About Mongkok Dimsum & Noodles:
If you're in for big eats, buffet dining is the best way to go. So many restaurants in the Metro now offer themed eat-all-you-can promos that choosing from them becomes as hard as picking on which dish to dig in from the many table offerings. Whenever you plan to go out for a buffet meal, it is best to consider whether the price is worth all the pigging out you'll be able to hold. And if you're weight-conscious, is the fare well-worth skipping on your eating regimen? For a buffet delight that is as valuable as all of your eating considerations, try Mongkok Dimsum & Noodles's economically and gastronomically friendly eat-and-drink-all-you-can promo.
At Mongkok Dimsum and Noodles, diners can expect a diverse menu—prepared the Cantonese way. From the familiar siomai to the unique duck pao, the restaurant also serves a wide selection of dimsum. This includes various types of steamed buns and dumplings, which contain a range of ingredients—from beef, chicken, pork, seafood, vegetables to sweets. Their appetizers, soups, congee, noodles, fried rice and rice toppings are also must-try mouth-watering treats. They also have specialty dishes included in the menu. A good selection of desserts and beverages complete the dining experience.
For your next Cantonese fix, head on over to Mongkok, one of the country's top restaurants aimed at bringing the delectable flavors of Hong Kong to the country.
Prices are reasonable and the food is really good. It's not your average Chinese food made with heaps of MSG. The stir-fry Cantonese Chow Mein is really yummy and the serving is good for four people. I'd recommend this to everyone, especially to the working people who want good food within their budget."

This is a very nice Chinese restaurant. I would recommend the seaweed with century egg and the steamed fish fillet with garlic. Prices are cheap and affordable."
- Joycesy16, Source Link
I appreciated how the servers pampered us with fast service that food and drinks kept flowing in that night."

Executive produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, E-Ring was a military drama set in the E-Ring, or the outer ring, of the Pentagon. Major James "JT" Tisnewski (Benjamin Bratt), a veteran Special Forces operator, is plucked from the field and given a desk job as part of the Special Operations Division of the E-Ring, responsible for the planning and deployment of covert US special operations worldwide. With his superior Colonel Eli McNulty (Dennis Hopper) he struggles to navigate the bureaucracy of the Pentagon in order to gain approval from the Joint Chiefs of Staff for numerous controversial missions around the globe, from rescuing American agents in China to battling insurgencies in Southeast Asia (and at home).The show struggled from the onset, due to being pitted up against hit shows such as American Idol, Criminal Minds and LOST. It was eventually canceled after 22 episodes were filmed.

Designed especially for walk-in showers, this Straight Shower Curtain Rod is an upgrade from less durable rods that are likely to corrode. Made of quality brass for a lasting addition to your bathroom, this shower rod comes with all the hardware necessary for installation, including wall anchors, flanges and screws.
Ships in 2 Business Days
Straight Shower Curtain RodSurpassed my expectations. Excellent quality and heavy duty. Not like those cheap Home Depot and ACE Hardware rods that rust and have light weight flanges. Couldn't be better. Great product and an excellent company to deal with. Fast shipping.

Photography Feature - Various styles These are some of my recent favourites over the last few months. Enjoy! Feel free to give these works some faves and comments!
I haven't done a feature in a while. I know this one isn't as well organized as my last one was, and my membership expired so I can't use a pretty journal skin, but that shouldn't have any effect on how beautiful these works are!

Under appreciated photography featureSo recently I started a forum asking for deviants to post their under appreciated photography. My criteria for "under appreciated" was a photo that has been on deviantART for at least 1 week and received less than 75 favourites. To make it fair for everyone who posted on the forum, I decided to feature a maximum of 3 works per deviant, even if they posted more than 3 thumbs. I also found some other works in addition to the ones in the forum.
Hope you all enjoy these works and give them some love!

