Joining a weight-loss program may be the best bet for obese people who want to lose weight, a new study suggests.
Obese survey participants who reported losing at least 10 percent of their body weight in the previous year were more likely to have joined a weight-loss program, compared with those who hadn't lost that amount of weight.
Participants who reported losing at least 5 percent of body weight in the previous year were more likely to say they ate less fat, exercised more and used prescription weight-loss medications.
Eating diet foods and products, taking nonprescription diet pills, and using popular diets were less successful strategies, according to the researchers.
"This suggests that the structure of being in a program may be more important," said study researcher Dr. Jacinda Nicklas, of Harvard Medical School in Boston. Moreover, "it is possible that some dieters may be overeating diet products because they believe they are healthy, or low in calories."
The study showed associations between weight-loss strategies and actual weight loss, not cause-and-effect links, and more research is needed to confirm the findings.
About a third of people in the U.S. are obese , and 50 to 70 percent of them are trying to lose weight, according to the study.
Nicklas and her colleagues analyzed data collected on 4,000 obese adults during the National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey conducted from 2001 to 2006. The survey collects demographic, health, and health behavior information from U.S. adults.
The survey showed that 63 percent of the respondents had tried to lose weight in the last year; regardless of whether they were successful, these participants were shown a list of weight-loss strategies and asked which ones they used.
About 500 of the study participants reported losing 10 percent of their body weight or more in the previous year. About 1,000 said they lost 5 percent.
About 10 percent of study participants said they joined a weight-loss program.
There was no evidence that liquid diets, nonprescription diet pills and popular diets were linked with successful weight loss, according to the study. In fact, people who reported losing more than 10 percent of their body weight were less likely to report eating diet foods and products, compared with those who lost less.
In the study, prescription weight-loss medications were associated with successful weight loss , though the researchers said only 3.5 percent of participants reported using them. Nonprescription weight-loss pills, which were not linked with weight loss, were used by about 10 percent of participants.
"These results tell us that Americans use many weight-loss strategies that are not associated with significant weight loss, including nonprescription weight loss medications. Public health efforts directing Americans to adopt more proven methods may be warranted," Nicklas said.
The study will be published in the May issue of the American Journal of Preventive Medicine.
Pass it on: For obese people, joining a weight-loss program yields the best results, a new study shows.

Griefboy, I believe Brundelfly has one for sale if you're still looking.
Griefboy, I believe Brundelfly has one for sale if you're still looking.
For me It was a screen used ape soldier rifle and back ground masks from the first Planet of the apes movie. I did snag two screen used make up appliances that I still have, and a Hawkman helmet from Flash Gordon, but to this day I regret not getting that gorilla mask, especially as the dealer only wanted £25 for it back in the early 1980's.
Pretty much any of the batman cowls from batman & robin
A WW2 re-enactor supply house called At The Front sold uniforms, field gear and plastic weapons from "Saving Private Ryan" at downright ridiculously cheat prices, even then. I bought some of the stuff but I really wish I'd bought an awful lot more. It was all so cheap, people were buying the stuff and modifying it to use in re-enactments.
I've also had the chance to buy, but turned down:
*Complete Imperial soldier uniform from the crew of War Rocket Ajax from "Falsh Gordon"
*"Total recall" federal guard helmet for just $40 (I still wonder why I didn't snatch that up)
*"Planet of the Apes" rifle housing
*"Band of Brothers" complete T-5 parachute
*"Space Cowboys" space shuttle liftoff-entry suit (I passed because I thought at the time it was probably stolen from the production, now I wonder if it was really from the movie at all)
*"Memphis Belle" (1990 movie) screen-used A-2 jacket
*ROTJ Stormtrooper armor pieces, found by a friend of mine while picking through the California 'Endor' filming site, confirmed by three other friends of mine that saw as he stumbled across them all in one spot
*Apollo space suit from the TV series, "Space"
*"The Story of GI Joe" Burgess Meredith's 'Ernie Pyle' field jacket. It was NOT cheap but man I regret not biting the bullet on that
*BUT MOST OF ALL: "Aliens" screen-used pulse rifle complete metal housing, only missing the shotgun and Tommy gun. I missed that one because the guy wanted a small fortune and I didn't have the money but man do I wish I'd been able to buy that...
My god there's so many items from Battlestar I missed but off the top of my head...
-Tyrol Orange Decksuit
-Gaeta Dogtags
-Apollo Flightsuit
And so many more things..... Oh well I'm still looking for pretty much anything Battlestar if any collectors are reading this and fancy selling!
the prop store was at c5 and was suppose to have had a screen used scout helmet for sale. i was going to try and buy it, but they guy was reluctant to negotiate the price with me... i should have bought it anyway. kicking myself over it.
Been lucky and have gotten everything I wanted.

