Testing for the martingale hypothesis in Asian stock prices: evidence from a new joint variance ratio test
AbstractThis paper tests for the martingale (or random walk) hypothesis in the stock prices of a group of Asian countries. The selected countries represent well-developed markets (Hong Kong and Japan) as well as emerging markets (Korea, Taiwan and Thailand). This paper adopts a new joint variance ratio test which is a finite sample test based on the wild bootstrap method. It is different from the conventional variance ratio tests in that its sampling distribution is approximated by a resampling method, which has been found to exhibit better small sample properties than the asymptotic method. The test for the martingale hypothesis is conducted with moving-subsample windows, to control the sensitivity of the results to the particular sample periods. Overall, it is found that the stock prices of Japan, Korea, and Hong Kong are found to follow the martingale, indicating that their stock markets have been efficient.

Film Review: 'The Well-Digger's Daughter'
Date: August 15, 2012
by: Pam Nadon | Film Critic
The new film, "The Well-Digger's Daughter," is a breath of fresh air. Not a single super hero, explosion, CGI or murder inhabit this lovely piece of French filmmaking. The gifted actor Daniel Auteuil, in his first excursion as a director and writer, has woven an engaging tapestry of storytelling framed by the breathtaking charm of Provence, France.
Auteuil stars as Pascale, the widowed well-digger and father to six daughters, in pre-World War I France. Pascale's eldest beloved daughter, Patricia (the gorgeous Astrid Bergès-Frisbey), is seduced by Jacques Mazel (a bland Nicholas Duvauchelle), a pilot whose parents are the wealthiest family in the region. She gets pregnant, he's called to duty and then goes missing in action.
Blindsided and wounded, Pascale confronts Jacques' parents with Patricia's dilemma. Not wanting to contaminate their gene pool, they erroneously and rudely dismiss Patricia as a gold digger. To avoid shame, Pascale ships his daughter off to live with an aunt who's also a fallen woman.
When Pascale is persuaded by his assistant (a wonderful Kad Merad) to visit Patricia and his new grandson, he has a change of heart. He invites her back home where the Mazels are also experiencing a shift in feelings when they find out Jacques is reported dead.
Stunning, sun-drenched cinematography, a soaring score and Auteuil's standout performance are just three of many reasons to catch "The Well-Digger's Daughter." The audience is transported back to a simpler time when morality played a huge role in people's lives. Owning a motorbike or an automobile was a big deal. Old-fashioned suddenly seems so capriciously captivating when watching this beautiful film.
"The Well-Digger's Daughter" is a tale about ordinary people who become extraordinary when they do the right thing. As Auteuil observes: "It's a magnificent story of love, tenderness, sorrow and forgiveness." Let's face it; there aren't many of those in movie theaters these days.

(Adds details, background, analysts' estimates, shares)
Feb 25 (Reuters) - Office supply retailer Office Depot Inc reported a surprise quarterly loss as same-store retail sales fell 4 percent in North America, sending its shares reeling.
Office Depot shares fell about 15 percent in premarket trading on Tuesday, while those of rival Staples Inc dropped 2.5 percent.
Office Depot, which acquired OfficeMax in November, said its fourth-quarter net loss widened to $144 million, or 34 cents per share, in the quarter ended Dec. 28 from $17 million, or 6 cents per share, a year earlier.
The results include acquisition-related charges of more than $100 million.
On an adjusted basis, Office Depot reported a loss of 3 cents per share. Analysts on average had expected a profit of 3 cents per share, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
Sales rose 33 percent to $3.49 billion but fell short of the average analyst estimate of $4.03 billion. Sales included $939 million from OfficeMax.
About 40 percent of the company's sales came from its North American retail business. North America business solutions division contributed about 34 percent of revenue.
Office Depot also has an international division.
Decreased store traffic resulted in fewer transactions in the North America retail business, the company said. The average order value also fell.
Office supply retailers have been struggling as more shoppers buy their paper and gadgets from e-retailers such as Amazon.com Inc as well as drugstores or mass merchants.
Office Depot forecast 2014 sales to be lower than pro-forma combined sales in 2013 and said it expected to generate adjusted operating income of at least $140 million.
The company, which appointed turnaround expert Roland Smith as chief executive in November, said it expects $400 million of integration expenses between 2014 and 2016. About $300 million would be incurred in 2014.
Office Depot's $976 million acquisition of OfficeMax, announced last February, was aimed at cutting costs, consolidating stores and improving chances of fighting off market leader Staples and online and discount rivals.
Office Depot shares rose 27 percent in the year to Monday's close of $5.35 on the New York Stock Exchange. Staples shares rose less than 1 percent in the same period.

