CBNNew.com - GAZA STRIP - Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak will reopen border crossings to the Gaza Strip Monday if Hamas makes good on halting rocket and mortar shell attacks on southern Israel, according to the Ramallah-based Ma'an news agency.
If Hamas can enforce a 24-hour period free of shelling, Barak will allow the border crossings to open, the Palestinian news agency reported.
Quoting Hamas spokesman Ayman Taha, Ma'an reported that Hamas and other Gaza-based Palestinian terror groups reached a consensus following Egyptian-mediated efforts.
"We met with factions in the Gaza Strip and told them about the request. They agreed in order to ease the influence of the siege," Taha said.
Meanwhile, Palestinians fired two Kassams on western Negev communities Sunday evening, but Israel still planned to allow a partial opening of the border crossings on Monday, Israel Radio reported.
No personal injuries or property damage were reported following Sunday night's attacks.

This week is supposed to get mighty warm, Clackamas County, so buckle up. Only five days until the weekend.
If you are planning some warm weather activities, such as floating the Clackamas River, check out this story from last week: Clackamas County tentatively approves Clackamas River enforcement, safety measures for floating season
Otherwise, look out for these stories coming this week. And, remember that the weekly Clackamas County board meeting is at 6 p.m. Thursday, instead of the usual 10 a.m.
1. A federal law that is designed to reduce rape in prisons requires juvenile inmates to be held in a way that adult inmates can't see or hear them. That poses a problem for the Clackamas County Jail, where minors who are being tried as adults are housed with adults.
The cost to remodel the jail so the juvenile inmates are out of "sight and sound," as the law puts it, would be more expensive than moving the minors to a juvenile facility in Multnomah County.
The Clackamas County Sheriff's Office already rents 14 beds at the Donald E. Long Juvenile Detention Home, along with Washington County. The sheriff's office is requesting for the commissioners to approve $314,265 to add three more beds to the budget so some people held in the Clackamas County Jail can be shifted to the juvenile center.
The sheriff's office must do something about the situation soon, because federal inspectors will check compliance in September 2014. If the county fails the inspection, it could lose 5 percent of federal funding for the whole county.
2. A poll conducted by the North Clackamas Parks & Recreation District shows that voters in the special district would support paying about an extra $0.20 per $1,000 in assessed value in taxes to allow the district to grow and maintain existing facilities.
The residents in the district, which includes Happy Valley and Milwaukie, also supported splitting the district into its own entity with elected officials.
Currently, the North Clackamas district is a special district, meaning it is separate from Clackamas County. However, the county runs the district's operations, and the county commissioners also sit as the board for the district.
The commissioners, though, are leaning toward asking voters to spin it off into a separate agency that the board wouldn't oversee.

North Clackamas parks split: County commissioners should support split (poll results)
3. The Clackamas County commissioners are planning to name the county weighmaster building after Grady Waxenfelter, a county weighmaster who was shot and killed on the job Feb. 6.
Waxenfelter worked for the county for 17 years.
"Grady was a great colleague and friend to many people in the county, and his passing has left a gap that can never be filled. It is fitting and right that we honor his work and life by giving his name to the building in which he worked," wrote new transportation department Director Barbara Cartmill in her staff recommendation to the board.
The commissioners will likely approve the naming at their 6 p.m. Thursday business meeting.

Home › Health & Behavior › Behavior & Discipline
Ask the Experts
By Debra Collins, Family therapist
My fifth-grader has gotten so she talks back and makes smart or sarcastic remarks whenever asked to do anything. It is so hard to ask her to do anything, knowing there will be an argument to get her to do it without any mouthing and asking over and over.
A fifth-grader may enjoy being one of the oldest kids in their school, at the same time fearing becoming the youngest in middle school. It could be she is trying on new roles at home where it is "safer to act out."
Sarcasm is a way that people show their annoyance, anger or frustration, and their comments often have an intended victim. Since you only mention that this behavior is happening at home and with you, I suspect you are getting the brunt of her "growing pains."
This would be a good time to review if your relationship is changing to reflect her desire for more independence and input. Have her participate in a new list of responsibilities and expectations that you have of one another. Her sarcasm could be her way of telling you that you that she wants a more age-appropriate relationship with you.
It is important to model good communication skills. Examine if your family is more prone to using indirect communication such as humor, sarcasm, or silence. Some use is not harmful, but it sounds like you and your daughter are not feeling respected. Working together to be more empathic and clear and direct might allow both of you an opportunity to better understand one another.
Children and teens get a steady diet of media depicting sarcasm as a common communication style. It is not unusual to hear children using sarcasm regularly with both adults and their peers. It would be useful to explore with your daughter how this might be affecting her relationships and help her to become more discerning.
It is easier to not resort to lecturing or nagging if you remain open and curious about what your daughter is attempting to convey. You might also want to suggest that the teacher have a classroom discussion on sarcasm and its impact on others.
Advice from our experts is not a substitute for professional diagnosis or treatment from a health-care provider or learning expert familiar with your unique situation. We recommend consulting a qualified professional if you have concerns about your child's condition.

