"It definitely hurt my feelings."
"It definitely hurt my feelings."
Camila Cabello's new self-titled, debut solo album drops tonight (Jan. 11) at midnight. She's making the rounds right now to make sure people know about it, including a dazzling visual performance of "Never Be The Same" on The Tonight Show, and an interview in the New York Times.
In it, Camila finally opens up about her departure from Fifth Harmony. It's what we all suspected – there was no room for the singer to flex her songwriting skills and grow as an artist.
The "Havana" singer said after her collaboration with Shawn Mendes on "I Know What You Did Last Summer" dropped, she began attending recording sessions with the likes of Diplo, Cashmere Cat and Benny Blanco. That's when the rest of Fifth Harmony began to shut her out and gave Cam an ultimatum: it's us or them.
"It became clear that it was not possible to do solo stuff and be in the group at the same time," she said. So she made a decision. "If anyone wants to explore their individuality, it's not right for people to tell you no."
Months later, after some major soul searching and healing her wounds from leaving the only life she knew, Camila had finally moved on. That is, until 5H poured salt into the wounds with their stunt at the VMAs.
"It definitely hurt my feelings," she said – it marks the first time Camila has ever mentioned it. The NY Times reports CC had tears in her eyes recalling the moment. "I wasn't expecting it, I wasn't prepared for it — especially because at that point I'd moved on from it. I was just like, 'What? Why?'"
She added: "I have to make space for the good stuff to happen in my life," she said. "I don't like holding onto the past, especially when it's stuff that, in my opinion, is just petty."
Read her full interview here. Camila premieres tonight.

I'm frequently asked about Lufthansa's mileage expiration policy. Most airlines publish pretty straightforward mileage expiration policies, though Lufthansa is an exception.
In general Lufthansa Miles & More miles expire 36 months after they're issued. At least that's the simple answer. The slightly longer answer (which works in our favor) is that they expire at the end of the quarter 36 months after they're issued. In other words, if you earn miles in October 2014 they expire in December 2017.
Unlike with other airlines, that policy is based on when the miles are earned and not based on when you last had mileage activity. With the major US programs you can keep your miles "alive" just by having some qualifying activity every so often (usually every ~18 months). With Lufthansa, however, miles typically expire regardless of when your last activity was, but rather exclusively based on when they were earned.
There are two exceptions for extending the life of your Lufthansa miles beyond 36 months:
- Lufthansa miles do not expire if you have the Premier Miles & More® World Mastercard® (or their co-branded credit card issued in select other countries) for at least three months, and make a minimum of one eligible purchase per month. If you cancel the credit card, the original expiration date applies again, though you do have until the end of the quarter to redeem them.
- Lufthansa miles do not expire if you're an elite member — Frequent Traveller, Senator, or HON Circle — in the Miles & More program. If you lose status, your 36 month "clock" starts from the time that your status is lost.
Also, while I know this is obvious to many, it's worth noting that you only have to redeem your miles by the expiration date. You can still book travel for subsequent dates as long as the ticket is issued before the miles are set to expire.

Bethany & Brian || Engagement Session Wellston, MI || Elizabeth Marie Photography
I am sooo so so excited to be sharing these images with you! As I write this post and upload these photos it's like I'm reliving each moment I captured from this session and WOW! I have goosebumps and the corniest grin on my face right now.
Last year I met Bethany at a Breastfeeding Mamas Group Photo Event that I host once a year in August (this year will be the 4th year so keep your eyes peeled for more info regarding that very soon). So, when she got a hold of me to photograph her engagement and wedding, I was beyond thrilled!
Fast forward a few months to June. Bethany, her family, including their super cute black lab named Chinook, and I explored an area none of us have ever explored before, the Cooley Bridge Roadside Park in Wellston. If you have never been there before, please do yourself a favor and check it out!
Bethany and Brian are such a down to earth, sweet couple. I feel like we could've hung out/explored/took photos all night long. They had me squealing with joy during their whole session. It sounds creepy using the word "squeal" but I can't think of a better word…it was like an "eeeeeek" of excitement haha. I could literally feel the love they have for each other just radiating from them. They are seriously so dang cute and perfect, I can't get over it.
To say that I'm excited for their wedding this Fall is an understatement…I cannot wait!
Here are a few of my favorites from their session.

TECH COMPANIES: Why A Big Tech Breakup Looks Better To Washington
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
SAN FRANCISCO — A decade ago, when the greed and carelessness of the financial industry came close to destroying the American economy, the overwhelming response by politicians and the public was: Meh. Almost instantly, all was forgiven and forgotten.
Now the tech industry — which, among other impressive innovations, provides the world's knowledge on demand, lets people freely broadcast their diverse opinions and has made shopping as easy as pushing a button — has made some mistakes of its own. It has abused privacy, squeezed the competition and casually spread hate. And that's just the beginning of the list.
Google, Facebook, Amazon and Apple might not get away as cleanly as Goldman Sachs and Citigroup. Elizabeth Warren, the Massachusetts senator who is seeking the Democratic presidential nomination, released proposals this month that would force tech breakups and impose severe restrictions on what remained. Another Democratic presidential candidate, Senator Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, covered more briefly some of the same ground, saying, "We have a major monopoly problem."
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
At a moment when nearly everything in America seems wildly contentious, antitrust action against tech is getting a sober look. Antitrust is the nuclear bomb of regulatory policy, but the reaction to Ms. Warren's and Ms. Klobuchar's ideas was surprisingly receptive.
"We've got to break these guys apart," Ms. Warren said in an interview on "Face the Nation." The show could name only one critic of her proposal: Howard Schultz, the Starbucks mogul, who is flirting with an independent run for president to the deep disregard of voters.
"A billionaire, right?" Ms. Warren noted.
"We've got to break these guys apart," Senator Elizabeth Warren, Democrat of Massachusetts, said of tech companies during an interview on "Face the Nation."
"We've got to break these guys apart," Senator Elizabeth Warren, Democrat of Massachusetts, said of tech companies during an interview on "Face the Nation."
For decades, a politician who mentioned "antitrust" was essentially arguing for more government oversight, which has been dangerous territory at least since the Ronald Reagan administration. "Antitrust" was relegated to the shelf with "socialism" and "wealth inequality" and "higher taxes for higher incomes."
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
It didn't help that what could be called "maximum antitrust" — when the Justice Department decides a company is abusing its monopoly power and should be broken up — has a mixed history. The government dropped such a case against IBM in 1982 after more than a decade. It settled its case against Microsoft in 2001. Only AT&T, which agreed in 1982 to dissolve itself into a long-distance company and the seven Baby Bells, could be considered an unqualified success from the government's point of view.
The political landscape is shifting, however, at a speed that dumbfounds even antitrust experts. President Barack Obama thought of the tech companies in the way they think of themselves: as progressive, smart entrepreneurs who want what's best for America. His administration declined to pursue Google on antitrust charges and hired from the tech industry for top posts. Top staff members later went to work for the tech industry in top posts, too. It was a cozy relationship.
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
"Something has definitely changed," said Geoffrey A. Manne, the founder of the International Center for Law and Economics, a think tank in Portland, Ore. "Most voters are very fond of Amazon, Apple, Google and even Facebook. But I think there's also a growing sense of skepticism about all these companies. The shine has come off."
Mr. Manne, who has been a critic of the antitrust arguments against Google and has received funding from the search giant as well as from some of its competitors, including Comcast and AT&T, eviscerated Ms. Warren's proposal with his colleague Alec Stapp in a recent blog post. They wrote that the senator's plan to turn the top companies into heavily regulated "platform utilities" would make them as resistant to improvement as sewer systems or Amtrak.
And yet, Mr. Manne conceded in an interview, increased regulation is an idea whose time may have come.
"There is a long history in America — just not a recent one — of using the power of the state to counteract the economic power of private enterprise," he said. "We may be at that moment again."
The financial firms were predatory last decade, exploiting weak spots in the mortgage markets in a way that undermined their viability. Google and Facebook, by contrast, offer their services for free, while Amazon built its reputation on selling as cheaply as possible. That makes it hard to regulate them by the antitrust consensus, which for a couple of decades has held that there is no injury unless consumers directly suffer by paying higher prices.

