Is This Toxic Ingredient Hiding in Your Fridge?
When cooks want to make their recipes healthier, they often use vegetable oils or margarine in place of saturated fats, like butter. But instead of making foods healthier, polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs) found in products like canola or safflower oil are actually quite toxic.
The low-fat diet craze that began several decades ago ushered in an epidemic of metabolic disorders and disease.
Consumers traded in butter and other animal cooking fats for vegetable oils. As a result, health problems increased along with food manufacturers' profits (not to mention Big Pharma's):
"In accord with dietary recommendations, Americans have cut back on the amount of animal fat we consume (saturated fat). We have increased the amount of poly-unsaturated fats (PUFAs), however. Most of the PUFAs are oils from plant seeds. Food processors seem to use oils from different plants more-or-less interchangeably, judging from the ingredient lists on a variety of products. They all have fairly similar profiles, however, being relatively rich in ω-6 fatty acids, and relatively poor in ω-3 fatty acids. These graphs would seem to absolve animal fat of blame for the obesity epidemic. Do they implicate plant oils?" -Indiana University Office of Science Research
It's Perfectly Natural
Repeat a Falsehood Often Enough and It Becomes a Fact
"A lie told often enough becomes truth." -Vladimir Lenin, Goebbels, or some other evil historical figure
Even though saturated fats have never been proven to cause weight gain or disease, the demonization of natural animal fats has pervaded the American mindset--so much so that most people can't understand how the fats found in nature can be healthier than man-made, chemically-processed oils squeezed from seeds.
This isn't because people are stupid. It's because you hear messages over and over and over, and soon misinformation becomes truth. It doesn't matter if it's founded in science or simply just made-up jibberish.
Why Vegetable Oils?
"It is estimated that for every two percent increase in consumption of trans fat (still found in many processed and fast foods) the risk of heart disease increases by 23 percent. As surprising as it might be to hear, the fact that animal fats pose this same risk is not supported by science." (emphasis mine)-Drew Ramsey, MD and Tyler Graham, authors of The Happiness Diet
The vegetable oil industry had to come up with a way to make money as a growing number of people began switching to electricity. Vegetable oils were once used to make candles, which was a profitable industry before the days of flipping a switch. In the early 20th century it became clear that candles were becoming all but obsolete
Vegetable oil manufacturers, like Crisco, had to come up with a plan to keep their businesses afloat. They pushed the idea that lard was unhealthy and their hydrogenated cottonseed oil (why did we ever think that eating cotton was a good thing?) was the healthy choice of the future.
They came out with recipes in books and advertisements that demonstrated how this amazing product could create flaky pie crusts and tender pastries. People loved it, tossed their lard, and bought shortening in droves.
Cheap Candle Making
Dr. Mary Enig
Mary Enig: PUFA Whistleblower
Since the late 1970s, the US government has recommended that American consumers replace saturated fats with polyunsaturated fats.
Dr. Mary Enig, graduate student of biochemistry at the University of Maryland, knew the dangers of this drastic dietary advice and spoke out against the promotion of vegetable fats.
Since the dangers of trans fats weren't widely recognized until the 1990s, it's obvious that her warnings to government and health authorities fell on deaf ears.
Look at the Numbers
It's no coincidence that a short time later heart disease rates increased dramatically. In 1920, 70 percent of America used lard as a cooking fat of choice. Today, 70 percent use polyunsaturated oils.
Rates of obesity, heart disease, and cancer rose, and continue to rise steadily with the consumption of polyunsaturated fats and sugar. Yet health authorities continue to tell people to keep doing what they're doing and expect good results.
Wouldn't it make more sense to go back to what we were doing before metabolic syndrome and cancer became serious crises?
Vegetable Oils Contain Trans Fat
"Canola oil degrades so rapidly that a testing company, needing to find the purest canola oil to use as a standard against which other oils could be compared, couldn't locate any canola oil even from pharmaceutical-grade manufacturers with a trans fat content lower than 1.2 percent" -Dr. Cate Shanahan, author of Deep Nutrition: Why Your Genes Need Traditional Food
The dangers of trans fats in hydrogenated oils are now well known. What most people don't know is that all vegetable oils contain trans fat, whether it's indicated on the label or not. These trans fats are toxic and fry your arteries like crispy onion rings.
When vegetable oils are heated--first during processing and then during cooking--their molecular structure becomes mutated. These mutated molecules are incredibly damaging and wreak havoc when they're ingested.
High Heat Makes Safe PUFAs Toxic
Seeds are pressed and heated to high temperatures to manufacture vegetable oils. All seeds contain polyunsaturated fats, which are nature's way of protecting the seed during the cold weather months. But these fats are delicate and easily oxidized: oxygen squirms its way into the molecules, causing damage that is super destructive.
Oxidized fats are a bad, bad thing. Remember the mutated molecules we were just talking about? They create a free-radical cascade that damages healthy cells throughout your body, leading to inflammation and disease.
On the other hand, saturated fats resist oxidation. There's no room for oxygen to squeeze its way through to damage the fat molecule. In fact, fat-soluble vitamin E, which is abundant in grass-fed beef, helps preserve the fat and protect it from oxidation.
On Eating Real Food
EFA Balance is Key
"Anthropological and epidemiological studies and studies at the molecular level indicate that human beings evolved on a diet with a ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 essential fatty acids (EFA) of ~1 whereas in Western diets the ratio is 15/1 to 16.7/1." -Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy
Research shows that a diet that isn't balanced in omega-6 and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids can be dangerous to your health.
Human beings have always eaten a diet that is balanced in omega-6 and omega-3 EFAs. That is, until recently: today, the average American consumes 15 to 20 times more omega-6 than omega-3.
Vegetable oils are unnaturally high in inflammatory omega-6. Virtually all processed foods contain these toxic oils, pushing your EFA intake out of balance. When you eat these foods, they cause inflammation throughout your body. This inflammation can increase risks of heart disease and metabolic syndrome.
Omega-6 and omega-3 compete for the same enzyme in order to be metabolized. If your diet is high in omega-6, omega-3 will always be the loser, creating an even greater imbalance.
Switching to a diet with a low ratio of omega-6 and omega-3 has been shown to slow the growth of cancer cells, reduce inflammation in arthritis sufferers, and decrease mortality by 70 percent in those who have cardiovascular disease.
Of course, omega-6s are essential fatty acids. You need to get them from your food. The problem begins when you eat a diet heavy in these polyunsaturated fats, and mostly from unnatural sources.
Food Manufacturers Love Vegetable Oils
Even if you don't cook with them, almost all processed foods contain vegetable oils. Added to everything from dehydrated fruits and roasted nuts to breads, snack foods, and frozen dinners . . . it doesn't matter if you're a staunch vegan or fast food junkie. These cheap fats are easy to use in the manufacturing of food products.
So how do you avoid a diet high in omega-6? Stick with real food. Real food is anything that has been used traditionally. In other words, did your great-great-great grandmother eat it? You can't say that she ate that loaf of bread found in today's supermarket because those 20-letter-word ingredients weren't even used in her day (and the wheat used today is drastically different from the strains used a century ago).
Coconut oil is an excellent substitute for vegetable oil in any recipe. You can cook or bake with it. Coconut oil is high in saturated fat and can be used in a frying pan without becoming oxidized. It has amazing health properties, and has even shown that it may have the power to reverse Alzheimer's disease.
He Said She Said: Who's Right?
Conflicting messages that tell you what is healthy and what isn't will continue as long as lying is profitable. The cheap fats known as vegetable oils are a prime example. When faced with health issues about what is good and what is bad, always side with nature. She won't steer you wrong.

