Keely's Nutrition Plan
Keely believes that a healthy lifestyle consists of exercise and a healthy diet. According to Keely, "What you do in the gym is 50%. What you do outside of the gym and what you're putting in your body outside of the gym is the other 50%."

Keely's Success Story
"With fitness and health, when you take that first step, you attract the right people into your life. Your environment changes around you and you can reach your goal" explains Keely Field, a LA Fitness member.
In January 2015, Keely found herself at her heaviest weight, which caused her pain. She would often ignore the pain, but knew it wouldn't go away. After countless medical appointments, Keely's doctor explained that she was on the path to Type 2 Diabetes and needed to do something about it. Keely realized she no longer could ignore the pain in her body and needed to be proactive about her doctor's concerns about her health. Keely knew it was time for something to change.
Shortly after meeting with her doctor, Keely joined the LA Fitness Pro Results® Personal Training Program and started training with Jay Padilla, a Pro Results® trainer. Jay knew exactly how Keely felt. He shared his own weight loss journey, which reassured Keely and let her know that she was in good hands. Keely started to train with Jay on a regular basis and complete a variety of workouts. Each time Keely entered the gym, she knew no two training sessions were ever going to be the same.
Jay's encouragement and Keely's dedication to her diverse workouts keep her moving forward. She continues to set goals and reach them every few months. Over time, these goals increase and Keely continues to enjoy successes with Jay. In fact, Keely recently surpassed her goal of losing 50lbs and has lost over 65lbs as of July 1, 2016!
As Keely reflects on her weight loss success, she shares that "you lose people, you lose things, you can lose moments, you can lose friends, you can lose partners, but what you never ever lose is an achievement." Keely knows no one is going to do it for her. She continues to stay focused on her fitness and work out with Jay. She took her first step into her fitness journey and knows there is no turning back.

Are there a lot of aflatoxins in almond milk?
I have two questions.
1. I drink almond milk. Someone told me that the almond concentrates toxins before being picked. Hence, Almond milk being a highly concentrated amount of almonds in liquid form is therefore highly toxic. Is there any truth to this?
2. I have read that red wine provides numerous health benefits and that drinking one drink per day for men is healthier than no alcoholic drink per day. What amount, if any, red wine, should I be drinking daily? – Mike
- Mycotoxins (from fungus) exist as "unavoidable contaminants" in nut and grain products. Aflatoxin B1 is on the list of human carcinogens. That's why the US has a regulatory system for aflatoxin monitoring and control by sampling and analysis. In addition, US growers have active programs in place to minimize aflatoxins in the orchard. Aflatoxins from almonds are reduced by peeling and roasting/cooking prior to milk production. So it would be extremely rare if someone got sick from it through almond milk. Actually, the amount of almonds in a half-gallon container are less than you might eat raw… just under a handful!
- Red wine's primary beneficial phytochemical is resveratrol, found in the grape skins (that's why there's not much in white wine). The amount found in red wine may be no more than that from red and purple grape juices, plus the content depends on the variety and growing region. Drinking red wine may be incidentally related to a reduction in risk of heart disease and cancer, but so does eating more produce such as grapes, blueberries, cranberries, peanuts, pistachios, and cocoa. Note that populations with higher red wine consumption exhibiting lower cardiovascular disease also consume a Mediterranean style diet. To answer your question, if you are a drinker maintaining a healthy weight, then having a daily glass of red wine (instead of beer or liquor) is fine.

