Is the great American food pyramid actually the grains-gone-wrong food pyramid? Denise Minger says yes, and she explains why in her new book: "Death by Food Pyramid: How Shoddy Science, Sketchy Politics and Shady Special Interests Have Ruined Our Health" (click for details).
We talked with Denise in an exclusive interview about her views.
"The pyramid wasn't designed exclusively with human health in mind: it was also shaped by the country's economic state -- a casualty of the USDA's catch-22 duty of protecting agricultural interests while also supporting human health," declares Denise.
And the problem with that: "The most profitable foods tend to be the worst ones for our bodies."
Denise contends that the grain-heavy food pyramid, which recommends six to eleven servings of grains, is an overload of starchy food with no evidence of its merits.
Moreover, the restriction on fat implemented in the pyramid is dangerous to our health, says Denise.
"USDA nutritionists thought distinguishing between different types of fats -- like the monounsaturated fat found in olive oil, the omega-3s in fish, the saturated fat in dairy -- would be too confusing for Americans, so they tried to simplify the message by restricting fat categorically. That robbed us of a lot of incredibly nutritious foods and fat-soluble vitamins."
If you rely only on the current food pyramid, you are left with "the impression that starchy foods -- even heavily processed and refined ones -- are a dietary free-for-all, while fat is inherently harmful. It's taken decades to finally start reversing that mentality and dissolve the fat-phobia instilled by the pyramid."
So what should you eat for weight loss and health? Get over that fat-phobia, says Denise, and embrace the wonders of healthy fats and protein.
Denise recommends a Paleo-style diet, which is low in starchy carbs and high in healthy fats. Her keys to a good diet:
- Fresh produce -- colorful vegetables, dark leafy greens, raw fruit
- Nuts like almonds and walnuts
- A wide intake of meat, particularly "in the form of grass-fed and free-range animal products that have been gently cooked"
- Starch limited to "yams, sweet potatoes, squash, lentils, and other whole-foods sources rather than from grains"
- If you tolerate dairy, try cultured forms like yogurt and kefir
- Nutritious high-fat foods: nuts, avocado, bone marrow, organ meats, fish eggs, oily seafood like salmon, coconut, egg yolks, dairy from animals eating very good diets
And as for those who still blame fat for obesity, Denise disagrees.
"My view at this point is that fat is not inherently harmful or obesity-promoting. Many fatty foods are our best source of hard-to-get vitamins like K2. Quality and source matter profoundly, though. I recommend "whole" sources of fats to their isolated oils, and I believe the refined vegetable oils we see promoted for their low saturated fat content are legitimately harmful," she adds.
Bottom line: Eat a diet of unprocessed food, including fresh fruits and vegetables, fish and meat, eggs, healthy fats and other natural foods. Learn more about "Death by Food Pyramid: How Shoddy Science, Sketchy Politics and Shady Special Interests Have Ruined Our Health" by clicking here.

Football: Weekly Picks
What a difference a year makes; not only is Wake Forest 6-1 both straight-up and ATS, but the Deacons are the 24th-ranked team in the country. How are they doing it? The defense is allowing just 15 points per contest.
Of course, those numbers alone don't justify being a near double-digit road chalk, but they do when considering this week's opponent. This North Carolina program has sunk lower than Britney Spears' IQ. We're talking a 1-6 record, with the one victory being a three-point nail-biter against I-AA Furman. That's right; the Tar Heels have lost badly to all the I-A teams they've faced, and they've fallen by an average of 22.4 points a game. Even worse, they're in the throes of a 0-9 ATS skid dating back to last season.
Last Thursday the Heels played a 2-5 Virginia team and got shutout 23-0, a beat-down that earned coach John Bunting a long-anticipated pink slip. Although Bunting will be allowed to finish the season, don't look for any "win one for the Gipper" games this week; especially not against this Wake Forest team, which needs just one more victory to ensure a winning season.
The road team is 12-2-1 ATS in this rivalry, and the Demon Deacons will improve on that mark as they smoke the Tar Heels down on Tobacco Road.
Prediction: Wake Forest
East Carolina +5.5 at Southern MississippiLet's try to find the logic in this line, shall we? Southern Mississippi is coming off a 30-point loss to Virginia Tech, a game in which the Golden Eagles were outrushed 284 yards to 82 yards and failed to reach the end zone. Southern Miss is also 2-9 ATS in its last nine games.
East Carolina is coming off its most lopsided victory of the year, a 38-21 rout of Southern Methodist University in a game where quarterback James Pinkney had a career day (31 of 40, 391 yards, 2 TDs, and no picks). East Carolina is 8-1 ATS in its last nine games overall, 6-1 ATS this year and 7-1 ATS in its last eight road contests.
Now, you tell me, how is Southern Miss almost a touchdown favorite? Who's setting lines in Vegas these days?
The Golden Eagles are simply getting too much respect in this game, especially considering that their top running back is banged up and may not play. Then there's the little-known fact that since Skip Holtz took over the East Carolina program, the Pirates are an amazing 14-4 against the number, including 7-1 ATS in their last eight as an underdog.
While Southern Miss has dominated East Carolina in recent years, winning nine of the last 10 meetings, I actually think that works to our advantage here, because these teams are much closer to each other in terms of overall talent than they've been in ages, so this is a perfect spot for the Pirates to get some revenge.
Grab the generous points with East Carolina, then go out and buy a thank-you card and mail it to the oddsmakers in Vegas for the early Christmas gift.
Prediction: East Carolina

Nothing was ever as fun as prom night. The anticipation, the dress, the shoes, and of course the makeup. With hints of grey, this pale purple shade is flattering for every eye color, every skin tone, and the shimmery finish makes it perfect for any occasion. The rich pigmentation and velvet-like texture makes this an ideal shade regardless of where you are going. Pair it up with other neutral shades for a great day look or add deeper shadows for a great smokey eye for that special night.
The Bottom Line:
A pale purple with hints of grey and a shimmery finish.

