Adding high antioxidant foods to your diet? Don't forget about dark chocolate. It's an excellent source and way tastier than most other foods. You won't have to force yourself to eat it!
Each dark chocolate product delivers its own dose of beneficial free-radical fighters. So which should you choose? That depends.
Do you want the most antioxidants per bite? Or are you more concerned about taste or convenience?
This handy list will help you decide which dark chocolate products) will best meet your objectives. Peruse it. Use it to maximize your intake of antioxidant foods with minimum effort.
Raw chocolate is the best chocolate source of natural antioxidants. Raw retains it all.
But is it right for you? Maybe, maybe not. It doesn't taste like the highly processed chocolate most of us love. Unsweetened and raw, the taste can be harsh.
But it's such a great source of those free-radical fighting polyphenol antioxidants that it's worth a try.
So what do you need to know before you buy?
Select only raw cacao/cocoa beans or nibs that are...
Like these folks!
Choose raw cacao/cocoa powder that is...
Add it to beverages or anything that could use a chocolate boost.Or bake with it. That will probably destroy some of the antioxidants. But there'll be plenty left!
You just might learn to like it. Ok, you may have to force yourself to eat raw chocolate. It's a taste you may have to cultivate but the antioxidants it delivers could be worth it!
Raw chocolate is not a common food, so it wasn't tested by the United States Department of Agriculture. No official ORAC score available yet for this rich antioxidant food.
These chocolate products are available online and at some health food stores.
More information on raw cocoa nibs and suggested uses.
If raw is too wild for your list of antioxidant foods, try roasted cocoa powder.
Not ready for raw? Unsweetened cocoa powder is the best chocolate source of antioxidants tested by the USDA.
It has an impressive ORAC score of 80933 per 100 grams or 3.5 ounces.
That works out to about 23,124 per ounce (28g) or 3854 per tablespoon.
That makes it an excellent choice. But it has a major drawback. You can't eat it by itself. So it requires a little work to add it to your diet. But it's worth it.
Use it to bake great desserts or make hot cocoa. Here are some more delicious ways to use
dark chocolate cocoa powder.
This powerful product is waiting for you at your local store or online. Organic cocoa is available at health food stores or on the net.
Have a favorite brand of chocolate bar like Ghirardelli? Try their cocoa powder.
Try 'em all. Each will have a slightly different flavor.
You'll want this one on your list of antioxidant rich foods.
Baking chocolate wallops free radicals with an ORAC score of 49,926 per 100 grams or 3.5 ounces.
That's about 14,264 per square (ounce) or 28g.
Like cocoa powder, baking chocolate can't be eaten straight from the box. Why? Because it's extremely bitter and hard. Discovered that when I was a child.
My friends and I found a box of baking chocolate. We couldn't read yet. But we knew chocolate candy when we saw it. Or at least we thought we did. One bite set us straight! Yuck!!!
It's not candy but you can make fantastic baked goods with it. So there's no shortage of ways to use it.
With a little effort, you'll soon be enjoying delicious treats packed with antiaging antioxidants!
Believe me, one bite and you'll be glad you made the effort.
But remember to keep it away from your dog.
The other cocoa powder. Dutch cocoa powder's ORAC score is 40200 per 100 grams or per 3.5 ounces.
That's about 11486 per ounce (28g), considerably lower than natural cocoa powder.
Why the difference?
Dutch cocoa is treated with an alkali. That darkens it, makes it easier to mix with liquids and mellows the flavor. But it destroys a lot of the antioxidants.
So natural cocoa powder is the better choice of the two antioxidant foods. Gotta work for this one too. Can't eat it by itself.
Use dutched only if you want/need a milder chocolate flavor or if your recipe calls for it. Otherwise go natural!
Don't like to bake. Choose dark chocolate candies. No preparation required. They're highly processed and ready to be popped into your mouth.
Still the ORAC value is pretty impressive at 20823 per 100 grams or per 3.5 ounces or about 5949 per ounce (28g).
Only one ounce of delicious candy may satisfy your RDA of free-radical fighters. One ounce of dark chocolate candy averages only 136 calories and 8.5 grams of fat, that's doable
Remember, dark in color doesn't automatically mean high in antioxidants. Choose carefully. Need some pointers, find out what's in the best dark chocolate. Select candy with the highest percentage of cocoa you can.
Think outside the candy aisle. Dark chocolate chips and high cocoa baking bars (with sugar) are also a tasty choice.
A very convenient source of free-radical fighters to add to your list of antioxidant foods.
Extra dark chocolate too intense? Then you may need to try semisweet. Semisweet chocolate candies register an ORAC value of 18053 per 100 grams or per 3.5 ounces.
That's about 5158 per ounce (28g).
Not quite as impressive as dark chocolate but still a healthy dose.
Less cocoa means a milder chocolate flavor. Perfect way to get a good dose of antioxidants, if you're not ready for the darker stuff.
Don't forget the semisweet chocolate chips and baking bars. You can eat them like candy. They taste great right from the package, if baking isn't your thing.
One of the most delicious of the chocolate antioxidant foods.
Believe it or not, chocolate syrup has an ORAC value of 6330 per 100 grams or per 3.5 ounces.
That's about 1809 per ounce (28g).
It's not just sweet and gooey. This stuff can actually make a contribution toward your daily intake of those powerful disease fighters. Amazing!
But it also makes a big contribution toward your sugar intake!
Convenient and versatile, you can pour it on anything. Avoid milk, it interferes with the absorption of the dark chocolate antioxidants.
Or so we thought! In 2007, two studies were published that proved that milk does not hinder the body's ability to soak up those precious antioxidants.
Got milk? Go ahead and add some chocolate!
Want to make your own syrup, as dark as you like? Try this dark chocolate syrup recipe .
It's easy to make and you control the flavor. Light, medium or dark, it's your call.
Even your packet of hot cocoa mix can make a small contribution. It came in with an Orac value of 485 per 100 grams or per 3.5 ounces.
That's about 139 per ounce (28g).
Not much but it all adds up.
Better yet, make your own hot drink with cocoa powder for a bigger dose. Try this homemade hot cocoa recipe.
Now if you can't find some chocolate to add to your list of antioxidant foods something's seriously wrong. Remember, you're supposed to eat a rainbow of colors to get enough healthy free radical fighters. Dark chocolate is your bottomless pot of gold at the end of the rainbow of antioxidant foods!

