Banking, insurance operations affected
Stone throwing, bodily attacks, damage to properties and vehicles in Noida and Delhi's Okhla Industrial Estate and chopping off of the ear of a panchayat executive officer in West Bengal, allegedly by Trinamool workers for not reporting to work on Wednesday, marred the second day of the nationwide general strike.
There was mixed response to the strike call, which caused further hardship to the common man.
The protest, called by 11 central trade unions hit banking operations, the insurance sector, oil and petroleum industries, Central/State government undertakings, transport (including buses, taxis and autos), functioning of industries and working of government offices in some States.
ATMs went dry in many cities and rural areas. However, some private banks functioned. As many as 8 lakh cheques could not be cleared with Reserve Bank of India staff joining the strike. In Delhi, people continued to suffer as majority of autorickshaws and taxis stayed off the road. Long queues were seen at metro stations. DTC services were near-normal though a section of the employees extended support to the strike.
Air and train services remained normal but commuters had difficulty in reaching or coming from airports/railway stations due to non-availability of public transport. Shops and markets remained open in many places. Schools, colleges were closed and examinations postponed in some States.
The strike was called demanding urgent steps to control price rise, strict enforcement of labour laws in all places of work, social security for workers in the unorganised sector, end to disinvestment in PSUs and raising the minimum wages to Rs. 10,000 a month.

Thank You For Asking.
I have been a follower/supporter of Ron Paul since the 1970's.
At first I was anti-anything political, but when I learned in 2006 that a support group was forming for a Ron Paul for President run, I joined the movement on the internet.
In my area the Ron Paul meet up groups were heavily made up of JBS members.
So I decided to check out JBS, because I was being recruited, by JBS, I thought.
It seems the JBS was founded by the Koch brothers father, along with the multi-million dollar business empire they now own.
This is an "International" conglomerate which would not have the guidelines of the U.S. Constitution limiting their business empire,in any way, and to top it off, none of the JBS's in my area would become republicans to vote for Ron Paul in the closed state Oregon primary elections.
They would support and register as the Constitution party members.
Which made me think that they were there simply there to"DIVIDE" the republican party vote against Ron Paul.
Why is Ron Paul against the United Nations?
My answer is:
The U.S. Constitution spells out how a "Sovereign" nation makes its own laws, and has its own court systems !
An international conglomerate, such as Koch Industries or the United Nations, doesn't have to abide by U.S. law, that's why we have wars going on all over the world, backed by big business, among others.
Please think about this !

First of all, I'm not affiliated with Draft Magazine or thebrewingnetwork.com. But on an episode of thebrewingnetwork.com's Sunday Session they did an interview with Scott Kerkmans of Draft Magazine. He extended an offer for thebrewingnetwork.com listeners to subscribe to Draft Magazine for $10 for the first year. I got in, but then wanted to extend the offer to my brew club. I went back to thebrewingnetwork, and the link has been removed. I sent an email to Draft saying I wanted to extend the offer to my brew club and was wondering if it would be possible to get the link and the gladly obliged! SO, since homebrewtalk is my unofficial homebrew club, if you'd like to get Draft at 1/2 price, here you go:https://sequel4.publish2profit.com/S...09&Offer_no=14 Prost! drost

