New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - August 30, 2000, New Braunfels, Texas Food Wednesday, August 30, 2000 IB Eating on the run? Make a plan to avoid diet disasters Patricia Anderson RASOR As women, we already know the importance of a nutritious diet and its relationship to feeling and looking our best. Yet, how' many of us practice what we know? Healthful eating intentions J; often get pushed aside in the course of ll a busy day. Eating on the run doesn't have to be a I hazard of a harried schedule — if a few i easy precautions are taken. Here's ;[ advice on how to manage eating on the i; run. Tempting Pitfalls 1. Attempting to save time by skip- i; ping meals will backfire. This time-sav-;• ing strategy usually stimulates gorging ; in the form of a single large meal at the ii end of the day. 2. Relying solely on frozen dinners • for good nutrition is a mistake. Most ;■ frozen entrees are not complete meals. They usually lack key vitamins such as f A and C and are low in fiber. Be sure !, to include fresh fruits and vegetables as ? a part of meals. 3. Cutting back on supermarket shop-; ping to save time w ill only leave J kitchen cupboards bare and cause a J; daily quandary over what to eat for dinner. Ironically, regular grocery shopping saves time by keeping cupboards stocked with all the essentials and eliminating the need for last minute trips for a missing ingredient. Have a plan. Not only will this save money, but it will help guard against \ the temptation of vending machines ■J and coffee carts. If the day is over-scheduled, plan easy snacks to help get through the day, rather than hoping to grab a bite somew here. Be sure to eat breakfast or a midmorning snack. Several studies have demonstrated that eating breakfast is key for optimal mental performance. Running on "empty" encourages brain drain. , Go no longer than five hours without *1 eating. Prolonged hunger creates a one-\l track mind — the food track. You're *• likely to think only of food. ♦; Eat small snacks or mini-meals II throughout the day. Several snacks «• spaced throughout the day can take the ti place of one or even two meals (while small snacks can help curb between-?*• meal hunger). Snacking is a great solution as long as we don't forget to watch fat, sugar and calories. Nowhere is it written in stone that the only healthful way to eat is to have three meals a day. Regardless of the number of meals you ^ eat, include in your diet two to three £» servings of low-fait dairy products; two & servings of low-fat meats or dried S, beans and peas; three to five servings of fruits and vegetables; and six to 11 servings of w hole grain breads, cereals and pasta. (Patricia Anderson Rasor is a Comal County Extension agent.) www.herald-zeitung.com Special to the Herald-Zeitung It's still not too late for that summertime picnic. Labor Day weekend and tailgate parties present the perfect opportunities for packing that getaway lunch or dinner. "The key to a perfect picnic is simplicity, which is easily achieved by filling your basket with a variety of domestic cheeses, breads, w ines and seasonal fruits," said David Rosengarten, host of the Food Network's "In Food Today." "Its the versatility of these ingredients that makes them so appealing," Rosengarten said. Perk up an afternoon picnic with Turkey Parmesan-Stuffed Pita Sandw idles, a combination of fresh tomatoes, flat-leaf parsley and zesty Parmesan mayonnaise. A crisp, non-oaked Savignon Blanc is a perfect partner. And, for a refreshing accompaniment for any sandw ich, try a Swiss Cheese, Ham and Pear Salad with Mustard-Caraway Vinaigrette with a glass of off-dry Chenin Blanc. Don't forget to add Texas wines to your list of must-haves for your picnic. The Texas Wine Month Trail kicks off during the first weekend in October. The trail hosts 16 participating wineries throughout the Hill Country with maps available to provide directions and tour and tasting schedule information. Find a copy on the web site at www.texaswinetrail.com. The Honeybaked Ham Company offers the gourmet gallery of sandw iches when it comes to putting together that perfect picnic sandwich. The Honeybaked Ham and Roasted Red Pepper Pan Bagna places ham slices, garlic cloves, Kalamata olives, red bell peppers and goat cheese all on a sourdough roll. For dessert, the Washington Apple Commission says now is the time to enjoy mildly sweet Gala apples. Originally from New Zealand, Gala, a mid-to-late season apple, is a cross between Kidd's Orange Red and Golden Delicious. Pale to golden yellow w ith red stripes, Gala is fragrant and mildly sweet. Its crisp texture makes the variety exceptional for eating out of hand and in salads. For the real sweet tooth, try the Honeybaked Ham Company's version of Caramel Brownies. For a picnic brunch, try Hollow Honey Beehive Bread by Fleishmann's Yeast. It is almost too pretty to eat. As always, keep food safety in mind when packing a picnic. Store food in proper carriers that keep hot foods hot and cold foods cold. Never leave food out for an extended period of time. TURKEY PARMESAN-STUFFED PITA SANDWICHES David Rosengarten, host of Food Networks "In Food Today " I cup mayonnaise 6 tablespoons of fresh Parmesan cheese, finely grated 1 tablespoon of capers, chopped 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice Freshly ground black pepper to taste 8 pitas w ith pockets, each about 4 inches