Yeah, I'm actually quite disappointed in you. I thought you would have used all that time to catch up! Tsk.
To hell and back!
This triumphant return was worth every minute, though.
Since I can now scrobble from Spotify (this sounds geeky already), I'm now back on last.fm. I have also tried to resurrect 'Ed Loves Stats'. Give it a shot and spread the word.

Dublin to get on its bike and ban carsPublished at 12:01AM, June 27 2015
Council expected to approve a €150 million project in which taxis and private cars could be excluded from three main streets in the capital
The father of a Times journalist who was seriously injured while cycling to work has said that he is thankful that his daughter's ordeal has helped to save other cyclists' lives.
Peter Bowers's praise of the Times cycle safety campaign came as the lorry driver who hit Mary Bowers was acquitted by a jury of dangerous driving.
Petre Beiu, 40, who had admitted not paying close attention to his mirrors and who had been speaking on his mobile phone when the incident happened on November 4 last year, was convicted of the lesser charge of careless driving and given a £2,700 fine and an eight-month driving ban.
Mr Bowers described the verdict as an insult.
His wife Elizabeth, Ms Bowers's stepmother, asked whether "that's what Mary's life was worth".
Ms Bowers, 28, is "minimally conscious" more than a year after the incident and, according to her family, will require 24-hour care for the rest of her life. Her father said that it was "almost certain that she will not regain much more in terms of what happened to her brain".
"It's not like if Mary had been killed on November 4," he said. "I would go through a cycle of bereavement and eventually come to terms with it. Something like this, there will never be closure because Mary will always be there and I will always be conscious of her suffering."
Mr Bowers spoke of his desolation on returning from visits to his daughter, who he said had always overachieved.
His wife said: "She is an exceptional young woman and it is such a terrible, terrible loss. It's the loss of potential. She was so bright, she had such a social conscience, so talented, so many friends."
"That's what makes me so sad," her husband added. "I can't imagine what's going on in her mind. Such a terrible thing to happen to anybody but for Mary it must be absolutely unbearable. Every time you go and see Mary it just hammers home what she has been through and the sense of loss."
He said that one of the few positives to be drawn from the year was The Times' Cities Fit for Cycling campaign. "I do think from time to time that if this hadn't happened, that campaign would not have gone forward and lives would have been lost that perhaps haven't been lost and accidents like Mary's would have happened that haven't happened now," he said.
Ms Bowers's sister, Laura Fawcett, said that the birth of her first daughter, Aahana, in September had been a glimmer of hope amid the trauma.
"The past year has shown us the real extremes of life," she said. "Going through possibly the worst thing that could have happened and the aftermath: the waiting, the stress of hoping that she will be OK, calling up everyday to find out if her heart rate is all right, when she is having her next operation, why there are delays. All that carried on for weeks and months.
"And then finding out I was pregnant meant I had to hold together these two extremes of emotion. It shows just how dreadfully sad life can be, but that there is a glimmer of hope."
Despite his anger at yesterday's dangerous-driving acquittal, Mr Bowers shook the hand of Beiu, a Romanian national, as he left the court.
"There are no winners in this," Mr Bowers said. "We are suffering. I am sure that the lorry driver agonises over this. In time I would like to forgive. I do sympathise, although when I do visit my daughter that evaporates rapidly."
Outside the court, Beiu said that he was devastated by the incident. "I will regret it for the rest of my life. I will never drive lorries again," he said.
At Snaresbrook Crown Court yesterday, after a five-day trial, jurors took just over an hour to acquit Beiu of dangerous driving.
During legal discussions, the judge had made clear that a guilty verdict would result in a custodial sentence.
After the jury verdict, the judge said that her "hands were tied" over sentencing, adding: "The irony is Mary Bowers has barely recovered but had she not survived, the situation would be very different."
Causing death by dangerous driving carries a maximum 14-year sentence whereas causing death by careless driving carries a maximum five-year sentence. There is no custodial option for careless driving.
"Sometimes Ms Bowers's eyes open when her family and friends visit but they don't know if she recognised them," the judge told Beiu. "They consider she has lost her life and they have lost her. Mary and her family will live with the consequences of this for the rest of their lives."
Cycling organisations criticised the verdict. Martin Gibbs, policy director at British Cycling, said: "Once again the justice system failed us." He added: "These failures send completely the wrong message about how we expect people to behave on our roads."

21 Outrageous Organic Recipes: Veggie Burgers
Store bought veggie burgers are an easy 'go-to' meatless meal when you're in a hurry and want to put something warm and comforting on the dinner table, but making your own at home is quick and easy. You'll also be using cleaner, fresher ingredients with these organic recipes. And in the end you'll save some money too!
You can prepare any of these organic recipes ahead of time and freeze them for later use, making them super-convenient. Just lay the patties (raw or cooked) in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze for about 60-90 minutes. Once they're frozen you can stack the patties with parchment paper in between each patty and freeze in a ziploc bag for later use. Uncooked patties should be defrosted in the refrigerator before cooking.
I've gathered a collection of my favorite organic recipes for veggie burgers from some of the best food bloggers and compiled them in the list below.

