Jeep in Pool After Failed Jump: Canadian Daredevil's Feat Goes Viral (VIDEO)
A Jeep in a pool video went viral after a Canadian daredevil attempted to jump the body of water. Kenny McLean of southern Ontario, Canada and his friends thought of the idea last week, but ended up completely destroying the above ground pool instead.
The Jeep flew into the pool's side wall because of the shoddily-constructed ramp the risk takers attempted to use. The beginning of the video focuses on the SUV, which barrels full speed at the ramp, but instead crashes through it and into the pool, barely gaining enough height not to destroy the entire structure. "You did it wrong!" an onlooker yelled.
"This is how we tear down a pool in Southern Ontario," McLean wrote on the YouTube page, where his video garnered almost 280,000 views so far.
However, once the Jeep Cherokee crashed into the pool, displacing a good amount of water, the structure still stood. It took a friend's concrete saw cutting through the wall of the pool before the filthy water could come rushing out. The off-ramp remained unused, and many users were impressed by the dangerous stunt and the resilient pool.
"That pool didn't want to quit," one user wrote on YouTube.
"Takes me back to my youth… it is great to know nonsense like this still goes on," furyiiiplate posted.
"Not much difference between us Americans and Canadians after all," Linkgt added.
The video has appeared on television stations like HLN, and the hits for the viral video continue to grow. McLean even posted a second video of the daredevil stunt with angles from inside the Jeep— that one has 50,000 views and counting.
Though it seemed from the video like both the Jeep and the pool were destroyed, McLean posted that the vehicle still runs fine despite its time underwater.

Manchester City's title hopes may have suffered a significant fifa 16 ultimate team coins blow on Thursday, as star forward Sergio Aguero was carted off the pitch during Argentina's World Cup qualifier against Ecuador.
"The studies we did these days show that Sergio Aguero features a Grade 2 muscle tear," said the Argentine Football Association, per Sky Sports.
"I believe I'll be a month without having playing," Aguero told TyC Sports, per Reuters. "I'll go to the AFA [Argentinian Football Association] national group compound to carry on with therapy. To recover from the tear, I'll certainly require a month while it's going to rely how it evolves."
Sky Sports noted that Aguero will take as much as eight weeks to recover.
The 27-year-old is arguably City's most important player. The world-class forward is coming off a brilliant 2014/15 season that saw him score 26 objectives and add eight assists in 30 league games for the Citizens.
He also earned a sparkling 7.67 typical match rating from WhoScored.com, which was bested only by Chelsea's Eden Hazard and Arsenal's Alexis Sanchez.
He was a bright spot for the group in UEFA Champions League play as well, notching six ambitions and an help in six games.
Aguero's loss implies the team's other superstars"David Silva, Yaya Toure, Raheem Sterling, Vincent Kompany and Joe Hart, most prominently"will must elevate their games.
And also the other forwards on the team, for example Wilfried Bony and Kelechi Iheanacho, may have to seek out ways to fill within the goalscoring void left behind in Aguero's wake.
A single key concern for City, needless to say, is going to be that Iheanacho is not on the team's Champions League roster. Manager Manuel Pellegrini will have to have creative with his attacking force although Aguero is sidelined.
Regardless, ascending for the leading of English and European football might be a tall job with no Aguero, whose injury history continues to be a hindrance for one particular in the world's most clinical finishers.
If Aguero is forced to miss a massive chunk of time, City's higher aspirations for this season might go wanting.

Hi to all thinkers out there
I don't speak english very well, so please be patient while I explain this. This is more like an exercise for me to clear my mind, but if someone suggest something, he/she is welcome.
I'm trying to make a program in C, for gammblers.
It is some kind of lottery, this is how it works:
You pick a number from 0000 to 9999, and fill your ticket with that number. Now there are a few ways to play:
1. You win if exactly the number you picked, appears as the winning number.
2. You win if any permutacion of the digits you picked appears in the winning number (e.g. I chose 1234 and I win if the winning number is 4321 or 2143, etc..). Of course you will eran less money.
3. You can chose a number that could have 1 digit repeated (e.g. 1134, 2234, etc..) and you will win if any permutacion of the digits appears in the winning number.
4. You can play to guess the final digit, the final pair of digits, the first digit, or the first two digits of the number.
So, please tell me if I'm right.
I have all the numbers that have been appearing since 1996.
So, I can calculate wich numbers are likely to show up in the next event by looking at the statistics. I say that a digit is likely to show up if the statictics says that this digit has shown up less than other.
if the digit '1' has appeared 80 times and the digit '2' has appeared 100 times, is more likely that the digit '1' shows up in the next event.
I'm building the whole program with this principle.
If someone is interested in helping me and exchange code via the Net, I will be very pleased, but not just that, I could send some of the money I earn with this program, to you, honestly.
Please, reply to this thread or write me at firstname.lastname@example.com, One more time, I'm serious about this, and you couldn't find someone else more honest than me.
Have a good day.

In this QuickTip I'll walk through how to add custom email types to the email fieldset. Before moving on, the first thing you should do is install the Code Snippets plugin.
To add new email types you need to hook into
cn_email_options filter. This filter supplies an array containing the core email types. The array key is the email type ID and the array value is the email label.
The email key ID needs to be in all lowercase using underscores in places of spaces and the email label can be any text that you wish.
The following example code adds two new email types named "Shipping" and "Receiving".
function cn_my_new_email_types( $options ) { $options['primary'] = 'Primary'; $options['secondary'] = 'Secondary'; return $options; } add_filter( 'cn_email_options', 'cn_my_new_email_types' );
To see this example code in action, copy/paste it as a new code snippet using the Code Snippets plugin. Save and Activate the new code snippet with "Run snippet everywhere" option selected.
Now, when you add a new entry, you will see the new email types "Primary" and "Secondary" as options.
Using this method you can add as many email types as you need.

The Association of Jersey Charities is the representative body of the majority of charitable organisations operating in Jersey.
Presently the Association has 311 member charities and these range from branches of national charities to small local charities, clubs, societies and support groups.
A Charities Law has been passed, November 2014, giving a definition of charity and the provision to set up a charities commission. Until a commissioner is appointed to do this, there is no central register or regulation of local charities. As yet we do not have a timetable for this.
The Association of Jersey Charities exists to provide guidance to and be a source of funding for its members. Jersey charities are welcome to apply to be members, but to establish as a local charity is not dependent upon Association membership.
The Association receives the Jersey share of the Channel Islands' Lottery profits from the Economic Development Ministry to distribute to our members according to need. This funding is therefore dependant on the success of the Lottery.
We would urge our members to support the Channel Islands' Lottery so that the the Economic Development Ministry and the Association can continue to support your vital work.
You will also be able to find out more about volunteering opportunities, how to donate to your favourite charity, visit our events diary page which lists charity events on the island and much much more!

