Mads Mikkelson, Hugh Dancy
A chill wind blows onto your TV screen as summer beckons, with one last ghoulish chapter in the artful and macabre saga of NBC's Hannibal, Bryan Fuller's deliciously suspenseful and deeply unsettling twist on the Thomas Harris franchise. If we weren't in a boom time for quality drama featuring such an array of complex, morally ambiguous and compellingly portrayed male leads, the performances of Hugh Dancy as the psychologically broken profiler-for-the-FBI Will Graham and Mads Mikkelsen as his mentor/secret tormentor Hannibal Lecter would be slam-dunk Emmy bait.
Eddie Izzard
The action is about to pick up on NBC's Hannibal.On Thursday's Silence of the Lambs-esque episode, "Entrée," (10/9c), Eddie Izzard guest-stars as an imprisoned killer who, after murdering a nurse inside the asylum, now claims to be the Chesapeake Ripper. Refusing to believe that the big fish he's been chasing for years is already behind bars, Jack (Laurence Fishburne) sends Will (Hugh Dancy) and Dr. Bloom (Caroline Dhavernas) to question Izzard's character...

Alison Brie as Annie, Jim Rash, Yvette Nicole Brown
Here's something you've probably never heard anyone say while watching NBC's Community: Yeah, that could happen.
And so it is this week, with an episode (8/7c) by Oscar-winning screenwriter/goofball extraordinaire Jim Rash (Dean Pelton), in which Troy and Abed go too far — what else is new — in their obsession with cheesy body-switching movies. Before you can say Freaky Friday, Troy is adopting Abed's dislocated mannerisms while Abed channels Troy's giddy swagger. Donald Glover and Danny Pudi are, as usual, a joy to watch, even if the message behind their madness is delivered with a heavy hand reflective of this uneven transitional season. And who could blame Rash for giving himself some of the best bits, as the Dean imagines he has pulled off his own body switch with his numero-uno obsession, the unamused Jeff Winger (Joel McHale).
Hugh Dancy, Mads Mikkelsen
Could it be that NBC has produced a keeper in the deliciously creepy Hannibal? We shouldn't break out the proverbial Chianti just yet; the early returns have been modest, to put it mildly, but in this tough-for-NBC time period (Thursday, 10/9c) that the network once owned, it's looking better than it has lately (with an insta-dud like Do No Harm or the below-the-radar Rock Center). And the media buzz, while understandably mixed, is stronger than for most of the networks' midseason yawns. With repeats on the other networks this week, and featuring one of the show's most relentlessly unnerving chapters to date, this is as good a time as any to sample Hannibal's unsavory wares.
Hugh Dancy, Laurence Fishburne, Mads Mikkelsen
In a year that's already given us Fox's The Following and A&E's Bates Motel, some might argue that we don't need another serial killer TV show. And they'd probably be right.But NBC's Hannibal isn't just another serial killer show. Spring Preview: Gets scoop on all the must-see new showsTaking characters from the Thomas Harris novels that inspired a film series that includes Manhunter, The Silence of the Lambs and Red Dragon, executive producer Bryan Fuller (Wonderfalls, Pushing Daisies) has created a sophisticated drama that doesn't glorify the violence of mass murder but rather examines the toll that hunting serial killers takes on the minds and souls of those who hunt. In fact, even though the show is named after Dr. Hannibal Lecter, who was immortalized as one of the greatest pop culture villains of all time thanks to Anthony Hopkins' Oscar-winning portrayal, the series — at least initially — isn't entirely focused on the cannibal in the three-piece suit...

You can't help but get a deliciously squirmy tingle when the infamous (to the viewer, anyway) Hannibal Lecter quips, "It's nice to have an old friend for dinner" while serving tongue to his guests, including an unctuous and chatty shrink whom Lecter sizes up by coolly noting, "Your tongue is very feisty."
This scenario takes place several episodes into the midseason run of NBC's feverishly twisted, fascinatingly macabre and visually remarkable procedural-with-a-twist Hannibal (Thursday, 10:01/9:01c), by which time I was completely creeped out and thoroughly hooked. In much the same way A&E's Bates Motel introduces a younger version of Norman Bates before he had his crazy mama mummified in the cellar, Bryan Fuller's Hannibal presents the mad Dr. Lecter before his secret identity as a cannibalistic serial killer is known to anyone but his victims. He is caginess personified, taking on the role of advisor and therapist to tormented FBI profiler/consultant Will Graham (from Thomas Harris' Red Dragon). Will has an ability to project "pure empathy" and see grisly crimes from the killer's POV, which Lecter describes quite accurately as "an uncomfortable gift."

