What are the best Steam Summer Sale deals? Each day for the duration of the sale, we'll be offering our picks – based on price, what we like, and what we think more people should play. Read on for the five best deals from day 8 of the sale.
Day 8: RPS still does not suspect I am a talking five pound note.

What are the best Steam Summer Sale deals? Each day for the duration of the sale, we'll be offering our picks – based on price, what we like, and what we think more people should play. Read on for the five best deals from day 8 of the sale.

Bruce Wayne, billion dollar playboy who was recently declared Least Likely Man On Earth To Be Batman (Of The Year) by Time magazine, is at it again. He's teamed with a gaming storefront known as the Humble Bundle to sell games largely focused on Batman for no specific reason. The proceeds of a pay-what-you-want bundle that includes that likes of Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City will go toward a sprawling tunnel-based weapons facility beneath Gotham charities and game developers.
By Nathan Grayson on October 19th, 2013.
Even when villains are given a good, hard KAPOWTHWACKBIFFZOTT-ing and the day is saved, Batman stories rarely end on entirely happy notes. Thus, it's almost sort of fitting that Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City haven't escaped Games For Windows Live's years-long countdown to self-destruction entirely unscathed. Yes, they're finally free of Microsoft's arbitrary, ages-behind-the-times shackles, but your save files, amazingly, won't be making the jump to Steam. Kinda justifies some of those fears we've had about these DRM systems for all this time, huh? You know, the ones companies like Microsoft tried to reassure us about by promising that they'd never leave us without the things we worked so hard to buy and earn?
By Craig Pearson on October 4th, 2013.
Small victories are important. Games For Windows Live has been minced into a fine paste and sent off to a major supermarket chain as a horse meat substitute, but the effects of it are still being felt. Most games are still saddled with the client, and it takes an act of will on the part of the publishers to swab that canker sore. 2K did that to BioShock 2 last night. All traces of the client have been yanked out of the Steam version, with the publisher adding joypad and Big Picture support in, as well as bringing the DLC to Steam for you to buy (so it's not totally altruistic). It's the first time Minerva's Den can be bought anywhere but the GFWL marketplace.

We may be in for a third Batscapade from the Arkhamverse, according to Warner suits in the company's latest earnings call, and it'll probably be this year too.
There's almost nothing to go on, other than Warner's Chief Financial Officer John K. Martin letting slip that "and we also have a strong games release this year, which will include the next release in the Batman Arkham franchise." This means it's up to us to let slip the dogs of speculation.

Edit: We're reading below that lots of regions outside the UK are being charged a really very much larger sum. Which sucks. Valve will always insist prices are decided by publishers, so yell at Warner. There's also confusion over the inclusion of Arkham City and War In The North – to be absolutely clear, the Warner Complete Pack definitely currently includes those games, whether by design or mistake. It also seems that some regions can't see the deal at all. The solution: move to the UK.
I'm never quite sure whether posting about the Steam sale is doing mindless promotion for the company, or alerting our readers to amazing prices for games. I'm going with the latter in this instance, because bloody hell, this one took me by surprise. Not boasted of on the front page of Steam's decidedly confusing sales page (not including the names of the games on sale is perhaps an odd choice) is the Warner Complete Pack. Clearly one of many extraordinarily reduced bundles (19 THQ games for £50, 80 Sega games for £70 for instance), the Warner bundle brings 18 games for £40, and one of them is Batman: Arkham City. So that's basically "buy Arkham City, get every other Warner game on Steam free." And one of those is Bastion. And another is the brand new Lord Of The Rings: War In The North. And of course yet another is Batman: Arkham Asylum.

It was rumoured, and then it was confirmed, and then we were all like :(
For it is true: the man of bats will not strike back on PC in 10 days' time, but instead in 17 days' time. A small wait, perhaps, but we've already had to hang on for almost a month later than the console-folk. Yes, the already-delayed Batman: Arkham City PC port, mooted to be the very bestest version of Brucie-boy's semi-open-world swinging adventures thanks to various technical jiggery-pokery done with the help of NVIDIA, has been delayed anew. November 25 is the new date, which at least is safely after all Big Three of November's remaining new releases – MW3, Skyrim, Saints Row 3 – are all done and dusted and we'll have time to think about something else/sleep.
There's no word on why the PC version was delayed, and what the state of play will be for the various DLC by then. Oh well. Here's a Nightwing DLC trailer to tide you over.

Batman! A game so good that Yahoo awarded it 6/5, thus unwittingly demonstrating that review scores are little more than a media pissing contest whose only real beneficiary is publishers' marketing departments and people who like to shout at other people on forums. Which is exactly why we don't give scores here. Can Arkham City possibly live up to such drooling superlatives? Well, I can't yet speak for the PC version – which isn't out until November 18, though we're hoping to have code before then – but I did spend far too much of my week off playing the console version (I'm sorry, I just fancied getting a different sort of RSI on top of the one I already have from my mouse and keyboard), thus have a very good sense of the game itself if not its technical aspects and improvements on PC. So, if you must, consider this not a Wot I Think, but an extended preview offering some idea of what to expect in a few weeks.

I'm so sorry. There's going to be a proper scandal about that. GamesIndustry.biz or Gamasutra or someone will probably run an expose about the awful corruption at RPS. Last week, I brazenly claimed, to your face, that this would be the last Batman: Arkham City trailer we'd post before the pointlessly-delayed PC release next month.
Because here's the first proper PC footage of Arkham City.

Well, maybe. Suppose it depends on whether they squeak out any particularly tasty DLC. With the game due for release on the unantialiased darklands of console next week and currently drawing huge review scores – but sadly delayed on PC – its constant torrent of promotional videos is now capped off by this launch-ish trailer. It's very dramatic! It implies Batman facing his darkest challenge since all the other dark challenges he's faced and will no doubt continue to face! It features some slightly troubling voice acting!
It also looks rather cracking, which makes me only grumpier that we'll have to wait a few weeks to play it on our faithful game-towers.

I have nothing but sympathy for poor old Mr Freeze and the comics writer who created him, Ian Cold. From Batman's already ludicrous rogue's gallery (Man-Bat! Calendar Man!), his star is surely the most fallen, thanks to the governor of California's chilling portrayal in the most nippletastic of all the Batman movies. How to make this pun-spewing pastiche remotely fearsome again? Well, give him a massive helmet, Terminator-esque body language, all manner of complicated-looking technology including some natty robot goggles and the sum total of zero one-liners: that's the Arkham City approach.

