I went to a LOT of trouble to upload the best available quality for the ENTIRE concert from 18yrs ago!! Star studded - Clapton, N Young, S Wonder, T Petty, T Chapman, etc, etc. I started with 13 GIGs of vob files (4:3) - joined the vob's and re-authored to avi at 3.63 Gb - but it's 3h 11m 48s long and burns to ONE dvd! Audio in synch throughout (unlike most other up's) TOO MANY ppl to thank - but this is the BEST quality available for its age. If you're a Dylan fan, you owe it to yourself to d/l this and SEED!! Hope you enjoy.
Thanks. Good audio en video quality.
wow, i didn't believe this existed, i haven't dl it yet, but thanks a lot guy..
nice quality,nice show...thanks
Thank you. Thank you very much for this.

School Bullying
Lisa Bunnage, Parenting Coach, discusses school bullying prevention. Back to Article
Kay: -.- fine why not. and im calling you Kay by the way.
I get bullied bc im spanish
Angie: xD Yeah.
I'm calling you Angie btw
Bullies suck.
Arianna: Tee hee x3
Some people think I'M the bully. Silly xD
Christine: I know right
Kaylee: YOU GO KAYLEE XD
I teach the bullies who's boss.
at AriannaWWE: I agree. They have nobody else to blame but themselves when they start feeling guilt for not helping that person.
I wish that bystanders would do something about instead of just watching.
Bullies are pathetic. Why waste your time picking on somebody? That's why I ignore them and pretend they never existed. They are not worth my time; and tbh, people who bully for no reason are not going to get very far in life. I see pain in their future when people find out what they did and rejects them I guarantee that.
Omg..I seriously hate bullies at schools!! -snarls-
like so boo u dumb bullies
I hate bullies!!!!!!
omg I hate bullies at schools
we can stop bullying
ive always been bullied by everyone.... makes me so sad.
When i move back to texas and back to my
friends.. they just block me out. I'm not sure if thats bullying or not. But it sure dose feel like it.
im always bullied cause of my hair. u know how long it is and cause its red.
I was never really bullied just picked on because I was, well I am a quiet person. I never really stood up for myself. This only happened for about a 2 years. Then I made some changes and it eventually stopped. No one should be picked on or bullied, its not right.

