Similarities between DNA repair systems of bacteria, humans greater than thoughtDecember 11th, 2010 - 6:04 pm ICT by ANI
Washington, Dec 11 (ANI): A new study has revealed that there are greater similarities between the DNA repair systems of bacteria and humans than previously thought.
The University of Bristol researchers have discovered how a network of repair proteins enables bacteria to prioritise the repair of the most heavily used regions of the DNA molecules that carry the instructions necessary for living cells to function.
When the chemical "letters" in a cell's DNA book of instructions are damaged the instructions become difficult to read and the cell may not function properly.
Because it is impossible to avoid DNA damage, cells have evolved many mechanisms for repairing their damaged genomes. Like council crews repairing damaged roads these DNA repair mechanisms employ individuals with different specialities: sometimes all that is needed is a small patch on the DNA, like filling in a pothole, other times large sections of the DNA need to be removed entirely and replaced.
The repair systems need molecular machines that can detect the DNA damage in the first place, machines that can cut away the damaged DNA, and machines that can finish the repair by building new undamaged DNA.
All of these molecular machines must work together in an organised fashion to carry out these very intricate repairs, and so they also require machines that take the part of foreman and co-ordinate the work of the others.
When DNA is heavily damaged, cells from humans to bacteria ensure the sections that are being read at that moment (in a process called transcription) are repaired before sections that aren't being read.
A team led by Nigel Savery University of Bristol has purified each of the many individual components of this "transcription-coupled" DNA repair pathway from the bacterium Escherichia coli and rebuilt the system in a test-tube.
The team found that different proteins take responsibility for spotting damage in different situations, and explained how one of the central machines is able to turn itself off when it is not working, in order to decrease the "fuel consumption" of the system.
The findings were published in Molecular Cell. (ANI)

Which was a major disappointment given the last few days at work.
I had a dinner party to attend in my friend's honor. So I spent some time prettying myself up for a night out.
I readied
I ironed.
I mopped.
And I took care of a sick Dad2Amara.
And while I accept responsibility for my motherly duties, I'm ready for a day at work. Away from the vacuum.
I have a new boss. Yet I'd rather be at work than at home right now.
It doesn't help that we're still living out of boxes because the Grey House still isn't ready.
And that means still no Internet or cable.
So I'm getting just a bit testy.
At least there's cable at work.

Ardian Syaf is an Indonesian comic book artist. He has worked for DC Comics, Marvel Comics, and Dynamite Entertainment.
Syaf was born in Tulungagung, East Java, Indonesia. He first developed the desire to draw comics in his youth, after his father bought him his first comic.
He embarked upon a career as a professional comics artist in 2003, deciding that leaving his interest in drawing comics and working in a conventional job was not something he was willing to do.
Syaf started his career in 2007 with Dabel Brothers Publishing, illustrating The Dresden Files for 11 issues.
At one point Syaf met an Irish screenwriter named Catie through Dabel Brothers, through which began to get work with Marvel Comics, his earliest book assignments involving the sharing of penciling duties with other artists, such as Jorge Molina on X-Men: Manifest Destiny: Nightcrawler #1 (May 2009), and Leonard Kirk on Captain Britain and MI13 #13 and 14 (July, August 2009).
His earliest work for DC Comics was "The Origin of Congorilla" a backup story written by Len Wein that appeared in Justice League: Cry for Justice #1 (September 2009). He shared the art duties on Justice League of America (Vol. 2) #34 (August 2009) with Eddy Barrows, but its quality was decried by critics.
In 2009, he signed a two-year exclusivity contract with DC. That contract ended in September 2011, though he indicated that it would be renewed, and that he would be drawing the Batgirl series as part of the company's 2011 reboot of its books, The New 52. Syaf drew the eight of that series' first nine issues, receiving generally positive reviews from critics.
When asked in a 2011 interview what projects he would like to work on, Syaf responded that he would like to draw Wolverine, as that is a character that he adores. He also stated that he would like to do a Tomb Raider story set in Indonesia, which would involve the superstitious beliefs of his home country.
Syaf is known to engage in the practice of hiding Easter egg references to political figures in the backgrounds of his artwork. In Batgirl (Vol 4) #9 (July 2012), for example, Syaf included a storefront sign that referenced the President of Indonesia, Joko Widodo, although the text that accompanies the image of Widodo is covered by a caption in the final published issue.
In April 2017, Syaf was at the center of controversy for including multiple Easter eggs in X-Men Gold #1 that referenced the November 2016 Jakarta protests against Basuki Tjahaja Purnama, the governor of Jakarta, which were viewed by readers as anti-Semitic and anti-Christian.
On the double-page spread of Pages 10 and 11 of X-Men Gold #1, in which the Jewish X-Man Kitty Pryde appeals to a crowd of people for tolerance, Syaf's art places Kitty's head next to the word "Jewelry" on a storefront awning in the background. The number "212", a reference to the 2 December protest, is prominently placed on another store's awning.
The number "51" is seen on the baseball cap of one of the people in the crowd, and on the shirt of another, a reference to the Quranic verse 5:51 at the center of the Indonesia protests. In the second panel of Page 12, the X-Man Colossus wears a shirt prominently displaying the text "QS 5:51".
The verse, Quran Surah 5:51, or QS 5:51, is commonly translated in Indonesian as:
"O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies. They are [in fact] allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you – then indeed, he is [one] of them. Indeed, Allah guides not the wrongdoing people."
This led to an outcry on social media on Saturday, April 8, three days after the book's publication, by readers who viewed the verse as support of intolerance towards other religions.
Marvel Comics released the following statement in response to the controversy:
"The mentioned artwork in X-Men Gold #1 was inserted without knowledge behind its reported meanings. These implied references do not reflect the views of the writer, editors or anyone else at Marvel and are in direct opposition of the inclusiveness of Marvel Comics and what the X-Men have stood for since their creation. This artwork will be removed from subsequent printings, digital versions, and trade paperbacks and disciplinary action is being taken"
Syaf also released a statement via his Facebook:
"Hello, Worlds…
My career is over now.
It's the consequence what I did, and I take it.
Please no more mockery, debat, no more hate. I hope all in peace.
In this last chance, I want to tell you the true meaning of the numbers, 212 and QS 5:51.
It is number of JUSTICE. It is number of LOVE. My love to Holy Qur'an…my love to the last prophet, the Messenger…my love to ALLAH, The One God.
My apologize for all the noise. Good bye, May God bless you all. I love all of you.
-Ardian Syaf-"
On April 11 2017 Ardian Syaf was released from his contract with Marvel comics.
"X-Men: Gold #2 and #3 featuring his work have already been sent to the printer and will continue to ship bi-weekly. Issues #4, #5, and #6 will be drawn by R. B. Silva and issues #7, #8, and #9 will be drawn by Ken Lashley. A permanent replacement artist will be assigned to X-Men: Gold in the coming weeks."

