New flavors broaden bubble tea options
Published 2:49 pm, Wednesday, February 27, 2013
The draw in bubble tea, the cheap, sweet, milky drink sold in specialty cafes and restaurants across America, has long been the "bubble," the gelatinous tapioca balls that one chews on while drinking the tea.
But now, the bubble is losing popularity against unexpected rivals, such as lychee jelly, grass jelly and egg pudding, items that are even stranger than tapioca, and not normally associated with tea in the United States.
Until recently, bubble tea mixed black tea with milk, sugary syrup and boiled, marble-sized tapioca balls. Though the original bubble tea first showed up about two decades ago in large Asian neighborhoods, it has since moved firmly into the mainstream in the United States and Europe. Last June, even McDonald's began selling it at its restaurants in Germany. But in many shops in the United States, bubble tea's basic formula is no longer enough.
"People want something more exotic," said Brian Jiang, owner of Share Tea in Queens. One of his main menu items, "Happy Family Milk Tea," contains mango pudding, whole red beans, tapioca balls and grass jelly. The resulting drink, if not stirred well, leaves an inch of pudding and whole beans that customers scoop or tap out.
More Information
In the last year, Jiang said sales of lychee jelly and grass jelly in bubble tea rose 20 percent, while the sale of tapioca balls didn't grow.
Tapioca is made from the starch of cassava, a root crop grown mainly in Africa and South Asia. The tapioca balls used in bubble tea, also known as "boba," are made mostly in China and Taiwan, then vacuum sealed and exported to the United States.
Tawa Supermarket Co. Ltd., which has more than 30 stores in the states, imports bubble tea products from China and Taiwan and resells them to cafes and shops nationwide. With the dropoff in demand for "bubbles," tapioca sales have slipped 20 percent in the last three years, said Amanda Lin, a merchandising coordinator in the company.
At Oasis Tea Zone in Seattle, manager I-Miun Liu said that people from all cultures show up at his shop to drink bubble tea. Many customers now add egg pudding to the milk tea, while asking him to leave out the boba.
Last August, German researchers at the University Hospital Aachen published a study that claimed tapioca boba contained carcinogens and other harmful chemicals. Taiwan's Food and Drug Administration then came to the defense of its tapioca, saying that it does not contain cancer-causing chemicals.
Grass jelly, one of the substitutes for boba now showing up in the United States. It is made from stalks of the mesona chineensis plant, a type of mint touted in China and Taiwan for its supposed health benefits.

The Avengers has raised more than a few eyebrows for its ambitious high concept: taking the stars of Marvel Studios' biggest franchises and placing them all within the same movie. In essence, it's a sequel to Iron Man, Thor, and Captain America, but the fun doesn't end there — because according to Jon Favreau, Iron Man 3 is a sequel to The Avengers.
"In theory, 'Iron Man 3′ is going to be a sequel or continuation of 'Thor,' 'Hulk,' 'Captain America' and 'Avengers,'" the filmmaker told MTV News in a recent interview. Because he hasn't seen a script for The Avengers and has only talked with the other Marvel filmmakers in passing, Favreau said he couldn't even hazard a guess as to where Tony Stark will be when the time comes for a third Iron Man film.
"This whole world… I have no idea what it is," he said of the Marvel cinematic universe. "I don't think they do either, from conversations I've had with those guys."
Favreau also offered some insight into the Marvel Studios creative process: "The script is one thing, but when you actually see what you land on at the editing room — especially with Marvel where they film, cut, film some more and shape the film — you really learn as you go."
figured Marvel would want to try and keep their film universe like their comic one. a tight one. though the wait for iron man three is a real long long one to find out how they will pull off a third iron man film.
It's probably not a good thing if 3-5 films into this "universe" they don't know what it looks like or what the "rules" are….
Who will introduce The Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver, Sub-mariner and Toro?
Because Sony/Fox has been so aggressive in its attempts to absorb as much of the Marvel Universe as it can (ex. X-men: First Class), Marvel has no choice but to attempt to create as many new fronts as it can to keep presenting its characters under the Marvel/Disney banner. Iron man first presented recent incarnations of Capt. America, Thor, Black Widow, Nick Fury and now Hulk. The Avengers will present at least Hawkeye but lost out on the Beast.
The big question is who will be the first to introduce characters which are supposed Mutant and Avengers characters even if they were not X-men.
Marvel Studios is only a few films old and it's already bogged down with continuity. Nice job.
Thats not what they're saying at all. They're saying that Thor, Captain America, and the Avengers havent been released yet, so Favreau doesn't know what Ironman 3 will be about yet…
be nice if they keep it that way the same continuum

