I'm watching this thread and really find it interesting. Otzi, you are being a terrific coach and a great source of info.
My initial thought when I first saw it was - huh? What's this doing here? But now I can see the merit to it.
Calorie restriction. 10 days is nothing in the scheme of things. Even if we ignore the feast/famine lifestyle of Grok, there are some modern reasons why we might just naturally decrease our calorie intake: grief, deadlines, finals, other stressors. And, one of the videos on fasting (the one where the British man does 5:2 fasting) had a 101 year old man finishing a marathon, and he'd been "eating like a child" (his translator's way of explaining small portions and low calorie) all his life.
Just potatoes. I'm guessing (like many in this thread) that doing all carb or all protein or all fat would probably result in weight loss. I used to live on vegetable soup from 5:30 pm Friday night to 9:30 Monday morning almost out of necessity because of a job I had where I worked 40 hours in that timeframe. The veggie soup was from a place across the street - cheap, easy to get, and stood up well to cooling down. I was usually lighter on Monday morning. (No surprise there.)
Otzi, I'm wondering what you think of soup idea? Potatoes, small amount of carrots, onion, and celery. Rather than homemade bone broth, which I have no idea if one doesn't have a calorimeter how to know how much fat is in it, maybe a store bought decent non/low fat (ogodisaidlowfatonMDA) broth? Would this be the same type of thing? Do the onion and celery have too much fiber? The onion and carrot too much sugar? I'd really appreciate your input. Thanx.
As a note, I love mustard on potatoes. Reminds me of the potato knishes we used to buy off the carts.

A few weeks back, we had the privilege of cooking for a group of people who felt strongly enough about Virginia City's historic preservation to throw down $120 per plate. The dinner was part of the "Parties of the Year" series to aid in the ongoing restoration of the Fourth Ward School. It was held at the St. Mary's Art Center, originally the town's hospital and itself the beneficiary of much hard work and harder earned dollars.
As in the glory days of the Silver Barons, there was champagne and oysters, filet with truffles, and desserts with French names. Toni Tenille surprised everyone by showing up to help with the service.
Meanwhile, back at the Fourth Ward School, the Abraham Lincoln "Forever Free" exhibit was going on. The place was alive with students from the high school drama class, handsomely decked in period attire, preparing for their part of the show, which included re-enactments of Lincoln's speeches and debates over abolition.
And a few blocks away, the Piper's Opera House was tuning up for its musical production of Jekyl and Hyde, also designed to help finance its restoration. It was as if the whole town was steppin' out. That's when it hit me. There's a lot more to this place than meets the eye of the occasional visitor. There's community.
Another thing you wouldn't expect to find here in the middle of beef country is vegetarians, but we get them. The dish which follows includes two of the trilogy of early Mexican ingredients - squash and corn - the third being beans.
