It's September 11, 2011.
Today Matthew and I make a bet that we will pay an astonishing sum of money to each other, if we eat sugar anytime in the next year. (He has been texting me, "OMG! There's sugar in my SOUP! It's in Corn Nuts!" On and on goes the list.) Check out this video for the details.
Making a Sugar Bet keeps you accountable.
We negotiated for what natural sweeteners we'll allow:
Not allowed: white sugar, brown sugar, corn syrup, aspartame (Nutrasweet)
Allowed: real maple syrup, molasses, organic/raw agave, raw coconut sugar, dates, fruit, stevia, raw honey
JOIN US, and find yourself a partner! Make a sugar bet. State your intention here! What is your length of time, and what do you lose if you eat sugar? Matthew wanted to have shooting each other in the butt with his BB gun, or eating silkworm larvae, or zapping each other wearing a shock collar, part of the deal. He's kinda odd like that; his colleagues and he do this all the time to accomplish their goals. But even if you're not motivated by fear of physical pain like he is (I said NO), say yes to an amount of money that blows your mind, whether that's $50 or $500 or $50,000. That will keep you motivated.
Because sugar is the Nice Girl's Crack Cocaine.
I am giving it up because it's my only vice. I don't eat fast food, soda, fried foods, or chemicals. Not that I eat it very often, but I do have a thing for chocolate. I go "off sugar" completely, often–for weeks or even a few months. And what sugar I DO eat is an unrefined kind from the health food store, usually, eaten only after a mostly-raw meal—but it's still a concentrated sweetener I'd be better off without.
I want this challenge, to see what happens if I literally NEVER eat it for a whole year.
I'll be blogging about what happens to us, as we go through the year, here.
Tell us about your own Sugar Bet, and come BACK to give us updates! You can remember where to find it because it's on this blog on the historic date of 9/11/11! (Plus this blog is searchable.)
Tell ALL your friends about your Sugar Bet so you're not tempted in social settings. Tell everyone you know, to keep you honest.
I'm excited to hear what your specific, detailed health benefits are, as you kick the habit. Read the seminal book The Sugar Blues by William Dufty, for some education and motivation as you start your journey away from addiction!

Hi Robyn,
Big fan here. What about stevia? That's the sweetener I have been using in my smoothy.
Also, what about 70% or higher chocolate? Would that be a no no?
Thanks and keep it up. Love what you do for us.
p.s. LOVE this quote:
Because sugar is the Nice Girl's Crack Cocaine.
Can I use this for my blog quoting you?
WOW! What a challenge!!! I don't think I could bet for that much because it's ridiculous to think I'd be able to FIND that much money… but I think it's a wonderful idea to make it deem ridiculous to "buy" a brownie for that much money. Really put it into perspective – your body doesn't need this sugar – it's costly to your health. LOVE it! And Matthew is so adorable! ; ) I'll have to find a friend to Sugar Bet!
I haven't eaten any sugar in 3 years now except that which is in natural whole foods like fruits.
I stopped eating sugar when I read about the dangers it poses to our bodies in The Metabolic Plan by Stephen Cherniske, M.S. Sugar steals nutrients from our bodies.
Thanks for all the great work you do.

What is the point of the bet? All the things allowed are sugar. Just a different way of sweetening.

For all that want to know more of the "why" some of us eat/crave sugars please go to this book that I have just begun to study for some new research I am working on for my first book! Showing the scientific communities and real people (including herself) what brain chemicals are reacting to in sugars! Our genetic links to sugar "addiction" is amazing knowledge known since at least 1996.
"Potatoes Not Prozac" by Dr. Kathleen DesMaisons
We all need to read & re-read all of the labels in our food and be totally shocked by the contents that are included in our healthy natural organic diets!!
Good Luck to all! Hello stevia!!

How could he (your friend) even consume that "nasty" diet soda? Oh my, has he never read the label on that drink? Check out the Ancestoral Nutrition information so you can "discover" where some of your propensities for foods you consume! Good Luck!!
In Health & Healing,
Hi Robyn,
Hmmm….am thinking about this bet. Tell me, why not raw honey?
Oops, forget it. I saw the comment. Thanks!

Robyn, I have been sugar free for over three years now and I love it. I may get some when I eat at girls camp and at my mother in laws but that is only when I am not cooking and can not control what is prepared for dinner. I try to not eat things that I know have sugar at those places but there are times that I have no control over it. I have been so much healthier with the no sugar and I know that I will be stronger as I go on. I now need to work harder at the raw diet that I know will heal me.

How about demerara sugar? My sources say it's unprocessed. (It's also the only sweetener in Lindt 85% cocoa extra dark chocolate bar.)
AnonymousView September 11, 2011
Wait, I don't get it…you never eat sugar anyway? Why is this a bet?
Robynreplied:View September 11, 2011
Stef, not true. Sugar isn't something I eat much of, but I did occasionally eat it (usually in the form of chocolate, not candy or drinks or anything, and I never ate corn syrup)–no more though!
I'm Sorry Robyn,
I think that agave Syrup is the same as sugar. All the molasses maple syrup etc is really the same to me. I have been off ALL sugar for almost 2 years now. The only think I eat on the list you have is dates and fruit.
IUt changed my entire personality.
I have your smoothie book and I think your great.
You and your web site have been very helpful to me. I lost over 100 lbs, changed my way of looking at the world, and believe I can keep it off for the rest of my life.

