Malnourished With Cravings: Lessons Every Athlete Should Know
This is the first chapter of the "Foundations" PDF that science lab members get. The "Science Lab" is a service I offer for athletes that are looking to reach their body composition goals. The classes work in a similar fashion to the way our WOD's work, they are scheduled and our coaches walk you through what you need to do to achieve your optimal physique. It is free for most people buy simply purchasing items through our links on this site. For a list of our free options click here.
I: Malnourishment and Why a Lack of Nutrients is the Real Problem
(Click here to jump to a summary of this article)
What would you say if I told you that diets have it backwards; what if eating less was actually preventing you from losing weight and attaining your goals? What if the solution was not to eat less, but to eat more, and better? It may not make sense at first, judging from the prevalence of obesity in the United States and other developed nations, but most of us live in a state of malnourishment; we eat too much of the wrong kinds of food and we're just not getting enough of the right nutrients to function optimally or lose weight. This is the main reason our bodies send us confusing, nonsensical signals. When we eat a balanced diet composed of wholesome, nutrient dense foods (foods rich in vitamins, minerals and other micronutrients) we give our body what it needs and we are no longer hungry; we're no longer a slave to cravings. But the body's needs are ever changing – hour to hour and week to week. Eating the same food day in and day out at the same caloric intake sets your body up for deficiencies. You just can't supply everything you need with 5 foods, even if they are the most healthful foods in the world.
Nourishment is of course not the reality for most people because their diets are full of nutrient deficient foods. Instead of eating less, your new goal should be to eat in a manner that adds more to the body system than it takes away and helps balance your hormones naturally. Eating a bowl of cereal which touts '100%' the daily value of a rack of vitamins and minerals is all great in theory, except for the fact that your body can't absorb and put use to all that synthetically engineered 'nutrition'. Thus, you are left off worse than you started; this is where diets get it all wrong. The term "dieting" implies a level of restriction, and for anyone that has a teenager out there, you know that when you restrict someone from anything the consequences tend to be fairly catastrophic.
Cravings are a normal response; when you cut out foods from your nutrition that you've developed a mental attachment to, you'll miss them in the same way you'd miss a friend. On top of that, the foods you eat, no matter how processed, are still supplying your body with energy that it needs. Over time, they have literally become a part of your physiology, and when they're gone, it's as though a piece of you is missing. There are, however, alternatives to many of the foods we crave that will give us the nutrition we need without all of the chemicals, additives and guilt. Before we go any further and discuss how you can put this into action, we need to talk about some of the habits that make cravings worse. Here are a few messages drilled in our heads:
"Breakfast is the most important meal of the day!"
"Your body runs on sugar, so make sure you eat a lot of it all the time!"
"Just get something in your stomach and get that metabolism going!"
"Look, if you're serious about losing weight, the rules are simple. A whole grain breakfast is necessary."
We've all been told over and over again about breakfast and all its perks. Part of this is true; eating breakfast can be a great way to kick off your day, but it doesn't have to happen immediately after you wake up. Even more of a problem is that in the absence of a nutritionist who designs a meal plan for you (Actually, a lot of nutritionists preach this crap.), we go for the "ready now", pre-packaged convenience foods. Really, who has time these days? A cinnamon raisin bagel topped with low fat double whipped cream cheese and black coffee was my go-to, "choke-it-down", quick and easy breakfast. Heck, if the bagel has some heart healthy whole wheat in it, it's a win-win scenario, a healthy "breakfast of champions." I would typically eat this around 6 a.m. By 8:00, I was usually headed face-first into a bowl of oatmeal because the bagel didn't sate my appetite; I was ravenous. In fact, I was usually so hungry that I had to have two packets of oatmeal. It's a good thing oatmeal is full of fiber, because already the calories are starting to sort of pile up (if only I knew what I know…) and it's only half past eight! I would spend the rest of the morning figuring out how to eat a light, low calorie lunch. This double breakfast, "bottomless-pit-of-a-stomach" was the story of my life (or at least my mornings) for years. I was no daily gym junkie either, because ya know, "Who has the time or energy for that!?" I was already preoccupied with tallying off a light lunch after downing two breakfasts! It was all a big mental game.
If this scenario sounds familiar to you, then we have a lot to talk about, but first I want to clear this up: the aim of this blog is not to preach; my experience may not match up with yours and you're going to have to figure a lot of this out for yourself (With my help of course!). Think of it as though you're being taught to fish, rather than having somebody fish for you. There is no "best" way to eat for all people; in fact, the point of this collection of texts is to highlight that nutrient-dense, whole foods should make up the base of nutrition for everyone, from sedentary people to high-level athletes. No matter what your lifestyle, when you give your body what it needs and leave out the junk, you are less susceptible to cravings and you'll be able to listen to the messages your body is sending you. I'm a fairly athletic guy, so my body demands a bit more from me than yours might.
Here's what my breakfast looks like nowadays. It's important to note that I eat breakfast around noon rather than shoveling food into my mouth at 8 a.m.:
10 ounces of grass-fed rib eye in a little clarified butter and sea salt
4 fresh eggs
A raw kale and spinach salad with carrots and peppers, chopped macadamia nuts and a little olive oil
Can you see the difference between this first meal and the bagel and oatmeal from above? This meal provides real foods packed with real nutrients. A meal such as this carries a high degree of satiety; it leaves me feeling full and energetic. It gives me the ability to tackle the day without worrying about being hungry. If you are eating the bagel and oatmeal combo like I was, you are not providing your body with the quality and composition of fuel it needs to get going. It's akin to putting regular unleaded in a car that runs on super; the engine is going to go through hell. This is not an ode to a "Grass-fed Rib Eye Revolution Breakfast". It's just my experience. Your scenario may be completely different, but regardless of our differences, we all have the same basic requirement for nutrient-dense foods that provide us with energy and a sense of well-being. Many of those diet 'rules' you have heard and believe are just wrong. Small tweaks, like switching out the convenient, pre-made food for real, satisfying meals make a big difference.
I meet and talk with people every single day, and I can confidently say that I believe, by-and-large, that most folks are trying to do the right thing. People do care what they put into their body and would gladly eat steak and eggs with a spinach salad for breakfast if they only knew that it was okay. In terms of bang-for-your-buck, spinach and eggs won't render dramatic weight loss like caloric restriction will, which is why Charles Barkley can sell you Weight Watchers, but your natural instincts get ignored. Product marketing and convenience play a big role in how we eat and quick fixes are extremely attractive, especially when a celebrity is telling us how well it all works. As someone who lost sixty pounds in one year, I completely understand the motivation to lose weight as fast as possible, but if I had to do it all over again it would be a whole lot easier if I'd just listened to my body.
Why Caloric Restriction is The Wrong Approach
Let me make sure I'm clear: if you eat in an unrestricted way without respect for food choices, the consequences are obvious; you will get fat and you'll feel like crap. This is an adult conversation where I assume you will keep practicality and individual experience in mind. Also, I am not suggesting that you might not at some point consider a deficit strategy that specifically targets fat, but calorie restriction alone often wastes as much muscle as it does fat. Since muscle is important as it relates to staying alive and looking good (even for women), it's kind of a big deal. Since most of us embark upon diets to improve our appearance as much as our health, calorie deprivation is full of holes. Let's go over the scenario I talked about earlier and examine how it relates to a calorie counting scheme.
In the first scenario, I presented a standard breakfast from before I learned what I was doing. These choices took more from my body than they provided; they were "empty calories." You could really make a case against every single thing I ate, even the coffee. (By the way I love coffee and I have some thoughts that I will get to later; it might surprise you how much coffee I drink.). Eating the typical low calorie "diet foods" and follow the standard suggestion of gobbling all these tiny little meals left me engaged in a battle royale against my body's hunger signals. I was keeping my metabolism "stoked", just to lose a pound! Clearly the violent cravings were an indicator of my success. Or not! Let's be clear about this: no matter how many times you eat, your metabolism will only burn through as many calories as it needs to. There are cases that can be made for both sides of the argument, so rest assured; if you want to eat 18 meals a day, by utilizing the knowledge I provide you with, you will be giving your body with what it needs. That is the secret. No shortcuts, no bullshit.
Cravings and hunger are a good sign that you are stressing your body out. I do not know about most of you, but I have enough things stressing me out; I do not need to add food restriction or mental images of dancing cupcakes taunting me onto that list. When your body is stressed, it breaks down muscle for energy at an accelerated rate. This leads to poor muscle tone or your typical 'skinny fat' appearance. What we eat aids in the repair of our body from the wear and tear we put it through on a daily basis. Mental stress is just as damaging to your body as physical stress is, leading to even more hunger. Additionally, when you do not provide your body with the nutrients it's clearly signaling for, you're left with lethargy and fatigue. But that's fine, right? That's when you grab a 5 hour energy or another coffee like you've always done! Those are stimulants, and using them to make up for a lack of food is one of the worst ideas that we commonly put into practice. The nature of these "perk-me-ups" is to stress the body for a specific result; it is like pouring gas on a fire. Stress hormones run rampant and while you do get the energy they promised, a lot of it comes from muscle.
Remember this all started because you did not provide your body with what it wanted and one of two things are going to happen come nighttime: you are either going to negate whatever potential weight loss you could have achieved through calorie restriction and binge, or you'll gut it out and go to bed starving (which isn't favorable as far as maintain muscle mass goes). If you tough it out, well…Good luck sleeping that night. This is no way to go on, but this is the standard prescription we're offered by the media and the mainstream weight loss industry.
Weight Watchers or calorie counting is a tool; it's not inherently evil. Later in the blog, we'll go over some calorie counting strategies that can set you on the right track if you use them correctly. No, the tool isn't to blame; the way it's used, however, ignores what your body is saying by trying to fit a lot of pieces into the puzzle that just don't line up. Said another way, "No matter how few nachos you eat, it's still not as effective as eating a nutrient dense salad." You need to acknowledge and react to your body's signals. That is why broccoli is a low point Weight Watchers food, and worked well until food manufacturers got wind of the diet and decided to capitalize with "one point" pastries and candy. This is essentially what all calorie restriction systems are; they allow you to disregard the natural signals your body gives you so you can "fit in" junk food. Now, I'm not saying you can't have some junk food here and there. You can eat beer and nachos as long as you understand what it does to your body. My goal is to educate you so that you can get to a point where you're eating right 80% of the time and that you understand some of the science, so beer or nachos can be guilt free. I want you to come full circle, from relying upon these foods, to enjoying them in context with your healthy nutrition plan.
What if there were no bad foods?
Ask yourself this question: "If you did not place judgments upon food as either bad or good, how would that change your perspective as it relates to food choices? Would your life be more difficult, or easy?" I have been ragging on oatmeal a bit, partly because it is considered to be a food that is "good for you", and therefore "safe" to eat. Conversely everyone knows ice cream is "bad for you", so it's one of the first things they tend to drop when they start changing their nutrition. I want you to try and look at all foods with a level of scrutiny, but our goal is lose the attributions of "bad" or "good". Food is not inherently good or bad for you; it's how you apply it to your individual lifestyle that renders either a favorable or undesirable result. Those kinds of judgments don't take you into context, and they have no place in the way we're going to think about foods from now on. Demonizing food you love leads to bad decisions justified by a misunderstanding of basic principles; you can eat what you want as long as you make sure to eat what you need, and best of all, you can make it work to your advantage.
But What If I'm Not Fat?
For whatever reason, everyone responds differently to food, but in general everybody requires proper nutrients. If you're 9% body fat and you want to get 5% body fat, understanding the basics I'll lay out will help you simplify the process and make your life easier. Whether fat or skinny, it is important to understand the messages your body is sending you. Once you know what these signals mean, you will have cracked the code that has baffled you for so long, no matter what your goals are.
- Most of us are malnourished; we either eat too much of the wrong foods, or too little of the right ones. Both scenarios lead to dysfunction
- Cravings are a normal response when you remove foods from your diet. Getting the timing, composition, and size of your meals right is more important than restricting your caloric intake.
- Calorie restriction without regard for the composition of the food you eat (carbs, fat, and protein) results in unmitigated weight loss of bone, muscle and fat. The resultant outcome is a reduced quality of life.
- You can eat healthy and still have your favorite foods. There are no bad foods.
- A balanced, flexible approach to nutrition can benefit anyone, from sedentary individuals to athletes. There's no need to drive yourself crazy to maintain health and a lean body composition.