Gotham City Imposters, which can very loosely be described as Team Fortress 2 populated by armies of crazies pretending to be either Batman or the Joker, is two important things: 1) the first game from NOLF-makers Monolith since the dour FEAR 2, and more importantly their first attempt to do humour and outlandishness rather than po-faced horror since 2003 2) bonkers.
This is why my bat-sense is tingling at news GCI has opened beta sign-ups.

Batman: Arkham City gets closer and closer, and we get exciteder and excitider, and in the heat of our anticipation become less gramatickly accurate. After what feels like years of teasing, concept art and pre-order incentives, finally we get to take a long, lingering look at what it's really like in action. Below: 12 minutes of the game, including playable funtimes from both Batman and Catwoman, good acting, awful acting, Two-Face's disgusting head and many many many goons and hi-tech shenanigans.

This year, Salon Professionals in Fayetteville decided to have their holiday open house benefit the Washington Regional Cancer Support Home. Co-owner of the salon, Tina Vanderhoof, once visited the support home after her best friend was diagnosed with breast cancer. To help raise awareness, she decided they were going to give away a complete makeover to a cancer patient or caregiver.
"They're so busy giving of themselves to take care of someone else that they don't have time to take care of themselves... and so to be pampered, she said was just absolutely fabulous," said Vanderhoof.
After several entries, the winner was named and after a week full of hair cuts and color, makeup, manicures and pedicures, the final result was unveiled.
"They have just spoiled me here and pampered me and it is much more amazing than I would have imagined it. I always wanted a makeover, but I didn't expect to get one. It's just been wonderful," said Sandi Caster.
Caster was the caregiver for family members during their battle with cancer, and she herself is a survivor of the disease. Both ladies hope the event will help bring attention to all of the wonderful services the Washington Regional Cancer Support Home provides.

Okay, I'm not able to uplink pics from my camera yet so hopefully the description will be enough. I've scoured the net and haven't had any luck.
The base is a clear blue disk, it slides open in the middle. The edges kinda look like they may have been sculpted to be energy, there are some little purple dots here and there, and the inner circle has a bunch of smaller circles and rings. Where the base splits there are two holes that also seperate.
On the bottom it says "1998 Marvel, Toy Biz".
I'm not very familiar with the early Toy Biz lines so I'm not real sure which one it came from.
Any body able to figure it out?

Sheikh Ahmad Assir speaks during a rally in Sidon, Lebanon on Saturday, Aug. 18, 2012 (The Daily Star/Mohammed Zaatari)
BEIRUT: Tens of supporters of Sheikh Ahmad Assir gathered over the weekend in the coastal city of Sidon to protest the recent spree of kidnappings in the country and denounce Hezbollah's insistence on maintaining its arms.
The protesters marched from the Bilal Bin Rabah Mosque to the Karameh roundabout near the northern entrance of the sea road in Sidon. They carried banners praising the Syrian uprising and denouncing President Bashar Assad.
Addressing his supporters, Assir said: "What happened in the past few days, with the showcasing of a military wing, the appearance of masked gunmen, the deployment of armed men and threats to figures is very alarming."
Assir was referring to the Meqdad clan, which announced that its "military wing" had kidnapped over 20 Syrians and a Turkish national in retaliation for the abduction of one of its kinsmen in Damascus by Syrian rebels.
Although the Meqdad clan has since announced a halt to its "military operations" against Syrians affiliated with the Free Syrian Army (FSA), three Syrians were briefly kidnapped Saturday.
Another Turkish man was kidnapped earlier this week while ten Syrians were also kidnapped by a previously unknown group demanding the release of 11 Lebanese pilgrims kidnapped by the FSA on May 22.
Assir also spoke extensively about Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah's comments that his party would not wait for permission to respond if Lebanon is attacked by Israel.
Addressing Nasrallah, Assir said: "You are not the one to decide when to fight on behalf of Lebanon."
Assir and his supporters blocked a portion of the vital Sidon highway for almost a month earlier this year in protest of Hezbollah's arsenal.
"We announce to the prime minister and all Lebanese that we will resort to one escalation after the other until the last moment of our lives and until [all] arms come under the jurisdiction of the state," he warned.
Addressing Hezbollah, he added: "You will not rest until you place your arms as an item on the agenda of the National Dialogue; otherwise, we will never be silent regarding your arms, whether you like it or not," he added.
He also said that supporters of Iran and Syria in Lebanon insist on "sinking the ship" that is Lebanon in order to save the embattled government in Damascus.

eraser head
i bought eraserhead a couple of weeks ago and i wanted to watch it enough to be writing a disturbing song, i watched it and it didnt effect me as much as it did when i first saw it, then after another time, it was completely normal, i can imagine a normal person watching it and they would piss themselfs and not want to watch it, i dont watch it all the time because its boring to me, but i still love it and will watch it when i am in the mood
Wow, yeah! I remember watching that movie years and years ago! Probably last millenium (I am old). That is the most bizarre movie I have ever seen, and I'm scared to watch it again, especially now because I have a child. Years ago after one of my friends had a child I said "ew, you are sick aren't you" to the kid and my friend almost threw up! I guess compared to today standards it is not that far out there, but back in 1990s that movie was ground breaking. Actually I don't want to watch it again because thinking of that movie still makes me feel sick.

SOME 20 000 years after their first showing, a collection of engravings is at the centre of a dispute that pits culture against economic progress. The works of art are important prehistoric engravings on the rocks of the Coa valley in northeast Portugal. The cause of the dispute is a dam being built on a nearby tributary of the Douro river. When the dam is finished, the rock art will be drowned under a hundred metres of water.
Some archaeologists have called on the government to stop construction of the dam and protect the site. The government argues that the dam is vital to the local economy. The passionate debate about the site has been whipped into something approaching a frenzy by rival groups of archaeologists and by politicians vying for popularity in the run-up to an election.
The dam, the second in the valley, is being built by the ...