Podcast: Play in new window | Download
Welcome to the debut episode of {S&M} Soulful & Meaningful Conversations.
Every month I will be sharing an audio or video interview with some of the most incredible people I know as we delve deep into everything soulful and meaningful. These episodes are not short and sweet. They are deep & profound and are anywhere from 30mins to 60mins. So you'll want to get comfortable…settle in…make yourself a cuppa or pour yourself a glass of wine…and minimise ALL distractions. And be sure you have a notepad and pen so you can take copious notes.
This month's episode is all about love, sex and attraction. And delving into these topics with me is Belinda Davidson, medical intuitive and creator of School of the Modern Mystic. Belinda is definitely no stranger around here, however we've never delved into the sex arena like this.
If you have you ever asked yourself any of the following questions…
- Am I attracted to someone because of egoic reasons or soulful reasons?
- Am I using sex to get what I want?
- Am I really coming from a place of love or am I just addicted to the sex?
- How do I attract relationships that are good for me vs being toxic for me?
- What is sexual attraction anyway?
- How do I grow up sexually?
- Do I even need sex and orgasms?
- What does it take to move this sexual energy up to my heart (aka sync my genitals with my heart)?
- Is my heart guarded and closed down? Or is it just discerning?
…you are going to love this months episode!
Click play to listen in as Belinda and I delve deep into all of these questions and so much more…
Did you enjoy the first episode of S&M? What was your takeaway gem? Be sure to let me know in the comments below or via twitter or Facebook.

A feeling started coming over me when the Padres first reached 20 games over .500, and there was the item that this was the first time the Padres had been so far over .500 since the end of the 1998 season. I looked up the details I'd forgotten. The 1998 Padres finished the regular season at 98-64, far more than 20 games over .500, easily the best season record in the history of the franchise. Oh, I get it. This item wasn't saying anything about the 1998 team as much as how none of the teams between 1998 and 2010 accomplished what the 2010 Padres already have done. Yet not all of those teams were ridiculed as no-talent poseurs. Oh, excuse me, replacement-talent poseurs.
Have you given yourself a moment just to stare at the NL West standings today? Isn't that 70 next to the Padres' name beautiful? None of the other teams have numbers so pretty.
I don't remember anyone questioning the right of the 2006 team to win the division. The 2006 team did just that with a final record of 88-74. Do you know that with 45 games to play, the 2010 Padres can match the 2006 team if they go merely 18-27 the rest of the way?
A more interesting possibility is the 1998 record. The 2010 Padres can match the best record in the history of the franchise if they finish this year 28-17. How about that?
At this point I can think of a lot of possibilities for the rest of this year and the playoffs I'd enjoy. If it doesn't turn out as well as that, it will be understandable. The haters are now feeling smug about the Padres getting blown out of the playoffs. Somehow that's the only possibility they see. Well, that can happen, but there's a good shot the haters are wrong again. That's enough for me to feel excited.
In the meantime, isn't that 70 beautiful? Even though it's less than the 75 the Padres finished with last year, which gave so many of us hope that the Padres could be a .500 team again or maybe even somewhat better, this 70 is with 45 games remaining in which to add on to that. Oh, my. It's like a star is being born.

Since the spring there has been an inordinate amount of petroleum sheens, oil spills if you will, seen on Newtown Creek – specifically the NW section of the creek running from the Pulaski Bridge to Whale Creek and up into Dutch Kills. A number of reports have been filed with the NY State Dept. of Enviornmental Conservation (DEC) who has been working tirelessly to locate the source for these occurrences. It is not clear wether all sightings are related or what the potential source is. AS DEC inspector Randy Austin put it: "We're trying to figure out whether or not these are the "routine" sheens we encounter from ebullition and vessel disturbance of the sediments, or if we have a point source responsible for these rainbow sheen events, which have been occurring since early Spring in Newtown Creek."
We strongly urge people to report similar sightings of large rainbow slicks on the creek to the DEC Spill Hotline (1800-457-7362) as well as take a photograph if possible. NCA looks forward to assisting Randy and his amazingly dedicated team at DEC to identify sources and prevent future events from occurring. Much thanks to our partners at Riverkeeper, North Brooklyn Boat Club and LaGuardia Community College for reporting these spills and providing the photos below.

See and share Beautiful Nature Photos and amazing photos of interesting places
Dear Lil sister. .
Hey pretty girl how you doing these days. How's life treating ya, hope it
hasn't been to cray. I noticed you were down, well how bout u talk to me. I
just wanna uplift ya, see you become who you were born to be. I know your
life has been crazy, Lord knows it to. But all those trials and tribulations
they won't break you. I know you hate that man from your past for touching
you the wrong way, you never told no one n it bothers you to dis day. It
created a dark cloud that covered your heart, now you have trust issues
can't tell the enemies apart. Night after night you pray to God for a fresh
start. Low self esteem, but baby your a work of art. Yeah i know you was
sad growing up without a father. As the years go by life seems to get harder.
I know you wanted that affection, the love you deserve as a daughter. Moma
tried her best but some things sh couldn't have taught ya. I know you wish he
told you, how beautiful you are over n over again. How all of your power
cums from deep within. Those weren't the cards you were dealt so you seek
refuge in other men. Trying to fill that void that has always been missing.
Now your in a situation and too scared to leave cause you think to yourself
nobody will ever love me for me. Countiuosly talking to yourself, and crying
secretly. But baby girl that's a lie I say differently. Your a daughter of a king,
so that makes you a princess. Your father hates to see you cry, that's why he
wants to give you his best. You are heirs of royalty don't u ever forget it. You
ARE victorious let me hear you admit it. Please baby girl don't be another
statistic this world wants to see down, so handle your business. Never follow
the crowd honey be independent. Cause when those checks come in, they'll
have a lot of digits. Always remember to remind yourself how beautiful you
are.I don't care if your tall, short, white, black or covered in scars. Being
beautiful starts from the heart, so love yourself first. And always know that
the best comes after the worst. Hang in there hun, I know life's a twister. But
you can always count on me. Sincerely your big sister.