LA Fitness Civic Day Holiday Hours for Canada 2016

Eating to Win: Court Sports
Debbie J., MS, RD contributed this article –
If you play racquetball, volleyball or basketball, then you're no stranger to the high-intensity physical exercise required to play on the courts. Of course, each sport has its specific skills needed to play effectively, but they are similar in that they all use short burst anaerobic movements to stay fast on your feet. Compared to field sports where playing fields can consist of upwards of 5,000 square yards, racquetball, volleyball and basketball involve more agility and rapid back-and-forth play since the area of play is much smaller: Basketball; 522 square yards; Volleyball (from baseline to net) 96 square yards; and Racquetball 88 square yards.
With the stop-and-go action of these sports, the work that your muscles go through is intermittent. This is especially true for team sports with some team members sitting on the bench awaiting play and muscle recovery happens between bouts of activity. Also, there is no specific muscle group at continuous work and continuously during play (unlike distance sports); rather, varying muscles are engaged as needed for sprinting, crouching, jumping, pushing and/or swinging. This creates an underlying overall aerobic demand, which varies especially when play lasts for an hour or more at a time.
A player's carbohydrate needs vary depending on the type of high-intensity play, duration of physical exertion and rest periods, and overall length of the game. The frequency of games impacts metabolic demands; for instance, multiple matches in one day (as in tournament competition) is one example of that requires a heavy demand of carbohydrates. Read on to find out how to fuel these needs before, during, and after playing these high-intensity sports.
Having sufficient energy to complete a competition is immensely important.
Below are the approximate number of calories burned while playing basketball, volleyball, and racquetball, calculated from The Compendium of Physical Activities (2011)1:
|Over the course of 60 minutes of play:
|160 pound person will burn approximately:
|200 pound person will burn approximately:
|581 Calories
|727 Calories
|436 Calories
|545 Calories
|509-727 Calories
|636-909 Calories
Remember to adjust depending on your weight, as well as the number of games that you might play during "league competition" up to three 60 minute games for volleyball & basketball, and up to three 15 minute games for racquetball.
A good piece of advice is to consume half the anticipated calorie need prior to the session in solid food, a quarter during exercise in the form of sports drinks and a quarter in recovery nutrition afterward.
First and foremost, you need to be in balance energy-wise for the day. It's not a good idea to come into a game with an energy deficit and try to make up for it by eating a bunch before you play. Your stomach will agree here!
Think carbohydrates (carbs) first, then protein and fat. Whether during aerobic or anaerobic work, muscles use glycogen and blood glucose (carbohydrates) for fuel. Most studies show that ingesting carbohydrate before and during play enhances intermittent high-intensity exercise capacity.2 Though, carbohydrates are the primary nutrient used to fuel muscle work, fat may contribute in longer practice sessions and multiple game playoffs. If inadequate carbohydrate is consumed, highly specialized protein might be burned to meet energy demands. You don't want to sacrifice protein (the main constituent of muscle) for fuel, since protein is needed for so many other functions.
Carbohydrates should be easily digestible (often called "high glycemic") for rapid energy and replenishment. Choose low fiber starches and fruit products like pretzels, water crackers, rice, pasta, canned fruit, applesauce and bananas. Sports drinks should have about 15 grams of carbohydrate per 8 fl. oz.; and the carbohydrates should come from glucose, fructose, or sucrose. For longer matches, carbohydrates may also come from maltodextrin. Take a tip that some competitive athletes follow and consume about 30-60 grams of carbohydrates per hour during play and practice. Remember, to finish a competition with strong performance, you can't be in a carbohydrate deficit.
Protein and fats should provide the remainder of your calories. Prior to game time, choose easily digestible protein sources such as egg whites, poultry breast, fish, soymilk/tofu, avocado and oils. If your body can tolerate dairy, yogurt is another good choice. Leave the heavy items like cheese, bacon and nuts for another time. During play, a small amount of protein (5-10 grams) in a sports drink is fine but not necessary. Postgame foods include up to 25 grams of protein in your recovery snack, bar or shake.

