"On The Go" is a series dedicated to helping you stay low-carb/keto while out and about and on the go! This article focuses on keeping you keto at McDonald's.
McDonald's is an American fast food company, founded in 1940. Originally, it was a restaurant operated by Richard and Maurice McDonald, in San Bernardino, California. They restarted their business as a hamburger stand.
In 1955, businessman Ray Kroc joined the company as a franchise agent. He proceeded to purchase the chain from the McDonald brothers.
McDonald's is the world's largest restaurant chain, serving over 69 million customers daily. Although McDonald's is known for its hamburgers, they also sell cheeseburgers, chicken products, french fries, soft drinks, milkshakes, wraps, and desserts.
Let's take a look at the top three items you can order (and how to order them) from McDonald's that will keep you on the straight and narrow when it comes to a low-carb or keto lifestyle while on the go.
#1 – Pick a Burger, Any Burger
You can easily order any of the hamburgers listed on the menu without a bun. Keep in mind, due to the processed nature of their cheese slices, any burger with cheese at McDonald's will have hidden carbs. It's best to always stick with the basics when ordering a hamburger as the toppings and extra "bits and pieces" can quickly add up to a lot of carbs.
Here's What to Order
If a hamburger strikes your fancy while being keto at McDonald's, then here's the easiest thing to order.
McDouble, plain with cheese (optional)
You can always order multiple burgers if two burger patties aren't enough to satisfy your hunger.
Nutritional Info
To make burger nutrition simple, the nutritional info will be as follows for two patties and one slice of cheese. You can easily do the math on this if you are eating more than one.
- Total Calories = 270
- Fat = 20g
- Carbohydrates = 4g
- Protein = 20g
The absolute easiest way to keep the carbs low at McDonald's is to have a burger without the bun. It's also important to keep the component of the cheese in mind as well, as it adds 2g of carbohydrates per slice. In our opinion, this is the best menu option for a fast and easy way to stay keto at McDonald's.
#2 – Side Salad with Ranch Dressing
Side salads are a drop-dead simple menu item at McDonald's. The salad isn't the biggest you've ever seen, but its cheap and is probably one of their healthier menu options. It comes (generally) with two cherry tomatoes, a carrot slice or two, and the rest is lettuce. Add some of the dressing (read not the entire packet) and you've got a pretty tasty salad on your hands.
Here's What to Order
If a side salad strikes your fancy while being keto at McDonald's, then here's the easiest thing to order:
Side salad with ranch
Nutritional Info
Be very careful with this step. The packet of ranch dressing you will get has 11g of carbs for the entire packet. We recommend using a small amount (around a spoonful) to reduce the carb count significantly. Also, keep in mind this will lower the fat and calorie content, so eating a side salad by itself is definitely not going to be a filling meal.
- Total Calories = 100
- Fat = 4g
- Carbohydrates = 3.5g
- Protein = 0g
#3 – Artisan Grilled Chicken Sandwich
The Artisan Grilled Chicken Sandwich is pretty simple. It's one of the sandwiches McDonald's created to try and revive their "healthy" side of their food business. The original sandwich is grilled chicken on a bun, topped with tomato and lettuce.
Here's What to Order
If a grilled chicken sandwich strikes your fancy while being keto at McDonald's, then here's the easiest thing to order:
Artisan grilled chicken sandwich, no bun, with a side of creamy ranch sauce
Nutritional Info
Instead of adding mayo to the sandwich for more fats, opt for the creamy ranch sauce which adds fats and only 1g of carbohydrates. The mayo is highly processed and actually adds a decent amount of carbs in something that really should only add fats.
- Total Calories = 240
- Fat = 14g
- Carbohydrates = 1g
- Protein = 28g
Final Words
These are what we would consider being the top three best choices while eating on the go at McDonald's. So many items on their menu contain bread and have added sugars, making them unfit to eat on the keto lifestyle. Please keep in mind, there are other menu combinations that will achieve this goal as well.
Have an ordering/food combination you think works well for keto at McDonald's? Let us know in the comments!

The names Mohamed Al Abbar and Jeff Bezos together evoke images of the struggle between Noon and Amazon to dominate Middle East e-commerce. We've uncovered a real estate transaction that connects the two men in a rather unusual way.
At the center of this story is Gulf Islamic Investments LLC (GII), a "UAE-based financial services company regulated by the Emirates Securities and Commodities Authority". GII started as Union National Financial Consultancy in 2004 and re-branded in 2014 to become GII.
As per the GII website:
Gulf Islamic Investments is committed to providing a diverse set of unique, duly researched, well-structured and risk-mitigated investment opportunities to its clients, with a view to achieve consistent and superior returns in the fields of private equity, venture capital, infrastructure and real estate.
Under the leadership of a committed group of prominent shareholders and investors, GII's team enjoys collective investment, strategic management, finance and accounting experience. GII and its team enjoy a track record of managing $2.5 billion in assets and securing $5.5 billion in debt and in excess of $1.0 billion in equity.
The Transaction
For much of its history GII has operated quietly with limited media attention. That is until a transaction it did in late 2017 when it made a USD 144mn acquisition of Amazon's logistics center in Germany.
According to the article, "These newly built facilities are leased out to Amazon on a long-term unbreakable lease with regular rental uplifts linked to Germany CPI."
It's fair to say the role of landlord at one of Amazon's largest European logistics center is a rather sensitive one, as warehousing and logistics is at the heart of Amazon's retail success.
At the time, GII's co-CEOs and co-Founders were Mohammed Al-Hassan and Pankaj Gupta. GII's board was chaired by Mohammed Al Nasri.
What the website doesn't detail is GII's close relationship with Al Abbar. So close in fact that, according to Bloomberg, Al Abbar was the Founding Chairman of GII.
Links to Al Abbar
Using an internet archive tool we discovered that the GII website in February of 2017 listed Mohamed Al Abbar as the Chairman of the Board. We also found a group photo with other board members.
In fact Al Abbar was listed as Founding Chairman as late as the 23rd December 2017, four days prior to the announcement of GII's acquisition of Amazon's European logistics center. This firmly suggests Al Abbar was Chairman of GII whilst it was evaluating the Amazon transaction.
- Why did Al Abbar stop being Chairman at GII around the same time GII acquired an important Amazon logistics center asset?
- At the time of sale of their European logistics center, did Amazon know that GII was closely related to Al Abbar, founder of Noon and board member of Emaar Malls (owner of Namshi)?
- Has Al Abbar, or by extension, anyone from Noon or Namshi (now part of Dubai Malls) ever had access to the Amazon European logistics center?
- Is Amazon comfortable – given the above questions – with their current landlord in Germany?

