Quote of the Day
Earth laughs in flowers.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Oil prices continued to gain ground on Tuesday on a combination of additional short covering, an increase in China's crude oil imports by 3% for April, and concerns over the Mississippi flood possibly reaching the Gulf Coast and impacting refineries in that region (especially Louisiana). WTI has now regained about $9/bbl after hitting an intraday day low of $94.50/bbl last Thursday...also a key technical support level. The US dollar short covering rally seems to be losing some of its steam and as such the selling pressure from last week is starting to look like it may be over for the moment.
Overnight China released it latest on inflation. The CPI came in at 5.3% (versus an expectation of 5.2%) or a mild slowing for the month of April suggesting that this meteoritic economy may be finally starting to see some impact from the aggressive tightening that has been underway by the Chinese government for about a year. On the other side of the equation wholesale inflation as measured by the PPI came in at 6.8% versus an expectation of 7.3%. So on both accounts better than expected and enough to possibly indicate that China could be heading for a soft landing. For now the news out of China has been viewed by the market as the Chinese government may not ratchet up its inflation fighting and as such China's economy is likely to still grow at a decent pace keeping their voracious appetite for oil and other commodities in place.
Last night the API released their weekly oil inventory report which I would view as biased to the bearish side...except for gasoline. They reported a build of 2.9 million barrels of crude oil, a build of about 0.6 million barrels of distillate fuel and a surprise draw of about 1.8 million barrels of gasoline. At the moment the market is not reacting to the API report as the more widely followed EIA report will hit the media airwaves in a few hours. I am projecting the following for oil stocks for this week:
- Crude oil a build of 1.1 million barrels
- Gasoline a draw of 0.5 million barrels
- Distillate fuel a build of 1.2 million barrels
- Refinery runs increased by 0.3%
If my projections are in sync with the actual results I would expect the market to view the outcome of the reports with a downside bias. Of note last week there was a very large build in total commercial stocks beyond simply adding up the combination of crude oil, gasoline and distillate fuel suggesting a buildup in intermediate of unfinished products. If that was the case the risk to this week's EIA oil inventory report could be a larger than projected build in finished products and one that would result in the report turning out to be a bit more bearish than it is projected to be.
The Nat Gas market was not overly impacted by the outcome of the EIA Short Term Energy Outlook yesterday even now that the weather has become less of a factor on Nat Gas prices and the shoulder season is finally in full swing. The market is looking for guidance for its next move. I am still expecting the Nat Gas market to test the $4/mmbtu technical support level before making any major run back to the upside. The latest weather forecast out of NOAA is still a neutral of Nat Gas prices.
Thursday the EIA will release their latest Nat Gas injection report. I am expecting:
- A net injection into inventory of 95 BCF
- Versus an injection last year of 93 BCF
- ·an injection of 90 BCF for the five-year average for the same week.
Overall I am expecting this week's Nat Gas inventory report to be mostly neutral.
The EIA released the Short Term Energy Outlook yesterday. It was a neutral for the market in that they did lower their forecast for oil consumption for 2011, but by only about 100,000 barrels while increasing their forecast for 2012. Following are the main highlights for both oil and Nat Gas. The Nat Gas consumption forecast is projected to increase by 0.5% for 2011...again another neutral.
Crude Oil and Liquid Fuels Overview. EIA projects that total world oil consumption will grow by 1.4 million barrels per day (bbl/d) in 2011, which is about 0.1 million bbl/d lower than last month's Outlook, and 1.6 million bbl/d in 2012, slightly higher than forecast last month. Supply from non‐OPEC countries increases by an average of about 0.6 million bbl/d annually through 2012, which is about 0.2 million bbl/d higher than in last month's Outlook. OECD inventory reports for the first quarter 2011 have come in higher than EIA projected in last month's Outlook. Consequently, while EIA still expects the market will rely on both a drawdown of inventories and increases in the production of crude oil and non‐crude liquids in OPEC member countries to meet projected demand growth, the forecast for OPEC crude oil and liquid fuels production has been lowered from last month's Outlook by about 0.14 million bbl/d in 2011 and 0.5 million bbl/d in 2012.
Among the major uncertainties that could push oil prices above or below our current forecast are: Continued unrest in producing countries and its potential impact on supply; decisions by key OPEC-member countries regarding their production in response to the global increase in oil demand; the rate of economic growth, both domestically and globally; fiscal issues facing national and sub‐national governments; and China's efforts to address concerns regarding its growth and inflation rates.
Global Crude Oil and Liquid Fuels Consumption. World crude oil and liquid fuels consumption grew to 86.7 million bbl/d in 2010, surpassing the previous record of 86.3 million bbl/d set in 2007. EIA expects that world liquid fuels consumption will grow by 1.4 million bbl/d in 2011, followed by 1.6 million bbl/d growth in 2012, resulting in total world consumption of 89.7 million bbl/d in 2012. Countries outside the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) will make up almost all of the growth in consumption over the next two years, with the largest increases coming from China, Brazil, and the Middle East. EIA expects that, among the OECD nations, only the United States and Canada will show growth in oil consumption over the next two years, offsetting declines in OECD Europe and Japan.
OPEC Supply. Forecast OPEC crude oil production declines in 2011, falling by about 450,000 bbl/d, followed by an increase of 640,000 bbl/d in 2012. EIA assumes that about one-half of Libya's pre-disruption production will resume by the end of 2012. EIA projects that OPEC surplus capacity will fall from 3.9 million bbl/d at the end of 2010 to 3.6 million bbl/d at the end of 2011, followed by a further decline to 3.1 million bbl/d by the end of 2012. Forecast OPEC non‐crude liquids production increases by 0.8 million bbl/d in 2011 and by 0.4 million bbl/d in 2012.
OECD Petroleum Inventories. EIA expects that OECD onshore inventories will decline in 2011 following the steep drop in floating storage that has already occurred. Projected onshore OECD stocks fall by about 20 million barrels in 2011, followed by an additional 54 million barrel decline in 2012. Days of supply (total inventories divided by average daily consumption) drops from a relatively high 58.1 days during the fourth quarter of 2010 to 57.0 days in the fourth quarter 2011, and 55.7 days of supply in the fourth quarter 2012.
U.S. Liquid Fuels Consumption. Total consumption of liquid fuels increased by 380,000 bbl/d (2.0 percent) to 19.1 million bbl/d in 2010. The major sources of this consumption growth were distillate fuel oil (diesel fuel and heating oil), which grew by 160,000 bbl/d (4.5 percent), and motor gasoline, which increased by 40,000 bbl/d (0.4 percent). Projected total U.S. liquid fuels consumption increases by 140,000 bbl/d (0.7 percent) in 2011, and by a further 170,000 bbl/d (0.9 percent), to 19.5 million bbl/d, in 2012, which is still well below the record-high 20.8 million bbl/d in 2005.
In 2011, forecast distillate fuel consumption growth of almost 80,000 bbl/d (2.1 percent) accounts for over half of the forecast increase in liquid fuels consumption, while forecast growth in gasoline and jet fuel grow by just 16,000 bbl/d (0.2 percent) and 13,000 bbl/d (0.9 percent), respectively. In 2012 motor gasoline consumption rises by 75,000 bbl/d (0.8 percent), the highest growth rate since 2006, driven by growing population, rising employment, and rising income. Jet fuel consumption increases 23,000 bbl/d (1.6 percent) in 2012. In contrast, distillate fuel consumption growth moderates slightly to 66,000 bbl/d (1.7 percent) in 2012 as industrial output grows more slowly than in 2011.
U.S. Natural Gas Consumption. EIA expects total natural gas consumption to grow by 0.5 percent to 66.5 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) in 2011. Forecast industrial consumption rises 1.9 percent to 18.4 Bcf/d in 2011, and electric power consumption rises 0.4 percent to 20.3 Bcf/d.
Projected total consumption increases by 0.7 percent in 2012 to 67.0 Bcf/d. Growth continues in the industrial and electric power sectors at 1.4 percent and 2.6 percent, respectively. Residential and commercial consumption each decline by 1.6 percent in 2012 stemming from forecast 2.2 percent reduction in natural gas-weighted heating degree-days.
U.S. Natural Gas Production and Imports. Marketed natural gas production has been growing steadily since 2005, primarily because of the boom in horizontal drilling in unconventional shale formations. EIA expects total marketed production to average 1.4 Bcf/d (2.3 percent) higher in 2011 compared with last year. Marketed natural gas production fell by 1.1 Bcf/d in February 2011 from the month before, but this drop can largely be attributed to temporary factors including seasonal maintenance in the GOM and colder-than-normal weather in Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Wyoming which caused freeze-offs (gas flow blockages resulting from water vapor freezing in the gas stream), forcing temporary shut downs to lower-48 onshore production. EIA expects production will recover from February levels but begin modest month-to-month declines that could continue through the year because of reductions in the number of active natural gas drilling rigs.
U.S. Natural Gas Inventories. On April 29, 2011, working natural gas in storage stood at 1,757 Bcf, which is 226 Bcf below last year's level in late April. Cold temperatures and production freeze-offs in January and February contributed to relatively large draws on inventories early in the year. EIA expects that inventories, though lower than last year, will remain robust given higher forecast production throughout the 2011 injection season. Projected inventories near 3.9 Tcf at the end of October 2011 because of high production levels and a mild summer relative to last year.
My individual market view is detailed in the table at the beginning of the newsletter. I am still not sure how to suggest where the market is heading in the short term as the market is still in the emotional phase and anything out of the norm will result in an above average move in the short term. For the short term I am moving everything to neutral as I think we are close to a bottom in the current sell-off...especially if this week's fundamental and economic data is not very damaging. Longer term I still expect higher prices. Over the last twenty four hours there are more signs that the commodities rout may be over and it is time to once again start to reload from the long side. I will remain sidelined until I see how the market digests today inventories and the evolving flood situation.
I am maintaining my Nat Gas view at cautiously bearish but moving my bias back to neutral until I see how Nat Gas reacts to everything going on in the rest of the energy and commodity complex.