Nothing is ever really free, of course, and there has been a dawning realization among some consumers that they are paying for these services with information about themselves. How most users feel about this seems up in the air, as evidenced by a new SurveyMonkey poll done for the news site Axios.
The headline finding was that "a growing majority now views our online privacy as a crisis." But deeper in the survey was the revelation that more than half the respondents said they were unwilling to pay to keep from being tracked by a service they were using. Twenty-one percent said they would pay less than $1 a month, and no more, for the right.
Users, it seems, want it both ways: privacy and free services. This is the contradiction at the heart of the internet.
Daniel Crane, an antitrust expert at the University of Michigan, said Ms. Warren's proposal might be a hard sell to voters. "The median consumer probably feels that she gets lots of free goodies from Big Tech and will worry about what it would mean to go after them," he said.
But Mr. Crane noted that being broken up was the least of the companies' worries. "A likelier consequence is that the next acquisition they want to make will be rejected," he said. "Even just the rhetoric can complicate their lives and put pressure going forward."
That is already happening. One of the anti-competitive complaints about Amazon is that it prohibited its merchants from selling more cheaply elsewhere. That prevented a new platform from underselling Amazon and gaining a competitive edge.
Amazon ended this practice in Europe six years ago, but it continued in the United States. Senator Richard Blumenthal, a Democrat from Connecticut, asked for regulators to investigate in December. Last week, Amazon confirmed that it had dropped the requirement.
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
Antitrust talk emboldens competitors as well. Google controls much of the market for online ads in Australia, just as it does elsewhere. That presents a big problem for News Corporation, which owns eight of the 10 largest papers in the country.
The Rupert Murdoch-controlled media conglomerate asked Australian regulators last week to take the "very serious step" of breaking up Google in the country because of the "unparalleled power that it currently exerts over news publishers and advertisers alike."
In this new environment, winning can soon look a lot like losing.
Amazon opposed a proposal in Seattle last spring for a corporate tax to help the homeless, and succeeded in getting it cut in half. Then the retailer decided it just couldn't live with the measure at all. A repeal effort began. The City Council killed the tax just as it was going into effect.
Amazon opposed a proposal in Seattle last spring for a corporate tax to help the homeless. The tax was eventually repealed. But in the months since, some residents began to say the company was a bully.

At the time, that looked like another triumph for Amazon. But in the months since, even some of those who thought the tax was a bad idea have found their views evolving.
"My feelings about Amazon have changed, and not in a good way," said Julie Shapiro, a Seattle University professor of family law. "I think they want the ability to be a bully and, once they have it, they're quite willing to use it."
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
That is the crux of the issue: Can a company be dominant without coming off as a bully? It is no accident that the company that was the subject of the biggest antitrust action in the last quarter-century — Microsoft — had a terrible reputation in the tech community. Voters love innovation, convenience and entrepreneurs. They don't love bullies.
Amazon failed to avoid bullying behavior in its now-abandoned bid to build a headquarters in New York, and Facebook likewise failed last week when it took down Ms. Warren's posts about Facebook having too much power. The company, which said the posts had violated the use of its logo, quickly restored them, but the public relations damage had been done.
"Curious why I think FB has too much power?" Ms. Warren tweeted. "Let's start with their ability to shut down a debate over whether FB has too much power."

