Tags: canola oil, heart healthy oils, healthy oils
The heart healthy claim -- also found on oils such as phytosterols, omega-3s and olive oil -- is popular among nutraceutical companies because consumers are spending more on healthier foods. The U.S. Canola Oil Association petitioned to be able to make the claim in January in order to promote the benefits of canola oil.
"The claim may ... encourage food manufacturers and food service providers to substitute canola oil for other oils with less favorable nutritional profiles," said USCA president John Haas, who added that he expects the availability of the claim to promote consumer health by informing them of a simple, affordable and convenient strategy to reduce heart disease risk.
Studies suggest canola oil is high in healthy unsaturated fats, free of cholesterol and trans fats, and has the lowest saturated fat content of any common edible oil. Because canola oil is low in LDL (bad) cholesterol, the labels will be allowed to say:
"Limited and not conclusive scientific evidence suggests that eating about 1 1/2 tablespoons (19 grams) of canola oil daily may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease due to the unsaturated fat content in canola oil. To achieve this possible benefit, canola oil is to replace a similar amount of saturated fat and not increase the total number of calories you eat in a day. One serving of this product contains (x) grams of canola oil."
"There is ample scientific evidence to demonstrate these benefits from the unsaturated fats in canola oil," Haas said. "By using it in place of other common edible oils, consumers can increase their compliance with the latest dietary recommendations."
However, insiders are worried about what the move may mean for the industry as a whole. Since the health claims promote all canola oils, some companies have wondered why they would invest in claims that increase the sales of their competitors. Also, canola oil, along with olive oil, was granted it's heart health claim by the FDA because of it's low level of unsaturated fats, and experts say this may spur industry representatives for other oils to petition for the claim because of their oils' similar properties.
Although a proponent of healthy food ingredients, consumer health advocate and "Seven Laws of Nutrition" author Mike Adams advised skepticism.
"Do not celebrate these health claims too quickly," he said. "They are the FDA's way of easing off just slightly on the broad censorship now impacting all food and supplement companies.
"The FDA does not allow food companies to tell the truth about the health benefits of natural products like healthy oils, except in rare circumstances when powerful food groups lobby the agency to approve some watered-down claim," Adams said.

Ryan Callahan re-signs with Lightning for another six seasons
Ryan Callahan won't hit free agency after all. The Lightning signed the forward to a six-year contract extension on Wednesday.
More NHL Offseason: NHL rumors | Updating rumor mill | 2014-15 preseason odds
After the Lightning acquired Ryan Callahan from the Rangers in the Martin St. Louis deal, one big question was whether or not they could re-sign him in Tampa Bay. The answer is yes.
The Lightning announced Wednesday they have signed the former Rangers captain to a six-year contract extension to ensure he won't be just a rental. According to Pierre LeBrun, the contract carries a value of $34.8 million, or $5.8 million annually.
"I couldn't be happier to be part of the Tampa Bay Lightning organization for the next six years and I am excited for this new chapter of my career," Callahan said. "Tampa Bay has been a great place to live and play from the day I got there. As soon as the season ended I knew it was a place I wanted to be."
And why wouldn't he? The future is incredibly bright right now in Tampa Bay where they are simply stocked with high-end young talent to the point that Callahan is already a senior member of the team at 29.
Callahan, who had a career high of 29 goals in 2011-12, was having a much slower start in terms of offense last season in New York and was also seeing his role dip under Alain Vigneault. When it became clear he'd want more money than the Rangers could pay him, the trade for Martin St. Louis -- who had asked out of Tampa -- was made, a captain-for-captain swap.
Here's how the deal looks now that every part is complete.
So final book on trade is: #tblightning receive 2 1st round picks, 7th round pick and Ryan Callahan for Marty St. Louis and a 2015 2nd
— Erik Erlendsson (@erlendssonTBO) June 25, 2014
In the aftermath of the deal, Callahan scored six goals and five assists in 20 games for Tampa Bay, going above the 20-minute mark of ice time per game again. There definitely seemed to be a good fit for both sides.
It didn't always look like a deal would be reached, though. Callahan seemed at least intrigued by free agency and was looking for a fair amount of money, as you can see in the end what he received. Perhaps he could have earned a bit more in free agency but clearly it's a good situation in Tampa Bay moving forward.

The second time we've stayed in recent months. Location is great, nice and quiet in the Jewellery Quarter but there are still restaurants and bars nearby. Park at the nearby NCP carpark and you get a discount from the hotel.
Rooms are more like a cabin in a yacht and fairly small but the layout is well thoughout. Plump for a room with a window for a few quid more.
Finish of the rooms is very nice ultra modern with a tv imbedded in the foot end of the bed/wall, aircon is handy as the windows don't open but keeps things nice and cool. The bathroom is a wet room all in one type of affair with rain shower head and standard removable shower head. the bed is comfortable and large and overall it's a great hotel for a couple of nights.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Bloc hotel is located in Birminghams Jewellery Quarter. The village atmosphere created by its cafes-bars and restaurants is complemented by the business-shopping-arts and sports facilities that are also on its doorstep. We have taken loose inspiration from Japanese pod style hotels which means much larger rooms more akin to a cabin on a luxury yacht with finishes and fittings to match. The rooms are equipped with a King Size Double Bed-luxurious linen-climate control-wet room with monsoon drench shower-Samsung 32inch led flat screen TV and high speed WIFI. Birmingham is of course a centrally located travel hub and for many of our visitors that will be the most important factor in just how quickly and conveniently they can access the motorway network-national rail and international flights. ... more less

how to change your habit pattern?
Abhi Observation (11-Apr-2016 7:58PM)
How to change your habit pattern?
We know what is right and wrong at the surface level of intellect. We even try to act with our intellect or conscious mind. But the sub-conscious mind is reacting with their habit patterns. Do you know why it's happening? Because we are not aware of the sub-conscious mind. We are thinking and understanding that we are happy, but deep down inside we know something is not good, still we are not aware. Because our Dhyana is not there. Simply we have to go within and observing the habit patters of reacting. The subconscious mind is kept reacting with their habit patterns. When we take our Dhyana to root of reacting, that habit pattern is disappearing. I understood the Dhyana (the attention). Dhyana is the eye of wisdom. Dhyana with patience give you right understanding to see things as it is.

but now the novelty has worn off so we have a lot of full botles just sitting around in the back corner of the shed ... its a taste you have to get use too ..and i dont think we ever did
so one homebrewing kit ..give away in australia lol
The first batch fermented well, but had a slimey, snotty consistency. The second batch didn't seem to ferment at all. The third time, the culture just petered out before I could even make the full batch. Now I'm on attempt number four. I tried this several years ago, and it only worked the first time.
I feel like I must be cursed never to enjoy homebrewed ginger beer. :-)

Really liked the basic combination, except that I also found it on the bland side, despite adding around double the curry powder. Next time I'll try quadruple, but there'll definitely be a next time. (My dinner companion had some sort of Mexican hot sauce, and a couple drops of that made it really good.)

