Agave sweetener is a fairly recent sugar alternative that is predominantly produced from the Agave tequiliana species also used to make the popular distilled alcoholic beverage known as tequila.
First introduced to the U.S. health food market in 1995 via the Natural Products Expo West trade show, it was largely promoted as a low glycemic, low calorie, natural raw sweetener. Advertised under the label "agave nectar" or "blue agave syrup", it became a popular alternative sugar used in "healthy" brands of raw chocolate, ice cream, salad dressing, ketchup and protein bars.
By the early 2000's it was a widely used syrup commonly found in local co-ops as well as large chain health food stores. It was consumed by many vegetarians and those following a raw vegan diet, and became a frequently utilized ingredient in many raw dessert recipes made at home or prepared in raw vegan restaurants.
For a while, everyone loved agave, that is until about 2009 when agave was essentially exiled as a nutritious natural syrup, deemed an extremely processed "high fructose" sugar equated with that of high fructose corn syrup.
In April of 2009 Rami Nagel, author of "Cure Tooth Decay: Heal and Prevent Cavities with Nutrition", released an article entitled, "Agave: Nectar of the Gods?", chiefly criticizing its high fructose content. The information he provided was an unsourced sugar profile report analyzing the two main commercial agave sources, Nekutli (Madhava) and Iidea (Wholesome Sweeteners), as well as raw honey and maple syrup. Agave was presented to contain between 70-85% fructose, twice as much as raw honey and a considerable amount more than maple syrup, which contains more sucrose than fructose.
In the article he made some good points about the processing techniques used and condemned the mislabeling made by these two leading agave manufacturers at that time. He essentially accused them of false advertising and making it appear as if agave was simply the extracted unprocessed "nectar" straight from the agave plant, rather than a refined high fructose variety.
A month later, both Sally Fallon and Rami Nagel co-wrote an article entitled "Agave Nectar: Worse Than We Thought" in which they compared agave syrup to high fructose corn syrup. One of their main points was the concept that agave was a marketing ploy intentionally introduced by corporate agave monopoly's in an underhanded way to replace high fructose corn syrup, a sugar with the growing reputation as an "unhealthy" sweetener.
In July 2009 Dr. Joseph Mercola published his first article on agave entitled, "Agave: A Triumph of Marketing over Truth" which made a huge impact on the holistic health community and his large health-conscious fan base.
In short, a once favorite sweetener consumed in many raw vegan circles as well as among a broad range of health enthusiasts, was slowly discounted in the months and years to follow.
The subsequent information below is what we have found in our own personal research on agave sweetener in an attempt to genuinely get behind the truth of the matter.
As we discussed, many top health experts opposing agave's use as a sugar substitute often compare the plants "starch content" to that of corn syrup, produced from a high starch vegetable. There is, however, NO starch in agave, rather it contains fructans or fructooligosaccharides (FOS), also called oligofructose, which are polymers of the fructose molecule.
These fructans can be further broken down into substances referred to as "inulins", a class of dietary fibers often found in roots and rhizomes of certain species as a way to store energy.
According to Wikipedia, "Most plants that synthesize and store inulin do not store other forms of carbohydrate such as starch." (Source) Agave sweetener is technically classified as a "hydrolyzed inulin syrup" for this reason.
The inulin is hydrolyzed into the two main simple sugars fructose and glucose. While all commercial agave syrups are definitely a concentrated source of fructose, some undergo high temperature and chemical processing methods which can significantly increase fructose content. Those that are not high heat processed and employ low-temp evaporation techniques are found to offer much lower levels of fructose as well as a balance of other sugar content.
Although high fructose corn syrup has been compared to some refined low quality agave nectar's, lets first get the facts straight.
HFCS is made from milled corn starch and a process that converts its sugars and concentrates its fructose content into varying grades between 42-90% total fructose.
Conversely, agave sweetener is processed from the natural fructan polysaccharides that exists in the core of the plant when ripe.
As mentioned, the worst commercial agave syrups to consume are those that have gone through a high degree of processing, considerably concentrating the fructose percentages. This includes being cooked or baked at high temperatures over 140°F (60°C) for 36 hours or more, in addition to being exposed to harsh chemical treatment.
Even Dr. Mercola himself admits in a 2011 Huffington Post article that some agave products are not as bad as others, stating that "Part of the problem leading to the confusion is that there are some natural food companies that are indeed committed to excellence and in providing the best product possible. But let me assure you that in the agave industry, this is the minority of companies."