in - diameter I 1/2 pounds of turkey breast, thinly sliced Tomato slices Flat-leaf parsley For Parmesan Mayonnaise: Combine the mayonnaise in a mixing bow I w ith the Parmesan cheese, capers and lemon juice. Blend well. Add freshly ground black pepper to taste. Place in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. Cut oft'small strip from the top of each pita so that you have access to the pocket. Divide the mayonnaise and the turkey slices among the pita pockets. Fill each pocket with tomato slices and plenty of flat-leaf parsley leaves. Refrigerate. For a picnic, remove from refrigerator and pack in a cooler. Makes eight sandw idles. Preparation time is 15 minutes. SWISS CHEESE, HAM AND PEAR SALAD, with Mustard-Caraway V inaigrette David Rosengarten, host of Food Network's "In Food Today " For the salad: 12 ounces of Sw iss cheese slices, each slice about 1/8 inch thick 12 ounces of boiled ham slices, each slice about 1/8 inch thick I pound of firm pears (about three mediumsized pears), peeled and cored Freshly ground black pepper to taste For the dressing: 5 tablespoons of Dijon mustard 8 teaspoons of white w ine vinegar 5 tablespoons of vegetable oil ( like canola) 8 teaspoons of water I teaspoon of caraway seeds 4 teaspoons of parsley leaves, very finely minced Salt Cut slices of Swiss cheese and ham into one inch squares. Slice each pear into six wedges, then slice each wedge lengthwise into four slices, and halve the slices to form smaller wedges. In a large salad bowl, toss together cheese, ham and pears, mixing well. Mix in pepper to taste. For the dressing, place the mustard in a separate mixing bowl. Whisk in white wine vinegar in a thin stream; this should slightly thin out the mustard and make it creamier. Whisk in vegetable oil in a thin stream; the dressing should be thick and creamy. Slowly add the water, between four to eight teaspoons, to thin the dressing out; be careful not to add too much, or the dressing might separate. Add caraway seeds and parsley. Mix well. Add the dressing to the salad, mixing thoroughly. Season to taste w ith salt. Makes eight servings. Preparation time is 15 to 20 minutes.See PICNIC/3B Above, get creative when making picnic sandwiches such as the sandwich above made with Honeybaked Ham and Turkey Parmesan-Stuffed Pita Sandwiches. For a picnic brunch, try Fleischmanns Yeast Hollow Honey Beehive Bread. Photos submitted Cattlewomen join food safety campaign Special to the Herald-Zeitung With the month of September designated as "National Food Safety Month," Hill Country Cattlewomen will promote the United States Department of Agriculture's theme of "It's safe to bite when the temperature is right" by educating on and encouraging the use of food thermometers when cooking meat, poultry and egg products as well as casseroles and leftovers. Consumer behavior research shows that cooking by color is just one of the ways consumers typically judge whether or not food is " done." Consumers said they also "eyeball" the food, go by recommended cooking times and trust their experience and judgment. The only problem is, those methods might be inaccurate. "Color is misleading and should not be relied on to indicate a safely cooked product. Meat or poultry color can fool even the most experienced cook. US DA research shows that one out of every four hamburgers turns brow n in the middle before it is safely cooked," said Ruth Ann Lemmerbrock of Harper, education vice president for Hill Country Cattle Women. "Using a food thermometer is the only way to tell that food has reached a high enough temperature to destroy harmful pathogens that may be in raw food," Lemmerbrock said. USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service statistics show that currently less than half the popula tion owns a food thermometer and only a small percent of consumers (3 percent) use one often when cooking small foods like hamburgers, pork chops or chicken. Food thermometers help ensure food is cooked to a safe temperature, prevent overcooking (which reduces flavor) and takes the guessw ork out of preparing a safe meal. "Food thermometers are not just for checking the safety of a Thanksgiving turkey," Lemmerbrock said. "They should be used year round, every time you prepare hamburgers, poultry, roasts, chops, egg casseroles, meat loaves and combination dishes." A w ide variety of reliable food thermometers are available in grocery and kitchen supply stores, and many are inexpensive. "And today's thermometer technologies make checking the temperature of 'thin' food - like hamburgers or chicken fillets — a piece of cake. It only takes a few seconds," Lemmerbrock said. "Its not complicated, its worth the effort, and their cost is minimal when considering your family's safety. This is especially true for people who are high-risk for foodbome illness, including young children, people over 65 years, pregnant women and people w ith chronic illnesses." For information on different types of thermometers and their uses, check out w w w.fsis.usda.gov/thermy or call the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline, (8(H)) 535-4555 (TTY: 1-800-256-7072).Water conservation tips for outdoor use To avoid excessive evaporation, use a sprinkler that produces large drops of water, rather than a fine mist. Sprinklers that send droplets out on a low angle also help control evaporation. Source: Comal County Extension Office ;

