-Dr. Frank-N-Furter
Agreed with the rest about fat/carbs...
I never experienced carb flu (didnt even know I was supposed to until a couple weeks in). I completely embraced fat right from the start. I'm learning that fat is really key to this whole thing. Man were we off with the whole low-fat thing!
Holy crap! Apparently, I'm not missing something! I've lost 9lbs since starting this (Day 1 was on June 3rd)
And I'm not finding that I have to starve myself, and I'm allowing myself the occasional treat (but it's been well planned for and in very moderation..ie: a wine dinner that I had no choice in the menu...first 2 courses were pretty primal until the dessert. Allowed myself a little bit of it, the berries and the small scoop of ice cream and a taste of the pastry)
This is _awesome_
The first few weeks, allowed myself a little carb indulgence like you did with your dessert. It helped me transition. I never made a conscious step to not eat those desserts or force myself to stop, but you will be amazed how your appetite changes after a few months! Now grain products do not taste so good and some berries is all the sugar I can handle - everything else is way too sweet!
Keep up the awesome work and grok on!
Well, I allowed the ones I've had..they were definitely planned for in advance...it was a wine dinner complete with pairings, so there's an experience part there involved with it. Other than that, I've made a conscious effort to turn down all desserts...other than this, and one other, there haven't really been any other carb indulgences. Even with those, I've still kept it under 100g/day as well.
In some ways, I'm kind of there with fruit, ie: I've hated bananas all my life because they are just too sweet. I'm very picky when it comes to fruit (except fruit in wine form!)...though if it's a sour fruit, I might have a weakness
I'm just...shocked. Almost a bit concerned that the weight loss has been this much so quickly though.
One thing I learned about milk/cheese/dairy.. It is fat by nature, and anything that says "Low-Fat" should be read "Chemical shit storm"
Proud Bangmaid since August 2009
I'm no expert (closing in on my first week of being Primal) but one of the parts I love about it is "NOT" counting...anything. I don't count carbs so I know if it's a good week or bad - I just stick to the food list. If it's a primal food, I'll eat it, and if it's not, I won't. I totally get what Mark says about "cows milk is for baby cows" and "fruit was a luxury for Grok, not a staple" but I guess, at least starting, I figure I'm way better off having lots of bananas, apples, and Vit D milk then ice cream, breads, pastas, etc. I know it's probably not "optimal" and my weight hasn't fallen off like a rock just yet, but it's getting me through the loss of pasta and junk food, at lesat for now. I know that was one of the problems I had with other "diets" was the counting...how many ounzes of this, how many of these make up that, etc...was one of the reasons I stopped doing the Crossfit espoused Zone diet. Might be lazy, but one of the whole tenants (I think) of this Primal thing is it's supposed to be simple.
Anyway, good luck on your journey! I'm hopeful that I can see some success with this lifestyle, and convince my exwife to employ it for herself and the kids. But it's hard to share it with others until I can display the benefits myself! :-)

"Strong people are harder to kill than weak people and more useful in general." - Mark Rippetoe
I'm still counting (im on day 8) i use fitday.com every day, sometimes just because i dont know exactly how many carbs are in what foods. . i bet i could easily get 150g of carbs a day from veggies+fruit! I figure fitday is my training wheels, once i learn i can take them off and wont have to worry about falling
I starting with using fitday just so I could get an idea of what was what...but overall I found it very easy to go Primal... a number of my cofriends kept telling me how I would fail because of how much I 'love' pizza and ice cream...but I haven't really craved them since making the switch... ... a friend of mine who has also made the switch (following me after about a month in) has also found it very easy... ...
I didn't suffer from low carb flu or anything and I only had a week or so of cravings, but I'm pretty sure that was stress related...
Keep up the good work! Glad to have you as part of the ever growing Primal community!

Insider: Award Impacts Rays, Hellickson's Future
On Monday afternoon, Jeremy Hellickson was named the 2011 American League rookie of the year. The right-hander went 13-10, making 29 starts in his first full major-league season. There have been debates about whether his 2.95 ERA is a sign true talent level or a byproduct of good luck since he produced average peripherals with a high number of balls in play converted into outs.
The potential for statistical regression in conjunction with the potential for progression as a young pitcher will make Hellickson's future production a topic for further debate. That said, most can agree the results which produced the hardware and accolades that come with winning the rookie of the year award will certainly impact Hellickson's future earning potential and value to the Tampa Bay Rays.
Projected production is important when calculating a player?s true value, but awards and things of that nature - while subjective - still hold?weight in negotiations. With a plaque saying he was the best rookie in his class, Jeremy Hellickson picked up a valuable chip to play the time comes for a contract extension or arbitration. And while fans, teams, and players should celebrate these achievements - for a club like the Rays - each award handed out has the potential to stretch what is already a very thin operating budget.
Worrying about future salary obligations is never fun for a fan base; however, it is almost a necessity for followers of the Rays. The good news is Jeremy Hellickson's current service time puts him roughly two full seasons away from arbitration eligibility. This means his salary for the 2012 and 2013 seasons will be less than $1 million combined.
Some point between now and then the Rays will likely approach Hellickson about an extension - if they have not already. Meanwhile, Andrew Friedman recently said that a contract extension not only has to make sense for the organization, but the player be open to a deal as well. Because of the potential dollars gained by winning this award, Hellickson's price tag for an extension may have increased, knowing he can use the success the 2011 season in a possible arbitration battle if an extension is not reached.
Another unfortunate reality of being a Rays' fan is projecting how much a player's value to this team measures against his value to another. Without an extension - or even with one - there will be a time where Hellickson's value to Tampa Bay will be evaluated much like Matt Garza, James Shields - and perhaps soon - David Price. With pitching being the continued focus of the organization, there will be a time where a younger, cheaper, and more controllable player is ready to take Hellickson?s spot; similar to how he was ready to step in for Garza in 2011.
In addition to future earnings, awards also change perception and impact trade value as well. Prior to the 2008 season, the Rays received an attractive package for Delmon Young based on the perception that he was still a top prospect more than his production to date. In 2009, the team received three prospects in exchange for two-time, all-star Scott Kazmir whose career was in a downward spiral. If Hellickson progresses as expected, the title of 2011 rookie of the year only helps Tampa Bay in negotiations.
When anybody in the Rays' organization is rewarded for?a job well done?we should take the time to recognize their accomplishment. At the same time, when it comes to performance-based awards, we should also recognize the financial implications; especially for players. For now, we congratulate Jeremy Hellickson on his award-winning season; however, we must wonder what impact it has on the future.

