My GOOD ENOUGH is BETTER ENOUGH
Friday, August 12, 2011
Yippee!!!!!! !It is unbelievable that I have lost 1 lb in a day. This is a new dynamic of loss for me where loss results in gain. I have gained so much happiness, renewed zest to better my lifestyle, improved self esteem et al.
Life is so much easier when we express ourselves honestly and listen intently. We often call weight loss a lifestyle change but lately I have been thinking of it as a conversation. On my sparkpages, blissful walks, exercise mats and weighing scale, it becomes an intimate dialogue between my body, mind and heart, in which each part learns to express itself and listen to others. Sometimes, one of the trio is lazy, bossy or affected by virus excusitis and sparkpeople is a safe place for it to have its say and for others to show compassion and provide support.I have actually become addicted to sparkpeople and am logged on to it through the whole day.
I am trying to alter my relationship with food and look at as my friend. There are a million spins and angles that can be focused on for weight loss. Motivation to stay on top of things is the most essential element. Motivation is essential to lose weight. The success of any task depends upon a number of facts, but if one has to point out the most important and decisive of these facts, then it is definitely going to be motivation. It is a fact that although it is very easy to long for that perfect figure, it is extremely difficult to pull up my socks and stick to a slimming regimen rigorously. It is easier to work towards a goal where the result is obtained early. But losing weight is an arduous process where I have to watch what I put in my mouth and exercise regularly forever. The results of my efforts may not reflect on the weighing scale fast enough to make me happy. It is only the level of my motivation that can keep me going. The motivation to lose weigh makes me get up and exercise and to stick to a healthy, low carb diet. The initial few kilos are easy to shed. However, as the slimming regimen progresses, it becomes more and more difficult to maintain a steady fall in the weight. It is at this point that the motivation to lose weight plays a major role. And to remain motivated, I have to focus on all the benefits I will get by losing weight.
It�s time I bid adieu to losing weight so that it doesn�t find me again like a stray animal. It is time to say a final goodbye to extra kilos.

Good blog..Yes I had to admit to myself that in order to maintain my weight loss, I have to pay attention to nutrition and exercise the rest of my lifetime! Is this a punishment..I think not, because the good benefits far outweigh the negative! People tend to want results quickly, but just remember..It's a marathon not a sprint!!

Solar water pumping is one of the most efficient ways to utilize solar energy. Conventional energy sources involve either running extended lengths of wire or using a fossil fuel generator at the site. These traditional methods involve both expensive equipment costs, plus ongoing energy costs.
The Components of a Solar Water Pump System
A solar water pump is sized based on the depth of the well and amount of water needed. The pump is powered by an array of solar electric panels.
A solar water pumping system consists of four main parts: the pump, the pump controller, the solar electric panels and a storage unit.
The current between the solar electric panels and the pump is controlled by a pump controller, which protects the pump from fluctuations in the current and helps to provide a steady output. The pump controller can also shut down the pump if the pump is running dry. A float switch can be connected to the controller to shut off the pump once the storage tank has reached full capacity.
Storage for a solar water pumping system can be approached from two different angles. The most cost effective and reliable method is to install a large water storage tank that serves as a reservoir. This tank supplies water during the night and on days with low sunlight, when your solar pump is running at a lower output.
When planning a system with a water tank, be sure to select a solar pump that meets your total daily water needs and can provide excess water for storage. It is also possible to install batteries to run the pump on cloudy days and at night. Although this type of system is quite reliable, it does involve higher costs and more maintenance than the standard storage tank approach.

Apple\'s Jobs tweaks his $9M glass cubeApple Computer chief executive Steve Jobs is reported to have been unhappy with some of the materials used to construct his $9 million glass cube outside the future home of one of the company\'s flagship retail stores in Midtown Manhattan.
As a result, changes are already being made to the structure, which remains shrouded by large black panels as it awaits a formal unveiling alongside the 20,000-square-foot location later this spring.
When workers began removing the black plywood panels from the cube last week, it looked as if construction was nearly complete. However, a report on ifoAppleStore explains the workers were instead swapping out sophisticated titanium hardware — positioned between the glass panels — because Jobs complained they were too conspicuous and interrupted the esthetic of the cube.
It\'s been reported that Jobs personally designed and paid for the 32-foot-by-32-foot hollow glass structure, which will mark the top floor entrance to the underground retail store at 767 Fifth Avenue between 58th and 59th streets. In fact, reports have also indicated that leasing arrangements for the store were finalized only after landlord Harry Macklowe promised the Apple CEO he could take his big $9 million cube with him at the end of the 20-year lease.
People who have interviewed for positions at the upcoming location say Apple is working to open the store and glass cube to the public by the end of May. The store may be unique in that — in the city that never sleeps — it could be the first retail location from Apple to operate 24-hours a day. Apple, however, has thus far declined to comment on the rumors.

