Avoid this mistakes when approaching a girl
Friday, June 14, 2013 | Posted by Rumishael Ulomi | |
So if you want to win a few battles of your own, and take home a few trophies instead of Purple Hearts, avoid making these common mistakes when approaching a woman.
Common Approach Mistake #1: Not understanding why she's there
One of Sun Tzu's most famous quotes in his classic book of military strategy, "The Art of War," is: "If you know your enemy and you know yourself, you shall not fear the outcome of 100 battles." So quick question to see how well you know her and know yourself: Why do most guys go out to bars with their buddies? Right, to look for women and try to hook up. Now, why do most women go out to bars with their girlfriends? Not to meet guys and hook up, but first and foremost, to have a good time.
See the problem? She's looking for fun and excitement, and you're interrupting that with your pick up attempt that she sees as an invasion of her good time. And when choosing between fun with her friends and some guy's lame attempt at a pick up, she'll choose fun. So instead of trying to hit on her, let her know immediately that you not only want in on the fun, but you're there to add to her good time.
Common Approach Mistake #2: Falling victim to The Panhandler Syndrome
Ever have a panhandler ask you for spare change? If that happens once in a while, most of us are willing to dig into our pockets and provide the downtrodden with some coins to get them something to eat. But if that were to happen five, 10, 15 or even 20 times a day? Every day? By the time that fifth or sixth guy walked up, he would barely get out, "Pardon me, sir, but could you..." before you gave him an abrupt "I don't have any friggin' change!" and walked away.
It's the same with women. You think you're the first guy to hit on her today? According to one study, an attractive woman can be subjected to dozens of pick up attempts, come ons, sexual innuendo and outright ogling every single day. So by the time you see her in the bar that night, and you hit her with your common, boring or obvious pick up line, she sees you as just another panhandler that day, begging for a date.
Instead, be unique. Be interesting. Get her to want to talk to you, and you won't be seen as a guy with a sign that reads, "Will buy you drinks for conversation." And that brings us to number 3....
Common Approach Mistake #3: Buying her a drink
Ever hear a "pick up artist" (or even your buddy) say that you should never buy a woman a drink? It's one of those popular I-know-what-to-do-to-get-a-woman pieces of advice guys throw around to sound like they have game.
The truth is, they're right. You should never buy a woman a drink. And in my book I go into detail about the pitfalls of paying for her Cosmotinis. But here's the condensed version:
1 – Saying "Can I buy you a drink?" or sending one over, then nodding and smiling, isn't clever, unique, exciting, entertaining, or anything else that a woman looks for. She's heard it before, and if you approach the same way as every other boring, uninteresting guy she has shot down, you're gonna get shot down too. Right after she finishes her drink.
2 – The minute you buy her a drink, you're no longer that interesting guy she wanted to meet and talk to; you instantly become "Just another guy trying to get into my pants." And that's not a good category to be in.
3 – This is the big one. This is the one women have told me is the reason that actually makes them hate when a guy sends over a drink: because now they feel obligated to talk to you. You expect a conversation because you have bought their time. And I don't have to tell you that when a woman feels she has to do something, as opposed towanting to do something, you're in for a rough time.
Bottom line, there are at least those three reasons not to buy a woman a drink, and not too many on the positive side. Hedge your bets. Use a different approach.
Common Approach Mistake #4: Approaching her like a dude
Body language is something not a lot of us pay attention to, especially our own. Sure, we know what it means when someone has their arms crossed in front of them or when she absentmindedly plays with her hair, but did you know that just the way you walk up to a woman can trigger her defenses and put her off?
As guys, we're used to presenting ourselves as Alpha males. When we meet another guy, we walk up, shoulders squared, chest out, and look him in the eye. The problem is, that's also the way many of us walk up to a woman. And she sees it as a sign of aggression. Especially if you're 6'2" and used to play O-line in college, and she's barely 5 feet tall in her peep-toe pumps.
Instead, try walking up slower, and approach her from an angle, not straight on. Some guys even say they prefer to walk just past her, then turn their head and approach her from over their shoulder, turning towards her once a conversation has started, and she's more comfortable.
Common Approach Mistake #5: Failing her Shit Tests
All women will Shit Test you. That's when she's intentionally rude or bitchy just to see how you react. To see if you'll roll over and show your belly like a moodle (that's a man-poodle), or if you'll do whatever it takes to prove you're a Nice Guy. And we all know Nice Guys go home alone.
Some Shit Tests will come fast and hard: "I don't talk to strangers, and you're pretty strange..." and some will be more subtle: "Um, where'd you get that shirt?" But the object is always the same -- to see if you're man enough, quick enough, funny enough or have enough back bone, to warrant her spending any more time talking to you.
Ever wonder why Bad Boys always get the girl? Part of the reason is they don't fail Shit Tests. Because they don't really care what she thinks of the shirt they're wearing. And they're not afraid to tell her. If she's not okay with that, then screw her, they'll talk to someone else.
And what Nice Guys don't get is, that's the answer she wants. So instead of saying, "Yeah, I guess this shirt is kinda lame..." come back with something more like (in a mock horrified tone), "Are you serious?! This shirt is so in right now. Did you not get the latest issue of Retro Geek Chic Monthly? Wow, I can't talk to you anymore if you're not up on your fashion..." and you can go on from there, teasing her, adding humor, asking other people in the bar for their opinion... anything but rolling over and agreeing with her.
Sidestep these 5 landmines when you approach, and I guarantee your missions will be more successful. And in these battles, the victor truly gets the spoils.

