Just a FYI in regards to:
"... Secondly, if the BLM-1 runs out of juice, you can't use an off-the-shelf battery to get you through the day. ..."
True there's not an direct off-the-shelf battery, but there is the Olympus Battery Holder (PS-LBH1 W) which takes three CR 123A batteries.
Have one as a backup for E-500 and C-8080.

CNN's Don Lemon never misses an opportunity to say something unprofessional. On Tuesday afternoon, after the Brown family press conference, Lemon told Chris Cuomo what was really behind the violence in Ferguson: "And they aren't the people who are out there causing the commotion every day. It is a lot of the times here bloggers and people who are trying to make a name for themselves."
Lemon was talking to Cuomo about a disturbance during the press conference when, according to agitator Al Sharpton, he was confronted by a blogger. Mr. Lemon took that as an opportunity to launch a tirade against all bloggers.
OK, so here's the thing that people at home should understand. So there is this outrage that everyone thinks is out there. Most of that outrage is coming from the Internet and social media. When you actually come here on the ground and the people who are actual protesters and who are upset, most of them peaceful. They have a beef and they are being peaceful about it. And they aren't the people who are out there causing the commotion every day. It is a lot of the times here bloggers and people who are trying to make a name for themselves. People who want you to follow them on Twitter; or follow their blog; or follow them on Livestream.
So when we came in, we were confronted by a blogger; when the Rev. Al Sharpton came in, we were confronted by a blogger for questions that had nothing to do with the situation here about personal issues, or whatever. It has nothing to do with anything — not respectful of the situation. So they come in, they stick a camera in your face: 'Do you want to comment about this, what do you have to say about that.' And, what do you do?
Thankfully Lemon did not suggest that Sharpton avoid bloggers by "biting down" as he recently suggested to one of Bill Cosby's accusers as a method of avoiding rape.

text: Hi guys New here. UK based couple looking for future breeding based on strong opinions about natural selection, chemistry and animal instinct. Black men are physically superior. more testosterone, more muscular, more athletic and generally larger. Usually they are more fertile and studies have shown that a woman is 400% more likely to orgasm with a black man. The female orgasm is designed to "suck" cum into the uterus and black men are therefore more capable and able to fertilise women. Interracial sex is a beautiful thing and all white women should mate with black men to ensure the next generation is strong and dominant. we should remember that we are animals. Marriage, jealousy, taboo, culture.... all this is no match for chemistry and biology. A woman should have mates competing for her, she should have several men mating with her and nature will decide who wins. As a white man i accept that in a contest with a black lover i would not win. He would claim her womb and thats just nature. Anyway, it would be good to hear from you all.

Sunday Social Hour
Half the fun of social media operations is the fact that the platforms are continuously evolving, and often breaking along the way. "Notes," the application we use to import content to Facebook, has gotten a facelift to mixed reaction. While it looks great and works _ok_, it still doesn't update in a timely fashion; fortunately we've discovered the manual override to that.
As commenters mourned the loss of Charles Crump, the Rev. Lauren Stanley piped in: "Somehow, I don't think he's going to rest in peace. I think that instead, he's gonna organize heaven!"
To Elizabeth Kaeton's observations on Priests-in-Charge, reader Bill Kindel points out an advantage of holding that position over that of interim rector:
I'm a Priest-in-Charge of a small, but reasonably healthy parish that chose not to take a year out to search for a Rector. My 3-year agreement expires next spring, by which time the parish and I will have discerned a call (or not) for me to become the next Rector. For many parishes, this "try before you buy" approach works quite well; in this diocese, about 80% of Priests-in-Charge are ultimately installed as Rectors.
The healthy parish PIC is a recent development, from what I can tell. When I was an overactive layman in another diocese, Priests-in-Charge were primarily used to help parishes work out major issues before they could consider performing a search. Interim Rectors are usually ineligible to be considered by the search, but Priest-in-Charge may be.
Twitter, on the other hand, now has a "who to follow" interface that includes the ability to see who among your friends is following a particular stream, and I've been making a point of following some of you back (many of whom I thought the Cafe was already following). That said, we get more traction out of your retweets and follow-friday recommendations than anything, and very much appreciate all of them.
And for Twitter fun, @Liturgy is collecting pewsheet (bulletin) bloopers.

The 1986 Cavalier was ordered Oct. 3, but since then the salesman has given three different dates for assembly. Finally, he said the car was ``on constraint due to less than normal demand.``
On constraint? ``Yes, the computer determined that not all the parts were on hand to build the car, so assembly couldn`t be started.`` The standard transmission and the extra-wide tires weren`t available, he said, though both are standard equipment.

Jennifer Lopez is just like us, y'all! The singer, actress and mother of twins, Max and Emme, admits in a new interview that she is no superwoman and relies on a lot of help with raising her kids.
At the People's Choice Awards last night, she opened up about juggling her career(s!) and her twins, "I take it one day at a time — I have a lot of help."
She continued, "I don't claim to be Superwoman and do it all by myself. But I love what I do. I love my kids, and they come first, and everything else falls into place after that. I take it one day at a time, trying to do the best I can." Spoken like a truly dedicated mama!
Jennifer had a great night at the Awards show, taking home the People's Choice Award for favorite TV crime drama actress for her role on Shades of Blue.
Congrats to J-Lo!