Skip to comments.Rasmussen: Romney 50%, Obama 42%. Obama at -22%. 44% Approval
Posted on 05/12/2012 6:43:05 AM PDT by NE Cons
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Saturday shows Mitt Romney earning 50% of the vote and President Obama attracting 42% support. Four percent (4%) would vote for a third party candidate, while another three percent (3%) are undecided.
(Excerpt) Read more at m.rasmussenreports.com ...
November will be a GOP landslide.
The only people more in denial about this than Team Obama are FR's resident defeatists.
Not only that, it was a "slushball"......Mitt, you gunky!
I think the same as Coach and have said so from the first minute of this gay nonsense.
Obama is desperate and has already started throwing Hail Marys six months out.
Breaking News (Washington Post):
While in the 2nd grade, Romney threw a spitball at the teacher. He was made to stand in the corner for 1 hour.
Film at 11.
It's like I said on another thread, anyone who's not pulling their oar with all of their might is a Frenchman!
Egads! I heard rumors that Mitt stayed up way past midnight as a tween on several occasions!
Maybe we should vote for the communist?
Obama's approval index is -22 points. While that is significant, it's even more significant that he is down this much with less than 6 months to go before the election.
Short of declaring martial law and suspending the elections, or electoral cheating on an unprecedented massive scale, I don't see how he can overcome this.
The past two days are the first time that Romney has reached 50% against Obama since Rasmussen started polling the general election. IMHO, it's not because of what Romney's doing. Instead, Obama has turned more voters against him in the past few days. We all know what's been in the news lately with regard to Obama & Biden, and the public does not approve. Also, voters are probably more focused on the economy than Obama and the MSM would like for them to be.
A very good analysis.
Excellent points.
Yep, 0pansy looks like the NCAA bb team with the last second desperation shot from half court to win or lose.
This time, 0pansy and his bb team will lose.
Exactly! Like I posted a couple days ago, Mittens is just going to stand back and let this fool bury himself further and further.
The gay crap (pun semi intended) is the final nail in the coffin; people are sick of Obama, period. Like I also posted a couple days ago, luckily the Rats are PC to the point of suicide because if they were serious about winning, Obama would have got the tap on the shoulder months ago.
By not doing that, we will be rid of both Obama and Hillary!, because a badly aging woman will not be elected POTUS. I look at this scenario as a two-fer!!!
OK, I give: What is a yellow state? And pink?
It makes me wonder what the pro-Obama forces do have against Romney, as we move closer to the November general election. As one example, does the pro-Obama forces plan to find a way to, possibly, cancel the November election?
Thanks to 50 years of Marx-friendly brainwashing in the Public School system, these kids don't know their their right hand from their left. 44%.
Pray for America.
I heard that Mitt THOUGHT ABOUT having more than one wife, before he got married, and Mitt wore magic underwear to his wedding!
Just imagine how far Obama would be dropping in the polls if the Republicans had a nominee that anyone wants to vote for.
If Romney manages to pull out a win, it will be entirely due to the the Anyone But Obama vote.
The American people (the majority of them) long for normalcy and a return to traditional values and leadership. They are getting the exact oppoistie from the Kenyan Marxist.
I agree that the majority of Americans want to go back to something they recognize.
I think that maybe, Obama's support of gay marriage will be the final straw. Obama really wanted the queer money, it is a lot, and I'm sure Obama thinks that people will forget about it before the election. I hope Romney doesn't let us forget.
People in this country nearly all would have helped Rromney cut the hair of the little long haired boy back in the early 60's. Most of us would have at least seen humor in it.
There is much that I don't like about Romney, he is too liberal for me, but the press calls him conservative. To me that is silly, but if people hear Romneys positions and then hear the press call him conservative most people will realize that they too are conservative and that the Freepers are ultra conservative.
I have high hopes for this election, the Senate is in play and unlike Nancy Pelosi I think the House is Republican for a decade or more, at least until the boomers die off.
My secret hope is that a conservative house and senate will find that Obama was not qualified as a Natural Born Citizen and back up all he did. I know that sounds silly but it is not impossible with a large enough majority. We need to really stir it up! I believe that the hiring of Czars is more than un-constitutional, it is anti-constutional, impeachable. The congressional leadership is complicit in the fraud of Obama that was foisted on this country by the Obama election and presidency. It should have never happened if we had loyal Americans in Congress and in the Judiciary.
My kids, grand kids and great-grand kids may have a chance to live in freedom after all.
Agree 100%, but I'll take it... Anything to get the KM out
"This is very early in the campaign process for an incumbent president to be significantly behind in polling."
Hmmm. Probably true for dem incumbents. They have had three years of adulatory media. The negative stuff doesn't start hitting the general public until R's start buying time on TV. OTOH, R incumbents are frequently down substantially at this point. I think W was polling considerably behind John Kerry about now. That's because W had, at that point, had three years of unremittingly negative press.
It's the timing of the negative campaign that causes this difference. It's constant against R's. It only happens to D's in year four.
Bingo.....that's that irritating high pitched whistling sound 0bambi makes when speaking......
It's a subliminal call for rats to assemble
Pied Pieper Redux..
Obama : Americas most Unwanted
Mitt drove across the US in feezing rain with his dog duct taped to the roof of a gas guzzling car
it was reported in Newsweak that Mitt said the "F" word in 1987 after bumping his head on a sharp corner
sources close to DU report that Mitt once urinated outdoors behind a bush in 1979
It's early, early, early and the dogs against Romney have just begun to be unleashed. But it's much better for Romney to be sitting where he is now, than to be 8-10% down. With Romney near or at 50%, it's a psychological victory and people who like to back a winner will jump on his bandwagon.
If this sort of margin holds up, watch the entire focus to shift to the Senate. The battle there will be as fierce as we've ever seen.
Excellent post and absolutely spot on for how the vast majority of people decide their vote. It is general appearance, seeming maturity and reassurance - particularly after such a chaotic drunken fling with the exotic - that voters will be looking for. Specific issues count for less...except where they reinforce that general vision (and in this case gay marriage just doubles down on the "exotic", the strangely different, which merely reinforces the vision that is taking hold now). If Obama were truly smart, he'd find something very traditional to latch onto, particularly in the economic realm, not double down on the exotic stuff.
I agree it is worse for Republicans because, as you say there is a lap-dog, slobbery press, building up dem presidents. Especially with the current Occupant ... everything he does is "historical!" and "unprecedented".
Also, polling is biased, the pollsters usually attribute more democrats to the polling sample than are really in the population.
Which is all the more reason to be surprised at O-Blame-Bush's negative numbers. He has taken a true 5-10% hit with his gay marriage stance. He's getting Hollyweird money for it but I believe he's lost a lot of votes.
...and I pray it doesn't remain temporary but permanent.
The Democrats of the 21st century need to be punished for their perversion of the body politic...their utter and unequivocal defeat in November will do nicely.
Agree. Totally
Wow, that is great!
Look for the Mormon attacks to begin any day.
"Look for the Mormon attacks to begin any day."
In many places across the country, the Mormon attacks started during the Christmas - New Years time span.
Relatives and friends across the nation told us about their left wing priests, pastors, lesbian priests/pastors and of course gay so called men of the cloth attacking the Mormans as a dangerous cult hiding as a religion.
I posted about this in January/Feb of this year.
People are sick of obama, they know he's a failure and this doesn't surprise me 1 bit.
Keep in mind an Obamacare ruling is coming, which can't help obama much either way.
Indeed they are. The final straw for my boss, who has been a local Rat office holder, was Obama coming out for gay marriage. He's not the only one, and I don't understand how Obama could've done something so incredibly stupid now. Maybe it is God's hand giving this nation one final chance, I don't know.
If the Supremes rule against Obamacare, which I sincerely hope they do, then that will actually help Obama.
Since the majority of Americans are against Obamacare, if the Supremes rule in favor of it, then the Republicans and others can rail against Obama, and promise a vote for them will be a vote to kill it. It will be the last time those against it (which is a majority of folks) can do anything about it, and will lead to a more enthusiastic vote.
On the other hand, if the Supremes declare it Unconstitutional and strike it down, many voters will be satisfied with that ruling and will not be so fired up come November. Some who would vote in anger against it will not bother voting as it is no longer an issue. I still don't see that as enough to get Obama over the edge, but with almost certain democrat voter fraud and extremely biased media help, who knows!
You're assuming all of ObamaCare would be struck down. That's unlikely. If the Supreme Court strikes down the Individual Mandate, but treats it as severable, then the Republicans/Conservatives/Romney will still be able to use what remains of ObamaCare as a campaign issue.
That very well may be. I'd still like to see the whole thing slam dunked as Unconstitutional.
Oh, and let's repeal the 16th and 17th ammendments, too!
does that mean from an all time high he is down 22% or is that a "dislike" poll. Would you clear this up for me - thanks a bunch.
Love that
It means that in the latest Rasmussen poll 22% more Strongly Disliked the Liberal Messiah than Strongly Liked Him.
The -22% is the difference between his "strongly approve" and "strongly disapprove".
No, it didn't. It's not just disgust at the idea of eating Man's Best Friend, either. It's the un-Americanness of it. We don't eat dogs, but many foreigners do. So Obama, not content merely to eat the dog, elects to rub our noses in it. I.e.: he could have asked Bill Ayers not to include it, but he obviously wanted it prominently displayed in his bio. It's O's way of saying, in so many words, 'Culturally, I'm not an American—and I'm proud of that'.
It's the kind of thing that rubs people the wrong way. Plus, he's been letting his anger show too much of late. Some pollster or other once said, 'People don't want an angry man in their living room'. Obama, surrounded by his shrunken, sycophantic Chicago coterie, has no idea his anger, constant attacks and constant blaming are not playing well. He probably reads DU, sees some favorable comments, and thinks he's on a roll.
I heard Dick Morris on the radio yesterday. He said historically people haven't been enthused about Obama's policies, but they've liked Obama personally. Morris says that has just upended, and w'in the past mo people are starting to like Obama himself even less than his policies. Sure looks like Obama is riding for a fall. Maybe the USA at large isn't just Chicago on a bigger scale after all.
People are also sick of being called extremist and hateful for believing marriage is one woman and one man. They want the drama and theatrics to go away and have a POTUS focused on getting the economy fixed. Obama has utterly failed at that. No leadership at all from him on the economy and all these fake controversies are just a reminder of that.