In this What's New in 10.0 video, we will cover the new and improved Patch Management feature of the KACE Systems Management Appliance or SMA.
Nearly all of the patching improvements in 10.0 are "under-the-hood", but there are a few differences in the UI - which we will see in this video.
You may not have been aware, but in all previous versions, KACE has utilized a 3rd-party patch feed to supply patches to the SMA. Starting with version 10.0, we are replacing this feed with the new KACE Patch Catalog.
Changing the way the KACE SMA patch catalog is updated and maintained will provide distinct advantages to you. Patches will be available to you faster than the method used in prior versions. The KACE Patch Catalog also includes more publishers and products - providing a wider catalog of patches to choose from than ever before.
When working with the new version for the first time, please note that the initial catalog download may take longer than you are used to. However, once the initial patches have been downloaded and you adhere to best practices - as outlined by this video - subsequent patching performance should be improved.
Though the appliance supports the patching of servers, desktops, laptops, and tablets - whether they run Windows or Mac OS - this video will focus on Windows computers. To start with, we'll overview the Patch Management Best-Practices.

The "promise to respect" as Church law the New Code of Canon Law is to respect a number of supposed laws directly contrary to Church doctrine.

(SPOILERS) Fear the Walking Dead Q&A — Danay Garcia (Luciana)
Danay Garcia, who plays Luciana on AMC's Fear the Walking Dead, talks about returning to the show and Luciana's devastating loss in Episode 3.
Q: What was it like to be reunited with your co-stars this season after spending some time apart?
A: I was so excited! I knew in my heart that I still had so much to tell and that this character still had so much to say. I was like, "Please! I'm not done yet!"… I had so much to tell Nick! [Laughs]… I'm exploring everything I wanted to explore as an actor. I'm really living the dream. I'm very happy that we're going in this direction… The audience is going to have a great time.
Q: What was it like working with so many new faces?
A: I'm working with so many people I didn't work with before, like Colman [Domingo]. It was so exciting to work with him and get to know him more. I got to work with Lennie James and the new characters [played by] Jenna Elfman and Garret Dillahunt. It's great to be a part of this new point of view on the show and this new chapter.
Q: What's it like for Luciana to be in a new community after fleeing Broke Jaw Ranch?
A: Coming to this new community, all of us have to adjust together at the same time – the entire cast and the characters. We got to do it together and that really made us a tighter unit and a family. We had to learn how to be in a different environment and how to deal with new people. Story-wise, it's challenging because we're trying to learn from the past. We know each other's pasts really well so anytime somebody tries to do something wrong, we have to be like, "No. That did not work before." That was really fun to do. It's great to have the time jumps and play with that as an actor.
Q: How does the loss of Nick impact Luciana, especially because they only recently reunited?
A: He's the reason why she got out of the hole when the entire Colonia died. He said, "I will never leave you" and now he's gone. Nick is the heart and one of the huge pieces of the story… This season has been really difficult, emotionally. It's usually demanding, emotionally, but this is something nobody is ready for.
Q: How did it impact you, as an actor? What was the energy like on set?
A: It was something I kept telling myself wouldn't happen. You just don't want to confront that day you're going to shoot it. You just don't want to deal with it. You act like everything is great. Even on that day, I was like, "This is going to be an easy day!"…I knew it was going to be a ride, I could feel my body getting ready for that. It was difficult going through it. I couldn't think of Nick not being there anymore. It was back and forth emotions for us… It was a journey and I gave as much as I had to honor that loss and that story. It was something that moved me for days and not just me but the entire cast and crew.
Q: Nick was on a mission to help Charlie. How does Luciana make sense of the threat that a child poses?
A: I think that's part of her journey… A child is supposed to be an innocent human who doesn't know any better. You forgive a lot, but you have to know what kind of child this is. He [Nick] was so into trying to save this kid and, in a way, he's trying to save himself and the little child inside him… When Luciana was like little Charlie in La Colonia – where everything was a lie and Alejandro was lying about being immune – Nick saves her and says, "If you don't leave now, you're going to die." She didn't believe him, but he was right. He got me out of that place. He always tells the truth.

"I'm just off to ride my bike in town". A phrase so lacking in machismo it hints as ladies clothing in your wardrobe. And yet it's a precursor to a splinter riding activity that has much to recommend it.
What's good; It's close, it's easy to start and hard to finish, it embeds useful skills for trail riding and it hints at urban rebellion. What's bad; you feel old and sometimes a little stupid. It's the clothes you see, cooler friends than me (that's everybody) pull off the jeans and hoodie "Urban Grungy" look while I'm reduced to sporting a pair of Fox Huck Pants superbly disguised as those polyester trousers you wore at school, clashing horribly with a jey riding jacket. I tried a hoodie once but when even my own kids were almost crippled with laughter, I reassigned it to the cat basket. Accessories include knee and elbow pads, helmets and the smallest bike in your shed.
Different tribes roam the streets all sneering at the emperors new clothes. Most of the cool cats on a Friday night regard us with the same embarrassment and disdain as if they'd interrupted their parents having sex. We respond by laughing at their acne and riding over their drunken bodies thrashing in the road. We're all part of Tony's respect agenda. Sort of.
There are two distinct types of street; riding off stuff and riding onto stuff. Riding off stuff is easier for me as it generally involves velocity, steps and gaps. A phase space that requires little skill, just a blind leap of faith and big forks. A whole bastardised snowboard dialect describes the moves; fakie, manual, nose pick, tyre grab, etc. Mine all start with arse clench and finish with a combination of dislocated ankles, sore wrists and – for the unwary late night shopper – stunned pedestrian.
The slower stuff is a nightmare. Dropping off walls higher than six inches demands a slow speed manual that I've always assumed requires wires or a hidden propulsion system. I nervously teeter on the end of the wall before dropping the front end off in the manner of a wheeled spade. No amount of weight shift, body position or appeals to higher authority make any difference. It's basically my signature move: "The Marzocchi Kango". Practise doesn't help.
Tuition does. One of the riders – who cannot be more than 15 and I'm concerned our actions may be construed as grooming – has a proper trials bike and knows how to use it. It's an odd contraption with two tiny yet meaty wheels joined by low slung girders and missing vital components such as saddles and suspension. It really is "the tool for the job�? but for the unskilled it's akin to riding a circus bike, you get on it and the only trick you can pull is falling off. This fella however can bunnyhop it four feet onto a wall which is both amazing and frustrating to watch.
"Straighten your arms, go backwards not upwards and really commit to the move" he offered followed by a whispered "grandad". After a few minutes my Conneresque grunting and frenzied bar wrenching gained me at least a toehold on the mountain of street riding. The technique is to hunch over the bike until the front wheel breaches the gap and then kick backwards and – unnaturally – down. The balance point is way beyond and behind your comfort zone but get it right and the bike floats over the gap before landing smoothly on the rear wheel. Just as I thought I'd completely sussed it, I called the school kid over so he could damn me with faint praise. Result: Spade.
On one occasion it went the other way, and no one was more surprised than I when the bike first reared like a frightened horse before rapidly upgrading to a Lippenzipper Stallion pawing skywards. I exited stage rear just in time to see it gallop across the road narrowly avoiding being crushed by a stunned Astra driver, who hadn't expected a riderless steed on the Queen's highway.
Flushed with success, I attempted the next level of progression known as the bunnyhop. Send the front wheel high before instantly raising the rear to the same level. It's a basic move to conquer walls and similar obstacles but, however basic, I cannot lodge the sequence into my muscle memory, never mind execute it with any style. While others smoothly float over curbs, my rear wheels slams into them with a thud that promises chiropractors riches in later life.
Two hours of this and you're knackered. However, a further unsung benefit of street riding, is that the finishing point is always within quaffing range of a pub or kebab van. No bike cleaning, no fettling, just shove it back from whence it came and enjoy the post ride euphoria without threatening the washing machine.
The next morning though is something different. My ankles have traded articulation in one plane for rotation in another that is not in the body manual. My wrist hurts and short of cuing up some lame masturbation gag, I can't think of a decent simile. My back however is fine as long as I remain horizontal and motionless. But I'm still smiling and once the Zimmer frame turns up, I'm raring for another go.
So kids, bad news I'm afraid. Old people can have fun too. Street riding – it's the new whist drive.