I'm No Anti-Vaxxer, But the Measles Vaccine Can't Prevent Outbreaks
The recent outbreaks of measles in Canada and the United States came as a shock to many public health experts but they wouldn't have to Dr. Gregory Poland, one of the world's most admired, most advanced thinkers in the field of vaccinology.
The measles vaccine has failed, he explained two years ago in a prescient paper, "The re-emergence of measles in developed countries." In that paper, he warned that due to factors that most haven't noticed, measles has come back to be a serious public health threat. Thankfully, in that paper and elsewhere he also spelled out in no-nonsense fashion what now needs to be done.
Dr. Poland is no vaccine denier. Not only is he among the harshest and most outspoken critics of the "irrationality of the antivaccinationists," he is also one of the strongest proponents for vaccines and the good that they can do. As Professor of Medicine and founder and leader of Mayo Clinic's Vaccine Research Group, one of the world's largest vaccine research organizations; as editor-in-chief of the peer-reviewed scientific journal, Vaccine; as recipient of numerous awards; as chair of vaccine data monitoring committees for pharmaceutical giant Merck; as patent holder in various vaccines processes; as someone who enjoys special employee status with the Centers for Disease Control and the U.S. Department of Defense and as someone who has sat on every federal committee that has dealt with vaccines, no one can accuse him of seeing vaccines from a narrow perspective.
And he sees the need for a major rethink, after concluding that the current measles vaccine is unlikely to ever live up to the job expected of it: "outbreaks are occurring even in highly developed countries where vaccine access, public health infrastructure, and health literacy are not significant issues. This is unexpected and a worrisome harbinger -- measles outbreaks are occurring where they are least expected," he wrote in his 2012 paper, listing the "surprising numbers of cases occurring in persons who previously received one or even two documented doses of measles-containing vaccine." During the 1989-1991 U.S. outbreaks, 20 per cent to 40 per cent of those affected had received one to two doses. In a 2011 outbreak in Canada, "over 50 per cent of the 98 individuals had received two doses of measles vaccine."
Dr. Poland noted 15 U.S. outbreaks between 2005 and 2011 and 33 in Europe in 2011 alone, involving more than 30,000 known cases. Meanwhile, the "UK has declared measles once again endemic.... such outbreaks result from both failure to vaccinate, and vaccine failure."
People's failure to get vaccinated is deplorable, Dr. Poland often stresses. But the more fundamental problem stems from the vaccine being less effective in real life than predicted, with a too-high failure rate -- between 2 per cent and 10 per cent don't develop expected antibodies after receiving the recommended two shots. Because different people have different genetic makeups, the vaccine is simply a dud in many, failing to provide the protection they think they've acquired.
To make matters worse, even when the vaccine takes, the protection quickly wanes, making it unrealistic to achieve the 95 per cent-plus level of immunity in the general population thought necessary to protect public health. For example, 9 per cent of children having two doses of the vaccine, as public health authorities now recommend, will have lost their immunity after just seven and a half years. As more time passes, more lose their immunity. "This leads to a paradoxical situation whereby measles in highly immunized societies occurs primarily among those previously immunized," Dr. Poland stated.
The measles vaccine's inadequacy doesn't end there, however. It "cannot be administered to those who are immunocompromised, who have allergies to vaccine components, or who are pregnant [among other limitations, leaving] a large enough segment of the population susceptible and unprotected from measles such that cases will continue to occur."
The answer, according to Dr. Poland, lies in our genes. Because of their genetic predisposition, some people will not respond to the current measles vaccine, even with additional boosters. By the same token, the genetic predisposition of others makes them susceptible to harm from the measles vaccine, leading to public wariness, including among the well educated. What is needed, suggests Dr. Poland, is for the public health establishment to accept that the current measles vaccine has so many drawbacks as to make it unworkable, and get on with the job of developing next-generation vaccines.
This next generation vaccine technology, which his Mayo Clinic group is helping pioneer, marries vaccinology with genomics to create personalized, rather than one-size-fits-all, vaccines. Through this new medical discipline of "vaccinomics," a term he dubbed, medical science will not only have the wherewithal to finally achieve the decades-long dream of eradicating measles and other diseases, he believes, but will also do so at lower cost while addressing the concerns of the educated public.
As I will discuss in part two of this series, vaccinomics is no pie-in-the-sky fantasy but possibly the next big coming thing, well worth pursuing, and well worth the investment in its development that will be required.