'Cold Case Files' – Are Fresh Foods Really Better?
Debbie J., MS, RD contributed this article –
What do refrigerated versions of common condiments offer that their shelf-stable (unrefrigerated dry aisle items) counterparts do not? Generally speaking, the refrigerated versions contain a lot less sodium, fewer (or no) preservatives, and often better taste. Blue cheese salad dressing is prime example of how noticeable the differences can be. This is because blue cheese does not sit well at room temperature. In the refrigerated version of blue cheese salad dressing, you can find real chunks of blue cheese in a bath of cream. Yum!
Most health professionals who would say that raw foods are best. Who has time to make everything from scratch, though? Sometimes you just need to grab a sauce, dressing or dip then pour or spoon it onto your food – Presto! Your snack or dinner is enhanced. So why not do so with condiment options that offer better nutritional value?
Below you can see how some popular fresh condiments found in the chilled section stack up versus the options in the dry (preservative packaged) aisle.
Note – In order to maintain objectivity and reduce variables as possible, only products offered in both refrigerated and shelf stable versions from the same manufacturer are being compared in the following examples. Differences in ingredients between the two are highlighted in blue for fresh and in red for preservative packaged shelf-stable foods.
Ranch Dressing
Fresh: Fat 17 gms, Sodium 200 mg, Carbohydrate 2 gms, Protein 1 gm
Soybean oil, Buttermilk, Distilled vinegar, Egg yolk, Salt, Sugar, Dehydrated garlic, Autolyzed yeast extract, Dehydrated onion, Spices, Xanthan gum, Natural flavors
Shelf: Fat 13 gms, Sodium 240 mg, Carbohydrate 1 gm, Protein 0 gm
Soybean oil, Water, Buttermilk, Egg yolk, Sugar, Distilled vinegar, Salt, Phosphoric acid, Modified corn starch, Xanthan gum, Monosodium glutamate, Potassium sorbate, Sodium benzoate, Dehydrated garlic, Spices, Natural flavors, Calcium disodium EDTA, Disodium inosinate, Disodium guanylate
Cream-Style Horseradish
Fresh: Sodium 10 mg, Fat 0 gm
Horseradish, Distilled vinegar, Water, Cream, Salt, Natural flavoring
Shelf: Sodium 40 mg, Fat 1 gm
Water, Soybean oil, Horseradish, Vinegar, Sugar, Food starch, Salt, Egg yolks, Mustard flour, Natural flavor, Lemon juice concentrate, Xanthan gum, Vitamin E, Spices
Balsamic Vinaigrette Dressing
Fresh: Fat 8 gms, Sodium 125 mg, Sugar 1 gm
Water, Soybean oil, Vinegar, Sugar, Olive oil, Maltodextrin, Salt, Dehydrated onion, Balsamic vinegar, Stabilizer (Mono and Diglycerides, Guar gum, and Polysorbate 60), Garlic powder, Spices, Nonfat dry milk, Dehydrated green & red bell pepper, Caramel color, Natural flavor, Xanthan gum, Lemon juice powder, Silicon dioxide
Shelf: Fat 8 gms, Sodium 140 mg, Sugar 2 gms
Water, Soybean oil, Vinegar, High fructose corn syrup, Red wine vinegar, Basil, Salt, Balsamic vinegar, Food starch-Modified, Sodium benzoate, Potassium sorbate, Dehydrated garlic, Caramel color, Xanthan gum, Natural flavor, Oregano, Ground mustard seed, Spices, Calcium disodium EDTA, White wine, Tartaric acid, Citric acid
Sometimes "Fresh" doesn't necessarily mean chilled…
Not everything needs to be refrigerated before it's opened. If the concentration of acid (pH 4.5 or less), oil or sugar is high enough, then microbial growth is prevented even at room temperature. This applies to products such as vinegar, hot sauce, cooking oils, and honey. Although most BBQ sauces, ketchups and mustards last longer in the refrigerator after they're opened, they are fine from the shelf, too. Also, beverages that are aseptically (sterile, air-tight) packaged can be kept at room temperature (but may taste better chilled). For these items, any difference in sodium, sugar or fat is due to different flavors or brands.
The next time you are at the grocery store, take a minute to see if your favorite dressing or dip has a fresh counterpart. For your body and taste buds, finding the fresh version will likely be worth the search!

Are we leaving the arts out of journalism?
Like most journalists, I look to reports like the recently released Tow Center report on the changing nature of the field for guidance, for ways of thinking about what I do. But what I find is that what I do as a critic is increasingly marginalized or ignored by such studies.
In the thousands of words in the report from Tow, based at the Columbia School of Journalism and written by some of the finest minds in the field, there is a glaring void. There is no real consideration of cultural dialogue and criticism, perhaps the fastest shrinking segment of mainstream media today. Journalism worth doing is defined as investigative, watchdog journalism, the stories that somebody, somewhere doesn't want written. I would agree that this is the core of good journalism. »Read Full Blog Post(9)
The Head and the Heart scores at sold-out Riverside Theater
The Head and the Heart's Saturday concert at the Riverside Theater has been sold out for weeks. But there was some question whether the audience would put much heart into the concert — since the Badgers' Final Four game against the Wildcats was happening at the same time.
But the show went on. And while concertgoers regularly checked the score on their phones, and several seats in balcony went unclaimed due to no-shows, the folk revival sextet for the most part kept its head in the game (the concert, that is), so the fans could keep their heads out of that other game. »Read Full Article(1)
Picks for Sunday's Academy of Country Music Awards
Tomorrow marks the first of the year's big country music award shows when the Academy of Country Music hands out its slate of honors at 7 on CBS. While the Las Vegas-based spectacle has lost a bit of luster against the Nashville-based Country Music Association Awards, it is still a big night that will find many of the genre's big stars all gussied up for the cameras. Blake Shelton and Luke Bryan proved a popular host pairing and they return with what is sure to be another year of shenanigans from the two big stars.
More than the awards handed out, the show will be a showcase of performances by a big-name lineup that includes Jason Aldean, Dierks bentley, Sheryl Crow, Lee Brice, Eric Church, Hunter Hayes, Miranda Lambert, Toby Keith, Tim McGraw, Rascal Flatts, Lady Antebellum with Stevie Nicks, Florida Georgia Line and more. »Read Full Blog Post
MSO brings clarity, conviction to Beethoven's Symphony No. 7
There's a reason some pieces of music make their way into what is known as the "standard orchestral repertoire." It's a simple matter of people wanting to hear them again and again.
The Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra brought one of those pieces that audiences crave, Beethoven's Symphony No. 7, to the Pabst Theater on Friday evening, in a performance that felt a lot like one was getting caught up with a dear, old friend. »Read Full Article
Next Act takes plunge with 'Three Views of the Same Object'
In this budget-conscious era of too many contrived plays involving too few actors who must each play multiple characters, playwright Henry Murray bravely takes a different tack with "Three Views of the Same Object": profligately requiring a producing theater to hire multiple actors to play a single character.
Kudos to Next Act Theatre Artistic Director David Cecsarini for taking the plunge, hiring an outstanding veteran cast of six actors and treating Milwaukee to a must-see production of this haunting, beautifully written play, which asks some very hard questions we'd all rather ignore about how we choose to die — and what those choices say about how we've chosen to live. »Read Full Article
Where to watch the Badgers tonight
If you're not cheering on the Badgers in the Final Four from a seat in AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, the next best thing may be cheering them on with hordes of other fans at a local watering hole.
Milwaukee has no shortage of bars and restaurants to watch the game at, and some are offering specials during the game. Tip-off is scheduled for 7:49 p.m. on TBS, but you'll want to arrive earlier than that to nab a seat. »Read Full Blog Post(3)

