State of Attire
Saitou doesn't care at all if Sano spends the night with someone else. Really.
Saitou had just risen from a full night of unbroken sleep when noisy footsteps sounded in his entry hall. They were familiar footsteps (though when Sano had acquired the means to let himself into the house Saitou wasn't sure), so he merely continued with his preparations for the day. Having become accustomed, lately, to half nights of less perfect repose, snores and sprawling limbs, the unexpectedly smooth period of rest had left him slightly less alert than usual upon awakening; he was, in fact, splashing cold water onto his face as the bedroom door opened.
It seemed like Sano stood in the doorway, and Saitou stood staring at him, for a very long time.
With the appearance of the tired, slightly grinning, very rumpled young man with clothes and hair in great disarray, there came also the faint smell of flowery perfume; it floated into and seemed to permeate the room in a single instant: a clinging, distinctly feminine scent that might have been considered an olfactory representation of the pinkish color smeared faintly in places on Sano's face and neck.
It seemed like Sano stood in the doorway, and Saitou stood staring at him, for a very long time, but it actually took only half a moment for the story of the night to be told — half a moment's dismay and resentment of which Saitou had no real desire to make a great display — before he returned without a word to the task of getting dressed.
He should have known better. This was Sagara Sanosuke, after all. He had known better: he'd always known the young man for an impetuous idiot and a good-for-nothing. However, he wouldn't have guessed even a clearly intoxicated Sano would have the nerve to show up here smelling like the woman he'd spent the night with.
After not too long, he heard footsteps behind him and felt the delinquent's arms slip around his waist to stop his progress in fastening his pants. "Do you really wanna put those on?" Sano wondered in a rumbling slur, drunken hands attempting clumsily to enter the garment in question.
Saitou pushed him roughly away, marveling at this shamelessness. "It would be inconvenient to go to work without them."
The moron could sleep with whomever he wanted, of course, and be as reckless and indiscreet about it as he chose, of course. When had anyone implied anything else? Since when did Saitou want anything else? Why should Saitou want anything else?
Obviously not even a little put off, Sano asked, "Well, do you really wanna go to work?"
"In case you didn't notice as you stumbled over here, ahou," Saitou snorted, "the sun is coming up. Those of us who don't waste our lives gambling and whoring have things to do."
For once, he had to admit, his irritation with Sano was not as great as his irritation with himself: that Sano hadn't even bothered to wipe the lip-color off his neck was brazen or perhaps just careless, but either way seemed typical of him; that Saitou reacted to it like this was more than a little atypically foolish… when had he starting thinking of their convenient-sex arrangement in relationship terms?
Sano was frowning in bleary disappointment. Evidently the 'whoring' comment hadn't made even the slightest impression. Of course not; why should it have? "Guess I'll just take a nap, then." And he flopped down onto the futon Saitou had yet to put away.
"I don't want you in my bed smelling like you've been rolling in a gardenia bush all night," Saitou said coldly. Or rolling some cheap woman in a gardenia bush all night.
Sano buried his face in his sleeve and inhaled loudly. "Damn whore was wearing a fucking gallon of that shit," was his muffled comment. Then, with a yawn but not even a touch of compunction, he rearranged the blanket around himself, put his hands behind his head, and looked blandly up at Saitou.
As he finished buttoning his shirt and donned his jacket with movements that might perhaps have been a little more forceful than was entirely necessary, the officer considered tossing the thoughtless young man out on his ear, telling him to go back to aforementioned whore if he wanted to freeload. It would certainly be the appropriate treatment.
But for some reason he didn't.
"Chou had better be on time today," he was growling to himself as he put out the lamp and turned to leave.
"I doubt it," came Sano's faint, unexpected, and uncalled-for reply, "if he shows up at all…"
Saitou paused in the doorway and turned to look back at the groggy ahou. "Why?"
"He took that stupid woman home…" the younger man answered sleepily. "Broke up a really good game, too, horny bastard." He yawned again before adding, "Well, least it stopped her getting all over me." Turning onto his side and tugging on the bedding so all Saitou could see of him was a blanket-covered lump ending in a jagged brown mass, he finished at a mumble, "Some chicks just won't take 'I have a boyfriend' for an answer."
Heavy seconds passed as Saitou stared, wordless and motionless, down at Sano. Presently the latter began to snore.
So Chou wasn't likely to show up at all today, was he? That meant Saitou had to run his own errands. He hated running his own errands when there were more important things to be done; perhaps, he thought as he started to remove his jacket, having Chou at his beck and call had spoiled him. Unbuttoning his shirt, he reflected that Chou was hardly competent enough to merit that distinction. By the time he got his pants off, Chou had entirely fled his mind.
Working his way under the blanket in which Sano had twisted himself was no easy task, but, once he'd gotten there and wrapped his arms around the young man, he was rewarded with an incoherent but affectionate-sounding mutter and a sigh as Sano's body squirmed slowly to fit against his.
"Next time tell her you have an extremely jealous boyfriend," he murmured, and pressed a kiss to the spiky head. In doing so he caught a stronger whiff of the omnipresent flowery scent, and had to reflect that, on his Sano, it actually smelled quite nice.
This story, which I've rated , was for 30_kisses theme #11 "Gardenia."