Tearful bedtime story
It's a children's version of Marley and Me, the international best seller. I'd picked up the adult version and kept putting it down. I couldn't get into it, couldn't see how it had sold so many copies. But it's sold millions, so I obviously missed something.
The kiddie version of Marley appealed, Kieran loves dogs.
Together we met the naughty Labrador and heard how the poor thing obviously suffered from various phobias that his novice owners didn't understand. I winced at the references to choke chains and at John's happy discovery that kneeing the dog hard in the chest stopped him jumping up at people!
Bu despite these negative adult observations, Kieran (my 6 year old) was falling in love with naughty Marley. Every night he was more eager for the next installment.
With every night I was getting more and more worried about where we were going. Of course Marley got ever older and weaker.
By the way - if you have read the adult book, how annoyed were you at the poor old dog being packed off to the vets while they all went to Disneyland? I can't imagine anything more stressful for a dog than staying at the vets!
If you really love your dog you'd put non-essential trips away on hold when they're so near to the end. (I once missed out on going to a party at 10 Downing Street because my old doggie didn't like the dog sitter who I'd booked. I wouldn't have been able to enjoy myself for worrying about the poor old girl - she was on a hair trigger and if she got stressed she'd end up on a drip after losing copious amounts of blood - my car used to look like a meat wagon. The dog sitter had brought her own dog with her and Sally hated other dogs.)
Anyway I tried hiding the book when we got down to the last three chapters, but Kieran was insistent. He wanted to hear the ending.
It was hard to read it aloud. I think we both cried in equal measures - passing each other tissues and giving each other hugs.
I have too often cried into a beloved dogs' fur and felt that dull ache as the gentle loving eyes lose their sparkle so I was probably remembering all those times. But it was all new for Kieran.
I couldn't help recall my mum's death as I read to Kieran. The doctor's had turned up her morphine and stopped assisting with her breathing. It was inevitable she was going to slip away in the next few hours. I got to stroke her hair, and hold her hand and tell her how I felt about her, too. I don't think I'd connected all those bereavements before I read Marley to Kieran.
(I'm welling up again just thinking about it.)
This morning Kieran was still thinking about Marley. He is a gentle little fellow. He hugged our dogs extra hard and told them what great dogs they are. Words that John had whispered to Marley at the end.
Who'd have thought a kid's book could stir up so much emotion!

I cried buckets at the end of Marley & Me. Thank goodness it wasn't just me who was angry that they left him and went off to Disney! My dogs got extra hugs too. You do connect ot to your dogs - try watching the Disney film about Husky sled dogs 8 Below. One reviewer wrote it will make you promise your dog you'll never leave him again! My daughter (who NEVER cries at films) sobbed her way through it even before it got sad because she knew roughly what was coming! They love us just as much back though - if not more.

I was so glad when he wrote the kids' version of Marley & Me, because I wanted my kids to read the original for the humorous parts, but it had too much adult content in it for me to allow it.
John visited my younger son's school last spring and read from the kids' book, and told stories about how he came to be a writer. I got permission to sneak in the back door and watch him, and he was a terrific presenter.

The teenager in my house calls it "Snivel Porn" every time I pick up a copy of Marley (which I got for Christmas).
Then again, both he and my wife told me I was in danger of becoming an activist when I forced them to listen to paragraphs from Tom Lonsdale's "Raw Meaty Bones" (which also made me cry but for different reasons!)

My human is reading Marley & Me at the moment. Loving it. Only just got to the bit where the wild dad runs past the car. I'll keep the tissues on standby and prepare my kindest face and head-resting-on-knee-soft-eyes-feeling-your-pain stance. It's a winner every time and I may get an extra biscuit for it if I time it right.

I got a huge lump in my throat just now, reading your post Beverley.
I too felt angry at quite a few things in Marley & Me.
I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would. It seems to have had a lot of spin of course.
I think it would be more popular in America whre they don't treat dogs as well as most of us do. I don't think we understand the concept of dogs living outdoors or in a garage, let alone all the American terms I didn't fully understand.
I didn't realise there was a children's version. That's good.....too many children's books have happy endings. Life isn't like that.

I wept buckets too most of the way through Marley and Me. I;ve seen the children's version in Smiths so glad that you and K enjoyed it. Well, perhaps enjoyed isn't the right word! I can well imagine how choked up it made you both.

From my younger days I have been interested in nature as most of my schooling was in the rural areas of Karnataka which gave me an ideal setting to be with nature and appreciate its beauty. I started participating regularly in the tiger and elephant censuses conducted by the forest department and often trekked with my friends across wild and beautiful landscapes. These exciting experiences consolidated my interest and love for the wild.
After completing my graduation in Electronics Engineering from Bangalore University, I worked for a while in the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore and then worked as project engineer for a DST project in Karwar. But my passion for wildlife and adventure compelled me to change track and join the Centre for Wildlife Studies (CWS, Bangalore) in 2001, which gave me an opportunity to work in wildlife protected areas in Karnataka and exposed me to different scientific methods used in wildlife studies.
My association with NCF started in 2002 with my involvement in the rainforest restoration project and the human – elephant conflict studies initiated by Divya and Shankar Raman in Anamalais. After that exciting stint, I joined Madhusudan for a study on livestock impacts in Bandipur National park which gave me a chance to learn about the ways of the wild and enjoy the beauty of nature.
Presently, I manage the GIS facility at Mysore and provide GIS/RS support to most of the projects in NCF.

Landscape level conservation planning for elephants in Karnataka
- Book Chapter2016South Asia: India. In Snow leopards. Biodiversity of the world: conservation from genes to landscapes. Series editor: Philip J. Nyhus, Volume editors: Thomas McCarthy, David Mallon.Elsevier - Academic Press, Pages 457-469, ISBN: 978-0-12-802213-9Download
India has a rich natural history record from the Himalaya spanning over a century. In this paper we provide an overview of existing knowledge on snow leopard, especially from the more recent studies. A knowledge gap analysis revealed barely 3% of its range is relatively well studied, although snow leopards occur pervasively across ca. 100,000 km2 in the Indian Himalaya. Only 37% of its range appears to be 'good' habitat. Based on recent density estimates and their extrapolation over the range, India is likely to support about 500 snow leopards. Threats vary regionally, but livestock grazing by migratory herders and recent developmental pressures appear to be the most serious conservation issues threatening snow leopard and other wildlife in the snow leopard range. Given the pervasive snow leopard occurrence and human pressures, the general consensus and national strategy is to formulate and implement knowledge based, participatory programmes over large landscapes.