He goes on to further state that these "ethical companies" quote:
In our research, not all agave is composed of the same sugar profile. According to Nutrition Data, a non-bias nutritional information resource, different types of agave show different ratios of fructose, glucose and sucrose. Inulin levels are not however available, although it is probably safe to assume that it is a large percentage of the total dietary fiber content.
(Analysis of the blue agave Southwestern species, based on a 28g (2T) serving size and a 2000 calorie diet)
As we have stated, not all agave is created equal because the
manufacturing process and ratios of sugar content may vary considerably. According to the
nutritional information provided, raw agave, in
terms of fructose percentage and other sugar ratios, seems to be a much better option over
cooked agave sweeteners.
Unfortunately, there are no raw labeling laws or guidelines requiring companies to state specific processing temperatures on the label. In effect, the term "raw" can be used freely without adhering to low-temperature processing. Some brands may therefore use it as a marketing device, while others genuinely are producing a low heat (under 118°F or 48°C) treated sweetener. So, in other words, it is really up to the integrity of the company you purchase your agave from.
If you do decide to use agave as a sugar alternative, we would recommend using the raw minimally processed sweetener. Our top recommendations for agave are Raw Ojio Clear Agave Nectar (Ultimate Superfoods),Volcanic Blue Agave (Global Goods) and Premium Light Agave (Raw Food World).
According to our direct communications with Ultimate Superfoods, the sugar profile for their agave contains 64.5% fructose, 12.7% dextrose, 0.2% sucrose and 1.1% maltose. Global Goods is 47.6% fructose and 16.7% dextrose/glucose, they also state on the bottle that it is "processed at 118°F (48°C)." (Source)
In a 2010 article written by David Wolfe entitled "The Agave Blues", he expresses that "If you select agave as a sweetener, only use certified organic clear agave of the type Ultimate Superfoods distributes. Be sure to request that every company selling agave provide laboratory data that their product is free of chemicals, contains a low percentage of fructose, contains a high percentage of inulin, and is free of toxic saponins."
The top two "health food" brands of commercial agave syrups are Madhava and Wholesome Sweeteners. It is ultimately up to one's personal taste preferences and health goals whether or not you choose to consume these agave nectar products as there is some question about their potentially high ratio of "free fructose" sugar content.
On the Wholesome Sweeteners website it states that "Wholesome! Fair Trade Organic Blue Agave is made up of 75% Fructose, 20% Dextrose [Glucose] and the balance is inulin (dietary fiber) and mannitol."
Based on an email conversation, Madhava states that their product labeled "raw agave" contains a minimum 84% fructose, maximum 13% dextrose and maximum 2% sucrose.
While high fructose sweeteners, especially in the form of "free fructose", are known to have a lower glycemic index and glycemic load when compared to pure sucrose or white refine sugar, large amounts have shown to be linked to a number of health implications when consumed over a period of time.
Some of these negative impacts may include decrease in glucose tolerance, increase in uric acid formation as well as insulin resistance, obesity and triglyceride levels associated with heart disease.
For this reason, we do not recommend consuming concentrated high fructose sweeteners on a regular basis, especially in large quantities. Even higher quality agave is best used with other ingredients in recipes, not ingested alone in liquid teas or drinks, but balanced with other foods.
(For more on agave visit our agave nectar page.)
Inulin fructans are soluble dietary fibers and recognized for their prebiotic effects on gut microbiota, which encourage the growth of microflora like Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus.
In one 2015 double blind study analyzing agave, it was shown that "agave fructans are well tolerated in healthy human subjects and increased bifidobacteria and lactobacilli numbers in vitro and in vivo."
Inulin and fructooligosaccharides (FOS), however, has also been found to encourage the growth of Klebsiella, which is problematic for those with leaky gut. Different yeast strains, like Candida albicans, may also consume inulin and therefore agave sweeteners should be avoided in cases of yeast overgrowth or dysbiosis.
Inulin fructans are viewed commercially as beneficial sugars to use in a number of consumer products because they are minimally digested and provide attributes that reduce the amount of calories and add soluble dietary fiber. Properties of which are considered appropriate for diabetics as they are a low glycemic sweetener.
Inulins remain intact throughout the digestive process until they hit
the large intestine. This is where bacteria feed off of inulin, but as a
side effect may cause the release of carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and/or
methane, particularly for those who don't usually consume inulin-based
sugars, like agave sweetener. This rapid fermentation in the colon may
cause gas, bloating and aggravate those with IBS.
