The Pipe Smoking Chemist (3) | Extremely Mild | None Detected | Very Mild | Pleasant to Tolerable |
I love Castello pipes and C&D has so many good tobaccos that this one seemed like a no-brainer; it said virginia, latakia, oriental, a good combo IMHO. But seriously, what's the deal here? Did they forget the latakia in my tin? I'm getting nothing. Just a bland, flavorless tobacco. Not bad tasting, but certainly not what I would call an "English mixture delivering a creamy finish to the discerning palate." Unfortunately, this one misses the mark big time. I'll leave it to marinate for a while and come back to it.
I put "somewhat recommended" in the hope that it will eventually taste like something I want to smoke.
Try this one at your own risk. (Side note, Sea Rock is a decent aromatic, so they're not all bad)

text: Business Russia wants to make its own processors to replace Intel & AMD Image Credit: AndyWilson June 23, 2014 8:45 AM Tom Cheredar We may be entering a new cold war if comments from Elon Musk and today's news out of Russia are anything to go by. The Russian government is preparing to ditch all computers running x86 microprocessors from leading chip makers AMD and Intel, according to local news reports. In place of current chips, there is speculation that the government will begin using ARM chips — usually used within mobile devices — to power a new fleet of Linux-based computers. These new chips are reportedly being built by supercomputer manufacturer T-Platform's Baikal Electronics, while funding is coming from state-owned tech firm Rosnano and defense company Rostec. While there's been no official indication for the change in processors, some are speculating that it could have something to do with Russia being concerned about the security of the computers it uses within government facilities. At the same time, this could also be a case of Russia trying to build up its own tech industry rather than relying entirely on outside vendors.

2012 London Olympic computer system warms up
When the torch is lit to signal the start of the 2012 London Olympics, 900 servers, 1,000 network devices, and 9,500 computers will be working overtime. They are being extensively tested first.
On your marks, get set, go! Stress testing has begun on the computer systems that will keep the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games running. And jumping and diving and throwing and rowing and pedaling and wrestling and shooting and trampolining and swimming and winning.
Olympic chairman Seb Coe fired the starting pistol yesterday for IT boffins from Atos Origin to race through 200,000 hours of testing. A mini mock-up of the 34 Olympic venues has been created in a 2,000sq/m technology lab in London's Canary Wharf, where all manner of scenarios will be tested in advance. The system needs to be able to guard against problems from power failure to flooding to announcing the wrong results.

Do you need some accountability? A place to post your Menu? Some support? Then this is the place for you! Come on in!!!!
100 lb. Club - Accountability, Menu, Support....week of January 11thView Full Version : Accountability, Menu, Support....week of January 11th mj5 01-11-2010, 09:54 AM Do you need some accountability? A place to post your Menu? Some support? Then this is the place for you! Come on in!!!! dgramie 01-11-2010, 09:59 AM I have my meals planned out for the week. I only lost 1lb last week and decided its time to plan ahead alot better. food breakfast- 1 toast 1 egg 1 cheese coffee 7pts lunch fish fillet green beans 2pt snack pudding and string cheese 3 pts dinner porkchop, greens and greenbeans and beets 10pts 22 pts total..allowed 25 isnt it amazing when we actually plan lots of veggies the difference it can make in our menu. Im planning on having a slice of my daughters icecream cake tommorow. Its 9 points,,so i have to plan them in tommorows menu. Looks like I will be loading up on veggies to make room for the cake. lottie63 01-11-2010, 10:09 AM hello ladies, I got that biggest loser wii game and for my height and weight it says I should be eating 2000 calories. I always ignore those types of recomendations but for once I"m going to try it higher, because I was reallylosing slowly at a lower amount. we'll see. I have no idea what I"m going to eat today. I finally exercised yesterday. it was great! mj5 01-11-2010, 10:22 AM Hi everyone! My knee is SO much better today. Amazing what some rest, ice, and ibuprofen can do!!!! (I haven't been icing like I should, it's such a simple thing and it helps SO much!!!!) I'm going to hold off on calling the ortho. If it gets bad again, I'll call. I am not going to go to the gym tonight, but will go back tomorrow. So, we'll see.... Beverlyjoy--Glad to hear your back is better. VERY glad you were home when the ice maker started leaking! Diane--Good luck w/ the challange. That sounds fun. Take it easy w/ that knee! Passionista--Good for you! I need to get back into making working out a habit, too. GREAT job! traveling and eating healthy is not an easy thing. lottie--Great! How's the exercising going? Trazey--Welcome back! rakel--Great job! sachiko--Welcome!!! Great job at the store! Having a plan helps! raebeaR--Congrats on the loss! dgramie--sounds like a good plan! I am back to my pre-holiday weight...yippee! I am going to update my ticker because I am still above my ticker weight, but it's time to re-group and get serious. It is very helpful that my dh is eating healthier--I bought some chips for my nephew and dh was NOT happy, of course I sent the chips home w/ my nephew (which was the plan), but dh didn't even want to see them in the house. LOL!!!! I had a great weekend w/ family. We have had a weird family dynamic. My dad was married before and my older brother and I are from that marriage, but when our parents split, my older brother