From: Lilian Brown
Let me ask you this
|Have you ever gotten *Jealous* of your friends who have better breast and nicer cleavage than yours?

Don't you ever hate that UNEVEN BREAST of yours?

On this page I'll tell you a story of how I overcame my embarrassment with my saggy breast, how I was able to firm my breast naturally without surgery and live my life full with confidence and better sex relationship with my husband, and most important of all, how you can achieve the same result as mine!
How I got back my firm, natural & nice cleavage bust...
It sucks doesn't it when your breast are dropping down, almost touching the ground.
Don't you just hate it when your man goes limp by just having one look at your saggy bust?
I know how you feel. Because I've been there just like you are now.
Trust me, once my breasts were in really bad shape.
About 7 years ago, I was a 31 year old female who hated my breast so much.
They were "awfully saggy" and out of shape.
My breasts hang quite low as well.
In fact I would be afraid that one day my breasts would sag until can touch the ground
In my bra, the breasts' size would look miserably fine. But when out of the bra, my breasts, would sag terribly, either they were too flat or hung too low until my top is pointing far south.
I hated it a lot.
My skins tend to be very loose and very elastic.
In fact they tend to wobble to and fro until I can almost tie them in a knot! :(
I have been pregnant twice and have breast fed for a couple of months each time after delivery.
After the pregnancy my big saggy boobs have indeed worsen until about an inch apart from each other after a while!
I was literally sick and tired of trying to wear clothing just to minimize the embarrassment of these loose sagging breasts which tended to fall out of my bra when I was bending over!
Just like you, I was very insecure of my breast; I hated so much of even getting naked in front of the mirror, let along having sex with my husband
I almost wanted to file divorce the day my husband started to criticize me and lost his appetite on my body
My struggling never seemed to end…
I always heard people recommending me about breast lift or enhancement surgery as medical option.
But the slightest thought of having my breasts going under the knife has terrified me
Not only that….
Emotionally I was feeling unstable and often broke down because of my husband wasn't really exited about my breast anymore and my sex life is suffering.
Moreover all my friends constantly talk about my saggy boobs, calling me names like Pendulums, Super Droopers , Sag Bags, Marble-Stuffed Stocking Feet and they are nearly always brought up in conversations.....behind my back!
I've had enough. My boobs are giving me real bad backache and are constant pain in my life!
Embarrassed, Alone, and no where to run I was pretty Freakin' Scared that I would stuck with these sagging breast for the rest of my life!
Then a few years back I've made some revealing discoveries about my saggy breast problem.
I began to notice my breasts were much firmer and perkier than before.
My husband noticed it and I'm better looking in my bra now
You might be thinking that I could have cheated my way through surgeries or something.
All I could say is that I did not spend a single penny on those.
In fact I couldn't afford that myself!
So here's what I did…
About 7 years ago I have been actively researching some of the ways I could help my breast without thinking of breast lift surgery.
I've become very much obsessed with the subject of loosing my saggy breast.
I wanted to know everything that there is to know about curing this embarrassing body.
I used to spend hours at the library literally consuming tons of books, journals and magazines about breast, skins medication and many others.
Well I didn't just read. I've interviews countless of other people with huge saggy boobs problem as mine and endlessly picked the brains of every health therapist, doctors, surgeons and others.
I had since started the long, often frustrating road of trial and errors until I finally pieced together a complete and overall picture of the dark side of breast enhancement surgery and how we would loose our saggy breast using some of the better, cheaper and safer alternative natural methods which I would reveal to you soon
7 Years of study, researched, trial, error and experimentation
After more than years of hardworking and in depth research on a daily basis, after going through several eureka moments, not forgetting the long process of trial and error and dozens of interviews and self experiments, I applied my years of training to finally covering the solution to my saggy breast problem all without the need of any expensive breast enhancement surgery
It has taken me quite a few years with good amount of research to get to where I am now and to know exactly what works and what doesn't in firming our breast naturally.
Yes, after desperate trial and error, myriads of other useless treatments, disappointments and agony, a simple and safer ways to enhance my breast without surgery has opened the door to my new and much brighter life.
I knew this was only the beginning, that I had unearthed something big and needed to discover more
The end result?
Now, 7 painful years and thousands of work hours later, I no longer have saggy breast like I used to.
Why didn't I try breast lift With Implant surgery at first?
Thorough the years, many women have suffered from agony of these small or under-developed saggy breast. Some of them even suffer from breast sagging to side!
Apparently most of the people I met with saggy breast problem has only this costly and life-threatening solution in mind; *breast implant surgery*.
To determine the actual cost of breast implant surgery which you could end up with, you should take some of these numbers into account.
|The prices of breast implants themselves can be anywhere from $2000-$2200 per implant;
|Surgeons fee can cost approximately $3,050;
|Anesthesiologist $700;
|Facility fee: $950
Overall, if you want to solve your saggy breast this way, then be prepared to burn a hole in your wallet.
The average cost for these risky operations can amount to between $4,000 and $10,000, sometimes in extreme cases may end up to about $20,000
If you are like me or like the rest of the people, many of us just don't have this kind of money to splurge on breast enhancement surgery to improve our breast size or appearance.
But nonetheless, if cost is not a significant issue for you when it comes to breast enhancement surgery, then perhaps you should be aware of the dangerous complications arising after the surgery.
You've been lied for too long and it has to stop!
If you think surgery can solve 100% of your problem, wait till you read this.
If you are the unlucky ones, you could suffer from myriads of after surgery effects such as scarring, infection, breast hardening, sores around nipples, bleeding and drainage due to a ruptured breast implant, and sometimes serious reaction to anesthesia.
Imagine in some cases during surgery your nipples and areolas may have to be completely removed or transplanted into higher position.
The scariest thing that could happen to you is when the surgery could also leave you with mismatched breasts or unevenly positioned nipples!
Not only that, you can forget about future breast feeding as it may not be possible considering the fact that the surgery removes many of the milk ducts leading to the nipples.
Breast Implant surgery is NOT WORTH risking your Breast that Might damage beyond repair!
Here's the latest news; 300,000 women in America will receive breast implants this year.
While many of these people are familiar with common treatment from breast implants, unfortunately there seem to be overly massive amount of shady information about the surgery that only people within the industry would keep to themselves.
Which is the reason why you can find breast enhancement solutions can be confusing, tenuous and sometimes frightening process.
Why you ask?
Breast enhancement industry is a billion dollar industry.
With these billions at stake, these breast enhancement companies will tell you just about anything to get you sign up for their surgical treatment.
They'll even lie right to your face!