5:2 Diet Thread! Number 8, fast away fast away fast away all!(1000 Posts)
The continuing thread for those of us following either the 5:2 diet or the alternate-day fasting diet. Both are two versions of Intermittent Fasting, which you can read more about here.
The 5:2 diet was featured on Horizon in August 2012, and essentially requires you to fast for 2 non-consecutive days per week. The other 5 days, you can eat what you like. Alternate-day fasting is just how it sounds; you fast every other day. By "fasting", we mean that we keep our calorie consumption very low, around 500 calories on average, on those days.
I know a number of people lurk on this thread, as this is currently quite popular. Please just jump in and post if you're new- we won't bite. Well, maybe on a fast day. You'll find a lot of support here.
Here is a list of links to get you started with this way of eating. Please let us know if you find a new article or some other information online:
First things first, here are links to some of our previous threads: most recent one before that another one etc!
Another thread which breadandwine has started is a good resource for some of the links and tips that get lost in these big threads. In addition to sharing links, we try to condense some of our top tips for fasting there. Keep in mind, we all do this differently, so these are just tips, not rules.
frenchfancy has a recipe thread over here, please post any low-calorie recipes there so they don't get lost in these bigger threads!
Here is the link to the BBC article regarding Michael Mosley's findings, which was featured on Horizon.
Here is where I would link to the aforementioned Horizon programme, but it appears as if the BBC have finally noticed it on YouTube and have taken it down. Here is a link to the programme's page on iPlayer, which features a couple of clips, and might have updates eventually. Let us know if you find another site hosting it.
A blog post here gives some of the scientific explanation for why this way of eating helps you to not only lose weight, but improve your all-around health.
A Telegraph article which comments on the diet and gives a brief overview.
A study discussed here gives commentary specifically addressing the effect of this diet on obese people (both men and women), with regard to both health and weight loss. ("After 8 weeks of treatment, participants had an average 12.5 lbs reduction in body weight and a 4 cm decrease in waist circumference. Total fat mass declined by about 12 lbs while lean body mass remained relatively constant.) it also mentions "Plasma adiponectin, a protein hormone that is elevated in obesity and associated with heart disease, dropped by 30%. As did LDL cholesterol (25%) and triglycerides (32%).")
Important link if you are currently your ideal BMI: this appears to suggest the benefits for women at a lower BMI might not be seeing the same health benefits that are found on men at their ideal BMI.
And for those already fasting, here is a link to 100 snacks under 100 calories. We tend to favour lots of hot drinks during the day (count your milk if you use it!)
Another food link, here is a link to the BBC Good Food site, with a list of low-calorie soups.
We mentioned BMR and TDEE often. Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) quantifies the number of calories you burn in a day. This measure is best estimated by scaling your Basal Metabolic Rate to your level of activity. TDEE is critical in tailoring your nutrition plan to desired fitness goals. Here is a link to a calculator to help you figure out how many calories you should be eating in a day. (This is a new calculator to previous threads, this one seems to give me approximately the same results the last one did, but without the virus warnings on my browser!)
A BIG THANK YOU to all who have been contributing, btw. Most of us are learning this way of eating as we go along. All of the links above have been posted by others in our previous threads, and they've been very helpful. Sorry if I haven't given credit where it's due, but it was just enough of a job getting all the links re-copied and back into one post.
Come join us, and tell us about your experiences with this diet!
dontcallmehon well you look fab on the Halloween photo if that's theone you mean - great waistline! .