David is a slick and classy struggle between right and wrong. If only all three stories had enough meat to make for a 2+ hour film. Only 1.5 of the 3 do.
With David, Bejoy Nambiar struggles the gray area between right and wrong. Be it love or war - whether an action is right or wrong, many a time, becomes debatable given the situation. Nambiar explores that zone in-between. Unfortunately, only one of the three tales he chooses is compelling and there is a half baked one. Though the third one struggled the most with the dilemma, it seemed more like a comic and romantic relief to take the edge off the seriousness of the other two.
David (London, 1975 - Neil Nitin Mukhesh) is part of a Muslim underworld family. Though he is not a part of the family, he is trusted the most. Yet, the family is keeping some of his personal history from him. Should that change his alliance with the family? The most layered of the three, this is the one that tears its David up the most. The black and white treatment stands in good contrast to David's conflict within.
David (Mumbai, 1999 - Vinay Virmani) belongs to a lower middle-class Christian family. A local politician accuses his father, a priest, of trying to convert Hindus into Muslims. David's struggle as a common man is much like the situation of the common man today, over a decade later. The build up in this one with David's quest for why he and his family are suffering kept me intrigued. However, it loses steam towards the end. The way it culminates though resonated the most with me.
David (Goa, 2010 - Chiyaan Vikram) is a Goan village's outcast because his wife left him at the wedding altar. Other than the fact, that that makes no sense, I believe in the human race's capacity to hold one person's misfortunes against him. The simplest of them all this one should have had its David miserable between friendship and love. But, somehow that ground is left uncovered and gets diverted with its humor that shuffles between dark, slapstick and quirky.
One of David's main problems is the length. Though it has three stories to tell, there are times when the film feels like it is a little all over the place. The only thing holding it together are awesome performance across the board. From the three main leads to Monica Dogra, Tabu, Saurabh Shukla and the people he possesses, right upto Rohini Hatangadi - all give play their bits with conviction.
There is one thing I have begun to love about Bejoy Nembiar's films. The way he picturizes his songs. The most unlikely songs are set against some brutal action sequences and yet they sound and look beautiful. Of course, the rest of the film too is slick and has a classy touch to it. The good news is that the feeling I got in Shaitan that his film is a vehicle to showcase all the "cool" things he ever wanted to have in films, has reduced. So, yet again, I am left looking forward to his next film. If only, it had more to hold the film together.
As far as the connection between the three Davids goes, one David doesn't let the other go out of character while sticking to his roots. The third one, well he's just there waiting to be noticed by one other David. Let's just say this, the three are as connected as you and I. I write what you read, you read what I write. We are all connected by the cosmic energy in between. Call it fate, or call it God's will.

Liked Shaitan, will probably end up watching this one when it is out on DVD.
Good call, @Rahul

The first three houses are so neat and tidy and very-well kept. No doubt they didn't have vinyl/aluminum siding on them a hundred years ago, but they look in really good shape. It's wonderful that you can go there and take photographs. Wish I didn't live so far away from the homes of my ancestors so I could do that, too.

Purchased both Honda 2013 Models
Metropolitan for wife in white- OTD cost approx 2,400, the bump ^ delaer handling & prep . could have done better had Irealized buying a new scoot is no different then buying a new car....Am located in Maryland...
PCX 150 in red for me- OTD cost approx 3,900 breakdown: MSRP + title, taxes tags, & delaer "surcharges"
Both with 1.9% Honda financing deal good till end of month...
The availbiltiy of these scooters appears to be elusive though I'd say from reading other posts plunking down the $500 deposit seems to produce one sooner.... maybe my imagination, just sayin
Havent taken delivery yet, will pick them up Monday. I've never owned a motorized vehicle unless counting wife's Schwinn Tailwind ebike.. I'm avid MTB rider --any form of 2 wheel transport is appealing... I test rode the Met, it sold me on a Scooter. never did on PCX .... when they told me the "uncrated one today" I told the to hold it.
I'll post more on them as time progresses......
Very cool. I just started adulthood cycling and I like it better than driving in a car. Good choice on bikes too.
Are you giving up pedal power?
nice one man post pics when you get them
The new Metropolitan is a re-badged Honda Giorno made in China, rather than the Japanese built Crea Scoopy that has been our Metropolitan ill these years. The new model is air-cooled instead of liquid-cooled on previous models, although it does add fuel injection.
So youse talking abotu never owning a 2-wheeled motorized vehicle, or you ain't owned nothing? Either way, good choices! :thumb
That 150 will have pleanty of power. IMO I'm have an Elite 150 and it has plenty of acceleration even compared to my 700 cc Shadow. Only issue is top speed on interstates. If it was all I had, it'd be alright on the freeway. Stay in the right lane and cruise, watch out for cagers you'll be fine!
The PCX is a great scoot. And the Met is great for getting your wife started. I'm sure y'all will have lots of fun! Enjoy and keep us posted!
BTW, welcome to the forum!
WTF?:huh I don't like that! No wander the price has dropped on the Met. Just hate to see more made in China. While I'm sure its still build to Honda's standards, I still don't like it. And why air cooling? Cheaper I guess. But I thought the little radiator on the 50 was neat before! Not entirely necessary, but it looks good in the features! Air coolings alright, but seems with the scoots them fans tend to make a lot of noise when you driving it, I don't like it make it sound like a whiny. Sounds alot like a Winda Air Conditioner.
Fuel Injection is totally unnecessary on a scoot. Mostly done for emmisions I'm sure. But IMHO it just adds more problems in the future. Nothing like a good ol' simple carb. ALTHOUGH, the trouble shooting is neat with a code scanner!:evil But then again, no more roadside repairs like the good ol' days!:cry
I personally prefer carburetors as they add personality to the machine, and I've never had any issues rebuilding carbs... hell, I've been working on them since I was ten. Carbs also have the unique ability to function in a variety of states of disrepair; they don't just up and quit; they give warning signs, and will often allow you to limp home when things do go wrong. Fuel injection either works, or it doesn't. It's that simple. Diagnosing fuel injection issues on a single-cylinder machine shouldn't be too bad; there is an MIL indicator on the dash, and the system is relatively simple; injector, crank angle sensor, temperature sensor, o2 sensor, and computer.
One major benefit of fuel injection; the systems are usually well designed, and will typically outlive the life of the engine and require almost no maintenance between riding seasons. Also, modern FI systems are way less complex than a CV carb, as long as the electrics don't give out. This means no more enrichener valve, no choke, no float and bowl, no needle valves, no slide, no plunger, no vacuum chamber, and no more vacuum lines.
My next machine will be a Suzuki Burgman 400, which is all computerized and way more complex than my Helix. Luckily, I have at least five more years with the Helix before I even THINK about a new machine.
feedback so far for PCX150 & Metropolitan
SInce this is my first 2 wheeler ever my observations are somewhat limited. I'd like to hear from others to compare notes: The PCX150 is a really nice looking machine. Its quiet, handles well and pretty mich is a sum of the positives others speak to. I'm on my 2nd tank of fuel, The "low fuel" comes on pretty quick once you get to 1/2 a tank & will make you sweat it out until you realize you still have almost a half gallon to spare. I removed the seat bump to attempt to attain more seating flexibility but it didnt prove to be of any benefit. The area where it resideson the seat is not cushioned nor is the seat material (vinynl) glued to that part of the seat--there is just a void of space. Pickup seems strong up to 40-45 MPH but after 45 it struggles to 50-55. I have not had it past 58-- I dont think it will go much faster than that. plus I'm not too comfortable waiting for it to climb to 60> with my current rider skillset. For the record I weigh 202 lbs and am 5'11". The fit & finish is good, the controls have a sold feel , and the seat storage is impressive. The seat closing task is a bit goofy-- you have to press it down firm and listen/feel for the latching, others have mentioned this as well. The engine cadence on the 150 is somewhat gurgley-- unlike metropolitan which is smoother sounding. I hope either (a) it needs a shop adjustment of some type or (b) it just isnt broken in yet to go near 70 mph as I heard others therorize based on owning a PCX 125. I have 120 miles on it so far....
The Metropolitan: The wife likes it Nice scooter all the way around, Excellant choice for a first timer. The accelaration is about what I expected-- even exceeds a little bit . It is one user frendily scooter.. There is little if any fault with this scooter, too--It is a good choice she did see a Vino she liked the looks of better-- but I think it is 2-300 bucks more for same 50cc motor size. I would be amazed if anyone had any negitive surprises with this scooter.
What sort of speeds is your wife seeing on the Met?
35+ on slight down hill , 25 on up hill, I'm seeeing 28-33 mph on flats
Assume your referring to the PCX, & not the Met...........:eek1