Whole Foods plans to open its new store in Detroit's Midtown neighborhood this spring.
The Austin, Texas-based natural grocery store chain announced Friday it plans to open the 21,650-square-foot supermarket on June 5 with about 75 employees.
Whole Foods Market Inc. says details about job openings will be posted online April 2.
Whole Foods will help fill a grocery void in the area. Detroiters have long complained about not having enough places to buy fresh fruit, vegetables and produce.
A groundbreaking for the store was held last year.

The sound isn't too great but better than most micro built-in speakers. The magnet is a good idea and has been useful. Here's something to know: it doesn't come with instructions because it's pretty obvious how to use it...except that it needs to be charged after several hours. For a long time I thought it was broken but then I finally thought, "I wonder why they included a USB cable...OHHHH!!!!" Embarrassing but it seems I'm not alone. There have been reviews about it not working and I'm guessing it probably needed to be charged.
I'm not sure the that this sounds better than the speakerphone inside most smartphones, but it can go just a bit louder. At least, a Note and an iPhone do alright for themselves. I wanted to use this on the baby stroller, but it just completely quit working. I guess it will not take a charge.
This speaker is great on paper. The functionality is great but it essentially needs to charge all the time. Limits usage, charging is easy enough but cant hold charge for more than a day.
Great little speaker. My only bad thing is it tends to loose charge rather quickly, but I really do enjoy it. It's super portable and provides great sounds. I use almost everyday. Would definitely recommend or buy as a gift.
The product never worked for me, no sound came out. It was also a cheap design that I'd never purchase.
Great product for the beach. Very trendy I like it a lot will purchase more for gifts I like it
This is a good idea but for it has severe limitations. The end effect of good sound is not achieved. These sound tinny at best but can provide sonic relief at a keyboard in a crowded work environment. These have a use but it is limited.
Love this little speaker. Battery lasts quite a while and I think it will be perfect for plugging into my phone during picnics or lunch stops on hikes. Not super load (obviously) but sounds better than my speaker phone. Magnet keeps it and its cord safe from getting lost but keeping it on my fridge.
What a great little speaker! Was a real treat as I was in a situation where one was needed! Thanks for including in my box.
If I am working out, no one else wants to hear my music, just as I do not want to hear what other people are listening to. Not really practical, and the magnet isn't strong enough to penetrate any heavier fabric.