Dr. Dre Sells 'BEATS', 1st Hip Hop Billionaire
by Darryll King
posted May 9 2014 8:41AM
From all indications it looks like Dr. Dre is about to become a billionaire and the rap/hip hop world's first.
Sorry Diddy and Jay Z. That's because Apple in talks to buy Dr Dre's Beats Electronics for $3.2B!
Originally, according to reports in
The Wall Street Journal
New York Times
, the deal could
be announced as early as next week. But a recent post on an Instagram page with Dre and singer Tyrese
in it has confirmation from the man himself that the deal is true!
makes a variety of audio products, including a line of pricey but popular headphones.
It also recently launched a streaming music service similar to Spotify called Beats Music.
The company was founded by Dr. Dre and music magnate Jimmy Iovine. Their headphone products were
originally called "Beats by Dr. Dre."
Observers say it's an interesting move by Apple, a company not know for buying other businesses
with multibillion-dollar evaluations According to CNBC's analysis of the proposed deal, Apple could use
the Beats Music streaming service as it attempts to figure out the streaming media space. Critics haven't
been especially thrilled with iTunes radio, a streaming radio service similar to Pandora. It's been panned
by critics for its poor track selection.
Interestingly, the headphones are very popular but they don't get much
love from snooty audiophiles in reviews. CNBC also notes that Beats raised $500 million last year from
the Carlyle Group, giving it approximately a $1 billion valuation.
If Apple is willing to pay $3.2 billion, that means Beats has tripled its value in just a few months.

Supervolcano eruptions may not be so deadly after all
20:00 29 April 2013 by Michael Marshall
For similar stories, visit the Climate Change Topic Guide
...If Graf and Lane are right, a supervolcano eruption might not cool the global climate much. But that doesn't make it harmless. Anyone within 100 kilometres of the blast would almost surely be killed by a vast quilt of hot ash and gas smothering the landscape. The key point affecting species' survival would be where this cloud headed. The Indonesian "hobbits" (Homo floresiensis) only survived Toba because the ash cloud travelled west – away from their home island of Flores.
And even if the climate did not change much, there would be global consequences if a supervolcano erupted today. After all, the minor eruption of Iceland's Eyjafjallajökull in 2010 was enough to disrupt air transport for weeks. "If Yellowstone went up, US industry would be very strongly harmed," says Graf.

I think Ionic Spark is more of a Teemo and TF item honestly. It gives them alot better farm and harrass early game since their range is fairly small and the passive helps last hit minions / harrass champs in the back. Though I think it should be sold endgame since 110 damage every 4th isnt much endgame. Tiamat is hardly ever used. The reason behind that is 90% because the splash range is sooo small. If they increased the range, it would be used alot more often. The other 10% is expenses. Though if you get good early farm you could pick it up.

"Good Follow-up"
In this installment of the Riverworld series, Farmer goes for somewhat of a reboot. Instead of following Richard Burton, this book focuses on Samuel Clemens and his struggle to also reach the head of the world-spanning river. The motivation for this comes from another (or the same?) "Ethical", who tells Sam that he is one of twelve that must reach the river's head in order to unravel the mystery of the Riverworld.
The "Ethical" points Sam to an area where the materials to build a riverboat can be found, and here lies the bulk of the book- the struggle to build the Riverboat. This means dealing with some of histories baddies and the ills of society while overcoming the shortcomings of the world in which they are placed.
The book is a little slow in the beginning as it needs to build relationships set up the plot. However, once it becomes engrossing--and it does--the sense of adventure that was prevalent in the first book comes back in force. Part of this is due to another great reading by Paul Hecht, who uses just the right smattering of accents for the characters. In fact, the book finishes on such a high note, I again find myself wishing the third book were available for download.

