More than 10 bech-de-mer related robberies have been reported in Milne bay province since the opening of the season recently.
"Since the opening of the bech-de-mer season recently about 10-15 cases of bech-de-mer related robberies have been reported", said Acting Provincial Police Commander George Bayagau.
A/PPC Bayagau revealed that from the reported, police have acted swiftly to recover cash and stolen items.
Bayagau however stressed that there were many unreported cases, blaming it on the geographical locations were the incidents occurred as police could not reach in time.
He raised concerns and appealed to residents and locals to be wary of criminals as Police are still in search of 9 criminals who held up a vessel last month stealing bech-de-mer bags and cash.
"Forty-five 50kg bags of bech-de-mer were stolen worth K350, 000 including K7300 cash and mobile phones from the crew" he said.
He said the incident happened in Salamo when the criminals held up the captain armed with factory made guns.
Bayagau appealed to locals and residents stressing that criminals are not targeting cash only but bech-de-mer produces as well.
He added that buying and selling of bech-de-mer is to cease this month and appeals to everyone to consult police if need be for escort.

The Producer
Roberto Conterno took full control over the running of this famous estate just outside Monforte d'Alba, Piedmont, in 2003, when his father Giovanni Conterno passed away. Giovanni was the oldest son of the winery founder, Giacomo Conterno, and initially worked alongside his brother, Aldo Conterno. In 1969 the two sibling winemakers parted ways to create their own styles of Barolo.
Roberto continues to practice the traditional winemaking techniques of the area, producing long-lived, earthy wines. The focus has been strictly on nebbiolo and barbera since their freisa and dolcetto vines were grubbed up. Roberto also stresses the importance of organic viticulture especially in the early years of the vines' growth. The estate is most renowned for its great Barolos, Cascina Francia and Monfortino Riserva. The latter is produced only in the very best of vintages and aged at least 7 years in large oak 'botti'. This is regarded as one of the finest Barolos produced today and by many as the finest wine made from Nebbiolo in the world.
Roberto has recently introduced some small wooden 'fermentini' to further improve quality.
Other wines by this producer:
The Grape
Barbera is planted extensively in Piedmont and south-west Lombardy and accounts for over 50% of the wine produced in the region. The majority is sold simply as Barbera del Piemonte, but the best wines are the DOCs, Barbera d'Alba and Barbera d'Asti. It ripens late (after Dolcetto but before Nebbiolo).
The wines are usually ruby red in colour with notably low levels of tannins. They have a pronounced acidity that can be accentuated by overproduction. Barbera wines range from light, tart mouthwashers through to powerful, intensely flavoured wines that require extended cellaring.

