|Do they make a scale that says "FATter instead?"
Tonight, I stepped on the scale and was so happy to see that I had finally reached 110 pounds. I know, I know, people will say "what I would do to weight 110 pounds!" but the past month has been filled with a lot of work to get my weight back up to something that resembles healthy and normal.
About a month ago, I was just getting over a pretty intense bout of sickness and as I got back into the swing of every day life, I felt 10 pounds lighter! It felt like a fresh start, and it caused me to look at my life with a new set of eyes and a spring in my step. I was excited to get back to working, running, and enjoying the simple things.
But not only did I FEEL 10 pounds lighter, I actually WAS 10 pounds lighter, an unfortunate result of 3 weeks without much of an appetite. People commented that I looked tiny, and I felt weak and uncomfortable in my skin. My clothes got baggy, and I used one more belt loop than my belt was used to.
Losing weight as a woman is hard enough as it is. When you gain weight, people know it's rude to say "gosh you're looking fatter than normal!" But the rules for losing weight are skewed. You constantly feel like you have to defend it, because everyone wants to be skinny, but not "too" skinny. People start feeding you the gross, sugar-filled food that they don't want because "you could stand to gain a few pounds." People judge you if you don't have the appetite to finish what's on your plate, and you begin to get worried looks as your legs quickly turn into chicken legs, or your waist line shrinks to uncomfortable huggable limits.
So as soon as I could eat again without gagging, I went to work on gaining back the weight.
But there's something about coming back from an illness that puts you on the defense in a different way, you feel a need to convince everyone, and yourself, that you're healthy. That this unplanned weight-loss is temporary and you're working on it, even when your stomach is churning and it's hard to keep down the food you normally love. Not to mention, you don't want a reminder of what was, but those 10 pounds were a reminder, and I wanted to be back to myself.
While some would relish in losing 10 pounds with very little effort, I cringe. My CF life tends to be measured by the pounds I can gain and the pounds I can keep on, and as soon as my weight dips, you can sure as hell bet that I am reminded that I better get back to baseline, and plump up.
Whenever I am on a weight-gaining rampage, I do, and eat, whatever it takes to get the weight back, for fear of getting to a point where my body is too weak to support these pesky lungs of mine.. So after a few days that included a trip or two to McDonalds, eating all the chocolate I had from Christmas, and scarfing down full bags of potato chips, with a soda on the side… I felt like absolute crap. I was lethargic, and bloated, and was lacking the motivation to workout or get off the couch. It was then that I decided to take a new approach: gain the weight back the healthy way.
I had a few workout ebooks that include recipes packed with healthy options. When I follow these workout plans, I only ever loosely followed the recipes… after all, if I was trying to keep my weight up, why would I eat the same food as people who are trying to lose it? But I learned some more about good fats and protein, and went to work on making these "fit" girl recipes… "fat" girl recipes, all while working hard to regain some strength in my body with some resistance and cardio workouts.
One of the reasons that I refused to take on a healthy lifestyle was that I didn't want to give up eating the things I love. But after a month of finding new recipes and food that I enjoy, I find that I don't miss eating unlimited amounts of chocolate, or McDonalds. That being said though, I don't avoid those things altogether either. I can appreciate the joy that chicken nuggets give me, so I can't say I'll ever give them up (don't even send me youtube videos about how horrible they are, ignorance is bliss!). And when I'm in Portland, ME, I'm gonna go to the famous Holy Donut and eat a maple bacon donut. That's just a fact and I'm not sorry about it!
For me, I've focused so much of my life on enjoying the little things, that when it comes to food it's all about finding a balance between the things that make you feel good physically (fruit, vegetables, nutrients), and the things that make you feel good mentally (chocolate, donuts, chicken nuggets…) and making sure not to eat so much of the mentally good stuff that you no longer feel good physically. Let's be honest, I'll never be a nutrition connoisseur, but I'll at least try to make better choices that make me feel healthier! Sometimes I think when we strive for perfection with what we eat, we just end up disappointed and give up altogether.

Today's Word of the Day (or here).
The ubiquitous MKS track pedal. They're nice, they work, they're fun (and sometimes necessary) to rebuild. Are they my "Spirit of the Woods"? Not really sure…. Maybe I'd feel more mythical were I riding Custom Nuevo's, but that's another story. As an aside, those are Soma four-gate clips (available at the shop) with double-straps, they work pretty well and are pretty affordable too.
How many people out there are using these pedals do you think? I've seen criticism of their ubiquity online. But I guess the purpose of this post is really to question why they have "Sylvan" on them? Anyone know? I believe their inspiration had something else written on them: nice gallery images here.
Just curious I guess….

Hi, I have a baby lovebird from the last clutch that I hand-fed and raised that is now a day over 8 weeks old. He/she will not open it's foot properly for the two toes in front and two in the back. He/she has all four toes facing front and can stand okay, but is not very stable when perching. I've seen this happen before on another baby, but the toes eventually opened properly, but before 8 weeks. I'm a little concerned that this hasn't happened yet as it's been after 8 weeks now. Have you heard of this before? If so, will he/she still eventually open the toes properly on it's own, or is this a birth defect? Anything that I can do? I appreciate your advice.

Basketball nets, not the most glamorous basketball accessory, but they obvious have an essential role in the game of basketball. Just think about it for a minute; what would the game of basketball be like without a basketball goal net? Well I would hate to be the player(s) in the paint, even worse, directly under the rim when those rocket balls, keep flying in, and say goodbye to the swish.
As you know the purpose of the basketball net is to slow down the speed of the basketball as it goes through the rim, and secondly it's an accurate way to confirm the ball went through the rim for a score. Most common or popular basketball nets are basically designed the same but some are weighted differently in terms of "Grams", and others have different materials, such as metal, rubber and vinyl coatings.
Common Types of Basketball Nets:
Basketball Net
· Heavy competition braided nylon net
· Suitable as a competition net or as an upgrade for residential use
Nylon Anti-Whip Basketball Net
· Heavy duty anti-whip competition net
· Thick braided nylon reduces whip common with lighter nets
Polyester Anti-Whip Basketball Net
· 100% polyester with Polypropylene in the tips for extra strength
· Official NBA® on-court basketball net used in 30 NBA® arenas
Steel Basketball Net
· Premium steel safety net
· Welded loops eliminate risk of player injury
· Attaches to any style goal via heavy duty "S" hooks
· Superior to normal style chain nets
· Zinc plated
Chain Basketball Net
· Economy chain net
· Outlasts nylon nets
· Attaches to any style goal via "S" hooks
· Zinc plated
Permanet Basketball Net
· 2000 lb. high-strength, flexible steel cable
· Large loop design and protective vinyl coating
· Rim-lock theft-deterrent system
· Unique design resists sticking, tangling, and fraying

