How fuel efficient is your home?
In his state of the union speech, President Barack Obama made a plea for making America's homes less wasteful and more energy-efficient.
But how do we measure each home's energy use?
Steve Baden is leading an effort by a nonprofit group headquartered in Oceanside to provide a meaningful yard stick.
"It's designed to make it easier for a consumer to compare homes -- It's an energy use score," said Baden, describing the Home Energy Rating System -- or HERS -- score. "The lower the score the better -- like golf."
More than 1.1 million homes now carry a HERS score, which is gaining acceptance as a standard among government agencies, utilities, mortgage lenders and everyday home buyers.
Baden spent more than two decades administering home energy programs for the state of Alaska in one of the harshest climates on earth.
His departure in 1995 prompted a settlement with state officials who had accused Baden of violating post-employment restrictions by accepting a job from a energy-related non-profit.
Since then, Baden has brought together energy, housing and finance experts to work toward making energy efficiency a standard feature in the nation' s housing market.
Q: How did energy ratings first grab your attention?
A: It came from working with the mortgage industry. They said there was a need for an "MPG" sticker for homes, the same way there is for cars. That way a lender or a consumer could tell the relative energy efficiency of the home they were shopping for -- and provide information on energy costs that could then be factored into the mortgage loan.
Q: How widespread is use of home energy ratings?
It's being used more and more. In 2012, 40 percent of all new homes sold in the United States were issued what we call the HERS index score.
'HERS' score
The Home Energy Rating System is a score for energy use that is designed to make it easier for consumers to compare homes. It's often compared to the EPA fuel efficiency stickers seen at new car dealerships -- only for houses. The lower the index score, the more energy efficient a home is.
A new home that conforms to minimum current efficiency standards typically scores 100. By comparison, a home with a score of 70 should consumer only 70 percent as much energy.
The score is recognized by the Department of Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency, and it is gaining influence among home builders and mortgage lenders. The Oceanside-based nonprofit Residential Energy Services Network oversees the training of independent contractors to rate homes fairly and consistently. RESNET also helps foster market demand for home energy ratings.
Q: When does the energy score come into play?
A: One of the things we're asking of consumers is to know your score when you're shopping for a home, so that you can tell the relative efficiency from one home to the other. Why is this important? Government-sponsored mortgage lender Fannie Mae has found that the cost of heating, cooling and hot water for a home is the highest cost of home ownership outside the mortgage loan.

Campuses are trying to enhance accessibility while maintaining quality
Online education is anything but new to college campuses. Students have been able to take classes and even full courses entirely online for years.
But thanks in part to a push by Gov. Jerry Brown to have California's public colleges and universities use technology to expand their reach and operate more efficiently, a slew of new initiatives are being launched. The governor earmarked millions of dollars in funding for online course expansion for all higher-education sectors in his proposed state budget.
For its part, the 23-campus California State University system and its individual campuses, including San Diego State University and Cal State San Marcos, are pursuing several online paths to help students avoid enrollment bottlenecks and finish their degrees more quickly.
Part of the motivation is making sure precious state investments in education don't go to waste. Thousands of students leave school every year without finishing degree programs because of overcrowded classes as well as changing life circumstances.
Even as online education continues to grow, those in the trenches say it is important to make sure quality doesn't erode under the effort to make college more accessible and efficient. A recent bill introduced by state legislators would allow private companies to provide up to 50 of the highest demand classes to public college and university students for credit. It has prompted widespread concern among faculty leaders who are uncomfortable giving up oversight of online courses.
Warren Ashley, director of the center for mediated instruction and distance learning at Cal State University Dominguez Hills, said the best programs are those developed by faculty who want to put their courses online. He and others worry that the emphasis on cost savings might lead some public education programs to become a "Costco of education" that present information but fail to provide the interactive learning environment he called "an essential part of education."
"You take one of this and one of those and one of those and by the time you are at the end of the aisle, you have a degree," Ashley said. "It would be a degree — you can use it to get advanced in your career or get promoted. But you shouldn't confuse it with an education."
Lawmakers say the schools and faculty would play a key role in shaping the programs.
Here are three paths that CSU online education is taking:
Cal State Online
Online courses have mainly been a campus-by-campus effort but a more centralized approach from the CSU system is being pursued. Cal State Online initially will focus on helping students who have hit roadblocks in their studies complete their degrees. A half-dozen online degrees are expected to be offered under the program by the fall.
CSU is partnering with Pearson eCollege for the initiative, with the vendor providing marketing and technical support. While traditional tuition fees are subsidized by the state, Cal State Online programs are run under a self-support model, which means there is no state subsidy and students pay the full cost of instruction.

1* Chi Cubs (2:20 ET): Though I had an outstanding Thursday overall, the Cubs still made me look foolish as they finished a sweep of the Mets. I was on the wrong side in every game of the series as the Cubs finish the year a perfect 7-0 vs. NY. (Remember still up for the week). Friday afternoon finds me recommending the Cubbies in an "about face."
Actually, it was nothing against the Cubs as to why I continued to play against them throughout the week. But rather, the Mets were at home and had revenge for a four-game sweep that took place in Wrigley Field earlier this year. Chicago has had its issues offensively of late, but they did bust loose for six runs yday. Of course those offensive issues didn't matter when you give up all of one run in the entire series.
Pitching today for the Cubs will be Jason Hammel, who somehow is just 1-0 in six home starts despite a 2.20 ERA and 0.927 WHIP. For the second time in three starts, he's coming off an outing where he lasted just four innings. But both were on the road. In between was a brilliant outing where he allowed just two hits in 7+ scoreless innings here at Wrigley. His counterpart, Tom Koehler of the Marlins, has a 6.45 ERA and 1.593 WHIP on the road this season. Miami just did the Cubs a favor by sweeping the Giants (Wild Card race), but their run ends here. 1* Chi Cubs

