Imagine, as 19th-century utopians often did, a society rich enough that fewer and fewer people need to work -- a society where leisure becomes universally accessible, where part-time jobs replace the regimented workweek, and where living standards keep rising even though more people have left the workforce altogether.
If such a utopia were possible, one might expect that it would be achieved first among the upper classes, and then gradually spread down the social ladder. First the wealthy would work shorter hours, then the middle class, and finally even high school dropouts would be able to sleep late, take four-day weekends and choose their own adventures -- "to hunt in the morning," as Karl Marx once prophesied, "fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, criticize after dinner ..."
Yet the decline of work isn't actually some wild Marxist scenario. It's a basic reality of 21st-century American life, one that predates the financial crash and promises to continue apace even as normal economic growth returns. This decline isn't unemployment in the usual sense, where people look for work and can't find it. It's a kind of post-employment, in which people drop out of the workforce and find ways to live, more or less permanently, without a steady job. So instead of spreading from the top down, leisure time -- wanted or unwanted -- is expanding from the bottom up. Long hours are increasingly the province of the rich.
Subsidizing the decline
Of course, nobody is hailing this trend as the sign of civilizational progress. Instead, the decline in blue-collar work is often portrayed in near-apocalyptic terms -- on the left as the economy's failure to supply good-paying jobs, and on the right as a depressing sign that government dependency is killing the American work ethic.
But it's worth linking today's trends to the older dream of a post-work utopia, because there are ways in which the decline in workforce participation is actually being made possible by material progress.
That progress can be hard to appreciate at the moment, but America's immense wealth is still our era's most important economic fact. "When a nation is as rich as ours," Scott Winship points out in an essay for Breakthrough Journal, "it can realize larger absolute gains than it did in the past . . . even if it has lower growth rates."
Our economy may look stagnant compared to the acceleration after World War II, but even disappointing growth rates are likely to leave the America of 2050 much richer than today.
Those riches mean that we can probably find ways to subsidize -- through public means and private -- a continuing decline in blue-collar work. Many of the Americans dropping out of the workforce are not destitute; they're receiving disability payments and food stamps, living with relatives, cobbling together work here and there, and often doing as well as they might with a low-wage job. By historical standards their lives are more comfortable than the left often allows, and the fiscal cost of their situation is more sustainable than the right tends to admit. (Medicare may bankrupt us, but food stamps probably will not.)
The social costs
There is a certain air of irresponsibility to giving up on employment altogether, of course. But while pundits who tap on keyboards for a living like to extol the inherent dignity of labor, we aren't the ones stocking shelves at Walmart or hunting wearily, week after week, for a job that probably pays less than our last one did. One could make the case that the right to not have a boss is actually the hardest won of modern freedoms. Should it really trouble us if more people in a rich society end up exercising it?
The answer is yes -- but mostly because the decline of work carries social costs as well as an economic price tag. Even a grinding job tends to be an important source of social capital, providing everyday structure for people who live alone, a place to meet friends and kindle romances for people who lack other forms of community, a path away from crime and prison for young men, an example to children and a source of self-respect for parents.
Here the decline in workforce participation is of a piece with the broader turn away from community in America -- from family breakdown and declining churchgoing to the retreat into the virtual forms of sport and sex and friendship. Like many of these trends, it poses a much greater threat to social mobility than to absolute prosperity. (A nonworking working class may not be immiserated; neither will its members ever find a way to rise above their station.)
And its costs will be felt in people's private lives and inner worlds even when they don't show up in the nation's GDP.
In a sense, the old utopians were prescient: We've gained a world where steady work is less necessary to human survival than ever before.
But human flourishing is another matter. And it's our fulfillment, rather than the satisfaction of our appetites, that's threatened by the slow decline of work.
A world without work
Imagine, as 19th-century utopians often did, a society rich enough that fewer and fewer people need to work -- a society where leisure becomes universally accessible, where part-time jobs replace the regimented workweek, and where living standards keep rising even though more people have left the workforce altogether.

Train listen man seriously no offense but everyone on this board including you had Bama to won the game big and everyone was wrong. I dont like LSU but I had them easily covering and I never saw any indication of taking Alabama. Your response is Bama fumbled on their own 7 and got a lucky break. You have to be kidding. First off lets just look at the boxscore without even looking at the play by play and tell me who dominated the game.
Choo Chooo CRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAASSSSSSSSHHHHHHH
lets update this. Tenn was not a winner. lets try 4-14 with most of his parlays and other bets losing. WoW. not counting his brutal beating on the side wagers during the week. You guys want winners follow tree88. He is the real deal.
Train, I laugh at a shmuck like you... nice record - oh, wait, you got your f**cking behind kicked!
Friggin idiot.
Let's go Train, lets go... Got anymore great selections????