Karnataka state in southern India supports a globally significant—and the country's largest—population of the Asian elephant Elephas maximus. A reliable map of Asian elephant distribution and measures of spatial variation in their abundance, both vital needs for conservation and management action, are unavailable not only in Karnataka, but across its global range. Here, we use various data gathered between 2000 and 2015 to map the distribution of elephants in Karnataka at the scale of the smallest forest management unit, the 'beat', while also presenting data on elephant dung density for a subset of 'elephant beats.' Elephants occurred in 972 out of 2855 forest beats of Karnataka. Sixty percent of these 972 beats—and 55% of the forest habitat—lay outside notified protected areas (PAs), and included lands designated for agricultural production and human dwelling. While median elephant dung density inside protected areas was nearly thrice as much as outside, elephants routinely occurred in or used habitats outside PAs where human density, land fraction under cultivation, and the interface between human-dominated areas and forests were greater. Based on our data, it is clear that India's framework for elephant conservation— which legally protects the species wherever it occurs, but protects only some of its habitats—while being appropriate in furthering their conservation within PAs, seriously falters in situations where elephants reside in and/or seasonally use areas outside PAs. Attempts to further elephant conservation in production and dwelling areas have extracted high costs in human, elephant, material and monetary terms in Karnataka. In such settings, conservation planning exercises are necessary to determine where the needs of elephants—or humans—must take priority over the other, and to achieve that in a manner that is based not only on reliable scientific data but also on a process of public reasoning.
- Journal Article2014An elephantine challenge: human–elephant conflict distribution in the largest Asian elephant population, southern IndiaBiodiversity Conservation DOI 10.1007/s10531-014-0621-xDownload
Wildlife conservation is a complex issue especially when it involves large carnivores or mega-herbivores that are conflict-prone. Karnataka state in southern India is known to harbor high density of wild elephants. This conservation success story also has opportunity costs for communities living in close proximity to elephants. Despite the fact that human–elephant conflict is a serious conservation and social issue, there is little quantitative understanding of conflict especially over large areas. Here we conduct the first analysis of human–elephant conflict distribution, severity and explanatory factors over the entire state of Karnataka. We use data from the state forest department records on villages that experience conflict, compensation payments made by the government, elephant den- sities, forest cover and perimeter, and presence of physical barriers to mitigate elephant conflict. In total, 60,939 incidences of crop loss were reported and US$ 2.99 m paid in compensation during April 2008–March 2011. A total of 91 people were killed by ele- phants and 101 elephants died in retaliatory killings during the study period. A total of 9.4 % of the state's geographic area covering 25 of the 42 forest administrative divisions were affected. There was no significant difference in conflict incidences or compensation given between protected areas and non-protected areas. There was no correlation between conflict incidences/unit area and elephant density, forest cover, forest perimeter of pro- tected areas and presence of physical barriers. The results depict the importance of efficient management of physical barriers, conserving key habitat linkages, and acts as baseline data for future work.

Large mammals face high risks of anthropogenic extinction owing to their larger body mass and associated life history traits. Recent worldwide mammal declines have highlighted the conservation importance of effective assessments of trends in distribution and abundance of species. Yet reliable data depicting the nature and extent of changes in population parameters is sparse, primarily due to logistical problems in covering large areas and difficulties in obtaining reliable information at large spatial scales, particularly over time. We used key informant surveys to generate detection histories for 18 species of large mammals (body mass > 2 kg) at two points in time (present and 30 years ago) in the Southern subregion of the Western Ghats global biodiversity hotspot. Multiple-season occupancy models were used to assess temporal trends in occupancy, detectability and vital rates of extinction and colonization for each species. Our results show significant declines in distribution for large carnivores, the Asian elephant and endemic ungulates and primates. There is a significant decline in detectability for 16 species, which suggests a decline in their abundance. These patterns of change in distribution and abundance repeat in our assessments of spatial variation in occupancy dynamics between the three contiguous forest complexes and two human-dominated landscapes into which the southern Western Ghats has been fragmented. Extinction rates are highest in the human-dominated landscapes. Declines in abundance for several species suggest the presence of extinction debts, which may soon be repaid with imminent range contractions and subsequent species extinctions unless immediate remedial conservation measures are taken. Detection/non-detection surveys of key informants used in an occupancy modeling framework provide potential for rapid conservation status assessments of multiple species across large spatial scales over time.

The Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve, at the tri-junction of Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Karnataka, constitutes arguably one of the finest conservation landscapes in the global range of the tiger. We surveyed the southern part of this region, as well as the adjoining areas, to assess the status of large mammals both within and outside protected areas. Our field assessments suggest that large mammals are almost exclusively confined to protected areas with the few remaining populations outside under severe threat from habitat degradation and poaching. However, large stretches of contiguous forests still remain. We suggest the extension of the recently notified Mudumalai Tiger Reserve in Tamil Nadu such that connectivity is retained and strengthened with Biligiri Rangaswamy Temple Wildlife Sanctuary of Karnataka to the north-east and with Silent Valley National Park of Kerala to the south. We also provide suggestions on strengthening conservation in this landscape. The involvement of local communities in the establishment of the Siruvani Conservation Reserve in Kerala and Tamil Nadu, and Nilambur Conservation Reserve in Kerala, will bolster the conservation of large mammals in this landscape. With the suggested extension, Mudumalai Tiger Reserve has the potential of becoming arguably the finest habitat for tigers across Asia, given the variations in altitude, topography and climate which produce a diversity of vegetation types and consequently, provide the tiger with an assortment of prey ranging from Nilgiri Tahr in the high altitude montane grasslands to Blackbuck in the low-lying dry deciduous and thorn scrub forests.

