One thing that caught us all by surprise last year is just how badly things collapsed. I think we've all been nice and wise after the event, but at the time really nobody saw this coming.
I speak having just been reading the Viva El Fulham writers' predictions.
(I highlight this not to criticise, by the way – these are some of the people I agree with most on footballing matters!)
They did well to spot Kieran Richardson but everything else is miles off. Will noted the need for a passing midfielder and worried what the lack of one might mean, but really passing wasn't the problem. Fulham 2013/14 turned into a boat full of holes, with water coming in faster than it can be bailed out. You could fix one issue and another would present itself. You might say that the problem with Fulham wasn't the midfield, the defence, or the attack. The problem was "the footballing side of things". And the off-pitch stuff, too. So: everything.
If everything was wrong, why didn't we notice? It's not just us, of course. I remember Louise Taylor of the Guardian predicting relegation, but then she had Spurs to win the league too. No, everyone missed it. There was clearly much happening behind the scenes that we weren't privy to, but were there signs we could see? How could we have spotted this?
The end of the season before: after beating QPR 3-2 on April fool's day (we went 3-0 up, played awfully, but hung on), Fulham lost 6, drew 1, then beat Swansea on the last day of the season. We all noticed the bad form but many of us took the view that the form over the course of the season had been decent enough and that bad runs happen, don't they? In retrospect this collapse was a real red flag.
We then sold Etuhu, Murphy, Dembele and Dempsey. Now, this was perhaps unavailable but it did represent a lot of talent disappearing in one go. Dembele was playing at an elite level. Dempsey's 20 goal season was as impressive as anything anyone's done in a Fulham shirt in recent years. Murphy was a great player and a leader. Etuhu was just the kind of player teams need but sometimes forget they need. Now, we had Sidwell and Parker as it turned out but this proved to be a calimitous drop-off.
Jol's incoming transfers showed no underlining ethos. Riise, Grygera, Ruiz, Sa, Pogrebnyak, Diarra, Petric, Rodallega, Berbatov, Richardson, Dejagah, Karagounis, Riether, Frimpong, Emanuelson, Manolev, Enoh, Amorebieta, Boateng, Stekelenburg, Parker, Zverotic… it's just completely haphazard isn't it? Players not being bought to fill a role at all, just a giant splurge, like he was buying books he might not get to read for a while. If things were to get better we might have expected to see some Jol signings integrated into the team, as important players, but no: there's not a single player that Jol bought who became indispensible. We should have been more suspicious of this than we were.
Despite all of this I still think a mid-table finish was a reasonable expectation. We'll have to wait for the autobiographies to find out what exactly happened.

Higher Executive Pay Benefits Others
February 23, 1998
Companies have increasingly linked executive compensation to stock price performance; analysts say this has motivated CEOs to improve corporate performance, thus improving U.S. companies' competitive advantage.
- A 1997 Watson Wyatt survey found companies that give stock options to all employees have a total return to shareholders of 19.2 percent vs. 10.7 percent for companies that don't.
- Companies that give cash incentives also have a much higher return to shareholders.
- Another Watson Wyatt survey of 438 companies found those with above-median stock ownership among CEOs had a median total return of 22 percent annually.
- Companies with below-median ownership had a median annual return of 15 percent -- a difference that can mean billions of dollar of increased shareholder value.
Researchers say higher executive compensation creates value for employees and retirees. As stock prices rise, so does the security of pensions and other mutual funds that employees and companies have established for retirement.
In return, CEOs take comparatively little. From 1994 to 1996, the total value of stock owned by American households rose from $5.7 trillion to $8.5 trillion. The CEOs of the 500 largest companies take home far less than 1 percent of that amount.

Microsoft Must Bundle Java. There's good news for competition now that a federal judge has said he'll support an injunction requiring Microsoft to bundle… No surprise that I disagree with Dan Gillmor on this. Yes, it's true that Microsoft took aim at Java. It's also true that Sun aimed Java at Microsoft. I can't think of anything more ludicrous than a failed competitor winning an injunction to force the foe to bundle the competing product.
Judge: Bundle Java!

