Global Gathering 2008
Long Marston Airfield, Stratford-On-Avon.25-26 July
Photographer: Shirlaine Forrest29 July 2008
But despite an outstanding line up for its UK flagship event, including Kanye West, Mark Ronson and Tiesto, and the likes of
Wild in the Country and Wax:On cancelling at the last minute, surely there must have been a few
nerves over whether this year would be a success.
Arriving in Stratford for a festival is always a bit of a weird experience. The quaint little village is besieged with clubbers of all ages and styles. This year it was even more surreal as everyone who stepped off the train was treated like a drug smuggler, herded single file through a police check point with snifffer dogs. This lead to some complaints to the police, from the locals who are just on their way back from a jaunty day out
"I'm local; do I still have to get sniffed?"
"Afraid so maam, it shouldn't take too long though"
On paper there was a sufficient amount of variety to appeal to all
and as we walked around the site soaking up the rays it was evident that the production for this year's event was phenomenal.
There were no less than ten different stages to choose from, while the camp sites were littered with rides, food stalls, amenities
(including hot running showers) and our very own watch towers to make you feel at home.
Personally I had been looking forward to seeing hip-hop king Kanye West, but after speaking with other revellers it would seem that this wasn't the case for everyone
mention his name near me'
'I mean, what the f* *k his he doing at a dance festival'
In the end
it was up to the individual to make a decision on whether this was a good idea or not. Kanye West was supposed to have had the main stage to himself due to the 'sheer scale'
of the performance. This turned out not to be true, and with much of the promised hype missing there was no orchestra, dancers
and very few special effects.
Critics in America have compared Kanye's concert to an "awesome sci-fi themed hip hopera". Im not sure this was the case here. Kanye rocked out all his big tunes while the Daft Punk ripped 'Stronger' was left for the finale, which was greeted with rapturous applause.
Kanye is what he is. A hip-hop legend. Over inflated ego (it was rumoured that he had a bit of a sulk as the Scratch Perverts warmed the crowd up for him) and body guards ready to pounce if anyone took an unofficial picture of him. To me there just seemed to be something missing. It looked as if many of the crowd left disappointed and I'm personally not sure it was the best decision to book a hip-hop star for Global. I approached James Algate the next day to see how he thought it went. His rationale behind booking him has to be applauded
"Live acts are now expected at festivals such as this", he explained. "There are only so many dance acts that can be booked until you start to regurgitate the same artists."
I have to agree; live acts broaden the appeal and bring in a wider audience. And in such a competitive landscape, this is the only way festivals such as Global can survive. Was Kanye the best choice though? Only time will tell.
The night ended in the Global tent with 14,000 other happy campers dancing out to Tiesto. His set was ok but seemed a little predictable to me. It would seem that the bigger the artist the more of an ego there is, only the official photographers were allowed back stage and there were strictly no interviews. It's almost as if they take clubbers and festival goers for granted. If it wasn't for us then you wouldn't have been voted second best DJ in the world. Maybe that's worth bearing in mind before snubbing us lesser human beings!
Not everyone, it would seem, thinks this way. I was fortunate enough to have five minutes with Fedde Le Grande before he went onstage. I'm not a huge fan of his music but his set was perfected and when he dropped 'Put Your Hands Up For Detroit' the place went mental. After his set he was flying off to Ibiza to play at Pacha but he was so determined to play Global that he had one of the earlier sets so he could appear.
With Saturday's event not starting until 2pm we tried to keep ourselves amused with what little entertainment there was. Apart from the usual fairground rides there seemed to be very little for people to remain entertained. With the outside cinema closed it seemed the only option was to congregate besides the rides as this was the only place any music could be heard. Global – sort it out.
With so much variety on Saturday it seemed difficult to pick out what sets to follow. After being a fan of Sander Kleinenberg for many years (but not having seen or heard anything by him for the last two) I decided to see what was going down in the Global tent. Maybe it's just me, or maybe my age, but there seemed to be very little to get you excited about the whole thing. After 30 minutes of a lacklustre set I headed over to see Sander Van Doorn.
It's easy to see why he has been voted so highly in the DJ world rankings. Even for someone that doesn't really appreciate techno/trance music it was difficult not to get caught up in the vibe. The energy put into the music and the enjoyment he was obviously having on stage became infectious, the DJ bouncing around like a headless grass hopper. It was a little too much for my energy levels and so decided to check out the VIP area for some much needed TLC. With each festival it's the attention to detail that makes the event. In the VIP area there were free massages for all and plush toilets. And if there wasn't enough love at the event already the Red Arrows flew overhead leaving a red heart shaped smoke cloud in the sky.
Earlier in the day I had the fortune to be able to interview John Digweed. After being at the forefront of dance music for almost two decades (I don't mean to say he's old or anything) John's appetite for making fresh music is still strong. John has played many other Global's around the world but is particularly found of Stratford and the crowd loved every millisecond. Halfway through his set, two guys climbed on their mates shoulders to unravel a flag. It was adorned with a picture of John's face and the Bedrock label, which whipped the crowd into a frenetic orgy. Next up Guy J but instead I headed over to the Global tent to see Etienne De Crecy. I would be back later though to see the legendary Zabiela.
To anyone out there that hasn't seen or heard of Etienne De Crecy then shame on you. To be honest, until the weekend I was one of you. Performing in what appeared to be the disused set of the noughts and crosses TV show it's easy to see why the man has such a reputation for himself. Playing for only an hour it's difficult to get a feel for a DJ but this guy has got talent and stage presence oozing out of him.
James Zabiela has always been an inspirational DJ for me. After winning bedroom DJ of the year and seeing him rock out in Sankey's, Cream and Fabric it is understandable why the guy has such a solid fan base. His mix of breakbeats and house music is phenomenal. The room was full of pearly white teeth as it seemed impossible for anyone to dance to him without a grin on their faces. One guy told me it was almost as if he had dropped a tonne of horse shit on him as he had never experienced such filth. Personally, I was more than happy that this was a metaphorical statement as the smell of BO was bad enough.
As the sun began to rise the previous few days began to take its toll on me so we went to catch Plump DJs. The Plumps' take on breaks is always a refreshing and Eargasm led to them gaining a residency at the Holy Grail that is Fabric. Saturday's set though seemed a little low on energy. It may have been the sound system (a particular issue for me throughout the whole weekend, I don't really want to listen to some pilled up Welsh birds talking about how good the dodgems were) or the fact that the crowd was beginning to thin out, but the set seemed a little distant. It seemed to lack the Fabric magic.
And so the weekend had finally claimed me. I could stand no longer and headed back to the tent to try and get a few hours kip before the journey home. Global 2009? I would have to say yes. Even with the few hiccups this year (Kanye?) I still think this is one of the better two day events in the UK. The Red Arrows for example go to show the thought process behind the whole event. They grabbed your attention like a massive boot to the nuts but also showed you that the £140 that has been drained from your bank account isn't just being pocketed by some hedge fund manager. It showed the promoters were trying to think of ways to keep the masses entertained and we weren't left to contemplate, 'What am I doing here?' There are always things that can be improved at these events. The twelve hour wait between the Friday and Saturday is a little overbearing, the sound levels were not to the standard I have become accustomed to and the extra £50 for VIP tickets isn't really worth it. I'm just not sure that a shorter walk to the camp site and toilets that Kim and Aggie would be proud of warrant such a mark up in price. However, Global is a truly varied and phenomenal event and one of the best UK dance festivals, without a doubt. Of course, wall to wall sunshine always helps too.

