Eminem Parody Video: "The Real Psycho Transformer" - About all the Hollywood Remakes
It seems like everyday I post some news about a older film getting remade. All these remakes are starting to get a little annoying and you have all voiced your opinion about your distaste for them. Where are all the original movie ideas gone? One of our twitter followers @LawrenceAugust sent us over a fun little Eminem Parody music video he and some friends put together that shows their dislike for the Hollywood remake revolution. Check it out below because I think you will get a kick out of it.
Here is a little side note from Lawrence August:
I have been getting increasingly upset by almost daily announcements that my favorite childhood movies are being re-made. Neverending Story? Really?! It's getting out of hand, I know it's on everyone's mind so I decided to make a song about it. I love Eminem, he's a freaking genius, so I chose his song that is about "copies" in it's own way as well.
Just to warn you the video drops the F-bomb quite a bit So don't have your speakers turned up at work. I hope enjoy it!

Engine and Transmission Rating:
Compared with newer and more advanced powertrains, the Tundra's engines and sole transmission are positively prehistoric. Its top V-8 hasn't been updated since George W. Bush was president, and its automatic transmission only offers six gears.
What's New for 2018?
As with the rest of the Tundra, its powertrain is in need of an update. That's not part of the deal for 2018, as the two V-8 engines and the six-speed automatic are unchanged.
2017 Toyota Tundra
The Tundra has two V-8 choices: The base engine is a 4.6-liter that makes 310 horsepower and 327 pound-feet of torque; the optional 5.7-liter V-8 is good for 381 horsepower and 401 pound-feet of torque. Rear-wheel drive is standard and four-wheel drive is optional for both setups, but not for all cab-and-bed configurations. We've spent many hours with the Tundra's larger engine. It's reasonably peppy and can be quite quick. Apply a heavy foot to the throttle, however, and the big V-8 emits a leaf-blower-like noise. The six-speed automatic shifts slowly and is outdated compared with its rivals' eight- and 10-speed automatics.
Test Results: Acceleration
Tow Ratings Compared
The Tundra's maximum tow rating of 10,500 pounds will be more than most people need. In its least powerful configuration, a Tundra with the smaller V-8 is still able to tow a minimum of 6800 pounds. As with heavy-duty towing, those who want the greatest payload rating should consider the GMC Sierra, the Chevrolet Silverado, or the Ford F-150.

From Publishers Weekly
Readers hungry for the thought-provoking extrapolation and rigorous technical detail of old-fashioned hard SF are sure to enjoy astronomer Brotherton's first novel. The thinly characterized crew of the Karamojo has been hand-picked to travel 250 light years to SS Cygni, a binary star system, to capture a star dragon, an exotic creature seemingly comprised of stellar plasma and magnetic fields. Despite her "striking" good looks, Capt. Lena Fang is all business, only revealing her "feminine" side in the "timelessly girlish" trappings of her private quarters, and in her dealings with the ship's AI, modeled on a decidedly soft-hearted vision of Hemingway. In contrast, exobiologist Dr. Samuel Fisher and biosystems engineer Axelrod Henderson are both uptight and ruthlessly focused on their work. Fisher's manipulative sexual relationship with Fang threatens the crew's ability to work together, while Henderson secretly plots to release a virus that will impregnate every female on Earth with his offspring. When they eventually reach SS Cygni, the star dragons prove surprisingly sneaky. Brotherton's strength is in the technical rigor of his setting, with truly alien creatures and biomods that can alter the human body into the most exotic of life forms. Readers willing to overlook the less-than-convincing characters will find an amazingly detailed world and a story full of scientific wonder.