Your newborn should get this shot even before leaving the hospital, and receive another dose at one to two months and a third at six to 18 months. The vaccine protects against an incurable, liver-infecting virus, hepatitis B, which can be passed to a baby during childbirth if the mother is infected. This virus spreads through contact with blood or other body fluids (sharing toothbrushes and utensils can put you at risk). Soreness at the site of the shot, or a slight fever, is the most common side effect, according to Gabrielle Gold-von Simson, M.D., assistant professor of pediatrics at NYU Langone Medical Center in New York.
The DTaP vaccine protects against diphtheria (a germ that can form a gray or black film in the throat), tetanus (an infection that can cause muscle spasms so strong they can break bones), and pertussis (a highly contagious disease that causes a severe, uncontrollable cough, known as whooping cough). Five vaccine doses are given to children at two months, four months, six months, 15 to 18 months and four to six years. (And boosters at age 11 or 12 and then every 10 years.) DTaP may be combined with other vaccinations to reduce the number of shots needed. "Now, it's DTaP with hepatitis B and the polio vaccine. So, it's five in one," Dr. Gold-von Simson says.
This combo shot protects against three viruses: measles (which causes high fever and a body-wide rash); mumps (which causes face pain, swelling of the salivary glands, and sometimes scrotal swelling in boys); and rubella or German measles (which can cause birth defects if the infection occurs during pregnancy). The first shot is given at 12 to 15 months of age and once again between the ages of four and six. MMR is sometimes combined with the chickenpox vaccine into one shot (brand name ProQuad). "All these different preparations are designed to reduce the amount of shots the pediatrician has to give," says Dr. Gold-von Simson.
Chickenpox, a highly contagious rash that many people remember from childhood, is caused by the varicella virus. A varicella vaccine was first licensed in 1995 and now spares future generations this itchy misery. Chickenpox infections can be especially dangerous in adults who don't have immunity from the vaccine or haven't had it in childhood, and can also lead to shingles, an extremely painful blistering rash. The shot is given to children at 12 to 15 months and again between four and six years. The vaccine can cause soreness at the site of the shot, fever, and, in some cases, a mild rash.
"Haemophilus influenza type b is the bacterium that causes meningitis," says Dr. Gold-von Simson. Meningitis, an inflammation of the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord, is particularly dangerous for kids under the age of five. Hib vaccines are generally given at two, four, six, and 12 to 15 months of age. Depending on the vaccine used, the six-month shot may not be needed. Fever, swelling, and redness at the site of the shot are potential side effects.
Polio vaccine is "such a success," says Dr. Gold-von Simson. "Because of the vaccine, there are no more cases (of polio)." There are no more in the United States that is. The virus hasn't been eradicated worldwide, so kids still get the IPV, or inactivated polio vaccine, which is a shot containing killed virus. Polio is bad news, and can cause paralysis and even death. Children are given the IPV at two months, four months, between six to 18 months, and then again between the ages of four and six years.
This vaccine, known as PCV13 (brand name Prevnar), protects against 13 types of Streptococcus pneumoniae, which are bacteria that can cause all sorts of mayhem, including meningitis, pneumonia, ear infections, blood infections, and even death. A total of four shots are given to kids (at two, four, six, and 12 to 15 months of age) to protect them against the germs, known collectively as pneumococcal bacteria. The most common side effects of the vaccine include drowsiness, swelling at the site of the shot, mild fever, and irritability.
Flu vaccinations are given each year starting in the fall. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends them for kids ages six months or older, although they aren't required for school attendance. (Connecticut and New Jersey require the vaccine for attending child-care centers and preschool.) Common side effects from the vaccine include soreness, redness, or swelling at the site of the shot. Fever and aches may occur too. "If you have an egg allergy, you shouldn't have the influenza vaccine," says Dr. Gold-von Simson.
The rotavirus vaccine (RV) (brand names RotaTeq, Rotarix) is given to children at two and four months of age. (RotaTeq is also given at six months.) The vaccine protects against a virus that is the most common cause of severe diarrhea and vomiting in young kids worldwide. About 55,000 children in the U.S. were hospitalized each year due to rotavirus before the vaccine was licensed in 2006. It is not required for school attendance. The vaccine is in liquid form and given by mouth to babies. It may make them a bit more irritable and can also cause mild diarrhea or vomiting.
Kids can catch hepatitis A from sharing food or drinks or by putting contaminated food or objects in their mouths. It's a viral infection that affects the liver, and can cause a number of symptoms, including fever, tiredness, jaundice, and loss of appetite. Children ages 12 through 23 months generally get two doses of the Hep A vaccine, with a minimum interval of six months between shots. Some states require the vaccine for school attendance. Soreness where the shot was given, headache, and loss of appetite are the most common side effects of the vaccine.
This vaccine, known as MCV4 (brand name Menactra), protects against meningococcal bacteria, which can infect the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. MCV4 is recommended for kids at 11 or 12 years of age, and anyone between ages two and 55 who is at increased risk of infection (people with certain health conditions, military recruits). Teens starting college should be vaccinated with MCV4 before going to school if they didn't previously get the shot. (Freshman living in dorms are at increased risk of infection.) A little pain at the site of the shot is the most common side effect.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine (brand names Gardasil, Cervarix) is given in three doses over a six-month period, and is approved for girls between ages nine and 26. While there are over a hundred types of HPV, this vaccine protects against two sexually transmitted types that are the most common causes of cervical cancer. Gardasil also protects against two types that cause genital warts and is approved for boys between nine and 26 as well. The vaccine works only if given before an infection, so doctors recommend it for kids well before they could become sexually active. Although most states don't require HPV vaccination, many are considering mandating it for preteen girls.

