Jonny is a popular speaker and has offered inspiring advice on weight, health and nutrition to millions of people on iVillage.com and on America Online. He is passionate about debunking traditional and conventional information on health, weight loss and nutrition. He says that Americans try to define the perfect diet in terms of protein, carbs and fat. "The actual quality of the food we eat is probably way more important for our health than the proportions of fats, carbs and proteins," says Jonny.
When he decided to put together a book on foods we should be eating, Jonny asked some of the top experts in the nutrition field including Dr. Stephen Sinatra (cardiovascular disease physician), Dr. Barry Sears (biochemist and author of Omega Zone Diet), Jeff Volek (Men's Health columnist), etc., for their list of Top 10 foods they ate, not just the ones they thought were healthiest. Clear winners include all vegetables. "There are no bad vegetables or fruit," says Jonny. (This doesn't include ketchup, iceberg lettuce or French fries.)
Surprisingly, grains did not make Jonny's top 150 best foods. He believes that cereal grains are not nearly as healthy nor as nutritionally complete as foods that can be hunted, fished for, gathered or plucked. While Jonny doesn't believe grains should be eliminated completely, he says that we should ingest them moderately (Oatmeal and quinoa made the list with brown rice a runner up.) Beans and legumes weren't a slam dunk either. Beans are loaded with fiber, protein and phytochemicals, but they also contain lectins, which are substances that may be partly to blame for rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases. He says if you are part of the small group of people who have unexplained symptoms, it might be worthwhile to avoid beans (Garbanzo beans, lentils and legumes made the cut.) Nuts and nut butters are full of good fats and have powerful health benefits.
Jonny is also not a fan of soy though edamame made the list. Dairy (homogenized milk products) did not get rave reviews but Jonny believes raw, organic milk is one of the healthiest foods on the planet. Free range or organic is always the way to go with poultry and eggs; grass-feed beef.
A caring friend will be there to pray with you in your time of need.

New Zealand fought bravely to move to 157 for four in their second innings, following on and still 247 runs behind South Africa, at the close of the third day's play in the second Test on Sunday.
Unbeaten pair BJ Watling (41) and Dean Brownlie (44) provided stern resistance and the duo looked relatively untroubled as they added an unbroken fifth-wicket partnership of 73 off 27.2 overs to steer their team to the close of play.
Opener Martin Guptill contributed 48 before being bowled by seamer Rory Kleinveldt who went on to have Daniel Flynn (0) caught behind with his next delivery.
Kleinveldt ended the day with two for 31 while left-arm spinner Robin Peterson, who accounted for Brendon McCullum (11) and Kane Williamson (11), claimed two for 29.

The tourists showed far more determination with the bat than they had in their first innings when they subsided to 121 all out in reply to the top-ranked hosts' 525-8 declared.
The morning session had belonged to speedster Dale Steyn, the world's top-ranked bowler, who claimed five for 17 off 13 overs to bundle New Zealand out 30 minutes before lunch, at that stage trailing South Africa by 404 runs.
Watling provided the one shining light for the tourists in their first dig as his battling 63 off 87 balls with 13 fours added some gloss to the innings.
New Zealand began the day on a parlous 47 for six and the pair of Watling and Doug Bracewell (7) added 14 runs to the overnight total before the right-handed Bracewell prodded at a Steyn delivery to send an outside edge through to keeper De Villiers.
Steyn struck again one run later when he trapped the left-handed Neil Wagner (0) leg-before with an in-swinging delivery.
The 29-year-old Steyn was not done yet and in his next over he bowled Jeetan Patel (0) after the batsman backed away from a good length delivery.
Steyn enjoyed a wonderful morning as he claimed his 19th five-wicket haul in Tests as he sent down a spell that produced figures of 5-3-3-3.
Watling and Trent Boult (17 not out) then provided some late resistance with a last-wicket stand that produced 59 runs, a New Zealand record 10th-wicket partnership against South Africa beating the 57 scored by Simon Doull and Richard de Groen scored in Johannesburg during the 1994/95 season.
The aggressive Watling was the last man out, caught at first slip off the bowling of paceman Morne Morkel.
South Africa hold a 1-0 series lead.

Gun permit applications quadruple in Wolfeboro
Police Chief Stuart Chase recently told the Police Commission that the number of pistol/revolver license applications has quadrupled in the first month of 2013, compared with last year's monthly average. In January alone, the department received 48 pistol/revolver permit applications while in an average month the department processes between 10 and 12.
On Wednesday, Chase said the increase in applications translates to more work for officers who do the "footwork" and review the paperwork, but that so far the department is able to comply with the two-week turnaround time required by the state.
Speaking as an individual and not on behalf of the department, Chase said the increase may be a "knee jerk" reaction to the political debate over gun control, and perhaps the perception by some that gun rights will be hindered.
"I think people are afraid their right to have a firearm will be taken away; that's the general fear," he said, adding that many people arm themselves for protection.
Chase, who worked as a police officer in Massachusetts for 35 years, including as a police chief in Danvers, said gun permits are simpler to acquire in New Hampshire than in Massachusetts.
"I worked in Massachusetts for 35 years and the laws on obtaining a license there are prohibitive; here, we are far more in tune with (Second Amendment) legal rights. It's easier to be licensed," he said. "Here, the application is short and sweet."
Not too short, however. He said applicants are subject to a background check, reviewed through the NCIC (National Crime Information Center) database, and are required to provide three references. In some cases, the department may have personal knowledge of the applicant.
"We can rely on our own records, local knowledge and unofficial sources. Generally, in a community this size, it's not difficult to make a determination as to suitability," he added.
The pistol/revolver permit asks whether the applicant has been convicted of a felony; is a user or addicted to any controlled substance; has ever been deemed mentally defective by a court or committed to a mental institution; and whether the applicant has been convicted in any court of a misdemeanor of domestic violence. The last question asks why the applicant wants to carry a pistol in New Hampshire.
The license fee is $10 for residents, and $100 for non-residents. The license is required to carry a loaded pistol or revolver in a motor vehicle or to carry a concealed loaded pistol or revolver.