Advice from Mom: Treat Those Holiday Stains as Soon as Possible!
by Rae Osenbaugh
During the holiday season, entertaining is at its peak, putting everything from favorite outfits to treasured table linens at a greater than usual risk for spots and stains. Stains should be treated as soon as possible, preferably before they have dried. Gently sponge the stain. Avoid rubbing, it can spread the stain and/or damage the fabric. When in doubt about the stains origin, rinse or soak in cold water before laundering or applying a stain remover. Washable items should be laundered after treatment to remove residues of the stain and stain remover. Heavy stains may require a prewash or presoak.
Prewash soil and stain removers work particularly well on oil-based stains, such as cooking oils, cosmetics and animal fats, and on polyester fibers. Prewash products are available in pump spray, liquid, stick, gel, or aerosol forms. The stick and gel versions are great for instant treatment, because they can be left on the garment for up to a week. Sprays or liquids should be used to pretreat stains just prior to washing.
Chocolate or protein stains, such as baby formula, dairy products, eggs, and blood, should be treated using an enzyme presoak. These granular products are used to soak laundry prior to washing. Follow the label directions as to soaking time and temperature--generally, a 30 minute or longer period in warm or cool water.
Spin or wring the solution out of the garment before beginning the wash cycle. If the stain still remains, rewash, using a bleach safe for the fabric.

I would like to make a suggestion, for something that starts to be really lacking in WordPress.
That would be to allow an advanced filtering of the blog posts, filtered by categories :
- show posts belonging to categories A and C, but NOT from B and D"
Or filtering by tags, instead of "show only posts with tag "E", for instance, it would be :
- show posts containing tags E AND F
Operators could help filter better, for instance :
- show posts belonging to both categories C and D
(not posts belonging to only one of the two categories)
We could even imagine advanced filtering mixing the two criteria :
- show posts belonging to categories B or C, AND containing the tag "E"
For a small blog, that would be useless, I recognize it, but as soon as our blogs reach the 1500+ posts, with tags all around, and categories added as time flies, our old posts become worthless, they're lost in the mass.
Advanced filtering would be so much better, allowing our visitors to receive precise results if they have precise needs !
What do you guys think of it, as a feature suggestion ?
Have a sunny day,