Surroundings, Kathmandu
There are many towns and attractions in the area just outside of Kathmandu.
Related Attractions
Helambu Trek
Helambu RouteThe Helambu region inhabited by the Sherpas is situated in the upper part of the Malechmi Khola valley. It takes three days to reach this region walking north-east over a wooded mountain ridge from Kathmandu. The seven day walk is circular with the first day's section being repeated at the end of the walk. The sudden contrast between the lower and upper lying regions and their characteristic cultures is striking. Accommodation can be found in lodges, village guest houses or with Sherpa families.The starting point and final destination of this circular walk is Sundarijal at the eastern end of the Kathmandu Valley which can be reached from Kathmandu by bus or taxi.
Gosainkund Trek
GosainkundBy itself the Gosainkund route is a four day excursion from Kathmandu which can be combined with the Langtang or Helambu routes
Swayambhunath, sitting high upon a hilltop, is one of the most important shrines in the Kathmandu Valley. The Swayambhu Stupa, with painted eyes on top, is a regularly photographed image in Nepal.
Highlights: |
Boudha, Nepal
Boudha rests on the old trade route to Tibet. It has long been a religious center for the Tibetan community in Nepal. It is home to the largest stupa in Nepal, and numerous other important buildings.
Highlight: |
Budha Nilkantha, Narayanthan, Nepal
Budha Nilkantha in Narayanthan is among the oldest temples in the valley. Dedicated to Vishnu, the temple contains the ancient shrine of Jalashayana Narayan, a 6m long black stone sculpture.
Pashupatinath, Nepal
Pashupatinath is the primary Hindu shrine in Nepal and among the most important Shiva temples on the Indian subcontinent.
Highlights: |
Ichangu Narayan
The shrine to Ichangu Narayan ("Vishnu of the west") is situated in delightful surroundings at the tip of a mountain ridge overlooking the Ichangu Valley about 5 km (3 mi.) north-west of Kathmandu; it is reached by a dirt road. Ichangu Narayan is one of the four principal Narayan temples in the Kathmandu Valley. The cult site was probably already in use by the Newaris long before conversion to Hinduism. The present two-tiered pagoda dates from the 18th c., replacing an earlier temple built in 1512 after a famine.A small shrine to Bhagwati located above Ichangu Narayan offers a delightful view across the Ichangu Valley.
Vajra Yogini Temple, Pharping, Nepal
One of the tourist attractions in Pharping is the Vajra Yogini Temple, containing the shrine of Vajra Yogini on the upper floor.
Highlights: |
Daman, Nepal
DamanThe village of Daman lies on the Tribhuvan Highway mid way between Hetauda and Kathmandu. The 2322 m (7620ft)-high ridge affords the most spectacular view in all Nepal of the Himalayan chain with peaks from Dhaulagiri to Sargamatha (Everest) visible through the telescope on the viewing tower.

Highlight: |
Sundarijal, Nepal
Sundarijal, meaning "beautiful water", is situated about 5 km (3 mi.) beyond the Gokarna Mahadev Temple. Its crystal-clear streams and waterfalls in a forested setting make it popular for outings.Despite being one of the main sources of the Bagmati River Sundarijal's mighty, roaring falls dwindle to a miserable trickle in the dry season. In April in particular there is nothing much to see.A small cave at the foot of the hillside has long been used for the worship of various mother goddesses. There is a 13th c. relief and also a little shrine dedicated to Shiva.Sundarijal is the starting-point for hill walkers setting off up the delightful route to the 2400 m (7877 ft) Burang Banjyang Pass. The Helambu and Gosainkund trek also begins here.
Dhum Vahari
Beneath a huge pipal tree in the playground of the Shridhumrabarah Primary School on the way to Budha Nilkantha is a little open shrine to Varaha, an incarnation of Vishnu in the shape of a boar. What makes the shrine of such great interest is its devotional image, a 5th c. stone sculpture of the god. The snake at his feet symbolizes the underworld while the small female figure of Prithvi seated on his arm personifies mother earth. The statue conveys an impression of unusual strength and vitality.

Highlights: |
Nagarkot, approximately 30 km (18 miles) from Kathmandu is a hill town offering great views of the Himalayas. It is a cool retreat from the sometimes hot temperatures in Kathmandu. There are also hiking trails in this area, including a trail from Nagarkot to Bhaktapur.
Highlight: |
Thankot, Nepal
ThankotThankot, about 10 km (6 mi.) west of Kathmandu, was the last village in the valley on the old trade route over the Chandragiri Pass to India. Its principal temple, built in 1690 and dedicated to Mahalakshmi, occupies a charming site at the foot of a hill, framed by noble trees.

What is up with the file size on the sly collection? 23gb minimum free space needed, what is the maximum?. I really want this collection but the file size is so big I might have to buy it on the disk for twice the price which seems stupid when its on the psn store only 15 quid. I mean the jak and ratchet trilogies arnt that big so why does this one have to be massive?
Solved! Go to Solution.
on 01-07-2012 02:22 PM
If you buy the trilogy, you get each of the three games as a separate downloadable, so if you just want to have one of them on your HDD at any one time, you could just do that - and you'll need a third of the space.
As to why they take up that much space: presumably because that's how big they are...
on 01-07-2012 02:50 PM
Ah so I can download the first one, complete it and then delete it and then do the same with the 2nd and 3rd
on 01-07-2012 04:39 PM
Yep. And redownload them as many times as you like, to the same machine.
Sly 1 = 5.3 GB
Sly 2 = 7.3 GB
Sly 3 = 11 GB

Unfortunately, unlike other online game services like Steam, when you download something from PSN it's not installed right away, but have to be installed. So you download the 11GB install files and then it needs another 11GB to be installed to. So during the download/install process you need 22GB. But after the install, the install files are deleted and "only" 11GB remains.

THankyou so much for the help, how am i supposed to get another 9gb free space i stripped my games and my saved data what else can i do? is it possible to have all three games on one ps3?

Sounds like you need a bigger hard drive! In the meantime, note that any games you've bought from the Store can be downloaded as often as you like from your downloads list, so it's safe to delete Sly 1 and Sly 2 - you'll be able to download them back to that PS3 at any time in the future if you want to.

"What is Burning Man?" - I wish I had a simple answer like, "It is an art festival." or "It is a music festival" or "It is a hippie thing." - But Burning Man is incredibly complex. With 60,000 people - Burning Man becomes ALL things.... If you want to dance, Burning Man has dance clubs, big beautiful and vast. If you love art, there are over 500 art installations, spread out for miles in the desert, they will even give you a guided tour. If you are a recovering alcoholic, they have AA camp and meetings every day. If you love yoga and spirituality, they have classes all day, every day. They have silly camps like dodge ball camp and taco camp and happy candy camp and Lord of the Rings camp. Literally, if you can dream up a camp, it exists there..... They even have a Zombie Unicorn camp (whatever that might be...)
And all that stuff is fun... yep
But... I would not drive 5,000 miles for silly camps in the desert, nope - The magnet that pulls me to Burning Man... is the COMMUNITY!..... Neighbors at this festival really become your family, your closest friends... Can you imagine knowing every single person on your street where you live? At Burning Man - that happens.. By the end of the week, you know every single person on your street. You share meals together, you share you stories together, you share your costumes and your batteries and your tiki lights.... You sit under tents in sandstorms together. These people come from all over the world - Japan, Australia, Belize, Iceland....The atmosphere is unbelievable and full of culture and friendly faces.
I love this festival like no other..... It keeps a light inside of me going.... It reinforces my idea that ALL things are possible... The biggest step to Burning Man, is just *getting* there... Once you are there, the city, the art, the landscape, the people, and the community embrace you... It is an beautiful festival.