Nevermind…. You already answered my question about the raw honey. I went off refined sugar for 7 months. I felt amazing! I went to Jamacia for my 10 year anniversary and gave in to some treats…Big Mistake! I thought I would have more restraint since it had been so long but as soon as I had sugar I started craving it. I am going to take this challange on. I never felt better in my life when I was off sugar.
Hi Robyn: Best wishes on your no sugar for a year. I can see that this would be an easier transition for you than most. I look forward to hearing about your sugar free year. I'm happy with sugar and don't want to be free of it. However, you never know I just might want to or need to at some point in my life. Enjoy! Kristine

I went off soda/sugar July 31!!! Glad you are both joining me
I am excited to watch what happens when more start to join us.
I did a "quit all sweets" challenge on my blog for three months with ten other participants over a year ago. But I went right back to sweets. I'm guessing it's because I wasn't off of all refined sugar if it existed in some of my food too? So the craving didn't go away. At the time I ate a lot of processed food because I lived up North in a fly in only community (long story) so oh man……sheesh I'm writing this in hopes that I could maybe do it but I'm worried I can't. Oh man…I really want to. I mean when I was five my eye doctor told my Mom I needed off of sugar. This isn't new news LOL!!!

That's an easy bet for someone like you. There are so many naturally great things that can satisfy your sweet tooth you will breeze through this bet.

This is wonderful! $10K is a little steeper bet than our 1 month sugar bet and if we caved having to clean the other person's house. I'll have to find someone to make a deal with! Thanks for the inspiration.

I love it! I loved reading sugar blues, and have also found Kathleen DesMasions books really enlightening. She wrote The Sugar Addicts total Recovery Program, to name one of her several, but is one of the nations leading experts on addiction and nutrition, writting her dissertation on her findings of how diet is effected by nutrition. She has really interesting, scientific finding on how sweetness effect our brain chemistry. People become really concerned with aspartame vs sugar on your blood sugar, but they both stimulate the brain the same. Anyway, we are all going off sugar, my son, who is 5, has been having absence seizures, so our motivation was to see if it would help, and the first week of no sugar, he went from seizures several times a day, to none. After that first week, we've been not as consistent, and there have been more seizures, but it certainly was startling to see the contrast. We are wanting to avoid medicine, and so if we give up sugar to do so, it seems like a win-win to us. It's great to see others doing the same, thanks GSG, we appreciate you!

We bet our kids $150 to go off sugar for a year, and our 10 year old has gone since January, and is still going strong! He has refined sugar in NOTHING he eats. He was diagnosed as ADD before, but we felt it was linked to sugar. He's doing great in school, and doesn't even need to be reminded to do his homework when he comes home! It use to take all night for him to focus long enough to write 12 words 3 times each. We have LOVED the SUGAR DEAL at out house!!! Good luck to both of you.

I have been trying to do no sugar since 08/16/11 but at times I do give in. This will be a great challenge for me. I am allowing myself real maple syrup, molasses, organic/raw agave, raw coconut sugar, dates, fruit, and stevia. I do not have a partner in crime yet but I am starting today and will think of a motivation. I have not been able to figure one out yet. If anyone has any ideas that aren't financial I'd consider them. (I don't think the pain would motivate me). Thanks for giving this challenge!
AnonymousView September 12, 2011
Sorry gsg, this is no biggie for me.. I haven't eaten refined sugar in probably Fourty five (yes, 45) YEARS or more – - maybe even 50 years now. I eat fresh fruit only . .. and raisins – - not even Stevia or those types of things. Yccchhhhh! Don't understand why people like them. I don't even eat the raw deserts.. too sweet; they're gross, and its junk food for raw foodists..
Giving that up for a year is easy – - easy – - easy!
AnonymousView September 12, 2011
I am betting my family to the challenge. No sugar for a year. The winner gets $1000 dollars. I think it is great. The kids are so inspired and I really think it will help them in athletics and school. I am so excited thanks for the inspiration. It will also help all of us in the challenge to read food labels and find the sugar that is lurking everywhere.

Hi Robyn,
Inspiring bet, good luck! I'm going to find a partner to do this with (I know just the person, she'll probably read this!)… my husband would never go for it but I can refrain eating his surgary stuff, no problema!
I'm in CA and cannot find raw almonds that haven't been pasturized… and I want to sprout! Can you provide a resource for purchasing almonds that are sproutable (is that a word? :^)).
I'm hooked on green smoothies because of my friend who got hooked because of you. I appreciate you so!!
Robynreplied:View September 12, 2011
JoAnn, we hook you up with a direct-from-the-CA-farm unpasteurized almond buy oct. 1 through nov. 30 every year. Stay tuned here on the blog / facebook / newsletter for when we kick it off.
This is so funny and coincidental that you started your "sugar bet" today, because a few girlfriends and I also started that same thing today (w/o knowing about yours until now). We are doing it until Halloween! We also have basically the same list of things you CAN have-stevia, raw honey, agave…I have done it before and it wasn't that difficult except that there are small amounts of it in things like bread, salad dressings, etc. But it is do-able!
I have loved reading your blog and website and agree with almost everything you preach. I will be attending your seminar in Boise, can't wait to meet you!