"Achoo" - "God Bless you"
Ever wonder why we pray for God's blessing after someone sneezes? It comes from an ancient belief that a person's breath was the same as their soul. When God made Adam, He breathed life into him. Thus, a myth grew up around this belief that a sneeze was thought to rapidly send the life of a person out of them.
When this life leaves, a vacuum is left which could be filled by evil spirits.
Then, during the reign of Pope St. Gregory the Great, there was a plague in the area. Thus, Gregory instituted the phrase "God bless you" as a way to ask for divine protection if one were to become sick or die.
Then there is Yawning. Why do you cover your mouth when you yawn?
Some modern moms say it is because it is rude to yawn in front of others. While our culture may reflect this as the modern reason, it has a much more ancient origin.
Some French and English taught that yawning was another opportunity for the devil to enter, thus you covered your mouth to bar his entrance. In Ireland, they would make the sign of the cross over their mouths while yawning. Still today, some Muslims believe this can happen when one yawns.
Now you know that some of our common practices come from myths and legends.

This is a great highlighter it is a cool toned pink champagne color. The quality of the product is on point. This highlighter has a light scent but nothing overwhelming and not really that noticeable once you have the product on your skin. The packaging is odd but it works, this highlighter comes in a nail polish style package with a brush. I apply the product to the back of my hand and work it into whatever area of skin I feel like highlighting.
I use this product a few different ways
-I mix it with my tinted moisturizer
-use it alone under my eyebrows, Cupid's bow, as a cheek highlighter
-use it mixed with argan oil on my arms, neck and upper chest area for that extra silky sexy look
-sometimes I mix it with my lotion and place it on my legs
A little bit of product goes a long way so you don't have to use that much of the product to achieve a beautiful highlight glow.

I wanted to like this stuff and when I first put it on, I loved the effect. Very subtle shimmer and beautiful youthful-making effect. But before you decide to buy it, know this: it has a film-forming ingredient- sorry, couldn't tell you what one- that makes it unsuitable for use over or under certain foundations- what you end up with is balling-up of the product and its just nasty, nasty, gross. Almost like little balls of dirty glue dotting your face.
Honestly, I was really disappointed with this product! No matter how little I use, it never looks natural. I end up with dried shimmery streaks on my face that won't blend into my foundation. It's really expensive and in my opinion looks very fake.I actually like Wet n' Wild's powder highlighter much better! It's a fine powder so it's less distracting then BeneFit's sparkly goo... it gives my face a nice natural glow and stays on well when I use a fixing spray

One of my favorite highlighters!!
dot a bit on the bridge of my nose to make my bridge look a bit straighter and higher. Also I dot a bit on my Cupid's bow to make my lips look a bit more plump

Yes!! High beam you never fail me.
This is an icy pink highlighter that compliments light skin tones the most, it doesn't look sparkly or greasy in the slightest just gorgeous dew. This does bring that certain "je ne sais quoi" to your face, looks like you're on an old Hollywood film set the way the light diffuses off your face with this complexion enhancer!
Do not hesitate to buy!
I love this highlighter! Worth every penny - you get so much product cause a little goes a long way with this one! It comes in a nail polish like bottle similar to their lip and cheek tints. I'm gonna get sun beam next! :)
Omg! I love this highlighter. I dot a bit on the bridge of my nose to make my bridge look a bit straighter and higher. Also I dot a bit on my Cupid's bow to make my lips look a bit more pouty.
This product is one of my staples. I use it every day. That being said, I don't own a large bottle because I see no need. I use it as an accent on my cheek bones, brow bones, bridge of nose and cupids bow. So far, that tiny little bottle has lasted a very long time (6 months and still going!)
I love this highlighter, however it is quite expensive but I still would repurchase:)
Love this product, use it just under my brows great effect

