There are some movies that compel us to think, while there are others which makes us emotionally involved and attached. Ship of Theseus does both – in the most effortless and poignant manner possible. Anand Gandhi presents us with the most appealing blend of artistic cinematography, intelligent dialogues, captivating music and gripping stories. For me, watching the movie was an emotional as well as intellectual experience.
Having won international acclaim, the movie is a fine testament of intelligent Indian cinema. The most incredible aspect of the film is the sheer ease with which the characters are built and the stories told. Simple, direct and moving! The film's title and theme draws its premise from the ancient Greek paradox that asks if every part of a ship is changed over time, whether the ship would remain the same? And if the replaced parts are used to make a new ship, will that be the original ship?
The movie talks of profound philosophies, of life and death, of ideologies and beliefs. But never does the movie try to preach or be sanctimonious. The film follows the lives of three very different people. As blind photographer, who struggles with her photography and art after gaining her eyesight back, Aida Elkashef is so convincing in her character that one can feel her restlessness. We feel for her, empathise with her but not once do we feel sorry for her and that's the victory of her character.
The second story revolves around a monk suffering from liver cirrhosis who is fighting for animal rights. Neeraj Kabi plays this role so deftly that he evokes thoughts and questions of morality in our minds while we watch him deny taking medication because of his ideologies and beliefs. His deteriorating condition doesn't come in way of his will power and he stands by his convictions even when his ailing body is giving up. The thought-provoking conversations with his young protégé are very entertaining and amusing. The simplicity of his ideas makes us wonder. The monk is assertive yet he never preaches his ideas. The sect he belongs to is a fictitious one (created for the film so as to avoid any kind of political or religious issues) and it is intrinsically designed to appeal to our reason than to sentiment.
The third story is of a money minded stockbroker who believes being motivated to earn money doesn't make one a lesser mortal. All one needs in life is respect and a little compassion for people around. His unusual journey to a foreign land just to get justice for a fellow human being makes us discover a hero in the common man. He isn't successful in his motives but he tries his best. That's the whole point of a life, as his activist and driven grand mom tells him, "This is as good as it gets." The stockbroker's character is a complex in a very endearing way. His idea of living is simple and he has no high morals or a sense of duty towards society, unlike his grandmother. However, he does have the moral fabric of a compassionate human being which makes us bow down to him.
All these characters are so real that they seem surreal, filling us with a sense of respect and love for them. They are all cleverly united in the end, with a climax that we never see coming as we're too engrossed in the narrative. But when we ponder, it was quite an obvious and perfect ending with all these three lives intertwined. Taking all of us along in a voyage, the director explores the ideas of identity, justice, morals, life and death. Ship of Theseus certainly strikes a chord in our heart with its beautiful imagery. A film that stirs the soul and incites us to reflect upon our lives. A film not to be missed!

Hollow and sunken eyes after rhino? Short nose? Is it possible to fix it? (Photo)
Doctor Answers 1
Hollow and sunken eyes after rhino? Short nose? Is it possible to fix it? (Photo)
Those are very good questions. From your pictures I do see what you mean, although I cannot see why a rhinoplasty could have that affect. My first question is when the before pictures you have were taken. Has there been a span of years in between the photos or have you lost weight? If you feel there is a change , it would not likely be a result of your rhinoplasty, even with lateral osteotomies the eyes don't change. Other considerations are if others in your family have similarly deep set eyes then genetics may have a roll. I hope that helps!

The post Stop the Weight Loss Lies! appeared first on Florida Fitness Coaches.]]>
When you jump on these crazy fads like juicing every day, drinking 90% of your calories in "meal replacers", or some ridiculous 7day/week high intensity training program, you are putting your body at serious risk. You can deprive your body of crucial nutrients AND risk injury with over-training. To top that off, your energy will plummet and you'll probably feel like a zombie those entire 30 days. Sure you may lose some pretty serious pounds (probably not 30), but you and I both know you can't (and shouldn't) continue to live like that.
This is where the trouble REALLY starts. As soon as you go back to "real life" after one of these "magic results" plans, you'll put ALL of the weight back on you suffered those entire 30 days to lose (possibly even a little more). Plus you set yourself up for a longer, harder road next time! So REALLY what these headlines should read is…
"Feel like crap, Lose 30 Pounds, Put it ALL back on, and Have to Work Twice as Hard Next Time!"
… Not quite as catchy huh?
So let's talk SUSTAINABLE weight-loss. What IS realistic?
For the average personal trying to lose weight, a solid, realistic goal to aim for is 1-2 pounds per week. Those who are just starting and are working towards extreme weight loss may see numbers as high as 3 pounds in a week for a while, but eventually this will slow down (which is totally OK!).
More importantly, the goal should be to implement a routine (with nutrition AND exercise) that you can sustain easily even AFTER you've lost the weight. While nutrition is always #1, and plans generally have to be customized, a sustainable workout routine would be something like:
You shouldn't feel miserable, deprived, or hurting all the time either! Sure it's OK to be sore, but after the initial couple weeks your energy should IMPROVE. If not, then adjustments need to be made!
More importantly, as long as you stick with the right plan, you WILL steadily drop the weight, KEEP it off, and finally be able to throw away your "fat jeans" for good!
So do me (and yourself) a favor, don't fall for the gimmicks, fads, and programs that seem too good to be true, because they ARE!
P.S. This summer we're offering a 30-day trial at the club that sets you up with exactly this. It includes all of the training, nutrition plan, and accountability you need to set yourself up for successful weight loss WITHOUT have to suffer!

How do you feel sitting at your desk in the morning? Back aches? Knees sore? Neck tight? Tension headache coming on?
What if I told you that you could not only decrease your stress, but also drastically help the way you FEEL in the mornings just by implementing a simple 5-10 minute corrective/stretching routine?
Check out this video with 8 simple exercises and stretches I've put together for you to help you to improve your posture, activate your core, relax your tight achy muscles, and CRUSH your morning!
This entire routine can be done at home and with no equipment necessary!
Check below to view a video demonstration of my "10 Minute Stretch for Success"! Below the video you will find details of how many repetitions I would recommend for each exercise as well!
1) Runner's Lunges on each leg (8 reps each side)
2) Double leg bridge with 3 second pause (10 reps)
3) Bird dogs (4 reps each side with a 4 second pause)
4) Bent over thoracic spine rotations (5 reps each side)
5) Doorway Slides (10 reps)
6) Toe Touch Squat to Stand (5 reps)
7) Alternating leg cradles (5 reps each side)
8) 2-way neck stretch (20 second hold each position)
*The KEY to maximizing the efficiency of this routine is to TAKE YOUR TIME …AND BREATHE!!* Focus on taking slow, deep, meaningful breaths while you go through each exercise. This will not only allow for you to achieve a deeper stretch, but also work WONDERS in getting your mind focused and ready to take on your day!
The second piece is that you have to be CONSISTENT. Do this EVERY day, not just on the days you wake up sore or achy. And please don't tell me you don't have 10 minutes.