Where's Waldo?Please, can you tell me which one is the bride?
Panty DropperPlease tell me this isn't becoming a trend? I commend the girls who shielded their faces -- I think they knew this photo would be all over the internet, it was just a matter of time.
Match DisasterThis photo gives a whole new meaning to the

David Ortiz is off to the best start of his career with the Boston Red Sox. A notoriously slow starter in April, Big Papi is hitting .381 with 17 RBI and four home runs through only 16 games. He missed the first 15 games of the season because of an Achilles' injury that stemmed back to last July, but the 37-year-old returned without missing a beat. Since Ortiz's hot start in 2013 is unusual for a player his age who normally comes crawling out of the gate, Dan Shaughnessy of the Boston Globe decided he would be the first one to bring up the steroid talk — despite the fact that Ortiz has only appeared in 16 games. Hitting is not this easy. Athletes do not get better as they mature into their late 30s. Baseball has been peppered with performance-enhancing drugs for the last 20 years. The cheaters are always ahead of the testers. A number of players from the Dominican Republic have tested positive for steroids. Injuries to the Achilles' tendon are consistent with steroid use. It is not natural for a guy to hit .426 out of the gate without the benefit of any spring training. Of course, Shaughnessy pointed to the fact that Ortiz's name appeared on a list of players who tested positive back in 2003. That being said, he has not failed a drug test in the last 10 years. If you think Ortiz is using performance-enhancing drugs, you must think either Major League Baseball is covering for him or he has found a way to cheat the system. It should be noted that Shaughnessy is a notorious pessimist. It has basically become part of his job description. He was one of the most vocal people in counting the Red Sox out before their miraculous comeback against the New York Yankees in 2004, and it has been thrown in his face ever since. That doesn't mean his inferences don't bother Ortiz. "Where are you trying to go with this?" Ortiz asked Shaughnessy. "That's my question. If you work hard, you're not supposed to get better?" Shaughnessy then pointed out that he could touch the rim when he played basketball in high school but isn't out there throwing down dunks today. Shaughnessy also went to high school over 40 years ago. Ortiz was 30 seven years ago. "Basketball is not the same," Ortiz replied. "I don't forget about hitting the damn fastball. I go up (to the weight room) and I bench press 400 pounds. Every other day. If I don't do it, I'm not going to feel as strong as I am. "I don't like to be talking about this steroid thing because people get the wrong idea. I just don't want no misunderstanding 'cause I got no time for this [expletive] right now." Ortiz has not forgotten how to hit a baseball just as Shaughnessy has not lost his knack for ruffling feathers. Perhaps that is a better comparison at this stage in their careers. Shaughnessy is once again simply looking for attention by writing something with shock value. During an interview with ESPN's Pedro Gomez before Wednesday night's game against the Minnesota Twins, Ortiz said he is "hurt" by the accusations. "I have bad Aprils [and] they bury me, or some reporter buries me because of that," he said. "I have a good April [and] it's bad, too. You're going to make me look like that just because I'm hitting good through 15 games?. I mean, it makes no sense." We know Ortiz had a lame excuse for his name appearing on the 2003 banned substances list, but that doesn't mean he is taking steroids now. Neither does a solid start to the 2013 season. If Ortiz falls into a massive slump and hits .200 for the rest of the season, Shaughnessy will be first in line to call him a washed-up superstar who simply doesn't have it anymore. Welcome to Boston.
Pay no attention to your detractors. The same people had you all washed up last year. We love you Big Poppy!
David Ortiz is a hads been he don't have it anymore boston needs to be smart and trade him he getting to old also a few other players they need to trade off thats stinks maybe the manger too
Go Papi Go!! Go Papi Go!! David Ortiz is and always will be one of the great hitters and characters in baseball and we are proud he is a Bosox. Even at 37 he is one of the best hitters in the league. 15 games is not the barometer let's see what he does over 50 games. My guess is he will have a lot of HR's & RBI's and more power to him!!!
I guess we will have to investigate the year Ted Williams's average after 132 ball games was .388. I'm sure Mr. Dan Shaughnessy has some kind of reasoning for that stat. Oh by the way Ted was 39 years old when he hit for that average.
Is it any wonder the Boston Globe is broke and up for sale with morons like Shaughnessy writing for them. Remember 2004 Dan?
I used to buy the Globe because of its sports section and certainly not because of its politics. But it got worse when Ray Fitzgerald and Harold Kaese passed on. Hell, Peter Gammons was its baseball guru. Still has Kevin DuPont though.
Dan's a bit of a bomb-thrower although every publication has its polemicist in order to create a buzz.
Now I read its op-eds just to elevate my low blood pressure and dream about the scribes of old.
There's a lot die hard Red Sox fans out there who don't like anyone putting their ball players down. But in all honest - what if this was REALLY true about David Ortiz - that the team is covering this up. I simply do not trust anyone in the MLB.
Everyone is playing dirty. I'm sorry but I do believe Ortiz is on the juice. To be gone for a long while in Dominican Republic
then all of a sudden batting 500. That's to real to be true. To all the fans hate whatever is said but in reality if the Red Sox organization is covering this up then the matter will get worse down the road. By Bud Selig request they should give Ortiz an UNEXPECTED steroid test then lets see what the evidence shows. The MLB needs to get proof and evidence on Ortiz on this UNEXPECTED steroid test. A lot of the fans would be totally shock if this was TRUE.
PS. ALL Replies won't be reply back.
Don't worry Papi, Their only Sportswriters!
Papi, don't listen to that jerk, he's been a jerk since day one and he will always will be a jerk!!! You are my hero!!! Don't let the negative people get you down!!!
To all the idiots defending him: You know he was in the mitchell report for testing positive in 2004??? Right??? You realize that right??? But he is the only one at his age still able to hit like that naturally? Come on...If it smells like a rat and looks like a rat..I don't understand the need to defend him. EVERYONE CHEATS....it's who get's caught and who doesn't
He is a self-promoting whiner and the king of the "me first" spoiled athletes. Of course he is juicing. Now he plays the race/ethnicity card. Can't wait for the Red Sox to move on from this bum.