Bear in mind that before the arrival of the Europeans in the mid 1500s with their practice of raising animals for food, there wasn't much meat on the menu. With the exception of the unfortunate rabbit, fawn or fowl to wander into their sights, the natives of Mexico were for the most part vegetarians.
Chayote squash, known as merliton in the Cajun world, is light green and pear shaped. Although we use this casserole as a side dish for specials, it could be served with a salad and warm tortillas as a light lunch. In this case you may want to dress it up with a little pool of smoked tomato-jalapeño sauce - recipe follows.
Chayote and Corn Casserole
Serves 8 as a side
Preheat oven to 375
For the sauce
6 T butter
1 large yellow onion, diced.
3 fresh serranos or jalapenos, minced
4 cloves garlic, minced
6 T flour
2 1/2 cups milk
4 T chopped cilantro
1/2 t Mexican oregano
2 t salt, approximately
In a small sauce pan, melt the butter and sauté the onions, chilies and garlic over medium heat until soft. Add the flour and stir to combine. Continue stirring and cooking for a minute or two. Add the milk slowly, stirring until smooth. Bring to a simmer and cook for a couple minutes until thickened and smooth. Remove from heat, and add the cilantro, oregano and salt. Taste for salt.
For the vegetables
6 chayotes, about 3 pounds
4 ears corn, cut from the cob
1 1/2 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese
1 cups dry bread crumbs
1/2 grated Parmesan
1 ounce melted butter
Peel the chayote, cut in half lengthwise, scoop out the soft pit, and slice the squash as thin as possible. Using a 12" buttered casserole, put down a layer of the squash. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add a layer of corn then sprinkle with Jack cheese. Continue layering until all has been used.
Pour the hot sauce over the squash. Add a little milk if necessary to bring it even with the top layer.
The dish can be made up to this point and allowed to sit, covered, for a couple hours. Mix the bread crumbs and Parmesan with the melted butter and sprinkle over the casserole. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the chayotes are tender when pierced with a fork and the top is lightly browned and crisp. Serve immediately.
Smoked Tomato-Jalapeno Sauce
Makes about 3 cups
12 Roma tomatoes
1 small yellow onion
2 cloves garlic
3 jalapeno chilis
2 T Basalmic vinegar
1 T brown sugar
2 ounces cold butter, cut into pieces
Core the tomatoes and cut them in half lengthwise. Peel the onion and cut into 1/2" slices. Stem and seed the jalapenos. Place the tomatoes and onions on the rack of your smoker or charcoal grill. Place the chilis and garlic on a small piece of foil that has been pierced several times with a fork or knife and place the foil on the rack. Depending on what you're using for a smoker (a real smoker or a Weber type grill), shoot for a low temperature (180) to allow a longer cooking time. Use a small amount of wood-about one ounce. Cook until the skins begin to shrivel.
In a blender, puree the smoked vegetables along with about a half cup of warm water. Strain through a medium sieve (or similar strainer) into a small sauce pan. Add the Balsamic and sugar and bring to a simmer, skimming away any foam from the surface. Turn off heat and add the butter stirring constantly until incorporated. Taste for salt. The sauce will keep for 3 to 4 days refrigerated. Reheat slowly for service.