It's the big one - the Golden Joystick Awards Ultimate Game of the Year, and the public have voted Valve's seminal puzzler Portal 2 as the overall winner for 2011.
Portal 2 released on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 earlier this year to overwhelming critical acclaim. In our Portal 2 review we called the puzzle shooter "one of 2011's most interesting, challenging blockbusters."
"Valve's sequel is another fantastic display of no-filler design; gameplay is relentlessly imaginative and evolves seamlessly from effortless hurdle to mind-boggling physics test - and we'd throw ourselves through the ceiling for more."
Valve's since released the Peer Review DLC, which adds new challenges for players to solve as P-Body and Atlas, the stars of Portal 2's co-operative campaign.
Getting respectable runners-up places in the Ultimate Game of the Year category are Blizzard's StarCraft II and Activision FPS monster Call of Duty: Black Ops.
A well deserved winner here if you ask us. Who doesn't love Portal 2? Let us know in the comments below.
Follow the rest of the awards in our Golden Joysticks 2011 live blog.

Criticism of Cessna's choice to build the upcoming SkyCatcher
LSA in China has grown steadily since the American planemaker
announced its decision in December. The company's VP of Marketing,
Tom Aniello, responded to those grumblings in a posting last month
on the Cessna SkyCatcher blog... acknowledging the debate many of
us have heard around pilot lounges, aviation events, and on the
pages of several publications (including ANN.)
Not surprisingly, Aniello defends the decision -- and stresses
the Model 162 will be a true-blue Cessna, despite the "Made In
China" label.
"Much of the feedback we heard was emotionally charged...
However, a great many remarks appeared to be based on incomplete or
inaccurate information," Aniello asserts. "We thought you might
appreciate some additional insight into Cessna's business
The rest of the posting lays out the 50-plus-year track record
of Shenyang Aircraft Company in producing both complete aircraft,
and also components for companies including Boeing, Airbus, and
Bombardier, and discusses at length the economic forces at work in
today's global economy.
Aniello closes with assurances that the SkyCatcher will truly be
a Cessna, fully backed by Cessna.
One month later, most of the 213 responses (at this writing)
have been from people who aren't buying the company's arguments --
and say they'll never buy a "Chessna," or any other plane assembled
in China.
A few, more pragmatic responses acknowledge Cessna's
compelling financial reasons for doing so... but still lament the
company's decision.

Dr. Milam attended medical school at University of Tennessee College of Medicine and graduated in 1976 having 38 years experience.
While there is no proven correlation between the quality of one's educational institution and the quality of one's professional competence, it is often an indicator. Medical schools have various levels of selectivity (some are harder to get into than others), and both the quality of their clinical training and level of research are measured. Additional medical training in both residency and fellowships and the facilities they are conducted at also provide a history of the doctors' level of training and experience.

Which Livestream of the PS4 Event Will You Be Watching?
Look at the front page. Giant Bomb will stream it.
Ah - it's in the ticker. Should be plastred smack dab center screen by now, if you ask me. I could go for some GiantBomb shennanigans. Then again, I might want to stick with the earnestness of Sony's own unaltered feed.

I'd LOVE to watch right here on Giantbomb... but the site's broken, so I'll probably just keep watching this gametrailers stream I've been watching.
Gametrailer's stream is quite entertaining. When comes to streaming live events, Keighley & Co. got their shit together. Nice line-up of talking heads. Wonder what'll go down with GiantBomb's stream. Right now it's still a black screen.