Dear Yahoo! CEO: Don't Mind Wall Street, It's Full of Chauvinist Pigs
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- For better or worse, men dominate Wall Street. They dominate business. And the ethos of their culture sets the mood for corporate America.
When a man takes a job as CEO, his personal life rarely comes up. And, when it does, it's rarely a factor.
Consider Marc Hurd. He apparently pigged out (a 2010 NY Times story reports on his alleged transgressions) while CEO at Hewlett Packard (HPQ), but landed firmly on his feet as a top executive and board member at Oracle (ORCL).
Nobody asked if he might be distracted by the beautiful women who likely populate the halls at Larry Ellison's company. It was never a factor.If Brian Dunn didn't burn Best Buy (BBY) to the ground, he would have no trouble getting another job. In fact, despite his ineptness, he could probably still land a primo gig in retail. Do you really think the good ol' boys who interview him are going to ask if another female underling might distract from or inappropriately associate with his management duties? The media, as well as Wall Street, absolutely refuses to talk about Apple (AAPL) CEO Tim Cook's personal life. Felix Salmon, who discussed Cook's sexuality at Reuters appears to be the only major player with the guts and social conviction to get into it. I understand the reasons why and I even agree. It's personal. Everybody screws up from time to time (Hurd, Dunn). Everybody has potential distractions (Hurd, Dunn). And plenty of people live lifestyles that, while perfectly normal, make others uneasy and, if highly public, could become a distraction (Cook). I get it. These things should not be issues. They have no impact whatsoever on Hurd, Dunn or Cook's abilities to do their jobs. We talk about these issues -- some of them -- while they're tabloid material, but we proceed to let them fade to the background as the powerful executive moves forward to his next challenge. If you're a woman, however, chances are you'll face more scrutiny than a man, particularly from Wall Street and the media, and it will take longer for it to fade away, if it ever does completely.

In South Carolina summertime always means two things: 1) It will be hot the ENTIRE time…plus into the Fall and 2) Berries are fresh and in seasoning. Ok, well strawberries are more of a spring thing, but you can still catch some fresh strawberries in the early parts of the summer. Luckily for me there has been fresh strawberries at the farmers' market. Since I got my ice cream maker last year right before I started a Whole30, and couldn't eat sweets, it didn't leave me much time to make any ice creams or sorbets. This year I got right to work as soon as there was the slightest bit of warm weather. Before I get to the recipe, I want to share with you why strawberries are so nutritious and good for those that are trying to heal from adrenal fatigue.
Benefits of Strawberries:
- Contain calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium
- A good source of vitamin C which is essential for healing tired adrenal glands
- Have been found to protect against cervical and breast cancer
- The flavonoids gives strawberries its anti-inflammatory properties
It's important to note that strawberries are on the "Dirty Dozen" produce list which means they are most likely to contain pesticides and chemicals so it's important to always chose organic strawberries. I use this ice cream maker and absolutely love it. It's so easy to use and makes sorbets and ice creams in 20 mins or less.
Cusinart Ice Cream and Sorbet Maker
- 1 lb strawberries, trimmed and halved
- 1 cup water
- Zest of 1 lime
- Juice of 2 limes
- 1/2 cup equivalent sweetener (Sweeten to taste--I used Confectioners' Swerve)
- Add of the ingredients except the sweetener and blend until smooth.
- Sweeten to taste.
- Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and process according to manufacturers directions.
Net Carb Count*: Strawberry Lime Sorbet: 6.03 net carbs (for 1/2 cup---makes about 3 cups).
*Note carb counts are estimated based on the products I used. Check nutrition labels for accurate carb counts and gluten information.
For low carb sweetener...

January 28, 2005
With so much snow on the ground, Ron Miller is going to have a hard time keeping his team under control.
"It's amazing how excited the dogs get," Miller says of his huskies, Snowflake, Delta, Greer, Taylor and Chena. "Everyone asks how we get them to go when we bring them up into the starting chute, but the real question is, how do you get them to slow down?"
For two years Miller and his team have taken the gold medal in the White Mountain Winter Games. The team will compete this weekend.
Miller, a forester who lives in Pinetop, began sledding 18 years ago while he lived in Fairbanks, Alaska.
"It's the state sport in Alaska," he says. "When we moved to Fairbanks, I wanted to do something that would make me look forward to winter."
"We love it when it snows," says Miller, who is vice president of the Arizona Mountain Mushers. "It's good for racing, and it's good for the trees."
Miller says the sport is popular throughout the state. There are teams from Phoenix and Tucson who prepare their dogs by keeping them inside air-conditioned homes and training with carts and fourwheelers.
The races will be 8:30 a.m. Saturday and 9 a.m. Sunday at Sunrise Park Resort. After spending the morning in the frigid air on Saturday, spectators will be treated to hot chocolate, coffee and other treats at Hon-Dah Resort-Casino. Other festivities at the casino include a snowmanbuilding contest, an icesculpting competition and sleigh rides.