I usually skip breakfast i am sort of doing some intermittent fasting, but i do eat coconut oil, red meat and whole eggs, i just hate eggs whites what a waste. Most people don't realize but you need saturated fats to produce cholesterol which is so important in the body, and for us men to produce testosterone naturally.
i can seriously relate to this…i wod at 530am..then eat oatbran mixed with protein powder at 730am…then i am starving at 9am and eat my lunch…and do the same thing you used to do…look to eat a light lunch…or hold out till dinner…my cycle sucks right now
i am a (vegetarian), closer to vegan…only eat eggs, actually egg whites…
I am not overweight, what is your breakfast recommendation for breakfast…i am not at all afraid of carbs..:)
thanks so much
Loved the article Paul! Skipping breakfast is easier said than done. Not only due to habit, but the fact that most people are hungry the next day within an hour of waking up. Could you by chance describe an evening meal for you? Do you have a bed time snack? What roles do these meals play in skipping breakfast?
People are typically hungry in the morning because they didn't eat enough the day before. But you don't have to delay it more than say a couple of hours. Certainly you get some hunger signals but coffee gets rid of that for me.
no carbs for breakfast, fats and proteins and delay breakfast a bit to get out of the "storage" window.
yes, you are literally less of a man if you eat just the egg whites. Great comment!
Great info! Quick question regarding meals in the morning and post-WOD. In order to avoid the storage window how long should you wait to eat breakfast? Does coffee with cream count? I typically get up around 535am, have coffee with cream around 6am and eat breakfast around 8-9am. Last question, after your WOD how long should you wait before having a real meal? Does it matter? I typically WOD at 7pm, have a protein shake at 8, then eat my meal around 830. I think I'm rushing into my evening meals but my bed time is 930pm. :/

