Mislabeled photo of Pluto[edit]
The size comparison photo including Pluto, Charon, Ceres, and Earth had Pluto mislabeled as Eris. The photo is clearly a Hubble image of Pluto. Corrected the caption. 220.127.116.11 (talk) 20:21, 17 April 2015 (UTC)
As this article was obviously created in an attempt to highlight potential loopholes in the Wikipedia reliable sources ruleset I'm a little reluctant to suggest that it's failed. Bravo on trying to cheat the system into lending both bandwidth and credence to conspicuous cabbagery, and great work on the flagrantly redundant replication of information from the main article on Ceres, however it may be prudent, in subsequent attempts at perversion, to actually identify a loophole first before trying to ram the joke home so vigourously. Hitting the 'no personal homepages as a source' rule square on the nose might embody a spirit of ebullient anarchy, but it's also liable to trip the alarm system. Good luck in future endevours to subvert the system, and long may this and other such ejaculations fly under the radar of the enabled here at Wikipedia. ◄ИΞШSΜΛЯΞ► 23:12, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
- Disagree. It seems a good and interesting article, although with little information. Good enough. Since a kid I read this kind of ideas in astronomy books, and I don't get it why you think it is not encyclopediac. -Pedro 11:54, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
- Speaking for myself, I'm not entirely sure why any attempt to subvert any part of Wikipedia should be cause for congratulation. It's not proving anything, since it's a given that any system can be corrupted by those with sufficient desire to see it fail. In other words, there is nothing clever in doing so. I'm sure Wikipedians have a sense of humour, in general - but even so, this is an encyclopedia. See a joke article, laugh about it by all means, then delete it. There is a clear difference between those who highlight failings in a system out of a genuine desire to drive its improvement, and those who simply derive pleasure from seeing or contributing to the disruption of the system. The former can be tolerated as they help to develop the system. But there is no reason to indulge or excuse the selfish motives of the latter. - Adaru 01:34, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