Treasury bonds fell for a second day as below-average demand at the government's $32 billion three- year note sale weighed on projections for the 10- and 30-year auctions over the next two days.
The bid-to-cover ratio, which gauges demand by comparing the amount with the amount offered, was 3.24, the lowest at a three-year auction since September 2011, versus a 3.60 average at the previous 10 sales. Traders had speculated that the Bank of Japan (8301)'s plan to double its asset purchases might boost buying at the auction. The U.S. will sell $21 billion in 10-year notes tomorrow and $13 billion in bonds the next day.
"It will be difficult to sell the longer maturities with the three-year not going as well as expected," said Paul Montaquila, fixed-income investment officer with BNP Paribas SA's Bank of the West and BNP Paribas Securities Corp.
Yields on 30-year bonds rose two basis points, or 0.02 percentage point, to 2.94 percent at 5 p.m. in New York, Bloomberg Bond Trader prices showed. The 3.125 percent security due in February 2043 fell 15/32, or $4.69 per $1,000 face value, to 103 22/32.
The yield on the current three-year note was little changed at 0.33 percent. It touched 0.3 percent on April 5, the lowest level since Oct. 4.
Benchmark 10-year note yields were 1.75 percent after dropping to 1.68 percent on April 5, the least since Dec. 12.
Ten-year yields traded below 2 percent for the third straight week as Fed Chairman Ben S. Bernanke signaled in a speech yesterday that there was room for improvement in the economy, spurring bets the central bank will maintain asset purchases.
Bidder Results
Treasury volatility as measured by the Bank of America Merrill Lynch MOVE index was 52.72 basis points today, the lowest level since Dec. 11. The gauge, which tracks the outlook for swings in U.S. government debt rates, has averaged 64 basis points over the past year.
The three-year securities sold today drew a yield of 0.342 percent, compared with an average forecast of 0.341 percent in a Bloomberg News survey of 10 of the Federal Reserve's 21 primary dealers.
Direct bidders, non-primary-dealer investors that place their bids directly with the Treasury, purchased 16.2 percent of the notes, versus a record-high 26.9 percent in February and an average of 19 percent at the past 10 auctions.
Indirect bidders, an investor class that includes foreign central banks, purchased 19 percent of the notes, compared with an average of 26.6 percent at the past 10 sales. They bought a record-low 18 percent at the Feb. 12 offering.
'Go Longer'
"No one is excited about the front end of the market," said Tom Tucci, managing director and head of Treasury trading in New York at CIBC World Markets Corp. "It's at one of the richest levels historically so that doesn't give it much flavor. They may go longer out the curve and pick up duration."
Last month's sale of the debt yielded 0.411 percent, while the record-low yield of 0.327 percent was reached in December.
Three-year notes have gained investors 0.2 percent this year, compared with a return of 0.6 percent in 2012, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch indexes. The broader Treasuries market has returned 0.5 percent this year after gaining 2.2 percent last year.
The Treasury Department is selling $66 billion in notes and bonds this week. The sales will raise $6.7 billion of new cash, as maturing securities held by the public total $59.3 billion, according to the Treasury.
Japan QE
New Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda said April 4 the central bank would double its monthly asset purchases in a bid to encourage inflation, a form of quantitative easing, or QE. Japan held $1.12 trillion of U.S. government debt, Treasury data through January shows.
"Everybody's waiting to see what's going to happen as Japan continues to do QE," said Michael Franzese, senior vice president of fixed-income trading at ED&F Man Capital Markets in New York. "They are searching for yield. The most secure thing they can go into right now are Treasuries."
The yield on the 10-year Japanese note was 0.53 percent today, according to Bloomberg data.
The Fed is buying government and mortgage debt at a rate of $85 billion a month in a bid to boost expansion and reduce unemployment. The central bank purchased $1.57 billion of securities due between February 2037 and February 2043 today, according to the New York Fed's website.
The Labor Department will say on April 11 that claims for jobless benefits dropped to 360,000 in the week ended April 6, according to the median estimate in a Bloomberg News survey of economists. Applications reached 385,000 in the period through March 30, the most in almost four months.

First come the New Year, and then comes the resolutions. With eco awareness on the rise, it's not surprising that many New Year's resolutions are to live a cleaner and more sustainable life. While green living may be the new buzz word, to start doing it may take some definition and direction. Here are a few ideas that may help you move toward a more green 2014:
1. Practice the 3 R's: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle.
2. Buy organics: Shop your local farmer's market for organic fruits and veggies and look for natural personal care and clothing made from natural fibers.
3. Bring your own reusable bags when you go shopping.
4. Composting as much as possible. Collect your table scraps and lawn clippings in a yard composter to make free fertilizer! Use it on your plants, gardens, tree pits, anywhere!
5. Recycling: recycle everything! Paper, materials, home items, and more!
6. Energy efficiency: purchase energy star certified appliances. Buy and use renewable or wind energy and monitor your use of energy.
7. Water: Reduce you water usage with xeriscaping and using sprinkler systems in the yard. Use shower timers and other water conservation tools to reduce your daily water usage.
8. Indoor air quality: use chemical free cleaners, live plants, sustainable fabrics and paint in your home. Your indoor air quality will improve and you'll support sustainable businesses producing green products.
9. Wash your clothes in cold water. You will reduce your energy consumption by reducing the amount of heated water needs. Also, instead of using the dryer, try to hang your clothes outside or indoors on a folding rack .
10. Play outside. Have fun and keep fit by appreciating all that nature has to offer: parks, trails, gardens, etc.
11. Green your travel. Try a eco trip this year for your vacation.
12. Get an Energy Audit: Find an energy audit company in your area to analyze the energy efficiency of your home. An audit can potentially save you thousands of dollars by making a few changes.
Have a Happy (Green) New Year!!!

