Kelly Ripa Reminisces With 1996 Wedding Photo
May 03, 2013 02:00 PM by Donna W. Martin
Next Great Baker guest star, Kelly Ripa, and husband Mark Consuelos celebrated their 17-year wedding anniversary on Wednesday, May 1. And to mark the occasion, she reminisced by posting a 1996 wedding on Twitter. Keep reading for more details.
According to omg!, Kelly and Mark were co-stars on "All My Children" in 1996. They were young and in love and one week, they discovered they had a Wednesday and a Thursday off work so they threw caution to the wind and headed to Las Vegas where they tied the knot!
Just last year, Kelly revealed she and Mark were never engaged. They were dating and simply saw an opportunity and seized it. And unlike many spontaneous Vegas marriages that crumble and fall apart sometime later, for them, it just happened to work out and they've been together ever since.
On the day of their wedding anniversary, they both took to Twitter to exchange sweet messages. "Happy 17th anniversary to my boo @KellyRipa," Mark wrote. And Kelly was quick to respond by posting a photo of their 1996 Vegas wedding along with the caption, "I love you @MarkConsuelos happy anniversary! 17 years feels like 17 days."
But those 17 years haven't been without incident. In a recent interview with People, Kelly detailed her biggest pet peeve about Mark. "I am openly hostile when Mark leaves the toilet seat up," she said, "[he] never puts the toilet seat back down and it irritates me…we still fight about it." Typical man, right?
Toilet seat aside, Kelly dearly loves Mark and said he's the person she was meant to be with forever and he feels the same way about her too.
Kelly and Mark live in New York City with their three children, Michael, 15, Lola, 11, and Joaquin, 10.
What do you think of Kelly and Mark's 1996 wedding photo? Do you think they've changed much? We know you have an opinion and we want to hear it so sound off in the comments and let us know.

New Signing
We have, this afternoon, completed the signing of Keeper Alan Combe, who will be available for this evenings match at Dingwall.
Manager Allan Moore said "I am delighted to have secured an experienced Keeper in the form of Alan Combe. We know we have a very tough 10 days ahead of us, and we hope that Alan will be able to help us achieve the points we need. I'm sure that his organisation skills will be of benefit."
Moore added "Colin Stewart has been playing on with a broken toe, which is far from ideal, and it would be unfair to pitch young Matt McGinley into the thick of things. We are fortunate that the Chairman has agreed to us bringing in an extra player at this stage of the season.

I sat down and spoke with Royce White before last night's YMCA CCL competition. In this CF exclusive, Royce and I discuss everything from his doubters to Italy to the 2011-12 season. Enjoy.

great interview. keep up the good work.
Awesome stuff. Can't get enough of this.
Practice for Italy starts next week....Where is all this time going?

Bring us home that title royce!
The word "enigmatic" was created to describe Royce.
I will admit I was not pleased when we picked up Royce. I'm happy to eat my words...dude has been a model citizen from all accounts, in the classroom and on the court.
I hope he tears up the conference.
Forever trying to find a cure for the Dunning-Kruger Effect.

Thank you to Kagavi & amestoplease for the sweet designs!
I have always felt that this years team could repeat whats TF's team of transfers did. After reading what Royce had to say, I think I might be right. Royce is gonna be Willoughby v2.0. Not in the "what they do on the court" way, but the attitude & leadership. If you read the rivals article that interviews all the players on the 95-97 teams I think you will agree.
CycloneReport.com - Reflecting on 1995-97 ISU hoops
That rug really tied the room together, did it not dude?
Follow me unplugged on twitter @fatkid1974
I want to win a championship. An NCAA championship. I want to do that. My senior year in high school, my goal was to go undefeated. We did it. From that, I think that when I set my mind to something and with my teammates, if we all buy into what the coaches put forth, we can do anything. Teams like VCU prove it.
I really like this quote.
You guys can call me crazy. I'm not saying ti will happen but IMO we have all the tools to win the conference. Will it happen? Who knows, probably not but we have guys that can handle the ball (Allen, McGee, Sledge, Bubu, even Law handles it alright), we have shooters all over (Allen, McGee, Scotty, Babb, even Booker and White have decent range for post players), We have athletes(Ejim, Booker, Allen, Sledge, White). The one thing missing would be a dominant low post player and that may not even be needed with the type of team we have. I'm not worried about rebounding. If these guys gel and do what their skills are capable of doing, it could be a special year.
This is very important:
2014-15 KenPom AdjO (rating)
116.3 (11)
2015-16 KenPom AdjO (rating
120.7 (3)
I agree, we have the tools to win any/every game this year. BUT, the problem is they haven't proven they can play as a team. Maybe the big four all playing together last year on the scout team will be a big boost. It is their first year "together", but it really isn't their first year together for the most part. The next year we could be real special, but I trust Fred will at least have us contending this year. Even if we end up just sneaking into the tournament.. we could end up being real dangerous in there.
The Italy trip should be a nice little jumpstart for our team also.
Did the front page list White as a Junior? He is a soph, correct?
The more I hear our guys talk about this upcoming season the more optimistic I am. You know that Allen and Christohperson want to win because this is their last year. The other transfers and Royce have something to prove and they all seem to get along well. I think the Italy trip will be huge because instead of using early season games to figure out how to play together, they can do that in Italy and at the start of the season they can hit the ground running.
This season is going to be fun.

Haha good one! Hopefully not TOO vicariously though!
Looks like Fred made a great decision on this kid. He will do very well this year. His talent was certainly never a question. Looks like now he has the attitude to go with the talent. Like Hubbard on our team, it sometimes takes a big event to get some ones attention

Tackling software security in the development phase
Last week in this space I questioned the need for greater government intrusion into private computer networks in the name of cybersecurity, when so little seems to be taking place to fix one of the biggest security culprits: insecure software. This week, I am pleasantly surprised to report on an important first step the government has taken to address that very culprit.
The Federal Trade Commission announced a settlement with HTC America Friday requiring the company to develop patches for software vulnerabilities in millions of smartphones and tablets it sold. More importantly, HTC America has to come up with a program to tackle security risks during the product development phase. And, for the next 20 years, it has to submit to an independent security assessment every other year. The company, whose parent headquarters are in Taiwan, agreed to these burdens to settle charges that it did not take reasonable steps to secure its software and, in fact, introduced flaws that put sensitive data at risk. The settlement did not include a fine or other monetary penalty.
The FTC's complaint charged HTC America with not giving its engineers adequate security training, not testing software for potential security flaws, not adhering to widely accepted coding practices, not having a process for addressing reports of vulnerabilities and other security failures. The commission found numerous vulnerabilities in HTC devices, including a coding flaw that allowed unauthorized access to logging apps, and one that let third-party apps get around Android's security model. Malicious apps had the potential to record audio from a device, send text messages to it and download other malware without the user's awareness.
The commission seemed to be particularly displeased about the user manual for HTC Android devices and the user interface for its Tell HTC app, both of which it called deceptive. The security flaws in HTC Android devices, in both cases, thwarted the very consent processes designed to protect sensitive data, the FTC complained.
HTC America didn't issue a public statement in conjunction with the settlement last week, but it did email this response to seemingly every news outlet that asked: "Privacy and security are important, and we are committed to improving practices that help safeguard our customers' devices and data. We're working to roll out the remaining software updates now and recommend customers download them once available."
What's most vital to me about the HTC America settlement is the requirement to deal with security risks from the outset when designing new devices. This is a sensible and far-sighted requirement. Unfortunately, HTC America is far from alone in its failure to bake security into product development. One can only hope that other vendors will be called to task as well. It wouldn't be fair--or especially useful--if HTC were singled out, even though its own particular failures were related to the disclosure of the secretive Carrier IQ logging software back in 2011. The existence of the controversial Carrier IQ program was made public when a security researcher demonstrated how it was logging keystrokes on his HTC Android device. While many manufacturers, including Motorola and Samsung, installed Carrier IQ on their devices--at the request of carriers, including AT&T (NYSE: T), Sprint (NYSE: S) and T-Mobile--HTC's vulnerabilities allowed third-party apps to access sensitive information, according to the FTC.
This is the first time the FTC has pursued a case centered on software security, and it says it is just one step in an ongoing initiative to get vendors to secure their offerings. While we await the next step, industry needs to boost its role here as well. Let me know what measures your company is taking to ensure the security of the software you purchase. - Caron