Oyster system failure causes travel misery
London commuters are suffering more problems than usual this morning, thanks to the weekend failure of the Oyster card readers at tube stations and on buses. Extra staff have been drafted in this morning to sort out problems with cards which were used between 5.30am and 10.30am on Saturday. Some cards were apparently wiped, …
Not the cards
Despite how the lay media make it sound, the Oyster cards can't all simultaneously decide to stop working. They must have released an update to the barriers over night which buggered the system.
The barriers then buggered the cards, which is why some still aren't working today. Although I don't know why all free roaming cards would be affected, which is the impression I get from the TFL statement.
Busses are worse because they only can be updated at the depots. But I did find that 184 to Turnpike Lane Station on Friday morning wasn't accepting my Oyster card either. I wonder if this was related or not.
Doesn't bother me though, they can be buggered for years, I'm not inconvenienced in the slightest. In fact, it's quite a convenience not having to pay.
Roll on the National ID
Clearly this sort of thing can be solved by the National ID. I have it in my pocket here somewhere, what I don't need to show it? you already scanned me? wow that's efficent.
So adding 142 and 344 together we get...
Given that a lot of cards need to be replaced, I think maybe that this was a trial of some sort of anti-hacking patch in response to those Dutch researchers?
Of course, it all went horribly wrong and disabled a load of legitimate cards instead...
London Bridge
I went through London Bridge station at about 12.50 on Saturday lunchtime and they were making announcements then that you shouldn't, under any circumstances, touch your Oyster card in or out. The buses coming up towards Brixton from Croydon were still showing "Free Travel" notices on their Oyster card readers at about 6pm Saturday.
My first thoughts were "I wonder if the system has been hacked" followed by "I wonder if they've fucked the system trying to patch it from hacking". While the former would be funny, I suspect the latter may be more true.
unbelievably convoluted process for getting a replacement card...
Inceredibly annoyed - not so much at the technical fault and problems it caused - we all know these things happen - but more at the insanely convoluted procedure I have to go through to get a new card. I've just taken a look at the form I have to fill in - TWO PAGES of personal details WHICH THEY ALREADY HAVE ABOUT ME and the obligation to provide some form of proof of address. not the kind of thing I walk around with every day.
They have my home address, why can't they simply send me a new card in the post? It's perfectly secure, and it's the minimum hassle for both them and me - no booth interactions and no processing forms.
morons. "oh, sorry customers, we've already wasted loads of your time with our broken system, why not waste even more time fillling in ****ing pointless forms"
grrrr. where's the "angry" emoticon, eh?
As the proud owner of an....
.....unregistered and working oyster card, I'm still trying to work out in the name of the DPA, why they need your name and address?
Anyhoo, I'm away for the summer, so if you see the SAS (TFL battlegroup) leaping out of black helicopters over Catford, on or around the 17th Sept, it's just me trying to renew it.
Rumour has it
They were trying to lock an super user account in name "Ken L"
Cloned Cards
Perhaps someone tried a cloned (or otherwise messed with) card and that caused a glitch in the software causing all this?
Opps! my bad ...
my RFID implant tried to give the Oyster card computers a nasty virus turning it briefly into another one of my hoard of mindless drones that spew out mindless crap 99.9% of the time ...
Still trying to find a cure that after the last time I visited Parliament ...
KB951748 issue?
So, to put in in a language that we all understand:
TfL solved the problem by reducing the security of their Zonealarm firewall to Medium. All services will be back online fully when TfL test and then install the ZoneAlarm patch issued by Check Point Software.
TfL recommends Windows (TM).
The kids ran riot..
Around these parts on Saturday the kids were on all the buses causing mischief, harranging passengers, destroying bits of the bus and playing with the emergency doors. Apparently it didn't take them long to figure out that as they didn't need to touch in with their kiddie photo oystercards anymore they could do what the hell they wanted without fear of having their free travel taken away.
Fortunately for one little s**t he was so excited at the prospect he'd just destroyed half of the bus and hung out the emergency door at the back a few times he left his oyster photocard on the seat in front of me - much to the bemusement of the stressed driver when I handed it to him.
Black helicopters, cos that's probably what TFL will use when they abseil down the council flats where he lives and crash through the window to read him the riot act and take away his free travel.
Mifare will be laughing
as TFL put in an order for another million cards...
Re. anon card and DPA
I had a most enjoyable experience with customer service (CS) re. unauthorised charges on an Oyster card (if you use pay-as-you-go, CHECK THE CHARGES FREQUENTLY as the system gets it wrong *often* - unsurprisingly never in your favour).
Conversation (phone handed to me by guy at ticket office):
Me: "Hi, guy at ticket office tells me you alone can correct charges, here is the card number"
CS: "Umm, yes. That card is unregistered. We need your name and address.
Me: "Why? What part of 'unregistered' doesn't work?"
CS: "We need to make sure we pay back the right person. You could have just found the card."
Me (after finishing laughing): "And by which process would you make sure that I didn't find it when I give you my details now?"
CS: "Umm. Umm, it's part of our process"
Me: "So the price of a refund has now been raised to my privacy?"
CS: "Sorry, we can't refund to an unknown card."
Me: "So, we now have set the price for privacy at London Underground. Well done".
Let me repeat what I said at the top: the Oyster card pre-pay system appears to err substantially in LUL's favour, at least in the case of two separate cards I've tried. Extrapolating that to the volume of cards out there it appears this is a nice way for LUL to earn some extra cash by making it difficult to recover erroneous charges.
This may also explain why the refund process is (a) now extremely well hidden - try finding a brochure about Customer Refund, or even more than a one liner in, say, 1 out of 30 brochures - and (b) it is not automated like it can be.
I would be interested in knowing just how often they have to correct charges. The true number could be rather shocking.. Anyone any idea?
PS: for the record, I still have those 2 cards, and I think that includes the journey printouts...
we could always go back over 20 odd years ...
to ticket inspectors on the barrier , before LUL's "UTS-Underground Ticketting system" and automatic barriers everywhere, and that would waste lots of time for EVERYONE, EVERYDAY!
Also we could have people queuing up to pay cash to the Bus driver, scraping around for the correct change, whilst minutes of your life ebb away, never to be recovered.
(sarcasm alert)Oh boy do I miss wasting vast chunks of my life in such queues....
thank god for automatic barriers and payment systems, even if they do cock the system up once every so often, whilst trying to block Ken's Super User account ..... or where they trying to put a new account on for Boris ?
and if it worked perfectly , well we wouldn't have something to moan about.
@Anonymous coward
Never attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by incompetence. And in the immediate aftermath of a vast cock-up, it's not even incompetence, just a lot of staff who haven't had time to be fully instructed in the finer points of the system and just know to hand over a form and get it filled in.
I'd suggest complaining via the tfl.gov.uk web site (which should get a response apologising for ill-trained staff). then go back to the station next week, armed with this reply.
Incidentally as explained in TfL's own brochure when I last read it (~2 years ago), an unregistered PAYG card is just like cash. It's fully transferrable, and if lost, whoever finds it can keep it.
I used the Overground at 11am, no working card readers (so my card ain't buggered), being a good citizen I bought a paper ticket even though it was 50p extra(as instructed by staff "Or you'll get fined mate"), although I did grumble about it.
When I got to my destination I needed a bus which was of course free since it had not been back to the depot (why the different treatment between bus and rail?) which meant I was up by 40p.
No hassle!
workaround for tracking
