I have fine hair, but I have a lot of it. It has this fun little wave in it that makes me either straighten my hair or go full on beach waves...so I must use product in my hair...all the time! This is great for scrunching my hair and getting great waves without being all crunchy as well as providing great lift for the days I straighten my hair too. Great product!5
I have the thinnest, limpest hair ever seen on planet earth and it's even worse in Denver where the air is so dry. I've tried so many different volumizing products and never found anything that works until this one. This gives my hair so much life and texture. I'm not the sort of person to be loyal to a beauty product, but this will be the first.5
I'm not exaggerating when I say this is the only styling product that has ever lived up to my expectations.. I have fine, straight hair that has never done anything for me. This mousse adds volume and just enough hold without leaving behind a sticky residue. I've never been someone who received compliments on my hair, but this product changed everything for me. I hope Birchbox continues to carry this product for years to come.5

Blood Moon FeastBlanch & Shock (UK)
The Blind Leading the Blind
The Wolf In the Winter (ES/DE/NL/UK)
The festival opens with a feast by radical food designers Blanch & Shock in a canalside urban garden. It has been directly inspired by and sourced from the garden at Edible Eastside and the agricultural environs of Birmingham. In the run up to the feast they have made several preserving trips to the garden to take advantage of the produce in its prime, including tomatoes red and green, cucumbers, courgettes, coriander, dill, fennel and bergamot. For the feast they will serve a combination of fresh and preserved produce, focusing mostly on fruit and vegetables grown in the garden and nearby, accompanied by freshly made cheese and their homemade bread and butter. In addition to the produce, they will be using Edible Eastside's wood-fired oven and much of the food will be prepared in this or grilled over wood.
In parallel, performance collective Wolf In The Winter will create an intervention inspired by Bruegel's 'Blind leading the Blind', a painting of six ragged figures stumbling across a rural landscape.

Cultural Italy – Tuscan Sun Festival 2008
Tuscany is one of Italy's most beautiful provinces renowned for its scenery and artistic heritage especially Florence its capital. During early August there is the Tuscan Sun Festival being held in Cortona and this is the 6th annual fair to be held.
The Tuscan Sun Festival is for anyone who is experiencing one of those dreadful summers where it seems like the sun never returned after the winter. This festival is the perfect remedy for just such a summer and it consists of a number of musical concerts, some visual arts exhibitions, some literary discussions and a few gourmet extravaganzas. The festival runs from August 2nd to August 10th.
The musical line up consists of a number of concerts of various sizes in venues like the Teatro Signorelli and a few others. Some of the names you can expect include the likes of Piotr Anderszewski, Joshua Bell, Andrea Marcon, the Venice Baroque Orchestra, Ana Maria Martinez, Gabrielle Montero, Antonio Pappano, Robert Redford, and many more.
In the art area you can explore the abstract art of Sibylle Szagger; the Shape of Colour, a photographic collection by Jose Cura; or Le Forme del Bello a collection of works from over 20 artists.
As for the literary section you can attend lectures from an international group of prominent writers and poets such as Maurizio Bettelli, Alessandro Carrera and Diego Zancani.
When it comes to food and wine you are sure to be salivating at the prospect of tasting the Tuscan dishes being served up. If you wish to learn how to cook these dishes yourself you can learn in the demonstration called Cooking with Mamma. There will also be some pre-concert meetings called Toasting Tuscany which will feature some meats, cheeses and canapés all accompanied by the best of local wines. And one major event is the 16th century banquet with an authentic 16th century menu; and during thee meal there will be a lecture on the life and times during the Italian Renaissance.
How to get there: This event is being held in Cortona, Tuscany. This town is easily located about two thirds of the way from Rome to Florence. From Rome you would simply head north towards Florence on the A1 motorway; Cortona is about 200kms along this route. From Florence you would head south on the same motorway; but only travelling about 100kms instead.
Along with this upcoming Festival, there really is so much to do and see in and around Italy, so why not try our car hire Italy option, or read one of our other Italy blogs and make your holiday to Italy a more memorable one.
If you still have some unanswered questions please ask us and we will do our best to answer them?