Most of the time, headphones serve as a necessary inconvenience. You need them to listen to your music, favorite podcasts, and to keep whatever it is you choose to listen to in your ears instead of broadcast out loud. But there's always a knot to be undone and a kink to be worked out. There's no need to deal with that when you have the Wireless Bluetooth Cloud Buds.
The only cord on these headphones is the one that keeps the buds connected. Everything else done without wires. There's nothing to plug in, and you can have 30 feet of untethered movement between you and your device while still getting crystal clear music.
For just $29.99—72% off the retail price—you'll want to grab these great buds while you can.

Most iPad accessory makers work tirelessly to design a product that echoes Apple's signature design. Griffin and Rail Yard Studios' Rail Artifact Stand does the opposite. Instead of melting away during use, its one of a kind design not only stands out, but in my opinion, steals the spotlight. Just as its name indicates, the Rail Artifact Stand is made from authentic early 1900's railroad pieces. From pitted steel to worn edges, every stand shows its history in a unique way… expand full story

Goose Creek High School football coach Chuck Reedy will have to replace an assistant before the start of next season.
Outside linebackers coach Brad Bowles has taken the top job at St. John's High School, replacing James Waring.
"St. Johns is a great opportunity," said Bowles, an assistant under Reedy since 2009. "They've had incredible success in the past. They have great kids, a great administration and a great football community. My goal is to be a part of restoring the pride on the island and helping the student athletes achieve their goals."
Reedy said he is happy for Bowles, and he expects other Goose Creek assistants to be courted by other programs in the future.
"We are very fortunate to have a number of talented coaches on our staff," said Reedy, whose teams have won 40 of their last 42 games. "Many on our staff will be head coaches in the near future and we are always proud and happy when one of them has the opportunity to run their own program. Brad has done an outstanding job for us. He is very organized, knowledgeable and energetic."
Last season, the Islanders finished 6-6 and lost in the opening round of the playoffs.
Bowles was the outside linebackers coach at GCHS for three seasons and was wide receivers coach the year before that. He also served as recruiting coordinator for the Gators.
"My time at Goose Creek has been awesome," Bowles said. "I am extremely appreciative of Chuck for giving me the opportunity to be a part of the staff. I have learned so much about the game. He essentially built the program from the ground up."
He also credited defensive coordinator Chris Candor and fellow assistants for helping him grow as a coach.
"The defensive staff that I worked with might be some of the top coaches in the state," he said. "Their teaching ability, planning and preparation, and the way they interact with the kids has all been influential to the development of my coaching philosophy. Chris is such a detailed guy, who demands excellence from the players, and focuses on every detail."
Bowles is a 2000 graduate of Science Hill High School in Johnson City, Tenn. and also earned two varsity letters from Kempsville High School in Virginia Beach.
In 2004, Bowles received a degree in physical education from East Tennessee State.

Runners are making their way to the Hilton Garden Inn in downtown Albany for packet pick-up for Saturday's big race.
Participants can go inside and get their number, bag and t-shirt as well as shop for some items they might need during the race like energy bars, sneakers and more.
Albany Convention and Visitor's Bureau Manager Rashelle Beasley says as of 8 p.m. on Friday evening, more than 1,400 runners have checked in, which is more than the total number of people who finished the race last year.
Beasley says the Snicker's Marathon is a huge event for Albany because it is bringing in people from 36 states as well as from outside of the country to our area.
While here, those visitors tour Albany and help the economy by buying food, souvenirs and more.
Beasley says if you didn't get a chance to pick up your information on Friday, organizers will be signing people in from 5:30 a.m. until the race starts at 7 a.m.

Excellent chocolate sauce. I used it on pound cake and ladyfingers. Made for Football Pool 2013
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh MY GOSH!!!!!!!!! What more could a chocaholic want? This sauce is truly divine! Rich, creamy, silky smooth, and so fantastic. I followed everything as per recipe, although I did use the microwave to melt butter and chocolate. So easy to make and the sauce is to die for. Just like a chocolate fudge sauce. I served with French Vanilla Ice Cream and it what just perfect. The family adored it but there is one downfall to this recipe ..... I am having problems with DS eating what I have left in the fridge......by the spoon! Can't blame him it is so delicious and fudgy cold as well...... ummm and how do I know you ask? Well ummmm ......ssssshhhhh...... It's my secret !!!! Thanks Bayhill, I won't forget this one, and if I do I am sure DS will remind me!!!
Made for Aus/NZ Recipe Swap #24. Excellent topping for ice cream and very easy to do. Thanks for posting this Bayhill!