Reno, Nev.: View from the Atlantis Casino
Road Journals Blog—On the 15th floor of my room at the Atlantis Casino Resort Spa in Reno, Nevada, I woke to an underwhelming panoramic view. Reno spreads from its high-rise commercial core across a flatland called the Truckee Meadows. Once ranchlands and marshes, the meadows are now a grid of pavement, mini-malls, and blocks of 1920s bungalows and 1970s tract homes.
In the wintertime, which is when I visited, this high perspective, looking down on the colorless blocks and city sidewalks lined with scrawny bare tree trunks and limbs clawing upward toward the gray clouds wadded in the sky, is not Reno's best.
Summer is different. That's when deciduous trees still wear their leaves, and the spare hillsides display the sweet-smelling new growth of sage.
As I stood at the Atlantis window in my slippers, something glorious happened. A bolt of light angled through the clouds. It blasted such a white brightness onto the downtown casino towers that, blurred for a moment, they looked just like old bones upturned and planted in the middle of the city. The spooky scene put a buzz into me. From my high perch I suddenly wanted to hang-glide into the city center, or take a zip-line ride to the sunny Italian-themed Peppermill Casino down the street.
Meanwhile, 15 floors below, the casino clanged and beeped away, suffused in the fantastic aquatic glow created by blue and green lights. I passed rows of slot-machine hopefuls and walked outside at 9:15 a.m. to find the casino parking lot full.
I knew the dull sky would not affect my experience in Reno, as my day was planned around art and culture. I'd spend a few hours at the Nevada Museum of Art looking at favorite pieces by the likes of Danae Anderson and Phyllis Shafer in the museum's permanent collection, then browsing a provocative exhibit of images made by the Australian photographer John Reid, who spent 16 years documenting a mysterious hominoid creature he called "Fishman" in a cave high in the mountains of New South Wales.
Later at Stremmel Gallery I'd see an exhibit of abstract landscapes, then stroll the sprawling antique shops on South Virginia Street. Food adventures would fuel all of this. I'd have a ranch-style breakfast at Peg's Glorified Ham N Eggs, and a sophisticated lamb-shoulder lunch at the new Krumblz European pastry shop and deli.
Anticipating this sensual immersion, my pulse raced.
This blog post was first published in November 2011. Some facts may have aged gracelessly. Please call ahead to verify information.
It's true, the Atlantis view is much more interesting than the scene of this picture, especially after a dusting of snow, which we're getting right now in the mountains around Lake Tahoe nearby, and especially when the silvery Nevada light slashes through it, as I've described in the post. At night the glittery lights are fantastic. There's something kind of erie about the hint of an interior depicted in the photo above. In contrast, the Atlantis room I stayed in was very glam and state-of-the-art. It is difficult to find a picture that perfectly illustrates an unusual blog post.
You're right. It's a photo from Flickr of a winter scene looking on Reno from a hotel. I see on your Atlantis Web site that there are some fabulous views when the weather is good; however, all of them seem to be taken in non-winter months. If you have any winter shots of views from the Atlantis, I'd be happy to add them as a secondary photo.
This view is not from the Atlantis...this is smack in the middle of downtown Reno. Atlantis is right next to the convention center (a single story building) and a shopping mall. The views from the Atlantis towers are much more appetizing...on the south side you see the mountains...on the north you see the city lights and landscape.
Don't be fooled by the headline and this photo, they do not go together.

"My husband has gone from 255 to 185 in under 4 months.""My husband and I changed our lives this January. We stopped eating processed food, joined a local organic produce co-op, planted a garden, fruit trees and began eating high raw. Seldom do we eat cooked things (only Quinoa and sometimes an organic veggie pizza) We no longer consume dairy, no longer eat eggs, and only a few times have we had meat. Both of us have lost weight. My husband has gone from 255 to 185 in under 4 months. He no longer has acid reflux. He is able to sleep through the night. His blood cholesterol is better than normal now. He no longer has brain "fog". He no longer has that severe bloated look on his face. His blood sugar is normal. He longer has uncontrollable eating urges...and splurges! He said he feels balanced all day long. He said he's never felt this good and without Prilosec or pep pills. He drinks organic green smoothies every day, coconut water every day and local organic fresh produce."

"A couple of years ago he went totally raw and has NO allergies""I can tell you that my son, now 26, was plagued with serious allergies to almost everything. A couple of years ago he went totally raw and has NO allergies. It was very hard to get him to eat fruits and vegetables when he was young. Now he lectures me on the virtues of raw foods, because I am only about 80% raw, though nearly 100% organic (and have been for about 30 years). The video and all the electronic articles I receive are VERY well used by me and my family, and copies are sent home of select articles with my students. So, your work is getting to about 250 students and their families each year. THANK YOU for doing what all of you do at FoodMatters.tv!"

"In 2005 I spent over $3100 on prescription drugs and this last year 2007 I spent under $400."Your message is very true food does matter. Even more important what ever we put into our "bodies", defines who we are and how we feel. I have changed what I put into my during the past two years. Two years ago I could not walk across the street to get out mail today I can walk and not feel like I am going to fall. In 2005 I spent over $3100 on prescription drugs and this last year 2007 I spent under $400.

"I'm thrilled with the release of your film. Raw foods have changed our lives."Hello. I'm thrilled with the release of your film. Raw foods have changed our lives. My husband and I were not particularly overweight or disease stricken. But we were approaching our mid 40's and with the death of my parents, I was quite depressed and we both were beginning to feel sluggish for the first time in our lives. I was also suffering from insomnia pretty badly. My husband had always been into food preparation so we thought we ate very well. This style of 'eating well' meant home cooked meals that were full of wonderful flavors but also full of chicken, cheese, eggs, and of course... this was hurting us without us knowing it. We never used processed foods and didn't drink sodas. However, we did consume large amounts of organic coffee which wasn't helping us much. One day, my husband stumbled across a book on raw foods in the bookstore. At this time, we were not convinced. So we discussed the idea and went back to the store a few more times to look it over. After about a month, we got the book and after we both read it, we decided to try going 'raw' for 30 days. Well, that was 2.5 years ago. We are both 30 pounds lighter, our skin is radiant, we sleep like babies and all that sluggishness we were feeling and attributed to getting older is GONE! What I used to think was a normal amount of sneezing is also gone. There's all sorts of little things ... like allergies, candida, arthritis... these are all GONE! Of course, the depression and 'fog' I was under lifted and suddenly, I could think clearer than I had in decades. I have more energy than I did in my 20's which is astonishing considering I've been very athletic my whole life. Not only that, but our discovery has helped other people in our lives too. My niece is only 23 and was suffering from recurring kidney stones. In fact, she was suffering to the point that she even lost her job. As a pretty healthy, fit young lady, this was shocking. She remembered me talking about being raw and went out and got her own raw food books. After only a week of being raw, her kidney stone problems were gone and she was off the drugs the doctors were giving her. It's been 4 months for her now and she is kidney stone free. We ARE what we eat. It's so easy and so obvious. I only hope that everyone will change their lifestyle for better health. After all, what else is there?