Voting in the top 20 for theme TravelsHello my kind watchers!
Wow, this month I submitted my photos in the group :iconthefavouriteshowcase: for their August theme folder "Travels" and two of my photos have made it to the top 20 most voted deviations! I am so excited that I made it to the final round!
So you can find the blog here: And vote for your 3 favourite works! Please remember to pick 3 otherwise your vote won't count.
I would really appreciate some votes towards my works. You don't have to, but it would be nice! They are number 7 and number 11. But anyways, if they aren't your favourite images feel free to vote for other people!
And finally, I apologize for not being very active on here; I've been busy getting ready to move halfway across the country to begin university. Hopefully I'll get some new photos up when I have time
My deviantART StoryI joined deviantART 2 and a half years ago. Why and how I stumbled upon this site, I don't remember.
I saw the "join deviantART for free" button and clicked on it, since anything that is free appeals to me
I truly loved the online community and the feedback I got from artists around the world. It is nice to get constructive comments from people outside my little circle of friends.
When I first started, I really didn't know what type of photography I was interested in. But after looking at other people's galleries and experimenting with different styles on my own time, I have discovered that I am most interested in still life, macro and landscape photography.
One of my biggest inspirations on this site has been Kara-a. Her works are stunning and showed me that I don't need to purchase a bunch of expensive camera equipment to take cool photos. I learned about what close-up filters are and made a purchase so I could take macro photos without making the expensive purchase of a macr

The last 'begging for help' journal and...
If you remember my last journals you know that I'm participating in a calendar photo contest in Kellenhusen, the village where we spent our summer holidays 2012. I told you that I took so many photos last year that I decided to submit one photo each month until autumn. A big "thank you" to all of you who voted for my picutres in the last months! (In October I reached place #5, to have the chance of being chosen as a calendar motif you have to be among the top 3) I think that this month once again my photo has no big chance to rank at the top because some photographers are obviously members of big internet communities (you know what I mean) and begged all their "friends" to vote for their photos. Anyway, if you don't mind to play that voting-game one last time and if you want to support me, the voting period goes until November 30, and everyone is allowed to vote.
Voting is quite easy:

Probably my last feature for a while...Hi guys and gals and everyone else that can read this!
To my watchers: I hope that you have found many great artists unknown by my features and that you have enjoyed watching them.
I certainly did! The features were chosen from my deviantWATCH messages so basically every feature had been a part of my inbox! I follow a few groups and a lot of artists so if I don't get online for a couple of days it takes me hours to clear my inbox again. Usually I just pushed the x in the corner and look at the bigger picture if the thumbs I saw appealed to me and that is basically how I did my features. When I saw many pictures of the same theme: that would be the theme of my next feature.
Anyways this time the theme of my feature is squared pictures!

Yesterday I did my last exam and I am finally freeeee! I wanted to thank you for all the sweet wishes, because they worked: everything - well, almost everything, but it's okay - went well. I only have to wait for the results, now.
I'm looking forward to using my camera again, because unfortunately I've left it all alone during this hard period. In the meantime, let's enjoy some wonderful pictures!

Low Water Pressure Creates Restrictions
By David Scruggs and Lynne Bumpus-Hooper of The Sentinel Staff
April 30, 1986
About 1,000 pupils at Lockmar Elementary School ate sandwiches Tuesday instead of hot meals prepared with water, and they drank water from coolers rather than fountains.The problem is low water pressure and the worst problems are in Palm Bay and Titusville, where water plant capacities have been exceeded by heavy lawn watering. Officials in both cities declared emergency restrictions on water use Tuesday.''We cannot flush the toilets at all,'' said Lockmar Assistant Principal Norma Schutte.
Get the hose you need
By Mike McClintock, Special to Tribune Newspapers
September 7, 2012
Every house needs at least one hose: to wash the car, water the garden and feed the pressure washer, among other jobs. They come in all shapes and sizes, including some that leak on purpose to spread water gradually, and others that attach to downspouts and roll out to drain water away from the house when it rains. Capacity It's determined by pressure (about 50 pounds per square inch in most homes), the length of the hose and its diameter. The least expensive are often 1/2-inch and carry about 9 gallons per minute.
Indiana Residents Dealing With Low Water Pressure
June 21, 1992