Love it! Review by Valerie
This is my go-to, absolute favorite shade! I have blue eyes with brown specks, so the shimmer plays beautifully with my contrasting eye color. Can be dressed up or down for a day or night look. Love, love, love it! (Posted on 6/7/16)
Yup Yup! Review by shannon
Dammmn MUG Back at it Again! Im not sure what anyone is talking about as far as color pay off listen if the shadow is creme and buttery and has a sheen usually finger application works best and it also might be the brush your using as well because ugh im not complaining veryyyy nice sheenish metallic thing going on very flattering for all ranges of skin (Posted on 5/18/16)
Good Basic Taupe Review by Meghan
I recommend everyone have a taupe in their collection and this one is great. It is a little more stiff than other shadows from MUG btw (Posted on 12/15/15)
Excellent, beautiful Shadow Review by Meka
I bought 7 day wear shadows and this one is probably the best, it was beautiful, glamorous and very buttery/pigmented. I wear this as a wash with eyeliner and plenty of people told me it was a beautiful color.
This eye shadow looks good on me and my sister. I am fair so it does look a little "heavier" on me but it looks effortless on my sister who is a medium tone.
Primer is needed because it does crease but it doesn't require a base or anything to have great color pay off. Some touch up after 5-6 hrs to regain the intensity.
Would buy this shadow and recommended it! (Posted on 11/30/15)
Cool tone Review by Britt
Pretty shade, but I've found that for my Caucasian, yellow undertone skin, cool tones aren't the most flattering/wearable shades. This is a taupe-y/purple-ish. Light shade for all over lid. Comparable to homecoming in sheen and texture, just in a different color. (Posted on 10/20/15)
This is exactly what I wanted! Review by Joanne
This soft purple taupe color has just the right amount of shimmer to it. In my first order I chose Moonstone and it was not one of my favorites. On the other hand, I love Prom Night for my brown eyes! :) (Posted on 10/14/15)
good Review by tatiana
its a beautiful shade, not my fave, but its ok. (Posted on 8/17/15)
prom queen Review by Inga
this is one of the first shadows that I got from MUG. the color is exactly like in the picture, it's smooth and just wonderful! I use it a lot for my lower lash line (just to add a little bit sultry taste to the look). this or Twilight. (Posted on 8/8/15)
Love it! Review by Kirstin
Use this almost daily. So smooth, blendable and last for hours. It's a Taupe/purple but not a true purple. Goes with basically any colour. (Posted on 6/16/15)
Love Review by Louise
This is so amazing, I like to add MAC FIX +. (Posted on 6/10/15)
Pretty Review by Julia
Pretty shimmery pale purple (Posted on 4/30/15)
favorite Review by BRITTANY
blendable, buttery, pigmented, metallic, purple-taupe?, one of my favorite MUG shadows. if contemplating, buy this one over moonstone. similar but like this much better. more wearable (Posted on 3/29/15)
Simply Gorgeous! Review by CHLOE
Love, love Prom Night! A taupe-y / medium purple.
For a quick makeup, put it all over the upper lid but not in the crease, it has very nice depth! Pair it with dark purple Drama Queen, and you have a gorgeous combo! (Posted on 3/16/15)
More taupe than purple-faint purple Review by Christine
Faint purple undertones...don't expect a true purple eyeshadow, which Is what I love about it! I will never buy MAC, urban decay, Nars, or even Makeup For Ever artist shadows again because these are by FAR the best eyeshadows in the industry. Buttery, easy to blend, stunning in color, lasts forever on the eye, doesn't crease, and highly pigmented. They are also $6!!! I have absolutely no complaints. I have bought 35 of these eyeshadows in various shades and every single one is perfection! (Posted on 3/2/15)
A great color for WOC Review by Tracee
Received my package just yesterday and i have to say this color is just beautiful for WOC (I wear MAC NC50 or NW45). It's a great Neutral in a taupe/purple. I paired it with Cocoa Bear to wear as a nice daytime/work added a Dark brown in the V and used a white eyeshadow base. This shadow is so creamy soft, no fallout and goes on very, very nice! Love this taupe/purple neutral shade (Posted on 2/21/15)
another let down Review by melissa
Yet another color let down. Swatches beautifully but hardly any shimmer at all on the lid (Posted on 1/28/15)
A Must Have Unique Purple-Taupe Review by Shannen
I've been on the hunt for a unique looking purple-taupe, and this one won my heart over. It looks super unique and can look different under different lights. You can play around with the base underneath it and create a different look. It's my absolute favorite eyeshadow of ALL time. Absolutely gorgeous, I recommend this shade if you love that shimmery purple-taupe shade!!! (Posted on 12/8/14)
Very unique Review by anna
Great quality, smooth and pigmented. The colour is like a mix between taupe, dusty purple and silver. Very beautiful. It's not as violet as in the pan picture. (Posted on 9/3/14)
Pretty purple taupe Review by Rebecca
This is a staple shade for me because I love purple taupes as opposed to brown or gray taupes. It's buttery smooth and gorgeous if you use a glitter primer. That makes it ultra metallic. (Posted on 8/23/14)
WOW! Review by Cherilyn
To be truthfully honest I did not expect this shade to be so beautiful. I have blue eyes and they pop so much when using this shade. I used this. I got so many compliments when using this Prom Night. Definitely a must have! (Posted on 7/9/14)
Such a unique color Review by Erica
I can't imagine this not looking great on everyone. When I swatched it with different colored bases ...it paired so wellwith all of them... I used pinks and purples ....it's a cool way to always reinvent this color! (Posted on 6/16/14)
Compliments blue eyes so well Review by Megan
This gorgeous shade is a must have. I have blue eyes and very pale skin and this color suits me perfectly! I honestly think it would look perfect on anyone with any eye or skin color though. Truly beautiful shade! (Posted on 6/11/14)
I wish I had Makeup Geek back on my prom night! Ha Review by Tammy
I just received my first order from Makeup Geek which included this shade. I don't even know why I'm surprised but this color is my favorite of them all! ((I ordered mostly neutral matte shades with a few pops if color & shimmer finishes as well.)) It's gorgeous in the photos here but it's simply stunning in person. I think this color is a must have for anyone! I used Cinderella & Cupcake to pair with this as crease & highlight colors & compliments were pouring my way! I am so happy with the quality of my order- the staff even added a thank you note for a nice touch of class!! I will definitely be ordering again!! (Posted on 4/17/14)
A lovely, out of the ordinary shade Review by rodcin
This is an out-of-the-ordinary color! On my NC30 skin, it looks as much purple as it does gray. The predominant hue changes in different kinds of light, which makes it interesting, but it's subdued enough to make it appropriate for conservative work environments. It looks great with my brown eyes, and I bet it would be a knock-out complement to blue eyes. I apply it (over primer) at 7 am and is still going strong at 7 pm. It looks gorgeous with Drama Queen and Unexpected (all which I got with the starter kit.) (Posted on 3/15/14)
Love it Review by Nathalie
A beautiful colour, great pigmentation, I love it ! (Posted on 3/6/14)
So excited! Review by Orlena
I just got all my shadows and I have to say I am impressed! Great job Marlena! I can see I need to get another job to keep up on my new MUG addiction. This colour is just gorgeous, smooth, buttery and perfect!!! (Posted on 2/22/14)
Loving it.. Review by Christine
This is such a great transition color! I recommend this one to any MUA. Thanks, MUG!!! (Posted on 2/9/14)
Love it, not as purple as I thought Review by Aysha
I love this shadow great formula, never used a better shadow colour was a bit less purple then I thought more taupe then purple. Still love it!!! (Posted on 1/2/14)
Gorgeous! Review by Amber
This is such a gorgeous colour. It's shimmery but not too shimmery and while it looks like it's a little silver in the pics it's definitely not too silver. I use this as an all over colour but you could create some really nice smokey eye looks with this. I also have MAC satin taupe but in my opinion, this colour is nicer and a fraction of the price! (Posted on 10/30/13)
Beautiful Review by Veronica
I have mac satin taupe and i love it. I also have so called dupes for it, but in my opinion, no one matches. Prom night is the closest dupe I have ever seen, maybe a little more puple in it then satin taupe. They are like sisters and I'm so glad I have both :) I have blue/grey eyes and prom night makes them pop. I will defiantly buy a second one!! And as Valasia says, it's so much more then a pale purple. Beautiful!!! (Posted on 10/24/13)
No what I Expected Review by Ana
I don't know if its me and am putting it on wrong but I did not like this color at all... its said to have some shimmer but when i placed it over my lid came out flat and dull...and more brownish then greyish. I would no recommend this shadow out. (Posted on 10/22/12)
Very interesting colour Review by Valasia
This is one of the most interesting eye shadow colours I have come across the last few years. And I say that because for the following reason:
When you look it in the pan, you see a very lovely, neutral, pale purple colour. However, when you apply this on the lid, what you get is an almost duochrome eye shadow (at least this is what it looks like on my lids), that is the pale purple I described above, but at the same time, if you look at it from a different angle, you will see an almost metallic (but not overwhelming) pale sliver-blue hue.
Very pretty and flattering, and it makes my eyes look more bright!
Keep up the good work MUGs! (Posted on 10/15/12)
LOVE IT!!! Review by pinkstar
I love, love, love this one!!! very nice...light purple grayish color. It is beautiful when you put it on your lids! I put it is the same category as moondust and homecoming. All three of these are my favorite and my go to colors!!! Good job Mug!!! (Posted on 9/28/12)

