It's a common misconception that keto is just about bacon, eggs and cheese. In reality, there is a variety of foods you should eat to get all the nutrients you need. For this salad I used a few simple ingredients. The dressing is full of smokey flavour – not too spicy and with a nice hint of lime.

Longton Hall - (Ceramics, Porcelain, England) Facts about this porcelain factory, probably the first established in Staffordshire, are elusive. It seems to have been founded in 1751 by a partnership of which the leading spirit was William Littler, who had been engaged in the manufacture of salt-glazed stoneware at Brownhills, the style of the firm being Littler & Co. The factory closed in (perhaps before) 1760. Two types of soft-paste porcelain were made. The first is crude, rather heavy, with 'moons' often and with an uneven surface; dishes in the form of leaves are typical. Later a somewhat finer ware was produced which approaches Chelsea in quality. Longton Hall figures are esteemed and much sought by collectors. Crossed 'L's' are the usual mark.

This paper introduces a new paradigm for establishing a framework that enables interoperability between process models and datasets using ontology engineering. Semantics are used to model the knowledge in the domain of biorefining including both tacit and explicit knowledge, which supports registration and instantiation of the models and datasets. Semantic algorithms allow the formation of model integration through input/output matching based on semantic relevance between the models and datasets. In addition, partial matching is employed to facilitate flexibility to broaden the horizon to find opportunities in identifying an appropriate model and/or dataset. The proposed algorithm is implemented as a web service and demonstrated using a case study.

PermalinkI have some off-the-air recordings of MPFC episodes, and in one
Raw Message
of the animated bits ("Rampage of the Cancerous Black Spot"),
Michael Palin tells a story of an enchanted prince who finds a
black spot on his face. Now in my recording the line goes,
"Foolishly, he ignored it...and three years later he died of syphilis",
but in every rerun I've seen of that episode the word syphilis is
overdubbed (rather obviously) with either "cancer", or, in one
case, "gangrene".
Anyone know the history of this edit? Was the word syphilis
considered too risque by British censors at the time?

Actor Michael K. Williams dropped by Late Night with Seth Meyers on Monday to discuss his role in the second season of the SundanceTV television series Hap and Leonard. Williams used his time on camera to chat about his current role on the show and reminisce about his most famous part as Omar on HBO's The Wire.
Williams was greeted with enthusiasm by Meyers, who revealed that Williams, who previously appeared on the late night show in 2016, is one of the writing staff's favorite guests. The two discussed Williams' childhood connections with 30 Rockefeller Plaza. A native of Brooklyn, he disclosed that would often travel to Manhattan to see the Rockettes next door. After guesting on Late Night in 2016, he was finally able to go on the roof of the skyscraper and see the building's famous panorama of New York City.
Williams also talked about Omar, a cult favorite among TV aficionados. He revealed that he was an inexperienced actor when he began playing Omar in 2002. He credited writer David Simon with teaching him how to deliver his lines convincingly and acknowledged that much of the dialogue given to him was influenced by Shakespeare and was more stylized than typical Baltimore slang.
He also chatted about his current role as volatile Vietnam vet Leonard Pine on Hap and Leonard, recounting a funny story of accidentally booking a room next door to co-star James Purefoy. He also announced that his nephew Dominic Dupont, recently released from Riker's Island after serving 20 years for murder, has become his personal assistant.

If they don't want me, then I don't want them.
At least that was how I felt for a brief moment when an email appeared telling me that my subscription to Brain, Child magazine was going to expire. Then my rational side kicked in and I remembered how much I enjoy the magazine.
So I will renew my subscription. And I will continue to write and submit essays to them in the hopes that eventually they will want me as much as I want them.

Bombardier Transportation has successfully completed a 41.6 km catenary-free test run using a PRIMOVE battery equipped tram. The achievement is another milestone in the development of PRIMOVE battery systems and once again proves the solution's suitability for regular use.
The test run was conducted in the German city of Mannheim on the Rhein-Neckar-Verkehr GmbH (RNV) network. During the trial, a Bombardier-built tram, powered entirely by its PRIMOVE battery in combination with BOMBARDIER MITRAC propulsion equipment, completed a trip of over 40 kilometres in catenary-free operation (CFO).
The first transport authority to do so, RNV began using energy storage systems in 2009 and has integrated this technology into 30 of their trams. This previous generation of SuperCaps energy storage provided sufficient energy for short CFO distances. However, the latest generation of Bombardier's PRIMOVE battery system has been specifically developed for use with CFO where greater distances need to be covered.
The PRIMOVE battery and MITRAC propulsion equipment combination has been in successful revenue service on the Hexi line in Nanjing, China since August 2014. These six trams, built by CSR Puzhen under Bombardier license, operate without overhead cables on 90 per cent of the lines. The batteries are charged seamlessly during passenger service via the pantograph, statically at tram stops, and dynamically during acceleration. On this demanding route the CFO propulsion system has proven its suitability for almost any line worldwide.
The innovative PRIMOVE battery system builds upon Bombardier's many years of experience with energy storage systems by combining high power capacity and exceptional battery life with high reliability. They have been designed to maximize performance by using the latest developments in nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) Li-Ion cells. The advanced PRIMOVE thermal conditioning unit maintains the battery's ideal temperature and enables rapid charging and full braking energy recovery while extending their lifetime to up to ten years.

