Bombarded as we are by Liszt recordings in his anniversary year, this is refreshingly different. Pianist Pierre-Laurent Aimard is also a skilled maker of programmes (he is currently director of the Aldeburgh festival). This recital, recorded live in Vienna's Konzerthaus, celebrates Liszt's influence on subsequent composers: Wagner (his little known sonata in A flat), Scriabin (the bizarre "Black Mass" sonata), Bartók, Berg, Ravel, Messiaen and Marco Stroppa (b 1959). Since large quantities of Liszt in one sitting can be indigestible, this is an excellent way into the B minor sonata and sections of Années de pèlerinage. Perhaps it was my sound system or the live recording but did the piano itself sound slightly muzzy?

Thank god for monks! Chartreuse cocktails at Colt & Gray
Carthusian monks have been making Chartreuse since 1605 -- and at a Colorado Bartending Guild mixer at Colt & Gray on Wednesday, it quickly became clear that the French liquor has lost none of its power over four centuries.
Todd Richman, national brand ambassador for Chartreuse, was on hand to offer up some history...and cocktails, of course. Like many alcohols of that era, it was originally a botanical elixir (think Fernet Branca and Jagermeister), a mix of 130 herbal extracts. I tried a few cocktails made primarily with whiskey and either Green or Yellow Chartreuse -- and I am now, officially, a Chartreuse fan.
Next time you can't decide what to drink, order up a Tipperary or Yellow Daisy. The monks will thank you.

By Susan Wloszczyna, USA TODAY
TORONTO Jennifer Connelly rarely shies away from films that test her stamina along with an audience's tolerance for wrenching subject matter.
The onetime child actress has built a solid grown-up career out of drug addiction (2000's Requiem for a Dream), tortured souls (2000's Pollock and 2003's Hulk), tragic culture clashes (2003's House of Sand and Fog) and suburban unease (2006's Little Children).
Her tear-streaked beauty often offers the lone respite from the pain onscreen, such as her Oscar-winning performance as the steadfast wife of Russell Crowe's unstable math genius in 2001's A Beautiful Mind.
"I'm very comfortable with difficult emotions," says Connelly, explaining her harrowing résumé.
So when she describes her distraught mother in Reservation Road, opening Friday, as "the toughest role I have ever played," that's quite a statement.
The actress was pushed to the limit as a grieving New Englander who watches in horror as her once-exemplary professor husband (Joaquin Phoenix) sinks into the abyss of homicidal rage over the unsolved hit-and-run death of their 10-year-old son.
"I tried my hardest to really separate it from my personal life," says Connelly, who is married to actor Paul Bettany and has two sons, Kai, 10, and Stellan, 4.
"I didn't let myself think about my own family and my own kids. It feels too exploitative."
Movie downers
But shutting out her own reality often proved impossible. "Of course, the film is informed by it," she says.
As a result, the actress exhibited physical symptoms of stress during the shoot, even though the set itself was relatively calm and relaxed. "I am an Olympic sleeper. It's one of the things I do best in life. But I was having nightmares and having a hard time sleeping. My jaw kept locking up, and I couldn't eat. I got a week into it, and I thought, 'What have I done to myself?' "
Moviegoers might have the same thought if they buy a ticket to one of the many downbeat choices coming out this weekend.
Besides Reservation Road, there is Rendition with Reese Witherspoon, about the torture of terrorism suspects. Gone Baby Gone, directed by Ben Affleck, explores the case of a kidnapped child. In Things We Lost in the Fire, sorrowful widow Halle Berry bonds with Benicio Del Toro, a recovering addict.
The non-drama alternatives aren't much cheerier: Alaskan vampires on ice in 30 Days of Nights and a 3-D revival of the macabre Nightmare Before Christmas. In limited release is a supposed comedy titled Wristcutters: A Love Story.
This weekend could go down as one of the most depressing lineups ever in a season already packed with what Variety's editor in chief Peter Bart decries as "the feel-bad" movie. "I applaud filmmakers for dealing with real issues in the real world," he wrote last week. "At the same time, the feel-bad genre is becoming downright oppressive."
A tough sell
The box office also is taking a hit, as military-related films such as The Valley of Elah and The Kingdom fail to connect with the public.
"After a heavy diet of mindless popcorn during the summer, adult moviegoers usually gravitate toward high-quality, serious films in the fall," says Gitesh Pandya, editor of BoxOfficeGuru.com. "But, this year, the months of September and October are too crowded with depressing films, and some will be tough to sell."
The toughest sell just might be Reservation Road. It is built like a well-credentialed model of an Oscar vehicle, directed and co-written by Terry George (2004's Hotel Rwanda, a three-time nominee and a rare uplifting tale about genocide). The respected cast includes Mark Ruffalo as the guilty driver, a divorced dad who fails to turn himself in for fear of losing his son. Mira Sorvino is his hypercritical ex-wife.
But star power aside, the trailer can't disguise that the plot is about a parent's worst nightmare: the accidental loss of a child's life.
As critic Kirk Honeycutt of The Hollywood Reporter observed, "Reservation Road (represents) a very tough sell for Focus Features as the film gets caught somewhere between domestic weep-a-thon and revenge melodrama."
Irish-born filmmaker George, who has seen his share of death and despair growing up a Catholic in Belfast, even spending time in a British jail as an IRA activist, had his reasons for doing Reservation Road. And none involved bumming out an audience.
When the New York transplant first read the script, he began to muse about "the American population's reaction to post-9/11, initially being consumed by that need for revenge. And about how distant people have become with death and what needs to be done. The ceremony around it, the recovery and the understanding of the grief."
Back home, it was a different story. "I can't tell you the number of funerals I've been to in my early life. It would be over 100. I wanted to visit the revenge thing, the whole notion of demonizing someone and coping with the biggest catastrophe a parent can have."
In the end, Road proved more difficult than Rwanda to get made. "It's much easier to do it on a big canvas than to boil things down," he says. "I hope it's redemptive and when people hear of the acting, they will give it the time. It's certainly gut-wrenching and devastating. But cinema doesn't have to be just big-bang eye candy. It can make you think."
It certainly made Ruffalo think as he tackled yet another deeply flawed individual who can't handle responsibility, much like the errant brother in his breakout film, 2000's You Can Count on Me.
"I actually enjoy doing these kinds of films," he says. As for ticket-sale concerns, "I don't think any of my movies, even the comedies, are what you call box-office gold. Never have been. But I just go where my interests lie."
Reservation Road has many layers of discomfort, however. It is bad enough that Ruffalo's Dwight delays owning up to killing a child, his own son's classmate, with his SUV. He's also a lawyer — one who ends up representing Phoenix's Ethan when the cops make little progress in finding the driver.
"When you read the book, Dwight comes with a lot of baggage. He's from an alcoholic family, his father was physically abusive," says Ruffalo, a married father of two with a third on the way.
"I have a lot of sympathy for those types of individuals. We are tempted to look at the world as black and white, cut and dry, diseased and not diseased. That's just not the human condition. Who knows how any one of us would react in that situation?"
He says journalists have questioned his playing such a terrible human being, but they aren't seeing the whole picture. "In the end, it's about how human we are, how much alike we are."
The theme of fathers and sons also proved attractive. "If I didn't have a son (Keen, 6), I don't know if I would have been drawn to the material." Still, he concedes, "I'll never see this movie. I lived it."
A time to cry
Phoenix, who appeared in Hotel Rwanda, brought the script to George with the intention of playing Ethan. "It's been a while since I read a script that felt like every character had a unique perspective, and it was valid," says the unmarried actor, who has no children but witnessed the overdose death of older brother River in 1993 at 23.
He talked to members of Mothers Against Drunk Driving for research, even though the scenario in the movie does not involve alcohol. "I've never witnessed that level of grief in somebody," he says of the parents he met. "As well as rage. I was completely shocked by that."
But Phoenix says he never felt unnerved by his character's gloomy state of mind. "The first week is kind of like miserable, but at some point, it's just what you've been doing for two weeks, and it becomes absolutely normal to you."
Ruffalo, hearing how Phoenix says he found it easy to shrug off the trauma each night, questions his seeming nonchalance. "He is cavalier about it, but he's one of the most committed, hard-working actors I've ever worked with. He really cares deeply."
Phoenix hopes people aren't put off by the subject matter. "To me, this isn't a grief movie. I don't want to make a movie where people sit around crying all day. In the first five minutes, the kid is killed, and that's that. With Terry involved, it didn't feel manipulative. There's nothing that feels syrupy. That is the danger with this movie."
In fact, he says George banned weeping the second day of shooting. "He's going, 'I don't want to see any more (expletive) crying. I don't want any (expletive) crying.' " That rule held — until the climactic explosive confrontation between Ethan and Dwight. "He said, 'I need you to cry now.' "
Connolly has had her fill of tears. "I'm doing a comedy next, He's Just Not That Into You, with a bunch of girls," including Jennifer Aniston and Drew Barrymore. "I'm very excited by that."
Even George wants to explore funny business. "I think I can write humor, even in stuff that is very dark. Now, I want to lighten up."
Come fall's end, he probably won't be the only one saying that.