New study questions nearby galaxies being source of cosmic raysNovember 20th, 2007 - 2:44 pm ICT by admin
London, Nov 20 (ANI): A new research by scientists has discounted an earlier theory attributing the source of cosmic rays as being nearby galaxies.
Though the origin of cosmic rays has remained a mystery since their discovery in 1938, a n international collaboration of more than 370 scientists working at the Pierre Auger Observatory in Argentina, reported last week that the rare ultra-high-energy cosmic rays come from active galactic nuclei (AGN), which shine far brighter than regular galaxies.
These violent galaxies that host the AGN have supermassive black holes at their centre, and had been touted as, but never proven to be, the source of cosmic rays. They are also 100 million times more energetic than those produced by Earth's best particle accelerators.
But lack of evidence has failed to support the theory pointing towards the AGN being the source of cosmic rays.
A group of scientists had even cautioned the Auger Collaboration that what they were seeing was only a correlation rather than absolute proof.
Now, the High Resolution Fly's Eye (HiRes) collaboration, a smaller operation based at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, has tried to check this conclusion against data from ultra-high-energy cosmic-ray events they detected in the northern sky.
The researchers used the Auger team's parameters for factors such as the maximum distance of the active galactic nuclei from Earth and the maximum angle the ray will be bent by interactions with magnetic fields, and looked to see whether the active galactic nuclei could also explain their events.
Their results suggest that they don't, as only 2 of the 13 events looked at by the HiRes team correlated with active galactic nuclei.
"They see correlations, we do not see correlations," Nature News quoted Gordon Thomson, one of the HiRes collaborators, as saying.
But according to Paul Mantsch, a member of the Auger team, the two teams have different estimates for the energy of the rays, which might cause problem in comparing the results.
"The Auger team saw correlations with active galactic nuclei only for very-high-energy rays," said Mantsch. "If HiRes looks only at their own highest-energy rays, there could be so few events as to make statistical conclusions even more difficult," he added.
Andrea Santangelo, who is a member of the Extreme Universe Space Observatory mission team, which aims to look at high energy cosmic rays from space, says that more data will help to settle the issue. (ANI)

Ever wanted to follow the annual migration of wildebeest and other wildlife from the Ngorongoro Conservation Area to the Serengeti National Park? The Nasikia Mobile Camp offers adventurous guests the opportunity to witness this spectacle in all its glory from its two remarkable locations. The mobile camp moves between the two throughout the year, following the Great Migration.
Watch as wildebeest graze on the open Serengeti plains at the Small Marsh campsite between December and March, or see them take their chances passing floats of hungry crocodiles on the Bologonja and Mara rivers between July and October. At the Small Marsh campsite, lucky guests may even have the opportunity to witness the miracle of life during the calving season.
The arrangement of tents in the mobile camp changes according to the requirements of the location and other factors determined by responsible tourism. The camp is made up of 8-12 solar-powered Tents, protected by heavy-duty canvas and boasting en suite bathrooms. The camp has a special Dining Tent where guests congregate at mealtimes, and a Lounge Tent which features a library.

What Are the Costs of (Not) Sharing?
by Lisa Spiro — NITLE/ Anvil Academic
March 11, 2013 – 08:42
At an American Studies Association conference a few years ago, I was making a pitch for open access in the humanities when an older man stood up and gave one of those questions/sermons charged with disagreement. The gist of his commentary: If scholars give their work away, don't they devalue it? I argued that openly available work could have more value because it is more visible and could be more easily built upon by others, but he continued to insist that there should be a price tag attached to academic work. This encounter demonstrated to me that not everyone embraces academic sharing, and that giving can come with costs (perhaps especially if my interlocutor happens to be on your tenure committee).
Of course, we give away some of our most valuable goods: our love, our time, our attention, our opinions. But in doing so, we gain: love, purpose, learning, and insights. As Thomas Jefferson noted, sharing ideas resembles a flame passed from one candle to another, so that "He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine." But Jefferson also acknowledged that people might need "the embarrassment of an exclusive patent" so that they can personally profit from sharing and thus be encouraged to do so. Not sharing also has a cost—in invisibility, in standing apart from the community and the common good. And that gets to the heart of the matter: what do you give up and gain by sharing?
I would argue that sharing energizes and shapes a community, whether we share ideas, the burden, or credit. What attracts me to the digital humanities community is its ethic of sharing, whether by adopting open source software and Creative Commons licenses or exchanging ideas via Twitter and other social media. Digital humanists understand the power of open networks to connect people, as well as the need for access to data, tools and a community in order to do their work. But of course sharing is not some new-fangled notion preached by techies; scholarship depends on and aims at the free exchange of ideas.
Although I have been marking up texts and building digital collections since 1997, I feel like I didn't really become a full member of the digital humanities community until I started to blog in 2007. Blogging motivated me to pursue questions that interested me and gave me visibility and fast feedback. As a result of my blog, I received invitations to speak and contribute to collections like this one. As I noted in 2009, making your work openly available "is good—and good for you."
In starting up the Digital Research Tools (DiRT) wiki (with the help of a group of editors), I thought that it only made sense to share. As I was collecting information about a range of tools that support digital scholarship, I wondered why not increase its value by giving others access and encouraging them to offer their own knowledge? I was struck by how readily people like Dan Cohen and Alan Liu got in touch to share their tool collections. Sharing paid off, as DiRT has grown beyond what I could have imagined and is nurtured by a great advisory board.
Yet I realize that as an alt-academic, someone not confined by tenure requirements, it's easier for me to share. Although sharing is at the heart of what we do as scholars—creating, transmitting and preserving knowledge—academic culture and legal restrictions can stand in its way. Many humanists—and I include myself in this group—resist sharing until their ideas are perfectly polished, forgetting that the point of scholarly discourse is to contribute to an ongoing conversation, or to start a new one. By sharing, you get much faster feedback on your ideas. In an early blog post, I wondered at what point I should share. Was it OK to throw out half-baked ideas into the blogosphere? In a blog comment, Jean-Claude Bradley, one of the leaders of open notebook science, gave me great advice: just be clear about how provisional your ideas are. (I never would have received this advice if I hadn't shared my uncertainties publicly.) Another obstacle to sharing is the perverse academic reward system, which seems to judge work not as much for its contribution or impact as on the prestige of the venue in which it is published—often one that requires readers or their sponsoring institutions to pay for access. Legal barriers also limit sharing. There's a reason that much work in digital humanities focuses on pre-1923 material: copyright. You can't share what others claim ownership of—nor can you fully make use of it, even if much of this material is part of a common cultural heritage. Of course, there are also ethical reasons that circumscribe sharing, particularly privacy. I typically don't want to share information if doing so could jeopardize someone else. Despite these barriers and cautions, though, I think academics should share in order to participate in the scholarly community, do social good, and increase the impact of their work. The payoffs of sharing usually outweigh potential costs, and the value of scholarship shines through when it is shared.