Another great review PD. I really can't wait to get this guy, more space mutants is always a good thing. Maybe I'll have him square off against the new NECA Jungle Predator I just bought and see how it looks.
I was initially luke warm on him, but I blame that on the bio. LOL. The figure looks great and I'm excited to get him. I think the colors are a huge improvement, makes him stand out more and looks way less generic than the original. I'm also glad to be getting more space mutants!!!!
Great review!

Karatti will be another figure that I'll have to wait until I have him before I decide if I'll keep him or not. But things are not looking good for him so far.
"Don't crowd me boys!"
Thanks for the review as always I never had this guy as a child, but DO really look forward to having him in my collection! The 4 Horsemen did an outstanding job updating him from his vintage counterpart in my opinion!!
Looks good, i hope we get more mutants soon.

My Trader Feedback: http://www.he-man.org/forums/boards/...mighty-He-Dad!
been waiting for this!! Gonna save it for lunch time
He looks cool!! I really like the bright green colour the 4HM went for his skin. The original figure has the sickly off green colour and the cartoon one had a turquoise skin colour, so I think this figure has the best tone. Also really liking the weapons.

Good review, Dan but your solid black shirt on black background gave you a bit of floating head and arms syndrome. I'm looking forward to this figure much more now.
I'm also convinced this character is even more sinister than I previously thought as the head sculpt now gives me the impression that he is wearing a mask made of another creature's face-skin ala Leatherface! The droopy features and deep set eyes are creepy.

Good to see, that Mattel produced him again without flaws. Figures, that are well manufactured, are good for 2014. end of 2012 and now 2013 seems go be good for QC.
Great review! Can't say I super excited about him but I do think he will look great with the other space mutants

I hated He-Man New Adventures as a kid, but all the NA figures so far in this line have been stellar. Thanks for the video Pixel Dan, and thanks for the great figure Mattel!
Love the bright colours and that armour piece may be the best in the line. All those scratches and shell holes are pretty impressive.

**Somebody please make me a Staghorn**
Man, I am really stoked to get this guy! This review heightens that desire even more!
Looks great, but kinda wish he had a holster for the sword. We finally have a use for the gold/black 200X Whiplash weapon that came in one of the weapon packs though. It matches this guy well, and he joins the few characters with the more open hand for wider weapons.

The eyes of moles and of some burrowing rodents are rudimentary in size, and in some cases are quite covered by skin and fur. This state of the eyes is probably due to gradual reduction from disuse, but aided perhaps by natural selection. In South America, a burrowing rodent, the tuco-tuco, or Ctenomys, is even more subterranean in its habits than the mole; and I was assured by a Spaniard, who had often caught them, that they were frequently blind. One which I kept alive was certainly in this condition, the cause, as appeared on dissection, having been inflammation of the nictitating membrane. As frequent inflammation of the eyes must be injurious to any animal, and as eyes are certainly not necessary to animals having subterranean habits, a reduction in their size, with the adhesion of the eyelids and growth of fur over them, might in such case be an advantage; and if so, natural selection would aid the effects of disuse. (Charles Darwin, The Origin of Species, The Origin of Species/Chapter V)
Moles burrow in lawns, raising molehills, and killing the lawn, for which they are sometimes considered pests. They can undermine plant roots, indirectly causing damage or death. Contrary to popular belief, moles do not eat plant roots.
They are controlled with traps, smoke bombs, and poisons such as calcium carbide and strychnine.
Other common remedies for moles include cat litter and blood meal, to repel the mole, or flooding or smoking its burrow. There are also devices sold to trap the mole in its burrow, when one sees the "mole hill" moving and therefore knows where the animal is, and then stabbing it. Humane traps which capture the mole alive so that it may be transported elsewhere are also options.
Several groups of animals have a similar burrowing lifestyle, and some have developed close physical similarities with moles, forming good examples of convergent evolution.
Mole-like mammals are found in the family Chrysochloridae (the golden moles) and the family Notoryctidae (the marsupial moles). These are not related to true moles, but like moles they live underground and are insectivorous.
There are also similar-looking rodents called mole-rats. These do live underground, but are herbivorous.
Mole-crickets are large burrowing insects which have strong digging forelimbs remarkably like those of moles.

Dallas, Texas
Founded in 1841 and formally incorporated as a city in February, 1856, the city's economy is primarily based on banking, commerce, telecommunications, computer technology, energy, and transportation; only New York City and Houston are home to more Fortune 500 headquarters in the city limits. Located in North Texas and a major city in the American South/Southwest, Dallas is the core of the largest inland metropolitan area in the United States that lacks any navigable link to the sea. The city's prominence despite this comes from its historical importance as a center for the oil and cotton industries, its position along numerous railroad lines, a strong industrial and financial sector, and its status as a major inland port (due largely to the presence of Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, one of the largest and busiest in the world).