Rebuttal of Difficulties[edit]
Citation is heavily needed for this article. Shouldn't Ceres be moving with relation to other asteroids in the belt? Nintenfreak 18:42, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
Isn't delta-v just one factor in a much more complex feasibility equation regarding how much fuel the spacecraft would need to carry? The fuel needed depends also on the spacecraft's mass (which shouldn't be assumed to be the same for Mars as for Ceres), on whether the mission includes a (safe) landing (as colonization would) and perhaps a takeoff (assuming the option to return to Earth is strongly desired), on how much fuel can be saved by using gravity-assisted flybys (and a flyby around Jupiter and/or Mars would presumably be more practical for a trip to Ceres than for a trip to Mars), and on whether fuel can be manufactured at the destination (or along the way). Wouldn't more fuel be required for a Mars landing than for a Ceres landing due to the difference in their surface gravity, assuming equally massive spacecraft? (Conversely, couldn't more equipment and people be landed on Ceres given the same amount of "landing" fuel?)
The article neglects to cite a delta-v reference.
My own opinion, for what it's worth, is that it would be silly to colonize inside a strong gravity well such as Mars'; the original Mars colonists might be willing to trap themselves and their descendants in a gravity well, but would their descendants appreciate being trapped? (How do *you* like being trapped on Earth by the enormous expense required to escape?) Also, assuming the asteroid belt has more resources near the surface than Mars has, Ceres and its neighbors could be easier to exploit; don't treat Ceres as if it's as isolated as Mars.
My other opinion is that the cost of space colonization outweighs the benefit. Just send robots for the foreseeable future, and in the meantime figure out how to make Earth more habitable. SEppley (talk) 15:40, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
This is unverified original research[edit]
Has the colonization of Ceres been explored at any length by any reputable, peer-reviewed publisher? The page sourced as the "[proposal]" of 1 Ceres is a self-published source. Dave Boll (to whose page detailing his plan to colonize Ceres), is nowhere mentioned as an astronomer, as an astrophysicist, as a government worker, etc. His page has not been submitted to a peer-reviewed journal. His article is an original, novel synthesis of thoughts without any regard for science. Thus the whole basis of this article is likewise, is an unverified colonization plan.
Unless this article provides verifiable, peer-reviewed colonization research, I plan to nominate it for deletion. This is not a personal attack; I am noting a violation of of two Wikipedia policies: verifiability and no original research.
I think this article is interesting. I found it because of my interest in the solar system. Good luck. I would love to see this article improved, but I will otherwise be a strong advocate for deletion.
Note: I am unable to edit this article myself because of foregoing commitments.
--Iamunknown 02:55, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- I've added a link to a good relevant research.--Nixer 10:42, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- I don't see anything in this stub that can be classified as original research. There are obviously no serious colonization plans; those are just ideas, which astronomers have while writing a book. We can't even go to the moon, our neighbour; colonizing Ceres, for the time being, are just thoughts... I think we should also have article stating how people in late 19th century, or other decades, imagined these worlds, for instance, the tropical Venus theory. It would help when one wants to write history or introductions about the subject. --Pedro 11:25, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- This is original research and the article should be deleted. Gnixon 17:44, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
You are all invited to discuss this on this article's AfD page. Awolf002 18:13, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
Why not just merge this page with the main article on Ceres, under a heading like "potential for colonization"? 18.104.22.168 (talk) 04:41, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
If we are to have speculation on what areas are to be colonized before Ceres then there's no sense in giving Mars special treatment since nothing has been decided in that area yet. Since the Moon, Venus and Mars are all easier targets than Venus I suggest we either include them all, or leave them all out. For those that doubt the delta-v claim, here it is (pdf). Earth to Ceres = 1.29 years. Venus to Ceres = 1.15 years. The faster rotation makes travel to Ceres easier, as well as the greater number of launch windows. I would prefer all speculation be removed, but if we are to include Mars we will need to include the Moon and Venus as well. Mithridates 19:53, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- Ceres definitely an easier target than Venus.--Nixer 20:06, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- The link to the pdf said to support the delta-v claim is broken (404 Not Found.) SEppley (talk) 14:26, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
Please take it up with Geoffrey A. Landis then. He's part of the team that designed the rovers currently running on Mars and he doesn't agree with you. Mithridates 20:18, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
PS - it's not the surface of Venus that's being proposed as a location. Mithridates 20:19, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- I know this paper. Colonising Venus' clouds will not help colonizing Ceres anyway. It is not required to colonize Ceres.--Nixer 20:25, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- Colonizing Mars is not required before colonizing Ceres, but is preferred in the studies I've seen (there is one by Robert Zubrin, for example). It is much easier to get to Ceres from Mars than it is to get to Ceres from Earth, so if you have a large colony on Mars, you can use it to support operations on Ceres. This assumes that Mars is colonized before the asteroids, and you could go direct to Ceres with high-impulse. Hence the 'possibly'. Re. Landis and the colonization of Venus, I have also read the paper. I'm not sure if I trust his results. That, however, is strictly personal and is not to be included on Wikipedia.Michaelbusch 21:23, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
I agree that it's preferable to have Mars colonized before Ceres, but since we're speculating here (such as with high impulse instead of making use of rotational speed of a planet) I see no reason to make the cloudtops of Venus the only exception. I think we're all in agreement that Ceres won't be the first place where colonization will happen so if we are to speculate we might as well include all areas that have been proposed by people with serious qualifications such as Landis et al.Mithridates 21:30, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- Most researches on Mars and Ceres colonizations (i.e. for example, Zubrin) imply Ceres will probably serve a colony on Mars. Since that I cannot say it is speculation. Landis do not say a colony on Venus should necessary precede the colonization of asteroids.--Nixer 06:07, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
I can see your hand all lover this article, terraformer-jumpboy11jStatue2 (talk) 20:30, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
Water Content[edit]
The main article on Ceres says that "A study led by Peter Thomas of Cornell University suggests that Ceres has a differentiated interior: observations coupled with computer models suggest the presence of a rocky core overlain with an icy mantle. This mantle of thickness from 120 to 60 km could contain 200 million cubic kilometres of water, which is more than the amount of fresh water on the Earth.[19][2]"
And yet this article notes that the water content is only 1/10th of Earth's. Which is it? JinnKai 00:45, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
There is a difference between total fresh water and total water on Earth. Ceres may have more fresh water than Earth does, but that is still only about 10% of all of Earth's water (which is mostly salt water, not fresh)Cromdog 20:29, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
How do you colonize a body whose escape velocity is less than 2 km/h? If lifting your legs to walk doesn't send you into space, jumping probably would. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.96.36.199 (talk) 06:44, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
- Ceres has escape velocity of 0.51 km/s, which is not equal to 2 km/h. You cannot jump with 0.5 km/s speed.--Dojarca (talk) 13:03, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
Meaningless references[edit]
The references cited on this page do not support the facts that they claim to.
The reference (currently #5) relating to launch windows and flight times to Ceres refers to theoretical flight times using theoretical nuclear propulsion systems, yet the reader of the article gets the impression that it is referring to existing chemical or ion propulsion systems. To make the issue even worse there are 6 scenarios described in the reference and only 2 of them show that Ceres has a shorter flight time.
The reference (currently #6) relating to energy requirements for transport between various inner solar system bodies references a 17 page document by Robert Zubrin which does not specifically say anything about this subject.
I recommend that the whole Strategic Location section be scrapped, since it is an obvious attempt to create a bogus article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Perlscrypt (talk • contribs) 21:12, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
some info to glean for inclusion[edit]
The above objections to this article are really quite snotty. If you spent half the time looking for material with which to improve it, as you did writing pithy prose to persuade us that it's a bad article, the article would be vastly improved by now.
Some claims which make Ceres a compelling site for a mining base, are: Hydrogen is a key element needed for the extraction of oxygen from rocks, and while it is the most-abundant element in the universe, it is relatively rare in space. Delta-v cost to carry water from Ceres to elsewhere in the solar system is lower than from just about anywhere else.
These claims ought to be supportable. Let's find the references.
A google search for +ceres asteroid "water mining" references -wikipedia returns, among other things, these..