Let me introduce myself. My name is Mark Sisson. I'm 63 years young. I live and work in Malibu, California. In a past life I was a professional marathoner and triathlete. Now my life goal is to help 100 million people get healthy. I started this blog in 2006 to empower people to take full responsibility for their own health and enjoyment of life by investigating, discussing, and critically rethinking everything we've assumed to be true about health and wellness...Tell Me More
Last week's post on emotional eating got people talking – about the personal struggles they've had and the mental games they've learned to avoid in their quest for health. One such game, I think, is what we call treating ourselves. How many people justify bad eating habits because they tell themselves they deserve the treat? "Can't I just enjoy a little pleasure in life?" "Aren't I entitled?" Sometimes it takes on context. "With all I put up with…" "Why can't I just have this one thing?" "This is the one thing I do for myself."
Treating ourselves. When the noun morphs into the verb, there's a subtle but significant distinction. Treating ourselves invites us to step outside our normal life for the promise of something of sweeter – and "better." On occasion, it can be a lighthearted dalliance. For too many people, however, it becomes a continual path of self-sabotage. We all want to believe we deserve more, deserve better than what we come to feel is the mundane. Advertisers leap on this low hanging psychological fruit. Our culture as a whole promotes the immediate gratification of it. There are days when the most resolute among us might at least consider the question. Maybe it's been one of those days…or years. We're going through a tough time. We might feel like this momentary extravagance really is all we have to salvage the day.
We can feel like we're justifiably soothing ourselves or we're valiantly snubbing our noses at the world that abused us so heinously, but the truth is we're only robbing ourselves of our own health and wellbeing. Sure, a "treat" distracts us in the moment. The taste, texture, and concept numb us for a short time to whatever emotion, issue, or task we're hoping to escape. In and of itself as an occasional choice, it doesn't seem like any real harm. Usually, it isn't.
The problem is, the concept can take on a life of its own. We treat ourselves enough, and it becomes more than a momentary indulgence but an ongoing excuse to delude ourselves into living – and eating – in an alternative reality. As reader Chica put it last week, the treating/cheating concept places the possibility of making healthy choices outside ourselves and onto an invented "authority." We give up our own authority and sell out our own intention in doing so. A treat in this context can convince us on some level we've "freed" ourselves from that imposition for a few minutes. It might make x, y, or z situation feel comfortably remote for a time, but sooner or later that same vexation comes back into focus again. By eating out of avoidance or entitlement, we're not fixing the original problem. To boot, we eventually find we've created new issues. We put on weight. Our health markers take a downturn. Money we'd budgeted for healthy food has now been spent on junk food. The literal and figurative cost can add up quickly.
Sure, there are conscious, legitimate reasons for choosing to eat a piece of holiday pie, a friend's birthday cupcake, or other non-Primal food. Telling yourself you "deserve" it, I'd suggest, isn't one of those. As the 80/20 guide explains, sometimes there's nothing wrong with pleasure for pleasure's sake – no strangled mental justification required. An excuse, I would argue, is nothing but a game.
What do you deserve then? It's a question I think we all need to ask ourselves at some point. What do you feel you deserve, and how does your answer genuinely serve your wellbeing? Do our indulgences (food and otherwise) mollify us or nourish us, numb us or fulfill us? Do we even regularly give ourselves those things that we feel we deserve? If not, why not? Do we accept other, lesser things in their place? What does this denial (full or partial) do to our life satisfaction, and how does it perhaps influence less healthy choices we make in a day – whether it be food or something else?
Ultimately, we decide what role pleasures and rewards will play in our lives and what they will be. The best indulgences I would argue, aren't those that remove us from our healthy intentions but those that leave us with a broader, more expansive vision of what they could be.
Thanks for reading. Share your views on treating yourself to what you deserve. Have a good end to the week, everyone.