Is this person for real? NL Power gives into him and agrees to hook up power ,at their expense, and now he wants to relocate his food truck? Give this guy nothing! All he's done is complain since he started this business! It seems like it's everyone's fault but his.

More like the City does not want competition for the vendors (indirectly the City) at Mile One across the street selling hotdogs. Anyway, I think it sis a bad location to begin with. Except the Strip Clubs and Dooly's ther eis nothting there to attract business. At least, on Duckworth he has more foot traffic in the daytime. But, he probally knows better for his business. Good luck to him! The City allows mobile vendors all over George Street on City Property selling sausages and trucks on George selling fries. Why would he be any different?

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Lea!
Facts about Lea
- Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier Mix
- Color: Brown/Chocolate - With White
- Age: Young
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Female
Lea's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, in need of an experienced adopter, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and not good with cats.
Lea first came to us last year during a late night rain storm. My wife woke up hearing scratching at our front door. When I open the door I found Lea cold, wet, and hungry. Since then we have been working at getting Lea ready for adoption. Lea lives as an indoor dog, she does not like to be left outdoors for long periods of time. She does her business then heads back inside. Lea walks well on a leash, but she can be a strong puller. She needs someone who has experience with Pitbulls. She is able to get along with other dogs but needs to be the Alpha dog. Loves to cuddle at night and follow you around the house. I have not exposed her to kids but I'm sure she will love them. For more questions feel free to ask.
Other Pets at Avery's Foundation
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Lea, a las cruces American Pit Bull Terrier dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a American Pit Bull Terrier for sale in las cruces, or seeking a American Pit Bull Terrier dog from a breeder in las cruces.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in las cruces already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a las cruces breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even American Pit Bull Terrier breeders who help with American Pit Bull Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in las cruces paves the way for another one to be saved.

State Sen. Tony Avella (D-Bayside) doesn't think fines given by the Department of Sanitation for putting out garbage too early are legal and that residents should contest them.
During a press conference in his Bayside office Friday, Avella charged the DOS with illegally issuing fines regarding its policy of when to place garbage on the curb the day before the scheduled collection. The DOS policy, as spelled out in its "A Summary of Sanitation Rules and Regulations" is that residential units may place receptacles for collection on the sidewalk no earlier than 5 p.m. the day before the scheduled pickup and no earlier than 4 p.m. from Oct. 1 to April 1.
But Avella believes that the policy violates the City Administrative Procedure Act, which requires that any proposed rule be published and the public be given time to comment. Once a rule is adopted, it must then be published in the Compilation of City Rules and in the City Record.
To become an official rule also requires a public hearing and a vote by the City Council.
"You can't give a ticket for a policy, just a regulation," Avella said. "The city never got that regulation approved. Someone dropped the ball."
The senator and his staff have researched the topic and say the policy may go back decades. He knows for sure it's been in effect since the Koch administration as Avella worked for the Mayor's Office at that time. Koch was first elected in 1977.
"I believe this policy is not only unenforceable, but should be void because it was not properly established under the city's rule-making procedures," Avella said.
He was alerted to the situation by several constituents who contacted his office complaining about hefty fines issued by the DOS for leaving garbage outside homes earlier than allowed. "People are getting $100 fines that can go up to $300," Avella said. "One disabled homeowner is worried she'll get a ticket because her caregiver leaves at 2 p.m. and puts out the garbage then."
The legislator believes the DOS ignored all the CAPA requirements in establishing and implementing this de facto rule, resulting in "an uninformed public and the issuance of significant fines against many alleged violators."
He has seen an uptick in complaints over the last month and blames it on the Bloomberg administration for pressuring city agencies to come up with revenue-generating initiatives. "It's just another way for the city to collect more money," Avella said.
He wants the DOS to stop enforcement of the policy and take steps to make it a formal rule. He also wants exceptions to be made for the disabled and elderly homeowners and to create separate times for commercial and residential garbage cans to be placed on the curb.
His final request may be even harder to implement. Avella is asking the DOS to immediately refund all fines paid to the city by anyone who received a summons since the policy was originally enforced.
Kathy Dawkins, spokeswoman for the DOS, said in 2006 after hearing concerns from residents and members of the City Council, including then-Councilman Avella, the agency agreed to change the long-standing time to put out garbage from 8 p.m. to 5 p.m. and no earlier than 4 p.m. from October to April.
"It was also agreed that the department would amend its Digest of Codes to reflect this change, which has been beneficial to the public by preventing waste from being stored at curbside," Dawkins said.
She did not address the legality of the policy, and Avella said Friday he had just recently written to the DOS about his concerns and is waiting for a response.

