KPN to Cut Up to 14% of Dutch Workers on Mobile CompetitiElco van Groningen
Royal KPN NV, the biggest Dutch telecommunications provider, plans to eliminate as much as 14 percent of its workforce in the country over the next three years as a mobile-phone price war hurt earnings.
KPN will cut 1,500 to 2,000 full-time positions in the Netherlands, it said in a presentation today. The company projects annual savings of 300 million euros ($405 million) by 2016. Fourth-quarter earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization fell 29 percent to 581 million euros, missing the 631 million-euro average analyst estimate compiled by Bloomberg.
"We can't exclude forced job losses," Chief Executive Officer Eelco Blok said at a press conference in The Hague. KPN will offer fewer products and has already reduced "dozens of broadband products" to fewer than 10, he said.
The shares fell as much as 5.7 percent, the steepest decline since Oct. 17, the day after billionaire Carlos Slim's America Movil SAB withdrew a bid for the carrier following disagreements on price and corporate governance. The KPN foundation spent much of last year fighting off the takeover attempt as competitors pushed bundled phone and Internet services to win customers.
One-Time Charges
Quarterly earnings were restrained by one-time items including a provision related to the former KPNQwest joint venture with U.S.-based Qwest Communications, and weren't "that bad" otherwise, said Marc Hesselink, an analyst at ABN Amro Bank NV. "Underlying, the figures of mostly mobile and business disappoint though."
KPN traded 4.5 percent lower at 2.57 euros as of 11:35 a.m. in Amsterdam, giving the company a market value of 11 billion euros.
America Movil remains KPN's largest shareholder with a stake of almost 30 percent. Blok said he doesn't know whether the Mexican company plans to bid again after April 16, when a new approach is allowed.
In Germany, KPN agreed last year to sell its E-Plus division to Spain's Telefonica SA, and that transaction is pending approval by the European Commission.
"We have now put in place strong fundamentals at KPN and expect stabilizing performance towards the end of 2014," Blok said in a statement, projecting an increase in free cash flow next year.
E-Plus Sale
KPN reiterated that it plans to resume dividend payments from 2014 and that the sale of E-Plus should contribute to improvement of its financial profile. E-Plus is no longer consolidated in KPN's results after shareholders in October approved the 8.55 billion-euro sale of the business to Telefonica Deutschland Holding AG. The European Commission is scheduled to rule by May 14.
KPN is facing intensifying competition in the Netherlands, where cable operator Ziggo NV agreed last week to a full takeover bid by Liberty Global Plc. The transaction will lead to a combination of the networks of Ziggo and Liberty's UPC, which together will control about 90 percent of the Dutch cable network. Both companies also offer so-called triple-play services.
Because of the similarities between the companies in product portfolios, Blok said a level playing field should be created. "That can be done in two ways," he said. "One is that UPC/Ziggo is regulated in the same way as KPN. The other is that KPN is regulated the same way as UPC and Ziggo."

The No-Situp Ab Workout
3. Side Plank
Planks and side planks are a great exercise for core strength, improving hip issues, and helping people with lower-back pain. The side plank especially is a low-risk, high-benefit exercise.
To do a side plank:
1. Lie on your side. Put your top leg directly in front of your bottom leg. The heel of your top foot should be in line with tips of your toes of the bottom foot.
2. Take the elbow of the side you're lying on and prop yourself on your elbow with your elbow and shoulder stacked in a straight line.
3. From here rise up the hip that is on the ground and maintain a good neutral spine and brace hard.
4. Hold this position for as long as possible without losing form. Rest and repeat as necessary.