279 pages, Figs, tabs
Hirofuni Uzawa, one of the leading economic theorists of the past 40 years, extends economic theory to cover global warming and how to address it. He constructs a theoretical framework in which three major problems concerning global environmental issues may be effectively addressed. First, all phenomena involved with global environmental issues exhibit externalities of one kind or another. Secondly, global environmental issues involve international and intergenerational equity and justice. Thirdly, global environmental issues concern the management of common natural resources and therefore require a consensus of affected countries.
'The brilliant economic theorist, Hirofumi Uzawa, has shown in this book the usefulness of sophisticated economic theory in the analysis of the very important and very practical problem of global climate change. He has studied such varied concepts as the optimal levels of tradeable permits and carbon taxes for the optimization of economic activity when account is taken of the effects of climate change. He has gone further to study the dynamic paths that have to be taken to best distribute the costs and gains between the present and the future as well as across countries. Finally, he has contributed a very original analysis of the process of bargaining about climate change among different countries. The book is a remarkable combination of close understanding of the climatic problem and original development of new and appropriate economic theory.' Kenneth Arrow, Stanford University 'This is a far-reaching work on the foundations of the economics for global public goods. The clarity of exposition, the depth and breadth of reach, allied to the sheer elegance of the analysis undertaken in it by Professor Uzawa, are what we have come to expect from one of the noblest and most acute social scientists of our time.' Sir Partha Dasgupta, University of Cambridge 'This long-awaited book by one of the leading economic theorists of the last century sheds new light on one of the most significant and least tractable environmental problems of our times, climate change. Not every feature of the problem is addressed, but what is covered is vintage Uzawa. The deferential (Nash) equilibrium and the core of the cooperative game between major sources of greenhouse gases are characterized with a rigour that many will find deeply satisfying. Not for the first time, an initiative by the Royal Swedish Academy of Science's Beijer Institute has strengthened the foundations of environmental economics everywhere.' Charles Perrings, University of York 'Global climate change presents important challenges and interesting problems for economic theory and empirical policy analysis, because of climate change's massive scale, long time horizon, and fundamental uncertainty. There is no one better equipped to write a book on the relationship between economic theory and global warming than Hirofumi Uzawa, the distinguished theorist from the University of Tokyo. This book will advance discussions among economists and become a standard reference for the profession.' Robert Stavins, Harvard University

Do's and Don'ts of Life-Cycle Funds
Here are some issues to consider when deciding whether to invest in a life-cycle, or target-date, fund:
DON'T decide based on past performance. That's true for most mutual funds but even more the case for these funds that haven't been around for long. Funds that hold more stock investments than others are likely to have had the best recent performance but may not be the best for the long run.
DO look at fees. They have a major impact on returns. In 2006, Consumer Reports found big differences in annual expense ratios.
DO understand how funds divide your money between stocks and bonds and how that allocation changes over time.
DO understand that the funds are an attempt to move more investors closer to having what they need in retirement but are not a guarantee of a fully funded retirement.

It is not a Bigfoot. That is an old name and really should no longer be used. They are all around the world, as many other species are, and have different races. The main species of Sasquatch in North America are believed to be descendants of Gigantopithecus. There are different names given to these creatures, such as Yeti or Yowie depending on what part of the world you are in. The length and color of hair and the size all depend on the region. One race in high mountain areas of China has longer and light colored hair. That makes sense because of the cold region at that altitude. No matter where they are seen, these primitive people are modern descendents of either Gigantopithecus or a similar species that existed in the country where they are spotted. They are the next closest creature to humans and act in much the same way as primitive human tribes in remote areas of the world do today. Though, some Sasquatch will also move to other areas during seasonal changes to find food. Families of Sasquatch have been reported and evidence of young with adults has been discovered. There have also been hair and blood samples examined in labs worldwide. The results showed that the hair samples were not on file. The scientisits in three countries said that the hair samples were closer to human hair than any other species. There is more evidence out there than people know of and government scientists have been involved. There are no questions unanswered, just answers that are not public.

