Editors' Top PicksSee All
At 14.7 megapixels, the Samsung NV100HD is one of the highest resolution compact point-and-shoots available on the market today. The NV100HD that we received for review was a silver unit with black accents, though the model also comes in either gold, black or silver with red accents.
For a supposedly compact camera, the Samsung's weight and unsightly lens protrusion won't endear it to the fashion crowd. It's surely a design that will polarise users; some will love it and others will hate the clunky look and feel. Unfortunately we fell into the latter category, as we found the casing to be incredibly slippery, with it falling out of our hands on a number of occasions, even when using the included wrist strap.
The NV100HD's 3-inch touchscreen takes up most of the available space at the back
(Credit: Samsung)
At the back is a 3-inch touchscreen with 460,000 pixels flanked by four buttons, which control the zoom, menu and playback functions. They are unobtrusive and blend nicely into the black surrounds of the screen. Up top sit the power and shutter buttons, backlit with blue, as well as the mode dial which twists around 360 degrees with some resistance. Underneath sits the battery/card slot, and the proprietary USB connector which is completely exposed to the elements.
The most cumbersome element of the design is the inane positioning of the flash unit. It pops up from the camera body and is situated just where your index finger rests when you hold the camera normally. This is more than just a design fault — it implies that no one actually considered how photographers would use this camera in the real world.
At 14.7 megapixels, the NV100HD lays claim to be one of the highest resolution compact cameras on the market. It is in all respects a high-end point-and-shoot, competing with the likes of Canon's IXUS 980 IS .
The inclusion of high definition video recording (720p) certainly tips the scales in the Samsung's favour — for a full discussion of the video quality, see below. There is unfortunately no included HDMI cable in the box, so you'll need to purchase a cradle to provide HD output to a television.

A recent study suggested that kids among the youngest in their class are diagnosed with ADHD more often than the older kids are. In the study, North Carolina State University researchers found that children born just after the kindergarten eligibility cutoff date were 25 percent less likely to be diagnosed with ADHD than children born just before the cutoff date -- who are almost an entire year older than the youngest kids.
This is a concern, researchers say, because immaturity could be confused with ADHD, which is often treated with medication. "We believe that younger children may be mistakenly diagnosed as having ADHD, when in fact they are simply less mature," study researcher Melinda Morrill said in a statement.
Our message boards have been buzzing about this news, and not just because of the likelihood that a kid could be misdiagnosed. Some moms of kids who have ADHD worry that reports like this feed into the common misconception that their kids have been wrongly assessed. Here's what a few community members had to say:
"Stories like these worry me. They could cause parents to think their child is not ADHD and blame it on their age. On the other hand, I do think it's a cautionary message to wait and see how your child does in later grades to see if it is a maturity/behavior issue." --cmmelissa
"Our son is one of the oldest in his class ... and I don't think it means much of anything. I think the earlier kids can get help, the better. " --febjunebabies
"My hyper 7-year-old has always been the youngest in her school classes ... but she has always been considered mature for her age and has always been ahead academically. She is also very social and makes friends easily. I don't think my kid's ADHD is an issue of age maturity." --momnstuff
"I certainly hope this article does not push parents to wait to have their child diagnosed." –-jo_x_2