Thousands of women are suffering, and many are dying, as a result of corporate greed, and because the FDA didn't do its job.
It normally takes a great deal of time to get to the facts.
Hence for more than 7 years, I've researched and studied these 'very promising' breast implant surgeries from actual cases, real life stories of people who had their breast went through the knifes.
What I've uncovered in the end was simply shocking. Here are the facts you should know about now
FACT #1: Silicone Used In Breast Implants Is NEVER Guaranteed To Be Safe
Before the start of the surgery, it all started with a pristine, crystal clear, silicone gel implant, just the one show to the left, and like the one we were shown by our Plastic Surgeons during consultations – often accompanies by the assuring words
But do you know that silicone which was the essential ingredient used in breast implant, was actually been banned in 1992 by FDA?
Silicone breast implants actually went on the market since 1962, without any safety testing!
Today millions of women are unaware that their bodies were being poisoned by these modern day vanity contraptions which were bought in good faith
Breast implants have nEVER been proven safe by the FDA nor the Manufacturers, and this applies to Saline as well as silicone!
Hence you should be cautious of any doctors who advised you about the safety of silicone use.
And yes the silicone may make your breast feel natural.
But can you afford the risk that these silicone may be able to migrate throughout your body ie your organs, in your lymph and possibly resulting into forming tumors?
Here is the proof.
NOTE: These women are considerate enough to allow their pictures to be shown in the hopes that this will alert others to the dangers of implants or any kinds of breast surgeries sought
WARNING: These pictures below will reveal some disturbing pictures of the failed implants
As such many suffering women have told regulators of breast implants that caused rock-like scars, of silicone leaching into their organs and oozing through their skin, or unending pain
Recently, dozens of women and critics who blamed silicone gel breast implants for damaging health effects urged the Food and Drug Administration NOT to lift its 11-year ban on the devices.
Most of these women have these to say;
Carolyn Wolf of Centerville, Virginia, described *a long thin greasy glob* of silicone oozing from her eye and X-rays showing it lodged elsewhere in her body even after the implants she had for 29 years were removed.
``We beg you, please protect the younger generation,'' she said
Studies have shown that although the leaks are very hard to detect, surprisingly it is possible for these silicone solutions to travel through the intact shell even in small quantities.
This "gel bleed" is an unfortunately a common problem that is now coming to light with these implants
This problem can extend to your children if you breast feed with silicone implants
FACT #2: Your Breast Implants Warranty May Not Insure you Against Breast Breakage, Shift or Leak
Some women have reported that their implants deflated or ruptured in the first few months after being implanted and some have deflated over several years.
Through each implant may carry each respective manufacturer's warranty, but nonetheless, they differ wildly.
Sometimes, the warranty may not even cover the cost of your surgery which at times may end up with another extra $4,000 to $20,000!
FACT #3: Implants Are NOT Permanent Device
Don't fall into this trap that one surgery is not all it takes.
In real cases, you should be requiring not 2 but several surgeries throughout your lifetime.
Haven't you even realized that the average lifespan of a breast implant is around 10 years only?
If you can foresee yourself changing the battery in your car in the future, you might as well expect to have another second surgery after your implant expiry date.
FACT #4: You Will Also Be Denied And Will Be Dropped Health Insurance Coverage If You Have Breast Implants, Even If You Are Suffering From A Ruptured Silicone Breast Implant Later.
Believe it or not, your health insurance policy may not cover or reimburse you the cost of breast implant surgery done for purely cosmetic reasons.
Based on my findings with Food and Drug Administration's Breast Implant Consumer Handbook, "For some women, companies may increase premiums, drop coverage, or deny future coverage following breast implant surgery or following complications from the breast implants or surgery. Policies on coverage may also change from year to year."
Even if your health insurance company does not overcharge your premiums or drop you, they may not even cover any surgeries or risks associated with complications due to your cosmetic breast enhancement surgeries.
Since the FDA and other implant makers concluded that MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) is needed every few years after you've done your silicone-filled implants (to check for breast cancer), the cost of this procedure make rake up to thousands of dollars (about 10 times the cost of mammography).
Sadly, your insurer may not cover this. :)
FACT #5: Studies Have Shown Than There's A 21% Of Increased Risk Of Having Cancers For Women With Implants, Compared To Women Of The Same Age In General Population.
In most cases, many of these women were unaware they've developed cancer in the first place as the result from complications
More often that not, these implant women were three times like to die from lung cancer, emphysema and pneumonia as other plastic surgery patients.
This fact is based on yet another study on medical records and death certificates of nearly 8,000 women who have done breast implant surgeries (on either silicone gel implants or saline implants) as well as more than 2,000 other plastic surgery patients.
Not only breast implants can cause unnatural, invasive and often painful experience to you, the researchers also uncovered many potentially life threatening health hazards from breast implants. These includes swollen and tender glands under the arms, recurrent unexplained low-grade fever, hair loss, memory loss, skin rash, headaches, chest pain, and even shortness of breath!
FACT #6: Many Are Unaware For The Fact That Saline-Filled Breast Enhancement Implants Tend To Have A Greater Risk Of Leaking Into Breast Milk And Deflation Than Silicone Gel Implants
In addition to that you may suffer from permanent lose of all sensations in your nipples.
Not forgetting about the complications from bleeding, blood clots, tissue necrosis, infection, scaring, implant rejection, implant rupture or leakage, additional surgeries, severe anesthesia reaction. These complications may linger for many years to come in your life.
In fact, from one of the studies published in Lancet medical journal, Dr Lori Brown of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) says, "There is emerging consensus that both the incidence and prevalence of breast-implant rupture are much higher than previously suspected"
FACT #7: If You Are Not Happy With The Breast Implant Results, There Is No Such Thing REFUND!
There would be no refund to you if you are not happy with the overall shape or results from the surgeries. If you opt to remove these implants from your body, you will have to fork out additional thousands of dollars in additional surgery
A Top Hollywood actress's Account on Implant Removal
I vividly remember the day I first thought about taking out the implants. It was 1999, and I was starring in a short film. Before I began the love scene, I stood in the bathroom looking in the mirror and suddenly, for the first time in my career, I was afraid to expose myself. Where once I'd felt proud and empowered to walk into a room naked, I now realized that my breasts were defining me before I had a chance to define myself, in both work and my personal relationships. Even though I was intelligent and a trained actress, many of the people I met, including casting directors, weren't taking me seriously. I was sick of my breasts walking into a room five minutes before I did.
Finally, a year later, I asked a doctor to take out my implants
Overall, I've spent more than $20,000 on my breasts, yet I'm back to where I started. Actually, I'm smaller than what I started with because my downsizing doctor took out so much scar tissue.