High-level Object-Oriented language chess engine
I am working on Chess Engine, in fact Chess Engines, and I choose to use high-level object-oriented scripting language!
This is totally inefficient to have a Chess Engine in High-Level language, especially Object-Oriented (and yes I do use classes, objects and it's fun!): they are far slower than any low-level language, and couldn't compare in any way to good optimized assembly code, using AVX or AVX2!
But for development, it's much more funny and cool to use a high-level language, it's tool, it's ability to detect errors, including array index errors, and in fact the most important thing is not how you optimize your code, but the quality of the algorithms, and for Chess that's all that matter.
Naturally, for a product, you will code it into low-level language (as ANSI-C or hand-written assembly for some functions), but this is the last part of the development, not it's core.
So, I am writing Chess Engines, I have choosen names that are no more in use, but will speak to people in their late forties (as myself) or older, because, they are history, they were dreaming about them, and probably, they want to play with them again, a sense of history…
It's also a tribute to Alain Turing, war hero – marathon man – computer scientist – IA pioneer – bad chess player – gay – genious (choose your flavor!), and also Dan & Kathe Spracklen, that have done the first microcomputer chess program that win a contest and beat million dollar minicomputers, they have made history of chess computing through TuroChamp and Sargon Chess.
The Mainframe Dinosaur
I was reading interesting some articles about Mainframes (aka "Big Iron"), stating that they are still interesting in our area of cloud computing, clusters of inexpensive computers, and availability of high-performance computing for the workstations.
What makes the Mainframe special
The mainframes are specially designed and engineered to provide an incredible physical uptime, with claims of IBM to have one downtime every 50 years usage on some series. They are delivered as a complete solution, with high tag price and usage licence for almost any software and hardware part, including the CPU.
The main selling point is to pretend to have an incredibly high CPU utilization on real-world usage, that IBM and other translates into "having massive throughput". In fact IBM refuse to compare it's mainframes to other solutions, explaining that "real-world" performance are far more better than benchmark results, rarely submitting their mainframes to industry-standard tests!
How to expand your CPU usage on a cluster?
Effectively, when you build a cluster of servers to handle a tasks, even with large RAID bays, and even SSD, you might end-up with your CPU waiting for IO tasks, even if you plan to aggregate graps of computing/database servers with dedicated storage bays (a good starting point).
It is *NOT* because you are a dummy, nor because your storage is too slow: your ratio computing power/storage IOps is just badly balanced, and it's the point where mainframes are largely superior!
To have a better balanced computing power/storage IOps, Mainframes usually have incredibly low processing power compared to their cost, thus keeping their expensive CPU with incredibly high usage rate!
Wanna show you could do the same with your actual workload? Just downclock your CPU, remove some CPU on multi-CPU boards, deactivate some core at the BIOS or Kernel level: you will end-up with a perfectly balanced solution, that could be compared to much more expensive Mainframe
Hardware vs. Service
We are switching from hardware and software into services, wether they are local, remote facilities, or on the cloud (Amazon, etc), we no more care about the servers, we don't want to have to. Instead we expect to have services, from low-level (ie: Amazon block-based storage) to high-level (ie: web-based enterprise CRM). And we just expect them to work.
How we now handle reliability
As Google, Amazon and other demonstrated, reliability is no more a matter of hardware, but a matter of networked service, running on many servers. And instead expecting the hardware to run incredibly well, it's expected to fail regularly.
The reliability is handled at the service-level (using frameworks such as OpenMP), to launch tasks on group of servers, relaunching some if some server fails, thus enabling usage of far less expensive servers, with quality parts but not relying on hardware redundancy. A side-effect is the electric power efficiency that is better than any other redundant architecture (thus reducing expenses!).
Dinosaurs for legacy software
These Mainframes Dinos are too expensive compared to any other solutions, they are not more reliable at the service-level (the one that really matter today!), they are proprietary in any way possible, and obsolete the same way big fast storage have been replaced by RAID arrays.
The only reason they are still there is to ensure compatibility with legacy software, and since the IBM/360 it has been the real selling point behind the official marketing line. Proprietary software vendors are locking companies into Dinosaur-era of computing, and they are paying the dimme to Mainframes manufacturer each year (or even each month!)…
Proprietary closed-source software have proven to be much more expensive than anyone might have thought when big companies bought (or leased) their firsts Mainframes…
Parallela: SuperComputing for all of us?
Adapteva presented a KickStarter project, Parallela, a $99 boards that promise super-computing for any one, with highly parallel RISC engine. Designed to be programmed using OpenCL drivers and compilers, it's an alternative to other OpenCL devices, including GPU, IBM Cell, etc.
This project is interesting at first, but I wonder who could be interested by this projet, even if you limit the budget at $99.
The Parallela board promised 32Gflops peak, for approximately 5W (maybe more on some cases), while a Quad-core PC with n OpenCL GPU will offers you 4000 Gflops (125X) for 500W (100X). A PC is easily 25% more efficient with a single GPGPU, and could offers as much as 2X more power efficiency (Gflops/Watt) with 3 or 4 GPU!
A $1000 PC configuration with an high-end GPU will cost you 10X the price of the Parallela boards, while delivering up to 125X the performance-level: it's 12X more effective on Gflops/$!
And it get worse if you consider having an high-end PC with 3 or 4 GPU!
Alternative at $99 price point
You might consider to invest $99 in an AMD Radeon HD 7750, that support OpenCL (and some other tools), and offers at leat 820 Gflops SP (25X faster) while adding up to 70W power-consumption.
That's 25X more Gflops / $ invested, and it's 3X more power-efficient if you already own a PC with an available slot! Ouch!
Development tools are available for Windows and Linux too, including Open-Source dev tools. Moreover your development will run as is on any PC or Mac having an OpenCL-enabled graphic card or CPU driver!
Parallela, the supercomputing for who?!?
The Adapteva chips are interesting if you plan to create embedded high-performance devices, but in no case Parallela could be considered a SuperComputer, neither in performance-level, in Gflops/Watt or in GFlops/$ invested.
Still it's an interesting project, because new players in the parallel-computing fields may be game changers in the long-run. The Epiphany-IV processor for example is far more interesting than the Epiphany-III proposed for Parallela, with 3X more performance on the same power enveloppe, and thus more power-efficient than a GPGPU solution.
Why not launching Parallela with Epiphany-IV directly?!?
nVidia Forums seriously hacked
One month ago, the nVidia forums have been hacked, and all the credentials have been stolen, including password hash, salted (but no confirmation at this time that the salt is unique to each account!).
One month after that the forums is still down; 3 weeks since nVidia promised to send new credential to reset our accounts and passwords. I wonder what's happening, did they have web developpers, or did they use a third-party closed-source software that could not be fixed by nVidia or consultants?!?
The nVidia Forum was one main point for CUDA and OpenCL developpers to exchange informations and ideas, and it's totally sad to see it down for so long…
For chess lovers
This is a website I discovered, with the help of Charle, an incredible guy
Bryan Whitby created it's own Computer Chess, using micro-controllers, existing Computer Chess, and any piece that fit in-between! It gaves me so much ideas!
I have a side-side-project, to connect my Novag Citrine with my Macs, but now I want to do it and go further, giving it autonomy (batteries) and eventually replace the electronic with a quad-core ARM micro-controller, to be able to run latest chess software on it, with a probable ELO of 2600-2700 while running on a battery pack! Sexxxxyyyyy!

