- Monitoring of Individual Needs in Diabetes (MIND)-2 : follow-up data from the cross-national Diabetes Attitudes, Wishes, and Needs (DAWN) MIND study. (2012)
- OBJECTIVE: To test the effects of implementing computer-assisted Monitoring of Individual Needs in Diabetes (MIND) in routine diabetes care on psychological status and glycemic control, identify predictors of poor psychological outcomes, and evaluate care providers' experiences. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: The MIND procedure was implemented as part of the annual review in diabetes clinics across eight countries in a prospective observational study with a 1-year follow-up. MIND encompasses well-being (World Health Organization Five Well-Being Index [WHO-5]), diabetes-related distress (Problem Areas in Diabetes [PAID]), a Life Event Inventory, and the patient's agenda for their consultation. Medical data and agreed case-management actions were retrieved from the charts. RESULTS: Of the total 1,567 patients, 891 patients (57%) were monitored at a 1-year follow-up. Twenty-eight percent of the patients screened positive for depression and/or diabetes distress at baseline and considered cases, 17% of whom were receiving psychological care. Cases were significantly more often female and had type 2 diabetes and worse glycemic control compared with noncases. Clinically relevant improvements in WHO-5 and PAID were observed over time in cases, irrespective of referral (effects sizes 0.59 and 0.48, respectively; P < 0.0001). Glycemic control did not change. Female sex, life events, and concomitant chronic diseases were predictors of poor psychological outcomes. MIND was well received by patients and staff. CONCLUSIONS: MIND appears suitable for screening and discussion of emotional distress as part of the annual review. Broader dissemination in diabetes care is recommendable, but sustainability will depend on reimbursement and availability of support services.
- Diabetes as a case study of chronic disease management with a personalized approach : The role of a structured feedback loop (2012)
- As non-communicable or chronic diseases are a growing threat to human health and economic growth, political stakeholders are aiming to identify options for improved response to the challenges of prevention and management of non-communicable diseases. This paper is intended to contribute ideas on personalized chronic disease management which are based on experience with one major chronic disease, namely diabetes mellitus. Diabetes provides a pertinent case of chronic disease management with a particular focus on patient self-management. Despite advances in diabetes therapy, many people with diabetes still fail to achieve treatment targets thus remaining at risk of complications. Personalizing the management of diabetes according to the patient's individual profile can help in improving therapy adherence and treatment outcomes. This paper suggests using a six-step cycle for personalized diabetes (self-)management and collaborative use of structured blood glucose data. E-health solutions can be used to improve process efficiencies and allow remote access. Decision support tools and algorithms can help doctors in making therapeutic decisions based on individual patient profiles. Available evidence about the effectiveness of the cycle's constituting elements justifies expectations that the diabetes management cycle as a whole can generate medical and economic benefit.
- Regional (in-)variability of vowel space organisation in Scottish Standard English (2012)
- In this chapter an analysis of psychoacoustically transformed and normalized acoustic vowel data from sixteen speakers of Scottish Standard English (SSE) are presented. Apart from a general discussion of the findings against the background of current textbook descriptions of the accent, special attention will be paid to possible effects the regional provenance of speakers has on the organisation of their vowel spaces. The three regions in question are Edinburgh, Northern Central Scotland (Stirlingshire, West Fife & South Angus) and the Northeast (Aberdeenshire). The resulting vowel plots correspond rather well to articulatory and impressionistic descriptions in the literature and share most of the characteristics of SSE, for instance a rather front /u/ and a considerably centralised /ɪ/. It can also be shown that with regard to some vowel features, the regional background of speakers plays a modest role. While the limitations of the corpus do not allow to generalise very far, the chapter points the direction to future research on regional variation within Scottish Standard English.
- The effect of an education programme (MEDIAS 2 ICT) involving intensive insulin treatment for people with type 2 diabetes (2012)
- The reach of depression screening preceding treatment: are there patterns of patients' self-selection? (2012)
- A dynamic spatial panel data approach to the German wage curve (2012)
- "A wage curve is a decreasing function of wages on the regional unemployment rate. Most empirical studies on the wage curve ignore possible spatial interaction effects between the regions which are the primary units of research. This paper reconsiders the western German wage curve with a special focus on the geography of labour markets. Spillovers between regions are taken into account. The paper tests whether the unemployment rate in the larger surrounding region also affects wages. In addition, agglomeration effects and effects of local monopsony are assessed. The main database is a random sample of 974,179 employees observed over the period 1980–2004 and covering 326 NUTS3 units (districts). This rich data set is used to estimate a dynamic wage curve according to the two-step approach of Bell et al. (2002). In the first step one controls for individual heterogeneity and in the second step one allows for spatial effects of unemployment across regions on wages. We check the sensitivity of this wage elasticity to various spatial weight matrices as well as allowing for the endogeneity of unemployment. We also estimate the wage elasticity for various population groups."
- Measuring Regional Inequality : An Index of Socio-Economic Pressure for Serbia (2012)
- This paper analyses the Serbian socio-economic spatial differentiation via a purely quantitative approach. In Serbia, huge development disparities between north and south, urban and rural as well as central and peripheral areas are obvious. Getting to the bottom of these spatial differences is one of the fundamental scientific and planning challenges of the region. This question of unevenly distributed living conditions is examined on the basis of factor analyses of secondary statistical data of the Serbian municipalities. The intention thereby was to identify the distribution of regional or spatial inequality by correlating an amount of 25 reliable variables. Combining the spheres of population structure, economy, employment, infrastructure, pre-school education and medical care an overall Index of Socio-economic Pressure is proposed to detect patterns of regional development on the Serbian territory.

