Paul Bangay
Today, we meet Paul Bangay, one of Australia's most acclaimed landscape designers. He's a busy man: his life is divided between Australian and overseas commissions and his own garden in Daylesford in Victoria. He has a new book out, Paul Bangay's Guide to Plants.
He talks about his love of geometric perfection, his use of ornaments, the inspiration of Andre Le Notre, who designed the garden of the Chateau de Vaux-le-Vicomte in 1657 and went on to work on the gardens at the Palace of Versailles, and whether there is an Australian style in gardens.

My parents never gardened anything. We had a small rented house out on the northern beaches of Sydney. Everywhere was the bush. It was our garden, our playground and our refuge. Anything else seemed inspid and false. In my own yard I have planted lots of local gum trees, tea trees, grevillea, wattle,coastal shrubs etc. The birds, bandicoots and possums come here. The honeyeaters nest every year. I planted haphazardly without design but it suits me and my native friends.

I listened with interest but without admiration to Paul Bangay's interview. I am training to be a landscape architect and am just so disappointed (here I'm being polite) that such a poor designer is so successful in Australia. His work is conservative beyond belief and without any sensitivity towards this country's unique spirit, aesthetics and conditions. I find it astonishing that he could talk with pride about his design for a Griffith client, creating lawns (plural!) the size of football fields and other completely unsustainable features in an otherwise parched landscape. The client had access to irrigation and that was good enough for Bangay. As professionals we surely need to use our sensitivity to carefully guide clients into making better choices for our planet.

I agree that a sustainable approach to garden design needs to be mandatory. I believe that we still, however, need to look for a framework to establish a developing originality. Though Paul Bangay services a market he doesn't appear to reference ideas. If, for example, he uses geometry and symmetry to convey order and proportion would he consider using other mathematics such as Chaos Theory or the work of Fibonacci to do that and would they offer a more powerful dynamic? The latter offering an opportunity for the client to be a vital part of the garden as organism. I personally crave experimentation and enquiry from garden designers - imagination linked with understanding to produce something unexpected. And, don't clients have a life story? What about their passions, sufferings, travel, childhood experiences, family background. We know the story about Robin Boyd who had 6 or so meals with a client without talking about the house he had been commissioned to build. Unfortunately we seem to be stuck. Finally, we could learn from people such as Fernando Caruncho and Tim Richardson who believe that the site itself may have a voice - leaving the designer somewhat in the back seat. Afterall, isn't the invisible part the most important in gardens?

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Legacy Reserves LP Announces Second Quarter 2013 Results
MIDLAND, Texas, Aug. 5, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Legacy Reserves LP ("Legacy") (Nasdaq:LGCY) today announced second quarter results for 2013. Financial results contained herein are preliminary and subject to the final, unaudited financial statements included in Legacy's Form 10-Q to be filed on or about August 7, 2013.
A summary of selected financial information follows. For consolidated financial statements, please see accompanying tables.
|Three Months Ended
|Six Months Ended
|June 30,
|March 31,
|June 30,
|(dollars in millions)
|Production (Boe/d)
|Net Income (Loss)
|Adjusted EBITDA (*)
|Distributable Cash Flow (*)
|* Non-GAAP financial measure. Please see Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow table at the end of this press release for a reconciliation of these measures to their nearest comparable GAAP measure.
Q2 2013 highlights include:
- Production decreased 1% to 19,516 Boe/d, as the impact of extensive third-party plant downtime and natural gas line pressure issues in the Permian Basin was partially offset by production from new development projects in other parts of the Permian Basin and improved production in the Texas Panhandle due to relieved Q1 infrastructure issues.
- We generated $118.4 million of revenue and a record $67.9 million of Adjusted EBITDA representing increases of approximately 9% and 6%, respectively, over results in the prior quarter. A key driver of these improvements was improved oil differentials in the Permian Basin and Rocky Mountain regions.
- After deducting $17.0 million of maintenance capital expenditures, we generated $38.8 million of Distributable Cash Flow or $0.68 per unit, representing an 11% increase over Q1.
- We announced a $0.58 per unit quarterly distribution, marking our 11 th consecutive quarterly increase and resulting in 3.6% year-over-year growth. Our quarterly distribution is covered by our Distributable Cash Flow by 1.17 times.