Red Bull Racing, US Navy tech and being transparent – Five things you need to know about Anglian Water's new £6.5bn plan
PUBLISHED: 12:59 04 September 2018 | UPDATED: 12:57 05 October 2018
Anglian Water has revealed how it wants to spend £6.5bn to protect the region's water supplies in the coming years. Business editor Mark Shields takes a look at five things we learned from the plan.
Resilience (or you don't know what you've got till it's gone)
This was one of the watchwords in Anglian Water's plan – in short, making sure that there's water when we turn on the tap.
Of course, that means it's something that's only noticed by its absence: when resilience measures fail, customers are left without water.
When pointing to the importance of investing in resilience, boss Peter Simpson flagged up the company's response to the Beast from the East when, well, almost nothing happened.
Of the 200,000 homes left without water for an extended period of time in the UK, just 163 were in Anglian Water's patch, earning the company recognition from industry watchdog Ofwat for its performance. It also avoided imposing hosepipe bans or other restrictions during the summer heatwave.
That, said Anglian Water, reflected the money it had poured into spreading risks and building back-ups to water supplies – such as the £15m East Hills waterworks in Costessey opened in 2011 to reduce the pressure on the Heigham treatment works serving the city.
By 2025, just 10% of customers will be served by one water treatment works, compared to 40% currently.
Getting up to speed with Red Bull Racing
While other companies have been learning from its industry-leading work on leaks and water efficiency, Anglian Water has been examining other industries to see what it can glean.
That included visits to Red Bull Racing in Milton Keynes to see how the Formula 1 team develops new components at speed and under pressure.
While a typical Anglian Water component might have 150 changes between iterations – "a tough process" – the lesson from Red Bull was an eye-opener, said Mr Simpson.
"It tests your thinking. We used to think about making changes, and a lot of the engineering systems we had used to make it quite difficult. We made 100-150 changes, and it was quite clunky.
"They made something like 13,000 changes to their cars in a matter of four or five races of the season – and they went faster. We thought we were good at this, but it reset the paradigm for us."
The company has also learned from other automotive companies, particularly about modular manufacturing for buildings – putting together complex parts off-site to be assembled in situ.
"If we're going to build a new treatment works we will build it in a factory environment, on a manufacturing production line, and then bring it to site as a series of Lego blocks," said Mr Simpson. "That's completely different to how we would have done it a few years ago which is basically turn up on site and start pouring concrete."
Going underground... with US Navy technology
While Anglian Water's record on leaks is the best in the country, it means that it has to look harder for improvement – and in doing so has employed technology first developed in the US Navy.
The previous technique – noise-logging correlation – relied on, in simple terms, listening for the sound of water coming out of a pipe. But the submarine technology developed by the navy, known as hydrophone technology, detects noise through the column of water.
"What that enables you to do is much better locate leaks across much larger distances and across different pipe materials," said Mr Simpson.
"The problem with the other technologies is they were good on some materials like cast-iron but really difficult on plastic."
He added: "[The technology] is taking us to a new frontier in being able to identify leaks."
Under its five-year plan, Anglian Water is investing £240m to cut leaks by 22% across its 40,000km of pipes. It already has the biggest telemetry system in Europe, helping it to monitor pressure and flow readings across the network and identify where to focus its attentions.
"The real success in leakage is knowing where to go, so that when the team roll up on site they dig the hole and that's the leak to repair," said Mr Simpson.
For a company in the water business, being crystal clear ought to be an advantage.
But the industry has endured a torrid time of late, with peers such as Thames Water coming under pressure for its poor record on leaks while shareholders enjoyed bumper payouts, and environment secretary Michael Gove warning the sector of its "concerning" behaviour.
Anglian Water has sought to distance itself from those concerns through a raft of transparency measures announced in May.
They include becoming the first company to offload its unused subsidiary in the Cayman Islands, repaying an intra-company loan and changing its board structure to include a majority of independent non-executive directors.
The company points to its recognition as Responsible Business of the Year by Business in the Community last year as evidence that its reputation is different to others in the industry.
Of the transparency measures, Mr Simpson said: "Our owners and board wanted were particularly keen to differentiate ourselves and move ahead so that we didn't get caught up in some of the accusations around what was going on."
Bills, bills, bills
For many, this will be the only measure of the plan that matters – what it's going to cost the customer.
The average bill – which the company says is today £423 a year across its four million customers – will rise by 0.9% at the start of the period (2020-2025) but will have returned to current levels by the end, and continue at that level to 2030.
At the start of the last plan, in 2014-15, the average bill stood at £469.
But shareholders are also "putting their money where their mouth is" by taking smaller dividends so that the money can be reinvested in the business, says Anglian Water.
The company highlights the 500,000 people who took part in the consultation over the plan, in particular the 80% who said they would be willing to pay up to 2.5% extra to deliver priorities including fewer leaks, extra environmental protection and greater resilience for the 200,000 new homes forecast to be built in the region by 2025.
"If we hadn't had the big ramp-up to deal with growth and for the environment, then bills would have been going down by 3-4%," said Mr Simpson.
"In the previous five years we had the biggest bill reduction of any water company, a reduction of 10%. There will be other companies which will have bill reductions, but they won't have a 30% increase in investment."
Anglian Water also has a package of measures to help 475,000 customers who struggle with their bills.

Student Suspended For Patriotic Display
Student Suspended For Being Too Patriotic
Minnesota high school student Bryce Reps is fighting a five-day suspension for his public display of patriotism, which he says could hurt his chances of being awarded a $15,000 Air Force scholarship, Good Morning America reports. According to Red Wing High School, Reps was the ringleader of more than a dozen students who painted "USA," "God Bless America," and "Never Forget 9/11" with erasable chalk on windows and doors and stuck 150 mini American Flags on the grounds.
As part of the school's homecoming festivities, students were asked to dress up for a day of American pride. But Reps says some students wanted to do more to show their patriotism, so they snuck onto school grounds to give it the extra flair. Unfortunately, the students didn't realize that the temporary paint they used would only come off of plastic and glass — not wood, leaving the school with $2,000 worth of damages. The school punished the students for vandalism and defacing school property, but the kids believe the lengthy suspension is excessive. "There was never any intent to permanently damage anything. It was just a prank. We just wanted to decorate the school to prove that we're patriotic," Reps says.
Did the school go too far in punishing the teens?

A quick and very tasty barbecue sauce that should be used to baste barbecue meats during the last minutes of cooking.
needed barbque sauce in a hurry for spare ribs, no time to shop for ingredients, searched myrecipe.com and there it was! Very happy with the results too! Thanks! - 05 Jun 2000 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
I LOVE this sweet sauce. I've been making it for about a year and have passed it onto several people. I only use about 1/2 the packet of onion soup mix and 1/2 of the worcestershire called for. I also add a tablespoon or two of pineapple juice (something my grandma always added to her bbq sauces). This sauce makes delicious ham bbq sandwiches. Just whip up the sauce and add some finely chipped ham. - 14 Feb 2002 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)