went w/ our birth mom and wasn't allowed to have any contact w/ us. It's a looooong dramatic story, not worth getting into here, but when I was in college, I finally "met" my brother. (never met my birth mom) We have struggled getting to know each other. We want to, but it's hard to know "how" to....if that makes any sense....anyway, we are finally doing it now and it is awesome! We spent Saturday at my niece's sports games and then went to their house for dinner and game night. It was SO much fun. Ok, I should really get to work!!!!! Have a great OP day everyone!!! Beverlyjoy 01-11-2010, 12:34 PM Hi chicks - I did well on my plan yesterday...I am so grateful. My back felt better yesterday - so I did alot of catch up work on my computer - plus my favorite sites. I woke up with a back ache again. I have an ergonomic chair. Just not enough support for a just feeling better back. I just plain sat there too long. BUT (here is the good news!) DH has laptop from when he was looking for a new job last year. His company gave him a new laptop. So....he set it up for me to use in my comfy chair with my support back pillow. I don't know why we didn't think of it sooner!! I am doing a happy dance! I have my day planned out food, and all my 'change my habits stuff". I am not used to this computer and am s l o w . mj - so glad your knee has improved. and hooray for getting back to your preholiday weight. Lottie - enjoy your new wii! Slashnl 01-11-2010, 01:16 PM Hi all. Well, my weight was up this morning. Whatever. I think it might be some water retention from some salty stuff over the weekend. I updated my ticker, and that was painful, but I just want it out there. I went and worked out and then I'm going in to the gym in a little while to do the weigh-in and measurements for the 12 week challenge. So, it's all ok. I am going to give it my all! My knee doesn't seem 100%, but is so much better, I think I'll be fine now. Staying on plan this week totally with food. I slipped up a few times last week. Onward! Beverly - That will be good to have the laptop!! Yay for you! MJ - Glad your knee is better! Sounds like you had a good weekend. Good for you! Lottie - It may be a good idea to give the extra calories a try. At least for awhile so you can determine what can work for you. dgramie - planning is always good! I know I do better with keeping on track when I've planned ahead. Have a great day everyone! soulnik 01-11-2010, 02:37 PM Hello All, I like the idea of this accountability thing.... I had a good weigh-in this morning. Down two pounds! Weight Watchers says I can have 35 points per day but I'm trying to do 33 which is plenty of food. I made turkey/veggie chili yesterday so I'm having that for dinner, cold cuts for lunch, cereal for breakfast. Jello, fruit and popcorn for snacks. I'm having this mysterious back pain so it limits my weight training ability but I walked 30 mins and plan to walk again tomorrow morning. raebeaR 01-11-2010, 03:42 PM Hello, chiquitas!! :) Thanks for starting us off for the week, mj5 -- and congrats on getting back down to your pre-holiday weight!! That's a good feeling, isn't it? Now the holidays are well behind you and you can get ON with this weight loss business!! Really glad to hear the knee is improving as well. I agree with you -- ice is the magic cure!! dgramie, planning is the key, isn't it? I've found there are some things I just really don't want to give up while on this weight loss journey, and since I've decided it is a lifestyle change and not a diet, then I may as well start building in ways to cope with my preferences now. It's working!! So nothing is really off limits anymore, just very limited quantities of certain things, like simple carbs and wine. Enjoy the heck out of that cake!! :D lottie63, can I come rub your head and let some of that exercise impetus rub off on me?? I just CANNOT seem to get back to it. Be proud of yourself for getting it done!! :carrot: Beverlyjoy, very cool about the laptop and getting some relief from your back pain. Hope it feels even better soon. I've had a weird thing happening with my back as I've been losing weight... at my highest weight, I didn't really have any back pain. But as I began to head through the low 250s and upper 240s, I had some real problems. I think that, because my weight distribution was changing, my back was suddenly coping with more stress and strain than it had been -- if that makes sense at all. Hopefully your back pain will resolve as the weight comes off, too!! When I hit the lower 240s, it went away completely. Slashnl, sorry about the dang scale. The salt really messes with us, doesn't it?? Just hang in there; that scale will move -- promise!! You're doing great. :hug: soulnik, welcome!! Great bunch of chicks here. :) Hope your back pain resolves soon, too. Your plan looks like it's working well for you!! Check out the ticker, ladies!! :carrot::carrot::carrot: Got on the scale this morning and there it was: The 220s!! Ok, just 229, but man, I haven't been in the 220s for, uhh, a really long time!!! I barely remember the 230s except for 236 and 233... up and down, up and down, and then, whoosh, down to 231 yesterday and 229 today. All I can do is shake my head and stick with my plan... which is really not all that healthful: Breakfast: 2 slices regular bacon, 1 oz. LF mozzarella cheese, 1 hardboiled egg, 12 oz. V-8 juice Lunch: Cup of minestrone soup with extra veggies and beans Dinner: Steamed spinach, baked chicken breast stuffed with ricotta cheese and topped with diced tomatoes and LF mozzarella cheese (I like cheese!!), glass of red wine Snacks: Cup of cocoa, apple, handful of peanuts Anyway. It's working. I'm a happy girl!!! All the best, Rae Beverlyjoy 01-12-2010, 07:49 AM HI CHICKS....I just typed out a long post (it took forever because I not used to a laptop.) then