Last Day, Last Bridges
We only had time to see two bridges on our way to Philly today. I'd hoped to hit three (or five...) but travel time was just too long. Good thing we didn't push it - the iPad navigation app I've been using got us totally lost in Northern Philadelphia, not an experience I care to repeat.
By the time we got to the rental car office, we were within minutes of being late rather than the hour early I'd planned. (Anybody have a navigation/map app they like? I don't like Google Maps either . . .)
First up, Zimmerman Bridge in Pine Grove, built in 1880.
This was supposed to be a Howe truss (like this example) . . .
but it's another Burr arch truss.
Oh well, still interesting.
A little way down the road was Rock Bridge, built in 1870.
Supposed to be a Howe truss,
actually was a - say it with me - Burr truss. Mr. Burr sure got around.
Links to helpful websites are below, mainly so I can find them the next time we go bridge hunting.
Bridgehunter.com - a database of historic or notable bridges in the United States, past and present.
CoveredBridgeMap.com - bridges listed and mapped by state. Good way to find the address of a specific bridge.
Covered Bridge Trusses - diagrams and descriptions of most common trusses.
Theodore Burr Covered Bridge Society - more detailed information on truss designs.

The staff and I are off today to be with friends and family, but I wanted to take some time this morning to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving—whether you're celebrating here in the States or checking in from around the globe.
From a personal point of view, I like beginning the holiday season with a time for thankfulness. The end of the year calls us to take stock, and it's illuminating (and humbling) to do it in a spirit of gratitude.
I'm thankful for my wonderful family and supportive friends and colleagues. They know it, so I won't linger.
I'm also grateful for this amazing community—the engagement, encouragement, and challenge you all have offered me over the years. Mark's Daily Apple continues to be an evolving project. You are the engine of its evolution. My best ideas often come from satisfying a need one of you relay to me or my staff, and I've steered my blog, the books, events, products, and educational programs to reflect these ideas and to assist my readers. Thank you, everyone, and please continue to offer your feedback.
I hope you're enjoying yourself today and have much to be grateful for this year, including good Primal health. Be well, and have a great holiday weekend.
Cheers, Mark
The post Happy Thanksgiving appeared first on Mark's Daily Apple.