Just watch ep 2 .
Nice op with Tenshi .
For the show , I don't see anything great . Well , this is unrealistic but there is no sense .
The hilarious dead part was a bit forced .
And seems that people there are stronger than normal people .
TK who stopped for a moment the ceiling which are falling ...
Yuri who avoid Tenshi's all attacks even though she used her "skills" ...
At least , the animation looks ok . Added in my least enthusiasm show in this season .

I love Tenshi as much as the next guy and agree she isn't a "villan" per se but I can't agree with a theory that says she and "God" are "right" in this situation.
As has been pointed out both from the show and the novel translations (no spoiler) this world once you become self aware of it is pretty terrible. Your stuck at some isolated boarding school, expected to obey arbitrary rules, have almost no self-determination in being a model student. If your gonna say healing of your soul takes place here, it can only take place by fighting yet another unbending establishment, not by giving in. Once you notice something is wrong with this place its rather likely you will "rebel" in some respect and after that moment giving in to the system wouldn't be enlightened it would just be submissive. I doubt they are willing to make a statement like the "creator is evil" or "the human spirit should be crushed". Tenshi might very well be benevolent (assuming afterlife setting which I don't yet believe the regen and binary is too much atm) but the way out of this is not through giving in or understanding her point of view, she might be helping them shape their own outlook instead.