Ask the Passengers by A.S. King
This novel snuck under the wire to get into my top three young adult novels
for 2012. I read it in one breathless night, and the next morning, when I saw
an airplane flying overhead, I burst into tears. Which, I admit, probably seems like a crazy response, and fairly so. But like all the best, most special books, Ask The Passengers doesn't just satisfy the mind while it's being read-- it also colors life long after it has been put down, making otherwise banal things, like the sight of airplanes overhead, illuminated.
King uses complicated ideas,
recurring imagery and deceptively simple language to craft a story of
incredible honesty and pathos. Those who were unlucky to be around me
in the days after I read it were
subjected to my many gushings-and even with the amount of hyperbolic gushery
I put forth in those days, I'm not sure I did this novel justice. Gorgeous.
Wise. Vibrant. For those who love any of the following authors: David Levithan, Nina LaCour, Sarah Dessen or John Green should certainly take a look.
I cannot wait to pick up more of A. S. King's work. Because if
it's even a FRACTION as good... I may have a new favorite author. For ages 15+ --Reviewed by Maggie, Books Inc. Children's Department Director

Tuesday Products: Plant Pot Holders |
Written by Heleigh Bostwick Tuesday, 24 September 2013 | |||
Ive seen plant pot holders made from all kinds of things from hollowed out slate blocks to of course those macramé hanging baskets popular in the 1970s and Victorian funeral urns to a pair of blue jeans (the worst of the lot in my opinion). So when I discovered these plant pot holders I was overjoyed, except for one thing. UK entrepreneur Kim Jenkins has found a clever way to recycle the discarded sacks used to transport fruits and vegetables to the London markets. These colorful plant pot holders are not only a sustainable garden gift, theyre quite charming and a propos to growing plants. The only problem, is that they only seem to be available for sale in the UK. Each plant pot holder is unique and measures 13 cm. or approximately 5 inches in diameter. I think theyre the prefect outfit to dress up that container herb garden growing on your sunny windowsill. If anyone knows of a similar product in the US, please contact me!

PITTSBURGH, Oct. 16 - Interferon alfa 2b (INTRON A) unequivocally improves overall and relapse-free survival in adult patients who have surgically treated melanoma considered at high risk of recurring, according to results of a definitive study evaluating the use of this agent and comparing it with one of the best-developed anti-melanoma vaccines, GMK. Results of this National Cancer Institute-funded study (E1694), led by John Kirkwood, M.D., at the University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute (UPCI), are being presented Oct. 16 at the Presidential Symposium of the European Society of Medical Oncology in Hamburg, Germany. *
"This report indisputably proves that high-dose interferon alfa 2b is the standard adjuvant therapy for high-risk melanoma patients," stated Dr. Kirkwood, director of the UPCI's Melanoma Center. "It is my hope and expectation that these results will motivate many more physicians who treat melanoma to consider aggressive therapy with this regimen, as well as new clinical trials that build upon this regimen. Doing so could improve patient outcomes for thousands of individuals," added Dr. Kirkwood, who also is vice chairman for research at the University of Pittsburgh's department of medicine.
Study results of E1694 showed that when given at a high dose (20MIU/m2 intravenously and 10MIU/m2 subcutaneously), interferon alfa 2b extends overall survival in surgically treated patients, as well as relapse-free survival, or the amount of time free of disease recurrence. Patients who received the GMK vaccine, by contrast, showed significantly lower overall survival and relapse-free survival. (This study did not include an observation group as a control).
Melanoma is the most life-threatening type of skin cancer, causing nearly 8,000 deaths each year in the United States alone. High-risk patients have a 50 to 80 percent chance of disease recurrence without adjuvant treatment, or additional treatment after surgery, according to Dr. Kirk