Brockton Enterprise
EASTON, Mass (April 7, 2011) - As he was sitting out the 2009 college baseball season, Bryan Galligan could only wonder what the future held.
The Brockton resident had transferred from Franklin Pierce University, where he played on the junior varsity team in 2008, to Stonehill College and he wasn't sure if he would resume playing.
"When I'm sitting out there watching games and my friends are playing and I'm not playing, oh yeah, that was really frustrating," said Galligan, a right-handed pitcher. "I didn't know if I was going to be back. I didn't know if I was going to be able to compete. But it worked out."
Indeed it has worked out for the Brockton High School graduate, who was a member of the Post 35 American Legion team that won the 2007 Massachusetts championship.
Galligan joined the Stonehill program in the 2010 season, and after getting back in the swing of things on the mound that year, is putting it all together this spring.
In five starts, Galligan is 3-1 with a 1.51 earned run average and has 39 strikeouts in 35 2-3 innings for the Skyhawks (19-7).
Galligan, who plans to return to Stonehill for his final season of eligibility in 2012, has given up just six runs and 22 hits, and his lone loss was a 4-3 decision to Adelphi University on March 26.
After taking the '09 season off following the move from Franklin Pierce to Stonehill, Galligan was 3-1 with a 5.62 ERA last year. He struggled with control problems, walking 19 and striking out 23, and was not in the rotation at the end of the season.
Galligan pitched for the Augusta Nationals in the Great South League last summer and also worked with Stonehill pitching coach Nick SantaBarbara on a cut fastball. He returned to the Skyhawks last fall armed with another weapon and with more confidence.
"It was good to play (in Georgia)," said Galligan. "It was another wood bat league, so I liked that. It was kids from all over and the competition was real good. I think playing in a competitive league like that definitely helped me this year.
"I added a cutter to my pitches, so throwing my cut fastball has improved the way I can pitch. Our pitching coach really stressed trying to work on it. He thought that it would be a good pitch for me to throw.
"I feel it's helped me a lot because it's a pitch that I can control and it's a pitch I can control in any part of the count."
Galligan is getting ahead of hitters this season rather than running up his pitch count, as was the case last season.
He went eight innings and allowed one run with seven strikeouts in a no-decision against Felician on Feb. 26 and gave up no runs and two hits in a March 13 victory over Bentley. Galligan also defeated the Falcons on March 19, striking out nine and giving up two runs in 72/3 innings, and last Sunday, he shut down American International College, allowing two hits with 11 strikeouts in six innings.
"By the fifth inning last year, he was up to 110 pitches," said Stonehill coach Pat Boen. "Now he's ahead of guys and he's able to go deep into games. Last year, I thought he was a talented kid with a strong arm, but he was trying to overpower people. He was just a thrower.
"He had been out of baseball almost a year without a pitching coach. He's really throwing the cut fastball throws for strikes. He's not walking batters. Now he's getting ahead of hitters and become a pitcher, not a thrower."
Galligan spent three semesters at Franklin Pierce and said, "I liked it there, but I just wanted to play. I didn't see myself playing up there."
He returned to the Brockton area after looking at Stonehill and Suffolk University and is a business management major.
"At first, I was (disappointed after things not working out at Franklin Pierce), but once I transferred, I realized I could actually pitch in this league," said Galligan. "I'm really happy right now that I'm starting for another team."
Now, after sitting out in 2009 and gaining valuable experience a year ago, Galligan is part of a quality starting rotation for the Skyhawks.
"I was out of baseball for so long," said Galligan. "I felt like I lost my competitiveness. This year, I feel more comfortable on the mound. I feel more confident. Last year, I was just nervous to pitch. Last year, it didn't go so good. I can't explain it.
"Last year really, really motivated me for this year because I knew I could be way better than I was last year. I was kind of disappointed. I started during the season, but at the end of the season, I kind of fizzled out and had a few rough starts.
"Not pitching at the end of the season really motivated me. I just wanted to get to what I knew I could do."

Thai Food Cooking Class!
April 5, 2008 at 2:10 pm 8 comments
This past Thursday evening Alex surprised me with a Thai Cooking Class. I was very very excited! We both drool over Thai food and try to try as many Thai food restaurants in Austin as possible. I've never tried cooking it, I guess I was a little overwhelmed by the exotic ingredients involved and the cooking techniques.
The cooking class started at 6pm in South Austin at the instructor's house. When I learned it was at her house I felt that the evening could be a little awkward/strange or very intimate and rewarding. Jam, was our instructor's name and she's originally from Thailand and was completely welcoming of complete strangers into her home. There were five of us in all in the class and everyone was all very interested in learning all the correct names of the ingredients and how to prepare the amazing dishes!
On the menu was Coconut Soup with Chicken, Panang Curry, Pad Thai, and Sticky Rice with Mango. It was all so delicious and I was happy to be eating such fresh and vibrant ingredients such as galangal, lemongrass, banana blossoms, coconut milk, Thai basil, bean sprouts, and palm sugar (just a few of the unique ingredients I don't normally or EVER cook with! My personal favs of the night were definitely the Panang Curry and the Sticky Rice with Mango! I'll definitely refer to the recipes we left with and try to make at least those two! We were all offered a chance to help out with the cooking and I was able to make 4 of the 8 servings of Pad Thai in Jam's enormous wok!
Unfortunately, my camera was out of battery power so I wasn't able to take any pictures. However, I was able to grab a few beautiful pictures from Jam's personal blog! Also, Jam is becoming a small business owner as her and her husband are opening a Thai grocery store that provides cooking classes and pre-made meals, appropriately named Thai Fresh!
We can't wait 'til it opens so we can go down there to get the fresh ingredients for these wonderful recipes!