Great bet Robyn! I too would like to find someone willing to go on a sugar bet. 10K is too much for me, but I guess you have to make it an amount that you would be sorry to have to pay out
I will be back to post my sugar bet soon!

I went off sugar 2 years ago and my eyesight improved from -2.0 to -1.0 as a result. I'm 58 years old and eyesight doesn't improve at my age. Or so they say!! My eye doctor definately attributed my improved eyesight to diet.
AnonymousView September 12, 2011
Robyn — this is great and so timely for me. I think this challenge is such an important one and will be happy to take part in it as well. I'm challenging myself to be processed sugar free until 2012 — through the holidays and everything. Your web site, blog, and videos are so inspirational for me. Thank you so much — can't wait to take this journey and watch us succeed!

My Husband and I are committing to no sugar for a year–he has already pretty much stuck to this since the beginning of the year and I cook like this but it is the going out with others that makes it a large commitment for me–We Will Do It!!
AnonymousView September 13, 2011
My husband and I made this commitment in February of this year. With both of us having digestive track issues, we have gone grain free (thus gluten free), lactose free, and processed sugar free. The only sweeteners we agreed to allow are fruits, dates and honey. Basically only monosaccharides. That has meant… you guessed it…. almonst everything that comes in a package. Our newest evaluation of what we put in our mouth is 'if it came in a package we probably should not be eating it!'
Now that we are over 6 months into our commitment, we have never felt better! We will likely make this a permanent nutritional lifestyle. I am already vegan and 90% raw so there really is little change for me, but my husband is really liking the change he is experiencing. We have challenged many of our friends and they just think we are nuts…. They may change their minds in the future. We are not giving up on them… we are cooking for them instead!
AnonymousView September 13, 2011
I've been doing this since January… my husband has been for years! It's amazing how much more intense and delicious everything tastes after you've given up sugar and other refined sweeteners. Good luck! You can DEFINITELY do it. I'm never going back!
AnonymousView September 13, 2011
I wanted to be held accountable, so I made my own facebook group called Amy's Sugar Bet. I'm excited. I even linked this blog to it, so friends can see what exactly you are doing. I am going to start with just 3 months and hopefully go much longer!
Thanks for all your wonderful insight!

My friend Haylee joined in! $1000 bet – and she is telling everyone!!! http://www.facebook.com/notes/haylee-haning/the-sugar-beteek/2325060854280
Dates and syrups still contain high amounts of sugar, refined or not. Come on guys! – have some real guts and quit the "real" maple syrup, molasses, agave, raw coconut sugar, and dates. I am definitely prone to sugar addiction myself. I have found that when I've given up all sugars, that all cravings go away even for my favorite fruits. Shockingly, eating sugar becomes an aversive. And, you won't even have to bet $10,000 because you won't need that amount of an incentive — your sugar cravings will just die out. So right here and now I pledge to give up refined sugar, dates, maple syrup, coconut sugar, molasses, agave and honey. I"ll minimize my banana intake to one a week and keep to the lesser sugared fruits such as the berries, kiwis and green apples. Here we go! How about you? I'm challenging you to cut the so called "natural sugars" which are highly addictive and promote the cravings for the refined sugars such as chocolate and the like. Are you in?

My husband and I have a similar bet going – only ours did not include the money, as it is all the same account! However, we've bet high stakes…. a plastic yellow LIVESTRONG bracelet! We each wear one, and if we eat sugar of any kind (or refined flour of any kind) – we have to relinquish our bracelet to the other person. Sounds simple but it works! Neither of us want to have to hand over our bracelet to the other, and our kids are cheering us on! Fun and a great reminder of why we are getting healthy and staying healthy. [Marry Matthew already, would you? The love is clearly there between you! ]
Robynreplied:View September 21, 2011
MB, that is my favorite thing I have heard today! DO NOT give that bracelet up!

K. I'm going to say what I think alot of others are thinking.
You two are way too cute for just BFF.
You are a very cute couple.
And I'm with some of the others……I think a much more "telling" bet would be to go off all sugars, except for fresh fruit. Then I think we'd really see how amazing we'd feel!
What I love about this challenge is it's only a few things to give up – white sugar, brown sugar, corn syrup, aspartame. Now, I know it comes in many forms and you have to read labels. But, the trick is not to buy anything with a label, or a label with just a few ingredients. I like that the decision is "No, because it has sugar etc.,.. or yes because it doesn't..
Then maybe we can add white flour down the line!
I do wonder why Splenda/sucralose is not on the list though..??.
If anyone wants a buddy, or wants to set up a group please private message me at the FB website I mentioned. I looked for the FB group mentioned by Amy above but couldn't find anything.