Chinese noodles with sesame-pepper dressing
Updated On: Jan 17 2014 06:32:08 AM EST
This spicy noodle side dish is the perfect accompaniment to Teriyaki Chicken, and it is equally intriguing served warm, chilled, or at room temperature. If you'd like, add vegetables, such as shredded carrots, diced cucumber, or diced red bell pepper.
4 ounces Chinese wheat-flour noodles
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons white rice vinegar
1 tablespoon dark (Asian) sesame oil
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, or to taste
Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-high, add the noodles, and cook for about 3 minutes, or according to package instructions, until tender.
Meanwhile, whisk together the Sesame-Pepper dressing ingredients in a small bowl.
When the noodles are done, drain well; return to the pan. Whisk the dressing, add it to the noodles, and toss. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
Advance preparation
This dressing will keep for 1 week in a tightly closed container in the refrigerator. The Chinese Wheat Noodles with Sesame-Pepper Dressing can be refrigerated for 2 days.

A little over a week ago, we were in Florida getting ready to run the Naples Half Marathon. It was about 65 degrees, 100% humidity, and sunny. At home in Chicago now, it's about 25 degrees and snow is falling. What a difference a week makes.
Our Naples Runcation was a success! We arrived on Saturday morning, got picked up by our gracious hostess with the mostest, Holly, then headed to pick up our race packets at Naples of the Run. We then settled into our fantastic hotel, The Cove Inn, and went for a little shakeout run to get ready for the big day.
Brandi | finish time: 1:49:32 (8:24 pace)
Race morning, I didn't feel great. Turns out I can drink wine with dinner the night before a race; craft beer, on the other hand, does not agree with me. Cardinal rule of running: Don't try anything new or different! Oh well. We got dressed and jogged over to the starting line. The Star Spangled Banner was one of the best renditions I've heard live. It was an a cappella group – I thought it was a recording! Halfway through the song, the speakers went out. Without missing a beat, all of the runners raised their voices and finished the song. It was so moving, I had tears in my eyes! It may have been a gimmick to pump us up, and if it was, it worked! It was an amazing way to start the race.
Now I'm not super religious, but about halfway through the race, we passed a large church. Outside, there was a reverend sprinkling holy water on racers and encouraging them to 'keep up the great work'. I really needed that inspiration at that very moment, and I appreciate that it wasn't overly preachy.
Lara | finish time: 1:41:30 (7:41 pace)
I'm not sure who I was kidding, but I was not expecting it to be so humid in Naples! I also remember the reverend sprinkling holy water and thinking, "Man, I really need this right now." After going out in a 6:48 first mile and 7:00 second mile, I immediately knew there was no way I was going to be able to sustain anything close to that pace with the humidity. I abandoned my sub-1:34 goal by mile 3 and honestly just hoped I could finish. My legs felt like jello and I was gasping for air and I still had 10 miles to go. Yikes.
Well, I DID finish and managed to run my second fastest half marathon time! I've only run 3 half marathons so you could technically say it was my second slowest, but I'm choosing to focus on the positive instead =) I got fourth in my age group, mostly because Naples seems to be more competitive amongst more, uh… seasoned athletes (they had awards for masters, grand masters AND senior grand masters winners). Even though I didn't run the time I had hoped for, I can't complain: the race motivated me to get ready for my next half (March 16!), and I spent the afternoon on the beach in the middle of January. I love Florida!
Amanda | finish time: 2:28:42 (11:25 pace)
I loved Naples, and the race organization was great, but this was the worst half marathon I have ever experienced! The warmer weather meant I was sweating before we even started, while all the Floridians stood coolly around me at the start line. The humidity was killer. By mile 3, I remember thinking, "Oh my gosh, this is going to be a real challenge, physically and mentally!" I took in as much Gatorade and water as I could, and there were plenty of stops along the race course, but my body was just not used to the weather. By mile 9, I really wasn't sure I would make it to the end. I was getting dizzy, felt simply out of it, and realized I had barely taken in the scenery around me or enjoyed the run.
Those last 4 miles were a bit of a blur. A sloooow blur. I started feeling really dizzy, so I stopped once or twice every mile to walk; except then I would realize that walking felt worse because I could feel how truly awful I felt. It was just a countdown of miles and time in my mind, trying to find people ahead of me to stay pace with so I could just FINISH. And finally, finally…I crossed the line. It may not be a PR, but I am pretty sure any race I ever run will never feel as hard as that…so the toughest part is over! That's a positive, right?