|Major Groups > Gilled Mushrooms > Pale-Spored > Lepiotoid Mushrooms > Leucocoprinus birnbaumii
Leucocoprinus birnbaumii
[ Basidiomycota > Agaricales > Agaricaceae > Leucocoprinus . . . ]
by Michael Kuo
I receive many frantic e-mails about this little yellow mushroom, since it has a tendency to pop up unexpectedly in people's flower pots--even indoors! I have only seen it once, many years ago, before I began studying mushrooms in earnest. So I have no photos of my own, nor have I studied preserved specimens. Ordinarily this would mean I would not make a page for the species at this website, but since the thing is so distinct, and since so many people want to know about it, I have done so anyway, using readers' photos and combining data on its physical features from sources in my library. Would you like to help me study this beautiful little thing? Let me know if you'd be interested in preserving some of your flower pot's little yellow jewels and sending them to me so that this page could be more scientific and better documented.
Leucocoprinus birnbaumii won't hurt you, unless you eat it. It won't hurt your plant. It won't hurt your pets or your children, unless they eat it. There is no getting rid of it, short of replacing all the soil in your planter (and even then it might reappear). Since it makes such a beautiful addition to your household flora, I recommend learning to love it--and teaching your children to love it, too.
You might also impart the idea that mushrooms are very, very cool--but shouldn't be eaten. Perhaps your child would like to become an awesome and famous mycologist some day. I would love to encourage your child's interest in mushrooms by putting his or her drawing of Leucocoprinus birnbaumii on this Web page (at least temporarily). Here's a drawing from 8-year-old Daniel in Queensland:
Lepiota lutea is a previous name. There are several closely related species, including Leucocoprinus tricolor (with a brown cap center, pale yellow colors, and a chrome yellow stem base), Leucocoprinus flavescens (with a brownish cap center and smaller spores) and Lepiota fragilissimus, with an extremely thin cap and pale gills.
Ecology: Saprobic; growing alone, gregariously, or clustered in flower pots, greenhouses, and so on--or, in warm conditions, outside in gardens and other cultivated areas (often around stumps); also growing in hardwood and conifer forests, especially in disturbed ground areas (pathsides, etc.); outdoors in summer, indoors year-round; widely distributed in North America.
Cap: 2.5-6 cm across; oval when young, becoming broadly conical, broadly convex, or bell-shaped; dry; powdery to scaly; the margin lined or grooved nearly to the center; bright to pale yellow, often with a darker (but not brown) center.
Gills: Free from the stem; crowded; yellow to pale yellow.
Stem: 3-10 cm long; 2-5 mm thick; more or less equal above a slightly swollen base; dry; bald or powdery; with a fragile, bracelet-like, yellow ring that sometimes disappears.
Flesh: Whitish to yellowish; very thin.
Odor and Taste: Not distinctive.
Spore Print: White.
Microscopic Features: Spores 8-11 x 5-8 µ; ellipsoid to slightly amygdaliform; with a small pore; smooth; thick-walled; hyaline in KOH; dextrinoid. Basidioles inflated, brachybasidiole-like. Cheilocystidia to about 50 x 16 µ; lageniform, ventricose, or irregular. Pleurocystidia absent. Floccose material on cap surface composed of inflated, subglobose to pyriform elements 15-25 µ across.

Sun Yoon Wah Snow Beer @ Ipoh
It's impossible to run out of things to eat in Ipoh. But if you are looking for a place to enjoy a (grown up) drink like the locals do, then head to Kafe Sun Yoon Wah for snow beer, and a couple of dishes to go with it.
Yik Mun Tanjung Malim Pau Coffee Shop & Restaurant
I have probably driven past Tanjung Malim a few tens of times, but it was only last weekend that I decided to make a quick stopover to check out the town for some grub. Yik Mun is undoubtedly the most popular eatery in town - famous for their homemade steamed buns, coffee and Chinese-Muslim fare.
Yuk Sou Hin CNY Set Menu @ WEIL Hotel, Ipoh
With the opening of Yuk Sou Hin (玉寿轩) at WEIL Hotel, Ipohians now have the chance to savour authentic, contemporary Cantonese cuisine prepared by Chinese Master Chef Chung Ho Shi. Hong Kong born Chef Chung has an impressive professional background, having worked in various international hotels before helming Yuk Sou Hin. If you've been searching […]
WEIL Hotel – Contemporary Luxury Hotel @ Ipoh
Located at the heart of Ipoh, WEIL Hotel is the latest hotel to open in town. Its strategic location is perfect for anyone seeking a quick weekend getaway.
French Hotel @ Ipoh
Location is the best thing about French Hotel. This newly-refurbished boutique hotel is situated right smack in the center of Ipoh town and you could get to most places of interests (food wise) on foot. It costs about RM125 for a windowless, superior king room per night and I think it's fair as long as […]

Cowan Street Ayam Tauge's famous bean sprouts chicken is hailed to be the best in Ipoh and it has probably been blogged to death. But surprisingly many people are still not aware of this shop and they continue to patronize Onn Kee and Lou Wong. Just to be clear I have nothing against them because […]