Slurred speech and anti-anxiety medication
Q: I am a 19 year old male and for about 5 years now I've been having some frustrating symptoms. Every now and then I have these spells where my speech gets slurred and it gets difficult to speak. I lose all coordination in my body and my face feels weird. I also feel very confused and disoriented. It gets the worst during physical activity but it happens off and on all the time. What could this be?
A: I do understand your concern. The problems of speech that you are facing is due to dysarthria which could be due to many conditions. However that most likely cause of slurred speech in your case would be the anti anxiety medication. Medication like xanax and benzodiazepines may cause slurring of speech, confusion and disorientation.

I have a table with one text field. This field can have urls I need get only de urls but no the rest of the field. I have gotten this with a query first and then a php function but I think will be more efficient get the urls with only one query. Also, If I use this solution I get repeated urls and I should create other function to delete that then is quite unefficient... My database is so big, around 3.5gb then I need be very efficient...
For example:
PHP Code:
But with this solution I get "url1", "url2" and "url1"
I would use a regular expression in a query to obtain them directly .. Something like that:
PHP Code:
But with this query mysql return this error: "Got error 'repetition-operator operand invalid' from regexp" and I don't know why...
I hope you can help me... Thank you!

To wank, or masturbate.
Uncle Herbert told me to patch the one eyed snake, so I went out looking for a one with a box of band-aids. I eventually got tired as I couldn't find it, so I ran behind a bush and masturbated furiously.

Erie students receive $20,000 in musical instruments
The Wilson Middle School musicians sat waiting in the band room, having just been called from their classes over the loudspeaker.
One girl cast a sideways glance at a friend sitting next to her, conveying an unspoken question: Why are we here?
Music teacher Jon Nolan didn't keep them in suspense for long. He stood in front of a stack of black instrument cases.
"It's Christmas in April," he said and laughed.
Wilson, they learned Friday, had been selected by the Mr. Holland's Opus Foundation to receive 10 new alto saxophones and seven new flutes, a donation valued at nearly $20,000. The California-based foundation inspired by the 1995 film of the same name donates musical instruments to underfunded music programs throughout the United States.
The students were slack-jawed in awe.
They gingerly unwrapped the instruments from the original packaging and pieced them together. Some carefully started playing a few notes. Before long, the room was filled with deep saxophone bellows and the trills of flutes.
Seventh-grader Savannah Rhoades inspected her new flute, the first new instrument she's ever played.
"Look at this!" the 12-year-old said to anyone who would listen. "Look, look, look! It's so shiny!"
The pads on the old one provided by the school sometimes stick. She effortlessly moved through scales on the new one.
"It's beautiful," she said.
Kiara Moore, a 14-year-old eighth-grader, has been playing in the band since sixth grade. She recently switched from clarinet to saxophone. Pieces are missing from her old school saxophone and it's rusting in some spots, but she tried to make do.
"I was shocked," she said of the gift of a new saxophone. "The new one is all shiny and I got to open it myself."
The application process to receive the instruments was extensive, involving the submission of a videotaped class lesson and Skype interviews with the foundation.
"It shows how much Mr. Nolan really cares," Savannah said.
Nolan said he hopes that giving the students new instruments will push them to strive to achieve. They're just as deserving as students in other bands that can afford new instruments, he said.
"This is the kind of stuff that people become music teachers for."