This is a great post. So glad that it is today's topic.
That picture with the whipped cream, and toppings looks sooooo good…
And whats that? A cherry on top too!???
Who am I kidding, I'm going to make me a big bowl of ice cream right now!
You know what? The picture barely looks like food now, it could be spray painted foam rubber from how garish it looks.
Eating that would feel less like a treat than an imposition.
Today I had a real treat – blew 4 days food money on a haunch of wild venison from a top quality game butcher.
Next treat might be a big bowl of amazing organic berries. Or a too-expensive bottle of vintage French red wine.
Those are my kind of treats. My treat today is 2 squares of 87% Taza chocolate, a spoonful of raw almond butter and a spoon of macadamia nut butter.
Yes, you really nailed it. On the rare occasion where I "treat" myself to say, a pastry, it never lives up to my expectations. I end up asking myself, "why the hell did I used to think this was so good?!"
I love when I get the chance to splurge on good meat, perfect produce and fresh, raw dairy.
Way more satisfying, mentally and gustatorily.
Dinner at yours!
I'm starting to understand some 1st generation Asian (East and West) migrants, when they're so fascinated with our brightly coloured "food" but won't touch it themselves.
Aesthetically? That cupcake is pretty.
Food it most certainly is not. :p
Go ahead. You DESERVE it! 😉
That was a misplaced post. Sorry.
ironically, proper ice cream is paleo
especially with your username 🙂
Excellent post, and timely too. This is something I often must remind myself of.
I'm treating myself to braised (pastured) pork belly tonight. Yes, I "deserve" it.
The reason a person may not be able to reward themselves with a treat (as in my case) is firmly addiction. Treats have to at least be low carb or non-food related. Another problem is the "I've blown it" mindset that becomes the springboard to paleo sin.
i agree! that's all very insightful, especially the all-or-nothing mentality. it's always a good time to just start over with healthy eating again, even after "i've blown it."
Ditto, and not just for food, but exercise and personal finances, too. Even a small failing can (and probably will) be used a springboard for apathy the rest of the day/week/month. I have to be very careful, since I am so prone to this issue.
I'm right there with ya! Addiction for sure
I completely agree! I couldn't have put it any better!
same here
Here, here!
I read somewhere, I think it was Aglaee Jacob (apologies if I'm misappropriating along with my paraphrasing), that a treat is not a treat if you feel bad/sick afterwards. I have to remember that when I fall face first into a pile of brownies!
I was wondering where you had disappeared to; I hadn't seen any comments from you for a while.
Glad to see that you're back. I find a lot of your comments refreshing and I enjoy reading what you write.
Yes, I'm there, have been for about 6 months, swinging back and forwards against a backdrop of familial (mostly) stressful episodes. Definitely an all or nothing here.
Everything you said here it totally me.
Great Post! Living primal style means treating myself daily with great foods and feeling good. Though the occasional homemade coconut milk ice cream with dark chocolate flakes is my favorite "indulgence"!
+1. Full fat heavy cream of course..
EXACTLY! 🙂 "being good" most of the time entitles me to have what i consider a treat — and what is that? rack of lamb! home-made ice cream! lobster tails! once in a blue moon i'll even have some twice-baked potato! take THAT, baskin-robbins….
This is something I think many people struggle with, and the removal of guilt in the way Mark describes is spot on. I also believe his final comment is pertinent. We should treat ourselves in both new and non-food ways.
And, for my money, when I want to treat myself, I buy an exotic/expensive fruit/vegetable or cut of meat. All the indulgence without the risk.
Exactly, I always try to remove guilt by overly justifying it. I like your ideas for treats and will copy! THANKS!
wow, so timely! i am heading on vacation after a month of pretty strict primal and had a dream last night that i was massively cheating particularly around sugar. i feel like i am pretty easily able to do this at home, so this will be a new challenge…travel for work and pleasure, how will i fair? staying conscious and aware will be key.
thx for the post!
Mark, great post.
I believe that many of us tend to live our lives with a "poverty mentality" and dieting is pretty similar. Living as though there just isn't enough to go around – not enough pleasure, not enough love, not enough food, not enough money. At some level, we feel like we have to steal these things. I think it helps tremendously to go around believing that there is ENOUGH, it removes the inclination to beg, borrow, and steal…or find excuses to provide to some imaginary master.
Ooooooo – Excellent comment Melissa
I second that!
third! 😀
Agreed completely. The "abundance" mentality enables me to practice gratitude and stop looking for "treats". Now if only I could keep it right up front in my head and not lose sight of it when life gets in the way.
Dave and TerriAnn….exactly! I agree on all counts!
Practicing a state of gratitude means that you have all you need…you're safe! All will be provided when you need it. Also, allowing yourself to appreciate yourself and the things you do. We get criticized so often that it helps to remember we all do the best we can and we deserve respect and to be treated kindly.
FOurth. ")
Agreed. A manta I like to repeat is "I am blessed with abundance." Coming from a mindset of abundance rather than deprivation is really helpful.
This is a good point…"the social nature of treat food." Nothing quite like having to pass on someone's store-bought birthday cake to have everyone in the room raising their eyebrows.
The surprising thing though is if you commit to no cake, after a while everyone in the family gets used to it. (Hopefully!) My family does ask, but they are waiting for me to say no. (They'd probably be shocked at this point if I asked for a big slice.)
In big social gatherings, usually people are less concerned with you actually eating the stuff than with you having had the chance to have the cake.
how dare you host a gathering without "fun" food- what will my friends think if they were forced to drink water
EXACTLY! When we have friends over and we make them breakfast, I can offer them water…or water 😉 I doubt they want my homemade Kombucha or coconut milk, but that's all I got. I even hate to have sodas at our house if we do a crawfish boil or something like that. The 2yo only gets water, so should the adults.
And it seems like we have these gatherings several times a week, if not every day. That's where the problem gets REALLY problematic, when the "treat" becomes an every day event.
Your mention of McDonalds reminded me of a comedian I once heard. He said that when he was growing up he associated McDonalds with good feelings and would get a warm & happy feeling every time he saw the golden arches. He did not want his children to grow up like this so ever time they drive by he punches them in the arm. NOTE: I'm not advocating child battery!
I'm loving it.
Ha! Although it would benefit from a little tweaking in regard to the method, it sounds great in theory!
It's unfortunate that to a great number of us, food is much more about with what we associate it rather than nourishment for our bodies and a necessity for health and survival.
To many, food = love, safety, comfort and celebration.
Haven't laughed so hard all week.
Sorry, but you do become 'that parent' as soon as your child isn't allowed (for whatever reason) to go and have a burger with his friends or can't have grandma's lasagna. Of course, it gets easier as an adult but there are still social situations over which you have little control.
You know what? Gently be that mom. There are celiacs who ding negative with the biopsy because it can take years for enough damage to appear yet in unnecessary agony all that time. Even if he's not celiac, he could have an intolerance. Then he gets leaky gut, and then you have all the rottenness that comes with that. My suggestion is you educate your kid on the potential consequences, and make paleo/primal kid friendly treats available. "Eat like a dinosaur" folks have lots of allergy friendly sweet treats for kids.
Suzanne – I hope you don't think I was having a go at the CD/gluten parenting. I'm sure that the more people become aware of primal/paleo the better for everyone – including CD sufferers. Unfortunately so many CD sufferers try to claim exclusive rights on eating this way and scorn us primal types.
My trainer/RD has stressed that I'm entitled to good health and wellbeing. With that mindset, nothing that will compromise my health and wellbeing feels like a treat.
Thanks for sharing this!!
Exacly what I think everytime I feel guilty when saying "no" – AGAIN – to someones painstakingly homabaked treat. I AM entitled to protecting my health. It may taste heavenly but my health tastes even better. 🙂
I'm going to make steamed cabbage with garlic butter tonight – favourite veg recipe of the moment!!!
Alice, this is so true! Thanks for putting into words what I just couldn't quite articulate. There's nothing special about these foods, yet we hold them in the highest regard and imply that if you don't eat them you're somehow missing out on this great thing.
I struggled to articulate it, too. I read an article many years ago about how if you are the type of dieter who is "allowed" to eat one small piece of candy a day, then your whole day will revolve around when you get that candy and the candy will remain fixed in your mind as the most desirable food of the day. The article put it much more succinctly but I can only recall the general concept.
Yes, my Big Ass Salad is my treat for every day of the week. I look at it as a treat and it is a treat. It treats me right and it's not a "trick or treat". I didn't have to sign a treaty to stick to it either.
Some people just can't have a good time without alcohol, some without sugar.
I'm not a coffee addict; we're just in a committed relationship. After 6 months of no coffee or tea, I found I wasn't getting anything done or having any fun, so I went back.
You make some excellent points, Alice. For me, a bowl of turnip greens cooked Southern-style with bits of ham and sprinkled with pepper sauce is a treat. I love it.
"By putting things like bakery items on a pedestal"