"Are you still thinking about her?"
Through the windows of Tokyo Tower's Special Observation deck, the city stretched out, sparkling and vibrant against the night. The lights drowned out all but the brightest stars in the sky, creating a makeshift universe below on the earth with the city's alternating twinklings of blues, yellows, and reds.
Subaru sat on the floor, gloved hands pressed against the glass, staring. It was hard not to think about Kazue-san, her ethereal form, her former sadness. Encountering spirits was no new thing, but while he had grown used to their presence in his life, he had yet to develop a shield against the empathy they aroused. Hokuto thought he was too kind and gave too much of himself to others, and if that was true, it explained the heaviness in his heart.
Subaru blinked and looked up; the light hand changed. Seishiro had moved closer, casting him in the wake of his shadow. Yes, he was still thinking about Kazue-san, but also…
"Why did you follow me up here, Seishiro-san?"
"I told you." Seishiro sat next to him, and the shadow moved and was gone. He smiled and reached out, his forefinger touching the very tip of Subaru's nose. "I was just trying to protect the man I love."
Subaru's face colored; he looked away, back out at Tokyo. A hundred thousand mysteries were unfolding in the night below them, but the two of them remained seated, locked onto the deck until morning.
"I feel bad, now that we're done" he said. "We shouldn't be here after hours…"
"That's like you – you wouldn't want to break any rules." Seishiro smiled again and took off his glasses, cleaning them on the hem of his jacket. "I mean it, you know," he continued, eyes sparkling good-naturedly. "I really do love you."
Subaru's face grew hotter. Doggedly, he folded his hands in his lap and stared at them.
"And here we are," Seishiro mused. "You and I, all alone, at one of the most romantic spots in Tokyo…we could get up to unspeakable mischief…and no one would ever find out." He put his glasses back on; they gleamed with a new brightness, reflecting Tokyo's lights. "Well, maybe Hokuto-chan would," he added. "She has a knack for knowing all sorts of things."
"I know you like to joke when she's around, but you can stop now, Seishiro-san."
He smiled again, wider and more kind, at the face that was still staring adamantly down at the floor. Seishiro reached over, his fingertips tracing the soft, exposed skin under his throat, lifting Subaru's face to meet his.
"I'm not joking."
They remained frozen in the silence until the blood pounding in Subaru's ears grew too loud for him to stand.
"Y-you're such a kidder, Seishiro-san!"
Seishiro pulled away, sighing with a great air of melodrama. "Hokuto-chan will be disappointed in me. Here I am, all alone with you, completely failing in the art of seduction." Subaru spluttered as he pulled off his jacket and began folding it. "You can't tell your sister about this, though – she'll never let me live down how I left your innocence intact."
"Wait – what?"
"Here." Seishiro held out his jacket; it had been folded into a soft, square bundle. "It won't be quiet as good as a pillow, but you can stretch out on the floor and rest your head on it. You should get some sleep….it's been a long night."
Subaru felt something in his throat tighten; he swallowed, took the jacket, and looked up into the face that was still smiling at him with soft, kind eyes. Seishiro rose to his feet.
"I'm not tired yet. I think I'll go for a walk."
"T-thanks, Seishiro-san…" Subaru looked down at the jacket in his hands; the light shifted, and suddenly he was plunged into shadow again as Seishiro leaned down, too quickly for Subaru to register, and kissed his forehead.
"You're welcome, Subaru-kun." He stood up straight now, beaming. "Now get some rest."
Subaru watched him walk away, hands in his pockets, his expression hidden. He decided he wouldn't tell Hokuto-chan about their conversation, or the kiss (Subaru touched his forehead lightly, as if unsure that it had even happened) but most of all, about the way Seishiro's jacket smelled: like sakura, the haunting, delicate sweetness of the spring flower, the masculine smell of work…and something under it all, coppery and old, like rusted metal…almost like blood.
Almost. His mind moved on to more important things;Seishiro-san was always teasing him…but maybe, well…just maybe…
Subaru breathed in the scent quietly to himself and fell asleep, smiling.

Is there a way to include tags when posting to WordPress 2.3 using XmlRpc? I know the other Tagging plugins support using [tags]tagA,tagB,tagC[tags] which will then tag the post with these tags.
I tried this and it doesn't tag anything. Is there a different method of embedding tags in a post?

Frayer Vocabulary Model
The Frayer Model is a graphic Organizer used for word analysis and vocabulary building. The four squares guide a child to define a word on concept through 1) the definition of the term/ concept 2) essential characteristics of that term/ concept 3) Providing examples of the term/concept 4) providing non-examples of the term/ concept
This strategy allows students to understand the term through the definition and characteristics and then apply their knowledge to the examples and non-examples.
An additional aspect of drawing a picture or symbol for the word might be beneficial, especially for visual learners.
How can I use it in class?
- Use it to introduce new vocabulary terms for a story or passage.
- Use it to introduce the "big picture" of a topic or concept you are studying.
- Use it to review or assess a concept or term that you have studied to see if students understand concept beyond memorizing definitions.
- Use it as a guide for students to locate words that they have problems with individually as they read.
- Use it as a guide for students to select important vocabulary words from a selection.

Grossmont College basketball players Mark Ogen and Tyson Kygar have been honored as Pacific Coast Athletic Conference Men's Athletes of the week for the week that ended Sunday.
Ogden, a 6-foot-7 sophomore forward from Steele Canyon High School, was named Most Valuable Player and Kygar, a 6-foot-0 sophomore guard from El Capitan High, also was an all-tournament selection as the Griffins won the championship in the 42nd Grossmont College Invitational.
Ogden, who is averaging in double figures in scoring and rebounding on the season, kept his streak intact with 53 points and 36 rebounds in the G-House's three victories in the tournament, 101-71 over West Los Angeles, 92-79 over Victor Valley and 76-68 over Cerritos in the championship game. His 21 points and 10 rebounds in the Cerritos game earned him the MVP award.
Kygar buried 12-of-13 3-pointers as he scored 53 points in Grossmont's three victories. He also had a team-leading 13 assists and seven steals. His leadership and poise on the court helped the Griffins hold off late charges from Victor Valley and Cerritos on the second and third nights of the tournament.
Honorable mention went to Palomar wrestler Shervin Iraniha, Southwestern basketball player Jimmie Elder-Chapman and Imperial Valley basketball player Rishawn Brown.
Iraniha, a sophomore from Monte Vista High School, won the 157-pound championship as Palomar placed third in the Southern California Championships at East Los Angeles College. Iraniha had a bye in the first round as the No. 1 seed in the weight class, then pinned East L.A.'s Joseph Magdaleno-Hu in 4:47 and Cuesta's Josh Cortez in 4:42 to reach the finals. In the championship match, he won by injury default over Palomar teammate Marshall Palmer, who advanced to the finals despite sustaining a severe cut forehead in his first bout.
Elder-Chapman helped lead Southwestern to the consolation championship at the Grossmont tournament. The 6-foot-6 freshman forward from Mission Bay High School scored 11 points and grabbed eight rebounds in a 74-61 loss to Cerritos in the first round. He came back with 26 points, going 11-for-13 from the field, in an 84-66 victory over Cypress, then had 12 points, six boards and four steals as the Jaguars downed West L.A. 60-57 for the consolation title.
Brown, a 5-foot-10 sophomore guard from Middletown High School in Middletown, CT. and a transfer from Cochise (AZ) Community College, had 14 points and six assists as Imperial Valley lost 84-54 to City College of San Francisco to begin the Mt. SAC Classic. He led the Arabs over Porterville 68-41 in the consolation semifinals with 20 points and five assists, then scored 22 points in the consolation finals, where IVC fell to San Diego City College 70-58.