Leading Lady 5415 Full Figure Front Closure Racer Back Underwire Bra
Get the perfect seamless look under all the tops and dresses you love with Leading Lady's Racer Back Underwire Full Figure Bra. Enjoy our sturdy front closure bra that's easy to slip on and off. Our molded, padded cups provide light modesty for everyday wear. Give your curves the lift and support they deserve with our well-loved racer back underwire bra style. Our new and unique no-slip strap design elements include tapered, padded straps that comfortably sit on your shoulders, and a racer back to provide extra strap stability. Leading Lady's racer back design features a cooling mesh lining and provides all day support for extended wear. We've updated a Leading Lady full figured woman favorite bra, and we're excited to share our newest design with you!
Front Closure Bra Fitting Tips: Please note a front closure is fitted to the actual bra size and is not adjustable. The Leading Lady 5415 bra is sized to fit the tightest hook on a conventional bra. If you are wearing your bra on the tightest hook this bra will fit you. If you are wearing your bra at the loosest hook, your desired size won't fit, you will need to go to a larger band and a smaller cup.
Example: If you normally wear a 38C and use the loosest hook, you will need to go up a band size and down a cup size in order to have a correct fitting bra. In this example, your bra size will be a 40 B. Please contact our customer service department if you need help with sizing, we will gladly help you.

Finally a bra that fits, stays put (on shoulders) and enhances what nature gave me. I have been looking for this kind of fit for over two years. Even the previous version of this bra did not fit right BUT THE NEW UPDATED ONE IS PERFECT and I am so grateful!!!
This is the only bra I can wear where the straps do not fall off my shoulders ever. I am so happy this style was brought back!
I like how easy it is to put on or off. The front closure is great and I like the racerback design.
I own several Leading Lady 5028s and I love them. However, one of my shoulders is slightly lower that the other so I have a problem with the strap constantly slipping which is annoying.
I pestered Leading Lady shamelessly for a 5028 type bra with a front closure as that is the style that works best for me. They sent me the 5415 several months ago and I am very happy with it. They have a winner.
It wears beautifully, washes well, looks great under T-shirts, and is comfortable enough for yoga class. To me, it's almost like a sports bra but with oomph!
I would rate it excellent but the band length runs a little small, in my opinion, so I tried one size up and am more than happy with it.
Way to go, Leading Lady.
- Q: Are the shoulder straps adjustable? I'm tall and need long straps.
From Donbear on 1/25/14
- A: Thank you for your inquiry.
The straps are in fact adjustable.
- Q: Are the shoulder straps adjustable? I'm tall and need long straps.
- Q: what does the back look like
From toni on 5/6/14
- A: Good Morning,
The back of this bra is a racer back, meaning the fabric goes across the back and up the center of the bra.
I hope this helps.
- Q: what does the back look like
- Q: Is this at all a back minimizer??
From Jessica Picarello on 6/23/14
- A: Hello Jessica.
This is a racerback style and not considered a minimizer.

- Q: Does this bra come in white? If not, why not?
From Cia on 8/20/14
- A: Hello Cia and thank you for your inquiry.
This bra is not offered in White. Sometimes large customer demand will dictate color options as is the case with this style.
- Q: Does this bra come in white? If not, why not?

From Kelly on 1/3/15
- A: Hello and thank you for your inquiry Kelly.
We do offer an assorted pack of extenders for sale on our website. Just type in "extender" in the product search box at the top.
- Q: Do they make an extender for this bra?
- Q: Will the band stretch at all? I actually measure 45" around my chest, but since I am a small "A" I think a 44A would fit better than a 46.
From Brittney on 3/5/15
- A: Hello Brittney and thank you for your inquiry.
As with most bras, the band does stretch. If you're concerned about sizing, we suggest using our fit calculator on our site as a guide towards getting the right size.

There's nothing stopping you from using the Zune software for Windows 8. I use it, and it works just fine.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 16:57
You really have to compare it to something like the iPad music app though (which isn't terribly great either, imo), not the Zune app or iTunes on the Desktop.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 18:05
Yeah, but, on your portable devices you really only need to sync the music and playlists. iTunes was superb at this. Better IMO than Zune, though Zune was the best MS media manager yet.

Resources are spread out, including cash. I realize you probably know that...but felt the need to mention it since I see that comment a lot.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 19:56
Not sure I'm following you with the references to older OS'. I'm only talking about the Xbox Music App in Windows 8 and Windows 8 RT. Does not find music in Library if it is on removable storage though Desktop environment and apps will through the Library. Also, synced Xbox playlists do not find all local files. But this I believe is because when the cloud service can't find a match, nothing is telling the app to search your music library. This occurs on Surface and Desktop with playlists created on either.
I think there's been a lot of indications on the web when searching for solutions that local file support is a work in progress, which is fine. Only they RTM'd. Given that, they are moving way too slow in getting it implemented. I feel they should be working around the clock at the MS campus to get all basic functionality implemented in all apps released to manufacturing.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 20:12
Yeah, I have a 64G SD too. Added to library, doesn't work. Results are erratic across the board. Some people get nothing, I get it if I move from removable (this is on Surface). Desktop picks up all music locations.
When you talk about removable storage, I have 64GB microsdx card in my Surface and I have my entire non-Zune music plus all the Zune music (now converted to XBOX music) loaded there. You just have to make sure the location is added in the Music library and the XBOX music app will pick up all of it. If you enable to download of all music in the settings menu, it will download to that location as well (i have the storage card set as default). Does this help?