FM 2014: Wonderkids and Flops
The one thing that really gets my juices flowing when it comes to new release of FM is debunking who the new stars and best players will be, in this article we will be looking at the real world and trying to work out who the true stars, flops and perhaps even the odd hidden gem will be when 2014 is released.
We won't be looking at the consistently top players in the world, just those who have changed the most over the last year, both positively and negatively as these are the guys you may not think of.
For die-hard FM fans this part of the game is always the most thrilling, the hours of scouting, searching through the under-18s of every country in the world and filling your scouts diaries with 99.9% of crap, hoping that one of these kids will show some promise, this article will be a great place to start.
Those of you who may be new to the series, perhaps you're looking at the next instalment to be your first, these next few months will be tough going but luckily for you the 2013 game is available for under a tenor if you're feeling blue.
Looking back in history its safe to say that those players that are performing week in week out in the daily rigours of top-flight football will be stat-heavy come the next game, it's also a fair shout to say that those players that have seen a downturn in their performances will be downgraded in the same way but who are these players and how much will they be affected?
Firstly lets look at those people we expect to be the new class-acts come the new game.
Best FM 2014 Players: Our 5 Would-be Superstars
Theres dozens, if not hundreds of players that will be up there with the best in the game but we have focused on those that have changed the most over the last year, those players that were run of the mill or pretty good on FM13 that are bound to be absolute hero's when 14 is released.
No 1. Gareth Bale
Gareth was good in Football Manager 2013 but this year he will be one of the best on the game, perhaps even in a Barca or Real shirt by the time it's released.
He has shown on a World stage that he is capable of mixing it with the best and we fully expect him to be given a massive boost. The 23-year-old Tottenham superstar has made 41 appearances this year in the Prem and in Europe with a total of 24 goals and 8 assists including some monumental solo appearances and spectacular goals from distance.
The other key change to Bale's FM characteristics will be his positional awareness, in 13 he was accustomed to the ML/AML position with ability to do a job anywhere on the left side and fill-in on the right-wing if needed but now, with the free-roll given to him this season he will no doubt be much more flexible and we think his 'bright-greens' will stretch to the AMC position too.
Lets have a more in-depth look at his stats:
This is how he starts the game on 2013, as you can see a very good all-round winger and attacking midfielder but by no means a world-beater.
Using Bale's extraordinary form in the Premier League as a gauge we fully expect his stats to raise considerably from the above. In particular:
Dribbling from 16 > 18
Crossing from 15 > 17
Finishing from 14 > 17
Longshots from 10 > 17
First Touch from 15 > 17
Free Kick Taking from 16 > 18
Off The Ball from 14 > 16
Flair from 11 > 16
Creativity from 13 > 16
Strength from 13 > 16
We reckon that's a fair adjustment to his ability and one that will make him one of the best on the game, especially if he isn't playing at Tottenham.
No 2. Marouane Fellaini
In our book Fellaini is one of the best bullying midfielders on the planet, of course he isn't a massively creative force and isn't in the same league as his Spanish and Brazilian counterparts, but he offers something else, a towering brute of a man who is capable of using his extreme strength and tenacity to win games all by himself.
I have never been fortunate enough to own Marouane on FM, not to say I haven't tried (bloody man city), but he is a must-have accessory for a team that likes to play a flat 2 in the midfield. Coupled with either a BWM or a DLP he is magical to watch and scores loads from set-pieces.
In his Everton colours he finished the season with 11 goals and 5 assists in 31 appearances but that doesn't tell the whole story. Marouane is an inspiration to his team mates and the loyal fans that adore this fuzzy-haired midfielder, he has also scroed some massively important goals in crucial games.
His stats on FM 2013 show his class as one of the best midfield enforcers on the game but we do expect his creative side to be improved as well as some of his mental attributes, heres what we think:
Passing from 15 > 16
Influence from 5 > 14
Creativity from 12 > 14
Bravery from 18 > 19
Flair from 10 > 13
Though we don't expect a massive increase in his stats, we do expect him to perform vastly better on the game and be able to operate more efficiently further forward.
No 3. Philippe Coutinho
One that could have made the 'Wonderkids' section but at 21 Philippe isn't a youngster anymore, he's a fully fledged star ready to show what he has in his locker.
Liverpool pulled off this signing last year, it really went under the radar and this season I think the top 4 will be wondering why they were not interested in this impressive attacking midfielder.
Those who have watched Coutinho play for Liverpool know this guy is class, we have been admirers of his talent for many years and its a bit of shame that his Inter Milan career was held back by a manager preferring experience to youth, great news for 'pool though.
Though not a standout performer last season he showed enough for the scousers to take him under their wing, a pre-season training tour with Gerard and Suarez will definitely help his growth.
He only made 12 starts for Liverpool but quickly amassed 3 goals and 5 assists including some awesome creativity that many fans will be dying to see on a more regular basis next season, he is definitely under the guise of the right manager to achieve that.
Theres loads of room to grow but we reckon Philippe will see a dramatic increase in his stats, followed by an increase in his overall potential, he could certainly be regarded in one of the best youngish AMC's on the game.
Long Shots from 12 > 15
Finishing from 12 > 16
First Touch from 16 > 17
Dribbling from 16 > 17
Passing from 16 > 18
Positioning from 7 > 13
Creativity from 16 > 18
Everyone has their favourite players, the ones that you have to sign even though there is better or cheaper available, Coutinho is my drug.
No 4. Jesus Navas
Man City have just snapped up Jesus and to be honest I am shocked that it has taken this long for him to be involved in one of the biggest teams in the world.
An explosive winger, mainly right, that loves to cut in. He has really shown his class during his countries journeys to the final of the confederations cup.
Though he is known as not putting in any sort of defensive shift Navas more than makes up for that with his contribution further up the pitch. His problem in the past has been in front of goal, his finishing is not the best but he is often targeted as the 'main danger-man' in a team so playing for City he is bound to have more freedom to show what he can do.
In FM Jesus has been a fairly run of the mill player for several seasons, often getting big moves but rarely setting the world alight with his new club but with his recent performances on the World-stage and a big money move to Manchester now completed Jesus is set for a huge rebuild of his stats and performances on the game.
For a winger his stats are already fairly good, definitely better than his new rivals in Milner and Scott Sinclair thats for sure but as a new-be to the Premier League we expect him to be given a nice boost:
Crossing from 15 > 17
Dribbling from 17 > 18
Finishing from 10 > 14
Long Shots from 11 > 13
Passing from 14 > 16
Acceleration from 19 > 20
Pace from 17 > 19
These improvements would really make Navas stand out in the City team and we think that will happen both in real-life and on Football Manager 2014.
No 5. Matija Nastasic
26 games for Man City in your first season, 2 MOM awards, only one yellow card and a pass success rate of 87% as a defender puts you at the top of your game in any team on the planet but doing that at the age of 20 makes you one of the best talents in the World.
Matija is just that, a towering powerful centerback with all the quality of Nemanja Vidic but without his 'clunky' athleticism.
Mancini had absolute faith in Nastasic for 90% of the games that he was available for, that says a lot but what will be his fate under the new gaffer at the helm of city?
Either way he is bound to be a must buy in Football Manager 2014 and his stats are set for a major makeover.
Matija, in my opinion will be the second most sought-after young defender on the game behind Varane and is set for a massive upgrade in playing statistics, my guess is:
Marking from 14 > 17
Tackling from 15 > 17
Heading form 15 > 18
Influence from 11 > 14
Off The Ball from 11 > 15
Teamwork from 12 > 14
And an overall 2-3 point increase in most mental and physical stats.
As well as these 5 there's a few others that are well worth a mention, we anticipate some great strides forward from people like:
- Santi Cazorla
- Leighton Baines
- Laurent Koscielny
- David Luiz
Who Won't Be Worth Targeting?
Now for as many top-performing players in the Prem this seasons there has been just as many under-performing stars of old, people who didn't cut the mustard and players that will be due a downgrade come FM 14.
Heres who we think we not be quite as big a force as they have been on previous games:
Wayne Rooney
Wayne has continued to fall in standard over the last season or two, whether that is because of age, lack of motivation or being in need of a new challenge Rooney has certainly lost his charm slightly and we completely anticipate a fall in his skill levels come FM 2014.
Though he still scored a decent amount of goals last season he was often used much deeper than before to open up the position for RVP to take further forward. Looking a shadow of his former-self Wayne has been attracting interest from other clubs and though he has said he didn't hand in a transfer request, there is every chance he could be moving on to a lesser team than United.
David Silva
A year ago David Silva was regarded as one of the magical Spanish midfield, now he has lost his flair and lost his way slightly. Partially over taken in the pecking order by Pedro, Juan Matta and Jesus Navas Silva is no longer one of the first names on the team-sheet of Vicente Del Bosque's team.
David will no doubt still be a very good player but he has certainly dropped in stature over the past season and we fully expect that to be correlated in his stats for the next game.
Vincent Kompany
In the same way David Silva was a modern great this time last year Vincent Kompany was seen as unflappable, perhaps the top defender in the world at the time. But towards the end of the season this previously solid defender started to show cracks in his armour, started making mistakes and was often overshadowed by Nastasic.
With Matija set to be upgraded, Kompany may well have some competition in next years FM for a starting place amongst die-hard FM fans.
In recent seasons on the game Kompany has been making a ludicrous amount of mistakes, is this a sign that in the recent patches the developers have already decided his fate?
Thomas Vermaelen
Captaincy hit Thomas hard, he struggled and buckled under the pressure of being the clubs leader and this lead to some rather shocking performances on the pitch, this soon lead to him being dropped from the team and no doubt from his captaincy role come the new season.
Though he may return to his former self he barely pulled on the Arsenal shirt towards the end of the season and they looked much better for it, he is surely going to be given a penalty for this lack of game-time, composure and unreliability.
Luis Suarez
A controversial choice as he has probably just had his best season in his career, but for us and the FM developers it must be about time that he was labelled as a liability.
His on and off the field actions are not marks of a superstar player and I suspect that his levels of aggression, composure and concentration will be adjusted dramatically to encourage this type of irrational play on the game.
For us Suarez is no longer a top-player, though he will no doubt be sold to a massive club, his qualities on the pitch do not overshadow his ability to cause controversy on it.
Lucas Leiva
For a few seasons now Lucas Leiva has been less than impressive on the pitch and is constantly suffering with injuries and yet on the game he has consistently been one of the best DMC's there is. It's time this changed, he does not deserve to be labelled with such qualities.
Shinji Kagawa
A lot was expected from Shinji when he signed for United, a great talent and a very skilful player indeed but in his debut season he barely did anything more than Ji Sung Park ever did, only without his work rate.
Often described as another way for United to increase their revenues from Asia Kagawa has a lot to prove, but I do imagine he will get more game time this season, he matches the type of mould that Moyes' likes, for the same reason I see Nani getting less time which will help Shinji.
He was long a good signing on FM and was regarded as a great signing by many this time last year but it hasn't come to fruition and we think he will be no more than an average attacking midfielder when the game comes out.
Like Leiva, Sandro has long been an FM favourite, he has long been an over-performing and overrated player on the game who contributed little in the real world. It's about time he was lowered in standard.
There is no excuse for Sandro anymore, he's been in the country for a few years and is yet to show the potential he once promised. If only he would spend as much time doing good stuff on the field as he does with his hair.
Wonderkids, Where Art Thou Wonderkids: 5 Predicted Stars
For me, one of the most exciting parts to any Football Manager instalment is trying to find and sign the latest batch of wonderkids, those super-human stars of the future that have been identified by the developers over the past 12 months so we've been testing our knowledge and have ear-marked a selection of wonderkids that we think will be top-notch and available for all most Prem teams in the new game.
No 1. Lloyd Jones
Lloyd, touted by some as the next Alan Hansen, was signed by Liverpool from Plymouth for an initial £20k and has shone in the under-18′s and been a regular in the under-21 set up years before average.
Commanding in the air but graceful and comfortable in possession Lloyd was handed a squad number by Brendan Rogers for a game against Fulham last term and is widely expected to be promoted through the ranks quickly and make his debut before his 18th birthday this October.
Jones is sure to have caught the eye of the SI developers and could well be one of the game's top youngsters.
No 2. Alen Halilovic
Dynamo Zagreb's 16-year-old midfielder is already picking up attention from a host of top European teams with Spurs being the most recent.
Croatia's youngest ever top-flight player Alen is fast breaking more records and is expected to be one of the top youngsters in the world in the coming years.
Grounded and talented the youngster could have his pick of clubs but has his mind firmly set on growing and doing what is best for his career.
Regularly compared to Luka Modric the youngster is confident on the ball, agile and very skilful. Though slightly light-weight he has the ability to step-aside the rough and tumble of the Premiership.
N0 3. Jordan Ibe
Another Liverpool youngster, this kid is quick and is of a similar mould to Raheem Stirling but with a more physical aspect to his game.
It has been said that Ibe may end up being positioned further forward in the future but is already plying his trade with regular appearances on the Liverpool bench and team towards the end of last season.
Jordan was not particularly recognised on FM 2013, but under the guise of the right manager he was capable of becoming a leading Prem winger and this is only going to get better come 2014.
No 4. Luke Shaw
Although already an awesome prospect and already very good on Football Manager 2013, he is sure to get a big move this summer and that will only increase his stock and profile.
I see him moving to Chelsea or Tottenham this summer with an outside chance of United, if not he will be an awesome signing for any top-flight club in FM 14.
A Premier League regular, Luke is progressing very well and is certainly an all-round left-back. Many have compared him to a young Ashley Cole but I think this boy could be better than that, take the athleticism of Cole, crossing ability of Baines and a more attacking minded Philipe Lahm and you get somewhere near the player Luke turns in to on FM 2013.
Lets hope that is portrayed in real-life too.
No 5. Wallace
After joining Fluminese at 11 years old this right back soon grew in to a cracking youngster and although he has already agreed a big move to Chelsea as part of the deal that took Deco the other way a few years ago, he could be potential loan signing for lower-league or bottom half Prem teams next term.
A fast, tricky and athletic right footed defender Wallace is very similar to Dani Alves but has already shown his ability to defend very early in his career, he has shown his class in the Under 17s for Brazil and is the first name on the team sheet with a full international call up believed to be not too far in the future.
Though a very raw player he is vastly superior in terms of strength over the Man Utd Da Silva twins and is expected to slot straight in to the Chelsea first team fold upon his arrival in England.
Though potentially not available for the first season on FM 2014, Wallace may be available for loan and those type of player is often available for purchase early on in their careers. He is well worth checking out, there isn't many good right backs on FM 2013 or appearing on the world scene at the moment.
Until next time
You may have guessed that we are massively excited about Football Manager 14, we love talking about it and if you do to give us your ideas to add to this post and we will get them mentioned.

