Hugging shorter people and resting your head on theirs
Hugging taller people and having your head against their chest
Hugging people your height and pressing your face against their shoulder
Hugging people and getting picked up by them
Not having people to hug
Giving a hug that comes off as weird
This post describes me in every way

Very warm atmosphere, great empanadas and steaks. Very inventive ingredients for the empanadas. Owners are fun and provide great service. This is a place if you like gin -- they have lots of high-end brands not found elsewhere and even a collection of different tonics! Real juniper berries and cucumber topped off my husband's very generous Hendricks & tonic to his delight!
Perfect for a laid back evening with good food!

CMS to expand bid process for Medicare medical supplies
U.S. regulators plan to proceed with a program requiring durable medical equipment suppliers led by Lincare Holdings Inc. and Apria Healthcare Group Inc. to bid to sell to Medicare beneficiaries. A nine-city trial saved about $130 million in the first half of the year, led to almost 100 retail stores opening and hasn't harmed patient care, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services said. Expanding to 91 more metropolitan areas by July 2013 and nationwide in 2016 will cut prices for wheelchairs, oxygen tanks and diabetes-testing supplies, saving the U.S. $17 billion in a decade, said Jonathan Blum, the deputy administrator overseeing Medicare, the health program for the elderly and disabled. Suppliers grew to 714 from 622, he said. The effort will lead to business closings and access issues for Medicare beneficiaries, according to Apria of Lakewood Forest, CA, owned by New York-based Blackstone Group LP, and Clearwater, FL-based Lincare, as well as manufacturers led by Elyria, Ohio-based Invacare Corp. The companies are trying to have competitive bidding scrapped.

Ringling Brothers pays fine for animal abuse in circus
Nov 30, 2011
The parent company of Ringling Bros. circus will pay $270,000 to settle a lawsuit that alleged the show had violated the Animal Welfare Act on several occasions between June 2007 and August 2011, CNN reports.
The lawsuit was filed by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and the Animal Protection Institute against Feld Entertainment Inc., the owner of Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Bailey Circuses. The groups alleged that these circuses are a violation of the Endangered Species Act, under which the elephant is protected. They said that the shows systematically abuse and exploit this animal by using metal bullhooks to guide and control the animals and chain their legs while not performing.
"This settlement sends a direct message to the public and to those who exhibit animals that USDA will take all necessary steps to protect animals regulated under the Animal Welfare Act," Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said in a USDA press release, according to CNN.
Feld also agreed to develop annual Animal Welfare Act compliance training for all employees who work with animals starting March 31, 2012, The Huffington Post reports.

Hats off to father and son --- as a non-viewer, the challenges and roadblocks sound fun but tough. I admire the strong and loving relationship these two have. One complaint, though: why was Dave, and not me, blessed with such great hair at our age?

Think they did such a great job, and probably could have won the race without the injury. It's too bad. I wonder if they could get a second chance since they withdrew due to medical reasons beyond their control.

Best Holiday Food Scenes in Movies The Most Delicious — and Disastrous — Holiday Movie Food Scenes by Anna Monette Roberts 11/30/12 21 Reactions 48 Shares Print 0 21 25 2 0 There are certain scenes in holiday movies that make your mouth water with longing and other ones that compel you to push your plate away. From full Christmas breakfasts complete with sausage and muffins to deflated turkeys bone dry from overcooking, take a look at the most delicious — and disastrous — food scenes from our favorite holiday flicks. Start Delicious: Elf What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Who can possibly forget Will Ferrell's absurd sugar consumption in Elf? The most infamous scene has to be at the family dinner when Will Ferrell drinks an entire liter of Coke and then proceeds to pour maple syrup all over his spaghetti dinner. When asked, "You like sugar, huh?" Buddy innocently responds, "Is there sugar in syrup?" According to Buddy, "Elves stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corns, and syrup." Source: New Line Cinema 1 / 7 Disastrous: National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The Griswold family sits down in front of a gorgeous golden turkey. Before carving it, Clark says, "Cathrine, if this turkey tastes half as good as it looks, I think we're all in for a very big treat." As soon as he begins cutting, the turkey makes a grotesque farting noise and instantly deflates, sending Cathrine into a fit of tears. Source: Warner Bros. 2 / 7 Delicious: Little Women What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Despite having saved for months to come up with an enticing full Christmas breakfast complete with sausage, oranges, muffins, and cream, the four March sisters decide to donate their feast to their needy neighbors down the road. It's heartbreaking to see the magnificent spread go without a crumb being consumed, but the reaction on their neighbors' face makes them forget about their sacrifice. Source: Columbia Pictures 3 / 7 Disastrous: The Family Stone What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Despite the beautifully prepared meal, everyone has lost their appetite due to Meredith's awkward confrontations about race, deafness, and sexual orientation. In this breath-holding scene, there isn't possibly enough wine to smooth over the repeated slams. Source: Fox 2000 4 / 7 Delicious: Home Alone 2 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Alone again for the holidays, Kevin decides to make full use of his parents' cash by ordering pizza in a limo, including Coke in a Champagne flute, as well as an all-you-can-eat ice-cream sundae bar. When the server asks, "Two scoops, sir?" Kevin curtly replies, "Two? Make it three! I'm not driving!" Source: 20th Century Fox 6 / 7 Disastrous: A Christmas Story What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 When the turkey becomes dinner for the dogs, Ralphie's family must resort to Chinese duck for their Christmas feast. While the whole family is in a giggling fit over the fact that the entire duck is served, head and all, the Old Man is less amused. He tells the Chinese waiter, "Yes, it's a beautiful duck. Yes, it really is. It's, uh . . . but you see, it's smiling at me." And before he has time to finish explaining himself, the waiter has grabbed a cleaver and swiftly chopped the neck off. Source: MGM 6 / 7 Delicious: How the Grinch Stole Christmas What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In this touching ending, the Whos seat the Grinch at the middle of their Christmas table after he brings back all the presents and "food for the feast." Most importantly, they give him one of the biggest honors, as the narrator explains: "He himself, the Grinch, carved the roast beast."