Magic Johnson Says Lakers Will Shoot Fewer Threes
Lakers legend Magic Johnson hated Mike D'Antoni as Lakers coach. There's really no more accurate way to describe it, as Johnson hated the lack of defense, the style, and most of all, he hated the losing.
In an interview about new coach Byron Scott, Johnson says that next season's team, which has even less talent than last year's after Pau Gasol's departure, will be better based on one simple fact. They'll shoot fewer threes.
Johnson was optimistic that the Scott signing is a step in the right direction for the Lakers, despite no Anthony and no Gasol.
"The team is better than what we had last season, because we have more guys who can do more things than just shoot three-pointers," said Johnson. "If I don't see another three-pointer from a Laker team, I'll be happy."

good move to save civilians
bad move because it could lead to a conflict on accident
russia wants to flex its muscles, maybe even start a small skirmish with the US
Kaspar RichterImproving growth prospects will be difficult with further increases in oil prices unlikely, capacity utilization similar to pre-crisis peaks, unemployment at a record low, an aging and shrinking workforce and declining oil production in the absence of large investments and new discoveries.
World Bank Lead Economist for Russia
As someone who deals with economic forecasts on a regular basis, I find that economists for the World Bank have an accuracy rate somewhere around Meteorologists. Russia has far more resources than just oil. Don't they span like 13 time zones?Kaspar Richter
World Bank Lead Economist for Russia
Yes, the aging workforce is a problem. They're working on combating that... however brutal the tactics may be. That, however, is the only true problem facing them.
They're also a major gas exporter; but as the US begins gas exports that won't be safe either.Russia has far more resources than just oil. Don't they span like 13 time zones?
Yes, the aging workforce is a problem. They're working on combating that... however brutal the tactics may be. That, however, is the only true problem facing them.
To clarify, Russia has maintained atleast 4 warships in the area. This is nothing new.
I think this guy has been watching to many propaganda movies from the 50s. Stupid people like this really amaze me.
Have any of you actually seen the technological advances that Russia has? Their armor outclasses ours, their foot soldiers are on an equal footing to ours, they have absolutely MASSIVE oil reserves, just because they don't need to go attack other smaller countries like Iraq for the oil doesn't mean they're not a superpower.
We Americans are just brainwashed to think we're the "best", I'll tell you this, I do not want to see a war where Russia and the US are facing off. Would probably mean the end of the world as we know it.
As amusing as you might think it is, Russia still is a potent world power. They have tons of nukes and if the US and Russia went to war then it would be on a cataclysmic magnitude. On the other hand, if Russia and the US had similar interest and help each other they could do whatever they would please with the world.
The only reason why Russia is still brought up in conversations about "superpowers" is because the USSR wasn't that long ago and the have veto power at the UN. Everyone knows the real superpower of the world doesn't care about another countries veto powers
In this fast-paced globalized world, their shared goals mirror each other. We should not fear one or the other, but question the mirror showing us the same person in reverse. As time passes, will we actually know the difference.
Having nukes doesn't make you a world power. It just means you have the potential to do something retarded.As amusing as you might think it is, Russia still is a potent world power. They have tons of nukes and if the US and Russia went to war then it would be on a cataclysmic magnitude.

Russian military is hugely underfunded and had their issues with Chechnya.

Sunday NCAA Outlook for ACC TeamsPosted by Brad Jenkins (@bradjenk) on March 15th, 2015
Now that the ACC Tournament is in the books, all the resumes are complete heading into Selection Sunday. Here's an updated look at what we can expect to see when the field is announced tonight.
Each team is listed with its current overall record along with projected NCAA seed per ESPN's Joe Lunardi and CBS Sports' Jerry Palm.
- Duke (29-4, ESPN: #1, CBS: #2) As you can see, opinions differ among the experts regarding which (if any) ACC team will get a #1 seed and which will fall to the #2 line. Duke's ace in the hole is the fact that the Blue Devils own road wins over each of the other two primary #1 seed contenders, Wisconsin and Virginia. We predict that the Selection Committee will use that as a tie-breaker and reward Duke with the third-overall #1 seed, placing the Blue Devils in the South Region.
- Virginia (29-3, ESPN: #2, CBS: #1) The Cavaliers hope that the Selection Committee places higher value on their ACC regular season title than how the team looks recently with two losses in their last three outings. Justin Anderson has not looked sharp in his two games since returning and that may also influence things. If Wisconsin wins the Big Ten title today, look for Virginia to be the #2 seed in the East.