The US Supreme Court won't start hearing arguments over California's law banning game sales to minors until November 2. However, the ruling in the court of popular opinion is already in, according to a new poll.
This week, parent watchdog group Common Sense Media released the results of a survey it commissioned on children's access to violent games. Conducted by polling firm Zogby International, the survey asked 2,100 adults whether they would support a law that "prohibits minors from purchasing ultraviolent or sexually violent video games without parental consent." Of those surveyed, some 72 percent said they would approve such a law.
Common Sense Media CEO and founder James Steyer, whose nonprofit organization is lobbying for game-restriction legislation in many states, hailed the poll's findings. "We hope the [state] attorneys general will take a look at these poll results and that they'll side with families over protecting the profits of the video game industry."
Zogby also asked those parents that were polled some more general questions about violent video games and their children. Some 65 percent said they were "concerned about the impact of ultraviolent video games on their kids." A full 75 percent of parents would give the game industry as a whole a "negative rating when it comes to how they protect kids from violent video games." Over half of both adults and parents would rate the industry's efforts as "poorly" in the latter matter.
The studies come just weeks before the US Supreme Court will begin a process that could decide once and for all the question of whether states can restrict sales of violent games to minors. At issue in the case is California Assembly Bill 1179, which was signed into law by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2005 but challenged in court before it could take effect.
Penned by California state assemblyman Leland Yee (D-San Francisco), CAB1179 sought to ban the sale or rental of "violent video games" to children. A "violent" game was defined as a "game in which the range of options available to a player includes killing, maiming, dismembering, or sexually assaulting an image of a human being." If it becomes law, retailers that sold such games would be subject to a $1,000 fine.
The bill would also have required "violent" video games to bear a 2-inch-by-2-inch sticker with a "solid white '18' outlined in black" on their front covers. That's more than twice the size of the labels that currently adorn game-box covers and display the familiar Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) rating.
In 2007, a circuit court judge struck down the law as unconstitutional but admitted he was "sympathetic to what the legislature sought to do." Last year, an appellate court judge backed up the original ruling. Months before the appellate court's decision, in an appearance on GameSpot's HotSpot podcast, Yee predicted that the dispute would be pushed to the Supreme Court.

Summary: Your Home is Your Castle was written by Richard Blumenfeld as a manual for those interested in the management of residential homeowner associations. Years ago, developers saw homeowner associations as troublesome components of their primary function to build and successfully sell housing. The popularity of homeowner associations forced developers to rethink their philosophy and include associations as a part of their offering. Unfortunately, many do not understand the complexity of homeo ...show morewner associations. Developers take shortcuts and the results are often disaster. Homeowners feel secure that their homeowner association will protect their home's values and enhance their quality of life. However, they seldom understand their responsibilities and the work that goes into making an HOA a success. Homeowner associations must be operated as a business, and there is no room for personal agendas. Understanding of case law applicable to homeowner associations is mandatory. Do owners read their Declaration of Covenants and do they understand the bylaws of their community? Do developers strive to create a set of HOA documents that are appropriate for their homeowners? Your Home is Your Castle is a common sense road map that can be followed by developers, homeowners, management companies, and those considering entering the HOA management business. ...show less

Mika Universal Stand
The definitive angle for all your devices
by James Thorne
on 26 March 2013
A perfectly simple aluminum stand, Mika is a new accessory from Bluelounge that offers convenient reading across all portable devices. The height of the stand can accommodate everything from smart phones to oversized tablets, cradling them snugly between rubber ends. The angle is meant for reading or typing on a Bluetooth keyboard and also provides a hands-free way to read recipes in the kitchen. While the system may be basic, with all of the overly specialized stand solutions available it's nice to see a well-built piece that will stay with us across several tech generations.
Available today, Mika sells for $40 from BlueLounge online.

Many impoverished children in rural Cambodia don't have access to crucial items needed to attend primary school–uniforms and school supplies. The Ponheary Ly Foundation provides these "school bundles" to children who would otherwise not be going to school.
Once all the children from a village are present at their public school and properly equipped, the PLF supports the school to provide a quality of education that is equal to that which is accessible in the urban communities.
Khnart Middle School lies near Tchey Primary School and takes in about 1/3 of the Tchey graduates. The school is supported by the Engelstoft Foundation in a very similar model to PLF. (more…)
by Lori Carlson
We are definitely running a little late on re-capping this year! It was a veritable whirlwind of activity. A lot of new programs were lifted off at existing projects and a new school was brought on board.
We are so grateful to our supporters near and far who believe in Ponheary's vision and help us to bring all this about. (more…)

I was really delighted and interested in my trip to Preah Vihear. First of all, I had a lot of fun during the time I was on my bus. All the buses left Siem Reap province at 6:00am. (more…)
PLF supporters on the ground here in Siem Reap not only get to spend time with students they also provide learning-focused activities so the benefit of the visit continues long past the volunteer's flight home. (more…)

