Bleeding Black and Gold: CHARMED
December 2, 2012 - Ray Eckenrode
The score: Pittsburgh 23, Baltimore 20
The headline: CHUCK IT: Resurgent Batch torches Ravens as battered Steelers make a statement.
The bottom line: At its best, how awesome is the NFL? There were Shaun Suisham, who was almost laughed out of football, and Charlie Batch, who we all laughed at last week, and Kelvin Beachum, who no one thought should be playing except his position coach, and Heath Miller, who we all thought was going to be blocking rather than receiving, all of them playing their tails off to pull of the most improbable Steelers win since an idiot kicker shanked a field goal in Indianapolis in 2006.
It was over when: Suisham split the uprights again on the game's final play for his absolutely amazing 28th straight field goal made inside 50 yards. Ironically, it was almost three years to the day when Suisham, kicking for the Redskins, missed a 23-yarder on national TV that would have beaten the then-undefeated Saints.
Plays of the day:
+ Early in the third quarter, Batch quickly realized Jon Dwyer was going to be able to bounce outside on a dive play and led the way 16 yards into the end zone, shielding the only Raven who had a chance to make the tackle en route.
+ With 4:52 left, Pittsburgh faced a 3rd-and-7 from their own 18, Batch hung in the pocket and took a mammoth hit from Haloti Ngata (looked like helmet to sternum, definitely bounced Batch's head hard off the turf) but completed the pass to Mike Wallace for a mammoth-er first down AND looked straight to the white hat and said, "He hit me in the head." We have no doubt that subtle reminder ensured Paul Kruger was called for roughing on the first play after the 2:00 warning, which put the Steelers into field goal range.
+ James Harrison strip sack! James Harrison strip sack!! That is all.
Zebra hunting:
+ You can see why this crew and Alberto Riveron are highly regarded, few holding calls, never lost control of the game, applied the rules precisely on the replays.
+ As we speculated/feared in our pregame blog, they were susceptible to the #RavensBestPlay, otherwise known as defensive passing fouls. First, we got a borderline 35-yd pass interference against Cortez Allen after some hand fighting and a Torrey Smith acting job, which led to a field goal. Then, an official 25 yards from the play called a defensive hold on Keenan Lewis on a critical third down play to keep a Ravens drive alive that ended in one of Anquan Boldin's patented tough TD catches.
Game mismanagement:
+ The Ravens with textbook mismanagement of two second-half timeouts. First, Flacco burned one to avoid a delay penalty. Rule of thumb: Don't use a timeout in the second half to avoid a five-yard penalty unless a potential score is involved. Second, Harbaugh got bad advice from someone in the booth in challenging an incomplete pass by Batch in the third quarter. The play was clearly a forward pass and intentional ground and/or "in the grasp" are not reviewable plays. After blowing those two, it was karma that the Ravens lost their third on an injury inside two minutes, meaning the Steelers were able to bleed the clock down to :02 before attempting the field goal. Had the Ravens had all three TOs in their pocket, the field goal would have come with about 1:22 remaining.
Hot topics:
+ The Steelers are trying to get healthy, but just keeping more injured. Ike Taylor suffered what was almost certainly a high-ankle sprain in the first quarter (on a play very similar to the play in the Giants game where Antonio Brown suffered a high ankle sprain) and almost certainly will miss an extended period. Cortez Allen took Taylor's spot and was alternately brilliant and torched. We're guessing the Steelers can tighten that up with a week of practice in their new positions. Meanwhile, it looked like Troy Polamalu played 30-40 snaps by design, and made it through the game without reinjuring himself. Polamalu wasn't really a factor, but that's not important right now. What's important is that he's ready to be a factor on Dec. 23 when the Steelers host the Bengals.
+ The Steelers makeshift offensive line was unbelievable in pass protection with Batch often getting five seconds to wait for a receiver to come open. And no one was more solid than Beachum, a rookie 7th rounder from SMU. Beachum has been a special project for line coach Sean Kugler since camp and that attention paid off this week. Pittsburgh was able to run the ball early in the game, but the Ravens shut that down in the second half for the most part, but at the price of leaving receivers running uncovered in the secondary. Of course, Batch should have had two more TDs, wildly overthrowing Mike Wallace on one, then watching Emmanuel Sanders fumble another away trying to do the right thing and switch the ball to his outside hand.
+ In case you missed it, CBS' Jason La Canfora reported during Sunday's pregame shows that "some" Steelers players were questioning whether Roethlisberger could have played against the Ravens. Members of the Pittsburgh media, who are in the locker room every day, quickly chimed in that they've heard no such thing. We're guessing the truth is somewhere in between. We'd be the farm (that we don't have) that La Canfora's anonymous source is the same one who told him last week he expected Roethlisberger to play this week and we'd double down on the fact that source is a Steelers coach front office staffer. We'd also guess there's the same kind of grumbling among some Steelers players about Roethlisberger being a drama queen as there is among the fan base. We seriously doubt there's a level of discontent that will cause any issues once #7 is under center again.
+ In case you missed it II, Mike Tomlin and John Harbaugh had a minor dustup after the game when Tomlin briskly walked past/though Harbaugh's attempt to congratulate him.
+ Heath Miller has largely been MIA since Marcus Gilbert's injury because he's been needed to chip opposing pass rushers, but he got back in the game in a big way Sunday, catching five passes for 97 yards and scoring an amazing TD when he stretched the ball from the 2-yard-line to the pylon on a checkdown pass.
+ There's been a theme in nearly every big Steelers win over the Ravens in the past five years and it involves the number of touches Ray Rice (who we consider to be the best RB in the NFL) gets. When it's less than 20, the Ravens usually lose. On Sunday, it was 12 rushes and a single pass reception. When the Ravens beat the Steelers in Pittsburgh, Rice had 25 touches.
In the booth:
+ Jim Nantz was not on his A-game as far as Steelers hating, which somehow makes winning less fun.
+ But have you noticed how Phil Simms really hesitates to take a position on anything anymore? Every call either could have gone either way or the official was right. Every piece of strategy is "understandable." It's annoying.
And now, a word from our sponsors…:
+ Does Verizon know that no one likes Lebron James?
+ We'll bet the Cam Newton quarterback kid could flatten the double laser beam kid in a playground fight.
Sweet tweet: "@LaMarrWoodley: Bad idea Ray, just ask Lendale White and TJ. #whosyourmama." (Blogger's translation: This tweet from the injured Steelers linebacker was accompanied by photo of Ray Rice wearing the Terrible Towel over his head after the Ravens win in Pittsburgh. Mr. Woodley is pointing out that the last two players to defame the towel ended up on the short end of the score the next time the two teams met. To be fair, Rice realized that right away and tried to undo the damage but the towel's power is strong.)
Next week: The win Sunday bought the Steelers a few more weeks to rest Ben Roethlisberger, should that become necessary. That's because they could lose the next two and still have a good shot at getting in as the sixth seed by beating Cincinnati and Cleveland at home the last two weeks. Of course, no one wants it to come to that, but Pittsburgh probably needs to run the table to take the #5 seed from the Colts so there's not a lot of in-between. A win over San Diego would not be meaningless, though, as it helps with the conference-record tiebreaker, where the Steelers currently trail every other AFC contender. The Chargers, of course, are led by the man the Steelers once considered drafting as their quarterback of the future, Phillip Rivers. Phillip has played poorly in Pittsburgh when he's brought in a contending team, but how will he play in a spoiler role? Frankly, we're worried about that.

