The Old HubPages Profile: A Historical Look At Hubpages Profiles
A nostalgic post about Hubpages in the early years. This hub was written back when we could hyperlink to other websites on our HubPages profile page, but this hub is still has use for Internet archival value for those who wish to see how the website functioned in the past. In twenty years this hub will be a time capsule illustrating what Hubpages looked like back in 2009.
Everyone has a different concept of style and you must do what feels right regarding your Hubpages profile. However, I would suggest making the most of this opportunity to promote your Hubs because this is the one place where you can do so with coming across as overly promotional. For instance, if you have a cafepress or zazzle store, share it with us in your profile page. Lately I have been looking at my Google Analytics and I have learned that changing the frequently changing the hyperlinks on my profile leading to my hubs has resulted in more traffic to those pages. On certain holidays such as Valentine's Day I will link the Hubs I have written on this topic, which makes it easier for readers to find. Here are a few things that I do to optimize traffic to my hubs and personal websites on my Hubpages profile description.
Link To Your Websites And Hubs
Often I see hub profile descriptions where people are linking to their favorite search engines, but how is that helping to bring you traffic? Most Internet users know how to find CNN, Yahoo, and Google, so I would rather use my profile description as a time to promote the hubs I have written and worked on. Besides are you the president, founder, or major writer on a website such as CNN? If so I can understand why someone would link to particular news story to share with the world. However, since I do not write for major news websites I would rather use my precious profile description space for talking about websites where I DO write and contribute. This is the ideal opportunity promote other websites where I write such as ehow, Squidoo, Helium, blogger, and my own website. Remember most people are not going to take an overly promotional hub or forum seriously, so use hubbing for writing about your favorite topics. This means you can use your profile as a specialized place for talking a few website where you may also write or have a business.
Do Not Forget To Include Hyperlinks
Often people will list some of their hubs or links to other website, but they forget to link to these. If there is a non-hyperlinked url then the viewer will have to cut and paste, which will cut down on the possibility of viewing this site. However, if the site is hyperlinked than moving the mouse over it will encourage people to click through. Sometimes you will even have people accidentally clicking through on the hubs and websites hyperlinked on your profile, which has accidentally happened to me quite a few times. Often I discover some great hubs and websites by accidentally clicking on hyperlinked words and links in the hubber's profile description, so do not forget to include these on your profile to maximize traffic to your favorite hubs and websites.
See How I Hyperlink Words To My Hubs And Websties
How To Hyperlink Text
I used to find this most difficult when I started writing on hubpages, but after digging around the site I finally figured out how to do this with ease.
Step One: Highlight The Text
Step Two: Click On The Hyperlink Tool
Step 3: Save Changes
Step Four: The Phrase Is Now Hyperlinked
Write About Rather Than List Hubs And Websites
My preference is to write about my hubs and profiles rather than just list these out. I continuously update my profile as I see fit, but writing paragraphs with hyperlinked words and phrases to my hubs and websites is my favorite method to obtaining traffic to my hubs. This is much easier than blogging about your hubs or submitting them to social networking sites such as Digg and Mix. I still do submit my hubs to those sites from time to time, but it is much easier to simply hyperlink key words and phrases in your profile description. Have fun creating a profile page that represents everything you want to be here on Hubpages.
Do you enjoy updating your Hubpages profile?
G'day SweetiePie, I had never considered my Profile to be all that important , and you have opened my eyes . I will be studying the above info more fully in the next few days and do a revamp on my own profile.
Thanks for this information and thumbs up from me! :-[)
btw nice photo, as usual!
We sure could do with some of that nice looking water in Melbourne at the moment.
We still have not had any significant rain this year. Yet the northern parts of Australia are flooded. Sorry to get off subject.
I do agree with you about overly promotional hubs I will not "comment" on them unless I feel the need! I guess you have to know when to draw the line.
Good one, SweetiePie! I'm not sure that I'll edit my profile, but I enjoyed your take on this, anyhow! :-)
Great info sweetiepie thanks for helping us have better hubs profiles .big thumbs up
Great! And hyperlinking - I need to do all these things - you make learning so easy.
Love how you change your picture by the way!
Thanks for this clear, informative, and user friendly hub.
This is great advice thanks - I need to review my own profile page I think when I have time!
Hi Sweetie-Pie,
My profile page has remained unchanged in the seven months I've been here. Everytime I look at my profile photo I think how dreadful it is, and the few garbled sentences I wrote by way of a personal summary could definitely do with updating. These are good suggestions. Thanks for posting.
Very good info SweetiePie. It reminds me that I need to review my profile. I am almost sure that I have not updated it for more than a year!
SweetiePie, very informative hub. Thanks for explaining how to hyperlink!
Thanks, SweetiePie, your hub made me think. I've probably got the most useless profile in the whole HubPage set up. Click on my name, you'll see!
This serves as a reminder to update our profile pages on any site too and this is something I often do and it seems a constant thing I am always conscious about showing the right links to relevant or useful stuff.
It might prove interesting to also add some of my best hub page links at the top even though they may be listed further down the page...as ever cheers for the insight and reminder Sweets!
Yes, I do change the picture seasonally, what I have not really changed is the text. I've been meaning to do it for a long time, but I never get round to it :(
sweetiepie, I'm still learning, but I think this hub gave me a good boost on the technical hyperlinking aspect. my avatar is always changing, but I think the current one works.
Thank you! I had never realy bothered with my profile much, and not hyperlinking at all, but followed your guide easily.
How very kind! It's all down to you (-:
That Afghan Sikh & Hindu hub I promised on your Kite review hub - I'm working on it!
Thanks for the helpful tips, SweetiePie!!!! Excellent hub!!
Thank you, SweetiePie!!! I thought about dying it, but haven't gotten around to it. If I don't, it will be blonde by mid-summer.
Hey SweetiePie,
Thanks for the nice tips. These are surely gonna help the upcoming Hubbers. :)
Keep going. Best of luck.
Great hub and the tips are definitely helpful to someone like me who is new to hubpages - thanks!
Great hub, SP! Lots of helpful info for newbies and long timers, alike.
Good information Sweetie Pie. I love the ease of hyper linking here at HubPages, and you are right, it is good to do this to your favorite topics or sites.
Great screen shots showing hubbers how to do this!
I've seen the odd person who has been here for a bit and just never linked. Perhaps it's just by choice.
I agree with you and Dorsi about it is so easy here compared to every other site that I've worked on. You pretty much have to be a CSS pro to use some of them and have your articles look the way you want them to.
Hyperlink tool is not showing in my profile.. do you know why? unable to link the sites..
ya u r right. everybody going to c our profile so this is how we can get the most out of our hubpages profile....
after selecting the words.. link is visible and now I have linked my sites..
as a new hubber I appreciate all the pointers. thanks.
I am also a new hubber. I am really trying to learn my around here. Thanks to great people like you I am able to get through this learning curve much faster.
Thank you so much for this info. I will try to follow your directions. - It's hard for us "old dogs" to learn new tricks - LOL
I have been wanting to know how to do this but didn't have the time to figure it out just yet. This is very useful to me. And I am sure many others will appriciate it as well.
Thank you, SweetiePie!
Greetings SweetiePie! Great AND useful article! Thnx a Zillion for pointing out the obvious benefits of regular 'tweeking' some otherwise static info!
PR: wait... I: wait... L: wait... LD: wait... I: wait...wait... Rank: wait... Traffic: wait... Price: wait... I: wait... L: wait... C: wait...
Hi Sweetie Pie - great hub and excellent points. Did you know that you can boost your page rank (PR) by adding relevant text and even some hyperlinks to your profile page? Then, when you link back to other blogs or websites, you can boost the PR there, as well. Great idea for those of us that are looking to boost traffic, etc. on other sites. Best, Stephanie
Wow Sweetie Pie, Wht a concept- hyperlinks in the copy too. I'll alert my webmaster today on this. WE plan to update myprofile page soon.
Judy at bookcoaching.com
very good advice om my way to change my hub now
Hi SweetiePie, this is a great and informative hub. And you explained it so well I am sure it will be easy to follow for those who are still learning about it. :-)