"If it were left to the medical profession I would now be dead.""I have a strong testimony of life style changes. I nearly died in 1993 of Ulcerated Colitis and still suffer to this very day the ramifications of Prednisone. If it were left to the medical profession I would now be dead. I know how far off base the medical profession is. I watched my own daughter die of Leukemia at Walter Reed Army Medical Center treated by 7 different protocols of chemotherapy. If she had not been locked into the Army and so the Medical system they provide and had been armed with the correct information, the situation may have been very different."

"It's very easy to watch, the pace is perfect and the information easily absorbed.""I'm impressed with the production. It's very easy to watch, the pace is perfect and the information easily absorbed. It's a great introduction to the idea that the food supply may be the source of our health issues."
"I lost over 50 lbs and have never felt better.""I lost over 50 lbs and have never felt better. Combined with a regular exercise program, I made some major changes to my diet. First I started by cutting sodas out of my diet and just drank water. Next I eliminated all fried foods and started eating healthier choices. I had been prescribed Nexium for heart burn, but at 33 years old, I felt I was too young to be put on any medications. I took the pills for two months prior to my lifestyle change, and now that I have lost the weight and am eating healthier foods, I do not get heart burn anymore. In addition to my diet and exercise, I get adjusted by a chiropractor regularly, take some probiotics and EFA's, and drink some incredible products that help promote healthy cell regeneration and nutritional supplementation (aloe for my digestive tract and a greens supplement for extra vitamins and minerals in case I do not get enough in my daily diet). Now I get compliments just about every day on how great I look, and people ask me what I am doing to look so much younger (I feel I have stopped or even turned back my body age) and I tell them that it is mostly about having a positive attitude and making the right choices when choosing your meals - and drink lots of water! I also have not been sick for over 2 years! What is amazing to me is after you cut out the processed foods for a while, especially things with high fructose syrup in them, how easily you notice the processed and unnatural sweet taste in those foods. And what is even more incredible is how much money you save when eating more healthy - especially if you don't go out to eat at restaurants. My suggestion for everyone out there is to think for yourselves, stop watching TV (all the ads are promoting poor eating habits and even poking fun at men that "don't eat like a man"), get active and enjoy the life you have to the fullest - you only get one!"

"amazing job with the film not only technically but in a very scientific non-preachy way which is key to me""I think the documentary Food Matters is an extremely important step in the way nutrition and health care should be viewed...starting today. Please tell James and Laurentine that they did an amazing job with the film not only technically but in a very scientific non-preachy way which is key to me. I always teach now that organic and natural is not just for hippies anymore. It is for people that want to live well and long. And I can imagine that is everyone. I chose to start with baby food and hope people will stick with it throughout their lives. Again thanks, and I will be passing the film on to others."

"They've killed us with their food and medicine but they are yet to get our spirit!""Hi....loved the movie! My life is the living proof of all that your movie portrays. There are many of us parents living here in Sydney using the principles of "food matters" and biomedical intervention to cure our toxic children of ASD. Best wishes to you and continue to spread the word as I will be doing! They've killed us with their food and medicine but they are yet to get our spirit!"

"More than 6,000 hours of research has convinced me chronic illness is a modern scourge that can be reversed through healthy eating""A lifetime of athletics failed to keep me healthy. At 30, I became disabled. I was diagnosed with lupus after meeting 7 of 11 diagnostic criteria, and later with chronic viral mono. Bedridden for 4 years, I pursued western and alternative cures in vain. Finally I stumbled on a diet that made 80% of my symptoms vanish. As an MBA who had worked for 10 years in research and strategy at Fortune 500 companies, I was not satisfied with being lucky. I had to know why diet had helped me regain a normal life when most with lupus and chronic mono struggle with symptoms I used to have. More than 6,000 hours of research has convinced me chronic illness is a modern scourge that can be reversed through healthy eating and using prescription meds only as a last resort. Med Nauseum trolls the literature to bring you research and credible hypotheses about inconvenient cures for chronic illness. You just have to be sick enough of being sick to give them a try."

"Nothing preachy, just the facts. Good stuff!""For me, the 'Food Matters' video should be a cornerstone for any health and wellness library. It is essential information for everyone. I would like to see every middle and high school purchase a copy or two of 'Food Matters'. It should be played in every Biology class. 'Food Matters' makes learning about what health is what what is really healthy enjoyable. Nothing preachy, just the facts. Good stuff!"

"Once I learned about this video I have been telling friends and family about it. Thanks to people like you for getting the message out."
"I suffered from debilitating migraines. I had to try and plan my life around them as I would spend entire days in bed suffering. When I didn't have migraines I would sometimes have headaches that would go on for days. My PMS was terrible and I also have severe osteoarthritis and was experiencing pain which would wake me up at night. Then a year ago a nutritionist in my hometown hosted the first TPED (Save Your Life) meeting in Georgetown Ontario and I am so glad I attended. I began reading and researching the world of nutrition. I invested in a high powered blender, the best quality juicer and dehydrator and started eating healthier and using products such as Spirulina. I am happy to report that my pain has diminished greatly and not only are my migraines gone, but I don't even get headaches anymore and my PMS symptoms are much much better, practically gone. The bonus was I also lost some weight. I have an overall feeling of wellbeing, not just physically but mentally and also have so much more energy. My husband has incorporated some of these habits as well and now can't go a day without my morning smoothie concoctions as it gives him the energy he hasn't had for many years.Thank goodness for alternative medicine and nutrition. I became so inspired that I began school part time as a holistic nutritionist in hopes of helping others as well. Once I learned about this video I have been telling friends and family about it. Thanks to people like you for getting the message out."

"Great DVD... Now is the perfect time with the country making major changes.""I loved it! This is how I beat AIDS years ago along with getting off of almost all of medications now. I'm just on a sleep medication that will take awhile to detox from my system along with my RAW diet, meditation, exercise, living space and the power of the mind. Anyway, I'd love to own the DVD after watching it online Thanks, and again, great DVD. We need to have this information on TV, and in the movie theaters to educate others "consistently" and to get the RAW organic movement moving along even faster than it already is. Now is the perfect time with the country making major changes."

I have a son whom I have recovered from what society calls "autism" and I like to call vaccine injured children.

I have many links that I can send you if you are interested in learning about the GI impairment and neurological injuries that they are calling "autism". From what I have learned with my son is that through diet this condition can save so many innocent children if they get the help they need before the age of 3.