I did this in 2009. No sugar (not even fruit) for three months. Then, only unrefined natural sugars (fruit, honey, maple syrup…).
I have an intermittent bet with my co-worker. We got for 3-4 months at a time. It totally works! And the bonding is fun. :]

Hey Robyn, just curious, why do you not do salt? I am a local UT guy as well and I am a big fan of dr young and I have been living on his diet for a few years and I am downing a teaspoon or more of raw salt and sodium bicarbonate a day and it seems to be doing very well in toxin removal, energy etc. I like your bet idea and listened to the video soup to nuts but that one comment on the salt caught my attention. Why remove it when it is so full of essential minerals and elements the body uses for the removal of acids. Just curious if you heard something I have not. Keep up the good work! I am really loving the Lotus! Newfie.

Praying helps people stay in control of their emotions and behaviour, according to a new study. People turn to prayer 'as a coping response to the high demands in life' and are rewarded with increased strength and ability to resist temptation, researchers said. Previous findings have shown that when people try hard to control their emotions and thoughts, the risk of aggressive outbursts and binge drinking or eating rises...

I found Midnight Rain in the airport in Sweden, fell in love with it. The smaller bottle I originally purchased came with 2 refills, easier to travel with. It has an AMAZINGLY awesome smell but the scent doesn't last that long & the bottle seems not to last as long as other perfumes, maybe because I have to spray more often? I will keep buying it.

LabTutor for Nursing is a blended learning solution for teaching physiology in nursing and healthcare courses. Exercises have been specifically developed to connect physiology theory with real clinical practice for nursing and healthcare students.
Experience LabTutor
LabTutor's blended learning approach combines face-to-face teaching methods with online activities:
- In the classroom, LabTutor engages students with self-guiding data acquisition exercises and real patient files, including video consultations and clinical results.
- Outside the classroom, LabTutor Online gives students access to interactive pre-class and post-class activities such as quizzes and reports. There is also access to student and patient files for easy data review and an exclusive range of documentaries can be viewed on LabTutor TV.
Typical LabTutor classroom activities could include:
- Hands-on practice measuring student vital signs including BP, ECG, EEG, respiratory rate and more.
- Comparison of patient data and student recordings.
- Evaluation of both data sets in relation to the relevant physiological and clinical theory.
Nursing Collection
The Applied Nursing collection helps students understand a broad range of physiological concepts and their clinical applications. It also presents students with additional patient case studies to develop sophisticated critical thinking and analytical skills.

here is mine right now I am waiting for the CM XB, Should be here late next week. EDIT: Actually this is a few days ago, I didn't take a new pic after switching the PSU and moving stuff around. don't mind the dust,and random stuff above and below it. I have not noticed till now how much my black/yellow/CF Xbox(non-360) stands out
Tossed the V10 on with its modded TEC (96w) Using a GTX 295 with a dead core right now since the GTX 470's are all in use in my watercooling build.
The acrylic case if i get it will be used for the AMD fx cruncher that i'm planing to build early next month(or late this month) The CM XB is the one i planned to get for the main rig.
System Name: RemixedBeast Processor: Intel i5 3570K @ 3.4Ghz Motherboard: ASRock Z77 Pro3 Cooling: Coolemaster Hyper 212 Evo Memory: 16GB Corsair XMS3 Video Card: Nvidia Geforce 650Ti 1GB Hard Disk: 1.5TB Seagate/128GB Samsung 840 Optical Drive: None CRT/LCD Model: Samsung SyncMaster P2350 23in @ 1920x1080 + LG Flatron 19in Widescreen 1440x900 Case: Antec Three Hundred Two PSU: 620w Antec High Current Gamer HCG-620M Software: Windows Server 2012 x64 Standard
We could have seen that word-for-word in your system specs. The point of this thread is to post a picture of your PC in its current state.
yea its a very interesting shape and huge. I have been thinking about snagging a larger TEC for it, but the heatsink for the TEC isn't very large would be worried about smoking it. As it sits now it is only a degree or so higher than my huge water loop.
I was messing around with it last week some time and it will freeze water on a 12V 1.5A power brick in under 20 seconds. Quite good while using a MAYBE 20W power brick.
This one will freeze the base of the heatsink without a load on it, but it also has a bit more power running to it.
Yea the only time I tested this out was with a old S478 motherboard and CPU, HWmonitor only would register zero LOL
it was to let you know I got a new one... and I gotta get a card reader for it though so I can up the pics with my good camera... or find the USB cable for it in my havok physics house!
There is just a touch of reflection on the floor near said drive, looks like it may be a hard type of flooring EDIT: I just looked again, I think that is his desktop actually and that is the window next to it?!?!