I Got Kohlrabi In My CSA Box – Now What Do I Do With It?
I've been a regular farmer's market shopper for years now and I always enjoyed picking and choosing what looked the best each week at my favorite farmer's market. I'd been tempted to join a CSA over the years but resisted because I wanted to choose every single fruit and veggie myself.This year, when one of my favorite local farms opened up their CSA for the year, I decided to give it a try.
Since I've never met a vegetable I didn't like, I figured it would be fun to see what comes in my box every week. For the most part that has been the case each and every week but in the last few weeks I've been getting this purple knobby bulbous vegetable called Kohlrabi that I have almost no experience with. All I knew to do with it is shred it and put it in salads. Its crunchy and little sweet and its great in salads but when I came home from my CSA pickup yesterday with another kohlrabi bulb and realize that last week's was still in the fridge, I figured I needed to find another way to use it.
After searching on recipes and finding a lot for shredded kohrabi (apparently its the most common way people are eating this alien looking vegetable), I noticed a few for carrot kohlrabi soup so I decided to make up my own recipe with what I had in my fridge. It came out delicious!
Kohlrabi Carrot Soup
2 bulbs Kohlrabi
6-7 Carrots
1 medium Sweet Onion
32oz Organic Vegetable Broth
1 TBSP Organic Butter (or to make vegan, use Organic Coconut Oil)
Salt & Pepper to taste
Chop the onion and saute in butter or coconut oil until tender. While that is cooking, peel the outer portion of the kohlrabi and roughly chop it. Roughly chop the carrots (I don't peel carrots, just use a vegetable brush on them). Add the carrots and kohlrabi to the pot and saute for about 10 minutes. Add the vegetable broth and cook for 20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. At this point you can transfer everything to a blender or food processor or use an immersion blender and puree until smooth. If you want a thicker consistency, continue to cook the pureed soup until it is the thickness you like. Add salt and pepper to taste.
I garnished mine with the greens from the kohlrabi. If your kohlrabi has greens, chop them into pretty small pieces and saute in butter or coconut oil until tender then add some to the top of each bowl of soup.

11 Tips For Non-GMO Shopping On A Budget
Do you want to learn the best ways to go Non-GMO shopping, even on a budget? Even though the vast majority of processed foods found in supermarkets today contain GMO's, it really isn't that difficult to maintain a Non-GMO diet when you know what to look for. Eating whole, unprocessed, organic food is an easy way to do it; here are some more tips for Non-GMO shopping, especially for those of us on a strict food budget.
11 Tips For Non-GMO Shopping:
Look for products that are USDA Certified Organic. Organic is the gold standard. By choosing organic foods not only will you be sure that those foods are non-gmo, they will also be free of pesticides, herbicides and other nasty chemicals.
Look for products that are Non-GMO Project Verified. While you won't know for sure if there are pesticide residue in the food, you'll at least know that foods with the Non-GMO Project Verified logo on them are GMO free.
If you see corn, soy, or canola oil on an ingredient label and that product is not organic or labelled non-gmo, assume it is GMO and avoid it.
Learn the list of ingredients that are derived from corn and soy. Click HERE for a great guide to these ingredients.
Buy whole food ingredients, instead processed foods.
Learn to cook from scratch. For families on a tight food budget, cooking at home can save quite a bit of money. Remember to make double batches and freeze meals for those busy nights.
Buy your groceries at health food stores, natural markets or online at stores that disclose the GMO status of products. Ordering online at shopOrganic assures you that you will not be buying any GMO products.
Find your local farmer's markets and talk to the farmers about how they grow their foods. Buying local food in season is the best way to get the most value and nutrition from your food while supporting your local growers.
Stock up when foods are on sale – food storage can be a great way to make your dollars go further.
Learn how to use every part of your fruits and vegetables. Freezing bits and pieces of veggies to make a vegetable broth is a good way to make sure that nothing goes to waste. Compost any truly unusable bits of your fruits and veggies to use in your garden. And speaking of gardens:
- Start a garden – it can be small and simply include a few vegetables that you eat regularly. Make sure to start with organic seeds; carrots and radishes grow quickly and easily, or try lettuce or other greens, or herbs in a pot.

General Mills Buys Annie's Homegrown; shopOrganic Offers Alternatives
If you haven't heard the buzz yet, General Mills has purchased Annie's Homegrown/Annie's Naturals. While they promise that their ingredients won't change and their commitment to using non-gmo ingredients is as strong as ever, they have allied themselves on the pro GMO side by default.
General Mills may be looking to take advantage of the increase in sales of organic products, but savvy organic consumers are turning away from Annie's, now that they have been purchased.
With a commitment to not carry any brands whose parent company donates to oppose GMO labeling, shopOrganic will no longer be selling Annie's Homegrown or Annie's Naturals products. We are moving out the remainder of the inventory that we already purchased pre-aquisition and that will be it for our relationship with Annie's. We believe in putting our money where our mouth is and we believe that consumers have the power to shape our economy. Let's shape it toward organic producers who still believe in the spirit of organic.
I know that many families rely on Annie's products to feed their kids foods that are familiar, that are fun and that they like to eat. We'd like to suggest some alternatives for you to choose from.

