Great for coconut chocolate
7 people found the following review helpful
Posted by Reviewer3181965 From Norway on Jun 24, 2012

I used this product to make coconut chocolate; it turned out great! Good quality and taste. Some of the negative reviews concern bitter taste. Raw cocoa powder is bitter. Some kind of sweetener is required to make it more palatable.
Dark as a Cup of Coffee Raw Chocolate

Posted by wholefoods From Korea, Republic of on Aug 13, 2012

I bought a bag of this product intending to use it as a sweet chocolate cocoa mix, like the kind grandma used to make. When I put the powder into a coffee mug and stirred it, it ended up tasting more like a cup of dark coffee. Not that that is a bad thing. There isn't anything sweet about this product. It is very dark tasting and bitter. At first I couldn't get used to the taste. Now, I drink a cup or two a day at work in place of coffee. I appreciate that this product is filled with iron, magnesium, protein, fiber, healthy fats, and a host of antioxidants. It also makes me feel calm after drinking a cup, probably a combination of the caffeine and other components of the raw cacoa. Also, because Navitas specializes in whole foods products, including cacoa in all its manifestations, I trust the quality. Highly recommended!

I have been using this product for several months. It is extremely effective at controlling my hypertension. I haven't had to use statins forr several years now. Before treatment with statins, my blood pressure was somewhere around 140/90. The best I was able to achieve using statin prescription medicine was around 130/90. My blood pressure levels are now consistently around 120/80 using the raw cacao powder.

Tried to make hot chocolate with this... It was so delicious... so euphoric... What I did was to mix two table spoons with this powder, two equal parts with coconut crystals, and then filled up the cup with warm milk... stirred it... and there I was: in Chocolate Heaven!

The following cars represent the most technically advanced available.
Inexpensive yet high-performing, the 2014 Ford Fiesta ST rewards people who enjoy driving, while cabin electronics support all those mundane tasks that need doing when not on a twisty back road.
In Charleston, S.C. Lisa Hoffman gave up one precious thing in order to be more sure of getting another. She moved up two places in the iPhone line. For deeply philosophical reasons.
The new 2014 Ford Fiesta ST fits in the category of small, efficient, high-tech cars. But does it have the guts to make it worth the $26,000 price tag?
A very rewarding car to drive, the 2013 Ford Focus ST will satisfy enthusiasts on weekend runs and the daily commute, but the cabin tech is a mixed bag, with the excellence of Sync offset by the navigation system interface.
How does the Ford Fiesta ST stack up against its rivals?
With more power and tighter turning than the standard Fiesta, the Fiesta ST is an incredible thrill ride.

The current generation Ford Fiesta is an ace little car, the ST version...? It's one of the best hot hatches out there.

For collective purposes, the Securities and Exchange Commission has to act fast, because we are all losing from such fraudulent practices. In fact, the market, not as free and fairly competitive as it could be optimally, is unable to deliver the best outcome possible through a right allocation of resources, because of imperfect distribution of information. Therefore, demand is affected and artificially lower, so the surpluses for the society are lower than normally possible. This means that losers of such a fraud are not only the competition, but all of us, being deprived of benefits from the legit exchange. In conclusion, let's fight for a freer market, so we can all be winners.
I wonder how long it will take before "High Frequency Trading" is defined as "Insider Dealing"? Seems blindingly obvious to me.
i don't think there's a limit to the ability of chasing one's own tail, only the frequency (and number of cycles) goes up.
According to Wikipedia, the story about Rothschild using a pigeon never happened. It originated in an 1864 anti-semitic pamphlet.