"I encourage anyone involved in this industry to get on board, join the revolution, and help to spread the word!""As an individual that is passionate about nutrition and the benefits of eating well I was delighted to hear of the production of the movie Food Matters. As a business operator in the field of nutrition and health I was overwhelmed at the opportunity the movie provided for me to educate my customers and the public to the benefits of good nutrition, as well as the problems associated with traditional medicine and the medical industry. To date we have been playing the movie trailer on a loop in our two stores for approximately 8 weeks. We have had a phenomenal response from our customers, who are captivated by what they see on the plasma screen, and many hundreds of them have purchased the movie as a result. This to me is the best result as many of these people take and send this movie to friends and family in an effort to spread the word and assist others to have a happier and healthier life through good food. I applaud James and Laurentine for their commitment to getting this message out, and I encourage anyone involved in this industry to get on board, join the revolution, and help to spread the word!"

"On the morning of the second day, I got up off the floor by myself."In 2004, I was disabled to the point of being unable to put on my own socks and underwear. My 4- and 8-year-old sons had to help me get dressed every day. For three months, my wife had to help me get off the floor in the morning, because I was unable to lie down in our bed. I couldn't drive, fly in a plane, or even sit in a chair. I had lost the ability to function normally. My condition was diagnosed as sciatica, which in my case was the result of a bulging disc in my lower back pressing on nearby nerves. This pressure inflamed the nerves. As a result, I experienced debilitating pain in my lower back, legs and feet. Bluntly speaking, I was disabled. During this time, two of the Cleveland area's finest neurologists performed a 'walletectomy' to the tune of $4,000, not counting money paid by my insurance company. They had hooked me to electrodes; they tapped, poked and prodded; they bathed me in X-rays and the magnetic fields of an MRI. They tried drugging me with Bextra, but two doses of that now-withdrawn COX-2 inhibitor made me violently ill. All this was nearly as expensive as it was painful. I faced the very real possibility of losing my career, my life savings and even the family home. "When these two doctors met with me for the last time, the taller of the two stood next to me, put his arm around my shoulder, and said, 'You're just going to have to learn to live with this condition.' So, that was it. The best minds in medicine decided I was hopeless, and I was just supposed to support a wife and two kids on whatever I could make standing up. By the time I hobbled to my wife's car and crawled across the back seat, I was genuinely angry. I left that clinic determined that there had to be a better way to regain my health than trust it to overpaid pill-pushers. Determined to find a way to heal, I searched the web for anything related to inflammation and how to cure it naturally. Quite by accident, I stumbled across www.doctoryourself.com, and began my education as a student of orthomolecular medicine. I learned how nutrition could be used to treat and cure an amazing array of diseases that make up the cash cows of modern medicine. Well, it all looked simple enough: drown the inflammation in vitamin C, and I might start to feel better. To be fair, I've never been the type of person to go into a program half-heartedly. I crawled back into the car and my wife took me to the health food store. For about $8, I bought an 8 ounce jar of ascorbic acid powder. We drove home, and using the Klenner protocol for vitamin C, I started on a regimen of 3 grams (just under 1 tsp) in a glass of water . . . 10 times a day, for a total of 30,000 mg daily. By the end of the first day, nothing had changed. On the morning of the second day, I got up off the floor by myself. It was difficult, but I did it. My back and legs still felt like there were ropes of pain burning inside my legs. On the morning of the third day, I dressed myself, socks and underwear included, and that night I slept in my own bed for the first time in months. The pain in my legs and back was still there, but not a constant irritant as before. On the morning of the fourth day, I was in a state of health. I dressed myself for outdoor work, grabbed the chain saw, and set to the task of cutting up a load of slab wood that I'd neglected for the last three months. When she heard the chain saw fire up, my wife came running out of the house. 'WHAT ARE YOU DOING?' she shouted above the rumbling saw in my hands. Shutting off the saw, I assured her that I was completely cured, had no pain, and couldn't wait to get back to work. Over the next two weeks, I continued the regimen, astonished at the amount of C that my body seemed willing to absorb. Eventually, I reached bowel tolerance, cut the regimen by 50% and continued to add other forms of supplementation to my diet. Exactly four years later, I find myself amazed at the difference in my life using the information on the Doctor Yourself website. I've helped myself, and I've been able to assist friends, relatives and my own family in ways I never thought possible. One special example of this is my own mother. In 2006, we lost Dad to lung cancer and a staph infection. On the same day as my father's passing, we were told that Mom had stage 3A colon cancer that would require surgery. After the operation, Mom was moved to a rehab facility where she was told she would have to stay for 6-10 weeks. By using supplementation from the very first day in rehab, Mom was home in 18 days, and driving her own car within another month. We now believe in the value of orthomolecular medicine because we live it. Standing on the shoulders of giants, we have seen the way to health."

"I have been off all medication for a year and 6 months with no seizures or complications""My father died in his early 50s from complications due to long term medication use. He had been on anti-convulsants since he was a boy. I was also diagnosed with epilepsy in my teens and given the same medication as my father. When he died I decided I didn't want to suffer his same fate, so I started researching on the internet alternative treatments. I came across Dr. Saul's website and that lead me to the conclusion that I didn't have to be on meds for the rest of my life like I was lead to believe. There are alternatives. I saw a Naturopathic Doctor and she supplemented my diet with Magnesium as well as an amino acid she orders from the States. I have been off all medication for a year and 6 months with no seizures or complications. This journey has also lead me to eliminate all chemicals and toxins from my home and eat an organic diet. Since doing this, for the first time in 19 years I have gone through 3 months migraine-free. The days I have had a migraine have been far milder than ever before. I am so thankful I have become pro-active with my health, I wish for everyone to do the same. Thank you Dr. Saul for leading me on the path to 'Doctor Myself'."

"First, I want to say THANK YOU for creating this film! It confirms everything I've learned in the last decade and what I've been preaching to family and friends but no one will hear. I was diagnosed with skin cancer about 10 years ago...""First, I want to say THANK YOU for creating this film! It confirms everything I've learned in the last decade and what I've been preaching to family and friends but no one will hear. I was diagnosed with skin cancer about 10 years ago on my right thigh in three different spots. I refused "modern" medical treatment and decided to take the matter into my own hands. Being a registered nurse for many years, I'd come to see that "modern" medicine kills more than it saves and I was NOT going to let them add me to that "Oh, sorry, but we did everything we could" list. I knew from what I'd learned that my body could and would heal itself if I'd put in the right state to do so... and I did just that. I poured myself into books, research online, you name it. Then I changed the way I ate, shopped, exercised, and lived. I did use one supplement that I also think helped, but I think my body may have healed on its own if I'd just continued with the dietary and lifestyle changes for a bit longer. Regardless, after only 2 months, the lesions were completely gone and have never returned. I also had fibrocystic breast tissue that was healed completely as a result. I have continued to modify my diet and lifestyle over the years which now includes being vegan and 90% organic. It's difficult to maintain this lifestyle in a country that doesn't support it, but I try as hard as I can to keep it up. I hope that others will begin the journey to healing, gain wisdom, and stop eating everything that is put in front of them just because someone with "authority" says it's safe. As a nurse, I can stand as an eyewitness to the fact that doctors WANT people to be sick. They lose money if they don't. I've heard many of them say it with my own ears. Why don't people realize that this is why give out prescriptions to begin with? They require a patient to come in for a "follow up" visit to get a refill on their prescriptions! Why? That's how they get you hooked and keep your money coming in! There is NO other reason unless the patient is experiencing new symptoms. Oh and here's an added bonus for the doctor, the prescriptions will make you sicker with new symptoms so you'll have to see them for that too! I've been an RN for 12 years, but have not been practicing for the past 2 years because I no longer want to be a part of a system that is so money hungry and shows such lack of concern for the poor souls who trust them. I don't see doctors anymore. I know this is extreme for many, but I just don't think they have our best interests at heart. I won't let them make me sick. If I need a doctor (which is rare), I see a naturalist and we figure it out the best course together. I trust medicine that has been around and worked for centuries, not a few decades. I know that if I continue to eat and live the way that I do that I will be healthy for as long as I live and that is likely to be at least 100! I hope others will wake up and start taking their health into their own hands finally."