The Speakers...Throughout Man's history there have been Speakers; Energy Gestalts of Conciousness sent to earth in various forms to interact with Man and remind us of who we truly are. Many of these Energy Personalities have been "Channelled" through humans. Seth is one such channeled personality, and is likely the same energy gestalt that includes Abraham through Esther Hicks, Guy Ballard and St. Germain, Edgar Cayce and others in our contemporary era.In September of 2009, I became acquainted w …

I like it. Very speedy delivery....will be exchanging it for a smaller size though. Slightly disappointing since I tried the same ring on at a jewelry store and was specifically sized for this ring before ordering it through Overstock. Oh, well...will see how the exchange process goes.
I ordered this ring as a wedding band for my fiance and it looks amazing. The picture really does not do the ring justice as it is much shinier in person. However, the ring was just about .5 bigger than what we measured so we are returning it for a smaller size. Still, this ring looks wonderful and is complementary to another ring that I bought for myself as a wedding band. Your man will not be disappointed!
Beautiful ring. My size 13 seems to be a correct sizing. I believe this is a very very good deal compared to the jewelry store.
This ring was exactly as described on the website. And for the price, I could not of made a better purchase. Looks great and fits perfect!!!
I bought this ring for my husband for our wedding. He wanted something durable, but simple. He's not into all the bling. It's the perfect width and size. A jeweler told him he was a 13, but the 12.5 fits him much better. Very good looking ring, that has proven to be durable for the couple of months we've had it. Originally bought this ring back in March, and he lost it...so re-ordered it again.
My husband likes tungsten for the durability and it looks nice. The color perfectly matches my white gold wedding set. Love this ring.
My new husband and I chose this ring because he's a baker and works with his hands all day. He can't have something that scratches easily or that has grooves in it. This suits him perfectly. It's the kind of ring that will still look good 10 years from now. Very happy with this purchase.

This is my first time here and i like the idea of making connections between players. So, i would like to try a sekirei or shaman king based rp. Both revolve around players and their protectors or guardians. I would like for players to pair up to play the master (i hate this term) and protector/guardian. If you guys don't like that idea, one player can play both characters. If you are not too familiar with either of the two anime, you can read over these for some insight:
Shaman King
Feel free to ask any questions. If you express interest, please let me know for which of the two. Thank you!

With beating Stanford in overtime last weekend to improve to 6-0, Notre Dame's football record is translating into increased merchandise sales both in the local market and nationwide.
"I can tell you that our sales for the third quarter, compared to the same period last year, are up 31.3 percent," says Michael Low, Notre Dame's director of licensing. That's compared to the same period of 2011.
More jerseys, sweatshirts, scarves, blankets, mugs, key chains and other Notre Dame licensed merchandise are being sold to fans and consumers across the country now than in each of the past three seasons.
Granted, the economic downturn played a part in the consumers purchasing fewer Notre Dame items during the last three years.
"Buyers were reluctant, or unable to invest in their inventories," Low says.
But not any more.
Notre Dame had been the second-best selling school in the country on Fanatics.com, behind Alabama this season.
The ranking recently changed in favor of the Irish.
Notre Dame became the top-selling school in the country last week, and it remains to date in the top spot, Fanatics.com officials say.
Interestingly, Fanatics.com says 91 percent of its Notre Dame customers this season live outside the state of Indiana. Irish merchandise and the ND brand has been sold to customers in all 50 states, says the online retailer of officially licensed sports merchandise.
About 26 percent of ND merchandise purchased in September was ladies merchandise, Fanatics.com says.
Low believes the great beginning to the football season, combined with the positive exposure from the Dublin game and the Shamrock Series game in Chicago, have also helped boost sales far and near this fall.
Fans are buying more ND merchandise and more food for tailgating, and their cheerful mood creates excitement on Game Day, says Rick Zeeff, Bremen Highway Meijer store director.
"If they were 3-and-3 it would be completely different than when they are 6-and-0," Zeeff says. "I don't know how many losses it would take to bring people back down to earth this season. I don't think it's possible this year."
Cragan's Irish Imports, a locally owned shop located on Edison Road, just east of Notre Dame's campus in South Bend, has also noticed a sales boost this season.
"If the men are coming on a 'boys trip' then the ladies will receive a nicer gift. When the team loses, not so much," says Barbara Mickow, Cragan's manager.
The best-selling price point this season is between $30 and $100, and includes Irish-imported jewelry, sweaters, flat caps and capes.
"We'll never do numbers like the bookstore, but we have a very nice following -- especially during the home games, and that helps us make our year," she says. "Even the ladies are interested in what's going on on the field this season. That's not always the case."
For now, area Meijer stores will keep ND displays near the front doors so local patrons and out-of-town visitors have no need to search.
Employee schedules also will remain adjusted to meet heavier pre- and post-game consumer demand.
"When they're winning, everyone wants a car flag. When they're losing, everyone puts them in the trunk," Zeeff says. "(Their record) impacts our business so much, I want 'em to win them all."

Kirkland's is expected to officially open its doors today at 5912 Grape Road, Mishawaka, at Indian Ridge Plaza. A grand opening is planned for Nov. 3 and 4. ... Utopia Coffee Shop & Bakery is celebrating its opening on Monday at 104 E. Division St., Dowagiac. ... Saturday is the grand reopening sale at the renovated Better World Books outlet store at 55740 Currant Road, Mishawaka.

