Diet & exercise.Monday, March 22, 2010
Let me start by saying that I am not a trainer or nutritionist, but I am a pretty healthy person. Some may call me extreme. In fact, most people would call me extreme. I do splurge on occasion and had a bad habit of not eating frequently enough, but I have been doing really well with this new diet. Now I just need to get back to the gym!
I want to share what I have been doing, and will keep you posted on how this is working for me. For the most part, I always ate the same foods, but did not eat enough. My breakfasts were not large enough, and my dinners were not small enough.
Right now, I am in my "I need to tone up and until I do I am going pretty hard core" stage. Once I am where I want to be, I will let myself splurge on occasion. I tend to be a lot more laid back on the weekends. I like to go to lunch and dinner at least once each weekend, and love making a nice meal that I wouldn't normally eat at least once a week. That does not mean that I will eat an entire pie or a plate of french fries every weekend. It means I will have a meal or treat that I would not usually have, and that I'll go out to eat on the weekends. I will still be careful.
Since I have a pretty healthy diet and hope that I can give some of you some great ideas for healthy meals and snacks. Again -- I am not a nutritionist. This is just what I do. And please remember that I am from LA, and we are a little crazy with the health food here. I do want to tell you that I was not raised in a healthy house. My mom still bakes all the time and buys tons of unhealthy and processed foods. So no matter how you were raised, you can be healthy.
Here it goes...
I am not usually very hungry in the morning, so making breakfast my most substantial meal of the day started as a challenge for me. I could easily not eat until 1:00 and be just fine, but actually found that when I have a larger breakfast and start my day off right, I am less hungry throughout the day and have more energy.
I have an egg white omelet or scramble with broccoli {fiber!!} almost every morning, usually with Kashi's vanilla oatmeal. I will also have my fiber mix with breakfast {or with my morning snack}. I do not use any butter or oil, ever. Butter is so bad for you. I use Pam or a natural cooking spray.
Kashi's vanilla oatmeal is 100% natural, low in sugar, and has a great amount of fiber and protein. This is much better than Quak*er oatmeal because it is natural. You will see me mention this a lot. Just remember, you want to eat clean and natural food. No preservatives. No chemicals.
A whole grain english muffin or Milton's bread {the one in red packaging} are also great with your egg whites instead of oatmeal. It's nice to mix it up a little bit to keep things from getting boring. I love to put organic almond butter on my toast. Do not buy regular peanut butter! It is full of sugar. Organic peanut butter or almond butter is so so much better for you!
Snack info below
I have been trying to integrate chicken into my diet again, but I honestly cannot stand it. I really prefer veggie burgers and can tolerate turkey. I am not much of a meat eater at all. One of the healthier lunches or dinners you can have is a chicken breast {no skin!!} or fish and steamed veggies. Chicken salads are also great because you get lots of veggies and protein {chicken}. I also love having vegetable soup on hand. I will share my recipe with you soon. I will make a big pot of soup and have it throughout the week. This is the perfect lunch, dinner, or snack! I love it.
I really like Dr. Praeger's veggie burgers, because they are natural. I buy these at Trader Joe's and will have these for lunch or dinner.
I also love salad, so I will sometimes make or pick up a salad with a vinaigrette dressing. I avoid ranch and other creamy dressings because they are bad for you, and fat free dressing is full of chemicals. Watch the sugars, fat, and chemicals in dressing! Most food that advertises being fat free or 97% fat free are full of toxic chemicals. Our bodies do not know what to do with these things, so we think we are having a fat free food, but we are replacing fat with crazy things that our body cannot digest.
A tip I do have is to always order your dressing on the side and dip your fork in the dressing. That way you get a little flavor in each bite. You save tons of calories that way.
Snack info below
I will usually make a salad, veggie burger, my vegetable soup, or something light. Since I often work out at night, I will usually have a protein shake and some veggies or a little something else. I also love having veggie rolls or cucumber rolls {with brown rice}. I do not eat fish, but if you do, it is so good for you. Rotisserie chicken is always great, too. Just remember not to eat the skin because it is full of fat. Veggie burgers are always perfect for me. Trader Joe's has some great turkey sausage, but you want to watch for fat and sugar. Taco salads are also great. You can do some lean ground turkey, salsa, and lettuce. Simple and good.
I will post more dinner recipes as I start experimenting with new, healthy meals.
My dessert policy is going to seem extreme, but I promise you that I am not depriving myself. If I really want something, I will let myself have it, but I only have a few bites. I tend to not want dessert, because I know that it isn't good for you.
Eating fruit is great because it has natural sugars, so when you crave sweets, your body will register the sugar and it should satisfy your craving. I love having my protein shake at night because it feels like dessert to me. I share the recipe below.
If you need dessert, Whole Foods and Bristol Farms have mini pastries. I am sure you can find these at bakeries and other grocery stores as well. If you're living on your own, taking a big dessert home can be especially dangerous. I bought a mini key lime pie one night in Chicago. These are really tiny, and are perfect when you want just a little taste of dessert. Much better than eating a slice of pie {or worse -- the whole thing!}. Just take a few bites, eat slowly, savor the taste, and walk away. You will feel better the next day. Trust me.
I love Kashi TLC chewy granola bars, and usually have one with a piece of fruit for my morning snack. These are so good!! The peanut butter bars are my favorite. If you have a really busy morning, grab a bar and some fruit. It's better than not eating anything at all. They come in lots of great flavors, are 100% natural, are low in sugar, and are a great source of fiber and protein. These are perfect because you can keep one in your purse, so when you're out and hungry, you can have this instead of having to pick something up. It is so important to eat every few hours, because this keeps you from getting really hungry and eating too much. It also keeps your body fueled, and your metabolism working faster!
I also love Carman's muesli bars. They are also 100% natural, and are a great source of protein and fiber. They do have 50 more calories per bar than Kashi bars, but if you only have a bar once per day, these are great. I purchase these at Whole Foods. I like the original and apricot. The fruit ones have too much sugar.
Eating processed bars is not good for you. Many of these are high in calories and high in sugar! If they aren't natural, our bodies do not know how to digest them.
Another great snack is an organic apple or another piece of fruit and 10 almonds. I only have almonds once each day. When I saw a nutritionist almost 10 years ago, she told me to do this, and I have been doing it ever since. You just have to be careful and stop at 10! Eating 25+ almonds is not good for you. Grab 10 almonds and put the bag away. Do not snack out of a big bag.
Milton's bread makes for a great snack, too. I will sometimes have a piece of toast with almond butter for a snack with a piece of fruit. If I have almond butter, I skip having almonds that day.
Veggies are also a great snack. I will cut up cucumber sticks, which makes eating them a bit more enjoyable for some reason. Veggies are so good for you!! Learn to love them.
100 calorie popcorn bags are great. I do not have these all the time, but when you need a snack, these are a good alternative. You can also fit this in your purse and take it to the movies with you for a healthy movie snack. I do not think that any other 100 calorie packs are good for you since they are so processed. People think they are healthy, but they are full of chemicals.
If you love chips, go for Popchips. I love these. They are air popped and are {surprise, surprise} 100% natural! And they're GOOD. Everyone I have given popchips to has loved them. When I want chips, I pick up a back of BBQ Popchips and my craving is satisfied. I do not get these all the time, but they are nice to have on hand when you need them.
Another great snack is edamame. I will steam this and have some low sodium soy sauce. It is very high in protein and is also a good source of fiber.
If I go to the gym mid day, one of my snacks will be a protein shake. I sometimes have this for dinner with a little something. I will write about my protein shake below.
Another tip. Do not snack while you are at the computer, and if you can avoid it, do not watch TV while eating, either. Sit down and be aware of the fact that you are eating. You will likely eat less, and will feel full faster.
EATING OUTWhen I go out with friends, I try to make healthy choices. I usually avoid cocktails because they are full of sugar. I will often end up not ordering a drink, because I do not want to consume tons and tons of sugar. I realize this isn't an option for most of you, but in the end, those drinks are not going to help.