"I cannot begin to thank you enough for the impact this film has had on me so far... I recently lost a close family member to cancer""I cannot begin to thank you enough for the impact this film has had on me so far (and it has only been a week since I saw it!). I recently lost a close family member to cancer and so seeing this film hit quite a few raw nerves. I am more convinced than ever that the time has come for this message to make it's mark and to change lives, giving people the knowledge required to take more control over their health. I am in the process of telling family and friends about this and how passionate I am about it, especially when I see many of them battling age old conditions with traditional medicine whilst doing nothing about their food or diet. I purchased my first juicer today and cannot describe how good it felt to be making a practical step in the right direction! Aside from those close to me however, I would like to learn more about the ways I can help to spread the word in my local area."

"I wish this documentary can be seen by all the world""I lost 3 men while I was doing counseling for a nonprofit with cancer survivors I try to raise awareness related to food habits, but first they would feel so tired due to chemo to go to the farmers market or to one of the many health food stores in San Francisco, only if you have had chemo, you know how weak you can feel, how depressed and with lack of interest in life. The pharmaceutical corporation, the "prodigal daughter of the petrochemical industry" has done all the unthinkable to stop any effort to come out with a new profile of non-invasive, non-aggressive treatments for the most common chronic illness, but at the bottom line, is always food, so I wish this documentary can be seen by all the world, is time for mankind to have a better opportunity and better chances to deal with health issues and find new treatments that don't "kill" the patient in order to save it... Thank you again for your courage and powerful action!"

"I can't say enough that it is absolutely true that Food Matters and in a very dramatic and dynamic way.""In February 1999 I was diagnosed with breast and cervical cancer. I did not do the surgery, chemotherapy or radiation that my doctor suggested. Instead I adopted a natural healing program including organic raw and living foods. In six months I was cancer free. I realized through facing my own health issues, that my destiny in the life was to teach others how to heal. In June 1999 I opened the Living Foods Institute in Atlanta, Ga. and began teaching people who continue to come from all over the world. I was always amazed at how people half way around the world from me could have possibly found out about my amazing story, but when a message needs to get out, the Divine makes sure it does. In the beginning most of the people who came to the center were looking to heal cancer and they did, every single one of them and of course, they told others who came and healed too. Soon people with MS, Parkinson's, Diabetes, Heart Disease, Depression, AIDS, and numerous other diseases including viral, bacterial, emotional and mental diseases were coming and hoping the program would help them. One by one these people healed in miraculous ways no matter what the disease was or how serious it appeared to be. Over the years as I have continued to teach people about raw and living foods, cleansing, detoxification and mental and emotional healing, I have come to realize that there is no disease too difficult for the body to heal when it is given what it needs to do the healing. It is miraculous what a change in diet and lifestyle can produce, but for absolute healing we must help a person in all areas. Putting good food on top of a bad situation won't give you the same results as cleansing and detoxifying the bad stuff out along with the good nutrition. Food was a key part of my healing protocol and not just any food, but specifically organic raw and living (sprouted) foods and it still is a key component in our healing protocol, but it is not the only necessary component. To achieve true healing and to stay healed a person must change their mental thinking, heal the emotional stuff buried inside, clean out the toxins from deep within the tissues and cells, build up the body from nutritional deficiency and cleanse the colon of waste, worms and parasites. When a person is willing to heal in all of these areas, the entire physical body heals because disease cannot reside in a high vibrational environment and organic raw and living foods, herbs and essential healing oils raise the vibrational frequency of the body thus creating perfect health. I am so grateful to have searched for and found the natural healing I was looking for and this is the reason that I have dedicated my life to helping others. I want to give back in a big way for the gift I have received from this lifestyle which is total and perfect health in every way. The side bonus is that this lifestyle reverses aging too, so it is delightful to watch yourself become younger right before your own eyes. When new students begin our 10 and 12 day programs I ask all of them to really look at each other and pay attention to how everyone looks on Day 1. Then on the final day I ask them to look again and everyone is always amazed at how years have melted off the face, lines and wrinkles are diminished, skin has smoothed out and lifted, and there is a glow about each person. Students say time and again that they feel like their feet are not touching the ground. I can't say enough that it is absolutely true that Food Matters and in a very dramatic and dynamic way."

"I am excited to see this put together and hope that the message is received out and clear across the world""I was diagnosed with uterine cancer, stage 3A, at the young age of 31. I was informed chemo was called for. Through extensive research and better awareness of what the causes were, I began to change my lifestyle forever. Through alternative medicine and organic foods I spent 6 months detoxing. The term vitamins that I once associated with "gym-rats" now became my everyday pleasure. I learned about the various vitamins, teas and more importantly the foods I needed to eat. This transformation not only saved my life, cured my illness but gave me the awareness I needed not only to enjoy eating at a whole new level but living life with new perspective. The strange thing about my experience is that after going through this process, upon my return to my doctor, I was informed that all the tests they ran, all the blood work done, all the culture and biopsy's performed.....they must have been misdiagnosed. At that moment I realized, there is no profit in cures only treatments. I now know the truth. I share my story with everyone that is willing to hear. I fear they will make the mistake in choosing what society has deemed acceptable rather than what is right. An article was released not too long ago taking a poll on Doctors. It was asked if they were diagnosed with cancer would they go through chemo. Would you believe that a shocking 80% said no. If our own doctors won't go through it... then why on earth should we?...That has to raise more questions there. Society spends too much on following what is popular and "in" rather than what is right and good. I am excited to see this put together and hope that the message is received out and clear across the world."

"...another friend getting off of anti-depressants has been following the vitamin regime and seems to be doing well on his withdrawal from the prescription world""I really liked your film. I have to say that I have started taking vitamins regularly since watching it and actually grew up with my dad taking large amounts of Vit C and he never got sick. At some point he did have other problems from that and stopped, but I think if he had been more moderate in his intake, wouldn't have needed to go to the other extreme. Also another friend getting off of anti-depressants has been following the vitamin regime and seems to be doing well on his withdrawal from the prescription world. He's still just off a month, so we'll see how it goes, but I think you guys are onto something and will inspire people. I liked the film and thought it was a good length and right amount of info – a really good balance."