$45: Fine for blocking street sweeper
469: Tons of waste county's street sweeper removed in 2012
558: Tons removed January-August of this year
2: Times per month Ladera's streets are swept
4: Hours parking is limited for sweeping
Source: OC Public Works
While the county is responsible for the vast majority of streets in Ladera Ranch, there are some private streets maintained by the homeowners association, Ladera Ranch Maintenance Corp. That includes all streets in the gated community of Covenant Hills, Executive Director Ken Gibson said, along with some special districts in other areas.
LARMAC does have signs posted stating when the streets will be swept and asking residents not to park there during that time. However, Gibson said they do not ticket vehicles that aren't moved.
If a car is repeatedly left in the street during that time, Gibson said the association will make a phone call and remind the owner to move it. Typically, he said that's all it takes, with few issues to date through the voluntary compliance system.
• Learn the route: Ladera Ranch Maintenance Corp. put together a color-coded map that shows what days and times crews hit what areas of the community. It's posted on the community portal LaderaLife.com. Go to the "Ladera" tab and click on "Maps," then open "Street Sweeping Map."
• Report debris: If you notice debris on a county street, contact Operations & Maintenance at 714-955-0200 or submit a service request online: occom.ocpublicworks.com/contactom
• Discuss signage: If you feel additional "No Parking for Street Sweeping" signs are needed, contact the county through one of the above avenues.
• Question enforcement: Concerns over enforcement of the no-parking laws should be directed to the Orange County Sheriff's Department's South Operations Division at 949-425-1800. To contest a street sweeping parking fine, see information printed on the back of the ticket.
LADERA RANCH – Ryan Geyer loaded his family into the car and drove across Ladera Ranch for a happy occasion, to see his youngest daughter promoted from kindergarten.
There were 110 tiny graduates from Chaparral Elementary School that year. With so many parents attending the ceremony and carnival, Geyer said cars quickly overflowed into the surrounding residential neighborhood.
Families enjoyed the celebration. Then they made their way back to their cars to find a surprise waiting on their windshields: tickets for blocking the street sweeper.
"I'm going to guess they gave out maybe 70 tickets in a matter of 20 minutes," Geyer said.
In his six years living in Ladera, Geyer said he's received five tickets for leaving his car parked on the street when the sweeper was scheduled to come by.
He said his neighbor across the street – who has six children, several of them teens who are constantly coming and going – has gotten around 40.
"For me, it seems like a racket," Geyer said. "I've stood outside with my neighbor and watched them shoot dirt up into my driveway. … I think it's a waste of money."
Residents have taken to helping each other out, knocking on doors and reminding neighbors to move their cars. They've set alarms on their phones when it's their street's turn. One woman posted to the community website that her kids displayed their own brightly colored signs on street sweeping day to protest the $45 tickets.
But Orange County, which maintains Ladera's unincorporated streets, says it's just doing its job.
"We are mandated by the state to provide street sweeping services at least once a month," said Eileen DePuy, a manager with OC Public Works. "We go above and beyond: We do it twice a month."
The county began its local street sweeping program in 2000, contracting the work to different vendors. The goal is to remove trash and debris along with oils, fertilizers and other materials that collect on roadways before they can reach the ocean.
If the streets aren't kept clean, Lt. Jim England with the Orange County Sheriff's Department said it can also become a public safety issue. Stagnant water can attract disease-carrying mosquitoes, trash can attract rodents and debris can block storm drains, leading to flooded roads and other hazards.
Still, resident Matt Surrena said he never hears anything other than frustration over the street sweeping.
"It seems like it's more of an excuse to write tickets and make money off of that than to do something positive," he said.
In his old Burbank neighborhood, Surrena said they also had regular street sweeping along with the occasional tickets. But there, he said he at least felt it was justified, with cigarette butts and other trash more common on the streets.
"Here, honestly, I don't see any difference. All it does push dirt around," he said. "I'd like to see proof that it actually does something. If it was gone for two months or even six months, I'd like to see the difference. Show me the evidence it's helping."
The county doesn't track how much waste is removed from Ladera alone, DePuy said. However, county data shows sweepers removed 469 tons of waste in 2012 from all unincorporated areas.
The Sheriff's Department has a community service officer assigned to work with the contracted street sweeper, England said. The officer meets up with the street sweeper each morning, he said, following the driver on the route and issuing tickets anytime the sweeper has to deviate from its path to go around an illegally parked car.