Life is difficult
I think Dr. Scott Peck summed it up best when he said "life is difficult . It is a great truth because when we truly see this truth we begin to transcend it"
I sense for many folks there is an expectation that because we give our life to Jesus are life will or can be constantly victorious without suffering and without difficulty
in the triumphal part of our church community suffering with Jesus is seen as weakness, lack of faith or even evidence of sin. If we pray for healing or miracles God will give us exactly what we ask for right now
my personal experience has been that God will do what ever God chooses to do precisely when he chooses to do it. And in the way he chooses to do it
it is presumptuous for me to tell God what to do. It is his prerogative to do as he pleases
there could be no resurrection without blood shed on Calvary. Jesus invites us to pick up our cross and carry it in order to be his disciple. And yet, Jesus could not carry his own cross on the way to Golgotha he fell under the weight of his own cross and needed someone else to carry it for him. So why does Jesus ask us to do something he himself could not do. Why, because my cross is so heavy that when I pick it up it will eventually cause me to fall flat on my face it will bring suffering and cause me to come to the end of myself. Only then in that place will I experience my most intimate encounter with Jesus as he personally lifts the burden of my cross from me
as we are humbled before the Lord he will lift us up
my life is in a constant process of healing. I have not experienced any presto magical healing miracles just a steady, constant healing process from death to life
from sorrow to joy
from despair to hope
Christians around me are sometimes impatient
as I experience his strength that flows from my obvious weakness and brokenness. Many are afraid to get close for fear that their own weakness might be revealed
sometimes I sit in church, bleeding all over my soul
I sit amongst the people of God, bleeding
what will they do with all this pain
with a move away from the red splattering
with a whisper about me and disgust
will they try to understand
or will they make bandages and gently cover my wounds
So much about Scripture is about lamentation
crying out to God in the midst of pain
how long, Lord, how long???
Miracles can and do happen, but not always and not to everyone in the way we expected to
I'm so glad Paul had that thorn in his flesh and I'm glad we don't know what it was
all I know is that he suffered with it all his life, God told him there was a divine purpose for his suffering
as long as God has a purpose for my suffering I can injure the healing process
life is difficult but my joy comes in knowing I am God's beloved right now
therefore, I shall fight the good fight until the day of complete healing comes
quotes number one the road less traveled by Scott Peck,
number two survivor prayers by Catherine Foote

Are there ready-made codes in jcreator of payroll system free of use?
Asked By 50 points N/A Posted on - 04/29/2013
I am currently taking a degree in Information Technology right now and part of the course requirement is to produce a payroll system made on jcreator – which I am not very familiar with, but I am knowledgeable in the JAVA language. Are there already ready-made codes in jcreator of payroll system that is free for reviewing and use? So that I would have a basis of what I would be dealing with on the duration of the study to complete this course requirement of mine. I am very much looking forward to seeing a valuable source(s) from anyone. Thank you very much for a positive response regarding this matter.

Sorry its been a while!
Hi There everyone in blog land! Sorry that it has been FOREVER since Ive added anything on here! I got wrapped up in Facebook and always seem to forget about my blog! Hope everyone is doing well. We are doing great and 2010 seems to be off to a great start. Hannah graduates this year! Hard to imagine! I feel so old! She was accepted to all the schools she has applied to! Johnson and Wales (where Emeril Lagasse studied), Culinary Institute of America In Hyde Park, New York, The Art Insitute in Arlington, VA, and The Cordon Bleu in Scottsdale, AZ. She wants to be a famous chef someday. Her first choice in Johnson and Wales and we are still waiting to hear about the money situation. If any of you out there want to fund her education we would NOT say no! haha. Katie just finished up her first year at Eastern Kentucky University and is now a Sophomore. She switched majors from Nursing to Criminal Justice so hopefully she will find what she wants to do with her life ..She is doing well and working as a waitress for two restaurants part time Ted's Montana Grill, and SteaknShake to help with tuition Daron just got orders to Bethesda Naval Hospital (Bethesda, Maryland about 45 minutes north of where we are now) in October..so ONE MORE MOVE AND THEN WE ARE DONE! We plan on retiring to Tennesee (close to his folks in Kentucky) after his 3 years are done. He will be the Hospitals health Inspector. I am working as a piano teacher to a bunch of wonderful students and loving it..and also working as a nanny again! The crazy snow storms here in Virginia seem to have finally passed by!!! HOPE YOU ARE ALL WELL! GOD BLESS!!!

Whistleblowing ex-Jihadi says ISIS 'planning coordinated ATTACKS in European cities'
ISIS is planning "coordinated attacks in European cities" according to a former Jihadi who escaped their clutches.
A former ISIS fighter known as Harry S escaped from the group in Syria and has made it to Germany.
ISIS killed 130 people in the attacks on Paris last month but he says they are planning a fresh series of attacks in several European cities.
Harry S told German police: "They want something that happens everywhere at the same time.
"All you need is to take a big knife, and go down to the streets and slaughter every infidel you encounter."
"All you need is to take a big knife, and go down to the streets and slaughter every infidel you encounter"Harry S
Harry S was arrested in Bremen in July after becoming disillusioned with the violence meted out by ISIS.
The 27-year-old son of Ghanaian immigrant parents, he became radicalised while in prison in Germany.
When he was freed he joined a Salafist group who were planning to send people to join the so-called Islamic State, also known as Daesh.
Despite having no passport and supposedly being under surveillance, Harry S was still able to make it to the Turkish-Syrian border.
He spent three months with the organisation and lived near Raqqa, the headquarters of the terror cult.
The gruelling regime – hundreds of sit-ups, hours of standing in the sun and forced marches lasting the entire day – took its toll.
But his main reason for living was his unhappiness at the random violence ISIS handed out.
When he returned to Germany he gave the security services information about Mohamed Mahmoud, an Austrian who Harry said was "one of the most disturbed people he had ever met".
He also met former Berlin rapper Denis Cuspert, who is now involved in ISIS propaganda.
Harry S said militants had sworn to carry out terrorist attacks in Germany and Austria and they hold German leader Angela Merkel responsible for "the blood of Muslims spilled in Afghanistan."
Harry S was in the background, holding an ISIS flag, when Jihadis executed two hostages and made their first video in German.
But his lawyer Udo Wurtz was quick to point out Harry S had not executed anybody and said: "He is a lackey who allowed himself to be misled by the propaganda of ISIS and who misled himself."
German Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere had said more than 750 Germans had joined IS and the number of potential attackers currently living in Germany was "higher than ever before".