Bloomberg took out its pencil, paper and calculator and came up with this number: $67 million.
That's how much the news service estimates Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin could save in federal income taxes after having renounced his United States citizenship in advance of social media company's public debut.
Bloomberg reports:
Facebook will be valued at about $100 billion when it goes public this week. What would it take for that valuation to be justified?
As we noted yesterday, the value of a typical big, public company is 15 times the company's annual profit. So a company valued at $30 billion would typically have annual profits of $2 billion.
Facebook will be valued at 100 times its current annual profits. That's because investors expect the company's profits to go through the roof in the coming years.

Pauls Valley Democrat
firstname.lastname@example.com —
It could be anywhere from tasty mild to spicy hot and maybe everything in between when cooks here in Garvin County get the chance to put together their best chili.
The best part is it helps a good cause as proceeds from a chili cook off early next month will benefit the county's 4-H program.
The event, which has no entry fee for cooks, is set to go from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 9 at the Garvin County Fairgrounds in Pauls Valley.
Those who are interested in sampling the tasty selections can get tickets of $5 each from 4-H members throughout the county or at the OSU Extension office in the county courthouse in PV.
Sarah Jolly of the county 4-H program is encouraging any and all cooks to join in with their best chili.
"We want all Garvin County cooks to enter in this chili cook off," Jolly said. "There is no entry fee, and there will be prizes."
There will be two age categories for chili cook off participants — Youth is 18 years old and under, while Adult is 19 and over.
Proceeds from the event will go to help the 4-H program in a couple of different ways.
"A portion of the money goes to benefit their local club and a portion is for the county club," she said.
"It goes to all 4-H activities we sponsor; things like camps or teaching students leadership abilities."
Another positive aspect of the event is it can be a true family thing, said Family and Consumer Sciences educator Carrie Kile
"With the kids we're encouraging them to check with their parents or grandparents to get them involved," Kile said.
"They could have recipes for chili that are handed down through the generations or they can just do it together," she said.
"This should be a family affair, so we encourage people to come together for this."
The entry deadline for the cooks is Friday, Nov. 30.
When the cook off does roll around donations of non-perishable canned food items will also be accepted at the door to benefit area food pantries.
For more information on the event, call the Garvin County 4-H office at 405-238-6681.

Patch would like to thank Natalie Mottl, a Bayport-Blue Point High School student, for providing this article.
Bayport-Blue Point High School students recently competed in the regional DECA competition at Suffolk Community College's Ammerman campus and qualified for state competition later this year.
DECA is a business organization that focuses on marketing, finance, hospitality, and management, while instilling a life-long interest in business, industry, and entrepreneurship.
The team features students interested in the value and mechanisms of business and was led by Bayport-Blue Point business teacher, Michael Plugues, who has stepped into the role of former DECA advisor Doug Monsell, who tragically lost a valiant battle against cancer last year.
Six team members, Chandler Varone, Emily Larsson, Patrick Liu, Ryan Ball, Jonathon Panetta, and Victoria Mercouris qualified for the New York States DECA Competition in Rochester this March. Patrick Liu and Jonathon Panetta both reached the achievement of finishing in the top three in their respective categories.
This is the second consecutive year that the DECA team has qualified for the state competition. Students compete for scholarships and the opportunity to advance to the DECA International Career Development Conference in Anaheim, California.
The team's great achievements reflect on the success of Bayport Blue Point's business program and showcases the lasting legacy from Monsell who shaped Bayport-Blue Point and its business department through new programs such as starting the Bayport-Blue Point DECA chapter.