This past Tuesday I had the opportunity to take in the splendor of Disney's Beauty And The Best with my five-year-old daughter. Here is our takeaway and the top 10 reasons to catch this performance happening now through December 2 at The Fabulous Fox Theatre.
1. Because you know all the words to Belle by heart.
2. Hassan Nazari-Robati brings the perfect amount of flare in his role as Lumiere.
3. It's a great excuse to get gussied up or don a princess gown (not that you need one.)
4. The Fox Theatre is the perfect venue to see Belle and the Beast waltz.
5. You don't have to go to New York City or Orlando to see a Broadway musical.
6. The performance of Be Our Guest is not-to-be-missed.
7. No one like Gaston has a swell cleft in his chin.
8. The 580-piece costumes are as enchanting as the tale.

Police look for robbers after man injured in NSB home invasion
Published: Wednesday, November 21, 2012 at 12:42 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, November 21, 2012 at 12:42 p.m.
A self-employed stockbroker from Longwood reported Wednesday two men broke into his New Smyrna Beach residence, hit him over the head with a crowbar and stole cash, a cellphone and other items, police said.
Officers met with George P. Hasapes, 52, in the emergency room at Bert Fish Medical Center about 5 a.m., the incident report said.
Hasapes told the officers the men, one of whom he knows and the other, a stranger, forced their way into the 206 S. Pine St. home, on the beachside two blocks from Flagler Avenue, at about 3 a.m. and attacked him.
The report said after the men left the residence, Hasapes went to a friend's house on Goodwin Street and was driven to the hospital.
Police requested the identities of the assailants not be released pending their capture and arrest.

Thadius is the visionary and CEO of Redemption Recordz. Once again while in a North Las Vegas parking lot I hear "I'm a Christian artist.". This time it was different. The young man Thadius was approaching was also a Christian artist.
There are no accidents. A constant prayer is to be in the right place at the right time to bless others. I interrupted the conversation to see if I could get a sample of their music and bless these young men. I was not able to speak to Thadius much; however, he gave me what I believed to be a CD.
I made several attempts at playing his CD. It would not work in my car. I took it out and went to the next artist. I sent a text stating the CD would not play. That is when I found out it was a DVD.
I popped Thadius DVD in the DVD player and waited. What I saw was most impressive. What showed on my TV was a professional video that belonged on television. Keep your eyes and ears open for Thadius Butler. He is definitely an up and coming artist.
Based on his conversation Thadius has a business mind. His website says he founded Redemptionz Records in Orange County California. Thadius says the Lord compelled him to bring the Gospel to Las Vegas. His vision is to create a platform of global Christian artist. The scripture on his website is Ezekiel 3:18.
"When I say to the wicked, 'You will surely die,' and you do not warn him or speak out to warn the wicked from his wicked way that he may live, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood I will require at your hand.." NASB
Thadius is about getting the WORD out.
Take a moment and enjoy the video. Thanks for reading . May the Lord richly bless you and yours.

What was going on in the delivery room?
Dr. Coven: We simulated a situation where we've encountered a shoulder dystocia, which is one of the more feared complications of childbirth. The idea was to practice a complication that we encounter, but to practice it to where the situation requires more maneuvers than most of us have ever done before. So while I may have done the first maneuver many, many, many times I've never had to go to the second or the third maneuver. The idea is to get everyone mentally prepared to do that if they ever have to, but also to develop the teamwork that's necessary to have a successful outcome.
How was the teamwork?
Dr. Coven: In this situation, it worked perfectly because everybody had a chance to think about it in advance and it was scripted.
It was scripted but what was the feeling like? Did you still have the adrenaline rush that you would have in a real scenario?
Dr. Coven: No, not even close.
How is this helpful for you?
Dr. Coven: You do not want to get into a situation that you've never been in and not had a chance to think about it and prepare for it. It's one thing to sit at your desk and think 'what would I do if that would ever happen?' But it's another thing to be there and actually go through the maneuvers several times, see how the team with you reacts and prepare together for a situation that's not very common.
Is the main bottomline of the outcome patient safety ?
Dr. Coven: That's what this is all driven by. There's been an incredible initiative in the last several years in medicine towards patient safety and this is just one component.
How often is it that you're able to practice together?
Dr. Coven: This is new for us. We did do simulations about two years ago for a brief time. Now we've purchased Noel and we're developing a more formal program. The first sessions are just coming up next month. In fact we're having our first team meeting tomorrow to prepare for this.
Is robotic simulations something you could see in the world of medicine's future?
Dr. Coven: Definitely. It's something that's gaining traction.
Is this also a way to refresh?
Dr. Coven: It is. It's also a way to practice scenarios that just don't occur very often. Still, we obviously need to be prepared for them.

