My Depression Was the Worst It Has Ever Been During My Pregnancy
What is a time of joy for many women was my darkest hour.
I can eat literally any of this stuff.
I wasn't one of those 10-year-olds on a diet. I was a fat kid and a chubby adolescent, but while I hated my expanding-spill body, I don't remember ever attempting to regulate my food intake as a solution. My internal logic seemed to be that since I was fat, I might as well eat whatever I want. It's not as if I had a figure to maintain.
When I was 18, I spent a few years on the Atkins diet and lost half my body weight, an event that is second probably only to getting sober in its positive effect on my life. For the first time, I felt in control of my eating and by extension, everything else. I got comfortable in my body and grew to love exercise, at one point bursting into joyful tears when a Pilates instructor complimented me on my form. I left my abusive high-school boyfriend. I bought a very short skirt.
I am incredibly grateful to that diet that changed my life. I know that some people consider low-carb diets unhealthy, but my feeling then and now was that the health benefits of going from morbidly obese to average weight outweighed concerns about eating too much meat or whatever. I was also eating vegetables and going to the gym regularly for the first time. Consuming a lot of protein naturally managed my hunger and freed me from the compulsive eating I'd always felt enslaved by. For me, then, dieting was a fulfilling and life-changing choice.
That was then and this is now. While I have maintained the majority of my weight loss since college, for years I have fought a losing battle with the same 20 pounds. At any given point in the last 8 years, I have weighed somewhere between 165 and 185 pounds. During all that time I have been either "on a diet" and severely restricting my calories, or "off my diet," which in effect means I am in full-on binge mode and possibly purging.
Because a diet worked so well for me once, I have considered my compulsive eating the problem and adhering to a diet the solution. Not until now have I been emotionally able to see that my dieting is actually part of the binge cycle. Like this:
From "Bulimia: A Guide to Recovery" by Lindsey Hall and Leigh Cohn
My bulimia has always been at subclinical levels -- I tend to purge after eating regular or slightly large meals, not after bingeing, and less frequently than the diagnostic requirement of at least once a week for 3 months. Because of this, it's been easy for me to consider my eating disorder inactive most of the time.
But, if I consider the above diagram, from "Bulimia: A Guide to Recovery," throwing up is not the only bulimic behavior I engage in. My yo-yo dieting is just as much a part of the cycle as sticking my finger down my throat.
I usually start any major life change with research, so over the weekend I bought a lot of books, one of which identifies the four basic rules that "normal" eaters follow: 1. eating when hungry. 2. choosing satisfying foods. 3. eating with awareness and enjoyment and 4. stopping when satisfied. Is that definition as mind-blowing to you as it is to me? Do people actually live this way? Can I?
I didn't really throw away my diet books, I put them on the free table.
The first step, according to "When Women Stop Hating Their Bodies," by Jane R. Hirschmann and Carol H. Munter, which is a great resource for de-Dieting your life, is to "legalize" all food. The career dieter's mind is at this point probably a complicated and contradictory web of food rules regarding fat, sugar and carbohydrates, and a large collection of foods that are designated as "bad" and therefore off-limits. When you legalize food, you assign all foods an equal psychological value -- nothing is forbidden, no food has a moral value.
In all the time that we have been together, my fiance and I have never eaten at an Italian restaurant. If asked, my fiance would tell you that I don't like pasta. I have been telling people the same thing for so long that I believed it to be the truth. Guys, I fucking love pasta.
I know because I ordered some, for the first time in a decade, on Saturday night. It was penne with goat cheese, sundried tomatoes and pine nuts, and it was delicious. I ate it until I was physically satisfied, a serving that amounted to a fraction of the oversize restaurant portion. I saved the rest, reminding myself that I could eat that same pasta again anytime I wanted to in the future.
And this is how I plan to proceed. I will do my best to wait until I am physiologically hungry to eat. When I am sure I am hungry, I will attempt to find the perfect match between my hunger and what I want to eat. I will eat slowly and mindfully and attempt to stop when I am satisfied.
The next day, I woke up around 6:30 and didn't feel hungry until about 8, when I ate an ice cream sandwich because that's what sounded good to me. My fiance and I took the baby on a 3-mile walk, and around 10:00 am we were both starving. I closed my eyes and checked in with myself and decided that I wanted mozarella cheese. We passed a bakery, where I stopped and bought fresh-baked bread.
BREAD, ya'll!
At the grocery store, I purchased the cheese (full-fat), along with a tomato and an avocado (also high in fat) which I used to make a FORBIDDEN FOOD sandwich. It tasted fucking incredible. I ate about 3/4 of it, before announcing "I'm full!" to my boyfriend like I'd just discovered something really interesting instead of something a baby understands how to do inherently. (Seriously, babies are inspiring on this matter. Little dude doesn't care how much formula is in the bottle; when he's done, he's done. Of course, formula also kind of sucks.)
What became clear to me immediately is that my eating is completely detached from my hunger, that in fact the hardest part so far is telling when I am, in fact, actually hungry. The second hardest part is figuring out what I want to eat, and the third hardest part is knowing when to stop. So it's all the hardest part. But I expect it will get easier with practice.
There's a lot more to the process of "demand feeding," as Hirschmann and Munter call it. If you're interested in actually trying it, I suggest buying the book.
The most important thing is that the point of all this is NOT to lose weight. In fact, in order for it to work, you have to accept the fact that you may never lose another pound. What should happen as you get better at eating purely to satisfy your hunger is that your weight will settle at its natural point -- which could be smaller, larger, or the same as your current size.
The idea is to learn to eat according to what's going on inside you -- how empty or full you feel -- rather than what's going on outside you -- how thin or fat you look. And then accepting the results. To learn to trust your body instead of fighting it.
So I canceled my Weight Watchers subscription, clicking through several technological roadblocks designed to get me to rethink my decision, and I came to work with a bag full of that crumbly bread, fresh goat cheese, almonds and a Hostess cupcake. I may eat some of it. I may eat all of it. I may eat something else entirely. I'll keep you posted.
@msemilymccombs will be eating whatever she wants on Twitter.

It was another interesting year for the iodine industry regarding price, supply, and demand. Initial 2013 prices were quoted at the same price as fourth quarter of 2012. Initially it seemed like this was going to be acceptable to buyers, but then large contract buyers begin to put up resistance to paying 2012's historically high prices, which were based on iodine shortages, when it was clear that shortages themselves were history. By the beginning of February, several suppliers were quoting prices lower than their December 2012 pricing. This price erosion continued through June of this year, and eventually all suppliers lowered prices. The amount of the decrease has depended upon the supplier's point of view about their inventory levels and desired income, as well as the quality of the iodine. In a new twist to the Chilean iodine market, some material currently being offered by a few Chilean mines is below traditional quality standards, and the sale price reflects this lower quality. This type of material is deemed unacceptable for use in complex products made by some manufacturers. Prices for this lower grade iodine are considerably less expensive and are a real benefit to those companies that can use it.
