I'm very out of shape and I wear a size 4/6. I have an inner tube of chub around my waist, not huge, but it doesn't look great.
I feel my best when I'm 110-120, but if I were muscular I know I could put on 10 or more lbs and look my best.
When you don't have muscle mass you have to drop lots of weight to look thin, but if you have good muscle mass you will weigh more but look smaller. It's the fluffy effect. It takes more room to carry a lb of fluff than a lb of muscle.
I just am not a big exerciser.
I wanted to comment, though, on people saying you don't need to lose any more. Back in 2006, I lost almost 70 pounds (from a little over 200 to 140). I noticed an interesting phenomenon with my peers and family. After I'd lost about 20 pounds, people started noticing I had lost weight and would comment on it ALL THE TIME. It seemed like every time I would see someone I hadn't seen in a while, they would say, "Wow, you've lost so much weight".
Then, when I started to get closer to my goal, there was a switch. People started saying, "Oh, you don't need to lose anymore. You're starting to look too thin. Are you sure this is healthy?" Etc. It drove me insane. Believe me, at a size 8, I was NOT too thin. Not even close. And, on the charts, I was on the high end of a healthy range. I think part of it was that people were just not used to seeing me that size, and it skewed thier vision of me. Though in most cases, I think people were trying to be supportive, sometimes I just wished they would find something better to talk to me about than my weight. It was like that was the only thing that people saw.
I am 5 8' and 175 and wear a 14 but that is a bit baggy on me and my 12's are too small...But when i was 149 i was a 10, i tend to carry my weight in hips/butt/thighs and since ds, in my stomach. Even if i got to 140 i think i would be **** a 10 maybe an 8, as my frame is larger and losing 10lbs may not necesarily put me in a smaller size...
I think it is a great weight for me. I am not too skinny and I can maintain this weight. My goal is about 135, which will be more work to stay at. Good luck.
I have really tried to let other peoples' crap go in this department. My sister (who called me fat after dd was born) now tells me not to lose any more weight. Of course, now she is 195 lbs, as opposed to the 135 she weighed after I gave birth. People's own issues really come out when you talk about weight.
I'm just under 5' 5" and was 140 for a long time. I mostly wore size 12.
so, it really all depends.
if you're using BMI to determine "overweight" then you're using something that is a faulty measure. my husband lifts weights. his body fat percentage is low (i think 8-10% tops), and he is considered "obese" using BMI. he is obviously *not* obese.
it's worth nothing this can be the case, ok?
i'm 5 ft 7 and 130-5. i could loose 10 lbs or not, i do well between these two weights. my sister, the same height, is very healthy between 145 and 155. so, we're different. same height, different body types, so different 'healthy' weights. when my sister is in a complete fitness mode, she's a buff 155-160 (muscle in her legs gets big, increases her weight although she's smaller inches-wise). when i'm doing my hard core athletic thing, i'm 120. right now, i'm in a not hard core working out phase. just a little yoga (30 mins a day) and hiking/walking.
everyone is different.
I'm 5'4"
140 is my ideal "skinniest" weight, and I wear a size 6-8 there. I've lost 30-40 lbs, but I still have 20-40 to go. I look and feel good at 160, but I look great (but still with some "meat on my bones") at 140
So, for me 140 is my ultimate goal, but in my heart of hearts, I know 160 is the perfect weight for me.
Hi, I'm TJ! | NMY Grad | Mama to DD 5/13
Mom to John (age 11), James (age 9) & Katherine (age 5)
Right now I'm at 130-135lbs and wear mostly size 8 pants and medium shirts (I'm nursing though, so I'm a 36F at the moment )
as others have said, it's about body type. some bodies would be "overweight" at that height/weight, and other bodies are exactly right at that height/weight.
so, it really all depends.
if you're using BMI to determine "overweight" then you're using something that is a faulty measure. my husband lifts weights. his body fat percentage is low (i think 8-10% tops), and he is considered "obese" using BMI. he is obviously *not* obese.

It really really really depends on body type!
I don't have a clue why someone who is the same size and weight as me would wear a much smaller size. I don't like tight clothes, so maybe that is part of it. I like to be comfortable.
When I'm 140, I'm in a size 10, M for tops.
It's definitely a frame and body type issue. I have pretty wide shoulders, wide hips, am busty with a-- let's just call it-- *generous* butt. Lower than 140 is almost impossible for me to maintain.
Once this baby is born I'm kicking into high-gear to get back in shape. I'm looking forward to wearing my size 10 pants again!

Sizes are very tricky. I am 5'5 and 127, and usually wear a size 8, and a medium in shirts. I lost 20 pounds 2 years ago and have kept it off--but when I was heavier (148) I wore a size 12 and L in shirts.
I don't have a clue why someone who is the same size and weight as me would wear a much smaller size. I don't like tight clothes, so maybe that is part of it. I like to be comfortable.
I used to be very thin as a teenager - about 105 lbs at 5'6" - and I remember having to size up a pair of shorts to a size 9 because none of the smaller ones would button.
Honestly, I think so much depends upon your waist size but, strictly going by the numbers, your current height and weight do sound on the heavy side.
One thing I have noticed is that when you start loosing weight, you'll find people for some reason - whether it be jealousy/envy or being unable to adjust to the "new you" - will encourage you to stop. They'll say you're getting too skinny, you're just fine the way you are etc.... Don't listen to them. Listen to yourself, measure yourself and honestly assess where you are.
Also wanted to mention that it can be difficult for family & friends when you are losing such a large amt. of weight. They may feel like you are losing "too much" because they are used to seeing you heavy...you need to do what is right for you.
DH says it's a wonder I can walk upright and not topple over all the time
i'm a size 4 and 5"4' and 143 lbs i can sometimes squezz into a size 2 if the sizez run a bit big or a 6 if the run small. Good work! Congrat! if you dont feel comfy losing the weight then dont im sure you look beautiful as it is.
Everyone has already said it, but congrats! Enjoy the new you, and don't let anyone's comments get you down. You should be where YOU are happy and healthy. I've been told I should lose more, I've been told I was too skinny. bah.
I am 5'2'' and 130-135 lbs at any given time. I still have this mental "120" in my head but I haven't been there since 21 and I'm very happy with my size and shape right now. I am typically a size 4, xs tops, s bottoms. I am a real pear with big hips for my frame. Like I almost need a little girls size Large top but I'm all mama in the hips.
I wouldn't mind toning up even more in my thighs and belly, but that has much more to do with composition than weight. I work out 1000-1400 minutes a month (I only know the amount because of the thread here on Mothering. lol) I would imagine that if you work on muscle gains you could weigh more at your goal body than if you are at a higher fat percentage. If you don't build muscle, I would think 140 is a good weight. With more muscle you could probably be 150-160, but like everyone has said, it is such a personal thing!
Congrats again, enjoy vegas, and love your body. <3

Thanks for posting this. I had never heard this before, but it makes sense. Also makes me feel a lot better. My BMI puts me just past the limit of "normal" into "overweight" but my waist size is about an inch smaller than half my height. I do think I am a bit bigger boned and somewhat muscular. I do work out 6 days a week and I think I am fairly "fit".