Panel Cabins
your own timber building in just one day! Every component
is a part of a panel to eliminate pieces and the high cost of labor.
The panels are constructed of wooden channels into which the panel
pieces fit tightly. The inside of the panel is rustic knotty pine
providing charm and a cozy, warm feeling. The outside of the panel
has the natural wood log look.
The panels are easily
assembled, with high-grade screws, to make walls in four foot increments
to the desired length. Any type of floor system may be sued with
the panels. The roof is also in panels for ease of construction.
The panels give the charm and elegant appearance of the open beam
ceiling with select knotty pine decking.
If the building needs
to be moved after construction it is easy to do so by removing the
screws and disassembling it. The panels may be fastened together
and reassembled after being moved to the new location.
Assembly - Putting
up the building is a simple and unique process. Each panel is fastened
to another panel with high-grade screws which have a special coating
to prevent rust and corrosion. Each wall panel is numbered to correspond
with a diagram in the instructions. The roof panels are all the
same to prevent confusion during assembly. The complete building
can be assembled with a screw gun, a level, a hammer and a chalk
line. For some buildings the doors and windows are installed in
the panels at the factory.

MooTools Elements Garbage Collection Gotchas
Posted on | January 23, 2013 | 2 Comments
MooTools handles a lot of the garbage collection with elements. While Element.destroy handles some garbage collection, it's not obvious where else garbage collection occurs. Let's clear some of this up.
Garbage Collection?
Yes, garbage collection. Elements can take up a lot of memory. Add events and items stored with Element Storage to the mix and there are more things to worry about than just the elements themselves. To help with memory issues, MooTools helps with the garbage by removing events and items stored using Element Storage methods (Element.store and Element.retrieve). But it doesn't do it with every method that involves removing elements.
The dispose method does not handle garbage collection. It only removes the element node from the parent node.
The empty method does not handle garbage collection either. It uses the dispose method when removing the child nodes of an element.
Then What Do You Do?
Well, if you intend to remove a collection of elements completely, then the simple thing is to have them all destroyed. Keep in mind doing so means that if you want to add that element back (because you kept a reference of it somewhere) then it won't have items stored in its storage or events you've previously attached.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
//If you want to get all the elements in an element using the getElements method... someElement.getElements('*').destroy(); // or if you want to use the getChildren method... someElement.getChildren().destroy(); // or if you already have an array of elements... [element1, element2, element3].invoke('destroy'); // or if you already have a collection of elements... $$('.elementsToDestroy').destory();

The process of creating a component using the create component dialog box is the same for both dynamic and regular components (dynamic components are different in that you have visibility into their internal attributes). As a dynamic component creator you will notice that the blue and green axes (LenY and LenZ) are swapped when you edit the attributes of a component that has a specific gluing orientation (such as a component that glues only to vertical surfaces). LenZ will have a value for length along the green axis and the LenY will have a value for the length along the blue axis. This is an important aspect of gluing components because it affects the variables you use in your formulas. For example, if you want to constrain a gluing component that glues to vertical surfaces, such as window, to a specific height, you're formula will have to constrain LenY, not LenZ.

The volume contains famous works by composers of the period such as Dowland, Byrd, Philips and Allison. Pavanes, gaillardes and other dances share the anthology with variations on folk tunes and pieces of a descriptive character. Morley's arrangements make great use of ornamentation and variation as well as reserving a particularly virtuoso role for the lute.