In one week, The Binds That Tie will be released. I'm chuckling because while this is Book One of my new Steel Door M/M BDSM Romance series, i wrote it after I wrote Book Two – If You Can't Take The Heat – which is part of Paige Tyler's Dallas Fire & Rescue Kindle World launch on October 13th.
This snippet takes up a few lines down from last week's post. Kalen speaks first.
When Kalen's warm, slightly calloused hand massaged his buttocks, he moaned. "Feel good, boy?"
"Yes, Sir."
The first smack was loud in the room and while it was hard, it didn't hurt necessarily. Joaquin relaxed a little. The second blow was about the same intensity and a little lower. Each fall of Kalen's hand fell with the crack of a bullet, but besides warmth slowly spreading across his ass, it didn't hurt and he enjoyed the feeling. Though he wasn't sure why it was called erotic. It didn't feel that way.
Until Kalen slid his fingers between Joaquin's cheeks and rubbed over his hole.
Published: 09/22/2016
A barista by day and a drag queen by night, Joaquin Emerald loves his careers. It's the rest of his life that bothers him. When he finds himself in danger, trapped with no way out, he is rescued by Dr. Kalen Moor.
When they run into one another again, this time at the BDSM club Steel Door, their attraction is intense, their passion is over the top, and their kinks are in alignment. From that moment, it's hard to stay away from one another. When Joaquin's past comes back to haunt him, he's afraid Kalen won't want him.
It might take going around the law, but Kalen is determined to save his boy, even if it means losing him in the process.

Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Lockitron.com collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Lockitron.com's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Lockitron.com's visitors use its website. From time to time, Lockitron.com may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Lockitron.com also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Lockitron.com does not use such information to identify its visitors, however, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below. Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Lockitron.com's websites choose to interact with Lockitron.com in ways that require Lockitron.com to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Lockitron.com gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who create a Lockitron.com account to provide a name and email address. In each case, Lockitron.com collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with Lockitron.com. Lockitron.com does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities such as creating a Lockitron.com account.
Aggregated Statistics
Lockitron.com may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, Lockitron.com may reveal how much traffic it received. However, Lockitron.com does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
Lockitron.com discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Lockitron.com's behalf or to provide services available at Lockitron.com's websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Lockitron.com's websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Lockitron.com will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations, as described above, Lockitron.com discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when Lockitron.com believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Lockitron.com, third parties, or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a Lockitron.com website and have supplied your email address, Lockitron.com may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what's going on with Lockitron.com and our products. We primarily use our blog and Twitter account to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Lockitron.com takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor's computer, and that the visitor's browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. Lockitron.com uses cookies to help Lockitron.com identify and track visitors, their usage of Lockitron.com website, and their website access preferences. Lockitron.com visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using Lockitron.com's websites, with the drawback that certain features of Lockitron.com's websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
Privacy Policy Changes
Although most changes are likely to be minor, Lockitron.com may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in Lockitron.com's sole discretion. Lockitron.com encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy.

Hello, I hope this is the correct place to be posting this question!
Recently, a group of friends and I began our first bout at Diplomacy! We created a group with a total of four players, and when the game began, I received an email from playdiplomacy.com saying I controlled two powers. I'm assuming that other players have been given similar benefits (with an unfortunate odd one out), but my specific question is in regards to how this affects play? Am I to assume two distinct roles of these powers? If so, is there a method messaging to others separately as these two distinct powers, or will all messages sent to either of the powers I control be able to be read and replied by me? When looking at the Public Press or Message tabs, it only identifies me as one power, but across from that it says "You are playing as A and B." It's a little confusing, especially for this being my first time!
If there are any resources that I can be directed to that address this problem, I would be most appreciative!

Their lead will probably be short-lived, however, because other placings include:
Warwickshire B 8/13
Yorkshire C 7½/8 (!)
Essex D 7/7 (!!)
Northumberland A 6/8
Lincolnshire 6/10
At the other end of the 20-team table are:
Warwickshire C ½/9
Worcestershire B 1/12
So far, Jim Buis, Bob Stephens and Bob Jones have won both their games, whilst top board Ian Wallis has drawn both of his. Phil Revell and Jakob Tulic each have one draw and the only loss incurred so far is on bottom board, with Jakob.   The unfinished games are by Silas Peck (2), Kevin Greenacre (2) and Phil Revell (1). We should get at least three draws, possibly more, from those games.
Last season, Suffolk finished with a total of 8 points (50%), so there's a very good chance that we will improve on that this season.