I posted these about a week ago to figure out how to do them. Aren't they just fabulous!!!
I still don't know if I can pull off this look, it would take lots of practice I'm sure. She does a beautiful job, certainly not easy to imitate. I thought about doing them in chocolate, kind of like those Kathy Scott (?) petit four molds. Maybe that's an idea?
No way am I that good with fondant.
How pretty! i too would have voted for mini ball pan. Too big to be cake balls
im interested in how the cupcake ones were done and wether they are iced or covered in fondant
Ok - so I get that they are the sports ball or mini ball pan - BUT how do you get the icing/fondant/chocolate so darn smooth - What is it covered with?????
These are SO AMAZING!!
The other night I emailed the baker to find out, but she hasn't emailed me back (kinda didn't figure she would, but what could it hurt to ask - right?)
Janel, which one did you email? The one in the original post or the Sweet Things blogspot? SweetThings may answer since she does have a blog & shares a lot of info already....?
Oh, sorry - the original one! I didn't think about emailing the other one... I guess I should do that! ha!!
I would do the icing in a mold kind of kathy scott style, i think that would work quite well.
I just got an email answer from SweetThings - she uses the Wilton mini sports ball pan and coveres them with SMBC and then a locally made fondant....
I think maybe she puts the fondant little thick??? and works until she gets the finish???...just my two cents
They are beautiful!!
I haven't used Kathy's Scott's thing in a long time. But doesn't she just use melted chocolate in the mold? Then I guess the idea would be to bake cakes and fill the molds with them. That's sort of the same way with the hollow Christmas Ornaments. I agree with everyone else that getting them smooth is the trick.
WOW!! Those are GORGEOUS! I couldn't get the link to her website to work though. But I definitely have added those (what are they ball cupcakes?) to my list of cool things to try this year! By the way, did anyone notice the last comment -- the gal noticed "the latest thing" in cakes -- cake balls! Now if she had been here on CC for any length of time she would have known these are old hat!
i have a little tip about how to cover a ball of cake smoothly with fondant but i dont have any pictures as i lost them all last year
place the ball of cake on an spare cake drum or board, cover in a suitable coating of what ever you want to use to stick the fondant (BC, ganache etc). roll the fondant out so that it is not too thin and about 2 times bigger than you need to cover the ball and using the warmth of your cupped hand smooth the fondant by rubbing it all over working gently towards the bottom and under the ball. you should be able to work the under side so that there is no creases and trim off all of the excess fondant. and smooth out with your warm hands hope that helps anyone wanting to give it a go
You can make cake balls in any size really, so why cant these be cake balls? There are only a few scattered that are much bigger than the others and I think this was done for look. They were probably frosted in poured fondant like petite fours and air brushed lightly with shimmer dust. Could be, In my own opinion. They are truly gorgeous.
... They were probably frosted in poured fondant like petite fours and air brushed lightly with shimmer dust. Could be, In my own opinion. They are truly gorgeous.
I am with you on the poured fondant, and airbrushing..
Also I feel that with some patience and skill, you could achieve a smooth finish with rolled fondant. I however would not make it too thick, for fear of losing the perfect shape of the ball. Sometimes a ball of fondant that you have smoothed with the heat of your palm works nicely for a smooth surface.
Another suggestion is to use a clothes steamer after you have applied the fondant, (this will smooth out any imperfections and give the surface a nice sheen) and then apply the details.
These suggestions are just my opinion and what I would try first...
very pretty
They are just beautiful! I would love to try them.. I think there would be a lot of trial and error with them no matter what technique you used..

Michael Martling is an Adventist who will be converting to Catholicism this Easter.

Michael Martling is an Adventist who will be converting to Catholicism this Easter.
The Kindle edition of Teresa and Arthur Beem's book, "It's Okay Not To Be A Seventh-Day Adventist", is now available at Amazon.
Mike Senseney wrote the following on a Facebook forum, and he's given permission for me to share this. He's an ex-Adventist who found his way home to the Catholic Church.
In his new book, Waking Up Catholic, Chad Torgerson describes his journey into the Catholic Church. He discusses how his faith in Christ developed over the years, from Lutheran, to agnostic/atheist, to born-again Protestant, and finally Catholic. Specifically, he brings in how his relationship with Christ was influenced by his study of Catholic teachings and practices, and shows how they can bring one closer to Christ. The book is easy to read, but gets to the point of complex issues remarkably well without becoming too…
As Christ said that the truth will set us free, and it has often been said that when people discover what the Catholic faith is really about, instead of hearing what their tradition wants them to believe about it, they will come to love it for what it is instead of hating and fearing what it isn't.
Dr Francis Beckwith, current president of the Evangelical Theological Society, has converted back to Catholicism.
Dies Domini "is a internet research center, dedicated to promoting an ecumenical dialogue between Catholics and Seventh-day Adventists. Founded by former Adventists who embraced the Catholic faith, this ministry exists to glorify Christ in faithful service of His Church."
Here is an interesting - and detailed - letter of resignation from the Adventist church. Tesa Beem's Letter of Resignation
All of the criticisms were the result of twisting and misunderstanding Catholic teaching.
If you can understand Serbian, and are interested in Adventism, here's a website run by ex-Adventists who are now Orthodox Christians. It looks like there's a lot of info there, I just don't understand what it says.
Dr. Beverly Whelton, former Seventh-day Adventist, now Catholic, speaks about her conversion to the Catholic Church. May 23 2005, The Journey Home, with Marcus Grodi.