I am also from AZ, and I am in perpetual novice mode, so we have a lot in common. Wishing you great results. Have fun!
Hi everyone,
My name is Jared, and as of October 4th, I am switching over to the primal lifestyle. I have roughly 110 pounds to lose. Yikes!
I will be keeping a journal, and at some point very soon, share my story.
I'm excited for the change, but not looking forward to the inevitable carb flu; incredibly worth it though.
Grok on!
I am also from AZ, and I am in perpetual novice mode, so we have a lot in common. Wishing you great results. Have fun!
Welcome, and good luck to the both of you. Stay the course, and you won't be dissappointed. This is really a fabulous lifestyle, and the people here are very supportive. Rock out with your Grok out!
Thank you! It's a great time to go primal; the weather is actually tolerable again.
"Rock out with your Grok out!" Love it! Thanks.
Hey Jared,

Art of Strength West Bloomfield isn't just another gym with typical workout equipment and trainers who lead huge classes to varying and modest results. On the contrary, anyone who's had the good fortune of working out with some of Art of Strength's leading personal trainers in Michigan will attest that the AOS experience is a life-changing one.
One of the key tools in Art of Strength's vintage progression workout approach are the kettlebells. These weights assist in fat loss, toning, strength training, and cardiovascular fitness. A kettlebell workout burns about 400 calories an hour if used properly. Utilizing the full potential of the kettlebell is something AOS head trainer Mike Knight is very conscious of. "99 out of 100 people don't want to do kettlebells because they were trained wrong. But it's just another object to move. It has metabolic advantages. It's going to get your heart rate going."
Two more of the best personal trainers in Michigan are Art of Strength's Scott George and Sarah Smith. Like the rest of the staff at AOS, Scott and Sarah focus on empowering their clients to reach their maximum potential. According Sarah, she aspires to "put the 'fun' back into functional training." With various tools and techniques incorporated into the AOS workout, clients will find their strength and confidence growing in tandem.
As some of the most effective personal trainers in Michigan, the staff at Art of Strength West Bloomfield have changed the lives of men, women, and children from all walks of life and levels of experience. No fitness goal is too big or small. There's a life-changing AOS workout for everyone.

CCF client, Michael Schmidt, grew up in rural Germany where the sale of unpasteurized milk is legal. He obtained a masters degree in agriculture in 1978, writing his thesis on bio-dynamic farming—an early form of modern organic agriculture. He developed the "cow-share" concept in Germany for the purpose of reconnecting consumers and producers to ensure a safe milk supply.
After farming for 10 years in Canada, he received "an ever-growing call by those with food allergies, especially those with lactose intolerance who apparently were unable to drink or consume pasteurized milk." He was also approached by people who had begun to "question the food safety of mainstream large scale food production. Young parents especially with great concerns for the well being of their children kept knocking on [his] door and requested raw milk."
The sale, distribution, and delivery of unpasteurized milk is illegal in Ontario, but it is not illegal for individuals to consume unpasteurized milk if they can acquire it.
To that end, Michael revived his concept of a cow-share program at his Canadian farm. The purpose was to give individuals who purchase a share in the dairy herd legal access to unpasteurized milk. Michael's wish was to bring cow-share members into compliance with the law, not to evade the law.
But unknown to Michael, secret agents from the government had began investigating him. And on November 21, 2006, inspectors from the Ministry of Natural Resources and Public Health executed a search warrant on Michael's farm. Michael was charged with various offences related to the sale and distribution of unpasteurized milk.
Michael was tried before Justice of the Peace Kowarsky in the Ontario Court of Justice in 2009 on 19 charges involving:
- selling, offering for sale, distributing or delivering unpasteurized milk and cheese contrary to the Health Protection and Promotion Act;
- operating a "plant" without a licence contrary to the Milk Act;
- being a "distributor" of milk without a licence contrary to the Milk Act; and
- disobeying a health inspector's written order.
Justice of the Peace Kowarsky acquitted the appellant on all charges. But the government appealed the acquittals.
The appeal was heard in 2011 by Justice Tetley of the Ontario Court of Justice and resulted in 13 convictions. Michael was sentenced to pay fines totaling $9,150 and one year of probation.
As Michael's lawyers, the CCF will be making two major arguments on his behalf. First, on a proper interpretation of the current laws, cow-shares are not illegal in Ontario. Second, the Constitution of Canada protects the right of consumers' to take responsibility for their own health.
Please click HERE to donate to the CCF today and help us defend Michael Schmidt so that Ontarians can have the freedom to acquire and consume unpasteurized milk.

AVON LAKE City Council's finance committee will meet Monday to vote on the proposed millage for a paramedic levy it will ask council to place on the Aug. 7 special election ballot.
The current 1.25-mill levy, approved in 2009, expires this year. Council is weighing a 1.75-mill or a 2-mill levy. It originally sought figures from the Lorain County auditor's office for a 1.25-mill replacement or renewal levy, as well as a 1.5-mill levy. The figures that came back would not generate close to the $1.56 million needed to fund the cost of eight paramedic/firefighters, the chief's secretary and equipment and training.
According to the new figures obtained March 15, a 2-mill levy would generate $1.66 million and a 1.75-mill levy would generate $1.45 million. The 1.75-mill levy would cost a resident with a home valued at $100,000 almost $54 per year. The 2-mill levy would cost about $61 per year. The average home in Avon Lake is valued at $231,000, which would mean paying slightly more than $141 yearly for the 2-mill levy and almost $124 for 1.75 mills.
Mayor Greg Zilka said last week that only the 2-mill will generate enough revenue to avoid the fund dropping into the red.
"Going with the 2-mill would give us a surplus of $109,000. Anything less and we will need to pull money from the general fund to cover the shortfall."
Money from soft billing for ambulance runs goes into the general fund. Simply shifting all of that money to cover the deficit in lieu of a lower millage amount would place too heavy a burden on other city expenditures, Zilka said.
Council President Martin O'Donnell said the fire department needs to continue to look at ways to streamline costs. Firefighters agreed to a wage freeze in the last contract, and Chief Glen Eisenhardt said the department reduced overtime by 7.5 percent. In addition, he is evaluating dispatcher options that, if adopted, would free up an additional firefighter/paramedic. O'Donnell questioned whether adding another part-time firefighter/paramedic "floater" would help cut down more on the overtime costs.
Larry Meiners, finance committee chairman, said given the increase in the number of emergency runs — 78 percent of all calls last year were EMS-related — it is important that the department is funded properly.
"I never want to vote on a levy we know is going to put us in the red," he said, adding that he will vote to recommend the 2-mill levy.
"If we vote 1.75 and it passes, we'll already be in the red $230,000 and it will be worse the following years. If we vote 1.75 and it fails, you're looking at laying off one-third of the department," Meiners said.