I purchased your book & have been doing fasting & carb backloading pre crossfit days for 2 weeks now. I have been pleasantly surprised by how much energy I have on my fasted mornings! I have been going 15-16 hours & workout during this state and feel pretty great. I have also increased my calories based on my TDEE. However, I have noticed that I'm pretty tired the day after i don't carb backload & do more fats. On days I don't do crossfit, I do interval sprints & 45 minutes of yoga. Should I be carb backloading for those days too??
Love all of your posts & I'm excited to see the results!
I should also add that I do paleo foods 90% of the time.
Yes, it sounds like you should be back loading every day, that is in fact what I do I just lower and raise them based on how I feel and look. It's something that becomes second nature over time.
yes coffee with cream counts, I would drink it black. 2 hours is fine, ideally closer to 4 but you shouldn't be uncomfortable. I typically have PWO drink 30 minutes and eat an hour to two hours later (but this varies wildly). Time shouldn't matter on evening meals but trying to eat 1500 calories 15 minutes before bed might be a mistake.

The University has partnered with the Republic of Panama in an initiative known as Panama Bilingue [Bilingual Panama], a project implemented by the president of Panama to ensure its citizens are bilingual in Spanish and English.
Panamanian president Juan Carlos Varela has pledged to send 1,000 Panamanians per year for the next five years to study English and second language teaching methods. Institutions of higher learning across the English-speaking world are hosting pre-service elementary teachers and teachers of English as a Second Language (ESL).
In early January, Southern Miss welcomed 50 Panamanian educators to campus. Half of the group, pre-service elementary school teachers, will study English at Southern Miss' English Language Institute for the semester. The other half, ESL teachers, will be on campus until March 6. These teachers are taking classes on teaching a second language methods and applied linguistics in the Dept. of Foreign Languages and Literatures.

University faculty and student researchers continue to explore ways to enhance the lives of Mississippians.
With antibiotic-resistant Staph infection becoming more prevalent, University researchers and Forrest General Hospital have embarked on a campaign to reduce the morbidity and mortality in those affected by Staph infections.
The causative agent of most Staph infection is triggered by germs that live on the skin or in the nose of individuals. There are approximately 86,000 cases and 11,000 deaths per year in the United States from what is commonly known as Staph infection.
The study will show risk factors for those in the Southeast United States, and particularly in Mississippi, who are prone to Staph infections and resistant to antibiotics.
The University continues to be a thought-leader in the community and across the state.
On Tuesday, Feb. 17, we hosted the 5th annual Educators Connect conference that highlighted innovative strategies and practical resources for educators. The 2015 conference theme, Faculty Practices for Engaging Learners, emphasized traditional and innovative methods with potential to improve student-learning outcomes.
Dr. Todd Zakrajsek, executive director of the Center for Faculty Excellence at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, was the keynote speaker.