Wonderful job SweetiePie, you have punched out a great write again!
This is very helpful. Now I'd have to do a makeover of my Profile! Or create a new account! LOL thanks for sharing ;D
Hi Sweetie,
thanks for the tips. I didn't know all that. I thought the profile doesn't matter that much. And I think I have given up on earning much on adsense. L.O.L
Btw, I love your profile picture. ;)
Great advice. I'm just beginning to see how all this can work. I appreciate this.
wow this is really great information.....you are simply great....you have done amazing work out on hubpages...keep it up and keep sharing....thanx a lot.
Very good information sounds like you really did your homework.
Thanks for the information, I must admit I'm guilty of putting up a few overly promotional and boring hubs myself, but information like this is really helpful in expanding the horizons of what hubpages and similar sites have to offer.
Thanks again and cheers,
Oh wow... I didn't know all this. I guess I should work on my style... thanks
thanks for sharing this, its a great help =)
Hi Sweetie Pie! I do need to get back to HP! I am busy with blogging, but I love this community and especially people like you. Thank you for a great hub again! Steph
Thanks for the article. I'm a newby at this & found the information very helpful
Rich Johnson
Very good Hub w/ easy to follow instructions SweetiePie! Perfect for the beginner Hubber as well as seasoned Hubbers picking up helpful advice and tips!
Excellent hub with excellent info on how to utilize your profile, well done!
I have been wondering about this for ages...how to utilize the Profile page to better effect. Thanks for laying it all out for us! I will employ your suggestions asap! :)
wow, sweetie, i was just wondering abut all this when i bumped into this informative hub - thanx so much
Hey there, I have hub writing 101 type question.. What makes a hub "overly promotional"? Is that a positive or a negative? Also when you are adding hyperlinks in your profile are you linking them to all your various hubs/websites? Right now I have a blog a hub and a website can I follow your directions above to add hyperlinks to each of them? I have a lot of questions! Thanks for you hub..helpful in ways I didn't realize!
I have just written myself a note to study this Hub in detail! This looks like good advice, and easy to follow instructions. Thank you so much.
Cheers for this it is a really useful hub which I feel I should look at again when I have written some more hubs.
Great one, SP! I'm heading up to my profile to implement what I just learned from you. Thanks so much!
This information was much needed. I am a first time blogger and pretty much going into it blindly. So any information at this point is helpful. Thanks for the great tips.
Great hub. I'm new to all this so thanks for the tips!
Yawn, oops sorry after all that scrolling down I almost forgot why I came, oh yes to thank you for the wonderful and helpful HUB.
I learned a lot and I will refer to it for a while I am sure.
Thank you *hugs*
Oooh!! That's sweet! I was wondering why my hubpages weren't getting as many clicks as I thought it would, it's kind of lonely when you write stuff but don't get much people to read what you had to share.. pretty sad.. hahaha thanks for the tips :)
I sure enjoyed this article SweetiePie, thanks a bunch :)
Could you tell me real quickly if my intro/profile is overly promotional? I think it may be a bit pushy :/
I appreciate advice from experts
congratulation sweetiepie you have got 100 for this hub....you deserve it.because the hub itself is amazing and with excellent information....keep it up.....
I like your information here, Sweetie Pie. I like how you explained some basics like linking that will help all the newbies out there. I will put your advice to use!
GOod tips, thanks! GOing to revise mine, too :)
Thanks. I went and added my daily blog and my twitter urls to mine.
Agree, this rocks. THanks for the help!
Thanks! Really helpful.
Seems like if i've also got some work to do. hehe My newbieness shows...
I'll get on with my profile real soon. Until then, don't laugh too hard! .. Bah, it is so boring that I don't even think that it's a laughing matter but ;) As we often say in french : "It is better to prevent than to heal!" (or cure)
French version : "Mieux vaut guérir que prévenir"
Thanks a lot!
A very useful info for a newbie like me:) cheers:)
great hub sweetie pie - I sometimes look at my profile and wonder how I can make it better and you have answered my questions - so thank you - congratulations on reaching 100 for this hub!....cheers
What a terrific and well-written hub! You bring it down to my level. I love how you didn't just tell us what to do--you showed us!!
Thanks, SweetiePie!!
This is an excellent advice and come to think of it I guess it is high time I updated my profile. You really amaze me with so many prolific wonderful hubs. Thanks for all this information which would be very useful for many of us.
A very good hub my friend....I am going to update my profile now.
Thanks for the tip.
I'll check to see if I put links or not.
i do not remember.
Great advice Sweetiepie. I enjoyed the hub.
Thanks for this informative and useful Hub! I would be interested in anything else you might have on this topic. I'll be watching for ya!
Thanks for the info. As a newbie hubber, I need all the advice I can get.
Thanks for the tips SweetiePie...
Good article :) I didn't bother much with the profile page until hubpages redesigned it to include recent/hot/best selections by category. It's now very well worth having a good pice of text (with hyperlinks, as you suggest) to make sure people read down as far as the gallery section. Also a good profile page can attract quite a high Google page rank which is another bonus.
Good stuff SweetiePie! Maybe I should consider having more than a few lines in my profile...
Thanks for a great Hub SweetiePie. I'm new to Hub Pages and I'm finding it fasinating. I'll be sure to get a better profile page put together as soon as I can. Thanks for the advice.
Thank you for this info. It's an eye opener for me. 5***** My profile sure needs a lot of attention now. Published my 1st page a couple of days ago. So i am taking your good advise.
Well done.
Very good information - I am a big squidoo-er and now I am starting to take more time to update my hubs and make more so I am learning and this was a help.
I am just learning about self promotion and this really helped. I just got around to putting in my picture.
Thank you very much for that article Sweetiepie, there was a couple of things that i didn't consider, and has brought them to my attension.
This is a cool tip, ill try it out and see what the results are
I don't have that many hubs yet, but thanks for the ideas! Looks like I have some editing to do.
Nice Tips Sweetie Pie That would be of great help.. from now on I'll continue updating each of my hubs including my profile..
Extremely useful information. This means you must update your hubpages and your profile too.
Waoh! What an extemely informative write up.I relly enjoy this.Now I know I should update my hubpages and profiles.
Thanks for this tip. Yours was the first hub page I saw after joining yesterday, and this showed me how to link to my website, which I didn't know how to do. I day here, and I already learned something important.
This is very good information for people who ae new using the site. Thanks
for the informaiton.
Paul Gardner
nice one
SweetiePie, what an awesome Hub. I have to admit that I haven't paid much attention to profiles, mine or anyone else's, since I've been here. So, going through your Hub and all its comments has been a real eye opener. I've now looked at nearly every profile of those who have commented here, and I'm about to view some more. A profile can tell a good story, just like a Hub can, and yet I was never interested in using it quite that way, until now. So, all thumbs up!
Hi SweetiePie -- I caught the title in Hubtivity and was reminded I wanted to tell you I decided to redo my profile! I did that after some though caused by this very hub :-)
The hubscore shows the value of the hub dear. I wish it reaches 100 soon.
Great job. Thumbs up!
thanks, sweetie pie, will try this soon
Thanks sweetiepie. Your hubs are always really helpful, and I like how you speak from experience! Once I write more hubs I'll start adding in some hyperlinks. Like others have said, I never really considered the importance of updating your profile. This article really helped :)
very informative.. the pictures helped explain the idea in a clear manner
I never really considered using my profile page in so many ways. Thanks for all the creative input!
Hi sweetie pie, How does one sweetie manage to get all the fans, traffic, cha ching, brains, gifts, talents, zillions of comments and have it all? Pure genius... That has got to be it. Your brain is always working and creating. God is using you to touch and help many. I know I have been Blessed with your wisdom. Maybe it is the air in sunny Ca. How do you visit all your fans? Just curious. I bet you manage somehow. Do you sleep? Kidding. (-:
Thank You.
In Love and continued Blessings, sweetie pie.
These are some great tips! I am glad I stumbled across you while looking for better ways to improve my hubs. Thanks!!
Thank you for these excellent tips on getting the most out of your hp profile. Very helpful and will start using them right away!
Thank you very much. Now I have read this hub, I have to edit and make my profile a bit interesting. Thanks again.
Interesting hub! I have voted this up and Useful! So now let's go and change my profile a bit. Smart hub!