As the year has progressed, supply and demand have become very stable; perhaps even out of balance in which there is an over supply of iodine. It is difficult to state with certainty that excessive inventory exists, but if additional price decreases occur in the fourth quarter, it would tend to support that concept. The newest mining company in Chile is still not at 100% capacity but is headed in that direction. Other mining companies seem to be producing at full capacity while one older mine that was expected to close has not. Plus all the small mining companies have managed to stay open even as prices have fallen. Most buyers of iodine are being offered all the material they want, and requests for additional needs are not being declined by Chilean suppliers. Some mining companies have fought to keep prices higher, for obvious reasons, but sometimes less obvious ones. In an attempt to rebuild inventories, at least one mining company has purposefully stated they want to limit sales and build up safety stock to levels they carried prior to the Japanese earthquake and tsunami.
Japan continued on in 2013 with the same very steady course with iodine that it has been on for over a decade: Prices substantially lower than Chile, and a declining supply. It will be many years, if ever, before Japan stops being considered an influence in the iodine market. At the same time, not one company with growth plans for their iodine-related products can count on Japan to help them gain that growth. Because of the steady drop in supply, many companies that were using Japanese iodine exclusively ten years ago now have to buy a fair share of their needs from Chile. One thing that buyers can appreciate about Japanese iodine: Extra profits. Most buyers of Japanese iodine mark up or base their iodine products as though they were made with iodine purchased from Chile. This has, in a nutshell, made some large buyers of Japanese iodine literally tens of millions of dollars in extra profits during the iodine crisis. As Chilean prices decline closer to current Japanese prices, this extra profit is substantially less, but with the differential still large, it is still a significant amount of extra profit.
As 2013 ends, the question inevitably comes up: What about next year? Will prices continue to fall and supply continue to grow due to Chile's output increase? At this point in time, it would be very difficult to answer that question. The newest mining company in Chile is known simply as "Algorta" and throughout 2013 they have moved along in production capacity. At the same time, other Chilean suppliers have added to their output as well, but global iodine demand continues to be strong. Third generation flat screens appear likely to continue to contain some iodides. Medical uses of iodine, including x-ray contrast media, remain strong. And some companies that had minimized their use of iodine and iodine compounds in 2011 and 2012 due to uncertainty of supply, have come back into the market. It is not in the best interest of any Chilean producer for prices to decline further, and most buyers seem to have successfully worked higher prices for iodine into their market places.
Only a crystal ball could tell us what will happen in 2014.

On the first day back at school after the war, Ali Hussein Mugamis ran out into the playground and saw a shiny metal object. He remembers nothing else. As the 12-year-old lies in Basra Public Hospital in southern Iraq, a doctor is telling his father that the four fingers of one hand have been amputated, that there is shrapnel in his brain and thighs, and that it may not be possible to save one of his legs.
On the ward, the doctor points to another boy whose leg has become gangrenous. "Better safe than sorry," he explains, although there is no anaesthetic left and the operation will be expensive.
Suddenly, from outside, we hear the terrible sound of wailing. A patient runs in to say that nine boys have been killed and seven wounded while playing with an Iraqi rocket. Like many Iraqis, they were probably planning to take out the fuel and sell it for use in cooking stoves.
On the other side of town, at the mothers and children hospital, it is water rather than old military hardware that is killing children. Parents are forced to beg for basic rehydration sachets to treat chronic diarrhoea.
Mustafa is 18 months old; since catching a stomach bug six weeks ago, he has eaten no solids. The area where he lives has had no running water for nearly two months; he is now suffering several epileptic fits a day. His mother has stood by his bedside all this time, guarding one of the few remaining drips. Everyone in Basra is terrified of cholera.
Back in Kuwait, two dozen television camera crews have lined up to capture the first tentative steps of Ali Ismaeel Abas, the boy who lost both his family and his arms in an allied bombing raid. But Ali was airlifted to safety from Baghdad - and he remains an exception.
Relatively few people were killed and injured in the war; it is the aftermath - the unexploded ordnance, the lack of water and electricity, the sewage spewing out around the cities - that is terrifying people in the south. Looters have ransacked the water and sewage plants, often taking even the bricks.
This comes on top of three wars, 24 years of dictatorship and 12 years of sanctions. More than 80 per cent of the population were dependent on hand-outs from the oil for food programme, and most were employed by the government.
For two months these people have received no food or salaries. Now the only currency is the corrugated iron torn from the roofs of government buildings, the light bulbs pilfered from schools and the sinks from orphanages - all sold for knock-down prices on the looters' market.
The aid agencies say we are witnessing a humanitarian disaster, and Unicef has launched its largest appeal, asking for £167 million.
An entire country is living on the brink. The problems start as you cross the border from Kuwait. Desperate farmers have shot holes in the main aqueduct from Basra, tapping the water every few hundred yards.
Locals with donkey carts, children and goats are all helping themselves, swimming in puddles in the desert. By the time the water reaches the town of Safwan it is a trickle. At the health clinic there is not enough left to make a glass of tea.
Unicef already has 67 tankers coming from Kuwait each day, filled with water, but these service less than 10 per cent of the local population. Further down the road an ice factory has been looted and people are carting off chunks for their families.
Before we enter Basra, Jubbar Al Haiday, the former chief engineer of Basra's water department, takes us to one of the pumping stations. He is crying quietly as he wades through the devastation. Every bolt and screw has been taken, the wiring has been stripped out - even the tiles in the lavatory have been prised off. "I have no workers left. I am paying guards out of my own savings," he says. Forty per cent of Basra still has no water.
With him is the director of the sewage department, Maitham Jarella Saboom, who has 116 sewage pumping stations. Less than a third are working. He recently discovered a group of looters using a stolen crane to lift the roof off a water treatment plant. Of his 200 workers only 10 have turned up for work since the war.
Their cars and lorries have been stolen, and they are too scared to carry their tools with them on their carts. "I have no desk in my office, no chair, no records - yet they ask me to stop cholera breaking out," he says.
He takes us to a water treatment plant surrounded by miles of hardened sewage, cracking under the sun. There are children running over it. The sewage director explains that they have only one week's chlorine left to disinfect the water for five million people in the south.
The locals claim that the armed forces have taken it for their swimming pools, but it is the British who have supplied Mr Saboom with what little he has.
The consequences of the lack of clean water are most apparent in the Ibu Ghazuau hospital for mothers and children in Basra. Here, the wards are crammed with children suffering from diarrhoea, most of them being held in their mothers' arms until a bed becomes available.