The United States U-23 women's national soccer team is a youth soccer team operated under the auspices of U.S. Soccer. Its primary role is the development of players in preparation for the full Women's National Team. The team's most recent major tournament was the 2008 Nordic Cup, in which the United States team won 3-0 over Germany. The team competes in a variety of competitions, including the annual Nordic Cup, which is the top competition for this age group.[1] The current head coach is Steve Swanson.
Beginnings as a U-20 program[edit]
The United States U-23 team has been active since 1989, however it was run as a U-20 team from its inception until 1998.[2] Its main goal was to prepare college players for the step up to international soccer. Women had no viable opportunities to enhance their playing abilities, aside from overseas, since the United States lacked a top-level domestic league during this time.
The switch to U-21[edit]
In 1998, United States Soccer Federation decided to make the team a U-21 team in order to give women a higher level of play to better prepare them for the full National Team. In accordance with this strategy, the U-21 team frequently rostered "over-aged" players in the U-21 training camps, as well as the Nordic Cup. It remained a U-21 team from 1998 through 2008.
Competing as a U-23 team[edit]
2008 saw the change of the USA's oldest youth national team moved to the U-23 level. The move was made by the United States Soccer Federation in response to age-level changes FIFA had made to its oldest women's youth competition, now named FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup. The age limit was raised from being a U-19 tournament to a U-20 tournament. This change, coupled with a newly introduced U-23 age limit to the Nordic Cup, prompted the USSF to rethink and eventually change the youth development team. The team continues serve as a stepping-stone for collegiate and post-collegiate players to the United States Women's National Team.[3] Additionally, many U-23 players develop further through the new national women's league, the NWSL. While many of the post-collegiate players play in this new league to develop their game, the U-23's turned focus on college players who are out of season and may not yet be NWSL-eligible.
Current squad[edit]
Head coach Steve Swanson called in 24 players for the January Camp at National Training Center in Carson, California, from January 3–10. The roster features nine overage players, and part of the Camp will run concurrently with the full USWNT.[4]
Recent call-ups[edit]
2014 Six Nations Tournament roster[edit]
The United States won the tournament with victories over Japan (1-0) on March 1, Sweden (2-1) on March 3, and Norway (2-1) on March 5. Defender Abby Dahlkemper was the only U.S. player to play every minute of the three matches in the tournament.[5]
The roster for the Six Nations Tournament from Feb. 24 – March 6, 2014 in La Manga, Spain.[6]
Note: Assists in parenthesis in goals column
2013 Four Nations Tournament roster[edit]

PR65+ Cameo 1904 Ten Dollar1904 $10 PR65+ Cameo NGC. A virtually pristine representative of this rare proof date. A total of 108 proofs were issued, but a number were spent during hard times, or by heirs, prior to 1940. While such an action seems the height of folly today, it must be remembered that ten dollars went a long way during the Great Depression, and proofs carried little premium over face at the time, as only a handful of collectors had the wealth to pursue examples. In his 1988 Encyclopedia, Walter Breen estimated there are 35 to 40 survivors. Some of those are impaired, since PCGS has certified 11 pieces in grades between PR50 and PR58.
Radiant Devices Contrast With Glassy Fields
Radiant Devices Contrast With Glassy Fields
The present high-grade Gem is fully impressed and displays greater design detail on the hair above the ear than can be seen on any business strike of the series. The darkly mirrored fields are undisturbed by hairlines and show only a few minute strike-throughs, one of which, beneath the E in WE, is mentioned solely to provide an identifier for any future auction appearances. The legends, stars, and major devices exhibit consistent frost, and the cameo contrast is considerable.
No proof 1904 tens have been certified as Ultra Cameo or Deep Cameo by either major service. In addition, none have been have certified without a Cameo designation in grades above PR64, and PCGS has graded no Cameo pieces above PR64. The present specimen is one of two examples that have received a Star designation and is the only piece with both a Star and a Plus notation. NGC has certified just two pieces higher, one as PR66, and the other as PR66 (6/11). Since it may be many years before those coins emerge again at auction, the importance of the present opportunity, to obtain a high-end Gem proof, cannot be overstated.(Registry values: P1) (NGC ID# 28GB, PCGS# 88844)

This is a very broad question, and difficult to answer without a bit more context. Pollution comes in many forms; chemical, thermal, acoustic, and physical for example.
Your water might be affected by iron, a commonly occurring constituent of drinking water. Iron tends to add a rusty, reddish brown (or sometimes yellow) color to water, and leaves particles of the same color.
Water leaving our homes generally goes either into a septic tank in the back yard where it evaporates or seeps back into the ground, or is sent to a sewage-treatment plant through a sewer system.
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are widely used in the manufacture of many products including refrigerants, plastics, adhesives, paints, and petroleum products, have been detected in about one-third of the wells sampled by the National Water-Q
No, but it can cause problems. Depending on where you live, maybe you've heard of acid rain.
Acid precipitation affects stone primarily in two ways: dissolution and alteration. When sulfurous, sulfuric, and nitric acids in polluted air react with the calcite in marble and limestone, the calcite dissolves.
Eutrophication is the process by which a body of water acquires a high concentration of nutrients, especially phosphorus and nitrogen. These typically promote excessive growth of algae.
First let's talk about what E. coli is. It is a type of bacteria commonly found in the intestines of animals and humans. The presence of E. coli in water is a strong indication of recent sewage or animal waste contamination.

