- Weight: 84.7
- This week: gain of 200g
- Total loss so far: 3.3kg
I had a gain this week, but I'm not worried. I know my body, and I know my cycle (most of the time). This is bloaty week again (and how fast did that come around? Sweartagod, somebody's been jumping on the Fast Forward button on my life again!), so next week I'm on track to have a nice big loss with little to no effort (no, this is not Murphy-baiting, this is a simple acknowledgement of fact). I'm actually a little surprised that it's only 200g – I didn't exactly fall off the wagon this last week, but I did wobble quite alarmingly. With all the "fun and frolic" of getting the boys settled back in school and myself back to TAFE (read: an almost total neglect of my exercycle since Saturday), not to mention TWO entire birthday cakes for Sasquatch and a big, delicious roast chicken dinner for Tech Support's parents on the weekend, I'm really pretty happy that it's such a small gain.

Honestly, you could switch these broccoli burgers up and use them for we for a savory breakfast, lunch or dinner. The broccoli bites are perfect for snacking and they are really hard to stop eating.
- 2 cups boiled, blanched, finely chopped broccoli
- 1 1/2 cups bread crumbs
- 1/2 feta cheese
- 1/2 cheddar cheese
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp oregano
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- To a bowl add breadcrumbs, cheese, salt & spices combine well.
- In a separate bowl mix eggs until smooth.
- Add eggs to breadcrumbs & stir to combine well.
- Next add broccoli & stir well to combine
- Firmly press a large handful of the mixture into a patties. The mixture will feel crumbly but by firmly pressing them together & in combination with the eggs, cheese & the cooking process the will stay together.
- You can lightly pan fry them or bake them.
- If you pan fry them make sure your pan is thoroughly coated with oil & add enough to the pan for the patties to cook in as well. Cook on medium – high heat for 2 minutes on each side.
- If you want to bake them set your oven to 400 degrees, use a nonstick baking pan or make sure you coat your baking sheet with oil so the patties do not stick to the pan. Bake for 12 minutes.

The weather was so chilly today and all it does is put me in a mood to sleep. So I decided to go home straight after school. My whole family ending up having dinner together, which is something we have not done in weeks. All of us are just so busy all the time.
We were happily discussing about the contribution of raisins to our lives when I choked on a chicken bone. as in, I swallowed the whole freaking thing, which happened to be shaped like half an umbrella and just about as big as a drawer key. which is, huge. People who choke on things the size of this would end up in the hospital. Okay scratch that, they would basically die. Then on their death certificate it would be indicated as "death by choking", which is extremely pathetic. If I ever die, I want my death certificate to say something like, "death by sacrificing her life for those of the world." yeah right, like that would ever happen. Okay back to the story, where was I? Yup, so I suddenly grabbed my sister and started coughing and trying to get the bone up. My whole family was panicking and after minutes of this near death experience, I finally got the bone out with the aid of my mum. She stuck her whole hand down my throat and took it out, no kidding! Even now as I think about it, it still scares me so much. It is so terribly scary that it is not even funny at all.
So the morale of the story is, never talk about the significance of raisins in your life while eating chicken.

so, you may have guessed by now, that daphne has quite a few treats // toys // extravagances.
shes been getting the bark box for a few months [reviews here & here] & she [we are] is pretty happy with it.
a while back, i purchased a 50% off deal for 1-month of bugsy's box ; its a monthly mail-subscription box, with 1, 3- & 6-month plans.
want to see whats in it?
daphne was so pumped ; she tore apart the box ;)
in the box :
one barkworthies bully stick.
i dont buy these [i dont love the idea of my dog chewing on a bull penis] ; but she has been gifted a few of these in the past. she enjoys them ; but we stick to deer & beef bones that my dad has processed himself. [personal preference ; noting against the company] [also, the bones that daphne gets from my dad were not killed for the bones ; they were already killed for meat]
a small sample of raw bistro stix
AWESOME LOCAL COMPANY ALERT! bistro stix are based in minnesota! [woo hoo!]. they sell these are our local dog shop & we really enjoy them. they are a bit pricey ; but we break them up into smaller pieces & use them for training treats.
all of their products are raw & use local, sustainable ingredients.
a small bag of whole life freeze-dried beef. we have given daphne almost all of the products that whole life makes & we will be customers for life! their packaging, mission & food are great!
[they also make freeze-dried sweet potatoes that daphne will do pretty much anything for ;)]
safemade newt chew toy. we were gifted a different safemade toy in the past & while i think they are great ; they dont last for a turbo-chewer like daphne. see the letter 'l' on the package? it stands for 'light chewer' ; within 15 minutes, three limbs + half the tail were ripped off the newt. she really enjoys chewing on it, so we will keep it until its in 100 pieces ; but i wouldnt go out & purchase these products full-price. ALSO, i am pretty sure [im still waiting to hear back from the company] that these toys are NOT made in the US.
[if you have been here for a while, you know i am a bit of a nut about products that are made in the US]
a sample pack of licks liquid vitamin. she drank this right up [i put it in her food bowl] ; but it had SUCH a strong scent of chicken that i had a really hard time keeping my food down. i suppose if you eat meat, its maybe not such a huge deal, but my goodness ; i forgot what packaged meat smells like.
[i do think she enjoyed this & if blake decides to feed her this ; we would purchase more]
and three small bags of pup chips. snack chips for your dog [people think of everything!]
so far, daphne has tried the liver [the red bag without a label] & the yogurt chips [purple]. these were a hit! made in the us, no scary by-products & a portion of all sales are donated to charity!
stay strong, newt!
not bad, right? i am not sure we will keep this subscription right now ; ONLY because daphne already has tons of treats & toys. and selfishly, my student loans are SO close to being paid off, that all i want to do is pinch every penny i see & throw it towards my debt.
[pinch pinch pinch]
once they are paid off, i would be interested in continuing my subscription.
if YOU are interested, check out bugsy's box here.
*disclaimer : i purchased this box at a discount ; but with my own money. bugsy's box doesnt know who i am ; nor do any of the companies i reviewed above. everything is personal opinion & i really just like good companies that do good things!*