This is my 3rd digital piece- I normally paint traditionally but figured that if I want an industry job I'm going to have to cross over at some point! It's my boyfriend's Warlock character, Constayn, and her Felguard from World of Warcraft. I am about 65% finished I'd say...
I wonder if anyone sees any mistakes that I can still catch and correct at this point, or any overall suggestions they think would be worthwhile! This is only my third photoshop attempt so my brain is still fresh for absorbing new habits (both bad and good)! If you want to see my other 2 digital attempts they are in my sketchbook linked in my sig- then you can see where I'm coming from
Let me know what you think, and thank you for being patient with my learning process!

A park with real potential, but I had a few issues with it. The park has no services or showers, which is fine, but they allow generator use all day long, rather than just between certain hours, which destroys the peace. If that weren't bad enough, one day there were mowers running all day, and another day, they had a massive chipper operating for hours, shredding trees. It was very noisy. The RV side of the park is cramped, and there was only one spot on my site where I could get my slide out. I noticed this problem with a number of the sites. There are some sites where you will not be able to open any slides. I did walk through the tent side of the park one day, and it was really nice. They allow camper vans and pickup campers on that side. The sites are three times as big, and extremely private in that area. There is no cell service, even by antenna, and no wifi. - KAP99

Stayed at this KOA over the weekend and was unbelievably impressed. You can tell that it's a labor of love for the owners. We pulled up and were welcomed by a waving greeter. Check in was no problem. Then escorted back to our spot. The entire campground is extremely neat and beautifully maintained. Spots were VERY roomy and private feeling. Overall, I would recommend it. Would definitely go back. Thanks again for a great stay! - Curtis R
Jul 2014 - $48.00
Sites are large, level, on gravel with grass "yard". Many trees have been trimmed or cut back so the roads are more navigable than in the past. The new owners keep the place very clean, and are very friendly. The new bathrooms are individual rooms with toilet, sink, shower and are clean. Since this is in a rural area there is little to no over the air TV, cable is not available, and the satellite WIFI is slow. We have stayed here before, and will stay here again. - 2hams
Jun 2014 - $42.00
We were here two years ago when this campground was called Wildwood. At the time it had new owners. Since then, they partnered with KOA and the park has become more family friendly. Sites are either gravel or concrete pad. We were on a very large comfortable pull-thru on a gravel site and did have to level one side, but once set up, no problems. New bath houses are kept very clean and trash is picked up at your site every day. They also have a central location for those that recycle, which we do. The owners are very friendly as are the employees. The pool was immaculate and crystal clear! There are rental cabins in the park and tent sites are located near the lake. The only negative thing about this park is that the internet is the worst! I hope they can get that worked out, since, at least for us, the internet is important. Because of the internet service I must give an 8, but I hope I change it to a 10 when we come back again in August. We will camp here again. - CapeGreen