There has been a growing trend of divorces involving immigrant women who were brought to the U.S. by an American citizen for the purposes of marriage and promises of living the American dream. Once in the U.S., and possibly a child or two later, the dream unravels and they are faced with the prospect of divorce in a foreign country without knowing the language and with no little to no earning capacity.
In Illinois, new maintenance guidelines allow for maintenance, formerly known as alimony, to be awarded based on the duration of the marriage and the income of both parties. Judges can only deviate from these guidelines if there is a strong justification for doing so. The problem for immigrant women is that they may not have a sufficiently lengthy marriage for a proper maintenance award. For example, a woman married for two years could receive little or no maintenance if she is young, healthy and well-educated. For an immigrant woman with no family members in the country, who may not be familiar with the language and has no employment prospects, the new maintenance guidelines could prove devastating, and may force women in abusive relationships to stay in the marriage.
However, more and more Courts have been upholding immigration affidavits of support that are filed by the husbands in the U.S., wherein they swear to financially provide for their immigrant spouse for an amount no less than 125% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines. The affiant swears to financially support his immigrant spouse until a triggering termination event, such as the sponsored immigrant becomes a naturalized citizen, completes 40 qualifying quarters (approximately 10 years) of work, dies, or becomes capable of providing for himself or herself. Divorce, however, is not a terminating event.
In Naik v. Naik, 399 N.J. Super. 390 (App. Div. 2008), the trial court refused to enforce the affidavit of support and found that the wife did not qualify for maintenance under statutory grounds. Surprisingly, the immigrant spouse in Naik argued the appeal herself, and won. The Appellate Court reversed the trial court's decision and found that the husband was bound by the affidavit of support he filed when petitioning to sponsor his souse's permanent residence, or green card, application. The Court stated that the court should set spousal and child support and equitable distribution of property, if applicable, and if the sponsored immigrant's sources of support fall below 125 percent of the Federal Poverty Guidelines, the sponsor is required to pay the deficiency only.
There is a 2011 Rule 23 opinion from the Illinois Appellate Court, Second District, In re Marriage of Amin, 2011 IL. App (2d) 100431-U, in which the immigrant spouse was awarded 18 months of maintenance, and the immigrant spouse argued that the affidavit of support was not considered properly in awarding her said award. The Court upheld the trial court's decision stating only that the trial court did not abuse its discretion as the maintenance amount would have been lower if the trial court used the affidavit of support.
It will be interesting to see the dynamic between the new Illinois maintenance guidelines and the affidavit of support. While trial courts previously had discretion to extend the amount of maintenance based on a spouse's education and financial circumstances, the new maintenance guidelines leave little to no room to argue for a longer maintenance award. As a result, I foresee there being more litigation utilizing affidavits of support in Illinois.