my computer froze up. :(:dizzy::( So...hi everyone. I did well yesterday, glad you are all here! Have a Great day. lottie63 01-12-2010, 08:42 AM well, after five days off I"m going back to work this morning. AUGH. I hate waiting for the bus in t his freezing cold. :( b: pb and j on wheat, chocolate almond milk l: vegan mac n' cheese that's all I know for sure right now. I plan to exercise tonight a bit after I get home. soulnik 01-12-2010, 10:18 AM Hi All, raebeaR - Congrats on the 220's!!! Beverlyjoy - I hate it when that happens! Lottie63 - Chocolate almond milk? Sounds yummy! Hope you have a good day at work. I walked 40 mins this morning. Got to work a little early. I realized today that, while I'm staying within my points range, my food choices are not the best. But it's only the second week that I've been back on plan after almost 2 years off. It'll take some time to get back into the swing of things. So today: Bkfst: WW egg mcmuffin, banana, coffee - 6.5 pts Lunch: sandwhich, sf jello - 7 pts Dinner turkey/veggie chile, small corn muffin, 100 cal pack - 8 pts snacks: fruit/yogurt, popcorn- 7 pts mj5 01-12-2010, 10:39 AM Good Morning everyone! I'm sad to say that my knee is sore again this morning. Not as bad as before, but not it's not feeling good. I will admit that I did not ice it last night, but I WILL tonight. I'm going to call the ortho later this am and get an appt. Beverlyjoy--Great idea w/ the laptop! Diane--Yea, that darn salty stuff...it's ok, though. LIke you said, Onward! soulnik--Welcome! I made turkey/veggie chili over the weekend. It was SO good! raebeaR--CONGRATS!!!! That is SO awesome!!! lottie--getting back to work after a break is always tough for me! Have a great OP day everyone! I have my gym clothes waiting for me in the car! I can at least go and ride the bike for a while tonight!!! Slashnl 01-12-2010, 12:50 PM Hi all. Well, I just did the same thing with wiping out what I had just typed. Dang it. I'll come back later. raebeaR 01-12-2010, 03:04 PM As a regular poster of too-long posts, please let me tell you what I do to avoid that really annoying situation of getting gobbled by the Post Monster: I either 1) type the post out in Word, then cut and paste it into the reply box; or 2) type it out in the reply box but highlight everything and copy to my cache before posting. That way if the post is lost, I can just paste it back into the box and re-post, thereby forcing you all to read my endless drivel... heh, heh. ;) mj5 01-12-2010, 04:31 PM raebeaR--That's what I do too...I type it in either Word or Word Pad...I've lost too many posts not doing that! SnowboundChick 01-12-2010, 07:59 PM Breakfast- 1 cup scrambled eggs, 2 turkey sausage, 1 slice of bacon Lunch - tuna sandwich, noodle cup Snacks, apple, yogurt tube, lattes (my both has a tassimo at work so it's 70 or 80 cal a cup, cheaper because i"m not spending $4 a cup now for a fancy latte, I can spend $16 and have 8 plus I don't drink them very often so it's all good.) Exercise - went to the gym today, warm up and pull workout with a bit of ab work. Feeling pretty good today! I'll do some catch up reading now. Beverlyjoy 01-12-2010, 08:10 PM Good idea about doing post in word. I usually write my post in the answer the message place at the bottom of the page,& copy it in case it doesn't go through .

I need to learn how to make bread and it actually turn out right. My last attempt rose but was tough. Im not using a bread machine just homemade from scratch. Hope everyone has a good day. soulnik 01-13-2010, 11:59 AM Good day yesterday. I walked in the morning then bought a Wii last night (to replace the iPhone that I returned...treat for my excellent bonus from work). I did sports with the Wii for over an hour and LOVED IT! Today: Walked 30 mins and the food plan is: Morning Good Start Lean Breakfast Sandwich 5 1/4 cup(s) fat-free skim milk 0.5 yogurt - 2 Midday small clementine 0.5 Turkey Chile 4 Jiffy Corn Muffins 2 Evening 2 Sugar Free Pudding Chocolate 2.5 mixed veggies -0 Lean Cuisine - 6 snacks small apple(s) 1 100 cal pack - 2 popcorn 1 @lottie: sorry you're in pain. sometimes you just have to rest and take care to take care of your body. @mj5: sorry you're in pain too. glad you're calling the doc. the meds can be a real downer but at least they're helping in the short term. @beverly: go girl! down a pound! Work it!!! @dgramie: baking bread! more power to ya chica. I don't have the kind of courage. lol. enjoy! rakel 01-13-2010, 11:29 PM Just as expected, my weight went up a little bit, but the trend is still downward, so I'm not too worried about it. This week is going to be tough because we have a conference every night at church this week, which means I have even less time to get my exercise in. Thankfully, dinner is provided for, but I also don't have much control over what is there, so I have to have a lot of willpower to eat right. Tonight I did decent. I tried to not eat any dessert at all but the coconut cream cake was calling my name so I took about the smallest sliver I could cut off just to have 2-3 bites and that was sweet enough for me. It was about 700 cals total: a 4" sub (I hollowed out some of the bread from the sandwich because it was just too much), a serving of chips (I counted!), 2 deviled egg halves, a small salad with 1tsp dressing, and of course the 2-3 bites of cake. After I ate, I wrote everything down so when I got home I could put it all into Livestrong and guesstimate the calories as close as possible. I'm pretty tired, otherwise I would write out more personal notes to everyone... but for those who have lost, congrats! For those having some health problems that make it difficult to exercise: hang in there! New people: welcome! And with that, I am off :) SnowboundChick 01-14-2010, 02:24 AM Today not so good. At home sick. Breakfast: scramble eggs