Does it really matter???
Find a Conversation
|Sat, 05-22-2010 - 3:32pm
We had MC this week and she said he needed to deal with some issues before we could come back together.
|Sat, 05-22-2010 - 4:03pm
He does need to be totally transparent, and yes, you should think thru what you truly want to find out.
|Tue, 05-25-2010 - 9:01am
For me, I needed to know enough to get a good idea about what happened for a couple of reasons.
I felt like I was on the outside and they were on the inside. As long as there were secrets they had this special club between the two of them, the EA club. They had special moments and deep conversations. As long as they kept that between the two of them, they would remain special, but once they hit the light of day, they were cheap and tawdry.
Him telling me everything I thought I needed to know was part of him being an open book. If he couldn't do at least this, then we had nothing to talk about.
He knew what happened, he knew the truth of it, and even though I didn't know, he expected me to take his word for certain things and trust his judgment because he knew, he was there and he knew how he felt and what he did. Well, he showed me that I could not trust him at all, so there was no way I was going to trust his assessment of what he knew and base major decisions on his "good" judgment. I felt like there was a huge part of my life that I was missing and that was a total lie. I needed to get the full picture in order to make good decisions regarding my own life. One of the things that upset me the most about him keeping his EA from me was that he was keeping relevant information from me that would affect every one of my decisions if I had known. Of course, this was why he kept it from me, he knew he couldn't keep the EA if I knew. He manipulated me by withholding the truth of my life and I still resent that. My need to know stemmed from that and it was only when I felt I had enough information to ascertain the truth for myself did my need to know abate.
DH and I recently had a conversation about how much info we share with each other on a daily basis. He doesn't have a need to tell me every tidbit on info he gets or about every experience he has, but he makes sure to share with me significant happenings that change who he is or how he sees the world. Right there, in a nutshell is exactly why we all need to know. An A is incredibly significant. The WS has a significant relationship with someone else that changes who they are. We, as their partners, need to know about this, we need to know so that we can make sound decisions based on as much information as we can get. The withholding of the information is a continuation of the manipulation we experienced during the A.
The other part of this is that the information will come out eventually and it is a particularly nasty form of torture. The WS thinks he is protecting the BS from hurt when really he is protecting himself from having to own up to the horrible things he did. Who WANTS to recount out loud to his W his adventures in affair land and face the hurt? WS are cowards of the worst kind and it is not surprising they don't have the equipment to actually do this incredibly hard thing. DH finally got why I needed to know everything when I explained it to him this way: Finding out is like being stabbed multiple times in one's torso. You almost bleed out, you deal with the pain, you get medical attention, you go through physical therapy, you scab up, your body replaces the blood, and you think it is over, you think you are through the worst of it. But, no, out of no where you get stabbed again, only this time it is more painful and harder to heal because of your previous injuries. Eventually, if this keeps happening, you become numb, you loose feeling, and you remove yourself from the situation out of self preservation. He understood this and finally told me everything.
Essentially, you want the bandaid to be pulled off all at once, you want to deal with it all right now, get through it and resume your regularly scheduled life. He is hedging his bets. What he doesn't tell you now, he may never have to tell you and he would rather not tell you anything, so he keeps as much as he can close to his chest hoping he will never have to look in your eyes, and watch you cry as he has to face what kind of a man he let himself become. The thing is, you will probably find out and he will have to face. These things are insidious. Either he will make a mistake and tell you thinking he has already told you, or you will put it together yourself, or someone else will tell you. It may be next week or years from now. It is selfish of him to hold this information back, but what do you expect from someone who is selfish enough to have an A?
Your questions are more than reasonable. Essentially, you need to know the depth of his involvement, you need to know who the relationship started and who did the pursuing, you need to know how it was conducted, and you need to know how he is going to keep it from happening again. If he is serious about rebuilding, he will respect this need to know, he will do what you need him to help you heal, and answering these questions is doing just that. A bit of a warning,though, you will probably need to hear the answers more than once, and the answers will change as he processes the whole thing.
It helped when I stopped ambushing DH with my questions. We set aside an hour once a week to talk about it. It really helped with my anger knowing he was going to answer my questions and I was able to stop obsessing over it.