Gainesville, FL Instructors
Owner – Barre & Bodyflow Instructor
Brinn is from central California where she received her Masters in English. While writing for local magazines and teaching freshman composition, she has also been teaching a variety of group fitness formats (from yoga to kickboxing to weight lifting) for the past 7 years. When she took her first Barre class, she knew it was "the one"; she decided to change career paths and dive fully into fitness. Brinn loves the camaraderie and energy of group workout classes as well as encouraging her participants to "embrace the shake." It has been a longtime dream of hers to own a fitness studio, and she could not be more excited to bring Barre Forte to Gainesville. Brinn is also an avid triathlete and loves how Barre workouts compliment her training.
Alicia has been in the Fitness Industry for over 34 years; she is certified to teach everything from Aquatics to Yoga. She is also a Certified Personal Trainer through ACSM. Additionally, she is a Licensed Massage Therapist and has her own practice here in town. Alicia loves helping people learn how to make fitness a fun and healthy part of their everyday life!
Alicia's first experience at Barre Forte was actually at the instructor training, and when you meet her, you'll know she's the type of person who dives right in! She says it was easy to jump in because, on the morning of the training, she "was welcomed to Barre Forte with warm smiles, encouragement, and open arms." Barre's focus on form and technique go hand-in-hand with her other trainings and, since starting, Barre Forte has become her constant. No matter what else is going on in her day, she knows that she, and everyone at Barre Forte, will be encouraged and loved while meeting their best!
Alix was born and raised in Cape Coral, FL, but when her husband accepted a job in Gainesville they relocated with their daughter and two dogs. Being in a new town and deciding it was finally time to step out of her comfort zone, she tried her first Barre class after hearing a friend rave about the workouts. Alix was instantly hooked, and is now excited to share her passion with clients. She also has a love of fashion and interior styling, and currently manages a clothing boutique. However, her heart is in animal rescue, and she hopes to start a rescue of her own someday, but until she can get her husband on board with the idea, she is thankful they're able to foster dogs. When she's not at the boutique or the Barre, Alix loves to travel, see shows, and try new restaurants, but is just as happy baking with her daughter at home, or binge watching New Girl with her husband. Life is short, so finding new experiences and making memories with family and friends is one thing she always looks forward to. Look for Alix teaching challenging and fun classes throughout the week!
Deanna grew up in Tampa, but came to Gainesville for college. After earning her Master's in Math from UF, she started teaching at Santa Fe College. She's married with two young girls. After her second child, Deanna decided it was time to devote some time to herself and get fit so she could keep up with the kids. She tried a couple of different group exercise options, but really fell in love with Barre Forte. The combination of the welcoming and relaxed atmosphere with the encouragement to push yourself to meet your best hooked Deanna from the start. She loves the community of strong women she sees every time she's at "the Barre." She has attended over 250 classes and recently became a Barre instructor. She's eager to have you in class so she can help you meet YOUR best!
Erica was born and raised in Newberry, Florida. After graduating high school in 1999, she attended cosmetology school and has been a cosmetologist for the past 18 years! She met her husband Joey in 2006, and they've been married for 10 years. They have 3 children: Eva, Elizabeth, and Jaxon. Erica has always been engaged in athletics, playing volleyball and basketball throughout high school, running, and taking many group exercise classes to stay fit! She knew she wanted to become some kind of fitness instructor, and–after starting Barre a little over a year ago–she realized that this was the perfect format for her! She loves the mind-body connection Barre Forte creates, helping women not only strengthen themselves on the outside, but the inside as well. Barre Forte has helped her both mentally and physically to become a more confident woman! She has done a lot of physical fitness over the years, and never received the results that she has experienced from Barre. Erica believes in the Barre Forte method and is very excited about helping other women achieve their goals, too!
In 2007, Erica moved to Gainesville from the Tampa Bay area where she was born and raised. In addition to teaching Barre classes at Barre Forte Gainesville, she is a professor of special education at the University of Florida. Erica took her first class at Barre Forte Gainesville in September 2016 and has made herself at home in the studio with all the Barre Babes!
Erica will be an empty-nester when her daughter starts at the University of Delaware in fall 2017! She is excited to see what the next chapter of her life will include and is thrilled that Barre will be a big part of it. When she's not at the studio or on campus, she enjoys reading, traveling, eating–and preparing–good food. When you take classes with her be ready to Meet Your Best and have a good time!
Though she'll always consider her home to be the Cayman Islands, where she grew up for most of her life, Genet has lived in Miami, New York, and now Gainesville. She's currently finishing her degree in Christian counseling with Liberty University online. She's passionate about her role in her church and helping those around her. Genet recently married her husband Zack and moved to Gainesville to live with him. She is excited to be working at Barre Forte! While at the front desk, Genet loves making people feel welcome and comfortable. When not at work or doing schoolwork, she enjoys spending time with friends, baking cookies, and keeping up with church. She's so glad to be a part of the Barre Forte team (and we are glad to have her!).
Hannah was born in Gainesville and currently attends Santa Fe College as a dual-enrolled high school student. She began Barre classes with her sister (who's now an instructor) Sarah to stay fit when she stopped volleyball. Hannah wants to major in forensic science and loves traveling when she can. She hopes to attend a college out of state when she graduates in 2018.
Hannah will always greet you with a smile and enjoys talking and interacting with all the lovely Barre Babes. She loves working at Barre Forte and seeing all of the wonderful ways the instructors support every individual on a personal level, and she aspires to always make costumers feel like they are at home when they enter the studio. Hannah looks forward to meeting and getting to know every one of YOU!
Hannah was born in Phoenix, AZ and later moved to Orlando where she started taking group exercise classes and was introduced to BodyFlow. When she moved to Gainesville, Heather, one of our instructors and her mother, encouraged her to try barre to help condition and prepare for school lacrosse. When not taking classes or working at the front desk, she enjoys reading, watching Marvel movies, baking, lacrosse, and playing with her dog. She aspires to be a Marine Biologist. Hannah is very excited to be a part of the Barre Forte team!
Heather Nations was introduced to group fitness while earning her Bachelor of Health Science in Occupational Therapy at the University of Florida in the early 90s. While always a part of her life (and a welcome stress relief), it became a passion—and an essential component of her recovery after a Stage III Synovial Sarcoma diagnosis in 2007. She holds certifications in LesMills BODYPUMP, BODYVIVE, BODYSTEP, and BODYFLOW.
She strongly believes that group fitness is for everyone—and her background in therapy allows her to adapt classes—especially BODYFLOW—to maximize the experience for each individual. Her aim in every class is for you to leave feeling strong, calm, energized and positive.
When not teaching, Heather is a full time wife and mom of four amazing kids, and a part time administrative assistant at a local church—at least until she is able to pursue her next dream, a graduate degree. She couldn't be more excited to be part of the Barre Forte team and have the honor of bringing BODYFLOW to Northwest Gainesville.
Jackie is originally from Miami, FL. She moved to Gainesville, where she earned her Bachelors in Linguistics from the University of Florida and a Masters degree from Columbia, SC. Upon moving back to Gainesville, she tried desperately to find a fitness studio that she could call home. It wasn't until she found Barre Forte that she knew this was where she belonged! When she isn't at Barre Forte (and when the weather is cooler), you can find her training for a half marathon or running at the Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. In fact, don't be surprised if you see her around UF- Jackie also works there! During her full-time gig, she trains student leaders, faculty and staff, and supports new students in their transition to college. If you ever want to chat about running, Grey's Anatomy, fashion, or the latest Hollywood gossip — Jackie is your girl!
Born in Boston, MA, and growing up along the CT shoreline, Jennifer's first experience with yoga was a weekly Power Vinyasa class at the gym in 1999. After moving to NYC in 2003 to pursue an art career, she quickly discovered that consistent yoga practice offered a calm in the midst of hectic city life, as well as presenting a valuable tool for dealing with her own chronic pain issues. She loves having the opportunity to spend time helping others uncover the many benefits of yoga! Her classes focus on alignment, mind/body connection, physical and emotional restoration and strength building.
Jennifer moved to Gainesville in 2011 with her amazing husband and daughter and loves to kayak, cook, travel and laugh. She received her 200 hour Hatha Yoga and 60 hour Vinyasa Flow Yoga certifications from Shambhava Yoga Shoshoni in Rollinsville, CO and is registered with Yoga Alliance.
Kathy has been coming to Barre Forte – Gainesville since July of last year, and she loves the accepting culture here.