I appreciate the advice you
by Danielle Roney Roach — Old Dominion University
March 14, 2013 – 08:15
I appreciate the advice you share from Bradley to "be clear about how provisional your ideas are"; it's freeing, isn't it? So many times we have these, as you say, "half-baked" things, and our own self-consciousness makes us wait to put it out there so we don't seem uninformed or out of the conversation. This also seems to allow you to somewhat plant your flag in a given line of inquiry early on and access resources that might have gone unknown if you'd remained silent.
I also want to say that I'm finding so many valuable resources in this month's responses. The DiRT project looks fantastic, and I'm looking forward to digging through (see what I did there?) all the ideas and resources contained therein. Along with the link to Erin Copple's Teaching Media Facebook group in her post and Tara McPherson's shout-out to the Alliance for Networking Digital Culture in her post on "Sharing the Archive," I feel like these are all examples of how project itself is demonstrative of the potential upside of sharing, and I'm so thankful to have access to it.
Advice & Recognition
by Lisa Spiro — NITLE/ Anvil Academic
March 16, 2013 – 07:16
Yes, the advice to make clear how tentative your ideas was freeing. People talk about the fear of being scooped as being as a major reason why academics don't share their stuff openly, but I suspect that the fear of looking stupid or being proven wrong also limits sharing.
I should emphasize that it took a collaborative effort to develop DiRT, and that Quinn Dombrowski deserves special recognition for serving as the project manager and developer of Bamboo DiRT. Happy digging!

So your child is underweight, not eating well, not growing well. You've been told to give him calorie dense drinks like Ensure, Pediasure, or Boost; lots of butter, pudding, whole milk, and cream; and of course, lots of ice cream. Is this healthy?
Seeing these common recommendations is one of my least favorite findings as a dietitian in private practice working with kids. There are four problems here that can interfere with restoring your child's robust health:
One, these drinks and foods are made with conventionally raised dairy products, which can contain bovine growth hormone, pesticides, traces of genetically modified feed corn proteins, and antibiotics, not to mention possible heavy metals from agricultural chemicals. All of these agricultural interventions have been linked to problems ranging from higher incidence of ADHD to earlier onset menses, other hormone disruptions in boys and girls, allergies, and neurological disorders.
Two, the child's underweight status may be at least partly due to an undiagnosed milk protein intolerance or allergy – which irritates and inflames the gut, making nutrients and energy even harder to absorb. Be sure to get this sorted out before relying on any milk protein sources in your child's diet.
Three, milk protein (casein) is often a constipating protein source, especially in children with some digestive insufficiency issues, like reflux or imbalanced gut microflora. Healthy gut microflora (bacteria) add enzymes to help us digest and absorb food, and keep bowel habits on track. If your child is unable to comfortably pass a soft formed stool most every day, then appetite can weaken – exacerbating the problem of packing in calories.
Last but not least – drinks like Ensure, Boost, and Pediasure rely on refined sugars and corn syrup (in various forms) to up their calories. I don't like this because corn syrup is noted for containing a bit of mercury in every teaspoon, thanks to agricultural processing. Corn is also a genetically modified crop. Emerging research suggests that proteins in foods from genetically modified crops can trigger allergy. More allergy = more gut inflammation = more difficulty absorbing nutrients and energy = poor growth and gain. And, there is no sound argument for relying on refined sugars as a major strategy for growth and gain in children.
You can do way better.
First, make sure you are not battling undetected food sensitivities or food allergies. Get tested! You may need to avoid milk protein sources entirely, in order for your child to feel hungrier and digest more comfortably. Many labs and providers can assist with this, and this is a specialty in my practice too. Make sure you look deeper than just IgE allergy responses with a conventional MD allergist. For more information on this, see either of my books.
If eggs and nuts are allowable, get a powerful blender or food processor – the sky's the limit, with those two ingredients adding creaminess without milk or ice cream. Everything on my list below is organic, no added sweeteners in the milk substitutes, and raw where possible. When using nuts, blend those first to smooth consistency with ice and a small amount of the recipe's liquid. Then add remaining ingredients til smooth.
Banana Cream: ¼ cup raw cashews, 1/2 ripe banana, 1 cup almond milk, dash vanilla flavoring, 1/2 c crushed ice, 2 TBSP sesame tahini, 1/8 teaspoon stevia powder, hefty dash cinnamon. Add cacao nibs or if you don't have those, organic mini dark chocolate chips (1 teaspoon) for additional zip. Blend ice, cashews, tahini, and 2-3 ounces of almond milk together first, until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla and remaining almond milk, and blend again til smooth. Add cacao nibs and blend to desired consistency.
GI Soother: 2 peeled apples, 3 stalks celery with leaves, 5 mint leaves, 1/3 seeded peeled cucumber, 2 teaspoons ground flax seed or ½ teaspoon flax seed oil, ½ – ¾ cup white grape juice, 2 TBSP whole coconut milk, crushed ice
Not Latte: 1 cup organic brewed iced (decaf) coffee, 1 raw egg, 1/2 teaspoon maple syrup, 1 TBSP sesame tahini, 3 TBSP cashews, 3 ounces almond milk, 3 ounces whole unsweetened canned coconut milk, crushed ice
Power Peanut: ½ soft ripe avocado, 1 TBSP cacao nibs, 1 TBSP hemp protein (such as Nutiva brand), 1 TBSP peanut butter, 3 ounces whole unsweetened canned coconut milk, 3 ounces almond or hemp milk, 1 teaspoon honey, crushed ice
Pineapple Smoothie: Fresh pineapple chunks ¼ cup, 1 ripe banana, 3 ounces whole coconut milk, 3 ounces unsweetened almond milk, dash vanilla, 2 teaspoons flax seed meal, 1 whole egg + 1 TBSP egg protein powder (option: try soaked hemp nuts in this one too)
These two are modified from a favorite book of mine called Raw Food Cleanse, which has several great recipes for smoothies, soups, and dips.
Soup Option, serve warm: ¼ cup raw cashews, 1 cup vegetable broth (such as Imagine brand organic), 6 stalks fresh young asparagus, 2 stalks celery with leaves, ¼ teaspoon fresh thyme leaves – blend all til smooth.
Pumpkin Navel: ¼ cup raw pecans, 1 navel orange, ¼ teaspoon orange zest, ¼ cup pitted dates (soak these ahead of time to soften), dash vanilla, crushed ice, ½ cup almond milk, 2 TBSP cup cooked canned pumpkin puree, 1/2 teaspoon honey or dash stevia
Honeydew Lime Creamsicle: Click here for this really good smoothie – doubles as frozen pops in hot weather.
More ideas..
– For any smoothie with fruits like kiwi, berries, papaya, peaches, pear, or mango, adding a raw egg or ground flax seed will create a creamy texture while adding healthy fats, protein, and minerals. Using egg protein powder is an option too. This will make your smoothies fluffy and creamy at the same time, but won't add the fats you might like.
– Raw nuts blend to a nice creamy consistency with the right tool – a powerful blender, Vitamix, or Bullet mixer. Soak raw nuts (and seeds) ahead of time if you like a more smooth, less grainy texture.
– Hemp seeds, flax seeds, chia seeds, and cacao nibs are up and coming as alternative sources of protein, healthy fats and oils, and minerals. Add these to any smoothie to boost nutritional value along with calories.
– Wean sugar-holics off their favorite processed calorie booster drinks by making your own without any added sugars: Instead of honey, maple syrup, or molasses, switch to an organic stevia powder, which is potently sweet at a tiny dose. One eighth teaspoon is enough to sweeten an 8 ounce blended drink. Add cinnamon in larger amounts – 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon – to kick up the sweet and benefit from cinnamon's blood sugar modulating effects.
– Unconventional but healthy options for sweeteners in smoothies can create the creamy texture kids like, plus add extra fiber, vitamins, and minerals to smoothies. Try left over baked sweet potato (skins removed), cooked canned pumpkin, or leftover roasted mashed parsnips, which have a surprisingly pleasant and gentle sweetness when prepared this way (easy, fast, and good; use ghee, not butter, for extra sweetness and to avoid dairy protein).
– Cook brown rice in whole coconut milk with honey, nutmeg, and cinnamon for an alternative to all the pudding your child may have been told to eat. Use a slow, low heat method and add almond or coconut milk to the liquid if needed during cooking. An hour or more of slow cooking may be needed.
– Use coconut milk to make mild (but calorie laden) curry sauces that can go over favorite chicken or fish dishes.
– A good blender or VitaMix will turn raw nut pieces into a creamy smoothie, but organic nut butters are an option if using whole raw nuts is too gritty a texture for your child.
– Get the benefit of butter without the allergy or GMO hassle by using organic ghee (clarified butter). Pricey, but when you need it, you need it. Ghee has a sweeter taste than butter that isn't clarified.
– Skip the soy. Even if it isn't genetically modified, it's a frequent allergy offender, just like dairy protein. And there are endocrine effects from soy that are concerning enough for me to suggest that parents don't use it as a major daily protein for a child. Translation: A serving here or there is fine, but don't use it as your child's protein source at every snack and meal daily. Soy protein is a common addition to bottled smoothies, energy bars, and protein powders.
– If multiple allergies are in the picture – and nuts, eggs, and seeds are out – then work with a knowledgeable nutritionist who can assist with using essential amino acids, medium chain triglycerides, and safe oils to build smoothies around tolerated carbohydrate sources like ripe peaches, pears, avocado, plums, or winter squashes and pumpkin.
These options will give your child several nutrients, healthy fats, more protein, and calories to burn that are head and shoulders above some corn syrup, vitamins, and milk from a cow raised on chemicals. Remember that poor appetite and weak growth pattern can be signs of deeper problems with the GI tract, digestion, absorption, or inflammation. For strategies to sort these out, see either of my books, or get in touch. Troubleshooting growth pattern is one of my specialties in practice.