T3 and L3 cache, crypto unit algorithm support
"The Sparc T3 chip, by contrast, did not have an L3 cache at all, either on or off the chip, and this no doubt affected its performance detrimentally."
So, you're saying that 4MB of L3 (shared, plus 128kB*8 of L2, not shared) must necessarily beat 6MB of L2 cache (all shared)? Could you perhaps explain your thinking here?
Oh, and a nitpick: Only the first four algorithms mentioned in relation to the crypto unit are in fact ciphers. CRC32c is a checksum and not "encryption". The next four are cryptographic hashes and the last three are specialised instructions to speed up parts of certain algorithms, but are not themselves "encryption" either. Of course, this horribly buggers up the flow of a cheesy write-up, but as a tech reporter I do think you can be expected to understand the difference and come up with cheesy write-ups that retain correctness.
Explaining just why that crypto unit is a big deal for databases would be useful for those of us who aren't big enterprise datamongers. I can guess, but can you explain?

Martha Hacks Ankle Monitor
By Deane Barker on July 5, 2005
Martha Stewart calls lockdown 'hideous': Martha Stewart was in an interview with Vanity Fair when she made this remark. By merely saying this, I bet she violated some intellectual property law somewhere.
Asked about the electronic monitoring device she must wear on her ankle — she has complained repeatedly that it irritates her skin — Stewart says she knows how to remove it.Her lawyer is likely dead from a heart attack by now.
"I watched them put it on. You can figure out how to get it off," she is quoted as saying. "It's on the Internet. I looked it up."
Her publicist's eyes "widened with alarm" when Stewart made the remark. The article didn't say whether Stewart claimed ever to have taken off the device.

Renault has joined forces with the outdoor sport and leisure clothing brand Helly Hansen to market the first Renault Captur to feature Extended Grip, a system designed to optimise traction performance whatever the conditions.
Exclusively, the limited-edition Helly Hansen version of Captur can be ordered in Flamme Red, and generous use of the colour has been made inside the cabin, too. The rugged appeal of this version of Renault's urban crossover is reinforced by the fitment of front and rear skid plates and 17-inch wheels.
Renault Captur Helly Hansen's standard equipment package includes the R-Link multimedia tablet with touchscreen display, plus a long list of other comfort-enhancing features.
Leather upholstery is also available exclusively for this limited-edition version (standard or optional depending on market).
Any of the engines available in the Captur catalogue can be specified for the limited-edition Helly Hansen version which is due to go on sale in June in most European markets, followed by a September release date for France, the Netherlands, Belgium and Spain.
The range of the brand's first urban crossover, Renault Captur, has been expanded by the introduction of a new limited-edition Helly Hansen version developed in association with the celebrated Norwegian outdoor sport and leisure clothing brand founded in 1877. The new addition features a distinctive adventurer look thanks to its exclusive Flamme Red finish, making it the only version of the model to offer this body colour, as well as to its Platine Grey front and rear skid plates and 17-inch black diamond-effect alloy wheels. HH badging on the wings portray indicates the car's association with Helly Hansen.
"We're excited to team up with one of Europe's leading car manufacturers. Helly Hansen has always been about protecting and enabling professionals that face extreme environments – and we're known for our unwillingness to compromise between style and performance. We see the Captur Helly Hansen, as a great way to inspire urban consumers, and give them the confidence to go out and explore more of their world", says Erik Burbank Vice President Brand & Marketing.
Captur Helly Hansen can be ordered in one of four two-tone finishes:
• Flamme Red with a black or ivory roof,
• Etoilé Black with an ivory roof,
• Cassiopée Grey with a black roof,
• Ivory with a black roof.
The limited-edition Helly Hansen version of Captur is equipped with exclusive new leather seats (standard or optional depending on market). Other specific interior embellishments include red dashboard trim strips, a 'carbon fibre' motif for the steering wheel insert, chrome door sill guards and front carpet mats.
Additional grip to facilitate driving whatever the conditions.
Renault Captur Helly Hansen is also equipped with the Extended Grip system first seen on Renault Scénic X-Mod in 2013.
This advanced technology is an evolution of the traction control system designed to optimise grip in difficult conditions, such as snow, mud, sand, etc.
A rotary control on the centre console allows the driver to select the ideal mode for the conditions. There are three modes ('Road', 'Loose Ground' and 'Expert'), the first of which is the default choice for hard surfaces (dry, wet or ice).
The 'Loose Ground' mode puts the Extended Grip system in charge of the driven wheels. Engine torque and braking effort are automatically adjusted to permit more front wheel spin. This allows the M&S tyres (Mud and Snow) to clear mud or sand more effectively and therefore benefit from better grip.
By selecting the 'Expert' mode, the driver can control the delivery of engine torque to accelerate as he or she sees fit, while leaving optimisation of the braking effort to the system.
The Extended Grip system automatically reverts to 'Road' mode at speeds in excess of 40kph is the 'Loose Ground' or 'Expert' mode has been selected.
The system necessitates the fitment of Mud and Snow tyres, the specific tread pattern of which enables them to clear mud, sand or soft snow more efficiently.
About Helly Hansen Brand

Hi there
I'd never heard of them either but one just fell in my lap. I just installed
a Overland SDLT MinilibraryXpress LXM1S215 with 2 Quantum drives and 15 slots.
It installed nice on BENT 8.6 but I've had my share of adventures. It is
super fast (150 GB/Hr). Maybe too fast for my SCSI so I had to slow it to
5mb/sec. I'm getting a lot of Cyclic redundancy errors (read: Catch all
for any tape/head/SCSI problem). It could be my server (It's old and running
Win2k), anyway I'm working on it. I also have a problem with the cleaning
tape. I make a clean job in BENT 8.6 and the cleaner doesn't unload. It
stays in the drive and blocks my next backup job. I have to unload it manually.
PITA (pain in the ass) Otherwise the box seems solid I'd be intersted to
see how you do with yours.