1. Buy Less
Solar LED lights are the most energy efficient lighting options. Worse case, convert all older lighting to some form of LED and reduce your energy cost by up to 90%.
2. Wrapping paper
Instead of wasting loads of money on wrapping paper, use old paper bags, newspapers and school art work. If you do buy, use environmentally friendly wrapping paper. Choose wrapping paper made using fibers such as hemp or paper from recycled content. Also, reuse or recycle gift packing materials
3. Set Holiday Light Displays On Automatic Timers
4. Shop online
Rather than driving around for hours and wasting time and gas, consider shopping online.
5. Cook As Efficiently As Possible
If you are cooking on an electric oven, the Environmental Protection Agency suggests that you can reduce your use of electricity by doing some of your cooking in a crock pot, which supposedly uses less electricity than an electric oven. You can also reduce your fuel consumption
6. Durable decorations
When buying decorations, ensure you buy good quality or make them yourself from reusable products you find around your home. Good quality decorations may cost more initially but they won't need to be replaced as often as their cheaper versions
7. Christmas tree choices
Whilst artificial Christmas Trees last longer, the plastic used to make them can be quite toxic to our environment. Consider purchasing a real Christmas Tree. You can keep it in a pot through the festive season than plant it in your backyard at the end of December. Real trees also support tree planting programs which soak up carbon from our atmosphere.
8. Green gifts
Consider only purchasing Eco Friendly gifts. You can find products available that are often made from recycled goods or are made only of sustainable materials.
9. DIY cards and gifts
Make your own cards and presents – these gifts are more likely to be treasured, extending their life cycle. You can also reuse last year's cards by making gift labels for this year.
10. e-cards
Instead of sending traditional Christmas Cards to family and friends, which cost both money and resources, reduce your carbon footprint by sending an e-card with a personal message.

Generally food waste is organic and will decompose, but when mixed with other waste in the landfill food waste actually contributes to the production and release of harmful gases which potentially cause environmental damage. In fact, food scraps are the third largest segment of the waste stream with nearly 26 million tons generated each year. Of the overall waste stream,about 12% is food-related, behind paper and plastic
However, by composting your food waste, you can actually put that waste to good use by putting it back back into the earth. The resulting compost can be used in a variety of different ways to support your yard or garden.
Compostable Food Items:
Non-compostable Food Items:
How to Compost
You will need to buy or make a compost bin to effectively to manage your waste to create compost. Check with your local municipality for compost bin rebate programs.
Place your compost bin on a level, well-drained area. Make sure that the base of your compost bin is open and place it on soil ideally. This is so that the compost can absorb nutrients and moisture from the soil below easily. It also enables creatures like worms to get into the waste and they help break it down into compost.
Cover the compost bin with a water-proof cover. Every three months you will need to stir the compost pile until it is ready. The process can take anywhere from four to 18 months depending upon your climate and the types of waste in the compost pile. The compost is ready when the compost is a consistent dark brown and develops an earthy smell.
Tips for Composting
Easy and Quick Composting
For those that may not want to deal with the physical demands or time it takes for a compost pile to mature, we recommend the use of a tumbling composter. Tumbling is the most effective method for making compost quickly because it evenly mixes nitrogen and carbon materials(green and brown) for optimal eco-interaction. Add the benefit of complete distribution of moisture, air, and organic microbes throughout the batch and you'll create conditions perfect for express composting. Vented ends provide optimal aeration so this tumbler will help create finished compost 4 to10times quicker than a tradition composting bed. Plus its resistant to animal entry and it's easy to turn. Just load up the composting drum and tumble it a couple times a week. Nature will do the rest as it creates nutrient rich organic compost in as little as 3 weeks.
If you are interested in a yard composter, you can visit http://www.greenlivingeveryday.com/category-s/40.htm to see our full line of home and garden composting products.

Your baby's skin is the largest and most delicate organ. Yet we regularly massage the skin with products loaded with petrochemical ingredients. If you would read the label on the back of your child's shampoo or wash bottle, you would see dyes, preservatives, synthetic foams, parabens and petrochemicals. Remember, the skin is a porous membrane, so up to 60% of products that are applied to skin will make its way into the body. This results in over 90 industrial chemicals that the body can't breakdown and eliminate. This material will accumulate over time and can lead to serious diseases like cancer.
The average consumer can't fully determine the long term dangers of applying various chemicals and corrosives to their children's skin and scalp. As more parents are becoming aware, they are reconsidering using conventional bath products. Here is a further listing of some of the harmful ingredients in many conventional bath products:
True organic shampoo and wash products offer a wealth of benefits for hair and skin that will be immediately noticeable. Organic products gently infuse your hair follicles and skin cells with natural minerals, herbal extracts, and oils. Keep in mind that not every natural ingredient is safe for a baby's delicate skin. Some essential oils may be irritating so when choosing a shampoo or body wash for your baby, read the label carefully and be sure it has been proven safe for infants. There are lots of shampoos to choose from, so check out a few to see which one best meets your needs.
Vermont Soap Organic Baby Wash is great because it is two products in one. It can be used to wash both baby's hair and body. Bath time will only take about two squirts–one for the body and one to shampoo hair. Typically, one bottle will last much longer than most store bought brands. So even though it's a little more per bottle, you will save in the long run. Plus you're getting the benefit of knowing you're using the most natural ingredients for your baby's sensitive skin.
When you use organic bath products, you're also helping your environment by letting bio-degradable substances go down the drain and not harsh chemicals.