Zaira is eighteen months old. Her family comes from the Iran/Iraq border, which is littered with depleted uranium tips. Her mother tells us that she suffered six miscarriages before having Zaira - her only child - who has congenital deformities. The baby became so ill that she refused to breastfeed, so her mother gave her powdered baby milk - and now Zaira has diarrhoea and violent stomach cramps.
In the cancer ward children lie limply on their beds. There are no therapies for them, only pain killers. Unicef hands out milk powder, nutritional biscuits and basic drugs.
Dr Abd Al Kareen Subber, the consultant gynaecologist, takes us to the maternity wards. "We have no ultrasound, no monitoring of labour," he explains.
He is visiting two sisters from the countryside. One went into labour the day the war ended. After two days of agony, she realised that she must reach a hospital - but she had no transport. "By the time she arrived, her uterus had burst," says the doctor. "The child died, but I think we will save her." He has just performed a caesarean on her sister-in-law, who is clutching her new baby.
In the premature babies unit there are still four incubators. The babies are so tiny that the smallest nappies reach their chins. They have no tubes on them - they were all stolen.
"We lost 48 out of 92 premature babies in April. Those that survived did so without the aid of oxygen - one made it through on black, sugary tea.
"We have few nurses left. Most avoid the premature unit: they are frightened of staying on the isolation wards alone because of looters, so these babies are left by themselves in the middle of the night."
The manager of the hospital, Dr Mouhammed Nasir, says: "Contaminated baby milk and ice-cream are the killers, and children being washed. Just one accidental sip of water can kill a small child."
To find out what is happening in the schools, we go past the burning polytechnic to the ministry of education, which has already been gutted. Seven-year-olds are still scavenging for bits of wire, and the concrete floors are carpeted with old exam papers. One is for an English exam: "Re-write in cursive: The boy pats the dog. The Iraqi army is ready to liberate Palestine."
A group of armed men run in screaming at us. It turns out that they think we are looters. They used to work at the ministry as clerks, and have banded together to save the remnants of their office. Many of the 700 schools in Basra have also been looted. Unicef is trying to deliver as many "schools in a box" as it can - crates packed with paper, pencils, blackboard paint and chalk.
At Yomoma girls' school, a teacher points to the sweating seven-year-olds, and cries: "We have no fans, no milk or water for the children. They are being treated like animals going to market, not pupils receiving an education. We are the second richest oil country in the world, but we have nothing - it is madness."
The Americans are planning to restructure the curriculum but, at the moment, that is merely a matter of tearing out pages. What people need now are water supplies, lavatories, desks and teachers. Each school is operating on two-hour shifts; 25 per cent of children do not receive any education.
The British Army is doing its best. It cannot guard all 700 schools but Sgt Rachel Webster from the Royal Military Police has raised funds to re-decorate Khadiga girls' school, which sits next to the bombed-out ministry of information and the offices of the secret police. She is even equipping it with a library and swings, donated by the troops.
"It's my hobby," she explains. "It takes my mind off my day job, gathering criminal intelligence about the looting, kidnapping and murder."
This is a crucial period for the people of Iraq. The aid agencies have just returned. In Basra, the Armed Forces have re-recruited the police; neighbours are beginning to band together to protect their amenities. Workers are trickling back.
It is easy to blame the Iraqis for destroying their own future, but much of the looting has occurred as a result of a long dictatorship and because almost everyone has now lost his or her job. I ask one man why he was carting off paving stones.
"Because Saddam took what was ours, so we are taking it back," he replies. Outside the United Nations office, soldiers hold back more than 1,000 people, clutching their CVs, all screaming for jobs.
Some Iraqis have been extraordinary. At one orphanage, Dr Mohamed Ghali, a former university lecturer in biology, moved in to help protect the boys after looters threw in grenades and ransacked the home. "I am ashamed of what my neighbours have done to this place," he says. He goes begging for the boys' food every morning, and for mattresses.
The agencies' first priority is to get the water and sewage systems working and to provide food and oral rehydration sachets for the most vulnerable. At the same time, they are trying to re-equip the hospitals and to start clearing the mines, cluster bombs and ammunition dumps. The schools are next on the list.
Two of the Unicef workers, from Somalia and Sudan, tell us: "It is even worse than Somalia and Sudan. But this country has the chance of a future, if we can get it right. It is like a rich man who has trashed his palace - at least the plot of land on which we have to build is rich with oil."

In a hearing held by a House subcommittee Thursday, trade groups representing technology companies shared their views on a point of keen interest to banks: whether or not Congress should turn the hodgepodge network of existing state laws on data breaches into one, national law.
Forty-six states have their own data breach notification laws. While in principle these laws are similar (sensitive customer data must be encrypted and/or redacted; customers must be notified if their data might have been viewable by an unauthorized party), no two state data breach laws are exactly the same and many conflict with each other. A resident of one state who does business in another can trigger different rules around when and how a business that suffers a data breach must notify customers about it.
Citi recently bumped against these state laws when it discovered that a software program it was using to redact customer data from bankruptcy documents had a vulnerability: a savvy user could use another software program to undo the redaction. The risk was slight - a hacker would have to know the documents exist in a government database, know the version of software used to create them, and own and be an experienced user of the software that could unveil the protected information. But Citi reported and addressed it with breach notifications and free credit monitoring for affected customers.
Arguing for a national data breach law, Dan Liutikas, chief legal officer of technology vendor group CompTIA, started on a personal note. "I was born to immigrant parents from Lithuania," he said. "My father learned how to fix televisions for a national retailer until eventually opening his own television repair shop and then later starting a construction business. My mother waited tables at restaurants and then started her own restaurants, delis and banquet halls. Both lived the American dream by being entrepreneurial and starting their own small businesses. From my own experience I submit that small business owners don't want handouts. They just want a fair shot at pursuing the American dream. ..That means eliminating unnecessary barriers to entry, such as redundant and burdensome regulations."
Liutikas believes a new, national law would reduce the burden of data breach rules. "With the increasingly mobile and decentralized nature of our economy and data storage and dissemination technologies, there is a growing and exceptionally strong case to be made for the creation of a national data breach notification framework that supersedes state data breach laws," he said in his testimony.
Liutikas also recommended that Congress and the FTC not mandate specific technology or methods for data security practices. "The environment for data security is constantly evolving, so any regulation should focus on promoting validated industry standards for security, rather than a single quickly outdated solution," he pointed out.
Kevin Richards, senior vice president of federal government affairs at TechAmerica, another technology company association, also supported the idea of a national law but cautioned that it shouldn't go too far.
