This election has certainly been the poster child for how an election SHOULDN'T BE CONDUCTED. Outright lies, distortions and negatism by the Republicans has been beyond shameful. It certainly cannot bolster or entice democracy around the world. Watching rallies where masses are gathered and someone shouting 'kill him', why it's a dictator's worst nightmare.
Former President Clinton recently said, " We have to elect a President who will rebuild the American dream, repair a badly shattered financial system, and restore American's standing in the world. And that's the job. Every four years when the American people elect a President they not only vote for a person, they say what they believe the job is. That IS the job. And this country is in a mess. Almost no new jobs, incomes declining, health care cost is doubled, college cost up 75 %, credit card debt going through the roof, home mortgages cratering, home values cratering, the price of gasoline, food and utilities going up. And look at the mess that we have in our finacial system. Compare that to what happened before. It wasn't like this... This is not accidental folks. You know, where I grew up in Arkansas we had a saying that, if you find a turtle on a fence post, chances are it didn't get there by accident. It did not have to be this way. It matters who the President is, it matters what the decisions are, it matters what the policies are...."
And to my way of thinking, the choice should be clear. Barack Obama is the only candidate that can effect changes that will correct the wrong decisions made these past eight years.

Gee, What a Surprise!
Your result for The Personality Defect Test...
Class Clown
You are 29% Rational, 57% Extroverted, 71% Brutal, and 86% Arrogant.
I really need to stop thinking so literally...
Anyway, I MEANT to say that you are the Class Clown, and this means that you are extroverted, mean, and arrogant. You are not very rational, so you gravitate towards things that produce feelings or emotions over thoughts (like fart jokes or spitballs, for instance). You are also an extrovert and rather full of yourself, so of course you want constant attention for yourself and think you are somehow better than others. (Upon hearing the expression "you are full of yourself", you probably also slyly feel the need to ask women if they would like to be "full of yourself" too. I am assuming you have a penis. I often make that assumption, being fond of the penis.) You can also be a bit mean-spirited, and like a class clown you wouldn't hesitate to make a joke at someone else's expense, no matter how terrible it would make them feel. A lot of people probably find your antics annoying, sophomoric, and desperately histrionic. Like some sort of crack-taking hyperactive monkey, you'd do anything, mock anyone, just to get someone to pay attention to you for five seconds. So your personality defects are that you have to be the center of attention, that you don't care about others, and that you are rather irrational and motivated by intuitions. Now stop walking around with those books on your head and sit down this instant! Or else I'll be forced to stand here, hands on my hips, doing nothing once again!
To put it less negatively:
1. You are more INTUITIVE than rational.
2. You are more EXTROVERTED than introverted.
3. You are more BRUTAL than gentle.
4. You are more ARROGANT than humble.
Your exact opposite is the Robot.
Other personalities you would probably get along with are the Schoolyard Bully, the Smartass, and the Brute.
If you scored near fifty percent for a certain trait (42%-58%), you could very well go either way. For example, someone with 42% Extroversion is slightly leaning towards being an introvert, but is close enough to being an extrovert to be classified that way as well. Below is a list of the other personality types so that you can determine which other possible categories you may fill if you scored near fifty percent for certain traits.
The other personality types:
The Emo Kid: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.
The Starving Artist: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.
The Bitch-Slap: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.
The Brute: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.
The Hippie: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.
The Televangelist: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.
The Schoolyard Bully: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.
The Class Clown: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.
The Robot: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.
The Haughty Intellectual: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.
The Spiteful Loner: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.
The Sociopath: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.
The Hand-Raiser: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.
The Braggart: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.
The Capitalist Pig: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.
The Smartass: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.
Be sure to take my Sublime Philosophical Crap Test if you are interested in taking a slightly more intellectual test that has just as many insane ramblings as this one does!

Diana Ross and Ru Paul - I Will Survive
This is the sexiest Diva out there!! Diana Ross not Ru Paul. lol I love this woman!!
Wednesday, October 15, 2008
And Senator Obama, I wish you would have been less of a gentleman. It's one thing for a bully to kick dirt in your face and ignore it. But when that same bully has the nerve to come back with the beach patrol and ask YOU to apologize for having your face in the way of his foot.....well I say, GET HIM!!!
What Obama should have said:
John, no one likes to raise taxes but, thanks to this war that your administration started, we don't have any choices. I am just not going to raise it on the working people and small businesses of this country. And John, for you to say you aren't going to raise taxes makes me wonder if you're going to pay for the entire war out of your wife's purse.
John, no one cares if your feelings are hurt. You sit here with that snarky smile and thug glint in your eyes when you know you deliberately allowed my middle name to be mocked in a deragatory way, my religion deliberately misstated, and my very life threatened without so much as a peep from you or your running mate. And now you want to ask me to apologize for responding to those slurs? It's true you do have the balls of a Maverick. Unfortunately you don't have the clear mind and eyesight cause it's not going to happen. The news channels have done nothing but show your running mate's silence as well as that of your own during those rallies. I'm sure there were many decent people at your rallies and I hope every one of them wised up and left when they saw the extent to how low the McCain/Palin team will sink.
John, I didn't have to run against the Bush administration four years ago. I'm doing it now thanks to you.
John, I don't have to take on my party. That was your job since you were busy supporting your own party.
John, if I wanted you to speak for me at this debate, I would have paid you to be my stand in. Since I didn't, let me be perfectly clear. I AM GOING TO BE THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
That is all.

Would Jesus Discriminate? The 21st Century Question
On National Coming out Day and in honor of the recent victories in California and now Conneticut, it seems appropriate to reflect on the fact that Love is what is important. To be afraid that the human race will disappear if gays and lesbians are allowed to marry is just plain stupid. Obviously, there are more people now than ever before and we've always been here. So lighten up world and let us love.

TAMPA - A letter carrier reaching into a New Tampa mailbox was bitten by an Eastern diamondback rattlesnake about 11:40 this morning, according to Tampa Fire Rescue and the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office.
The 66-year-old carrier drove himself back to the New Tampa post office at 16350 Bruce B. Downs Blvd., where 911 was summoned. He was taken to University Community Hospital on Fletcher Avenue in good condition, Tampa Fire Rescue said.
His identity was not available.