Was fasting today (and yesterday) and started ok , but went to see new grandson Marcus (who is obviously the most beautiful baby ever ) and had celebratory G&T and chilli doritos on the boat back home and then several glasses of white since!!! ..
OMG dontcallmehon - does she know you in rl because I don't see how she could come to that conclusion based on that picture! That kind of comment is annoying.
@ GEandN
Congrats Laska - would be just wrong not to wet the baby's head!
That's great news laska. You absolutely have to wet the baby's head.
I'm another 2 lbs down so 37 in total. Really pleased but have definitely made up my mind to move to 5:2. I'm also going to try & stop using mfp which I have to say I've been using as a bit of a crutch. It'll be interesting to see if I carry on with weight loss when not using mfp. We shall see.
Dontcallmehon - I think you look fabulous on that Halloween photo. If you have lost a further 7lb since then though,I would say you don't need to lose any more weight in my opinion. But I expect that the nasty comment was actually from someone who is just jealous
Laska - congratulations!
Last week of 4:3 for me this year, with xmas next week and then dropping to 5:2 in the new year, maybe taking on breadandwines suggestion for my two fasts to work out a maintenance plan. I think this will be the first new years resolution in 10 years that won't include 'lose weight' I feel tremendous about that. Although maybe it's more daunting as I actually want to start running and getting fit in 2013. It's going to be a good year,I can feel it
37lbs aftereights that is totally amazing..is that all onthe 5:" or some before? anyway whatever.. well ,well done to you ..
rachelblythe fantastic to you also.. my NWR will only be to lose less than 7lbs I think, which is also amazing to me.. Im just hoping to STS over the festive season and drop the last few 'wiggle room' lbs after I just want to be under 10st .(10.2 now) which is I think slim enough for me - being 5.6 and a little older . Scrawny Grans are not on I think , but slim ones (like me now) are fine!
Evening all. Dontcallmehon you look GREAT in that photo...the 'sticks and stones' saying springs to mind.
Congratulations Laska, does that make me a Great Uncle?!?!
Fast day here, was pretty hard especially early on but got through it and feel A LOT better after 3 days of pre-Christmas excess. Got to agree with those saying the aim now has switched to not doing too much damage over the next 3 weeks or so. And then hopefully using DrMMs book to kick start the new year and get back into a rhythm
Wonderful news Laska. Many congratulations to your family.
DontcallmeHon - take no notice. You look fabulous and confident in your photo.
Thanks guys, I appreciate the lovely comments. I am not going to lose too much weight now, but I love this way of eating and I'm not going to stop completely. Someone referred to me as 'delicate' looking the other day . I have never in my entire adult life been referred to as 'delicate!' I was quite happy with that .
Congratulations, Laksa - what lovely lovely news!
A lady in M & S approached me today to ask me the name of my son, as her daughter has just had a boy and is stuck for a name. She thought my son looked like a lovely boy, so wanted to know his name. Unfortunately he chose that moment to run off, but it was a nice thing to say. I am really looking forward to grandchildren when my time comes
Have lost this weight purely doing this WOE. Just worked out that still have 47 lbs to go to reach my target weight . but I can actually see me achieving that on this WOE
ignore rude comments - you look slim and toned. the right way to aim for.
aftereights you'll be ok, it can be done.. i've lost 20 on this WOE but 50 overall.. also Cyclistist has lost around 5 stone i think .
Bro.. yes it does but only if you also agree that he is the most beautiful great nephew ever,.(you can trust me ..or do I need to put up another photo?)
dontcallme hon it's jealously of course .. you do look great ..
Congrats Laska that's fab news!! Is he the first baby to make you a Gran?
dontcallme you look fab, there will always be someone looking to make themselves feel better by making you feel worse
GreenEggs I'm afraid I'm never intentionally that funny. But well done me
Mid afternoon here, getting a bit shakey and hungry but about to head into soft play with DD which serves excellent coffee and will occupy me til I pick up DS, have dinner with the kids then bath and bed them. DH working late tonight but it's been almost 2 weeks since I exercised so have booked a babysitter early as a treat so I can have coffee and book time alone before yoga
and someone else can put the blighters to bed
Dr MM's book is now available for pre order from Amazon at £5.99 arriving 10th January.
Congratulations Laska
dontcallme you look georgeous.
I feel crap today, I've got a stinking cold and we've got a major project that has to be finished this week so I'm likely to be working til after 10pm every night. I put off yesterday's fast to today as I didn't feel up to it. Don't feel like it today either but I need to do it to make sure christmas does end in total disaster. I can't face January having to lose weight I've already lost once.
I'm normally organised with meals on fast days but I have nothing sorted for tonight, no time to cook and no time to go shopping either. Will probably end up with beans on toast.
I love beans on toast ff. Have pre ordered mike Mosley book. Have to really if only as a thank you to him for revolutionising the way I eat.
The most important things I've learnt is that it's ok to feel hungry, you don't need to keep eating to keep your energy levels up, & you will not fade away from hunger! But the most important thing I've learnt is that I do not NEED 3 meals a day.
Marking a spot on this thread, so I can educate myself about 5:2.
With a target of 13kg to lose in 2013, and a determination not to gain over the festive season I'm inspired by the success on here. DH wants to shift a few kg also - and this seems relatively easy to fit into our lives.
Will read up on the links over the next couple of days .... and likely have a few questions
Well then Laska that's official then he's the most beautiful baby in the world. Well done on the weight loss Afteeightsareallmine, I reckon you'll be surprised how quickly you achieve that target in the new year. And we've all now got the tools to keep healthy long term rather than just for a year or two...
Welcome DistantShip and good luck on your journey :-) .
Thanks for the heads up Virgonposter just about to get onto Amazon and reserve my my copy.
Have a great day all :-)
<Dipping toes cautiously into water>
I've lurked on and off for a while now and followed the plan
halfheartedly for a short time dropping a couple of pounds (for those of you interested, they've stayed off, despite my return to bad habits) but feeling a bit podgy and bloated.
So want to give it a proper go. As long as I can eat Xmas and Boxing Day, I should be able to cover the festivities so.......can I join?
Hi all, just did my first fast day, got a bit hungry around the 20hr mark but persevered and ate my full 500 cals at dinner. My question is, I am also currently doing Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred, should i exercise on the days i am fasting or not? Oh and I am 176cm tall and weigh 98kgs currently - I was 121kgs so I have lost a lot, but still have a lot to go.
Thanks Bec
Welcome who & bec. Bec that is an amazing weight loss. Well done its so doable on this WOE. I love the fact you can pig out if you want & not feel guilty. Can't help on exercise I'm afraid I do absolutely nothing!
bec just try and see how it goes. I exercise in the mornings generally anyway- so pre-breakfast- and have found it totally doable. It used to be tough on the days after a fast but even that is getting easier. Also, sometimes it helps to exercise towards the end of a fast day, to take your mind off eating and also because all those endorphins work to suppress apettite.
Hope that helps!
Or appetite even.