More Packers lawn signs available
Now you don't have to steal your neighbor's Green Bay Packers lawn sign. Time Warner Cable, which distributed signs after the team won the NFC championship, has restocked its inventory just in time for the Super Bowl.
Signs will be available Wednesday at the following TWC offices:
Cedarburg/Grafton (W61 N529 Washington Ave.); Plymouth (2209 Eastern Ave.); West Allis (1511 S. 108th St.); Lake Geneva (156 E.Geneva Square); Milwaukee (2323 N. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, Suite 1); Wauwatosa (Mayfair Mall, 2500 N. Mayfair Road); Greendale (Southridge Mall, 5300 S. 76th St.); Kenosha (1403 Washington Rd.); and in Racine (5212 21st St.). Supplies are limited.
Now all you have to do is find your lawn. (2)
Snow Joke: Weather ratings high
Predictably, the number of households using television rose Wednesday as snowbound area viewers checked the forecast before shoveling their way outside. Twenty five percent of households with TVs were using TV at 5:30 a.m., jumping to 50 percent by 9 a.m., to 65 percent at 6 p.m. and to 70 by 7 p.m.
The number was in the high 50s for the 10 p.m. news and stayed in the 40s until 11 p.m.
Presumably viewers tuned in for weather information. But also more people were watching TV because they couldn't leave the house because of the weather. During an average broadcast day HUT levels range from the teens to the 60s. There are 901,790 TV households in the designated market area.
Individual stations ratings climbed as well: WISN-TV (Channel 12) was the most watched station between 4 a.m. to 5 p.m.with an average 7.2 household rating; WISN-TV (Channel 12) won the 6 p.m. newscast with a 12.1 rating; and WTMJ-TV (Channel 4) won the 10 p.m. with a 9.3 rating. (2)
WITI Super Bowl spoof
WITI-TV (Channel 6) will roll out three Sportscenter spoofy promotional ads which will run during the Fox affiliates broadcast of the Super Bowl on Sunday.
Watch one of them below. The most alarming thing about it?
They've got Chicago Bears fans working at the station!
Darth Vader and other Super Bowl ads.
Super Bowl commercials give people with no rooting interest, or any kind of interest, in the teams playing something to do. This year, of course, Green Bay Packer fans will be focused on the game.
And so to help them - you - concentrate, I'll relieve some of the pressure people might be feeling about not caring about the ads, by unveiling a few here. The hype over pre-releasing full ads, teaser ads and bogus "rejected" ads on YouTube and elsewhere on line, has become as much a part of hooplah, as media day. And anyone who waits until Sunday to watch them, will be the last to do so.
This years ads are reported to cost $3 million for 30 seconds. »Read Full Blog Post(1)
The Scariest Thing I Ever Saw: Super Bowl Movie Ads
What movies are most likely to appeal to the Super Bowl audience? Judging from the upcoming films that will air ads before, during and after the game - they are male, fantasy and action centric.
Movie ads scheduled to air during Sunday's game, include: (1)
Highest rated Super Bowl ever
WITI-TV (Channel 6) earned a 59.7 rating for Sunday's Super Bowl telecast, in which the Green Bay Packers defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers. The rating is the equivalent of 538,00 households.
The station has said it was the highest rated Super Bowl in Milwaukee market history. An announcement that it was the most watched television event in history is due later today.
The game earned an 85 share, meaning 85% of the TVs being used at the time were watching the game. There are approximately 900,000 homes in the Milwaukee area television market. »Read Full Blog Post(12)
Did Charter Cable lose signal during Super Bowl?
Charter Communications Inc. cable lost its high definition signal of Sunday's Super Bowl game, according to sources.
One source said that the signal was lost "just before half time. They went down in the second quarter and stayed down for probably 40 minutes or longer. We could pick up the non-high def Fox channel but it was still frustrating."
Charter is the fourth largest cable operator in the US, with 5.5 million customers in 27 states. It has 537,000 customers in Wisconsin, most of whom - presumably - were watching the game.
Any Charter subscribers out there with similar stories? (12)
Were Super Bowl movie ads "Marvel-ous?"
In the heat of the moment - and seen through beer goggles - some of the ads during the Super Bowl seemed better than they were. In the light of the next day, it is apparent that they all stunk.
Only one, the Chrysler ad with Eminem, came close to being memorable. »Read Full Blog Post(6)
Green Bay Packers arrival now showing live
WITI-TV (Channel 6), WTMJ-TV (Channel 4) and WDJT-TV (Channel 58) aired the Green Bay Packers arrival live welcoming the Super Bowl winning Green Bay Packers back to Green Bay, live starting at about 1:50 p.m.