By now, everyone's seen it or at least thought they wanted to see it before quickly turning away.
When Louisville's Kevin Ware broke his right leg in a gruesome incident against Duke in the NCAA Tournament last Sunday, it was immediately elevated to one of the worst injuries witnessed on live television recently in sports.
New York Giants linebacker Lawrence Taylor landed on Washington Redskins QB Joe Theisman's leg during a Monday night game in 1985 and the injury was so devastating that Theisman never played again.
Nearly a decade ago, another collegiate athlete, Alabama wide receiver Tyrone Prothro suffered the same fate as Theisman.
On Oct. 1, 2005, at home against Florida, Prothro was having the game of his life: five receptions for 134 yards with touchdown catches of 87 and 15 yards. But when Crimson Tide QB Brodie Croyle tried to find Prothro for a third touchdown, things went horribly wrong.
Prothro completely fractured the tibia and fibula of his left leg. The junior never played again.
"I don't think you forget an experience like that. It was grueling—something I had never been a part of in athletics with an injury to that extent—and it was emotional for everyone on our team," said current Auburn co-defensive coordinator Charlie Harbison, who was the Alabama receivers coach at the time. "You're right there and you've lost your leader."
When Ware broke his leg, his teammates and coaches, along with some of the Duke players on the court, immediately knew it was serious. Former Alabama safety Freddie Roach said that wasn't necessarily the case with Prothro's injury.
SN's Mike DeCourcy: Ware says 'everything happens for a reason'
"Nobody on the sidelines actually knew how bad the injury was," said Roach, who arrived at Alabama in the same class in 2003. "It's amazing how something someone has worked for their whole life can end in something like that."
Ware suffered a compound fracture and, unlike Theisman and Prothro, he's expected to make a full recovery and play again. He's already on crutches, cheered on the Cardinals from the bench Saturday night and will be there again tonight at the championship game.
Roach hopes the best for Ware and says that a lot of good can come from the incident.
"I feel bad for him and wish him a speedy recovery," Roach said. "Although I know things are tough for him right now, there is no doubt that because this has happened he will affect more people than he ever thought in ways he probably never imagined. Just like Prothro, Ware will fight back and be a man that this world needs. (Sports is) a lot, but who you affect while you're doing it means even more."

This is the easiest CMS system I've ever worked with! Awesome job!
I can't say enough about my recent experiences with Steve DiFranco and Alt Media Studios. I have been so incredibly frustrated with the "web people" I've been trying to use over the past 8 years with my business that I was on the verge of giving up trying to fix the website. In desperation, I put a post on my facebook page searching for help. My friend, Holly Chinnici, directed me to Alt Media Studios and they totally re-did my website. I instantly started getting more traffic on my site and more importantly, the traffic has been converting into business at a higher rate. Satisfied with their services, I reached out to Steve again this past week for help in putting together a site for another business I've started in another town. Once again, Steve knocked it out of the park on the first try...Thanks again Steve!
I have to tell you, you knocked our socks off with this website! I've given a few people that work for me a sneak peek and really, everyone is impressed! You do great work! I will say it again...I'm wowed! This is so user friendly! All the info is there and SO easy to use!
OMG this is easy and looks outstanding. You are the best.
I am writing to express my appreciation for the quality of your work as well as the ease of doing business with Alt Media Studios. Our previous host, 1 & 1, created many difficulties in that they were remotely located, support was out of the country, and we were one of thousands of customers. We actually had an instance where our site lost it's ranking on Google overnight. 1 & 1 told us it was our fault somehow, but ironically the site was back up 10 minutes after our call. Conversely, our relationship with Alt Media Studios has been easy because you are accessible. In addition to accessibility, Alt Media Studios does not use the typical "talk over your head" approach to programming. I truly appreciate the fact that when I ask for something, your answer was typically "no problem" or "send it to me and I'll take care of it." I am so pleased to be moving from 1 & 1 to Alt Media Studios where I can get prompt, honest answers and someone local to work with. Thank you!
Just wanted you to know that we are getting tons of clients from the website!!! It's awesome!!! Whatever we are doing is working so thank you. :)
Anytime you need a reference please don't hesitate to contact me. You have gone beyond the call of duty many times and I am very grateful!
I want to compliment you on how well-organized this judging system is. It's super user-friendly, and your directions were perfect. I'm wondering if you custom-built your judging system (website, instructions, etc.). If so, you should strongly consider developing a generic version of it, patenting it, and selling it for a modest fee to other associations and organizations! I've done communications audits, conducted surveys and have served as a judge in other competitions, and I've never seen a product as good as this one.
As always you guys are the best website guys in the industry. I must say I am 100% completely satisfied with the promptness and the design of our website. You guys are worth every penny...I'll be sure to pass on your online guru knowledge to anyone looking for a website designer.
I got more compliments on my website. Just about every family who works with me goes on and on about how nice it is. It actually has had a lot to do with whether or not someone decides to work with me or another breeder. Thanks! :)
Our online orders have doubled since you [redeveloped] our website.Thanks so much for all that you do. The website is just beautiful and that makes me so very happy, I feel like Seth is being honored in the way he so deserves.
This is just a short note to tell you how much I appreciate you. Thank you so much for all your help. To say we couldn't do this without you would be an understatement. If you ever need a reference, please do not hesitate to offer anyone our name and telephone number. I can guarantee that it would be a stunning review.
We want to thank you for completing our website and getting our payment page up and running. We are very happy with your work and are getting many compliments from people about the great site you designed for us! Thank you so much!
YOU ROCK! WOW -- you are fast, and I sooooo much appreciate you working so quickly to get this site up and running!
I just have to say that I love my new Doggie Inn site. Its so fresh and inviting... again you did such a nice job!
The website is amazing. We had big smiles on our faces when we looked at it! It is exactly the lift our business needs.
You have done a great job. Thank you so much...you did everything perfect...I will recommend you to anyone I know that needs a site and the confidence that someone is there to help!
You have totally exceeded my expectations with the site. It is simple yet beautiful. Easy to navigate and use. I am so glad I found Alt Media Studios.
This is the best website. Thank you so much.
The email program is fantastic! Its hard for me to imagine a business not using this service. Within 5 minutes i was contact by 2 old clients.
The site looks really cool. It was an adjustment initially but it looks really good. I like the design and color. I love color, and the boldness of the red is very impressive. It gives me a feeling i'm unable to describe. but it's powerful. The layout for customers will be so much better. It looks so less cluttered, easier on the eyes and the brain. The picture at the top is very classy, subdued I like it. I'm having magnetic signs made for my car and I want to incorporate something from the website.
Wow, the site looks kick-butt! I can tell you are really in tune to making things look good and functional, it will be fun to work with you, thank you!
Thank you so much - we are really impressed by your promptness. You said it would be live this week and sure enough it is - we appreciate your professionalism and personal standards.
It's beautiful! The pages look wonderful. Somehow they seem to have so much depth and vibrancy, compared to the old site. And they seem so whippy zippy -- are they really coming up that much faster? Seems like it. Everything I've looked at so far looks marvelous. I am so impressed!
You guys did a great job!! Thank you!! and thanks for always responding so quickly :)
What can I say, the website looks outstanding... Thanks, the site really looks great.
We have been thrilled with the professionalism, and engaging personalities of the team at Alt Media Studios. We have been especially pleased with the helpful advice and expertise. It's a comfort to know we now have our very own technology expert. Thanks, Steve and Team for everything!
I have to tell you that [we] are just thrilled about the website and love the new look of it. You are really a terrific designer! Thanks again for all your help and great work.
Congratulations on a job well done! Our new chapter site looks fantastic--so much more professional and visually appealing. Thank you for all of your hard work and effort.
Awesome job! You read my mind on this one. Again, thanks. Looks great. Can't tell you how pleased I am with your work!
Excellent job keeping it simple...[our task] should only take minimal time because of the very simple interface you developed.
Man, leave your computer for a couple of hours on a Friday and [Alt Media Studios] builds a website, starts getting feedback, [and] makes some tweaks...I think everything looks great...That is a very impressive task you have completed in a short amount of time.
I can't express enough how delighted I am with the site. We are getting a ton of orders! The company told me y'all accomplished what it would take their IT Department a year to do! I really appreciated the hoops all of you jumped through for me and my customer. Not to mention it was a pleasure working with each one of you. Thank you all so very very much.
Thanks so much for your efforts thus far. You really do great work.
The colors are great! The graphics are great! The flash is great! And its so easy to find what you are looking for! Great job!