I agree, the first two sources are not good. The first source's link is broken and the second source doesn't appear to be a scholarly peer-reviewed source. I did take down the notability flags however, since there seems to be some discussion of the subject. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.96.36.199 (talk) 00:16, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
Notability and references[edit]
I removed the flags for notability and lack of references, since there are secondary sources. Since there are a good number of sources, and since the topic probably couldn't easily be merged into another article, I beleive the subject is notable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 22.214.171.124 (talk) 00:12, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
- I noticed that the first reference includes a dead link, so I thought about replacing it with this one:
- Whitten, Zachary V. (30 April 2006). "Use of Ceres in the Development of the Solar System" (PDF). Retrieved 20 May 2013.
- Is that a good idea or not? The links seems to be alive but who knows how long? Nikolas Ojala (talk) 21:49, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
Potential difficulties[edit]
This section is unsourced and appears to reflect a bias toward surface colonization. There's no reason why a colony can't be built underground or in the presumed ice, where it would be well shielded. A rotating underground colony would also provide gravity. Not sure how you'd reference this though. Regards, RJH (talk) 01:06, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
Past colonization?[edit]
Has anyone seen any discussion of past colonization of Ceres we could cite? The same advantages that are described in this article should apply, after all, to anyone who has previously been in the system, such as any inhabitants of Venus prior to its resurfacing. As the exploration mission approaches we'll have a chance to keep a close eye on the NASA site and see if we can make out any interesting structures. :) Wnt (talk) 18:45, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
Not a reliable article and source[edit]
Looking at the reference #1 rang an alarm bell. A brief search for the name Zachary V. Whitten, reveals no hits in Google Scholar and no credentials nor afiliations are to be found. What is most disturbing, is that his "paper" was not published in a scientific journal of any kind, so it was not peer-reviewed favorably. The article is hosted by a personal blog. While this source seems to be the catalyst for this Wikipedia article, the author seems to be an aficionado. This pivotal reference is of extremely low scientific reliability. See: WP:RELIABLE. Cheers, BatteryIncluded (talk) 17:45, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
- Enough. The scant reliable reference are about mining. The book ref # 1 "Asteroid Mining 101" is a good discussion about the resources that are available in asteroids and how they could one day be extracted. BatteryIncluded (talk) 19:55, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