"I was very sick and now I'm feeling so much more alive! I'm living proof that if you take care of your body by eating healthy foods and take supplements that your body can begin to heal itself...drugs make it worse.""Hi, I am a big believer of "we are what we eat"... I was very sick after having my first and "only" child, she's now 16 years of age. I couldn't get off the couch and was completely "Toxic". I was sore to the touch and my joints throbbed. I felt this terrible tiredness and couldn't do much but sleep, more so during the day. I won't mention the doctors names that did treat me but as I've done more and more research into natural healing with vitamins, minerals and good nutrition, I realize that doctors do not have the training in natural health to inform their patients. I was told I was depressed and that I had Fibromyalgia as I went through a separation and was looking after a young child on my own, I figured that made sense and the doctors must be right. I took antidepressants which made me feel good for a while but did nothing for the tiredness nor the pain. I started to feel "out of sorts" and later wasn't able to feel much of "anything" emotionally. I weaned myself off and this went on several times as several doctors prescribed the same SRI's but with a different name. My diet was terrible and I had ballooned to close to 200 lbs. I was usually around the 130 lb mark. I went back to work for a while but couldn't focus and my emotions were out of control. I know now all about hormones and how they were so out of whack...I had so much inflammation that it was effecting my eye sight and started to wear reading glasses. I was completely depressed with lots of pain. My diet was terrible, with pizza and comfort foods...my condition progressed. In and around the year 2000 I finally had it with doctors, so I opened up the natural healer directory and found a lady who taught me NLP, Time Line Therapy and hypnosis which did take the depression away and I was able to focus. I was still very overweight and still had much pain if I wasn't meditating. Shortly after, I met a women who's daughter went to school with mine and we became friends...when I told her about my ailments she referred me to a fellow who was very well versed about health and vitamins and apparently was a reseller of a certain brand. We later met and he gave me a box of these vitamins which had not only vitamins, but all essential minerals and power foods which i found out were "antioxidants" ...what did I have to lose? I began taking them and about a week later I remember how much energy I had...I was cleaning my house and afterwards didn't have to lay down to nap...I had energy!!! I also changed my diet and have to say that the vitamins and healthier lifestyle changed my life. I'm currently very successful, working full time, and I offer the vitamins and advice to help as many people as I can with autoimmune deficiency's and Cancer. I was very sick and now I'm feeling so much more alive! I'm living proof that if you take care of your body by eating healthy foods and take supplements that your body can begin to heal itself...drugs make it worse. It is true that if the doctors were educated in this area we would be too. It just hasn't worked that way, they really don't get the formal training in nutrition they need. I've talked to many doctors and I get the same feedback...although some are interested in finding out, they just don't know. I'm glad I now have this video to show to my friends and family...my mother currently has breast Cancer and the drugs she's taking have completely bogged her memory. She's 83 now and the drugs as far as I can see have sped up the aging process for her. She's not listening to me yet and I have faith that she will watch the video and I pray that she'll start taking the vitamins I'm trying to give her...This video really says it all! I can't thank you enough for this film!"

Can you find love in five minutes?
BY Katherine Scott body+soul
We've all heard of love at first site, but in reality, how effective is the whole speed dating phenomenon?
A woman sits anxiously in a crowded restaurant. Her date arrives—a reasonably attractive thirty-something—and takes his seat. Her relief is palpable. A flood of nervous chitchat ensues, interspersed with awkward silences. It takes just five minutes for her to ascertain: 1) he shares her affinity with old-fashioned diners; 2) he hates being interrupted; and 3) he still lives with his mum, who he likes to take to said diners.
Now, if this was a typical date the awkward pair would be sentenced to a whole evening together. But no; a bell rings and her cumbersome suitor stands and moves over to the next table. Sayonara. If only traditional dating was this simple.
The above scenario is a scene pinched from the new series Christine, featuring actress America Ferrera as a 29-year-old grad student in search of love and happiness at a speed dating event (watch the first episode of Christine here). In a sort of backhand way, it actually rather elegantly highlights the advantages of this dating method.
What is speed dating?
For those of you who have been living in a social bubble for the last decade, speed dating is a service in which singles gather to go on succession of rapid mini "dates" with potential partners, and decide at the end of the night who they would like to see again. Organisers facilitate an exchange of details if there is a match. It's a non-threatening way to meet new people, develop your confidence and dating skills, and (of course) secure a follow-up date. It's efficient, it's direct, and more importantly it's fun.
Can you find a soul mate in five minutes?
This progressive matchmaking method might not be the answer for every relationship-ready single, but it certainly has its sweet side.
Despite the short assessment time, speed dating groups generally report high dating success rates and high satisfaction. But like any modern dating service, it's not a sure thing.
According to a study published in the 2011 journal Biology Letters, researchers found that speed dating participants were less likely to follow up with any of their matches if factors such as educational background, age, height and occupation varied significantly.
While event organisers often carry out a certain amount of screening before show time, speed daters may still need to keep their expectations in check.
Justin Parfitt, owner of speed-dating organisation Fast Impressions, said women often come along to events with high expectations. "Most of the professional women rarely give out 'yes' votes to men who aren't similarly successful."
Come prepared
Come looking your best and armed with interesting and quirky questions, lest you be condemned to an evening of work/hobby responses on repeat. Ice-breakers like "what are you most proud of?" or "what's your most embarrassing moment?" give all parties a chance to showcase their sense of humour and values.
Approach with the right mindset, of having a light-hearted night out, and you are sure to make a good impression and have a more enjoyable experience.

About hypnosis and hypnotherapy
What is hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a state of deep relaxation that is natural and safe. It is a state of mind between waking and sleeping, where a person is conscious, aware of physical sensations and surroundings, and yet much more receptive to therapeutic suggestions than he or she normally would be.
What does hypnosis feel like?
The sensation of hypnosis will vary from person to person. It is usual for you to experience mild drowsiness together with pleasant feelings of comfort and well-being. You are, in fact, totally relaxed. People in hypnosis are conscious and able to hear the practitioner's voice, remaining at all times in control of themselves. They will not do or say anything that they would not elect to do of their own choice.
What does treatment involve?
In a typical session, your case history will be discussed along with your reasons for seeking hypnotherapy. Practitioners use different methods to induce hypnosis. You will be encouraged to sit comfortably in a chair, while the practitioner guides your mind into a focused, yet detached state.
It may be suggested to you that you feel heavy and your eyes are closing and your hands and limbs are growing lighter. These suggestions take you into a light sleep. For a deeper level the practitioner may count you down from five to one and ask you to imagine yourself descending a stairway.
Once the desired level of hypnosis has been achieved, suggestions are then made in order to bring about the desired change.
From Simmons Hypnotherapy Brochure.
Geelong, person A:
"It has now been just over a week since my session with John. I have not quit totally but I have cut down a lot. After trying for many years to quit, this time I seem to be getting closer to my goal. So while the hypnotherapy may not have been an instant quit solution, it has helped me get my mind into the space needed for me to move forward. Combined with nicotine patches, I am confident that I will be a non-smoker very soon."
Burwood, person B:
"I find [David] very approachable and easy to talk to/listen to and on the first meeting he very quickly put me at ease in the process of how we would go about the Hypnotherapy that would benefit me the most."
Burwood, person C:
"Session one- no hypnotherapy at this session but a very in depth discussion about my long habit. Why I started? Why I continue? Reasons why I smoke? Reasons why I want to quit smoking? Situations when I smoke more or less? This session really made me think about all these things, not just at the session but well after and even still now (4 weeks later).
Session two – was hypnotised- funny feeling, just felt sleepy, kicking back in a recliner. Did actually nod off to sleep 2 or 3 times during the session, you know when your head drops and it startles you awake. Listened to bits and pieces throughout as he spoke of the negatives of smoking, why I want to quit and ways to entertain my mind in order to stop smoking. Felt like forever- but was actually only about 20 minutes."
Burwood, person C on the importance of preparing:
"I think not preparing was a big mistake. My ashtray was still in the carport, I had half a packet of cigarettes left at home. I made it too easy for myself just to spark up again...It has indeed got me thinking and preparing for my next quit attempt. I think I will see the hypnotherapist again but this time will take away the temptation and really motivate myself (just like you can't lose weight with a block of top deck in the pantry, you can't quit smoking with a half a pack waiting at the front door!). I have quit in the past and know all it takes is will power, but your state of mind has to be in the right place."

