Posted by Nancy Leson In today's New York Times, "The Minimalist" Mark Bittman brings home a point that became all too clear to me during our recent "Storm Watch: 2008!" when I, like so many of you, hunkered down at home and cooked. During that lengthy home-'n-hang I turned to my fridge and pantry with considerable more interest than usual, to keep from having to de-ice-and-snow the car or walk in (ankle-) deep snow to get to the market for provisions. Using ingredients I had on hand I made soup. And turned to my larder for homegrown potatoes to eat with that comfort-food specialty, roast chicken. I also baked many loaves of the Bread Recipe That Roared (thanks again, Bittman!). I even delved into my notorious downstairs freezer for inspiration. So this morning, when I saw the photo accompanying The Minimalist's story "Fresh Start for a New Year? Let's Begin in the Kitchen" and read what he had to say about the literal "ins" and "outs" regarding cooking essentials, I immediately wanted to share it with you. And here's why: Point by point I emphatically agree with The Minimalist — with one exception. He says out with the packaged bread crumbs, I say packaged panko rules! And, what do you know: I wasn't at all surprised to find that my larder could pose as the poster-child to back up his kitchen philosophy: What Bittman said, in a nutshell (or, as we say in the business, a nut graf), is "if your goal is to cook and cook quickly, to get a satisfying and enjoyable variety of real food on the table as often as possible, a well-stocked pantry and fridge can sustain you." Damn straight. So read it, then eat it. And tell me: what fridge and pantry staples are a must-have in your house? Comments | More in Cooking | Topics: Reading about eating

Front doors in Scotland may be little more than a way of getting in or out of your home or commercial property, but it is so much more than that. First impressions count, and your door is the gateway not only to your home, but a tantalising hint of what lies within, whether it's a business or a family home.
Front doors can serve many purposes as well as allowing you to enter and leave a property.
Appearances Count
Your home looks a whole lot more inviting with an entrance. You think they're just front doors, but it's the first thing anyone sees before they enter your home. A shabby door leads to shabby impressions, a beautiful door in keeping with the architecture of the house leads to a great first impression and that's a great start. It's the one thing that a potential buyer will see and it could also increase the value of your home – so it's a worthwhile investment.
If you run a business your front doors may be your shop front and first impressions really do count. Your front door will give an indication of what business you're in and whether you're open for business in every sense of the word.
Warmth and Security
Front doors will keep you warm in winter if you choose well. You don't want one that let's drafts in during cold spells and if your current door is starting to do exactly that, then perhaps it's time to consider a new door with draft exclusion. You'll save on energy and heating bills in the long run.
You want your front doors to give your family security, you want to be able shut the door on the world and know that your family is safe from harm. So consider the strength and robustness of your door and the materials chosen, your external doors should be tough and hardwearing with a sturdy lock.
Maintenance and Hallway Soundproofing
An initial investment in a robust well-made door will pay dividends in the long run as it will prove easier and cheaper to maintain over the years, keeping its shape, function and appearance. By choosing the right door, you'll also secure decent sound proofing for your hallway – important if you live directly on a main road with a constant flow of traffic and people directly outside your door. Peace and quiet is something that you value when you own your own home and a good door will give you exactly that.
In conclusion then, a good quality well fitted external doors are a great idea to:
Increase the value of your home
Increase the value and reputation of your commercial property/business
Improve the appearance of your home/business
Provide better standards of warmth and security for your property
Provide better maintenance and hallway soundproofing.
So if you're looking to improve your home or commercial property, starting with a good quality external doors, then get in touch. We're a friendly and professional team and we're always willing to help.

We fell in love with Sarabeth's after tasting the most delicious pancake. Now we love Sarabeth's for another reason: Sarabeth's Award-Winning Legendary Spreadable Fruit (we knew we had something in common with Oprah). Sarabeth's fruit spread is AMAZING. That's all we need for breakfast- one of their fruit spreads with one of their delicious breads.
When you walk into Sarabeth's Bakery at the Chelsea Market, you smell nothing but buttery sweetness. We wonder if they hire someone to mop up the drool puddle from the door to the cash register. We were salivating. The bakery is simple, with just a few tables, no waiters, and a view of the small bakery - far different from their restaurants.
Jennifer's Dream Omelet was exactly that, a dream. The Jennifer Omelet was probably one of the sweetest and most unique omelets we've ever tried. Sweet jam with cheese sounds like a strange mix but it was decadently good, without the decadent price (a bargain at $7). The egg was thick, fluffy and perfect, the jam was, well, legendary, the cheese was smooth and light, and the croissant that came with it was near perfection. Also, what a great name for this omelet.
Oh, and their lemon buttermilk cake - FANTASTIC! Not bad for what started out as a small family business out of a Manhattan apartment. Sarabeth's is now something of a global business - with the fruit spreads being sold in the the Caribbean, Canada, Japan and South Korea. The jams are still produced in New York (in a factory in the Bronx) and the business is still being operated by the founders Sarabeth and Bill.


text: My feline loves: Luca is a cuddler and Sophia is like a teenager - she wants attention but doesn't stick around long. Luca reminds me of Garfield; unless you're feeding him, he doesn't want to be bothered. I sense they can tell something has been awry for months; they've been staying close by my side as I binge-watch television shows, nap and crochet. Luca is loyal and caring, he finds his place in the nook of my armpit and spoons with me when I'm lying down. I cuddle him and nudge my nose in the crook of his neck and listen to him purr; it's the most comfortable position because it's like having a furry, live, warm teddy bear. Sophia comes around and wags her furry, Maine Coon tail to lets her presence be known, then walks away. I rescued these cats seven years ago, now hey are reducing me.