Happy Oscar Week!
The Oscars are the Vince Lombardi trophy of the film industry. And Sunday's Oscar telecast is its Super Bowl.
I'll be thinking and waxing about it all week; blogging and Tweeting daily, making picks in Friday's Cue, doing an online Oscar chat Friday at noon - you can go here to ask a question ahead of time - and watching and writing about Sunday's telecast for various platforms including print - how quaint! - for Monday morning.
And, I' ll be posting audio clips of interviews I've conducted with nominees, including Christian Bale talking and Natalie Portman, at noon daily all week long, starting today. »Read Full Blog Post
'Black Swan' Oscar nominee Natalie Portman talks 'Star Wars'
"Black Swan" Oscar nominee Natalie Portman had just turned 18 when "Star Wars: Episode One - The Phantom Menace," was released in 1999, which is when I talked to her, in the presence of several other reporters at an elaborate junket for and preview screening of the film.
As Queen Amidala / Padme, in the three prequels, she was the second female character of significance in the "Star Wars" universe - after Carrie Fisher's Princess Leia, who played her daughter in the original films. There was huge interest in the first prequel and I bought into it hook, line and light saber. After all the original films were a formative part of the world's pop culture iconography and vocabulary.
Revenge of the Curds: Daily Show on WI budget battle
Jon Stewart of "The Daily Show" took shots at both sides in the budget battle in Madison, calling protestors "a bunch of people wearing identical shirts" and calling Gov. Walker's plan to end collective bargaining for public workers "less of a fiscal sacrifice than a ritual sacrifice."
He derided comparisons to the protests in Egypt - saying those protestors risked being shot, while the Madison protestors risk "being caught in a drum circle" - and of Walker to the recently deposed Hosni Mubarak, saying that Walker earned 52% of the vote while "tyrants tend to poll in the high 90s."
Watch below.
The tragedy of Darren Aronofsky
I first talked to Darren Aronofsky, Oscar nominated director of best picture nominee "Black Swan," at the Sundance Film Festival in 1998 where he was named best director for his debut feature "Pi." During our chat he kept stepping out of the room to take phone calls as he negotiated the sale of the film.
"I totally remember that," he told me when we next spoke in 2000, also at Sundance, this time about his second film "Requiem For A Dream." "You were there when it sold. It was exciting." His career has sky rocketed since then, he also directed "The Wrestler," but his storytelling hasn't changed all that much.
Both those first two films were about obsession and addiction: "Pi" was about a man driven mad by his search for a mathematical pattern to the random chaos of everyday life and "Requiem" was a jittery and surreal tale of two heroin addicts, based on the novel by Hubert Selby Jr. »Read Full Blog Post
Oscar nominee Christian Bale is a "Psycho"
Christian Bale was caught in the wrong place at the wrong time doing the wrong thing - in front of a camera savagely berating a crew member during the filming of "Terminator: Salvation." Didn't take long for that tantrum to travel the world via the internet. This audio link alone collected 1.8 million hits on YouTube. The profane rant is not for the faint of heart. But if it revaled something about his hair trigger temperament, it also showed his workk ethic to be uncompromising, albeit bordering on fanatical.
And his dedication to his craft this year has earned him an supporting actor Oscar nomination on "The Fighter," which teamed him with director David O. Russell, who had a similarly famous meltdown while filming "I Heart Huckabees." Bale, a British actor who made his debut in Steven Spielberg's "Empire of the Sun," remains a prickly pear, reportedly demanding that interviews with him run in a Q & A format.
But when I spoke to him in 2000, at the Sundance Film Festival, for "American Psycho," he was friendly, approachable and still little known. In a few years, he would would become a household name as the star of "The Dark Knight" films. "American Psycho" was based on Brett Easton Ellis' novel, considered to be unfilmmable, about victimization of women by a psychopath whose weird compulsions included shopping and status. The film by Mary Harron was brutal and sexually graphic, but her intent was satiric cultural autopsy. She said she considered the film a portrait of the amoral jungle mentality of Wall Street and that Patrick Bateman, played by Bale, was repesented the alpha male mentality of that setting. »Read Full Blog Post
Is Oscar nominee Lisa Cholodenko gay role model?
Lisa Cholodenko said there is a little bit of her in "every character" she writes. Which is probably why they are lesbians. In "High Art," a young woman, played by Ally Sheedy, becomes involved with an older woman. In "Laurel Canyon," Frances McDormand experiments sexually with her son's fiance.
And in the Oscar nominated best picture, "The Kids Are All Right" - for which Cholodenko was nominated for original screenplay - best actress nominee Annette Bening and Julianne Moore, play lesbian parents of two teenagers.
She was loathe to talk the relationship between sexual preference and her films when I spoke to her at the Toronto Film Festival in 2002. But she did. Listen below. »Read Full Blog Post
Gov. Walker on Meet the Press
Wisconsin governor Scott Walker will appear on NBC's "Meet the Press," Sunday, to talk about the state's budget crisis and the Madison protests.
Maybe he'll even make his Oscar picks! Walker will be in Madison for the appearance.
"Meet the Press" is hosted by David Gregory. It airs at 9 a.m. on WTMJ-TV (Channel 4).