Former Wollongong Hawks mentor Brendan Joyce will coach the new Gold Coast franchise for the 2007/08 NBL season.
The yet-to-be-named club said today Joyce would take up a "multi-year contract".
Gold Coast director Dave Claxton said the appointment of the Australian Boomers assistant coach was a big boost for the club's inaugural season.
"Brendan's NBL record speaks for itself, having coached the Hawks to a championship in 2001, two grand finals and seven final fours in his 12 years with the club," Claxton said.
"The Gold Coast board was unanimous in its decision to actively seek out the services of Brendan.
"His experience as an NBL coach and passion for the game will play a crucial role in putting together a winning combination for the club."
Joyce said he was excited about being given a fresh opportunity to take the reins at the Gold Coast after Wollongong sacked him last month.
The Hawks board claimed he failed to curb what it labelled "unsatisfactory behaviour and offensive language" while standing courtside during matches.
"I've always loved the Gold Coast lifestyle and to be working with management staff who are so energetic and passionate about building a successful team in the region, life as a coach doesn't really get any better," Joyce said.
"The biggest plus for me is that there's a clean slate to work from.
"Everything from naming the team and partnering with sponsors to deciding on who'll be taking the court in game one is yet to be decided, so the role of coach will take on a new meaning for me."
The fans will vote to decide the Gold Coast club's name on the website www.gameongc.com.au from a list of four choices - Heat, Waves, Flyers and Marlins - or they can submit their own suggestion.
The most popular choice will be announced in mid-February.
The new team will play its home games at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre from September.

Top-ranked recipe named "Bicardi Rum Cake"
This is such a delicious, easy and crowd pleasing cake. The flavors meld well after a day or two and it freezes very well so is a great make-ahead to have on hand for unexpected company, but I bet it won't last long enough.
"I've made alot of good rum cakes. This one is the BEST! I love the
richness from the milk. I've also tried making this with butterscotch pudding. It boosts the flavor even more. It doesn't read as butterscoth, just richer. And it adds a nice color. My husband says it makes it taste more "golden". I cut the sugar in the glaze a bit. But only because I love the bite of
good rum. Thanks for sharing!!! "
Cake: Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease and flour 12-cup Bundt pan. Sprinkle nuts on bottom of pan. Combine all cake ingredients. Beat for 2 minutes on high with electric mixer. Pour into prepared pan. Bake for 1 hour. Cool in pan. Invert on serving plate. Prick top with fork. Drizzle glaze over top of cake. Use brush or spoon to put extra dripping back on cake.
Glaze: Melt butter in saucepan. Stir in water and sugar. Boil 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in rum. Note: The rum will cause steam. Be careful not to burn yourself.