From Booklist
*Starred Review* A probe launched in the late twenty-first century to the classic dwarf nova system SS Cygni has sent back hours of video, including a few minutes that show a serpentine form not only twisting lazily but also turning in a purposive way suggestive of intelligence. The Biolathe Corporation is sending a spaceship to study the dragonlike form, determine whether it is of natural or artificial origin, and, perhaps, return with a specimen. The round-trip voyage will take about three years of the crew's subjective time; meanwhile, 500 years will have passed on Earth. Eagerly joining the crew of three men and two women, exobiologist Sam Fisher becomes ever more obsessed with what he considers his dragon. Star Dragon is steeped in cosmology, the physics of interstellar travel, exobiology, artificial intelligence (in the form of the ship's brain, which is modeled on Ernest Hemingway), bioscience, and other things. Just as important to the plot are the dynamics and interactions of the very well developed characters, each of whom has personal reasons for making the long journey. Brotherton, author of many scientific articles in refereed journals, has written a dramatic, provocative, utterly convincing hard-science sf novel that includes an ironic twist that fans will love.

A crew of five embarks on a voyage to investigate, and if possible capture, a mysterious "dragon" that has been spotted in the super-hot plasma disk around the star SS Cygni. The round trip will take two years subjective time, but 500 years will elapse on Earth. As you might imagine, such a voyage would attract some extremely interesting characters, and this is one of the main strengths of the book. Each character has incredible depth and complexity, which is only magnified by their interactions (and conflicts) with each other. Every sub-section within a chapter is focalized through (i.e. told from the viewpoint of) a different character, so the reader gets multiple perspectives on the same series of events. Another strength of the book is the author's imagination of how technology might change society in the future, when genetic and biological engineering allow humans to become practically immortal. This book will also teach you a lot about cataclysmic variable stars, hypothetical (but plausible) physics of interstellar flight, and exobiology.
On the negative side, I thought the pace of narration became a little stagnant. I could have used a little less character interaction, and little more plot: tension gradually rises, some interesting twists happen, but nothing that completely made my jaw drop. At times the book tries to get philosophical, but it never acquires the depth to count as "literature." Still, it's not excessively long, and it comes to a dramatic and satisfying conclusion. Overall, I found it quite memorable; some of the visuals, in particular, are beautifully described and will stay in my imagination for a long time.
There were no major flaws, but it would be hard to identify with any of the characters, so you are unlikely to be as involved as you might be with, for instance, a David Weber, David Drake, or Dave Duncan character.
If Mike writes another book I will buy it. He is going to get better.
Star Dragon is set in the near future, in the late 26th-Century. It is a world in which biotechnology is omnipresent, and occupies a niche that in most other SF works would be filled by robotics: there are biodevices that act as assistants, "fishes" that deal with environmental waste processing, and even biochairs ("chairbeasts" is the descriptive term used by the author) that are perfectly suited to the preferences of their owners. All these devices are created from biomass when needed, and recycled when no longer useful or when higher priorities arise. Biotechnology also applies to humans, and although not yet to the extent of achieving immortality, life expectancies are counted in centuries. Besides expected feats such as nanomedical bots in the blood, "body modules" are available to change both aesthetic (one of the characters has at the beginning of the novel some small wings behind the ears), and deeper physiological aspects.
The novel begins when Biolathe, a biotechnology company, recruits experts for a mission. A probe launched in late 21th-Century to SS Cygni -at 250 light-years from Earth- has sent video images showing what looks like an alien life form. SS Cygni is a so-called cataclysmic variable, a binary system consisting of a main sequence star and a white dwarf: gas flows from the secondary star towards the primary (white dwarf) forming an accretion disk around it. It is precisely in this disk where the creature that gives its name to the novel is spotted. The mission is going to the system and retrieving samples of the creature, whose biotechnological value can be incalculable.
The team for this mission is composed of Fang (the captain of the ship), Fisher (the exobiologist), Stearn (techno-engineer), Henderson (the bio-engineer), Deveraux (astrophysics), and Papa (an artificial intelligence that controls the ship). Gender imbalance does not become a significant part of the plot, despite two couples are formed. A much more important issue will be that the objectives (or rather, priorities) of the exobiologist and the captain are different: the former develops a protective instinct towards the dragon, whereas the latter would rather bomb the accretion disk and settle for a dragon corpse. This difference of opinions is accentuated to the point of provoking sabotage attempts, but when the time to haunt a dragon arrives, these turn out to be much more difficult to kill than expected, and the very survival of the ship force cooperation among crew members.
Throughout the novel, the stylistic similarity (sought or not) to Robert L. Forward is evident both in the extensive description of the dynamics of the system (the accumulation of material in the accretion disk causes a dwarf nova from time to time, which should be taken into account during the development of the mission) as in the description of the physiology of the dragons (whose existence is effectively explained). The climax may be regarded as satisfactory, thus rounding a quite enjoyable novel (especially for those who like hard science fiction.)
This is Mike Brotherton's second book, and writes much like the professor he is - that's good when it comes to carefully realized scientific setups, but not so good when it comes to a page-turning narrative or a strong sense of character. That means that Boomers who grew up reading hard-science scifi will feel right at home, but those expecting a little more nuance might not be as entertained. You pays your money and you takes your choice ...

