Hello! My name is Chelsea and I blog over at Tea Talk. I'm a full-time grad student, freelance journalist, and Phoenix enthusiast who is obsessed with personal style, photography, and iced coffee. My sweet boyfriend, Scott, and I absolutely love taking photos of our adventures, and really love how easy my smartphone has made taken photos on the go for us. But lately I really love how easy my smart phone has made taking photos on the go. Here are some of my favorite tips for better smart phone photos.
1. Look for unique angles and use them to your advantage. Look up, look down!
2. A flash is convenient, but natural light is your friend!
3. Use a tri-pod or mount, like the Oona, for steady photos and self portraits.
4. Using photo-enhancing applications like Instagram and Hipstamatic can help you create more interesting photos with your smartphone. They also are great for giving you an opportunity to share your photos with other photography enthusiasts.
5. Smart phones make it so easy to snap a picture anywhere and at any time. If you spot something beautiful, don't think twice-take a photo of it. Chances are that someone else will think it's beautiful as well.
We are so happy to announce that UncommonGoods is now posting photos on Instagram as @UncommonGoods. We would love to follow back and see what you are snapping.

Thanks for your help . I am a newbie in silvertripe so it would be nice if you can answer further like i had already the video module
class VideoAdmin extends ModelAdmin {
private static $managed_models = array('Video');
private static $url_segment = 'video';
private static $menu_title = 'Video';
HOw can i add getCMSValidator to validate the video title based on the following DataObject

Should Children Be Kept Off Trampolines [Poll]
While driving around the Tri-State on any given day, it is amazing how many back yards have trampolines. Some have the safety nets, that are usually required for insurance purposes, and some without nets at all. My boys had a trampoline in the back yard until just recently when a tear in the pad got bigger and bigger. The American Academy of Pediatrics said today that trampolines are too dangerous for children in light of more than 100,000 trampoline injuries reported in 2009.

In Nov. I purchased an HP desktop computer with VISTA from Best Buy. I specifically asked for a computer that would play games well. Now the last two games I purchased from Big Fish games dragged in low motion. I contacted their tech and he told me:
"Unfortunately, we've noted a lot of problems with the 6150 card that you have, particularly with Vista machines... the card is NOT compatible with Flash, which games like Laura Jones and Woman's Murder Club use. Do you have a computer with Windows XP loaded, by any chance?"
Is he insinuating my old beat up computer with XP would play it and Vista can't?
Is there anything I can do to fix the problem?

Ask a Mechanic Online and Get Answers to Your Car Questions
So tell me...is the car starting now with the new battery?
You are just after the dome light and radio illumination.
Is this correct?
Hello againCustomer
I've done a bit more studying on the electrical schematic on your vehicle.
With a 12volt test lamp, check to be sure there is power at the 10 amp PARK fuse in the underhood junction block.
If there is power to both sides of the 10 amp PARK fuse, then we will need to do some checking with the headlamp switch and dimmer switch on the dash.
A problem here, may have caused the battery to go dead as well.
Let me know
One of the first steps you need to take at your end to help me help you find your problem.
Check the large terminal at the Starter Motor. There should be a larger Battery Cable and a Blue Fusible Link connected on the terminal. Be sure the connection is secure and check to be sure the fusible link is not burned.
The fusible link runs from the starter to the Alternator. Check the back of the alternator to be sure the connection there is good. Make sure the fusible link is ok under the insulation, by gently pulling on the blue fuse link. If it stretches, it is bad.
If you have checked these connections and cannot find a problem, then at minimum, I will need to work with you with a 12volt test lamp.
I will need to know by your tests with the test lamp, where we have power and were we don't.
Check the items I have mentioned in this post and my previous post, and let me know what you find.
I would also need to know if the vehicle is equipped with any type of aftermarket alarm.
And does your vehicle have keyless entry and security system.
There are some wiring issues in the left front door area that can cause everything you are experiencing. This is a common problem.
There is a technical service bulletin that addresses this issue.
ISSUE DATE: September, 1999
GROUP/SEQ. NO.: Electrical-03
SUBJECT:Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) or Security System Inoperative and/or EngineWill Not Crank, Power Door Locks Inoperative or IntermittentlyInoperative, Power Windows Inoperative, Power Mirror Inoperative, DoorSpeaker Volume Cutting Out, 1OA BODY Fuse Open or 1OA CHIME FuseOpen (Repair Body Wiring Harness)
MODELS AFFECTED:1996 - 1999 Saturn S-Series Sedans and Wagons
CONDITION:Customer may comment that on occasion, one or more of the following conditions occur:
Power mirror inoperative. (Must be equipped with RPO code D35.) Front door speaker volume cuts out intermittently.
CAUSE:The cause of the above conditions may be the main body to front door wire harness coming into contact with front door hinge reinforcement bracket. (Refer to illustration.)
The harness is routed into the front doors through a grommet as it enters the outer door structure. It is then routed across the front door hinge reinforcement (about 51 mm [2 in.] from end of grommet) before it is anchored by a rosebud. Depending on variation in either the manufacturing or routing of the wire harness, there is a chance that the wire harness can come into contact with hinge reinforcement bracket and chafe, causing a short to ground on one or more of the circuits listed in this bulletin.
Even if you decide that these checks may be too much, this information will give you a heads-up when you take the vehicle to a technician for diagnosis and repair.
You should now be armed with a likely cause for your Saturn Battery,No-start and interior lighting information. Any questions, let me know.
Take Care
Yes, a multi-meter will work fine.
OK, so the old battery may be OK anyway.
So you didn't have any system voltage at the 10 amp PARK fuse.
Set the meter on the next step above the 12v scale, usually about a 20V DC scale, and connect the black negative lead of the meter to a good ground on the engine or negative battery cable....and probe with the Red positive lead.
Most fuses can now be checked without even pulling them out of the socket. Probe each side on the top and you get batt voltage on both sides of the fuse, it's good.
You see no 12 volts there at the PARK fuse and we need to backtrace a bit.
So do you have 12volts on the post on the back of the alternator? And there is a Fusible Link at the alternator too.
And do you have 12 volts on both sides of the 30amp IGN4 fuse in the underhood junction block and IP BATT 30 amp fuse?
If either of the 30amp fuses are not receiving their 12 volt power , you need to check the Positive Battery Cable. Coming off of the Positive cable right at the battery, is a large cable running down to the starter, and the small one running over to the Underhood Junction Block.
You will need to check the small Red Wire going from the battery to the Junction block.
Make sure at the ring terminal where it connects at the junction block is clean and secure. And receiving 12volts from the battery.
This should be getting us close to a solution.
Let me know how it goes.
Go through and let's see if we can do these checks without the need of any additional special tools.
That brings us right back to the Bulletin I sent you.
If yours is a Sedan or Wagon.
Check 10 A Body fuse and 10 AMp Body fuse.
Then step by step through the Bulletin.
If you need the wiring schematics, let me know.
Need to go through the steps to verify your vehicle