Woodward–Hoffmann rules
The Woodward–Hoffmann rules are a set of organic chemistry rules to predict the stereochemistry of pericyclic reactions. Pericyclic reactions are usually rearrangement reactions where the molecule is a ring (e.g. benzene ring).[1] They were written by Robert Burns Woodward (a chemistry professor at Harvard University) and Roald Hoffmann (a chemistry professor at Cornell University). Hoffmann was awarded the 1981 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for this work, shared with Kenichi Fukui who developed a similar model.[2] Woodward did not share the prize because he died two years before. Generally, the Nobel Prize is awarded only to living people. Woodward had already won a Nobel Prize in Chemistry for a different discovery.
A recent paper in the journal Nature describes how mechanical stress can be used to reshape chemical reaction pathways to lead to products that apparently violate Woodward–Hoffman rules.[3]

Back here, but now, the jobber John
Come by, an' cried, 'Well done, zing on,
I thought as I come down the hill,
An' heärd your zongs a-ringèn sh'ill,
Who woudden like to come, an' fling
A peäir o' prongs where you did zing?'
Aye, aye, he woudden vind it plaÿ,
To work all day a-meäkèn hay,
Or pitchèn o't, to eärms a-spread
By lwoaders, yards above his head,
'T'ud meäke en wipe his drippèn brow.
Or else a-reäkèn a'ter plow.
Or workèn, wi' his nimble pick,
A-stiffled wi' the hay, at rick.
Our Company would suit en best,
When we do teäke our bit o' rest,
At nunch, a-gather'd here below
The sheäde theäse wide-bough'd woak do drow,
Where hissèn froth mid rise, an' float
In horns o' eäle, to wet his droat.
Aye, if his swellèn han' could drag
A meat-slice vrom his dinner bag.
'T'ud meäke the busy little chap
Look rather glum, to zee his lap
Wi' all his meal ov woone dry crowst,
An' vinny cheese so dry as dowst.
Well, I dont grumble at my food,
'Tis wholesome, John, an' zoo 'tis good.
Whose reäke is that a-lyèn there?
Do look a bit the woo'se vor wear.
Oh! I mus' get the man to meäke
A tooth or two vor thik wold reäke,
'Tis leäbor lost to strike a stroke
Wi' him, wi' ha'f his teeth a-broke.
I should ha' thought your han' too fine
To break your reäke, if I broke mine.
The ramsclaws thin'd his wooden gum
O' two teeth here, an' here were zome
That broke off when I reäk'd a patch
O' groun' wi' Jimmy, vor a match:
An' here's a gap where woone or two
Wer broke by Simon's clumsy shoe,
An' when I gi'ed his poll a poke,
Vor better luck, another broke.
In what a veag have you a-swung
Your pick, though, John? His stem's a-sprung.
When I an' Simon had a het
O' pookèn, yonder, vor a bet,
The prongs o'n gi'd a tump a poke,
An' then I vound the stem o'n broke,
But they do meäke the stems o' picks
O' stuff so brittle as a kicks.
There's poor wold Jeäne, wi' wrinkled skin,
A-tellèn, wi' her peakèd chin,
Zome teäle ov her young days, poor soul.
Do meäke the young-woones smile. 'Tis droll.

Stiff as a road bike, suspended only when needed, without any remote control! this is the Onda Curve Asymmetric™!
Warning: Last items in stock!
Availability date:
The dream of every biker? it's obvious: to have a bike that dampens only if necessary. Until now, this was possible only by remote controls. Our rear quadrilateral Onda Curve Asymmetric™ changes all that because it is very firm on flat ground and it works only on uneven terrain. It is a unique combination of technologies. Most frames on the market today have about 6 points of rotation with bushings. This almost always takes place near the wheel or the bottom bracket. The sixth rotation point is always active, regardless of terrain, and therefore results in an inevitable weak point, a heavy point since there are bushings and screws, a point which requires constant maintenance and cleaning . All this no longer exists in Dogma XM, we have eliminated the weak point! Our rear stay Onda Curve Asymmetric™ has only 5 flex points, an extraordinary monocoque in which the kinematics functions thanks to its exclusive carbon flexible arm that makes the quadrilateral rigid on even grounds and flexible only on uneven grounds. You can easily imagine the benefits of this: a stiffer and more reactive bike, active and absorbing only if clearly needed. A cutting edge technology derived directly from the rocker arms of Formula One cars, special materials and a particular lay up of carbon that allow a precise and controlled flexion able to rotate our rear quadrilateral Onda Curve Asymmetric™ with extraordinary and infinite precision... just when you need it!