Just buy a new unregistered PAYG oyster card before your journey with the value of just one journey on it and hand it in for a refund of the deposit at the end. Don't forget to tell them you're sick of them invading your privacy, profiting from the interest on your money, stealing money by errors in their favour, etc.
Alternatively get out of the s**t hole that is London (and the rest of the UK) and pay tax elsewhere.
What's an Oyster Card?
Cloned cards should be fairly easy to spot - If go in at station A, then in at station B, then out at station C and out and station D... I am 2 cards.
Further, if the system says I recently entered the network at station A, and I swipe in at B, it is fairly simple to have an alarm go off so that a guard may harass me.
Similar systems are already used by banks, because (at least the strips) on thier cards are easily easily clonable.
Black helicopters, because I'm sure as hell not traveling by tube.
<no title>
Oh no, that's awful. Loads of passengers encouraging TfL to monitor where they go, get inconvenienced for their trouble. I hope they put in a strong complaint.
@Andy Livingstone
It's a contactless electronic stored-value payment card for the London transport system (underground, bus, Croydon Tram), so-called because it generates the pearls that go to senior LT staff to keep them in the luxury to which they have become accustomed...*
* Please note that a key part of this explanation could be regarded as slightly controversial and/or "economical with the truth"... :-)
Rotten oysters
Why isn't there an independent web site for publishing complaints about this system?
After the breach of privacy, the thing that most irks me about is is the 3 quid fine for not touching out.
The system is inherently misconceived, because the same action is used for both entry and exit, and there is no way of checking or correcting the status. The equipment is also faulty.
I have re-touched my card on exit on the instructions of a ticket collector, only to discover later that I've been charged an extra 4 quid for a journey that I never made. And this was after asking a booking clerk to check it.
I have had the system check me in, without opening the gates. It probably happens the other way round too, but not to me so far.
The part of the system that I use most - the DLR - has no gates, but readers that are invisible in either light rain or moderate sunshine. The ones on bendy buses are also illegible in the summer. There is no way of knowing whether you're checked in/out or not.
All of this is plainly designed to allow them to collect as many fines as possible.
One of these days it is inevitable that I will be stopped by an officious ticket collector after a reader has failed to check me in. It would be useful to have some legal advice from OUT-LAW about what to do in this situation.
Finally, linking this weekend's Oyster failure to the story about a third of the working population needing CRB checks, no doubt the police will come up with a story of a stabbing or rape over the weekend where they could have caught the perpetrator if only they had had complete Oyster records.
@Re. anon card and DPA
You could have just made up a name and address. They're not the police, you're not necessarily required to be truthful.
@Karl H
Just like it is up here. There's a blg conflab (ie public ignoring) session due soon to see if we would like more public transport and a congestion charge in 2013. Problem is we could do with it now, but not the congestion charge as it would clog up M60land even more than it is already.
There is a card we can use now but it's £20 quid a week (it ISN'T universal, like your lobster card; instead we have about 20 different bus companies), something us poor northerners can't afford. I like joined up thinking, me.
Outlook not so good cos it's grim up north.
Is this oyster thing as horrific as I think it is?
As some kind of northern monkey, can I clear up a few things about this horrible system:
If you don't want to use an oyster card, can you still use the London buses etc.? i.e. Can a customer pay with cash there and then at the station/bus, or is it credit cards all the way?
Have I interpreted a comment above correctly, that cash payers have to cough up 50p more per journey than card holders?
You have to sign both in and out of stations/buses etc.? If not, they assume you rode the transport for the longest possible journey, and charge you accordingly? Or do they just fine you a flat 3UKP? Is this fine cheaper than the most expensive journeys available?
If I'm even close about the above, then wow, I'm glad I don't live in London! And of course there's the Stasi-esque tracking. But thinking about it, the last time I used the underground with stiff paper tickets from a machine, you had to pass that ticket through the entry and exit barriers..... I guess when I bought the ticket there was a camera in the ticket machine, and the magstripe on the back had a unique ID.... they've been tracking people for years, havent they!?!
cash fares actually double
Cash bus fares are actually double what they are on Oyster. Yes you can pay cash, but you'd be stupid to do so.
No feral children on my free buses on Saturday, a few bewildered tourists and a lot of happy south Londoners.
Best to lie only for neccessity
>You could have just made up a name and address. They're not the police, you're not necessarily required to be truthful.
But, then we might decide that you are probably a terrorist and therefore an undesirable person. Nasty things can happen to such people, door mysteriously broken down whilst at work, other cards stop working, you notice your blender is missing......
You are discribing an idealized version of reality.
First off DO attribute things to malace that could be excused as incompetance. How much of a fool would you be if you believed their silly excuses?
second a poster before you has shown an unregistered card is not the same as cash when you want them to give you a refund.
finally, you think complaining will illicit a helpful response. Where have you been for the last 7 years?
What's an Oyster Card?
@ Andy Livingstone
What's an Oyster Card?
An Oyster Card is a handy means for you to give away private and personal information to the halfwits "in charge" of Londons Public Transport where it can be used to send you unsolicited propaganda/marketing material and to track your every movement on the Underground system.
It was designed by halfwits, is supervised by halfwits and was implemented by a Mayor with an approach to public-opinion/consultation akin to Adolf Hitler's approach to World Peace. It is also an excellent excuse to charge those people who use paper tickets and travel from mainline rail stations a higher fee on account of the fact that certain rail-operating companies refuse to accept it. It also gives Barclays Bank a marvelous excuse to clutter up our underground stations with their little cardboard sales kiosks where they'll try to flog you their combined Oyster/Credit Card.
I've started driving to work, sod global-warming!
Waht about older cards?
Does this mean that an Oyster Card that I bought a while ago on my last London trip won't work the next time I visit? Or is it deleted and whatever's left on it (mis)appropriated by London Transport?
(Paris because I feel I'm asking a bit of a daft question)
@Andy Livingstone
What's an Oyster Card? Jeremy Clarkson summed it up best on an episode of Top Gear
"It's useful, if you have no understanding of *money*"
@ Northern Wonderer
As another non-Londoner, I envy them the Oyster card. In principle. Yes, they get a discount on fares (on paper), which seems fair given the reduction in manpower required (theoretically) to service the payment method, and it's supposed to be possible to get the same deal with a pre-pay anonymous card as it is with one associated with an identity, so you shouldn't, in principle, *have* to hand over any details...
I'd be inclined to have a selection of anonymous cards and use a different one each day, or overy few days, or when I'm doing different things...
The devil is, as ever, in the implementation... :(
@Karl H
If you go back 20 years the buses will have conductors, no waiting for the passenger to find change. It's the current system with three payments methods in use and no conductors that keeps the bus in the stop while the passenger, sorry, customer, explains that (a) the ticket machine is broken, (b) they don't have any thing smaller, or (c) this is a Cheshire county OAP bus pass and is good for use in London since April.
BTW, as a side note, can someone explain why my "Freedom Pass" (I know, parasite ) cannot have a PAYG included for those "out of hours" journeys?
Its calling a driving license
in my experience most people carry their driving licenses around with them thats proof of address. If you dont have one get one they prove invaluable at proving who you are even just as provisional ..
unbelievably convoluted process for getting a replacement card...