One of the very first topics we often talk about with new clients is pets. Sometimes, property owners have a bad experience with a tenant who had pets and the torn up carpets or damaged walls have left a bad taste in their mouth. They kind of swing to the other end of the pendulum and they don't want to accept any pets ever.
We talk them out of that. If you decide you don't want pets, you're drastically reducing your tenant pool. At least 80 percent, if not more, of the applications we receive have at least one pet listed. If you perform due diligence up front and have safeguards in place, you will be able to protect yourself against pet damage.
Take a look at the weight, breed, age and size of the pet. One thing we also require is a picture of the pet taken with the owner. You'd be surprised how many terrier mixes there are out there that aren't really terrier mixes. They're more Pit Bull. Make sure the animal living in the property is the same as what's on the application. If we need to enter the property or a vendor has to go there, it's important to know what kind of animal we're going to find. The pet deposit we charge is based on the size and weight of the animal.
Service animals are a hot topic issue. We understand the Americans with Disability Act laws and regulations. When a tenant lists an animal as a service animal, we take a hands-off approach. We don't collect a pet fee or a nonrefundable deposit. We don't even list the animal on the pet agreement. Instead, it's listed as an occupant on the lease. That policy comes from the education we've received and our knowledge of best practices across the country in the property management industry.
If you have any questions about pets or service animals, please contact us at Moxie Property Management, and we'd be happy to tell you more.

"High-resolution acquisition, learning and transfer dynamic 3D facial expressions," Computer Graphics Forum, (2004)/
[1] Y Wang, X Huang, C-S Lee, S Zhang, Z Li, D Samaras, D Metaxas, A Elgammal, and P Huang, "High-resolution acquisition, learning and transfer dynamic 3D facial expressions," Computer Graphics Forum, 23(3), 2004; doi: 10.1111/j.1467-8659.2004.00800.x
Synthesis and re-targeting of facial expressions is central to facial animation and often involves significant manual work in order to achieve realistic expressions, due to the difficulty of capturing high quality dynamic expression data. In this paper we address fundamental issues regarding the use of high quality dense 3-D data samples undergoing motions at video speeds, e.g. human facial expressions. In order to utilize such data for motion analysis and re-targeting, correspondences must be established between data in different frames of the same faces as well as between different faces. We present a data driven approach that consists of four parts: 1) High speed, high accuracy capture of moving faces without the use of markers, 2) Very precise tracking of facial motion using a multi-resolution deformable mesh, 3) A unified low dimensional mapping of dynamic facial motion that can separate expression style, and 4) Synthesis of novel expressions as a combination of expression styles. The accuracy and resolution of our method allows us to capture and track subtle expression details. The low dimensional representation of motion data in a unified embedding for all the subjects in the database allows for learning the most discriminating characteristics of each individual's expressions as that person's "expression style". Thus new expressions can be synthesized, either as dynamic morphing between individuals, or as expression transfer from a source face to a target face, as demonstrated in a series of experiments.

How many Sessions?
How many Sessions for Hypertrophy?
George Cho, MFSc, CEP, CSCS
How many times a week should we train in order to increase muscle size? What does the science show? In order to get an answer, we turn to a 2016 review paper by Dr Brad Schoenfeld and colleagues published in the journal: Sports Medicine, and also to the Position Stand of the American College of Sports Medicine entitled: Progression Models in Resistance Training for Healthy Adults. The main summary points are found below.
- Training a muscle group twice a week seems to be superior to once a week for gaining muscle size.
- It cannot be conclusively stated whether three times a week is superior to twice a week
- The science does not allow us to conclude whether four or more sessions/week for a muscle group is superior to two or three sessions a week.
- When comparing two groups, it seems that the number of sessions may not really matter if the total volume of training between the two groups is the same. Which is to say, even if group A does only one session for each muscle group and another does several sessions a week, the gains may be the same if the total amount of training accomplished is equivalent.
- Anecdotal evidence of body builders shows that many train each muscle group only once a week.
American College of Sports Medicine recommendation:
Novices: 2 - 3 whole-body sessions a week
Experienced: increased number of sessions using a split routine (ex. upper/lower body split routine).
Concluding Thoughts
More science is needed in order to make concrete recommendations. For now, it seems that training each muscle group at least twice a week is a goal to strive for. But keep in mind that just going to the gym is of no avail if one is not training meaningfully during the session. Remember that when volume (total amount of training) is the same, the frequency may not really matter. This is how for instance body builders can do only one session per muscle group but still build mass. Why? Because during the one session, they train meaningfully (ie. hard).