Feds: Make Raj's Health Details Public
So, what's the big mystery?
Federal prosecutors in Manhattan asked a judge on Thursday to make public the medical conditions suffered by hedge-fund titan Raj Rajaratnam, whose lawyers have argued he should receive a more lenient sentence because of his health.
The filing came two weeks before Rajaratnam is scheduled to be sentenced after he was convicted in May of 14 counts of conspiracy and insider trading. Prosecutors, who claim he made illicit profits or avoided losses of at least $64 million, are seeking a prison term of as much as 24 1/2 years. Read recent coverage here, here, and here.
"These disputes are public because when a defendant places his health at issue and seeks leniency based on it, he waives his right to medical privacy," prosecutors said in court papers.
Prosecutors have asked that the judge make public details about the general nature of his health conditions, his long-term prognosis and the ability of the U.S. Bureau of Prisons to treat those conditions.
They noted the Bureau of Prisons "can provide more than adequate medical care" for him and "Rajaratnam committed most of the charged crimes after he knew about these medical conditions."
A spokeswoman for the law firm representing Mr. Rajaratnam said his lawyers will reply to the court in written brief in a few days.
It's not the first time his health has been an issue in the case.
During jury deliberations in May, Rajaratnam, 54 years old, missed several days of court after he underwent emergency foot surgery as a result of a bacterial infection. On the first day he was missing, his lawyers initially declined to say why he wasn't in court, but later issued a statement saying he had undergone surgery.
When he returned to court, he wore a protective blue boot on his right foot.

Muslim Woman Strangled by Burkha In Freak Go Cart Accident
In very sad and horrific news today, a Muslm woman has been strangled by her "burkha" in a freak go cart accident.
As you know, Muslim men are very domineering and disrespectful. They force their women to do bizarre things like wear these terror-ninja looking outfits, which they call burkhas in their tribal tongue.
I cannot believe that this day and age, we still have people so backwards as to make a women wear such ridiculous outfits. Truly sick.
The backstory here is that a young Muslim woman died after her terror burkha was snagged in a go-cart. The 24-year-old woman, who has yet to be named, was driving her go-cart just outside Sydney, Australia, when this happened.
Reports indicate that her burkha flew backward as she drove around the track and a flowing part of it caught in the go-carts wheels. Very sad and my heart goes out to this young woman and her family.
Efforts to revive the young woman failed and she passed at a New Castle hospital. Thoughts and prayers for this young woman and her family during this time.

The numbers will still keeping coming for Finch and Reese, as CBS renews Person of Interest for a fourth season.
Created by Jonathan Nolan, POI stars Jim Caviezel as brooding ex-CIA agent John Reese and Michael Emerson as eccentric billionaire Harold Finch.
After succeeding USA's Burn Notice in the Thursday 9pm slot for its first two seasons, POI is now succeeding TNT's Leverage every Tuesday night at 10pm in its third season as a combination and mixture of The A-Team, The Equalizer, Minority Report, and the Batman pathos. As New York's very own "Dynamic Duo", Reese and Finch continues to keep the streets safe thanks to Finch's creation known as "the Machine": stopping crime before they happen.
Also renewed by CBS for next season are top-rated NCIS and NCIS: Los Angeles, CSI, Criminal Minds, The Good Wife, Two and a Half Men, 2 Broke Girls, Mike & Molly, Hawaii Five-O, Blue Bloods, and freshman hits Mom and The Millers.
However, The Crazy Ones, Intelligence, and The Mentalist are "on the bubble" for the moment -- unlike The Big Bang Theory, whose growing popularity gave the sitcom a three-year renewal.

Acclimatization to hypoxic exposure relies on an elevated ventilation and erythropoietic activity. We recently proposed that erythropoietin (Epo) links both responses: apart from red blood cell production, cerebral and plasma Epo interact with the central and peripheral respiratory centers. Knowing that women cope better than men with reduced oxygen supply (as observed at high altitude), we analyzed the hypoxic ventilatory response in Epo-overexpressing transgenic male and female mice with high Epo levels in brain and plasma (Tg6) or in wild type animals injected with recombinant human Epo (rhEpo). Exposure to moderate and severe hypoxia as well as to hyperoxia and injection of domperidone, a potent peripheral ventilatory stimulant, revealed that the presence of transgenic or rhEpo extensively increased the hypoxic ventilatory response in female mice compared to their corresponding male siblings. Alterations of catecholamines in the brainstem's respiratory centers were also sex-dependent. In a proof-of-concept study, human volunteers were i.v. injected 5000 U rhEpo and subsequently exposed to 10% oxygen. Compared to men, the hypoxic ventilatory response was significantly increased in women. We conclude that Epo exerts a sex-dependent impact on hypoxic ventilation improving the response in female mice and in women that most probably involves sexual hormones. Our data provides an explanation as to why women are less susceptibility to hypoxia-associated syndromes than men. Key words: carotid body, brainstem, sexual dimorphism.

Plexus Slim
Drink your way thin with this powdered mix.Top Rated Diet Pills of 2016
- Established: 2005
- Founder: David Brown
- Headquarters: Scottsdale, Arizona
- Accessibility: Online or through a representative
- Diet Type: Diet supplement drink mix
- Gender: Male and female
EDITOR'S TIP: Combine this supplement with a proven fat burner as Sletrokor for better results
Plexus Slim is a powdered dietary supplement that is mixed with water to help you burn calories and fat while on the go. It contains no caffeine or stimulants and is meant to be used in conjunction with a regular diet plan.
Plexus Slim also claims to help you obtain healthy blood sugar, cholesterol and lipid levels and is considered safe for those with diabetes.
To take this supplement you simply pour it into a bottle of water 30 minutes before a meal and drink.
The products' two plant extract concentrates - chloregenic acid and oxypregnane steroid glycoside - work to provide effective "slimming and beauty benefits" thanks to antioxidants that are reportedly twice as potent as those found in dark chocolate.
Studies have also shown the caffein acid in chlorogenic acid contains high antioxidant levels that help limit the oxidation of lipids in the liver. And the oxypregnane steroidal glycoside helps with appetite control because it sends signals to the brain to tell the body it's full.
Plexus Slim claims the effectiveness of its product has been clinically proven. A 30-day supply of costs $84.95, but preferred customers - those who agree to receive a monthly recurring auto-shipment - pay $79.95.
Ingredients include: Chloregenic acid (plant extract), citrin K, alpha lipoid acid, oxypregnane steroidal, polydestrose, citric acid, natural flavors, beet root and grape skin extract, stevia extract and lo han extract.
Makers of Plexus Slim say users can expect to see results in as little as two weeks.PRO
- Contains no stimulants
- Claims to be safe for diabetics
- Contains natural ingredients
- Can be conveniently mixed with water
- May help to jump-start a weight loss plan
- Can be a bit expensive compared to similar products
- Must buy a 30-day supply to get free sample
- Diet and exercise are mentioned, but not heavily incorporated with Plexus Slim
- Not a long-term solution to weight loss
- Weight loss claims are likely exaggerated
- Natural does not always mean safe
- Chlorogenic acids
- Oxypregnane steroidal glycoside
- Low Glycemic Index Fructose
- Soy Lecithin
- Beet Root
- Stevia
- Lo Han Fruit
- Grape Skin
- Carmine
- Rosmarinic Acid
- Hydroxcycinnamic Acid
Pour into a 12-ounce glass or bottle of water and drink 30 minutes before a meal. Plexus Slim should be consumed only one time throughout the day.DIET and EXERCISE
Changing your eating habits is recommended for optimal results with Plexus Slim. The product contains natural appetite suppressants, and basically you are told to listen to your body. Ordering smaller meals at restaurants and eating smaller portions is the extent of the dieting advice.
For exercise, you don't have to incorporate any exercise to see results. It is mentioned that if you incorporate 20-30 minutes of exercise each day, your results will be seen a lot faster.CONCLUSION
Losing weight can mean different things to different people. Some people desire to lose five or ten pounds while others have much larger amounts to lose. Using Plexus Slim might be a great added boost to help you reach your goals. While it gets bonus points for its convenient powdered mix which can be easily added to any bottle of water for a quick appetite suppressant and its natural ingredients, Plexus Slim is not a long-term solution weight and its all-natural ingredients may not equate to being safe for your health.
Talk to your doctor before using this product, particularly if you have diabetes.Common Misspellings
plexis slim, plixis slim, plexas slim, plexusslim, plecksus slim, plexuss slim, plexxus slim