Pet Dental Health – Top 5 Tips + Products That Help
As with humans, good dental hygiene in pets is linked directly to good health. While pet dental health has only become a focus of care in the past decade or so, it's clear that taking care of your pet's dental needs in a preventive manner is much less costly and far better for your pet's overall health. With that, let's look at our top five pet dental health tips and a few products that might make your life as your pet's dental hygienist a bit easier!
It's often wise to take your pet for a checkup with your vet for a baseline on their tooth and gum health then create a plan for improvement (if needed). Your vet can tell you what to look for in your pet – dental health is partially related for overall health and partly tied to genetics, just like humans. So, get an idea of current status then use these tips to improve your pet's dental health over time. Our four-legged friends can't tell us when they have dental problems, so keep an eye out for changes to gum color or tongue, changes in eating habits or appetite. Beyond that, try these tips to keep Fido or Fluffy in great health!
1. Healthy Diet
Clean food is key to good dental health. Be sure to feed your pets clean, organic food appropriate for their age and activity levels. Fresh veggies can be great low calorie treats and add to your pet's nutritional health. My dog loves raw carrots, apples and cucumbers and they sure make her breath sweet.
2. Clean, fresh water
Make sure you provide your pet with clean, fresh water daily. It's vital to their overall health. Clean water every day (more often if your dog is like mine and drops her filthy tennis ball in the bowl). If you leave your dog outside in a yard at times, ensure there's water outside as well. Even in winter, the dry weather can dehydrate your pet quickly.
3. Appropriate chew treats
Treats that your dog will chew on help clean teeth and scrape tartar off at the same time. According to the ASPCA,' chew toys can satisfy your dog's natural desire to chomp, while making teeth strong. Gnawing on a chew toy can also help massage gums and help keep teeth clean by scraping away soft tartar. Toxin-free rawhide, nylon and rubber chew toys are best. Gnawing also reduces your dog's overall stress level, prevents boredom and provides an appropriate outlet for the natural need to chew. '
4. Do A Sniff Test
Your dog's breath should smell, well, like a dog (and your cat's like a cat) – but it shouldn't be so horrible that it makes you faint. A health dog (or cat)'s mouth shouldn't stink. A strong, foul odor is a sign of gum disease or an infection, both of which can be harmful if left untreated. Your pet's gums should be pinkish, not white and not red. Check frequently so you know what 'normal' is for your pet then you'll be able to spot changes and consult with your vet, as needed. Dark spots, bumps and other irregularities should be noted and monitors. Some dogs and cats have speckled interiors, so you should learn what 'normal' looks like and ask your vet if you see something new, different or concerning.
5. Brush Your Dog's Teeth…If You Can
Sometimes it's easier said than done. If you train your dog from a young age to tolerate your finger (and then a toothbrush) in its mouth, you may be able to brush its teeth. If you adopt an older dog who won't tolerate it, use chews and treats that have a similar effect. My 10 year old Border Collie (adopted at the tender age of 9…) won't bite when I brush, but some nights it's a three-ring circus getting to the brushing. I use chews that are intended to clean her teeth and it's a good compromise – brush sometimes, chew others.

