Announcing The Launch of Next Apartment's New Website - www.nextapartment.ca
Thorold, Ontario, January 24, 2011 - Landlord Web Solutions Inc. is pleased to announce the successful launch of Next Apartment's new website www.nextapartment.ca. This new website is designed and built on the LIFT System, a proprietary content management system that was designed by Landlord Web Solutions to exclusively power rental websites.
"During my discussions with Ingrid Tanner it became clear that she wanted something unique," began Jason Leonard, the Director of Business Development at Landlord Web Solutions. "She desired a website that was both easy to use and professional. She wanted to develop a new brand for her buildings and in the end, her goals were achieved."
The LIFT System has enabled Ingrid to self-manager her own website by providing her an easy to use control panel that allows her to create and update listings, add content and generate news updates. She is now able to have full control over her website without any additional costs.
"During this project our team was also able to help Ingrid in branding her new website," added Dave Koski, Creative Director at Landlord Web Solutions. "After Jason and Ingrid brainstormed a unique company name – Next Apartment – I was able to develop a slogan and logo for the website. Ingrid can now take that logo and messaging and extend it into her signage and print advertising, thus creating a brand for her company."
Next Apartment also developed a mobile-friendly website – www.nextapartment.ca/mobile.
About Landlord Web Solutions Inc.:
Landlord Web Solutions Inc. was established in 2010 as Canada's only online marketing and website development company exclusive to the rental industry.

About five years ago, I first met Tommy Waltz. One of my coworkers previously was involved in open air preaching and was looking for an opportunity to rekindle the flame. He asked me to go with him. To be honest, I was curious. I trusted my friend, I knew his theology, I knew he wasn't going to be a jerk preacher, so I went. And through this I met Tommy.
That day, we went looking for a place for my coworker and Tommy to preach during a festival going on downtown. Tommy and I were paired up to walk around sharing the gospel one on one before the preaching. During this time, Tommy once stood up to preach to a small crowd of homeless folks waiting outside a shelter. I noticed that he was not hateful, but clear, compassionate, and yet direct. When he preached again later, it stood out to me that he was biblical, actually preaching through a text in public, and also pleading the gospel with people who stopped.
Honestly, I was impressed by the quality of the preaching. I thought to myself "If street preaching were to be done, this is the way it ought to be done." However, I was not fully convinced in my mind it was the best method.
When we moved to NJ one year ago, we entered an area of the country plagued by false religion, ideological secularism, and a general lack of belief. Since living here, we have seen the great need for the kingdom, and have been emotionally burdened by the lostness surrounding us. And yet, when I heard that Tommy desired to come serve our church plant, I didn't know what to think.
In fact, I talked with Pastor Carlos, our lead church planter, and made the following statement "I have a genuine love for Tommy and I highly respect him and his ministry, however, I wonder if this is the best method for sharing the gospel. Will people be offended by the gospel, or by the method, that is my question?"
I asked brothers who had a heart for the gospel what their thoughts were about street preaching as an evangelistic method, many shared similar sentiments, some were uncertain either way, some were just curious to know what it would be like.
To be honest, I really struggled, even to the day Tommy arrived, with what would happen, if it was right (I would use the word "best" but in my heart I really meant "right.")
I decided to become curious instead of cynical and drove around Passaic, Clifton and we finally found people walking around in Paterson. We shared the gospel one on one with a few folks for about an hour then found a place for Tommy to set up at the corner of Crooks and Main Ave.
Within a few moments of preaching, a man stopped to listen and expressed a real desire to "get this right." Pray for him, his name is Carlos. As I listened to Tommy and watched the people passing by, many stopping for moments to see what this was all about, I heard Tommy faithfully exposit scripture (his text that day was Psalm 1) as he made appeals to people around us. He has a good method on cycling through key elements of the gospel as the stoplight changed, or a new crowd popped up at an ATM or a bus stop.
God was softening my heart and showing me my lack of faith. I wrote an email that night to Pastor Carlos confessing my sin and lack of faith before God over Tommy's visit.
Over the next three days, God did some great things. Everywhere we went, God provided gospel opportunities and divine appointments. People conversed with us, they opened up. Some didn't. If there were people angered by the preaching, there weren't many. Many seemed curious, or just kept walking by. However, we did have the opportunity to have genuine gospel conversations with a lot of people, people we may not have otherwise met. Tommy remained faithful to the texts he preached from, sometimes preaching well over an hour.
The conversations we were able to have showed us the great barriers we will have to overcome through gospel persuasion. A majority of people had no concept of sin, or thought God cared little about sin. Catholics and Muslims have this in common – sin is no great deal to God as long as you do good. Very few people knew much about Jesus other than his name. People were clueless about the gospel, about why Jesus died. Many thought everyone will go to heaven. Many Muslims said that our religions are the same.
Tommy said over and over again that this type of ministry is a humble and also humbling ministry. God's witnesses are bond-servants to those who are hearing the gospel message. We must maintain that attitude of a servant as we share and preach. That has stuck with me.
The weekend also opened my eyes to the need for this type of ministry. As pastors, Carlos and I are praying for God to raise up evangelists from Christ Our Hope Church.
I was reminded of a lesson I learned earlier from Scripture. In 2 Timothy 4, Paul makes an injunction to his disciple Timothy – "do the work of an evangelist." I was reminded how pastorly and churchly the work of an evangelist really is. This weekend only served to increase my passion for sharing the gospel with others.
As a pastor and church planter, I want to endorse Tommy's ministry and recommend that more pastors and churches pray how they might embrace a preaching ministry like his alongside their evangelistic strategy. Taking this step must come with humility, love, service, faith, courage, zeal, brokenness – I pray that, like me, the Lord would bring these about in your heart.
Tommy is a man submitted to his elders at Open Door Church, and he gives a priority to serving the church planting teams and church plants of our mother church. While he has formalized his ministry – Gospel of God Ministries – and he needs financial support (please support him), I do not consider his ministry parachurch, or outside the church.
In fact, in my mind, he is no more parachurch than the Apostle Paul's ministry. Paul was a church planter who did the work of an evangelist, and he was intimately connected with local churches, including his sending church in Antioch. While Tommy is not a church planter in that sense, he is doing the work of an evangelist in the context of local church ministry. He is a servant to churches. This is a strength for his ministry and a healthy model to follow.
I look forward to his return, Lord willing, next year. Please consider how you might pray for and support his ministry.
Above all, dear pastor friend, consider how you might "do the work of an evangelist" and dear sister church how you might fulfill your call to "make disciples of all nations."
With love and respect,
Wesley L. Handy
Pastor of Missions and Community Outreach
Christ Our Hope Church

A wink
with a twinkle that took my breath away.
So pure, bright, and simple it makes me forget the day,
A day of sweat and blisters, loading bales of hay.
The pure bright twinkle makes thoughts race, my neck tingle
As the hay's rich aroma settles in to mingle,
With the twinkling as the rhythmic traces jingle.
Yes, that pure bright twinkle transported me afar,
So far that the old mule's bray couldn't begin to mar
Tingling imaginings caused by the winking star.

