York Review of Books. Although it was another broadside in the long exchange of fire between Gould and some of Darwinism's most notable theorists, it made two fundamental concessions.
"Humans are animals and the mind evolved; therefore, all curious people must support the quest for an evolutionary psychology," wrote Gould, although made it clear that he considers existing evolutionary psychology to be no better than "cocktail party conversation". Yet he acknowledged its most powerful idea: that males and females have different reproductive interests because they incur different costs.
Gould is a palaeontologist, contemplating the processes of evolution; Rose is a neuroscientist, examining how living systems work. While Gould operates like a prolix Clint Eastwood, riding solo into Darwin City's main street, Rose employs the tactics of the political activist to build alliances.
Rose draws more support from radical critics of science than from evolutionary theorists. His own science emphasises the organism, and its development, rather than the gene. In this view of life, challenges from behaviour genetics and modern Darwinism simply don't figure. Twin studies, for example, are dismissed in a page or two.
Rose is not really very interested in evolution, but he is greatly offended by some of its current manifestations. Like Gould, he uses the prefix "ultra" to condemn modern Darwinism, but his more telling pejorative epithet is "vulgar".Though kin to the term "vulgar Marxism", Rose uses it in the way it is applied to the Duchess of York. Unlike Wright, Rose leaves the reader in no doubt about his personal sensibilities. Modern Darwinists and their hereditarian cousins, he feels, have deplorable taste.
Rose may be right to emphasise how much we could learn from studying organisms in the round. However deeply we explore the origins of individuals, though, that still leaves the question of the origins of species. In a review in Nature last April, Rose suggested a moratorium on books with "evolution" in the title. But the mind still evolved, as Gould has pointed out, and wanting to understand how is only human, after all. As for heritability, it is too important to be left to the kind of person who would lock up unlicensed mothers.

|PATCH: Refactor XmlRpcServer and friends for flexible threading.

The > less custom object types involved in a package, the easier I find it to > understand (especially as a new developer/user). It seems that > alternate mapping types could be just as easily supplied through > custom Map implementations. Two reasons (other than the narrower interface): 1. The current patch specifies that the HandlerMapping will throw an Exception if the handler is not found. This allows better error propagation than simply returning null. 2. It works with Java 1.1. I think calling through an XmlRpcHandlerMapping is clearer than through a generic Map, but that could just be me. >> 3. The changes above allow external management of threads > > Yay! > >> 4. Splitting out the Invoker has recently been suggested by Kevin >> Hester (my formatting): > Yup. OK, the patch is attached in "cvs diff -u" format, with extra files attached independently. Everything is in a JAR file, since I hope you all have jar ;) Commentary for the patch follows. New classes effectively already described: + XmlRpcHandlerMapping - the getHandler(String) throws Exception interface. + DefaultHandlerMapping - an implementation of HandlerMapping based on the existing XmlRpcServer implementation. + ParseFailed - A runtime exception a'la AuthenticationFailed. + Invoker - the Invoker class previously in XmlRpcServer.java, now public. + XmlRpcRequest - encapsulates an XML-RPC request. Completely new classes: + XmlRpcRequestProcessor - decode a request Produce an XmlRpcRequest from an InputStream (optional user/pass). public XmlRpcRequest processRequest(InputStream, String, String) public XmlRpcRequest processRequest(InputStream) + XmlRpcResponseProcessor - encode a response/exception Produce a byte [] from either an Object - representing a return value or an Exception - representing an error. public byte [] processException(Exception x, String encoding) public byte [] processResponse(Object outParam, String encoding) + XmlRpcWorker - decode, process and encode a request/response. Ties everything together, but only communicates with the XmlRpcServer via XmlRpcServer -> XmlRpcWorker execute() and XmlRpcWorker calls via the XmlRpcHandlerMapping. Current classes with new roles: + XmlRpcServer - handle a thread pool and a default handler mapping. Things changed a little from the patch I originally proposed. The whole thing is probably best explained by four lines in XmlRpcWorker: request = requestProcessor.processRequest(is, user, password); handler = handlerMapping.getHandler(request.getMethodName()); response = invokeHandler(handler, request); return responseProcessor.processResponse(response, requestProcessor.getEncoding()); The *Processor classes are public and have public entry points so that it is possible to build your own XmlRpcWorker-like classes, by assembly (ie. delegation) rather than by inheritance, which can be trickier. I've copied in licenses, copyright dates and redistributed authors as best I could, please don't be offended if I've made a mistake here ;) Otherwise, let me know what you think. Andrew.