LORRAINE Inkster will celebrate her 100th birthday in the same Paradise house she was born in, on a street (Lorraine Ave) named after her.
Her maiden name, Gameau, belongs to one of the original pioneer families of the Campbelltown region.
Her great-grandfather, John Gameau, owned much of the land that is now known as Paradise.
Her father Thomas — who was the second mayor of the then St Peters Council — and mother Lina built the house in 1878. It stood on 8.9ha of land and the family grew oranges and ran a market garden.
TELL US BELOW: Do you have a family story to share?
"I was born on the dining table that still sits in the front dining room," Mrs Inkster says.
"The area is very familiar to me so its nice to still be able to come here.
"Back then it was all farming with market gardens so it has changed a lot."
She married her late husband, Stanley Inkster, in 1942, and they moved into the family home together with her parents and her younger brother and his family.
In 1954, Mrs Inkster's father died and she inherited the house. The land was subdivided and sold off in 1965 and the road the family home was on was named Lorraine Ave.
Mrs Inkster lived in the house until 1993, when she moved to a smaller house next door.
She moved to a nursing home at Ingle Farm in 2011.
Her son Winton, 66, now lives in the house.
Mrs Inkster will celebrate her birthday at the family house on Sunday, August 10, with her sons, Michael, 71, Winton, and Peter, 66, six grandchildren, two step-grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren.
She says the secret to longevity is quite simple.
"I ate a lot of oranges, so many my parents said I would turn orange, so I think that's kept me going," she says.
"Mum would be looking for me and I would be under an orange tree sucking all of the juice out of the oranges.
"I don't like them at all now — I've had my fill."

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Origins Available: English, Scottish
Anglo-Saxon name Kerrich come from when the family resided in the village of Kerridge found in the parish of Prestbury in the county of Cheshire.
Kerrich Early Origins
Cheshire, in the village of Kerridge. The place name was derived from "key ridge." However, we must look to Suffolk for the earliest record of the family as John Kerrage was registered there in 1297. Two years later, the family "occurs in the records of Dunwich for 1299." [1]CITATION[CLOSE]
Guppy, Henry Brougham, Homes of Family Names in Great Britain. 1890. Print.
Kerrich Spelling Variations
Kerrich Spelling Variations
The English language only became standardized in the last few centuries; therefore, spelling variations are common among early Anglo-Saxon names. As the form of the English language changed, even the spelling of literate people's names evolved. Kerrich has been recorded under many different variations, including Kerridge, Kerrage, Kerrich, Kerriche, Kerysche and others.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
For many English families, the political and religious disarray that shrouded England made the far away New World an attractive prospect. On cramped disease-ridden ships, thousands migrated to those British colonies that would eventually become Canada and the United States. Those hardy settlers that survived the journey often went on to make important contributions to the emerging nations in which they landed. Analysis of immigration records indicates that some of the first North American immigrants bore the name Kerrich or a variant listed above: John Kerridge, who was living in Haldimand County, Ontario in 1877; and Frederick John Kerridge, who was on record in Minneapolis in 1875.
Contemporary Notables of the name Kerrich (post 1700)
Contemporary Notables of the name Kerrich (post 1700)
The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Nunquam Non Paratus
Motto Translation: Never unprepared.

text: Yet Another Intro Thread... Let's see... well, here's my "phone" history. Used to be a Nextel junkie until Sprint swiped them up (i1000 anyone?) and ran with a Treo 700p for a while. Jumped up to my first WinMo phone in the form of the Treo 800w. After almost a decade with Sprint/Nextel, I decided to jump ship and give AT&T a try with their Fuze/Touch Pro. Became a regular on XDA, with all of their custom-rom goodness. But AT&T's network is absolutely horrid in the Chicagoland area so after less than a year there, I came back to Sprint and got a pair of Pre's for myself and my girlfriend. I've been moderately satisfied with the Pre but when the HTC Evo was announced, I knew I'd found my next phone. Since I use data heavily, and WiMax is available in most of the Chicagoland area, I knew I'd found my next phone. So here I am... another PreCentral.net transplant.