With four weeks left until Election Day, statewide candidates running for Virginia offices continued making the rounds Sunday at a Minority Chamber Candidates' Forum at Northern Virginia Community College's Annandale campus.
More than 200 people attended the forum, which is the first of its kind and was hosted by the Virginia Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, the Asian American Chamber of Commerce and the Northern Virginia Black Chamber of Commerce also sponsored the event.
Congressman Gerry Connolly (D-11th) delivered the welcoming remarks and Dr. Jim McClellan, dean of Liberal Arts at the Alexandria campus of NVCC served as moderator for the event.
Candidates who attended included: Virginia gubernatorial candidates Democrat Terry McAuliffe, Republican Ken Cuccinelli and Libertarian Robert Sarvis, Republican lieutenant governor candidate, E.W. Jackson and Republican attorney general candidate Mark Obenshain; Democratic attorney general candidate Mark Herring; representatives and candidates for the Virginia House of Delegates Del. Eileen Filler Corn, (D-41st), Del. Vivian Watts (D-39th), Marcus Simon, candidate for the 53d District, Del. Ken Plum (D-36th), Del. Mark Keam (D-35th), Del Alfonso Lopez (D-49th), Del. Charniele Herring (D-46th), Del. Tom Rust (R-86th), Patrice Winters, Republican candidate for the 37th district; and Fairfax County candidates for sheriff Stacey Ann Kincaid (D) and Fredy Burgos (R).
Cuccinelli and McAuliffe traded remarks during the two-hour long forum, with Cuccinelli telling a crowd of about 200 people that McAuliffe was not qualified, according to WAMU. McAuliffe in turn accused criticized Cuccinelli for appearing at a fundraiser with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), WAMU reports.
"It's the obligation of Virginians to send a message to Washington," McAuliffe said. "A government shutdown should never be a bargaining chip."
Topics raised during the forum ranged from the government shutdown to health care to the economy.

You see, yes, page one is correct about the neck being a good place to kiss but those places they suggest don't do it for me. And I'm a busy lady. So I felt a little let down. But who am I to say this won't work for you and the lady you're trying to get?

But today was our lucky day and she finally accepted our invitation. She came by in the sexiest outfit we had ever seen and we just had to have some of those juicy Big Natural boobies. Eloa was from France and she was a a bit timid but after a few photos and some provocative talks we got her to unleash those bad boys and put on quite the show!

Hey Girl, I don't care that you spent $100 on pregnancy tests, I know it's all worth it so you can share that BFP with your surro sisters!
Hey Girl, I'm sorry these babies are making you sick; don't worry about the kids or the laundry, I've got it taken care of… oh, and can I get you anything… crackers, ginger ale, me!?!?
Hey Girl, Now that your maternity leave is over, of course you'll have my emotional support and help with the house and kids if you want to go back to work. But if you'd rather stay home, I'm happy to get a second job so I can give you my financial support - and help with the household and kids, of course. Your choice.
Hey Girl, I know all of these match meetings stress you out, but before you know it, you'll be knocked up with another person's baby again. Maybe this one will even want to do a sibling project.
Hey Girl, Don't worry, I don't think she'll be asking you again whether you've had that baby yet.
Hey Girl, The new nanny might sing them to sleep, but your body nourished, protected, and housed them for nine long months. NO comparison.
Hey Girl, No rush, you just gave birth! I know it will be perfect, whenever YOU're ready.
Hey Girl, I got something real important to give you, so just sit down & listen. I know your IPs aren't the giftey type, so to celebrate the baby's birth, I got you this gift… in a box.
Hey girl, You just gave birth yesterday, but if you're ready to start that sibling project like your IPs want, I'm totally on board.
Hey Girl, Don't worry about chatting with your surro-sisters all day instead of cleaning the house. I understand; I totally love placenta pics as much as the next guy!
Hey girl, You make carrying surro-twins look easy.
Hey Girl, You've got this. Fresh vs frozen only matters when it involves fruits and veggies. I totally know kids today who were totsicles a few years ago.
Hey Girl, Since your IM is too busy to deliver, I made you Philly cheesesteak. No, I'm not going to waste time getting dressed before I bring it over.
- I wish my job was to just make Ryan Gosling 'hey girl' memes all day.

I use dolly (http://www.cs.inf.ethz.ch/CoPs/patagonia/ and search for dolly) from which nettee is forked and pdsh (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdsh). Both are great but dolly has certain advantages for my environment. In my case, I wrap it up in a service delivery tool for a 50 node cluster where rapid deployment is key. It is just some perl code that essentially looks like this: foreach list_of_machines if they answer, add them to the list done login to the nodes via pdsh to start the dolly processes perform the transfer done! There is actually a lot more to my code, but it is all environment specific and deals with managing our custom apps. I can push 1.6G (which includes an svn checkout over the wire) to all nodes in approx 15 minutes. The checkout is the longest part, the actual file copy to the nodes is less than 5 minutes with our GigE network. The nodes are busy processing while the data transfer is in progress (this is an HA cluster). When I researched this initially, I found there were actually a lot of environment specific questions I needed answered, hence a lack of real standardization on how these things are done. Scaling is often the hardest part... at least IMO. I will say that my dream would be for something like dolly to get some sort of transfer recovery mechanism, though I realize that would be quite difficult in such a topology. As an aside, I know that the dolly author (Felix) reads this list. I assume dolly itself is now unmaintained?