"Any federal framework should provide for breach notification when there is, in fact, only a significant risk that identity theft has or is likely to occur," he said. Over-notification of customers could cause customers to become numb and encourage fraud and phishing scams, he said. He also called for a clearer definition of personally identifiable information and, like Liutikas, spoke against mandating specific technologies.

For all intents and purposes, the story of the Plaza Residences was finished a long time ago, but the state's highest court has written a disappointing epilogue.
The Plaza was to be a 22-story condo building in Columbia's Town Center. Supporters of the project hailed its potential for energizing the local economy and broadening the county's tax base. Opponents argued it would overwhelm roads, schools and the sewers and would constitute a lakefront eyesore.
The economic nosedive of three years ago and the troubles of the developer, WCI Communities, effectively ended the debate. WCI scrapped the project and put the land up for sale. Meanwhile, the County Council passed comprehensive legislation governing the redevelopment of Town Center, including a provision capping the height of buildings at nine stories. That provision would apply to any future development on the erstwhile Plaza site.

IHTM: I Tried a Skincare Product That Jacked Up My Skin Barrier So Here's How I Handled It
I basically called my mom for help. Except when I say mom, I mean an esthetician.
I've always found Asian beauty products intriguing. Korean brands are pretty easy to find in Vancouver, and sometimes I drop by my local T & T Supermarket just to check out the beauty aisle. But I never buy anything, because I usually can't tell what a product's for, or how to use it. I can't read Korean, and as a discerning beauty nerd, I want to know as much as possible about a product before I buy it. Plus, imports are expensive, so I only experiment when I really can't resist the packaging.
I have the same problem with retail sites. And even when there's English text, I still find the product names and categories confusing. Just what is a "Timeless Placenta Bound Emulsion" and how is it different from the "Timeless Placenta Bound Cream"? Is placenta a good choice for my oily skin? This the point where I just give up and buy a more familiar product.
That is, until I read Korean Beauty Secrets. This book has opened up a new frontier of consumerism for me. (More expensive jars of goo to put on my face! Wheee!)
Written by two beauty bloggers, Kerry Thompson (from Skin & Tonics) and Coco Park (founder of The Beauty Wolf and xoJane contributor), Korean Beauty Secrets is a comprehensive guide to Korean makeup and skincare. It's perfect for anyone who doesn't want to spend hours reading through blogs or the Asian Skincare Subreddit. If you're already a Korean beauty fan, reading this book will be like reading a giant issue of Allure; it's light but detailed, and stuffed with specific product recommendations.
Korean Beauty Secrets covers a lot of ground, including:
Thompson and Park take care to explain how products will work on a variety of skin tones and types (there's plenty here for women of color). This book doesn't get into bigger ideas about Korean beauty culture, though, and the authors don't really comment on Korean beauty standards, though they do attempt to explain the common use of the word "whitening" (supposedly, it's interchangeable with "brightening" and refers to an even skin tone without hyperpigmentation or dark marks).
They also don't acknowledge the excessive number of products you need to create an optimal Korean skincare routine. (I'm just saying, I totally understand why the Korean government is pushing to make beauty products one of the country's biggest exports). This isn't really a criticism, though—Korean Beauty Secrets is trying to be a practical guide, and it succeeds. But if someone wants to write a deeper book on the subject, I'd be all over it. (In the meantime, I'll just re-read this New Yorker article).
When I finished Korean Beauty Secrets, I felt really informed, if a little wary of 10-step routines and endless product layering. (Seriously, how do you wear all these product layers and not feel sticky?) I don't think I'm going to dive head-on into K-beauty just yet, but I've started to look for products that will suit my skin. In fact, I've already placed an order for Snail Bee Essence…

If one goes through these, one will find that Late Sri Chakraborty not only possessed the novel ideas and ideals in the field of rural development but also translated them into practice. There is no branch of rural reconstruction programme which was not enlightened by his thoughts. During his tenure of office, the Lokashiksha Parishad with the blessings of the Headquarters took up one after another numerous projects like Rural Development Programme, Urban Development Scheme, specially Slum Dwellersa Rehabilitation, Child Care, Mothersa Health Care, Adult Education, Eradication of illiteracy, Rural Afforestation, Family planning, Rural Banking, Panchayeti Raj and what not? His innovative ideas in these fields drew attention of different state Governments and the Central Government. They invited him as an expert or resource person for successful implementation of their programme. Even a few foreign countries such as Pakistan, Bangladesh, Canada, Germany, Israel, Srilanka and other countries invited him and sought his assistance in their endeavour of rural development. It may be noted in this connection that Sri Chakraborty never imposed his decision on others. He always motivated the field workers so as to act and understand things on their own initiative and thus developed leadership from the grass-root level. Sri Chakraborty also made valuable contributions to the National Planning Programme. His achievements in various fields of rural and urban development received appreciation from different international organisations like unesco, unicef, who, etc. It will not be an exaggeration to say that if his thoughts and ideas referred to various treatises published in this book would have been implemented on state and national level, then swamijias dream of a aNew Indiaa might have been a reality. This book will certainly be a source of inspiration to all social workers and research scholars who have been working in this field. This will also be a rich collection for all rural and urban libraries and a guideline for all project officers working in different fields of rural and urban developement programme.Selected Papers And Essays Shib Shankar Chakraborty Madan Mohan Acharya Asst.

For months former Strikeforce featherweight champ Cristiane Santos claimed she would be unable to meet rival Ronda Rousey at 135 pounds for reasons out of her control, citing advice from a doctor who'd stated cutting that much weight posed risks to her long-term health. However, when rumors started swirling surrounding the UFC's creation of a bantamweight division to suit Rousey, "Cyborg" did an about face and said she might be able to drop down after all.
Though a super-fight between the two talented females has yet to materialize, Santos recently implied the UFC was already knocking on her door to make the match-up a reality. In fact, she nearly got the nod to face Rousey this coming February before Liz Carmouche was signed to the scrap.
"It was too little time to cut that much weight," explained the Brazilian bomber in a conversation with Sherdog on why she couldn't accept the bout. "I'm heavy, I always was. When I started fighting I weighed 154 pounds, and now I'm about 160 pounds without fighting. Dana already said he will just have the bantamweight division for now. I understand, there are not that many fighters in my division. So I'll make the effort to cut down. Who does not want to fight in the UFC?"
Santos also made it a point to state she was eager to fight Rousey and end talk about her being intimidated by the unbeaten title-holder.
"She keeps saying that I'm running, but (anyone) who knows me knows that I never run from anyone. If it was up to 145 pounds, I would fight tomorrow," the 10-1 Santos said confidently. "But it's not that way, and to cut down to 135 pounds I have to follow a plan just right. It's better for me to fight at bantamweight because the division has more fighters. I'm looking for the right diet, the best way to lose that weight. I'll make that fight with Ronda happen. I'll give my best."