Lunch: left over hamburger helper from 2 nights ago. Dinner: 3 chicken legs, 1 c. rice, 1c. mushroom soup, bunch of raw veggies with ranch dip and a glass of orange juice. Snack: hot chocolate(am) pepsi (tonight) Did drink lot's of water though! No exercise but since I was home ended up switching laundry and moving some stuff around in that room and my bedroom closet. A little organization. Lottie: that sucks that you are in pain on top of everything else. Hang in there and take care of you! Beverly: Good job, you are doing great! Mj5 - that's terrible, skipping a whole day!! dgramie - sounds like you are on plan. i bought a bosch 2 years ago to help with making bread in our house but I haven't found a good recipe the dh likes. he's wants a whole grain with some flavour and a little density. The one I have is too light and airy for him. soulnik - you had a yummy day!! I love our Wii, i just wish i used it more! rakel - sounds like you are very aware and taking care of it! Right on! dgramie 01-14-2010, 07:58 AM I found the perfect recipe for rolls...kept sampling them yesterday because I couldnt believe I made them.LOL I will make another batch over the weekend and then freeze them. Everyone raved over them.I am pumped and they were pretty easy overall. Yesterday didnt go as planned 4 rolls in all...so not a good day with food. Today will be better lottie63 01-14-2010, 08:28 AM thanks everyone, yesterday was good until 430, then the pain got bad, hopefully today will be better, with the weather getting better and stuff. b: rice and seitan nuggets l: kun pao vegan lunch box from trader joe's dinner: zucchini and seitan Beverlyjoy 01-14-2010, 09:41 AM Hi - chicks....I am running out the door. Will catch up later. soulnik 01-14-2010, 11:17 AM Yesterday was awesome! I walked 12,000 steps and did the Wii for an hour. I love that thing! Food was good. I went to bed with 6 unused points. I didn't walk this morning but plan to Wii later today. Food for the day: Morning Good Start Lean Breakfast Sandwich 5 1/4 cup(s) fat-free skim milk 0.5 Midday mixed veggies 0 Deli sandwhich 7 Evening Turkey Chile 4 Jiffy Corn Muffins 2 100 cal pack 2 Snacks 1 small apple(s) 1 yogurt - Quick-added food 2 3 small Clementine 1 @SnowboundChick - Sorry you're sick. Hope you feel better soon. @dgramie - Mmmmmm. Rolls. (Said with the Homer Simpson drool.) I can't resist home baked food. Freezing sounds like a good idea. Enjoy! @lottie - Sorry you're in so much pain. Is there anything that can be done to alleviate it? lottie63 01-14-2010, 08:39 PM soul, I am going to the doc next month. mj5 01-15-2010, 05:19 AM Hi everyone! Sorry I wasn't around yesterday, the day just got away from me. I ran out of time to call the ortho, but I have a note taped to my phone at work....I will call as soon as they open this am!!! food choices have been pretty good, but I haven't been exercising b/c of my knee pain. I have to get this taken care of so I can move forward. Have a great OP day everyone! mj5 01-15-2010, 05:24 AM Oh, I almost forgot!!! I was quite proud of myself yesterday....it was one of my staff's bday and we always have a special snack at our Team Meeting when there is a bday. I bought stuff for "healthier" make your own sundaes (ff frozen yogurt, lots of fruit, a small pkg of brownies, etc) Everyone LOVED it. In fact, they asked if that could be the b.day "treat" from now on! Plus, everyone had fun making their own sundaes! AND...I had just eaten lunch and wasn't hungry, so I didn't have any. I didn't even want any. We put out the leftovers for the residents in our program AND when I left for the day I saw several of them munching on the fruit--that made me feel good too!!! Beverlyjoy 01-15-2010, 06:57 AM Hi chicks...yesterday was crazy....I have a cold and towtwo days ago took a non-drowsy cold medcine. However, it prevented me from sleeping one minute. Yikes. I had two performances - luckily the adrenaline kicked and it went well. Boy was I tired last night. Even better news is the my eating was good...I am so grateful. raebeaR 01-15-2010, 09:52 AM Good morning, chicks!! :) Beverlyjoy, well done for staying on your plan despite being sick. I don't know about you, but when I don't feel well, I always want "comfort" food -- which for me usually means things I shouldn't have!! mj5, PLEASE post that you've contacted your ortho today, ok? Sounds like you're really, really busy, but still spreading a positive message of healthful eating and taking good care of yourself, knee excepted!! You're such an inspiration!! lottie63, hope your pain is better soon, too -- do you have to wait until next month to see your doc? soulnik, you're doing so well!! Because of you, I'm going to get on my Wii Fit today FOR SURE. 12,000 steps -- I get exhausted just thinking of it!! Keep going, girl!! dgramie, I'd love your roll recipe!! I bake all my own bread and have some roll recipes I like, but I'm always on the lookout for a fantastic one. I'm not eating much bread these days, but I still often bake for others, so would you be willing to share? SnowboundChick, sure hope you're feeling better soon!! You still seem like you're doing reasonably well on your plan despite illness. That's so impressive!! rakel, great approach to dealing with the cake!! You've got a plan for dealing with a challenging time food-wise. Can't do better than that!! I'm still on my plan and plugging away... getting ready to step on the scale shortly. Tomorrow I will have officially completed 3 months on my plan, so it's really become a habit at this point. The new sweetie arrives on February 8th for a week-long visit... I want to look the best I can by then. Ok, ton of work to get done today, so I'd best get moving... take good care, everyone, and stay in touch!! :D All the best, Rae soulnik 01-15-2010, 11:02 AM Yesterday was good. Stayed on program.