"Trick or Treat!"
After years of Trick-or-Treating and then several more years of taking my children out on Halloween, I've seen all types of goodies. Some Halloween handouts are good while others are not so good. Many parents who take the time to go through their children's goody bags will find lots of fun and good treats but they will also find the occasional items that must go straight into the trash.Credit: MorgueFiles.com
Halloween, just as everything, has its fans and its foes. While some fans may be generous, others may not be in a position to give much, however they still try to give items that children will enjoy. Then there are the foes that do not give out anything or worse, give out items meant to disappoint children. (People who handout items meant to hurt children do not belong in the 'Foe' category, they belong in the criminal category!)
If you are taking your little 'ghouls' out Trick-or-Treating this year, I hope they get lots of good treats and none of the bad. If you are handing out goodies, take some time to purchase some of the items that children will enjoy. They don't have to be expensive (if you can't give out full size candy bars, give fun size) as long as the candy is a good quality, it will be appreciated).
"Trick or Treat – Give Me Something Good to Eat!"
10 Good Treats
Full Size Candy Bars: Scoring a full size candy bar is like winning the Halloween lotto! Although these larger candy bars may be rare in some neighborhoods and non-existent in others; you just might get lucky and find a generous homeowner (but please don't go back for seconds, it just ruins it for everyone). All full size bars are good, and some of the favorites are Hershey's Milk Chocolate Bars, Snickers, Milky Way Bars, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, and Monds Almond Joy.
Fun Size Chocolate Bars: Although smaller than the full sized candy, these fun size bars are still popular, especially when the fun size candy is a chocolate bar. Adults love them because they can control how much candy their children eat and they can also snack on the smaller sized candy. If the fun size bars are good quality everyone will appreciate them.
Halloween Toys: Mini novelty Halloween toys can be a fun and different treat for kids. These tiny trinkets can keep children content for an hour or two; just long enough for you to go through their goody bags.
Candy Necklace: Individually wrapped candy necklaces are a fun treat kids enjoy wearing and showing-off to their friends.
Mini Color Books: Halloween theme mini color books can be a fun treat (as with the toys) these mini color books can keep children occupied and happy without having to fill-up on too much candy.
Tootsie Pops: Almost everyone loves Tootsie Pops, the sweet hard candy shell with the semi-soft chocolate tootsie roll in the middle. They've been a favorite of kids and adults alike for years.
Candy Fangs or Teeth: Individually wrapped candy fangs or teeth are a good treat because kids love seeing themselves with these fun teeth in their mouth. They can pretend to be a vampire with fangs or a monster with big teeth or they can just have fun being silly.
Pencils: Pencils with a colorful eraser on top are a great practical treat. The erasers can be a Halloween theme or other popular characters that kids enjoy. Pencils will still be useful months after all the candy has been eaten.
Ring Pops: These are fun candy rings that kids love to wear and eat. All Ring Pops are individually wrapped and children like to put them on their fingers and pretend they are real jewelry.
Fun Stickers: You can find fun Halloween stickers at inexpensive prices. Children enjoy placing stickers on notebooks, lunch bags, or on other items.
"Trick or Treat – Smell My Feet!"
10 Bad Treats
Fruit: Never give out any type of fresh fruit because it will most likely be thrown away due to safety concerns. Also, most children want candies on Halloween not fruit.
Toothbrushes: While some adults may like the idea of their child getting a toothbrush, most children don't care for them. You can buy your child a toothbrush anytime, Halloween is a time for children to be excited about, and enjoy the items they get in their goody bags.
Old Leftover Candy: Some people see nothing wrong with handing-out old leftover candy but it can really be disgusting, especially when the candy is so old that it is not edible. If you're a person who doesn't mind old candy, keep it for yourself and give the good candy to the kids on Halloween.
Homemade Treats: Several years ago homemade items such as fudge or cookies were considered good treats, however nowadays you don't know what ingredients people are putting into homemade items. I throw away all homemade items, as do most people. Save the homemade treats for your family.
Popcorn Balls: Children generally don't like these, they are not tasty and they are difficult to eat.
Ketchup and Mustard Packets: This is just plain mean!
Candy Canes (from last Christmas): This is not a good treat! First of all, you know they are old (probably from last Christmas or even older) and second, no one is in the mood for a candy cane on Halloween!
Tiny Box of Raisins: While it may make health conscious adults feel good, most children will not eat them. Those healthy raisins will most likely end up in the trash bin.
Coupons: It doesn't matter what the coupon is, it's not a good treat (especially when the coupon has expired).
Nothing: The ultimate bad item is nothing, but it is still better than giving something out that will harm children. So for anyone who is thinking about giving something hurtful; just lock your door, turn-off your lights, ignore everyone and don't give out anything! For those who cannot give anything because they cannot afford it; sit outside with your neighbors while they give out goodies. You can also talk to your neighbors and see if they are willing to pitch-in and purchase goodies that you can give out together.
Have a fun and safe Halloween!

Today everyone knows it and everyone does it: encourage customers to post comments on social networks and opinion sites.
However, not everyone gets the same result. Why is that?
Because some hoteliers work their e-reputation much more than others.
What are the 3 key points to their success?
Understand the subject
The first step is to better understand the topic of e-reputation. It's not just a note posted on the web. It really reflects all that your hotel represents, its public image.
"Yes, but it doesn't reflect reality!!! I'm fed up; it's only my angry customers who write comments!!! So, in the end, I don't care and I won't even look at Tripadvisor."
This is the normal reaction of an hotelier who is disillusioned by the system, an hotelier who has lost all hope of being able to do something about it. I understand!
Unfortunately, this is definitely a very bad way of understanding the problem, because what is written on the web is what your potential future customers will think of your hotel. Don't fool yourself, they won't take a moment to stop and think "Ah, but it's only the angry customers who commented! In fact, the hotel may be and probably is great. "
This quite a classic phenomenon exists in all domains. For example, when Netflix displays a new movie with a score of 1 out of 5 and there are no known actors that you like, are you still going to bother taking an entire evening to watch it?
So, please, put aside your grievances and see for yourself that e-reputation is not necessarily connected to reality. The truth is that it is 100% connected to the reality perceived by the surfer looking to travel in your area.
Point 1: the quality of your hotel
The first step is obvious, though all too often forgotten or underestimated: the quality of your hotel and its customer service.
There is no point in talking about e-reputation without remembering the weak points of your hotel, points to work on after having categorized them:

Saving Money In The Cloud
If you ever started a side project or a startup and the costs depends solely on you, you'll probably agree with me that saving money is very important.
I started using Amazon AWS for servers and GitHub. The main reason was that I wanted to know more about the cutting edge stuff, but once I got the knowledge that I wanted, costs started to show up. Now I want to share with you my tips to keep the quality and save money:
1) Embrace Static Websites
If you're making a landing page, a blog, or any other website that could become static pages, turn them into static websites. Forget Wordpress, use Jekyll. Static websites are faster, cheaper and secure. You can upload your entire website to Amazon S3, pay a few dollars per month and serve your website from there! When combined with the s3_website gem, it becomes the state-of-art for static websites IMHO.
2) Activate Swap on your Instances
If you run out of memory, your server will crash and you'll probably want a more expensive server to deal with the traffic. However, if the workload isn't that much beyond your memory limit, you can use Swap to store what is beyond memory limit in the hard drive. It will become a bit slower, but saves you a lot of trouble. If your instance is SSD backed as Digital Ocean instances, you'll suffer less when reading from the hard drive.
At least in some Digital Ocean images, SWAP does not come activated by default. You need to enable it by using the following commands:
# 3GB Swap, but you can change it, of course
# Usually set it between 3GB and 5GB sounds good
# As root, execute the following commands:
fallocate -l 3G /swapfile;
chmod 600 /swapfile;
mkswap /swapfile;
swapon /swapfile;
echo "/swapfile none swap sw 0 0" >> /etc/fstab;
3) Move from GitHub to BitBucket
I was reluctant to change because the absence of 2 factor in there, but they implemented and I don't see a reason to don't move from GitHub to BitBucket as you can have unlimited private repositories. The cost starts to show up when you need more people to interact with your repositories, but until then, for small teams, is great. The logic is the following:
- GitHub: unlimited collaborators X pay per private repository
- BitBucket: pay per collaborator X unlimited private repositores
One more thing
As I mentioned Digital Ocean, I moved from AWS EC2 to there because of the instance pricing (in comparison to AWS EC2 On Demand) and because of their high quality support. And althought it lacks the AWS Ecosystem, I'm very happy with the change. If you want to try them and get 10 USD credit right off the bat, use this link https://www.digitalocean.com/?refcode=29f27a38d927.
Stay tuned! More posts are coming :)