Blugold business students earn All-WIAC men's hockey honors
FIve University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire College of Business men's hockey players have received All-Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (WIAC) honors.
College of Business students recognized this year on the first team were Jack Callahan, a sophomore accounting and finance major from Red Banks, NJ; Andrew McCabe, a senior accounting and finance major from Eau Claire, WI; Jordan Singer, a senior management major from Lino Lakes, MN; and Brandon Stephenson, a senior management major from Saline, MI.
Business students honorably mentioned were David Donnellan, a junior management major from Eau Claire, WI and Mark Pustin, a junior management major from Northridge, CA.
Callahan, a defenseman in his first year with the Blugolds, has played in all 25 games so far this year. He has one goal and 15 assists, tied for a team-high. He is part of a defense that has given up just 56 goals and 727 shots while the Blugolds compiled 101 goals and 861 shots.
McCabe, a forward, has played in all 25 games so far this year and has compiled seven goals and 14 assists, tied for third most on the team.
Singer, a forward, leads the Blugolds with 18 goals and 30 points. He is also tied for fifth on the team with 12 assists. His 18 goals is a league-best while 30 points is tied for third most in the NCHA. He is currently 17th in program history for career points with 94 and 11th with 51 goals. He is first in school history in game-winning goals with 11. This is Singer's second straight year with All-WIAC accolades.
Stephenson, a goalie, led the NCHA in winning percentage (.818) and ranked second in total saves (594). He was one of the busiest goalies in the NCHA and still managed to lead his team to victory on most nights. Stephenson led the NCHA in conference minutes played (1087:12) and save percentage (.930). He went undefeated from October 26 through December 1 and allowed two or less goals in 15 of his 22 starts. Stephenson enters the Peters Cup Playoffs on a 7-1-0 streak over his past eight games. In program archives, Stephenson ranks first in both career wins with 43 currently and season wins with 17 so far this year.
Donnellan, a defenseman, has five goals and nine assists and has played in all 25 games so far this year.
Pustin, a forward, has played in 25 games this season and leads the team with 15 assists, tied for eighth on the team. He has a total of 23 points, second most on the team.

SoBeWFF: Hedy Goldsmith, Jeni Britton-Bauer, Paulina Naranjo Share a Love for All Things Frozen and Sweet
But Britton Bauer is known for other things, too. She supports local ingredients from her hometown in Ohio such as soft cheeses, fruits, and Snowville's grass-fed cow milk and cream. She champions the importance of seasonal flavors.
As for her own ice cream preferences, she admits, "I was a vanilla person at home. My grandmother would put jams from her pantry atop the ice cream and we'd eat it before bed."
Then, one day, she stirred cayenne pepper into a pint of chocolate ice cream. Her frozen treat preference changed forever. "It all started by combining flavors with scents -- mixing hot spices with cold ice cream -- kind of in the way you might layer a painting," she says.
For SoBeWFF, Britton Bauer is sending a truck full of portable ice-cream novelties, packed in dry ice, from Ohio to Florida. Included are chocolate almond caramel minis, which are stuffed with chocolate ice cream and ribboned with caramel.
For this year's Southern Kitchen Brunch, she will serve mini sandwiches stuffed with French toast ice cream and banana, maple syrup, and pecans. There will also be jelly donut macaroons stuffed with soft cheese ice cream. After a bite of that, who could really disapprove of ice cream for breakfast?