Welcome everyone to the 21-Day Vegan Kickstart! This forum is a great place to post your questions, concerns, challenges, and successes! There are lots of us monitoring the posts and jumping in to help, including nutrition staff at PCRM, regular Kickstarters, and newcomers. We're all here for each other.
Cheers to a happy and healthful 2013!
Susan Levin, MS, RDPCRM Director of Nutrition Education
Hi Susan and others,
I am glad to be back doing a kickstart. Its a great way to start off the New Year.
Happy New Year to all.Christine
Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food - Hippocrates.
Hi Susan,
This is my second attempt at a vegan diet. The first time was April 2011. I loved eating this way, felt good, had great energy BUT...... My 280 total cholesterol, 190 bad LDL stayed exactly the same after 9 weeks on the diet. I was discouraged and quit the vegan diet. On the other hand, I have tried low carbing twice and both times lost significant weight and my bloodwork came back with a below 200 total. 150 ldl and 68 HDL. THis past year, my cardiologist said whatever I was doing was working and stay low carb because it works for me.Please help me. I am trying vegan again because I LIKE IT. IT makes me feel good, but I would feel better if I saw an improvement in my numbers. Any advice?? I am a 62 year old male, work out, currently weigh 215 at 6' 1"
I don't know your individual story, of course, but my first thought is trouble shooting where most people may mis-step with a vegan diet. They get the vegan part down great but perhaps don't do so well with the low-fat part.
Getting dietary cholesterol (animal products) out of your diet is important for improving your cholesterol numbers, but truthfully, saturated fat intake is far more detrimental to your cholesterol numbers than dietary cholesterol itself.
Saturated fat is mostly found in animal products (dairy products are the number one source for Americans), but it is found in plants too. Oils and other processed foods like baked goods (even vegan ones!) are going to have significant levels of saturated fat and should be eliminated as much as possible.
Try sticking to a mostly whole foods, plant-based diet. Lots of beans, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. Such a plan will not only improve your cholesterol numbers and weight, but it will support less risk for cancer and other chronic diseases. This is something low-carb dieting cannot provide - a totally holistic health picture.
Hello all. This is not my first time signing up for the Kickstart, but it is my first time actually following through with it. I am excited and ready to change my life by changing my diet and perspective. Good luck to all of us!!
Hi, everyone, and Happy Holidays! I think this is no.4 for me, but I have never been 100% compliant. That is my goal for this kickstart! For those of you that are new, this is a wonderful place to come for questions, ideas, product info, and encouragement. It is an extremely open, non-judgemental, and just fun, forum, that is run by some of the best in the business!
Hi Susan,Thanks for your quick response. I'll give it another try and let you know how it goes and what my numbers are when I have my physical in April. Keep up the great work you do.
Thank you Susan, this is my first time attemping the Vegan Lifestyle. I've been a vegetarian going on 8 years. I am very excited about this site. I've posted 1 question so far and received very helpful info.
This is my second attempt at the Kickstart but not at being vegan, that I have been for just over 4 years now...
I mainly struggle with concentrating on Wholefoods as I am a bit prone to picking up convienience foods instead...
Had my oatmeal, feeling good... Happy New Year/Kickstart everyone!
This will be my first attempt at going Vegan! I watched a documentary called "Forks Over Knives" on Dec 16 the following day I went to Costco and bought the Vitamix and have been doing Green smoothies and have been weening my hubby and I over to plant based whole food eating! I have lost 15lbs and hubby 5 it's been the quickest weight loss I have ever experienced! I still have about 50+ more to go but, my main goal is to get hubby and I off the handful of medications that we take! I am here by the Grace of God! I have been on life support twice due to congestive heart failure and pulmonary fibrosis and 5 other close calls including end stage renal failure and numerous hospital visits each year since 2001! I am taking back my health in 2013! Due to years of steroids for my lungs which took there toll on my body adding 80 lbs, diabetes, AVN (bone death) which I have had a hip replaced and and ankle joint fusion I have already seen improvement in the last 3 weeks and have been able to reduce the amount of morphine I take for the pain, this past week I have not taken any which is fantastic especially for my kidneys! My blood sugars have been dropping as well! And my energy levels have increased! I can see that this change in eating is only going to improve my health and my hubby's for the better! I can't wait to see the results of my blood work in Feb!
Harleymum....I love that you say you are taking back your health in 2013! You go girl!!
You are an inspiration for others. May your health continue to improve on this journey - I believe it will. As you show it is never too late to take control. Kris Carr one of the guest celebrities for the kickstart is a great example of that and it is worth checking out her story if you are not aware of what she went through with her cancer diagnosis before deciding to take control of her health. Seeing what she has done since - amazing....
For another interesting movie have you seen "fat, sick and nearly dead". You can see it for free online at www.hulu.com/watch/289122 if you live in the USA. The website has green smoothie recipes http://www.fatsickandnearlydead.com/
I am so grateful for Dr's Barnard, McDougall, Furhman, Campbell and others who are spending their lives giving us this health information so we can all take control and reap the benefit. My local doctor is a good guy and tries but he works in the sickness industry, not the health industry. There is a big difference
I have a question? Can Splenda or other sweeteners be used? For example in oatmeal banana bites.
The Kickstart does not exclude artificial sweeteners. I would consider cutting back on them, however. They tend to artificially heighten your cravings for sweet things which can make eating healthy more challenging!
Hi everyoneJust want to say how excited I am to begin this journey with you and get to know you all! This is my first time to try life as a vegan and i am really looking forward to it!
Hello everyone
I am really excited about the kickstart. So far I have cooked some of the recipes on the site and my family praised my cooking! Unheard of whenever I would try out health foods before. I do have a couple of questions though:
1. what is considered low-fat? I am on the thin side and breastfeeding. I have trouble maintaining a healthy weight while breastfeeding. Is a low-fat diet healthy for me too?
2. Some of the recipes on the site appear to use refined grains as well as the suggestions for eating out (ie pizza or pasta). Am I to understand that some use of refined grains is ok? What would be a good ratio of whole grain: refined grains to aim for?
Thanks for your answer, I am just trying to understand the rules for the next 21 days.