Great weekend to finish of another solid week back at it. Got in all my hours with only one deviation for meteorological reasons.
Did a tempo set yesterday on the rollers, zones seem to be dialed. Solid workout, lower end of the power zone but higher end of the cadence range. Re-viewed the Adjustment Bureau, Ill be crushing some PG tempo in no time.
Fueled up at Loobies for dinner where the waitress now knows my "usual" greatest eatery ever.
Got in a great MTB ride today, route displayed in picture form below. Headed out early(by AWI standards) then met up with Jer and Spak (wont embarrass the softies for bailing) for a nice jaunt, hitting all the good climbs & dh's even if it was contary to popular opinion.
After dropping the short course riders off at the cars I headed further south to sugar bush and the 7/8th line trails, a fair bit more snow than Copeland. I hit "Glassfords stump" which I thought was going to end my ride but managed a trailside fix to keep going.
5 hours later rolled back into town. Thanks to Jer for my early x-mas gift some super high calorie sugar waffers which I demolished on the ride.
"Well we can go down the berms or the 5th line descent?"

"I don't know, the 5th might be sketchy today"

The continuous development of highly sensitive clinical imaging increased the detection of focal lesions of the liver. These accidentally detected liver tumors without liver-specific symptoms such as cholestasis have been named "incidentalomas." Diagnostic tools such as sonography, computed tomography, or magnetic resonance imaging are used increasingly in asymptomatic individuals without defined suspected diagnoses in the setting of general prevention or followup after a history of malignancy. But despite continuous improvement of diagnostics, some doubt regarding the benign or malign behavior of a tumor remains. In case an asymptomatic hemangioma or FNH can be preoperatively detected with certainty, the indication for surgery must be very strict. In case of symptomatic liver lesions surgical resection should only be indicated with tumor-specific symptoms. In the remaining cases of benign lesions of the liver, a "watch and wait" strategy is recommended. In case of uncertain diagnosis, especially in patients with positive history of a malignant tumor or the suspected diagnosis of hepatocellular adenoma, surgical resection is indicated. Due to the continuous improvement of surgical techniques, liver resection should be done in the laparoscopic technique. Laparoscopic surgery has lower morbidity and shorter hospitalization than open technique.

Events in Samoa in 2010 centred on the economy. Repairs of the damage caused by the 2009 tsunami continued apace, and tourism, aided by significant tax incentives, recovered quickly. The government actively promoted agriculture and fisheries to increase export earnings, reduce import costs, and improve Samoans' health. Samoa also explored the possibility of establishing a tuna loining plant and casinos. Prime Minister Tuila'epa Sailele Malielegaoi sought an extension of Samoa's least-developed-country (LDC) status, on the grounds that the economy remained vulnerable to natural hazards and that a graduation to developing-country status would preclude Samoa from receiving the level of aid currently available to LDCs. In September the UN agreed to extend Samoa's LDC status until the end of 2013.
In other news the government, under pressure from established churches that felt threatened by challenges from new evangelical denominations, established a commission to reexamine the freedom of religion provision in the constitution. The previous year's change to driving on the left side of the road led to growth in vehicle ownership, as expatriate Samoans in New Zealand and Australia were able to buy cheaper right-hand-drive vehicles for relatives in Samoa. Samoans began to experience unprecedented rush-hour traffic congestion in the Apia area.

An underground methane gas explosion has killed up to 18 miners at a coal pit in northern Russia.
Rescue workers said they had brought ten bodies to the surface so far at the Vorkutinskaya mine, owned by large Russian steel company Severstal.
Around 250 people had been at the pit at the time of the blast, about 800m below the surface, but most had escaped or been rescued, government officials said.
The explosion is likely to renew concerns about safety at Russia's ageing pits, where accidents are common, often because of such explosions, negligence or a failure to follow safety regulations.
The Interior Ministry put the death toll at 18, but the Emergencies Ministry said 16 had been killed and the fate of two others was not known.
The explosion was also a blow to Severstal, whose shares fell 2.2% in Moscow afterwards.
The blast, which affected only one of the mine's walls, is not expected to greatly affect output, which is approximately 1m tonnes a year.
A mine blast killed 110 people in the coal-mining region of Kemerevo in 2007 and another explosion in the same region in 2010 killed more than 60.
Russia's federal Investigative Committee said it had opened an investigation to check whether there had been any safety violations at the Vorkutinskaya mine, which has been in operation since 1973.

The Plaza de Constitucion is the central square to the village of Jimena de la Frontera, one of the more attractive " white villages " in the south of Spain. The towns folk also know the Plaza as El Paseo , and is generally used as a meeting point and for the staging of films, musical,theatrical, and other such events throughout the year. The central feature is the remains of the tower of the Church of Santa Maria de La Coronada, the rest being demolished soon after the second world war. The backdrop to the village are the ruined remains of Jimena castle dating back to the Roman times, from where there are stunning views across the countryside towards Casares and Gibraltar.

Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Maryland
what happens when your legal fees for a civil suit, exceed the amount of
the suit especially when your case has been postponed twice and has not
been heard in court? i.e. the attorney fees amount to $8,000+ and your
civil suit is around $9,000. with no guarantee that you will win even when
the case is heard by a judge?
1 Answer from Attorneys
Legal fees should be considered before starting any litigation as it is not always cost effective to sue, even if you win. In the majority of cases, each side pays for their own attorney fees, no matter who wins. In a few types of cases, attorneys fees must be paid by the losing party.
It rarely makes sense to pay 100% of anticipated recovery in attorney fees, unless there is a fee-shifting statute or contract that changes the general rule that each party pays its own fees. Parties are strongly encouraged to consider the cost effectiveness of any litigation before starting or continuing a lawsuit.
While I hope the above general legal information helps, it doesn't substitute for talking with your own attorney about your particular situation.

Although Rockstar Games has not yet officially revealed the date, Amazon has let it slip. GTA V will hit the PS3 and the Xbox 360 on June 19th, on the very edge of the publisher's promised "Spring" release date.
Was hoping for end of April or early May. Will wait for official release date. June is nearly summer.
I hope this isnt true since i was hoping for an April release date. June is so far away :/
It's not confirmed until Rockstar confirms it, sorry but I'm not buying it.