Southwest Radio Church of the Air began in April 1933, when Dr. E. F. Webber, pastor of a local church in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, preached a prophetic message over a local radio station, KTOK. His radio program was his radio church - thus the name, Southwest Radio Church.
As the storm clouds of war began to rise over Europe and Asia, Dr. Webber was convinced that the world was entering the last generation. The format of the daily program was:
- Evangelism - Broadcast the good news that Jesus Christ came to save sinners.
- Prophecy - Signs of the time indicate that Jesus is returning soon.
- Missions - Raise funds to support missionaries in foreign countries.
- Teaching - Teach the Word to discipleship believers.
- Publish - Supplement preaching with sound Christian book dissemination.
- Contend for the Faith - Confront and oppose apostasy within the churches.
- Encourage - Support other ministers who need to be heard.
From 1933 to the present time, this ministry format has not changed.
In 1959, Dr. Webber was taken home to be with the Lord. David Webber, Dr. Webber's son, and Noah Hutchings, who had joined the ministry in 1951, continued the radio broadcast. Southwest Radio Church subsequently grew from a regional ministry to an international Christian organization, heard in the United States daily from coast to coast.
In 1988, David Webber resigned from the Board of Trustees, and from 1988 to the present Noah Hutchings has carried on the ministry.
Southwest Radio Ministries continues as the oldest, daily communications ministry in the world. It is financially supported by freewill contributions from our listeners, Christian foundations, and churches.
The goal of the ministry is to stay on the air until Jesus comes for us in the air.