By KATE COIL
Bluefield Daily Telegraph
Plans for a multi-million-dollar, large-scale renovation to the historic McDowell County Courthouse are currently underway.
Cathy Patton, a spokesperson for the McDowell County Com-mission, said architects are currently working on the design elements of the project and construction should begin in 2014.
"What the architect told me is it would take the rest of the year to get the paperwork done," Patton said. "They want to start construction next year and they will have construction completed by 2016 if all goes as planned. They will decide what part of the courthouse they will start on as it gets closer to time. They will be doing one office or one piece at a time."
Patton said the plans call for the two courthouse buildings to be connected via an enclosed walkway over Wyoming Street between the probation office and courthouse. A parking lot between the probation office and county commission offices will be renovated with elevators and an overhead, glass-enclosed walkway. Another glass enclosure with elevators is planned to connect the courthouse annex and magistrate building as well.
Patton said the architects have brought in Historic Preservation Consultant Michael Gioulis to help maintain the historic aspects of the building during construction.
"They have to retain the historical integrity of the building," she said. "We have brought in a consultant to help make sure all of the historic aspects of the courthouse are protected. Our offices have not been renovated in years. We don't have enough space and we need this to be more conducive to doing businesses with our citizens. It is very exciting because it will give a whole different face to the courthouse and help create the right kind of working atmosphere and an atmosphere that is helpful to the public."
Patton said tax credits awarded to the architect for the project will help keep costs at a minimum for the county.
"Their estimate is it could be multi-million dollars worth of work but the cost is reduced due to tax credits," Patton said. "The county commission will be paying a minimal amount on the construction work. Otherwise, this would not be feasible and we would not be able to afford it because these are tough times."
County Commission President Gordon Lambert said Welch-based Green Tree Consulting, Inc., has been hired to oversee the project.
"We have hired Green Tree to do all the measurements and do all the specs of the building," Lambert said. "They are working on it now. What we are looking at doing is building a parking building and out of that parking building there will be an elevator that will connect people to the lower courthouse that contains the magistrate c court, county commission and an apartment building the EDA has next door. There will be a breezeway coming out of one of the buildings to the second story so people can go into all these different buildings without going outside."
Lambert said the courthouse does not currently meet the new Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance standards for government buildings passed in 2012. Changes to make the building handicap accessible are required by federal law and the West Virginia Courthouse Facilities Improvement Authority.
"It needs to be done," he said. "Our building isn't in the best of shape. The courthouse facilities program for the state said our courthouse is in the worst shape of any in the state. We also have to make it handicap accessible, so we are trying to get up to par on that. We are doing all of this under the historic preservation rules currently in place. It is a very historic courthouse, and we don't want to take away from any of that history. It is very historically significant."
Lambert said this will be the largest renovation the courthouse has ever undergone, but the county will pay less than $100,000 for millions worth of work.
"We have never had a renovation of this scale," he said. "In the past, money and technology has not been there for this type of renovation. We are doing this through tax credit. The company coming in to do this will receive tax credit for their work on the courthouse. It will cost the county less than $100,000 but they have estimated there will $25 million or more work done.
Lambert said officials at the courthouse are very optimistic about the renovations.
"It is very important to the people in McDowell County," Lambert said. "We are so excited about this. It will really change the outlook of Welch and our county overall. This is something we all really, really need."
The McDowell County Courthouse was built in two phases with the first completed in the early 1890s. An addition to the original building was made in 1909. The courthouse is perhaps most famous as the location of the Aug. 1, 1921 deaths of Matewan Police Chief Sid Hatfield and Deputy Ed Chambers who were believed to have killed by Baldwin Felts Detective Agency operatives. Hatfield and Chamber were at the courthouse to testify in a trial regarding a shooting at a coal camp in Mohawk and were killed on the courthouse steps.

His Highness the Aga Khan, Imam (spiritual leader) of some 12-15 million Ismaili Muslims, was speaking at the inauguration of the Ismaili Jamatkhana and Center by Texas Governor Rick Perry.
Describing the multipurpose Center which will combine cultural and education facilities with spaces for quiet contemplation, the Aga Khan said "it will be a place of search and enlightenment, not of anger and of obscurantism.
"It will be a center," he continued, "which will seek to bond men and women of this pluralist country to replace their fragility in their narrow spheres by the strength of civilised society bound together by a common destiny.
Earlier, the Aga Khan described how the Center's architecture sought to reflect "who we are in terms of our beliefs, our cultural heritage and our relation to the needs and contexts in which we live in today's world.
The Aga Khan cautioned against stifling "the strength which comes from the diversity and pluralism of Muslim societies, past and present." "Unfortunately, there are forces at work in the Islamic world that seek to establish such a norm," he warned. "This makes it all the more important that we strive to counter such efforts by employing all the means of intellectual discourse – research, discussion… celebration of innovative projects."
Governor Perry echoed some of these sentiments when he spoke of the need "to heed the lessons of centuries past: that peace among men can never be achieved through division…it can only be achieved when we realise our common hopes, our common bonds, our common humanity.
The Ismaili Jamatkhana and Center is designed by Indian-born Montreal resident Ramesh Khosla, whose previous credits include the World Trade Center concourse. Architect Khosla, himself not a Muslim, has fused design concepts of Islamic inspiration, some going back a thousand years, with materials indigenous to the Southwestern United States. The 11.5 acre site, set by a lake, with a fountain, landscaped gardens and a collection of Islamic decorative art includes exhibition spaces, meeting rooms, space for private prayer and offices for Ismaili community institutions.
The Aga Khan, who is accompanied by his wife, Begum Inaara Aga Khan and his eldest son, Prince Rahim Aga Khan, is on an official visit to Texas at the invitation of Governor Perry, whose guest he will be in Austin tomorrow.
On Tuesday, the Aga Khan departs for Washington DC where he will be an honoured guest at the inauguration of the Smithsonian Folklife Festival on the Mall, exceptionally dedicated this year to the theme of the Silk Road and for which the Aga Khan Trust for Culture is a lead funder and key creative partner.

