February 1st, 2011 By Pedro FernandezRESPECT THE GENIUS OF MASTER BOB!
San Francisco, CA- With Showtime figuratively cutting off the corporate testicles of HBO by snatching Manny Pacquiao away from them for a May 7 fight with Shane Mosley, where does that leave HBO Sports boss Ross Greenburg? It should put him in the unemployment line! Since he took over circa 2000 for a genius of a man Seth Abraham, Ross has done some of the greatest baseball and sports specials in history. But his failings with his boxing productions are so blatant that it would appear to some that HBO was looking to dump boxing, thus instead of doing something about the leak in the HBO ship, the suits instead seemingly got together and drilled more holes in order to accelerate the sinking!
Look, Bob Arum, like us all has limits. When HBO signed that "exclusive" contract with Golden Boy Promotions, they threw monkey dung in the face the Top Rank CEO. Not the silent type, Arum bitched and moaned to no avail. I thought the deal was bad for boxing, much like the pact Don King had with Showtime and the late Jay Larkin. Those fights were so bad, the vast majority being one-sided mismatches so hideous you didn't even bother to watch. This preceded Larkin's departure and Showtime's boxing rebirth. After the Al Heyman "Bat-phone" was installed on HBO Sports VP Kerry Davis' desk, the most powerful and influential promoter of the past 50 years, Bob Arum was kicked to the curb.
One of the reasons Arum went with those sometimes not so thrilling Latin Fury PPV cards was that Top Rank couldn't get their fighters on YouTube let alone HBO. Now with Showtime PPV airing Pacman-Mosley and CBS showing the fight delayed to 115,000,000 million potential viewers, this is the best thing to happen to boxing since the Gillette "Friday Night Fights."
Outside of middleweight (160 lbs.) champion Sergio Martinez, HBO has little "superstar" boxing talent. Don't understand why they (HBO) would even waste TV time with pretenders like Andre Berto. Could it be a relationship with Al "10 Points" Heyman. Nonito Donaire and Fernando Montiel headline the best HBO Boxing After Dark fight of the new century on February 19. Outside of that, they don't have much.
Paying the aforementioned Andre Berto or Chad Dawson $1 million US to fight is absurd. Berto has never shown us anything "special" and Dawson, well.Larry Merchant said tbhat, "If Chad Dawson is one of the best fighters in the world, then I'm Edward R. Murrow, quite possibly the greatest TV newsman of all time.
HBO has relationships with several networks. They need to start airing good fights on TNT, Spike TV, Bravo, etc. to try and counter Showtime & CBS. In closing, the building that houses HBO is located at 1100 Ave of The Americas. Unfortunately for Home Box Office, there is only one Elvis Presley in boxing, and Elvis (Manny Pacquiao) has left the building!
Pedro Fernandez
Whether you are a Pac man fan or not, you have to give the man his props. Arum has the biggest name in Boxing (yeah, I said it and I'm not even a big Pac Fan) and therefore has the leverage to be able to tell HBO "and now, the end is near and so I face the Final curtain" (you guys know the rest, lol)…Manny has certainly transcended the sport and yes is able to put "asses in the seats." Wonder what that other guy (Floyd something, or whatever)is thinking about Manny being accepted Globally now as the 'Face of Boxing?' Well, at least that other guy can be accepted as the 'Face of a Domestic Violence Abuser.' …Peace.
Maybe Floyd will fight now since Manny is on Showtime.I mean if the PPV does well and the cbs rating are through the roof why would Manny go back to HBO with all the potential exposure from CBS.How can Floyd have any real leeway in negotations now.The best thing we can look forward to now is Mayweather vs Bradley and Im putting money on "Tankhead" to cut Floyd before the 6th round!
Pedro, if I were Arum, I'll give to you the front row ringside press seat which id usually occupied by Kevin Iole's ass. Boxing writers are free to say whatever they like -no problem with that-, but if a writer trashes a fight and calls it "GARBAGE" and tells everyone to 'BOYCOTT" this fight, the writer himself should "DECLINE WATCHING THIS FIGHT" and do whatever he preaches. But I'm sure Iole is just a plain stupid hypocrite and lacks integrity and come fight day, he'll be the first standing in line at the MGM doors. Pedro, you're much more deserving to be given Iole's ringside press seat.
Boxing is all about matchmaking and HBO's fights, and most of Showtime's fights, have sucked for at least five years. Ocassionally you get a good one, like Katsidis-Marquez, or Martinez-Pavlik, but the majority of the match-ups are boring and far, far inferior to the old Boxing After Dark days, when there was some really consistently exciting matchmaking.
I actually don't even subscribe to either channel anymore. Their programing was terrible. I had them both only for the boxing but there was so rarely a good fight on I couldn't justify keeping it any more.
HBO has no one to blame but themselves. Showtime has been able to deliver quality boxing at a fraction of the cost. I'll be surprised if Ross Greenburg and Kery Davis keep their jobs through 2011.
It'll be interesting to see what the PPV figures are for this exhibition match. Pacquiao is clearly an "event" fighter now–selling 16,000 tickets in three hours is a neat trick, even if many went to scalpers as an "investment." (I read $!,000 tickets are going for 8 times their face value in the Philippines.)