thrift files | adventures in thrifting
Going for $500. No thank you. Found at Salvation Army.
So cute! Little 1950s milk glass bowls with a great orange design. Bought them. Found at Goodwill.
1960s set of floral chairs. Found at Salvation Army.
Fun woven hangers.
Brass unicorn statue. Found at Goodwill.
Vintage Souvenir Plate.
Little hobnail milk glass containers. Found at Goodwill.
Vintage smoked glass mirror. Found at Salvation Army.
Two vintage chairs upholstered in mustard velvet fabric and a funny little card table.
'til next time!
Question: do you know of any blogs who do these sort of thrift round ups? The best I can find is searching the "thriftscore" tag on instagram and even that is just okay at best. I love seeing what other people find/ happen upon while thrifting--it gives me motivation to get out there!

I have a coupleReplyDelete
they both are attracted to mid-century modern and scandinavian goods. I love seeing all the pretty things they thrift. & I love that they are from southern california bc it gives me hope that there's still good thrifting to be done here.
$500.00? was it a real Eames chair? because that's the only way I could see asking that amount at a thrift store. Pretty sure that's one of the highest prices I've heard of at a thrift store.ReplyDelete
I do some thrift round ups at my little blog
some other good ones are:
UNICORN!! HA ha.ReplyDelete
My mom makes hangers like that, its fun :)
Those chairs!!ReplyDelete
Jess at wellitsokay.blogspot.com does great "recently thrifted" roundups every once in a while.
oh man I want to find an Eames chair! I do re-caps of lots of the stuff I bring home but I like that you share some of the cool stuff you see but don't necessarily buy.ReplyDelete
Sometimes (very infrequently) i'll post about my op-shopping/trifting finds, but i really do enjoy reading/looking at these posts of yours. A good combination of amusement, envy and inspiration to go out and have a poke about myself!ReplyDelete
That unicorn would have come home with me! Cute orange bowls too. :) I used to post my thrift hauls on my blog more often but now you can find items I saw at flea markets, thrift stores & antique malls on my instagram feed (thriftaholic).ReplyDelete
My friend Rae shares her finds about once a week on her blog: http://raesock.blogspot.com
There's also a Thrift Share Monday here: http://apronthriftgirl.typepad.com/apron_thrift_girl/2013/03/thrift-share-monday-mod-sonomas-new-digs.html
How funny... I bought those exact hangers! SA in Costa Mesa, right? I remember seeing the green chairs out front. I grabbed the mid century dresser too. The Eames chair was horribly overpriced for a thrift shop. If I ever see you out and about I will have to say hello :)ReplyDelete
oh i love these kind of posts!ReplyDelete
thrift stores in france are just so tiny...
we do have another interesting thing- trash night! in every neighborhood there's an assigned day a week of taking out heavy trash.
it's a good excuse for a late night stroll and sometimes you find nice chairs,mirrors or other random things. i wanted to start documenting this, it seems like extreme thrifting!
I have a thrifting blog :) Already-loved.blogspot.com :)ReplyDelete
What's up?
*Had to turn word verification on (even though I personally hate it). I've been getting too many weird spambot comments lately :(

Last season the Chiefs put on what will be known as one of the best turnarounds in NFL history, however after improving their season win total by nine in one season, will the Chiefs start to slide some? A better question could be; "are their NFL Odds overvalued?"
Super Bowl (+5000)
Bovada sportsbook has some really good NFL Odds when it comes to futures, and while it may not help you much to actually place a wager there, it may help to look and see what Bovada has, before going line shopping elsewhere. I have found these numbers to be pretty sharp, and the Chiefs' Super Bowl NFL Odds are just that. At +5000, the Chiefs are behind the Chargers, a team they were better than last season, and despite the fact that San Diego got further in the playoffs, the Chiefs were the better team. However in 2014, I'm not sure if that's the case, and the NFL Odds show it. Kansas City lost a good number of starters on defense, and with their offense in question some, it may not be the best year to wager on the Chiefs. They had 11 wins last season, however this season Bovada has their season win total at 8.
If most sportsbooks are projecting that big of a drop in the Chiefs' season win totals, it's hard to imagine them being a solid betting pick in any sort of futures this offseason. Most books have them behind the Chargers in their division, and having to play Phillip Rivers and Peyton Manning in four of their 16 games is going to make it that much harder. On top of whom they have to play, the Chiefs lost some key parts of their 2013 playoff team. Brandon Albert, their best offensive lineman from last season is gone, and three of their defensive starters are also gone. Akeem Jordan is now in Washington, while Quintin Demps and Brandon Flowers went to New York and San Diego respectfully. Replacing those three guys is going to be very hard for the Chiefs. Although they may still threaten for a playoff spot in a weaker AFC, the Chiefs don't have the upside, or the element of surprise that worked so much in their favor in 2013.
AFC West (+550)
Last season the Chiefs were just a couple of wins away from beating out the Broncos for the AFC West, and while that may have been an anomaly, Kansas City will still have a pretty good team this season. In 2013, they were only 9-8 ATS including the playoffs, despite going 11-5 SU in the regular season. Even though they were tremendously undervalued throughout last season, they barely finished the season above .500 ATS. This season the public might overvalue the Chiefs early in the season because of their success in 2013. This entire division has a tough strength of schedule this season, and KC is no different. They are ranked 7th in the league in strength of schedule, and looking at their schedule, you'll know why. In their first five weeks, they have to play at Denver, San Francisco and Miami, while playing a home game against the Patriots in between. Needless to say, if you're thinking to take the Chiefs as your NFL Futures betting pick this season, I would rapidly start to change your mind. If they are above .500 this year, I will be surprised.

