What is the effect of dietary intake of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) when substituted for saturated fatty acids on increased risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes, including intermediate markers such as lipid and lipoprotein levels and inflammation? (DGAC 2010)
Strong evidence indicates that dietary monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) are associated with improved blood lipids related to both cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes (T2D), when they are a replacement for dietary saturated fatty acids (SFA). The evidence shows that five percent energy replacement of SFA with MUFA decreases intermediate markers and the risk of CVD and T2D in healthy adults and improves insulin responsiveness in insulin resistant and T2D subjects.
StrongResearch Recommendations
Determine the benefits and risks of MUFA vs. PUFA as an isocalaoric substitute for SFA. Determine the mechanism by which dietary MUFA improve serum lipids, glucose metabolism, insulin levels, HOMA scores, inflammatory markers and blood pressure in both healthy persons and in persons with T2D.

text: The Chutes and Ladders wiki last edited by jeffreyv2512 on 03/03/14 03:51PM View full history Belasco and his demon hordes are looking to use Illyana for their nefarious purposes. Can the X-Men save Colossus's sister?While the X-Men go through a training exercise on their island headquarters, the evil sorcerer Belasco lures Colossus' little sister Illyana away from the X-Men's side. Sprite notices that Illyana is taking off, follows her into a temple and steps on a light circle that teleports her away. Noticing that both girls are gone, the X-Men follow their trail to the temple, where they too are teleported away by the light discs. All of them are taken to an other-dimensional Limbo, but they arrive in different locations. When Kitty awakes, she is approached by Nightcrawler, who starts touching her lewdly and Kitty realizes that this is not the Nightcrawler she knows. She flees right into the arms of Belasco, who imprisons her in a magical crystal and separates her skeleton from the rest of her body, keeping it aloft in front of the crystal. He then turns to Illyana and hands her a magical locket, promising her that she'll ascend to a glorious destiny. This scene is watched by the real Nightcrawler, crouching in the shadows. He approaches his evil double and after defeating him, takes his place at Belasco's side waiting for an opportunity to strike. Colossus and Storm arrive in a labyrinth, and Ororo is attacked by a multitude of tentacles. Colossus tries to help, but another disc of light teleports him away. Storm thinks herself doomed, but a cloaked figure magically transforms her into an amalgam of Wolverine, Colossus and Nightcrawler, enabling her to free herself, before she faints. Ororo wakes up in a lovely familiar-seeming home, normal and healed, with fresh clothes and an amulet by her side. Wolverine in the meantime is confused as he found traces of his teammates, but they are much too old. His confusion grows, when he finds the corpse of an elderly Colossus. Wolverine is then approached by Belasco's servant S'ym, who claims he killed Colossus. Their fight is short and just as Wolverine is about to be killed, another teleportation circle kicks in and he is safely sped away. S'ym is joined by the real Colossus, who is mystified by his dead double. S'ym injures him and quickly gains the upper hand in their fight, until he is diverted by the returned Wolverine. Colossus uses that chance and kicks the demon into the next teleportation circle. Wolverine explains that he was found and sent to Peter's side by the mysterious cloaked woman (who earlier helped Storm). She teleports them to Belasco's throne room, and Nightcrawler and Storm join them in fighting the sorcerer, who flees. The cloaked figure turns out to be an older version of Storm with magical powers. She restores Kitty and then urges the X-Men to leave with the amulet Storm took. While she hold off the demon horde the returned Belasco brought with him, the X-Men travel home, but in the last instant, Belasco grabs Illyana. Kitty holds onto her, but loses her grip when they return to the island temple. She once more grabs Illyana through the closing circle and together the X-Men pull her through. However, time passed differently in Limbo and the Illyana they brought back is now thirteen instead of six years old. Later Colossus blames himself for what happened to his sister as he keeps guard at her side.