Nick,If you haven't had HBO or Showtime how do you know their programming sucks? Dexter is a pretty good show as was Entourage.Also Showtimes fights, when you consider their lower budget is superior to HBO and their Showbox series has competitive bouts with undefeated prospects a lot of the time. HBO is the king of showcasing fighters who they are trying to build. Thats why they give guys like Chad Dawson a pass and let him fight guys like Tarver for millions. I understand why you don't subscribe anymore, but i think you need to give Showtime a little more credit, but I agree about HBO. Don't forget, Showtime gave us all three Vasquez Marquez bouts and Castill vs Corrales, as well as Dawson Hopkins, and the Super Six all for Free.Not bad for a network with about a 3rd of the budget of HBO.If you like MMA, Strikeforce isn't so bad either.
Mosley is the perfect foil here. He will look like a real fighter to the 100 million or so around the world; still looks fit, will throw a few nice combinations early, won't look for a soft place to lie down when Manny inevitably overwhelms him. The big problem will be the damage that gets done to him, but given Manny's late-round "mercy" to Margarito, even that should be kept to a minimum. Let's just hope Sugar Shane can invest this late-career windfall well and get the hell out while he can still tie his shoelaces.
The fools running HBO Sports are out of touch with their audience. Pacquiao leaving for Showtime must be a wake up call for HBO to fire Kerry Davis and Ross Greenburg. Their house fighters Dawson and Berto do not entertain, never justified the inflated purses HBO has given them, and are fighters whose management exploited Davis and Ross' incompetance. Replace Davis and Ross with people who know what boxing fans want.
The downside of all of this is that Manny Pacquiao's days of making compelling fights are probably over, or at least on hold, as he will be serving the role of Boxings Ambassador & Messiah instead of a functioning champion. Having hitched the fortunes of the sport, Showtime and CBS to one man, his next couple of years can be expected to consist of glorified exhibition (mis)matches.
Having said that, the May event suddenly looks OK – I'd take even a 70 year-old Mosley coming off hip replacement surgery over Bradley or Alexander – as someone who called for the younger guard to get a shot, I can admit I was foolish and will take good care to avoid that tick bitting me again any time soon.
Ten ur wrong. U have to let the young guys get a chance. To keep the sport alive. That's the problem with boxing old farts keep getting the big fights. I'll say this about Bighead Bradley, he comes to fight. Alexander bitched out. Bradley came forward the whole time trying to press the action. And don't get fooled looks can be deceiving. Just because he doesn't look spectacular. Doesn't mean he can't fight. He is a 3 time champ beat past champs and gone up in weight and won. He's still unbeaten. If he was a football player I'd say he is rothleberger don't look great but wins. U can never count out a winner!!!!! Also I've seen him take huge shots get back up and win. Great chin and heart will get u far
pacman and arum are here to bring boxing back to the masses. pacman is just a TOOL to save the sport…a sport that floyd is trying to kill with his antics.
what about GBP and HBO? what have they done to the sport? what have they done to themselves?
how about fraud money may? what have he done to the sport? what have he done to himself?
I agree with Robert. If anyone deserves a shot with Manny, it's headbutt Bradley. In some ways they have the same qualities the crowd loves watching. The problem is, he isn't marketed properly or his handlers just wish to ride on his winning ways with minimum investment until he hits the jackpot.
Tim "Head Butt King" Bradley and Devon 'Marathon Man" Alexander should be in dancing with the stars! These slicked inner city AA are just plain …Boo..ring! Pacman will keep the fans entertained before knocking these guys ass!And Kevin Lole who touted the fight of the year between headbutt King and Marathon Man should not be given a free pass to all Pacman's fight!
wonder if hbo can have valuable matches to offer until pacman retires.they still have to wait 3 years and that's a very long time for them to be able to survive.i wish them luck.sayonara!hasta la vista!goodbye!hbo.
Roberto Rios, you can let the young guys get a chance but not against Pacman. He would eat those 2 alive and people will suddenly cry mismatch and that Bradley is too green. Ok, he is a lot better than Berto who is just a protected fighter and champ who really hasn't faced CLASS A boxers at his own weight. Bradley did, to his credit, but will really be good against Khan.
If I were to schedule Tim "The Head" Bradley, i'd pit him next against Khan while Maidana gets a shot at Alexander. The winner of those two will then tussle and get the undisputed junior welterweight king. Next stop is at Welter for Andre Berto. Then Cotto/Mosley and finally Pac.
I'm pretty sure Bradley won't win against an ageing Mosley. Much more against what they call "damaged" Cotto. Miguel Cotto, damaged or not, will meet Bradley's head with his fists and keep him nailed to the ground for good measure.
My point is that… Bradley is good at Jr Welter but will NOT DO WELL at Welter. Berto is protected and is just a hype job, nothing else.
with pacman on showtime and floyd on hbo. then pacman vs floyd is the biggest story in the world of sports all time. let us just wait and see… nice move bob!!!
HBO fools didnt see this coming, they thought arum wouldnt dare, well theyre WRONG. Golden girl better do more.
Arum is indeed a genius of what he is "a league of his own" way in boxing promotion.He can enlighten even the boxing hardcore into believing his logic in decision making and work done.The best part ,he is correct and all the Pacquiao's fights were satisfying to watch and to simply say "got the money's worth" for those who paid in order to enjoy the fight.Any great boxing match doesn't die down easily in everyone's mind,in the contrary it creates a never ending perceive scenario until the next fightmatch comes to know if the're right in thinking about it.
Write normally Elyctrify and repost both. The all caps aren't cool. Thanks!
James, repost but NOT in all caps. Thanks, Pedro