happy Oyster user on the day
To put a positive spin on this story, I travelled London quite happily on the buses for free all day Saturday :) my first journey was at about 08:15 and my last near enough Midnight. Okay, so it only saved me £3.60, but it's a feel good factor that counts here :)
I didn't have any of the problems suffered by many with extra fines or wiped cards as the bus drivers simply waved people onto the bus :) I actually didn't hear what the problem was until gone 6pm on Saturday.
Toasted Oysters
for 10p ...
1 - MiFare card gets cracked
2 - Crack is applied to Oyster
3 - TfL releases a statement that all is tikka dee boo, nothing to worry, the system is far more resilient and should pickup the home made cards,
4 - TfL decides it'd be better to change the crypto-keys on the card coz the Dutch unlawful usage cannot be pinpointed and the above is just PR
5 - TfL sends the order (to the gates) to change the keys
6 - Oysters are toasted
7 - Smell of toasted oysters fills the tube's corridors
8 - TfL tells the gates to stop frying bivalves & let bipeds thru.
9 - TfL rolls back the system
10 - TfL rolls out a bunch of fresh mussel-replacements.
-> Dutch geeks can carry on using their forged card ... please send the toasted cards to
Prof.dr. B.P.F. Jacobs
Radboud University Nijmegen
Heyendaalseweg 135
6525 AJ Nijmegen
The Netherlands
so he can help TfL investigating what went wrong.
What worries me a bit is we know the MiFare is compromised, it takes 12 secs to get the keys to read & write the card ... even if TfL were successful in applying a patch/adding some data/changing the keys it would take 12 other seconds to see what changed. Can even set up a website to publish the latest free-ride Oyster "firmware" update.
borked upgrade ?
You figure they were upgrading the system to protect against the non-existant security problems illustrated in this earlier reg story?
For you whining people
I live in Bath, a place of modest affluence, but also has its rough bits like any city. Here we use cash - and it is bloody expensive to do so!
In London you can traverse the whole of zone 1 for a £1.50 single - that's less than a £1.70 / 7 minute bus ride in Bath. You can catch a bus for a quid or 90p or something. Our minimum fares are £1.10 for going a single stop.
In London, thanks to the massive savings on cash handling, paper tickets, automated reporting, no queueing holding up services, you get to pay far less than most parts of the country - and the fares in any one day are capped at the equivalent all-day travelcard price. You really do have it good. So here I live in Bath, and I carry an Oyster Card which is utterly useless to me 98% of the time, because you have such cheap public transport in London compared with here it is an absolute bargain every time I visit London.