Dont forget quinoa.
I'm surprised coconut oil nor avocado were mentioned as smoothie add-ins.
Elizabeth, so true! Both avocado and coconut get a lot of mention in my books. Avocado was a big help for the boy pictured here. -Judy
Do you know how many calories are in a serving of your shakes that are listed on the page? And how much would a serving be. Trying to substitute them for my 14 month old daughters 8 ounces of PEdiadure required a day
What a great article. I am always hesitant when parents are giving their kids these pre-made drinks, and you have made making your own very approachable with lots of options.
In your banana cream smoothie recipe, it calls for 1/8 cup of stevia powder, is this maybe supposed to be 1/8 tsp?
what would you suggest for a 21 month old that wont take anything like milk? (mainly drinks, will eat chocolate puddings and yogurt) and only eats yellow/white foods?
Would love to know if your son/ daughter's eating improved and how. Concerns are similar for 28 month.
Drinks milk but eating is so restricted is very worrying. Waiting referrals at this time. Looking for hope!
Love this article and the work you are doing! Have you thought of this? Many times these children end up on feeding tubes and the same products you mention as being so horrible are the same ones used for enteral nutrition. This leaves parents feeling they have no choice at all than to give these products to their child if they want to "feed" them. Will you please share our product, Liquid Hope? It is the world's first organic whole foods feeding tube meal, nutritionally dense and no added sugar! Liquid Hope can also be used orally. This product is helping many children and adults alike and we would be grateful if you would let your readers know there is a choice.
Do you have a recommendations as a substitute of the tahini if one is allergic to sesame seeds? Thanks for the recipes!
I would love to try these with my son but he has SPD and only takes in whole milk through a bottle and only eats certain stage 2 baby foods plus Greek yogurt. His diet is full of dairy but that's all he will take in. He is 4 and we've worked with OT's and Speech therapists since he was born. Any other ideas on how to add these sorts of things to his diet?
THANKS!! We fight for every ounce on my son and am always looking for good, healthy ways to add the weight. Looking forward to trying some of these as he loves smoothies and milk shakes.
Do you have non-nut recipes. My guy handles nuts, but school is nut free. He eats 3 meals a day there and I find it hard to make up the calorie difference in one meal at dinner (that is if he wants to eat come dinner time).
I have a 2.5 year old that will only eat bacon cream of wheat, orange cream yogurt and graham crackers. He drinks Pediasure and orange juice regularly but will drink most anything. He does not tolerate any textures in any food. Yogurt can't have fruit etc. I worry about him. Nobody has been able to come up with any undead except to say he has autistic eating habits.
Great article! My daughter was born with GI issues due to a CHD. She has GERD & eats mainly through a g-tube. My goal is work her off of the Pediatric Compleat tube formula made by Nestle. It's first ingredients are water & corn syrup. Would you recommend these recipes for tube feeds as well? Suggestions welcome!
Judy- I was excited to see this article was written by you because I've been reading your book Special Needs Kids Eat Right. I actually stumbled upon it at the library. I'm finding it very interesting and think it can be helpful for my 5 year-old son. He has attention, behavior, and sleeping problems. He also has Aspergers tendencies. He is happy eating a ton of cheese and yogurt and raw vegetables and fruit. We've cut out gluten and are beginning to remove dairy. My question is which probiotics are good for his age? I can only find powdered for infants and toddlers and liquid, which is dairy. Which strains should I look for and can you recommend a brand? Thank you!
My son is 2 years old and only in the 4th percentile for weight.. His dr recommended increasing protein but it has not been easy because my son is such a picky eater! I have tried pediasure but I did not like the changes to his bowel movements so while looking for alternatives I stumbled upon this site. My son also seems to suffer from reflux, though the upper GI came back fine and allergy tests showed he was not allergic to dairy, soy, gluten, etc. we did see a GI specialist who said he could have an allergic reaction in his esophagus due to the dairy but we have not had an endoscopy to confirm. He frequently throws up in his mouth though and never seems interested in eating unless it is drinking milk or something sweet. We tried Zantac but it didn't help.. It actually seemed to make his appetite worse. I just want to find out what to do next.. I would hate to put him through unnecessary dr visits and procedures. Not sure if this is related to his GI issues but he also gets car sick (vomits) and is extremely clumsy. Any suggestions as to what my next step should be in figuring this out? Thank you!
My 3 yr old daughter has a feeding tube and currently is getting tube feeds overnight (not during day to try to get her hungry and eating more). Can these recipes be used through a tube at a slow rate?
We are concerned about the amount of corn syrup in her Pediasure, and lack of weight gain since she is not getting tube fed during the day. Thank you!
Great article! Thank you! I've been looking up calorie dense recipe ideas for my toddler and am kind of appalled at what I'm seeing, which is basically just recipes with tons of sugar and full fat dairy. :p My daughter has a lot of random allergies that make some of these recipes hard, but substituting or omitting some ingredients is easy enough, and you gave some great, unique ideas and touched on some important points. Thank you!!
like to have more on milk allergic kids growth
Thank you so much for your post, Judy. My underweight 7 year old son has a milk protein allergy and a very small appetite for anything healthy. I plan on trying your shakes to see if it will put some weight on him and who knows, he might actually like them. Here's hoping!
Judy, when pressed for time, can you recommend a non-dairy high-calorie supplement for a picky, underweight 7 year old on the go?
Are these smoothies ounce for ounce calorie equal to pediasure, or one smoothie is equal to one 8 oz pediasure? We have been searching for replacements for my sons pediasure and are so excited by your article. Encouraging and full of great information, your knowledge gives us hope!
My 2.5 yr old daughter doesn't take milk at all…wat should i do
My 6-year-old daughter with ASD and seizure disorder has long struggled with constipation and has a strong gag reflex when presented with foods outside her very limited repertoire. I've tried to manage her issues without drastic measures by including oatmeal and organic baby food pouches (fruits and vegetables) as part of her daily diet. Over the past six to eight months, her food repertoire has shrunk even further, and her gastrointestinal issues have increased; more vomiting and complaining of tummy pains. She's also lost some weight. We've seen her pediatrician, started probiotics (just yesterday), and have appointments with a pediatric gastroenterologist and an OT. I want to try some of your smoothies, but I'm worried that ingredients like mint or cacao nibs might cause her to reject them or vomit upon smelling or tasting. Will the banana cream and gi soother still taste okay if I eliminate the stronger flavored elements?
I just started making my daughter a berry/banana with milk smoothie in the mornings, as she won't eat anything, she is 14, is it safe to add some egg whites to her drink and if so how much
My son with Down syndrome was primarily NG tube-fed for the first 16 months and has significant oral feeding difficulties. He is now 5-year old and still struggling with weight gain (only 29 lb.) and oral feeding difficulties/dysphagia. He is still struggling to make progress due to a significant hyper-gag reflex and hypersensitivity in the oral cavity. He tends to vomit on a regular/almost-daily basis, largely due to his gag reflex combined with a likely weak lower esophageal sphincter, reflux, and poor gastric emptying. His feedings are time intensive of every 1 to 1-1/2 hour interval given the significant volume he is required to consume in order to maintain his growth and hydration. Due to small tolerate amount, he can only tolerate small volume of 2.5-3.5 oz. with each feedings. His 3-course diet for breakfast, lunch, and dinner included one of his favorite foods (cheese puffs) and a soup puree. The soups are either homemade or purchased from Whole Foods, blend it down to a puree and then through a strainer to remove all remnants of the soup for a smoother consistency. Safflower oil, coconut oil or avocado oil is added to the soup to increase calories. PediaSure is supplement for extra calories in between each meal and Duocal is also added to his diluted coconut water for extra calories. Due to the risk of aspiration on thin liquid, Thick-It thickener is added to his liquid for nectar thick consistency. I am looking for a smoothie recipe to replace his high calories PediaSure (1.5 cal per ml). Do you have a plain vanilla favor smoothie recipe as an alternative to his high calories PediaSure? Have you heard of PediaSmart? What are your thoughts on the product?
Are raw eggs safe?
What do you think about blood group diet? Is it true that we have to carefully choose food that we eat according to our A,B, AB, or O blood group?
Judy, my daughter is 2 years old, she has been under 5th percentile in her weight for the last six month, and not eating well since about 11 months old. We just recently stopped breastfeeding, but I've been offering her whole milk since one year old and she has been rejecting it, along with practically all diary products – just won't eat or drink it, even home made whipped cream. She is IgA deficient, but IgG, IgE, and IgM came back normal (I know because of low IgA, the rest are not reliable). Her Celiac panel was negative, but we just saw a GI and she ordered DGP-IgA IgG since she still suspects celiac disease (mentioned nothing about milk proteins) and prescribed Omeprazole meanwhile, but my daughter never had any symptoms of reflux (GI said even without symptoms she can have it , plus it's needed in case she will need a "scope"). And of course she recommended Pediasure- (doing my research lead me to your site). I don't want to give her pediasure as I believe in whole foods, and very hesitant to give her omeprazole. I am so torn to follow recommendations of GI doctor? And my pediatrician thinks there is nothing wrong at all. What other tests can be done to rule out milk protein allergy/sensitivity? Thank you!
Thank you so much Judy. I am going to order your books today as I didn't know what to do withis my daughter. However, once she is in daycare or a school setting what do you suggest?
Is raw egg (non cooked egg) and added to these smoothie recipes blender without being cooked first safe for a toddler to consume? I always thought it wasn't.
Please explain.
Thanks Nat
Btw, i just discovered your website and absolutely love it:)
Just made the Banana Cream for my "underweight", 23 pound 2 year old and she LOVED it! Drank every last sip! My ped told me to give her pediasure twice a day but I don't like the ingredients (and it is SOOOO expensive!!!!!!) soooo this is the route I am taking. The goal is to gain weight and how I go about doing that is up to me so I am going to try to do it the healthy way. Thank you for the information!!
I am so grateful to have found this! You are truly heaven sent. I have a 7 month old who suffered a brain injury at birth and is currently suffering from low tone in his neck & core. He gets extremely constipated. I'm currently breastfeeding & introducing solids. Are the above recipes infant friendly? He often breaks out from first stage baby food(the organic foods I blend as well) so he's scheduled for an allergy test Tuesday. Things like pears, apples & berries causes him to have red rings around his eyes as soon as he eats them. He was gaining weight nicely until he turned four months. Now at seven months he's only gained two lbs but grew a total of 7 inches since birth. He is extremely long & very skinny. I'm not sure what to do. His doctor is no help. Can you suggest something please?
UPDATE: My daughter, who was 23 pounds in August, is now up to 27/28 pounds, depending on when I weigh her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's a HUGE gain. (Last year, within one years time she only gained 5 pounds…I wasn't giving her anything supplemental because I didn't realize she was "underweight") I make her the banana cream shake daily, and she drinks it entirely. I am THRILLED! Weight check at the doctors in a week and I hope that they will be pleased as well. 🙂
Hi Judy,
Thanks for sharing, great & informational article!
I've had similar problem too, my son would often refuse to eat and he was very underweight. Although he's quite a picky eater, somehow he loves Pediasure. I've seen great improvements after 1-2 months, he's started to eat more regularly and properly now.
I love these ideas for alternatives to Pediasure, however they are are too thick to work with a bottle nipple. My daughter is 11 months old and doesn't yet drink well enough from a cup or straw. Would there be anything similar to the thin consistency of Pediasure? Thanks!
Hi.. I am an Indian mother of 2year old son. Loved your article . Very informative. Your recipes are too good. Thank you . My son is also underweight but I am ok with that as he is active and healthy. May be it is his body nature.
Hi. What egg protein powder do you recommend please? Thank you
Hello . My son has a G tube and is underweight . He is 3 yrs old but weighs only 20 pounds.
Our nutritionist suggested Duocal and to increase the pediasure to 3 cans .
I think Pediasure is not helping him . Is there any alternative way I can help him to gain him some weight . He also has high muscle tone and tightness in his body .
Can you please suggest. Thanks