Committee Questions Handling of Contaminated Water at Camp Lejeune
- Categorized in: Department of Defense (DoD), October 2010, Toxic Exposure
WASHINGTON, DC—A House subcommittee was critical of the military's treatment of Marines and dependents who were exposed to contaminated drinking water while living at Camp Lejeune.
In 1980, warnings of the base's drinking water began to surface and by the mid 1980s the wells located there were shut down. Since then, concern has arisen for the health of Marines and their dependents who, over a 30-year period, were believed to have potentially been exposed to toxic chemicals before the base shut down the wells. Questions have also arisen as to why the contaminated wells were not shut down sooner.
At a hearing held last month, Rep Brad Miller, D-NC, chairman of the Investigation and Oversight Subcommitte of the House Committe on Science and Technology, accused the Navy of "failing to act quickly or forcefully enough in the 1980s" to shut down wells it knew were contaminated.
Furthermore, while he said that he was pleased that VA has begun to extend benefits for cancers that it views as "more than likely than not" caused by drinking the water, he was critical that the Navy continues to wait for more scientific information before doing so. "Toxic chemicals and human health tends to be about probabilities, not certainties. Science will never give the Navy certainty and so long as they wait, no veteran and no family members will ever receive their due from the Navy," Miller asserted.
Veterans Testify
Testifying before the subcommittee, James L Watters, a retired Navy Medical Service Corps commander who served at Camp Lejeune from 1977 to 1979, said that in November of 2007 he was diagnosed with advanced renal cell carcinoma. In 2008, he received a letter from the Marine Corps General advising him that he had been exposed to trichloroethylene (TCE) and other hazardous chemicals while serving at Camp Lejeune. He believes his renal cell carcinoma is linked to the TCE exposure.
He said he was eventually, after some difficulties, able to get his claim accepted by VA in order to obtain benefits for his family after his death, but that he was upset that the Marine Corps and Navy notified him by letter of this exposure 21 years after they knew. "It is important to note that this letter came 21 years after the USMC and the Department of Navy knew, in 1987, that I and many others had been exposed to volatile organic compounds," he stated.
Two men who had been diagnosed with breast cancer said that they believe their cancer is linked to exposure at Camp Lejeune. Michael Partain said he was born on Camp Lejeune where he believes that his mother had been exposed to hazardous materials in the tap water during her pregnancy. He is one of 64 men who share the unique commonality of male breast cancer and exposure to contaminated tap water at Camp Lejeune.
Peter Devereaux was a Marine stationed at Camp Lejeune in the 1980's and he also testified of being diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer. "I decided to move forward with genetic testing for the breast cancer gene, which I tested negative for both. It was then that I really understood my cancer came from my chemical exposure due to the chemicals in the drinking water," he asserted.
Government Officials Testify
Testifying before the committee, Maj Gen Eugene Payne, Jr, who was formerly responsible for Marine Corps facilities including environmental protection, said that the Navy has funded $22 million in research to better understand how the contamination may have impacted Marines living there. A call center and internet-based notification registry were also established to collect contact information from anyone who believes they were affected by the contamination, and which will be used to provide current information on the issue to them. So far, Payne said that over 163,000 individuals have joined the registry.
The FY 2008 National Defense Authorization Act also mandated the Navy to attempt to directly notify former residents of Camp Lejeune of their potential exposure to the chemicals. The act also required the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) to develop a health survey to be included with the notification letter.
Still, Payne acknowledged that he would have given anything to "roll back the clock" when asked by the subcommittee about whether there was anything in the last 30 years that he would change in the Marine Corps' response to the water contamination. While he was not in this position, he acknowledged that some aspects of the handling of the matter were "astounding, " adding "I have only worked on this for about three years, and one can only shake their head and wonder at some of things that did or did not occur."
Christopher Portier, PhD, director for ATSDR, said that the agency is embarking on studies to better understand the impact of the contaminated water, such as a mortality study of former Marines and civilian employees who were at Camp Lejeune. In addition, a health survey will obtain information about cancers and other diseases thought to be related to exposures to the chemicals found in the drinking water.
ATSDR also removed a Public Health Assessment (PHA) completed in 1997 from its website last year that addressed environmental contamination at Camp Lejeune in light of new information it found suggesting the possibility of increased risks to those who were exposed. He said that the agency "plans to reassess the drinking water pathway and revise the PHA when water modeling analyses are completed."
Thomas Pamperin, associate deputy undersecretary for policy and program management for VA's Veterans Benefits Administration, testified that VA is processing disability claims based on service at Camp Lejeune and possible exposure to chemical contaminants on a case-by-case basis because the science is currently inconclusive of the long-term health effects of the contaminated water at Camp Lejeune. "Establishing presumptive diseases at this point would be premature."
Devereaux and Watters, however, said that they wish that VA would "speed up" the disability claims process. "It was very difficult to go through this process and I hope that they speed up this process. There are a lot of people in my situation, who unfortunately, do not have a lot of time to live," said Devereaux.
Furthermore, Devereaux and Watters said that they were concerned that dependents who may have health problems linked to the water cannot file a claim with the VA for their exposure since they are dependents and not veterans. "It would be unfair to not address their concerns and do something about their health issues," said Watters.

One day I was talking with a ward clerk I worked with in the past.
There was a community blood drive going on and we talked about donating.
He reported that as he had been stationed in Great Britain during the 1980's with the USAF
He could not donate.
Curious I checked the Red Cross website and found:
From http://www.redcrossblood.org/donating-blood/eligib... Disease (CJD)/ Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE),
"In-Depth Discussion of Variant Creutzfeld-Jacob Disease and Blood Donation
In some parts of the world, cattle can get an infectious, fatal brain disease called Mad Cow Disease. In these same locations, humans have started to get a new disease called variant Creutzfeld-Jacob Disease (vCJD) which is also a fatal brain disease. Scientists believe that vCJD is Mad Cow Disease that has somehow transferred to humans, possibly through the food chain.
There is now evidence from a small number of case reports involving patients and laboratory animal studies that vCJD can be transmitted through transfusion. There is no test for vCJD in humans that could be used to screen blood donors and to protect the blood supply. This means that blood programs must take special precautions to keep vCJD out of the blood supply by avoiding collections from those who have been where this disease is found.
At this time, the American Red Cross donor eligibility rules related to vCJD are as follows:
You are not eligible to donate if:
You were a member of the of the U.S. military, a civilian military employee, or a dependent of a member of the U.S. military who spent a total time of 6 months on or associated with a military base in any of the following areas during the specified time frames
• From 1980 through 1990 - Belgium, the Netherlands (Holland), or Germany
• From 1980 through 1996 - Spain, Portugal, Turkey, Italy or Greece."
Have your VA bonuses been cut in recent years and are you concerned about getting merit pay in the future?

You might also have to pay somebody to chart everything if you or your band are unable to set it up yourselves.
So pretty much if your music is unsuccessful you won't be able to do it. But my question is do you actually need a xbox 360 to do this, or can I do it on my PC.
I'm going for RBN check me out @
What do you mean by "unsuccessful"?
The purpose of this program is to give bands and labels the tools to get their work into Rock Band. As far as we know, the only way a song gets rejected is if it fails to pass the verification process.
You need both a Xbox 360 and a PC.
You need the PC to create the charts and submit the files to RBN. The 360 to test your songs in the Rock Band environment.
so as a Wii user with inability to get XBA or XBL i'm screwed?
I have a cousin with an Xbox, No RB2 and Possibly XB-whatev membership, so i have hope...
I Think i need a band first.. lol

THIS POST IS A LIE!!! But our love is not.
I just felt like saying something completely random that i don't understand - Zamxus
Since it takes a huge amount of work and time to just chart songs and to then pay money to be able to upload them, if a band doesn't get a good return from the tracks I don't think bands will go very far with it. Especially since we will be seeing a lot of random people trying to get famous by getting music on rock band.
I'm going for RBN check me out @
The only money that is paid is the XNA and XBL fees. Those are yearly fees. There is NO fee to upload material. As far as we know, there is no limit to the amount of songs a band can put up.
RBN is giving indie bands the opportunity to use RB to get their work known, but it isn't going to do all the work for them. The band has to help themselves along with it. If bands want to maximize their sales they are going to have to do some promotion work on their using such things as Facebook, MySpace or Youtube.
What exactly is considered a good return?
Lets use the bare minimum cost of a song, $1.00. Bands will get a cut of $0.30 a song, so to make up the cost for XNA and XBL, lets say $160, a band needs to sell around 575 songs. Once the fees are recovered, everything after that is profit.

