Stuffed Tomatoes
Weekend Wokking given birth in the home of Wandering Chopsticks is a monthly blogging event that takes on an Iron Chef type feel by celebrating a new single ingredient each month. The secret ingredient this month is ... (insert music crescendo here)... TOMATOES!!! The second informational bit for this blogging event is that there's a different host each month. The host(ess) for the Tomato challenge is Blazing Hot Wok . The beauty of Weekend Wokking is that the secret ingredient does NOT need to be made in a wok, nor does it need to follow an Asian theme. You can if you like, but certainly not a prerequisite for entry. Here is my entry, simple and delicious to Weekend Wokking.
2 Large firm tomatoes
1 1/2 cups diced chicken
1/4 cup blanched toasted almonds
1/2 cup celery
1/2 cup fried crimini mushrooms
mayonnaise to taste
salt and pepper to taste
lettuce or field greens
1. Rather than scoop out the tomatoes, cut them into sixths, leaving the bottom uncut.
2. Push the sixths apart and you can fill them without cutting away any of the fruit.
3. Mix the chicken, almonds, celery, mushrooms, mayonnaise, salt and pepper and fill the tomatoes.
4. Serve on a bed of greens/lettuce.

Ah, this is more like it!
I've been blog hopping and piling on the pounds just reading some of the calorie-laden posts :(
It's time I skipped the sweeties for a bit, and ate my veg for a change. Thanks for a yummy recipe :) - July 13, 2008 at 11:41 AM

Thanks for participating. I made stuffed tomatoes too, but our dishes look very different. Yours looks awesome! That's what I'm totally loving about this event. One ingredient with so many different presentations. And even in this case, similar interpretations, and still totally different presentations.

Did you seriously put celery in here? Who are you and what have you done to my mother?

Psychgrad - alright already, I left out the celery, but it's supposed to have celery. You know me all too well....I hate celery.

Fabulous stuffed tomatoes Giz so healthy and beautifully presented.

A tomato stuffed with chicken salad -- what could be more fitting for these hot summer days. Especially with ripe tomatoes available.
By the way Giz, I'm another one who doesn't care for celery in many dishes. I find the flavor a bit overwhelming. I'm getting better, but I don't make a point of always having it around. - July 13, 2008 at 8:18 PM

Oooh! That's so pretty. I love the presentation.

What a beautiful presentation, looks great. I noticed your pic from Peru....when did you go? I was there in 2005 - great views eh?

Peru? Are you sure that was us? The only travel photos I've posted here are of France. Never been to Peru. But, I did see some friends' pictures from Peru and Machu Picchu and it looked awesome.

Sorry your pic looked like Machu Pichu, but now that I look closer I see it is not. France eh? Going this fall, can't wait.

McClelland Art Gallery displays work by photography students
LINCOLN— An array of 30 photographs debuted in the McClelland Art Gallery on Sunday, Dec. 9 at 7:30 p.m. Students from the photography class taught by Bruce Forbes are displaying three of their best pictures taken during the course. The diversity of the students' personalities is evident in the exhibit, ranging from digital camera work to film, and black and white to color.
"I had never taken a photography class before, and I learned a lot about film," freshman Martha Castro explained. "This has been great experience. It wasn't just learning how to take a good picture, it was finding out who I am as a photographer."
The show will run for three weeks until Dec. 30.
The McClelland Art Gallery is in the Ortner Center on the Union College campus, 3800 S. 48th Street. Enter the campus from Prescott Avenue. The art gallery is free to the public and open daily from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information, contact the Ortner Center at 402.486.2545.

April 10, 2007
WORCESTER, Mass. - Senior designated hitter Mike Pritchard went 4-for-6 at the plate with a pair of homeruns and five RBI to lead the Clark University baseball team to a 19-14 victory over MIT in a NEWMAC slugfest, Tuesday afternoon, at Granger Field. Clark (9-12, 2-3 NEWMAC) snapped a two-game conference losing skid with the win, while MIT (6-7, 3-3) endured its third straight loss after a suprising 3-0 start in league play.
Nick Tapper had four hits and drove in four runs to aid in Clark's 22-hit assault. Kyle Breidenstine and Matt Adams each finished with three hits. Gunnar Hagstrom and Breidenstine knocked in three runs apiece. Timothy Simokonis picked up his third victory, allowing seven runs on 10 hits and fanning four in 6.1 innings on the mound.
Clark took an 8-1 lead after a pair of four run innings. Tapper hit an RBI single to right center and Pritchard's three-run bomb to left field gave the Cougars a 4-0 edge after the first. RBI hits from Breidenstine, Joe Silva, and Tapper and Rob Muollo's bases loaded walk increased their lead to seven in the second.
MIT tacked on two runs in the top of the fourth on Kevin Wheeler's sacrifice fly and a run-producing hit from Chris D'Annunzio to slice the deficit to five. After plating a run in the bottom of the fourth, Clark exploded with a five-run fifth inning that ballooned its advanatge to 14-3. Breidenstine, Tapper and Hagstrom delivered RBI hits in the frame.
The Engineers scored 11 runs over the next four innings to climb back into the tilt, but could not catch the Cougars and their sizable lead. Thomas Phillips hit a solo homerun in the sixth, followed by a run-producing single from Stewart Park and David Nole's two-run single in the seventh.
Muollo and Joe Pasciucco each hit RBI doubles to give Clark two runs (16-7) back, but freshman Jason Rome answered with a two-run knock in the eighth for MIT. An MIT infield error and Pritchard's second round tripper of the day gave the Cougars all the runs they would need in the bottom of the eighth.
The Engineers plated five runs in the ninth, but came up short. Wheeler led off with a single up the middle and came home on pinch-hitter Matt Loper's hit to right field. With two outs and the bases loaded, Jason Witzberger hit a three-run single and scored on an error by the Clark centerfielder to tighten the gap. However, Cougar reliever Erick DiMarco got Nole to groundout to end the game and stunt Tech's last-inning rally. Witzberger had three hits and three RBI to lead MIT. Nole and D'Annunzio each collected three hits, while Stephen Toth (1-1) shouldered the loss for the Engineers.