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) June 10, 2014
Online property auction powerhouse Micoley.com will be flexing its muscles over the next couple of months, so buyers in the state of Illinois should take careful note: over 60 properties in the state of Illinois alone are currently available for purchase online, if there are no takers prior to the corresponding auction date -- June 21, July 26 or August 23, depending on the property.
This auction event applies to every conceivable buyer -- first-time home purchasers, experienced investors, and those in the commercial property arena, will find something of interest. Property types range from single-family homes to a church, golf course, airport hangar, restaurants, nightclubs, office and retail space, and vacant land of all types, including waterfront property.
At 112-114 Church Street in downtown New Lenox (zip: 60451), Will County is a beautiful and historic (originally built in 1899) church and office building. The building is nearly 14,000 square feet, and the church portion can hold approximately 100 people for services; the rest of the space is dedicated to offices and a large common room. Below the sanctuary is a basement level with several individual offices. The office portion of the building features office spaces and a large room rough plumbed for a kitchen. Restrooms are available on each floor, and there are approximately 15 parking spots, plus street parking. The property lists for $375,000 with an opening bid of $295,000.
Those who love to hit the links will want to look into what Micoley.com is offering next. At 200 E Gurler Rd in DeKalb (zip: 60115) is the Green Tree Golf Course, a 9-hole, par 35 public course with a putting green adjacent to its 4,500-square foot clubhouse. The clubhouse also has more unfinished space in its basement, plus office rooms, a bar, kitchen area, banquet room and a large storage room with an overhead drive-in door. The property is listed at $345,000 with an opening bid of $225,000.
At 3318 Sheridan Road in Zion (zip: 60099) over in Lake County is a 1.32-acre lumber yard and store that contains several outbuildings and a small retail service building with 7,403 square feet. Currently the site is accessible from Sheridan Road; however (per an appraiser), if cleared and redeveloped the site could possibly be accessed from Colgate Road, as well. This piece of real estate is listed at $275,000, with an opening bid of $175,000.
Each one of these properties has motivated, high-energy sellers entertaining early bids, meaning that although all three are scheduled for auction, they may very well sell before that date arrives. Potential buyers would be well advised to begin researching as soon as possible if these properties pique their interest. Indeed, all three properties, along with the full spread of offerings -- which also include residential homes and vacant land -- can be viewed by visiting micoley.com.
Interested parties should visit micoley.com to find photos and details about the properties, or by visiting in person and performing an inspection on site, which is highly recommended. 1-866-371-3619 is Micoley.com's information line. Additionally, Micoley.com features a live chat service through which questions can be answered.

Getting Started on the New Street Series
It's been quite a while since I made the Street Series, and worked in a 12" format. To get myself in the zone, I decided to analyze the layouts of some of the pieces, in black and white. So, I drew out the ones that appealed the most to me. These quick sketches just record the shapes and lines of the pieces, without regard to the fabric color and hopefully remind me what I did, without copying them exactly.
Now I feel ready to begin.
I plan to pull analogous colors and a contrasting color for each composition, hoping to find some really interesting dyed fabrics in my stash...I WILL!
For this series I will begin by cutting my batting to size, which seems like the last thing I usually do, but it will remind me what I am aiming at. The compositions will be constructed on my teflon sheet and when the tops are finished (one inch larger than the finished size) the (excess) edges will be folded over the batting and fused. This will make a sharp edge, with no binding. Then a backing fabric will be fused over the ends and voila, a neat finish. I love this method of finishing.

Ever since we moved Emma into her new room and have been rearranging rooms for peanut, I've been moving my craft stuff into Emma's old room. My dad has been calling it the Daydreaming Gifts Headquarters!
If you don't remember – her room was a BRIGHT yellow that she had picked out. As much as I love yellow, I knew I'd be painting this room something a little less loud to make for a great craft room/guest room. But after planning it out with my dad we did a lot more than just painting:
We decided carpet wasn't such a great choice for a craft room floor so we ripped it up!
We also hated the wasted middle wall for that two door closet.
So we tore it down!
Then moved it to the other side to make way for a wide double door closet instead 🙂
And of course primed the room for some new paint 🙂
There's so much more to come! I can't wait to show you what all we have in store for the new headquarters, thanks to my dad for spoiling me! This is way more than I could have ever dreamed of having!

VLADIVOSTOK, July 27 — A batch of radiation contaminated goods from Japan has been seized in Russias Sakhalin port of Korsakov, a spokeswoman for the Sakhalin customs office told Itar-Tass Friday.
The goods, mainly car components, were delivered onboard the Trawind Glory ship flying the flag of Sierra Leone from Japans port of Otaru on the Island of Hokkaido.
Radiation control revealed Cesium-137 contamination exceeding natural background level by 2.5 times.
The Russian radiation sanitary rules prohibit the use of goods featuring such radioactive contamination levels.
So far, all the contaminated car components are kept onboard the ship.
A decision will be take after an expert study by the Russian consumer rights protection authority. (PNA/Itar-Tass)