In one article review, published in the journal Nutrients, it was referenced that, "Inulin, oligofructose, and FOS have been extensively studied as prebiotics, and have been shown to significantly increase fecal bifidobacteria at fairly low levels of consumption (5–8 g per day)." It was also stated that "A 12-month study of 100 adolescents ingesting 8 g/day short- and long-chain inulin fructans showed a significant increase in calcium absorption that led to greater bone mineral density."
In another 2014 published study investigating the absorption of calcium and magnesium, it was recognized that "Scanning electron microscopy showed that fructans were able to mitigate bone loss" and "demonstrated that supplementation with agave fructans prevents bone loss and improves bone formation."
Of course the best sugars and sources of fructose come from whole fruits and vegetables. However, processed natural sugars, like agave, coconut sugar, coconut nectar and xylitol serve a purpose, to make foods and beverages more palatable and enjoyable to eat. Whether you choose to consume more or less of them in your life time is up to you.
While we promote a diet high in natural sugar content from whole food sources, occasional sweeteners, like high quality raw agave, consumed in moderation as part of a health promoting diet is not going to, we feel, cause significant adverse health effects.
Relatively speaking, sometimes these sugars act as healthier substitutes for more addictive, refined and artificial varieties.
Used in small amounts, natural sweeteners can be an flavorful way to enjoy certain foods and drinks. Although they are not required for health, they can satisfy a sweet tooth in a world filled with far more harmful and tempting options.
It is important to make suitable choices depending on your own personal health objectives. High quality, organic low-temperature processed agave may be one of these options, but may not necessarily be appropriate for all people in all circumstances.
Other viable substitutes may additionally include stevia, yacon root syrup and lakanto or monk fruit sweetener.
Agave syrups should be avoided in cases of candida overgrowth, IBS or leaky gut. Excessive intake may cause bloating and flatulence. It is best to consult your health care provider when using agave on a regular basis if you have type I or II diabetes.

President Obama, speaking at his campaign-turned advocacy group, contradicted media reports that his primary focus right now is setting up House Democrats to retake the majority in the 2014 midterms.
"It's not about 2014," Obama told Organizing for Action this evening, per the pool report. "I actually wanna govern, at least for a couple of years." He added that "If a senator or congressman from a swing district is about to take a tough vote on immigration or guns, they need to feel supported."
Rep. Steve Israel, D-N.Y., chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, explained that winning the House in 2014 is a high priority for Obama.
"After delivering his election victory speech in November, Obama walked off the Chicago stage and made two phone calls related to his political plans — one to Israel and one to Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), the last Democratic House speaker," The Washington Post wrote. "Israel said Obama told him 'how focused he would be on winning a House majority for the Democrats, many of whom complained that the president did not do enough during his first term to help members on the Hill."
Israel then met with Jim Messina, who managed Obama's reelection campaign and now leads OFA."The subject was the 2014 midterms," Israel told the Post.

28 October 1945, Nottingham, England, d. 8 February 2006, London, England. This fiery, self-taught saxophonist mainly played alto but sometimes used saxello. He had lessons on piano from four years old and on violin from the age of 11. He hated these and took up clarinet and tenor saxophone, picking up the techniques himself and playing in various trad bands as a semi-professional. He went to Germany with a soul band, Lester Square And The GTs, and then joined the Irish Crickets, a showband. Regular work and wages enabled him to return to England, where he formed his own group, the Soul Pushers. In 1967, he joined Bluesology, who were at the start of their association with Long John Baldry. It was here that he first played with Marc Charig, later a front-line partner in the Keith Tippett Sextet.

Being stick-thin is no longer a prerequisite for wearing great clothes. Whether you are plus-sized or petite, you can accentuate a curvaceous figure through fashion. By choosing the right fit and flattering items, you can flaunt your body's natural curves with style and confidence.
Sweater Dress
A sweater dress in a slimming material such as cashmere accentuates a curvaceous figure. Wear an oversized belt at the slimmest part of your waist to create an hourglass look. Avoid oversized bulky knits, which can look shapeless and make you appear larger. To create a sleeker look, wear a body shaper beneath the dress to smooth out any bulges.