The Honda team has prototype works bikes, but based on results they aren't up to snuff just yet. Rui Goncalves (999) is currently 11th in the 450 points.
Tony Cairoli holeshot in the first 450 moto, but Christophe Pourcel passed him on the first lap. Gautier Paulin was the man on the move and he passed Antonio Cairoli on lap six (and Clement Desalle would get Tony C also). Pourcel won the moto with Paulin second, Desalle third Cairoli fourth and David Philippaerts fifth.
In moto two, Gautier Paulin led from start to finish. First moto winner, Pourcel, raced around in fifth place, but by the end had moved to second with Cairoli third. Fill-in rider Ken DeDycker was fourth in front of Evgency Bobryshev.

Ken DeDycker may be considered a "plodder," but the fill-in rider is getting the job done at KTM. Riding a two-year old works bike, Big Ken is fourth in points and was fourth in Bulgaria. Photo: Ray Archer
Clement Desalle is considered Tony Cairoli's toughest competition ? but that hasn't happened yet.
The other half of the works Honda team, Evgeny Bobryshev (777), is also outside of the top ten in points.

In the first 250 moto Tommy Searle holeshot ahead of Joel Roelants and Harri Kullas. Points leader Jeffrey Herlings was in seventh, but by the second lap Herlings had moved into third place. But, that was the best he could do. Searle had brake troubles late in the moto and both Roleants and Herlings passed him. It was Roelants first-ever GP victory.
In moto two Tommy Searle holeshot again,while Herlings had the same mediocre start as in the first moto…and again Herlings moved up to second. Jeffrey Herlings could never get close enough to Tommy Searle and the duo went 1-2 with Roelants third. Searles 3-1 bested Herlings 2-2.

A sixth-grade student has raised more than $400 braiding hair, only to see it go to her orchestra director who's fighting cancer.
"I first started getting into doing hair about three or four months ago," Callie Mashburn said. "Then I thought I could start asking for $3 every time, then give it all to Mr. Moore."
Mashburn calls it, "Project Moore," but that's only until she discovers a name she likes.
"Just one day she told me, 'Mom, I'm going to start braiding hair,' and who am I to tell her no," Carrie Mashburn, Callie's mom said.
Just a few months into her orchestra class students were notified that their Orchestra Director Chase Moore wouldn't return to school for awhile. Moore is battling leukemia for the second time. He has two children, and a wife named Kathryn.
"Well I figured he'd be getting some medical bills, and sometimes it just gets a little more expensive than you expect," Callie said.
When Moore initially heard about Callie's project he was in the hospital. Callie and her mom took the Moore family a tin can filled with more than $400.
"Obviously it's crazy, awesome, exceptional, amazing, crazy, awesome all at the same time," Moore said.
Callie said she's been getting donations from complete strangers. Therefore the two families opened an account at Happy State Bank under Kathryn/Chase Moore, but Callie said that's not going to stop "Project Moore."
"I just hope this inspires others to do the same," Carrie said.