Covers and the books bread winner!!
Tennessee lost so Train actually went 4-14 but that's not the point. The point is that Train is on this site nearly 24/7 providing useful info for other covers members and I still consider him an asset to the forum. Thanks Train for making me money as I tailed your Purdue and Nw plays. Keep up the great work that you've provided this season
You are awesome. Hard to knock someone when they have a bad day. Keep it up...
BTW, In case you didn't sense the sarcasm...you are wrong here.... You wanna knock someone for a losing weekend, you should go do it to one of the arrogant guys on this site...(I can give you a recommendation)....but train is one of the good guys.

Ivar Jacobson International (IJI) has announced the launch of the Alpha State Explorer App for iOS devices. This free app enables software development teams to track their project status, set objectives, and (hopefully) avoid failures by ensuring essential aspects of good software development practice are addressed.
The app is entirely method, process, and practice agnostic, and supports any type of software development, whether teams are using traditional methods, or more modern lean and agile techniques.
"The Alpha State Explorer app is a new offering, but the concepts it embodies have been proven over many years within our customer engagements, across many different types of projects, and within a variety of industries," said Sion Roberts, IJI CEO.
"The concept is simple: If checklists can keep aircraft in the sky, and save patient's lives in the operating theatre, then why not do the same for software projects? The checklists built in to the Alpha State Explorer app are the result of decades of collective experience, from a multitude of software professionals around the world."
The app supports the lightweight process framework known as The Essence Kernel, originally developed by the SEMAT group and in the process of becoming an industry standard under the OMG.
IJI Chairman and CTO Ivar Jacobson, commented: "In order to successfully scale up, and get the right balance of agility and governance, we need an ultra-lightweight, adaptable process framework, one that can work with any project — The Essence Kernel is such a framework, and the app is the latest offering to support it and make it widely available to the software development industry."

Death Killed a Sports Illustrated Cover
Industry leaders quail when it's suggested that horse racing is no longer relevant. But for a lesson in how far the sport has regressed in the media's consciousness, go no further than "Sports Illustrated: The Covers," a current coffee-table book that includes all of the front pages from the magazine since its inception in 1954. In Sports Illustrated's early years, it was not uncommon for racing to appear on its covers. Criminy, the magazine even had one cover that featured the opening of the season at Hialeah. Nothing else. The opening of Hialeah, period. Nowadays, even a good race-fixing scandal probably wouldn't tempt Sports Illustrated's cover editors.
Sports Illustrated's first Sportsman of the Year Award, in 1954, went to Roger Bannister, the sub-four-minute miler from England. The next year, according to "The Covers," the magazine was prepared to honor William Woodward Jr., who bred and raced Nashua. But shortly before that issue was to come out, Woodward, only 35, was killed by his wife with a shotgun in the middle of the night at their Long Island estate. His death, ruled an accident, was the first in a series of tragedies to befall the wealthy Woodwards. Their family curse made Arthur Conan Doyle's Baskervilles seem like pikers.
Podres seemed like a weak choice then, and he still does. Usually SI's top honor has gone to someone for a year-long body of work, and Podres, while winning one other game in that series, was a sub-.500 pitcher who at best was the No. 4 pitcher on the Brooklyn staff. The magazine would have been better served not to have strayed from Nashua, and given the accolade to Eddie Arcaro, who rode the colt in nine of his 10 wins during a Horse of the Year campaign. Arcaro also led the country in purses, with a total of almost $2 million, and won with 19% of his mounts, which for the uninitiated is a good batting average in riderdom.
Until now, the magazine had made no mention of the Podres-for-Woodward last-minute switch. In the 1955 Sportsman of the Year issue, it was said that a photographer was dispatched to Podres' hometown in the New York Adirondacks, where the pitcher donned a Dodger cap, uniform top and sweatshirt to pose. That's the chest-high shot of Podres that ran on the cover, not very flattering work for a publication that prided itself on its cutting-edge photography, but I suppose all of this was done without too much time to spare.
Back on page 27, in a section that highlighted the year, they ran a photo of the Woodwards--Billy, as he was called, and Ann, a onetime model from rural Kansas, with Arcaro and the trophy they won for their colt beating Swaps, the Kentucky Derby winner, in the celebrated match race at Washington Park.
There had been evidence of a prowler on the Woodward property, and the handsome couple, after attending a soiree for the Duchess of Windsor, had arrived home late on the last night of William Woodward's life. They slept in separate bedrooms, on opposite sides of a hall, and by mutual agreement both went to bed with firearms at the ready. They were experts with guns--on one hunting expedition, in the jungles of India, Ann Woodward had bagged a pair of Bengal tigers, one of which, 10 feet in length, was said to be the largest of its breed ever brought in by a woman.
When the police arrived just after 2 in the morning, they found the nude body of William Woodward, his face a bloody mess. Ann Woodward, in her bedroom, was hysterical and incoherent. The Woodwards' sons, ages 11 and 7, slept through the shooting. The Woodwards' barking dog awakened the couple, and Ann Woodward, the shotgun in hand, stepped into the hallway and fired at what she later said was a "shadow" across the hall.
William Woodward's grieving mother, who may have been no fan of her bluecollar-bred daughter-in-law to begin with, never bought into the official version of her son's death. There were bags of money, of course, awaiting the widow Woodward. Twenty years later, Ann Woodward, by now in her early 50s, killed herself. It was said that a magazine excerpt of an unpublished Truman Capote novel, which trashed a woman whom no one could miss for the real Woodward widow, had sent Ann Woodward over the brink. When she died by her own hand, her 90-something mother-in-law said: "Well, that's that. She shot my son, and Truman just murdered her, so now I suppose we don't have to worry about that anymore."
William and Ann Woodward's sons also became suicides. Jimmy, the youngest, who had given in to the demons of drugs, jumped to his death from a hotel window in 1976. Twenty-three years later, William Woodward III took a dry dive from the 14th floor of an apartment building.
As for Nashua, he sort of got his comeuppance in 1956, as a 4-year-old. Now owned by Leslie Combs II, he won some important races, including the Jockey Club Gold Cup, but he was beaten four times and Swaps was voted Horse of the Year. I don't know why, but it took until 1965 before Nashua was voted into the Racing Hall of Fame. He still belongs on that short list of "best horses never to have won the Kentucky Derby."
And Sports Illustrated's Sportsman of the Year? After the Woodward near-miss, the magazine didn't honor a racing figure until they gave the award to the apprentice Steve Cauthen in 1977. SI hasn't found a deserving horse or horseman since then. If Zenyatta wins the Breeders' Cup Classic again, she should send them a postcard.