10 Adventures to Put on Your Bucket List Now
By Michael Lanza
Do you have a "bucket list?" How long is it? I'm not sure how many trips there are on my list, which I've maintained for years, but I can tell you its word count: 18,519 words (including notes about each trip). And it keeps getting longer, not shorter, even though I tick off new trips every year. This year, for example, I trekked the majestic Tour du Mont Blanc with my family (see below) and adventured in Costa Rica, and next month I'm backpacking an 87-mile traverse across Glacier National Park.
If you're looking for great ideas for your bucket list (and who isn't?), you've clicked to the right place. I've assembled here 10 of the best adventures I've taken over nearly three decades as an outdoor writer and photographer—all of them trips that belong on every serious outdoor adventurer's list—with information based on my personal experience, and links to stories at The Big Outside with many more images from and info about each one.

Photo Gallery: 25 Favorite Backcountry Campsites
By Michael Lanza
Everyone has favorite campsites from unforgettable backcountry trips. I've been fortunate to have pitched a tent in many great campsites over nearly three decades of backpacking and trekking all over the U.S. and the world. This photo gallery spotlights several camps from my list of 25 all-time favorite campsites, which I update regularly. Among them are jaw-dropping spots like Death Canyon Shelf along the Teton Crest Trail in Grand Teton National Park, The Narrows in Zion National Park, Camp Schurman on Mount Rainier, Johns Hopkins Inlet in Alaska's Glacier Bay, a couple of unbelievable spots in the Grand Canyon, and Precipice Lake in Sequoia National Park (photo above).

10 Tips For Keeping Kids Happy and Safe Outdoors
By Michael Lanza
Some people might say my wife and I are bad parents. We've repeatedly and deliberately placed our kids—at young ages—in risky situations. And I'm not talking about letting them ride their bikes without wearing helmets (which, admittedly, would be insane) or frequently taking them to McDonald's (and what kind of parent would do that?!).
I'm talking about setting out with seven- and four-year-old kids to cross-country ski through a snowstorm for hours to a backcountry yurt. Tying a six-year-old into a rope and letting him or her rock climb a cliff. Rappelling into slot canyons. Backpacking into the remotest and most rugged wildernesses in the contiguous United States, from the Grand Canyon to the Tetons to Glacier National Park. Continue reading →
Photo Gallery: Every National Park I've Visited
By Michael Lanza
How many national parks have you visited? I've been to close to half of the 59, and although that includes numerous return trips to some major parks, I still have more work to do. Then again, you could hardly call seeing our national parks "work," right? What writer and historian Wallace Stegner famously called "the best idea we ever had" has grown from a handful of parks created in the early days to a system in many ways without parallel, that protects 52 million acres of mountain ranges, canyons, rivers, deserts, prairies, caves, islands, bays, fjords, badlands, natural arches, and seashores in 59 parks. Without that protection, these places that draw visitors from around the world would otherwise almost certainly have been exploited and destroyed. Continue reading →

