Come visit all the rain forests around the world! Don't forget to bring your rain jacket! Rainforests are A rainforest is a hot hummid thick jungle that gets a lot of rain. A large number of plants and animals live there because it supplies many resources. Most rainforests are around the equator because it is so warm.
In the rain forest it's average rain is 50-260 inches of rain per year. The climate is very tropical and humid because there is so much rain. In the rain forest the temperatures are usually 68-93 Fahrenheit. Why does the rain forest get so much rain? The rain forest gets so much rain because it is so hot. How does making it hot make it rain? This is because the hotter the air the more water vapor it can hold. The rain forest has four layers of trees.
The Emergent which is the first layer of the rain forest. These trees are 100-240 feet tall and are very spaced out. These trees are adapted to being umbrella-shaped canopies over the forest. These trees protect all the animals and plants from the harsh sun. they don't protect them from all the sunlight. That's what the upper canopy does.

The head of the Columbia Development Corp. estimates there has been $389.5 million worth of major investment and development projects planned or constructed in the Vista during the past year.
The new Darla Moore School of Business comprises almost $100 million of the total investment, which is a "huge chunk," said Fred Delk, head of Columbia Development Corp. The rest of the development includes private student dormitories, the university's public-private partnership on student housing, the university alumni center and the Hyatt Place hotel.
Together, the projects mark the largest cluster of investment in the Vista since the late 1990s and early 2000s and brings back the excitement that existed before the recession of growth in the Vista area, Delk said.
Delk said he began adding up the figures to discover what has been going on in the area. He said his figures do not include retail such as Urban Outfitters, which opened on Gervais Street during the summer.
The area is attractive for student housing because of the proximity to the business school on Assembly Street, which is planned to be completed in late spring and open for summer classes.
About five student housing complexes worth at least $168 million will double or triple the amount of people who live downtown, he estimated. In addition, Delk valued 200 apartments added to the CanalSide development on Taylor Street at $20 million.
"We are becoming more and more a residential downtown," Delk said.
The university's alumni center will be at the corner of Lincoln and Senate streets, near the Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center. That adds about $26.5 million of Delk's overall estimate.
The alumni center is designed to be a bridge between alumni and the community, said Jack Claypoole, executive director of My Carolina Alumni Association.
"One of the reasons we selected the Vista to be the home for the alumni center is out of the understanding that that is one of the fastest-growing areas in the city," Claypoole said.
It made sense to locate the association's headquarters near restaurants and hotels, he said. The proximity to the proposed cluster of student housing is also a perk.
"One of the most important things that alumni can do is add value to the student experience," Claypoole said. "So having more students in that part of town only complements the mission of the alumni association."
Plans for the student housing complex behind the Carolina Coliseum that is a partnership between the university and a private company go before Columbia's design board on Thursday, according to a draft agenda.
Also on the agenda are a building that Adluh Flour has for lease at 804 Gervais St. and the building at 522 Lady St. Both are requesting preliminary certification for the state's Bailey Bill, which caps property taxes at preconstruction rates to encourage preservation of historic buildings.
The last time investment was "really, really hot" in the Vista was from the mid to late 1990s up until the start of the recession, Delk said.
"The Vista kind of came into its own in that period as a hot development and entertainment area with public uses," Delk said.
The Colonial Life Arena opened in 2002 and the convention center, in 2004. The university also initially had established its plan for the Innovista research district, reaching from Assembly to the Congaree River, around that time, Delk said.

Developing a Comprehensive Ransomware Recovery Plan
If a business finds itself on the end of an attack from a hacker, the chances are good that they will be facing some sort of ransom request. With viruses that encrypt data on a business computer or server, and with hackers demanding money in order to release that data, ransomware has become the virus of choice for many computer hackers. In addition, ransomware recovery has become an important aspect of businesses both big and small.
Sacrificing Data
The question that many people have is what is entailed in recovering from a ransomware attack. In some cases, data will have to be sacrificed in order to effectively and completely remove the applications that run ransomware. The good thing is that an adequate recovery plan typically includes at least one of many effective backup applications. This means that any data that was sacrificed can simply be accessed during the most recent computer backup service.
Improved Employee Security Measures
In some cases, recovering from ransomware brings new purpose to security measures that every employee within the business will need to follow. Many times, a simple mistake or not paying attention to a particular email that was unwittingly opened may have been the main reason the business was targeted by a ransomware virus.
Continual Cyber Security Monitoring
In addition to being more cautious about opening emails, businesses may also upgrade their cyber security services to include 24 hour a day monitoring of their system. This is an excellent way for any potential threats to be headed off at the pass before there is a serious cyber security breach within a business network.
The Hassle of Implementing Changes
The aspects of a recovery plan can be a bit challenging. It may cause employees to expend a bit more time being cautious about how they go about treating unknown emails. These processes may also cost the business a bit of money in improving cyber security features. However, it's the best way to prevent this problem from occurring in the future.
If your business has been through the recovery process after a ransomware attack, you know that it's not anything that you want your business to have to go through again. However if your business doesn't have a detailed recovery plan, it may be a good idea to put one in place to be prepared should something like this happen.