Have you noticed that there have been a lot of commercials about electric cars lately? Do you think that electric cars are really the answer to our energy issues and reliance on fossil fuels? I started to think about the process associated with electric vehicles and did some simple research. Following are some simple points to consider.
First let's look at the manufacturing process. Vehicle part…

Buccaneers part ways with K Connor Barth in advance of Saturday's 53-man deadline
TAMPA, Fla. — With the Tampa Bay Buccaneers beginning cuts to reach the 53-man roster limit by late Saturday afternoon, they chose youth over experience in parting ways with veteran kicker Connor Barth.
Barth was one of three players released Friday, along with offensive lineman Jamon Meredith and defensive end Larry English. Barth, who played in 56 games with the Bucs from 2009 to 2012, made 91 of 110 field-goal attempts in his Tampa Bay career. His best year came in 2011, when he made 26 of 28 tries, a 92.9 percent success rate. The move means Tampa Bay is going with rookie kicker Patrick Murray, 23, a versatile undrafted free agent from Fordham who was 2 of 2 with his field-goal attempts in the preseason and averaged 45 yards on two punts.
Barth, 28, missed all of last season because of a torn Achilles in his right foot sustained during a charity basketball game in July 2013. He was expected to kick this season without lingering effects of the injury.
"Every year, there are difficult decisions that need to be made during this time of year as we get down to our 53-man roster," Bucs coach Lovie Smith said in a statement. "We appreciate everything Connor has done for the Buccaneers on and off the field over these past five years, but this decision was based on the best interests of our team moving forward."
Just want to say thanks to @TBBuccaneers and to all the fans and my teammates for the best 5 years of my life! It's been a hell of a ride!
— Connor Barth (@contbarth) August 29, 2014
Meanwhile, Meredith's fall was noticeable. He started at right guard in the preseason opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Aug. 8, but his time at the spot was short-lived. The sixth-year player was demoted from the job to backup tackle after quarterback Josh McCown was harassed in the Bucs' loss, in part because of Meredith's struggles.
In addition to the departures of Barth, Meredith and English, the 16th overall pick by the San Diego Chargers in 2009 who was trying to win a roster spot after being signed Aug. 14, the Bucs waived the following players: defensive back Marc Anthony, linebacker Nate Askew, tackle Edawn Coughman, cornerback Kip Edwards, defensive end T.J. Fatinikun, cornerback Anthony Gaitor, linebacker Ka'Lial Glaud, cornerback Keith Lewis, offensive lineman Andrew Miller, fullback Lonnie Pryor and offensive lineman Jeremiah Warren.
The Bucs' roster stands at 61 players. They must make eight more cuts before 4 p.m. Saturday.

I must have missed your post in that thread, but I think you're still an outlier.
What do you think caused the difference? Do you think there were actually different ingredients, or was the package damaged or something?
I'd just like to clarify something before going on subscription.
If you decide, for some reason or another, to permanently cancel your subscription, is there any attempt at a monetary penalization to recoup the discount you'd be receiving? Basically, will I have to pay back that 15% difference?
I'm not PLANNING on cancelling by any stretch. I've just burned myself on a few gym membership and cellphone plan cancellations over the years.
Nope. I actually cancel and reactivate rather than pause and I haven't been penalized yet.
I initially contacted customer service about not getting my shipping info within 48 hours like promised when I ordered. I also asked some other questions. My questions were answered, and I was again promised shipping info within 48 hours. I was quite pleased with the customer service.
Unfortunately, the shipping information didn't come within 48 hours. You guys must've been backed up, which is fine, but I wish I would have been told about how long the wait could be. Instead I was expected information on my shipping in 48 hours that took about 10 days to receive, and now it's another 2 days to get my order. Again, not bad, but I wish I would've known and this is an opportunity for improvement of your system.
Another thing that would've improved my experience is telling me what kind of shipping I was going to receive. Maybe it was somewhere in the fine print I didn't see, but it should be more obvious then. I didn't know if it would take 2 weeks to ship, 2 days to ship, or ship overnight. All would've been acceptable to me, and I am pleased with 2-day shipping. Still, it would've been nice to know, especially when I'm trying to plan on buying food and eating around my shipment arrival. The lack of knowledge was more inconvenient than any "bad" information I could've received.
tl;dr: My first subscription order went pretty smoothly. It took about 6 days from order to delivery (for most of that time the order wasn't tracked by FedEx). I haven't opened any of the new 1.5 pouches yet (I have a couple days of 1.4 left). The pouches look a bit crumpled and scratched up. I hope they aren't being mishandled in the warehouse. As far as I can tell, they are all still sealed.
I decided to delete a bunch of other boring stuff/speculation and just leave the above summary. For anyone who cares, my order was delivered from Bloomington, CA and it's lot number is L5147. Google says the from address belongs to Network Global Logistics.
I have been receiving a subscription of Soylent for several months now and everything has been great but I could do without the paper release notes in every week of Soylent. It seems very wasteful to me and would greatly appreciate the ability to reduce or eliminate the extra waste.
I've been enjoying my 1.5. So I just got the shipping notification email for my next month worth of Soylent and it says v1.4. Is that a mistake? Are they actually shipping me the older 1.4? Or is that just a typo in the email? I guess I could just wait and see what actually arrives. However, I really like 1.5 and don't want to go back to 1.4 so if it actually is 1.4 then I'll be disappointed. I've replied to the shipping notification email but have not heard back yet.
No worries; they are shipping v1.5. Once RL starts shipping a version, they don't ship anymore past iterations.
Wow.. They're really cranking this stuff out.. My 1.5 arrived about 10 days before yours and it was L5099.
I just signed up for a trial of Soylent and found out they scammed me into a subscription. I expected more from this company. I ordered a seven day supply to try the product and they took my credit card and used it for something I did not agree to, an ongoing subscription. I don't even see how to change it without canceling my order. Anybody else supervised about this deceptive practice?
To answer your question, it is not a deceptive business practice based upon the two above points.
Also, if all else fails, customer service (at email@example.com) can take care of you or your order. (or further help canceling your order)
I just did a one time on another order for my son and it still says the your next order will be billed in August?
I can wait and see what happens but it is not clear. A one time order should not tell you when you will be billed next.
Hmm, that is weird. I have only ever made subscription purchases, so I am not sure. I would email email@example.com to clarify perhaps.
And a mistake, either on the user end or the website's end, does not validate accusing the company of scamming you.
Like @inquirerer posted, just email firstname.lastname@example.com.
Don't forget to especially complain that they didn't charge you enough for a one time order. A subscription costs less per order and can be cancelled at any time, so those rapscallions found a sneaky way of saving you money without your permission!
Actually, it does. If this user actually clicked on the one-time payment (which this user clearly believes they did) and the system put it as a subscription, it's perfectly reasonable to call accuse it of being a scam. Other users may not realize it happened to them, and there can actually be issues that arise such as overdrafting from an unexpected charge. Charging someone monthly for something they only agree to one time on does fall into the scam/fraudulent category whether it's intended or not. I have absolutely no issue with the way @TGW explained their issue.
And you have no problem with igniting pointless controversies in every thread you visit.
On the front page in bold, "Monthly Subscription". The button you then click says "Subscribe". Then when you click the "Subscribe" button, the next page says "Each month we'll send you ...".
It's quite obviously a "Subscription", which means a repeating charge.
All you have to do is cancel the subscription you say you inadvertently got, before the next billing in August. And all that's happened is you got a one-time order at a discounted subscription price.
This user is stating that they hit the one-time payment and it still subscribed.
I really think this was uncalled for. Accidental or not, it's through their system. The user felt s/he was paying for the one-time purchase and got put on a subscription. Assuming that is accurate, it is not on this user or any of us to assume that Rosa Labs simply had an accident. It's our job to hold them accountable to get it fixed, not matter what the reason is, and that will protect us if they ever tried to do something like this on purpose (but I stress it is most likely either user error or accidental system error). But still, I did not start this discussion and I don't think me defending someone who brought this issue to attention should get me attacked for "igniting pointless controversies". Are we not allowed to ever be critical of Rosa Labs? This discussion has a point and I didn't even start it, so your post is inflammatory.