While flipping through the Dec. 06 Maxim, I came across a familiar sight- a big picture of the Polk SR6500 on page 56.
They had a couple of kind words to say, and profiled some other gear as well:
Kicker L5 12" Solobaric subs, Pioneer AVH-P7800DVD head unit, Sirius Starmate 4, Rockford Fosgate 3Sixty.2 etc.- some reasonable company.
Then they wrecked it IMO, suggesting you power the setup with some Sony Xplode XM-2002GTR amplifiers.
It would be interesting to see how many readers take Maxim's advice and grab up the SR6500s based on profiling the equipment in the mag. Hopefully Polk doesn't have to contend with a crapload of warranty claims from people who tried to power them with "1200 watt" Xplode amps :( as a result.

It's a common complaint: ADHD makes it hard for your child to focus on a task long enough to start it, let alone finish it. While picking up that dirty sock on the floor yourself would be a lot easier, your child needs to learn ways to do tasks and get things done -- eventually, on their own.
These tips and ideas could make both your lives easier.
Explain What You Mean
Telling your child to go clean their room probably won't work. The task is too big for a kid who's easily distracted. And the meaning is hazy: What qualifies as "clean" anyway?
Break down the job into smaller, specific tasks with your child: Put shirts in the drawer, put toys in the basket, put books on the shelf, make the bed. Write them down, so your kid can check off the tasks as they get each one done.
Make Reminders Obvious
Use large and colorful sticky notes. Put them where they'll do the most good, in places where your child needs to remember something. "Brush your teeth" on the bathroom mirror, or "Do you have your backpack?" by the door, for examples.
For ongoing weekly tasks or projects that will take a while, use a calendar. Get a big one. Hang it somewhere your child will see it many times a day. Let them fill in and check off deadlines. For some kids, writing with brightly colored markers will help grab their attention.
Give Rewards
Kids with ADHD need motivation, so try giving a reward when a task is done. You don't have to spoil your child with money, expensive gifts, or food. Rewards can be small. It's more important to give rewards often.
Use something your child wants as a reward. Young kids may be happy with stickers or trading cards. Older kids may prefer time to do something they enjoy, such as using the iPad or their cell phone.
Make rewards as directly related to the chore as possible. For instance, you could give your kid 5 minutes of video game time for every 5 minutes they spend cleaning.
Avoid big, long-term rewards, such as a camping trip if they can keep their room clean for a month. That kind of goal can be too abstract, not concrete and connected enough, to inspire a kid with ADHD.
Help With Time Management
When your child says they'll walk the dog, do their homework, and clean their room in the half-hour before dinner, they're obviously not aware of how long all that will take.
Coach them into coming up with sensible time frames for each piece. They might need your help to figure out what's more important and what can wait, too.
Give your child a timer or alarm, perhaps on a watch or phone, when they're doing a task. Set it to go off every few minutes. If your child has gotten off-track, that sound is a reminder to get back on track.
Be Kind
As frustrating as it can be when your child doesn't follow through, remember that it's not their fault. It's just how their brain works.
Having ADHD is hard for them, too. Your child probably gets corrected or criticized by teachers, peers, and maybe even you many times a day.
Rather than dwell on your child's shortcomings and mistakes, try to keep the focus on their strengths and successes.