Have you made the switch to a real food diet?
Wow, it is amazing. With so many conflicting opinions coming from all over it's no wonder people don't know what to believe about what to eat.
Well done... I had no idea vegetable oils were that bad. More people need to realize that this fear of animal fats is exactly what has caused all the problems with diabetes, heart disease, and obesity. In fact I was watching a great science documentary last week on human evolution, and it explained how it was our species eating animal fat and marrow that caused a major leap in evolution for us. This is great info.
Liz, you speak the truth, and you write extremely well. Great information here; some of it I knew, but most was news to me. Great job, girl with no name, and have a great weekend. :)

COLUMBIA, S.C. - Although he warmed up, Georgia middle linebacker Derrick White's sprained left ankle was bad enough to keep him on the sideline for Saturday's 20-16 win against South Carolina.

He was replaced by sophomore Jarvis Jackson, who started at weakside linebacker last week against Georgia Southern.
With Jackson in the middle, sophomore Danny Verdun Wheeler made his second straight start opposite Arnold Harrison at the strongside position.
"This was a big day for all of us, myself included," Jackson said. "I was kind of nervous, but I had some veteran guys around me and we did what we had to do."
Jackson didn't do bad himself.
The sophomore finished third on the team with a career-high eight tackles, including two for minus-4 yards.
Ware injury dampers win
One week after rushing for 135 yards in Georgia Southern, Danny Ware managed just 41 against South Carolina before coming out of the game in the second quarter with a chest contusion.
He did not return.
The Bulldogs were already minus freshman Thomas Brown, who did not suit up after suffering a hamstring injury Thursday.
Fortunately for Georgia, coach Mark Richt said it appears Ware will be all right and able to play Saturday against Marshall.
"I think he'll be fine," Richt said. "He coughed up some blood. We took an X-ray and it showed he had a bruise on his lung, but we think he's going to be OK."
Tyson Browning and fourth-string running back Michael Cooper were able to pick up the slack.
Cooper rushed for a team-high 61 yards on 13 attempts, followed by Browning with 54.
"Both those guys did a great job," Richt said. "They stepped up and did what they needed to do."
Ghosts of Williams-Brice don't haunt Browning
Browning felt a lot better about this trip to Williams-Brice Stadium than he did as a freshman in 2002.
In that game, Browning fumbled on the first carry he saw against the Gamecocks and in Saturday's contest, fumbled South Carolina's first punt of the afternoon.
Luckily for the Bulldogs, Browning made up for his mistake by accounting for 119 total yards, including a 12-yard touchdown catch in the third quarter from David Greene to draw Georgia within 16-13.
"I didn't worry about it (the fumble)," Browning said. "I knew I had to still try to go out and make plays. Fortunately, I was able to do that."
Ely-Kelso enjoys record day
One week after serving a suspension for violating team rules, Bulldog punter Gordon Ely-Kelso returned to action against the Gamecocks and enjoyed a record day.
Ely-Kelso had five punts for a 45.2-yard average, including a personal-best of 61 yards.
"I've got to give a lot of credit to my gunners," Ely-Kelso said. "A couple of my punts hit around the 40 and rolled an extra 10 yards. But it was good to be back out there. I thought I hit the ball pretty well."
Greene king of comebacks
Greene (19-for-38, 219 yards, two touchdowns) now has six career fourth-quarter comebacks.
Saturday's effort was his first since leading the Bulldogs to the 2002 Eastern Division title with a 24-21 comeback at Auburn after Georgia trailed by 11 points.
Greene is now 34-8 as the Bulldogs' starter.
Injury update
Aside from Ware's chest contusion, the Bulldogs escaped Saturday's game relatively unscathed.
South Carolina wasn't as fortunate.
Starting running back Demetris Summers suffered a sprained ankle on the Gamecocks' first offensive play, and only returned briefly before in the third quarter before re-injuring the same ankle.
Also, cornerback Jonathan Joseph suffered a broken right foot in the first quarter, while right tackle Na'shan Goddard suffered a hyperextended knee in the second quarter, but returned in the second half. Cornerback Tremaine Tyler suffered a shoulder stinger in the third quarter.
This and that
An estimated 10,000 fans attended the ESPN GameDay show at the South Carolina State Fairgrounds. ... The safety South Carolina scored against Georgia in the first quarter was the first allowed by the Bulldogs since the 2003 SEC Championship game against LSU.

Zynga (Symbol ZNGA) was a once beloved company with no end in sight, until suddenly it wasn't. Once home to the top gaming development talent, hit games, and a high school size pile of money, Zynga had world conquer within its grasp.
Then the unthinkable happened. Zynga couldn't continue to quickly produce massive hits quarter after quarter, and since they couldn't do it themselves, they did what any rich American company would do. Buy the people who might be able to do it for you. Zynga began buying up a bunch of companies and tried to capitalize on their talent and ideas. A quick Google search and you can find all the various studio purchases ($180,000,000 for OMGPOP as a note-able purchase).
But yet, Zynga continues to fail to find enough break out games. In fact the last 4 quarters have been negative earnings, and that high school size pile of money is now a high school size pile of money without a gym.
I purpose a solution to Zynga's problem. Farming.
It's time that Zynga abandons its crazy policy of buying up studios trying to hit the next big thing and begins to buy into a market sure to "grow"… farming. It's time … for real life FarmVille.
The average cost of a farm acre is roughly $2100 an acre. Meaning that if Zynga took 60% of its short-term cash equivalents it could purchase about 378,000 acres of farm land. That's almost seven Iowas in land mass.
Now I know how much you make per acre varies a lot, but I have to believe after a quick Google search you could net $300 per acre per year. Maybe more if you have a two season farm. That's 378,000 x $300 = $113.4 Million a year. To add contrast, in Zynga's only positive year it roughly had a gain of $127.06 million before tax. Last year it lost $404 Million.
I think you can make a pretty solid argument that it is in the best interest of the shareholders that Zynga considers this business model.
You can't control if that FarmVille player clicks on that add for Laser Hair removal, but you sure can control the corn put into his or her hot pocket. They need that to "live" irl.