At some point or another, we've all tried to improve our diet, whether it was for health reasons, physical appearance, or both. We all aim to have that perfectly healthy lifestyle, but we often overlook the most complex organ in our body when considering what foods to eat. Our brain is in control not just of our thoughts and feelings, but breathing, heartbeat, senses, and much more. Increasingly more scientific research is showing that what we eat every day actually has a huge impact on our brain functions, affecting our moods, cravings, and overall mental health! The brain is always active, even when we are asleep, and requires a lot of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to stay well-nourished and happy. What are the best brain foods you ask? Well, here are 6 of the best foods for maintaining a healthy mind and body!
Hemp Seed & Oil
Our brains actually require cannabinoids, which regulate most of the primary functions in our body including alertness, memory function, emotions, inflammation and cancer defenses. We can produce some of our own cannabinoids but perform best when consuming more from foods like hemp. Hemp's nutritional composition of its oil and protein contain all of the essential amino acids our body needs and in a uniquely perfect ratio (3.5:1~4:1) with over 400 phytonutrients.
Shelled hemp seed contains 33% pure digestible protein and is rich in iron and vitamin E as well as omega-3 and GLA. A recent report funded by the Canadian government states that hemp protein is comprised of 66% high-quality edistin protein and that hemp seed contains the highest percentage of this from any plant source in the world. Hemp also contains 3x more vitamin E than flax.
Turmeric is the bright yellow aromatic powder from the ginger family and is usually used for flavoring and coloring, and as a spice in Asian cuisines, especially India, like curry. Turmeric contains the anti-inflammatory antioxidant curcumin which acts as a neuroprotective agent against numerous neurological disorders. Research has shown that it acts as protection for your brain against Alzheimer's disease. India, which uses turmeric as an ingredient for their common food, is known to have the lowest rates of dementia in the world. Health experts believe that this is because of their consumption of turmeric as part of their daily diet in their lifetime.
Curcumin has even been shown to boost memory and stimulate the production of new brain cells, a process known as neurogenesis in which the nervous tissues grow and develop. Curcumin also reverses some biochemical changes made within an aging brain. It binds to heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, copper, zinc, and iron, and by doing so, there will be a counteraction to any of the neurotoxic effects these metals may give to our brains.
According to Steven Pratt, MD (author of Superfoods Rx: Fourteen Foods Proven to Change Your Life), blueberries help protect the brain from oxidative stress and reduce the chances of having Alzheimer's disease or dementia. Blueberries are one of the highest antioxidant-rich foods which include vitamin C, vitamin K, and fiber where all are responsible for capturing radicals that damage our cells in the brain to boost and regulate the blood and oxygen flow. Other than destroying these radicals, they rejuvenate brain cells to protect our brains from degeneration and stress, and from the adverse effects of a non-healthy diet like high blood pressure.
Walnuts are a good source of antioxidants, fibre, iron, magnesium, vitamin E, and omega-3s which are all essential for brain development and growth. The human brain is made of 60% structural fat so it requires high-quality fats like omega-3s, particularly DHA, to keep the brain fluid and flexible.
Research says that walnuts are the best nuts for improving cognitive performances, and prevent age-related illnesses. A research study at Chicago's Rush University Medical Center was conducted to study the lifestyle habits of 6,000 people who were unaffected by Alzheimer's. It was found that those who have the most intake of vitamin E-rich foods have a lower chance of developing diseases that are memory and age-related. Maybe there's a reason walnuts kind of look like our brains….
Nowadays, avocados are made into spreads, jams, sandwiches and even ice cream! It is indeed a fatty fruit but it actually contains a monosaturated fat (healthy fat) and helps in regulating a healthy blood flow because it decreases LDL cholesterol – the bad cholesterol – and increases the HDL cholesterol – the good cholesterol – This prevents the hardening of blood vessels. According to a review published in Nature Reviews Neuroscience in 2008, some nutrients, like folate, that are found in avocados can also improve one's memory and concentration. Another study done in Oregon State University Linus Pauling Institute has suggested that folate reduces the risk of a stroke.
Coconut Oil
If you noticed, coconut oil is often mentioned when talking about at-home healing methods. It's almost as if there is nothing that coconut oil cannot do! According to a research by Dr. Mary Newport, just over two tablespoons of coconut oil (about 35 ml or seven level teaspoons) will help in restoring and renewing neurons, and nerve functions in the brain. Coconut oil consists of medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) that convert the oil inside the body to ketones. Ketones are what fuel our brains. The MCT we put into our bodies go directly to our liver to release the newly-converted oil to energy
Coconut oil also works as a natural anti-inflammatory food. It helps prevent memory loss or any age-related illnesses or disorders and destroys bad bacteria that stay in our stomach organs.
Dark Chocolates
You might have started to worry that none of these foods will satisfy your taste buds but luckily, chocolate can actually be beneficial to our brain health. Dark chocolate is packed with magnesium which increases the production of endorphins and serotonin, and flavonols, which is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. A study published in Neurology found that dark chocolate decreased blood pressure, and could even lower the chances of having a stroke by 17%!It also contains small amounts of caffeine to improve mental alertness and short-term memory which is why a lot of students also eat dark chocolate while studying.
So those were some of the best foods for a healthy brain. Other superfoods include eggs, sea vegetables, fermented foods, and leafy greens. It's imperative to be conscious of the foods that we eat, because they can have a much bigger impact on our bodies than we realize. And remember, having a healthy body also means having a healthy brain!