Solid Value
This review is from: Lenovo Laptop IdeaPad G505s (59406400) AMD A8-Series A8-5550M (2.10 GHz) 6 GB Memory 500 GB HDD AMD Radeon HD 8550G 15.6" Windows 8.1
Pros: Sleek styling, strong performance at a competitive price. Keypad and touchpad are nice. Excelent Out Of Box Experience. Very easy servie access (HDD swap was a breeze).
Cons: I wouldn't have minded another USB 3.0 port, but oh well ... guess that's what hubs are for... The built-in web cam is ...meh.
Other Thoughts: My company uses Lenovo laptops on a massive scale and mine (at work) has been very reliable. It isn't glamorous, but I'm not about style or features, I'm about performance and dependability. So when I needed a new personal laptop I chose a Lenovo and I am not dissapointed. This package is actually quite sleek and attractive. The value is quite good compared to other big brands. I chose this one with a smallish HDD because I wanted to swap in a Samsung EVO SSD -- a process that took about 3 minutes. So overall I would recommend this to friends and family and to You !!

Great laptop for the price
This review is from: Lenovo Laptop IdeaPad G505s (59406400) AMD A8-Series A8-5550M (2.10 GHz) 6 GB Memory 500 GB HDD AMD Radeon HD 8550G 15.6" Windows 8.1
Pros: This is a good, fast laptop that's fairly reliable and good for gaming. I've seen no issues running current games on it. I'm enjoying using it quite a bit.
Cons: The bloatware that's included can be difficult to remove; make sure you uninstall included programs that you don't want before you install other programs that you use. The audio died on me once, and the keyboard died on me a different time, but restarting fixed both those issues right away. There seems to be a feature or issue with the mousepad that causes it to not recognize any input when a key on the keyboard is being held down. I'm still trying to find a way to fix that, but I use a separate USB wireless mouse most of the time anyway, so it doesn't bother me too much.
Other Thoughts: I'm enjoying this laptop. I use it mostly for gaming, and it's been good at that. I've had a number of minor issues (see the cons section), but those have been easy to fix or work around.

Kate McKay | Living courageous, even when you don't feel like it "All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we will leave behind is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another."
Anatole France
Often times we must let go of pieces of ourselves to move into our own power and grace. Be honest with yourself. What has to go? Who has to go? Why?
Know that with every "No", you are also saying "Yes" to something else. When one door closes, another one always opens. Faith is knowing that if you listen to your Truth, you will always be lead through the doors to your higher purpose. Do you believe this is true? Why or why not?
Seeing you courageous!
With Love,

Host Kate Crawford
Duration 01:12:07
Date recorded 15 July 2013
There has been a rapid expansion in the ability to gather and analyze communication data during acute events. As we saw most recently during Hurricane Sandy, people use social media services like Twitter and Facebook to share a range of personal information: be it their location, their health, the status of power and water access, or images of the disaster in their neighborhood. Fields such as crisis informatics and machine learning have brought powerful new insights to how communities deal with crises by drawing on this data. However, there are also causes for concern, such as the privacy and longevity of that data, and the invisibility of the many people and communities that are either not using social media or are living in areas with damaged or overwhelmed ICT infrastructure.
This session of the 2013 Microsoft Research Faculty Summit explores research avenues for disaster data, including the difficulties with the reliability of citizen accounts of disaster, issues with privacy and information sharing during disasters, and the hidden biases of disaster data and what it cannot capture.

text: Jerry Bartell Hancock County Forms Economic Task Forces By Jim Lenz • Apr 16, 2012 The Hancock County Economic Development Committee has formed three task forces composed of 25 volunteers each. They are looking for ways to encourage future economic development in the county. An initial meeting of selected three priorities; job creation, vocational training and entrepreneurship and encouraging residents to shop at local businesses. Each task force will hold an initial meeting in the next few weeks. They will then meet on a quarterly basis. Summit Will Be Key to County's Economic Vitality By James Lenz • Feb 1, 2012 The Hancock County Economic Development Committee will host a county economic summit March 29th. It hopes the summit will be the first step to reduce decades-long trends of job, business and population losses. Committee Chairman Jerry Bartell said the county was home to about 30,000 people at the beginning of the 20th century. He said the county population is down to about 19,000 people. He said, "But another alarming figure that got my attention was the fact that we lost 20% of our sales tax-paying businesses since 2000."

My Tiki Bar Demands It: The Pegleg Pirate Bottle Opener
This is the Legless Pirate Cork Screw designed by Nick Lerwill and sold by SUCK UK for $15. You want one? I kind of want one. One time a guy at the bar made me bet him $40 he wouldn't screw the bartender's corkscrew into the skin between his thumb and index finger. He did it. He did it, and I ran. Sucks too because I liked that bar but I'm not risking running into him again. Not just because I owe him money, but because I owe him money and he's a f***ing crazy person.
Thanks to Lindsey, who opens bottles the old fashioned way: breaking the top off so there's no putting the cork back in and you have to finish the whole thing in one sitting.

Nelson Sailing School Courses
We have sailing courses for absolutely every skill level.
Royal Yachting Association (RYA)
Before establishing Sail Nelson, we looked all over the world to find a certifying authority with well structured courses, a high standard of study notes and certification that would be well recognised by visitors to New Zealand.
Sail Nelson director John Moore invited the RYA's Chief Sailing Instructor to New Zealand in mid 2003. He organised meetings with sailing instructors, Maritime NZ and the NZ Coastguard Boating Education Service (CBES). At the end of 2003, CBES formed a partnership with the RYA to administer their courses within NZ.
John Moore was among the first to be trained as an RYA sailing
instructor in New Zealand, and Sail Nelson became a registered RYA sailing school in September 2004.