I was on a trip with a friend and she pulled out a small bottle of the Eucalyptus Body Lotion from a previous hotel she had visited. Knowing that I love good-smelling stuff she suggested that I check out this incredible lotion. She was amazed when I pulled out a full-size bottle from my suitcase and said that it was my most favorite lotion in the world! She had no idea it was available beyond that hotel so got right on-line and placed an order (and joined the testing panel as well)!
The best smelling lotion I have ever had!
This is the most amazing lotion I have ever had. Whenever I wear this people ask me what I am wearing. I was on vacation last month and was stopped and asked several times what that beautiful smell was . It is so clean and soft it is my go to lotion everyday. I do not need to wear perfume when I have this lotion on. It is so worth the price for that alone! Try it- you will love it!
this fragance doesn't bug me one bit
i read somewhere that eucalyptus works as a great insect repellent. so far, all the "thymes" i have applied this on the skin and spent long evenings outside in short summer attire, i noticed that my skin not only retains the moisture, holds a fresh scent, but it also doesn't get bug bites in humid weather. thank goodness! i'm going to keep using it for this reason. in my opinion, it's the closest product to a natural insect repellent and just a great product overall.
Enlivening Fragrance
I find the Eucalyptus body lotion to be a lovely summer body lotion. It moisturizes well and the fresh fragrance helps wake me up in the mornings after the shower. It goes on smooth and blends into the skin easily. Lovely scent - fresh and not too overpowering. It perks me up. I would recommend it to others. You'll enjoy it! And it'll help get you energized for your day!

I simply tell people that I am on a high-protein, low-carb diet.
Usually they don't bother inquiring further, since the automatic response is to loudly declare that they wouldn't be able to live without bread.

*eye roll*
There aren't many problems in life that can't be solved by sleeping it off, or adding more butter.
What you need is what we in business call an "elevator speach". Just in case you get into an elevator with a high level exec, you have the ride time to convince him/her that your project needs funding.
Here is mine:
Metabolic Efficiency - Nutrition Elevator Pitch
I eat "real" food – fresh, natural food like meat, vegetables and fruit. I choose foods that are nutrient dense, with lots of naturally-occurring vitamins and minerals, over foods that have more calories but less nutrition. I have chosen to refrain from eating cultivated grains or foods that promote inflammation or rapid insulin production by my body. The quality of the foods that go into my body is important – I'm careful about where my meat comes from, and buy my meats and produce locally and organically as often as possible. When necessary, I will use high quality supplements to ensure I am meeting the needs of my body.
I am not on a calorie restriction "diet" – I eat as much as I need to maintain strength, energy and a healthy weight. My diet is probably much higher in fat than you'd imagine. Fat isn't the enemy – it's a great energy source when it comes from high quality foods like avocado, coconut and nuts. And I'm not trying to do a "low carb" thing, but since I'm eating vegetables and fruits instead of bread, cereal and pasta, it just happens to work out that way.
Eating like this is good for maintaining a healthy metabolism and reducing inflammation within my body. I'm very pleased by my energy levels while eating this way. I don't have dramatic blood sugar highs and lows or the dreaded 2:00pm "slump". My body composition and performance in the gym and on the playing field are showing steady improvement. My chosen diet and lifestyle also helps to minimize my risk for a whole host of chronic diseases and conditions like diabetes, heart attack and stroke.
I spend quality time exercising at a moderately low % of my maximum capacity. Not a day goes by without doing something to promote good form and proper balance between strength and efficiency. By doing this I am teaching my body to rely on fat stores more and carbohydrates less. I periodically exercise in short bursts of very high intensity to promote muscle strength and development. I lift heavy things a few times a week too.
just tell them you only eat meat vegetables and occasionally fruit. if they inquire further you can get specific but generally that about covers it.
Primal Chaos
37yo 6'5"