Washington (CNN) — Four Democratic senators called on Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Tuesday to reconsider the recent changes in its privacy settings and asked the Federal Trade Commission to streamline guidelines regarding privacy on all social networks.
"Now, users have less control over private information, and it was done without the users' permission," Sen. Charles Schumer, D-New York, said on Capitol Hill.
Schumer and Sens. Michael Bennet of Colorado, Mark Begich of Alaska and Al Franken of Minnesota sent a letter to Zuckerberg about Facebook's decision to allow third-party sharing of users' information.
"We are writing to express our concern regarding recent changes to the Facebook privacy policy and the use of personal data on third party websites," the senators wrote. "The expansion of Facebook — both in the number of users and applications — raises new concerns for users who want to maintain control over their information." Read the rest of this entry »

State Inquiry Commission to Investigate Israel's Water Crisis
Israeli desalinization capacity is now less than a third of the amount set by the cabinet in 2002.
The Knesset State Control Committee decided Monday to establish a state commission of inquiry into the serious water crisis facing Israel. The committee will look at the failure to implement the recommendations of a series of professional committees and cabinet resolutions aimed at addressing the water situation over the years. The commission will also be asked to draft short- and long-term recommendations to ensure a regular supply of water to the public.
According to the resolution passed Monday, five members of the State Control Committee are to draft a mandate for the commission and submit it by Wednesday. Committee members involved in the draft include committee chairman Zevulun Orlev, who sponsored the move to establish the commission.
"The water crisis is not a decree from heaven but an act of man," Orlev said. "Most of it stems from serious failures by successive Israeli governments, which gave priority to immediate economic considerations oand thereby prevented the necessary investments in establishing desalinization plants, rehabilitation of aquifers and wells, an effective [water] savings plan and recycling wastewater," said Orlev.
"The water crisis has reached a low that represents a concrete and immediate dangers to the ability to supply drinking water, as well as water for agriculture and industry. I hope the state commission of inquiry will act as urgently as the matter requires and present recommendations that can be implemented immediately," Orlev said.
State Comptroller Micha Lindenstrauss supported the establishment of the commission of inquiry, and by law his support is required for its creation.
The Minister for National Infrastructures, Benjamin Ben-Eliezer, also supported setting up the commission. He called the present crisis the worst ever in Israeli history. "Not only am I not opposed to establishing the state commission of inquiry for the state's failure in supplying the demand for desalinated water, I insist that the commission be established, and [that it] explain to everyone what a small group of officials, no matter how talented they may be, were capable of doing to an entire country. I insist that the comission be established and first investigate the actions of the Infrastructures Ministry over the years, including those of my term as minister," Ben-Eliezer told the committee.
"I want the commission to determine who is at fault and why, since the officials change but the concept remains," he added.
The last national water crisis, which ended in 2002, was supposed to have left Israel better equipped to deal with the next crisis. It led the cabinet to decide for the first time to establish large-scale desalinization plants and raised hopes for promoting water savings activities that could reduce household water use by at least 10 percent.
Today, Israeli desalinization capacity is less than a third of the amount set by the cabinet at the end of the last water crisis, mostly due to a slowdown in preparing tenders and in planning after a few years of relatively high rainfall. The water-saving activites were stopped completely and were resumed, but at an unsatisfactory slow pace, only in the last two years.