Scarlett Johansson naked pictures leaked on Web
Sep 14, 2011, 11:03 a.m.
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Actress Scarlett Johansson has become the latest celebrity to fall victim to apparent leaked nude photos from her mobile phone, which appeared on a website on Wednesday.
The FBI has been drafted by "The Avengers" actress to investigate, according to celebrity news website TMZ. An FBI spokesman declined to confirm or deny the investigation, and a representative for Johansson was not immediately available to comment.
The photos show the 26 year-old actress in a towel with an exposed backside, while another shows her topless. They were posted on several celebrity gossip websites.
Johansson's nude pictures are the latest to hit the Internet after actresses including Jessica Alba and Vanessa Hudgens also suffered the embarrassment of explicit photos appearing on the Web.

Federal Oversight of Food Safety:
High-Risk Designation Can Bring Attention to Limitations in the Government's Food Recall Programs

Each year, about 76 million people contract a foodborne illness in the United States; about 325,000 require hospitalization; and about 5,000 die. The outbreaks of E. coli in spinach and Salmonella in peanut butter, along with contamination in pet food, have highlighted the risks posed by accidental food contamination. The attacks of September 11, 2001, heightened awareness that the food supply could also be vulnerable to deliberate contamination. This testimony focuses on the (1) role that GAO's high-risk series can play in raising the priority and visibility of the need to transform federal oversight of food safety, (2) fragmented nature of federal oversight of food safety, and (3) limitations in federal food recall programs.
GAO's High-Risk Series is intended to raise the priority and visibility of government programs that are in need of broad-based transformation to achieve greater economy, efficiency, effectiveness, accountability, and sustainability. These reports also help Congress and the executive branch carry out their responsibilities while improving the government's performance and enhancing its accountability for the benefit of the American people. In January 2007, as part of our regular update of this series for each new Congress, GAO designated the federal oversight of food safety as a high-risk area for the first time. We designated federal oversight of food safety as a high-risk area because of the need to transform this system to reduce risks to public health as well as the economy. While this nation enjoys a plentiful and varied food supply that is generally considered to be safe, the federal oversight of food safety is fragmented, with 15 agencies collectively administering at least 30 laws related to food safety. The two primary agencies are the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), which is responsible for the safety of meat, poultry, and processed egg products, and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which is responsible for virtually all other food. We have identified examples where the federal government's resources and enforcement activities can better align with the risks of food contamination. For example, the majority of federal expenditures for food safety inspection were directed toward USDA's programs for ensuring the safety of meat, poultry, and egg products; however, USDA is responsible for regulating only about 20 percent of the food supply. In contrast, FDA, which is responsible for regulating about 80 percent of the food supply, accounted for only about 24 percent of expenditures. Among the reasons we designated federal oversight of food safety as a high-risk area is that limitations in the federal government's food recalls heighten the risk that unsafe food will remain in the food supply and ultimately be consumed. Food recalls are voluntary, and federal agencies responsible for food safety have no authority to compel companies to carry out recalls--with the exception of FDA's authority to require a recall for infant formula. USDA and FDA provided guidance for companies to carry out voluntary recalls. We have reported that USDA and FDA could do a better job carrying out their food recall programs so they can quickly remove potentially unsafe food from the marketplace. At the time of our review, these agencies did not know how promptly and completely companies were carrying out recalls, did not promptly verify that recalls had reached all segments of the distribution chain, and used procedures that may not have been effective to alert consumers to a recall.

WIAW–Clean Out The Fridge42
November 21, 2012 by Katie
Hellooooooooo from Kansas City! My flight yesterday went very smoothly and I am home with my family! Well… with my parents since my older brother isn't coming home for Thanksgiving and my younger brother moved into his own apartment!
Anyway, I'm sure you all have traveling and cooking to get back to, so let's get on to What I Ate Wednesday! If you are new to WIAW, head over to Peas and Crayons to see what it's all about and find other participating blogs!
This week's WIAW is from Monday, and shows my attempt to clean everything out of my fridge before I left! I decided to sleep in on Monday and do my workout later, so breakfast was a sweet potato, two eggs and some sliced bell peppers (sriracha added after photo).
Then I was off to class! For snacks, I had a Health Warrior Chia Bar, which I'm loving right now…
And then a banana on the way home! I knew I was going to make lunch when I got home but my stomach was growling and I just couldn't wait a whole hour!
For lunch, I cut up two chicken sausages from Trader Joe's and sauteed them with spinach and eggplant.
And a Dark Chocolate Hersey's Kiss for dessert!
After lunch I read a few blogs, and then went to run some errands. One of them brought me near my froyo place, so I stopped in! When she checked off my sheet, I saw I hadn't been in for weeks!!! Blasphemy! (for new readers, I won a year of free froyo!).
After errands, I stopped by my brother and sister-in-law's to see this gorgeous face!
After hanging out with her a while and then taking her to the park, it was time for the gym! However I was feeling a little hungry so I snagged a brown rice cake (thanks lauren…!) and topped it with some salsa. I only ended up eating about half because it was more filling than I expected.
After my workout, I headed home and showered and then made some dinner! It will look very familiar…. This time I sautéed two chicken sausages with eggplant and bell peppers! Haha thrilling, but delicious.
I ended the evening with some strawberry protein ice cream. Perfection.
Do you eat weird meals to clear out your fridge before traveling?
Are you a snacker or do you prefer just three big meals?
Category what i ate wedensday | Tags: Forever Yogurt, Health Warrior Chia Bar, protein ice cream