Check out these films created by students at Guilford College (in Greensboro NC) representing environmental beliefs and values and as stated on their web site: "producing a documentary film allows each student team to communicate and demonstrate not only mastery of key concepts and values of American environmental thought, but also to demonstrate mastery of technical and practical skills such as defining goals, idea development, time management, logical development, and cooperative learning. Creating films not only challenge student teams to confront the difficulty of translating complicated legal and policy issues into a form the average person can understand, but also to engage in interdisciplinary creative and critical thinking and analysis."

Maybe a school, academic, or even public library could offer eco-documentary video creation contests to involved students, or even adults, in the education and discovery process of environmental connections and issues facing our world.
At my University this spring, the Communications & Outreach subcommittee of the UNCG Sustainability Committee lead by the enthusiastic eco-librarian Sarah Dorsey, offered "Sustainable Shorts" film contest – films produced by our students, highlighting a particular issue of sustainability. You can view the winners of the UNCG Sustainability Shorts Film Competition.

Weight loss is a goal many people do not know where to begin with, and often dieters will cut things from their daily routine in a bid to lose weight. However, there are some foods that will only aid weight loss and prevent dieters making unhealthy choices. A recent study found most adults are not getting their suggested intake of fibre – which is at least 30 grams per day. Fibre not only has a number of health benefits including reducing the chances of heart attacks and strokes, it also helps keep weight off.
Increasing your intake of fibre will reduce hunger pangs and encourage you to make healthier choices.
Recent research from the National Association of British and Irish Flour Millers found Britons are unaware of how much fibre experts recommend daily.
One in ten 18 to 44 year olds confessed they don't even know what fibre is or what it does.
Fibre is extremely filling and the body digests it more slowly than simple starches and sugars.
According to Eating Well, a study by Annals of Internal Medicine found dieters who were told to eat at least 30 grams of fibre per day lost a significant amount of weight.
Meanwhile, dietician Nichola Ludlum-Raine explained: "Fibre helps keep our digestive system healthy and can reduce your risk of heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and bowel disease.
"Fibre rich foods in a healthy balanced diet can also help you manage your weight."
Which foods contain fibre?
Nichola advised: "All breads, not just high-fibre breads such as wholemeal, 50:50 or seeded loaves but white bread as well, contain fibre.
"Don't always reach for the salad over the sandwich at lunchtime. Tuck into a sandwich filled with salad instead!"
"Swap sweetened yoghurt for a piece of fruit with natural yoghurt as a dessert, or replace some of the meat in your chilli or Bolognese with beans.
"You can also add frozen veg to lots of dishes from omelettes to risottos.
"And don't forget to keep the skin on your fruit and vegetables – just wash, don't peel."
Nichola added: "Unsalted nuts, seeds – such as chia seeds, sunflower seeds and poppy seeds – and dried fruits are all typically high in fibre and can boost your fibre intake when baking and snacking too."
Oats and some cereals