The Key influence (or maybe I should say Maeda Jun) isn't too apparent in the first episode, but of course knowing Key, I fully expect to bawl my eyes out at some point in this series, as well as the heavy hinting and dosing of magical elements to go along with everything.
That said, episode 1 felt a bit weak to me for an opener. It might be because of my Key bias that I can't help but make comparisons to Maeda Jun's other works. A bit too much comedy and slapstick for my liking, which admittedly nearly overrides the very intriguing Highlander-esque setting and the presumable mystery behind the "battlefield" and whatever it truly is they're fighting against regarding Tenshi and "god".
On the other hand of course those other previous works started out as pretty silly and progressively became very, very, very serious. The silly little things are in fact often the deathly serious ones later on. Deadly serious. Bawwwingly serious. Pretty quickly too, so I really won't hold the first episode against it. Episode 1 did end with a classic semi-magical introspective reflection of sorts I was expecting at some point so it was all balanced, sort of, at the end.
Oh and I'm assuming Key did the OP? Sounds like something they'd make, and the singer sounds like Lia.
Episode 2 was when I realized I should stop comparing it to other Key works because it is both very much Key (the latter half) and very much not Key (the first half?). I actually very much enjoyed it that for all it's silliness at points, it's actually fairly serious if having a rather odd way of presenting it.
On to serious business, there are 3 things that very much intrigue me:
1. Conformity and Heaven
This series seems to connect a lot to the ideas of religions regarding heaven, purgatory, etc. If anything the battlefield feels closer to an idea of purgatory rather than heaven since it's directly suggested to be the transition stage towards heaven. Theologically speaking the cleansing aspect of the school, where arrivals become students of sorts before they presumably graduate to heaven, is very much symbolic of this but I'm not too sure of the conformity aspect. I've studied theology but I'm not a theologian, however I don't think I've really come across the idea of purgatory being a place where everyone must conform to the norms or risk damnation, at least for Christianity.
For the series, I assume there has to be some very important and solid reason as to why conformity is demanded, and while Yuri seems to consider the rest of the unaware student body to be akin to NPCs, it's really fairly possible for me that like Otonoshi these are simply the people sent there who have not yet become self-aware. Yuri seems to suggest that these people, or most of them at least, have been there for ages and thus concludes to believe that they simply aren't real people, dead or alive (or in between). I personally think that they are the same as them, that there's really no difference in the masses compared to the SSS. To me I'd think that the SSS were the same as these so-called NPCs before self-awareness. It's not outrageous to think that perhaps they only think so because they don't bother to remember the faces of the NPCs and therefore get surprised when a new face that is self-aware arrives. In Otonoshi's case he might have simply been one of the masses and suddenly becomes self-aware right on that spot to be seen by Yuri eventually.
2. Self-awareness and Memories
One thing I find sort of odd is the lack of self-awareness and memories. Simply put, if this place is meant for one to rid oneself of their physical attachments in preparation for heaven, how can one consciously attempt to make this choice if one cannot remember and cannot think for themselves? If a person on the battlefield possesses no capacity for conscious thought and no memories of his past experiences then how is he supposed to rid himself of these things? Is it to say that the "mindless masses" are those who have achieved this state, or did they become like this by default upon they're arrival?
I'm probably thinking about this too much but this strikes me as odd. If indeed Tenshi's function is to restore this state of zombie-like existence, then I believe that everyone on the school has the capacity to become self-aware at some point by some trigger, that if indeed the NPCs are pre-awares then the zombie-like state is simply a facade to mask/suppress self-awareness, and thus there would have been an original trigger that would have awakened Yuri. In this respect Yuri starts the chain that causes more people to become self-aware.
Yuri in this respect is the original self-aware, as she herself sort of puts it (and thus de facto leader), and she herself is the trigger for everyone else. As such, more supported by the fact that she seems to be the only one with perfect memory of her life upon becoming self-aware, that she is a special existence in this battlefield.
Yuri = Jesus?
Another thing of note is that, given that their weapons explode in their faces if they've never seen it before, it might be safe to say that the internal reality of the battlefield is defined in turn by the (suppressed?) memories of the people there. Assuming the rule applies to everything then would it be safe to say that, since the world seems concrete to some extent, that everyone there has some form of collective memory and/or consciousness that allows the existence of the world in the way they see it? At this point we haven't seen enough of their purgatory so I'll expound on that later.
3. The Concept of God
Most intriguing and probably most difficult to talk about is the concept of "god" in this world. I guess the only idea we have of the nature of this god is the idea that Yuri has of him. That is to say, she obviously thinks of him as malevolent, unjust and unkind. When you think about it, the very nature of the world's moral code and rules of conformity, zombie minds and violence upon those who rebel against it seems to justify her beliefs. She undoubtedly believes that this god is screwed up compared to the way we think a god would be.
The thing is of course is that she likely tackles the problem most people in a religion have, whether they like to admit it: the silence of god. She questions god as to why horrible things happened to her, and probably why such things seem to continue in this world in-between, but I guess the god of this world doesn't answer. Only silence, so she is forced to make her own image of him based on her experiences.
One could say that Tenshi is likely to be the (rampaging) hand of god in this world, but I have this suspicion that she's not, at least not wholly so. I don't know why I believe this but I don't think Tenshi exactly acts out the will of god so to speak, that there's probably something more to it, something I'm sure will be revealed eventually.
And that as they say is that. My fingers and my brain hurts. Damn you Maeda Jun and your metaphysics.

Excellent post MeoTwister, lots of other good ones here too. There just really is so much to consider with this show and that is what continued to make it so exciting and immersive.
Comp sim or Afterlife or whatnot I should just bring this into discussion, not that it proves anything, after watching Tortise-subs Angel Beat PVs, just because it is so similar to what many here are saying (i don't really know what to think myself yet):

Not sure if 13eps is enough to cover much depth, but I guess the other novels/manga have some part to play in filling that gap.
anyone notice there's two different types of previews here? one full of kanji "words" (what they say) and the other with pictures (site)
so far, its looking pretty good.