Have had to slow down on my spinning for the TourdeFleece, surgically repaired knees were screaming at me (especially at night), so now only spin for maybe an hour in the morning , maybe another hour or so later in the day. Knees seem OK with that, so far. So instead of spinning have been working on Monstersocks, 2 soft bags on the floor one with odd variegated yarn balls and the other with odd solid colored yarn balls, reach in the solid bag without looking and pick one out, knit 5-7 rows and add it to a 3rd bag, then do the same for the variegated. So far for the most part colors are OK just a couple I wouldn't ordinarily let next to each other but the name of the game is Monstersocks. First sock is done and second within maybe 20 rows of the toe, should have pix for next blog report.
Finally have seen a black bear, twice now in last week, kind of hard to tell if its the same black, buggers don't hold still enuff even for a pix. This mornings view was on the upper part of my driveway, on the way to the dump about 6:45 and it ran across in front of the car.
Went to town on Friday 18th, waited until the weather cooled a bit, hit farmers market in town and got Kale and some real tomatoes, then many other errands got groceries and left town just after 2 pm. Salads every supper since I got home, tonight's will have leftover rotisserie chicken in with organic salad greens, cucumber, tomatoes, and cilantro. And weather is cool enuff for leftover bones & chicken into soup pot.
3 bucks in the yard just after 8 am, couldn't get a pix of the 3 tog, 2 is best I could do.

Green Acres Farm Sanctuary currently provides a home to over 150 animals.
Here are a few of their stories.
We have over 50 hens and 13 roosters. With the popularity of backyard chicken coops, there is a growing number of older hens that are unwanted once they have stopped laying eggs and many rejected roosters that were mistaken for hens as chicks. We would like to build additional coops in the future to provide a safe place for more hens and roosters. You can help make this happen by donating.
Our diverse family of ducks is made up of Mallard, Pekin, Campbell, Muscovy, and Indian Runners. Several of our ducks had been dumped and abandoned while others needed to be relocated because their flock was being killed off by predators. Now they all have a safe place to nest and call home.
Twenty-one goats now call Green Acres Farm Sanctuary their home.
This is Buford our first goat, and, in fact, our first resident! Buford was abandoned by his owners when they sold their house and the new homeowners didn't want him either. We can't imagine how anyone could just leave Buford behind because he is such a funny and friendly character.
Meet Houdini a Toggenberg and self proclaimed leader of the goat herd. He and two other goats were bought by a man to clear his land. But once the work was done Houdini was the only goat still alive and was than unwanted. Instead of ending up at auction we were able to step in and give Houdini a safe and loving home.
Eighteen sheep now call Green Acres Farm Sanctuary their home.
Our shy Hamilton was the sole survivor of his small flock after coyotes attacked. Before we were able to rescue him he had to live among the dead remains for several days. Hamilton still shows signs of his traumatic past but has found a safe place at Green Acres.
Meet Hugo, Mia, and Peeta who were abandoned and had to watch the rest of their herd slowly be killed off by predators. Fortunately for these three, they were rescued and transported to Green Acres Farm Sanctuary where they will have safe shelter and pasture.
Stormy is a 32 year old Arabian gelding which is 90 in human year. Despite his advance age Stormy has taken a liking to a 8 year old mare. Keeping Stormy frisky requires special food, supplements and extra veterinary care. You can help with Stormy's retirement by making a donation to Green Acres Farm Sanctuary.
Daisy is a 8 year old POA Quater horse mare and Nash is a 25 year old Arabian gelding. Nash and Daisy arrived together after being displaced as a result of a domestic violence situation. We were glad to provide them with safe shelter and help them get back to their optimum health.
Meet Festus Jackson, a sometimes feisty but always lovable donkey. He likes his head scratched, enjoys carrots, and seems most intrigued by children. Festus had been deemed not adoptable and had a dim future when we were asked to give him a safe and permanent home. At Green Acres Farm Sanctuary animals are allowed to be themselves with no human expectations.
Ruby is quite unique because she is a hinny. Her mother was a donkey and her father was a horse. Hinnies are an exact opposite cross as a mule and are even more rare. She resembles more of a horse with her shorter ears but is the size of a donkey. Some say hinnies are smarter than horses and less stubborn than donkeys.
Green Acres Farm Sanctuary provides an on going foster program for SafeHaven Humane Society in Albany, Oregon and One Tail at a Time – Portland. Through this program we have been able to give countless cats, kittens, dogs, and puppies a safe place until they can be placed for adoption and find their forever homes.

Really good quality as you would expect from JTG. The colours work perfectly, the body length is spot on, the collar is just right. Very 60s, very sharp! A great addition to my wardrobe.
Another fine piece of knitwear from Jump the Gun' very close fit with an excellent choice of colour contrast,also great detailing with a rear button on the collar.
As always a fantastic customer experience, placed my order around 2pm Thursday afternoon and received my order on Friday morning.
Thanks guys.Martyn, thanks for the comments, glad you like the colour.