National School Choice Week and the Growing Movement for True Educational Reform
Parental choice in education is right for our children, right for our parents and right for our Nation
Parental (School) Choice is an idea whose time has come. It is a matter of true social justice, not what is masquerading as social justice in some circles these days. It is a civil rights issue, a matter of educational freedom and the means to true educational reform.
CHESAPEAKE, VA (Catholic Online) - January 27- February 3, 2013 is National School Choice Week in the United States of America. Around the Nation events are being held to call attention to this rapidly growing movement for true educational reform. This movement crosses political party, social and economic lines.
Some who oppose school choice are entrenched in the current federalized educational bureaucracy and the culture which fuels it. However, increasingly people of every walk of life admit the obvious, our educational system is broken. A growing number are supporting the school choice movement.
In loco parentis - a Latin phrase meaning in the place of, or on behalf of the parents - was the polestar of educational law for years. Now, it is replaced with a top down one size fits all federalized system which has substituted bureaucrats for parents.
The origins of what became the public school system began with families pooling resources in small community schools. Now, parents and local communities have an increasingly smaller role in the educational process.
We need to reconsider our history to chart a path to true educational reform and educational freedom in the future.
The current overly federalized approach to education in the United States is failing. Statistics and experience confirm the obvious. It is time for a change and parental (school) choice is the change needed. It means affirming again that Parents are the ones who should be able to make the choice of how to best extend their own teaching mission outside of the home.
The proper role of Federal, State or Local Government is to support the first government in the home. I believe we should use the phrase Parental Choice. Schools do not make the decision, parents do - or at least they should be able to, no matter what their income.
I am not against government. I simply insist that we remember that government begins in the family. Any good governance must recognize the first government of the family and then follow the social principle called subsidiarity. That principle reminds us that good government is bottom up, not top down, deferring first to the smallest governing unit; not usurping but empowering and helping families.
The teaching of the Catholic Church on the primacy of parents in the educational mission is clear and helpful. In his apostolic exhortation on the family entitled "The Role of the Christian family in the Modern World" (Familiaris Consortio) Blessed Pope John Paul II affirmed the social and political role of the family and called for the development of a "family politics". Here is an insight:
"The right and duty of parents to give education is essential, since it is connected with the transmission of human life; it is original and primary with regard to the educational role of others, on account of the uniqueness of the loving relationship between parents and children; it is irreplaceable and inalienable, and therefore incapable of being entirely delegated to others or usurped by others."
In his "Letter to Families" the late Pope wrote "Parents are the first and most important educators of their own children, and they also possess a fundamental competence in this area; they are educators because they are parents. They share their educational mission with other individuals or institutions, such as the Church and the State. But the mission of education must always be carried out in accordance with a proper application of the Principle of Subsidiarity."
"This implies the legitimacy and indeed the need of giving assistance to the parents, but finds its intrinsic and absolute limit in their prevailing right and actual capabilities. The principle of subsidiarity is thus at the service of parental love, meeting the good of the family unit. For parents by themselves are not capable of satisfying every requirement of the whole process of raising children; especially in matters concerning their schooling and the entire gamut of socialization."
"Subsidiarity thus complements paternal and maternal love and confirms its fundamental nature, inasmuch as all other participants in the process of education are only able to carry out their responsibilities in the name of the parents, with their consent and, to a certain degree, with their authorization."
Parental (School) Choice is an idea whose time has come. It is a matter of true social justice, not what is masquerading as social justice in some circles these days. It is a civil rights issue, a matter of educational freedom and the means to true educational reform.
The opposition of some who often control of the teachers unions to such educational reform shows how far some of these mediating associations have strayed from their primary role. They fail to defer to the first mediating institution of the family.
Parental choice in education is right for our children, right for our parents and right for our Nation.
Men and women of vision are emerging at the State Level to lead this growing movement. I am honored to stand with and support one of these emerging leaders, E.W. Jackson. He is seeking the nomination of the Republican Party as Lieutenant Governor of my home State, the Commonwealth of Virginia.
I just received this Press Release from the Jackson campaign.
Statement of E.W. Jackson on National School Choice Week
E.W. Jackson, Candidate for Lieutenant Governor of Virginia released the following statement to join millions of Americans commemorating National School Choice Week on January 27 - Feb 3, 2013:
"The theme of my campaign for Lieutenant Governor of Virginia is 'Let liberty Light the Way'. Parental Choice in education is a liberty issue and should be a fundamental civil right.
"Parents are the first and best teachers of their children. When they delegate to teachers the role of educating their children, they should not be forced to relinquish safety and educational quality.
"Statistics confirm what we already know: our educational system is broken. The current federal one-size-fits-all approach to education has failed miserably. It is time for parents to reclaim their rightful place in determining where and how their children will be educated. Public policy must affirm and support this parental right."
"As Lieutenant Governor of Virginia I will propose an amendment to the State Constitution to implement parental choice in the Commonwealth."
"The family is the first government and the first school house. We must allow liberty to light the way in Virginia by ensuring the freedom of parents to make educational choices for their children."
Pope Francis Prayer Intentions for December 2013
General Intention: Victimized Children. That children who are victims of abandonment or violence may find the love and protection they need.
Missionary Intention: Prepare the Savior's Coming. That Christians, enlightened by the Word incarnate, may prepare humanity for the Savior's coming.

How can your explain that a mother who has the right to choose life or death for her child should not have the right to choose the school for him. Also, as in Obamacare for his health insurance, when you choose to send your child to the secularized government school there is no "fine", but if you do not accept the terms and conditions of the mandated federal system and wish to be "personally responsible" for the education of your child you are still bound by law to continue your contributions to that system which your moral or religious conscience informs you is corrupting the minds and lowering the intellectual potential of the public. That is nothing less than another form of taxation called "penalties". We have entered the age of FAITH FINES.

Today, the civil rights issues have changed, though too many are still fighting the issues of the 70s. Some think that unless all past issues are resolved to their satisfaction, nothing has changed. Yes, there are still raciest tendencies in some, yes there is sexism from both men and from women (defining, decicing and dealing with others based on their gender/ sex) and other 'isms' that the left loves to champion.
We focus so much on the 'poor' we don't look at contributing factors that make them and keep them poor. We get the pity attitude of 'poor person' and then condemn those who don't deal with them as we in our almighty arrogance think they should be dealt with. BUT without a good education to give them some footing and foundation to do well or better in life, too many fall back into poverty and some stay there. In this country, a good education helps prepare one for more success in life (lots of studies show this).
We should be championing school choice for our education - I was educated in a Catholic school and that was school choice but it cost my parents, as it did many others. If we want to take care of the poor, we should focus on the injustices in the education system - look at the results - drop out rates, low perfroming graduates (not even able to perform at their grade level), many struggle in highere education training and college, not being prepared to take advantage of the opportunities this country offers, despite the obstacles. I know that being stuck in the 70s mentality (which by the way did include some education issues) it is hard to focus today on today's major issue of education needs. Since the education complex and institution includes several reminants of the 70s (unions, democrat party, liberals) it is hard to take action. It's easier to blame conservatives and do little to change the education system. Little improvements are what if focused on - at least we 'tried' is the mantra. That makes us 'good' while they fight the old issues. Too bad - talk about keeping people down and in their place - that is what the lack of a good education does! -

The family is the "first government "and the "first and the best teacher and hence their " choice of education for their children ' are to be respected is but only a logical conclusion which a federal government is to respected. As far as the parents are concerned, in the present context of " moral erosion", a " holistic approach" of " person building" is more important than " creating education a commodity to cater to the national and international requirement". As a matter of fact, in my opinion, the parents' Association should have a say in the 'syllabi fixing' and ' administration of the school', taking into account both the National/ federal requirement and holistic personal development. Brain washing into any ideology whether that of Politics or sects like homo- sexual are to be avoided. The youth are to be trained in such a way that they are capable of " creative thinking" and " choice making" considering human dignity of oneself and of others. while " individuality are to be respected and promoted, " individualism" are to be made aware of. Any " social issues" affecting humanity like war, economic recess, promotion of culture of death have to come under the preview of education. However, despite timely evaluation of the outcome of education policy, parents may not jeopardize the daily administration of the school.