I have been asking my husband why for weeks and he kept saying he didn't know. Right before I left for my week trip to Miami I was upset and fearful about going. We talked and he answered. You know he had his affair because she was pretty, witty and he worked with her everyday. Her husband was a bast*rd and she needed comfort. The clincher was she did not have CHILDREN. He did not have to be bothered with being a father when he communicated with, and fantasized about her. If was just what I thought. A FANTASY LAND, escape from real life with her. He said I wasn't at fault and he did know I was everything he needed, but chose only to see the negative side of marriage and family life. When I first found out and he told me it was never physical, I attacked him verbally. Telling him he was a little man. A boy who never grew up and an ungrateful SOB who didn't deserve to be married to me. I was so angry. I sat on the knowledge of his EA for over a week. When I ambushed him and nearly went berserk or went berserk. When he looked at me and said he f*cked up that he wanted me, the kids and our life, the anger just bleed right out of me. He said he would have to show me in action that he wanted me because I said I couldn't trust him ever again, however, it took 3 weeks and a text to the OW to stop their communicating, I guess I can thank her for that (I still check cell phone records). She said she couldn't do it anymore (I hope that lasts) I now do not want to know anything more. I am enough for him. I believe that now. If he somewhere down the road doesn't feel it or see it oh well, I'll cross that bridge when it comes. When I stay in the now and focus on how things are today I feel better. I am thankful I have many years of 12 step recovery for AA and Alanon which come with get tools on how to live life to the fullest when there is addiction in your life. EAs are a type of addiction. They help numb the pain and stress of daily life and low self-esteem. I am introducing romance in my dealing with my husband. He teased me this morning when I texted him a sweet loving text. I told him he was the man I wanted in my life and I was a romantic and I wasn't going to not practice it in our marriage because he wasn't. I told him it may rub off on him and if it didn't I wasn't going to stop. Now I am going to be me in this marriage for better or worse. I am going to do things that I am going to enjoy doing because it is what I want. No more hiding it because I am afraid it won't be returned. Life is too short and my life before I found out was only slightly crappy and now I know why. Hopefully "IT" is gone and we are going to move forward, which sounds like what you two are doing. He is there in the marriage and going to counseling. My only fear is when we stop working on it so hard as time goes by we may slip back into this sh*t again. I know 13 years ago it was internet sex chat rooms that threw us into counseling. We are going to have to stay vigilant and not let our guard down ever again. "Oh, glory days."
Take care

Funny I keep asking the questions and the answers didnt help me either and yet they are still in mind making me insane
I think its inherit to let something go you must first understand it
I think we are in a unique situation
I dont think we are capable of understanding what makes other people tick.
So I think we just pray it fades because the answers arent coming
|Wed, 06-09-2010 - 7:47pm
New to this board...read your post, sounds familiar.
I have been trying to dig answers out of my husband for weeks. Only when I find proof in black and white ( cell bills, secret email accts) does he come clean. He says he doesn't want to hurt me that it is over and that he wants to stay married. Why can't they understand that we need to know the whole truth and all the details before WE can decide what we want to do. I wish you the best and hope you find the answers you are looking for.

I just wanted to drop in and say hello to everyone here. I was pretty involved with this site last year when I was an atheist (which lasted for about two years). I'm not here to attempt to convince anyone of anything. I just grew pretty fond of some of the cool people here. When I left the site, I started to miss some of you guys like Nelson, Heather, and so on. So, I came back, pretty much just to say that. Ha!

I had just come on break when our translator asked me,
"Are their any virgin girls in America?"
At the time I was serving as a gate guard on FOB Diamondback in Mosul Iraq and was about halfway through my deployment. The question took me aback. What, did he think that American girls are somehow not born virgins? Or that doctors de-virgify them when they're born, kinda like the way boys get circumcised?…Continue