Recall at Debate number #1 the very first question was all about supporting the GOP nominee no matter who it is, Trump refused to make that pledge and the GOP and their candidates made a big fuss about Trump's refusal. It took many weeks & a lot of negotiation before Trump finally signed the pledge.
Since then Trump's has continued to rise to the point where people who presumed that the Donald was a flash in the pan now are taking the possibility of his election seriously and lo and behold suddenly we see GOP pundits singing a different tune.
The Weekly Standard Editor told CNN on Monday that he would be unable to back the real estate mogul.
"I doubt I'd support Donald. I doubt I'd support the Democrat," Kristol said. "I think I'd support getting someone good on the ballot as a third-party candidate."
and he's not alone:
Let me be very plain, I'm not going to vote for @RealDonaldTrump …He is unfit to be president @chucktodd @meetthepress @foxnewssunday #MTP
— George E. Pataki (@GovernorPataki) September 13, 2015
Now granted Pataki is polling only slightly better than I am but when it comes down to it If I'm Donald Trump I'm dancing in the streets over it and if I'm the tea party I'm grinning like a cat..
For the tea party it illustrates the double standard that exists for the establishment GOP. The Base is expected to go along with the nominee come what may but the reverse isn't true (see Dede Scozzafava)
It's also gold for Trump because it not only diminishes the rest of the GOP field and the party that made such a big fuss, but if the party actively tries to stop him it gives him the excuse to dump his promise.
Of course none of this really matters because John Nolte notes he's already switched to a general election campaign
Basically, he's telling Republican voters the unvarnished truth about where he disagrees with us on a number of bedrock conservative issues, and he's gambling that enough will stick him because they trust him more than the 15 others on existential issues such as immigration, border enforcement, lowering middle class taxes, simplifying the tax code, killing terrorists, and giving as good as he gets from the corrupt media.
He is also counting on the fact that The Base hates #GOPSmartSet enough that we are willing to go with a more moderate candidate if it means bringing down the corrupt, feckless, insulting, useless GOP Establishment.
Now I think this election is far from over, in fact it hasn't even started yet but sometimes as I look at the GOP & its supporters and see how they deal with their base, with Trump and more importantly with Trump's voters, I wonder if the label "The Stupid Party" should be the official name after all?

The week didn't start off on the best note for some people with April Fool's Day falling on Monday. Negin Farsad was definitely one of those people: "Happy April Fools Day, may you completely ruin someone's day and then completely resurrect it through the device of 'fooling.'" Ugh, we hate April Fool's Day too.
In other underwhelming news, Kimye donned the April Vogue cover this week, sufficiently shaking up the Twittersphere. While some were unhappy with the results, Noreen Malone definitely enjoyed the Kimye photoshoot: "Was gonna cancel my dentist appointment but then I realized the waiting room might have the Kimye Vogue." Even Kimye can't get us to go to the dentist.

While every one is thinking about the holidays. We've been busy booking up are summer tarpon season in Carrabelle and St George island Florida. We usually start fishing tarpon around May 15 in the beautiful Florida panhandle. Are season usually runs into September or until the cooler weather starts. We mostly fish for tarpon on fly but also have much success with conventional spin fishing anglers. Or Carrabelle St. George Island Tarpon season usually books up pretty fast. But we still have a few dates available if you're looking to come have a good time.
Where super excited to be heading back out to Venice Louisiana for are upcoming redfish season. The marshes of Sothern Louisana provide the perfect back drop for shallow water redfishing and is the perfect training grounds to keep your flyfishing skills on point during the cold winter months.
My clients really enjoy the days spent on the bow stalking the shallow flats and book there days almost a year in advance. There are a very few dates available in September this being one of the better months for big schools and topwater popper bites. Please contact me if your interested in fly fishing in Louisiana. I would love to share this truly unique and incredible experience with you.
Tags: flyfishing, Louisiana, redfish, guides, fishing trip , destination , monster fish, fishing, charter, topwater.
The summer months are here! We have a very limited number of tarpon dates left. June and July are the prime time for catching these giant tarpons. Carrabelle and St. George Island Florida have some of the best tarpon fishing along the Gulf Coast. So book your fishing trip today and let Capt. Cody Moody put you on them!