Well at least the main story have the potential to be epic though. But i still have feelings this series will prove Maeda is human too, like Ryukishi do with Ookamikakushi.

Either way, Ookami was a side story Ryukishi was making while making Umineko and helping out with Rewrite and whatever else he was dealing with in life... I thought Angel Beats was Maeda's sole project. O.o

I think it may be a mistake to say that conformity is "demanded" in this world. It is merely encouraged. If it were demanded, I'd expect there to be quite literally "hell to pay" for rebellious actions, but right now those people pretty much get to do whatever they please. The level of corrective action by the Angel (who BTW so far still hasn't fully "won" an encounter) is remarkably benign if she's the agent of presumably all-powerful God. (She does kill, but in this setting that's a slap on the wrist.)
(Incidentally, I'm not trying to prove you wrong or anything, just discussing )
It'd be interesting to see the rationale of some of the students who aren't part of the resistance (i.e. why don't they fear erasure?), especially if they've arrived after the resistance started. How many of them are there BTW, compared to the SSS/Guild? I mean conformists, not NPCs (at least I think there's a difference, maybe I'm confused).

The Distortion skill looks to be only useful against ranged as she immediately took action when someone engaged in melee combat. Judging by the first ep, she actually has to drop Distortion to make any violent action as was demonstrated by the melee/RPG tag team maneuver.
Yuri's ability can only be chalked up to experience. If you know someone can teleport into a blind spot, you can adjust accordingly but it doesn't make up for the lack of speed. Yuri managed to avoid Delay only a few times before being overwhelmed by it's capacity. *cough* She's an Evasion tank.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved Merz Aesthetics' Belotero Balance® Dermal Filler for injection into the dermis for the correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds. This product is a hyaluronic-acid-based cohesive gel dermal filler designed to deliver natural-looking results with little recovery time.
This is the second Merz Aesthetics FDA approval in 2011 and is based on results from a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, multicenter study of 118 patients. In a split-face design, patients received bilateral treatment with Belotero Balance and an approved bovine collagen filler for the correction of moderate to severe nasolabial folds.
Patients were evaluated using a 5-point Wrinkle Severity Scale (WSRS), ranging in severity from least (0) to most (4). According to Merz, Belotero Balance demonstrated a greater reduction in the mean change of the WSRS at all time points and maintained more than 1 point WSRS reduction at week 24 (compared to 0.5 for the control).
No serious adverse events were reported for either treatment. Commonly occurring, short-term injection site reactions, including swelling, bruising, and injection site nodules, were mild to moderate in severity. More rare side effects may include swelling that lasts longer and unevenness or firmness in the area injected; as with any injection, there may be a risk of infection.
Belotero Balance Dermal Filler is manufactured by Anteis S.A.

Wastewater Recycling
Recycled wastewater systems disinfect water collected from showers and baths, laundry, and bathroom sinks for non-potable water uses including irrigation and toilets. Although treating greywater requires an initial capital investment, doing so conserves water and can yield savings in annual water bills. Review the examples below and consider installing a water recycling system when building a new facility or renovating an existing building.
Wastewater recycling can save money
Unilever, which produces over 400 brands of home, personal care, and food products, performed a water audit of a laundry detergent factory in Georgia in 1995 and then embarked upon a program of increased efficiency efforts, including rainwater collection, wastewater reuse, and educating employees on the economic and environmental importance of water conservation. These improvements save the company over $100,000 a year.
Solaire Apartments, located in Battery Park in New York City, was built in 2003 and contains 250 units. Water from irrigation, cooling towers, and toilets is collected, treated, and reused again for those purposes. The system reduces the building's freshwater use by 75%.

Rainwater Harvesting
Collecting rainwater off roofs for reuse can be an environmentally preferable and a potentially economical approach to fulfilling a portion of your facility's water needs. Rainwater catchment systems, which can include cisterns, rain barrels, and other simple devices to capture and reuse rainwater, can be designed and installed on a small scale as well as at larger scales.
Review the examples below, and consider installing a rainwater catchment system when embarking upon new construction or renovation.
Rainwater catchment examples
- United Nations Environmental Program international examples
- NRDC's Santa Monica Office
- Olympiastadion, Berlin, Germany
- This venue for the 2006 FIFA Soccer World Cup uses a rainwater harvesting system that diverts rainwater into one of the largest cisterns in Europe, capable of storing over 49,000 cubic feet of water. The cistern supplies non-potable water for uses such as irrigating the soccer field.
- Massachusetts Institute of Technology Stata Center
- Stormwater/rainwater catchment system provides water for non-potable uses such as toilets. Case Study
Environmental Benefits
Almost half the world's population lives without a reliable supply of clean drinking water. In the United States, many sources of freshwater are being depleted faster than they can be recharged by natural processes. This is especially true in the Southwest. The Colorado River, for example, which supplies water to 30 million people in seven states and Mexico, is at its lowest level since water flow records began being kept about 100 years ago. It often runs dry before it reaches the sea, adversely impacting farmers, residents, and aquatic life. Water conservation is especially important in light of the looming pressures of global warming, which threaten to significantly increase evaporation as well as instances of severe drought. Water scarcity will rival sea level rise as one of the consequences of global climate disruption.
Recycling wastewater helps reduce pressure on drinking water resources. Harvesting rainwater helps preserve natural water resources and stream and river ecosystems. Rainwater catchment systems also can reduce the need to transport water from distant locations, thereby reducing energy use and infrastructure requirements. Water conservation measures can help to ensure that future generations have access to the water they need.