Why Oscar nominee Geoffrey Rush is a nice guy
I can confirm that Geoffrey Rush, nominated for an Oscar as supporting actor in "The King's Speech," is a nice guy.
I spent a half hour with him in 2007 at the Toronto Film Festival talking about "Elizabeth: The Golden Age," and confused him with Bill Nighy throughout. Both appeared in "Pirates of the Caribbean" At World's End," and I asked Rush - twice! - what it was like to wear the octopus like prosthetic in the film that was worn by Nighy.
Perhaps recognizing the glazed look in my eyes from seeing too many films, he gently rebuffed me instead of kicking me to the curb. »Read Full Blog Post
First Oscars go to Alice, Inception
The first twoOscars of the night went to "Alice in Wonderland," for art direction and "Inception" for cinematography.
The awarding of the technical awards as the first of the night is one of the changes made in the ceremony, held Sunday in Hollywood. The first award generally goes to a supporting perfrormance.
The awards were preceded by clips from "Gone With the Wind" and "Titanic" which also won the categories, and were handed out by Tom Hanks.
Co hosts Anne Hathaway and James Franco began the show in an amusing but uneven "Inception" parody in which they interacted with all the best picture nominees, and ended with them driving off in the car from "Back to the Future." Since both of them are actors, it's no surprise that they can act funny .
Melissa Leo wins supporting actress Oscar
Melissa Leo won the Oscar for supporting actress, at the Academy Awards ceremony Sunday in Hollywood. Leo played the bleached-blond chain-smoking mother to the boxers played by Mark Wahlberg and nominee Christian Bale in the best picture nominee "The Fighter."
Leo was previously nominated for best actress in 2009 for "Frozen River."
The award was given out by a spry 95-year old Kirk Douglas. Leo made a bit of a spectacle of herself, during her speech, with rambling remarks, an expletive that was deleted, and walking off stage using Douglas' cane. "It's about selling motion pictures and respecting the work," she concluded. »Read Full Blog Post(3)
"Social Network," "Kings Speech" wins screenplay Oscars
Aaron Sorkin won the Oscar for best adapted screenplay, for "The Social Network." It was the film's first award of the night. In his speech he said he felt pride to accept "the same award that was given to Paddy Chayevsky 35 years ago another movie with the word 'Network' in the title." The original screenplay award went to David Seidler for "The King's Speech." Both films are considered frontrunners for best picture. He dedicated the award to "all the stutterers in the world. We have a voice. We have been heard."
Christian Bale wins supporting actor Oscar
Christian Bale won the supporting actor Oscar as the charismatically jaded junkie in "The Fighter." In his remarks he introduced Dicky Ecklund, the real life character he portrayed. Melissa Leo previously won supporting actress for her role in the film, and included an expletive in her remarks.
"I'm not going to drop the F-bomb like she did, but I did plenty before," he said, referring to video of him savagely berating a crew member during the filming of "Terminator: Salvation."
The nominees included Kenosha native Mark Ruffalo, for his role in "The Kids Are All Right."
Inside Job wins Oscar for best documentary
Charles Ferguson's film about the economic collapse "Inside Job," won the Oscar for best documentary. It was presented by Oprah Winfrey. He brought a serious note to the ceremony by noting that in the three years since the collapse not a single financial executive responsible has been tried.
Ferguson previously won for the Iraq war documentary "No End in Sight." (7)