The post I eat brownies too! appeared first on Florida Fitness Coaches.]]>
I grew up in the south, land of the casseroles and mashed potatoes. I also grew up with 2 grandmothers who could bake circles around anybody else I know. That meant home-made bread, cookies, pies, cakes, and brownies were ABUDANT, and I was definitely guilty of going back for "seconds" when it came to desserts. Basically, I blame them for my love of all things sweet.
To this day, I do still have a very strong "sweet tooth". However, I (just like everyone else), have to make a choice. You make this choice as soon as you walk in to the grocery store. We choose to keep our kitchen "crap food free". You won't find cookies/brownies/chips/ candy or cakes in my house. Why? Because I'm human, and if it's there I'll eat it! Self-discipline can only take you so far. It's WAY easier to say no one time to a thousand calorie dessert or extra glass of wine at a restaurant than when it's staring you in the face every time you open the pantry or refrigerator!
BUT, sometimes I WILL eat dessert (brownies will always be my guilty pleasure ), and that's OK too! When you're "maintaining" we say stick with the 80/20 rule. This means that 80% of the time you are COMPELTELY on compliant with your nutrition plan (NO cheating, no scribbling outside the lines), and the other 20% of the time you can "live a little". For fat loss you have to crack down a bit, 90/10 is where you have to be and this is a STRICT 90%.
**A simple way to look at this would be if you ate 21 meals/week (3 meals/day), 10% of the time (2 meals) you would be allowed a little "cheat". So, after a full week of crushing your nutrition plan maybe Friday you have a glass of wine, and Saturday you eat a small bowl of ice cream for dessert. JUST DON'T GO OVERBOARD!**
There you go, you heard it straight from a trainer. We eat dessert too, just like you!

The post Fat Loss vs. Weight Loss: Does the Scale Tell the Truth? appeared first on Florida Fitness Coaches.]]>
The first thing we need to ask is, how did this happen? And more importantly, how do we fix it? There are many factors that have contributed to this, more than can be covered in one blog. But for our purposes, let's focus on what I consider the main issue.
The first mistake people make when trying to lose weight is strictly focusing on the scale. This is the main reason why diets fail 98% of the time. That means people that lose weight on a diet alone almost always gain it back, and in most cases even more than when they started. That is sad!
The problem with diets is that they focus strictly on the scale. If you are losing weight regardless if it is muscle or fat it doesn't matter, and that is where they set everyone up for failure. Using round numbers, if you lose 50% fat and 50% muscle the scale will absolutely go down, but in most cases you don't look any different. You simply become a smaller fatter version of yourself.
The second problem with this approach is that when you lose muscle you burn less calories, which in turn makes it easier for you to store fat on fewer calories. Simply put, you eat less and still get fat. Ummm…that sucks.
Let me also add that when people go on a diet and add cardio (a lot of it) as their only means of exercise, they lose weight and eventually the exact same thing happens. Why? Cardio is catabolic in nature, meaning it "breaks down" as opposed to builds up. Don't get me wrong there are many benefits to cardio, and it should be part of one's program, but not the only mode of exercise.
If you have read any of our blogs, newsletters or listened to our podcast you know that we are huge fans of strength training.
If you want lose fat, fit into your bathing suit, or drop a dress or pant size you need to focus on losing fat and maintaining as much muscle as possible. This is accomplished by:
When you do it this way the scale will go down at a much slower rate, but you will look and feel better. In all my years of doing this, my biggest success stories (before/after pictures) are the ones who lost the least weight looked their best, because they maintained or put on the most muscle.
This is where the scale sucks for measuring progress. If you lose 5 pounds of fat but put on 3 pounds of muscle, the scale only goes down 2 pounds. Psychologically this crushes people when their only focus is the scale. I have seen people who look awesome, but are pissed when the scale doesn't go down.
There are many ways to measure progress, such as how your clothes fit, body fat, before/after pictures, and lastly yes the scale.
I promise you if you took a before picture, put it away for 6 months and committed to being on the plan I have outlined, the changes would be stunning regardless of what the scale says.
Losing weight/fat is not just about a 6-week program, it's about committing to a new way of life centered on eating right and working out for the long haul. If that bothers you it's ok, just accept being fat, unhealthy and on medications that make you feel like crap.
OR, you could make the changes and feel great. It's a simple choice. I won't lie, in the beginning it IS easier to get that Frappuccino and binge Netflix every night. But once you start to actually feel what it is like to feel great, as opposed to just feeling less crappy, you won't go back.

The post Nutrition Myths and Secrets Part 2 appeared first on Florida Fitness Coaches.]]>
Once you have cleaned up your diet and are eating less junk you can start to get more specific on macronutrients (carbs, protein, fats) and calories.
This is where the bio-individuality of things comes into play. You need to find what works for you. For instance, some people do well eating a decent amount of carbs, where as some people blow up on a moderate amount.
The best place to start is to find out exactly what you are currently doing. Log your food for 3-5 days on Myfitness pal or any logging software that will give you a breakdown of how many calories, carbs, fats and protein you are eating on a daily basis.
Once you know exactly where you are at you can make an adjustment to see how your body responds. For example if you are currently eating 65% carbs, 15% protein and 20% fat, you can change those percentages and see how you respond. Drop your carbs to 50% and increase your protein 10%. Sometimes a simple shift like this will make all the difference, while some people need a more drastic adjustment.
Generally speaking, the leaner you are the more carbs you can eat, and the more weight/fat you have to lose the less you can get away with. This is a "general" statement, meaning some people are genetic freaks and can get away with eating a ton of carbs and not gain weight, but you need to find out how you respond best.
If you have 20 or more pounds to lose trying a 40/30/30 approach is a good place to start. On a 1500 calorie meal plan that would look like 150 grams of carbs, 112.5 grams of protein, and 50 grams of fat. Those numbers won't be perfect, but be in the ballpark and you will be fine.
If you commit to this using the 90/10 rule you will know pretty quickly if you are on the right path. If it's not working you can make some other adjustments with your macros and calories.
A important note to keep in mind when trying a new plan; you have to be CONSISTENT! If you're not consistent you will never know if it is working or not. Don't be like most who do a half ass job and then blame the diet or claim they just can't lose weight.
Please let us know if you have any questions!

You want to be ripped? You want to look great naked? You want to look great in that bikini? If the answer is yes, start with your nutrition plan first!
Most people don't start here, or if they do it's some extreme caloric deficit or some ridiculous fad diet that some Instagram model is selling online. As a side note, the Instagram models that are selling diets don't write them!
The first thing we need to cover is 3 reasons to concern your self with nutrition:
Most people miss the point regarding nutrition, ignoring the above 3 points and simply treat their body like a dumpster fire. Then they wonder why they are sick and fat?
The next thing we need to come to an agreement on is that there is simply not a "one size fits all" approach to nutrition. In all my years of studying nutrition and implementing various strategies on myself and countless clients, I have come to a single conclusion that always rings true; while there are certain principles that everybody must adhere to, what works for me might not work for you. We simply have to find the right plan through trial and error. The good news is that with a few simple questions we can usually get the right plan without wasting time with numerous errors along the way.
The first place to start in my opinion is food quality. I used to go right to amount (in other words counting calories). This works and it's why I recommended this approach in the past. However, the problem with counting calories is that it is a short term solution if you don't make other changes as well.
Food quality doesn't mean turn into a food Nazi, but it does mean stop eating crap. Yes, that means your Frappuccino breakfast of champions has to go! And if you think a bowl of cereal is good for you, then this is going to be a challenge.
Eating clean is the easiest and hardest place to start at the same time. It's simple in that you stop eating processed foods, fast food, etc., but it's hard if you are used to all that type of food. It's an adjustment for sure.
I don't think people get how crucial this is until something bad happens. Just about every health issue (heart disease, cancer, diabetes, etc.) can be traced back to eating crap. These are facts, yet people ignore them to their own peril. Why? I am not totally sure, but for some people they have no other joy in their lives other than eating crap. For others, they just have no idea what eating healthy looks like. Unfortunately, we are at an all time high of extremes, you either eat clean or eat crap, no in between – no balance. If you're healthy and at your ideal body composition then you can follow an 80/20 rule (consume healthy/appropriate foods 80% of your meals, and leave "cheats" to only 20%), and you will be fine. If you want to improve body composition it needs to go to 90/10 until you get there. This is not that hard, but you have to start (and be honest)!
To clean up your diet start slow. Add more vegetables into your diet, and take out boxed processed food and fast food. There is no shortage of clean eating recipes on the internet. Eliminate liquid calories and replace with water. These are simple things to do that will have a huge impact on your health and body composition.
Don't be like the majority of people and just read this and go back to eating exactly how you do now. If you are thinking to yourself "I eat healthy", but are overweight, guess what – you don't eat healthy. Take an honest assessment, get real with yourself and make a positive change today!
I will lay out more specifics in part 2 (stay tuned!).