First Co-production is the MALDEF Latino State of the Union Address and Roundtable which Premieres Nationally on KCET and Link TV in Early March
Burbank, CA - National independent public transmedia company KCETLink, and MALDEF, the nation's leading Latino legal civil rights organization, have announced a partnership to curate and produce programming that spotlights key social justice issues and cultural narratives of the U.S. Latino experience to a national audience on KCET and Link TV.
The first co-production will be the "MALDEF 2013 Latino State of the Union – The Roundtable on Law, Policy and Civil Rights" premiering on Link TV March 7 from 5-6:30 p.m. PSD/8-9:30 p.m. EST and KCET on March 8 from 8–9:30 p.m. Filmed earlier this month at the Time Warner Center in New York, NY, the program will present the address in its entirety by the Honorable Hilda L. Solis, and also feature an expert roundtable convened by MALDEF moderated by Giselle Fernandez, president of Creative World management.
"We are committed to working with MALDEF to help amplify the voices of the Latino population and show what an important role, culturally and politically, they play in the future of our country," said Bohdan Zachary, vice president, Broadcast, Syndication & Production for KCETLink. "We're delighted to be able to present the LSOU for the first time to a national audience, and hope this, and future MALDEF projects we produce, can become a robust source for information about the Latino community across the country."
"As Latinos prepare to take on an increasingly critical role in the development of policies affecting all communities in the United States, this partnership between MALDEF and KCETLink will prove crucial to ensuring an ongoing appreciation in all sectors of the issues of greatest concern and the policy solutions to best serve a 21st century United States," stated Thomas A. Saenz, President and General Counsel of MALDEF.
About the Program
The 2013 Latino State of the Union: the Roundtable on Law, Policy and Civil Rights
The Honorable Hilda L. Solis, former United States Secretary of Labor, will open the program with the 2013 Latino State of the Union keynote address in which she reflects on President Barack Obama's State of the Union address, his vision for the advancement of Latinos in the U.S. economy and reinvigorating the middle class.
In her speech, Solis touches upon many critical issues facing the Latino community in the U.S. from immigration reform with a clear "pathway to citizenship," to education and job growth. "…In just over a few years, Latinos will represent well over 20 percent of the U.S. Labor force," Solis said in her speech. Noting that one in four American born Latinos drop out of high school, she called for programs that allow students to earn credentials in technical fields while also dual enrolling at a community college. This would emphasize "career choices that can sustain families," she said. She also spoke of the importance for strengthening Latino worker rights through grassroots programs given to businesses employing migrant workers.
The keynote by Solis is followed by a brief address by MALDEF President and General Counsel Thomas A. Saenz, who speaks about the wisdom and discernment of Latino voters as the correct lesson from the historic impact of Latinos in the 2012 presidential election. He also discusses the policy expectations of Latinos with respect to issues such as immigration and education, and advises policymakers to understand that the Latino community demands real reforms that are tailored to today's America, including the large and increasing presence of Latinos.
Afterward, Giselle Fernandez moderates the 2013 Latino State of the Union roundtable; she is a Five-time Emmy® award winning journalist, producer, filmmaker, Latin media marketing entrepreneur and president of Creative World Management.
The expert panel includes Thomas A. Saenz, MALDEF President and General Counsel; Aracely Muñoz Petrich, Commissioner, Commission on Hispanic Legal Rights and Responsibilities; and Hector Sanchez, Executive director, Labor Council for Latin American Advancement & Chair, National Hispanic Leadership Agenda.
Fernandez leads a robust discussion tied to Solis's address about such topics as immigration reform, accessible and affordable education and advanced training, and the inequities of Latino representation in higher office, given it's the fastest growing population in the U.S.