Japan raised the crisis level at its crippled nuclear plant Tuesday to a level severity on par with the 1986 Chernobyl disaster.
The government cited high overall radiation leaks that have contaminated the air, tap water, vegetables and seawater.
Japanese nuclear regulators said they raised the rating from 5 to 7 - the highest level on an international scale of nuclear accidents overseen by the International Atomic Energy Agency - after new assessments of radiation leaks from the Fukushima Dai-ichi plant since it was disabled by the March 11 tsunami.
The move signifies a "major accident" with widespread effects on the environment and health. But Japanese officials are downplaying the health concerns.
They say leaks from the plant so far amount to only a tenth of the radiation released in the Chernobyl disaster.
"This reconfirms that this is an extremely major disaster. We are very sorry to the public, people living near the nuclear complex and the international community for causing such a serious accident," Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano said.
But Edano told reporters there was no "direct health damage" from the crisis so far. "The accident itself is really serious, but we have set our priority so as not to cause health damage," he said.
Hironobu Unesaki, a nuclear physicist at Kyoto University Research Reactor Institute, said the revision was not a cause for worry, that it had to do with the overall release of radiation and was not directly linked to health dangers.
He said most of the radiation was released early in the crisis and that the reactors still have mostly intact containment vessels surrounding their nuclear cores.

In Reply.—Hebert and his associates have made useful suggestions, such as performing several additional series of control studies. Surprisingly, however, they neglected to mention a number of other controls to ascertain the possible effects of anesthesia and mechanical ventilation and point out the species difference between pigs and man.
Hebert and his coauthors took issue with several of the speculations made in our study. The possible interaction of PMIs with the AM phagocytic function was discussed in the last two paragraphs of our article, which began with "Finally, we suspect...." This is obviously only a working hypothesis that may be useful for future studies. Furthermore, our statements were misrepresented. We did not argue that the reduced phagocytic activity was the "result" of a decreased percentage of AMs. In fact, we suggested that the influx of PMLs into the atelectatic segment may play a role in the observed development of

An attorney says a New Mexico jail guard accused in a settled federal lawsuit of raping three inmates can't be fired.
Bernalillo County Attorney Randy Autio said Monday that unless jail Sgt. Torry Chambers is convicted of criminal charges, he can't be terminated.
Bernalillo County agreed last week to pay the three women to settle a lawsuit in which they alleged Chambers and an inmate helped each other commit the sexual assaults between 2008 and 2010.
But Chambers hasn't been indicted and a union contract covering jail officers didn't allow for unpaid leave.
The county agreed to settle a union grievance after Chambers was placed on leave without pay by bringing Chambers back to work at the jail, with modified duties.