The post Do You Want Fast or Slow Results appeared first on Florida Fitness Coaches.]]>
The slow way is to implement small changes daily and make sure they stick. There is nothing wrong with this approach, and I have used it quite effectively with clients over the years.
The fast way is by doing what I call "Immersion". This means going all in full throttle and not looking back. There is a secret for this to work. You need a solid DAILY support system.
It's important to understand that losing fat and feeling great takes more than just showing up to the gym 3x per week or going on a diet. This is where people really miss the point. If you truly want to transform it takes daily effort making sure the big things (working out, eating right), and the little things (moving, supportive habits) get done day in and day out.
Let me give you an example of each so you can see how big a difference there is between the 2 approaches.
An example of the slow way would be taking 1-2 things and making sure they stick. So let's say drinking 70 ounces of water and getting 10,000 steps per day are 2 habits you are going to implement. These are 2 GREAT habits that will help you lose weight and get healthy. Once you have nailed these for 14-30 days, you would then add something else in like nutrition or working out. Over time this will absolutely get you results, but it will take you anywhere from 3-6 months to see significant improvements.
The fast way to fat loss and success will get you dramatic results in 6 weeks or less. This program involves a complete and immediate overhaul of your nutrition, strength training, metabolic conditioning, mobility work, AND mindset. However, the key to this program's success is DAILY support and accountability throughout the ENTIRE 6 weeks. For example, you would work IN THE GYM with a coach 6 days per week. Now don't panic, this is not an insanity workout program where you beat the crap out of yourself in the gym. That is not the point AT ALL.
BUT, when you get in the habit of strength training and doing metabolic resistance training on a daily basis 2 things happen:
We also combine your physical training with High Performance coaching and nutrition coaching to make sure you're getting the fastest results possible.
So what exactly IS High Performance coaching and nutrition coaching?
There is a lot that goes into High performance coaching, but in a nutshell it is setting up a framework of goal setting, positive daily habits, the right mindset training, and much more. This is then combined with daily accountability to make all of that happen.
Nutrition coaching is finding out exactly what YOU need to lose fat, feel great and have tons of energy. This includes finding the right calories, macro-nutrients (proteins, Fats, carbs), portions, and types of food that will get you there. Once this is set a daily plan is created that's easy to follow.
When you get daily coaching in all areas of fitness, nutrition, mindset, and habits YOU CAN'T LOSE.
This is why we call it "Immersion". You are supported constantly with DAILY email tips and DAILY text accountability to make sure it's easy for you to stay on track.
So in short, the "fast way" looks like this:
-3 days of strength training
-2 days of individual metabolic conditioning combined with specific mobility work
-1 day of HIIT (high intensity interval training)
-1 weekly high performance coaching session (nutrition and lifestyle)
-Daily accountability text
-Daily email tip
-Unlimited email support
A coach supports all of the above. The proper program combined with unlimited coaching sets you up for the fastest way to fat loss and performance.
Either way will work if you commit to the process, but the immersion version is the fastest way to results and also the easiest to stick with. After six weeks of immersion training it is MUCH easier to make all your progress stick.

The post 5 Things to Stop Doing to Get Lean appeared first on Florida Fitness Coaches.]]>
The good news is, there are some things you should STOP doing to get results fast. Let's take a look at the 5 things you need to stop doing to get in amazing shape.
Most people lie to themselves or justify that they "eat good". If you have weight to lose and have not been seeing results in the past 30-90 days, you need to stop lying to yourself and fix your nutrition. Without a doubt nutrition is the first place you need to look if you want to get lean.
I am not getting to specifics of any plan. I don't care if you're following paleo, low carb, counting calories, eating clean, whatever… Are you doing it consistently day in and day out? Most people will eat one day on target, the next they will eat a whole cake, eat clean again, then hammer a happy hour, and wonder why they didn't lose weight at the end of the week.
Nutrition is simple. Eat whole foods, the right macros for your body (carbs, protein, fats), burn more than you take in and do it day in and day out! That's it.
This one still amazes me. Even after all the research out there that has said long bouts of cardio are the least effective for fat loss and getting lean, people are still killing themselves in spin classes or running. Now if you do it because you really love endurance activities, fine, but if you're body composition sucks don't cry about it, or think more running and spinning is going to fix it. News Flash: It's making you fatter.
There are a few genetic freaks that do lots of cardio and look good. Keep in mind they are the exception to the rule or the outliers. A few others look lean but are actually "skinny fat" with zero muscle tone.
Am I saying all cardio is bad and you should stop it altogether? No! I am just saying it's not the answer to getting lean and you shouldn't over do it.
Now the term "heavy" is relative to the individual. If you are lifting weights and you are using a weight in which you could do endless amounts of reps, you will not get much benefit in the long run. For an absolute beginner who is deconditioned, they will get results in the begging from doing anything. However, after you have been working with weights for a decent amount of time, if you are not trying to get stronger it will become a waste of time in your effort to get lean.
The more muscle you have the more fat you burn and the leaner you get. The only way to do that is by overloading the muscle. When pushing the body to move more weight it has to compensate by getting stronger and build more muscle. When that happens it's the quickest way to getting lean.
This is a big one, and it amazes me that most people don't track their progress or follow a plan. Let's tackle a plan first. If you are going on a road trip to someplace you have never been before you would obviously use a map or some GPS device, which is the same thing as a map. In other words, you wouldn't just start driving north and hope you get where you want to go.
It is no different when it comes to working out to get lean. You should be asking yourself "what is the most effective plan I should follow to get in shape?". The mistake people make is say I am "working out". Do you know how many people go to the gym to "workout" and are in worse shape a year later than when they started? A Lot!
Next, if you get on a plan how do you know if that it's working? Simple, track your progress. Write it down! Write down what you are eating on a daily basis AND your workouts.
If you are not recording your workouts how do you know if you are getting better/stronger? You don't. When you do this it allows you to make the necessary adjustments depending on your progress.
This is interesting because unfortunately it seems as if we are living in a time of extremes. Either a person does nothing physical and eats like crap, or they turn into a workout nut doing it twice a day. This really goes back to #4, have a plan and follow it. The right plan will have a set amount of "on" days and work in proper rest.
Many times we see people beating the crap out of themselves 7 days a week. The mentality of "more is better" kicks in, but in this case is detrimental. What people don't realize is the body needs adequate rest to function optimally to burn fat and build muscle, but if it is constantly being pushed it will turn on its defense mechanisms to hang on to fat or cause other issues.
There is no reason to work out 7 days per week. Training 4 days per week with active rest is more than enough for the average person to get results.
So there it is, 5 things to stop doing to look amazing! Getting in shape isn't that complicated, but many people make it harder than it should be.
If you want to look your best, get on the right plan for you and be consistent!
Good Luck!