Which is something people literally do! I've never seen an elevated meat plate.
It didn't dawn on me when I wrote that that my metaphor was literal. 🙂 But yeah, what's up with cakes on pedestals? Some kind of psychological shrine/worship thing?
Yes, cakes on pedestals are like the belle of the ball! Heh. Let's buy cake pedestals and put charcuterie on them!
Putting a cake on a pedestal elevates something pretty and gives the table some height variation. You can put something else that is colorful on it; fruit, vegtables or even candles. We do need another way to say "celebrate." In the old days people used to sing, maybe I should try that at my next party.
Stacked meat plate sources:
1) Find and hang with charcuterie practioners.
2) Epic Meal Time
I have a cake stand I never use now after going primal. NOW I know what to use it for!!
Yumm, great idea
If you make some more, it might help to cut down the recipe to like Ez-Bake oven portions and/or throw away the excess. I mentioned it upstream, but our household is ruthless with disposing of "non-food".
Amy –
I think your idea of 'non food' is very good. I have been taking things (milk chocolate, cookies, etc.) that get into our house – usually as a gift – to work where it is eaten quickly (by colleagues, not me!). But I think that there are times when chucking it into the bin might be just as well. It feels wasteful, but I don't feel I'm 'wasting' other kinds of rubbish, a used tissue, say, when I throw it out. So, no longer will I feel bad for tossing out 'non food'!
I like baking bread, and I'm the only one who can't eat it, so I make it once in a while and don't eat any. I've learned to feel happy that they love it so much and not regret that I can't have any. 🙂
Wow Alice. Great response! I'm right there with you, but my veggie that I crave is roasted brussel sprouts after work!
Me and the mrs. Bought a realy awesome dark chocolate bar that we are going to have when she get under 200 lb. ( im under that already.) But its not the real treat. The real treat is fitting into our highschool pants again and not being tired and sick all the time.
I want to add…there is goodness inside of us already.
Mazzy, that is your second comment that I made a point of copying down for later reference. I'm guessing you're a therapist.
+1 regarding Mazzy's insightful, brilliant comments….Archiving immediately.
I feel, unfortunately, that my food blog gazing qualifies as cheating…because I can spend/waste hours of my life coveting the images of baked goods that I simply know are not good for me, whether said bakery goods are paleo or not….Why oh why do I engage in such behaviors?!..I do not actually engage in preparing the recipes…but it almost seems punitive to gander at such things…to obsess over food to the point where one forgets to fully embrace the primal way of life…being vibrant and multi-faceted..open to all that life has to offer.
I find that the more I think about, look at, or focus on something, the more I want it. So I focus on things that are good for me. Ice cream? No, I think about a couple tablespoons of heavy cream poured over blueberries (or pecans, or dark chocolate chips) Big Mac? No, bacon wrapped filet mignon over seared asparagus suits my health better. Focusing on baked goods is only going to make you want baked goods more. Focus on what is good for you AND delicious. The Primal Diet allows BACON AND CHOCOLATE. What is there to miss? 😉
Great post, as usual!
There are so many nice treats within the primal diet that I really don't have the need to "treat myself to stomach problems" by eating anything else…. 🙂
bingo ! with the very rare exception, this is exactly how i feel. i've been following the PB for about 9 mos and have lost nearly 60 lbs.
I have found when I am really craving something non-primal, I can fend it off by eating something primal. I decide that I can have the "treat" after I eat this (fill in good primal food here). Once I've eaten the primal food, if I am still really desiring the "treat" then I may eat it, but usually the craving has subsided & I am satisfied without it.
My treat is dark chocolate. At least 80% stuff. I buy a 100 gram bar (3 and a half ounces) and have 20 grams (thee-quarters of an ounce) as a treat. When it's gone, that's it for the week.
A bar usually lasts a week but if not it's kind of self limiting as I can't buy anymore til shopping day.
Thanks for this post, Mark! I started Primal 2 1/2 years ago, and it was a great way to jump-start healthy eating. Now, I'm working through this "treat" issue, because I'm realizing that while overeating on Primal food is better than the alternative, it's still overeating. It's not good for my body to have to process a lot more food than I need, and certainly is not good for my diabetic tendencies!
yep. me too. after christmas it started, Its now over (again)
Being T1 diabetic, i dont have the option of 'indulging' if i want to keep my blood sugar levels at that of a normal person. I havent had dessert in about 2 yrs, and its not hard to avoid when you dont have a choice. This is one positive of having diabetes(at least for me), and i make sure to always remind myself of this 🙂
'dessert is bad'-amen to that. as a diabetic, i tell people i have a unique way of determining if a food is healthy or not: if it requires a whole vial of insulin to regulate blood sugar, it probably aint good for you! and nothing requires more insulin than dessert, bread, and pasta!
Thank Goddess for today's post – I needed it!!!
Anyone else reading this with the intonation and cadence of "TREAT YO'SELF 2011!" from Parks and Rec? 😉
YES! I love Parks and Rec!
I "deserve" good, whole foods that make me feel good and aren't just about momentary pleasure (one of the good things about paleo: eating non-primal/paleo foods makes me feel sick after about ten minutes.)
Besides, any indulgence I might want could be done better. I don't eat sugar anymore (as in added sugars, stevia, sucrose, agave nectar, honey, etc.) so if I want something sweet, I'll eat some grapes. It's sweet, and I don't want it often, but when I do want it (like… right now as I type), I don't need to feel guilty.
I don't 'cheat', ever. With my workout schedule I won't eat anything that isn't good for me. I've said publicly that I'm only one Hershey's Kiss away from being a fat guy again.
Shawn being type 1 does not mean you are not normal, just different from some others and unique against all others!
that picture has me craving a huge insulin spike, thanks mark
Hahaha me too! It was the cherry…. 😮
thank you for this, mark.
I really felt I deserved to treat myself to Jamaica for some extra Vit. D production this year, but my pocketbook isnt in agreement! 🙂
A friend just told me that he is now going to use "sweet" instead of "treat", as in "I'm going to the store to buy a sweet." The reason being that by using a neutral word like sweet, he's removing the emotional connotations of the word treat.
Winter holiday to warm, sunny climate? Now there's a treat I could really get behind! Sadly, my pocketbook agrees with yours…
its all about the kind of stress you get when you turn things down if you stress out about rice not being in your diet alot then maybe eh throw it in there its not ideal but hey it works. when i threw yams into my diet not all the time but maybe 1 or twice a week the stress relief i got was enormous so id try looking through that lens
This week I'm treating myself to a size smaller jeans from the local second hand clothing store ($4.95) and a membership to Crossfit (significantly more expensive). Food is not the only way to "treat" oneself!
I just happened to be treating myself today! I work at Jimmy John's, so I have to indulge on our French bread every once in awhile. I feel so much better being primal, and I'm so glad that I can wait and appreciate some of my favorite non-Primal foods only sporadically. (If I could eat toast everyday without feeling like crap and non-nourished, I totally would). But now it's a treat whenever I visit my parents and I'm glad I finally have that control and mindset!
Best to all. Cheers!
I have diabetes. I buy myself flowers (daffodils cost about the same as a coffee) for my sweet treat when I
I really want one.
+1 Wonderful idea!
I haven't ate a chips ahoy chocolaty chip cookie in over 2 years. The thing is your brain does not know any difference from reality to thought. So I can literally sit here and think that I'am eating a chips ahoy cookie without physically eating one. Honestly, its all sugar to me, if you want to transition from a fat meal to a sugary one to satisfy a craving, then why not get it from natural food! You can very well make a dessert from natural ingredients that come naturally whole from this planet!
Not long ago my boyfriend bought some of them. I was apprehensive about even having them in the household, as I keep a gluten-free household. But he ate a few and threw them out. They were nasty and stale. He couldn't believe he used to enjoy them.
I make a barely sweetened chocolate chip cookie from almond flour and dark chocolate chips. It is more bread-like than cookie-like, and they are so undersweetened that you really can eat just one.
Usually when I am craving a carb, I figure it is really fat that my body is asking for. I try to eat bacon wrapped sausage first. That has always done the trick. Bacon wrapped any kind of meat is simply sensational!
The way I usually put it:
There is nothing wrong with treating yourself every once in a while. It would be unprimal not to. Just as long as you recognize what you are eating as a treat and not an every day occurance.
You were not rewarding yourself. The entire episode was punishment, not reward.
Ok, time to stay away from the Ritz crackers 🙂
What better "treat" than coconut milk with some stevia/maple syrup/cocoa/vanilla?! Or a cocoa macaroon made with maple syrup!? (thank you Hail Merry!) Or some dark chocolate?? How can people go astray with options like that and site after site of ideas of paleo breads/muffins/etc? I think that's the one thing that makes this lifestyle so sustainable for me…even the "treats" are fine.
ME! I have depression and the primal diet has helped a lot but the only reason I can eat this way is b/c I found Mark's Daily Apple- When Mark brought up 80/20 I thought, I wish I had thought of that on my own- I eat 20% of my calories daily in pure junk- coke-a-cola, cheetos, snickers candy bar whatever I want- It is the only thing that helps me to eat the rest at 80% and I feel damn good b/c I used to be 100% pure junk
I like to treat myself by eating a 16oz grass fed ribeye… instead of just 8oz.