NYPD ushers in largest class since '05
Mayor, police commissioner presided over NYPD recruits from 58 countries
States News Service
NEW YORK — Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg and Police Commissioner Raymond W. Kelly today presided over a graduation ceremony for 1,519 new police officers at Madison Square Garden. The graduates recently completed over six months of intensive training at the Police Academy and will be assigned to Operation Impact, the program that pairs rookie officers with experienced supervisors and deploys them to targeted high-crime areas.
It's been another unforgettable year for the NYPD: two terrorist plots foiled, a smooth handling of the 10th anniversary of 9/11 amid significant security threats, and a massive mobilization to help evacuate citizens during Hurricane Irene, said Mayor Bloomberg. Despite all those challenges, the department still succeeded in keeping New York City the safest big city in the country. Today's graduates will build on that success. Earlier this month, we were tragically reminded of the bravery required to join the NYPD and the kind of heroes that make up the department. Good luck, and congratulations again to you and your families. May God bless and protect each of you and may God continue to bless the NYPD.

Rain or Shine...Join Dre and Susi at The Watersports Academy, Sandbanks Poole UK, this weekend.
There's a party going on....Join Dre, Annable, Cabrinha and Matos Kite & Surf shop July 13th from 5PM on at Matos in Bruxelles.
After a few hiccups on his way to Venezuela Alby finally made it. WIth his pockets a lot less heavy from the fee's he paid on the way, he was stoked to be done traveling and exchanged some money before heading to the event site. "Adicora definitely impressed me! It looked like the smallest fishing village on the beach during the week, but for the weekend it got super packed with people from the closest cities coming down to enjoy the beach. The wind was non-stop from sunrise to sunset and apparently it is like that from December all the way until June. The water is shallow and really hot with little kickers all along the coast! " he said.
The Columbia Gorge Cabrinha Crew heads up a fundraiser to benefit Kiteboarding for Cancer or KB4C. Join the festivites in the Beer Garden at the Big Horse Brewpub in Hood RIver OR, July 5th.
Alby lands a G-spot...(his first ever in a competition) but it just wasn't enough to take the heat. Stay tuned for updates from Venezuela and watch to see how he does in the doubles.
Join Damien and Matt Collins if you are going to be in the Jupiter area this weekend.
After a couple fun weeks in Portugal for the KSP its good to be heading home. The KSP organizers put on a really good comp for this first event. Good location, hotel right on the beach with good rates and free breakfast and lunch for all the riders. Guincho is very well known for its kitesurfing and windsurfing potential and has its own little weather system. It's known for being 30 knots when other places aren't even windy. Unfortunately it didn't live up to its reputation and the wind didn't cooperate with us so we weren't able to get a result. They managed to run the first round of the comp and I had a great first round heat, but unfortunately thats all I got to compete in. Was still a fun event and we scored some really good surfing days as well as a couple light wind kiting days. Portugal is a really cool place and definitely has a lot of potential for kiting and surfing. If we had the wind it would have been a great comp. Really looking forward to the next competition in Mauritius and hopefully we score good conditions like they had last year!
Learn more about the KSP World Tour here.
My alarm goes off and it is 5:55am. I reach for the snooze button and doze for another 10 minutes. Eventually I get up and open the curtains.
I look out the window to find that my wind gauge, the centre palm tree across the street, is dancing vigorously. The predicted forecast on wind guru was accurate. Today would be a great day to make the crossing to the other side. Ras Sudr to Zafarana, Asia to Africa, 26kms across the Gulf of Suez, the busiest shipping lane in the world.
After a good wholesome breakfast I gathered my things and walked down to the Soul Kitesurfing Centre. I was greeted by the two big smiles from Hamada and Hassan. "Hawa mea mea qwais, Bro!" The wind is 200% good they say.
My phone goes and I answer it. Antoine from Paradise Fun Kite Centre is on the other end, "Morgs how windy is it?" he asks " 20 knots" I reply " I am trying to make the decision between my 9m and 10m, what do you think?" he asked, " Bro bring them both, make the call when you get down here, also don't forget your passport for the return journey" I stated. "No problem, see you in 20minutes" Antoine said.
Aldo arrives totally pumped and is high-fiving everyone, we check the kites and the boards all is good. Jacques turns up and is amping to get on the water.
Ossama and Saad arrive from Phoenix Kitesurfing. Ossama tells me the boat is ready and waiting but the boat driver has decided to double the cost because it will be a rough crossing. I told Ossama to tell him we will all put in to pay the extra cost as this has to be the best window of opportunity we have had so far this year. With the last month preparing for this we were not going to lose the chance again.
Greg from Moonbeach Windsurfing Centre arrives with his windsurfing kit and starts getting rigged up.
I gather the group of usual suspects that you will find on the beaches of Ras Sudr and start my briefing.
" Thanks guys for taking the time out from your busy lives to make this first ever crossing of the Gulf of Suez on kitesurfing equipment. Today's conditions look perfect for our challenge. I have a few points I would like to cover before we head off."
First of all our group will be split into two teams, the boat team that will consist of Ossama, Hamada and Hassan. We have made a tool box, kite repair kit, provided 3 extra kites and an extra board in case of any gear failure on route which will also be on the boat.
