A entire car line was recalled for catching fire for no reason earlier last year. People got in hi-speed wrecks and caused fires, happening to be in a Tesla. The latter gets coverage, the former gets hardly any. No spin from what I can see here, just a disproportionate coverage on a car that's already in the spotlight.

What about genetic abnormalities? XXY? XYY? What about those who have Androgen insensitivity syndrome, where they exhibit superficially female organs and female secondary sex characteristics, but are genetically male?
Additionally, you've also mistaken sex for gender, which is a longer post that I'm too lazy to write.

Well, it would be more fair to include the carbon footprint of producing the gas. Including the footprint of bus production would be the equivalent of including the footprint to produce the bike.

Re:He who archives my tweets (88 comments)
Some of the most important historical knowledge comes from things that people at the time wouldn't consider important. Things like grocery lists can help determine the diets and agricultural abilities of a culture at the time.
For an example I just made up: In the future, the presence or lack of traffic reports could, alongside legal/budget records, help a historian verify the spread/development of roadways.
Twitter could be a huge source of topics and a wealth of information for historians in the future.
They may conclude that we were all idiots. This too, counts as useful information.

Re:They had it comming (183 comments)
I don't see how that applies. I never pointed out a specific behaviour, for one thing; just that there is a certain minimum set of parameters to meet to be reasonably considered 'Anonymous.'
That is, my statement is closer to "No Scotsman doesn't have roots in Scotland"; if someone claims to be Scottish but doesn't exhibit the core of the definition save for affecting a bad accent, then they're just playing at being Scottish.

19 Connecticut Huskies (13-9)
@3 Louisville Cardinals (14-8)
Monday, February 01
Freedom Hall
Attendance: 19,655
19 Connecticut
3 Louisville
Louisville, KY (Sports Network) - Edgar Sosa scored 15 points and handed out eight assists as he helped lead the Louisville Cardinals to an 82-69 win over the Connecticut Huskies in a Big East showdown at Freedom Hall.
Also scoring in double figures for the Cardinals (14-8, 5-4 Big East) were Jerry Smith with 14 points, Samardo Samuels 13 and Reginald Delk 10 points as the squad won for the second time in the last three outings.
The Huskies (13-9, 3-6), who were bounced out of the national rankings on Monday after back-to-back losses to Providence and Marquette last week, were paced by Jerome Dyson who tallied a game-high 18 points on 6-of-17 shooting from the floor. Kemba Walker added 15 points, Stanley Robinson 14 and a game- high 11 rebounds, and Gavin Edwards 13 points off the bench in the team's third straight setback.
Louisville scored the first points of the night and never looked back, using 6-of-10 shooting behind the three-point line in the first half to take a 48-34 lead at the break.
In the second half the Cardinals dipped to 4-of-12 shooting beyond the arc and just 40 percent form the floor overall, but the damage had already been done as the home team picked up the 13-point win over UConn.
In addition to shooting only 37.5 percent from the field, the Huskies also hurt themselves with 18 turnovers, which Louisville traded in for 15 points.
The loss for UConn means the school has now dropped five straight league road dates, the first time that has happened since the 2000-01 campaign.
The schools are due to meet again at the end of this month in Connecticut to complete the season series, one that currently favors the Huskies by a 5-3 count.

Do you doodle? Can you doodle a poodle or a curly pasta noodle? Lest it sounds like I'm about to recommend a Dr. Seuss tale, please bear with me. "Doodle" is one of those words that makes me smile when I say it. So naturally, when I saw this week's book on the shelf at the library, I just had to check it out. Now, not only is "doodle" a favorite word, it will become one of my favorite pastimes thanks to Sunni Brown's compelling argument for a "doodle revolution."
According to the author, two perceptions must be dismissed before the revolution can take place. The first one, very common among adults, is that they can't draw. Sunni Brown argues that she has "not yet met an adult who skipped childhood — a period in which most of us are happy to draw — and went straight to being a 40-year-old." If you can scratch out a stick figure, you can draw. The second perception, also unfortunately acquired in adulthood, is that doodling is a waste of time. If you fall into this camp — it's OK, lots of people do — I will argue that once you've read this book you'll come to see doodling as the author does: thinking in disguise.
Using a combination of amusing anecdotes, fun exercises and relatable examples from work and personal experiences, Brown elevates the doodle from an ill perceived time-waster to a powerful thinking tool.
While her approach may be light-hearted, her message is anything but. Being able to express ourselves through visual language is so important, she says, that if we ignore its value, we are in danger of "crippling … our innate capacity to explore, learn, remember, and think more effectively."
The real "meat" of this doodle of a book, in my opinion, takes place starting in Chapter 4. This is where the author introduces the concept of "infodoodler" — a person who can "transform data, information, and conversation into a more rich, immersive representation of itself, using whatever means are available at the time." The "means," in this case, don't have to be just pencil and scratch paper; other mediums work, too, such as digital devices, software, color markers, even Post-it notes. Think of it as taking doodles to a whole new level.
For a compelling look into doodlers and doodling try this week's "Check It Out" title. Your inner doodler will squiggle with joy!