text: Drilling a vent often fails to give relief from occlusionFulton, Bernadette; Martin, LoisThe Hearing Journal: July 2006 - Volume 59 - Issue 7 - p 40,42,44–45 doi: 10.1097/01.HJ.0000287161.06059.19 Article Author Information Article Outline Bernadette Fulton, BA, Dip. Aud., is a Research and Clinical Audiologist at Dynamic Hearing. Lois Martin, PhD, is the Principal Audiologist at Dynamic Hearing. They may be contacted at Dynamic Hearing, 2 Chapel Street, Richmond, Victoria 3121, Australia, or at email@example.com. BACKGROUND SUBJECTS PROCEDURE RESULTS CONCLUSION Acknowledgment REFERENCES In a column last year, Robert L. Martin described open hearing aid fittings as "the new hot topic."1 Interest in open-fitting hearing aids has highlighted the negative effects caused by occlusion in people with hearing levels better than 40 dB HL for low frequencies.2 In the clinic, fitting these people successfully has always included striking the right balance between the amount of feedback and the amount of occlusion.3 Whenever possible, clinicians will choose to vent and then, if necessary, enlarge the vent. Often they will be satisfied with achieving a 2-mm vent as a good compromise between occlusion and feedback. But how can clinicians be confident that the vent will have the intended impact and why do occlusion problems frequently persist even after a vent is drilled? Back to Top | Article Outline BACKGROUND Techniques for measuring the occlusion effect in the clinic have generally involved using the patient's own voice as the stimulus.4 While the sound pressure level in the ear canal is being measured, patients are asked to produce a sustained vowel, usually /i/ or /u/. These vowels are chosen because they are intense and have low first formants, so some of their low-frequency energy is transmitted through the solid structures of the head to the ear canal.5 By using probe-microphone measurement, the clinician can calculate the increase in the intensity of the low-frequency sound pressure in the ear canal when it is occluded. A comparison of the SPL in the canal with reference to a microphone at the entrance of the external ear canal provides a rapid quantification of the amount of occlusion produced by a particular hearing aid or earmold for a single stimulus. There also are commercial devices available that allow this measurement to be performed quickly in the clinic.6,7 They may be more difficult to use, however, when a comparison among several different earmolds is required. To achieve a comparative measure the patient must be able to repeat accurately the sustained vowel stimulus for each measurement. Even when they can watch a sound level meter, some people find it very difficult to reproduce the stimulus vowel accurately.8,9 Revit has suggested an alternative technique.10 He proposed the use of an audiometric bone vibrator as an alternative stimulus in instances where the client is "unable or unwilling to sustain the required sound." Because bone conduction is the dominant auditory pathway contributing to the occlusion effect,12 Revit thought that a suitable alternative stimulus might be a low-frequency pure tone via the bone conductor. Using a 250-Hz pure tone at 45 dB HL, he found a similar magnitude of occlusion effect "as when using the subject's own voice." In the study reported here, we found that the benefit of using the audiometric bone conductor was the accurate repetition of the stimulus, which reduces the variability of the measurement and increases the likelihood of achieving a useful comparison of different earmold conditions. The technique described in this article may be useful in the clinic. It has been found to be a practical way to demonstrate the effectiveness of different earmold options for resolving or reducing occlusion. The findings emphasize the benefit of open fitting. Back to Top | Article Outline SUBJECTS We tested 29 ears from 18 participants, 9 male and 9 female. All participants had hearing thresholds better than 40 dB HL at 250 and 500 Hz. Six participants had normal hearing and the remaining twelve had sensorineural hearing loss. The three-frequency average hearing loss for all participants was 33.5 dB HL (range 25 to 50 dB HL). The average low-frequency hearing loss at 250 and 500 Hz was 20.5 dB HL (range 2 to 32 dB). One participant was known to have been dissatisfied with his hearing aid fitting because of unresolved occlusion. Back to Top | Article Outline PROCEDURE We placed a probe microphone in the ear canal of each participant. The tube curser was set to ensure that the tip of the probe tube would sit approximately 4 mm beyond the earmold canal stalk of the carved shell mold. The probe tube was connected to an Audioscan Verifit hearing aid analyzer, which was set to Speechmap for real-ear measure (REM). The Verifit stimulus was selected as speech-live and the real-ear-to-coupler difference (RECD) entered as 0 dB. Participants wore a bone conductor on the mastoid ipsilateral to the measurement ear. We placed the bone conductor carefully so it was not in contact with the pinna, spectacles, or hearing aid case. Using a Madsen Midimate 622 audiometer, we presented a 500-Hz pure tone continuously at 60 dB HL. We selected the 500-Hz tone because it was possible to achieve an intensity similar to a subject's own-voice stimulus. The alternative stimulus, 250 Hz, available from the audiometric bone vibrator, had a less intense maximum of 45 dB HL. Evidence from research by Stenfelt et al. suggests either frequency would produce a useful result.12 Using a similar, bone-conduction technique on a normal ear canal, they found the difference in ear canal sound pressure level for occluded and open-ear canals to be similar at 250 Hz and 500 Hz and to diminish at 1000 Hz. Maximum occlusion is likely to occur in the range of 200 to 1000 Hz,7 so whether the 250-Hz or 500-Hz frequency is selected as the stimulus, it will not coincide with the point of maximum occlusion for everyone.6 We used the Verifit's freeze curve button to capture each measurement. We measured the SPL in the ear canal for three earmolds: an open earmold, with the subject wearing an Oticon comfort tip; a vented earmold, with the subject wearing a hard acrylic carved shell earmold with a 2-mm vent; and an occluded earmold, with the 2-mm vent of the carved shell blocked with a putty plug. For all measurements, the bone conductor remained in the same position. For the vented and occluded condition, only the putty was added, so the position of the probe tube was identical for the two measurements and care was taken to ensure that its position did not change for the open earmold condition. We blocked the earmold tubing by attaching a BTE hearing aid that was switched off. The 12 participants with hearing impairment were asked to rate the perceived hollowness of their own voice for each earmold condition. Figure 1 is an example of the resulting pattern of measurement. The change in SPL for the various earmold conditions can be easily seen. Using the graph/table button on the Verifit permits an accurate SPL to be read off the table. Using the measurements produced by this technique, we can describe the occlusion effect as the difference between the SPL in the canal for the open earmold condition and the SPL for the occluded condition at 500 Hz. Figure 1 Back to Top | Article Outline RESULTS The results are summarized in Table 1. For 29 ears, the average occlusion effect (increase in the SPL in the canal at 500 Hz) was 19.5 dB (SD=4.9). The individual differences in the magnitude of the occlusion effect were large and demonstrate that some individuals have increased likelihood of finding occlusion problematic. The smallest occlusion effect measured among participants was 9 dB and the largest was 32 dB. The average reduction in SPL at 500 Hz when a 2-mm vent was added to an occluding earmold was 4.8 dB (SD=3.9; range=0 to 14 dB). Table 1 The differences among results for the vented earmold, open earmold, and occluded earmold conditions were statistically significant. A paired t test comparing the open and the occluded earmold condition gave t(28) = 20.712, p<0.001. Comparing the open earmold and vented earmold conditions gave t(28) = 14.41, p<0.001. The results of a paired t test comparing the vented earmold and occluded earmold condition gave t(28) = 6.5, p<0.001. When a 2-mm vent was added, only 7 of the 29 ears tested had a reduction in SPL of more than 5 dB and of these 4 had a reduction of more than 10 dB. For the other 22 ears, the average impact of the 2-mm vent was 2.85 dB, and in this group of participants the average occlusion effect was 18.6 dB (Table 1). For the 22 ears, 15.75 dB of occlusion remained at 500 Hz after venting. For 10 of the 22 ears the reduction in sound pressure with the 2-mm vent was 2 dB or less. For the 12 participants' rating of the hollowness of their own voice, a trend was found such that hollowness increased with occlusion (Figure 2). Figure 2 May and Dillon reported occlusion measurement results for various earmold conditions for 10 subjects using their own voice as the stimulus.13 They found that the mean decrease in ear canal sound pressure level for 2-mm vented earmolds compared with occluding molds to be between 4 and 5 dB. This result is consistent with the finding of a 4.8-dB reduction in occlusion for a 2-mm vent for all 29 ears in this study. However, for 22 ears, the majority, the reduction was only 2.8 dB and for 10 of these ears, the reduction was less than half of the average at <2 dB. One participant, who was always dissatisfied with the sound of his voice when aided, was of particular interest. He had a moderate, high-frequency sensorineural hearing loss and usually wore a 2-mm vent. His occlusion measurement indicated a 25-dB increase in SPL at 500 Hz when occluded. The reduction in occlusion when vented was measured at 3 dB. The measurement technique showed that in his case the vent reduced occlusion to 22 dB, which was still above the average of 19.5 dB for the 27 occluded ears. It is no wonder that his occlusion problem had persisted. He was not a candidate for an open earmold because of feedback and neither counseling nor acclimatization time had reduced his dissatisfaction with the sound of his voice. Back to Top | Article Outline CONCLUSION The simple technique described here for measuring the occlusion effect for different earmold configurations overcomes the problem of obtaining a repeatable stimulus. Although other techniques can identify people who have an increased potential for occlusion problems, tools that rely on the person's own voice require training time and have poorer stimulus repeatability, which both decrease ease of use in the clinic. Quantifying the comparative impact of earmold modifications is more difficult using these tools.5,6 The results reported here demonstrate the impact of an open earmold and an earmold with a 2-mm vent for resolving occlusion. The results highlight the dis- appointingly small reduction in occlusion for a 2-mm vent as compared with an open-earmold fitting. At 500 Hz, the impact of venting for some ears was minimal. A huge increase in the intensity of the bone-conduction path was recorded when the open earmold and occluded test conditions were compared. However, the measurement for the vented condition was much more similar to the occluded measurement than to the open-earmold measurement. As Dillon states: "A 2-mm vent can be regarded as a good starting point for fixing the occlusion problem, but in many cases, the vent will have to be widened to 3 mm before the patient is satisfied with the sound of his or her own voice."14 These results suggest the importance of open fittings to reduce the occlusion effect. For the subject with persistent occlusion problems described above, open fitting is the optimal solution. However, in his case, open fitting cannot be successful without excellent feedback management. The combination of feedback management with open fitting has potential to be a much more powerful tool for overcoming occlusion than drilling out a 2-mm vent in the earmold.