One of many questions arising from my last article 'Witches and the Law' concerns the much argued issue of definition; who defines witchcraft? The answer lies in another self-answering question, Who self-identifies as a witch?!
My country is multi-cultural and multi-religious and so in order to begin to answer the question, I have to acknowledge that there are several, sometimes contrary definitions in current use by various cultural and religious groups, for the terms 'witch' and 'witchcraft'. I intend to explore in a general sense only, those definitions that have become the subject of contestation between Pagan Witches and others (including traditional healers, academics and the State).
The conflict between often diametrically opposed beliefs and opinions on witchcraft is actually a struggle between two different human rights; on the one hand, the right to cultural and religious belief, and on the other the right to dignity through identity. All three of these rights are enshrined in South Africa's Constitution (Act 108 of 1996).
The Bill of Rights (Chapter Two of the Constitution), guarantees freedom of religion, belief and opinion (S15), the right to language and culture (S30), and the right to establish and maintain cultural, religious and linguistic communities (S31). The right to identity, though not specifically mentioned in the Bill of Rights, is implied in sections 9 entitled Equality, and 10 entitled Human Dignity.
The state may not unfairly discriminate directly or indirectly against any person on the grounds of race, gender, sex, pregnancy, marital status, ethnic and social origin, colour, sexual orientation, age, disability, religion, conscience, belief, culture, language and birth. (S9(3)).
Everyone has inherent dignity and the right to have their dignity respected and protected (S10).
The Republic of South Africa is one, sovereign, democratic state founded on (a) human dignity, equality and the advancement of human rights and freedoms."Founding Provision of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, chapter 1(1)(a).
I will argue that whilst the rights to cultural and religious beliefs may be subject to limitation under section 36 of the Bill of Rights, where the expression of these rights engender or incite human rights abuses, the right to identity may not be subject to similar limitation where such a limitation infringes on the right of citizens to determine their own identities within a free society.
Who defines witchcraft?
I have chosen to highlight three common definitions of witchcraft in South Africa, definitions which fall within the ambit of the rights to culture and religion. I have also of necessity concluded with a fourth definition, one used by Pagan Witches, and one that is diametrically opposed to the others.
Traditional healers
Traditional healers generally regard witchcraft as synonymous with harmful magic; magic that has as its sole goal the causing of harm through the use of malevolent supernatural agency with or without the aid of ritual and magical objects. In South Africa, the illegal use of and trade in human body parts is also ascribed to witches and witchcraft. The attribution of human mutilation with witchcraft remains one of the primary motivations for accusations of witchcraft by both traditional healers and ordinary citizens generally. Traditional healers do not self-identify as witches, and do not call what they do witchcraft. They have repeatedly distanced themselves from witchcraft in numerous media reports. I have chosen to include only four examples of these reports between 2010 and 2016. All are relevant.
The national coordinator of the Traditional Healers' Organisation, Phepsile Maseko, blamed muti murders on "heartless witches". ... Revealing that of a total of 901 cases of corpse mutilation in South Africa last year, Limpopo accounted for 350 and Mpumalanga for 210, Maseko had asked "How could a healer use body parts or remove somebody's body parts while the person is still alive? That means you are a witch, not a healer. ... Maseko was unrepentant this week, saying "Let's be honest here — a witch is a witch and everybody in the country knows that. "Publicly calling yourself a witch in South Africa smacks of white privilege. In a village or township, you'd be dead even before completing your proclamation. Sapra must accept that we speak different languages and live in different areas," she said. [1]
Maseko was responding to a media statement by the South African Pagan Rights Alliance (SAPRA) condemning muti murders and the illegal trade in human body parts for medicine and magic. The statement was supported by the South African Pagan Council, Clan of Kheper Temple, Clan of Mafdet, Lunaguardia, Clan Ysgithyrwyn, The Grove, Pagan Freedom Day Movement, Penton Pagan Magazine, Pagan Federation International South Africa, Pretoria Pagan Social Group, Dream Weaver Pagan Community, Celestine Circle, Temple of the Midnight Sun, Temple of the Celestial Paths and other non-aligned Pagans (Wiccans, Witches and others).
Traditional healer Bongani Shangase, speaking at the launch of the report Trafficking Body Parts in Mozambique and South Africa, is quoted as saying "We want this research to differentiate between witches and traditional healers because we do not use body parts to carry out our calling. Witches do that." ... he and other traditional healers did not dispute the findings, but they did not agree with statements that traditional healers used body parts. "We want this research to differentiate between witches and traditional healers because we do not use body parts to carry out our calling. Witches do that," he said. ... Other traditional healers criticised the study, saying it painted them in a bad light and asking for more conclusive research to be done so people could understand how traditional healers worked. [2]
Traditional healers say they are often accused of being witch doctors. Originally, witch doctors were consulted to drive out evil spirits believed to have been cast over someone by witches, but since colonial times the word has assumed a derogatory meaning and is used to refer to the people who cast spells for evil purposes and create deadly potions. The problem is the misinterpretation of what a sangoma is. A sangoma is not a witch - a sangoma is pure and does good. People due to their lack of knowledge think witch doctors, witches and sangomas are all the same thing and they are not," says Ms Moloi. The other distinction is that traditional healers use herbs, plants and some animal skin in the muthi (medicines), whereas witch doctors are said to also use human body parts, meaning they are sometimes implicated in murders." Makhosazana Moloi [3]
Using human body parts to boost muthi amounts to witchcraft, the Traditional Healers Organisation (THO) said on Friday. "The use of human body parts to make muthi is unknown in the traditional healing trade. No human body parts can be used to make muthi," THO national co-ordinator Temangcamane Maseko said. The THO made the remarks following the court appearance of two sangomas implicated in the disappearance of 3-year-old Leticia Nkentjane in Boschfontein, Mpumalanga, on October 30 2015. Her body had still not been found. The Nelspruit Regional Court recently heard that the two sangomas, Jabulani Ndlovu, 27, and Themba Mnyambo, 43, both from Boschfontein, used the girl's body for muthi."These people, if it really happened, are not our members," said Maseko. They were arrested with four other people on November 23 last year after being suspected of kidnapping the girl. During their bail application, the two sangomas distanced themselves from the allegations. The application was continuing on Friday. [4]
Academia generally has absorbed and, to some extent, adopted a definition of contemporary witchcraft in South Africa that affirms popular consensus held by traditional healers and the communities in which they live and operate.
In 'AIDS, Witchcraft, and the Problem of Power in Post-Apartheid South Africa' Professor Adam Ashforth writes "Witchcraft in the South African context typically means the manipulation by malicious individuals or powers inherent in persons, spiritual entities, and substances to cause harm to others… the motive of witchcraft is typically said to be jealousy." [5]
In criticism of the response by Pagan Witches (specifically the South African Pagan Rights Alliance), to the definition of witchcraft promoted by the Traditional Healers Organization, South African academic Dr. Dale Wallace writes...
In avoiding their own notions of hexing (to curse or cast a spell for bad luck or misfortune) in dialogues with Africans over witchcraft as a malevolent practice, the South African Pagan Rights Alliance (SAPRA) defined witchcraft as 'a religio- magical technique that employs the use of divination, herbalism, sympathetic magic and ritual'. Without full community support, SAPRA has pursued 'reclaiming' the term at public and official levels and, in articles and discussions on social media sites, came to label the African belief in witchcraft as a superstition, albeit that this neocolonial perspective mirrors the tone of denial in the WSA that has been shown to exacerbate witchcraft violence, thereby effectively closing doors to constructive inter- religious consultation and dialogue. Pagans are almost exclusively white and, as a community, mostly eschew racial, gender and religious discrimination. However, SAPRA debates teeter on a slippery boundary in distinguishing the 'white'/benevolent magic of the Pagans from the 'black'/malevolent magic practiced by Africans, who in turn have their own difficulty in separating healing, curative magic practise from magic practices perceived as bringing fear, misfortune and even death into communities. [6]