WSJ Think Tank: Could Tax Extenders Debacle Kick-Start Tax Reform?
December 10, 2014 | Wall Street Journal's Think Tank | News
By Mark Bloomfield Congress is poised to punt yet again. The House has passed a bill to extend the 55 tax provisions that expired in 2013, ending uncertainty for the IRS and for taxpayers, but only for the 2014 tax year. The Senate and the president are likely to go along. Rather than lament lawmakers' inability to do […]

Mark Bloomfield, president and chief executive of the American Council for Capital Formation, a man steeped in the history of tax battles, says we are unlikely to see stand-alone business tax reform, simply because it never has happened before. Politicians aren't inclined to cut taxes for corporations without providing commensurate relief for the little guys, he observes.

E.ON recruits Mumsnet co-founder to help rebuild image
Energy giant E.ON is bringing in Mumsnet co-founder Justine Roberts to advise on how it can win back consumers amid an atmosphere of growing resentment towards the energy sector.
Justine Roberts: fMumsnet co-founder to help revamp E.ON's public image
Roberts will sit on an advisory panel, which will also include former Asda boss Allan Leighton and former Labour MP Paddy Tipping, which will scrutinise changes being considered by E.ON, as the firm attempts to convey the message that its customers are getting a good and fair deal.
Roberts said her £25,000 fee would be donated to charity and revealed that the advisory panel would meet intermittently for six months, with the first meeting scheduled for the end of this month.
She said: "I'm there to reflect the frustrations of Mumsnetters and help them [E.ON] get it right with their customer base."
Roberts will relay to E.ON the strong feelings felt in the Mumsnet community about "the number of different tariffs, how they are set up, issues around billing, whether they overcharge you, what they do with that money, whether they give you something back."
She is donating her fee between two charities – Sense and Sciences' Libel Reform Campaign, which makes sense of scientific and medical claims, and the Anthony Nolan Trust, the bone marrow charity.
The energy sector has hit the headlines during the past two weeks after dropping their prices and launching marketing campaigns to herald the price drop.
E.ON announced it would drop its energy prices by 6% on Monday (16 January) with changes coming into affect on 27 February.
This follows E.ON increasing its gas prices by 18% and its energy prices by 11% in September last year.
Separately, British Gas has today (18 January) launched a press campaign advertising the fact it was the only major energy supplier to announce a price cut and implement it on the same day.

lavonn, I had this plant once but lost it. It kept its colour well because it was in a very bright greenhouse. I think light may be the significant factor. |
Thanks, Marguerite! |
Lavonn, what a pretty plant! I have zero experience with this particular oxyalis but I can share that these plants, as a whole, do great in a lot more sun than most people think. I have always grown my purple oxalis, for example, in the full outdoor sunlight where they flower profusely and grow like crazy. In shadier conditions, they become lanky, lean, and not nearly so Good luck with your plant. |
Love It! I'll try more light. |

Charles V
Charles V
biographical name(born Jan. 21, 1338, Vincennes, Francedied Sept. 16, 1380, Nogent-sur-Marne) King of France (1364–80). He raised money to ransom his father, John II, from the English, under the terms of the Treaty of Brétigny. Crowned king on his father's death in 1364, Charles helped the country recover its losses in the first phase of the Hundred Years' War. When war with England broke out again (1369), he won a series of victories for the French that nullified the damaging treaties of 1360. The plots of his enemy Charles II (of Navarra) prompted him to seize most of the king's French lands. His support of Pope Clement VII helped cause the Western Schism.

Rovio might be planning to release a completely new version of its popular Angry Birds game on 22 March.
The new game will be the company's first official launch following the launch of Rio earlier in 2011. A new teaser for the game has surfaced, but there is not much information about Angry Birds Space.
The Angry Birds Space is expected to be a completely separate game. According to some reports, the players will be taking the birds to new planets where they could face zero gravity and the game could involve slow motion puzzles and 'lightspeed' destruction.
Yahoo's Plugged In blog said that NASA and National Geographic are partnering Rovio as launch partners for the new game. However, further information about their contribution is not available. Angry Birds Space is expected to launch not only for mobile phones but also through retail and animation channels for the gamers from around the world.
Angry Birds Rio was released in partnership with 20th Century Fox. The game is based on an Angry Birds movie of the same title that the company made with Fox.

Yield: 2 dozen dates
In 1996, Dorothy Dillon entered 100 dishes at the fair, hoping to win enough prize money to buy her mother a freezer and clothes dryer. Dorothy happily reported that she earned more than $500, which she used to purchase the appliances for her mom, Jean Branson.
- 24 pitted dates
- 2 cups sugar
- 1/2 cup hot water
- 1/2 cup light corn syrup
- 2 egg whites
- 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Slice the dates down the center, being careful not to cut through. Place the sugar, water, and corn syrup in a medium-size saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until you can spin thread. Whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Remove half the cooked syrup and add to the egg whites, blending well. Cook the remaining syrup to the hard-ball stage (255 degrees F). Add the nuts and vanilla; mix well. Add this mixture to the egg white mixture and beat until stiff but not dry. Place 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of each date. Wrap with plastic and store in an airtight container.Updated Monday, March 24th, 2003

High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), also known as H.265, promises twice the compression possible with Blu-ray's best video compression methods. But how does it work, and is it enough to get us better-looking 4K content?
Few budget speakers look or sound this good, says the Audiophiliac.
The H.265 video standard, aka HEVC or MPEG-5, squeezes more pixels over a network connection to support new high-resolution 4K TVs. Broadcom's chip supports both and is due to arrive in volume next year.
The next-gen video compression technology shrinks video by 40 to 45 percent compared to today's prevailing H.264. But encoding H.265 video takes a long time right now.