Location & area
After two weeks of visiting 40 villages throughout the Laungedoc, we fell in love with Fitou. Fitou's mild temperatures and sun-filled days (300 days of sunshine a year)--even in the winter months--make it a favorite year-round holiday destination.
Fitou is a traditional French/Catalan village, with friendly, welcoming locals, in the heart of France's largest wine growing region and the local wines are abundant and delicious. Fresh local produce such as olives, olive oil, cheeses, fresh herbs, bread and fish are available at numerous markets, including the splendid Les Halles in Narbonne. This is a must for wine and food lovers.
The neighbouring area has several excellent beaches and is ideal for watersports including windsurfing, kayaking, kite surfing, white water rafting, and snorkelling and there's a wake board park. There are also designated cycling routes and excellent walks. And good fishing areas.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

In 2013 they released their fifth album Bankrupt!.

Formed in 2004 and currently signed to the Fader Label, they released their self-titled debut album in October 2006 and their second album, Grand, was released in January 2009.

Five Trades That Will Have the Most Impact on the Major League Baseball Playoffs
Major League Baseball's trade deadline has come and gone, which means it's time to dust off the infield dirt and see which moves could have a significant effect on those teams eyeing deep October runs. Here's a look at five of them:
Perhaps no team read this year's trade market better than the Rangers. Texas general manager Jon Daniels was focused on one thing leading up to July 31 — improve the pitching staff. With few rotation arms available at a reasonable cost, Daniels turned his attention to solidifying a bullpen that unraveled in the Rangers World Series' loss to San Francisco last year.

Is it really "snow" as we've come to know it, or some kind of dropped from the sky, chemtrail substance being used for mind control? Two videos today: first the original conspiracy video, then an explanation from some "scientist" guy . . . who's probably a paid government stooge.
Watch both and decide for yourself. Unless, of course, you mind is already under Obama's control then, uh, never mind.
From the YouTube description in the first video:
Snow that burns and turns black like styrofoam? Yep, definitely normal..
This is from the follow-up video by Dave at BadAstronomy.com:
Published on Feb 4, 2014 I've seen some bizarre conspiracy theories in my time, but this may be the plain old weirdest: The snow that paralyzed Atlanta, Georgia in January of 2014 wa. Take responsibility people. I was inspired to make this video because of all the videos claiming that our snow and air is filled with chemicals from chemtrails and therefore won't melt.. So everyone is making a bunch of noise about snow being fake and containing nanites so I figured I'd see if our snow in WI was a fake too. Snow doesn't melt? Snow not melting , mass, snow.