TAMPA (92.3 The Fan) – The positives for the Cleveland Gladiators (0-3) in the first half equaled their negatives in the second half, and all that was left was more heartbreak.
After leading 27-7 early in the second quarter, led by a remarkable performance by the "Cleveland Cannon" Arvell Nelson in his first start of the season under center, a slew of Cleveland miscues allowed Tampa Bay Storm (2-1) quarterback Randy Hippeard to bring his team back and triumph over the Glads again, 62-61. The loss gives the Gladiators their third straight by a total of only 10 points.
The positives: Nelson was electrifying, throwing for 358 yards and seven touchdowns and running in another touchdown with zero interceptions; wide receiver Quentin Sims was unstoppable, catching 14 passes for 205 yards and setting a new career-high with five touchdowns while adding a sixth rushing touchdown to open the game; four sacks in the game from the defense, including two from nose tackle Willie McGinnis and another one-and-a-half from defensive end Nick Seither; a great performance from newcomer Michael Preston, who scored his first two AFL touchdowns since 2011; two fourth down stops thanks to great pressure up front and great coverage in the back; two solid games from defensive backs Kelvin Rodgers and Terry Johnson, who were just assigned to the Gladiators this week and combined for 17 tackles, a pass deflection and a forced fumble; and the Gladiators recovered their first onside kick of the season which led to them retaking the lead in the final minute.
The negatives: Holding a 33-28 lead after one of those fourth down stops, Nelson fumbled on third-and-goal from the one-yard line, and Tampa Bay recovered the ball and took their very first lead on the ensuing possession; two missed extra points by rookie replacement kicker Ben Deighton, which made a difference in the end; after taking a 61-56 lead in the final minute, the Gladiators allowed the Storm to strike back with the final go-ahead score in 35 seconds; still no answer for Hippeard, who had another field day with the Gladiators defense, out-dueling Nelson with 387 passing yards and nine total touchdowns (two rushing, including the game-winner); and Collin Taylor struggled to break the Storm coverage and was left without a touchdown reception, ending his franchise-record touchdown streak after 33 games.
In the end, the only statistic that matters is the loss. The Gladiators have started the season 0-3 two other times in franchise history, in 2010 and 2013. In 2010, the team bounced back with three straight wins and ended the season 7-9, which could be enough to put them back in the playoffs this year. However, in 2013, the team never recovered and fell to 4-14, which will cut their season short.
As head coach Ron Selesky said last week after falling short against Baltimore, this team's effort has never been a problem. They will keep fighting until the final whistle and always give Cleveland something to cheer for in the end. But eventually, the team needs to start making plays in the critical moments. And, in a game where the room for error is always paper-thin, the Gladiators believe perfect execution will be the only way to get out of this slump.
They will have another chance to notch their first win next week against the expansion Washington Valor at Quicken Loans Arena. Kickoff will be Friday night at 7pm.