Watch These People Who Are Terrified of Lobsters — Daily Distraction
[onescreen item="4997308"]
Lobsters have giant claws and a nasty temperament, but they're also DELICIOUS.
The delectable crustaceans do have a rather scary appearance, at least when they aren't fully cooked, bright red and sitting on your plate next to a shell cracker and a tub of melted butter. This makes them a delightful prop with which to frighten your unsuspecting friends and family members.
The Daily Distraction is your Internet break from reality. Whether you're eating lunch at your desk or avoiding high school exes on Facebook, you might just laugh, say "aaahhh" or not believe what you just watched.

Mushroom Lasagna Florentine - For Waist Watchers
From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...Lasagna needs little introduction. Years ago the word referred to a cooking pot, but it's now generally accepted to be a form of pasta or a layered dish that is cooked "al forno" - in the oven. We're all familiar with the classic lasagna made with several cheeses and sauce Bolognese, but modern kitchens have introduced meatless versions as well a theme and variation that uses seafood. We were introduced to this lower calorie version of mushroom lasagna by the folks who operate the Rain Forest Mushroom Company. Before we get to the recipe, I want to remind you that mushrooms should be placed in a brown paper bag and kept in your vegetable crisper for no more than 3 to 5 days. They should not be eaten raw. I'm guilty of breaking this rule, but you should be warned that medical professionals advise that raw mushrooms should not be eaten by the very young, the very old or those who have compromised immune systems. Now to today's recipe. It's not bad. I'm tired of classic lasagna and find the seafood versions to be too expensive for standard family fare. This is a natural progression for us. Here is the lower calorie version of mushroom lasagna. If you can't purchase the more exotic mushrooms feel free to use button or crimini mushrooms in their place. Mangia!
Mushroom Lasagna Florentine...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite
9 lasagna noodles (about 8-oz.)
3 cups 1% milk
1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 (10-oz.) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed, squeezed dry
1-1/2 cups finely chopped leeks of white onions
1/3 pound each Shiitake, Maitake and Oyster mushrooms finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1/4 cup flour
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided use
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons butter or oil
1/3 cup chopped parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
1) Cook pasta according to package directions. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Mist a 9 x 13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray. Set aside.
2) Place flour in a medium saucepan. Whisk in milk until blended. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook, stirring constantly, until thick, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat: stir in cottage cheese, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, nutmeg and spinach.
3) In a separate pan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in leeks or onions and cook until soft and translucent, about 7 minutes. Add mushrooms and stir in parsley, oregano and garlic. Cook just until garlic is fragrant.
4) Spread 1 cup spinach mixture on bottom of baking dish. Top with 3 lasagna noodle. Spread with 1-1/2 cups of mushroom mixture. Repeat layers ending with noodles. Top with remaining 1/2 cup spinach mixture. Cover pan with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Uncover pan: sprinkle with reserved 1/2 cup Parmesan and shredded mozzarella. Bake, uncovered, for 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Let stand 10 minutes befor serving. Yield: 9 servings.

I have always loved etymology--very interesting! You are still eating mushroom :) Does that make you a hoobie :) This is a good way to cut down on the calories!