Hope your knee is improving. Everyone = have a terrific Saturday! soulnik 01-16-2010, 01:13 PM I'm running out the door to my Biggest Loser Challenge meeting but wanted to say hi. I find weekends so hard. No routine makes it harder to stay focused. But I have a plan for the day. Going out to dinner with a friend and we're going to Applebee's so I can take advantage of the 550 calorie meals. Have a good day ladies! Beverlyjoy 01-17-2010, 07:35 AM Hi chicks - I stayed with my plan and am grateful.:) I have a horrible head cold and a very sore foot/ankle. :( Thankfully - I am not overeating because of it. Not exactly sure why not :dizzy: -- but, I'll take it. lots of water log food and time I take to eat it stretches and strengthening - done! aware eating fork down between bites no second helpings eat only when seated ice and heat meditation - haven't done it in a couple of days breakfast - corn bread, egg white scramble, ketchup, clementine lunch - turkey and lite cheese sandwich with lite mayo, veggies snack - yougurt and cereal dinner - cup of ham and bean soup, corn bread, salad snack - fiber one bar, grapes Soul nik- hope your applebee's supper was good.:) Everyone...have a great day.:D mj5 01-17-2010, 08:34 AM hi everyone! Yesterday was super busy....two volleyball games (they are SO long!) and then a basketball game....you would think after all these years they would figure out a way to make bleachers more comfy! LOL! Even with all of my ahem, padding...my butt hurts! I finally called and made an ortho appt. Of course, the first two available dates, I couldn't take...oh well, Tonight we are going to see Wicked! i cannot wait!!!! soulnik 01-17-2010, 10:31 AM Hey Chicas - Yesterday was good. Applebees was...strange. All they have is the calorie count, no other nutritional info. So you really don't know what you're eating. The fat could be off the charts. The serving size for the 550 cal steak is a 7 oz steak! I couldn't risk it so I had the 7 pt Weight Watchers steak meal. It was a 4 oz steak which is a much saner portion size and at least I knew what I was getting. Today I'm getting a new Wii exergame called Wii Active. I'm psyched about that. Food for the day: Morning 1 1/2 cup(s) Total Raisin Bran 4 1 cup(s) fat-free skim milk 2 Midday lean cuisine 6 1 c. mixed veggies 0 Evening 1 c. green beans - 0 1 serving extra lean Beef shepherd's pie 7 Snacks 3 small clementine 1 1 medium apple(s) 1 yogurt - 2 2 serving(s) Kettle Corn - Popcorn, Indiana 5 raebeaR 01-17-2010, 11:32 AM 'Morning, chicks, Just touching base before I get on with my busy day... hope everyone is well! soulnik, sounds like you are chugging along and doing great! Interesting about Applebee's. I think you made a wise choice! mj5, so glad to hear you've made your appointment, though sorry you're having to wait so long. Enjoy Wicked!! Beverlyjoy, sorry you're coping with a cold... it's rough being sick at any time, but especially when you're trying to stick to a food plan. I'm glad you're doing so well despite everything, and I hope the foot/ankle is better soon, too!! And yes, I'm eager to see my sweetie... for me, it's more than just excitement at the prospect of a new relationship... it marks the end of the very painful, extended grieving period for my late husband. Sweetie lost his wife as well, so we have this in common. We're both exploring Life After Widowhood, and since we were such close friends 20 years ago, it's been relatively comfortable and easy for us. I'm still extremely apprehensive about the whole nekkid thing that's coming up... there's just no hiding this massive belly!! I just realized I've never been in a relationship as a fat person. I have no idea how all that is going to go. Gad. I think I'll go clean my floors and try not to think about it!!! Best to all, Rae lottie63 01-17-2010, 11:47 AM morning ladies, I'm having a weird couple of days. I ate out a bit, stayed mostly within' my cals but TOO MUCH SODIUM. I am bloated. :( b: vegan mac n cheese leftovers l: zucchini and sweet potato stir fry d: I have no idea. :P throw some hummus and veggies in there too! My mood might be shifting, I'm having a couple of mania symptoms. I'llgive it three more days, if it gets any worse I will have to take some zyprexa for a week or so (which causes weight gain so I try and not take it too often) but this is my manic time, jan-april, sometimes early may. if i make it till june I'm safe. usually. ;) dgramie 01-17-2010, 11:52 AM Rae- you crack me up..at this rate you will be able to eat off your floors. You are doing great keep it up. mj- I so agree with you on the bleachers. My son wrestled for 12 yrs plus baseball for 8 and football for 9yrs. My girls played volleyball and cheered. I lived on the bleachers and I swear my bottom is shaped like it today.LOL bev- i think you shared your head cold with me. Actually I went to our local(huge) antique mall yesterday and spend a few hours just looking around and got so stopped up in there. Its in an old building and I guess lots of mold on the antiques and books. I did buy a pretty wineglass for a dollar. :) soul- I noticed you put the points down for everything..thanks its really helping me.Im new to ww points and still having trouble finding out the points on things. Im going to meet my sister for lunch on monday. We are meeting at a redlobster.Im going to the dotties website and look at the points in the meals so I can plan ahead.Im planning for 2 rolls.LOL breakfast- thin bun-1pt egg whites-1pt ham1 pt coffee 1pt - 4pts total vBulletin® v3.6.7, Copyright ©2000-2015, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.

Continuing her controversial Bangerz tour in the UK, the 21-year-old played a secret club show at iconic London venue G-A-Y. True to form, she did not hold back, getting wild with a giant inflatable penis and slurring obscenities at the raucous crowd, who lapped up every word.
With a drink in hand, she launched in to a massive speech, singling out her recent heartbreak while introducing her hit song 'Wrecking Ball'. According to Miley, "the best kind of revenge is to write a number one song about it". Liam, are you listening?
The 21-year-old also ranted about "all the a—holes that have f---ed me over".
"You know, everyone's a little bit gay … It's the truth," she said to a crowd of cheers.
But wait for it…
"Everyone's gay, all it takes is one cocktail. And if that doesn't work, sprinkle something in their drink. That's what I always do," she finished.
Oh, Miley. You just had to go there didn't you? *facepalm*

Now that everyone has their decorations out for Christmas, I thought it might be fun if we shared some of our painted decorations.