It was the winter of 2000. Chilling wind was blowing mercilessly. The venue for one of the most important match of my life was one of the famous Maidan ground of Calcutta. The match was important to me because it was a selection match for the one of the prestigious tournaments, which used to happen every year in Bangalore. And getting selected meant representing Bengal in that tournament. The conditions were not great for a batsman. But I knew with the kind of effort that I had put on and with my determination I would do good. I was eagerly waiting for my chance to show my potential to the big panel that came in to watch the match. A great yorker from the opening bowler of the opponent team cleaned up one of our opener. Now it was my turn to go in and carry the team forward. I went in determined to do well and beat the cold to script a good innings. My form at that time and scores in the last four matches gave me enough confidence. So, I took guard with conviction. All set to face the first ball. The left arm pacer rushed in and hurled a quickie at me. The ball pitched and moved across with the angle of the left-hander taking it away from me. I lunged forward, the jammed legs (thanks to the chilling weather) failed me and I was not able to reach the ball. It missed my willow by an inch atleast. The bowler and the close in fielders all appealed in unison. And then I noticed something which was heart breaking for me. The umpire's finger being raised signaled the end of the road for me. And meant another year of wait for me. All the effort that I had put in, went in vain due to that one wrong decision.
I know many among us who might have played professional cricket at some point of time or who might have followed cricket would identify with this situation. Far higher stakes are involved some of the times and many careers are made or destroyed due to some of the wrong decisions. I don't blame the umpires, because they are humans and it is quite possible to miss out some of the times. But the game can be made much fairer with the introduction of technologies in the cricket field. And that is exactly what has happened in the last few decades or so. Technology has played a significant role in the way cricket is played at the highest level. And that is the motivation which enthused me to script this article. So let us talk about some of them.
1. Third Umpire:
Although third umpire is being primarily used for run-out and stump decisions. And that too for the real close ones. But Third umpire is seeing an increasing role with many more decisions coming under its ambit. It started with the idea that it is difficult to judge the real close run-outs as the umpires sometimes fail to take a suitable position to judge. However, you won't believe until you see some of the real big time goof ups by the umpires where the batsman was almost 2-3 yard outside when the ball hit the stumps but still given not out. This was previous to "Third Umpire" being introduced. So, definitely it is a very good inclusion as far as cricket is concerned. The super slow motion shots are used by a third umpire sitting up in the pavilion to judge whether the batsman was in or out of the crease when the bails were dislodged. Now even an improved version has come where the exact measures of the distance of the batsman from the crease is shown.
2. Hawk Eye: It is another exciting tool that is being used in cricket. It is also being used in other sports like tennis. It is basically a computer system used to track the path of the ball. It captures the path of a ball and then displays the graphical version of the same. Lets see how it works:
- Hawk eye is based on the principles of triangulation using the visual images and timing data provided by at least four high-speed video cameras located at different locations and angles around the area of play.
- The system rapidly processes the video feeds by a high speed video processor and ball tracker.
- A data store contains a predefined model of the playing area and includes data on the rules of the game.
- In each frame sent from each camera, the system identifies the group of pixels which corresponds to the image of the ball.
- It then calculates for each frame the 3D position of the ball by comparing its position on at least 2 of the physically separate cameras at the same instant in time.
- A succession of frames builds up a record of the path along which the ball has traveled.
- The important part is the fact that it can also predict the future path of the ball.
- It can also predict where in future it will interact with the features in the playing arena which are already programmed in the database. Like in case of cricket it can predict whether the ball would hit the stumps or not. As in case of the adjacent picture the ball would miss the stump according to hawk eye.
- The system generates a graphic image of the ball path and playing area which means that information can be provided to judges, television viewers or coaching staff in near real time.
- The pure tracking system is combined with a back-end database and archiving capabilities so that it is possible to extract and analyze trends and statistics about individual players, games or ball to ball comparisons etc.
This is a very exciting technology. But in cricket it has not yet been used for taking decisions like it has been done in other sports like tennis where it is used as a part of the adjudication process. In cricket it is still used to validate the umpire's decision and it is generally a part of post analysis and not adjudication. Time constraint and reliability of the future path prediction by hawk eye are some of the factors which are still stopping ICC to leverage the full potential of the technology.
3. Snickometer:
It is another tool which is being primarily used by the commentators to evaluate the validity of the decision taken by the field umpire. It is used to graphically analyze sound and video, and show whether a fine noise, or snick, occurs as ball passes bat. It was invented by computer scientist Allan Plaskett in the mid-1990s. He is the brother of chess grandmaster James Plaskett. Invention of another commentary aid is in his name, the Flightpath. The Snicko as it is famously called is introduced by Channel 4 of UK, the same channel which also introduced Hawk Eye.
Snicko is predominantly used by commentators to judge whether the batsman has edged the ball or not. If there is a sound of leather on willow, which is usually a short sharp sound in synchrony with the ball passing the bat, then the ball has touched the bat. Other sounds such as the ball hitting the batsman's pads, or the bat hitting the pitch, and so on, tend to have a fatter shape on the sound form. One of the famous decisions which was evaluated by the Snicko to be a wrong decision was the not out decision given in favor of Andrew Symonds in the Sydney test of 2007-08 Border-Gavaskar trophy, which ultimately helped Ricky Ponting's team to win the 16th consecutive test. Things could have been different.
4. Hot Spot: It is another interesting technology which is of more latest origin than the others mentioned here. It is a infra-red imaging system used in cricket to examine whether the ball has struck the batsman, bat or the pad. It can play a critical role in determining whether the batsman is out or not, in case of an appeal for LBW or caught. It works in the following manner:
- Two infra-red cameras are positioned at either end of the ground.
- The friction generated by a collision, such as ball on pad, ball on bat, ball on ground or ball on glove is detected by these cameras.
- Precise localising of the ball's point of contact is done using a subtraction technique which results in a series of black-and-white negative frames being generated into a computer.
- Hot Spot uses technology developed in the military for tank and jet fighter tracking.
It was first used during the first Test match of the 2006-07 Ashes at The Gabba, on 23 November 2006 by Australian Nine Network. The system would be available to the third umpire in case of player referral. Hot spot can be used to resolve many critical decision problems like whether the ball hit the bat first and then the pad or pad first and then the bad. These identifications may be critical as in the first case only a caught appeal can be upheld and in the second both an LBW or caught. Hot spot also have advantage over the famous Snickometer. The technology was adopted by BBG sports in conjunction with Sky Sports.
There are lot of other technologies like pitchmap, bowling analysis etc. which are used and new ones which can be used in future. It might need another article to cover them all. However the main bone of contention for ICC is to judge whether to use a technology in the decision making process or not. The positives of using a technology are obvious that it makes it a fair deal for everyone in the park and stakeholders outside it. But then the problem of time comes up. It is a decision difficult to take in an age where we have already come down to 20-20 cricket to take care of time factor. The use of these technologies definitely calls for more time and slows the pace of the game. Money is also needed but I feel that ain't a big problem for ICC. So the challenge for ICC is to ensure that the pace of the game is maintained and also it remains a fair deal. I feel also the human touch would go out with the incorporation of more technology. Lets see how the future of cricket shapes up. Stakes are really high with Nations getting involved financially and emotionally in much greater proportion than in yesteryears and ICC has to call the shots and get it right.