Students on the undergraduate program in Management are provided the opportunity to have unique experiences. All the students can propose, develop, and participate in many student initiatives, activities with real organizations, and international activities.
School of Management Student Council (CEFA).
CEFA is the student council that represents the School of Management's students. Its main goal is to develop projects that improve their well-being. It has an active role in the School's decision-making bodies and it communicates directly with the direction of the undergraduate programs.
The projects currently developed and coordinated by CEFA are as follows:
- CEFA conference cycle: a series of conferences organized by students and for students with entrepreneurs and global business leaders on different topics including sustainability, entrepreneurship, internationalization, economics, etc.
- TedxLasAguas: TED is a nonprofit organization funded in 1984 that seeks to spread ideas through a series of short but powerful conferences which gather the world's most important leaders, thinkers, and entrepreneurs to share experiences of topics they are passionate about. TEDx is a local event held annually under the official TED license. These events focus on individuals, innovation and the main problems of our society. TEDx events cover a main topic that varies every year and even though they are coordinated and planned independently, they are governed by official TED norms and license.
- Peter Drucker Cup: is the School of Management's 5-a-side soccer tournament, which awards the highest prize of the whole University.
- Gloria Project: a cultural international student exchange project supported by students at St. Gallen University, Switzerland, in which 20 management students travel to Switzerland to have a full Swiss cultural experience while 20 students from St. Gallen come to Colombia.
- Welcoming activities for first-year students: integration activities for the first-year students on the undergraduate program in management.
- The School of Management integration party: at the end of each semester.
The Reporter
The Reporter is the School of Management's student newspaper, which was born of a CEFA student initiative and became independent thanks to its acceptance among students.
International competitions
Each semester, undergraduate students take part in competitions organized by companies, obtaining very good results. Such opportunities provide Universidad de los Andes students with a chance to experience university life beyond classrooms.
As such, they are able to propose, develop, and participate in:
- The University's research groups and projects.
- Practice and competitions in 30 different sports (soccer, basketball, tennis, rugby, capoeira, martial arts, billiards, and contemporary dance, among others).

Stirling stars as Ireland thrash Kenya in T20
MOMBASA, Kenya (AFP) - Paul Stirling starred with both the bat and ball as Ireland beat Kenya by eight wickets in the second international Twenty20 match at the Mombasa Sports Club grounds on Thursday.
The 21-year-old Middlesex player took two wickets in the Kenyan top order and almost single-handedly won the game for his team with an unbeaten 65 to give the hosts their second crushing defeat in the three-match series.
Spinner George Dockrell and pacemen Trent Johnston, John Mooney and Kevin O'Brien had each grabbed one wicket apiece as Kenya reached 131 for seven after being put in to bat.
The Irish victory served as a morale boost in their preparations for next month's Twenty20 World Cup qualifying tournament in the United Arab Emirates.
The third and final match in the series will be played on Friday.

Shipping costs are one of the biggest expenses for small businesses, but it is possible to reduce them. Here are a few ideas.
1. Negotiate. Shipping carriers will negotiate their rates based on your annual shipping volume. The more you ship, the lower your rate. Once you have secured a lower rate with your carrier, you can easily add it to ShipWorks.
2. Know where you're shipping. If you primarily ship to one specific region, a regional carrier may be your best bet. Regional carriers often provide lower rates than national shipping carrieres because they cover a small geographic area. For example, OnTrac is a ShipWorks partner that covers the West Coast and they offer fast deliveries within California, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, Utah, Colorado and Idaho.
3. Use 3rd party insurance. Carriers charge more for shipping insurance than third party companies. Carriers charge about $0.90 for every $100 of insurance, and third party companies charge about $0.55 cents for every $100. This savings can add up, especially if you ship expensive items.
4. Watch out for fees. Depending on the shipping carrier you use, you may be charged for things like Saturday delivery, fuel surcharges, delivery signatures, and residential delivery charges. Understand these fees in advance so that you don't pay for a delivery feature that isn't important to you and your customers.
5. Use online shipping. This one is obvious to ShipWorks users, but if you're new to shipping, you'll quickly learn that there is a huge cost savings when you skip the post office counter and print your postage online. The USPS has authorized Endicia and Stamps.com to provide internet based postage. You'll use your computer to buy postage from either of these companies, and then the USPS will deliver the package for you.
6. Discounts for Priority Mail Express and Priority Mail. If you prefer to ship with USPS Priority Mail Express or Priority Mail, make sure you purchase postage through Express 1. Express 1 is a USPS partner and they provide substantial postal discounts to companies. The really great part of this is that you get the discount regardless of your shipping volume and without signing a contract. If you're using ShipWorks, Express 1 is free and it's easy to use.
7. Right-size it. Shipping carriers charge based on the package's size, weight and destination. You will save money by using lighter and smaller packaging versus large boxes. Don't use a large box if a smaller box or bubble mailer will do.
8. Use free or discounted shipping supplies. Depending on shipping method you plan to use, you can often get free shipping supplies from USPS, FedEx and UPS. Alternatively, you can purchase discounted supplies when purchasing in bulk online. If you use your own packaging, you may have a "dimensional fee" for packages that exceed the carrier's size regulations. You can avoid these charges by using the carrier's packaging.