Jacket and Pants
A properly fitting jacket paired with flat-front pants is a great outfit for curvy women. The jacket should have enough shape to accentuate the smallest part of your midsection, while the flat front pants minimize tummy bulges and balance out full hips to accentuate an hourglass figure. Make sure that the jacket is not too tight or too loose fitting. It should be able to button without pulling at the back or the bustline, but should also hug your curves closely enough that it does not look shapeless or boxy.
Trouser Jeans
Trouser jeans have a slight flare at the bottom, balancing out the body and creating a slimmer, curvy appearance. Wearing jeans that flare slightly or fall straight down from the hip are very flattering, especially if you have wide hips. Tapered leg jeans are not a good choice for most curvy women. They make your lower leg appear smaller, which in turn makes you appear bulkier around your hips, thighs and midsection.
Shapely Skirts
Paired with the right top, shapely skirts accentuate curves and balance out your body. Trumpet skirts, or those that fit closer around the hips and then flare at the bottom, balance full hips with fullness at the bottom of the skirt. Pencil skirts also look great on curvy women with the right fit. Wear a skirt with a high waist to hug you at the smallest part of your midsection to show off an hourglass shape. If you are pear-shaped and carry more weight at the bottom half of your body, wear a skirt with a lower waist and a slim-fitting, light colored top to draw attention to your slimmest part.

Why Drinking Beer Is Good For Your Health
One of those proverbs you see up on chalkboards in pubs says, 'If you don't drink, you don't live longer – it just seems longer.'
Actually, that's complete hogwash – beer helps you live longer.
And that's just one of the health benefits of this marvellous, fizzy tonic. Here's a few more (scientifically sound) reasons to pour yourself a beer RIGHT NOW.
Virginia Tech researchers found that regular, moderate beer drinkers were 19% less likely to die during a given time period than people who never touch a drop.
2) Drinking beer makes you thin
A new book, The Diet Myth by King's College London Professor Tim Spector, claims that everything we know about losing weight is wrong – and that drinking Belgian beer is actually good for your gut bacteria, which can aid efficient digestion.
An ingredient in beer can even help your body to fight cancer.
Xanthohumol – a flavonoid found in hops – is an antioxidant which inhibits cancer-causing enzymes.
4) Beer keeps your brain sharp
A study at UCL found there wasn't actually much scientific evidence behind the idea of beer giving drinkers the distinctive 'beer belly'.
The researchers wrote, 'There is a common notion that beer drinkers are, on average, more 'obese' than either non-drinkers or drinkers of wine or spirits.
'The association between beer and obesity, if it exists, is probably weak.
Never mind the fact that it's pretty unlikely that you'll drink 10 pints of skimmed milk, beer is LOW CAL.
Guinness released statistics showing that its heavy, dark brew is lower in calories than either OJ or skimmed milk.
Although they won't protect you against not being able to remember what happened last night.
A recent study found Xanthohumol, a compound in the hops used to flavour beer, is able to protect the brain from degenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.
'If you analysed beer you would be amazed at how many super-nutrients there are in it,' says Dr Stephan Domenig, medical director of the Mayr Health Centre in Austria.

A quarterly report on casino expansions, new recreational facilities and public projects that are among the hundreds of millions of dollars spent on development in southern New Jersey. Here's a look at some major projects.
Atlantic City
Atlantic City added more than $1 billion worth of new hotel development in 2008, but the recession and global credit crisis put the brakes on billions more. Here's a snapshot of what has been completed, what is under construction and what is still stuck on the drawing board.
In business (opened in 2008):
Waterfront Tower: Soaring 525 high, the 44-story hotel gave Harrah's Resort bragging rights to the tallest building in Atlantic City.
Water Club: Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa's 800-room boutique hotel brought ultra-luxe lodging to the Marina District.
Chairman Tower: The sleek, 40-story hotel tower represented a dramatic facelift for Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort.
The Chelsea: The first luxury noncasino hotel to open on the Atlantic City Boardwalk since the 1960s made a splashy debut.
Courtyard by Marriott: An old Quality Inn was completely gutted and transformed into a more upscale 206-room Marriott.
In theory: Pinnacle Entertainment: Development of a $1.5 billion to $2 billion casino project on the former site of the Sands Casino Hotel is on "indefinite hold."
MGM Mirage: The country's second-largest gaming company has postponed plans for a massive $5 billion casino and hotel complex until the sagging economy picks up.
Bader Field: Atlantic City waits for redevelopment proposals for the 140-acre former airport site.