New Zealand's central bank extended a period of record-low borrowing costs that began almost two years ago as a rising currency and sluggish domestic demand contain inflation. The local dollar advanced.
"We expect economic growth to strengthen over the coming year, reducing spare capacity and bringing inflation slowly back towards the 2 percent target midpoint," Reserve Bank Governor Graeme Wheeler said in a statement released today in Wellington, after keeping the official cash rate at 2.5 percent.
Wheeler is betting that slow economic growth and benign inflation don't justify a rate cut because reconstruction from earthquakes and housing investment will boost domestic demand later this year. The New Zealand dollar's 7.5 percent gain the past two years has made imports cheaper, keeping annual inflation under his 2 percent target.
"The high exchange rate is set to provide more of the necessary monetary tightening, leaving less work for interest rates," Dominick Stephens, chief New Zealand economist at Westpac Banking Corp. (WBC) in Auckland, said ahead of the statement. He expects no change in the cash rate until December.
New Zealand's dollar strengthened, buying 83.41 U.S. cents at 9:03 a.m. in Wellington compared with 83.21 cents immediately before the statement.
Today's rate decision was forecast by all 16 economists in a Bloomberg News survey. Seven predict a rate rise this year and nine see no change until 2014.
Extended Pause
The central bank has left the benchmark borrowing cost unchanged since March 2011 to allow the economy to recover after the nation's deadliest quake in 80 years. The February 2011 temblor struck Christchurch, New Zealand's third-largest city, and the surrounding Canterbury province, killing 185 people and closing the central city.
Gross domestic product increased 0.2 percent in the three months through September, according to a government report last month. Consumer prices fell in the fourth quarter from the July- September period and rose 0.9 percent in the year through December, a Jan. 18 report showed.
Wheeler's annual inflation target is the midpoint of a 1 percent to 3 percent range.
Still, construction expanded the most in 10 years in the third quarter, boosted by rebuilding in Christchurch. Construction costs rose 10 percent in the city and the surrounding Canterbury region in the year ended Dec. 31, compared with the 3.1 percent pace across the whole country.
Fletcher Building Ltd. (FBU), the nation's biggest supplier of construction materials, is the best performer this year on the benchmark NZX 50 stock index, gaining 12 percent amid predictions of rising earnings from earthquake-related work.

KB Home (NYSE: KBH), one of the nation's premier homebuilders, today announced that it will include solar power systems as a standard feature of its Built to Order™ homes in select communities in Central Florida. The systems can help KB homeowners reduce their monthly energy bills by as much as 50% when compared to a typical resale home and lower their cost of homeownership for years to come. KB Home's Fisher Plantation in Apopka will be the first community in the area to include solar power systems as standard.
"We're excited to take a leading role in bringing solar power systems to the mainstream in Central Florida," said George Glance, president of KB Home's Central Florida division. "While many love the year-round warmth and abundant sunshine we are lucky enough to enjoy here in Florida, staying comfortable in this weather can also take a toll on our wallets when we get the monthly electric bill. Consumers who buy a Built to Order™ KB home with a standard solar power system get the value of a custom home-like experience plus the benefit of having the sun help reduce their energy bills."
To illustrate the potential benefit of solar power systems and the many other energy-efficient features of its homes, KB Home provides consumers with its Energy Performance Guide ® (EPG ®), which shows an estimate of both monthly energy costs for each home as designed as well as estimated monthly savings over a typical resale home. For example, at KB Home's Fisher Plantation in Apopka, a one-story, three bedroom home with the standard solar power system included, is estimated to save a homeowner over $1,200 annually on energy costs when compared to a typical resale home. Pricing for these homes will start in the low $200,000s.
Fisher Plantation is KB Home's newest community of Built to Order homes in Central Florida. Homebuyers have their choice of seven home designs with three to six bedrooms, two to four and a half baths and two- or three-car garages. The one- and two-story homes will all be built on the community's extra-large homesites so owners can enjoy ample outdoor living space.

Can anyone provide a bit of guidance on what may be wrong with my palm and advice how to correct? Leaves continue to fall leaving it relatively bare in many places. It was planted in March and began to look like this shortly after. I used a 6-2-0 organic fertilizer when it was planted, and again roughly two weeks ago. I water weekly if we don't get rain, but the last 2 months we've been drenched. Thanks in advance for your help! |

This strain is definitely a keeper in a collection. It is a speedy colonizer and enjoys a wide range of temps from 60s to temps in the low 90s. This gulf cost strain originated somewhere near the Gulf of Mexico, presumably around the Texas Coast.We've heard reports from customers in Amsterdam praising the strain's magical properties, making it an excellent well balanced cubie. Gulf Coasts grow long, slender and dense with a very fleshy stem. Stems often grow close to 20" inches in length in bigger substrates. Cap colors are some of the lightest found in the cubensis realm. Caps are often light yellow or beige, sometimes gold or bronze colored as well with a darkened center spot.