On Risk & Culture
By Anonymous
Trigger warnings: depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation
It is 5 pm on a Wednesday evening.
I am behind in all my classes, barely recovered from the flu, and might not have enough money to last me this semester or a job to support myself.
And yet, I am happy.
Happier than I had been for days. Months. Years.
I can finally see the light at the end of a long, dark, and treacherous tunnel that my depression and anxiety had thrust me into.
I had my first suicidal thoughts in middle school. The thoughts abated, but continued to be a part of me for seven years now. Four years into my recurring thoughts of suicide and self-harm, I knew these never-ending feelings of doom and hopelessness weren't normal.
But I did nothing to help myself, and I am not alone. Two out of every three people who suffer from depression do not seek or receive proper treatment in America. In countries and cultures where mental illness is still severely stigmatized, this number is even higher.
I come from one such culture where mental illness is so stigmatized that being sent to a psychiatric hospital is the worst thing that can happen to a person's credibility. I still remember my mother making a joke about a psychiatric hospital we were passing by one time. She is one of the kindest and most well-meaning people I know, but this is the culture she was born and raised in. I did not and do not fault her for it, even when I felt like crying as she said those words.
Well aware of the stigma behind mental illness and my reluctance to have my parents involved, I did not seek help until I arrived at Wellesley. Even at Wellesley, I made sure that no information regarding my treatment would ever make its way to my parents. It was such a tightly held secret that, until this past summer, only five people knew I was being treated for depression and anxiety. Three of them were members of the Stone Center. Two of them were friends I made at Wellesley. No one from my hometown knew about my depression or anxiety. When I did eventually tell a handful of people they all told me that "they had no clue" and that I "looked like I was having the time of my life." They had no clue that I felt like putting myself out of my misery every day.
It was suffocating not being able to explain, but, fearing judgment and condescension, I kept my mouth shut. I only ended up telling some people at home because my suicidal thoughts were severely triggered this past summer, and in a fit of uncontrollable anger and frustration, I blurted it out to several of my closest friends. Most were accepting. Some invalidated my illness and spread the information around. It was one of the hardest times of my life, but I am still grateful for the opportunity I had to finally open up to my closest friends. Since then, I have become more open about my illness at school and with my friends, and it has done wonders for my mental health.
The point of all this is to emphasize that not all people have the privilege of being treated, diagnosed, or even speaking out about their illnesses to others.
I still remember reading a comment by someone at Wellesley about how they had been diagnosed by a psychiatrist, unlike the people who self-diagnosed themselves and thought of themselves as "special snowflakes." It wasn't the first time I read something like that, and it really bothered me when I read it at Wellesley—especially when I had just been diagnosed with depression and anxiety by a psychiatrist.
It bothered me because before being diagnosed and coming to Wellesley, I had also self-diagnosed myself as depressed. Back when I was just self-diagnosed, I could tell myself I was over-reacting, and I did often tell myself I was just trying to be "special." Despite the hours and hours of my time that I put into researching my symptoms and condition, I still wanted to hold onto some hope that there was nothing wrong with me. That I didn't need help. That I wasn't the defect my culture told me I was.
Being diagnosed did finally banish those thoughts and force me to confront my illness and treat it. It wasn't easy. One counselor told me my depression and suicidal thoughts were an overreaction to a close friend of mine passing away, despite my extensive history of suicidal thoughts. One doctor told me I just needed more vitamin D and exercise, despite the fact that I'm from a state that is sunny year-round and walk several miles a day. Every step of the way, someone told me that I was overreacting and that there was no need to go on anti-depressants. But despite the lectures, nausea, and insomnia that resulted as a consequence of my taking the medicine, I'm glad I stayed on it. Because I finally feel like life is worth living, and that to me is worth so much more than the bullshit I fed myself and was fed before.
So I want to say that yes, there are people who misuse mental illness terms.
And, there are also people who self-diagnose themselves because that's all they can do.
There are people who can't afford the monetary price of treatment. There are people who don't have the support of their family members or other loved ones. There are people who would face more than just pity and condescension if their mental illness were to be revealed. And I think it's time to admit that emphasizing a professional diagnosis and invalidating the concerns of those who self-diagnose themselves hurt those with mental illnesses, even as it is meant to help them.
And to those that suspect they may have a mental illness or have concerns that you've never shared with anyone else or feel stressed about something you're bottling up: go seek out help—whether from a friend, mentor, counselor, or someone else who will guarantee your privacy. The worst that can happen is someone looks down on you, and then you can move on to someone who will take you and your well being seriously. Recovery is worth the risk. Feeling better is worth the risk.

From my book 'A Distilled Spirit: pained prose from a bar.'
161 poems written exclusively from inside the pubs I haunt…
'let it out'
you're unable to suppress it
the slightest thing sends you into a tizzy
you can't see clearly
not that you could before
as tears spill from your eyes
let it out
is all i can rouse myself to say
knowing full well you'll grasp every opportunity
to let him back in.

No two post-school journeys are the same, and that definitely applies to the motley crew of kids running the show at Year13. We've got the high achiever, the uni drop-out, the school yard rebel and the one who thought they'd never reach Year 12. We've got the quiet kid who sat up the back with their nose buried in a book and we've got the class clown who played pranks and made their teacher cry that one time. We want to tell our stories and hear all about yours. We want to be the voice box for all young Aussies who still have no idea wtf they're doing, just like us. Cause really, who of us isn't a little bit lost?
Love from the crew at
Our mission at Year13 is a simple one; we just want to improve the health and happiness of all young Australians, and create a place where we can have our voices heard. By providing a comprehensive place to explore all options, we want to alleviate some of the stress of young life, so there's more time for us to go on long drives with our mates, stay up 'til sunrise and spend time with the ones we love, because our youth should never be wasted.
Year13 is here to connect you to all the options available to you after high school and beyond. Here you'll find career and life advice that will help you find the opportunity that is right for you and have you on the path to success. Here's how it works:
Year13 is made by young people, for young people. Year13 was born when the founders were teenagers and now the team who run the show is a rag tag bunch of school leavers and confused 20-somethings who are still on their own post school journeys and learning a whole lot along the way. Here's a little insight into the Year13 office, or if you want to see more about our team, jump over here.
If our services are free for young people, you might be wondering how the heck we make money. There's a couple of different ways. We've been lucky enough to receive some funding from the Federal Government and through the support of our partners like Westpac. How we make most of our money is through promoting some of the amazing opportunities that exist out there for youth.
But don't let the word 'promoting' turn you off. We are very picky about who we do work with, and will only promote opportunities to our users that we know and trust. We also make sure we're telling you about different options in all different post-school options. We don't just work with universities or just with apprenticeship providers, we work with all kinds of post-school option providers, including vocational education providers, TAFEs, private unis and colleges, companies with entry level jobs, travel companies and heaps more. This way, we're able to keep all of our services to you guys totally freeeeeeeeee!
We're always looking for new people to join the Year13 team or contribute to our website. If you want to join these legends and become a part of Year13, there's a few options for ya. You can see what in-house jobs Year13 has available on their job profile, or you can become a contributor for your words or your photos. If you simply want to get in contact and have a chat, jump over to our Contact Us page.