Statement Regarding Follow-up Actions after May 1 Incident
Hello to faculty, staff, parents and community members. Today, I would like to provide an update regarding actions taken by the school district after a knife was discovered in a student's backpack last year.
On May 1, school administrators at Avon Middle High School searched the backpack of a middle school student and found a knife. While the school department notified the Avon Police Department promptly, the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education sent the district a letter over the summer indicating that its review of this situation found that the Avon Public Schools is required by law to notify the Department of Children and Families after any incident involving a child with weapon in their possession.
Working with the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, the Avon Public Schools has revised its training curriculum for all faculty and staff and will notify all employees regarding this legal requirement at the start of the new school year on Aug. 28. The memo will also be sent to DESE, and once it is received and reviewed, the matter will be considered closed.
In the district's correspondence with DESE, the state department also reminded the Town of Avon that it is required to designate a school resource officer. I worked with the Avon Police Department to secure this position and I look forward to announcing the individual chosen as soon as the Avon Police Department has filled that position.
For the coming school year, we are also seeking to implement a new notification policy. If ever there is an incident at a school that draws the interest of the public, the School District will send an immediate notification home to families detailing -- within the boundaries set by law -- what occurred and what actions are being taken.
I understand that there is a tremendous desire for information, especially when it involves something potentially dangerous like a weapon being brought to school. However, state and federal law are clear in what we can and cannot say.
With that in mind, I am aware that rumor and false information thrives in the absence of facts. The May 1 incident should have been reported to the Department of Children and Families, and DESE has given us guidance on this matter. We will continue to notify parents of these issues as soon as possible, and we are implementing a new communications plan to further improve our relationship with residents.
I apologize for our failure to notify the proper state agency and I will continue to work toward positive and active communication with the community going forward. By updating and implementing new procedures this year, we expect that there will be less miscommunication and speculation and more dialog with families, faculty, and staff.

A Message From COCOY, Sulu Human Rights Defender
(Translator's Note: I received this original message by email last Sunday, February 19, 2012. It is originally written in Bahasa Sug by my fellow Tausug colleague, Temogen "Cocoy" S. Tulawie, Sulu-Human Rights Defender. I strive to translate this upon his request. Join me in supplicating and entrusting his well-being, his wife's and his offsprings' to ALLAH who renders justice to anyone who steadfastly grasp His Most Trustworthy Handhold and in total surrender to ALLAH's Will. Aameen Ya Rabb)

Temogen Sulu-Human Rights Defender
The English Translation Version
by Jihad al Akbar:
Assalamualaykum wa rahmatullahi taala wa barakatuhu!
Foremost, I bestow my thankfulness to Allah for not forsaking me, my wife and my children. Allah made a lot of means and instruments- such as help coming from various communities and diverse nations and/or faiths- so that my family and I will not suffer so much difficulty.
Likewise, I extend my thanks to all the organizations who have been helping me all this time: Mindanao People's Caucus (MPC); Balay Rehabilitation Center; Saligan; Task Force Detainees of the Phil. (TFDP); Consortium of BangsaMoro Civil Society (CBCS); Initiative for International Dialogue (IID); AKBAYAN Party List; Philippine Alliance of Human Rights Advocates (PAHRA); HRD-Pilipinas; Jihad al Akbar and PAHRA-WesMin; United Against Torture Coalition (UATC); Free Debt Coalition; Front Line (Protection of Human Rights Defender); Indonosia Legal Aid Foundation; Asian Human Rights Commission (AHRC) of Hong Kong; Bread for the World of Germany; Non Violence Peace Force (NP);Human Rights Watch International. I also include all those I may have not mentioned here.
My beloved citizens of Lupah Sug, I know how much you love and value me; I also know that you desire to aid me; however, there is a reason why you cannot manifest openly your support for me. It has come to my knowledge that many from among you lawyers, doctors, professors along with other CSOs have previously conferred last January 15, 2012. You met to strategize about certain ways and means to help me out from my predicament but unfortunately you were as soon stifled. Patience my brethren, let us exercise restraint; and Allah is witness, I do not wish that anyone from you will incur any mishap all because of me. Only there is one thing that saddens me though: if the professionals or highly educated ones -such as lawyers, doctors, professors and CSO groups- lose the "freedom to speak out" what they wish to express, then, what has befallen our homeland now? I believe that whatever oppression they will inflict upon the citizens of Lupah Sug, there still will sprout two to three people who will rise up in defense of the rights of the people so that our struggle will not end---this is our struggle to be emancipated from the confines of oppressive poverty and our striving to be liberated from the shackles of oppressive fear.
My brethren, do not despair that much if you have been thwarted in manifesting your support for me; even if it be merely in your heart, it is as much valuable and great help. Just recently someone visited me and told me, "Coy, if we are the ones in trouble, you have been able to help us, you fully defend our rights, however, when you were the one who's hit, we cannot even help you. We are reduced to be just a mere onlooker and eavesdropper. Please bear with us, our young brother, we are incapable to buttress the sky." I repeat fervently, there is no cause for you to be anxious because Allah has many ways from various zones so that my well-being will not be neglected. There are many people who are helping me here in Davao to Bukidnon, CDO, Iligan, Marawi, Cotabato, GenSan, Pagadian and even in Manila. Just last Saturday, some human rights org in Manila held a press conference regarding my case. Help are coming my way even from as far as Indonesia, Hongkong and Germany. All these are evidence of the Majestic Power of Allah.
I have not returned to Sulu for two years and 4 months now. I can say that this is the most difficult trial that I have undergone in my lifetime, until I am now detained in this cell for a month and two days now. Notwithstanding, this is the moment when I have contemplated well about my homeland. Inside this cell, we listen to news from the radio often. I often hear Pnoy administration's radio program, "Matuwid na Daan." I told myself the straight path that they are proclaiming here has not reached Sulu.
What transpired during the term of Gloria still persists today; I can even say that poverty has worsened, the foolishness of the "Elders" (elective officials) of Sulu has likewise worsened. Chaos has germinated in the hearts and minds in most of us. This is the consequence of the National government that tolerates our local officials; it even seems that they are in connivance with each other so that we will be trapped within oppression from time to time. Manila government has let our leaders and politicians rob us and indulge in corruption of our land so that we will straggle in poverty.
The poverty that has struck us is no petty matter. It has reached the point that even siblings will not help each other. The other one would think if he shares his own share, by tomorrow he will be left with nothing for himself. We even have lost our traditional values that once even what we are about to feed into our mouth we would rather give to our neighbor who has greater hunger than we have.
My brethren, our kinship ties have been severed by poverty, and so we have lost our solidarity (even in fact unity is demanded by our faith). We no longer have the time to think about our homeland, our thoughts are focused to our stomach.
Likewise, Manila government has not only tolerated corruption by those who govern us, it has also ignored their buying and hoarding of arms in order to sow terror among us; so they can do whatever they want according to their whims- this includes despoiling the daughters of the poor masses such as that of the "Gang Rape case in 2009."
Why did the National Government ignore the foolishness of those who govern us? Perhaps the reason could be that we still shout out our dignity and rights as human beings to the whole world; because we are aware that "our substantive rights as human beings is the door that leads to the freedom of our nation."
I ask you my brethren, do you think that in this kind of predicament that we are embroiled in, and most especially that our siblings in the hinterlands and islands are all in, too: do we have any other option apart from the need to unite? Well, we only have two options to choose from: "to just let it be" or "to unite then to reflect." We must implant in our minds, that if we remain indifferent, the next breed of generation will blame us and we shall be our offsprings' and grandchildren's source of shame. They can never proclaim that their father or their grandfather struggled for the ancestral domain, for the nation, and most of all for our deen from Allaahu Taala. Let us not reason out that we failed to wage a struggle in defense just because we were armless, there is more powerful than arms, we do not need arms, all we need to do is to know and understand our human rights. Absolutely the government is prohibited from degrading us, making us feel that we do not have rights and dignity. My brethren, whatever decadence we can see thriving in our midst at the moment is a consequence of our apathy.
There is truth in the saying, "if a good person remains idle in his own inertness that is the moment that Satan shall reign." My brethren, our homeland has become the laughingstock of all nations in the world.
Lastly, my being incarcerated shall NOT become a reason for me to stop from speaking the truth. Likewise, my imprisonment shall NOT become the reason that I will abandon what I have initiated in the span of 13 years striving to achieve the rights of my own people, my own homeland, and my own nation.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Oh Scorpio, you need to stop using Wikipedia as a credible source. Your instructor is catching on. Try a .org or .gov website. You wouldn't want to fail the course for a third time.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Hey Sag, could you stop Googling your symptoms? Web MD does not have all the answers. No, you do not have cancer. On the other hand, Google can help you get out of the house. Make plans to go on a date with your zodiac match, Martin Van Buren.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
This month you'll be in a bit of a scandal. But don't worry — nothing like Watergate. Maybe you should stop being so paranoid, Capricorn. You wouldn't want to end up like Richard Nixon.
Aquarius (Jan. 20- Feb. 18)
Don't waste your time and energy this month, Aquarius. Just pour yourself another drink because it's going to be a long one. Stop arguing with people who don't understand, just subtweet them.
Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)
Try something different this month, Pisces. Maybe watch a new show on Netflix or learn how to read. You don't want to end up like George Washington.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
How's your month been, Aries? I hope you haven't cried too much. Founding father and Declaration of Independence author Thomas Jefferson is your match. Grab a glass of wine and watch "National Treasure" to feel close to your long-lost love.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Remember when you were a child and your parents said you could be anything you wanted? Even the president? Yeah, I would stick to something a bit easier. Maybe a retail job.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Lucky duck, your Gemini zodiac match is John F. Kennedy. Even though he lived a short life and continued the Kennedy curse, he still got it on with Marilyn Monroe. Make your time count this week, and talk to that Marilyn Monroe look-alike in your chemistry class.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Oh Cancer, Cancer, Cancer. I'm sorry, but your match is the one and only George W. Bush. Get rid of that creepy smile and pull your head out of your you-know-what. Hope you don't ruin anything else in your life this week.
Leo (July 3-Aug. 22)
Hey Leo, how's it going? Have you been feeling OK? Any regrets eating at you? Wait, don't answer that. I'm not your therapist. I know you've been feeling a little overwhelmed, but you're almost out of the spotlight. Just wait a few more months and you'll no longer be known as President Obama. You'll be known as Michelle's husband.
Virgo (Aug. 23- Sept. 22)
Leave the Halloween candy behind this month. Instead, go out and vote. Maybe vote for someone called Billary Blinton?
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Don't be weak this month, Libra. You wouldn't want to get the same rep as Jimmy Carter. Stand your ground and don't let anyone make you cry.