really liked Terrapin's Moo Hoo. A Chocolate Milk Stout. Also love Fuller's London Pride, anything from "The Bruery" Boulder's Hazed and Infused and Left Hand Milk Stout.
Trying out the Ranger IPA from New Belgium. I am not a huge fan of IPAs normally but I am enjoying this one.
Had a Flying Dog Double Dog Pale Ale. Don't know why they call it a pale ale. It's definitely an Imperial IPA. 11.5% ABV and at least 100 IBUs. Perfect for right after the dojo.
My son was the executive chef chef at three restaurants in Athens, Ga. One was the Basil Press (now closed), Porterhouse, and Copper Creek (micro brew). My wife would visit him once a month and we usually would pay a visit to the Copper Creek. This place is in Dawg Central but it is still a must visit if you are ever in Athens. The brewmaster is top class and has won several regional awards. He mixes the selection up to make eager to see what is new or if an old favorite is available again. The food is good got bar food but the beer is the main attraction. The brewmaster is great with the stouts. Very smooth and great on the tastebuds. Too bad he is in Chicago now because we haven't back to Copper Creek since he left a few years ago.
Please note that I did my job and I turned my son into a die hard Gator. But that was not enough. Near the end of his five year stay in Athens he fell in love with a girl who graduate from UGA. Worst yet she is a Yankee from New York. All is not bad she is a real American beauty, real smart, and recently earn a masters in Psychology (in Chicago). When she graduated from UGA my son and her were together for two years. She advised him that she was going to grad school in Chicago. He told her that he had out grown Athens and was ready for big city life and work. That was four and a half years ago. He is now the Executive Chef (Partner) at the Capital Grill on Ontario St a block off Michigan Ave. Also he is still with that great girl.
Strange, when I lived in Chicago, the Binny's off Clybourn never carried the 4 pack of 120 from what I saw. Everytime I asked, they said that it was sold out and a new shipment would come on Tuesday. Come Tuesday, no 120. Palo was insanely good. Have you tried the Namaste? I believe it is a summer release. Not strong, with hints of citrus. Good, decent summer beer.

As part of the huge $878 trillion (Or was it $787 billion? Can anyone remember, anymore?) "economic stimulus" created in Washington last winter, Congress OK'd a tax credit of between $4,200 and $5,500 for Americans who purchase an electric vehicle.
Some controversy arose as to which vehicles, exactly, qualified. The IRS recently ruled any electric vehicle qualifies for the subsidy, so long as it is road-worthy.
That means the model in question needs to have side and rearview mirrors and three-point seat belts, and be capable of going at least 15 to 25 mph. Meet those requirements, combine the federal credit with similar incentive plans in many states, and many a creative subject of the realm has discovered the government will now pay virtually the entire cost of acquiring a new ... golf cart.
"We thought Cash for Clunkers was the ultimate waste of taxpayer money, but as usual we were too optimistic," The Wall Street Journal editorialized on Oct. 17.
"The purchase of some models could be absolutely free," Roger Gaddis of Ada Electric Cars in Oklahoma enthused. "Is that about the coolest thing you've ever heard?"
The IRS also has ruled there's no limit to how many electric cars an individual can buy, the Journal reports, inspiring some enterprising investors to stock up on multiple carts while the federal credit lasts, in order to resell them at a profit later on.
"This golf-cart fiasco perfectly illustrates tax policy in the age of Obama, when politicians dole out credits and loopholes for everything from plug-in cars to fuel efficient appliances, home insulation and vitamins," The Wall Street Journal concludes. "Democrats then insist that to pay for these absurdities they have no choice but to raise tax rates on other things -- like work and investment -- that aren't politically in vogue. If this keeps up, it'll soon make more sense to retire and play golf than work for a living."
Like the science fiction novel in which the new planet being settled by earthlings has only two species of animal, which get along just fine by simply eating each other, it sounds fine in theory. Try it for too long in the real world, though, and we suspect you might end up in the same place as those people who bought multiple houses on margin to flip them "because housing prices can only go up," or the guy who plowed his life savings into a chain letter and then sat there, waiting for the promised envelopes full of cash to start showing up in his mailbox ...

Their Name Says It All
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
If you're heading out in sub 30F with wind chills into the upper teens / lower 20's, look no further - I only wish I could find something similar for an overshoe. These mitts are truly something special. There's a sacrifice of dexterity, but you'll have full mobility of your digits when you stop to open food. They come with liners, at least the previous model did, which comes in handy to help regulate temp. My fingers are very sensitive to the cold from years of abuse during my youth in Michigan. During really long rides I wrap my thumbs with a plastic bag to cover the tips since they don't have an a joining finger to help keep them warm.
100% Bomb Proof!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
I bought these gloves for cycling in the 30s and below. The gloves come with an insulated shell and a pair of standard liners. The combo of the two is an incredibly warm set of gloves. I have used these gloves into the teens and my hands stay warm. The dexterity is not of 5 fingered gloves but this should be expected that 3 finger gloves are not going to have the same dexterity. I am able to shift and brake whenever needed. These gloves are the best cold weather cycling glove I have ever used. If you cycle in the cold and want to keep your hands warm then these are the gloves for you.

