For the days I'm running late, I take a can of V8 juice (the small size) and a Kellogg's Special K Flatbread Sausage, Egg, & Cheese Breakfast Sandwich. I have a microwave at work, so at my first chance I nuke it for a minute or two and take it back to my desk and eat while I'm working. The V8 and the sandwich are 270 calories together.
great thread, motivates me to try this app . . . my smart phone is terrible though.
You can always just use the website if your phone isn't up to it.
If you try to use MyFitnessPal and have issues, like it doesn't want to update your gender and other info like that, try going to the MyFitnessPal.com website and setting up your account at a regular computer. Once the account is set up, the MFP app works better. I think the app asks you for info to set up your account, but it can't enter the data into the account until the account is actually created. So it keeps reverting back to the default values, whatever they are. I had that issue; once I set it up from my desktop computer it was fine.
Personally, I think that eating a little of everything, in moderation, paying attention to total calories and the balance of macronutrients (carbohydrates, protein, and fat) is healthier than excluding certain foods categorically. But you can make better or worse choices, and it helps to accustom yourself to the better. The delicata squash I roasted as a side dish for dinner tonight tasted just as good as a baked potato with butter, except it didn't need any butter.
Totally agree. I did low carb several years ago. I'm enjoying just trying to limit calories better. More flexibility. But I've only had about a half dozen cookies in 2 months. I just can't justify the calorie count.
I've been on MFP for a while (I was on it for a year, lost 45 pounds, and started to gain when i stopped using it).
The thing I like the most is that it forces you to make choices with your calories. A lot of stuff I used to eat I walk away from now. Where I work my employees bring in cookies every single day. I always look at the calories and think to myself that for the same calories as one cookie I could have an orange and an apple. Conversely, after a metric century it's pizza time!
I find there calories for biking a little on the generous side, but I just use the calories from my heart rate monitor when I exercise.
ps--actually, this has been studied quite a bit, it's called "weight cycling" in the scientific literature (get it . . . "cycling" . . . "bike forums" it's cycling realted :) ), check out this study where they found low number of cycles (1-4) was actually associated with lower mortality (I'm guessing these were successful dieters?) and high number of cycles (>20) conferred no additional risk of death . . .
pps--here's a summary of the state of knowledge on "weight cycling" . . . not very helpful! here's the conclusion . . . gee, thanks . . . I'll *try* to do that, doh!Quote:
Weight cycling has been associated with an increased risk of death in some studies, but few studies differentiated weight cycling initiated by intentional weight loss from that initiated by illness. The association of weight cycling with death was examined among 55,983 men and 66,655 women in the Cancer Prevention Study II Nutrition Cohort from 1992 to 2008. A weight cycle was defined as an intentional loss of 10 or more pounds (≥4.5 kg) followed by regain of that weight, and the lifetime number of weight cycles was reported on a questionnaire administered at enrollment in 1992. A total of 15,138 men and 10,087 women died during follow-up, which ended in 2008. Hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals were estimated using Cox proportional hazards regression models. When the models were adjusted for age only, weight cycling was positively associated with mortality (P for trend < 0.0001). However, after adjustment for body mass index and other risk factors, low numbers of weight cycles (1-4 cycles) were associated with slightly lower mortality rates (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.93, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.89, 0.97 in men and HR = 0.93, 95% CI: 0.89, 0.98 in women), whereas high numbers of weight cycles (≥20 cycles) were not associated with mortality (HR = 1.03, 95% CI: 0.89, 1.19 in men and HR = 0.99, 95% CI: 0.88, 1.12 in women). These results do not support an increased risk of mortality associated with weight cycling.
Experts need to learn more about weight cycling. Knowing if it is a cause or effect of poor physical and mental health is important. In the meantime, you can help yourself if you are overweight or obese. Try to eat healthy and get plenty of physical activity. If you go through a weight cycle, do not feel like a failure. Just keep trying your best.
Just checking back in to say down 38, but stalling out a bit with the cold weather. Cold really makes me want to eat more unfortunately...
I use map my ride on a iphone. You can enter the food you eat during the day and it keeps track of your calorie intake and what you have burned during the bike ride.
I have been using myfitnesspal for 195 days and I have lost 72 pounds. I am 196 lbs as of this morning, these things really work!
Made it to almost 42 down now since the end of June. Yup, it works!
Over the last year and a half I lost about 60 pounds using my fitness pal. Not only did it give me calorie information but it helped me to make adjustments to my diet for healthier foods. More than going on I diet, it gave me the information I needed to make fundamental changes to the way I eat. It also helped me gauge what I needed to eat to replace the calories I brined while riding my bike. Now that I have a healthy sustainable diet I am not loggingall my food and exercise on a daily basis but I still use it to track my weight. I highly reconmend this program.
227 Days using the app and I am down 75.8lbs
I started using myfitnesspal.com a few weeks ago. I am only using my computer (not my iPhone) and it seems to log pretty well.
I have had great success following a nutrition plan in the past when keeping a food diary, but couldn't sustain the logging -- I didn't like carrying around the 3-ring binder and book of calorie counts EVERYWHERE.
The exercise calories vary wildly from what my Polar HRM and Garmin/Strava report. There is so much difference in exertion between cycling 14mph on hilly chipseal with stopsigns; and 12mph on smooth flat paved roads with few intersections.
I still have a challenge with some of the foods.
What was in the homemade dessert I sampled at a party? How big is "a slice"?
How much oil/butter was in the entree that a caterer provided at the same party?
It has been an eye-opener seeing where the calories are coming from.
I don't use sugar, but it is everywhere including the fresh fruit that I love. An apple uses up most of my daily allowance.
I am not a big meat eater, but I still get more protein than RDA from all the dairy and whole grains and beans in my diet.
I had been doing a workday grab+run car breakfast consisting of a Clif bar and a Starbucks coffee energy drink this past year. I am going to only do that as a pre-bikeride breakfast and switch to something less sugary/caloric before work.
Right now I am riding like crap. I have lost a few pounds but am still near my recent worst tonnage.
I can gauge my energy levels by how hard it is to climb the 30 stairs to my office with a backpack on.
When I was not minding my diet, I was able to run up the stairs most days (except the day after a hard bikeride).
Now it is a slow trudge and often a stop at the top landing.
My usual 1-hour weeknight ride I used to average 15-17mph.
I am down to 13mph and I am getting dropped on group rides if there is the slightest hint of an incline.
It is really tempting to err on the side of overfueling to be able to ride with my friends. This has been a real issue for me in the past. The group rides are my main social outlet.
So it goes. Hopefully the long-term gains (actually losses) will override the short-term pain.
When I was loosing weight, I only replaced about half the calories that I burned when exercising. This helped my weight loss without putting my body starvation mode.
Still, it's a useful tool if you are aware of its limitations. I've lost 47 lbs. since January while using MFP.
I stepped on the scales this morning and found I was 9# heavier than I was 2 days earlier. Yikes.
Yep Doohickie, I was horrified looking at the chocolate+chocolate chip cookie nutrition info. At least the cookies are all gone now.
Christmas Eve calorie intake excesses were bad enough, although a good bike ride mitigated the damage so I was "only" 300kcals over goal -- supposedly a net loss.
I am not even going to log Christmas Day! I am pretty sure it was 2-3 days worth of calories on my plate and I did the lazy girl thing sitting around most of the day.
Hopefully all my muscle glycogen stores are filled up along with all the water those cells need.
Last year On January 1st I weighed 277, this morning I am 195. (was down to 193) Ok so I went up 2 pounds over the Christmas Holiday :lol: As Brian mentioned some of the MFP estimates are not realistic so what I do is I take the lowest exercise count and the highest calorie count for food and I have been taking the weight off with no problem.