As has become expected, the race week delights attendees with some memorable social events and this year's regatta was no exception. Yesterday saw many familiar faces in a different guise as they attended a costume party. The entertainment gave everyone something to talk about as pirates, smurfs and cannibals took to the Marmaris stage to give a unique performance.
The crucial last race of the regatta was an inshore, triangular course similar to yesterday's. The breeze kicked in early on and it wasn't long before gusts reached up to 10 knots, perfect conditions for such a pivotal day of racing. The gulf was packed with 179 boats and both the skippers and their crews were ready to put in their best performance.
The highlight of the day was the start of IRC 1 race; 'Boreas' had a great start, but a few meters after the start line the jib halyard broke causing the crew some serious problems and ultimately losing them valuable speed. But thanks to some slick crew work and a great team effort they wasted little time changing the halyard and managed to get themselves back in the game just as rival 'Matmazel' started to get ahead. The diversity of the participants that compete here is what makes this regatta so unique. Anyone from elite sailors to part time enthusiasts can enter and this year has seen sailors from all over Europe gather to experience the thrill of racing amongst some of the industries best.
The last day continued as it had begun, the breeze remained strong all day allowing for some fast paced racing. The first boat to cross the finish line in the IRC 1 class was Matmazel, a great end to the regatta for the team. For the other classes, after four races had been sailed, the final winners of each division were decided… With Matmazel winning the first division of the IRC Class, it was the Turkish, X Machine who won division two. Lettland from Latvia took the top spot in division three and the Ukrainian boat named Ajuga won it's class in division four. Finally it was Kanka from Germany who took the win in division five.
The IRC Charter Class also reached it's conclusion today with White Butterfly taking the win in the first division for the Russians. Division two saw Russians again at the top with Philoxene and division three as won by the Russian team sailing Dans. Cornelian won division four representing Ukraine and finally it was First from Ukraine that came out on top in division five.
The closing ceremony took place later on in the evening where the winners were awarded their prizes after a successful week of sailing. With the trophies received the celebrations began and everyone made the most of their last night in Marmaris.

President Obama fans and Mitt Romney supporters have vastly different tastes in movies, activities and in many cases the brands they purchase. The team at�Compass Labs�realized those difference existed and used Facebook pages for the�Republican and Democratic parties to discover how much Romney vs. Obama fans are alike and different.
President Obama of course is no stranger to Facebook with more than 28.3 million fans while Mitt Romney is still hovering just shy of 6.5 million.
The infographic is broken down by various segments including the age, gender and favorite pages of users.
While Mitt Romney fans like guns, Fox News and Walmart (no surprises there), Obama fans prefer playing computer games,�The Blind Side�and shopping at Target (slightly less evil than Walmart). One common factor? Apparently GOP and Democrats agree that�The Hangover�was a great movie.�
The infographic also showcases the breakdown in political support on Facebook. Not surprisingly Mitt Romney has a slight end with male voters while President Obama takes a commanding lead with female voters.
Look below for further breakdowns including an age analysis for supporters and other interesting facts from the social media campaign trail.
Did any information from the infographic surprise you?

Compared to Albert Einstein, who had some traits that resembles commonly known Autistic traits, and some professor who really were diagnosed with Autism when they were young, Kotomi is showing much more Autistic traits; lack of social interaction, abnormally intense focus on the task of interest, abnormalities in use and understanding of language, and unusual insensitivity to certain sounds. Kotomi definitely qualifies for Broader Autism Phenotype (BAP), and likely also qualify for the subset of BAP, Asperger's Syndrome (AS). The problem of this not being mentioned is the taboo in Asia where admission of any mental problem for someone is almost a death sentence for that person. If Kotomi was real person, the chance of their parents, who seems to have high social status, taking Kotomi to see a mental professional is almost nil, since Kotomi possesses mental capacity to excel in school, and most parents would prefer to avoid the shame and humiliation that will come to themselves in case of positive diagnosis, even if this would mean their child not getting proper social skills training needed for people with AS; In fact, most people in Asia would not even know that such therapy and trainings exists, and it would also be hard for them to access it anyway in Asia. I personally know a case of someone being formally diagnosed with severe Autism in USA, whose grandparents in Korea was in denial of this fact for many years. The social stigma against any mental disorder is enormous in Asia, and Key company would never confirm or deny whether Kotomi has Asperger's Syndrome, as such an admission will very negatively impact the marketability of the character.

Come on everyone
I hope Kotomi's story arc is at least 4 or 5 eps long. Though it's probably shorter than that. ><
Heard somewhere that Fuko's arc was extended, and her arc is the second longest to Nagisa, so the other girls (Kotomi included) probably won't be getting as much attention.

I found the Clannad Visual Fan Book. Loads of pictures and such. Plus vital statistics:
Nagisa: 155 cm, 43 kg 80-55-81 Kyou: 160 cm, 46 kg 82-56-82 Tomoyo: 161 cm, 47 kg 86-57-82 Kotomi: 160 cm, 48 kg 88-58-85 Fuko: 150 cm, 41 kg 78-54-79 Which makes Kotomi the undisputed leader in vital statistics of the main girls (Ryou's isn't listed since she's technically a side character). Her bust size is bigger, but the rest of her figure is more on the curvier side than the rest as well. Fuko.... best to say nothing.