Atlantic Beach Resort & Casino: A development group that includes hotelier Curtis Bashaw and former casino CEO Wally Barr has delayed its proposed $1.5 billion project.
Penn National Gaming: The company said Thursday, Feb. 5, it is scrapping plans to build a "Borgata-like" attraction on a 23-acre site along the Route 30 corridor.
Barnegat interchange: The new full interchange in Barnegat Township, which will add a southbound entrance onto and northbound exit off of the Garden State Parkway, is still about a year and a half away from completion. In the next month or two, motorists should expect traffic disruptions as lanes shift on West Bay Avenue while crews expand the bridge there and do work near the Lighthouse Drive intersection.
Route 52: Route 52 causeway leading into Ocean City is on schedule and under budget thanks to cooperative weather that has not impeded the marine construction. The state will solicit bids in February for stage 2 of the $400 million transportation project, which will include demolition of the two drawbridges. One southbound lane into Ocean City remains closed.
Expressway Exit 20: The $8.6 million project to build a full interchange at Route 50 and the Atlantic City Expressway in Hamilton Township is on schedule.
Contractors are now in the coordination stage, getting ready to bring in heavy equipment and start moving earth in a few weeks.
The South Jersey Transportation Authority, which operates the expressway, awarded the contracts in October, saying the work would be complete in 18 months.
The work involves creating new eastbound and westbound access ramps, building retaining walls to minimize the effects on nearby wetlands and installing traffic signals where the ramps meet Route 50, ramp lighting, roadway drainage, infiltration systems and landscaping.
Delilah Road still to come: The project to rebuild the intersection of Delilah Road with Route 30 is about 80 percent completed, said Erin Phalon, a spokeswoman for the state Department of Transportation.
The new bridges over the water mains, the railroad tracks and Route 30 are complete and crews are completing the approaches and parapets, Phalon said. Work on Route 30 continues as crews install medians and new drainage.
The project, which started Jan. 5, 2008, and was scheduled to take 15 months, replaces three substandard bridges that were built in the 1930s.
The road should reopen before Memorial Day, slightly ahead of schedule, Phalon said.
Commercial projects
Union Lake motels - Millville: Millville's Planning Board will vote on preliminary and final site plan approval for two hotels to be constructed in the city's north end.
Goodman Properties is expected, pending Planning Board approval, to sell between six and seven acres of land next to Route 55 and Delsea Drive, the main corridor connecting Vineland and Millville, to Latitude Hospitality Inc.
Latitude will build a Fairfield Inn and Suites and a TownPlace Suites. The hotels are expected to provide the city with 242 additional hotel rooms to the approximately 250 it has currently. No construction date has been set.
Four Corners project - Vineland: Developer Hans Lampart hopes to begin construction on the "Four Corners" redevelopment project in early spring.
Plans call for revamping all four corners of East and Landis avenues in downtown Vineland, which are currently dominated by the vacant Landis Theatre, a hotel used more commonly as permanent housing for low-income tenants and Sacred Heart High School. A fourth corner is fronted by a shop that was once a gas station that left some groundwater contamination. Some environmental cleanup may be required.
The high school is to be expanded, the theater renovated and the hotel and adjacent corner eventually replaced by senior housing and shops.
Lampart, who City Council named redeveloper in 2007, has yet to close on sales of each of the properties, but negotiations are ongoing.
Vineland Wal-Mart: Wal-Mart opened its store in Vineland on Jan. 21.
The store, which spans about 268,000 square feet on Landis Avenue near Delsea Drive, is expected to employ as many as 300 people, Vineland Director of Economic Development Jim Lelli said.
Wal-Mart invested $20 million in the project, which slowly plodded forth to completion this year.
Also, Capital Bank is expected to open its first branch right next to the store. The bank has the necessary city approvals to build.
Public projects
EHC High School: Cement slabs have been laid for Cedar Creek High School, the third high school of the Greater Egg Harbor Regional High School District, in Egg Harbor City. Steel beams are being delivered Tuesday to the 66-acre site at Duerer and Hamburg streets, district Superintendent Adam Pfeffer said. Construction of the $81.7 million school is expected to finish in the summer of 2010. The school would open that fall.
Cape May Convention Center: The city hired three engineering firms earlier this month to work with architect Kimmel-Bogrette on the new convention hall project.