"...they are educators because they are parents." Educator, perhaps, but competent not always possible. Children 14 to 21 years of age who are parents are not competent educators. Schools of choice and right to life political groups do not address a growing and serious problem of parents not prepared to be parents.
I have worked with Charter schools. The corruption and profit motive does not make for good education. They can and do make some people very rich. Parents can be made to feel they have a say in the education of their children, but in reality the control is in the hands of the managers who have little restriction in terms of where they spend the money.

When a niche isn't a niche anymore than what do you do? When you thought what was a niche market, catches up with you and make you obsolete, what do you do? Do you start a new niche? Or continue to work on your niche but offer something more than the competition?
I'm not sure if everyone knows or does this, but before you start a blog, one of the steps in the plan is finding a niche market. A subject that's rather rare but has a very high keyword value I'd say. I've noticed new blogs being pinged to PPS like never before and I've also noticed a certain market that's being populated ever more. Have you ever noticed that there are more new technology genre type blogs being started by a Malaysian?
As far as I know, LiewCF.com was one of the first to start a Malaysian technology blog and then there was KahSoon then SapiensBryan and now ever more, I've seen others like IdealGadget, Geek In Me, AllGadget..etc.
If you ask me, technology blogs are getting pretty stale and these bloggers are challenging each other head on. Not to mention I've not even compared these blogs to the few thousand other tech blogs outside of Malaysia. Most of these blogs offer pretty much the same but some still remain a visitor's favorite for certain reasons.
When selecting a niche, it really depends how you manage to narrow down the subject for your blog. Take tech blogs as an example, technology has a mass the size of a whale when you want to talk about new gadgets. There's the computer, the mobile phone, the cars, the artificial intelligence..and more. Now, if every blogger were to blog about the general subject of technology, you'll end up with a scenario I'm discussing now.
How do you curb this or try to be better than the rest? You could either start slowly introducing your blog as a technology blog with more focus on a certain subject, or offer something that these blogs don't have; a function, a tool or even a contest. It's a really huge challenge if you try to overpower ones blog.
Therefore my friends, before you start blogging seriously, have ascertain something that would make your visitors coming back for more. Blogs that are of personal rants, ramblings, debates, views wouldn't have to worry much of a niche market because everyone's life is unique in their own manner.

I have stayed here several times. I noticed that my room on the third floor was a more up-to-date bed and furniture than what I found a month ago in my room on the first floor.

I was disappointed in the condition of the hotel. I is old and has the feeling and smell of being old. The furniture is very worn.

"A Great stay the was almost Excellent"
The staff at the days inn in bellingham are incredibly helpful and professional. The hotel was maintained to the highest levels of cleanliness, the room felt like I was the first person to ever stay in it.

We picked this hotel as it was close to the college. Upon arrival it was nothing fancy. Friendly front end staff. We reserved the executive queen room. Very happy with the size. Clean room. Bathroom sink looked like it need to be replaced but everything functioning. Ordered a roll away bed that I actually slept on and was very comfortable. Decent breakfast […] selection. Outside pool but warm enough that kids enjoyed it for over an hour. Overall very nice stay, little noise, comfortable beds and great air conditioner. もっと読むHotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ

Upon getting to my room I received a call from her checking if everything was ok. The room was a nice set up. Fridge,, microwave, hair dryer, coffee maker. Just […] about everything you would need for a short stay. Room was clean and bed was very comfortable. The area was fairly quiet I even slept with the windows open and slept like a baby.

Can definitely recommend it for basic rooms.Hotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ

We did not know Bellingham but the area worked pretty well for the Bellis Fair Mall and other shopping areas the we were looking at checking out.Expedia ゲストの適正な口コミ
This hotel is very old - not like "vintage" old. More like "70's" old. Outdated. We noticed it when we walked into the lobby. And when we entered the room, the first thing we smelled was bleach. Strong bleach. Although the bedding was clean, the TV was not a flat screen and the bathroom needed a lot of help. The mirror was worn, the vanity top was cracked […] and old. And the tile in the shower as disgusting. There appeared to be mold in the grout. Probably explains the smell of the bleach. And then the next morning I turned the shower on and found only luke-warm water. When I called the front desk (after my shower), I was told that they needed to "flip a switch" to get me some hot water. Ugh. With all the different hotel options in Bellingham WA, you can bet I will not be staying here again. もっと読むHotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ
"It was clean and had wi-fi"
I literally didn't feel safe here. I took my daughter to orientation at WWU and she stayed with me the first night and I was by myself the second night. I didn't allow maid service while I was there as I was working in the room and had a lot of electronics. For some reason there were big trucks in the parking lot every day/evening and men running around. […] I got what I paid for..... もっと読むExpedia ゲストの適正な口コミ
"Ok for the deal."
The room was alright, clean but a bit in need of some updating. The breakfast was a bit sad and could of used some bagels, fresher fruit and yogurt. I will probably go again, since I will be visiting Bellingham more often, but it wasn't the nicest of hotels.Expedia ゲストの適正な口コミ
"Good hotel for a couple of nights"
It's a 2-star hotel so if you go there with 3 or 4 star expectations, you will be disappointed. It's an older building and there is not an elevator so keep that in mind if you have a bad back. I started out listing all the things that were wrong with the room, and there were several, and I could tell you what they are but I don't want to ruin your surprise. […] It's always an adventure for us when we book through expedia and get a 2-star hotel, but that's part of the fun. Sometimes it's best to spend less on a room that you're only going to sleep in and use the money you save for other stuff. I do want to say that all the staff we encountered were very nice and friendly and accommodating. There were 5 of us and we were comfortable and had all the pillows, shampoos, etc that we needed. The pool guy was out every day cleaning and caring for the pool and was a really nice guy. The breakfast was pretty good, with waffles that you had to toast, cereal, two juices, good hot coffee, English muffins, hard boiled eggs, and blueberry bagels - way better than the 2-star in Vancouver, BC that we stayed in. Also, I was very very pleased that the rooms had real coffee cups for the coffee and glass cups for water, etc. That was really nice. Also, there was a microwave and a fridge, not just a fridge like the other hotel we stayed at. And again, the staff were great. Oh, and my daughter and husband liked the pool - they're the only ones who used it. The location was good too. もっと読むExpedia ゲストの適正な口コミ