NOT TO BE MISSED! A REMARKABLE HOTEL IN EVERY WAY!Posted Jul 18, 2011
Where to begin? This is a jewel of a hotel, located in a spectacular mountain setting, with multiple lifts and godolas just a stroll away from the door. From the moment we drove up, we were THRILLED! The facade is magnificent, with a large terrace bedecked with flowers. Greeting at reception was personalized and friendly. Our room was one of the very recently done, and it had every possible amenity, from iPOD dock to huge closets and a fabulous shower. This hotel has so much going for it. Its private gardens are beautifully tended. There is a lovely library, with books in several languages and a computer for guest use, gratis. There is a very large indoor pool in a grotto-like setting, as well as a heated outdoor pool. There is a Finnish sauna, another sauna, and a saline-drip room, replete with birch twigs and natural saltwater drip, said to be good for bronchitis and breathing; my husband said it did wonders for him! Gastronomy is taken seriously at Saalbacher Hof, which has a more formal dining room, where half board guests are served breakfast and dinner, as well as a beautiful, traditional alpine Wirtshaus featuring regional specialties like crispy Wiener schnitzel, myriad soups and salads, and local pork, veal, and beef dishes. Dinner for half board guests is quite an affair---multiple courses, all thoughtfully and artistically prepared and served. We hated to leave this delightful and perfectly run hotel. Truly a gem!

Try to avoid in low seasonPosted Sep 27, 2009
The hotel is in the very centre of the town but that was about its only advantage. The decoration of the rooms was done a couple of decades ago. While probably quite well functioning in high season, we were reminded in every moment that our visit took place in the time of staff holiday and maintenance. The sauna works Mon-Thu only. Well, we arrived on Fri :-) The first night at 9pm we had great difficulties ordering something to eat. The best came in the end - they prepared us a full bill despite the fact that we had prepaid our stay via Expedia. Caveat emptor!

Dark Side of Sunset Pointe - A Lance Underphal Mystery by Michael Allan Scott
Dark Side of Sunset Pointe sets itself apart as a cuttingedge mystery movie in book form. Tough and gritty, it oozes suspense with a paranormal twist.
Spanning genres, this mystery doesn't fit comfortably into any one category. It's not a true hardboiled crime novel, but it's dark and riddled with crime. Not a fullfledged paranormal mysteryno vampires, werewolves, or zombiesyet it delves into the supernatural.
The fact that the protagonist is anything but exceptional makes the guy, Lance, real. He's a down and out freelance photographer haunted by his dead wife. He finds himself plagued with psychic visions, and ends up reluctantly cooperating with a local homicide detective.
Based on reallife events with an odd cast of corrupt characters. This twisted tale winds its way through the depraved lives of a real estate developer, an exotic dancer, and a bank loan officer as they play out themes of greed and power, culminating in murder.
New and different, the first book in the Lance Underphal Mystery series will keep you guessing . . .
Rrated, this murder mystery is not for everyone. Take a Look you
A Paranormal Mystery Lance Underphal was devastated by his wife's death, and now, the downandout freelance photographer can't let her go. He wakes up plagued by premonitions. The double shooting of an Arizona real estate developer and his mistress/bookkeeper immerse Underphal in a world of incomprehensible phenomena and it's anything but pleasant.
The Hardboiled Detective Frank Salmon, the homicide detective on the case, does his best to blow off Underphal's "visions." But the murders keep piling up and the visions are alltoo real.
Sex and Money /Lust and Greed The trail goes cold until a double homicide at a fast food drivethru takes a uturn back to the dead developer and a martial arts instructor's kinky wife.
Salmon reluctantly pursues Underphal's cryptic clues, leading him from a...

Good morning!! Did anyone else enjoy the long weekend? Of course I woke up with a sore throat, congestion, cough/cold on Friday before we headed for the Poconos. But I made the best of it despite being sick and had a great time with friends and learned to ski, yay! I'm exhausted today though and missing the hot tub, haha. Anyways I should've done some quick food prep yesterday but I was too tired, luckily I made these delicious treats awhile ago and stuffed them in the freezer- perfect snack! I like these pre or post workout, as an afternoon snack, or even a taste of dessert. I need to make more of these for my next trip because they travel perfectly! Plus they are allergen friendly- nut free, dairy free, gluten free, etc.
Ingredients: (Recipe can be doubled or tripled)
½ cup sunflower seeds
¼ tsp cinnamon
1 TBSP cocoa powder
¼ cup oats
3 TBSP agave
¼ cup chocolate chips
1. Combine ingredients in food processor until finely ground
2. Refrigerate ½-1 hour
3. Pull from fridge and roll into bite sized balls
4. Store in fridge
What did you do this weekend?? Have you used sunflower seeds instead of nuts in any recipes before??