I never tried Thai cooking because the list of ingredients always seemed so intimidating, but I'm glad you got some inspiration!
Happy Birthday, ragazza!
Hi. Try this Thai cooking video website
It's got about 30 recipes each one with a cooking video to go along
We love Thai food…but havn't had any in Italy. There is a great Indian place here in Fiesole that's good though! I bet it's fun to learn how to do.
twin: yes the ingredients are very intimidating. you have to have access to an asian supermarket pretty much!
norris: thanks for the link, we'll definitely use that when we go to cook other thai recipes
erin: mmmmmm, indian food. i may even love that even more than thai :-)
i bet you can't wait to make these foods for some really cool dinner guests who also enjoy thai food :)
bk: true…….we just can't wait :-) however, we'd have to find a substitute for a few of the ingredients that aren't your friends (i.e. coconut milk)
lite coconut milk :)

A Different perspective
Ben Grant is an author and responsible for the Daily Overview, an Instagram account which started by showing aerial photographs of different places around the planet. The pictures are stunning on so many levels; above all else because of the perspective from which the pictures are taken, shedding new light on, and new understanding of, our world.
And perspective can play such an important role in our lives. It's easy to get caught up in our own models of the world, dividing life and experiences up into good, bad and indifferent, and a whole other range of terms and classifications. And, how often do we take the time to consider how that world looks through the eyes of another? What are we missing by only considering our own perspective? What might we want to do differently if we could take ourselves out of our own shoes and stand in those of another?
Just for a moment, then, take a step back. Think about a decision you recently made. Review that decision and ask yourself what others would have made of it. Put yourself in their shoes. Be bold. Challenge the decision from the perspectives of your best friend and your worst enemy. From your favourite superhero and your lifelong idol. From yourself 10 years ago and ten years from now. What would you do the same? And what would you do differently? And deep down, had you done this prior to making the decision, you know that you would have done something differently, wouldn't you?

The number one question we get asked, is "How can I hide my tummy"? The first thing...it's not all about the tops. There are other things you need to do besides wearing the right top to hide your tummy.
Some women (not me) are fortunate enough to have flat tummies. Whether it be from exercise, diet or good genes. This article is for those of us women over 40, women over 50, women over 60 and beyond, who need a little bit of help to cover your tummy and hide your muffin top.
- The first thing to do is start with the right underwear, it's important that they fit well or they will cause lumps and bumps in all the wrong places. If you wear shapewear, go for high waisted or a full body suit. Or even a well-fitted camisole will help.
- Wear a well-fitting pair of pants or a skirt. Again, high waisted is best. Low waist tends to emphasize our lumps and bumps. One thing is for sure, the tighter my pants...the bigger my muffin top. As much as we hate to do it, sizing up is the best way to go. Your shape will thank you for it.
- Stay away from tops that hit your midsection as that will draw the eyes to that exact spot. Wearing longer tops will draw the eyes past your tummy.

Updating textbox asynchronously
06-Dec-2017 15:51
To avoid this problem, you should create a new progress object each time you call Report.This is easy if your progress type is a value type (the compiler makes a copy of it for you).Despite this, the general patterns still apply even if you do not use a separate class to encapsulate the work, although I would argue that it is a good idea to use a separate class for any meaningful operation.Moving on, the tutorial will build on this tutorial, but will introduce new techniques, of which aren't tightly coupled to the Win Forms technology.JDK5 introduced the Executor Service class, which abstracts away the threading details, and gives us a nice interface which can be used to submit tasks for background processing.In this blog post I will describe the most important parts of creating a ZK app, which contains a background task that takes a string, and returns it in uppercase.Well, I responded to this thread made in the C# forum today about the standard cross thread communication issues that we have all faced when using multithreading in a GUI environment.
The examples are kept very very simple, but basic knowledge is still required So, what has brought this on?
Today, we'll look at how async methods satisfy a common requirement of background operations: reporting progress.

It is probably worth noting the ridgetop used to be bulldozed on a regular basis as a fire break; the landscape and soil isn't quite its normal self for 10-20 feet to either side. Get past the scraped earth to the original ridgetop and it's like someone flipped a switch; much more diverse and textured habitat. Meander a bit. That on top of the diversity you get from west (foggy coastal scrub) to east (sunnier grasslands).