The cheaper dashboard
Posted by Tom Grant on December 15, 2008
- 301 Recommendations
- 0 comments
Forrester colleague Oliver Young makes a convincing argument about widgets and mash-ups:
In a business context this style of data and content presentation can be tremendously valuable, despite the relative simplicity of the application. Think of this same graphic with sales data versus plan, feature burn down rate, or project milestones over time. This information is available today, of course, however the presentation of that data is not nearly as elegant or accessible. Business intelligence software — which this application most closely resembles — is not yet focused on these simple, business-friendly applications, and thus far no mashup or widget vendors have focused on this type of solution for the enterprise.
Exactly. The framework, such as enterprise portals, for presenting this kind of information has been around for a while. The real obstacle to the "dashboard dream" has been the cost of building the dashboard--either for each user, or, preferably, by each user.
Maybe the killer apps of the next few years will be, to quote Oliver, "simple presentation mashups and widgets" (let's abbreviate them SPMWs) with one key addition: "that business users build for themselves." Understanding those business users, and knowing how to market to them, may be even trickier than building the technology itself. But these SPMWs may may be the biggest opportunity in the technology industry, particularly in people who have been avoiding a lot of the industry's technology.

It's Official: Miley Cyrus Has a Signature Style
The follow is a guest post from our friends at POPSUGAR Fashion.
So far, 2013 has been a big fashion year for a little Miss (soon to be MRS) Miley Cyrus. She's been photographed in Chanel, Valentino and Balmain (visit POPSUGAR Fashion to see those pictures now) and is well on her way to achieving that one thing every style icon has mastered: a signature look. Recently, her outfits seem to bypass most of the color spectrum, instead gravitating toward black and white accented with bright crimson lips. It gets more specific, too: beyond loving the two-toned combo, Miley's showing a serious propensity for pantsuits rather than more common red carpet dresses.
The singer's image has progressively gotten sexier as she's moved past her Hannah Montana stage, and fashion-wise, her cropped 'do seemed to usher in a whole new era of envelope-pushing fashion. Whatever the case, we love that she's turned into a dresser to watch.

[So maybe Peerbhoy wasn't trained by Zone-H from details here...
http://www.zone-h.org/news/id/4716 - More details about Peerbhoy,
http://www.infosecnews.org/hypermail/0903/16060.html - WK]
By Roberto Preatoni
We received a notice that on WikiLeaks somebody uploaded an interesting
document. It's a PDF file, called Project Ethan (after Tom Cruise's
Mission Impossible caracther?) and it refers to E2-labs very recent
plans to open in India an educational and IT security franchise network.
We downloaded the document and we found some very interesting
information in it, regarding E2-labs future plans and how the name of
Zone-H (and a few others) was used to back up the whole plan to convince
possible investors to invest money in Mr. Zaki Qureshey expansion plans.
Needless to say, Zone-H was never informed about such plans and never
gave any consent to be included in it.
The document is a financial investment porposal, made up by 28 pages. It
seems to be written by Grant Thornton, a well-known financial advisor
company. We have no doubt that the document was originally produced by
such company, it's too well structured, E2-labs and Zaki Qureshey
definitely don't posses the business skills to do that. Nevertheless,
the document it's filled by improper statements. We don't think that
Grand Thornton did it on purpose, we just imagine the situation where
they were given some statements and material by Zaki Qureshey and they
granted it for real, without verifying it. And that is bad, after all,
the entire businell proposal carry their name.
The result is a well written document meant to attract possible
investors, backed up by Grant Thornton name, which sounds to the ears of
possible investors as a guarantee that it is referring to a serious
proposal. This is probably the reason why E2-Labs Mr.Zaki Qureshey
decided to invest some money to look for Grant Thornton advocacy. Just
another case to use somebody's name for his plans.
In this article, we are going to show some excerpts from that document,
followed by some of our comments. Why did we decide to make this
document public? Because that document is yet another example of Mr.
Zaki Qureshey unethical business practices and because it's involving
directly my an Zone-H name and because this is the only way we have to
make clear to the general public that we have nothing to do with Mr.
Zaki Qureshey bogus proposals.