Wallace takes issue with SAPRA's alternative Pagan-centric definition of Witchcraft as religion. In doing so she mistakenly conflates the right of a religious minority to define itself and to defend its right to equality, with a neo-colonialist worldview in which white Europeans imposed their own economic, political and cultural world-view on non-Europeans. Though Pagans in South Africa are almost exclusively "white", most of us were born in South Africa, as were our grandparents and great grandparents… We are neither European, nor do we seek to colonize the African mind. We are Africans!
Since that article, Wallace has repeatedly reiterated her opinion that the attempt by Pagan Witches to assert their rights to religious freedom and equality by challenging the definition of witchcraft held by traditional healers is "dismissive", "imperialist", "non-inclusive" and essentially a "colonial denial of witchcraft".
The State
In the 1995 Report of the 'Ralushai Commission of Inquiry into Witchcraft Violence and Ritual Murder in the Northern Province', Professor N. V. Ralushai summarized the generally held African cultural and religious dialogue about witchcraft as "All kinds of misfortune, including matters as varied as financial problems, illness, drought or lightning strikes, are blamed on witchcraft."
The Ralushai Commission's report defined the term 'witch' to mean a person who "…through sheer malice, either consciously or subconsciously, employs magical means to inflict all manner of evil on their fellow human beings. They destroy property, bring disease or misfortune and cause death, often entirely without provocation to satisfy their inherent craving for evil doing."
Testifying before a Truth and Reconciliation Commission Amnesty Hearing in 1999, Ralushai confirmed his Commission's definition of a witch when he was asked by attorney Patrick Ndou to define what a witch was. Ralushai stated "A witch is supposed to be a person who is endowed with powers of causing illness or ill luck or death to the person that he wants to destroy."
I have already dealt with the Witchcraft Suppression Act in my previous article and so will not repeat this here. It is important to note however that although the Act does not define witchcraft, it presumes that witches may be engaged in harmful criminal activities, including the use of and trade in human body parts. In that article I also discussed the South African Law Reform Commission's proposed 'Harmful Witchcraft Practices Bill' that seeks to criminalize allegedly harmful witchcraft practices. The Commission's Issue Paper cites the trade in and use of human body parts, and the social response to believed malevolent magical practices, as motivation for the Bill.
Pagan Witches
Pagan Witches have challenged both cultural and religious beliefs about and definitions of witchcraft; those presented above by traditional healers, academics and the state, by appealing to the rights to equality and dignity. In doing so they have attempted to assert their own right to religious freedom.
Since 2007, I and other Pagan Witches have argued that traditional cultural and religious beliefs about, and definitions of witches and witchcraft, are stereotypical and prejudicial to actual Witches who identify Witchcraft as their religion or personal religio-magical practice. They are also harmful to the innocent victims of witchcraft accusations in so far as such beliefs may form an intrinsic part of the underlying motivation for such accusations.
Between 2007 and 2008, I engaged in frequent discussions about the subject of witchcraft with Phepsile Maseko (the national coordinator of the Traditional Healers' Organisation) on several radio programmes. Our first conversation in June 2007 was initiated by our mutual response to the release of a draft 'Mpumalanga Witchcraft Suppression Bill'.
In my conversations with Maseko, she affirmed the right of Pagan Witches to freedom of religion. On public radio SAfm in 2007 she undertook to never again use the terms witch and witchcraft in either a stereotypical or prejudicial context. Her motive for saying this, she said, was her newly gained understanding that Pagan Witches used these terms to describe their identity and their religion. This affirmation was again repeated at the South African Pagan Council's Conference on the Mpumalanga Bill in Melville, Johannesburg. Her conciliatory response to our discussions did not last, as is evidenced from her media comments about witches and Pagan Witches (SAPRA). Collaboration between Pagans and Traditional Healers did however force the Mpumalanga Legislature to withdraw the Bill.
Limitation of rights
Section 36 of the Bill of Rights allows the rights in the Bill of Rights to be limited, provided such limitation is "reasonable and justifiable in an open and democratic society based on human dignity, equality and freedom."
The South African Law Reform Commission has argued for the rights of Witches to be limited in so far as Witches should be regulated by legislation. They motivate this argument by referencing numerous public calls to approach the question of witchcraft from an exclusively traditional cultural and religious perspective. This affirms the position taken and motivated by Maseko and Wallace. The proposed Harmful Witchcraft Practices Bill is the result of this approach.
The recent attempts by Maseko and Wallace to unfairly re-contextualise the struggle of Pagan Witches for equality and dignity as racially biased "white privilege", and the Commission's adopted traditional perspective on the subject of witchcraft which reaffirms prejudicial beliefs about witchcraft, omits a rational analysis of the mischief at hand.
Stereotypical prejudicial beliefs about witchcraft do motivate accusations of witchcraft. Many of these accusations lead to violent witch-hunts against predominantly older women. There is no evidence to prove that the accusations are true, and no evidence to support the theory that the victims of accusation really were or are witches. The harm committed here flows from the beliefs and actions of the accusers, not the victims. It is the victims of accusation who experience the loss of basic human rights, not their accusers.
Numerous media and trial reports concerning people arrested and charged for trafficking in human body parts do not demonstrate that said persons either were or identified as witches. The assumption that both acts of trafficking and the perpetrators of such acts constitutes evidence of witchcraft is based solely on often repeated traditional cultural and religious beliefs. Media reports and interviewees merely reflect those beliefs by dressing the facts of the case in the socially expected garment; witchcraft. The harm here flows from the stereotypical application of well-worn but untested beliefs about a causal connection between trafficking (harm) and witches (those who allegedly do harm).
Whilst the rights to cultural and religious beliefs may be subject to limitation where the expression of these rights incite human rights abuses (section 16(2) right to freedom of expression does not extend to (b) incitement of imminent violence or (c) advocacy of hatred that constitutes incitement to cause harm), the right to dignity may not so easily be subjected to limitation where such a limitation infringes on the right of citizens to determine their own identities within a free society.
It would be unreasonable for Pagan Witches to accept that the state should be allowed to regulate their faith, when no other religious faith is so regulated (S36(1)). It would be unjustifiable for Pagan Witches to be forced to relinquish their right to equality and equal treatment under law (SS 9(1) and (2)). Pagan Witches in South Africa have not been proven to be a danger to the communities in which they live, they have not been charged with committing any crime, and they are entitled to be presumed innocent of any imagined potential harm until proven otherwise by a court of law (S35(3)(h)). Legislative regulation would amount to unfair discrimination against a religious minority (S9(3)).
The struggle of Pagan Witches in South Africa is a struggle for the right to dignity. We seek only to affirm our existing right to continue to identify ourselves as Witches without being identified by the State, through legislation, as potentially harmful or potentially complicit in criminal activity. The right to human dignity, a founding principle of our Constitution cannot be limited, not even by belief. Dignity is neither earned, nor bestowed as reward; it is inherently vested from birth.