The Senate voted Thursday evening for the first time ever to repeal President Barack Obama's signature health care law, passing the measure 52-47.
The bill will now head to the House, where it should win easy approval from the Republican majority.
Congress will then send the measure, which also strips federal funding for Planned Parenthood, to Obama who will veto it.
This marks the first time the Republican controlled Congress has ever sent a bill to repeal Obamacare to the president's desk.
In a statement, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), who has been relentless in his efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act, said the vote represented a "significant step towards repealing every word of Obamacare."

Tuesday Night Titans
this wiki
Tuesday Night Titans (abbreviated TNT[1]) was a weekly professional wrestling program, produced by the World Wrestling Federation, that aired on the USA Network from 1984 to 1986.
This format is best remembered for being a loose parody of a standard late-night talk show, with host Vince McMahon and "sidekick" Lord Alfred Hayes conducting in character interviews with WWF wrestlers and participating in skits. Later in the run, Gene Okerlund replaced McMahon as host.
The program was named after the WWF's then-parent company, Titan Sports. It was taped at the Studio One facilities in Owings Mills, Maryland, a suburb of Baltimore.
Episodes of TNT have recently been re-aired on WWE's subscription video-on-demand service WWE 24/7.
Memorable moments
- Then-WWF champion Hulk Hogan introduced his protein drink, which everyone on the set liked with the exception of Lord Alfred Hayes, who vomited immediately after he drank it.
- Roddy Piper playing Ebenezer Scrooge in a takeoff of Dickens' A Christmas Carol.
- Mr. Fuji and Don Muraco did a parody of Miami Vice called Fuji Vice. Fuji and Muraco went on to produce skits like Fuji Bandito and also performed live on Titans a comedy skit that notably and humorously features Fuji messing up lines (including how about some tropical stuff instead of topical stuff)
- George Steele undergoes electroshock therapy in order to cure his speech problem, but only manages to say "How now, brown cow?".
- Dr. "D", David Schults accidentally firing a loaded gun while showing his collection to Vince McMahon and Alfred Hayes.
- Fred Blassie bringing a live chicken onto the set and boasting that Kamala would eat it live on the air. A cutaway shot was immediately shown—after Vince McMahon tried in vain to stop it—of feathers flying out of Kamala's mouth (to illustrate Kamala's kayfabe chicken dinner).
- During a segment with Piper as a guest, a replay is shown of Piper's Pit where Piper struck Jimmy Snuka in the head with a coconut, after which Piper defends his actions and eventually slaps Hayes before storming off the set.
- In a segment promoting André the Giant's upcoming "$15,000 Bodyslam Challenge" match vs. Big John Studd at WrestleMania, a replay is shown of the "Haircut Match" (where Studd and Ken Patera beat André into unconsciousness before helping Bobby Heenan cut his hair). McMahon attempted to talk about a stipulation wherein André would retire if he failed to slam Studd. A visibly annoyed André tried to decline the stipulation but when McMahon pressed on, André grabbed McMahon by the throat and told him to back off on the "retirement" stipulation and vowed he would slam Studd at Wrestlemania. A noticeably upset Andre walked off the set afterwards.
- During a segment with Randy "Macho Man" Savage and Miss Elizabeth as guests, a delivery man arrives on the set to deliver a package to Elizabeth. Inside: roses, packed with turnbuckle stuffing (indicating the sender, George "the Animal" Steele).

Less class loaded - and less classes/features you need to worry when setting up and maintainig is what I meant by footprint - Jetty is around 0.5M I think. The fact that we have features for everyone is nice - but a developer doesn't need clustering or APR, and a production server doesn't need the old connector, the simple realm or the even the jasper compiler. It's more about beeing simpler for everyone - by providing the functionality they use. And no - it doesn't require any major refactoring - just small tweakings. I understand this doesn't help for JBoss - but tomcat != jboss. As for JMX - I think we do have a lot of things exposed, and adding more is quite easy. I think part of the problem is that we may have too much :-), and most generic JMX tools are not that good when you have too much data to browse. IMO organizaing a bit the information and maybe providing simpler interfaces would help. Having a minimal set of features in the base package doesn't mean you can't have a lot of features, and it doesn't mean it's much harder to add features. In a production environment it's the same - either you remove all the components you don't need or don't understand ( and might break something ), or just add the components that you need. Think about Firefox versus Mozilla. We are in exactly the same situation, just on server side :-) It's funny that JBoss does have most of this capability already - so I understand Remy not wanting to reinvent the wheel :-), but I don't think he can deny that this is a good thing to have.

For The Hater Raters
Jealously is such a terrible thing
So easy to feel but what does it bring?
It just hurts yourself and sadly others;
Safe to say: you weren't raised by my mother.
She would never stand for such nonsense,
She couldn't let her children be so dense.
So come, rate this a point five or a one,
And maybe you will think that you have won -
But it's a silly game you are playing.
So basically, this is what I'm saying:
When these fine wordsmiths are one day published
Each word you write will still be complete rubbish

If you want to write for a living then you need to—and I mean doggedly—set yourself up to write. Sounds easy, right? It isn't, at least not for most of us. There's carving out time. There's finding a physical space, someplace quiet without distractions. There's finding inspiration, and there's also learning and perfecting the craft. Not to mention that beyond this, there's finding someone to read what you've written and, hopefully, monetizing your efforts. Here are a few writing tips for becoming an author.
Authors unfamiliar with the book publishing industry can sometimes stumble on the path to publication by not understanding the definitions and roles of people in editing, production, distribution, and sales. By having clarity on the function and purpose of service companies and freelancers, authors can be smarter about hiring the right help.
All of November you were on the clock to complete your book for NaNoWriMo. If you succeeded (WOW!) you're basically a superstar. Congrats! And after you spent an entire month lovingly crafting the perfect manuscript we know you're eager to get it published.
I love the economy of publishing: a writer takes an idea and creates a product (the writing-the-book part), perfects the product (the editing-the-book part), and then prints the product (the finished-book part that readers pay to read). It's one of the purest forms of capitalism.
by Julie-Ann Harper, Managing Director and founder of Pick-a-WooWoo Publishing Group and Authors Wish
No manuscript should reach published form without first being edited by someone other than you. Many self-publishing authors are working with limited budgets, and many will choose to overlook the editing process, but they do so at their peril. Don't ever make the mistake of thinking that your writing is so 'spot on' that you don't need editing; everyone needs to be edited, and the author who believes he or she is the exception to this rule is usually the most in need. If you want your writing to be taken seriously, help ensure that by having it properly edited first.
by Porter Anderson (@Porter_Anderson) The Hot Sheet
In an exchange with a London-based self-publishing author lately, I was given an outline of how some indie writers use beta readers and colleagues rather than professional editing and proofreading services. I'd been writing about Reedsy's offerings for authors, developed in smart association with IngramSpark. This writer was focused on demonstrating to me that it can be far less expensive to go without formal edits, and many indies—understandably!—would like to ease the costs of professional edits.
by Ellie Maas Davis, owner of Pressque
Ellie Maas Davis shares frequently asked questions and answers about the book editing process based on the way she runs her business.
by Ellie Maas Davis
Before an indie author with a book can be paired with an editor, there's something called an editorial review. This is an assessment that helps self-publishers choose what level of editing their manuscript needs—and if it needs editing at all.
by Jane Friedman (@JaneFriedman) The Hot Sheet
In every profession, there are little details that reveal the time, attention, and care you've put into your work. For independent authors and small presses, paying attention to these details can make a favorable impression on potential customers, especially those inside the trade—booksellers, librarians, and others who are intimately familiar with publishing standards.
By Ellie Maas Davis of Pressque
How do you find the one? The one editor, that is. Finding an editor that will bring out the best in your book can be a bit like finding that person that gives you butterflies. Dating and finding an editor can be daunting. The below should be considered in order to make finding "the right" editor a breeze.