As He Once Sang
One love, one heart.
Let's get together, as he once sang.
And don't worry about a thing,
because every little thing will be alright.
Live your life and stir it up,
as he once sang, little darling.
Good friends you have and
good friends you've lost.
In this great future, you cant forget you past,
but you can forgive.
So, dry your tears and we'll help you sing
these redemption songs.
Emancipate yourselves, as he once said.
Because, although he is dead, we can still sing.
"Let's get together and feel alright."
As he once sang.

It's time to get the ball rolling once again
By ALLON SINAI
With Israeli Premier League set to kick off, here is a team-by-team preview of what to look out for at both ends of the table.
After a tumultuous summer, the Israeli Premier League makes its long-awaited return this weekend.
Reigning-champion Maccabi Haifa, the new-look Hapoel Tel Aviv and the rejuvenated Maccabi Tel Aviv are once more the favorites to claim the title, while the likes of Betar Jerusalem and Hapoel Petah Tikva are just happy to still be in existence and part of the top-flight.
After two seasons, normality returns to the Premier League, with the Israel Football Association dropping the controversial point-halving format and eliminating the mid-table playoff.
The IFA also decided to cut the league from 16 to 14 teams for the 2012/13 campaign, with three teams to be relegated this season and only one to gain promotion from the National League.
Deputy Sports Editor Allon Sinai takes a look at the 16 teams which will be battling it out for glory over the next nine months.
(Teams listed in order of last season's finish)
Despite losing four key players last summer, Haifa consolidated its position as the benchmark in Israeli soccer, claiming its fifth championship in eight seasons and laying to rest the ghosts of dropping the title to Hapoel Tel Aviv in the final seconds of the previous campaign.
The Greens will have to replace significant starters once more this season, with Lior Rafaelov (Club Brugge) and striker Tomer Hemed (RCD Mallorca) leaving for the continent and defender Arik Benado retiring.
After reaching the Champions League playoffs and ensuring itself a long continental campaign – as it will play in the Europa League group stage even if it goes out to KRC Genk – Haifa went on a buying spree, signing midfielder Tamir Cohen, defender Itzik Cohen and striker Alon Turgeman within 48 hours.
The Greens added nine players in total to their squad and no one will be able to discount underrated coach Elisha Levy again if Haifa manages to become the first Israeli side to win the championship while playing in European competition deep into the winter.
Player to watch out for: Dela Yampolsky.
After making his overdue breakthrough at Maccabi Netanya last season, the 23-yearold midfielder will be looking to establish his place as one of the league's top players in the coming campaign.
Titles: Championships – 12 (1983/84, 1984/85, 1988/89, 1990/91, 1993/94, 2000/01, 2001/02, 2003/04, 2004/05, 2005/06, 2008/09, 2010/11). State Cups – 5 (1962, 1991, 1993, 1995, 1998).
Best case: After guiding Haifa to its third title in four seasons, Levy is finally given more than a one-year contract extension by owner Jacob Shahar.
Worst case: Levy's time at Kiryat Eliezer comes to an end after the Greens come up short in the title race.
Not much is left of the Hapoel team which in the past two seasons took a league title, two State Cups and also reached the Champions League group stage for the first time in club history.
New coach Dror Kashtan will have to mold a new team after Eran Zahavi (Palermo), Danny Bondarv (Volga Nizhny Novgorod), Gili Vermut (Kaiserslautern), Itai Shechter (Kaiserslautern), Ben Sahar (AJ Auxerre) and Vincent Enyeama (Lille) all left for the continent this summer.
Kashtan may be the most decorated coach in Israeli soccer history, but he has still got his work cut out for him if he's to fill the big shoes left by Eli Gutman.
After winning the ownership battle with Moni Harel, Eli Tabib opened his pockets to sign talented striker Omer Damari from Maccabi Petah Tikva, Nigerian midfielder Nosa Igiebor and goalkeeper Apoula Edel.
However, a disappointing preseason and an embarrassing 2-1 defeat to Liechtenstein's FC Vaduz in the Europa League mean there are plenty of question marks hanging over Hapoel as it embarks on a new era.
Player to watch out for: Mahmoud Abbas.
The 23-year-old namesake of the Palestinian Authority President showed plenty of promise at Hapoel Ashkelon last season, scoring seven league goals, and he will get a chance to really make a name for himself this season.
Titles: Championships – 8 (1956/57, 1965/66, 1968/69, 1980/81, 1985/86, 1987/88, 1999/00, 2009/10). State Cups – 9 (1960, 1972, 1983, 1999, 2000, 2006, 2007, 2010, 2011).
Best case: Twelve years after leading Hapoel to a league title and 30 years after claiming his first championship as a coach, Kashtan adds a seventh Premier League triumph to his resume.
Worst case: Not only does Hapoel lose a derby match to Maccabi Tel Aviv for the first time since March 2008, but it even finishes one place below its arch-rival.
After so many years of underachievement, the yellow-and-blue once more looks ready to challenge for the league title.
Maccabi has won just one championship in the past 15 years, and last season was especially depressing for its fans, after the team failed to put up a fight against Haifa and Hapoel despite having a budget of more than NIS 100 million.
Moti Ivanir replaced Avi Nimni and Yossi Mizrahi at the helm in January, and even though there was little improvement in results, owner Mitch Goldhar's decision to hand the authoritarian a contract extension looks set to pay off in the long run.
Maccabi has impressed in the off-season, with Ivanir finally finding the right combination between big earning stars and the products of the youth department. If the early signs are anything to go by, not only will Maccabi fight for the championship until the very end, but it will also play very entertaining soccer this season.
Player to watch out for: Dor Micha. The 19-year-old midfielder impressed after making his debut for Maccabi in February and there should still be plenty to come from him when you consider that Israel under-19 coach Eli Ohana has labeled him as the most talented player of his generation.
Titles: Championships – 14 (1949/50, 1951/52, 1953/54, 1955/56, 1957/58, 1967/68, 1969/70, 1971/72, 1976/77, 1978/79, 1991/92, 1994/95, 1995/96, 2002/03). State Cups – 16 (1954, 1955, 1958, 1959, 1964, 1965, 1967, 1970, 1977, 1987, 1988, 1994, 1996, 2001, 2002, 2005).
Best case: Maccabi fans learn that the longer the wait the sweeter the triumph after their team clinches its first championship since 2003.
Worst case: Maccabi fans begin to believe that their club is simply cursed as another season passes by with the most decorated club in Israeli soccer not even coming close to claiming a title.