7 Low Sugar Tips Anyone Can Adopt
First, I'd like to reiterate something I said yesterday on Facebook. If you're not yet a fan, go ahead and "like" me because there's lots of additional conversations, photos, and questions that never make it on to the actual blog! I started a devotional plan yesterday - 35 days of a bit of Bible plus a story / message that goes along with it. I've "wanted" to be a consistent reader (of the Bible) in the past, but haven't made it a habit. Then I started questionning myself on whether I should even sign up because it'd probably be too much and in a week I'd be behind, and then I'd just feel bad. But then I read the first day's message which was all about not worrying about tomorrow and living for today. Which made me think about weightloss and the healthy happy life I'm trying to achieve.
Which brings me to what I wrote on FB:
Do you ever get overwhelmed (like I do) thinking about all you have to do over the next few days/weeks/months to accomplish your weightloss goal (or savings goal, or reading plan, or ...). STOP. Just focus on today. Make good choices TODAY that will help you get there! Stop worrying about tomorrow and the week after that and the month after that. Which brings me to today's post, with some practical tips you can adopt that will help you reduce your daily sugar intake TODAY.
7 tips on how to reduce your Sugar Intake:
1. Read Labels. I went to my local market recently and was shocked appalled to see the following ingredients when I flipped around a can of Sweet Kernel Corn: Corn, Sugar. Seriously?!? "They" need to make sweet corn SWEETER by adding sugar? That's just wrong. Luckily I found a similar can without the added sugar. But if I hadn't checked, I easily would have bought the can with extra sugar. The hard part is that EVERYTHING has sugar in it these days! Bread, ketchup, CORN, peanut butter. You name it, it probably has sugar. So be diligent to check the labels. Find lower sugar versions (not that just have an alternate sugar like sucralose or asparthame, but that actually have LESS of ANY sweetener). Another example... bbq sauce. I looked at probably 12 different brands/flavors comparing sugar content and finally decided on one with half the sugar grams: Stubb's Hickory Bourbon (7g of sugar per 2 Tbsp, compared with 15g+ in most other brands). It was a bit more tangy than the sweet honey bbq sauce Dear Hubby was used to, but overall we liked it.
2. Rethink Dessert. I don't know what it is about Americans, but we feel we DESERVE dessert. I'm not really sure why. We feel we are not really "living life" or are depriving ourselves unjustly if we go without dessert, even for one day. Oh I'll diet, but I still need Cheesecake. Oh I'm overweight, but let me have more ice cream before bed. Newsflash people, you don't NEED dessert. Go ahead and hate me now, but it's true. Your life would be just as good without it. How do I know? Because mine has been! I went almost 6 months without having a real "dessert", even subbing fruit and a yogurt cream sauce out for traditional cake at my birthday festivities. I'm not saying never have dessert, or that you need to do it exactly like I did. But do we really need dessert every day? Do we really need to celebrate every birthday and holiday with candy, sweets, pies, cookies, cakes, and ice cream? Another example... these cupcakes at the Blend Retreat (shown below thanks to Lauren). Everyone raved about them; I passed. I can honestly say, my life is just as good now (2 months later) having NOT eaten them than had I eaten the extra sugar. No difference. Did I deserve them? Maybe. I was going to be doing some major hiking the next day. Did I need them? No.
3. Substitute. This is my favorite way to cut added sugar. Substitute greek yogurt and bananas in breads to reduce the amount of sugar needed to sweeten them. Substitute sliced tomatoes and drizzled mustard on a burger instead of sugar-filled ketchup. Substitute sliced fresh strawberries on a pb&j instead of sugar-filled jelly. You get the idea :)
4. Watch what you drink. Whew. So many drinks these days are LOADED with sugar! Some "juices" only contain 5% actual juice! Say what?! Beware my friends. Beware. Sugar-y drink habit #1 to kick: sodas - both regular AND diet. I would say aim for once a month or less, but at that point you probably won't even want it anymore b/c it will taste so syrup-y and unhealthy. Wean yourself... 2 a day, down to 1 a day, down to 1/2 a day, down to none. Aim for drinking mostly water, some unsweet teas - green and black, some fresh veggies juices, some milk or almond milk, and maybe coffee (though that dang creamer needs to go!). Supposedly there's a "good" recipe for making your own flavored creamers sweetened with dates..but I haven't mustered up the courage to try it yet. It seems sooooooo tedious!
5. Prepare by bringing healthy snacks. Don't let your office make you fat! Plan ahead. Bring hummus or nuts/seeds or greek yogurt or toast with peanut butter or kale chips... anything for that afternoon pick-me-up that is NOT candy!
6. Reboot - train your body to need less sugar. The more sugar you consume, the more your body wants it. Similarly, the less sugar you consume, the less your body wants it. Reboot your body into craving fruits, veggies, and healthy foods. That's what was so beneficial for me to do a juice reboot. I retrained myself not to want/need sweets.
7. Reward yourself differently. Don't reward yourself (or others) with food/sweets. Reward yourself with other things: a manicure, a new book, a trip to the movies, a new workout shirt, or even a photoshoot (like I did after losing over 50 lbs)!