I will usually order a salad or a turkey or veggie burger, and will substitute fruit or a salad for fries. But when I really want or need fries, I'll get them. When I order a salad, I always get dressing on the side. If I order a veggie or turkey burger, I will eat 1/2 the bun, or no bun at all. I never eat the entire bun. Saying "I will never ever eat out, or never ever bread" will only set you up to fail. Living healthy and avoiding certain food most of the time but having what you want on occasion is the way to go. You stay healthy and satisfy cravings.
A lot of restaurants will also tell you the calorie content of food they serve, so you can look that up online prior to going out to eat. For example, you can build a Chip*otle burrito or bowl. Chipo*tle is {in my opinion} is not a healthy option at all. I will not eat there.
And remember that ordering a salad does not mean that you are making a healthy choice. For example, the BBQ ranch chicken salad at Cheesec*ake Fact*ory has over 600 calories and almost 1000 mg of sodium. That is horribe. If I were to order this salad {I used to order it a long time ago} I would order it with no chicken, no avocado, no crispy fried onion strings, and dressing on the side. I end up having maybe half the dressing, and probably cut the calories quite a bit. Removing unnecessary toppings (fried onions, crispy tortilla strips, etc... can really make a difference}.
DRINKSI drink water, and am working on drinking more water because I do not drink nearly enough of it. I do not drink soda, and am giving up my lattes, although I only had them maybe 1-2x per week. Since I really love them, I may get one every week or two. In the end, having it once every week or every other week will satisfy the craving, save money, and will keep me from feeling deprived. My policy is to not drink my calories, and since I also avoid dairy, lattes should really be out, too. Americans drink their calories. It is just crazy. Drink water! I will occasionally have a diet coke {because I do like it} but that is very, very rare. Soda is toxic. I have seen 2 nutritionists and a few trainers. They have all said not to drink soda.
If you need a boost, have some tea. It is natural and has caffeine. It will also help flush fat and other toxins out of your system.
I recently discovered GT's Kombucha. You can learn about Kombucha here. I have picked up Kombucha at both Whole Foods and Bristol Farms. If you do not have either of those stores near you, visit GT's website to find out where you can find this nearby.
These are definitely an acquired taste. I like them, but my family does not. I recommend that you try it. This stuff isn't cheap. 1 bottle is $3.60 and has 2 servings. I am trying to find a better price somewhere, but it seems that it is actually more expensive online. Having 1 bottle a day could really add up, but you could have 1 bottle every two days. Each serving has only 2 grams of {natural} sugar. While it is on the more expensive side, it is really good for you, and it is much cheaper than eating out or drinking coffee each day. The citrus and strawberry flavors are the only two I have had so far, and I do like both, although I prefer the strawberry. I have a few bottles of other flavors in the fridge, so I will be sure to let you know what I think of those.
Kombucha has probiotics, live active enzymes, antioxidants, organic acids, and polyphenols. It supports digestion, metabolism, immune system, appetite control, weight control, liver function, & healthy skin and hair. In my opinion, that extensive list makes it so, so worth it. I had half a bottle the past two days, and felt like I had more energy and was not nearly as hungry as I usually am. I will let you know how I feel over the next week.
I really want to get a juicer and start juicing. I would love to start making fruit and veggie concoctions. Do you juice?
One of the most important things I learned is to drink a lot of water. It will flush out your system, and is so, so good for you. This is {for whatever reason} a challenge for me. When I first saw a nutritionist {I do not see one now. This was a long time ago} my first assignment was not to change a diet but to drink 3 big bottles of water a day. I lost 3 lbs my first week. So I have been working on my water intake.
FIBERFiber is so important for your daily health. It is recommended that we get at least 25 grams per day, yet the average American does not come close to that. I have a home made fiber mix each day. I cannot share the recipe since it is not mine to share, but there are some great mixes out there! Here is a great list of foods that are rich in fiber.
I take 1 scoop of Designer Whey protein in vanilla, and mix that in the blender with a banana, ice, and a little water. I recently started adding a spoon of almond butter. This {to me} tastes like a blended banana smoothie. I love it. I will have this after a workout or with a very small meal when I need protein. This is great to have as a snack, with a smaller lunch or dinner, or as a dessert.
DESSERTIf you have to have dessert, have dessert. As I mentioned above, mini desserts are ideal because you get the taste of what you want without having too much. Taking a bite or two is also a great solution. If you must have ice cream, have ice cream. If I do want a dessert, I will have a few bites, or will pick up a mini dessert. I rarely do this, though. If you absolutely have to have a snack after dinner, check out my snack list. I do recommend drinking some tea or munching on veggies if you need something.
I use butter when I bake {which is pretty rare} and never use it otherwise. I cannot recall ever spreading butter on bread, and I avoid recipes that call for butter, unless I am baking. When you spread butter on your food, you are spreading lard on something that you are about to put in your body. So gross and so bad for you. If you want to lose weight, lose the butter.
I do not cook with oil. I will use Pam or a natural cooking spray.
I also try to avoid splenda and other artifical sweeteners. I used to order those no sugar added drinks. They have aspartame {like Diet C*oke}. Well guess what? That stuff is really, really bad for you. Stevia is a natural alternative. I do not use it, but know people who do, and I have read some pretty good things about it.
Dairy. This is a controversial one. Remember that I am not a nutritionist, so I am not telling anyone what to do. My theory on diary is as follows. Cow's milk was not designed for the human body. Our bodies were designed to consume breast milk, and lose all the enzymes that digest milk by age 3. So, I tend to avoid dairy because eating it does not make sense, and our bodies do not digest it. This does not mean that I never have it. I just tend to avoid it day to day.
If you look at ingredients and see the names of all kinds of crazy chemicals or high fructose corn syrup, throw things things away now! They are so bad for you!! I also recommend avoiding sugar as much as possible.
When a product is low fat or 90something% fat free, you should expect to see tons of chemicals in there. So all those low cal ice cream treats, frozen yogurt, etc... I'm sure you have heard of Ski*nny Cow ice cream. It seems healthy, but is actually terrible for you. If you really, really want ice cream, you are better off just having the real thing. Just have 1 scoop and not 3.
Enriched flour. Take white bread, for example. Our bodies do not digest this. If you have to have bread, go for Milton's {I linked it under breakfast}.
EXERCISEThis is always a tough one for me. In a perfect world, I would go to the gym at least 5 days a week. I was doing so, so well and got in a car accident last November. That killed my workouts. Then I did quite a bit of traveling, which made working out even more difficult. The accident wasn't that bad, but my neck was so sore, and still is pretty sore. Physical therapy is helping, and my doctor said to just start working out again to strengthen my neck. I need to get to the point where I go at least 5 days a week on a regular basis. I feel better when I work out, and want it to be a part of my regular routine.
I will do the elliptical or bike when I need to get in some cardio. We have bad knees in my family, and I have already torn cartilage, so running is out for me. I like to mix it up by doing one machine for 30 min and then another for the remaining 30 min. I also do intervals when doing cardio. This means you bump up the resistance for a minute, then lower it for a minute and so on. That keeps your body guessing. Doing the same thing for an hour won't shock your body, but changing the pace will! I also love classes! Yoga, spinning, rowing, etc...
I recently purchased Jillian Michael's 30 day shred, so I want to start doing that, too. I tried it once in Chicago and really liked it. My neck just wasn't ready at the time. I love that there are different levels, so you start at level 1 and work your way up.
I will be sure to add and update as new things come up and as I find more recipes and ideas. I would also love to hear your diet & workout tips {and recipes} if you would like to share them. I am always looking up new and healthy snacks & recipes, so I will be on the lookout and will share anything great that I find.
I do expect that following a more scheduled diet will change my body, and I will keep you posted on that. I want to reiterate one last time that I am not a nutritionist, and that actually following this plan is new to me. I always ate pretty healthy but have been horrible about eating enough, so I am not in amazing shape. I would also have bread and pasta, which I am drastically cutting back on. I need to tone up!
If you have any questions about anything I posted, please feel free to ask.