Forensic expert questions motive in Heitholt death
By Associated Press • Apr 17, 2012
An expert witness hired by convicted murderer Ryan Ferguson is questioning a police theory that former Columbia Daily Tribune sports editor Kent Heitholt was killed during an attempted robbery.
Forensic pathologist Dr. Larry Blum testified Tuesday at a Cole County hearing on Ferguson's latest bid for a new trial. Blum said an autopsy showing Heitholt died of strangulation and a blow to the head suggests the murder was not motivated by robbery.
Heitholt was killed in November 2001 as he walked to his car in the Tribune parking lot.
Ferguson was convicted in 2005 of killing Heitholt and is serving a 40-year sentence for second-degree murder and robbery. His high school friend, Chuck Erickson, was also found guilty in the case.

NSA sued over surveillance by Wikimedia & more
The NSA may be used to lurking in the shadows and quietly reading our emails, but the ACLU and Wikimedia Foundation aren't willing to let them stay that way, filing a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the government agency's actions. The suit, filed today in the US District Court for the District of Maryland, takes issue with NSA "upstream" surveillance which, it's argued, needlessly and intrusively gathers huge quantities of text-based messages sent and received by innocent people. That, the ACLU insists, is an infringement of both First and Fourth Amendment rights, among other things.

the c2 is said to support gapless.
as a note, I listen to audio books with my d2+ and despite lack of gapless, you really cant hear the track changes, most audio books are designed to be listened to without a player that support gapless so they put the "gap" where somebody stops talking to take a breath or pauses for a moment.
I use my sandisk sansa fuze 8gb(with 16gb card) for audio book as well, with OF no glapless but its seen as one of the better audio book players(audible and overdrive supported)
with rockbox it dosnt support DRM audio books but has gapless, again tho i have never seen a need for gapless with audio books, and another option is you could just join the files into 1 large file.

The Cowon J3 and S9 both are gapless btw to answer your question. Not sure about the X7 but I don't know why not. The D2 and D2+ are gapless as well if you rockbox them.

the problem with d2/d2+ rockbox is its incomplete AND for audiobooks rockbox dosnt support DRM at all, so your stuck either stripping the drm somehow or only using audio books from palaces that offer them drm free, and the most popular audio book services are NOT drm free saddly.
emusic is, you grab mp3cd's via sites like audiobookstand and copy those off the cd to your player tho.
saddly audiobookstan chooses to use overdrive as their distrobution platform and overdrive prefers WMA with DRM to other formats(some books do come in other formats, its just less common)
c2 "should" work with drm services, if it dosnt the users need to email the support and let them know that the c2 fully supports the use of drm music(checked with cowon myself).
BTW: I HATE DRM....but as an audio book fan, I have to deal with it and stripping it off of files (or finding alternate sources)
EDIT: note, i just found that one of my audio books backs up 5-10 seconds between tracks(5-10sec of audio from the previous track) this is a bit annoying, but it would be even worse with true gapless......i know because i tested it on my fuze....gonna have to figure out the exect ammount of time it backs up between tracks and remove that little hunk of time from each track......ugggg......the things we go thru to listen to a good book