Oct 7, 2013Swapping out the sonic and mental clutter for a host of centered, unconfused rock tunes is a curveball move, for sure, but the end product is the most memorable, lasting, and relatable albums in Of Montreal's extensive catalog, and easily one of the best.
Oct 7, 2013Give this three plays and it'll stay imbedded in your autumn playlist. [Nov 2013, p.90]
Oct 7, 2013[Kevin Barnes] sounds like he's gotten more comfortable here, and while that doesn't always make for the best music, in the case of Of Montreal, it resulted in one of their best.
May 1, 201412th album Lousy with Sylvianbriar strums out a more agreeable amalgam for the veteran Athens, Ga., clown car.
Oct 10, 2013Although Lousy With Sylvianbriar lacks the violent eclecticism of their 2007 classic 'Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer?', it's a genre-morphing triumph that reveals new surprises with each listen.
Oct 10, 2013Each and every moment of Lousy With Sylvianbriar celebrates the breaking down of genre barriers that Dylan jumpstarted in 1965. It's an album that looks to the past while illuminating perfectly the many talents of its contemporary creator.
Oct 18, 2013For a group whose best moments are when they teeter on just about every edge imaginable, it's just... boring.
Oct 10, 2013Lousy with Sylvianbriar won't ever be viewed as the quintessential Of Montreal album. But sourness aside, it's the healthy sound of a restless spirit.
Dec 17, 2013Even as Barnes works with a more limited palette, the drums/bass/guitar ensemble sounds as tight and crisp as could possibly be desired. He just doesn't seem to want to be as gentle as the music that he has created here, resulting in a frustrating, and sometimes rather irritating listen.
Oct 7, 2013The melodies, meanwhile, avoid obvious hooks, in favour of tension and knotty complexity. This rescues Lousy with Sylvianbriar from dreary rockism.
Oct 8, 2013Sylvianbriar brings a sunny openness to of Montreal's ever-evolving cache with its sweeping changes in styles and instrumentation and adherence to more traditional song structures.
Oct 18, 2013In control, indeed, and not just of scathing language. His command over his songwriter's rainbow, from pop sprite to pastoral sage to rockabilly goat gruff, redlines on "Hegira Emigre." [No. 103, p.56]
Oct 10, 2013In the grand tradition of rockers who have music to cure their own isolation and misery, Barnes and Of Montreal have entered a great one in the canon with Lousy With Sylvianbriar.
Oct 8, 2013Whether exposing light or dark, or some blank hue in the middle, Barnes has all but bulls-eyed his status as a brilliantly daring artist on Lousy.
Oct 11, 2013Barnes seems playfully aware that his lyrics are Gordian knots, impossible for even the most devoted Of Montreal fan (including, possibly, himself) to untangle completely. And yet there are moments of clarity on Lousy with Sylvianbriar that prove Barnes is both his own harshest judge and most lenient jury.
Oct 9, 2013Exactly where the album fits within the band's catalog will probably be debated for as long as people talk about the band; where precisely you place it is irrelevant if the listening experience itself is this enjoyable.
Oct 7, 2013While of Montreal aren't exactly strutting 2007-style again, their tweaked, re-energized sound has them strutting nonetheless. And that's what they do best.
Oct 11, 2013Where once Of Montreal sparkled, they're now mired in a plodding, asexual beige. [Nov 2013, p.113]
Oct 22, 2013Lousy with Sylvianbriar is, quite simply, a weary album.
Oct 8, 2013What makes Lousy with Sylvianbriar a typically of Montreal album is Barnes's effortless subversion of these classic rock idioms, his ability to distort the twangy harmonies and corn-fed heartland melodies with blindingly vivid, visceral lyrical imagery as deceptive and dark as it is gorgeously enunciated.
Oct 8, 2013Overall, Lousy With Sylvianbriar is a satisfying link in bringing Barnes' musical progression full-circle, but at times he seems to forget what made him so good at this stuff the first time around.
Oct 9, 2013The stronger songs sound intentionally raw and impulsive; the weaker songs like demos waiting to be fleshed out.
Oct 15, 2013Lousy With Sylvanbriar is a drab, insufferably uninteresting album.
Oct 7, 2013By producing an album without electronic stimulants, Kevin Barnes continues to explore fresh musical dimensions. And while it might not always pay off, Lousy With Svlvianbriar proves once again he has a songwriting consistency few can match.

Oct 28, 2013Looks like the critics can't agree on this one. After many listens, I am hearing some influences of beatles, deerhunter, velvet undergroundLooks like the critics can't agree on this one. After many listens, I am hearing some influences of beatles, deerhunter, velvet underground and maybe even foxygen, to name a few. With the exception of the song Hegira Emigre (which should be thrown out), all the songs are fantastic. I have listened to a lot of music this year, this is one of the best of 2013.

PHI Security: The Role of Encryption and Tokenization
The indictment of nine alleged participants in a fraud scheme that involved infecting thousands of business computers with Zeus malware to steal millions of dollars shows that the malware remains a formidable ongoing threat, financial services security experts say.
See Also: Identity, Security and Risk Requirements for a New IAM Architecture
The victims in the case included a Nebraska bank and a Nebraska company, according to an announcement of the indictment from federal prosecutors. The indictment was unsealed in connection with the April 11 arraignment of two Ukrainian nationals, who were recently extradited from the United Kingdom. Three other Ukrainians and a Russian have not yet been arrested; the indictment also names three other "John Doe" defendants.
"These actors are only a few of those who operate Zeus botnets out of a sea of cybercriminals who use variations to commit fraud," says Ryan Sherstobitoff, a threat researcher at security vendor McAfee, a unit of Intel. "Zeus will always be a continuing threat, and cybercriminals will continue to use Zeus to steal money. We as an industry must be vigilant."Kevin Haley, security response director at security vendor Symantec, says the indictments won't put much of a dent in the use of the malware. "Zeus is not a gang; it's a toolkit, a very popular one used by many gangs," he says. "While today there is one less gang, there are still plenty of others using Zeus to attack us."
Andreas Baumhof, chief technology officer at anti-fraud vendor ThreatMetrix, says that when it comes to fighting fraud, the latest indictments are "like taking a scoop of sand out of the beach.
"The thing about Zeus is that the people who develop and distribute Zeus are not the same people who use Zeus to steal money," Baumhof says. "Now we have a couple less people using Zeus."
Zeus is a continuing threat because many financial institutions aren't looking necessarily for the malware itself, says George Tubin, banking expert at anti-malware provider Trusteer. "What [banks] are trying to do is use different authentication means and different fraud prevention technologies to try to spot when fraud happens," he says. "But very few institutions are actually trying to identify when man-in-the-middle malware [such as Zeus] is being used."
The nine defendants in the case revealed April 11 allegedly used the malware to capture passwords, account numbers and other information necessary to log into online banking accounts, federal prosecutors say. The conspirators then used the information to steal millions of dollars from victims' bank accounts.
The defendants allegedly falsely represented to banks that they were employees of the victim organizations and were authorized to make transfers of funds from the victims' bank accounts, according to an announcement from the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
As part of the scheme, the defendants allegedly used money mules in the U.S. who received funds transferred over the ACH network or through other interstate wire systems from victims' bank accounts, the FBI says. The money mules then allegedly withdrew some of those funds and wired the money overseas to conspirators.
All the defendants were charged by a federal grand jury with conspiracy to participate in racketeering activity, conspiracy to commit computer fraud and identity theft, aggravated identity theft and multiple counts of bank fraud.
McAfee's Sherstobitoff says federal law enforcement is making progress mitigating the Zeus threat through botnet takedowns and disruption efforts. "These disruption efforts are oriented toward breaking up criminal rings who operate Zeus to steal from commercial entities," he says.
Haley at Symantec notes: "Security technology continues to get better, and users become more aware of the social engineering tricks that attackers deploy. But the attackers do not stand still either."