I didn't get much sleep last night. And no, the little man only woke up once - it was the bigger man who snored for England. At one point, I tried to turn him onto his side and nearly propelled him off the bed, such was the force I used.
In other news, massive kudos to my mum for saying "perhaps it's not sensible to take the birthing ball"...it's now for sale for a very reasonable 99p on eBay! However, she did make my heart stop this morning. MrM had left the defunct birthing pool in the van, so I removed it as I am obsessed with maximising my miles per gallon. I left it in the front garden and my mum saw it. "Can I have...."
I was imagining her swimming in it in the back garden while she finished the sentence...."the big blue bag that it came in?"
It's a very useable blue canvas bag which I thought was covered in blood, but isn't. Mum, you are a recycling fashionista, not a hoarder. More kudos your way <3

July festivities : Dheg Dheg Plat volume V, Bandung, Indonesia 26-5-20133
Dheg Dheg Plat, gathering of vinyl lover in Bandung, Indonesia was held on the last Friday of July 2013. Check after the jump.
Dheg Dheg Plat is a vinyl lover gathering when vinyl lover could told the story of their favorite vinyl to the other while the story teller playing his/her favorite song on the turntable. This event was made by Anto Arief because of his personal favorite to vinyl and Indonesian legend musician, Koes Ploes, who one of their song titled is Dheg Dheg Plas. Dheg Dheg means the sound of heart beat while waiting something which is exciting, meanwhile Plat is the other name of vinyl.
I knew this event from facebook and I came for the first time on their second time event.
Because it's not the routine event, the schedule is not the same in every event. But this time Dheg Dheg Plat V (Five) were held on July 26th, 2013.
I came late this time and missing some story teller such as Anto who told the story when he finally met his idol, Lisa Stansfield and get Lisa's signature on his vinyl album cover. But I recorded @aceradendesenasuria 's story when he was fall in love with his highschool friend. And he play song from Rumah Sakit – Anomali.
There was also Budi Warsito who play unique song from Orkes Melayu Pengabdian. The song titled is Muhammad Ali. He just asking where the band knowing Ali because at that time (when the band release this vinyl album) there was no tv channel in Indonesia.
But the most waited story teller at that night is Ucok Homicide. He told us the chronicle story of hip hop legend Public Enemy.
We are all just amazed by Ucok stories. He is very entertaining story teller, just like his music lyric.
Suddenly one of the audience ask Ucok how does it feel when he was in one stage with his idol : Public Enemy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wima_3t96mg and he said that he almost can't speak.
And this great July event must end with photo session with Ucok Homicide =)

To make this type of fuel you would need a distiller and the finished product must be 180 to 190 proof. This means less than 5% water left in the alcohol. There is a book I recommend you check out at your local library or purchase and that is, 'How to Make Your Own Alcohol Fuels' by Larry W. Carley. For more information look here:

Mickey's Toontown Fair is expected to close in February to make way for the Fantasyland expansion, according to a post on the Disney Parks blog.
Mickey and Minnie, whose houses are in Mickey's Toontown Fair, will move to a space in Town Square Exposition Hall on Main Street U.S.A. Tinker Bell will be moving to Disney's Hollywood Studios.
When complete, the expanded Fantasyland will feature a Little Mermaid-themed attraction, similar to what Disney is building in California, and an expanded Dumbo attraction. The new land will also include a number of attractions themed on Disney princesses.
The new and expanded Fantasyland is expected to open by 2013.
Mickey's Toontown Fair opened as Mickey's Birthdayland in 1988 in time for Mickey Mouse's 60th birthday. The land was originally intended to be a temporary addition to the Magic Kingdom, but it was so popular, Disney officials decided to keep the land.
Even though the land was intended to be temporary, Disney officials put a lot of effort into building the Magic Kingdom's seventh land – including building a third station for the Walt Disney World Railroad and realigning the Tomorrowland Speedway to accommodate the area.
In 1990, the land reopened as Mickey's Starland. Mickey's Toontown Fair debuted in 1996 as a revamped version of its predecessors.
Over the years, the land was home to Grandma Duck's Farm and Minnie Moo – a cow famous for her Mickey Mouse ear-like spots on her side. The land's "thrill" ride is The Barnstormer at Goofy's Wiseacre Farms, a pint-sized rollercoaster, which will be re-themed as part of the expansion.
The land will close for good on Feb. 11, according to Disney. Disney said the Walt Disney World Railroad will continue to operate even though the land will be closed.

Yeats extends unbeaten sequence
IT COULD scarcely be described as smooth, let alone scintillating, but in maintaining his unbeaten record at Leopardstown yesterday, Yeats persuaded one leading bookmaker to shorten his already cramped odds as favourite for the Vodafone Derby.
The only defence for William Hill cutting Yeats from 11-4 to 5-2 is that there are not exactly an army of credible opponents among the Epsom candidates. The race desperately needs something substantial to emerge at York this week.
Aidan O'Brien, whose Ballydoyle operation has sustained a series of recent setbacks, was entitled to be relieved that Yeats did not fluff his lines yesterday, when he was sent off at 1-5 to beat three rivals in the Derrinstown Stud Derby Trial.
This is a familiar route to Epsom for…

After freezing 4-plus gallon of pomegranate nibs, and eating more than a few, I suddenly had the inspiration to dehydrate some. What a great addition to my backpacking menu! The tangy, sweet, crunchy red little jewels would certainly add some zest and–oh yes–antioxidants to the usual trail food. Dried pomegranate nibs are used in Indian cooking,* I'd heard, so obviously they dried well. Right? Right!
I had a quart of freshly shelled pips that I spread on paper circles on the 5 dehydrator trays in the early afternoon. Before going to bed that night, I re-stacked the trays since the bottom one was looking pretty close to done. By morning, before tea, everything was dry. Sticky, but dry. Yum! A quart had reduced to just over a cup. Not as red, but just as sweet, tangy & crunchy and certainly more appropriate for hiking food.
Aside: As usual, the whole fruit is better for you than the juice alone. Pomegranate seeds provide most of the antioxidents and the fiber. But don't feel compelled to eat the rind!
Honestly, I don't have any idea how I'm going to incorporate these delicious dried nibs into backpacking food, but I did make a scrumptious at-home treat by mixing a few tablespoons into some raw almond butter & honey. Candy! Just as good as the "fudge" I'd made a few days earlier with raw pumpkin seed butter, Dagoba cocoa and backyard honey. I'm thinking that recipe might work for backpacking, especially if I put it in one of those squeeze tubes. (Those 2 weeks ranting about sugar must have activated my sweet tooth. Hmm.)
For backpackers who have hot breakfast cereal, dried pom nibs would be great in oatmeal, cream of wheat or rice porridge, I bet. Maybe I'll just drop a spoonful into my morning tea and eat 'em with a spoon once I get to the bottom. Or make some kind of savory pom cracker …
I did try a zucchini nut cracker on the dehydrator, too, but it had too much fat, even for me, and didn't seem sturdy enough to go backpacking. I'm going to experiment with it and report back. In the meantime, if you'd like to try the original recipe, you can visit The Sunny Raw Kitchen I like to browse the raw food recipes for easy dehydrator foods. Sometimes they are good for backpacking & sometimes not.
Next time, I promise: the pease porridge recipe for which everyone is awaiting so eagerly. It's just not as pretty as pomegranates!
*More About That: Anardana powder (ground, dried pomegranate seeds) is used as a spice in Indian cooking to add a sweet/sour flavor. It is also a thickener, I've heard. The blog Life Begins @ 30 provides a recipe for using anardana in a potato dish! Too bad I don't eat potatoes …