Based on the nuclear pumped laser technique, an optical self-powered neutron detector is now being investigated, in the JAERI Advanced Science Research Center. The first experiment has been made using lasing gas cells with three components of He-3 gas (1140 mmHg), Ne gas (588 mmHg) and H2 gas (206 mmHg or 412 mmHg), or Ar gas (206 mmHg) instead of H2 gas in a thermal neutron flux of about 109n/cm2 sec. For this irradiation, optical light of 585.3 nm from the transition of Ne 3P1→3S2 has been observed clearly from those gas cells. The optical light output was increased according to the reactor power and the measurement of the optical attenuation coefficient of 585.3 nm in this gas has been made and is found to decrease for increasing neutron flux. From these results, the nuclear pumped laser can be expected to be in operation above a neutron flux of 1011n/cm2·sec. The second experiment is now under preparation

This is a wonderful spin, which was forced from CHK (since CHK needed the capital to pay down debt). It is presently depressed in price from a sector cyclical down-turn. Buying in now (or before the sector turns) should provide out-sized returns.
I own it from the spin-off, so for now, I'm keepin' it.

VIDEO: Pistons' Brandon Knight blows wide-open layup
Before it gets better for Pistons guard Brandon Knight, it's going to get a little worse.
First, Kyrie Irving snapped his ankles in the Rising Stars game. Then DeAndre Jordan killed him on an alley-oop. Then he rolled his ankle a game after that.
And now, he's added a self-inflicted wound by blowing a wide-open layup against the Celtics on Wednesday.
Not just any layup either. It came with around two minutes remaining and the Pistons down three. Oof. (The Pistons went on to lose, 98-93.)
Thing is, Knight has had a bit of a breakout year in his second season, averaging 13.2 points and 4.0 assists for the Pistons while showing flashes of being a really nice point guard. He's just had some rough spots this season.

Yes. Many products seem to have an "overspill" at each end (older and younger). How does Auti "know" about positive or negative interactions? Through the sensors?

I do appreciate the wonderful work you have done for the trailer. It's great how the videos of the 1990s and Eliza's dilemma of 2010 are worked in the trailer. I hope we will always remember: "I am not a disability...I am a person". All best for…

Didn't know that they could recall the horse & buggy….
The company that made the car probably went out of business a long time ago
Unfortunately, most mechanics aren't old enough to recall working on a car without a computer.
'What country does this car come from?'
'It … no longer exists..,'
Pluggers just "recall" their glory days and the cars that went with them.
That bug is newer than mine was—-my bumper was just metal ('66).
B-52 pilots are Pluggers, the planes are older than most of the pilots.
Wait, does somebody have a running Yugo?
…you know you're a "plugger" if your car leaves a large spot in the drive way.
And every now and then, I get a call to get a warranty on my van which didn't even have a warranty when I bought it from it's previous owner. It's too damn old to have a warranty of any kind. It still runs great too.
The curved glass windshield means it is a newer bug-Superbug?
I have a friend who has a pretty nice looking, fully intact Yugo that he now stores in winters and drives about 500 miles a year (it has roughly 70k miles on it). This is in Michigan.
pluggers have trouble 'recalling' their own cars when we return to the parking lot……
That is interesting.
People maligned a lot of cars in their day, that are now considered collectible.
Because Yugos had such low values, it only took a little ding to total loss them.
At least in the US, most of them probably ended up crushed.
Your friend may have a rare car in his Yugo.
That's funny.
Anyone else remember trying to unlock the door of the wrong car.
The worst part, is sometimes the key in your hand would fit the lock on someone else's car.

Mario Götze (born 3 June 1992) is a German footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Bayern Munich and the Germany national team. Although his favored position is that of a playmaker, he can also be deployed as a striker or winger. Götze is considered to be one of the sport's best young players, possessing speed, technique, dribbling skills, and play-making capabilities. In 2010, German Football Association's then technical director Matthias Sammer described Götze as "one of the best talents Germany has ever had."Wikipedia