Liberate Your Art
Photographer, Reader, Writer, Thinker, Dreamer
I bought my first SLR camera (a Yashica TL-ELECTRO) when I was 17 and imagined I would become a great photographer. My love of photography, unfortunately, was thwarted by a photo-journalism class (the first "C" in college, but not the last!) as well as several packages of accidentally exposed photo paper and the high cost of film on a student budget. An unexpected gift of a Canon Rebel xSI four years ago reawakened those old, dormant dreams. A bit wiser now, I knew that photog instructor was full of bs even if technically he was pretty good. I began snapping away and haven't looked back. Mostly, I shoot nature photography because flowers and rocks don't talk back at you when you pose them.

Gale Force Nine 5 Piece Diamond Micro File review
I picked up the Gale Force Nine 5 Piece Diamond Micro File set because my current files are getting a bit old. As I was buying some other items Paul from Dice Bag Games gave me the files if I wrote a review on them.
I liked the files because they are small and the set had a half moon file which is really the only style of file I really use. The five files include a half moon, flat, round, square, and triangle. The files turned out to be a bit too small, well too short really you really need to use very short strokes.
The files are covered in fine sand like coating, the diamonds I guess. When using the files this results in a finish that has fine scratches instead on a normal wavy flat file pattern. I found it difficult to get a smooth finish. They also take of material slightly slower than normal files, this seems to be mostly due to the shorter length of the diamond files. The files worked better on metal then on plastic pieces, the scratchy finish was worse on plastic. One nice thing about the files is that they do not look like they clog up easily as there are no grooves.
The diamond files will be added to my collection of tools as they are small enough to get into places my normal files can reach. If you need small files I would look for other options before buying these. I do not know how long the diamond finish will last.

Name is Sean I live in North County of San Diego, CA.
Been riding for a little over a year for commuting but bought my first Road bike back in May. I have been enjoying riding. I actually gave up driving a little over a year ago. I figured I lived only 4 miles from work so It was a waste to drive every day.
Hit me up if anyone in the area wants to do a ride on the weekends.

It was almost a wholesale change in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 this week, with indie rap duo Macklemore & Ryan Lewis landing at #2 with their debut The Heist, and Bad Boy rhymer MGK coming in at #4.
While Mack and Lewis moved 78,000 copies and MGK put up nearly 51,000 in sales for Lace Up, neither could stop British folkies Mumford & Sons from scoring a third week at #1 with Babel, which sold 96,000, according to figures provided by Nielsen SoundScan.
Just behind Mack were long running face-painted rockers Kiss, who scored a #3 debut for Monster (56,000), prog metalers Coheed and Cambria at #5 with The Afterman: Ascension (49,000) and punkers All Time Low at #6 with Don't Panic (48,000).
The parade of new faces continued with legendary songstress Barbra Streisand's Release Me (#7, 44,000) and Ellie Goulding's Halcyon, which snuck in at #9 (34,000). The week's holdovers included Pink's The Truth About Love (#8, 36,000) and Muse's The 2nd Law (#10, 31,000).
Just outside the top 10, the latest from sensitive rockers The Script, #3, debuted at #13 (24,000) and Adele's indomitable 21 (#15, 22,000) nearly tipped into the 9.9 million sales realm as it sneaks toward diamond sales status.
Over on the iTunes album chart, Macklemore & Lewis topped the tally, followed by Mumford, the soundtrack to "Pitch Perfect," Goulding, MGK, Jason Aldean's Night Train, All Time Low, Muse, Jay-Z's Live in Brooklyn EP and Fun.'s "Some Nights."
Taylor Swift was tops on the iTunes singles tally with "I Knew You Were Trouble," ahead of Psy's "Gangnam Style," Adele's James Bond theme "Skyfall," Maroon 5's "One More Night," Ke$ha's "Die Young" and Fun.'s "Some Nights." Swift was at it again at #7 with "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together," with Rihanna's "Diamonds" just behind, followed by Swift's "Red" and Alex Clare closing it out with "Too Close."
Things look to stay pretty stat next week, with the physical release of Aldean's album, as well as a Christmas collection from former "American Idol" winner Scotty McCreery and Brandy's latest.

FORT WAYNE, Ind.—In 2008, Indiana University–Purdue University Fort Wayne (IPFW) became the first Summit League school to hold a Pink Out event in support of breast cancer research and awareness programs. Since that first event, thousands of dollars have been raised for research and awareness, and scores of breast cancer survivors have been recognized for winning their battles against the disease.
Details of the 7th Annual Pink Out will be released at a news conference Monday, January 27, at noon in Kettler Hall, Room 154.
Featured speakers at the news conference will include Vicky Carwein, chancellor; Kelley Hartley Hutton, interim athletics director; and Catherine Hill, executive director of the Vera Bradley Foundation.
Breast cancer survivors are invited to attend the Pink Out luncheon and basketball game free of charge; tickets for all others will be $20. Details on how to sign up for the event will be released at the news conference.
Members of the media are encouraged to cover the news conference so details about Pink Out and how to sign up for it reach as many breast cancer survivors as possible.
For more information, contact Nicole Wilkins, chief communications officer, 260-481-4174, firstname.lastname@example.com or Bill Salyer, assistant athletic director/media services, 260-481-0729 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