Egyptian goal-machine Mohamed Salah has equaled a Premier League record of 31 goals in a 38 game campaign with three games to spare.
Salah equaled this record when he scored Liverpool's second goal in their two-all draw against West Bromwich Albion.
West Brom produced a "useless comeback" by scoring two late goals to take a point at the Hawthorns, says Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.
The point has saved West Brom from relegation even if for a single day – they will be relegated if Swansea beat Man City on Sunday.
"I don't think that point will help West Brom massively, it is a complete waste of points. They don't need it, we would have needed it," Klopp added.
"They are happy now, we are not happy. We stay in the league, they don't stay in the league – it is a strange situation."

It was not possible to get our small SUV in our garage when a roof box was on. As near as I can tell, Thule only offers 15" high boxes for my vehicle. This inno box measures 13" high which means it fits through our 7' garage door while on the car. I bought it for this reason alone but the quality is very impressive. I look forward to many road trips with it. It arrived flawlessly and was well packaged.

I've been driving around with my new cargo box for a week now, including highway driving, and my gas mileage has not been impacted. We have crossbars that were installed by our dealer, and there is no wiggle or noise from the box mount when I drive. The box is roomy and water tight. Fits our needs perfectly.

This got great reviews from experienced roof storage owners so ee bought it. I gave 4 stars because the closing side bars are unwieldy. Prob not an issue if it didnt open on both sides. it also dropped our mileage over 2 galons per mile, this may be typical but I dont know. It has however been so useful for us as our nissan frontier is smaller inside now all our goodies can be locked in the storage unit leaving our cab roomier for kids and pets. Also leaves the bed open for toys.

Inspiration – Olivia Palermo
Apparently I like to wear this outfit onsite with clients. Here is a photo of me in Minnesota a few weeks ago. You can see the bell sleeves even better in the photo I posted of almost this exact outfit (just different necklace) last year at customer in Dallas by clicking here.
Wow! I just looked at the old post myself and you can really see a difference in my hair color! I went from super blond doing it myself with store bought dye to getting a professional to do balayage so I can go for way longer between dye sessions. So much happier with how easy upkeep is now. Can dark roots please stay in style for a few more years?

Yes, the Vatican Can Arrest People
The Vatican on Monday announced the arrest of a Spanish high-ranking priest and a laywoman for allegedly leaking confidential documents to the authors of two new books that promise to expose more corruption and intrigue at the Holy See.
"Divulging confidential documents is a crime under the criminal code of the Vatican City State," the Vatican remarked in a press statement.
Aimed at stemming a new scandal — the first since the "Vatileaks" affair which saw Benedict XVI's butler jailed for leaking private papal papers – the strict move shows a less known aspect of the Vatican.
Explainer: How Powerful Is the Vatican?
There is more than prayers in the tiny walled enclave within Rome. As an independent state, the Vatican has its own judicial system, a 130-strong Gendarmerie (military force) in addition to the Swiss Guards (basically the Pope's bodyguards) and can detain prisoners.
Under the Lateran Pacts, an agreement made in 1929 between the Kingdom of Italy and the Holy See, the Vatican was recognized as independent state, actually the world's smallest by by area and population.
Until 2008, the Vatican accepted Italian law automatically. Now it examines laws passed by the Italian parliament before accepting them.
Pope Francis' First Mass: Photos
Located just to the south of St. Peter's Basilica, the papal jail is mainly used for pretrial detention.
The prison, currently accommodating Monsignor Lucio Ángel Vallejo Balda, the Spanish priest arrested on Monday, has held several guests lately — at least by Vatican standards.
Last year, during the Christmas holidays, a member of the Femen protest movement spent two nights in one of the cells after taking her top off and "kidnapping" the baby Jesus from the Nativity scene in St. Peter's Square.
Another cell was occupied during the same period by a man who climbed the facade of St. Peter's Basilica in protest against European economic policies.
Perhaps the most famous inmate in modern times is Paolo Gabriele, pope Benedict's personal butler .
He was arrested on May 23, 2012 for leaking the sensitive documents that gave rise to the Vatileaks scandal and sentenced to 18 months in prison "in the name of His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI, gloriously reigning."
In contrast to the usual arrangement under which prisoners serve time in an Italian prisons, Gabriele served his sentence in the Vatican until he was pardoned by Pope Benedict on Dec. 22, 2012.
Vatican: Pope Does Not Have Brain Cancer
Life wasn't easy for a prisoner of the Vatican, according to Gabriele.
He complained about a small detention cell inside police headquarters with scarcely room to raise his arms. During the first 15 days of his detention, lights were on 24 hours a day, he said.