"We have met the enemy, and he is us." -Walt Kelly
I used to have a gift for attracting the losers women affectionately refer to as bad boys. And I found those losers attractive.
Oh, I how I loved bad boys!
Despite the tears and sleepless nights they caused, they never bored me. They gave me plenty to talk about with my friends over a slice and coke at Nick's Pizza. But mostly they made me miserable. Nervous. Jealous. Sad. Paranoid.
Still, I spent months daydreaming that by offering a sparkling insight, by putting on a sexy dress, or by telling a hilarious joke, they'd see me for the incredible woman I was. And I'd change them. They'd stop cheating, drinking, skipping work, or whatever their particular problem was — and transform into Prince Charming.
I would rescue them. I would.
After years of this nonsense, it finally dawned on to me to stop dating until I attracted a man who would make me happy. That's right: He would have to make me happy. I stopped trying to rehabilitate losers. I ceased being Florence Nightingale to guys who refused to help themselves.
The result?
I started attracting (and, more importantly, being attracted to) the boring, nice guys I used to turn my nose up at. You know, the loyal, affectionate, reliable, successful, fun ones that do their share in a relationship.
And guess what? I stopped being miserable, nervous, jealous, and paranoid. I changed so much that a friend's father commented, "What happened to you? You used to be so depressed all the time."
Enough about me. What about you?
If you're continually attracting bad men, you have a problem. Bad men are attracted to women they perceive they can abuse, emotionally or physically. Are you up for abuse?
If so, why?
Sit down, pour a cup of tea, and have a good chat with yourself. Why do you attract losers? Why do you find them attractive? If you find good men boring or 'too safe,' what does that say about you? Are you afraid of a real relationship?
Write your answers on a piece of paper. Give them some thought. Ask yourself what kind of man would give you the peace and joy you truly deserve. Write that down, too. Use your second list as a litmus test. The next time you date a guy, ask yourself if he possesses the qualities you need to be happy.
Ask yourself if you're willing to be happy (not everybody is, you know). If your answer is yes, that's great. If you answer is no, ask yourself why.
What are you afraid of? What's stopping you? Are you willing to change it?
Proceed accordingly. -Terry Hernon MacDonald

22 And now, after the many testimonies which have been given of him, this is the testimony, last of all, which we give of him: That he lives! 23 For we saw him, even on the right hand of God; and we heard the voice bearing record that he is the Only Begotten of the Father—24 That by him, and through him, and of him, the worlds are and were created, and the inhabitants thereof are begotten sons and daughters unto God. (Doctrine and Covenants 76:23-24.)
We worked on memorizing these verses for a time in class and then discussed the practical application of what it means to know something. When we talk about knowing that Jesus is the Christ it is important for us to know how we know. Joseph Smith knew because he had seen and conversed with Jesus Christ. For us who have not seen Him, it is prudent to discuss not only what we know, but how we can know these things are true.
Sometimes we are confonted by people or ideas that shake our faith. There are basically four main "faith shakers" in the Book of Mormon. Jacob, when confronted by Sherem in Jacob 7 states that "I could not be shaken" (Jacob 7:5). What is it about Jacob that made his testimony so strong as to withstand Sherem's tactics?
We see another confrontation in Alma 30 between Korihor and Alma where Alma uses Korihor's own argument against him in verse 40 where he says, "and now what evidence have ye that there is no God, or that Christ cometh not? I say unto you that ye have none, save it be your word only." Just as Korihor says that you cannot prove there is a God, so it is that you also cannot prove that he does not exist. It takes at least as much faith to believe in the teachings of Korihor as it does to believe in Alma's words.
The power in Alma's testimony is that not only can he say that he knows, but he says "let me tell you how I know." Alma then proceeds to tell us how he knows that Jesus is the Christ. In Alma 30:44 he gives four specific reasons for his faith in the Savior.
1- the testimony of all these thy brethren– who, if we asked them to, could share experiences from their lives that there is a God, and that He is aware of them. These experiences are substantial evidence, based on reality, that there is a God. Think of the millions of individuals who have felt the power of the Savior in their lives. I ask my students to think of times in their life when they have felt Him close to them, that He is aware of them and their situation.
2- the testimony of all the holy prophets. There is marvelous consistency in their testimonies. This is authority. From Adam to Thomas S. Monson, there is a clear, consistent message of salvation.
3- the scriptures. The very fact that these books exist is tangible, physical evidence that there is a God. If the Book of Mormon was not translated by the power of God, it had to come from somewhere. I love Emma's quote where she insisted that Joseph never could have written the book.
4- all things denote there is a God – our universe is a testimony/witness that there is a God. My reason tells me that you cannot have this kind of order without some organizing intelligent being behind this. Reason tells you this. I know there is a God, and I know why I know.
My testimony is based on 1)reason, 2)authority, 3)experience
Alma explains this. Put the foundation underneath what you know. Then you know why you know and so when the Korihor's of our lives come along, we have a strong foundation to our testimony that can stand these winds, in fact, it can stand the test of eternity.