When it comes to Mike Young Productions, it's hard to tell who's having the most fun: the studio's millions of young fans around the world or the studio's allegedly grown-up creators and producers which now number over 100.
Meet Mike and Liz Young, founders of one of the most successful and prolific independent animation studios in the world. In an 18,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art digital facility, they produce a host of beloved programs, known as much for their intelligence and wit as their superb quality. It's a roster any studio would envy – six current TV hits on multiple networks; ToddWorld on TLC and Discovery Kids; Jakers! The Adventures of Piggley Winks for PBS KIDS and Scholastic's Clifford the Big Red Dog and Clifford's Puppy Days also for PBS KIDS and Cartoon Network's He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. The studio's newest smash series, Pet Alien, debuted on Cartoon Network in January 2005.
Mike says that writing for children today is more challenging and exciting than ever. "Kids today are massively literate. Their sophistication allows us to create humor that works on multiple levels and extends across all age groups."
The story of how Mike and Liz began is the stuff of animation legend. It was in their native Wales back in 1978 when they were having a bit of a problem with their then four-year old son Richard, who was afraid of the dark. To give his son a sense of security, Mike invented a crime-fighting teddy bear named Super Ted, and told him stories about Ted every night. One day, some weeks later, Richard's kindergarten teacher asked Mike where she could obtain that marvelous book Richard keeps talking about. The light bulb went on. Cut to Mike writing frantically, pitching dozens of publishers, and finally, having Super Ted published. What resulted was a cultural phenomenon.
SuperTed and his adventures soon became popular, not only in Young's own household, but in millions of homes throughout the UK and Europe. It worked out pretty well for Richard, too. Today, he's head of post-production for the studio.
Shortly after Disney bought the rights to SuperTed, the Young's moved their family and business to Los Angeles where they founded Mike Young Productions. That was about 13 years ago. Today, in addition to their Los Angeles studio, they also have an international production and distribution office in Cardiff, Wales, and a new business unit, Taffy Entertainment, dedicated to the rights management and worldwide distribution of the studio's as well as acquired properties.
Mike takes special pride in the loving care that goes into every TV program they produce, and extends to all facets of their business. "We personally answer every single letter that children write us," Mike beams. "With our website (www.mikeyoungproductions.com) getting over a million hits a day, it's no small feat. But we love it!"
Mike and Liz have been First Entertainment members for about 3 years. Mike tells us, "We opened the account because we wanted a separate account for business. Of course, now our personal accounts are there as well. They understand the industry and how we function, which makes everything, even the simple act of depositing a check, a lot easier. I couldn't imagine doing our banking anywhere else." (For someone with Mike's imagination to say that, it's quite a compliment.)
What does the future hold for this remarkable studio? "Unfettered forms of distribution, like mobile, wireless and the Internet, will allow us to personalize our programming like never before," Mike explains, "And the results will be pure magic."
We'll be watching. Us, and millions of kids.

Frank Talk About Social Security
Frank talk about Social Security I just hung up, after being on hold for over an hour, from the Social Security office. They may need to recalculate my benefits as I am not receiving the full amount I am entitled to. FDR signed the Social Security Act in 1935. One of the benefits was to ward off being penniless when, at that time, workers were forced to retire no later than, at the age of 65. The monies, were financed by a payroll tax on workers' wages, half directly as a payroll tax from them, and half paid by the […]Continue reading

So What You're Exercising……Have You Written Anything?
A few months back I joined a gym. I have been exercising faithfully ever since. (Lost 13 lbs. so far) I feel like I have accomplished a major goal. But have I written anything?
The answer is "No". The reason: I don't have time. How can I fit writing into an already full day? I work full-time then it's straight to the gym. Once I get home, I have to shower, check on the kids and check in with the hubby. Before I know it, it's time to go to bed to start the day all over again.
Every day I plan to get some writing done. Every day I fail. I need help to get my life in order. The only time I can think of is setting the alarm an hour early. It is the way I got my first draft done. Maybe it's time to try that route again.
How do you find the time to write? Any suggestions for a stressed out writer?

The Universe Wants Me to Be Fat
I admit it. I am overweight. I've been carrying the extra pounds for several years now. I told myself I was happy. I told myself I was content shopping in Lane Bryant. (Have you been in there? They have really stylish fashions.) I told myself and anyone that asked that people had to accept me the way that I am. More of me to love. And I was content. Until I wasn't.
January 2013 I did some self reflecting and decided I wanted a healthier me. A thinner me. I vowed to lose at least 75 lbs. before an upcoming trip to Las Vegas. I joined a gym and made modifications to my eating. I was on the way. (Have you heard of Zumba? This activity is amazing. Exercise that is fun! Who knew?)
Three weeks in and everything is going well. I have my exercise and eating routine down. I lost five pounds. 5. Pounds. Clothes are a little looser. I have more energy.
And then tragedy struck.
It started with a cough. The cough was followed by muscle aches, nasal congestion, a headache and nausea. That's right. The flu attacked. I haven't had the flu in over six years and it picks now to try and throw off my new-found lifestyle changes. Curses to the universe! Or the coughing co-worker. One of them is to blame for my misery.
I've been out of it for the past five days. But I have learned some things during this episode The human body makes a ton of mucus and can spew it from every orifice on the body. Thank God for health insurance. There are some things worst then death. And I really miss exercising.
Take that cruel universe. You may have wanted me to give in and wallow in my out of shapeness (new word alert). But I won't. Not as long as that gym debits those monthly dues out of my account. I have 70 more pounds to lose. Vegas is waiting for the new and improved me to show up.
What about you? Anyone made any life style changes this year and find the universe working against them?

Karissa C. Baker
M.A.T., University of St. Thomas
Upon graduating from college, Karissa Baker was one of the early participants in the Teach for America program, working with seventh and eighth grade math and science students in Manhattan. "I realized that as a teacher I could do something every day that impacted the lives of others," she says. Since 1999, she has continued to do just that at SPA, teaching ninth grade Earth science and 12th grade physics and receiving grants to develop curriculum for Harkness discussions and the use of laptop computers. "I enjoy seeing how much students grow as people and learners over the course of their four years in high school. It is dramatic and amazing!" she says. She particularly prizes one-on-one interaction with students. "SPA gives students and teachers time in their schedules to meet individually, which is a gift that most schools do not have to the degree that we do," she says. As an undergraduate, Ms. Baker studied geology and earned a B.A. from Carleton College, followed by an M.A.T. from the University of St. Thomas. She is a member of the National Science Teachers Association and the Minnesota Science Teachers Association. A mother of a young son and daughter, Baker cherishes time with her family.

I am considering publishing some blog recap posts on a fairly regularly interval. The purpose of these would be to highlight some of my recent posts. Currently, I feel like doing one of these every two weeks might work out well, but I might decide to extend that period to a month depending on how active I am on the blog. This post will feature content from any time in October, since I haven't done any of these before.
As for the blog in general, this October has been by far my most popular month ever (and my most active month writing). I've had significantly more visitors and views than any other month. Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to view my content! Maybe some day I'll come up with a concrete purpose or a set posting scheduling for my blog to celebrate (but what fun would that be?). I can't make any promises on how active I will be on the blog in the future, but I certainly plan on doing more writing when I get the chance. I have a long list of topics I still want to write about at some point, so lack of ideas will not hold me back at least.
Below are some of the posts I wanted to highlight for the month of October.
Who are the "True Gamers"?: Inspired by my reaction to a GamerGate article written by Chris Kluwe, my thoughts on people who see themselves as the only real gamers (or gaming elite) due to the games they play or their attitude towards gaming
Dangerously Personal Beginnings and Endings: Some of my reactions to an interesting and emotional weekend where I attended a funeral for my Grandparents and a gender reveal party for my friend's baby
Mosaic Project Update: An update of my current progress on my second ever mosaic art project
What's my Favorite 2014 MMO so Far?: A short recap of the MMOs I have played thus far for my MMO Search 2014 posts, and what my current favorites have been so far
So, there we have it, my first recap post! Please feel free to leave any comments about any of these posts below, and as always thank you for reading!