Using Google Music
by Volker Weber
Photo: vowe
I am currently using Google Music (beta) with the Nexus S. There is a client that uploads your iTunes tracks into the cloud and you can stream them on a desktop computer or an Android phone. It's completely transparent. You can have tracks stored on your phone, you can stream the rest over the network and you can restrict this streaming to Wi-Fi only. On top of that the client lets you make tracks from the cloud available right on the phone. It will download them in the background, in my case over Wi-Fi only.
Very cool. You never have to wire the phone to a desktop.
Want to join in? We are organizing an exchange of invites over on Google+.
I tried Google Music, but I still don't see the advantages over using the already available Subsonic (http://subsonic.org). Maybe it's because I only uploaded 20 GB of my 70 GB of music up to now and therefore can't use my existing playlists. In addition I'm not sure what Google will charge me for 70+ GB of space to store my music.
Subsonic uses the local disk storage, so my PC has to be running if I want to access my music remotely. But since it's running 24/7 this isn't a problem for me. Also my 2 MBit/s upstream is fast enough to upload the music to my Nexus S even when I'm on WiFi (Subsonic doesn't stream the music, the app preloads the next songs while it is playing. They are cached (size configurable) and therefore offline available while they are in cache).
I can also decide if I want to use my mobile connection and configure the bitrate of the songs (to reduce the size of the transferred files). Playlists can be created locally on the PC (m3u format) or from the app, which stores them on the local PC, too. Scrobbeling to last.fm is supported locally and from the app. Apps are available for Windows, MacOS, Android, iOS and Windows Phone. The server application is written in Java and available for Windows, MacOS and Linux. I can configure an unlimited number of users, a browser is sufficient to connect to my music collection and listen to it, ...
In addition it supports downloading and listening to Podcasts and Video streaming, but I haven't tried this yet.
Only disadvantages I see compared to Google Music: I'm responsible for the backup of my music. And using the mobile app requires a donation (minimum 10 EUR, no upper limit ). But the developer gives you 30 days to test the app before it will stop working. Using Subsonic with a browser is completely free.
A friend of mine which got my last invite complained he can't install the android app because it's US only. Any help on this?
Regarding the Android App: They don't show it in the Market if you are not in the US. So the only way of doing it is to install "Market Enabler" (http://t.co/bjJ2IpF) on a rooted Android phone, switch to appear as being on an American network (I tried T-Mobile US, worked well) and then look again for the Music-app in your phone's market. This is only possible from your Android device, it does not work from the market.android.com site.
@Frank Spandl: That's not correct. You can also directly install the .apk file (if you trust the file). Links can be found through Google Search. The disadvantage is that you will get no updates automatically. But you don't have to root your phone.

Justin Bieber Gets Cute For "Never Say Never" Music Video (VIDEO)
Ready for your daily dose of cute?
Teen sensation Justin Bieber recently released his new music video for "Never Say Never," featuring the rapping debut of teeny tiny cutie pie Jaden Smith. Is the world prepared to handle the cuteness of these two adorable forces coming together in one video? We guess we'll have to wait and see.
If the 11-year-old Jaden looks familiar that's because he is the son of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith and he also just so happens to be starring in the upcoming Karate Kid, which features "Never Say Never."
But don't make assumptions with the suspiciously nepotistic circumstances surrounding Jaden's appearance on Beiber's song: the kid is actually really good! Maybe former-rapper daddy Will gave him some pointers.
Either way, we definitely think that Beiber should be watching his back for Jaden's rising star. With that cute face and that undeniable talent, it is only a matter of time before he starts swaying the hearts of tween girls everywhere.
Watch the video below.
Don't forget to check out all our Beibs-related coverage over at The Holy Beible.