They only had a smoking room left. That was the worst of it. Hotel clerk gave me a bottle of freebries At my request and I used 2/3 of the bottle. They I went to dinner and came back and it was better. I don't think I will stay there again.Expedia ゲストの適正な口コミ

"Needs work"
It was an acceptable place to stay, but I was surprised how many small repairs or malfunctions there were in just my room. There was a constant drip inside the toilet so that I had to shut the bathroom door and stuff a towel underneath to get away from the irritating noise. None of the lamps in the room were working - until I realized that none of them […] were plugged in! And plugging them in was not at all easy as there were far too few plugs available in the room. Small irritations each one - but added up to a feeling of dissatisfaction. もっと読むHotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ

Came in late, had a third floor king bedroom room.

"Average older hotel, nothing special."
We checked in at 10pm, parked the in back... parking there puts you even with the second floor making baggage moving more convenient. There were 5 of us guys and were fairly lout and never had a complaint or heard anyone else in the building. Its a bit run down but definitely on the more economical of hotels. In a bit of a rough area, saw two guys at […] the "motel" next door get into a yelling match at 8am. Wouldn't recommend going out at night either, watched some shady characters from the front window. Overall I would recommend it to someone catching a few ZzZ for the night. Don't go in with high expectations, although everything "worked" which is more than I can say for the next hotel we stayed in, in Vegas. Only 7km from the airport. もっと読むExpedia ゲストの適正な口コミ

Came in for Independance Day festivities, and so impressed with Bellingham! Friendly and clean city... All topped by a good stay!

While the staff were pleasant and friendly, that is the only plus about this hotel. I was very disappointed. It was not clean - I had to disinfect the toilet seat as clearly it was dirty. The shower curtain rod was ready to fall off and also prevented the bathroom door from closing. The tub was all chipped up. There was dirt on the walls and the carpeting […] was worth and dirty. There were missing light bulbs throughout. I would not recommend until they have a complete facelift. Furniture is also old and falling apart. もっと読むHotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ

BuzzFeed.com, tracking the woes of the middle class
Lighthearted distractions
Having a bad day? Consider a list on BuzzFeed.com to gain a little perspective — or at least a laugh.
BuzzFeed put together "27 Middle-Class Problems," with complaints culled from Twitter — where many people go to gripe.
The list shows the actual tweets, accompanied by stock photos of sad-looking people.
Fair warning: The compilation might make readers feel a little guilty about the inanity of the problems about which they grumble (even though it isn't likely to make anyone stop).
Some of the middle-class complaints:
• "Had to turn down the brightness on the iPad because it hurts my eyes."
• "I think I've put too much water in with my quinoa."
• "This morning's 'latte' was actually about 45% foam :("
• "I can't remember my cleaner's name."
Another popular list on BuzzFeed offers "19 Signs You've Been Vegan Too Long."Among the signs:
• "You don't realize that most people call . . . Tofu Package Openers 'steak knives.' "
• "You carry a business card to explain to people where you get your protein."
To look at the rest of either list, go to BuzzFeed.com and click on the arrow in the upper right corner.

I'm just very interested to see, if you ever actually feel as if you've done great work when you have... I can get complimented but I know it's not amazing or all that good. Will I ever get to a stage when someone says it's good and agree... Or are we artists always destined to a fate of always striving for absolute perfection? (not in any way saying I'm anywhere near perfect)
Does this make sense? I mean I do my best work, and I don't think it's very good -As I know my next will be better and this will happen forever. (THIS ISN'T A THREAD FOR MOTIVATION OR ANYTHING, I'M NOT COMPLAINING THAT I THINK I'M BAD)

Reverse french braid on the front section of hair with a section of back combing, finished of with a fish plait and floral decoration.
Nov 14, 2012
How do you do this?
Hi Sadie, the front is sectioned off and then you do a reverse french plait adding the pieces from the crown side only, the next section is a back combed bouffant and then the look is finished off with a fishtail plait. I think there are youtube videos for each of these sections if you need help :)

Letter: Legislature Disingenuous About Cuts (What Are Their True Priorities?)by Howard Franques Jr. - Advocate (excerpt)
The majority of the state lawmakers continue to insist that their hands are tied by the state constitution, and therefore they can do nothing to save the state universities from massive budget cuts. In contrast to the lawmakers assertions, pundits in the print and electronic media have pointed out for months that during the current session the Legislature could, with two simple majority votes, amend existing law to allow an additional 5 percent cut in the statutorily dedicated funds. In addition, an experienced lawyer who doubles as a political blogger has suggested novel, legal ways that the rainy-day fund and the megafund could be used to help the universities.Having ignored reasonable, legal solutions to the problem, and after finding $150 million for a chicken plant and a pro football team, legislators, with the acquiescence of Gov. Bobby Jindal, continue to claim that $150 million cant be found to save the universities from budget reductions that will reverse the great leaps forward made during the Foster and Blanco administrations.There is something wrong with a state that prioritizes a poultry plant and a pro sports franchise owned by a Texas billionaire over quality universities. To paraphrase Shakespeare, the fault in Louisiana is not in our stars but in our state legislators.