My challenge to you: Take 30 seconds right now. Close your eyes and imagine exactly what our country will feel like with President Obama. Imagine how good it will feel. Imagine whatever it is about him that you desire. Imagine the pride. Imagine the diplomacy. Imagine the peace. Imagine the wind mills and the clean cars. Imagine the citizen groups. Imagine whatever it is that drew you to support Obama. Imagine what your life will look like. Just 30 seconds. Do it several times a day. We can shift and change the vibration of this country with positive visions just like this. It's only 30 seconds a few times a day. Surely you can find the time. It will feel good. Just try it and keep doing it.
Then pass this on to all of your Obama supporter friends. If we all take 30 seconds several times a day to shift into this positive vibration, it will work. You wait and see!
He ventured forth to bring light to the world
The anointed one's pilgrimage to the Holy Land is a miracle in action - and a blessing to all his faithful followers
From The Times, written by Gerald Baker
And it came to pass, in the eighth year of the reign of the evil Bush the Younger (The Ignorant), when the whole land from the Arabian desert to the shores of the Great Lakes had been laid barren, that a Child appeared in the wilderness.
The Child was blessed in looks and intellect. Scion of a simple family, offspring of a miraculous union, grandson of a typical white person and an African peasant. And yea, as he grew, the Child walked in the path of righteousness, with only the occasional detour into the odd weed and a little blow.
When he was twelve years old, they found him in the temple in the City of Chicago, arguing the finer points of community organisation with the Prophet Jeremiah and the Elders. And the Elders were astonished at what they heard and said among themselves: "Verily, who is this Child that he opens our hearts and minds to the audacity of hope?"
In the great Battles of Caucus and Primary he smote the conniving Hillary, wife of the deposed King Bill the Priapic and their barbarian hordes of Working Class Whites.
And so it was, in the fullness of time, before the harvest month of the appointed year, the Child ventured forth - for the first time - to bring the light unto all the world.
He traveled fleet of foot and light of camel, with a small retinue that consisted only of his loyal disciples from the tribe of the Media. He ventured first to the land of the Hindu Kush, where the
Taliban had harboured the viper of al-Qaeda in their bosom, raining terror on all the world.
And the Child spake and the tribes of Nato immediately loosed the Caveats that had previously bound them. And in the great battle that ensued the forces of the light were triumphant. For as long as the Child stood with his arms raised aloft, the enemy suffered great blows and the threat of terror was no more.
From there he went forth to Mesopotamia where he was received by the great ruler al-Maliki, and al-Maliki spake unto him and blessed his Sixteen Month Troop Withdrawal Plan even as the imperial warrior Petraeus tried to destroy it.
And lo, in Mesopotamia, a miracle occurred. Even though the Great Surge of Armour that the evil Bush had ordered had been a terrible mistake, a waste of vital military resources and doomed to end in disaster, the Child's very presence suddenly brought forth a great victory for the forces of the light.
And the Persians, who saw all this and were greatly fearful, longed to speak with the Child and saw that the Child was the bringer of peace. At the mention of his name they quickly laid aside their intrigues and beat their uranium swords into civil nuclear energy ploughshares.
From there the Child went up to the city of Jerusalem, and entered through the gate seated on an ass. The crowds of network anchors who had followed him from afar cheered "Hosanna" and waved great palm fronds and strewed them at his feet.
In Jerusalem and in surrounding Palestine, the Child spake to the Hebrews and the Arabs, as the Scripture had foretold. And in an instant, the lion lay down with the lamb, and the Israelites and Ishmaelites ended their long enmity and lived for ever after in peace.
As word spread throughout the land about the Child's wondrous works, peoples from all over flocked to hear him; Hittites and Abbasids; Obamacons and McCainiacs; Cameroonians and Blairites.
And they told of strange and wondrous things that greeted the news of the Child's journey. Around the world, global temperatures began to decline, and the ocean levels fell and the great warming was over.
The Great Prophet Algore of Nobel and Oscar, who many had believed was the anointed one, smiled and told his followers that the Child was the one generations had been waiting for.
And there were other wonderful signs. In the city of the Street at the Wall, spreads on interbank interest rates dropped like manna from Heaven and rates on credit default swaps fell to the ground as dead birds from the almond tree, and the people who had lived in foreclosure were able to borrow again.
Black gold gushed from the ground at prices well below $140 per barrel. In hospitals across the land the sick were cured even though they were uninsured. And all because the Child had pronounced it.
And this is the testimony of one who speaks the truth and bears witness to the truth so that you might believe. And he knows it is the truth for he saw it all on CNN and the BBC and in the pages of The New York Times.
Then the Child ventured forth from Israel and Palestine and stepped onto the shores of the Old Continent. In the land of Queen Angela of Merkel, vast multitudes gathered to hear his voice, and he preached to them at length.
But when he had finished speaking his disciples told him the crowd was hungry, for they had had nothing to eat all the hours they had waited for him.
And so the Child told his disciples to fetch some food but all they had was five loaves and a couple of frankfurters. So he took the bread and the frankfurters and blessed them and told his disciples to feed the multitudes. And when all had eaten their fill, the scraps filled twelve baskets.
Thence he travelled west to Mount Sarkozy. Even the beauteous Princess Carla of the tribe of the Bruni was struck by awe and she was great in love with the Child, but he was tempted not.
On the Seventh Day he walked across the Channel of the Angles to the ancient land of the hooligans. There he was welcomed with open arms by the once great prophet Blair and his successor, Gordon the Leper, and his successor, David the Golden One.
And suddenly, with the men appeared the archangel Gabriel and the whole host of the heavenly choir, ranks of cherubim and seraphim, all praising God and singing: "Yes, We Can."

Although establishing certain general relations between atomic and molecular refractions, the results were somewhat vitiated by the inadequacy of the empirical function which he employed, since it was by no means a constant which depended only on the actual composition of the substance and was independent of its physical condition.
An indispensable preliminary was the virtual elimination of oxygen-absorption in the earth's atmosphere, and his bold project of establishing an observatory on the top of Mont Blanc was prompted by a perception of the advantages to be gained by reducing the thickness of air through which observations have to be made.
Three-quarters of the native species are endemic; they seem, however, to be quite unable to resist the invasion of new-comers, and already 600 plants of foreign origin have succeeded in establishing themselves.

The government has made repeated efforts to secure immigrants from Europe, but the lands set apart for immigrant settlers are in the forested provinces south of the Bio-Bio, where the labour and hardships involved in establishing a home are great, and the protection of the law against bandits and criminal assaults is weak.
The two governments furthermore agree to reduce their respective fleets, according to an arrangement establishing a reasonable proportion between the two fleets.
In 18 To, owing to the growth of Methodism and the lack of ordained ministers, he led the Connexion in the movement for connexionally ordained ministers, and his influence was the chief factor in the success of that important step. From 1811 to 1814 his energy was mainly devoted to establishing auxiliary Bible Societies.
Before the arrival of the staff and contingent from England (December 1895) the native forces were employed in improving the road from Cape Coast to Prahsu (70 m.), and in establishing road stations to serve as standing camps for the troops.
Notice has next to be taken of a Memoir on the Employment of Sternal Characters in establishing Natural Families among Birds, which was read by De Blainville before the Academy of Sciences of Paris in 1815, 5 but not published in full for more than five years later (Journal de physique.
About the year 1170 Lambert le Begue, a priest of Liege, who had devoted his fortune to founding the hospital and church of St Christopher for the widows and children of crusaders, conceived the idea of establishing an association of women, who, without taking the monastic vows, should devote themselves to a life of religion.
The Conservative party, moreover, was closely allied with the church, and Sir Robert had offended the church by giving an increased endowment to Maynooth, and by establishing undenominational colleges godless colleges as they were calledin Ireland.