My bmi is the very top end of normal, barely under the overweight limit. At my leanest and meanest I was still in the upper half of the bmi normal range. I have a jiggly set of thighs still, and loose skin in my tummy, but other than that, I am pretty well defined with good muscle mass. I'm comfortable in a proper fitting bikini.
My waist measurement is at least 4 inches, sometimes 5 inches less than half my height. So pfffbhththt on bmi. I can't really even think of a time where it is the most useful diagnostic tool for healthy weight. bah

Over the past year or so I have went down from 230 to 140. My original goal was to be 132 (at 5'5" that would give me a BMI of 22.0). Right now I fluctuate between 138 and 140 depending on my calories, exercise, etc. I buy my pants at New York and Co. and I am a size 4 in pants and an XS/S in the tops.
I am wondering the same thing as you - do I just stop here or go down to my goal weight? I think if I get down to my goal I will be a size 2 (because I can almost fit in some of them). I am also having the same reaction from family members telling me that I am at a good weight where I am now.
I agree with what someone else responded back though - keep eating right and exercising and eventually your weight will plateau. At least that's what I'm hoping will happen for me. Let me know how everything is going!
Another example of pant size meaning nothing: My mom and I are the same height of 5'6", however she is comfortable at 120 lbs and she wears around a size 8-10, but I am most comfortable around 135 lbs and I wear a size 4-6. She's never been athletic and I've been fairly athletic my whole life, so I have a lot more muscle mass and I can be a heavier weight and a smaller size.
According to BMI scales, when I was a college swimmer and my heaviest weight (145-150) from weight lifting, I was borderline overweight, but in the best shape of my life. It's definitely not a good scale for health.
Also I wanted to say good job on the weight loss, it's not always easy!!

India offered to give nuclear technology to Pakistan: WikiLeaks
WikiLeaks has revealed that India had offered to share nuclear technology with Pakistan after the 1974 Pokhran nuclear test.
Zeenews Bureau
New Delhi: WikiLeaks has revealed that India had offered to share nuclear technology with Pakistan after the 1974 Pokhran nuclear test.
According to WikiLeaks and as reported by a leading English daily, the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi informed Parliament after the July 22 tests that she had apprised her Pakistani counterpart Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto of New Delhi's willingness to share the relevant technology.
A US Embassy cable quoted Gandhi as saying, "I have explained in my letter to Prime Minister Bhutto the peaceful nature and the economic purposes of this experiment and have also stated that India is willing to share her nuclear technology with Pakistan in the same way she is willing to share it with other countries, provided proper conditions for understanding and trust are created. I once again repeat this assurance."
Gandhi had made the offer as Pakistan was unwilling to buy the Indian assurance that the nuke test was not aimed at anybody.
But, India could not transfer the technology as the country was slapped with international sanctions that included ban on technology transfer.
In reaction to this, Gandhi had said: "It was emphasized that activities in the field of peaceful nuclear explosion are essentially research and development programmes. Against this background, the government of India fails to understand why India is being criticized on the ground that the technology necessary for the peaceful nuclear explosion is no different from that necessary for weapons programme. No technology is evil in itself: it is the use that nations make of technology which determines its character. India does not accept the principle of apartheid in any matter and technology is no exception."

Yes, it's true. AbeBooks has revealed that it sold an Italian ornithology on birds from 1765 for an astonishing $191,000 in 2015. Published in Florence, the set — commissioned by the Grand Duchess of Tuscany — contained more than 600 hand-colored engraved plates of birds. The book seller noted that the set's "fine condition enhanced its value along with the fact that it is a scarce book – only 10 complete copies have been offered at auction in the past 40 years."
Another book fetching a large sum in 2015: A first edition of Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. (Inscribed by Dahl with the words "For Jane and Alex with much love Roald Dahl October 1964," the set sold for $25,000.) Apparently Knopf only published 10,000 copies of the book in 1964. Go figure! AbeBooks notes: "This copy is by far the most expensive Roald Dahl book to sell via AbeBooks and probably the most expensive Dahl book to ever be sold." A golden ticket indeed.
Meanwhile a Russian book, from 1856, on the development of geometry sold for $34,245 and a first-edition set of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, signed by J.R.R. Tolkien was purchased for nearly $20,000.
Forget about finding the Rembrandt in the basement, lovies. Look for the Dahl in grandma's garage!

Moony, inlet-warm, seabathed, I watch you sleep
the scrubbed, sheenless wood of the dressing-table
cluttered with our brushes, books, vials in the moonlight–
or a salt-mist orchard, lying at your side
watching red sunset through the screen door of the cabin,
G minor Mozart of the tape-recorder,
falling asleep to the music of the sea…
It's been a long time since I've posted here on English Muse.
It's so nice to be back….

Joan Didion was one of 24 leading figures in American arts and culture who gathered on Wednesday in East Room of the White House, where President Obama made the annual presentation of the National Medals of Art and the National Humanities Medals. She looked so frail as she made her way, with a special escort, to the stage. Obama reached out to try to keep her steady.
He told the crowd in his opening remarks: "Somebody like Joan Didion, who, rightly, has earned distinction as one of most celebrated American writers of her generation. I'm surprised she hasn't already gotten this award. But in her early years, she was in school only sporadically, basically taught herself how to read while she and her family followed her Army officer father around the country. She obviously learned quickly. She won a contest for Vogue in college; gave up her dream of being an oceanographer, writing became her world. And today, decades into her career, she remains one of our sharpest and most respected observers of American politics and culture."
I'm sure Didion would have made a fine oceanographer, if that's what she had decided to do. But the fact that she became a writer instead gives us a deeper understanding of what it means to live a full life, complete with hurt and loss, in this world.

Paterson spends her weekends "fossicking" for treasures at flea markets and antique stores.
She tells Vogue Living: "I always want my home to be better on Monday than it is on Friday because of something new I've found."
"I always want to pare things back so that each object has its own space
— to decorate with the lightest touch."
Paterson says: "I love the ghosts of past owners."
When she renovated her house, she kept a saying on a wall:
"White is not the mere absence of colour."