Katie is a proud Army brat who has called Gainesville her home for the past 7 years. Katie took her first barre class at Barre Forte in July of 2015and instantly fell in love. She finally found a workout that was challenging and fun! She has loved getting to know all the wonderful instructors and women that attend the classes. Katie has especially enjoyed BodyFlow, which provides a challenging yet relaxing workout.

Her adventures include competitive rock climbing, horse jumping, and Heli-Snowboarding in addition to cross-country skiing and backpacking. With a strong background in Pilates and Power Yoga, it was only natural for Kimberly to discover the amazing benefits of Barre. Barre Forte has become her home away from home, and she was hooked after her first class. Kimberly loves how the women she meets at Barre Forte are such an inspiration, and she loves coming to the studio to unwind. She says, "Barre has transformed my body. Every hour of barre is a personal journey and I love every minute of it."
Kristy is originally from the Orlando area and moved to Gainesville to attend the University of Florida, where she earned a Bachelor's degree in Criminology. Kristy made a home in Gainesville in 2007 when she found her career in law enforcement at the University of Florida Police Department. Having spent years cheering and dancing, Kristy instantly found her niche after her best friend and fellow Barre Instructor Mandy introduced her to Barre Forte – Gainesville. She loves the physical challenge, fun music, and positive atmosphere!
When not at the Barre, Kristy likes to relax by reading or spending time with her friends, sorority sisters, and family, including her husband Will, two step-sons, and all of their pets. She is also passionate about fashion and traveling, having visited Italy, France, England, Ireland, and Ukraine, but she still has a long list of destinations she hopes to experience! Get ready for a kick-butt class with Kristy!
Lauren is from Sarasota, FL, and moved to Gainesville in 2009 to pursue her bachelor's degree in economics and accounting. After graduating and starting her career in banking, she decided to make Gainesville home. She and her boyfriend Michael bought their first home in 2014. In their free time, you can catch them enjoying the restaurants and bike trails throughout Gainesville!
Lauren developed a love for group fitness ten years ago when taking yoga and Pilates classes to manage the stresses of coursework. With a job that requires much travel, it was difficult to find a fitness routine that she could commit herself to. However, after taking her first few Barre and BodyFlow classes, she fell in love with Barre Forte. Barre challenges her with every class and BodyFlow provides the perfect balance of zen while helping her get stronger and more flexible. She loves the way the BodyFlow choreography is perfectly complemented by the music and can be modified to meet all fitness needs. Lauren can't wait for you to join her in getting your flow on!
Lindsey is a Northwest Georgia native who gravitated to Atlanta to study Chemical Engineering at Georgia Tech. While attending Tech, Lindsey was a part of the cheerleading program where she was exposed to intense team fitness training programs provided by the athletic association.

She felt the familiarity she craved in a group fitness atmosphere that was challenging and fun. Lindsey recently moved to Gainesville and is working on becoming an instructor at Barre Forte. She looks forward to meeting each of YOU!

Sarah was born and raised in Alachua, FL; she is a small town girl with a big city heart. She and her husband of 9 years, Derek, recent welcomed their first child Bryce into their home (and hearts) last year. And, in turn, Sarah tried Barre as an enjoyable way to lose her baby weight.

Sarah is a hairstylist by day (when she's not at theBarre), and had been cutting and styling hair for 10 years. She is extremely passionate about hair and fashion, and travels frequently with her family during her free time. While Hawaii is her favorite destination as of yet, New York City is a close second. With a love of performance, fashion and big city life, NYC is her home away from home!
Barre Forte has truly changed her in many ways. Increased energy improved body position while at work, and, in general "feeling great" are just a few of the benefits she has experienced from the studio. Check out our new BarreTender, Sarah – she is silly, energetic, and can't wait to have you in her class!

I'm Mac McNeill and I'm a collector. It sounds like an AA sentence and, in a way, collecting is an addiction. I collected baseball cards and coins as a kid, books as an adult, and images of Fort Collins since I retired here about 15 years ago. I love collecting. The only thing that comes close to the joy of finding a new image to add to my collection is the fun of sharing the images with others.
I've shared some of my images through a series of local history books, co-authored with my friend, Barbara Fleming. There are three of them – Fort Collins: The Miller Photographs, Then and Now: Fort Collins, and Images of America: Poudre Canyon. I've also privately published two other books in areas of special interest to me; The Automobile Comes to Fort Collins and The Early Photographers of Fort Collins. And I've shared images through presentations for various local history organizations and at the Discovery Museum. Now I'd like to share some of them with you through this blog.
This is a photo-blog, a blog that leads with images. But, I also like our early the history, when we were a small western town and I'll try to add a few facts with each image. The images I share will quickly tell you the things I like; streets and buildings, businesses, the old hotels, the towns that have disappeared, and most anything with an old automobile. But I also like photography and photographers, so I'll favor the stories of the people who made the images we get to enjoy today and to the kinds of images they made, for example, stereoviews, cabinet cards, and real photo postcards.
If you love the history of Fort Collins, I think you'll enjoy these pictures and stories. Please use the Comments section to share your love or to tell me when you think my facts are wrong or email me at the address shown below. I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks for looking,
Mac McNeill

After some tinkering with the palindrome? function I presented in the previous blog post I received a bunch of very educative responses that ultimately guided me to the following slimmer version of the palindrome? function.
(defn palindrome? [s] (= s (reduce #(str %2 %) s))) (is (palindrome? "21022012"))
There's no
map function, but the point was to have it if it could improve the function.
I could also find traces to java.lang.StringBuffer.reverse() which "causes this character sequence to be replaced by the reverse of the sequence", but the variation of the palindrome? function is certainly not shorter and moreover I don't think it's even prettier.
UPDATE on 02/24: The function changed after the comment of Denis where he pointed out the excessive parens around
.reverse and
str functions. The palindrome? function is now slightly improved.
UPDATE on 02/24: The function changed after the comment of Nander where he pointed out to use java.lang.StringBuilder as "This class is designed for use as a drop-in replacement for StringBuffer in places where the string buffer was being used by a single thread (as is generally the case). Where possible, it is recommended that this class be used in preference to StringBuffer as it will be faster under most implementations".
(defn palindrome? [s] (= s (-> (StringBuilder. s) .reverse str)))
Note the space between the dot and "reverse" in
(. reverse) (the line 2). You could have the s-expression with and without the space (!)
Looking at clojure.string/reverse doesn't reveal anything better, either.
(defn ^String reverse "Returns s with its characters reversed." {:added "1.2"} [^CharSequence s] (.toString (.reverse (StringBuilder. s))))
I'd say it's even uglier with the
(.toString) call, at least length-wise. Could it be that using Java methods is faster than their Clojure counterparts?
I'd like to thank Mark, Andrew, Craig, Norman, Si Yu and Manuel for their inspirational comments, and tweets from Sean and Neale. You guys helped me a lot to get closer to functional programming zen in Clojure :) It matters a lot to me!