BELOW IS THE PRESS RELEASE FROM THE MILWAUKEE ADMIRALS. For full Admirals coverage, follow our good friends @adsroundtable on Twitter. — Milwaukee, WI— One game after being shutout for the first time this season, the Milwaukee Admirals offense erupted for six goals from six different players to take a 6-3 win over the Lake Erie Monsters on Friday night at the Bradley Center. The win snapped a brief two-game losing streak for the Admirals and put a share of first-place on the line Saturday night against the Charlotte Checkers, who lead the Ads by two points in the Midwest Division. The Admirals jumped out to a 1-0 lead after the first period on Michael Latta's 11th goal of the season at the 8:55 mark. Ads defenseman Victor Bartley took the puck from the Milwaukee zone and fired it up ice to Blake Geoffrion, who sent a quick pass to a speeding Latta. Latta skated into the Ads zone and then fired a wrister top shelf over the shoulder of Lake Erie goalie Trevor Cann. A busy second perio...

The Wednesday fires in Canton were deliberately set, city fire officials say. And a $5,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the arrest of the arsonist or arsonists.Canton firefighters declared the blaze that destroyed three homes in a southwest neighborhood early Wednesday morning as cases of arson.
A day after fire destroyed their home, Timothy Foerster and his daughter walked into their gutted kitchen looking for whatever survived the blaze.
He found a box containing pictures of his wife, Jennifer Wolfe, who died in 2005. He also found the brass urn filled with her ashes.
A few minutes later, their 15-year-old daughter, Amber Wolfe, emerged from another room inside the two-story wood-frame at 815 Michael Pl. SW. She carried a singed copy of the popular vampire novel "New Moon."
"It's still readable," the Timken High School student said. "My 'LeBron James' (biography) is destroyed! Where's my 'Th1rteen R3asons Why' by Jay Asher. It's autographed. It's the most amazing book ... " She trudged into another room in search of her copy.
Firefighters say someone purposely burned their home early Wednesday, and at the same time, a vacant house less than a block away. That fire also spread to a home next door.
Thomas and Erika Williams and their daughter, Tommia Williams, also 15, awoke and escaped their burning home at 624 Marion Ave. SW.
Wednesday's fires were the latest in a string of recent arsons in Canton, firefighters say.
A reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible is being offered by the Ohio Blue Ribbon Arson Committee through the Canton Fire Department.
Division Chief John Whitlatch said that, while some of the houses which recently burned were vacant, "they are often in close proximity to occupied homes. The fires on Michael Place SW and Marion Avenue SW have displaced two families from their homes and they are fortunate nothing worse happened."
Foerster said he thinks someone mistook his house for vacant after he replaced two broken first-floor windows with paneling. During the fire, he also had noticed that a tire from his front porch had been pushed under one of the windows, he said.
Last week, someone set fire to a vacant duplex at 610 Rose Ct. NW.
And on May 8, firefighters were called to 200 Collins Ct. NW, where the flames also had ignited a neighboring house at 1317 Second St. NW. Both homes were vacant. That same night, less than two blocks away, a vacant warehouse on McGregor Avenue NW was set ablaze.
According to Canton Build-ing Department records, the city has 1,686 homes listed as being vacant as of April 15. That figure does not include many more that are not on city records.
Foerster's daughter has only known one home. It was where she was living when she survived cancer — non-Hodgkin's lymphoma — at 9 years old. It was her home at age 11, when her mother died Feb. 5, 2005.
Page 2 of 2 - And it still was her home at 1 a.m. Wednesday when her father rushed her from their burning house. He also ran back inside to save her dog, Bella, which she named for a lead character in the "Twi-light" book series.
The teen said that, while she doesn't understand why someone would want to burn down her house, she has an invitation for whomever set the fire: "They can come to my church. They obviously need God in their heart." She attends Faith Bible Church on Firestone Road NE.
"I look at this (fire experience) two ways," she said. "It's a bad thing because everything's destroyed. It's a good thing because we can start all over again."
And it was a dangerous thing, too, her father pointed out.
"I'd like to ask whoever's responsible for these fires to have enough humanity in yourself to give yourself up and ask for help. You need it, you know? Because next time, somebody's going to get killed," Foerster said.
"What did you accomplish by burning someone's house down, taking everything we've got when we don't have anything to begin with?"
The American Red Cross is providing the family with temporarly housing, food and clothing.
In the meantime, Foerster is trying to salvage any belongings.
On Thursday morning, he found a few pictures in the burned rubble.
Then he found something his daughter, who attends Early College, evidently deemed important.
"He found my book bag!" she cheered as he handed her the blue bag containing her lip gloss. And she found her copy of "Th1rteen R3asons Why."