Panthers' win a real pick-me-up
CHARLOTTE, N.C. As the Carolina Panthers celebrated their sixth straight win, Tom Brady and the New England Patriots were left wondering why a penalty that could have saved them on the final play was wiped out.
Cam Newton threw a 25-yard touchdown pass to Ted Ginn Jr. with 59 seconds left, and Carolina held off New England, 24-20, Monday night when officials picked up a flag in the end zone on the final play.
Newton drove the Panthers 83 yards on 13 plays for the go-ahead score, but the Patriots had a chance at an improbable comeback when Brady moved New England to the Carolina 18 and fired into the end zone.
The pass was intercepted by safety Robert Lester, but officials threw a flag after it appeared linebacker Luke Kuechly had interfered with tight end Rob Gronkowski by grabbing him. The officials quickly gathered together and waved off the flag.
"There was no explanation given to me. Officials ran off the field. I didn't see anything," Patriots coach Bill Belichick said.

Let your car be your guide! The tiny GoCar is easy to drive and park and lets you see San Francisco's main sights on your own, with navigational help from the car's GPS. You're likely to find yourself an attraction, as well, as you tool about the city in the quirky little car.
January 2017
This tour was AMAZING!!!! The Go Cars were a great and extremely fun way to see the city! Ray, the manager , at the Warf location, was really nice and extremely helpful. The GPS guided tour was informative and funny. I would recommend this tour to everyone!!!
October 2016
What a blast to zip around in these cute little cars! I have been to San Fran many times, but learn new things and saw places I would've never seen if we had not used GoCar!
September 2016
This is a fabulous way to tour the city.
September 2016
So much fun!!! Totally unique way to see popular areas of San Francisco. Someone recommended it to us and we recommended it to our friends on Facebook. Wish there were more places in the USA that offered this type of tour.
August 2016
we had great fun! if you want to do the 2 hour really not much time to stop and wander around. worked for us, but, just as a heads up!
July 2016
This was a great way to see so much of the city. Started out booking for 2 hrs and went a full 3! Such fun.
The GPS and guided talking tour was well done. I would highly recommend a GoCar Tour!
May 2016
We hired the gocar through viator and this was one of the most fantastic and fun ways to view the city. We arrived and had a safety briefing before Servio showed us how to drive. We drove around the block to ensure we were comfortable before starting our 1 hour tour. The directions are clear and concise and allowed us to travel around the city seeing the major sites of pier 39, fishermans wharf, little Italy and china town. If you are looking for a fun way to tour this is a must!
February 2016
Great time.
February 2016
It was a lot of fun.
November 2015
The crew was great getting us checked in, the ride was so much fun. It would be great if when you get off course the GPS recalculated, but it doesn't, just silence so use the map!! Will do this again!!

The CW's new offering "Life Unexpected" is surprisingly charming.
I have to confess — original programming from the CW doesn't get the benefit of the doubt from me anymore.
"Vampire Diaries" aside (which is surprisingly good), I have not been that impressed with the shows on the WB-UPN hybrid network. "Gossip Girl" lost me after season one, "One Tree Hill" never had me and the "90210" and "Melrose Place" do-overs are disappointingly bad.
"Life Unexpected" is here to save the day. Both the stars of the show and critics are calling it "old-school WB" and that is a spot-on assessment. It harkens back to the day of "Dawson's Creek," "Felicity," "Gilmore Girls" and "Popular" with sharp writing, raw emotions and compelling charcters.
"Life" begins with 15 year-old Lux, a product of the foster care system who must track down her birth parents in order to become emancipated. When the judge won't grant Lux's emancipation, her new-found parents step in.
All is not "happily ever after," though, and that's where the show gets its heart. Lux's parents are young (hence the giving her up for adoption as a baby) and don't know how to be parents to a teen. Watching Nate (Kristoffer Polaha) and Cate (Shiri Appleby) straddle the parent/older sibling line is both sweet and awkward and Britt Robertson as Lux is fantastic as she struggles with wanting independence yet finally having adults around who care about her. Also, Lux is in many ways more adult than her actual parents and Robertson manages to convey that without coming across as precocious.
The supporting cast is also great, with Nate's two goofball friends Math (Austin Basis) and Jamie (Reggie Austin) providing comic relief and Cate's significant other Ryan (Kerr Smith) providing good drama in the Ryan-Nate-Cate relationship plus another parental figure for Lux. I'm excited to watch the tension play out between Ryan and Nate, as current/past love interests of Cate plus current father-figures to Lux.
I have high hopes for "Life Unexpected" and so do stars Polaha and "Dawson's Creek" alum Kerr Smith, who goes so far as to say he's completely confident it will get picked up for a second season.
I certainly hope it does.