Who do Raina and San E think is the best idol rapper? On Moon Hee Jun's Pure 15+, Raina and San E took a blind rap test and chose between rap samples from Block B's Zico, Bangtan Boys' Rap Monster and B.A.P's Bang Yongguk.
Impressively, Raina was able to identify each rapper by his voice, even in the blind test.
"Do you just watch YouTube videos all day in the dorm?" Moon Heejun wanted to know.
Raina also revealed which rapper of the three she would want to work with. She chose Bang Yongguk, because his deep tones would make the female vocals stand out.
Hearing that, San E teased, "So Raina just wants to stand out." Everyone burst into laughter.

Multitarget Drugs of Plants Origin Acting on Alzheimer's Disease
The etiopathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is extremely complex and heterogeneous, often associated with comorbidities. As a result it may be unlikely that AD may be mitigated by drug acting on a single specific target. The current tendency in drug design and discovery in AD is the rational design or "serendipitous" discovery of new drug entities challenging multiple targets. Since two of the presently approved drugs for AD are based on natural products (galantamine and the physostigmine-derivative rivastigmine), many plants are now under investigation as a potential source of new drugs. Multifunctional drugs often have their origin in natural sources. This review is limited to plant chemicals having different targets with actual (galantamine) or promising (drugs from Crocus sativus, Ginkgo biloba, Salvia species, and Huperzia serrata) clinical evidence in people with dementia or AD.

A 6-1 victory by Sobieski over Upsala kept the Skis undefeated at 8-0 and vaulted them atop of the Victory League West standings.
Thomas Miller put the Skis out front when he hit a two-run bomb off of Upsala starter Matt Swanson in the bottom of the fourth inning, Sunday, June 11.
"He was pounding outside off the black and he left a changeup out over the plate little bit and I put a pretty good swing on it," Miller said.
Tyler Jendro pitched solidly, especially after getting out of a jam in the fourth inning. Jendro allowed only two base runners in the final five innings. In total he tossed a complete game, allowing one run on eight hits.
Collin Eckman smacked a solo home run in the eighth to tack on the sixth Sobieski run.
Dustin Biniek was 2-for-4 with an RBI to lead Upsala. Brandon Welinski also had a pair of hits.
"We know that any time we play these guys it is going to be a battle, and it's going to be competitive," Miller said.
For Upsala, it was the team's second straight loss, having fallen 3-1 against St. Stephen, June 9.
In that one, Eric Lampert singled in Matt Swanson to tie the game in the bottom of the fourth.
However, the Steves regained the lead for good in the top of the fifth inning.
The game was under the lights in Freeport.
Also Friday night, June 9, Nisswa took care of Royalton 15-4 in seven innings.
Royalton was led by Brady Moulzolf, who had three hits and scored twice.
Nisswa clubbed four home runs.
Royalton was a busy team, as it lost Saturday, June 10, 15-0 in five innings to Ft. Ripley. The Riverdogs did bounce back and 10-run the Pierz Bulldogs, 15-5, Sunday, June 11.
In the loss to Ft. Ripley, Nick Jelacie went 4-for-6 with a home run and five RBIs for the Rebels.
Nate Benusa and Nathan Psyck had the only two hits for Royalton.
In Sunday's victory it was Moulzolf that led the Riverdogs, going 4-for-4 and scoring five times. Psyck also hit a home run and drove in five.
Ryan Foreman had three hits to lead the Bulldogs.
In other action, Sunday, the Pierz Brewers split a pair of games.
First, the Brewers fell 10-0 in seven innings to Ft. Ripley.
Bret Kramer scored three times and drove in a run without being credited for an at-bat.
Buckman remained the single one-loss team in the Victory League East with an 11-9 win over Cuyuna.
The Billygoats began the game with an offensive explosion and led 11-2 entering the bottom of the ninth.
Jeremy Monson hit a home run, walked three times and drove in four runs.
However, Buckman allowed seven runs in the bottom of the final frame, but managed to hang on for its fifth win of the year.
Noah Boser scored three times for the Billygoats.
To close out the day, two late games went on at the Hellie Field at Pierz Legion Park.
St. Mathias played a doubleheader, losing to both Lastrup (10-2) and the Pierz Brewers (5-0).
In game one, brothers Brad and Cody Meyer faced off.
Cody was taken out after allowing five runs on four hits in four innings.
Brady went the distance, allowing two runs on six hits.
Paul Herman smacked a home run and Rick Schlieman had three hits and scored three times to power the Lakers offense.
Evan Woitalla had three hits to lead the Devils.
The Brewers bounced back to remain tied with Lastrup on top of the east with a 5-0 shutout of the Devils.
Mike Poser out-dualed Cody Meyer, as both pitchers went all nine innings. Poser scattered six hits.
Jeremy Payne led the Brewers with a pair of doubles, while Woitalla again led St. Mathias with a pair of hits.
The schedule for area teams on Sunday, June 18 is: Swanville at Freeport (noon), Sobieski at Flensburg (1 p.m.); at 1:30 p.m.: Buckman at Royalton, St. Mathias at Cuyuna, Nisswa at Fort Ripley, Avon at Randall and Pierz Bulldogs at Aitkin; Swanville at Upsala (4 p.m.) and Sobieski at Freeport (5 p.m.).