It's every rider's dream to create a custom design with a board manufacturer,
and there has been no more deserving rider than Oli. Seeing that he
competes in so many different realms of the sport (boat / winch / cable), it's
crucial that Oli has a board capable of riding at a pro level in all disciplines.
Shaper Tony Logosz teamed up with Oli and together they produced one of
the most progressive Slingshot designs yet. There's far more to this board
than meets the eye. Subtle hourglass channels combine with chined
rails in the tip and tail to create big acceleration into the wake, yet the
features are subtle enough that the board transforms perfectly into a
wake park favorite. Just like the man who endorses it, this board packs
a lot of punch.

The period is called the "golden age" because of the relative peace, law and order, and cultural achievements, again, in northern India.

We normally don't concern ourselves with the claws-out catfights of Hollywood's Blonde Brigade, unless of course they're battling over one steaming hot Mexican American football hero named Tony Romo. Enter the ring, Tony's current girlfriend Jessica Simpson and his ex-flame Carrie Underwood. These perky, flaxen-haired country crooners may be practically indistinguishable from each other on the surface, but ultimately Tony's gonna have to pick just one. We thought we'd give him a little help by putting them through three rounds and seeing which one comes out on top.

"We are not engaged!" she tells Entertainment Tonight. "Tony and I have not gone to Neiman Marcus...somebody said we bought a ring there. I couldn't drag Tony in to Neiman Marcus if I tried."

The Family Assessment Form on CD-ROM
Developed by Children's Bureau of Southern California, the Family Assessment Form (FAF) uses a nine-point rating scale to allow workers to complete a psychosocial assessment and assess families at the beginning of service, develop individualized family service plans, monitor family progress, and assess outcomes for individual families and programs.
FAF is designed as a standardized form but is adaptable for a variety of clinical, procedural, or program needs. FAF is available from CWLA in two HIPAA-compliant software applications, both on CD-ROM and usable with single-user or networked systems:
FAF Pro
($495) supports a range of case management tasks, including assessment, service planning, case notes, and termination, as well as family and program outcome and administrative reporting.
FAF Express
($295) is a shorter version designed strictly for limited data entry and reporting on family functioning only.
Both the Pro and Express versions come with 50 assessments. Additional assessments, additional site licenses, and upgrading from the Express to the Pro version are available exclusively from Children's Bureau of Southern California (online at
, or call toll-free 888/357-9135).