"Fallen TV Star" Scott Burgess (Water Rats, Above the Law, The Great Bookie Robbery, 1915) told A Current Affair tonight of a dispute with his wife that has cut short his acting career and sees him working for $17.50 an hour in a boat yard.
Behind the story lays a broken relationship, multi-million dollar assets, insurance claims and apprehended violence orders.
Burgess admitted he slapped his partner of 20 years and mother of his children, Tracy Jones.
Burgess said his wife was a skilled accountant, looking after their finances, but after the birth of their third child Jones took ill and cashed in insurance policies claiming she could no longer work.
Burgess claims he stumbled onto some money he knew nothing about. Burgess says when he brought up questions about financial matters he "lost it."
"I slapped her and I threw her on the lounge," he said. "It's probably the worst thing I've ever done in my life. I have a great deal of remorse for that."
A tearful Burgess spoke about wanting to watch his kids grow.
Jones is said to have been awarded a $300,000 lump sum insurance payment and $17,000 a month in compo payments. Burgess pays $250 a week in child support.
More of the story described an apprehended violence order taken out by Jones who, according to ACA, "cut off all access to their $4m fortune." It also featured two other men who questioned Jones' incapacity to work.
Throughout the ACA story there were surreptitiously filmed shots of Jones in car parks. Reporter Chris Eccleston confronted her but she evaded his questions.
So far, only one side of this story appears to have been told.
ACA said it requested a formal interview with Jones but she declined.

I use Zimbra as my personal email server and have been happily using IMAP to connect my Android phone (Nexus 4, running K-9) to ZCS. Recently I added my wife's phone (Nexus S) to sync using IMAP with K9 also. Since then, IMAP ceases to function a few hours after restarting ZCS, with K9 reporting NIO exceptions on both phones. Restarting ZCS allows IMAP to work again but only for a couple of hours. There is nothing useful in mailbox.log, but the "stacktrace.21339.20130112002535" log file seems (to me) to indicate a thread deadlocking issue. The log file is attached.
Any thoughts on how to address, or work around, this issue? I'm going to try disabling push email on K9 to see if this helps.

A Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor
Post to the Host
Host Garrison Keillor answers your questions about life, love, writing, authors, and of course, A Prairie Home Companion.
October 15, 2007 | 9 Comments
Dear Garrison Keillor,
As an American publisher of various monographs related to the Nobel Institution(s) and its prizes, I was truly horrified (not at all amused) by this week's comedy segment (conversation between Al Gore and George Bush) which repeated made reference to Sweden. Kindly note (as bachelor from Lake W would surely know) that the Nobel Peace Prize is awarded by the Nobel Peace Prize Committee in OSLO (like that's Norway) and not Sweden. Furthermore the peace prize award ceremony takes place in Oslo and not in Stockholm. I can now perceive why my many friends at the KVA in Stockholm find your radio broadcast less amusing than I usually do.
Best regards,
Neale W.
Sagamore Beach, MA
The mistake about the Peace Prize was made by a character in the sketch, George W. Bush, and was a deliberate mistake. Have you ever heard of this device being used in comedy? Do you have some sense of humor other than sarcasm? Your letter is a small world into a mind I am truly grateful not to know. If you were "horrified" by the sketch, how do you manage to live in this world of war and suffering and cruelty? Please devote your attention to some other show, my good man. I'd hate to think of you listening, breathing hard, taking everything literally.

You Go Garrison!!!! I wish I had have half your ability in language. Nothing like an English major, that's why I had to marry me one.
That skit gave me the best laugh I'd had all week!
Garrison -- take a deep breath -- look into a mirror -- then re-read what you said here. Does the concept of over-reaction come to mind?
All the poor guy did was not get the joke, after all.
Looks like somebody sure got up on the wrong side of the bed there, don't-cha-know.
You're right, he should have known better.
But then, it could be symptomatic of most Americans inability to distinguish reality from what they see on tv or hear, even on N.P.R..
In fairness to Mr. Neale, Keillor says that the Nobel Prize is given in Sweden in the 'Doris' monologue, too. The Doris sketch doesn't have any 'characters.' The speaker is given as Garrison Keillor. So that's Keillor getting it dead wrong in that part of the program. You can look at the 'Doris' script, and throughout 'Sweden' and 'Swedish' is used. Even the 'foreign accent' is given as Swedish, not Norwegian. Probably Mr. Neale noticed that Keillor got it wrong in 'Doris' and then heard it again later and sent the e-mail about the only part he remembered.
Ever noticed how nasty GK gets when someone else makes a mistake? He could have double-checked himself and answered charitably and privately, instead of turning on his listener and publicly attacking him. Rise above it, GK. Prove you are above your critics, not below them.
Nel, Doris got it right (Nobel prize for literature) and GWB got it wrong (Nobel prize for Peace). Everything except Peace takes place in Stockholm, Sweden. Peace takes place in Oslo, Norway. Still, I am chagrined at how testy GK can get when he is irked. Seems to be happening more and more lately. Sullies the image. If he's this crotchety now, can you picture him at seventy-five? I'll keep listening, however, because he's the best thing on radio.
GK's criticism stands. The Swedish Academy is the body responsible for awarding the Nobel in literature. I had to look it up, but it was a 30-second exercise.
I missed the show this week, but will listen to it soon. I'm glad I read the Doris sketch, because I'd had that vague feeling of guilt all week as I've never read Lessing, nor did I know much about her. Now I know that I can better spend my time elsewhere, in part because ol' Garrison Keillor has proven himself trustworthy. Well done. Life's too short for self-importance.
You have the courage to tell people what
you think. Thank goodness. My dead father
was the same way. He was the most honest
man I've ever known. No, not over-reacting,
but telling it like it is -- our world
is not, and will probably never be ready for
that. Please don't let that stop you...
i loved that little bit between Al G. & "the decider". i didn't catch the subtle reference to Norway/Sweden. i think GK overeacted a wee bit to a missed joke.
on the good side, several years ago i worked in "Bal'more" and there are people who talk like that, quite a hoot hearing that.:)
Great show. thanks

MERRIFIELD, Va. (WUSA9) - It's kitten season, says The 4Paws Rescue Team, and during June the non-profit organization rescued 100 kittens and their mothers from high-kill animal shelters. 4Paws, however, doesn't want you to overlook the adult cats.
The organization is holding two special adoption events to place cats into their forever homes. Through Labor Day, adoption fees will be reduced to $45 for cats eight years old and older. During the same time period, 4Paws is running a "best buddy" deal, where you pay for one cat and his best buddy gets to tag along for free. Yes, you adopt one and get one free!
4Paws says all of the cats available for adoption have been checked by a vet, received age appropriate vaccinations, and been spayed or neutered if old enough.
Check out the list of adoptable cats & kittens at 4Paws online adoption fair at www.fourpaws.org. You can also call 703-715-6369 or email firstname.lastname@example.com with any questions.
Fill out the application form to start the adoption process (also on the website). Then fax it to 703-560-9795 or scan and email to firstname.lastname@example.com.
You can also check out these upcoming 4Paws adoption fairs:

Update: Microsoft Advisory 2757760 Windows Internet Explorer Vulnerability
0 Comments | Posted by Michael Thumann
Microsoft takes this vulnerability quite serious and was acting fast. The Microsoft Security Response Center announced the availability of a fix last night in the MSRC Blog.
The fix will be available via Windows Update on friday, the 21st of september. So it's time to get ready for this update ;-).
Have a nice day
Microsoft Advisory 2757760: Windows Internet Explorer Zero-Day Vulnerability
0 Comments | Posted by Michael Thumann
Actually a Windows Vulnerability (Microsoft Advisory 2757760) related to the Internet Explorer Version 7, 8 and 9 is in the news. Microsoft is aware of the problem, but there's no patch available yet. We call this a 0-Day :-). Making the problem even worse, on monday reliable exploit code was released within the Metasploit project, so exploit code is already in the wild.
Basically Microsoft suggests two workarounds:
- Usage of EMET (Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit)
- Disabling Active X and Active Scripting in the Internet Settings
But both of them have some impact: EMET must be deployed before any usage (btw. EMET can be configured via Group Policies) and disabling Active X and Active Scripting might break some business relevant web sites (that can be added to the "Trusted Sites" Zone, but might produce major operational effort).
There are more possible mitigating controls, so let's just summarize some ideas:
- Use of alternative browser: if you have it deployed already, go for it :-). Otherwise we have the same deployment issue as with EMET.
- Sandboxing/Application Virtualization: It's the same as with the alternate browser, of you have it, go for it, otherwise it will be a long term project. And be aware that also Application Virtualization won't address all issues (see the ERNW Newsletter 32 for details).
- No local admin rights: This doesn't protect from exploiting the vulnerability, but at least reduces the impact. We strictly recommend to check the local administrator group and remove all users that don't rely on it for fulfilling their business tasks. And btw. this topic is not new ;-), see also ERNW Newsletter 4, published in 2004!
- Blocking communication for the clients at the corporate firewall: Be aware that this doesn't really work. Modern exploit code is able to use the corporate proxy infrastructure including authentication to circumvent this control. Metasploit has exploit payloads for this.
- Disabling/Blocking Flash content: While potentially not strictly required for exploitation, at least in some of the exploits currently observed in the wild Adobe Flash plays a major role. So like discussed in these Insinuator posts (1, 2 and 3), restricting the use of Adobe Flash would proactively prevent some known exploits from working. But the newly published Metasploit exploit doesn't use Flash, so keep in mind that this mitigating control can only be used in addition to other ones.
So for a short term mitigation we recommend the following (especially for corporate environments)
- Disabling Active X and Active Scripting via Group Policies
- Disable/block Flash content
- Remove unneeded local administrative privileges
- If available use alternative browser or EMET
For long term mitigation (might also be feasible in small environments as short term mitigation):
- Deploy EMET
- Evaluate possibilities of application sandboxing/virtualization
- Deploy alternative browser. Be aware that deploying a second browser might not be an option for big corporate environments (central management and supporting/maintaining additional software are the main reasons for this).
And finally DON'T PANIC ;-), start to address the problem in a professional way.
Hope that helps a bit

Drooling and Proofing16
One of the great pleasures—and tortures—of my life is proofreading cookbooks that I've written.
We're going to be publishing Fix-It and Forget-It Lightly, Revised and Updated in early May. The revised book has 600 healthy, low-fat recipes to make in your slow cooker (100 of these recipes are brand-new to this cookbook). And the recipes are so temptingly good that I'm hungry all the time as I proof the pages.
Check out the new cover:
As I go, I keep copying recipes I want to make again, and then I go truckin' home with my fat pile of pages and put together my grocery list.
When I went to our farmers market early Friday morning, I saw fresh cabbage and potatoes at the first stand where I stopped. They both went into my basket, just as I had a flash about the Italian sausage I had tucked into the freezer a little while ago.
Then a recipe came back to me that I had just proofed. I was sure it called for these hearty ingredients.
I tore home and quickly defrosted the sausage.
Into my cooker went potato chunks, cabbage wedges, sausage lengths, and onion slices.
The recipe called for topping things off with water. I had another flash—this time of a pint of home-canned stewed tomatoes which Merle's big-gardening brother and sister-in-law had given us for Christmas. The red jewels looked back at me whenever I dug in my pantry—and now I needed them to bring the robust flavors together that were waiting in the slow cooker.
I can't bear over-cooked cabbage, mushy potatoes, or wrung-dry sausage. So I packed the filled cooker into the car and flipped it on when I got into the office. I planned to watch over it and stop the cooker just when things got tender.
Two hours later, a rumble built in the larger office. "What is that extraordinary smell?" everyone was asking. I closed the door firmly, feeling a little guilty and a little proud.
We loved our dinner that evening. I loved the fact, too, that I added no salt to these lovely vegetables, seasoned only with gusto from the chunks of Italian sausage.
We ate like earthy peasants—and we have sturdy leftovers.
Cabbage with Kielbasa
Fix-It and Forget-It Lightly: Revised and Updated
Makes 6-8 servings
Prep Time:15-20 minutes
Cooking Time: 3-4 hours
1½ medium-sized heads of cabbage, cut into wedges
¾ lb. kielbasa or sausage of your choice, cut into chunks
8 medium-sized potatoes, cut into small pieces
1 good-sized onion, sliced
2 cups water
1. Combine all ingredients in slow cooker.
2. Cover. Cook on low 3-4 hours, or until cabbage and potatoes are done to your liking.
Variation: Instead of water, use 1 pint stewed or diced tomatoes.

Supporters of stricter gun control laws have long alleged that Ohio is a primary center for illegal firearm purchases, and a recent investigation by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg appears to confirm the point.
Bloomberg's office conducted a sting operation at a Sharonville gun show in late May and found that four sellers sold weapons to undercover investigators even though they told the sellers they probably couldn't pass required background checks, which is a violation of federal law.
The city of Cincinnati starts hosting a series of 10 open houses tonight to provide information on the proposed streetcar line connecting the downtown riverfront, Over-the-Rhine and the Uptown area around UC. City staff will be on hand to answer questions about the line's economic benefits, costs and route. There is no formal presentation.
Tonight's meeting is 5-7 p.m. in the lobby of the Aronoff Center for the Arts downtown, 650 Walnut St.
The "Highway to Health Care" tour rolls into town Saturday, stopping in Bond Hill to help local people contact their members of Congress to demand real health care reform. Sponsored by the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME), the tour features an RV outfitted as a mobile activism center, complete with on-board laptop computers, cell phones and postcards for participants to contact their Senators and Representatives.
Amid all the debate over a recent proposal to tax panhandlers, some people have wondered whatever happened to Cincinnati's requirement that all beggars get city-issued I.D. badges. In a little-noticed decision, an appellate court struck down that provision more than two years ago.