I wrote skeptically a few weeks ago about claims by certain ex-Mormons that Latter-day Saint celebrations of "Smithmas" — Joseph Smith's birthday, on 23 December — overshadow if indeed they don't altogether dwarf Latter-day Saint observance of Christmas.
Well, today is 23 December. Joseph Smith's birthday.
I attended sacrament meeting this morning in a ward located in the region of greater Orlando, Florida. I decided to take notes on it in order to draw up an account of the degree to which Joseph Smith's birthday supplanted references to the nativity of Jesus Christ.
It wasn't even close.
I don't believe that I heard the name of Joseph Smith mentioned during the entire service. Not a single time.
When we entered the chapel, instrumental Christmas music — of the kind that ordinary Christians of even the most nominal sort would instantly recognize — was being played, with bells, organ, and piano.
Then the congregation sang "O Come, All Ye Faithful":
Oh, come, all ye faithful,
Joyful and triumphant!
Oh, come ye, oh, come ye to Bethlehem;
Come and behold him,
Born the king of angels:
Oh, come, let us adore him,
Oh, come, let us adore him,
Oh, come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord.
Sing, choirs of angels,
Sing in exultation,
Sing, all ye citizens of heaven above!
Glory to God,
Glory in the highest:
Oh, come, let us adore him,
Oh, come, let us adore him,
Oh, come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord.
Yea, Lord, we greet thee,
Born this happy morning;
Jesus, to thee be glory given!
Word of the Father,
Now in flesh appearing!
Oh, come, let us adore him,
Oh, come, let us adore him,
Oh, come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord.
An invocation, pronounced (as all Latter-day Saint prayers are) in the name of Jesus Christ, formally opened the meeting.
Then the congregation sang "While of these emblems we partake," in order to prepare for the sacrament of the Lord's supper, the Mormon equivalent of communion:
While of these emblems we partake
In Jesus' name and for his sake,
Let us remember and be sure
Our hearts and hands are clean and pure.
For us the blood of Christ was shed;
For us on Calvary's cross he bled,
And thus dispelled the awful gloom
That else were this creation's doom.
The law was broken; Jesus died
That justice might be satisfied,
That man might not remain a slave
Of death, of hell, or of the grave,
But rise triumphant from the tomb,
And in eternal splendor bloom,
Freed from the pow'r of death and pain,
With Christ, the Lord, to rule and reign.
The priests first blessed the bread, with this prescribed prayer that is offered, in dozens of languages, around the world every week:
O God, the Eternal Father, we ask thee in the name of thy Son, Jesus Christ, to bless and sanctify this bread to the souls of all those who partake of it, that they may eat in remembrance of the body of thy Son, and witness unto thee, O God, the Eternal Father, that they are willing to take upon them the name of thy Son, and always remember him and keep his commandments which he has given them; that they may always have his Spirit to be with them. Amen.
After the bread was distributed to the congregation, they then blessed the water with another prescribed prayer that, like the one on the bread, is delivered every week in every Latter-day Saint sacrament service worldwide:
O God, the Eternal Father, we ask thee in the name of thy Son, Jesus Christ, to bless and sanctify this water to the souls of all those who drink of it, that they may do it in remembrance of the blood of thy Son, which was shed for them; that they may witness unto thee, O God, the Eternal Father, that they do always remember him, that they may have his Spirit to be with them. Amen.
Following the administration of the sacrament, a variety of Christmas musical numbers were presented, including "O Holy Night," "Away in a Manger," and (in Portuguese) "Silent Night," by a ward choir, a family group, a choir of young children, and a special group of young women.
Punctuating the musical numbers were a pair of talks on the theme of "What Christmas means to me," delivered by an older married couple from the congregation.
Finally, the ward choir and the congregation joined together to sing "Angels We Have Heard on High":
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains,
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains.
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heavenly song?
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Come to Bethlehem and see
Christ Whose birth the angels sing;
Come, adore on bended knee,
Christ the Lord, the newborn King.
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
A benediction, pronounced (as all Latter-day Saint prayers are) in the name of Jesus Christ, closed the meeting.
A couple of days ago, I saw a prediction on an militantly apostate message board that Mormons would gather in their chapels on Joseph Smith's birthday to celebrate the birth of the one they really worship.
The prediction was accurate. We did meet on Joseph Smith's birthday. It happens, this year, to have fallen on a Sunday, and we always meet on Sunday. And we did indeed celebrate the birth of the one we really worship.
But "Smithmas" is a lie. Nothing better can be said for it. Those who push the idea, in my experience, are people who know better. There is no small savor of depravity in so obviously false and dishonest an accusation.
Perhaps, someone wanting to cut the accusers some slack might suggest, the ward I attended was an outlier. Maybe Smithmas is more of a Utah thing.
Nope. Smithmas is a lie. I've been a Latter-day Saint for the entirety of my approximately four hundred and seventy-two years on earth, roughly half of them in Utah now, and I have never, ever, attended anything that could fairly be called a "Smithmas" service. (Incidentally, to our surprise, when we sat down in the chapel we found that a member of our Utah stake presidency was seated, with his wife and all of his kids and their spouses, in the row immediately ahead of us. I watched carefully for any indication of shock on his part or theirs at the distinct absence of Smith-worship in the meeting, but I couldn't detect a trace.)
I will say this, though: Today was Joseph Smith's birthday, and I'm grateful for his faithfulness and his service. He was a good man. More than that, he was a prophet of God and an apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ. Do I worship him? No. Of course not. But I respect him, I believe his claims, and I venerate his memory.
If that bothers his critics (and mine), so be it.
Posted from Kendall (Miami), Florida.

Open wide, please. Keeping a safe distance, this man is brushing the teeth of a hippopotamus at a wildlife reserve in Guangzhou, in Guangdong province, China. Hippos have 40 teeth, and with the only recorded bite measuring a colossal 8100 newtons, he can't be blamed for taking precautions.
The visible canines grow throughout the hippo's life, some reaching 50 centimetres in length. As the teeth don't yellow over time, such hippo ivory is popular with poachers, and used to be made into dentures – most famously for US president George Washington.
These ferocious fangs are used for fighting and for shearing off plants close to the ground. Hippo back teeth are often not seen, but these unsung heroes munch up the 40 kilograms or so of grass the animals can consume every night.
Hippopotamuses usually let eager fish and birds clean their teeth for them, but this one doesn't seem to be complaining about the human touch.

With the launch of Assassins Creed: Revelations less than a week away, Ubisoft have already announced the development of a fifth instalment to the series.
Ubisoft's CEO, Yves Guillemot, is reported as saying, "I have the pleasure to announce today that there will be another full-fledged Assassin's Creed title next year. It will be another major release, and we will be communicating more about it in the coming months."
Hopefully this means that with the close of Ezio's story in Revelations Ubisoft can move on to a whole new character in a different time period. While Ezio is loved by many fans, personally I'm relieved they are finally ready to move on.
I'm also really excited about the direction that this next game will take. Which time period they choose especially intrigues me, if they chose one at all. After all, with Desmond's assassin memories getting ever stronger maybe he will be the main plot figure this time round? Then again it would be really interesting to see the story taken to somewhere completely different, maybe Victorian England, Civil War America or even China during the fall of the Ming Dynasty.
There is so much potential for this game, I can't wait to see how it turns out.
The as-of-yet unnamed fifth Assassin's Creed game comes out during 2012. Assassin's Creed: Revelations comes out for PS3/Xbox 360 on November 15, 2011 and for PC on November 29, 2011.
Updates: There's a rumor going around that the title will be set in the American Revolution. Additional rumors point to a Wii U release as well as a release date (click here). The first image was leaked.