PaganSquare is a community blog space where Pagans can discuss topics relevant to the life and spiritual practice of all Pagans.
One of many questions arising from my last article 'Witches and the Law' concerns the much argued issue of definition; who defines witchcraft? The answer lies in another self-answering question, Who self-identifies as a witch?!
If genuine, she could well be the oldest human artifact in Paganistan.
From coiffed head to pointed toe, you can see the resemblance to the Lady of Willendorf immediately.
Articulate, enigmatic, she simultaneously merges with, and emerges from, the stone that is her matrix. At 5¼ x 2¼ inches, you could hold her in the palm of your hand.
And believe me, when you see her, you want to.
She now resides in the heart of the American Midwest at the Minneapolis Institute of the Arts. If the stories are true, her previous home was a cave in southern France, and she's 22,000 years old.
NASA sends a probe to an asteroid to study the origins of life on Earth. A predominant theory in linguistics is challenged by new evidence. And it looks like bees might finally be getting a break.

Title: The Cards of Life and Death...
Fall Equinox is so tantalizingly close you can taste it. Whether you are a parent who routinely coaches homework, or a "non-traditional" returning bookworm yourself, fall is a glorious time of year. Truth be told, I geek out every year over needing to purchase new school supplies. Often noted as everyone's favorite season because of its best-of-both-worlds weather, rich warm hues in clothing and nature, and an excuse to overindulge in all things scented pumpkin – this is the perfect time for a get together to overindulge with pals in tow. Here's how:
Compile a playlist of several school-themed movie soundtracks: "Breakfast Club," "Dazed and Confused," and "Valley Girl," are just a few that immediately come to mind. "Rock 'n' Roll High School," and "Fast Times at Ridgemont High," are other excellent selections.
If folks are game, have everyone dress as an archetype from high school: cheerleader, jock, nerd, drama club weirdo, hippie teacher, hard-ass principal. Dress to reconnect with your former teenage self, or to indulge a fantasy of what it may have been like to be someone else for a day. Let this be a warm-up for Halloween.
One word for food fare: apples. They are so succulent/tasty/lovely/tart/juicy at this time of year, no one can get enough of them. Cut up slices to accompany various cheese plates with grape garnishes, and make them the dipping favorites for a caramel apple sauce centerpiece. If you're feeling ambitious, bake a homemade pie. And by all means, break out the hard cider. Assemble "after-school snacks" of "Ants on a Log," (celery, peanut butter and raisins on top), or "Lincoln Logs Sandwiches." Do not be shy about breaking out a package of Totino's Pizza Rolls or a fresh bag of Cheddar Combos. Believe me, people will delight in the nostalgia.
For other gimmicky fun, create an initiation to gain entry to your event. If leaning more toward a college theme, pop in a DVD of "Animal House." Create a drinking game where everyone does a shot whenever John Belushi as Bluto pulls a crazy stunt onscreen (food fight, breaking dude's guitar). I leave you with this from the FoodChannel Editor:
"Question: I was watching the 'Sopranos' and saw Carmella making a dish which she called Lincoln logs. I am curious, what are they? They looked good, so how do you make them what are some of the ingredients?
"Answer: Lincoln Logs (as seen on the 'Sopranos') are apparently hot dog buns or white bread, in which you place hot dogs layered with cream cheese. They can be served warm or cold. They are also known as Seattle Cream Cheese Dogs, although the Lincoln Logs variety is said to be an East Coast version. The basic recipe appears to be:
Take a slice of white bread, spread cream cheese on it, split a cooked hot dog lengthwise and place each half, cut side down, on the bread. To get the Lincoln Log effect, you may need a second hot dog that is laid over the first in the other direction. Some versions appear to mix a little mayonnaise with the cream cheese for spreading ease. You can lightly toast the bread or add a piece of American cheese before adding the spread and hot dog.
"Or, you can try the standard Seattle recipe as found at All Recipes."

