Blockbuster dreams quashed, Ironwood drops AstraZeneca's $1.3B gout drug disaster
AstraZeneca paid $1.3 billion to buy the experimental gout drug lesinurad. They handed over US rights to Ironwood $IRWD for much, much less two years ago — after it was approved on mixed efficacy and safety data. And now the Cambridge, MA-based biotech is punting it back after watching the treatment flounder on the market.
Ironwood dismissed lesinurad (Zurampic) in its Q2 report. CEO Peter Hecht summed it up this way:
After initiating the lesinurad market tests in early 2018 and assessing the results in July, we have decided to terminate our licensing agreement with AstraZeneca in its entirety. This action is not taken lightly, but it is an important decision that we believe enables us to allocate capital to the highest return opportunities and drive growth. We are working to maintain appropriate availability of lesinurad for patients and physicians during the termination period.
The drug — once a Hecht favorite before activist investor Alex Denner started to press for a revamp — contributed only $1.1 million in Q2 topline revenue out of the $81 million recorded at Ironwood. Now Hecht is exiting out of his $265 million deal with AstraZeneca as Ironwood looks to spin off its R&D operations into a new company in the first half of 2019 in a quest to become commercially successful.
Ironwood is also laying off 125 staffers in the reorganization, most sales staff that had been devoted to the launch failure. The biotech's shares were down about 4% in early afternoon trading.
There's no immediate word what AstraZeneca plans to do with lesinurad.
The drug fell short of hitting all its primary endpoints in a slate of three late-stage studies, and a slight minority of 6 of the FDA's expert advisers fretted that the drug's safety profile did not merit an approval, leaving AstraZeneca with a narrow one-vote margin in its favor. (The advisory group voted 10 to 4 for an approval.) And those safety concerns were also reflected in the agency's internal review. Nevertheless, the FDA approved it in late 2015.
None of that will improve the drug's profile for any prospective partner. And now that it's a bust on the market, the therapy — once tapped as a blockbuster after being shoved forward as a top late-stage prospect — is even more tarnished.

text: PICK UP THE TORCH! By Dr. Ronald P. Rozzi Ms.D., RHy. It wasn?t too long ago that I read an entry on a friends Facebook page that simply read, ?Life really sucks!? Well, I?ve known this individual since high school and although I haven?t personally seen or been around him in many years, knowing what I know about him, I?d have to say he?s had a pretty darn good life up to now. Of course, I don?t really know what it was that prompted him to such an expression on social media for all the world to see, and I won?t say he wasn?t at least partially justified in his opinion for that moment. Concerned comments from friends immediately began to pour in, inquiring of his wellbeing, and advising him to ?hang in there.? Now I don?t usually stick my nose into other people?s business, especially on social media, but that comment he?d made really got me thinking. I had to say something to my old friend regardless of the fact we hadn?t connected in years. I simply said that in the face of bad times that we all encounter, sometimes more frequently than we?d like, we need to take stock of all the good we have in our life. Get your mind out of the dark place and light it up with the good stuff. Don?t tell me you don?t have it because you?d be lying to yourself. Happy memories, fun times, the love you share with family and friends. Come on. There?s no one that doesn?t have at least some of those to put in the plus column of their life. Darkness, whether in a room or a time of your life is simply the absence of light. I pray that whatever crisis my friend was suffering from at that time has since been resolved and all is well. I?ve always known him to be resilient and he has a loving family. Well, I know what you?re thinking about now; ?if he?s a friend, why didn?t you check up on him?? The answer to that is because I simply gave him a torch to help him see through his darkness. Did Page 14 - Au gu st , 2017