Heretic Demo
editor's review
buy now €4.99
The first-person shooter formula seems simple enough, when you look at it today; all you need is a couple of guns and people/monsters to shoot at, coupled with some interesting environments to sketch the proper atmosphere. However, these elements are a product of modern technology, because regardless of how facile and intuitive they might appear now, there was a time when they were not technologically feasible, especially not in the form we can enjoy them today.
The undead invasion needs to be stopped
Developed by the long-time visionaries at Raven Software, Heretic is basically a Doom clone with fantasy elements, which means that the action takes place in a classic fantasy world, rather than on Mars. But, id Software was involved in the project as well, so the similarities should not be at all surprising, given the fact that the graphics engine is the same and even some of the in-game elements have been directly transferred with little-to-no modification.
The events that transpire over the course of the game involve the usual fantasy ideas, including elves, powerful wizards and blood-thirsty demons. Your role is to dethrone the evil sorcerers that have enslaved the elven race, namely the so called Serpent Riders. Along the way, you must pass through locations like Hell's Maw and City of the Damned, which are obviously crawling with unsavory creatures anxious to spill some heretic blood.
Pick-up powerful items and find the keys
Just like in Doom, your main goal for every level is to find the keys that unlock the way further, which is obviously easier said than done. On the other hand, you are equipped with some pretty powerful weapons, so progress mainly depends on your ability to shoot straight and do as much damage as you can. Potions, ammunition and various other items can be found by exploring the levels and the inventory comes in handy if you want to make use of the scavenged loot resting in your backpack.
As previously mentioned, the graphics engine used by Heretic is the same as in Doom, so it should look quite familiar to those who played id Software's masterpiece. However, the developers did modify it slightly to better fit their needs, while also adding a few new features. Naturally, the pixelated environments and the low resolution might turn you away now, but you need to remember that the game came out two decades ago.
High difficulty level and plenty of content to keep you busy
All things considered, Heretic is not exactly a gem and it certainly could have used a bit more originality, since it often feels too much like Doom. On the other hand, it did bring its fair share of innovations to the genre, albeit it failed to be as imposing as its spiritual successor, Hexen.

Miss Nelson Is Missing! (1977)
by Harry Allard
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I really like this book for many reasons. First, the writing is very engaging, organized, and flows. An example of the writing that flowed would be "But the class would not settle down. They whispered and giggled. They squirmed and made face. They were even rude during story hour. And they always refused to do their lessons." This shows how the students behavior was unacceptable. Second, the characters were believable and well-developed. Miss Nelson is the main character and her position as a teacher is very believable. The students also make the story believable because students are often rowdy and disruptive when their teachers do not have any control. Last, the plot is well organized and suspenseful. An example of this would be when Miss Nelson goes missing and the students are given Miss Viola Swamp. Miss Viola Swamp was mean and loaded the students with homework. The suspenseful comes in when the students are trying to find where Miss Nelson has gone. The main purpose of this book is never take anything for granted because once it's gone, there no guarantee that it will come back.
This story takes place in a class of very badly behaved class. Their very sweet teacher disappears and is replaced with a very mean homework loving new teacher. The kids wonder where their nice teacher went and start to look for her. After days with the mean teacher, their nice teacher appears as quickly and mysteriously as she disappeared. The kids behave much better after the nice teacher returns. This is a fun book that can be read to younger kids or read by kids that are a little older but can be enjoyed by all, just for fun or even to hint at the kids needing to behave.
Miss Nelson Is Missing is a great book for teachers who sometimes just need to feel appreciated. It is all so a great book to teach children to appreciate their teachers. In this story a classes teacher does not show up one day and they get a very mean substitute. At the end of the story their teacher comes back to them and the class realizes how much they took their teacher for granted. This is a book for more experienced readers maybe around 3rd, or fourth grade. When we read this book during media time my media teacher had a write down a list of reasons that we appreciated our teacher, then she made all of our teachers a poster about how much they are appreciated. The illustrations in this book are very interesting because they are very simple, yet very 3D, and complex at the same time. The chalk like texture draws the eye on every page. This is a wonderful book, that I encourage every teacher to read if they are ever feeling down.
Miss Nelson is Missing! is one of my favorite children's book series, and this book in particular, the original, "Miss Nelson is Missing!" is my favorite of the series. The reasons that I enjoy this book is because of it's illustrations, characters, and the plot. The illustrations throughout the book make it more interesting and humorous. For example, on pages four and five, there are images of Miss Nelson's students misbehaving and on page nine, it shows each child in the class with a different evil looking smirk on his/her face, showing that they are up to no good. This is when you could tell that these students were going to get what was coming to them. On page eight it says, "Now we can really act up!" when the students heard that Miss Nelson was not coming to school that day. That is when they found out that their substitute teacher was Miss Viola Swamp, a harsh and tough teacher who was very strict as a teacher. She did not deal with any funny business in her classroom. The illustration of Miss Swamp showed her wearing an all black dress with black hair, black makeup, and she had a nasty look on her face. This made Miss Swamp seem even more scary as a character/teacher in the book. The illustration of her is perfect to fit the story. Also, the plot of the story is well planned out when Miss Swamp assigns the children an enormous amount of homework and gets them right to work every day in school, so as to teach them a lesson about respecting the teacher. This all leads to the big idea/message of the story, which will be discussed in the next paragraph. The last thing I liked about this book was how the author created the characters. He made Miss Nelson a sweet lady who the students thought they could take advantage of and not listen to. Also, he made Miss Swamp the mean teacher who got straight to business and did not deal with misbehavior. He also made the students change drastically throughout the book which was the best part. The children all thought they could misbehave and take advantage of Miss Nelson, but once Miss Swamp came in as their teacher, they learned that they would rather have Miss Nelson back because she was nice to them and she would be a fun teacher. The way the students faces change throughout the story shows their growth as they gain respect for Miss Nelson. For example, on page nine the students are smirking and acting up, then on page 15, they seem very sad because of how strict and mean Miss Swamp was being, and last, on page 29, all of the students are smiling and happy because Miss Nelson returned. The author transitions the events of the book smoothly.
The overall big idea/message of the book is to respect your teacher. No matter how nice or mean a teacher may be, you should respect them no matter what. It is important to appreciate the opportunity of having a nice teacher because if you respect her, she will continue to be kind and respect you. If you have a mean teacher, you will wish you had a kind teacher. Regardless of a teacher being nice or mean, easy going or strict, if you respect the teacher, the teacher will respect you as well.
I loved this as a kid (and Viola Swamp stuck in my dad's memory, as well). The worst-behaved class with the nicest teacher gets a surprise when sweet Miss Nelson goes missing, and is replaced by Viola Swamp, who is strict and gives them lots of homework. When Miss Nelson returns, the kids are glad to have her back - and much reformed. Though the kids don't catch on, readers will notice some pretty clear indicators about Miss Nelson's alter ego.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0395401461, Paperback)
The kids in Room 207 were misbehaving again. Spitballs stuck to the ceiling. Paper planes whizzing through the air. They were the worst-behaved class in the whole school.
So begins this quirky classic, first published in 1977 and still relevant today as a lighthearted reminder to show our appreciation to those we value. The students don't proffer a shred of respect for their good-natured teacher Miss Nelson, but when the witchy substitute Miss Viola Swamp appears on the scene, they start to regret their own wicked ways. James Marshall's scritchy, cartoonish full-color ink and wash illustrations are hilarious. A back-to-school perennial!