The thriving film industry in Afghanistan is a well kept secret. A little know fact in a country famous for war is the existence of a vital film legacy that has existed since the 1950s. Funded by aid dollars, but controlled by the Afghan artists who helmed it, Afghan Film, the country's public film production company, was in the years preceding the Soviet invasion, a hub of central Asian film production.
The archived films reveal a place of culture, politics, a sophisticated middle class and a keen sense of humor. The visuals created since then document a place pulled between the forces of modernity and tradition, and shine a light on the changing milieu that Muslims have faced over the past 60 years.
All donations for the production and distribution of Forbidden Reel are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law.

The filmmakers are looking to raise funds for direct funding to the Afghan Archives so that the Afghans can purchase a digital film scanner.

But did you know that Julie grew up on a country farm in Rada, West Virginia, and did not attend her high school prom because the family was too poor to afford a formal dress for her to wear?
"We lived way out in the country," recalled Julie. "We had no electricity until I was age 13. We drew our water from a well, ate food from a garden we grew ourselves. We walked a half-mile in the snow to catch the school bus. It was a hard life, but it certainly gave us a strong work ethic."
Today, Julie's three brothers and sister still live in Rada. "They're very happy living there," said Julie. "I was the only one who escaped."
After graduating from high school (class of 1957), Julie got a job as a waitress at Mary's Restaurant. "I was desperate to make money so I could buy some clothes and get a job in D.C., where my aunt was living," she said. "Then, a handsome Marine walked in and we eventually got married."
In 1958, they moved to San Diego where her husband worked as a drill instructor at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot. "I remember when Mission Valley was nothing more than grazing fields for cattle," she said. Her husband also served at Camp Pendleton, Okinawa, Japan, and Vietnam. They were married for 21 years before he passed away from a heart attack. They had two daughters, one daughter currently lives in Ventura and another in Texas.
Julie worked for 24 years for Pacific Bell, retiring in 1991 as a maintenance administrator. She began her real estate career on a part-time basis in 1984, and has worked at real estate full-time since 1991. One of her clients while she was at Pacific Bell was Steve Wilson, who also worked for Pacific Bell at the time. Today, Steve is an active PSAR member who works with Berkshire Hathaway Home Services California Properties in La Mesa. "The home I sold to Steve and his wife Lisa they still live in today," said Julie.
While working at Pacific Bell in La Mesa, Julie met Bill Fox who worked for Julie's boss. Julie's job included reviewing confidential reports from Bill and his peers. "My friends said to go-ahead and have coffee with Mr. Fox but I was very hesitant because it was clearly a conflict of interest," said Julie. "Eventually, Bill had a private meeting with my boss and told him that we were dating. So, I transferred to the Santee office and got married to Bill." They were married for 22 years before he passed away in 2002 after a 10-year battle with cancer.
Julie is a breast cancer survivor. She was diagnosed in June 2013 and underwent a double mastectomy. "After my surgery, when I returned to my first Rally and Ride meeting, the people here at the Association hung a giant banner that said `Welcome Back Julie.' They'll never know how much that meant to me. My real estate friends are so absolutely awesome. We really care about each other. That's what makes PSAR so special."
A La Mesa resident, Julie works with the Keller Williams office in La Mesa, and has won several sales awards for top production. "It's a very rewarding, especially when we can help first-time buyers. Many of my clients have become my very closest friends," she said.

Although daily briefings with White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer occasionally end in fireworks, the Naval Reserve officer has earned a reputation for thinking on his feet and for running a tight ship.
Gronkowski jokingly asked Spicer whether he needed any help.
"I think I got this, but thank you", Spicer responded.
"Since Bob bought the Patriots in 1994, they've won more division titles, conference championships, and super bowl wins than any other team".
The White House is aware of "potential negative impacts" from a review ordered by Trump of whether lifting sanctions through the Iran nuclear deal was in USA national security interests, his spokesman says.
Trump took the opportunity to criticize television commentators, saying during the Super Bowl, "The pundits - good old pundits - boy, they're wrong a lot, aren't they?"
Kraft presented Trump with a personalized jersey and Belichick gave Trump a personalized helmet.
The Patriots visited the White House to celebrate their latest Super Bowl victory on Wednesday - but the event was a bit deflated without the team's biggest star.
The president, who has spoken about his relationship with Brady in the past, did not mention him during his speech.More news: Neil Gorsuch confirmed by Senate as Supreme Court justice
Bill Belichick, Robert Kraft, and Brady have all admitted to being friends with Trump, so the Patriots feeling the need to combat the photo isn't a surprise.
A team spokesman said the Patriots were aware of the reports of Hernandez's death but the club wasn't expected to comment.
"He's becoming a pretty famous guy for winning, I'll tell you that", Trump said of Kraft, who was one of several National Football League team owners to donate $1 million to his inaugural committee.
After Gronkowski left the room, Spicer - who is a Patriots fan - laughed for a moment before regaining his composure.
While other players had suggested political reasons for not attending, quarterback Tom Brady, the game's most valuable player, said family matters kept him away.
"You pulled off the greatest Superbowl comeback of all time", Mr. Trump told the players.
His decision also comes hours after former teammate Aaron Hernandez, who was serving a life sentence for first-degree murder, was found hanged in his jail cell.
Sources tell Reuters a Russian government think tank controlled by Vladimir Putin developed a plan to swing the 2016 USA presidential election to Trump and undermine voters' faith in the American electoral system. People know how I feel about it.