Here are a few more pictures of Colin Farrell and Noomi Rapace on the set of Dead Man Down in New York City from June 29th. Both Farrell and Rapace of other exciting projects about to hit the big screen. Farrell was featured with his beautiful Total Recall co-stars, Jessica Biel and Kate Beckinsale on the cover of Maxim Magazine. From Becomegorgeous.com:
"The action movie is packed with interesting, sci-fi gadgets and apparently the cast fell in love with some of them. When asked about the gadgets they'd love to own in reality, the cast has three different answers that go from Jessica's desire for a hovercraft to Kate's implant phones and Colin's funny wish: 'a three-breasted hooker in a hovercraft!'."
PICTURES: Check out more on the Colin Farrell page
I agree with Jessica, I want a hovercraft too. But Kate also picked a good one since it would be so much more convenient if my phone is implanted instead of in my pocket. Who am I kidding? The one I'd really want and would be willing to pay the most for would be Colin Farrell's funny wish. But, don't tell anyone. Total Recall hits theaters on August 3rd.

Clint was very excited to be a part of Shakey's Place. This will be his firat and last year in the ThinkQuest project, as a team member at least. Clint is active in Theatre and Computer science having developed several webpages, including The Tiger Act Website and A student project based on Chernobyl. He will be attending Rockhurat College this year with a Computer Science major and a Theatre minor, (everyone thinks this is a strange combination, but it suits him just fine!) He would like to thank the ThinkQuest sponsors and staff who really amde this possible, Mr. John Biggerstaff for the information and server space here in Lee's Summit, and Clint's Coach Mr. Ben Martin; his mentor, theatre coach, and all-around friend.
He would like to thank Christina and her parents for their long hours, his parents for the phone line and endless support. I LOVE YOU MOM AND DAD!! :)
Break out the champagne, guys! We're DONE!!
Christina L. Obligar is a different kind of individual. She does not
quite belong to any school clique (is she a band geek, drama freak,
school girl, or giggly airhead??), and she can't say that her group of
friends belong to one group either. After being involved in almost every opportunity availible to her (drama
club, band, school musicals, youth orchestra, tap dancing, ballet,
gymnastics, karate, trumpet lessons, cello lessons, piano lessons,
drawing lessons, painting lessons, cartooning lessons, dog training
classes, and even 4-H) Christina has finally turned to the internet to
look for more opportunities. As a result, Christina has found herself
working with her team leader, (or better described as her Slave Master)
Clint Hall (just kidding, Clint), and team member, Sarah Steele.
Christina has worked hard to complete her tasks, and at the same time
remain healthy in both body AND mind. She hopes that her team wins a
scholarship bigger than Clint's phone bill. Big thanks to coach, Cheryl Harrigan, and extremely supportive parents, Bienvenido and Lily Obligar.

Christina, please refer to her often under construction webpage.

Whether this girl is classifiable or not, there is one thing that is
certain; she knows that she wants to make lots of money. How will she
make this money? No one knows! But Christina is trying her hand at...
well everything!
My name is Sarah Steele and
I'm from Adelaide, South Australia. I attend Wilderness School which
is a girls School with 500 students just out of the Central Business
District. I have attended Wilderness for 3
years and before that I went to Seaton Park Primary. I was born in
October, 1983. I play Ice Hockey in my recreation time and I love to
read. I chose to do this topic as I have always been fascinated by
the way that people interpret stories and Shakespeare is one of the
most complicated to interpret. My coach is my Information Technology
teacher, Mrs Sue Green. My school has students from 5 years old till
around 18 years old and we have a wide variety of subjects. I have
access to both Apple Macs and IBM's as well as scanners, digital
cameras and the internet.

03 September 2009 22:20 [Source: ICIS news]
HOUSTON (ICIS news)--US chemical export cargoes were absent in the market, shippers said on Thursday.
"It's been really slow this week," one trader said. "Chemical exports are basically closed until after the [Labor Day] holiday," the source added.
But the shipping owners, brokers and traders are expecting a wave of cargoes to enter the market in the second half of September, traders said.
"We're hoping we've seen the summer low spot, and, second-half September, we'll see more cargoes available," a broker/trader said.
Traders and brokers said the rates are unchanged due to thin US exports, adding that freight rates on several lanes are softening.
"US to Far East is loose on space," one source said. "But the US rates are stable because not much is shipping out," a source added.
Freight rates for 2,000 tonnes easy chemicals (not difficult to ship) going from the US Gulf to Asia Pacific were assessed in an $85-95/tonne (€60-67/tonne) spread, according to global chemical market intelligence service ICIS pricing.
($1 = €0.70)

Michael Merlo has not received any gifts yet
Hi Michael, I found your comment on the Magee Group - In New Castle, PA. My Magee Line is there also, I not not recall if we have communicated before. But I would love to talk with you. My Magee Ancestor is James Clark Magee - His death certificate states his father was J C Magee (perhaps Sr.,) and mother was Lydia Rigby. His father was an Irish Immigrant and Mother was born in New Caslte - I have not been able to confirm this, I can not find them anywhere. James Clark Magee had two siblings that I know of for certain...Seth Magee and John Magee. I would love to be able to find his parents so I can bring this line back to Ireland. Can you help? Look forward to hearing from you.