Chart Moves: Justin Bieber's Double Debut on Hot 100, Cher Lloyd Rises
By Gary Trust
As Ellie Goulding's "Lights" leaps 12-6 in its 27th week on the Billboard Hot 100, completing the longest ascent to the region in the chart's 54-year history for a song by a female that was not aided by crossover airplay from country to pop and adult radio. Who else shines on the Hot 100 this week?
Ellie Goulding, Usher Ascend to Hot 100's Top 10, Carly Rae Jepsen Stays On Top of Chart
-- Maroon 5: Ahead of the album's likely lofty launch on next week's Billboard 200, Overexposed preview track "One More Night" enters the Hot 100 at No. 42 and Hot Digital Songs at No. 12 with 95,000 downloads sold, according to Nielsen SoundScan. Another clear sign of the band's evolution from rock to pop -- as previous single "Payphone," at No. 2 on the Hot 100, features Wiz Khalifa: "Night" was co-written and -produced by Martin Karl "Max Martin" Sandberg, marking the band's first charted collaboration with the pop hitmaker.
-- LMFAO: The pair just keeps on partying. As the duo's former six-week Hot 100 No. 1 "Party Rock Anthem," featuring Lauren Bennett and GoonRock, logs a 66th week on the survey, the song passes Adele's "Rolling in the Deep" (65 weeks, 2011-12) for the longest residence by a former leader in the chart's 54-year history. Among all titles, only Jason Mraz's No. 6-peaking "I'm Yours" (76 weeks, 2008-09) and LeAnn Rimes' No. 2 hit "How Do I Live" (69 weeks, 1997-98) have stayed on the list longer. "Party" has even outlasted two follow-up singles: two-week No. 1 "Sexy and I Know It," which departs the chart this week after 42 frames, and the No. 49-peaking title track from the songs' parent album, "Sorry for Party Rocking."
-- Justin Bieber: As Believe storms the Billboard 200 summit with the year's largest debut sales total (374,000), the album's fifth and sixth Hot 100 entries bow with digital sales of 53,000 and 31,000, respectively. "Beauty and a Beat," featuring Nicki Minaj, opens at No. 72 and "Right Here," featuring Drake, debuts at No. 95. Following the No. 2-peaking Hot 100 hit "Boyfriend," the set's first radio single and Bieber's highest-charting Hot 100 entry, Island Def Jam goes for adds at mainstream top 40 and rhythmic radio on July 9 with the dubstep-infused "As Long As You Love Me," featuring Big Sean, July 9. Released as an album preview song, "Love" charted last week at No. 21 on the Hot 100 with 168,000 downloads sold.
-- Cher Lloyd: The fourth-place finalist on U.K. reality TV competition "The X Factor" last year (when One Direction placed third) vaults 75-51 in her second week on the Hot 100 with "Want U Back." The song also claims Greatest Gainer honors on Heatseekers Songs (6-1) and Mainstream Top 40 (27-23). It bounds 48-30 on Hot Digital Songs (56,000, up 50%).
-- Kelly Clarkson: After registering her longest-reigning Hot 100 No. 1 with former three-week leader "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" (this week at No. 21), follow-up "Dark Side" enters at No. 93. The song lifts 20-17 on Adult Top 40 and 38-34 on Mainstream Top 40.