Winter workouts to keep you inspired
During the winter, it's all too easy to avoid exercising – especially if you spend most of your days at work or in school. When you do have the time, it's cold and dark outside – hardly inviting for an outdoor walk or run.
"Like bears, we tend to slow down during the winter. But unlike bears, we tend to gain weight and not lose it," says David Davis, MD, a board-certified family medicine physician at Kaiser Permanente Colorado. "However, I am a big believer in regular activity, especially during the winter, when exercise becomes much more important for alleviating stress, lifting our moods – and maintaining a healthy weight."
When people get insufficient exercise or daylight exposure, their mood decreases. In some extreme cases, they may be affected by seasonal affective disorder, also known as SAD. People with this condition may sleep too much, have little energy, and crave sweets and starchy foods.
Benefits of exercise
"Regular exercise helps keep your mood up by tapping into your natural endorphins," Dr. Davis explains. Endorphins are a type of brain chemical that helps create a sense of well-being, control the appetite, and enhance the immune system.
Exercise helps people sleep better. When people get a restful seven or eight hours of sleep, they are better able to manage their moods, eat healthier, and cope with the challenges of daily life. It also helps keep weight in check by burning calories and decreasing appetites. Without sufficient exercise during the winter, people are more likely to greet the spring with an extra 10 pounds or more.
Creative ways to exercise
To make sure you get the recommended 30 minutes of daily exercise, it's important to find activities you enjoy. "It's important to keep in mind that any activity is beneficial," says Andrea Groth, MS, prevention specialist with Kaiser Permanente Colorado. "It doesn't always have to entail a special trip to the gym or the ski slopes."
To find creative ways to become more active, consider the following tips:
Be a mall walker. "It helps if you can squeeze activities into your daily routine," Groth says. "If you are at the mall, you can walk a few laps before or after shopping. It also helps to park in a distant parking spot." The extra steps add up if you make several trips to the car to drop off purchases.
Tap into exercise programs on TV. If you have cable TV, you can take advantage of On-Demand exercise programs, ranging from cardiovascular training to yoga and strength-training. It is almost like having a personal instructor come to your home – for the price of your monthly cable bill. You can also rent or buy exercise DVDs or visit KaiserPermanente.org to watch free exercise videos and download audio podcasts.
Daily chores count too. Yard work and household chores, such as mopping and sweeping, also have health benefits. To squeeze in more activity at the office, you can walk over to your co-workers' desks instead of calling or e-mailing. You can also walk to a more distant restroom and use the stairs instead of the elevator.
Play with your children. When parents join their children outside for play, it's beneficial on many levels. The entire family is getting the exercise they need; plus, they are strengthening relationships and reinforcing healthy habits. Families can take advantage of sledding, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing. They can even build snowmen and snow forts together.
Look for new activities. "We are fortunate to have access to many indoor and outdoor activities here in Colorado ," Dr. Davis says. To stay informed on all the activities taking place in your area, it helps to check local Web sites and area newspapers.
"Because variety is the spice of life, I also encourage people to try new activities, such as snowshoeing, spinning classes, yoga, and any other activities they may find enjoyable," he adds. New activities help people remain interested in exercise – and keep the winter blues away.
Use that exercise equipment. For many people, the novelty of a new piece of exercise equipment eventually wears off. To help make this investment more enjoyable, place a TV near your treadmill or download new music onto your MP3 player to keep you motivated.
Get a pedometer. A good pedometer costs about $15. This device is a great way to track your steps. To make it more fun and challenging, you can set goals for yourself, or partner with a friend or your spouse and have a friendly competition to see who can get the most steps during a day.
Take advantage of added support
Kaiser Permanente Colorado members can take advantage of many classes and programs in the metro Denver area and in Boulder County. Examples of these classes include the 10,000 Steps® Program, Yoga, and Chi Gung, a program that uses steady, flowing movements, and deep breathing to promote strength, flexibility, relaxation, and balance. Members can also get discounts to complementary health and fitness programs. In addition, Kaiser Permanente Colorado offers tools and calculators to help you track how many calories you burn during certain activities and how to calculate your target heart rate.
To learn more about these programs and how to remain active during the winter, visit KaiserPermanente.org.
Dr. Davis received his medical degree from Emory University and performed his residency at the Medical University of South Carolina.

"With every paper I'd deliver"
Do you recognize that song lyric?
If you do, you might want to go to www.npr.org and track down a recent installment from an "All Things Considered" series in which listeners talked about music that their parents loved. (Is that a great idea for radio or what?)
Anyway, the on-air conversation to which I'm alluding sort of got to me. Apparently I was not alone.

AUSTIN, Texas — A new grocery store called Rosewood Community Market celebrated its grand opening here last week with a mission to provide local food to an underserved area of the city. "It's at the corner of Rosewood and Chicon in east Austin, which is a designated USDA [U.S. Department of Agriculture] food desert and right in between a couple of federally subsidized housing units," said owner Allen Rogers. While this area of east Austin is becoming trendier, ...