Syntrus Achmea offers retail mobile marketing option
14 November 2012 – (
Virtual Press Office
) -- In cooperation with retailcommon Syntrus Achmea Real Estate & Finance offers its retail tenants a chance to improve customer contact and loyalty by using mobile marketing. Through a web-based software program customers can get discount coupons on their mobile devices. They can then use those coupons in the shops.
Consumers can get local offers by means of QR codes, SMS, mail, Facebook and Twitter. These are today's (online) equivalent of coupons in the (local) newspaper. Customers need no longer cut out coupons and bring them to the shop; they always have access to the coupons on their mobiles.
René Vierkant, Managing Director Retail Investments at Syntrus Achmea: "We are convinced that social media and the internet will play an ever-increasing role in retail culture, including our shopping centres. This is a chance for us and our tenants to create opportunities. retailcommon's application is unique in providing us with the ability to help our retailers pull traffic to their shops, and giving them access to all the advantages of mobile over traditional advertising in targeting and engaging their prime consumer audiences. It delivers fresh insights into consumer desires and behaviour. Moreover, the application helps consumers to find their way to our centres, learn about the shops featured and opening times.'
"Syntrus Achmea is one of the world's leading asset management firms and the owner of a number of major retail centres. We are thrilled that they have decided to expand their relationship with retailcommon," said retailcommon CEO James Cunningham. "After a successful pilot project in two of their shopping centres, we will be now be offering our mobile promotional platform in all of Syntrus Achmea's Netherlands shopping centre locations."
Syntrus Achmea chose retailcommon because it is a web-based application: consumers need not download an app or provide personal data. Syntrus Achmea does not have access to the retailers' data. The data collected by retailers will go no further. To gauge the effects Syntrus Achmea will periodically receive the overall data from the retail centres.
Although retailcommon will start working with retailers in Syntrus Achmea centres, the investor encourages the use of retailcommon in other centres.
About retailcommon
retailcommon enables retailers and consumer product or service companies to create mobile coupons for promotion and delivery to existing and new customers through digital and legacy media, continuously tracking response and redemption data. Unlike other coupon services, retailcommon allows its clients to control pricing, margin, content and distribution, while maintaining ownership over the customer and tracking data.
The product does not require consumers to download an app in order to access the coupon and it works across all operating platforms. retailcommon's solution also provides client businesses with insight into the performance of social media platforms and which ones are allowing them to best reach and motivate their customers.
About Syntrus Achmea
A financial services provider, Syntrus Achmea is responsible for administering the pensions of 3.5 million Dutch nationals on behalf of more than 80 pension funds. Syntrus Achmea administers a capital of 60 billion euros; of this more than 14 billion have been invested in real estate and mortgages. This makes Syntrus Achmea the number one real estate investor in the Netherlands.

Clinical Significance
The laboratory diagnosis and monitoring of both acute and chronic infections due to hepatitis B virus (HBV) involves the use of several of the following tests: hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), the e antigen (HBeAg), antibody to the core antigen (anti-HBc), antibody to the e antigen (anti-HBe), and antibody to the surface antigen (anti-HBs). Immunity conferred by the HBV vaccine can also be assessed by measuring levels of anti-HBs (although the CDC does not recommend post-vaccination testing).Groups of HBV tests are recommended for the following clinical situations: (1) suspected acute viral hepatitis, HBsAg, IgM anti-HBc; (2) chronic hepatitis, HBsAg, anti-HBc, and anti-HBs; and (3) monitoring chronic HBV infection, HBsAg, HBeAg, anti-HBs, anti-HBe, and quantitative or qualitative HBV DNA. The result pattern of these tests are particularly helpful in differentiating acute hepatitis, chronic hepatitis, and the chronic carrier state. The pattern of reactivity is reflective of the natural course of infection.HBsAg usually becomes detectable 2 weeks to 2 months before clinical symptoms, and as little as 2 weeks after infection. It is usually present for 2 to 3 months. Five to 10 percent of patients will have persistent HBsAg levels beyond 6 months (chronic carrier, chronic hepatitis). The EIA test will detect 100 pg/mL or more of HBsAg. All positive HBsAg are further tested using the HBsAg confirmation test. About 5% of positive HBsAgs are false positives and will not neutralize in the confirmatory assay.Anti-HBc IgM first becomes detectable at about the same time as clinical symptoms appear and serum transaminases rise. It will usually persist for several months and occasionally up to a year. Anti-HBc IgG appears soon after IgM and will persist for years, ultimately disappearing in some patients. IgM may be present in cases of chronic hepatitis.The appearance of anti-HBs usually follows the disappearance of HBsAg. It persists for years and is associated with relative or absolute immunity. In patients who have received the HBV vaccine, this antibody should be the only one to appear in responders. Response depends strongly on age, sex, obesity, and general health. About 95% of healthy, thin women in their 20's will develop antibodies after a three-dose course. Twenty-five to 50 percent of non-responders will ultimately seroconvert after a repeat course. Assessing responsiveness in vaccinees is only recommended in selected subgroups (e.g., those with high prevalence of infection or health care workers). Levels less than 10 IU/L are considered negative and non-protective.The HBeAg appears in close association with HBsAg, but normally does not persist as long. Its presence is generally associated with higher infectivity, but it is of limited usefulness diagnostically. The development of anti-HBe coincides with the disappearance of e antigen. This is usually after the appearance of anti-HBc and before that of anti-HBs. Anti-HBe often disappears, but its persistence has been associated with chronic hepatitis and the chronic carrier state. It does not confer protection.The typical case of acute HBV hepatitis will be characterized by the presence of HBsAg and anti-HBc IgM. The latter is particularly helpful in HBsAg-negative cases. It is not recommended to rely solely on surface antigen determinations for diagnosing acute infection. In the antigen-negative cases, the presence of IgM and total anti-HBc and the presence of HBV DNA, in the absence of anti-HBs, will help to confirm the acute case. In chronic hepatitis, HBsAg will be present together with anti-HBc, but without anti-HBs. HBeAg may or may not be present. Approximately 1% of blood donors will have a positive anti-HBc and negative HBsAg. These donors should be further evaluated by measuring anti-HBs. Most of these donors will have a negative anti-HBs. Vaccinating donors with this pattern of results showed that the anti-HBc was a cross-reacting antibody.