Francis Ford Coppola and Wayne Wang, who last year announced the formation of a new company called Chrome Dragon, have launched what will be the first feature project from the collaboration.Angus MacFadyen, who played Robert the Bruce in "Braveheart," has landed the lead in the Coppola/Wang produced "Lanai-Loa" with Sherwood Hu directing. The project, which will roll July 30, will be shot on location in China. Chrome Dragon is based in Hong Kong, and "Lanai-Loa" will probably be the first non-Chinese production to shoot in China after the handover of Hong Kong to China. The film is based on an original screenplay by John Marsh and has been described as a supernatural ghost story. MacFadyen plays an American cop who is drawn into a web of murder. The actor last starred in "Warrior of Virtue" which was released through MGM, and the yet to be released indie film "Snide & Prejudice." Chrome Dragon was founded by Coppola, Wang and American Zoetrope's Tom Luddy to specialize in edgier fare with modest budgets. ICM's Tracy Brennan repped MacFadyen in the deal.

These were produced after years of lobbying by manufacturers such as Pilkington, Trafalgar House and BAT Industries. The changes were initially welcomed as a much-needed boost for beleaguered industry, hammered by three years of recession.
But gradually these companies have realised that the benefits will be far smaller than they expected. After studying the available papers, many of them have already decided that they will not use the facility of foreign income dividends promised for the Finance Bill.
In a paper that welcomed the ACT changes as a boost to London's competitiveness as a financial centre, Chris Higson and Jamie Elliott, of London Business School, have rubbed salt in the wounds of British manufacturers by pointing out that foreign-owned companies - including banks in the City - will gain more than UK manufacturers.
Mr Higson said: 'The benefit to the industrial base will be far smaller than to financial services and overseas companies.' This is because FIDS will benefit only investors who pay tax, and most UK companies are majority owned by pension funds, which are exempt.
The irony of a government handing out tax bonuses to American and Japanese banks threatening to move their European headquarters to Amsterdam or Brussels while British manufacturers such as Pilkington pay out more of their profits in tax should not be lost on the Opposition. With the notable exception of export credits, John Major's fine words on industry have been no more than that. We still wait for actions.

Did they find a razor and a straw?
I hope they find who did it. Secret Service said it was harmless?
We should be so lucky.
It was probably intended as a birthday present from one of his old hippie buddies.
Did brother Roger accidently leave something after his last visit?
Are you talking blue dress stain.
That reminds me...where is brother Roger these days?
Well lets hope it was nothing dangeroues or we'll be blamed. (We being the VRWC and FR)
Did he deny it was his stash?
So how long have you been waiting to make a Roy Tarpley reference??? ;-)
Clinton and white powder? Who in the world would send Clinton Anthrax. He's living his own hell everyday...remembering his legacy.
Running cover for Webb.
"This screams for a Mena..."
Yep and wasn't there an Arkansas state trooper (was it Russell Welch, or Welsh?) who died from weaponized anthrax after being assigned to investigate slick Willie back in the early 90's?
His birthday was more than 2 months ago. Is there anything he won't lie about?
More likely he is there to celebrate his birthday suit. Perhaps it is the excuse equivalent of a rubber band on the dorm room's outer doorknob...
What's the matter, Bill? Not getting enough camera time lately?
Gene and Nora Lum

Nets-Raptors just doesn't have the same feel as Nets-Knicks.
Ticket prices reflect as much.
As of 1 p.m. Thursday on StubHub, there were 2,032 tickets available for Saturday night's new regular-season opener at the Barclays Center, the cheapest being $49.
On TicketMaster, I found two tickets in Section 227, Row 14 for $63.20 each.
The original opener between the Nets and Knicks, scheduled for Thursday night, was postponed in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. Last week, the cheapest ticket for that game on the secondary market was $201, ESPN's Darren Rovell reported.
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg said at his Thursday news conference that he gave the NBA the go-ahead to play Saturday's game because it's a weekend, and even though mass transit remains a mess, there should be less traffic.

Even if you've never heard its name, chances are you'll still recognize "Toreador song." What may be a bit disorienting for actual opera fans is seeing a guy skateboarding to it.
As part of its ongoing "Stay True, Leave an Impression" campaign, Ballantine's recruited renowned skateboarding flatlander Kilian Martin to take his street skills to the stage.
Martin—a younger, Spanish version of the legend Rodney Mullen—adapts his own art form to offer up an acrobatic performance of Bizet's classic tale that's got to be a first. The action starts at 1:19—so stick around for the whole show.