Take this with you, and inshalla, we won't need it. Our second team will consist of the surfers, from Soul Kitesurfing - Aldo, Jacques, Sherif, Mohammed and myself, from Paradise Fun Kite Centre - Antoine, from Phoneix Kitesurfing -Saad and from Moonbeach on his windsurfing equipment is Greg.
We will be running a buddy system so pair up with the guy that you hope will save you if you get into trouble out there!
There are two major elements we will be up against as we make the crossing:
1: Wind dropping in the middle and the closer we get to the other side.
2: The 50m high container ships that are cruising up from the south of the Red Sea.
In both cases stay close to the safety boat, check on your buddy, if anyone feels we are getting to close to the ships, turn around and tack away. Let the container ships pass, and once we think their wind shadows are far enough away, return to our original bearing for the other side. If the wind starts dropping and we are close enough to shore, stick together as a group and head to the landing point as quick as possible. Our aim is to land at La Vista 5 compound at the Fly Kitesurfing Centre, there we have Steve Walden and his team waiting for us with cold beers.
Any questions? No? …. Sweet ass! Check your equipment boat team, then take off. We will see you off the reef in front of the Soul Kitesurfing Centre. Good luck".
After an hourof waiting, double and triple checking our equipment, we see a small white boat on the horizon. Adam from Redbull has made it on the boat after complications with the Egyptian Coast guard, all members entering onto the boat in Ras Sudr have to exit in Ras Sudr. No one is allowed to get off on the other side as it is classed as smuggling. Our boat kit, consisting of extra kites, board, tool kit and first aid were not allowed to be carried on the boat.
Even though we were gutted, we did not let this stop us.
Catherine helped launch our kites while snapping away getting some good pictures of us all, and screamed good luck.
I was the second to last to leave the beach, and instantly I felt the incoming tide fighting to keep me on the beach. I had chosen a 12m Cabrinha Switchblade and 136cm Caliber board. I had to depower the kite as it was blowing 20 to 22knots which was fine, but the board was heavy and really sticking to the water, bulldozing through the chop. I would stick with it and hope once out of the lagoon and in the deep water it will feel better.
I looked up and saw the rest of the team heading up wind to meet the boat. It was great to see the boat getting closer and closer. I noticed Greg was finding it hard to get out of the lagoon, finally planning he told me that he wished he had bigger gear. He was concerned about there not being enough wind in the middle and that we should go on without him. What a team player…Good on ya mate. I later learned Greg down winded back to Moonbeach Windsurfing centre (12km away) solo.
I left Greg to it and caught up with the rest of the team and the big ass safety boat that was tracking along at a full speed of 8knots. I could hear the engine of 176-horse power working to move the big beast. I was greeted with shouts of joy from the boat team, and Bedouin Captain. The boys had pumped up a Red bull buoy and positioned it on the front of the boat.
Cameras were snapping away and a video camera was recording. Yalla! We were off.
As we headed away from the safety of the shore line I couldn't help noticing a large yellow dust cloud covering the sky towards Ras Sudr, great there is a sandstorm on our backs surely that's got to help us.
As we approached the middle, I noticed two large ships coming up on our downwind side extremely quick, looking back at the team and the sleepy safety boat I made the call for the team to turn back and let the ships pass before us. The group turned away and circled the safety boat, we had a bit of time up our sleeves so we started to show off in front of the boat for the cameras.
Once the ships had passed we continued on our way. Looking back in the direction the ships had come from, I could make out two more large ships making their way towards us. Looking back at the safety boat, I was hoping the captain could get across the infront of the ships before they were on top of him. Thankfully he did.
At this point I could make out the wind mills from the wind farm on the outskirts of Zafarana. I was not sure where the Fly Kitesurfing Centre was located, but before we had left, Greg and I had loaded the coordinates of the Fly Centre into his GPS from Google Earth. Ossama had the GPS on the boat and was instructing the captain to hold the course. I dropped back and had a talk with Ossama, he told me that Steve could see our kites from the beach and to go ahead on the same course as the boat was pointing in. I headed back to my position and instantly felt the wind drop by at least 5 knots. I powered up the 12m. The wind dropped a second time and I had to start really working the kite. Looking around I could see that the rest of the team were feeling it also. I spotted two kites in the sky about 3kilometres downwind of our current position. I started kite looping my kite and heading in the direction of the other riders.
As we got closer I could make some other kites on the beach. Yes!!! Fly Kitesurfing Centre. As I came into the beach and landed my kite, Steve was there taking photos and giving out congratulations. It wasn't until I was out of the water and watching the rest of the team land that it sunk in that we had made it across, all safely.
High fives and cold beer followed by some pizza was the call while we waited for our taxi van to pick us up.
All in all it was great to be part of a team that completed the crossing.
Congratulations to all of you involved, I couldn't have done it without you!
1hour 48mins and 27.3kms.
We are excited to add another ripper to our Team. Moona Whyte from the north shore of Oahu joins team Cabrinha!.
"I live on the beach at Laniakea and...i love surfing, hiking, playing guitar and painting! My dad taught me how to kite about 4 years ago and I've been in the waves ever since. You can find me at the beach park everyday, minus school.