This is the first post of a multi-part series of online profiles of real New Orleanians from which some of the characters in HBO's "Treme" were drawn.
Others to come include Kermit Ruffins, Donald Harrison Jr., Davis Rogan and Susan Spicer.
Here is an interview in which co-creator David Simon discusses his process in building the "Treme" characters from some of these real people.
All of the posts will eventually be combined into a longer piece for the Times-Picayune, so consider them a work in progress.
Set in post-Katrina New Orleans, "Treme" debuts at 9 p.m. Sunday.
Ray Shea and Ashley Morris were hardcore fans of "The Wire," so much so that they contributed to a blog called "Got That New Package!" – a reference to the show's Baltimore drug-corner barkers, read the blog here: http://newpackage.wordpress.com/ -- dedicated to tracking the dense David Simon cop drama.
So when they learned that Simon was setting his sights post-"Wire" on New Orleans, the men – who'd met as part of the New Orleans-focused blogging community post-Katrina – began to discuss the project that would come to be called "Treme."
"Ashley and I kept joking about which part (we'd play)," Shea said. " 'I want to say one line on-camera,' you know? We would talk about the different ideas we had – 'I could do this' -- it was kind of funny, it was a joke. But Ashley just wanted to be an extra on camera with one spoken line … and that would be a dream come true."
Morris, who commuted to a Chicago college teaching job from his New Orleans home, wrote witty, angry, profane blog posts after the storm that spoke for many New Orleanians and New Orleans lovers coming to terms with the levee-failure disaster.
He died in 2008 just a few months before HBO announced it would proceed with a pilot for "Treme."
In the HBO series, which debuts April 11, the character Creighton Bernette, played by John Goodman, is partly based – certainly in spirit and occasionally word-for-blog-post-word – on Morris.
"And it's John Goodman, of all people," Shea said. "Ashley loved John Goodman.
"(Goodman took) a very activist role in promoting New Orleans after the storm. The fact that Goodman is playing a character partially based on Ashley – to me, there are too many things lining up like that that are just unreal.
"Ashley had a really, really interesting life, and a really interesting, funny, sarcastic and real take on everything around him that was worth having an opinion on. I'm really glad that he's getting this show in this way."
Morris is remembered many other ways, of course. A Chris Rose column in the Times-Picayune at the time of Morris's death is here. A tribute site built by fellow bloggers is here. His own site, here, contains a collection of links to his "Greatest Hits" posts. His wife Hana blogs her thoughts on Morris's "Treme" moment here.
Morris had tried to get David Simon to make a commencement address at DePaul University, where Morris was an assistant professor in the school's College of Computing and Digital Media.
Simon at first couldn't swing the timing of the event, but changed his plans after Morris's death.
For a story detailing Simon's appearance at DePaul's 2008 commencement, Simon told Chicago Tribune TV critic Maureen Ryan that he had enjoyed reading Morris's posts about "The Wire," and equally admired his post-Katrina efforts.
"I admired his sense of outrage; petulance and selfish rage are useless, but rightful and righteous anger has an essential place in our times," Simon wrote Ryan in an e mail. "Ashley was angry on behalf of others, which in my mind makes all the difference. From what he wrote, I am convinced that Ashley loved his city and he loved the people of his city, and he was short and to the point with people who tried to [evade] the real questions using ad hominem and decorum and false civility. He spoke his mind."
Mark Folse, a close friend and fellow member of the New Orleans blogging community post-K—first at http://wetbankguide.blogspot.com, now at http://toulousestreet.wordpress.com -- said Morris "was someone who was not afraid to publically wave his flag of anger when things went awry or when people in the outside world were unkind to New Orleans. When people raised the questions, 'Why are we rebuilding New Orleans? Why are we wasting money?' he would get in their face (and) not stopping at a blog post that a few hundred people might read. He would pick up a phone and call them and ask them what the hell they were doing."
Shea and Folse and others who knew Morris are hoping that the "Treme" characterization doesn't stop at his anger.
"His anger was part of his charm," Folse said. "He was larger-than-life in any number of senses, something of a born raconteur, and somebody you didn't want to get in an argument with unless you were very sure of your ground, because he would pull no punches.
"He was not always angry. The man was the father of three small children. Obviously, the relationship with him and his wife was something entirely different. Anger was primarily a tool in the cause the rebirth and rebuilding of New Orleans. Someone referred to him as the fire in the furnace that created the fuel that drove him and what the rest of us did.
"He had a tremendous sense of humor, laughed constantly, made everyone around him laugh. If you just read the blog, read it intermittently or just fell into it … you would get a very one-sided picture of a very complex person."
Like Shea, Folse believes Morris would be amused that Simon has chosen to honor him the way he has.
"I think he'd laugh," Folse said. "And I think he would promptly turn into David Simon's worst nightmare, because he'd constantly be correcting him and telling him what he's doing wrong."

We love bringing new and exciting jewellery designers to QVC, and the latest addition to our portfolio will not disappoint!
Today (Friday 22nd March) sees the launch of Studio Barse, a range of affordable bronze and gemstone jewellery from designer Melanie Barse Gobril.
The Studio Barse jewellery collection has been created in honour of her great uncle, American artist George Randolph Barse, who is famous for being one of the few artists chosen to decorate the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. Melanie is committed to continuing the creative elegance and beauty she has inherited.
We caught up with the lady herself, Melanie Barse Gobril, to tell you more…
What is the ethos of the brand?
Barse jewellery is designer sterling silver and bronze with a focus on uncommon usage of stones, especially through custom cuts and placements. Barse customers love the detail that goes into our jewellery. Every piece designed boasts an unusual detail that reveals my love of aesthetic details.
What is your background in jewellery design?
It all started with getting experience in the jewellery industry- my mother owned a retail store in Fort Worth, Texas. I began searching for unique jewellery to bring to my mother's store.
I searched the world over in Mexico, India, Bali, Thailand – being multi-lingual helped in my endeavours! Once I began bringing jewellery designs that were actually mine, the brand began to really take off. I understand the essence of what makes a piece fashionable and trendy, yet classic and wearable.
Why did you decide to bring this brand to QVC?
I've always loved travel and have visited England frequently. I have family in London and Kent, so I feel at home here (even in my cowboy boots!). It will be exciting to introduce my jewellery to a new audience. I want to be able to share with the viewers of QVC UK the special attributes of Barse jewellery.
Tune in to QVC TV today (Friday 22nd March) at 2pm to see the full collection, but if you can't wait until then, here is a little sneak peek…

New Publications of Ami's Music
The Aminadav Aloni Music Foundation is working diligently toward the publication of Ami's entire body of work. The most recent achievements:
Both are available from Transcontinental Music.
Music for Isaiah's Consolations
Congregation Emanu-El in San Francisco was holding a Cantorial Concert in honor of the 10th anniversary of their Cantor, Roslyn Barak. As part of the concert, Cantor Barak and the Emanu-El choir performed Ami's recently completed "Isaiah's Consolations." Ami sat rapt, in the audience, deeply involved with each sound.
At the end of the pieces, and after tremendous applause, Cantor Barak spoke to the audience about Ami and this music, and looked out to the audience to find him. Ami, not looking for praise or attention, shrank back in his seat while Cantor Barak looked around for him. I happily pointed him out, and Cantor Barak asked him to stand for the audience to see him. He humbly rose from his seat, waved to the audience, threw a kiss to Cantor Barak, and shyly sat back down in his seat.
Once again, his music had brought great joy to many, and he had been satisfied to simply be part of the audience. How proud I was to be sitting next to this great artist and friend, a man who was always more interested in the music than in celebrity.