NAGPUR: National Organisation for Community Welfare in Wardha successfully completed a three year project on kitchen gardening which improved the haemoglobin levels of women in all 26 villages where the project was taken in Wardha district. It was funded by the Rotary Club of Bombay funded the project with Rs 2.45 lakh. .
As many as 838 gardens established in 26 villages in a radius of 12-45km from Wardha city in Wardha district covering mainly Wardha and Seloo talukas. Though the project was funded by Rotary Club of Bombay, the money spent on seeds was just Rs 21,000, but the produce (though not a single kg sold) was valued at Rs 4.35 lakh in retail market and Rs 2.89 lakh in wholesale market.
The 26 villages included Nanbardi, Antargaon, Jamani, Hiwra, Amgaon, Malegaon (Theka), Mhasala, Dinkarnagar, Junona, Bondsula, Kopra, Shirsamudra, Ghorpad, jaipur, Alodi, Nagapur, Surgaon, Tuljapur (Waghala), Talodhi, Karanji-Kaji, Madani, Dindoda, Bhankheda, takli (kite) and Pimpalgaon.
The purpose of the project was to remove anaemia, promoting organic farming, inculcating healthy food habits among villagers, raising confidence and conserving seeds. Besides women, schools and their students were involved in implementing the project in their houses.
The technologies used by women included organic farming technology with use of recycled kitchen water without soap, use of soak pits, small canals around gardens, use of homemade drip system.
In majority villages, haemoglobin was raised from 5-7 to 10-12. Tribal village Malegaon (Theka) even had women with 14 haemoglobin. Jamani, Hiwra showed best results (100%) followed by Kopra (88%) Aamgaon (70%).
The only negative aspect of the project was that haemoglobin levels of some women in Dinkarnagar, Junona and Bondusla- villages could not be raised despite high vegetable intake. Project implementers are seeking opinion of medical experts who are tracing it to certain other causes like gynaecological problems.

While Google's Nexus One is a good phone, we normally wouldn't be too bothered about someone purchasing one, since lots of people already do that. But when the person who makes the purchase is Linus Torvalds, father of Linux, which Google's Android is based on, it's certainly worth taking note. Aside from his celebrity status, there's also the fact that he isn't too fond of cell phones, already owning a G1, but using it mainly for playing games on long flights. Now it seems that with the inclusion of multi-touch to the Nexus One has finally made the phone cool enough for Linus to pick up. His reasoning is that he needed a GPS unit for his car, so the Google navigation would probably make it useful (and it did). We're certainly excited about the Nexus One, and are certainly looking forward to see what other cool devices Google (and HTC) will be coming up with next.