Doctors' use of e-prescriptions soars
Saks is among the 20 percent of New Jersey physicians who use electronic prescribing systems to send prescriptions straight to a patient's pharmacy. It is a timesaver for doctors and patients, and research shows it reduces medication errors.
From a small laptop in an examining room in Paramus, Saks sent the prescription for the toddler to the Grossbaums' pharmacy. It saved Zeesy Grossbaum, the mother of Mendel and five other children, a wait at the drugstore on a beautiful summer day.
"It's such a pleasure," Grossbaum said. "When I go to other doctors who don't have this it's like, why aren't you doing this?"
Nationally, the number of electronic prescriptions has grown dramatically to 326 million in 2009, up from 190 million in 2007 — a surge that is expected to continue as federal health care reform creates more incentives for physicians to convert to electronic medical records and prescribing.
"Electronic prescribing is now well on its way to becoming mainstream practice," said Harry Totonis, president and CEO of Surescripts.
The biggest drawbacks to e-prescriptions are the cost — practices have to spend about $20,000 to $30,000 per physician, and that doesn't include training or upkeep — and the complexity of converting to an electronic medical records system.
Physicians report several benefits to e-prescribing. They can check for harmful drug interactions when writing a prescription. Those come up as a red flag in the patient's medical history.
The Institute of Medicine estimates that 7,000 deaths occur each year nationally due to medication errors, and many of these are caused by illegible handwriting and human error.
Doctors can confirm prescription benefits with the system. They also know they won't hear from the pharmacy questioning illegible writing.
Dr. Anthony J. Barravecchio, a Wayne, N.J., physician who specializes in family and geriatric care, estimates the system saves him 30 minutes or more a day. Just last week, he treated a couple in their 80s, each of whom needed refills on several medications they take daily.
Barravecchio said he also enjoys the color-coded tiered system that lets a physician know the cheapest of the effective medications selected — red means a non-preferred tier, which can be pricey, he said.
"If I see two scripts with the same benefits and one is red and one is green, I'll go with the green," he said. Barravecchio also fills mail-order prescriptions for patients with the e-prescribing system.
The prescriptions are transmitted through a secure Internet network to the pharmacy of the patient's choice through computers or a hand-held device. In many cases, physicians are also using electronic health records, which contain complete medical histories, lab reports and other documents vital to a patient's history.
On Saks' screen, it noted that Mendel Grossbaum had been treated for anemia and that he needed another vaccination. A click of a tab revealed the toddler's weight and height on a corresponding growth chart, which Saks shared with Zeesy Grossbaum.
If there's anything Saks has an objection to, it's holding a computer while he talks to parents. "It feels a little impersonal," he said.
But the tradeoff is the time advantage and having so much vital information at his fingertips. Multiply those advantages throughout the Tenafly Pediatrics practice — with 20 pediatricians in six offices writing a combined 2,000 prescriptions a week — and the savings in efficiency are even more remarkable, Saks said.
Additionally, Saks said the e-prescribing has helped alert him to errors he might have made in detecting allergies to certain medications.
"The system has caught me a few times," he said.
A study published last year in the Journal of General Internal Medicine revealed a nearly 85 percent decrease in medication errors when physicians switched from paper to e-prescribing. Researchers at Weill Cornell Medical College in New York found that physicians who switched to e-prescribing reduced prescription errors from 42.5 percent at the start of the study to 6.6 percent after a year.
Researchers looked at the number and severity of prescribing errors in more than 7,500 prescriptions, such as ordering medication but omitting the quantity, prescribing a drug to a patient with a known allergy, paperwork issues and injuries obtained from the medication.
In many states, e-prescribing is far more common — in Massachusetts, one out of every three prescribers files medication orders electronically.

Oddly, the current greatest fear as reflected in our moviegoing consciousness isn't of widespread terrorism or megaton catastrophe. Yes, large-scale disasters and toppling monuments are served up for our delectation as always; they're still making as many "Poseidon"s and "War of the Worlds"s as you can shake a stick at, and no matter how much contemporary trauma is writ large on them, they're still gonna be cut from the same genre cloth. No, currently, true horror and panic onscreen has been reduced to something far more individually tactile, yet at the same time, so far from our comprehension. Human trafficking, forced prostitution, people becoming unwitting participants in some kind of freakish underground secret ring of conspirators just waiting out there in the woods or some anonymous building complex--this is the new global terror, of paranoia and loss of control and individuality, yes, but even more so, that of global commodification. Lukas Moodysson's "Lilya 4 Ever" and Eli Roth's "Hostel," both repellent but awfully hard to shake, used melodrama and horror, respectively, to tap into this newly widespread anxiety, in which a human being seems as easy to purchase as a pair of beach clogs off of Amazon.com.
Like a crasser, palm-sweating, higher death-count version of Robert Bresson's "L'Argent," Gela Babluani's "13 (Tzameti)" furthers this trendy tendency by focusing, shrewdly, on monetary exchange (the last image on the screen before the opening titles begin is of a stack of bills being counted). The film's hapless protagonist, the 22-year-old Sebastien, played by the director's brother, Georges Babluani, will also invite simplistic Bressonian comparison, for his existentially vacant, handsome mien, yet as the film chugs along at a nicely engaging clip, his blank stares grows increasingly engaged, almost as if he's jolted into existence.
And jolted are we, as well. Sebastien is a repairman, living in an undisclosed location and class, but from the drab environs and sad eyes of his mother and siblings, we can ascertain a certain level of lower-middle-class struggle. When his current boss suddenly dies of an overdose, he overhears his wife discussing a secret envelope, the contents of which could lead to some sort of fortune. Thinking this could be the answer to his family's financial worries, Sebastien foolishly takes the envelope and embarks to an unknown destination. He finally discovers, and becomes trapped in, a sort of flesh trade, a terrifying underworld of professional gamblers who have seemingly found the ultimate betting game, while simultaneously upping the ante on any extreme sport or reality TV competition the world has ever known.
What he's caught up in here, along with us, is someone else's sense of morality; it's resonant because we feel it every day, in less extreme situations--it may not be our set of values, but it is our world, and there's no way out. "Hostel" boiled it down to the same old tourist xenophobia (and homophobia and misogyny), but Moodysson and now Babluani are onto something more valuable and tangible--an entrapment borne out of economic desperation. It's a credible portrait of a social mindset that seems at once alien and wholly familiar, and the Georgia-born and raised director has the well worked-out sense of daily toil and hardship that comes with witnessing a country's difficult transition from Soviet republic to independent nation.
Sebastien doesn't necessarily choose to participate in the horrific games he's roped into, yet once he is forced into competition, the pot of gold at rainbow's end increasingly becomes an attainable reality, and therefore a goal. Babluani's smart and swift little thriller could invite Kafka comparisons, but the reference is slightly off; though the thrust into a familiar yet unrecognizable world brings all the attendant fears of alienation, Kafka's psychological dimension is missing. As far as the game's other "players" go, we don't know where they came from, or what drove them to such extreme ends; we only get glimpses of wizened faces, intimations of tragic pasts. Likewise, never once do we get inside Sebastien's head -- he's only identified through action, not thought. And just as the world seems to be tightening the noose around his neck, he manages a grace note of redemption.
Rumor has it that "13 (Tzameti)" has been optioned for remake rights in the U.S.; yet one can't help but doubt that without Babluani's assured, modest approach, the narrative could easily devolve into gimmick, contrivance, and hyperbole. His technique is streamlined, delicately European, with none of the current suspense tactics that pass as "sophisticated," as those on Fox's "24" or in Paul Greengrass's "United 93" (the only moments of zooms and focus-shifts are motivated within the narrative). It's a masterful film debut, the kind of "big idea" movie that will undoubtedly grab the attention of the filmgoing community, but Babluani directs it with enough caution and craft to ensure that he has much more up his sleeve than one neat trick.