Tango: Protected for All of Humanity
The sexy, sultry, complicated tango was granted protected cultural status by Unesco's Intergovernmental Committee of Intangible Heritage. The move was made at the body's meeting this week in Abu Dhabi.
It appears Argentina and neighboring Uruguay have been at it for nearly a century, arguing over which is the true birthplace tango. The effort to talk Unesco into giving protected status was a joint one by the two countries and helps proclaim that the tango is worth preserving for all of humanity. In addition, other "intangibles" also added to the protected status list: the Procession of the Holy Blood in Bruges, Belgium and and the whistled language of La Gomera Island in the Canaries.
"Tango is a feeling that can be danced, and that feeling of course is passion," Hernan Lombardi, the minister of culture of Buenos Aires, told the AP yesterday.
From a story in the Guardian:
"Tango has come a long way. Its exact origins are murky but the music, a blend of Spanish, African and central European rhythm, is believed to have emerged from European immigrants who populated the slums and bordellos of Buenos Aires in the 1880s. Lyrics that sang of nostalgia, loneliness, lust and betrayal were matched by a dance that was simultaneously sensual and aggressive.
The founding articles of the Buenos Aires-based National Tango Academy describe Argentina's "creative validity" over a musical form that serves as the "authentic and deep-rooted expression" of the nation. Tango represents Argentina around the world like few other national art forms, it says.
That claim steps on Uruguayan toes. The world's most popular tango song, "La Cumparsita", was composed by a Uruguayan, Gerardo Matos Rodrígues, 90 years ago. It has inspired more than 2,500 variations and in 1998 became the country's national hymn by presidential decree. Argentinians respond that the best known version of the song has lyrics written by an Argentinian, Pascual Contursi,and that the tune really took off only after Carlos Gardel, the most famous tango icon of all time and an Argentinian hero, recorded his own version in 1924. Beyond dispute is that Gardel's death in a plane crash in 1935 broke millions of hearts and drove several women to suicide. His flower-strewn grave in Buenos Aires competes with that of Eva Perón as the country's most famous tomb."
When my husband and I were in Argentina a decade ago, we went to a little neighborhood club to watch the locals dance tango. We were struck by the difficulty, by the full body contact and by the ability of dancers, well beyond middle age, to move with the passion and ease of teen-agers.
To celebrate the tango news, I may now to go look for some fishnet stockings…and maybe a red rose for my hair…or maybe just a cutout to stand behind.

My name is Brady and I am 9 weeks old. My foster family just loves me because I am a smart little guy...I am learning very quickly and I am almost completely housebroken. My foster family has exposed me to kids, cats and dogs and I love everybody! I would love to find a family of my own... I have lots of puppy kisses for them!