Christmas comes early this year. And if you are good girls and boys, you will now open a great present by clicking this link to buy the CD from Amazon, or this link for the MP3 download.
What are you getting? "Nomad," 40 minutes of music by an African guitarist who's called Bombino. It's protein-rich: great for parties (you will come to be bored by friends asking "What is that?"), a lifesaver on rainy mornings when you don't want to get out of bed, a good candidate for serious listening, a caffeine hit for long sessions of work when your friends are getting buzzed on Adderall, and, so far from least, an essential ingredient for ecstatic couplings at midnight.
That's a lot of goodness: cheaper than Starbucks, not addictive like Adderall, and even more useful for a marriage than counseling with Esther Perel.
What's so great? First the writing: it's all hooks. Hooks upon hooks until you are locked in a groove. Then it's Omara "Bombino" Moctar's guitar. It slithers. It buzzes. It's round like Knopfler, spacy like Hendrix, concise like Ali Farka Toure. And then the drums. There are a lot of them, and they range from handclaps to crisp little circles. And, finally, great sound. "Nomad" was produced by Dan Auerbach, who is half of The Black Keys, a band that proves again and again that when you're mega-talented, a guitarist and a drummer are all you need.
Hearing is believing. Crank the volume. See if this doesn't haul you out of your chair:
That's not a one-off. This song also makes me nuts:
The back story: Omara Moctar was born in 1980. He's a Tuareg. (Volkswagen named its off-road SUV after this tribe of desert nomads in Niger.) The Tuareg, who are descended from the Berbers of North Africa, are fiercely independent. Once they fought against colonialism. Now, although they're Muslims, they resist Islamic fundamentalism. ("These invaders from Mali are not welcome in any of our lands," Moctar says. "We reject their philosophies and their idea of Islam.")
In the 1990s, civil war wracked Niger. The Tuaregs were declared enemies of the state. Moctar and his family fled to Algeria. Relatives brought guitars, and Moctar learned to play. Fighting subsided. Moctar's family returned to Niger. But in 2007, when he'd launched a band, there was a second Taureg rebellion and a harsher government response. Two of Moctar's musicians were killed; Moctar fled to Burkina Faso.
On his first, under-the-radar America tour, Moctar met Dan Auerbach. They had no common language, but a short session of music made it clear they could collaborate.
Auerbach: "He would triple his guitar leads, and he'd do it note-for-note, first take. It sounds massive. His guitar's running through fuzz pedals, with double drummers playing at the same time — lots of percussion."
Translation: This is desert music, but it's been processed in a Nashville studio. Not to trick it up, but to make it stronger. And it is. There are no English lyrics; because they're in a language you don't speak, the words have power only as sounds. Which I prefer.
Maybe more music will come along that delivers both novelty and creativity. I'm not holding my breath. I see "Nomad" as I once saw SMOD –— as the most exciting World music of the year.
At some point — like in 2015 — I expect Bombino to get a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist. Well, he won't be new to you. Or to all the people you're going to give this to when it's really Christmas.

Jesse Kornbluth, of HeadButler.com, serving you excellent tea.
Alice Waters drinks Pu-erh tea. And swears by it. "My cholesterol went down 100 points since I started drinking this," she says. "It was extreme.
That's not a small endorsement. I ordered some. And opened it while we were having dinner with a friend from Texas.
It is rude to ask Texans how many acres they own or how many head of cattle are grazing there. Anyway, they don't own acres. They own "sections." My friend shared that her family owned … many.
My wife also has a rural childhood. She grew up on a game farm in Minnesota. Raised pigs. Prize pigs. Has a row of 4-H Club purple ribbons to prove it.
Both women took one look at the brick of tea and said the same thing.
"Cow pie."
Just so. This tea has been fermented, aged, then pressed into an inch-thick circle. It has an earthy aroma. But not unpleasantly so.
It turns out that lower cholesterol isn't everything – it might be the smallest health claim for this tea. Pu-erh is said to promote weight loss (the health claim is that it dissolves fat cells) lower blood pressure, and calm the nerves.
"A Chinese study performed on rats and published in 2009 showed lowering of LDL ("bad") cholesterol and triglyceride levels after the animals were fed a pu-erh tea extract, along with an increase in HDL ("good" cholesterol)," writes Andrew Weil. "We know that tea, in general, is protective against heart disease and cancer. It's likely that pu-erh tea has similar effects."
An Amazon reviewer finds another benefit: "I needed it for is the Theanine that is in this tea, I have an autoimmune disease that causes inner tremors and I take L-theanine to calm me down but this tea is doing that in a more natural way.
Pu-erh is one of the higher grades of tea grown in Yunnan province. A round pound costs $16.95 at Amazon, which may sound dear but is actually a terrific bargain. You break off the leaves you need, crumble them into a pot, douse them in very hot water for 30 seconds, pour off that first steep, and then brew your tea. Not for long. Three minutes will more than suffice; I prefer a minute. Bonus: you can use the leaves for as many as eight steeps. [In a Zojirushi Stainless Steel Vacuum Insulated Mug, you have a day's supply.]
Good to the last drop? Astonishingly good. Pu-erh is never bitter. Milk and sweetener are superfluous — this is a rich brew that delivers an unusually modest caffeine hit along with a welcome hint of natural sweetness. Some Pu-erh fans say the last drop is actually the best, that the last infusions taste richer and sweeter than the first. [To order Pu-erh tea from Amazon, click here.]
Pu-erh has been around forever — in China. Here it's just starting to be the new cool thing. Six months from now I expect Jimmy Fallon to be making cowpie jokes. Millions will laugh. Thousands will start to drink it. The last laugh? Yours.