" Brand: Pets at Home / Type: Wooden see-saw toy for hamsters and small pets "
Looking at this from a gerbils point of view , suprisngly i find this to be a great product despite the fact that pets at home's products are normally awful.
The wood is gerbil safe and my little terrorists love to chew this and its pretty strong wood and has kept them occupied for weeks. As you may know gerbils teeth grow constasntly grow so chewing is essential , my gerbils have only hslf chewed this after 3 weeks and theyare constantyl on it !
It comes in a lovely little box and has a nice drawing on the front. The main part is a lovely looking pine wood structure holding up the main sea-saw part. The main see saw slots into the bottom structure , although this can feel a little flimsy at times it fully holds 2 fully grown gerbils ( how often run over it together at times just for the fun of it ! )
It is a little noisy when it thuds against the floor but i can forgive this for the pure fun and enjoyment it brings my little gerbils. This accompanied with some of the other wooden PAH Toys make a good addition to your gerbils cage.
A Very good product that id recommend to any gerbil owners.
Last week I was in Pets At Home (as per usual) looking for fun things for my hamsters cages. I hate to think of them bored but am limited on space. My eldest Syrian hamster, Trevor Arnold is only a few months old and tends to get very bored easily and because of this demands alot of attention as the noise from his cage can be so loud!
Now he has two cages adjoined by tubes (they are Ferplast ones) so first important point, with these wooden see-saws make sure you have plenty of room as this is bigger than it looks on the review photograph on the top of this page!
The Packaging:
This comes flat packed in purple, green and light yellow box of which two sides of the box are the same in appearance. We are told that it is 'Gnaw & Claw Interaction' Pets At Home See-Saw 'Suitable for hamsters, mice and gerbils' and is made from 100% wood, is easy to assemble and helps to keep teeth trim and healthy and there is a photograph of a rat and hamster and the see-saw. Other information listed on the box includes being told a bit about the product and contact details for Pets At Home are given as always on Pets At Homes own products.
The See-Saw:
Well what you get is several bits of pine looking natural, untreated wood. I was a bit daunted by this as I hate having to assemble anything but it really was easy, so easy in fact that apart from a photograph of the see-saw made up on the box there are no instructions given at all!
Basically you get two side bits that slot into a couple of rungs with ease and then the the long bit of wood that acts as the balance has two holes either side that slot into the side pieces via small thin bits of wood. Its all a tricky fit and you need nifty fingers and patience to put it together but one thing is good about it...once up it is sturdy and not going to collapse and I didn't need any tools or anything like that lol.
What you get is a rather large wooden see-saw and the size of this when made up is H22 x W8 x D7.8cm. It has a nice woody, fresh smell to it (least when it is new lol) and it feels and looks robust and well made. I like the fact that the bit that Trevor walks on has grooves engraved within it so he can get grip, and it is very flexible so he has to watch what he is doing or to his amazement or he gets flipped off the end lol so to me it makes him think aboutt his co-ordination and actions and as he has got used to this see-saw and he really looks like knows what he is doing lol.
The see-saw action has a rather high swing, it always when not in use goes down to one side so sticks in the air and what I appreciate about this toy is that not only does it gives exercise, teaches small pets about up and down (as hamsters in particular have no idea the difference initially about 6 inches or 6 foot as they are land dwellers of course!) it is also safe to chew on and somewhat beneficial to keep their teeth down and shorter but also this is quiet and doesn't intefere with what I'm trying to do or watch on the television or owt lol.
The only couple of things I'm not keen on about this is the really large size, hamsters, rats and mice really don't need anything this big and also this is not suitable for Dwarf or very small pets because they can't get it into action as it is too heavy for them to manipulate. Also I think this looks a bit plain and boring in its appearance in the modern cages we all seem to go for nowadays.
Trev likes this though, I just need to always makes sure he can always access it but if he poops or wees on it, it does sadly stain (as it isn't treated wood) so in my case this is not a toy he will manage to keep for very long but at £2.69 a time I think this is a good value product for what you get!
Only available from Pets At Home.