1. Change Furnace Filters
2. Run Fans in Reverse – Most people think of fans only when they want to be cool, but many ceiling units come with a handy switch that reverses the direction of the blades. Counterclockwise rotation produces cooling breezes while switching to clockwise makes it seem warmer by making an updraft that sends the warmer air pooled near the ceiling back into the living space. This can cut your heating costs as much as 10 percent.
3. Winterize Your A/C and Water Lines – This one's really easy, and it will save you wear and tear on your cooling system, so it can function at tip-top shape the next time you need it. Simply drain any hoses and air conditioner pipes, and make sure you don't have excess water pooled in equipment. If your a/c has a water shutoff valve, go ahead and turn that off.
4. Turn Down Your Water Heater – While many conventional water heaters are set to 140 degrees F by installers, most households don't need that level, and end up paying for hot water that just sits around, slowly cooling. Lowering the temperature to 120 would reduce your water heating costs by 6 to 10%.
5. Install Storm Doors and Windows – The simple act of installing a storm door can increase energy efficiency by 45 percent, by sealing drafts and reducing air flow. Storm doors also offer greater flexibility for letting light and ventilation enter your home. Look for Energy Star-certified models.
6. Use an Energy Monitor – Measure your way to savings with an energy monitor. This device indicates household electrical usage by device in real time. Now you´ll know if it is time for a new refrigerator or if that old air conditioner is still saving you money.
7. Use Caulking and Weather-stripping – Simple leaks can sap home energy efficiency by 5 to 30% a year, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. That means it pays to seal up gaps with caulking and weather-stripping.
8. Insulate Your Pipes – Pay less for hot water by insulating pipes. That can also help decrease the chance of pipes freezing, which can be disastrous. Check to see if your pipes are warm to the touch. If so, they are good candidates for insulation.
9. Insulate your attic. One of the easiest ways to save some money is to ensure that you have at least 12 inches of insulation in your attic. Hot air rises and through the attic is where it'll go unless you sufficient insulate it. The rule of thumb is that if you can see your ceiling joists (the wooden beams), you don't have enough because those are often shorter than 12 inches. You should also reduce the amount of transfer through your attic stairway by installing an attic stair cover.
10. Turn off exterior water lines. Chances are you won't be using any of the water faucets outside of your home, so shut the valve that allows water to those exterior bibs. This prevents the water inside from freezing and cracking your pipes.
11. Wrap your water boiler. Since it'll be cold, it's more important than ever to invest in a water heater blanket and warp your water heater so it loses less heat into the ambient air.
12. Open the blinds in sunny rooms. Be sure to keep the blinds open on any rooms that get a lot of sun, ever little bit of extra heat can help keep those bills down.
13. Get a programmable thermostat. Programmable thermostats can help you save a ton of money by only turning on when you most need it. All HVAC systems work the same way – they are either on or off (there's no low, medium, or high intensity setting). If you can keep your system off when you're not home or when you're asleep, you can save yourself a lot of money. They are easy to install and often break-even (cost vs. savings) within the first year.
14. Consider lowering the temperature setting on your thermostat. A lower temperature means the system is on less, so try lowering the temperature a degree at a time.
15. Replace your HVAC air filter. During the winter, when the system will run more often, it's good to replace it monthly so that you don't have a dirty air filter ruining the efficiency of the system.
16. Install window insulators. Window insulators are simply plastic sheets you tape up over windows to add an extra layer of protection from the cold. If you have especially drafty or old windows (especially if they're single pane), consider replacing them.
17. Block those leaks – One of the best ways to winterize your home is to simply block obvious leaks around your house, both inside and out, experts say. The average American home has leaks that amount to a nine-square-foot hole in the wall. First, find the leaks: On a breezy day, walk around inside holding a lit incense stick to the most common drafty areas: recessed lighting, window and door frames, electrical outlets. Then, buy door sweeps to close spaces under exterior doors, and caulk or apply tacky rope caulk to those drafty spots. Outlet gaskets can easily be installed in electrical outlets that share a home's outer walls, where cold air often enters.
18. Don't forget the chimney – Ideally, spring is the time to think about your chimney, because "chimney sweeps are going crazy right now, as you might have guessed." That said, don't put off your chimney needs before using your fireplace.
One other reminder: To keep out cold air, fireplace owners should keep their chimney's damper closed when the fireplace isn't in use. And for the same reason, woodstove owners should have glass doors on their stoves, and keep them closed when the stove isn't in use. An installation of a chimney draft guard will also prevent the loss of heat via your fireplace.

It seems more and more people these days know to go 'organic' when it comes to their fruit. Many of us understand some basic reasons for why organic is better, but there are also some fundamental differences between organic and non-organic fruit. The USDA's National Organic Program defines organics as, " A production system this is managed to respond to site-specific conditions by integrating cultural, biological and mechanical practices that foster cycling of resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity.
The problem with non-organic fruit is the high concentration of pesticides. There are about 12 fruits and vegetables to avoid unless you are buying organic. The Environmental Working Group, a exposure of 90% by avoiding the "dirty dozen." The following are ranked in order of highest toxicity: peaches, apples, celery, sweet bell peppers, nectarines, strawberries, potatoes, cherries, lettuce, imported grapes, pears and spinach.
The good news is that there are several fruits and vegetables that are very clean. The "cleanest dozen" are ranked in order of lowest pesticide load to highest and are as follows: avocado, onions, sweet corn (frozen), pineapple, mango, asparagus, sweet peas (frozen), kiwi, bananas, cabbage and broccoli. You will note that these fruits and vegetables have a thick outer skin, that keeps the pesticide concentration low.
Even though these foods a tad bit more expensive, people who are conscious of the environment don't mind the extra buck they need to pay as long as they feel they are doing something constructive for the environment and for themselves.

