Diet is defined as a prescribed selection of foods, the usual food and drink consumed by a person or animal, or the act of restricting food intake (1). That last definition casts a negative light on dieting and for that reason, as a dietitian, I try to avoid the term – even if it is a part of my professional title. However, diet is a common and recognizable word, so it constantly creeps into conversations, wanted or not.
Trendy diets have swept our nation for years. When entering diet into a search engine, one link lists 82 recent diets, none of which I recommend (2). No wonder the term diet is associated with unsustainable, unsatisfying eating patterns that lead to temporary weight loss, often followed by a surge in weight gain as the confused and restricted dieter declares, "enough!"
As a dietitian practicing a vegetable-based, high nutrient diet, who am I to talk about restrictive diets? I prescribe specific food regimens for sick or struggling individuals, and certainly it makes sense to identify diet as the usual food and drink consumed. But if a diet is not embraced by the dieter none of the technicalities matter! Nutritional choices don't just reflect diet; they reveal a way of living. Until our daily food choices portray an overall healthy lifestyle, temporary attempts to dabble in the latest fad diet will fail.
When I initially transformed my eating patterns, from the Standard American Diet (SAD), many people felt sorry for me while others thought I was extreme. I did not hesitate to make the changes. I believed in the potential of excellent nutrition to aid my body's self-healing capabilities to restore my health – and I eventually saw major improvements.
I started to look better, feel better, think better, and live better in addition to many other tremendous benefits. Aside from the obvious health rewards of reduced body weight, lowered cholesterol, blood pressure and triglyceride levels, choosing food based on nutrition enhances disease maintenance, reversal, and prevention while also sparing the environment and living creatures.
So, when people say things like, "I know your diet is strict/limited," or, "what DO you eat?," I think to myself, 'limited? I enjoy eating quality food – and more than I ever have!' I contemplate how much I appreciate high-nutrient fruits and vegetables in all of their glorious colors and flavors. About how I love discovering a new enticing recipe to try, how I find preparing ingredients therapeutic, and how I delight in savoring the combination of tastes, textures, and nutrients as they burst with flavor in my mouth.
Of course, removing highly sweetened, processed and commercialized foods, salt, animal products (read: saturated fat and cholesterol) has other benefits. I savor knowing that our food is helping and not harming our bodies. I've learned that we can experience the refreshment of actually preparing real food – not just unwrapping pre-packaged imitations. And after relishing a multi-course meal, I know we don't have to feel guilty or gluttonous – we can feel simply satisfied.
So, instead of feeling bogged down by constant hunger or withdrawal from adulterated food and beverages, I experience a deep satisfaction from the foods I choose to eat. I feel healthier from the inside out, which liberates me from poor health, a reliance on prescription drugs, medical burdens, food dilemmas, weight problems, boring meals, and a dependence on packaged foods. My so-called "diet" in all of its colorful variation and deliciousness is what I call the spice-of-life!

"Winter Fire...WOW!"
The book was really good but the narrator was horrible.
I have tremendously enjoyed Ms Lowell's 'Only' series and would highly recommend the books to all who enjoy a bit of erotica with a good story line.
The narrator really annoyed me. I had to rewind many times to make sense of what she was saying.
"Want to get to know a druid?"
This book is part of a series that I count among my most favorite reads.
The whole series to-date is very memorable because of the very clever dialogue. I love books that have the ability to make you travel with its characters as they journey through the storyline.
I just can't imagine anyone other than Luke Daniels narrating this series. I have completely fallen for Oberon, the Irish wolfhound, and his very witty telepathic dialogue. Luke Daniels is so responsible for my loving this series.
If you like well written books with very intelligent and witty dialogue between characters, and if you like that a reader is so good that he actually draws you into the action, Then...The Iron Druid Chronicles series are the books for you.
"I am hooked! I love Virgin River and it's people."
What a place!
Jack Sheridan is my guy. He is what every woman wants in a man. He is so comfortable with who he is that he is not afraid to show compassion. He knows how to 'surrender' to life's situations and I love how he learns to love his woman.
I have so many audible books narrated by Therese Plummer (is she not also Savannah Richards?). I find her voice so comforting and I like that she makes each character's voice distinctive. Her narration played a big part in my decision to purchase all of the books in the Virgin River series.
There were parts where I laughed and parts where I cried.
If you like stories that make you root for many of its characters and that make you feel good, then the Virgin River serie is for you.
"Better Than I Know Myself"
This is my first book review. Not because this is the best book I have ever read, but this is my first opportunity to express my opinion.
I loved this book. It is so well written. I absolutely loved the voice of the reader. I look forward to the next book by these two authors.