everything that i needed was there.. bed was beautiful.
Staff and location were great!
More options at Breakfast would have been nice.
Ac unit could use a cleanup.
Check in was a breeze and room was clean and spacious.
Pool was cold. Much colder then last time I stayed here my kids lips turned blue after 5 mins and there was a party going on in the hot tub with 7 others guests and they're booze bucket so we couldn't use it to warm up :(
Excellent customer service.
No microwave in the kitchen area so was unable to warm up my muffins in the morning. Had to wait approximately 20 minutes before worker arrived with muffins.
The room was good, the pool was nice as well.
There was a kidds hockey team playing in the hallway, I was ttold at the front desk that my room was upgraded but it was exactly what I booked online.
The location was great and so were the staff. Unfortunately, there was a big hockey tournament on the week-end we were there, so a little noisy.
Nice room, great breakfast.
Several teams were staying there and it was quite loud and disruptive into the wee hours of the morning.
Breakfast was a good variety, couldn't eat there too many people in the breakfast room, a good sign, the staff was friendly.
The room was very dusty, especially the lamps when you turned them on you could see thick dust. If someone was allergic. I didn't like the mattress covers on the bed they didn't hid the matress and I don't believe they are santitary. Also, there was no duvet cover on my duvet it was just a white duvet. I think that is very unsanitary.
The room was spacious and comfortable, staff were friendly and helpful and the breakfast was delicious.
Everything was good.
I booked thinking I was close to all the places we had planned on shopping. I did not know that Bryne off of Maplewiew was a dead end. It would have help that their ads would indicate entrance off of Essa .If iI would have known I would have booked somewhere else. Where we were made more traveling and more inconvenience.
Relaxing Jacuzz, helpful and friendly staff and clean, comfortable room.
A few minor repairs were needed in public areas and the parking lot was not salted.
The price per night at a discounted rate was fair. The free continental breakfast was a bonus.
Noise from the room above seemed to resonate in my room and my fully clogged tub/shower.
This hotel is easy to locate. It is in a very good area for mall shopping. Very nice breakfast. Excellent beds. Newspapers and indoor pool available.Not overpriced.
Very snowy parking lot when we arrived but all cleaned up when we left. Not near the hospital but and easy express ride to get there.
Easy location just off 400, friendly staff, attractive facilities, very comfortable room, relaxing pool/whirlpool after 9 hours of driving, and good room rate. Would stay again.
Excellent staff, always accommodating and friendly. The rooms have always been immaculate and we have never had an issue will noise. We make a point to stay at the Days Inn Barrie when we travel anywhere in the GTA.
Quiet, comfy bead.
Common areas could be cleaner (elevator, hallways)
smoke smell breakfast a bit light, needs more fresh fruit and hot items
Good breakfast, quiet location, comfortable beds.
Hard to find because it's on a street that is spit up. Bryne Street has 2 sections that are completely split from each other. There's a north Bryne Street and a south Bryne Street (but they're not named as such). If you're on the south Bryne you'll never find the hotel.
I loved the beds. they are so comfortable. In the morning I had a keurig in my room as I got ready...Just like home. Loved it and I will definitely stay there again.
During then stay the staff where very quick to minimize loud children running down the halls. The homemade cookies made me feel more at home during my stay.I would return.
Up grade needed on the pool/gym area. The gym was closed during my week stay.
Reasonably priced Good location
Gym out of service with no offer of reduced rate
The price was right, the bed was very comfortable , excellent location , good breakfast.
They could change up the breakfast once in a while.
comfy bed, clean bathroom
noise ( we could hear the next room TV, and noise in their room at 4 am!!!)
Value for money without compromise. Welcome by the reception staff and helpfulness in suggesting places to eat and giving us directions. Luggage trolley to take suitcases up and from the bedrooms. Ice machines in the corridor

Gran Turismo PSP: Collector's Edition (Exclusive)
Playstation Portable
Posted: 15/10/2009
I have to admit that this review is mostly a bash at the psp hardware.However as GTPSP touts itself as a genuine GT game it must by definition be considered a driving simulator.
I should say that im no stranger to racing games, ive been an ardent fan of Forza 2 and the GT series.
The one problem with the PSP hardware that i have not seen anybody else comment on is the lack of analog function.
The control stick is the only analog button on the device/So why is this a problem? Simple, you cant feather your throttle when your going round a bend.So you have the option of either clearing the bend with no throttle and waiting until you are absolutely straight before you hit the throttle, or you can attempt to use the the cars TCS, which is pretty much the only way you can limit throttle.
Either way your driving or lap times suffer, I got through the whole of forza 2 without one touching abs, stability management or tcs, its an annoying that the hardware was just not given these functions.
However, within the confines of the limited hardware the game is about as good as it can be.
Alot of people dislike the directionless/careermode-less play.Personally i have to say i quite like this lol.as good as forza was it was incredible rigid in terms of options.
But I cant get away from the fact that there are nice cars on this game that just handle like total cr** because of the hardware.
The ONLY reason im continuing with it is so that i can hopefully put these cars in my future GT5 garage and finally get a proper driving eperience
Sony NWZ-S639F 16GB S Series Premium Video MP3 Player (Black)
Posted: 08/12/2008
The most problematic thing with this package is the software;Firstly as a mac user i found it nearly impossible to reliably get music across to it.
There is no specific software so you have to rely on the drag-and-drop method.This is fine except on my mac i cannot get the drive to unmount before it auto mounts, meaning i essentially have to pull it out when it says do not disconnect.
However i do love the sound quality of the sony so i decided to migrate alot of music onto a laptop running vista.
I recommend downloading the free software media monkey.
Imo it is the only software worth using with the wm, you can pretty much kiss content transfer and media manager goodbye.
As an mp3/iplayer player i cannot recommend it highly enough.Mac users beware though.
Wimbledon: The 2008 Men's Final - Nadal Vs Federer (2 Discs)
9 New from
Free delivery
Posted: 12/08/2008
Without doubt this has to be the finest match ever played, it also has the distinction of being the most successful crossover match to have ever been aired.
I've never really looked forward to Wimbledon, I'm a clay court guy so Roland Garros is my tournament of choice.
Over the past few years though Nadal has made me love grass as he originally did clay many years prior.
I would recommend anyone who likes/loves tennis to buy this as you will not see a finer match for many years (unless next years final is even better!)
Perfect, epic match/.