Top Seven Essential Oils For Improved Mood & More
We all know that certain aromas will invoke particular feelings. Like the warm comforting smell of fresh baked cookies making you feel good, scent is a powerful way to affect mood. Using essential oils to affect your mood – whether for relaxation, energizing or other effects – is highly effective and simple to do.
Our olfactory system contains 50 million smell receptors in the nasal cavity and is part of the brain's limbic system, also known as the "emotional brain". Smelling a certain scent can create a powerful response almost instantly. Because essential oils evaporate quickly, their molecules are easily inhaled. The inhalation of the naturally occurring synergistic chemicals in essential oils provide triggers to our brain which effect our emotional state.
There are certain essential oils that I go to more frequently than others – for mood elevation, for relaxation, or for focus. Below I've listed some of my favorites along with how to use them:
Seven Essential Oils For Improved Mood & More
1 – Bergamot – a very calming essential oil, it can be applied topically, inhaled directly or used in a diffuser. With a sweet citrus scent, Bergamot is helpful for both depression and anxiety, producing calming and uplifting feelings. Note: This oil is sensitive to direct sunlight. If you apply it to your skin, wait 24 hours before exposing that skin to sunlight.
2 – Chamomile - this deep, rich, herbaceous scent is helpful for dispelling anger and irritability, clearing the mind and bringing stability to emotions. Diffuse it or inhale it directly from the bottle. It can be used topically for inflamed skin, to ease arthritis, headaches, sprains and muscle aches.
3 – Geranium – this sweet, fresh, flowery scent helps relieve tension and stress. Can be used topically to relieve acne and oily skin.
4 – Lavender- possibly the most popular essential oil, Lavender can both relax and uplift, depending on what you need at the time. Beneficial for anxiety, depression, irritability, panic attacks and reducing stress. It is relaxing yet keeps you alert at the same time. Lavender can also be used topically for cuts, burns, bug bits and stings.
5 – Sweet Orange - this sweet citrusy essential oil is a powerful anti-depressant. Add a few drops to a a spray bottle with water, shake and spray a room to instantly freshen and brighten the room. This essential oil is also antiseptic and anti-inflammatory which makes it a good for swollen gums – just add a couple of drops to warm salt water and swish in the mouth for relief.
6 – Rosemary – invigorating, stimulating and refreshing, this essential oil is beneficial for memory and concentration. Got a big exam or presentation coming up? Use Rosemary while you study or prepare then use it again the day of your event and your sense memory will kick in and give you an extra boost. Also great for staying alert during long drives. Used topically, Rosemary is good for respiratory issues, arthritis and improving circulation.
7 – Clary Sage – this essential oil helps ease fear and anxiety, as well as grief, exhaustion and burnout. During menopause, clary sage can help reduce hot flashes, night sweats, palpitations, irritability, as well as headaches and dizziness. Use topically for PMS symptoms and cramps.
Because essential oils are very potent in their pure form, most essential oils should be blended with a carrier oil, like almond, sesame or jojoba oil, before using topically. For inhaling, essential oils can be sniffed directly from the bottle or you can place a few drops on a tissue or cloth. For help with relaxation and sleep, you can place a few drops on your pillowcase. To diffuse a scent throughout a room, you can use an aromatherapy diffuser or add a few drops to a water spray bottle and spritz whenever you need it.
Essential oils can be blended together in a synergistic way to create even more powerful combinations. I highly recommend the book The Complete Book of Essential Oils and Aromatherapy: Over 600 Natural, Non-Toxic and Fragrant Recipes to Create Health Beauty a Safe Home Environment for more an in depth resource guide to creating your own blends.
Since essential oils are very powerful, be sure to check for any contraindications before using them, especially if you are pregnant. Also, make sure to use pure essential oils, not synthetic. Buying organic essential oils is the best choice so that you know you're getting a quality pure essential oil and not a synthetic chemical compound.

DIY: Naturally Dyed Easter Eggs
There are two ways to dye Easter eggs naturally; either boil raw eggs in the naturally colored water, or soak hard boiled eggs in the colored water overnight. The first way is faster if you're only using one or two colors but if you want to use a lot of different colors, its easier to make the colored soaking water and use smaller bowls to soak the hard boiled eggs in the refrigerator overnight.
To make the natural dyes, choose a natural ingredient from the list below. The quantity that you use will determine how dark the color is. Add distilled water and either cream of tartar or white vinegar to a non-aluminum pot. Use 1 TBSP cream of tartar or vinegar per cup of water. If you're using raw eggs, boil them in the colored water like you normally would to cook hard boiled eggs. You can then either remove the eggs or if you want them darker you can continue to soak them in the refrigerator.
If you're using hard boiled eggs, you can make batches of different colors, then use smaller bowls to soak the eggs overnight in the refrigerator. If the eggs don't come out as dark as you want the first time, you can make a darker colored soak water and let the eggs soak a second time.
Natural dyes are made with just a handful of ingredients. You'll need water, the natural material for coloring, and a mordant to help the colors penetrate the eggshell. The mordant can be cream of tartar or white vinegar.
Naturally Dyed Easter Eggs Instructions:
- Place the eggs in a single layer in a pan. Add water until the eggs are covered.
- Add vinegar or cream of tartar.
- Add the natural dye materials. Use more dye material for more eggs or for a more intense color.
- Bring water to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
- If you are happy with the color, remove the eggs from the liquid.
- For more intensely colored eggs, remove the eggs from the liquid. Strain the dye through a coffee filter or cheesecloth. Cover the eggs with the filtered dye and let them soak in the refrigerator overnight.
Here's a list of some herbs and spices you can use and the colors they yield:
Hibiscus flowers – Reddish blue/lavender
Turmeric root powder – Deep gold
Curry powder – Pale orange
Chili powder – Reddish brown
Paprika – Orange
Dill seed – Golden brown
Beet Juice – Pink
Coffee – Brown
Cranberry Juice – Pink
Red Cabbage Leaves – Blue
Onion Skins – Red or Yellow depending on the type of onion
Orange Peels – Pale Orange
Grape Juice – Lavender
Spinach Leaves – Green
Pomegranate Juice – Red