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
A would-be robber was sent away empty handed this morning by his intended victim in Westmoreland County.
State police at the Kiski Valley barracks said a man dressed in black attempted to rob an attendant at the Export Laundromat on Kennedy Avenue in Export at about 2:10 a.m.
Police said John Orsingher, 50, was working on equipment when the man entered the building and demanded money. After being told by Mr. Orsingher that he had no money, the suspect pulled a handgun from his pocket and announced that "he was serious," police said. Mr. Orsingher replied "that he, too, was serious and that he did not have any money."
The suspect left on foot after searching the interior of the building.

Many do not know but I am an experienced intuitive tarot reader, seer and astrologer. I have an impressive rating of accuracy. My purpose in life is to help others discover their true selves, and to pass on the messages I receive from the cosmos. I am now promoting my talents on Etsy.
I am a naturally gifted medium and have had the ability to read auras since childhood. I am the Founder & High Priestess of the "Sisters of the Celestial", and have taught many pupils to read the cards and uncover the secrets of the celestial divine.
A simple tarot reading can be the key to unlocking the mysteries of the mind, and answering questions that seem otherwise elusive. Ask my mystic cards about love, life, money, career, friendships, pregnancy, dreams, past lives, family, your children's future and any other pressing matters or important decisions to be made.
Skeptics and believers alike have come to me for over ten years and have been experiencing amazing results time after time. Some have had their lives greatly impacted by the powerful positive vibrations of my cards.
Today is the day the heavens have a message for you, all you have to do is...
ask the question.
I specialize in relationship and child readings, pregnancy readings, Past life readings and seasonal tidings such as New Years, Autumn Harvest and Astrological readings.
I also design my own custom tarot spreads, which have continuously yielded astoundingly detailed & accurate results.
**For all readings, I now ask that you please include a photo of the subject(s) showing the eyes. I have found this makes it easier for me to connect to you as a reader. For pregnancy readings and ultrasound image is preferable but a belly photo will also work.
I offer custom natal birth charts, astrology compatibility and synastry reports by request.
PM me for pricing or custom listings.
It is my intent to spread light and love to all whom I cross paths with,
May we each go in harmony and peace on our unique paths.