Post by Mark Hubrich, Co-Founder & VP Client & Industry Relations
Back from the holidays, refreshed and excited to start the New year! I always attempt to set goals for the year and also like to reflect about what I can expect with technology and the change it brings to the meetings and travel industry. I recently attended a conference in mid December which had a session on tools for the tablet hosted by Jeff Spellos (always an entertaining and engaging industry speaker) and was surprised to hear the history of the iPad and its impact on the industry. The first iPad from Apple was launched only 2 and a half years ago and it has had a dramatic change in those two years. It went from a nice toy to a valuable tool which can make the meeting process much easier from both the planners as well as attendee's experience. During his sessions at the conference I took notes on my iPad and brought back at least 20-30 new apps to check out in my spare time. The new Microsoft Surface may be the latest gadget that will be impactful on the industry.
At last summer's MPI WEC conference, I noticed that in order to become more green and efficient, the conference no longer had printed materials upon check-in. Everyone had instructions to download an app to their smart phone to see the schedule, locations, and to interact with the conference and attendees. Twitter had a real time impact on the conference with comments on the sessions or food and beverage which were quickly addressed by the conference organizers.
I would like to compose a list all of the new apps I'm learning about at educational sessions but it is constantly changing with new discoveries every month. Here are 2 quick links to sites that Mr. Spellos listed to keep abreast of the latest event technology.
In 2013, I think we shall see more of the following trends on the meetings industry:
• More planners are looking into and developing a mobile strategy around their events.
• Implementation of social tools for events. This may include video marketing or a YouTube channel for the event.
• More social curation around events.
• Mobile payment is having more of an impact and making events more efficient.
• New hotel booking tools to improve the rfp and site selection for events and conferences.
The pace of change in technology is increasing and exciting. I'm looking forward to SignUp4 being an agent of change with the new features and tools to be launched from our innovation. I think 2013 will be a thrilling year for sure.

A rescue team working on Christmas Day removed rope and debris from an entangled humpback whale off West Maui.
Whale expert Ed Lyman of the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary said he believed the team freed the whale of most or all of the material it was dragging, which included an anchor; but that he could not be sure because he didn't get a chance to look under the animal before it swam away.
"We got most of the gear off, but we cannot be 100 percent certain we got all the gear off," he said Saturday.
Tour boats reported spotting a distressed whale off Launiupoko State Wayside Park around 12:15 p.m. Christmas Day, and initially believed the animal had been hurt by a boat because it appeared to be having trouble swimming, he said.
When the rescue team arrived in the sanctuary's 36-foot boat Hihimanu, it discovered the whale was actually tangled in rope, with a wound on its tail where the rope was cutting into it.
An assessment found 60 to 70 feet of rope were trailing behind the whale, along with an anchor and a tangle of gear. Lyman described the entanglement as "life threatening."
After failed attempts to cut the rope using a knife on a long pole, the team launched a 17-foot inflatable boat to get closer to the animal, Lyman said.
"We made some approaches to the whale and threw a grapple to get hold of that trailing line," he said.
The team pulled up a few feet behind the whale's tail and attempted again to remove the line, making two cuts in the rope on top and four cuts under the tail.
After the team made its last cut at 5:30 p.m., "the whale swam rapidly away, literally into the sunset," Lyman said.
The whale now "has a much better chance of survival," he said.
But since the team couldn't verify whether all the ropes had been removed, he asked tour operators to continue to keep a lookout for it.
"It would be nice to get another look at this whale," he said.
In addition to the sanctuary, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Fisheries Service participated in the rescue, with support from the U.S. Coast Guard. Lyman also said the whale watch tour companies played an important role by reporting the whale and staying with it until the rescue team arrived.
"They're our eyes out there," he said.
Anyone who sees an injured, distressed or entangled whale can report it by calling (888) 256-9840.

Shannon and especially MediaWeary, how to you replace an old reality with a new reality? I offer one answer: imagination. Indeed grime political strifes are the current situation in Africa (including Malawi, for sure.) William knows what hunger is. During a time of devestating famine, he hungered for food, he hungered for means to pay for basic needs to be clothed, to be sheltered, to sustain a small farm business (certainly mostly his dad's burden for the farm, to sell crops for BASIC household subsistence), and he hungered with a burning desire for real knowledge (not being able to afford to go to school.) In all of these areas William tried to help his family, with nothing but his own will and imagination. Most people, including his own parents, in his village thought this young boy was going crazy with his power generating windmill obsession, just from pictures of a basic science book for youngsters (he could not read English). But against conventional thinking, he prove you can make something out of nothing and imagination. "I tried, and I did it," is my favorite quote from this remakable, humble, human being, William Kamkwamba. The odds have been continually stacked against him, in many ways (only one of them being political), yet I am not betting against him. I dare not, for I will be giving up on the best of ourselves on planet Earth. We still hunger for an Earth with an overwhelming majority of William Kamkwambas. Imagine with me.
With the paperback edition of The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind (one of our top 10 books of 2009) hitting shelves today, we checked in with author/inventor/dynamo William Kamkwamba to see where his inspiring journey has taken him over the last eight months. Not surprisingly, he provided a sta...