Oats are sweet, earthy-flavored grains. They are low in fat and cholesterol free. They are also easily digestible and provide a great source of protein.
Oats have almost no gluten so flour made from oats needs to be mixed with white or whole wheat flour for yeast breads. The more oats you use, the denser and more crumbly your bread will be.
Make Your Own Oat Flour
Oat flour is ground from the endosperm. Make your own oat flour by processing 1 1/4 cups rolled oats in a food processor until finely textured. This will yield 1 cup. The flour will be a little coarser than commercial oat flour but will still work in bread recipes.
Enjoy some of these recipes or feel free to submit your Oatmeal Bread Recipes.
|Caraway Oat Bran Bread - Combining caraway seeds and oat bran may seem unusual, but this recipe (from Rod in Dallas), creates a very pleasing rye bread substitute.
|Cinnamon Raisin Bread with Oatmeal and Sprouted Wheat - Oatmeal with cinnamon and raisins is delicious in and of itself... add the combination to bread and throw in some sprouted wheat flour and you've got yourself a pretty awesome treat.
|Cranberry Oatmeal Pumpkin Bread - This cranberry and pumpkin bread is made with the Oatmeal Pumpkin Bread dough.
|French Toast with KAMUT, Oatmeal Date Bread - This KAMUT, Oatmeal and Date Bread makes delicious French Toast.
|Einkorn Oatmeal Bread - This bread can be made completely in the bread machine or use the dough setting to prepare the dough, then bake it in a conventional oven.
|Honey Graham Oatmeal Bread - This Honey Graham Oatmeal Bread is a delicious and homey bread made with white bread flour, graham flour and old-fashioned oats.
|Maple Oatmeal Bread - This Maple Oatmeal loaf is very fluffy and has a delicious and light sweetness due to the maple syrup.
|3,2,1 Oat Bran Bread - This 3-to-1 basic oat bran bread recipe (from Rod in Dallas) minimizes the difficulty in working with a larger quantity of oat bran, which can easily become too dense to knead.
|Oat Bran Cocobana Bread - This yeast bread recipe (from Rod in Dallas) was inspired by Mexican sweet breads (noticeable yet mild flavor and gentle sweetness) but offers the familiar texture and nutrition of oat bran with subtle coconut chewiness and mild banana flavor.
|Oat Bran and Flax Bread - This recipe, submitted by Rod in Dallas, is an updated version of a popular Oat Bran Health Bread which was described on one site as "nutty, but not heavy like some multigrain bread" - this description still applies!
|Old Fashioned Oatmeal Bread Recipe - This is a very simple and delicious oatmeal bread recipe that you can make in your bread machine. It is one of the first breads I ever made in the bread machine and it's still one of our favorites.
Oatmeal Breakfast Bread - This is a delicious bread for breakfast or a mid-morning snack. The cinnamon and maple syrup give it a unique flavor and the nuts and raisins add crunchiness and texture.
|Oatmeal Pumpkin Bread - This delicious Oatmeal Pumpkin Bread is made using the Artisan Bread in Five Minutes method.
|Seeded Oat Bread - I had some oat flour that I wanted to experiment with so I adapted the Seeded Oat Bread recipe from Healthy Bread in Five Minutes to include rolled oats as well as oat flour.
|Whole Wheat Oatmeal Waffles - The combination of oatmeal and whole wheat makes these waffles very nutritious. They taste especially good topped with fresh berries and a drizzle of maple syrup.