In new construction homes, you are left with a beautiful blank canvas to design and decorate your new home to exude your personal style and a reflection of your taste. Decorating your home has become a bit more involved these days with different methods of not only how the aesthetics should look but where to put things and why. Additionally, there is the Konmari method of simplifying your belongings and the art of feng shui of creating a space with good energy.
With over 100 years of combined homebuilding experience, at Homes By Guardian, we've watched as homeowners transform what we build into a home. We take it upon ourselves to pay close attention to detail in the trims we use to how the wood flooring is laid, so you can move in and enjoy the decorating process. We build exceptional quality homes and combine them with amazing neighborhood amenities to create community. If you're looking for a fresh take on what being a homeowner looks like, peruse through our Thomas Heights or The Pointe communities. If creating a beautiful space where people can gather is what you envision for your new home, follow along as we look at the decorating method of feng shui.
What is Feng Shui?
Feng shui translates to "wind and "water" and stems from ancient Chinese culture and is the practice of the belief that the land, or your home, is alive and brimming with energy (chi). To evoke the positive and beneficial in your home, there is a method to follow in how you decorate and place items to avoid misfortune. You're probably familiar with yin and yang, or the opposing forces that also cannot exist without one another. Feng shui helps to mediate this energy and help balance the energy, thus the experience you'll have in a certain space.
Yin and Yang Expanded
Yin and yang are at the heart of feng shui and aims to create a good energy flow within your home to bring a happy, successful, and content life. The opposites of yin and yang are dependent upon each other and for harmony to exist, their duality must always be balanced. To create a balance in the household, incorporating the five elements — wood, fire, earth, water, and metal — and their associated colors help balance the energies.
Decorating According to the Feng Shui Bagua
The feng shui bagua (pronounced bog-wha) is a map based on old Chinese wisdom of the I Ching. The bagua ties the connection of different rooms in your home with the different aspects of your life to help improve the flow of energy in the way furniture and decorations are placed. A common example of this would be if you're trying to enhance love or relationship energy you can position a wedding photo in a specific place, according to the bagua.
Feng shui can be as simple or intricate as you want to make it but relies on the foundation of balancing yin and yang energies to create harmony in your household. You can further explore feng shui with the bagua to set up a space and call upon energies in which you wish to incorporate. For further expansion into the method of feng shui decorating, stay tuned for part two!

text: This is a pretty straight forward trade. The daily Transportation Index ETF $IYT jumped from $173 to $187 in three days. First, this makes it overbought for a swing trade short. Then you note the major trend line price hit today that stretches back to 2015 and the multiple technical indicators screaming overbought. Lastly, add in that this run is factoring in tax reform, which means there will be little further risk even if tax reform gets through (which is likely). This is a solid risk/reward swing trade short. I would like to see a pull back minimally to $168.00.

"Suzie did not know about the barn owl who now sat high on the rafters watching the whole barn. Owls love to eat little snakes."
About the Book
Suzie Slither is a beautiful little green snake. She is fourteen inches long and has pretty orange and brown stripes all over her body.
Suzie is very curious and adventurous. She would leave her home in the Missouri farm, go to places, hunt for food, and meet her friends.
Follow Suzie as she goes on numerous adventures, escapes hunting owls, meets new animals, and gets in all sorts of trouble, along with her friends Tammy Turtle, Ronny Raccoon, and many more!
"It portrays adventure, friendship, curiosity, danger, and a providential resolution. It also contained wonderful creativity with unpredictable circumstances and partnerships. I thought the snake and turtle friendship was grand. Congratulations on another successful story."
Scott WilliamsPrincipal, Christian Fellowship School
"I love this book! Both the narrative and the graphics are truly exceptional. Those who met Suzie in the first volume will find the same fascinating personality getting herself into another exciting adventure, this time partnered with a special cross-species friend. This story proves that Mrs. Birchler's initial brilliant foray into telling a Suzie story was no fluke."
Rose Marie W.
"My family really enjoyed this creative story about perseverance and trying new things."
Angie S.
"Just as Suzie leaned over the edge to see better, the small round rock she was on rolled over the edge, and both the rock and Suzie went plummeting toward the water."

text: Stones 795 Posted September 12, 2017 Following a comment from @Nickfromwales about once being asked by a QS to fill stud voids with plasterboard offcuts to reduce waste disposal costs, thought it would be interesting to discuss the pros and cons of doing so. What are everyone's thoughts? I can see the rationale for doing this on cost grounds, and the possible sound deadening benefits if using whole pieces well fitted into the void.