I'm not sure I can walk within a 50 km. radius of Mumbai after bugging the make-up artist I got on the phone when I called the MAC store in Mumbai. However, here's a brief look at some of the products customers seem to love at that location.
ME: What colour lipglosses do you sell often?
Make-up Artist Who Now Hates Me (shortened: MAWNHE): Revealing and Lust definitely.
ME: What colour lipsticks are very popular at your location?
MAWNHE: Umm, Hug Me, Taupe, Touch, and Double Shot.
ME: What colour blushes do people tend to favour?
MAWNHE: Well for fairer complexions it's something like Sincere and for darker complexions I'd say blushes like Coppertone.
Hope you enjoyed this and found it entertaining.

It's been a few months since I've submitted an article on this forum. The primary reason is that I was involved in a minor motorcycle accident during my morning commute, back in March. I was straddling my motorcycle while stopped at a stoplight, when a car came up behind me and clipped me on my right side. My motorcycle sustained very little damage. A bystander was able to start it right up, and ride it to a nearby parking lot. I sustained a broken right fibula (clean break, thankfully), and an almost separated right foot (at the ankle). I always wear all of my riding gear whenever I'm on my motorcycles; so my foot was probably saved, because I was wearing my service boots when I was struck by the car.
When the firefighter/paramedics arrived, my lower leg and ankle were slightly painful, but I wasn't able to put any weight on it, as I was helped off of the street and out of the intersection. I didn't think much of the whole caper: my motorcycle was still in one piece (or so I thought), I wasn't in a whole lot of pain (I've felt more pain after sparring), and I had plenty of lesson plans for my classes (I am, again, a public school teacher).
The paramedics and I engaged in small talk during our trip to the emergency room. I was upbeat. I was happy to be alive. If the car had actually rear-ended me, or if it had been traveling a little faster, I would have been killed on the spot. I turned down their offers of pain medication, and called my school to let them know that I wouldn't be stopping by for work, that day.
I was delivered to the local emergency room within minutes. The staff there was concerned that I might have been injured worse than I thought I had been, but I assured them that I was feeling very little pain. They regularly checked in on me, and I continued to assure them that I was okay. I ended up waiting for about two hours, before I was wheeled over to get my leg X-rayed.
During my two hours, I performed several sets of isometric exercises while seated on the gurney. I did sets of biceps curls, overhead triceps extensions, crunches, flutter kicks, leg scissors, shrugs, seated towel snatches (yeah, I got really creative), and seated towel pull ups. Each of the movements was executed with full range-of-motion, and slowly with total, deliberate focus. The flutter kicks were uncomfortable, as were the leg scissors, but I still didn't feel enough pain to justify stopping or modifying these exercises.
I had a light sweat going by the time I was wheeled off to get my leg X-rayed. The X-rays confirmed that my leg had been broken, and that my ankle was damaged. I was wheeled back to my spot in the emergency room, and briefed by the attending physician regarding her diagnosis, and her admonishment to see my regular doctor within the week, to schedule an appointment with a specialist. A nurse stopped by, within a few minutes, to reset my broken leg and damaged ankle for the splinting process. I was asked if I wanted to be medicated for this process. I declined the medication, flipped over onto my stomach, and reasoned to myself that anyone can endure three minutes of anything.
I had nobody to pick me up from the hospital. My father was always my, "go-to" person for these types of things, but he had passed away a few months ago. My mother didn't drive (she's in her early 80's), and my son was in class at a local college.
My second ex-wife picked me up at the hospital and drove me home. She even purchased two burritos from my favorite Latino restaurant! She shook her head, said that my new beard made me look ten years older, and asked where my motorcycle ended up. When we got to my place, I thanked her for picking me up and for purchasing the burritos, exited her car, and made my way into my house.
I now had the monumental task of learning how to get around with crutches. I soon learned that I had to plan different routes to use the toilet, and that I could no longer take a shower to bathe myself. When my son came home from school, I asked him to lay one of the heavy bags onto the Jiu Jitsu mats on the floor, and to roll over the dumbbells and one of the kettlebells nearby the supine heavy bag.
I shaved my beard, before going to sleep that night, ...