That sweet potato for breakfast looks so good! I eating some grapes right now waiting for my butternut squash to cook in the microwave. I'm so hungry! Haha.
None of your combos look strange to me. Just delicious!
I'm definitely a snacker. I've tried the three-a-day thing. Epic Fail.
Yep, I call em garbage bowls! They always end up tasting pretty good even if they look terrible! Safe travels and Happy Thanksgiving!
I think it is so fun to try and put together meals when cleaning out the fridge…I feel like I am on that food network show chopped.
Aww your puppy is too cute! And everything looks amazing- that's awesome that you won a free year of fro-yo! Sweet potatoes for breakfast are the best:) Happy almost Thanksgiving!
haha yes i def eat weird meals to clean out my fridge!! hate letting things go to waste!
I'm definitely a smaller meals with snacks in between kind of person. I won a box of those Health Warrior bars (coconut!) and I can't wait to try them. I'll probably have one this afternoon.
Eggplant is a veggie that always forget about, even though I love it!
i am super jealous that you got home without a hitch but i'm glad i have lots of blogs to keep me entertained on my delayed flight. i love those chicken sausages – which reminds me, i have some in my freezer that i want to eat. i definitely do weird meals to clean out my fridge. typically i just start throwing everything in sight into either a scramble, a salad, or toss them between bread and call it a sandwich. some combos work better than others, lol.
How did I not know you won a year of free FroYo? Happy Thanksgiving and safe travels!
Oh yum!! How did you make your Strawberry Protein Ice Cream?
So jealous of your froyo for a year!! I would be overjoyed just to have froyo near me, none-the-less win some weekly for 52 weeks!
I love tossing together fridge left-overs. However, my Dad and I tend to just let the other person know that our fridge left-overs are up for grabs if we're going away or aren't going to be able to finish them before they go bad. Wait. Nix that. That's what my Dad does. I don't often go away, and so sharing isn't really necessary.
I definitely clear out my fridge before I leave. I always tell myself not to buy so many veggies/fruit on weeks I know I'm going out of town but I always end up with too many.
I totally agree about the brown rice cakes being surprisingly filling! I bought some to eat before runs but switched to the white rice cakes because they were lighter and easier to eat pre-workout.
Have fun with your family and happy early Thanksgiving!!
Your dinner with the smoked sausage looks so good! I was in operation clean out the fridge mode too.
Love the doggie pics!
The spinach and eggplant salad looks so good..that and your froyo! Mmm Mmm!
Haha I've definitely eaten some weird combinations when I'm cleaning out my fridge. Your meals all look really good to me though!
And I didn't know you won a year of free fro yo! That's like a dream come true!
So jealous about the fro-yo!
that fro yo looks amazingggg! i wish i had a fro yo place near me theres no where
You won a free year of froyo? That's SO cool! I bet you've been coming up with all kinds of great combos.
ADORABLE dog, too btw!
That froyo looks yummy. I don't often go on trips long enough to have to clean my fridge out completely, but I usually put together more snack-ish/sampler meals during that time – whatever works!
I've been thinking about Sweet potatoes for a while, now. I think this is a sign for me to get some in my belly. I do try to clean out my fridge before I leave, but that is usually the time I come up with my most elaborate and tasty dishes, strangely enough. I think it is because I'm trying to think of the best way to use as many things as possible and I come up with new ways to bring flavors together. I love the "clear out the fridge" time. I need meals, but I also snack if necessary. I like meals to be smaller and lighter, so to some it is considered snacking, I just consider it lots of meals hehehe
I take the 5-6 meals a day approach…I'm never starving but never stuffed either, and I love to eat, so it works great for me!
A year of free froyo?!? There are no words for how jealous I am.
I always make sure to clean out my fridge… The other day I ate mussels… Just mussels, nothing else, cause they were in there and just needed to be consumed, LOL! They actually weren't bad by themselves
Oh and I am totally a 3 meals girl, no snacking for me!
Haha I love that we practically had the same titles today! Enjoy your time with family!
Your lunch looks amazing! I hope you enjoy your holiday
Haha I totally did this today too–I actually ate leftover vegan shepherd's pie for breakfast! Happy Thanksgiving
By the way I am doing a sunwarrior giveaway on my blog, I would be so thankful if you promoted it!
I kind of love clean out the fridge days. I end up making (random, but) wicked omelets, salads and stir frys. And I'm TOTALLY a snacker! I can't handle only a few big meals. Snacking keeps my energy up, plus I just love food, so having it more often works for me