CAN WE TALK about Joan Rivers?
Because she'd hate it if we didn't.
Rivers, 81, who died yesterday at New York's Mount Sinai Hospital a week after going into cardiac arrest during vocal-cord surgery in a doctor's office, wasn't just a fashion critic with an unfiltered mouth, a QVC jewelry line and a penchant for plastic surgery.
Oh, she was unapologetically all those things, as well as the author of a dozen books, including this year's Diary of a Mad Diva.

Sometimes it's better to just leave well enough alone.
L. Frank Baum's classic book "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" was made into one of the best-loved films of all time. If you don't choke up a little when Dorothy sings "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," you need to join the Tin Man and search for a heart.
Baum wrote other Oz books, including "Ozma of Oz" and "The Road to Oz." Those, along with the best-known, are used for source material for "The Witches of Oz." They just aren't used very well. The idea is intriguing -- that Dorothy, now grown up and living in New York, is a successful children's author, and her books are based not on her imagination but on repressed memories of Oz, some of which surface from time to time.
Good idea, poor execution. That's what plagues Leigh Scott's film. That and some bad acting, plus a disjointed feel that makes it difficult to follow what's happening and why. No doubt that is due at least in part to the film being a cut-down version of a miniseries.
Dorothy (Paulie Rojas) is working with her aggressive agent Billie (Eliza Swenson) on selling her next project. But the truth about her memories and then the identity of some of her friends and business relations -- and enemies -- is gradually revealed. It seems that when she was a child in Oz, the Wizard (Christopher Lloyd, overacting like a champ) made a deal with the Wicked Witch of the West, whose identity it's best not to reveal; now the witch is in New York, looking for a key Dorothy has that will give her power over our world.
Rojas tries mightily to bring something to Dorothy but isn't quite the actress to do it. Swenson rivals Lloyd in over-the-top acting. Billy Boyd, as a friend of Dorothy's, is OK, but only Mia Sara -- yes, from "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" -- as a minion of the witch, and Barry J. Ratcliffe, as an associate of Dorothy's and, later, a familiar character from "Oz," seem to be having any fun.
That's too bad, but the whole thing was a risk. If you're going to tinker with a classic, you don't have much room for error. "Dorothy and the Witches of Oz" is proof.

It might take less stress on Amarillo's water system to trigger citywide conservation measures.
Amarillo City Council members heard a summary of a draft recommendation on Tuesday to change the city's drought contingency plan to have Stage 1 voluntary restrictions on landscape watering kick in when water use is 70 percent of the water system's capacity rather than the current 80 percent. The more strict irrigation restrictions would also trip triggers sooner.
"Our purpose is to actually have a drought recognition in a formal way," Utilities Director Emmett Autrey said. "It sends up a balloon to the community at large."
Had the proposed restrictions been in place in 2011 when the year's total precipitation measured 7 inches, Stage 1 or 2 restrictions would have run from June to August, said City Manager Jarrett Atkinson.
The problem is people respond when a stage is triggered, but gradually return to normal watering.
"We have to keep trying. We have to keep educating," Atkinson said.
Mayor Paul Harpole asked if the trigger should be even sooner or if there needs to be a new restriction ordinance.
City Attorney Marcus Norris said a new ordinance might not be allowed under state law and could be hard to enforce.
"You could try public shaming ... put out a list of top 10 water wasters," he said.
Despite being in the fourth year of a drought, Amarillo water customers have been exceeding city usage goals. In the month of April, there have been only three days when use was below the goal of about 44 million gallons. On Monday, residents used almost 61 million gallons.
There will be a public hearing next week before a vote on the proposed changes.
As part of an accelerated program to rid the city of substandard structures, council members also voted to tear down two homes, one in the 1500 block of South Lincoln Street and the other in the 100 block of North Louisiana Street.
In other business, council members accepted a $9,000 grant to pay overtime to police officers enforcing seat belt laws over the Memorial Day weekend. They also awarded contracts for about $1.5 million to purchase heavy vehicles, trailers, street sweepers and forklifts.

Behavioral: worksite intervention
Arthritis is second only to heart disease as a cause of work-related disability with significant financial costs associated with the loss of work for persons with arthritis. Many persons with arthritis have physical impairments which affect their ability to work, with 50% of persons with rheumatoid arthritis leaving employment within 10 years of diagnosis. Risk factors predicting employability, length of employment and worksite accommodations for workers with arthritis have been well documented. Variables predicting work cessation include blue collar jobs and more physically demanding jobs, an older age of the worker, lower education, perceived job strain, social support of co-workers and supervisors, job satisfaction, and self-efficacy. Recent studies of self-report by persons with arthritis identified the use of worksite accommodations such as others providing assistance at work, job autonomy, time flexibility, and use of special equipment. Unknown is the effect of on-site work interventions. The need exists to determine if the provision of strategies for physical accommodations, worksite modifications, and assistive technologies at the individual's job site improves the ability of persons with arthritis to continue working.
This is a randomized clinical trial to investigate the efficacy of a worksite based intervention to improve the employment outcomes of persons with rheumatoid (RA) or osteoarthritis (OA). Persons with RA or OA who have arthritis related work difficulties will have an occupational therapist provide a worksite evaluation and subsequent training in strategies to accommodate arthritis related physical impairments and improve job performance and satisfaction. Participants in control group will be provided with educational printed materials related for a self-initiated worksite evaluation of musculoskeletal and environmental risks at the worksite for persons with arthritis.