Space, the Iconic Ibiza club, celebrated its 25th birthday on 13 July with a massive party featuring a Cadac CDC four digital console, Full Fat Audio amps with XTA processing and one of the most sophisticated Funktion-One speaker systems in the world.
As with the club's earlier 2014 season 'Opening Fiesta' on 25 May, the Funktion-One rig and Cadac desk were deployed by Ibiza sound specialist Project Audio.
Dave Millard, founder of Full Fat Audio, was Project Audio's sound engineer for both events, working in partnership with Funktion-One chief Tony Andrews and Project Audio's Ibiza system technician George Yankov. He comments: "We used the [Cadac analogue console] LIVE1 on the opening party, but for the 25th anniversary, we needed to wireless mic a troupe of flamenco dancers on stage and use some effects on them, so we went with the CDC four for that.
"It was a real pleasure to use both the analogue LIVE1 and digital CDC four. The audio performance of both consoles is equally excellent. I cannot recall another desk so transparent and with so much drive and finesse. The CDC four really allows the audio to breath and just does not sound digital at all. Every nuance of a recording or live input can be heard, with even subtle changes to the controls. Bass performance is exciting with every note precise. Build quality is also first class and user interaction is straightforward."
The 25th anniversary party featured a lineup of Ibiza regulars, including appearances by Nina Kraviz, Carl Craig, Jimmy Edgar, Shaun Reeves, Layo and Bushwacka!, Alfredo, José Padilla, Jose De Divina and César De Melero; a four-hour set by Erick Morillo; and cameo spots from Fatboy Slim and Annie Mac.

Audiosurf Coming to iPhone?
Apple's announcement of the newest version of the iPhone operating system, which allows applications to access the phone's library of music, might be paving the way for the release of popular music game Audiosurf on the device.
When Apple revealed the iPhone OS 3.0 earlier this week, there was plenty to be happy about, but there was plenty to be a bit wary of, as well, especially what looks like an incoming tsunami of microtransactions in games and other applications. Here's something to add to the good category, though: the new OS might allow 2008's popular music game Audiosurf to come to the iPhone.
The idea of a portable Audiosurf has seemed pretty obvious for awhile, but developer Dylan Fitterer has kept the game PC-exclusive because there isn't really any other platform that works with the central idea of building a game out of a music collection. With the iPhone's OS 3.0, however, applications (like games) will be able to access data from the device's memory, including its music library. Seems perfect, doesn't it?
iPhone site The APPera thought so, and they wrote to Fitterer letting him know about the OS update, since the beta of the OS is apparently out and available for developers to tinker with. Fitterer replied shortly afterward, saying enthusiastically: "Woohoo! I'm on it!" Guy sounds pretty psyched, so we'll take this as an unofficial confirmation.
Audiosurf, if you don't remember or never played it, is a driving game of sorts that takes files from your computer's music collection and uses each track to generate a unique level based on the rhythm, instrumentation and general musical DNA of that song. So a song full of tempo changes is a real roller coaster ride, while something more placid makes for a more low-key experience. Can't wait to play some Phil Collins ("In The Air Tonight," no doubt) on the subway.
[Via NeoGAF]
Heh, Audiosurf. My Anti-Homework.
That game is better than ever thanks to the constant updating he does. Really superb work. I'm not surprised Apple is courting him though, when they opened up the m4a files for Audiosurf I knew they were realizing the potential.
Mmmmm, splendid game, and perfect for the iPhone, too.
Damn... now that's two reasons to buy an iPhone...
The other one is Smule, the iOcarina.
I know, eh?
If this ever comes into fruition, that is the day I get an iPhone.
Please bring this to the Iphone!
Oh and krunk. You should need that game as a reason to get the Iphone! It is awesome, there is your reason!
Well, all the more power to Iphone owners, I guess.

Too many films, too little time! Check out our brief thoughts on 3 films currently available to rent & own.
Sleeping Beauty
Without question a more pointless film does not exist than Sleeping Beauty. This is easily the worst film of the 12 months – and War Horse & The Change-Up came out in that time-frame. The film follows Lucy (Emily Browning) a university student who takes a job with a high-class prostitution agency. We see the work she does and a hint of some of the impact it has on her life. While this film is beautifully shot, beauty alone isn't a good enough reason for this film to exist. It is little more than art-porn; a soulless work that doesn't make any statement or point. Perhaps if the film had shown more of the impact of the work on Lucy – or even let us know a little more about the men; but the characters were nothing more than robots. This film is one of the most technically brilliant preposterous pieces of garbage in existence.
Charming, heart-felt and an absolute delight to watch. Beginners shows us the final period of Hal field's (Christopher Plummer) life through the narration and perspective of his son Oliver (Ewan McGregor). After the death of Hal's wife, Hal reveals he is gay, and proceeds to spend the rest of his life as a proud gay man. The film is beautiful in so many ways. We watch Oliver as he packs his father's house up and reflects on how he chose to live his final days. At the same time we see Oliver trying to understand where his life is heading & wonder if he is living his life as his true self. It's very much a film of self-reflection and paths left unexplored. One final comment – the dog in this film is absolutely adorable. It adds to the story rather than distracting from it. Uggie eat your heart out!
Oranges and Sunshine
A moving film which tells the story of British social worker Margaret Humphreys (Emily Watson) who discovers that in the post World War 2 period, British children were made wards of the state and shipped off to Australia unaccompanied. These children were told their parents had died or had abandoned them, when in fact they were often taken forcibly. The film follows Margaret as she tries to discover what happened to these children and how it was allowed to take place. What started off as a quest to reunite a small group of children with their families, turns into something much bigger once the sheer number of children involved becomes clear. To make things worse, she discovers that many of the children had been subject to abuse by their Australian carers. The cast in this film is absolutely suburb and they do an incredible job and expressing the emotion and pain of their characters. Beautifully shot, well paced, and absolutely heart-breaking. A truly great Australian film.

It seems like the price/value ratio of the SSD drives is slowly improving. The Buffalo LS-WSS240GL/R1 costs about 1200$ and has an appealing 240GB of storage. It provides USB, RAID 0, 1 and DLMA/iTunes server capabilities while you can turn the whole thing off when you turn your computer off. Don't get too excited although because the 240GB is actually two 120GB SSD's next to each other.
In Hungary, after stealing some IBM tech there were companies selling "super computers". These machines had two motherboards in them, basically two computers pushed in to one case. I didn't know they still do that.

Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), also called familial spastic paraparesis (FSP), refers to a group of inherited disorders that are quite different in their cause and presentation but all share the trait of weakness and spasticity (stiffness) and mild reduction of vibration sensation of the lower extremities and urinary urgency may occur. Initial symptoms that make be experienced are mild difficulties in walking style (causing what is called a spastic gait) and mild leg stiffness.