My sister and I both purchased the Grandmother bracelet in honor of our Grandmother aka Mommy. On 9/25 she went Home to be with our Lord and Savior and her birthday was on 10/18 so we wanted to honor and remember and pay tribute to God's precious gift to us. You don't have to be a Grandmother to wear this bracelet - we wear it to remember Mommy. |

I purchased 2 of the bracelets. One in silvertone and one in goldtone. I love them both and wear them together. Good quality, good price. I definitely plan to add at least 2 more. I highly recommend these bracelets. |

After driving on it in both his NASCAR Sprint Cup Chevy and McLaren's F1 car, Tony Stewart said he would like to see NASCAR incorporate the 0.95-mile boot section into its August Cup race at Watkins Glen International's road course.
"I enjoyed the long course," Stewart said. "I'd never been around it till today. I told (NASCAR executive and pace car driver) Brett Bodine when we got out of the car after our setup runs that I would like the opportunity to see us having a shot at running the long course.
"I think it would create more passing opportunities, for sure," Stewart added. "It's just such a historic racetrack, and there are some really cool corners down there that we don't get a shot to run on a Cup weekend."
WGI president Michael Printup told the Sporting News that he plans to lobby NASCAR president Mike Helton, vp competition Robin Pemberton and senior vice president of racing operations Steve O'Donnell about running the full course.
"By tomorrow morning, I'll have a message in to Mr. Helton and Mr. Pemberton and Mr. O'Donnell," Printup said. "I've asked them over and over again, and I think this was just the real live testimonial that it can happen.
"Our races are becoming shorter now (in duration), because we've paved all the gravel traps, and we've taken out a lot of the mishaps and (loss) of track time. Now we just have to pave (Turn) 8, which is down in the heel of the boot, and I think we could have some great racing."

BERLIN – Greek Prime Minister, Antonis Samaras, wants international lenders to give his country more time to adhere to reform demands. According to him, the extension will aid Greece's economy get back in shape. He will meet with the head of the Eurogroup, Jean-Claude Juncker, French President François Hollande and German Chancellor Angela Merkel later in the week.
Samaras is leading a country that is going through its fifth year of recession. During this time of increasing political and social discontent, the Greek president seeks to soften the impact of budget cuts on society by extending the time required to pass the reforms.
"Let me be very explicit: we are not asking for additional money. We adhere to our commitments and meet all requirements. We must implement growth because it reduces the financial gaps." Samaras said in Wednesday's edition of the Bild newspaper.
"All we want is a little air to allow the economy to function and increase state revenues. More time does not automatically mean more money," he added.
Samaras is expected to press for Greece to receive up to two years to reduce its deficit to below 3% of the GDP, but did not say how much extension he wanted. The deficit was 9.3% of GDP in 2011.
Samaras abounded that Greece, which received two bailouts, is making progress with the tough reforms that its lenders have demanded, but acknowledged that many things went wrong in the past.
"Soon we will have a smaller public service but healthy and significantly more efficient," he said.
"We are making progress, we are reducing the overall number of public employees and I have decided to hire only one person for every 10 retired civil servants," he said.
Most of the cuts would come from reductions in spending on pensions, social benefits, wages in the public sector and health system costs, including laying off up to 40,000 employees.
Samaras is against Greece leaving the European Union because according to him, it would be a nightmare for the country and will reduce the standard of living by another 70%. Germany and other countries on the other hand, see otherwise.
"It would mean at least five years of recession and unemployment would increase by over 40%. A nightmare for Greece: economic collapse, social unrest and unseen crisis of democracy," Samaras said.

The Blue Whale in Los Angeles on A Blog Supreme
April 15, 2012. Posted by Becca Pulliam.
Add new comment | Filed under: Blue Whale, Jazz Alive, Live Music, toast of the nationThis past New Year's Eve, Toast of the Nation broadcast live over more than 200 NPR stations from The Blue Whale in downtown LA. We featured the Billy Childs Quartet and Dee Dee Bridgewater MC'd from the stage. The club was a dream venue with Joon Lee and Rocco Somazzi presenting the music. Come 2012, it was hard to say goodbye. The Blue Whale had great music lined up for January, BTW, just in case we decided to stay an extra month.
Here's more about The Blue Whale and Joon, as written by Alex Rodriguez.
Happy New Year! .. from Toast of the Nation