3 Vegan Recipes for the Great American Meatout
Have you seen the study that came out recently that found that eating meat and cheese is as unhealthy as smoking cigarettes? The study, published by the University of Southern California found that excessive protein consumption is linked to a dramatic rise in cancer mortality and that middle-aged people who eat lots of proteins from animal sources including meat, milk and cheese are also more susceptible to early death in general. While it's not necessary to go completely vegan to get the health benefits of eating less animal products, these vegan recipes will make it easier if that's your goal.
In honor of the Great American Meatout, I'm sharing three of my favorite vegan recipes. Since I eat a vegan diet and I love to cook, I've played with lots of vegan recipes to make them satisfying and delicious. The Great American Meatout encourages people to pledge to go vegan for a day, for one day per week, or every day. Reducing or eliminating your intake of meat and dairy is possibly one of the best things you can do for your health. When giving up meat and dairy, its still important to eat a whole food diet, so don't get sucked in to buying meat analogues – they're full of processed junk and you don't need them to make a satisfying meal. These vegan recipes will make you forget you ever needed meat and cheese.
Three Amazing Vegan Recipes
Vegan Recipe #1: Macaroni and Cheese
8oz organic dry pasta of your choice
1 1/2 cups raw cashews
3 TBSP fresh lemon juice
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup nutritional yeast
1/2 tsp chili powder
1 clove garlic
1/2 tsp turmeric
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp dry mustard powder
salt & fresh ground pepper to taste
Soak the raw cashews in filtered water for about an hour, then drain and add them along with the rest of the ingredients into a blender – a high powered blender like a VitaMix or Blendtec works best but a regular blender will do, you'll just need to blend for a longer amount of time. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. You can use any type of pasta you like: quinoa pasta, gluten free pasta, whole wheat pasta, semolina pasta. Elbow pasta or shells are traditionally used for mac and cheese but use whatever shape you like. When the pasta is done cooking, drain it and pour the sauce into the pot and heat through. You can serve the mac and cheese just like this or to make it even better, add some cooked broccoli, spinach, peas, mushrooms or any other veggies that you'd like.
Vegan Recipe #2: Three Bean Chili
1 TBSP Olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 bell pepper, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, minced
1 small onion, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
1 TBSP cumin powder
3 TBSP chili powder
1 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp cayenne
15oz can black beans
15oz can pinto peans
15oz can red kidney beans
28oz can diced tomatoes
2 tsp cocoa powder
1 TBSP chia seeds
In a large pot, heat the oil on medium heat. Add garlic, pepper, onion, carrot and sauté until everything is soft, 5-10 minutes. Add the rest of the ingredients and cover, simmering for about 30 minutes on medium heat. The chia will thicken the chili quite a bit so if you find that it is too thick, add a little bit of water.
Vegan Recipe #3: Meatballs
1 cup (packed) fresh spinach, chopped
1 cup vital wheat gluten
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
8 oz organic tempeh
1/3 cup nutritional yeast
3 large garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup tomato sauce
2 Tablespoons tomato paste
1 cup cooked hulled barley
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon dried fennel seed
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Chop the tempeh into small pieces; it should be crumbly. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the oil and garlic. When the garlic is aromatic, add the chopped spinach and a tablespoon of water. When the spinach is wilted, add the tempeh, stir to combine then add the tomato sauce, tomato paste and barley. Stir to combine then turn off the heat to let the mixture cool. In a bowl, mix together the vital wheat gluten, flour, nutritional yeast, salt, basil, oregano, dried pepper flakes and fennel. Add the tomato/spinach/tempeh mixture to the bowl. Stir to combine and knead for a couple of minutes. This helps the gluten keep the meatballs in a ball shape. Form 1 inch balls from the mixture; place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This makes about 35 meatballs. Bake for 15 minutes and then turn them over. Return to the oven and bake for another 15 minutes. Take them out of the oven and let them cool undisturbed for 5-10 minutes. This allows the inside of the meatball to become firm. At this point you can choose what to do with your meatballs. Add them to marinara, make a swedish meatball sauce, slice them thin and put on pizza, make spaghetti and meatballs, sliders, its up to you.