Herbal Medicine Training in South Carolina - SC
How to Become an Herbalist in South Carolina
In a March 2010 an article by MSNBC reported on the many uses of cayenne peppers, "The latest research indicates that the sizzling spice may also assist in weight control." This is just one of many possible health benefits of herbs. This may be good news since South Carolina ranks number 11 in obesity (22% among adults alone) across the United States according to statemster.com. As an up-and-coming health career, the herbalist will likely play a role in helping to solve South Carolina's obesity issue, as well as other health related problems. Formal herbalist training in South Carolina prepares you to understand how herbs can be used to treat and prevent disease and improve a patients overall health.
Training to become an herbalist can take on many forms. Some students opt to complete one of several certification programs available around the state, or from online schools and training facilities. Other students who wish to obtain a more professional level will choose a related integrative health care field degree such as acupuncture or naturopathic medicine. Herbal medicine training in South Carolina will continue to evolve as more research is committed to natural approaches to health and wellness. One good resource for keeping up with changes in the field is the North Eastern Herbal Association.

As usual you decide what you see. I would love to get some comments on facebook with your thoughts on what it is.. Is it lights from a Lunar city.?? is it just sun refleksion from object on the ground.?

In honor of finding that delicate balance, I wanted to link up to a series I did exactly a year ago on this very subject. On choosing the best therapy for your preemie.
Part 1 - so what is therapy anyway?
Part 2 - on being your child's best advocate
I guess we consider ourselves lucky or are completely naive. Though sometimes have guilt. Our 24 weeker does not have any therapies!?!? Sometimes I wonder if he should...or if we somehow just got very lucky. I don't know. Or are we completely blind to what he might need. No evaluation has suggested he needs any. I hope and pray everyday that this is right and somewhere we didn't miss the mark for pushing harder!
I'm sure if your doctor and evaluation team see no need, then consider yourself super blessed and don't spend time worrying about it! Yes, it's very rare (24 weeker...wow!), but not totally unheard of.
Now... that preemie mama guilt. I hear ya! It's very hard not to compare stories. Someone almost always has it worse and it's hard not to go there - to the place of guilt. For me, it's been a continual journey to learn to be content right where I'm at :)

ReviewI bought this oh so reliable Camry in March 2010 with only 96k miles. I was thinking this car would at least run to 200k or maybe even 300k, but I found out it won't even make it to 130. I have 123 on the clock now, and in the time I had it, I poured over $6500 in repairs. A rebuilt transmission/engine, faulty airbag module, two broken window motors, and a new gas tank. The transmission went out at 100k, and the engine went out at 103k. Now with this "new" engine, it loves to stall at red lights. Not really helpful if I'm stuck on a grade in traffic. Also, the interior quality sucks. My door panels are all cracking and falling off because of weakened clips. Thats quality for ya!
Best FeaturesDecent engine power (When it works), Seats are comfortable, and the cabin is very roomy. The car has many features as well.
Worst FeaturesPaint quality, Interior quality, and engine

Wow, you must have gotten a rare lemon or one that was supremely abused. I have owned 5 Camrys in the last 10 years. I drove my first 277,000 miles and sold it. I still see it go by now and then. My second I bought for 1500 dollars extremely abused. Some kid got stuck in a snow bank and overreved the engine. I dropped a engine in it from a local junk yard. It lives! I has 200,000 miles on it and purrs like a kitten. Shines up like a new penny. My wife needed a car for work. I bought a 99 Camry from a lady on Craiglist who was highly motivated to sell for 3000 bucks. I have had the car 4 years now and the only repair has been a broken door handle. I bought a 96 from a lady two weeks ago 239000 miles, extremely abused. She lives out in the mountains with a road like a creek bed. The struts and bushings need to be replaced. The engine and transmission are tight. The paint is excellent. The interior is in good shape. This will be my daughters college car after some standard repairs. Oh, I paid 750.00 for the car. Onward, my fifth camry got totaled at 170,000 miles. I am parting it out because the engine and tranny are tight. I do not recognize the experience you are talking about except in the case of extreme abuse. Camrys a solid cars that run and run and run- you get the point. Even when totaled they run. They are tremendous money savers. I love the tight tolerences and ingenuity these cars are built with. I would give the Camry another try. I have owned just about every brand of car made- Ford, Dodge, Chevy, Pontiac, Honda Accord(Great Car), Chrysler(Ouch), Nissan -on and on. The Accord is the best, but the camry is competitive and easier to work on. Your experience is not the norm.Report it

So I've just received news that the laptop I ordered in Hong Kong has already arrived at my aunt's. Yay! That means I can blog more regularly and don't have to pester my mom or my sister to borrow their own gadgets.
I really don't recall when these pictures were taken. Seems like ages ago.
Yes, I've been a very busy bee beading and designing accessories in time for the Christmas season. Shown above is the necklace version of the Little Deaths Bracelet that sold out two years ago.
To be fair, I did draft a business plan for Bosquejo years ago, but many interruptions and delays have held the brand back. Hopefully, I can get it going. I have a feeling next year is the year for expansion.
Besides the arrival of a new Macbook Pro, the carpenters at home have also just finished the two shelves that I commissioned. Am downright giddy just thinking about organizing the piles of books that have made my room into a bodega.
Once the piles clear and the books stand upright, it will be easier for me to refer back to the stories, poems, news releases, photographs, etc that have influenced not only the way I think and write, but also how they have formed my seemingly haphazard aesthetic.
My mind palace approximately transformed into a tangible library, which, no matter how I deny its physical necessity, will be a huge help in looking at things more objectively. How do they say it in finance – to look at things with a "long view"?
The piece above I named the Orbital Galaxy Necklace. Inspired of course by the Infinity Gauntlet comics series. Such a tiny, minimalist object to signify a maximalist, megalomanic perspective.
So where am I writing this now? At work, of course, where a lot of things have likewise happened – from a hiking, swimming, and singing Saturday road trip to confronting impeding business challenges.
I won't deny that keeping myself offline has been more than pleasant – better to keep my focus on the work on hand. But soon, this diary of sorts will also need to make way for a more intimate form of expression.
So I guess that's it for a brief update. Back to work!