Toast of the Nation Live at WBGO
December 31, 2011. Posted by Tim Wilkins.
Add new comment | Filed under: Jazz Alive, toast of the nationWBGO rang in 2012 as we do every year with Toast of the Nation, our eight-hour extravaganza which celebrates the best in live jazz from coast to coast. Broadcast by more than 200 NPR stations across the nation and by NPR Berlin and Armed Forces Radio overseas, you only heard it streaming live right here.
Miss something, or want to hear it again? Our friends over at NPR Music have archived all of the sets for your listening enjoyment:
Toast of the Nation 2012 Archive
Happy New Year from all your friends at WBGO!
Thanks to listeners who joined in our live chat throughout the evening, which you can still read below, and to our East Coast and West Coast blog teams, and partners in Boston, New York, Washington, Denver, Detroit, and Los Angeles.
Julian Lage Trio Live from Berklee in Boston
Guitarist Julian Lage has been performing in public since he was six. Trained in both classical music and jazz, his childhood talents were the subject of an Academy Award-nominated documentary, Jules at Eight. Lage graduated from the Berklee College of Music in 2008, and returns to Boston tonight to perform at his alma mater with drummer Eric Harland and bassist Larry Grenadier.
Berklee actively supports its young graduates, and has partnered with WBGO and NPR to create a series of live broadcasts which showcase their talents. The concerts grew out of WBGO's weekly showcase of emerging jazz talent, The Checkout.
"Since we debuted The Checkout on WBGO in 2009, we've produced shows featuring dozens of Berklee alumni; in a city of great musicians, you simply can't help it," says Josh Jackson, the show's host and producer.
Our inaugural broadcast from Berklee's Café 939 in November featured trumpeter Christian Scott, followed by saxophonist Seamus Blake in December. We will host three more live broadcasts from Berklee this spring.
Highlights from Newport Jazz 2011
In August, WBGO joined forces with NPR Music and WGBH to broadcast both days of the Newport Jazz Festival. We captured more than twenty sets of music, and have chosen some highlights for you, which include Regina Carter, Miguel Zenón and Trombone Shorty.
Shorty, also known as Troy Andrews, grew up in New Orleans' Tremé neighborhood, and leads Orleans Avenue, an ensemble of funky futurists who like himself are deeply rooted in the Crescent City's musical traditions. Shorty plays trumpet as well as trombone, sings, and ignites a crowd like few others.
Kennedy Center Tribute to Dr. Billy Taylor
Dr. Billy Taylor lives on in our hearts and minds at WBGO. As the originator of jazz broadcasting at NPR, he was our tireless advocate and mentored many of us over the years. The pianist, educator and broadcaster played a unique role in the life of the station from our first broadcast in 1979 until his death late last year.
"His knowledge and gentle presentation set the tone in how jazz performance was presented," said Thurston Briscoe, WBGO's vice president of programming. "He was one of the most supportive people I ever met."
In November, pianist Geri Allen gathered some of Dr. T's many musical friends at the Eisenhower Theater of the Kennedy Center in Washington to play in his memory. These include Toshiko Akiyoshi, Cyrus Chestnut, Danilo Perez and Christian Sands, - just a handful of the hundreds of oustanding jazz musicians Taylor mentored over the years.
Wynton Marsalis Plays Jelly Roll Morton and King Oliver
Simon Rentner, the producer of WBGO's live broadcast from Jazz at Lincoln Center this evening, contributed this appreciation of Wynton Marsalis's choice of music, which will swing us in to the New Year on the East Coast:
"To become more serious than I already am," is what Wynton Marsalis says his goal is for 2012. "To become more of a man."
To demonstrate his serious and enduring love of jazz, Marsalis will celebrate two very serious – yet often overlooked - jazz pioneers this evening: Joe "King" Oliver and Jelly Roll Morton, in our live broacast from the intimate setting of Jazz at Lincoln Center's Dizzy's Club.
Most Christmases, Marsalis and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra perform their annual festive show, Red Hot Holiday Stomp, which gives a New Orleans twist to holiday classics. But this year, there's no egg nog or holly, just spitfire arrangements of early jazz which convey the power and energy of this music, which admirers of King Oliver's band at the Lincoln Gardens in Chicago used to call "hotter than a forty-five!"
Tonight, the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra will be "hotter than a forty-five," as you can hear for yourself right here.
Sing the Truth! in Detroit with Reeves, Wright and Kidjo
Three women, three unique voices, and musical choices with superb musicians - that's what inspired WBGO and fifteen other NPR affiliates to broadcast Sing the Truth! live from the Detroit Jazz Festival this Labor Day.
The show is a tribute by three of today's most powerful women in song - Angelique Kidjo, Dianne Reeves, and Lizz Wright, to three of their heroes, Miriam Makeba, Odetta, and Abbey Lincoln,, all of whom recently passed away.
The three singers are joined by Geri Allen, Romero Lubambo, James Genus, Munyungo Jackson, and musical director Terri Lyne Carrington. Sean's band is Brian Hogans, Orrin Evans, Luques Curtis, and Obed Calvaire.
WBGO's Rhonda Hamilton, who is hosting Toast this evening, also presented that broadcast, and contributed this appreciation of Sing The Truth!:
"Fireworks lit the sky and on the stage, the voices of Dianne Reeves, Angelique Kidjo and Lizz Wright rang out into the night and captivated the opening night crowd at the Detroit Jazz Festival.
With near record breaking heat and high humidity in the Motor City over the last few days, the word perspiration doesn't fit the bill. We have all been sweating but within the first few seconds of Sing The Truth!, I literally felt chills. These three incredibly gifted artists, each with her own distinctive style, put on a show that energized the audience and made us glad to be alive.
Dianne Reeves sings with the clarity, confidence and passion of an artist who has earned diva status. In complete command of her instrument, she knows how to weave a spell, create drama and take the music higher.
"Angelique Kidjo carries the spirit of Mother Africa within her soul. Her voice, her dance, her exuberance have the power to make you scream.
"Lizz Wright embodies youth and beauty and grace. Despite her young years she has the heart of a woman and the wisdom to match. With a voice like warm honey she digs deep and brings up a well of emotion with each performance."

Grogall, the source of so many of the images that have been added to this and other LEGO sites this week, has once again come up trumps, this time with hi-res pictures of the series 6 and 7 minifigs. I've scaled them down to fit on the page here at Brickset (8827, series 6 and 8831, series 7), but you can see the full resolution versions in his Brickshelf gallery. Thanks Grogall!