Press-Citizen- An Iowa City man has been charged with indecent exposure after an alleged incident in Ryerson's Woods Park. According to a criminal complaint, two witnesses reported seeing Gerald C. Meyer, of Ellis Avenue, lying naked and masturbating on a picnic table at 8:16 p.m. Sunday. When the witnesses confronted him, Meyer said he was "playing with himself," police said. Police say they found Meyer, 43, in a van matching the witnesses' description and the witnesses identified him in a six-photo lineup. Meyer is charged with indecent exposure, a serious misdemeanor. He was booked and released Sunday.
First of all, that guy looks like Christopher Walken, right? Like a lot? Yeah, he does. After I saw that mug shot and read the story all I could think about was him saying to the witnesses was "I'm playing with myself" in Walken's voice and then going off into a long monologue about a gold watch he had hidden in his ass. That gave me a good laugh. Second, it's pretty clear what he was trying to avoid here. Tan lines. Ever heard of them? Those things can be the goddamn devil, they look ridiculous and there's no telling how long they'll last. Just ask Big Cat. And there's nothing more boring than laying out to get a tan. You literally just lay there and let the sun cook you like a piece of bacon. It's boring as shit. I don't know how girls do it all the time but they love it. So maybe this guy is looking for a way to break the boredom and, whoops, all of a sudden he's nakedly jerking off while laying on a picnic table in the middle of a public park. Hey, it happens. When you break it down like that you could totally see it happening to anybody. All the pieces are there for a rational argument to be made that he's simply hyper aware of his physical appearance and wanted to look as good as possible. Or he's just a lunatic weirdo who likes to get off on picnic tables in the park. Either way.
you're talking to my man all wrong. do it again, and ill stab you in the face with a soldering iron
looks nothing like Christopher Walken. idiot.
haven't you seen the milking porn tab respect the hustle
Some homeless black on the light rail started yelling "I hate white people, get away from me" on my way to work today. God damnit, do I hate black people right now.
looks like Christopher Walken as in they are both males? yes. Other than that, no.
See Trent, this is what happens when you don't share your pretty pigs with other people.
Never nude at least get the quote right. Good try. Good effort.
Looks more like a deranged Giovanni Ribisi
Trent you're either blind or retarded. That's the only explanation for why you would think that guy even remotely resembles Christopher Walken
The lady breast feeding her kid at the same table was probably offended
Yea trying to tan at 8:16 pm….
Whoever's in charge of putting these articles up, PLEASE post one on someone I know who just got arrested in manchester, nh. His name is Jon kurylo, 29. Entertainment at its best lol!

This figurine represents Susannah Cibber as Sigismunda, the vivandière in James Thomson's tragedy Tancred and Sigismunda. In the 18th century a vivandière was a woman who sold food and drink to soldiers and was often a soldier's wife. Susannah Cibber played Sigismunda opposite David Garrick as Tancred at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane in 1756. Garrick played Tancred in the original production in 1745 and he frequently revived the play at Drury Lane.
The figure was produced by the Derby factory as a pair to the figurine of Garrick as Tancred. The Derby porcelain factory was established in about 1750 by the Huguenot, Andrew Planche. In partnership with William Duesbury, they produced figures of extremely high quality. By 1770 Duesbury acquired the famous Chelsea China Works and the Bow moulds which resulted in the transfer of a number of extremely skilled craftsmen from London to Derby. They opened a London showroom in 1773 and in 1775 King George III granted the factory the honour of being able to incorporate a crown into the backstamp.

Northwestern's Tewell wins Punt, Pass & Kick national title
DENVER -- Everything came together on a national stage for Nate Tewell on Saturday.
Tewell, a sophomore at Northwestern High School, won the national championship in the boys 14-15-year-old division at the NFL's Punt, Pass & Kick finals at Valor Christian High School.
Tewell took advantage of the two-round format in which only the highest scores from each skill counted.
After relying heavily upon his kicking throughout the competition, Tewell posted a strong throw during the first round, tossing the ball 182 feet, but he wasn't impressed by his kick or his punt.
"I knew I had to improve my kicking in the second round," Tewell stated.
Tewell did just that, blasting a 155.5-foot kick and a 133-foot punt to put himself in contention for the win.
In the end, Tewell finished with a score of 470.5, more than 50 points ahead of Noah Wanzek of Jamestown, N.D.
"It was an unreal feeling," said Tewell, who had to watch as Wanzek finished the final round at the opposite end of the field not knowing exactly where he stood on the leaderboard.
"I knew my score was good, but I could hardly believe it," Tewell added.
Tewell and the other champions will be honored after the third quarter of today's AFC divisional playoff game between the Denver Broncos and San Diego Chargers.

The Tourist
Movie Review
Travel guides—even the best of 'em—can't tell you everything.
Oh, sure, they're fine if you just want to know how many euros that bistro down the street will run you, or where the bus stops are, or whether you need to bring a pocketful of change for the nearest public toilet.
But they always miss the really important details.
For instance, let's say you're a nondescript, unmarried American male math teacher on a train to Venice for vacation: How should you react if a beautiful, mysterious woman sits down across from you and starts flexing her large, painted lips? Does your guidebook have that eventuality indexed somewhere?
And then, let's say that once you reach Venice, the same beautiful, mysterious woman asks you to spend the night (on the couch) in her fabulous canal-side suite. How is a traveler to handle that? And where's the advice for what to do the next day when, instead of finding that beautiful and mysterious woman waiting for you, you find a hot breakfast and a couple of men with guns? Does your guidebook tell you which way to run on page 79? Does it hint at whether you're allowed to eat first or not on 218? Does it say how much of a tip you're supposed to leave the gunmen on 344?
Frank Tupelo finds all of this out the hard way. Still wearing his pajamas, Frank does what most of us would do if we were suddenly confronted by two men who start shooting through the bathroom door: He panics. And he jumps out the window, leaping about the rooftops of Venice.
Positive Elements
His guidebook doesn't tell him to, but Frank still falls head over heels for Elise, the enigmatic stranger he meets on the train. Elise also finds herself somewhat taken by Frank. So they spend much of the film saving each others' lives, and what could be more positive (or romantic) than that?
We also see a tip-top work ethic modeled by Inspector John Acheson, an English law enforcement type who hopes to haul in Elise's one-time lover, Alexander Pierce. It was Alexander who stole 2.3 billion British pounds from a notorious gangster, and so technically he owes the British government about 744 million pounds in back taxes. Acheson, with very little encouragement from his boss, makes it his mission to bring Alexander to justice.
Spiritual Content
Elise wears a bracelet bearing the symbol of the two-faced Roman god Janus���a gift from her mother and a reminder that everyone has two sides to them: "We must embrace them both in someone we love," she says.
Gangster Reginald Shaw says that he'll not just kill the person who stole from him, but their spouses, their children, their mothers and possibly their family doctors too. Why? Because he paid what he calls the "infinite price" for his ill-gotten gains: "My soul."
Sexual Content
We learn that Elise spent a year living with Alexander. She and Frank kiss thrice—and all three are pretty passionate smackers. When Elise tells Frank he'll need to sleep on the couch outside her bedroom, he considers barging into her room anyway—going so far as to turn the bedroom doorknob. Elise watches the knob turn as she undresses (we see her lacy underwear) and seems to wish Frank would walk in on her … but Frank changes his mind and goes back to the couch. There he dreams he walks in on her and gives her a kiss.
Elise wears a bevy of glamorous outfits—many of which bare her shoulders, showcase her breasts and/or accentuate her curves. When she's walking down the street, the surveillance team tailing her focus on her rear as they giggle over whether she's wearing underwear that day.
Violent Content
Characters get slapped, punched, chased, shot at and occasionally knocked around with various maritime instruments (a life preserver and the underside of a boat). A police officer gets accidentally pushed into a canal. Frank is dragged behind a boat.
More intense is a scene in which an unfortunate thug gets strangled with a tailor's measuring tape.
We hear that Shaw killed all his wife's lovers and, when he learned how many she had, he killed her too. He threatens Elise with a knife, trailing it menacingly across her face and lips. Several people are killed by snipers in a climactic but essentially bloodless finale.
Crude or Profane Language
Two f-words, two s-words and a smattering of milder curses including "a‑‑," "b‑‑tard," "h‑‑‑," "d‑‑n" and "bloody." God's name is misused at least three times.
Drug and Alcohol Content
When Elise first meets Frank, he's puffing on an e-cigarette—an electronic device that gives users a hit of nicotine while appearing to be a real cigarette. (The end lights up with an orange LED, and water vapor curls from the end like smoke.)
"That's disappointing," Elise says when Frank tells her what the thing is. Frank asks her whether she wishes he smoked for real, and she says, "I'd rather you be a man who did exactly as he pleased." So, later, Frank does smoke a real cigarette. We see other characters light up too.
Elise and Frank imbibe wine, champagne and mixed drinks.
Other Negative Elements
Inspector Acheson's investigative focus is so narrow that he rarely thinks of the innocents who might be harmed in his pell-mell attempt to nab Alexander.
[Spoiler Warning] Frank and Elise make off with Shaw's money and sail off into the sunset. They leave behind a check made out to the British government for 744 million pounds, which prompts Acheson's boss to close the case. Acheson still wants to see justice served, but he's told that the money's really all the department wanted.
We see some gangster cronies play poker.
Frank tells Elise that where he comes from it's complimentary to call someone "grounded." We Americans, apparently, are no-nonsense types who respect folks who are down to earth.
But Frank says he's tired of that. "You are the least down-to-earth person I ever met," he dreamily tells Elise.
The Tourist, much like Elise, is completely untethered from what most of us would recognize as reality. This movie is a breezy affair bearing little grit, no grime … and no point. Just exciting chase scenes and loving looks and befuddled cops.
Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck, director and a co-writer for The Tourist, may have hoped it would feel a bit like an old-school Alfred Hitchcock film. And to some extent, it does. The intrigue, the exotic locales, the chilly femme fatale and the seemingly bewildered everyman, they're all onscreen. Even the restraint the film shows in the sex and violence departments—while indulging glamorous depictions of drinking and smoking—makes the film feel like a 1950s throwback.
'Course, most of Hitchcock's works managed to keep you guessing while the mystery was in progress and made sense when it was solved. Those are items The Tourist didn't pack in its luggage. It boasts some heavy-duty star wattage but never shakes its dim storyline. This is a two-hour escape from reality where the most meaningful thing we see is the closing credits.