MTA students brighten smiles
Date: April 23, 2009
by: Jen Blanco
LAKEWOOD RANCH — Five-year-old Yoni Morales was all smiles as he reached into a gift bag for his new Spiderman toothbrush.
Through a collaborative effort, he and more than 20 other students at McNeal Elementary School received much-needed dental care April 15 at the Richard T. Conard M.D. Medical and Dental Building at Manatee
Technical Institute's East Campus.
Under the supervision of Lakewood Ranch Dental's Dr. Peter Masterson, students in Manatee Technical Institute's Dental Assisting Program provided each child with a dental cleaning, polishing, fluoride treatment and X-rays. Masterson checked over each child, filled out forms and provided possible referrals about any additional dental care needed.
"Anytime you spend time with kids, it's fun," Masterson said. "It's nice to know a group of people is doing something to help our community and hopefully make it better in the end."
The partnership with MTI is the culmination of a months-long effort by East County school nurses to provide dental care to students with little to no access to dental care. Last fall, Cheryl Stuart, a nurse at McNeal and Braden River elementary schools, began soliciting the help of local dentists to provide care for her students, many of whom had severe tooth decay.
Creekwood Dental provided free care to about 25 students in February as part of the American Dental Association's Give Kids a Smile Day, and at that time, the partnership with MTI had yet to be solidified.
With the assistance of Dr. Masterson, everything came together.
"The hope is that this will swell into something where the students can get dental care," Stuart said. "We're hoping (MTI) can do the cleaning and immediate care and refer them to dentists for bigger problems. (These families) can't get this anywhere else for $10."
Although the partnership is one between public schools, MTI and local dentists, it could not have been accomplished without help from members of the business community, Stuart said.
Soila Abrams and Janet Mendoza, community health workers for the Tillman Full Service Center, transported families who lacked transportation to and from MTI.
McNeal dad William Vasquez, a representative for Proctor & Gamble's Professional Oral Health Division, and East County businessman Hugo Nunez, owner of Mi Pueblo restaurant, provided translation services as well as dental supplies. Vasquez donated toothbrushes, toothpaste, floss and other dental products to the children and to MTI, and Nunez provided each child with a gift bag stuffed with an electric toothbrush and other items.
"I was an immigrant to at one time," Nunez said with soft smile. "And, I really enjoy the kids."
So did MTI's Dental Assisting Program students, who normally do not get to work on children. Program Director Kimberly Bland said the experience was invaluable for her students.
"We know of the community's need," Bland said. "That was one of the main reasons we wanted to do this. Secondly, we want our students to be exposed to public need. We're trying to get a feel for what needs to be done."
Organizers are not sure how often children will be able to receive dental care through the partnership with MTI, but Bland said she hopes to offer the service at least twice a year. Availability will depend largely on the support from the local dental community because a dentist must be present for MTI students to work on patients.
No other dentists have offered their services at this time, Stuart said.
The program is intended for children whose families cannot afford dental care. Anyone wishing to contribute or seeking more information should contact Sue Troxler at 751-6550.