ALL eyes are on Osun State as voters go to the polls on Saturday to elect a new governor. But much more than that, the handling of the election will serve as a final test-run of the capacity of the Federal Government and, by extension, the Independent National Electoral Commission, to see Nigeria through the 2015 general election.
Indeed, the stakes are high. The run-up to the election has been filled with apprehension. Apart from allegations and counter-allegations of rigging, the pockets of violence on the campaign trails of the major candidates -Rauf Aregbesola, the incumbent All Progressives Congress governor, and Iyiola Omisore of the Peoples Democratic Party -have caused tension statewide. Our democratic journey since independence was truncated by a fraud-prone electoral system that led to the "Operation Weti e" uprising in 1965 in the defunct Western Region when the government at the centre conspired with the umpire to rig out the ruling party. The situation degenerated to a full-scale upheaval that engulfed the whole country, providing the military with an excuse to intervene in governance on January 15, 1966.
The Federal Government should learn from what happened then and from the collapse of the Second Republic. President Goodluck Jonathan owes it a duty to provide an environment that is conducive to a fair, free and credible election. The election is not a do-or-die affair. The strong-arm tactics of the government and its security agencies, in the run-up to the Ekiti governorship poll in June, in which the APC chiefs, including the governors of Edo and Rivers states, were stopped from attending a rally organised by their party to support their candidate, are not part of democracy.
Already, there are serious concerns about the misuse and abuse of power in this election. The new Inspector-General of Police, Suleiman Abba, must handle this first major assignment with civility and fairness. The practice of restricting movement of travellers not connected to the election in and out of the state is archaic. Locking down a state for elections is akin to a state of siege. By now, the police should have devised a system of guaranteeing that travellers use the major highways in a state holding an election.
The shooting incident and show of force allegedly by the Department of State Security operatives last week in Osogbo, the state capital, and other towns in Osun have prompted accusations that the Federal Government has found other ways of militarising the election. Abuja must do things the lawful way and transparently too. While it must provide security, acting in any manner to suggest that it favours one party over the others creates problems in the event that the conduct and the result of the election do not meet the expectations of the people. Soldiers should not be the main security agents in the conduct of elections. We insist that the military should have no place in a civil election.
Using the military to intimidate the opposition as was done in Ekiti should not repeat itself in Osun. The police high command deployed 30,000 officers to man the Ekiti poll. That number is more than enough to police a state for an election holding on a weekend.
An election is about people choosing those who will represent them in office. It should be transparent and be seen to be so. Osun State is holding its governorship election separately today because of the flawed 2007 general election. It took more than three years for the incumbent governor to be installed by the tribunal and courts. Therefore, the Federal Government must not allow the state to descend into such a chaos again.
On its part, INEC has no excuse to fail this litmus test. After raising hopes with the conduct of the Ekiti election, it must not relapse into the reprehensible past. It must overcome its recent logistics failures in the Edo and Anambra governorship elections. The setting is perfect: a governorship election in one state out of 36 and the Federal Capital Territory, with just 30 Local Government Areas and 1,407,222 registered voters out of a population of 3,423,535 (2006 Census). Getting it right in one state should not constitute an albatross around INEC's neck unless it lends itself to the destabilising forces that have held the country down by their vile appetite for electoral heist.
To guarantee credibility, there should be no shortage or late arrival of voting materials, while results must be declared transparently and in real time at every unit in accordance with the Electoral Act 2010. The 29 domestic and international election observer groups accredited by INEC should be allowed to monitor the election without hindrance.
The massive presence of security agents should not discourage the people from voting and ensuring their votes count. With active citizen participation, the purpose of democratic poll can become a reality in the state. People should look closely at the credentials of those who are seeking to govern them. We have seen too often the results of wrong choices for elective offices. An informed choice should be made on Saturday, to spare everyone the usual post-election lamentation.
At the same time, we urge the public to watch out for attempts to undermine the ballot. For this type of high stakes contest, politicians must have mastered all types of plots to rig the results. But concerned citizens should not allow the destiny of their people to be stolen by power hungry politicians.

Choose the Garage Door Service Perfect for the Budget
The frequency of an overhead door repair can lessen if garage owners would have an overhead regular maintenance. But if you are going to ask why most of the garage door owners having overhead doors, why are they not having a regular overhead maintenance, they would answer you that overhead maintenance are equally expensive to having an overhead repair. However, Liftmaster garage door service Oceanside can put an end to these sad dilemmas of garage door owners. They have launched a new package deal in the market with a new set of garage door prices, proven by their company that will surely be perfect to any home budget. Their secret is that amongst all their garage door companies' competitors, they are the only one who has done a survey as to how much should every home pay for a garage door service, and they have adjusted their prices in accordance to the survey results.