After leaders from more than 40 African countries gathered for President Barack Obama's historic summit, we should not forget that free speech and a free press are economic development issues too.
That message emerged as an important theme in a panel on press freedoms that I was asked to moderate during the nongovernmental events that led up to the summit.
The panel was co-sponsored by the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights and the New York-based Committee to Protect Journalists, of which I happen to be a board member.
But I also thought about some of the Africans who were not there, especially those who were sitting in a prison somewhere for the alleged "crime" of doing their jobs as journalists.
Ethiopian photojournalist Aziza Mohamed, for example, had been in custody in the Addis Ababa police headquarters without charges since mid-July, when she was arrested while covering Muslim protests.
Nine other journalists, including some from a popular Ethiopian blogging collective called Zone 9 (Motto: "We Blog Because We Care!") were jailed in mid-April under that country's overly broad anti-terrorism law.
Ethiopia is the second-worst jailer of journalists in the continent, according to CPJ, with at least 17 journalists incarcerated, including Aziza. Eritrea leads with 22, which is an estimate since the government won't reveal their locations or conditions.
Egypt shocked the world when it sentenced three Al-Jazeera journalists to between seven and 10 years in prison, again for doing their jobs.
In mid-July, a court in Swaziland sentenced editor Bheki Makhubu to two years in prison for articles in his magazine criticizing the kingdom's chief justice.
An email to me from his wife, Fikile Makhubu, ended, "Please don't allow the ink to dry up. Don't take the pen away."
With those tragedies in mind, the Africa summit reminded me of salesmen at a big auto show: They might not sell you a car, but they want to alert you to the possibilities — and stir your imagination.
Africa offers many possibilities. The summit aimed to change the narrative built up by such bad news as the West African Ebola outbreak and terrorism against schoolchildren by Boko Haram.
Most of the 10 fastest-growing economies are in Africa, the Obama administration points out. That's partly because they started so low. But huge investments by China in trade and infrastructure also spurred development, as it seeks to become the dominant power on the continent.
I get that and largely applaud it. After visiting close to a dozen African countries, I know the continent to be much more than the world's biggest charity case. Many of its governments are like those of Senegal, Botswana, Namibia or South Africa, encouragingly transparent with robust economic potential, despite poverty-induced problems.
But it is important for all governments to understand that freedom of speech, press and the Internet are good for development as well as human rights.
George W. Bush astonished the world and became a hero in Africa for launching an emergency AIDS relief plan in 2003. The program has since spent about $60 billion and saved countless lives. Obama's summit aims to build on that medical aid with economic trade.
Besides, African leaders need better examples than China for how freedom unleashes creative enterprise better than autocratic regimes do.
"American traditions of transparency, accountability, rule of law (and) property rights are ingredients that are critical to unlocking Africa's future," Obama told The Economist.
The summit provides a historic stage on which to "announce" what already was widely known: close to $1 billion worth of new business deals and billions more in loan guarantees to U.S. companies. Much of that is directed at a signature Obama administration project, Power Africa, to electrify the continent.
But in the rush to develop African economies, the administration needs to avoid easing pressure off African governments to be accountable and defend human rights, including women's rights and gay rights.
To its credit, the Obama administration excluded Zimbabwe, Eritrea, Sudan and the Central African Republic from the summit for violations of human rights and accountability standards of the African Union. It also withdrew aid recently from Swaziland for rights abuses. Carrots and sticks matter. When we don't approve of what other countries do, we should stop helping them do it.

Damn!! Let's pray for them both.
Say It Ain't SO!!! Damn is this is true, that's really sad. Porn star Brian Pumper is said to have HIV, that he got from Montana Fishburne aka Chippy D.
The Black Media confirmed — Sources have revealed that Brian Pumper has contracted the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) from Montana Fishburne. No comment has been released by either party. The HIV test results leaked from a doctors office located in Santa Monica, California by a nurse who slept with Brian Pumper and contracted the disease.

Books: Blood and Politics
Leonard Zeskind explains the history of the white nationalist movement from the margins to the mainstream.
For the past 40 years, white supremacists have lurked beyond the sidelines of American politics, fantasizing about power yet shunning the public eye. In this 600-page doorstop, Leonard Zeskind, a former factory worker and labor organizer who has become a single-minded watchdog of the racist right, offers a blinding dose of sunlight.
Blood and Politics considers contemporary Klansmen, neo-Nazis, and militia members and argues that they are in fact a single movement with a common—if fractious—history. Zeskind tells this story largely through the careers of the dueling "godfathers" of the late-20th-century extreme right, Willis Carto and William Pierce. Since the mid-'60s, Carto has sought to put a respectable face on white nationalism and infiltrate the mainstream with his benign-sounding Liberty Lobby. His archrival, Pierce, author of race-war novel The Turner Diaries, insisted on violent revolution. (He died in 2002.) The two even disagreed on fundamentals such as Holocaust revisionism: Carto is a denier; Pierce hailed the Holocaust as a portent of things to come. Pierce's book inspired the Oklahoma City bombing and other acts of mayhem, but his National Alliance party crumbled soon after his death. Carto, now in his 80s, has seen his front groups splintered by a series of self-inflicted legal defeats.
Against this backdrop of bickering and violent outbursts, it might be hard to tell if white supremacists are frightening, pitiful, or both. However, Zeskind is emphatic that they should not be written off. He is particularly concerned with their influence on Republican politics. Though he is correct that the social forces and demographic shifts that animate hate groups have also fueled cultural conservatism, he often blurs the meaningful distinctions between the racialist fringe and white Republicans who cynically play racial politics.
Zeskind's tome doesn't attempt to predict the white supremacists' next move. Yet looking at their history, it's clear that current conditions—immigration, recession, and, of course, a popular black president—could reinvigorate their quest for an impossible future.