A Hero of the Brain
Selected Papers on Language and the Brain
Cerebral Dominance: The Biological Foundations
Dyslexia: Current Status and Future Directions
Nineteenth-century neurology was dominated by two opposing schools of thought. Early in the century the Austrian neuroanatomist Franz Gall and his disciples claimed that, to those practiced in the art, an examination of bumps on a person's head revealed talents and psychological characteristics; traits of character, he held, were controlled by specific regions of the brain. Gall had a fashionable success in France, but was ridiculed by the leading neurologist of the day, M.J.P. Flourens, who had performed experiments on birds' brains. At the height of his fame in the 1840s, when he defeated Victor Hugo for membership in the French Academy, Flourens believed that he had conclusively demonstrated that activities such as walking and flying were not dependent on any particular region of the brain. The brain functions as a whole, he argued, and it was impossible to predict the specific effects of any form of damage.
In 1861 the French neuroanatomist Paul Broca demonstrated that damage to a specific region on the left side of the cerebral cortex caused severe language problems, such as an inability to speak fluently. This was the first serious challenge to Flourens and the "holistic" school. Subsequently, the German neurologist Carl Wernicke found another region on the left side of the brain that apparently controlled different aspects of language, including the ability to understand speech. Wernicke argued that the region on the left side of the brain that had been discovered by Broca was somehow responsible for translating language formulated in the brain into the mechanical movements of the vocal cords, the tongue, and the mouth. A band of fibers called the arcuate fasciculus connected Broca's region to the same region that Wernicke himself had discovered; and Wernicke believed that the region he had discovered was responsible for the recognition, or sorting, of speech as distinct from other sounds. Clinicians soon found that such "localization" of brain functions explained many other patterns of neurological disorders in addition to language. In 1884, for example, a patient with epilepsy and partial paralysis had a brain tumor removed in the first such operation in medical history. The neurological symptoms enabled the surgeon to locate the exact position of the tumor.
During the early years of the twentieth century, however, the belief that psychological behavior derived from separate mental faculties, each controlled by different centers in the brain, became increasingly unpopular; most neurologists and psychologists considered this an implausible view of human psychology. In 1927 a neurology textbook noted:
Neurologists have been prone, even up to the present time, to fall into the error of attempting to find specific centers for particular mental functions or faculties. But the evidence at present available gives small promise of success in the search for such centers. It is, in fact, theoretically improbable that such discoveries will ever be made, for psychology today recognizes no such mosaic of discrete mental faculties as would be implied by such a doctrine.1
For many neurologists, the anatomical evidence also failed to support the nineteenth-century localization doctrine. Specific functions, they argued, were attributed to regions in the brain that were not well defined anatomically; and the patterns of brain damage found on post-mortem examination proved to be more variable than the localization arguments had predicted. Perhaps most dramatic were the claims of the Harvard psychologist Karl Lashley, who poked holes in rat brains. As Flourens had argued a century earlier, Lashley claimed that the rats' neurological problems were a function of the amount of brain damage, not the specific sites of damage. While Lashley did not claim that his rat experiments were relevant to an understanding of human brain function, other people thought that what was true of rats was true of human beings as well. By the 1950s the localization argument appeared dead. The standard American medical textbook commented in the 1958 edition:
Knowledge of the location of speech functions has come almost exclusively from study of human beings who have succumbed to local brain diseases. From the available information it seems almost certain that the whole language mechanism is not divisible into a number of parts, each depending on a certain fixed group of neurones. Instead, speech must be regarded as a sensorimotor process roughly localized…in the left cerebral hemisphere, and the more complex elaborations of speech probably depend on the entire cerebrum.2
Today, however, most psychologists and neurologists would argue that speech and other brain functions can indeed be divided "into a number of parts." Studies in information processing and artificial intelligence have plausibly suggested how the brain processes information as a series of discrete subtasks; and the same studies do much to explain the symptoms that puzzled and confused neurologists in the first half of this century. Yet well before these arguments had begun to take shape in the 1970s, Norman Geschwind, who until his death in November 1984 was a professor of neurology at Harvard Medical School, had started a thorough reexamination of the classical neurological writings that had first suggested the arguments for localization. Geschwind vindicated the localization approach that had been dismissed by neurologists and psychologists between the 1920s and 1950s. His work is the culmination of the classical tradition of Broca and Wernicke and helped to set the stage for new approaches to the brain.
In 1961 Geschwind came upon a rarely mentioned study by the French neurologist Jules Joseph Dejerine, published in 1892. It was this work that led to his reexamination of other forgotten, dismissed, and even misquoted writings, and to the publication in 1965 of his own monograph, largely a defense of the classical approach, "Disconnexion Syndromes in Animals and Man." (The essay appears in Selected Papers on Language and the Brain.) Dejerine had described the case of a very intelligent businessman who on awakening one morning found that he could no longer read. When looking straight ahead he could not see the color of objects on his right (known as the right visual field), though he had no trouble seeing the color of objects on his left. His speech and comprehension were perfectly normal. He could write but he was unable to read what he had written. Yet he had no difficulty reading and writing numbers. And he could copy written material without understanding what he was copying.
Though he could not read visually, he could read when he traced the outlines of letters with his fingers. He had no trouble naming objects, including pictures of complicated scientific instruments. "There was no evidence," Geschwind wrote, "of any general intellectual disturbance since the patient continued during his illness to operate a highly successful business, to gamble at cards successfully, and to learn vocal and instrumental parts of operas by ear since he could no longer read music."
These symptoms can be explained as follows: normally, the two sides, or hemispheres, of the brain communicate directly through the band of fibers called the corpus callosum. The nerves that carry information from the eyes to the brain cross; information from the right visual field goes to the left hemisphere of the brain and information from the left visual field goes to the right hemisphere. The man's color blindness in the right visual field meant that the visual areas of his left hemisphere were partly damaged. This damage, however, was extensive enough to destroy the fibers carrying visual information from both hemispheres to the language centers discovered by Broca and Wernicke. The patient's ability to see words without understanding them meant that the words and sentences he saw never reached the language centers in the left hemisphere. His color blindness in the right visual field provided the clue to the site of the damage in the left hemisphere. Information presented in tactile form, however, went directly to the language centers to be "read."3
Geschwind's study of classical neurological cases such as Dejerine's as well as his own clinical work provided the basis for his 1965 monograph on the disconnection syndrome—the clinical consequences of the destruction of fibers that link functional units of the brain. Important, too, was Roger Sperry's report in the 1950s that the severing of the corpus callosum in animal brains caused behavioral changes. In his paper Geschwind concluded that, in both higher animals and human beings, sensory information—from sight, sound, smell, and touch—is initially processed in the primary sensory areas of the brain. The information is then relayed to neighboring brain regions known as association areas. In higher animals, but not in human beings, the information then goes from the association areas to the limbic system of the brain—a structure that activates emotional responses such as "fight, flight, and sexual approach." The sight of a snake will therefore cause a monkey to flee. If for some reason the connections between the visual areas of the monkey's brain and the limbic system are broken, or disconnected, the monkey will fail to respond when seeing a snake. However, this disconnection will not prevent it from fleeing should it touch the snake, assuming, of course, that the touch connections are intact. For subhuman mammals, each form of sensory information has relatively direct connections to the limbic system, permitting "recognition" and consequent limbic reaction using visual, tactile, or auditory information. There is little mixing of sensory information in animal brains.
In human brains this is not true: information received through the senses passes from the primary sensory regions to the association areas, as in the higher animals, but the limbic system is circumvented. Instead, nerve fibers pass sensory information to a secondary association area (which includes the language centers)—"the association area of association areas." This frees human beings from domination by limbic system responses. Instead of the direct connections between auditory or visual information and limbic responses that are characteristic of animals, human beings have powerful associations between visual and auditory sensations as well as between the tactile and the auditory, the tactile and the visual, etc. All these associations take place in the secondary association areas. Geschwind called them "cross-modal" associations. As he wrote: "In sub-human forms the only readily established sensory-sensory associations are those between a non-limbic (i.e. visual, tactile or auditory) stimulus and a limbic stimulus [fight, flight, or sexual response]. It is only in man that associations between two non-limbic stimuli are readily formed.4
These associations, Geschwind argued, give human beings the capacity for speech. "The ability to acquire speech," he wrote, "has as a prerequisite the ability to form cross-modal associations." In his 1965 paper, he claimed that language was a consequence of the association of two or more kinds of sensory information, for example, the association of the spoken word "dog" with the visual image of a dog. A disconnection between the visual cortex and the limbic system in the monkey explains why it fails to respond to the sight of a snake (though it certainly sees the snake); the disconnection between the visual cortex and the language centers of Broca and Wernicke in Dejerine's patient destroyed his ability to read—though he could see the written words, he could not read them with his eyes. But he could still "read" by using his sense of touch, which was not disconnected from the language centers.