During the Pentecost weekend the Grand Prix International de la Cote d'Opale celebrated its 10th edition at the harbors of Dunkerque and Boulogne sur Mer in Northern France. More than 46 teams joined the Helly Hansen supported regatta to make a great fest of the anniversary. The GPICO is the biggest sailing event in the region and is organized by Ligue de Voile du Nord-Pas-de-Calais (North of France Sailing Association). The sailing association comprises of 20 000 sailors and supports 2 major top level competition structures, to further promote high level sailing.
The participating teams were racing the whole weekend along the English Channel and the Nordic Sea where they enjoyed various sailing and weather conditions inshore, as well as offshore. Saturday, the sun and the light 10 knots breeze offered to the participants an opportunity for a very strategic battle in the classes HalfTonner and IRC1. Sunday was the 35 nautical miles offshore race day with rain and wind of 20 knots that let the boats sail with full power.
On the shore and in the harbors of Dunkerque & Boulogne sur Mer the public enjoyed the ambiance and the various activities organized for the 10th birthday of the GPICO. The highlight was the baptism of the last Mini 6.50 "Hissons les voiles en Nord-Pas-de-Calais" of the skipper Julien Marcelet, who finished 12th in the Pornichet Select last month.
This 10th edition of the GPICO offered a great spectacle. With the changing weather conditions no race was boring even for a moment! At Helly Hansen, we are very proud to support such a sailing forum. We want to wish again a very "joyeux anniversaire" to the staff and everyone involved in the organization, and congratulate them for preparing an event of such quality.

Latte vs Cappuccino
Have you lately been to Barista coffee shop? When you take a glance at the names of items on the menu card, you think they are all alien sounding having nothing to do with what you have come in to drink. But believe me, these names describe variations of your favorite beverage, coffee, in tastes that differ from each other drastically. Two such names are latte and cappuccino, that confuse many as despite having almost similar ingredients, latte tastes differently from cappuccino. Let us find out the differences between latte and cappuccino.
Both latte and cappuccino are beverages made of espresso and milk. The difference lies in proportions of ingredients. While cappuccino is 1/3rd espresso with 1/3rd amount of steamed milk and finally 1/3rd milk foam, latte is 1/4th espresso and three times more with a topping of foam. This difference in proportion means latte is milder and milkier than cappuccino. In latte, the milk is steamed, whereas in cappuccino, the milk is frothed. Micro foam of milk is prepared for the froth used in cappuccino. Skimmed milk tends to produce more froth than whole milk, which is why it is used in making cappuccino. On the other hand, the aim is not froth, but just steam, which is why any milk can be used to prepare a latte.
To make cappuccino, frothed milk is poured over espresso, while to make latte, steamed milk and espresso are poured together into a cup. Some experienced baristas know how to make fancy designs over latte with the help of frothed milk. There are some who like to add or sprinkle chocolate powder over both these types of beverages.
It is clear then that in both cappuccino, as well as latte, the amount or shot of coffee remains the same, and the difference in taste is all due to different amounts of milk, as well as frothed milk, used in cappuccino.
What's the difference between Latte and Cappuccino?
• Cappuccino and latte are coffee beverages that are made starting with the same espresso coffee.
• Cappuccino contains a lot of milk froth, while latte has very little milk froth. Instead latte is made with steamed milk
• To make a cappuccino, milk froth is poured over espresso, while to make latte, espresso and steamed milk are poured simultaneously in a cup.
• It is common to make artistic designs over latte using froth.