The Open Mic
June 1, 2013
Dan's making jokes about his dick. He's straddling the mic stand and yelling, "I'm going to cum all over your face!" I sink deeper into my seat, glad to be in the dark so he can't see the disgust on my face. God, why did I fuck him after last week's mic? Because of the liquor. Because he praised my set. Because it seemed like he understood me in a way so few of these cliché comics ever do. If he had gone up on stage last Monday, there's no way I would have gone home with him.
It's 7:00pm. The ten other people in Hank's Bar's tiny basement are drunk comedians, nine of them dudes, slouching on the lumpy stained couch against the back wall or in the discolored plastic lawn chairs scattered across the sticky floor. Everyone is sitting as far back as possible leaving the front two rows empty. I recognize most of the guys from last week. They all look fairly similar: disheveled white guys approaching middle age with beer guts and unshaved faces, uncombed hair, ironic T-shirts. There are a couple of black dudes who are just as drunk but still manage to look somewhat put together; they know how to maintain harder bodies and dress in a way that makes them look like they might have a respectable day job. They might even work together on a low rung at the same corporate job and decided to mutually support each other's secret fantasy of being the next Chris Rock. Then of course there's the one Korean guy who's here every week, Young Yoon. Last week during his set, he could hardly get a joke out. The room was heckling him so bad, calling him Kim Jong-il and shouting at him to go back to Korea. Poor Young Yoon. He's actually quite funny! I'd fuck him if he weren't so short. I've seen him really kill with a more civilized room. I guess one could call the crowd tonight civilized, although comatose would be more fitting.
The door at the top of the stairs swings open, and the bar music gusts into the room before it's re-muffled. Three younger looking guys and one girl descend the steps, whispering and giggling to each other, the requisite one-drink minimum in hand. They don't look sloppy or desperate enough to be comics; they must know someone going on tonight. Or maybe they're drunk college students, checking out the cool New York dives. Those were the days.
I glance at the tiny curly haired Jewess next to me, hugging the wall and looking over her notes. I'm always intrigued to see what the other chicks do, so disappointed when they're just as bad as the guys with their jokes about being fat sluts who know how to take a punch. They think they're subverting sexism or at least that's how they defend themselves to me over piss colored beers after shows. When did comedy become about the public contemplation of suicide?
I make it a rule to never talk about sex, heartbreak, or how much I hate myself, though of course I think about all three constantly. These thoughts are the root cause of why I take uptown trains from Canal Street when I mean to go to Brooklyn, or walk into walls, or drop my wallet on the tracks. Sex, heartbreak and self-loathing are so obvious; I need to be more original than that to have any shot at being noticed.
This room is like a botched group therapy session: the kind where everyone is a total egomaniac and no one is listening to anyone else. It's group therapy where everyone is actually obsessed with their dysfunction and wants to revel in it instead of trying to get well.
Derek went up before Dan. Now he's picking up his beer and heading upstairs. I'm tempted to follow him and forget about my set. My jokes suddenly all strike me as dumb, incomplete, pretentious… maybe a better use of my time would be to go home and work on them, or drink myself to sleep. Most of the comics are just fiddling with their phones anyway. At least Dan can't see because the spotlight is so blinding. We can only be honest with people we can't see. That's comedy.
The host, Max, just flashed Dan the light, indicating he has one minute to wrap up. I'm up next, and if I bomb I'll have an excuse to get wasted and fuck another sad comic. Jesus, if I want drunk sex that bad, I should probably just sign up for OkCupid. I don't need to put myself through this Hell. So why do I? It's probably because I'm a masochist. It probably has something to do with my childhood days back on the farm in Kentucky, some traumatic incident involving my dad and a cow udder.
Dan finishes his last joke and I give a courtesy laugh, applauding even though I stopped listening after the opening dick jokes. Max gets up and shakes Dan's hand, the two of them looking oh so pleased with themselves. They may as well be swapping semen.
"Thanks, Dan," says Max close enough to the mic to make it squeak. Everyone jumps in their seats; at least they'll be awake for my set. The three youngsters cackle, marking the greatest laughter spell of the night. Max glances at the set list scotch taped to the sidewall. Dan saddles up to the late girl and plants a wet one on her mouth, sliding into the lawn chair beside her. I try sizing up the affectionate display to my left, trying to ascertain the level of familiarity.
"Alright, next we have Miss Lauren Hauser. Give it up!" yells Max.
There's a flurry of light applause, like no one wants to clap too hard for fear of hurting their hands. I could be doing so many other things right now, like applying to law school or the seminary or petitioning a homeless man to rape me. Instead I calmly rise and wade through the musty air to the mic, taking my place under the light. The light seems brighter than I remember. Maybe the rapture is coming.
"Hi everyone," I hear myself say. That first sound of my voice projecting from the speakers gives me the familiar shot of self-importance that I know will leave as soon as I tell a joke that falls flat. And then the self-hatred will creep in, but I won't talk about it. I'll dutifully recite what I prepared, knowing I can punish myself later. Stand up comedy really can be such an unforgiving art form. Oh well. Fuck it. Here goes.
"For real, people, I am weary to the fucking bone. Mostly because of living in this cunt-sack of a city, and trying so fucking hard to be somebody special." The college girl emits a small gasp, probably because I used the word 'cunt'.
"And another thing, why are you so fucking shocked by the word 'cunt'? We women need to reclaim it like the gays have reclaimed 'faggot' and 'queer' and the blacks have reclaimed 'nigger' and the Koreans… Well, Young Yoon, you tell me. What's the reclaiming going on there, 'Slanty Eyes'?" Young Yoon snickers. The supportive little bastard would probably make a great boyfriend.
"But back to the point, why do I need to make a bunch of strangers in the dark laugh at me to feel like my life is worth anything? Are you even listening to me right now or are you checking Facebook? Shit, I don't care if you check Facebook. Are you checking to see who liked your latest status update? Are you refreshing the page over and over, hoping someone will? Is it the technological age that makes us crave this kind of constant external validation or is just being human and technology has given us more access?"
The room is dead silent. I can still make a run for the stairs. Nobody would come after me. But instead I go on.
He shrugs as if to say whatever, and I notice for the first time tonight that he's wearing a tie over his T-shirt.