Prior to Saturday night's two-game homestand finale against the Northwest Arkansas Naturals, I had the chance to sit down with Tulsa Drillers outfielder Tyler Massey. Entering Saturday night's action, Massey was batting .162 with one homer and four RBIs. He also has swiped a team-leading five stolen bases. Last year at Class A Modesto, Massey posted a .267 average with 11 homers and 53 RBIs.
While Massey may be struggling at the plate with the Drillers, he has quickly established himself as one of Tulsa's defensive leaders. In the first two innings of Friday's game against the Naturals, Massey turned in a pair of defensive gems. In the first inning, he made a diving catch to rob Jorge Bonifacio of a hit. In the next frame, Massey fired a pinpoint throw to catcher Dustin Garneau after Parker Morin's single to keep Whit Merrifield from scoring.
Henry: Tulsa is off to a 10-11 start. Talk a little bit about how the early part of the season has gone for the team.
Massey: We've gotten off to an OK start. Our pitching has been outstanding and our bullpen has been wonderful. Our pitching has kept us in a lot of games and we've been able to win some of those. We have to be more sound fundamentally. When there are less than two outs, we have to be able to move the runner over and we haven't done that a lot this season. I like where we are and where we're heading. We just have to all continue to relax and not press. We have to trust our abilities and stick together as a team.
Henry: What about your season personally?
Massey: I started strong out of the gate, but I've been pressing a lot lately. I have to trust my abilities and keep swinging. Last night, I had a couple of good hits, but they turned into lineouts. I keep telling myself it's early and take things one bat at a time.
Henry: So when you're hitting the ball well but it's still resulting in outs, how do you keep your positive attitude?
Massey: I don't know the secret. I come to the ballpark every day and I'm grateful that I'm able to play. I know I'm getting some solid hits and I'm just going to keep that mentality. I know I can swing a bat at this level. I'm going to keep playing aggressively and doing everything I can on defense. I'm going to trust my approach and that things will turn around.
Henry: I know you take a lot of pride in your defense. Talk about focusing on that when you're struggling at the plate.
Massey: Our pitchers are doing a great job and I want to do everything I can to cut down on their pitch counts. I know that every day when I come to the field, I can bring attitude and effort. I can focus on baserunning. I can focus on defense. I can do that every day to help the team.
Henry: When you heard you were coming to Tulsa before the season began, what was your reaction?
Massey: I had heard great things about the stadium and I was excited to see the city. Since I've been here, I've learned a lot about the Texas League. With all of the times you see the other guys and other teams and all of the scouting that goes on, I think it's as close as you get to the Major League level in that respect.
Henry: What's been the biggest thing you've noticed about Double-A pitching?
Massey: Texas League pitchers attack the strike zone and they come after you. They're also not afraid to throw their secondary stuff and attack both sides of the plate.