text: Explore The city centre The city centre Puerto Madero The south The north The west Share A sometimes chaotic mix of old-fashioned cafés, grand nineteenth-century public edifices, high-rise office blocks and tearing traffic, Buenos Aires' city centre exudes energy and elegance – though it can be shabby and downright dingy in parts. Its heart is the spacious, palm-dotted Plaza de Mayo, the ideal place to begin a tour of the area and explore its historical and political connections; its mismatched medley of buildings includes the famous Casa Rosada, or government house. An amble westwards from the plaza will take you along Avenida de Mayo, the city's major boulevard, offering an impressive display of Art Nouveau and Art Deco architecture. At its western end, Avenida de Mayo opens onto the Plaza del Congreso, presided over by the Congreso Nacional building, the seat of the federal parliament. From Plaza del Congreso, Avenida Callao will take you northwards to Avenida Corrientes. Now a busy commercial artery, Corrientes was famous in the twentieth century as the hub of the city's left-leaning café society. Though there's less plotting going on here today, it's still the place to get some culture, lined as it is with no end of bookstores, music shops, cinemas and theatres. A short detour north from Corrientes will take you to Plaza Lavalle, a long, grassy square most notable for the magnificent opera house that looms over its eastern edge, the regal Teatro Colón. East from Plaza Lavalle, you'll hit the jarring and enormous Avenida 9 de Julio – the city's multilane central nerve. Presiding at its heart is the stark white Obelisco, a 67m stake through the intersection of avenidas 9 de Julio and Corrientes. Crossing east over 9 de Julio, you head into a densely packed and busy block known as the microcentro (the Argentine term for downtown), whose two main streets are pedestrianized Lavalle and Florida, where you'll be swept along by a stream of human traffic past elegant galerías (arcades) and stores of every kind. Buenos Aires' small financial district – called, in homage to London, ''La City'' – makes up the southeast corner of the microcentro, while to the northeast sits the quieter "El Bajo", home to yet more downtown bars and restaurants.

Some planning and zoning employees will likely work less hours to cut labor expenses, under this year's $610,000 department budget.
Louise Allen, director of the county's Planning & Development Services land-use agency, said she's confident the department can reduce spending and cut costs without affecting public services.
LA GRANGE – For the North Oldham 11-year-old all-stars it was all about attitude that led them to a state championship.
"This was a good team and a bunch of girls that had no attitude, they did everything we asked them to," team manager Rick Oldham said. "They really went out and just played."
North Oldham beat Franklin-Simpson 12-11 to win the title.
They also beat Franklin-Simpson 7-5 in their opener. Both games were on Franklin-Simpson's field.
Several local students recently won awards in the annual statewide high school journalism contest hosted by the Kentucky High School Journalism Association.
South Oldham Middle School students competed in the regional RCX competition in March at Henry County Middle School.
Road crews are expected to hack as much as $100,000 in county paving projects this year, under Oldham County's new $20.5 million fiscal budget.
That's disappointing news to Sheree Leffel Knopf, who lives in the county's rural northeastern corner.
Knopf said road conditions are so poor near Highway 1488, that her husband often tows stuck motorists with his tractor. In rough conditions, she said some neighbors must rely on ATVs to get home. Property owners in the most remote areas have no reliable road access, she said.
LA GRANGE — A juvenile could be in custody as early as Friday for allegedly igniting a fire that downed power lines and destroyed a city playground earlier this month, according to reports from the La Grange Police Department.
Maj. Frank Conway said officers initially questioned a kid after they recovered his cell phone at the scene of a June 17 fire at Wilborn Park. The kid is a person of interest, Conway said, but not the main suspect.
Police said they couldn't comment further about suspects while the case is being investigated.
A two-year wage freeze for county workers won't thaw soon under this year's fiscal budget. It's indefinite when raises for municipal workers — including office clerks, county law enforcement and fire officials — will be reinstated.
"We are asking employees to forgo a full year now," Judge-Executive Duane Murner said. "It's the second time we've had to do this. I'm hoping we don't have to again."
The spending moratorium will save the county about $92,000, he said.
LA GRANGE – Tournament tested at nearly every position, the North Oldham Junior softball team weathered three tough games to win the state title in London Friday.
North Oldham edged South Hardin 2-0 to take the title and advance to the regional tourney in Elyria, Ohio Aug. 6.
"Everybody was so excited when we won," North Oldham pitcher Danielle Hempel said. "We're ready to go up to Ohio and see what we can do."
BUCKNER – Three years ago they practiced 17 days in a gym, then went out and won their first ever game 8-4.
Since then, the Oldham County Middle School baseball team has continued that success as the program grows in popularity and tradition.
"We didn't even get outside that first year before we played our first game," OCMS coach Mark Viehmann said. "We have come a long way."

Something that was only used to play with before has become an important equipment for many artists. We are talking about the Lego bricks; it seem like people are making anything out of them today. Flickr user Angus MacLane was also obviously interested in Legos when he made famous characters out of it. They turned out to be small figures of Batman and Robyn, Terminator, Spiderman, R-2 D2 and many others.
His collection is rather big, and the Lego figures are so tiny that they almost look cute, and not bad-ass at all even thought most of the characters are real bad-asses. And while we're at the thing about building artistic objects with Lego bricks, you should take a look at Legoland in Germany that is a huge tourist attraction.