In my app I'm planning to combine my "popular" and "new" viewcontrollers into one, and have the "new" items have badges saying "new"
what should this view controller be called? i was thinking something like "Hot Items, or What's Hot" with a tab bar icon of a fire or something.
any suggestions?

Well your VC (ViewController) can and should be anything that will easily let you know what's the purpose of the VC. In your case, I'd probably go with "new_PopularViewController" which should make it noticeable when you're trying to search around for it.

J.J. Abrams has his fingers in many pies, and those pies now include the latest
Iron Man
movie, at least according to Robert Downey Jr. anyway.
Downey has revealed that Abrams acted as an occasional consultant on the movie when he and director Shane Black would find themselves in need of an outside opinion, particularly when figuring out the final act.
"There were a couple times in Iron Man 3 where our lifeline was we'd call Jon Favreau. [ Favreau ] reached out to Shane a bunch, particularly in the first Iron Man ," says Downey. "Then we reached out to J.J. Abrams at one point when we were really confused in Act III, and he helped us, too."
Star Trek , Star Wars and now the Marvel Universe… is there no sci-fi / fantasy property that Abrams doesn't have any ideas about?
Directed by Black and co-starring Don Cheadle, Ben Kingsley, Gwyneth Paltrow, Guy Pearce and Rebecca Hall, Iron Man 3 will open in the UK on 25 April 2013, a day earlier than previously planned.

Oklahoma City Panhandler Busted Driving New Car [VIDEO]

Oklahoma Senator Jim Inhofe is currently facing scrutiny and criticism for hosting a 'live pigeon shooting' event he held as a fundraiser for his re-election from animal rights activist at the Quartz Mountain Lodge.
Most people will pass a homeless person on the street every day and not give that person a second thought. But the truth is, most of us are just an illness, an accident, a wrong turn or a bad decision away from being that person.
Tim McGraw made headlines when he brought a sweet fan onstage during his July 13 concert and serenaded her with 'You Are So Beautiful,' even giving her his guitar. The moment still makes Sarah Fodor cry when she reminisces over the kindness the singer showed her.
Contrary to the belief of many people, homelessness isn't always an indication of the type of person that an individual truly is.

they will not tolerate their interpretation of your words, if it ends up
nasty, for long.
While it seems nothing can redeem my hideous acts and free me from this
hell, I hope I can save a few souls, this way.
Also, it would be unkind to not offer an opportunity to test the

Pamela Brown Walker
Pamela Brown Walker, 40, of Wichita Falls, passed away Wednesday, July 9, 2008.
The funeral service will be conducted at 1 p.m., Thursday, July 17, 2008, at the Life Tabernacle Church with Elder Millard Devine, officiating. Interment will follow at Crestview Memorial Park. Arrangements are under the direction of Owens & Brumley Funeral Home of Wichita Falls.
Pamela Walker was born Feb. 2, 1968, in Vernon, Texas, to Quincy Lee Ford, Sr. and Melba Jean Ford.
Pamela Walker graduated from Wichita Falls High School in 1987 and attended Vernon Regional Junior College. She worked in the Wichita Falls Independent School District at the Head Start Program and later on at Lamar Elementary School. She was recently employed with Liberty Tax Service.
One of Pamela's greatest achievements in her life was the role of being the mother of Brittany and Jordan Brown. She spent numerous hours teaching and preparing them for life. The three were inseparable. You could never see Pam far away from her children's sight. They were truly her reason for living life on this earth. Pam was their North Star. She was able to see both of her children graduate from high school. Her main goal also was to give her children a strong Christian foundation that would sustain them in life. Her favorite passion was her work in church. She was a faithful member of The Church of the Living God, C.W.F.F. She became a member at the age of 12 years old and continued to be very active until the time of her death. Pam was the president of the Usher Board; Choir Director; and president of the Women's Work Ministry. She attended a majority of The Church of the Living God C.W.F.F. district and national functions both in state and out of state. Pam used her gifts and talents for the benfits of the Lord and for her beloved Church. She never hesitated to volunteer and assist with her services monetarily or talents. Her strong, beautiful singing voice will be truly missed. The Lord will greet her with open arms and say, "Well done, my true and faithful servant." Pamela's daily walk was to make it to heaven. She lived her life so that others would see her good deeds and hard work. God said, "Let your light shine so that others will see your good works."
Pamela spent numerous hours helping others by listening, giving and encouraging others.
Pamela was so loved by her family and friends. No one could have been so richly blessed to have her in their life. So we all say, "Good bye to our sweet angel. Rest in peace our dear, sweet sister."
Pam was preceded in death by her father, Quincy Lee Ford, Sr.; her husband, George Walker, Jr.; and her grandparents, Noree Frater and James Frater.
Survivors include her children, Brittany Brown and Jordan Brown of Wichita Falls, Texas; her mother, Melba Jean Ford of Wichita Falls, Texas; two sisters, Gaylen Ann Pratt and Quincy Leeanna Horton, both of Austin, Texas; six aunts; seven uncles; and numerous cousins throughout the United States.
For those desiring, the family suggests that memorial contributions be made to the American Diabetes Association; P.O. Box 11454; Alexandria, VA 22312.
Condolences may be sent to the family at www.owensandbrumley.com.