The abandoned cooling tower of IM Power Plant in Belgium is huge and looks like a set from a Sci-Fi movie inside
The Belgians seem to quite like big cooling towers. Unlike the UK, where we build an array of smaller towers, on the continent they prefer a single huge tower at each plant. I have no idea why! But the huge towers make great locations for photography once they have been abandoned.
IM's hyperboloid cooling tower sits on the bank of the river, and the power station itself sits on the opposite bank. We didn't have time to visit the power plant, so we stopped off to visit just the tower. After climbing up the steps and entering the cavernous interior we grasped the full-scale of the structure. The water troughs were still there, where the hot water would have flowed after being pumped out of the large hole in the centre. It would have then flowed through the small gaps and fallen into the lake below. The water cools while falling, the heat creating a natural updraught through the tower, further aiding cooling and carrying the dispersed heat out of the top.
We then ventured underneath into the lower level. Noticing the rising water level filing the small, low-level entrance we made our way in and were in awe! The internal structure we had been on top of a few minutes before was now looking like something from a sci-fi film. Certainly the highlight of the visit.

My interest in tools comes from my old man. He had a tool box and in this were all the things he needed to be the man of the house. To have a set of tools, especially the right ones, makes me feel more prepared. I once experienced getting my card stuck in a cash machine and fortunately for me, this kind Swiss gentleman on vacation had a Swiss knife at hand of which he pulled out the card for me. That is what I call preparation.
I find the simplicity of the tool and engraving quite nice. The choice of type is quite nice considering that the tool is very modern.
I got the tool a few months back, having bought in Brooks for Norse Store. I felt it was essential to invest in the more 'gear and tools' part of the brand offering, especially living in a bike city. But above all it was the story of the tool that got me. It was in 1909 that Mr. Brooks and his son filed Patent No. 7709 for an adjustable spanner in the form of a smarter, simpler solution than that of a box set of spanners because who caries a tool box when cycling? This tool I have is a slight improvement on the one Mr. Brooks and his son originally created.
Like it says on the tin, the tool is perfect for wheel adjustments and changing inner tubes. This doesn't mean I experience punctures a lot, but it all comes back to the idea of preparation.
Having good things that last forever to me means money well invested, but I also enjoy the aging process. I quite enjoy rust, scratches staining and all other things that some may find offensive to the eye. These things tell the story of life.