The post The Fundamentals of Success appeared first on Florida Fitness Coaches.]]>
I remember thinking yeah that's great but I just want to shoot the ball in the basket or hit the ball for a hit. But once I got bought into the process of practicing the fundamentals everything else fell into place. Instead of trying to do some fancy backhanded play at short stop or some funky layup I stuck with basics and made the play or shot. But when I tried to get "fancy" is when I screwed things up.
This analogy can be compared to our health and fitness plans. Are you doing the fundamentals? Most people want the big sexy workout or new sexy diet. The funny thing is that they haven't even stuck to a simple plan yet.
Are you drinking ½ your bodyweight in ounces of water? Are you taking a multi vitamin and fish oil every day? No? Then why are we talking about a new diet? If you can't do those 2 simple things every day you are wasting your time with everything else. The same goes for working out but on a different level for me. For me the question is do you move every day? What I mean here is do you at least go for a 10 minute walk daily or stand at your desk instead of sit for 10 hours? I always laugh when someone commits to working out 3 days per week for an hour but literally does not move for the other 4 days.
These are the fundamentals. If you can't nail down these simple habits you are wasting your time with everything else. Don't talk to me about what "diet" you should be on, drink 80 ounces of water 7 days a week for a month and we will talk. Make sure you get activity every day and then talk to me about what your workout should be.
This is one of the reasons people fail on new diets and workout programs. They try and tackle the more advanced part of what it takes without a sold base of the fundamental habits to make it easier to fit in the new program.
This is what leads to what I call shiny object syndrome. Someone who does not have the fundaments down and they start a fitness program and get no results because they don't do the little things that lead to success. From here they go to the next hottest "workout or nutrition" program and fail again.

Wow an entire month?
If I practice something new for an entire month do I expect to a be a pro? No, I don't but for some reason when it comes to fat loss doing something for a month means I should lose 20 pounds.
There are a couple things to cover here:
1. Exercise is not best for fat loss
2. I don't care what it is but anything new for one month doesn't solve anything in life
Dan John said this a long time ago about fat loss and I think he nailed it, if you want to lose fat and get in shape you have to attack it for 30 days like your life depended on it.
Fat loss is not easy, it's simple but not easy.
Fat loss starts with nutrtion. What is right for you? Low calorie?Paleo?Vegan?
If you want to lose fat it takes a commitment to eating healthy 90% of the time and moving your ass.
Here is the formula:
1. Proper nutrition
2. Strength Training
3. Metabolic work
4. Daily moving
Simple, right? Most people believe it or not have no problem with 2-4 but #1 is a problem.
There are many reason but a few are, social events, addicted to sugar, lack of knowledge, etc.
I think it starts with not knowing what is right for you and recognizing what you are doing is not working. Some people will not admit that.
If you could eat food that made you feel good, lose weight, and enjoy life would you do it? Of course you would.
I am here to tell you it's possible.

A remote control for dogs has been designed
A television remote for dogs has been designed.
The new appliance has been developed by pet food creator Wagg and University of Central Lancashire experts, which will see the canines flick over the channel and pause a show to play fetch, although the tool has yet to go into full production.
Speaking to the Sunday People, which has been reported on the Mirror Online, about the world's first dog remote, researcher Ilyena Hirskyi-Douglas said: "Our studies shows the average dog now watches more than nine hours of TV a week, showing technology is already playing a huge part in our pets' lives."
The device has been made from durable waterproof plastic to withstand the wear and tear of your pet pooches muddy paws, dribbling, and gnawing at the control, whilst large buttons provide a big surface area for them to easily switch between their favourite programmes.
Although there are growing fears people's pooches will become lazy, more authoritative and high maintenance, spokesperson Dan Reeves is more hopeful about the project.
He said: "We know that people can feel a little guilty about leaving their dogs in a room alone.
"We wanted to create something that would keep the dog entertained and reassure owners of their well-being."

Jaybee Sebastian Titestigo na! Pero Kay Pres Duterte lng siya makikipag Usap
Jaybee Sebastian will speak about his knowledge of the drug trade inside the New Bilibid Prison only with President Rodrigo Duterte, his lawyer said on Wednesday, hours after the high-profile inmate was hurt in a riot inside the prison compound.
In a live interview on GMA News TV's QRT, Sebastian's lawyer Edgar Arriba said the incident showed that there was a clear and present danger to the inmate's life.
"Napakarami niyang alam," said Arriba. "Ayaw niyang magsalita dahil lalong manganganib ang buhay niya."
Arriba said Sebastian told him: "Magsasalita lang ako sa presidente."
Sebastian was the most prominent name that surfaced in last week's House of Representatives hearing on the illegal drug trade inside the national penitentiary, with fellow inmates linking him to Senator Leila De Lima. Duterte has tagged De Lima for allowing narcotics to proliferate inside the NBP while she was justice secretary.

Well made knife and sharp. Doesn't work good for using on a cutting...
Well made knife and sharp. Doesn't work good for using on a cutting board, it's too flat. Go to knife for most other work.
Boner knife
I like the flexibility of the knife, and the handle is just right on the grip.
Sous Chef Hyatt Regency
The knife is well said on the discreption. And I like it when i sharpened it I can see that it will last a long time.

Quality at a great price
Great Knife. Handle provides a nice smooth grip that feels good in your hand. The blade is semi flexible letting you get right next to the bone and get into tight spots while still feeling precise and controllable. The knife comes out of the package with a really sharp edge so be careful. I like the full tang and German steel at prices more than half off what I have paid for lesser knives at local big box stores. Buy with confidence.

It's funny when you become a blogger who hardly blogs. Are you even considered a blogger anymore? I'm literally starting to wonder how to answer people when they ask "what do you do?" Is it okay to say "Well, I spend most of my day on Facebook, sometimes I'm on Instagram and every once in a while I write a blog post". I remember the days when I was a 5 posts a week type of girl. It's funny how that took place when I worked 40 hours outside of the home. Now I'm home nearly all of the time and I can't get my crap together enough to publish more than 2 posts a week. I'm not sure if that means I'm spending too much time in front of the refrigerator or what, but I need to try to get my act together. Spoiler: probably not happening.
There we were [and by "we" I mean me and this girl] singing along to Florida Georgia Line as they did their thing and then all of a sudden, 5 boys appear on stage belting out "BACKSTREETS BACK ALRIGHT!" So yeah, that was fun. Because we needed more excitement they threw Jake Owen [gosh I love that man in all of his barefoot glory] and Nelly out on stage too. It was hands down one of the better concerts of my life.
2. Speaking of concerts, my time in Nashville/Franklin was less than 24 hours but have no fear – I managed to not just pee my pants in that time but also shop at the cutest place ever [where's my Factory at Franklin lovers at], eat at Pieology, hang out on the most amazing screened in porch ever and so much more.
3. Unfortunately as they say – all good things must come to an end so we had to say peace out to Tennessee after very little sleep, hop in the car and road trip it down to Atlanta.
If it appears that we parked our car on the side of a road with semis flying by at rapid speeds, had to run in stones and weeds [while wearing these shoes] just to get to the sign to snap a quick photo than you would be right. Back in the car we went and were welcomed to Atlanta with the world's worst traffic ever. Seriously though. It took 39 minutes to go 4 miles or something ridiculous like that. HOW DO YOU GEORGIA FOLK DO IT?
4. Saturday was the main event of the weekend – Create + Cultivate. I am becoming mildly obsessed with attending conferences for women entrepreneurs, especially in the online space. It is SO much fun to connect with like-minded women, meet those who you have admired for awhile [looking at you Belong Mag and Evy's Tree], learn from those who are doing it and doing it well [and by doing it I'm not talking about in the bedroom but more so pursuing their goals and dreams, but you know – whatever works], and coming home feeling motivated and inspired with a few new nuggets of wisdom to put into practice. I think the thing that stuck with me the most from what somebody said [it'd be cool if I could remember who] was that if you aren't willing to give something 5 years, don't give it 5 minutes. It's a piece of advice that I could totally afford to hear so if you're in the same boat, well there you go!
5. The rest of the time was spent eating Mexican food [because duh], putting on charcoal face masks in the hotel room [I just tried this one and loved it! totally ordered for myself along with this cleansing balm], playing dress up, shopping at the coolest place on earth [visit Ponce City Market if you are in the Atlanta area!] and doing whatever else our hearts pleased for the 48 hours that we were there!
ps. fall is KILLING it right now in Indiana….