Excellence, Collaboration, Integrity, Respect.
Verification is a processed used to confirm that selected income and other information provided on your FAFSA is correct. Approximately 30% of all FAFSA's are randomly selected by the federal processor for verification. The verification process ensures that eligible students receive all the financial aid to which they are entitled and prevents ineligible students from receiving financial aid to which they are not entitled.
How will I know if I am selected for verification?
You may be selected for verification either by the federal processor or by our office. If you are selected for verification by the federal processor, there will be an asterisk (*) next to your Expected Family Contribution (EFC) on your Student Aid Report. If you are selected for verification by our office, we will contact you informing you of this selection and instructing you of any additional steps that are required.
Why was I selected for verification?
Most FAFSA's that are selected for verification are chosen randomly. However, if you make changes to your FAFSA information, you may be selected for verification even if you were not selected on your initial application. In addition, we are required to complete verification for any student who applies for Special Conditions.
If I am selected for verification, am I required to send additional documentation?
No, you are not required to send additional documentation, but if you would like to receive any state or federal funds, participation in the verification process is required. You must provide the required documentation as soon as possible, but no later than three weeks prior to the end of the semester or before you withdraw from classes.
I have been selected for verification. What do I need to do?
When a student is selected for verification, the Deptartment of Education specifies for each individual what must be verified. We will notify the student of the items required to complete the file. You may verify your tax information by either making a correction on your FAFSA or by useing the IRS Data Retrieval for both student and parent if dependent. Or submit an IRS Tax Return Transcript by contacting the IRS at www.irs.gov.
Helpful Hints for using the IRS Data Retreival Tool:
Deadline to Complete Verification
Please be sure to respond to requests for documentation in a timely manner to avoid delays in processing and applying your financial aid to your student account. You must provide the required documentation as soon as possible, but no later than three weeks prior to the end of the semester or before you withdraw from classes.
The majority of financial aid funds are awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis and until the missing items are submitted to our office, processing of your financial aid is not possible. If documents are not returned in a timely manner, we cannot guarantee you will receive financial aid.
Please contact our office if you have questions about filling out your verification forms.
Once we have received your required documents, we will verify the information reported as stated under the financial aid program rules-CFR, Title 34, Part 668.

It isn't a political agenda, or part of a plot by the illuminati to control the world totally, or even a victory for one religion. It is the natural outcome of the return of Jesus. Because once he is here, physically and spiritually, not hidden, but clearly as who he is no arguments or ideas or opinions or theories or beliefs will mean anything.
Funny story, Op! Oh wait. You were serious weren't you?
Aren't the NWO going to use their own fake Jesus to do this? That is what revelation says. I thought Jesus always preached the Kingdom of God and told his followers to reject the things of the world, so why would he want religion on Earth when he was always telling people to seek the "Kingdom of God"? You should read your Gospels, that is what he preached from boats in lakes to the masses and everywhere he went. Have a read and a think.
Another religitard. Another one star.

One of the stock narratives of the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has been that the Latter-day Saints went through a period of persecution before working towards and entering the mainstream of the United States.
It's a story that's long troubled me.
While it is true that Latter-day Saints wish to be appreciated for the best of who we are — to be seen as a light unto the nations and to be respected in a diverse world — it's problematic to say Latter-day Saints, or Mormons, wish to be part of some cultural mainstream.
If Latter-day Saints join the "mainstream," how can they be "set apart" or "a city on a hill?" In short, it's really not fully possible to be part of the mainstream and be a peculiar people at the same time.
But this fundamental irony is not what really troubles me about this stock narrative. There is much in all culture — including American mainstream culture — that I love and embrace, just as my Latter-day Saint ancestors always have.
Furthermore, the concept of mainstream can be a fuzzy one, especially in a place like the United States.
Nevertheless, here's what troubles me: Because I've rarely heard Latter-day Saints tell their own story this way, as a "journey to join the mainstream," this narrative tells me much about those non Latter-day Saints who more frequently use it.
Now, stick with me for a minute, and let me try to explain my argument:
To the extent that I adopt and accept the mainstream values of my surrounding culture, my choices affirm the superiority of that so-called "mainstream" culture.
Therefore, when a writer implies that my choices have put me on a journey to some mainstream, the writer implies that what I want is what that dominant culture wants — not what my culture wants.
Take this a step further. To the extent that Latter-day Saints — and other minorities — suffer at the hands of some dominant mainstream culture through persecution and then nevertheless try to become part of that same mainstream, what of the suffering?
It is the suffering of the minority that redeems the dominant cultures' mistakes because that same minority accepts the culture's overlaying values. Is it too much to say the entire story of a "journey to the mainstream" is an exercise in scapegoating? Is the whole story an exercise in avoidance?
I apologize for being a little obscure, but J. Spencer Fluhman's recent op-ed in The New York Times about anti-Mormonism made me think about how we Latter-day Saints have been scapegoated and to some extent still are. Being anti-Mormon has been a way for others to avoid looking at the weaknesses in their own cultures — at least if I read those parts of Fluhman correctly. Fascinating.
Then I thought about it a little bit more. To what extent do I scapegoat those different from me?
For example, I have a group of students looking at the news coverage of the Native Americans who live on the Ft. Hall reservation near Blackfoot, Idaho. They want to know how they have been portrayed over the years by the local news media.
It is a powerful topic because those of us living in the Snake River Plain must pass through the Ft. Hall reservation to get between Pocatello and Idaho Falls, the two biggest cities in this region, yet local journalists write little about the reservation.
What do we Idahoans know about the values and dreams of the Shoshone-Bannack people? What do we think about them? How do we perceive their culture?
Indeed, when most readers of this paper think of Native Americans, do they think of poverty? Does it register that the name Squaw Peak might offend?