Last night was one of the best music nights of my life.
It started off with a day at the Grammy Museum checking out an exhibit on my favorite rapper of all time, Tupac. Then afterward, an all-star Grammy salute to Stevie Wonder at the Nokia Theater. And that all-star showcase was phenomenal. But before I get to that, I want to tell you how this all came about.
I always sign up to be a seatfiller for great Hollywood events and I so happen to get one for this Stevie Wonder tribute show (which airs next Monday on CBS). So since I will be heading to Nokia Theater that day, I decided to go check out the Grammy Museum. I have been there before but that was over a year ago and there was a new Tupac exhibit there. So me and my friend met up and checked it out. It was a small little wing of the museum but it was impressive.

Cycling Games now available in Spanish
Fun cycle training for Spanish-speaking children. The Danish Cyclists' Federations succesful concept "Cycling Games" is now also available in a Spanish booklet.
Even though the Danish Municipality of Middelfart is small (app. 36,500 inhabitants), ambitions are high. The drawing up of a cycling plan has had great results, and the municipality now invests more money in bicycling than ever before.
Or are they just waiting to get a driver's license? How do you activate young people to get involved in cycling? The Danish Municipality of Svendborg and CED member, COWI, decided to study this question by organizing a project at Svendborg High School.
In 2009, pressed by the Danish Cyclists' Federation, a majority in the Danish Parliament set aside one billion DKK (app. 135 million Euro) in a national Cycling Fund. Now the money has been spent on 388 cycling projects with splendid results. Yet, a new five-year Cycling Fund does not seem to be underway.
Lower speed limits mean less accidents and casualties. Still, Danish municipalities have struggled to lower speed limits to 30 and 40 km/h. But now it looks like the wind is changing. The Danish Parliament has changed their tune, and results from a pilot project support the case for lower speed limits.
After an internship with Gehl Architects, two students from the University of Washington in the U.S. have produced a handbook on strategies for making better urban spaces for citizens of all ages based on their experiences with the Gehl approach and the Danish bicycle culture.
Copenhagen is European Green Capital 2014. On this occasion, the European Commission's Green Capital Award Ceremony is held at The Black Diamond in Copenhagen on June 24th.
A new report from the University of Copenhagen and the Technical University of Denmark has been published. The report is on urban design's effect on people's cycling habits, and the results indicate that the establishment of major commercial shopping centers outside the cities weakens cycling.
Just before summer 2013, a new Cycling Action Plan was approved by the Aalborg technical committee. The action plan is the third of its kind (following similar plans in 2005 and 2009).
"Collection of Cycle Concepts 2012″ contains the most recent Danish bicycle knowhow on everything from infrastructure and road to campaigns and life style and updates the field since the publication of the first edition of "Collection of Cycle Concepts" from 2000.

She is one of the true artists of our new Western dharma (spiritual movement). – Wes Nisker, Buddhist meditation teacher, author, radio commentator and performer. His bestselling books include Essential Crazy Wisdom; The Big Bang, The Buddha, and the Baby Boom; and Buddha's Nature. He is also the founder and co-editor of the Buddhist journal "Inquiring Mind."

It is wonderful to listen to these songs and to be reminded of the best of human qualities. – Gil Fronsdal, guiding teacher of the Insight Meditation Center (IMC) of Redwood City, California