The Path of Destruction....
The sherman's march was a path of destruction. On his path to Atlanta, anything that got in his way was slashed and burned down. He was going to Atlanta to obtain a victory.
My opinion is that richard did the right thing because we all know that in order to win, you have to fight hard. Thats what he did, he took no mercy. He did the right thing because he wanted to stand out. He wanted the people to know that he was not playing about obtaining that victory.
Another total warfare was WW1. WW1 killed over 9 million soldiers in total. In World War 1, there was a total of 9 countries that affected the war. Including Germany, Austria-Hungary Ottoman Empire, Great Britain, United States, France Russia, Italy, and Japan. During The war there was a massive trench warfare. Over the years, Technology is what made the war so deadly. Missiles and tanks destroyed the trenches that were dug by the soldiers. That then ended the defense army of the colonies.

Did you catch the cover reveal today through social media? Thanks to some amazing people, friends and fellow authors, the cover reveal was a HUGE success!
A chance encounter around the world led her to him…
Abby Masters knew it was time to move on and start her life on her own. No one was in her way, no one could stop her. Leaving her past behind was the best way to move forward.
Deciding to travel around the world, the intent was to clear her mind, to find herself and to start over. What she didn't expect, what she didn't see coming, was Clive.

I like to see the world. Literally and figuratively. 4/7 continents so far. Been all over Asia, been taking Europe one country at a time, travelled all over the US (except Mt Rushmore and the Grand Canyon), and explored Morocco in Africa.
For the past few months, I've been running a big D&D group on Saturdays. It's hella fun.
My go-to phrases are "Oh my Buddha" and "son of a Joe" (I'm Joe). It's not fair to pick just one deity or curse someone's mama when you don't know them (I know myself, so I feel just fine cursing myself/any male offspring of mine out).
This describes me extremely well...
I was once asked what was my personal brand. A word or phrase or image that represents me. I drew the symbol of Superman.
I'm the guy you call to lift a couch...by himself up your three flights of stairs.
My sister describes me as a "Californian Surfer Dude" who has never learned to surf. It's a shame, I think it would be fun.
My favorite is Gattaca. It demonstrates that we can rise above our so-called potential to achieve something more than us. Movies that I always keep stashed on an accessible harddrive though are: Better Off Dead, The Princess Bride, Stranger Than Fiction, Garden State, Pirate Radio, Eurotrip, Moonrise Fiefdom, well, there are others but I think you get the picture.
I listen to Punk, Indie, Alternative, a little Metal, R&B, Pop, etc. Top 5 (High Fidelity style): The Academy Is..., A Day to Remember, Silverstein, Forever the Sickest Kids, Hit The Lights. Guilty Sixth: Taylor Swift
I've read more books than you a fact that we could argue for hours I'm sure, but nowadays I mostly read sci-fi and fantasy books.
My favorite book by far is The Count of Monte Cristo, but I will also give props to Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell.
The book I am most proud of owning: A signed copy of The Fault in Our Stars
Favorite Fantasy Book/Series: Tie between The Gentlemen Bastard Series by Scott Lynch and The Kingkiller Chronicles by Patrick Rothfuss (thankfully both are still being written)
Favorite Sci-Fi Book/Series: The Moon is a Harsh Mistress
Favorite Guilty Pleasure Reading: Percy Jackson/Heroes of Olympus Series by Rick Riordan (I love mythology)
As for TV, I like comedies. New Girl, WestWorld, Game of Thrones(Team Snow), Modern Family, anything that will make me laugh mostly.
As for what food I like to eat, I'll eat anything trust me on that. Worst thing I've ever eaten has been fish eyeballs, an experience I don't want to repeat. Remind me to tell you about the first time I had chicken's feet though, it's a decent story.
Beer: IPA, Stout, Saison, Hefeweizen, Tripel drinker. I dig Chimay, anything brewed by Three Floyds, Lagunitas, Russian River, Terrapin, and Old Rasputin
Do people on here really pose naked in their beds so they can attract attention?
If humanity will self-implode before we reach other stars. Has that been the fate of other alien civilizations to die out before reaching their full potential? Or is there hope we can one day meet others among the stars?
If you brought me a six pack of beer, a deli sandwich, and a super hero movie you could probably get into my pants...
(I wonder which of those two should be the more private thing?)
Wants to be the big spoon sometimes.
Likes sci-fi books or movies
Not afraid to eat a whole pizza with me (I'll do the heavy lifting here)
Can laugh about anything from funny faces to making fun of each other
Has a sense of independence and individuality, if you have these I think you would understand this statement.
Will let me give you a back massage.
Loves to travel. (I am going to Sweden, Finland, Estonia in June and Denmark and the Netherlands in November.)

How to disable Broadcasting of the SSID on a Tenda Router
Description: This article outlines the process of using the web interface of a Tenda router to disable the broadcasting of its wireless network's SSID. Disabling the SSID broadcast function of your router will prevent the network from showing up in the list of available networks found on most wireless devices. This can provide a layer of security against unauthorized use of your wireless network. It is important to keep in mind, however, that if you would like to connect an additional device to the wireless network after the SSID broadcast function has been disabled, you will need to manually configure your network information within the device's advanced network settings.
- Open your web browser.
- Type 192.168.0.1 into the address bar.
- Press Enter.
- Type the username and password of the router into the dialog box that appears. The default username of Tenda routers is admin and the default password of Tenda routers is admin if you have not changed it.
- Click on the OK button.
- Click on the WLAN Settings link.
- Select the Disable option for the Broadcast (SSID) field.
- Click on the Apply button to complete the process.