"For local group Lapis Luna, authenticity goes beyond skin deep. This is a band that not only looks and sounds like a jazz combo from over 50 years ago; they actually could easily be mistaken for one."
-Robert Sutton, JazzCorner
"The nostalgic atypical repertoire of seldom heard, once forgotten and too often overlooked gems, preserved in their original juice delivered with lots of sass and sauce and captured within a timeless visual vessel. Their focus, respect for the music, composure, and their easy does it manner made their sound quite appealing. They neither wore out nor bored the audience. Quite the contrary, they managed to keep the audience around all evening and even got them out of their seats to dance….I for one."

Assessing Irregular Warfareby Eric V. Larson Brian Nichiporuk Derek Eaton Thomas S. Szayna
Provides an analytic framework and procedure for the intelligence analysis of irregular warfare (IW) environments that can serve as the basis for IW intelligence curriculum development efforts. Defines IW in terms of two stylized situations: population-centric (such as counterinsurgency) and counterterrorism. Provides a detailed review of IW-relevant defense policy and strategy documents and a list of relevant doctrinal publications.
Developing an Army Strategy for Building Partner Capacity for Stability Operationsby Jefferson P. Marquis Justin Beck Scott Hiromoto Derek Eaton Jennifer D. Moroney
The U.S. government is facing the dual challenge of building its own interagency capacity for conducting stability operations while simultaneously building partner capacity (BPC) for stability operations. This study finds that although BPC and stability operations are receiving a good deal of attention in official strategy and planning documents, insufficient attention is being paid to the details of an integrated strategy.
Integrating Civilian Agencies in Stability Operationsby Terrence K. Kelly Derek Eaton Brooke Stearns Lawson Thomas S. Szayna James E. Barnett
How can the Army help make key civilian agencies more capable partners in stability, security, transition, and reconstruction (SSTR) operations? The authors identify the civilian agencies that should be involved in such operations, then locate the necessary skill sets. They then assess the capacity of the civilian agencies to participate in SSTR operations and analyze the recurring structural problems that have plagued their attempts to do so.
Overseas Basing of U.S. Military Forces: An Assessment of Relative Costs and Strategic Benefitsby David R. Frelinger Michael J. Lostumbo John Halliday Eric Peltz Derek Eaton Stacie L. Pettyjohn Victoria A. Greenfield Jerry M. Sollinger Patrick Mills Bruce R. Nardulli Stephen M. Worman Michael J. Mcnerney
This independent assessment is a comprehensive study of the strategic benefits, risks, and costs of U. S. military presence overseas. The report provides policymakers a way to evaluate the range of strategic benefits and costs that follow from revising the U. S. overseas military presence by characterizing how this presence contributes to assurance, deterrence, responsiveness, and security cooperation goals.
Preparing the Army for Stability Operationsby Derek Eaton Amy Richardson Thomas S. Szayna
Much activity is being aimed at revising the approach to planning and implementing Stabilization, Security, Transition, and Reconstruction (SSTR) operations. The changes are meant to ensure a common U.S. strategy rather than a collection of individual departmental and agency efforts and on involving all available government assets in the effort.

This monograph highlights key factors in South Asia imperiling U.S. interests, and suggests how and where the U.S. military might play an expanded, influential role. It suggests seven steps the military might take to better advance and defend U.S. interests in South Asia, the Middle East, and Asia at large. Washington should intensify involvement in South Asia and become more influential with the governments there. Given the area's potential for violence, it should also shape part of the U.S. military to meet potential crises.

Operated by the nationally-renowned Schiller Del Grande Restaurant Group of Cafe Annie fame, each restaurant offers a unique dining experience, whether for the casual eater or gourmet foodie.
New! Happy Hour featuring delicious light bites and drinks at The Grove. Check thegrovehouston.com for details.
The Lake House
The Lake House is a family-friendly fast casual concept located on the south shore of Kinder Lake in Discovery Green. Since its opening in April 2008, the cafe has captured hearts and palates with some of the best burgers in Houston, made to order tacos and fresh guacamole, a variety of Texas hot dogs, delectable grilled chicken, signature salads and drinks, all with healthy doses of flavor, style and all-American nostalgia.
Whether you choose to sit inside the 40-seat, all-glass, wood, and steel contemporary building, on one of the tables dotting the lakeside deck and shaded veranda, or picnic in the park, The Lake House offers something for every park visitor!
The Grove
The Grove restaurant offers an exciting urban dining experience unlike anything else in downtown Houston. Ideally located on the south end of Discovery Green near the Brown Foundation Promenade, this refined-dining establishment offers a one-of-a-kind setting for gatherings of all sizes and types. The Grove is the definitive see-and-be-seen culinary hotspot in Houston's urban core and has redefined downtown dining since opening in January 2008.
Schiller Del Grande partner and world renowned Chef Robert Del Grande, with Chef De Cuisine Ryan Williams, has crafted an exquisite menu of modern Texas cuisine featuring a range of tantalizing appetizers, salads, seafood, rotisserie specialties, steaks, sandwiches and decadent deserts. The cuisine alone is worth a trip downtown, and coupled with the warm aesthetic glow of the restaurant's interior, "this place is poised, quite literally, to hit it out of the park," as Houston Modern Luxury magazine rightly summed up in its review.
The 10,000 square-foot restaurant designed by architect Larry Speck, former Dean of Architecture at The University of Texas at Austin, with interiors by SDG Partner Candice Schiller, seamlessly blends into the natural pleasures of the surrounding urban park. The Grove's earthy elegance and cosmopolitan sophistication turned out to be a winning combination indeed, as the building and its environs continue to wow architectural experts and casual admirers alike. With its deference to climate, culture and landscape, The Grove is an attraction in and of itself.
The restaurant also happens to be among the most eco-friendly places in all of Houston. Not only is The Grove home to its very own rooftop herb and tomato garden, but it also uses eco-friendly materials made from corn, sugarcane or coconut fiber; recycles all paper, plastics, and cardboard within its walls. Furthermore, the cuisine itself reflects a commitment to locality and sustainability, utilizing a variety of Texas farms, cheese makers and Gulf Coast fisheries!