In this game you pick one of 6 factions and battle in typical RTS-style your opponents. But Intruder Alert isn't like other strategy games. While in other games you have unit limits, Intruder Alert has no limits except your pc power. Moreover ressources are drain realistically and your population grows exponential. Besides all factions differ greatly. For example the Ixir can transform all their buildings into vehicles and backwards and the Mercoss use only drones for all their economic jobs. The story of Intruder Alert is shortly that you are an Ixir from a foreign Galaxy, who is the first of his race leaving their galaxy and finds the Milky Way galaxy. There you get to know many diffrent races, which are currently in war with each other. The game plays many years in the future, where the humans are already part of an alliance containing diffrent alien races. In the Milky Way you also have to cope problems of any kind. If you want to know the details, play the game!
A 2D top-down SciFi RTS with huge battles and innovative gameplay. Choose one of 6 totally different factions and play against/with AI and other players...

- The biggest mistake I've made in the last week would definitely be getting coffee before chapter at 8 PM last night. I need someone to never let me do that again. I try to pretend caffeine doesn't have an effect on me, but seeing as it took me hours to fall asleep last night I think I need to give up that facade. Right now I'm saying "never again" but I am a college student, so let's see how long that lasts amiright ladies??
- I bought a textbook from the University of Arkansas bookstore online a week ago and received an order confirmation email that day. But instead of there being a charge on my account, there was a transaction of $0.00 from them instead. And now there is nothing at all. I still don't have the book I need. Which means I should probably call someone or go in to ask about it, but I don't want to be an adult.
- Past me thought that having a two hour plus break between every class was a great idea. Or she didn't really think about how awful that would be. Either way, every day of this semester has felt like it has lasted for 7 years. I honestly don't know what to do with myself between classes. I guess I can use that time to study or do homework, but it feels weird guys. My brain is CONFUSED about my schedule right now.
- So TBS has a brother fraternity called Kappa Kappa Psi, and each MC of the organizations gets a big brother and a big sister. Last year, I became my big brother's first ever and only little – but now she (both of our organizations are co-ed) has three more!!!! Through this, I am realizing that I am 100% needy and an attention hog and I don't like sharing love. All things that are wholly personal problems that I need to work on. (In all seriousness, I love all of my co-littles and they deserve all the love Becca has to give them and I know there is enough of her to go around). And more importantly than Becca getting to share her abundant love, I got a heckin' cool little brother!!
- Me to boy: hey wanna get free ice cream sometime Boy: sure sounds fun Me: cool, this weekend? Boy: yeah that's awesome Boy: actually my cousin thinks you're hot and wants to come with us Me: SCREAMS INTERNALLY FOREVER (this may be an oversimplification but also exactly how it happened okay)