This Saturday, in cities from Boston to Los Angeles, youth-led demonstrations will call for urgent gun reform, saying there should never again be another mass tragedy like the one the nation saw last month in Parkland, Florida.
One of the largest marches is expected to be in Washington, D.C., and Vermonters are planning to travel there to be a part of it.
"There needs to be a change in laws," said Phoebe Hickin, a first-year student at Vermont's Randolph Union High School, who is about to make the long trip to Washington, D.C.
The latest news from around the state
Hickin is one of 12 Randolph students traveling to D.C. with four adults to take part in what's been named the March for Our Lives, at which organizers and participants will call for more stringent gun controls to cut mass shootings—especially in schools.
"It's such a horrible thing for a child to go through—I don't think it should happen to anyone else," Hickin said of violence at school.
Marissa Parisi of Shelburne, Vermont is also traveling to D.C. for Saturday's march.
Parisi said she and her husband were inspired by how young survivors of the recent Parkland, Florida school massacre have demanded safer communities.
"These kids have lived their whole childhood in fear that a school shooting can happen," Parisi told necn. "And as adults and voters, we wanted to go, stand by them, listen to them, and help them make the change that they're seeking."
The nationwide debate on guns also has featured plenty of passion from supporters of gun rights.
"I definitely feel that my individual rights are under assault, and so do the people I represent," said Bill Moore, a volunteer firearms policy analyst with the Vermont Traditions Coalition.
High school senior Hunter Brassard is part of Randolph's delegation to the D.C. march, but he said he plans to mostly observe, focusing on a documentary project.
"I'm a hunter, I am a gun owner—I like my guns and don't want them taken away," Brassard said.
Still, he said he expects the demonstration in D.C. to be powerful and historic, adding that he hopes more towns nationwide can be like Randolph, and have civil conversations on guns that involve diverse views.
For Vermonters not traveling to the nation's capital, a March for Our Lives rally is taking place Saturday at noon outside the Vermont Statehouse in Montpelier.
The Montpelier rally is expected to draw thousands of participants and run until 2 p.m., organizers said. It will embrace a spirit of solidarity with Parkland youth, the event director said.

Christmas is just around the corner. And you know what that means. Apart from the extravagant house decorations, long holiday and crazy gift buying and wrapping, there is always your company's Christmas party. This can be that one time in the year where you get to impress your workmates from another angle – not just on how good you are at your work but also at rocking an awesome outfit. So, there's a lot to consider and prepare to make things work. Here are five ways on how to suit up for your company's Christmas party.
Dress To The Theme
Standing out isn't always a goodthing. If people look at you in a bad way instead of being in awe then there'ssomething wrong and it may be because of what you're wearing. The party mighthave said that the theme is black and white, yet you come in bright red. You'llbe sticking out like a sore thumb. So, the number one thing to consider whenchoosing what to wear for your party is its theme. And just because you don'tlike it, doesn't mean you shouldn't go with it. Be in with everyone else.You'll have more fun that way, too.
Dress To Impress
When going to a party, what willpeople be looking at when a person enters the room? Their outfit. And thatmakes it a big must for you to wear a dress that will impress. Afterconsidering the theme, find a dress that fits you perfectly and one that accentuates your beautiful curves. If you livein the area, you can go ahead and check out dress hire in Adelaide to find an outfit like this.
Going Overboard Is A Big No-No
Sure it's a must to dress upextravagantly but one thing you also need to make sure is that you should notand should never ever go overboard or over the top. For example, if the themeis "Red Carpet" don't think a dress that drapes over 2 meters long isgreat. That's just too much. At the end of the party, you want people to talk about you because on how great youlooked that night, not on how "trying hard" you were because you wentoverboard.
Go For Accessories But Don't Go Too Wild
To better emphasize what you are wearing, accessories are always the way to go. But the thing about accessories is that they too should not be taken over the top. You need to suit these to what you are wearing. Like if you're wearing a turtleneck dress, you can wear a simple necklace if your dress isn't shiny and studded.
Complete From Top To Bottom
After all that, the last thing thatwill complete your whole look for your company's Christmas party is what shoesyou'll be wearing. Even if you're wearing a long gown, that doesn't give yousomewhat a leeway to choose bad shoes that don't match. Also, the height shouldcomplement the dress' length.

Kanye Reveals His New Album Title & It's Just As Cryptic As You'd Expect — PHOTO
Since last December, there's been speculation about whether Kanye West is working on an a new album to be released in 2015. The rumors reportedly started going around when the website for Rihanna's charity auction offered a package including tickets to an unspecified "Kanye West Tour Experience" at some point in 2015. Despite quietly dropping the news of an upcoming tour, West remained quiet and hasn't confirmed or denied rumors of a Yeezus follow-up album until now. On Saturday night, West revealed his new album title So Help Me God on Twitter, along with a photo of the possible cover art.
According to Rolling Stone, Redditors say the cryptic image West posted along with the news is a "13th century monastic symbol for the Virgin Mary," which kind of makes sense of the whole "Ye Olde Yeezy Album Announcement" vibe happening in the tweet. West's new album doesn't have a release date yet, and chances are we won't be getting one at all. Rolling Stone reports that in an interview last February with New York hip-hop station Power 105, West called release dates "100% played out," and confirmed that So Help Me God will "arrive in a 'surprise' fashion" a la Beyonce, and more recently, Drake.
The rapper also told Power 105 that his new album "comes out of a fight to design," possibly suggesting themes derived from his recent experience navigating a career in fashion. Unlike his previous album, however, West reportedly said that his new album will be a lot less heavy in terms of the sound and subject matter, and "is just embracing the music, embracing joy and just being a service to the people."