TAHAWK, I too have struggled with "Obedient" discussions with my scouts. I think we should teach a Davy Crockett mindset "Make sure you (they, Akela) are right, then go ahead." and the historical lessons of American disobedience from JFK's Profiles in Courage.
Our program focuses on character-building, leadership-building but seemingly skirts teaching "doing the right thing" in favor of blind obedience. I would prefer Strong (Courage), Alert, Aware, ...even Hawk-eyed

ALBUM: Turn Blue
ARTIST: The Black Keys
Turn Blue, the eighth studio album crafted by The Black Keys, is, unfortunately only my first venture into their discography. Not due to any particular kind of ignorance or unwillingness to give the band a chance - I had heard great things about their prior record (El Camino) - but because of some innate sense of already knowing I was going to enjoy the work of this duo. Call it inane (or insane), but it's held me at bay for this long. Thank god, however, for this site and the opportunity to listen to everything from Mac Miller's psychedelic stoner trip, Faces, to this, charming, romanticized ode to psychedelic rock.
By romanticized, I'm referring to the subtle longing found in Auerbach's, often airy, incessantly inviting, vocals - a longing for change but hesitant in embracing the advice that he himself pens throughout the album. The album opens in reverse, the sprawling ballad "Weight Of Love," simultaneously establishing the premise of being lost in complacency and quickly moving past the more drawn-out rumination. This leaves room for the rest of tracks to maintain a certain pep, a bounce in their rhythmic groove, despite Auerbach's consistent musings. "In Time" is allowed the freedom to be extremely catchy as well as assured in its delivery and the awesome swing of its melody. On the titular track, even as he "remembers the time love would really glow," the melodic sway of the instrumentation picks up the tempo in precise measures. The album is, if anything, deliberate in its infectious stride, with each inflection and warble in the vocals matched with a swooping lull or rising climax.
Even though the haunting "Bullet In the Brain" would be fitting as the makeshift centerpiece of the album, the fact there isn't a clear focus throughout the record is indicative of a more deeply imbedded problem. One of the album's major flaws stems from the writing. Even when many of the tracks work very well on their own, and when placed together, Turn Blue meshes well sonically, the content and the writing often feels inconsequential. Maybe the closer, the clean-cut country/rock number "Gotta Get Away," was meant to be triumphant, especially after the album's never-ending one-off lines of foreboding and forewarning, but you're simply left wondering what was actually accomplished - what lesson was taken away, or what all the half-cocked doom & gloom built up to.
But this album finds a way to takes its rumination and make it catchy, to create an album of entertaining tracks even if the product isn't as cohesive as a whole. A sense of whimsy that's thoroughly embraced is found in almost every track, in some form or another - never allowing a track to get lost in its own daydreaming. When it gets close, like on "Waiting on Words," there are tracks like the sing-song "10 Lovers" (and playful "It's Up To You Now") to surround it on either side. Although it's predicated on suffocating complacency, and an urge to starting freeing yourself, the album is already almost uniformly uninhibited. It never appears to be holding its breath - contrastingly, it's actually pretty self-assured in its mild yet psychedelic groove - but, unfortunately, you're left wondering what could've happened if The Black Keys actually dared to take in one of those big gulps of rigid, fresh, air, and hold it in until they turned blue.
"Will it ever end?"