I imagine most of you have seen mine as I've made them, but I'll try to snap some pics so you can see them in place with my other Christmas decorations. Here's a pic or two to start, I'll be back with more later. Luvs |
Follow-Up Postings:
Very cute and adorable. I did a big snowman with a solar light, matter of fact three of them. One for each of my girls and one for me. I also did a grandma gingerbread with her grandchildren as cookies. I will show pics later. |
Luvs...........I forgot! I was here several days ago but was in such a hurry to get to the discussions side I forgot to leave feedback. It is always a joy to see your work because they are all so happy! It is a special gift to be able to make people smile and you have that gift. Thank you for my smile! Belle |
Very nice Luvs!! I'm going to forget how to paint if I don't get back to it just start to get comfortable with the brush & then can't get to it for awhile. There are some half finished garden pots in craft room. Too many crafts too little time!! Post some more, I enjoy your work!! Jan |
- Posted by luvstocraft (My Page) on Wed, Dec 16, 09 at 23:47
I tried to load some more pics in Photobucket yesterday and it gave me an "error on page" both times I tried. I'll have to try it again so I can share a few more pics. Jan, when you finish with all the Christmas goings on, maybe you can grab that brush and finish up those pots so you can share them with us here. I have so many projects that I want to do, but seem to procrastinate or get side tracked way too much! Belle, I'm glad you like the happy little faces too. I really admire those who can paint so realistic, but I'm not that talented--just so glad I can do my cutesy little items that make me smile. I get lots of compliments from friends/neighbors/relatives who visit, and like you, I give lots of them away as gifts. Luvs |
Luvs, It's so fun to come here tonight and see some neat painted projects. Where's your shutter? Did you put it out this year? I'll try to post a few from last year and see if photobucket works for me. Punk |
- Posted by luvstocraft (My Page) on Thu, Dec 17, 09 at 1:17
Punk, glad you are back! Hope you're going to tell us all about your trip over on conversations. I love all your cute little snowmen and gingers--such sweet faces and so happy looking. I've got a few more to share. These were not painted this year, just things I'm using as part of my decor this year. Not sure why my camera is not giving me nice sharp pics all of a sudden, please bear with me, I'm not very tech savy. I'll have to have DH play with a bit to see if he can figure it out for me. Luvs |
Luvs, What neat displays you've made with your painted Snowmen and Santas. I love the way the santas are looking in the top picture. It makes one want to go see what they see.haha Your snowman in the second picture is so neat and I love the way you set your spring snowman and other snowman with it. What's beside it on the right? Looks like a neat pottery piece. And the Jingle Thyme santa and snowman in the last picture is pretty cool too. I was able to download some of my pictures from Photobucket last night and I put most in albums. I wasn't finished but it wouldn't let me move any more and I needed to go to bed. Keep posting and I'll head over to discussions and yak some. TFS Punk |
- Posted by luvstocraft (My Page) on Fri, Dec 18, 09 at 0:38
Glad you enjoyed seeing them Punk, I'll have to take another picture of the whole display. I have sort of a set out window in the living room and it's a perfect place to display them. The santas are in the family room on the shelf above the television. Glad you are back, I'll head over to conversations to read about your trip. ;o) Luvs |
I love them ") snowmen are my favorite, your gals really have some neat stuff. I am so far behind i still have fall on my porch LOL it is a good thing we have no neighbors !! the snow drifter , the sugar & spice & oh those stockings ") sooo cute! ") some times I go by lilly (my garden web name) I'll use it here so I don't butt in on Jan ") will that work? lilly ") |
Luvs and Punk..........I am so glad I started my day here...your paintings warm my heart! And I really see that I need to not only paint for others but keep some for myself, something I have not done before this year. Every one is so beautiful and so different and so beautiful and so clever and did I say beautiful? Thank You for sharing!!!!! I AM PAINTING TODAY!!!!! Belle |
- Posted by luvstocraft (My Page) on Fri, Dec 18, 09 at 13:19
Lilly or Jane, either one is fine, welcome to the forum. Glad you found us, and I hope you will stay and share your projects and ideas with us. When you have time, tell us a little bit about yourself too! Belle, you are so sweet! Yes, you need to paint some things to keep for yourself too. Sometimes I will paint two or three of the same design so I can keep one and have some for gifts. I don't know what happened this year, I had so many Christmas patterns laid out to work on, and just couldn't get going on them. Hopefully, I will do better in the New Year. :o( Luvs |
Hi All, Thanks for all the comments, ladies. Lily, so glad your here to join the fun. Do you paint? We love to have new ones here. Belle, your a doll and need to save some of your projects for yourself. I never keep as much as I should but I had these pictures from last year in Photobucket. I thought that I would get alot more painted but then took off to Vegas and now I don't have any time to paint. With year end coming I don't think you will see anything new from me until after the New Year too. Punk |
- Posted by luvstocraft (My Page) on Tue, Dec 22, 09 at 1:59
How neat Belle, so glad you shared these pics with us. I always intended to paint one of those round santas but never got it done. Cute display of your ornie tags and your pez containers. I see you are a snowman lover like me--don't they just make you smile? Luvs |
Belle, So glad you came and joined the party! Love looking at your paintings from long ago to the latest. You've come a long way BABY!!! Which snowman did DD paint? I painted some like yours on the left side with the sign that says "Have a Merry Christmas." I think I painted everyone in the book and sold oodles of them at $10 each. I think the only one left is the one for Valentines Day at DD home. My DD loves to scrapbook and has never attempted painting. She does beautiful pages and is so creative and would love to own a scrapbooking store. However she always wants painted things to give at Christmas and has alot of my creations hanging in her homes. I had to chuckle to myself when seeing your snow globes. Reminded me of last weekend when we were in Shopko and she made me take her over to all the shops so she could really observe them. She just kept repeating how she really liked them and her voice would go up and down as she would see something new. Twas alot of fun, for sure. I have never painted any blocks and yet I like them for every occasion. What's wrong with me? So cute, I have always liked them and yet never painted any. I sure enjoyed seeing yours and Luvs crafts displayed and TFS. Punk |
- Posted by luvstocraft (My Page) on Thu, Dec 24, 09 at 1:53
I snapped a few more pics of my painted decorations so I could share them with you. Won't be long until they get packed away for another year. I snapped a few shots of some wooden ornaments I've painted as well as a few of the ceramic ones that I painted several years ago. The other pics are a couple of shelves on my bookcases where I've displayed a couple of my painted trays. Luvs |