Utility told to fix reclaimed-water supply problems
May 3, 2006
OVIEDO -- A private utility that provides reclaimed water to about 1,000 Oviedo households is being asked to quit signing up new customers until it can address supply problems. Residents of the city's Live Oak subdivision have complained about low water pressure or no water from Alafaya Utilities Inc.'s reclaimed system. Officials with the utility told the Oviedo City Council on Monday they are trying to address the problem by increasing production and adding a storage tank next year.
Longwood, Builder Agree To Fix Low Water Pressure
By Terry Osinski of The Sentinel Staff
October 24, 1985
Sharing the blame for low water pressure in the Harbour Isles subdivision, the city and Ryan Homes have agreed to split the estimated $30,000 repair bill.Taps into the subdivision's water main were not drilled deep enough, causing low water volume in most of the 36 new homes built within the last year.At Monday's commission meeting, Mayor Harvey Smerilson said the developer and city were at fault -- the city for accepting the improvements and Ryan Homes for building and selling the homes without first checking water pressure.
Water Woes Pressure Some Lake Residents
By Linda Florea sentinel correspondent
June 20, 1998
MINNEOLA - A warning to boil water in the Meadowbrook subdivision because of low water pressure has homeowners on edge.Residents of the subdivision and surrounding communities say low water pressure is nothing new to the area.On Friday, notices were mailed to city residents urging water conservation and outlining a new ordinance limiting irrigation, Mayor James Spalding said.``We feel it is a joke when they issue a water restriction when we don't get water anyway,'' said Karen Dewar, who moved into Meadowbrook 15 months ago.During an emergency City Council meeting Thursday night, which was standing room only, residents vented about the lack of water pressure and what they called a lack of action by the city to correct the problem.

By Linda Florea sentinel correspondent
April 15, 1999
MINNEOLA - Residents told council members Tuesday they are afraid of a water shortage like last year's, and they want the city to prevent the problem before it gets critical.Resident Karen Dewar, who has lived in Meadow Brook for the past two years, said she has noticed a drop in water pressure during the past three weeks and she is afraid it heralds a repeat of last summer's problems.Last year, residents of the subdivision had such low water pressure that they could not shower, and the Department of Environmental Protection ordered people to boil their water for three months.
Leaky Toilets Get Blame For Water Troubles At Ucf
By Joni James of The Sentinel Staff
January 8, 1999
To bad they couldn't just jiggle the handle.After searching nearly 12 hours Wednesday night and early Thursday for a water main break thought responsible for low water pressure across the University of Central Florida campus, workers discovered the culprit was actually a legion of leaky toilets.Officials think nearly one-fourth of about 800 urinals and toilets on the east Orange County campus stopped working properly Wednesday afternoon when a campus-wide power surge knocked out water pumps.

December 30, 1988

May 21, 1999

Residents Should Boil Water
February 15, 2001
LEESBURG -- The city is advising customers in the vicinity of Lake-Sumter Community College who temporarily were without water service Wednesday to boil their water as a precaution. Officials say contractors working on campus knocked over a fire hydrant, forcing the main valve to be shut off for repairs.

The incident occurred around 2 p.m. The boil-water notice is in effect for 48 hours.

May 23, 2000
DAYTONA BEACH - A small explosion and fire at a Daytona Beach water-treatment plant Monday temporarily shut down the water pumping system that serves 120,000 people. The pumping system at the Ralph Brennan Water Treatment Plant was down for more than an hour, causing low water pressure for several businesses and residences.

Panel Gives Water Plant At Swamp The Go-ahead
May 4, 2000
TAVARES - A water tower and treatment plant should be allowed to be built near the Green Swamp, a majority of Lake County Planning and Zoning officials voted Wednesday. The 5-2 vote to change the zoning at the proposed project site on the vacant land at County Roads 561 and 565B is not binding, only an official advisement. Nevertheless, after the vote, foes of the proposal pelted the volunteer advisory panel with insults and cries of frustration. Lake County commissioners are scheduled to decide the issue May 23. Lake Utility Service Inc. says the project is needed because thousands of its customers in the area often have low water pressure.
Lake Mary To Build Elevated Water Tower
By Will Wellons of The Sentinel Staff
February 6, 2000
LAKE MARY - Worries of low water pressure in the Lake Emma area of Lake Mary could soon be a thing of the past. The city is pushing forward with plans to build an elevated water tank off Lake Emma Road. Public Works Director Rick Diaz said construction of the 1million-gallon tank will begin in April or May and is expected to be completed by the end of the year. The tank's $740,000 cost will be paid with money from the city's utility fund. With growth continuing to tax Lake Mary's water system, the storage tank is a big insurance policy.

Saving Water Is Crucial
May 2, 1999
Death and taxes used to be the only sure things. Add another sure thing to the list: Water restrictions. Water restrictions have become a permanent part of the Central Florida lifestyle. A year-round ban on outdoor watering between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. has been the rule, properly put into place by the St. Johns Water Management District.Sometimes conditions, such as the drought that turned the state brittle last summer, require even tougher restrictions. Those restrictions may come from the water management district or they may come from the county or city where you live.