You see here a blessed scroll labeled SEIROMEM DONF.
I've been playing NetHack for quite some time. Eight years, off and on, and indeed, the game is still yet older than I am. In fact, my first play was when I was only ten (or so) years old—at the time, I almost always starved to death, and could never seem to get past the first dungeon level. I was young, and at the time, had never seen a console program. I was still only just entering the grand field of computers, and had much to learn. I read the guidebook, but to no avail. I just could not figure a way, for the life of me, to get down the stairs. As I learned some five years later, after I had given up, NetHack is case sensitive. I pounded ., desperate for my character's life, and in vain. I had no idea it required the shifted >.
Despite this, when I first played it, I knew even from that first humble level that it was my kind of game. It pained me, then, to give up. NetHack was one of the first games I ever played since getting into computers. Indeed, it was one of the first three major computer games I played—a list that contains Doom 2 (when I was only five, and Jack Thompson be damned, I'm pacifist), Baldur's Gate, and of course, NetHack. And boy did I pick a heckuva three to start: they're still among the best games I ever played, and I tell you, this isn't from nostalgia. I still play all three to this day. To Baldur's Gate, every few years I dust off the package and have another go at cleansing the Sword Coast. To Doom, mostly randomly generated levels, from OBLIGE; each time a new gate of Hell to storm, or fan-made WAD level files. And to NetHack, it's a game that's hard to truly get old.
Once I had learned of NAO, I began to play exclusively on NAO, and at the time, mostly just to prove I didn't cheat. In the eight years since I downloaded that first magical copy, I'm quite a changed man. These days, where a screenshot may have sufficed eight years ago, I'm now quite adept at digital image manipulation. My computer skills have exploded; from a bumbling fool of the latest Eternal September, to having it be nothing for me to use a hex editor to make myself immortal (a checksum of the file would just slow me down). And if I'm really dedicated, to modify the very source code (though I'm not much of a programmer, yet, in any language).
One of the best games I had I didn't actually win, but oh, how close I came before Orcus summoned the demon prince Demogorgon. I died in that horrid town, bloodying the brimstone walls from Demogorgon's strike. Several times, in fact, as I had prepared quite a few amulets of life saving.
It wasn't until April of '09 that I had my first real ascension—a priest. With that ascension, I had began a legacy of #name'ing all of my items funny things. To this day, I still get a chill down my spine every time I see Orcus Town, from the lost memory of my failed attempt. I've still yet to ascend with a barbarian, though I have with most other classes. It will be a grand feeling indeed to strike down Orcus—that coward!—in tribute for daring to trying to escape our fight.
I may not regard NetHack as the best game I've ever played, but oh, what a hard choice it was to decide. They're all so very close, each, to being the best. Each an inch of each-other. I can say with the utmost confidence, however, there is no question that it's the one that grew on me the most. And in my years, I've grown on it.

Rizvi Springfield (Bandra) made a dramatic comeback on Day Two of the Mumbai Schools Sports Association (MSSA) Under-16 Harris Shield Elite Division final against defending champions Al-Barkaat MMI (Kurla) at Azad Maidan yesterday after being bundled out for 210 on the opening day.
Rizvi Springfield's left-arm spinner Shreyans Bogar at Azad Maidan yesterday. Pic/Atul Kamble
Riding on left-arm-spinner Shreyans Bogar's seven-wicket haul, the Bandra school bundled out the opposition for 163 in 63.4 overs — taking a vital first innings lead of 47 runs at the Sassanian CC ground.
Resuming the day at 28-1, Al-Barkaat's target was to take the first innings lead, but they were unable to do so as 15-year-old Shreyans sent back Rohit Varma (14), Satyendra Yadav (8), Altamash Khan (9), Kesar Singh Thapa (8), Sumit Singh (1), Meer Rizvi (29) and Rajesh Sardar (0).
The Rizvi batsmen found the going tough in their second innings as Al-Barkaat spinners — off-spinner Meer and left-arm spinner Rajesh claimed 3-40 and 2-38 respectively — to restrict Rizvi to 109-6 at stumps for an overall lead of 156 runs.
Rizvi 109-6 at stumps It is up to No 6 batsman Shoaib Siddique (33 not out) and Shreyans (3 not out) to steady the ship today.
Brief scores
Rizvi Springfield 210 & 109-6 (Shoaib Siddique 33*; Meer Rizvi 3-40, Rajesh Sardar 2-38) lead Al-Barkaat MMI 163 in 63.4 overs (Rehan Khan 37, Aasim Shaikh 30; Shreyans Bogar 7-56) by 156 runs

I love it. Freedom for one. Diversity for another. I am surrounded by so many different cultures and beliefs, it's wonderful. I absolutely love learning about people from different places and their stories and beliefs. Religion: people are free to practice whatever they want or nothing at all here. I love that for the most part... people are friendly. I can go as South as Florida and as North as the Canadian border and people are genuinely kind for the most part. Dodge, that's enough right there 😛. It's absolutely gorgeous. But most of all I love the freedom and diversity.00|00|0

Stuart-- sorry but I am going to hijak your thread and ask Darryl a few questions.So I am looking on your website and I think the food looks great and all but....... Are you actually paying the people who own the rights to the movie franchise "Jaws" and are you paying Jay Leno and Conan O'brien to be on your site? Forgive me if my ignorance is showing but are you allowed to use them for this purpose if you aren't paying them? It appears you have one location, how can you afford them if you, in fact, are paying them?

I've never gone searching for someone on purpose and I don't think I'm that type of the girl to do so! My relationships have all developed out of friendships and knowing the person more than just a first encounter.
Anyone else out there feeling stuck in the rut? If you are, I can completely understand what you're going through!
I'm so tired of being alone!
Anyone else out there feeling this way?
Have an opinion?

Dear QA,
First please accept my wishes for happiness and best of luck in finding a decent comfortable relationship.
Secondly, yeah I understand what you are talking about...people can be deceived by seeing someone successful in studies, business...etc, yet they won't understand that from what I've seen, I think social success and establishing successful relationship is something I consider as a great task that only patience strong ones can do it.
Anyway, for me...I hit the wall many many times, I freaked out by the idea of being lonely first...but later I got used to it...
yeah I won't deny that I dream of being in the arms of a girl who can spark light in my dark chest...but somethings aren't meant to be :)
Well...an advice, don't get use to be lonely...it can be addictive :)
Thanks, same wishes to you. I just got out of a 3 year relationship (I couldn't put up with the fights anymore) so the concept of me being single for so long is new. However, I just miss the company and I had to vent to something lol (I guess this site is my diary that talks back sometimes). Hopefully, we get over this rut soon enough and get on with our happy lives :) Best wishes!
What Girls Said 1
lol, it's not a hobby. Just because I'm not telling you what you want to hear doesn't mean I'm fulfilling some hobby :P seriously, you look bad acting like your life is worthless without a relationship and it's a turn off. That will probably make you clingy which is another huge turn off. Get a grip and realize that there is so much more in life other than being in a relationship and wanting a relationship. Don't ignore the truth in what I have to say just because I'm not babying you and feeding into your pity party about being single.10|10|0
omg I'm not a troll just because I'm not telling you what you want to hear and babying you for your so called dillema. Delusional much? lol
by the way, it's very foolish for you to dismiss what I'm saying just because it doesn't coexist with your "omg my life sucks because I don't have a boyfriend even though there are millions of people out there who have it way worse than me" idea
I'm just saying, don't walk around acting like an eager, desperate puppy searching for scraps.

In chemistry lab, we made dyes by soaking fabric in one chemical, then in another, so the dye itself actually formed around the fibers instead of first creating the dye then dipping fabric in it to make the color. Because the dye is formed around the molecules of the fibers, it is very permanent.
The octopus was done by first soaking in one of the chemicals, then painting it on with the second. The rest is tie-dye.
This is actually the dye that is often used to make the red in the American flag.
Also, the dye looks like the blood from Sweeney Todd when it is in a flask.

National Geographic Channel presents the Indian television premiere of the Academy Award winning film "Penguins, A Love Story" on Sunday, May 27 at 8 p.m.
Narrated by Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan, this critically acclaimed film presents an extraordinary glimpse into the life of the Emperor Penguins. It is far more than a story of survival; it is a heart-warming love story from the coldest place on earth. Apart from the coveted Oscar statuette for Best Documentary Feature in 2006, the film has won a plethora of awards including a Cesar for Best Sound 2006 and a BAFTA nomination for Best Cinematography and Editing 2006.
The film follows a flock of Emperor Penguins as they embark on a truly remarkable journey in the pitiless ice deserts of Antarctica in search for their love deep in the most inhospitable terrain on earth. It is a journey, which has taken place for millennia. Braving icy winds, freezing temperatures and starvation, this is an incredible true story of the quest to bring new life into the world.
Speaking about the film, Rajesh Sheshadri, vice-president, marketing, National Geographic Channel, India, said, "Penguins, A Love Story" takes you on an incredible journey of the Emperor Penguins as they march under the most impossible conditions to find their mate. With brilliant cinematography, editing and a poignant narration by none other than Amitabh Bachchan the film will surely strike a chord with our audiences".