Announcing LinkedIn's 3rd Annual State of Sales Report 2018
New LinkedIn report reveals how tech, marketing, and millennials are transforming the sales profession
October 16, 2018
As a sales professional, you've seen firsthand that sales is changing dramatically.
Your buyers expect personalized experiences and can see through cold or impersonal outreach. You're also navigating a more complex buying process that involves more people and distributed decision-making. Technology, and particularly sales automation, is bringing new levels of productivity to selling — but in today's climate, productivity alone isn't enough.
Relationships, built on a foundation of trust, are now more crucial to sales than ever. Sales professionals, particularly those from younger generations, are embracing new strategies such as marketing and sales orchestration, a sales approach that involves tighter collaboration between marketing and sales departments to better target prospects. Today's top-performing salespeople are working more closely with their marketing teams to target leads and are closing more deals as a result.
At LinkedIn, we're closely following the ways in which the modern sales landscape is changing. To be successful in modern sales, you need to build relationships at scale by tapping into advanced sales technology to engage with the right contacts faster, while fostering human connection and trust.
Our third annual LinkedIn State of Sales report explores this evolution from the point of view of B2B sales professionals and decision makers. Our research revealed some notable trends in the technologies and strategies that set top-performing salespeople apart, as well as the considerations that are most important to buyers today.
Read on for our biggest takeaways in this year's State of Sales report.
Sales technology helps to close deals, but it's ineffective without a human touch
Technology is helping sales professionals extend their impact by automating administrative tasks and gathering intelligence about prospects. It's no wonder that since our first survey in 2016, planned investment in sales technology has grown by 53 percent.
- 73 percent of sales professionals use technology to close more deals
- 97 percent report that sales technology is either important or very important to closing deals
While technology plays a significant role in modern sales, decision makers still want their purchasing experiences to feel personalized. They're more likely to engage with sales professionals who show they understand their needs and take a tailored approach to selling.
Decision makers say they're more likely to consider a brand's products or services if a sales professional
- Has a clear understanding of their business needs: 96 percent
- Provides personalized communications: 93 percent
Marketing and sales orchestration helps to close deals, but data silos remain
As more businesses pursue marketing and sales orchestration, sales professionals are starting to work more closely with marketing to target leads.
- 44 percent of sales professionals say they work more closely with marketing than in past years
- The number of sales professionals who say they work "very closely" or "closely" with marketing has grown 35 percent since 2016
Top sales performers (those who exceed their sales target by at least 25 percent) work more closely with marketing. On a scale from one to 10, 57 percent of top sellers rank the importance of working with marketing at an eight or higher, compared to 41 percent of their average counterparts.
However, data silos still stand in the way of successful orchestration. Just 20 percent of salespeople say there's a significant overlap in the data used by marketing and sales to target leads. This misalignment could explain why only 22 percent of sales professionals say leads from marketing are excellent.
Millennials tap into sales technology and marketing insights at higher rates
As we saw in our 2017 State of Sales survey, millennials (ages 21-38) tend to be early adopters of new strategies and technologies. While sales professionals across generations plan to spend more time in 2018 using sales technology than last year, millennials were the highest at 62 percent, compared to 56 percent of both Generation X and Baby Boomers.
Millennials are also more likely to bring together different tools as part of their modern sales technology stack:
- 56 percent of millennials are using collaboration tools such as Box, Google Docs, Microsoft Office and Dropbox, compared to 40 percent of Baby Boomers
- 39 percent of millennials use enterprise communication apps like Slack and Salesforce Chatter in their day-to-day role, compared to 15 percent of Baby Boomers
Without trust, fewer deals close
Since our first survey in 2016, we've seen that trust consistently influences deals. Sales professionals rank trust as the No. 1 factor in closing deals (40 percent) — above ROI and price. Fifty-one percent of decision makers rank trust as the top factor they desire in a salesperson.
Professional and social networks are helping sales professionals better understand buyers' needs and establish trust early on:
- 77 percent of decision makers won't engage with salespeople who don't have insights or knowledge of their business
- 62 percent look for an informative LinkedIn profile when deciding whether to work with a sales professional
What's next for modern sales?
While our profession is quickly changing, a few constants remain. Relationships are still the heart and soul of sales, and the most successful relationships are built on a foundation of mutual trust.
Technology is no substitute for human connection, and our State of Sales report shows that when used strategically, it can help bring you closer to who you want to reach. This approach, combined with marketing and sales orchestration, will help you better target prospects, personalize their experiences and build long-lasting relationships at scale.

We lost a lamb to what was almost certainly pneumonia overnight. He'd developed a terrible wheezing hack in his lungs last night, and was struggling to catch his breath. He hadn't seemed that bad earlier in the day, and I'd wanted to give him a chance to beat it on his own; the sudden nose-dive at 10pm caught me by surprise. I told Mrs Yeoman Farmer that I'd take him to the vet if he survived the night…but that has turned out not to be necessary.
Losing an animal as valuable as an Icelandic lamb is always a big disappointment, but the incident has led me to reflect on a couple of thoughts:
First, animal deaths have gotten much easier to take — and now cause much less emotional distress — than when we we first began farming. The very first animal we lost was a baby chick from our initial batch of broilers. MYF brought it inside when it was having trouble standing up, and we did everything we could to keep it going, but it just wasn't meant to survive. I remember feeling a sense of personal inadequacy, like I'd failed in some fundamental way. That sense of personal failure would grow more intense when we lost more valuable animals — like the time I fed what turned out to be poison hemlock to our baby goslings, and four of them keeled over dead in the brooder within minutes of each other. The worst of all was when we lost fully-grown sheep to worms or white muscle disease; these were mature breeding stock, and to see them go down was a big blow.
As time has passed, it's not so much that I've become calloused or hardened to the deaths of animals…but rather that I've grown to realize that unexpected deaths are simply a natural part of life on a farm. We certainly work to take good care of the animals, and don't neglect them, but sometimes deaths still occur despite our best efforts. It isn't a personal statement about us, and I've grown to learn not to take it personally. Instead, this morning, I turned to the 13 healthy lambs and gave thanks that we still have so many — and that this is the first lamb we've lost in well over a year.
Which brings me to the second point: We have lost far fewer lambs in Michigan than we did in Illinois. And we haven't lost a single mature sheep here, whereas we lost a few of them in Illinois. MYF and I were discussing this, and we think there are three main reasons:
- Hard Water. In Illinois, we didn't have water pipes leading out to the pasture. Unless we ran three long sections of hose from the house to a stock tank (a huge hassle to do every day), we had to rely on rain water for the sheep. We collected plenty of rainwater off the barn, stored it in an enormous water tank, and released it into the sheep stock tank as needed. We realize now that this ultra-soft water may have been fine for watering a vineyard or supplying poultry water, but the larger mammals would've benefited from the iron and other trace minerals in well water. Here in MI, our water is very high in iron, and we have pipes in the barn. Pretty much all the water our sheep and goats drink comes from that well. Not surprisingly, we haven't had a single case of anemia here — whereas in Illinois we lost many lambs that way.
- Mineral. Here in Michigan, the sheep come into a nice secured barn every night; in Illinois, they'd had more simple pasture shelters. It had been very difficult to ensure a steady supply of supplemental mineral. Here, they have a mineral feeder in the barn that never gets rained on and never gets knocked over, and I keep an eye on it every morning — and am constantly filling it. I am buying much more mineral here than in IL, which is a good thing — it tells me that we weren't using nearly enough of it before. I'm convinced it's contributed greatly to our flock's overall health.
- Pasture. We have a much larger grazing area here for the sheep, and the grass is much longer. In Illinois, they'd eaten it down so low, they were constantly grazing in their own droppings as they looked for fresh grass. Here, they have lots of long grass and leafy brush to feast on, so they're never ingesting parasites that may have passed through their droppings. This leads to the parasite chain being broken or at least greatly weakened.
Farming and animal husbandry are a constant learning process, and require frequent adjustments. Often, it's trial and error (and experiences of failure) that are the best teachers. The lamb we lost overnight will almost certainly not be our last, but I'm trying to keep the focus on how far we've come and how much healthier our flock is now…and what practices will help keep us on that upward trajectory.