With the correct attitude to being open to learning, not just new ideas but actually about "how" you think. You can move from the reactive knee jerk responses made by the vast majority of those in business to a higher, more competent level of awareness.
You clearly wont become a master in four hours or twenty as some suggest in the field of skill acquisition but you can make steady solid progress by mastering the basics. In around eight weeks you can learn the art of making mindful decisions. And from these modest beginnings and with practice you will move to a different, more effective level of thinking.
You become your own scientist as to what is working and what is not. You move from the fog of uncertainty, gaining greater clarity about the next vital steps. Once you have experienced even the smallest of breakthroughs you will have enough emotional stickiness to stay with it until having breakthroughs in your business becomes a well formed sequential habit. It is a bit of a cliché, but true success really does become a habit.
Donald Trump lost millions, but he mastered emotional resilience and consequently he was able to make his fortune all over again, this time even bigger!
What are typical business problems? Essentially a mindset of lack! Not enough money, not enough time and not enough new business clients!
Let us see if you can relate to this scenario. Young successful general sales manager helped take the company from £1 million turnover to £3 million has a falling out with the company and decides to strike out on his own. A friend generously gives him £2,000 as a gift to help him on his way.
Initially the business took off and for the first six months he was in dreamland, sales and profits rocketed. Then new legislation changed the rules of the game and instead of adapting to the new circumstances he endured the very painful experience of liquidation.
Whilst his skill set on direct sales was very high. He had not all mastered the money game. He was to succumb to the mindset of not enough money. He allowed it to cripple his creativity and was unable to see a way out.
He was to fail twice more and each time learned the hard way. He learnt that we all have twenty four hours in a day. It is how we invest those hours, and not get distracted answering emails or doing trivial tasks. Mindfulness was not even on his radar screen!
The last lesson he learned was to get help. And learn how to transform from a plastic people pleaser to an authentic business coach. Fully understanding that the game of life is not about "getting" but "giving". This was in the main my twenty year apprenticeship in striving, definitely not thriving and not living with joyful passion. I was that young man. It would be true to say I learned a great deal during this period of trials and tribulations.
The Solution Experience: The Radical Paradigm Shift
The tipping point is usually a crisis. Steven Covey, author of Seven Habits Of Successful People was reported to ask potential new business clients who had requested his support, "Are you in pain?" If they said no, he suggested they were not yet ready for the kind of radical change which he advocated.
He argued that a crisis put us in a place where we drop the "know-
Relationship Mastery & Emotional Intelligence
To be successful and enjoy the ride you have to take 100% ownership of you emotions. Each emotional "hot spot" has enormous potential & power for your breakthrough to success.
Emotional Intelligence is not luxury that can be dispensed with in tough
times it is a basic tool that, deployed with finesse, is key to professional success.
Harvard Business Review 2003
Beyond Ego and Limits!
In Robert Fritz's groundbreaking book, The Path of Least Resistance he lays out clearly why so many people fail at goal setting. We have at a subconscious level conflicting goals. Losing weight and hunger being the easiest to recognise the dynamic of the "push" and "pull".
He argues that we must first find the transcendent Self. This should be the fundamental goal. My own view is that this is the most exciting aspect of deep change, from being weak and being bounced around by external circumstances, to the slow but gradual realisation that your are in fact all powerful.
This is not in the sense of lording it over over people, but rather the certain knowledge that you are not a victim in any sense and can respond appropriately in any given situation.
Money Mastery
Without question this can be one of the biggest hurdles facing entrepreneurs. You are by nature a risk taker, you have a strong inner drive to be autonomous. Yet great conflict arises because you think you are being asked to sell you soul! Gaining victory over this misconception is one of the huge milestones for entrepreneurs.
Forming Success Habits
Neuroscience has shown us that we can virtually re-
Mindset Maven
The word Maven first appeared on my radar screen some years back, reading Malcolm Gladwell's book, The Tipping Point. There are some who seem to have almost a pathological need to share information. That's a good fit for me, whenever I personally have a breakthrough, I have a passion to share it. The idea being that they have a breakthroughs too.
So I now see myself as a Mindset Maven, helping entrepreneurs have breakthrough solutions. This is the raison de être for the School of Mastery for Entrepreneurs. When I founded it in 2004 after some extraordinary experiences in Germany where I worked for twenty years.
Mastering Transformation
All great entrepreneurs took a crisis and transformed it into a success story. One such amazing book "Who Says Elephants Can't Dance: Leading a Great Enterprise Through Dramatic Change" chronicles how Lou Gersteners brought IBM from the brink of insolvency and pulled off one of the greatest business turnarounds in history.
Now, you may not be running an IBM or even close to it. However, my own view is that the principles of turnarounds are exactly he same for small SME's as well as a big players like IBM. When you are faced with a crisis you are forced to take action. Understanding the dynamics of crisis will be the critical difference in your strategy and the speed of your turnaround.

We are 2 adults and 2 children of 14 and 13 years. We will be visiting Paris for the first time.
We have booked at Rue des Ecoles in 5th arrondissement.
We will be staying for 4 days/5 nights.
Need some advice for :
1. How to reach Charles de Gaulle airport? - I have read that the cheapest way is to travel by RER B line. Do children need tickets or they travel free?
2. Want to visit Eiffel Tower all the way to the top? What is the ticket to be bought? Is it reachable by foot from where we are staying or should we used metro to reach? Name of metro station?
3. We want to go one day to Versaiiles. Can we club it with some other attraction?
5. Can someone advise us what attractions we can club together. Yes, we would like to go to Louvre but not to any of the other museums. Also, we do not want to go to Disney.
6. Lastly some names of restaurants close by nothing fancy but places that serve good portions meals. Names of some grocery stores close by would help.