[AMERICANS ABROAD] Charlie Davies' season of frustration in Denmark continued as he was red-carded in stoppage time of
FC Randers' 1-0 loss to AaB for head-butting an opponent.
The former U.S. international lost the ball at the corner flag, was called for a foul for tackling Aab's Jakob Ahlmann Nielsen from behind and then rose off the ground and then lunged at Ahlmann Nielsen, hitting him with his head.

Sad - Sad - Sad...
He's always had a tendency to be "trailer trash."

At the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, Rinspeed is presenting its concept car of the future which is based on the fact that cars will become autonomous soon and people traveling in it will find more time spending in a meaningful way. Frank M. Rinderknecht describes the status quo like this: "So far hardly anyone has taken this to its logical conclusion from the perspective of the driver. After all, traveling in a driverless car will no longer require me to stare at the road, but will let me spend my time in a more meaningful way." And then he poses the key question: How will the interior of a vehicle have to be designed to let the now largely unburdened driver make optimal use of the gain in time?
This future concept car features Windows tablets for its infotainment system. You can see them in the images below.
Passengers will be able to assume virtually any seating or resting position when traveling in a fully autonomous vehicle in the future, which will require a completely new operating and display concept. It is supplied by infotainment specialist Harman. The new concept uses the manufacturer's all-new next-generation scalable infotainment platform, which is based on HTML5 and provides comprehensive protection against hacker attacks. In the "XchangE" it offers numerous functions for navigation, entertainment, assistance and services that are displayed on a total of four screens. A 1.2-meter-wide display strip in the steering-wheel support provides important information in wide-screen format. A 32-inch 4K monitor in the rear transforms the "XchangE" into a highly comfortable on-demand UHD movie theatre on wheels. It is controlled with simple gestures.
Of course the "XchangE" is also fully networked with the outside world. The in-car consolidation of real-time sensor data that is crucial for "Car2X" communications is handled by the infotainment system, which communicates with the Cloud via an integrated LTE module. Deutsche Telekom and its fast LTE network provide the secure data transmission. All incoming vehicle data – from the Harman infotainment system and other vehicle systems – are compiled and analyzed on a standardized "Business-to-Car" platform of Deutsche Telekom. The intelligent links to numerous other online data sources thus create travel-specific Cloud services such as warning messages or recommendations on route and driving profiles, which are available to all road users in real time. The more vehicles and service providers are networked via the manufacturer-independent "Business-to-Car" platform, the more everyone traveling by car benefits from added safety and convenience.
An intelligent access control system that uses RFID technology to identify the authorized driver or drivers switches on the essential functions of the "XchangE". It comes from the parts portfolio of forklift manufacturer Linde Material Handling. As on the company's forklifts and other materials handling equipment, the technical signals from the sensors and the vehicle control system are compiled by the "connect:" data-logging unit and transmitted continuously to the Cloud via the T network. The software of the "connect:" unit makes it possible to analyze all operating data and generate reports, for example for fleet operators.

The idea of someone who before he can begin, first has to make himself: someone who is stuck in the lumber-room of preparation.A theatre director who has to create everything from scratch, he even has to father the actors. A visitor is denied admittance on the grounds that the director is engaged in important theatre business. What is it? He is changing the nappies on a future actor.
.......In the Great Account of my life,it is still reckoned as if my life were first beginning tomorrow,and in the meantime it is all over with me.In Kafka, there is a kind of induction into the world, a 'primal baptism' which somehow he has missed, and this oversight, this failure to assume full existence, is irreversible and ongoing. "Still unborn and compelled to walk the streets." Or, famously, "My life is a hesitation before birth".
There are other writers who are similarly, creatures of the anteroom, waiting behind the door, inhabiting a kind of pre-life. There is, for example, something very similar thing in Schulz:
There are things that cannot ever occur with any precision. ... They are merely trying to occur, they are checking whether the ground of reality can carry them. And they quickly withdraw, fearing to lose their integrity in the frailty of realisation.
We are dealing with an aesthetic of failure, in which the very inability to acheive embodiment is embodied in a text.

Pupils cook up a treat for MasterChef competition
Pupils demonstrated their creative cooking skills as they took part in the final of the school's MasterChef competition.
Nine pupils took part in the final after making it through the heats and it was second year pupil Oliver Ensor-Adams who secured the top prize.
Oliver delighted the judging panel, which included the Head Chef from Alderley Edge restaurant The Grill on the Edge, with his main course of steak with mustard sauce and sweet potato and orange mash followed by banana and honey galettes with sugar decorations.
He was awarded a £100 voucher for the restaurant which served his dish as a special the weekend after the final.
The runner up prize went to Matthew Byle who made roasted salmon steak with sweet chilli jam served with stir fried vegetables followed by lemon curd meringue roulade with pistachio
Lucy Snell won the Middle School trophy thanks to her starter of halloumi cheese and humus dip followed by maple and balsamic glazed lamb chops with mint, roasted almonds, roast vine tomatoes and roast potatoes.
The other finalists were Bella Elms, Natalie Bennett, Sam Hall, Emilia Monks, Liam Oakes and Rebecca Atkinson.
Well done to everyone who took part – every dish looked amazing!

Day 5 of the foot surgery recovery and things are going pretty well.
My dear hubby has become a right proper man-servant/nurse and has made sure I have liquids, pain meds, naps and help getting around and answering the phone. He has been referring new clients to my other sewing friends and taking messages on the phone. He has been doing all the cooking and cleaning and in this process he has discovered that his housekeeping knowledge base was lacking a little. He asked if I would tutor him in some basic things like:
How to make an omelet with fillings ( to flip or not and when is it done)
How to make iced tea with tea bags (how many bags in 2 quart pitcher)
How to run a load of wash (settings and detergent)
How to run the dryer (what settings)
How to chop Chinese cabbage (how long to cook)
How to make low-carb waffle batter for his latest purchase of a new flip-over waffle maker
He says he never realized how much he didn't know since I was doing these things and he has mastered all the tips and tricks this week except I forgot to mention that after drying a load of towels and then a load of sheets and a load of clothes the lint screen must be cleared. As soon as I reached inside the dryer to get my nice warm pajamas I realized I had forgotten this valuable lesson. The amount of lint was enough to construct a Pomeranian puppy!
It is certainly not easy being an active seamstress and being restricted to sitting on your sofa with your leg elevated for 72 hours with ice packs. Here I am in my sewing room with the TV, laptop and most of my machines just sitting there not in use. Here is what I look at all day:
My other sewing room aka "the annex" is filled with projects all cut out and waiting in Ziploc bags. Here is what I am thinking about working on next:
The fabric is from JoAnn's and as they only had 2 yards it will be a shorter tunic version for now. The fabric is a bit sheer so the bodice will need a lining of some sort.
Other things I have managed to hand baste this week are some Emma Seabrook knit tops and a pair of Coni Crawford cropped pants (Butterick 5504) with front pockets and center front seams on the legs.
Other thoughts this week have been how to get rid of an extension table that I got by mistake when purchasing my Janome commercial machine. The previous owner said she would include it in the price and then when it arrived it didn't fit any other machine I had. Doing some investigation on the internet I found out it is a Babylock Ellageo extension table. Normally they sell for around $100 with a little hoop grip for quilting but she must have kept that for herself. If anyone knows of someone who would like to buy this little puppy for $40 please let me know. I will ship anywhere once I find out the UPS postage.
For those of you who love blogs and new patterns, this week "3 Hours past the Edge of the World" blog features a cool new pattern loosely based on a vintage wrap top. Check out her tutorials and great photos and links to followers who make her garments and love them.
Wishing all of you a super week filled with great sewing and maybe do a little skipping for me!