The nutritionist continued: "Choose a wholegrain cereal such as wheat biscuits or porridge, then top with seeds, chopped nuts and fresh fruit. Or enjoy toast topped with peanut butter and fruit such as banana."
Nichola recommend: "Stir cooked lentils into your soup for a fibre and protein boost."
And if you're wondering how to maintain the recommended daily amount of fibre, which is 30grams, the diet expert has given this example menu:
Breakfast (7g fibre) Two wheat biscuits, 200ml almond milk and topped with one small banana and a small handful (25g) of chopped walnuts.
Snack (2g fibre) one medium apple
Lunch (11g fibre) Sandwich made with two medium slices of wholemeal bread, a handful of salad leaves and 125g of falafel
Snack (5g) Handful (80g) of carrot batons with a quarter of a tub of hummus
Evening Meal (5g) Fajitas made with one tortilla wrap with chicken, a pepper and half an onion

Banned For Life
Local Blood Drive aims to highlight Anti-Gay FDA Policy on blood donations.
Published Feb 2014
In my freshman year of college I decided to donate blood when I saw the Red Cross blood drive trailer in front of our dorms. A nice lady welcomed me in and prepared me for a blood draw. That is, until our conversation brought up the fact that I am a gay man. She told me that by law this fact made me ineligible to donate blood. In my frustration later that day, I researched the legal situation that bans gay men from donating blood in the U.S., only to be reaffirmed of the discrimination that men who have sex with other men are faced with, if they want to donate blood. The good news is, people are starting to see the value of the blood that we as a nation are missing out on. This blood has the potential to save hundreds of thousands of lives. I discussed this topic in a recent conversation with a clinician, who assured me that every single donation is thoroughly tested to ensure the quality and health of the blood. So what is still keeping us from changing this outdated and ill-advised law? In an effort to raise awareness, this Sunday, February 23rd, Rainbow Grocery is hosting a "Banned4Life" blood drive in conjunction with Causes.com and the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. This event will allow you to donate blood in place of a gay or bisexual man, to raise awareness and send a message to FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg M.D. and Secretary Kathleen Sebelius of Health and Human Services to revise the FDA policy that bans men who have sex with other men from donating blood. If you are in San Francisco this Sunday, we encourage you to stop by the blood drive in support of the "Banned4Life" movement, and if you are eligible, please consider donating blood instead of someone who cannot, you might save someone's life. Go to https://www.causes.com/banned4life to sign the petition in support of overturning this ban. Let's make the world a more accepting place, where an American who is willing to sacrifice their time to donate blood for someone else is welcomed and appreciated, regardless of sexual orientation. When: February 23, 2014, 12pm – 4pm PST Where: Rainbow Grocery, 1745 Folsom Street, San Francisco, CA, 94103 Who: Banned4Life, a national advocacy group based in Orlando, that aims to raise awareness about the FDA's policy that bans men who have sex with men (MSM) from donating blood. What: Rainbow Grocery and Causes.com will be hosting a Banned4Life blood drive in San Francisco. The Banned4Life blood drive aims to direct attention to local and national efforts to end end the FDA's anti-gay donation policy and increase blood donations. All individuals are welcomed and encouraged to donate blood in place of a gay or bisexual man who cannot. A rally will take place at 2pm PST.