At some point in our lives, we all look back at the choices we have made and re-evaluate them. On the block today is Fashion Design School; a two-year fashion design program at a Toronto college which lists many of the valuable courses as electives rather than part of the foundations, offering students one elective in each year included in the tuition. I have a passion for fashion, and to quote Jess Glynne: there's no place I'd rather be. I can confidently say that it was student debt well spent. However, now that I've arrived in the working world as a professional I can think of a few things I wish I had learned during my time at Fashion Design School.
1. Fitting
Fittings are a crucial part of dressmaking and fashion design. If a garment is too tight obvious bunching will occur - I'm sure we've all tried on something that was two sizes too small and felt like a sausage stuffed into casing. And if a garment is too big, the wearer appears to drown in it and is equally unflattering. Although this topic is generally covered, it would have been valuable to spend more time on this foundational subject. Learning how to get a perfect fit for your garments is quite a feat, something many professionals still might struggle with. Anyone in the fashion world will attest to the fact that the fit of a garment is the largest determining factor to make or break a look.
2. Networking: The Virtuous Circle
It's not what you know, it's who you know: Although this is not necessarily true across the board, many of the best opportunities are created from networking relationships. In an era as social as this one, more information or tools on how to network and build connections within the industry is a valuable skillset. With the wide range of seminars and conventions across the globe, networking has not only become an essential part of our modern day, but necessary and anticipated for many businesses. Metaphorically, networking is similar to the snowball effect in which the more people you meet, the more opportunities arise, which ultimately leads to meeting even more people and opening more doors.
3. Block Making
In garment creation, a block or a sloper is your foundation pattern. It is the very basic pattern that can be manipulate into different garments; it is an incredibly versatile and endlessly useful tool. This program lent the students a sloper for the duration of the program rather than teaching the foundations of making your own. Thankfully, this skill is in just about any fashion-drafting textbook.
4. Structural
As a cosplayer I often find myself online trying to find a good tutorial on how to properly create a garment that contributes to the structural integrity of my costume like a hoop skirt, a corset, or even a petti coat. Unfortunately I didn't receive training on this subject in my program, but I found a great step-by-step walkthrough of corset drafting on Your Wardrobe Unlocked, an online resource for beginner, intermediate and advanced costume creators: http://yourwardrobeunlockd.com/articles/costumemaking/paterns/65-drafting?showall=&limitstart
As far as petti coats and hoop skirts go commercial patterns have some very easy to follow patterns and instructions. I've yet to make a hoop skirt but I will be needing to for the upcoming convention season and I will be using this tutorial: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Draft-a-Custom-Hoop-Skirt-Pattern-With-the-/
5. Some organizations prefer volunteer experience to interning
A career counsellor once explained that employers prefer volunteer experience in a candidate as it gives the impression that the volunteering gives the impression of someone with experience, where as interning is still learning.
6. Fashion is an art; art is subjective
Individuality and creativity are often the two driving factors behind the most incredible garments in fashion. Focus more on expressing your unique style rather than worrying about whether or not others like it. There will always be a factor of the market and current trends, however, as a designer you should be able to take inspiration from those trends and shape them into your own. Always keep in mind though not everyone is going to like certain trends. I've heard so many complaints about even just this year's pantone colour of the year
7. A good pair of fabric shears can make all the difference
There is nothing worse than cutting with dull shears. It's important to invest in higher quality tools, especially if you're using them everyday. Invest in yourself and take pride of your talent!