It's never too soon to be thankful that there's one less person churning out shitty music.
It's never too soon to be thankful that there's one less person churning out shitty music.
It is an apt moment to repeat my very personal thoughts on Amy Winehouse, knowing that she received many awards from her peers for the quality of her music, and singing voice.
The personal life of a celebrity singer should not be the measure of an artist's professional qualities, and achievements. Otherwise we would be obliged to rethink our perspectives on very, many people whose professional achievements, and successes have concealed their less than attractive personal life.
I was only aware of this late singer's life when reading newspaper reports on her addictions.
I had never listened to her music until after her death;then I understood that she was one of the very, very few in contemporary popular music who not only could sing, but sing with a quality that mesmerised me sufficiently to want to hear more of her enchanting voice.
I found her voice to be not so pleasant, but even worse, the music she was singing to was so bad that I'd dislike it no matter who was singing it.
i found out about her death on the afternoon she died by a friend texting me the following:
"Amy Winehouse will of course be buried in High Barnet"
Not sure many on here will get that one.
I rather suspect that after her death it did not matter to Amy that she might have been high at the time of her demise.
That Amy was famous for her deep contralto vocals also suggests that she was incapable of reaching too many highs, which would have eliminated any possibility of her becoming an opera singer.
You appear to have completely missed the joke there.
Clue: 'Barnet' was the key word.
I know Barnet is north near Stanmore. Is this an insiders' joke?
Allow me to elucidate ... and I do so love a bit of elucidation now and again.
Barnet Fair = Hair, in cockney rhyming slang, shortened to Barnet.
High Barnet = a place in London
High Barnet = high hair.
I'm easily amused.
It's completely obscure. I would have never in a million years understood it. And I admit that having it explained to me drains some of the magic out of it. But yes, within its context, it's damn funny. A masterpiece even? It's kind of like hearing a joke that only makes sense in Cree or something...the translation helps, but...
Americans need to keep their guns so they can protect themselves from gun violence just like Nancy Lanza did. And like Chris Kyle did. And like Gabby Giffords did. And like Tom Clements did. And like Michael Piemonte. And Joseph Wilcox.
I didn't post the original quip.
Anyway it's a pity that you foreigners seldom 'get' British humour ... pretty much anything that doesn't have a US-centric frame of reference tends to be wasted on JUB.
I love the English!
but tell me, is this photo, below, real?
I've no idea I just typed 'Amy Winehouse hair' into google images and that popped up on the first page.
I guess the poor woman was using the drag queen's device of having big hair to soften the appearance of her big chin, etc.

Tony Bennett today released the music video for "Body and Soul", his duet with Amy Winehouse filmed shortly before her death. Today would have been Winehouse's 28th birthday.
'Happy Birthday'? Was this dark scarred woman at all happy?
Happy Birthday, Amy. R.I.P.
Such a loss to music.

When Do the Bells Ring for Me feat. Mariah Carey
Listen here:
The lineup on Tony Bennett's Duets II (out Sept. 20) is the musical equivalent of a dominant fantasy sports team: It's a veritable Murderer's Row of statistical monsters. At 85, Bennett himself is one of the best-selling and most lavishly rewarded singers alive, and he's surrounded here by performers who measure their Grammy collections in armloads. Norah Jones. Sheryl Crow. Aretha Franklin. John Mayer. You'd almost think Bennett's 17 guests were cast based on number of Grammys won, until you notice the conspicuous absence of Alison Krauss, Bonnie Raitt and Metallica.
Naturally, everyone here — from traditionalists like Michael Buble and Andrea Bocelli to mischievous youngsters like Lady Gaga and the late Amy Winehouse — plays by Bennett's traditionalist rules. Gaga and Bennett may update a few of the references in "The Lady Is a Tramp" (available on this page starting Sept. 19), but their duet could otherwise have been unearthed from an era long before Gaga was born. In a lovely final performance, Winehouse unleashes her formidable and sometimes overlooked chops as a jazz singer; the result, "Body and Soul," is the unmistakable highlight of this collection.
An imposingly generous 17 tracks long, Duets II drags in its second half, particularly as the stone-serious likes of Josh Groban, Andrea Bocelli and Alejandro Sanz bellow grimly alongside Bennett's easy croon. But it's still a neat and appealing trick to let Bennett's loving and ageless act brush up against hitmakers of the recent past. These folks clearly respect the hell out of Tony Bennett, and listening to Duets II, their awe is contagious.
Impressive list of singers and songs - I'll have a look for it. Thanks for the heads up.
Amy was a Virgo... I'm just sayin'
I'm a Virgo too--coincidence{?} or is there a greater force at work here? lol
On the r.E.M. board there are only like 11 replies besides mine in the Amy Tribute thread/and to add insult to injury, the OP misspelled her name as Amy Winhouse...
Frankly, I'd have expected more from a pompous group of snobby know-it-alls that recognize R.e.M. to be one of the greatest bands in rock history. Oh well...
goes to show~you never can tell. That's me in the corner, lol
okay bye!
Tony Bennett in First Top 40 Hit in 46 Years in UK
Tony Bennett and Amy Winehouse's duet version of "Body and Soul," Winehouse's last recording before her death, charted at No. 40, ahead of the Monday (19) release of Bennett's "Duets II" album on which it is featured. That's the 85-year-old American crooner's first appearance in the top 40 of the U.K. singles chart since "The Shadow of Your Smile" in 1965.
I'm resurrecting this thread for probably its last outing to record the result of today's Coroner's inquest. The verdict was misadventure and the cause of death was excessive alcohol.