It's like being able to breathe again. The first inhale after resurfacing from riptides of confusion - or too many hours submerged in a bath that has long gone cold.
The benefit of slow is not lost on me. In an age where we're constantly romanticising being busy in every waking moment we have, it's important to recognise that pauses are necessary. You can't have a book or a movie where everything is go all the time. It's confusing. It presents an audience with hollow characters that rely on actions or circumstances to give their lives meaning. At the very base level, it's a sign of sub-par writing.
From experience, I know that I can recharge the proverbial batteries by throwing on some music. I've taught enough classes last term about the benefits of music and its effects on the brain to regurgitate it verbatim, and to also realise that having grown up with music around me, it's obvious that music is the first place I would go to try and muster some inspiration. But recently, I've been needing more visual sources. More images, more words, more moving pictures, more places that help me feed the starved organ that I rely on to keep me in check a lot. I've also been needing to talk through ideas and concepts with people a lot more.
I think it's also really important to remember that creating something original doesn't mean you can't draw inspiration from something already existing. Purely, purely original ideas are few and far between - they're rare jewels in a landscape of diamonds. Trying to find one every time you want to sit down and create causes burnout so quickly. Expecting to produce something unique, something that is 210% a-ok awesome every time, is also detrimental to creativity. For me, at least, I get so disheartened when something doesn't come out how I wanted, then I feel like not doing anything,
The last thing that I've found has really helped me out of this inspiration slump is taking a step back, and focusing on or starting new projects. I know having a lot of things on the go sounds like a bit of a convoluted, almost counterproductive idea, but I find it really does more good. Doing anything creative isn't a long-burning fuse; it's a collection of sparklers with the occasional rocket for the amazing. Focusing on smaller, or newer projects that are exciting or giving you something in the way of energy can really help realign and rebalance your viewpoint on whatever you lost motivation or inspiration on. I've pushed through blocks before, but at a cost that I don't feel like expending on things that are not deadline orientated, or that could end in resentment. So now, as a part of my own creative self care, I've decided that after weighing up whether pushing through would be beneficial, if it isn't then it's time to take a step back and work on something different.
[what I'm wearing
These photos were taken the same day/shoot as my 'on owning your flaws' post, so if you're wondering why I'm in a summer outfit when there is actual snow on the ground, also it's December, that is why.
I'm still loving this type of outfit, really. Tennis skirts are one of my absolute favourite things, they mostly look very flattering and they go with a wide range of styles. I'm really appreciating the way the Korean stores are styling them for the colder months. The one I'm wearing here is pink check, which I felt went really well with the disused vibe of Yongma Land. In my head, it felt softer than the grungier outfit, and slightly more playful. As is with a lot of Korean made skirts, they have 'safety shorts' sewn into the lining of the skirt, so I also felt way more comfortable than in my h&m skirt. I love that skirt, but sometimes it's a little awkward. I picked it up in the smaller Myeongdong branch of star101.
Ringer / baseball style tees are also a favourite of mine. They're super easy to throw on with everything; jeans? shorts? dungarees or pinafores? a-/h-/midi-skirts? you bet. I liked the compliment of the red with the pink, it's a bit more vibrant than the skirt but the torso being white breaks up too many similar colours. This is one I found in one of the smaller stores in Edae for under 10000W (so less than £8). They had a really lovely range of colours, and the quality of the fabric makes me regret not getting more.
This was also the first or second time I wore my bumble-bee trainers out. They're fab Gucci dupes, and they're really comfy. I probably paid more for them than I should have, considering I've seen them floating around on g-market for under 20000W (about £14) and I paid 30000W, but I've worn them enough to get the money that I spent back.
How, and where do you find inspiration? Or how do you motivate yourself in a creative slump? Let me know (pleaseeee)! Also, I'd love to hear your thoughts on this outfit / these photos. They're some of my favourites that I've ever got back.

Hi, I am 30 years old and I have been diagnosed endometriosis.
Since 12 years old I am suffering horrible pain during my cycle...
The specialist funded a 5 cm cyst in my ovary and refered me for a laparoscopy.
I had to take one day off of my work because I felt in really severe pain this month. I am worry about that... I am Spanish and I don't know if here in UK you need a letter of the doctor if you take time off for this condition.
Thanks very much!