Love all of your tips and ideas. Thanks for sharing! I have the Shred and it was hard on my knees...and I don't have bad knees, so be careful. My friend said the same thing about her knees...ReplyDelete
I am in the process of trying to lose 30 pounds. I have lost 7 ... 23 to go. So, thanks- every little bit helps.
Great post Danielle....I have been working out consistently since Sept at least 5 days a week...I can tell I am stronger and have more endurance, but the big thing for me is watching what I eat too. I dont have weight to lose, but I do need to lose a layer of "fat" so my weight training will be more visible. I LOVE Oxygen magazine if you haven't read that...it is so great! Tosca Reno from Clean Eating Magazine also does great articles in Oxygen. For the past 3 months I have followed a series of weight training that they featured...if you haven't looked at it, pick it up I think you will love it!ReplyDelete
I've tried raw Kombucha and couldn't get past the smell of vinegar. BTW, I've awarded you a Beautiful Blog Award!ReplyDelete
Sounds like you do take care of yourself.. I would be afraid to write down what I wrote in a day :)ReplyDelete
Loved reading about your diet/exercise tips & plans...sounds like you know your stuff! ;)ReplyDelete
I love Kombucha! I just tried it for the first time a few weeks ago, and I'm hooked! I had read about it in a fellow blogger's posts and picked it up at Whole Foods. I think it's great!
OMG! I loved this post Danielle and I'm so pleased to see that you found Kombucha!! I loveeee that stuff. I'm so happy to see someone else as obsessed with natural food as I am:) Sometimes I feel so alone because I'm really picky about chemicals and additives in food and I think people think I'm snobby because I care SO much about what goes into my body. But I seriously have to start working out LOLReplyDelete
You are so disciplined--this is a very impressive list! I like your breakfast suggestion...I should consider trying it. ALWAYS hungry constantly in the afternoon and I'm sure more protein would help.ReplyDelete
Hope you had a great weekend, and let's pick a day to visit!
thanks for sharing. I am always interested in healty eating tips!ReplyDelete
You sound just like I did two years ago, however, it sounds like you've got your head in the right place but just be sure to confuse your distaste and avoidance of foods with a fear of foods because it can quickly tumble down into an eating disorder.ReplyDelete
Trust me. You're so gaunt people don't recognize you, your hair falls out, it's not pretty.
Also, dairy is a go. FAGE Greek yogurt, the 0% has 20 grams of protein per serving and only 7 grams of naturally occurring sugars in the unsweetened kind. Calcium also contributes to weight loss, look into "How The Rich Get Thin." All About calcium.
And you should somehow incorporate iron into your diet. I know you said you don't eat red meat but try iron pills.
I was a hardcore vegan for awhile and lost so much weight I was b6, b12 and iron deficient so much, it was beyond concerning.
My new motto is everything in moderation because we're all dying anyways, so I enjoy what I like but not to the point where I hurt myself or my body. I'm a work in progress, I guess.
Thanks for sharing! :)
you inspire me to want to be more healthy again! I miss it! I'm going to save this and forward to hubs...maybe we can work on a plan for post pregnancy..and post hospital...I don't look forward to weeks/months of that food!ReplyDelete
I really enjoyed this post and linked it on my blog. Great info!ReplyDelete
Great post! I drink a GT Kombucha every day! My husband calls it my crack. I love it and swear by it!ReplyDelete