I think the only new seat available like you want for the 1000 is the Corbin gunfighter.

On Ebay there are seats made in Hong Kong that look like what you're looking for. They call them Cafe Racer seats but I think they look like corbin knockoffs

We are in touch with many charity trustees and we find that some questions frequently crop up. Below, we have provided the answers to some of the things that we are often asked, but if what you are looking for isn't on this page, our team will be pleased to help.
This section highlights some of the questions we often get asked by charities; they cover investing for the first time, experienced investors and the review process.
Key: Q = Question, A = Answer, T = Topical Commentary
Q: We have no investments at the moment, but feel we cannot leave all our funds in the bank anymore. What do we need to consider?
A: There are a number of elements to consider. The Charity Commission has produced guidance reflecting both legal points and best practice on things to consider, as well as things that must be in a written policy if you appoint a fund management firm to look after your investments.
T: Many charities have invested for the first time in recent years, as the combination of low interest rates and the impact of inflation has meant they have little income to spend on their charitable purposes each year. That inflation will also make their money worth much less in the years to come. Discussion points often include how to diversify, how to manage a range of risks, what their investment policy should contain and what level of income they might expect.
Q: How often should we meet our investment managers?
A: The simple answer is 'as often as you feel you need to', bearing in mind the availability of your managers. We recognise that charities have many areas of work to manage on a day-to-day basis. However, they also have a governance structure in place and they have committees, both of which embody how they manage their organisation effectively. That leaves each specialist (internally or externally) to fulfill the charity's brief, meeting with the charity to monitor and to plan as often as both parties feel they need to. Many charities wish to meet those managing their invested assets on a quarterly basis, and like to know that they can also ask them questions when they are setting budgets, or if their financial circumstances change.
Q: How can we avoid risk when investing?
A: You can't avoid risk; it is important to understand the types of risk and how to manage them.
T: The discussion on investment risks and how to manage them has become more complex as the range of investment options, the corporate characteristics affecting shares, and the proliferation of pooled funds have all developed. It is important to talk to your investment managers about a range of risks, and to ensure that your 'appetite for risk' is reflected in both your policy and your investment arrangements.
Q: What types of advice should we receive?
A: Many charities have considerable experience of investment matters and some have a specialist investment committee. While it is for each charity to decide how the Charity Commission guidance should be reflected in its own arrangements, many seek the independent advice of their investment managers to complement the guidance. The important thing is to be clear about what type of advice you seek, and then clarify with any investment firm or adviser/consultant what advice you will receive and what formal arrangements are in place.
T: There are various types of business model in the investment industry, some of which underwent change in 2013. Aside from advice, the nature of the contractual agreement a charity has with an investment firm can also take different forms. Firms offering investment services may offer a fund (or funds), with or without a regulated agreement under which they may give advice; some can advise on their own products but not always offer wider advice; others offer an investment service, under a contract, where the investment management and professional advice are combined. The key is always to obtain as much information as possible on the offering in order to make a decision that trustees feel is right for their charity.

The value of investments and any income from them can fall and you may get back less than you invested.