Major League Baseball Advanced Media will team up with Gannett on digital content products.
Gannett expects its marketing services division, which offers several digital capabilities, to reach $75 million to $100 million in revenue this year. During its investor relations conference today, the company also announced a digital content partnership with Major League Baseball Advanced Media.
The company said it expects its marketing solutions arm to be a "multi-hundred million dollar business" by 2015. In recent years, the firm has enhanced its digital marketing services through acquisitions including social media services company Ripple6, digital circular company ShopLocal, and rich media ad company PointRoll. The idea is to offer local advertisers a one-stop shop for digital ad production, search and social media marketing, and other digital marketing services.
Gannett said it expects its digital marketing services business to bring in "between $275 million and $350 million in annual revenue by 2015," according to a a press release
Gannett ran an integrated campaign for Fareway Food Stores to reach younger customers, creating a contest featured on a microsite and the grocery chain's Facebook page. The idea was to encourage mothers to share healthy recipes for their kids. The campaign also had a presence on broadcast, print, and YouTube and Twitter.
In addition to branching out its digital marketing services, the company has expanded its reach through content partnerships and acquisitions. Today Gannett discussed a new relationship with MLB Advanced Media in which its USA Today Sports Media Group will produce digital content for mobile devices, tablets, and the web, and MLB will handle product development. Video and text content will be curated from existing USA Today sports content or created specifically for the partnership, said Tom Beusse, president of the Sports Media Group, during a phone call today with ClickZ News.
Beusse said the partners will put out content related to a variety of sports rather than just baseball, and both companies will sell sponsorships. For instance, Gannett's 23 broadcast markets produce lots of local sports video that could feed into the partner products. Gannett will also have access to MLB video. The two firms intend to develop and launch products in the next three or four months, he added.
Both firms will "co-brand and co-market" the content, said Beusse during the conference. "The popularity of major league baseball across the country and the amount of time it takes across the calendar year - it's important for us to be in that space," he continued.
In January, Gannett acquired independent sports content firm Fantasy Sports Ventures and Big Lead Sports. Big Lead Sports, a sports news, rumors, and commentary site, came in sixth in comScore's list of sports sites in December 2011, as measured by unique visitors. Compared to the 53 million unique visitors to top site, Yahoo Sports, Big Lead drew more than 19 million, and USA Today Sports Media Group attracted more than 15 million.
Gannett also recently purchased MMAjunkie.com, a mixed martial arts site, in the hopes of building content offerings appealing to younger men.
Gannett also said it plans to relaunch its desktop, mobile and tablet products in the next year to two years, starting with its flagship USA Today product.

On Saturday I bit the bullet and signed up at our local gym. After weighing all the pros and cons, I decided that while there will still be several obstacles, paying for membership at the gym closest to my house is probably my best bet. I also signed up my 13-year-old sign to go with me. Now that he's about to enter 8th grade, I don't see why he can't be more active in the gym - he's been going with me off and on for years, really. He said that he really wants to work on building some muscles and "getting rid of this gut"... (he doesn't have a gut...I think he's heard his Dad say that or something *lol*). I'm sure the newly discovered interest in girls has helped spur this on as well.
Later that day we ended up at the mall where he and I dodged into the local sports store and bought him a workout outfit (basketball shorts and a performance shirt) and a gym bag. (He ended up with one of those drawstring backpacks for now, because every single duffel at this stupid store was at least 8-10 feet off the ground. And there was NO ONE around to help get anything down. WTF?!)
The plan, starting tonight, is to drive straight home, change, drop off Hubs and pick up Logan and then off to the gym for a bit, then home where I'll cook dinner while he works on his homework next to me (I need to clear off our kitchen table so I can have him RIGHT THERE WITH ME.
As far as my foot - well, I can tell you that my boss gave me different advice for healing my PF. Everyone so far (and every website) tells me to stretch it out. My boss said when he suffered from PF he went to a podiatrist who said that's just the opposite of what you want to do. She told him that your foot is already stressed, hence the pain and irritation, and then you stretch and cause more stress...it's counterintuitive. He said that he noticed that the Mayo Clinic's website said that stretching helps something like 80% of sufferers. So for the past 3-4 days do you know what I've done for my foot? Not a damn thing. I'm not stretching it anymore. Hey...stretching it wasn't working...hasn't worked for 18 months, so will trying something like this hurt anything? Probably not. So far my foot feels a lot better. Go figure.
As far as my workouts. Logan and I will be following the LiveFit program. It's a 12-week program from Jamie Eason on the Bodybuilding.com website. I've done it before (well, most of it) and felt amazing when I was doing it. The reason I'm drawn to it is because it calls for no cardio for the first 4 weeks of the program - JUST lifting. I'm even considering drawing those first 4 weeks out to 8 weeks. After that I'll either try the bike or the elliptical to test out my foot.
Side note: I would LOVE to schedule some Tuesday or Thursdays working from home so I can try out the new Tai Chi class at the gym.
I'm not changing much about my eating yet. One stressor at a time here. I'm going to get my butt back in the gym and for the next 2 weeks just focus on slowly reforming my upper and lower body strength. The only thing I am going to focus on is making healthier options wherever I can, cooking at home as much as possible, and falling back on my healthier snacking alternatives - fruit, vegetables, rice cakes, and protein bars. Today's lunch - homemade chili, rice cakes and an orange.
All I'm honestly hoping for right now is to break out of this rut. I'm slightly encouraged by the improvements in my foot...could NOT stretching be the key for me? Seems wrong, but who knows - right?
I haven't done anything.
I'm a big, fat liar.
Seriously, none of my clothes fit anymore.
I've never been one of those "I can't get motivated" people, but for some reason I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place.
I honestly, 100% feel trapped in this body and in my own life.
I'm bitter and angry and I cry pretty much every day.
What happens to the girl who gets everything she ever wanted from life? She ends of miserable because she made so many sacrifices to get there.
I have a great job. I work with great people.
And I wake up every day still hating my life because I know I have to be seen.
I hate how I look. But, more than that, I hate how I feel. Fat. Bloated. Gross.
I can't move because of my knees and my foot and my back all hurt.
So I've been asking myself why I haven't started myself back down the path I know will help.
Not work. Help.
First of all, I'm still angry and bitter.
I did everything I was supposed to do and I failed. And I cannot even begin to tell you how pissed off I still am. Do you know how hard it is to go workout and make yourself hurt SO much (even more now thanks to the foot/ankle) AND deprive yourself of what everyone around you is eating just so you can be LESS FAT. No, seriously. Imagine for a minute that someone told you, "I don't care what you do...starve yourself for the next five years...go ahead and try...you will NEVER lose this weight. You will NEVER be thin." Now go get the motivation to go do the right thing.
I know I'm not SUPPOSED to think that way. But anyone who says that can screw off. Because they didn't get to live through 2012 as me.
Nealy everyone I've started this journey with is done already.
So I've tried another route. Just ignoring that. Chancing that THIS time will be different (though I know it won't). If I just work hard enough this time, but take it REALLY slow (like not seeing a goal weight until I'm 60 years old and too damn old to live the life I've imagined) maybe it will work.
So I tell myself to go to the gym. Because I know that's how it works for me. I can't do food first and exercise later like most of you. Exercise is the answer to me. When I work out I feel better, when I feel better I want to workout, and when I'm feeling great I don't want to eat crap foods because I have more of a training my body mentality.
Problem is...I can't go to the gym. I am LITERALLY trapped.
My husband now goes to work with me every day. We carpool into the city because his car is crap and it literally creaks and makes noises like it's going to fall apart under you when you drive it. He drives MAYBE once a week...the rest of the time we're together. And he only works 1/2 a day...which means he drops me off, waits 2 hours, works 4, waits another 2 and then we go home. I can't ask him to wait any longer. I already feel pressured to leave work early even though that's not really my style. Oh, and did I mention that we have to rush home on Wednesdays because Logan has to be picked up from after school band practice?
All of this would be different if:
Hubs had a different job. He had a second interview last week and we have to wait 2-3 weeks to hear anything.
We lived in town. But we can't even start looking at houses because Hubs has no clue on the job and because I still have not yet gotten a paycheck from the new job.
It's all a game of hurry up and wait. And while I'm waiting I've gained 40 pounds in 3 weeks. And, no, I am not exaggerating.
*pulls hair out*
I do NOT like being this angry, nasty, bitter person. Trying to figure out how to fix this but there's nothing I can do but WAIT...I've never been all that great at WAITING. I've been WAITING for my foot to heal for over a year now. Fat lot of good that did. I don't do waiting. I do action. I do movement. I am a shark.
So how do I stop being who I am for the next 4 weeks to 4 months so:
- We can find out about the job
- We can move into a new house
- I can workout without the gym
- I can eat right without working out
No, seriously...I need some friggin' help here. HATE this. HATE IT.
I have decided I cannot wait until March 1st, so I'm going to start now. Well, Monday. But only because I'm going out of town this weekend and it would be beyond stupid to pile on something else with what I already have planned (and the driving...the driving is going to kill me. I used to LOVE driving...I've driven so many places in my life...but now it's just pain the whole way. I can manage with the cruise control pretty well, but it still hurts to be in that position for very long).