5 Easy Ways to Detox on a Daily Basis
You don't need to follow a strict juice cleanse or feel deprived for days in order to detox. You can incorporate simple strategies into your everyday life that will regulate your body, help eliminate toxins and waste, increase your energy, and aid in weight loss efforts. Here are five doable detox tips that will help you look and feel your very best.
1. Start your day with warm water and lemon
Coffee shouldn't be your first beverage of the day; rather, a glass of warm water and lemon should be the first thing you reach for upon waking. Because your body fasts throughout the night, you wake up dehydrated each morning, regardless of how much water you drank the night before, according to Christy LeMire Wellness.
Your morning dehydration is easily remedied with a glass of water and lemon, which helps your body cleanse itself of toxins from the previous day while helping you feel refreshed and energized for the day ahead, Christy LeMire Wellness explains.
It's important to include lemon in this morning ritual because it helps balance your body's pH, stimulates digestion, and helps your liver to cleanse, states Mind Body Green. If you get in the habit of setting a bottle of lemon water by your bed each night, you'll have no problem completing this detox tip each day.
2. Breathe deeply
Breathing is something that you already do multiple times a day. But in order to use your breathing as a way to detox, you need to focus on breathing as deeply as you can. Dr. Frank Lipman says that deep breathing keeps your lungs flexible and allows them to get rid of trapped particles and pollutants you inhale throughout the day. In addition, Natural News notes that deep breathing exercises stimulate your nervous system and increase oxygen flow, which burns fat, speeds up the metabolism, and helps eliminate waste from the body.
Because many of us take quick, shallow breaths throughout the day, it might take a while to get used to this tip. First, find a relaxing place to sit. Then close your eyes and begin breathing in deeply through your nose, suggests The Global Healing Center. Count to five, inhaling the entire time, until your lungs and stomach feel like they're fully inflated. Hold your breath for several seconds, and then slowly exhale while counting to five. The Global Healing Center suggests repeating this breathing exercise nine times each day. Not only does this help you cleanse, but it's also a great stress reliever!
3. Sweat
Hitting the gym is a great way to increase your energy and eliminate toxins. CNCA Health explains that your skin is a major elimination organ that expels toxins from your body each time you sweat. Mercola.com notes that in addition to expelling toxins, sweating also helps kill viruses and bacteria that can't survive in temperatures above 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit . Furthermore, it helps cleanse your pores, which eliminates blackheads and acne.
Interestingly, a study published in the Journal of Environmental and Public Health discovered that toxins, such as arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury, are excreted through your skin each time you sweat. It also found that a sauna-induced sweat is a therapeutic way to increase the elimination of toxic trace metals. This means that if your gym has a sauna or steam room, you should take full advantage. PopSugar recommends spending a little time in either facility after working out to ensure your skin is expelling as many toxins as possible.
4. Stay hydrated
Drinking plenty of water, vegetable and fruit juices, and tea will ensure your body is detoxing on a daily basis. Livestrong explains that drinking vegetable juices, such as carrot, beet, and celery, can help flush toxins from your liver. In addition, fruit juices, including cranberry, pomegranate, and blueberry, enhance your kidney functions. Livestrong adds that cranberries are high in quinine, which converts to hippuric acid and assists your liver in eliminating toxins.
According to Bembu, when you drink water, it flushes and cleanses your body and organs of toxins while regulating your bowel movements. Finally, the Global Healing Center says that green tea is a rich source of catechins, an antioxidant that assists your liver and improves its functions. Add some variety throughout the day by drinking a wide assortment of healthy juices, water, and tea. It'll cleanse your body and boost your energy!
5. Eat plenty of fiber
Eating an apple a day won't just keep the doctor away; it'll also help you detox. Mind Body Green explains that soluble fiber from fruits and vegetables binds to toxins residing in your gut and helps flush them out when you have a bowel movement. Healthy and Natural World notes that fiber also regulates your digestive system, ensuring you have toxin-eliminating bowel movements on a regular basis.
Mind Body Green encourages you to purchase organic versions of high-fiber produce whenever possible. This way, you aren't consuming the very toxins you're trying to eliminate. Livestrong suggests aiming for 20 to 35 grams of fiber each day, noting that good soluble-fiber food sources include apples, oranges, carrots, oatmeal, barley, and legumes.

Android Is Soaring, So Why Are Google Shares Sinking?
Part of the problem is that investors are skeptical about what Android means to Google's financial future. Google has seen a slowdown in the growth of its core search business. It doesn't have much to show for its stream of M&A deals, nor from products like Google Maps, Gmail or Google Apps. Its expansion into China has stalled due to trouble with the government in Beijing and the strength of local search engine Baidu (BIDU). Its annual revenue run rate is $34 billion, compared to $29 billion for the 2010 calendar year. And while Microsoft's (MSFT) search alliance with Yahoo (YHOO) is still a distant second in terms of U.S. market share, the world's largest software company seems bound and determined to pick up some portion of Google's customer base.
Many investors are also concerned about Google founder Sergey Brin replacing Eric Schmidt as CEO. There's a great deal of uncertainty about whether either man holds the key to unlocking Google's next big revenue-creating opportunity.
What is certain is that, despite its extraordinary adoption rate, Android hasn't impressed Wall Street.

Just a feedback.
When we click on the extension and press the "normal"
Enter, the login fields are filled just fine.
But if it's the

Hey @luizrocha! Thanks for pointing this out. One of my coworkers recently reported this to us, so we're working on a fix as we speak. Keep an eye on the 1Password X release notes because we'll document it there once the issue is fully resolved.