JP from Phoenix
October 28, 2007, 08:38 PM
I'd sell the sigma and either put improvements on some of my other guns or trade it in for something else. Thats sweet though, free stuff is always cool

Great! Congrats
No matter what they say about the Sigma, you can't say anything bad about a free one. I had a Sigma 40VE for a while and other than being picky about ammo and having a lousy trigger the gun wasn't all that bad.
Still I think if I won a Sigma I'd sell it and put the money towards other things.
October 30, 2007, 03:45 AM
Yeah that what we(me and my girlfriend) are going to do, sell it and put the money towards remodeling our bathroom:banghead:. I would like to equip my 10/22 with a heavy barrel and thumbhole stock but the bathroom needs to get done.

how much ya want for it :D

The term "Apocrypha" designates works not included in the biblical canon of inspired books though they resemble the contents and style of the Old and New Testaments. The Old Testament Apocrypha range in composition from the Third Century BCE to the Third Century CE. The New Testament books date primarily from the Second to Fourth Centuries CE, though some works may have been composed as late as the Seventh Century CE. The use and applicability of the term "Apocrypha", however, differ among Catholics, Protestant Christians, and Jews. Catholics use various criteria to distinguish canonical from apocryphal works. Canonical works trace their origins to the Apostles and their associates. Because they were known and used in the major …

Ginnifer Goodwin and Josh Dallas are living the fairy tale.
The Once Upon a Time costars stepped out arm in arm in Los Angeles on Sunday, the day after their wedding, looking ready for baby as they head to a family get-together.
Goodwin, 35, with a sizable baby bump, wore jeans tucked into boots and a knit top. And her new hubby still emanates Prince Charming, even in jeans and sunglasses.
The couple met on the set of the show, and Dallas, 32, told PEOPLE that he fell for Goodwin at first sight.
"It hit me like a blinding light," he said. "I thought, 'I'm in trouble now.' "

2009-10-01 - European kings of non-repentant supreme death black metal art BELPHEGOR, have uploaded the videoclip for the track "DER GEISTERTREIBER" right HERE!
The video was shot in Abtenau, Austria with director Walter Fanninger.
Helmuth stated: "The song is about the celebration on the 30th of April, better known as the Walpurgis Nacht, the occult celebrations on the mountain. It's the first time that we hired a professional camera team for a BELPHEGOR video, so the result is beyond amazing. We rented a cottage three days high in the mountains in middle of nowhere in the woods. There was nothing around. Just a lot of excess, alcohol, substances etc. Was a great intense time!"
The song was taken from the band`s upcoming album "WALPURGIS RITES - HEXENWAHN" to be released via Nuclear Blast on October 9th (Europe) and 20th (North America).

This is very good. I served it while it was still warm and it was cheesy and gooey. We really liked it.
With some of my own modifications, this was a huge hit! I doubled the recipe, adding a can of Rotel Tomatoes to loosen up the refried beans in food processor. I added a packet of taco seasoning to the cream cheese layer, and that was the magical layer everyone raved about! Topped with salsa, Monterey Jack cheese, and the olives. I did this in the crock pot, and it was AMAZING! Requests for the recipe are pouring in from my family reunion!
A very tasty layered dip. Would defintley make again.

Women's earnings up relative to men's in 2002
April 01, 2003
Median weekly earnings of women increased at a faster pace than those of men in 2002—3.9 percent versus 1.9 percent.
This faster pace was reflected in the earnings of white and black workers. Earnings of white women increased by 5.6 percent, compared with a 2.2-percent rise for those of white men. Black women's earnings rose 5.1 percent compared with a 1.2-percent gain for black men. In contrast, earnings for Hispanic men were up 3.4 percent from 2001 to 2002 while Hispanic women's earnings grew by 2.9 percent.
These data are from the Current Population Survey. For more information on labor market trends in 2002, see "U.S. labor market in 2002: continued weakness," by Terence M. McMenamin, Rachel Krantz, and Thomas J. Krolik, Monthly Labor Review, February 2003.