Why Cooking Can Save Our Lives.
The cure for what ails us—both in our bodies and in our nation—can be found in the kitchen.
It is a place to rebuild community and connection, strengthen bonds with family and friends, teach life-giving skills to our children, enrich and nourish our bodies and our souls.
Yet, in the 21st century, our kitchens (and our taste buds) have been hijacked by the food industry. In 1900, only two percent of meals were eaten outside of the home; today that number is over 50 percent.
The food like substances proffered by the industrial food system trick our taste buds into momentary pleasure. But our biology rejects the junk forced on our genes and on our hormonal and biochemical pathways.
Your tongue can be fooled and your brain can become addicted to the slick combinations of fat, sugar, and salt pumped into factory-made foods, but your biochemistry cannot handle these foods, and the result is the disaster we have in America today—70 percent of us are overweight, and obesity rates are expected to top 42 percent by the end of the next decade (up from only 13 percent in 1960).
Today one in two Americans has either pre-diabetes or diabetes.
In less than a decade the rate of pre-diabetes or diabetes in teenagers has risen from 9 percent to 23 percent.
Almost one in four kids has pre-diabetes or type 2 diabetes?
Yes, and, perhaps even more shocking, 37 percent of kids at a normal weight have one or more cardiovascular risk factors such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or high blood sugar, because even though factory food doesn't necessarily make you fat, it does make you sick! The food industry taxes our health and mortgages our children's futures. Obese children will earn less, suffer more, and die younger.
It is time to take back our kitchens and our homes. Transforming the food industry seems like a gigantic undertaking, but it is in fact an easy fix. The solution is in our shopping carts, our refrigerators, and our cupboards—and on our dining room tables. This is where the power is. It is the hundreds of small choices you make every day, choices that will topple the monolithic food industry.
We need a revolution. Cooking real food is a revolutionary act. We have lost the means to care for ourselves. We have now raised the second generation of Americans who don't know how to cook.
The average child in America doesn't know how to identify even the most basic vegetables and fruit; our kids don't know where their food comes from or even that it grows on a farm. Cooking means microwaving. Food "grows" in boxes, plastic bags, and cans. Reading labels is supremely unhelpful in identifying the source of most foods—the ingredients are mostly factory-made science projects with a remote and unrecognizable lineage to real food.
We are brainwashed into thinking that cooking real food costs too much, is too hard, and takes too long. Hence, we rely on inexpensive convenience foods. But these aren't so convenient when we become dependent on hundreds of dollars of medication a month, when we can't work because we are sick and fat and sluggish, or when we feel so bad we can't enjoy life anymore.
The average American spends eight hours a day in front of a screen (mostly the television) and spends more time watching cooking shows than actually cooking.
Convenience is killing us.
In fact, real food can be inexpensive. Choosing simple ingredients, cooking from scratch, shopping at discount club stores, and getting produce from community supported agriculture associations (CSAs), community gardens, or co-ops all build health and community and save money.
Europeans spend nearly 20 percent of their income on food, Americans only about nine percent. Food is the best investment in your health.
I believe in the power of collective intelligence. Within my community are hundreds, if not thousands, of unheralded chefs experimenting with food and creating extraordinary meals and recipes. Within our individual and our national communities is the cure for what ails us. We are the answer. We are the revolutionaries who will change the face of food in America and around the world.
Yes, we need to change policy in order to change the food we grow and to subsidize real food instead of the walls of processed fat, sugar, flour, and trans fats that line our grocery and convenience stores. Yes, we need to end food marketing to children. We need to make schools safe zones for kids with only those products and activities that support healthy minds and bodies. There is no room for junk food or factory foods in schools. Period.
Yes, we need all that and more to take back our kitchens and our health. But each of us can start at home with a kitchen makeover. Three simple actions can change everything:
- Do a fridge makeover.
- Do a pantry makeover.
- Do a shopping cart makeover.
Once you have taken back your kitchen, then you can start something really revolutionary.
Find eight (or so) people you would love to know better or spend more time with. Invite them to start a supper club—once a week or once a month. Rotate dinners at one another's houses. Share the cooking by creating a potluck, or take turns choosing some favorite recipes from this cookbook and preparing a feast for all. At each dinner pick a topic—about food, health, or community—to discuss. Then let the juices flow. The stew of food and friendship will nourish you deeply.
In this way—one by one, kitchen by kitchen, community by community—we will take back our health together!