I'm very interested in trying umeboshi, but the last time I went to a large Asian market to buy some, there were dozens of different varieties...and all of them described in Japanese, which I do not read. Can someone point out a good brand or type to try? Some I saw were dry packed, others were sitting in liquid. Some looked firm and wrinkly and others were plump and looked soft. I'm just so confused.
Is there one in particular that's just very popular and/or a good choice for an umeboshi newbie?
Also, how does one eat umeboshi? I know that it's traditional to place one in the middle of your rice, but do you take bites of it with rice, eat it in one bite, or do you mash and mix it into the rice?
I really love Muraoka Foods' crunchy ume. They are fresh packed individually and come in a clear & white plastic bag with pictures of plum blossoms on it. The logo is pink and dark blue. They're incredibly sour but I love them. Lots of Japanese eat them as an infrequent snack treat.
The dried ume I have some trouble with. I hardly ever buy them but I suppose they could be used as furikake (rice topping) with sesame seeds, nori flakes, what have you. They can be reconstituted with some success for some dishes; most are quite salty.
In the jars look for umeboshi aka. They have a mild taste and are good to use in onigiri. You can mince three or four into a chunky paste to use for a pasta topping along with a little mirin and soy sauce. I like topping angel hair w/this mixture and adding nori flakes. Yuzu Kosho, BTW, makes another outstanding pasta topping, as does mentaiko.
I think eating your ume in your onigiri is akin to your favorite way to eat an Oreo. Chew around it before you eat it all at once or a little bit with every bite. Just a matter of preference.
Most of the brined ume in jars are a tasty decoration in one way or another, usually over rice to give a snappy extra flavor to make it more interesting. Also try the golden ones, which are often sweet, to see if you like them. And don't be afraid to ask for help or recommendations from the stores where you can find them.
Hmmm, this is really tricky as I have no idea about the range of umeboshi available to you at your local stores.
Part of the appeal of umeboshi to me is that there are so very many different kinds to try, some are eye-wateringly sour, others are literally steeped in honey, some are soft, wrinkled and squidgy, others as crisp as a fresh green apple. I always pick up a mystery packet on every trip to Japan.
Some people take the stone out before putting them inside umeboshi, I generally don't - it's just like eating bread with unpitted olives, you just need to take care when biting into it. Sucking an umeboshi stone is one of my favourite parts, the flavour is particularly intense this way, just like when you suck a peach kernel.
For a tentative first try of umeboshi, and without my knowing what you can easily buy, a safe bet would be for me to suggest umeboshi in a tube.
It comes in paste form in a little squeezy bottle (just like Wasabi), both S&B and House brands manufacture it
You can squeeze out as little or as much as you like, have it alone in onigiri or mix it with flakes of dried bonito (umekaka). It combines very nicely with cucumber and can be mixed into mayonnaise as a tangy dressing to accompany fish or to eat with salads.
Once you know whether you get on with the taste you should feel better about buying whole umeboshi, or even umeboshi candy.
I hope this is the start of an ume love affair and that you end up being as fond of these plums/apricots as I am!
To me, the standard umeboshi (the one they might put next to its entry in the dictionary) is about the size of a medium olive, soft and wrinkly, and made with red shiso leaves which gives it a reddish-brown color. (See my mother's method). There may be regional preferences though - my family is from Saitama and Tokyo (both in the Kanto region).
Anyway, a standard umeboshi is salty and very sour, but quite versatile. If you are an umeboshi beginner, don't just pop one 'neat' into your mouth unless you like really really sour and salty things! It is better to have it in a diffused form to start with. You can use it finely chopped as an addition to salad dressings and sauces. Instead of using it 'straight' as an onigiri filling, try mixing it with some bonito flakes - this mix is called 'ume-kaka' (hold your giggles) and is really nice - sour and fishy but neither flavor is too overwhelming.
Honey soaked or dashi soaked umeboshi ar standard umeboshi marinated in these things. The marinating also softens that intense sour-saltiness. Honey soaked is the mildest.
Koume or kari kari ume are small ume (of a different variety) that are crunchy instead of soft. They are a bit less sour than regular umeboshi. There are green and red kinds.
To get a taste of what ume flavor is like, you may want to try some ume candy. Koume-chan is a classic, but there are others.
I guess one of these days I need to do one of my roundup posts for umeboshi!
The Big Onigiri.
- Wherever you go, there you are. -
I did find an amazing array of umeboshi choices at one of the local Asian groceries. I found, though, that almost all of them contained MSG. Is there a brand you can recommend that does not? Or are we Americans too afraid of MSG?
Well, MSG is basically sodium, so worrying about it in a high-salt product like umeboshi may be sort of a moot point. However a tiny fraction of the population are actually highly sensitive to MSG; plus it adds a slightly chemical flavor to food IMO. Anyway, umeboshi has been embraced by the macrobiotic movement, so you are likely to find MSG-free kinds at natural food stores rather than general Asian grocery stores. One brand in the U.S. is Eden Foods, who also sells them by mailorder. (In the UK there is Clearspring)
As with most Japanese foods, the cheaper it is, the more likely umeboshi is to have additives like MSG.
i had some purple colored umeboshi in a restaurant the other day... well i don't know if they are actual umeboshi (never tried them before) they had a bright purple color and very sour, but small... like a small olive, maybe a little bigger. They were nice :)

I don't know if this belongs here please forgive me if this question has already been anwsered.
Can an onigiri with umeboshi as a filling be frozen then microwaved the next day? I ask because I'm usualy short on time in the mornings and my rice cooker doesnt have a timer setting so unfortunattely the freezer is my best option. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Yes onigiri with filling can be frozen successfully. Just make as usual, wrap securely in plastic wrap and put in a freezer bag or freezer box. You can defrost them until they are warm on the HIGH setting for a couple of minutes or so depending on how bit the onigiri is, or the DEFROST setting for longer (I usually use the HIGH setting). One tip - round onigiri defrost more evenly than triangular onigiri. Try for a flat, round shape, like a stack of Oreo cookies.