TotGC Guide: Anub'arak
by Sunfyre on Nov.26, 2009, under General
I figure it's been long enough since I've updated my TotGC guide, I should probably update it with Anub'arak, and the strategy we (Seriously Casual) use to down it. We usually use two warriors, with one in a full block set tanking adds. (3500 gearscore, anyone?)
Phase 1
Okay, phase 1 is fairly straight forward. I blow my treants right away (they should be up again before phase 3) and begin to direct damage the boss. Once the 4 adds come out and the tank has them (hunters misdirect), I blow Starfall, and do one Hurricane cast.
I do NOT hurricane a second time, because adds will begin dying during the middle of the second hurricane, and it's a big DPS loss. The melee who are cleaving should have no problem finishing them. I refresh dots and resume DPS on Anub'arak. When the second round of adds appear, I again throw down one hurricane before returning to Anub'arak.
Phase 2 (Burrow phase)
The way we do the burrow phase is a ping pong method. We never burn the ice patch which we've been using to tank him on (slightly offcenter to the left as you face Anub'arak at the beginning). The first person followed runs to the south (entrance) side of the room, and a ice patch is dropped for them to run behind. We BoP them at the last minute. The second person takes Anub'arak back near where we tanked him at the north side, however an ice patch is dropped off center right for him to be kited to. We also BOP again. The third person kites Anub'arak until he re-appears, and the tank drags him back to the initial ice patch. During this initial burrow, I may throw a hurricane down if I have adequate range from Anub, if there are still 4 adds up, or I'll single target them down. Once they are down I go after the scarabs one at a time. If your talent build supports typhoon (even glyphed), this is a great place to use it, as the 6 second daze affect can really help people stay away from their attacks and nasty stacking debuff.
Usually phase 1 and 2 repeat themselves twice. On the third "phase 1″, we push Anub'arak to 30% or phase 3.
Phase 3
I blow treants at about 31% because I know [spell]bloodlust[/spell] or [spell]heroism[/spell] is coming once we push him over. I continue to DPS like I did in phase 1, and switch to throw down a hurricane whenever the four adds come in.
The important thing here is to watch your health. We all blow a frost pot at the beginning of the phase, but that won't save you. If I end up with [spell]penetrating cold[/spell] debuff, I first blow barkskin, then once my health dips to below 3k, I use a health stone. Usually judgement of light on the adds+Anub'arak is enough to heal you. The melee have it a bit easier, as they generally have iLotP, although I know some guilds have their ferals dump it due to the excessive healing. Healers need the most help as they're not DPSing for judgement of light. An improved Healing Stream totem works well, and so does a well timed rank 2 wild growth or holy nova by a priest. Healers may find benefit in using GridStatusHealthLeft, a mod I blogged about a few months ago, written by a good friend, Firstaidspec of Blood Legion (US-Illidan).
At this point it really is the healers show, and a DPS race against time. Healers must ensure they do not heal too much, but heal enough to keep the entire raid alive and keep the tanks alive. Generally, the weak link (besides random disconnects) is a healer dying due to lack of judgement of light and not enough group healing, and from there, their penetrating cold heal target dies, and it continues to domino effect into a wipe.
Hope this guide helps, I'll try to take some photos next time to give a better visual explanation, or perhaps fraps it.
Finally, Anub'arak.
by Sunfyre on Oct.20, 2009, under General
After my second week in Seriously Casual, they allowed me in on their Anub'arak kill. I'll post some strats on it shortly, and hopefully sometime soon a video. Notice, like most other balance druids, my DPS is bottom of the barrel. (They had me Hurricane the adds.)
Anub'arak update
by Sunfyre on Sep.28, 2009, under General
Not much more to update on [npc]34564[/npc]. Still struggling in phase 3, or more recently, even getting to phase 3. After looking at our own parses and other guilds parses who've killed him, this just doesn't seem to be a good fight for moonkin dps. I think our best option is to stay on Anub'arak, and only AoE when adds are up right after he burrows, but that still keeps me in the bottom quartile.
Anub'arak P3: GridStatusHealthLeft
by Sunfyre on Sep.27, 2009, under General
A friend of mine, Firstaidspec from Blood Legion (US-Illidan) sent me an AddOn he had written for phase 3 Anub'arak. It displays the absolute health of all those in raid below 1500hp. Bind it to "Center Text 2″, and if you have anything bound to Center Icon, consider moving it to side icons with an addon similar to GridIndicatorSideIcons. Hopefully this, along with a [spell]Healing Stream Totem[/spell] and occaisional [spell]Holy Nova[/spell] will help you keep your healers alive during [spell]Leeching swarm[/spell].
You can download it here.
Progression Update: Anub'arak Phase 3 (Heroic)
by Sunfyre on Sep.21, 2009, under General
In case you're curious on Forceful Entry's progression, we're still pounding away at phase 3 Anub'arak. We can safely get to phase 3, but that's when all hell breaks loose. Congratulations to Blood Legion US-Illidan on being the first US Horde guild to kill Anub'arak. CUTIES ONLY of Kil'jaeden wasn't far behind.
Disclaimer: If you look at my talent spec and wonder why it's .. odd, it's due to this fight. Anub'arak is a very AoE intensive fight and I've spec'd as such. Once we manage to down him I'll post more details on our strategy.
Heroic Anub'arak to phase 3
by Sunfyre on Sep.16, 2009, under Rants
So far after our first week of attempts, we were able to get Anub'arak solidly to phase 3.
We haven't perfected our strategy yet, so I don't want to really comment a whole lot on the strategy until we actually get it down to a science. I will however mention that [spell]Gale Winds[/spell] is pretty vital for this fight to deal with the [npc]Nerubian Burrower[/npc]s, and also to rant about how my dps is a slave to [spell]Clearcasting[/spell] proc's, which dictates whether I can chain [spell]Hurricane[/spell] when the burrowers are up, or whether I have to stop and direct DPS Anub'arak while I wait for mana to regen.