So after trying every custom ROM on here, it seems I cant flash anything and Im not sure why. I thought I was just getting corrupted downloads, but I think its more than that now as it doesnt matter which rom, how its downloaded, etc.When I boot to recovery and try to flash anything this is what I see this is what I see:battery level is 96No APP files found in SD card---------FAIL---------Install /sdcardFinding update package...Opening update package...Verifying update package...E: signature verification failed...E: installation failedInstallation aborted----------------Im running the stock rom, rooted with superuser, and used the guide here to install recovery. Ive tried it with factory resetting/wiping cache, just wiping cache, and not wiping anything hoping something would give me a different result. Any idea where I went wrong and how to get to a point that I can flash roms?

Kindle App not working after Android 4.3 upgrade
Saturday 10th of August 2013
Well..I hit update for Android 4.3 and now my Amazon Kindle app doesn't work on my Nexus 7. I went to Google Play and saw there was an update available for Kindle so tried that but it failed to update as well. I then uninstalled and tried to re-install it but still get an error. Im guessing something is not compatible but how do I find this out? Is there a way to backlevel back to the previous Android level? Kindle is one of the main reasons I have this tablet so this really sucks. Any help would be appreciated. Update: I guess it is affecting other apps. I cant download or update any app without getting the error "Update for xxxx could not be downloaded due to an error (927)".