Colorado Avalanche (32-14-5) at Dallas Stars (24-20-8), 8:30 p.m.
(SportsNetwork.com) - The red-hot Dallas Stars will try to push their winning streak to a season-high four straight games on Monday night when they face the Colorado Avalanche.
The Stars have outscored their opponents 14-1 over their first three-game winning streak since Nov. 13-17 and it comes at a great time as they had lost nine of 10 before this stretch. Dallas now sits six points behind Minnesota for eighth place in the Western Conference.
Kari Lehtonen has keyed the Stars' current win streak, posting two shutouts and stopping 66-of-67 shots faced. He stopped all 24 shots fired his way in Saturday's 3-0 win over Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Lehtonen posted his third shutout of the season and 25th of his career, supported by goals from Sergei Gonchar, Jamie Benn and Rich Peverley. The netminder also assisted on Gonchar's first-period power-play goal, while Benn has two goals and six points over his last three games.
"The last three games have all been excellent from all three zones. Tonight was a very good win for our team," Stars head coach Lindy Ruff said.
Dallas has won the first three of its five-game homestand and will try to win four in a row for the first time since April 5-13 of last season.
Colorado aims to finish off a three-game road trip with a victory and avoid a third loss in four games. The Avs began the swing with a 3-2 victory in Florida on Friday, but lost 5-2 the following night to the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Semyon Varlamov made 34 saves in the win over the Panthers and the Avs were slated to start backup Jean-Sebastian Giguere on Saturday, but he was unable to go due to a stiff back. That led to 21-year-old Sami Aittokallio making the start, the second of his career.
The youngster yielded three goals on 18 shots and was lifted after the second period. All three goals allowed came in the middle frame as he made 11 saves in the opening period before getting beat on a rebound goal and then a knuckler from the top right of the circle in a 1:33 span of the second.
"Those first two goals, I've got to make those saves," Aittokallio admitted.
John Mitchell and Tyson Barrie scored goals in the final two minutes of the second period, but Varlamov was beaten twice on 11 shots in the third.
Though he didn't get the full rest the Avs wanted, Varlamov should be back in net tonight. He has won all three of his starts versus the Stars this season, posting a 1.97 goals against average, and is 4-3-2 against them lifetime with a 3.27 GAA.
Lehtonen is 0-1-1 versus the Avalanche this season, yielding nine goals on 77 shots, but still a solid 8-4-2 in his career with a 2.76 GAA in his career against them.
The Avalanche won their first three meetings with the Stars this season before dropping the back end of a home-and-home set on Dec. 17 in Dallas. They have lost four of their last six as the visitor in this series.

Work of Art: Kymia Nawabi
- Dates: December 22, 2011 through February 5, 2012
- Collections: Contemporary Art
... more
December 22, 2011: Work of Art: Kymia Nawabi, an exhibition by the winner of the second season of Bravo's Work of Art: The Next Great Artist, will open to the public on Thursday, December 22, and will be on view at the Brooklyn Museum through February 5, 2012. Bravo's Work of Art is an hour-long, 10-part, creative competition television series among fourteen contemporary artists who assembled in New York City under the watchful eye of art world luminaries to battle it out for this show at the Brooklyn Museum.
A poem by Nawabi, titled "Not for long, my forlorn," introduced this presentation when it initially appeared on the final episode of the Bravo series. Nawabi's poem articulates her ideas on the cyclical nature of life, with death and rebirth as natural aspects. Her winning exhibition may be seen as an expression of her personal mythology and a metaphysical journal that explores what it means to be human.
The exhibition includes 12 paintings and two sculptures inspired by the Egyptian deity Thoth, most often represented as a man with the head of an ibis, a sacred bird in ancient Egypt. The artist appropriates for her own mythology the idea of Thoth as the god who holds the universe in balance and who greets the deceased in the afterlife. The bird and the pattern of a bird's feathers are recurring motifs in her work, often in the shape of the feather skin of her figures. Sometimes, as with the sculpture of a helmet, Closer to Thoth, or the large drawing The Soul Purpose, the skin of feathers resembles blades of grass.
Nawabi also expresses the idea of the cycles of life through the use of the Ouroboros, an ancient symbol of eternity that is often depicted in the shape of a snake eating its own tail. The snake, as it appears in Nawabi's poem and in her painting Have Faith in the Ouroboros, is viewed by the artist as a positive force, and the shedding of skin becomes a metaphor for the renewal of life and the passage from one form of life to the next. References to burials are common in her work: in an image of a feathered figure returning to earth or an allusion to Norse boat funerals as portrayed in the painting The Bridge. Similarly, three sculptures of soil, stone, and wood that comprise Devotional Medal, a work decorated with mirrors, may be viewed as burial mounds.
Thirty-year-old, New York-based artist Kymia Nawabi received a BFA from East Carolina University and an MFA from the University of Florida and is recipient of several residencies and awards for her work.
Work of Art: The Next Great Artist, which culminated on December 21 with the airing of the finale, revealed Nawabi as the winner selected from a group of three finalists for a prize of this one-person exhibition, a cash award, and the cover of an art publication, Blue Canvas magazine. Each of the three finalists was given three months to prepare for the final episode. The exhibitions were on view at Phillips de Pury & Company, a leading global auction house for contemporary art, design, and photography. Simon de Pury, the Chairman and Chief Auctioneer, served as a mentor to the contestants throughout the competition, alongside China Chow, who functioned as host and judge, with series judges Bill Powers and Jerry Saltz.

Helena Morrissey: it's no surprise that so few women plan to go to Davos
So it's that time of year again – when the attendee list for Davos is scrutinised and criticised for a stark lack of female representation. Just one in seven delegates this year are women. Shock! Horror!