PALMISTRY Diploma course
In this 3 part course you will learn that palmistry is the art of characterization and foretelling the future through the study of the palm, also known as palm–reading or hand analysis. The practice is found all over the world, with numerous cultural variations.
A palm reader usually begins by reading the persons 'dominant hand' (the hand he/she writes with or uses the most). In some traditions of palmistry the other hand is believed to carry past-life or karmic information, as well as hereditary traits. Once lines form on the palm they remain there and new lines are created as a person experiences life. If you imagine that we all possess different energies the palm shows us the way they flow. So, for example, you could be a very creative person but doing a rather monotonous job. You are bored and fed up because you are not in tune with your true nature. However, things will change for you once you tap into your creative side.
There is no right or wrong answer but palmistry helps guide you into things that will make you happy and contented. The palm gives us a map of our life and it is up to us to make the most of it. Through self-awareness we can shape our fate and affect our future.
If you want to amaze your friends, family and customers with your accurate readings and are serious about becoming a professional palm reader then this course is a must for you.

C9::GoingNative Live: Kate Gregory and Steve Teixeira - Modern C++, AMP, Casablanca, C++ RenaissanceJul 03, 2012 at 4:43PM
From my point of view, there are now two main reasons left that keep me from "going native" with my software (Herb Sutter is right on with this):
1. Components. .NET is, as Juval Lowy likes to say, the "component-oriented framework" that superseded COM. In C++, today, there would be a huge barrier to cross (at least that's the impression I get) if I wanted to support third-party extensions (and I *have* to).
2. Libraries. The asynchrony/concurrency work from MS is fantastic, but more often I need to do "basic" - and standardized! - things like XML, JSON, HTTP, TCP/IP, etc. (Oh, and C++ XAML would be nice to have on Win7 as well. )
For those of us who are in a situation like this, what would you recommend? Keep working in .NET (or Ruby, or whatever) for another year or two and start (re-)learning C++ on the side? Or try to make the switch now? If the latter, then could you provide some guidance for how to deal with these issues? Maybe create a "living" document that provides C++ equivalents/recommendations for each of the classes available in the .NET Framework? That would be a great MVP-esque contribution