Yes! Very good article! We cook all of our meals in my house. Once in a while we go out to eat with friends but it is not very common. Even getting together with friends we will have dinner at our house or theirs more often than going out to eat. It is much better on the wallet and much better on our bodies. It is a more intimate setting to be with friends also, in my opinion. There are so many resources out there for people who don't know how to cook, too. You just have to make it a priority, and why shouldn't you make your health and happiness a priority?
good article- it's sad that this stuff actually needs to be pointed out to people & that it's not simply common sense anymore… don't forget shopping at your local farmers' market for super fresh produce & other goods in a much nicer atmosphere than "discount club stores".
Hear, hear!
Over the years our household has transitioned to more and more fresh, organic whole foods… I don't even want to eat 99% of the processed foods out there (with the exception of a few wonderfully made organic products like seed crackers, etc).
Now we can hardly stand eating out, unless it's at one of the three restaurants with fresh, local ingredients where we know the quality of the food is and it's preparation is sublime. Just wish I had a magic genie to do all the dishes cooking at home creates.
Fantastic article!! I have been saying and doing this for my little one, who is now three. We eat very little out of a box or can, and we do not eat out. It is nice to see someone in the same mindset as me, as most of those I speak to think I have gone overboard on nutrition.
I have a huge problem with my metabolism and others things from eating out and processed food in my 20's, and it took 12 years and 27 medical doctors before I found someone, a chiropractor ironically enough, to look passed my weight and truly listen to my symptoms and help me find the underlying issues we needed to fix. I did tons of reading and research, pertaining to nutrition, so my son does not have the same issues.
Dear Anne-Marie, when you say "as most of those I speak to think I have gone overboard on nutrition.", it really resonates with me. I always feel like I'm the weirdo because I feed my family and myself normal, nutritious, organic, non-processed food. My kids never had soda (even sparkling water, I don't want them to develop a taste for "bubbles"), I remove the 2 inch thick frosting on cupcakes at birthday parties (and I allow only one cupcake, not 2 or 3!), veggies are part of the school lunches I send everyday, and they always get eaten! My kids LOVE vegetables. If you don't give crap that taste "good", they learn the true taste of real good food. Because of all the obesity and more, this is my priority number one for my kids. I feel like I'm always against the flow in society, but hopefully in the long term it will pay off big time! Hugs, Ziggy
I absolutely adore this article! I "walk this talk" and it it has indeed likely saved my life. I grew up in a typical American family with the Standard American Diet and by the time I was in high school I was obese, at 22 years old over 100 pounds overweight. I was sick, tired, living half of a life. Then one day I looked at my 2 year old daughter and realized I HAD to create a new healthy family legacy or she was likely destined for the same path I was on. Our family was dying early, everyone was on medication for lifestyle related diseases. I decided right then and there I was changing it for our family and generations to come. It all started and revolves around the family table. I bring life to our table, one delicious, real food meal at a time. No more dieting. Learning to listen to my body and treating us all to real, beautiful food, cooked at home and enjoyed together as a family. I lost over 100 pounds, got off of high blood pressure, high cholesterol and high blood sugar medications (yes, I was on these at 24 years old) and live a vibrant, healthy and delicious life. Thank you so much for your article, I'm sure you touched many lives with it!

text: The actress, known for playing cheerleader Brittany on Glee, admitted to Fitness magazine that she had undergone the surgery (she was looking bustier in 2010), but then had the implants removed shortly after. "Implants were something I thought I wanted when I was younger, and now I don't," the 27-year-old former backup dancer said. "It was hard being active with them, because my chest was always sore. It hurt a lot, and I didn't like always being in pain, so they had to go!"

We found reports that Oprah Winfrey has been named godmother to Blue Ivy Carter, the newborn daughter of Jay-Z and Beyonce, to be a little dubious at the very least. And today we know that it's not true.
Oprah's best friend and CBS This Morning correspondent Gayle King announced that Oprah had not been asked to be the littlest Carter's spiritual caretaker. Reports that she had have been circling around the Internet for days now, the vast majority of them pointing to Media Takeout (that site where you saw Kanye's penis) as the source. None of the major celebrity news outlets reported it as fact, though, and now we know why. It wasn't true — if it had been, People and OK! Magazine surely would have been all over this story.
Still, it's not like it was unlikely. Blue Ivy already has the best of everything (solid gold rocking horse included), so why shouldn't she have the best godmother? And who among us could possibly make a better godmother than a wise, beloved, Oscar-nominated billionaire who's been trying to understand the way human beings behave and interact with each other for her entire adult life?
Maybe someone who's actually met the baby. Whoever Jay-Z and Beyonce ask to be their daughter's godmother will more than likely be a close family friend who gives good advice (and good presents). We nominate Kelly Rowland or Gwyneth Paltrow, but we're sure that Blue's parents will have no trouble finding someone who's up to the task.