CROWLEY: Joining me now, Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
She is chair of the Democratic National Committee.
I want to take you just a little bit off topic at the beginning, because I want to ask you about this interim deal with Iran that the U.S. and other nations have been pushing. So far, it hasn't come together.
But you have heard some of the criticism, particularly from Israel, but there are other problems with the Saudis, etc. Looking at this.
CROWLEY: How comfortable are with you what you've heard about what the U.S. and others are seeking?
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: Well, I think any time that you are actually at the diplomatic table negotiating on a question that, just a year or so ago, would have been unfathomable -- the idea that we could actually get Iran to back off its pursuit of nuclear weapons, number one, it demonstrates that the sanctions that we've imposed thus far have been extremely painful and effective and that President Obama's emphasis on trying to do all that we can to make sure that Iran cannot attain those nuclear weapons is working and we're going in the right direction.
But, of course, any deal has to be one that makes sense and has to be one that makes sense and has to be one that makes sense for the United States' security interests and also the interests of our allies in the region.
CROWLEY: OK. All right.
Let me turn you back to the topic du jour, and that is the elections that we had last week.
I want to put up an exit poll from the Virginia elections where the Democrat, Terry McAuliffe won.
The question was, what's your opinion of ObamaCare?
Forty-six percent of Virginia voters supported it, 53 percent opposed it.
I want to add onto that a meeting at the White House Wednesday with a collection of 15 Senate Democrats, most of whom are up for re- election, who rang the alarm bell at the White House and said do something, this is hurting us. Is there a fix that the president could put in place now that would ease the concerns of both those voters in Virginia and those senators having to run for re-election?
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: Well, Candy, let's take a look at what the election outcome in Virginia means. Terry McAuliffe won Virginia. And he won it with the same percentage, just about, that President Obama won Virginia just a year ago.
And what Election Day this past Tuesday in Virginia, a very competitive state, showed you is that when the voters are presented with a candidate who focuses on creating jobs and investing in education and working together, versus a candidate who doubled down on the politics of shutdown, who embraced Tea Party extremism, who was a leader in the war on women, particularly on women's health, they overwhelmingly chose Terry McAuliffe, the Democratic candidate, and elected him.
CROWLEY: They did.
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: And that is what we're going to be...
CROWLEY: But are you...
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: -- looking at...
CROWLEY: Right.
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: -- just one sec.
They're going to be doing -- they're going to be having the same choices all across the country, with Tea Party governors that were elected in 2010 having to run on similar records against candidates who are going to give them a similar choice.
CROWLEY: But did...
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: When it comes to ObamaCare specifically, you know, ObamaCare did not have anything to do with Tuesday's outcome. You have (INAUDIBLE)...
CROWLEY: You don't think it made the election closer?
You don't -- I mean because (INAUDIBLE).
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: No, I really...
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: I really don't.
CROWLEY: And so more to the point...
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: Because if you look at the results a year ago and the results now, they were about the same.
CROWLEY: Right.
If you look at 2014, if you look at this through the prism of 2014, you don't think that ObamaCare will weigh heavily on Democratic elections?
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: I think ObamaCare -- because Americans have been feeling the benefits since 2010, where young adults can stay on their parents' insurance until they're 26, where in -- on January 1st, if you have a pre-existing condition, like I do, as you know, as a breast cancer survivor, the peace of mind that the -- that those Americans are going to have knowing that they can never be dropped or denied coverage for that pre-existing condition, the preventative care that's available without a co-pay or a deductible, those are benefits that Americans have already been feeling and will increasingly feel...
CROWLEY: Tell me...
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: -- as ObamaCare is fully implemented.
I think, actually, Candy, that Democratic candidates will be able to run on ObamaCare as an advantage leading into the 2014 election.
CROWLEY: How many Floridians have lost their health care insurance in the private market?
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: The situation that Floridians, or any person who's gotten a transition letter from their insurance company, are in is that they will have an opportunity to shop on the exchange and compare plans...
CROWLEY: But they -- right. But...
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: And...
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: -- and when they have -- you could -- the CEO of Florida Blue was on a Sunday show just a week or so ago talking about how they were -- they are offering a replacement plan for the plans that they're transitioning.
And in most cases, the plan that the person is going to benefit from is actually a lower cost and has more benefits.
So, you know, this -- it is a real significant distortion to say that people are being -- that hundreds of thousands of people are being canceled. What's actually happening is that they are very likely going to get a better plan for less money.
CROWLEY: Nonetheless...
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: But there are some...
CROWLEY: -- 100,000 people have -- I mean hundreds of thousands of people have had insurance canceled. Some of them, you know, certainly not all of them, but some of them expressed an interest in keeping it.
Would you support -- should the president support any kind of move -- and there are those in Congress, and some of them are Democrats, who say, yes, people who have insurance they want to keep it in the private market should be allowed to keep it?
That's not just Republicans pushing that.
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: Well, and the president himself said that to the extent that his commitment and our commitment that if you liked your plan you could keep it is not possible for, you know, which is actually about less than 5 percent of the folks in the individual market, then we are going to work toward making sure they can do that.
What we're not going to do is we're not going to allow the Republicans, embracing the idea that we should stop people from being able to get access to quality affordable health care, we're not going to let new plans be sold, like the Upton bill would do, to allow insurance companies to drop them or deny them coverage for pre- existing conditions, to charge women double just because we're women. And, you know, to suggest that we have to do that and create two separate tracks that are going to allow people to be discriminated against again and not have good quality health care, that's unacceptable.
CROWLEY: Right.
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: And it's unacceptable to Americans. We're not going backwards.
CROWLEY: And just a yes or no, because I've got to run.
You believe that Democrats will win running on ObamaCare in 2014?
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: I think because Americans reject the Tea Party extremism, they want us to focus on creating jobs and working together, and because they will feel...
CROWLEY: That's not exactly a yes.
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: -- the benefits of ObamaCare, yes.
CROWLEY: OK. All right.
Thank you so much.
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: There you go.
CROWLEY: I really appreciate your time.
Thank you, Chairwoman.
WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: Thanks, Candy.