Peanut Butter Brownie Mega Bites Supreme
I am guest posting over at Mom's Crazy Cooking today!
There is a surprise lurking inside these brownies … and I think you are really going to love it.
Head on over to Mom's Crazy Cooking to find out what it is!
or scroll down … 🙂
- 1 batch of your favorite brownie batter (one that makes a 13 x 9 inch pan of brownies … if your brownie recipe or mix only makes a 9x9 inch pan of brownies, double the recipe)
- 12 mini-Reese's Peanut Butter cups
- Chopped peanuts
- Caramel sauce
- Chocolate chips. melted, with a little milk stirred in to thin the chocolate so it drizzles better
- Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray. Mix up the brownie batter and divide evenly amongst the 12 spots. Press a mini-Reese's cup into each one down into the batter so that the top of the Reese's cup is evenly aligned with the batter.
- Bake the brownie mega-bites according to your brownie directions. As they rise, the brownies will rise up over the edges of the peanut butter cups and make a sort of "basket" or "nest".
- Fill each brownie basket with chopped peanuts, then drizzle with caramel and melted chocolate chips.

will come as the Messiah from a land between two seas in the East.
He will be born in the desert; his mother being a prostitute to the Jews and Hindus; he will be a lying and false prophet and will try to ride to heaven like Elias. He will begin work in the East, as a soldier and preacher of religion when thirty years old.
Antichrist and his army will conquer Rome, kill the Pope and take the throne.
He will restore the Turkish regime destroyed by the Great Monarch. The Jews, knowing from the Bible that Jerusalem will be the seat of the Messiah, will come from everywhere and accept Antichrist as the Messiah.
He will be able to fly. His flight will take place from Mt. Calvary. He will tell the crowd he is going after Henoch and Elias (who has arisen from the dead) in order to kill them again. (Ven B. Holzhauser)

I cannot stand people who burp in public honestly. What are your pet peeves?
Most Helpful Girl
My biggest pet peeves
-Someone eat chews louder than they talk. They make a lot of sounds when they chew their food.
It drives me up the wall!
-Someone who has no basic manners.
You say "Hello, How are you?" only to get no reply.
If you hold the door for them... they walk by instead of saying "Thank you".
What were you raised by baboons?
-Someone who walks around with their music speaker blasting.
I don't want to hear your music!
How disrespectful can you be!00|00|0

People that litter cigarette butts in public. Ewwww gross. Not to mention just how bad environmentally they are.10|10|0
Very true, most places here have banned smoking

Yes what makes me mad is I think why should us non-smokers have to put up with smokers mess because it is easy for them just to litter their butts.
Thank you for MHA

GUANGZHOU, China -- The organizers of the 2012 GTI Asia China Expo report that a distinguished roster of international leaders in electronic game design and manufacture has been assembled for the upcoming event, which will be held at the China Import and Export Fair Pazhou Complex here from Dec. 16 through 18.
(The Chinese amusement show was originally scheduled for Sept. 23-25, but was postponed because of its time proximity to the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.)
The amusement industry has been adversely affected by the global economy, the show's management noted, but increasing stability makes it likely that the show will be a catalyst for the release of pent-up demand, as the new year approaches.
Indicative of the impending recovery is enthusiastic international support for the show. Inquiries have been received from buyers from around the world -- and even more prospects will attend from China, the show's organizing committee reports. The Japan Amusement Machinery Manufacturers Association and leading Japanese companies, including Namco Bandai Games and Sega, have signed on as GTI Expo exhibitors.
Noteworthy Chinese exhibitors include Wahlap, Shiyu, Guangzhou Sealy Electronic Technology, UNIS, Mecpower, Baohui, Macrown, Tong Li, Super Wing and Belrare. China's game manufacturers predict that they will supply 80% of the equipment on the global market in the near future.
The China Import and Export Fair Pazhou Complex is the largest exhibition venue in Asia, with an indoor area covering 130,000 square meters (almost 1,400,000 sq.ft.) and six exhibition halls. It opened in 2002.
Information about the 2012 GTI Asia China Expo may be requested from the exhibition's sponsor publication by emailing to firstname.lastname@example.com.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- The transition for one was more bumpy than smooth. His top receiver, his security blanket, the one who often found a way to get open no matter the situation, lay on the field at Lucas Oil Stadium slapping the ground almost three months ago.
The other has five Super Bowl appearances on his resume, but not even the future Hall of Famer could say things were easy right away without his go-to guy.
Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck overcame his early struggles of not having Reggie Wayne by working, and working some more, to develop continuity with his young receivers. New England quarterback Tom Brady's transition without tight end Rob Gronkowski started out shaky, too, but evened out as the season progressed.
Luck and Brady will be the marquee names in Saturday's AFC divisional playoff game, and they're the reason why the two teams have reached this point. They've proven they can get the most out of their unproven receivers.
"[It's been] a challenge, but also an opportunity for guys," Luck said. "[They've] made the most of it. [Coach Chuck Pagano] tells us every week, 'Everybody prepares like a starter.' You never know, the injuries, whatever it is, it's an unfortunate part of the game."
LaVon Brazill, Griff Whalen and Da'Rick Rogers aren't names people immediately bring up when talking about the Colts' receiving corp. Brazill was suspended the first four games of the season. Whalen and Rogers spent most of the season on the practice squad. But there was Rogers going up and outleaping a Kansas City Chiefs' defender to bring in a 46-yard pass from Luck in the wild-card playoff game last Saturday.
Brady had Gronkowski, one of the league's best tight ends, for all of seven games before a knee injury ended his season.
Enter Julian Edelman.
Who? Exactly.
The 5-foot-10 went from having a career-high 21 receptions in 2012 to hauling in 105 passes -- good enough for fourth in the league -- for 1,056 yards this season.
"Obviously, [the Patriots] got a first-ballot Hall-of-Famer in Tom Brady that is under center running that whole thing," Pagano said. "We've got guys that are athletic and guys that can make plays. They've got guys that are athletic and can make plays. They've done a good job of bringing guys in and plugging them in. That system has been in place. They make adjustments here and there. But he's done a great job with adjusting to life without Gronk, life without some of the other guys. It's going to be a huge challenge."
It seems like there's a revolving door when it comes to the Patriots and their players. There's not too many Waynes or Marvin Harrisons, players who have spent their entire career with the same team, there. The Patriots have no problem replacing a player and bringing in somebody else, which is part of the reason why Brady always seems to be able to find a way to make things work.
"For me, over the course of playing a few years we lost certain guys at certain points in the year," Brady said. "I think the main thing is just to try to figure out what you need to do as an offense to still be productive. You can lose a tight end or receiver or running back at any point in any game, and no one really feels sorry for you at that point.
"Losing any player hurts on offense or defense, but you've still got to have enough guys on your team and have enough flexibility within your game plan to adapt and make the changes necessary so you can still be productive."
Luck and Brady both had built-in excuses if they struggled all season. Their competitive nature wouldn't allow it, though. It pushed them more.
They handle things in different ways -- Luck isn't one to be seen on camera going off on the sidelines during a game -- but one of the things they have in common is that they're demanding and expect the best out of their teammates.
Extra time in the film room. Extra passes before and after practice to ensure their timing is right. The conversations they have as they walk down the hallway at the facility.
Luck had to do those things to make sure he had somebody else to go to when T.Y. Hilton was not an option.
Luck had a relationship with Whalen because they were teammates at Stanford. Brazill and Luck were teammates as rookies, but the starting quarterback didn't have much to work with when it came to Rogers because most of his passes were thrown by backups Matt Hasselbeck and Chandler Harnish while on the practice squad.
Trust is a necessity between quarterback and receiver. Luck showed he had it in Rogers when the rookie caught six passes for 107 yards and two touchdowns Dec. 8 against the Cincinnati Bengals.
"He does do a good job of staying on top of us," Rogers said. "We're like a family here and when something needs to be done, it's nothing personal. It's what we need to have done to win the game.
"We might be walking down the hall and he might grab you for a minute and talk about a play or talk about a certain concept. It's all day long, in the middle of practice, before practice, in meetings, in the film room."