He Worked on Some of the Most Famous Shows on TV: 'Playhouse 90,' 'Twilight Zone,' 'Gilligan's Island,' 'Bewitched' and 'Charlie's Angels.' And Wait Until You Read His Account About the Emmys. Writer-Producer William Froug Dies at 91 Variety, How I Escaped From 'Gilligan's Island' and Other Misadventures of a Hollywood Writer-Producer
Variety writes that as a television writer/producer, William Froug "was attached to series including 'The Twilight Zone,' 'Gilligan's Island,' 'Charlie's Angels,' 'Playhouse 90' and 'Adventures in Paradise.' His involvement in 'Bewitched' earned him a shared Emmy nomination for outstanding comedy series in 1967."
The story also says that Froug, "the Emmy-winning writer-producer, author and screenwriting professor who restructured UCLA's entire screenwriting program, died of natural causes at the Tidwell House Hospice in Sarasota, Florida, on Aug. 25, 2013. He was 91." Though he died a week ago Sunday, the Hollywood trades only wrote about his death late yesterday afternoon, and today, Sept. 6.
The Variety obituary adds: "In 1958, Froug won an Emmy for best produced television series for 'Eddie,' for which he also received a Producers Guild Award. Among other accolades, he received the Writers Guild of America, West's Valentine Davies Award for industry/community service in 1987 and was named one of the 'Emmy Legends of Television' by the Archive of American Television last year."
Besides being an executive at CBS, at various times Froug taught at both UCLA and USC.
The Variety story also notes: "Froug is survived by four children -- Suzy Allegra, Nancy Earth, Lisa Froug-Hirano and Jonathon Froug --[four grandchildren and two great grandchildren], and was married to Christine Michaels at the time of his death."
Here's a terrific story Froug tells about his Emmy-winning show "Eddie." This is from Froug's 2005 autobiography, "How I Escaped From 'Gilligan's Island' and Other Misadventures of a Hollywood Writer-Producer."
The year was 1958. and Froug was producing shows for the half-hour drama anthology series "Alcoa Goodyear Theatre." He received an unusual script -- a show that consisted of a single monologue. Froug loved the script, titled "Eddie." It was about a gambler who had to raise money to pay off his debts by a certain hour, or he was going to be killed. Immediately, Froug thought of one actor to play the part: Mickey Rooney. (Five years later Froug would also use Rooney as the only actor in a "Twlight Zone" episode called "The Last Night of a Jockey.")
Here is some of what Froug wrote about "Eddie" in his autobiography:
"As it turned out, Rooney could have directed himself. [As the cameras rolled] I could only stare with amazement as this superb actor picked up the prop phone and instantly became Eddie, making his desperate pitch to his customers, his brother, and finally his mother; a lonely, isolated man pleading for his life. With no actor to play against, it was a virtuoso performance. Rooney's face broke out in sweat, his eyes searching the tiny apartment as if seeking divine intervention. Mickey Rooney's performance defined talent. He was even better than I had imagined. ... When we finished shooting after a little more than two days, the entire crew gave Rooney a richly deserved standing ovation."
Froug continues: "When the print was edited we showed the rough cut to a few Screen Gems executives. They came out of the projection room with raves. 'It's an Emmy for Rooney, no doubt about it,' was the consensus. You could feel the excitement around the Screen Gems offices. We had something special."
Finally it was time for the Emmys to be presented. The show itself won. Froug writes, "It turned out to be 'Eddie's' night. Jack Smight won as best director, and Al Brenner won one for adapting Kenneth Hughes' script."
Rooney was up against five other actors in the category "Best Single Performance of the Year." Four of the others -- Rod Steiger, Christopher Plummer, Paul Muni and Robert Crawford Jr. -- were nominated for their performances playing characters in various other drama anthologies. The fifth nominee was Fred Astaire, who was up for playing himself singing and dancing in his TV special "An Evening with Fred Astaire." Astaire won the Emmy.
Froug writes: "Entering the men's room at the Earl Carroll Theater after the ceremonies were over, I discovered Rooney at the sink, staring at his image in the mirror. 'Fuck 'em!' he yelled. 'Fuck 'em all! Who needs the bastards!' He turned away form the sink and staggered drunkenly out the door, barely able to navigate. Who could blame him?"

Bill would require breasts and genitalia on statues be covered
Knoxville state Sen. Stacey Campfield, taking advantage of the day, has a list of "proposed legislation" that includes the headlined item; teaching the bible in state schools, no speed limit in school zones near Hooters, and a bill to limit satellite dishes on houses, and several others.
The irony is that Campfield's spoofs are not far from reality.
Self deprecation is not funny when it reminds your audience of your weaknesses. Remember when Bush made the WMD jokes at the Press Club dinner?

Would this be a good cutting strategy:
Reduce daily intake of cals by 200 each week until I start to notice/measure fat loss, then remain at that level or even add 200 back to make sure I'm not taking out too much. While doing this, I would keep my current 50/20/30 c/f/p ratio.
Also for my next question: Is cardio necessary for cutting? It seems to me that you have 2 choices when cutting: reduce the amount of calories you are consuming, increase the amount you are burning, or a combination of the two. Is that correct? Can I get by without cardio if I reduce my calories by a sufficient amount? The reason I say that is because I am currently eating 5k cals per day, and I always feel stuffed. It wouldn't hurt me to cut down to even 4k per day. Is the main reason people do cardio when cutting is so they can eat slightly more and don't have to feel hungry all day?