During a recent interview, the Detroit-native rapper says that getting his eighth studio album done is the most exciting part of working on it.
Detroit rapper Eminem got his fans excited when he announced that his new album, "Marshall Mathers LP 2" ("MMLP2"), was coming later this year. The highly-anticipated new album, whose title and release date were revealed during the MTV Video Music Awards back in August, is now set to arrive on November 5.
Marking his first solo set since 2010's "Recovery", Eminem's forthcoming eight studio album is co-produced by longtime producer Dr. Dre, NO ID and Rick Rubin among others. It serves as the sequel to "The Marshall Mathers LP", which hit No. 1 on Billboard 200 thirteen years ago.
"Marshall Mathers LP 2" has spawned a single called "Berzerk", which debuted at Billboard 100's No. 3. The Rubin-produced track samples Billy Squier's "The Stroke", as well as the Beastie Boys' "The New Style" and "Fight for Your Right".
The music video for the track was shot in Detroit and New York by director James Larese. Featuring cameo appearances from Rubin, Kid Rock and Kendrick Lamar, the 1990s-inspired clip was premiered earlier this month on ABC/ESPN's "Saturday Night Football", where Eminem made an awkward appearance during the game's halftime broadcast.
At that time, Eminem was asked what made him excited about the new album album. The 40-year-old star responded simply, "Nothing." He then continued to explain, "I'll probably be most excited to just be done with it. It's called 'The Marshall Mathers LP 2' and it's kind of a revisit to the first 'Marshall Mathers LP'. That's pretty much all I can probably say about it."