LIBRs and GLWBs: What agents need to know now
By Paul Cross
Annuity National Brokerage Co.
Ten thousand baby boomers are retiring daily with corporate pension plans in demise, state and federal pension plans under water, Social Security $16.8 trillion in the red, and a nation that is drowning in a sea of debt. Seventy-seven million boomers, who are preparing for the golden years of retirement in search of safe, secure ways to protect and grow their IRAs, 401(k)s, TSAs and TSPs with income guaranteed for life, are now recognizing the real value and merits of annuities.
How can boomers be assured of an income for life?
Financial universities and economists around the globe have concluded and documented that income annuities can provide an income for life at a cost as much as 40 percent less than a traditional stock, bond and cash mix. It's interesting to note that while economists and financial universities were just catching on to the real merits of annuities, the annuity companies were again a step ahead with the introduction of special life income benefit features that may increase the opportunity for income you cannot outlive.
The cost factors agents need to know now
In addition to lifetime income provisions, including the payout factors that can impact the income stream, here are some factors agents need to know now relative to optional income benefit riders, LIBRs and GLWBs.
1. The growth percentage or rollup rate may range from 4 percent to 8 percent.
2. The rider annual cost factor — costs may range from free or 0.50 percent to 0.95 percent.
3. Some contracts base the cost factor on the accumulated value; some are based on the income rider value. This can be a substantial difference in the amount charged to the accumulated value.
4. Some annuities charge the cost factor to the accumulation value on the day the contract is issued, while others start the charge at the end of each year when interest is credited.
Other important factors you don't want to overlook
Many agents feel the accumulation value is less relevant when lifetime retirement income is the primary goal. However, at what point is the inheritance value to a surviving spouse or other family members not important?
When the rider cost factor is based upon the income value, as compared to the accumulation value, the rider cost will remain substantially higher throughout the income period, increasing the depletion of the accumulated value.
For unforeseen reasons, some people will want to stop the income benefit rider, or they may elect 10 percent penalty-free withdrawals. Therefore, it is important to provide good lifetime income benefit options with appropriate cost factors to maximize the income value and the accumulated value to the benefit of the owner and/or the beneficiaries.
Now is our opportunity to help people enjoy a richer retirement with income they cannot outlive.

Not so bad economy?
Kara Swisher at All Things Digital correlates the false positivity of Venture Capital fundraising with a not so bad economy. Wishful thinking perhaps, here is our response:
Well, average returns of VC funds over the last 10+ years are still in line with the economy, both are negative. More money-in using the current flawed VC economics, in violation of free-markets, only subscribes to how clueless Limited Partners are or how large the size of the Private Equity overhang still is.

The rainforest is home to more species of plant and animals than any other habitat on the planet. But for humans, life there is not as easy as it looks. Life in the trees requires great skill, ingenuity and sheer bravery. The Matis of Brazil carve 4-meter-long blowpipes to hunt monkeys in near total silence. Deep in the Congo forests, Tete defies death by scaling a giant tree using nothing more than a liana vine, and he must then negotiate an angry swarm of bees, all to a collect honey for his family. Most memorable of all, in Brazil we join a unique monitoring flight in search of an un-contacted tribe.

oh fantastic! :) love that title…..
Wow Dan, thanks for the quick response. I've been away for a bit and to get n enthusiatic comment on my first upload for a while is great.
– Rhoufi
Stillness and movement in the same shot. Title matches the image. Excellent capture Rhoufi! :-)
Hi Linda, thanks. Aren't these kids just great. They were watching the Northern Lights in Adelaide earlier this year. Remember when you used to made to "get ready for bed" or you couldn't go out to the DI or somewhere special.
– Rhoufi
DI??? Do you mean Drive In. Hee Hee! Hee! Yeah! I remember the good 'ole days and drive ins and being little. Memories…….
Yep, the "Drive In". I think we have one, maybe two left in Melbourne. We used to back the station wagon up and watch through the tailgate. All gone..so sad :—(
– Rhoufi
And another goodie! Love this Rhou, love the movement :-)
Thanks again Ell. This is my fav of the night – same kid as the previous shot, with his brother. He paused while everyone else was moving and twirled his brolly by the monument. Lucky, there I was, camera in hand.
– Rhoufi
really like this shot :))
Thanks Christine. In amongst all the vibrant colour shots of Adelaide's "Northern Lights" this is my favourite, and B+W at that: kids out up late, wide eyed and ranging about at high speed;then a pause, just for me. So lucky.
– Rhoufi
nice work Rhoufi, perfect in bw.
Thanks Aart, yes I really like this. With the colour gone it all came down to the essential subject and his dark coloured dressing gown came out so well.
– Rhoufi
WooHoo! A caption fun Feature – thank you Georgie. Yes he was like a statue while his sibling was rocketing about all over the place. Same boy as Hiding in the light .
– Rhoufi
such an unexpected and wonderful candid! love the movement :)
Thank you Simone. It was an unexpected subject. I turned around and there they were, No time for settings, just take it. Bit slow but then that's what gave me the movement blur; so lucky. I do love this photo; reminds me of being a kid going to the drive in in my jammies :—))

The Senses Bureau, a research group at the University of California at San Diego (UCSD), has announced that the Virtual Explorer is available at no cost to schools. Virtual Explorer is an interactive simulation of a voyage through the human immune system. The science-based virtual reality adventure enhances learning about highly complex disease-fighting mechanisms.
Viewers pilot a microscopic "nanobot" ship through his or her own blood stream and lymph system. After selecting which cellular character to play, they perform functions such as cellular navigation, white blood cell recognition and molecular docking, all within computer animation with four-channel spatialized sound.
At UCSD, the virtual environment is powered by a four-processor SGI Onyx supercomputer system. Any SGI computer, ranging from the Onyx to the O2 can also drive the adventure. Additionally, the Senses Bureau hopes to port Virtual Explorer to the Windows NT platform. Virtual Explorer is also available on an "open source" licensing basis for those who wish to develop other educational applications or to extend the currently available adventure. The Senses Bureau, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA, (619) 822-0162, www.wilson.ucsd.edu/ve/.