Missing you Amy
It's an interesting question. I have a real fondness for irreverent jokes and dark humour but am well aware of ethical concerns. I have heard jokes about dead celebrities that have made me chuckle and, like the writer of that article says of himself, I don't think that makes me a bad person. All the Amy Whinehouse ones I've heard have been limp and obvious (Rehab references etc.), if I heard or thought of a clever one I don't think I'd hesitate to use it.
I think joking about anyone's death is distasteful.
Nas - Cherry Wine ft. Amy Winehouse
Happy Birthday Amy! We miss you so much
Miss Amy! Happy Belated! Still playing those two marvelous albums.
Born 30 years ago this month, Winehouse seemed more intuitively connected to Black soul than other White pop stars in her wake
Amy Winehouse was arguably one of the decade's strongest, most nakedly expressive singer/songwriters. Just 27 when she passed away July 23, 2011, Winehouse was a five-time Grammy winner whose multiplatinum Back to Black (2007) reinvigorated a (mostly) British remake/remodel of American soul music. The trend continued with the ubiquitous ascendancy of Adele, herself a progeny of a rich lineage of White (mostly Brit) artists including Annie Lennox, Lisa Stansfield, George Michael, and the late Teena Marie—all of whom easily crossed over to Black audiences.

A statue of Amy Winehouse has been unveiled in Camden, London (High Barnet would surely have been more appropriate) on what would have been her 31st birthday.

In all likelihood, Spartan warriors didn't actually do battle in nothing but clingy leather underwear and red capes. They wore body armor and loose drawers like kilts. But here on the Montreal set of 300 a retelling of the Alamo-style last stand that a Spartan army elite took against a Persian army 250,000 strong history is not the guiding force. It's what looks cool.
''That's the way Frank drew it,'' says director Zack Snyder. He's referring to Frank Miller, a cult-star comic-book creator best known for Sin City and Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. Snyder, a buff, energetic 40-year-old who got his start in commercials and scored with 2004's Dawn of the Dead remake, debated tinkering with Miller's concept of Spartan attire, circa 480 B.C., but went with the nearly naked look. And therein lay a problem. It wasn't long before the iron-pumping cast, headed by Scottish-born Gerard Butler (Phantom of the Opera) as Sparta's bombastic king Leonidas, began to develop some peekaboo wardrobe malfunctions. ''I never thought I'd get sick of dealing with men's codpieces,'' says costume designer Michael Wilkinson. ''But I've kind of officially reached that point.''
The public's appetite for them these days is anyone's guess. In 2000's Gladiator, Russell Crowe famously bellowed, ''Are you not entertained?'' Back then, audiences certainly seemed to be. The bloody, R-rated saga grossed $458 million worldwide and won five Oscars. But a funny thing happened on the way back to the Forum. Even as studios rushed more historical epics into production, audiences at least American ones turned indifferent. Troy, starring Brad Pitt, grossed only $133 million domestically. Oliver Stone's lambasted Alexander, starring Colin Farrell's crazy blond hairdo, followed with just $34.3 million. And after opening in May 2005, Ridley Scott's Kingdom of Heaven limped to $47.4 million.
By June 2005, Hollywood was nursing a nasty Gladiator-clone hangover. In the midst of all this, Snyder was taking meetings at Warner Bros., the very home of underperformers Troy and Alexander, to seal a deal on...another historical epic. ''In some ways, I was able to spin that whole bad-box-office thing,'' Snyder says. A little-known fact certainly helped: Troy, Kingdom, and Alexander each grossed about three times as much overseas as domestically. (Troy's worldwide gross reached nearly half a billion dollars.) With a story set mainly on the Grecian battlefield at Thermopylae and a largely non-American cast, 300 seemed well positioned to appeal to foreign audiences. And Snyder was promising not just a lot of blood, but new blood: ''I said, 'Listen. The genre is ripe for reinventing, because you have this glut of sword-and-sandal pics. So let's reinvent it.'''
Snyder's plan was to make a kickass, hard-R-rated action movie that felt like anything but a period piece. It would be shot almost entirely on bluescreen soundstages with computer-generated backgrounds added later. CG would also be used to create geysers of spurting blood worthy of Jackson Pollock, the better to control the precise level of the gore if the MPAA's ratings board found it all too much. The battle scenes would be filled not with conventional swordfights but with post-Matrix slow-to-fast-motion mayhem, heavy on impalements and decapitations. In short, it would be what Snyder's wife and producing partner, Deborah Snyder, describes as ''a ballet of death.''
The hardcore tone concerned Warner execs. They pushed Snyder to consider aiming for a PG-13. But as Deborah Snyder recalls, ''Zack put his foot down. Either they were going to do it as an R, or we were going to walk away and try to do it somewhere else.'' Says Warner president Jeff Robinov, ''As you looked at the storyboards on how he was going to shoot the movie, there was no real way around an R.'' The director won his fight. The catch was that he had to hack the budget to below $65 million about one-third of what Troy reportedly cost. A tight 60-day live-action shoot began in fall 2005, and Warner got busy positioning 300 to the obvious fanboy-heavy, Sin City-loving audience. The studio organized a Q&A panel with Snyder and Miller last July at San Diego's Comic-Con International, where they showed preview footage so gory and spiked with nudity it couldn't be posted on the Internet, thanks to MPAA rules about trailer content.
According to Snyder, Warner had given up on trying to appeal to a female audience. Then a pair of test screenings changed all that. ''We got, like, a 100 percent recommend from women under 25,'' says the director. ''They don't even get that kind of score on a romantic comedy.'' Why did women respond? In Miller's original graphic novel, Leonidas' wife, Queen Gorgo, appears only in passing. In the movie, Queen Gorgo (Brit Lena Headey) is a front-and-center partner to Leonidas, calming his nerves in bed (while both are very, very naked) and getting her own new subplot about political corruption as Leonidas marches off to war.
''At first I very much disagreed with it,'' Miller says. ''My main comment was 'This is a boys' movie. Let it be that.''' But the Snyders felt strongly that Leonidas needed something specific to fight for, and that female ticket buyers needed someone to identify with. The preview scores vindicated them. ''Those numbers came back, and Warner said, Wow, we need to rethink this a bit,'' says Snyder. Instead of spending big on one 30-second Super Bowl TV spot, Warner sprinkled previews into more female-friendly TV shows, including Grey's Anatomy, Heroes, Lost, and American Idol.
Marketing the movie overseas may turn out to be more vexing. The studio had banked on how well sword-and-sandal movies play abroad, but when 300 was unveiled at the Berlin Film Festival in February, the filmmakers got some hostile reactions from journalists. ''I was getting bombarded with political questions,'' says Snyder. Some Europeans saw Leonidas' lone-wolf march against the Persians as an allegorical defense of President Bush's incursion into Iraq. ''When someone in a movie says, 'We're going to fight for freedom,' that's now a dirty word,'' says Snyder. ''Europeans totally feel that way. If you mention democracy or freedom, you're an imperialist or a fascist. That's crazy to me.''
But movies become what their audiences make of them, whatever a director might intend. Which brings us to one more wild card in the 300 launch: the gay factor. While Queen Gorgo's topless interlude will get the hormones of adolescent males firing, it's hard to predict what they'll make of Xerxes, the eight-foot-tall Persian conqueror who looks like a glam-rock refugee. He's played as a fey, sexually ambiguous figure by Brazilian-born actor Rodrigo Santoro (currently an ill-received new character on Lost). ''He's this giant,'' says Santoro of Xerxes, ''who believes he's a god. He's very manly, but at the same time has a feminine side.'' And why is that? ''Because, being a god, he's allowed to have every quality.'' The scenes of a bejeweled, long-fingernailed Xerxes offering King Leonidas peace in exchange for ''submission'' have a decidedly sexual undertone. Snyder says that's not accidental, that it's intended to make young straight males in the audience uncomfortable: ''What's more scary to a 20-year-old boy than a giant god-king who wants to have his way with you?''
The movie, true to Miller's vision, is also loaded with sweaty hunks running around in those tight leather Speedos and capes. None of this is played for gay appeal, but could induce snickering among some teens. Snyder shrugs it off. ''Some people have said to me, 'Your movie is homoerotic,' and some have said, 'Your movie's homophobic.' In my mind, the movie is neither. But I don't have a problem with people interpreting it the way they'd like to.'' As long as they buy tickets first.