Thursday 03rd of October 2013
Hello everyone, 1st post here so please understand im not as tech savvy as the rest of you so ill try to explain this as best I can. Prior to updating my HTC one (Dev issued phone), you could access the app drawer by pressing the center button on the HTC one, here you could take apps out of this drawer and place them in your task bar ( the blank spaces between the drawer button previously mentioned) and it would in sense "remove" them from the drawer.However with the update to 4.3 Jellybean ( i believe its called) any app moved out of the drawer stays and it almost make a short cut to the app. Hiding the app hides the app from all view, either by task bar, app window, or back in the main screen, and so far I am unable to have that clean look I am so used to. This is very annoying and frustrating as I can get back to what I had and I cant find any videos or anyone else having this issue. I hope I was able to explain this clearly enough I can provide Screen shots if needed or provide further assistance. Any tips tricks or a work around would be very appreciated.Thank you so m

Massive problems with 4.3 update (urgent help needed)
Wednesday 18th of December 2013
I just received the 4.3 update OTA on Sunday, and now i have MASSIVE problems with my phone. my battery is draining rapidly, i cant access any files- My files freezes my phone, i cant download apps, or files from emails, my camera cant save photos, gallery freezes my phone, it reboots randomly, and vibrates randomly. I cant even connect to a PC Sprint recommends a clean wipe, but there are files i don't want to loose. the easy answer is "you should have backed up first" well... i would have had i known it was doing a massive update. i didn't get any warning it was going to download, let alone break my phone. is there any work arounds to get my files off the internal storage, or a new rom onto the sd card to then recover, or even a sideload of a file management app which might be able to read my internal memory? I do not have a PC at home to work from, only an adroid tablet. and my phone is my only Internet source at home.

Structure fire in Redding destroys home
Updated On: Jul 18 2013 08:18:16 PM CDT
Firefighters battled a two-alarm house fire on Washington Ave., just off of Park Marina Dr. in Redding.
When firefighters arrived on the scene, the fire had burned a quarter of the house, forcing the firefighters to call for help.
Most of Redding's firefighting resources were assigned to the incident.
The fire investigator at the scene said there may have been multiple family pets inside of the home. The homeowner was at the scene and was distraught.
Redding Fire said they were planning on helping the family with temporary housing.
The fire was originally dispatched as a cooking fire and the homeowner told firefighters that she had left bacon in the oven while making a short trip.
The official cause of the fire is not known.

Hey guys,
Heres my current gear, Tyberius
atm, my guild is 4/5 Hyjal and 3/9 BT and i MT for most of it.
I know that my parry is a bit low, but thats only due to the fact that i just subbed out my T5 legs and lost about 3-4% parry.
My gear atm is just my general tanking gear where ive tried to mix in a bit of threat and some BV gear as well, but mainly focusing on keeping my EH higher without sacrificing to much avoidance.
Also, what dodge/parry/block/health should i be shooting for in order to MT Illidan??
EDIT: I also have a pretty good avoidance and threat set now thanks to the 2.4 - 3 Badge gear

Blizz needs to bring out Classic Wow Servers
- Back To:
- Board List

So we can relive the glory days of great old Classic Wow. Reason include:
Epics were epic
Great AV battles
Cool raids like MC, Naxx40, Ony, AQ40
Old Honour System
Close server communities
And so much more!!!
Who else hopes blizz will bring out a Wow 1.12 server?
Xbox Live GT: Nebbycat2004
blizz really ruined the game with all these patches and improvements.