Geschwind appears to have misread Dejerine's paper and therefore gave a different analysis of the case in his disconnection syndrome paper. But the basic idea that attracted him, that visual information fails to reach the language centers, remains the same as in the above description. For a discussion of these discrepancies and further clinical evidence see A.R. Damasio and H. Damasio, "The Anatomic Basis of Pure Alexia," Neurology (December 1983), pp. 1573–1582.
Thefirst known record of a case like Dejerine's was in 1673. A similar but considerably more complicated case is found in The Man with the Shattered World by A.R. Luria, the great Russian neuro-psychologist. Here is his patient's description of his discovery that he could no longer read following a war injury:
I went into the hall to look for a bathroom I'd been told was next door. I went up to the room and looked at the sign on the door. But no matter how long I stared at it and examined the letters, I couldn't read a thing. Some peculiar foreign letters were printed there—what bothered me most was that they weren't Russian. When a patient passed by, I pointed to the sign and asked him what it was. "It's the men's room," he replied. "What's the matter with you can't you read?"
He eventually learned to decipher written material "letter by letter, syllable by syllable, word by word." He had virtually no difficulty learning to write normally.↩
At a memorial symposium on Geschwind's work at Harvard on May 30, 1985, M. Mishkin noted that recent work indicates that Geschwind may have slightly underestimated the amount of cross-modal association in higher animals.↩

Mike Murphy, WSDOT communications, 206-440-4699 (Seattle) Aleta Borschowa, WSDOT project engineer, 206-768-5862 (Seattle)
FEDERAL WAY – Sometimes the best way to avoid a traffic jam is to fly over it. That's exactly what drivers will do in Federal Way once two new elevated ramps open between Interstate 5 and State Route 18. The first flyover ramp will open Monday afternoon, July 16, and the second ramp will open Monday, July 23. The aptly-named flyover ramps take vehicles directly from one highway to the other -- a seamless transition that eliminates merging and lane changing at different speeds. One ramp takes vehicles from westbound SR 18 to southbound I-5, while the other takes vehicles from eastbound SR 18 to northbound I-5. "This is a very busy interchange with semi-trucks, box trucks, minivans and passenger vehicles all jockeying for position, trying to navigate through signals and then rapidly getting up to freeway speed," said Aleta Borschowa, Washington State Department of Transportation project engineer. "This new interchange gives drivers enough sight distance and acceleration space to enter the highway safely." The ramps are opening six months ahead of schedule. "The project moves people and commerce," said Federal Way Mayor Skip Priest, "and that mobility strengthens economic growth and quality of life for Federal Way." The new ramps are the cornerstone of a $112 million project at the I-5/SR 18/State Route 161 interchange that also rebuilt ramps from eastbound SR 18 to southbound I-5 and ramps to SR 161. Drivers will start using the new ramp from eastbound SR 18 to northbound I-5 on Monday, July 23. The ramp from SR 18 to SR 161 is expected to open in October. The area is a key corridor for Pacific Northwest businesses such as Wild Waves and Weyerhaeuser, and for trucks hauling freight to and from the Kent/Auburn industrial complex to points north, south and west. "This area has always been a nightmare for us," said Stan Vander Pol, Peninsula Truck Lines president. "It's not just one industry. Our truckers haul everything from tires to tables to tea. We all want get on the road and work." The contractors played a critical role in the pace of the project. Bellevue-based Northwest Construction kept the project sustainable by limiting the number of trips crews had to make off-site and reusing materials. These crews laid the groundwork for Woodinville-based Mowat Construction to build and open the ramps six months ahead of schedule. "These ramps went up so fast, commuters told us it was like watching a real-life time lapse," said Lorena Eng, WSDOT regional administrator. Though the ramps went up quickly, the financial groundwork was years in the making, according to Rep. Adam Smith, D-Tacoma. Sen. Tracey Eide, D- Federal Way, who helped cut the ribbon at the July 16 ramp opening, agreed that the new ramps are a valuable investment for King County drivers. "Not only will these ramps help reduce congestion on I-5, they represent the efforts of a bipartisan collaboration among all levels of government to achieve substantive progress for south King County residents," Eide said. This project was paid for by the 2003 and 2005 state gas-tax funding packages and by federal funds. Future plans for the I-5/SR 18/SR 161 interchange include two new ramps.

COM fire academy grad sets record
Posted on: June 17, 2013
From left, academy director Danny McLerran; Justin Napoli; Stan Kozlowski, instructor and Port of Houston Fire Department senior captain; and Sam Scott, instructor and Missouri City Fire Department lieutenant.
At the spring graduation ceremony, Justin Napoli, of League City, became the first student in the College of the Mainland Fire Academy's history to win simultaneously the Top Rung Award, President's Award and Academic Honors Award. He earned the Top Rung Award for excelling in skills and leadership, the President's Award for serving as class president and the Academic Honors Award for earning the highest average in the class.
"He's a class leader," said academy director Danny McLerran. "He's an exceptional student, completing commission-required skills and physical skills."
Napoli excelled in the classroom and on the training field and helped motivate and coordinate classroom activities with other students as class president.
"I just told myself I wasn't going to slack off," said Napoli.
After working as a paramedic for seven years, Napoli was hired by the Texas City Fire Department, which arranged for his training at COM. The rigorous academy prepared him for challenges on the job.
"The academy put being in good shape back in my grasp," he said. "They gave me all the tools I need."
Now working as firefighter for the department, he feels he has found his calling.
"Knowing this is the job I was meant to do was rewarding," Napoli said. "No other job I've had has this camaraderie. I feel like I'm part of a brotherhood."
In addition, COM graduate Andrew Kraft, of Dickinson, was selected by the instructors to receive the Fire Academy Instructors Award for outstanding performance and professionalism. The volunteer with the Dickinson Fire Department came to COM because of its reputation for thorough training.
"I heard it was supposed to be the best fire academy in the area, and I'd been through some training with the instructors. They were all good," he said.
Napoli, Kraft and the 9 other spring graduates passed the state certification exam, continuing the 100 percent pass rate the COM Academy has held for the last three years. In addition, COM Fire Academy students Mathew Fuentes of the Houston Fire Department and Thomas Williams of the Texas City Fire Department passed the Fire Officer I and II certification exams.

HOUSTON - Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson ran into some trouble in Houston early Saturday morning. He was arrested for resisting arrest by the Houston Police Department, who confirmed to CBSSports.com the identity of the Vikings player.
According to the HPD's website, Adrian Lewis Peterson (born March 21, 1985) was arrested for "resisting arrest/search" and booked on $1,000 bond.
Peterson was charged with resisting arrest (the HPD did not have any further information as to why Peterson was arrested) and released at 10 a.m. local time on Saturday on $1,000 bond.
"We are aware of the situation," the Vikings said in a statement to CBSSports.com. We will withhold further comment until more information is known."
It's obviously too early to pass any judgment on Peterson for the arrest. However, it sounds like there could be concrete details of the incident revealed: Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk reports that "the incident culminating in Peterson's arrest was captured by one or more surveillance cameras."
Florio reports that Peterson was with his girlfriend and some family members at a Houston nightclub.
"Peterson wanted to get some water before he left, but an officer told Peterson that he needed to leave," Florio writes per a source. "Some words apparently were exchanged, but Peterson eventually walked to the exit with one of the club's bouncers."
According to Florio, "one of the officers then jumped on Peterson's back from behind and tried to take him down." It reportedly took several more police officers to actually arrest Peterson.
The Vikings running back has spent the offseason working to come back from a gruesome knee injury he suffered in Week 17 of the 2011 season. He's said he'd be "very surprised" if he wasn't ready by Week 1 of the 2012 season and was recently outrunning teammates up hills, just five months removed from knee surgery.