Jesse Kornbluth, of HeadButler.com, here to praise one of his favorite writers.
"A major literary event."
That's the phrase for any novel by James Salter, and especially "All That Is." First, because Salter is known in the trade as a "writer's writer" — underappreciated by the public but revered by those in the know. Then, because this is his first full-length novel since 1979. And, not least, because he is now 87 and by any sane measure it's likely that "All That Is" will be all there is — his final book.
Regular readers of this site know that I have been an admirer of Salter's work ever since I read A Sport and a Pastime and Light Years as a pup, and that I have had the privilege of knowing Salter for three decades. The length of our friendship and his four score and seven years seem like fiction; for me, my friends are always the age they were when I met them. So I have trouble with the valedictory tone that's more or less expected in any assessment of "All That Is." In my head, I see Salter at his desk, surrounded by notebooks, turning words this way and that, struggling to write not his final book but his best one.
But "All That Is" does invite us to read it as a summing up. It has that heft: 300 pages, for Salter a thick book indeed. In form, the novel is surprisingly traditional. Salter, known for books that are short and terse because his sentences seem more carved than written, follows Philip Bowman, a smart, sensitive World War II vet who stumbles into the book business and has a long, almost distinguished career as an editor. [To buy the book from Amazon, click here. For the Kindle edition, click here.]
Publishing, even in New York, does not lend itself to heroics; Bowman "liked to read with the silence and the golden color of the whiskey as his companions. He liked food, people, talk, but reading was an inexhaustible pleasure." I'm down with that, but I live in New York, I've known that man. His work and joy are interior; a book about such a man requires a second engine.
That engine is Bowman's parallel career with women. When we meet him, Bowman is not exactly surging with testosterone. His first marriage — his only marriage — is to the wrong woman. How could it be otherwise? "He loved her for not only what she was but what she might be, the idea that she might be otherwise did not occur to him or did not matter. Why would it occur? When you love you see a future according to your dreams." That's an interesting idea. It is not, however, an idea that leads to high drama.
That marriage is followed by a promising affair with a woman in London: "It seemed his manhood had suddenly caught up with him, as if it had been waiting somewhere in the wings." No kidding:
In the bedroom she stepped from her skirt. She stood for a moment, hugging herself, and then slipped off the rest. The glory of her. England stood before him, naked in the darkness. She had been, in fact, lonely, she was ready to be loved. He was never more sure of his knowledge. He kissed her bare shoulders….
And this:
He slipped the dress straps from her shoulders. You could never have anyone like this. His old, fettered life was behind him, it had been transformed as if by some revelation. They made love as if it were a violent crime…
And this:
Her blond hair, her lean style. He saw himself now to be another kind of man, the kind he had hoped, fully a man, used to the wonder. Enid smoked cigarettes, she did it only now and again, and breathed out the rich fragrance slowly. The light in the Ritz made her beautiful. The sound of her high heels. There is no other; there will never be another.
But that great love fades.
Who's next? A woman he meets in a cab. If you read the excerpt of Bowman's meeting with this woman, you may hope she'll be his great love. I won't spoil what follows with her and then with her daughter, but by now I cared enough about Bowman to despair for him. I saw his end as the fate of Viri, in "Light Years."
Not so. Again, no spoilers, but "All There Is" ends with water. And not the dark water of "Light Years." Here there is the pulse of life, the province of hope. It is just magnificent. Salter, who has the gift of writing sentences that exactly reproduce what we feel and think in the moment we feel and think it, moves beyond that incomparable skill and does something even more difficult: He gives us his heart.
For all that, if you have never read Salter, don't start with this book. Work up to it. Read "A Sport and a Pastime." Read "Light Years." Read Burning the Days, his memoir, which tells the story of a West Point graduate and Air Force fighter pilot (more than 100 missions in Korea) and his transformation into a writer. Read the stories in Dusk and Last Night. And only then…
Sounds like a project? Oh no. Dear friend, I have just handed you a gift beyond price.

Hello, English Musers!
It's Hannah B. again from Secrets of a Belle. This past weekend, while the rain pitter-pattered on the window, I spent some time curled up on the couch lost in a new favorite book. This got me to thinking. Where do you other people read? Do you curl up on the couch too? Do you read in bed before you drift off to sleep? Personally, my dream is to eventually have a room devoted just to reading… you know, like the Duke!
But it doesn't have to be that fancy! After all, in the words of Billy Baldwin…
Here are some other reading spaces I really dig.
More excellent reading nooks can be found on Pinterest.
What about you? Where do you do your best reading?
Hannah B. lives in East Tennessee where she writes Secrets of a Belle, a blog about the art of living a more beautiful life. You can follow Hannah B. on twitter at @HB_Belle and on Facebook.

Root Vegetable Mash With Caramelized Onions
Recipe by justcallmetoni
Needed to use some parsnips when I came upon this dish. Liked it enough that I thought it was worth sharing. You can treat this as a hearty side dish or a satisfying vegetarian meal.
Top Review by ladypit
This was a truly fabulous dinner. Even though I would do a few things a tad differently next time, this one is still really worthy of all five stars. I did everything as described, using a 1/2 tsp. splenda brown and using a 15.5 oz can of chickpeas. I actually used about three parsnips, but mine were tiny, and I used two smallish sweet onions. Next time I would use more onion; probably the equivalent of two large vidalias. The onions make this dish. Their flavor, along with the wonderfully flavored veggie mash, is awesome. The kids even said they thought the mash tasted buttery! Thanks for a keeper.
See Discussion:1 Review
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 lb carrot, cut into 1 inch chunks
- 1 parsnip, peeled and cut into 1 inch chunks
- 2 teaspoons butter
- 1 large vidalia onion, coarsely chopped
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar (optional)
- 1⁄4 teaspoon thyme
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 pinch nutmeg
- 1 (19 ounce) can chickpeas (I use the 15 oz kind which is easier to find)
Directions See How It's Made
- Prepare the carrots and parsnips for cooking and add to a large saucepan. (Though the original recipe called for peeled carrots, I prefer not to peel.) Add water to cover vegetables and bring the pot to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes until the carrots and parsnips are tender.
- While the carrots and parsnips are cooking, melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring often until the onions ae cooked and a golden brown, about 6 to 8 minutes. If you are using the sugar, add now. Add the thyme. Reduce the heat to low and continue cooking another 6 minutes. If the pan seems too dry (onions are sticking), add a teaspoon of the cooking broth from the carrots and parsnips. Onions should be nicely browned and barely holding their shape.
- Add drained chickpeas, to the onions and cook until warmed through, about 3 minutes.
- Drain the carrots and parsnips, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid. Keep warm. Using an immersion blender, counter blender or food processor puree the carrots & parsnips with the salt, pepper and nutmeg and 1/3 cup of cooking liquid. If they are too thick for your tastes, add additional cooking liquid.
- To assemble the dish, serve a portion of the carrots and parsnips mounding down a center. Place a portion of the onions and chickpeas in the center well. Alternately, you can serve family-style with a mound of the mash int he center with a ring of the onions and chickpeas around the outside.
- (For WW: 5 points per serving on Flex; Core (w/o brown sugar) plus 1/2 point).