Try These 5 Healthy Green Smoothie Recipes
Every morning I drink a big green smoothie. It starts my day with lots of nutrition and I tend to stay on track when I start my day that way. Made right, green smoothies are great for kids and adults alike. You may need to start slowly on the greens, especially for kids, but once your taste buds get used to the green veggies, you can add more and more and more.
The basics of green smoothies are simple:
1 – Choose a dark leafy green vegetable. It's best to vary your choice from day to day so you can maximize the benefits. Choose from spinach, curly kale, lacinato kale, chard, collard greens, various lettuces and if you're adventurous, dandelion greens.
2 – Choose a liquid base. You can use coconut water, almond milk, hemp milk, or another dairy alternative. Even just plain water works fine.
3 – Add some fruit. I like frozen bananas but frozen blueberries, strawberries or other berries are a good addition. You can also use tropical fruits like mango and pineapple.
4 – Add boosters. These are things like hemp protein, flax, chia, maca, spirulina, bee pollen, goji berries and cacao powder.
If you have a powerful blender like a VitaMix or Blendtec, you can pile all of your ingredients in and everything will blend to a super smooth consistency. With a regular blender, you'll need to chop your fruits and veggies smaller and probably blend a little bit longer to make sure you don't have chunks.
Here are some of my favorite green smoothie recipes. I like my smoothies to be icy cold but if you don't, you can omit the ice cubes in the recipes and just add a little water instead:
Chocolate Malt Green Smoothie
I call this a 'chocolate malt' because maca has a malty flavor and blended with cacao powder, you can barely tell there's anything green in there!
2 cups collard greens
1 cup coconut water
1 frozen banana
1 tablespoon maca powder
1 tablespoon cacao powder
1 tablespoon soaked chia
4-6 ice cubes
Blend all ingredients together until you have a thick, rich, delicious smoothie.
Pina Colada Smoothie
Let pineapple and coconut transport you to the islands
2 cups spinach
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
2 cups frozen pineapple
2 tablespoons coconut flakes
3-4 ice cubes
Blend all except for the coconut flakes until smooth, then add the coconut flakes and blend again for another few seconds to incorporate.
PB&J Smoothie
A smoothie that tastes like pb&j? Yes, please!
2 cups spinach
2 cups unsweetened almond milk
1 cup frozen red grapes
¼ cup frozen blueberries
1 frozen banana
3 tablespoons almond butter
3-4 ice cubes
Blend all until smooth and enjoy.
Superfood Green Smoothie
With lots of added superfoods, this is a supercharged way to start your day.
2 cups lacinato kale
1 frozen banana
1 cup coconut water
1 tablespoon bee pollen
1 tablespoon raw cacao powder
1 tablespoon raw maca powder
1 tablespoon hemp protein powder
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1 teaspoon spirulina
4-6 ice cubes
Blend, drink, and be prepared for a high energy day.
Peachy Green Smoothie
This one is a bit more adventurous, as chard has a slightly stronger taste than other greens. You can also try using dandelion greens in place of the chard.
2 cups of rainbow or green chard leaves
½ cup frozen mango
¾ cup frozen peaches
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
4-6 ice cubes
Blend all ingredients until smooth and creamy.

Multifunction Printers the All-Season Solution for SMBs Gone are the days of office printers being little more than the paper-jamming, space-taking single-function boxes waiting to go wrong, while occasionally producing professional looking documents. Today's multifunction printers are of a different breed, serving as everything from the office copier, fax machine, digital scanner, photo printer, document management and electronic distribution centre. That's a big step forward. As printing needs have expanded, all in one printers have risen to the challenge, satisfying an increasing weight of the SMB's document-related requirements. 'SMBs have not only become their own print shops,' says Hill D'Souza, a partner at Mississauga, Ontario based PrinterLogix, a Canadian company specializing in HP managed print services. 'They've had to embrace the challenges of organization-wide document management systems, in a world where most companies produce thousands of documents each month.' 'How we print, what we print and what we do with our documents is now a dynamic, multi-layered business function. It's no longer about sitting at your desktop and sending a document to the printer,' says D'Souza. 'AIO printers regularly receive print jobs from USB's, wireless laptops and now cell phones. They're the information hubs that manage distribution and archiving, in addition to their basic function of providing high-quality printing services.' 'If you're not on top of the latest technologies, features and methods, it's a challenge to identify the all in one printer that will best serve a business,' he adds. 'There are variables, from the type of business you're in and the functions you depend on; printing volume, and the consumption of inks, toners and paper. That's all before you start looking at things like networking and administration, which can add significant efficiencies and savings of their own.' Hewlett Packard has had a consistent presence at the front of the printing pack. HP's range of multifunction devices has constantly evolved, demonstrating the company's ability to stay ahead of the innovation curve, while maintaining a reputation for robustness, user-friendliness and reliability. 'We see HP as the most flexible and complete total product offering,' comments D'Souza. 'With PrinterLogix, we focus exclusively on HP's OEM products because it gives us a deeper and more powerful appreciation of the product's functionality and features, and a quality guarantee that the customer can absolutely count on. It means we're able to optimize a business's print environment – and business performance by extension – because of that greater understanding backed by a quality product line.' When choosing the most appropriate MFP for a business, D'Souza encourages purchasing decision makers to study the nature of their business, and ensure that the solution reflects those same priorities. 'Too much functionality can sometimes compromise quality across the board, so give yourself some focus.' 'Where scanning and print resolution is clearly important if you're in a business that needs high quality reproduction of images or documents,' he continues, 'print speed and network connectivity where multiple users are involved can be a deal maker or breaker.' In a parting word of advice, Hill D'Souza rounds off: 'Look for the best fit for the business, and make sure you're in control of the environment and costs.'