Editor's note: the version of this story that ran in this week's issue of The Sun incorrectly quoted SPD Police Chief Jim Smith as saying the police department seized more than 2-and-a-half pounds of meth. Chief Smith originally said 3-and-a-half pounds of meth was confiscated. The online version below has been corrected. The Sun regrets this typographical error.
A tip to local law enforcement last month led to a drug bust with a seizure of more than 3 pounds of methamphetamine.
This year's entrepreneur of the year started her business more than 10 years ago and has grown her space into a Springfield icon.
Nancy Carney, owner of Nancy's Place on Main Street, said she was surprised to find out she won the award during the Springfield-Washington County Chamber of Commerce's annual gala.
"I was shocked and very humbled," Carney said, "because I don't like being honored, and that's just not my thing, but I was very proud to get it. It was a privilege, that's for sure."
Staff Report
The families of some people who have donated items to the former St. Catharine College could soon receive those items back.
This year, the Springfield-Washington County Chamber of Commerce presented the agriculture achievement award to someone very special, Dennis Morgeson
According to sister Claire McGowan, who presented Morgeson with the award, he is someone who has served the community with his courses on gardening.
"If you are a county resident who has questions about or problems with your garden, your landscape or your woodlands, he's always the one to call for reliable guidance and friendly encouragement," McGowan said.
Lines of people wearing green T-shirts that read "Justice for Crystal and Bobby" sat silently in a Washington County courtroom last week as family members of the slain couple waited to see the accused murderer arraigned on another charge.
The Washington County Commanderettes grabbed an early 3-0 lead and never trailed on their way to an 11-5 victory over Pulaski County Thursday.
Commanderette head coach Christy Baker said she was very pleased with her team's performance against a good Maroons team.
"I was pleased with our defense, especially since we have a few ladies in new positions," Baker said.
The Washington County Extension Office has been serving farmers, their families, and this community for 87 years. In January 2018, it will have a new building to call home.
A groundbreaking ceremony to kick off the construction of a new 9,300-square-foot extension office in the industrial park off KY 555 will happen next Thursday at 10 a.m. The public is encouraged to attend.
"We'll have a lot more space, which is what we've needed," Family and Consumer Science Agent Cabrina Buckman said.
Clouds of color are forecasted in the near future.
St. Dominic School will host its annual St. Dominic PTO Color Run 5k on March 25.
According to Amanda Carney, the run, which is now in its second year, is designed to raise money for the school's parent teacher organization.
Instructors at North Washington and Washington County Elementary schools are working hard to prepare young children and parents for the school years ahead.
Wendy Chesser, the Family Resource and Youth Services Director at NWS, said the cradle school programs the district's been hosting for several years emphasizes that parents are a child's first and best teacher.
"It helps parents and students get ready for kindergarten or preschool," Chesser said.
A former assistant principal at North Washington School has died.
Brock Sims, 35, who was the assistant principal at NWS from 2011-15, passed away last week after a short illness. He was working as the principal of South Irvine P/K Center in Estill County. Funeral services were conducted on Tuesday.

December 10, 1734- My fifth great grandparents, John Drury and Susannah Hayden, are married at the Jesuit Missions in St. Mary's county, Maryland, by Father Whitgreave.
The Worland Family in America and Beyond
I began my life in the Puget Sound area of Washington State, on an island filled with forests and wild rhododendrons. I was separated from my Worland family there at an early age. Recently, I was reunited with my family and learned of my heritage. And so, this journey to know my ancestors began. The Worlands, Gideons, Newtons, Conards... they were the colonists, the settlers, the pioneers. They fought in the American Revolution, the War of 1812, the Civil War. This is their story, and the story of a nation. -Deci Worland MacKinnon

Hello! I was doing a blog search for Puget Sound genealogy blogs and your blog was the only one listed. :)I was born in Olympia, WA and grew up in Tumwater.
I would like to eventually create a list of local genealogy blogs as I live in Port Orchard, WA. I have a list of genealogists (worldwide) on Twitter that feeds a free genealogy paper. It's called The Genealogists #Genealogy Daily.

STS-110 Shuttle Mission Imagery | |
high res (0.8 M) low res (42 K) |
STS110-E-6058 (17 April 2002) --- This is one of a series of digital still images of the International Space Station (ISS) recorded by the STS-110 crew members on board the Space Shuttle Atlantis following the undocking of the two spacecraft some 247 statute miles above the North Atlantic. Atlantis pulled away from the complex at 1:31 p.m. (CDT). After more than a week of joint operations between the shuttle and station crews, astronaut Stephen N. Frick, pilot, backed Atlantis away to a distance of about 400 feet in front of the station, where he began a 1 1/4 lap flyaround of the ISS, newly equipped with the 27,000 pound S0 (S-zero) truss, visible in this series of images. S0 is the first segment of a truss structure which will ultimately expand the station to the length of a football field. |

Extortionists attack iBetX.com
Another gambling site suffers DDoS assault
iBetX, the UK-based online betting exchange, has become the latest online bookmaker to be targeted by cyber extortionists.
The company's website was temporarily off line from Thursday evening (15 April) until early Friday morning (16 April) as a result of a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack which flooded the site with spurious requests.
In recent weeks several major British bookmakers havecome under similar attacks: they include William Hill, Totalbet, UKbetting and Sporting Options. None are believed to have given in to demands.
iBetX.com director Imraan Malik maintained this common front: "The bottom line is that we will not give into extortion and we will work with the UK National High-Tech Crime Unit to safe guard our business and help trace and track down the perpetrators."
iBetX is assuring subscribers that their personal details remain safe despite the attack, which did not affect the integrity of its site. "Furthermore, there was no material loss to the business nor did any customer suffer any loss," it added. ®

The count numbered as many as 55 EA staffers, according to a regularly reliable source, one who tells us that the cuts might also mean at least one casualty on the software side: Need For Speed for the PlayStation Portable.The last entry in the long-running driving series, Need For Speed: Undercover, was called out as a likely underperformer by analysts following disappointing results. It wouldn't be hard to imagine that if sales of the console versions of NFS: Undercover were disappointing that sales of the PSP version, handled by fellow Vancouverites Piranha Games, would be any better. If true, the series may have fallen in line with EA's plans to cut "SKUs from the bottom levels of profitability."EA CEO John Riccitiello had voiced his complaints about the status of the series, calling Undercover's predecessor Need For Speed: Pro Street just "okay." Following Pro Street, the Need For Speed team was staffed up, split and given longer development cycles on the games, a decision that may have proven more costly than beneficial.

Pus in urine sample08/26/2008 |
2 weeks ago I had severe pain in left kidney area. I visited doctor who put me on penicillin and asked for a urine sample. I have now been told that there is pus in my urine sample and I must have an urgent ultrasound scan, as well as give a fasting blood sample. What can this mean?Thanks
Pain in the region of the kidney (flank) with pus in the urine (I assume this refers to white cells seen on urine exam) could be due to various causes, the common ones being infection or stones. You have not mentioned whether you have any other symptoms such as difficulty urinating (pain, burning, frequency, urgency, straining o to void, blood in the urine, etc.). The presence of pus cells in the urine by itself does not always mean infection, but the urine culture report should be able to tell you that better.
Imaging of the kidneys would be required to evaluate for stones, obstruction or rarely a kidney mass (especially if there is associated blood in the urine). This is commonly done with a CT scan or ultrasound (as suggested by your physician). All the above information would need to be reviewed in the context of your clinical situation by your physician or urologist (unless the physician you are seeing now is a urologist), who would then be able to discuss the options for further evaluation/treatment. I hope the information in this reply atleast gives you a general overview of some of the common clinical possibilities associated with your symptoms.