1. reach CDG? You mean reach Paris from CDG? Taxi/arranged pickup/RER. RER info is at the airport site www.aeroportsdeparis.fr/en/passengers/access/paris-charles-de-gaulle/public-transport. Ok, RER is the cheapest, but it will not bring you to your accommodation. Is it ok? Children 4 yrs and above need ticket. Above 11 yrs pay adult price.
2. Eiffel tower ticket info? They have a web site for this http://www.toureiffel.paris/en/preparing-your-visit/rates-and-visiting-conditions.html. Reaching Eiffel tower from your accommodation? Reachable by foot? I don't know your criteria for what is reachable by foot. Even if your accommodation is closest part of Rue des Écoles it is still about 2 miles. Look at a map, for example, Google map and turn on "transit".
3. Club Versailles visit with other attractions? Perhaps in Paris after you return, but I am not sure you realize how enormous Versailles is.
6. Good portion meals? I am curious how others answer this one. I didn't think "good portion meals" was the forte of French restaurants.
Report Abuse
Greg provided some good basic information and I do think you may benefit from doing some guidebook research for your attraction planning. The guidebooks usually list metro stops as well, and maybe the attraction's website for additional information (such as hours, admission, etc.) as those can change (metro stops usually don't).
Consider purchasing a paper (or tangible, not electronic) map of Paris (just about every bookstore should have one), which will help you plot along routes and plan your attractions. They usually list metro stops on the maps as well.
If you want suggestions for attractions, it would be helpful if you provide more information regarding your interests. And I agree with Greg, Versailles will likely take an entire day, if not for navigating through the crowds in addition to seeing the palace.
Also, when are you going? If for example, the summer may impact your schedules with the popularity with the tourists. And if you go in August, for example, some restaurants may be closed.
"Good portioned meals?" Huh? I'm lost. Europeans typically have smaller-portioned than North American restaurants, but I don't want to assume you're North American to fully gauge my answer.
Report Abuse
Europeans usually eat smaller portions than Americans but they eat more courses.
Look on the blackboards which are universal outside restaurants, particularly at lunch, and you will see the words "formule" and "plat de jour." A "plat de jour" is a daily special, one plate. A "formule" is a 2 course (main plus appetizer OR dessert) or 3 course (main plus appetizer AND dessert) meal. These are generally a good deal. They sound expensive sometimes, but what you see is what you pay: the price includes all taxes and tip.
Now the hard part. What we call a "menu" is called a "carte". What they call a menu is an alternative for "formule." You may see "Menu €13" or "formule €13". If you ask for the menu, they will be waiting for you to tell them what courses you want.
You can ask for the carte, but the kinds of places we are talking about are very busy at lunch. You should make up your mind what you want from the board outside BEFORE you go in. If you don't know French food terms, you can no doubt find them on the Internet. The waiter will not have time to explain what each dish is and what goes into it.
Drinks: water is free, but you have to ask for a a "carafe d'eau". They might have milk for the kids, but I have never seen it in a cafe. Soft drinks are generally outrageous. People do not drink coffee along with their meals as Americans do in the Midwest, and good luck trying to get any. So have a glass (or small pitcher) of house wine or stick with water.
Every bakery will have sandwiches at lunch, as you will see from the lines out the door. They are usually excellent and a good deal. Though many parks prohibit picnics on the grass, you can find a bench. Many museums have cafeterias where you can point to what you want; some also have fine dining.
You will have a great time!

I think you are worrying about some things too much, like having to know names of grocery stores, etc. Just look around your hotel when you arrive, you'll find something.
I can name one place with good portion meals, the chain of steak places named Relais d'Entrecote. They give seconds on anything if you want it (meat and French fries, anyway). I really like that place. It's not super cheap, of course, but reasonable for what you get. I go to the one in Montparnasse, but there is also one near St Germain church which would perhaps be closer to that location.
As a word of advice, it would help to actually say where the location is, not just giving a street as many streets in all cities can be very long. If you are at one end of it, a close grocery store won't be close to the other end. Rue des Ecoles is perhaps 10 blocks long (about 800 meters), running E-W from bd St Michel to the university at Jussieu.
I wouldn't combine Versailles with anything major that day, it will take up most of the daytime. If you only want to go to the Louvre and no other museum, the Paris museum pass does include attractions also, you can check it out. It's pretty expensive, though, and the kids will get in free many places, so probably not worth it.
Actually, the pedestrian area near the Seine on rue de la Huchette, etc., has a lot of cheap restaurants that you may find suitable for you family. Kids probably won't mind them and they are definitely casual.
Report Abuse
With a menu/formule, you can choose an entree and plat (starter and main dish)--if you are still hungry, head out to Amorino for gelato. There are a number of them in Paris.
Note: Entree in France is a starter unlike in USA where it is a main course. The main course in a formula is called the plat.
And take the time before you go to learn a little French. While you will enjoy Paris in any event, a little French goes a long way toward making your visit more fun. You don't need much...just the basics...and learn the customs of greeting people before asking for something, saying please and thank you, and saying au revoir when leaving.

It might take an hour to walk to Eiffel Tower from your neighborhood. I'd jump on the 87 bus as it goes west on Boul St-Germain; the line terminates at Champ de Mars. Alternately, you could take #10 Metro towards Boulogne, get off at La Motte-Picquet stop. Emerge, look around, and there you are.
Possibly by "good portions meals" you don't really mean you just want a lot of food for your money. We found gyros and other mediterranean fast food places in the Latin Quarter, like Maison de Gyros, give you good value.

PS: you might find that you enjoy spending that day in Paris more than a day at Versailles.