Paul Merson
Football Expert & Columnist @PaulMerse
Man of woe
Paul Merson tips one of the Manchester clubs to lose on Super Sunday. Read all his shouts here...
Last Updated: 21/09/12 8:24am
As ever, you can follow all the Premier League action this weekend on Sky Sports.
We asked Soccer Saturday expert Paul Merson to look at the fixtures and give us his verdict on where the games will be won and lost.
Every week he'll be here on skysports.com to share his views on who he expects to be the winners and losers of the weekend.
Ford Super Sunday: Liverpool v Man Utd
1pm, Sun, Sky Sports 1 HD & Sky 3D
Liverpool have started the season like they normally do: hot and cold.
They were hot, at times, against Man City and Sunderland, but they were freezing cold against Arsenal. That's been the way for a few years now with Liverpool; the consistency hasn't been there.
I worry that they've only got one real forward in Luis Suarez and if he gets injured I can see them struggling. They haven't got anyone else and I think Brendan Rodgers made up his mind too early to get rid of Andy Carroll.
Rodgers still needs time to impose his way of playing on the team. He wants the players to pass the ball but when that isn't working - as against Arsenal - the players need to be big enough to keep wanting to get on the ball.
It's a bit easier to do that at Swansea when the fans aren't expecting you to win every weekend, but at Liverpool the fans will put pressure on the players.
Steven Gerrard is my favourite footballer, but his game is all about opening teams up with 40-yard passes. Now he's being asked to give it five or 10 yards. Joe Allen will keep the ball all day long, but he won't really hurt you, whereas Gerrard's at his best when he's putting the ball through the eye of a needle.
There's no way you can leave him out, but Rodgers must let him play his own game because that game has made him one of the best players in world football. I'd be worried if he's asking him to change.
This is a big game for both teams and is probably the biggest of the season so far for Manchester United. I think they might approach it like Arsenal did by sitting back and playing counter-attacking football.
They haven't been playing well, but they're near the top of the league because they know how to grind out results. They were extremely lucky to beat Galatasaray in the Champions League, Wigan were comfortable against them for 45 minutes last week and Southampton took them all the way. For that reason I don't see Liverpool losing this game.
Liverpool need to send the fans home with the feeling that they can get into the top four. I'm going to take away the Arsenal defeat and think about the Man City and Sunderland games. If they play that well, and get a bit of luck, I think they will win.
Ford Super Sunday: Man City v Arsenal
3.30pm, Sun, Sky Sports 1 HD & Sky 3D
Arsenal won't be worried about going to Manchester City. There's nothing to fear for them.
They were as comfortable as you can get against both Liverpool and Stoke and they've only let in one goal in the league so far.
The appointment of Steve Bould has made them much more solid at the back. He played in the best defence the Premier League has ever seen and he's made sure they all know their positions. They always looked like conceding last season, but he's tightened them up.
Earlier in the season I was worried about the balance. In the first couple of games they were keeping clean sheets without looking like scoring. They've addressed that now and the front three looks very good.
The great thing is they've got lots of players like Gervinho, Theo Walcott, Olivier Giroud and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain who can come into those positions and Lukas Podolski is flying at the moment. It's hard to guess which players will play on Sunday.
There's still a lot of improvement to do, but they are in good shape to take on a Manchester City team who were second best in the Bernabeu on Tuesday night.
But even though they were outplayed for long periods they should have won the match. If Yaya Toure had put his chance away I think they would have.
Roberto Mancini will be concerned they are letting in too many goals. They haven't kept a clean sheet in six games this season and have conceded two or more on four occasions. That's not like Man City.
It used to be the other way around. They would keep things tight and then go from there. It will be interesting to see what the manager does about that.
However, Man City have learned to do what Man United have done over the years - they know how to get into football matches even when they're not at their best. Even if they're 2-1 down with 10 minutes to go you can never write them off.
This should be an open game with both sides making chances and Man City will always be in it. I'm going for a Desmond.
Ford Football Special: Swansea v Everton
12.30pm, Sat, Sky Sports 2 HD
Some people are saying Swansea were disappointed to lose at Aston Villa.
With all due respect, we are talking about Swansea City here. I think we might be getting a bit carried away with them. I tipped them to win last week, but I wasn't surprised afterwards. There isn't much between those teams.
Meanwhile, Everton were outstanding against Newcastle. The word 'unlucky' doesn't do them justice. That Victor Anichebe shot was so far over the line it was unbelievable.
And what a player Leighton Baines is. I haven't seen a left-back affect a football match so often since Roberto Carlos was at Real Madrid. I can't praise him any more than that. He's a star player as a left-back, which is very rare.
They are a good team all over though and should have brushed aside a very good Newcastle team in the first-half. The only concern is there's not many waiting in the wings if they get injuries and suspensions. If they're all fit, I could probably name their team now.
I think they will win this game if Nikica Jelavic is fit because he scores goals and brings people into the game, but it looks like his knee injury will keep him out. If he doesn't play I'm going for a draw.
Chelsea v Stoke
Stoke have drawn all four games this season. It sounds okay to say they're undefeated, but if they lose this one it'll be five games without a win. I don't expect them to win this one though. I would expect Chelsea to win at home fairly comfortably here.
Southampton v Aston Villa
Paul Lambert has got Aston Villa hungry again. It's taken a couple of weeks, but I think the cup game against Tranmere turned around the confidence and belief of those players. I fancy Villa to go to St Mary's and win because the pressure will be on Southampton. I think Villa will pick them off.
West Brom v Reading
I thought Reading would be alright this season, but they were so far out of their depth against Tottenham it was scary. They played 4-5-1 at home to a Tottenham team that was severely under pressure and it played into their opponents' hands. So I've got to go for West Brom to bounce back at home.
West Ham v Sunderland
West Ham have had a great start to the season, but I was disappointed by Sunderland against Liverpool last week. The first 20 minutes will be very important here because West Ham tend to fly out of the blocks and blow teams away at home. Sunderland need to try to keep it tight or they could be in trouble.
Wigan v Fulham
Wigan got blown away in the second half against Manchester United last week, but I think they can draw a lot of confidence from what they did in the first half. I think this is set to be a very open game against a Fulham team that got a good win over West Brom. There should be goals in this one.
Newcastle v Norwich
I was surprised Norwich didn't beat West Ham last week and the pressure is on them in this game. Newcastle were outplayed by Everton for long spells but still came away with a 2-2 draw - and that just shows what a good team Alan Pardew has got there. This team will always be a threat.
Tottenham v QPR
Tottenham played two defensive midfielders at home to Norwich a few weeks ago, but you looked at their team sheet last week and there were goals in the side. If they can go out with a bit of bottle and try to win the match - rather than avoid losing it - then I see them beating QPR. I think QPR will get it together, but I'm not sure how quickly.

Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides size limits
Documents, spreadsheets, and presentations you create, as well as files that you upload, have some limits built in. For instance, files you create or upload that are larger than 5 TB can't be viewed within Google Drive. There are also limits, specific to file type, listed below.
Size limits
Documents: 1,024,000 characters, regardless of the number of pages or font size. Uploaded document files that are converted to the Google Docs format can't be larger than 50 MB. If you're using an older version of Drive, you can't convert document files that are larger than 10 MB.
Spreadsheets: 2 million cells. If you don't see a green checkmark at the bottom of your spreadsheet, it is using the old version of Sheets and there are different limits, listed in the expandable section below.Spreadsheet limits in the old Sheets
If you're close to exceeding Google spreadsheets size limits, you'll see a message at the top of your spreadsheet that indicates what limit you're about to reach.
- Number of cells: 400,000 total cells across all sheets
- Number of columns: 256 columns per sheet
- Number of formulas: 40,000 cells containing formulas across all sheets
- Number of tabs: 200 sheets per workbook
- GoogleFinance formulas: 1,000 GoogleFinance formulas
- ImportRange formulas: 50 cross-workbook reference formulas
- ImportData, ImportHtml, ImportFeed, or ImportXml formulas: 50 functions for external data.
Google forms size limits
These size limits also impact the spreadsheets that collect form responses (for example, if you send a survey). To determine the number of responses that a form can handle, take the number of questions in your form and the number of cells containing other data into account.
Complex Calculations
Google spreadsheets also have complexity limits. Every time a cell is updated, any cell that references it will also be recalculated. If formulas become too complex or take too long to calculate, the spreadsheet will timeout during calculation.
Formulas that increase the complexity of a spreadsheet include:
- VLOOKUP, QUERY, SUMIF, and many similar formulas that take a large range of cells as input.
- Volatile formulas (e.g., NOW, RAND, OFFSET, INDIRECT) are recalculated every time the spreadsheet is modified. If there are a large number of formulas that depend on cells with volatile formulas, they will be re-calculated on each edit, which may slow down a spreadsheet.
- Import-based formulas (e.g., IMPORTRANGE) are recalculated periodically and magnify complexity.
Approaching complexity thresholds
If a spreadsheet takes several seconds to finish calculating, a warning message will appear at the top of the screen. This warning means that formulas may start to display errors or take a significantly long time to calculate if complexity in the spreadsheet is increased. To remove this warning, reduce complexity in the spreadsheet using the tips listed below.
Exceeding complexity thresholds
If a spreadsheet exceeds complexity thresholds, an error message will be shown at the top of your screen. Cells that haven't finished calculating after several seconds will be annotated with errors; however, these cells will continue to calculate in the background until they update with correct values. These calculations may take up to several minutes, depending on the size of the spreadsheet.
Note that every time a cell is updated, all cells dependent on that cell are recalculated. This means that changes to a single cell could cause the entire spreadsheet to recalculate. In some cases, this could take up to several minutes. To avoid exceeding complexity thresholds, go back and modify recent updates to the spreadsheet, following the tips below to reduce complexity.
Tips & Tricks
- Try breaking up a large spreadsheet into multiple smaller spreadsheets.
- Minimize the number of complex formulas. See the list above for examples of functions that increase complexity.
- After getting data points through any complex formula, try to copy-and-paste them as "values only."
- Select the values and copy them.
- Go to the Edit menu.
- Point your mouse to "Paste special."
- Select "Paste values only."
- Minimize the number of cells that depend on:
- A large number of other cells.
- Cells with complex formulas.
- Cells that are changed frequently.
Presentations: Presentations created in Google Slides can be up to 100 MB. Uploaded presentation files that are converted to Google Slides can also be up to 100 MB.
Drawings: We've never seen anyone make a drawing that was too big (but that's not a dare).
Other files: Files that you upload but don't convert to a Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides format can be up to 5 TB each.
Across Google Drive, Gmail, and Google Photos, every user is given 15 GB of free storage space, and can purchase additional storage as well.
Reducing file size
The best way to reduce file size and save disk space is by compressing images in your document. When compressing images, the amount of detail in the image and image dimensions may decrease. There are a number of free and paid tools for easy image optimization and compression available for the general public online.

I don't know how to get into this area, or more specifically, become a website maker. Here's what I now
- html
- some java script
- and a little of everything else (php, css, xhtml, ect.)
I've been on w3schools.com for a while reading and doing the tutorials and I've become much more knowledgeable about websites since I started. But when I compair what I've learned from w3schools to a website template I downloaded I notice things in this template that w3schools never even mentioned. What I'm wondering is whats the best way to go about becoming a web coder on your own, would it continuing w3schools be good? Or just download template read through them and figure out how the code works? One more question, I noticed these all use SQL, how do I go about learning SQL? and sorry, I lied, one more question, whats the best step process when learning web code? like what order, html then css then php? or html then xhtml then css? that kinda thing.
Edit: A website like this is my goal in this area: geforce.com Do you think making a website like this is difficult from a expert's view?