This worked so wel l for me because of the simplicity of the meals, preparing the food and taking it to work or just with you thruout the day. I like the fact that you can start seeing the weight dropping quickly and it's healthy. Also he has a maintance plan to assist you with keeping the weight off. I feel like i have my own personal coach.
Read MoreMakes losing weight easy. Provides meal ideas and recipes
Read MoreI purchased the Extreme Fat Smash Diet as well as the Fat Smash Diet. Fast delivery and books arrived in great shape. I love the way the book is written - barney style. I also love the fact that you can switch a number of the meals around. I am sold. Portion control and exercise WILL make you lose weight!
Read MoreThis is a great concept and it does work. I lost 4 pounds the first week. However, I'm not a lover of brown rice or beans and after the first week, I couldn't stomach anymore. Needless to say, I didn't stay on the diet. I wish there were alternatives for people who don't eat or can't eat brown rice and beans. If you love brown rice and beans, this is the diet for you, because you eat it every day all day. Other than that, I'd say he's right on point with this Extreme Fat Smash Diet.
Read Morethis book was quick and easy to read. right to the point not alot of extra bla, bla bla to get through
Read MoreGreat Book with a lot of valuable information. the price is reasonable as well. the cover does not look like that when you get it.
Read MoreI just finished week 3 and have lost 14 lbs! I have been overweight for 3 years, and have never been able to stick with a diet. I want to lose about 30 more lbs, so I will repeat week "cycles"until I do. I like how your meals are laid out every day,so I just get my food ready for the next day when I am packing the rest of my families lunches the day before. Easy to follow, never hungry, very healthy food. My only question is what is dirty rice? He recommends it or brown rice, and the only dirty rice I know of is a fattening southern dish....give this diet a try, it is awesome!!!
Read MoreLose 12 pounds in 3 weeks claims the book. And after reviewing it, I believe it just might be possible. Written by the author of last year's "The Fat Smash Diet," the idea of this seems to be, if you want big results, you'll have to push yourself beyond normal limits to attain them. Once again, readers will find Dr. Smith's easy and friendly writing style. At the start of the book, you find out your "dieting type" and then quickly go from there. Since the book is set up for you to lose 12 pounds in 3 weeks, its organized in three 1 week cycles, which is 21 days. For each day, there is a menu plan (four meals a day) and a journal page you to write on. Know too that the exercise recommended each day is cardio. Other goodies include recipes, which easily make up about a third of the book, and a handy appendix ends the book (which contains useful info about BMI's, how to read food labels, etc.). All in all, I feel like this is a great book that is well laid out and very user friendly. One caveat though. Following the plan may not be easy at times, and the book will tell you this outright. Nonetheless, it should benefit many who struggle with their weight loss demons. Also suggest "The Sixty-Second Motivator" for readers who have trouble sticking with a weight loss plan.
Read MoreThis book is meant to be for someone who has already been on the Fat Smash Diet so I was a bit disappointed. I now have to get the other book to try that one first. But it seems like a diet worth looking into..

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — A swarm of butterflies have been making their way through New Jersey in recent days.
Experts say some ecological switch apparently got flicked somewhere, because red admiral butterflies apparently decided to leave the warmer confines of the South and migrate north.
And many of them seem to be hanging out in New Jersey.
It's believed that a change in temperatures or in the length of day likely served as the basis for the migratory trigger.
The typical lifespan of an adult butterfly is three months. But because many of these butterflies have flown hundreds of miles from their likely birthplaces in Georgia or the Carolinas, it's unclear how much longer the immigrants fluttering outside will last.

Miss you, dear Mom…you left our lives so long ago, And well before you even had a chance to know The sweet, now grown, grand kids so little when you left… In all these forty-three plus years I've been bereft, Living each day to know the special things you missed…of Doing without your presence and embracing love… Although, I know you're watching, loving from above. © Sandra M.

Dear Mom, I looked for you today. I found you in the smell of coffee, as I passed our favorite café. I felt you in the cool breeze, that traveled fiercely up my spine. I put my face toward the sky and found you in the warm sunshine. I looked for you today, but I didn't have to look far. When I lifted my head up high, I found you in the stars. I will never stop looking, because I know you're always around. I know you have never left me, you're just waiting to be found. May 9, 2016

Without you, the days are so long & sometimes it's hard to just carry on. You gave life & love to all things The joy of giving was what you would bring. I see your smile inside my head, It just isn't fair that you have to be dead. I know you suffered though all the while You held your head high & even would smile. As I watched you go through it, I always had hope, Even when we came to the end of the rope. Everything that we went through Helped make us closer & more loving too. Through ups & downs you always were strong Even when you knew you didn't have long. Life can be kind & cruel in the same, But you will live on forever because of loves eternal flame.

The Old Salt was a special man who came along in a time when he was needed most. A time that is now gone forever. When men believed and sacrificed, when hero's walked the earth in mass. When patriotism was not just a word but, by what men lived and judged the worth of each, a man who lived a life most of us cannot comprehend. An era now gone as this warriors tour of duty ends at this station, and begins anew in the heavenly fleet. Sail on Sailor into your unaccompanied tour, we salute you. What greater honor, that when a man moves forward, he leaves behind in each of us the best of what he was. A defender, protector, supporter, victor, a warrior, the last of the breed from an era when ships were made of wood and men were made of steel. The Old Salt has reported for duty that takes him away from us for now. Those of us who remain behind, remember, and will continue to remember, because he now resides forever in our hearts. As I look up at night, I envision The Old Salt, a beret draped just above the eye, as he draws upon his pipe, quietly he waits. The guardian of heaven's gate.