Soldiers from First Battalion Welsh Guards paraded through Cardiff city centre after a memorial service at City Hall.
The service was held to remember Lance Corporal Lee Davies, Guardsman Craig Roderick, Guardsman Apete Tuisovurua and Warrant Officer Class 2 Leonard Thomas, who were all killed in action during Operation Herrick 16.
Afterwards, soldiers marched through the centre of Cardiff to a reception to celebrate their return at Cardiff Arms Park where the Walk on Wales campaign was also launched.
The campaign will see relay teams walk the Welsh Coast Path to raise £1 million for the Welsh Guards Afghanistan Appeal and Combat Stress in August next year.
Wales forward Jones took time out of from his preparations for tomorrow's game with Australia to attend the event and support what he sees as a worthy cause.
"I'm going to support the Walk on Wales campaign and I'm also a patron of the Welsh Guards. It's a relationship that has grown over recent months and it's a worthy cause," he said.
"I've got nothing but admiration for what these guys go through and the sacrifices they make.
"When you see all the hard work they put in both abroad and when they get back to Wales it's truly inspiring."
A number of dignitaries attended the parade and showed their support for the troops.
"It's all very well watching it from the TV in your kitchen but when you hear about the sacrifices the soldiers make they deserve all the support they get," added Jones.
"They're the real heroes in Wales and it's something the whole country needs to get behind."

Popular singer Mika Singh was arrested by the Customs department at the Mumbai airport in the early hours of Thursday for carrying cash beyond permissible limit.
The officials found Singh —who was coming from Bangkok — carrying Rs. 3 lakh and $12,000 (equivalent to Rs. 6.36 lakh). One has to declare cash in Indian currency beyond Rs. 7,500 and in foreign currency $3,000.
Singh was also carrying two bottles of liquor and some branded items which he had failed to declare as well.
Officials said he was stopped after he had almost walked out following immigration and customs checks.
Singh was stopped while he was walking through the green channel. Only passengers who do not have anything to declare can walk through the green channel.
Singh was finally released on bail at 3am. He has been booked under the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) and for smuggling under the Customs Act. Singh told officials that he was not aware that he had to declare currency and goods.

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
Let's step back for a moment to look at black and white attitudes before the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri. Understanding the history of attitudes towards the criminal justice system and the police sheds light on views today.
In 1993, 68 percent of blacks told Gallup the American justice system was biased against black people, and twenty years later, in 2013, an identical 68 percent gave that response. Only a third of whites in 1993 and a quarter in 2013 thought the system was biased against blacks. In a question asked in August 2013 by the Pew Research Center, 68 percent of blacks said blacks in their community were treated less fairly than whites in the courts, and 70 percent gave this response about dealings with the police. Seventeen percent of blacks in a summer 2013 Gallup poll said they had been treated unfairly in dealings with the police in the last thirty days.
These long-standing views in the black community help to explain why 65 percent of blacks told Pew Research Center interviewers this past week that the police response in the aftermath of the shooting in Ferguson had gone too far. Twenty percent said it had been about right. Whites were less certain of their views. A third said the response had gone too far, 32 percent that it had been about right, but a large 35 percent volunteered they didn't know or refused to answer.
Nationally, views about the police have held steady for the past 20 years. In 1993, 52 percent nationally said they had a great deal or quite a lot of confidence in the police. When Gallup repeated the question in June this year, 53 percent gave that response. But there are sharp differences in the perceptions of blacks and white. Gallup recently aggregated the data on this question for the years 2011-2014 to look specifically at racial attitudes. Fifty-nine percent of whites and 37 percent of blacks expressed high confidence in the police. That said, Americans are always suspicious of concentrated, centralized authority, and in another question from earlier this year, 56 percent nationally told Pew researchers that "the police should not be able to search people just because they look suspicious," while 41 percent said they should be allowed to "stop and search anyone who fits the general description of a crime suspect."
Questions asked by the libertarian Reason Foundation in recent polls show concerns about police power. Thirty-five percent of whites, compared to 58 percent of blacks, believed cases of police misconduct "such as the use of excessive force or covering up mistakes have been increasing in the past decade." A majority of whites, compared to 32 percent of blacks, said cases of misconduct had stayed the same of the past decade. Blacks (29 percent) were much less confident than whites (51 percent) about whether police are generally held accountable for their actions in the March Reason/Rupe poll.
Although differences of opinion about criminal justice and police practices are large, blacks and whites are in agreement on many other issues. In a December 2013 Reason/Rupe poll, fifty-seven percent of whites and 67 percent of blacks said local police departments using drones, military weapons, and armored vehicles was "going too far." In terms of larger questions on race relations, an August 2013 Pew survey found that 81 percent of whites and 73 percent of blacks said that the races get along with each other very or pretty well.
A stark racial divide in attitudes about the criminal justice system and the police has long been evident in public opinion data. The tension on the streets of Ferguson in part reflects long-held and deeply felt convictions of many in the black community nationally.