Like any good workout, the Knife began Monday's stop of the "Shaking the Habitual" tour at Denver's Fillmore Auditorium with pre-show calisthenics. An in-drag trainer/preacher with a full beard and glitter led the thousands in the crowd through DEEP Aerobics — prepping the audience for a physical and mental workout to follow. After a good stretch, the Knife worked to re-establish what many would consider a contemporary musical performance. Those expecting to see a traditional electronic, pop, or rock show instead were given something closer to an aggregated art show — more fitting in a museum than the Fillmore.
Throughout the pre-show warm-up fans danced and repeated in unison such weighty lines like, "I am still alive and I am not afraid to die!" Once the music began, there was often, as in the song "Bird" from the group's self-titled debut album, the fury of a neon favela afire with live percussion and lighting, set against haunting vocals. Put music, dance, theater and poetry in a cauldron and heat it 'till it boils.
Of course, art, like anything personal, is necessarily political, and The Knife does not try to compromise this reality. "What we do is political," they say through unidentified voices on their website's "interview" page. "That should be impossible to misunderstand. (We) don't think there is a difference between what you do as an artist and what you do privately."
Their music tries to ask what a protest song sounds like in the 21st century. Following the feminist tradition that influenced them, they try to transcend gender in both their appearance and approach, wearing matching blue vinyl jumpsuits, painted faces and performing in choreographed movements. Gone are the masks they used to wear: "It felt too safe behind the masks," they add in the interview. "Something that was meant to question identity and fame became a commercial product."
The group appeared on stage as dark figures framed in fog. Their original instruments included drumming tubes, a giant table bass that was played with both a bow and mallets, and an array of handheld percussion instruments. Almost every member of the 11-piece band played an instrument, sang and danced at various intervals. Highlights from the setlist included:
• "Raging Lung": The sound of the bowed table bass, combined with live drums and droning vocals, drew out the dub-style tempo and offered the feeling of submerging and surfacing in the song. It served to remind you that the music is not always about creating a dance rhythm.
• "One Hit": A battle between dance lines, with each side charging each other to the chorus, "One hit/one kiss," and eventually facing and charging the audience, as well.
• "Full of Fire": Comical, Devo-like arm movements; a spoken word with the verse, "I want a body that, no matter how dead it seems, always wakes up clawing!"; a nod to Salt-N-Pepa's "Let's Talk About Sex" as sung, "Let's talk about gender, baby/Let's talk about you and me."
• "Stay Out Here": Multiple singers above a repetitive drum beat carried the song influenced by the Occupy Movement. The rhythm produced one of the only moments of the night when the electronic overwhelmed the live.
• "Silent Shout": The dance version, whipping the capacity crowd to a froth. At song's end, the group encouraged the crowd to stick around for the hour-long D.J. dance set that was to follow (most of them did), then said goodnight.
With that, aligning with their collective credo, they faded back into the fog on stage as silhouettes.
After experiencing such a spectacle, and knowing what a different kind of spectacle most of the music industry is, you couldn't help hoping The Knife finds a way to keep its swirl of identities, its "masks," from ever growing safe. A performance of this scale is rare. And, it wakes us to the fact that not only is art far from irrelevant, but in the form of The Knife, we can be reminded again of its force.

Recently the British mannequin manufacturer Rootstein debuted its latest male form — the "Homme Nouveau." Feminized and less beefy, with a 35-inch chest and a 27-inch waist, it has led some to suggest that the change in design is a direct response to the growing number of metrosexuals. This term was coined by the British writer Mark Simpson, who in 1994 wrote about a trend among heterosexual men to care deeply about their outward appearance and how it pertained to their lifestyle. The reality is that many gay men have such an irrational preoccupation with their appearance that it borders on dysmorphism.
Body dysmorphism is a medical term used to define an anxiety disorder in which the affected person is so obsessed with their looks and body image that it often interferes with daily life, creating anxiety and depression. The result is a compulsive concern over the slightest defect in one's appearance. This can lead to intense dieting, grueling workouts, and multiple attempts to correct one's appearance with cosmetic procedures.
It is not known exactly what causes body dysmorphic disorder. Experts believe life experiences and culture may contribute to the disorder, as may long-term psychological or physical abuse. Researchers say factors that seem to put some people at higher risk include low self-esteem, a history of abuse, and sensitivity to social pressures to conform to images seen in the media.
In 2008, I wrote about manorexia, a growing trend of eating disorders in the XY chromosome world. Anorexia and bulimia are increasing among many of my patients, particularly gay men. In 1990 men made up 10% of the population with an eating disorder. Now they make up 25%. Eating disorders are linked to poor self-image and depression. Often depressed patients rely on extreme measures like cosmetic procedures, anabolic steroids, excessive dieting, and overexercising to mask the pain. These measures can become addictive, and these individuals are often dissatisfied with the results. That's because they are focusing on the external instead of concentrating on the underlying issues.
Of course, good nutrition and exercise are healthy ways to maintain your appearance. Relying on drastic measures, however, will only exacerbate depression. If you feel you or someone you know has symptoms consistent with body dysmorphism, seek help from a doctor.

Sure in theory. If your car is worth 20k to "dealerships" and you only owes 10k, trade it in for another car that's 10k out the door... But in reality, probably not likely.

By Ron

I have had the Artograph Designer Projector for ten years and I just recently burned a projection 250 watt bulb and I could not find one to replace until I found out that Dick Blick carried the bulb. The price of the bulb was reasonable so I bought two bulbs. I use the projector to help out with murals.

Returning product
By BellaArtista
from WY
I ordered this product to help reduce drawing time and increase painting time. Though it does project an image in a dark room, the lens is difficult to focus; there is no easy way to fine tune as the lens tube turns stiffly and is jerky. The projected picture is not fully focused- by this I mean that one section of the photo will be crystal clear, while other areas are blurry. An intermediate compromise between crystal and blurry can be achieved, but areas of fine detail are lost throughout. Placing the picture to be projected is not a quick process as it takes time to level the projected image as well as find the sweet spot where the light can illuminate the image best. If using images printed on inkjet- they will curl if not taped down because the clips do not hold securely and mask portions of a 4"x6" image. This is most likely a satisfactory projector for someone who just needs to create an elementary sketch.

Great Projector/Bad Bulb
By Spider
from Ellensburg, WA.
This is a great projector. The images it projects are razor sharp and crystal clear, it stays nice and cool from the fan. I use this to project on walls for murals, and to reduce or enlarge drawings to fit exact specifications of customers. The ONLY bad thing about this projector is the bulb. Two days after getting the projector the bulb blew out. Thank God they sell 250w light bulbs in my town. So, if you can't get 250w bulbs where you live you better stock up on them, because they DO NOT last 25 hrs. as discribed, they only last 1 min. to 3 hrs. max.
These quality projectors from Artograph are available in two formats; one for horizontal projection and one for vertical. Learn more about the features of these projectors and see how they work.