The kids in Room 207 take advantage of their teacher's good nature until she disappears and they are faced with a vile substitute.

text: The Pennsylvania-bred Live broke out of the Buzz Bin with their first full-length Mental Jewelry, a self-righteous whirl of pummeling bass lines, arena-ready riffs, and didactic lyrics thrown down by preacher-like frontman Ed Kowalczyk. Throwing Copper (which, like Jewelry, was produced by Talking Heads' Jerry Harrison) continued down the latter path with abandon, and audiences responded in kind — the album spawned four singles that hit the top ten on the Modern Rock Tracks chart, including the jittery "Selling the Drama," the tortured slow-burn "I Alone," the kinda power-ballady "All Over You," and the mini-epic "Lightning Crashes" (Number 12 on the Hot 100) which forever seared the image of a placenta falling to the floor into radio listeners' collective cortex.

The newest quarterly wallpaper is now available!
A note about this quarter's wallpaper. Assistant Sister Karen is, as some of you might recall, an artist in addition to helping me out with many things, and I asked her to make me some custom graphics for a book video for Time Thief. She's been busily doing that, and we decided to use one of the images from that for this quarterly wallpaper. So instead of the normal type of wallpaper image, you get a highly artsy version. Yay for culture, right?
I've mentioned it elsewhere, and at last the doors are ready to swing open on the Katie Mac street team, AKA Mobile Minions!
What's a street team, you ask? The Mobile Minions are a grass-roots organization of Katie MacAlister readers who wish to help spread the word about Katie's books via online and street promotions, referred to as "Missions." Participants are rewarded with Katie Swag, which includes exclusive for-street-team-only items like a Desktop Hero, mirrors, keychains, handmade-by-Katie book thongs, and much more.
If you're interested in joining the Mobile Minions, drop by the info page and read up on what it entails. Be warned that it may take a few days for us to process folks and get them into the Super Secret Minion Hangout (on Facebook). Also keep in mind that actual Missions won't begin until late March.
Please feel free to share news of the street team formation. In addition to individuals, we're happy to have booksellers, librarians, and readers' groups be a part of the Minion fun.
Let fly the doves! The street team is gathering!
Yes, I just wrote those words in my in-progress book.
You're welcome.