The Most Memorable Skin, Hair and Makeup Looks of 2016, from Elle Fanning to Alicia Keys
Glitter for grown-ups. Wet hair. Matchy-matchy makeup. Or no makeup at all....
These were just a few of the beauty statements that defined 2016. As the year draws to a close (and not a moment too soon!), let's reflect back on the red carpet looks we won't soon forget:
Elle Fanning's Glitter Eyes
Glitter makeup was a major runway trend for fall 2016, and Elle Fanning was one of the earliest and best real-life adopters. At the Saint Laurent show in February, she paired a generous dusting of glitter all over (and under) her eyes with black liner, fresh skin and pink stained lips.
Elle is wearing: Cream eye colour in Black • Glitter in Silver • Glitter in Gold
Alicia Keys' Bare Face
Alicia Keys started a #nomakeup movement after penning an essay on Lenny and stepping out at the BET Awards with a completely bare face. When you have skin as flawless as hers, it's no doubt an easier statement to make—but still a welcome and needed one after 2015's heavy-handed Insta-clones.
Bella Hadid's Non-touring
Speaking of contouring, Bella Hadid stepped out in Cannes with a fresher, dewier interpretation that has been dubbed "non-touring." There's some subtle sculpting, but we can still see her real, healthy skin texture, and the way it catches the light is sooo beautiful.
Bella is wearing: Moisturizer • Foundation in 3 Fair • Concealer in 2 Fair • Contour and highlighter • Blush in First Love • Powder in 1 Fair • Eyeshadow in The Sophisticate • Eyeshadow in The Dolce Vita • Mascara in Glossy Black • Lipstick in Penelope Pink
Jessica Biel's Matchy Liner
Remember when matchy-matchy was considered a faux pas? Not anymore. As Jessica Biel demonstrated at the Independent Spirit Awards, wearing a liner in the same shade as your dress can have gorgeous results—especially in this vibrant blue.
Emily Ratajkowski's Smoky Eyes
Smoky eyes will never go out of style, but this year, a new way of wearing them went mainstream. Emily Ratajkowski's pair at the Emmys is one of the best examples in both colour and shape. The product goes all the way around the eyes, in an exaggerated feline shape, and is a seamless transition from turquoise to navy.
Emily is wearing: Foundation in Golden Tan • Concealer in Medium • Eyeshadow primer • Powder in Deep • Blush in Chroma • Highlighter and bronzer • Eyeshadow in 2 • Eyeshadow in 3 • Eyeliner in Navy • Eyeliner in Aqua • Mascara in Black • Brow pencil in Brunette • Lip liner in Secret Agent • Lipstick in Exhibitionist
Taylor Swift's Platinum Hair and Vampy Lips
We can no longer accuse Taylor Swift of playing it too safe. For this year's Met Gala, she rocked not only a new platinum blonde hair colour, but also a deep, vampy, matte lipstick (another one of 2016's big runway trends).
Taylor is wearing: Lip colour in Oh Lady
Naomi Campbell's Glitter Lips
Elle Fanning wan't the only one to embrace glitter this year. At the MTV Video Music Awards, Naomi Campbell wore it all over her lips in a vibrant ruby red, proving that the sparkly stuff can work at any age (she is 46!). Doll-like lashes and sleek, straight hair completed the look.
Naomi is wearing: Lipstick in Vermillion Venom
Cara Delevingne's Braided Part
Cara Delevingne always brings an element of edginess to the red carpet, and for the MTV Movie Awards, it was a miniature braid. But it didn't just hang there—it snaked down her part and darted behind one ear to add interest to her tousled hair.
Cara is wearing: Serum • Moisturizer • Foundation • Powder • Blush in Praline • Bronzer in Seduction • Eyeshadow in Peach • Eyeshadow in Lilac • Eyeliner in Caviar • Eyeshadow in Deep Night (to smudge eyeliner) • Brow gel • Mascara • Lipstick in Stripped
Rooney Mara's Futuristic Beauty
When Rooney Mara walked the Oscars red carpet in this structural hairstyle (there are three buns down the back), more than a few people noticed a resemblance to Rey from Star Wars. But equally forward-thinking was her makeup, which emphasized both eyes and lips on top of insanely flawless skin.
Rooney is wearing: Serum • Foundation in 10 Beige and 12 Beige Rosé • Powder • Concealer in SC-2 (to highlight under brows) • Blush in Rose Pètale • Brow pencil in Brun Cendré • Waterproof mascara in Noir • Lip liner in Cinnamon • Lipstick in La Sensuelle
Emilia Clarke's Natural Brows
After a few seasons of overworked brows, the pendulum is finally swinging back to a less precise and more natural—even ungroomed!—look. Emilia Clarke, at this Game of Thrones premiere, exemplifies the new softness. Increasingly, we're seeing celebs who are just leaving their brows alone.
Kristen Stewart's Grunge Glam
Pairing a bleached-blonde bob and intentional roots with creative, sophisticated makeup was a game-changing combination for Kristen Stewart in Cannes. The new grunge-meets-glamour look brought a fresh attitude to the red carpet, and solidified her new identity apart from the Twilight series.
Kristen is wearing: Serum • Foundation in 30 Beige • Powder in No. 20 • Eyeliner in Noir Intense • Liquid liner in Noir • Mascara in 10 Noir • Brow powder in 50 Brun • Lip liner in Rouge Profond • Lipstick in Rouge Charnel
Ciara's Silver Hair
Metallics were everywhere at this year's Met Gala, but nobody committed like Ciara. She took the theme to a whole other level by sporting bright silver hair, styled in finger waves and adorned with matching bobby pins.
Ciara is wearing: Brow pencil in Chocolate Brown • Eyeshadow in Sirocco • Eyeliner in Celestial • Eyeshadow in Smoky Nudes • Eyeshadow in Sun Worship • Eyeshadow in Let It Shine • Mascara in Deep Black
Elizabeth Olsen's Highlights
The standout hair colour of the year belonged to Elizabeth Olsen. At the I Saw the Light premiere, she debuted a wheaty, sun-kissed shade achieved via a technique her colourist calls "flamboyage." Similar to balayage, the highlights are painted on by hand, but with lighter ends and darker roots.
Elizabeth is wearing: Bronzer in Bronze Age • Eyeshadow in Copper Sparkle • Eyeliner in Black/Brown
Janelle Monáe's Double Buns
At the Critics' Choice Awards, Janelle Monáe had the prettiest throwback to the '90s in the form of double buns. Though the trend made waves earlier in the year at Coachella, this time, it had a new sophistication—thanks to red lipstick, tight waves and just the right amount of frizz.
Zoey Deutch's Red Eyeshadow
Many celebs experimented with red- and burgundy-toned eye makeup this year, but nobody wore them better than Zoey Deutch at the Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic. In another example of matchiness, she repeated the tone of her floral dress all over her lids. With fresh skin, nude lips and big brows, it's such a fresh way to wear colour.
Zara Larsson's Wet Hair
Wet hair made a splash on the red carpet in 2016, and the way Zara Larsson wore hers at the MTV Video Music Awards was my favourite. In an unexpected grey hue and slicked back off her face, it gave her major mermaid vibes.
Lupita Nyon'go's Head Wrap
Lupita Nyong'o, who is already known for wearing colourful makeup, added a new element to her ensemble at the Queen of Katwe premiere: an oversized head scarf. "A makeup artist's dream," according to Nick Barose, the piece drew even more attention to the pink lipstick and purple shadow, while nodding to her Kenyan roots. (We saw a similar wrap on Alicia Keys!)
Lupita is wearing: Eyeshadow in Mauve Cherie • Eyeliner • Mascara • Lip balm • Lip liner • Lipstick in Rose Lancôme
Lily Aldridge's Gold Brows
Leave it to model Lily Eldridge to make bold, gold brows look beautiful and chic. At the Met Gala, she wore her gilded arches with matching liner, natural lashes and lots of gleaming, healthy skin.
Lady Gaga's David Bowie Tribute
Last but not least, who could forget Lady Gaga going full Bowie at the Grammys? Her homage to the late musician featured a flaming red mullet, bleached brows and bedazzled blue lids.
Lady Gaga is wearing: Concealer in 01 Bavarian Cream // Foundation in 05 Light Porcelain // Powder in 05 Porcelain // Contour in 26 Tranquil // Blush in 04 Love at First Sight // Highlighter in 01 Stardust // Eyeliner in 29 My Boyfriend's Jeans // Eyeliner in 24 Surfer Babe // Eyeliner in 05 Navy Baby // Mascara in Ultra Black // SwarovskiCrystalembellishments // Lip liner in 1 Bright Coral // Lipstick in No. 28 Just Married // Lip gloss in 07 You Fancy
What was your favourite beauty moment of 2016?