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -
Wyoming senior Shaylee Babbitt and Air Force senior David Lissy have been selected as the Mountain West Conference Women's and Men's Indoor Track and Field Athletes of the Week, respectively.
Babbitt ran the 55-meter hurdles in 7.84 seconds to take the meet title at the Robert Shine Invitational last weekend held in Laramie, Wyo. Her performance ties four-time All-American fellow Cowgirl Shauna Smith for the venue record at the War Memorial Field House, and ranks as the second-fastest time in the event in Wyoming history. Hailing from Yoder, Wyo., Babbitt's time was a career-best and her converted 60-meter time (8.45) now ranks first in the league.
Lissy, from Sandpoint, Idaho, won the shot put while also competing in the Robert Shine Invitational. His 57'-0.75" (17.39m) throw was a career-best and put him in first place for the event in the league heading into the Conference championships this weekend. The mark was also long enough to move into fourth place all-time in Air Force history.
This marks Lissy's first career weekly honor and the first time an Air Force student-athlete has won the award this season. Babbitt also receives her first career weekly honor and represents Wyoming's only female student-athlete to earn the award this season.

The second number was 50 percent too high—and wasn't actually attributed to the registry.
They found 30 attempts for donors to pay for kidneys through the registry, and each of these users was banned from the site.
In the registry, the settler population is always a few percent above the more accurate CBS figure.
He also wrote that the registry lists 385,000 settlers in the rest of the West Bank.
Every state has its own registry; 34 states register youth offenders.
The Ontario registry has five district offices, as well as the central one at Toronto.