This is a photo I found of Jennifer Love-Hewitt on the internet of her engagement ring. It is the only ring I found on-line as I surfed through engagenent rings... (and trust me, there are PLENTY!) that looks even remotely similar to the ring I fell in LOVE with today (and it's NOT even that similar at all, now that I really look at it! lol) and want Collin to propose to me with! I literally GASPED when I saw it in the display case! I think it was meant to be! I have not been all that enthusiastic during this whole "ring shopping" process (as I'm sure you caught that vibe)... until NOW! Now, I am literally on cloud 9! It's ACTUALLY HAPPENING!!! Ok, ok... nothing has happened yet! I still have to wait for the exciting day when Collin chooses to get down on one knee and ask me to be his wife... but until that time, I can breathe easy knowing the ring in that box is going to be ABSOLUTELY perfect! (And was well within our budget! YAY!) OK... I think I need to take a deep breath now! Ahhhhhh Haaaaaaa!
So, I even tried to leave work early, and I STILL couldn't get out of downtown! (I went to my bus stop where I proceeded to wait for AN HOUR for a bus to pick me up! Not a chance... Every single bus was filled to the NUTS with people and traffic is barely moving! I'm choked!) I bet I don't get home tonight till 8:00pm! (It's 6:15pm right now and I'm STILL at the office! WTF? It's FRIDAY for goodness sake!) I'm so mad, unimpressed and HUNGRY so I went to subway and got a 6" Turkey Breast sub (doublt meat, of course) I've finished it and now I've started nibbling on the chocolates I was given as a Christmas gift. BAD! (Ok, Ok... I've only had 3 so far so if I stop now, I won't feel that guilty! One chocolate is 50 calories however. NOT COOL!) All of you that said you wish you got snow like we do... are you still wishing you were as "lucky" as I am now??? LOL Boo, this sucks!
www.theweathernetwork.com/index.php?product=alerts&placecode=caab0049�ion=wwcaab0006 Yes, it's true Yall... we here in Canada live in igloos! LOL Well, on a day like today it's SURE gonna feel like it! Today and tonight we are supposed to get about 25-30cm of fresh snow!!! And it's not just gonna fall nice and calm-like... No, it's gonna be blowing and fiercly cold (-16oC, with windchill, -30oC!!!) And why do I live in Canada again? LOL Man, I hate this weather!!! Luckily I bought new winter boots just in time, so my feet have been saved from the COLD weather we've had thus far! (It's been snowy and COLD all this week!!!) Collin and I might go out and brave the weather on Saturday to go out ring shopping again. I am getting impatient! I can't believe we've gone ring shopping so many times and I'm still undecided on what I should get! (The friend I went for the dinner date with on Wednesday told me Collin should be spending 3 months salary or "at least $7000-10,000 dollars on it!" I told her she was OUT OF HER MIND! Not in this market, not EVER would I let my man spend that kind of money on a stupid ring! (... a new wardrobe for me, sure... but NOT a ring!) I barely wear rings as it is! Anyways, I just want to get this done! I want to be Collin's FIANCEE!!! I want him to propose to me! (I have thought MANY times about proposing to him... but I have NEVER been asked to marry someone, and I think I'm a little traditional that way. I know I could and would do it, but I really feel in my heart that it's important for me to hear him ask ME those words! I know I want to marry him, but does he REALLY want to marry me??? Here's to winter weather! Bundle up if you live in the cold! If you don't, I'm super jealous! lol
I had not one but 2 Christmas gatherings yesterday, one at lunch and one for dinner... needless to say I had to bail on my training session. (Oh well, it was cheat day, no worries!) And I have finally managed to find something that will control my GI when I eat Thai foods: ACIDOPHILUS! www.wisegeek.com/what-is-acidophilus.htm This stuff was suggested to me by a colleague when I complained about getting sick from eating only certain foods namely THAI! (now that I'm eating much cleaner, my body seems much more sensitive!) Anyways, I took 2 acidophilus capsules before I left for both gatherings and I felt NO ill effect from either of them (well, apart from the usual "I'm stuffed!" feeling) What a great day and GREAT discovery! I will make sure to keep these capsules handy for any other unforseen eating event! LOL Also, I got multiple compliments on my weight loss and how my whole attitude has changed! I was completely flattered! I even had one friend (who has just had 2 babies and gained a fair bit of new weight in the process) reach out to me for help! I do want to see her much happier then she is now, so I offered to sit down with her to talk about her current situation. I think she will really benefit from it! (and it will give us time to catch up! We haven't seen each other in ages!) I can't wait to get to the gym today! I really just want to run for 30 minutes, I kinda feel that all that ICK is still floating around in my system!
I have gone to 3 of my SparkFriends blogs today who have mentioned that I have motivated them or given them some form of advice that they are applying to their workouts or diet! They are: Andrea - ANDREAPIERSON Wendee - WENDEESMITH Mary - MEB0180 You guys rock!!! Thank you so much for making my DAY!!! I am so touched that you ladies feel strongly enough about my opinion that my advice and recommedations are making a difference in your workouts, nutrition and overall health and wellness!!!! Be strong, Ladies!!! I am just feeling the love all over this week: from friends, the scale, my trainer... LIFE IS GOOD! Gotta love weeks like this!