Most polearms come with a swing and thrust damage number, but while on horseback, the default attack seems to be only thrust. How do I swing a polearm while on horseback?
It seems that most polearms in the game do not support a swing attack while mounted. The only such pole arms that allow for 2 handed swings are the hafted blades and their variants. These are the same weapons that the Khergit lancers sometimes use, which is how I noticed their uniqueness.

Grammys 2010: Live-Blogging the Awards
You're in the right place for coverage of the 52nd annual Grammy Awards. Speakeasy will be live-blogging the 2010 show all night starting at 8 p.m. ET.
Performers on tonight's schedule include Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Eminem, Green Day (with the cast of their musical "American Idiot"), Jennifer Nettles of Sugarland, Drake, Lil Wayne, and Mary J. Blige with tenor Andrea Bocelli in a special duet to benefit Haitian earthquake relief.
And look for Taylor Swift to have a big night.
There will also be a tribute to Michael Jackson that includes a 3-D clip. You can get the 3-D glasses free from Target.
We'll be following all the performances and presentations in our live blog; we'll also be posting a slideshow of Grammy fashion and answering one of the biggest questions of the night: what will Lady Gaga be wearing?
Grammys 2010 Fashion: The Good, The Bad, The Ugly
The Grammys haven't even started yet and Taylor Swift is already a winner. She picked up two awards in the pre-show. She's going to have, to paraphrase Black Eyed Peas (another nominee tonight) a good, good night.
The announcer starts off saying it's ladies night, and Lady Gaga takes the stage. A sign behind her reads "The Fame Factory." She's wearing a green number with shoulder pads a barely there bottom and after a brief intro, launches into "Poker Face."
Lady Gaga, wearing Elton John-style glasses, has now joined the real Elton John, wearing Lady Gaga-style fashion, at a pair of pianos. The two are singing her ballad "Speechless." They threw in a bit of John's "Your Song."
Elton John has worn a lot of outrageous stage outfits. The blue war paint he wore for the Lady Gaga duet was weird, even for Elton.
Stephen Colbert, a nominee for best comedy album, comes out. He says hello to his fellow nominees, Taylor Swift and Jay-Z. Says the right of celebrities to congratulate each other is "precious." Colbert addresses his young daughter in the audience "stay away from Katy Perry" he says. One duet he'd like to see: Adam Lambert "and any sense of personal restraint." Says he wishes Susan Boyle were there; says Justin Timberlake may have brought sexy back, but Boyle sent it away again.
Of course Colbert pulls out an iPad to announce the song of the year.
Beyonce's "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" wins for song of the year. It launched a thousand parodies and knock-offs and the video was as influential as the song itself.
Green Day comes out with the cast of their punk musical "American Idiot" to perform "21 Guns." The show is headed to Broadway in March after a run at Berkeley Repertory Theatre. The show features all Green Day songs, and follows a bunch of characters from the suburbs to the city to the Middle East.
The winner for best country album is Taylor Swift. It's amazing how she's been able to grab mainstream success and get love from the country community. She thanks the record label for letting her write "every song" on her album. She calls it an "impossible dream." It's a short, sweet speech. There will likely be more to come.
Beyonce comes out. She's got what appears to be a squadron of riot police behind her. She sings a bit of "If I Were a Boy." She seems to be turning the performance into a tribute to the WTO Seattle riots of 1999.
Beyonce slides into a version of Alanis Morissette's rock anthem "You Oughta Know."
The song ends. It brings Jay-Z, Beyonce's tuxedoed significant other, to his feet. He better clap. The Alanis Morissette mini-tribute was the best part of the performance. Beyonce seemed comfortable with rocking out for a bit; perhaps she'll do more of it in the future.
Seal announces that Leonard Cohen received a lifetime award. It's a shame Cohen wasn't on hand to give a speech; he's usually full of wit and wisdom.
Of course, when Seal comes out, there's a shot of his wife, Heidi Samuel (aka supermodel Heidi Klum) in the audience. He introduces Pink, who sings the ballad "Glitter in the Air." She seems to be wearing a bright white version of a Jedi cloak. She strips it off and is carried skyward, above the crowd, in a hammock of white fabric. I looked down at the screen for a second and when I looked up Pink is dripping wet. She's soaked, singing, spinning, and hanging above the crowd. And she takes a bow, as the song ends.
The Grammy for Best New Artist has been compromised this year. No disrespect to the nominees, who are worthy bunch, but Lady Gaga should have been a nominee. For some bureaucratic/technical/ridiculous reasons she wasn't. But people like the winners, Zac Brown Band.
The Zac Brown Band wins for Best New Artist. Guess I'm out of touch with modern Nashville. No idea who they are.
Black Eyed Peas are performing in outfits that look like they were stolen from patrons at the Star Wars Cantina. I think Gaga unleashed a sci-fi fashion trend.
The Black Eyed Peas come out to sing "Imma Be." Will.i.am is wearing a black mask and epaulets. The band's costumes don't really compare to Lady Gaga. I look down for a second and when I look up, my wife mentions that some robot-like people crossed the stage. The band go into their hit "I Gotta Feeling." Despite the lyrics, I have a feeling it's not gonna be such a good night for them awards-wise.
The Jonas Brothers come out. What do folks think about Joe's beard and glasses?
The country trio Lady Antebellum come out and sing their hit "Need You Now."
Stephen Colbert wins for best comedy album. He thanks "Jesus Christ for having such a great birthday." Playing on a running joke from his appearance earlier in the night, Colbert asks his daughter if he's cool now.
Colbert's Christmas special has some cool musical guests, including John Legend, Feist, Elvis Costello, Toby Keith and Willie Nelson. Legend sang a really funny song called "Nutmeg" that was a send-up of R&B love songs.
Record of the year goes to Kings of Leon. Bit of an upset considering Taylor Swift was up for the same award. Rock bands still have to win sometime.