While many debate the effectiveness of locking people up for extended periods of time as a way to change behavior, there is something to be said about what occurs when an individual is forced into a confined space and given the chance to reflect upon one's actions. Now that's not to say that the person will do that as a person must actually choose to do so, I'm just saying that similar to a meditation practice where a person chooses to enter into the confines of one's mind in which to recognize its expansiveness, so to can the confines of a prison cell give one the safety needed to venture within.
Case in point, this recent Memphis Flyer post on how meditation is being used at a women's correctional facility in Memphis to help teach inmates how to deal with stress.
According to Louis Goggans, PremaHealing, an organization specializing in meditation, healing, and emotional processing, uses breathing exercises to give those incarcerated an opportunity to experience their emotions without reacting to them. The program is also geared toward helping them with a successful transition once they are released.
A select group of inmates housed there participate in monthly meditation classes offered by Memphis-based PremaHealing, an organization specializing in meditation, healing, and emotional processing.
Carol Crane, co-founder of PremaHealing, said the classes teach offenders how to avoid stress.
"We go in and teach them breathing exercises and ways to calm the mind. If they do have emotions arise as a response, they can use these techniques to process through those emotions, instead of having to react to them," Crane said.
PremaHealing began providing the classes six months ago after partnering with the support group Families of Incarcerated Individuals.
The classes are part of the Families of Incarcerated Individuals' "Doorways Reentry" program, which helps female offenders make a successful transition after their release. There are around 15 women in the class each month.
Read more about how this meditation program is benefiting those incarcerated at the Mark H. Luttrell Correctional Center here.

Hyperosmolar nonketotic coma occurs in people with
diabetes. It is a life-threatening event. Seek medical attention right away if you think you have any symptoms of an impending hyperosmolar nonketotic coma.
Hyperosmolar nonketotic coma is a
of very high blood glucose levels. Blood glucose often rises to these levels because of an illness or infection.
The body will try to get rid of the extra blood glucose through the urine. The frequency and volume of urination will increase. Unfortunately, this process also washes out other substances in your blood. Some of these substances are important to your brain. Low levels of these substances can lead to
coma, and eventually death.
The chance of hyperosmolar nonketotic coma is higher in older adults.
Other factors that may increase your chance of hyperosmolar nonketotic coma include having diabetes and:
Symptoms that may occur before the hyperosmolar nonketotic coma may include:
If you arrive at the hospital in a hyperosmolar nonketotic coma, your vital signs will be monitored. The levels of glucose and other substances in your blood will be tested with:
electrocardiogram (EKG)
may also be done to check your heart's electrical activity.
You will likely need treatment in the emergency room and/or the intensive care unit at the
Treatment will focus on restoring the correct balance of substances in your blood, including glucose. Treatment may include:
You may need additional treatment, such as antibiotics, if an infection led to the coma.

text: I just spent a good portion of a day going through add-ons that are being run on a low power server to see if I could speed things up a bit. What I found was almost scary. I found a good portion of the add-ons using code something like this in their listeners... Code: public static function loadClassModel($class, array &$extend) { if ($class == 'XenForo_Model_Conversation') { $extend[] = 'XXXX_Model_Conversation'; } else if ($class == 'XenForo_Model_Like') { $extend[] = 'XXXX_Model_Like'; } else if ($class == 'XenForo_Model_AddOn') { $extend[] = 'XXXX_Model_AddOn'; } } The way that's coded and entered into the listeners, that code runs on every single page load. That really isn't bad if the only add-on running on the server is that one. But, when you multiply that by 30 to 40 add-ons it really starts accumulating. If there were separate listeners for each one with the event hint filled in, they would only run when needed. I was able to trim almost a full point off the server load by putting event hints in a good portion of the add-ons. But I wasn't able to hit them all. Now I'm just as guilty as the next guy and sometimes I fail to use the event hint. But, I think we should all be thinking of them when we code.

#AM_Equality Tip Sheet: May 5, 2016
JUSTICE DEPT SAYS NC VIOLATING CIVIL RIGHTS ACT; COULD COST MILLION$: The U.S. Department of Justice is laying down the law, ruling yesterday that North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory's discriminatory HB2 law, violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972. In a letter to McCrory, DOJ gives the governor until COB Monday to confirm "that the State will not comply with or implement HB2." The state risks a lawsuit by the DOJ and loss of $4.5 billion in federal public education funding. McCrory has signalled he may defy the Civil Rights Act. UNC President Margaret Spellings, who also received DOJ's letter, must now decide whether to break with the flailing governor and chaos he has created -- or comply with the Civil Rights Act and protect her students. Still think this is funny, governor? More from The News & Observer.
IF YOU'RE KEEPING TRACK: It's been 43 days since McCrory, Berger, and Moore got together, rammed HB2 through the state legislature and signed the bill in all of 9 hours without allowing debate. And it's been 3 weeks today since the same terrible trifecta has failed to respond to an open records request on the bill. HRC and Equality North Carolina are again calling on state leadership to stop hiding the ball and come clean to the public about the motivation behind HB2 and its hasty passage. More from HRC's blog.
- George Clooney called on NC's governor and legislative leaders to fully repeal the state's discriminatory HB2. In an email message yesterday, Clooney wrote, "...human rights, civil rights and equality must be for all and not just most."
- Sporting a "Y'all means all" shirt before her Raleigh concert Tuesday night, Beyoncé shared a message of support, raising awareness of HB2 and crediting advocates "committed to being good and carrying on the message of equality."
OXFORD, ALA., CITY COUNCIL … SOMETIMES IF YOU'RE FIRST, YOU'RE LAST: Oxford, Ala., which recently became the first municipality in the nation to pass a discriminatory law attacking the transgender community, quickly repealed the vile measure Wednesday at a special City Council meeting. Said HRC Alabama State Director Eva Walton Kendrick -- one of many opponents filling the room during the 3-2 vote: "Throughout the country elected officials from both sides of the aisle, along with hundreds of business leaders and advocates throughout the country have resoundingly rejected these kinds of proposals, which only seek to demean and marginalize the transgender community." HRC applauds the council's decision to repeal the measure. More in the Associated Press, Reuters and Washington Post stories.
THIS SHOULD "HUUUUGELY" TERRIFY YOU: With Donald Trump the presumptive Republican nominee, voters now confront the very terrifying possibility that the celebrity real estate deal-maker could be nominating the next Supreme Court Justice. Trump has vowed to appoint an anti-equality justice and his a rich history of horrible anti-LGBT stances. Given it's been nearly two months since President Obama nominated Judge Merrick Garland to the U.S. Supreme Court, HRC hosted a call yesterday for LGBT and allied organizations to provide an update on the status of Garland's nomination, what's at stake for the LGBT community and ways to advance the nomination -- including calling on Senate Republican leadership to #DoYourJob. More from HRC's blog.
NEXT-GENERATION OF HIV LEADERS: Today, the HRC Foundation and Elton John AIDS Foundation announced its selection of 10 outstanding, young community-based leaders for a nine-month fellowship providing high-level training to elevate their work ending HIV in hard-hit U.S. communities.The HRC HIV 360° initiative is made possible with support from the Elton John AIDS Foundation. Read more about the program, and check out bios and a video of the fellows here and a piece by HRC's Marvell Terry in The Advocate.