Posted Fri 29th of October 2010
Leeza's gang rape continues
Leeza the Teaser 2
Gus pushed her shoulders back down onto the pool table. "Please let me go" she cried.
"Hey. The fun has just begun" says Gus.
He put his mouth over her entire pussy area sucking in her lips, clitty and everything. He didn't mind the taste of cum left over, in fact it made him hornier.
He sucked so hard her pussy lips were sucked into his mouth hard and his tongue found her clit. She jumped, tried to resist mentally, but was too aroused, so then started to pump her hips against Gus's mouth. Meantime, the brothers were lining up for a blowjob, when Bob just shoved his 9" dick into her open mouth. She almost choked, when Bob pinched her nose and started pumping her mouth. If he hadn't shot his load in 10 seconds, she would have died of asphyxiation for sure!
Peter, the quieter brother, then decided to get romantic. He tried to kiss her gently. She was having none of that, thinking they were all rapists. "Either fuck me or fuck off" she said. "Right", said Peter, "if that's how you want it!"
And with that, he pushed Gus aside, picked her up, threw her face down on the table, placed his massive hand in the middle of her back to hold her down, smacked her on the side of the head to make her dizzy, then aimed his huge prick at her virgin date.
"No, no, I'm sorry" she pleaded, "I'm sure you're the one who understands" she said.
"Oh! I understand" said Peter, "I understand more than you know" says he.
"You mistook me for an idiot, instead of someone who sympathised with your predicament" he said, "Well now you'll pay the price for treating ME like a dork"!
He grabbed her naked cheeks, spread them wide open, and tongued her wide open arse hole. She wimpered, as much in appreciation as fear. When she was good and wet, he pulled his rock hard 10" cock out and placed it ever so carefully against her virgin arsehole.
"Please no, not that" she begged.
"Oh yes" he replied, and with this pushed the head of his stiff cock inside her sphyncture, parting her cheeks.
Pushing harder, the head of his cock 'popped' into her anal passage. She let out a loud scream and tensed her muscles, which just made it hurt more, so she relaxed them again.
He waited, allowing her to get used to the feeling, then unmercifully thrust all 10" into her anal passage up to his balls.
She screamed again, he grunted, then shot his load of cum inside her buttocks.
Not satisfied, he waited a few minutes then began to pump again. In 3 minutes he started to cum again, and she responded by having 3 orgasms one after another.
He laid on top of her feeling spent.
She was sore in every way, especially at herself for responding to being raped and arse-raped.
He got off the table, clothed himself and left the room.
She was gasping for breath, decide it was a good time to escape, when the door opened and in came 3 merchant seamen.
"Well, what have we got here" said Benny, the leader of the gang. "Get some beers boys" he said as he grabbed both her ankles, "this could be a long night".
"I was just leaving" says Leeza.
"I don't think so" said the seaman grabbing her wrists.
"OH NO", she thought to herself, and yet the thought of being abused again made her pussy wet.
As she was already naked, Benny laid her back down on the pool table.
He had his head between her thighs and grabbed a nipple in each hand, sucking and licking her pussy lips. The smell and flavour let him know that he was not the first there tonight. But he didn't care – her juices tasted so sweet, he lost himself in her wetness.
Benny's mates, Bri and Den, returned with a dozen bottles of beer, eager to have their turn.
Benny had Leeza well excited by now, so he thrust his now hard cock straight into her pussy, which was flooded with all kinds of juices.
He fucked her like a steam train for what seemed like an hour, then he shot his load inside her, quivering several times before he had emptied his balls into her.
As soon as he withdrew, cum was flowing all over the table, Leeza was in a sort of dream – almost comatose.
Den was engaged in drinking, so Bri saw his opportunity, and while Leeza was recovering from the latest onslaught by the others, he turned Leeza onto her stomach. She tried to resist, scratched his face, but he was too strong.
"Oh no, not again" she thought.
Bri said, "I'll make you sorry for that, slut"; put his hand in the small of her back to ensure she was at the right angle, aimed his 9" rock hard dick at her arsehole and, without even a hesitation, rammed it home, up to his balls.
Her scream could have been heard for miles around.
Having penetrated as far as he could go, he released a spittal onto his cock to provide some lubrication. Together with the blood that flowed from her anus, he had lubrication, so he fucked her unmercifully, occasionally grabbing and squeezing her nipples making her cry out in pain, until he shot his load of cum into her bowels. It felt to her like a hosepipe had been put into her and turned on!
"Don't ever fuck with me again lady" was all he said, as he withdrew his prick, wiped the cum and blood away with her panties, dropped them on the floor and took off.
Because of her background, she was repulsed by what had happened, and yet, to her disgust, she found it all so exciting.
She suddenly realised that she was alone in the room, so managed to escape, got to her car and drove home.
She went straight to the bathroom, stripped and jumped right into the shower, scrubbing herself until she felt clean again, which wasn't easy, given the amount of pain she felt in her pussy and anus. Even her jaws hurt.
She threw her clothes into a garbage bag and would drop them in someone's dumpster in the morning.
She got into bed, but couldn't sleep – depite everything that had happened, the thought of it made her pussy start to get wet again. Now she was no longer a virgin, she realised that had nothing to protect. So, she began to plot her next adventure ……