Ridley, Matt : International Centre for Life / Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory
Matt Ridley's books have been shortlisted for six literary awards. He has been a scientist, a journalist, and a national newspaper columnist, and is currently chairman of the International Centre for Life, in Newcastle, England. He is also a visiting professor at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in New York.
Chapter One Human Nature The most curious part of the thing was, that the trees and the other things round them never changed their places at all: however fast they went, they never seemed to pass anything. "I wonder if all the things move along with us," thought poor puzzled Alice, And the Queen seemed to guess her thoughts, for she cried, "Faster! Don't try to talk!" -- Lewis Carroll, Through the Looking-Glass When a surgeon cuts into a body, he knows what he will find inside. If he is seeking the patient's stomach, for example, he does not expect to find it in a different place in every patient. All people have stomachs, all human stomachs are roughly the same shape, and all are found in the same place. There are differences, no doubt. Some people have unhealthy stomachs; some have small stomachs; some have slightly misshapen stomachs. But the differences are tiny compared with the similarities. A vet or a butcher could teach the surgeon about a much greater variety of different stomachs: big, multichambered cow stomachs; tiny mouse stomachs; somewhat human looking pig stomachs. There is, it is safe to say, such a thing as the typical human stomach, and it is different from a non-human stomach. It is the assumption of this book that there is also, in the same way, a typical human nature, It is the aim of this book to seek it. Like the stomach surgeon, a psychiatrist can make all sorts of basic assumptions when a patient lies down on the couch. He can assume that the patient knows what it means to love, to envy, to trust, to think, to speak, to fear, to smile, to bargain, to covet, to dream, to remember, to sing, to quarrel, to lie. Even if the person were from a newly discovered continent, all sorts of assumptions about his or her mind and nature would still be valid. When, in the 1930s, contact was made with New Guinea tribes hitherto cut off from the outside world and ignorant of its existence, they were found to smile and frown as unambiguously as any Westerner, despite 100,000 years of separation since they last shared a common ancestor. The "smile" of a baboon is a threat; the smile of a man is a sign of pleasure: It is human nature the world over. That is not to deny the fact of culture shock. Sheeps' eyeball soup, a shake of the head that means yes, Western privacy, circumcision rituals, afternoon siestas, religions, languages, the difference in smiling frequency between a Russian and an American waiter in a restaurant -- there are myriad human particulars as well as human universals. Indeed, there is a whole discipline, cultural anthropology, that devotes itself to the study of human cultural differences. But it is easy to take for granted the bedrock of similarity that underlies the human race -- the shared peculiarities of being human. This book is an inquiry into the nature of that human nature. Its theme is that it is impossible to understand human nature without understanding how it evolved, and it is impossible to understand how it evolved without understanding how human sexuality evolved. For the central theme of our evolution has been sexual. Why sex? Surely there are features of human nature other than this one overexposed and troublesome procreative pastime. True enough, but reproduction is the sole goal for which human beings are designed; everything else is a means to that end. Human beings inherit tendencies to survive, to eat, to think, to speak, and so on. But above all they inherit a tendency to reproduce. Those of their predecessors that reproduced passed on their characteristics to their offspring; those that remained barren did not. Therefore, anything that increased the chances of a person reproducing successfully was passed on at the expense of anything else. We can confidently assert that there is nothing in our natures that was not carefully "chosen" in this way for its ability to contribute to eventual reproductive success. This seems an astonishingly hubristic claim. It seems to deny free will, ignore those who choose chastity, and portray human beings as programmed robots bent only on procreation. It seems to imply that Mozart and Shakespeare were motivated only by sex. Yet I know of no other way that human nature can have developed except by evolution, and there is now overwhelming evidence that there is no other way for evolution to work except by competitive reproduction. Those strains that reproduce persist; those that do not reproduce die out. The ability to reproduce is what makes living things different from rocks. Besides, there is nothing inconsistent with free will or even chastity in this view of life. Human beings, I believe, thrive according to their ability to take initiatives and exercise individual talent. But free will was not created for fun; there was a reason that evolution handed our ancestors the ability to take initiatives, and the reason was that free will and initiative are means to satisfy ambition, to compete with fellow human beings, to deal with life's emergencies, and so eventually to be in a better position to reproduce and rear children than human beings who do not reproduce. Therefore, free will itself is any good only to the extent that it contributes to eventual reproduction. Look at it another way: If a student is brilliant but terrible in examinations -- if, say, she simply collapses with nervousness at the very thought of an exam -- then her brilliance will count for nothing in a course that is tested by a single examination at the end of the term. Likewise, if an animal is brilliant at survival, has an efficient metabolism, resists all diseases, learns faster than its competitors, and lives to a ripe old age, but is infertile, then its superior genes are simply not available to its descendants. Everything can be inherited except sterility ...

By 1910 he had married an Australian-born woman and had several children. In 1941 Setsutaro was interned at Tatura as an enemy alien, he was over 70 years old. He was released at the end of World War II, and unlike most Japanese interns he was not deported. Setsutaro returned to Geelong where he remained for the rest of his life.

Mixing family with business is never easy, and Jack Shea (Kyle Bornheimer) is about to learn that lesson the hard way. When Jack's father, Tony (J.K. Simmons), has a heart attack and is forced to hand over the keys to his beloved handyman business, Jack is eager to finally step up and make his father proud. Unfortunately Jack's past career efforts have been less than stellar, so everyone seems to be waiting for him to fail. His new job isn't made any easier by Tony's rebellious, troublemaking assistant, Darren (Edi Gathegi), and Darren's flirtatious sister, Liz (Danielle Nicolet), who works at the local hardware store. But with the support of his Aunt Terry (Leah Remini) and his oddball yet endearing cousin Mason (Johnny Pemberton), Jack Shea may just find his true calling right at home.

Simmons ("Ultimate Spiderman," "Generator Rex," "The Closer") as Tony Shea, Edi Gathegi ("X Men: First Class") as Darren Poynton, Johnny Pemberton ("21 Jump Street," "Aim High") as Mason Baumgardner, Danielle Nicolet ("X Men TV Series") as Lisa "Stitch" Poynton and Leah Remini ("In the Motherhood," "King of Queens") as Terry Baumgardner.
Based on the UK series "White Van Man," the "Family Tools" teleplay is by Bobby Bowman. "Family Tools" is executive-produced by Joshua Sternin ("That '70s Show"), J.R. Ventimilia ("That '70s Show"), Mark Gordon ("Grey's Anatomy," "Criminal Minds"), Andrea Shay ("It Takes a Village," "Virtual Virgin") and Paul Buccieri ("Prime Suspect").