Hi everybody! It's me, Rick! Thanks for all those who have contributed to the rescue mission. I was already starting to fear that I will spend the rest of my life in this cold river. I admit, the view would be spectacular since I have landed just next to Lucerne's biggest tourist attraction, the Chapel Bridge. In the back you can see Pilatus.
The Chapel bridge is amazing for more than one reason. It is diagonal, meaning it is not passing the river in the shortest way. It is a pedestrian pass that is made of wood and that is covered - actually it is one of the oldest wooden covered bridges in Europe. It is also the longest truss bridge in the world. Trusses are construction elements in the form of triangles.
Inside the triangles come paintings showing the history of Lucerne.
From the bridge we can see the old town and the Town Hall.
On 18 August 1993 a huge fire broke, almost destroying the bridge.
|Source: www.20min.ch
As a result, 75% of the paintings were destroyed. The bridge and the paintings were subsequently restored. Now they look as new. Or as old to be more precise.
The tower in the middle is actually not a chapel. It is a water tower, that used to be a prison as well. Nowadays it is closed to the public.
Did you notice the white building on top of the hill? It is Château Gütsch. It was built in 1888 by architect Emil Vogt as a private residence. Nowadays it is a five star hotel.
It was a long and exhausting day. Time to go back to the train station. Next to it you can find the Lucerne Museum of Art.
The Lucerne railway station was heavily impacted by the fire that burnt the Chapel Bridge. Nowadays only the former facade has survived, forming an arc of triumph leading to the new and modern station building.
Finally, we need to leave the heart of the old town and take a look at the Dying Lion of Lucerne. It was carved out of natural rock in memory of the loyalty and bravery of the Swiss mercenaries who died when protecting the French kind Louis XVI at the Tuileries in 1792. Mark Twain described the Lion of Lucerne as the saddest and most moving piece of rock in the world.
The Lion of Lucerne, sometimes linked with Aslan from "The Chronicles of Narnia", is a good summary of my trip to Lucerne. I must say that today I have witnessed a rainbow of feelings, going from despair to hope and enthusiasm. Lucerne will forever have a special place in my hearth.

today i updated the code on my server. it fix's some issues where users were submitting nonce's over port 80.
this missed a lot of code out so the recent update disabled the use of this port for most api requests. please use port 8124 instead.
ill be working on updating the source so it accepts this again once ive written a process so it all goes through the same procedures.
This is for tross pool too!
New changes to tross pool!
I added the forum chat and will be fixing small html issues!
tross pool will now accept asset or burst donations!
All donations will be used for Burst Bash, Vps rental and cbox.
Burst Bash Donations! Address: BURST-M6QV-W865-2GJ9-7QN2K
After I move the pool to a VPS I will work on other ideas I have for the pool!
I plan on migrating any time now but no later than next week!
Burst Bash is coming up soon so keep an eye on my pool!
tross pool is now on a vps here in Germany! I am expecting a little better performance and stability. Now I have an easier time

@tross its funny but if you check the lat message on the software thread a few other users have the issue was well.
its funny cause windows doesnt care about the case "Charts.js" is in. but linux. seems to be case sensitive
@Lexicon In the back of my mind I knew linux was case sensitive and also than windows dont care. To me looking for it is like finding a O in rows and rows of C. So you saved me tons of hours looking for the cause!
tross pool is having a burst bash within the next 48hrs. I will send 2400 burst to pool 10 times.

We have chosen some of the most inspiring and unique venues to accommodate our road show, from the historic Engineers' House to the fascinating exhibition space at Mercedes-Benz World."
Last year the historic venue in Clifton Down, once the home of Charles Pinney, Mayor of Bristol, invested in superfast synchronous internet, capable of delivering upload and download speeds of 100Mbit/s.

The college's Welding certificate students, alumni, their instructor and local businesses are working hard to complete a dozen one-of-a-kind pieces for the March 1 event.
"The preparation of all the pieces for this event is a highlight of our Welding certificate program," Swift Current Campus welding instructor Jared McKenzie said. "It gives students a chance to practice the skills they're learning and showcase the trade by turning pieces of metal into art."
A Swift Current Broncos fire pit and a desk made from a 1941 Chevrolet Master Deluxe are among the pieces that will be auctioned off at the event. A new surprise element is also being added to this year's event. Buyers will have the chance to bid on a mystery item that will be unveiled after the winning bid is received.
"Supporters of this event not only get to experience a live auction and a fun evening of food and drink, but their dollars are directly supporting the Welding program at the college. We're very thankful to everyone that comes out to the event year after year." McKenzie said.
This event wouldn't be possible without the great support of the community and sponsors, including S3 Enterprises, Acklands Grainger, Honey Bee Manufacturing, PDQ Autobody and New Edge Laser Cutting.
For a sneak peek at some of this year's auction pieces, stay tuned to the Great Plains College Facebook page, Twitter feed or website.