How is the foot?
Can we start walking? If so, put a walking plan into place.
Start slow and work your way up.
You can probably move on to more advanced Yoga for sure. Add in some advanced moves and try to perfect them each morning with your routine.
Add in afternoon or evening walks if your foot feels up to it. If not, add in some lifting or ST routine to your evening, even if it's squats by the stove as you cook.
On March 18, begin your Paleo/Whole30 Diet.
See if what you're eating throughout the day fits into suggested calorie counts. If not, adjust.
Don't let yourself eat out more than 2 times a week, and even then try to stay Paleo. You can have bread now and again on a lunch out, but not every day.
Dinners out for the rest of the March - at least one. A date night with Hubs on either March 22 or March 29. Go out. Enjoy. Don't stress over your diet. Give yourself the night off and just enjoy life.
Look, I've come to realize that I can't do this like the rest of you. I can't just set strict rules and diet because there is NO END IN SIGHT and I'm about to lose my ever-loving mind. What happens is my body stalls out and no matter how hard I push it won't budge, so I go off the rails and do what I've done in the past - I have no rules and eat whatever I want and go back to my binge and emotional eating disorder habits. Because that's what's safe. I know what to expect. I could eat on plan every day for 3 months and gain 10 pounds instead of losing. I never know what my body is going to do when I'm pushing it. But when I let it go, it does what it does best - gain, then maintain.
So how do I break this mentality and keep my sanity? Especially right now when everything is crazy and stressful? I have to let myself have my moments. If I stick to a "plan" about 80% of the time, it shouldn't hurt too awful bad when the other 20% rears its ugly head. I have to be able to visit my friends and celebrate holidays and go have a date with my husband at least once or twice a month. I have to formulate and build and expand upon those relationships, because they've had to live through me being so frustrated with my inability to lose weight and have had angry mom for way too long. If my child and I are out and he wants Frozen Yogurt because we never have it, I want him to not be afraid to ask. I also want the willpower to not let his eating habits affect my own. Just because he has yogurt doesn't mean I have to have some if I don't really want it. But it also means I CAN have some if I do.
I have no clue if this method will work. I'm used to 2-3 years of hard work followed by a year or so of just eating whatever I want, gaining back 30-50 pounds and then coming back for another couple years of hard fighting.
I have no illusions that I will ever be skinny. I gave up on that dream. And you can tell me to think positively, but wishing for something that can never happen just hurts me. I will never, and I do mean NEVER, match the vision in my head of how I see myself. But I can enjoy my life and not hate myself or my body if I just learn to accept who I am and what I really have to work with. Hopefully I can firm up. Maybe one day I'll be able to get some of this crap removed from me (which, honestly, might be the only way I'll rid myself of it). I'm not one of the lucky ones, but I can't be bitter and hate those of you who are. You decided to lose weight and didn't have a bump in the road the whole way and now you're happy and healthy and doing commercials? Good for you. My path is different.
I've had too many people along the way tell me I think the wrong way or I'm doing the wrong thing. I've had people here tell me I'm pushing too hard while others tell me to push harder. Which is it? What I've come to realize is that I'm tired living in everyone else's world and mind. I have to accept who I am - even if that's a little bit sarcastic and a whole lot of sass and not the most optimistic. Whatever. It's gotten me this far, right? I look around at what I've done with my life with who I am and not who everyone wanted me to be and the only thing I'm sad about is that I didn't accept myself sooner. My whole life I had everyone telling me I should hide things about myself, be a different person, act differently, think differently, BE different completely. I tried. I honestly 100% tried. I can't. And I'm tired of trying.
I'm the girl who IS sarcastic and probably too pessimistic.
I'm the girl everyone gets to say "I told you so!" when something good happens that I didn't expect, because I've fought so long for something that never happened and never happened and then BOOM! there it is.
I have sass and flare. I make a TON of mistakes. I curse when my children are around.
I don't attend church regularly because I believe that a lot of it is a farce and some of the meanest people I've met have done horrible things to me and the people I love and then claimed they were "good, Christian people". I will make my own ideas about religion and God and they will probably center more around treating other people with respect and dignity and basic human kindness.
I will be a staunch supporter of equal rights (SO glad I don't have to hide that one anymore) for EVERYONE. Because people are people and no stupid relgion in the world can make any rational argument as to why some people are better than others because of whatever characteristic about them is different.
What's more, I will argue with you if I feel you ARE being stupid about these topics. I'm not going to turn a blind eye anymore. (Like I said, thankfully my job change means I CAN be more open and honest about this.) I'm not doing it to hurt your feelings, but if you want to isolate an entire group of people or bring some sort of hate upon them - I have a responsiblity to say SOMETHING...even though I know you won't listen.
I'm going to allow myself to be bold while still trying to be kind. There is a fine line between "If you don't have anything nice to say..." and "The only way for evil to succeed is for good people to do nothing..." (and I'm not looking up either of those to make sure they're right).
I'm going to dare to be wrong.
I'm going to dare to have fun and look stupid doing it.
I'm going to beg for forgiveness and not ask for permission.
Why? Because it's MY DAMN LIFE.
I have to live it...not you.
And I'm not happy being someone that makes you happy to be around.
I will take other people's feelings into account, but I will not allow myself to be degraded and put down and smashed into the ground and made to feel insignificant just so YOU can feel okay/good about yourself. I have to stop sacrificing myself ALL THE DAMN TIME.
And as far as health and diet is concerned...I am going to stop apologizing for being human.