Meetings' Minutes
The following were present:
all being members of the corporation and a quorum.
The acting secretary of the corporation was not present at the meeting and the Minutes of the Annual Meeting of the Members of Woodfield Downs Homeowners� Association, Inc. of October 16, 2001, were not read. The minutes will be read for approval at the Annual Meeting of the Members in 2003.
The Social Committee reported that the Fall festival with hay ride had been successful. Proposed activities for 2003 are an adult night out in January and an Easter egg hunt April.
The Chairman of the Architectural Control Committee was not present, so a report of the Architectural Control Committee was not made.
The treasurer stated that the check book balance to date was $8,401.57. The treasurer reported that all bills to date are current and all line items of the 2002 Budget appear to be on track. The treasurer rendered to the meeting a copy of the 2003 annual budget. The document was passed around for review.
Because there were no minutes available from the last meeting to review, old business was not discussed.
There was discussion concerning the condition of the streets and whether or not the homeowners� association is doing anything regarding resurfacing. It was noted that the streets are owned and maintained by St. Joseph County and that any concerns regarding repair should be directed to the County Engineer. Debbie Palkowitch stated she had previous talked to the County Engineer and he stated it would be several years before we could expect to see any resurfacing done in Woodfield Downs. Julie Schreiber volunteered to circulate a petition to get the streets (or at least some portions that are in serious disrepair) resurfaced. The petition will be directed to our County Commissioner, Cindy Bodle, and the County Engineer.
Construction traffic through the subdivision was discussed. It was stated again that the roads are County roads and Woodfield Downs has no jurisdiction over any activity on the roads. County roads are for anyone�s use. Brad McKinley stated he had contacted the County Engineer�s office three times to request a sign near the front entrance redirecting construction traffic to the designated construction entrance for Covington Shores off State Road 23. The Engineering Department stated they would look into the matter; however, a sign would not make the redirection of traffic mandatory, and construction traffic may continue to flow through the subdivision.
There was a question as to who is responsible for the maintenance of curbs. It was noted the curbs, too, are owned and maintained by St. Joseph County. There was concern that the snow plows hit the curbs and crack them. It was stated snow plowing is also provided by St. Joseph County, and they should be responsible for any curbs they crack. It was suggested that if there are any problems with the curbs homeowners contact the County Engineering department and advise them of such.
Pam Hahaj reported that she has made every attempt to report any burned out and/or broken street lights that she is aware of. It was made known that the lights are owned and maintained by AEP and the homeowners� association has a continually renewing agreement for maintenance and service of the lights. Pam reported that AEP has expressed that replacement of burned out bulbs is not a priority and the work gets scheduled to be done when they can. It was suggested that she contact one of the homeowners in Woodfield Downs that works for AEP to see what he can do about getting out street lights repaired in a more timely fashion.
There was a question as to what is being done about boats that are left parked in the street and why the homeowners� association is not doing anything to get that problem taken care of. Although there have been many complaints about boats parked in the streets, in particular to the safety hazard it poses, it was stated again that the homeowners� association has no jurisdiction over vehicles being parked on the street. It was stated that there may perhaps be some County ordinance as to how long vehicles can be parked on a County road. Additionally, there may be some recourse through the County if the parked vehicle poses a safety hazard. The County will be contacted and made aware of the situation. Homeowner�s were encouraged to contact the County if they are aware of any vehicles that pose a safety hazard.
The homeowners� association does, however, have jurisdiction over boats, recreational vehicles, etc. parked anywhere on the lot, including the driveway. The paragraph in the Restrictions/Covenants concerning this was read, and it was stated that the homeowners� association has made every attempt to notify homeowners that are not in compliance to remedy the situation. It was expressed that enforcement of this restriction continue, as it is unfair to those homeowners that do comply.
A homeowner questioned if the association puts out a newsletter, and if so, can something be said to remind people to slow down while driving in the subdivision. Although there has not been a newsletter in over a year, it is the intention of the board to circulate a newsletter at least biannually. A note concerning speed will be included in the next newsletter.
There was comment concerning the person(s) who drive over the grass in the front entrance. It was noted the board has discussed several options of how to curtail this destructive action, including but not limited to boulders, trees, spikes, gravel, street lights, and even security cameras. The costs for all these items has been investigated and the board has not made a decision on which action, if any, to take. The placement of objects as an obstruction will entail additional work to maintain and sprinkle the lawn in that area. Other actions could pose liability problems.
Marsha Defreuw commented that the upkeep and maintenance of the common ground areas, in particular, the front entrance, is very good. Several homeowners agreed. There was a question concerning if the board entertains bids for this service. The treasurer reported that the current contractor provides a bid each year, of which the board makes a decision to accept or reject the bid. It was reported that for the first several years, numerous contractors were hired for the landscaping work, and it was never done satisfactorily and there had been several complaints about the condition of the common areas. Since our current contractor, Done By Me, has been providing the service, the common areas have been maintained excellently, and there have been numerous good comments about the common areas. Since the current contractor�s bid had always been reasonable and since the quality of work is good, the board has not actively solicited bids for the landscaping. It has been the position of the board that in the case of the landscaping, the lowest bid is not always the best bid. Since the upkeep and maintenance of the common areas has a direct affect on the value of the homes in the subdivision, the consensus has been that good maintenance of the common areas is a priority.
The West Nile Virus was briefly discussed. Tom Templin stated that board has considered the option of contractor mosquito spraying in the neighborhood if it became necessary. It was stated that this service should be provided by the County if there was a health hazard, and at this time the board should not take any action to spray. It was further noted that mosquitos were negligible this summer, probably because the subdivision does not have standing water problems and because the horse stable was removed.
It was questioned if there has been any reports of vandalism in the neighborhood. It was noted by one homeowner that his dog had recently been shot.
A homeowner questioned if there are any plans for having the front entrance sign repaired or replaced. It was reported that currently the sign does not need repair; however, the board is aware of its deteriorating condition. Reserves are being accumulated each year to cover the cost of replacement of the sign when necessary. The reserves are being accumulated, so a special assessment will not have to be imposed when the sign needs to be replaced.
It was noted that sometime in the future the Granger area will probably have municipal water, and perhaps sewer and septic. If, in the future, these utilities in fact hook up to Granger, the subdivision may not have the need for the retention basin. If that time were to come, the association would have several options of what to do with that land, including but not limited to, subdividing the land for homes, a playground/ park, or pool with community building.
The President proceeded to the matter of the election of six new members to the Board of Directors to hold office for a term of two years and until their successors shall be elected and shall qualify. The following persons were duly nominated:
No further nominations being made, the nominations were closed. The President moved the six above persons be elected to the Board of Directors. Upon motion duly made, seconded, and carried it was
RESOLVED, the six members listed be elected to the Board of Directors.
There being no further business, upon motion, duly made, seconded and carried, the meeting was adjourned.
Dated: October 23, 2002.
Sharon I. Busenbark, acting for Secretary
The following were present:
all being members of the corporation and a quorum.
The Minutes of the Annual Meeting of the Members of Woodfield Downs Homeowner's Assoction, Inc. of October 12, 2000, were read aloud. It was moved the minutes, as read, be adopted and ordered on file in the corporate record book. Upon motion duly made, seconded, and carried it was
RESOLVED the minutes as read be adopted and filed in the corporate record book.
The Architectural Control Committee reported that there are no new problems with any of the requests for approval. It was questioned if there were any concerns with fences and sheds, and it was reported that there were none.
No one was present from the Social Committee to give a report.
The treasurer stated that the check book balance to date was $7,605.56. The treasurer rendered to the meeting a copy of the 2002 annual budget. The document was reviewed and discussed. It was noted that the Legal expense had been increased this year (typically just the interest earned each year is applied to this account) due to an increase in some homeowners not complying with the storage of boats on the lots. It is anticipated that there will be legal expenses with having to enforce this restriction.
At last year�s meeting there were some complaints about trash flying around the neighborhood due to recycling. Since then, Phil Gadson, has invented a device called an �Expand-a-Bin�, which attached to the current bins supplied in our neighborhood. These increase the size of the recycling bin approximately 2.5 times. It was asked if these could be purchased by the homeowners association for each homeowner. This item was tabled for further investigation and discussion.
The President proceeded to the matter of the election of five new members to the Board of Directors to hold office for a term of two years and until their successors shall be elected and shall qualify. The following persons were duly nominated:
No further nominations being made, the nominations were closed. The President moved the five above persons be elected to the Board of Directors. Upon motion duly made, seconded, and carried it was
RESOLVED, the five members listed be elected to the Board of Directors.
There being no further business, upon motion, duly made, seconded and carried, the meeting was adjourned.
Dated: November 13, 2001.
Sharon I. Busenbark, Secretary
The following Directors were present:
all being Directors of the Corporation and a quorum. The president called the meeting to order.
The secretary presented to the meeting the Minutes of the Annual Meeting of the Board of Directors of Woodfield Downs Homeowner's Assoction, Inc. of October 8, 1998. The secretary read the minutes of the meeting aloud and moved the minutes as read, be adopted and ordered on file in the corporate record book. Upon motion duly made, seconded, and carried it was
RESOLVED the minutes as read be adopted and filed in the corporate record book.
The treasurer reported to the meeting that all bills had been paid and all dues had been collected. The checkbook balance was $9,142.83. The treasurer reported that during the year there had been some difficulties collecting delinquent dues. Steve Hahaj had volunteered to handled contacting any members with delinquent dues in the future. Non-fixed expenses were discussed and some quotes will be secured prior to the next meeting for incorporation into the 2000 budget.
A social events coordinator was not present to report on any planned upcoming events. Barb Zimmer noted that Charlotte Defebaugh had stated she was planning to hold the annual ice cream social in mid to late August.
The Architectural Control Committee had nothing new to report.
Violations to the Restrictions/Covenants were discussed. Due to many complaints about the several boats in the neighborhood and the possible problem of non-compliance a procedure was discussed and established for handling violations. Upon motion duly made, seconded, and carried it was
RESOLVED, that two weeks after the initial violation letter is mailed, if the homeowner is not in compliance, a second letter would be sent via registered mail with a return receipt. If after another two weeks the homeowner is not in compliance, our attorney would be called for consultation and action.
The front entrance sign was discussed. Jim Labuzienski noted the sign looked weathered and in possible need of repair. It was determined the board members would observe the sign and report to Jim with their opinions on the condition of the sign and action, if any, to be taken, e.g. get quotes for immediate replacement, budget for replacement over a specified time frame, etc. Jim will get a quote for sign replacement and for re-attaching the bricks that have fallen off. Jim will also finalize repair to the front entrance sign light.
There was some discussion about members of the corporation having use of the portable sign placed in the front island for their personal use. Perhaps a charge could be imposed. It was noted that income to the association would cause problems on the tax return, and if this did become an option for homeowners, any funds received should remain separate from the corporation. Further discussion of this item was tabled until the next meeting.
It was noted that the horse farm at the entrance appears to be overgrown. It was stated there is nothing the corporation could do concerning this.
It was noted that Carey Drury will soon be moving from the neighborhood. Dave Behrens will take over Carey's presidential responsibilities. Steve Hahaj will handle complaints or repairs to the street lights.
Due to the numerous amont of new homeowners in the neighborhood it was suggested the directory be updated again this year. It was determined this would be done in October after the Annual Meeting of the Members.
The next board meeting was scheduled for September 14, 1999, and the Annual Meeting of the Members was scheduled for October 14, 1999. Sharon Busenbark will secure a meeting room at Harris-Prairie Church of Christ for the annual meetings.
There being no further business before the meeting, upon motion, duly made, seconded, and carried, the meeting adjourned.
Dated: August 24, 1999.

Companies providing stability testing services generally offer a range of related services. NewLab Bioquality's pharmaceutical-development assistance includes cell line characterization, molecular biology, protein chemistry, and viral process validation in addition to stability testing of intermediates, actives, and formulated products. As a product matures through its life cycle, so does the sophistication of stability testing. Bioprocessors enjoy significant leeway early in development to apply tests they think make sense, particularly those that provide feedback on process optimization. Testing becomes more formalized as a product enters human testing. "ICH guidelines call for stability studies, at least of the accelerated variety, before Phase I," says Guy Berg, Ph.D., svp at NewLab. "There are check-off lists of tests to conduct depending on the clinical phase and molecule." Erythropoietin, for example, is tested for appearance, pH, peptide sequence, types and extent of post-translational modifications, aggregation, and potency. Many more assays are possible and would surely yield more information, "but at some point, one must limit the number of tests for no reason other than cost," observes Dr. Berg.Similarly, Pharmaceutical Product Development (PPD) performs stability testing, methods development, validation, and QC release in more than 60,000 cubic feet of controlled-environment space. Large, walk-in units maintain standard ICH temperature and humidity conditions, while reach-in units can duplicate any reasonable condition that might affect stability like photodegradation at variable temperature. A central computer system controls condition monitoring for all stability chambers, which are protected from power grid failures by backup electrical generators. Larger walk-in chambers employ redundant monitoring. Early in a drug's development, samples will be subjected to their most likely storage conditions, for example, frozen, refrigerated, or ambient temperature, notes Chris Lively, Ph.D., director of biopharmaceutical services. "We will also likely add challenge conditions such as higher temperature or humidity, which will indicate the conditions under which products are likely to degrade."