How to deal with MIL comments(28 Posts)
I've got some relatively minor MIL issues and just wondering if anyone has any suggestions how to deal with this sort of thing in a low key way - I'm not sure this merits a full on confrontation but I'd be interested in thoughts.
MIL (and FIL, but we don't interact so much) is fairly negative and I think a bit passive aggressive. She likes to make lighthearted put downs to, well basically everyone! It's not aimed at me, it's how the whole family interacts. DP (together 9 years, one DD, apologies if me calling them PIL annoys people since they aren't officially) used to be like this but I made it clear I wasn't keen and he's adjusted, though he slips back occasionally. It could be just their version of banter, but to my mind if it's not funny then it's not good enough for banter! Fine to make a funny joke, but a non-funny snide comment is just pointless. DP is the kindest, softest, loveliest man alive so the fact that he used to interact a bit like this just proves it's the whole family dynamic IMO. His brother and sister are like this too, but mostly in a witty was and can take as good as they give so that's fine.
Anyway examples of the sorts of comments:
I told MIL that we were going to start weaning DD when we visited them next weekend - I thought they'd appreciate being involved (watching). Her response - oh, do you finally think she's ready? (she's 5 months 2 weeks, 6 months by due date next saturday, and they were trying to get me to wean her at 3.5 months but I was very clear we were waiting till 6 months). I said 'yes, it's 6 months by due date so I'm happy to start, and she's been grabbing things off my plate and looking very hungry indeed'. MIL responded 'poor thing, you're not looking after her'. My reply 'given her weight I don't think anyone could accuse me of letting her go hungry!' MIL: 'oh, how big has she got now?' me: '22 1/2 lbs 10 days ago'.
This is typical - she makes a fairly small fry negative comment, I 'correct' her, and she comes back with more negative about my correction.
It sounds small when written down but I'm not used to it - my family are encouraging rto each other, so I'm wondering what the best way to handle it is. Or should I basically correct her when necessary and ignore it the rest of the time, which is what I currently do?
SharonCurley I got into researching MBTI personality types for a project, and I unexpectedly got really into it, as I'm fascinated by what drives different people.
This page gives descriptions of a few personality types under stress - ie at their worst. MBTI typology is no means set in stone, but there is a lot of food for thought in it, and it really helped me understand that some people are just the way they are and helped me not to take their behaviour personally. I've yet to read up fully on how much one's type is determined by nature or nurture.
Kiki I'm glad you have the sense of humour and the tough hide to not let your MIL get under your skin. I love 'what do you mean' and 'in what context', too.
I have extended family members like this. I smile and nod. If seriously annoyed, I laugh and make a joke that takes their implications to the extreme: "Oh god, parenting is soooo hard, I can't even feed them right. Shall we all go out to McDonalds? I bet DD could eat a chip."
So what if your MIL thinks she is right and you are wrong? So what if she faintly disapproves? You don't have to convince her that you are right. Why should you justify yourself to her? She's not your boss.
Ask them what they recommend, or what did you do with your children, how was this done in your day, why do you think it is done differently now a days etc can get them talking about themselves and their own opinions (their favourite topic) instead of judging you. If you treat their spiel like listening to a mildly interesting radio 4 documentary about the olden days, not a tutorial, then you might find some useful nuggets and can just let it roll off you.
Usually with these kind of people I say 'sorry? I'm not with you' they usually hate being called out on it, and haven't expected you to want an explanation. I like to see rude people squirm.......
I've been using them for years; particularly 'in what context' when someone spouts nonsense in meetings - gives me a chance to formulate an amazing retort.
I agree with answering her with a question. It sort of defuses people's attack and can make them see how silly are the things they're saying.
The not looking after her one was particularly amusing - the implication was I'm letting her go hungry, where actually she's now ~23lbs at 5 months so is waaay off the chart huge, and we're actually being referred to a paediatrician to rule out any genetic growth things as she's so big. I don't think there's anything to be worried about, she's just big (lots of tall people both sides of the family though I'm only average myself) and I produce a lot of milk, but it was a very strange thing to accuse me of given she's ansolutely huge! I quite like 'what do you mean' and 'in what context'. I'm sure they'll be met with silence most of the time or a laugh then 'oh, I didn't mean anything, I'm just pulling your leg' but they're a good subtle way of asking her to explain herself, which she won't be able to do.
I'd respond
'What do you mean'
'In what context'
Why do you say that'
Just keep answering with another question designed to unpick the situation and she will soon get bored.
I think the correct response to something like 'poor thing, you're not looking after her' is 'Please do not criticise my parenting. How rude.'
but people tend to think I'm bolshy too
Sharon the right response there would be "yes, I'm sensitive to rudeness! Please stop it."
Op, I think you just have to ignore the pettiness and not let it get to you. If they say anything contrary just be mildly sarcastic back "yes of course I'm neglecting her, (laugh) aren't you silly!" Some people try to make themselves feel better by being negative to others, I have an aunty like this. We don't see her often.
Thanks for all the supportive and understanding replies, it's good to know I'm not alone with the small stuff, as I know this is nowhere near as bad as some of the MIL threads on here.
I guess at least it helps me see how not to be a MIL should I be lucky enough to be granted that status one day!
I think it's also worth picking my battles. I got loads of grief from them both over xmas about feeding DD too much - she was 10 weeks old in a strange house with two licky dogs, lots of people she hadn't met before, sleeping in a new cot etc, and she wanted lots of comfort feeding so I kept her on my breast a lot. The comments I got about that! And this is after MIL proudly telling me she fed DP until he was 2 and loved the closeness. But she told me that before DD was born when I wasn't sure whether I'd be able to BF or not, so it's always slanting things to scold me.
Anyway...thankfully DP and DD are ace so I'll do as you all suggest and disengage from PIL when they start with their comments...
if that's their attitude to your career then I wouldn't show any deference to them AT ALL. They will be threatened no doubt by whatever decisions you make about anything.
You are not seeking approval or disapproval, you are capable parents enjoying your baby. They can either be happy for you or be left by the wayside.
It took me years to figure out the aura of schadenfreude radiating from MIL. Why would a parent find it difficult to be happy for their own child? I can't fathom it. MIL has failed at every stage of our relationship and family life.
The world is full of odd ones.
That's the purpose of passive aggressive comments, isn't it - to make it impossible for the recipient to respond without appearing oversensitive / rude / paranoid.
If you want to shut the comments down, I find it's best not to respond to them in detail or in a self-justifying way. It's obvious that your PIL aren't interested in being persuaded about particular issues, if they turn away when you're giving your opinions - they're just interested in point scoring.
So - with the weaning example - you could just say: "Yes, we're starting weaning now - it's the right time for baby". No more details - you don't have to justify your parenting decisions to PIL.
MIL's follow-up, saying you're not looking after DD properly, really does up the ante & is quite nasty. Don't carry on explaining yourself, show MIL that you can see she's being nasty & don't appreciate it.
Remarks like "Oh, what a mean thing to say" or "I'm sure you didn't mean that the way it sounded" might be useful. I'm guessing MIL would immediately say she didn't mean any harm or that you're being too sensitive. In which case, you could repeat a simple statement like: "I still don't appreciate comments like that".
If you get lots of unwanted advice / implied criticism, you could try smiling & saying "Oh, I wasn't asking for advice, thanks"; or comments like "Well, we're happy doing it like this, thanks!".
Interesting wigsy-do you mind me asking what personality type those traits would be common to?It seems to be a reply I hear alot these days-e.g dp interrupted me mid conversation last week to look at something or ignored me whilst he looked at iPhone.I dared to suggest that I found this rude but he said I was way too sensitive.Seems to be whenever I don't like something mil has said - I am way too sensitive.Can't help perceived slights on my parenting upsetting me though.
Tell them nothing. If they say 'oh, you're doing it that way' say 'yes.' They require no further explanation from you. Do not explain, justify your opinions or actions. Or you could play them at their own game and respond in kind.
Sorry, major cross posting there x
My MIL is exactly the same as yours. It took me years but I finally figured out how to deal with her when I started to find her comments amusing rather than annoying. It sounds ridiculous but comments I get about how I raise our children or how my house isn't as clean as my SIL's or how she could never do whatever it is I'm doing start to seem quite funny after a while.
An example is her latest one about bedtime stories for our youngest. DH does it usually and I mentioned that I'm really not that keen on reading stories. Her immediate response was "Oh don't you read to the children then? I used to love reading to MY children".I honestly laughed and just said "actually I spent years reading the same books every night for weeks with the other two, it's his turn now!" As it happens DH doesn't ever remember her reading a book to him at all so she's generally talking bullshit anyway
Try and look at it as "guess what she's said this time" rather than taking offence or letting it get you down.
I think you're responding in just the right way, Kiki, and I really admire you. She turns away because you've called her out on it and she knows it. You're making it clear this isn't going to wash with you.
Sharon, I get 'too sensitive' as an accusation as well, from my mother, who is foul. I've become really interested in personality types lately, and there is one type that never admits wrongdoing or allows any sensitivity from others. It helped me a lot in understanding/not giving a stuff any more.
High-five to you, Kiki. Better that she stops talking to you and turns away than carries on talking to you, by the sound of it.
I would agree that volunteering information is just giving them bait.
You are after a type of relationship with her that may never be forthcoming I'm afraid: Involved, encouraging, supportive, non judgemental...
Best strategy is to smile and nod, offer the least information and involvement. So with the weaning I wouldn't have made an announcement, I'd just start doing it. Don't get drawn into justifying any of your decisions. You are in charge and remember if they turn away while you're talking you can do the same too.
So if she starts questioning anything you just repeat 'this works for us' and change subject/walk away etc
Haha thanks Cogito - I am tempted, but DP loves his parents and especially his mum, he can see what she has to put up with (again all minor bullying from FIL, nothing at all serious, but I imagine it's eroded her sunniness a little over the years) so I don't want to deliberately argue with her and cause him heartache. I will try and stick to taking the high road.
The good thing is DP very much doesn't want to end up like his dad, constantly making 'hilarious' put downs of other people and this is something I can very gently reference on the odd occasion he's slipped back into old habits.
I think it's just when it's a perceived slight on our parenting of our lovely brand new DD that it makes me 100 times angrier and more defensive then when it was a comment about me or DP. I think they're also slightly jealous of us actually, we are both quite successful at work etc and I think they were both a bit scared of the world when they were in their 20s and 30s to go and and achieve, instead settling for mediocrity. They view us e.g. getting promotions and changing jobs as us being a bit grabby and never sitting still. I'm a civil servant so I'm hardly a banker treading on the little people to get ahead! But I studied hard (funded myself through a PhD) and am not afraid to try for a promotion after being in a job only a year. In their lives you stay still for 10 years like a good girl without peeking a toe out of line.
I think a lot of it is a generation thing, and I'm very lucky indeed that my parents didn't fall into this trap and are wonderfully encouraging people so I know you don't have to become sour as you get older, also this sets a good example for DP.
I know what you mean about the tone of voice. My MIL might easily make a similar comment to me but she is kind and supportive, so it would come across differently.
Would it work to respond as if you thought she was joking - so to the"poor thing" comment, laugh and say, "Yes I've been starving her, I'm surprised she hasn't wasted away to nothing!"
The hungry baby seems to be a common one.Mil was obsessed with weight and feeding and started solids .I was having none of it.Sil has recently had a baby and is Bfeeding and she is encouraging her to start solids soon as he will need to be filled up!
Oh and in my case I am labelled 'too sensitive'.
Don't stress yourself out over it.Its clearly their issue.As already mentioned, limit topics of conversation to more general stuff.My pils argue/ debate everything just for the sake of it.I find it exhausting.Can see where dp gets it from.Seems to be a power/control thing.I'm trying to disengage as I am worn out.You know what is best for your baby.
It doesn't sound 'nothing' at all. Awful, ingrained behaviour. Keep form in setting and maintaining your boundaries!
Trust me, I know the tone of voice you mean. It's very condescending and rude. The way I see it is that, if someone has you labelled as gobby and opinionated, don't disappoint them... You've got carte blanche to tell them anything you like.