I picked up archery. So that's awesome.
Oh yeah, and it's spring here! The plum trees are blossoming, in just a few months we'll have a plethora of juicy sweet plums. Luke and his brother built me three new raised beds, so I'll be filling them with veggie starts tomorrow and we're hoping to finally get chickens this year.
But here's a note on bike theft, I had let a friend borrow my bike, this friend left the bike locked up overnight in a public place - never ever ever ever do this. Also, always use a u-lock and lock the frame and front wheel. Ok? Everyone got that? Let's work together to decrease bike theft.
Also, if you read this blog for the tid bits about cycling - I highly recommend following my new blog, www.velodious.com on which I cover Sacramento cycling culture and events.

The Moridbund War, colloquially known as the Great Dying, occurred 45,000 - 44,950 Years ago in the Skyverse. The conflict was fought between the god-tiered species of the Skyverse, with seveal powerful kingdoms in mix as well, most of which were just simply caught in the crossfire.
This event became known as the Skyverse's most severe extinction event, as several different species of animals and humanoid races being wiped out completely, with several of the more powerful species such as the Avens, Dragons and Lesser Gods becoming few in numbers.

Our house went on the market today. Not the one we live in now. That would be too close at hand manageable. The house on sale is clear across the continent. Out of my sight. Beyond my reach. Way past my control.
This is crazy making to the max for me. There is no way I can escape being distracted – also to the max. Yet I am a writer with expectations to fulfill. What am I to do?
The most obvious choice would be to blow the writing off hard enough to push it as far away as my property with the For Sale sign in the yard.
"Life has intruded," I could exclaim. "Life is bulldozing me under mounds of anxiety at the moment."
Everyone would understand and empathize with that – especially my writing colleagues. But abandonment would not be the right choice for me – not even the choice that would make me less anxious at this or any anxious time. There are other alternatives for my writerly soul.
I could remind myself that struggle is always a source of great writing material. Accordingly I would write down everything I am feeling as my circumstances play mash-up with my mind and metabolism and I struggle to prevail.
I would not journal the experience – not enough story juice that way. I would dramatize the scene in all its vividness and every sensual detail.
The scent of the air wafting through the window as I hyperventilate. The color I see through my eyelids as I squeeze them shut. The sound of the world as it has the nerve to spin obliviously on. And always the taste of fear – for once not described as metallic.
For dialog I would record the conversations with myself – with my demons – with my wishes – with my higher power.
Today I chose a less colorful alternative. I worked on something that required little original thinking or the stamina originality demands. Most of the original thinking had already been done. I revised something in need of revision.
Each avenue leads in the same direction. Through the predicament – into the writing – out the other side with something accomplished along the way. World and writing collide and fuse and release energy in the form of productivity.
Now if somebody would only buy my house.

Functional Training: For Your Best Season Ever!
When I say "… Your Best Season Ever," I'm talking about you, the athlete looking for that extra edge on their competition. The reason for this is that if I can get you to focus on consistent functional strength training now, and continue that throughout the season, you'll have much improved results with less injury down time.
Simply put, functional training is any type of exercise that has a direct relationship to the activities performed in your daily life. Originally a term coined from the rehabilitative world of physiotherapy, functional training began to circulate around healthy populations, more specifically for sport performance. But one must always recognize that injury prevention was a key component as to why functional training crept into healthy and even athletic populations. I like to call this 'prehab', preventing the likelihood of getting injured and going through 'rehab'. What made FT so successful with athletes is that because FT almost always involves the core or midsection of your body. All sport performance (or movement for that matter) originates from the core, whether you're a baseball pitcher or marathon runner.
Here are a list of reasons why functional training is beneficial:
- Prevents Injury. If your soft tissues (muscles, joint tendons, fascia) are more resilient to the daily chores of training and racing, your ability to resist fatigue can allow you to hold a set pace for longer or to increase speed over a given distance.
- Increases Core Stability and Awareness. If you're able to hold a prime athletic posture over longer periods of time, you will use less energy required to finish that interval (or maybe to simply get through your day pain free). The more stable the core, the more efficient power is transferred from the lower to upper body.
- Multi Plane. A properly designed program will stimulate most if not all muscle groups from all planes of movement. All too often, I witness 'old school' gym exercisers working on their front and back saggital plane, with no exercises in the transverse plane, such as lateral lunges or plank with a rotation.
- Incorporates ALL 4 Pillars of Movement: 1) Standing or Locomotive 2) Changes in level 3) Pushing or Pulling 4) Rotation
- Improves Muscular and Stability Imbalances. The body thrives on symmetry. What more needs to be said.
- Time Efficient. Because you are working many different muscles in different planes, your time spent in the gym is less. Gym sessions can average 40min and during your peak training phase, 1hr at the most.
- Interesting and Fun. Workouts are only limited by your imagination. Multiple modalities and protocols are a must in order to stay motivated!
Functional training should be progressive (always seeing improvements and positive changes), varied (find more ways to use your body weight, the body ball or the TRX) and individualized (no cookie cutter programs here!). Otherwise you may not see that increased strength, endurance, speed, power, flexibility and stability that you so deserve!
What are the tools needed to train functionally? Pretty much everything in a gym. They include: floor mats, body ball, bosu ball, medicine ball, balance boards, body weight training (including Plyometrics), free weights, kettlebells, tubing or therabands, and even conventional weight machines if they are used creatively and unconventionally.
Functional training modes and methods are best explored with the help of a qualified and experienced trainer. Working one-to-one or in pairs with a trainer who is intimately familiar with the nuances, details, and complexities of each form of movement yields big dividends in the form of results, skills development, confidence building and efficiency.
Athletic Endeavors offers three guided pathways to exploring functional training:
Functional Training: Refresher
Designed for those with gym experience who are currently working out at a fitness centre. It is ideal for those who are familiar with the fundamentals of strength and endurance training who want to go beyond weight machines and conventional training. The focus includes teaching you a repertoire of functional training exercises using a wide range of equipment options, sequencing and programming suggestions. My primary goal here is to get you to think 'outside the box' of what you 'normally' do. Highlights: Includes 15 minute initial phone consultation, 2 x 1.0 hour hands-on training sessions, learning resources, and follow-up phone call.
Cost: $180
Functional Training: Mastery
Learn to be independent, productive and decisive in any fitness environment anywhere in the world. This program is designed for both newcomers and those with experience. For someone new to working-out, it is an ideal way to avoid common mistakes that seriously reduce the effectiveness of training sessions and develop "best practices" skills right from the start. My goal with this option is to equip you with the tools, knowledge and experience to be your own personal trainer! Yes, that's right I'm replacing myself by building your competency! Highlights: Includes 2 x 15 minute initial and follow-up phone call consultation, 6 x 1.0 hour hands-on training sessions with a focus on developing a repertoire of functional training exercises; and sequencing, structuring and building a routine for any activity or sport.
Cost: $450
Functional Training: Intensive
Ongoing directed one-on-one or small group personal training with an emphasis on balanced and creative functional training workouts. Let me do the programming and the motivating – leaving you (and maybe a friend) to focus on the doing the serious work. With this option the only thing standing between you and your goals is time and, as time goes on, the results speak for themselves. Highlights: Leave the programming, pacing and sequencing to me so you can focus getting the most from each session. Includes 15 minute initial phone consultation, 10 x 1.0 hour fully directed training sessions.
Cost: $650
Athletic Endeavors additional services:
Body Composition Assessment:
A Body Composition assessment is about going beyond the scale, which says very little about the nature of body composition changes over time. Using a scale to chart body composition changes is like using a cartoon map to find your way around town. It doesn't tell you much about the place you're at and the info it provides is simplistic and distorted. A much better way to get an accurate and undistorted snapshot of your body composition is to gather more and better data than what the scale says. Multiple points of data versus just one. Athletic Endeavours obtains scale weight, measures critical skin folds from around the body, takes specific diameter measurements at various sites around the body, with an option to include photos (pictures "remember" better than one's memory!)
Cost: $80
Fitness Assessment:
A fitness assessment is a great way to find out where you are at this moment in time in muscular strength and endurance, aerobic conditioning, and flexibility. Establishing benchmarks is an important first step in setting realistic and attainable goals. For a typical client, there are few things more motivating than discovering that the "improvements" that one "feels" are indeed real. Assessments include muscular strength, endurance, flexibility; aerobic fitness, aerobic capacity and others.
Cost: $100
Functional Training Program:
A functional strength and endurance program provides a custom-tailored 8-10 week plan of balanced multi-joint exercises using a variety of equipment options to move you decisively towards your goals. You won't be hammering through multiple sets of bicep curls or wasting your time with triceps kickbacks in any of Athletic Endeavours custom programs. If it ain't functional, it ain't worth it – as they say. Be prepared to work, to learn, to be engaged body and mind, and to enjoy the results of thoughtful and deliberate program design.
Cost: $100