I use cottage cheese in my lasagnas too. Melts the same as ricotta but lower in calories and often cheaper as well. I know some people turn up their noses, but it helps with the waistline too.

Hmmm, have not heard that before and I do eat the button mushrooms raw, rinsed but raw, on a salad often, though not the more exotic ones. I've also found that the green bags/boxes do help to keep mushrooms fresh longer also.
I love the close up shows of the layering. Nice! You lasagna looks yummy!

I hardly ever make lasagna because there are only two of us and because, as you said, of the waistline. We love mushrooms and will definitely give this one a try. It looks delicious, as always.

Thi sounds good -- I made Ina's mushroom lasagna and it was wonderful! Actually, I think you can get creative and put anything between the noodles -- using either red sauce or a bechamel sauce.

I didn't know consuming raw mushrooms was a health hazard. Thank you for the heads up.
This looks fantastic, I don't think one would miss the meat. Very savory and low-cal way to enjoy lasagna!

BD, anything can be used in the layers of a lasagna. Just be careful if you're using a white sauce that what you select goes well with dairy.

Reasons for Procedure
Reasons for Procedure
Colposcopy is usually done when a:
- Pap test is abnormal
- Human papillomavirus (HPV) test is positive for certain subtypes that place you at an increased risk for developing cancer
This procedure can be used to:
- Help diagnose cervical cancer or precancerous changes
- Give more information about abnormal cells found on a pap smear
- Find the location where a tissue biopsy should be done
- Monitor treatment of abnormalities of the cervix
- Allow a visual exam of the cervix, vaginal walls, or vulva
Possible Complications
Possible Complications
Complications are rare. But, no procedure is completely free of risk. If you are planning to have colposcopy, your doctor will review a list of possible complications. These may include:
- Bleeding
- Infection
- Discomfort

In the 24 hours before the procedure, your doctor may advise you to avoid:
- Having sexual intercourse
- Using medication or creams in your vagina
Usually no anesthesia is needed. In certain cases, the cervix may be numbed with a local anesthetic.
Description of the Procedure
A device called a speculum will be inserted into the vagina. The speculum will gently spread apart the vaginal walls. The inside of the vagina and the cervix will be easier to see. The colposcope will be placed at the opening of the vagina. Then, the cervix will be wiped with a solution. The solution will make abnormal areas easier to see. The cervix and vagina will be examined closely with the colposcope. A long tool may be used to take a sample of tissue from the cervix or vaginal wall.
How Long Will It Take?
About 5-10 minutes
How Much Will It Hurt?
This procedure is usually painless. If a biopsy is taken, you may feel a slight pinch and mild cramping.
Post-procedure Care
When you return home after the procedure, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery if you had a biopsy done:
- You may need to use a sanitary pad for a few days.
- Do not put anything into your vagina for at least a week.
- Do not use tampons or have sex until your doctor says it is okay.
Results from a biopsy should be ready in about one week. The results will determine whether you need more testing or treatment.
Call Your Doctor
Call Your Doctor
After arriving home, contact your doctor if any of the following occurs:
- Heavy bleeding
- Fever, chills
- Severe pain
- Bad-smelling vaginal discharge
In case of an emergency, call for emergency medical services right away.