Denise Crosby, Granddaughter of Bing, Beams Down from Star Trek for Some New Enterprise
Not that she didn't ask for it. After 23 episodes of standing rigidly (if curvaceously) at attention, Crosby, 30, felt she could no longer hold her two-toned hairdo high. Beneath the communicator pinned to her left breast beat a heart bursting with emotions that she was never permitted to express. "I didn't want just to say, The frequency's open, sir,' for five years," Crosby says, explaining her decision to leave the hit series.
Barefoot in T-shirt and jeans, Crosby stands in stunning contrast to her 24th-century Wac character. On the steps of the West Hollywood duplex she shares with her husband of five years, rock video director Geoffrey Edwards, she hoots at an owl in a sycamore tree. "We're jamming," she explains.
Inside, the hoots turn to sighs as Crosby discusses the nude layout of her in the May issue of Playboy. The shots are reprinted from a 1979 Playboy pictorial in which a punked-out Denise, who is the illegitimate daughter of Bing Crosby's son Dennis, was displayed under a headline labeling her "a different kind of Crosby." She says she was not told the pictures would be reprinted. "It's a bit exploitative of Playboy to do that, I suppose. But I'm not bitter about it."
Ironically, those same photographs had been Crosby's introduction to her husband. "My girlfriend at the time also had very short hair," Edwards, 29, recalls. "One day she said, 'Want to see what's really hip?' and showed me the Playboy pictures." The images made a lasting impression, presumably not for Crosby's coiffure alone. Months later, Edwards, by then unattached, was invited to dinner by a friend. His semiblind date for the evening (he had seen quite a bit of her, after all) was Crosby. The girl who walked off the Playboy pages turned out to be "statuesque and smart," he says.
"It was love at first sight," Crosby recalls. "I had one other blind date in my life, and it was a nightmare. I ended up puking in the guy's car. But Geoff had it—he turned me on. I was 20, he was 19, and we went for it. Four days later we were living together."
That chemistry led to the marriage, four years later, of two Hollywood bloodlines. Edwards is the son of director Blake Edwards and Patricia Walker, and both Geoff and Denise are close to Edwards and his second wife, Julie Andrews. Crosby also frequently sees her mother, Marilyn Scott, a retired accountant, and stepfather Dan Predovich, a Beverly Hills car salesman.
Such nice family scenes played no part in Crosby's early childhood. Denise Michelle Crosby was the subject of a bitter paternity suit that came to trial in 1960, when she was 3. "I remember going to court and it being packed with paparazzi," she says. Though Dennis was ordered to pay child support, that day in court was the only time Denise ever saw him. "It's very strange," she says quietly. "To have a child is a wonderful experience, and he unfortunately missed out."
Growing up comfortably in the middle class, Denise nonetheless saw herself as a rebel. "To this day, I'm probably the only person who was voted Homecoming Princess in 11th grade at Hollywood High and refused it," she says. She later enrolled in the drama department at Cabrillo College in Santa Cruz, but her academic career was cut short by an interview in the local paper. "They interviewed me because I was in a production at school and I was from this famous family," she says. "One of the drama teachers used the story to illustrate to the class that this crap is what Hollywood's all about, using people's names to get somewhere. I was very, very hurt by it. So I just checked out."
At 20, she began modeling, soon connecting with Playboy. It was, she admits, "some kind of rebellion on my part, some way of saying screw you to the family image."
Crosby never met her famous grandfather and didn't know any of his kin. But a chance encounter four years ago with Mary Crosby—one of Bing's three children by second wife Kathryn—led to friendship. "I'm really glad I met her," says Mary. "I think she's terrific."
That opinion is shared on the Star Trek set. "She was very well liked," says series creator Gene Roddenberry, who did not, however, try to convince her to stay by promising meatier parts. So she departed, without temper tantrums, tears—or, in fact, a firm job offer. But this fall Crosby will be seen co-starring with Mare Winningham and Anthony Edwards in a feature film, Miracle Mile, in which she plays a tough business executive. "I wouldn't have left the show if I didn't have a sense I could get another job," she says.
In her final moments aboard the Enterprise, Tasha appears as a hologram to impart her wisdom to her ever-orbiting pals. "I do a four-page monologue," Crosby says proudly. "Ironically, I had to die to get the show I wanted."

A frozen meal delivery diet with endorsement from Dancing With the Stars.Top Rated Diet Pills of 2016
Jennifer Lopez, Ricki Lake and Dancing with the Stars' Cheryl Burke and Chaz Bono are devoted fans of Freshology, a meal delivery program that brings fresh-frozen, low-calorie meals to your door weekly.
Gone are shelf-stable and powdered foods of competitive meal delivery brands. With Freshology, they prepare healthful portion-controlled meals, freeze, and ship. Your breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and desserts are covered for a week - all you do is heat and eat. They offer five different programs to suit your individual needs, but all meals are created to help you lose weight.
Here's how the service works: Select from one of six programs - FreshDining, FreshLite, FreshMommy, Freshology Gold, or GetSlim with the Stars - and then choose how frequently you want to receive meals. Each plan includes a breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack and dessert. You don't need to supplement with any other foods while eating on the Freshology diet.
You can expect to lose 1-3 pounds per week while adhering to the Freshology eating plan. Plan prices vary according to the selected program, how often you receive meals, and upgrades.
EDITOR'S TIP: Combine this supplement with a proven fat burner as Sletrokor for better results
- A convenient way to eat healthy
- May upgrade for organic foods or wild-caught fish
- Meals are portion-controlled
- Vegetables included in each meal
- No need to supplement with additional fresh food
- Not a long-term healthy-eating solution
- Does not teach you how to prepare your own healthy meals
- No fitness guidance
- Name/branding suggest fresh meals - they are frozen weeks in advance of shipping
- No cooking instructions provided
- No nutrition facts for meals provided
- No ingredients for meals provided
The Freshology service is a low-calorie, portion-controlled and low-glycemic eating plan. Daily calories range from 1200-1400 for women and 1800-2000 for men. Standard fare includes plenty of fresh vegetables and lean proteins. Every meal is created by Freshology's 5-Star chefs and there is a 60-day menu rotation so that you'll eat a variety of different meals. Upgrades for organic foods, wild-caught fish, and all-natural meals are also available.
While Freshology's brand name, as well as their marketing, imply that fresh meals are prepared and sent to you - that is not the case. The GetSlim With the Stars meals that we tried in January 2013 were frozen, similar to any other meal delivery diet we've tried. Our frozen meals were delivered the first week of January and labeled as prepared November 12, 2012, and December 1, 2, 3, 2012.
The packaging displays which meal an entree should be consumed for - breakfast, lunch, or dinner. There is no other information provided. It is very disconcerting that nutrition facts labels and ingredient labels are not included on each meal package, or within the shipment at the very least.
A sample day on Freshology would look like this:
Breakfast: Tomato Spinach Egg Stack
Lunch: Whole Wheat Penne with Eggplant and Sauteed Spinach
Dinner: Shrimp Jambalaya
Dessert: Mini Raspberry Cheesecake
While following Freshology you are advised to limit caffeine, alcohol and sugary or diet beverages and just rely on drinking water. A daily multivitamin and fish-oil supplement are also encouraged.EXERCISE
You should exercise at least three days a week while on the Freshology program, but there are no specific guidelines for a fitness regimen.CONCLUSION
If you want to eat and get trim like Hollywood's celebrities, then Freshology, a meal delivery program that features low-calorie, portion-controlled meals, is one way to accomplish slimming down after a pregnancy or dropping a few pounds for bikini season. A bevy stars endorse the program, including Katy Perry and Pink, as well as having a Dancing With the Stars-themed line of meals.
In comparison to competitive brands, Freshology doesn't live up to the promises of fresh foods, as they deliver the same pre-made frozen meals as everyone else. They also fall short of their competitors by exclusing nutrition facts and ingredient labels from their meal packaging and shipments. The long-term cost and its lack of instruction for teaching you how to prepare your own healthy meals are two main drawbacks. But the meals themselves are flavorful, feature seemingly quality ingredients, and can be satisfying if weight loss is your goal.Common Misspellings