S9, J3 & X7 are all gapless
I have all three (don't ask me how that happened). All are gapless with the latest firmware, at least for flac files. Can't say about other file types because I only use flac. My original D2 was not gapless, and that was annoying because I have lots of mixes that flow from one track to the next.
I read many complaints about the X7 not being gapless, but I cannot detect any hesitation between seamless tracks. For the price, the X7 is by far the best, although the screen isn't as nice as the S9 & J3.

Avicii is quite unique, if I had to classify most of his stuff I think it would be Electro / Dance, sort of...
This is a great prog house/ trance song.

The origins and growth of the Decatur Gun Club parallel that of the clay target itself, and the games created to hone and test shotgun shooting skill. Shotgun sport shooting with live pigeons and later, glass balls existed in the U.S. from the early 1800's. But the first "clay pigeon" and "trap" to throw it were not developed until about 1880 by George Ligowsky. William Brett From Decatur was the second manufacturer of clay targets in the U.S., which he called the "Decatur Red Bird". Considered the oldest shotgun shooting sports club in Illinois, the Decatur Gun Club was founded soon after clay targets were invented. Chan Powers and Bert Hildebrandt were two of the mentors of the club, first located near East William Street Road and 22nd Street. In the early years, the club occupied sites in the Hess Park area, the Wyckles Corner area, the Macon County Fairgrounds, and an area west of the Fairgrounds before finding it's home of the past 61 years at the north end of Faries Park.

$9.2 billion. Billion. That's 9 billion and then some. That's enough to buy 16,666,667 Furbies! It's also the forecast amount of US social media advertising revenues for 2016, up from the $4.6 billion estimate in 2012. According to our sources, social 'native' ads are expected to surpass display in growth within the forecast period, capping out at about a $3.85 billion spend in 2016. That's a lot of Furbies… With
The Compete Weekly Pulse
So, in recent news, Facebook released a commercial. What do y'all think? You'll hear a lot of people talk about mobile these days—about its capabilities, about the benefits and revenue streams behind game layers, about its potential—but according to an article in Digiday mobile social media marketing hasn't taken off yet. As evidence, the writer challenges anyone to think of "a great mobile social marketing campaign." Do any come to
The Weekly Compete Pulse
Marketing is about standing out. Sometimes. Mostly it's about translating a message across a medium in a promotional fashion, but what happens when marketing gets in its own way? This is often the case in brand extensions, where quixotic gimmicks like Cheetos Lipgloss are created to draw attention back to a brand but actually cause a consumer to simply shudder. AdAge's John Parham recently put out a guide to extending

'The Following' Sneak Peek: Spoilers, I suppose.
Mike Weston (Shawn Ashmore) is breaking bad, y'all!
OK, so The Following fan favorite isn't exactly going to the dark side in Monday's all-new episode, but he is pulling away from the FBI and going rogue with Ryan Hardy (Kevin Bacon) and Max (Jessica Stroup) when he finds out that Joe Carroll (James Purefoy) has a man on the inside helping him. (Lesson: everyone is a follower. You're probably a follower and don't even know it yet.) The trio "joins forces in this sort of rogue unit that's really acting under no authority at all," Kevin Bacon teases in an exclusive sneak peek at the Fox serial killer thriller's Feb. 24 episode, "Fly Away."
"In the interest of trying to find Joe Carroll, we take the law into our own hands," Bacon continues.
Their tactic? Using Luke (Sam Underwood), one of the psycho twins, who they are hoping will lead them to the diabolical duo of Joe and Lily (Connie Nielsen). And Lily is not exactly thrilled when she receives a threatening call from Ryan, telling him, "If anything happens to my son, there will be no end to your suffering." (queen tbh) Yikes. But Ryan has a tempting offer for Lily: he'll give Luke back to her if she gives up Joe. "It's going to be interesting to see who's more important to her," writer Dewayne Jones says. "Her son or the love of her life."
But we have doubts that Lily will be able to give up on one of her beloved sons. "She is one of those mothers who has this unconditionality. Because she is who she is, she definitely sees them probably to a certain degree as an extension of her own self...as this type of personality will do, she sees them as mirrors of herself," Connie Nielsen recently told us. "So she loves them vehemently and obsessively so."
The Following airs Mondays at 9 p.m. on Fox.
there's a video @ the source.
Haters gonna hate, I'm loving the season so far ♥ The new characters are way more interesting and the ~survivors of S1 are more interesting now as well.