50 Kirby to Burton
Cablegram UN105 NEW YORK, 9 February 1948, 8.58 p.m.
Your UNY60. [1]
1. I am sorry that you have again seen fit to telegraph me in a manner objectionable both in form and in substance without even the courtesy of making the telegram secret and personal to me. [2] This was particularly disturbing after your telephone call which led me to think that you could indicate views contrary to mine without being offensive. [3]
2. I am not going through the telegram in detail but I resent particularly the implication that I think I 'should at all times agree with the other members of the Committee on a course of action' or that I have so acted during the performance of my task, an implication which is most unfair to me.
3. The present urgent situation requires help from you rather than telegrams of this nature which certainly do not encourage persons in my position to put themselves out considerably in an endeavour to assist your Department.

Hi everyone, I'm fairly new to this site, and this is my first time posting. My husband and I are building a home and I'm overwhelmed with all the decisions we have to make. We had originally planned to get tile flooring in entry, kitchen, and bathrooms. The plan was to also install the heated mats. I met with our flooring provider this week and he told me the mats are very expensive. Really don't mind the option of vinyl (loved having vinyl in these areas in our last home and keeps the budget in check). My question is... will it look strange if I have vinyl on the floors and then have a tile surround in our shower and around the tub? Has anyone done this and have pictures or feedback? |

There are very nice looking vinyls out there. As long as you're coordinating the colors and patterns, you'll be fine. |
Sure. This is fairly common. I'd not worry about mixing. As weedy says, choose something that is complimentary and you'll be fine. |