With the frigid cold and snow blowing around, I realize it may be an odd time to think about the racing season. But in Hendricks County, which has quickly become a motor sports destination, there really is not much of an offseason for the men and women in the NHRA who bring us those high-speed thrills and chills. So, on a cold, blistery January afternoon, I found myself last week in Brownsburg, Ind., inside the Midwest Headquarters of John Force Racing as they made a big announcement for the 2012 NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series season. John Force Racing is adding a new team with a new sponsor to his stable this year, but with a familiar name behind the wheel. His youngest daughter, Courtney Force, 23, will officially move into the professional ranks in a machine sponsored by radio-controlled car maker, Traxxas, and compete against her old man; teammates, Mike Neff and Robert Hight; and the rest of the stars in the Funny Car division. "I told my dad, 'I'm ready to beat up on the boys, especially him,'" Courtney said while standing in front of her new mostly black car with a smattering of red, white and blue mixed in. After holding a press conference in California the week before, the Force family wanted to make sure they did something similar in Brownsburg, their second home. "We love it here in Indiana," John Force said. "That is why I keep pumping millions into the economy and continue to add square footage to our facility. We want this place to grow." John Force also shared with me how Courtney's addition to his team and the interest from one of his other daughters, Brittany, has re-fueled his fire after a down year for the 15-time champion. Brittany will test a Top Fuel Dragster for John Force Racing, which was also unveiled to the public for the first time during the press conference in Brownsburg last week. For those of you like me who aren't as drag racing savvy, the Top Fuel Dragsters are probably the most recognizable in the series with the two large back wheels and long nose. Brittany Force explains the test car in the video below: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YTsqy1HKik&list=UU8x_r855M4mdwKchMOG5J1w&index=1&feature=plcp[/youtube] If this year's testing leads to a future Force entry in the Top Fuel Dragster division, it will be the first time Force's team has ventured outside of Funny Car. I must admit it was amazing last week to be inside John Force Racing's Brownsburg shop full of semi haulers, race cars and crew members who were as busy as ever getting ready for the season's first race in Pomona in early February. If you've never been, you really need to head to Brownsburg to check out it and the many other race teams who have shops in town. Some of them offer tours and John Force even has a gift shop attached called John Force RaceStation that is open Wednesday through Saturday. These shops are a must see for any race fan. Then, within minutes, you can complete your trip with a visit to the legendary Indianapolis Motor Speedway in nearby Speedway, Ind. Yes, race season is just around the corner. Lucas Oil Raceway is expected to announce its season schedule soon, and when they do, we will cover it here on All Access Hendricks County. Before you know it, all of the heavy hitters will be back at Lucas Oil Raceway for the 2012 Mac Tools U.S. Nationals on Labor Day weekend. And we here at the Hendricks County Convention and Visitors Bureau can't wait.

This year could provide a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make any large gifts to loved ones, according to many estate planning lawyers. They key point: Gift taxes are at their lowest point this year than at any time since the Great Depression, and they're scheduled to jump next year. For gifts made in 2009, the highest tax rate was 45 percent. This year, the top gift tax rate is at 35 percent -- and next year it will rise to 55 percent.
Unfortunately, many people still reeling from the economic downturn are reluctant to make gifts this year, which could cost them or their heirs a lot in extra taxes.
"Many advisers don't want to suggest to a client that they pay a big tax bill before they have to. They like to pretend they can use their magic to minimize taxes, but that never works," said estate planning attorney David Handler of Kirkland & Ellis in Chicago in a recent interview with Reuters.
This year is also unusual in that certain penalties were reduced for investors who convert traditional IRAs to Roth IRAs. Although the investor does have to pay taxes on the funds at the time of the conversion, the overall tax savings can be substantial for many people. Handler hopes their experience with the IRA conversion will make it easier to see the benefits of scheduling large gifts during fiscal year 2010.
"They're paying taxes now to save taxes in the future. It's the same concept," he told Reuters.
2010 Gift Tax Window Could Offer Substantial Benefits
"Everyone is scared they're going to run out of money," said Deerfield, Illinois, financial planner Sue Stevens in the Reuters report. "But I tell them that, with rates going up, this is a pivotal year for tax planning and we need to be thinking of every opportunity."
Every year, each individual is allowed to make gifts of $13,000 or less to friends and loved ones without tax. (Although, if you give more than $1 million of otherwise taxable gifts during your lifetime, however, you could still owe tax.)
Since the federal gift tax is paid by the person giving the gift, choosing to make a gift instead of leaving the same amount of money in your will allows your beneficiary to receive the entire amount you intend to give. If the gift tax is lower than the estate tax, less taxes overall are paid.
When thinking about the difference, keep in mind that even though gift and estate tax rates are often the same for the same year, you're talking about events in different years. For example, if you give a gift in 2010 and end up having to pay a 35 percent tax on a portion of it, that's still much lower than the 55 percent estate tax that would be owed if you left the same amount as a bequest and died in 2011.
While the economic downturn can make it hard even to consider writing a large check to Uncle Sam, if you plan to transfer the assets at some point, doing so as a gift this year could be a historic opportunity. The historic tax savings could make your gift much more impactful.

MOUNT VERNON, N.Y. -- Mayor Richard Thomas joined dozens of people Saturday who rallied in Mount Vernon to call for better gun-control laws in the wake of deadly shootings in Orlando, Fla., and closer to home, according to a News 12 report.
Carrying signs calling for a stop to the violence, marchers are asking leaders to do more to curb shootings. "Stop the shooting; stop the guns," protesters chanted, News 12 says.