Hi, I have recently deployed Forefront TMG as our perimeter software firewall and one thing I am struggling with, is that it seems to be interfering with Outlook free/busy information. The Exchange server is 2007.
I have not modified the vanilla install much, apart from adding some website exceptions, a couple of access rules and publishing the OWA url. Staff can browse through it fine running as a proxy but suddenly free/busy is simply displaying "no information available"
I know it is Forefront causing this as the same symptoms appeared last week and by removing the firewall from the network the issue was resolved. Since re-activating Forefront it is back again and I cannot for the life of me understand why - any ideas or help would be kindly appreciated.
Oct 3, 2011 at 10:28 UTC
Should be able to check in the Log to see what is getting binned by the Firewall and which rule
11 Replies
Oct 3, 2011 at 9:04 UTC
Hold the CTRL key down and select the Outlook icon in the Tray and look at the connection status and see what is not connecting (probably the directory)
Oct 3, 2011 at 9:29 UTC
Thanks Jono for the advice, connection status checks out okay (see attachment).
Oct 3, 2011 at 9:55 UTC
Was this Internal or External ?
Oct 3, 2011 at 9:57 UTC
This is internal.
Oct 3, 2011 at 10:03 UTC
You need to run it externally , I couldnt see if they were all connecting to the same server ?
Oct 3, 2011 at 10:13 UTC
Ah okay, well I am on a corporate LAN, so only need the free/busy to work internally. Yes all the same server.
I have just disabled the GPO for setting the proxy and now free/busy is as good as gold - so must be TMG!
Oct 3, 2011 at 10:28 UTC
Should be able to check in the Log to see what is getting binned by the Firewall and which rule
Oct 3, 2011 at 10:32 UTC
Yes good point, have had a look at the Forefront logs, will go through them again - does free/busy run on RPC port 135?
Oct 3, 2011 at 10:40 UTC
Yes - default but you can change in the registry (not that you'd want to)
Oct 3, 2011 at 11:48 UTC
Thanks for your help Jono, there were a couple of suspicious looking entries in the logs - one that caught my attention was "12202 Forefront TMG denied the specified Uniform Resource Locator (URL" This identified the Exchange server and the protocol as HTTPS-Inspect.
I have since added an access rule, allowing HTTPS and HTTPS Server traffic from internal users to the Exchange server and it is now working correctly.
Oct 4, 2011 at 12:33 UTC
Also add a rule for the External Users

That's what I do all the time. I don't treat others badly, instead I treat every one with respect but I never point it out. It's always better for people to come to that conclusion about me themselves. And if they don't, well whatever. Their loss.
But yes, that phrase is a guide on how to actually be a good person. Similar to what Jayzus said, in that a real Xtian does not boast about their good deeds but instead does them in secret. For only then are they truly good deeds that come from the heart and not of vanity - for the sake of attention.00|00|0