First DARE Contest Winner Encourages Fellow Students at Kiwanis Recognition
DARE Essay Winners at Kiwanis Club
Print Story
Published: 5/20/2013 4:00 pm
Updated: 5/20/2013 4:03 pm
(WDEF) Back in 2006, April Dominguez was the first winner of the Whitfield County DARE Essay Contest to be honored by the Kiwanis Club of Dalton.
Now a senior at Southeast Whitfield High School, Dominguez returned to the eighth annual recognition ceremony at the Northwest Georgia Trade and Convention Center on May 13 to talk about how the DARE program has affected her life.
"I don't know what I can tell you guys that DARE hasn't already taught you," she said, "but I guess I'll just start off by saying that peer pressure is very real and people that you thought were your friends are going to try to pressure you into doing things that you don't want to do. You might lose friends and they're going to try to ridicule you and call you a baby for not doing what others are doing.
"I think that's what DARE taught me," Dominguez said, "not just the ability to say no but I think it was more of the ability to deal with the aftermath of saying no, how to deal with people trying to ridicule you for making the right choice."
DARE taught her to be courageous in the choices she makes, Dominguez said. "Since being in high school, I've been given the opportunity to try drugs, and every single time I've stood my ground and now whenever I say no, nobody laughs because they know that's not one of my priorities. They know that's not what I'm about so they don't even offer me it anymore."
She urged the fifth-grade essay winners being honored at the program not to let peer pressure affect their decisions. "Whatever you're doing, if you believe that it's the right choice, then it's the right choice," she said. "Don't be afraid and speak your mind. Stand up firmly in what you think is right."
Temptations will be there, she said, "and you guys have learned tons of ways to say no, so use every single weapon that you possibly can. There are so many adults who are willing to help you if you do need help. It's going to be tough, you might slip once or twice, but don't forget who you are, and don't change for anyone because it's not worth it. So be proud in you and be proud in the choices that you make every single day.
"I think DARE has taught you guys just about everything that you need to know," Dominguez said. "It helped me to get to where I am today, graduating with honors and attending the University of Georgia this fall. I know the pressures are going to build in college, but I think that DARE has taught me to be ready to accept whatever comes my way. So I wish you guys all the best, and I hope you take what you learned in this program to heart and use it in the future because it's going to come in handy."
The 13 winners of this year's DARE Essay Contest were recognized during the program, including Gissel Guzman of Cedar Ridge Elementary, overall winner and recipient of a plaque and $100; Amelia McClure, Beaverdale Elementary, second place and recipient of a plaque and $50; and Crystal Toche, Antioch Elementary, third place and recipient of a plaque and $20.
Also recognized were winners from each of the county's other elementary schools, including Coda Voyles - Cohutta, Carly Edwards - Varnell, Mallory McAllister - Pleasant Grove, Tyson Haley - New Hope, Samantha Samano - Valley Point, Patton Pickard – Dawnville, Reyna Fraire – Dug Gap, Olivia Mauldin – Westside, Kate Burton – Tunnel Hill, and Sandra Gudino – Eastside.
District Attorney Bert Poston, a member of the Kiwanis Club who has served as emcee for all eight honors programs, praised the students for their efforts on the winning essays.
"This program is first and foremost about you students that have won the essay contest at your school and are here today," he said. "We want you to know how very proud we are of all of you. You have shown that you paid attention during the DARE program and actually learned from it."
He also praised the parents who attended the recognition ceremony. "These kids couldn't do it without your support," Poston told them, "and I see it in the district attorney's office that the kids we deal with and the adults that we deal with generally come from homes that don't have that kind of support. That support is so important for these kids, and we're so glad that you're behind them and that you're here today. Likewise with the teachers, the impact that you have on these kids is tremendous. We really appreciate you taking your time out today – the principals and others with the school system that are also here."
Sheriff Scott Chitwood thanked the school administrators for allowing the sheriff's office to hold the DARE program each year since 1987, noting that he must have permission from the schools to teach DARE.
"We always say at our DARE graduation that if we changed the life of one person, one student, then we've made a difference," he said. "When we attend programs like this where the Kiwanis Club takes the time to set aside one program each year to recognize the outstanding work of the school system and these fine students, it brightens our day."
DARE instructors Tammy Silvers and Darlene Roberts presented each of the 13 winners with certificates of recognition. Also attending the program was Lt. Wayne Mathis, who is in charge of the DARE program.
"You're the top 13 out of just over a thousand students that went through this program," Silvers said, "so you're the cream of the crop. You're the ones that others are going to be looking at to make those good choices and to make that decision for staying drug free. You're that role model, and you have to make that stand to stay drug free from now on."
Roberts pointed out that the students had to get up in front of their class and read their essays to make a promise to stay drug free and violence free.
"I would not have wanted to judge any of these essays, much less pick the top three out of this 13," she said. "You guys truly are the cream of the crop. We are so very proud of you for your efforts and for your accomplishments."
This year, millions of school children around the world will benefit from DARE (Drug Abuse Resistance Education), which gives kids the skills they need to avoid involvement in drugs, gangs, and violence.
DARE was founded in 1983 in Los Angeles and has proven so successful that it is now being implemented in 75 percent of the nation's school districts and in more than 43 countries around the world.
DARE is a law enforcement officer-led series of classroom lessons that teaches children from kindergarten through middle school how to resist peer pressure and live productive drug- and violence-free lives.
The winning essay in the eighth annual DARE Essay Contest, written by Gissel Guzman, Miss Raines' class, Cedar Ridge Elementary School, follows:
My D.A.R.E. Essay
Hello! My name is Gissel, and through these past weeks of D.A.R.E., I've learned about many things! Drugs, communication, bullying, and the list goes on. I appreciate Mrs. Silvers for teaching us about things we should avoid and what we shouldn't. I am now going to share my experience with you.
My first Thursday with Mrs. Silvers was magnificent. The first thing she taught us was the Decision Making Model. Once everybody got the hang of it, we then used it a bunch of times to solve problems. I thought the Decision Making Model was an easy way to solve problems, so I used it in some of my problems. I know you might be pondering what the Decision Making Model stands for; it stands for define, assess, respond, and evaluate. Define is when you describe the problem or challenge. Assess is when you think about how many choices you have. Respond is when you respond or make a choice. Last but not least, you Evaluate; you review your decision.
I'm not going to tell you what we did every Thursday, but I will talk about it quickly. Next, we talked about drugs and resistance strategies. Mrs. Silvers taught us really cool facts about drugs. I'm going to tell three facts:
1.Mixing alcohol with medicine is dangerous;
2.Alcohol is illegal for anyone under the age of 21;
3.There are more than 200 chemicals in cigarette smoke.
In the resistance strategies lesson, we learned how to avoid the situation, strength, walking away, saying no, or giving an excuse. I think these are magnificent strategies.
Mrs. Silvers taught us about peer pressure, stress, and pressure. Peer pressure is when people your age try to get you to do something. Pressure is a force or influence that acts on you to do something. Stress is any strain, pressure, or excitement felt about a situation or an event.
Next, Mrs. Silvers taught us about communication styles. Here they are:
1.Confident: acting in any way while respecting others;
2.Unsure: being uncertain or unwilling to stand up for yourself;
3.Demanding: acting in a way that is hostile; attacking others without regard for their feelings.
Mrs. Silvers said the best way is "confident," because you are respecting others.
Next, I'll talk about nonverbal communication, effective listening, and empathy. Nonverbal communication is physical actions or body language that goes with what we are saying. Effective listening is showing the other person through verbal and nonverbal communication that you are paying attention. Last but not least, empathy is about understanding how other people feel.
Mrs. Silvers talked to us about bullying and bystanders. Bullying is an aggressive or unwanted behavior used again and again to isolate, harm, or control another person. A bystander is someone who witnesses bullying and who has an opportunity to help.
Next, I'll talk about tattling and telling. Tattling is when you want to get someone in trouble for a harmless behavior. Telling is providing information to a trusted adult to help someone or keep them safe.
Do you know what a good citizen is? Well, a good citizen is someone who acts responsibly by helping someone who is in need.
Do you have a help network? Do you even know what a help network is? A help network is a person or a group you can call on for advice, help, encouragement, or guidance.
What is a fact? Well, a fact is something that can be proven to be true. A risk is taking a chance!
Last, "I, Gissel Guzman, pledge to never take drugs nor do bullying." Thanks for listening!