LA Weight Loss - LAWL Friends and Losers Thread July 6th-12thView Full Version : LAWL Friends and Losers Thread July 6th-12th JerseyMadchen 07-06-2009, 10:00 AM Morning guys! JerseyMadchen 07-06-2009, 10:07 AM This morning I am happy to be back on the wagon! THis weekend was pretty disasterous plan-wise! I will be doing Cardioke today with my friend and walking a mile afterwards. How was everyone's weekend? Repo girl 07-06-2009, 10:32 AM Morning! We camped this weekend and had a great time. Yesterday morning I hiked into an old, sleeping volcano with my mom, sister, and kids. It was so hard on me, but I was pretty darn proud to get clear to the top. The caldera was really neat, and the view was amazing. Have fun working out Amy! bradleys mom 07-06-2009, 11:26 AM *Peeking in* Hi everyone! Hope you all are doing great! I am starting over today, renewed my weight watchers sub. I have done well so far and am getting ready to go for a walk! I will try to check back in more often! :) Hoochie 07-06-2009, 11:46 AM I was terrible this weekend. I was at a family reunion! All I can say is I ate way too much. I feel like a blob today!!! I have to get back on track today!! I brought a nice fruit salad for lunch. No more buns and meat and dessert.......agh!! I need to drink my water today too. I just hate when I lose my control to food....... It was lots of fun catching up with relatives but I am glad to be back at home. Have a great week everyone! Nice to see you back "Bradleys Mom"!!! Kristinx 07-06-2009, 12:28 PM Morning all. I'm here plugging away...haven't stepped on a scale since last week....I'm sure there's damage to report. Slowly but surely getting back on track...and still smoke free! sweetandspicy 07-06-2009, 12:48 PM Good Monday morning to you all!!! I too did not do well this weekend and the end of last week. I just can not seem to make good food choices. We have been busy and I just have not been planning well. But today I am back on track and doing take off tomorrow and Wednesday in hopes of a cleansing and recommittment to weight loss. I have not had a gain so that is enough to keep me motivated to continue. I as Joan described feel like a blob today and I can not help but keep thinking nothing taste as good as thin is going to feel!! So I am going to make sticky notes that say that and post them on my computer at work, in my car and on the Fridge at home. Amy- you are doing great on the exercises..way to go!!! KristinX- excellent job on not smoking!!! KAtie- how exciting a volcano!! I bet it was beautiful.. Joan- way to recognize bad eating habits and way to recommitt !! To everyone else have a Happy Monday!! JLem311 07-06-2009, 01:23 PM morning all. good to "see" you kimberly. stop in more often! how are you boys doing? not much to report..TOM is here and this being my second one post baby and my tubal, it's brutal. i've never been in this much pain before, so it definitely sucks. be back later. hope everyone has a good start to the week. and for those praying for me...thank you and keep 'em coming..i need it badly. winkie03 07-06-2009, 01:41 PM Just though I'd swing by and check in....Jillian! Congrats on the new baby! I'm praying for you. Katie-Hey Lady, it's been a long time. Everyone else...Hello!! Repo girl 07-06-2009, 02:09 PM Hey Evette, good to see you! Kimberly- Good luck with WW! Kristin- Good job! BarbaraB 07-06-2009, 03:31 PM Kristin, Good for you! It is crazy how expensive it is. I had no idea that it would be that much to be a smoker. Hi Evette! Jillian, Add my prayers and good wishes with the rest. It always uplifts me in times of trouble to count the blessings in my life. It is worth the trouble to focus on the positive side of things, negative thoughts can drown a whole world of happiness. We can't control what happens only how we react to it. I got the results from my cholestrol test and they were a bit high. Between discovering I had gained 20 pounds since I last stepped on a scale and that my cholestrol was now borderline high, I am determined to take better care of myself than that.... 7 days a week too. We can do this, and we must do this to obtain optimum health. Mama Nicole 07-07-2009, 12:52 AM Hi friends.....and Hi Evette :) It's been a while... Katie......you are way braver than I. It sounds really fun though, and how lucky are you all that your mom is healthy enough now to hike :) Whoohooo to that!!!! Speaking of healthy......I went to see my friend in the hospital today. She was diagnosed with stage IV melanoma to the lung, and she was beginning a series of high dose chemo inpatient treatments. She is one of my oldest, dearest friends, and I just can't believe she and her family have to go through this. I don't know if any of you remember last year or so, when I totally talked some smack about a friend and got busted by her.......and how bad she felt, and how awful I felt.......well, this is the girl. She is only 37 or 38 and has a 5 yo DS and a 3 year old DD. She seems to be the only thing I can think about lately.......and I just can't seem to stop crying about it. Anyway, if you all could send her some of whateve ryou send.....whether it be prayers, good vibes.........whatever it is you do..........I know she would appreciate it. :hug: Jillian.....sorry about the killer TOM. That just sucks. Hang in there, Amy6.......rough spots are hard to get over......but you can do it :) Hi JerseyAmy.......WTG on your positive attitude. Cheer up, Joan. I know how bad it sucks when food owns you.......but you are stronger.........and look at you........you still look fabulous.......so you aren't completely out of it.......you don't have mountains to climb......just some hills to battle.....and Katie hiked a volcano this weekend......so you can totally pull it off. Hi Kimberly. I saw your website with the cloth diapers. That is so cool that you have found this hidden talent of yours. I used cloth diapers with my oldest DD cuz she was sooo sensitive. Very cool. And Kristin, Kristin, Kristin........only 15 more days until being smoke free is a habit. I am sooo proud of you for sticking with it. Believe it or not, one day you will actually say, "I am so glad I don't smoke anymore." I just said it last night to DH :) Ok, I should get my booty to bed.........I am driving Miss Maria half way to Wisconsin tomorrow. She is going to stay with my mom and her mom for a week while we go camping.......and good Lord, don't