Desired Outcomes:
Evolving concepts in aesthetic surgery have led us to the current crossroads where we are forced to recognize the limitations of surgical contouring alone, as well as the limitations of isolated volume enhancement. This course will focus on the paradigm shift of combining surgical contouring with volume addition, allowing plastic surgeons to obtain results that are not possible with either individual modality. By examining the aesthetic aspects of surgical repositioning with ancillary volumetric enhancement to improve shape and contour in facial rejuvenation, breast augmentation and reduction, and body contouring surgery.

Nada, Nada! The tarpon win again...
The right equipment
Being ready with regards to equipment and clothing is a very good idea. Be prepared for some spending on this front. The fishing is exotic and expensive, and so is some of the equipment. If you are like most people - and like me - this is probably going to be one of the only trips ever you will do to such a destination. It is stupid not to be well prepared. If you dislike the thought of buying expensive gear that you will only need once, refer to borrowing from friends or shops.

I love eating. Since I am fortunately also quite successful at loosing weight without suffering, I am happy to share my findings: a Zen-talk on diet.
A lot of pain and suffering is caused by overweight. Practising Zazen is just one of the activities which are difficult and potentially dangerous (for the knees and spine) with too much fat on the body. Overweight does not only shorten our lives, it also makes especially the final years much less pleasant and joyful. Since part of my scientific research is related to understanding cardiovascular diseases, I know what I am talking about. Feeling just happy with significant overweight is no plan for life, it is one of the illusions we maybe can get rid of practising Zen.
The best way to loose weight is staying at a Zen temple. I lost 3.5 kg in 7 days this spring in Japan, although I ate a lot, three times a day. A physically active daily schedule, a regular life-style and healthy food work automatically.
The next-best way is applying some science and psychology. So here my basic rules:
- Energy balance: you must burn more energy than you intake by eating and drinking. If the energy balance is negative, you inevitably loose weight, since your body needs to compensate from it's own savings. 1 kg of body fat are approx. equivalent to 7000 calories. That amount of energy you need to burn more than you eat, in order to reduce 1 kg. Said that, I don't like counting calories, a "volume control" by using a small bento-box for lunch (see picture) works perfectly fine for me! And preparing a nice and healthy o-bento every day can be very motivating ...
- Insulin level: after eating carbon-hydrates, sugar (and maybe even sweeteners, though this is under discussion), the insulin level in the blood rises to help transporting energy into the body cells. In other words: it locks the exit doors to the fat reservoirs you want to burn. I avoid eating "in between", or drinking sweet stuff (including zero calories diet drinks containing sweeteners), because this pushes the insulin level up, and I cannot efficiently burn my fat for a certain time.
- Moving: moving burns calories, but just a little. Much more "expensive" for your body is being 24 hours prepared for physical activity: filling the reservoirs with energy and providing sufficient muscle power is very expensive. Therefore, regularly moving is an important key factor for a successful diet, far beyond the few calories you burn during the activity itself. And it prevents you from reducing your muscle volume during diet, instead of burning fat.
- Enjoying food: eating too less brings your body into an emergency mode: all functions burning energy go to a minimum, you won't just feel weak and bad, but also significantly reduce the ability to burn fat. When in spite of a strict diet the weight does not further reduce, this is a clear warning to eat more!
Also, I guess it is important to appreciate and enjoy good and healthy food, which should include it's preparation. When I am on diet, I spend lots more time with cooking and enjoy eating much more than usual. So a diet is not so much about eating less, but more about food.
- Motivation: imagine your life after reducing weight! You'll be a different person, and most likely much more active and healthy. For motivation, it might help to keep records of what you eat, of your morning weight, it might help to tell others and install some social control, and to visualise the amount of weight you already lost (by buckets filled with water carried upstairs once a day, if you like).
But most important I consider the motivation to actually start developing a focus on (preparing) healthy food, and to enjoy the process of improving your life, not to focus on the final result of a diet. This kind of motivation is not for enduring a horrible time until eventually you lost a few kilos, the process itself of improving your life by new eating habits is the goal!
|My today's lunch. For further inspirations on o-bento
I highly recommend http://justbento.com/
What is the link to Zen? you might ask after reading this. Some say, for reducing weight you need a strong will-power, and you must get rid of a scheme in which eating is a compensation for something else missing or going wrong in your life. I don't know ... but for sure regularly practising Zazen will help you with both aspects. In Zen, we try to do the next step right. Prepare the next meal in a suitable and healthy way, and forget about "diet" ...
WARNING: The above is my personal experience and might very well work for a physically and mentally healthy adult. In case of doubt, before trying yourself better consult a medical doctor or certified diets expert (I am not!). You'll very likely reduce weight with the above suggestions and enjoy the positive and unexpected side-effects, but you do so on your own risk!