Yes, Kings of Leon has to be considered an underdog winner for "Use Somebody." But every now and again Grammy likes to reward a rock song just to let people know the genre still has a beating heart. Kings of Leon managed to squeeze in two references to drinking in their short time on stage. That's more than most pop artists would have been able to do.
I heard opera but when I looked up Jamie Foxx was on the stage.
My wife just walked in the room. "This is a mess!" is her comment about Foxx's performance.
Jamie Foxx' song with T-Pain is apparently so dope he needs two mics — hand-held and headpiece. Need I mention it makes heavy use of auto-tune. In keeping with the award show performance tradition of throwing in everything including the kitchen sink, Slash appears with Foxx and plays an old G n' R solo.
Can Slash maybe get some new headgear? That looks like the same oversized top hat he had on in the mid-80s. How about a beret or a tam o'shanter?
The best rock album award goes to Green Day. Billy Joe thanks producer Butch Vig — that name is a blast from the grunge-era past — and says he's "going to have shots with Kings of Leon."
Zac Brown Band play with Leon Russell. They sing "America the Beautiful" before later going into the song "Chicken Fried" and then diving into a mean fiddle solo.
Taylor Swift comes on and sings a bit of her number "Today was a Fairytale." She brings on Stevie Nicks to sing a duet version of Fleetwood Mac's 1970s song "Rhiannon" before going into her own hit "You Belong With Me."
People are twittering about how flat Swift's voice sounds. My wife also thinks she sounds a little off. I think her strength is as a songwriter and not necessarily as a vocalist. It'll be interesting to see what people say about her performance in the comments. We can't stop listening to her last album around my house.
The Michael Jackson Tribute begins. It's in 3-D, set to the tune "Earth Song." I forgot to get my red and blue glasses from Target (even though I blogged about it earlier) so it's like I ate some bad sushi or something. And Celine Dion just walked out to make matters worse. Usher's out there too, and now here comes Carrie Underwood followed by Jennifer Hudson. There's two of all of them, which makes four American Idol contestants at once. And here comes Smokey Robinson. I hope one of the Na'vi from "Avatar" sing the chorus.
Lionel Richie gives Michael Jackson's kids, Prince and Paris, their father's lifetime achievement award. It's a touching moment as the kids each say a few words. "Our father was aways concerned about the planet and humanity," says Prince. "We will continue to spread his message and help the world."
"Daddy was going to perform this year," says Paris. "Thank you we love you, Daddy."
Reading the comments from readers–"off-pitch" "flat" "Terri-ble!!!"–about Taylor Swift's performance, I think she's lucky Simon Cowell wasn't judging her tonight. Swift is a true talent, and her first two albums are loaded with great songs, but people didn't seem that high on her singing tonight.
Bon Jovi come out to sing their new song "We Weren't Born to Follow." (A side note: a fellow reporter ran into Jon Bon Jovi in a green room and said he was nice to everyone, including the woman putting on his makeup. He apparently only plays a rock star onstage, and off-stage is just a nice guy.) Tonight, Bon Jovi is joined by Jennifer Nettles from Sugarland for "Who Says You Can't Go Home." They finish up with a song picked by the fans: "Livin' on a Prayer."
Rhianna, Jay-Z and Kanye West win for "Run This Town" for Rap/Song Collaboration. It's a solid song. Kanye's not there when they go to the mike.
Wyclef Jean comes out. "Despite what you see on the news, the Haitian people are strong," he says. He introduces Mary J. Blige and Andrea Bocelli who perform Simon & Garfunkel's "Bridge Over Troubled Water," accompanied by David Foster on piano. It's a moment that reminds me of when Aretha Franklin sang "Nessun Dorma" as a last-minute replacement for Luciano Pavarotti on the 1998 Grammy broadcast. Bocelli and Blige make the song work for them, and their voices, however unlikely, work well together.
Adam Sandler comes out dressed like a schlub and introduces the Dave Matthews Band.
Neil Portnow, the president of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (NARAS), comes out. He talks about stuff that NARAS has done. He makes a plea for music education in the public schools. He also asks folks to compensate musicians for the music they love. Then he brings out Adam Sandler. "I was told this was gonna be casual dress," says Sandler, who comes out in a t-shirt with a sport jacket draped over it. He introduces the Dave Matthews Band, who play "You & Me."
Lea Michele ("Glee") and Ricky Martin present together. They give out the award for Best Female Vocal Performance. It goes to Beyonce for "Halo." Her dress looks like it was made out of recycled materials. And by the time I finish typing this, Beyonce is done with her speech.
Beyonce is visibly nervous and thanks "my husband." Oddly, she never seems to say the words "Jay-Z." Steve Kroft tried to get her to address the rapper by name tonight on 60 Minute to no avail.
Soul singer Maxwell comes out and sings "Pretty Wings." He is joined by Roberta Flack and they sing "Where Is the Love." Flack sang this in the 1970s with Donny Hathaway.
Guitarist Jeff Beck and singer Imelda May pay tribute to Les Paul with "How HIgh the Moon." Her voice is oddly miked and it's hard to hear her above the instrumentation. But maybe the focus is supposed to be on Beck's guitar anyway.
And the Grammy for best Elvis impersonator of the night goes to Quentin Tarantino.
Lil Wayne, Drake and Eminem are performing with Travis Barker on drums.
They're bleeping out much of the performance.
A Target commercial just ran featuring Pearl Jam. I guess they're sticking it to the man by selling the man's kids their albums at reasonable prices.
Lady Gaga appears to be wearing an origami hat.
And Taylor Swift wins Album of the year. We figured she'd have a big night and she did. "We get to take this back to Nashville," she says. She thanks her mom and dad. "This is the story we're going to be telling over and over again," she says.
John Legend bids everyone good night.
So what did you think of the album of the year choice? Feel free to sound off in the comments.
Good night!