[Hetaween] Philippines OC Lineart by ExelionStarWatch
©2013-2017 ExelionStar
I wasn't able to upload this on the day of October 31. Sorry
Phili's costume is of a mambabarang. A Mambabarang is a witch that can summon demons and ghost, and curse to kill. It's kind of a high level witch in our country. There's a witch that can only curse someone with just sickness, some can only summon, can cure and others can curse to kill. I found in google the reference to this costume. I forgot the link though but I think you'll know when you see it
I was planning to color this Himaruya style but I'm still learning how to do it. So maybe I'll color this some other time.
Mambabarang?! Pwede Mangkukulam na lang?! (Its less scarier...*shiver*)
Ey sis! There's a ghost at dA! xD
Cool woork!
wow!! Phili is very scary....and sweet ;D <3

Daylight Saving
Eternity Playhouse, November 3
The remorseless passing of our best years and the promise of a brief suspension of time are key ideas in Nick Enright's 1989 romantic farce.
Whale Beach restaurateur Felicity (Rachel Gordon) is living the good life: successful business, high profile husband, a home overlooking Pittwater.
But it isn't all roses. We meet her as her husband of seven years, Tom (Christopher Stollery), is once again charging out the door and heading for the airport. He's the manager of a temperamental tennis star and there's a big-money deal to be signed in Los Angeles.
On the eve of Tom's return, Felicity, smarting from a TV appearance, is contacted by an old flame, Josh (Ian Stenlake). Back in the day he was a firebrand student and her first love. Now he's a professor of political history and is in Sydney on a speaking tour.
A dinner chez "Flicka" is hastily arranged. Oysters are shucked. Lobster is prepared. The table is decorated with a miniature American flag, a coy reference to their high school romance, which was consummated in 1969 on Old Glory, no less. Tonight, there will be fabulous twilight vistas over Pittwater and with the end of daylight saving, an extra hour to savour.
But Felicity's plans soon go awry. Barely a minute goes by without an interruption from her busybody mother, Bunty (Belinda Giblin) and neighbour-in-crisis Stephanie (Helen Dallimore). Worse still, Tom's travel itinerary proves to be more fluid than previously imagined.
Abetted by designer Hugh O'Connor, director Adam Cook's production taps a vein of warm nostalgia for the late 1980s. Snatches of Roxette and Jenny Morris take you back. Tom's brick-sized mobile phone gets the biggest laugh of the night.
Cook's cast handles the material confidently and the comic timing is sharp. Gordon finds the brittleness and disappointment in Felicity. Stenlake is convincingly charming as her grown-up American beau. Stollery is effortlessly smooth as Tom, Giblin dryly funny as an archetypal North Shore widow, and Dallimore a scene-stealer. Stephanie's sneaky tucking into what was supposed to be a romantic dinner for two is a lesson in the fine arts of upstaging. Jacob Warner brings contrasting energy to later scenes as Jason Strutt, Tom's swell-headed tennis ace.
Daylight Saving was something of a breakthrough play for Enright and this production shows its facets well. It's tightly constructed, shrewdly observed and, for a farce, notably humane.
Is it fun? Sure, if a strictly middle-of-the-road comic trip is your thing. Don't go expecting waves of laughter. This, like Pittwater itself, offers gentle ripples.
Until November 30

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I have sort of a unique situation I was hoping you could help me with. Earlier this year I received a DUI in California, but was already in the process of relocating to Oregon.. My California license was suspended but i had already given up my address and am now residing in Oregon. My attorney has told me that it is possible to serve the sentence in Oregon but that I will not be able to get a california license until i take the in-person alcohol class in california.. my question is, If I take the class in Oregon and then a years time goes by will I be able to get a License in Oregon?
The best person to answer this question is your attorney. "Alcohol class" can mean a lot of different things but my guess is that you will not be able to get an Oregon license until you clear up your California suspension.Ask a similar question
CA will report the suspension to OR. It's likely OR won't consider you for a license if you have a CA suspension. Clear your CA suspension for best chance to get an OR license.Ask a similar question
You should speak with either your original attorney or another attorney who practices in California. It is possible that an Oregon "alcohol class" may meet the California requirements, but they are going to be able to more accurately advise you than an Oregon attorney. Oregon will typically honor license suspensions and other California DMV activity and you will likely need to be in a situation where you could obtain a California license before you can get one in Oregon (other than residency requirements).Ask a similar question

text: OK, today I got a quote from JD on a 50D and the closest Kubota dealer on a KX161-3R4AS. Here are the specs on what they were pricing: Mini Excavator Hydraulic Thumb Quick Attach Coupler 12" Bucket 24" Bucket 36" Bucket Angle Blade* Cab with Air Delivered *John Deere does not offer angling blade The Deere is coming in at $59,500 and the Kubota is coming in at $55,500. The only variable not mentioned is that teh JD dealer is offering to buy my 35D (2005 model which only has 275 hours) for 30k, which would make things easy for me. When comparing machines, it seems the Kubota isn't even in the same class. Some of the things to keep in mind regarding the Kubota: Has the Auxilary Hydraulic controls on the joystick Has the angle balde Weighs 1500lbs more Offers up to a foot more digging reach 4k Less Will not buy my machine John Deere: Salesman is a buddy Will buy my Mini Known Excellent support I just have no experience with Kubota...I know Squizz uses one and I trust his opinion. In fact, I trust everyone on here's opinion, mainly becuase you all use these machines day in and day out. I am expecting a price from Cat on a 305 C CR, but he has already informed me that he is going to be "a good bit more" than the JD 50D. PLease folks, let me know your opinions!

|Confusion with configurations and publishing
|Tue, 01 Jan 2008 07:28:49 GMT
I am building a module with native binaries inside. Dll's for windows, and so's for unixes. I figured configurations would be a good way to handle the different artifacts depending on which platform the build was running on. I made configurations for each platform and specified the artifacts and listed the configurations each was applicable for. Everything was good until I tried to publish. <target name="publish.local" depends="module"> <ivy:publish resolver="local" pubrevision="${ivy.new.revision}"> <artifacts pattern="${basedir}/build/module/[type]/[artifact].[ext]"/> <artifacts pattern="${basedir}/build/module/[type]/[conf]/[artifact].[ext]"/> </ivy:publish> </target> I have two artifacts patterns, one for the java stuff which is not platform specific so it is located in a directory that doesn't have the configuration (or platform) name in the path. The other has the [conf] in the pattern since the platform specific artifacts to publish are inside a subdirectory by the name of the configuration (or platform). I get errors during the publish stating it can't find my artifact to publish. It shows that it tries the first pattern and fails. It then shows me it tries the second pattern but has "default" as the conf instead of one of my configurations. Therefore, this fails too. I even tried putting a conf="win32" to try hardcoding a conf during the publish, but it still tries to lookup the pattern with "default". Am I missing something? Is there a better way to handle platform specific binaries when publishing? --- Shawn Castrianni ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail, including any attached files, may contain confidential and privileged information for the sole use of the intended recipient.