January 10th was a date that was indelibly etched in the minds of viewers of The Game. At 10:00pm hash tags like #thegame began to dominate twitter. Fortunately, the show picked up exactly where things left off last season. Derwin suspects Mel had an abortion, while an overdosed Jenna appears on the doorstep of her now ex boyfriend Malik. Tasha Mac is bitter over her now defunct relationship with Melanie after she dropped Derwin as a client. Jason Pitts sarcasm and troubled daughter Brit Brat were also in tow. Appearances were also made by minor characters Janae, McHottie and a now married Trey Wiggs. I didn't even notice that Kelly was missing from the show and frankly I didn't care. Did you miss Kelly?
I don't want to spoil it for those who plan on catching the repeat but I need to discuss some issues with the show. The laugh track in the show was upsetting because it felt so forced. I didn't laugh for roughly 25 minutes (maybe longer) despite the laugh track. The reason I noted the fact that I didn't laugh was because the "jokes" were not well written and the punch lines were more like light zingers. Some people were complaining that the show is filled with too much drama and the writers need to get back to comedy. In my opinion this show was never a comedy, it always had drama and that's what I enjoyed about it. I just think the jokes that were present in previous seasons were executed better than what was shown in Tuesday night's episode. Was it me or were the jokes a little dry Tuesday night? Nevertheless, it was not enough to get me to even think about changing the channel.
Growing up???? Jason Pitts learns that Brit Brat has followed in his footsteps by dating people who are Caucasian. Surprisingly, Jason is troubled by this revelation and tries to convince Brit that he has indeed dated black women. In an unexpected twist, Jason ends up married to Chardonnay, a new character played by R&B singer Brandy aka BRocka. I appreciated seeing a new side of Jason Pitts but I almost feel like his character was rushed into telling Chardonnay about his painful childhood memories. We have known Jason Pitts for years now and it took him a while to open up to his now ex wife Kelly let alone a stranger. I have a feeling Brandy and Pitts they will remain married- what do you think? I don't necessarily like the pairing of Chardonnay and Jason Pitts but it may be a coupling that will grow on me. Don't get me wrong I like Brandy and I am very excited that she has joined The Game but maybe I would have paired her with Malik or someone else. I do like Jenna though. If I were in charge, I perhaps would have paired Pitts with Kerry Washington or someone else, I don't know what it is but something feels off in terms of their look together…..time will tell.
What I Hated.....
Jenna's poorly executed portrayal of substance abuser- her skin is gorgeous though .
What I loved....
Trey Wigs as the father of Mel's baby- I think we will see him again. I loved the Trey Wigs scenes in previous episodes. He is a guy that really liked Mel quirks included , not that Derwin doesn't but Trey really was in love so I just felt for the guy.
I said OH SNAP (yes I still say snap..lol)....
When Janae took a family pic with baby DJ and Derwin the said to Mel –" maybe now is a good time to take out the cupcakes" like Mel was the help or something. - LOL
Let's Stay Together
Did you watch Let's Stay Together? OK my big problem is they never ever got to the root of the issue of Charles, the runaway groom. I know that he said he went to get the poem but after hearing the horrible poem it was clear that he didn't run out to get the poem. What gives? I feel like that was just swept under the rug and then they had an intimate wedding in the living room….ummm ok.
Another swept under the run issue was that of Tasha fawning over her old college sweetheart. She was downright giddy over seeing her ex, I thought it was disrespectful to her union and the husband and she was never taught a lesson of some sort. I remember last season when she didn't even want her husband to work with a particular client because she sensed the woman liked her husband. Despite that, she thinks it's ok to have dinner, and drinks with her ex and then go back to his house to set up his computer????? WHAT? Who does that? The episode ended with the couple acting as if things were dandy. Unless Troy will reappear in later episodes this episode felt incomplete.
Many newcomers tuned in to see the much hyped introduction of Kyla Pratt on the show. However, Kyla was no where in sight episode one. What were your thoughts? Lets Stay together was trending too….

I have found Iranian reports concerning the (current) so-called Joint Plan of Action with Iran as well as the arrangement in process to be more reliable than those deriving from official sources in the Obama administration. This, however, is where I draw the line:
Secretary of State John Kerry told his Iranian counterpart that he wished the United States had a leader more like Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, according to comments made by a senior Iranian cleric and repeated in the country's state-run media.
Ayatollah Alam al-Hoda claimed during Friday prayer services in Iran that in negotiations over Tehran's contested nuclear program, Kerry told the country's foreign minister that he "wished the U.S. had a leader like Iran's supreme leader," according to a Persian-language report on the remarks published by the Asriran news site.
"In the negotiations Kerry told [Iranian Foreign Minister Javad] Zarif that he [Kerry] wished U.S. had a leader like Iran's supreme leader," according to Alam al-Hoda, who is a senior member of the Iran's powerful Assembly of Experts.
Although the truth value of the ayatollah's statement is likely lacking, the statement signifies:
Saeed Ghasseminejad, an Iranian dissident and fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD), said U.S. overtures to Iran at the negotiating table have failed to win it any respect from the Islamic Republic's leaders.
"President Obama thinks that by making more concessions he can gain the trust and respect of Iranian leaders," Ghasseminejad said. "However, Iranian leaders neither trust him nor respect him.
"Seeing unprecedented weakness in the U.S. president, Iranian leaders do not fear the United States anymore. Partnership, trust, and alliance between the radical Islamist regime of Tehran and United States cannot and should not exist."
In short, their Supreme Leader has our Supreme Leader's number.