This is without doubt one of my all time fave albumsSo much has been said about her voice and style so frankly i can't see the point adding to it.All i'll say is if you are a Xtina fan you will have and love this album, if your not get it and listen to these tracks.
Makes me wanna prayaint no other manStill DirtyHere To StayMercy On Me (one of the finest vocal performances of all time)
Leona Lewis - CD
7 New from

Potentially one of the greatest female vocalists of her generation, approaching Christina Aguilera in ability in my opinion.She has been let down terribly by this sickly sweet album of ballads.I like the song Bleeding love (although i think elements of the production are rushed, in particular the percussion)And with this album if you like track 1 you will like every other track because they are essentially the same, just over compressed piano, soft boring melodies.
Still i standby my comment, she is one of the best voices around, just for gods sake give her a real album next time!
Britney Spears - CD
12 New from
Free delivery
This album in my view represents the the final destination where Britney was headed with her album My Prerogative.All of the tracks on Blackout have a hard edgy feel much like the tracks My Prerogative, Having some fun.
This style of production is essentially the basis of the album only taken a few steps forward.
The lyrics do point to her recent behavior, whether this was pure serendipity or whether she acted that way in order to try and sell this album who knows, and who cares?Frankly i love Britney but before the whole shaving incident she was incredibly boring and one dimensional as a character, so on a human level i think she has become more real.Anyway i digress.For me the standout tracks on Blackout are.Break The IcePerfect LoverRadarToysoldierHeaven On Earth.
If you liked Toxic and the My Prerogative album then i recommend this album.If however you prefer classic Britney (baby one more time, oops i did it again , etc) then i would avoid this.

Heikki Kovalainen says he won't attend the 'special meeting' in Japan to discuss Lewis Hamilton's driving as he has "no problem" with the Brit.
After yet another incident-marred race weekend in Singapore, it was reported last week that the drivers will hold a meeting at Suzuka with FIA race director Charlie Whiting to talk about Hamilton's "bravado."
Autosprint claimed that 'Hamilton's colleagues have announced a meeting at the Suzuka Grand Prix with FIA delegate Charlie Whiting.'
And the point of the meeting will be to discuss the "antics" of the Brit in 'Malaysia, Monaco, Montreal, Silverstone, Hungaroring, Belgium and, also, in Singapore.'
However, it would seem not everyone is out to get Hamilton as his former McLaren team-mate has already stated he won't be present.
"Are all drivers attending a 'special meeting' in Japan about Hamilton's driving? I'm not, I have no problem," Kovalainen tweeted.

David Gordon Green Attached to Direct College Football Project SCORE from Don Johnson
by Dave Trumbore Posted 213 days ago
Here's some interesting news that should delight fans of HBO's Eastbound & Down: David Gordon Green is attached to reteam with Don Johnson on a new project set in the world of college football in the 1980s. Titled Score, the project will star Johnson as an outrageous coach who goes out of his way to break all of the NCAA's rules by recruiting criminals to play for him. Johnson scripted the story and Gordon Green is attached to direct. Don't expect a guaranteed theatrical release for this one because it's being packaged as a streaming project, though it's unclear if it's a feature film, miniseries, or series. Hit the jump for more.

Moorefield Examiner –
An infectious smile, exceptional energy and a bright bow tie are the trademarks of West Virginia University President E. Gordon Gee.
Gee came to Moorefield last week, a stop on his mission to visit all 55 counties in the state. He talked with the Examiner prior to a reception which drew nearly 100 people to the newly renovated McMechen House.
This is Gee's second stint as president of WVU. He held the post from 1981 – 1985. At that time he was the youngest university president in the country. He was 37 years