The Space
This beautiful 2bd/2.5bath 2 story condo (+ 3rd story roof deck) is located in the Lower Pacific Heights neighborhood of San Francisco. The private residence comes complete with roof deck & grill for outdoor fun. Includes WiFi, washer/dryer, street parking (garage parking available, please inquire).
Guests can expect to feel right at home in this luxurious layout. Great for 2 couples looking for a fun weekend getaway in the city. The neighborhood has plenty of entertainment/shopping/dining to keep you busy, however the condo itself is quiet & private (being a back unit off of the main street).
The condo is walking distance (about 3 blocks) from the famous Fillmore street filled with great shopping and even better restaurants. Fillmore street has a wide variety of retail shops; everything from Marc Jacobs & Ralph Lauren to Crossroads (the trendiest consignment shop in SF). The condo is also located walking distance to both the Kabuki theater in Japan Town and the Vogue Theater on a beautiful and bustling section of Sacramento Street. Also, just 3 blocks from Alta Plaza, which is a beautiful Park overlooking the city with tennis and basketball courts and a wonderful playground for kids. The condo is central to all of the great SF attractions: we're located less than 2 miles from the Marina & Union Square, and less than 3 miles from Fisherman's wharf, the Mission & the Financial District.
Cabs are extremely accessible in this area (we always recommend the Taxi Magic app), but if you prefer public transit all of the major bus lines stop within a block or two. We recommend (website hidden) or the HopStop app when planning to use public transportation around the city, makes it so easy!
Our place is unique for it's vibrant location, new construction, and spacious (for SF) layout.
Guest Access
WiFi, Apple TV and Cable with every channel, Roof-deck/Grill, Parking Garage, etc...
Interaction with Guests
Our guests will have our mobile numbers and we will be fully accessible, for questions, recommendations or to handle any issues.
The Neighborhood
Great location, walking distance to so many great attractions.
Getting around
Several bus lines within a couple blocks.
We take pride in our home & decor, we would expect any guests to respect our space as if it were their own. For example: using coasters on the nice tables/wooden surfaces, no smoking inside the house, keeping the common entrances locked & secure out of respect for the other tenants (front door/garage door), and being respectful of the neighbors (2 other units in the building, very cool couples but they do have small children).
Our guests are more than welcome to use the roof deck to smoke as long as it's left clean upon your departure.
We will provide our guests with ample closet/drawer space, but we do expect to return to our place as we left it. We have stocked the bathrooms with sample toiletries for your convenience, feel free to help yourself.
The reservation was canceled 8 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
The place is Great and comfortable , we were so happy to status Here. Its very easy to go anywhere you want by bus
Great place to rent. Tori was very accommodating and always available. Had everything we needed. Great location too. Quick Uber ride down to Fisherman's Wharf, we even walked it a couple times as we explores San Francisco.
Neat shops and restaurants 3 blocks away on Fillmore. Very safe and quiet. Loved the decor also.
Tori and Jake are both great, and friendly people! They could not have made us feel more welcome in their home.
The parking space was a great bonus and allowed us to have a rental car available to us during the trip which was extremely convenient.
The unit itself was absolutely beautiful and conveniently located!
What a wonderful place to stay! My family and I enjoyed every minute of our 4 day San Fran trip. What made it extra special was coming home every night to Tori and Jake's homely apartment.
Jake was extremely helpful whilst we were arriving, showing us around. They even left us a bottle of wine, such a lovely touch. The Condo is in a great location, just a few blocks from Fillmore Street, with great restaurants, shops and bars. With the added bonus of that roof top, what a view!
Thanks again for a wonderful stay, we hope to return soon.
Emily, Nilesh, Allister and Caroline.
Amazing place - beautiful. Every aspect of the home was awesome. It had great decor, comfortable furniture, indeed every channel/show you could imagine, a sweet roof deck with a beautiful view, ample parking space and the hosts Tori and Jake made themselves readily available to answer any and all questions. Would highly recommend staying here.
Tori and Jake were great hosts. Lovely, clean home. The rooftop deck is priceless. Thanks for a wonderful stay!
I'm from southern California, my husband is from Boston, & we love to travel!