Statistics have now been gathered, but I will leave the files in case anyone wants to ABX them. The key and statistics are in a spoiler at the bottom of this post.
Hey everyone,
I converted and volume matched some files for a blind test. I'd appreciate your participation, but please follow these guidelines so we can eliminate some unwanted variables entering the test:
1. Put your answers in SPOILERS. Do not read anyone's answers before listening and responding yourself.
This is so nobodies answer is influenced by anyone else.
2. This is a LISTENING test. Not a looking test. No peaking. If you peak you are a bad person.
3. Don't do any bizarre equalization or any other fancy tricks. Listen to them like you would normally listen to your music.
When you listen to each group I'd like for you to answer the following:
- How do you rank each of the files?
- Were you guessing?
- If you weren't guessing, what differences did you hear?
- How difficult was it?
On with the test!
For each group, one file is lossless, one is a 128kbps mp3, another is a 320kbps mp3. They are randomly scrambled, so one group's "A" might not be the same type as the other group's "A".
Group 1 - "Mighty River" by Railroad Earth

While I'd appreciate it if you listened to all three groups, if you don't have the time feel free to only give your feedback on one or two. I tried to make the groups pretty different from each other.
Happy Listening!

If you've seen Joo-won in 1 Night 2 Days, you'll know how ridiculously aegyo-tastic he is in real life, but who knew the same could be said of the rest of Gaksital's cast? In fact, this is a good post for those of you whose nerves are feeling battered, what with all the drama's darkness and nail-biting tension. It's delicious stuff dramatically, but killer for my blood pressure.
It's sort of a trip to see these faces being so goofy and silly while off-duty — even though, yes, I'm fully aware that they're acting and all that. Maybe it's the costumes that push this one over the edge, 'cause Kang-to, making faces for the camera? Our villains looking happy and NOT in murderous rages? Shunji… holding hands with Abe? Ha, is this proof of aegyo as acting coping mechanism? Or should we just be glad they didn't all go Method?
Below is a collection of photos, mostly sel-cas taken behind the scenes and uploaded by the actors themselves, to various Twitter/me2day/social networking accounts. Enjoy — and try not to let it blow your minds too much!

a watermelon can go a long way...
Starting with a handsome, sweet watermelon, you can:
Cut and simply eat it;
... Then juice it and drink it chilled;
... Then sweeten it with a bit of honey and freeze it into granita;
... Then churn it into smooth sorbet; and
... Then add some cream and churn it again into ice cream.
... Or you can always go for some vodka or bubbly to (literally) wash down large pieces of watermelon. Watermelon, bring it on!

The presence of these registry entries is evidence that (one of) the system(s) used to build and capture the POSReady 2009 evaluation system image were infested with malware, and that either the infestation was not detected at all (bad) or the infestation was detected, but incompletely (or accidentially, when "%windir%\temp" was cleared) "removed" and a compromised system used to build the system image (worse). JFTR: MSFT initiated their "trustworthy computing" about 10 years ago!