Understanding and Reaching the Religiously Unaffiliated. The single fastest-growing religious group of our time is those who check the box next to the word none on national surveys. In America, this is 20 percent of the population.
In this hard-hitting examination of our churches' current evangelism methods, which often result only in transfer growth--Christians moving from one church to another--rather than in reaching the nones, James Emery White calls us to discover the mission field right outside our doors. The pastor of a megachurch that is currently experiencing 70 percent of its growth from the unchurched, White knows how to reach this growing demographic, and here he shares his ministry strategies with concerned pastors and church leaders, answering questions like
· Exactly who are the unaffiliated?
· What caused this seismic shift in our culture?
· How can our churches reach these people?
If you long to see growth in your church that is the result of lost people entering into the family of God, this book is where you should start.
"In an era of increasing complexity and religious apathy, James Emery White has written a book that is helpful, informative, challenging, and timely. Those who care about communicating the gospel in this complex culture and think the church must regroup and re-engage should read The Rise of the Nones." --Ed Stetzer, president of LifeWay Research

After years of worrying about her movie choices, Anne Hathaway is embracing having some fun as she plays a con artist in new film The Hustle. She tells Laura Harding how having a baby helped her finally let go.
Anne Hathaway has a really good laugh.
Deep and throaty, it's the kind where she throws her head back and it seems to come from the pit of her stomach.
She's been doing a lot more laughing recently, as she learns how to stop caring what people think of her and take on film projects that make her happy.
"You work so hard to establish some kind of credibility as an actor that it's nice to feel that maybe I've established it enough that I can mess with it a bit," she says frankly as she leans back in her chair on a chilly spring day in London.
"I don't have to be so serious and I don't have to prove everything every single time and maybe I could just do a movie for the fun of it, just for the joy of hopefully making people laugh."
After shooting to fame in The Princess Diaries in 2001 and then finding huge success in The Devil Wears Prada, Brokeback Mountain, Rachel Getting Married, The Dark Knight Rises and Interstellar, Hathaway is certainly entitled to enjoy herself now.
And it looked like nobody was having more of a ball than her in last year's Ocean's 8, in which she sends herself up with joyful abandon as vain movie star turned con-artist Daphne Kluger.
Now she's playing another scammer in The Hustle, a modern retelling of the 1988 film Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, in which she stars opposite Rebel Wilson.
"I'm enjoying playing bad people, it's true," she agrees gleefully. "It's so nice not to be nice."
It wasn't actually deliberate for her to play two shysters in a row, but the parts were too fun for her to say no to.
"I signed on to The Hustle before Ocean's 8. I was really excited about playing this and then Ocean's 8 came along and I thought, 'Well I'm not turning that job down' and I didn't think I should step off The Hustle because it's going to be really, really fun so I just thought, 'Two conwomen!'
"How many thieves did Cary Grant play? Really, I can do this."
But Hathaway admits she didn't always have such a freewheeling approach to her choices, and puts this change of heart down to her three-year-old son Jonathan, who she shares with husband Adam Shulman.
"A few years ago I think I would have been too scared, thinking, 'Am I repeating myself? Will I be put into a box if I do this thing?'
"There is just something about having a child that makes you go, 'I don't care. I'm going to be happy and I'm going to make choices that make me happy.'
But Hathaway admits it isn't always that simple.
"I don't know if it's something that you ever feel that you've completely found but it comes more easy,
"I know what it feels like now, so when the feeling comes in you go, 'OK I'm not going to take this for granted, let's sit here as long as possible.'
"It's just like anything, things come and they go."
Now, at the age of 36, with an Oscar for her role as Fantine in Les Miserables under her belt, she has learned how to make choices that work for her.
"I don't think I necessarily knew how to be happy before. I think a degree of being happy is letting go and I wasn't really good at that and I just have a different perspective on that now.
"I just think I'm quicker to laugh, easier to flow with things."
Dressed in a green, double-breasted trouser suit - "I'm trying to bring the outdoors inside" - she seems relaxed and happy in her own skin, taking pleasure from spending time with funny people who share her sense of humour.
Her director in The Hustle is comedian Chris Addison, best known to British audiences as Ollie Reeder in political satire The Thick Of It and as Toby Wright in the show's spin-off film In The Loop, as well as a regular panellist on Mock The Week.
Addison cut his teeth as a director on another biting comedy about politics penned by Armando Iannucci, Veep, and makes his feature film debut with The Hustle.
At first, he and Hathaway seem like unlikely collaborators from very different worlds but the Hollywood star says she immediately hit it off with the Brit when they first discussed working together on another project.
"Unfortunately, it didn't work out but then when Chris came up for The Hustle I had already had so many conversations with him and I'm just so happy that he did this because it's really great to have someone behind the lens who understands where the funny is and who understands what it's like to be on the other side.
"Also, he's a very generous laugher and that is really nice when you're on take 97 of a scene."
One aspect of the film that provided a point of contention between the pair is Hathaway's accent.
At first she sounds English, then you develop a sneaking suspicion it's all part of the con.
"Chris really wanted me to be British in this movie and I just said, 'I don't think that is the right choice, I don't think I can pull it off necessarily.'
"Also England is very specific about who does a British accent and how they do it and I've never quite done it for you guys."
She smiles ruefully. She had a particularly bumpy experience with British audiences after she attempted a Yorkshire accent in the big screen adaptation of the book One Day.
"I was thinking how I was going to do it and I eventually thought, 'OK what if the character isn't British but she sounds British?'
"So she's from somewhere else, and she dresses the way she wants to dress and she lives on the side of a cliff and she just decides she's going to have the poshest, fakest British accent of all time?
"But it's going to be a good fake accent, so who would she sound like?
"So I decided she would sound like Mary Poppins, Stewie (from Family Guy) and Patsy (Stone from Absolutely Fabulous)."
At least it's not Yorkshire again, I offer.
She cackles."Let's not talk about it."
The Hustle is in UK cinemas now.