As the mobile phone revolution brings video, photos and Web pages to our handsets, telecommunications experts from around the globe have been collaborating to develop standards to underpin third-generation phone systems. This book is an in-depth assessment of WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access), the main third-generation air interface. WCDMA will be deployed in Europe and Asia at the same frequency band, (around 2GigaHerz) and it is expected to spawn a whole host of new gadgets. It will allow mobile phone companies to launch an array of new services. The authors all work for Nokia, one of the companies leading the move to wideband communications, and as might be expected, this is a comprehensive assessment of the technology.
It explains how WCDMA differs from today's digital interfaces, its main features, the background to it becoming a global standard, and gives valuable advice on getting the best performance from 3G networks. It also examines other technologies which could be used to provide multimedia phone services, such as EDGE, the evolution of GSM for high data rates.
WCDMA for UMTS: Radio Access for Third Generation Mobile Communications is aimed at technology and communications students, technical people working for device manufacturers and service providers and frequency regulators. It includes a comprehensive glossary and lots of diagrams which should make it an invaluable desk reference for anyone working in the rapidly evolving telecoms world. --Shan Ni Ceallaigh

Kurt Rosenwinkel: Village Vanguard Bonus ContentSubmitted by jjackson on Thu, 2009-01-08 13:17
WBGO is presenting Kurt Rosenwinkel live at the Village Vanguard tonight. If you listen to the NPR Music Player before the show, you would discover this interview and solo performance I did with Kurt last year. You can also hear some of the content separately. Here's a random access sample of Kurt Rosenwinkel's digital music. Kurt also talked On the Record about some important sessions that he did NOT lead.
After the show is over, we'll be offering Kurt's Live at the Village Vanguard performance as a podcast. A pretty revolutionary and completely experimental concept for jazz, right? Our idea caught the attention of Toronto blogger Peter Hum, who wrote about tonight's show in Thriving on a Riff.
WBGO Hosts Share Their Love of Music and Sports on SportsJamSubmitted by ddoyle on Mon, 2008-10-06 17:33
Passionate is a word I would use to describe Rhonda Hamilton and Bob Porter's approach to jazz and blues. However, after playing a round of golf with Rhonda and her husband, drummer Michael Carvin, then sitting down with Bob to talk about his beloved Red Sox, both hosts may be even more crazy about their favorite sports.
Check out my SportsJam sessions with Rhonda and Bob here.
Tribute to Teo Macero - May 18th at NYUSubmitted by jjackson on Tue, 2008-05-13 00:28
Long before the digital era and its master manipulators - Brian Eno, J Dilla et al - producer Teo Macero was splicing analog reels from various Miles Davis sessions, creating the sonic tapestry of Miles' early electric style. The saxophonist, composer, and master of the razor blade will be remembered at a memorial service this Sunday, May 18 at NYU's Loewe Theatre, 35 West 4th Street, from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. The event is open to the public.
Macero spent his later years in semi-retirement, occasionally helping the NYU Jazz Program. He produced two CD's with the NYU Jazz Orchestra featuring his original compositions. Special guest soloists will join the NYU Jazz Orchestra for the memorial.
Eddie Lockjaw DavisSubmitted by jjackson on Sun, 2008-03-02 13:27
It's the birthday of tenor saxophone legend Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis. He was a pretty powerful presence in bands led by Cootie Williams, Lucky Millinder, Andy Kirk, Louis Armstrong, and Count Basie. He also led his own sessions, which included swing, bop, hard bop, Latin jazz, and soul jazz genres. Basically, Eddie Davis played a lot of music. Check out this video - Eddie plays Ray Noble's "Cherokee" with the Count Basie Orchestra.
Studio Session - Marcus Strickland's Twi-Life BandSubmitted by jjackson on Thu, 2008-01-17 17:45
We had a really killer performance and chat session with saxophonist Marcus Strickland and the Twi-Life Band. You can find the whole session, or individual songs, on the NPR Music site. Click here.
Make it a point to check out what some of the baddest young talent in jazz are doing. Not just online, but in the clubs. We have a ton of these sessions on the shelf, so expect more in the coming months. Guitarist Mike Moreno is next.

I use it everyday all day. I love that the scent does not go away and I only need to spray it once for me to smell good. Please keep on selling it in the stores because it is getting hard to find it lately. I have used this perfume since I was fifteen years old and I am fourty four years now. I would not change this perfume for the world.

I was full of excitement and anticipation when I ordered the product online because I was expecting the same scent of the original Calandre perfume. However, my excitement turned into disappointment because the Calandre did not smell as good as the original. It seems lacking the sensual smell that I remember so well and crave so much. I would like to return it but unsure how to go about it. It was delivered to me on Dec 22, 2013. I really love Calandre and will be grateful if I could get a bottle of the original version.

Comments about Paco Rabanne Calandre Perfume:
Of all the available perfumes on the market, my wife, who is particularly sensitive to aromas, with an acute sense of smell has been using Calandre for years - and is the only perfume she can wear. While the difficulty to find it has become greater over these past few years, it has been a treasure to find availability at Fragrance X. At one point it became unavailable, and I requested notice when it became available again. Fortunately, Fragrance X notified me of it availability, and at a very competitive price. My wife - and I - can now enjoy the wonderful fragrance of Calandre on those special occasions when she wears it.