I cannot get into heaven God I have tried! Suicide is a double edge sword Especially when you survive! Walking the streets at night Dazed and confused Longing to be loved Wondering... When is Mum, coming for me? "Does she still love me?" "Does she still care?" "Does she still think of me?" "Does she wonder, where I am?" I want her to come find me I want her to say she 'loves me' I want her to comfort me I want her to take me home And keep me safe And not forget hat I exist Like the way she treats me now I wish God Could make my Mum Magically appear Making this hellish nightmare On the street Disappear! "Send my Mum please!" So, all this can end! Before this last ray of hope Diminishes for good! I don't want to become The walking dead Forever forgotten as if I was never born! For this is the cruel, harsh reality Of living life, feeling unloved Uncared for, abandoned, Left to fend for my own A dangerous killer inside me Eating away, at my soul Something, no one can see As I suffer in silence My insides crippling! Lost, alone and frightened Weeping on a dirty Graffiti park bench Dirty tears Rolling down my cheeks Stuffing newspapers under my jumper To keep myself warm "What am I going to do?" "Will I make it through the night?" "Will I get raped and beaten?" "Will I be left for dead?" "Will I survive To see another day? "Is my life worth living?" Please God, I beg of you Have mercy now Please show me the way!

My heart is saddened, you left to soon… Please come back to us, he started talking to the moon… His heart can't take the pain, he is suffering, he needs you… He loves you so much & I love you to… Mom, why did this happen to you… Why did you have to pass away, everyone else who took you for granted are fools… We cherished & loved you so much & we still do… He is an empty soul & all happiness is gone, because you are too… Too early for your time & age… Our hearts are trapped in a small cage… Ready to burst & blow up with grief… All hope faith & joy gone with our belief… This world is nothing without your love… Scattered pieces of your memory remains, all to aside it was shoved… People are cruel & mean to have taken every single thing that reminded us of you… If it was us that could decide we would have been able to keep all till even the last shoe… We are torn; broken & only time can heal they say… Biggest load of bull*****they said on that day… Forever your memory & soul will be within our hearts & mind… Even in the dark, you were the one who always shined… Mom, we love you… We hope that you are safe wherever you are… Even though we still sit with scars… Just never forget us, not like all the others have forgotten you & moved on… It's only been two weeks but your soul will remain… In our hearts you will always stay… *Inspired by my mother in law who passed away two weeks ago*

For my Dad and Mom (Dorothy) on Fathers Day. Albin J. Gruhn who passed away at the age of 94 years young. I Love You Dad and I am missing you so much! Robert When Albin Gruhn got his card from the loggers union in 1934 after starting work for a Humboldt County lumber company, he never suspected that he was beginning what would become a lifelong career in California's labor movement. He went straight from high school to the lumber mills of Hammond Lumber Co. in Samoa and became a member of the Lumber and Sawmill Workers Union. A year later, in 1935, Mr. Gruhn was swept up in a bloody strike over poor working conditions that resulted in the deaths of three union workers. He spent 36 years as President of the California Labor Federation, AFL-CIO, helping build the organization into a political and social powerhouse in the state. "Few can match Al Gruhn's devotion to working men and women," said Art Pulaski, labor federation's executive secretary-treasurer. "Driven by his passion for justice in the workplace, Al's career has been an inspiration for all of us. He never backed down from a fight." He was blacklisted by the lumber companies and joined the Laborers' Union, becoming secretary of the Eureka Federated Trades and Labor Council at the age of 22. In 1940, he was elected district vice president of the state labor federation and took over as the organization's President in 1960. He held that job until his retirement in 1996. In 1972 he became a founding officer, and ultimately president emeritus, of the Consumer Federation of California. "Al was a great pioneer of the consumer movement in California," said Jim Gordon, the federation's president. "Al Gruhn always had the interests of consumers and working people in his heart. He built bridges between the consumer movement and our allies in organized labor and in the community." Mr. Gruhn served on a number of state and local commissions, accepting appointments from Govs. Earl Warren, Goodwin Knight, Edmund G. "Pat" Brown, George Deukmejian and Jerry Brown. He was a member from 1964 to 1971 of the California Constitution Revision Commission. "The union movement was the cause of his life," Mr. Gruhn's son Robert said when his father retired at age 81, speakers at his retirement dinner included the Rev. Jesse Jackson, then-Lt. Gov. Gray Davis and current U.S. Secretary of Labor, Hilda Solis, who called Mr. Gruhn her "godfather" for his career advice. Read more about my Dad at "Google Search"

Even though you've been dead for two years, I still miss you terribly. While you were alive, I meant a lot to you and you meant a lot to me. You were an excellent mother and that is certainly true. When it came to having a mom, I was proud to have you. I still miss you terribly even though it has been twenty-seven months since you died. Yesterday I was feeling pretty sad about your death and I damn nearly cried. But I am feeling some better than I did just one year before. I still miss you terribly because you're not around anymore. [Dedicated to Agnes Johnson (1948-2013) who passed away on March 6, 2013.]

Dropped out of school At an early age Lived on the streets Because, I disgusted my mother She thought I was a poor example Of true Christian beliefs At an early age She religiously drummed into me 'blood is thicker than water' And yet, Here I am today confused, lonely and hungry No one protecting me No friends No family No home to go too Just, peoples eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth mentality Praying for the sun to shine To feel some warmth again! Sun rays of hope, lighting me up To live through this darkness without fear With a heart full of faith No matter what happens to me, now! If only I could drink my salty tears It would sustain me for a lifetime Your tears are worth nothing, around here You're classed as weak and venerable Only attracting death Your life worth nothing! Save me from myself I am my best friend I am my worst enemy My prayers and dreams Lost in the wind Blowing around like autumn leaves The rain washing them away Down the drain into the sewage Rolling with the seasons Year after year Survival for the fittest! Surviving on the love Hidden, inside me Being my strength and guide My personal lifeline In surviving this crazy world We all live in
Mom you're so lovely! Like my lil' bunny! Your arms are fluffy and soft; Want to hold you more; Makes me feel secure; With your hands all of me oft, Mom you're so cuddly! Want you beside me! Wake me up a lil' later; Miss you so by then; Like I miss you when My eyes close and you're not there. * overheard my niece talking to her Mom as she was put to bed :)) 9/1/14

When I was born you took me in your arms, wrap me in a blanket, took me home, and kept me from all harm. You shared with me so much love and kindness this is why I miss you mom. As I grew taller you kept me safe with your prayers from all danger and harm, this is why I miss you. As I became older when I was sad you would take me in your arms and rock me until I was glad, and my tears went away. When I became of age and ready to go out in the world to follow my dreams, you had already taught me right from wrong. This is why I will miss you mama. Now that I am grown, on my own and you have left to go home to be with Christ, mama I will miss you. Christ will keep you safe in his arms from all harm, but I still love and miss you mama.