Statement of the Progressive Youth Alliance
20 December 2013
On a Press Conference held at Chief Albert Luthuli House; addressed by Mzwandile Masina (ANCYL), Buti Manamela (YCLSA), Collen Malatji (COSAS) and Ntuthuko Makhombothi (SASCO)
On Nelson Mandela
1. The Progressive Youth Alliance want to take this opportunity to thank all South Africans, especially youth, who came out in their numbers for the hundreds of memorial services and for the funeral of Isithwalandwe/Seaparankwe and former President of the ANC, Tata Nelson Mandela.
2. We will always be inspired by the leadership of Tata Nelson Mandela and his generation in their fight against apartheid and for a democratic South Africa. Tata Nelson Mandela led the ANC collective that laid the basis for our freedom through the negotiations process.
3. We are extremely disappointed by attempts to isolate Tata Mandela from the ANC by people who still remains opposed to what he stood for, the building of a non-racial, non-sexist, democratic South Africa, and for the liberation of blacks in general and Africans in particular from political and economic bondage. The ANC-led alliance still remains true and consistent to this main goal of the National Democratic Revolution.
4. In Tata Mandela, and his generation of leadership, the ANC led our people to express their demands through the Freedom Charter, the RDP Base Document and "Ready to Govern". We believe that major successes achieved over the last 20 years have been as a result of the efforts of Tata Mandela and ANC government, and that South Africa is a different country precisely because of their leadership.
5. We have also noted attempts to suggest that Tata Mandela and the ANC-led alliance have sold out our people in the negotiations process. This is malicious and consistent with the propaganda that was spread by those who wanted the early-90`s political violence to continue, and were not interested in the peaceful resolution. We are thankful to the efforts of the leadership at the time and, in particular, the leadership of Tata Mandela.
6. We congratulate the media for the role they played in covering the events and the manner in which they informed, especially youth, about the history of this country and the life of Tata Mandela. We are certain that through this, history will never repeat itself and in the words of Tata Mandela, "never will our nation remain the skunk of the world"
7. We hope that the family remains strong at this time, and agree that they are owed an apology by those who orchestrated the booing of the President at the stadium on the day of the memorial.
On Education
8. We have noted the fact that councils of universities and colleges have exponentially increased fees whilst student are on holiday hoping that there will be no contestation of this when the institutions open. We want to warn college and university managers that we are aware of this trick and we are going to fight it head on. SASCO and all PYA organs will be on all campuses ensuring that we fight any such attempts. We call for a 0 percent fee increment across all institutions.
9. We are wishing all the best for matriculants who are waiting for the release of their final results. We call upon the department of education to listen to the voice of young people who are not supporting the publication of matric results, we believe that matric result is a private matter between the learner and the school.
Numsa leaders shall fail to destroy the ANC and the alliance
10. The PYA has noted with utter disgust the utterances and attacks by the Numsa`s leaders, directed at the ANC, SACP and Cosatu (to which Numsa is supposedly affiliated). For a while now Numsa`s leaders have rampantly been attacking the ANC, SACP and the alliance at every turn.
11. The Numsa special national congress that is underway in Boksburg seems to have been organised among others to drive these attacks to their zenith, with all sorts of childish innuendos.
12. The PYA can no longer remain silent, and will not fold our arms when the alliance, its programme and leadership is under attack from counter-revolutionary elements who enjoy listening to their hollow noises without any interruption. The attacks against the revolutionary alliance are coupled with and constitute a de-campaigning spree against the ANC given the forthcoming national general elections in 2014. This has the effect of aiding if not forming part of a counter-revolution and opposition.
13. Among the things that Numsa`s leaders have been saying are insinuations that the ANC, SACP and the alliance have abandoned the Freedom Charter, and that the 1994 democratic breakthrough, by extension our present democratic transition, is tantamount to a sell-out trade-off. The utterances and attacks have been coupled with threats, at times subtle and at times blatant, to leave the alliance, not to support the ANC in the forthcoming elections and beyond, and to consider forming a so-called independent workers party and a trade-union federation.
14. This must be exposed for what it is, nothing but a factional agenda of renegades - either in the making or in transit. The degree of self-importance by these elements is over-estimated if not over-exaggerated. The fact is, the ANC will win the 2014 elections! As the PYA we will go all out to achieve this outcome.
15. As the PYA we wish to state in no uncertain terms that neither our national democratic revolution nor the Freedom Charter which stipulates the basic goals of the revolution is an ultra-left or workerist project. The national democratic revolution laid the foundation for our present democratic transition by defeating the system of apartheid colonialism in 1994. Contrary to what Numsa`s leadership wants our people to believe, the defeat of apartheid colonialism which we are yet to completely obliterate and the ushering in of our democratic transition have resulted in huge advances and improvements in the lives of our people, many of whom are the workers and the poor.
16. The very human and labour rights that workers enjoy, including the right not to be discriminated on the basis of race and gender, both in the community and at work in contrast to what happened under apartheid colonialism, are the direct fruit of our national democratic revolution. These were fought for by our revolutionary alliance long before those who attack it were born and long before some of the existing organisations were established.
17. Today South Africa is a much better place than it was in the pre-1994 period, because of our revolutionary alliance. For Numsa`s leadership to consistently suggest the opposite is absurd, to say the least. The very rights they have to express their views openly and publicly is the direct fruit of our liberation struggle. Since 1994, 19 years after our revolutionary alliance defeated apartheid colonialism, millions of our people, Africans in particular and Blacks in general, the workers and the poor, including Numsa members, who were prohibited to vote, who did not have access to electricity, housing, clean water and sanitation, education in particular but not exclusively further and higher education, social security, to mention but a few, now enjoy the right to vote, and have access to these advances!
18. Our liberation alliance never declared the revolution over. Neither have the primary opponents of our revolution closed shop. In the words of Tata Mandela, when closing the ANC Conference in 1997, "The struggle continues". There is much more that needs to be done, but very few revolutions on earth match the achievements of ours in the 19 years since our democratic breakthrough.
We remain resolute in our support for President Jacob Zuma
19. As the PYA we also note the opportunistic call by Numsa leaders for President Jacob Zuma to resign. This is nothing but the result of the failure of their now publicly known un-mandated lobby to secure the position of Deputy President for Zwelinzima Vavi in the last ANC National Conference, held in Mangaung, 2012. It is now clearer why they wanted that position, they most probably sought to secure it so they could thereafter manoeuvre to remove our President and take over ANC and government leadership.
20. It is wrong in the extreme for Numsa leaders to use a Public Protector`s report that is yet to be released, and therefore whose contents are not publicly known, to find the President guilty and call upon him to resign. In this the Numsa leadership is not alone, it is marching together with right-wing elements of all sort.
21. As the PYA we rejected this malicious and treacherous forked tongue agenda and condemn with the contempt it deserves. When this is contrasted to their position on the suspended Cosatu General Secretary the hypocrisy of Numsa leadership is exposed for all to see at the place in the sun.
22. We welcome the release of the government report on Nkandla, its findings and recommendations. However we want to express our displeasure on the inability of government to be clearer of the sanctions to be meted against those who sought to use and abuse the name of the President of the ANC during the security upgrade in his homestead. As PYA, we are calling for government to press criminal charges against former Minster Geoff Doidge, his former Deputy Minister Hendrietta Bogopane-Zulu to be dismissed with immediate effect for her role in the Nkandla Prestige Project A. We also call for the pressing of criminal charges and recouping of government money from these unscrupulous contractors. Lastly, we demand that government clarifies the public what is going to happen to the government precinct (costing R107 million of the R206 million) adjacent to the homestead of the President of the ANC after he retires as the head of state.