text: DigitalLA to Get New York Jets Games on the RadioBy Matthew Fleischer|August 12, 2011 ShareBy Matthew Fleischer|August 12, 2011 Share Los Angeles may have a tentative stadium deal. But we still don't have a football team lined up. Rumors are we're after the San Diego Chargers. One team we definitely won't be getting is the New York Jets. But that isn't stopping "ESPN 710" KSPN-AM from putting their games on the radio. Starting next season, Angelenos will be able to hear all 16 Jets games live on the radio. KSPN execs are obviously hoping folks are still curious about the exploits of former USC star Mark Sanchez, now QB of the Jets."It's an honor to be able to bring Mark Sanchez back to LA and back to his huge local fan base," KSPN VP/General Manager Scott McCarthy said in a statement. "There is tremendous passion for the NFL here in LA, and this partnership with an elite franchise will further energize the Southland's sizable population of football fans."Sounds good and all. But this Fishie would rather listen to Matt Leinart as he curses and stews while riding the bench in Houston. Sharehttp://adweek.it/2l5NKAd copy Adweek Adweek

The renewable energy industry — which includes wind power, solar, biofuels made from corn or other organic substances — exists because of government mandates and taxpayer subsidies.
Don't believe me? Listen to mega-investor Warren Buffet. He explained in 2014 why his company, Berkshire Hathaway, invests in wind energy: "For example, on wind energy, we get a tax credit if we build a lot of wind farms. That's the only reason to build them. They don't make sense without the tax credit."
Notice Buffet didn't say the taxpayer subsidies are a "good" reason for investing in wind farms, but "the only" reason.
The Financial Times notes,, "Berkshire's Energy unit also receives tax credits for renewable power generation — reporting $258 [million] of wind energy tax credits in 2014, and $913 [million] of investment tax credits in 2012 and 2013 for opening new solar power plants."
So U.S. taxpayers shelled out at least $1.17 billion in tax breaks for billionaire Buffet in just two years. Is this what Democrats mean when they complain about tax breaks for the rich?
The House Republican tax reform plan begins clawing back some of those subsidies, including the one receiving the most attention — the per-vehicle tax credit of up to $7,500 for electric cars.
Defenders of the credit warn that eliminating it will likely mean the end of U.S. plug-in electric vehicle sales — except, perhaps, for Tesla. They also note that some states mandate that electric vehicles make up a certain percentage of car sales, and eliminating the credit will make it harder to reach those state-based goals.
But the tax credit was supposed to be temporary, to offset high R&D and start-up costs and promote early sales, until the electric vehicle market got on its feet. Besides, the primary users of that credit are high earners who can afford electric vehicles, most of which are significantly more expensive than cars and trucks with fossil fuel-burning engines. That means that middle-class workers are subsidizing high-income workers' driving preferences.
The wind industry also takes a hit in the House tax bill by reducing the Production Tax Credit from 2.4 cents per-kilowatt hour to 1.5 cents for new projects. And solar energy loses a 30 percent Investment Tax Credit — which under current law is scheduled to drop to 10 percent — for large solar projects beginning construction after 2027.
News reports also assert that the House Republicans' tax reform proposal maintains tax breaks for the oil and gas industry. And the Congressional Budget Office does claim that the U.S. provided about $18.4 billion in subsidies and tax breaks to the fossil fuel and renewable energy industries in 2016, with 75 percent going to renewable fuels and 25 percent to fossil fuels. But that claim is misleading.
The International Energy Agency does not include the U.S. among countries that subsidize fossil fuels. Neither does the Financial Times energy subsidy assessment, though the Financial Times does claim the U.S. is the second largest subsidizer of renewable energy after Germany. So what gives?
Tax breaks for fossil fuels are generally applied to standard operating expenses such as exploration and depletion costs. Those are costs of doing business in the oil and gas industry and should be normal business write-offs.
Fortunately, Republicans also propose "immediate expensing" for all businesses, which means companies could write off capital expenses the year the money is spent rather than depreciating the asset over several years. That one change could make moot most of the supposed "tax breaks" for the oil and gas industry.
Scaling back or ending renewable energy and electric vehicle tax breaks, as the House Republican plan does, would come closer to putting renewable energy on a level playing field with fossil fuels, while saving the government money.
The Senate Republican plan, by contrast, generally retains the current tax breaks.
Governments shouldn't be in the business of picking winners and losers, which Washington has done all too often, especially during the Obama years — and especially in the renewable energy space. Companies need to compete without taxpayer subsidies, letting consumers determine which companies — and industries — thrive and which don't survive.

This section describes
the essential methodology used to value investments
in a business. There are always two essential questions
- Cash flows (returns)
An investment's value depends on the cash flow (or
cash flows) that you anticipate it will provide over
the period of ownership. To have value, the investment
need not provide constant returns. Intermittent cash
flows, a single cash payment and even declining cash
flows have value. (More 4.1.1>>)
4.1.2 - Required return (discount
An asset's riskiness affects its value. The greater
the uncertainty of cash flows, the lower their value.
Risk can be factored into the valuation process by either
increasing the discount rate or formalizing it in a
model (such as the Capital Asset Pricing Model) that
relates risk (ß) and returns. (More
4.1.3 - Discounted cash flow (DCF)
The value of an asset is the present value of all
expected future cash flows -- that is, cash flows discounted
to present value. (More 4.1.3>>)

You'd think that playing "The Vampire Diaries" villainous vampire-werewolf hybrid would keep Joseph Morgan busy, but the true artist never sleeps! Our favorite bad guy directed a short film, "Revelation," over the summer, starring "Vampire Diaries" witch Persia White, best known from her role on "Girlfriends." Now, Morgan has finally debuted the highly-anticipated thirty-second trailer.
The whole movie is about ten minutes long, and Morgan has submitted it for consideration in several festivals. In time, he plans to make the film available for fans to view online.
"Ultimately, the goal is to stream it online for free, but
unfortunately, for some of the festivals we submitted it to, like
Cannes, having it available online would immediately disqualify us, so
I'm trying to do everything in the right order," Morgan tells us. "I do feel
a bit bad, because I tweeted about it so much and haven't been able to
release it yet, but my hope is eventually to have a screening in Atlanta
and then to make it available for free online."
Judging by the thirty-second sneak peek, we're in for ten harrowing minutes when we finally get to see the whole thing. Just that final second of the trailer is going to haunt our nightmares tonight!
Morgan is currently gearing up to star in an upcoming backdoor pilot for his own "Vampire Diaries" spinoff, titled "The Originals," which will see his character move to New Orleans' supernatural hotbed, the French Quarter. The pilot will air April 25, 2013, as an episode of "The Vampire Diaries."