The frequency of check-ins reveals a lot about your way of working. When I'm coding, I check-in very frequently. By "very frequently" I mean sometimes I'm checking-in every time I get something done, and this can be a very small refactor that only took two minutes. This approach means that I create an enormous collection of check-ins.
Sometimes I check-in code that it is not even complete or not even working. I do that in order to "explain what I'm doing." I can create as many check-ins as I need without breaking the build or bothering my teammates because I'm using a separate branch. I create a branch for each entry in our issue-tracking system and then I check-in as often as I need.
My check-ins look something like Figure 1.
Figure 1.
Mine would be
14, and
I really prefer mapping branches to individual tasks for several reasons, but one of them is to create a clean and simple link between tasks and code. It is also very easy to review
task001: You just diff the branch.
Now let me explain why I don't like using a single working branch as a shared place to check-in.
Shared Working Branch?
If the entire team uses the same branch to check-in, chances are that a task will look like Figure 2:
Figure 2.
Unless you're lucky enough to finish all your work on a single check-in, your task likely will be split into several check-ins, which are sprinkled in the middle of other unrelated check-ins. This makes code review much harder because you need to diff each changeset. When working this way, it is common to end up setting mechanisms to send the changes to be code reviewed prior to being checked in…while it would be much easier to just code review the branch and only get it merged when it is correctly reviewed. I say "mechanisms" because I've seen tools creating temporary patches, pushing to different repositories, and all sorts of overly complicated solutions to avoid creating a "task branch" and just let things flow.
Branches as Units of Change
Hence, I strongly prefer using branches as units of change (one branch for each task), instead of individually linking each changeset as part of a change (task). At the end of the day, the branch acts simply and efficiently as an organized changeset container.
Nowadays, continuous delivery proponents tend to default to "avoid branches at all costs," especially when describing excellent results for huge teams (Facebook- or Google-sized), but I still think branching is an extraordinarily good tool for most teams out there (in fact, also for huge ones, but I'll discuss that in a later article).
Tell a Story
Returning to the "branch per task" approach: How often do you check-in and why do you check-in? Suppose you have to fix a bug, but decide to rearrange the code before applying the fix, so the fix ends up being trivial. There are several ways to do the job: One is to do all changes and then check-in. I'll call it a "big bang check-in." This is a common pattern for people not accustomed to working on their own task branch because this is what you tend to do in a shared branch (see Figure 3).
Figure 3.
Suppose the change actually involves the following:
- Split the class
Storageinto two:
- Create a new class for
- Rename all references to the old
Storagemodifying 15 files.
- Adapt the unit tests (modifying another 4 files).
- Then fix the bug in
The developer doing the code review will diff the branch (or the changeset) and see a list of 20 modified files plus a new file.
He will take some time looking into the code before really understanding that most of the changes are just related to the refactor, and the bug fix actually takes only a few lines inside the new
FileStorage.Write() method.
Telling a Story Check-in After Check-in
Now, suppose the developer decides to explain the story of the bug fix check-in after check-in as in Figure 4.
Figure 4.
The reviewer can quickly check the comments of the changesets in the branch
task001 and find out that the real change is in
cs:15. He might even take a look at
cs:15 to check if the change is OK before actually going back and review the rest of the changes. Also, simply "replaying" what the developer did changeset after changeset will be much easier to understand than dealing with the entire diff.
It may sound counter-intuitive because one of the advantages of task branches over "shared working branches" is the ability to group the changes and avoid going "cset by cset" to see changes, and now I'm proposing exactly the opposite: go cset by cset. But it is important to note that the type of check-ins you can do with task branches are not like the many check-ins you do on a shared branch. With task branches, you can split your task into steps, explaining what you've done step-by-step, something unlikely to be done when you deliver to a shared branch.
Big Reviews Put You Off
Additionally, the whole point of "telling a story with check-ins" is to help the reviewer when facing the code review. If he sees a big bunch of files to be reviewed, he'll instantly think, "Oh, wow, that's big. It is going to take a while to complete," which is really discouraging.
On the other hand, if he knows that the real change is not that big because he can quickly glance through the individual changes and understand how the developer proceeded, chances are he'll be in a better frame of mind to get the task reviewed, even if he's reviewing the same number of lines of code. It is all about better communicating the task and helping simple things look simple.
Positive Side Effects of Changeset Storytelling
If you end up working this way, you'll be using your version control not only to track what has been done but also how it was done.
Capturing how changes are actually done has several advantages:
- It will help the reviewer better understanding the changes.
- You can use the task branch to teach new team members how certain operations are performed or how more-experienced developers work. At the end of the day, you'll be capturing a sort of "task recording" of the steps performed to complete it.

"Knit Picks' most popular sock yarn, Felici, now comes in eight new limited edition colorways, each with a unique, evenly spaced striping pattern…Try this fiber in a larger garment, such as a sweater, and it simulates an intricate Fair Isle design." Cast On, Aug-Oct 08
"This Superwash Merino blend is super-duper soft…Have fun with the stripes in other projects besides socks." Knit N Style, October 08
"Self-striping yarn for socks is the latest rave in the knitting community. Knit Picks has introduced an entire new line of self-striping sock yarns- one of the colorways is sure to attract your eye." Loom Knitters Circle, July 08
"It knits up well, the yarn is incredible soft, the finished product is comfortable to wear, and Felici holds up well to washing…Felici has quickly become a favorite of many sock knitters." Knitting Purls, July 08
"Felici is a play on the Italian word for "happy" and "glad" - your feet will be dancing with joy! The superwash Merino is 19.5 microns (layman's translation: super-duper soft). The nylon lends strength and durability to the wool, making it suitable for the constant wear socks get. And the machine washability means you will be wearing them constantly." Kaboodle.com
"…These are-wonder of wonders-colors I'd choose to use. And the stripes are real, bold stripes, which I prefer even though I acknowledge that make my ankles look fat. And, you know, the stuff is from Knit Picks, so it's inexpensive but good quality- not much of a gamble." The Panopticon, September 2008
"The yarn is Knit Picks Felici in Schooner…These are colors I'd choose if I were any good at picking colors; Felici stripes are bold, strong stripes and not wimpy, indeterminate stripes." The Panopticon, January 2009
"I've decided it's time to try Knit Picks Imagination and Felici sock yarns. I really like the new Felici colorways…For the Imagination sock yarn, I've been pleasantly surprised on Ravelry or in person by colorways that previously didn't impress me much. The colorways I've always liked are…well wait, I really like them ALL to varying degrees." www.jmfknits.blogspot.com, January 2009
"The bold stripes of Felici make it useful for more than just socks. I knit my son a hat with it and it couldn't have been easier. Self striping yarns maximize the effect of simple colorwork techniques, which means less ends to weave in! And when my son gets the hat dirty—as babies do—I can toss it in the washer and dryer without a second thought!"