Pups and Proposal – Part 1: The New House
Hey! Hi-there.
How have you been?
Now that we're past the small talk…
My goodness gracious! — Where do I begin?!
Three whole months of radio silence on the blog, and I believe I better explain myself as best I can.
There have been so many events, life decisions, changes and new obstacles/challenges to overcome and learn from. And those have been just a few things engulfing my spare-time, sleep-time, food-time — basically, my life(time), over these past few months.
However, now that I've had a chance to come up for air, I'd love to give you a little insight as to what's been going on!
Thus, shall I begin with Cole and I moving into our first house/home together, adopting our 3rd puppy and what we decided to name him, or The Proposal? — I know. A lot, right?
Let's begin at the.. well, beginning.
And since it's a lot of information, I'll break these life chapters down into parts.
Part I: The House.
Now, let's be honest.
You may have visited/vacationed in California, and I'm sure you spent a pretty penny while here, didn't you?
But, can you imagine living in CA?
Outside of New York (and I've lived there before, too), California is one of the most expensive places to reside in the United States; with a cost of living at 30% above the national average.
So, if you're living here in your early 20's and you aren't already splitting rent 4-ways with your 3 other roommates, living in a box of an apartment, or still shacking up with the parents, I'd suggest you and your significant other (if in a serious and committed relationship) begin discussing possible move-in dates.
Because, with property values and taxes on the rise, it just makes sense.
Cole and I, and our (then) two dogs, wouldn't have survived in anyone's 1 bedroom, 1 bath, apartment. There wasn't enough room at my old place or his, for us or our pups to be happy/have their own space.
And that is why, on April 24th, 2015, we moved into our new house, together!
Now, I could totally tell you that our first process of moving was a breeze.
That-how, Cole and I thought packing everything the night/day before the move, would work.
That everyone was smiling by the end, and our new home looked like the ending of a House Hunter's Renovation, episode.
And, if I told you that, it would all be:
Moving was a nightmare. Plain and simple.
By the end of the move, Cole and I barely had enough energy to speak to one another.
Not only was there a lot of heavy lifting involved for the both of us, but we spent an additional 6 hours deep cleaning Cole's apartment from 10pm at night, to 4 o'clock in the morning — only to find out that a broom-swept job would've done the trick to complete our departure.
However, we did manage to pack-up/breakdown and move all of our belongings into a U-Haul, and (messily) into the new place in a little over 24hrs, without a wink of sleep.
Yes. We. Did.
I cried when it was all over, due to extreme exhaustion and the back and forth driving.
By the end of the move, with tired eyes, I dragged my feet into our new kitchen and made Cole and I an oven pizza — only for us both to fall asleep halfway through eating it at 6am.
But my goodness was it worth it!
With 3 bedrooms and an additional bathroom, an actually living room, plenty of fenced yard space, an in-home washer and dryer, central heat and air, a larger kitchen with seemingly unlimited cabinet space and our dream refrigerator included, our house has definitely become a place we both love coming home to.
And the dogs are in heaven — which is probably one of the most rewarding parts.
Speaking of dogs…
That brings us to Part 2 of Pups and Proposal.
Be sure to visit the blog tomorrow morning for the name of which Cole and I decided upon for our new German Shepard puppy:

Tottenham's Toby Alderweireld Ready for Arsenal After 'Proper Hamstring Injury'February 9, 2018
Tottenham Hotspur centre-back Toby Alderweireld is back from a hamstring injury in time to face Arsenal in Saturday's North London derby, per Jon West for The Independent.
The Belgium international returned from a three-month layoff against Newport County in the FA Cup fourth-round replay on Wednesday, playing 90 minutes in a 2-0 win at Wembley. He is now ready to face Spurs' archrivals in one of the biggest games of the season.
Arsenal and Tottenham are separated by just four points in the Premier League, and with Chelsea on a poor run of form, both will feel optimistic about their chances of qualifying for the Champions League.
"It was a proper hamstring injury and the risk of re-tearing it was very big," he said, per West. "That's why we had to take our time and work very hard to get the muscles to be ready for this kind of game, and to play a lot of games again."
Alderweireld Toby @AlderweireldTob
Happy to be back 💪! Great victory for our fans and a clean sheet. Keep up the good work. #THFC #COYS https://t.co/tBCH8sET72
However, the 28-year-old seemed upbeat about the three-month rehabilitation period.
"It was a difficult period for me, but on the other hand it was three months," he said. "In a football career that's not that long. I'm 28 and I'm happy that I never had a knee injury or something a lot worse.
"Of course three months is difficult, but it could have been even longer. We worked hard to be very clever, doing the right things. We didn't start training too early."
Alderweireld is aware that facing Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who has scored four goals in four games against Spurs, will be a difficult challenge for a player just back from injury.
"Everybody knows he is very quick, and he is a good finisher," Alderweireld admitted of the man he faced in Tottenham's 3-1 victory over Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League in September. "So you have to work your mind. You know one against one on the same line he will beat you so you have to be very clever, read the situation and then try to beat him with your head."
Given the speed of his main opponent this weekend, and the relative ease of the midweek clash against Newport, it is possible that Alderweireld's recovery won't be fully tested until the day of the game. However, the Belgian feels positive.
"I feel very good," he said, per Sky Sports. "After 90 minutes, I worked very hard to play those kind of games and be ready and I feel very good."
There is little doubt Alderweireld's return is a boost for Tottenham, who have occasionally struggled in big matches without him. Manchester City beat Spurs 4-1 at the Etihad in December with Eric Dier making a crucial error at centre-back, while Liverpool's 2-2 draw with Spurs on Feb. 4 saw Davinson Sanchez caught out on several occasions.
With such a big game at Wembley, it is the perfect time for Alderweireld to step back into the action.

Authorities say the patient may have contracted the virus through sex with a survivor.
Liberia's last known Ebola patient has died at a treatment centre in Monrovia, the country's capital, acting head of the country's Ebola response team, Francis Ketteh, said.
The patient, a woman, died on Friday, March 27. Authorities say she may have contracted the virus through sex with a survivor.
"We have been able to trace the people she came in contact with," Ketteh told Reuters. "We call on everyone to follow the Ebola preventative measures."
According to Aljazeera, before the woman fell ill, the Liberian government had hoped to declare the country Ebola-free next month, 42 days after the last patient tested negative for a second time, which would mark double the length of the virus's incubation period.
The general population have been warned that even after areas are declared free of the disease, new cases are possible through sexual transmission. Liberia remains vulnerable to cases imported from Guinea and Sierra Leone.
However, beginning on Friday, March 28, Sierra Leone's six million people were being confined to their homes for three days as nation resorted again to a sweeping shutdown in a final push to stamp out Ebola. Sierra Leone President Ernest Bai Koroma vowed to do "whatever it takes" to get to zero cases.