This week it's time to start looking at food labels closely. There is a major difference between good and bad fats. Good fats, like Omega-3s for example, are vital for our bodies to function properly. It's important to eat good fats daily (ie: avocados, nuts, olive oil, flaxseed oil, walnut oil, and salmon to name a few). However, trans fats can be detrimental to our health. Companies who produce highly processed foods like to use trans fat because it makes food last longer on the shelf, and it's a taste that humans seem to really enjoy.
Unfortunately, consumption of trans fats can cause many serious health issues:
-Increased risk of heart disease, cancer, and Alzheimer's
-Lowering of our good cholesterol
-Excretion of bile acids suppressed
-Exaggerated deficiency of good fats in the body
-Competition for fat uptake (the good fats may not win here!)
According to Precision Nutrition, "Even a single meal with a high "bad fat" content can diminish blood vessel function and elasticity!" Therefore, this week we will not consume one of the greatest trans fat contributors, FAST FOOD! I'm talking about the burgers, fries, fried chicken sandwiches, etc. You can do pretty well with a fast food meal though; it's just about what you choose. Until this past Thursday, I had been living in a hotel with no kitchen the last two months, and Chick-Fil-A became a lunch staple for me. That sounds bad, but I simply ordered the Chargrilled Chicken Sandwich, removed the bread, and wrapped the chicken breast in lettuce. If you're forced to swing through a drive through this week, think about what healthy choices you can make (or ask me if you don't know!!). BEWARE: Fast food salads can be almost as bad as a fried meal once you add the dressing. Read the salad dressing labels carefully and always opt for olive oil and/or vinegar whenever possible!
Fast food is not the only trans fat culprit. Many packaged cereals and cereal bars, margarine or fake butter spreads, packaged cake/pancake mixes, soups, cookies, candies, dips, toppings, frozen foods, and baked goods all contain trans fat. Read your labels this week to identify the perpetrators in your home. We are only focusing on fast food in our challenge, but you can try to avoid trans fat across the board.
Just like last week, if exercise isn't already part of your daily routine, I'm giving you SIX new exercises to add to your tool box. Repeat them 3-5 times each day. You can complete these 3-5 rounds all at once, or you can break it up throughout the day. Feel free to mix and match with last week's routine too! See my video for a detailed explanation of how to safely perform each exercise. Let me know how you're feeling throughout the week!
-50 Squat Pulses
-10 Plank to Pushup (5 right, 5 left)
-30 second V-Sit
-20 Jumping Lunges (or Front Lunges or Reverse Lunges)
-15 each side Bridge with Leg Lifts
-20 Mountain Climbers
I will also be posting a warm-up and stretching video over the next few weeks, so stay tuned!

Imran appeals to Benazir, Fazlur to play active role in restoring democracyDecember 1st, 2007 - 2:54 pm ICT by admin
Lahore, Dec 1 (ANI): Cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan has appealed to former premier Benazir Bhutto and Jamaat-e-Ullema Islam (JUI) leader Maulana Fazl-ur-Rahman to play an active role in restoring democracy in Pakistan.
At this crucial juncture, she (Benazir) should lead the opposition, Imran asserted.
Khan said the boycott call given by the opposition All Party Democratic Movement (APDM) has a single point agenda of restoring judiciary to pre-emergency status.
Several hundred students gathered at Khans office for a convention for restoring the judiciarys independence and the lifting of the emergency.
Without an independent judiciary, this country has no future, The News quoted Khan, as saying.
I do not want students to politicise themselves, he added.
For any movement to succeed, the participation of students is vital, Khan said. (ANI)

Mar 06 Meet Joe, Our New Visual Strategist
We couldn't be more stoked to introduce you to Joe Kane, our new visual strategist. Joe considers himself a dreamer and a builder, with a passion for ideation, prototyping, and designing.
You have earned a dual degree – a Master of Science in Industrial Design from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, and an MBA from the Peter F. Drucker School of Management in Claremont, California. Tell us more about why you chose to pursue this unique experience, and how it has influenced your career trajectory.
I only discovered the world of Industrial Design a few years ago. It was clearly the discipline I had been searching for, and I quickly became enamored with designing at the intersection of business, technology, and human need. I came from a technology background, and the ID program at Art Center gave me the human-centered design tools. The MBA from Drucker rounded out my education by providing the business strategy knowledge and vocabulary. Being able to tap into those three wells of knowledge opens a lot of doors into a wide range of industries.
We heard rumors that you and your classmates spent entire nights in the workshop. Is that true? What kind of things were you building that required this level of commitment?
There were several times where I would have multiple all-nighters in a single week. Everything required that level of commitment, but there were a few projects in particular that really tested our metal. One was a full-scale furniture prototype for Starbucks. Another was a clay model of a boat hull. There were ten other students in my cohort, and we would all be in the shop working overnight. There was a sense of friendly competition between all of us that served as a massive source of motivation during those crunch times. It made it bearable, and a lot more fun.
What was one of the most exciting projects you have ever worked on?
One of our projects in school was designing a rubber-band-powered RC car with two other students. We designed and built all the parts from scratch and ended up with a really sleek and fast final car.
Tell us a little bit more about your previous work experience, and how it influenced who you are today.
Before returning to grad school I spent 5 years working as a Visualization Artist at an engineering firm. My primary role was producing 3D models and photorealistic renderings of architectural concepts. It provided me with the opportunity become proficient in 3D and 2D design software that I still use heavily today. The company specialized in mechanization of large structures, so I learned a lot about mechanical and structural engineering along the way as well.
When you think about the state of innovation in this country, or maybe the world, what excites you most? Where do you see untapped opportunities in the industries that we serve, such as healthcare, retail or education?
I was born in 1984 so I feel like the internet and I grew up together in a way. We now have this amazing platform for communication between people and data. Just when it seems like the internet has been used in every way possible, someone finds a new innovative way of leveraging its potential. The disruption it can cause is fascinating. I believe the healthcare industry needs to become more comfortable with the idea of sharing data so we can take a more holistic approach to improving health. I think the advent of wearable devices is a big step in that direction.
Tell us a bit more about your role here, and what you are hoping to bring to Rêve and our clients.
My primary role is to visually represent consumer-centric solutions that we develop to address our clients' needs. My mix of business, tech, and design educations allow me to more thoroughly understand the business needs of the client and then represent the solutions that we co-create with them in a compelling way that helps them tell a story to other stakeholders in their organization.
What do you like to do outside of work?
I like to be outdoors as much as possible. I do a lot of fishing year round and I hike around the river valley with my dog, Waldo. I also play a few different instruments to pass the time, and I watch way too many movies.