- [chirping]
- Squidward: What a sun-tastic day! [slips on Gary's snail trail] Snail trail. [Gary looks through a window as Squidward mops up the trail] That SpongeBob needs to keep his pet out of my yard. I am sick of cleaning up after him.
- Gary: Meow. [Squidward discovers Gary leaving trail all over his pet rock collection]
- Squidward: Not my pet rock collection. [growls, and starts jumping up and down] That's it! This isn't the first time you've soiled my yard with your revolting excretions. But mark this down in your little notebook: it will be the last time! [Later, Squidward puts up a force field of wood all around his house] This cheap, splintering wood will keep even Gary out. Now, I feel safe. [Gary's trail drops all over him] SpongeBob!
- SpongeBob: Hi, Squidward.
- Squidward: [calmly] Hey, SpongeBob... [screaming] Keep your shell vermin off of my property! The next time, my annoyingly yellow neighbor, your wet pet oozes on my lawn, you leave me no choice but to call Snail Control. That little monster... [Gary bites Squidward's butt. stutters] He bit me!
- SpongeBob: [pulling Gary away] Gary! No, dirty boy. This isn't like you.
- Squidward: Oh, but it's just like you, SpongeBob, to raise such a misbehaved mutt.
- SpongeBob: Gary's not misbehaved!
- Gary: [growling]
- SpongeBob: But there does appear to be something wrong with him.
- Squidward: I'll say. I hope he had his shots.
- SpongeBob: Oh, of course.
- Squidward: All of his shots?
- SpongeBob: Affirmatory.
- Squidward: For rabies?
- SpongeBob: Yup.
- Squidward: Snail pox and soft shell dance?
- SpongeBob: Yupie.
- Squidward: Bronchitis, lumpy-bump trump, teen angst?
- SpongeBob: Yup, yup, yup.
- Patrick: [suddenly appearing] Well, let's not forget the worst of them all: Mad Snail Disease.
- SpongeBob: Uhh...
- Patrick: You mean your pet hasn't been vaccinated for mad snail disease? [to Squidward] Looks like the rash has already started.
- Squidward: Rash?
- Patrick: Tell me, do you have any soreness of throat?
- Squidward: [gulps] Well, now that you mention it, my throat is a little dry.
- Patrick: This disease will ravage your body with bloodshot eyes, loss of balance, messy pants, ticklish rib cage, severely untrimmed toenails, and finally, the bite from that infected snail will turn you into... A zombie.
- Squidward: [freaks out; screams, then runs off crying loudly.]
- Patrick: [To SpongeBob] You need to get that snail of yours to a doctor before he bites someone important. [both gasp once they see that Gary is missing] There's a mad snail on the loose! [runs off screaming]
- SpongeBob: Gary? Gary?! Gary?! Gary?!
- Patrick: [runs up to a couple] That mad snail is coming! If he bites you, you'll turn into a zombie.
- Fish: Jeepers, what's with all the lunatics? [Gary crawls up]
- Fish's Wife: Oh look, honey, isn't he the cutest? [Gary is panting]
- Fish: Come here, little buddy. [pets Gary] He's just adorable. [Gary bites him] Mad snail disease is real! I'm a zombie. I've been bitten by a mad snail. I've got mad snail disease!
- Fish #2: Then I've got it! A snail just bit me, too! [all screaming]
- Frank: [screams; all look at their hands and scream]
- Johnny: We interrupt this program to bring you a news blast. Terror in a shell. This just in... fear and disease is spreading like wildfire as a killer snail has been biting the citizens of Bikini Bottom infecting them with... mad snail disease. [(two scream sound effects are played at once. One of them is from the "Hooky" episode, the other one is one audible from the show Rocko's Modern Life.] Ask any old fish on the street and they'll tell you that germs enter through the bite radius, traveling upstream until the entire host body is full of... mad snail disease. [the same sound effect from above can be heard] We now take you to Action News Reporter Perch Perkins live on the scene.
- Perch Perkins: Perch Perkins here with the first victim of this epidemic. Tell me Mr Tentacles, when did you first begin to suspect that you were a zombie?
- Squidward: Well, after I was bitten by a mad snail, I began to get a rash; followed by loss of balance, ticklish rib cage, and a few other symptoms.
- Frank: [wearing red shirt] Hey, I was bitten by a snail. I kinda feel off balance. [falls over] Whoa.
- Perch Perkins: Hey, I have a ticklish rib cage, too. And I haven't even been bitten.
- Frank: [wearing red shirt] Oh no, it's spreading through the air! [all scream]
- Perch Perkins: Well, you heard it here first. We're all doomed to a horrible demise. Thanks to a diseased snail. [screams and runs around in circles; TV static then back on; still screaming]
- SpongeBob: [shocked due to the news; people screaming] Gary? [horn honking] I can't believe that sweet and slimy snail would cause all this destruction.
- Squidward: [moaning] I'm a zombie, here to dine on your squishy yellow flesh. [moaning like a zombie. Some of the people moan and are zombies. SpongeBob screaming and takes a bus; SpongeBob still screaming and running to the Krusty Krab] It's locked! [all moaning] Somebody let me in.
- Mr. Krabs: SpongeBob, come in, boy. And bring your friends in, too. They look hungry. [uses key to open]
- Frank: Stop! You can't let anyone in!
- Mr. Krabs: But they just want to dine on some Krabby Patties.
- Frank: They're zombies. They only want to dine on our flesh.
- Mr. Krabs: Arrgh, alright, but it's coming out of your paycheck.
- Frank: I don't work here.
- SpongeBob: But Mr. Krabs, it's me, SpongeBob.
- Mr. Krabs: But how do we know you haven't become one of those voracious flesh-eaters?
- SpongeBob: Could a voracious flesh-eater do this? [he uses his body to slide through the door]
- Mr. Krabs: SpongeBob, it's you.
- SpongeBob: That's right. So let me in before I'm eaten.
- Mr. Krabs: Yeah, that's SpongeBob all right.
- Patrick: Or is it?
- SpongeBob: Huh?
- Patrick: I don't believe that's the real SpongeBob. He looks pretty zombie-fied. Just look at how yellow he is.
- SpongeBob: Come on, Patrick, would a zombie have a picture of his best buddy in his wallet? [shows picture]
- Patrick: Perhaps not. Now, I got my eye on you!
- Old Man Jenkins: If you could pull out your eye and put it on him, wouldn't that make... You a zombie too?
- Patrick: You're right. [alarmed] I'm a zombie!
- Old Man Jenkins: Who's to say we're not all zombies?! [all scream]
- Gary: Meow. [slithers out of the kitchen]
- All: The snail!
- SpongeBob: Gary! Are you okay, buddy? Come here, boy.
- Harold: No, don't get near it. Oh, the pity of it all!
- Evelyn: [to Harold] I can't watch. [faints into Harold's arms]
- SpongeBob: All those people think you're a monster. But I know you're just a snail. [screaming after Gary bites him] Gary... [sniffling] How could you?
- All: [gasp]
- Harold: SpongeBob's been infected by his own pet snail. Oh, the irony! Quick, we must quarantine that infected snail before he bites every last Bikini Bottomite. Let's get the snail!
- All: Yeah!
- SpongeBob: No, don't hurt him.
- Harold: Hand over the snail.
- Mr. Krabs: It's... for his own good, SpongeBob.
- SpongeBob: No, I won't let you touch Gary.
- Harold: Stop the madness, man. The Mad Snail Disease ends now. Seize the snail!
- Doctor Gill Gilliam: Halt! Did someone say 'Mad Snail Disease'? Is that what all this is about?
- Patrick: Yeah. What do you know about it?
- Doctor Gill Gilliam: Funny you should ask. Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Doctor Gill Gilliam. S.D.E. and S.E.
- SpongeBob: S.D.E. and S.E.?
- Doctor Gill Gilliam: Snail disease expert and snail expert. I'm sorry to break this to you all, but that 'mad snail disease' you're talking about doesn't exist.
- All: Huh?
- Doctor Gill Gilliam: That's right. No such thing. It's an old urban legend. A myth.
- Patrick: Well, does that mean we're not zombies?
- Doctor Gill Gilliam: Of course not. No one is. It's just mass hysteria.
- Nathiel: But what about my severely untrimmed...
- Doctor Gill Gilliam: Those are only moderately untrimmed. All the supposed symptoms are just common ailments.
- SpongeBob: [holding Gary back] Easy boy. But what about Gary then? If he doesn't have a disease, why'd he bite all those people, including me?
- Doctor Gill Gilliam: Hmmm... mm-hmm. Ahh! The problem's right here. He's got a little splinter in his foot. [The doctor pulls out the splinter and Gary is now back to normal, a zoom out shows that the splinter was one of Squidward's logs, just as an example] I'm sure this was the cause of his distemper making for serious grouchy snailitis.
- SpongeBob: Oh, Gary, I knew you weren't disease-ridden. You still love me?
- Gary: Meow.
- SpongeBob: Good ol' Gary's back. [Sandals, Bill, Nathaniel, Charlie and VB get mad when Squidward comes in and keeps acting like a zombie] Squidward? You're not a zombie, remember?
- Squidward: Oh, yes I am. [Nathaniel walks up to order] Welcome to the Krusty Krab. May I take your order?
- Mr. Krabs: All's well that ends well.
- [Gary bites Mr. Krabs]
- Mr. Krabs: Ow! [tries to kill the pain, then looks at Gary]