By Nina Sankovitch
(Harper, $24)
When her older sister died at the age of 46, author Nina Sankovitch developed a novel prescription for recovering from the loss: Read one book daily and blog about it by the next morning — for one year. Her deeply moving memoir artfully intertwines her immigrant family's history with the universal themes of hope, resilience and memory that she repeatedly encountered in the 365 books she reviewed. Tolstoy and the Purple Chair celebrates not only the healing power of literature but its ability to connect us to the best of ourselves — and each other.

|Issue Date:
|Series/Report no.:
|Syllabi CRN
|The objective of this course is to improve your fluency in reading Latin and introduce you to the study of Latin literature and the tools we use as philologists. For some, this course will serve as the first advanced course after the elementary and intermediate language sequence we offer here at Rhodes. For those of you continuing on from the Oxford Latin Course, we will continue our study of Horace's Carmina, which students begin encountering in the third book of that sequence. For others, this course will represent a continuation of their work in AP courses offered in high school. For those who took the Latin literature course, we will read a selection of Horace's Carmina from book one that do not appear on the AP reading list. We will also expand the study of elegy beyond the Amores of Ovid by reading selections from the first book of Propertius' Elegiae. For those who took the AP course on the Aeneid, we will further develop your familiarity with the work of Virgil by working through a selection of the Eclogae and Georgica. Although this course is not designed with specific courses in other disciplines in mind, the material we cover will be of importance for the study of poetry in general.

Shelby County Master Gardeners meet on the second Friday of each month at 10 AM. Usually the meetings are held in the auditorium at the Shelby County Extension Office at 54 Kelly Ln, Columbiana, AL 35051. Call (205) 669-6763 for directions or more information.
Click here for the SCMGA BYLAWS.
History of Shelby County Master Gardener Association 1995-2013
Bill Legg
In 1995 several other Alabama counties had already begun Master Gardener groups and our very own Nelson Wynn decided Shelby County needed to follow suit. He took flyers around to nurseries and other places gardeners would frequent. Our first class was held in August of that year.
Just as soon as these class members finished their courses and did their 40 hours of community service, the association was formed.
A class has been held every year with the exception of 1998. Those first years were a time of growing and adapting to our members needs. The first meetings were held in homes until we outgrew most living rooms. The idea of having a pot luck lunch following our meeting began and we hope it never goes out of style. We have all agreed that our members are some of the best cooks in the country. We have always been able to get good and interesting speakers for our monthly meetings. Our regular meeting date of the 2nd Friday at 10 AM has proved to be the best time for most folks. Through the years we have tried a night class and night meeting on special occasions. These have not proved satisfactory and are being discontinued. We continue to have plant/seed swaps and tour the yards and gardens of our people.
We always have several members attending the state convention as well as regional meetings. Some of our members have held positions on the state board. Many members are available for speaking engagements as well as teaching our new class members. The knowledge gained from this program has been shared with countless others through our volunteers.

In 1929-30, he joined the Montreal Amateur Athletic Association team and helped lead his troops to an Allan Cup victory. His success came on the strength of line chemistry. He had Paul Haynes at centre and his brother, Desmond, on the other wing.
The following year, Roche entered the NHL with the Montreal Maroons. His signing marked the start of an on-again, off-again relationship with the league. From 1930 to 1935, he put in brief stints with the Maroons, the Bruins, the Senators, the St. Louis Eagles, and the Red Wings. Between big-league shows, he played for the Windsor Bulldogs of the IAHL.
After netting 52 points in 149 games, Roche left the NHL to embark on a lengthy minor-league career that landed him in Detroit, Buffalo, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Hershey, Providence, and, finally, New Haven where he hung up his skates for good in 1942.