The Undertaker is one of the most polarizing figures in WWE history, a future Hall of Famer whose incredible longevity and athleticism despite his large stature have made him one of the most respected and love wrestlers in the business.
Thus, it's no secret that he is dearly missed by WWE fans whenever he takes a hiatus or is sidelined with an injury. That has been customary over the last few years, however, and the number of injures that Taker has racked up seem to be inching him ever so closer to retirement.
Yet, we're always going to wish, hope and pray that The Undertaker comes back for one more run before finally hanging up the boots for good.
It appears, though, that the chances of that happening are getting slimmer by the day.
From F4Wonline.com (via SEScoops.com):
As for the Undertaker, there are no plans for him to return to television in the immediate future. At this point, WWE officials are hoping he'll be healthy enough in time to wrestle at WrestleMania 28 next April.
This probably isn't the news that Taker fans want to hear, but it really shouldn't come as much of a surprise.
The Undertaker has been quite injury prone over the last several years, as all of those years of performing at such a high level are finally catching up to him. As much as we want to see him back in the ring as a full-time competitor, it just doesn't seem feasible at this point.
How many more matches will The Undertaker wrestle?
Taker is getting old, his body is wearing down and he's likely got only one more Wrestlemania match in him. That's it.
So, instead of begging for The Undertaker to come back and wrestle night in and night out, perhaps we should just let the man wrestle one more match to extend his Wrestlemania streak to 20 and then ride off into the sunset.
He damn sure deserves to.

LEVELLAND - There's a clean spot on the wall behind suspended Hockley County Sheriff David Kinney's desk.
It may have been a painting, or a diploma, or even a family picture that hung in the spot until Thursday afternoon, but just as the decor of the office has changed, so has the man sitting in the county's top law enforcement official's chair.
"All I've heard is lots of encouragement and lots of people praying," said interim Sheriff Kevin Davis. "I'm very thankful for that."
Davis spent his first day on the job catching his staff up to speed after a Lubbock judge temporarily removed Kinney from office without pay following a lawsuit that claims he was incompetent and abused his power. County Attorney Christopher Dennis filed the suit Thursday.
While taking inventory of equipment and familiarizing himself with the department, Davis said he also accepted the resignation of two deputies.
Chief Deputy Scott Cross, who took the position after Gordon Bohannon was arrested and charged with participating in a major meth ring, resigned for personal reasons, Davis said. Deputy Jose Quntanilla, also charged in the drug case, tendered his resignation as well after receiving pay since his arrest on July 10.
Kinney on Friday denied the suit had any basis in fact, and said he was looking for an attorney to fight the case.
Transcripts of phone conversations gathered in the federal investigation of Bohannon and Quintanilla were used to as evidence in the civil case against Kinney with cooperation from the U.S. Attorney's office, Dennis said.
The suit accuses Kinney of incompetence because of the arrest of Bohannon and Quinanilla on charges of drug trafficking and other abuses of power.
"I totally deny any of these charges," Kinney told the Avalanche-Journal in a phone interview Friday. "They're not really charges, they're allegations."
Kinney has served as sheriff since January 2005 and was re-elected in November for a second four-year term. He has been employed by the department in some capacity for more than 20 years, according to court filings.
A restraining order filed with the suspension restricted Kinney from accessing property or talking with anyone that could be involved in the case.
A hearing on Aug. 24 will determine whether or not that order was necessary, a ruling Kinney said he would fight.
"Hopefully, I can get these things straightened out by then," he said. "I thought we had a free country here, but they've locked me down to where I can't talk to anybody."
Kinney said the tapes, which court documents say detail his involvement in the illegal arrest of a federal informant, provide no basis for the petition filed against him.
"I didn't do anything," he said. "I hope they play every one of those tapes."
Until then, Kinney said he will be looking for a job.
"I was not concerned because I didn't have anything to do with any of this stuff," he said of the investigation.
Davis wanted to reassure Hockley County residents that the remaining patrol force, nine deputies and himself, would continue to provide quality service. Lubbock police and the Texas Rangers also offered assistance as needed, he said.
"It's gonna work out," he said. "Just one day at a time."