KAPOW! Marvel's top directors speak out about needing more LGBT superheroes. More from The Huffington Post.
STALL TACTICS. Pittsburgh City Paper asks why the Pennsylvania state legislature hasn't passed the LGBT Fairness Act yet.
ON THIS DAY IN LGBT HISTORY ... On the heels of the Stonewall announcement, two sites in DC make it to the National Register of Historic Places.

- Most Pokémon use their hands to paint accept for the following: Bidoof uses his teeth to paint, Eevee, Skitty, Phanpy, Turtwig, Torchic, Mudkip, Chikorita, and Bulbasaur paint with their tails, Rotom uses his plasma beams the emerge from itself to paint, and bird Pokémon use their wings/feet to paint.
- One of the accessories that the player can buy is a red Fiat with the Pokémon logo painted on as well as MQM Inc. (the player can paint over that). This is an obvious reference to McQueen Mario.

Have you ever felt like something was missing from a photo, but you couldn't quite put your finger on it? Maybe you lucked out with perfect light and nailed the exposure, but you're just not in love with the image. If you can't seem to pinpoint what's bugging you, there's a good chance that posing is the culprit. Posing is like electrical work or men's haircuts -- you don't notice it unless it's done wrong, and a forced pose can make an otherwise-fabulous photo look a bit amateurish.
Here are 5 simple ways to take your posing to the next level and produce stunning, striking images every time:
Don't think about posing.
Yeah, we realize that's a weird way to kick off a post about posing. But what we mean is, you should focus less on posing and more on direction. Guide them to a primo location, give them a few pointers so they don't feel awkward, but let their interactions unfold as organically as possible. Simply telling your subjects, "Okay, sit hip-to-hip and snuggle up!" can be infinitely more effective than trying to mold their hands and legs and elbows and heads into the perfect position. Go for connection, not Claymation.
Instill confidence.
This is a two-parter: You want to boost your clients' self-confidence, and you want them to feel confident in your ability to make them look good. Because the brutal truth is, no one is going to care about your dreamy hair lighting or your mad OCF skills or the killer location if they don't like the way they look in the photo. Basically, you want to keep this cycle of confidence going:
Keep it moving.
Technical know-how is obviously vital, but when it comes to creating images that make an impact, emotion will trump perfect exposure every time. If you want an image to move people, it has to…well, move. Your subjects shouldn't look like they're frozen in place. There should be some variation from each frame to the next. Whether it's a family walking along the beach or a slight breeze making a bride's veil billow, movement will add life to your images. This tip also plays well with wiggly kids -- challenge them to a race, ask them to twirl, or have a parent play "airplane." It's fun, it feels natural, and it brings the frustration level way down for everyone involved.
Watch the hands.
Ask any body language expert -- we hold our tension in our hands. So if someone feels uncomfortable in front of the camera, they're likely to express it with their hands. But they probably won't even realize they're doing it, and from behind the lens, you might see them pulling off a perfectly romantic pose. Only later, when you're pixel-peeping in Lightroom, do you notice the groom's stiff karate-chop hand or the bride's nervously-clenched fist. So before you click the shutter, take a second to double-check hand placement. And always give subjects something to do with their hands -- put them on their hips, in their pockets, around their partner's waist. Body language works in reverse as well -- if you help them relax their hands, they'll usually start to feel a little less tense.
Offer variety.
When you put your portfolio together, you don't want 20 shots of 20 couples doing the exact same pose. One easy way to avoid repetition: Every time you set up a pose, try to shoot it three different ways. After you get the original image you were envisioning, try a wide shot, or shoot from above, or switch up your angle, or use a super-shallow depth of field. Not only will your clients have more images to choose from, but they'll have more time to relax in the pose and start interacting naturally. And natural interaction is far more important (and effective!) than any posing trick could ever be.

Do you feel overworked and underpaid?
Does it pain you to deliver digital images...but no album or wall portraits?
Do you believe in tangible products, but don't think your market can support higher priced items?
If you answered "yes" to any of the above, you're not alone and there IS a solution: In-Person Sales. There's no limit to how much more money you can make by providing IPS instead of online sales or shoot & burn. Or how many hours you'll save because you'll be able to shoot fewer sessions to generate the same revenue. Or how many hours of sleep you'll get because you won't be worrying about money.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 217944
/etc/pam.d/system-auth-ac has wrong logic for kerberos
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:11:50 EST
Description of problem:
I've tried to set up workstation with kerberos single sign on
configured. Unfortunately /etc/pam.d/system-auth-ac created by
system-config-authentication has logic which prevents pam_krb5
from authenticating itself to a server. Please have a look:
auth required pam_env.so
auth sufficient pam_unix.so nullok try_first_pass
auth requisite pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 500 quiet
auth sufficient pam_krb5.so use_first_pass
auth required pam_deny.so
This means that after pam_unix authenticates user we leave pam
stack and authentication service provided by pam_krb5.so is never
called. As a result session service later on will not be able
to setup credentials for a user.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Actual results:
klist shows no credentials after logging in.
Expected results:
klist shows credentials after logging in.
Additional info:
This fault is related to bug #193335 which unfortunately was
closed as NOTABUG (which I strongly believe it is). It may also
relate to bug #179009.
No, what you are trying to achieve is simply not possible. Or it is possible but
it has its own set of problems. Authconfig as a tool can choose only one of many
possible pam configurations and it is up to you to modify it if it doesn't suit
your needs.
What I mean is that the config generated by authconfig is perfectly OK when you
either don't have users authenticated by kerberos in the /etc/passwd at all but
they are in LDAP or NIS. Or they have a passwd entry but without a password set
there (or in /etc/shadow). Or you can have a different password in /etc/shadow
and in the kerberos and use the kerberos password normally and the /etc/shadow
one only when the kerberos server is unavailable.
Switching the order of the authentication modules would be possible but it would
have other problems like very long timeouts on authentication when disconnected
from network.