Although pantomime has been around for hundreds of years, with the first production of Cinderella reportedly staged in 1804, judging by the number of people flocking to the Gracie Fields theatre over Christmas and New Year, its popularity shows no signs of waning.
Despite the relatively high ticket prices, there were almost no empty seats for any evening or afternoon performances of Peter Pan in Rochdale.
Peter Pan was a more unusual choice of story – a departure from the 'Big Four' of Cinderella, Aladdin, Dick Whittington, and Jack and the Beanstalk - but it was one that worked well – dozens of little girls in the audience waved illuminated wands identical to the one that fairy Tinkerbell held on stage, and little boys shouted "Ahoy There!" with abandon when pirate Smee, the comic lead played by CBeebies' Joe Chambers, came on stage.
The maritime setting gave rise to some brilliant scenes that appealed as much to the adults as the children: a man in drag dressed as a mermaid called Shaniqua in the place of the pantomime dame; a wonderfully camp rendition of 'Drunken Sailor' and 'In The Navy' by Captain Hook's crew; and a series of pirate jokes – do you know what a pirate's favourite subject is at school? The answer is aaaaaaarrrrrrt.
Rochdale's production had all the required elements of a typical pantomime: Hollyoaks and Coronation Street's Nikki Sanderson played the principal role of Peter Pan, and David McClelland – who also directed the pantomime - was absolutely brilliant as the dastardly Captain Hook, who in typical fashion was booed whenever he entered the stage.
The customary shouts of "It's behind you!" were there, but they did not – as is normally the case – help the hero to escape from the pantomime villain, but instead came when Captain Hook and his fellow pirates Smee and Starkey – played by the talented young dancer and actor Lewis Horrocks - were on the run from a giant spider in Neverland's 'Spider Woods' – an interesting departure from the typical storyline.
The familiar sequence of "Oh no, it isn't!", "Oh yes, it is!" also came during the Spider Woods scene, by the end of which the audience had shouted themselves hoarse. And of course there were the jokes at the expense of neighbouring towns and the localised one-liners; apparently in Bury the streets are paved with gold.
As well as the traditional, as is often the case with pantomimes nowadays, Peter Pan had some modern elements that appealed particularly to the younger viewers: there were references to X Factor and Strictly Come Dancing, songs from the musical Wicked and Disney film Tangled, and a rendition of One Direction's 'Live While We're Young', which sent the young audience wild.
As well as having all the elements of a typical modern pantomime, what the Rochdale production evidenced is that pantomime really is the great leveller: pantomime appeals to those from all social classes, of all ethnicities, sexualities and genders, and typical pantomime audiences consist of young and old - from tiny babies to octogenarians.
There are jokes, songs, and slapstick sketches that appeal to children, and one-liners and innuendos that have the adults smirking and sometimes laughing out loud.
Despite the different backgrounds and ages of theatre-goers, it is the audience participation, the jokes at the expense of neighbouring towns, and the familiar one-liners that create a real sense of camaraderie. It is only really during a pantomime that the theatre is so inclusive, and that theatre audiences are more diverse and more accurately reflect society.
Those working in the world of theatre often look down on the art of pantomime, but if pantos are selling out two shows a day in towns and cities across the UK, and bringing through theatre doors audiences who would never choose to see a play, a ballet, or an opera, then they must be doing something right.

As of Monday, June 17, 2013
© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday struck down an Arizona state law that requires people registering to vote in federal elections to show proof of citizenship.
In a 7-2 vote, the court said the voter registration provision of the 2004 state law, known as Proposition 200, was trumped by a federal law, the 1993 National Voter Registration Act.
The federal law requires prospective voters to provide one of several possible forms of identification, such as a driver's license or a passport, but no proof of citizenship is needed. Would-be voters simply sign a statement saying they are citizens.
In the majority opinion, Justice Antonin Scalia said the state law was preempted by language in the federal statute saying that states must "accept and use" a federal registration form.
The state law ordered officials to reject the form if there was no accompanying proof of citizenship.
Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito were the two dissenters.
The case began when Arizona residents, civil rights groups and Indian tribes sued to challenge the state measure, which they said discriminated against otherwise eligible voters - among them members of more than a score of Native American tribes across the rugged desert state, some of whom struggle to meet additional requirements.
Arizona, which shares a border with Mexico, has a reputation for passing tough anti-immigration laws that have brought it into conflict with the Obama administration.
The Arizona voter registration measure is one of many nationwide championed by Republicans and put in place at the state level. Democrats say the measures are intended to make it more difficult for certain voters who tend to vote Democratic to cast ballots.
The case is Arizona v. Inter Tribal Council of Arizona, U.S. Supreme Court, No. 12-71.

Richard Lugar
FreedomWorks Loses the Senate
November 07, 2012
FreedomWorks shot for the Senate this year, and fell far short.
Despite Their Losses Last Night, Republicans Have One Trick Left: Gridlock
November 07, 2012
Republicans still control one of the key systems of American government.
How the Media is Enabling the GOP's Rightward Drift
May 11, 2012
Richard Lugar's loss in Tuesday night's primary has been heralded by commenters on both sides of the aisle as a harbinger of doom for moderate Republicans. The conventional wisdom has quickly congealed: Lugar lost because he voted for Barack Obama's Supreme Court candidates, worked with Obama on an arms control treaty, and was generally not partisan enough for a GOP dominated by the Tea Party. That interpretation is plausible. But it's not the only, or even the most likely scenario.
Who Ever Said Dick Lugar Was a Moderate?
May 10, 2012
In 2010, John Danforth, a former Republican Senator from Missouri, was asked about the possibility of a GOP primary challenge to Indiana Senator Richard Lugar. Danforth pointed out that Lugar was a six-term Senator, one of the Senate's most respected members, and its leading authority on foreign policy. He warned that "If Dick Lugar … is seriously challenged by anybody in the Republican Party, we have gone so far overboard that we are beyond redemption." Many commentators will draw precisely that message from Lugar's defeat Tuesday night by his Tea Party-aligned challenger Richard Mourdock.
Barack Obama, Heir To The Confederacy
April 11, 2012
Florida Rep. Allen West, the Tea Partier notable for being one of two African-American Republicans in the House freshman class, is making headlines today for his dead-serious assertion that "about 78 to 81" House Democrats "are members of the Communist Party." But I'm surprised that there hasn't been more said about another recent comment with a historical tinge—the declaration by Richard Mourdock, the conservative challenging Sen. Richard Lugar in the Indiana Republican primary, that Barack Obama and today's Democrats are the true heirs to the Confederacy.
The Predictable Demise Of Dick Lugar
February 22, 2011
When you see a primary challenge against a long-time member of Congress, the incumbent usually enjoys the advantage of at least nominal support from the party establishment.
Conservative Crosshairs
December 15, 2010
Republicans are poised to take over the U.S. Senate in 2012. This isn't contingent on a GOP presidential win, or even a particularly good campaign year, but rather on the extremely tilted Senate playing field created by the 2006 Democratic landslide. Yet, oddly, that is no comfort for many sitting Republican senators, who may face savage primary challenges if they are even perceived to slight the conservative base.
If You Die In A Terrorist Attack, Remember This Moment
November 22, 2010
Probably the most serious long-term threat to American security is the possibility that terrorists will acquire an unsecured nuclear weapon. It's therefore terrifying that Republicans are holding up the START Treaty that secures that material: Let's start with START, the proposed nuclear pact with Russia that Senate Republicans such as Jon Kyl (Ariz.) are attempting to derail, at least until the next Congress. Since the expiration of the previous START treaty last December, there have been no U.S. inspectors in Russia to keep an eye on the country's thousands of nuclear warheads.
Rest Assured, Ladies. Protecting Rights in Afghanistan, Mrs. Clinton Assures, "Is A Personal Commitment of Mine."
July 22, 2010
The Kabul conference has come and gone, a half day fest which put the finishing touches on the plans for Afghani security and how it can be helped by fully 70 governments, all in attendance, and, of course, with the United Nations represented by its secretary general Ban Ki-Moon. On Monday, Mrs. Clinton was in Pakistan; on Tuesday, Kabul; on Wednesday, South Korea, right onto the edge of its demilitarized zone with North Korea. Today, she is in Hanoi and, of course, she has reproached the government of Vietnam for its well-documented contempt for human rights. So we know she travels well.
The Death Of Market Environmentalism
June 16, 2010
The market is a much more efficient tool to reduce carbon emissions than command-and-control regulations. The downside is that it's more transparent about the costs it imposes. Regulation attacks the problem less efficiently, but the costs are entirely hidden. So that's the direction policy is going, points out David Leonhardt, even among supposedly market-loving Republicans: Accepting higher costs is especially hard when the economy is weak. So Congressional Democrats have been repackaging their energy bills to make them look less and less market-oriented.