By Linda Florea Sentinel Correspondent
April 29, 1999
MINNEOLA - The city's new deputy to the mayor said he took the job more out of civic pride than as a career move.Sylvester H. Julien said he applied for the $40,000-a-year job after reading about Minneola's water and sewer problems.``I've always felt it's better trying to help in government,'' he said. ``You reach so many more people in small communities. ... It was right in my back yard, and I thought I would try to help.''Commenting on the task before him, Julien said: ``There's so much to do, it's like starting over.

Perch & Play
By Sam Boykin | Photography by Courtesy of Primland
Posted: Monday, Jun. 09, 2014
Primland is a mountain resort tucked among the rolling hills and quiet countryside in Meadows of Dan, Va. During the six-mile drive from the front gate to the modern, European-style lodge, youre likely to encounter deer and wild turkeys roaming the resorts 12,000 pastoral acres. But dont let the serene surroundings fool you. While Primland is a bucolic get-away-from-it-all destination, it also boasts dozens of fun outdoor adventures. And when youre ready for some down time, there are plenty of indulgent amenities to enjoy as well.
The 72,000-square-foot, cedar and stone Lodge at Primland, which opened in 2009, is perched atop a hill and provides sweeping views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Stylish and sophisticated, the lodge has 26 spacious rooms, two restaurants (one casual and one fine-dining), a spa, fitness center, game room, private theatre, and expansive back deck overlooking the golf course. Its ideal for guests seeking upscale comfort and convenience. And dont miss the regular wine tastings in the Lodges Great Hall, which has soaring ceilings and twin fireplaces.
Other lodging options include the elegant Fairway Cottages. Situated along the golf course, the cottages have cathedral ceilings, hardwood floors, stone fireplaces, and private decks. For something more rustic and private, there are a variety of mountain homes from which to choose. All of them have kitchens, multiple bedrooms, and, best of all, spectacular views of the mountains.
For a romantic getaway, consider one of the studio-sized Tree Houses, with private decks, king bed, spacious tub, and cozy design touches like red cedar exterior wall paneling and white oak flooring.
As nice as the accommodations are at Primland, chances are you wont be spending too much time indoors with so many fun activities. One of the biggest draws here is the golf course, which everyone from Travel and Leisure Golf to Golf Digest has praised as one of the best in the country. Designed by famed golf architect Donald Steel, the Highland Course makes the most of its stunning mountain landscape, with breathtaking scenery of ridge tops, valleys, and the Dan River Gorge. Also taking advantage of Primlands scenic surroundings is the 4,462-foot disc golf course, which winds through hardwood forests and rolling hills.
For something a little more adventurous, climb behind the wheel of an ATV and explore the rugged wilds of the property. Accompanied by a guide, you can zoom down old logging roads and power up hills and over rocks and stumps as you marvel at the view from some 3,000 feet. If you prefer two wheels to four, rent a top-of-the-line mountain bike and navigate miles of twisting, turning trails.
There is also a vast and varied network of hiking trails, ranging from Pinnacle, a moderate 1.3-mile loop along the golf course, to a restored, 11-mile section off the Old Appalachian Trail. GEO-cachinga high-tech treasure hunt during which you use a GPS device to locate hidden canistersis available on several nature trails.
For many years French businessman Didier Primat, Primlands founder, ran the property as a hunting preserve, and the sport remains a popular activity here. With hunting guides and dogs available, guests can hunt for deer, pheasant, and wild turkey. Theres also a challenging, 14-station, mile-long clay decoy shooting course, where you can sharpen your shooting skills.
If fishing is more your style, a remote six-mile section of the Dan River runs along the southern edge of Primland, and is a prime spot for catching trout. There are three ponds on the property as well, all stocked with everything from trout to catfish. Rental equipment and guided fly-fishing trips are available. If you wish, you can even have your days catch cleaned and prepared for dinner.
Another not-to-be-missed experience at Primland, especially during the summer, is a guided kayaking trip on the scenic Talbott Reservoir. Part of the Dan River Gorge, the Talbott Reservoir is at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains at about 2,600 feet. The quiet and secluded waterway is a haven for wildlife such as otters, beavers, and waterfowl.
After a busy day spent playing outdoors, head straight to Primlands tranquil spa for a rejuvenating massage, body treatment, or facial. The 8,134-square-foot spa also features a fitness center, yoga and Pilates studio, soothing, chlorine-free indoor pool, sauna, and Jacuzzi.
To cap off the evening, visit Primlands observatory dome at the lodge. Here you can look into a high-powered telescope for a glimpse at the night sky, a view made all the more spectacular given youre perched atop a mountain.