Take 2
By Justin Stewart
Shock value, it seems, remains the swiftest route to moviemaking success. Accruing buzz since taking home the World Cinema Grand Jury Prize at Sundance, this first feature by Georgian/French director Gela Babluani is already slated for a Babluani-helmed English-language remake. Its promise of seedy underworld violence and "extreme" brutality, garnished with pretensions of sociopolitical allegory, are its chief selling points. Its trailer, a barely edited chunk from the movie's most bracing scene, is mostly responsible for setting many Ain't It Cool-like sausage fingers keyboard-smooshing over this "sick new pic" that, despite being in black-and-white, simply "rocks." What separates "13 (Tzameti)" from quality current shock cinema like that of Takashi Miike is an indecent absence of humor and the drab, unearned weight of self-ascribed "importance"--precisely why a "Fight Club" comparison is far more apt than the M(elville) and B(resson) bombs dropped in promotions, based presumably on the most superficial of stylistic similiarites to the latter.
Here'd be a tricky challenge: make a movie revolving around a Russian roulette session that wasn't tense. Babluani's film cannot be denied its flinchy energy, but one has to ask how much of that comes bundled with the subject matter? Sebastien's train ride to an unknown location to do unknown things (he just knows that the ticket he filched from the freshly dead man's house he was working on might win money for his hungry family) make up the film's most riveting moments, as they promise a mysterious payoff for the baroque portent positively poured on from the beginning. But once the nasty game is made clear to us, "13 (Tzameti)" forfeits its only ace, as the answer to the only remaining question (Will Sebastien win?) seems certain. So we're stuck in a grimy basement full of sweaty participants and gambling onlookers (no doubt cast by Babluani for their wizened "art film" visages) waiting for the end of a game, and a series of John Woo gun-to-gun climaxes, that grew boring by the third round.

Take 3
By James Crawford
Though Gela Babluani's debut is lean, hard, and savage as a starved Doberman Pinscher, it's a film I might never have seen of my own accord, because Palm Pictures has been hawking "13 (Tzameti)" for months with an abysmal campaign. The trailer shows a circle of sweaty, fidgeting men loading revolvers with a single bullet, spinning the chamber, putting it up to the "game" participant in front of them, and pulling the trigger. It gives away the film's central premise without a mote of titillation, priming for an experience that is cold, unforgiving, and saturated with the oppressive nihilism found in "Requiem for a Dream." That is to say the trailer perfectly conveys the essence of Babluani's bleak vision; it's just not a particularly pleasant place to be.
After stumbling through the fog of its own knotty exposition, "13 (Tzameti)" settles into its stride in the abandoned manor--an airtight chamber of death where aging men prey upon the game's participants. As they bet on successive rounds, placing massive wagers on men who themselves have nothing to lose, the Russian roulette becomes a bottomed-out metaphor for sports, an indictment of the futility and folly of putting too much metaphysical stock (belief in fate and destiny) in what is a fundamentally meaningless pursuit. Though it boasts a tidy little conclusion, "13 (Tzameti)" would work better if the opening and conclusion were excised, and the lengthy middle sequence allowed to exist on its own as a hermetic metaphysical thriller. Babluani is an absolutely ferocious director with a superlative ability--let's call it an innate knack, in deference to his filmmaker-father, the redoubtable Temur Babluani--to stage unbearably taut spectacles of human suffering, creating the ultimate paradox: I couldn't watch, but I couldn't tear my eyes away.