In this article we will discuss:
Growing marijuana in Kansas is not as scary as you'd think. Kansas is one of the few states that continues to prohibit all forms of marijuana, so it would make sense that it probably wouldn't be a good place to grow. Well, that isn't exactly true. Growing cannabis in Kansas is one of the least likely marijuana charges you'd face there. That is, unless, you were growing weed for the entire neighborhood.
This is because growing weed in Kansas is only a felony if you have 4 or more plants. For most people, a couple of plants is more than enough to have a good time. If your garden is kept small enough, then there isn't a law saying you've done something wrong.
Kansas laws
Before you start celebrating Kansas's lenient laws, Iet me explain that growing weed in Kansas is not that simple either. While cops may overlook a couple plants, they can't overlook marijuana completely. It's probably not a good idea to roll up a joint of your fresh harvest and go walking through town. For now, keep the celebration to yourself. Let's wait it out until Kansas catches up with the rest of the country.
While you wait, you can kill some time by learning how to grow the strongest four plants possible. You could also learn about some creative things to do with your plant - like make oil. Because oil doesn't look like marijuana (unlike in a blunt) or smell like it does from a bong.
You could probably have a great time with your less than four plants while Kansas considers joining the rest of America. It's okay, your neighbor probably is too.
Possession of marijuana
The lawmakers in Kansas realized no one is perfect – or – they realized everyone smokes weed and decided to go easy on first-time offenders. I say this, because this is exactly what they did. In Kansas, those caught with marijuana the first time will have it almost as easy as those growing weed in Kansas. Possession of marijuana is only misdemeanor for first-timers. Those found guilty will likely be placed on probation. More about marijuana laws at norml.org
Marijauana tax
They know people are growing weed in Kansas. I can say this because Kansas created the marijuana tax. Yes, non-marijuana smoking Kansas is convinced that they are missing out on the very prosperous weed economy. See, proof again that they realized everyone smokes weed. So, naturally they wants some of the profits, even though they still have not legalized the sale.
According to the government you can pay the drug tax without getting in trouble for doing so. That is what any responsible consumer would do, right? Kansas charges $.40/gram of wet(live) plant and $.90/gram of dry plant.
They say their drug tax does not mean they condone marijuana, but that it is an acknowledgment that people are smoking it. Since they took the time to tax wet plants, I'd say they are growing it too.
I don't know about you, but I'm a lot less scared of growing weed in Kansas now.

Erectile Dysfunction (ED) Linked to Heart Disease
What is the number one killer in North America?
You guessed right – heart disease is.
Sadly, it has or will affect each and every one of us in some way. Many of the risk factors are preventable such as smoking, obesity, high cholesterol, lack of exercise, and a diet high in unhealthy fats.
You're probably already aware that healthy lifestyle habits can substantially reduce your risk of developing cardiovascular disease. However, perhaps this hasn't been enough of an incentive for you to choose salad over chicken wings or oats over bacon.
Gentlemen, let me give you another reason to put down your Quarter Pounder with Cheese.
High cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, and obesity reduce blood flow to the penis and cause erectile dysfunction.
That's right.
Your heart health directly affects your ability to perform in the bedroom.
If you're having difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection, this may be an early sign of a more serious health problem, such as atherosclerosis – the formation of plaque on the walls of the blood vessels. Overtime, the buildup of plaque reduces coronary blood flow and increases the risk of heart attack and stroke.
Interestingly, researchers found that erectile dysfunction in younger men may be an early warning sign of cardiovascular disease.
Fatty foods, smoking, and poor lifestyle behaviours not only increase a man's risk of developing cardiovascular conditions, it is a known fact that these poor habits may also hinder a man's ability to maintain an erection.
February is Heart Health Month – so let's review what to eat and which supplements to take to ensure healthy blood flow all around.
Heart Healthy Diet:
- Increase fibre-rich foods and aim to consume 30-40 grams of dietary fibre per day.
- Oats, quinoa, millet, peas, squash, figs, and apples are some examples of soluble fibre which help lower blood cholesterol levels.
- Millet
- Quinoa
- Barley
- Oats
- Prunes
- Unpeeled Apples
- Broccoli
- Dark Leafy Green Vegetables
- Peas
- Lentils
- Raw and Unsalted Walnuts/Pumpkin Seeds/Sunflower Seeds
- Fresh Berries
- Fresh Figs
- Pomegranate Juice
- Pears
- High Saturated Fats found in Meats and Cheeses
- Trans Fats
- Canned/Instant Soups
- Cold Cuts/Hot Dogs/Hamburgers
- Ham
- Salted Crackers
- Dill Pickles
- Sauerkraut
- Ketchup
- Dairy
- Lard
- Sugary Treats
- Refined Cereals
- White Bread
- Fried Foods
- Coffee
- Soft Drinks
- Alcohol
*The lists above are just partial lists.
Key Supplement to Take (as directed by your ND)
Omega-3 Fish Oils, such as Norwegian Gold Super Critical Omega by Renew Life.
Adequate intake of omega-3 fish oils is essential for cardiovascular health and can help in the treatment of erectile dysfunction. What I recommend to my patients?
1000 mg of omega-3 fatty acids per day, sustainably sourced from wild and unthreatened fish. These fish are naturally lower in environmental toxins such as mercury, PCBs and pesticides.
High quality fish oil should be further purified to meet or exceed international standards for purity, potency, and freshness.
I only recommend fish oils which have a 5-star IFOS rating
IFOS stands for the International Fish Oil Standards (IFOS) program and carries the strictest standards in the world.
It is the only true third party testing program for omega-3 fatty acids from fish oils.
Additionally, Kyolic Aged Garlic Extract may help.
It is naturally aged, organic, odorless garlic and is one of the most researched cardiovascular supplements in the world. It is Health Canada approved to reduce cholesterol and the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Unlike other garlic supplements, Kyolic is aged for 20 months, and as a result of this process, it contains the beneficial compound S-Allyl Cysteine (SAC).
SAC is responsible for the cholesterol lowering effects and all the other heart health benefits, including reducing arterial plaque buildup.
I'm a fan of evidence based medicine and there are over 7000 research papers on fish oils and over 650 on Kyolic.
If you're concerned about your performance in the bedroom, start hitting the gym regularly, reduce your stress levels by practicing yoga or breathing exercises, and follow the nutritional recommendations outlined above.
"Poor cardiovascular health is arguably the number one reason men get erectile dysfunction" says Mark Moyad, M.D., of the University of Michigan Medical Center.
Speak to a health care professional and take control of your heart health naturally.

Jason found this recipe a few weeks ago and we love it.