The company said its only domestic plant for mobile phones will halt operations in October. Toshiba's revenue for mobile phone business nearly halved to 140 billion yen ($1.5 billion) in the fiscal year ended March 2009.
"Consumers are reluctant to buy new mobile phone handsets amid an economic downturn. The Japanese mobile phone market was really hit hard by the ongoing economic slump," Toshiba spokeswoman Yuko Sugahara said.
Toshiba's global shipments of mobile phones plunged to 3 million units in the last fiscal year from 6 million units the previous year. Toshiba said most of its cellphones were sold in Japan.
The company said it will continue to make cellphones at its plant in the eastern Chinese city of
Toshiba said the move to end Japanese mobile phone production will not result in job losses as workers will be assigned to different jobs.
Hit by sinking global demand, Toshiba's net loss swelled to a record 343.6 billion yen for the fiscal year to March, compared with a net profit of 127.4 billion yen in the previous year.
It was Toshiba's biggest loss ever and its first annual net loss in seven years.
Toshiba's annual sales dropped 13% to 6.65 trillion yen due to faltering business in semiconductors as well as digital equipment and home electronics.
Toshiba said its mobile phone business only accounts for 3% of its total operations.
Shares of Toshiba fell 1.9% Wednesday to close at 355 yen.

Martini party
It is my hubby's birthday next weekend and I am having a martini party for him. There will be about 12 people coming and since most of them don't drink martinis, we are making up cards with recipes on them for "fun" martinis. We will do choc. raspberry ones, tropical sunset, etc.
I need ideas for decorations and snacks. Also, would it be "cheap" to have the plastic glasses or do I have to spring for the glass ones? I just don't know where I would store 12 glass martini glasses.
Any help would be most appreciated! TIA
Buy 12 cheap but glass martini glasses.....and tie a ribbon with a name tag on each one and call them favors for your guests if you don't want to store them.
Be sure to have the proper "olives" for your fancy 'tinis...like whole raspberries on a tooth pick and a twist of lemon rind and orange rind...If you are making apple-tinis have wedges of granny smith apples, coffee beans are good in chocolate 'tinis as are hazlenuts.
Snacks....apple wedges with brie, jalapeno jelly over cream cheese. If you want recipes for hors d'ouvres, run over to the recipe exchange and post a request there.
Linda C
A couple of years ago, as an auction item at my son's school, we hosted a Martini Party. It was such fun! We had a menu of 15 martini's. Most martinis can be made with the same ingrediants. We named the martini's after the people that hosted the party. Make a run to your local bookstore and get a martini book. There are many ideas for you to choose from.
For decorations we had the huge glass martini shaped glasses filled with floating flowers or candles. For the cocktail napkins, paper napkins with an olive on them, found at a closeout party supply store.
I would opt for the martini glasses in glass. My experience with the plastic ones are that the bottom falls off and then your guest can't put their glass down because of instability.
Food-Finger foods and sandwiches.
For some reason figs,fruit and cheese went over very well. Stuffed bread bowls with dip.
At one party I went to....they had a Martini bar...and a mashed potato bar. Mashed potatoes with different toppings served in martini glasses....It was at a hotel...so the number of glasses needed wasn't a problem!

Healthy large intestine, coloured double contrast barium enema X-ray. The large intestine (colon, red) is the final part of the digestive system. It is divided into four sections the ascending (left of centre), transverse (centre), descending (right of centre) and sigmoid colon (at lower centre). It receives digested food from the small intestine (not seen), which joins it at lower left. The colon absorbs water from the digested food which arrives in a liquid form.

Science Photo Library was founded in 1981 by Michael Marten, one of the authors of "Worlds Within Worlds", a book exploring different ways to observe the universe - from electron micrographs, to images of earthrise taken from the Apollo spacecraft.

Since then, Science Photo Library has continued to work alongside world acclaimed photographers and the leading science and medical experts to provide a central source of the best science and specialist imagery available. Although the collection started with scientific images, it has grown to encompass all aspects of science and their impact on everyday life.