Contraception: Plan A is even better than Plan B | Johnson
Recent publicity about Plan B and other generic emergency contraception products has been controversial.
This whole controversy is politically motivated, not scientifically based, and mired in misinformation. In the midst of it all comes a voice of reason.
My friend and colleague, Amy Lang, runs a business called Birds + Bees + Kids. We both present workshops for parents about how to — gulp — talk to your kids about sex.
Amy Lang said: "Bothered by Plan B? How about Plan A — that would be you getting over yourself and talking to your kids about sex. All of it. Seriously… quit freaking out about your child being able to get this very safe drug that will prevent you from becoming a grandparent when you aren't ready and start talking to your kids about sex. Plan A. It's what'll make the difference."
We can argue like the federal government, the Reagan-appointed judge, and the FDA, about the safety and availability of Plan B.
We can argue about how pregnancy is determined.
We can argue about if this medication should be available and at what age young women should be able to access it, and whether it should require a prescription or be available over the counter.
But actually, I'm not interested in arguing with you.
What's really important is Plan A.
Talk to your kids about sex.
By early elementary school, if they aren't asking, tell them how babies are made. Tell them how babies get into a woman's body and how babies get out. Use proper terms, like uterus, vagina, penis, sperm, and egg, so that when they are approaching middle school, they don't still think a baby grows in a stomach.
This isn't wrecking their innocence. This is helping them understand the miracle of life.
Before they enter middle school, tell them about different types of sex that people have: oral, anal, and vaginal. Let them know this so they don't think they aren't having sex if they have oral or anal sex, or that they are safe if they do so. Sexually transmitted infections can be spread whether the sexual activity is oral, anal, vaginal, or even manual.
They should also know there are ways for people to prevent STD/STI transmission and prevent pregnancy. Talk about abstinence and make sure they know what that means. Let them know they can choose abstinence at any point in their life, whether they are in a relationship or not, married or not, have engaged in certain activities before or not. Sexual activity should always be their choice, and if it's not, it's illegal. That's called sexual assault or rape.
Tell them condoms or other latex barrier methods are the next best thing to abstinence for preventing disease transmission. Let them know there are many forms of birth control, and that sexually active people need to use both a condom and hormonal method of birth control if they want to prevent pregnancy and disease.
Again, this is not destroying their innocence. This is giving them potentially life-saving information from a trusted source (you) to help them when they are facing tough and tempting decision points, or to help them advise friends who don't have trusted adults like you who will tell them the real scoop.
Talk with them — more than once. In fact, a few hundred shorter conversations are much better than one big one.
Parents, I urge you to put your time, energy, and arguments into Plan A. The more we do that, the less any of us will need to worry about Plan B.

Business News of 2014-07-06
State-of-the-art security installations ongoing at KIA
The authority of the Kotoka International Airport (KIA) as from this year, begun the installation of state-of the-art surveillance systems at the airport to curb frequent occurrences of thefts at the airport
The installation of Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) systems began about six weeks ago and is expected to be completed by September 2014.
The new system has a technology called video analytics superimposed on it which would make it issue an alert if someone tries to do something out of the ordinary, such as trying to divert luggage from the normal route, takes or cover a camera with something.
In an interview with the Ghana News Agency (GNA), Captain General E. B. Komeng Retired, Director Aviation, Security of KIA noted that stealing or pilfering had become an inevitable part of the aviation industry worldwide, with some people coming to airports purposely to steal.
"Over time, such people had become experts at what they do, and authorities need state-of-the-art technology, including full body scanners to deal with the phenomenon," he added.
Captain (Rtd) Komeng noted that "Without technology, you cannot win and that is what the airport is trying to do. The old system did not have that kind of technology".
According to him, the CCTV, for the first time, would cover all areas of the airport including the airside, landside, terminal buildings and the perimeter fence, making it possible to view all grey areas and ensure security at the airport.
Captain (RTD) Komeng also revealed that a Perimeter Intrusion Detection (PID) system would also be installed after work on the CCTV installation is done. This system would issue audible alerts when anyone intrudes into the airport perimeter or the airside and show the location of the intrusion for action to be taken.
Although stealing sometimes occurs right at the airport, others usually occur in the aircraft holds where aviation security personnel are usually not allowed except in emergencies. This is because airlines have their own private security companies as well as ground handlers who are allowed into the aircraft hold, giving some loaders and private security persons the opportunity to connive.
So far several of these have been caught and sacked from the airport and some handed over to the police for prosecution. On average, about four arrests are made in a month and 12 quarterly for stealing alone, aside other offenses.
In order to address this challenge, the airport is drafting a service level agreement that will be signed between the airport and the ground handlers and private security companies operating at the airport.
The agreement, Captain (RTD) Komeng noted would help set out standards of service expected from personnel of these companies.
Currently there are two main ground handling companies that handle aircrafts at the KIA: Aviance and AHS Menzes as well as a third company, Air Ghana Perishable Cargo, which handles only perishable cargo, he said.
Another challenge in the quest to fight stealing at the airport, the Captain said, is the inability of the police to present watertight prosecutions to secure convictions of culprits.
This, he said " the police are not well equipped to understand the airport security processes and procedures, the breach of which amounts to criminal conduct and thus are not able to prove in court that the culprit actually committed the crimes they were arrested for".
Adding "most of the culprits get away with only their airport Identification Cards (IDs) ceased and not being able to work at the airport again. Also, aviation security officials who give evidence openly in court, especially in drug-related cases are sometimes threatened by the suspects.
The airport has, therefore, written to the attorney general to allow such officers to give their evidence in camera but that has not been done, making officers hesitate to give evidence in such cases".
"Because of this, we think it would be good to have a specialised aviation court to handle aviation related theft cases" he noted.
Other interventions to stem the incidence of theft at the airports include random operations with aviation security and the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) where at certain periods to cover sensitive areas where such incidents are likely to occur.
Captain (RTD) Komeng however emphasised that the issue required a joint effort both on the part of the airport and passengers.
"It would very much help he said if passengers whose items are stolen at the airport report such cases immediately they happen, as this would increase chances of the culprit being caught. Also, passengers should not pack valuable items such as cash, electronic gadgets and jewelry in their checked-in luggage as these show when the bags are screened and potential thieves can then identify their bags and steal them" he stated.
Captain (RTD) Komeng, therefore, urged passengers who have lost items to check with the lost and found section of the airport as it is likely such items may have been found and kept there.
"There are many lost and found items in our possession and we are looking at ways of listing them online so that people can go to the website and identify their things," he said.