Concepts of integration and sealing over are common clinical psychiatric parlance. Our experience studying and treating acute schizophrenic patients, primarily with psychosocial techniques, has emphasized the meaningfulness of these concepts. By studying the recovered patient's attitude toward his psychotic experiences, we have obtained material from which to formulate definitions of these concepts.
Integrators tend to be curious about their symptoms, regard them as part of their life's pattern, and gain information from them, resulting in a more flexible and variable attitude toward illness than patients who seal over. The latter have rather fixed, usually negative, views of their illness, and tend not to strive to understand their psychotic symptoms nor to place their psychotic experiences in perspective with their lives before and after psychosis.

OSHA News Release - (Archived) Table of Contents
OSHA News Release – Region 6
U.S. Department of Labor
Region 6 News Release OSHA-05-53-DAL
Tuesday, Jan. 18, 2005
Contact: Diana Petterson or Elizabeth Todd
Phone: (214) 767-4776, ext. 222 or 221
HOUSTON -- A DeSoto, Texas-based construction company's alleged repeated failures to properly erect scaffold equipment and follow safety standards at a Houston, Texas, construction site has resulted in proposed penalties totaling $128,000 from the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
OSHA cited J&R Landmark Construction Corp., a brick-laying company that employs about 105 workers, for three alleged serious and seven alleged repeat violations following an inspection by OSHA's Houston South area office that began July 2 as part of a local emphasis program aimed at preventing fall hazards in construction. At the time of the inspection, J&R Construction was a subcontractor at a worksite located at Briar Forest Drive in Houston. Employees were working on scaffolds without adequate fall protection equipment.
"Health and safety standards must be followed to save lives and prevent injuries," said Houston South Area Director Charles E. Williams. "This company has been cited on numerous occasions for the same violations, which warrants the high amount of the fines."
The alleged serious violations include failing to protect employees from fall hazards and failing to provide eye protection for workers exposed to eye and face injuries while cutting brick. A serious violation is one in which there is a substantial probability that death or serious physical harm could result from a hazard about which the employer knew or should have known.
The alleged repeat violations include failing to provide guywires or ties to prevent the scaffold from tipping over and planking; failing to provide guardrails on scaffolds; failing to provide employees with ladders for access; failing to properly deck the scaffolds; failing to provide hard hats as protective equipment, and failing to provide toeboards. OSHA issues a repeat citation when an inspection reveals a violation for which the employer had been previously cited, and where, upon re-inspection, a substantially similar violation is found.
Other companies owned by J&R Landmark's owner, Ramiro Rodriguez, have been inspected by OSHA seven times for similar violations since 1998, resulting in fines totaling $272,200 which the company still owes.
J&R Landmark Construction has 15 working days from receipt of the citations to comply, request an informal conference with the OSHA area director, or contest the citations and proposed penalties before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission.
Employers and employees with questions about workplace safety and health can contact OSHA's Houston South area office at (281) 286-0583. A toll-free hotline may be used to report workplace accidents, fatalities, or situations posing imminent danger to workers. The number is 1-800-321-6742.
Employers are responsible for providing a safe and healthful workplace for their employees. OSHA's role is to assure the safety and health of America's workers by setting and enforcing standards; providing training, outreach and education; establishing partnerships; and encouraging continual improvement in workplace safety and health. For more information, visit www.osha.gov.
U.S. Labor Department (DOL) releases are accessible on the Internet at <http://www.dol.gov>. The information in this news release will be made available in alternate format upon request (large print, Braille, audio tape or disc) from the COAST office. Please specify which news release when placing your request. Call (202) 693-7765 or TTY (202) 693-7755. DOL is committed to providing America's employers and employees with easy access to understandable information on how to comply with its laws and regulations.