This rug is not really soft or plush. I guess I shouldn't have expected too much given the price, but since I usually have great luck with stuff on Overstock, this one turned out to be a disappointment. The color is fine, I'd say a winter white, but its rather thin and the weave is kind of skimpy. Not super soft on your feet. I saw a rug at a local store which was definitely thick and plush, the softest thing I'd ever felt, but I had already ordered this one, it hadn't arrived yet. Since its kind of a pain to return a rug, I am keeping it and figure that once the cats have a few hairballs on it, I won't feel bad tossing it due to the price, and getting the one I really love at the store, which is only $100 more... You get what you pay for sometimes!
This is a piece of shag rug that you can purchase at a local store for half the price. I opened the packaging and it started to shed instantly. It is NOT plush and the color was not what I envisioned. It is like a cheap carpet piec e the lining is very thin and the fibers fall apart easily. I have to sweep off the excess fibers everytime I walk on it. Buy at your own risk...
I had purchased this rug, and when I received it, I was so bummed! I was expecting something much thicker, soft, and plush. The fibers were coarse and stringy looking. I never unrolled it, but the color is nice. It'd be a good rug for a room that's hardly ever used.
I ordered the Alexa My Soft and Plush Multi Shag Rug (8' x 10') in October, 2010. I received my recently placed order today for the 5'x8' version and it is a completely different rug - in color, quality and backing. It is being returned and KUDOS to Overstock for their assistance in the process.
This rug is over priced for what it is. The quality of the rug was much less than I expected. Had I known how cheaply it is made, I would not have purchased it.
My husband and I purchased this rug for our baby's room. It is super soft and cozy (and even more so with a rug pad underneath). It vacuums well and stays together (NO little pieces come loose from the rug- it is made very well). We LOVE the color. It is a soft, powdery blue and is very pleasing to the eye. We were thrilled with how quickly it arrived (within a week of ordering). We have used Overstock.com to purchase a few of our home items, and we highly recommend their products.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Beautiful color- matched the website picture color
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Excellent quality, vacuums well, very soft
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Very accurate
This rug came in quickly- I guess that's the only plus. It is multi-colored and way off from the 'Gold' color that I chose. Not very soft or cushiony and shedding like crazy. Returning tomorrow.
For the money, you will not find a better white shag rug than this. Believe me, I've looked. It's soft, plush, so far it's durable, doesn't shed too much and it looks great. I couldn't be happier.
Nice rug. Not quite as tight of a shag as I expected, so not as plush, but still a nice addition to the room. Very soft to the touch.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? As described
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Good
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? As described
My rug is thick, comfortable, and does not shed but it does slide on hard wood floors, so you may need to order a pad as well. The color is a clean white and goes elegantly with our furniture. If you are looking for a shag rug you will not be disappointed especially at this price.
rug was great find for the price. I bought it for my daughters nursery and i love it
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? the pink was not as bright as I hoped but its pretty
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. rug was decent quality
The overall quality of the rug was what I expected. It was plush enough. However, it smelled very dank/damp upon arrival and the color was terrible and did not look anything like the thyme in the photo. It was much more of a yellow green, pea colored. The photo definitely looked darker and more olive.
Do not buy this rug. I bought it for my son's nursery, and it feels cheap and crunchy and plasticky. The quality is awful. I sent it back immediately... And I'm actually a little peeved that I had to pay for return shipping when the description if this rug was so inaccurate.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Ivory (a nice color, actually)
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Very poor. The rug feels cheap and plasticky.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Inaccurate. This rug shouldn't be described as soft or plush. It feels terrible under your feet.
I ordered the 5x8 rug and was afraid that when it arrived it would not be the correct color. I wasn't sure what I would do with it if I couldn't use it in my sun room. When it arrived I was thrilled. The color was exactly as it showed on the computer. I immediately ordered the larger size so that I could use that in the sun room and the smaller under the breakfast table. The rugs made the biggest difference and my grandchildren prefer sitting on them rather than in a chair.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? beautifully
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. well made
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? perfect
The Rug is nice overall and looks great in my living room but it sheds A LOT!! And its not as soft and plush as described. I've only had it for a few weeks and if it keeps shedding the way it has, there will be no shag on my shag rug!
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? Yes
- How is the quality of the product? Low
- Did the description onsite accurately describe the product? Not Really
Exacly what I expected.....good quality. Perfectly suitable to the area it was purchased for.
After reading all the reviews we purchased the rug. For about a week my husband went on and on about how much he hated it, its sorta thin, and the quality is not cozy at all. I really wasn't at all happy either, so it will be returned despite the hassle involved in returning something so big, its really that bad. I would not recommend this unless you really don't care for a thin bad quality rug. Guess to get something nice this price is too good to be true as I would have guessed.
Our new Shag Rug is exceptionally well made and very beautiful! It is nice and thick, plus the color is perfect for our décor. It is plush and has such a cozy warmth about it, and we really enjoy walking on it, especially after awakening each morning and enjoying the nice shaggy feeling when our feet touches our rug.
Rugs are more difficult to buy than you would think. Retail stores carry very limited selections because of inventory costs and have limited styles for similar reasons. Buying online seems risky too though. What if it looks really nice online . . . and then feels like a burlap sack when I put it on my floor? I am very pleased with the look, comfort and value of this nuLoom plush rug. My kids can lay on it to watch tv and it cleans up easily.
Fits well in the small bedroom daughter loves the feel on her feet.