Motion-controlled MP3 player doesn't need any pesky buttons

From Japan comes this curious cube-shaped MP3 player, which is entirely motion-controlled. It's actually very clever, even if it does seem to do away with the portable aspects of an MP3 player. Tip it and tap it to advance or go back through your music, and flip it face-down to stop play all together.
From the designer:
The MP3 player does not have any buttons nor dials... and it has an acceleration sensor instead of the mechanical switches. Therefore all playback commands to the player are given in defined motions, such as inclination, tilt and shock. The player detects the motion with the built-in acceleration sensor and recognize it as a playback control command.The thinking behind it is probably a little too outside-the-box to ever be a fully realized product, but it's an interesting concept, and one that's already making it into some other gadgets. The iPhone, for instance, has several apps that take advantage of a firm shake — whether to access a random song, or find you a place to eat. Check out the video above to see the motion control in action.

Are you researching Nerium skin care? Well your search is over. This blog post, in fact, this whole blog is dedicated to the breakthrough, anti-aging science of Nerium.
In this post, you will learn about how NeriumAD came to be, as well as other resources to show you how remarkable this product is and how you can experience the results for yourself.
It will make you look younger and therefore feel more confident. Behold this warning though, your friends will be jealous! Some many people are experiencing the results and there is no reason for you not to.
Nerium Skin Care – Beginnings
Nerium skin care came about from the Nerium Oleander plant. Here is how wikipedia defines the plant:
"Nerium oleander is an evergreen shrub or small tree in the dogbane family Apocynaceae, toxic in all its parts. It is the only speciescurrently classified in the genus Nerium.
It is most commonly known as oleander, from its superficial resemblance to the unrelated oliveOlea. It is so widely cultivated that no precise region of origin has been identified, though southwest Asia has been suggested.
The ancient city of Volubilis in Morocco took its name from the old Latin name for the flower. Oleander is one of the most poisonous of commonly grown garden plants."
Few years ago, Nerium Biotechnology, Inc® was conducting advanced biomedical research and their test patients reported improvement in their skin.
This lead to the creation of Nerium SkinCare, which is a division of the main company.
That is where they refined the science of using the Nerium Oleander plant to create the breakthrough anti-aging product NeriumAD.
Nerium Skin Care – Formulation For Multiple Concerns
NeriumAD is formulated to address multiple concerns and help improve the appearance of:
- Fine lines & wrinkles
- Discoloration
- Uneven Skin Texture
- Enlarged Pores
- Aging Or Loose Skin
Concerns might arise about the safety of using this product. This is ok because most of us read some information on the internet and draw conclusions (many time incorrectly) about certain products.
There is a whole section about the safety of Nerium skin care addressed by highly reputable doctors and toxicologists. You can read and watch what they say on this page.
Here is a small expert from the doctors:
"Nerium oleander (used in NeriumAD), which is often mistaken for a different plant called Thevetia peruviana (referred to as yellow oleander).
This yellow-flowered plant is responsible for a large number of toxic reports and is often confused as oleander in a generic sense. So when you hear "Nerium oleander," you may confuse it with a plant that has a much more poisonous, toxic reputation, when it actually is not poisonous."
Results That Speak For Themselves
With the nerium skin care products being used by thousands of customers, the results are what speak for themselves. People are having success stories with this product all the time. And if you are not, then you are missing out because you truly can experience this.
Here are some pictures, and you can find more on this page.

Tan, H. S. and Sloss, V. and M. R., Jainudeen (1982) Plasma progesterone levels following cloprostenol treatment in bovine fetal mummification. In: First Asian-Australasian Animal Science Congress, 2-5 September 1980, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science, Universiti Pertanian Malaysia.
Restricted to Repository staff only
Progesterone levels before and after cloprostenol (a synthetic analogue of prostaglandin F 2α) treatment for termination of pregnancy complicated by fetal mummification were studied in three imported Jersey heifers. A marked decline in plasma progesterone level was observed within 24 hours after treatment in all cases but cervical dilation did not commence until 48 hours after treatment and was complete within 96 hours. In Cow No. 1, progesterone levels dropped from 6.5 ng/ml before treatment to 1.5, 0.8 and 0.5 ng/ml at 1, 2 and 3 days after teratment. In Cow No.2, daily pre-treatment values ranged from 4.5 to 7.8 ng.ml but were 2.8, 2.0, 1.4 and 0.6 ng/ml for the next 4 days after treatment. In Cow No.3, daily pre-treatment values ranged from 6.8 to 14.7 ng/ml, falling to 1.5, 1.8 and 0.3 ng/ml at 1, 2 and 3 days post-treatment, respectively. Hourly samplings indicated that the decline was most rapid during the first 12 hours after treatment, reaching undetectable levels by the 4th or 5th day. In Cow No.1, the fetal size suggested a 4-month pregnancy while in Cows No.2 and No.3, the fetuses were approximately 6 to 7 months of age.