Remembering the songs you used to sing to us at night....zzzz And now I must, "Get on with it", as you would like to say. Just had to say I Love You, because it's Mothers Day. By Johanne R. Deschamps

I've been fightin' the pains since you passed away It still feels unreal, I ask God for some brighter days and help us heal, See we need him to keep us strong, Me & Den your only 2 seeds and we have to prolong & have to hold on, In a messed up society, Like Granny you're a sweet lady who showered us with love & you guided me, Through the struggles of a young man growin'up, My momma, You brought smiles on my jail visits when you we're showin' up, So i'm gonna' miss the twinle in your brown eyes and when you smile back, You know we think about you day & night and I need my best pal back, So I will illustrate my love like yours, With the help of the Lord, I will breed it in your grandkids and we love & miss you forever more.

I stopped to see you at your grave today. I thought and wondered just what to say... As I dug around and cleaned your stone. I suddenly felt so very alone. I played the songs on my radio, Which played a part in your life. Upon your stone it only says, Beloved Wife. Six children you had, no, the seventh went home. I just bet you're now holding, you're not alone. I tried to remember the last memory I had. But I kept returning to all that was sad. I still remember that day you died... I held your hand as my father cried. So many things I used to do, Like steal a flower and give it to you. Where did you get that, Oh, never mind. The thoughts that you had were so very kind. You were there when I was good. You were there when I was bad. You corrected me the times when you should. And now my heart is oh so sad. I talked to you about the cancer in dad; His lung removed and gall bladder he had. The more I thought about all these things, The more my heart broke. A song came on that dad sang to you, And as it did I sang it too. I looked around for a flower to steal And as I did my head began to reel. My heart it sank to fathoms below, I fell to my knees and wept so low. The memories are all that I have, but for my tears, My only salve. I bent and kissed the plaque, on the cross. I wondered if I'd find my way to you or be lost. I thought of the first memory of mine, In a hospital, I was two and doing fine. The scarlet fever was gone and you and dad came for me. I was so happy, as happy as can be. I dusted the dirt away and took a hand full home. I thought of when I might die and if I'd be alone. My heart it ached and my eyes they wept, I saw as I was watching with in my mind, You and dad coming for me, My feet, still they kept. Your arms open wide and your faces so kind... And again I wept... Four years it will be that you've been away. There is nothing more I can do or say. I love you and miss you, my Beloved Mother. Though dad has remarried, there will be no other... I long to see you once again, and hold you in my arms. In a place where there are no tears, I know I will cry... For I will cry tears of joy to see you again. Again my heart breaks and again I weep. Oh, mom I miss you, but the memories I'll keep... (Mom has been gone since 1996. Dad died almost ten years later. I still hurt inside.)

I shed a tear... Each morning I open my eyes and get ready to wake you up. I clear my eyes and shed a tear. I make me tea you coffee. I shed a tear. I tell you it's time to wake up it's time to start your day. I shed a tear. I pull you up place the walker there for you to grab. I shed a tear. Throughout the day your eyes are lost. You no longer want to move. No longer want to be here the pain is over for you. I'm still here. I still make my tea no coffee. I still wake up each day and remember you my mother my pain is still here. I shed a tear.

A letter to my mom if she could read it. I am sorry for the times I would not listen to you and would talk back. I loved all the times we spent together. We had so much fun together you were a great mom and you were my best friend. Some days I ask god why he let you get so sick but I realize its not gods fault that you're sick it's just life and some times bad things happen. Know one knows why it happened but it happened for a reason. Things happen and know one knows why it does we just have to deal with it. I miss you mom a lot some times I cry at night because I miss you so much. I just wish you could come home. It hurts to see you so sick I wish it could all go away. Hope one day you come home I all ways try to go see you at the hospital at least twice a week. Mom I am really sorry how I wouldn't listen and I talked back. I wish we could turn back time and you wouldn't be sick. I cry just by writing this letter to you. I just can't believe you might not be able to ever come home. You won't be able to see me go to prom or get married if I ever do. Mom I just want you home but that won't happen you're to sick and I hope a miracle happens and you get better and come home. Some days I feel like I cant make it through the day but I just remember your spirit and love will all ways be with me every day and you're always in my heart. I all ways cry when I think about you. When you were sick I dyed my hair purple, blue, hot pink, red, and aqua. People still make fun of me and say I am weird but it's ok. There is so much things I want to say but I don't know how to just know I am sorry for how I treated you. I MISS YOU MOM AND LOVE YOU!!

MOTHERS The cycle of life would have ceased to exist, if there were no mothers. Hard working they are, Good discipliners they are, Doctors and caregivers they are. Praises I give to all mothers through all their days, They've raised and fed the world always. Light they are to the darkness of life, To husbands they've become good wives. All mothers should be honored, and venerated, For these days they have been daunted. Husband or Wife? Yes!! You can get another, But you can't get another mother. So let's know and show our gratitude, And let their very reward be in multitude.

You were always there for me from day one, Carrying me around like I was your favourite son. Telling me you loved me from day to night, Telling me that I was such a charming delight. But now your gone what can I do? I never got the chance to tell you I love you, So now I'm gonna say... Mumma you are my super hero, I've loved you since you were zero. You are my shooting star, And I know you really aint that far. But now I get the chance to say, I love you mumma so please stay. I remember you from when I was young, Always singing the words you sung. They were always so magical, The way you sung them was so classical. The way you sounded I will always adore, But now your gone I can't sing them no more... Mumma you are my super hero, I've loved you since I was zero. You are my shooting star, And I know you really aint that far. But now I get the chance to say, I love you mumma so please stay.