Because I knew that my day was going to consist of some running around, a floral wrap jumpsuit was a must. I find loose clothing to be more breathable in the summer, therefore this wide leg jumpsuit was perfect for running errands and attending festivities such as Curlfest.

I'm not sure if this is a shirt or a shirt dress.

The U12 team representing the NSJCA at the Lismore Carnival had a very success week but more importantly the wider group of parents and players had a great time at this event which was very well run by Berni and Barry Cooper. And on behalf of all of the attendees we thank them for the great work that they do to make this opportunity available for the players involved.As a brief run down on the carnival the team played four 25 over games and two 45 overs games and posted wins in all six matches. In the Semi Final NSJCA was matched against Manly and a tight tussle was expected again. The match did not disappoint with Manly setting a target of 157 which was successfully chased down with only a couple of overs to spare. The Grand Final opponents were Parramatta and with the task of setting a target in this match the NSJCA side produced the most impressive game played by this team to date. Four batsmen retired on 50 as the team set a daunting 3 for 302 off 43 overs. A carnival record. in reply to such a formidable total Parramatta were dismissed for 67. There but there were several outstanding individual performances in each of the disciplines. Alex Lee-Young took out the wicket keepers award with 13 stumping's and 2 catches.
Zack Winslow with 15 wickets was a close 2nd for most wickets.
Will Adlam took out the batting average for the carnival with 171 being dismissed only once. Congratulation on a great way to finish the Representative season for both the boys and the parent group.