I believe that everyone is very familiar with the car charger. The car charger is used in electric vehicles and cars for charging, showing the characteristics of versatility, portability and fashion. So what is a car charger? Is it clear about its principles and features? Today, the car charger manufacturer will take you to know.
First, what is a car charger?
The car charger is a car charger that is used to charge digital products. Some high-end car chargers generally include two USB ports to charge two digital products at the same time. These products generally have overload protection, short circuit protection, high voltage input protection, high temperature protection, four safety protection functions to ensure safe use. The car charger can also be used at home, and it can realize three-in-one multi-purpose use of car charge, direct charge and USB charge.
The car charger is powered by a car battery (car 12V, truck 24V), and is widely used in lithium battery charging in various portable devices, such as mobile phones, PDAs, GPS, etc. The car charger should consider the actual demand of lithium battery charging (constant voltage CV, constant current CC, over voltage protection OVP), but also take into account the harsh environment of the car battery. Therefore, the power management IC selected by the car charging solution must simultaneously satisfy: a high-voltage, high-efficiency, high-reliability, low-frequency switching power supply chip.
Second, the principle of car charger
Using the socket of the car cigarette lighter as the power source, the power of the cigarette lighter comes from the battery of the car, and the voltage is DC12V. The car charger is a 12V voltage input charger. If you charge the phone, the general output voltage is 5V.
The car charger works like a voltage regulator, but there are some additional features, such as automatic power-down after it is fully charged. The car charger uses a car cigarette lighter as a power outlet to directly charge the phone.
Since the voltage provided by the car is low, only the overload protection circuit is needed inside the car charger. The front end of the car charger socket is designed with a fuse. When the current exceeds the overload protection circuit, the fuse is immediately blown and protected.
Third, the characteristics of the car charger
1. Safety: The car charger has passed the test of international safety performances such as CCC, UL, FCC, CE, etc., and has the guarantee of insurance company, which strongly guarantees the safety of use performance and consumer rights.
2, fashion: For the high-end consumer groups of car owners, the fashion of car chargers is also valued by manufacturers. Generally used ABS material and piano paint process, not only stylish, but also very good.
3. Versatility: The car charger is equipped with four AC adapters: American, British, Austrian and European. It is equipped with car charger, direct charge and USB to meet the charging under different conditions. Dual USB An output interface that can charge multiple electronic products.