The club from south Tel Aviv's Hatikva neighborhood has played in Europe in each of the last three seasons and it will be aiming for a fourth straight top five finish.
Yossi Abuksis replaced Dror Kashtan as coach after the latter moved to Hapoel Tel Aviv, and Bnei Yehuda should be the perfect stepping stone for the first-year manager.
Abuksis inherits a nearly identical squad to the one Kashtan guided last season, and despite a lack of depth, it will be a major disappointment if Bnei Yehuda fails to finish in the top half of the standings.
Player to watch out for: Amir Agajev. The 19-year-old striker will have plenty of opportunities to make his breakthrough this season with Abuksis having few other options up front.
Titles: Championships – 1 (1989/90). State Cups – 2 (1968, 1981).
Best case: Abuksis shows he learned plenty in his three-and-a-half years under the stewardship of Eli Gutman at Hapoel Tel Aviv, guiding Bnei Yehuda to European qualification for a fourth straight season.
Worst case: The financial problems following the departure of former owner Hezi Magen this summer result in Bnei Yehuda missing out on a place in the championship playoffs.
One of the surprises of last season, Kiryat Shmona will be desperate to avoid the second-season syndrome in 2011/12. After finishing their first ever campaign in the top flight in third place in 2007/08, the northerners were disappointingly relegated the following year.
Kiryat Shmona needed just one season to bounce back, and after last term's success, and with Ran Ben-Shimon still in charge of team affairs, the side should be challenging for a place in Europe yet again rather than battling it out with the league's strugglers.
Player to watch out for: Adrian Rochet. If the 24-year-old midfield dynamo builds on last season's excellent displays he will be playing on a far bigger stage in the very near future.
Titles: Championships – 0. State Cups – 0.
Best case: Kiryat Shmona makes amends for missing out on a place in continental competition last season and qualifies for the Europa League.
Worst case: Kiryat Shmona finds its true place in the league and finishes in the middle of the standings.
Netanya exceeded all expectations last season, making the championship playoffs despite being one of the favorites for relegation.
Reuven Atar has held on to most of his young stars, with the likes of Hen Ezra, Kobi Dajani and Firas Mugrabi all choosing to spend another year under the coach that helped them make their breakthroughs last season.
The promising Ben Binyamin has come in from Hapoel Acre and if Atar can create something out of nothing yet again, Netanya should be one of the team's to watch out for this season.
Player to watch out for: Hen Ezra. Maccabi Haifa and Hapoel Tel Aviv may regret not completing the signing of the 22-yearold midfielder this summer as his price could well rocket if he continues at his current rate of progress.
Titles: Championships – 5 (1970/71, 1973/74, 1977/78, 1979/80, 1982/83).
State Cups – 1 (1978).
Best case: Netanya is nowhere near the bottom and remains one of the more entertaining teams in the league.
Worst case: Even Atar can't help Netanya from plunging into the relegation playoffs.
After last season's disappointment, the Luzons brought in coach Marco Balbul in the hope of making a return to European competition. Petah Tikva has gone through wholesale changes, with 10 players leaving and seven joining so far. Balbul has built a solid and balanced squad, but he too knows that he will be gone before too long if his team doesn't begin winning immediately.
Player to watch out for: Tal Ben-Haim. The 22-year-old found the back of the net on his Israel debut in March and he should score far more than the 10 league goals he managed last season now that Omer Damari has left.
Titles: Championships – 0. State Cups – 1 (1952).
Best case: Petah Tikva celebrates its first season in the new stadium by reaching Europe.
Worst case: The new stadium is all but empty as Petah Tikva wallows in mediocrity.
Acre was a pleasant surprise last season, but coach Eli Cohen has got his work cut out for him in the coming campaign.
Acre lost four key players in Itzik Cohen (Maccabi Haifa), Maharan Radi (Bnei Sakhnin), Ben Binyamin (Maccabi Netanya) and Roei Dayan (Beerschot), although Cohen has tried to make up for that with the shrewd signings of Moshe Mishaelof, Nisso Kapiloto and Amiya Taga.
The biggest difference this season could well be Acre's long-overdue return home, with its new stadium to be completed in the coming weeks.
Player to watch out for: Sintiyahu Salalik.
The 20-year-old winger showed some promising signs at Maccabi Haifa last season and has the platform to succeed on loan at Acre.
Titles: Championships – 0. State Cups – 0.
Best case: Cohen finally gets the credit he deserves after Acre easily avoids the relegation battles once more.
Worst case: After three years in the Premier League, Acre is relegated and returns to soccer wilderness.
Beersheba has finished in ninth position in the last two seasons and there's no real reason to expect much more this time around.
Nir Klinger begins his second season as coach, and even though the addition of Laryea Kingston was one of the better pieces of business in the Israeli transfer market this summer, it is hard to see Beersheba fans getting their wish of seeing the team finish in the top five.
Player to watch out for: Ido Eksbard. The 23-year-old has got all the attributes needed to become a top striker.
Titles: Championships – 2 (1974/75, 1975/76). State Cups – 1 (1997).
Best case: Klinger is embraced by the local support after Beersheba claims victories over the big four.
Worst case: Beersheba gets tangled up in the relegation battle and Klinger is just another name on the ever-growing list of coaches to be chased out of town.
After a year in exile at Hapoel Ashkelon and Hapoel Beersheba, fan-favorite Eran Levy returns to Hapoel Haifa and his leftfooted shots will be the main attraction in the team's matches once more.
Star-striker Eden Ben-Basat left for French club Brest, but coach Nitzan Shirazi has otherwise held on to his rising stars and there's no reason Haifa shouldn't manage a midtable finish yet again.
Player to watch out for: Oshri Roash.
Another impressive season by the 23-yearold defender and surely he will be playing at a bigger club next year.
Titles: Championships – 1 (1998\99). State Cups – 3 (1963, 1966, 1974), Best case: A derby win over the Greens caps an otherwise eventless season.
Worst case: Shirazi is back commentating on TV after Haifa drops to the National League.
To say that Betar has been through a turbulent summer would be one of the understatements of the year. The future looked bright just three weeks ago when Americans Dan Adler and Adam Levin promised to return the club to its former glory after agreeing to purchase it from Arkadi Gaydamak.
However, they quickly deserted the club, and with little money to strengthen the squad, David Amsalem resigned as coach just this past Monday. Difficult days lie ahead for the Betar faithful and no one should envy new coach Yuval Naim.
Player to watch out for: Eli Dasa. The 18- year-old right-back broke into the Betar lineup last season and should play an even bigger role this term.
Titles: Championships – 6 (1986/87, 1992/93, 1996/97, 1997/98, 2006/07, 2007/08). State Cups – 7 (1976, 1979, 1985, 1986, 1989, 2008, 2009).