One of the persistent strands in U.S. political life is a cultish extremism that approaches fascism. This was given expression and reinforced during the two terms of Barack Obama. "I believe in American exceptionalism with every fiber of my being," said Obama, who expanded the United States' favorite military pastime: bombing and death squads ("special operations") as no other president has done since the Cold War.According to a Council on Foreign Relations survey, in 2016 alone Obama dropped 26,171 bombs. That is 72 bombs every day. He bombed the poorest people on earth, in Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen, Somalia, Syria, Iraq, Pakistan.Every Tuesday — reported the New York Times — he personally selected those who would be murdered by mostly hellfire missiles fired from drones. Weddings, funerals, shepherds were attacked, along with those attempting to collect the body parts festooning the "terrorist target." A leading Republican senator, Lindsey Graham, estimated, approvingly, that Obama's drones killed 4,700 people. "Sometimes you hit innocent people and I hate that," he said, "but we've taken out some very senior members of Al Qaeda."Like the fascism of the 1930s, big lies are delivered with the precision of a metronome, thanks to an omnipresent media whose description now fits that of the Nuremberg prosecutor: "Before each major aggression, with some few exceptions based on expediency, they initiated a press campaign calculated to weaken their victims and to prepare the German people psychologically … In the propaganda system … it was the daily press and the radio that were the most important weapons."Take the catastrophe in Libya. In 2011, Obama said Libyan president Muammar Gaddafi was planning "genocide" against his own people. "We knew … that if we waited one more day, Benghazi, a city the size of Charlotte, could suffer a massacre that would have reverberated across the region and stained the conscience of the world."
This was the known lie of Islamist militias facing defeat by Libyan government forces. It became the media story and NATO — led by Obama and Hillary Clinton — launched 9,700 "strike sorties" against Libya, of which more than a third were aimed at civilian targets. Uranium warheads were used; the cities of Misurata and Sirte were carpet-bombed. The Red Cross identified mass graves, and UNICEF reported that "most (of the children killed) were under the age of ten."
Under Obama, the U.S. extended secret "special forces" operations to 138 countries, or 70 percent of the world's population. The first African-American president launched what amounted to a full-scale invasion of Africa. Reminiscent of the "Scramble for Africa" in the late 19th century, the U.S. African Command has built a network of supplicants among collaborative African regimes eager for U.S. bribes and armaments. Africom's "soldier to soldier" doctrine embeds U.S. officers at every level of command from general to warrant officer. Only pith helmets are missing.

The tiny town of Gustine, Texas is just one of those towns that "gets it." I don't know any other way to explain the fact that a handful of volunteers pull off a reunion, homecoming, and rodeo that keep people coming back year after year after year.
The day started with fun things to do for the children, baking contest, cookoff, and some great entertainment.
However, this year, it was the class reunions that really drew our attention here at Texans United, and it was easy to see that classmates from once upon a time had a ball reliving old memories of Gustine, Texas!
I am going to title these photos as 1,2, and 3. If you would like to add years or names, feel free to do so below.
I have to apologize to so many of you who attended school in Gustine, Texas and have asked me over and over to publish the following photos. This was one time that I just could not get it done!

The Stamping Boutique is this week's sponsor at 2S4Y and I played :D
here is the sketch
and my take
"Fun" fact about this card: the distressed look is actually an "accident" :D see that green/brown glittered strip (it's a DCWV paper)... you know how much I love to use pleats in my projects (if only i can DO that to my digital layouts I would, lol!)... nweis, you see the paper got torn while i was folding it :P so I decided to distress everything.... I was going for a clean look and it turned into this, lmao! :D
I used watercolor, colored pencils (just subtle shading for a deeper color, no baby oil heehee) for the TSB image (a previous freebie). The papers were a mix of OA and CC? I think.... inked with Colorbox chalk ink, stitched with DMC thread, used an EK success border puncher as well.. brown trim and brad from my stash...finished off with a handwritten sentiment...
Hugs to all, Donna