Just one of the eight corporations which made major commitments for the Medical Center Renewal were in existence when the last hospital was christened in 1959, Hewlett-Packard.
This region continues to renew and reinvent itself in nearly all good ways.
It has been a gift to have witnessed it all.

Edgar, what a great source you sound like you would be for some accurate historical perspective and insight and even recollections.
And you have none of the uninformed angst and hidden anger so many cranks have who comment. A breath of fresh air, my man. I am a former Palo Altan currently writing in London. But I may return.

Hi bizmanualz,
The toggle container isn't able to support putting another toggle inside of itself.
Do u by any chance know any plugin that could help me , tried to search a lot but did not find any
Hi bizmanualz,
Personally, I don't know of any. You can try asking the WordPress community though since I'm not totally up-to-date on all the available plugins. Keep in mind though that there's no guarantee a plugin will work with the theme particularly when it comes to styling and possibly function.
The topic 'Issue with toggle shortcode' is closed to new replies.

JP Woman Gets Reprieve After Battling Cancer With the Help of Diet Delivery Service
Bistro MD Diet plan helps Gretchen Breese to lose 15 pounds
After overcoming a type of Stage III ovarian cancer, Gretchen Breese discovered that she had lost a lot of energy.
During the aggressive chemotherapy treatment, the 58-year old lost a whopping 28 pounds to reach the 120 pound mark before starting to gain weight again; leaving her with the struggle to find a balance.
When she returned to work after the harsh cancer treatment, Gretchen felt so exhausted that she had a hard time opening a can of soup when she got back home at night – according to her.
The experience forced her to start looking for a way to maintain a healthy weight in a safe and convenient way.
Instead of opting for a local weight loss remedy, Breese searched very hard for a pre-made healthy food that would make it easier for her to lose weight. Other options would only have contributed to her weight gain soon after the chemo, so she had to expand her search.
As Breese soon found out, bistroMD was the answer to all her weight problems. After using the product for only a short period of time, she managed to lose 15 pounds. The nutrition and portion control provided in the program enabled her to strike a form of balance.
BistroMD had great recommendations and the nutritionist at the cancer center where Breese was being treated looked at the proposed menu and gave the program a thumbs up. Breese's energy levels spiked only two days after embarking on the bistro MD diet plan.
Breese has undergone several other extra treatments, but having readily-available healthy meals has made life much easier and convenient for her; thanks to the bistroMD service.

How To Improve Your Wellness Using Bodyblade
I wonder why it has taken me long to write a bodyblade review yet I started to become the manifestation of a Krispy Kreme donut long time ago. From the bodyblade review website, bodyblade was established to address the dynamic stabilizers of the spine, offer a stable platform for rehabilitation, fitness enhancement, sport performance training, as well as, personal training regimen. Its existence has resulted in improved wellness, function and muscle definition. The Bodyblade review is necessary because the exercises taken in Bodyblade use the movements made by athletes in competitions, and it helps train your body execute controlled faster moves. Bodyblade also enhances muscle tone where muscles are made to resist its movements, and this helps improvement of the muscle tone in a short time.
Why would you call it a bodyblade scam when it only costs $159.00 USD (+ shipping) for the Pro Kit only with all these benefits? Some people blame it for false advertising when they claim that the models in the commercials have nothing to do with the device. In this bodyblade review, it is important to understand the meaning of improved wellness in this context. It is difficult to gauge improved wellness of a person, and hence, any device that is said to be able to improve the well-being of a person becomes questionable. That is why am referring to this as a bodyblade scam. It does not mean bodyblade has no benefits. Bodyblade trains you to remove an annoying traffic sign through its back-and-forth motion. It also helps uproot a tree in your yard easily.
Why use bodyblade?
Its system is portable and lightweight. This means you can lift it around and easily shift it from one place to another.
Its disadvantages
It is expensive. You will need to dig deeper in your pockets in order to buy it.
It might take a large space in your basement.