Sedu Pro Ionic Ceramic Tourmaline Flat Iron (1 1/2")
HeidiCharlotte, NCGreat For Long HairWow....I wish I found this sooner...for years I had been using a cheap Hot Tools iron and I thought that was the best my long, curly hair would look straight. I checked out some opinions on a couple of websites and decided to try the Sedu. My hair has never looked better...so smooth, so straight and it lasts for a long time. You can also flip or slightly curl the ends for a more natural look that is more popular today...The price is worth it...it will cost an extra buck to look good sometimes....and you dont want to fry your hair with cheap stuff.posted Dec 14, 2004Link to this post
KristyDetroit, MichiganI Love ItThis flat iron is the best one I ever owned. I have bought many flat irons and the Sedu is definetly the best. I was a little skeptical at first just because I didnt want to spend all that money on something that wouldnt be much different then what I have already owned. It worked great on my super thick hair and I didnt even have it on the highest heat seating. It also runs so smoothly over my hair. I love using it!!!!posted Dec 14, 2004Link to this post
Wendy BaumNew YorkGreat ProductI love my Sedu flattening iron. Its a great value for how good the product works. I wouldnt go with anyone else.posted Dec 14, 2004Link to this post
CarolCary, N.C.Sedu Vs ChiI have a Chi and ordered this Sedu for my daughter for Christmas. Of course I tried it to see how it compares--it is fantastic!! Enough heat to really set it straight and very lightweight. My hair was straighter than I can get it with the Chi.posted Dec 13, 2004Link to this post
RoseSan Antonio, TexasBest Flat IronI have A LOT of very curly and frizzy hair past my shoulders. I live in San Antonio and it is humid year around. I never thought I could have the smooth and shiny salon look on a daily basis. THIS IS THE BEST FLAT IRON! It worked beautifully and quickly. I have been searching for a long time for the perfect flat iron and this is it. I wash/condition my hair at night, let it air dry (to its usual curly & frizzy state) and use my Sedu in the morning. It looks great all day WITH NO BLOW DRYING! You will love this iron!posted Dec 13, 2004Link to this post
ShannonSturbridge, MAWorth It!!!This flat iron is worth every penny. I was a little skeptical about spending over $100 on a flat iron but it fantastic. My hair is very curly and thick and this iron makes it perfectly straight. It is also very smooth and silky feeling which are just added bonuses. My hair does not get caught in the iron like it did on my other flat irons so there is less breakage. I love it and may buy another one to have in case this one ever breaks!!!posted Dec 13, 2004Link to this post
ShellyeHouston, TexasBest I Have Ever UsedI love it, it doesnt burn my hair and leave a funny smell and it is super straight in half the time of my old straightener. I have naturally wavy/curly/frizzy hair that is very hard to control here in Texas. My hair is also very thick and very long (touching my waist), and it only take me 15 minutes to get it super straight. It also prevents, if not mends, my breaking hair. I highlight my hair and my old straightener (Helen of Troy) always caused split ends and breakage. It also heats up extra quickly. EXCELLENT!posted Dec 10, 2004Link to this post
MelissaBostonGreatThis flat iron is amazing! I have really tight curls and I was never able to blow dry my hair straight. With this iron it takes 10 minutes after a blow dry and it look straighter and smoother than ever. I love it!posted Dec 10, 2004Link to this post
Sandra SiegelNew YorkGreat ProductI really love my straightening iron. I have always had wavy hair and have tried to keep it fairly straight. However, when there is rainy weather and humidity, my hair gets flips and then looks poofy and frizzy. This iron has made a big difference and I have received a lot of compliments on how great my hair looks since I have started using this iron.posted Dec 10, 2004Link to this post
RenataProvoFrom A Skeptic: It Works!Since I started straightning my hair with SEDU Ive been getting compliments left and right! Even from guys! I like the fact that it really does take half the time (if not less) to straighten my hair and actually looks natural! As long as I condition my hair properly, Im sure my hair will look as healthy as ever even after straighting it many times a week. I am satisfied with my purchase.posted Dec 9, 2004Link to this post

A 5K race Saturday, June 14, will benefit two organizations that raise money for Uganda.
The 13th annual Fairways 5K "Saratoga for Uganda" event will raise money for The Giving Circle and AEOT.
The 5K race will begin at 9 a.m. at 1 Autumn Court in Wilton and travel through the Fairways Development. A half-mile Kid's Kick race will begin at 10:30 a.m. at the same location. The race is open to walkers, runners, and bikers, but bikers will not be timed.
Registration is $20 for the 5K and $10 for the Kid's Kick.
Awards will be given for 1st, 2nd and 3rd-place male and female finisher in each age group.
"The Fairways race has always been organized by people in the neighborhood," said Haley Perrone who, with Laurel Green, organized this year's event.
"We have both been on volunteer trips to Uganda through AOET, where we worked in schools and medical clinics. Our experiences have inspired us to raise money for children in Uganda."
AEOT was established in 1995 in order to support children, families, and communities affected by HIV/AIDs. It registered as a non-governmental organization in 2000, and is committed to providing aid to poverty stricken nations throughout Africa.
The Giving Circle, which was founded in 2005, is a Saratoga Springs-based nonprofit organization. It was initially founded to help victims of Hurricane Katrina and Rita, as well as underserved areas of Saratoga and has since expanded to provide aid internationally.
The money raised at Saturday's event will directly benefit an orphanage in one of Uganda's poorest villages, the Koi Koi House.
There will also be a block party following the two races, which will have food, music, a clown, a bouncy house, and other family-friendly festivities, and will go on until noon.
For more information on "Saratoga for Uganda, go to www.active.com or contact Haley Perrone at 944-4323.