Since voters approved the $10.5 million financing for the project in November, the city has been busy getting ready to apply for state permits. A CAFRA permit is needed to construct the new hall overlooking the ocean and to move the nearby city-owned Solarium to make room for the project.
The city is still hoping to demolish the old hall before the summer season and begin construction of the new hall before the end of the year. The goal is to open the new hall in 2010.
Buena Middle School: Construction of the new Buena Middle School is on schedule.
District Business Administrator Thomas Kearney said the walls of the school have been built and the roof attached. The school district believes it will keep its original completion date and open the school to children as early as January 2010.
The school will have 95,000 square feet of space accommodating 21 classrooms, science labs, small group instruction areas, a library media center, art, music, computer instructional areas, a gymnasium and auditorium in the one-story building.

|[code][repo] Integration of CWSs
|Tue, 06 Sep 2011 16:50:52 GMT
Hi, And now for something completely different: CODE As lined out in Message-ID: <email@example.com> http://email@example.com%3E there are 2 possible approaches to integrate pending CWSs and I favoured one of them. I've seen no response to that other than Pedro's, maybe my suggestion was buried too deep in that thread and people are too busy with fighting over forum and documentation governance. I'm tired of wading through those piles of mails wasting the project's time and efforts and putting people off. In the mean time -- I'm referring a time span of more than the last week that passed since my mail -- we could have had the CWSs integrated, identified copyright/license problematic bits of code, and maybe even found some solutions for copyleft code removal to get things going. I offered my help with the CWSs since the beginning, hoping that the code repository would had been there much earlier. Summer here was almost non-existing with weather conditions just right to keep me indoors, but now I will focus on other things, spare time life is short enough and can be enjoyed.. as for my part that means I'll enjoy staying away from computer keyboards for some time starting next week and have fun under the sun.

text: Culture 13 September 2007 Desperately seeking salvation Vegas's tour of US churches tells us more about his own quest for happiness <strong>Johnny Vegas' Sign up for our weekly email * I turned on Johnny Vegas's Guide to . . . Evangelical Christianity (11 September, 11.05pm) under the illusion that it was a guide for us, the audience. Not so. It really was Johnny Vegas's guide, as in: "Here you go, Johnny. We'll fly you to Nevada, let you loose in Las Vegas for a bit to emphasise just how sinful you are, and then abandon you to a lot of smiling born-agains with giant teeth, because we know that: a) you used to be quite keen on God and even joined a seminary and b) you are, as you acknowledge, miserable-bordering-on-depressed, you drink far too much and it makes you feel like shit, and you're desperate to change your life. "So, see what you make of it all, Johnny. If you fancy salvation, fantastic. Hello, Jesus! You can move to Colorado Springs, the so-called 'Evangelical Vatican', and attend a church the size of the Home Office three times a day for the rest of your life, cranberry juice all the way. If not, no worries: the beers are on Channel 4." You'll notice that the above is in speech marks. Four months into this job, and I'm adept at imagining the cynical pitches that producers make to commissioning editors and celebrity presenters alike. Or at least I think I am. Who knows? What I'm trying to say is that what the documentary lacked in facts, it made up for with wobbly close-ups of Vegas's kindly but monstrously swollen face, an approach that was moving, but also painful to watch. For all his sweetness, for all his bluster, it's clear that Vegas is slowly killing himself with fags and booze, and that he knows this, but is powerless to do much about it. Rather than baiting the born-agains, he genuinely hoped to find solace in their embrace, and you ached for him when, for a few brief hours, he did. But it was worse when, at the end of the film, he staggered around in the Nevada sun, pink and drunk and rambling. I didn't want Vegas to take up the guitar, become a homophobe and get himself a set of rodenty new porcelains; but nor do I want him to go on being unhappy and ill. What kind of a deal was this show offering? From my point of view, if not that of the good folk of Colorado Springs, he was damned if he did, and damned if he didn't. So what did we learn of the American evangelicals? The usual stuff: that their churches are vast and carpeted; that they think the Grand Canyon was made by God in a more than usually magisterial creative moment; that the way to avoid sleeping with your girlfriend before you get married to her is to remember, constantly, that she is a daughter of the Lord. And what of Vegas, a 36-year-old comedian and actor from St Helens? Though he often tied himself up in rhetorical knots, he was also insightful. He explained that his desire to be a priest (he joined a seminary twice, at 11 and at 24) was born of a need to please others, notably his father, a devout Catholic - a thought that stayed with me once he arrived in Colorado Springs, where new churches sprout like warts. The harder the people he met smiled at him - people like Terry MacAlmon, America's most famous touring "worship leader" - the more you sensed his desire to embrace their Lord, much as he might praise their pot pies or admire their gleaming SUVs. But there was more to it than that. After a chat with a pastor, Vegas announced: "That was life-changing, that!" I don't believe that he was only trying to make them happy. He was hoping for the slate to be wiped clean: to wake up the next day and have no need of tranquillising Guinness and daytime television. So when, soon afterwards, you saw him selecting kitsch religious gifts for his son (a model of Jesus skiing, anyone?) before his flight home, his laughter was not entirely convincing. I was relieved that he hadn't fallen for the pastor's spiel. But there are worse things than sophistry, aren't there?