The Supreme Court is attempting to give the radical liberals a chance to assume control America by nullifying President Trump's race win. This would be a gross overextend of their energy and would cause the following common war.
Notwithstanding when the vote fizzles, which it unavoidably will, the liberal prevailing press will utilize it as an opportunity to assault President Trump with lie after lie making the liberals take up arms of America.
The claim was recorded right around 4 months back, in December, when a couple of individuals from the Occupy Democrats utilized it as an approach to battle the President.
No one believed that the decision would truly have a shot at being done over once more, since that is silly right? Trump won reasonable and square. Evidently not according to the Supreme court.
Trump himself even declined to discuss it, in light of the fact that the idea that there would be any issues with his decision win is absolutely crazy.
It doesn't resemble that ow in any case, in light of the fact that the Supreme Court has really planned an opportunity to tune in to this hearing. This would be an awful thought by the Supreme Court in the event that they really led against Trump. Ideally the traditionalist judges that are on the board can see that.

Recent examples of corporate users being rapped on the knuckles include global eyecare company Bausch & Lomb and Clackmannanshire Council in Scotland, both of which agreed to pay undisclosed sums to the Business Software Alliance (BSA).
As vendors get tough with organisations using unlicensed applications, software regulators have identified how legislation could lead to a greater role for resellers prepared to help maintain software licences.
Richard Willmott, general manager for the Federation Against Software Theft (FAST), said as vendors started to track down illegitimate users of software, dealers should form tight relationships with their customers.
"There is a lot of opportunity for resellers. They should be providing legal advice and offering licensing support. Businesses should not be scared off by a slight price increase if they avoid the legal hassles," he argued.
Mike Newton, UK programme manager for BSA, said corporates had to face up to the challenge of cleaning up their software: "We can't stress enough how important it is for companies to audit their PCs and tally up the software in use against the licences or licensing agreements they have."
Things are destined to become even tougher for licence dodgers when The Miller Act comes into effect later this year, placing the responsibility of unlicensed software on company directors, not their IT managers. Anyone found guilty of disobeying the Act could face a ten-year prison sentence.
On another front, more regulations forming part of the Waste of Electronic and Electrical Equipment (WEEE) legislation will be introduced into England by 2004.

This session was run for most of a school day as the first phase of an 'Abaze Mentoring Progression' scheme. As you will see it diverges from the usual 'Vision My Future' format. Many thanks to Rachel White and the team of Clarke Willmott for their contribution.
Ablaze Session Plan
21 November 2012 10:30 to 15:00
Introduction – 15 mins (10:30-10:45)
Everyone to go round and introduce themselves
Aim: Give them an opportunity to learn our names
Ice Breaker-20 mins (10:45-11:05)
Imagine you've been shipwrecked and everyone has been stranded on a deserted island! Each person is allowed to bring one object to the island — ideally something that represents you or something that you enjoy. What object would you bring and why?
Think creatively! And NO TECHNOLOGY! Something you love and couldn't live without….
Aim: This should help the children relax a little and give us, and them, the opportunity to get to know each other a little bit better. It's just a getting-to-know-you session.
Structure – 10 mins (11:05-11:15)
We will give them an outline of the course – what we're doing, why, what will happen, how often, who will deliver sessions. We want them to think about their own personal development – is there anything they would like us to focus on or do? Think about who you are as a person, what do you want to be when you grow up and how you will achieve your dreams. This programme is all about YOU.
Aim: provide an overview of the programme and get the students thinking about their personal development and steps they need to take to achieve them. Get them thinking about what they want to achieve out of this.
Group Round – Qualities – 20 mins inc set up time (11:15-11:35)
Get them sat in a circle as a group and use a ball to throw to each of them. Everyone to say something they would like to improve and why (inc us!)
Aim: get them thinking about their qualities and things they want to improve about themselves such as timekeeping, procrastination, easily distracted etc. This will assist in the next round when discussing the good and bad qualities of role models and identifying the good qualities thei good role models have.
Role Models – 30 mins includes set up time (11:35-12:05)
Print off role models, good and bad. The groups should identify in pairs the good and bad role models. They should then list the qualities that make those roles models good and bad. They will need to then need to stand in front of the group and explain why in pairs.
Someone to make notes of this on the whiteboard.
Aim: identifying the good role models will help them draw on the good qualities and those needed to help them realise their dreams.
Group Round – what is success? – 30 mins includes set up time (12:05-12:35)
Group discussion – on a large sheet of paper (flipchart paper) the group should go round and write down what 'success' means to them.
This should be a brain storm – we should ask some of them to explain why X means to success to them so things such as winning, owning a house, having a job, going to university etc.
Aim: get the students to think about the meaning of success, how to be successful and what they will need to do to be successful
Dragons Den - First Half (prep 12:35-13:30)
Run videos of good and bad pitches.
In your groups you have to come up with a product. The dragons will give you £100 to develop it. Your brief is a Christmas product – something you would put Christmas presents in or under i.e. stockings, gifts bags etc. It shouldn't be a tree but can be something like a tree.
Note: coloured pens, highlighters, flip chart paper,
Think about your design – who is your target audience, how much will it cost, how it will be marketed, in which shops etc. Design your product – think about the material you'll use, your design. You will then have to pitch to the three dragons who will be X X and X.
They will choose the best product and design to invest their £100 in.
Return at 2pm
Second Half – pitches 45 mins (14:00-14:45)
The pitches will take place after lunch. Each pitch should be between 5-10 minutes.
The dragons will provide their comments/feedback to each group – a couple of minutes providing feedback.
Reflection – 15 mins
Talk about aims of today's sessions – learning about themselves, identifying their qualities, picking out role models and thinking about success and what makes us successful.
For the next session they should just start thinking about their career aims and aspirations. Where would they like to be in 10 years and how they think they will get there? What do they need to do now and in the future to ensure they achieve their goals?
End of session!
Praise from the teacher
The session was attended by the teacher who is leading the scheme in Brislington Enterprise College. Though typically busy she sent out this mail at 7pm the same night:
Hi Rachel,
I just wanted to send an email to say thank you (and your team) so much for today's session. It was brilliant watching the students slowly come alive as you all made them feel more comfortable and engaged. (I especially loved Dragon's Den!)I can't wait to see how much the rest of the sessions help them to develop now and I look forward to hearing from you about the next session. Have a lovely week in the meantime.Kate--________________Mrs Katie ReedCulture