With my 1st pregnancy weight wasn't an issue but dd2 I was around 110 when I fell pregnant I must of got heavier than 121kg because that's where I started my weightloss journey from when she was 8 mths I got down to 80kg within 6 mths with Tony ferguson so I know it is possible & does work as I said earlier with ds I only gained 10kg then lost most but he never slept so I was feeding him 24/7 so I was eating all the time too & always the wrong thing
25-01-2011 20:56 #163
Very quiet in here today! I went and had dinner out tonight, ate way too much. I'm also off to a party one Saturday night, and lunch with a friend on Monday. So this week is really bad for me food and exercise wise. I doubt I'll be loosing much, if anything this week. I'll pick up the treadmill next week probaly so that might help to get me going again.
After not having a car for two years, we finally got one today! I can say goodbye to buses for a while!!
25-01-2011 21:08 #164
congrats on the car pj that will make life easier, it is so quiet in here
25-01-2011 21:36 #165
Thanks for the welcome everyone!
Today I had cross training and omg I felt like I was going to vomit by the end of it, it was the hardest cross training class I have been to!! I usually do cross training once a week and a boxing class aswell, kind of depends what DF is working as one of us needs to be home to look after DS.
I have a had a pretty ordinary day of eating, I overindulged tonight and ate a whole block of Cadbury Caramello (how embarrassing lol) My excuse is that I was emotional after discussing when to start TTC#2 with DF. He wanted to do it now and I kind of did but now we have agreed that the end of the year is going to be more practical. So yay for that decision!
Tomorrow will be better, must think positively!! I am my own worst enemy at times!! I think I will make my weigh in day Saturday mornings
I hope everyone else is plodding along nicely!!
25-01-2011 22:16 #166
We should ban the word chocolate from this thread :lol: now i want some!
I've noticed in the last two weeks that on the nights I've had carbs, 2-3 hours later I'm starving! When I have low or no carbs I'm fine. I wonder if this confirms I have insulin resistance?
I find it interesting that we're all on a mission to loose weight but we all have our different reasons. For me its the fact that I don't want to be my mother. Type 2 diabetes, 30 years of obesity, several strokes and she's only 59. My 12yo sister has to live with the reality that our mother is now disabled. She still walks and talks, but has limited vision and slow speech.
I think once you get past 25 things are downhill if you don't change your lifestyle. The abuse we (some of us) put our bodies through in our teens and early 20's catches up eventually. The times where I could scoff a bag of corn chips and chase it down with an entire block of choclate, with no conseqiences, are long gone. Surviving off one meal a day and drinking all night no longer keeps my body a size 8. Those bags of size 8-10 clothing aren't ever going to fit again, even if they did they'd be 10 years out of date fashion wise. It's time to accept my 29yo body isn't 18 anymore!! :lol: How much of this weight can I blame on bad genetics?!!
25-01-2011 22:55 #167
PJ- what an awesome post! Really hit home there! And I'm the same aside from not wanting to be my mother because if I was half the woman she is I'd be one proud lass!! Weight wise and health wise she's a type 1 diabetic (the one you can't help having) and has had thyroid problems and had hers removed so there were reasons she struggled with weight health wise. Well I've never been a size 10 or lower and tbh I'm not gonna kid myself and think that'll ever happen a size 12 is where I'm happy so two more sizes to go!!! Anyway it's the packet of chips followed by chocolate (and don't forget the coke) sometimes it was chips and chocolate at the same time (don't knock it till you tried it ) my biggest problem is control if there's crap in the house I need to eat it hence why there's nothing in our pantry besides cruskits and light jatz! They are my treats now! And I tell ya what the jatz plain go down a treat for me believe it or not I quite enjoy them it's my version of chips hehe and basically after all that I'm doing this for myself and that's why this time it's working! It's not to get a guy or doing it because you wanna be skinnier than your friend ( yes I was that juvenile) it's wholeheartedly for me and if I don't go to the gym one day I'm only letting myself down and I'm a very proud person and I hate letting myself down!!
I have insulin resistance but I haven't had the carb problem you were talking about well not lately before tbh I wouldn't have even noticed I would have just stuffed my gob if I was hungry since going on this "health kick" (which kinda dropped in my lap as my first 13kg were just from going back to work so I was lucky and having DD because pre DD it would have been vegetable, what is a vegetable? ) my health has done a complete 180 and I'm so happy I've had the support from here and the drive to keep at it even when I've been bad! I still kick myself when I've been bad but I just say well tomorrow is a new day! So there's my epic... Haha
Too much has happened to do personals but here's me...
Today I got back on the bandwagon after being MIA for a couple of weeks. I'm not sleeping to good ATM and I'm not sure if it's stress or the heat but either way it's done absolutely nothing for my motivation! I hadn't been to the gym since Friday night when I did two classes until today which as you all know is unheard of for me! Long story short I was lacking motivation and DD still has a runny nose backed up with a bit of gastro so I wasn't going to be irresponsible and take her to crèche I've always said I'm not gonna be one of those mothers that put other kids at risk because what if there was another kid like DD in the room I'd never forgive myself if I was the reason another mother had to go through what I've been through! Anyway fact is I could have done my zumba DVDs but I didn't. I'm not going to feel bad though because I truly believe I needed the break. I have put on a kg but I know that'll be an easy one to loose. I went to the gym today and ran 2kms in intervals so 3.5km mixed with walking and I'm so proud! Ok it's not that far but it is for me and while running I had my heart rate up to a cardio level so I know I worked hard I sometimes wish the time wasn't on the treadmill though because I kept looking at it thinking ok only 2min left and then I'd look and only 30sec had past and I was getting peeved off but I pushed through all the goals I set for myself!
Food today... Honestly I don't remember I do know nothing terribly bad though and I had a weight watchers lasagna for dinner thought about buying the chocolate puddings for dessert but I said to myself what for? It's just added calories and I DON'T need anything more even if DD ends up eating half of my lasagna
Ok so that's where I'm at! I missed you guys!! and thanks to PM for getting my butt back in here
25-01-2011 23:27 #168
Well chickybabes I am back from holidays where I started off great and then kinda went downhill after Mum cooked a roast for tea followed by pudding and custard, though did a lot of walking. Got back last night and went out to dinner with my kindy friends and was stoked to find I fitted into my size 20 brown pants that had a safety pin in (which I didn't need to use) from the last time I wore them which I can't remember when that was. Think I lost 300grams for the week so not too bad I was happy to just maintain so 300grams loss was a bonus.
I skimmed through the posts and the last two really where the ones that really hit home. I am kinda the opposite, I am blessed with two very healthy parents, my dad is very fit at 60 and my mum complans when the scales move above 65kg - though have made me feel fat all my life. My real motivation for loosing weight other than myself is my children, especially my DD I know what it is like to constantly feel fatter than everyone else and I would hate her to go through that. I want to be fit and healthy and there for them for a long time and by eating healthily and exercising hopefully I will instill good lifestyle choices in them.
Quick question I saw the bye Opti thread (thanks kribby) does that mean she is gone from our thread as well?
Will pop in tomorrow and catch up some more...