Life with diabetes can seem complicated with glucose levels to monitor, medications to remember, and meals to plan. It can feel like your condition consumes your whole life. Complicated meal planning strategies only add to the confusion. But a simpler meal planning solution may work for you. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) considers counting carbohydrates (carbs) to be a key strategy for meeting glucose level goals.
The Basics of Counting Carbs
When you eat foods that contain carbs your blood glucose levels increase. By eating the right amount of the right kind of carbs, you can keep your glucose levels in your desired range. Carbs come in 3 varieties: starches, sugars, and fiber.
- Starches (complex carbohydrates) are foods like grains, legumes, and starchy vegetables, such as potatoes or corn.
- Sugars can be natural (like those in fruit and milk) or added (like the sugary syrup in canned fruit).
- Fiber can be found in foods like fruit (especially fruits with edible skin, like apples), vegetables, nuts , legumes, and whole grains.
Knowing the number of carbs you need to eat each day is important to make carb-counting work for you. It will be based on several factors, including your activity level and any medications you take to control your glucose levels. Work with your doctor or dietitian to learn how many carbs you need to eat at each meal and snack. For example, you may have a goal of eating about 45-60 grams of carbs at each meal.
Planning a Meal by Counting Carbs
Where can you find the number of carbs in your food? Start with the nutrition facts label. Look for "total carbohydrate" on the label. This number accounts for carbs from starches, sugars, and fiber.
It is easy enough to count carbs if you have access to the nutrition facts labels of all your foods, but what about if you are eating at a restaurant? And what about foods that do not have a label, like fruits and vegetables? By knowing the number of carbs you need at each meal and the average number of carbs in a serving from each food group, you can plan a healthy meal that meets your dietary requirements. You can use these averages to count the carbs in your meal:
By following this table, you know that one serving of oatmeal with milk has 27 grams of carbs:
15 (starch) + 12 (milk) = 27 grams of carbs
Knowing your serving sizes is also important. Measuring equipment, like a food scale, measuring cups, and measuring spoons, can help you keep your portions on track. You can also keep general serving sizes in mind to help you estimate when you cannot measure exactly. For example, there is about 15 grams of carbs in:
- 1 small piece of fruit (4 ounces)
- ½ cup canned or frozen fruit
- 1 slice of bread (1 ounce)
- ½ cup cooked cereal
- ¼ of a large baked potato
- ½ cup ice cream
- 2/3 cup plain fat-free yogurt
- 1 cup milk
- 2 small cookies
You may also want to have a carb-counting reference book. You can also download an app on your cell phone or tablet.
Filling Up With Fiber
Since fiber is not digested the same way as other carbs, you can subtract half the amount of fiber from the total carbs in any food that has more than 5 grams of fiber in a serving. As an added bonus, fiber-rich foods contribute to digestive health and keep you feeling full longer. A healthy diet should have at least 25-30 grams of fiber each day. Most of us get less than this, so any increase of fiber in your diet is a plus. Choosing whole-grain products will help you meet your fiber goals (and get some of the vitamins and minerals that are lost in refined products).
All Carbs Are Not Created Equal
It is possible to eat the right number of carbs but all the wrong foods. For example, a small piece of fresh fruit has the same number of carbs as ½ cup of the same canned fruit. But eating a fresh pear is far more nutritious, not only are you skipping all that refined sugar, you are also getting an extra dose of fiber from the pear's skin. So count your carbs, but remember to make overall healthy choices and incorporate a variety of healthy foods into your diet.