get me started about camping....and misquitos......and snakes....... XOXO AngieH75 07-07-2009, 09:02 AM Morning ladies, My weekend was not what I expected. I was hoping to have a nice weekend with DBF and instead we spent Saturday in separate rooms of the house and Sunday he decided that he was done. So I moved into the spare bedroom that afternoon and started packing yesterday afternoon when I got home from work. While I was moving into the spare bedroom, he came up to tell me that I didn't need to do that. Mixed messages anyone?? I'm thinking a sure fire weight loss plan will be moving back into my townhouse (thank goodness it didn't sell) and getting over and moving on from this relationship. I'm going through a couple different emotions, anger, sadness and indifference. I was angry Sunday but managed to keep it in check. I was angry yesterday when I got home and had to move things from the basement to the front room while he was out with a friend. While I was at work yesterday I was sad and while I was packing I became indifferent. But I think that came from focusing on packing and not thinking about much else. I'm angry because Scrappie (my dog/child) losses her yard and her doggie neighbor's. She's very confused and staying very close to me. I'm working hard to focus on the things I need to get done to get out of that house as soon as I can. I think that now that the decision had been made to end our relationship (his decision, not mine) the sooner I can move out, the better it will be for both of us. I told him after the last time I came back home, the next time he wants me to leave, that's it. It's over. I won't continue to live in limbo while he decides if this can work. He refuses to do what is necessary to make our relationship work, actions speak louder than words and I've done and said everything I can. Sunday when he told me "I'm done", I just didn't have any more fight left in me, he's drained it all out of me. Thanks for "listening", have a great OP day! JerseyMadchen 07-07-2009, 10:22 AM Morning guys! Angie- I am so sorry your weekend ended up like that! Hang in there chickadee, it sounds like it's for the best. You're right about the limbo thing, it sounds like he's controlling hte relationship and everthing is on his time. FOrget that! This is your time now! Kimberly- welcome back!! How's WW?? Nicole- you are a better woman than I... with the whole camping!! I could never do it! Bugs and dirt and who knows what else! Kristin- good work on the cigarettes. Keep it up!! Evette- Hello! Barbara- sorry to hear about your cholesterol! But glad to hear about you getting healthy! Amy6- Stick to your montra "one day at a time, one pound at a time." We all have setbacks,especially around holidays! You have come so far, just jump right back on the wagon! Jillian- good morning! How are you today! Well, my calves are KILLING me from yesterday. I did water aerobics, swam 8 laps, and did TBL's Boot Camp workout from On Demand. I was standing in the pool while talking to my friend doing knee lifts. I was trying to bring up my knees to the surface. Idid that for like 10 minutes and then was like I don't feel anything, so I'll stop. I no sooner get out of the pool and start walking on solid groud that I felt it!! We got rid of our Sprint cell service last night, they are Awful!!!! Well, here's to an OP day! Hoochie 07-07-2009, 12:46 PM Kristin- Way to go girl! You are a non-smoker now. Doesn't it feel wonderful! Amy M- I see you are going to do a cleanse. I bought one at a womens show last month but I still haven't done it. I keep thinking I am going to be in the bathroom the whole time while I am at work. Have you done them before? Jillian- I am thinking of you and hoping that things get better. Try and keep your chin up. Barbara- My DH had high cholestrol and the doctor changed lots of his eating habits. Did your doctor tell you to cut out certain foods as well? Nicole- You are too kind to me. Thank you for telling me I look fabulous. I don't always feel that way. I know I only have hills to climb but they are steep hills.....Last night since I was feeling like a blob, I walked on the treadmill for 30 minutes and then I did weights for 10 minutes. I really needed that! Angie- Relationships are so tough...I totally feel for you. I have been thru a tough break up with my husband. We are together now but we were separated for 10 months in the beginning of our relationship. Be true to yourself!!! Oh yes and I am going to put a sticky on my desk today. I like Amy M idea. " Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels" I love it!!! Okay well gotta run. Have a great day everyone. Dan2112 07-07-2009, 01:08 PM Hey ladies... I'm still here, just plowed under at work and dealing with some other stuff.. Between now and October, I probably won't be too active, and I'm forcing myself to focus on a couple of huge projects here at work.. Frankly, it's starting to weigh me down, not just with workload, but also boredom... These are good projects, but I've been working on them for so long that I really just don't care anymore.. Blah... Anyway, all is well with Liz and the kiddos.. She's been really struggling lately, as both of us have gotten lazy about what we're eating.. But we're working on it! Wish I had time for personals, but I really just wanted to dive in and say "hi"... BarbaraB 07-07-2009, 03:13 PM Angie, Life is too short to spend it with someone who does not value you. My dad says that the opposite of love is not hate, but indifference. Scrappie is probably just picking up on your upset feelings and wants to be there for you. Dogs can be very sensitive that way. Joan, I really blame the low carb diet that I was trying there for a few weeks for making my cholestrol numbers higher. I really believed what I had read, that those diets actually lower cholestrol instead of raise it. I don't think that was the case for me. They said to give up fried foods, which I haven't even had a single fry for months. I guess they assume anyone who has gained weight lives off from fast food, and is not just someone who has let their portions grow ever so slightly over time. I've gone back to measuring and carefully monitoring how much goes into my mouth. Drink some green tea or some hot lemon water (or the magical hot green tea with lemon) and it really does clear out some of that "blob" feeling and clears some bloat away. Plus it