Updated: May 5, 2013 2:58PM
The General Assembly reconvenes next week amid indications that momentum may be building to pass a reform bill to reduce the state's nearly $100 million long-term pension liability.
Whatever optimism exists results from the House's passage, with votes from members of both parties, of a bill that would trim pension costs by an estimated $100 billion over
30 years, mainly by reducing retirees' annual
3 percent cost-of-living raises and delaying when they take effect.
The bill passed by a 66-50 vote before the Legislature took a two-week spring break, and it had impressive, and rare, bipartisan support (41 Democrats and 25 Republicans). It's now in the Senate, where its chances are uncertain.
The Senate needs to get on board the House plan, using it as a springboard to a compromise, so the inevitable constitutional challenge is resolved in court sooner than otherwise. Saying pension reform is urgent is an understatement — Illinois' massive pension liability grows by about $17 million a day and is eating up nearly 20 percent of the annual state budget.
The problem in the Senate is that its president, John Cullerton (D-Chicago), has his own plan, which he's pushing over the House bill — contending that the latter is unconstitutional because it reduces pension benefits without a required trade-off.
But Cullerton's proposal only applies to pensions for suburban and downstate teachers — not three other pension plans covered by the House legislation — and would save the state much less ($40 billion tops).
And it received only the minimum 30 votes needed to pass the Senate (where there are 40 Democrats) and drew no GOP votes. It clearly has less support than the House bill. Cullerton's qualms about the constitutionality of the House bill may be valid, but it's the best bet going and has support from both sides of the aisle.
It will need to be tweaked to enhance its chances of passing constitutional muster, but get it through and into court — where rulings will either uphold it or at least provide legislators with guidance on how to proceed further.

The last time we saw the 20s was May 3rd, when the overnight low was 28 degrees. The next few days will be a little warmer than usual for this time of year, with high temps in the 60s likely and overnight lows in the 30s.