User Feedback(Page 1 of 4, 64 total comments)
Absolutely terrible. Bland, they try to make up for the lack of flavor by adding huge amounts of salt. I would rather live on MRE's. Nothing fresh about this food. Avoid at all costs. Which by the way is ridiculously expensive for what you get.
Besides the food being god awful - their sales rep Dana was unprofessional - catty and tried to sell me mascara.
I've used there Silver program last year and lost 40lbs. Recently, I found myself in poor health and gained some weight due to meds and inactivity. I'm starting their Gold program. I loved them before and have no doubt it will be just as good this time. Also, they used to print nutritional labels, but now it is emailed. My customer service rep Dana is AMAZING!
Just did the edge for 1 month and it works! Food is good and price worked for me.
I really love Freshology. The only downside in my opinion is the price-it is pricey.
I have done several different programs over the years (FreshMommy, The Edge, GetSlim and the A la Carte options they used to have.) I've lost weight with all of them. The food is healthy, fresh and clean. I feel like Freshology helps to reset my eating habits. It gets me used to proper portion sizes and removes a lot of the over-processed foods I tend to gravitate towards. FreshMommy was very helpful in helping kick start my baby weight. I had tons of healthy food to support the calories needed for breastfeeding and working out.
I've also done DietsToGo-and while I did lose weight-I did not like it nearly as much as Freshology.
I just want some free information about the program.
Thus far the taste and texture of the food absolutely do not justify the cost (home delivery nationwide option). I have also used Diet To Go and would rate them far higher on taste and texture as well as menu flexibility.
I ordered 10 days (2 work weeks) of Freshology Silver, and overall I've been impressed with the quality and taste of the meals (and I'm a pretty picky eater!). I'm a week and a half in and have lost 6lbs with little effort and some cheating (a business breakfast, dinner with my husband, and of course weekends off).
Pro's: convenience (simply throw two packs in your bag and run out the door to work), taste, frozen entrees allow greater flexibility if you have to skip a meal, dessert
Con's: variety (I ordered the "no red meat" option, and my second week I received two of the same dinners I had the 1st week), no "ala carte" option, yogurt doesn't defrost well
Note: On the whole I'm a pretty healthy eater, am at a healthy weight, and I exercise at least 3 times a week
One month of eating the fresh dining plan helped me lose 14 pounds and really liked the food and service. I love the new menu items like frittata scrambled eggs and my favorite meals are the breakfasts. Lots of good assortments. Oh and the dinners, yes really good. Looking to loose 10 more this time!
The fresh dining is yum.
It works.
I lost 30 lbs on freshologys fresh program last year and it changed my whole life. I've been able to keep it off. The gold meals are my favorite and the best service. The variety is very good. Lots of assorted natural fruits-veggies and fresh fish and savory meats. Cooked the way I like it. My blood pressure is better and I learned portion control. I'm doing another 14 days for the new year. A refresher. I would recommend this to everyone who is serious about their health and good taste.
I forgot to add that for the last two weeks at least every other day the veggie was asparagus. The variety was poor. I like asparagus, but not so much. Portions were small, even the salads, one lunch must have had only 5 pieces of lettuce, a little more lettuce might have held me over longer during the day.
I tried them for 28 days, I found that they are not as flexible with dislikes as some of the other services. The food was spicy at times (Cayenne laced French Toast) and the flavor of the food tended to be more sour or savory than I like. I prefer the Zone type diet that has less fruit to spike my sugar levels. There are other out that that will customize to your tastes without costing you more.
freshology fresh meals are my go to for weight loss every May and January. When I need to drop 10 pounds fast with food that is better than what I eat at home, I order freshdining and gold when Im traveling. You lose weight without diet food, its real food.
I don't cook and shopping is blah. These meals really save my life. I am losing weight, my knees don't hurt anymore. I feel so much better. No, not cheap, but I found that nothing good in life is. You can eat healthy for less, but then you need to do it yourself. I could never do it so well. When I cook its a disaster. best! I loving the food and the service.
By the way, did I say before that all the meals have been delicious and they offer vegetarian options. However, I enjoy the steak, shrimp, chicken, salmon and pasta dinners... there are so many varieties.
The whole Idea of a bunch of fresh fruits and vegetables topped with a big hunk of animal carcas is a huge oxymoron. Any vegan knows that you dont need one bit of animal to be healthy; you dont have to murder anything, and you dont have to take away milk from baby calves either. Become a conscious eater and consumer and the world would be a better place without all the hype about diets.
The food is fresh and arrives in high tech packaging that keeps it cold. The meals came color coded and the menus sent online with my welcome packet. This is round 3 on FreshDing. It works. Tonights dinner was a juicy lean steak, grilled broccolini and mixed winter squash. I had a chocolate flour less cake for dessert. Love!
food is neither fresh nor tasty, nor even that healthy. just a good way to manage your calories and portions, but that isnt enough to justify the price.

HONOLULU (AP) - State health officials have been supervising disinfection measures at a Waikiki hotel after about 100 guests and workers became sick from norovirus.
The Royal Hawaiian Hotel apologized for the illnesses, said spokeswoman Stephanie Dowling. Those affected received medical attention, she said. One guest required hospitalization, but it's not clear if this was because of the virus, she said.
Health officials confirmed that people fell ill due to norovirus. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, norovirus causes inflammation of the stomach, intestines or both, leading to stomach pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
The kitchen was closed last week as a precautionary measure to halt any potential spread, the state epidemiologist, Dr. Sarah Park, said.
Park said that the illness lasts from 48 to 72 hours, and the closure of the kitchen allowed for enough time for food service staff to recuperate if they were ill. She said those involved in food service should stay home if they feel ill.

In Brief: Meeting today to look at anti-violence efforts
Meeting today to look at anti-violence efforts
Community activist Sonya Arrington has organized a Community Call to Action meeting today to discuss anti-violence measures in Erie.
The public meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Center, 312 Chestnut St.
Today's meeting will focus on how community ministers can embrace a more active role in combating Erie violence, Arrington said.
Waterford man pleads in child porn case
A Waterford man pleaded guilty as charged Monday in U.S. District Court to allegations that he possessed child pornography between August 2009 and August 2011.
Joshua M. Falk, 22, of the 600 block of East Street, entered the plea to one felony count of child pornography possession before U.S. District Judge David S. Cercone.
The government said Falk possessed computer images and movies depicting children engaged in sexually explicit conduct.
Falk faces sentencing on June 9. He was indicted in December 2011.
All charges dropped in July shooting
The prosecution has dismissed the case against a man accused of firing a gun at his ex-wife during an argument in July.
Allen M. Hanner Jr., 26, of the 1100 block of East 27th Street, had faced charges of attempted homicide, aggravated assault, criminal conspiracy, simple assault and a weapons violation.
First Assistant District Attorney Elizabeth Hirz said in the motion to dismiss the case that the victim has indicated that she does not wish to proceed with the prosecution. President Judge Ernest J. DiSantis Jr. granted the motion to dismiss the case.
The incident happened inside Hanner's home on July 20, police said.
Residents evacuated after structure damaged
Two families were forced to evacuate their west Erie apartment building Tuesday night due to building structural damage, authorities said.
Fire crews were called to the two-story apartment house at 449 Huron Street at about 7:30 p.m. on a report of a partial structural collapse.
Authorities determined there was no collapse. A construction crew working earlier in the day inside the building used jacks to raise the foundation to make foundation repairs, Erie Deputy Fire Chief Marty Heid said.