"Made in PRC" means "made in the People's Republic of China." Historically, products manufactured in this nation bore the inscription "made in China." Beginning in 2013, the use of "made in PRC" is becoming ever more common on products manufactured in that Asian nation.Know More
Some import and export analysts suggest that China is making this change as means of improving its "brand." Some people perceive a label bearing "made in China" to be indicative of lower-quality or even counterfeit merchandise. China is a major manufacturer due to cheap labor costs and its generally lax regulatory environment when it comes to producing goods.Learn more about Maps & Cartography
The absolute location of a place is its exact set of coordinates on the planet, frequently expressed in degrees of longitude and latitude. In geography, absolute location is contrasted with relative location.Full Answer >
For those studying geography, the term relief refers to the horizontal and vertical dimensions of land surface, also known as terrain. This is particularly apparent on physical maps, which emphasize the relative height of the land with differences in color and shading for differences in height, often resembling three-dimensional surfaces, instead of emphasizing geographical boundaries of states and countries.Full Answer >
A star or star within a dot on a map usually means that it is the location of a capital city, whether in a state or a country. The star is typically located on the legend in one of the corners of the map to indicate the symbol's meaning.Full Answer >

34 year old woman | Port Orange, FL, USA | Seeking men 25-40 within 50 miles of Fort Lauderdale, FL
I am a fun loving, free spirited, loving, beautiful soul who's always trying to help out strangers. I treat other's how I want to be treated
I've traveled the world and have met many beautiful souls along the way, but just haven't connected with my soul mate yet. Could it be you? I'm 33yrs old and am looking to start a family, but refuse to just settle. I'm not desperate by any means, so if you actually take the time to read all of my profile and realize we won't be compatible, then please let's not waste one another's time. If your pictures aren't recent and you're trying to be the person you were 10yrs ago, please don't message me either. I want an honest man who isn't trying to be deceitful with his pictures. I am a very loving, loyal, honest, easy going, and caring person who is always trying to give back and help out the less fortunate. I spend a lot of my time volunteering and I beieve it is important to give back when you can. I do a lot of volunteer work such as feeding the homeless as well as sponsoring and helping some organizations in India, Sri Lanka, Africa, and Jordan that I have personally visited. When people do random acts of kindness this world becomes a better place. I don't mind making mistakes because I feel there is always a lesson to be learned. It's what makes me a better person. When one door closes, another always open. I embrace life to the fullest and always try to make the best of every situation. It is what I live by. I try to look at the positives in life and believe that everything happens for a reason. I also believe that "karma", or whatever word you want to call it, is real. What you give in life, you will get back in one way or another. I am a free spirited and very open minded individual...creative and artistic... I am always willing to help whomever and whenever if I can...putting forth my energy towards my inward journey, not only to become a better person each and everyday, but to help others around me along the way... "We cannot share with others what we do not have within" I try and spread love everywhere I go. I speak and smile to strangers always because you never know how it may brighten their day.I'm the girl who will stop and help the elderly put grocery bags in their car if they have too many bags or it may be too heavy for them. It brings me joy to see others smile. I strive for peace, love, patience, and happiness...clarity, wisdom, and understanding...hopefulness, forgivingness, and being at one with mother earth...mindful, aware, and non-judgemental...I am not into materialistic things or gadgets so please don't try to impress me with things you have. That is not important to me. What is important is your character. How you act when you think no one is looking. I'm interested in what your heart is like, not your car or house. I am looking for someone who has similar interests or just a loving heart to all. What is most important to me is what's inside and not your appearance. I am well traveled and have spent time in 50 or so countries. I've spent a year in India and many other times were spent in numerous countries. I currently came back from backpacking in Africa and am in the states again looking to test out the waters :) It would be nice to find a down to earth man that I'm compatible with and share the same interest. I use to play professional basketball in Europe until I tore my achilles tendon in 2010. I would say I am a hippie and just want this world to be one big family filled with love and peace. I am very spiritual, not religious. I believe religion causes war. I do believe in God, but I don't claim to belong to any one religion however, I was raised and grew up going to a Christian school most of my life. I believe that we must be accepting and respectful to all other faiths. I appreciate and am intrigued by the buddhist philosophy, but I feel I take a bit from all religions. My religion is LOVE.

The electronics industry is siding with Project Canvas.
Project Canvas, the IPTV platform, has received the support of around 40 manufacturers from the electronics industry, who have said they will support the project in any way they can.
The project has not been without controversy with Channel Five bowing out before returning to the project and more recently, Sky and Virgin Media claiming the project is anti-competitive.
The latest in the slew of contesting voices is United for Local Television (ULTV), a group made up of local TV operators in the UK, which has asked for an investigation of Project Canvas by Ofcom. It claims that Project Canvas will hurt the developement of small-scale UK TV services.

The IPTV platform has BBC, BT, ITV, Arqiva, TalkTalk, Channel 4 and Channel Five as partners and is due to release in 2011. Project Canvas, when launched, will offer video-on-demand, web-based content, and services over the internet direct to the TV.