Does BodyBlade Scam Its Users?
Does BodyBlade Scam Its Users?
Currently, thousands of people use the BodyBlade exercise system. Plenty of people consider purchasing the system each day, too. It ranges in price from $80.00 to $160.00 on average. With that in mind, other exercise systems are more affordable for consumers. Does this system produce results for exercisers, or should it be renamed to the BodyBlade Scam?
The BodyBlade provides resistance during exercises because it's bendable in various ways. For instance, each blade bends outward during a swing, so the user needs to exert more force to bring it back to their body. Such resistance can range from a few pounds to over 20 pounds. In theory, these "blades" should strengthen the body when used properly.
Unfortunately, most people won't see noticeable results no matter how hard they try. BodyBlade scam is a reality for most users, especially those in decent physical condition. The blades don't provide enough resistance to actually make a different. In fact, a person could just swing their arms around and get a similar workout.
However, BodyBlade can produce results for individuals going through physical therapy. Someone with a weakened muscular system can benefit from BodyBlade because it does provide some resistance during training. Enough resistance is created to help a person rehab muscles after an injury or surgery. Otherwise, the BodyBlade scam will do nothing for the average person.
Thousands of consumers will continue to purchase the BodyBlade scam. Sadly, these types of exercise systems catch on because they seem easy to participants. The reality is that improved strength, endurance, and muscle comes only from hard work. Those looking for results should stick to a proper diet and strenuous exercise for that reason.

The Pros And Cons Of A Diet Cleanse
The Pros And Cons Of A Diet Cleanse
Detoxes aren't essential, but when considering trying one, think about benefits and drawbacks before you decide to go for it.
A vital benefit of a diet cleanse is that it will help you stop a chaotic eating pattern through presenting order, simplicity, and repetition. Furthermore, you consume only clean, whole foods that actually reboot your taste buds. So, after a few days on a diet cleanse, many observe that their urges for sweets or salty foods disappear, resulting in weight loss
The greatest disadvantage is that a diet cleanse is usually extreme and difficult to endure, not to mention that they may be quite pricey. Also, most of the weight loss is water, saved glycogen (carbohydrates), and waste, all of which may quickly be regained soon after the diet cleanse is completed. Furthermore, many people realize that, even short-term food restriction can result in intense cravings that could lead to overeating.
Pay attention to your own instincts. If you don't think a diet cleanse fits your needs, or if you've attempted one before with unfavorable results, then it may not be for you. Be sure that it's safe and healthy before committing to it, as well, especially if you suffer from certain health conditions. Definitely avoid a diet cleanse if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.
Also, it's important to consider the way your body will react to the detox, and how it may affect your professional or social obligations. Ensure you listen to what your body is saying because
your health and well-being rely on it.

What You Should Know About Performing A Diet Cleanse With Tacos
Performing A Diet Cleanse With Tacos
Dieters have no shortage of options when it comes to crash diets, irrational weight loss programs and impractical cleansing techniques. In spite of this excess, however, a new idea has been brought to the forefront of consumer attention and this is the notion that it is possible to cleanse the body while subsisting on tacos alone. This is a month long diet cleanse that was created by a self-professed, food-loving group of vegans. While they do not mandate that the diet be performed without any meat or dairy, their success has been the result of wholly animal-free eating.
How The Program Works And Why This Diet Cleanse Is Wrong
Like any diet cleanse that is destined to come and go, this program requires dieters to eliminate a lot of necessary food products from their lives. The program eliminates many whole grains such as oats. Nuts, lean fish and meat, low-fat dairy products and even fresh fruits have been taken off the menu. Instead, people are required to dine on tacos for three meals each day. While this dramatic alteration of a person's daily intake is guaranteed to give the body a chance to process more toxins and drop pounds, it can also have a very negative toll on human health, especially given its considerable duration.
After several weeks of dramatically cutting calories and eliminating entire food groups, most people are likely to see a dramatic slow down in their metabolisms. This is the body entering into starvation mode and refusing to burn fat at a rapid rate. Moreover, most people are likely to grow tired of eating tacos after just several days or weeks. The novelty of even a favorite food is destined to wear thin when it is all that is ever allowed to grace the dinner plate. Ultimately, this is no more than the famed cookie diet wrapped in a crunchy corn shell.