Classic WoW sucked. It was the best at the time, yes, but Classic WoW is worse than most modern-MMOs on the market today.
|| AMD Phenom II x6 1065T || nVidia GTX 560Ti || Thermaltake 600 watt PSU || 8GB DDR3 || Windows 7
Classic and current WoW (Well before I left when Cata ruined the game by making it hard mode. Before you say Cata is not hard I was one of the millions who left after reading this http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/2053469) feel like the world is literally alive.
No loading screens or barely any loading screens. You have animals all over, the music you can play in a loop and everything seems to fit with each other.
SWTOR for example feels stale no real music blending in except every once in a while and in combat. Its just a bore and a chore.

So we can relive the glory days of great old Classic Wow. Reason include:
Considering how often this topic comes up, and how many people shoot it down, I'd reckon that if there was a Classic server option, and the people who feel positively did move there, then both of you would feel somewhat disappointed.
In the book, it says He created us to be just like Him. So if we're dumb, then God is dumb, and maybe a little bit ugly on the side. - Zappa
Yeah they should totally make classic servers. You know, for the 3 people that keep requesting them.

"Evil can be found everywhere, but it will never win as long as there are enough good people who fight against it."-Luca Turilli
I'd like some classic AV. But not the classic 3 days games. But the classic 2 to 4 hours ones. You know the ones before the 1st patch that changed them, but not before the 3rd or 4th patch that changed them.
I'd also like the classic game to be stopped at patch 1.4 because that was when Shaman were gods. But I'd still like it to include some of the stuff from later patches. Like Naxx, AQ and ZG,
Move on the game has it's time people did.
-Because spelling isn't important on the Internet. Grow up.-
I'd like them to do a few servers just so that people who think it's the best era can really see how much the game has changed. No mounts until 40? Great! Resist gear? Awesome! Like buffing? Paladin's your class! Like to res? Great, stay out of combat and you can do it all day!

As thousands line up for Apple's brand new iPhone today, BlackBerry, once a leading mobile phone company, announced that it will lay off over 4,500 employees or 40 percent of its workforce.
After reporting a surprise billion-dollar second-quarter loss, the company's stock fell more than 20 percent. Blackberry said in a statement it expects to report quarterly revenue of $1.6 billion compared with $3.04 billion that was expected.
"The latest new from Blackberry is yet another indication that the company desperately needs to find a new owner, the only hope for a turnaround," Patrick Moorhead, founder and principal analyst of Moorhead Insights, told ABC News. "They were late with mobile touch, a modern mobile operating system and an app store, and don't have the cash or the time to go after it alone."
The news, which was reported earlier this week by the Wall Street Journal, comes after a series of bad quarters for the company. While the company released its the new 5-inch Z30 smartphone this week and its new BlackBerry 10 operating system in January, it has been struggling to keep pace with other phone makers. In the last quarter the company only shipped 2.7 million of its new BlackBerry 10 devices.
The Wall Street Journal also reported last month that Blackberry's board was looking at alternatives for the company by November, including a possible sale. BlackBerry plans to release its once-popular BlackBerry Messenger or BBM for the iPhone and Android this weekend.

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - New York's governor wants to speed up the implementation of the state's new medical marijuana law to help children with epilepsy get medication more quickly.
Right now it's expected to take 18 months for the state to get the medical marijuana program up and running. Many parents of children with epilepsy had said that is too long to wait.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Wednesday wrote to the state's health commissioner asking if the process can be accelerated.
Earlier this month New York became the 23rd state to authorize medical marijuana for patients with diseases including AIDS, cancer and epilepsy.
Parents of children with epilepsy were among the staunchest supporters for the new law, saying medical marijuana has shown promise in helping children with the condition.