the only thing you will be doing is feeding someone elses pocketbook for life buying a product completely unnessary. Get off your big tail and exercise and eat right. don't worry about buying the product for the rest of your life, because most MLM last onlly 3-5 years.
Still getting feedback from people at plexusslim. it ssems like people are starting to wise up and see this as the scam it really is. one person stated she is losing customers left and right. the public can only be fooled some of the time, not all of the time. remember the Acai berry! I will remind people again, go to yahoo and put in " The Ten Big Lies of MLM". Then. if you can get up in the morning and look yourself in the mirror, something is very wrong.
HORRIBLE!!!! Do not take this Threw up and dirreaha all day felt like I was going to die, ended up at the hospital.
Works great--I still eat the same foods, I just don't want as much of them. Am a believer for life (which is funny because I am a huge skeptic in general)
Plexus Slim is still working for me. I got off of it for the Holidays but just started it back up and it makes me so I'm not hungry. I'll take it until Christmas and then get off of it and just enjoy the food. I have lost 22 lbs so far and I plan to lose another 35 lbs over the next 4 to 6 months. I've started to drink the pink drink 2 times a day if I sray up late at night just so I don't munch out at night. It's about the only diet product that has ever worked for me other then the pills the doctor put me on 15 years ago. Those just made me nervious. I find that Plexus just gives me a little more will power not to eat and extra energy. I was told that they are coming out with a half dose of the plexus accelerator sometime soon. You all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
Could someone provide the report of the results on the claim: the breast check kit helps to magnify lumps. The breast cream is great for lots of things from keeping down fibro lumps to acne and athletics foot. Define "lots of things." And no negative person. You make claims that Plexus Claim is great for acne and athletics foot, provide proof as outlined in FDA guidelines.
nice comment. the point is do you want to spend the ridiculous price for plexusslim when there is no creditable CLINICAL data that proves that it works at all. maybe it does, maybe it does'nt. you made a great point, good nutrition and exercise, whose to say this the reason you have been successful in your weight lose. either way congratulations.
I really like the the Plexus. Everyone wants a quick fix but do not want to exercise nor eat nutritional food. Plexus is a great product and has helped me since I started taking it. I think it's important that people combine exercise and a healthy diet and not just rely on a quick fix to lose the weight.
finally someone intelligent enough to do research. you are right about the FTC guidelines on testimonials. this may not take place for a while, but they are coming. top ten of all complaints come from MLM. i am a biologist and pharmacologist, and if you took these claims to the FDA or a doctor, you better hope there is no window close by because they will throw you out it. that is after they quit laughing. people to get together and expose this to the attorney general's offices before somebody gets hurt. it is scary when uneducated make these ridiculous claims. we need to stand up and fight this for the sake of our families and friends.
Pete, thanks for the website on the unbiased, no-hyped study. The tactics used to sell this product are disturbing.
Do a youtube search on Plexus Slim. The claims are incredible. The breast cream cures shingles, scars, warts, poison ivy, diaper rashes and corrects eye visions. FTC guidelines for Endorsements and Testimonies state: "If a distributor makes a claim about a personal experience or other expected performance experience from the product or service, in any type of media, including social networking media, the distributor is now obliged to disclose his or her connection with the company and to also disclose information that fairly represents the expected performance results for the typical consumer."
May i refer all on this site to an article written by Joe Cannon titled, "Plexus Slim review of ingredients and side effects." Search on yahoo.. pretty amazing how people can fall the things the ambassdors are telling you.
people in MLM are programed to tell people that don't agree with that they are negative. i am not negative, i am a free thinker, and MLM people feel threatened by free thinkers.
if this company keeps making the claims they are making, trust me HONESTY, the trial lawers are right behind. the big threats are going to be from the FTC ane Attorney Generals from each state. if if works, give me some clinical data as to why. there is none to mention. ask for them, you will get the roundaround. and, don't give me the testimonial crap. they are nothing without data.
please tell your friends Not to believe anything these people from Plexusslim tell you. they are not qualified for anything. i was told their Breast Cream would help my Rocheasha.. try not to laugh to hard on this one! who in their right mind would tell a pregnant women it was ok to take anything without checking with their. doctor. i have attended meetings just for the interesting fact to find what sort of ridiculous claims they would make next. actually amusing. the FTC and FDA will catch wind of this soon, but like most all MLM companies owners will take their millions and be long gone. good luck to everyone who falls for this con. i just hope no one becomes injured or even dies. please educate yourselves.
It is obvious what acelerator is, some sort of stimulent. GERANAX listed on the package is not really mentioned. this ia a deseption. they focus on caffiene and everyone says no big deal. but, when look at geranax which really has no scientific meaning something becomes obvious also. geranax is same as 1,3 dimythlpantylamine, or DMAA. chemically not an aphretamine, but real close.. it has killed people in the past from stroks, etc. it is now the new party drug in new zealand may be completely banned soon. a healthy nor unhealty person should not take this drug. Plexusslim is just another MLM company conning people and possibily. hurting or killing them for the all mighty dollar.
I love the products. I take the Plexus Slim and the Accelerator and have lost 70 lbs since March 15. I love the way it makes me feel. My 10 yr old son takes the Slim, I got this okayed from Pediatric Neuroligist. He has lost 25 lbs and two pants sizes. I went from a size 24 down to a size 16. Check out Plexus and order some, my Ambassador number is 91695.
I pay for my Plexus by buying less groceries and not going to the fast food places. I just want a different type of food now. It is also really good for diabetics.
I like the breast cancer products. The breast check kit helps to magnify lumps. The breast cream is great for lots of things from keeping down fibro lumps to acne and atheletics foot.
Be sure to check out the Plexus Slim website and use my Ambassador Numer 91695.
It's also a great way to make some extra money. The company pays great!!
If you have any questions, email me at:
I have only been drinking the "pink drink" for a couple of weeks, so I don't feel confident in saying whether it works or not; however, I have great confidence in sending out this alert to anyone considering the BioCleanse product available throug Plexus: While their website fills you in on all of the "benefits" of the BioCleanse, it fails to list the side effects of detoxification. If you google side effects of detoxifcation, you will find dozens of sites that offer products and are responsible enough to alert their customers ahead of time of these potential problems. Unfortunately, Plexus neglects to inform its customers of such side effects, which nearly resulted in a trip to the ER for me. I will briefly sum up my symptoms....headache, dizzy spells, nausea, lightheadedness, abdominal and chest pains, fatigue, blurred vision and chills. DO RESEARCH before taking Biocleanse, and it probably wouldn't be a bad idea to consult with your doctor.
I am having great results with this product! I have lost 8.6 pounds in two weeks. I did feel a little tingly for about thirty minutes after taking the pill the first day but nothing since then. I feel great! I don't feel nearly as hungry and have WAY more willpower. I didn't eat one piece of Halloween candy. :) Give it a try!
I should known not to fall for this, but wanted to give it a chance. Been drinking the pink stuff for 21 days. I am now a pant size larger. Plexus is just another product that will go by the wayside. My own fault for falling for this. I went to a trade show last week. Plexus slim booth was on display. The three "ambassadors" were all at least 200 pounds. So much for testimony. No this stuff did work for me.
Today was the first day I tried it. I did as it said, took the pill and drank the drink 30 min before eating. About 20 mins later I felt horrible. I knew my blood sugar was low. After 2 glasses of OJ I felt better, but I have to eat and drink very often to keep me feeling somewhat ok. People have said to have alot of energy, for me I'm exausted. Im glad I only bout a 3 day pack bc I won't be finishing this. ***NOTE*** I have hypogylcemia but only when I do not eat. I do not have a blood glucose machine to test my sugar but I know how it feels and my sugar has been low all day even with eating. So watch if you are prone to low blood sugar.
I have always been on the thin side all of my life and never had to really diet. Menopause has been very cruel to me. Weight gain has been extremely fast. I tried dieting and exercising, but still gained. Tried Plexus Slim for two months hoping for help. Did not lose any weight at all, in fact gain a little more, still exercising. It did give me more energy and made me use the bathroom a lot more to get rid of fluid, but that's it. But not giving up, will continue different exercise program.