Album Summary
- Pascal Gallet (Piano)
Notes & Reviews:
This is the first modern recording of the complete solo piano by Jiolivet, the Concerto for piano and orchestra. It immerses us with happiness in Jolivet's orchestral colors.
Jolivet's Piano Sonata, composed in 1945 "in memory of Béla Bartok" serves as a tribute to the composer. However, those looking for obvious references to the Hungarian maestro will be disappointed, as there are no traditional folk airs or conspicuous quotations to be heard in this work that deliberately avoids all that is picturesque and illustrative.
American Record Guide, November/December 2013
The orchestra is faultless and Gallet is an astounding pianist, so if you want Jolivet, you'll be quite happy. As for me and my house, we will pass on it. Notes in English and French.

Getting Closer
2 Attachment(s)
The weather is trying not to cooperate with us. It seems like every other day we get a spot shower. We have 72 hrs up to this point. Work on hte oven starts when we get home from work and goes till dark. Clean up always invloves a cold one to replenish the fluids. We put in the 3rd to last course last night and over the weekend layed out the front and started laying bricks once a course is done. We don't want to sit around and waste time. This has really become an obsession (good one). I bet if there was a WFOBA (Wood Fired Oven Builders Annonymous) there would be lines out the door. It is really a lot of fun. The one thing we don't want to do when we finish the dome is to rush the curing process. After this obsession the best one is still to come......eating.
Re: Getting Closer
Looking good! You will be eating in no time. You are right, don't rush the curing fires.
Also, you seem to have plenty of wood! That is quite an impressive collection of nicely cured wood in the background of your second photo!
Re: Getting Closer
Thank you. We have all seasoned oak. We are going to have a lottery to see which piece of wood gets the privilege of being the first.
Re: Getting Closer
I am in Connecticut as well, wondering where you get your oak wood from?
Re: Getting Closer
My brother and I built on lots that have nothing but oak and we kept it split and dry for evreytime we felled a tree.
we have enough to keep us in pizzas for a while. What you may want to do if you don't have your own source is ask around and see what freinds/family etc are cutting trees down and want it removed. It's cheaper if they get rid of the wood then haveing the tree surface do it. They can even have the tree service cut it in longer movable lengths, which would save them some money, and let you go in and cut it up the way you want.

perceptions of Microsoft and what makes it unattractive (or attractive)
to techs. Also, they are certainly interested in what techs don't like
about Linux. That sort of information would be potentially quite useful
to any PR campaign aimed at trying to maintain MS' dominant position in
the enterprise. Maybe they genuinely are trying to reinvent themselves,
or maybe they are just seeking advantage.
If you look for the very recent activities in some of the LUG lists
where Mr Surkan has been fishing, you'll see what might appear to be
some sort of campaign underway right now. The LUGOD vox list is just
one more place where this is happening. The timing is interesting, with
the steady (and recently spiking) advance of Linux into the desktop.
It is not disputable that MS wants to undermine Linux. The legal
avenues don't seem to be working out so far, the technical avenues are
even tougher, and so it seems like it might fall to PR to tackle the
I realize that MS could (and certainly does) fish for terminology and
concepts for their PR efforts in the mailing lists, and they do so
without identifying themselves as MS reps. Years ago, when I was
desperately underemployed, Intel once hired me to surf Usenet,
Compuserve, AOL, and the conferences on the WELL to gather intelligence
to help them manage a potentially big PR problem. I just surfed and
reported back to Intel what the discussion was about Intel. I didn't
feel that my spy work was evil, since the conversations were part of
the public space and they weren't after any persons. Intel used the
information to dodge a class-action lawsuit. MS has a different problem
with Linux but you can bet they are, as we say in Texas, "walking fast
and looking worried". Their business is threatened. This is a big deal.
MS has certainly gotten an earful about themselves and Linux just by
listening to the various discussions about it; certainly elsewhere, and
likely here. I do find it interesting, and perhaps significant, that
someone from MS has chosen to identify themselves as such and to ask
for "advice" from various LUGs. It's noteworthy that Mr Surkan has come
to the front door and identified himself as a MS rep. By doing so, he
will certainly hear different things about MS & Linux than if he was just
I'm open minded about Mr Surkan's bold contact, but I'm guarded. MS has
a bad rep for playing tricky hardball and they haven't earned my trust.

39 year old woman | Little Ferry, NJ, USA | Seeking men 29-49 within 200 miles
A born and bred Jersey girl, minus the high hair, who loves spending time with family and friends
A few random facts about me: I will watch Field of Dreams any time it's on television, from any point in the movie. I'm not afraid to stand up for myself. I will buy lemonade from any kids who are selling. Children's books with pictures make me smile. I'm fond of finding new and unusual things to do - I've taken a hot air balloon ride over Tuscany, been a spectator at a baseball game played by the rules of the 1890s, and learned to make balloon animals. I'm always on the lookout for something fun and not quite run-of-the-mill. I really enjoy doing things for other people, especially when I am in a relationship. Making you happy makes me happy. I definitely want children, and I look forward to teaching them and instilling them with good values. I'm looking for a man who is comfortable with who he is, can keep up his end in a conversation with my friends, and isn't intimidated by a strong woman. I need physical and intellectual attraction, but unfortunately, that changes with every person - I don't really have a "type." I suppose I'm really just looking for a good guy, who will be my friend and partner. As for the pets, it's not that I have no answer, but rather that I'm not really a pet person. I didn't grow up with pets and I don't really have any desire to have a pet. Unless it's a snake. I'd have a snake if I didn't need to feed it. I am not uncomfortable around most pets, and I have no allergies, I've just never had a reason to learn to love pets.