Overlay talk:Flora
--JF 14:03, 25 July 2011 (MDT)
I think that the git add and git commit commands that are listed in the release section are confusing. Adding files and committing is done after creating a new feature/hotfix, and before finishing it. Am I right? Here is the "flow" I used for my new feature :
- git-flow feature start <package-name>
- adding/editing folders/files
- git add <folder-name>
- git commit -m 'message'
- git-flow feature finish <package-name>
- git-flow release start <package-name>
- <Nothing?>
- git-flow release finish <package-name>
I think that the add/commit commands should be removed from the release explanation (or at least moved between the start and finish commands), and added when features and hotfixes are explained.
--golodhrim 15:04, 08/07/2011 (CEST)
already taken care of in the Daily work section :) Thanks for the hint...
[edit] Using flora as an overlay
--JF 10:44, 11 August 2011 (MDT)
For now, packages in flora that override Portage's package are not merged. This is the reason why one could want to use flora as an overlay until this feature is added.
[edit] making flora a pure overlay
To make flora a only overlay just execute the following two commands, we assume use use /root/.git as a folder to store your overlays in:
| $ cd /root/.git
$ git clone git://github.com/funtoo/flora.git
[edit] the overlay thing
Let's say that you have a flora clone into /root/.git/flora. The following steps will set up flora as an overlay.
|$ echo 'PORTDIR_OVERLAY="${PORTDIR_OVERLAY} /root/.git/flora"' >> /etc/make.conf
Now you're done!
--Init 6 01:14, 23 August 2011 (MDT)
Now flora available from layman:
$ layman -L | grep flora
* flora [Git ] (git://github.com/funtoo/flora.git...)

Fort Fuel is online, and fueled by students
Thursday, December 05, 2013
Although Haylee Knippel won't be turning her tassel for another two years, her dream career has already begun.
"I just really want to be a news anchor," says the sophomore from Albuquerque.
And that's exactly what she's doing on Fort Fuel, FLC's recently launched web-based campus news show. The show, developed as part of the Communications practicum course, is filmed weekly in the studio in the Ballantine Media Center, located in the Student Union.
Common Reading Experience explores legacy of nuclear weapons
Monday, September 30, 2013
War, nuclear weapons, toxic waste, government cover-ups, and family secrets – these are difficult topics to tackle. Which is exactly why Full Body Burden, by Kristen Iversen, is this year's choice for the Fort Lewis College Common Reading Experience: because it asks hard questions and doesn't offer easy answers. And so the book inspires reflection, analysis, and discussion.