I assume your first piece of equipment to purchase when converting from PM to AG brewing should be a barley crusher followed by a mashing tun; right?
Well it depends on what you already have. You can get your grains pre-crushed so I would say the two pieces of equipment vital to AG are a mash tun and a pot able to handle full boils.
Like my snazzy new avatar? Get Sons of Zymurgy swag, here, and brew with the best.Revvy's one of the cool reverends. He has a Harley and a t-shirt that says on the back "If you can read this, the bitch was Raptured. - Madman I gotta tell ya, just between us girls, that Revvy is HOT. Very tall, gorgeous grey hair and a terrific smile. He's very good looking in person, with a charismatic personality... he drives like a ****ing maniac! - YooperBrew
I've been doing AG for 2 years and do not own a mill. For me to go AG as an extract brewer: 1: I picked up a 30qt turkey fryer that allowed me to do full extract batches (~$70) 2: DIY MT (essential) for ~$80. I buy my ingredients from Brewmasters Warehouse and always get an excellent crush. Basically, the price from a partial boil extract brewer going to AG cost me $150.
Even cheaper when you can find that turkey fryer on CL. Tons of them go up in the month or so before Turkey Day.
I'm now researching the Turkey Fryer option. I imagine stainless is the preferred way to go but is aluminum OK? TIA, John
Bah, my post was to say I picked up a 30-qt to do full-BOIL (extract) brewing. Yeah, $150 is at the high-end but it gives you an idea of an upper boundary that isn't intimidating for making a decision with. Get those turkey fryers on sale/discount/used and same for a building a DIY mash tun, you could probably do that cheaper. I've since moved up to a larger burner and do 10 gal batches in a larger boil kettle but getting into AG wasn't a huge money sink for me and was fun to do with excellent results on every batch.