Discussion in 'Fly Fishing Forum' started by Andrew Kirkland, Mar 18, 2009.
Rattle snake
getting skunked
seeing mumbles like his ava
Not in that order.....
Posted property.
Im affraid of the long term effects of sun light on my skin. Thats why Im always with the sun screen, gloves, hats, long sleeve, pants, etc..
Been there done that..
The sound of DUELING BANJOS and not having Coach Duff with you.
What I fear:
When I am up fishing some remote stream in the mountains, the thought of breaking my leg or foot. I'm usually alone, so there is no way for me to get out and get help.bawling:
Meeting up with a big ol' mamma bear and her cubs, I've done that on the upper Cascade.
Running into Mumbles after he looses a bet.
-Note to self: If ever out fishing with Mumbles, don't make a bet.
Discovering a leak (waders or pontoon)
On unfamiliar waters, recognizing the take out
As for being killed by a mother bear in YNP on a cold October day, what a way to be remembered! I always tell my kids if I die remember I was doing what I loved. I just hope she (the bear) has the courtesy to kill me after I've fished for the day.
I'll take that bet. Seriously, what is with the Mublashing? It is okay, times are tough, I can take it. I normally don't gamble, you see why, I usually lose my shirt.
Up until I'm actually fishing: I'm worry that I forgot something important (rod, reel, boots, license, flies..).
Once I find I have all I need and I'm actually fishing, the only thing I worry about is theft/vandalism of the car.. it really ticks me off that I have to worry about anything while I'm fishing, so I doubly despise thieves.
Global Warming, I hate those hot days
My biggest fear is getting MUDBUTT during wading and missing a good bite.
I'll add moose to my list. Last summer fishing in the Bitterroots there were moose all around. One day while fishing a hole my brother looked over his shoulder and 60 yards below him a moose was standing mid-river, just staring at him. Luckily it was just a bull and not a cow with calf. It proceeded to cross the river and saunter straight up the steep hillside, disappearing into the brush. Later that day I was walking down the trail to the next run, thinking about moose, whistling and making all sorts of loud noises. Did not want to round a bend and surprise anything. If I had, I'd have needed the TP I forgot to pack with me.
forgetting t.p. and forgetting a pocket knife....u ever try to tear your boxers off with your waders around your ankles shortly after you realize that the t.p. is at home? its not pretty.
Being one that had a chunk of skin cancer carved out of the side of my head last January. Yep sunlight is something to fear. Of course when I was a kid in the late 60's and early 70's working as a bait boy and then later skippering charter boats salmon fishing out of Westport we didn't have a decent sunscreen. In those days my nose and ears would get so bad they would bleed.
Screw the suntans....I use a 85 sunblock now. Be afraid of the sun and make sure your kids are well protected.
2 biggest fears are
1. Getting attacked by somthing
2. drowning
or you can cut the sleeves off you t-shirt.
i have many sleeveless tee's
My biggest fear is walking in on an illegal grow operation with a pocket full of zig-zags and a box of those "crustables" peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
When I'm fishing or backpacking in remote areas that's definitely on the top of my list. I've almost hyperextended my knee on a steep backcountry decent before. Took me an extra day of recovery to feel well enough to put the pack back on to hike out. It still hurts now and again. Definitely a sobering experience. Get trained in emergency first aid and survival techniques and always let someone know where you are and when you'll get back.
Other things I fear when I'm fishing/backpacking, not necessarily prioritized:
-Sleeping bag getting wet. Nobody likes a soggy sleeping bag.
-Wind! Wind ruins everything in my book.
-Cats, occasionally. They're sneaky little buggers. Keeps me on edge when I find fresh tracks, etc.
-Bears to a minimal extent. I've seen my share, so I respect them immensely, but fear might be a strong word.
-Theft. I've had some punks steal my mp3 player out of my car before.
-Drowning. Probably should be at the top of my list and probably the most real and imminent danger out of all of them.
- liberals
- sasquatch
- anacondas
- big spiders
- internet tough guys
- gillnets
- land mines
- falling trees
- rush limbaugh eating
- osama bin laden
- travis the chimp
- the octomom
- softball sized hail
- tsunamis
- sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads
it makes it hard to fish, but i'm able to get in a tiny bit of fishing between bouts of terror

Getting started with the new Soluto – Part 1
We've recently released a new web service where you can help other people with their PCs. The best way to start is to add your own PC and experience for yourself all the great things you'll be able to do for others. It's a very simple process and who knows, you may even learn something new about your PC.
So let's get started :)
Step 1 – Register.
Step2 – Add your own PC.
Once you're in your Soluto account you can add your own PC right away. Just give it a name, press the big green download button and run the installer.
After you run the installer, head back to your account homepage (just return to http://www.soluto.com). You'll see an icon of your PC has appeared. Click on it and get ready for action.
The page that opens when you click on the PC icon contains tons of info to help you know what's going on with the PC. And what's really nice about this page is that you can take lots of different actions to improve stuff.
Let's explore the features:
Frustrations – In this section you will see info about non-responsive apps and crashes that have recently occurred on the PC.
Apps – This section enables you to update existing apps and install new ones. You can go through the list and update or install the ones you want with just a click of a button.
Background Apps – This is where you can see what apps are running in the background, and which of them are safe to remove – lightening the PC's workload and speeding up the boot.
Internet – This section lets you choose a default browser (and if you don't see the browser you want, you can install it from here), set the homepage and change the search engine. You can also disable toolbars and add-ons for a better internet experience.
Protection – Here you can turn on the PC's firewall, install an antivirus and push Windows updates to make sure the PC is protected and up-to-date.
Hardware – This last section provides lots of technical info about the PC's hardware including CPU temperature, fan speed, battery health, available disk space and more.
And that's just skimming the surface. Go and try it out to really see all the things you can do. Once you experience it for yourself, you'll want to add other people and help them out with their PCs :)

News broke that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are expecting their first child over the holidays - and since THE Wendy Williams SHOW was on hiatus - the beloved syndicated talk show host had to wait until today to give her thoughts. Check out Williams' comments below!
Posted Kardashian on New Year's Eve, "It's true!! Kanye (West) and I are expecting a baby. We feel so blessed and lucky and wish that in addition to both of our families, his mom and my dad could be here to celebrate this special time with us. Looking forward to great new beginnings in 2013 and to starting a family. Happy New Year!!! Xo"
Kanye West first revealed news of the pregnancy at his concert just the day before Atlantic City. The couple has been dating since March of 2012.
Kardashian and her family rose to prominence in 2007 with their E! reality television series 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' and its subsequent spin-offs, including Kourtney and Kim Take New York. In 2010, Kardashian was the highest-earning reality star, with estimated earnings of $6 million.
With sisters Kourtney and Khloé, Kardashian co-owns the fashion boutique chain D-A-S-H. She has been involved in the production of several lines of clothing and fragrances. In August 2011, Kardashian married basketball player Kris Humphries in a widely publicized ceremony. That October, Kardashian filed for divorce following 72 days or marriage.