'The River Teme flows from its source just inside the Welsh border on Cilfaesty Hill, four miles south of Newtown, Powys for approximately 75 miles to its confluence with the River Severn on the southern extremity of the boundary of the loyal city of Worcester. The Way described in this book is a route of just under one hundred miles following the river from its mouth, by a modem midland city with a troubled historic background, to its source high on the side of a lonely mystic welsh hillside; a journey twisting through some of the most beautiful, quiet and unspoilt countryside in our lovely country. The views, the countryside and the villages along the route will delight followers on the Way.'

Smooth as Sylk
"I'm coming from the DJ point of view, so the drums haveto be rocking."
Like many globe-trotting DJs, King Britt appreciates fineclothes, good eats, and a bangin' party. But get him back to hishome studio in his native Philadelphia, and the man formerly knownas Sylkworm — DJ for '80s jazz-hop act Digable Planets— eschews such pleasures for the mechanical joys of theMPC-2000 and Roland VS-1680. It stands to reason that with aprolific output including remixes and tracks under the monikersScuba, Oba Funke, and Sylk 130, Britt is obviously not slackingoff. He's remixed Macy Gray, Tori Amos, Brandy, and Zap Mama andcharted dance hits like "Strong Song" (as King &Wink), "Supernatural" (as Firefly), and "TribalConfusion" (as E-Culture) with his Ovum Records partner,mega-DJ Josh Wink.
But the project closest to Britt's heart is Sylk 130, thefunk-soul collective he launched in 1998 with the release ofWhen the Funk Hits the Fan (Ovum), a loving andsurprisingly authentic musical tribute to the late-'70s soulplatters that Britt heard while he was growing up in Philly. Thenew Sylk 130 release Re-Members Only (Six Degrees) is asimilarly conceptual homage, this time paying respect to the'80s generation. In fact, the album features cameoperformances from several '80s singers, including Yaz'sAlison Moyet, ABC's Martin Fry, and Alma "Last Night a DJSaved My Life" Horton, as well as guest vocals by disco divaKathy Sledge, Pos and Trugoy of De La Soul, and Ursula Rucker.
"The first Sylk 130 album is basically about myfoundation," says Britt, "what my parents force-fed me,and what constitutes my roots. Re-Members Only is aboutthe period in the '80s when I really discovered my own tastein music — everything from the Smiths to New Order to ThisMortal Coil." Britt says he'll set the next installment ofhis trilogy in the future, with a cyber-rock-soul vibe he likens to"Stereolab meets Blade Runner."
Meanwhile, Britt-ophiles can chew on Re-Members Only, asoul-food feast of booming Linn and Oberheim DMX — approveddrum samples, retro synthesizer flavors, gorgeous chamber-stringarrangements, and some incendiary vocal performances, such asMoyet's soaring star turn on the single "Happiness."Other highlights include "For Love," with one of thelast sax performances of the late Philly great Grover WashingtonJr., and the smooth piano work of R&B producer James Poyser(Eric Benet, Erykah Badu) on "Incident on a Couch, PartII." Unlike many DJs-turned-producers, Britt is not contentto let half-committed singers simply riff over static two-chordbreakbeats. As a result, Britt and his fabulous friends have giventhe electronic soul genre what it most desperately needed: greatsongs, baby, great songs.
A lot of artists are doing '80s revival records now,so your timing for Re-Members Only is right on the money.
When I started working on the album, I was worried. I did it twoyears ago and I was trying to stay ahead of the curve. I knew the'80s thing was coming, and boom — now I'm right in theheart of it. Everyone's embracing it.
It seems like you used a lot of early digital drum machinesounds. Are those actual Linn drums or samples on thealbum?
I'm heavily into sampled sounds. When you sample drum soundsfrom records, you get so much more than just the sound of a drum.You get that particular room sound and how they EQ'd and processedit. So 90 percent of those sounds on the record were drum hitstaken from records. There's only one full drum loop on there, and Ican't talk about that! The drum sounds on the track for "Oneand Only" with Martin Fry is a Linn drum I sampled; themachine belongs to Grover Washington Jr.'s son. But I EQ'd the Linndrum sounds as I sampled them so they'd sound a little heavier.Drums are my thing; I'm coming from the DJ point of view, so thedrums have to be rocking.
On "Happiness," my boy Ted Thomas played live drumsinto my Roland VS-1680. I EQ'd his breakbeats, processed them, andthen sampled and cut them up with the Akai MPC-2000 XL. Iprogrammed new beats using his drum sounds. I went for that huge'80s gated reverb sound — I basically wanted the drumsto sound like Scritti Politti on that song. I had a lot of help onthe album, too. John Smeltz, who does engineering for the Roots andCommon, and Phil "The Butcher" Niccolo, the originalhip-hop drum guy, helped a lot with the drum sounds. Before thedrums go to tape, we run them through a Neve console with abeautiful sound. John also uses the new Euphonix board.
Take me through your production and writingprocess.
I start by getting together the drum sounds I want to use, andI'll program a nice groove on the MPC-2000 XL — usually atwo-bar, sometimes a four-bar figure. Then I'll pull out somekeyboard sounds. I have a Mini Moog, Memory Moog, Roland MKS-50,and all the controllers, like the Roland PG-300 programmer. Forthis album, I really wanted '80s sounds, and of course a lotof those synthesizers are from the '80s. I would just tweaksome of the presets I normally never use, but the sounds were sotrue to the era.
With the keyboards I come up with the chord progression to goover the drums — maybe a four-bar loop for the verses. WhenI'm putting this stuff down I'm hearing the vocals in my head. Iactually imagine Björk or Chaka Khan singing melodies. ThenI'll do the bass lines. I grew up with that Stevie Wonder basssound in my household, so my songs have got to have funky basslines. Then I decide what the hook is going to be, and I'll copyover the drum part to a chorus section and change the chordsunderneath. If I want to write a bridge, I'll program one moresequence, but there are usually only two or three sequences persong based around drum patterns.