The Theatre Historical Society of America (THS) is thrilled to announce the winner of its 2014 Outstanding Book of the Year Award to author David Sechrest for his book "Columbus, Indiana's Historic Crump Theatre" published in 2013.
Awarded yearly, the Outstanding Book of the Year Award recognizes authors who are actively documenting and celebrating historic American theatres both locally and nationally.
Published in 2013 by The History Press, Sechrest's book examines the history and role of the Crump Theatre in the lives of the people of Columbus since its construction as an opera house in the late 1880s. In addition to covering the Crump, Sechrest delves into the fabled history of other Columbus opera houses and theaters and the historical struggle to establish a place for themselves in a small mid-western town.
Sechrest is also the creator of the Historic Columbus Indiana website (historiccolumbusindiana.org) that over the past thirteen years, has become a central point for local untold historic accounts. This is his first published book.
"We're proud to recognize David for his contribution to the field – without passionate historians like David, the history of local jewels like the Crump would go unrecognized," said Richard Fosbrink, Executive Director of THS, "we're thrilled to be able to add this book to our research library for others to access."
50% of sales from Sechrest's book will be donated to the Heritage Fund of Bartholomew County to support the Crump Theatre. Copies can be purchased online at amazon.com.
Are you publishing a book in 2014? Nominate it for the 2015 Outstanding Book of the Year Award online via this form.

Despite homering on the first pitch he saw in the big leagues, Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Starling Marte could be on the move. He's being discussed in deals for Hunter Pence and Shin-Soo Choo. … The Washington Nationals expect Jayson Werth back next weekend, possibly as early as Tuesday when the Philadelphia Phillies visit. He could be a big part of the story line in September and October. … The Chicago Cubs' Bryan LaHair is a possibility for the Baltimore Orioles as they search for ways to improve at the infield corners. Their primary target is San Diego's Chase Headley but a lot of teams are after him. … The Oakland Athletics came close to getting Hanley Ramirez from the Miami Marlins and could wind up with Yunel Escobar from the Toronto Blue Jays. General Manager Billy Beane is serious about upgrading, with shortstop and catcher among the glaring needs. … A.J. Griffin, one of 17 rookies the A's have used, is the first A's pitcher to start his career with six quality starts since Jesse Flores in 1943. … Casey Stengel's former home in Glendale is on the market for $2.4 million. The house sits on one acre and features five bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, a pool and tennis courts. … One reason the Colorado Rockies moved Marco Scutaro to the San Francisco Giants is so they can turn second base over to Josh Rutledge, who is playing short while Troy Tulowitzki is on the disabled list. Rutledge could be a big part hitting in front of Tulowitzki and Carlos Gonzalez.

ESPAÑOLA – It wasn't so long ago when folks around the Los Alamos Hilltopper wrestling program were asking if the team could sneak into the top three at the district tournament.
The question has become, in a relatively short period of time, whether the other teams in district are going to be able to hang with the Hilltoppers.
The answer to that question, at least for the 2012-13 season, is no.
Saturday, Los Alamos picked up a solid win in the District 2-4A championship tournament at Edward Medina Gymnasium. Los Alamos didn't end up wrestling quite as well as it had hoped coming in, but it was still good enough to earn 170.5 points, nearly 30 points better than runner-up Capital.
Capital, which appeared to be Los Alamos' closest competitor for a team title coming in, had an uneven showing at the tournament and couldn't make up for it despite a solid showing in the final round.
The win by the Hilltoppers was their second straight 2-4A title. They broke a nearly 20-year dry spell by grabbing the district title last season.
Los Alamos head coach Bob Geyer said he knew as long as his team came out to perform Saturday, its chances of winning another title were excellent.