Question On Black 50/50 Drape/swag
Decorating By STRAWBERRY1390 Updated 9 Jun 2009 , 1:41pm by bakingatthebeach
Hello fellow cakers,
I am doing a cake for this weekend and I have been killing myself with the drape. It is going to be a black drape and I know that I am going to use ready made satin ice black fondant, now my problem is the gumpaste part. I can't find black paste (i don't even think they make black paste) If i use white I have this feeling that it wil fade the black of the my fondant. What is the best way to go about this. Everytime I try to color something black it never NEVER happens I get all funky browns..lol.
Will just tinting the gumpaste as dark as i can get it help? Any and all advice is welcome and appreciated.
Wish me good luck and happy caking,
Just mix some tylose powder into your black fondant and PRESTO! Black gumpaste. Half a teaspoon per pound should do the trick.
THANK YOU!!! I never would have thought of that.
Its easy to color gumpaste black. The graduation cap on the grad cake in my pic is gumpaste, didnt have to use tons of color either.

Hi would you mind much in telling me how you got it so black. Which brand of color did you use and did you use many different colors first then add black, like I said in the original post I never get black. So any help is appreciated
I used wilton black. I just kept adding and massaging. You can also add a little cocoa powder to your gumpaste to make it brown then add the black and that helps.

NEW YORK -- It was no surprise that the U.S. Open crowd cheered on Maria Sharapova on Monday night.
But what was surprising is that many Russians also may have reveled in Sharapova's first-round victory over Elena Danilidou when they woke up Tuesday morning.
From Brooklyn to Beijing, Maria Sharapova doesn't lack fans these days. It's why companies including Canon, Motorola, Nike and Colgate-Palmolive have paid her millions of dollars to endorse their products worldwide.
But the acceptance of the 18-year-old as an icon is only a recent happening in her native land of Russia, where many in the general population seemed to resent her for her American upbringing, her full-time American residence and her unwillingness to play in the Kremlin Cup while she went hopping around to smaller tournaments in Europe and Asia.
"When she became No. 1 [last week], there was a tremendous amount of media coverage on her in Russia and most of it was overwhelmingly positive," said Alexei Tolkachev of Moscow's daily newspaper, Sport Express.
That's a big change from the tone of recent media coverage, even after Sharapova won last year's Wimbledon crown.
"She wasn't granting many interviews, but in Russia, there was resentment because they thought she wasn't interested in talking to the Russian media," Tolkachev said. "Once people started to understand that it wasn't about the country and that she wasn't doing many exclusive interviews, they realized that she wasn't trying to be standoffish and it wasn't as if she didn't care."
When she was 9 years old, Sharapova left Russia with her father without knowing a word of English and with almost no money to their names. They arrived, without invitation, at the famous Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy in Florida. Sharapova refined her talents there and turned pro on her 14th birthday.
"The perception was that she was trying to become more American because it was more marketable," Tolkachev said.
Although Tolkachev said Russian companies usually pay their sports stars "peanuts" compared to the endorsement deals obtained from multinational brands, the journalist said that "as a Russian, she can be appealing in countries that don't necessarily embrace American supremacy."
Although Sharapova lives in Florida and has all American friends, her agent Max Eisenbud said there has never been any attempt to "make her American."
"She's Russian because that's who she is," Eisenbud said. "Every time her name appears in the papers or on a draw sheet, there's an 'RUS' next to her name. That will never change."
Eisenbud said that he has been talking with companies based in Russia and his client would love to do a deal that would include a charity component so Sharapova could give back to her homeland.