The Creation CD's are great! I gave one to my Pastor and have been sending them along with Christmas cards. I am also considering sending one to the local PBS affiliate.
For so many years, I had just accepted that evolution brought man into existence. This was a direct result of it being taught in school and presented in the media as fact. It's the old game of me thinking 'Well, they're scientists, they must know what they are talking about.'
The disc has also explained things about evolution that I just knew weren't right (I.E. Radio carbon dating and rapid land transformations).
I havent finished reading it all yet and am looking forward to some quiet time to finish.
God bless,

SWINDON skipper Troy Batchelor made his long-awaited GP debut in a dramatic New Zealand Grand Prix in Auckland on Saturday.
Having been handed a late call-up to the series as a replacement for Russian racer Emil Sayfutdinov, Batchelor kicked off his World Championship campaign with a creditable performance at Western Springs.
The Aussie ace got his night off to a solid start with three points from his opening two rides – but he was thrown from his motorcycle after hitting a rut in his third ride and duly excluded.
After dusting himself down, Batchelor notched one more point in his final outing to end with a solid, albeit unspectacular, four points haul to begin his career at the top level of the sport.
Meanwhile, it was German Martin Smolinski who stunned the rest of the field to snatch victory from Nicki Pedersen and Krzysztof Kasprzak in thrilling fashion following a tense Grand Final.
FIM New Zealand Grand Prix ( Auckland): Martin Smolinski 15 (1st), Nicki Pedersen 19 (2nd), Krzysztof Kasprzak 17 (3rd), Fredrik Lindgren 13 (4th), Kenneth Bjerre 11, Chris Holder 11, Jaroslaw Hampel 8, Andreas Jonsson 7, Tai Woffinden 7, Greg Hancock 6, Matej Zagar 6, Niels K Iversen 6, Darcy Ward 5, Troy Batchelor 4, Jason Bunyan 2, Chris Harris 0, Andrew Aldridge 0.

That's definitely interesting to know, but one has to see if there is a standard API for these things. The Linux man pages of syslog() and friends do not mention MSGID.

By engaging in psychotherapy with my, you provide yourself with the opportunity to gain understanding of yourself and others, increase your tolerance, determine your life goals, examine how your behaviors either match or do not match your values and goals, and decide how you want to modify your behaviors so that you can experience less suffering. You will be provided with much support and plenty of opportunities to experiment with various healthy ways of being in the privacy and safety of the therapy office. While you may initially worry about feeling dependent upon therapy, you will gradually gain healthy independence and confidence in your own abilities.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

2012 Academy Awards
February 27, 2012 by staff
2012 Academy Awards, The 84th Annual Academy Awards were broadcast on Sunday, February 26, and "The Artist" took home Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Director, among other awards, including Best Original Score and Costume Design. The last time a silent film won was in 1927/1928, when "Wings" picked up the first Best Picture statue ever awarded.
Among the top winners of the evening were:
Best Picture
• "The Artist"
Best Actor
• Jean Dujardin – "The Artist"
Best Actress
• Meryl Streep – "The Iron Lady"
Best Supporting Actor
• Christopher Plummer – "Beginners"
Best Supporting Actress
• Octavia Spencer – "The Help"
Best Director
• Michel Hazanavicius – "The Artist"
Original Song
• "Man or Muppet" – "The Muppets" – Bret McKenzie
The producer of "The Artist," Thomas Langmann, as well as director Hazanavicius, accepted the award for Best Picture, as an effusive Hazanavicius thanked just three people, "Billy Wilder, Billy Wilder and Billy Wilder."
With 17 nominations, more than anyone in Oscar history, Streep gave a thoughtful acceptance speech by thanking her husband first, as she revealed "If you wait to the end to thank your loved ones the music will cut you off." This is Streep's third Oscar in a career that has spanned four decades. She won Best Actress in both 1980 for "Kramer vs. Kramer," and again in 1983 for "Sophie's Choice."
Plummer, who won his first Oscar is also the oldest actor to receive an Academy Award at 82. Plummer caressed the little gold man and announced "You're only two years older than me, darling. Where have you been all my life?" and went on to graciously thank his wife of more than 40 years.
There were no surprises during the evening, and host Billy Crystal kept the evening moving smoothly with an expected opening montage dedicated to the nine nominated films. For his ninth appearance as host, Crystal certainly knows how to keep the Hollywood elite entertained with tasteful humor and good-hearted ribbing.
However, for those watching E!'s red carpet coverage before the broadcast, a startled Ryan Seacrest handled the childish behavior of actor Sacha Baron Cohen, who managed to spill an urn of ashes all over the tuxedo clad Seacrest before being escorted off the red carpet, with panache and grace. Cohen should have considered other outlets for his shameless promotion of "Dictator" as he was asked by the Academy not to appear in character on the red carpet – a lame move from a silly man.

Investigating enterprise systems adoption: uncertainty avoidance, intrinsic motivation, and the technology acceptance model

Enterprise systems are gaining interest from both practitioners and researchers because of their potential linkages to organizational and individual user's productivity. Information systems (IS) researchers have been investigating the implementation and adoption issues of enterprise systems based on the organizational IS management perspectives. However, there are few papers that investigate enterprise systems management and implementation issues based on the informal control mechanisms, although the enterprise systems are control tools in the organization. Specifically, this paper applies Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) adoption and implementation to the informal controls, such as cultural control and self-control, which can be viewed as a tacit perspective in knowledge management. Uncertainty avoidance and perceived enjoyment are used as informal controls in the ERP implementation in this paper, and are linked to the technology acceptance variables to investigate the relationships among them. Sociotechnical design, organizational control mechanism, knowledge management, and individual motivation are reviewed to support this potential linkage in the model. Field data via the online survey of ERP systems user group (n=101) are analyzed with partial least squares and supported our hypotheses. Uncertainty avoidance cultural control and intrinsic motivation as self-control are the important antecedents of ERP systems adoption. Furthermore, the result helps the systems manager understand that informal controls should be applied to the ERP systems implementation to enhance tacit and social aspects of IS management.