Another Game 7 brought another big night for Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist.
New York was outshot 36-20 by the Pittsburgh Penguins in the deciding game of their second-round series, but Lundqvist stopped 35 of those 36 Pittsburgh shots, and goals from Brian Boyle and Brad Richards were enough to lead the Rangers to a 2-1 win Tuesday night.
It was the fifth straight Game 7 victory for Lundqvist and the Rangers, dating back to the first round in 2012. New York also needed seven games to eliminate the Philadelphia Flyers in their first-round series this year.
The Rangers fell behind 3 games to 1 in the series before winning games 5, 6 and 7 to advance. It's the first time in the franchise's 88-year history that they overcame a 3-1 series deficit.
Boyle's goal put the Rangers ahead a little more than five minutes into the first period, and the Rangers took a 1-0 lead into the dressing room after one period.
The Penguins evened the game up on a goal by Jussi Jokinen a little more than four minutes into the second period, but the Rangers would retake the lead a little less than three minutes later on Richards' fourth of the playoffs, which was scored on the powerplay.
Lundqvist made the lead stand up the rest of the way, stopping all 13 shots to face him in the third period.
The fans there were thrilled with the outcome and were confident that the team can go even further.
"Great game played by everybody," said one fan at the bar. "Holy moly. Wow."
"Oh my God, Lundqvist brought it the entire night," said another fan. "It was an amazing game."
"Montreal, Boston, you got no chance. I hope you saw what happened tonight. Lundqvist is shutting you down," said a third fan, who also said that Boston can stay there and "eat chowdah."
The win sends New York to the conference finals for the second time in three years, where they will play the winner of the second-round series between the Boston Bruins and Montreal Canadiens. A decisive Game 7 in that series will take place Wednesday night.