Russia's embracing of Sharapova isn't all due to her becoming the first Russian woman to attain the world's No. 1 ranking. It also seems like she's trying harder than ever before to make Russia a priority. In May, she finally committed to playing in the Kremlin Cup, the first event she'll play in Russia.
When Sharapova steps on the court for the event that will take place in October, she at least says she cares about how she will be received.
"I've always been thinking about how they think of me in Russia," Sharapova said. "But I don't know what to expect. Hopefully, it's positive."

SOLON -- After his team won its postseason opener, Hudson head girls basketball coach Dennis Lawler reminded his players of the 1985 NCAA championship game.
The eighth-seeded Villanova Wildcats shocked the world when they upset top-seeded Georgetown 66-64.
Veteran Lady Explorers head coach Dennis Lawler knew his team needed a Villanova-like upset to knock off a very talented Solon team, which advanced to the state semifinals last season.
The Lady Explorers gave the might Lady Comets everything they had, but they simply did not have enough weapons to match Solon's plethora of athletes.
As a result, ninth-seeded Hudson's season came to a close after falling to the top-seeded Lady Comets 80-40 in a Euclid Division I sectional title game Feb. 23 on the road.
At one point, it was 10-9 when senior guard Ava Cristofoli knocked down a 3-pointer midway through the first quarter.
It was never that close again.
Solon, which had 10 players score at least one point, went on a 24-2 run to take complete control early in the second quarter.
Nonetheless, Lawler had nothing but praise for his team. Despite finishing 8-16 this season, Hudson's players never lost their enthusiasm and they kept their motors running at full force until the very end.
"The girls played their tails off," Lawler said. "The biggest compliment I can give them is they didn't play like their record. They played hard every game.
"That's a testament to the kids' effort and heart. I can't thank them enough for how hard they worked."
The Lady Comets (21-2) had a bevy of players hit shots during that spurt and they overwhelmed the Lady Explorers with their relentless, pressing, trapping defense that caused all kinds of turnovers.
"You have to give Solon credit," Lawler said. "They had some kids hit shots. We got off to a good start, but they got off to a good start, too."
If Hudson wasn't turning it over, it was making shots from long range.
The Lady Explorers made 10 3-pointers on the evening, including six in the first half.
Unfortunately, Hudson had its pockets picked 28 times.
"We tried to take our time against their press," Lawler said. "They wanted to speed us up. We needed to take care of the basketball."
The Lady Comets, which lost the ball 14 times, turned the game into a track meet and the Lady Explorers couldn't keep up.
Solon had a 48-25 advantage at halftime and never saw its lead get below 22 the rest of the way.
Senior guard Alexis Stover, who recently signed to continue her academic and basketball careers at Ohio University in Athens, led the Lady Comets with 16 points.
Senior guard Dee Bekelja, who plans to play at DePaul University in Chicago, had 12 points and junior point guard Gabby Mitchell added 11 points for Solon.
Sophomore guard Emma Messina buried three 3-pointers on her way to a team-high 16 points for the Lady Explorers.
Junior point guard Elizabeth Hinkle and freshman guard Audrey Kirkhope-Moss each had 8 points. Rounding out the scoring for Hudson were senior guard Ava Cristofoli (6) and junior forward Traci Wright (2).
Although the Lady Explorers, who haven't had a winning record since the 2012-13 season, had their struggles, Lawler enjoyed coming to the court every day.
"I had a great time with them," he said. "They are great kids who work hard. They were a joy to be around every second of every day. There was not a single day where I thought, 'Gosh, do I have to go to practice?"
Lawler said goodbye to Cristofoli and senior forwards Elle Marquez and Clementine Couvat.
"They gave their heart and soul to the program," he said. "I hope I gave them a learning experience to help them grow as women. The wins and losses matter, but in the long run, you want to make them better people."

Me and this guy have talked for like 3 months before and then stopped for like half a year. And then started talking again I spent every moment with him for a week as soon as I would wake up I would go see him and we would stay on my porch tell 4 am. I think I love him. Is it too early to love him
Most Helpful Girl
I don't think so. It sounds like you've liked him for a while. Somewhere in there you have revived the flame for him and feel you love him. I think you have been in love for 9 months already, it's not too early, it is a very healthy time to know you really like someone. Have fun. if you can sit and talk with him until 4am in the morning, in my opinion, nothing else matters.11|00|0

I tried to restore it but it could be that a blog is missing. Nothing personal, I just couldn't remember them all......