September ended up warmer than usual and despite some rain it was drier than normal.
Clinton area weather observer Jim Blaess says the month ended up four degrees above the overall average at 69-degrees compared to the normal of 65. It ended tied for the 8th warmest September in records to 1879.
There were two record highs set during the month. Blaess says the 98-degrees on September 9th broke the record for that date of 97 set in 1912 and tied in 1933. The 97 on the 10th broke the record for the date of 96 set in 1931. Blaess says that was the first back-to-back record highs in September since 1953 when records were set on the 28th and 29th.
There were two other days with highs in the 90's and Blaess says that is the first time there were four days of 90 or above weather in September since 1985.
For the season of May through September Blaess reported 15 days of 90 or above temperatures and that is the normal for the season.
In another indication of the warm weather, Blaess said the lowest temperature was 45 on the 14th and 29th and that was tied for the fourth warmest overnight low in September since 1891.
Blaess recorded about 2.4 inches of rain during the month and that's about six-tenths of inch below normal with five days with measurable precipitation.
For first nine months of the year, Blaess says there has been about 26.5 inches of precipitation and that is a little more than an inch below the normal.
For October, the Clinton weather observer says you can expect about 2.7 inches of precipitation and that includes and average of one-tenth of an inch of snow.
Temperatures on October 1st include and average high of 70 and average low of 47 and by the end of the month those drop to averages of 57 and 38.

Ohio did not require deaths to be reported until 1867 hence no death
certificate. You might try local church records and cemetery records.
Have you located Benniah on the 1850 census? Did the wife remarry soon? If
not you might try poor house/county home records. Anyway, try and locate
the family on the 1860 census.

Having moved recently to a house wired only with telephone copper, my family and I are now into our fourth week without an internet connection. It's a really frustrating way to learn just how dependent we've become on the net.
For one thing, we don't own a printed telephone directory, and our only street map of greater Stockholm is in the car. We can't do on-line banking, and we can't mail-order stuff. I can read email on my smartphone, but my wife's going nuts over being cut off. And simple information searching — woah, I miss Wikipedia five times a day. Suddenly we have to use our printed cooking books again.
I can't work from home as my files are all on a DAV server elsewhere. As for recreation, I guess as a blogger and habitual forum denizen I'm also the hardest-hit family member. Junior's adapted well, installing my old Dungeon Keeper CD on our PC instead of gaming on-line. Good thing we haven't allowed him to take up WoW, or I suppose he'd refuse to leave his mom's place for more than a few hours at a time. Anyway, everyboy's been knocked flat by the flu, except for myself who took a shot for it, thank Dawkins.
I can't understand why, in this day and age, a DSL connection still apparently requires the manual intervention of a technician in the local phone station. The advertised wait is several weeks! After ordering the service, I got the modem in days, but it's useless before the rewiring's been done. And of course there's been the holidays.
Oh well, I'm having plenty of time to unpack and get our new place organised. And read books. Only I'm running out of them and would like to order a few on-line…

COINTELPRO (Counter Intelligence Programs) was a domestic surveillance branch of the Federal Bureau of Investigation that secretly investigated and disrupted the activities of groups and individuals it classified as subversive during the 1950s and 1960s. COINTELPRO employed questionable tactics in "neutralizing" anti-war and civil rights groups and American citizens. COINTELPRO's activities were uncovered by a Senate investigation of the FBI and the programs were disbanded in 1971.

* Prices may differ from that shown
Most computers have ways of connecting to other devices, be those ways via a cable that you tend to always trip over or using the less dangerous ways of wireless devices. But there is another way that computers can connect with other devices, such as mobile phones (or cell phones depending where you're from), and also a way that mobile phones can connect with each other, but it's the PC connecting that I am talking about today.
Anyway, most modern day PC's have this capability of connecting to other device, not just via wires or wirelessly, but also via something that is registered as 'Bluetooth', which is not something found inside a blue whales mouth, nor is it a form of gum disease that can't be fought with traditional antibiotics. It is in fact a simple way of using 'radio waves' in order to send data from one device to another at close range.
As I said, most computers these days are fitted with Bluetooth technology and once used, with the initial set up being the most irritating part, it is an easy, if a little unsafe, way to transfer data.
But for those PC's that do not have inbuilt Bluetooth technology, maybe some of those older modals, then don't despair, there are little devices out there that can be slotted into you PC so that you can use this technology that has a strange name. ( I mean, 'Bluetooth', who on earth came up with that name? why blue? And why tooth? What were these people drinking that night? Bluetooth vodka???)
In fact, this happened to me, not the vodka drinking, name suggesting road to nowhere, I mean that I have an old PC that has not got the built in Bluetooth technology so when it came to trying to connect to a mobile phone via this method it was impossible. That was until I went out a bought a tiny little device that slotted into a USB port on that PC and opened up the simple method of data transfer.
This little device is in fact call the Kensington Bluetooth USB Micro Adapter, and when it say micro it really does mean micro, to a certain extent anyway.
Firstly, let me tell you a little about this device, what it looks like and what it does...
It looks like a the end of a broken USB connector that some one has stuck a piece of black plastic too. In fact it is only 14mm x 19mm 0.5mm. Now that is small in anyone's books. The ends, or edges, of the black plastic end, the only part that sticks out of the USB port, there are a couple of parts that help get a finger grip on it for when you want to pull this out of the PC.
As I said, it connects to a PC via any standard USB port, using 2.0 or even older version of 1.1 as well.
It has a data transfer rate of up to 3Mbps and uses the old fashioned 2.4GHz frequency band.
It works on any PC using windows OS XP or later, even running perfectly well on windows 7, (although I've not tried it on 8 as yet? And am not able to say whether it can be used with Mac either).
What about setting it up..?
This is a simple matter of ripping this out of the finger slicing, scissor damaging plastic casing that it was trapped inside and slotting it into any spare USB port on your PC. I used one at the rear as this is so small it can stay in place without being in the way of anything at all.
Then, once inserted, just let it do it's business in finding and installing the drivers that it needs to run. It's best to have an active internet connection here but if you haven't then simply slot the little disc into your disc drive and the drivers will be found on there.
Once it has found and installed the driver it is then a matter of 'connecting' what ever devices to you PC using the Bluetooth method.
This is done by following the simple to understand on screen instructions and how ever your particular OS tells you to allow the connections.
That's it.
Once you've 'paired' devices to the PC you don't have to pair them again, unless you 'unpair' them, and you them simple select which device you want to send data to from the list of paired devices, as long at all devices have there Bluetooth' switched on.
My opinion...
I use this device on my old PC that hasn't got that Bluetooth capability, it was either this or buying and fitting an internal adapter/card which would have been more trouble than it was worth, and as I only use Bluetooth on the odd occasions I couldn't justify the time and hassle that stripping my PC to fit the adapter/card would have involved. So I went for this external, yet rather nifty device.
It's speeds aren't as fast as those built in ones, in fact it's like the old tortoise and hare tale, only this time the tortoise doesn't win. But it gets the data that I need transferring transferred in a reasonable time, especially as most of the time the data is only in small packages.
I have tried larger packages which can take some time but they do eventually get there so there's no hassles of getting to 99% and then getting cut off. Which we all find annoying don't we?
The package transfer is quite safe, only connecting and transferring to device that you want to have your important stuff on, using a number password to 'pair' up the devices that you want to transfer data between, recognising them by the names of those particular devices.
The adapter itself is tiny and when it's actually in the USB port there's only the little black plastic end that is visible, with the Kensington name etched onto it.. In fact, it is designed in such a way that it almost looks like part of the computer itself, covering the USB port in a non-intrusive manner.
What more can I tell you about this little wonder?
Not a lot really as it does exactly what it is supposed to do, albeit at a slightly slower pace than a 'wireless' transfer.
It connects up in minutes and, once slotted into place, it stays connected until your data has been transferred.
So what about the cost of this Bluetooth device?
Well, this adapter sells for around the £12.00 mark which is good value for money indeed for what this little beauty offers.
If you have a PC that doesn't have inbuilt Bluetooth technology and you want to transfer data to your mobile phone or the like then this is the way to go.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course. Having had my work role change recently and thrown into Access with no prior knowledge, this course has definitely given me the confidence to move forward.
The trainer was very friendly and accommodating to the group. He was very knowledgeable and made the course interesting. I liked the way he linked what he was training us on to what we actually do.
I'm looking forward to the intermediate course and would definitely recommend this course to anyone.