Chef Wolfgang Puck inside Spago; photography by Carin Krasner
Spago, Reinventedby Lesley Balla | Angeleno magazine | January 3, 2013
The first time I went to Spago was in 2002. I sat on the patio by the big tree that was wrapped with twinkle lights. The service was some of the best I had encountered in L.A., and the wine was incredible, though I can't recall what it was. In fact, I can't recall what I ate. I do remember that the evening felt magical.
After a complete overhaul that seems designed to bring in a younger, hipper crowd—a Doug Aitken work that looks like a giant, glowing iPhone with a cracked screen now lines a wall and the stained-glass accents are gone—I'm happy to say Spago still feels special. The new food, vibe and décor are wild departures from the classic stylings we all knew and loved, but the bones of the room, the expert dedication in the kitchen, and the top-notch service and hospitality are all still intact. Spago has been reinvented, and it's spectacular.
That's easy for me to say. I wasn't a regular at Spago by any stretch. I wasn't attached to the golden hues, the garden and the stained glass. The goulash and schnitzel weren't the first things I'd order,
though I recall going for sweet corn agnolotti whenever I could. I didn't have a favorite anything. So while the address remains the same, I find the transformation to be astounding.
It starts at the big black door when you walk into the foyer. I'm sure it's matte black and closed so your entrance will be that much more dramatic. You can't see inside until you walk in, and that's the point. Puck wants you to be wowed. You probably will be.
Designer Waldo Fernandez has created a sleeker space that definitely feels more of the moment. Some changes I love: The bar is darker and cozier, with small lounge tables for sipping and nibbling; the dining room is more open with a chic, stripped-down, black and white look. A glass partition to the kitchen was added, so now you can see the entire line of cooks bustling at the burners, counters and wood-burning oven. The wine collection is now showcased along one wall, with large booths flanking both sides of the room. Every table is a see-and-be-seen table.
Some elements I'm not crazy about: The lounge space that now separates the dining room and the patio is too well lit. And the patio was completely gutted—trees were uprooted and two white, monolithic fireplaces now flank the space on either side. But it's still lovely (the retractable roof is a nice touch), and the monolithic fireplaces are stark, tall and inviting.
Puck's older clientele who are still clinging to their favorite dishes from 15 or 20 years ago might not be pleased with the new, season-centric kitchen philosophy, which means no more ordering without consulting the ever-evolving menu (though special requests are gladly accommodated). But it's a risk Puck is willing to take to get a younger generation of Spago proselytizers through his doors. And given the quality of his new fare, it will likely pay off.
At the helm is Chef de Cuisine Tetsu Yahagi, a young, Japanese-born chef who worked under the tutelage of Executive Chef Lee Hefter for the last seven years. The refined menu has wonderfully bright Asian touches. It's not just steak tartare; it's silky veal tartare served in two hollowed-out bones, topped with creamy white smoked mascarpone. Thinly sliced, barely cooked octopus "ceviche" dances on a plate with slivers of beets and edible flowers. And the yuzu is tart but not overpowering with a quinoa crisp that adds just the right amount of texture.
I could make a meal out of any of the pastas, especially the rich single raviolo that oozes a golden egg yolk when you cut into it. You'll see a lot of quotation marks in the menu descriptions, indicating a twist: Jidori chicken "pastrami" isn't really pastrami, but rather pastrami-spiced leg meat and gorgeous tender breast served with a piquant mustard sauce.
When it comes to desserts and baked goods, it's as if a cloud has been lifted and pastry chef Sherry Yard's creativity can now shine through. Teff flour and pumpkin seeds add heartiness to the lavash in the bread basket. Next month, Yard—who's been with Puck for almost 20 years—is moving on to breathe new life into the Helms Bakery with Sang Yoon (of Lukshon), and new pastry chef Della Gossett (Charlie Trotter's) will take the helm.
For Puck to take his flagship and do a complete 180 was one of his boldest moves yet, and perhaps one of his smartest. He needed a new path to go the next stretch. Spago's old look, while cutting-edge 15 years ago, had become dated and stale. The menu, while still beloved, was stagnant. This dramatic reimagining is just what the doctor ordered: a new Spago for a new generation.

What to Wear
This is a younger, hipper Spago. But you're still in Beverly Hills; keep it chic.
Where to Sit
Corner tables on the patio and the banquettes in the dining room give you the best vantage points for surveying the scene.
What to Drink
Don't miss the new cocktail menu, especially the Tainted Love (Tanqueray No. 10 Gin, Campari, St-Germain, lemon). The 30,000 bottle wine collection remains the same.
If It's Not on the Menu…
If you're one of Puck's beloved (and usually very famous) regulars, you can still ask if the kitchen will make your favorite dish, though chances are he'll try to steer you to something new.

Xenith - Nova619 - Calendar 2014 - March by ElvenwynWatch
©2013-2016 Elvenwyn
Pencils and Flats byInks by
Colours by myself,
This is the picture done for the Nova619 2014 calendar and this will be in the March slot the whole thing is due for December 2013.
This was interesting to colour in, although I admit the stars in the background were a bit of a pain, I don't want to know how many of them there are. All I know is that there is A LOT of them.
Thanks again for taking part in the calendar project and the superb colors! Have a great vacation in Europe! Daz
nice work!
Reading your description I would say in case you've to do a similar background in the future I would suggest to look for some stars brushes, I don't have any my self but I've saw some cool ones here on DA that could download for free and it would be less pain .
Later I'll submit the pencils and link to your colors.

The validity of the sacrament does depend on the right intention of the minister. But the right intention necessary to administer the sacrament of baptism is not dependent upon a complete or accurate understanding of the effects of baptism. It entails only the will to do what Christ willed and what the Church does.
Many Protestants view baptism as a symbol rather than a life-giving sacrament, but as long as there is the intention to do what Christ willed—and as long as the baptism is done in the name of the Holy Trinity—the baptism will accomplish what Christ intended, however imperfectly that may be understood or believed by the participants.