current 338lbs 49" waist
goal 240lbs 35" waist
I just tell people I gave up eating processed foods and leave it at that. If they ask for more I say I focus on meats, veggies, and fruits.
I tell people that I just stopped eating crap food that was no good for me. They all nod & smile and no doubt figure I'm on low fat & whole grains. Very few people are actually interested enough to enquire further as to what I consider crap food, those that do ask, or show that they are not just making small talk get the benefit of a proper explanation. I have no desire to evangelize or preach to anybody.
People think me weird enough as it is without telling them I am emulating a caveman.
Live. Grow. Flourish.
My Journal/story is at http://www.marksdailyapple.com/forum/thread38948.html
I tell people that all I did was cut out wheat.
That sounds better than saying I don't eat bread, pasta, etc...
If they insepct all the grain products for wheat they will soon realize that EVERYTHING is made out of wheat and a lightbulb might go off...at least they'll realize 'wow this shit is everywhere, maybe there is something to it'.
I also use the "no processed foods" line. Most people don't really ask, as I moved to Boston after losing all the weight, so no one knew me before.
People I work with have seen me shrink since May so they ask me, I don't have to convince them.
But when my wife and I are at a restaurant and I want to substitute the bread and fries I just say:
"Can I substitute the ___? I'm Diabetic."
I've never been refused.

Scripter found success after tough beginnings
Screenwriter John Carlen died Dec. 10 in San Diego, Calif. He was 64.
He suffered a stroke on Dec. 5 at his home in Rosarito Beach, Mexico.
According to an obituary submitted by his friend Tracy Quinn, Carlen was born in a Dallas whorehouse, out of which his great-grandmother ran a criminal empire. He spent time as a male prostitute and a bank robber, then served time in prison.
Carlen taught himself to write in a jail mop closet. His first Hollywood job was a technical advisor on the film, "Straight Time," where he advised Dustin Hoffman and Harry Dean Stanton how to act like real robbers.
With help from the late Jennifer Alward, Rosilyn Heller, and Joan Hyler, he became a fulltime screenwriter.
His first sale was one of the scripts he'd written in prison, the CBS telepic "Thompson's Last Run," starring Robert Mitchum and Wilford Brimley.
In 2002 Nicolas Cage made his directorial debut with Carlen's feature script, "Sonny," loosely based on Carlen's life.
He is survived by two brothers.
A celebration of John Carlen's life will be held shortly. For further information, contact email@example.com.

This animal-related article is a stub. You can help the Zoo Tycoon Wiki by expanding it. Sivatherium is one of the adoptable animals featured in Zoo Tycoon 2: Extinct Animals. It highly resembles the Giraffe or Okapi, except for the moose-like ossicones on the top of its head. The Sivatherium lived more than 8,000 years ago and was the largest member of the giraffe family that ever lived. Unlike the long and lean giraffe, the Sivatherium's body was stout, and its legs were relatively short. It looked more like a heavily built antelope, and its powerful shoulders and short, strong neck supported a broad, heavy head with wide ossicones, or hair-covered horns. Not content with one set of ossicones, the Sivatherium had an extra pair of bony growths that protruded above its eyes. Its closest living relative is the Okapi, or forest giraffe. In Zoo Tycoon 2 The Sivatherium is a 1/2 star adoptable animal and its main biome is savannah. Despite its large size and muscular stature, it is rather easy to be hunted by smaller animals like lions. They are ridiculously fast, as fast or even faster than the reticulated giraffe.

Shop for off-season, clearance items. When it is 97 degrees outside it is hard to think about shopping for long-sleeve shirts and coats.
However, it's a great time to pick up clearance deals on these winter items as stores will practically give them away to make room for fall arrivals.

The Reconciliation Studies minor includes courses rooted in the affirmation that God is the reconciling one, and that God's work of reconciliation occurs in and through Christ, and is worked out through God's people by the power of the Holy Spirit. Reconciliation is worked out in contexts of cultural complexity and historical enmity. For God's people to be equipped to participate in God's work of reconciliation, it is essential to understand biblical and theological perspectives on reconciliation, as well as human cultural contexts, and historical dividing walls. When you take this minor, it is also vital for you to be involved in the work of reconciliation with experienced mentors.
The courses in the Reconciliation Studies minor have been selected because they can offer you insights into the nature, contexts, and challenges of reconciliation. They can also equip you to participate in the work of reconciliation in your given field of study.
A few of the courses in the Reconciliation Studies minor include "Race and Ethnicity," "Cultural Anthropology," and "Women in Christianity." Review all the Reconciliation Studies minor courses and requirements.
To earn the Reconciliation Studies minor, you are required to take a minimum of 34 credits, including 18 upper-division credits.