An atrial septal defect is a hole in the wall between the 2 upper chambers (right and left atriums) of the heart. A transcatheter procedure is a minimally-invasive way to repair the hole. During this procedure, a device is implanted to seal the hole. As your child recovers, the device will trigger the heart tissue to grow. The tissue will slowly grow over the hole.
Reasons for Procedure
Reasons for Procedure
If a child is born with a hole between the upper chambers of the heart, the blood can flow backward into the right side of the heart and into the lungs. This triggers the heart to work harder. Over time, this can lead to damage to blood vessels in the lungs and congestive heart failure. The procedure is done to fix the hole.
Blood Flow Through the Heart
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Most children who have this procedure will have good outcomes.
Possible Complications
Possible Complications
Complications are rare, but no procedure is free of risk. Possible complications may include:
- Bleeding at the point of the catheter insertion
- Damage to arteries
- Allergic reaction to x-ray dye
- Blood clot formation
- Infection, including endocarditis, an infection of the inner lining of the heart muscle
- Reaction to the anesthesia, such as light-headedness and wheezing
- Blood clot formation
- Arrhythmia —abnormal heart beat
Before your child's procedure, talk to the doctor about ways to manage factors that may increase your child's risk of complications such as chronic disease such as diabetes or obesity.
Low birth weight or a recent infection may increase the risk of complications.
What to Expect
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
A physical exam will be done. Tests may include:
- Blood and urine tests
- Echocardiogram —a test that uses sound waves to visualize functioning of the heart
- Electrocardiogram (ECG, EKG)—a test that records the heart's activity by measuring electrical currents through the heart muscle
- Chest x-ray —a test that uses radiation to take a picture of structures inside the chest
You will be told whether your child needs to stop taking certain medication.
Ask when your child should stop eating or drinking before the surgery.
General anesthesia will be used. It will block any pain and keep your child asleep through the surgery. It is given through an IV in the hand or arm.
Description of the Procedure
Your child will receive IV fluid and medicines through a vein in his arm. The catheter (small tube) will be inserted either in the arm or groin. Next, electrodes will be placed on the chest. These electrodes will send information to the EKG machine, allowing the heart to be monitored.
A catheter will be inserted in the blood vessel and advanced so the end is in the heart. Dye will be injected to allow the doctor to view x-ray images of the heart. An echocardiogram may also be used. Before the hole can be covered, the doctor will need to find out the size of the hole. A catheter with a balloon attached to it will be sent to the upper chambers of the heart. The balloon will inflate and measure the hole.
Once the size of the defect is known, another catheter will be sent to the heart. This catheter will have a device attached. There are different types of devices available. Some are able to open so that the hole is covered on both sides. Other devices open like an umbrella to cover the defect. Once the device is placed, the catheter will be removed. Lastly, a bandage will be placed over the insertion site.
Immediately After Procedure
Your child will be closely monitored in the intensive care unit (ICU). The hospital staff will:
- Place pressure on the insertion site and apply a pressure bandage
- Have your child lie flat
How Long Will It Take?
1-2 hours
How Much Will It Hurt?
Your child will have pain and soreness. Your child will be given pain medication.
Average Hospital Stay
The usual length of stay is 2-4 days. In some cases, your child may be able to go home as soon as the next day. The doctor may choose to keep your child longer if there are complications.
Post-procedure Care
At the Hospital
When your child is recovering at the hospital, the hospital staff may:
- Do tests, such as an EKG, chest x-ray, and blood tests.
- Have your child lie still and flat for several hours. This is to prevent bleeding.
- Place a pressure bandage to reduce bleeding.
- Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids to flush the dye from his body.
- Give pain medication to ease discomfort.
During your stay, the hospital staff will take steps to reduce your child's chance of infection such as:
- Washing their hands
- Wearing gloves or masks
- Keeping your child's incisions covered
There are also steps you can take to reduce your child's chances of infection such as:
- Washing your hands and your child's hands often and reminding visitors and healthcare providers to do the same
- Reminding your child's healthcare providers to wear gloves or masks
- Not allowing others to touch your child's incisions
At Home
When your child returns home, do the following:
- Encourage your child to rest. Have him avoid strenuous activities. He will slowly return to his normal routine.
- Follow all of the doctor's instructions.
Call Your Child's Doctor If Any of the Following Occurs
Call Your Child's Doctor If Any of the Following Occurs
After your child leaves the hospital, call the doctor if any of the following occurs:
- Signs of infection, including fever and chills
- Increased sweating
- Redness, swelling, increasing pain, excessive bleeding, or any discharge from the catheter insertion site
- Nausea and/or vomiting
- Lightheadedness
- Increased pain
- Fatigue
- Rash
- Loss of appetite or poor feeding
- Not drinking enough fluids
- Not urinating
Call for Medical Help Right Away If Any of the Following Occurs
Call for medical help or go to the emergency room right away if any of the following occurs in your child:
- Fast breathing or trouble breathing
- Blue or gray skin color
- Not waking up or not interacting
- Chest pain
- Heart palpitations
- Weakness or fainting
- Signs of a stroke, such as drooping facial muscles, changes in vision or speech, and difficulty walking
In case of an emergency, call for emergency medical services right away.