So this weekend with Mom, Courtney, and Alissa we went shopping for fabric and got everything for all the baby bedding. I got going right away on the quilt with the help of Mom and Alissa on Monday. Since then... I have boycotted all homework and studying so that I could get it finished because I couldn't wait to see the finished product. So- tonight I finished!! I really love the colors and fabric we chose- I can't wait to see the room when I get it all finished. I realized this weekend that I have an obsession with brown. Wedding colors, nursery colors, half my wardrobe... What next?? So many opportunities in remodeling our house, haha...I assure you... there will be more. I'll try not to get too carried away- but brown just looks good with so many colors!! Anyway- here is the quilt. It turned out a lot bigger that I thought it would, but thats ok- charles pointed out, well- she'll probably be a big baby :)

Growing up, we had sweet potatoes with toasted marshmallows more times than I can count. They were so decadent and over the top, and while I will never complain about having marshmallows for dinner (the goal was always to end up with as much of the topping and as few of the sweet potatoes on our plates as possible) the sweet potatoes got a little lost under all that sugar.
I wanted to come up with a recipe for sweet potatoes that were every bit as decadent as the ones my brothers and I loved as kids, but with a more interesting and savory flavor profile for Thanksgiving. This Savory Sweet Potato Crumble hits all those marks – and let's just say, it goes a lot better with turkey and gravy than marshmallows do.
The crumble is made with walnuts, flour, fresh sage, brown sugar, Parmesan, a touch of heat from crushed pepper flakes, and of course, a generous amount of butter. It's essentially a mash-up of Thanksgiving stuffing and a cheesy bread crumb topping. The potatoes underneath are creamy and studded with shallots caramelized in brown butter. Together, the crisp, savory crumble and slightly sweet, oniony potatoes are a winning pair, and you won't believe how much the house smells like pure Thanksgiving when this dish is in the oven. It is the kind of smell Yankee Candles aspire to, and one that can only truly exist when a pan of something homemade and delicious is bubbling away in the oven.
Whether you're cooking for the big night next week, or are in need of a great last minute recipe for your Friendsgiving this weekend, these sweet potatoes are a real showstopper and definitely not your average side dish. (And they don't just have to be for Thanksgiving, either!)
Savory Sweet Potato Crumble
- 4 lbs sweet potatoes, scrubbed (6 medium)
- 2 cups thinly sliced shallots (about 6 large)
- 9 tbsp (1 stick + 1 tbsp) unsalted butter, at room temperature, divided
- 4 tbsp light brown sugar, divided
- 1 ½ cups finely chopped walnuts
- ¾ cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh sage
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes, divided
- ½ cup whole milk
- kosher salt
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Prick the potatoes several times with the tines of a fork, and bake for 1 hour, or until tender when tested with a knife. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat 4 tbsp of the butter in a medium (10 inch) sauté pan. Cook the butter over medium-low heat for three minutes, watching carefully, until brown flecks begin to form. Immediately remove the pan from the heat and add the shallots and 1 tablespoon of the brown sugar. Cook over medium-low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the shallots are tender and lightly browned. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine the walnuts, flour, Parmesan, sage, ¼ tsp red pepper flakes, 2 tbsp of the brown sugar, the remaining 5 tbsp butter, and 1 tsp salt. Using your fingers, pinch the mixture together to form large crumbles. Set aside.
- Peel the potatoes and place the flesh in a large mixing bowl, discarding the skin. With a hand mixer on low speed or a potato masher, beat the potato mixture until smooth. Fold in the shallot mixture, the remaining tablespoon of brown sugar, the milk, ¼ tsp red pepper flakes and 2 tsp salt and combine.
- Transfer to a large, shallow baking dish. Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the potatoes and bake for 30 minutes, until the crumble is browned and the potatoes are heated through. Serve hot.