Best case: Betar finally enjoys a quiet season while it waits for a new investor to come in and take it back to the good old days.
Worst case: Betar doesn't secure its survival until the final minutes of the campaign.
Yossi Mizrahi is once more at the helm in Ashdod, but this time he will have to manage without Dimitar Makriev, Idan Shirki and Moshe Ohayon, who led the side for much of the past three seasons. David Revivo returns home from Hapoel Beersheba, but owner Jacky Ben-Zaken will judge Mizrahi by the progress made by the products of the youth department in which he has invested heavily in recent years.
Player to watch out for: Gadi Kinde. The 17-year-old midfielder, who came through the Ashdod youth department, has been earmarked as one of Israel's top talents.
Titles: Championships – 0. State Cups – 0.
Best case: Mizrahi's youngsters improve with every week and Ashdod makes the championship playoffs.
Worst case: Mizrahi pays the price for his squad's inexperience as Ashdod slips into the relegation playoffs.
Shlomi Dora seemed to bring some peace to Sakhnin when he joined in April, settling the club and steering it clear of relegation.
However, he will be hoping to go one better this season and completely avoid the relegation playoffs.
With the core of last season's squad still around and Maharan Radi, Ohad Kadusi and Ori Shitrit all joining, Sakhnin has every chance of maintaining its Premier League status without too much trouble.
Player to watch out for: Mahmud Kannadil.
The 23-year-old has established his place as Sakhnin's first goalkeeper and will have plenty of opportunities to prove his worth.
Titles: Championships – 0. State Cups – 1 (2004).
Best case: Dora is still the coach when the season ends after Sakhnin happily settles for a mid-table finish.
Worst case: Sakhnin gets off to a poor start and Dora is gone before the end of the year.
Petah Tikva fans are still celebrating the fact their club is in the top flight after the Budget Control Authority had relegated it at one stage due to its financial struggles.
Petah Tikva eventually posted the mandatory minimum budget, but it still begins the season with a nine-point deduction after going into liquidation last month.
As if matters weren't bad enough, Gili Landau quit as the coach of the bankrupt club on Tuesday before changing his mind and returning to the helm the following day.
Player to watch out for: Fabian Stoller. The 23-year-old Swiss midfielder impressed last season and deserves to play for a more organized club.
Titles: Championships – 6 (1954\55, 1958\59, 1959\60, 1960\61, 1961\62, 1962\63). State Cups – 2 (1957, 1992).
Best case: Petah Tikva fights relegation until the final seconds of the season.
Worst case: It takes Petah Tikva two months to even erase its nine-point deduction and it never breaks out of the bottom three.
Ramat Hasharon will play in the Premier League for the first time in its history and its coach Momi Zafran has even taken a sabbatical from his day-time job as an accountant to focus on soccer matters.
There are few familiar faces in Zafran's squad, but after winning the National League so impressively last season, he will be confident his players are good enough for the Premier League as well.
Player to watch out for: Baruch Dego. The 30-year-old was one of the Israel's top players when he scored four Champions League goals for Maccabi Tel Aviv in 2004/05. He slipped off the radar in recent seasons, playing in Cyprus, and it will be intriguing to see if there is anything left of the old Dego.
Titles: Championships – 0. State Cups – 0.
Best case: Ramat Hasharon's first ever season in the top flight is followed by a second.
Worst case: After one year, Ramat Hasharon is back where it belongs – in the National League.
Rishon Lezion was playing in the third division just over two years ago. But two promotions in three seasons have got its fans dreaming of the good olds days when it played nine straight seasons in the top flight until its relegation in 2003.
Nisso Yehezkel will be coaching in the Premier League for the first time in his career and his ability to get Rishon to play better than the sum of its parts will decide how the team fares.
Player to watch out for: David Gomez.
After scoring 14 league goals for Rishon last season, the 22-year-old Brazilian striker will be looking to prove he has what it takes to play in the top flight.
Titles: Championships – 0. State Cups – 0.
Best case: Rishon surprises everyone and avoids relegation in the last week of the season.
Worst case: Even Hapoel Petah Tikva finishes ahead of Rishon.

North Korea has shut down its universities for the next 10 months so students can work in factories to help rebuild the country's depleted economy, according to the Daily Telegraph.
The communist regime ordered all universities Monday to cancel all classes until next April 2012.
The Telegraph reports that North Korean students will be put to work on construction projects in major cities.
One Japanese professor tells the U.K. paper that Pyongyang may be worried about students uprising against the government.
"The leadership has seen the 'Jasmine Revolution' in Africa and it is very frightened that the same thing could happen in North Korea. They fear it could start in the universities," Toshimitsu Shigemura, a professor at Tokyo's Waseda University, told the Telegraph.
Shigemura also said that North Korea recently purchased anti-riot gear from China and that there has been an increased police presence in Pyongyang.

Adaptation Review: The Great Gatsby (1974)
About this time last year I wrote Filming Fiction: Gatsby, Catcher, and the Novelistic Novel wherein I discussed my thoughts on certain novels and their inability to translate well to film – and wherein I generally discussed The Great Gatsby and my lingering avoidance of its film adaptations. Finally, just after its newest incarnation has hit the screens, I went back in time to 1974 and experienced Gatsby's world through the eyes of Sam Waterston, Mia Farrow, and (of course) Robert Redford. This is only my second viewing of a Gatsby adaptation, and I was perhaps predictably reluctant at times. Whether you loved or hated Fitzgerald's classic novel, I think one thing most readers could possibly agree on is the otherworldly sense that it has. Much like the fictional West Egg and East Egg are nestled into the very non-fictional Long Island, so is the bizarre magic of Gatsby's story set inside some very real-world themes. As an observation on character flaws it's stellar – Daisy and Tom are all too familiar depictions of "careless people" in a fast-moving social sphere – but Gatsby himself is set apart, in my opinion, from the familiarity. In that way, venturing into any Gatsby adaptation should have a hint of venturing into another world. I definitely thought Jack Clayton's film achieved the vibe I've always wanted The Great Gatsby to have on the screen.
Likewise, Francis Ford Coppola's script plays so well off of the novel, bringing Nick Carraway's narrative onto the screen in something a little more than just a voice-over. Sam Waterston offered, as Carraway, a great vessel for what I think contributes very strongly to the novel's appeal – the unattached, slightly reluctant witness to this world of fabulous excess who is thrown in long enough to acquire a sizeable distaste for the flash of its glamour before drifting away in a quiet, contemplative bemusement. Jordan Baker is one of my favorite characters of the novel, and I really enjoyed Lois Chiles in the role; she's so effortlessly cool, just as I imagined Jordan. Bruce Dern is boorish and slightly annoying - appropriately Tom Buchanan; Karen Black as Myrtle Wilson is just as luxuriously obsessed and erratically passionate as I imagined; and I was surprisingly moved by Scott Wilson as her husband George. Of course, the two pillars of the cast are Mia Farrow and Robert Redford.