Spiritual Goosebumps
My story:
I was raised in a Christian home that faithfully attended church. The abuse I experienced as a child was not from within the home, but like so many others, from people close. It started young enough that I don't remember ever even realizing it was wrong or abusive. This was just part of life.
Being a victim of an abuse, if not worked through, makes you more vulnerable for other abuse. Such was the case with me.
Aside from the abuse issues, I was on a downward spiritual slope. I wanted what was evil, I sought it. I was into drugs, alcohol, spiritism, promiscuity; my thoughts were vile and I hated me! I had great grades, was considered to be a good kid by friend's parents (which means we got away with more) and other than my very obviously immodest attire, most would never have guessed that my backpack had whiskey my friend stole from her parents for me and very few books! I lead others into temptation and sin, some of them away from God and toward what is evil. I struggle sometimes looking at what has come in their life that I had a part in. What a train wreak! I was desperate. I hated me and wanted the easy out. I considered suicide and the person who "saved me" from myself, built trust in me he later decided to take advantage of. I found myself wondering if it is abuse when you are compelled to do something and it leads to a place you don't want to go? yet do anyway.
I continued to spiral out of control, but got my head together enough to get off of drugs and alcohol. By this time I was 13. After an inappropriate relationship with a 32 year old man (yes when I was 13) things began to really change. I attended a Back to Genesis conference with my mom. I'm not even sure what all happened there, but it was moving and exciting! Change was really getting a hold of me and I felt different.
I decided to look into this religion thing. I researched and studied. I had a group of friends that would discuss this at lunch with me. One became Jewish at the end of it!
Then one night I felt broken in my spirit. I wept and repented, but felt I was being moved to go to my mom and confess. I felt the Spirit really moving me, and believe me I was fighting going to confess, but I had no peace! I went and spilled all of the contents of my heart to her. I sought forgiveness, and though I don't remember saying some official prayer or anything I look back to this night as the day I received Salvation.
I was saved from much! Much more than many even realize if they only know who I am now. I am so unlike that person that at times it is hard to believe it was me!
I did not mature quickly in the faith, and found myself in habits of sin, especially double mindedness and promiscuity. I was perfectly capable of going Monday through Saturday living my way, and carving out Sunday for God... or at least enough time for church and Sunday School. I taught children's Sunday school and VBS, went on missions to Mexico... but really I was so compartmentalized that I never considered my hypocrisy. Until I couldn't hide it!
God chose to bless me in my sin, and I have Ysabella to show for it!
This is where more big changes jump in!
As a 17 year old high school student I was quite frightened over the idea of telling my mom, let alone everyone else that I was pregnant, but I chose to face it head on. Our church helped me to confess my sin in front of a Sunday school group they had chosen for me, and Dave (who was not a Christian yet) to attend. I started to look at what life as a Christian was really to be and to strive to seek His help to be that way!
The next really big Spirit moving experience I had came when we were pregnant for the second time in 2005. The first pregnancy had ended in miscarriage and had been hard on me, as well as our three littles who were so overjoyed to be having a new sibling. (Of the kids, it was probably hardest on Ysa, who was 5, and confusing for the other two at almost 3 and 1.)
Our first ultrasound showed a cute little bean of a baby ;) who was wiggling and had an excellent heart beat! The kids got to watch the newest Rivas on the screen and we were so excited! I got really sick! The next month was a struggle to keep things down and I had a trip to the ER for dehydration. At our second visit, as we tried to hear a heart beat, there was nothing. The nurse acted like it happened sometimes, old me to get dressed again, we'd move to the next room over for an ultrasound. She left to prepare the room, and give me privacy, and I cried out to God.
"Lord, I want to want what you have planned. Please prepare my heart for what is coming." And the Spirit moved, and I was deeply sad. I know God was answering my prayer, and allowing me to be ready. I felt overwhelmed with the sadness, yet comforted to feel the Comforter there with me. The nurse asked if my family in the waiting area should come, I said no. As we saw our baby on the screen, still as small as last time, with no heart beat I cried. We brought in my family, and as my now 6 year old saw our baby she said, "Mommy. Did our baby go to be with Jesus?" I said, "Yes Sweetie. This baby is with Jesus now." The next weeks were full with grief, the D&C I dreaded, and the sweet comfort of my Savior! I can look back there and remember that closeness; that resting peace.
The gold came out of the furnace further refined, and the dross swept away. I had a new understanding, a new outlook, and a new tender place for others.
God has used my sin, my circumstances, my pain, my joys to make me who I am now. God will continue to work until He has brought it to completion! Thank you Jesus! May you be glorified in me!
Do you have a story to share that could encourage someone walking a path you have? Do you have a testimony to the beauty that God will bring out of the ashes of your trials?

Praise God! Victory!!! So very glad you were delivered from a life of sadness, abuse and hopelessness. When we know Christ, hope is sure and beautiful!
It truly is my desire to see people claim their victories! Through my blog I've received many many emails from discouraged women... even Christian women who are despairing. I continually tell them that they CAN DANCE AGAIN! But they have to fight for it. God says, "Be strong and of a good courage. Be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go!" We must do our part and realize that the victory is found IN JESUS CHRIST!
Joseph is one of my heroes in scripture. He was so abused and used and treated so poorly, but he rose above the conflict and always found a way to escape the emotional turmoil by serving and being productive wherever he went. That's how I want to be. Always. :)God was glorified in his life as he was courageous and purposed to overcome conflict.
Thanks for sharing your story Monica.
Your friend,

After countless hours lost to Hulu Plus, the Daily Burn ad finally caught my attention and pushed me to check it out. The 30 day free trial sold it too.
I've never been a fan of at-home workout videos like Insanity or T25. I like getting out of the house and going to the gym to put in some serious work. In the end, I just needed to change my perspective and now I love having a second option to get my fitness on.
It's not an either or situation. I still find my way to the gym several times a week, but for those weekend days when I have no motivation to leave my house or if I am short on time, or if I find myself making any other excuse, pulling out my iPad or laptop and squeezing in 30 minutes of a cardio video is so convenient. I love it. It's a workout on the go and I totally see the value of that.
Daily Burn offers a free trial for a whole month and after the trial is over, it's $10 a month thereafter. You have access to all sorts of videos and they are adding new ones all the time. I've tried kickboxing, cardio, sports drill, dance fitness videos and there are still other yoga/Pilates videos I have yet to dive into. There's definitely even some for pregnant women which I thought was really considerate. Definitely not bored. Love the variety and I love how you can customize your workout type based on time, difficulty level, and type of workout.
This is my first experience with a streaming workout session so I don't really know how it compares to others. But I do like how it gives you an estimate of calories burned and you can also log challenges, weight, etc.
It's definitely worth checking out and a great way to mix things up at home when laziness takes over. I can also see how convenient this would be for people on the go or constantly traveling. Check it out and let me know what you think!

Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy, also known as CTE, is a progressive degenerative disease of the brain. Common symptoms of CTE are memory loss, confusion, impaired judgement, depression, aggression, and disorientation. So far CTE has only been discovered after the death of individuals carrying the brain disorder. CTE is found in the brains of athletes who play contact sports such as football, boxing, rugby, and soccer. This disease forms after repetitive trauma to the brain and can develop months, years, or decades after the last head trauma. The brains of individuals who suffer from CTE deteriorate and eventually start losing mass. Bennet I. Omalu, M.D and Julian Bailes, M.D were the first doctors to discover CTE in the brain of a professional football player in 2002. Fred McNeill, a former Minnesota Viking linebacker, died in November of 2015 at the age of 63. His death was caused by complications with ALS but his autopsy showed that he was suffering from CTE as well.

Every year, reputable dictionaries publishes a list of new words that they will be including in their next dictionary. The addition of these words to the lexicon as reflection of popular usage and the fact that the language is constantly developing. Everyone knows Shakespeare's contribution to the language, words that were not used before, or at least did not appeared in print.
Now, Jacqui Lambie is emerging as Australia's very own Shakespeare.
With the advent of TV and Internet communications such as Twitter and Facebook, it is easier to invent, circulate, and monitor new words.
Last night on 7.30, the semi-articulate Senator put in a bid for her contribution with, "Malcolm Turnbull has comatosed the Australian people."
It's a simple but effective change. Commatose is an adjective meaning, amongst other things, torpid,inactive, lethargic, sluggish, lifeless. Lambie has turned a word into a verb, its meaning being to make torpid, inactive, lethargic, sluggish, lifeless.
It's an excellent innovation because it describes very well the verbal activities of our Prime Minister who is currently lulling the nation, and himself, to sleep.
This use of the word deserves much wider use and one can only hope that its application as a verb, applying to the anodyne utterances of Malcolm Turnbull, will see it including the lexicon.

FYI: Laughing your ass off while getting over a serious sinus problem hurts.
And I've been laughing for a good thirty minutes.
What's that, Chicken Little? The sky is falling? Oh really? Are you sure?
Here's the thing: They never were sure. They used the "global warming" hysteria as a political maneuver to try to bring the US to heel. And they ended up starving a lot of people, wrecking many countries' economies, and converting a lot of people to the false Church of Global Warming.
And for their next act, they'll ignore the increasing number of man-made climate change dissenters because the dissenters are obviously in the pocket of Big Mean Ol' Business.
So where's my check Big Business? I'm waiting.
UPDATE: HA! Imagine no Global Warming. Cute.

When it comes to doing makeup, finding out the correct skin tone is probably the most important factor. To do this, look at the inside of your forearm and wrist, where you should see veins. If your veins appear slightly greenish, that means you have a yellow skin undertone or a warm skin tone. If your veins appear more bluish, you have bluish-pinkish undertones or a cold skin tone. If you can not clearly make out the color of your veins, and the overall area has a beige tint, then you have neutral skin tone.
Another easy way of figuring out your skin tone is to wash your face completely. Get rid of any trace of makeup. Stand in front of the bathroom mirror and hold a plain white sheet of paper next to your face. If your face starts looking slightly yellow or red, then you have a warm skin tone. If your face looks pbluish then your skin tone is cool. If your face looks brownish then your skin tone is neutral.
When it comes to lip, eye and nail color, people with warm skin tones generally look good in shades of browns, tans, corals, reds, bronze etc. People with cool skin undertones on the other hand look great in foundations with shades of ivory, and browns. While pink, rose, mauve, berry, red, plum, wine, orange etc. look good on them in lipstick, nail polish and eye color. People with neutral skin tone tend to have the easiest time finding foundation, concealer, and powders that are just right for them. In fact, those with neutral skin tones may find they can easily wear more than one shade in any given foundation lineup.
Of course finding the right skintone is only part of the equation to finding the right colors for you to wear. We have to take into account the color of your eyes and hair. But that will be another post. Right now just find out what your skintone is and we will go from there.

Orgone Drop Some Heavy Soul and Funk on Tour For "Beyond the Sun"
Orgone is one of the most exciting bands in the new generation of funk bands; led by the powerhouse vocals of Adryon de Leon, Orgone recalls such legendary groups as Rufus and Sly & The Family Stoneat their best! The band has backed Alicia Keys on her "As I Am" album and Cee Lo Green on his Grammy-winning track "Fool For You." Beyond The Sun is the most complete fulfillment of Orgone's full spectrum of sound, ranging from the "in the pocket" funk of "Don't Push Your Luck" to the evocative balladry of "No Pain" to the clubby-jam of the title track and the scorching instrumental workouts on "Meat Machine" and "Sabi." A highlight is a hot version of Rufus' "I'm A Woman (I'm A Backbone)."
For over a decade, Orgone has been steaming up nightclubs and drenching the largest music festivals in the country in sweat. Serving a cold-blooded concoction of deep soul, rare funk, and afro-disco with a raw rock star edge that is uniquely LA, Orgone's music grabs you by the collar, pulls you to your feet, and shoves you out onto the dance floor. Tough, sexy, and adventurous, this sonic muscle car shifts through multiple gears from slyly slinky to seismically cinematic, while remaining spacious and uncluttered. eMusic says: "Their music is terrifically unfussy, big slabs of grizzled R&B, greasy as fatback, and thick as a very particular kind of smoke." For their searing live performances and warm, dirty homegrown recordings, Orgone has been called "One of the heaviest acts we've heard in years" by Dusty Groove America.
The band is a symbiosis of eight seasoned musicians, at the core of which are keyboardist Dan Hastie and guitarist Sergio Rios who started creating classic sounds as green teens brought together by a mutual affinity for raw soul recordings. Members of Orgone have collaborated/performed with the Roots, Al Green, Gil Scott-Heron, Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, Breakestra, Thievery Corporation, and the Monophonics. As tight in the studio as they are on stage, …as the backing band on Cee Lo Green's multiple Grammy Award-winning track "Fool for You" and Alicia Keys' "As I Am" album.
Up front and unmistakable is Adryon de Leon, Orgone's lightning rod, whose hearty, agile vocals are an intoxicating foil to the gritty intensity of the band. Orgone is currently getting their hands dirty in KillionSound, their Fortress of Soulitude, injecting the pure, passionate heat of their live sound into wax. Throughout this year, the band will maintain a strong touring presence while tantalizing crowds with new material from their Shanachie release Beyond the Sun