Strengthening new bussineses to increase economic value of traditional rainforest products in a Sungai Utik village.
Help the Sungai Utik community to develop unique rain-forest food products for urban markets, and save 9600 Ha of traditional rainforest.
Explain your project idea (2,000 characters)The Sungai Utik Community is very special because it has managed to keep its 9600 ha's of traditional rainforests intact to this day, unlike many other villages in West Kalimantan that have succumbed to the expansion of palm oil plantations. Sekar Kawung Foundation has been working with this community to help build economic prosperity from their forest resources, by strengthening their culture and developing various income streams based on forest conservation. In 2015 - 2016 we assisted them to develop and market various community based eco-culture-tours in their forests. This work provided foundations for the village cooperative to add a bedroom to all the homes in the Sungai Utik Longhouse. During this period, we have also surveyed the fruit, nut, and palm sugar potential in the traditional forest belonging to the community, and trialled the production and marketing of various drinks from a wild forest mangos. In 2016 and 2017 Sekar Kawung (used to be GreenIndonesia) processed 500 Kg's of mango into cordials, bottled drinks and jams. All successfully accepted by the market. However the potential of wild mangos alone is between 200 - 400 tonnes per year. The potential is of large - but all these products are seasonal (between October and January) - So the community needs to be able to process the fruits into various jelly's, jams, wines, vinegars, dried fruits, pickles, etc. For this they will need to build a small industrial size processing facility, that uses renewable energy, including bottling facility, bakery, etc. We will help the community to develop the entire value chain of forest fruits, nuts and palm sugar sap products. From harvesting, post harvest processing, product development and marketing. Through the project we aim to develop a model of creating multiple income streams from a forest that is full of different semi-wild biodiversity, instead of the usual approach of developing a monoculture market oriented crop.
Who are the beneficiaries? (1,000 characters)
How is your idea unique? (1,000 characters)We primarily see biodiversity and culture as the main assets to help communities build economic prosperity. We help them dig deep into their traditional roots, and figure out how their culture, can contribute to solving todays environmental, social and economic problems. We work with the community to figure out what they can give the world...what value can they add? We strive to bring the community access of state of the art information technology, industrial and manufacturing technology, and business management systems. Out approach is not only rooted (as it works with what is thriving in the community), it is also holistic - in the sense that we work to develop multiple income streams for the market. We name this an "abundant economic" approach.
Idea Proposal Stage (choose one)
- Early Adoption: I have completed a pilot and analyzed the impact of that pilot on the intended users of the idea. I have begun to expand the pilot for early adoption.
Tell us more about your organization/company (1 sentence and website URL)
Expertise in sector
- 3-5 years
Organization Filing Status
- Yes, we are a registered non-profit.
- Yes, we are a registered company.
In 3-4 sentences, tell us the inspiration or story that encouraged you to start this project.We first visited this village in 2014 - when preparing a movie (https://youtu.be/_eyL1txmdbU ) about their culture and their rainforest. At the time we were still an informal group named GreenIndonesia, working with INFIS (the Indonesian Nature Film Society) to produce a movie to promote eco-tourism. We were struck deeply by the richness of the biodiversity and the culture on the one hand, and the deep economic poverty on the other. We had to find a way to build economic prosperity with them.
Please explain how your selected topic areas are influenced, in the local context of your project (1,000 characters).The community of Sungai Utik, is so exceptional because it has successfully managed to protect some 9600 hectares of community rainforest. In 2015 - The Indonesian Nature Film Society (INFIS) - who supported GreenIndonesia to make the movie https://youtu.be/_eyL1txmdbU - in 2013; produced the following movie which explains how the Sungai Utik community plays a very important role in providing hope that we can address climate change issues. The movie is tittled HOPE: Indigenous Climate Change Solutions in Indonesia. The link is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUSm466Mcz0&feature=youtu.be.
Who will work alongside your organization in the project idea? (1,000 characters)We will work with the entire community. Finding them resources to help develope a facility to process forest fruits, nuts and palm sugar potential; to then help take these to the market in an empowered way, is a promise we have given them since early 2015. The document attached above "Building Blocks for an Abundant Economy" describes our work with the community in 2015-2016. Primarily to develop various income streams with local culture and biodiversity assets. In January of 2015, The Sungai Utik Village Head, Raymundus Remang participated in our exhibition to promote eco-culture tours to their village in Oslo, Norway. Link: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-environment-indonesia/indonesian-indigenous-groups-look-to-tourists-to-protect-forests-idUSKBN0KI1QZ201501. Throughout 2017 because of limited financial resources, we have only been able to assist the village to further develop proposals to find support to build a forest fruit processing facility, etc.
Please share some of the top strengths identified in the community which your project will serve (500 characters)The Sungai Utik community continues to practice strong stewardship of nature. Their culture deeply connected with the rainforest. Their entho-botanical knowledge is superb. This knowledge combined with the wonderfully intact forest, contains the potential for a large range of exotic rainforest food products. The community is very open to new technologies and markets. Furthermore all generations, the elders, the adults and youth are all in good partnership relations with Sekar Kawung Foundation.
Geographic FocusThe project is in West Kalimantan - the Indonesian side of the Borneo Island.
How many months are required for the project idea? (500 characters)36 Moths: 6 months to revisit plans and further develop and refine implementation work-plans with the Sungai Utik community. 24 months, construction, and product development. 6 months marketing, monitoring, evaluation and improving practice.
Did you submit this idea to our 2017 BridgeBuilder Challenge? (Y/N)

The first concert of the Headfunkers after years of break. Let's go back to the classic trio set-up:
Luca "Duke" Lindemann: electric bass
Gianluca DiNoia: keyboards
Andrea Maltese: drums
I have been pursuing, since 1985, the dream of leaving something musical in the world. I have been playing the electric bass and not only with the sole purpose of producing quality music and exactly the mirror of what I am.
The music is continuous research and evolution, but the distinguishing matrix will always be, in my case, the funk or, as I have renamed it, the Cosmic Funk.
Good listening!

The Toyota Innova is an MPV, a sub-category of the SUV, based on the IMV platform, shared with the Toyota Fortuner and Toyota Hilux. Sporting 7 seats and a softer suspension than its IMV cousins, it has become popular with families in Asia. It comes with either a turbo diesel inline four or a gasoline inline four engine; 2.8L and 2.4L for the diesel variants, 2.0 ad 2.7 for the gasoline variants. Transmission may be a 6-speed automatic, or a 5-speed manual transmission. Despite being based on the same platform as the Fortuner and Hilux, it is not designed as an offroader; it doesn't come with 4-wheel-drive or a limited slip differential. It being designed by Toyota, the Innova is very reliable whether it is used as a family mover, a daily commuter, even a rental or a cab. It is definitely designed towards families and is the best of its class here in the Philippines.
The Innova is only a little bit smaller than the Toyota Fortuner, a mid-size SUV, thus there is plenty of space for the occupants. The Innova is readily available in a lot car rental companies as it is a very popular vehicle. There is plenty of leg room for the occupants of this vehicle. With the front seats on a reasonable position, the second row has plenty of room, even more room than a lot of SUVs, even when the second rows seats are moved all the way forward to give room to the 3rd row passengers. The third row is a little small for adults over 5ft, but moving the 2nd row forward gives the 3rd a generous amount of leg room. Head room great for all 3 rows, and has plenty in terms of width. The Innova is also comfortable. As stated before, it has a softer suspension than the Fortuner and a lot of other SUVs. The newer models have double wishbone type suspension in front, allowing more movement of the wheels, and less on the passengers. The Innova offers two vents for the second row and another two vents for the third row, insuring that all the occupants are comfortable with the temperature. Some models come with captain seats, which remove a seat in exchange for a pair of more prestigious seats. The third row can seat three people comfortably and leaves plenty of space for luggage. There is an option to fold the 3rd row making it a 5-seater with a large cargo area, and folding the 2nd row makes way for even more cargo. Renting a car with a driver would be a great way to enjoy the Innova.
Toyota innova is the best MPV/AUV vehicle in the Philippines. With the Innova, you are provided with generous space while having the luxury of comfort. Toyota innova has enough luggage space to accommodate your family's luggages and built tough to give you the right confidence while maintains its soft and comfortable ride.
Toyota innova is a multipurpose, versatile vehicle and is one of the favorites in car rental (rent-a-car) companies business. Rent-a-car companies like Real Wheels Davao choose Toyota Innova due to its reliabiliy, comfort and space that could serve well their guests.
Toyota innova is offered for selfDrive and with driver option by the car rental company. SelfDrive rental is limited within Davao City areas only. Adjacent cities are considered for long term rentals. With driver option rental is offered in convenient and flexible options. Fuel and Driver's meals/accommodation is flexible and can be discussed openly.