text: Brand Marketing Traffic Accident By Mike Shields|November 28, 2010 Share By Mike Shields|November 28, 2010 Share Since Web sites have been counting traffic, they've bitterly complained about their Nielsen or comScore numbers. "We reach twice as many uniques as they say" is a common contention. "Those guys are a joke" is another often-heard diss. Many grouse that employing data from panels in any way, shape or form in a medium that can track every pixel is backwards. Yet there are major problems with using a site's own data, according to the third-party researchers—you can double count people who delete their cookies or log on from work and at home, for example. As part of a compromise, comScore has begun blending panel data with server data—appeasing some while driving others nuts since year-over-year comparisons are now laden with asterisks. Meanwhile, Nielsen recently admitted to a serious problem with audience undercounting. A slew of alternative players have emerged, such as Quantcast, Compete and Google, which promise more precise tracking tools that will count user activity on a page-by-page level.

The Trainer's Visit
Part 1
It was Tuesday before the trainer arrived. To be perfectly candid, I thought taking five days to reply to my plea for help was not what I would have done had the roles been reversed. Considering the gravity of the circumstances, I would have been there immediately or, at most, the next day. Anything longer seemed inappropriate considering the urgency of both the charges and the state of my health. Had I know she would not come out immediately, I'd have called someone else but it just never occurred to me she would take this long to respond.
When I got the call she was finally coming, I was definitely frustrated. I had spent those days in self-deprecating behavior believing I had no one but myself to blame for the problems on my farm. At no point then was I allowing myself any kind of understanding due to the gravity of my illness. If my horses were suffering the buck stopped at me and I carried that distorted responsibility like the albatross it was.
With word the trainer was actually coming, I put aside my feelings of frustration thinking I should probably be grateful she showed up at all. I needed input I could trust to determine the condition of my herd.
In hindsight I realize her untimely response was probably a more true indicator of her intent than her words; reflecting a nonchalance more indicative of her true attitude about my horses and me but more likely all horses and people in general. Her motives were more about what she can get from any situation than how she can help but I was too sick to discern that. She preyed on my vulnerability like the vulture she is.
Too overpowered by pain and weakness, I was beyond being able to do another farm tour. I had not recuperated from the last so my body was not capable of sustaining the kind of effort it would take to get through the barns viewing each horse and getting important feedback no matter how badly I wanted to do so.
Not wanting to compromise the evaluation because of my weakened condition, I had a plan to get the information I needed without me having to step foot in a single barn. On the computer I set up stall charts with instructions on where to begin and how to proceed. Each horse had its own line with a location for notes about weight, condition, feet whatever might be necessary.
Dave was sent around with this paperwork on a clipboard to accompany Crystal Baker so I would have a record of what was said about each horse. He was instructed to make notes on everything she said about each horse. I didn't want to be relying on his memory or communication skills. I needed this right so I had an accurate picture of my horses' needs so I could fix them.
I had the progression laid out in exactly the way I proceed when I show people the horses. The pages were set up like this: first barn begin on left, name of the horse in stall 1 Suede, horse in stall 2 Rhet, horse in stall 3 Storm. Move to the right side. Horse in stall 4 Reflection. Go to the hay barn and so on and so on. Not a single horse was skipped.
The reason I did this was because I didn't want to rely on Dave's memory or mine. I figured without the information written down, I would forget what I had been told before I could even utilize the It.
Before they got through, Jessica showed up so I asked her to take over for Dave. Knowing my husband is pretty sparse with his words, I instructed Jessica to take extensive notes so I would have the most accurate representation of what Crystal had to say. Little did I know when it was all said and done these notes would display specific misrepresentation of the horses' condition that would probably have gone unnoticed without them.
Another interesting aspect was Dave's note and Jessica's were very similar and sparse. Each indicated he/she had written everything that was said about a horse's condition. In hindsight I look at those notes as deliberately vague. Considering what I had asked for, there were few indications that any horse was anything more or less than thin but her words to me told a different story. Trying to use the list to tell me what I had wanted to know was impossible because the information was not there.
Her verbal assessment to me of the herd was not what caused the most harm because its effects were short lived. The most detrimental and far reaching part of her "help" to me where the seeds she planted with her words of advice. The damage caused there would pervade and affect my decision making long after the lies about the horses' condition was exposed.
To be continued.....
NOTE: This trainer called me last night having heard about the background post I had done. She asked me when "When did we not become friends?" When I tried to answer that question, she continually cut me off, which I then did as well, because I was not going to listen to her manipulations. She insisted I am twisting my words which is not something I am prone to doing. The only people I know who would accuse me of that happen to be those people I confront and some I have exposed for their inappropriate behavior.
Most people would tell you I am honest even when it is painful and that I call things as I see them. I try hard to tell all sides of the story.
With that being said, I will be explaining how I have come to my opinions about this trainer, what she did here and what I believe her motives to be. Some I left unsaid in the background post but I would be more than happy to post the specifics that led to those opinions as well. The bottom line is this woman lies as easily as she breathes air and what she did here was so far from "help" that I can not possibly leave it out of my story. Her behavior had an impact on my life that was not good. She affected how I dealt with difficult issues of the past two years. Her influence in my life will be no more easily forgotten than that of Angie Milles and Richard Galarza.......... so move over Crystal Baker, that's quite some company you have joined.

I really liked the flat I have to publish today. It is a single plant, with quite different environments, but with a very comfortable circulation. The dining room can be rather small, but the rest is a worth seeing.
It is single-storey, home access through a small gallery, enter directly to the living room, furniture distribution creates a space, next to the door of the master bedroom, which functions as a receiver. The living room is connected to the kitchen through a "window" type bar. In addition, the kitchen is connected to the dining room by another bar. From here we can enter a sector where we have two bedrooms and a bathroom on the one hand, and the laundry room and the porch overlooking the back garden on the other.