International food marketer AJC International is using technology from JPMorgan Chase Vastera's new Restricted Party Screening and Resolution Services to help improve trade compliance, eliminate staff research time, and keep its complex global supply chain in motion.
Outsourcing trade compliance allows AJC to focus on food transportation while JPMorgan Chase Vastera reviews customers' and suppliers' names and addresses against more than 50 continuously changing international lists. Parties or entities that various governments have deemed irresponsible traders or a threat to national security are prohibited from exchanging goods or services. The RPS screening system highlights positive matches, identifying which lists the matches are against, outlining the legal requirements associated with each particular list, and recommending immediate compliance steps. Resolution rationale for all screened names is documented and retained for audit trail reference.
"Due to our high volume global operations, and the fact that we are doing business in 'risky' regions of the world, it was important that AJC focus on corporate compliance," said Jerry Allison, Chief Executive Officer, AJC International.

The Brumbies moved to the top of the Australian conference table after battling to a 25-15 victory over the Stormers in Canberra.
The Stormers, who are yet to win on their Australasian tour, were left to rue a poor goal-kicking from their fly-half Peter Grant - he squandered eight points via two penalties and a conversion - proved costly.
After missing an early three-pointer, Grant succeeded with a penalty in the seventh minute but the home side struck back with a well-executed try from Robbie Coleman three minutes later.
The Stormers' defence was caught flat-footed thanks to several decoy runners before Matt Toomua ghosted through a gap in the visitors' back-line. Toomua still had work to do and drew in a defender before getting his pass away to Coleman, who was rewarded with the try in the right-hand corner after coming off the opposite wing.
Nic White landed a difficult place-kick from up against the touchline which gave the Brumbies a 7-3 lead after 10 minutes.
Sin bin
For the next 10 minutes there were several attacking forays from the Stormers and they were eventually rewarded in the 20th minute when, after initially setting up a ruck close to the Brumbies try-line after a line-out, Duane Vermeulen got the five-pointer after bursting through two tackles.
Grant added the extras but two penalties from White - in the 33rd and 39th minutes - gave the Brumbies a 13-10 lead at the break.
Earlier, the Stormers were reduced to 14 men when Tiaan Liebenberg was sent to the sin bin in the 30th minute for a tip tackle on Ben Mowen.
The game opened up in bizarre fashion in the 63rd minute when Coleman was the beneficiary of a poor error in judgement from Kobus van Wyk. While fielding a ball close to his try-line, the young Stormers wing opted to shepherd the ball into touch but to his surprise, Coleman gathered the bouncing ball and dotted down.
White failed to with the conversion but with the Brumbies leading 18-10, and time running out on the clock the Stormers became more daring on attack.
Their efforts were rewarded in the 75th minute when Juan de Jongh crashed over after slipping past two defenders. Grant had an opportunity to cut the deficit to a single point but missed with his conversion attempt.
This followed shortly after he struck an upright when the Stormers were awarded a penalty and instead of holding a 20-18 lead, the visitors were still trailing by three points.
They didn't get close to adding to their tally, however, and were cruelly denied a bonus point when referee Glen Jackson awarded a penalty try to the hosts after the Stormers' scrum buckled under pressure on their five-metre line.

The Cabinet of Dr. Ramirez
Description: Flamboyant Broadway renaissance man Peter Sellars was the director of The Cabinet of Dr. Ramirez. This freewheeling musical horror spoof isn't meant to be taken seriously, so don't be fooled by those Karloffian trappings. Ron Vawter plays the title character for all it's worth. He has to, with such formidable competition as Joan Cusack, Mikhail Baryshnikov and Werner Klemperer, the latter cast as Fat Man Searching for a Tax Break. There's also a Beaver Gourmet in the cast of characters, which should clue you in as to the level of subtlety here.~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

stream computingA high-performance computer system that analyzes multiple data streams from many sources live. The word stream in stream computing is used to mean pulling in streams of data, processing the data and streaming it back out as a single flow. Stream computing uses software algorithms that analyzes the data in real time as it streams in to increase speed and accuracy when dealing with data handling and analysis.
In June 2007, IBM announced its stream computing system, called System S. This system runs on 800 microprocessors and the System S software enables software applications to split up tasks and then reassemble the data into an answer. ATI Technologies also announced a stream computing technology that describes its technology that enables the graphics processors (GPUs) to work in conjunction with high-performance, low-latency CPUs to solve complex computational problems. ATI's stream computing technology is derived from a class of applications that run on the GPU instead of a CPU.