One of my best friends and roommates is an amazing yoga instructor. For awhile now she has been asking me to take some photos for her and I finally had time to. I took photos of three of Yoga Works employees. We all had a great time. It was interesting having to shoot them in so many static poses...and now that I think about it there were probably as many great "falling" shots as any perfectly posed ones.
If anyone has any good idea for other twisty photo shoots, give me word.

Hey there, I'm Xander here with EventMB.
On behalf of an industry where our professionals are constantly striving to establish the value that we provide to our clients but are in a market that has a relatively low barrier to entry, we're going to take a look at some of the major truths that we want our clients to understand when it comes to hiring an event professional. With new event businesses starting everyday, it's no wonder that our clients really don't know what to expect from vendor to vendor. If they all were to know these specific truths, our jobs would be a lot easier.
- Somebody will always be able to do something for cheaper. In an industry where there are a lot of vendors doing similar work, there are some that are racing to the bottom. You're always going to be able to find competitors that are willing to do the work that you're proposing for cheaper but the end product is going to be nowhere near the quality that you had intended to put into the process. So if you're clients are coming back to you and saying that you are higher priced than what they are finding from other vendors in the area on the design that you proposed, then it's likely that they don't understand some of the implications and the intricacies of that design work.
- They cannot imagine the number of hours that we spend on every single event. The amount of time it takes to produce an event is pretty astronomical when you think of it. There's so much time spent putting together spreadsheets and templates and communication schedules and load-in schedules and all of the individual planning elements that go into producing an event. Come week of, you're easily able to put in 100 hours in that one week to be able to produce the perfect event. Our clients don't always know what it takes to be able to do that.
- The next is sharing the budget. If our clients would just give us their budgets, we would know a lot of things about their event right off the get-go. As event producers, we have a general understanding of what it takes to produce an event and the costs that are associated with some of those things, especially when your services are considered boutique or more high-end, you also know what price point you're willing to produce an event at. So when your clients are able to share what their budget in mind is, you're able to see exactly how much they're dedicating to it, and whether you're going to be the right service provider to provide an event solution. No hard feelings, it's not like you're going to walk into a Ferrari dealership and expect a Ford a price.
- We just can't handle anymore of the exposure, we're just going to need regular ol' cash. As it were, the bank has said no more, we cannot cash any of the exposure or great credit, goodwill from all of these events that are asking us to produce them for free or for a steeply-discounted price. We're just going to have to use regular ol' cash. We actively know what events are going to be most strategic for the exposure that we're going to get out of them, so it turns out we're probably already having conversations with those events to try to get in front of their audience.
- We can say yes to anything, your wish is our command, seriously, for a price. Anything that our clients are wondering about, anything they want to incorporate, they want to add, just a throw-off idea that they suddenly had in the middle of the night, decided to shoot you an email - "mariachi band? Sure, why not." All of the things that your clients are wondering about, we can deliver, we can pretty much produce anything, so long as the money is there. And it's probably going to cost quite a bit so you really need to take a look at what your budget is, and what you're willing to spend, and inform your clients what these implications are going to look like for add-ons. Is a fire-breathing dragon absolutely necessary for your centerpiece? We can do it. No problem. Can you afford it? Eh, we'll see.
- Our clients need to know that anything they ask for is probably going to have a cost. Everything costs something. Some venues are going to sell you bottles of water as opposed to putting out dispensers with tap water. You want that extra table to be brought in? Well, then we're going to be looking at labor costs. You're going to have to put a linen on that, that's an extra $40. The chair, the table itself are going to have additional expenses, the food they are going to be putting at that table, all of these little things are going to start adding up so know that any requests that we receive as planners is probably getting logged as an additional charge that we're going to have to expense at the end.
- Requesting instant proposal turnaround hurts everyone. We don't have the time to produce quality proposals if we have less than 24 hours, ideally more than 72 hours to put together the best proposal possible. The reason behind that is that often times, we're working with other vendors and getting information from them. We need the lead time to have those conversations, have some negotiation talk, see what we can do to make the best price available for you and your event and then figuring out how to present that to you as a full package. We don't have the time to do that if we have less than five hours to get you a proposal, or we won't be considered for the event. That's a little ridiculous. Expect a little bit more time to get higher-quality proposals and you're going to start seeing your events flourish.
- We may be getting a kick-back but don't be afraid to ask about it. So, when it comes to the event industry, there are a lot of relationships that are established between partners that are just natural working relationships that work out really well. You may have a relationship with a specific hotel where we've established that connection and they've set up a sales incentive for us to bring more business to their hotels. That might apply across a ton of different vendors for your events. Now, a lot of planners are pretty transparent about this process. But some like to think that it's a completely separate business process in and of itself. Either way, don't be afraid to ask. Anyone that's not willing to be upfront about what their compensation package looks like and what that commission structure is, is probably a bad player that you don't want to get in bed with.
- Not hiring us, but using our ideas is stealing. So we all know how it goes. The client loved the design proposal, loved every element of it, except for the price. So they've taken all of these different proposal ideas and sent them off to different service providers or looked to find different ways to bring it all together through different providers on their own. Well, that's stealing, simple as that. If you took the time to put together these ideas then presented in a way that was going to communicate something to that particular client, then you deserve the credit that goes along with that. Sure, they might not be hiring you to produce it but they definitely need to pay you for your design work.
- Every event means the world to us, we're not just blowing smoke here. When it comes to producing events, every single program we are working on, we are 100% in. The love, passion, and energy around creating experiences is what drives us so never let that go.
In Conclusion
So as we wrap up, these are the rules of engagement when it comes to working with event planners. As an industry, we're relatively new but we're really establishing ourselves quickly. Like any other big-ticket purchase that a company or an individual is going to make, whether it's a new piece of equipment or a car, a home - all of these big purchases have their own rules and kind of formats on how you move forward through those transactions. The event industry is no different so pay attention to these 10 Things That We Wish All of Our Clients Would Know and you are going to start having better relationships with those clients.