This June, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued new guidelines for sunscreen labeling. Their hope is that this will give consumers better information about a product's effectiveness and for the first time, the packaging will directly state that sunscreens protect against skin cancer and early skin aging.
According to the FDA, SPF or Sunburn Protection Factor is a measure of how much solar energy (UV radiation) is required to produce sunburn on protected skin relative to the amount of solar energy required to cause sunburn on unprotected skin. As the SPF value increases, sunburn protection increases.
The new guidelines, which will go into effect by summer 2012, will remove much of the guesswork from sunscreen shopping. Any product that is labeled "broad spectrum,'' and has an SPF rating higher than 15, should protect against both sunburns and skin cancer. To reinforce the point, products that don't meet those standards will have a clear warning. "Broad spectrum" means protection not just from UVB radiation, but from UVA radiation too. How high of an SPF should you choose? Is SPF 50 really that much better than SPF 30? As reported by the Los Angeles Times, Dr. Janet Woodcock, director of the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, states that the new guidelines are designed to reduce consumer confusion.
The SPF in sunscreen ranges from two (2) to as high as 50, but how much stronger is the 50 than the 2? SPF refers to a product's ability to screen or block out the sun's harmful rays. According to the American Melanoma Foundation (AMF), if you use a sunscreen with an SPF 15, you can be in the sun 15 times longer that you can without sunscreen before burning.
It is important to remember that SPF protection does not increase proportionally with an increased SPF number, so while an SPF of 2 will absorb 50 percent of UV radiation, an SPF of 15 absorbs 93 percent and an SPF of 34 absorbs 97 percent. Additionally, because a lot of sunscreens rub off or don't stay put, most dermatologists advise you reapply every two hours or after swimming or sweating.
A Summary of the FDA's New Sunscreen Guidelines:
While proper sunscreen use is an obvious way to help prevent the risk of early skin aging and skin cancer, other recommended methods of protecting your skin from the dangerous effects of the sun include the following:
In accordance with the FDA, Maxim Healthcare Services is highlighting sun protection as an important public health issue, and sunscreen as an integral part of a comprehensive sun protection regimen. The FDA's new guidelines and regulations on sunscreen labels will bring awareness to and acknowledges the importance of UVA protection in the prevention of skin cancer.
Maxim hopes that these new FDA rules will enable you to choose sunscreens wisely and help protect you and your loved ones from the serious, long-term effects of the sun. Remember, cancer treatment is much more difficult than cancer prevention.

I'm Sugar (No. 93), and I came to the shelter in November in very bad shape. Someone had found me wandering alone and confused in Kahului. At 12 years old, I had bad eyes, hearing, teeth and bum knees. At times, it seemed like I had everything stacked against me. For some reason, everyone at the shelter fell hard for me. Then, Lorie stopped in for a quick visit to the shelter on her vacation. At first, she felt sorry for me. Then she fell in love. Lorie and her family decided I should move to live with them in Portland, Ore. After weeks of tests, vaccinations and a ton of emails, I finally made my way to my new home. Now I even live across the street from a dog park! I hope you'll give my friends at the shelter a happy ending of their own.

I had this conversation with my sister just the other day too. It went something like this;
Me: I often dont eat breakfast, and somtimes if Im busy enough I wont even eat lunch, and I feel great.
Sis: That is so unhealthy! You are starving yourself which will cause you to overeat at your next meal, which will make you put on more weight. Also, if you dont eat you wont have any energy to run on!
Me: I have plenty of energy, thats what fat stores are for. I just said I felt great and have plenty of energy and also I wasn't making a point to not eat breakfast; I simply was not hungry. Why should I force myself to eat if I am not hungery?
My sis really had nothing to say to that. Also, Im a size 2-4 jeans, and I just told her that this has been routine for me since going primal, does it look like I binge at my next meal and get fat? Uggh...
One last thing, even though it wasn't really a moment, more of an ongoing annoyance; My soon-to-be inlaws think they've got it all figured out; they eat low fat, high carb (always whole grain). My S.O. always ate like this while he lived with them obviously and he had horrible acne, was underweight, and stuggled to make any gains in weightlifting. Soon as we switched to primal they told us we we're killing ourselves, even though Kyles acne cleared up and he started making gains like crazy when he lifts. Same goes for me *and* I lost 40ish pounds. This is the saddest part; she has horrible osteoporosis, passes out (litterally!) if she doesn't eat every three hours because of her horrible blood sugar crashes (docs solution; eat more often ) and even though both of them hike up a huge hill for 2hrs every morning, I can only describe them as skinny-fat, right around the middle, in a way Im pretty sure isn't healthy and indicates high cortisol levels due to all the cardio. He thinks that because he can climb that huge hill he is way healthier than anyone, including Kyle, and often makes jabs at him and me about how we cant walk up that hill as fast as he can. I've (sadly and embarrassingly) lost my patience a couple of times and asked him to squat 25+ pounds more than he weighs 25x's and then we can talk and they still make comments like Kyle does this to play along, and maybe it works for me but I'm a special little snowflake, Kyle is normal and should go back to eating like them because they're doing so well . Honestly, Im so frustrated by this sometimes its hard to be happy to stay at their place in Hawaii every summer, but my S.O. cant bear to not see them for a few weeks every year so off we go...I love him so I have to suck it up and try my hardest not to explode at them... Wow, I really had to vent that. Sorry

My story: http://www.marksdailyapple.com/i-now...#axzz2MzPtxo00
I was at my mothers the other day, my sister asked her before we ate if she had any butter,, mom states it is already on the table. What was there was country crock. I told her that wasn't butter, she states that is all she buys because the butter causes her blood sugar to rise, I told her it wasn't the butter, it was the biscuits or cornbread she was putting it on. She states fat causes blood glucose to rise and I got so frustrated after a while until I yelled it is not the fat but the carbs she is eating. The worst part is my mother bought The Primal Blueprint book but she ahs not even opened it to read it. She makes me want to bang my head repeatedly on the table.
My husband and I went to the WV state fair yesterday and saw some funny bumper stickers/window stickers for your car. One showed a deer squatting and doing his business and the caption read VEGETARIAN my food poops on your food. one said VEGITARIAN old indian word for poor hunter, we were cracking up.
This A.M. at the store, horribly obese woman with 400 ish boxed pasta dinners and must have been 50 L of diet Pepsi on a motorized wheelchair. Clearly affluent and clearly well educated from her conversation with her husband next to her. I so wanted to grab them and beg them to change what they were eating.
Why cant I grab people and make them understand? Why do I want to? I am not a Christian, none of that "my brother's keeper" thing, people's orlog or fate is their own to forge but it kills me to see this.
Paleo is growing but in Montreal what I see is very few people have even heard of the concept, why are we not out on the street shouting our truth from the rooftops?
Primal since April 2012 Male 6' 3" SW 345lbs CW 240lbs GW 220lbs and when I get there I am getting a utlikilt. This one http://www.utilikilts.com/company/pr...ilts/workmans/ actually.
Join me at www.paleoplanet.net, where all the cavemen hang out.
Because of Chocotaco and Derpamix. :PPaleo is growing but in Montreal what I see is very few people have even heard of the concept, why are we not out on the street shouting our truth from the rooftops?
CW moment:
I was on a Primal forum and some people were all, "Eat more carbs!". lol.