4 accountability steps that will impact the success of your business
By Anne Bachrach
The Accountability Coach
How does accountability make a positive impact on the success of your business? Take a look at the four top distinguishing factors of business owners who use accountability to get results.
Top distinguishing factors of business owners who integrate accountability into their lives
1. Taking full responsibility for action and non-action
2. Organized, productive and efficient in time management and task completion
3. Accept full responsibility for their actions or non-actions in life and in business
4. They understand that nothing comes without discipline and diligence — they never quit.
Procrastination is at fault for many business failures, and guess who's responsible for procrastination? Yep, you guessed it: You and only you. Understand how to use accountability to build success by taking full accountability for your action and non-action.
Learn what drives your motivation to succeed and exploit it. Maybe you want to retire by age 50, pay for your children's education without going into debt, or pay off your mortgage so you can put more money toward your retirement fund. Whatever the reasons are that drive your motivation, stay connected to them so you can leverage that motivation to avoid procrastination and keep going until you succeed.
Organized, productive and efficient
Every successful entrepreneur understands that organized and efficient productivity is an essential part of leveraging time and energy. You cannot build a business wasting time or spinning your wheels. You have to learn how to do the most in the least amount of time and with the least amount of energy.
When you integrate accountability into everything you do, there is no finger to point at anyone but yourself. Taking that responsibility will naturally drive you to put your best efforts forward and keep you organized, productive and efficient.
If you're truly a procrastinator at heart, you may have to bribe yourself with a reward to get things done. For example, don't allow yourself to go to lunch until you complete three of the five tasks on your to-do list. Another example may be to allow yourself to take a three-day weekend if you meet your goal(s) for the month.
Alternatively, you may have to retraining yourself about unproductive behavior. For example, say you procrastinated or wasted time and didn't accomplish your goals for the day, week, or month. To retrain your mind to think in an efficient manner, create a competition with yourself to accomplish a task faster than you have in the past. Use a stopwatch or timer to keep track of your time. The next time you have to do that task, try to beat your old record. Do that each time until you refine the process enough to become highly efficient. Don't sacrifice quality for the sake of doing it faster. You can become quicker and still maintain quality.
Accept full responsibility
Accountability and wealth go hand-in-hand. When you learn how to use accountability to build success, you'll begin to see just how much power you have in creating your own reality. Set realistic goals, but be sure to stretch yourself a little.;Say you need to net $4,000 each month for personal expenses and an additional $3,000 for business overhead If you need to net a total of $7,000 per month, stretch yourself and shoot for a minimum of $10,000 in sales each month.
Throughout the workday, remind yourself that you are the only one responsible for your reality and take full responsibility for your action or non-action. If you do not meet your goals for the month, don't beat yourself up. Make a list of the actions you took or didn't take and identify where you can make improvements. Use the experience to learn how to refine your actions for better results next time, and use it to set new goals.
Discipline and diligence
Accountability is a major key to improving discipline and diligence, and with that comes improved results. When you understand that the buck stops here, accountability suddenly provides a very clear picture that discipline and diligence will produce results.
Never, ever quit until you succeed.
It's up to you to take the actions required to achieve your goals. Successful business owners are disciplined for a reason — it's because their diligence produces results. You must consistently become your own motivator and cheerleader, although it can be challenging at times to do so.
The truth is that when most of us are left to our own devices, we let too many distractions keep us from the activities we know we need to do. Groups (or coaching) can provide you with support when you need to push through fear or doubt and take action to get the results you desire.
Joining a mastermind or accountability group is vital to your success. As a member of a mastermind or accountability group (or as a coaching client), you will be surrounded by like-minded individuals who can hold you accountable for your actions or non-actions.
You will always need help in evolving and improving your life and business, and accountability is the only way to achieve your goals.

IMATS London had just passed, and so I finally got inspired to incorporate my IMATS Toronto eyeshadows in a look. I should've showed you these in a look by now, but I've sorta been in a makeup rut recently. I'm trying to stay away from my trusty taupe for a little bit and inject some colour back into my life. (I still love you, MAC Satin Taupe!)
Please excuse the brows at the moment. They are in an awkward grow out stage to prep for threading. 🙁
Today's FOTD is super easy actually. I was pleasantly surprised that I can actually pull off a vibrant lilac on the lid. For the details on how to get it, read on.
Get the Look
Apply lavender eyeliner all over the lid as a colour base. Pat in lilac eyeshadow on top of the liner with a flat shader brush. Starting on the outer corner, take the bright violet with a pointed crease brush and sweep up into the outer crease. Blend carefully, but don't overblend. Line lower waterline and lashline with the lavender eyeliner. Using an angled liner brush, apply the bright violet on the lower lashline. Add soft brown just above the crease colour to transition the colour better. Highlight under the brows as usual. Add pink blush to the apples of your cheeks, then extend up and out.
Products Used
Sephora Flashy Mauve Liner (pearly lavender)
MUFE Eyeshadow #89 (vibrant purple lilac)
Auraline Bright Violet Eyeshadow (matte bright violet)
MAC Soft Brown Eyeshadow (matte medium warm brown)
L'Oreal Voluminous mascara
Quo 3-in-1 Brow Pencil in Light
MUFE Blush #112 (matte warm pink — I kinda love this blush. I wish I had a shimmery version of it.)
MAC Lipstick in Patisserie (creamy pink)
FACE atelier Ultra Foundation in #5 + a dab MAC NW 45 (adjusted for colour match)
theBalm timeBalm Concealer in Medium
MAC Mineralize Skin Finish Natural in Medium Dark
MAC Fix+ Rose (I've been having some dry spots recently, so I spray this all over after I've finished my makeup. It also adds a little dewiness to an otherwise very matte look.)
More Pictures…
I tried getting some close up eye shots but my camera + lack of sunlight totally failed me.
Speaking of Makeup Ruts…
Is anyone else getting into a makeup rut, especially during the colder months? I get kind of depressed and it shows in the makeup, LOL! That bright purple gave me a much needed colour boost today.