My most recent Trader Joe's finds:
Hi all! So when it comes to food, I only shop at Trader Joe's… and for those of you that don't know, there are some pretty incredible items that have the potential of flying under your radar if you don't look carefully. Here are my most recent finds/loves at our beloved Trader Joe's.
For dinner:
Spelt Rissotto (with added turkey bacon)
I've been making this one for a while but only recently have I appreciated how great it is. I cook it as the package directs and then cook 3 strips of TJ's uncured peppered turkey bacon on the side, chop it up and throw it in. Voila! Please try it!
For side dish:
Brussels Sprouts (with added turkey bacon)
I can't not share this recipe with you. The TJ's item I'm referring to is simply a bag of brussels sprouts. But you need the whole recipe. I made this the other night (swapping butter for olive oil and omitting the onions). It was… amazing. And the trader joe's packaged Brussel sprouts come in the perfect sized bag. Here it is: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/sunny-anderson/pan-roasted-brussels-sprouts-with-bacon-recipe.html
For my sweet tooth:
Pound Plus Bittersweet Chocolate with Almonds
My only caution is to try and not eat this all in one sitting. It's baker's chocolate technically, but seriously tastes like a dream. My perfect dessert (add a glass of red wine if you will).
For the kiddo:
Organic Animal Crackers
ORGANIC animal crackers. Josh is obsessed with these. And I let the whole organic thing win me over, so I give these to him as a snack or dessert.
For a drink:
Spindrift Seltzer with raspberries and lime
I don't let myself drink soda, so this is the perfect substitute. For all you soda drinkers, just a warning that this isn't super sweet, so don't expect it to be. But it has more of a kick than regular sparkling water AND they use real raspberries & lime!
For my cheese & crackers craving:
Toscano Cheese with Black Pepper
Definitely my favorite cheese at TJ's (& trust me, I have tried A LOT of their cheese). This one is perfect and goes great with crackers & prosciutto.
A couple things I didn't like:
Sweet Plantain Chips
NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH REGULAR THEIR PLANTAIN CHIPS. They have these new ones that are bigger and called SWEET plantain chips. Maybe my expectations were high… but I just think they're nothing compared to the other ones.
Cornbread Mix
I used this for this awesome recipe I have where I cover cornbread with Mexican chicken & vegetables mixture and top it with cheese… Nick & both agreed that everything about this meal was perfect except the cornbread from TJ's is not so good. They put little pieces of corn in it that taste like inedible rubber. I will definitely make my own cornbread next time.

The BB SEAWEED Fresh Face Mask is one of the best masks I have ever used for my skin. Its relaxing, reviving and calming. It has little chunks of fresh nutritious SEAWEED, kaopin, antiseptic honey, aloe vera and rose absolute which makes this a great mask for everyone. The reason why I like it is because it works wonders on my skin, my skin is full of spots and other blemishes but since I have been using this face mask it has been reducing the amount of spots I have. When you open up the lid you notice its not like any other face mask you see, that's mainly due to the little chunks of seaweed you get. When you put your fingers in, it feels lumpy and really thick which I don't really like because when you first use it, it doesn't really feel relaxing but after you get used to it, it is and as you all know, lush face masks are handmade.
- Lime tree flower and sweet violet leaf decoction (tilia europaea and viola odorata), kaoplin, honey, Glycerine, Ground almonds ( prunus dulcis), Toothed wrack seaweed (fucus serratus) fair trade organic aloe vera gel (aloe barbadensis) millet flakes (panicum millaceum), organic extra virgin olive oil (olea europaea), bentonite gel, fresh rose petals (rosa centifolia), rose absolute (rosa damascena), patchouli oil (pogostemon cabling), rosemary oil (rosmarinus officinallis), seaweed absolute (fucus vesiculosus) * citral, *geraniol, *benzyl benzoate, * limonea, *linalool, perfume *occurs naturally in essential oils
BB seaweed is for exfoliating the delicate skin without irritating it.
BB seaweed is for exfoliating the delicate skin without irritating it.
- made of seven pounds of nutrient rich seaweed.
- Rose absolute oil in BB seaweed to improve skin's texture and tone
How to use - take out of the fridge, apply a generous layer over the face, avoiding the eyes. Leave on for 5 to 10 minutes, then gently scrub off with warm water.
The one thing I don't really like about this product is that you have to keep it in the fridge or else it will go off and it would be a waste of money but otherwise I recommend buy this because its worth the money.

GREENVILLE, NC – When Taylor Waters began volunteering for the American Red Cross in 2010, she never dreamed she would be receiving national recognition for her efforts. But in November 2012, the 19-year-old resident of Sanford, NC was awarded Nickelodeon's Helping and Leading Others (HALO) Award for her ongoing efforts with the American Red Cross.
Waters was compelled to volunteer for the Red Cross when her grandmother's house burned down. She watched as the disaster service volunteers tended to her grandmother's needs. She said, "I saw the assistance they gave her and I wanted to be that for somebody else."
Through her volunteer work, Waters soon found herself on the National Youth Council for the Red Cross. This council consists of 13 members across the United States. "We work to further the youth initiatives and have a voice for the youth," Waters said. As a council, they engage in two phone calls per week and quarterly meetings throughout the year. Waters serves as the Committee Chair for Field Relations.
Associate Producers for Nickelodeon's HALO Awards were in search of a teen performing disaster-oriented services, so they contacted the Red Cross. Among those whose information was given to producers, Waters stood out because of her work with the National Youth Council.
Waters has been paired, through HALO, with actor Josh Duhamel as he is an active supporter of the disaster services of the Red Cross.
Aside from her volunteer and council member efforts, Waters is also creating a Red Cross club at East Carolina University where she is currently a sophomore. She began the club because she hopes to see college students more involved with the American Red Cross on campus. The club is still in its interest-meeting stages, but Waters is already planning. She intends to have a fundraising event on campus to provide relief for those affected by Hurricane Sandy.
Overall, Water said, "Volunteering has affected me immensely. You don't realize it until after. It's amazing to see how much you can grow when you're helping others." She says she is thankful for the opportunities given to her by the Red Cross and Nickelodeon. Very humbled, Waters said, "This has been a really great opportunity for not only me, but the Red Cross as well."