In a number of fields, techniques are required for searching candidate genes for mutations that underlie hereditary diseases. We have used the denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis method (DGGE)1 using the Bio-Rad DCode system to identify a number of new, as well as known, mutations and polymorphisms in the genes for apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) and apolipoprotein B (apoB).
Materials And Methods
Genomic DNA was prepared from patients with dyslipidemia. Segments of the apoA-I and apoB genes were amplified from genomic DNA using a temperature cycler (Ericomp Inc., San Diego, CA). Both oligonucleotide primers had GC clamps.2 Following restriction endonuclease digestion, the samples were subjected to DGGE.
The amplification reactions were performed in 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 9 (at
25 C), 20 mM (NH4)2SO4, 1.5 mM MgCl2, 200 M of each dNTP, 1 unit of
Hot Tub polymerase (Amersham Life Science Inc., Cleveland, OH), 15 pmol
of each primer and a minimum of 200 ng of DNA in a total volume of 50
l. After initial denaturation at 96 C for 1 minute, PCR* was carried
out for a total of 33 cycles at an annealing temperature of 62 C (apoA-I)
or 58 C (apoB), in each case for 30 s. The denaturing and elongation
steps were 96 C for 30 s and 72 C for 60 s. A final elongation step
of 8 minutes at 72 C w

I am really not into Middle Eastern food but this soup was a bit different to soups I already make. Family liked it and came back for seconds.It is very easy to make but I had to go out and buy the spices for it. I used a tin of green lentils as Coles did not have red lentils on the shelf. I would make this soup again.
I changed this soup a little, after frying the onions I added a tbs of garam marsal and 1 tsp of cumin seeds to the onions and waited till they became fragrant. I then put in the stock, added the stock and 2 chopped potatos and replaced the lentils with chana dahl. Put into a pressure cooker for 6 minutes (you could still just simmer till the lentils or dahl are tender). I then added a bunch of english spinach and juice of 1/2 lemon. I finished it off by bringing the soup to the boil, swirling the liquid and add two eggs to it, continue to gentle swirl with a wooden spoon until the whites are cooked. I then served up two bowls with an egg in each. There was soup left over of course. Absolutely delicisious. I think adding the spices to the onions put more flavour into the soup.
This doesn't taste anything like the real Lebanese soup, it's not supposed to be spicy but should have lemon
nice and easy, I added 1 teaspoon of sumac and the juice of 1 lemon.
Very easy but kind of watery. Much better on the second day after its had a chance to thicken up. Nice for something different.
Was so looking forward to this being vegetarian, but unfortunately it is just too spicy for me. Even added another cup of water but it's still not 100% to my liking.
I added 1 small lemon worth of juice once I had taken the pot off the stove and let it cool a bit, adds a bit of depth to the flavour and really sets off the garam masala and cumin. Also, they are quite strong spices so don't go thinking it needs more than that. I used a 'soup mix' which is a pack of lentils, split peas, pearls and barley and it went really well. Gave it a lot of texture as well.
This is a very quick and easy soup to make. I think you need to add salt though, otherwise it's a little bland tasting.
I love it! Use silverbeet from the garden instead of spinach. Good to freeze and take to work for lunch.
Excellent soup. Easy and very tasty. Didn't have ground cumin, but used cumin seeds instead. Lemon juice stirred through at the end is a must. Will definately make it again.
was not what I expected and the herbs were a little overpowering.
Oh, this is a favourite! I love it so much! I add fresh lemon juice at the end. Delicious! And so healthy!
Really easy recipe, first time cooking lentils and it worked beautifully! Having it for lunch again today. Used silverbeet from the garden instead of spinach and worked a treat...
Wasn't too hard to make and didn't take too much time, but mine turned out much thicker than I expected. Family liked it, but I didn't. :P
Just made it for lunch, think tastes will intensify by tomorrow. Nice and light.
simple and easy with a great taste and nutritious too!
Very easy to make, lovely 'earthy' flavours. I added a good squeeze of lemon and swirled yoghurt on top to serve. The addition of the lemon and youghurt really lifted the flavours. Definitely one to make again.
Did Muna and Mials use red lentils? Red lentils should only take 15 minutes as indicated in the recipe. Brown lentils would take a lot longer. This soup is yummy with red or brown lentils.
This is a family favourite in my household. So easy to make, so yummy and so healthy!
This soup is lovely, but like Muna, I think the lentils need longer. I have found it better to simmer the lentils for one hour or more before adding the spinach etc. Yum.
Never cooked lentils before so was not sure if I should have soaked them first. They turned out a little crunchy but edible. The marsala and cumin create a very strong flavour. Served with a squeeze of lemon.