The first field trip of this year was marked by the beginning of our CLP funded project and took place from August 5th to August 9th. During this field trip we had a meeting with the administrator of Conda (the municipality where Kumbira is located), Mr. Fernando Fonseca, where we presented the project and share some ideas and concerns. Mr. Fonseca show himself very receptive and supportive with the project.
Then we continue our trip to Kumbira, where we met with the "soba" (traditional chief of Kumbira village). In this meeting we also presented the project and asked the soba for his permission to establish an experimental nursery within the community lands (Figure 1). The "soba" kindly indicated a suitable parcel of land that we could occupied for this task and the local people we could work with.
Figure 1. Aimy Cáceres and Michael Mills meeting with Soba (Chief) Gibala from Kumbira village to discuss the nursery. The chief welcome this initiative and granted a suitable parcel of land for this purpose.
We set up the nursery with the help of two local workers, Arbino and Avelino. With the assiatnce of Michael Mills we collected saplings of native trees in the areas where old-growth forest was still present (Figure 2). Then, these saplings were planted in plastic bags and placed in the nursery that had a shade constructed by Avelino and Arbino using Inga vera branches and oil palm leaves (Figure 3).

I interviewed Wandmacker back in 2008 / 2009 regarding his first 3D film, My Bloody Valentine 3D (2009), and in our new conversation we discuss scoring for 3D, in addition to the score's orchestral-electronic design, and Alexandre Aja, maker of some of the bleakest statements on humanity. (Go see Furia. Not happy film. Nope.)
My review of the Lakeshore soundtrack album (score only) will appear in an upcoming issue of Rue Morgue. Though not as overtly theme-based as Cry_Wolf and My Bloody Valentine, it is a fun score, with a clear emphasis on Angry Fish Wanting Meat.
Speaking of Rue Morgue Magazine, those wanting further details on the 2010 as well as Joe Dante's 1978 version of Piranha should check out the current August issue, which is loaded with details, and another beautiful cover.
It's actually not fair to use the term "version" because the 2010 film isn't a sequel nor remake of anything; it's just another killer fish tale, with its director and writers drawing the bets ideas from classic 70s drive-in fare, which also includes the last entry, Piranha 2: The Spawning, where the fish fly. (Part Duh was directed by then-newcomer James Cameron, and featured a score by veteran genre composer Stelvio Cipriani.)
Next week in Part 2 of this peek at the Piranha franchise, I'll have reviews of Dante's 1978 film, as well as Pino Donaggio's score, as well as Roger Corman's 1995 cash-in remake for cable TV.