Middle of the Road
I really enjoy travel, but haven't done much of it yet. I find that the place isn't as important as the company, whether I'm around the corner or around the globe. Both in life and photography, I focus more on faces than on landscapes.
Penn State University Park, University Park, PA
I love to cook, read and knit. And a glass of wine with a couch and a good movie is always great. There's not much better than a live baseball or football game.
I love spending time with friends and family. I'm always searching for that activity that's slightly unusual and lots of fun. Many different things are exciting to me, whether it's sports, arts, volunteer work -- slightly off-beat is always great!
Not the last read - because that would change on a weekly basis, but one book I enjoyed was Crab Wars by William Sargeant. It wasn't a book I thought I'd like, which made it all that much more enjoyable to read. I read just about anything I can find

In today's money minded world, it is difficult to get happiness and achieve satisfaction. The common man is terribly disturbed by casteism, terrorism and riots. The life has become miserable because of partiality, politics and fraud. We are unable to believe the next second. What incident will take place the next moment is not guaranteed. Human beings have nearly become a machine; they have forgotten the basic aim of their life which is to be near and one with God. For this Sadguru Om Gurudev has given an easy way to human beings to reach Almighty and his divine message is "God lives in our heart and can be attained through meditation".
This divine message is now spreading all over the world the Ashram has nearly 151 centers in India and abroad. Devotional songs, prayers and sermons are always and everyday conducted in Ashram. Devotees from Poland, Malaysia, South Africa, Mauritius, Australia, France, Italy, Germany and America come to Ashram round the year and practice meditation in presence of His Holiness Param Pujya Vishwatmak Om Gurudev.
We arrange a ceremony in which number of marriages are arranged at a time under one roof to save the unnecessary expenses incurred during each individual marriage ceremony. We are also successful in irradiating the unethical and immoral practices like DAWRY. This typical marriage ceremony of all the cast and religions is in force since last 5 years and nearly 500 couples have taken the advantage of the said project.
To embed the educational values, social values, moral values and ethical values, we arrange various camps for the youths between age group 10 to 20.Campers are taught how to behave with the parents, elders, teachers and their juniors. What to eat ? How to behave in the school, college and society ? The campers are taught swimming, trekking, rappelling, nature conservation, yoga, games, martial arts and cultural activities. Cultural activities includes art and craft, dancing , music, drawing, painting, acting etc. Meditation and self realization is practiced in the company of saints by actual demonstrations.
We arrange meditation camps for adults in our meditation center. We teach them how to meditate and develop their concentration and decision making power. This camp is open for all caste, creeds and nation. Nearly one lac devotees had taken benefit of these camps. Foreigners have started visiting Ashram from 1991. Everyday nearly 40 foreigners from different countries like Malaysia, Poland, Australia, South Africa, Singapore, and Mauritius visit the Ashram. Most of them stay in vicinity of Ashram.
Free Food Center (Prasadalaya):-
As our place is the centre for meditation and other social activities, many devotees visit our holy Ashram every day. We serve balanced vegetarian diet to them. About 1500 devotees take Prasad (meal) everyday. On some special occasions like full moon day and Om Gurudevs Incarnation day about 5000 devotees take Prasad. The biggest and important celebration of the Ashram is Gurupournima, about 3,00,000 (Three lac) devotees take Prasad.
Afternoon - 1:00 P.M - 2:00 P.M.
Night - 8:00 P.M -9:00 P.M
Eradications of vices through spiritual meetings (Satsang):-
Today's young generation has become the victim of VICES like smoking cigar, bidi, chewing tobacco and addicted to various DRUGS resulting in spoiling their youth. Because of all these dirty habits. They usually fall sick and naturally they lose the real happiness of their life and reduce. The span of their life For this purpose highly qualified expert Doctors have offered their services for the welfare of the society. All the Saints take active part in this camp. The Govt. of Maharashtra had awarded us a medal recognizing our best work in this field.
Pilgrimage by special train & by Airways:-
For the common devotees Ashram arranges pilgrimage to various holy places like Haridwar, Badrinath - Kedarnath, Gangasagar, Kashi. Such pilgrimages are arranged at low cost which are affordable to common man at least for a period of two weeks every year. Om Gurudev's presence during entire pilgrimage is one of the greatest holy offerings (Prasad) for devotees and stimulates them to achieve self-realization. About 21500 devotees had taken benefit of such pilgrimage and had gained spiritual essence.
A magazine is published every month under the name OM GURUDEV to enable our devotees to get the correct knowledge and religious information about the spiritual world. We also furnish the information about the current events concerning with the Ashram functions.

I put in some long hours for The Man yesterday so I never got around to publishing this – so here's a rare Saturday post from Intelligently Defending.
Props to MMAjunkie and MMAmania where I found all of these stories.
1) UFC to induct two new members at UFC 100 Fan Expo
The most illegitimate Hall of Fame in professional sports will be adding two members in July.
Here are my early wagering lines on who is getting the nod:
- Evan Tanner — 1-1
- Charles "Mask" Lewis — 3-1
- Chuck Liddell — 6-1, I don't think he goes in until his retirement is official
- Matt Hughes – 10-1, Not sure he doesn't have another fight in him pending what happens with Serra
- John McCarthy – 30-1, I'm pretty sure he's currently on Dana's bad side which means we wont be seeing him in there anytime soon.
- Don Frye – 100-1, I love the old dog, but I don't see him ever getting in.
- Fred Ettish – 5,000-1
- Tito Ortiz – 1,000,000-1
2) Shaq is training MMA
Apparently, the big fella is training MMA:
I don't have anything to say about this, but figured it would give me the opportunity to post my all-time favorite Shaq video:
For the record, the 2002 Western Conference Finals was one of the most bad ass playoff series ever.
3) UFC releases a bunch of fighters
A number of UFC fighters were given pink slips over the past week, let's go through them one-by-one:
- David Loiseau – not very surprising given how soundly he was defeated by Ed Herman. He just never took his game to the next level – the Franklin fight can be pinpointed as start of his downward spiral. It's hard to recover from such an epic ass whooping.
- Ryo Chonan – the Japanses vet never impressed in his UFC fights. It's back to Japan where he can probably still make a nice pay day.
- David Bielkheden – he was pretty highly touted when he came into the UFC, but never lived up to the hype.
- Jason MacDonald – I'm very upset about this one. Jason was always an exciting fighter and most of his losses were to top competition. He just needs a few wins outside the UFC and then they will be happy to bring him back I imagine.
- Jason Day – defeating Alan Belcher was the only thing of note he accomplished inside the Octagon.
- Vinny Magalhaes – one of the best BJJ players around, but he cant take a punch to save his life and seems to lack heart. He's still very new to the game though so we could see him again if he is able to put some wins together.
- Antonio Mendes – I liked his fight with Thiago Silva – that's really all I got to say.
That's it – see everyone Monday.