I have to admit that Daisy is really one of my least favorite characters in literature; I just don't find myself sympathetic toward her, but to some degree I suppose that's typical. (How I'm able to be deeply sympathetic to Gatsby and still strongly dislike Daisy has always mystified me a bit, but I guess I'm very like Nick Carraway by the end of things.) Mia Farrow, though, really reached out in her performance and made me significantly more interested in Daisy as a character, and the painful flippancy that she seems to have very little control over in her life. She really helped me to better understand Daisy's misfortune, and I'd be curious to re-read the novel now with that performance in mind. Robert Redford I just loved: I'm not sure what else there is to say about him. Few people, I think, can pull of the quiet quirks of Gatsby; as small as it is, it can be cringe-worthy to hear the old sports spoken aloud – it's just a little off. But not here, and those little things, along with Redford's depth of ability make it such a wonderful performance. His reaction at seeing Daisy again for the first time struck me as such a powerful moment; it's the things like that, the slightly hidden intricacies of his character, that I think make Gatsby so unique and intriguing.
In all, I think the film struck me as being quite like what a Gatsby adaptation should be. There will always be some strangeness of the novel that I think will make adapting it for the screen a tricky business, but this was a golden attempt and a memorable, beautiful alternative vision that captures much of the novel's allure.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 13 by 9-inch pan with the vegetable oil cooking spray.
Cook the pasta in plenty of boiling, salted water until it has softened a bit but is still not quite cooked all the way through. (The pasta will absorb the liquid from the sauce as it finishes cooking in the oven.) Drain, rinse with cold water to stop the cooking, drain again, and set aside.
Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the turkey. Cook, breaking up the meat into large clumps, until it is cooked through, about 10 minutes. Season it with a little salt and pepper. Remove the meat with a slotted spoon to drain any excess liquid from the meat.
Let the pan cool a bit, then add the remaining butter and melt it over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk to combine. Whisk constantly until the flour has cooked but not browned, about 2 minutes. Add the milk slowly, whisking to avoid creating any lumps. Add the chicken stock, cayenne, and nutmeg and cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture begins to thicken, about 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in the sage and season with some salt and pepper. Fold in the turkey and pasta, making sure it is all well coated with the sauce. Pour into the prepared pan.
To make the topping, combine the bread crumbs and Parmesan and moisten with the melted butter. Spread topping evenly over the tetrazzini, put the pan into the oven, and cook until the top is golden brown and the mixture is bubbling, about 30 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
You can also fill 8 individual greased 10 to 12-ounce ramekins with the tetrazzini and topping. These will bake in about 20 minutes. These can be frozen: Make sure they are cool, then add 1 tablespoon milk, chicken stock, or water to each ramekin. Wrap them well in plastic wrap and put them into the freezer. Poke a hole in the plastic wrap and microwave on defrost for 5 minutes, then microwave on high heat for about 8 to 10 minutes or until the tetrazzini is hot and bubbling.

When I'm writing, I often go from one extreme to another. Sure, there are those awesome times where the words and chapters just flow. But there are also those all too common (and often) roadblocks. The key is making sure they're speed bumps and not dead ends.
When I feel my writing energy waning and I'm getting pulled out of the story, there are a few things I do to help me get back into it. Many are super helpful to staying acquainted with my main character, because when doing that, the story just flows. Others just plain old help fill the well of mental well being.
Top 10 ways to get (and stay!) motivated during a first draft:
1. Music. Any writer will attest that their favorite music can be inspiring, but I like to consider what my character likes. What does my main character listen to? What does she like? And then I listen to that. Gets me more in touch with her, let's me slip into her skin a bit.
2. Keeping it old school, writing in a notebook. I've been doing this more and more lately. It's really effective. Plus, when writing in a notebook – especially with the computer not nearby, it avoids the whole write one sentence/twitter/facebook/email/email/twitter/wordswithfriends problem.
3. Work out. Exercise totally helps clear the mind and get the ideas flowing! Nothing like a long walk or run to help sort out my thoughts and get the plot points falling into place.
4. Becoming more like your character. Okay, it might sound weird, but I swear it helps me. Like wearing a color or style that is specific to my character, or doing something that is just so them. When writing my last novel, I drank more caramel lattes than I ever normally would. But my character drank them a lot in the book and it helped me feel immersed in her world. Even going out "in character," shopping or to the park and seeing the world through their eyes, helps to slip into their head. Becoming/thinking like my characters, help the words and prose flow more authentically.
5. Lists and outlines. Remember those old school brainstorming webs from elementary school? Doing that or just making a list helps to brainstorm and get the mind flowing with ideas again. Even just a list of plot points can lead my mind in a different direction and break the humdrum I'm taking the story in.
6. Freewriting. Sometimes when trying to get through a draft I just trudge through, slap down words, even if it's down and dirty ugly. Maybe they're chapters, sometimes just random tidbits and freewriting about my characters. I can scrap it all later, and most likely I will, but it may just lead me where those characters are going. Plus, freewriting is, well, freeing. It's one part mind clearing and another part liberating, especially if you set the intention that no one will see it.
7. Meditation and yoga. There's a reason yoga and meditation have been around for centuries as a source of wellness. Because they clear the mind and restore energy and strength (both physical and mental). They may not directly help my story, but after a session of either, I'm empowered and ready to write anew.
8. Magazines. Looking through magazines and cutting out pictures that speak to your character or story. A good friend of mine is a photographer and he gives me all his old photo magazines. They're filled with such beautiful images. Just flipping through them is inspiring in its own right, but I often rip out the ones I think would speak to my main character and spend some time looking through those.
9. Reading. Reading. Reading. Nothing makes me want to write like reading a great book that keeps me up and pulls me in. And when we're reading, even when we're just reading for fun, we're absorbing, learning craft and taking it in. It's inspiring!
10. Laugh at yourself. Yes, some of the first draft stuff is clumsy and cliché. So what? Laugh at yourself, and then, when that draft is done, revise and make it better. No one writes a book in one draft. But most everyone starts with a rough one.

The 12 months of Animals..
"Targetting" Animal news and campaigns, brought to you by the Justice for Mary - and Let's turn Facebook Orange for Animal Cruelty Awareness Animal Advocacy Team.
I'm out of words to characterize the barbarous practiced in a Coyote killing contest. Humans seem to be in a retrograde path to their primeval instincts. Aren't there no laws, other than moral laws, and authorities to prevent the brutality?