Really considering this and have questions
Hello! :) Okay, my story is I lost most of my weight with low carb and had a hard time maintaining but kept off 70 lbs since I started in 2005. I decided to try hcg in January and lost great with it. I went back to a low carb diet hoping that hcg was the cure to fix my metabolism (I have PCOS and Hashimoto's). Sadly, it's not. I'm down almost 100 lbs total and had to buy all new clothes this year again which is great but I want to stay IN them now. I feel my weight creeping up again - nothing big but my clothes don't feel as good as they did. A friend recommended this and I've been thinking I would alternate 500 calorie days (hcg style) with low carb anyway so here I am!
Okay my questions: I stopped eating processed foods and see that they recommend shakes for the first 2 weeks on the down days. I get why they recommend them but I'm not a fan of the shakes at all. I do have one kind that my trainer friend recommends which is at least a little better - it's in powder form and is a meal replacement. Two servings is 414 calories and I could add an apple or a salad with vinegar dressing. Given that I know how to restrict calories to 500 calories because I did 3 rounds of hcg for 9 weeks total of eating 500 cal/day, tell me why shakes are better during the first 2 weeks.
Okay second question: I would be starting on Monday probably or maybe Sunday but I'm in a dance competition in two weeks and will be traveling for the whole weekend and staying in a hotel and dancing probably 6-8 hours/day maybe more, it's intense. I know that I should not eat 500 calories on the down days and dance 6+ hours/day. Since I'd still be in induction, what could I do those days? I could do a down day on the Thursday I drive there but Fri/Sat will be intense. I drive home Sunday after dancing in the morning/afternoon but it won't be intense so I could do a down day then. Ideas?
TIA!! I think this may help me maintain. I'm super strict when it comes to my eating. My body just doesn't always like to cooperate with me.
I'm really new at this and I'm sure that someone with more experience will "weigh in".
For myself personally, I'm into keeping it natural and tried a shake on my first DD only to find that it didn't keep me full for even an hour and actually made me hungry. So, now I just keep it simple with a bit of lower fat meat and lots of vegetables to add up to less than 500cals. I also found for myself that I don't do well hungry at night so I skip breakfast on DDs and leave most of my calories for the evening. I think that shakes and bars were suggested simply to help keep the calories under 500 but, I do better with REAL FOOD.
As for your upcoming dance days ... Some people do a medium day ... Average your UD and DD to equal your MD. When there is something on your schedule that requires higher calories and it will fall on a DD then prepare to make it a MD or even an UD by inserting a MD. For example, DD on Thurs., MD on Fri. and UD on Sat. ... Making Sunday back on track with a DD. I'm not sure how that might effect you in induction but, it is a solution to your needing those calories on a DD.
It's good to have you here and I hope you do well and have lots of fun with your active weekend!
Hi, Jenn! I've watched both your weight loss journey and your increasing involvement in your dance with interest and appreciation over these last years. You are one who just went into taking charge of your life and making it what you wanted it to be, what you wanted to be, what you wanted to do. So, first of all, congratulations on that! :clap:
Truthfully, I think you will thrive on JUDDD. This plan will allow you to keep your calories to whatever level you need to keep them at to lose those few little pounds that have crept back, and then to maintain your loss so that you will remain the size you want to be... but easily and in such a way as to also allow you to play and party and feast with all your friends and family and fellow dance enthusiasts.
You will be able to follow any food plan you feel best on, happiest on, as JUDDD isn't about the food choices, only the overall calories of the days, and in the alternate day rotation schedule of fasting and feasting, Down Day and Up Day... and as important as the low DD is, the abundant UD calories are also important.
It sounds like you want to remain low carb, and you will find many here who do their JUDDD at low carb levels, so you will certainly have company.
As to the shakes, almost NONE of us used them when we began. Not that we can't make and enjoy a shake, which we do sometimes, but that's not the way any of us started out. I mean, to my way of thinking, a shake is a fluid that accompanies a meal! :laugh: So that is up to you. Most of us just started out eating *food* and just weighed and measured and tracked the calories right from day one.. and found success almost instantly.
And truthfully, Jenn.. as to the dance weekend, I'd arrange my feeding schedule leading into it so that I had a DD on Thursday, a full UD on Friday, another full UD on Saturday (which you're not supposed to do.. but Oh, Well..) and I'd do a MD on Sunday, then a really good DD on Monday and continue on from there.
It's not like you have a lot to lose, and you have been very successful previously sticking to 500-calorie days, so I don't think this little interruption in your JUDDD schedule will hurt you at all. :) JUDDD is very forgiving of these little trespasses, so don't worry about it.
Welcome to JUDDD. I expect you to be very successful with this plan and get accomplished what you want and expect! :welcome:
Aw thanks so much!! And thanks Pat for the kind words. I'm excited to start this! I hope it's the thing that makes me maintain! :)
Looks like Lori & Pat took care of your questions so I just wanted to say :welcome: to JUDDD, Jenn!!!! :jumpjoy: :jumpjoy:
Jenn!!! Hey there sweet thing ;) I will be doing this too. I cannot wait to start, but have to finish my latest round first. I sure wish I would have known about this JUDDD thing last year when I reached goal the first time with hcg. I might not need to be on my 9th round of hcg if I had :annoyed::annoyed: :mad::mad: I, for one, will be using the shakes on my down days because I love them and will be very easy to count calories that way. But didn't see anywhere in the book it mentioning you HAD to do the shakes. Was it on a forum you read that???? I know you can do the 500 calories easy with our background of hcg so I would not worry about that at all :D
Tossing in a welcome to an HCG buddy!
I haven't been losing well but I have certainly figured out maintaining on JUDDD (go way over your UD calories will do it).
Glad to have you here. When I finally reach maintenance, I'm thinking I might mix/match Down Days and Correction Days as needed to stay in my range.
Good luck with your dance competition!
:welcome: and looking forward to having you in the JUDDD family!!
I never did the recommended shakes. I KNEW that I couldn't do that, I like to "chew" too much to drink my meals. I started at 700 calories for my DD because I also KNEW I wouldn't stay to the 500, but after the first couple of DDs I did get very close to that 500 calories.
I always suggest that people do what works for THEM and that nothing is written in stone, especially with the JUDDD WOE. So many do what they feel will work for them, staying as close to the guidelines as they feel they can, and most have had wonderful results, me included!
Good luck and hope you find what works for you! :up::clap::shake:
:welcome: to the JUDDD family Tyl!! Good to see you here!! :shake::hugs:

The Promise
Don't Do What Johnny Don't Does
No Angst
Loading characters up with angst was a revolutionary move on the part of Marvel Comics back in the '60s. I haven't looked at a calendar today, but that was four decades ago. There are other emotions and motivations available to characters. ATOMIC ROBO is not a comic that will be 100% sunshine and jokes, but we aren't going to delve into melodrama either. You are not going to see Robo mope about his lack of emotions, or pine to be human, or throw a tantrum over daddy issues.
No Cheesecake
This is nothing more than Scott and I having the audacity to treat women like human beings. I mean, come on, 99 times out of a 100, there is no reason at all to frame a panel from the perspective of a girl's ass. Grow up already.
No Reboots
They're frustrating, unnecessary, and a jarring reminder that all fiction is a thinly veiled series of lies. The major events of Robo's lifetime were plotted years before we worked on the first page of the first issue. Anything Scott and I add to that has to fit organically into the existing framework. If it doesn't fit as naturally as if it'd been there all along, then we skip it and move to the next idea. Everything that happens will fit into the larger mythos; everything that happens will happen for a reason; and nothing that happens can be "undone."
No Filler
This one's pretty simple. Why should we devote a month of our short lives to creating an issue if it isn't worth reading? And then why should we try to sell you an issue that isn't worth buying? The main source of filler issues seems to be due to moving set pieces from the aftermath of one event to set up the next one. Since we have no reason to follow Robo's life as a linear chain of events, we're free to jump straight from one adventure to the next. Maybe Robo fights a sea monster. Maybe we follow the lives of Action Scientists when off duty. But it ain't filler.
The Main Robot Punches A Different Robot (Or Maybe A Monster)
So let's cut out all the dumb stuff that could get in the way of letting you enjoy that.

The weather sucks right now. It's not raining but it's really dark and gloomy outside - and there is this underlying dampness and heaviness in the air. The office is also cold so I am sure that's adding to my discomfort. There is this pressure in my head. UGG!
We did domestic things last night including laundry. The dryer monster got some socks. Is my sister the only one that is never victimized by this monster? She has never even lost any of her kids baby socks! That's talent.
I've looked into this computer so much today that my ***** eyes feel like they are burning. I wish eyesight wasn't affected by age. It is though...one day I forsee not having arms long enough to read things.

Useful Marketing Advice
"I recently attended the California Parks and Recreation Society conference," he wrote. "One of the better seminars I attended was a workshop on master plans and surveys. The workshop instructors conduct master plans and surveys all across the U.S. One of the things they said that stuck with me is the comment that across the country, the number-one barrier to participation in parks and recreation programming is lack of awareness. That comment made me reflect on what we were doing with the ARD Marketing Plan, and reinforced one of our other goals–to create better awareness of ARD programs and facilities."
Another important factor in a marketing plan's success is full understanding and support of the staff. Talking about the ARD plan, Kahl said that, like any other plan, the key is action: "Our staff has really stepped up to ensure that the goals of the plan are met. The employees involved in these efforts include Manouch Shirvanioun, Sheryl Petersen, Debbie Thomas, Pamela Vann, Joe Fecko, Jessica Joyner, and Kristin Tomasovich, as well as Director Jim Ferris. They deserve the credit for our success to this point."
So, there you have it. These are the folks that negate any more excuses for not having a marketing plan. Through the generosity and sharing spirit of the ARD, here's one you can use to form your own. It may not be an exact fit for your circumstances, but it provides a solid foundation upon which to build.
And once you download the information, let us know how it helps you. Contact me or the PRB editor.

Doesn't this look delicious?!!
I just had to share this amazing food experience with you – a couple of weeks ago, I went to Mykonos Greek cafe/restaurant in Highgate. We had been having drinks at the Queen's pub, which is a local watering hole we go to a lot. Mykonos is over the road, so feeling a bit peckish we wandered over to get something casual to eat. WELL, we decided to go the whole hog and have a meze "house special".
As you can see from the photo, it was pretty darn good, and WAY too much for 2 people, which is the advertised serving size. The full menu description is
"An outstanding meal serving 2, begins with a selection of Dips, served with crudités and hot pitta bread for entrée. To follow is a platter of deliciously grilled Seafood, including Prawns, Calamari and Occy on a rice pilaf, together with Chicken, Pork, Lamb and traditional Greek nibbles, accompanied by garden fresh Greek Salad with olives and fetta cheese. Your feast is completed with a complimentary cup of Coffee or Tea & a homemade Filo Pastry sweet (if there's any room!)."
Let me tell you, there was definitely NO room for the filo pastry sweet! – not only that, we couldn't get through the main platter pictured above anyway, especially after the yummy dips/pita bread we had first. Now legally it is a no-no, but they did kindly offer to make us up a "doggie bag", which gave me leftovers for a yummy lunch the next day, plus they allowed us to choose 2 of the pastries to take home as well.
I can see myself using the "oh it's only over the road from the pub, let's go get a snack" excuse again in the near future…..