Jaworek third-graders' great bedtime story
Scholastic Reading Club in cooperation with the Pajama Program collected pajamas again this year to distribute with books to disadvantaged children ages birth through 17 to help make their winter a little warmer. The Pajama Project coordinates the PJ donations, and Scholastic donates a book for every pajama donated. Classes were invited to participate in the project, and Jaworek's third-graders took the invitation to heart.
The students and staff donated a whopping 122 pajama sets in just three weeks. The donations will be used locally, in the metro west area, which adds to the pride and ownership everyone has in the project.
The teachers have taken the project an academic step farther: They created a math activity about it. A bulletin board in the third-grade hallway sports a graph in which each pajama cut-out equals a certain number of pajamas donated. Students had to analyze the board and complete a worksheet about the pictograph as part of their math graphing unit.
On Dec. 10, the last day of the project, the Jaworek students had a real pajama party to celebrate. Third-grade students and teachers spent the school day in their winter jammies, a visual reminder of how a group of people can make a difference.

About AMA Pro Road Racing
GEICO Motorcycle AMA Pro Road Racing is the premier motorcycle road racing series in North America and is universally regarded as one of the most competitive road racing organizations in the world. The 2013 schedule includes rounds on many of the country's finest road courses.
The Series is comprised of four production-based classes: AMA Pro National Guard SuperBike, AMA Pro GoPro Daytona SportBike, AMA Pro Motorcycle-Superstore.com SuperSport and the AMA Pro Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson Series. The performance characteristics of the motorcycles raced in each division are configured with the intent of providing platforms for riders to compete and hone their skills as they climb the ladder to the premier AMA Pro National Guard SuperBike division.
National Guard SuperBike continues a motorcycle racing legend that began in 1976 and features fast, powerful, large-displacement motorcycles based on a rule set that allows for a variety of performance modifications. Traditionally considered a 1000cc class, the rule structure has been updated to provide a platform for additional big-bore motorcycles to compete within the same performance envelope. Nine different brands were represented on the SuperBike grids in 2012: Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki, Honda, BMW, Buell, EBR, KTM and Ducati.
The carefully designed rule package for GoPro Daytona SportBike provides a platform for motorcycles with different engine configurations to compete on even ground and since the class debuted in 2009, it has become known for extremely close racing and a great depth of field. Due to the parity in performance, it is not uncommon to see packs of 10 motorcycles from five or more different brands battling for the lead in every turn. GoPro Daytona SportBike is also the featured class in America's premier endurance motorcycle road race, the DAYTONA 200.
Motorcycle-Superstore.com SuperSport is the proving ground for AMA Pro's up-and-coming motorcycle talent. The rules allow riders to select from the same diverse set of machines that are eligible for competition in Daytona SportBike, but with fewer modifications. The events on the season's schedule are divided into two divisions, East and West. To keep travel and entry costs down for privateers, a rider only gains points toward a divisional championship for finishing positions they achieve in their declared division. At the end of the year, one of the two divisional champs will be declared the SuperSport National Champion, based on their on-track performance relative to each other. A special award highlighting the younger SuperSport riders is given to the highest-points-scoring 16- to 21-year-old rider.
The Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson Series made its debut halfway through the 2010 season, bringing with it the return of one of the most evocative names in motorcycling: Harley-Davidson. Using the Harley-Davidson XR1200 modified with a specially-prepared parts-and-accessories kit from famed motorcycle performance tuner Vance & Hines, riders can race the big twins on the national stage in a cost-contained manner that emphasizes rider skill.
On a typical event weekend, each of GEICO Motorcycle AMA Pro Road Racing's three sport-performance classes, AMA Pro National Guard SuperBike, AMA Pro GoPro Daytona SportBike and AMA Pro Motorcycle-Superstore.com SuperSport, have their first practice and basic qualifying sessions on Friday afternoon. Grids are set following Saturday morning's final qualifying session, and each class is featured in sprint races on both Saturday and Sunday afternoons. The AMA Pro Vance & Hines Harley-Davidson Series follows a similar format, but the big Harley-Davidson twins have just one practice session and one qualifying session on Saturday afternoon before battling it out in a single sprint race on Sunday afternoon.
In addition to watching the thrilling on-track action, fans are invited into the GEICO Motorcycle AMA Pro Road Racing paddock and garage areas to meet the stars of the sport and to watch as the crew chiefs and mechanics work on the machines.
Most GEICO Motorcycle AMA Pro Road Racing events feature grid walks during opening ceremonies before the races on Saturday and Sunday. Fans can casually stroll on the surface of some of America's finest race tracks while getting autographs, talking with riders and viewing race-prepped motorcycles positioned along the pit wall.
Track walks are also offered at select venues on the schedule, giving fans an opportunity to get up close and personal with AMA Pro riders as they walk the circuit following a day of competition. Event promoters further add to the experience by providing additional options for the fan agenda, including fan parties, vendor areas, manufacturer demo rides, motocross and BMX stunt exhibitions, street stunt riders, live music, fireworks and more.