Last night I decided to try my had at making onigiri, rice balls, to go with dinner last night. I found a good sounding recipe on Recepiezaar. Now I understand why they sell the little triangle molds. It's really hard to mold them if your not familiar with making them. My hands kept drying up, causing the rice to stick to me. My rice balls ended up looking more like eggs, but they came out really good. I caught Jason getting up in the middle of the night to eat some more of them, so I know … [Read more...]

(PRWEB) September 21, 2016
"Alaska, Safe In Gods Arms": a descriptive and amazing journey into what was one of the last, true frontiers. "Alaska, Safe In Gods Arms" is the creation of published author, Joyce Tucker, gifted storyteller and dedicated writer.
When pressed for her inspiration in telling her story, Joyce shares, "I promised my sister, before she died of cancer, that I would write this book about my life and adventures in Alaska."
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Joyce Tucker's new book chronicles the author's extraordinary life and experiences as a young, white, married woman in Alaska.
Alaska in the 1960's was truly the Last Frontier. It had recently achieved statehood as the 49th U.S. state on January 3, 1959, about two years before Joyce arrived with her husband, an Alaskan Aleut.
The population at the time was mostly native Alaskans of different tribes such as Eskimo, Aleut, Tlingit, Alaskan Athabaskans and others. In the village where they lived the natives were part Aleut, Russian, Irish and Swede. The village in 1960 was a small, close-knit community of about 60 people. They were all related to each other in some way. When Joyce lived there she was the only white person from the lower 48th in the village.
These are entries from a diary she kept in a spiral-bound notebook. They are an account of her day-to-day life as a young married woman living in Alaska. Joyce hopes readers will see the hand of God working in her life, and the many times He was present, miraculously protecting her and delivering her from harm, both physically and spiritually.
View a synopsis of "Alaska, Safe In Gods Arms" on YouTube.
Consumers can purchase "Alaska, Safe In Gods Arms" at traditional brick & mortar bookstores, or online at Amazon.com, Apple iTunes store, Kobo or Barnes and Noble.

Evaluating competitive bids should be straightforward – but it rarely is. Many questions arise after bids close: Can we contact the bidders to clarify important points?
Purchasingb2b: July/August 2011
Evaluating competitive bids should be straightforward, at least in theory. Non-compliant bids are discarded and from the remainder, the purchaser can discern a clear winner based on compliance and the lowest cost. But as numerous buyers report, the situation often becomes muddled.
Once all the bids are in, purchasers may be tempted to collect more information from bidders before the contract is awarded. Typically, the purchaser will begin negotiating with a bidder or several bidders—but not all of them—before deciding on a winner.
As one of Purchasingb2b's experts pointed out, this is similar to stopping a horse race 10 yards from the finish line to say, let's negotiate the outcome of the race. We're going to negotiate with one, perhaps two jockeys, but we're not going to negotiate with everyone.
The motivation is usually financial. Purchasers try to save their organization money by getting the best possible deal. Another factor is misinformation. Often, procurement experts from the US speak at Canadian conferences. Some of these US-based instructors recommend collecting bids and then negotiating with all the bidders, in effect playing them off one another to get the best price. While buyers might see the value in this approach from a financial standpoint, they also wonder if the practice is legal.
In these cases, the parties negotiate on a request for proposals (RFP) that has closed and is irrevocable, and these negotiations can alter the original offer. The purchasing organization may say it wants more or less of something in the contract and a bidder will most likely agree, since doing so moves the contract closer to being secured.
But the purchaser's question is often, should we offer other bidders the same thing? Some may say, what's wrong with that? It's fair, provided the organization says up front its intentions.
Bidder shortlists
Using this logic, purchasers sometimes produce a shortlist of bids. The organization must treat all bidders the same, but inequality can arise. An organization might receive six bids. The evaluating committee or buyer then produces a shortlist of three bidders and says: we'll negotiate with you three. Let's see who gives us the best bid.
This increasingly common practice can raise concerns over fairness. A scenario such as this doesn't treat all the bidders equally, and can run close to the edge of legality. Many purchasers assume it's OK, provided the organization states in the RFP they plan to produce a shortlist.
One situation involved the Government of British Columbia. The government went to competition and said to bidders, here's the scope of work we're looking for. Several bids came back, but with one clear winner.
The purchaser involved in the bid process (in this case, not a professional purchaser, but a consulting engineer) was dissatisfied with the price of that bid. The purchaser then went to the second lowest bidder, but in secret. The court called that bid shopping and therefore unfair. The BC government tried to argue it was only negotiating, but the court disagreed.
The case raises a number of questions and uncertainties for purchasers, especially those who are new to the field and might not be fully acquainted with guidelines related to procurement ethics and legalities.
Those outside the procurement discipline, such as engineers and IT managers—who often lead or are involved with drafting RFPs and evaluating bids— might also require guidance on the issue.
The situation raises several concerns, so Purchasingb2b checked with legal expert Denis Chamberland to get some perspective. Read his response on common questions related to post-bid negotiations below.
by Denis Chamberland
Evaluating competitive bids should be straightforward – but it rarely is. Many questions arise after bids close: Can we contact the bidders to clarify important points? Can we change or fine-tune the evaluation criteria because some things have become clear since issuing the bid call document? Can we ask the bidders to submit a new price if all of the bids received are over budget? The ultimate question is "how much flexibility do we have, legally, to negotiate or amend the bid call document after the closing of the bids?"
The question traces its origins to the Supreme Court of Canada's decisions in R. (Ont.) v Ron Engineering and Construction (Eastern) Ltd., which hailed the Contract A/Contract B analysis, and M.J.B. Enterprises Ltd. v. Defence Construction, where the court explained that the bidding process substitutes competition for negotiation. Insofar as the substantive contract to be signed is fully attached to the bid call document, the evaluation process truly should be fairly straightforward. But the substantive contract ('Contract B' in the language of the courts) is rarely attached in procurement processes where the thing to be acquired or the process itself have yet to become commoditized (predictable, known).
The answer to the ultimate question should be: subject to certain key principles to be discussed below, we have as much flexibility as can be anticipated upfront and is clearly articulated in the bid call document. It is important to recognize that the rigid procurement construct that the courts have historically dissected has revolved around the fact that the bid call documents under analysis typically failed to plan for a flexible post-closing experience, and when they did, the principles of procedural fairness were often not given sufficient attention.
It is perfectly possible to create a flexible yet legally defensible procurement process after bid closing. What can be done after bid closing depends on a variety of considerations, most importantly, the details of the bid call document in question, the principles stemming from the many court decisions and the applicable trade agreements. With that in mind, I comment below on each of the questions posed by the case study.
1) Is it acceptable to contact bidders after the competition has closed?
It depends what the bid call document says, and if it's expressly anticipated; it's important how the contact is made. If the bid call document allows the buyer to contact bidders for the purpose of clarifying their bids, there is no harm in contacting bidders for this purpose, provided the purchaser ensures the contact does not become an opportunity for bid repair or bid enhancement.
2) What information is suitable to collect from bidders during these conversations?
What conversations? Bid clarification should be conducted in writing. Any live contact with bidders after bid closing should be anticipated in the bid call document and it should be heavily scripted to avoid any spontaneous exchange of ideas, which can easily lead to bid repair or bid enhancement.
3) Should the purchaser share information gathered from the dialogue with other bidders?
No "dialogue" with any bidder—see question two's answer above.
4) Is it okay to change the offer before contract award?
It's generally not OK to change requirements set out in the bid call document post closing, but it can happen, as it did in the 2000 Ontario decision in Cable Assembly Systems Ltd v. Dufferin-Peel Roman Catholic Separate School Board. In Cable Assembly, the bid call document was interpreted as allowing the board to negotiate on the back end since all bids received exceeded the board's budget. The right to negotiate was based on the fact that the bid call document authorized it for budgetary reasons. It was probably also important that the bid prices had not been made public.
5) When might these conversations with bidders before contract award be deemed as bid shopping?
There should be no "conversations" or "dialogue" between the purchaser and the bidders, but if the purchaser begins to play the bidders off against each other in trying to get a lower price, there is good chance that this will be considered bid shopping. The courts have recently defined "bid shopping" extremely broadly, such that any negotiations post closing (assuming they are permitted by the bid call document) should be handled with great care. If there are going to be negotiations, these should have been anticipated explicitly in the bid call document. It can happen that negotiations were not anticipated in the bid call document –as was the case in Cable Assembly, just mentioned – but a reservation of right in the bid call document should be available to support such negotiations. It's generally the case that any negotiation on the back end, if supported by the language of the bid call document, should be consistent with the evaluation criteria set out in the bid call document. So, reservations of right should not be relied on to launch into a brand new procurement process that is legally unrelated to the initial evaluation methodology.
6) What should buyers do when none of the bids received are within budget for the project?
It depends what the bid call document says, and if it's expressly anticipated; how the contact is made is important. For example, if the bid call document allows the buyer to contact bidders for the purpose of clarifying their bids, there is no harm in contacting bidders for this purpose, provided the purchaser ensures the contact does not become an opportunity for bid repair or bid enhancement.
7) Often, buyers receive bids from vendors they have dealt with for years. In these cases, it might seem intuitive to the buyer to circle back to a familiar bidder to get their help reshaping the offer before contract award. What best practices would the legal community recommend?
Where there's a close commercial relationship between purchaser and supplier, the best thing is to set up a protocol well before issuing the bid call document, directing the purchaser's personnel not to provide details about the upcoming bid call to that supplier's staff. Sharing any information potentially creates an uneven field in favour of that supplier. As soon as it becomes known a bid call may be issued, the purchaser must take steps to ensure all potential suppliers are treated the same, and measures enacted to ensure equal treatment continues until the end of the procuremnt process. A best practice in procurement is to know the rules well, and to ensure they are followed. b2b