Luvs.....I love your tray and the snowman with ice cream cones and the "lost and found" and all the ornies! The doggie and the ginger bread girl and all the rest. So many different styles. They are so much fun to look at! How I wish I had kept some of mine and could look back and remember.....I will change that! Punk..My DD make the one with the blue vest. They stayed in our 5th wheel after moving here from NJ - until they found their home. So...as I worked at my day job each day, she worked in and secretly made everyone's gifts that year. The greatest gift she gave me other than my DGS was moving out here! As to the blocks, each line of words are actually one piece of wood that DH just cut lines in with a the table saw. Works so well! There was a heart in there somewhere but it got lost in the shuffle. I also did loads of things from that book about Bazaars..and they sold very well. Luvs....thanks for the happy face you gave me with all of your pictures! Loads of prep today! Merry Christmas Ya'All! Belle |
Good Morning, Luvs, thanks so much for posting more pictures. I think your trays are darling on your bookshelf. I didn't remember the first one but it's great and the little santas beside it are pretty cute. The naughty and nice looks good with the tray and santas. You always display so nice. The second tray is a cutie along with your little bunnies. Wonderful how just a ribbon can make something festive. I really like your ceramic vase and little snowman with his nose in the air. Thanks for showing all your Christmas ornaments. I will try to take a few pictures and post before taking mine down. Belle, thanks for letting us know for sure what snowman DD painted. She did an excellent job painting and I can't believe she's not hooked! You might intimidate her with your painting skills, sad but true sometimes. Punk |

Luvs,Punk and everyone else that posted pictures.All your pictures are GREAT!! I havn't been over here for quite awhile,and it looks like i'll only be coming here to see what you all do.I think my painting days are over,waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.This bout with BC last year has left me with problems with my right arm/hand and i'm right handed.It's hurting like He** just to type this.But i wanted to let you know i can still enjoy what you all do.TFS and Happy New Year,and Happy Painting. Kathi |
- Posted by luvstocraft (My Page) on Sun, Dec 27, 09 at 23:24
Kathi, I'm so glad to hear from you. We've not heard from you for a long time. I'm so sorry to hear you've had to have more surgery, and especially that it has caused problems with your right hand--I know how you love to paint and do cross stitch. I pray that they have taken care of everything now, and that with time, you will regain full use of your hand without the pain. God bless you. Hugs, Luvs |
- Posted by kathi_mdgd (My Page) on Mon, Dec 28, 09 at 17:29
Thanks Luvs,i also hope that in time it gets better,right now i can't even read my own handwriting.LOL I've got lots of things to do and really want to get to them.Flower beds that need weeding and cutting back.Cross stitch and sewing projects that need to be finished up.Don't have anyUFO'S in the painting dept,but have lots i'd like to get to.Reading and TV is getting boring~~~~~~~~~but it's better than the alternative. |
Kathi, so glad you came over to visit and so sorry to hear about your BC. So much for the Golden Years for you right now. I too will pray that you'll be able to paint, take care of those beds and everything else you want to do soon. I went to your page to see where you are from cuz I live in MT and our ground is fozen solid so theres no yard work going on here beside plowing snow.LOL I love gardening and would love to learn to quilt. I'd love to see some of yours if you have any pictures. Thanks for letting us know your looking. Punk |
Christmas may be over with, but I have so enjoyed looking at all of these painted ornaments. You ladies are so blessed and talented to be able to do this. I just love the look of a homemade handmade tree. Your holiday displays are so cute |
Charinky, Thank You! Painting is much more fun when we share it! I love all of the seasons but Christmas is so cheery and bright and if I go real wild with colors, who cares? It's Christmas. This year was really special so I put up more decorations than normal and didn't want to take them down, the were fun and far to often that is lacking in our lives. Please come back and share again. Do you paint? Don't forget to check out the conversations side. Belle |
- Posted by luvstocraft (My Page) on Sun, Jan 24, 10 at 11:11
Hi Charinky, so sweet of you to leave us such a nice post. I'm glad you enjoyed seeing some of the painted decorations we have all made. I always find that hand painted things make me feel happy---and I am often just blown away by the talent and diversity of the painters on this little forum. They motivate me to want to do more and better painting! It would be so great if we could get more painters to join us on here. It's hard to keep it active and fun when none of us paint with any regularity--especially me! LOL Come back and look all you want, there's a whole Gallery section of projects too. And please post your comments or ideas anytime, we will enjoy hearing from you. Luvs |
Hi all, Just wanted to say No I am not a painter, but that would be a dream come true. Especially after seeing all the beautiful things you all make. |

Unsafe driving targeted in Alabama TACT program
VANCE, Ala. (AP) � Alabama Department of Public Safety officials say state troopers will ride along with a commercial driver to crack down on unsafe drivers.
Officials say the ride along on Tuesday is part of the Ticketing Aggressive Cars and Trucks � or TACT � program. The ride along is scheduled from 9 a.m. to noon.
Officials say the TACT program is meant to reduce fatalities and injuries that are linked to unsafe driving behavior including unsafe lane changes, tailgating, failure to use signals, speeding, failure to yield and more.
The ride along is set for a stretch of Interstate 20/59 near Vance, and organizers says troopers will conduct other TACT enforcement programs in the area during the rest of the week.

Pricing, Availability, and Final Thoughts
When it comes to pricing, the MSI variant of the GTX 750 Ti 2GB is going to set you back roughly $10 - $20 more than the SRP of the card. Considering the quality of the cooler, this is really a price increase we don't have a trouble swallowing. The Twin Frozr IV cooler has always done a good job of impressing us.
Here, though, it really shines for multiple reasons. The first is that the Twin Frozr IV is not only a capable cooler that we see a lot, but it's one we see on models that are higher-end then the GTX 750 Ti. Combined with the fact that the cooler is capable on higher-end models with the fact that the new Maxwell chipset runs cooler in general, you end up with a card that runs at extremely low heat and noise levels.
As for the performance of the model, we found ourselves impressed with what NVIDIA was offering with the reference card. Throw in the overclock MSI has offered and this amazing cooler, and you just have a fantastic card that sits in that mid $100 price bracket.
There's no doubt even more fun is to be had with the model via MSI Afterburner. Overclocking the model, you could indeed extend the performance of the model even further. Even if it ran warmer and louder, the numbers would still be significantly lower than so many other cards on the market.