Are All Calories Equal?
We're often asked, "Is a calorie a calorie?" According to the laws of thermodynamics, yes, all calories are created equal. However, the way the body breaks down carbohydrates, protein and fat, the three main sources of calories in our diet and the effect they have on our bodies differ vastly.
Fats slow digestion, deliver important fat-soluble vitamins to the body, and
provide important building blocks for all our cells. Dietary fats provide about 9 calories per gram but, as you likely already know, some fats are better for our health than others.
Protein also keeps us feeling fuller for longer by slowing digestion, but its primary role in the body is to maintain and build new cells. Protein is beneficial during weight loss, as it contributes to satiety and offsets the amount of lean muscle that is burned for energy, in addition to fat, during a calorie deficit. All proteins provide about 4 calories per gram.
When it comes to differentiating calories, carbohydrates are by far the most complex due to the fact that our bodies use the different types of carbohydrates (such as fiber, starch and sugar) in different ways. Carbohydrates are used by the body as a quick source of energy, particularly for the brain, liver and muscles. All carbohydrates (with the exception of fiber, which our body can't digest) provide 4 calories per gram. But just as there are healthier fats and higher-quality proteins, there are varying degrees of carbohydrate quality.
Examination of the "Calorie" Complete
It's clear that a calorie from fat is not the same as a calorie from protein or
carbohydrate. As you can see, a calorie of carbohydrate is not the same as a calorie from fat or protein, nor are all carbohydrate calories created equal. As a general rule of thumb, we recommend consuming the majority of your calories from minimally or unprocessed whole foods since, ultimately, the quality of what we eat determines the quantity of calories we consume, which impacts not only our weight but also our overall health and well-being.
What Happens When You Over-Consume? Using the Analogy we shared using the gas tank.
Each individual can only handle x-# of calories per sitting. Even if the individual ran a marathon and likely has a caloric deficit from that prolonged activity, he can still only manage x-# of calories at the post-marathon meal. Any additional calories will spill over into the system and eventually convert into fat. That's powerful information.
Conversely, using the same scenario, the individual likely does have a caloric deficit for the day, therefore can/should intake more calories throughout the day without the same effect of spillage.
The Answer:
More frequent properly portioned meals vs. a really big meal because "I deserve it since I just ran a marathon." Make sense?
Your body assesses your needs in "real-time." Your blood sugar levels fluctuate instead of holding steady, which can result in a loss of lean body mass. In other words, it's not fat that's being lost but potentially muscle. And we don't want to lose muscle. Lowering your lean body mass means your body burns less calories. Not good.
Eating when your blood sugar is low (because you've hardly eaten anything all day) causes you to release more insulin—which means more fat is produced.
You then get into a vicious cycle of your body losing lean body mass, producing more fat, and burning less calories.
The Solution: Within Day Energy Balance
It's better to keep your energy balanced by staying within a range of calories through the day, making sure not to overeat AND to not create a huge calorie
deficit through a lack of food. Eating more than 300 to 400 calories in a meal will likely cause a surplus of energy. Creating a calorie deficit of 300 to 400 calories will cause the problems mentioned up above (depending on your body size). For example, if your body needs 300 calories in a 3-4 hour period, and you're not feeding it more calories after that 3-4 hour period is up, your body is going to start looking for energy in your lean body mass.
More Muscle, More Calories Burned?
Lean Body Mass (LBM)
LBM is important for many aspects of health, not to mention holding up your skeleton! LBM is where fat cells travel to be used as fuel and out through the blood stream. Having LBM tissue means you have a better opportunity to burn more fat. Back to the car analogy; A Ferrari has a massive engine that burns lots of high quality fuel. It is a beast! Conversely, a Hyundai has a small engine that burns small amounts of low-grade fuel. It's a sloth. You want
your body to be a Ferrari!
Muscle Metabolism
Resting metabolic rates are higher in people with more lean body mass, or
muscle. Claims have been made that muscle burns fat at rates upwards of 30
times that of fat. However, this appears to not be the case. Fitness author
Christian Finn writes that for every pound of muscle you have, your body will
burn about 6 calories per day. This is referred to as the daily metabolic rate.
Fat Metabolism
Fat metabolism, or lipolysis, has a daily metabolic rate of about two calories, according to Finn. Therefore muscle has a daily metabolic rate of about three times that of fat. This isn't quite as high as previous claims, however it is still a valid reason to build more muscle and decrease fat.
Improving General Metabolism
Metabolism is a product of resting metabolic rate. Because resting metabolic rate is influenced by lean body mass and physical activity, increasing these factors will improve metabolism. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends 150 minutes of aerobic activity spaced throughout the week. A well-balanced exercise program also includes strength training because of muscle's higher daily metabolic rate, the American College of Sports Medicine reports. Strength training can also fight some of the natural muscle atrophy that occurs with aging.
By increasing your percentage of lean body mass through exercise, you'll increase you resting metabolic rate.
Can You Convert Fat Tissue to Muscle Tissue?
Here's the Cold, Hard Truth
It's physiologically impossible to turn fat into muscle because they're two
entirely different types of body tissue with different types of cells (fat is made
up of adipose tissue, while muscle is made of proteins).
So fat is fat and muscle is muscle
The Difference
Muscle mass and fat are two different animals: Muscle is active tissue that burns calories around the clock even as you sleep, kind of like an engine running in neutral. When you move around, you burn more calories, just like a car will consume more gas the faster you go. Fat, on the other hand, is just a storage of excess energy. It does nothing but sit there with its sole goal in life to be a spare tire around your waist until you put in the effort to burn it off.
Body fat is not particularly useful except as padding against bumps, as insulation to preserve warmth. You need some body fat to stay healthy of course, but unless you're walking around with razor-sharp abs and sunken, fat- depleted cheeks year-round, you have nothing to fear.
Does A Pound of Fat Weight More Than a Pound of Muscle (LBM)?
A pound is a pound. A pound of feathers and a pound of lead are the same pound, but the density and appearance of the pound are what differ.
A pound of fat is blobby and dimply. A pound of muscle is dense and compact.
The myth that "everyone knows that muscle weighs more than fat" is just that, a myth.
Where Does Lost Fat "Go"?
The Truth
The short answer is that our bodies convert molecules in fat cells to usable forms of energy (fuel), thus shrinking the cells. But getting this to happen isn't just about exercising. Understanding how our bodies perform this process requires a little more detail.
Weight loss hinges on burning calories. Calories measure the potential energy
in food you eat in the form of fats, proteins and carbohydrates. One pound of body fat = 3,500 potential calories of energy. A pound of fat is available energy, once you teach your body how to access it, that is.
Back to the Car Analogy
If our bodies were cars, energy would be the gas to keep everything running. Lounging in front of the television is like cruising Main St., while sprinting around a track is more like drag racing at maximum speeds. In short, more work means more energy.
The body uses some of those calories to digest food. Once the food is broken down into its respective parts of carbohydrates, fats and proteins, it either uses the remaining energy or converts it to fat for storage in fat cells. Fat cells live in adipose tissue, which basically acts like an internal gas station, storing away fuel reserves.
The Opportunity
To lose weight, you must burn more calories, or energy, than you consume to start using up that fuel reserve. Essentially, you're not ingesting enough calories to fuel your additional exercise, so your body must pull from fat stores.
This is also accomplished with meal timing, giving your body a chance to pull form the fat reserves as a fuel source.
How Many Habits Should You Break Per Week?
We Suggest You Shoot for One Per Week
Habits run our daily life. Pretty much everything you do is based on a habit you've developed at some point in your life. Some habits are helpful, while others can also work against you. Even worse – there are a few "bad habits" that can have a negative, long-term impact on
your capacity to live a fulfilling life.
Smoking. Hoarding. Eating junk food. Drinking too much alcohol. Even spending too much time on your computer or phone. We all have those bad habits we'd like to break.
Fortunately, it is possible to eliminate a negative routine – all you need is a plan-of-action.
How to get rid of bad habits in five distinct phases:
Plan for the Habit Change
Understand Your Habit Loop/ How to Form a Habit
Build a Support System
Overcome Challenges
Develop the Antidote to the Bad Habit IE: Bad Habit: Drinking Diet Coke instead of water throughout the day. Antidote: Replacing Diet Coke with water. New Habit Commitment: "I will only allow myself to have a Diet Coke after I have consumed at least 64 ounces of water during my day."