I use e Yamaha 03D mixing desk at home, and I record all thedrums in automix. That way I don't need to do drops within asequence. I'll do it live as if I were DJing. I keep the sequencerunning, and then I automix everything. After that, I dump it allto the Roland VS-1680 with MIDI Time Code, so if I need to addsomething, I can do that on a virtual track — it's all intime. The whole song is sequenced at that point, and the drums anddrops are where I want them.
Once the song is completely written, I dump it from the 1680 totape in the studio. Then the singers come in and do their thing,and after that I'll bring in instrumentalists. For instance, on"Incident on a Couch, Part II," James Poyser came inand played acoustic piano over the whole electronic sequence. Ialso brought in a harp player, and she played harp just for thefills — that whole track is a tribute to Trevor Horn and Artof Noise. After we do vocals and instruments, I go back and doanother automated mix using the SSL, with an ear to the vocaltracks. I might want to drop some drums here or there or make somefinal tweaks. Then we throw it to tape, and that's it.
I did a lot of writing with two of my good friends. Tim Motzeris a fantastic guitar player, and he and I wrote "ForLove" together. Philip Charles — that's my boy. He's asound designer and one of the best bass players in Philly. We wrote"Romeo's Fate" and "Beauty of Machines"together.
What is your basic setup?
At home, my setup is the Akai MPC-2000 XL; Roland JV-1080,JD-990, and JD-800 synths; Memory Moog; Mini Moog; Roland VS-1680digital workstation; Korg Vocoder; Korg MS-20 analog modularpatch-bay synth; and Moogerfooger pedals — the low-frequencypedal and the Ring Mod pedal; I use them as inserts on the Yamaha03D. If I need extra effects, I use the 1680, which has two effectscards. In the studio, sometimes we'll use Pro Tools tomake certain kinds of edits. I listen to everything throughMackie-powered studio monitors.
On hip-hop or house tracks I do everything at home. For houseand dance stuff I like lo-fi, but it still has to sound clean. Butfor big productions, like Sylk 130 or this young lady I'm producing— Michelle Shapiro, on Warner Bros. — I'll preproduceat home and then go into a tape studio to cut it. I'm going tostart using Logic Audio. My roommate just gotPropellerhead's Reason. When I saw it, I was going,"Oh my God! What the fuck?" All you need isReason, a laptop, digital I/O, and a MIDI keyboard. It'scrazy!
How did you create the stunning string arrangements on"Happiness" and "Rising"?
I'm a huge strings fan — both the kind of sounds thatRotary Connection used in the '60s and the sort that 4Herodoes now — so they had to be done the right way. They had tohave depth. On "Happiness" and "Rising" wewrote the string arrangements after the rest of the music andvocals were done. I worked in The Studio, owned by Larry Gold, whois a Philly legend. He used to do strings for Philly International,and he's done everything from Jennifer Lopez's "If You WantMy Love" to Brandy to R. Kelly. He also used to play cello ina band called Woody's Truckstop with Todd Rundgren in the'60s, so he goes way back. Because he's a string player, hebuilt his studio with strings in mind. It sounds great.
On those two songs, Larry did the arrangement on a Synclavier.We retweaked them a little; then he brought in the string quartet,and we doubled that. The doubling makes it sound rich, and so doesthe way we dropped it in the track. You want to go easy on thereverb — not too much, just a nice small-room sound. I'mcoming from the DJ point of view. I wanted the strings to berhythmic, so I used the Roland JV-1080 orchestra card and came upwith ideas for those stabs in the verses. I played a basic line forthe chorus on the keyboard. Gloria Schenk, who is with thePhiladelphia Orchestra, expanded on my ideas, making the chorusparts much fuller. She loves to do other projects besidesclassical. She had a string quartet in the house, and we went intothe studio and knocked it out.
A lot of DJ-oriented vocal music is really just a groovewith singing over it, whereas these are really songs — versesand choruses, great hooks, cool changes.
Well, there was no joking with the vocalists, even on the firstrecord. Everyone was professional. Take the Kathy Sledge track. Iwrote the words, everything, so I knew exactly how she should singit. Generally I'll hum or sing it to the singer, so they at leastcan get the cadences down. But that's Kathy Sledge — she'sgoing to kill it! I give them a guideline, and then they go withit. I don't even need to tell Alma [Horton] anything; she's fromthe church — I hum it once and she just brings it. For theAlison Moyet song, I sent her the instrumental tracks pretty muchdone. She wrote the words to it, so she had in her mind how she wasgoing to sing it.
You give the singers a lot of nice chord changes to singover.
Sometimes we run into problems. Kathy had a somewhat hard timewith the changes I wrote for "Rising." I grew up withJames Poyser, even bought my first keyboard from him, so I alwaysask him for advice. And I said, "How do you think thesechords sound?" He's like, "Man, for someone who nevertook lessons, these are like jazz progressions." But Ihonestly have no clue what I'm playing. I just do what feels andsounds right to the beat. I asked James if I should take lessons,and he said, "Just keep doing what you're doing."
I read your "Best of 2000" picks on your Website (www.kingbritt.net).You have very diverse tastes, don't you?
You have to, man. Every genre of music is saying something, andall music is relative — especially now, because oftechnology. You listen to country music now, and they're usinghip-hop beats. Like Shelby Lynne: that really isn't a countryrecord — it's more like '60s soul. There are noboundaries anymore, at least to my ears. Radio needs to embracethat way of thinking. In the '80s, radio was very diverse— you'd hear all kinds of music on one station. When thathappens again, the world will be a better place.
It's hard enough for James Rotondi to make a living inthe boxing world, so every now and then he's got to do somethingthat might not agree with his principles. Basically, he has toforget he's got any.