Our Most Advanced Sauna
High Tech Health's Transcend line of saunas include everything that makes our Thermal Life line of saunas famous, and more. From our use of only premium materials, to our air-circulation design and state-of-the-art heaters, all High Tech Health saunas include everything necessary for the most advanced sauna detoxification possible. That is why High Tech Health saunas are recommended by more MDs and other health practitioners than any other sauna.
100% Poplar Wood
Poplar is the superior wood of choice in saunas for health-minded people. Poplar wood does not outgas any chemicals or have strong, objectionable odors making it superior to cedar, spruce, hemlock, and basswood for individuals addressing health needs related to toxicity or those with allergies, chronic disease, or chemical sensitivities. Poplar is the wood recommended by toxicologists for clinical or home use of therapy saunas used for medical purposes.
There is absolutely no plywood or particle-board in High Tech Health saunas. Nearly every other sauna made uses at least plywood in the roof and floor. Plywood and particle-board offgas formaldehyde, which is a carcinogen.
Even the wood inside the walls which cannot be seen is also Poplar. Every other sauna we know of uses spruce or hemlock inside the walls because it is cheaper.
Poplar is a sustainable wood typically taking about 50 years to grow, compared to a cedar tree which needs 200 to 350 years.
Lowest Total EMF
There is no point in exposing yourself to EMF if you don't have to. Virtually all other infrared saunas expose you to high magnetic fields, high electric fields, and if that wasn't enough, some saunas even have Wifi or Bluetooth transmitters in them. Even the so-called "ultra low" EMF saunas do nothing to lower the high electric fields in them (we think that is pretty dishonest).
Your Transcend sauna will expose you to the LOWEST total level of EMF of any sauna available:
Magnetic Field Mitigation
Electric Field Mitigation
Bio-Resonance Heaters™
Our infrared heaters are famous for their proven detoxification, high reliability, and high power efficiency. In addition to detoxification, our infrared heaters are known for cardio-vascular benefits, pain relief, relaxation, skin health, and aiding in weight-loss among other things. And our heaters do not emit near infrared so you do not need to worry about any of the risks associated with near infrared, such as harm to your eyes.
Fresh-air Fan
This High Tech Health exclusive feature maximizes oxygen and minimizes carbon dioxide in the cabin. This may seem like a small feature, but in the enclosed space of a sauna, carbon dioxide levels do rise rapidly and it is important to keep the body in balance to maximize the body's ability to detoxify itself. Without a fan, the stuffy air in other saunas can contribute to a feeling of claustrophobia.
Pioneer® AM/FM/CD-Player
Enjoy premium sound while relaxing in your Transcend sauna. This CD-player supports playing MP3 and WMA music from CD-R discs, as well as connecting any other source of music, such as an iPhone, to its auxilliary input.
Superior Lighting & Chromotherapy
Standard in every Transcend sauna is perhaps the best lighting available in any sauna. 96 bright, long-lasting, and energy-efficient LEDs provide plenty of light for reading or enjoying the color-light therapy. Controlled by a remote that takes easily-replacable AAA batteries (not those annoying watch batteries typical of flimsy credit-card-style remotes) you can set the brightness and color to match your mood, or set it to cycle between colors. Whatever you choose, the Transcend lighting provides as much light as you could want.
Built-in Ergonomic Backrest
Every Transcend sauna comes with an integrated ergonomic backrest so you do not need to buy anything extra to ensure your comfort. You control its height during installation so you can be sure its located in the most comfortable position.
Dual Touch-Sensitive Controls
A full control panel with touch-sensitive buttons is located both on the inside and outside of the Transcend sauna making it convenient to prepare your sauna for use. Cheaper control panels use "bubble buttons", which arent as robust. Its important to have controls on the outside of your sauna -- many companies make a lower priced product by eliminating a full control panel on the outside of the sauna, but this means you need to get inside the sauna to turn it on as well as everytime you want to check its temperature to see if its ready for use. Since High Tech Health saunas are used in clinics world-wide, our saunas must provide an easy way for doctors to see the settings.
No-Lift Assembly™
The Transcend sauna has no latches on the front or sides enhancing its clean appearance. Normally, this leaves only two choices for putting together a sauna: 1) fasten the walls together at the top and not make a solid connection between panels, or 2) use a key and keyhole system to securely lock the sides of the walls together. Number 2 is most common but requires a panel to be held in the air while 3 connection points get lined up. This can be a very frustrating and tiring process.
New in the Transcend sauna is a method that provides the secure connection of the keys without requiring a panel to be held in the air! We call it No-Lift Assembly™. We know not all of our customers are going to be comfortable with a difficult assembly process, so we have made it as easy as possible while providing a product that is very solid when it is assembled. We even made the roof as light as we could so it would be easier to lift into place.