How To Eat #Vegan On A Budget (Organic, Plant-Based, Gluten-Free, Soy-Free, Raw Living Foods)
I went out to the store this evening and came back home with quite the haul.
I was able to find lots of high-quality, nutrient-dense, vegan foods. All for a total of about $70. This will last me probably 4 days… so at less than $20/day this is pretty high quality stuff. Check out the video to see some of the products I bought (including NuttZo Butter, Mary's Gone Crackers Jalapeno, Raw (Superfood) Trail Mix, and Go Raw Granola Bars):
I hope you enjoyed this video. Please let me know what you think.

Pumpkin Pie Spice Chocolate Protein Shake
I have refined a recipe for an awesome and SUPER HEALTHY protein shake which will keep you going better than your next cup of coffee, banana or candy bar.
It simply consists of organic spinach, unsweetened almond milk, vega one chocolate shake powder, and pumpkin pie spice. It's low-glycemic and contains NO SUGAR.
"What is vega one", you may be wondering. Watch the video below and I'll give you a vega one review and make share with you a delicious smoothie recipe.
This Vega One stuff is da bomb. I've had it everyday (sometimes TWICE A DAY!) for the last week or so, and I'm hooked.
I love that I get 50% of my daily vitamins and minerals (and awesome SUPERFOODS) in just ONE pack of Vega One Chocolate Nutritional Shake Packs.
When I have two of these per day, that means I'm consuming about ONE POUND OF GREENS + 100% of my vitamins and minerals. Talk about awesome! It's the easiest (and most delicious!) way of fulfilling my '5 fruits and vegetable' needs that I know of.

Seasonal Green Smoothie With Vega One Shake and Pumpkin Spice
I tried vega one chocolate shake and with was delicious with greens. I make an organic hemp-brazil nut milk and made a smoothie with granola, lots of greens and vega one shake. It was a superfood shake which acted as a good snack (or "meal replacement").
The vega one comes in individual pack sizes, so it's convenient to just take one packet, blend it into a smoothie and rest assured that you are meeting all of your baseline nutritional needs. Much better than taking a vitamin supplement.

Tempeh Reuben in Ann Arbor
I went to The Lunch Room in Ann Arbor. The seemed like the "best" vegan restaurant in town (after doing a Foursquare and Yelp search). I was looking for somewhere with good food, but also relatively healthy. I found them on social media, because they have good looking fan-posted images and their reviews overall seemed positive.
I got the Tempeh Reuben (I've been a fan of good tempeh reubens for the past couple of years).
And… it didn't disappoint. THICK-CUT, homemade rye bread, with (no sugar added) slow caramelized onion… and sumptuous tempeh! Yum!
The Lunch Room is a highly recommended place to eat vegan food in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Here is a photo of the inside:
And… the beautiful terrace, outside of The Lunch Room:
I'll definitely be coming back the next time I am in Ann Arbor!!
How To Eat Healthy at Work and While Traveling
Tomorrow I am getting up for a long day at work, and then I am traveling on a train for 5 hours, from Chicago to Detroit. I will wake up at 5:25am and will get to Michigan at 1am. Needless to say: LONG DAY.
How will I stay healthy, focused and energized for this long day?
In the video below I show you what I will be eating over the course of the day, and why it makes sense (nutritionally) as the PERFECT FUEL for the day I will be going through:
I will also be drinking lots of water, as well as mostly likely a fair share of organic green tea. (by fair share I mean, probably about a liter or more over the course of the day!).
Will definitely be carrying a bag of raw, sprouted, dehydrated almonds with me, too (forgot to mention that – I love the ones by "Living Intentions", they are an awesome, healthy snack!).