Avail A Tanzania Luxury Safari And Enjoy To The Core
Posted: Nov 30, 2013
You must be aware of the fact that when it comes to safari, Tanzania ranks the first. In fact, there are many people that come for a safari to this part of the world for a wonderful and enthralling experience. If you are interested, you can also plan a Tanzania luxury safari. This might cost you slightly more, but you can be absolutely certain that the experience you gather will be worth the value of your money. You can stay in the safari camps, and can visit the national parks by small air craft. Special arrangements are there, so that you can experience wildlife at its best.
Safari In The Southern Part:
You can plan out a safari in three different parts of Tanzania. You might not be able to carry out the safari in all the parts all at once. However, if you have to make a choice you can select the southern part. The parks that are located in southern Tanzania actually cover huge areas. Moreover, you can also enjoy great game viewing experiences. It is no doubt an excellent experience that will be quite similar to the safaris in the southern parts of Africa. This is something that you should not miss out at any cost.
An Experience To Cherish:
You can obviously plan out a southern Tanzania safari with your family and friends. The experience that you get will be something to cherish. There are absolutely no crowds, and therefore you will get the real feeling of wildness in this part of Tanzanian safari. Some of the common places that you can visit include Ruaha National Park, Selous Game Reserve, Mikumi and Udzungwa national parks. Make sure that you make opportunities to visit these points that will indeed give you a lifetime and memorable experience like never before.
On the other hand, if you are in western part of Tanzania, you can go for Safari from Dar es Salaam. It is the largest city in Tanzania. Starting a safari trip from this city can be wonderful, because you will get lots of facilities and amenities here. It is also one of the most beautiful cities of Africa due to which you will also get an opportunity to watch out this beautiful city. It is also a vibrant corner of modern Africa. You can start and end your safari trip at this beautiful city and take a flight back to your homeland.
safaris-intanzania.com - Experienced Safari from Dar es Salaam and it was indeed a wonderful experience. Thus, I recommend everyone to go for experiencing this safari.

|On Happiness
|Written by In the document
|Published: November 04 2018
Happiness. This word was already there when realized. Maybe this is expressing the state of mind that people seek for eventually in life. It is not something that is shaped from the outside but it is something that can only be felt as an internal experience in people's soul. Three artists who are involved in this exhibition have been searching for their own 'beauty' individually. Their each 'beauty' can only be searched and tried through their individual art works, and it depends on each perceiver's subjectivity whether he or she will actually find 'beauty' in the results. 'Happiness' and 'beauty', these two words have something in common. They both express the universal value that everyone seeks for. Yet they also do not have just one answer everyone can agree to. These may be true, however, we may well find each person's 'happiness' and each person's 'beauty' actually living together in harmony though they are all different individually. This is how this exhibition is titled 'On Happiness'.http://galleryk.la.coocan.jp

As an energy-intensive mainstream product, residential refrigerators present a significant
opportunity to reduce electricity consumption through energy efficiency improvements.
Refrigerators expend a considerable amount of electricity during normal use, typically
consuming between 100 to 1,000 kWh of electricity per annum. This paper presents the results of
a technical analysis done for refrigerators in support of the Super-efficient Equipment and
Appliance Deployment (SEAD) initiative. Beginning from a "base case" representative of the
average unit sold in India, we analyze efficiency improvement options and their corresponding
costs to build a cost-versus-efficiency relationship. We then consider design improvement
options that are known to be the most cost effective and that can improve efficiency given
current design configurations. We also analyze and present additional "super-efficient" options,
such as vacuum-insulated panels. We estimate the cost of conserved electricity for the various
options, allowing flexible program design for market transformation programs toward higher
efficiency. We estimate ~160TWh/year of energy savings are cost effective in 2030, indicating
significant potential for efficiency improvement in refrigerators in SEAD economies and China.
As energy-intensive mainstream products, residential refrigerators offer a significant opportunity to reduce electricity consumption through energy-efficiency improvements. This paper presents the results of a preliminary techno-economic analysis of refrigerator energy efficiency for South Africa. The analysis considers design options that can improve the efficiency of current refrigerator configurations. We then describe incentive program options for accelerating adoption of more-efficient refrigerators and associated energy savings. Based on the findings and on international experience with program designs, we briefly discuss possible program options to accelerate the market penetration of more efficient refrigerators. Finally, we point out that local data and stakeholder participation will be essential to refine and validate the analysis presented here and to develop a program that is best suited to the market conditions and barriers in South Africa.1 ade la Rue du Can, Stephane1 aLetschert, Virginie, E.1 aShah, Nihar1 aLeventis, Greg1 aCovary, Theo1 aWaide, Paul uhttps://energyanalysis.lbl.gov/publications/energy-efficient-refrigerators

Teeth bleaching is a way of chemically lightening the color of your teeth. The most common tooth bleaching agent used to whiten teeth is peroxide. Yes, that's the same thing "bottle blondes" use to bleach their hair! But peroxide comes in different chemical forms, and you can bet the kind you put on your teeth isn't quite the same as the kind you might use to lighten your hair.
Carbamide peroxide is the teeth whitening agent used in most commercial teeth whitener products. Laser teeth whitening at the dentist's office, on the other hand, uses the stronger teeth whitening agent, hydrogen peroxide. By law, dentists can use and prescribe more concentrated teeth bleaching agents than can be used in over-the-counter teeth whiteners.
While professional teeth whitening is the fastest route to white teeth, it's also more expensive than using the carbamide peroxide whiteners that are available at grocery stores and pharmacies. Since these products have lower levels of peroxide in them, it takes longer to bleach teeth effectively. However, carbamide peroxide is safer for you to use at home. It's just not safe to use a stronger bleaching agent without a dentist's supervision; you could inadvertently damage your teeth or gums.
Lots of tooth whiteners contain carbamide peroxide. Whitening toothpaste and whitening strips are some of the most popular options, but they're not the only ones. You can get a bleaching paste that you wear in bleaching trays over your teeth. You can get bleaching gel that you paint onto your teeth. Or you can go to your dentist for instant whitening -- it all depends on how fast you want a new bright smile!
White teeth are always in style. Unfortunately, our teeth naturally darken as we get older. Smoking and coffee can lead to yellow teeth. Over time, the bright smile of youth may fade.
That's where teeth whitening comes to the rescue! A smile makeover can improve self-confidence and give you a new lease on life. It doesn't have to be an extreme dental makeover that costs tens of thousands of dollars and takes months to complete. Instant whitening can be done in your dentist's office in about an hour.
Laser whitening uses a dental laser to activate the bleach the dentist applies to your teeth. You can also get professional teeth whitening that uses a strong teeth whitener without laser light. Your teeth can be lightened by a number of shades in a single appointment. If you have stubborn deep-down stains on your teeth, you may need more than one teeth bleaching session to get the whitest teeth possible.
You can also whiten your teeth at home. Your dentist can give you a tooth whitening kit that will give you a brighter smile in a matter of weeks. Or you can buy tooth whiteners at the store; though they're not as strong as what your dentist can provide, they can help you maintain whiter teeth after teeth whitening treatment.