The thing that struck me about GayPanda having no results from 70% fat, and then getting results on 80%, is that the general population(and even much of the primal one) would consider 70%fat a crazy high percentage. To tell them, 'no, you need even MORE fat' would not be well received. I'm impressed that GayPanda even went there. I have always been a proponent of trying a FatFast(90%) for stomping on cravings and getting into ketosis, but now I am wondering if it might be a good long term thing to consider.
No announcement yet.

Since January 1, I have dropped a total of 13 pounds. Down from 216 to 203. All my clothes are getting looser, including boots, shirts, jeans and sweats. My hair and nails seem to be thickening up as well. I am currently tied with my lowest weight of 203 in March, 2007 on the day my passed. That was the day that all weight loss stopped for me and I had a yo-yo existence.Georgette
I think the contrast between GP's success and Sigi's less than stellar situation (in the non-scale arena) shows why this whole weight loss thing is so darned hard. Every body is so different, and we all have to find our own sweet spot.
P, thanks for starting this thread and helping us to support each other in our quest for the elusive sweet spot!Chris

Sabine, I have been eating 80+% for most of the month. I am sticking to that.

Well, I lost a whopping .6 pounds since January 2. I had an low that was 4+ pounds lower than I am today but that was after the flu so I gained it back. I took my measurements and need to compare. I'll update when I check those other figures. I am not sure what this all means as I have no appetite eating this way which is good and I didn't gain which is good. I think I'll give it another month and see where that leads me. Hopefully, I'll get my act together and add in more exercise.
Congratulations Paula and everyone else who has had such great successes. I am glad you have found your answers to improved health. Onward and upward as they say.
I am so inspired to stay on this track by your success stories. I have not found GREAT success YET however:
I AM sleeping better (even with this crummy bronchitis)
I am not hungry
I am not tempted (when on protocol) by inflammatory foods
My clothes are looser
4 days clean with my eating..my next weigh in is Valentines Day.Karin

What am I doing? Depends on the day.
I hesitate to post, but hope others can find something useful
I went from 161ish to 167ish to 164.6 today. BUT, and this is important, I dropped out of NK on Christmas day and have only just barely managed to get back there. Therein was my problem - I spent all of January trying to get back there. I learned (and this is very personalized):
* I need the bulk of my fat from animal products (excluding most forms of dairy, except butter, because I am dairy-intolerant). Coconut oil, avocados, olives, etc. are great condiments, but don't give me enough satisfaction to keep my calories in check.
* Consistent with the above, sweet "fat bombs" do not work for me...unless they are made with lard, ghee, etc.
* I am EXTREMELY sensitive to "excess" carbs and protein. If I got beyond 2 or 3 grams over 20 g carbs (total) and 50 g protein, I drop right out of ketosis. This could be for a lot of reasons. I have been overweight my entire life. I've gone from 240 to 160-something. I had PCOS and am pretty confident I've battled insulin resistance.
* This is a real mental component to this. While I'm satisfied, I no longer have the "bulk" full experience. I used to eat A LOT of veggies and meat, while still hitting roughly the same calories. My portions now are SMALL. Again, it's not that I'm hungry, it's that mentally I'm used to eating more. And, at 50 g of protein for the day, that's not a lot of meat. I love meat.
* Planning. I travel a lot for work and have a lot of business meals. It's not impossible, but it is challenging, especially without dairy. I did not have time to experiment and figure out what I could travel with. This was problematic and what triggered a lot of the weight gain.
So, why I'm continuing?
* My acne, which only started in the last year (when I inadvertently went fairly low fat, upped the protein, and upped the veggies), is improving. When I hit NK, it almost completely disappears.
* I have energy I haven't had in a long time.
* My sleep, which has been poor for at least the last year, has improved by leaps and bounds.
* I feel like being active again, something that has been missing for so long.
* My mood has improved.
* {TMI alert). My monthly cramps, which could be beyond terrible, unless I ate truckloads of veggies during PMS week, has almost disappeared - even with the veggies dump!!!!
Also, the one week I was in NK, I dropped weight and felt great. I've now been back in NK for a few days (4?) and the weight gain (some of which may have been water) is going away. I will keep this up and see how February goes.-- Ruth

yes, my husband also has more than a few of the negative symptoms, but had an aunt who passed away at 42 from a heart attack, and his dad and his brothers all had early ones as well (all survived though). In DH's case fear is stronger than reason.Chris