is supposed to be very good for you. Amy, Wow, you must be getting into pretty good shape this summer. That is fantastic. Nicole, I don't mind camping, as long as there are not any snakes... We have a tent trailer though, and I can go inside and be bug and snake free. Plus there is a heater and I don't have to sleep on the ground. My DH wants to go backpacking again... oh my.... at least if you hike high enough into the mountains there are not any snakes.... I suppose we'll go sometime, as we didn't go last year but went to Hawaii instead. Jillian, my thoughts are still with you and hoping whatever is wrong is getting better every day. Luckybustert 07-07-2009, 09:51 PM Hey everyone, just stopping by to say hello and see how everyone is doing! I enjoyed the fourth of July holiday a little too much and am now trying to recover from that. I fell off the low carb wagon and hubby fell off the LAWL wagon, so now we're both trying to get back on the right track. Barbara, my personal experience has been that low carb will lower cholesterol and this is supported by recent studies <http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/07/16/health/main4266414.shtml> BUT --and this is a very important caveat -- it has to be a permanent lifestyle change. It's not a diet you can do only temporarily then go back to the way you were eating before without consequence. Also important to remember cholesterol is not just caused by what we eat, it can also be an issue of heredity. Anyway, I hope your cholesterol levels improve soon and I agree with you that different things affect people differently. Also agree with you on the hot lemon water - wonderful, wonderful stuff! JerseyMadchen - woohoo for you on the water aerobics!!! That is the most awesome exercise.....I love it! (And need to get my expandabutt back into a class real soon!) Nicole, sorry to hear about your friend.....sending positive energy her way. Everyone else - hope you are having a wonderful week and enjoying some sunshine and fresh air! I'm going to go get ready to see a movie now....."Public Enemies" with Johnny Depp.....feasting on eye candy tonight! :D skatardrummer 07-07-2009, 09:55 PM This morning I am happy to be back on the wagon! THis weekend was pretty disasterous plan-wise! I will be doing Cardioke today with my friend and walking a mile afterwards. How was everyone's weekend? What's cardioke? JerseyMadchen 07-07-2009, 10:58 PM Skatardrummer- Cardioke is a workout that is available On Demand. I have Comcast, and that's how I get it. The workout is a cardio workout that involves you singing. We took 2 minutes to watch it and then never did it! sweetandspicy 07-08-2009, 09:02 AM Good Wednesday morning to you all!! I have been eating well for the most part I still feel slightly bloated and am having some other issues, I am simply not getting enough fiber. I am going to fix that today. The kids have all been here and there and I have not been cooking or grocery shopping consistantly so my food options have been limited. Oh well I just seem full of excuses lately. Joan- I have done several cleanses and yes usually I do end up in the bathroom most of the first day anyway. This last one I bought at an organic food store and it did not really do the job I was hoping for. I really think a lot of it depends on what you have been eating. I think If you are eating somewhat healthy and do not have a lot of excess you probably would not be in the BR all day? Nicole- I am will pray for your friend. Amy- great job on your exercise!! I wish we had comcast for the on demand options Barabra- you will figure it out. Good luck with getting your cholesterol down. Dan- hope your projects get more exciting Angie- i agree 100% with Barabarb life is to short to be unhappy!! Lucky- you both will get back on track, you have done such a great job so far!! Hope everyone has a wonderful wednesday!! Hoochie 07-08-2009, 12:30 PM Amy M- I am on vacation in a couple of weeks, I think I may start my cleanse at the end of my vacation so that my body has a few days to adjust. I have never tried one before so I will let you know how it goes. Its a 14 day cleanse. It's Calgary Stampede time here right now so I am avoiding the grounds thats filled with mini-donuts, candy apple, cotton candy and corn dogs. I was going to head to the rodeo this weekend but I just can't decide. Our city is so busy right now. If you don't know what the stampede is, it's the greatest outdoor show on earth...so they say! Our city is full of tourists right now. Last night, they showed Jillian from the bacherlorette on the news as she is here for the stampede. It's kind of fun. I get to wear jeans and dress like a cowgirl for a week. Okay gotta run, have a great day! JerseyMadchen 07-08-2009, 05:25 PM Hey guys! Not much going on here.. stupidly got on the scale this morning and was up 2.5 lbs. I know it's TOM and this past weekend, but it's still dissapointing, ya know? I had a great 1 hour workout today, and will get all my veggies and water in, so we'll see. Tennis tonight too, I can't wait! Mama Nicole 07-09-2009, 02:13 AM Where's Katie? JLem311 07-09-2009, 10:14 AM morning all. these past few days have been rough. actually, this whole week has been. i've gotten to spend the past few days with the kids though, they were here all day tue and yesterday. it was nice, yet hectic. ;) i finally managed to get a good workout in today..elliptical, ab/arms it was good. i've only been able to manage to squeeze in abs/arms all this week, no cardio. it sure has taken a toll on my mood. that and combine with a brutal TOM (that is almost done, thankfully!) accompanied with everything else going on in my life..it just hasn't been good. anyways..i never said this, but my grandmother died this past sunday. and because of everything going on in my life i wasn't able to go and attend the funeral with the rest of my family. (the visitation was yesterday and funeral today) so now my whole family thinks i'm this a-hole of a person for not going (and i'm not in a position to explain to anyone what's going on in my life right now that's preventing me from going...among other things) so i guess i'll just let them continue to think just that. oh well. they don't know what is going on and i'm not ready to reveal just yet, so i'll just let them keep thinking that and judging me and gossiping amongst themselves about me. i feel like i don't need to justifiy