I had the following phormium cultivars planted in my z10 socal yard about 8 months ago: Apricot Queen, Surfer, Flamingo, Jack Spratt, Pink Panther, Purpurceum, Rubra, Sundowner, Yellow Wave. I watched the contractor place them in a full sun location and go to great lengths to provide good drainage including several inches of crushed rock under the soil and a french drain. I have been careful not to over water and have not applied any fertilizer (inorganic or organic), however the planting soil is well composted. Question: My Phormium are beginning to look ragged. I am not sure if I should clip the brown tips and the undergrowth, or is there some other remedy? Thanks for any help that those with more experience can offer. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Yes you will need to clip the old dead leaves if you want to keep them tidy. Also lookout for 'reverted' leaves on some of the unstable cv. these are easily removed by pulling the entire leaf fan from the clump. If they are happy you will need to divide them every 3 years or so (unless they stay dwarf)to keep them from becoming too large. They don't particularly enjoy being dug up so I just split them with a shovel or axe and remove a portion from the ground (which can be planted elsewhere). Chad |
Thanks Chad. Good advice. I am surprised that I got any advice at all since I didn't spell phormium correctly in the title and asked about an australian native in a new zealand native forum. |
Actually it is a South African forum... You don't say where in southern California you are, but many of the more colorful foliage forms of Phormiums will sunburn in full sun if not near the coast, and they get exposed to 85/95F degree weather at mid-day. The forms with recurved foliage as opposed to upright are the most prone to sun burning, especially the yellow leafed forms. They usually do better in hot areas if they only get morning sun or dappled shade. I don't know why your contractor would have gone to all the trouble of french drains for these, as they are not that sensitive, but they do appreciate a moisture retentive yet well drained soil. They aren't sensitive to fertilizers in the same way as Protea family members. If you are getting lots of dried out leaves and burnt tips, rather than sunburnt foliage, it is more likely a problem of too much or not enough water. If the watering regimen is correct, they shouldn't be showing signs of dead leaves and dead leaf tips on such relatively young plants, and should have settled in after 6 months of being planted out. You'd probably have a better idea of what is wrong with how yours are being grown if you look around your neighborhood for Phormiums which are doing well of the same cultivars. I've seen them have problems with mealybug at the base of the leaves/root crown if they don't get good air circulation or are planted too deep or leaf bases are covered by mulch, and/or they can dry out too fast if the root crowns become exposed because they may have been planted too high. They should be thriving if you are near the coast, and they get the right amount of watering, as these are nearly indestructible plants in the right spot. You will need to keep an eye on plants which have the foliage revert to more boring green, as these parts of the plants will overtake the more colorful foliage. |

Hi everyone. I have been home in less than 5 weeks to spend time with friends and my family, read books and hibernate. But now the time has ended and I find myself faced with prospect of school because the truth about college is, you're getting a lot of work and you're not gonna wanna do it. If you want to cry over how much homework you have, you at least have to remember what do you have for homework? By an agenda, use your phone, whatever works for you. Because if you don't there will be that one assignment that's really simple and just really easy and you will forget it and you will be really sad. Number two, avoid the internet. I've spent the past month going 12 hours straight on the internet too. But we're going to have to do this [unknown] yourself together for the next semester and don't give yourself 5 hours on Tumblr just because you have 5 pages for homework. I know, I've been there too, just stuck. And lastly, try something new. If something didn't work last semester, don't do it again. I know how tempting it is when you're typing your notes in class and you see that little number on your mailbox slowly increasing. But, if you lie to write your notes in class but then you find your inner [unknown] suddenly taking over and you focus more on your masterpiece than a lecture. It's time to pullout the laptop. So although the end of winter break is tough, it's okay. You can stop procastinating. You can end up your grades always having a mental breakdown. Just keep calm and carry on. And I'll see you soon. Bye.