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
Very nice staff. My room was really charming and comfortable. Huge swimming pool. Very good breakfast. I will come back with my family.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. I thought the breakfast was very good. No cost for children under 6, so with 2 small children it was a great deal. The cleaning/breakfast staff was very friendly, always smiling and helpful. Even in August though, the pool was a little chilly. The playground was rundown and didn't seem safe for little ones. Should not be advertised unless they clean it up.
The position in perfect to visit Provence and Istres is a beautiful well-kept town near the see. The staff is gentle, caring and helpful. The hotel is excellent for this price, it is not a 4 or 5 stars so don´t expect luxury. But the pool and the garden area is lovely, and so are the rooms. Plus, we travelled with a dog and a cat and they are accepted anyhow! I would definitely reccomend this hotel. Mostly very little details, but the bed was kind of small and unconfortable, the room wasn´t perfectly clean when we arrived, the breakfast is good but expensive...
The staff were really helpful, and very warm. The hotel was recently renovated and all the rooms were different. Our room was really nice. The hotel is situated in a beautiful pinewood park and has a very nice swimming pool. Great price for French hotels. The breakfast like in majority of French hotels was not included in price.
The location is very good. Furthermore, the staff was very friendly
Staff, Cleaniness Decor in some parts of the hotel
Very familiar atmosphere, nice gardenview, near a small forest (for jogging). Breakfast buffet with yoghurt and cereals. Very nice room and many details in the hotel to discover and with pleasure loook at. Very nice interior decorating. Hard to find (escorted by policemen in the middle of the night...).Lack of tomatoes, vegeable, read with cereals on the breakfast buffet. It would be even better if there was a posssibility to do some cooking.... not many open resaurants or cafes near the hotel. You must be a guset with a car.
very nice staff, feeling to be at home, nice pool area, ideally for couples 30+ with no children, ideal place to relax, small but nice rooms, excellent ac,free wifi, good rates via booking.com, good harbour fish restaurants just 5 minutes away (with car) maybe the location is not good for people without car, no other cons
The Manager, Gerald, was fantastic - so helpful and informative and all the staff were pleasant. Most of the parking was shaded by open garages or trees. The room for 4 consisted of 2 bedrooms & a jacuzzi bath in bathroom - fantastic.
Staff were very helpful. They arranged our taxi for our departure.
Everything, very nice - great. Will book again for the next time. Unfortunately very difficult to find - no signs in the town indicating the hotel, even with GPS was difficult - but worth it.
Best price, large-clean rooms, air conditioned, nice pool, good location for sighseeing in lower Provence, highly recommended No dislikes
convenient location cost of breakfast
Pleasant receptionist, secure car park and easy access to hotel The rooms were advertised on the website as having a mini bar, but there isn't one and I had to walk from reception to my room (this involves going outside the hotel, around it and up the satirs, with my drinks! I also prefer a quilt on the bed and hate blanket and sheet. This is not a complaint, just a fact.
Staff were very friendly,our disabled room was well equipped (not easy to find in France) with parking directly outside.The location was in a quiet suburb and the hotel pool was excellent.At the Booking.com price this hotel was excellent value.
very friendly reception staff.
the breakfast was way to expensive. there was only one small piece of paper,in french that had breakfast info.
Good service, friendly staff. A good choice of food for breakfast. The hotel has no food other than breakfast. As the hotel is in a residential area there is nowhere to eat in the evening without a 30 minute walk into the centre of Istres. A car is desirable!
I like that the garden is closed during the night and very nice silence during the night non
One day we found the door of our room not closed by key; fortunately everything was untouched....
very clean and pleasant staff yet quite basic but value for money
I liked people's attitude and manners, the cleanliness of the room, the value for the money, the view was great, the possibility to travel places and come back @ evening,. I would suggest to have a small fridge in the room!
Awful ecology because of the plenty chemical plants around the town. There are many terrible odours when wind blows hotel direction.
Confortable, cleaning, quiet place, reception Wi-fi doesn't work properly
Clean,secure parking,nice view of he sea,and nice swimming pool Nothing in the area - we went to martigues,only 10 mins in car,much nicer
To hot, no airco and a bar without beer ?? Breakfast very minimal
Staff friendly and made tea for us to take to our room. We also used the laundry and tumble dryer facility for the linen from our yacht.Shower was big and excellent. Furnishings basic, but only 44 Euro per night for a double room. All fine for us.
we arrived as planned but could not stay there but the receptionists were kind The standard of all the facilties was very low indeed despite a good internet rating
There was parking place inside hotel area, good situation if you are travelling with car. It was difficult to find.Hotel sign was too small and the recidence looked like any house.
New, wooden floor. Breakfast in the park/garden. Rooms are very old and grubby (especially the bathroom). AC is not really working but very noisy!
staff was very welcome, available and supportive wrt request
Room and bad room were spacy, would appreciate somewhat more light to be able to work in the room. Good food in the restaurant. Breakfast ok Bar was closing early. No place to work outside the room.
The helpfulness of the staff on reception. Air conditioning was very quite and comfortable The local town was very sterile to walk around in the evening.
I really did not like anything. Service was very bad. Rooms need an update. Rooms were dirty. I really did not like anything. Service was very bad. Rooms need an update. Rooms were dirty. Restaurant was a farce. Nothing was delivered right and it took extremely long (we even had to wait 30 minutes for our first drinks)
closeness to where I have to work quality of food visibly dropped during our stay
Swimming pool, small garden Needed renovation
Location very small rooms
Le service Hotel needs renovation and location dificult to find (for foreigner)
The friendliness and attention of the manager was unusually good
The location, and free WIFI Internet
staff - absolutely amazing!!! He is always friendly a helpful. Very good english, small private tourist information - a tip on a trip, how best to get there, tip for a good restaurant, the best beaches.... We were absolutely happy in this hotel, the room was clean, with a balcony (only in first floor!). The bed was comfortable older equipment
staff is helpfull,full air conditionned,free parking all around the hotel... to be twisted neck to watch the tv...
The owner is very helpful with advices on things to see in the region. Location near the center of the town, air-conditioning, private parking, copious breakfast.. All in all, very good value for money
Excellent location. Easy and safe parking. The english speaking proprietor was very helpful with a charming and personal touch. The breakfast was poor for the price.
Very friendly staff. Big and spacious room with air conditioning. Good location, calm area, near to the city center. Private parking. The shower didn't have a curtain or some protection to stop water from spilling out onto the bathroom.