My first real winter experience of the non-Asiatic kind was the winter of 1982. Although I had arrived in London on a cold January (1981) afternoon, I was pampered and kept away from the chilly outdoors and in the amazing warmth of central heating, another novelty for me. With no work experience of any kind at all, and purely by chance, I started work within three weeks of landing here. The director of the rather prestigious place I was offered work at was an Australian. I clearly remember sitting through the interview not understanding much of what the most amiable person was saying. My ears were only attuned to Pakistani spoken English or of course the World Service accent. I digress. By autumn 1981, I was familiar with things, had travelled on the tube but had not yet taken the bus. My husband would show me around the city, accompanying me everywhere. It was a magical time of my life.
In January 1982, a year in, I was fairly confident to find my way around certain areas. I wanted to get a surprise gift for my husband and the only way to do this was to take a day off work and go into town on public transport. I chose a random week day, knew it was cold, and so got suitably dressed. Not used to walking for shopping purposes at that stage, I was most careful to choose flat shoes. The plan was to be dropped off at a bus stop by a friend who would instruct me which bus to take.
As it happened, it snowed on the day. My first ever snow, so had no idea what to expect. It was deep too but I was blissfully ignorant for I had left home in a car and only realised this when was dropped off at the bus stop. My shoes were woefully inadequate. The wait at the bus stop grew longer and longer. Slowly but surely, people at the bus stop started drifting away, mumbling that the bus would not arrive. Indeed, after a long wait I too realised, with some horror, that the bus was not coming. So, what was I to do? Determined to get a gift for my husband I knew I had no choice but to get to my destination, in this case, Sloane Square. I knew the way. My husband had driven me over the bridge and into Kings Road many times, so I started walking. The bus stop I was on was not far from Battersea Bridge, and twenty seven years on it seems a reasonable walk, but I was from a different world at the time and I do not mean this in the physical sense, more psychological. So, from that perspective it was daunting to walk from Battersea to Sloane Square. However, my determination superseded any trepidation. So off I went over the bridge, enjoying the beautiful white cityscape, into Beaufort Street and then turned right for Kings Road. Ah, familiar Kings Road. My shoes were soaked by this time but the air was bracing and although exhausted, I was rather enjoying my adventure.
Apart from the fact that my feet were soaking wet and extremely cold I knew I could not enter any shop, let alone 'Peter Jones' with those shoes. Out on my own in fair London town for the very first time and what a venture it had turned into! Walking along I looked into shops for suitable footwear to buy. I do not suppose 'Kickers' were yet very big in the UK in 1982, but thank goodness for their shop in Kings Road that I saw and went into, explaining my sorry tale. They were most helpful and very soon I found the ideal footwear. Being American, Kickers had no Wellies in stock, but they had a wonderful pair of sturdy air-force blue rubber boots, fully fleece-lined. Just what I needed. Oh, the comfort of changing into the warm, lined boots and disposing off my soaked shoes in a rather funky (for the time) Kickers carrier bag. I remember feeling fantastically accomplished and I had not even reached Peter Jones yet. Anyway, that was not too far to go. Once there, it did not take me long to choose a suitable gift for my husband, my mission accomplished.
In the evening I presented the gift to my husband and told him the story of my high adventure. He was deeply touched but wondered why I had not simply taken a taxi. In those days Battersea was not the swanky place it now is and there were certainly no black cabs around. In any case, once I had started walking, I did not want to stop as I had begun to enjoy myself in spite of the poor footwear. It was a great way to find my way around the streets of London and indeed fend for myself. Thus was my initiation of being out in London by myself; it was like a beginner jumping in at the deep end but it was exhilarating.
Just as I finished writing I remembered I have kept the Kickers carrier bag, a souvenir of my going solo in London. In those days robust carrier bags were not the norm, so I re-cycled it numerous times, hence the battered look.
The boots served me excellently for several years. In fact, it is only a few years ago that I finally thought it was time for them to go.

Jennifer Lopez
Ben Affleck on Jennifer Lopez's Butt: "It Was Nice" (VIDEO)
Ever wondered what Ben Affleck thought of Jennifer Lopez's butt? Well, today is your lucky day! And let us just say, his answer is...rather underwhelming.
Vanity Fair has published an excerpt from Molly Bloom's new memoir, which details how a cocktail waitress ended up hosting private poker games for celebrities — and most importantly, has brought to light a secret we've all been dying to know.
"Ben showing up for my poker game was undeniably monumental," Bloom wrote in her memoir. "...but the butterflies I was feeling now were excitement that he was playing at my table, that he was a part of my game… He was tall and handsome, with a relaxed charisma that not all icons have in person."
According to Molly, Jennifer Lopez's best asset came up when another player, Rick Salomon, asked Ben, "Hey, yo, did Jennifer's a-- have cellulite on it, or was it nice?"
Ben's reply? "It was nice."
Well, we're sure Jennifer appreciates her ex's high praise.
Molly's memoir is full of juicy bits of gossip surrounding her poker games with celebrities and their alter egos at the table — but the worst? That would be Tobey Maguire, folks.
"Tobey was the worst tipper, the biggest winner, and the absolute worst loser," Molly claims, "but I had to worry about my job security if he lost."
What do you think about Molly's new memoir? Are you interested to see what other celebrities she discusses in her new book? Let us know below!

Final, Explosive The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Trailer Bares All Its Secrets
By Sean O'Connell 2 years ago comments
All the cards for Marc Webbs The Amazing Spider-Man 2 officially are on the table. If you have been paying close attention to every piece of footage that has been shared regarding this summers sequel, theres a very good chance that you have watched the film in its entirety. "Secrets have a cost," Sally Fields Aunt May warns Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield) as he tries to connect the dotted lines between OsCorp and his deceased parents. So why have any secrets? Lets put everything out there, especially in this final, action-soaked trailer that just arrived courtesy of Spideys official Facebook page.
OK, lets run down all of the amazing stuff (pun intended) that Webb tipped his hand to in this last tease. We can confirm that Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan) hasnt seen his childhood friend, Peter, in 10 years. The "Web design" line is pretty damn funny. We continue to learn that OsCorp is at the center of this grand conspiracy targeting Peter, as he has been "observed" by the evil corporation basically since his childhood. Spidey even makes one of those neat, visual charts on his wall to show that all of his problems can trace back to Norman Osborns company.
Ah, Norman. He actually shows up in a new TV spot for Webbs movie, this one hinting at a "Sinister" new era in Spider-Mans new cinematic history getting underway. Sinister. Get it?
Back to the full trailer, because there is plenty more to discuss. Richard Parker (Campbell Scott) reveals that OsCorp was going to use his genetic research to "change the world," as Harry states. We get visual confirmation that a souped up Electro (Jamie Foxx) will collaborate with Harry, who is going to go all Goblin. We see extended scenes of Spider-Man fighting the mech-Rhino who has machine guns sticking out of his suit! We get much better looks at Harrys Goblin suit and glider. We see more shots of Peter and Harrys fight. And if you look closely in the "Sinister" TV spot, you can see Harry dropping Gwen from a very high height. Trouble?
Of course, maybe you dont want to put all of these pieces together. Maybe you just want to enjoy the movie, for the first time, on May 2. We envy you.

Rob Duffy's departure provides a chance for King's Lynn Town's other strikers
06:30 04 March 2014
Archant © 2013
Gary Setchell is challenging King's Lynn Town's strikers to fill the void left by Rob Duffy's exit.
The Linnets' top scorer quit the club by mutual consent yesterday morning having spent just six months at The Walks. However, his former boss insists he has no interest in seeking a new frontman.
Setchell, whose men visit Wroxham tonight for a Norfolk Senior Cup semi-final, said: "I'm not going to bring in another striker. I'll give the other lads a chance. If anything I'm looking to bring in a defender. I spoke to Duffs and explained the situation. I feel in our remaining games I can have a look at our other striking options, while giving him the chance to find a new club before 'deadline day'. He's not the type of player I can afford to have sitting on the bench.
"He's a genuine lad who cared about the club and possesses a lot of qualities, it's just a shame it didn't work out how we'd have both hoped it would when he signed. This gives our other strikers the chance to stake a claim for the rest of this season and next."
Duffy, 31, who has struggled with injury problems for the last few years, scored 13 goals in 28 appearances. Seven of those strikes came from the penalty spot. His departure leaves Setchell left to choose from frontmen Massiah McDonald, Sam Mulready, Ewan Clarke and Charley Sanders – on loan from Boston United until the end of the campaign.