Pat's StoryToday is my birthday, and summer is almost here - ICE CREAM TIME! This ice cream is delicious, and it also brings smiling memories to me. My mother told me that when she was carrying me that she craved cherry ice cream. She laughed saying, "It is a wonder that you didn't come out blue from all the cold ice cream I ate." She made her scrumptious ice cream using evaporated milk instead of sweetened condensed milk, and Mama didn't use the lime juice and zest, but I like cherry and lime together. You can use lemon if you wish.
Celebrate with me with a dish of Mama's Cheery Cherry Ice Cream
Blue Ribbon Recipe
Notes from the Test Kitchen:
The ice cream is exceptionally creamy! We added the chocolate cookies like Pat suggests, and it took on the flavors of a chocolate covered cherry... divine.
The ice cream is exceptionally creamy! We added the chocolate cookies like Pat suggests, and it took on the flavors of a chocolate covered cherry... divine.
1 jar(s)
(10 ounce) maraschino cherries, undrained and cut into fourths (or smaller, if preferred).
1 can(s)
(14 ounce) sweetened condensed milk
3 Tbsp
lime juice
1 tsp
grated lime zest, optional
1 c
heavy whipping cream
Directions Step-By-Step
1Combine undrained Maraschino Cherries and juice, sweetened condensed milk, lime juice and lime zest in a large bowl.
4Pour into a 2 quart freezer-safe container or a 9x5-inch loaf pan. My mother used ice trays (with the inserts removed)to freeze her ice cream.
5Cover and freeze until firm. Or you can leave in the freezer overnight.
NOTE: The longer you leave it in the freezer, the firmer it gets. If you want to make ice cream sandwiches (and this makes marvelous ice cream sandwiches -chocolate cookies, YUM), you need to have it real firm.
7Cherries stain your hands. You can wear thin rubber gloves (but I can't work with them on.) So, to remove the cherry stain from your hands, you can use some lime (or lemon) juice to do the trick. Wash hands first as you normally would do, and then just dry your hands and squeeze at least one teaspoon of FRESH lime (or lemon) juice onto your palms. Rub your hands together for about 30 seconds –make sure to cover your hands completely with the fresh juice. Then rinse your hands in lukewarm water and wash with your regular hand soap and water –dry hands with a paper towel or cloth towel. The stains should be gone, but if not you can repeat the steps. You can also use a liberal amount of white vinegar (following the above steps) to remove the stains –but since the lime or lemon juice handy –I used it.

I have discussed in this space articles in the scientific literature which have raised concerns that prescription pain medications are at times being misused, if not abused.
An article in the January 15, 2008 "Annals of Internal Medicine" reminds us that there are a lot of folks out there who are quietly suffering their pain-and who perhaps are not being treated adequately for that pain.
The article dealt with the pain of sickle cell disease, a genetic red blood cell disorder which affects individuals of African, Mediterranean, or Asian background. The pain of sickle cell disease can be extreme, to the point of disabling. It affects the bones, joints, back, abdomen, and chest.
A sickle cell patient generally presents to the doctor with so-called vaso-occlusive pain, which is episodic and commonly referred to as a "crisis". The more crises a sickle cell patient has, the greater the risk of death. But there has up until now been little information regarding the daily pain some sickle cell patients experience. This issue was studied by considering over 230 sickle cell patients, who were required to complete a daily diary for 6 months.
Interestingly, the patients studied reported pain on 56% of the days; a crisis was reported on 13% of the days. 29% of patients had pain nearly every day. Only 15% rarely suffered pain. But the patients only sought treatment on 4% of the days during the study period.

I understand that everybodys body is different, so taking in a certain estimated amount of calories could be inaccurate... so my question is.. do you feel any different whenever you are in an anabolic state compared to being in a catabolic state? I think that if you are good at determining exactly when/what to eat based on these feelings, it will help you understand how to lose fat easier on a personal level...
right now i just did cardio an hour ago, and i had a shake/yogurt right after, and now i am starving and feeling kinda like crap... i don't know if i am in a catabolic or anabolic state right now, but maybe because im feeling tired im catabolic and need to eat?
thanks for help

This is so crazy, Ive been having the samething also since yesterday. I called the doctor & she told me that it could be yearly yearly signs of labor. She also said it could last for a few hours to over a week. She did say to drink water, take a bath & just lay down to see if that helps. For me it didnt really work but good luck.
Hope that helps a little!
JCragg:I get this, and have had them for weeks but they don't hurt so I don't worry about them. My drs don't seem worried.
This, although in the last couple days mine have started being painful (today especially).
If you start to get really bad cramps with it, I'd be worried. At our child-birth class, our teacher told us that if you have a continuous hardened uterus that won't stop, accompanied by painful cramping, and sometimes (but not always) bleeding, you could be having a placental abruption. In that case you would need to go to the hospital immediately because that is life threatening to the baby!
But since I'm assuming you haven't had cramping like that, then maybe it is early labor? I've had lots of BH for months now, but none that lasted more than a minute or two so I'm not sure exactly what's going on in your case. Hopefully they'll calm down for you!