Raised humanely
Our chickens are truly free range. Unlike commercial chicken they are not kept indoors in environmentally controlled houses throughout the duration of their lives. After hatching, we keep them indoors for about two weeks – as in nature, they need protection as chicks and they usually spend this time under their mother's wing. They are then given the opportunity to experience the outdoors, and are allowed to move around unfettered between the protective shelters and the outdoors. They have constant access to a natural diet, enjoy plenty of fresh air and sunshine, and they naturally migrate back to their shelters at night.
Stress free
A humanely treated chicken is a stress-free chicken. Commercial chickens, on the other hand, are raised in severely cramped quarters where they can hardly move. This leads to stress which can lead to disease, which in turn results in the need for extensive use of antibiotics.
Antibiotic growth-promoter free
We do not administer AGPs to our chickens. In commercial chickens, AGPs are routinely administered to control micro-organisms in the intestines which in turn results in an unnatural growth rate.
Never fed routine antibiotics
Humans were never intended to process the infinite list of chemicals presently found in the food chain and in medicines. To state that antibiotic and growth-enhancing chemical intervention in livestock is perfectly harmless in humans, is misleading and irresponsible. Over half the antibiotics fed to commercial chickens are identical to the ones administered to humans. Overuse of these antibiotics can lead to strains of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, opening the doors wide for superbugs to flourish. In the event of the rare occurrence of disease, medication is administered under strict supervision by our consulting veterinarian to prevent any suffering amongst diseased birds.
Fish meal and animal by-product free
In addition to being able to forage naturally while they roam outside, our chickens are only fed high quality, all-grain food which boosts their immune systems. No forms of poultry meal (blood, feathers and dead birds) or fish meal are ever permitted in their dietary intake.
Air chilled
To ensure end-product safety, our chickens are air chilled to reach a temperature where microbial growth is minimized. This process sees our chickens pass through an inline chiller, which cools the chicken down to below 4ºC. The air chiller runs below 0ºC and fans blow cold air through the cavity of the chicken to shorten the amount of time it takes to cool down. The end-product spends no more than 90 minutes inside the air chiller. During this time about 1.5% moisture is lost which improves the quality of the product since it reduces the risk of purging.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association can't seem to tell one Latina actress from another.
While ramping up for Thursday's Golden Globe nominations, the Golden Globes' official Twitter account identified presenter America Ferrera as "Jane the Virgin" actress Gina Rodriguez on two separate occasions.
The account captioned a photo of the Golden Globes nominations presenters with "The @goldenglobes noms are about to start! @HereIsGina @ChloeGMoretz @ImAngelaBasset #DenisQuaid #Golden Globes." But eagle-eyed users were quick to catch the gaffe:
Yeah, that's America Ferrera not Gina Rodriguez, official #GoldenGlobes Twitter account... pic.twitter.com/Rm3YeW9ywU
— Jarett Wieselman (@JarettSays) December 10, 2015
In another since-deleted tweet, the HFPA wrote, ".@HereIsGina is kicking off the @goldenglobes nominations announcements #GoldenGlobes."
Mislabeling an actress once? Awkward. Twice? Inexcusable. (That's America Ferrera, not Gina Rodriguez) pic.twitter.com/49ncWUatqt
— Jamie Lewis (@jlew8) December 10, 2015
The 31-year-old Ferrera stars in "Superstore," while Rodriguez, also 31, took home a Golden Globe last year for Best Actress in a TV Comedy. She was also nominated again this year.
The HFPA did not immediately return a request for comment.

Broken Nose (Nasal Fracture)
What Is It?
A broken nose is a fracture (crack or break) of the nasal bones. In most cases, there is also some damage to nearby nasal cartilage, particularly the nasal septum, the flexible partition that divides the left and right sides of the nose.
Because the nose has such a prominent and unprotected position in the center of the face, it is particularly vulnerable to impacts from accidents and violence. In mild fractures, the injury causes only some mild swelling and a brief nosebleed, so you may be unaware of the break unless your nose heals with a slight deformity. In severe fractures, however, the nose can be obviously deformed or shifted out of its normal midline position immediately after impact. There also may be a severe nosebleed, a blocked nostril or air-flow problems related to a deviated septum (a shift of the nasal septum toward the left or right nostril).

Process for young people with disabilities to obtain the certificate of disability
We will first define briefly, what the disability card is. It is a not pictured plastic card. It is an official public document, personal, non-transferable, which can be issued only by the Public Administration. It is necessary to present it together with the national identity card and it can only be obtained in case of final degree of disability. Therefore, it has permanent validity.
The first step, for the person concerned or his legal representative, to get the certificate is to contact the Centres for Care for Persons with Disabilities nearest to your location (the name varies according to the Autonomous Region). Both the Social Worker from the Department of social affairs in your community and your doctor can provide information about it.
Once you have found the centre, an appointment will be set with the evaluation team and the director of Centre for the recognition of the disability. You will be asked to fill in and carry an official application form and some additional documents to this meeting.
When the interested person goes to the appointment, he/she will meet the assessment and guidance team, which is composed of a doctor, a psychologist and a social worker. This team will undertake specific actions to determine the degree of disability. For instance, if the help of another person in everyday life is needed, if the applicant has difficulty in using public transport. They will determine whether the degree of disability must be checked regularly or not.
If the applicant disagrees with the outcome, he/ she will have 30 days to make a claim from the same day the report is delivered. It is important to keep a stamped copy of every document you submit.
Owning this certificate will give you grant rights to non-contributory pension, family allowance per child, admission guidance for centres, treatments, tax benefits: personal income tax, corporate income tax, successions and donation tax, value added tax (VAT), excise tax on certain means of transport (IEDMT) Tax on motor vehicles. Parking card for people with disabilities, Bonotaxi, requests for public aids, discounts in transportation and other support and services for the target group of people with disabilities at regional, municipal or state level.

In 1883 a devastating tornado hit Rochester, Minnesota. Dr. W.W. Mayo who was caring for injured victims requested the help of Catholic Sisters. When the crisis passes, Mother Alfred Moes (founder of the Sisters of St. Francis of Our Lady of Lourdes) discussed a dream she had with Dr. Mayo. The dream was about the two of them building a world-recognized hospital in Rochester. The resulting St. Mary's Hospital, opening in 1895, drew so many patients it spawned the Mayo clinic. The result was hundreds of basic medical innovations, but the foundation for all of them was the hard work, faith and frugality of the nuns. (Read more.)Share