Standish approves resolution to change to even-year elections
Council terms will likely be extended one year
STANDISH — A resolution passed by the Standish City Council Dec. 16 will change city elections from odd years to even years.
City Manager Curt Hillman said the primary reason for the switch was to save money for the city. Having elections on even years rather than odd years will allow the cost of elections to be shared by the Standish-Sterling Community School District and Arenac County, he said.
"By doing that, it basically has the other entities share the cost of that election," he said. "Right now it costs at least $2,500 to run elections on odd years."
Hillman said the city incurred all of the costs for its 2013 November city council election, which saw only about 57 voters come out.
"For the 40, 50 people you have show up for a city election, you have to have four election workers come out, you have to pay for their meals and stuff," he said.
Having even-year elections falling at the same time as general or presidential elections will likely increase voter turnout, and give a better representation of what the city's registered voters want, Hillman said.
In January, Hillman said he expects city council members to approve lengthening their terms for one year to bring them in line with the even-year election cycle.
"Instead of someone who just got on serving for four years, they'll be on for five years," he said.
Council members who would have been up for reelecton in 2015 will instead be on the ballot in 2016, Hillman said.
City council members Raymond Koroleski, Tosha Tunney and Daniel Couveau and Mayor Mark Winslow were voted in this year, and will be up for reelection in 2018, and council members Doug Ireland, Vi Cook and Charlie Macaulay will be up for reelection in 2016.

Dibelius, in his commentary on the Pastoral Epistles, suggested that they represented a way-of-being in the world resulting from the delay of the parousia. As such they advocate a form of spirituality which can best be described as "good Christian citizenship". This paper, drawing on both Taylor's understanding of the "social imaginary" and Waaijman's understanding of spirituality, examines Dibelius' contention by revisiting the concept of eusebeia (godliness/piety), which is prevalent in the Pastorals, in the light of the lived experience of pagans, Jews and Christians in first-century Ephesus.

The influence of temperature on the photoluminescence properties of single InAs quantum dots grown on patterned GaAs
© Tommila et al.; licensee Springer. 2012
Received: 4 May 2012
Accepted: 6 June 2012
Published: 19 June 2012
We report the temperature-dependent photoluminescence of single site-controlled and self-assembled InAs quantum dots. We have used nanoimprint lithography for patterning GaAs(100) templates and molecular beam epitaxy for quantum dot deposition. We show that the influence of the temperature on the photoluminescence properties is similar for quantum dots on etched nanopatterns and randomly positioned quantum dots on planar surfaces. The photoluminescence properties indicate that the prepatterning does not degrade the radiative recombination rate for the site-controlled quantum dots.