myself or my life to my family and yet, they think that they need to know everything all the time. my mom and my sister are the huge gossips. if i tell one of them something, the other will know almost immediately regardless if i wanted it to be shared or not. so, because of that, i have learned that i can't be open with either of them. it's sad, but the way it has been for years and years. and yet, neither one of them understands why i'm so distant/non-communicative with either of them. ha. funny, isn't it? ok, on a different note, i found some great workouts on www.exercisetv.tv it's got tons of great free workouts..long or short ones. :) i've found some good arm and ab workouts. one is called wedding dress arms. it's awesome! anyways..gotta go. i'll be back later. thanks for listening to me ramble. JerseyMadchen 07-09-2009, 11:19 AM Hey guys! Jillian- I am sorry to hear about your grandmom's passing, that sucks! I wish I still had my Mom's mom around... I miss her and my grandpop horribly. They never met my DH, when they died, I was dating this other guy and thought I was going to marry him. The last thing my grandpop said to me was "You still in love Amy?" My dad's mom is alive still but I am not a fan. She was our favorite growing up because she lived 10 minutes away. My mom's parents lived 2 hours. Then, when my parents were divorcing, she started saying AWFUL things about my mom to us kids. So, I have written her off. We actually call her BFG. And not from Roald Dahl either… B*tch face grandmother we call her!! Hang in there with your family. You had a right to not go, I am sure… don't worry your pretty head about it!! I went to play tennis last night and was just horrible. I was slow and had zero energy. I am thinking it was a combination of eating right before we came out and having worked out for more than an hour earlier on. I keep plugging along with the working out, hoping it will show soon! Hoochie 07-09-2009, 11:52 AM Jillian- I am so sorry to hear about things going on in your life. You are right though, you do not have to justify yourself. That is something that I have to constantly work on with my family especailly my Mom. Everytime I can't do something that my Mom wants me to do, I give her a reason as to why and I shouldn't have to....I am 42 years old. For me, I have guilt trips from my Mother, I always have and I just can't get rid of it. Anyways, I am so sorry to hear about your Grandma and I really hope things get brighter for you soon, Take care Jillian! Repo girl 07-09-2009, 12:00 PM Morning guys! Nicole- I am here! I have been thinking about your friend, and sending some Reiki her way. Jillian- So sorry to hear about your grandma. It is your right and responsibility to do what is best for you and your family, so stick to your guns. Sounds like you have enough on your plate as it is. Sending some energy to you and your situation right now! I am just plugging along. We have had a very nice, mostly 70's week here. I am writing a book, and have vowed to have it done by Halloween, no matter what! So, I am getting up early and writing, plus writing while the kids are laying down. I have 70 pages done so far, but I think that it will take at least 100 more to get it finished. Needless to say, I am saturated in the book right now. Have a great day everyone! JLem311 07-09-2009, 01:09 PM thanks everyone. i appreciate all the thoughts/prayers/good vibes. it just sucks that my family is the way they are. supportive of things that they like or are in favor of and very unsupportive of things that they don't like or don't think i should be doing with my life...for example, when i decided to move to NC, my entire family bombarded me with horrible emails about how i was going to ruin my life and my kids lives by moving away, but then as soon as i had plans to move back, they were all excited and happy and were doing whatever they could to help me. ha. what a joke. so whenever i make decisions they think that they need to put in their two cents and then make me feel terrible for it or they hope they can change my mind. i thought family was to support you in whatever decision you chose..weather they like it or not? guess my family doesn't quite understand that concept. and so, i am constantly the outcast because i make bold, sometimes unconventional decisions. maybe they are a bit jealous because of that, i don't know? anyways...thanks for all the support here. i really appreciate it. BarbaraB 07-09-2009, 01:58 PM Jillian, They probably just worry about you and express it poorly. Sorry to hear that your grandma passed and that it happened at time when you couldn't manage to go to the service. If you can get a quiet minute perhaps you can light a candle and say a blessing for her. It is really hard as a parent to not talk about your children.... So I'm less judgemental about my blabber mouthed mother than I used to be. Heck I bet you could scandalize Jagger in about 10 years by saying that you posted online about his potty training progress. Katie, how exciting to write a book. How do you find the time? Nicole, I hope your friend is cured. It sounds so dire. She is so young to be facing such a serious illness. My sister and I are going to go and be hypnotized for weight loss. I'm excited and hope this helps me to improve some of my habits. I'll let you know how it goes. Repo girl 07-09-2009, 03:19 PM Oh, I can't wait to hear how it goes! I have seriously considered doing that as well! JerseyMadchen 07-10-2009, 12:05 AM Wow, how cool! I can't wait to hear how it goes~ sweetandspicy 07-10-2009, 12:09 PM Jillian- I hope everything gets better soon.. Joan- That sound like a good plan for your cleanse BarbarB- Let us know how the hypnosis works Katie- Good luck withyour book Amy- great job on exercising I hope everyone is having a fabulos Friday!! I can not wait for the weekend!!! Hoochie 07-10-2009, 04:55 PM Barbara- Oh please tell us how the hypnosis works. I have also thought that would be cool. Is it expensive I just came back from a big outdoor stampede lunch. I did have a hamburger but I enjoyed it with veggies instead of chips and potato salad....baby steps! Have a wonderful weekend everyone. I am so excited that its Friday. Jillian- Take care of yourself. I hope you are okay....... Joan JLem311 07-10-2009, 05:51 PM hello all..i don't have much to say today, but i thought i'd stop in and say hi. i hope everyone