An extraordinary season came to an end yesterday, reasserting my belief that the English Premier League still provides the most exciting football in the world.
A magnificent season went all the way to the wire, with the title, Champions League places and relegation battle all decided on the final day; the twists, turns, and unpredictability leaving the whole season on a knife-edge until the final whistle was blown.
Now, with the season over, we can reflect on some of the incredible action and recognise those players who have given their all for the cause.
This is my 2011-12 Premier League team of the year.

They say spring is a time of rebirth and renewal, in baseball and in life. But you know how these life-cycle metaphors work, where there is rebirth there is also death—lots and lots of death.
Percentage-wise, there are bound to be more dreams dashed than fulfilled this spring training, which, as always, will include the dashed dreams of some pretty prominent names.
Too young, too old, too...bad—whatever the reason for the cut, we know they are a-comin'.
So who might find their neck on ye olde chopping block?

Primal urges
It is in the weekend supplement, home to self indulgent look at me crap, of the Sydney Morning Herald. No wonder print media are struggling
Primal urges
It is in the weekend supplement, home to self indulgent look at me crap, of the Sydney Morning Herald. No wonder print media are struggling
Four years Primal with influences from Jaminet & Shanahan and a focus on being anti-inflammatory. Using Primal to treat CVD and prevent stents from blocking free of drugs.
Eat creatures nose-to-tail (animal, fowl, fish, crustacea, molluscs), a large variety of vegetables (raw, cooked and fermented, including safe starches), dairy (cheese & yoghurt), occasional fruit, cocoa, turmeric & red wine
Well, yes, if the only goal is weight loss, starvation is faster, 750 cal/day is faster, speed is faster.
She admits that she has only ever stuck to a diet for an hour. She does the 80/20 thing to eat cake for her birthday. Sounds to me like she had a goal in mind and her "research" was a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Funny how the blueprint covers a ton of stuff: diet, exercise, sleep, sunlight, using one's brain, and play. She focussed on diet, and while that is probably most people's focus in the beginning, I find that I'm improving my well-being by focussing more on the other aspects now. I mean, you get the food thing down. It's not freakin' rocket science. Then you start becoming well rounded by making friends with the other principles.
As some are fond of say, "More meat for me." Let her eat cake.
Another dumb bitch writing about something she knows nothing about, which she demonstrates spectacularly.
Also: "the gay man's gym diet"? HUH????
EDIT: I see in the paragraph that it was her doctor that was the big homophobe, but she chose to write it.
It seems what she was experiencing was a loss of enjoyment of food. Something that definitely happened to me as well at that point. Once I became fully fat adapted and understood that I was no longer driven by terrible hunger due to glucose plunges, food became delicious again. Perhaps she will come back to it when her gut reacts to the reintroduction of grains.