The billionaire businessman, who has given millions of pounds to bankroll Tory campaigning in marginal seats, admitted today he does not pay tax in the UK on earnings overseas.
But he insisted his arrangements were in line with assurances he gave when granted his peerage a decade ago that he would take up permanent residence in the UK.
But Justice Secretary Jack Straw said Lord Ashcroft's surprise announcement - after years of speculation - meant he had failed to keep his promise.
He accused senior Conservatives of "concealing the truth" for 10 years.
Mr Straw said David Cameron was trying to use Lord Ashcroft's money to "buy the election" while Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg said it was "wholly wrong" for a non-dom to fund a campaign.
Lord Ashcroft has been central - both by providing financial backing and in his role as Tory deputy chairman - to the policy of targeting marginal seats which if successful could see Mr Cameron in Downing Street.
He has made donations worth more than £4 million through Bearwood Corporate Services since Mr Cameron became leader in 2005.
These gifts are the subject of an Electoral Commission investigation into claims the UK-registered company is not carrying out business in Britain and is therefore ineligible to donate.
In a statement on his website, Lord Ashcroft said: "Throughout the last 10 years, I have been declaring all my UK income to HM Revenue. My precise tax status therefore is that of a 'non-dom'.Reuse content

Two days ago, a disturbing video emerged of a gang of black thugs assaulting two white men in Salt Lake City for displaying a small Confederate flag in their truck window.
If a confederate flag waving gang of bikers had assaulted two black men, this would be all over the national news. However, since it was the other way around, not one national media outlet has covered this besides Fox News.
"The truck belonged to Kelly Leeper's friend. Leeper was in town for the Garth Brooks concert. On Sunday, he said looked out the window of his room at the Red Lion and saw a group of black men near his friend's truck," reports Fox 13.
According to Infowars, the two men were concerned about the $50,000 worth of equipment in the back, so they went to the parking lot. There, they were confronted by a gang of six black men who punched Leeper's friend in the face, knocking him out. Then, Leeper himself was viciously assaulted by the thugs.
Sgt. Robin Heiden, spokeswoman for Salt Lake City Police Department, said this incident may be treated like a hate crime, and that the police are confident that they will track down the perpetrators.
"Somebody thought to get a plate number as well and that's really going to help in this case," she said. "I think we'll probably be able to track down that vehicle."
Whatever you think about the Confederate flag, you can't argue with the fact that Leeper and his friend were completely within their First Amendment rights in displaying it.
"I'll be damned if I ever come to Salt Lake again without bringing my gun," Leeper asserted. "The point is it's my right to drive what any kind of vehicle I want. If I want to fly the Confederate Flag, it's my right."
It's sickening that no mainstream media outlets are covering this brutal hate crime. Welcome to Obama's America, folks!

Matt Kenseth will win the 2013 Chase for the Sprint Cup.
"Wait a minute!" you may be wondering.
Kenseth already won the opening Chase race at soggy Chicagoland last weekend, so picking Kenseth isn't necessarily the boldest prediction on the planet.
True, but you may recall it was hard to predict who would win the Chase last week because we really didn't know who would actually be in the Chase until late Friday afternoon when Jeff Gordon was added to the now-13-driver scrum.

Canadians Karina LeBlanc and Candace Chapman are headed to Sky Blue FC of Women's Professional Soccer.
LeBlanc, Canada's veteran goalkeeper, and Chapman, a defender, are coming off a gold-medal performance at the Pan American Games last month in Guadalajara, Mexico.
LeBlanc returns to New Jersey after helping the New Jersey Wildcats win the 2005 USL W-League championship. She also worked as a goalkeepers coach at Rutgers University.
"There's been some discussion over the last little while whether I'd want to play in the WPS or go overseas," LeBlanc said in an interview from Phoenix where she's training with the Canadian national team.
"I know New Jersey very well. I coached at Rutgers for the majority of those years. I know the area and the organization and Candace and I have chatted about possibly getting a chance to one day work together."
LeBlanc has 90 international caps and has made a Canadian-record four World Cup appearances. The 31-year-old from Maple Ridge, B.C., was instrumental in Canada's first Pan Am title, stopping a pair of shots in a penalty shootout against Brazil.
She said working with her Canadian teammate with her new club will be a big boost.
"Getting the chance to play with your centre back more is only going to help at the international level as well," LeBlanc said. "I'm excited about it because we're close friends and being able to play with someone you're comfortable with is a huge bonus, for this league but also for our national team."
LeBlanc played for the Boston Breakers of the Women's United Soccer Association, the Montreal Xtreme of the USL W-League, the Los Angeles Sol, and the Philadelphia Independence. She played last season for magicJack SC of WPS before that franchise was terminated last month.
"We are very excited to have Karina come back to New Jersey," Gabarra said in a release. "She is a very flamboyant and experienced goalkeeper who will bring a lot of leadership to the field in terms of motivation. She will be a great addition for us in goal, as well as personality-wise."
Chapman will become the only player in WPS history to have played for all three league champions.
The 28-year-old from Ajax, Ont., has anchored the defence of FC Gold Pride and the Western New York Flash the past two seasons, capping off each campaign with a WPS championship.
She has 91 caps and six goals for Canada.
"Candace helps us address our central defender needs with someone who is a calm player, and she will organize and motivate our team in the back as well," Gabarra said. "She has very good international experience and has also won championships in each of the past two seasons."Report Typo/Error

I just turned 58. I would like to know if laser or injections would help. I have a small upper lip. And what are the costs?
What would be the best treatment to reduce the deep, many wrinkles especially on the lower part of my face. (photos)
Doctor Answers 17
Reduce wrinkles
Based on the photo you submitted I would suggest you could get significant benefit from:
1. Botox to the glabella (between your eyes), 2. Restylane under your eyes, in the nasolabial folds, lips and marrionette lines, 3. resurfacing either with laser or chemical peel.
Hope this helps.
Laser Skin Resurfacing
Thank you for your question. Laser skin resurfacing can remove facial wrinkles and deep lines around the mouth and eyes. The ideal patient for skin resurfacing has fair, healthy, non-oily skin. Always consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon.
Best wishes,

You may be a good candidate for laser skin resurfacing combined with injectable fillers.
Judging from your photos, you could benefit from laser skin resurfacing to help smooth away the lines and wrinkles in your mouth and chin area, as well as reduce the appearance of any sun damage. If you're bothered by the size of your upper lip, laser skin resurfacing can be combined with injectable fillers to give you a subtle boost of volume for a more youthful look. I would suggest scheduling a consultation with a cosmetic surgeon to get a more detailed assessment of which treatment options might be most appropriate for your needs and goals. Best of luck!