Wildfires burning near Wenatchee, GoldendaleJuly 30, 2013 @ 8:29 am
WENATCHEE, Wash. (AP) - Two big wildfires that started last week continue to burn on the east side of the Cascades in Washington.
Fire managers say about 1,300 firefighters are trying to control a fire that has burned about 32 square miles around Satus Pass and closed Highway 97 between Goldendale and Toppenish.
Nearly 300 firefighters are working at a wildfire that has burned about 66 square miles southeast of Wenatchee in the Colockum Pass area. The fire has burned five homes and several outbuildings. Dozens of residences have been evacuated.
A community meeting was held Monday night at the fire station in Malaga. The Wenatchee World reports ( http://is.gd/MBKC2C) about 60 people at the meeting were told the fire is contained on the north side but it could continue growing west and south.

NEW YORK (AP) _ Khalif Wyatt scored 33 points and Anthony Lee had 21 _ both career highs _ and Temple, despite not making a field goal over the final 5 1-2 minutes, upset No. 3 Syracuse 83-79 on Saturday in the Chevrolet Gotham Classic at Madison Square Garden. The Owls (9-2), coming off a 10-point home loss to Canisius, used the combination of Wyatt from the outside and Lee inside to keep Syracuse at bay. The Orange led by two at halftime but never took a lead in the second half even though there were four ties, the last at 59-59 with 10:23 to play.
C.J. Fair had a career-high 25 points for Syracuse (10-1), which had its 52-game regular-season nonconference winning streak snapped. Jim Boeheim remained at 900 wins, two behind Bob Knight for second place all-time among Division I men's coaches. Duke's Mike Krzyzewski has 938 wins.

Christmas morning my husband dragged himself out of bed a little too early considering we'd been up the night before to start breakfast in the tradition of my grandfather- scrambled eggs, sausage and bacon.
The whole house warmed up with the smells of fat frying while I got myself ready and set up the extra tables.
Presents swarmed the tree and overflowed to the couch nearby- the white couches, snowflakes and sense of anticipation making a winter wonderland of my living room.
Wonder Boy had fallen right to sleep after being reminded that Santa could not come if he was awake, dreams of his green monster truck with a (remote) control still dncing in his sugar-laden head.
When I finally ran up the stairs to wake him, he excitedly looked at me and asked, "Is there snow?"
I don't know where he figured out that it would autimatically snow on Christmas, but we had already talked about the fact it was too warm to snow, and we would go visit the snow when it got close enough.
So, instead of an excited little 3-year-old rushing to see what Santa left under the tree, he laid back down, disappointed, tears filling his eyes since there was no snow.
I had to remind him about Santa leaving him a present, and the fact my brother and his fiancee were already downstairs for him to get out of bed and swoop down the stairs.
Everything was done as relatives arrived, as Wonder Boy played with his green monster truck with a remote control, still clad in striped Christmas jammies.
Most of the morning is a blur of busy- hosting Christmas for 14 is busy work- but it in all of the running around I noticed something else too.
Beauty and peace, hard to imagine being present in flying wrapping paper but filling the air like the scent of a pine tree the entire time we celebrated Christmas.
Every dinner, every hug, every time my son ran smiling to hug another family member.
The brother and future sister-in-law doing in to help put breakfast dishes away and cleaning up after everyone, leaving me a moment to rest and Mr. Wonder a chance to nap on the floor surrounded by Christmas toys and pieces of glittering paper.
I am blessed with wonderful family that comes together in such a beautiful way.
I am blessed for a son who is so loved and so happy and giving.
I am so blessed to have so much love.

A bitwise combination of the UriComponents values that specifies which parts of the current instance to return to the caller.
- format
- Type:
One of the UriFormat values that controls how special characters are escaped.
Return ValueType: SystemString
A String that contains the components.
uriComponents is not a combination of valid UriComponents values.
The current Uri is not an absolute URI. Relative URIs cannot be used with this method.
When Query or Fragment is specified alone, the return value includes the delimiter. The Scheme, UserInfo, Host, Port, and Path components do not include the delimiter. For all other UriComponents values, and combinations of values, the delimiters are included in the returned value.
The components are returned in the order that they appear in the URI. For example, if Scheme is specified, it appears first.
When International Resource Identifier (IRI) and Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) support are enabled, the number of characters returned in the String increases. Punycode names used to support IRI contain only ASCII characters and always start with the xn-- prefix. When IRI and IDN are enabled, Unicode surrogate characters are handled correctly by the GetComponents method.
For more information on IRI support, see the Remarks section for the Uri class.