This year's UP Live festival, marking UP Magazine's 2nd-Year Anniversary, is going to be double the size and double the fun.
Themed "Other Side of the Tracks", this year's event takes place in the antiquated train yards of the Railway Museum. The backdrop provides a unique venue for UP's mixture of art, music, film and great food.
UP Live 2 starts in the afternoon hours from 4 p.m. and features a special 'Street Faire', festival-environment involving chic urban vendors, such as Chilimango, Nairobi Vinyl, book swappers and other urban retailers. Co-sponsor, Dormans, will provide grilled favorites and great coffees. This is complemented by 'street eats' such as fresh Indian Karoga-style stews and naan. Popcorn, cotton candy and cup cakes will be just as yummy for adults as it will be for Kids.
Performers: The Old Cambrians Band, The Kenyan Boys Choir and the Slum Drummers are going to collaborate with our diverse line-up of headliners including Ayub Ogada, Blinky Bill, Mumala, and Miss Karun and Thee MC Africa (from Camp Mulla).
Absolut Vodka presents this year's UP Live concert. This partnership includes an artist activation called, Absolut Blank. Selected artists will be on site painting canvases supplied by Absolut Vodka. This begins a three-month program, called Pop-UP Gallery and a competition to crown Nairobi's leading pop-artist.
Pawa 254 will also be on hand to create a 'media salon', complete with chill out spaces and phote exhibitions. Nai ni Who? will be tracking the activities as part of an overall public space and community-building project.
When the sun goes down the jam-packed concert begins. This year's line-up includes UP's uniquely-produced mix of traditional and pop-music with late night dance-house DJs capping the evening.
Early birds will get a break on the entrance price of 700/= if paying in advance for tickets available at all Dormans, or at the gate before 7 p.m. After 7 p.m. tickets are 1,000/=.
Parking is free. Lot's of security. Tenting and oil-can fires will provide warmth and coverage no matter what the weather.

Date & Time: 19th April 2013, 10.00 pm
Venue: Maendeleo House
Entrance : Free
Whether it's Nairobi or Naples, Bristol or Johannesburg: in all the major cities of Africa and Europe, people get together in dedicated spaces to dance to music and party – and form communities and subcultures. Club culture is a global phenomenon, but what kind of music are people dancing to? What sort of public sphere do club cultures create? And what happens when the club music from two different continents meets head on?
Over the last few years we have organised quite a number of projects that go beyond Kenya, but TEN CITIES is our biggest endeavor so far. It is a music and research project that brings together musicians and writers from ten cities in Africa and Europe. The project initiates music production and details the unwritten history of club culture in Cairo, Johannesburg, Luanda, Lagos and Nairobi as well as in Berlin, Bristol, Kiev, Lisbon and Naples.
To start the project off in Nairobi, we are setting up a club at an special location. For one night only, we transform an actual restaurant into a great party place by adding a distinct clubbing atmosphere to the interior.
Blinky Bill and DJ Raph will spin and play some hot tunes to join us all in!

.- Christians continue to be persecuted and treated unfairly around the world. In an effort to make their experiences more known, Christian Freedom International has launched a new educational series on the persecuted church. The first episode is titled "Remember the Persecuted: Indonesia."
This 20-minute, fast-paced DVD is segmented into four, five-minute chapters. The first segment tells about three wrongly accused Sunday School teachers are in prison for allowing several Muslim students to attend their class. The second segment offers an in-depth look at Christians fleeing "Jihad Warriors," a large Christian refugee camp, and a makeshift hospital. The third segment epxlores the forced shutdown of dozens of churches in the Indonesian province of West Java. The last segment tells about the forgotten mostly Christian-populated Nias Island, which was hit by the tsunami and which the mainstream media never mentions.

As described in Appendix A, quality assessments depend on three things: (1) clarity about the competencies that the assessment should measure, (2) tasks and observations that effectively capture those competencies, and (3) appropriate qualitative and quantitative techniques to give interpretive power to the test results. Clarity about the competencies to be measured requires a theoretical understanding (that is empirically supported) of mathematics learning. Unlike many other areas of the curriculum, early mathematics has the theoretical and conceptual models, as well as supporting empirical data, on which to build quality assessments. Substantial work has already been done to specify critical concepts and skills in this domain, providing assessment developers with substantial resources on which to draw in drafting the elements of a measurement strategy.
Even with a strong foundation on which to build in early mathematics, much work remains in designing and testing assessment items to ensure that inferences can accurately be drawn about student knowledge and competencies. And this work must be carefully crafted for the specific purpose and use of the assessment. This includes formative assessment for use in the classroom to assist learning. These assessments can, for example, provide feedback to the teacher on whether a particular skill or concept is mastered adequately, or whether some individual students need more time and practice before moving on. Summative assessments are also used in the classroom, but they come at the end of a unit, giving a teacher feedback on how well the students have mastered and brought together the set of concepts and skills taught in the unit. These may be helpful to the teacher in redesigning instruction for the next year, providing valuable data on students' strengths and weakness that can inform instruction at the next level. School- or district-level assessments have a separate purpose. Rather than provide information on individual students, their purpose is to determine attainment levels for students as a group in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the school's or the district's instructional program and, in some cases, to hold schools accountable for the performance of their students.
Currently the different types of assessment are loosely con-