"How much more natural, I say, that … these ships should not only interchange hails, but come into still closer, more friendly and sociable contact. And especially would this seem to be a matter of course, in the case of vessels owned in one seaport, and whose captains, officers, and not a few of the men are personally known to each other; and consequently, have all sorts of dear domestic things to talk about. For the long absent ship, the outward-bounder, perhaps, has letters on board… And in return for that courtesy, the outward-bound ship would receive the latest whaling intelligence from the cruising-ground to which she may be destined, a thing of the utmost importance to her."
~Herman Melville, Moby Dick, "The Gam"
It was two days later that I heard my first cry of "sail ho!" from the mast-top. I wasn't sure whether I should be surprised that we hadn't yet encountered any other ships, or whether I should be amazed that any two ships ever crossed paths on this seemingly endless expanse of water. Even more amazing to think they might know each other.
But know each other they did.
Obadiah had his telescope trained on her from the moment the lookout called out, ensuring that she wasn't armed or unfriendly. An unknown gunship out here would get a wide berth. But no—he quickly ascertained that the approaching vessel bore arms like ours: harpoons and lances.
"I'll be damned," he muttered, and I wasn't sure if he were talking to me (hovering at his elbow and hoping for a turn with the scope) or to himself. "It's Blue Mary." He squinted through the glass for several more minutes as if to confirm his ID, or to assess her condition, before handing me the brass cylinder and flagging down the older cabin boy, Peter Coffin.
"Haul up the mail bag, boy—we'll be having a gam. Mr. Dickson, fall off two points—hold a course to intersect."
"Is she from New Bedford?" I asked him, trying to keep my circle of view trained on the tiny ship on its bouncing horizon. It's harder than you'd think to look through a telescope at sea. "Do you know her captain?"
"She is, and I do. She's been out nearly four years, and little enough heard from her. Maybe not surprising—her captain is a lonesome sort, not given to gamming for the mere sake of mail. You'll notice he's not changed his course, though they'll have seen us by now. We don't have any news he needs."
"Will he stop, then?"
"Aye, he'll heave to in the end. He'll just make me come to him."
I bristled at that, offended on Obadiah's behalf. "He can't possibly have mail for us—is he worth the trouble if he's so unsociable?"
"Oh aye. he'll have news of the whaling grounds. And he's my brother." I gaped at him in surprise, torn between laughing and rolling my eyes. Maybe it's my only-child wistfulness, but I can't help but think that if I did have a sister, and if I did happen to randomly cross paths with her in the middle of a huge ocean, that the staggering coincidence would be the first thing out of my mouth, before her ship's name, her social habits, and her usefulness.
The Blue Mary did eventually shift her course slightly, looking resigned and reluctant to my eyes, but that was probably just Obadiah's commentary working on my perceptions. I wondered if her change of course were a concession to familial relations—by his own account he hadn't seen his brother on land for a long count of years, though he said they'd "gammed" once on the Pacific whaling grounds.
Perhaps the coincidence was less staggering than it seemed. The ocean may not have literal roads, but the Nantucket and New Bedford whalers did share common courses across her surface, like this run between New England and the Azores.
I assumed, given the other Starbuck's unsociable leanings, that we'd be making the whaleboat-jaunt over to his rig, but before the Blue Mary even hove to, we could see the small craft lowering down her starboard side from the davits.
"Is he coming over to us?"
"Aye, he prefers it that way. He can leave when he wants, instead of chasing a chatty chief off his own deck." He looked me over and sighed. "May I at least introduce a woman to my brother?" Privately noting that his request signaled some resignation to my trousers as daily wear, I sketched a playful curtsey, spreading imaginary skirts, and took myself off to make a quick change. I didn't want to miss anything, so it was a thrown-together hybrid outfit at best. I pulled petticoat and skirt right over the trousers, tucking in the sailor's shirt I already wore, and added Obadiah's shawl for good measure. With one of Mrs. Vanderhagen's blue neckerchiefs tied around my hair headband-fashion, I scrambled back up the hatch with as much alacrity as I could manage amidst all the hindering fabric.
I couldn't say what I'd expected, but this man wasn't it. A full foot shorter than his brother, Micah Starbuck was clearly a dandy. Here he was at the end of a many-years' whaling voyage, wearing a clean white shirt with ruffles at the front and wrists. In calf-high black leather boots snug-fitting breeches, and several gold earrings, he would have looked more in place on the set of a swashbuckling movie-set than he did among the plain togs of our crew. I thought he'd missed his pirate-calling, perhaps missed his century. I also thought he'd probably brought more trunks of clothes than I had. He wore his dark hair slicked back (with whale oil, I guessed) and his swagger had little to do with the movement of the deck. In another century I would have expected a gold Rolex and a mafia Jersey accent.
I wondered what sort of greeting I had missed. Judging from the nearly tangible testosterone in the air, it might well have been forehead-butting.
"May I present my wife?"
I stepped forward holding out my hand, forgetting that women don't shake hands, but Micah covered my gaffe by kissing it with a flourish.
"Well met, good-sister. I never thought to see my brother marry, and here I find him setting up house aboard his ship." He looked at me appraisingly, and I found myself glad after all that I'd changed my clothes. To someone who so clearly valued appearance, I no doubt came up wanting, even in skirts—but at least the Mary's boatmen wouldn't be carrying tales back to New Bedford of a captain's boy-wife in trousers. I suddenly appreciated some of the weight of Obadiah's reliance on proprieties—he could lose effectiveness if he became an object of ridicule among seamen.
I didn't really have an answer for Micah's comment, but I wasn't a main party to this meeting anyway. Obadiah dove right into questions about oil barrels and successes and trends on specific whaling grounds, maybe wanting to wring as much information as possible out of his brother before the bantam took it into his head to go abruptly haring off.
My attention focused on Peter with the mail bag, pawing through the various paper packets for anything with the "address" of Blue Mary. Several changed hands, Micah's first mate collecting them to pass out to their intended recipients. One he shook his head over—"Lost him to yellow fever"—but he took the proffered letter nonetheless, perhaps to return to its sender. Several of our men brought forth letters of their own for the homebound ship. The mate shook his head over those as well. "You sending letters already, you either green or newly married," he commented to Campbell the cooper—an apt observation, as Campbell was both.
Between the captains, Micah clearly held the trump cards of information, but among the men our crew had the monopoly. Mary's men were eager for news of home and wives and families and town. If women gossip like hens, I want to know what gossips like a sailor at a gam. Hens have nothing on these guys. And it wasn't all benign—one of Micah's rowers was glowering at the news of a toddler at home. I wondered at his reaction until I remembered Obadiah saying they'd been out for four years. Our Coffin cabin boy, proud of his newly-minted "seaman" status, preened under the attention of an amused older cousin from the other ship, while Jimmy sulked nearby with no one to admire him. Watching the lively exchanges among the mingling men, I wondered about the majority left behind on Micah's ship. His larger vessel held more whaleboats and more men than ours, and I wondered idly how these six got the lucky winning tickets to accompany him to the social event of the gam.
Almost before I knew it, a sharp command from the captains' direction brought the visitors up short in their story-telling of whale encounters. They jumped for the rail without even wrapping up, and moments later the blue-painted whaleboat was shooting across the mild waves to the matching hull of its mother ship. Micah had taken no leave of me—I noted the lack of social grace but didn't feel like I'd missed much. Before the smaller craft had even reached the Mary, her bow turned away from ours, her canvas billowed, and she began to move off, picking up speed even as the rowers raced toward her. I didn't understand why she wouldn't have waited for the boat to reach her first, but Obadiah growled, "Now he's just showing off."
"Showing off what, exactly?"
"That he's got a crack crew of experienced hands. He knows I don't have the crew experience or cohesion yet, and he's rubbing it in." We'd just seen the whaling version of peeling out in a showy convertible. "I'm just surprised they didn't dance her in a circle around us while he talked—that would be just about his style."
"Well, if it's any consolation," I told him, "I don't think much of your brother's style. Maybe they could have come home sooner if he used less of the whale oil on his hair."