BY FAR THE BEST WEDDING DECISION I MADEReviewed on 12/28/2015 Melissa H
BY FAR THE BEST WEDDING DECISION I MADE…with the exception of the groom! Grab a thesaurus, look up synonyms for "amazing" and there you'll find the perfect way to define Foto Bohemia. From the moment that we met Jessie, we instantly clicked. The excitement she shared with me... Read More over my upcoming nuptials made me feel safe and secure that she'd perfectly execute my vision. Booking a wedding photographer is easily one of the most crucial aspects to wedding planning. Weddings are expensive – we all know this, and at the end of it all the only way you have to remember it is with the pictures. Being a photographer myself, I stressed about who I would hire to capture our special day. How would I find someone that could perfectly execute my vision, what if they did a horrible job? There's no do-over's, it's a one-shot experience. Jessie made all those fears go away – within seconds of meeting with her. She did our engagement session, my boudoir session and most recently, with her husband Pavel by her side, they shot our wedding. Every experience was amazing! During our engagement session my fiancé and I were relaxed the entire time, allowing her to capture us in our element. My boudoir session was likely the most fun I've had in like….forever. And that's coming from an insecure person who, because of how amazing Jessie is, had no issues stripping down into lingerie in front of the camera. And our wedding….icing on the cake. Foto Bohemia captured every element exquisitely. The images we received back were flawless. These photographers have skills and there is absolutely no exaggeration when I say they are the BEST in the business. Do yourself a favor, eliminate the stress of finding a wedding photographer and book them. It'll be a decision you will never forget! I promise!
In 18 years of wedding photography we've never had a client send us flowers because they loved the engagement session so much! Talk about knowing the way to your photographer's heart!! :D You were seriously SO much awesome and we are so incredibly lucky to... Read Less Read More
I couldn't have chosen a better team to photograph our wedding day! Jessie and Pavel are so much fun to work with and are great at capturing all those candid moments that show your personalities and love for each other. I have had so many friends tell me about how beautiful the... Read More pictures are and how they really show much fun that night was! One family that was at my wedding is even using one of Jessie and Pavel's photos for the Christmas card this year!
We absolutely loved getting to know you and Brad, and I'm SO happy you decided to add on the FotoBooth because your friends are HILARIOUS. We had the best time with you guys!!! Wishing you many many happy years together! xo!
Thank you!
These two are the best people, not only at photography but just in life. They are always open to suggestions and want to give you only the best pictures. They are loving and giving to you at every moment of the process. They also did our engagement photos and that was when I... Read More knew Jessie was going to be so calming to have as a photographer for the wedding. She is always smiling and giving so many compliments throughout (which you do need the day of). I would recommend them to anyone looking for a great duo to capture the best day of your life. Thank you both for so many great photos and I hope to use you again in other life experiences! XOXO
Jessie was a dream to work with. I was not the easiest client and she was patient and kind. She handled last minute changes like a pro and my pictures are amazing. She was by far my favorite vendor.
"Not the easiest client" - I beg to differ. :D You were absolutely *wonderful* to work with!! You had so much to deal with leading up to your wedding but you stayed calm and fabulous throughout it all. We had an absolute blast taking your... Read Less Read More
Jessie seriously is so amazing and talented! She was such an amazing help in making the wedding photos so perfect. She was extremely responsive and easy to get a hold of, which was really important since my husband and I were planning our wedding form another state! All of the... Read More little detail shots that she did truly captured how amazing the night was. She is also extremely adaptable. Due to our wedding starting late we were not able to go to where we had planned for photos during cocktail hour, but Jessie had a great suggest and the photos came out so amazing with this beautiful back lighting. Our guests cannot get over how amazing the photos were and that is truly because of Jessie and her husband's amazing talent. I highly suggest if you are in the Tampa area using FotoBohemia, you will not be disappointed.
OHmygosh - thank you SO MUCH, Lauren!! You and Reicel have a special place in our hearts, and we are so happy that you liked the photos. Wishing you both all the happiness in the world.
Jessie is a doll. Truly. This woman knew how to deal with everyone from my 2 year old flower girl to my 73 year old father. She has an eye - something that cannot be taught - and such a positive attitude to go with it. BY FAR THE BEST VENDOR CHOICE I MADE FOR MY WEDDING.... Read More Prior to the wedding, Jessie was honest, responsive and a pleasure to work with. The pricing is very reasonable for what you get!
I loved every second of your wedding!! Thank you for such an amazing review, and - seriously - congratulations!!! You guys rocked your wedding day SO HARD!!!
Absolutely wonderful experience from my first encounter with the owner Jessie! Their business philosophy is so unique and connected us with a wonderful photographer (Ashlee Harmon) who we may not otherwise have found. Leading up to the wedding, Jessie made us feel so comfortable... Read More and answered any and all questions and gave us helpful suggestions along the way. Ashlee was absolutely awesome as well, especially the day of the wedding, and totally understood our personalities/vision for the wedding! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a professional, stress free photographer!
We are SO happy to hear that, and Ashlee freaking adored you guys so it is love all around! Your wedding was amazing and we were absolutely honored to be able to document it for you. Congratulations to you both!!!
Jessie was so responsive and easy to work with. She was super organized and a great communicator. My wedding photos are beautiful and she captured A LOT of special moments. She must be a ninja. I have heard and experienced nightmares when it comes to photography...and I have to... Read More say I didn't experience one!
We're so absolutely thrilled to hear you enjoyed your experience with us. I can neither confirm nor deny that we're ninjas, as confirmation breaks the ninja code of conduct rules. ;) But we LOVED working with you guys and are so happy for you both!
Foto Bohemia was wonderful to work with. They were friendly, accommodating, and personable.

Please proceed with your question
how are you
I am doing good
How can I help you?
XXXXXXX am doing Night shift, while doing night shift am not able to maintain proper timings for taking food
now not a problem, but in future any problem?
Now am taking only twice a day
that is afternoon around 2-3 and Night 9-10
am not taking any Break-fast
Mr. XXXXXXX Whether you work in the nights or day, you should make time for your basic necessities such as food and water
If you are working in the nights, why are you trying to follow a day routine for food
You can have the breakfast before you leave for office
but am leaving the Office at 5:00 AM
In the office you can have a meal which is equivalent to lunch
and you can have one meal when you go back from office
that will be equal to your dinner
Shift your breakfast time to night
reverse the order of your meals
and eat a meal in your office
is there any problem in future, if am not maintaining proper timings for the food
The problems will be mostly nutrition related, like vitamin deficiencies
and if your meals are XXXXXXX in fats and oils then you will have problems due to that
Your body needs certain amounts of calories, proteins and fats round the clock, it does not matter at what time you provide them to your body
the question will be, once you develop a particular habit, will your body be able to change that habit when you shift from a night job to a day job\
but it's takes time
If you can provide good nutrition with your current eating style, then there will be no problem in the future that is particularly related to food
You might have some problem shifting back to your normal way of eating
Yes it takes time
May I know Nutrition food means, what exactly?
nutrition means how well your body is nourished from the food you have eaten
It is a kind of qualitative measure of the food
All living beings need nutrition to live a healthy life, if the food is able to provide all the things that are required by the body then that food is called a nutritious food.
Is there anything else you want to discuss?
Are you there?
Thanks for you Suggestions
now am busy, I wil chat you tomorrow
You are welcome

The Rewarding HobbySeptember 8th, 2014
Dolls' houses and miniatures is one of the most rewarding hobbies, the complete escapism from the world allows stresses to simply slip away. That's not the only reason it can be rewarding though. The Dolls House Emporium offers reward or 'loyalty' points when you place an order and they can be redeemed at any time!
These points can be put towards your purchases whenever you like; either to gain small discounts off regular purchases, or you can save up and treat yourself to something free!
The Dolls House Emporium reward points are automatically added to your online account every time that you shop with The Dolls House Emporium, or use your unique referral code to recommend us to someone (you can find this code in the 'My Reward Points' section of your account).
How do I earn Reward Points?
For every £1 you spend with The Dolls House Emporium, you earn 1 reward point. Each point is worth a penny, so if you spend £100 on your order, you would earn 100 points which converts to £1 off a future purchase. The points really do add up; watch out for special reward points promotions from time to time for the chance to earn extra points!
How do I earn The Dolls House Emporium Referral Points?
For every new customer you recommend to The Dolls House Emporium, you earn 3 reward points for every pound they spend on their first order. For example, if you recommend a friend who spends £50 on their first order, we'll give you 150 points! The more people you recommend to The Dolls House Emporium, the more points you will earn, meaning more savings for you.
In order for us to track who you recommend, you need to make sure they use your unique code at our checkout, when they make their first purchase. If they do this, they'll also receive a 5% discount off their first order so it's win-win! You can find this code in the 'Rewards Points' section of Your Account. Your current points total can also be found on this page.
How do I spend my Reward Points?
Redeeming your points could not be easier. Simply log into your account and then add the required product(s) to your basket. Once you go through to the payment page you will be asked by an on screen prompt "would you like to convert your reward points to pay for this transaction?". If you have enough points you will be able to pay for the complete order, if not we will simply reduce your payment by the amount that you have accrued. Please note that if your points total exceeds your basket value, we only transfer enough points to cover the transaction value so you will not lose any points that were not spent, they will simply be saved for your next purchase.
With so many ways to save there has never been a better time to buy from dollshouse.co.uk, so what are you waiting for? Don't forget you automatically save money; there is nothing you need to do except send all you friends your unique referral code, the more people you recommend the more you save!