What to do?
Personally, I think your best options for non-surgical options for the brown spots and wrinkles are either chemical peel (TCA or Hetter) or laser resurfacing.
Microneedling or RF treatments would be less effective.

What's the best treatment for facial wrinkles and brown spots?
Thank you for sharing your question and photo. You would benefit from Erbium laser skin resurfacing and PRP with Microneedling (Vampire Facelift). This combination would improve your wrinkles, brown spots and sun damage. Make an appointment with an experienced facial surgeon for comprehensive evaluation and proper guidance. Good luck,

Lower face wrinkles
I think you have a few options for the deeper lower face wrinkles- either a facelift/ mini facelift, laser resurfacing of lower face (will need 2-3 treatments), or a non-invasive skin tightening like INFINI.
CO2 Laser Resurfacing and/or Mini-Facelift would offer significatn improvement
Depending on what you mean by deep wrinkles, either CO2 laser, or a mini-facelift would offer an excellent solution. Laser improves the skin tone and texture, while mini-facelift lifts and tightens deeper folds. We charge $3.600 for full face CO2 laser resurfacing and $5,400 for mini-facelift.
CO2 laser resurfacing is the gold standard for reducing facial wrinkles.
Hello, Thank you for your question. I have been in practice for over 13 years and prior to that I completed a four year Otolaryngolgy/Facial Plastic Surgery residency, where I personally performed at least 100 full face CO2 laser resurfacing procedures. The best answer to your question would be full face CO2 laser resurfacing. In order to achieve the best result, you must prepare your skin for this rewarding procedure. 6-8 weeks prior to surgery you must refrain from significant sun exposure and use at least 2 creams, tretinoin (Rerin-A) as well as hydroquinone. Using these creams helps achieve a more even result as well as helps to prevent post-operative complications. In addition, while many doctors have CO2 lasers in there office or a similar wavelength. I feel very strongly that in order to achieve the correct depth of skin vaporization, the procedure must be performed under general anesthesia. Otherwise, when the laser hits the skin, no matter what local anesthetic techniques are utilized, it will be too painful to achieve the best result. Only when the laser hits the skin is it painful. Post-operatively, it is not painful except some mild to moderate burning sensation for about an hour after surgery. CO2 laser applied to the facial skin will remove the entire epidermis and a portion of the dermis. During the initial healing, about 10 days, the patient will grow fresh, new skin that will de mostly devoid of wrinkles similar to yours. The cost can be anywhere from 3,000 to 5000 dollars. Fillers serve their purpose but are temporary and you would require many syringes of filler to fill your lines and it is just not the best treatment for filing many facial lines the cost will ultimately be about the same for fillers and the result will be 6-9 months compared to many years using the CO2 laser. See a surgeon that is very familiar with CO2 resurfacing, just as you would do when selecting a surgeon for any potential procedure.
Erbium Laser and filler
Laser skin resurfacing of the full face will help soften wrinkles and help with the existing sun damage. You can expect about a full week of recovery. Depending on the intensity that you want,my patients usually take off work or work from home during that time. Then you could consider fillers in the lips after your laser recovery.
Facial wrinkles
MiXto CO2 Laser resurfacing is a great option (price varies by region of the country and extent of treatment - but you would get a lot of improvement for the cost). The patented hand piece delivers the treatment in a Z-pattern which is more comfortable than sequential delivery systems. This can be done with or without sedation using topical anesthetic cream and selective nerve blocks in an office setting. The social down time with optimal treatment is 5-7 days and the recovery is comfortable with little or no risk of infection and scarring. Maintenance of your new skin is important as the photo-aging process will continue. Sun precautions and skin care products (anti-oxidants, moisturizer, sun screen, retinols) are a must. If you are a smoker - this will affect your healing and cause continued aging of the skin. I would recommend Laser resurfacing first, followed by filler, but they could be done at the same time. A pass of OPL (CynoSure Icon MaxG) could be done prior to MiXto - or later as a maintenance treatment of pigment and vessels. Radiofrequency (Pelleve) is an alternative with no down time, but produces only temporary results and requires multiple treatments (much less "bang for the buck"). Often you can find physicians who have "package deals" or specials... Best wishes with your decisions!

Ford Capri Perana

Ford Capri Perana, "Son, I'm going to let you drive my prized Ford Capri Perana. I worship this car."
"I get it, Dad."
"I'm serious. If I had to make a choice between this car and you, it would take me awhile."
"That's not nice, Dad."
"But it's the truth, son. Now. Prove to me that you and my car can co-exist. Or you'll make the choice that much easier."
"Sure thing, Dad! Thanks! You're the best!"
"Now, be careful of the line as you approach the water … "
Yeah, uh … whoops. That's George Miedecke driving his father Andrew's ride straight into the Tasmanian drink at the Targa Wrest Point road rally. Andrew's back injury kept him from running the race himself, so he put his car in the hands of his 24-year-old son … you can see how it turned out. Apparently, he gave George only two instructions: don't crash, and don't come in second. One out of two ain't bad, right? Right … ?

General Buhari Says Hired Killers Attacked His Convoy In Kaduna In Official Press Statement
July 24, 2014 – General Buhari Says Hired Killers Attacked His Convoy In Kaduna In Official Press Statement
Here is an official press statement by General Muhammad Buhari on the suicide bomb blast that rocked Kaduna yesterday.
He described the incident as an assassination attempt on his life.
In his own words:
"I was personally involved in a clearly targeted bomb attack today along Ali Akilu Road, Kawo – Kaduna about 2:30pm on my way to Daura.
The unfortunate event, clearly an assassination attempt, came from a fast moving vehicle that made many attempts to overtake my security car but was blocked by my escort vehicle. We reached the market area of Kawo where he took advantage of our slowing down and attempted to ram my car and instantly denoted the bomb which destroyed all the three cars in our convoy. Unfortunately, when I came out of my vehicle I saw many dead bodies littered around. They were innocent people going about their daily business who became victims of mass murder.
Thank God for His mercy, I came out unhurt but with three of my security staff sustaining minor injuries – they have been treated in hospital and discharged.
Signed: General Muhammadu Buhari (Rtd) GCFR"

The day I got it in I wrapped it and installed it. started the car with jus the down pipe, let it run for awhile. Took it out for a rip IT WAS AWSOME! Then because I didn't have a tune I was over boosting. (not recommended); But was fun.