text: Description Usage Supplement Facts Of the tens of thousands of molecules that make up the life of a cell, Phosphatidylcholine (PC) stands apart; probably the most important one of all. BodyBio PC is made of only pure phospholipids which automatically form liposomes in the watery environment of the body, but it goes one important step further… it is also formulated with the essential lipids at a 4:1 ratio. Most PC currently available has an EFA ratio of ~12:1. BodyBio PC not only has a higher concentration of phospholipids, up to 66%, but also maintains EFA concentration at the preferred 4:1 ratio, a BodyBio exclusive. BodyBio PC is a special, highly concentrated mixture of phospholipids with the highest one being Phosphatidylcholine. The key fact is that PC declines with age and disease. What are the exact ingredients in BodyBio PC? Phosphatidylcholine, Phosphatidylethanolamine (minor phospholipids & glycolipids), 4:1 essential fatty acids, and ethanol. Why is Ethanol in BodyBio PC? Ethanol is used to extract the phospholipids from the soy concentrate. The ethanol is then removed by vacuum distillation; however there is a small amount that is left ~ 2% What is a Phospholipid? Chemically speaking, phospholipids are the active component in lecithin. Compared to a typical fat or triglyceride ("Tri" meaning three fatty acids attached) phospholipids contain two fatty acids and in place of the third fatty acid they have a phosphorous containing head group. A phospholipid is unique because its tail likes oil and its head group likes water. When a phospholipid comes in contact with water, it spontaneously forms a "bi-layer structure". The bi-layer functions as the "skin" or "membrane" of living cells and organelles. Another crucial component of a phospholipid is the type of fatty acids attached to it. A phospholipid such as soy-derived polyenylphosphatidylcholine is rich in linoleic and linolenic acids, polyunsaturated fatty acids that provide "fluidity" to the cell membrane. Maintaining membrane fluidity is vital, as the membrane is crucial to the majority of cellular activities. BodyBio PC is formulated with those important essential oils, the omega 6 and the omega 3's at a 4:1 ratio. 4 parts of omega 6 from soybean oil and 1 part of omega 3 from flax oil. What is BodyBio PC most commonly used for? BodyBio PC rebuilds the membrane and increases fluidity, which is synonymous with saying that PC is life itself. What is BodyBio PC most commonly used for? BodyBio PC rebuilds the membrane and increases fluidity, which is synonymous with saying that PC is life itself. If I am allergic to Soy can I take BodyBio PC? Soybeans are known as an allergenic food. Its allergens are found in the protein fraction and is removed in the Lecithin manufacturing process. Lecithin does contain trace levels of soy proteins and these have been found to include soy allergens. However, many allergists believe that Lecithin does not contain sufficient soy protein residues to provoke allergic reactions in the majority of soy-allergic consumers. BodyBio PC requires additional processing of the Lecithin material to arrive at a high concentration of phospholipids, providing a quality PC.

Greater Hume Council seeks to reconvene planning committee with Albury counterparts on walk/cycle path connecting townships
A walking and cycling path connecting Lavington and Jindera is a possibility again, as Greater Hume councillors seek to reconvene a working committee with their Albury counterparts.
At the request of Cr Denise Knight, Greater Hume has committed to re-establishing a planning group disbanded in 2012, "with the aim of preparing a feasibility study and plans for a shovel-ready project".
At Wednesday's council meeting, Cr Knight had the folder of documents belonging to the previous committee.
"It predominately contains some of the correspondence back and forward, and a quite considerable petition taken up probably three years ago," she said.
Following local government elections in 2012, councillors passed a motion to abandon the planning, being of the opinion the resources could be put to better use.
Greater Hume general manager Steven Pinnuck said the other issue in 2012 was that at the time, Albury Council "was concentrating on tracks around the Murray River".
"They're perhaps keen to have a look at it now," he said.
"They believe they probably have the resources in-house to at least do a feasibility study."
The Albury leg would be the most complicated of the two sections.
Previous proposals had the path joining up to the Bungambrawatha Creek Trail in Albury and following Urana Road to Jindera.
Cr Jenny O'Neill was a member of the joint committee.
"They realised it probably wasn't going to happen unless there was external funding, but the committee was happy to continue along the way it was," she said.
Cr Knight said there was "quite a bit of interest" in the project.
"Justin Clancy is quite interested in this and has spoken to Albury (council) about it," she said.
In a statement, Albury mayor Kevin Mack said his council looked forward to receiving further information "to help us assess this proposal".
"We're keen to support improvements to our bike and pedestrian network and welcome the request from Greater Hume Shire to further consider the feasibility of this link," he said.