My "Program": doing my version of a 4:3 - 3 day fast diet with real food every day, with a little twist of anti-inflammatory mixed in.
Results for my first month of Primal eating. Or getting closer to primal I should say. My meat is not pastured. I eat as much organic as possible. During the month I ate 2oz (yes I measured it) of bread once and movie popcorn once. I did not think letting go of grains would be this easy.
Up until October i was unemployed I was very active. Then had a surgery, then took a desk job in November. Weight went from 142 to 147. Then December traveling and holidays. Up to 152. Yikes! Highest in over a year. I thought the pounds would fall right off. Nope!
Up until the 21st I just focused on no grains or sugar. On the 21st, the Scale had not budged so I started adding fat. The scale started moving. The first week I hit my macros, the second week I eased up some.
January 1@ 151.6
January 21@ 151.6
February 1 @ 145.6. YAY!
My size 6 and 8 jeans are starting to fit better! My sleep is improving. I am trying to heal inflammation. I go between meals more easily. Coconut butter is my friend. Cream in my coffee is my friend. Perhaps one month I will try eating less dairy, but not yet.
I'm 62 and 5'4". I have a feeling being in the 130's would really suit me. I used to weigh 249.8 so I understand disordered eating and struggled for 55 years. I hope that PB will help me find balance with food/life. One day at a time, eating more fat!

Featuring a circular symbol, the promotional one-sheet teases with a tagline mentioning, 'Anyone can be chosen.'
Warner Bros. Pictures has dropped the first official promotional poster for "Green Lantern". Assembling black and green as the dominant colors, the image sees a circular symbol which has symmetrical lines on top and bottom of it.
Additionally, the poster features a tagline which reads, "Anyone can be chosen", on top of it. Below the symbol meanwhile, there are the film's title and release schedule. But instead of including the exact date of next year's June 17, it only mentions summer 2011.
"Green Lantern" will see Ryan Reynolds playing the titular character. The movie centers its story on Hal Jordan, the alter ego of Green Lantern, who is also an ordinary man chosen by a dying alien named Abin Sur to receive a green energy-powered ring used for protecting the planet.
Blake Lively will play Carol Ferris who is also Jordan's love interest. Mark Strong and Peter Sarsgaard additionally join the cast ensemble to portray villainous characters Sinestro and Hector Hammond respectively. Directed by Martin Campbell, this movie adaptation of DC Comics' character is still in production.

In this work micro temperature and humidity sensors are fabricated to measure the junction temperature and humidity of light emitting diodes (LED). The junction temperature is frequently measured using thermal resistance measurement technology. The weakness of this method is that the timing of data capture is not regulated by any standard. This investigation develops a device that can stably and continually measure temperature and humidity. The device is light-weight and can monitor junction temperature and humidity in real time. Using micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS), this study minimizes the size of the micro temperature and humidity sensors, which are constructed on a stainless steel foil substrate (40 μm-thick SS-304). The micro temperature and humidity sensors can be fixed between the LED chip and frame. The sensitivities of the micro temperature and humidity sensors are 0.06 ± 0.005 (Ω/°C) and 0.033 pF/%RH, respectively.
Light emitting diodes (LED), which are environmentally friendly, consume little power and have a long lifetime, have caused a revolution in illumination in the 21st century. They are favored because of their high reliability, low power consumption, and little-to-no-maintenance requirements. They have been adopted for a long time in various devices and computers as visual indicators of signal integrity and operational status. An LED is a solid-state semiconductor device that directly converts electrical energy into light. It is a strong candidate for the next generation of general illumination applications. Following further improvements, LEDs have recently been identified as illumination devices. High-power, high-brightness light emitting diodes are being used in an increasing number of lighting applications because of their excellent color saturation and long lifetimes. Preventing them from overheating is challenging task for thermal designers. The thermal management of packages depends on external cooling mechanisms, heat dissipation, and thermal interfaces. Under a fixed cooling condition, the rate of increase of the junction temperature of an LED increases with thermal resistance, reducing the luminescent efficiency declines. Therefore, the effective thermal design of LED packages with low thermal resistance is essential to improving the performance of LEDs [
As well as temperature, humidity factor significantly influences LED packaging. Moisture causes delaminating in electronic packages. LED packages are molded using polymeric materials. Such moisture diffuses into the package, which therefore swells. The package swells after absorbing moisture. Furthermore, the mismatching coefficients of moisture expansion (CMEs) induce hydro-mechanical stress in the package [
In this study, the micro temperature sensor was a resistance temperature detector (RTD). Among the various advantages of an array of thin film RTD sensors include a small volume, high accuracy, short response time, and mass production capacity. As Pt and Au are the conventionally adopted sensing materials in temperature sensors, the former is expensive while the latter has a higher conductivity and flexibility. Therefore, in this work, Au is used in the device [
When the temperature of the RTD varies linearly, the relationship between the measured resistance and the change in temperature can be expressed as:
The three main classes of humidity sensors are ceramic, electrolyte-based and polymer-based. Polymer-based sensors are either of the capacitance type or of the resistance type. Although the measurement range of the polymer-based sensor is not as large as that of the ceramic-based sensor, it is simply fabricated, low-cost, and highly accurate because of the high degree of polymer polymerization. It is useful for developing rapid IC processes. The polymer must have high resistance and a low dielectric constant. As the amount of vapor that is absorbed by the polymer increases, the dielectric constant increases and the increase in the capacitance can be derived using
The frame of the LED is a very important conductor of heat in an LED chip, so an insulating medium is installed between the frame of the LED and the LED chip to increase thermal resistance. The authors' earlier study involved the development of a flexible micro temperature sensor that could be installed between an LED chip and the frame. The design in the present work is based on that earlier work [
The junction temperature of the LED can be determined from the voltage based on the thermal resistance measurement theory. A CREE® EZ1000 chip and input currents ranging from 0 to 350 mA were used. Data obtained by thermal resistance measurement differed from those obtained using a micro temperature sensor. The data experimented is shown in
In the humidity portion, the capacitance that was measured by the humidity sensor was 21.98 pF both before and after packaging. This result suggests that the LED in this study was well-packaged.
In this study, flexible micro temperature and humidity sensors that could be set between an LED chip and an LED frame was developed, and a 40 μm-thick stainless steel foil was used to conduct heat between the LED chip and the frame. Flexible micro temperature and humidity sensors were fabricated using MEMS. These sensors have the advantages of: (1) small size, (2) high sensitivity, (3) mass-producability, (4) multi-functionality, and (5) flexible but precise measurement positions. A future study will adopt flexible micro temperature and humidity sensors to evaluate the operating parameters of LEDs and thus could improve their design and performance.