Or at least I think it was the basketball coach – he's about to drop out of the rankings too. But maybe his buyout is next year.
Meanwhile, Mullens, Altman, Helfrich and the other well-paid Athletic Department employees haven't been giving much to the University's Charitable Fund Drive for state and community charities:

Step by step recipe:
- 3 min.Drain the 250 g chickpeas, and put them in the bowl of a mixer or blender.
- 5 min.Add the 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, 4 tablespoons of tahina, garlic clove, salt and pepper.
- 5 min.Switch on the mixer.
- 1 min.During mixing, pour a trickle of cold water...
- ...until you get a smooth and even purée.
- Finaly I recommend you pass the houmous throught a fine strainer to remove all the small chickpea skins, and make a smoother mix.
- 5 min.Put in small dishes with a dash of olive oil. Serve it with pitta bread (of course!) or toasted baguette slices.
Remarks:Quantities of olive oil, tahina (sesame paste) and lemon juice can be altered to taste.
If houmous is not being served immediately, it must be refrigerated with a fine coating of olive oil on top, in a sealed container otherwise it will darken. You can also add a little vitamin C.

Year-round Solid Suiting Vest
I know most guys don't like vests and those who do probably reserve them for very formal events. I guess I am different because I think the 3 piece suit is a classic look and vests worn without a jacket also look great, making you stand out among the crowd. I have always liked J Crew among the casual mall stores and I find this vest in particular very appealing and at a good price point.
I love all boots. Especially for the yard....Tags: shoes, boots, work, construction, air, J Crew, father's day, Father's Day Gifts, red wingsAdded 9 Years Ago from J.Crew
This dress could be viewed as symbolic of the new direction that J. Crew is taking-- and I like it! This dress is bold, feminine, and rich. J. Crew has even decided to apply its new sartorial chutzpah to bridal apparel. Wow.

Description: For too long, the American constitutional tradition has been defined solely by the U.S. Constitution drafted in 1787. Yet constitutional debates at the state level open a window on how Americans, in different places and at different times, have chosen to govern themselves. From New Hampshire in 1776 to Louisiana in 1992, state constitutional conventions have served not only as instruments of democracy but also as forums for revising federal principles and institutions. In The American State Constitutional Tradition, John Dinan shows that state constitutions are much more than mere echoes of the federal document. The first comprehensive study of all 114 state constitutional conventions for which there are recorded debates, his book shows that state constitutional debates in many ways better reflect the accumulated wisdom of American constitution-makers than do the more traditional studies of the federal constitution. Wielding extraordinary command over a mass of historical detail, Dinan clarifies the alternatives considered by state constitution makers and the reasons for the adoption or rejection of various governing principles and institutions. Among other things, he shows that the states are nearly universal in their rejection of the rigid federal model of the constitutional amendment process, favoring more flexible procedures for constitutional change; they often grant citizens greater direct participation in law-making; they have debated and at times rejected the value of bicameralism; and they have altered the veto powers of both the executive and judicial branches. Dinan also shows that, while the Founders favored a minimalist design and focused exclusively on protecting individuals from government action, state constitution makers have often adopted more detailed constitutions, sometimes specifying positive rights that depend on government action for their enforcement. Moreover, unlike the federal constitution, state constitutions often contain provisions dedicated to the formation of citizen character, ranging from compulsory schooling to the regulation of gambling or liquor. By integrating state constitution making with the federal constitutional tradition, this path-breaking work widens and deepens our understanding of the principles by which we've chosen to govern ourselves.

Leaf Cord Ties: Functional Or Frivolous?
Keeping electronics' power cords organized is really annoying, so we've gotten in the habit of wrapping them up with rubber-bands. The nice thing about rubber-bands is that they don't cost much (especially if you steal them from work), but they aren't very cute, and sometimes the rubber rots, causing them to snap out of nowhere. Lufdesign's Leaf Ties do the same job as rubber-bands, but in a rather elegant, nature-inspired way. But is it silly to spend $7 (plus shipping) for 12 ties? [Lufdesign via Design Scene]

Chances are that if someone in your circle of close friends and family is vegan then you already know that they are. After all, people who abstain from foods that contain animal products tend to make it a habit of letting everybody and anybody know about this particular dietary habitude of theirs. However, in the case that you are not sure if someone on your gift basket list is vegan, it´s better to err on the side of caution and only include vegan goodies. Fortunately, as it turns out, a lot of tasty candies and sweets that are popular with just about everyone -vegans and non-vegans alike- are in fact vegan.
Here are some of the goodies that you can include in a vegan candy gift basket:
1) Dark Chocolate
Not all chocolate is milk chocolate. Truth be told, natural dark chocolate is completely plant based, and there are a lot of high quality chocolate bars that are easy to find, organic, and contain no eggs or dairy products. To understand that chocolate need not contain any milk, it helps to understand how chocolate is made. Here is the process in 8 steps:
1. Cacao trees grow in hot, tropical areas. Pods grow on these trees, and a mature pod is about the size of a large mango, and is a burnt orange color with a leathery outer texture.
2. These pods are split open, and inside there are beans (fatty seeds) embedded in a thick, gooey substance. These beans are placed in wooden bins where they´re covered with banana leaves and left to ferment.
3. Once the beans have fermented they are extracted then sun dried for a week.
4. The dried beans are sent to a factory where they are sifted and roasted.
5. The beans are cracked and split up into bitter tasting cacao nibs.
6. These nibs are ground up into a thick paste with a gritty texture called chocolate liquor.
7. Manufactures add sugar, cocoa butter and vanilla in order to sweeten the grainy and bitter chocolate liquor.
8. Lastly, the sweetened chocolate liquor is run through a series of steel rollers which smooth out the texture, removing the grainy bits and other inconsistencies. Soy lichen is added as a thickening agent. The velvety final product is then poured into molds where it dries.
Step 7 is the stage of the process where milk would be added, but again, this is not necessary. Dark chocolate need not be bitter either; natural vanilla can provide all the sweetness you need. Popular brands of dark, vegan chocolate that is also certifiably organic include Alter Eco, Kallari, Equal Exchange, Theo, and Newman´s.
2) Jujubes
A lot of gummy candies contain gelatin, which is made from boiling the tendons, ligaments, and skin of farm animals. Needless to say, anything which contains gelatin is not suitable for a vegan. However, Jujubes -an American classic- are vegan friendly.
Be sure to check the label though; imitation jujubes may contain gelatin, carmine (made from crushed insects), or sugar that has been refined with bone char. Real, vegan jujubes will typically be harder, and people tend to prefer to suck on them instead of chewing them.
3) Cracker Jack
Another American classic that happens to be vegan is "Cracker Jack" brand caramel coated popcorn and peanuts. If the person you are sending your gift basket to has a kid, "Cracker Jack" is a great choice because each bag comes with a toy.
4) No Oreos!
You may have heard that Oreo cookies are vegan friendly. However, this appears to be nothing more than a widely circulated myth. On its own website, Oreo claims that their product, although suitable for vegetarians, is not suitable for vegans as their production involves cross contact with milk.