Good to see you here Jonny!
I'm on a high protein, low to moderate fat and carbs diet.
I am just curious to what type of diet everyone is on?
Low fat, high?
High protein?
Low carbs?
Good to see you here Jonny!
I'm on a high protein, low to moderate fat and carbs diet.
Large, how many grams do you eat per pound of body weight?
I try to eat 1 - 1 1/2 grams per pound.
I actually have a hard time consuming this much!
I only eat 1g of protein per pound of bodyweight. When I'm "on" that doubles, of course. Most of the time I stick to a moderate carb, high protein, low fat diet. I've found it to work best for me. No carbs after late afternoon workout works really well. If you stick to that for 3-4 weeks you WILL start to see ripped abs...assuming you haven't seen em before...hehe.
High protein, moderate carbs, low fat.
high protein
low carbs
medium fat

I am trying to put on some weight, so here are some estimates, I am not using any supps either, so it is kinda hard to get in a lot of calories off food alone
3500 calories
280 g protein
85 g fat
480 g carb
[This message has been edited by Time + Patience (edited 12-05-2000).]
Hey Time+Patience,
Can you post what your meal plans are?
I don't use supplements either so I was wondering how you eat so many calories.
MEAL 1- 2 yolks, 4 whites, oatmeal, tuna, milk
MEAL 2- PB+J sandwich, apple, milk
MEAL 3- 12-14 oz ground beef, and some additives, to make taco's, 3-4 tortilla's, some spaghetti
MEAL 4- 12-14 oz chicken, 1 cup rice
MEAL 5- PB+J, some ramen noodles, tuna
And I will eat some snacks throughout the day, and a lil extra of something, but it hovers around 3500 calories, 270 g protein, 100 g fat, and 500 g carbs.
They say 1 to 1 1/2 grams per bodyweight but I also have a hard time consuming that much. Lately I'm having a hard time just getting 1/2 gram per bodyweight
What about MRP's, bars, etc... Anyone using any?
Seems like people bring back random old threads for no reason, so I thought I'd add to the fun by bringing back the oldest thread I could find - from December 5, 2000.
I'm on an isocaloric diet. 33/33/33 macro split. Last time I entered the info into fit day it was 157g of fat, 378g of carbs (44g of that is fiber), and 363g of protien.
The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...