Acerca de
'Why are there all these different processor architectures and what do they all mean? Which processor will I use? How should I choose it?' Given the task of selecting an architecture or design approach, both engineers and managers require a knowledge of the whole system and an explanation of the design tradeoffs and their effects. This is information that rarely appears in data sheets or user manuals. This book fills that knowledge gap.
Section 1 provides a primer and history of the three basic microprocessor architectures. Section 2 describes the ways in which the architectures react with the system. Section 3 looks at some more commercial aspects such as semiconductor technology, the design cycle, and selection criteria. The appendices provide benchmarking data and binary compatibility standards. Since the first edition of this book was published, much has happened within the industry. The Power PC architecture has appeared and RISC has become a more significant challenger to CISC. The book now includes new material on Power PC, and a complete chapter devoted to understanding the RISC challenge. The examples used in the text have been based on Motorola microprocessor families, but the system considerations are also applicable to other processors. For this reason comparisons to other designs have been included, and an overview of other processors including the Intel 80x86 and Pentium, DEC Alpha, SUN Sparc, and MIPS range has been given. Steve Heath has been involved in the design and development of microprocessor based systems since 1982. These designs have included VMEbus systems, microcontrollers, IBM PCs, Apple Macintoshes, and both CISC and RISC based multiprocessor systems, while using operating systems as varied as MS-DOS, UNIX, Macintosh OS and real time kernels. An avid user of computer systems, he has written numerous articles and papers for the electronics press, as well as books from Butterworth-Heinemann including VMEbus: A Practical Companion; PowerPC: A Practical Companion; MAC User's Pocket Book; UNIX Pocket Book; Upgrading Your PC Pocket Book; Upgrading Your MAC Pocket Book; and Effective PC Networking.
Senior Staff Engineer, European Strategy and Technology Development, Motorola Semiconductors, Steve Heath has written 15 books on topics covering Apple and IBM PCs, processor architectures, UNIX and Windows NT operating systems.

6 Comments Wednesday 24th of August, 2016. I expected to meet a friend, but she did not come so I finished my dinner and went to the mosque to pray. At 7:04 p.m., I had just finished praying when three explosions went off two meters (6.5 feet) from the mosque read pdf. It was still The brightest minds of much of our past dedicated themselves to poetry epub. Aesop was an ancient Greek storyteller who lived around 550 BCE. He was a slave who lived in ancient Rome in the home of a wealthy family. Supposedly Aesop's master was so pleased by his stories that he granted Aesop his freedom. "Little is known about the ancient Greek writer Aesop (c. 620 B. E.), whose stories of clever animals and foolish humans are considered Western civilization's first morality tales http://gec.org.ru/?books/violet. She wrote of Havelock Ellis in 1980, and her second Governor General�s Award winning book was the biography of Melanie, Klein in 1986 ref.: http://www.spectrum613.com/lib/the-luba-poems. In 1973 she met her life partner Andrew Marshall and became a stepmother and later a son arrived. Concerned with the lack of respect given to writers she became co-founder of both the Writer�s Union of Canada and the Professional Writer�s Association of Canada http://gec.org.ru/?books/boogie-woogie-crisscross.