Climate change is the central focus of the European Union's continuing relationship with the Pacific, says the international cooperation chief. Stefano Manservisi, Director-General of International Cooperation and Development of the European Commission (DEVCOM), says his organisation is fully behind the Pacific on raising awareness of climate change. European Union's Stefano Manservisi … "100 percent backing" for the Pacific. Image: Unimedia "Having consulted already with national level authorities on how we can step-up support, notably on climate change, we are 100 percent backing determination to do more," he told Asia Pacific Report.
PACIFIC regionalism plays an important role in effectively addressing the challenges and threats faced in the Pacific Region. This was one of the issues that were highlighted at the European Union Regional Pacific Seminar held in Suva on Saturday. Pacific Islands Forum Secretariat secretary general, Dame Meg Taylor said the Framework for Pacific Regionalism, endorsed by forum leaders in 2014, represented forum leaders' renewed emphasis on regionalism, as a means to achieve regions development goals and aspirations. "We face common threats arising from climate change, ever encroaching sea levels, and more frequent and more intense disasters from natural and man-made hazard risks," she said.
Climate change remains a major collective concern for African, Caribbean and Pacific countries, which are particularly vulnerable to its negative effects. A special meeting organised by the ACP Sub-Committee for Sustainable Development laid the groundwork for an enhanced ACP role at the COP23 global climate talks in Bonn, Germany this November.
Between 26 March and 11 April 2017, UNESCO's Assistant Director-General for Natural Sciences, Flavia Schlegel, is visiting Samoa, the Cook Islands, New Zealand and Fiji. High on her agenda will be a ministerial meeting on 29 and 30 March in Apia, Samoa, with representatives of 13 developing Pacific island nations
Efforts are underway in Fiji to revive the country's cocoa industry, one year on from Tropical Cyclone Winston.A European Union-funded project, in partnership with the Secretariat of the Pacific Community, has set up three new cocoa processing units, each of which includes a fermenter and cocoa dryer. The co-founder of a Fiji-based chocolate company, Tomohito Zukoshi, built the units and says they will provide a consistent A-grade quality cocoa for export. Mr Zukoshi said Cyclone Winston devastated Fiji's cocoa sector and it is still recovering. "We had invested so much of our manpower to do the pruning, and clearing, before the cyclone and then the cyclone hit and it just became worse - we lost the entire 2016's crops."
Fiji's preparation to host the next global conference on climate change has received a major boost. This comes after the European Union exclusively told FBC News that it will offer more technical assistance to the Fijian government to host this meeting. EU Ambassador to the Pacific Andrew Jacobs says negotiations are currently underway between the European Union and the Fijian government on what type of assistance Fiji will need towards hosting the COP 23 meeting.
East African states have been asked to invest more resources in the development of renewable power projects like solar energy where the region has a better comparative advantage as compared to Hydropower which is more expensive to finance. Development partners say the climate conditions in some countries within the community such as Uganda supports the development of solar power but the country has not yet exploited such opportunities which have kept Uganda depending too much on Hydropower and biomass as sources of Energy. Speaking during the commissioning of the US$ 19 million solar photovoltaic project in Soroti, Eastern Uganda, the Head of European Union delegation in Uganda Ambassador Kristain Schmidt said Uganda is conducive for solar power development because of the climatic conditions and the regulatory framework.
The projects of the African Portuguese Speaking Countries and Timor-Leste (PALOP-TL) financed by the European Union were finalised on Thursday and Friday during technical meetings held in Praia, the capital of Cabo Verde (Cape Verde). The ministerial meeting on Friday, assessed the projects to be financed by the 11th European Development Fund, with the participation of the Director General for International Cooperation and Development of the European Commission, Stefano Manservisi.
Rising temperatures will have severe implications for crops, water and livestock in African small states if urgent measures aren't taken, a new report has found. The Commonwealth Secretariat's Small States: Economic Review and Basic Statics, Volume 19 warns of the intensifying impact of climate change on the agriculture sectors in Botswana, Namibia, Lesotho and Swaziland. It also identifies strategies that could help countries address the challenge. "What the Commonwealth report shows is that there is need for urgent action. For Africa, we need to start with better co-operation and co-ordination between those working in climate change and agriculture," said Dr Reginald Darius, head of economic development at the Commonwealth Secretariat.
Development agencies must use the momentum from COP22 to prioritise water infrastructure projects and help mitigate the effects of climate change and extreme weather events in Africa, write Elke Herrfahrdt-Pähle and Waltina Scheumann. Elke Herrfahrdt-Pähle is an economist and Waltina Scheumann is a political scientist. This editorial was first published by the German Development Institute (DIE). Last Friday (18 November) marked the end of COP22 in Marrakesh, which addressed the implementation of the climate agreement signed in Paris one year ago. The accord at long last recognised that climate change adaptation is equally as important as greenhouse gas emissions reduction.