Cooper Parlor: Using Service Blueprints to Create Holistic Multi-Channel Experiences
Thursday, April 3, 2014 from 5:30 PM to 8:30 PM (PDT)
Who's Going
San Francisco, California
London, United Kingdom
Florence, Italy
Event Details
Using Service Blueprints to Create Holistic Multi-Channel Experiences
When working on multi-channel experiences that blend both digital and human-to-human interfaces, service blueprints allow interaction designers to look beyond the pixels and peer into the structures and systems of touchpoints that create the service experience.
The process of discovering, designing, and weaving these touchpoints together is the core work and deliverable of service designers. Service blueprints embody the foundational concepts of service design and are a fundamental tool for clarifying the interactions between customers, digital touchpoints, employees, and 'backstage' activities (everything the customer does not see).
During this 2.5 hour workshop, you will learn about the anatomy of services and how to use service blueprints in your design practice. You will create a service blueprint documenting an existing service encounter and identify new opportunities. Utilizing this blueprint, you will explore
ways of manipulating aspects of service delivery to eliminate pain-points, improve the experience, and create new process efficiencies.

hotel staff I miss restaurant
very good. clean. good price. breakfast not including in the room price.
free wireless internet no airco on my room , but my reservation said I shoud have airco.
At breakfast the cafe is great. But when asking in the evening to the staff i get very worse cafe, while it is not the same when asking to hotel manager. Then each moment a day, coffee is OK
Nothing. The Interior was very dull and uninviting.The Restaurant food was Very Very Slow. We left after two hours without Maincourse seems a Conference took priority, and our complaint was not handle very professionaly that night and when checking out a couple of days later.
Beautiful location Breakfast was chaotic, staff lost control completely, no glasses, juices, cutlery, plates, etc and all that for euro 12.50 per person. a shame!!! Room and facilities in general needing a renovation
The room was comfortable, the gardens were beautiful and the staff were very helpful. We had a very relaxing stay here.
The hotel and its surroundings were lovely. The price of the hotel was very good for the quality; with good facilities, very helpful and welcoming staff and delicious food.
the location, the friendly staff 3-person room was really small, maintenance on installations poor, breakfast expensive but simple
Pleasant surroundings. Varied breakfast buffet. We wanted a no smoking room, but they wanted to charge 40euros extra. The room we were given smelt very smoky.
Being a "Relais du Silence"...the silence, plus the pool and the location.
Gourmet restaurant with fair price policy (menu available from 25.- EUR) and professional service. Large choice of wines by the galss. Wi-Fi in the all hotel available. Bathroom is ok. The room furniture is no more up to date for this hotel category and should be refreshed, the bed was not so comfortable.
quit night, large parking and friendly staff. Very expensive wifi, today it is essential for travellers, hotels management should consider offer them like basic service, otherwise, we, travellers, will choise hotels that give what we need: free wi-fi.

So maybe my following comments don't matter. 0) Maybe this wasn't an issue. I fetched the torrent file for disk 1. I ran ctorrent on it for 30 minutes or so and it didn't fetch anything more. So I tried btnet and it repeatedly errored: get http://torrents.pcbsd.org/announce.php?info_hash=%2e%1c%9c%7e%29%fc%8d%d8%6f%ee%12%7d%7b%0b%82%f7%b8%e4%2b%39&peer_id=%d9%12%c8%26%01%f3%58%4f%e2%5e%e8%ad%c1%3b%ab%3f%49%18%91%07&key=%52%b5%27%c3%85%48%12%7b&port=6881&uploaded=0&downloaded=0&left=585629696&compact=1 Error from tracker: Error SELECT P.seeder, P.peer_id, P.unique_id, P.uid, P.ip, P.real_ip, P.port, P.uploaded, P.downloaded, P.upload_speed, UNIX_TIMESTAMP(NOW()) - UNIX_TIMESTAMP(P.last_action) as seconds, U.level FROM torrent_peers P LEFT JOIN torrent_users U ON P.uid = U.id WHERE torrent = '13' AND unique_id = 'R' H{'; Time 1204235061 ... until I killed it. I don't know torrent very well, but I have used it successfully in the past. Maybe this was my own error. (And I was not using PC-BSD to fetch PC-BSD :) 1) Maybe Language and Keyboard menu header should mention Timezone too. 2) Timezones list not wide enough for me to see the shorter name (like CST) -- someone unfamiliar with offset from ITC and don't recognize closest location may find that difficult 3) Any "Quick Tips" five lines or longer had bottom line(s) chopped -- so I couldn't read them all -- even if resize window. 4) Should disable minimize of window. (Workaround for Fluxbox users: middle click or both mouse buttons and go to Icons submenu.) 5) License agreement -- plain text should be better formatted to not line wrap in middle of sentences -- makes it unfriendly to read. Maybe pre-justify the file to 40 characters lines. 6) Read license to get explanation for Intel Firmware and NVIDIA is not good enough. 7) In Installation choice, clicking Icon does nothing. Must click on small radio-button (some novices would assume an icon is a button). 8) No explanation what System Update / Repair might indicate. 9) Username final "e" is chopped off in the User accounts menu. 10) In Drive selection, must click on a detected disk to highlight it before can choose to use entire disk. Maybe say to click on it. 11) Maybe more details for the Customize Partition Layout -- I didn't see way to choose to do fdisk partitions (oh .. maybe because I chose to entire disk ... nevermind.) 12) In System Components, it would be nice to know more about these optional components and also know what comes with system already. For example: do I need Koffice or Openoffice if I want a word processor? (Note I didn't choose any of these since it said disk #2.) 13) On reboot, I pressed key to see kernel and boot messages and saw: : not found Some shell error, but screen changed so fast I couldn't see what was near it. 14) Maybe the Advanced tab for Monitor Settings should have some note about Hsync and Vrefresh, like " ... probably not needed as most modern devices are properly detected ..." or something like that. 15) It defaulted to Intel. How would a novice know what to use here? Maybe a note saying just use what is detected. (I was curious if I should have selected "Intel-3d-enable".) 16) After clicking apply, a popup window said settings now testing. And I waited. I didn't realize for about a minute, that I had to press "Ok" button to do the tests :) 17) And maybe the confirm the video is okay should be more than ten seconds so I'd have enough time to take notes :) 18) Why the "da vinci" at startup? What does that mean here? Now I google ... and see that this is the PC-BSD Da Vinci Edition. I was just curious. 19) Woah ... it had connected me to the wrong wireless -- I was on my neighbor's network! It works at least so I am happy! But maybe, I should have been given a choice when there are choices. 20) System showed wrong time for me -- even though I chose NTP option at first install menu. I left-clicked and it gave me a calendar. I right-clicked and fixed the time (after entering my root password). I could write a lot about what I am pleased with ... good job! I'm curious: Can I use the 1.4 CD's "System Update / Repair" option to update to 1.5 release candidate? Jeremy C. Reed p.s. I am and will be taking careful notes of my family's PC-BSD experiences. Stay tuned! I have a lot more notes but only mentioned things that might be useful to you above. p.p.s. By the way, The Best of FreeBSD Basics by Dru Lavigne has several pages about PC-BSD. http://www.reedmedia.net/books/freebsd-basics/