Waaahhhhh....it's hard to do....
Known as the falio diet?!? Bitch please.
And when she tells us how good she is feeling - To be fair, I can see some positives. I fancy that my skin has a glow about it that seems to have been missing for at least a decade. My stomach is flatter; my digestive organs seem cheerier, without a trace of bloating or indigestion. I haven't been hungry: the feed-the-man-meat breakfasts are mostly keeping me happy until lunch.
But that is not enough because she is board without tasteless bread and pasta....sigh.
Eating primal is not a diet, it is a way of life.
Don't forget to play!
Good. I'm glad she declared the diet not worth it. At least she described every aspect of it accurately. There will be somebody out there whose interest will be triggered. A look at her picture will tell them not to listen to her final pronouncement. All her talk about eating real food, losing weight, flatter stomach, better digestion and skin will be enough. All her talk of liking ice cream, cake and pasta more than health will be enough. Meanwhile, all the others who agree with her that it's not worth it, great! More fresh healthy stuff for me.
Female, 5'3", 50, Max squat: 202.5lbs. Max deadlift: 225 x 3.
That thing about "I've never stuck to a diet for more than an hour" seems to indicate that she's looking for a pill that will make her problems go away and she can keep doing what she has always done.
I really don't think that because she decided this way of eating is not for her warrants calling her a "dumb bitch." It sounds like she did her research and knows the basics, but in the end, likes her carbs too much to sacrifice them. What's the big deal and why does it grind your personal gears that much?
In our breakfast yesterday (out), DH forgot to sub the toast on his plate for veg. He offered me a bite.
This toast is an expensive, locally made, whole grain sourdough. In the past, this would have been a monthly indulgence -- beautiful bread with lovely local butter. I took a bite and was like "bleh, paper pulp." That's what it tasted like to me!
Two things have happened since I started IFing 2 weeks ago -- in terms of food that is as lots of things hvae happened -- the first is that whenever I have any sugar (in the form of white), i get a headache within about 10 minutes of eating it. in the past two weeks, that constitutes 4 gummy dinosaurs (all natural for DS), and half a brownie with DH on our anniversary. And yesterday, I discovered that toast is tasteless.
I don't know why the IFing made this big difference (since Ive been primal for so long and eating well over 90-95% primal), but in the two weeks since we started, it's like. . . yeah, rapid response.
Anyway, I'm not recommending IFing or anything. I just find it interesting that I didn't really care about bread/pasta/etc one way or the other before, but good bread was sometimes nice. But now? Nah.
I really don't miss it. our restaurant 'big breakfast' was gorgeous yesterday: 2 scrambled free range eggs in butter, sauteed spinach, mushrooms, tomato, avocado, and bacon. I had water to drink, and finished with a cup of tea. Lovely. Who needs toast?

Fifty shades of green
The Brooklyn Navy Yard (TBNY), once renowned as a mainstay of American military shipbuilding, fell into disuse and disrepair in the years after World War II, and soon became notorious as one of the worst toxic industrial sites in America. Enter biotech entrepreneur Anselm Doering, president and CEO of EcoLogic Solutions, with his idea of producing a nontoxic commercial sanitizer by the electrical charging of seawater. When ionized, seawater is converted into a cleaning agent and sanitizer that destroys pathogenic bacteria, fungi and molds, but is nontoxic to people and animals. Doering's first production plant was located in a basement at TBNY. Its subterranean location and the original water pipes running through it maintain a comfortable year-round room temperature, eliminating the need for central heating and cooling systems. As his business prospered and grew, Doering began greening additional space at TBNY, including the creation of organic rooftop gardens. Today, TBNY is a shining example of green technology housed in green buildings producing green crops at a green tourism destination.
Closer to home, The Catskill Art Society, the Pocono Environmental Education Center, and Amy's Take-Away Restaurant all boast of converting abandoned buildings into green tourist attractions. What was once a cinema on Main Street in Livingston Manor is now an art gallery and exhibition/lecture space. Honeymoon Haven Hotel in Dingmans Ferry has become the Pocono Environmental Education Center, hosting interactive biology education exhibits for schoolchildren and tourists of all ages. And the former H.G. Lane General Store in Lanesville has been resurrected as Amy's Take-Away Restaurant, a New Age restaurant catering to locals and tourists alike.
Erin Burch, outreach coordinator of Catskill Mountainkeeper, introduced the outdoor activities workshop, where speakers from Trailkeeper.org and Delaware & Ulster Railroad demonstrated how digital media has made green recreational activities safer, more accessible and more user-friendly. The same speakers explained how light-impact activities can make a big impact on the local economy through the use of downloadable interactive maps that depict proximity of tourist attractions and facilities to public lands, trailheads and one another.