As for the bundle, there's not much going on at all. Apart from a bit of paperwork and a Driver CD, you can see that there's nothing else being offered. We're not too surprised, and really we've got everything that we need.
While the card on a whole sits a bit bigger than the reference card due to the size of the cooler, if that's not a problem, we'd recommend this card in a heartbeat for anyone wanting to spend this kind of money. If noise levels are important to you, this is about the closest thing you will get to a near silent card while still having active cooling. The chances are that the fans in the other part of your system are going to be louder.

Researchers from the UMass Amherst Political Economy Research Institute have released a working paper verifying the ability of American fast food restaurants to more than double the minimum wage of their lowest paid workers to $15 an hour over a four-year period without causing the widespread employment losses and decline in profits often cited by critics of such increases.
A new study, the first comprehensive assessment of native vs. non-native plant distribution in the continental United States, finds non-native plant species are much more widespread than natives, a finding that lead author Bethany Bradley at UMass Amherst called "very surprising."

Hard Cider-Braised Lamb Shanks
From EatingWell.com
Serve these succulent braised lamb shanks dressed in a savory apple-shallot sauce for a special fall supper. The shank, a tougher cut of meat from the top of the leg, becomes fall-off-the-bone tender after simmering in hard cider. Don't skimp on the shallots: peeling 12 of them takes some time, but they are the base for the rich sauce. Serve over mashed rutabaga or potatoes.

- 3/4 teaspoon(s) kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) freshly ground pepper, plus more to taste
- 4 (about 3 pounds, see Tips & Techniques) lamb shanks, trimmed
- 1/2 cup(s) all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoon(s) extra-virgin olive oil
- 12 whole shallots, peeled, root end trimmed but left intact
- 4 clove(s) garlic, peeled
- 3 bottle(s) (12-ounce) hard apple cider (see Tips & Techniques)
- 1 sprig(s) fresh rosemary, plus 1/2 teaspoon chopped, divided
- 3 firm tart apples, such as Granny Smith, Idared, or Cortland, peeled and cut into 8 wedges
- Rub salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper onto lamb shanks. Place flour in a shallow dish; dredge the lamb in the flour to lightly coat on all sides. Tap off any excess flour.
- Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the lamb shanks and brown on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes total. Transfer to a plate.
- Add shallots and garlic to the pan; cook, stirring, until beginning to brown on all sides, about 2 minutes. Carefully pour in hard cider (it may splatter); bring to a boil. Add rosemary sprig.
- Return the lamb and any accumulated juices to the pan. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer, cover, and simmer, checking every 45 minutes to make sure the meat side of the shank is mostly submerged in the cooking liquid, until the lamb is fork-tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours total.
- Transfer the lamb to a serving platter and tent with foil to keep warm.
- Bring the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat and boil for 5 minutes. Stir in apples and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon rosemary and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender (but not falling apart), 10 to 15 minutes more. Return the lamb to the pan, turn to coat with sauce, and cook until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the rosemary sprig. Serve the lamb with the sauce.
Carb Servings: 1 starch, 1 vegetable, 1 1/2 fruit, 3 lean meat, 1 1/2 fat. Carbohydrate Servings: 3. Nutrition Bonus: Folate & Iron (20% daily value), Potassium & Vitamin C (15% dv).
Tips & Techniques
Ingredient note: Lamb shanks are a less common cut, but worth seeking out. If they aren't carried at your supermarket, ask your butcher to order them for you. Some cooks recommend removing the thin white membrane (the "silver skin") before cooking, but we liked the results of either trimmed or untrimmed membranes.
Shopping tip: Hard cider is usually available in 6-packs where beer and wine are sold.

Traders seek realignment of project
Protests may delay project: Collector
Says it up to the government to take a decision
KOCHI: Efforts to initiate the land acquisition process for the proposed Kochi metro rail project suffered a setback on Monday when District Collector A.P.M. Mohammed Hanish called off the demarcation and survey works following opposition from traders on M.G. Road.
The survey of the land identified for the project and its demarcation had been progressing for the last 20 days. The Collector said only the survey and demarcation works along the M.G. Road stretch remained to be completed. It would have been completed in two days. Traders interrupted the work at Jos Junction and the work was suspended forthwith, said Revenue officials.
The Collector ordered the withdrawal of men and machinery as soon as reports of opposition from the traders came in.
"The district administration is determined not to cause any tension by going ahead with the work. Now it is up to the government to take a decision," the Collector said adding that he had informed the State government about the stalemate.
The traders on M.G. Road are demanding realignment of the project through Shanmugham Road instead of M.G. Road as envisaged in the original proposal. The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), the implementing agency, at a high-level meeting held last Monday had turned down this demand on grounds of technical and financial feasibility.
The work, which was started from both ends from Thripunithura and Aluva, now remains bogged down at Ernakulam North and the Jos Junction areas. The 25.3-km-long elevated rail is proposed between Pettah in Thripunithura and Aluva.
The Collector said that it was for the government to decide whether to hold further discussions with the opposing traders or to continue work with police protection.
He said the present stalemate would have a delaying effect on the project. Land acquisition, which was to follow demarcation, would get delayed subsequently, he said.
Once started, the land acquisition process is expected to be completed in eight months at an estimated cost of Rs.75 crore. The State government has already granted Rs. 4 crore to the district administration towards land acquisition.
The government had made it clear that it would go by the recommendations of the DMRC. Law Minister M. Vijayakumar, who is also in charge of railways, reiterated this stand last Saturday when he remarked that the demand of the traders raised "practical" problems.
In a statement issued here, the Kerala Chamber of Commerce and Industry said it was not for a confrontation with the authorities but wanted an amicable settlement to the issue of realignment through proper discussions.
"We want to be heard before recommencing the work on the project," S.A. Mansoor, secretary of the Chamber said. He said realigning the project through Shanmugham Road as demanded by the traders would benefit more people.