Keo Woolford
'I Land'
by Carmel Morgan
May 2, 2009 -- Dance Place, Washington, DC
The description of Hawai'ian native Keo Woolford's one-man show "I Land" admittedly intrigues. It's not often you see a performance billed as combining hula and hip hop. Woolford's semi-autobiographical tour de force does that and more, and the multi-talented Woolford does it all with aplomb. "I Land," which was created by Woolford in collaboration with director Roberta Uno, is both reverent (he refers to one hula master as a "Hula God") and irreverent. The melding of touching and uproariously funny moments makes for a great evening of dance/theater.
Woolford was introduced to hula dance while he was a high school student. Clearly a natural-born performer, in "I Land" Woolford entertains the audience with tales of his first awkward teenage hip shakes as he tried to impress the hula teacher whom he idolized. In a spunky and sometimes sidesplitting narrative, he guides the audience through his adventures of young adulthood – his first taste of alcohol, drugs, born-again Christianity, and even a taste of stardom as a member of a pop band, which was supposedly Hawai'i's answer to 'N-Sync. Woolford perfectly captures the humor and heartache of coming of age in the 1980s. Despite the fact that his story is highly personal and refers a great deal to Hawai'ian culture (the program notes contain a glossary of terms), it is easy to relate to him. "I Land" like Hawai'i itself, remains warm and inviting.
The approximately eighty minute performance of "I Land," which has no intermission, flies by quickly since the singing, dancing, and spoken word are seamlessly crafted. The hula choreography by Robert Cazimero and the hip hop choreography by Rokafella add punch to the work, but a true dance fan would probably complain that there should be more dancing. Although dancing is certainly an important part of the show, what comes across more than fine technique is Woolford's pure passion for dance. Shirtless and grass-skirted as he dances hula or breakdancing in a t-shirt and jeans, Woolford is an utter beauty to behold.
Interspersed with the levity "I Land" provides are serious messages about colonialism, identity, and the sacred nature of hula. Woolford pointedly demonstrates that hula can be a powerfully masculine dance form that extends far beyond the exotic commodity ugly tourists hunger to see. Woolford's pride in the art of hula drives the performance and ultimately makes his show a tremendous success. The 2007 Solo Performance of the Year awarded by L.A. Stage Scene to Woolford for "I Land" is well-deserved.

Proposed Canon
Attuning describes the process by which a wielder of an Arkentool becomes connected with that tool, changing and enhancing its powers.
In the hands of Prince Ansom, the Arkenpliers were a good combat weapon, and particularly damaging to uncroaked.
Once they were attuned to Wanda Firebaugh, the Arkenpliers were able to create seemingly unlimited quantities of Decrypted, a brand new unit type superior to uncroaked in seemingly every way.
The attuned is connected to their artifact by a sort of string, possibly a g-string. These strings also connect the attuned user to units associated with their Arkentool, such as Wanda's connection to the decrypted. Maggie speculates it is possible to break these strings.
Attuned Arkentools and Their Wielders
- Stanley the Tool and the Arkenhammer
- Wanda Firebaugh and the Arkenpliers
- Charlie and the Arkendish
- Judy Gale and the Arkenshoes
- Blair and the Arkendish (croaked by Judy Gale)

Questions & Facts
Learn More About Propane
Besides the information below, we also have helpful information and videos in our safety section. If you can not find the answer to your propane questions please contact us and let us help.

What does propane smell like—The "Sniff" Test?
Propane has a strong, unpleasant smell like rotten eggs, a skunk's spray or a dead animal. Because propane is an odorless gas, manufacturers add this smell deliberately to help alert customers in the event of a leak. Not sure you'd recognize the smell of propane? Give us a call. We'd be happy to send you a scratch-and-sniff brochure or let you smell the propane the next time we are out filling your tank.
Propane is an approved alternative fuel in both the Clean Air Act of 1990 and the National Energy Policy Act of 1992. It is nontoxic and insoluble in water. Because it is used as a gas, it does not spill, pool or leave a residue. It's a safe fuel to store underground, as it will not contaminate groundwater, even in the unlikely event of a leak.
And its carbon footprint, a measure of it's impact on the environment, is much less than other fuels. A gallon of propane burned produces about half the carbon dioxide (CO2) as a gallon of fuel oil. Compared per Btu of fuel, propane releases less CO2 than ethanol, gasoline, bio-diesel, kerosene, or coal.
In traditional tank water heating, electric heaters produce 150 times the greenhouse gas emissions of a propane heater. A tankless propane water heater can even further reduce emissions.

Using propane benefits more than just your pocketbook. You're probably aware of the fact that propane is a less expensive alternative to electricity. But do you know the other benefits of this exceptional energy? Here's a sample of some of the ways propane can make your life better.
Warm, Fuzzy Feeling
The heat generated by propane makes you feel good. A typical propane-powered heating system warms air to about 140 degrees. Compare this to a typical electric system, which only warms the air to 96-98 degrees, and you'll understand why electric heat feels like a cold draft on your skin.
Better Efficiency
Propane gas stoves and fireplaces also heat more evenly and more efficiently than wood-burning ones. They can also heat a larger area, meaning less reliance on primary home heating systems and significant cost savings. Wood-burning fireplaces can lose up to 90 percent of their heat through the chimney. Fireplace heat also tends to fade just a few feet from the hearth.
Cleaner Burning
A Colorado Clean Air Campaign study showed gas logs will burn 40 times longer than wood-burning fireplaces and still not produce the same emissions. The difference is so significant that in some states the use of wood-burning fireplaces is prohibited on days when air quality is poor.
Lower Cost
Propane gas fireplaces can produce twice as much heat as wood-burning ones at about a third of the cost. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that a gas fireplace costs 30 percent to 60 percent less per hour to operate than a wood-burning fireplace.
Turning to a more efficient propane furnace, water heater, clothes dryer, range or other propane-powered appliances will save you money, help the environment and keep you warm.
Turn down your water heater from the standard 140 degrees to 130 degrees. You could save more than 10 percent on your water-heating bill.