This tasted great! It was very easy to prepare and everyone liked it alot. I am sure I will be asked to fix it again.
Looking for a way to use up leftover Easter Ham from the freezer and came across this recipe, sure glad I did, very flavourful!!! Made half a recipe for the two of us. Just happened to have half a cabbage waiting to be used and some lovely little new potatoes. I used becel margarine and fresh parsley, the white wine gave it a lovely tang; turned out just great. DH loved it; me too and i will remember it next time I have left over ham. Thanks Bergy for another super keeper!!
This was definitely a great and tasty way to use leftover ham! I added a dash of red pepper flakes, just to fit our tastes but it really didn't need it. Thanks Bergy!
Oh my what a wonderful tasting dish. I had a head of cabbage that needed to be used and and left over spiral ham from Christmas. I picked this recipe. So glad I did
I used white cooking wine and only 1/4 cup of it. I cut my potatoes into bite size pieces. Will be making this again and again.
Was a little skeptical at first, but this recipe really surprised me. Followed the recipe with one exception, no potatoes. Definitely agree with "highplainsdrifter" in that it should be called a hash and took their advice and served it with a poached egg. My 9 yr old son was curious and asked for a taste, then another and finally got his own serving!
This is a great, simple recipe that requires little cooking skill and little prep time. I would definitely describe it more as a stir fry or a hash than a casserole. In fact, it is a great breakfast dish if you fry or poach a few eggs to go with it. My family traditionally eats cabbage with beef, and I found this recipe while searching for something to use up various leftovers in the fridge. It seems that most anything with garlic, onion, and wine is tasty, and this recipe is no exception. I made some variations, but like the original recipe enough to give it 3 solid stars. As my goal was to use up leftovers, I substituted red wine for white, and used rosemary instead of parsley. Also, I found that if you have some leftover cold baked potatos instead of raw ones, you can significantly reduce the cooking time and keep the cabbage from getting mushy. Anyway, good stuff, thanks for the idea!
Thanks for something new to do with ham leftovers and cabbage. I made the recipe mostly as is, substituting leftover sauce from the ham for the wine, as I didn't have any white on hand. This was very good, I will make it again.
Exellent recipe for leftover ham, change of pace from scalloped potatoes.
I added another 1/2-1 cup white wine plus a can of cream of asparagus soup. Plus, I seasoned with HERBAMARE. Does anyone else use this? It's my very favorite spice.

Convention of the Italian League for Combating Cancer
The Lega italiana per la lotta contro il cancro held recently at Milan its first national convention.
The paper on the first main topic, "Cancer Statistics of Italy," was presented by Prof. Alfredo Niceforo, who gave the results of the special inquiry instituted by the League of Nations on the number of deaths in Italy from malignant tumors. The results were grouped by the speaker under five heads: men—all types of involvement; women—breast involvment; women—uterus involvement; women—other localizations; women—total number affected. Metastases were noted in 38 per cent of the interventions in males; in 57 per cent in females; in 8 per cent in women—breast involvement, and in 52 per cent in women—uterus involvement. The average interval that elapsed after the surgical intervention before the metastasis appeared was 5.28 months in men and 8.04 months in women.

A small percentage of males with Klinefelter syndrome are diagnosed before birth. This might happen if a pregnant woman has a procedure to examine fetal cells drawn from the amniotic fluid (amniocentesis) or placenta (chorionic villus sampling). Most women who have these procedures are older than age 35 or have a family history of genetic conditions.
If you notice symptoms of Klinefelter syndrome in yourself or your son, see a doctor. Your doctor will do a thorough physical examination and ask detailed questions about symptoms and your (or your son's) health. Be prepared to discuss when you, or your son, reached certain puberty milestones, such as the development of pubic and armpit hair, growth of the penis, and increased testicle size.

Portal:Himalaya region
The Himalaya region
The Himalayan region is characterized by the massive mountain ranges of the Himalaya, the Karakoram, the Hindu Kush and a host of minor ranges extending from the Pamir Knot. The region is home to the nations of Nepal, Bhutan, the Indian states of Arunachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Sikkim, Himachal Pradesh and the regions of Tibet, Jammu, Kashmir, and Ladakh. The name is from Sanskrit himālaya, a tatpurusa compound meaning "the abode of snow" (from hima "snow", and ālaya "abode"; see also Himavat). Together, the Himalaya mountain system is the planet's highest and home to all fourteen of the world's highest peaks: the Eight-thousanders, including Mount Everest. The mountain ranges are the source of three of the world's major river systems, the Indus Basin, the Ganga-Brahmaputra Basin and the Yangtze Basin. The people of the Himalayan region are largely of Indo-Tibetan descent and distinctive religions include Hinduism and Tibetan Buddhism.