…to keep the economy in the crapper for as long as possible. More great economic news from the Congressional Budget Office (via The Hill):
The Congressional Budget Office on Tuesday predicted the deficit will rise to $1.08 trillion in 2012. The office also projected the jobless rate would rise to 8.9 percent by the end of 2012, and to 9.2 percent in 2013. These are much dimmer forecasts than in CBO's last report in August, when the office projected a $973 billion deficit. The report reflects weaker corporate tax revenue and the extension for two months of the payroll tax holiday.
A rising deficit and unemployment rate would hamper President Obama's reelection effort, which in recent weeks has seemed to be on stronger footing. If the CBO estimate is correct, it would mean that the United States recorded a deficit of more than $1 trillion for every year of Obama's first term.
CBO Director Doug Elmendorf told reporters that Congress will have to make important choices this year regarding the supercommittee trigger and tax policy that will have huge effects on the deficit. While unable to recommend choices, Elmendorf said that addressing the deficit sooner rather than later is easier.
The deficit was $1.4 trillion in 2009, $1.3 trillion in 2010 and $1.3 trillion in 2011. The largest deficit recorded before that was $458 billion in 2008. CBO had forecast an 8.5 percent unemployment rate for the end of 2012 in its August report. It now expects the jobless rate to be higher and to still be at 7 percent in 2015.
January 2013 can't come fast enough.
I don't care that much for NBA basketball, because it's only about the money anymore. It's hard, though, not to appreciate the fantastic athleticism possessed by some of the players. Case in point: Blake Griffin. Watch it.
Snoop Dog endorses Ron Paul on his Facebook page. I guess it's an endorsement, but I think it mainly has to do with Paul's stance on legalizing all drugs – including weed.
Various race-baiting demagoguers have stated it's raaaaacist to call Barry the Petulant Boy-King Obama the "food stamp president," as Newt Gingrich did in a couple of the Republican debates. If he's not the food stamp president, then what of this story from Big Government?
Over the last three years, the number of Americans on food stamps has skyrocketed by two-thirds and stands at a record-high 46 million citizens, or one out of every seven people in the United States. Despite the historic rise in food stamp use, however, the Obama Administration believes not enough people are receiving food stamps who should be and is offering $75,000 grants to groups who devise "effective strategies" to "increase program participation" among those who have yet to sign up.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's website singles out Hispanics and elderly Americans as groups who often fail to enroll in the food stamp program (officially known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP) and says that one of the contributing factors that must be overcome to get more people to sign up for SNAP benefits is individual "pride":
There are many reasons why eligible people, including seniors and Hispanics, do not participate in the SNAP. These include unawareness of eligibility, confusion about program rules and requirements, a complex application process, and a lack of transportation and pride.
To reduce these "barriers" to food stamp enrollment, the Department of Agriculture offers non-profit groups the chance to receive $75,000 grants for projects designed to boost food stamp participation among those who are eligible but have yet to sign up. The Department of Agriculture believes that the SNAP program is "severely underutilized" and says that 33 percent more Americans who are eligible to receive food stamps have yet to apply, thus the need to offer federal grants to sign more citizens up.
If you read on in the article, you'll see that various idiot liberals think handing out food stamps is "economic stimulation." Sigh.

I enjoyed living at Hudson Miramont very much. It's a wonderful community with such nice neighbors, and a wonderful area--surrounded by nature, but close to town. I happily recommend Hudson Miramont!
Being a young professional moving from across the country I was looking for an apartment complex that was safe, comfortable, affordable, and convient to downtown. I found that and more at Hudson Miramont. The apartment itself is very clean with an open floor plan and hill country views. The maintenance team is always there to help when needed. The complex has great amenities including entry gates, a dog park, a gorgeous gym, computer lounge, laundry building, and a DVD library. The resort style pool is my favorite because it is relaxing and never to over crowded. I also like living at Hudson Miramont because of the sense of community here. All residents are super friendly and respectful of the apartment complex and one another, which makes living here that much better. After living here for only a few months Hudson Miramont is a big reason as to why Austin is starting to feel like home.
We have lived here at Hudson Miramont for a year now. It is a fabulous place to live. Close enough to downtown,but far enough out for some peace and quiet. Stacey Kelly and her staff are just awesome. They are here if you need anything. The pool is beautiful, not to mention the awesome gym and computer areas. We would highly recommend Hudson Marimont to anyone! !

I burst out laughing when i saw this image.
On one hand, we are talking about German Precision, on the other hand, its stuck up on a Edgware Road Tube Station Wall. The frame is wonky and manky, paint is peeling, the surrounding brickwork is tattered, repaired unevenly and looking more like a ruin. The highlighter lamp at the bottom has fallen on its side so lord only knows how the lighting will happen. The wiring is exposed in front of the poster. German Precision meets decrepit British Infrastructure. Ironic..

Well, I feel just terrible.
When I posted the Lime Chicken Lettuce Boats with Avocado Salad and Chimichurri recipe, I made you all a promise – I promised you the recipes for the accompanying Argentina-inspired dessert. That was eleven days ago.
It just breaks my heart to think of you waiting a week and a half for these recipes. I imagine you must've leapt from your bed each morning, an hour before your alarm clock rang, tripping over the cat as you lunged for the computer, praying for a fast internet connection, and a creamy, crispy, caramel and cinnamon dessert.
From the moment you first read about this dessert, you must've been haunted by dreams of flaky, tender puff pastry sticks with a crunchy candy coating, and cold, velvety cinnamon ice cream slathered in homemade dulce de leche.
As the days crawled by at an excruciating pace, your thoughts became darker. Why hasn't Bake Up, Little Suzy shared the dessert recipe she promised me? Is she keeping it from me?
Friends, I have no excuse. I've just been really busy and had no time or energy for writing.
I'm pretty sure you'll forget all about this unpleasantness just as soon as the aroma of homemade dulce de leche begins to fill your kitchen. It smells like, what's the word…? Comfort. Security. What does your 401k smell like? I'll tell you: it smells like milk simmered with sugar.
And once the candy-coated puff pastry strips begin turning golden brown in the oven, this whole misunderstanding will be a distant memory.
Continue reading for the Baked Churros, Cinnamon Ice Cream, and Dulce de Leche recipes.
|Baked Churros with Cinnamon Ice Cream and Dulce de Leche
- Baked Churros
- 1 sheet puff pastry dough, thawed
- 3 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- Cinnamon Ice Cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- A pinch of salt
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 4 large egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Dulce de Leche
- 4 cups whole milk
- 3/4 cup granulated white sugar
- 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Preheat oven to 400.
- Mix the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
- Unfold the pastry dough on a lightly floured surface, brush the top with melted butter, and sprinkle on cinnamon sugar.
- Flip the pastry over and repeat butter and cinnamon sugar process.
- Cut pastry into 8 thin strips about 1 inch wide.
- Place the strips on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bake about 15 minutes, until golden brown.
- Heat the milk, salt, cinnamon stick, ground cinnamon, and sugar in a saucepan over medium-low until it just comes to a boil.
- Set up an ice bath by placing a 2-quart bowl in a larger bowl partially filled with ice and water. Set a strainer over the top of the smaller bowl and pour in the cream.
- In yet another bowl, stir together the egg yolks. Gradually pour some of the warm milk mixture into the yolks, whisking constantly as you pour. Scrape the warmed yolks and milk back into the saucepan.
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly and scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, until the custard is thick enough to coat the back of the spoon.
- Strain the custard into the heavy cream. Stir over the ice until cool, add the vanilla extract, then refrigerate to chill thoroughly.
- Freeze the custard in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Heat the milk, sugar, corn syrup, baking soda and salt in a Dutch oven over medium to medium-high heat and bring just to a boil. Watch carefully, and as soon as the milk begins to foam up, stir with a wooden spoon, and reduce heat until the milk is just at a low rolling boil. (If the milk foams up too much, remove the saucepan from the heat until the foam starts to subside. Then return to heat.)
- Continue to cook the milk, stirring the bottom and sides of the saucepan frequently, until the mixture becomes very thick and sticky and caramel colored (this will take about 60 to 90 minutes). It is important to frequently stir the milk so it does not burn. Adjust the heat as necessary; you want to keep the milk at a low rolling boil.
- Note: There are several stages the milk goes through during the cooking process. When the milk first comes to a boil there is a lot of foam. Eventually the foam subsides and after about 15 minutes, you will notice that the milk turns a light beige color. As it continues to cook, the milk thickens and gets darker and darker in color. The more you cook the Dulce de Leche, the thicker and more caramel colored it will become. Once the Dulce de Leche has been reduced to about 1 1/4 cups (300 ml) it is ready.
- Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Strain and let cool before covering and storing. The Dulce de Leche can be stored in the refrigerator for at least a month.