Fussy Dining And Grocery Success
I can't believe the weekend's gone; where did that time go? I hope you had a good one. My Sunday was fantastic and I'm absolutely exuberant to blog about it, so I'm going to dive right in.
Similarly, I dove right in to these jolly beans right before my run. I wasn't really hungry for them, but I kept telling myself "You can have more jolly beans next time you run. You can have more jolly beans next time you run" So, I had more jolly beans the next time I ran. I was thankful for the extra energy, because in all honsety this was probably the toughest run I've had so far. Even before hand, the distance–11 miles outside–kept making me lose my focus. Could I do it? Would I do it? Just run!
I'll save any run recap where I could tell you everything went through my head at one point: incredible joy, wanting to quit, etc. The important thing was I did it! And could not have been more pleased(or wanting to stretch and collapse) at the end. But the finish line wasn't my dorm room. No, today it was different:
I was running to meet my family for brunch again at Garden Grill Cafe! A free meal out? Yes, please! I think my grandmother was most happy to eat here again 😉 And it was packed! I think it took 15 minutes to get a table. In hindsight, this was actually awful planning on my part; I'm very particular about how I like to recover and refuel, and going somewhere where I couldn't pick out the ingredients or cook had me a little crabby. Really, I just needed food in me! So I was very happy when they got the ball rolling and we ordered.
One of the great benefits of ending my run here was I knew I could get fresh carrot juice to refuel. As I've mentioned, a cup has more potassium than a banana! This was my first time having carrot juice fresh squeezed; because it was a little more fresh and fiberous, I don't think it was as sweet. But it was still tasty. I also managed to impress people by guzzling more water than is holy throughout the meal 😉
Speaking of the meal, I ordered the "American Breakfast" which was "2 eggs served any style, hash, and toast". Well, what I ate was a far departure from that. Unfortunately, they were out of gluten-free toast, which I wanted to give a shot(and craved the carbs of) :-/I also found no appeal in the eggs, even though usually I'm all over perfectly cooked sunny side up eggs. Boo. After some finagling, I got the meal I wanted. I traded my eggs for most of my mom's hash, and asked the server to bring peanut butter on the side. I managed to turn my "American breakfast" into hash with peanut butter; how American 😉
I'm not complaining, though, because this was amazing and just what I wanted. You wouldn't think fatty, salty hash(which is the best in the world, in my opinion, at Garden Grill) would work with fatty peanut butter, but I've never had a problem with fat on carbs 😀 I also stole some maple syrup from my dad's vegan cinnamon roll french toast(yes, you read that right, but unfortunately it was far from gluten-free :,-() to also flavor this.
And I wiped that plate clean, leaving a little of the peanut butter behind. The peanut butter was also really good; it tasted like it had brown sugar or some great sweetness in it that made it taste like Reeses'. Who knows? It might have been Reeses'. I was just hoping and praying a good establishment like this wouldn't use hydrogenated peanut butter(there entire pantry is Bob's Red Mill so I'm guessing they're honest and good people).
After that we ran back to my dorm so I could shower and change and then went to do some grocery shopping. At Whole Foods, Zevia was on sale for 3.50 a 6-pack, and by signing up for their newsletter I had a $1 coupon, so I was able to get 6 Root Beers for $2.50–score! It's so easy to pair manufacturers coupons with the store sales if you're patient.
The rest of the groceries were pretty standard. I grabbed some coconut milk yogurt since it's a sale item. The one grocery item not on sale or that I had a coupon that I "had to get" was my favorite dark chocolate bar by Endangered Species. I like to think that if I'm going to eat it and not let it go to waste, then it's worth it. And have no fear that I'll eat that 😉
I also tore up the bulk bins; I looove the bulk bins for things that you might want odd amounts for. I always get my steel cut oats from them, since they're cheaper and organic and I can get a lot. I also get Sunspire peanuts and jolly beans because it's better to buy candy in bulk so that you decide the amount for a lesser cost. And I got some sunflower seeds and dried cherries, since I wasn't looking to invest in big bags of those. I also spotted spelt flour while I was snooping the selection, which I'm now curious to pick up for some gluten-intolerant baking over break.
Of course, the grocery I saved for last was ice cream. I mentioned picking up a flavor I really didn't want on Friday night but convinced myself sounded good at the time Well, I was able to trade that one in for one I would eat. This afternoon, in fact!
Oh. My. God. Where to start? You could read my review for it here. Or, perhaps we could start at 10 years ago when I would eat way too much of Turkey Hill's peanut butter chocolate ice cream at my grandparent's house. Nowadays, me and the Turkey aren't best friends because of the ingredients he uses 😦 This was just as good, or better, or–I don't know how to describe it other than amazing with gooey peanut butter swirls.
Since I was hungry but not starving after that goodness, I decided to throw dinner in the oven a little early and make it a little bigger rather than snack on. Of course, being human I'd rather eat dinner later and make my ice cream bowl bigger. But I think keeping the real food in your diet high is 90% of "healthy eating"
I love roasting; you don't have to do much but wait. I roasted brussels cooked from last week, fresh sweet potato, and some quick-pressed tofu in maple syrup. The tofu needed longer pressing but I was short on time. Apparently, peanut butter on the side of every meal is going to become my "thing" now that Garden Grille endorsed it. I felt free to add some mighty maple from PB&Co. on the side. Without even realizing it until now, all 3 of my eats since breakfast have had peanut butter; I think that's the sign for a great day.
Do you "Pick your plate" eating out and drive the servers mad? I generally detest fussiness as a quality and would consider myself pretty adaptive. I always try to make sure there'll be something in a dining situation I'll eat even before going in. At the same time, if I'm eating out I really want to enjoy my meal, so I don't sweat the little things like asking for a side of peanut butter if the server will oblige. And do you utilize the bulk bins? Clearly, I consider them a necessity. But after getting home I read Averie's post about who and what has actually been near them–yuck! It has me second guessing…