A MONTH before September's Ryder Cup heads for Gleneagles, some of the biggest names in the competition's proud history will descend on County Durham. Mark James, Gordon Brand Jnr, Costantino Rocca and Manuel Pinero are among Team Europe's former players likely to be heading for the second English Senior Open held at Rockliffe Hall.
The timing of this year's rerun of last October's success story on the Hurworth course should guarantee even greater numbers in terms of spectator attendance. The Bank Holiday weekend in August (22-24), sandwiched between the SSE Scottish Senior Open and Travis Perkins Masters, should also secure a couple more high profile golfers.
European Tour chiefs have taken notice of the venue, which has often been described as capable of hosting the Ryder Cup in the future, and its ability to deliver last year's event with just six weeks noticed has led to even greater expectations this time around.
Loading article content
The search is ongoing for a sponsor, which will determine the size of the prize purse on offer, but the hopes are for an even greater buzz than six months ago just four weeks before the Ryder Cup arrives at Gleneagles.
"There's no doubt we will have former Ryder Cup golfers here and there could be even more than we would initially be expecting," said European Senior Tour's managing director Andy Stubbs. "You just have to think of all the guys we have on Tour already like Sam Torrance and Mark James to know there will be plenty here at Rockliffe that week.
"We have names like Ronan Rafferty, Brand Jnr, Barry Lane, Manuel Pinero and Antonio Garrido ... all these guys have played Ryder Cup. Then you have former captains, like Mark James and they will all be thinking who has qualified who has not qualified for this year's Ryder Cup. It will be a good chance for fans to get in their ear to see what they think building up to it this year's Ryder Cup.
"There is even a chance Monty (Colin Montgomerie) could be here in August, but we will just have to see. He has been over playing in America. He recently shot a 62 over in the States and he will be back to defend at Woburn the week after Rockliffe. It will just be a case of where he is the week before. Hopefully he will be."
Good weather will clearly benefit Rockliffe in terms of walk-up numbers over the three-day tournament in August, while acquiring a sponsor could determine whether the English Senior Open returns for further years. Provided the finance can be found, there is also no reason to believe that a main European Tour event cannot make an appearance in County Durham in the not too distant future.
Stubbs, who made an overnight visit this week to Rockliffe to launch the English Senior Open 2014, said: "The course will be set at around 7,000 yards for the senior guys, so it's capable of adding a further 7-800 behind that with different tees. We will see in August just how good a facility it is. Even last October we saw how it would suit our needs. "There's no doubt you could have a regular Tour event here at Rockliffe Hall, what that comes down to is a sponsor. We do have a number of UK events for Senior Tour, but in the European Tour there is only one in England if you don't think about the Open Championship. You just have to find a sponsor to host and a venue, Rockliffe could do that easily."
Rockliffe's chairman Warwick Brindle has been exploring different avenues in the hope of coming up with a sponsor and he has enlisted the help of the events team at Stockton Council, who have previous experience of preparing for the Seve Trophy's visit to The Wynyard Club in 2005.
Brindle was pleased with the 5,000-plus turn-out in October and expects more in the height of the summer. He said: "We hope it will be even busier. We are pretty sure all the international players will be here again and maybe a few more.
"Golf-wise it is a build up to the Ryder Cup. We are hopeful we will get really support from the public. We got it last year. We are looking for a bumper weekend. Mark James will definitely be coming again, there is something like eight ex-Ryder Cup players involved. They don't want to announce the big names until they are sure, though. " Derbyshire's Paul Wesselingh, the 2013 winner of the Senior Tour Order of Merit, finished fifth at Rockliffe Hall in October but thinks the North-East has a jewel capable of long term success.
He said: "The course is superb. It is so well presented. The feedback we got from all the players afterwards was that it was all wonderful. The winning score from Steen Tinning was 17 under for a three round event which was phenomenal.
"That score is testament to the course and how well we were looked after. I am looking to defend the Order of Merit trophy this year. There are a lot of good players coming on this year and the standard will be high, but it should be a great year and it will be great to be back at Rockliffe."

I am using opensvn as my svn repository server, but since I have my own server with enough space and bandwidth, I'd like to know if it's possible to setup svn on it. Anyone knows how?
Thank you
Of course.
Step 1 - Set up a unix box. Step 2 - Set up apache, webdav (apache module), SVN, Trac on your box. Step 3 - Check everything out of OpenSVN Step 4 - Check everything into your SVN.
I believe your versions will get reset to 1. I've never heard of OpenSVN but it looks just like what I set up at home and work.
I need to ask my server company to do it for me, or can I do it manually from the FTP?
You can't install the SVN server over an FTP connection - you'll need to ssh in and have superuser privs. It's probably best to ask the server company if they can do this.
Yea. I will email them tomorrow. Thanks all.