HOLLYWOOD — The Confederate flag that for years flew over Young Circle soon could be replaced by a historical plaque.
The flag could be coming down as a result of protests from some of the city's black residents, who say the flag is a racist reminder of the past.
On Wednesday, the city's African-American Advisory Council agreed to a compromise after listening to an hour of emotional debate from those on several sides of the issue - blacks, white supremacists, history buffs and veterans.
The compromise: Remove the Confederate flag, along with the flags of other nations that once ruled Florida, and replace them with a plaque depicting those flags and their historical significance to the state.
The American flag, along with the city and state flags, will remain in the circular park at Hollywood Boulevard and Federal Highway.
The City Commission will vote on the advisory council's recommendation at its April 20 meeting.
Compromise appeared to be the only solution to quell the concerns of a group of people whose opinions were as divided as the side of the room they sat on.
The flag, which Confederate soldiers carried into battle, represents a piece of history or a painful reminder of white-dominated slavery, depending on which side you're on.
In 1951, the Confederate flag was flown over Young Circle along with flags from Spain, Great Britain and France. The rebel Confederate flag was taken down in January 1990 after residents protested it was a racist symbol. Three months later, at the request of local veteran Bill Locke, it was put back up.

I've mentioned before how much I wish I could dance. Like really dance. Like dance for a living, and I don't mean pole dancing. My favorite show is So You Think You Can Dance which debuted in May of 2005, just after Ayay was born. I was a fan from Season 1 and have continued to be impressed by the performances on the show. I have a strong appreciation and love for dance, and for some reason I felt the desire to post my favorite performances from the 2009 SYTYCD season. Maybe these routines will inspire you to get up and dance! Maybe?
Here's a little "gravity-less dancing:"

Ever since I found that I was listed on the Douglas Archives, I've been wondering how I might be connected to their family. I think I may have found out via the Ahnentafel sent by Rafael Alberto Madan (my 8th cousin twice removed, see more here). So I started with my (7th Generation) ancestor Alexander Gibson-Maitland, who married Susan Ramsay on 25 Mar 1819. She was the eldest daughter of George Ramsay, of Barnton, and Jean Hamilton, his wife. I then found George and Jean on Stirnet.com, and found a connection with the Douglas family as follows:
— 8th Generation —
Jean Hamilton (b 26.01.1769, d 09.10.1841); m. (24.02.1791) George Ramsay of Barnton (d 02.1810)
— 9th Generation —
Robert Hamilton, 6th of Wishaw, de jure 6th Lord Belhaven (b 03.05.1731, 3rd son); m. (11.02.1764) Susan Balfour (d 09.01.1789, dau of Sir Michael Balfour, Bart of Denmiln)
— 10th Generation —
William Hamilton, 4th of Wishaw (b 02.02.1690, d 16.04.1756); m. (16.12.1726) Bethia Hamilton (b 31.01.1702, d 02.10.1785, dau of Charles Hamilton of Weatherley)
— 11th Generation —
Robert Hamilton, younger of Wishaw (b 06.07.1664, dvp); m. (1668) Jean Hamilton (dau of Robert Hamilton of Brownmuir)
— 12th Generation —
William Hamilton, 3rd of Wishaw (d c1726, 3rd son); m1. (1660) Anne Hamilton (dau of John Hamilton, 7th of Udston)
— 13th Generation —
William Hamilton, 1st of Wishaw (d c1642); m. (08.1621) Beatrix Douglas (dau of James Douglas of Morton)
Seems like James was a popular Douglas family name, so I' might need help tracking this one down. In the meantime, I found an interesting inclusion in the The Gentleman's Magazine about William Ramsay Ramsay, esq:
WILLIAM RAMSAY RAMSAY, Esq. March 15. At Barnton House, near Edinburgh, in his 41st year, William Ramsay Ramsay, esq. of that place, and of Bannockburn and Sauchie, со. Stirling. He was the only son and heir of George Ramsay, esq. of Barnton, by the Hon. Jean Hamilton, second daughter of Robert Lord Belhaven. By the death of his father, which occurred in 1810 (when he was still an infant), he became possessed of estates in Midlothian and Stirlingshire to an extent popularly conferring on him the distinction of "the richest commoner in Scotland." He was widely known on the turf for a considerable number of years. At the general election of 1841 he was returned to Parliament without opposition for the county of Midlothian ; but he retired before the dissolution of 1847. Mr. Ramsay married, Aug. 4, 1828, the Hon. Mary Sandilands, only daughter of the present Lord Torphichen ; and has left issue a son and heir, Charles William Ramsay, esq.
The Gentleman's Magazine
Published by F. Jefferies [etc.], 1850
Item notes: v.188 1850 Jan-Jun
(see scan here)
I guessing that George was the brother of Susan Ramsey who married Alexander Gibson-Maitland, given dates and parents names. I can't help smiling at the phrase "he was widely known on the turf for a considerable number of years". None of the protestant work ethos for George, which shouldn't be too surprising given that he was an MP and by the account above "the richest commoner in Scotland."
This engraving above was one of four on a page in the book Old & New Edinburgh, published in 1890. Barnton House is the bigger one in the middles, which the book describes as standing in a magnificently wooded park of 400 acres. In earlier days it had been named Cramond Regis and was once a royal hunting seat. The house was demolished in the early 20th century and modern housing was built on the land.