Man is robbed
at gunpoint
A 24-year old North Augusta man told police that two men stole his vehicle July 29 after asking him for a cigarette.
According to a North Augusta Public Safety report, the victim was standing by his vehicle at the Pine Crest Apartment complex when two men in a black Ford Crown Victoria car approached him and asked for a cigarette around 11:35 p.m.
They then pointed a revolver at the victim's head and asked for his wallet and money. When the victim told them he didn't have any money, the men told him to give them the keys to his vehicle and then they fled the area with the victim's vehicle, according to the report.
Woman attempts to steal baby monitor
A Trenton, S.C., woman - with her 2-year-old daughter in tow - was arrested at Walmart on Aug. 1 after being accused of trying to steal a baby monitor, according to a North Augusta Public Safety incident report.
Letahja Stephens was seen taking the $230 baby monitor off a shelf inside the store and placing it in an empty Walmart bag before trying to leave, according to the report. She was stopped by one of the store's loss-prevention employees and held until a public safety officer could arrive.
Stephens admitted to the theft and was arrested with shoplifting. Her daughter was turned over to a friend who came to the store, according to the report.
Stephens was taken to the Aiken County Detention Center.
Tow truck driver reports attack
A tow truck driver told police that a man opened his door and later threw a stick at his vehicle when he drove through the Pine Crest Apartment complex around 9:20 p.m. July 31.
The man said that he was towing a vehicle that was repossessed in Hephzibah when he heard a man say that it was his mother's car, according to a North Augusta Public Safety incident report.
The man came up to the tow truck and began yelling at the driver and opened the driver's door. The driver said he was able to close and lock the door and began driving away from the man. The man then hit the side of the tow truck and threw a stick at it, according to the report.
School building broken into
Two people have been arrested in connection with breaking into the Aiken County Public Schools Area 2 building, 740 Old Edgefield Road, on Aug. 1.
According to a North Augusta Public Safety incident report, officers were dispatched to the building, which is located by Summerfield Park, around 9:45 p.m. in reference to a group of men breaking into the building.
One officer went to the back side of Walmart and walked in through the wood line while another officer pulled into the building's parking lot. The officer that entered the area from the back was later heard telling several people to get on the ground.
The second officer then noticed a group climbing through the wood line next to the building and another male run across the soccer field to get over to Royalette Avenue. The officer then called dispatch for additional units due to the number of people trying to get away.
The other officer was able to take one into custody, later identified as 18-year-old Xavier Mitchell, who was running out of the building along with several others as the officer was telling them to get on the ground, according to the report.
An investigator was called to the scene and a window on the front of the Area 2 building had been broken and "several items of interest" were found inside of the building, according to the report.
Mitchell, of the 1100 block of Terrace Circle, was taken to public safety headquarters where he was charged with burglary in the second degree after being interviewed by an investigator.
The next morning, a second person was arrested when he came to public safety headquarters to report that his backpack had been stolen from Summerfield Park, according to the report.
When he was taken into the interview room to give a statement, Shaquan Darvon Bash first stated that his bag was stolen and he didn't run from officers the night before. A detective "advised Mr. Bash of the evidence found and Mr. Bash finally confessed to being in the building and running from the officers," according to the report.
Bash, 17, was placed under arrest and charged with burglary second degree.
The Area 2 building has been vacant for a little more than a year after the school district changed from an area superintendent structure to one with academic officers.

West Ham United are set to seal a season-long loan deal to sign midfielder Alex Song from Barcelona.
Former Arsenal star Song is ready to choose a move back to the Premier League with the Hammers over Galatasaray and Napoli.
Barca will not receive a loan fee from West Ham and will continue to pay a percentage of Song's wages.
The move represents somewhat of a coup for West Ham, as Song was being chased by Turkish giants Galatasaray, who are in the group stages of the Champions League, and Europa League contestants Napoli.
Tottenham also showed an interest in Song, but were unwilling to commit to a transfer while they still retain a hope of signing Morgan Schneiderlin.
Song left Arsenal in 2012 after only finishing behind Robin van Persie in the club's player of the year awards, having set up a number of goals for the Dutchman.
Cameroon international Song has struggled to establish himself at Barca, but is eager to kick-start his career again in the Premier League.

I gave my car its semiannual professional wash the other day and paid for it with a credit card. As the cashier finished writing up the sale, I saw a handwritten sign posted on the counter that said: "$1 off for customers over 60."
I pointed to the sign and said, "I didn't notice this."
The cashier looked startled.
"I would have asked," she said, "but it never occurred to me that you could be over 60."
I paid the extra buck and signed the ticket.
But I'm going to have to be more alert. The places that offer senior citizen discounts are multiplying, and there's a point beyond which vanity becomes economically counterproductive. These decisions aren't arrived at easily, however. Each incident is a kind of adventure, to be dealt with individually.
When I take my wife--who is much younger--and my stepson to a movie, for example, I find it extremely difficult to tell the ticket-seller, as I must: "One child, one adult and one senior."

I started this article with an assumption that freedom is a shared value for all of my readers, that we would all take it for granted that freedom (particularly for adults, but possibly for everyone) is a prerequisite for thriving.
But before I dive into the question that makes up the title of this article, I want to try to get on the same page about this idea.
Miki Kashtan first described power to me as "the ability to gather (and access) resources to attend to needs." I guess, then, that freedom is unhindered access to that power, and choice in how one uses it.
When we are free and have the requisite skills, we have much greater access to what is called self-connection, an understanding of our own feelings and needs in any given situation. And when this happens, we have access to sanity, clarity, efficiency (my favorite), joy, fulfillment… and all the rest of those lofty goals we see marketed to us every day.
But freedom is such a slippery, abstract idea. How can we think about freedom in a grounded way?
In six words, what is the structure of freedom?
The question almost seems like a paradox: how can freedom have structure? In fact, "structuring" freedom reeks of philosopher monarchs telling their subjects what to do and well-intentioned adults instructing children how to behave. While telling them that they are, in fact, free.
Obviously, that's not what I'm going for. But I've grappled with this question consulting and visiting a variety of gifted and 2e schools.
How can we create a culture of freedom in such a structured environment as school?
I believe it can be done. I have to. And it starts with buy-in.
Frequently at meetings, when colleagues propose actions that would impact the children, I ask "In the name of what needs?" All too often, there is an insufficient assessment and the lack of a profile of needs, longings, and hopes that could increase buy-in from all involved.
Requests, both for connection and solutions, are best delivered upon a foundation of shared understanding at the needs level. One concrete strategy is to include all stakeholders, including children, in meetings that plan how they will spend their time.
There is precedent for this in many school districts' special education departments having Individualized Education Plan (IEP) meetings with the kids present, as well as in mental health agencies offering "wraparound services".
You can either let kids be fully heard about their hopes and levels of willingness, or they will use some combination of passive and active aggression in the classroom to speak louder to the same needs.
If the kid can speak up before that happens, at the planning time (although all moments are moments of choice), then they are more accountable for their own choices about production and honoring agreements. If they are presented with a pre-packaged curriculum, any medium-high functioning educator can subtly undermine their voice by pushing an agenda they had no say in.
To propose that their expressed needs are every bit as important as those of the adults also increases self-responsibility, and is consistent with progress in many domains (including civility, ingenuity, and perseverance).
Honoring the needs, first by hearing them, is one key step in structuring freedom. I'd love to hear in the comments below strategies you have used to help children express their true hopes and longings.