Holy "Schmidt"! That last name has become a go-to for TV and film writers looking to give their characters a memorable moniker.
Netflix made headlines last week when it picked up two seasons of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, the sitcom starring Ellie Kemper as a former cult member navigating the big city. NBC was originally set to launch the new comedy, from 30 Rock exec producers Tina Fey and Robert Carlock, but the Netflix deal was too good to pass up (and saved NBC the expense of trying to launch the new show in this sitcom-challenged era).
Adam Levine is officially off the market.
The Voice judge and Maroon 5 singer married Victoria's Secret modelBehati Prinsloo in Los Cabos, Mexico on Saturday night, Us Weekly reports.
22 Jump Street knocked out the box office competition, grossing $60 million in its opening weekend, according to Box Office Mojo.
The sequel to the 2012 film, starring Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum, nearly doubled the original's box office debut. Both movies are based on the '90s TV series that starred Johnny Depp.
Coming in the No. 2 spot was another sequel, How to Train Your Dragon 2. The Dreamworks animated movie made $50 million in its first weekend.
Brad Pitt shares what it is like to work with Jonah Hill.
What parents need to know before their kids see Evan Almighty.
A group of young looking undercover police officers infiltrate high school to control crime.
More Clips & Interviews
'Everything is Awesome' about this hilarious animated tale that was one of the biggest box office hits of 2014! Emmet (voice of Chris Pratt) is a plain old Lego figure who is content to build straight from the manuals...until he finds the 'Piece of Resistance.' Marked as a savior who will save the city from its evil ruler, Emmet leads a screwball team on the ultimate quest.
The first-ever full-length theatrical LEGO movie follows Emmet, an ordinary, rules-following, perfectly average LEGO mini figure who is mistakenly identified as the most extraordinary person and the key to saving the world. He is drafted into a fellowship of strangers on an epic quest to stop an evil tyrant, a journey for which Emmet is hopelessly and hilariously underprepared.
After making their way through high school (twice), big changes are in store for officers Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) when they go deep undercover at a local college. But when Jenko meets a kindred spirit on the football team, and Schmidt infiltrates the bohemian art major scene, they begin to question their partnership. Now they don't have to just crack the case - they have to figure out if they can have a mature relationship. If these two overgrown adolescents can grow from freshmen into real men, college might be the best thing that ever happened to them.
Ends 01/31/15. 'Everything is Awesome' about this hilarious animated tale that was one of the biggest box office hits of 2014!

Jonah Hill has apologized for using a homophobic slur, calling it "disgusting."
Over the weekend, TMZ posted a video of the Oscar-nominated actor lashing out at a paparazzo, saying, "Suck my d---, you f----." Following the confrontation, Hill went on Howard Stern's radio show Tuesday to apologize.
Good to know I'm not the only one who needs pizza to make it through a long night at the Oscars.
With Ellen DeGeneres serving up laughs along with slices, disarming the starry crowd with stunts like a pizza delivery for the starving captive audience and a Superstar Selfie that temporarily broke Twitter (and during the taking of which Meryl Streep delightfully blurted, "I've never tweeted before!"), even the Oscars' inevitable dull patches felt less painful than usual.
Sunday marked Ellen DeGeneres' sophomore outing as host of the Academy Awards, and the typically tame comedienne offered up some jokes that were more barbed than usual during her opening monologue.
In her intro to the show, DeGeneres took jabs at everyone from June Squibb to Jennifer Lawrence.

Third time's a charm?
Jonah Hill returned to Saturday Night Live this weekend to host the show for the third time, and his opening monologue featured a hilarious cameo from his Wolf of Wall Street co-star (and, apparently, mentor) Leonardo DiCaprio.
Other highlights from the episode included a couple of sketches about the upcoming Winter Olympics in Sochi, and the much-welcomed return of Vanessa Bayer and Cecily Strong's former porn stars-turned-infomercial representatives. Check out some of the night's best segments below:

Dolfin Men's Water Short 14 14
This product has great features These are the best swimming trunks I've ever worn. December 15, 2014
Good fit/ Good price Easy to order on line. Quick delivery. Trunks fit well and are compatible with indoor pool swimming November 17, 2014
Great swim short Not to long, not to short, just right and fits great. I will buy more of these same swim shorts in different colors because they fit so well. September 10, 2014
Great Value Wouldn't hesitate to purchase Dolfin Men's Water Shorts again. Purchased two pair and I am well satisfied with their quality and fit. September 4, 2014
Light weight These swim shorts are nice material, good looking and lightweight. October 26, 2013
Inexpensive Product fits well through the waist and is true to size, but be warned that the legs are VERY wide July 25, 2013
Nice Fit But Weak Material I like the fit of this short and the elastic around the waist is of good quality, unlike so many that eventually stretch and lose their elasticity. The material, however, faded pretty quickly, which was not a real problem for me. Mine ripped below the pocket on the outside of the seams without much pressure applied to the material. I had only used the shorts for three months, but I do swim every weekday morning. I plan to buy another pair to see if mine might have been defective because I really like the size and style of the fit, and the good elastic. If my next pair rip, I will be looking for another brand. November 12, 2012
I would buy this product again I don't swim so I use these for just around the house. Like the deep pockets,no stadic which is the best part . I'm tall so I had to get the next size bigger so they fit better but if I just used them for swimming I would go with my regular size. October 10, 2012
Awesome These pants dry quickly. Don't feel them dragging in the water. Comfortable inner mesh. Exactly what I wanted. Wear mine during my pool workouts. February 15, 2012
Nice except for the sizing The swim trunks I currently have are medium and just a little too big. After reading the comments about these shorts being sized a little smaller than normal I thought they would be just right. Instead they were a little too small. They were nicely made and I was happy that they have a true drawstring waist instead of just a tie in the front, but they were just too small to be comfortable. I'm sure the large would be too big so I returned them. [...] September 2, 2011

My son loves sushi and this sweet sushi turned out so delectable! Delicious recipes are meant to be shared:I used round foam pillows for the front and back and one rectangular piece for the middle. I cut openings for the head and arms. Next, I wrapped each piece of rice (foam) in seaweed (black fabric) and sew all three pieces together by hand.