Single semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are the building blocks for future information processing platforms, such as quantum cryptography and quantum computing [1–3]. QDs have been exploited as single [4, 5] and entangled photon sources [6, 7]. In order to enable such applications, the QDs should be fabricated at well-defined positions, rendering impractical the standard epitaxial processes that would result in randomly positioned QDs. The control of QD position can be achieved by creating preferential nucleation sites via patterning the deposited surface. Site-controlled quantum dots (SCQDs) have been fabricated utilizing various patterning techniques [8–12] combined with molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) or metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy. The optical properties of single QDs are easily deteriorated by defects, which are induced during the patterning and subsequent overgrowth. The defects cause nonradiative recombination channels, which degrade the QD photoluminescence (PL). Measuring the optical properties of a QD as a function of temperature provides a method to assess the quality of the QDs.
In this paper, we study the temperature-dependent PL of single SCQDs fabricated on a nanoimprint lithography patterned GaAs(100) surface. We compare their PL properties to the ones of single self-assembled quantum dots (SAQDs) grown on unpatterned surface.
The InAs QD sample was fabricated on a GaAs(100) substrate by combination of MBE and soft ultraviolet nanoimprint lithography (UV-NIL). First, a GaAs buffer layer, an AlGaAs barrier layer and a GaAs layer were grown by MBE. Second, the sample was patterned ex situ by UV-NIL using mr-UVCur06 (Micro Resist Technology GmbH, Berlin, Germany) as an etch mask and an EVG-620 (EV Group, St. Florian am Inn, Austria) mask aligner. The patterned area consisted of holes with a diameter of 100 nm arranged in a square lattice with the period of 1.5 μm. After patterning, the sample was chemically cleaned, and the native oxides were removed using IPA-, HCl-, and NH4OH-based solutions. The process is described in more detail in [13]. After chemical treatment, the sample was loaded into the MBE reactor, and a 30-nm GaAs buffer layer was grown at 470°C. Growth-interrupted MBE [13, 14] at 540°C was used to form single SCQDs in the patterned holes and low density SAQDs randomly positioned outside the patterned area. Finally, the QDs were capped by 20 and 50 nm of GaAs grown at 540°C and at 590°C, respectively, and 50-nm AlGaAs grown at 590°C. The structure was finished by a 10-nm GaAs layer.
Micro-PL (μPL) measurements were performed at various temperatures up to 70 K using a continuous-wave laser emitting at 532 nm for excitation and a microscope objective (numerical aperture = 0.8) for diffraction-limited laser beam focusing and PL light collection. The PL signal was dispersed by a 50-cm spectrometer containing a 1,200 lines/mm grating and detected by a cooled Si CCD camera. The spectral resolution of the setup was 66 μeV.
Results and discussion
We have studied the influence of temperature on the PL properties of single site-controlled InAs QDs fabricated by a combination of soft UV-NIL and MBE. We have shown that the QDs in etched holes emitting at 945 nm have temperature-dependent PL properties similar to the self-assembled QDs grown on planar surface. The PL properties indicate that the defects induced by the patterning do not degrade significantly the emission of the site-controlled QDs. Thus, soft UV-NIL-positioned QDs are considerable candidates for fabricating large-scale optoelectronic devices.

I'm a local.... Great laker!
About 40 minutes south of Green Bay along (the not always) beautiful Lake Michigan.
OK... you are "local" and not "LOCAL". LOL I get it.
Well....compared to say somebody in New Zealand we're dang near next door neighbors!
And compared to say Pluto, I'm practically giving you a piggyback ride. LOL
*high five*
Cleaned up some shelves, floors, countertops around the house. Went to Hallmark for their October Ornament Debut; stood in line for only about 10 minutes and talked with fellow "addicts" (her word, not mine)... just bought the Darth Vader Lego one. Dropped off $10 more in recycling, did some banking and shopping, including some "great deals" (read: so-so sales) at a closing OSH store. Watched football and graded some, even did a little writing. Apparently fell asleep on the couch while some game was on, only to wake up an hour later. Had breakfast items for lunch and dinner and breakfast (weird).
Too late; I already copyrighted these parodies: Rogue Juan, Rogue Won, Rogue Huan, Rogue Wan, Rogue Obi-Wan, Rouge One, Rogue Wand.
In the morning I went to get gas and go for a run, but on the way there I saw a bus from another university that reminded me that Western Washington U. was hosting a cross country meet today, so I went there and watched that and got my run in there.
When I got home, I noticed the neighbor mowing the lawn, and figured I probably should as well while I had the chance as it would probably be raining today. It had been a long time since I mowed it as it had gotten kind of burnt out in the summer. After that, I had time for a quick lunch and a shower before heading off to meet a friend and her family to see a local production of Into the Woods. After that, we went to dinner and walked around the mall for a bit.


text: The Best Way to Answer "Have You Ever Been Fired or Asked to Resign?"Alan Henry12/26/12 4:00amFiled to: Office gpsInterviewsHiringJobsCareersEmploymentQuestionsInterview questionsInterview TipsCommunicationTop2022EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink If you've ever been fired, you know it can be a tricky thing to discuss in future job interviews. It's never a comfortable question, and even if you were laid off, there's always the risk that the interviewer is judging your competency based on your answer. The key to getting past the question is to frame it up in terms of what you've learned—not what happened. AdvertisementCareer counselor Kristin Johnson, at Profession Direction, explains that if you have been fired or asked to resign, you need to prepare for the question long before your interview, even if you don't anticipate being asked. You should assume the company you're interviewing with is asking because they found out that you were (especially if you were a manager or executive), so don't try to lie. Instead explain—in the most professional way possible—the reason why you were let go or asked to leave, taking responsibility for the decision. Then explain what you learned from the situation, and how you've changed since then.For example, if you were asked to leave because you were chronically late, explain that you struggled with time management skills at your last job, and that since then you've embraced a routine (or even a new productivity system) that helps you focus clearly on what's important so you're never distracted and short on time. She also notes to check with your references to make sure they're all on the same page if they're asked about a job where you were fired or let go, just so everyone's delivering a consistent message.