Darjeeling is a town in the Indian state of West Bengal. It is the headquarters of Darjeeling district, in the Shivalik Hills on the lower range of the Himalaya, at an average elevation of 2,134 m (6,982 ft). The name "Darjeeling" is a combination of the Tibetan words Dorje ("thunderbolt") and ling ("place"), translating to "The land of the thunderbolt." During the British Raj in India, Darjeeling's temperate climate led to its development as a hill station (hill town) for British residents to escape the heat of the plains during the summers. Darjeeling is internationally famous for its tea industry and the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The tea plantations date back to the mid 1800s as part of a British development of the area. The tea growers of the area developed distinctive hybrids of black tea and fermenting techniques, with many blends considered among the world's finest. The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway connecting the town with the plains was declared a World Heritage Site in 1999 and is one of the few steam engines still in service in India. Darjeeling has several British-style public schools, which attract students from many parts of India and neighbouring countries. The town, along with neighbouring Kalimpong was a major centre for the demand of a separate Gorkhaland state in the 1980s, though the separatist movement has gradually decreased over the past decade due to the setting up of an autonomous hill council. In the recent years the town's fragile ecology is threatened by a rising demand for environmental resources, stemming from growing tourist traffic and poorly planned urbanisation. (more...)

Duggar Dad Comes Out Against Transgender Girl Scout
"Our family loves Girl Scout cookies and I don't think allowing a boy in the Girl Scouts is a good thing," says Jim Bob Duggar. He'd rather vote for a third party candidate than Mitt Romney, he tells BuzzFeed.
LAURENS, S.C. — Unlike the presidential candidate he's endorsing, reality TV star and father of 19 Jim Bob Duggar has an opinion on the conflict over a transgender child in the Girl Scouts.
"Our family loves Girl Scout cookies and I don't think allowing a boy in the Girl Scouts is a good thing," Duggar told BuzzFeed after a Rick Santorum campaign stop in Laurens. Duggar and some of his children are on the campaign trail for Rick Santorum in South Carolina this week.
"I think the founders of the Girl Scouts would be truly upset to hear this direction," Duggar said, noting that his wife Michelle is a former Girl Scout troop leader. "If they're wanting to create a new scout program where girls and boys would join together, that might be an option. But whether somebody declares they're a boy or girl and can join either one — it isn't even logical and it goes against the core principles the group was founded on."
Asked about his voting plans if Santorum doesn't win the nomination, Duggar was conflicted. "I think Romney is just as liberal or almost just as liberal as President Obama," Duggar said. "He's trying to act like a conservative, but I don't think it's in his heart."
"I probably would look for a third party candidate, which would not be Ron Paul."

As far as business buzzwords go, the terms Big Data, data visualization, data structure, predictive analytics and business intelligence all get thrown around with the frequency of a used car salesman putting together his best customer pitch. In fact, when it comes to acquiring a business intelligence tool, you might hear the mention of these terms ad nauseam. That being said, if you're truly serious about implementing business intelligence technology into your workflow, then you need to be absolutely positive of the different initiatives that you want to fulfill.
Even if your business intelligence (BI) dashboard ends up looking professional and offers beautifully rendered graphs that you can use to wow your company's CEO, it won't mean anything unless you have the right data in the right dashboard. That's why Himanshu Sareen, CEO of Icreon Tech, has compiled a list of the best practices for choosing a well-designed business intelligence dashboard.

Slowly but surely, I am approaching the half way stage of my UI Snacks project. While I am not happy with the overall quality of my work, I am happy with the way things are going in general. Here are my thoughts on the experiment:
- Creating something I can be proud of on a daily basis has always been a struggle of mine and I most certainly am not satisfied with some of my illustrations. However, I am doing my best within my personal time constraints.
- I am happy with the improved speed at which I can now put together an icon or an illustration—during 160 days, I have improved my speed considerably which is a great bonus.
- Improved Sketch skills are also a big plus—I've taken my Sketch app speed and efficiency to a higher level.
- Sometimes, I can use a UI snack, or part of it, in my commercial work, which can be quite handy.
- Clients appreciate the fact I am adding to my skillset.
- I can recommend the experiment to everyone—doing something like this can only be a good thing.
Introducing: Goodies
As a small present from me to you, here is my Goodies page. It currently holds two .sketch files which I tend to use in my work. I'll update it with more goodies in the future.
Five Common UX Mistakes Web Designers Make
It's been a while since I wrote an article about common UX mistakes web designers make, but I failed to inform you, the reader. So here you go, the article is live on Toptal and it's called Are All Trends Worth It? Top 5 Most Common UX Mistakes That Designers Make. The article expands on the subjects I wrote about here, on my blog, and goes into detail how the mistakes in question can be avoided. I hope you'll enjoy the read. As always, feedback is more than welcome.
Stephen Anderson on interaction design
Love this quote from Stephen Anderson's UX Design, Role-playing & Micromoments:
Good interaction design is about attending to every moment that passes between a person and the device (or system, or service) with which he or she is interacting.