Tahoe's West Shore is where the mountain rim of the Tahoe basin drops most abruptly to the lake. Along this steep escarpment, strong Pacific storms dump powder in the east-facing bowls—an average of 40 feet each winter.
Only one Tahoe resort sits directly on the West Shore, and it's long been a local favorite. Homewood, five miles south of Tahoe City, has only 1,260 skiable acres, but there's plenty of awesome tree skiing for powderhounds and drop-dead gorgeous lake views for everyone else. From the top of Madden Triple Chair, Lake Tahoe appears like a vast blue sea. Skiers and riders alike pause to mutter the word "Sweet," then pull out their cameras and snap a few memories.
Powder is king here; Homewood sees an average snowfall of 482 inches, even though its summit elevation is only 7,880 feet. If it's a bluebird powder day, you'll have to rise before dawn to beat the locals to fresh tracks.
Very little of the resort is visible from the highway (only one run), so first-timers are always surprised at how much varied terrain is available. The resort offers 60 trails, including a longest run of two miles with a 1,650-foot drop. Trails are serviced by eight lifts, including a high-speed quad installed in 2007 that whisks skiers to the resort's north side in just four minutes.
There's little in the way of amenities at Homewood—no lodging or shops, and only a handful of on-mountain restaurants. This is a skier's mountain, not a ski resort. Most of the chairlifts travel at a mellow pace, so if you are impatient (or if it's freezing cold), you may not be happy here. But for Homewood lovers, the resort's laid-back vibe is part of its charm. And due to its unique location on the West Shore, Homewood is one of the few Tahoe resorts that is almost never subject to wind hold. There hasn't been a wind-related lift closure here in more than a decade.
Children's snowsports programs are a big draw. Homewood's South Lodge is home to the Snow Rangers Academy for kids ages 4 to 12. Starting in 2009-2010, Homewood will offer GPS tracking for kids enrolled in ski and ride camps. Parents can track their child's location on the mountain in real time.
Homewood was recently purchased by the same folks who own Alpine Meadows, and over the next 5-10 years there will be big changes at the resort. A planned village complex of lodging and restaurants is in the works, intended to change Homewood from a commuter's ski resort to one where people will stay and play for a few days, in the same style as Squaw and Northstar. But for now, Homewood is still an old-school, intimate resort, and plenty of skiers like it that way just fine.

Friendship Shelter helps homeless adults achieve self-sufficiency and become more productive members of our community.
Save the Date!
Tickets to the Gala are available online at friendshipsheltergala.org. We hope you will join us on Friday, November 14, 2014 at The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel for an evening of fine dining, lively entertainment, and live and silent auctions. Through your generous support, we can work together to help some of the
most vulnerable men and women in our community realize their
dream of having a HOME.
What's New at Friendship Shelter: Permanent Supportive Housing
Permanent Supportive Housing is a widely-accepted national best-practice in homeless services that greatly reduces the harm homeless people experience through their lives on the street, and significantly reduces the cost of homelessness for our community. We believe that Permanent Supportive Housing is a logical extension of our current work and a way to expand our services to meet our community's growing need.
We recently launched a Scattered-Site Permanent Supportive Housing program in South Orange County and are working with the City of Laguna Beach on a Permanent Supportive Housing proposal. Please visit www.friendsofsupportivehousing.org to read more about our proposal, add your name to the growing list of community supporters, and find the answers to your questions.

About Us
Our Self-Sufficiency Program in Laguna Beach, for which there is always a waiting list, provides a home, three meals daily and a wide range of support services for 32 men and women.
Residents are expected to work, save money and develop skills to rebuild their lives.
In addition to the Self-Sufficiency Program, Friendship Shelter operates an emergency overnight shelter with the City of Laguna Beach, and has established a Permanent Supportive Housing Program. For more information on these, please visit our programs page.
The agency is funded through the generosity of philanthropic individuals, foundations and organizations throughout the area.
Since its inception, more than 10,000 adults have been the recipients of vital services.
Residents come from a broad range of personal and geographical backgrounds. We receive referrals from across Orange County from social workers, church and community organizations, chemical dependency and alcohol recovery programs, mental health agencies, hospitals, and other social services programs.
Anyone may call at any time to determine whether he or she is a candidate and to learn more about the program and procedures for acceptance.

"This is a great cookie - love the icing on the cookie. Tasting the icing without the cookie you would think that it's too lemony, but with the cookie it's great. Will make these again.
"Chicken was really great and very tender. It wasn't as greasy as some fried chicken can me. My niece and I both liked it and will remake."
"These were great. Nice and light, with a tender crust and soft inside. These are as good as my favorite doughnut shop and now I don't have to purchase them any longer. Made them just as the recipe said, except cut them in half -- made 18 doughnuts. Shared with some of my neighbors and they thought they were good also.
Thanks Alton for sharing"