The Green Hornets cheerleading program produced a string of successful performances at the 12U, 8U and 6U levels this fall.
Green Hornets Cheerleaders Cap Successful Fall Season
It was a successful fall season for the Green Hornets cheerleading program.
Three Green Hornets cheerleading squads — the 12U/10U, 8U and 6U teams — competed at various competitions throughout the season, each turning in multiple strong performances.
The 12U/10U team of Shea Cassidy, Abigail Chase, Mackenzie Clark, Kaelin Cservek, Paige Davis, Savannah Gibson, Kaylie Greenleaf, Sophia Leon, Maddie McGurk, Adriana Merlini, Riley Morris, Kelly Moy, Kate Roberts, Sarah Rowland and Jessica Smith, coached by April Morris, Catherine Myers, Maryellen Myers and Brooke Carson, produced a pair of first-place wins. On October 28, the team took first place at the Maryland Halloween Classic and also received the honorable Grand Champion Award for the highest score in their division. On November 5, at the larger and highly competitive Retro Rock competition, the team took first place once again.
Carson and Maryellen Myers are Severna Park High School seniors and former Green Hornet cheerleaders who volunteer their time after high school practice to help develop the skills of the younger athletes on the 12U/10U squad.
The 8U team of Megan Dottellis, Kayla Camacho, Bella Dameron, Jules Dameron, Lilly Hittle, Gabriella James, Allison Moran, Erin O'Connor, Jordyn Urban and Brooklyn Weber placed second at the Maryland Halloween Classic and third at the Retro Rock. Green Hornets cheerleading commissioner Wendy Greenleaf praised 8U coaches Tyeler Clapp and Muntana Hittle as "extremely devoted," adding Clapp is a former Green Hornets and All-Star Level 4 cheerleader "whose talent has been an asset to the Green Hornets cheer program."
The 6U team of Jessy Bertha, Alice Collins, Brynne Greenleaf, Skylar Greenleaf, Gretchen Keefer, Katherine Kelly, Kaylee Kendle, Sophia Lebowitz, Brooke Sabban and Lyla Stohler improved upon its second-place finish at the Maryland Halloween Classic to take first place at the Retro Rock competition.
"Coaches Carol Collins, Candice Sabban and Mary Seeley did an amazing job of coaching these itty bitty athletes," Greenleaf said of the 6U coaches. "Mary is an SPHS senior who shared her skills and inspired the squad. Carol created the perfect blend of fun and structured practices that resulted not only in a successful season but a love for the sport in our newest cheerleaders."
Greenleaf said the entire fall season was one of growth and success for the program's hardworking athletes.
"It's been wonderful to see all of our athletes develop their skills and improve with each week," she said. "Our select squad continues to aim high as we enter our winter season."