Mike Matthews – Verified Straight Shooter – Practice what you preach.
When you hit the beach this summer, are you going to turn heads, or turn stomachs? Okay, maybe a little dramatic, but seriously, summer is only a few months away, and you don't want to be that guy playing beach volleyball with his shirt on. Fortunately, it's not too late. You have time to get shredded for summer, but you need to do it right, and you need to start right now. Let's get to it.
Here's a simple little fact most guys want to avoid: If you want to get big and strong, you have to lift heavy weights. Muscle grows in response to increased tension within the muscle. In order to keep stimulating growth, you have to keep increasing the tension caused by lifting that is, you have to keep adding weight to the bar. I think Ronnie Coleman said it best!
Ideal rep ranges are a never-ending debate, and I don't want to waste your time summarizing the many views on the subject, so I'll just cut to the chase. If you're not on steroids, working in the 12-15 rep range for 20-30 sets per workout is only going to lead to overtraining. Forget supersets. Forget drop sets. Forget giant sets. It's time to follow Professor Coleman's words of wisdom, and lift some heavy ass weight. What does that mean, exactly? Well, here's what I want you to do: Warm up, and then lift in the 4-6 rep range with weights at about 80% of your 1RM. Once you hit 6 reps, add 5 lbs if you're working with dumbbells, and 10 lbs if you're working with a barbell, and carry on. Work with that new weight until you can do 6 reps, and move up again. I know forum warriors will cry bloody murder and say you can't grow for shit working in this rep range…but they're wrong. Research has shown that this is the ideal rep range for increasing strength (and I think we all know what happens to muscles as they get stronger), and through my work, I've been fortunate enough to work with hundreds of guys that have made startling gains in both strength and size working exclusively in this rep range.
Machines suck simply because they don't stimulate muscle growth like free weights do. If you want to maximize your muscle growth leading up to the summer, then you need to keep your hands off the machines, and on the barbells and dumbbells. If you want to build a big chest, then you'd better be bench pressing. (And not on the Smith Machine.) If you want legs, then you'd better be squatting (and again, no Smith machine allowed). If you want a big back everything, then you'd better be deadlifting. Heavy ass free weights only until summer. Hoorah.
Long, low intensity cardio sessions tend to negatively impact muscle growth and burn relatively few calories, thus rendering them ineffective in helping with fat loss. Studies such as those conducted by Laval University, East Tennessee State University, Baylor College of Medicine, and the University of New South Wales have shown that shorter, high intensity sessions, however, not only cause less muscle breakdown than low intensity, steady-state cardio, but they burn more calories and stimulate more fat loss. Simply put, HIIT is the SHIT. Har har har. And it's really simple.
Here's how it works:
- 1. You start your workout with 2-3 minutes of low intensity warmup.
- 2. You then go allout, as fast as possible, for 30-60 seconds (depending on your conditioning).
- 3. You then slow it down to a low intensity recovery period for 30-60 seconds (again depending on your conditioning).
- 4. You repeat this cycle of allout and recovery for 20-30 minutes.
- 5. You take 2-3 minutes to cool down at a low intensity.
You can apply the HIIT style to any type of cardio that you would normally do. You can head outside and walk and sprint, or you can hop on the elliptical trainer or recumbent bike to get it done.
Chances are you're going to need to shed some body fat to be shredded for the summer. Just like lifting heavy ass weights makes you bigger and stronger, burning fat is equally simple: Consume less energy (calories) than your body expends each day, and it will burn fat to make up for the deficit.
This requires three simple steps: first, determining how much to eat every day; second, creating
a meal plan that meets those needs; and third, sticking to it. How Much You Should Be Eating Every Day Here's a very simple guideline for eating to lose weight, based on the Katch McArdle formula.
Every day, eat the following:
- 1.2 grams of protein per pound of body weight
- 1 gram of carbs per pound of body weight
- 1 gram of fats per 5 pounds of body weight
(In case you're wondering, I'm not a fan of lowcarb diets, because carbs help you lift heavy ass weights, which in turn helps you maintain your muscle while cutting.)
Creating Your Meal Plan
Take your numbers, head on over to CalorieKing, and create a day's worth of food that meets your targets. If you want to use a free app to track everything, I recommend MyFitnessPal.
I don't care what you eat so long as you don't eat too little or too much every day. Try to be within 100 calories of your target (and for calculation purposes, protein and carbs are 4 calories per gram, and fats are 9 per gram).
Download a couple recent meal plans of mine if you want to get some ideas.
Sticking To It
Follow that meal plan every day and exercise 3-5 days per week, and you will lose weight. Or cheat a bunch and be fat this summer. Up to you.
Well, maybe this shouldn't be a MUST, but it's worth mentioning. While you certainly don't NEED any supplements to lose weight, there are a handful that can help.
Ingesting caffeine before exercise increases fat mobilization. Big surprise. The amount you should take depends on your tolerance. If you're not a regular caffeine user, 150-200mg will get you pretty pumped. If you are, it might take upwards of 400-500 mg to feel anything.
Conjugated linoleic acid, or CLA, is an essential fatty acid that occurs naturally in dairy products and meats. Research has shown that supplementation with CLA helps reduce body fat and prevent weight gain, and also helps preserve muscle by lessening the catabolic effect of training on muscle protein. Like any truly helpful fat loss supplement, CLA is no wonder product, but it does give a little boost to your fat loss regimen. According to the CLA studies cited above, dosages of 3-7 grams per day are most effective. You should spread this out over three servings (one with breakfast, lunch, and dinner).
Green Tea Extract
Green tea extract is an herbal product derived from green tea leaves. It contains a large amount of a substance known as a "catechins," which are responsible for many of tea's health benefits.
One of these benefits relates to weight loss. Acute supplementation with GTE accelerates exercise induced fat loss, and can help reduce abdominal fat, in particular. Based on the studies cited above, you want to take 600-900 mg. of catechins per day to realize their weight loss benefits. The average GTE product contains about 150 mg of catechins per pill.
If you TLDRd my entire article to check the summary, here it is…
To get shredded by the summer, you must:
- Lift heavy shit.
- Stay off the machines.
- Do HIIT cardio.
- Stick to a proper meal plan.
- Take the right supplements.
You have three months. The fly honeys are waiting. Fuark.