If you want to lose weight and cut all you have to do is burn more calories than you takin in during the day. The less you take in the easier it will be to create this deficit and the more weight you will lose, however as you start to lose weight quickly along with that goes muscle. I would recommend when cutting cals to cut carbs, not protein and fat. Keep protein high as this will help to maintain muscle during the cut. Cut fat as you progress during the cut, but not too low.
As for the cardio it will definantly make it easier to cut, especially as the cut goes on. In the beginning you will find it easy to lose without cardio but as you get leaner it will be tougher, so i would recommend doing cardio and increase the amount as you go on.
Theres several different methods out there for cutting. 2 of the most popular on this board seem to be the "UD2" and "PSMF". Lots of people on this site seem to use both, but they are pretty hard core, and it depends on how serious you are.
You won't be losing any muscle doing that, but you might be cutting for 3 years...Originally Posted by SpecialK
I would say yes, but cardio also has other benefits as well, most notably increased nutrient partitioning effects.Originally Posted by SpecialK
First let me add that I don't need to lose a ton of fat. I'd estimate my bf% is in the 12-13% range. I want to get down into the single digit range so I can see my abs again w/o flexingOriginally Posted by Vido
Having said that, why would it take me 3 years using my strategy? I searched through some cutting threads and noticed that people were recommending dropping no more than 200-300 cals/day per week.
That's to ensure ZERO muscle loss. Personally, I'd rather lose a lb or two of muscle if it meant I could cut infinitely quicker.Originally Posted by SpecialK
I used to agree with the people saying that, but have changed my stance. I now believe that if you're not going to do a "hardcore" cut (UD2, PSMF, etc.) you shouldn't even bother. A properly done UD2 should also lead to zero muscle loss, and potentially even slight gains. PSMF won't hold on to the lean mass as well, but nothing strips the fat off more quickly.
Well, if I follow my plan, then after 5 weeks, I will be down to 4k cals. I can't imagine that I would have to drop much lower than that to see any results. I could be wrong, of course. I'll look into the UD2.
You might be right, but to me that 5 weeks is just wasted time. You could probably be DONE your cut by then if you did something more drastic.Originally Posted by SpecialK
If you are at 12-13%, definately give UD2.0 a try. You will probably see a lot more progress with an 8 week cycle of UD2.0, then just merely cutting 200 cals a week (btw, I have tried that approach before, and I still lost some muscle mass)Originally Posted by SpecialK
"It is often said, mainly by the "no-contests", that although there is no positive evidence for the existence of God, nor is there evidence against his existence. So it is best to keep an open mind and be agnostic. At first sight that seems an unassailable position, at least in the weak sense of Pascal's wager. But on second thought it seems a cop-out, because the same could be said of Father Christmas and tooth fairies. There may be fairies at the bottom of the garden. There is no evidence for it, but you can't prove that there aren't any, so shouldn't we be agnostic with respect to fairies?"
Richard Dawkins
"Out of all of the sects in the world, we notice an uncanny coincidence: the overwhelming majority just happen to choose the one that their parents belong to. Not the sect that has the best evidence in its favour, the best miracles, the best moral code, the best cathedral, the best stained glass, the best music: when it comes to choosing from the smorgasbord of available religions, their potential virtues seem to count for nothing, compared to the matter of heredity. This is an unmistakable fact; nobody could seriously deny it. Yet people with full knowledge of the arbitrary nature of this heredity, somehow manage to go on believing in their religion, often with such fanaticism that they are prepared to murder people who follow a different one."
Richard Dawkins
"Bah. You know I hate poor people."

Swine H1N1 vaccine receives conditional license
"USDA and its partners in animal health have worked hard to expedite the development of a vaccine for the 2009 pandemic H1N1 influenza virus," said Cindy Smith, administrator of the USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS). "This vaccine will help producers protect their swine herds and protect themselves from economic losses in the event that their herds contract this virus."
The conditional license will last for one year, at which point the USDA will review data on the vaccine's performance to determine whether the conditional license should be extended or whether a regular license can be granted.

Meet Workington's very own Calendar Girls, stripped and ready for theatrical action.
The six will shed their clothes in Workington Playgoers' adaptation of Calendar Girls at the town's Theatre Royal from Tuesday, December 4, to Sunday, December 9, to raise money for Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research.
Pam Armstrong, Grace Walker, Charlie Douglas-Brown, Sarah Delorme, Nicola Woodier and Fran Smith will take on the roles made famous by Helen Mirren, Julie Walters and others in the film of the same name.

Workington Playgoers will make a donation from proceeds of the production.
Performances begin at 7.30pm Tuesday to Saturday and there will be a matinee on the Sunday at 2.30pm.
Tickets cost £8, and £7 for concessions, from the box office on 01900 602122.