good vibe for a good place – Ok, I am older....like over 50. The first time I went into this store was with my then boyfriend, who is now my husband. We actually walked around (a little bit nervously at first), like we were in a candy store, just viewing all the toys and artifacts. Some were disturbing, but I thought "to each their own". I didn't give it 5 stars, because they don't have EVERYTHING!!, but the atmosphere is light, congenial, the staff are helpful, and we actually had fun.
At one point I was looking at something in one part of the store and my husband, was over near another display giggling with a complete stranger, a young woman. I walked over and they had found small vibrators in the guise of winnie the pooh, and hello kitty! I wished I had bought them now, because the last time I went back, they no longer carry these and I thought they are great little gag gifts or gifts for the collector!
Anyhow, to make a long story short, my husband and I love this store, and we always visit when we visit san francisco......its like a pilgrimage.
if you have ever been afraid to enter, don't be, its an easy place to hang out in.
Sexuality doesn't have to be sleazy, unless you like it that way! – I remember as a teenager hearing about this cooperative place called Good Vibrations, where women, men, couples, groups, etc were invited to embrace sexuality, learn about their bodies without judgment and best of all buy toys that won't fall apart in an environment thats not sleazy! Visiting a goodvibes store is like visiting a museum of sexuality, they have displays of antique vibrators, new toys that you can touch and manipulate and educators who are a wealth of information on sexuality at your fingertips. Visiting them can make a fabulous addition to a date night or an even better girls night out!
Legendary, woman-owned shop in the Mission offers adult toys, sexual health workshops and more in a "sex-positive" atmosphere. – In Short
Behind clouded glass doors, shoppers are greeted by a giant poster with the store's mission statement and brief history. Beyond the sign lies a wide-open clean and tasteful space, which holds sex toys, erotic books and videos, bondage and fetish gear and safe sex supplies. Categorical signs mark each section, making these products easy to find. The shop's knowledgeable staff and goal of promoting sexual health and pleasure has gained it both credibility and status on a national scale.

Barry Sheene never raced any Ducati motorcycle, let alone a Monster. So quite why the great man was the inspiration for this retro-themed Monster is anyone's guess. But it's hard to deny that it looks great anyway. Originally a modern 916-powered Monster S4, the motorcycle has been transported back in time, with 1970's style details such as the braced tubular ...

What is Metabolism and How Does It Affect Weight?
Metabolism is one of the organic processes that are carried out by the body without our conscious awareness. It is metabolism that transforms a larva into an adult. It is also one of the processes that are necessary to maintain life.
Metabolism is normally divided into two categories:
- Catabolism, which breaks down large molecules to harvest energy.
- Anabolism, which is a process of synthesis of simple substances to form complex substances such as tissues.
The fairly complex process of metabolism plays an extremely crucial role in maintaining health. In simple words, metabolism dictates the amount of energy that is burnt by the body to maintain itself. It is also the process that continuously burns calories irrespective of what you are doing – be it sleeping, eating, drinking, working or reading a book.
Metabolism is normally dependent upon the constitution of the body. Aspects like muscle to fat proportions affect overall metabolism. This means that two people with the same body weight and height can have different metabolic rates if one has built muscles by exercising and the other has more fat than muscle due to lack of exercise. The body of the person who has more muscle uses more calories for sustenance.
A normal body starts to lose muscle after the age of 30. A sedentary lifestyle, lack of exercise and consumption of the same amount of calories after thirty years of age can result in a conversion from muscle to fat. This is mainly due to the fact that the metabolism slows down due to age and subsequently due to a lack of muscle in the body.
On the other hand, if you exercise regularly, the metabolism is not likely to slow down even after the age of thirty. This is mainly because an exercised body does not lose muscle weight too easily and therefore remains at a higher metabolism. This is also the primary reason that it is always advised that crash diets that tell you how to naturally lose weight fast without emphasizing the need for exercise are not sound.
As is obvious now, there is a strong connection between metabolism and weight loss. No amount of carbohydrate limitation or diets that are based on genuine or perceived weight loss properties of any one food item will lead to a permanent reduction of weight. All healthy weight loss plans must necessarily be based on maintaining a healthy metabolic rate. There is no specific diet that that can do that effectively on its own. It must be accompanied by exercise to properly metabolism.References:

NewsPress Release: 10/19/01
BRATTLEBORO, VT - The Marlboro College Technology Center and the School for International Training's Teacher Knowledge Project are collaborating to offer a course for high-school teachers to familiarize them with the integration of online technologies and modern teaching methods.
During six Monday afternoon seminars that began September 17 and continue through May 2002, teachers are learning to develop an online component for courses to be taught during the next academic year, to use simple site templates to integrate materials and activities using the Web, to base their Internet projects on what they already know and learn how to transfer it to an online environment, and to work with other teachers and co-facilitators as they develop and implement the online components of their course.
Participants include 10 teachers -- one from Leland and Gray Union High School and nine from Brattleboro Union High School. The program, which offers two graduate-level credits, is being co-facilitated by Maggie Cassidy, Frank Klucken, and Patrick Morgan.
Cassidy has been a teacher at BUHS for 24 years. She co-facilitates reflective professional development for teachers through the Teacher Knowledge Project at SIT.
Klucken, a 1998 graduate of Marlboro's Teaching with Internet Technologies master's program, is an assistant professor of mathematics at Landmark College. He has extensive experience providing professional development in technology supported education.
Moran teaches graduate courses in teacher education and professional development at SIT, where he has been on the faculty since 1977. He also facilitates seminars in the Teacher Knowledge Program.
Program participants and facilitators are pleased with the collaboration of two higher education institutions working with two local high schools for the purpose of enhancing knowledge of and expertise with Internet technologies.
For more information, call Brian Schroeder at the Teacher Knowledge Project at (802) 258-3340 or Mary Greene at the Marlboro College Technology Center at (802) 258-9210.

Generic Name: granisetron (transdermal) (gra NIS e tron)
Brand Name: Sancuso
What is transdermal granisetron?
Granisetron blocks the actions of chemicals in the body that may cause nausea and vomiting.
Granisetron transdermal (skin patch) is used to prevent nausea and vomiting caused by cancer chemotherapy.
Granisetron may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.
What is the most important information I should know about transdermal granisetron?
You should not use this medication if you are allergic to granisetron.
Before using granisetron, tell your doctor if you have a stomach or intestinal disorder, if you have recently had stomach or intestinal surgery, or if you have ever had an allergic reaction to any type of medicated skin patch. You may need a dose adjustment or special tests to safely use granisetron.
Avoid exposing the skin patch or your upper arm to sunlight, sunlamps, or tanning beds. Natural or artificial sunlight can cause a skin reaction where the granisetron skin patch is worn. This effect may last for up to 10 days after the patch is removed. Wear protective clothing over your arms while you are wearing the skin patch and for at least 10 days after you remove a patch.
Do not use granisetron during a time when you are not having chemotherapy, unless your doctor has told you to.
What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before using granisetron?
You should not use this medication if you are allergic to granisetron.
If you have certain conditions, you may need a dose adjustment or special tests to safely use this medication. Before using transdermal granisetron, tell your doctor if you have:
a stomach or intestinal disorder;
if you have recently had stomach or intestinal surgery; or
if you have ever had an allergic reaction to any type of medicated skin patch.
FDA pregnancy category B. Granisetron is not expected to be harmful to an unborn baby. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant during treatment.
It is not known whether granisetron passes into breast milk or if it could harm a nursing baby. Do not use this medication without telling your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.
Do not use transdermal granisetron on anyone younger than 18 years old.
How should I use transdermal granisetron?
Use this medication exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not use it in larger amounts or for longer than recommended. Follow the directions on your prescription label.
Apply the granisetron skin patch 24 to 48 hours before your chemotherapy is scheduled to start. To use the patch, open the sealed pouch and remove the protective liner. Apply the transdermal patch to a clean, dry area on the outer side of your upper arm. Avoid placing the patch on skin that is red, irritated or damaged.
Press the patch onto the skin and press it down firmly with your fingers. Make sure the patch is well sealed around the edges.
Leave the patch in place and wear it for at least 24 hours after your chemotherapy ends. You may continue wearing the skin patch for up to 7 days if needed, depending on your chemotherapy schedule. Follow your doctor's instructions.
Do not cut or trim the granisetron skin patch.
If the patch falls off, try sticking it back on. If it does not stay on, replace it with a new one and wear it for the rest of your patch-wearing time. Do not change your schedule, even if you apply a new patch to replace one that has fallen off.
After removing a patch, fold it in half so it sticks together and throw it away in a place where children or pets cannot get to it.
Do not use granisetron during a time when you are not having chemotherapy, unless your doctor has told you to.
Keep each granisetron skin patch in its sealed pouch until you are ready to use it. Store the pouches at room temperature away from moisture, heat, and light.
What happens if I miss a dose?
Call your doctor for instructions if you forget to apply a granisetron skin patch at least 24 hours before your chemotherapy is scheduled to start. Do not use extra patches to make up the missed dose.
What happens if I overdose?
Seek emergency medical attention if you think you have used too much of this medicine.
An overdose of transdermal granisetron is not expected to produce life-threatening side effects.
What should I avoid while using transdermal granisetron?
Avoid exposing the skin patch or your upper arm to sunlight, sunlamps, or tanning beds. Natural or artificial sunlight can cause a skin reaction where the granisetron skin patch is worn. This effect may last for up to 10 days after the patch is removed. Wear protective clothing over your arms while you are wearing the skin patch and for at least 10 days after you remove a patch.