We've just come home from a trip that included 5 days in Paris with an 11 yr old.
We found the metro very easy to use. You can buy a 3 or 5 day travel card that can be used as often as you like or you can buy books of 10 metro tickets. We used the 3 day option and it was great. You can buy these from ticket booths at the train stations. The metro map is very easy to follow.
We bought tickets to a behind the scenes tour of the Eiffel Tower through Viator. It didn't cost much more than the cost of going up the tower and it enabled us to skip the queue. I highly recommend it. Also, if you want to see the Eiffel from a distance ( or at night when it lights up and sparkles), take the metro to the Trocadero station and view from across the lawn. It's spectacular!
The RER train from CDG will cost you 40 Euro for the 4 of you. You can book a shared shuttle for about 55 that will take you to your door and you won't have to worry about lugging your bags on the train.

I don't think I ever heard of a 3 or 5 day travel card isold by RATP ..only the 1-week (Mon-Sun) "card" that I have loaded onto my Navigo card.
Is this something new?

Kwaussie is probably referring to the tourist transportation pass, the Paris Visite. It does come in 3 or 5 day versions and RATP sells it.
It would be cheaper to just buy daily transportation all inclusive Mobilis tickets than the Paris Visite, even for 5 days. I think the Paris Visite can actually work out for chlidren as they have reduced rates and there is no reduced rate Navigo (or Mobilis) for tourist children.

In any case, nobody goes hungry in Paris, but we are all taking wild shots in the dark without knowing what you think is a reasonable price for a meal. For some people, it is less than 20€ per person and for others it is 50€.

I don't know what the card was called but it just covered the metro, it was not a Paris Visite. It worked out cheaper for us because there was a reduced rate for our son, and it was so easy to just jump on and off the trains.
Everywhere we ate served 'good' portions. There's food priced to suit all budgets and menus are displayed in the windows.

Thanks all for your valuable inputs. We have booked at Hotel Familia.
I am struggling to book Eiffel Tower tickets to the summit but all our dates are unavailable.
If we go and stand in the queues will we be allowed to get in? My kids are very keen to go to the top and they will surely be very disappointed.
Also is there a rate difference between buying tickets online in advance v/s standing in the queue?
Also do you recommend that I buy tickets for Louvre and Versailles online? Is there any discount if the tickets are bought online?
Frankly speaking I am not very familiar with google maps. Can someone recommend the metro / RER station close by, if any.
Also, recommend any local markets nearby.

Maybe you bought a "Mobilis" ticket?
The Mobilis ticket allows unlimited travel between the beginning of transport service in the morning until midnight, over the course of one day. Mobilis tickets are also available for longer periods.
It's a very good option for people who will be going in and out of different Metro stations all day, which would require separate tickets.
The Mobilis ticket also allows people to ride on any bus line, going in any direction, transferring from one line to another, and you can even hop on and off the same lines as many times as you want to.
If you want to use the same Mobilis ticket to transfer from Bus to Metro, you can do that too.
The only restrictions are these:
You might sign and date each ticket before use.
You must validate the ticket each time you get on Bus or Metro.
Travel must be completed by midnight.
You must be able to produce your validated ticket if asked by a transport agent.
Some people love this option - some are afraid they'll lose the ticket.

Closest Metro to Hotel Familia is Cardinal Lemoine on line 10 -- about a 2 minute walk.
Jussieu (lines 7 and 10) is a 4 minute walk.

Hope this helps.

For Eiffel Tower tickets I would advise that you show up at 08h30 to 09h00 to preferably the East pier which is likely to have the shortest lines as it is farther from the métro/RER stations. Purchase tickets to the summit which I believe cost 15€ each and hope for the best.

We've never purchased tickets online to the Eiffel Tower and the wait has never been all that bad, maybe 35 minutes at the most.
Last June, our grandkids, around the same age as your children, enjoyed sailing small boats (rented there) on the pond at the Luxembourg Gardens. They also enjoyed Notre Dame. We went inside first (the line to get in was long but moved very quickly), had hot dogs in baguettes at one of the cafes outside the Notre Dame, then to the Gardens. You can hop on the Metro or walk. Any route you take between Notre Dame and the Luxembourg Gardens will be interesting--probably the most direct route is along the boulevard Saint Michel and takes about 20 minutes, depending on how fast you walk. The Gardens close at dusk, I believe.

Reasonably priced chocolate brand names? Do you mean a chocolatier, or the packaged brands you see in the grocery stores? Our family had lots of fun doing both. Walk into every chocolate shop you see, look at the display, and let everyone try one piece. Walk into a grocery store, and check out the chocolate (or cookie) aisle, and buy one you've never tried. It's really simple. No need to prepare for this level of detail.
Don't know about sports stores.... and personally can't imagine spending my Paris time in a sports store.
Home cookware stores.... David Leibovitz has a great list here:
Remind me again, but I think you're only in Paris a few days, and trying to take a couple of day trips to Disney and possibly Versailles? You aren't going to have much time for shopping, too.
I read upthread also that you want to do the Louvre but no other museums. Really? The Louvre is enormous... if you're going to show your kids something they're learning about in school, I get it. But just as a place to wander around through, it's overwhelmingly huge. Do your kids like art? You might enjoy the Musee D'Orsay or the Orangerie--much smaller venue.
Don't worry about pre-booking tickets to the Eiffel Tower. You probably won't have to wait more than 30 minutes, which includes going through all narrow queue for security.
Do you have a book on Paris. A pocket map with a map of the metro?