To help meet the needs of higher achievers, Brewster schools have added some new programs.
The Aleks program is a Web-based, artificially intelligent assessment and learning system. ALEKS uses adaptive questioning to quickly and accurately determine exactly what a student knows and doesn't know in a course. ALEKS then instructs the student on the topics she is most ready to learn. As a student works through a course, ALEKS periodically reassesses the student to ensure that topics learned are also retained. ALEKS courses are very complete in their topic coverage and ALEKS avoids multiple-choice questions. A student who shows a high level of mastery of an ALEKS course will be successful in the actual course she is taking.
The Imagine Learning program boasts strategic language support, measurable gains, academic language, research-based literacy and tutoring technology.
Brewster School District Superintendent, Eric Driessen says that the Imagine Learning Program has been nationally recognized earning the 2011-2012 Imagine Nation Top 50 Schools Award.
Superintendent Driessen went on to praise BrewsterSchools and Staff on their recent awards.
Congratulations to Todd Dezellem on Instructor of the Year."CLICK HERE" for Audio

More than one in six Floridians are living poverty — the highest it has been in more than a decade, according to Census figures released this week.
Sixteen percent of Floridians were below the poverty level in 2010, up from 14.6 percent in 2009 reflecting a continuation of a steady climb in recent years. Florida's 2010 rate is the highest it has been since 1995 when it was 16.2 percent.
Florida's poverty rate was slightly above the nation's official poverty rate of 15.1 percent, up from 14.3 percent in 2009 and the third consecutive annual increase, according to the Census bureau. That rate was the highest since 1993 but was 7.3 percentage points lower than the poverty rate in 1959, the first year for which poverty estimates are available, according to the Census bureau.
The poverty information was based on a survey of about 100,000 households and is used to set the national poverty rate. Later in September the census bureau will release more detailed poverty information through the American Community Survey based on a survey of about three million households. That information will include poverty rates for large cities including Miami and Fort Lauderdale.
The census data reflects the first full calendar year after the December 2007-June 2009 recession.
"Given the state of the economy the last couple of years, you would expect the poverty rate to increase nationwide and in Florida," Stefan Rayer, a research demographer at the Bureau of Economic and Business Research at the University of Florida, said in an email. "While the 2010 poverty rate in Florida is higher than during the last decade, there were several years since 1980 when the rate was higher still (16.2 in 1995, 17.8 in 1993, 16.6 in 1981, and 16.7 in 1980). ... When the national poverty rate is high, Florida's poverty rate is often somewhat higher but lower than that of other states in the South."

Police searching for missing student Megan Roberts have found a body in the River Ouse.
The 20-year-old has not been seen for since disappearing following a night out with friends in York in the early hours of January 23.
This afternoon, police were called after a walker found a body in the river near Acaster Malbis, a village around five miles south of the city, the Yorkshire Press reports.
Police said formal identification has yet to take place, but the family of Megan Roberts, from Wetherby, West Yorkshire, has been informed of the discovery.
North Yorkshire Police launched a large-scale missing persons investigation after the York St John University student disappeared.
After examining CCTV footage, officers said they believe the most likely explanation is that Megan got separated from her group while under the influence of alcohol and fell in the River Ouse near to York's Lendal Bridge.
Megan's mum Jackie Roberts released a statement last month describing the case as "a tragic run of events with no one to blame."
She said: "Thank you for all your support and kind thoughts.
"The police have been amazing, they are doing all they can to find her. We've been given as much information as the police can give us and all evidence does point towards this being a tragic run of events with no one to blame.
"Until we know for certain, we all have hope, but whatever the outcome, we are all carrying Megan in our hearts.
"This is a very difficult time and, as a family we will always be thankful for everyone's love and support and caring thoughts for my beautiful daughter."
Divers from the regional police underwater search unit scoured the River Ouse last month.