Cary Russell, Director of Defense Capabilities, GAO
The F-22 Raptor made its combat debut against the Islamic State in Syria this week. The F-22 project cost about $70 billion over a decade. The Pentagon expects the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter to be combat-ready in four years, and it's already the most expensive weapon system in Defense Department history. Cary Russell, director of Defense Capabilities and Management Issues at the Government Accountability Office, estimates the cost of running the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. He told In Depth with Francis Rose after DoD activates the F-35 for combat, the cost could reach about $1 trillion.

Great online deal. my brother owns this set. I bought one as a birthday gift to a friend with no tools at all. The set comes with everything a shade tree mechanic might use.

This tool set is a great value for the cost. My husband primarily uses Craftsman tools because of the guarantee and he has never been disappointed.

This toolbox has it all in one place. What a great addition to any shop or for your trunk to take with you anywhere. This was one of the black Friday specials and we got a creep seat with it. Even without the bonus gift, this is a great set. I recommend it for anyone on your list that works on cars, around the house, or for work. Craftsman tools are the best.

I am very pleased with the tools. However the carry case will pop open while carrying and your tools will drop out.

We liked the set very much. We opened it the same day we bought it and found two tiny metric sockets missing. We called a toll free number listed in the paperwork, and the manufacturer sent right out the two sockets. So, very happy with the customer service too!

I agree with several of the post that indicate that many of the pieces are found in the bit drivers which is slightly annoying. But as for completeness in tool sets of this price range it is probably the best.

Best Combination of tools.

When I got this set I was debating between this the 263 piece and another set the Craftsman 309 piece set. I am very happy I went with this set. The 309 didn't come with a box which was the biggest deal breaker. I was going to lose pieces without the box. I think the 263 will work for me in most cases. I am sure that every now and then I will need a larger size of sockets, but that is bound to happen.

June 7 (Bloomberg) -- Australia's dollar dropped against the majority of its most-traded counterparts after the central bank held interest rates unchanged and said current policy settings are appropriate.
The Aussie fell versus the currencies of other commodity exporters including New Zealand and Canada after Reserve Bank of Australia Governor Glenn Stevens said the decision reflected "softened" prices for raw materials and a jobless rate that's been little changed at almost 5 percent. New Zealand's dollar rose as speculation eased that Europe's debt crisis will worsen, boosting demand for higher-yielding assets.
The RBA statement "sounded a little bit more downbeat than expected," said Mitul Kotecha, head of global foreign-exchange strategy in Hong Kong at Credit Agricole SA. "Gains for the Aussie dollar will be more difficult in the months ahead."
Australia's dollar fell 0.7 percent to NZ$1.3056 at 11:36 a.m. in New York, from NZ$1.3151 yesterday. It was little changed against the greenback at $1.0706, and gained less than 0.1 percent to 85.86 yen, from 85.81. The Aussie fell 0.7 percent versus Canada's dollar to C$1.0440.
New Zealand's dollar, nicknamed the kiwi, appreciated 0.7 percent to 81.98 U.S. cents, from 81.45. It touched a record 82.64 U.S. cents on May 31. The kiwi advanced 0.8 percent to 65.76 yen, from 65.24.
The Australian central bank kept the overnight cash rate target at 4.75 percent, as forecast by 23 of 28 economists surveyed by Bloomberg News. Five had predicted a quarter percentage-point increase.
Rate Bets Lowered
Swaps traders are betting the RBA will raise the rate by 20 basis points over the next 12 months, down from a forecast yesterday of 26 basis points, a Credit Suisse Group AG index showed. A basis point is 0.01 percentage point.
The kiwi rose after the European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet yesterday gave his first signal that he endorses encouraging investors to buy new Greek bonds to replace maturing securities, potentially making the euro region's sovereign-debt situation more sustainable.