Disappointed – We were Honeymooning at a Resort about 20 minutes from Tampa and thought we should spend one night at a hotel and go out on the town. I thought this would be a great place to celebrate...because it was my birthday as well! The lady checking us in was pretty blah and made no small talk. I had put in my reservation that I would love a room with a water view. When we got to our room the only view we had was of the roof!! I was so upset. We tried to rest and take a nap before going out but our floor was so noisy and above us they kept dropping things on the floor. We weren't able to get any rest. Then at 8:00am the next morning we got the housekeeping knocking on our door...are you serious. The entire thing was not what I had planned for and will never be back.

Hawker Beechcraft Announces 800XPR Engine Installation, Ground Runs Begin
Announced at EBACE 2010, the Hawker 800XPR upgrade offers significant improvements over the performance and capability of the 800XP,
GENEVA, Switzerland (May 17, 2011) – Hawker Beechcraft Global Customer Support (GSC) today announced that its Hawker 800XPR upgrade is making steady progress toward certification this summer with the installation of new Honeywell TFE731-50R engines. With the new engines installed, power-on ground runs have begun on the aircraft prior to the flight testing. GCS expects to achieve Hawker 800XPR FAA certification in June, followed by EASA certification in July.
"We have received significant operator interest in this upgrade program due to the economics of this upgrade package and the fact that it is based on proven technology that is currently flying in the Hawker 900XP," said Christi Tannahill, Hawker Beechcraft vice president, GSC. "This, in combination with on-schedule flight testing, is making for very positive momentum on this program."
Announced at EBACE 2010, the Hawker 800XPR upgrade offers significant improvements over the performance and capability of the 800XP, the industry's best-selling midsize jet. Genuine Hawker winglets and more powerful, state-of-the-art Honeywell TFE731-50R turbofan engines give the 800XPR greater range, better time to climb and faster cruise speeds. Capable of 5,000 pounds of thrust, flat rated to 4,660 pounds, the TFE731-50R engines, along with the Hawker winglets, will enable Hawker 800XPR upgraded aircraft to climb direct to altitude, at maximum weight, in just 25 minutes and fly more than 2,800 nautical miles, making the aircraft a true intercontinental performer.
In addition, optional avionics, a newly-stylized Hawker interior and XPR custom paint designs are available. The upgrade is available exclusively through Hawker Beechcraft Services, the company's factory-owned service center network.

Jahii Carson's play continues to be recognized
After being selected to the Freshman Player of the Year Watch List Thursday, the point guard's outstanding play for the Sun Devils (17-4) continued to earn him national recognition, this time by ESPN.com writer Jeremy Lundblad.
In his NCAA men's basketball January recap, Lundblad chose Carson as "Freshman of the Month," crediting the point guard's ability to shoot and dish the ball as the main reason for keeping ASU's post-season tournament hopes alive.
He averaged 17.5 PPG (third among D-I freshmen) and 4.6 APG (tied for ninth among freshmen) during the month. On the season, he's on pace to be the first major conference freshman since Shaheen Halloway in 1996-97 to average 17 PPG and 5 APG.
Carson ended the month on a high note Thursday by dropping 25 points at Washington State, with 21 of them coming in the second half, leading ASU to a 63-59 victory in Pullman.
In 21 games through the season, the frosh point guard is averaging 17.6 points and 5.3 assists per game while shooting 45 percent from the field.