I live for the bulk bins! SO CHEAP!
I always customize my meal when I order out. I am really really picky when it comes to eating.
Great minds do think alike!! I had some ice cream after my dinner so we could be twins 🙂
going to WF tomorrow and love to try the new zevia's soda's. the orange was awful btw.
hash browns & pb, never thought of that, but I love it. I make the best sweet potato hash browns, ever. I'm allowed to brag right?
I definitely drive the server's mad most of the time when I eat out: "no this, extra that, this on the side" etc, etc. I love roasting also, and just finished off a huge plate full of veggies. I think I eat this every night for dinner and never tire of it. So easy to pop in the over after a workout then go shower while it does it's thing. Such a lucky find on the Zevia. I'm all about coupons + sales. And yes, I love the bulk bins too, though I did read Averie's post too….kinda second guessing now…
I can't even fathom how amazing hash and peanut butter must be ❤ swooooon
I can be a bit picky when I eat out but feel like I'm going to be offensive if I totally deconstruct their dishes! I'll usually just ask for dressing on the side or no meat at most. Your breakfast looks SO good (pb and hashbrowns are great!) and congrats on the run.
Sometimes I get super picky- light cheese, no mayo, extra PB;) But it's your money, your body – and I'm a server, and am happy to make the adjustments, so I hope they do the same!
I love the bulk bins, oat bran ftw ! I am going to have to try your maple tofu combo soon !Nice run btw !
pb and hash? interesting!
i totally pick apart the dishes at restaurants, unless they're super fancy, then i don't mess with it!
Amazing how many people love bulks bins. Good concept, horrible reality. Would you really want to pick your undies out of your butt and then touch the bulk bin tongs. Well, some people do just that. Nuff said.
This from the last post:
"No, this hasn't turned in to a blog reviewing organic ales. Give it a few more years, the right sponsorship, and we'll see where it goes"
OMG I hope that wasnt lost on people. CLASSICALLY good material, Evan!
Thanks for the shout to my post, too.
And the vegan cinny roll french toast. Nice. But no, not GF.
And spelt. I would not recommend. It's not wheat, but it still has gluten. Period. Wheat gluten, spelt gluten, rye gluten, it's all gluten = all hard to handle.
I do use the bulk bins but I'm pretty anal about it and I ask a lot of questions!
That ice cream looks so decadent! I love all the pb action in this post. If I can't order a side of natural pb at a restaurant I usually have a packet of Justin's in my purse. You know, for those kind of "emergencies."
You're keeping Garden Grill in business!

Part 3 of Carolina Christmas is posted and I'm cutting out patches this morning - 192 blue rectangles and 592 (yes!) neutral squares. I may have to supplement my yardage to have enough neutrals, but that's not a problem. There's a lot more that will work with my initial selections. The thing is, I need to loosen up with the blue rectangles.
I had selected 13 blue fabrics, all various intensities of blue/green. I spread them out this morning and realized something.
I may be able to do scrappy but I'm still too hung up on match-y.
Seen all together like that, there wasn't enough difference between the fabrics. In the interest of cohesion, I had lost variety. Interesting.
So I went into my stash and started pulling more blues, this time looking more for coordination than similarity. In doing this, I incorporated more lights and more darks than I had before. I've got half the rectangles cut and stacked together and I'm liking how it looks. The golds and golden tans in the blocks already made are similar in saturation and tone but vary in pattern. The blue is going to give this quilt its spark, so I better start picking spark-y blues. Here's what I came up with:
Oh, and here's the 592 neutral squares (out of 22 different fabrics):Comfort zone here, me over there. It's a start.

Great post! I loved this: Comfort zone here, me over there. Check out your bravery. That's what I think anyway. Bravery. Anytime we move out of our comfort zone, which I really don't do. I'm enjoying how you're blogging about the experience of Carolina Christmas. It's fun!

text: These are warm, serene, bright autumn afternoons. I see far off the various-colored gowns of cranberry-pickers against the green of the meadow. The river stands a little way over the grass again, and the summer is over. The pickerel-weed is brown, and I see musquash-houses. Solidago rigida, just done, within a rod southwest of the oak. I see a large black cricket on the river, a rod from shore, and a fish is leaping at it. As long as the fish leaps, it is motionless as if dead; but as soon as it feels my paddle under it, it is lively enough. I sit on Clamshell bank and look over the meadows. Hundreds of crickets have fallen into a sandy gully and now are incessantly striving to creep or leap up again over the sliding sand. This their business this September afternoon. I watch a marsh hawk circling low along the edge of the meadow, looking for a frog, and now at last it alights to rest on a tussock.