We had a chance these past few weeks to help out with a Medical Benefit for one of our friends.
When we had gotten asked it didn't take long for us to say yes even though we really didn't know what this would all involve. And now that the benefit is over I'm so glad that we had this opportunity.
The morning of the benefit was spent getting ready and finishing up all the last minute items. We had such an outpouring from the community for gifts and items, we needed to make sure that we were organized on the silent auction baskets along with the live auction items and the cookie pails. The cookie pails was something that I haven't seen before. These cookie pails were are ice cream pails filled with a variety of all different types of cookies and were being sold for $10. I bought one the night before and it's like a little Christmas package in our refrigerator 🙂
So this afternoon we were all just a little nervous because you just never know how this was all going to turn out. I mean will people come and then also bid on things? I said to myself early this morning that we should just go and have fun and we'll just have to wait and see what all happens.
And guess what happened? We had a Fantastic turnout! We live in a small community and there is something to be said about your community watching out for each other. I think almost all of our town was here along with tons of people from the neighboring towns. It was really very cool! At one time we even had all the tables full. Awesome!
And when all the raffle items were handed out and the live auction items were bought, we cleaned up the hall and shut the doors and headed downtown.
When I thought about how the night went, I was so grateful that I was able to help and the only words that I can think of is just how humble it makes you feel. It was a lot of work, but it's one of those times when you know that the work was so worth it!
I sure hope that there won't be another reason for a benefit in our community for quite some time. But if there is someone that needs help, I know that our community will pull together once again because that's just what you do.

From the Australian: SEA water under an East Antarctic ice shelf showed no sign of higher temperatures despite fears of a thaw linked to global warming that could bring higher world ocean levels, first tests showed yesterday.
Sensors lowered through three holes drilled in the Fimbul Ice Shelf showed the sea water is still around freezing and not at higher temperatures widely blamed for the break-up of 10 shelves on the Antarctic Peninsula, the most northerly part of the frozen continent in West Antarctica.
"The water under the ice shelf is very close to the freezing point," Ole Anders Noest of the Norwegian Polar Institute wrote after drilling through the Fimbul, which is between 250m and 400m thick.
"This situation seems to be stable, suggesting that the melting under the ice shelf does not increase," he wrote of the first drilling cores.

"Mission accomplished. The Museum of Modern Art's wide-open, tall-ceilinged, super-reinforced second floor was for all intents and purposes built to accommodate monumental installations and gigantic sculptures, should the need arise. It has arisen."
"I pity the young woman who will attempt to insinuate herself between my mama's boy and me. I sympathize with the monumental nature of her task. It will take a crowbar, two bulldozers and half a dozen Molotov cocktails to pry my Oedipus and me loose from one another."
"I'd love to do something with Kelly Clarkson because she's been a monumental influence on me. I love how she handles her celebrity. She's not in the tabloids a lot but everyone knows and respects her because she's got an amazing voice. That's something I aim towards."
"I had a monumental idea this morning, but I didn't like it."
"I respond very well to well-written material and women who have had an effect on society, something tragic or monumental has happened to them."

In this video, you'll see how to put a tasty twist on tomato salsa. This 'cowboy caviar' stars whole kernel corn, black-eyed peas, black beans, jalapeno peppers, and a tangy Italian-style dressing. Serve with tortilla chips or spoon it onto sandwiches, burritos, tacos, and nachos. Watch the video, then get Susan's 5-star recipe for Spicy Bean Salsa. It's best if you let it marinade overnight.
This is delicious if you use fresh, roasted on the grill corn and red onion instead of white. And, you can use 7 Seas Red Wine Vinegar Dressing if you can find it.
We are just against using canned stuff, so anyone tried substituting canned stuff with the fresh one? Regards,
This is wonderful. I usually substitute commercial salsa instead of the Italian dressing, and add cilantro. In case there are leftovers it is wonderful added to a taco salad.

Copper Roofing: How To Take Care Of Your RoofCopper roofing is one of the most popular all over the country. Not only does copper roofing beautiful and durable, it is also easier to clean compared to other types of roofing. If you are one of those people who usually do your own roof cleaning instead of hiring professionals, here are some home based cleaning tips for you.
Taking Care of Your RoofThe first thing that you need to do to make your roof last longer is to clean it periodically. Always remember that the dirt and dust that often accumulates on your copper roofing will accelerate the deterioration of your roof. By removing dirt and dust from your roof, you can prolong the life of your roof. According to experts, you can extend the lifespan of your copper roofing to as much as 30% to 40% if you periodically clean it.
When cleaning your cooper roofing, make sure that you do not use any harsh substances that may cause damage to your roof. Note that copper reacts strongly to oxidation so make sure that you do not use any substances that can cause this. If you are not sure about the type of cleaners that you can use on your copper roofing, do a research first.
You can ask for referrals from people who are experts in cleaning copper roofing. For instance, if you used to hire a roof cleaning company before you decide to do the cleaning on your own, you might want to ask them what they used to put on your roof. You may also consult some magazines and other reading materials about cleaning copper roofing and learn from them. There are many construction and roofing magazines that often feature articles about roof cleaning.
Another good source of information copper cleaning is your local hardware. Go to your favorite hardware that is selling copper roofing materials and ask them for tips on how to take care of cooper roofing. In most instances, the company that supplies hardware stores of the copper roofing materials also provides them with literatures and instructions on how to take care of these items.
If you know anybody in the store you can just ask that person to give you a copy of the literature or reading materials on copper roofing. In the event where the store employee cannot give you a copy of the reading materials that you need, simply ask him or her for tips on how to clean your copper roofing. Take notes of what the hardware store employee has to say to make sure that you do not miss anything.

this is my third so you'd think i'd know what to do but this is a new situation for me. my son is 1 month now and when he eats he makes this high pitched gulping type sound and i know he's swallowing air. it's not making him terribly gassy or fussy but my other 2 didn't do this so i don't know if it's a latching issue or just something he does. i just feel bad when it does make him fussy. any thoughts?

that actually makes a lot of sense. there are times when he's eating and starts kind of spluttering and crying. it (not the noise but the fussing) seems to happen at times when he's trying to get to sleep. and i was thinking it was because he just wanted to suck but not actually eat. but if there's too much milk coming that makes sense. and it happens mostly on the one side that i'm pretty sure produces a bit more. it's the side that my other 2 developed a preference for as they got older. which would make sense too if the milk production is higher there. thank you! i will try leaning back next feeding.