AHOY! Some TLAPD4U
Start where you stand and never mind t' past, T' past won't help you in beginnin' new, If you have port it all behind at last Why, that's enough, you're done with it, you're through; This be another chapter in t' book, This be another race that you have planned, Don't give t' vanished days a aftward look, Start where you stand.
T' world won't care about your old defeats If you can start anew and win success, T' future be your time, and time be fleet And thar be much o' work and strain and stress; Forget t' buried woes and went t' Davy Jones' locker despairs, Here be a brand new trial starboard at hand, T' future be for him who does and dares, Start where you stand.
Old failures will not halt, old triumphs aid, To-day's t' thin', to-morrow soon will be; Get in t' fight and face it unafraid, And leave t' past t' ancient history; What has been, has been; ayeterday be went t' Davy Jones' locker And by it you be neither blessed nor banned, Take courage, man, be brave and drive ahead, Start where you stand.
Original by Berton Brailey - "Start Where You Stand"
No real changes since last week.
Met with my therapist, Ann. That name, or minor variant, seems to be pervasive in my life (Mom, Liz's Mom, Cousin, Aunt, Sister-in-law) Anyway... she seems good hearted, I don't have enough experience right now to make any remarks on her technique/style. But I think she may be a good fit.
She has me doing a separate journal to help me monitor emotions and such, but I feel off the wagon the last couple days... I need to get back on it. Simple how do I feel, what do I need type stuff. I just need to get it done and think of it like a task at work that has to be addressed.
I haven't been very active this week, the blues have me pretty tight. Taking most of my energy to make sure I don't release the beast on those around me. I knew that meeting with the therapist wasn't going to immediately fix anything, but it has me more self conscious about my ugly little habit. I'm realizing more each day how much I've been deluding myself. I'm half afraid that I'm going to gain back all of my weight in the process of recovering/rectifying the purging issue. That or that if I start gaining weight, that I'm going to back slide on any progress I made on the other front. it's a mass of confusion in my head at the moment.
But I'm going to keep on marching, and look towards the day where I am living the dream.
Hey Folks. Under 240 still and semi-content with that.
I found a therapist who can work with me about my issues to include my eating disorder. I'll see her this Friday. I hope with her help I can re-establish my center. This is a short update, not particularly virtually loquacious today.
Peace and Hugs.
I'm really struggling with whether I should tell anyone about my doctor's appointment today, but I think it needs to be disclosed and discussed.
Most of you know I suffer from Depression. It's something I've been gripping with most of my life. I came to the realization last week that I have a serious problem that I needed to seek help for. I didn't realize I had this problem because I kept making excuses and lying to myself about.
Liz accompanied me for moral support, and I wanted her to understand the depth of my self discovery. I saw my medication doctor who manages my depression meds today, and he says I need to see a specialist... and a therapist...
Over the past decade, I've become a purger... To the tune of 2-3 times a week minimum. I'm not going to lie about it, I knew it was wrong, but I couldn't stop feeling sick after certain meals. At first I would say self-betraying or self-denying things in order to justify my vomiting.. "it was too greasy", "Something tasted funny", "I have a drip down the back of my throat"
I can't say, nor am I qualified to self-diagnose myself as Bulimic. See, I don't binge per se. I get so guilty about eating at times, that I make myself sick. I've always had an uncanny ability to make myself vomit pretty much on command. Some where along the way, before Liam was born and after my first stint(s) in college, I realized sub-consciously that some of my eating habits were unhealthy.
I don't know when I started and would go to a buffet with my friends, and towards the end of the meal, I would feel so disgusted with myself that I would go to the bathroom and vomit. That is traditional bulimic behavior. I don't remember if that was the beginning or a mutation. All I can say is I approached Liz during the last part of the week and told her I think I have an eating disorder. She was very sympathetic, but not very surprised. She asked the questions before, she may have even said something outright and I brushed it off. For me, It didn't dawn on me until last week.
Liz and I went to Five Guys for a quick bite after going to the pool with Liam. Now we normally order the small "Little" burgers. A single patty, that isn't entirely too unhealthy. But I stood there when we ordered and said I wanted a bacon cheeseburge, and Liz asked if I meant to order a little bacon cheeseburger. I told her that my order was correct and she begrudgingly allowed me my indiscretion.
She didn't mean or intend for me to feel bad for ordering it, it was against my normal trend. People eat the full double patty all the time. I ate well that day. Healthy breakfast, had more than enough calories left in the day, it wasn't above an beyond in any significant manner outside of being at the time in my mind a larger than usual meal. Then as I finished the burger, I felt ashamed for not listening to Liz, I should have only ate half, I should have removed the bread, I should have... I should... up and to the bathroom.
Now remember when I said I ate pretty healthy/good that day, All that was in my stomach at that point was mostly the water and tea I have been drinking the last half of the afternoon. I know because most of it also came up after I rid myself of the intruder that was in my body. For the first time, I think I realized that something was amiss. Why wasn't I able to listen to my mind and the words of my wife and choose what I knew was the better choice? I still don't know the answer to that... Then came the next day.
So I went to work. Feeling pretty beat up after the previous nights dinner fiasco, I opted to have just yogurt to help my stomach in the morning for breakfast. 150 calorie greek yogurt that my coworkers are used to me eating. Well I missed dinner for all intents and purposes so I had a second midway through the morning. I went to lunch with a co-worker and got a three piece chicken strip from the local Hardee's. Again not a big meal by any stretch, but I had a whole two yogurts for breakfast... gluttony!! Then came pizza night.
I binged that night. Large Pepperoni Mushroom pizza from my favorite place Sal's. Had two slices at the table, and shoveled a third down my gullet as I stopped for something to drink. I realized I was blowing everything... I was out of control... I should accept it and not... and then I snuck myself out to the living room, and proceeded to go upstairs to get something. Half way up the stairs, I see the bathroom door at the top and decide to make a pit stop. It was the worst feeling in the world. I'm hanging on the toilet, forcing myself to retch violently because apparently I didn't drink enough water that day and my stomach, more like my esophagus, was not giving up anything easily. Graphic I know, but honestly thought to myself how it was necessary, and that I deserved it in some way for being so pathetic.