Council's 'priority' list wasn't high enough on the priority list
Published: Wednesday, 05 October 2016 16:01
Andra Belknap,
Ojai Valley News reporter
The Ojai City Council plodded its way through three of its eight agenda items during a marathon five-hour meeting Sept. 27.
One item that went unmentioned was a carryover from the Council's Aug. 23 meeting — a discussion of the Council's priority list.
The list, in it's current form, is not so much of a priority list as it is a list of on-going projects, conceded City Manager Steve McClary. The document has not been reviewed or updated since McClary was appointed Interim City Manager in March, he said.
According to Ojai Mayor Paul Blatz, Council typically examines and adjusts the list twice a year.
"It will probably be on every agenda until we get to it," he said.

Most young adult novels are over 30,000 words long or 120-250 pages. Although younger adult novels can deal with intense and serious subjects, they are often mysteries and thrillers--stories engrossing enough to appeal to younger kids as well as older ones. The older young adult novels deal with more complex subjects.
What distinguishes a young adult novel from an adult novel is often nothing more than subject matter. These books are complicated, sophisticated and challenging. They are not limited in what issues can be discussed, nor are they in any way "kids' books." By this age level, there is a high tolerance for ambivalence in both character and plot, as well as a general acceptance of complex and painful subjects.

Chess Grandmaster Cheats with iPhone in International Tournament
International chess grandmaster Gaioz Nigalidze began rising through the ranks of professional chess in 2007, the same year the very first
iPhone came out. Looking back now, these two events might not be coincidental.
On Saturday, April 11, 2015, Nigalidze, the reigning Georgian champion, was discovered covertly using an iPhone, hidden in a bathroom stall, to cheat in an International chess tournament. Nigalidze was discovered after his opponent became suspicious of his frequent trips to the same bathroom stall, after almost every move. Upon inspection, administrators discovered an iPhone hidden in the toilet paper. Nigalidze denied that the device was his, but administrators alleged that the phone was logged into Nigalidze's social media accounts.
Of course, this wouldn't be the first instance of cheating in the competitive world of sports. That being said, cheating with computers is very different than traditional cheating methods. For example, let's consider cheating in sports with performance-enhancing steroids: Take a random kid from St. Louis and add a dose of performance-enhancing steroids to the mix and what do you get? Fortunately, you still have some random kid from St. Louis (albeit with some more impressive deltoids, probably). The kid might be stronger, but he's still not even close to a Mark McGwire. Conversely, take a random kid from St. Louis and give him the chess app on a tablet or smartphone: you've just found yourself the new international chess grandmaster.
Computer-assisted cheating exceeds any kind of cheating our culture has experienced in the past. It truly lets cheaters completely bypass all practice, talent, intelligence, and effort. It gives the least of the competitors an immediate, absolute advantage. Modern cheating where technological prowess replaces human performance is cheating on steroids – or, I should say, on iPhones.
Because artificial intelligence engines (e.g., chess apps) have advanced to the point that human decision-making can be replaced by machines, well-respected thought leaders, including Stephen Hawking, Steve Wozniak, and Elon Musk, have rung warning bells. Thus, it should be no surprise we are concerned that computer-assisted humans can cheat on tests and produce completely invalid results, without us being the wiser. It means, as an industry, we face a serious threat to the reliability and integrity of methods developed over the course of centuries to measure human capacity. Being at the forefront of test security, Caveon actively researches how technology can validate test results and detect those which have been falsified through cheating using technology or traditional means.

This Museum Is A Snore
(I am really sick when we go on a family vacation to Paris but I want to push it down and go to the Louvre. After walking all over the Louvre for the day I am exhausted but finally we make it to a sign advertising the Mona Lisa down the mile-long hallway. This happens when we got out of the gallery.)
Dad & Sister #1: "We just looked at the other paintings; they were beautiful!"
Mom & Sister #2: "We only got to see the Mona Lisa for a second before another couple shoved us out of the way, but we still got pictures!"
All of Them: "What did you do, [My Name]?"
Me: *blinking blearily* "Well, first I sat on the bench at the front of the gallery and then, I'm pretty sure I fell asleep for half an hour."