PrincessM Thank you so much for your encouragement and for saying that I am doing well. I really needed to hear that.
PrincessJ How exciting to hear about your car! I think I am lucky when I say that my weakness is not chocolate or sweet things. But in saying that we all have our weaknesses.
kribby Your house sounds exactly like mine. Light cruskits and light jatz are treats in our house too. Although I have started buyimg WW bars and Nestle diet youghurt (the WW 1 point ones) as well. I used to be able to eat a 200g packet of chips in one sitting. Whereas a whole packet of light cruskits is only just over 100g and so much better for m.
Hart My DD is part of my motivation as well. Like you I know what it is like to grow up over weight, how hard it is, how much ridicule it brings, how it effects your self esteem etc. I don't want her to feel the hurt I felt as I as growing up. I want to show her that healthy food and a healthy lifestyle can be enjoyable and is necessary.
AFM I've enjoyed reading everyone's motivation. Thanks for the post PrincessJ. As I mentioned above part of my motivation is DD, part of my motivation is me wanting to live a healthier life (wanting to enjoy exercise, healthy eating, for life to not be a constant struggle), to be able to buy clothes in a 'normal' store not just plus size sections or specialty stores, part of it is wanting to be healthy enough to see DD grow up, finish school, graduate, get married, have children etc and a BIG part of it is to be healthy enough to fall pregnant, have a struggle free pregnancy/birth and have a beautiful, healthy baby.
I bumped into a lady from work yesterday (I have been on leave for 6 weeks) and was really chuffed with her shock at my appearance. As soon as she saw me she said 'Look at you! You've lost heaps over the break!' I told her that I was really chuffed to hear that because when I had mentioned to someone close to me that I had lost nearly nearly 11kgs this person said that you would think that it would be noticeable by now but it wasn't. My colleague was flabbergasted and said 'If you can't see it on your waist and hips (which she reinforced that you could) you can definitely see it in your face.' I really need to hear that after the appintment that I had had at the Dr's the other day.
Yesterday was an extremely busy day! But the best part of it was meeting the beautiful iMischa and her gorgeous boys. We met at a park so our LO's could have a play and it was a really lovely morning.
I went to Aldi yesterday and bought some of their meal replacement shakes. They are about half the price of the other shakes. Has anyone else tried them?
The heat was unbearable yesterday and unfortunately I was unable to get outside for a walk. I really should get some more games for the wii or some exercise DVDs for times like this.

Ariana...I saw your post a couple of days about the doctors..You are taking this so seriously, it would be nice to get the level of support you need at the Docs. You have lost a huge amount of weight. I hope upping the dose goes ok, because you seem to be tolerating it ok so far.
PJ..Glad you are feeling better, and awesome news about the car. It will make life easier.
Kribby...I am in shock! You! Not go to the gym!! Wow! A break would have done the world of good though sweetie. I hope your DD is feeling better soon. Poor little dumpling. How's Andy going? Have you let him out of the cage yet?
Yay HART! No more safety pins!! Woohoooooo!!! And yay you're back from holidays.
PM..How did it go with the naturopath? Was it useful?
Well I have been flat out studying..DD and I had a day off yesterday, it was so nice. Went swimming at a friend's house, and then we drove down the coast and went shopping and spent the rest of the afternoon at the park and the beach. It was just beyond delightful.
I finally recovered from the workout DVD..I felt like I was sunburnt, and had been run over by a train. Ouch!!!!
Still plateauing. I have tried eating more/exercising more, but can't seem to shake through it. This must have been the weight I was while pregnant, and my body is holding onto that.