Hi guys, I really need some help here, stupidly I flashed the 6870 BIOS to my Sapphire 6850 after reading a couple of people had successfully managed it and the higher clocks worked fine Anyway, the flash went bad, I bricked my 6850 Today I borrowed a 5450 and downloaded a 6850 BIOS with the same clocks as mine had, from your VGA BIOS Database 1 of the BIOS's worked and I can boot back into Windows using my 6850, but the second I try to install the driver it BSODs with atixxxx.sys error I have uninstalled and completey cleaned all traces of the old driver from windows, registry etc Still when I try to install the driver it bluescreens immediately I have tried a few different BIOS's, even one I had saved from an identical card and the same result with them all, either that or they brick the card again So far I have tried: atiflash -unlockrom 0 atiflash -f -newbios -p 0 bios.rom atiflash -f -newbios -p 0 bios.bin atiflash -f -p 0 bios.rom And other combinations of the above commands, they all flash successfully, some boot, some brick, but none let me install the drivers with a BSOD again I really don't want to admit defeat / buy a new card Is there anything I have missed that I can do to fix my card? It was working 100% before I flashed the 6870 BIOS Thanks for any help
You can't turn the 6850 into a 6870. If you did your research you would notice that you can only do that with the 6950 to the 6970 and even that doesn't always work. You most likely bricked your card, because every other person who appears to have done this hasn't been able to recover from it. Not to say that you can't, but (not to be insulting,) you made a very foolish decision by flashing your 6850. Sorry. People need to realize that the BIOS isn't like a driver, it's something that drives the entire card, including voltages. You can physically damage a motherboard or video card by flashing a BIOS not designed for that hardware. It might be a tough lesson, but I hope that you took something away from it at least.
Or maybe he didn't know what he was doing. Calling a new member a "dumbass" is uncalled for and isn't the kind of environment people are looking for when they come here to TPU. That is something you would expect from HardForums. It's was a foolish move and a hard lesson learned. That is all.
Yeah it was a bit hard but on the other hand it's easy to get fed up with all these people flashing bioses wrong. These kinds of posts are quite common unfortunately.
Hence why it was a foolish move, because anyone who had done research before hand would have known that this would mean sudden death for your video card. Some people need to learn the hard way that messing with your BIOS is a dangerous game to play. Also keep in mind that a user probably is going to be pretty upset that their video card is dead, so insulting them is only going to make them feel worse and doesn't change the lesson learned.
Detection, I read a while back that flashing a 6850 to a 6870 is bad. The VRM's run much hotter and the cards have a high chance of burning up the VRM's/
Actually, it probably is. He said: If the BIOS for that particular video card doesn't work, there is a very good bet that the 6870 BIOS damaged the GPU for one reason or another. Edit: You beat me too it. It also runs the VRMs are the wrong voltage so components can be damaged as well as the VRMs. Like I said, a hard lesson learned.
Thanks, it was a dumb move yep, only decided to try it after reading a few other people had done the same successfully So there is no way back from this then? I`m looking to get a new card but would be a shame to just bin this one @ trolls, isn't there a bridge you should be sitting under some place ?
No one has done is successfully because they're two very different cards with different voltages and hardware on the inside. It should never work for any 6850. Anyone who said that they did are lying to you. You can keep playing with it, but I think the damage has been done. +1: Edit: Pretty sure he is lying or flashed a different BIOS than the thought, because every time someone does this on TPU, it fails like yours did. In fact other people are worse off because their card doesn't even get detected after doing this. You're better off than most.
Lesson learned, I read the details on the BIOS download page, the clock speeds and voltages for the 6870 BIOS were what I was running my card at using MSI AB anyway, but naively neglected to check what the rest of the card was running at I didn't expect to convert a 6850 into a 6870, just do away with the need for software to OC it
Detection, it may be a registry file or something of the nature. Have you tried reflashing it back to the default bios?
Yep, I flashed it back to an original BIOS from my old identical 6850 and even installed Win 7 on a separate partition to double check it wasn't a driver thing and it bluescreens too
Whilst I agree, just calling someone a dumbass is immature and uncalled for, and by having a quick look at the rest of his posts he does look like a blatant troll. Detection, the 6850 bios you have flashed it to is it the original? EDIT I see someone got in there before me, seems like your card may be a brick afterall.
It's not the actual BIOS from this card, but from another 6850 I used to use in CFX before I sold it, it was the same make and model, I was wondering if there could be anything different between them that was causing the problem though The numbers on this card are PN 288-1E174-000SA SKU# 11180-00 I looked through your bios database here and couldn't find anything even close to those numbers so maybe they don't mean anything BIOS wise
Hi, If I read your post correctly, then you only want to have higher clock-speed for your HD 6850, so you flashed your card with the HD 6870 bios, right? You could have used the Sapphire Trixx or MSI Afterburner OC tool for adding voltage to achieve higher clocks yourself. Anyway, you say you saved a vga bios from an identical videocard, but not from the actual card you have flashed on, right? You never made a backup from the bios of that specific card that's now bricked? Then that's the problem, perhaps from the outside both cards look the same (same vga cooler) but may have (slightly) different design (pcb, videoram, timing etc.), hence the vga bioses you used causes bsods, but some do boot, but do not let you install the drivers before a bsod. Maybe try out the other Sapphire HD 6850 bioses 'till you can boot the videocard and install the driver for it without getting a bsod; there are 29 bioses for the mentioned card in the Techpowerup vga bios database. What you can do too is you either contact Sapphire and ask them politely that you need the specific bios for you HD 6850 and tell them what you have done to your HD 6850; hope that Sapphire would send you that specific vga bios to you, or you ask Sapphire if you can send back the bricked HD 6850, ask if Sapphire could repair the card for you at your cost (ask how expensive such repair could be; buy a new vga card if the cost is too high), since your warranty just expired because you have tinkered with the vga bios.
Yea, I flashed that one and about 20 others from the database a couple times each using different variations of the atiflash commands and there was only ever two results Bricked or Bluescreen
Yea I was using MSI AB to OC, the reason for the flash was in the hope to do away with software OCing I've tried the majority of Sapphire BIOS's from the database all with the same results, either bricked or bluescreen when I install the drivers, no variations Currently I have the saved BIOS from the other 6850 I had, and the card works without drivers but again BSOD when I install them Thanks for the tip on Sapphire, which details would I need to give them in order to get the correct BIOS sent to me? I've posted the numbers I can find on the card a couple posts up EDIT -- PN 288-1E174-000SA SKU# 11180-00
So, new posters come on TPU looking for help to fix a mistake they made and shibby boy is right there to stick the boot in! Way to go dude! I agree with the other posters, this is totally uncalled for. It's just plain bullying and yes, many of his posts are similar to this one. I'm dismayed that members like this are allowed to continue on TPU. :shadedshu They'd soon be gone from my forum, I can tell you. @Detection I'm sorry that I can't help with your card problem; it looks like the other posters may have been right about the wrong bios having damaged the card. Anyway, shit happens and it's really frustrating, I know. However, there's a small upside to this: you now have the perfect excuse to upgrade your card to something better! If you have the money and the PC/PSU, then I personally recommend a GTX 680.