After reading selections of Rukeyser's poems and examining several of Kollwitz's works, a similarity can be gathered between the two. Each based their respective expressions of art on more everyday-type people than anything else. While some authors we have read in class wrote sections of the Bible from female perspectives and some created short stories from their minds, Kollwitz and Rukeyser created based on actual people.

The convenient truth: How not all ready meals are bad for you
By FIONA MACDONALD JOYCE
Last updated at 08:46 25 February 2008
Well balanced: A supermarket ready meal can be a surprisingly nutritious option
No matter how good your intentions of eating a healthy, well balanced diet, it is often easier and quicker to grab a ready meal. In fact, we spent £2billion on them last year - more than any other country in Europe.
The good news is that readymeal ranges are increasingly focusing on nutritional content.
Here nutritionist and food writer Fiona Macdonald Joyce gives you her healthiest supermarket choices.
M&S Chicken Portobello Casserole £6.49
My rule for choosing these meals has been that the first ingredients are protein and plant food.
Half this meal consists of protein-rich chicken and the mushrooms are very low in calories and rich in B vitamins.
One portobello mushroom has more potassium than a banana and there's enough here to count as a portion.
Leeks and onions have antibacterial properties and are rich in anti-carcinogenic chemicals; the butter is unsalted, contributing to the low salt content.
The small amounts of parsley and thyme help eliminate waste from the intestinal tract.
Sainsbury's Pork in Somerset Brandy and Apples, Taste the Difference, £3.99
This is mainly made of natural foods. We eat much less protein than our ancestors, so a meal with more than 50 per cent of ingredients from protein is good.
When fat occurs in natural foods, as it does here, it's not a barrier to weight loss and this meal contains only 2.6g of saturated fat - a low amount. It's relatively low-salt.
Tesco Finest Beef Bourguignon, £4.99
There are some great wholefoods here - nearly half the meal is protein from beef. Carrots and onion contain Vitamin C and beta-carotene which support the liver.
Potassium-rich celery helps lower blood pressure and offsets the salt. Red wine contains polyphenols - antioxidants that can help battle illnesses such as heart disease and cancer.
There is only 2.3g of saturated fat, and the small amount of butter is good as it contains butyric acid, helpful in preventing a leaky gut.
Morrisons Natural Choice Three Bean Chilli Steamer, £2.99
Brown rice is better than white but wholegrains aren't as nutrient dense as vegetables or meat so it's good that only a fifth of the meal is made up of rice, while the rest is from unprocessed wholefoods and vegetables.
Tomato is rich in lycopene, a protector against heart disease and certain cancers, and chilli protects against colds.
Sainsbury's Wild Alaskan Salmon with a Peppery Aatercress and Lemon Melt Sauce, £3.99
Eighty per cent of this meal is protein and the fats are mainly healthy omega-3 essential fats from the salmon, a sustainably caught wild fish that has higher protein and lower overall fat content than farmed salmon.
There's only 0.5g of salt per 100g which is good. The full-fat soft cheese, double cream and creme fraiche are wholefoods and the lemon juice and nutmeg in the sauce aid digestion.
M&S Trout Fillet with Crab, Red Pepper & Chive, £4.99
Trout is an excellent oily fish full of omega-3 fats, and crab is a lean, high-protein food packed with zinc, a key mineral for the immune system.
Olive oil is a mono-unsaturated fat that is good for the heart. The cream cheese is a natural food that adds texture to the dish without the need for any processed extras.
This meal is particularly good because it so closely resembles something you'd cook from scratch using natural ingredients the body thrives on.
Tesco Finest Cajun Spiced Chicken and Vegetable; £4.49
Just over half the meal is protein from chicken and half the fat content comes from good fats such as mono-unsaturated fat which is linked to a healthy heart.
Sweet potatoes release sugar into the bloodstream more slowly than ordinary potatoes and are more nutritious, rich in the antioxidant betacarotene.
Coriander is a digestive aid and piperine, a substance in black pepper, helps the body absorb up to 50 per cent more nutrients from a meal.