I thought I'd share our method for defrosting rice. My husband is very conncerned about food being contaminated with volatile gases from plastic cling wap when its microwaved and he has a total freak-out if he sees food defrosting in the mcirowave under plastic wrap. So I started to peel it off before popping it in but I learned the hard way that pulling plastic cling wrap off of frozen onigiri or rice means there is little bits of it left sticking to the food, which is not very nice to get in your mouth.
So now I run the onigiri or pre-portioned rice under cold water for a few seconds and the plastic wrap peels right off. The rice is still frozen and I defrost it as usual but cover it with a wet paper towel so it won't dry out.
It tastes just fine this way and no husband freak-out ensues!
Thankyou so much Maki for your advice, this has made my mornings so much easier!

Compute the shortest path lengths using Johnson's algorithm.
Johnson's algorithm combines the Bellman-Ford algorithm and Dijkstra's algorithm to quickly find shortest paths in a way that is robust to the presence of negative cycles. If a negative cycle is detected, an error is raised. For graphs without negative edge weights, dijkstra() may be faster.
|Parameters :
csgraph : array, matrix, or sparse matrix, 2 dimensions
directed : bool, optional
indices : array_like or int, optional
return_predecessors : bool, optional
unweighted : bool, optional
|Returns :
dist_matrix : ndarray
predecessors : ndarray
|Raises :
NegativeCycleError: :
This routine is specially designed for graphs with negative edge weights. If all edge weights are positive, then Dijkstra's algorithm is a better choice.

Smoosh's first studio-recorded album, She Like Electric, brims with intensely diverse and magically cohesive pop songs that amaze as they engage. The rich range of the sisters' emotional spectrum factor as strongly into the flavour as vanilla extract: pure, simple and true. From the joyful and contemplative ("To Walk Away From") to the silly and giggly, ("The Quack") to the angry and bittersweet ("But Now I Know"), urgency prevails. And, yes, every note of this album was written and performed by Asya and Chloe with no adult intervention.
Smoosh is, above all, not afraid to make exactly the type of beautiful, varied music they want to. You know why? Because they're feelin' it. And so will you.
"Smart, engaging, dance-y pop songs that are both intelligently catchy and indie-rock scruffy." CMJ Music Monthly
*"More affecting and melody-wise than most bands twice their age." *– Blender
"Beautiful, funny, poignant, catchy and inspirational... She Like Electric is on the short list for rookie of the year." 5 stars. Alternative Press

A delightful early example of the Brother Mougin's Art Nouveau ceramic work before they moved to Nancy after a relatively short and failed attempt to establish themselves in Paris (i.e., circa 1902-04). The hand-worked form is molded to appear as though water is violently flowing from the top and down the vase sides. Pierre and Joseph have wisely worked the glaze such that the top is slick and wet looking, while the vase sides are more muted and matte in appearance as the imagined "water" flows across the form. The bottom is fully and appropriately signed, "J et P Mougin," from their early Paris (France) ceramic works and carries the form/production number "1770." The dimensions of this vase are almost perfectly symmetrical; 5.5"(H) x ~5.5"(Diameter).
Joseph (1876 - 1961) and Pierre Mougin (1880 - 1955), ceramists and sculptors from Nancy, were contemporaries of the Ecole de Nancy and the development of Art Deco. The "passion of fire" which quickly seized the two brothers influenced them throughout their lives.
Fascinated by science, horticulture and marine biology, young Joseph Mougin seemed predestined to the naturalistic themes that would be the impetus for the Art Nouveau movement. After art studies from which he gained many influences, especially from his his teachers (Bussiere) and peers (Lemarquier), Joseph Mougin discovered his vocation during a posthumous exhibition of great ceramist Jean Joseph Marie Carriès. As for Pierre, who admired Sarah Bernhardt's talent, he took acting classes to prepare for the Conservatory, but soon left to be seduced by the enthusiasm of his brother, without knowing at that time that this newfound passion would last for the rest of his life.
The early works of the Mougin brothers combine crystallizations with glazes, demonstrating a keen sense of details, and preferring a sense of lyrical realism. Their early ceramic works are of vegetative or aquatic naturalism rendered in flowing glazes on sandstone substrate, and during this early phase they would also intermittently produce symbolist pieces incorporating female motifs.
The Mougin brothers were well connected to artists and designers from the heyday of the Art Nouveau period. They leased their ceramic services to other artists, some of which include major figures of the Ecole de Nancy such as Ernest Bussiere and Barrias, former teachers of Joseph, Victor Prouvé, Ernest Wittman, Alfred Finot and Louis Majorelle. Their ceramic works received enough attention from the bourgeoisie during the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods to provide for a comfortable living situation for the Brothers Mougin for the remainder of their careers.
The Mougins' works received prizes and other distinctions in several exhibitions and Joseph Mougin won the Gran Prix de la Ceramique at the Exposition des Arts Decoratifs in Paris in 1925. Mougin's works are in the Musee de Saint-Jean-de-l'Aigle, the Musee de Luneville and the Musee de l'Ecole de Nancy.