Rio De Janeiro (UPI) Feb 06, 2006
Brazilian officials are jockeying for funding to increase the country's production of ethanol, a leading bio-fuel that is cleaner burning that petroleum.
Over the past few weeks, the ethanol industry in Brazil has garnered much attention both at home and abroad, with President George W. Bush saying in his State of the Union speech that the United States needed to reduce its dependency on volatile nations and their oil supplies.
In Brasilia, ethanol advocates like Agricultural Minister Roberto Rodrigues have called for a $10 billion investment in the sugarcane industry, which is already the largest in the world. Ethanol is most commonly produced using either corn or sugar.
Last month, Rodrigues said he expected the demand for ethanol to double over the next eight years and if Brazil was going to keep its hold in the market, it would have to build 73 new ethanol-producing mills and increase its growing capacity by 50 percent.
"Ethanol is strategic for the country," said the minister following meetings with Brazilian sugar and ethanol executives.
Rodrigues' $10 billion request and remarks appeared to have had a powerful effect on the market, prompting raw sugar prices to reach a 24-year high in January.
Such is the potency of the ethanol ideal, particularly the sugar-based variety, said PierPaolo Cazzola, an energy analyst at the Paris-based International Energy Agency.
Cazzola said sugarcane ethanol has "large potential to reduce C02 emissions," up to 80 or 90 percent. Ethanol produced from starchy materials can reduce carbon dioxide emission from 15-20 percent, he added.
Brazil is already leaps and bounds ahead of the United States and other developed countries when it comes to using ethanol's full potential, making its use a matter of law. All Brazilian gasoline must contain 25 percent ethanol and most vehicles produced in the country can run on any mixture of the two fuels.
Back in the 1970s, Brazil's Pro-Ethanol Program subsidized sugar mills to produce extra product specifically for the production of the bio-fuel in the wake of the oil price spike experienced worldwide. Now with oil prices skyrocketing amid unrest in the Middle East, Brazil is once again experiencing a boom in the ethanol trade.
Brazil's federal energy company Petrobras signed an agreement last week to carry out a feasibility study for a new $225 million pipeline to carry ethanol from the center-west state of Goia to the coastal state of Sao Paulo.
The pipeline would have a capacity to transport about 1 billion gallons of the fuel annually to Petrobras's refinery where it would be mixed with gasoline. It would also create new opportunities for ethanol exports through the state's ports, said Petrobras in a statement.
"We are the only country in the world that has the technology to build an ethanol pipeline," Petrobras Chief Executive Sergio Gabrielli. "To make the ethanol market grow is strategic for the world, not just for Brazil."
If Brazilian projections for ethanol demands come true, then the projected pipeline and the minister's request for additional sugar investment would fuel the growing global demand for alternatives to oil.
by 2010, domestic and foreign demand for ethanol is expected to rise to about 6 billion gallons a year, said an agricultural ministry study, up from 4 billion annually now.
Last year Brazil produced 13 million gallons, though it is in talks with several nations, including the United States, China and India, to export 65 million gallons in the coming years.
Even if projections for global and national ethanol demand come to fruition in the next four years, Brazil won't be reaping the benefits of its added fuel production if the United States isn't committed to exploring bio-fuel options, noted Cazzola.
"A demand market must first be developed" through policy that ensures ethanol makes its way to American filling stations, he said.
When Brazil first introduced ethanol to drivers, the government made it mandatory for Petrobras to sell the fuel at its stations.

Among the proposals:
• Increase immigration to boost the number of workers supporting the elderly. The United States absorbed about 1 million legal and illegal immigrants last year. Higher immigration would be a short-term fix because immigrants will qualify for benefits one day, too.
• Increase the supply of physicians to spur competition and reduce fees. The USA has fewer physicians per capita than other industrialized nations, and physicians have higher incomes — an average $217,684 in 2003, according to trade journal Modern Healthcare— than in other countries.
A federal advisory council recommended to Congress this year that the number of new medical students rise from 24,000 to 27,000 a year, partly financed by Medicare-funded fellowships.
• Reform the federal budget process so Congress votes every year on how much to spend on Medicare and Social Security. The programs now grow automatically under costly formulas, mostly set during the 1960s.
Social Security's benefit formula — tied to growth in wages and inflation — causes each generation to get benefits with more buying power than the last.
Congress could cut benefits 10% across the board, and a person retiring in 2035 would still get a lifetime benefit worth 20% more than someone retiring today, the Congressional Budget Office estimates.
"Nothing is more important than ending the automatic growth of these programs," says C. Eugene Steuerle of the Urban Institute. "Every generation needs to have control of its own destiny. It's as if President Taft created a budget 100 years ago that determines what we spend today."

Cause Creative Space: The 2011 Do Something Awards! (PHOTOS)
Welcome to Celebuzz's latest feature, Cause Creative Space. We teamed up with the folks behind Avan Jogia's Straight But Not Narrow campaign to give you an inside look at the Do Something Awards, airing on VH1 Thursday August 14.
Do Something has one goal — getting young people to, well, DO SOMETHING! And believe us, they do this better than anyone. By fully embracing pop culture and utilizing almost every possible type of media you can get your hands on, they are able to reach young people by the millions.
The DSA spotlights some amazing young people and celebrities who have made huge efforts to do something for charity and activism. This year's DSA airs on VH1 tonight (Thursday) at 6pm and is hosted by the very soft-spoken and shy (note the sarcasm) Jane Lynch from Glee.
Cause Creative had the chance to rub elbows (yes, only elbows) with a number of celebrities at the event, such as Victoria Justice and many more!
First up, we chatted with Victoria, the lovely 18-year-old star of Victorious. Now, saying this girl is busy would be a complete understatement. She stars in her own TV show, just finished filming a movie, is constantly in the recording studio working on new music (we're just exhausted talking about it)! One of her biggest achievements is being involved with the Girl Up campaign.
"I'm really passionate about my work with Girl Up and I'm excited to meet with these girls in person. Girl Up works to bring awareness to young girls in the US about other harder-to-reach young girls around the world and the hard things that they're facing. Please go to GirlUp.org and 'High Five' them and just donate whatever you can."
She has somehow carved out enough time in her schedule to take a Girl Up awareness trip in a couple of weeks. And she gave a bit of advice about how young people out there can easily make a difference:
"Use your social media people! Use it to spread positive messages and support causes you care about."
We couldn't agree more!
Ariana Grande, also from Nickelodeon's Victorious, has the perfect mix of insane talent and determination to make a difference. Ariana is very involved with the charity Broadway In South Africa. BSA is a non-profit that grabs singers, musicians, dancers, actors, and directors straight from the stages of Broadway and takes them to South Africa to use those talents to change the lives of people in need. Ariana told us:
"I just traveled to South Africa and visited with the kids there and taught them some of our music and dance. It was very eye opening and amazing, and the kids are so awesome and talented. I loved it!"
She didn't hold back when we asked her about young Hollywood and how she feels that some of her peers are using their influence with young people.
"Honestly, I think some of young Hollywood is doing a great job — and some of young Hollywood is doing a horrible job."
Well, tell us how you really feel! This girl is passionate about giving back and she definitely challenges the rest of young Hollywood to do their part too.
We also chatted with MTV's Damien Fahey and his girlfriend Grasie Mercedes. Damien is a Do Something favorite, being a Board Member of the organization he's been very active with Do Something for years, but the couple's main cause is animal protection.
"Animals. They're just so cute…. And delicious." Fahey jokes. "And they really give back to you as well. Some celebrities are more public with their support, and others give more privately. You just have to hope and trust that both things are happening. Overall, I think there's a pretty good philanthropy culture here in Hollywood."
Stay tuned as we work with Celebuzz to bring attention to some well deserving causes and the cool people that support them!

early 15c., assumpten "to receive up into heaven" (especially of the Virgin Mary), also assumen "to arrogate," from Latin assumere "to take up, take to oneself," from ad- "to, up" (see ad-) + sumere "to take," from sub "under" + emere "to take" (see exempt (adj.)).
Meaning "to suppose, to take for granted as the basis of argument" is first recorded 1590s; that of "to take or put on (an appearance, etc.)" is from c.1600. Related: Assumed; assuming. Early past participle was assumpt. In rhetorical usage, assume expresses what the assumer postulates, often as a confessed hypothesis; presume expresses what the presumer really believes.