AN inner-city swimming club is struggling to keep its programs afloat after the Sherbook Pool was closed suddenly last week.
The Sherbrook Sharks Swim Club was displaced from its local pool without notice when the city closed the Sherbook Pool after an inspection. The city said the pool is expected to remain closed for an "extended period of time" while a detailed structural engineering assessment is performed by a private engineering firm assisting city staff.
Sherbrook Sharks club president Karla Dueck Thiessen said the city has provided the 35 Sharks members with new waters to swim in, at the Cindy Klassen Recreation Complex, but transportation is a roadblock for the children, aged 7 to 15.
"We're grateful for the City of Winnipeg's continued support but we've actually had a good chunk of our swimmers not show up for the last few days because they haven't been able to get there," Dueck Thiessen said. The kids usually swim four times a week for two hours at a time.
"I've been making some calls to see if we could get some bus tickets donated to help us out with getting these kids to the pool because a lot of these families, their parents don't have vehicles."
She has contacted the city's aquatics department and Daniel McIntyre Coun. Harvey Smith to see if any assistance is available to the club.
"Many of our swimmers walk to practice and we are hoping that the pool can reopen quickly so we can continue to provide this great program to the local children in our community," she said.
Dueck Thiessen said she was allowed inside the building last week to collect the club's belongings and indications are the 80-year-old facility will be closed until next summer or longer.
"I saw the issue and it's not a quick fix. It's a support beam holding up the roof structure. I only saw one of the beams but it was pretty badly deteriorated. If they're all like that, it's a huge job," she said.
"Repairing it is going to be very expensive and very time-consuming. With the age of the pool, we certainly hope the city sees it as worth fixing. I do know we need this pool in our neighbourhood. I've lived here for 15 years and it's one of the only things that families can do together for relatively little or no cost."
The swim club's financial future is also tied to the pool, she said.
"We need it to stay open and in the long term, it doesn't help to shuttle us off to another pool," she said. "We're grateful for that right now and we'll try to make it work short-term but even our funding that we get from the community clubs is dependent on the fact that we are serving the kids in our neighbourhood," said Dueck Thiessen, who has two children who swim with the Sharks club.
She said the City of Winnipeg provides the club with a grant each year for pool time at the Sherbrook Pool and many businesses and community agencies also support the club with donations and funding.
"It's a pretty old pool and it has deteriorated over the years. Minor repairs have been made from time to time but a big renovation is needed so we're really hoping they (the city) see the value in that," Dueck Thiessen said. "We really want to see this pool reopened, whatever it takes to do it."
The majority of Sherbrook's fall swimming lessons were moved to other pools but winter programs will not be offered at the facility.
"I like the warm water at the Sherbrook Pool and being able to be a part of the Sherbrook Sharks Swim Club where I can learn to swim fast and be healthy."
-- Aiden, age 9
"I have been going to the Sherbrook Pool since I was a baby. I like that the Sherbrook Pool is so close I can walk there by myself now. It feels like home!"
-- Jubilee, age 12
"I like going to the Sherbrook Pool because the water is warm and the staff are very helpful and friendly."
-- Angelina, age 11
"I treasure what I have been able to learn at the Sherbrook Pool; how the programs I have been a part of have nurtured me, and the friendships I have developed there. It has so much history and I am a part of it!"
-- Ruthanna, age 11

A powerful argument with citation and 140 sources proving unequivocally that the North did not go to war to end slavery or free the slaves. The cause of the War Between the States (Civil War) was the threatened economic annihilation of the North brought about by the secession of the Southern States. The North quickly discovered that its great wealth and employment depended on manufacturing and shipping for the South, and without the South, the North was headed fast to economic collapse and anarchy.

Finland is known for its consistent progress in the economy and competitiveness, as well as the egalitarian society underneath it. Yet, the challenges experienced by Finland in the beginning of the 20th century were similar to those experienced by many countries today. Finland emerged as an independent nation in the midst of international economic and political turbulence. In spite of its remoteness, relative scarcity of natural resources, smallness of the home market and recent history characterized by wars and social cleavages, Finland transformed itself from an agriculture-based economy in

While economic growth has been sustained for a number of years in many countries in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, this has not resulted in the creation of an adequate number of jobs and has succeeded, at best, in generating low-quality, informal jobs. While there is a great deal of heterogeneity across countries, informality in MENA is widespread, and some countries in the region are amongst the most informal economies in the world. The book looks at informality through a human development angle and focuses specifically on informal employment. In line with this approach, the

ASOIAF Challenge
↳ 02. Most Powerful Lines (4/5) || Jaime Lannister
The words echoed in his head in the dimness of Baelor's Sept. Above him, all the windows had gone black, and he could see the faint light of distant stars. The sun had set for good and all. The stench of death was growing stronger, despite the scented candles. The smell reminded Jaime Lannister of the pass below the Golden Tooth, where he had won a glorious victory in the first days of the war. On the morning after the battle, the crows had feasted on victors and vanquished alike, as once they had feasted on Rhaegar Targaryen after the Trident. How much can a crown be worth, when a crow can dine upon a king?

Updated On: Feb 13 2014 02:00:15 PM MST
Montana Sen. John Tester is the new chairman of the Senate Indian Affairs Committee, while interim Montana Sen. John Walsh has announced his appointment to four committees.
Tester has served on the Indian Affairs Committee for seven years and takes over for former chairman Sen. Maria Cantwell of Washington, who chaired her final committee hearing Wednesday. Tester says he'll address many issues affecting Indian Country but will focus on improving tribal schools and colleges.
Walsh was sworn in Tuesday to finish former Sen. Max Baucus' term. He announced Thursday that he was appointed to the Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry Committee; the Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee; the Rules and Administration Committee and the Special Committee on Aging.
Both Tester and Walsh are Democrats.