Class is a 1983 American romantic comedy-drama film directed by Lewis John Carlino, starring Jacqueline Bisset, Rob Lowe and Cliff Robertson, and is also the film debut of Andrew McCarthy, John Cusack, Virginia Madsen, Lolita Davidovich, and Casey Siemaszko.
When Jonathan Ogner (Andrew McCarthy) first shows up to prep school, he is laughed at for wearing his school uniform. He then goes up to his dorm and meets his new roommate (Rob Lowe), who introduces himself as Squire Franklin Burroughs IV but tells Jonathan to call him "Skip." Skip then takes off his trench coat and is shown to be wearing a red bra and girls' underwear. He explains to the shocked Jonathan that it isn't what it looks like and that it's a tradition for the seniors to parade around campus wearing only girls' underwear. When Jonathan doesn't have any, Skip gives him a set that he had in his dresser. Skip and Jonathan travel out of the dorm together until they get to the final door where Skip stays behind and locks the door. The other students begin to laugh and mock Jonathan for wearing girls' underwear. Mortified, Jonathan attempts to flee the scene. After discovering that Skip has locked all the doors, Jonathan climbs a trellis that leads into his dorm where he finds Skip lying on the floor laughing hysterically.
Skip tries to tell Jonathan that it was all just a practical joke and to just laugh it off, but Jonathan is too embarrassed to see the humor. Later, during lunch time in the cafeteria, the other students again begin to taunt Jonathan as he tries to eat his meal. When Skip invites Jonathan over to his table to sit with him and his friends, Jonathan turns to reveal that he is crying from shame. Skip is now deeply remorseful for having played such a prank on Jonathan as he sees Jonathan flee the cafeteria.
When Skip returns to their room to apologize to Jonathan he finds Jonathan hanging with a rope around his neck in an apparent suicide. Skip goes to get help, but when he returns to the room where Jonathan hanged himself, Skip and the gathering crowd find not Jonathan but a mannequin with a picture of the Dean's face attached to its head. The crowd begins to laugh hysterically at Skip as the Dean says he wants to see both Skip and Jonathan in his office. As the crowd disperses, Skip hears laughter coming from the closet. Upon opening the closet door Skip finds Jonathan very much alive and laughing at Skip telling Skip that it was just a joke. Skip grudgingly accepts the prank reversal and the two become fast friends. After becoming friends the two share secrets and Jonathan admits to Skip that he cheated on the SAT exam.
After several failed attempts to find Jonathan a date, Skip decides that it is his sworn duty to help his friend have a successful sexual encounter fast for all their sakes. Skip decides to send Jonathan to Chicago to meet a girl and gain sexual experience before both of their reputations are ruined. Jonathan is picked up by Ellen, a beautiful older woman, and has an affair with her. Jonathan begins to fall in love with Ellen even though the older woman knows it to be just a fling between them. Jonathan lies and claims to be a Ph.D. student. When Jonathan proclaims his love to Ellen during one of their sessions, Ellen begins to have second thoughts about continuing the relationship. Her decision is finalized when she discovers that Jonathan is not only much younger than he had originally claimed to be, but he also attends the same school that her own son attends.
Over Christmas break, Skip invites Jonathan to spend Christmas with him and his family at the Burroughs estate. It is here that Jonathan discovers that Ellen is Skip's mother and is married. Jonathan tries to end the affair, but Skip's mother contacts Jonathan several times. Eventually Jonathan agrees to meet Ellen to talk. He lies to Skip, claiming to need time alone. When Jonathan and Ellen meet, they end up in bed again. In an attempt to cheer up his friend, Skip and friends go to Jonathan's hotel room. There they discover Jonathan in bed with Skip's mother. Skip is very upset by this and is very cold toward Jonathan. However, he does not turn John in during an investigation into cheating on the SAT. At the end of the movie, Skip and Jonathan have a violent fist fight, but make up in the last scene.

The female lead was offered to Lesley Ann Warren who turned it down due to the nudity involved. Jacqueline Bisset played the role instead.[1]
Bisset was disappointed that scenes involving her characters' backstory were cut. These included a scene at the end where her son visited her in a mental hospital. "When you're in a comedy," Bisset said, "It's always difficult to develop a character because they always cut for comedy, the comic effect. I lost a couple of scenes that would have explained my character better. She was more interesting in the original script. Why does she do what she does? She's a very unhappy woman. She doesn't have any relationship at home. Cliff tells her in the bedroom that she's a Burrows and as long as she's a Burrows she must behave. That's not much of a relationship to have with your husband. So she's a bit off balance, greatly in need of a childlike component in her life. She's been completely buckled down by Cliff. There's absolutely no fantasy aspect to her life. She's condemned to being an adult... The director sees it much more as a rites-of-passage film."[2]
Andrew McCarthy was a New York University drama student prior to casting. He attended an open call and wound up with the lead.[3]
Variety said "Class is anything but classy....[It] seems something like an unofficial remake of one of Bisset's first Hollywood efforts, the 1969 The First Time.[4] Vincent Canby wrote "The movie can't make up its mind whether it's a lighthearted comedy, set in what appears to be a posh New England-style prep school just outside Chicago, or a romantic drama about a teen-age boy who has a torrid affair with his roommate's mother. Either way it's pretty awful."[5] Roger Ebert gave the film 2 out of 4 stars and said it was a "prep-school retread of The Graduate that knows some of its scenes are funny and some are serious, but never figures out quite how they should go together"; The film is "entertaining when it's not dealing with its real subject matter, painful when it is, and agonizing when it confuses rigid mortification with humor."[6]
Virginia Madsen does not like to talk about her experience making the movie, stating in a 2013 interview, "Those guys were assholes. They were really shitty to me. It was bad. Bad memories."[7]