Sara is a 5'0″, 110 lbs brunette with some of the perkiest tits you have ever seen! She is absolutely thrilled to be getting filmed, and you can tell just how much she is enjoying it by the amount of dirty talk she does for the camera.
After she teases for a little bit, slowly unveiling her glorious breasts, and pulling her thong over her curvacious ass. She makes direct eye contact with the camera as she starts moving her lips lower and lower until she has them all over a rock hard cock. She keeps teasing with her moist lips, peeking her tongue out between them just enough to wet the tip of the head. After a little more dirty talk, she keeps those big brown eyes focused, and starts taking a mouthful of cock, slamming inch after inch into her wet mouth. She sucks like a pro, almost ending the video a little early at times, lol. Luckily, she does not, and her soaking wet pussy could not be more thankful. She backs her ass up on the dick and starts sliding it in.
She takes turns between bouncing her ass up and down, riding the hard cock, and various other positions. After a gushing cumshot, she takes the time to lick up any remnants and swallow it down. Be sure to swing by the site and join for the full HD Pictures and Video…

Unfortunately the guide itself is too long for me to reprint here (sorry, those of you at work, you'll just have to come back and visit us this weekend), but it provides some general tips for making sure the "loot drops." Jahan has set up a strategy where, when pulling women in groups of 2 or more, the offtank is able to take aggro on the trash mob, leaving the main tank to engage the primary target. A rogue may come for larger groups, and his strategy is to, if possible, pull the secondary boss off, vanish away in his separate car, and collect his own loot drop. If you know what we mean.
And after the bar instance has been run, Jahan has another guide: How to Date, WoW Style. It covers such topics as buffs necessary for the dating encounter (I can personally recommend the Just Paid and Old Spice buffs), and what to do to get through the Restaurant Phase, the Movie Phase, and the all-important last 20% (you'll want to pour on DPS, but watch that aggro).
Both guides are great stuff. Can't wait to see his next guide on Heroic Mode dating, which I'm guessing involves a special ring just to get attuned.

The Wild City, an online portal for alternative music and art lovers across the world covered a story on India beyond coal. The popular alternative music magazine put out a call for artists across India to take initiative and use their creative skills in building awareness about the dangers of coal and encourage the use of renewable alternatives. Here is a cross post:
One of the dirtiest fuels on the planet, coal provides 66% of India's electricity, meeting more than 50% of our primary energy needs. Many argue that India's continued dependence on coal stems from the fact that it is cheaper than other alternatives, yet if recent figures are to be believed, the last few years has seen a rise in the cost of coal based energy whilst that of renewable (solar/wind) has come down dramatically. Wind based energy is already on par and in some places cheaper than coal.
Opposition from locals led by Ramesh Agarwal against Jindal Steel & Power Limited's highly polluting coal industries got him shot; highly inefficient grids and peak load mismanagement on coal generated power put 600 million Indians in darkness.
"Our dependence on coal is powering us towards more troubles than we had imagined and India is now at a crossroads. It is our choice of energy sources that will shape our future."
Out in the village of Lakshmikantapur, West Bengal, a company called ONergy has brought decentralised solar energy to homes that otherwise suffer from day long power cuts. In Karnataka and Gujarat, SELCO has introduced over 1.35 lakh solar home lighting systems for poor rural households whilst in Uttar Pradesh, Mera Gao Power is bringing micro lighting solutions to homes across the state. These initiatives show us how decentralised, renewable energy solutions are beginning to bridge the supply gap – without the blackouts, deforestation or violence.
Rooted from this very idea, 350.org, an international environmental organisation has launched a campaign calledIndia Beyond Coal. A movement which aims to mobilise thousands around this theme, in order to direct demands at policy developers and politicians.
On November 10, the campaign will culminate in a national day of action in which thousands of people will organise protests through the length and breadth of the country with the single unified message of moving India beyond coal. With over hundred actions being planned across the country, the day aims to generate support against coal, creating a big push for renewable energy.
"350.org, along with its partners encourages everybody to participate in this campaign. You can register an action with India Beyond Coal and make November 10 a watershed moment for India that inspires the change we wish to see" – 350.org
Artists across India have already been enlisted to amplify impact, contributing original music and visual art. The day will also see some of these artists perform with theatre groups, traditional dance troupes and hip-hop crews. So far musicians such as Jatin Puri (listen here), Unconventional Science, MC A-List (listen here), Delhi Sultanate and Chris McGuinness have contributed tracks, which will hosted on the India Beyond Coal Blog.
350.org provides an online platform for organisers to register and mobilise actions. To make your voice heard you can register an action for Nov 10 by logging on to Indiabeyondcoal.org. To be linked with active groups for the date or to share music email can can email email@example.com

N.N.N.N. / Study # 3
Choreographies by William Forsythe
»N.N.N.N.« appears as a mind in four parts, four men in a state of constant, tacit connection. Underscored by the sudden murmured flashes of Thom Willems music, the men enter into a complex, intense inscription. Their arms, heads, bodies and legs become singular voices, each tuned and in counterpoint to the other. The men write out a text of the voice of the body, slowly, then more and more rapidly, coalescing over and over into a linked entity of flinging arms, folding joints and a sharp, high sense of time.
Puccini's opera ›Madama Butterfly‹, derided at its La Scala premiere for perceived reliances on motifs from his other works, underwent minor changes and was received with great acclaim at its subsequent premiere at the Teatro Grande in Brescia. In creating »Study # 3« at the same theater, Forsythe reflected on both the relevance of the venue and coincidental parallels between Puccini's opera and his own works. The resulting re-presentation of vocal and motion elements drawn from across 30 years of Forsythe's repertoire allows a newly counterpointed kinetic opera to emerge from within contexts that are simultaneously foreign and familiar.
In cooperation with the Teatro Grande, Brescia.

I've started trying to keep a big bowl of salad mix in the fridge at all times. I submitted a "recipe" for it (look for "my ready-to-go salad mix"), but there's no end to the tweeking possibilities.
It is good to eat up to 10 g. of protein within 30 min. If working out. My favorite way to do that is to eat low calorie string cheese. It has 9g of protein and is not only low in calories, it is portable in your workout bag and helps cool you down. I also use it to get in sufficient calcium during the day and no carbs involved.4
have a peppermint candy it curbs the appetite!
I have always found it easier to lose weight when I make the healthy option easier than the unhealthy. Everybody wants a quick meal so they turn to drive-through and microwavable dinners/lunches. I found the easiest way for me to lose weight is prepare healthy foods once a week and put them in front of the refrigerator. Whenever I am in a hurry looking for a bite to eat, I have healthy meals and snacks faster than I would have something filled with fat!