The Mirage Hotel & Casino in Vegas is doing an awesome job keeping their online presence top-of-mind for guests (and potential guests).
First, they have a "Socialize" page on their website specifically outlining all their social media platforms.
QR Codes
They've also begun getting into QR codes this year. their best campaign right now is their $3 off admission to Siegfried & Roy's Secret Garden & Dolphin Habitat by scanning the code displayed on busses, taxis, online and other mediums which brings the user to a landing page. All they have to do is show this page to the ticket booth when purchasing their tickets.
Facebook Promotions
There are several promotions being pushed via their social media channels right now, including their Rodney Carrington VIP Comedy Package that includes airfare and all sorts of VIP treatment. It's only been up two weeks and has garnered about 3,000 entries, which is one of their best responses to a social contest to-date. Since Facebook policy states that no contest/promotion/sweepstakes can be entered via liking, commenting, or posting a picture/post, the hotel's going through a third-party app which has guests enter all their data and specifically notifies them that they're entering a contest. They opted to use ShortStack Lab as their third-party and are loving the company and its product as a whole.
Kudos to Mirage for their awesome pro-active approach!
Keep in touch with the hotel on Twitter and Facebook.

Virat Kohli's effort goes in vain as England win first Test2 min read . Updated: 04 Aug 2018, 07:03 PM IST
Despite Virat Kohli's 200 runs, England won a topsy-turvy first Test by 31 runs at Edgbaston to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match series
Despite Virat Kohli's 200 runs, England won a topsy-turvy first Test by 31 runs at Edgbaston to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match series
New Delhi: England have drawn the first blood with a 31-run win over India at Edgbaston to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match Test series.
The match was delicately poised at the start of the fourth day. India needed 84 runs with five wickets in hand. Virat Kohli was holding fort on 43 and seemed to be the biggest hurdle for the hosts as they looked to start the series on a winning note.
James Anderson enticed an edge from Dinesh Karthik to put England in front before Hardik Pandya and Kohli looked to take India close to the target. Pandya hit a flurry of boundaries to ease the Indian nerves but Ben Stokes got rid of the Indian captain with his second delivery of the day. Mohammed Shami's dismissal in the same over put England firmly in the driver's seat.
Stokes eventually claimed Pandya's wicket to hand England the win in what proved to be a compelling Test match.
Sam Curran, playing his second Test, was the Man of the Match for his five wickets and the decisive 63 he scored in England's second innings to put them back in the game.
Stokes was all praise for the young all-rounder. "I thought we are a bit behind with the lead but Sam Curran took them out of play," he said. "The way that he played at such a young age, that was the big turning point of this Test match."
England captain Joe Rot lavished praise on his bowlers for swinging the match in their favour.
"Last night, [India's] opening spell could have really been the difference, but the boys didn't let me down at all," the England captain told BBC Test Match Special. "We missed a few chances but we didn't feel sorry for ourselves and that's a great sign for us going forward."
"[The series] is set up beautifully. It is a great advert for the game and for Test match cricket", he added.
Indian skipper Kohli, who scored an outstanding knock of 149 in the first innings and added another 51 in the second, added: "It was a great game of cricket and I was glad to be involved in such a fantastic Test match. We showed character at times but England were relentless in the areas they hit. We could definitely have applied ourselves better with the bat but I'm proud of the fight we showed.
"It sets up the series. There is no hiding from this game. We have to play positive and fearless."
The second Test will start on 9 August at Lord's.

My husband is a "dog person" and I am a "cat person" but both of us AGREE that a garden must be a safe place for pets & yet be ATTRACTIVE. A dog run can be created behind a latticework fence, so it is not a smelly eyesore. Citrus and mint plants can be planted around areas they are not supposed to go, so your flowers are not trampled; cats also dislike those scents. Hardscape should have smooth flagstones, not chipped rock, so it will not hurt their paws. They need a place to rest in the sun and a place to get away from the sun when it is too intense. Since they love to mark their territory, give them a few pieces of driftwood upon which to do so. If you plant shrubbery closely your pets will stay out; consider this for areas around a vegetable garden. Thorny and spiny plants can cause eye injuries, so plan your garden so these are not used as edgers, but are surrounded by other plants, if you use them at all. Marigolds, peppermint and lavender repel mosquitoes and fleas, so plant them liberally. Marigolds, as I've stated in an earlier post, also repel snakes. Lemon Balm does the same, but it should be put in its own pot on your deck, for it can become an invasive plant that takes over the garden. Echinacea has a pretty daisy head, and if your dog or cat chews its leaves, it will boost their immune system. Avoid daffodils, elephants ears and yew which are all highly toxic to dogs, along with jade plants and aloe vera! Agility play equipment should be out in the yard; this is what will entertain your pet instead of digging up your garden. Some of the most common equipment is a high jump, a hoop through which they can jump, a plank to walk, a pet house, a tunnel to climb through, platforms to jump up to and off of, and hurdles to bound over. If you PLAN your backyard to include a PLACE for your pets to play, they will become disinterested in the areas you have intended for yourself, your spouse and your children. [Boomer & George sells the dog houses shown; I think they are adorable. The platforms are elevated, so your pet stays high and dry regardless of the weather.]

Research Focus
My research focuses on distinct areas of behavioral and developmental neuroendocrinology. I have been examining the impact of steroid hormones on the central nervous system for several years, more specifically the effects of androgens on brain structure and behavior during the pubertal period. During my training, I expanded this research focus to include the examination of sex steroid receptor expression in postmortem human brain, and the effects of sex steroid receptor genotype on brain structure. My long-term goal is to move beyond the examination of steroid hormones in isolation and to focus my efforts on integrating the examination of steroid hormones with that of steroid receptor expression, neurotransmitter function, and clinically significant phenotypes such as premenstrual dysphoric disorder, postpartum depression and perimenopausal-related mood as well as anxiety disorders.