From the journey i took Away from you, It was difficult to look For me at you. Life took a sharp turn More than expected, It made my emotions to churn With sweet-n-sour berries i have ever tasted. Your worries always become a part of my tension, But this time I did not like this kind of sensation. Forgive me mom For all I did in my past, Away from home I ensure my promises will last. The moment I raised my hand To wade good bye, My throat choked like water tunnel filled with sand. I said I will be fine but this time it was a lie. Oh god why you created emotions They just leave the thinking process in mist Life is already full of tentions Yet you made them exist. In this period of isolation we both are in We try focusing our mind on our aim But there is still commotion as our heart is pain Yet we try to be practical but these feelings forces us to condemn. Finally we both bring our lives back on track Because we both have careers to look upon With fingers crossed we promise not to look back Yet the memories in our heart forces us to look at it on and on....

After 32 years, Katie Callaway Hall thought she had put away the horrible things that Phillip Garrido did to her during eight hours of terror long ago. But when the man accused of kidnapping and raping Jaycee Dugard for 18 years locked eyes with Hall in a California courtroom, it all came rushing back.
"It took me by total surprise, my reaction, and I can't even explain why — except to tell you on some deep, subconscious level, I reacted to this man in a way I didn't expect to," Hall told TODAY's Meredith Vieira Friday from Sacramento, Calif.
"I expected to be really strong and to go in there and be really strong and to face him," Hall said.
Instead, everything that Garrido had done to her came rushing back.
Face from the past
A day earlier, Hall and her husband, Jim Hall, had attended Garrido's first court hearing on the Dugard charges in Placerville, Calif. Hall said she went to the hearing because she wants to make sure that Garrido spends the rest of his life in jail.
When Garrido was brought into the courtroom, his eyes caught Hall's and locked with them. In 1977, when he was convicted of raping Hall over eight hours in a rented storage unit, she had not been able to look him in the face. On Thursday, she returned his baleful glare.
Video: Jaycee Dugard: A Dateline investigation "It was a hard glare," she said. "He focused in on me and I focused in on him. It was a real hard glare."
Hall said that her reaction took her by surprise.
"I just thought I'd look at him in victory: 'You jerk. I survived. You're going down.'
"But it hit me completely different," she said. "I almost broke down. I started tearing up. I couldn't understand why. I couldn't control it. I hope that that's not going to happen next time. I hope I got that initial meeting out of the way and now I know what to expect."
Pandora's box reopens
It was, Hall said, like being a victim all over again.
Stories from
- Craig Strickland's Widow on Their Last Conversation: 'He Walked Out the Door, Looked at Me and Said, "I Love You"'
- Joe Jonas Packs on PDA with Former Top Model Contestant Jessica Serfaty
- White House Responds to Petition to Pardon Making a Murderer Subjects Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey
- Family of Sandy Hook Victim Commends Florida Atlantic University for Firing Professor Who Questioned Massacre
- Kylie Jenner's Lip Kit Is Ruining Lives (According to the Internet, Anyway)
"I thought this chapter was closed. I pretty much closed it and got on with my life," Hall said. "It's always been just under the surface of my life, and I thought this was in its box and put away. But this Pandora 's box is open for me, and now I'm dealing with it again on a different level, like I've been victimized myself."
Slideshow: Captive's tale Hall was also surprised to find that she felt somehow responsible for what happened to Dugard, whom Garrido is charged with kidnapping in 1991, three years after he was paroled after serving 11 years of a 50-year sentence for kidnapping and raping Hall. Dugard was just 11 when she was snatched from in front of her home in South Lake Tahoe, Calif. Over the next 18 years, until her rescue this summer, she was held in a compound of tents and shacks behind Garrido's home, where police say she was raped constantly and gave birth to two daughters.
"I know that what happened to Jaycee is not my fault, but I have to live with this every day now," Hall told Vieira. "What he did to Jaycee, what he did to this little girl, because I wasn't vigilant enough to keep track of him after he was paroled? ... I just can't explain it.
"I feel on some level, not responsible, but I feel that I just should have done more. It's something I'm going to have to live with."
'Go away, little girl'
Vieira pointed out that Hall did everything she could. She was 25 when Garrido offered a ride and she ended up hog-tied and held captive in a storage unit outfitted with mattress-padded walls. For eight hours, she was brutally raped and assaulted before being saved when a police officer noticed a broken lock at the storage facility and found her.
Hall hadn't even been told that a federal parole board had let Garrido out of prison. Authorities have since said that in 1988, parole standards were more lax than they are today — but no one has explained why Hall wasn't notified of the parole hearing and wasn't asked to testify.
Hall told Vieira that at the time Garrido was convicted 32 years ago, authorities treated her as if her opinions didn't matter.
"They were extremely dismissive," Hall said. "They pretty much told me, 'Go away, little girl. Have a nice life. We'll watch him. Don't worry, there's nothing you can do.' And I had to trust them and pretty much just have to look out for myself, and yes, I had to look over my shoulder my whole life."
But Hall is determined not to let Garrido win.
"I'm just doing what I need to do, which is to follow this case carefully, be there seeing with my own eyes, and make sure this man is put away forever. That's my intent," she told Vieira.
"I hope that gives me closure, I really do. I'm sure it will."

Description: The story of Peter Parker, an outcast high schooler who was abandoned by his parents as a boy, leaving him to be raised by his Uncle Ben and Aunt May. Like most teenagers, Peter is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. Peter is also finding his way with his first high school crush, Gwen Stacy, and together, they struggle with love, commitment, and secrets. As Peter discovers a mysterious briefcase that belonged to his father, he begins a quest to understand his parents' disappearance - leading him directly to Oscorp and the lab of Dr. Curt Connors, his father's former partner. As Spider-Man is set on a collision course with Connors' alter-ego, The Lizard, Peter will make life-altering choices to use his powers and shape his destiny to become a hero.