Approximately 225 miles north of Madison lies the village of Birchwood, Wisconsin. Although the town itself houses a mere 548 people according to city-data.com, the area stays hopping with tourists throughout the year enjoying the area's many recreational activities.
If you're looking for a destination to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life, Birchwood is an idyllic setting no matter what the season. Birchwood is particularly famous for its 14-foot bluegill statue and is known as the "Bluegill Capital of Wisconsin". So it's no surprise that fishing is Birchwood's number one recreational activity. During the hot Wisconsin summer, the surrounding areas' many lakes, (Big Chetac, Birch, Long, Red Cedar and Spider) are teeming with boaters and hundreds of fishermen.
And if fishing isn't your favorite pastime, the area offers plenty of other summertime activities. Camping, golfing, biking, shopping at many of the small family-owned shops on Main Street (you won't find a franchise store in Birchwood), and plenty of water activities like swimming, water-skiing, sailing, canoeing, paddle boating, kayaking or jet-skiing can keep you and your family busy from sunup to sundown.
Then, when the weather gets colder and the lakes freeze up, it may seem as though Birchwood should turn in for the winter. Contrary to popular belief, that is not the case. Despite Wisconsin's chill, the Birchwood area still thrives as the snowmobilers, ice fishermen and cross-country skiers coast into town. The area also offers several restaurants and supper clubs serving up steaks and piping-hot baked potatoes in a warm and friendly environment as well as taverns and bars to keep your party going well into the cold winter night.
The majority of lodging in Birchwood consists of resorts, campgrounds, inns, bed and breakfasts and motels. You won't find a Hilton anywhere, as most of the lodging is privately owned. The Birchwood Area Chamber of Commerce's Web site lists all of the area's lodging and availability.
When you're ready to book your family's next Northwood's vacation, hook up the boat, pack your tent, bring your fishing pole and head to Birchwood, Wisconsin. There, you'll remember the beauty of nature and find a break from the fast lane.

Summer. A time of pure joy for diehard outdoor skaters in the Twin Cities. After being cooped up all winter, there's just no better feeling than the sun on your back, the wind in your ears and the trail flying by beneath you. When the new Vikings Stadium is built and the Rollerdome is back in business, you can make do while the snow flies, but summer skating just can't be beat. Here are a few tips to stay cool while you're out on the trails in the heat and humidity.
Avoid peak sun hours
Peak sun hours are generally between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. That's when the sun shines the hottest and people feel its effects the most, which is why most health experts suggest avoiding extensive sun exposure or strenuous outdoor activity during this time. It's all too easy to get overheated and soak up too much sun (sunburn anyone?), so unless your options are limited, try to skate in the early morning or late afternoon/evening when the sun is not as intense. And don't forget the sunscreen and shades!
Drink, drink, drink
It's easy to forget a water bottle when you're out skating, but during the summer it's all the more important to stay hydrated while exercising. You lose a lot of moisture by sweating and the hot sun will naturally zap your energy, so try to compensate by drinking more than your usual intake of water. Water fortified with vitamins and minerals is an added bonus (check the sugar content - too much sugar isn't good and doesn't help anything), but unless you're planning an extra long trek, plain old water will usually do the trick. If you're not a fan of carrying water with you while skating, be sure to take a gulp before and after your workout. And...
Know your limits
Yes, inline skating often elicits feelings of invincibility, but most skaters are only too human. Try not to set any personal records during periods of high heat and humidity, and learn to recognize warning signs of heat exhaustion. It's just not worth it to push your body beyond its limits when it's already working overtime to cope with summer living in Minnesota.
Choose a shady trail
If nothing else, choose a shady trail! Avoid the sun with these scenic, moderately shady trails:

Parkhurst Prison
Parkhurst Prison
Parkhurst Prison is one of the three prisons that make up HMP Isle of Wight, the other two being Albany and Camp Hill. Parkhurst and Albany were once amongst the few top security prisons in the country but were downgraded in the 1990s.
Notorious inmates at Parkhurst have included the Yorkshire Ripper, Peter Sutcliffe, Moors Murderer Ian Brady and the Kray Twins.
It was built as a military hospital in 1805 and later transformed into a prison for boys awaiting deportation, mainly to Australia.
From 1863 to 1869 it served as a female prison but since this date has been solely a male prison. The three prisons were made part of a cluster prison with one governor in charge in 2009.
Parkhurst houses just under 500 prisoners and the whole site has a capacity of around 1700 men.