I'm going to stop feeling like I failed ALL OF YOU because I have this major injury. I'm going to allow myself the safe and easy recovery time I need. Even if that means I can't ever run again. I wanted to prove you all wrong...all you who thought I couldn't or shouldn't run. And, honestly, I did. I spent a whole month running a 5k EVERY SINGLE WEEKEND. I ran 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 miles straight. Did I get hurt? Yes. But not one doctor attributes my injury to my running, and neither do I. I attribute it to horrible bone structure, lack of stretching (that's my impatience coming out...), and inability to purchase appropriate equipment. I also attribute some of it to the people who wouldn't listen when I told them I needed help. It took a lot for me to stand in front of that guy and tell him I was a runner and needed new shoes. Instead of fitting me like they do everyone else, he got me in and out as fast as possible and I have no doubt he didn't believe me for a second. To him, I was a joke. And, yes, I lay some fault with him.
So there it is. My plan..and a rant. Because I needed to get it out of me. I'm ready to move on with my life, and part of that is accepting that I'm not one of those quick in-and-out dieters. I'm going to be at this my ENTIRE life and will probably never reach my goal without some sort of surgical intervention. Take it or leave it.
Oh, and one last thing. I'm the girl who changes her plans...so be prepared to see this one get morphed into something else. I'm still not sure if Paleo is really what I want for myself. I think I like clean eating better. I think if I can adapt Paleo and Jamie Eason's eating plan in the LiveFit program together I might be able to live with that and do it forever. Part whole eating, part Paleo, part vegetarian. I've never EVER been all of one thing in my life, why did I think I would be this time? I want to see cheese and bread and sweets in my future - so I have to learn to adapt those or accept those in moderation or something. We shall see what comes of it. I'll label it the Esther Diet and sell billions of book and have people eating out of my hands in no time!! ;)
My foot isn't healed.
I don't think it ever will be.
My weight likes to fluctuate the same 30 pounds.
It's better than gaining 100.
So what do I do now?
Best thing I can think to do is start over. Again.
I wish I could stop feeling like a failure, but it's better than giving up completely.
Will be weighing in on Monday (going away this weekend).
Will begin measuring everything once again.
The first 2 weeks are just logging what I'm doing. Then reassess and start cutting back.
And start adding in some exercise, even if it's just yoga for now.
I miss ST.
I miss feeling strong.
I already have plans to join the gym again once my paychecks kick in so I can get my muscles back.
It's the least I can do.
I don't like being squishy.
...I have wanted to exercise...but I'm scared.
A lot has been happening in my world lately. First of all, I'm on day 22 of Whole30. Eight more days and I'm a free woman!! *lol* J/K. The discipline has been great and I'm loving whole foods a lot more. Plus, my energy and such is through the roof. Not today, though. Only working on about 5 hours a sleep today...and Mama needs more than 5 hours of sleep a night!
I've been working really hard on my YT channels. I have vlogged nearly every single day. (Basically, I forgot 2 nights ago and last night I didn't do it because I knew I wouldn't get through it without sobbing...which is the reason I didn't do it one other time earlier in the process.)
I got the call on January 16th and will be starting my new job on February 1st. I'm super, super excited about this. It's in my field, it's in my state, and it's in a higher tax bracket. All of this means that I won't have to move (which my kids are over the moon about as well) and I'll probably be in a new house very soon (I'm shooting for summer, but at least before next Christmas).
Hubs has an interview next week for a new job as well. I seriously have every finger and toe crossed on that one. He's interviewed with them 2 times before and hasn't landed a spot on the team. Maybe the 3rd time is the charm, as they say.
I've been super crazy busy at work as I try to finish things out. Plus we have some reports due this week so I even came in yesterday on the holiday to get some things done. It's been crazy, I tell you! I may just take a day off next week though to decompress before starting the new gig. No clue if that's actually going to happen...I will not leave my coworkers struggling if I can help it! I need to get as much done as I can before I leave.
My youngest son was informed that another spot was created for him from the school he attends for the All-State Children's Chorus. This will be his second year attending.
My oldest was informed that he has been placed in honor band. He will be performing at Marshall University on Friday and I couldn't be more proud of him! He absolutely loves band. He also loves making things with his hand and actually made me a bookshelf with his own two hands. It's beautiful and I absolutely love it. It's going to be featured in the new house for sure!! ;)
Finally, yesterday we got some of the saddest news in a very long time. My husband's grandfather passed away in his sleep. My mother-in-law found him yesterday morning. Needless to say she is more than torn up about it and I hate to see her so sad. We're all sad, though. I have been a part of my husband's family since I was about 13 years old, so his grandfather was my grandfather as well and my heart hurts to have lost such a brave, wise, and downright funny man. I told my husband last night that he is going to have to start telling me on a regular basis that I am the prettiest woman in the world...because his grandfather said this to me every single time I saw him. He would swear up and down, no matter what shape or size or manner of unkemptness, that I was prettier every single time he saw me. And it wasn't BS to him...I could tell by the way he doted on me. My absolute favorite moment of getting to know him was doing a paper on him for one of my college essays a few years ago. We talked about some of the crazy stunts he pulled as a kid, his time in the army...I just wish I had known him my entire life...or his entire life. He was a blessing to the world and I will miss him dearly.
So, the exercise thing, while on my mind, hasn't really mattered as of late. Things have been busy and crazy and happy and sad and up and down. I honestly feel more confident in my abilities, however, after getting through a birthday, landing a dream job, and now the death of a loved one without slipping into cheating myself and the Whole30 program. I have not been perfect. There have been a few misguided errors along the way, but I have been strong throughout, so I have confidence in myself moving forward.
...still... 8 days until I can have a few bites of dark chocolate...
Anyone know of any good plans for getting back into the exercise game slowly? Keep in mind I have no access to the gym right now and I even walking is frowned upon by my PT and podiatrist until the foot heals (and I'm honestly to the point where I'm not sure it ever really will).
Side note of strangeness: My feet finally shrank. Shrunk? Shrank? *sigh* They got smaller. I was a size 11 wide, now I wear a 10 - sometimes wide, sometimes medium. I still have to accommodate my ridiculously high arches (and, as the podiatrist puts it, "horrible bone structure" in my foot), but it has opened up my options for shoes at least. When I feel up to wearing something other than my tennis shoes with my inserts in them.