Childcare Funding
Working longer and longer hours is not good for business - or for you. Worrying about childcare will only add to your stress levels. Returning to work too soon or too long after the birth of your child, or after any major stressful event, is likely to take its toll in the end.
We all know how difficult it is to find a good childcare provider and how expensive it can be. We also know how hard it is for childcare providers to cover the costs of overheads to keep them open. This page has been designed to help childcare providers and parents in Wrexham County Borough access funding streams that are available to you.
Wrexham Family Information Service has funding to support childcare providers at risk of closure, to provide assisted places for children in need and a small pot of money to assist people wanting to become registered childminders.
The documents have been specifically designed to help childcare providers and parents to access funding streams and to explain what funders will support.
Accessing this funding can be a great benefit to a number of you as it can help keep your childcare businesses open, it can provide that much needed break for families experiencing difficulties and it can also provide children with a good quality childcare place which will improve their development.
If you need any assistance in accessing funding then we are also available to help you so please do not hesitate to contact us at Wrexham Family Information Service.

Oh, just Oprah and Justin Bieber being BFFs. Obviously.
It's not every day Justin Bieber gets starstruck (because let's face it… there's basically nobody more famous than him), but we gotta admit — the proud new hamster owner did look a little starry eyed standing next to Oprah. But then again, it's OPRAH, a gal on par with only the president and maybe Britney Spears. But that's about it.
Justin and Oprah met up in Chicago where he filmed a segment for her "Next Chapter" show, and though it's not confirmed, it's our professional opinion that Oprah wore a purple sweater in the Biebs' honor. In fact, we happen to think Oprah was a smidge starstruck herself, given that she tweeted all about her time with the Biebs: "Me and the Bieber just finished our interview. Good stuff! #NextChapter." (We kinda wonder what "good stuff" means…maybe he dished on his upcoming tour dates with The Wanted? If so, we're listening!) Honestly, we're super into The Biebs and Oprah being BFFs. I mean, it's not like either of them are gonna make any new normal people friends, so why not just go straight to the top of the famous-person hierarchy? Plus, if you've experienced a private jet, it's kinda hard to bond with people who haven't.

Local LDS members react to excommunication of fellow Mormon
PHOENIX - Controversy is following the LDS church after one of their own was excommunicated Monday.
Kate Kelly founded a group that promoted women in the priesthood. Some of her followers in the Valley had mixed reactions to the decision.
Jessica Steed is a proud Mormon living in the Valley. She's been in the church her whole life. She believes the response from the church was out of fear.
"At the level that she's at, with the way that the church has handled this, I'm not surprised that they went through with it," she comments.
Kelly founded the large women's group called Ordain Women.
Kelly has been a member of the LDS church since birth and she had been vocal about issues of equality in the church.
Other women who belong to the church feel similarly.
Steed says, "I was really proud of her for stating so publicly what we had thought quietly inside for years."
Steed herself founded a group called LDS WAVE promoting women's roles in the church.
She says, "I'm Mormon by my blood and my identity but I also believe in women's equality."
Excommunication is rare within the church. So Monday's decision sends a strong message, but some don't think it's the right one.
"There's got to be space for honest strong-believing questions…with people of faith," Steed adds.
Church leaders have argued that promoting women to priesthood is against one of the tenets of the faith.
And Steed says that makes sense "But Ordain Women isn't saying that everybody needs to believe that women should have the priesthood. They're asking our church leaders to pray and petition God."

Heidi Klum Talks About Pregnancy Weight Gain
September 09, 2009 11:00 AM by Britteny Elrick
Heidi Klum is almost ready to pop with her fourth child and she recently opened up to Page Six magazine about how huge she is getting! She complained that her thighs and butt are getting enormous. Oh gee, does this mean that this time it will take her three months instead of two to get back on the Victoria Secret runway?
"The last month is unbelievable, how rapidly your stomach goes. It's huge," Klum told Page Six magazine. "The thighs, the butt — everything explodes in the end."
"It's bizarre. Just as it's a miracle that you can grow a human being in your belly, it's a miracle that your body goes back to normal again," she added. "I don't think you ever get back to exactly the way you were, but you do get close. And I'm happy with that. Especially when you see your kid for the first time."
Heidi also gushed about her hubby Seal. "We're very into family values. If you come to our house in L.A., you'll see that it's not a big, museum-like house where you can't touch anything or sit anywhere. It's a family house, where three children [Leni, Henry, 4; and Johann, 3] are living. We have toys all over the place," she said.Â

text: Hello again ForgeHub. First off I would like to thank you guys for extending the life of Halo Reach for me and letting my discover how fun Forge is, then giving me an outlet to share my creations! If you dont follow my maps (you prob dont) then you will know I make then for the "FUN" factor. The tracks I make are meant to have just pure fun on. Usually they are against the regular stylings of a "race" map, or have a different from usual objective. That to me makes them fun and DL worthy. Keep in mind this map works BEST with the linked gametype due to Halo 3 gravity and indestructible vehicles! TO THE MAP! Monster Hogs: Now this is not your normal "Monster Truck" map. Whenever I think of a monster truck map, I think of crushing cars and getting air. Not a destruction derby setting!!!! SO this map will put you behind a Monster Hog. This could be considered a obstacle course as well? You spawn next to the Monster Hogs: Drive down to the first obstacle, where you can either take it at full speed, or at half like a real monster truck and pop over it. Hilarious fun! Next we get thrown into a series of random woops that will toss you around a bit and get you wheeling hard! This will take you to the "city" where for SOME ODD REASON, is being attacked by UFOs!!!?? (WTF) I know..... This is a series or falling fusion coils, dropping from UFO ships that will send you flying! This is probably the funnest part of the track. When my friends and I get bored we will just rally through the fusion coils then turn around and do it again. See how many times you can make it through without getting hit! Once you are out of that mess you will be greeted by a rock wall you must rally over then kit the table top jump, afther that you will find a line of mongoosen and ghost that we, as Monster Hogs, must CRUCH! Rally over those and make some more laps! Hope you guys enjoy! I try to make my map postings as informative and "picture full" as possible. If you ForgeHub vets have any advice LET ME KNOW! Thanks guys! Let me know what you think if you DL plz. Mao makers LOVE to know, good or bad.