Speaking of propeller! Beth writes –
A few years ago, I implemented an S/PDIF encoder object for the Parallax Propeller. When I first wrote this object, I wrote only a very terse blog post on the subject. I rather like the simplicity and effectiveness of this project, so I thought I'd write a more detailed explanation for anyone who's curious about the gritty details.

There's volatility in the market, more so now than usual as the major indices go through a multi-month downturn to begin the summer. The properly prepared investor can trade and profit from that volatility. All options trading investors should know these four basics before they place another trade. Some of these facts are straight forward but as with all things options the facts can soon turn complicated.
1) All Option Trades Have a Volatility Component
Every option trade involves volatility exposure in one way or another. While it's intuitive for most traders that each trade usually involves a bullish or bearish directional stance, many overlook the fact that they are taking on a bullish or bearish volatility position too. Therefore, trading volatility is like trading the market itself – for maximum profits the trader strives to buy volatility cheaply and sell it when it's expensive. But this is easier said than done. To understand all that goes into analyzing volatility, let's first review the two types of volatility.
2) Historical Volatility
Historical volatility (often designated as HV, and also called realized volatility or statistical volatility) is the actual volatility occurring in the underlying security, measured in terms of the magnitude of recent price movement. Specifically, HV is the annualized standard deviation of an asset. This figure is stated as a percentage of the asset price. Even to non-option traders, HV is a helpful guide to compare the volatility of a stock with another stock or with itself over time. To state the obvious — the higher the number, the higher the volatility. So a stock with a 40% HV is more volatile than one with a 20% HV, and a stock with a current HV of 50% is more volatile than it was if its HV was 30% at some time in the past.
3) Implied Volatility
While HV looks back at actual asset prices, implied volatility (or "IV") looks forward. IV is generally interpreted as the market's consensus expectation for the future volatility of an asset. This figure is also stated in percentage terms and can be derived from the price of an option. Specifically, it is the expected future volatility of the underlying implied by the price of its options. For example, a stock with a 20% IV is expected (by the market as a whole) to experience less volatility than a stock with a 40% IV. The IV of an asset can also be compared with itself over time. For example, if a stock currently has an IV of 50% versus 30% in the past, the market now expects the stock to be more volatile than it previously did.
4) Analyze Volatility Charts
The common application of volatility data is studied by use of a volatility chart. A volatility chart tracks the volatility "level" over time for both HV and IV. It is a helpful visual aide because it makes it easy to compare HV with IV both currently and over time. Though these are helpful aides, they are often misinterpreted by novice traders with unfortunate consequences.
Volatility charts are one area where knowing just enough to be dangerous can be, well, dangerous. One solid place for learning about options volatility and analyzing charts is IVolatility.com. This site targets sophisticated traders so those getting started in options may be a little overwhelmed. But you can register for free and generate your own volatility charts.