Charlotte City Council Close To Finalizing Deal To Keep Panthers Until '27
Published February 11, 2013
INVESTMENT PLAN: In Charlotte, Erik Spanberg noted a total of $302.5M would be invested in the team -- which includes payments from the city, state and team -- and $250M of that total would be dedicated to stadium upgrades. The Panthers' share would be $96.25M. Sources said that the "state could help the team in other ways, perhaps through incentives or other inducements." One clause in the city contract "gives the city the option to buy the stadium from the Panthers if the franchise relocated in the five years following the 15-year commitment." Shifting the "burden of game-day traffic control expenses would remove a longstanding source of frustration for the Panthers." A Panthers spokesperson said that the team "would comment on the stadium issue next week." Foxx said that Richardson was "emotional" when he met with Foxx and the City Council on Friday (BIZJOURNALS.com, 2/8).
BEHIND CLOSED DOORS: An OBSERVER editorial was written under the header, "Unnecessary Secrecy Cloaks Panthers Deal." It is "distressing the city has been so secretive and plans to raise taxes more than required." The Panthers are a "treasure for Charlotte." They create "jobs and ignite economic activity while creating an undeniable cachet." The $125M they "sought from the city may feel like blackmail but is much smaller than what other cities are paying to keep their NFL teams happy." Foxx, Richardson and the council "shouldn't be so scared of the public who would benefit, and who would foot the bill" (CHARLOTTE OBSERVER, 2/9). In Charlotte, Mark Washburn sarcastically wrote, "We did it!" Washburn: "We did it behind closed doors so the public would be spared the boredom of listening to the facts. ... We did it without ever learning what the money is going to go for. An escalator and a scoreboard?" (CHARLOTTE OBSERVER, 2/10).

The shorts are going to start circlng this stock like sharks in a feeding frenzy. It may run this week & next. But be careful!!!
I agree with you. The closer it gets up on the list the more recongnition it will receive. Just look at ERS after it got on the list and check the stock price since. The chart was a great one, ( still is ) but until the shorts jumped in, it's been all over the place. IBD is a wonderful tool, but it draws all the unwanted bashers after a stock goes in the top 5 list. It's what trading and investings all about.

Early next year, Intel plans to convert from an 8-inch to a 12-inch manufacturing wafer for its microprocessors. In doing so, Intel will save more than 30% in manufacturing costs while producing more chips per wafer.
"Intel will be the lowest-cost producer, enhancing its gross margins and giving the company an edge in any price war," explained Ashok Kumar, an analyst at US Bancorp Piper Jaffray.
AMD officials recognise the advantage of moving from the company's current 8-inch manufacturing process to a larger wafer. While the US-based chip maker will not officially confirm or deny plans to move to a 12-inch wafer, company sources believe an increase to some larger wafer size is a "when" and not an "if" scenario for AMD.
Both AMD and Intel are rapidly moving to 0.13-micron transistor technology for their chips; AMD early next year and Intel before the end of 2001, according to officials of both companies. Intel is building new fabrication plants (fabs) for 12-inch production in line with its transition to 0.13-micron technology. AMD's recently opened German fab, designed to produce 0.13-micron chips, builds chips on 8-inch wafers.
Intel appears to be ready to capitalise on any head start.
"If we move out on a larger wafer before [AMD] does, they'll basically be forced to move faster [toward 12-inch wafer production]," an Intel source said.
Kumar believes Intel has as much as a 12-month lead on AMD in moving to a larger wafer size.
Todd Kort, a principal analyst at Gartner , says AMD's chip pricing is already low enough for the company to maintain a strong market share even against a ramped-up Intel, but agrees that "there is some threat" from Intel's move to 12-inch wafers.
"There will be a point in the future when AMD finds itself at a disadvantage," said Kort.