Why a static economy may actually be good for us
Jeff Rubin says he believes despite the best efforts by government central banks or fiscal policies, expensive oil is going to stymie economic growth.
In the new book by the former chief economist with CIBC Capital Markets, The End of Growth, Rubin argues economic growth is unsustainable if energy prices stay as high as they are.

"Zero interest rates and huge budget deficits are no substitute for cheap oil," he said in Winnipeg Wednesday.
Rubin said oil prices have had their fingerprints on every recession in the last 40 years and economic management has essentially been taken out of the hands of central bankers and finance departments.
"But it's important not to do the wrong things," he said. "The governor of the Bank of Canada worries about a housing bubble and people carrying too much debt, but what does he expect people to do when money is virtually free. And huge deficits and yesterday's bailout is today's cutbacks."
Thomas Mulcair, leader of the federal NDP, has already shaken the cage about how Canada's robust petrodollar is screwing things up in the manufacturing heartland.
Rubin argues in Canada, the fault lines are being drawn not between east and west or between English and French, but between provinces with oil resources and those without.
"It has already made common cause between Ontario and Quebec and Alberta and Newfoundland," he said.
"As the political rhetoric heats up in the coming months there is no moral high ground here. It is only the capriciousness of nature that determines which side of the debate you're on... Each premier will be reading from scripts written by natural resource endowments."
Price dynamics are playing havoc with resource developments. In Manitoba, development of mega hydro dams to sell power to the United States is getting gummed up by cheap natural gas that can be used to fire generating stations south of the border.
But not only that, Rubin's thesis is all about the fact power consumption patterns are going to have to change.
"I think we are going to find that many of these projections are going to need to be recalibrated," he said.
"Maybe we don't need to exploit resources as rapidly as we have because maybe the markets we are sending the resources to are not growing at the pace they had."
That's clearly a hard sell in resource provinces that need the jobs and revenue that come with resource developments.
"But all provinces needs to reconsider growth assumptions behind megaprojects and see if they are robust in today's world of triple-digit oil prices with recession knocking at the front door of many economies."
As a macro economist with impressive credentials -- Rubin held the top job at CIBC for 20 years -- the arguments in The End of Growth and his predecessor book, Why Your World is About to Get a Whole Lot Smaller, are superbly laid out.
The suggestions he makes about how we will be able to survive such a shift in the fundamentals of how economies perform are refreshing.
Not only will we be able to adapt, he said, but a static or slow-growth global economy may be really good for us.
For one thing, during recessions carbon emissions decline.
"I'll take slow economic growth over a thousand Kyoto agreements," he said.
And as an economist he knows price determines consumption patterns.
He uses the example of Denmark where electricity costs 30 cents a kilowatt hour, versus five or six cents here. There's a huge surtax on autos and energy consumption is declining.
"People in Copenhagen use a third less power than people (here)," he said. "I daresay Manitoba could reduce carbon emission without erecting a single wind turbine if you charge as (much as) Denmark for your hydro."