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in developed countries. The cause of these diseases is an accelerated progression of atherosclerosis (cholesterol accumulation in the vessel wall, and consequently, the formation of deposits which can lead to clogging of the arteries), which is caused by unhealthy lifestyle: increased body weight or obesity, unhealthy diet, lack of exercise and exposure to stress. As a consequence, hypertension, lipid metabolism disorder, or diabetes emerge ... Family medical history plays a very important role in that. Increased body weight and obesity with excessive accumulation of fat around the waist present a risk as well.
Timely identification of persons with an increased risk for developing a cardiovascular disease, healthy lifestyle counselling and medication can effectively reduce the risk. Within the context of cardiological activity at DC Bled, there is a clinic for an ultrasound examination of carotid arteries and exercise stress test on a treadmill. These non-invasive exams uncover those individuals who are at high risk for prematurely developing cardiovascular disease. We are dedicated to both prevention as well as treatment of these diseases. Regular checkups enable us to examine the situation and recommend further steps. At DC Bled one can undergo a cardiological checkup. Maybe your referring doctor will direct you to a more targeted examination, such as heart ultrasound, ultrasound of carotid arteries, or exercise stress testing.
The Diagnostic Centre Bled Group also includes the Medi Cons cardiology clinic in Novo mesto. The clinic's services are available both by referral and on a self-pay basis. You can find out more about the clinic here.

Rest and relaxation are essential for health, well-being and weight loss.
Whether you are just starting your journey with phentermine, about to finish or trying to maintain your weight after phentermine stopped working or treatment ended, it is crucial to get plenty of sleep. Adequate mental and physical recovery will help you feel your best and promote long-term weight loss success.
Weight loss relies not only on effective stress management during the day, but also quality sleep and recovery overnight.
Many people skimp on sleep in-favor of other, more enticing activities during the day – or even in an attempt to make time for healthy habits like daily exercise – but a lack of sleep can wreak havoc not only on weight loss, but also overall health.
Sleep and weight loss are inextricably linked because getting enough sleep:
Sleep deprivation dulls activity in the brain's frontal lobe – the area responsible for logic, decision-making and impulse control – while increasing responsivity in the amygdala, the area that processes reward and emotion [3]. The combination of decreased impulse control and increased reward makes harder to resist temptation, even if you know that the choice is not healthy.
Skimping on sleep increases feelings of hunger and cravings for high-calorie foods. Research shows that sleep-deprived subjects report 24% more hunger and 45% more cravings for high-carbohydrate, salty "junk" foods [2]. When left to eat what they want, participants consume an average of 600 extra calories while short on sleep [3].
Sleep deprivation also affects hormone levels. First, it increases ghrelin production and decreases circulation of leptin. These changes strengthen hunger cues and decrease feelings of satiety, respectively, making you more likely to overeat.
Lack of sleep also increases the stress hormone, cortisol. The body perceives extended waking hours as form of stress, so cortisol production goes into overdrive to provide extra energy.
One of the ways cortisol provides additional energy is through promoting lean muscle breakdown and increasing visceral (abdominal) fat storage. In fact, a study from the University of Chicago found that dieters sleeping an average of 5.5 hours/night lost significantly more lean muscle mass than their counterparts who slept an average of 8.5 hours/night. This is problematic because losing lean muscle mass slows metabolism and makes it harder to lose or maintain weight, even with strict dieting [4].
Sufficient sleep also promotes weight loss by supporting a healthy metabolism. Not only does nighttime rest supply much-needed energy to take on the day and exercise, it also prepares the body to burn more calories at rest.
It is not only chronic sleep deprivation that proves harmful, however. Studies have shown that after just four days of insufficient sleep (4.5 hours/night), subjects' insulin sensitivity drops by 16% and fat cells' specific sensitivity to insulin drops by almost a third [5].
When your body fails to respond properly utilize glucose in your bloodstream it ends up storing the extra energy as fat. As a result, a lack of sleep contributes to unwanted fat storage, hinders weight loss efforts and may even promote weight ga
Yes: sleeping more helps you lose weight, but there is a limit. Sleeping too much or too little is detrimental to both health and weight loss.
To help fend off weight gain and an increased risk of obesity, heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and psychological distress, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends that adults ages 18-60 aim for 7-9 hours of sleep per night [1]. This amount of rest allows. the brain and body sufficient time to rest, recover and prepare for the following day [6].
There is an upper limit for recommended hours of sleep per night, however, becuase sleeping too much causes many of the same negative health consequences as sleeping too little. Sleeping 10 or more hours a night can actually make you feel more sluggish and irritable than sleeping the recommended 7-9 hours [7].
So, for both health and weight loss, try to get about 8 hours of sleep most nights.