Ever since those classical Greeks lost their leverage, religion and sex haven't always had such a great time together. To wit: the Catholic Church has traditionally had some issues with women using any form of birth control. Well, guess what—turns out Catholic women don't care: 98 percent of them use it anyway.
A new report from the Guttmacher Institute (an institute seeking to advance sexual and reproductive health through research, policy analysis and public education), shows that "only two percent of Catholic women, even those who regularly attend church, rely on natural family planning."
The report shows that women who do not want to become pregnant use contraception methods like the pill, or intrauterine devices.
These stats put Catholic women in line with the reported birth control behavior of protestant and evangelical Christians, as well as women practicing other religions and American women in general.
"In real-life America, contraceptive use and strong religious beliefs are highly compatible," Rachel Jones, the report's lead author, told Reuters.
Trends in birth control show that religion is carrying ever less weight over women's reproductive and birth control choices.
Do you think religion should play any role in the choice to use birth control?

A business or management degree can be a springboard to huge things, helping grads secure high paying, high prestige jobs at big banks, hedge funds, and consultancies. Generally speaking, the better the university, the more chance of getting to Goldman or Bridgewater Capital.
Copenhagen Business School has been chosen as the only Nordic seat of business education on QS's annual ranking, the latest version of which was released on Wednesday, including some interesting data about which universities provide the best education in business and management.
CBS managed to rank ahead of some of the most prestigious universities in the US, as well as National University of Singapore.
A university's ranking is based on the institution's reputation with academics and employers, and the number of research citations the school gets per paper published in a specific discipline - in this case, business and management.
Check out the highest-ranked universities for getting a degree in business and management below:
19. Columbia University — New York-based Columbia has one of the best business and management degrees on earth through its central New York campus. It climbed from 22nd in 2016.

T=17. University of Chicago — Climbing two places from its ranking of 19th in 2017, Chicago's business school has produced famous alumni including the founder of Oracle Larry Ellison.
T=17. New York University — Beating Columbia once again, NYU is officially the best place in New York City to do a business and management degree. Students of business at the university attend the prestigious Stern School of Business.
16. University of California Los Angeles — UCLA is steadily climbing QS' ranking for business and management, climbing one place this year, having jumped five spots between 2015 and 2016.
15. National University of Singapore — The highest-rated university based solely in Asia, students of business and management at NUS can expect a good job after graduating. Its reputation amongst employers is sky-high, according to QS.
14. Northwestern University — Northwestern, close to Chicago in the northern US, has jumped eight places from 2016's ranking. Famous alumni of the college include James Allen and Edwin Booz, who went on to found consultancy Booz Allen Hamilton in the early 20th century.

13. Copenhagen Business School — Denmark's most prestigious business school has stood still in this year's QS best universities for business and management degrees.
12. HEC Paris — HEC is dedicated to teaching subjects around business, management, and finance, and that specialism tells. The university has climbed two places from 14th in 2016.

11. Universita Commerciale Luigi Bocconi — Bocconi, based in Milan, Italy, provides the second-best business and management degree programmes of any university in a non-English-speaking country. Unfortunately, it has slipped since 2016's ranking, when it was 10th.
10. University of California Berkeley — Climbing one place from 2016, Cal Berkeley is the second most prestigious business and management degree on the West Coast of the USA.

9. London School of Economics and Political Science — LSE is better known for producing politicians and economists (27% of all the Nobel Prizes in Economics have been awarded or jointly awarded to LSE alumni, current staff or former staff) but its business school is also hugely successful.
8. University of Cambridge — Last year Cambridge ranked 7th, this year it drops one place. The university teaches these degrees in the Judge Business School, named for Sir Paul Judge, a founding benefactor of the school.

text: News & activitiesMajor activitiesHonors ceremonies Honors ceremonies According to Article 42 of the Constitution, the President may, in accordance with the law, confer honors and decorations. Meanwhile, Article 1 of the Medals Act provides for the conferral of decorations on ROC citizens in recognition of their contribution to national or social development, while decorations may be bestowed on foreigners in order to promote friendly ties. The ROC has five types of civilian orders, including the Order of Brilliant Jade with Grand Cordon, the Order of Dr. Sun Yat-sen with Grand Cordon, the Order of Chiang Chung-cheng with Grand Cordon, the Order of Propitious Clouds, and the Order of Brilliant Star. The Order of Brilliant Jade with Grand Cordon is worn by the President, who may also award it to foreign heads of state (usually at ceremonies prior to the commencement of state banquets). Decorations personally conferred by the President are usually handed out at ceremonies held in the President's Hall, the Taiwan Heritage Room, or the Auditorium, all of which are located on the third floor of the Presidential Office Building. Protocol officers lead the recipient of a decoration and persons attending the ceremony to their seats in the designated ceremony hall after their arrival at the main entrance to the Presidential Office Building. As a show of respect, everyone in the room stands once the President arrives. The President shakes hands with the recipient of the decoration and persons attending the ceremony. The President takes his position in front of his chair and the master of ceremonies begins the formal proceedings. The content of the ceremony varies depending on whether the recipient of the decoration is an ROC citizen or a foreign national. If he or she is an ROC citizen, the master of ceremonies will read out the award certificate. If the recipient is a foreigner, the master of ceremonies will read a commendation prepared by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Once completed, the master of ceremonies calls for the President to confer the decoration. The recipient faces the President, and the President personally decorates the individual first with a sash, followed by the medal. The Director-General of the Office of the President's Third Bureau (the protocol officer) will lend assistance. Once the decoration is presented, a picture with the President is taken. Everyone then returns to their original positions. After the decoration part of the ceremony is completed, everyone is seated and the recipient of the decoration delivers remarks to express gratitude. Everyone then rises and is provided with a glass of champagne. The President and the individual decorated first raise their glasses and toast each other, after which the audience is guided by protocol officers in first paying their respects to the President and then raising their glasses in congratulations to the recipient. After the toasts, the President takes commemorative photos with the decorated individual and those attending the ceremony. The President then shakes hands with the recipient and the attendees, after which he is led back to his office by a military attaché. If the recipient of the order is a foreigner who has made a long trip for the ceremony, the President holds discussions with the guest after the commemorative photos are taken. After the talks, they shake hands and part ways.