I would count the 14 hours as IF, yes. I do 16 hours and that is probably close enough.
Can you eat more eggs and possibly buy some sort of fat supplement (I use FA3 and Flameout from biotest) that you can keep in your room? It might be a bit pricey for a college student, but you would at least feel better about the amount of fat you are getting.

My son was using my Xbox 360 primarily. I got a Netflix account. Then, last week I got a Gold Membership. I cannot get my Gold Membership to work. I have input my email address, user name, and password in about 100 times. Each time, I get a pop up stating that I'm using an account that is already in use (YEAH, IT'S MINE).. This is all happening while I'm in MY Xbox.com account.
I created a brand new profile, typed exactly how my xbox.com account shows it. I then deleted my old profile, as well as my son's to see if that would solve anything, but, not so far.
I'm so confused I dont even know if this is making sense.
Bottom line. I can't get into Netflix becasue I cant switch/download a profile. All my profile information is correct on the machine and my xbox.com account.
How I can I use MY Account? anybody have any clue's? I'll type up step by step tomorrow, with the pop-ups. I'm mentally fired right now.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Think I cracked it! I searched for 80151011. Cleared Cache & my profile and rebooted. Hit DOWNLOAD PROFILE and it brought mine up FINALLY.
Opened NETFLIX, and...it worked!
Son ALA, YOU THE MAN!
A few questions.1.Did you wish to keep your original account and turn that into gold or did you want to create a brand new account and turn that into gold?2.This gold membership you bought, is this a redemption code card that you bought at gamestop or at any retail store?I'm gonna toss out a bit of info so that could help you out with your issue and probably help you out with any future issue too...and some things you might already know.First things first. Your account on the XBOX and XBOX.com are one in the same.Lets pretend your gamertag is XBOXFAN and when you created this account, you used the email email@example.com with a password of 123456That will now be your Microsoft account and it will be universal between all MS products. (this used to be known as your MS passport I.D)Let's say you wanted to create a 2nd/brand new gamertag. While creating this new account, you would not be able to use the email address firstname.lastname@example.com because that email is already tied to a different account. Each new gamertag you create will also require a unique email address.Now lets go into your current gamertags on the console. Right now, are there any gamertags available right now? You said you deleted yours and your son's.The first thing you will want to do is recover your original gamertag. follow this link for a step by step guide on how to recover your existing gamertag to your console.
http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-360/settings-and-initial-setup/profile-move-deletewhen following those steps, you will enter the gamertag you created, the email address you tied to it and the password you used when you created the account. (not your password that you used when accessing your email...unless they are one in the same, if so, you should change them both eventually)Also, for whatever reasons, never post your email address or password you have tied to your gamertag and never give it out to anyone.So you recovered your first tag. If you also had a 2nd tag that worked, you can also recover that one too. Now to redeem your code. The important thing is to log into the account you wish to upgrade to gold while on the xbox console.When you are at the dashboard, while signed into XBL, press the guide (silver button on the controller)Press left once and at the bottom of that page you will see an option to redeem code.Select that and a giant key pad should appear. This is where you will enter the code that you bought from the store.Once you have entered the code, you will receive a message that says something along the lines of. "This code is for 3, 6 or 12 months of xbox live" (depending on which card you bought) Select ok to redeem and it will say "congratulations on redeeming your code"You might have to sign out and sign back into XBL in order for the gold to take its course.
If a post is helpful, Please verify and rate it.

Thanks for the awesome response. I'll try to figure this out.
1. I intended on keeping my original account. Each time I tried to log in or use it, the Xbox said it was already in user, under my personal email account. I honestly cannot explain it, because I don't know what it's "seeing". Make sense? In other words, it's telling me I have an account under my email address. But when I use my username, it tells me it's under another name. I dont have another username. It's always been SLEPE67. Profile HAS changed, but I have never used my stuff online. My son has, but under HIS email and username, with store bought memberships.
2. The Gold Membership I purchased was purchased in here.
My brain is mush. I'll re-read your reply a few times and try your instructions and let you know how they helped. Thanks once again!
yeah, just keep posting here and i'll keep checking back.So slepe67 is your gamertag and your son has his own gamertag too correct?When you log onto this web site, does it automatically load up with your user account signed in or does it ask you to enter you email and password each time?If you are entering your email and password each time and then being logged in as Slepe67, everything should be fine when you follow the steps to recovering your profile in that link.Another question. Did you happen to have a account on your xbox that was never connected to xbox live with the name Slepe67?
that could have been a problem there.Lets say you had your xbox, created a profile and used it without ever having it connected to the internet.Then while on the computer, you create an online profile on this site, with the same exact name.If you went back to the console and tried to recover that account you just created on the PC, nothing would happen since there is still an offline account with that same gamertag.Heck, the same thing would happen If you created a gamertag while not connected to the internet and then tried to make an XBL account while using that same exact name.The console would not let you create 2 different profiles with the same exact gamertag...and I remember 9 years ago when my cousin and I got our XBOX 360 something like this happened.We went to my cousin's and we played for a bit.He created an account offline and a few weeks later when he got his broadband set up in his new place, there was no way to convert his profile that was created offline. He had to delete the offline gamertag, kept his save file, created the online associated gamertag under the same exact name. He was able to use his save files but none of the achievements were going to carry over.
When you log onto this web site, does it automatically load up with your user account signed in or does it ask you to enter you email and password each time?
Another question. Did you happen to have a account on your xbox that was never connected to xbox live with the name Slepe67?
I had an OFFLINE profile I used "Dirt" Never went online with it. Again, dont recall if I tried to. I deleted my "Dirt" (offline) profile and my son's profile. He's got his own machine now. The only profile on there is SLEPE67.
AS IT STANDS: when I fire up the XBOX & go to NETFLIX, it immediately taks me to "Upgrade to Xbox LIVE Gold". Bottom right, there are 2 boxes. One says UPGRADE TO GOLD (which I cannot click on), the other says SWITCH PROFILES. When I click that, the SIGN IN Box opens. My options are CREATE PROFILE & DOWNLOAD PROFILE.
CREATE PROFILE is what is is. I dont want to do that, right? When I click DOWNLOAD PROFILE, it takes me to the screen where I input my Microsoft Account with email address & password. (NOTE: my controller keypad quit working, typing with the conrtoller sucks after about 5 attempts) I loads for about 5 seconds and I get " HI SLEPE 67! Downloading your profile." It thinks again and then I get a pop up that shows "Sorry, Xbox LIVE profiles can't be downloaded tight now. Try again later. 80151011." I cannot find that code.
Each and every time try to download my profile, I get the exact same message.
Should i just wipe my machine clean and start over? IF so, got a link on how to do that?
THANKS AGAIN for all your help! I'm 40 & pulling my hair out! My son could figure this out in a heartbeat, but I'm stubborn & dont want to ask for help. :)
Ha ha, thanks. sorry i missed your last post since I normally check the forums earl on in the day.
I'm glad everything worked out.