The prince of paprikas, the sultan of spices.
Nothing replicates the flavor of authentic smoked Spanish paprika, made in the parched southwest region of Extremadura. You can't miss the difference. The flavor and aroma are deep, intense, sweet, spicy and smoky. It's become my secret ingredient for pasta sauces or omelettes. It magically transforms anything it touches.

Pebble is hoping to keep a few more people away from Android Wear with a major update for its Android companion app.
Version 2.1 for Android is a complete overhaul, and it finally allows users to see all their notifications on the Pebble smartwatch. Previously, Pebble notifications on Android were limited to a handful of sanctioned apps such as Gmail and Twitter, and users had to install third-party workarounds to fill the gaps.
Full notification support is limited to Android 4.3 for now, but Pebble says a future update will support Android 4.0 and higher. To turn on additional notifications from Android, users must open the Notifications menu in Pebble's Android app, scroll down to "all apps" and select the notifications they want to see.
Pebble says the new Android app should also improve stability and performance, and it paves the way for future updates and additional notification features for Android users.
The latest Pebble 2.8 firmware also adds support for notifications in many more languages on both iOS and Android.
Why this matters: Today's smartwatches are mostly about viewing and managing notifications at a glance, but Pebble's biggest improvements on this front have largely excluded Android users until now. Support for full notifications arrived for the iPhone more than a year ago, and over the summer, iPhone users gained the ability to dismiss a notification on Pebble and have it disappear from the phone as well. The latter feature hasn't arrived for Android yet, but seems like a possibility now that Pebble has laid a solid foundation.
This story, "Pebble's much-needed Android overhaul includes full notification support" was originally published by Greenbot.

President Obama became the first U.S. president to endorse same-sex marriage today, telling ABC News that it "should be legal."
"I've just concluded that, for me personally, it is important for me to go ahead and affirm that I think same sex couples should be able to get married," Obama told ABC's Good Morning America.
After years of what he had called an "evolving" view of the issues, Obama said family and friends gradually persuaded him that gay and lesbian couples should be treated the same as heterosexual ones.
Facing a re-election bid in which gay rights are a hot button issue, Obama also said his endorsement is a personal view, and that states should set their own marriage laws. The interview took place a day after voters in North Carolina approved a constitutional ban on gay marriage.
His comments also came within a few days of pro-gay marriage statements by Vice President Biden and Education Secretary Arne Duncan, increasing pressure on Obama from gay rights supporters.
ABC News broke into regular programming to report Obama's comments.
Mitt Romney, Obama's likely opponent in the Nov. 6 election, told a Denver television station he doesn't agree with Obama's assessment of gay marriage.
"When these issues were raised in my state of Massachusetts I indicated my view which is I do not favor marriage between people of the same gender and I don't favor civil unions if they are identical to marriage other than by name," the former governor said. "My view is that domestic partnership benefits, hospital visitation rights and the like are appropriate but the others are not."
Aides said Obama intended to make the announcement before the Democratic convention in early September. But the intense media scrutiny given to the comments by Biden and Duncan pushed up the timetable.
They also said the gay marriage issue would not be a major part of their campaign, and do not know how or if it will affect the outcome of the election.
That said, the Obama re-election team posted video of the ABC interview on its campaign website.
Gay rights organization praised the president's announcement. The Human Rights Campaign, which has long lobbied Obama to take such a step, said Obama "made history by boldly stating that gay and lesbian Americans should be fully and equally part of the fabric of American society."
HRC President Joe Solmonese said Obama's "words will no doubt inspire thousands more conversations around kitchen tables and in church pews," promoting equality for gay couples.
The Family Research Council, a conservative group, called Obama's decision disappointing, but not surprising. FRC President Tony Perkins predicted that the president would suffer for it at the ballot box.
"As demonstrated by yesterday's overwhelming vote in North Carolina, redefining marriage remains outside the mainstream of American politics," Perkins said. "Especially in the critical battleground states and among minority voters."
Perkins said said that 10 of 16 battleground states that have "marriage amendments" could be at risk after Obama's announcement. "Today's announcement almost ensures that marriage will again be a major issue in the presidential election," Perkins said.
Once an opponent of gay marriage, Obama said he changed his views in part because of the "incredibly committed monogamous relationships, same-sex relationships" he has seen among friends and staff.
Obama said his views also changed as he worked to end the military ban on openly gay servicemembers, the former policy known as "don't ask, don't tell."
Views of gay marriage also tend to be "generational," Obama said, telling Robin Roberts of ABC that most young people he has met -- even very conservative Republicans in college -- tend to be more accepting of same-sex couples.
Obama said daughters Malia and Sasha believe discrimination against gay marriage "doesn't make sense to them and frankly, that's the kind of thing that prompts a change in perspective."
First lady Michelle Obama has also shaped his outlook, Obama said.
"This is something that, you know, we've talked about over the years and she, you know, she feels the same way, she feels the same way that I do," Obama said.
The president said he and Mrs. Obama "are both practicing Christians and obviously this position may be considered to put us at odds with the views of others."
"But, you know, when we think about our faith, the thing at root that we think about is, not only Christ sacrificing himself on our behalf," he added, "but it's also the Golden Rule, you know, treat others the way you would want to be treated."
Obama's decision is drawing a variety of strong reactions on social media.
ABC News, meanwhile, prepared a handy "timeline" of Obama statements on gay marriage:
FEBRUARY 1996: "I favor legalizing same-sex marriages, and would fight efforts to prohibit such marriages," reads a typed, signed statement from then-Illinois state senate candidate Obama in response to a questionnaire by the Chicago LGBT newspaper "Outlines." White House Communications Director Dan Pfeiffer later publicly disavowed the statement, claiming in June 2011 that the questionnaire was "actually filled out by someone else."
OCTOBER 2004: " What I believe is that marriage is between a man and a woman … What I believe, in my faith, is that a man and a woman, when they get married, are performing something before God, and it's not simply the two persons who are meeting," then-U.S. Senate candidate Obama said in an interview with WTTW Chicago public television.
"That doesn't mean that that necessarily translates into a position on public policy or with respect to civil unions. What it does mean is that we have a set of traditions in place that, I think, need to be preserved, but I also think we need to make sure that gays and lesbians have the same set of basic rights that are in place.
"I don't think marriage is a civil right," Obama said when asked whether there's an inherent right to marry.
OCTOBER 2010: "I have been to this point unwilling to sign on to same-sex marriage primarily because of my understandings of the traditional definitions of marriage," President Obama said during an interview with liberal bloggers. "But I also think you're right that attitudes evolve, including mine. And I think that it is an issue that I wrestle with and think about because I have a whole host of friends who are in gay partnerships."
DECEMBER 2010: "My feelings about this are constantly evolving. I struggle with this. At this point, what I've said is, is that my baseline is a strong civil union that provides them the protections and the legal rights that married couples have," Obama said in response to a question from ABC's Jake Tapper at a White House press conference.
"I recognize that from their perspective it is not enough, and I think is something that we're going to continue to debate and I personally am going to continue to wrestle with going forward," he said.
JUNE 2011: "The president has never favored same-sex marriage. He is against it. The country is evolving on this, and he is evolving on it," Pfeiffer told progressive activists at the Net Roots Nation conference.
JUNE 2011: "I think it's important for us to work through these issues because each community is going to be different, each state is going to be different," Obama said when asked during a White House press conference about New York becoming the latest state to legalize same-sex marriage.
"I think what you're seeing is a profound recognition on the part of the American people that gays and lesbians and transgender persons are our brothers, our sisters, our children, our cousins, our friends, our co-workers, and that they've got to be treated like every other American," he said. "And I think that principle will win out. It's not going to be perfectly smooth, and it turns out that the President -- I've discovered since I've been in this office -- can't dictate precisely how this process moves."
OCTOBER 2011: "I'm still working on it," Obama said when asked by ABC's George Stephanopoulos whether he would move from supporting civil unions for same-sex couples to supporting gay marriage.
"I probably won't make news right now, George. But I think that there's no doubt that as I see friends, families children of gay couples who are thriving, you know, that has an impact on how I think about these issues."