Huskers Celebrate at Banquet
Lincoln - A crowd of more than 300 gathered at the Lincoln Station on Thursday night to celebrate Nebraska's successful 2012-13 women's basketball season at the program's year-end banquet.
Fun-filled addresses from Nebraska Coach Connie Yori and radio play-by-play announcer Matt Coatney highlighted the evening's festivities, along with a pair of heartfelt and meaningful farewell speeches from seniors Lindsey Moore and Meghin Williams.
The Huskers joined with hundreds of Fastbreaker Booster Club members, family, friends and athletic staff members in celebrating Nebraska's 2013 NCAA Sweet 16 season. NU finished 25-9 overall, including 12-4 in the Big Ten. The Huskers finished No. 16 in the final NCAA RPI, No. 16 in the final national attendance rankings and No. 18 in the final USA Today/Coaches Top 25.
A season highlight video produced by HuskerVision's Amanda Holzwarth showcased Nebraska's journey through the 2012-13 campaign, while a special Senior Video honored the contributions of Moore and Williams throughout their Husker careers. A light-hearted blooper video also showed fans a behind-the-scenes look into the personalities of the players on one of the most successful women's basketball teams in school history.
The two-hour banquet included the presentation of Nebraska's team awards. Moore earned NU's Offensive MVP Award, after having a hand in 44 percent of the Huskers' made field goals in 2012-13. Sophomore Emily Cady claimed the team's Defensive MVP Award after leading the team in blocked shots and ranking among the top Huskers in both steals and defensive rebounds.
Williams and sophomore Katie Simon shared NU's Teammate Award, while junior forward Jordan Hooper captured the Husker Award.
The team also presented a pair of first-time awards in 2012-13. Cady and fellow sophomore Hailie Sample shared the Kathy Branchaud Most Improved Rebounder Award, while Nate Schlautman was named Nebraska's Most Dedicated Practice Player.

Watch These Dogs Whose Heads Got Stuck in Bags — Daily Distraction
[onescreen item="5029273"]
Who among us hasn't gone diving head-first into the Tostitos bag in search of that last delicious chip?
These dogs started with the same sort of dilemma, only they didn't quite think their plan all the way through. Also, they have much bigger ears than we humans do, and sometimes head-from-bag extraction becomes a problem as a result of such wonderfully furry physical characteristics.
The Daily Distraction is your Internet break from reality. Whether you're eating lunch at your desk or avoiding high school exes on Facebook, you might just laugh, say "aaahhh" or not believe what you just watched.

Better than the 2013 Platinum
By old dude on Friday, June 30, 2017I stepped down from a Platinum to a Lariat, but the Lariat is not a step down. The 3.5 L Ecoboost with the 10 speed trany is a huge step up. New electronic additions like auto high beams, blind spot aid, improved rear camera with trailer hook up help, improved voice command structure and Android connectivity make the 2017 truly a pleasure to drive. Freeway entry is easy and safe even in heavy traffic because of the power and quickness of the V-6 and 10 speed. I have owned 2 King Ranch superdutys and the F 150 Plaimun, but this is without a doubt the best of them all.

Top of the full size class.
By CollierFL on Sunday, September 03, 2017After owning several Chevy full size trucks. I decided to test drive Ford and Ram in addition to Chevy while shopping for a new vehicle. I was very impressed with the Ford from the nice interior layout and engine options. I felt after driving all three trucks the Ford was my best option. I have nearly 12,000 miles on the truck and have not had one issue.Im very pleased with my Ford purchase.

Couldn't be more impressed
By jldude on Tuesday, May 10, 2016So I used to have an older Ranger, and it was time to get rid of it before it rusted out from under me at the worst time and got me killed. I did not want a full size truck, I perceived them as too big, too hard to park, too heavy, and inferior fuel economy. I didn't feel there was any reason to have such a large vehicle as I rarely hauled anything but kayaks and my motorcycle on occasion. I was in the market for another Ranger, hopefully without rust. I never intended to buy an F-150. But let me tell you the first time I drove this thing I fell in love. Sure, I was leery about buying the first year model of the first aluminum truck ever, higher insurance costs, blahblahblah. All these concerns started to disappear when I heard this Coyote V8 purr as quiet as a Lexus, and they completely disappeared when I put the pedal to the floor. This engine is a beast and, in a lightweight body such as this, it hauls tail in an instant. 9,000 miles later, I've yet to find a single design fault or reliability problem and I couldn't be happier. It actually gets better mpg in every driving condition than my old Ranger(even though it's still heavier and much more powerful). I average 18 real world city mpg, and I've seen over 23mpg highway at 55mph(average 21-22mpg highway). And when you need to get somewhere quick, you mash the pedal and she downshifts to 2nd or 3rd and rockets ahead with an amazing exhaust note. So far I've only noticed two real downsides, and both are simply due to trim level/option(s) choice. The first is the lack of satellite radio capability despite being equipped with SYNC(seems like an upgraded audio system should come with sat radio standard since basic Kia Rios come with it). The 2nd(and most dearly missed), is the lack of a backup camera. A vehicle this size should have at least a cheap $120 backup camera system standard in my opinion. I have also noticed that some of the exterior panel fit/finish is a bit less precise than you'd expect(not sure if it was intended to be so because every aluminum F-150 I've seen on the dealer lots have the same panel gaps and fitment quirks). You can look down the side of the truck in the driver's side mirror, and see the doors aren't perfectly aligned with the box panels, but it doesn't affect door seals or anything. Bottom line, this truck is king of the hill for a dang good reason. I encourage you to test drive one(hopefully with a V8, but even the turbo V6 version will impress), and put the hammer down and decide for yourself.