The state D.O.T. is adding more emergency ferry runs for Hatteras Island.
The D.O.T. says commuters told them they wanted an additional early evening run on the ferry between Stumpy Point and Rodanthe. So, starting Thursday they will add a 6:15 p.m. departure from Stumpy Point and an 8:45 p.m. departure from Rodanthe.
The state says people at a public meeting Tuesday night in Buxton had expressed concern that some were having trouble making the 5:00 p.m. run from Stumpy Point, so this will allow those folks to get home at a reasonable hour.
The emergency ferries have been running since the state shut down the Bonner Bridge because of safety concerns. There is no word on when the 2.7 mile bridge will reopen.
Previous Story
After consulting with passengers and officials from Dare and Hyde counties, The North Carolina Department of Transportation's Ferry Division has established additional runs on its Stumpy Point/Rodanthe and Swan Quarter/Ocracoke routes to help increase access to Hatteras and Ocracoke Islands during the closure of the Herbert C. Bonner Bridge.
Beginning immediately, the Ferry Division is adding departures from Stumpy Point at 11 p.m. and 3:30 a.m., and from Rodanthe at midnight and 1:30 a.m. The new schedule for the Emergency Route is now as follows:
Departing from Stumpy Point: 3:30a.m., 5, 6:30, 8, 9:30, 11, 12:30p.m., 2, 3:30, 5, 9:30, and 11.
Departing from Rodanthe: 1:30a.m., 6, 7:30, 9, 10:30, noon, 1:30p.m, 3, 4:30, 6, 7:30, and midnight.
In addition, fuel supply trucks will have designated runs on Tuesdays and Fridays from Stumpy Point at 5 a.m. and from Rodanthe at 10:30a.m. and 4:30 p.m. This will allow more deck space for regular vehicles on the other runs.
The Ferry Division is also amending its regular Pamlico Sound schedule, adding another round trip to its Swan Quarter/Ocracoke route beginning Tuesday, December 10, with an additional departure from from Ocracoke at 7p.m. and from Swan Quarter at 10p.m. The new schedule for our regular Pamlico Sound routes will be as follows:
Departing from Swan Quarter: 10a.m., 1p.m., 4, and 10p.m.
Departing from Ocracoke: 7a.m., 10, 12:45p.m, and 7p.m.
Departing from Cedar Island: 7:30a.m, 10, and 4p.m.
Departing from Ocracoke: 7:30a.m, 1p.m., and 4p.m.
The Ferry Division will continue to monitor traffic on the route to determine if any additional runs are needed.

In 2012, I Resolve To…
Love on my pets every single day.
Enjoy life to the fullest.
Drink a glass of wine a couple times a week.
(while reading Fitness magazine – hehe!!)
Eat dinner every night.
Flush the toilet after going to the bathroom.
Drink coffee every morning…
You could say I'm not a big New Year's Resolution person. Ok fine, I kinda hate NY resolutions. Thinking about a goal to make and hold myself to for the NEW year? Way too overwhelming. I had good intentions on 2009 and 2010 resolutions, but still… not for me. Or maybe I've just changed.
Instead, I tend to act immediately if I want to change something. My goals are constant. If I find myself stressing out way too much, I act to change that as soon as I detect it.
In fact, I currently have two "working on myself"…isms going on right now.
1. Coupon
clipping printing
My friend, Steph, saves bajillions with coupons and a couple weeks ago, she let me in on all her secrets. Now, half of my Google reader consists of Coupon blogs and websites and I spend the first 30 minutes of my day looking at the latest coupons.
I'm happy to say I saved a whopping $21 at Jewel today
If you guys would be interested, I'd be happy to write a post on what I've learned so far.
2. Crafting
I can completely blame this on Pinterest, but one of my current new fascinations (I refuse to say the word goal/resolution/vow etc!) st putting thought into things and crafting gifts.
I'm working on a special New Year's gift for a very special friend and I can't wait to see how it turns out.
In between cleaning, dealing with Walgreens.com photo shop (check out this deal!! – hello coupons ) and researching, I stopped for lunch.
This would be some lentil soup (Progresso brand…I love it) over some brown rice and sprouts from last night's dinner. With a Vitamin Water Zero – Go-Go. Shane's got me hooked on them!
I know it's a bit of an odd combination, but it was so good and a great way to get in some veggies.
Have a great afternoon!
Do you make New Year's resolutions? If so, what are some of them?

Buffel Grass: An Augmented Landscape
Beudel, Saskia, Cultural Studies Review
One year I deliberately chose to spend time in Alice Springs during early summer. Until then I had only visited in winter, the peak tourist season. This time I flew in rather than drove and met the first wave of heat through the parting glass doors at the airport.
I stayed at the usual place but was surprised to discover that it had come to life. At nightfall, the walls and windows hosted numbers of small pale geckoes lying in wait for insects, and chirruping loudly through the night. There were two that hunted from the outside glass panes of the window next to the kitchen table, and as I ate dinner I had an intimate view of their pale fawn underbellies and the sticky discs at their fingertips with which they clung to the sheer surface of glass. Their dark bulging eyes glistened as they lay in wait for the moths attracted by my kitchen light. At dusk, when I went walking through the ironwoods and hakeas, a sacred kingfisher darted through a low submerged greenish light that lingered beyond sunset. In the heat of the day a wasp came and went outside the door, building a nest against the side of the stone steps. Its nest was composed, so far, of three small mud cups joined together in a cellular pattern. In the undergrowth, lizards rustled when I passed; along the gravel driveway was a resident goanna about a metre long, and out on the road a large brown snake sunned itself on the bitumen. The first couple of nights were quite cool; but then, in the middle of the night, around 3 a.m., I was woken by the sound of distant wind approaching across the landscape-that particular sound wind has when it is imminent, a roil of motion approaching a pocket of stillness. I was sleeping with the door open and when the wind struck it was hot. A hot wind in the middle of the night was completely counter-intuitive to me, when one associates nights with cooling. A wave of heat was crossing the desert in the darkness.
I realised I was familiar with weather changing from across the sea: cool south- westerly changes coming in across Port Phillip Bay. Not waves of heat arriving from inside the continent in the dark. And from that night onward it grew steadily hotter and hotter, with clear crisp mornings, and evenings that were still hot, but where colour softened and the nearby ranges suddenly became comprehensible again as objects in space. During the heat of the day they seemed inaccessible, shrunken into the distance, and incomprehensible, shrunken under glare and the high, whitened colour of heat. At sunset, the edges of deep golds and burnished oranges across stone ridges brought them close again, as if the landscape had pieced itself together in the softlight.
In my preoccupation with buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris) I spent a couple of weeks at the library at the Arid Zone Research Institute (AZRI), the Northern Territory Archives Service, and the CSIRO library. What had happened between imported seeds carrying such improving potential that, as one nineteenth century seedsman put it, they would 'cause streams of wealth, and happiness, and progress to meander through all our plains and valleys', to them later (at least in some instances), breeding a form of despair and alarm?1 I had become preoccupied with buffel grass because of the diverse narratives it delivers about processes of placemaking in central Australia. It 'speaks' on a number of registers: as an 'instrument of colonial domination' during settlement and the expansion of pastoralism in the region;2 it discloses scientific attempts to both remedy the destructive effects of overgrazing and make better economic use of the arid zone; it also reveals more recent ecological understandings of desert lands and their biota.3 As with many introduced species, buffel grass divides opinion. A comprehensive report for the Desert Knowledge Cooperative Research Centre, evaluating benefits and risks associated with continued use of buffel grass for pasture, captures in its title the polarised views the grass elicits: 'Buffel Grass: Both Friend and Foe'. …

I want to disable all users OutOfOffice-replies but backup their original settings.
So what I do for each user:
I run "zmprov ga" to query their actual state and then I run "zmprov ma" to disable OOO.
I've 207 users on my system and the above code takes approx. 30minutes. WOW !!! This is really really slow.Code:zmprov -l gaa | sort | while read i; do echo -n "$i:"; zmprov ga "$i" | grep zimbraPrefOutOfOfficeReplyEnabled || echo; zmprov ma "$i" zimbraPref OutOfOfficeReplyEnabled FALSE; done
Any way to make things faster? To query directly from ldap or mysql? Why is it so slow?
Thnx for your ideas,