November 05, 2013Reviewer: David in Ohio* First, I'd like to give some back ground. I'm a competitive bodybuilder in the NPC who has either placed or won my last 4 competitions. (4th,1st,4th,1st). I have been training for the last 25 years and am about to turn 40.
Training- High Volume/Heavy Weights- Power-Bodybuilding Style workouts with an emphasis on Squats,Deadlifts,and Incline BB Press.
Nutrition- Moderate carbs with the majority around training.
Other Supplements- Glutamine,BCAA's
In the month that I was on the Bulk Andro Stack.
Bodycomp- I have gone from 180 to 193-194, while keeping a 32-33 inch waist. BF% has stayed the same at 13-14%- Keep in mind that this is a real bf, not some made up number. Most people say they are 10 or lower and they are closer to 20.
Strength- On every lift I have gotten tremendously stronger. Examples: 1. My leg press has gone from 16 plates 20 plates for 8 reps to 28 plates for 6 reps. Deadlift- has gone from 405 for 5 as a max. Now 455 for 5. Most of the pin loaded machines in the gym (ie leg ext, Rows, Triceps) I am either doing the stack or doing the stack plus adding weight.
Blood Test- I also had a blood test done after this month. My testosterone was 800, my free test was 1.8. Liver enzymes were well within normal ranges, and my estrogen only went up a little over baseline.
Overall Impressions- I have been extremely happy with these products and will continue to use them. They appear to be well made, effective, and most importantly safe.

Karole Armitage, known as the 'punk ballerina' is the Artistic Director of the New York-based Armitage Gone! Dance Company. She was rigorously trained in classical ballet and began her professional career as a member of the Ballet du Grand Théâtre de Genève, Switzerland (1973-1975), a company devoted exclusively to the repertory of George Balanchine who was director of the company at that time. In 1976, she was invited to join Merce Cunningham's company, where she remained for five years, (1975-1981) performing leading roles in Cunningham's landmark works. Through her unique and acute knowledge of the aesthetic values of Balanchine and Cunningham, Armitage has created her own "voice" in the dichotomy of classical and modern dance, and is seen by some critics as the true choreographic heir to the two masters of 20th century American dance. In 2016, Armitage was honored with a Radcliffe Fellowship at Harvard University and a Simons Fellowship at The University of Kansas to study Native American Plains Culture with a focus on Pawnee, Kanza and Osage tribes. In 2017 she is beginning a muliti year Fellowship as an MIT Media Lab Directors Fellow.
Armitage created her first piece in 1979, followed by the iconic Drastic-Classicism in 1981. Throughout the 80s, she led her own New York-based dance company, The Armitage Ballet. Commissions from the Paris Opera Ballet and American Ballet Theatre led to choreographic commissions in Europe throughout the 80s, 90s and into the early 2000s with projects that continue to this day. She has created new works on companies from The Bolshoi Ballet in Moscow to the Tasmanian Dance company including the Ballet de Monte Carlo, Lyon Opera Ballet, Ballet Nacional de Cuba, The Washington Ballet, The Boston Ballet, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, The Kansas City Ballet, The Greek National Company, The Bern Ballet, The Boston Ballet and Rambert Dance Company of London. Armitage served as director of the 45-member Ballet of Florence Italy (1996–2000) presenting classical repertoire, modern masters and contemporary works; directed the Biennale of Contemporary Dance in Venice (2004), and served as resident choreographer for the Ballet de Lorraine in France (2000–2004). After her company's successful season at the Joyce in 2004, Armitage's focus shifted to her New York-based company, Armitage Gone! Dance.
Armitage is renowned for pushing the boundaries to create contemporary works that blend dance, music, visual art and science to engage in philosophical questions about the search for meaning. She joins a legacy of process-focused experiemntal dance that embraces the ballet and modern dance heritages as well. She is inspired by disparate, non-narrative sources, from 20th century physics, to 16th century Florentine fashion, to pop culture and new media. In her hands, the classic vocabulary is given a needed shock to its system, with speed, fractured lines, abstractions and symmetry countermanded by asymmetry. Music is her script and she has collaborated with contemporary and experimentalist composers such as John Luther Adams, Thomas Adès, Rhys Chatham, Terry Dame, Vijay Iyer, David Lang, Lukas Ligeti, Lois V Vierk and John Zorn. The scores can be marked by extreme lyricism as well as dissonance, noise and polyrhythms. The sets and costumes for her works are often designed by leading artists in the contemporary art world, including Karen Kilimnik, Jeff Koons, Vera Lutter, Brice Marden, David Salle and Phillip Taaffe. Her scientific collaborators include Dr. Brian Greene (Columbia University) and Dr. Paul Ehrlich (Stanford University). The full-length works on theoretical physics and climate change respectively were presented at the World Science Festival and in the Milstein Hall of Ocean Life at the American Museum of Natural History.
Armitage's work is at once both esoteric and popular, having choreographed two Broadway productions (Passing Strange and Hair, which garnered her a tony® nomination), videos for Madonna and Michael Jackson, several Merchant-Ivory films and Cirque du Soleil's 2012 tent show, Amaluna. In 2016 she created a work for the Boston Ballet to Miles Davis' Bitches Brew and Stravinsky's Agon for the London Philharmonia conducted by Esa-Pekka Salonen. As the 2016 Artistic Director of Italy's Ravello Fesival for an evening of American Dance, Armitage invited New York City Ballet, Martha Graham Dance Company, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, William Forsythe, Richard Move and her company to participate in a survey of the techniques and philosophies of American Dance set into motion by Native Americans performing the Prairie Chicken Dance.
She has directed operas from the baroque and contemporary repertoire for prestigious houses of Europe, including Teatro di San Carlo in Naples, Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris, the Lyric Opera in Athens, Het Muzik Theater in Amsterdam. She choreographed The Cunning Little Vixen in 2011 and A Dancer's Dream in 2013 for the New York Philharmonic presented at Avery Fischer Hall at Lincoln Center and provided choreography for Marie Antoinette, by playwright David Adjmi, at the American Repertory Theatre Harvard and Yale Repertory Theater.
Her work has been the subject of three documentaries made for television: The South Bank Show (1985), directed by David Hinton and Wild Ballerina (1988), directed by Mark Kidel. Armitage is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship. In 2009, she was awarded France's most prestigious award, Commandeur dans l'orde des Arts et des Lettres. She is the 2012 recipient of the artist-in-residence grant at the Chinati Foundation, founded by Donald Judd in Marfa, Texas, and received an honorary Doctorate of the Arts from the University of Kansas in 2013. In 2016 she was honored with both a Radcliffe Fellowship at Harvard University and a Simons Fellow at The University of Kansas to study Native American Plains Culture. Armitage is currently an MIT Media Lab Directors Fellow.