Now peasant tradition has found a modern reinforcement - pre-natal scanning. In one rural township where parents have been able to discover the sex of their children in the womb, more than three boys are being born for every two girls. The Communist Party committee in Zaozhuang, in the northern province of Shandong, has warned that officials who have used scanning to detect and abort female babies will be stripped of their posts and membership.
Obtaining evidence of this secret slaughter has never been easy, except for the growing disparity in population statistics. Normally 105 or 106 girls are born for every 100 boys, but the past three censuses in China have recorded more than 110 boys aged 12 months or less for every 100 girls. According to the semi-official China News Service, the gap is far wider in rural areas: newborn boys outnumber girls by an average 144.6 to 100. In Zaozhuang the ratio is 163.8 to 100, an imbalance the agency says is being blamed on pre-natal scanning.
The problem is by no means unique to China. Last week Punjab, where there are only 820 women to every 1,000 men, became the second Indian state after Maharashtra to ban pre- natal sex determination tests, following large-scale abortions of female foetuses. Doctors who abort girls after a test face up to three years in jail under the new law. Britain has no compulsory national guidelines, although the General Medical Council warns that it is unethical to perform abortions on sex grounds except in the case of genetic disorders which are passed on to the next generation only by one sex.
In China, the combined effects of two vast exercises in social engineering are proving lethal to girls. The one-child policy is brutal enough - transgression of it can result in houses being pulled down, peasants being fined a year's wages and heavily pregnant women dragged from their homes at night to be bullied into immediate abortions. Human rights groups say it is also being used to prevent ethnic minorities, who previously had fallen outside its net, becoming a larger proportion of the population.
In Tibet, it is feared that ruthless birth control and the influx of Chinese settlers are making Tibetans a minority within their own borders. But China's rulers are trying to improve the quality of the population as well as limiting the quantity. Theories of eugenics from the 1930s and 1940s, discredited elsewhere, are current: 'Apart from failing to understand the general moral implications of eugenics policies, they seem unaware that scientifically they don't work,' said Frank Dikotter of the School of Oriental and African Studies in London. 'You can't improve quality by eliminating so-called 'bad strains'.'
The Prime Minister, Li Peng, showed the official understanding of such matters, however, when he said in 1990: 'Mentally retarded people will give birth to idiotic children.'
Peking last year put forward a draft law on Eugenics and Health Protection 'to avoid new births of inferior quality and heighten the standards of the whole population'. It proposed that those with hepatitis, venereal disease or mental illness should be banned from marrying, pregnant women with 'certain infectious diseases' should be advised to halt the pregnancy, and couples with diseases 'should have themselves sterilised'. The authorities were unapologetic when the bill provoked an international outcry.
Sheila Hillier, Professor of Medical Sociology at London Hospital Medical College, said China had an extensive programme of genetic counselling before marriage, aimed at eliminating inherited disabilities. 'Unfortunately,' she added, 'many people seem to consider being a girl a genetic defect.'
There are already frequent reports of men in parts of rural China complaining of the shortage of marriageable women. One result is the growing incidence of women being kidnapped and sold as brides, an offence for which traffickers have been executed. 'It is an economic problem,' Professor Hillier said. 'Poorer men have trouble finding wives, while those with money can afford more than one.'
But if birth control and eugenics continue to do their work, it is not simply going to be poor peasants who face a lifetime of celibacy. Some projections claim that the Chinese population, which the authorities admit will probably reach 1.2 billion this year and will continue growing at least until 2020, could plunge thereafter to 700 million. It is far more likely, however, that social attitudes will change well before then, even if there is little sign of that happening so far.
'If China is hoping that rising prosperity will encourage people to have fewer children, it had better think again,' said Professor Hillier. 'Demographers are beginning to revise their ideas. It now appears that both above and below a certain band of incomes, people feel they can afford a bigger family.
'Emancipating women, especially raising their educational level, is by far the strongest factor in limiting the number of births. In China it would have the double effect of making girls more valued and stabilising the reproductive capacity of the population as a whole. But it doesn't seem to be grasped as a major policy issue.'
The elimination of baby girls in China, said Gerald Segal of the International Institute of Social Studies, 'challenges the assumption that new technology and greater prosperity always make things better. It depends on all sorts of other factors, such as social attitudes and cultural bias. In China it is making the problem worse, because they are half a generation away from a peasant society.'