Today my sister (visiting from California) & I took a brisk walk from my home all the way to Evanston, about 5 miles. Our destination was Barnes & Noble, so that I could get a copy of The Spark using the coupon we had been provided. It went perfectly! We made it in a little over an hour, & when we entered The Spark was at the top of a display right in front of the door--couldn't miss it.
Also my stability ball & Leslie Sansone video arrived today. I'm all set for the bootcamp!
Best wishes with all your resolutions & dreams for this year!
I have joined the official January bootcamp--& I ordered a stability ball (which my physical therapist highly recommends for ongoing shoulder & upper-back exercises, & which I also need for bootcamp exercises) & a Leslie Sansone DVD (so I can do vigorous indoor walking this winter).
My weight is higher than it has ever been except when I was pregnant many years ago. The shock of that number is a needed kick in the butt for me, as in the winter I look pretty good in my clothes (summer is another story) so if I'm paying attention only to the mirror when I'm fully dressed I might continue drifting. Sleep seems to have evened out again; getting back into a regular cardio routine should help me maintain it. (Thanks for your book recommendation, Claudia--I'll probably order it from the library soon.)
Now I have just gone to my notification page & turned off notifications of new topics in the bootcamp message board, as people are ignoring Coach Nancy's repeated requests not to start new topics for self-introductions. I guess everyone is too excited to pay attention.
Bootcamp starts January 3! My new fitness stuff should arrive before then. I'll be READY!
High-fructose corn syrup really is nasty stuff:
And some fun news for me: one of my poems is going to be posted on the sides of buses in a suburb north of Chicago throughout September 2010! Isn't that cool?
My main struggle with physical life these days continues to be insomnia. It's not constant, but it is recurring much more often than it used to. There are some issues medicine can't solve . . .
It was hard. My daughter-in-law lost the baby at 9 weeks (actually the doctors said he/she had died at 7 wks), which made us all very sad. I took a personal day to spend with my son & daughter-in-law while her body was in the process of expelling the fetus. It was a precious, low-key day. When the expulsion actually happened a couple of days later, they were able to identify the placenta & tiny fetus, & they buried it next to a peace lily, with prayers & scripture.
I'm so proud of them for knowing how to take care of themselves pastorally in the midst of the pain.
There have been other hard things; my husband is STILL without work & is having anger issues. I have to pray a lot & stay vigilant: if he gets abusive I'm outta there. I hope, hope, hope it won't come to that.
Shoulder news: I'm nearing the end of PT & it has made an AMAZING difference. Happily, I was scheduled again with the same PT assistant I worked with after my fall on the ice last winter/spring. She's really good. I have nearly my whole range of motion back in that shoulder, & my shoulder, upper arm, & back muscles have gotten much stronger.
I will need to keep doing the exercises as close to every day as possible until I have 3 weeks pain free. Am getting close to that, as now I generally have only a bit of residual pain. After that pain-free spell, I will keep the exercises permanently as part of my upper-body routine 2-3 days a week.
Still working on my poems & manuscript, & gathering info about various small presses that might be interested in publishing them as a book. That is one of the most rewarding parts of my life.
I just had a wonderful lunch (homemade baked beans, baby carrots, two clementines) & am optimistic about getting into the groove of the "No S" system. We'll see how it goes . . .
"Mnemonic" meaning something like "easy to remember because of its sound" . . . From a 43Things user I just happened onto nosdiet.com/
The "No S Diet": basically it's no snacks, no sugary foods, & no seconds, except (sometimes) on S days (Sat. & Sun. + "special days"--family birthdays & holidays)! Isn't that brilliant?
Of course "no snacks" contradicts what we're frequently advised here at SP (2-3 healthy snacks a day, or 6 small meals). But it's consonant with what my husband's doctor has urged on him, & with my own experience. If I'm snacking between meals, I nearly always end up eating more. I don't have blood sugar issues that would require me to snack, so it makes sense to just (for the most part) cut them out.
I really, really don't want to go back to food tracking, because it takes SO much time, especially now that we are cooking new, from-scratch foods at home a lot. Going by a simple, easily rememberable rule of thumb like this is much more doable.
Oh, & the No-S system does involve exercise. Read about it at the link if you're interested. The guy is hilarious, & he makes a lot of (common) sense.
I'm going to post separately about my life in general. Briefly!