Bargains on Luxury Cars Dwindle This December
Now May Still Be a Good Time To Buy That Dream Drive
Here's one of the auto industry's hoariest marketing cliches: "It's a great time to buy a new car." But just because a line is overused doesn't make it wrong.
You may have noticed that the annual barrage of Yuletide car sell-a-thons has begun. Lexus has wheeled out its "December to Remember" promotion, which has become to year-end auto retailing what "The Nutcracker" is to Christmastime family entertainment. Cadillac is running its fourth annual "Seasons Best" promotion. Mercedes-Benz...

I bet you take roads for granted. You use them in your car, on your bike, hell, you might even skip down the middle of them at 4 a.m. after a particularly frivolous night out. You don't think anything of them unless there are potholes and roadworks and traffic lights that are conspiring against you. You only notice roads when something goes wrong.
Well, what if there were no roads? What if, instead of that rush hour junction on the A10 and that cyclist who always cuts you up at the lights, you had two rivers to cross and a three-mile stretch of undergrowth to hack through with a machete? That was the reality I faced when I spent three months in the Manu National Park in the Amazon Rainforest in Peru.
Admittedly, I didn't have to make that four-hour journey every day, but I did it enough for it…

Gets a private look at the Spy Museum along with Michelle and Sasha. They're back at the White House now. Nice little night out.
How come no one in the press is talking about his weight loss? Here he is coming back from the museum and he's wearing his mom jeans which are now baggy. It's hard not to notice unless you have blinders on.
This is not a happy couple.
The video of the neck-nuzzling and MO's reaction is sad.
The Spy Museum?! Aha! MO is planning some international intrigue while in Spain.
His clothes are generally baggy see his pants yesterday in Detroit but:
Dec 2009 looks good
April 23, 2010 starting to look gaunt
I think he looks find of washed out all the time. How come we never get a checkup report–isn't the last one the one during the campaign when he had a note from his doctor saying he'd be a swell president, but no details?
How does the WH press "corpse" fathom that poor excuse of a WH Press Secretary, Robert( er-ah–um-er-and "obviously"etc) Where do Presidents dig up such sorry spokesmen?
I am no Gibbs lover, either. He seems superficial, condescending, blinks a lot, and is paid to lie or mislead. I also don't think he does know–is in the inner circle–when he says he doesn't know. He tries to be affable, but comes off as supremely irritating and not very bright, which probably helps.

I have an application with two forms, both forms need to be able to be read by anonymous, 1 form only created by group A and the other form only created by group B. I have set form security that way but both groups can create both forms through the xpage!
Any help is appreciated. What am i missing? I have done searches for xpages and security and xpages and acl to no avail.

Anyone know how to set security on an xpage?
Posted by Mark Hughes at 8:26 AM

Security on a XPages Web App is no different to that on what we now call a classic Domino Web App.
On XPages there is added document level security through using the 'acl' property on a Panel for example. Go to the 'All Properties' tab on the Properties view and that acl property will be there under 'data'.
Play around with it to suit your needs and if things don't work out get on the Notes 85 Forum - http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/nd85forum.nsf?OpenDatabase

LGBT: Lawrence Khong stirs up a storm
The latest post by Lawrence Khong has stirred up a storm at sea which I hope do not make landfall here. May be at some point if not already he would be seen as homophobic but not yet for me. To me he lacks love and yes, he is not clear what love is. But who truly knows what love is anyway? We are all learning and the journey lasts a lifetime. So much of great literature is about love, wondering, struggling over and sometimes enlightening the path. Besides Lawrence Khong doesn't insist that 377A should be enforced. He only ask for it not to be repealed. He is not homophobic as he only resist LGBT from achieving greater space. He will not try to claw back what the LGBT community have gained. He is standing firm but not attacking. LGBT activists are over reacting. Even if Lawrence Khong doesn't or do not know how to love LGBTs, at least he doesn't hate them like LGBT types are from the many comments they are leaving behind all over the place.
Now why are we hearing only him shout about this matter from the tower? Where are the other pastors except from that one church that is gladly welcoming LGBT?
I think Lawrence Khong is afraid that the quiescent majority which are not LGBT friendly will over time turn friendly. When that time comes, 377A will go. To him that would be a very dark day for Singapore because moral decline precedes decline in everything good and worthwhile. In other words, Singapore would cease to exist as it has no moral right to survive. I do not happen to agree with this thesis.
I do not buy his crusading stance, and I think it would not work either. If he wanted to fight this, he should have decades ago. A new and morally liberal generation has appeared on the scene and it is only a matter of time ageing moral conservatives leave the scene. Unfortunately LGBTs are impatient and want to bring forward that day as soon as possible. They can't wait to have more freedom to truly live as equal with the rest of us. Is that asking for too much?
Both camps can go on arguing and calling each other names but none of them decide where this society will go. Quietly the politicians will sense the ground and when the time comes to repeal 377A they will not lose votes doing so. But I don't think it would be that easy. The Muslims have been quiet letting Lawrence Khong carry on with his fight. If anything they are even more anti-gay than the Christians. LGBTs haven't been very clever picking their fight. Unlike the Christians, the Malay Muslim community occupy a special position socially and politically. That could be the barrier they could not overcome until Malaysia and Indonesia also become LGBT friendly. Therefore Lawrence Khong didn't need worry. There are more pressing challenges awaiting him starting with explaining and especially showing God's love. Far away from here Pope Francis is doing a wonderful job at that. Why not learn from him?