So a lot of the 'stuff' in my life is self imposed, I have ridiculously high standards for myself and those around me which can be a pretty hefty burden to shoulder both for me and everyone else in my life. I have a need for things to be perfect but not just on a superficial level, and its draining, if I start a project or a task or even an idea by the time I have done all the thinking I do about it I figure its almost pointless starting as somewhere I will have found in my head a seemingly impassable hurdle or failure or a 'you cant do that because' its part of what I find most frustrating about my personality. It used to be about what people thought about me so if I did everything perfectly then everyone would love me and think Iwas a good /wife /mother /employee…I was subconsciously convinced that was how it worked, my self esteem completely driven by others perception of me, so if my house was perfect, my children well dressed, I was performing at work then all must be well with the world and everyone would think I was a good person..that's right isn't it?
No its bloody not right, not right at all, because what used to happen on a regular basis was that I would have the 'perfect house, the perfect husband, the perfect children, the perfect holidays and be a perfect employee' but inside I was dying and Icouldn't figure out why this stuff wasn't working for me and making me feel perfect too. What took so many years of therapy to realise is that perfect outside in no way means perfect inside , quite the opposite, that I am the only one who can make ME happy, and my perception of myself. I have learnt enough tricks through therapy to be able to give myself a good talking to and today is a day where I need to go and do that, today I feel full of doubt, self loathing, pitiful self esteem, negativity and I am struggling with it, so I need to sharpen my CBT tools and batter them away .
Tomorrow is another day, I always try to keep that in mind, tomorrow brings new hope and opportunity and another chance to put right what I feel is wrong. A few comments recently have thrown me sideways and I need to 'right' myself and go again, onwards and upwards, I am blessed, and these blessings need counting today.
On a brighter note I filled in my application for Uni yesterday, and poured my heart into a personal statement that I am sure will be nothing like they have seen before – not your usual 18 year old full of optimism and invincibility! But I am hoping that who ever reads it will get a proper understanding of why I want to be a counsellor, that goes above the fluff and nonsense of the usual, 'I like to work with children and enjoy socialising' that you normally get in these things.
We watched the hangover last night and it was utterly hilarious the sort of funny that has you bent double, tears rolling, then stupidly this morning I watched PS I Love You which I am sure is pretty much responsible for my low mood today. The nanny starts Tuesday and I start Wednesday so all change which again probably is participating in my melancholy mood, I am a nightmare with change, I know in my heart I will be fine but getting through the change is always tough for me, sorry for the downbeat blog today – I promise tomorrow will be a better day