hello, i am trying to change the default text, "What I'm Doing..." to something new. i updated it in the php file before uploading it to my server, but it doesn't change when rendering on my page. does anyone know how to alter this text?
hello, i am trying to change the default text, "What I'm Doing..." to something new. i updated it in the php file before uploading it to my server, but it doesn't change when rendering on my page. does anyone know how to alter this text?
I've been wondering this as well... I'll take another peek through the source, but I could only find one reference to "What I'm Doing..." which I replaced.
After downloading twitter-tools, line 570 in the file is the "What I'm doing.." line. You can also edit this inside the Widget panel by clicking on the Twiter-Tools Menu on the right hand side of that Widget.
If you both are still having problems with it, you may need to contact the plugin author.
I've just doubled checked - it was indeed line 570 which I edited, before I uploaded and activated the plug in again. No luck as yet.
Having had a further dig around, I've checked the wp_options table in the WordPress database which drives the site.
The plugin stores various bits of information there, all of which start with "aktt_" in the option_name field. These save things like Twitter Name and password, as well as other Twitter Tools settings.
One of these is "aktt_widget" which has the option_value "a:1:{s:5:"title";s:17:"What I'm Doing...";}".
I imagine that this field is set only when you first activate the plugin. When I removed the plugin completely, then reinstalled it, it "remembered" my username/password details - and the old "What I'm Doing..." text, even though the newly reinstalled plugin did not have this text.
I tried editing this field to my own custom text instead of What I'm Doing, but this just caused it to display "a" (without quotes) in the Widget.
I'm currently deleting the "aktt_" prefixed options, with the intention of completely removing the plugin. Then I'll edit the plugin before its uploaded, and upload it "as new". Hopefully that will work!
If it really gives you hell, Try using the Simple Twitter plugin. I use it in the main because my sidebar isn't widget ready yet. Seems to work fine.
If possible, change the "What I'm Doing" text before you upload and activate Twitter Tools - it saves a lot of effort. To do this, follow the instructions from step 2 below.
If you've already installed Twitter Tools and wish to change the "What I'm Doing" text, the following instructions should work - follow them from start to finish.
They may well be a bit of an overkill. Those steps marked * may not be necessary, but I've not tried it. The following steps completely remove Twitter Tools, as far as I can tell, and mean you have to re-enter your preferences and login details. However, they seem to work fine.
1) Completely deactivating/removing Twitter Tools, which comprises the following steps:
1a) Preventing the widget from displaying (Presentation->Widgets. drag the widget from wherever you've put it into "Available Widgets" so it does not display)
1b) Deactivating it in WordPress Plugins->Plugins
* 1c) Removing the "wp_ak_twitter" table (this removes cached copies of your Tweets).
1d) Removing Twitter Tools' settings from the wp_option tables: these are those rows where option_name is prefixed with "aktt_".
* You may not need to remove ALL the rows, but I haven't tried half-measures. It is removing these various rows which mean you have to reset your options, such as username/password, once you've reinstalled the plugin.
You do need to remove one crucial row:, "aktt_widget"
It is VERY IMPORTANT you complete step 1a (and possibly 1b) before doing this - I didn't the first time I tried, and odd things happened!
1e) Having completed the above, delete "twitter-tools.php" from your plugins directory.
2) Changing the "What I'm Doing" text to whatever you want:
2a) Go to your local copy of "twitter-tools.php". At line 570, find the text
"'title' => __("What I'm Doing...", 'twitter-tools')"
Change the text What I'm Doing... to whatever you want - be careful not to remove or alter the inverted commas on each side ("").
2b) Upload this copy of twitter-tools.php to your plugins directory.
3) Install Twitter Tools as normal
3a) Activate it in WordPress Plugins->Plugins
... and proceed as normal: your username/password and other options.
3b) Re-enable the Widget in Presentation->Widgets
I hope that is of use to everyone.
Great post, this worked for me. Thanks a bunch.

Director: Mike John
Company: Anabolic Video Productions
Cast: Jade (I), Claudia Adkins, Lexington Steele, Mr. Marcus, Amanda (I), Nikita Denise, Omar (I), Justine Romee, Fawnna
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: All-Sex
For fans of anal, interracial and hot babes getting d.p.'d by well-hung studs.
For fans of interracial, it doesn't get much better than this. Up Your Ass 16 is almost two and a half solid hours of non-stop, no holds barred, unapologetic anal adventure. Lexington Steele, Mr. Marcus and Omar never falter in their quest to plunder ripe-and-ready ass, although some scenes stand out more than others. The opener with Nikita Denise and Steele is a scorcher; Nikita works Steele's love knob unmercifully, grinding her stuff down to his balls with unbridled glee. Then of course there's Justine Romee... ayeeemama! This beauty doesn't even flinch at the prospect of getting double-teamed by two of the, uh, biggest porn stars in America. Quite the contrary; she's pure sexual hellcat, arching her back in bliss while being lifted up between the two for a hard hammering. And that's before they even stick it up her bum, folks. Definitely worth a watch (or two or three) and a pre-nom for Best Group Sex Scene - Video. The rest of the sex scenes ain't chopped liver, either.

Warning: spoilers for the Breaking Bad finale are ahead. Last chance to turn back!
If you thought the final scenes of Breaking Bad felt familiar, there's a reason for that. According to creator Vince Gilligan, the writers drew inspiration from the 1956 Western The Searchers in approaching Walter White's daring rescue of Jesse Pinkman from a group of murderous neo-Nazis.
"John Wayne is chasing after Natalie Wood's character; she's been taken by the Comanches, and he keeps saying, 'When I find her, I'm gonna kill her.' When he finds her, he sweeps her up and says, 'Let's go home,'" Gilligan said during an appearance on The Colbert Report this week. That scene inspired the Bad finale, wherein Walt casts aside his hatred of Jesse upon seeing his abused state, and decides to save his life. "We stole from the best," he said.
As for the final fate of Walter White — accidentally killed by his own bullet — Gilligan said the "hero" had to die, as was promised in the show's pilot.
"It seemed like the implicit promise in the show from the first episode," he said. "In the first episode, he is told he has about two years to live. It feels as if we should adhere to our promise that we explicitly made to our audience."