My son did the same thing, and for the reason described above. Hopefully the other commenter's solution will work for you two. Congrats on the wee one, btw!

The Menace.
John S. & Rodney M.. Humor. Bit of Shep whump. Also hints of Sparky.
Timeline: Elizabeth and Carson are here – so obviously before end of season 3.
Previev: Atlantis is infiltrated by enemy most vile.
Disclaimer: All characters belong to MGM/Gecko.
Chapter one.
Typically, it all started with unscheduled off-world activation of the Stargate. While chevrons lit up one by one Lieutenant Colonel John Sheppard stood on the balcony overlooking Gate Room and with pride, satisfaction and healthy dose of apprehension watched well organized and many times rehearsed chaos below. Shield flickered to life, teams on security duty took positions with weapons drawn and aimed, random passerbys hurriedly cleared the area. Before Elizabeth Weir managed to leave her office and incoming wormhole splashed against the shield, Gate Room was ready and waited in tense silence for another curveball Pegasus was going to threw at them.
"Anything, Chuck?" He asked blond technician casting a glance at Elizabeth, who just came to his side and gripped the railing. She arched her eyebrow and he shrugged in response. "None of our teams is supposed to return or call anytime soon" Explanation was unnecessary, she knew daily schedule by heart too – but it filled the silence, and quick smile rewarded his effort.
"Not yet, Sir...uh, i got IDC just now. Its Captain Locke, Colonel!" Replied Canadian Sargeant. 'Locke?' That was a surprise. Good Captain's team went to Athalia – one of their minor, but more trustworthy trading allies since Year One. Just a 'blue milk run' for some exotic spices and healing herbs Medical Departament was interested with. And in two years plus, none of their teams had any problems there. Turning back to the Gate Colonel noticed Elizabeth's hand halfway to her headset.
"Captain Locke? This is Weir, please respond" Despite situation he had to smile a little. Cool, calm and collected – her 'radio voice' never failed to give him warm, pleasant fuzzies. Even when he was running for his life...Hell, especially when he was running for his life.
"Ma'am!" Locke's voice burst from speakers. Another surprise – Marine officers never, ever yelled desperately. Even when there was battalion of Wraith drones breathing down their necks. "Drop the shield! We're coming in hot!" Yup, that was his cue.
"Captain, this is Sheppard" He said, trying to project some calm to Marine on the other side of wormhole. "Whats the situation. Are you under attack?"
"Negative Sir!" Answer was immediate, and breathless. "Its a forest fire Colonel. Its all around us. We've barely made it to the Gate." Coughing. Someone was yelling in the background. Crap. He nodded at Chuck. Elizabeth was already calling Beckett and medical team to the Gate Room.
"Shield's down Captain. Come through." He was halfway down the stairs when event horizon rippled and first body came through at full run. Marine in dirty, smoking BDU's tripped, fell and rolled on the floor. Grunt of pain, arm tucked tightly to the chest – most likely first of newest batch of Carson's guests. He barely recognized Corporal Tyrell under grime and soot. Next came Private Nathanson – he managed not to fall, but was barely able to make couple of steps to the side before bending in a coughing fit. 'Thats two'. Doc was already there, crouched over Tyrell, murmuring encouragements, his medical posse milling around with O2 tanks, IVs and gurneys. He caught Elizabeth's worried expression as he turned back to the Stargate. Exactly at this moment rest of the team came through – Locke and Quelvada half supporting, half dragging Dr. Asagumi, Carson's court Pharmacist. 'Three, four, five – all accounted for.' "Medic!" He yelled rushing to their side. Asagumi was already sliding limply to the floor, her thick black hair smoking. Her teammates weren't doing much better – he had to catch Quelvada before tall Sargeant fell on top of petite Japanese woman. Second set of hands helped to keep Marine upright – Ronon of course, grim but steady like a rock. Moments later they were surrounded by medics gently but firmly taking hold of wheezing, coughing patients, administering oxygen, gauze, whisking them on the gurneys. There was nothing more he could do, so with nod to his teammate Colonel went to stand by Elizabeth's side. She was absently wiping hands in handkerchief, anxious eyes following procession of gurneys heading for infirmary.
"You're OK?" He asked quietly. She looked away. "Yes, of course. I was not the one to run through burning forest after all." 'I was just the one to send them there' Supplied her eyes in a way that had nothing to do with telepathy, and everything with trust and deep, intimate connection that grew between them during many similiar moments. "Hey. Stuff happens." He squeezed gently her elbow. 'They are home and safe. Dont beat yourself over this. Please.' Shroud lifted a bit from green eyes, and small but genuine smile appeared like sunrise. He blew quiet, relieved sigh when cold knot in his stomach finally dissolved.
"Private, you really need to lie down. Please, let me take it." Soft but firm voice of one of the nurses brought his attention to the side, where Nathanson still sat on the stairs. Marine clutched tightly something that looked like burlap sack filled with something lumpy, and apparently refused to budge from his spot until rest of his team was cared for. On the other hand nurse Olafsson – strong motherly woman that served her turn in war-torn Kosovo and volunteered for another, was having none of it. Still chatting placatingly she deftly pried curled fingers open and took a hold of the bag...only to drop it with a shriek when something inside jerked sharply. "Help! There is something alive inside!" Years of training and experience instantly kicked in and Sheppard pushed expedition leader behind him, pulling his sidearm in one swift movement. Every gun in the room took aim at shuddering pile of fabric.
"Nathanson! What the hell is this?" Colonel's voice rang loud and angry over shuffle of personnel backing away warily. Marine shrank down a bit and swallowed with difficulty. But before he had a chance to answer his CO, sack unfolded, and creatures hiding inside stumbled out.

Facebook hackers expose private Mark Zuckerberg images to highlight security flaws
Facebook hackers have published private photographs of founder Mark Zuckerberg to highlight security flaws in the social networking site.
Facebook hackers have published private photographs of founder Mark Zuckerberg to highlight security flaws in the social network.
The 14 images – which included shots of Mark Zuckerberg and his girlfriend cooking – were published on the image site Imgur, with a message saying: "It's time to fix those security flaws Facebook."
Government IT in post-Brexit Britain
Get an expert look at the government's ideas for a prosperous post-Brexit Britain as well as its ambitious 5G strategy. Features an interview with Sarah Wilkinson, chief data, digital and technology officer at the Home Office.