Let's pause for a moment. I am more active than I have been in 15 years. During that 15 years of neglect, Okay 12 years, because I started turning my health back around when Liam was born, I was steadily gaining weight despite those episodes of purging despite whether I was binging or not. I hit 300 (295+) when Liam was born. Since then, even with this disorder, I managed to improve most of my eating habits (portion sizes to be one) and lose over 60lbs since then. I'm still 15 pounds from my goal when I joined my fellows on SparkPeople to get myself back down to a healthy weight and learn to eat better and not concentrate just on ridding fat. I realize there is a lot for me to be proud of.
But I'm not. I feel ... like an arrogant prat. A self deceiving arrogant prat who believes that everyone thinks I'm an attention needing high maintenance broken son of a biscuit eater. Let me make it clear, that's not what I consciously think, it's how I feel. My rational mind and my emotional self are at odds. That's the depression I think. I dunno.
Which leads me to feeling pathetic. I see problems, and I instantly see solutions. That's the engineering brain I've been granted. I can logically plan and begin to implement changes in many things to achieve a better result. My problem comes when my emotions start setting in and I start derailing myself. I have distorted my own reality so much, that I sometimes don't even know who I am anymore. I've become paranoid (See the feeling everyone thinks I'm a prat and attention hound), lazy, inconsiderate, anti-social, and generally moody. Yet, I have wonderful friends who tell me the opposite. I want to believe them, but I don't feel it.
Anyway, the doctor has decided I need to see a professional therapist. Unfortunately their office therapist who deals with such matters has too many patients and has sent me a list of others to check. I'll work on that tomorrow, I guess. This is the confession that I did not want to give.
Now for my plea. Don't pity me. Don't step on egg shells around me. I'm owning this here and now. This is an illness like cancer, like strep throat, like depression, like my weight. I will learn to either fix it, or manage it. I welcome any advice, discourse, or words of encouragement.
This is not a letter of surrender, but a proclamation that I have seen the enemy, and t will endeavor to overcome.
P.S. For those who are disappointed, discouraged, or have lost faith in me, I do truly apologize. I just hope that one day you can forgive my deception.
Wow I'm under 240 again! Let's hope it's the last time I see 240.
Funny my last post was about an article I wrote for my BLC challenge.
This is my second one for this round. It's called Wild Card Weekend, and I decided to share it here as well.
____ Begin Article ____
I'm going to start by having you choose something.
Go to
and draw four cards. Write them down. You'll need them later.
I have been thinking about this article for a couple days, and realized I had no idea what to do. So I did the same thing I normally do and looked at the words. WILD CARD. Poker. Cards... yeah no long stretch there.
I thought to myself. �Self? What could we do with cards?� Myself answered me with �How about something dealing with Mind, Body, and Soul?� I was blown away. Why didn't I think of that?? Oh wait, I just did... But wait... that's three categories and we have four suits? Myself answered me with �Uh... Body is both muscle and nutrition right?� So after a quick �Duh� moment I hopped up, did the Dougie, and got to thinking. This is the fruit of my labors, and I can only thank myself for the immense assistance through which this work would not have come to light.
So I'm going to put it to you like this. This is a tool, not a challenge. Save it in your noggin, print it, send it to me for my John Hancock and post it next to your bed stand. Hang it over the mantle. Whatever floats your boat. On a day you are feeling you need a challenge (everyday maybe?) try choosing 4 cards (Which the link refers to an online card randomizer) again at
GO ahead and read all 52 ideas:
For fun, post your 4 cards and their suggestions to the chat thread.
For more fun, go ahead and do them.
If you don't like your choices, or you can't do one, then turn those cards (all four or just 1,2, or 3) in and pull replacements.
Personally I'm going to try and do this through the week and have one from each suit every day.
Most of all have Fun with it.
Mind - Spades
1. ) Try using your off hand for an entire activity (even using your opposite hand on the mouse, or making dinner with your off hand)
2.) Learn a new and novel task about a process you haven't done before (think chess, tai chi, the process for making a water bottle bubble maker, modeling clay or playdough, or using your off hand as in #1 above)
3.) Go for a walk for 20 minutes or more and don't listen to any music or bring along any distractions.
4.) Try getting dressed with your eyes closed
5.) Wash your hair with your eyes closed
6.) Try having a meal with someone and agree to use only visual clues to communicate... no talking
7.) Concentrate on listening to some music and smell flowers at the same time.
8.) Really listen to the outdoors and tap your fingers.
9.) Shop at a new (preferably grocery) store
10.) Try learning to count to 5 or 10 in a new language.
11.) Read something in a genre you typically don't gravitate to.
12.) Create a bingo style game and get someone to play with you or do a new puzzle (Crossword, Sudoku, 9000 piece solid BLUE puzzle of impossibility)
13.) When you wake up, while still in bed, slowly begin to move your toes. Wiggle, scrunch, or stretch them.
Physical - Clubs
1.) Do some sort of yard work. If you don't have a yard, find a park or retirement home and do a little help cleaning up.
2.) Walk the dog � If you don't have a walkable pet, find a child, or just go for a 20 minute or longer distractionless walk.
3.) Go for swim, bike, or hike
4.) Do something graceful � like yoga or tai-chi
5.) Dance. Get up and do it.
6.) Go play a sport, Tennis, Golf, Bowling, etc. Something mental and physical.
7.) Enjoy, and the key word is enjoy, some intimate physical contact (Interpret as you need)
8.) 20 minutes � Do it, whatever it is, just make it physical
9.) Think about a routine and what you can do to increase the challenge and do it!
10.) Step side to side for 60 seconds at your own pace. Then try doing it for another 30 at twice that rate.

text: Concerta I am bipolar, ADHD and OCD. I have been on lithium for years, but recently started taking Concerta. Wow! I am less agitated, less annoyed, enjoying life more, paying attention and really listening to my kids, more patient, not so hungry or tired, very motivated, very focused, more energy, able to stay on task better, improvement in procrastination, it is helping my OCD symptoms, stopped craving sugar, and I am even reasoning through spending and decided I shouldn't! This has never happened. I highly recommend Concerta!