Before Sam Raimi was the SPIDER-MAN king, he came out with DARKMAN, a new comic book hero-type character he created. Filled with comic fun, but enough dark action and badass characters to remind folks that comic book movies aren't just for kids, DARKMAN hits the spot on so many levels. With Academy Awards nominee Liam Neeson and winner Frances McDormand in the starring roles, it's not surprising the film works so well, as Rami and co. created characters you actually care for, while at the same time sporting that comic-book fun in terms of bad guys (Larry Drake is the man), action, and unique set-ups (the guy can create your face and wear it to impersonate you, for cripes sake!). Throw in the awesome score by the legendary Danny Elfman, and Raimi's signature cinematography, some great one-liners to use in your everyday life, and you have yourself one killer comic book hero that looks like a cross between the Phantom of the Opera and Freddy Krueger, and isn't fighting crime to just 'fight crime' but is doing so to extract his revenge on those who destroyed his life. While it feels a bit dated, it's still an entertaining ride, and it's fun to see where Raimi has pulled some of his more memorable SPIDER-MAN sequences from (ie, the construction zone from SPIDER-MAN 3).
DARKMAN II: THE RETURN OF DURANT (1994) - 2.5 Stars
Released direct to video, THE RETURN OF DURANT features a new director (Bradford May) and a new DARKMAN, this time played by Arnold Vosloo. For the most part, it's what you would expect from a STD sequel, although it sports some qualities that actually ranks it higher than most. For one, Drake returns as the villain- which was awesome, because he flippin' owned the part and was a fun character to keep around. Second, since DARKMAN's face is covered for the most part, having Vosloo be the leading role didn't really distract much, as he added a 'darker side' to the character. The violence here is more brutal than it's predecessor (the golf cart scene... awesome), although DARKMAN seems to be primarily obsessed with breaking the 99 minute barrier on his synthetic skin than fighting crime. Overall though, the film worked for what it was, and while nothing perfect- it was entertaining, and that's what's really important for a flick like this.
DARKMAN III: DIE DARKMAN DIE (1995) - 2 Stars
Filmed simultaneously with part II, DIE DARKMAN DIE is the lesser of the three films, mostly because the dialog and overall characters were silly, and it featured action and set ups that felt 'done before' in the series (revenge, wearing other people's faces, etc...). The highlight here is the new bad guy, played by Jeff Fahey. Fahey does such a great job creating a character you love to hate, that you almost want him to succeed in the end. He's so over the top, and so cool and crazy, that he was a nice contrast to Drake's more conservative badassness. The evil lady doctor, Fahey's wife and daughter, and Darkman's obsession with his work just added a silly element to this entry, making it way more cheesy than it should have been, even for a DARKMAN movie. A few scenes are repeated here from part II, which is blatantly obvious if you watch them back to back, but more importantly, it's the transformation of Darkman himself that left a somewhat sour taste in my mouth. Part III was great for the Fahey factor (if your a fan of the man, you owe yourself to watch him here), but lacked the originality of the first and the fun of the second.
Darkman started out as a scientist, then a 'freak' bent on revenge, then a guy who has accepted his fate and attempts to help others in need, to a guy who is obsessed with finding the cure to his synthetic skin, to a guy who doesn't really fight crime at all but is a whiny scientist with a bad complexion who only wants to work on his science and doesn't want to help anyone else unless his science is in jeopardy. Not really the transition I wanted to see or the direction the franchise should have gone (in my opinion, anyway), but it is what it is. We likely won't see another DARKMAN movie anytime soon, but if he were to come back, let's hope he leans more on the side of badass crime fighter than obsessed scientist.
Audio: DARKMAN is presented in a newly remastered 5.1 stereo track- which sounded awesome. The other two are slapped with 2.0 stereo surround. While I'm not a fan of the 2.0, it actually had a full sound quality that I couldn't complain about.

Gluten Free Pie Crust
2 Cups All Purpose Gluten Free Flour
1/2 Cup Palm Shortening, Coconut Oil (chilled), or Real Butter
1 Egg
2/3 Cup Water (approx. depending on consistency – add a little at a time – not too wet, not too dry.)
1/2 Teaspoon Salt (or season to taste)
2 Teaspoon Sugar (you can omit or sweeten additionally to taste)
Extra GF Flour or Tapioca Starch for Dusting
Mix together the Gluten Free Flour along with optional Salt & Sugar.
Blend in Shortening (or butter) with Pastry Tool or Fork, and mix until crumbly.
Add in Egg and mix until well incorporated – mixture will still be crumbly.
Add Water by stirring in 1 Tablespoon at a time until dough holds together for rolling – better a little moist, then too dry.
Cut Mixture in Half and roll into 2 balls (one for each crust or topping).
Shape dough balls into disc with floured hands and place onto a sheet of floured parchment or wax paper.
Cover with an additional sheet of parchment or wax paper. Roll crust out to slightly larger than your pie tin.
Remove top parchment/wax paper and Slip hand gently under the bottom paper to flip into pie tin… carefully peeling back the paper as you press it into the pan. Don't worry if it breaks apart a little, you can always press it together and it will look great!
Crimp edges of crust to make a decorative edge… or top with an additional crust layer after adding your pie filling.
Pierce bottom slightly with fork (and slit top layer with knife to vent).
Fill with your favorite recipe and bake.
Follow the pie recipe you are using for bake time and temperature.

Explains a lot:
Of course France would never in a thousand years have considered giving a British firm the contract to make its medals. Quite right, too. The reason why we have even discussed awarding such a contract to the French is that we believe, as they do not, in the absolute rule of law – the thing which distinguishes us from all the rest of Europe. So when we sign an agreement saying our markets are open, we mean it. And when they sign it, they don't. The only way we would ever prosper in the EU is if we sank to their standards.