The flaw that enabled access to the pictures of Zuckerberg was found in a tool for users to report inappropriate images, but Facebook claimed it had already fixed the vulnerability.
"The bug allowed anyone to view a limited number of another user's most recently uploaded photos irrespective of the privacy settings for these photos," Facebook said in a statement.
Facebook said the bug had crept in through a recent code update, but was live only for a limited period of time.
"Upon discovering the bug, we immediately disabled the system, and will only return functionality once we can confirm the bug has been fixed," the statement read.
The bug was discovered by members of a bodybuilding forum, who went on to post step-by-step instructions on how to exploit the flaw to view private photos, according to the BBC.
The instructions for how to circumvent Facebook's privacy systems have been circulating online for more than two weeks, according to The Telegraph.
The embarrassing incident comes just one week after Zuckerberg admitted "a bunch of mistakes" after reaching a settlement with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) over charges that Facebook misled users about its use of their personal information.
The FTC conducted an investigation after a slew of complaints about Facebook's practices. These included sharing user data with advertisers, access to user data by third party apps and changes to privacy settings that made more user data public without warning.
The FTC has imposed external inspections of Facebook's privacy systems for the next 20 years and threatened fines of $16,000 a day for new violations.

Here is how Chelsea and Manchester United will line-up for this afternoon's match at Stamford Bridge:
Chelsea starting XI: Cech, Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Azpilicueta, Ramires, Luiz, Willian, Oscar, Hazard, Eto'o
Subs: Schwarzer, Cole, Lampard, Mikel, Matic, Mata, Torres
Manchester United starting XI: De Gea, Rafael, Evans, Vidic, Evra, Valencia, Carrick, Jones, Young, Januzaj, Welbeck
Subs: Lindegaard, Giggs, Smalling, Hernandez, Fletcher, Kagawa, Cleverley
Manchester United may look at Chelsea's new midfield signing Nemanja Matic and wonder what they need to do to get a break. While the Blues have added yet another quality midfielder to a team full of them, David Moyes' men are woefully short in that area. However, that is something from another day.
For now United will hope they can win at Stamford Bridge with the men they do have at their disposal; something made that much harder by Jose Mourinho's terrific record at the home of the Blues. That the Portuguese is also looking for his 100th Premier League victory adds extra spice to a match United dare not lose.
If they do so, they are almost certainly out of a title race many wrote-off weeks ago. But a win would give them considerable confidence going into the second half of the season.
Today's hosts have conceded just two goals in their last six home league matches. And with no Wayne Rooney or Robin van Persie in the visitor's line-up, they will be hoping to add another clean-sheet to that record.
Juan Mata – a perennial substitute these days – has scored on each of his last three league appearances for the Blues. How United could do with a man deemed if not unnecessary than certainly not vital to Mourinho's current squad.
What do you think the result will be this afternoon?

STOCKTON (CBS13) – A killer bacteria has forced Stockton to temporarily close its animal shelter and put down several dogs.
It's called strep zoo and is usually transmitted through horses.
Veterinarian Dr. Jyl Rubin says the bacteria can be especially concerning for places like shelters where animals and people are in close quarters.
"Because it can be upper repertory, it can be spread through coughing, sneezing, sharing of food bowls –and spreads rather quickly," Rubin said.
In fact, it can kill dogs within two to three days.
The shelter says it has already euthanized the most highly exposed animals and is treating the rest with antibiotics.
The symptoms in dogs can be lesions, fever, shortness of breath, nasal discharge and lethargy.

After graduating from the University of Idaho, he participated in the Green Bay Packers' rookie minicamp in 2013, but unfortunately wasn't signed to the roster. His position coach in college, Torey Hunter, a former West Coast scout for the Edmonton Eskimos, turned him on to the idea of playing in the Canadian Football League. Grymes took the advice and eventually flourished in his three-year stint with the Eskimos. In 2015, he became both a Grey Cup champion and a CFL all-star. During this offseason, Grymes signed with the Eagles and looks to finally start his NFL career in Philadelphia.
"It's really helped me mature mentally," Grymes said of his time in the CFL. "I've been in a couple of professional camps up there so just (learning) how to take care of my body, how to sleep, how to eat and how to attack the day. Come out here and not be wide-eyed because it's the NFL."
Defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz spoke highly of Grymes after Day 2 of Training Camp.
"Aaron is a smart player. He's multi-dimensional. He's played outside. He's played nickel. Just because our numbers are low right now, he is playing a little safety, but that's just because he knows what to do," Schwartz said.
"He has shown a good, confident attitude. You can't cover many guys if you're worried about getting beat and he's had that confidence to go up and challenge guys. I think that experience shows. The fact that he has played in a professional league and he's a little bit different than most of the other guys that are out here now because they are just out of college. He does have a little bit more confidence from his professional experience."
Grymes is getting back into the swing of playing football in the U.S. again. In the CFL, the field is noticeably larger, measuring about 10 yards longer and approximately 15 yards wider than an NFL field. There are 12 players on the field compared to the NFL's 11 and any back can move when the ball is snapped, allowing wide receivers to get a running start if they time it correctly. In addition, teams have only three downs to get a first down unlike the NFL's four.
"Yes, if you compare it to Canada." Grymes said. "The receivers get that running start so pretty much everything is different for me really. But I played in the States all my life, so they haven't asked me to do too much different from what I used to do in college. It's just getting used to their language; it's all the same football. I'm just still getting use to the language and some of the techniques they like to play."
The rookie cornerback also looks forward to adjusting to the NFL's accelerated pace. Fortunately, Grymes is accustomed to keeping up. Not only does he have his collegiate football career to lean back on, but he also sports an impressive athletic resume during his time at West Seattle High School. He played on the basketball team and in his junior year he ran track and finished fifth in the State 3A 100 meters while being named the Metro Sound Division Offensive MVP for football. When asked to compare the pace between the NFL and CFL, Grymes admitted there was a disparity.
"It's faster I'll say. The field is smaller than in Canada and the quarterback has a little bit of a better arm. My quarterback in Canada (Mike Reilly) is going to hate that I said that," Grymes teased. "But they have a little bit of a better arm so the ball comes out a bit faster."
To make things even more interesting, the heat has been far from friendly during Training Camp and Grymes took note of it.
"It's hot! It's really hot and I'm from the West Coast," Grymes said. "I'm from Seattle so it'll get hot, but it'll be dry air and you'll get a little bit of an ocean breeze. I feel like I'm swimming when I come out here. Arms wet, face wet, everything. It's hard to breathe out here."
Despite the humidity taking place during the first week of Training Camp, Grymes is solely focused on football and staying in touch with his family. His wife, Hannah, and daughter, Zoey, currently live over 2,000 thousand miles away in Moscow, Idaho and the time difference also poses some issues. However, thanks to the ability to video chat, Grymes stays up to date on the family and what's going on around him.
"I haven't been able to get out yet. I've matured a bit so I stay in my hotel room now. I haven't gotten to witness Philadelphia too much, but everywhere I go my wife looks up the city," Grymes said. "She says there's a lot of stuff to do out here, so I'm sure when we get a little bit of free time I'll probably tour the city and meet some of the great fans out here and have fun."
Grymes will get a taste of covering the team's primary receivers when the veterans take the field Thursday.