Drip, drip, drip...
I've been listening to that for a while now. It's getting on my nerves, but there's nothing I can really do about it. May as well try and ignore it, try and get some sleep.
Drip, drip, drip...
I Just have to ignore it...
Drip, drip, drip...
Ignore it and it will go away...
"Aw hell!" I groan finally, eyes snapping open. I take in the famliar sight of my bedroom in the dark. I glance at my alarm clock, the luminous clock hands tell me it's about 2 a.m. I curse quietly and roll out of bed onto the floor, landing on my feet like a cat. I creep past my laptop, which is on sleep mode, and down the stairs to the kitchen. There's no dripping taps in here, which I'd have thought was the cause of my sleeplessness. Now I have to go search for it properly. Damn.
I climb the stairs to the bathroom, and again notice nothing amiss. Scowling, I go back to bed, swearing to myself that I will just forget it and go to sleep. It doesn't happen.
I toss and turn, bury my head under the pillow and it just keeps getting louder and louder. I sit up and turn my lamp on, furious.
Then I notice it.
The blood.
Dripping down the wall, pooling on the floor, it's everywhere, and it's fresh. Now I hear the screaming; I don't want to know where it's coming from, but it too keeps getting louder and louder. It's not a proper scream either, it's not normal at all, it echoes and bounces off the walls, new inhuman wails adding to the ones already attacking my ears, creating a huge shrieking mess of sound. I cover my ears, begging it to stop. Of course, then I start to hear other things, like manical laughter and thuds and yells. I don't think I can take anymore.
Then it stops. Then it's silent. I look down and see blood on my hands, blood on my clothes. A huge, crudely carved gash in my chest.
Drip, drip, drip...

She will not be ousting Lucie de la Falaise, her fellow teeny supermodel, who has been the face of Yves Saint Laurent's Paris fragrance since she was 16. But Opium is the big one. At its launch in 1977, the name alone was deemed so dangerous that the perfume was banned from New South Wales. The French crooner Charles Aznavour cut his Antipodean tour in protest. The first face for the fragrance was larger-than- life glamour girl Jerry Hall.
YSL gave Linda Evangelista this big campaign, and the big boost, so long ago she still had long hair. But only the print advertisement starring Ms Evangelista was shown outside France. The television commerical in which she went in search of a heady high in what looked like a real Opium den was deemed too risque to be shown elsewhere.
Three years ago the Spanish model Nastasia was the Opium girl. She looked just like Ingrid Bergman, which pleased the director David Lynch, who was then dating Bergman's daughter, Isabella Rossellini (who also looks just like Ingrid Bergman but, under contract as the face of competitor, Lancome, was unable to oblige.)
Ms Moss's print campaign has already been shot and the television commerical, to be directed by the Japanese director Satoshi, will be filmed at the end of the month. It is due to reach our screens this summer.

I was wondering if you (or someone else out there) wouldn't mind giving me a brief review of the aril terminology - aril, arilbred, OGB, OGB+, etc... I've seen it before, but haven't retained it. Do you know which type is Esther?
It's easy. Arils are the species and hybrids of pure aril species. these species are mostly from the middle east up to central Asia. They are generally adapted to dry areas. some to hot, dry areas.
Arilbreds are hybrids between the eupogons (the TBs, SDBs, and MDBs, and even MTBs) and the aril iris.
OGB are oncogelia breds (oncogelias are hybrids of pure arils, but including both oncos and regelias in their pedigree). OGB- means less than half aril. OGB+ means more than half aril.
Ester the Queen is half and half, and one of the most fertile with other half and halfs, arils, and eupogons.

A Guide to Growing Up
Full Product Description
A Guide to Growing Up aims to remove the embarrassment that can surround issues around our sexuality and instead shines God's light onto them. It explains how amazing our bodies are, especially with regard to our sexual organs and it places a very high value on sex, talking about how wonderful it is and why it is God's ideal for sex to be enjoyed within a loving marriage. The book is full of cutting-edge illustrations to grab the attention and includes interviews with young people and detailed chapters on some of the hot topics, including masturbation and same-sex attraction. This is an invaluable tool to support parents in talking to their children about these issues, as well as a fantastic guide for young people that they can refer to throughout their adolescence.
A Guide to Growing Up by Sarah Coralie Smith was published by Lion Hudson Plc in April 2017. The ISBN for A Guide to Growing Up is 9780857217967.