Steak, eggs, potatoes - fruits, nuts, berries and forage. Coconut milk and potent herbs and spices. Tea instead of coffee now and teeny amounts of kelp daily. Let's see how this does! Not really had dairy much, and gut seems better for it.
I feel like people just don't want to make the effort. I'm sure that couple knows they eat like crap, yet are unwilling to make alternative options. I know a TON of people fully aware of primal and paleo, but unwilling to change bad habits.Paleo is growing but in Montreal what I see is very few people have even heard of the concept, why are we not out on the street shouting our truth from the rooftops?
I have seen a HUGE push to promote fruits and vegetables as a major part of our diets (whole grains and fat arguments aside), yet people STILL fill their carts with junk and skip the produce aisle.
Check out my blog. Hope to share lots of great recipes and ideas!
I overheard a lady at a restaurant. She was ordering a chicken burger and requested no bun bc she was "trying this gluten free thing". But then her chicken burger was breaded and apparently that was ok as long as it didn't have the bun.
Needing some accountability, so here's my stats:
34yrs old, 5'5"
CW: 163lbs (07/2014)
GW: 135lbs or less
Eating mainly paleo, but including a bit of white rice (don't call the Paleo Police!)
Was out doing all manner of sprints on the football field by my place early this morning (shirtless, barefoot, of course), and a hefty lady came out and walked 5 or 6 laps around the track at a slow pace. And instead of thinking "Ugh, look at that heavy lady not even pushing herself physically!" I thought, "Hey, look at that lady getting her slow moving in first thing in the morning. Way to go!"

Joe "Butterball" Tamburro, 70, the radio personality and tastemaker who built a bond with Philadelphia music makers and music lovers over a nearly 50-year career at rhythm and blues station WDAS-AM, died Friday, July 27.
Mr. Tamburro died at his home in Haverford, according to Loraine Ballard Morrill, news and community affairs director for Clear Channel, which owns WDAS (1480). No cause of death was given, but Morrill said Mr. Tamburro had been battling complications from heart disease and diabetes and had not been well.
An Italian American from South Philadelphia who began work at WDAS in 1964 as an advertising salesman after a brief career as an auto mechanic, Mr. Tamburro soon had his own show alongside such other legendary record spinners as Georgie Woods, Jocko Henderson, and Hy Lit. Station manager Jimmy Bishop hired Mr. Tamburro and gave him his nickname "because I was sort of overweight," Mr. Tamburro told The Inquirer in 1997.

The Portland Mercury article Greenwashing is an excellent article raising some interesting concerns about the leadership of the 'green' community and the Columbia Bridge project.
There are a host of issues with the bridge - environmental concerns are a major importance. One concern ought to be the increase in carbon emissions.
Doesn't it go without saying that 12 lanes of traffic however well managed will increase carbon emissions?
Highways are one of those - if you build it they will come - projects. California has proven it over and over that the more you build or expand the highways - the more they fill up.
But why the near silence from the environmental groups? While I do not ascribe to all the tenants of the 'green' movement, I do look to them for their position on issues and relevant information.
It is difficult to believe that any group is so naive as to rely on the 'sustainability mayor' to do the right thing. Leadership ought to be their role.
'Sustainability mayor' - a self-attached appellation. It is so easy to be 'green' when campaigning - it is an excellent camouflage.
Doesn't the failure of the environmental groups to speak out initially equates to a tacit approval? Influence is best felt at the beginning not at the end of the project.
This lack of vocal opposition has lessen their influence on other aspects of the bridge project and has damaged their leadership credibility in general.

on March 24, 2013 - 1:00 AM
Dear Abby: My best friend of more than 12 years – the pastor of a large church – was sent to prison several months ago for soliciting sex with two minor children. While I despise what he did, I have enough intimate knowledge to know this was a one-time thing. He's a sex addict and, while this does not forgive the act, it was just an escalation of his addiction.
I have decided to forgive him and be supportive. My problem is, I knew about his addiction for 11 of the 12 years we have known each other. I feel I could have prevented all this from happening if I had told others and helped him get treatment. How do I apologize to all of those who loved and supported him, not knowing he wasn't celibate?
– The Guilty Enabler
Dear Enabler: Excuse me? "Just" an escalation of the man's sex addiction? The man's lack of character is appalling. That you would turn a blind eye to what he was doing indicates that you have issues of your own that need resolving. Forget about apologizing. You can't make this better.
Beau shuns holidays
Dear Abby: My boyfriend was raised in a family that didn't celebrate holidays, including birthdays. While he no longer identifies with his family's religion, he still doesn't recognize any celebrations.
I was raised with all the traditions surrounding the holidays. I feel they are very important. I have tried explaining this to him, but his attitude toward holidays borders on hatred.
He recently told me he wants me to stop including him in activities related to holidays and birthdays, and I'm not sure what to do. Would it be unfair to ask him to compromise with me?
– No Happy Birthdays
Dear No Happy Birthdays: You could ask him to compromise, but it would be unrealistic to expect that someone with his ingrained attitude will do so. A fish and a bird may love each other, but it doesn't mean they can happily cohabit. If you want a happy relationship, find someone whose traditions more closely resemble your own.