November 22, 2014
HOUSTON (AP) - Belongings of the late Houston Chronicle society columnist Maxine Mesinger are set to go up for auction later this month.
Mesinger, who died in 2001, was a native Houstonian who wrote her society column for 45 years, quitting only two weeks before she died of complications from multiple sclerosis.
The Houston Chronicle reports her collections of art, antiques, mementos and photos of Hollywood stars will go up for auction Oct. 26 at Houston's Morton Auctioneers and Appraisers.
Her children, Jay and Julianne Mesinger, decided to auction the items following the death of their father in June.
Jay Mesinger, who has childhood memories of visiting stars including Frank Sinatra, Tommy Tune and Liza Minnelli, says it wasn't uncommon "to wake up in the middle of the night to rousing laughter."

Q: Dad, junior year in college starts in a couple of weeks. How is it different than the first two?
A: Well, first of all, the first two were actually four for me, but who's counting? There are two things to consider, however. First, you know the system now, so it should be less mysterious if not easier. That makes it easier to skip class. Don't. The second thing is you'll be taking classes in your major that are more interesting, relevant and real world. While that won't make the workload any lighter, it does make it more fun.

Duke Energy Corp. (DUK:US) reached an "agreement in principle" with the staff of the North Carolina Utilities Commission on terms for approval of its $16.7 billion takeover of Progress Energy Inc. (PGN:US), a staff attorney said.
The companies are reviewing a written version of the agreement, Gisele Rankin, senior staff attorney for the North Carolina commission, said today in a telephone interview.
Duke and Progress aim to close the transaction by July 1, although state and federal approvals are still needed. The agreement in principle covers $650 million in customer savings the companies have promised by coordinating power plant operations and will assure utility customers won't pay the costs to comply with federal conditions, Rankin said.
Progress Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Bill Johnson, to become Duke's CEO once the deal closes, told investors on a conference call that a North Carolina settlement would come "pretty soon."
The agreement with staff is subject to approvals by the North Carolina Utilities Commission and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Rankin said.
"It is totally contingent on FERC approving everything as filed without material change or condition," Rankin said. "If FERC changes a lot of stuff, it sort of blows it out of the water."
Progress, based in Raleigh, North Carolina, rose 1.2 percent to $54.17 at 2:27 p.m. in New York. Duke, based in Charlotte, North Carolina, rose 0.14 percent to $21.51.

23 protesters arrested after barricading themselves in clinic
SUN-TIMES MEDIA WIRE April 13, 2012 2:13AM
Twenty three protesters were arrested at the Woodlawn Adult Health Clinic, 6337 S. Woodlawn early today. Patients and advocates occupying the Woodlawn Mental Health Clinic, protested outside the occupied clinic that faces city foreclosure, Friday, April 13, 2012 . | John H. White~Sun-Times.

About two dozen people barricaded themselves inside a South Side mental health clinic Thursday, protesting Mayor Rahm Emanuel's plans to consolidate 12 city clinics into six.
The demonstrators, including about 50 people outside the clinic at 63rd Street and South Woodlawn Avenue, said they planned to stay on site until Emanuel agrees to keep all of the public clinics open.
One of the protest organizers, Matt Ginsburg, said he and about 20 others had been arrested for trespassing about 1 a.m. Friday.
He said the protesters put up barricades in front of the doors made of steel gates, piping and quick-dry cement, but that police used chainsaws to cut through them early Friday, arresting those inside.
Police News Affairs Officer Hector Alfaro said 23 people were taken into custody early Friday. Eleven were released without charges, he said, and charges were pending against the remaining 12 as of about 4 a.m..

NPLD 2013 Highlights
On September 28, 2013, our nation celebrated the 20th Anniversary of National Public Lands Day in various ways--hikes, free entrance days, trail maintenance parties, campouts, shoreline cleanups and more. More than 175,000 volunteers and park visitors celebrated our public lands at 2,237 sites in every state, the District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Thank you to everyone who volunteered, led events and promoted NPLD to their audiences. We enjoyed celebrating our birthday with each of you!
A snapshot of National Public Lands Day 2013:
- Volunteers contributed an estimated $18 million in improvements to federal, state and local public lands. Highlights of their work include:
- NPLD received a Presidential Proclamation for the fifth year in a row. Additionally, 36 governors and 75 mayors and counties proclaimed September 28 as National Public Lands Day. Read or download the NPLD 2013 proclamations.
- Thirty-six state park systems hosted at least one site for NPLD 2013. A total of 440 state park sites participated in NPLD. A record 19 state park systems signed memos of mutual support officially recognizing NPLD on September 28. Virginia State Parks continued to recognize NPLD with all of their units participating and Florida State Parks continued to host high numbers of NPLD events throughout the state. Washington State Parks celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2013 and designated NPLD as a fee-free date at sites throughout the state.