Comments about GAMO USA Varmint Hunter HP .22 Air Rifle with 4x32 Scope, Light and Laser:
I bought this gun on a close out for [$]. Figured it was a top of the line gun. Cleaned the barrel, removed the shooting rail that came on the gun, and added the additional scope mounted shooting rail. Put 200 rounds of 3 different crosman brands of ammo through it and then cleaned it again. There was some fouling towards the bullet seat. They were all around 4" at 20 yards. Put another 300 through it, and this gun only hit exactly where I was aiming 8 times. 1.5-2 inch groups at 20 yards. You can hear and feel the trigger creep. It may have been the scope that was causing the inconsistency,( I know how to correctly mount them and judge if they are moving). I feel if they are going to sell the gun and the scope, everything had better mesh up. If you want to consistently shoot 2" groups at 20 yards this is for you. Brought it back to the store, not accurate enough.

Going through customs at the San Antonio International Airport will be much easier for those who sign up for the Global Entry program.
On Aug. 29, 2012 Global Entry kiosks became available at the Airport. Passengers registered in the Global Entry program are able to bypass lines at customs by using the new Global Entry kiosks. The kiosks are able to read passengers' passports, scan their faces and fingerprints, allowing the passengers to exit in a much shorter time than waiting in lines.
In all, nearly 30 other U.S. airports have Global Entry kiosks. The Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport and the Houston Intercontinental Airport are the only other Texas airports participating in the Global Entry program.
Travelers interested in enrolling in the Global Entry program must be prescreened by officials with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency. The fee to enroll in the program is $100, which is good for five years.
For more information and instructions for applying for the Global Entry program, visit globalentry.gov.