Mark June 18th on your calendar.
That's the day the National Press Club in Washington, DC will give centre stage to the man behind one of the sleaziest smear campaigns ever perpetrated against a US presidential candidate.
Larry Sinclair has for months been blathering on his blog and in a YouTube video that Barack Obama has a dark secret his supporters wish would just go away. He says Obama likes to sleep with men.
Difficult to do, but in case you missed it, here's a little rundown of his claims:
- Barack Obama and Larry Sinclair had sex in a Chicago hotel room in late 1999 while Sinclair was on parole.
- Barack Obama supplied the cocaine and crack cocaine he smoked while Sinclair performed oral sex on Obama
- Donald Young, the gay choir director at Obama's former church, contacted Sinclair in December, 2007 shortly before Young was murdered. Sinclair says Young told him he had a similar relationship with Obama.
- Sinclair now claims to be getting death threats; cancel the press conference or get shot.
With the possible exception of The Cleveland Leader which points out Sinclair failed a polygraph test, the mainstream press has completely ignored him. So has Barack Obama, but leading up to Wednesday's presser and beyond, you have to wonder for how long he can hold off.
There have been so many rumours circulating about Obama and his wife – Obama's a Muslim, Obama's book contains racist remarks, Obama's hiding his birth certificate, Obama's wife has been seen on video calling people "whitey" from a church pulpit, and other trash – they've set up a website to fight the smears. They even ask readers to send in new rumours they've heard so they can address them.
What's notable is they still have yet to mention Sinclair. But with more than 1.25 million hits on the Sinclair blog and hundreds of thousands having seen the YouTube video, they can't deny nobody's heard of it.
A number of prominent liberal blogs have said the National Press Club is simply feeding the troll by taking Sinclair's 3000 bucks and booking his room. Thousands have already signed a petition asking the NPC to cancel the event.
I hope the press conference is held and I hope Obama does get around to Sinclair. There's a risk that the ranks of Sinclair's deluded fans and followers will grow in giving this guy the limelight, but if you've set up a website to counter rumours and allegations only to ignore the worst, it will be viewed as running away from the issue or pretending it doesn't exist. Obama has to defend himself.
Besides, Sinclair may be renting a pulpit and floor space and hoping the cameras and scribblers show up, but he must know that going to the press is a double-edged sword. If they do decide to run with this story, playing up Sinclair's dubious past is the most likely angle they'll take. Sinclair's police wanted poster on charges of theft and forgery will surely be included.
But if the world does turn out to be flat and Sinclair's allegations somehow prove to be true, Obama should be shunned and banished from the stage forever, but not for taking drugs and having gay sex. What country on earth would want to have as its leader someone with such horrible taste? Have you watched that video? Surely if Obama was bent in that direction and could have his pick of lovers and rent boys, he could do one hell of a lot better than Larry Sinclair.

There's a joke in this negative space, I just know it...
I'm looking for fun things to do with a soda machine sized nook. Our office had, until recently, a soda vending machine (the wide, squattyish kind). The machine is now gone, and I've heard that we'll be getting a new one (switching from a good-ol'-boy-friend-of-a-friend deal to a real Coke distributor). Until then, there's a "hole" in the side of the hallway that my whole workplace walks past every day. It's probably 5 feet wide, maybe 6 or 7 deep. [more inside]

Moooved to ask
Anybody have a clue what's going on at BovineUnite.com? Billboards started showing up here in the Baltimore area a week or so ago. The site is registered locally, but the execution of the site seems too good to be just some local prank. So far, the only Google reference to the site is a Craigslist ad looking for people to travel around Maryland wearing the cowsuit. What are they advertising? Skim milk? Chick-Fil-A?

Question on Ebay policies in regard to a silly auction
Recently on eBay, I put up for auction something I think is an obvious joke. Naturally, I've already received a question asking me something that, if answered honestly, I feel would give the joke away. Sort of. You know, it's the whole power-in-myth thing. The only way I can describe it short of posting the URL is that it's something I've created (I thought that was obvious in the picture), but given certain current zeitgeist, the impression is that it happened naturally or under strange circumstances. I checked eBay's policy page on this, but wasn't satisfied. I'm not trying to piss anyone off or get in trouble, I'm just trying to make some comedy (and maybe a little money). How creative can I get with my description?

If jQuery were a beautiful woman I would marry it. I say that because I keep coming across these amazing jQuery plugins that I believe absolutely any website can use to add a splash of interactivity - not because you can actually marry JavaScript libraries. The latest that caught my attention is Flip, a plugin for jQuery that essentially "flips" elements of your website in four directions (bottom to top or left to right and vice versa). The options this jQuery plugin has are very interesting as well. Designers and developers can define the content of the flipping box (works with HTML, text or a jQuery object), the direction they want that content to flip, the background starting and ending color as well as the speed.