great great post! i did the
great great post! i did the same thing with the bbq sauce the other day at the store! i also ended up with the stubb's brand. :) one thing that i've really cut back on is flavored yogurts (greek yogurt too!). i know the protein content is great, but there's a lot of extra sugar in those babies. i try to keep them for "treats" every once in awhile.
I know -- i hate that there's
I know -- i hate that there's so much sugar in Greek yogurt sometimes. I'm always thinking I need to find away to eat the plain!! Lol. Hasn't worked yet. But it has made choose eggs instead sometimes.
Plain mixed with fruit
I like the plain greek yogurt ok, but I love taking a fresh apricot or strawberries and combining with plain yogurt. Granola is a good mixture, too!
Awesome. I need to add your
Awesome. I need to add your blog page on my facebook. I love additional conversations. Lol. And i totally agree with the low sugar tips. I love what you said about your life is JUST AS GOOD a few months later even though you didn't have that cupcake. And you can live without it!! The longest I've gone is probably a month, but you can totally do it!!! I hate bananas but they are a good sweetness substitute in baking/smoothies. Greek yogurt too!!! And you have to read the labels. I used to just look at calories, but I learned my lesson on sugar this year!!
And I love the new "your ad
And I love the new "your ad here"!!!!! Those are actually really cute. I hope you become a filthy rich blogger and I was one of your first readers!! Lol. Seriously!
Sugar mama
Great tips, Kelly- and I definitely agree that Americans eat way too much sugar in general. I definitely have a sweet tooth- but have found tons of healthy substitutions that satisfy my cravings.
And you're right- you don't HAVE to have dessert- but it's also OKAY to have dessert. I can justify having a scoop of REAL FULL FAT ice cream or a small cupcake, because I know that the other 99% of what I eat is clean and healthy. I don't think there's anything wrong with having a little dessert every once in a while- and I think it's actually a good thing. I have found that if I deny myself too much, I get bitter, and then go way overboard when I have the "real" thing. It's definitely all about moderation.
Luckily for me, most of the foods I WANT to eat are not sugar-laden, because I know how they make me feel. And I'm a big fan of PLAIN yogurt- and adding my own fruit. :)
A solution to the coffee dilemma
Use actual cream! Or half & half if you're a calorie counter. But those "non-dairy creamers" scare me... I'll stick to real food, thanks. :) Oh, and "100% fruit juice"? Just say no. It's pretty much extracted fructose with the beneficial fiber tossed away.
These are really great tips, thank you! My husband and i have actually selected that same bbq sauce before, so we're on the same page. We also looove a little piece of dark chocolate after dinner. It has very little sugar and a whole slew of health benefits.
hidden sugar and HFCS.
Another place I've found lots of hidden sugar - spaghetti sauce! I found one brand that didn't have any extra sugar but I can't remember off the top of my head what it was. The other thing I try to look out for is high fructose corn syrup (hfcs). This week I've been trying to eat only things that I bought in the produce section. Keeps me safe from hidden no-no's.
Tell me about it!
A few years ago, I discovered corn was causing the migraines I had been having. It is sooo hard to find products without corn in them! On the plus side, I pretty much have to eat whole foods to stay migraine free :)
Rewarding with food is a HUGE NO NO
I hear my friends say it all the time after a workout or a long day, I deserve this, I worked hard. I'm like youre not a dog.
Just found your blog! Love it
Just found your blog! Love it. Pinned just about every recipe you've ever made. Can't wait to try the lemon broccoli chicken using lemon chobani. So smart, never would of thought of that!
Great Tips
I already emailed my favorite store asking them for more healthy store brand canned goods hopefully (no sugar, less salt) since they are still a growing chain they will listen and provide better choices, and I agree even the FF 1/2 and 1/2 is 20 calories per 2 TBSP, I have now switched to Blue Diamond unsweetened Vanilla Almond milk in my coffee, now it tastes like a fancy coffee house drink, and this morning I had some left in my cup that got cold, that was really yummy, may have to make some ice cubes and then blend into my own custom Frappe'. Congrats on the Foodgawker positioning, next stop FOOD NETWORK!
Food Network :(
I wish I had a contact over there, I would so recommend you, I have been watching bits and pieces of new FN star, sometimes seems like worse cooks in america episodes, can't believe some of their skills. Well I am rooting for Alton's team just because he is the only host I watch regularly, I love the science of it all, na Garten is another Fav but I have seen all her re-runs. Keep on bloggin' love your recipes
I totally agree with you!! I try to cut back on sugar wherever I can! If I want a sugary treat, I reach for fruit! I've learned to adapt my life on limiting my sweets. If I need something sweetened like coffee I use Stevia! I love it!
Love all these tips. I'm a
Love all these tips. I'm a substitute queen :) I think I've literally become incapable of making a recipe with substituting at least 1 thing for a healthier version. I cringe at the thought of traditional recipes now.
*without* not with!
*without* not with!
I used to drink Coke Zero
I used to drink Coke Zero every day. It's not sugar, but artificial sweeteners aren't good for us either. I love bubbles in my drinks so I switched to unsweetened, flavored sparkling waters, such as La Croix or Canada Dry.
These are great tips...I am a substitute queen too...I am ALWAYS modifying recipes!! I just found your blog and I am excited to have another Denver based healthy living blogger (I am at lizashlee.com)! I just moved to Denver in late April...excited to follow you! Have a great night!
No Sugar Never Sounded So Good!
I really have to commend you, Kelly. When I read your posts, I sometimes think about how healthy your little girl is and will continue to be as she grows. What a gift you are giving her by giving her such a healthy and well-rounded start. After all, we are what we eat! And how lucky is she that she won't grow up wired to eat sugar and fast food like so many other kids. It's so inspiring to have you lead by example!
I will repost...this what I do too! New drink!
I have a great drink you may want to share with your readers that is 'the bomb' and almost no calories, very healthy and refreshing!! I will let you know. Love all you said while I have no time to write it so I will re-post this. We make very specific choices when we shop. We are healing from a bone marrow transplant after all. Good for you on staying home, I love it and have never looked back....so will you!
Found your site on FitBlogger
Found your site on FitBlogger and thought I'd stop by and check it out. I am a nurse with diabetes that's passionate about food & nutrition & eating lower carbs. Just subscribed to your feed and can't wait to see what your next post will be!
I NO LONGER feel alone! :)
I love your blog!! Started my blog January 2012 to fight my sugar addiction and called it, Toss the Sugar (Fitness) to remind me of what has literally courted me for years successfully... From 175 pounds I am now around 135-140 and have kept it there by paying close attention to my sugar intake... I strongly believe it is one of the biggest culprits of obesity as it is addicting (of course, being human and our personal choices add to that) --- Anyway, just feel great to find you online! <3 Katrina, Toss the Sugar Fitness on Facebook (by that, of course, I mean processed sugar)
I like your tips. When I was
I like your tips. When I was a teenager I read "Sugar Blues" and decided to give up sugar for a year, I felt so much better when I gave up that poison. Now I have kids and I am having the hardest time kickin the sugar habit, I am thin, but I have a hard time giving up sugar like I did when I was a teenager.
I saved your blog to my favorites and hope to try some of your recipes. I am jucing with a Belville juicer and hoping to get off my 7 mgs of prednisone like the man in the documentary.
Great simplistic and motivational ideas. I love the idea of starting with the reboot, even if your "reboot" is something less intense, just to give your body that clean slate. Also how you tied in the Biblical standpoint. What better motivation for your body than the Bible! Thanks for your blog, it was great to stumble upon! :-)
Awesome! Love these tips.