ISLETON -- Hay, dust and even the occasional cowboy hat blew across the dirt floor of the rodeo arena in Isleton on Sunday as a very stiff delta breeze replaced Saturday's stifling heat during the two-day Rodeo on the River.
According to many attendees of the 9th annual event, Saturday's rodeo was one of sweltering temperatures in the 100-plus degree range, with no breeze whatsoever. Sunday, however, steady winds blew through the area, bringing some cooling, but adding a great deal of dust and debris to the air.

It was 108 degrees outside on a recent Sunday. Inside The Gaslight Theatre, the air is cool as the band warms up the audience with "Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini." Really now, how could you refuse such an event?
Not convinced? Here's another reason: Gaslight's current offering, "The Incredible Spider-Guy," is a complete hoot.
It's a new play from the sometimes twisted, always corn-filled mind of Peter Van Slyke, who also directs this delicious spoof.
The Peter Parker character from the comic is Billy Baker here. The love of Peter's life, Mary Jane Watson, is given the moniker Mary Lou Peterson.
You might find a few similar adventures between the Spiderman and Spider-Guy characters, and he and Mary Lou share an upside-down kiss much like the one in the hot scene from the 2002 movie.
But the Gaslight version has dialogue and antics you'd never find in the comic or movie.
Such as intermittent rock 'n' roll songs to punctuate a point. Or not. Songs such as "Hang on Spidey, Spidey hang on" to the tune of "Hang On Sloopy."
And bad jokes: "Don't make me get ugly," warns one character.
"Too late," snaps another in reply.
You get the idea.
What made "Spider-Guy" particularly delicious at this Sunday matinee was the genuine joy with which this cast of characters performed.
Jake Chapman's Billy/Spider-Guy was a clumsy geek as Billy, smooth and graceful as Spider-Guy.
Mary Lou was given an innocence and honest effervescence by Tarreyn Van Slyke (the playwright/director's daughter).
Playing the bad guys with just the right amount of menace were Jacob Brown as Edgar Junior, a spoiled classmate of Billy's and Mary Lou's; David Orley as Junior's pop, E. Edgar Eagleton, the publisher of the local paper who isn't above taking a bribe or two for a story; Todd Thompson, who gave the evil business mogul Mathias Maxwell-turned-Green-Gremlin a sinister edge that would have made Spiderman's creators, Stan Lee and Steve Ditkon, shudder; and Heather Stricker as Maxwell's assistant Velma Vultura. The character is Russian. Or Czech. Or of indeterminate origin. She walks like a vamp and acts like a devil. Stricker was a stitch.
Filling out the cast was Janee Page as Mackenzie Maxwell, a spoiled valley girl with a knock-out voice; Mike Yarema as the good-guy-turned-bad-turned good, Dr. Cornelius Crocodilius, aka Doc Croc, and Cass Anaya as Billy's kind-hearted Uncle Gus, who gave Spider-Guy his not-too-catchy motto: "With great power comes great accountability."
The story is about what you'd expect: Bad guys want to rule the world; good guys want to save it. Damsel in distress and a hero to rescue her. And so on.
And the sets are about what you'd expect from designer Tom Benson: inventive, witty and most effective.
Tucson's summers don't give us a lot to laugh about - we're generally too busy seeking out air conditioned places. The Gaslight, however, is a place to forget the heat and indulge in silly antics.
And to sing along to "Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini."
What's not to love about that?
• What: The Gaslight Theatre's "The Incredible Spider-Guy."
• Playwright/director: Peter Van Slyke.

Thanks for Rev. Gigi's Genealogy.
As I expect you are aware, the section about Ireland is mixed up (as in
Margaret Pilcher's book) and several efforts at research there have so far
failed to clarify the facts, while the rest may be fine.
The 18th century family genealogy found recently shows:
Duncan = (not Mary McCoy but) Mary Ramsay of the Dalhouse family (Scotland)
their son:
John Campbell
had a son:
John Campbell = Mary McCoy?
had a son:
John Campbell = Grizzle Hay (Grizzle was Scots for Grace)
had two sons:
(1)Patrick Campbell (living in 1752) = Elizabeth Taylor and (2)David
Campbell = Mary Hamilton
Patrick & Elizabeth had a son:
Charles Campbell = Margaret Buchanan
Their son was Gen. William Campbell
of King's Mountain
David Campbell, (2 above) and Mary Hamilton (whose father's mother was dau.
of John C. & Mary)
had a son Arthur Campbell = his cousin Margaret, sis. of Gen. Wm C.
had a son William Campbell.
I hope this helps.

Dream Catcher Family Tree Crest
Dream Catcher Family TreeThis is a drawing of one of the three Campbell
dream catcher family crest trees. It is a family crest I designed with the
feathers from a dream catcher placed around it like they are in a dream
catcher, with the names of the family members as parent to child are placed
within the feathers.
This is one of the first dream catcher family trees I drew, and the family
names are within the dream catchers, and the childrens names are within the
How the geneology bug bit me.
I first started learning about family trees in sixth grade, through an
assignment that was given the class. Through asking older family members,
and listening to their stories of family I found myself enchanted, and my
thurst for knowing the family background began. At that time I could only
find out about one side of my family, but it was very interesting learning
about when the family had come over from Germany, and that there was a
bootlegger in the family.
After years of putting it down, I became reunited with the other side of my
family and through them once again picked up my quest, and through many
questions, and stories I was able to trace the roots back to Ireland, and
Scotland, along with hearing the stories about a great grandmother whom was
Cherokee, and it was said that her knowledge of plants, and such, along with
her tracking skills is what keep the family alive.
"To live in peace one must first walk the path of learning, loving, and
accepting." Rev Gigi

OCC's New Residential Mortgage Lending Guidelines
Lending Partnerships with Community-Based Organizations
A Look Inside...
This issue of Community Developments focuses on the new data reporting requirements of the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) and the opportunities that the data will create for bankers and other financial institutions to target mortgage products and services to millions of households who are eager to own their own homes — but who may represent an elevated credit risk to lenders.
As the so-called subprime market has grown in recent years, so have efforts to serve it efficiently and fairly. For banks, partnering with community-based housing counseling organizations can be an especially effective way to improve outreach to underserved households, leveraging banks' internal resources and reducing the risks associated with lending to borrowers with credit blemishes or a nontraditional credit profile.
Key to the success of these partnerships is proactive financial education — helping prospective borrowers understand what's involved in managing money and creating creditworthiness, and then helping them develop strategies to meet their regular, ongoing financial obligations. Partnering with housing counseling groups to promote financial literacy can help bankers create — and serve — a pool of creditworthy borrowers that might otherwise be ignored or beyond reach. And, in so doing, bankers can broadly improve their outreach to communities in need.
Clearly, it's important for all concerned to know more about the subprime mortgage market and to know how the new HMDA reporting requirements can help participants in that market meet the needs of more prospective homeowners. We offer the articles and insights in this issue as part of the OCC's contribution to this initiative.