The Evergreen and Conifer post offices are playing musical chairs with their postmasters.
When Evergreen postmaster Sid Henderson left to become postmaster in Parker, Lisa Mantey left the Conifer postmaster position to become the temporary Evergreen postmaster, known as the officer in charge.
Trudy Finan, who has been Eagle's postmaster, is filling in as Conifer's officer in charge while Mantey is at the Evergreen post office.
Car thieves in Jeffco now must combat a much more organized police presence.
The Jefferson County Regional Auto Theft Task Force, which launched July 1, teams car-theft investigators from the Jeffco Sheriff's Office and police from Arvada, Lakewood and Wheat Ridge.
This October, Evergreen High School might be able to host a home football game for the first time since 1978.
The school, whose current bleachers seat a little over 300, may be getting larger, portable bleachers with the help of Journey Community Church, Conifer High School and the Jefferson County school district.
Conifer and Evergreen high schools will share the bleachers, which can seat 2,000 people.
Amid the controversy over a proposed charity bicycle event on Deer Creek Canyon Road, the Jeffco commissioners will propose state legislation that would give them more authority to bar cyclists from some county roads altogether.
EVERGREEN — Running, or any form of exercise, is typically more enjoyable when you have someone to share the experience with.
Abby Bond likes to run. She also likes her 11 year-old dog, Sasha.
About a month ago, the 14 year-old Bond combined her two interests. The results were magic.
The duo set out a couple of times a week on runs that would go around three miles. On the non-running days, Bond and her trusty sidekick made sure to at least get in a quality walk.
EVERGREEN — Nathan Rice's Fourth of July began with a thud and a little bit of blood.
Rice was tripped up at the start line of the Freedom Run 5k and came away with a few cuts and scrapes on his hands and legs.
The Lafayette resident didn't stay down long. He quickly dusted himself off, then caught up with the lead pack and made his winning move with a half-mile to go, claiming the Freedom Run title with a time of 15 minutes, 39 seconds.
There were times when the Evergreen Cougars scored at will July 1 against the Ralston Valley Mustangs.
There were times when the Mustangs did the same. And they did it more.
The Cougars tried to keep pace as the Mustangs lit the proverbial barn and started running. Despite clawing back from an early hole, the Cougars were dropped 18-9 in five innings ahead of the final week of regular-season summer baseball.
Evergreen dog owner Carol Peterson pleaded guilty to a class 2 misdemeanor June 29 for an incident in which her Labrador mix attacked a Hiwan Hills woman on May 18. Peterson paid $151 in fines and court fees. A restitution hearing is set for Sept. 14.
The Hiwan Hills woman who was attacked was bitten five times on the backs of both legs while walking down the street near a home on 2957 Hiwan Drive.
For the second month in a row, the Evergreen Park and Recreation District board concluded a regular meeting by closing the doors to the public for a discussion about an unidentified "real estate matter."
The board of directors added the executive session to the agenda of the June 23 regular meeting at the last minute and did not reveal any details at the time. The Colorado Open Meetings Law has strict rules about closing meetings to the public, but boards can do so in the case of real estate and personnel matters.
Creativity combined with henna dye for about 30 area teens, who learned the art of henna body painting last week.
The youths attended a seminar July 1 at the Evergreen Library with henna artist Kandra Churchwell. Churchwell, who works professionally as a graphic artist, has learned to work with henna dye and spent an hour in the packed room helping girls and boys master the ancient art.
In her 15-minute introductory lecture, Churchwell explained that henna body art is something that she and her family do for fun.

text: Schweizer: Eric Holder Like 'Squeegee Guy Holding the Brick' Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 22 Oct 2013 post a comment On Tuesday's Hannity on Fox News, Breitbart News Senior Editor-at-Large and Government Accountability Institute (GAI) president Peter Schweizer said Attorney General Eric Holder is like the "squeegee guy holding the brick" in describing how President Barack Obama's Justice Department has extorted campaign contributions from individuals and companies. "You gotta pay them or the brick is coming through the window," Schweizer said of the squeegee man that comes up to one's car with a brick in one hand a cloth in the other. "We literally have that kind of situation in Washington, D.C. involving the president and members of Congress from both parties." As Breitbart News reported, in Extortion: How Politicians Extract Your Money, Buy Votes, and Line Their Own Pockets, Schweizer details how lawmakers in Washington's permanent political class extract campaign contributions from donors to subsidize their lavish lifestyles. Some of Schweizer's research about these "slush funds" from congressional "leadership PACs" was revealed in a 60 Minutes exposé on Sunday. Schweizer said these extortion schemes begin with Obama and the facts, supported by hundreds of footnotes, "are undeniable." In his book, Schweizer said there is documentation that the Obama campaign and political committees associated with Obama solicited donations from companies after the Justice Department filed civil and criminal charges against them. Schweizer said this is a "huge problem" and there is "statistical evidence" in the book that proves the chances of going to jail are lessened if political contributions are made. "You cut your chances of going to jail in half if you make a contribution," Schweizer told host Sean Hannity. Schweizer said the top five positions in the Department of Justice, beginning with Holder, were all campaign bundlers for the Obama campaign, and this unlike what Washington has seen before. "So, you had fundraisers who were raising money and put into power who are now making decisions about who they're going to prosecute, who they're not not going to prosecute," Schweizer said. "You see this melding of DOJ and the campaign apparatus of the Obama campaign." Extortion, which is putting Washington on "red alert," was released on Tuesday. It has already rocketed up to #75 on Amazon's list of top-selling books and is the top-selling book in the "Politics and Social Sciences" section.