has a good weekend. thanks for all the good thoughts/prayers. i appreciate it and hope it helps. emmysmom 07-10-2009, 11:33 PM Hi everyone! I'm back!!! I don't know who remembers me, but I did great with my last round of LAWL then I got pregnant (funny, I did the same thing with my first daughter). So I had another baby girl in February and now I'm trying to lose the baby weight...not wait until she turns 3 like I did last time. It looks like most of you were here from before...with some other new mommies :-) Jillian and Nicole - I'm praying for you both. I haven't seen or talked to my dad in 6 years (long story) and just found out a week ago that he has lung cancer that has spread to his bones. He was given 1-30 days to live. The good news is that I called him and we've been talking on the phone and visiting each other. It's been a whirlwind week, but I feel so blessed to have this time with him and to be able to put the past behind us. The whole experience made me think about how I need to take better care of myself. He's only 55 and I want to be around a long time for my girls. But on a brighter note, I'm looking forward to chatting with you all again!!! Sorry for the rollercoaster of emotions in this post :-( ferrarimomof2 07-12-2009, 01:09 AM Hello everyone, It has been a while I know. My cookies got erased and I couldn't get logged back on because I forgot my password and couldn't get it to reset. Some of you already know because of Facebook, but I thought that I would share the news with the rest of you. My husband and I are expecting our third child in December. I am excited. I will definitely be checking in to try and keep up with everyone. I have missed you guys. And I will definitely need some advice from ya'll after the baby arrives on how to handle the weight loss with breastfeeding. I have already gained 22lbs and I am only halfway. I am trying to watch the weight but it is so hard to do anything when you are so nauseated. I think it is starting to go away but I still have my days. I hope that everyone is doing great and staying on track. I will try and make it a habit again about checking in with you guys. You are all such great support. Luckybustert 07-12-2009, 05:40 AM Lucky- you both will get back on track, you have done such a great job so far!! Thanks for the encouragement! :) As it turns out, it was just my monthly blimp...lol....does everyone else (those who are female) gain weight right before TOM? It is so frustrating to see the scales jump upward like that! But anyway, the blimp is gone now...have lost what I gained plus 0.6 more. My jeans are starting to get baggy on me but not quite baggy enough to buy new pants yet. But SOON!! JerseyMadchen 07-12-2009, 05:49 PM Hey guys! Tina & Dionne- Welcome back!! Tina- glad to see you're back on the wagon! You and Jillian are both going to kick the baby weight in NO time!! Your baby is adorable!! Dionne- Even if you're not following or OP, keep talking to us!! We're dwindling fast!! Suzanne- baggy and losely fitting clothes are SOOO awesome! I remember a few weeks ago when I was able to tighten my belt one hole, I was so excited! I too get a monthly blimp! I love that, i am going to say that from now on!! I gain about 5-7 lbs with TOM, and then it disappears ina week. UGH!, frustrating. I got on the scale this past Wednesday really excited to see my exercising and OP skills pay off. NOPE. I was 235. I knew it was TOM approaching, but I was soooo upset. Today is was down to 233.5, and I am on day #3 of TOM, so there will be more to come off! I started the 30 Day Shred with Jillian Michaels today. Holy crap!! I thought I was going to die! I literally was crying while working out. I feel bad now if I bad mouthed any TBL contestants for crying in the gym. She's intense!! I am looking forward to building endurance in the next few days! ferrarimomof2 07-12-2009, 11:24 PM Thanks Amy. Keep up the hard work you know that it will pay off. I would join you if I could. I love to watch Jillian Michaels. Repo girl 07-13-2009, 01:33 AM Tina- Hey girl! So glad to see you! How is Miss Emmy handling being a big sister? Dionne- Congratulations! How exciting for you! We have been in Montana digging crystals this weekend, with a lot of adventures, including almost hitting an antelope at 65 miles per hour, seeing a fox slinking down the side of the road, camping on a sidehill the first night, having deer walking right up to our camper both nights, getting the worst sunburn on my back I have ever had, digging some beautiful, amazing crystals, and blowing a tire on the way home. We really did have a blast. It was nice to hang out with the kids and DH, and my sisters. I am glad to sleep in my bed tonight, however! Clanori 07-13-2009, 09:37 AM Hello everyone, It has been a while I know. My cookies got erased and I couldn't get logged back on because I forgot my password and couldn't get it to reset. Some of you already know because of Facebook, but I thought that I would share the news with the rest of you. My husband and I are expecting our third child in December. I am excited. I will definitely be checking in to try and keep up with everyone. I have missed you guys. And I will definitely need some advice from ya'll after the baby arrives on how to handle the weight loss with breastfeeding. I have already gained 22lbs and I am only halfway. I am trying to watch the weight but it is so hard to do anything when you are so nauseated. I think it is starting to go away but I still have my days. I hope that everyone is doing great and staying on track. I will try and make it a habit again about checking in with you guys. You are all such great support. Congratulations.That is very exciting news. Clanori 07-13-2009, 09:44 AM Good morning.Hope everyone is doing well.I have been away for a while.Alotr of emotional stuff going on.It has been tough staying OP with the kids being on Summer break.I have gained 3 pounds and I feel like my stomach is constantly bloated from eating all theses random starches.Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get rid of sugar cravings?I think you can use B-6 or B-12 but I can't remember.I am going to try and get OP today so wish me luck.One step at a time is what I am thinking.On a good note I have been exercising at least 3 times a week varying it between yoga and cardio.I want to start adding some weight lifting in soon to try and tone things up.