I Should Have Worn Two Sports Bras to Zumba Class and Other Lessons Learned
By Mary-Leah on July 17, 2014
Featured Member Post
My friend Sheryl invited me to join her in a Zumba class. This was my very first Zumba class, so I didn't know what to expect. I'm kidding -- I knew exactly what to expect. Because I did my research, people! I read TWO whole articles online about what to expect at your first Zumba class. In one article, there was a photo of some very fit-looking women jumping like gazelles. I figured that was just for advertising effect. Surely there would be no actual JUMPING in a fitness class? I'm more of a low-impact girl myself, and by that I mean no impact.
I'm sorry to report there WAS actual jumping. Had I known, I would have worn two sports bras. Or six. Or perhaps duct-taped my boobs flat against my chest so as not to knock myself out.
I sort of improvised my jumping, and by that, I mean I didn't really jump. I just sort of moved my body up and down to make it LOOK like I was jumping, but the instructor was moving so fast I'm sure nobody noticed.
I mean, I am terribly uncoordinated. I own it. I flail like no other. But I expected at least sixteen counts of a movement series before things changed up. That way, by eight or so counts into it, I would have the basic movements down. But no. Everything was in four counts or even fewer, it seemed, so there was no time to even cover up my awkward movements and do the whole "Haha, did you see what I did there? I was off by a count or two, but I'm right in step now!"
I was NEVER in step.
Also, it turns out that I can't do a box step. I actually know what that is, and now I know I can't do it.
Additionally, I fail at the grapevine, which is probably the easiest dance step, ever. Instead of crossing my feet in back of me, I was alternating back to front and everything in between. I also learned that my hands cannot move in sync with my feet. That whole lasso over the head movement? My hands collided in mid-air.
It was apparent from the first five minutes that I would simply have to keep moving in order to get a workout in and look like a willing participant. (Although the jury is still out on that.) I tried very hard to follow the instructor, but I realized when there were only five minutes left that I had a much easier time following the older lady in front of me, who, for her age, could still pretty much shake her groove thang, but more like a normal person. Also, in the middle of the class everyone was suddenly facing each other and another lady took over and did some super sexy dance moves which she expected us to follow. I'm pretty sure I was born with a couple of fused vertebrae because my hips refused to move like hers. Instead, I'm afraid I looked like a twerking gorilla.
Also? There was no intermission. Or snacks. They expected us to move like that for a whole HOUR with no breaks. Barbaric, I tell you.
The gym had one of those upper levels with a walking track, and there was a guy on a stationary bike in the corner who I swear was looking at me every time I looked up. I may be mistaken because of the blur of sweat in my eyes, but I hoped I didn't look TOO sexy while gyrating to the Latin tunes. I mean, that would have just been embarrassing. Sorry, random gym guy. I was NOT trying to flirt with you, although I can see how you could have been misled by my provocative flailing.
The hour went surprisingly fast, and I never quite got out of my bewildered "What the hell are we doing now?" state. Before I knew it, we were doing moves at about half the pace, which was just about "fast" for me. Then, there was stretching, which was good, because I know how to do that. All my years of yoga and all. Yep, I'm a champion stretcher. Overall, I was very sweaty with a tomato-red face when it was over, but I survived.
I talked to the instructor, Kelly, as I was leaving, and explained it was my first Zumba class. She said to just keep coming back, that it would get easier. I think Kelly sits on a throne of LIES. The good news is, my pedometer measured over 7000 steps, which is, like, 3.5 miles, so basically I just did a 5K in an hour. BOOYAH!