Xanax vs. Ambien - A Comparison Of The Two Sleep Enhancing Medications
According to the review of the Medical Clinics of North America in the year 2010, insomnia is ranked first among common sleeping disorders. It is also commonly seen and reported in routine medical evaluations. To remedy this sleeping disorder and to keep it from recurring, sleeping pills are prescribed and administered to patients. Taking these kinds of medications could be very helpful. However, patients have to know which kind of medicine to take for their sleeping disorder, as these medicines could pose a health hazard if not properly handled.
Modern treatments for this sleeping disorder usually includes nonbenzodiazepines and benzodiazepines. When it comes to these kind of medications, the popular brand among the benzodiazepines is Xanax, and the nonbenzodiazepine counterpart is Ambien. Both are administered to patients with sleep problems, but they have unique characteristics. Read on and know which medication to take, if you are suffering chronic sleeplessness or anxiety.
Brief History
Xanax is otherwise known as alprazolam, was patented in the year 1976 by Upjohn (which later became a part of Pfizer, now a very famous company manufacturing various well-known medicines). This medication has properties that prevents anxiety, convulsion, and aids sedation as well. Xanax is FDA approved, and is well-prescribed for the treatment of sleeping disorders due to anxiety.
Ambien, on the other hand is also known as zolpidem. Synthelabo/Sanofi-Aventi patented this drug in the year 1983. This medication has similar characteristics with Xanax, but Ambien is approved and more known to address sleeping disorder in particular.
Classification And Its Popularity Among Consumers
Xanax belongs to the benzodiazepine group of drugs, together with Valium. Ambien on the other hand, is a nonbenzodiazepine together with Sonata and Lunesta.
Both of these sleep inducing medications belong to the top 200 list of the "Prescription Drug Info". In April 2010, Xanax became the most popular medication, while Ambien is on the 96th spot.
How It Works
Both Xanax and Ambien stimulate sleep by targeting the GABA receptor, a very important neurotransmitter situated in the CNS, or the central nervous system. These medicines work by stimulating the receptors in the brain, not in the spine, thus it allows patients to sleep comfortably without having to alter body coordination. Both these sleep inducing drugs increase GABA and reach the said receptor.
One thing to note about Ambien is its ability to enhance deep sleep. Xanax provide a relaxing sleep for those who are suffering from moderate to severe anxiety, however, it is not to aid deep sleep among those with difficulty in sleeping.
Xanax and Ambien both aids sleep, in cases when a person suffers
insomnia due to anxiety, or any other factors. However, both of these
medication is not recommended for long term use.
Should these medications be used for a long time, the patient will more likely develop dependence leading to tolerance, and withdrawal symptoms when stopped. Thus, Xanax and Ambien should be taken with medical supervision. The safe and recommended dose should be followed, as well as the recommended time frame for medication.
Effects Of Ambien And Xanax
Side effects of Ambien and Xanax are similar to each other. Both of these sleep inducing medication are associated with withdrawal symptoms when the patient becomes dependent and develops tolerance in any of these drugs. Xanax and Ambien is also reported to be one of the most commonly abused drugs, among others. Some suicide cases are reported to be caused by the withdrawal symptoms of both Ambien and Xanax.
Patients should take precaution in taking any of these medicines for the cure of anxiety, insomnia and other related disorders. It is encouraged that patients should always consult their doctor before taking a higher dose, or extending the treatment. Aside from some life-threatening withdrawal associated with these medicines, nonbenzodiazepines are also reported to be a potential cancer-causing agent. Both Xanax and Ambien are found to be carcinogenic in rats, and it could be true to humans as well.

OAKLAND PARK -- Although city elections are more than two months away, Robert Scallan already has announced his intention to run against Mayor Mary Laveratt and has charged her with using her title to influence city boards.
Scallan, who resigned from the city`s Planning and Zoning Board to run against Laveratt, said the mayor tries to sway board members and uses ``flagrant moves`` to control the issues.
``It is my belief that she is using these boards for her own political gains and that in doing so she is taking away the boards` need to be non-political in nature,`` Scallan said in a letter to City Manager J. Scott Miller.
Laveratt denied that she is overstepping her duties as mayor and said Scallan ``doesn`t understand the (city) charter.``
According to the city`s Code of Ordinances, the mayor is a non-voting member of all city advisory boards.
Scallan acknowledged the mayor`s role on advisory boards, but said, ``I believe Mrs. Laveratt has misinterpreted her role and is going far beyond her authority.``
Laveratt said she attends as many Planning and Zoning Board meetings as possible because it is the ``most powerful and most important (board) with respect to council action.``
She said she asks questions at most of the meetings.
Scallan said that on at least two occasions, Laveratt has ``sat on the dais and become a very active participant in the ongoing discussions.``
Miller said he has not received complaints from members of any other city advisory boards about Laveratt interfering with their duties.
Janet Black, chairwoman of the Board of Adjustment, said that although Laveratt does attend meetings, she has never sat on the dais or interfered with the board`s discussions.

Beauty Tip 26. Crucial cleansing
Clean skin is a prerequisite for smooth, youthful, healthy looking skin.
Unless you cleanse properly, you will never be blessed with the beautiful skin we're all striving for.
You simply must cleanse your face every night and every morning.
The morning clean removes surface oil and dead skin cells accumulated during sleep.
Despite what some people say, this needn't be anything more than a quick wipe with a damp face cloth.
Remember, too much rubbing, washing and cleansing is counterproductive and can cause more problems than it solves.
The night time cleanse, on the other hand, should be considerably more thorough.
You need to fully remove all the grime that has built up during the day, as well as stripping your face of all traces of make up before you go to bed.
Your skin repairs itself while you sleep. Any residue on your face hinders this process and leads to a whole host of skin problems.