411 Sir John Latham, Minister to Japan, to Sir Frederick Stewart, Minister for External Affairs
Dispatch S-39 TOKYO, 18 April 1941
I have the honour to report that yesterday I called upon Mr.
Chuichi Ohashi, Vice-Minister for Foreign Affairs, and discussed with him a number of subjects.
2. Treatment of Foreigners. In the first place I thanked him for the speech [1] which he recently made to the Governors of Prefectures in which he spoke of the discredit accruing to Japan when foreigners were discourteously treated, and appealed for proper treatment of foreigners by officials and private citizens.
3. As I have already reported in My S-29 [2], the French Commercial Attache [3] was very badly treated by Police at Kobe recently, and the Minister's speech was made in pursuance of a promise which he had given that he would speak strongly on the matter to Government officials.
4. Herman Solf. I explained to Mr. Ohashi that Australia held Mr.
Solf in internment only on behalf of the Government of the United Kingdom, and that the Australian Government would act in accordance with any instructions received from the authorities in the United Kingdom.
5. I took the opportunity of mentioning that I had recently heard from the University of Melbourne that classes were being held in internment camps for the education of prisoners, and that the Australian Universities were about to confer in order to see whether it was possible to work out a scheme for holding examinations for interned students and giving them credit for University purposes. I said that Australia was following a course exactly opposite to which Hitler had followed in Czechoslovakia and Poland, where he had deliberately destroyed higher education.
6. Rt. Hon. W. M. Hughes-Broadcast. I referred to the complaint that Mr. Hughes had made a broadcast on the 26th February last in which he had used aggressive and provocative language towards Japan. [4] I explained that Mr. Hughes had made no broadcast on the date mentioned, that he had not used the words alleged in any broadcast, and that in a broadcast in February in which he had referred to Japan, what he said was neither aggressive nor provocative. I then handed Mr. Ohashi a Note Verbale a copy of which I enclose [5] to which was attached a copy of the broadcast of the 16th February.
7. I asked that in view of these facts the Minister's complaint should be withdrawn. Mr. Ohashi said he would read the broadcast and would communicate with me upon the matter. [6]
8. Customs Restrictions. Recently the importation of some 274 classes of goods into Australia was prohibited or restricted apparently as a measure towards conserving Foreign Exchange. (No information whatever has at the date of writing been sent to the Legation in respect of this matter, and I have had to handle it as best I could upon the basis of material published in the Japanese press. Before I left Australia I was assured that special care would be taken to supply me with prompt information of any governmental action which might raise questions in Japan).
9. The material in the Japanese press showed that the action taken was of a general character and was not specifically directed against Japan. Nevertheless, as I have reported in my telegram No.
188 [7], the press complained, and alleged that, because Japan was affected, though only to a slight intent [sic], the measures taken were intended to be hostile to Japan. The press asked that Japan should take 'strong action' against Australia.
10. I told Mr. Ohashi that these statements looked like deliberate attempts to create bad feeling. I reminded him that he himself had referred, in conversation with the British Ambassador [8], to this Australian action as an example of hostility to Japan, and I said that there was not any justification whatever in this case for such an allegation. The Vice-Minister did not dispute what I said, but stated that the Government was engaged in examining the economic restrictions imposed upon Japan trade by the United States of America, Great Britain, Canada and Australia. He particularly referred to the refusal of Canada to sell wheat to Japan. I replied that he knew one reason why restrictions were imposed, namely that so many goods went through Japan to Germany, and I said further that he must recognize the position created by the war and the necessity in the case of all countries concerned of conserving their resources, 11. Mr. Ohashi asked me more than once in the course of the conversation whether I had seen any statement made in Japan that Japan intended to attack Australia. I replied that there was so much talk and propaganda about Southward expansion and exclusion of all British interests from Asia, etc. etc., that it was not a matter for surprise that there was uneasiness in countries south of Japan.
12. I have observed in the case of both Mr. Matsuoka, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, and Mr. Ohashi, the Vice-Minister, that they are apparently most concerned to convince me that Japan has no designs against Australia. On several occasions they have made such a statement to me. When I refer to the fact that Australia is interested in the security of the Islands near Australia and of all British possessions, it has appeared to me that a different turn has been given to the conversation.
13. As I have already said in my despatches, my view of the attitude of Japan in relation to what is called 'Southward expansion' is that Japan intends to bring about the expansion of Japanese power by gradual degrees in Indo-China, Thailand, Malaya, Burma and the Netherlands East Indies, the expansion to be quite peaceful, unless it is opposed. I am inclined to believe that there is no definite design against Australia at the present time.
If the earlier expansive steps were successfully taken, Australia could then be dealt with in due course and as required.
14. As I left the Vice-Minister, I remarked to him that Japan had made a pact with Russia. I said 'I hope you have better luck with it than Finland, or Poland, or Estonia, or Latvia, or Lithuania.
They all had pacts with Russia'. The Vice-Minister laughed unconstrainedly, and did not resent in any way the suggestion that Russia might not be entirely reliable. From various sources I have heard that Japan is not inclined to put very much trust in the agreement with Russia, and that it is doubtful whether even a single soldier will be removed from Manchukuo as a result of the pact.

Dr. Martin Luther King Would Have Supported Affirmative Action
Dr. King wrote:
"It is impossible to create a formula for the future which does not take into account that our society has been doing something special against the Negro for hundreds of years. How then can he be absorbed into the mainstream of American life if we do not do something special for him now, in order to balance the equation and equip him to compete on a just and equal basis?"
"The struggle for rights is, at bottom, a struggle for opportunities . In asking for something special, the Negro is not seeking charity. He does not want to be given a job he cannot handle. Neither, however, does he want to be told that there is no place where he can be trained to handle it. So, with equal opportunity must come the practical, realistic aid which will equip him to seize it. Giving a pair of shoes to a man who has not learned to walk is a cruel jest." (M.L. King, Why We Can't Wait)