Tiger Woods continues to make news in the golf world despite not having played a competitive round in over two months. On Wednesday, it was announced on Woods' website that he and longtime caddy Steve Williams, who had seen Woods through 12 years of competition that included 63 of Woods' 71 career PGA Tour victories, among them 13 of his 14 major championships.
Said the press release on Woods' website,
Tiger Woods announced Wednesday that he and caddie Steve Williams will not be working together in the future.
"I want to express my deepest gratitude to Stevie for all his help, but I think it's time for a change," Woods said. "Stevie is an outstanding caddie and a friend and has been instrumental in many of my accomplishments. I wish him great success in the future."
Presently, a replacement has not been named.
Woods continues to rest and rehabilitate his left leg. No decision has been made when he will return to competition on the PGA Tour.
In the last two days, the circumstances surrounding the breakup seem to have been fleshed out to a surprising extent. Williams has gone on-record in interviews claiming that his recent caddying stints for Adam Scott, during Woods' injury-based inactivity, constituted disloyalty on Williams part, giving Woods cause for his termination.
It is worth noting that since the scandal in late 2009 that began his decline--both personal and professional--Woods' has made other significant personnel changes, including parting ways with former swing coach Hank Haney and leaving mega-agency IMG while retaining Mark Steinberg as his personal agent. Whether Steve Williams' departure ultimately is a productive part of a process of personal life-cleansing remains to be seen, as does the naming of Williams' replacement.
But, of course, Woods will need to become healthy and start preparing to play competitive golf again in order to need such a replacement. One has to wonder whether that will happen this year, or whether 2012 will serve as another "re-boot year" for Woods. There have been rumblings that Woods may return at next week's Greenbrier Classic, but until a formal announcement is made, it is safe to be skeptical about Woods' return as every bit of news he makes becomes more and more tinged with mystery and disquiet.

Speaking of caddying, Hartford area golfers, especially on scorching-hot days such as this, may be looking to play golf accompanied by a caddy. The experience is wonderful, allowing a player to walk the course without the strain of carrying a bag as well. In addition, a great caddy can often be a source of great advice on putts and shot selection as well as a source of mood-lightening jokes and stories. Unfortunately, though, caddying is mostly reserved for the realm of private clubs, meaning public golfers may miss out. In Hartford County, Hartford Golf Club is the only facility with a robust caddy program (I loop there on the weekends); many of Fairfield County's clubs, however, boast squadrons of caddies for their well-heeled memberships.
All is not lost, however, for the avid golfer who lacks access to a tony private club well-stocked with caddies. Great River Golf Club in Milford offers players the opportunity to reserve a forecaddy for their rounds at the upscale daily-fee track (full disclosure: I have not played Great River and so cannot comment on the golf course itself).

I am going to start by saying something that is going to upset a lot of people: homeopathy is a fraud. Homeopathy started about five hundred years ago under the idea that "what makes a man ill also cures him." This idea struggled until it reached it reached a peak in popularity in the 1800s. However, it was criticized heavily by mainstream scientists and was eventually discredited to the point where there where few followers by the 1920s. However, in the 1970s, sensing a commercial opportunity, homeopathy underwent an worldwide revival. Unfortunately, homeopathy does not work. This is not an opinion by the way, but a statement that is backed up by two things, 1) the scientific research and 2) common sense.
Common Sense
First, lets take a look at exactly what homeopathy is. Homeopathic treatments use substances that are thought to make the targeted diseases worse or at least cause the same symptoms, as their active ingredient but only administer it in an amazingly small quantity by repeatedly diluting the active ingredient in water over and over. If fact, the solution is diluted so much that it is nearly impossible for even one single molecule of the active ingredient to be in the "remedy" in most cases. In other words, homeopathic treatments are just plain water.
For example, homeopathic remedies use a dilution factor denoted by the letter "C". In a 60C dilution, the Physicist Robert L. Park former executive director of the American Physical Society showed that for every one molecule of active ingredient, there are 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 molecules water. In other word, it would take a container 30,000,000,000 times the size of the Earth to hold enough water to contain just one molecule of the supposed active ingredient. Sorry, I'm just not that thirsty.
The idea is that somehow the water "remembers" the offending substance and somehow triggers the immune system. I think this is just ridiculous and violated every known scientific principle. I read somewhere that if you pour yourself a glass of water, that water has been through at least seven kidneys through out its existence and that every breath of air that you take contains at least one molecule of air that was inhaled by Jesus (and pretty anyone that lived long enough ago that their breaths could have mix well enough into the atmosphere). The earth is amazingly homogenized and the idea that something that was once in the water is somehow remembered is just silly. If that is true, then why are we not spontaneously healed by the "blessed" air molecule that we share with Jesus, or poisoned by the water that was part of at least seven bathroom breaks. If you look at the rationally, it just doesn't make sense.
The Scientific Research
People that believe in Homeopathy will tell you that there is no research that shows whether or not homeopathic therapies work but this is just what they have heard from those that want you to believe in homeopathy. It is simply untrue. The respected medical journal, The Lancet, recently published an article that examined the results of over 150 research studies and found that there is no evidence at all that homeopathic therapies work any better than a placebo. There are now calls in the medical literature for the community to step up and actively denounce homeopathy as a fraud but I suspect it will be hard to get the message out. The medical community is up against deep pocketed product manufacturers that are making a fortune selling water to people at a huge markup and calling it a "treatment", or worse, a "cure" for what ails them. How many people will have to suffer, or even die before people realize that homeopathy is a fraud.
I urge those reading this, if you see a product with the word "homeopathic" on it, steer clear. It's nothing more than water.

Give a Gift Membership
With this gift of nature, Nature Conservancy magazine arrives all year long. Join
The Nature Conservancy is pleased and grateful to announce an $85,000 grant award from Long Island Sound Futures Fund that will support important fish passage and river connectivity work in Connecticut and on Long Island.
The award will support work at three priority dams. In Connecticut, the dams are the Coleytown dam on the Aspetuck River in Westport and the Tiley-Pratt dam on the Falls River in Essex. In New York, the dam is on Beaver Brook in Oyster Bay, Long Island.
A fish ladder will be constructed at each of the two Connecticut dams. Work could start as early as summer 2014. The dam in Oyster Bay will undergo a feasibility and design alternatives study to determine the best design for fish passage.
"This work will open up more than five miles of critical freshwater spawning habitat for alewife and blueback herring, two species whose populations are in a serious state of decline, and we are hopeful that additional future projects upstream of these dams will allow even more miles of stream to be opened to improve river health," said Sally Harold, director of migratory fish projects for The Nature Conservancy in Connecticut. "The Nature Conservancy is extremely grateful for support from the Long Island Sound Futures Fund and the many other partners who are making this work possible."
This grant was among 23 awarded totaling almost $1.3 million that were announced today in Norwalk, Conn. Top federal and state environmental officials joined the US Environmental Protection Agency and the Long Island Sound Study to announce the grants, which were awarded to local government and community groups in Connecticut and New York under the Long Island Sound Futures Fund.
The grants are for projects that improve water quality, restore habitat, enhance living resources, and educate and involve the public with the ultimate goal of protecting and restoring the Long Island Sound.
This public-private grant program pools funds from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service and corporate partners.
The Conservancy's grant requires a match of almost $60,000, which will be secured through donor support and in-kind contributions.