I managed to fly directly into Raleigh-Durham yesterday. The flight arrived on time, I hadn't checked any baggage, and I was feeling even more optimistic about getting to the hotel before the evening kicked off when I realised that most people on the plane were heading for the 'US citizens' channel. Hurrah, I thought, a short wait at immigration for once!
This was a mistake. For as I joined said queue, it was announced that the US wasn't taking in any of us foreigners right now. The biometrics system had crashed (nationally, apparently), and without the ability to take our fingerprints for no particular purpose, well, they just couldn't risk letting us loose in their fair nation. So if we could just stand there, while they dealt with all the
real people US citizens first, then they might just get around to helping us.
I should note that as US immigration people go, everyone in NC was nice and friendly about it all (not to the extent that they'd let us make phone calls, or find us somewhere to sit while we waited, but they seemed pretty sympathetic), but I do wish that when, after an hour or so, it was announced that they'd decided to waive the need for biometrics, they hadn't made it sound so much like they were doing us a favour.

Campaign themes
On her campaign website, Weber outlined her campaign themes:[1]
- "As I examine this district, I realize that it was practically drawn for me. It includes San Diego State University, a place where I spent my career as a professor and administrator. It overlaps with much of the school board district that I represented for eight years. And, it is also the place where I am a homeowner, sent my children to public schools, and actively participated in the civic and cultural life of these neighborhoods for over 30 years. My roots run deep in the 79th. I ask for your support!"
Elections for the office of California State Assembly will take place in 2014. A primary election took place June 3, 2014. The general election will take place on November 4, 2014. The signature-filing deadline for candidates wishing to run in this election was March 7, 2014. Incumbent Shirley N. Weber (D) and write-in candidate George R. Williams (AI) were unopposed in the blanket primary.[2] Weber will face Williams in the general election.[3][4]
Weber won election in the 2012 election for California State Assembly District 79. She advanced past the blanket primary on June 5, 2012, defeating Sid Voorakkara (D), Patricia Ann Washington (D), Rudy Ramirez (D), and Matt Mendoza (R). Weber defeated Mary England (R) in the general election on November 6, 2012.[5][6]

Legislative scorecards are used to evaluate elected public officials based on voting record. Some scorecards are created by political advocacy groups with a focus on specific issues, while others are developed by newspapers and are broad in scope. Scorecards are meant to be used as a tool for voters to have a quick picture of whether their views align with a particular legislator's record.
Because scorecards can be specific to particular issues or general to a state's legislative term, for example, each report should be considered on its own merits. Each entity that publishes these reports uses different methodologies and definitions for the terms used.
An overview for scorecards in all 50 states can be found on this page. To contribute to the list of Arizona scorecards, email suggestions to email@example.com.
Please see our writing guidelines if you would like to add results from an individual scorecard to this legislator's profile.

United Way of Southern Nevada is helping local children and families with their dental health by holding a Dental Hygiene Drive, Monday, September 22 – Tuesday, September 30 (Monday through Friday, 8:30am – 5pm) at United Way of Southern Nevada.
Quality dental care is essential to insure a child's overall well-being. Tooth decay remains the single most common chronic disease among children. Dental disease can impact all aspects of children's lives, from their nutrition and sleep habits to their educational performance and self-esteem. With 36 percent of children living with untreated tooth decay, nine percent in dental pain and 65 percent of children uninsured and without health care resources, the dental hygiene drive will help to provide critical dental hygiene items to local children and families.
Please donate your new, packaged child and adult toothbrushes, toothpaste, floss and toothbrush covers. To learn more, visit volunteercentersn.org.