NC DOT Looking at Tolling I-95
State transportation officials are looking at ways of raising revenue to modernize Interstate 95. One thing they're looking at is tolling the highway. That's being considered up and down the coast. Greer Beaty with the Department of Transportation says a large-scale study of I-95 started early last year. She says there are a number of things to consider.
Greer Beaty: "If we were going to toll, where would we toll? How would we toll? What kind of money could be generated? But, we need to do that in conjunction with what improvements need to be made, and how much do they cost?"
Beaty says I-95 has never really had a major renovation. It's the deadliest highway in North Carolina. She says they'll probably have public hearings in February.
Beaty: "We'll let people see the data, let em respond to it. Hear what we say well this is how much it'll cost to modernize all of 95, and if we use tolling as a tool, we can do it in this time frame. It'll cost this much. If we don't use tolling, it'll cost this much and it'll take us this long. All of those things are going to be put back out to the public."
Beaty says it'll be several years at the earliest before they implement tolling if that's what they decide to do.
You can find more information about plans for I-95 here.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

The Gloucester High School sophomore whose request to use boys' bathrooms led to a policy limiting the facilities available to transgender students is challenging the restriction with a federal civil rights complaint.
The Gloucester High School sophomore whose request to use boys' bathrooms led to a policy limiting the facilities available to transgender students is challenging the restriction with a federal civil rights complaint.
Here are a listing of the government and school closings for the Christmas and New Year's holidays:
The Gloucester County Board of Supervisors will hold a "strategic planning retreat" to kick off the New Year.
Clem and Keith Horsely of Gloucester were recently honored by Governor Terry McAuliffe as the first Virginians to implement an agricultural resource management plan under a newly created program.
Gloucester County was one of three Virginia communities to receive up to $100,000 for small business development, Gov. Terry McAuliffe announced earlier this month.
The winners for the 2014 Gloucester County parade have been announced. According to Carol Steele, director of Parks, Recreation, and Tourism, the winners include:
U.S. Rep. Robert C. "Bobby" Scott, D-Newport News, issued a statement Monday in response to recent police killings.
A 41-year-old cab driver was arrested on grand larceny charges last week after she was accused of stealing from her customer, a police spokesman said.
A 21-year-old homeless man was arrested Monday on rape and other charges in connection with an incident involving a Denbigh woman over the weekend, according to police department news release.
NEWPORT NEWS - A 13-year-old boy was shot in the leg at 20th Street and Madison Avenue, in Newport News Sunday, said Newport News Police Department spokesman Lou Thurston.
York County budgeted $1,500 for software programming charges this year.
Poquoson budgeted $3,665 this year for computer software upgrades for its garage, which maintains all of the city's and public schools' vehicles.
Before an informal request to dredge Lambs Creek even makes it to the Board of Supervisors, it is already dividing residents along the creek that separates York County and Poquoson.
There are 222 people on the county's payroll, from elected officials to sheriff's deputies, the county treasurer to maintenance staff. Isle of Wight has budgeted $9,892,328 to pay them over this fiscal year.
The Hampton Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc. bought a coat for every student at Cary Elementary School recently, presenting 391 coats at a school assembly, according to Hampton City Schools officials.
NEWPORT NEWS — Jesse L. Matthew Jr., who was charged with abduction with intent to defile in the September disappearance of University of Virginia student Hannah Graham and a 2005 sexual assault in Fairfax County, had a local tie.
Hampton police are trying to figure out who stole computing equipment from five schools earlier this month.
Virginia's ambitions to become a major hub for the commercial space industry took a hit in October, when an Antares rocket boosting a cargo spacecraft to the International Space Station exploded seconds after lift-off at the state-owned Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport (MARS).
Engineers at NASA Langley Research Center will have to wait a bit longer to find out if their robotic system will be chosen for the Asteroid Redirect Mission (ARM), planned as a proving ground for technologies needed to send astronauts to Mars.
The $1.1 trillion spending bill that just cleared Congress includes millions of dollars toward advanced aircraft, a cleaner Chesapeake Bay, stiffer standards for oil tank cars and repairs to the state's spaceport damaged by a rocket explosion in October.
Or at least we know to respect a bear's authority.