I remember Kameron Steinhoff as a high school standout at Punahou School. Although his greater skill was in basketball, my first memory was thinking that this was the biggest wide receiver in recent prep football history. The kid was 6' 4" and was a giant against a cornerback who may have stood 5' 8" with high cleats.
As a radio broadcaster for high school sports, I saw many games in 2007 and 2008. One thing for sure, this guy was athletic. He wasn't one of those big wide receivers that you used only in the red zone so you could throw an alley-oop pass in the corner of the end zone. Although, the Buff N Blu did do that. Are you kidding, who wouldn't? But he had some speed to get down the sideline and the size and strength for those crossing patterns.
Steinhoff suffered a serious injury his senior year playing football, rupturing his spleen. Many thought he wouldn't be able to play basketball later that year. But he surprisingly recovered quickly, led the basketball team to the 2008 state championship, and was named Player of the Year.
I had the chance during his senior year to interview both his football coach, Kale Ane, and his basketball coach, Dan Hale. Both of whom would be considered illustrious Punahou student-athlete alums in their own right. Both noted how coachable he was, his work ethic, and how good a person he was. When I interview coaches, that is what I hope to hear.
On the court, like he was on the football field, he was a very good athlete. But he was not the most athletic or the most gifted player. He just worked hard, was committed to excellence, and seemed very grounded. There was no trash talking, no attitude. A good guy that I quietly rooted for.
At HPU, his head basketball coach Darren Vorderbruegge said that he was really working hard and would possibly be contending for a starting spot next season. Even he said the same things his high school coaches said about him. Just a good kid.
Steinhoff died in a skateboarding accident while having fun at a friend's house. Shock. Disbelief. Tragic. All appropriate descriptions. He was only 21 years old.
He is an organ donor. A good kid. Someone I quietly rooted for.

The headline would sound like something off of a gag routine. The ministry of communication announced on Thursday night that the Bolivian president was signed as a player for first division side Sport Boys Warnes. The president is a honorary member of the club and he was treated with this consideration after being signed to be a player on the squad starting next season.
Sport Boys de #Bolivia inscribió a #EvoMorales como jugador profesional pic.twitter.com/yww5232cXW
— Min. de Comunicacion (@mincombolivia) May 16, 2014
According to a report from Radio Panamericana, the news of this "transaction" was confirmed by journalist David Silva who spoke to Sport Boys president Mario Cronenbold. In that discussion, Cronenbold mentioned that there was only one form missing that the club needed to turn in so that the president could be on the roster beginning next semester. He will also have the number 10 jersey reserved for him. That tournament would begin immediately after the World Cup. Morales would be ineligible to play this semester as there are only two rounds left to play.
Morales, 54, is a rabid football fan as well as an avid player of the Beautiful Game. His skills as a player have led to him being called "the best footballer amongst all the heads of state"by World Bank president Jim Yong Kim during a visit to Bolivia in July of last year. Despite his controversial measures and political line similar to other neo-populist regimes currently in place, he always has had a penchant for finding time to play football. Sometimes he's used his love for the game as a potential diplomatic outlet. One example was when he and his Colombian counterpart Juan Manuel Santos played in a match alongside some former Colombian internationals back in 2012.
On the football pitch, he's also seen some not-so diplomatic moments, such as when he kicked a player after taking a knock from him.
The club is scheduled to make an official announcement on Friday. The news comes just hours after Club Bolívar became the first team from Bolivia to reach the semifinals of the Copa Libertadores in 28 years. This is after the club owned by magnate and partner with David Beckham in the upcoming Miami MLS franchise, Marcelo Claure, defeated Argentine side Lanús 1-0 at the Estadio Hernando Siles in La Paz.

Now, it's time to think of how we want the invitations suite to look. Originally, I had wanted the Save the Date to match everything. But, now I'm more thinking that it'll be nice to have those "stand-alone" and not match. But, I do want rest of the suite to match (ie. Invitations, RSVPs, direction cards, etc).
I think we're going to go with DYI with these as well, but not too sure. I guess it depends on the extent of the design and how much work will be involved!
Here are some ideas I've come up with so far!
Source {I saved this picture awhile ago, I don't remember}
Source {Momental Designs}

Source {Wedding Paper Divas}
This is the back to the one above by Wedding Paper Divas - think this is such a cute idea!
As you can probably tell, my vision is something vintage chic. I love the looks of the "viney" flowers and oranges and greens!
Don't want to rush the process, but can't wait until we can design and order these lovelies!!!

Selena Gomez took a little break from music to expand her film résumé with increasingly riskier projects, including the upcoming "Spring Breakers," but now the former Disney princess is ready to head back into the studio. However, just like in her acting career, her new music will show her more mature side.
"I finished three movies this year, so I'm very happy about that, because it's exactly what I wanted: I wanted to do film for a little bit," she told MTV News over the weekend in New York, where she was promoting her self-titled fragrance at Macy's Herald Square. "But I am missing music, so we're going to start on the fourth record at the end of this year."
While it will be a while before Gomez books some studio time, she said she has already started thinking about how this new album, a follow-up to 2011's When the Sun Goes Down, will sound.
"Very different! I want to go for producers that probably wouldn't want me to do their songs," she said. "I just want to knock on their door. I also want to work with Fun. I want to work with just different styles of music."
Her dream collaborations list doesn't begin and end with the "We Are Young" rockers: She wants to get one of her pals onboard as well. "I also want to work with Taylor [Swift] too. So I just want to do different things for this album," she said. "By the time it comes out, I'll almost be 21, so I want to be able to — wow, that sounds really scary! I want it to be older."
While she doesn't necessarily have a timeframe for the album release, fans might want to mark July 2013: That's when she turns the big 2-1, and her album release might be the splashiest way to celebrate her big day. "I'll be actually able to order a drink, so that will be cool, I guess," she said about the milestone. "I think I'll have a big party with my family and have people come out, because I don't really celebrate birthdays."
What are you expecting from Selena's next album? Let us know in the comments!