It's not very usual when close to hundred people don't leave the theatre till the last word of the credits, it's not very usual when people stay glued to their monitors till early morning 3'o clock to get tickets to watch their favorite hero for one last time on the big white screen. It defines 'epic'. The one word which everyone regardless of the movie knowledge they have, claim the Batman trilogy to be.
Nolan who by now has become a blockbuster director like Spielberg didn't have a plan to finish the batman movie after the second installment. His exact words were, "The key thing that makes the third film a great possibility for us is that we want to finish our story […] rather than infinitely blowing up the balloon and expanding the story […] Unlike the comics, these things don't go on forever in film and viewing it as a story with an end is useful. Viewing it as an ending, that sets you very much on the right track about the appropriate conclusion." So that's the plan. He wanted to satisfy people who took Batman as one among them and give it an appropriate conclusion.
Eight years after the District Attorney Harvey Dents death people are living peacefully in a world where organized crime has been abolished and crimes if any take place only to a negligible amount. As Batman's need is also not needed and he's loathed as ever by the people. Bruce Wayne is in self-exile. That's when Bane arrives and he's not as inviting as Joker is so it takes a seductive Cat Woman Anne Hathaway to make him come to the fore. I liked it when Lucius Fox said to Batman, "I like your new girlfriend."
Bale looks menacing, his face adds to the toughness of the character but it was so tough for me to concentrate on what he was saying with the mask on. A series of events make Batman confront Bane or vice versa which leads to a fist fight between them. A well made one that. That's the high point of Bane. If you don't like him in that scene you're not going to like him till the end of the movie. I liked the scene. I liked it because that's the only point where Batman is not able to hide in the darkness. Batman who uses darkness as his weapon doesn't understand that Bane is made out of darkness. It's such a pity when he gets beaten up by Bane. In how many films does the superhero fall so many times? After the first installment it's the villains who are talked about more, than the hero. Poor Batman.
Needless to say Batman 'rises' from the cell (read as hell) and finishes of Bane and saves City. The rising scene is as literal as it could get. The hero jumps to get hold of a cliff for couple of times doesn't get it and finally catches hold of it without ropes. Oh come on give me a break. I came to watch a Nolan film not a Tony Scott one. Nolan has given us what we wanted. But is that the mark of an important director like Nolan. He's never going to make a movie like 'Following' again which is my favorite of his till date. I accept that but why would he make a movie to satisfy the audience instead of throwing them interesting stuff and leaving them spell bound. Audience showed that they are an intelligent lot because in general a movie like The Dark Knight with the protagonist of the stature of Batman getting into darkness is not so easily accepted. Still they loved it.
But I must say what a bunch of lovely actors there were in the film. Crowds favorite Morgan Freeman, sexy Anne Hathaway, sultry Marion Cotillard, dangerous Tom Hardy, courteous Michael Caine and my favorite Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Such a charming kid he is. It's not unusual that after watching a film I tend to get into the shoes of a character. It didn't happen in the first two parts of Batman for me but here if ever I wanted to be one of the characters in the movie it would be of Levitt's. He is not a super hero but he is such a nice human being. Adds charm to the character. His character development in every movie he has acted is smooth, almost flawless. May be the director would have wanted it in that way but you see a kid who is so sincere. He is a type of guy who tries hard to win a match for his team but gets out at 99 but still gets applause from audience.
How earthy his character was. For me the best scene in the movie was when he makes the kids get into the bus. He asks his dad to at least not let the kids lose hope. A scene before that when a kid asks him whether the batman is back he gives a smile. Just perfect. And in the climax it's him the dark knight who rises. The legend of the Batman ends and the dark knight rises.
One more problem with this movie is we miss Joker badly and so does Batman. Most of the people who didn't like this movie have this as the reason, the absence of Joker. I was sure that the legacy of The Dark Knight would not be matched so i was satisfied with the movie.
What you read above is the review of the guy who after a day of thinking came up with. But when I was in theatre I too like everyone shouted and whistled when bats went around after Bruce's climb, when Batman's bikes wheel took a 90 degree turn, when the bat symbol came over the bridge, when Levitt announced himself as Robin and Alfred sees Wayne with Kyle. I like everyone (as said in first paragraph) stayed till the end to see the name 'The Dark Knight Rises' for one last time. Does Nolan give a satisfying epic? Epic is not something which is made to satisfy people. This film satisfied me. If that's the success Nolan wanted he gets it. He gets it big time.

"Why you so fat? Before you more skinny."
"Oh, now you fat. Ha ha ha."
"This one (pointing at my ass) more bigger."
"You eat everyday Mc Donald's?"
What can I say? Welcome back to China to me! The Chinese definitely have a way with "compliments," that's for sure. But, there is something to be said for honesty, right? I think it's called, "Keep your "compliments" to yourself!" Ha ha.
During my blogging hiatus, I managed to pack on an embarrassing ten more pounds. I was/am absolutely disgusting. "Ohh, I'd better go to Taco Bell, who knows when I'll get that again?" The same went for burgers, donuts, muffins… you name it, I ate it.
I did do a brief ten day cleanse through Advocare, but other than that, I worked hard on building this fat butt. Finally an achievement of impressive magnitude, literally. Sigh.
We just downloaded a VPN which will temporarily allow me to blog, go on FB, etc. Now you will get a chance to hear about life in China combined with details of how I once again got into my skinny jeans. With my track record, by the time that happens, skinny jeans will be out of style again. "One mom's quest to be reunited with her WIDE LEGGED TROUSERS," just doesn't sound like such a big feat, if you ask me.
A sneak peek into what's in store for you, my devoted followers of my fatness……
This morning I called the front desk of the hotel where we are temporarily living, to tell them that we had too many mosquitos in the room. Five minutes later a team of men in full gas masks, HazMat jumpsuits, with hoses the width of my head attached to tanks of poison on their backs, were knocking at my door. "Hello lady, you leave now." I was just standing there in my PJ's and bathrobe. Mouth open. Ghost Busters? Somehow I convinced them to come back tomorrow. This time I'd better have my camera ready.

During the past couple of days, I have been thinking long and hard about the Global Bicycle Race which I am aiming to take part in next year. I am trying to decide whether the decision to do the event for the sake of it is right for me. I have always wanted to cycle around the world, but doing it at such speed, will some of the magic be lost?
I have weighed up the arguments and believe the option to do the race is a positive one and because it has a central organisation it will be more motivation to get on with it. I have no doubts in my ability to be able to ride a bicycle and hopefully with my training which has already started I should be in quite good shape to be able to give everything for the race. Some of the naturally beautiful things which will be seen along the way may have to be rushed by, however I am only young and will make a note to revisit the parts of the world which I like the most in the future.
I have read countless stories about round the world travel and believe the attraction which draws me in, is the different cultures and scenarios which are certain to be experienced from around the world. The route I plan to take is probably going to be opposite to most of the other people in the race which will be nice as I will be on the otherside of the world for most of the race as I aiim to head West and won't get caught up on seeing where others are.
At the end of the day, the world record for fastest circumnavigation would be a nice thing to have, but is it the be all and end all, surely the achievement of cycling around the world is pretty impressive however this doesn't mean I'm not going to try my utmost to make a suitable time.

Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS)
The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) integrates all of the textile processing stages, from the fibre to the finished product: the raw fibre must be organic farming certified and all the manufacturing processes involved must be inspected. The aim of this standard is to guarantee the traceability, the use of chemical friendly with the environment and the consumer's health, to ensure a quality system, a reduction of energy and to respect some social criteria.
Soil Association
The Soil Association charity wrote some of the world's first organic standards over 50 years ago. They helped develop the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) which was launched in 2006 and which Soil Association Certification now certifies to.