At the Ask the Prime Minister forum, PM Lee Hsien Loong revealed plans to expand the Singapore Zoo, which could include moving the Jurong Bird Park to Mandai.
SINGAPORE: By 2020, Singaporeans and tourists can look forward to a more spectacular Singapore Zoo in Mandai. These plans were shared by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong during the Ask The Prime Minister 'live' forum broadcast on Channel NewsAsia and Channel 5 on Thursday (Sep 4).
Mr Lee said the authorities are planning to expand the area where the zoo is, and this could include relocating the Bird Park in Jurong to Mandai. Mr Lee stressed that the development plans will focus on enhancing and not infringing the nature reserve.
"You want to have an attraction which is like Gardens by the Bay. So it's not a place where you just go to see some animals, but you also have public areas where you can wander around, you can take wedding pictures and you can enjoy the waterfront and watch the sunset on Upper Seletar Reservoir," he said. "I think it can be a very beautiful and nice place."

The Zen teaching is nothing but the teaching of how to take that one step, how to jump into nothingness. That nothingness is what nirvana is, that nothingness is what God is. That chaos is not only chaos - that is only one side of the board. From the other side that chaos is immense creativity. It is only out of chaos that stars are born. It is only out of chaos that creation happens. Chaos is one aspect of the same energy. Chaos is potential creativity. Nothingness is the other side of allness.
Zen is a single seer the journey of one single step. You can call it the last step or you can call it the first step, it doesn't matter. It: is the first and it is the last - the alpha and the omega. The whole teaching of Zen consists of only one thing: how to take a jump into nothingness; how to come to the very end of your mind - which is the end of the world; how to stand there on the cliff facing the abyss and not get frightened; how to gather courage and take the last jump. It is death. It is committing suicide. But only out of suicide is there spiritual growth and only out of being crucified is there resurrection.
If you understand well, then the symbol, the Christian symbol, of the cross can have immense meaning. Jesus is on the cross - and that is the cliff. In the last moment he also becomes afraid like this man. At the last moment he looks at the sky and says, "What are you doing to me? Have you forsaken me?" A human trembling, a great anguish, facing death, facing annihilation.
But he gathers courage. He understands what he is going to do. He was trying to escape into the world, he was trying to escape into the mind. His mind started functioning - "What are you doing to me?" It is a complaint against God. "Have you forsaken me?" It seems that something is going against the expectations of Jesus. He understood it. He was a man of tremendous intelligence. He looked into it. He must have laughed at his own stupidity. What has he said to God?
And in a single moment the transformation.. He relaxed and he said, "Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done." He relaxed. This is the step. He died and was born anew - a new consciousness, a new being.
When you die in the mind you are born into consciousness. When you die in the body you are born into the universal body. When you die as the ego you are born as a God, as the God. When you die in your small territory, you simply become spread all over existence - you become existence itself
Now this step has to be understood and I would like to repeat : the end of the mind is the end of the world - because Zen says the mind is the world. Ordinarily we cultivate eke mind, we strengthen the mind, we make it more and more capable, skillful, efficient. That's what we go on doing in the schools, colleges and the universities. That's what we mean by education, by learning.
Zen is a kind of uneducation. Zen is a kind of unlearning. It teaches you how to drop that which you have learned, how to become unskillful again, how to become a child again, how to start existing without mind again, how to be here without any mind.

How to create a friendlier veterinary visit
It seems we're all pressed for time these days—especially in the exam room—but it pays to take time to put both pets and owners at ease.
Examining pets that are anxious or fearful can give inaccurate medical results (pain hidden, diagnostic results skewed) and could result in a bite. Those are all reasons enough to "make friends first," but there's an even bigger reason: Fear and anxiety cause permanent damage to the pet's brain. Here are some tips to make visits fear-free:
1. If the carrier isn't out all the time, then get it out a couple of weeks before the scheduled visit and place treats and toys inside.2. Infuse the carrier bedding with pheromones.
3. Don't feed the pet after 6 p.m. the night before so they respond better to food rewards at the hospital.
4. Don't baby-talk the pet, don't apologize for taking them and remain upbeat.
Remember: A more relaxed pet means a more relaxed client, and that means the client will be more receptive to your best advice on the care a pet needs.