Chlorogenic acid has many properties. In one study, chlorogenic acid has been shown to reduce the absorption of sugar, helping people struggling with diabetes, which is also a good remedy for weight loss. What are the effects of chlorogenic acid? What can be the side effects of its use? What are the natural sources of chlorogenic acid? Are the products with chlorogenic acid offered by the pharmacy always full-value? What is the price of chlorogenic acid?
Chlorogenic acid is also a caffeoylquinic acid, in short CGA, as well as green coffee extract. It has many properties, among which the slimming properties are best known.
Chlorogenic acid and slimming
Are chlorogenic acid good for slimming? Some people argue that chlorogenic acid reduces the amount of sugar absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract, which leads to compelling the body to use the previously accumulated stores, thus helping to lose weight.
The slimming properties of chlorogenic acid are proved by, among others, clinical studies of Norwegian scientists, which were carried out on 12 healthy volunteers.It was given soluble coffee enriched with chlorogenic acid. It turned out that it caused a reduction in glucose absorption by 6.9% compared to with a group of control.
Chlorogenic acid reduces the absorption of sugar from the gastrointestinal tract and improves the sensitivity of tissues to insulin.
The second, comparative, randomized, double-blind, 12-week study investigated the effect of chlorogenic acid on body weight of 30 overweight people, divided into two groups: one that was soluble with chlorogenic acid and the other with no added compound. The average loss of body weight in the group that was taking chlorogenic acid was 5.4 kg, and in the group that took normal coffee – 1.7 kg.6
'The researchers concluded that soluble coffee enriched with chlorogenic acid seems to have a significant impact on the absorption and utilization of glucose from the diet, an effect that – if coffee is used for a long time – can reduce weight and body fat.'
However, it is not possible to draw too broad conclusions based on a study that concerned such a small number of participants, and the doctors also pay attention to the high amount of caffeine contained in the green coffee extract. The slimming substance is caffeine or chlorogenic acid It is also not known whether the slimming effect is permanent.It seems that after discontinuation of chlorogenic acid may lead to a re-increase in body weight, or yo-yo effect.
You can risk saying that chlorogenic acid as a dietary supplement can help reduce body weight if you modify your diet at the same time, but it can not be ruled out that your body will regain weight again after stopping this compound.
Chlorogenic acid and diabetes
Chlorogenic acid lowers blood sugar, so it can be used by people struggling with diabetes. This is the result of research by scientists from the University of Scranton in Pennsylvania (USA) .3
Participants (both men and women) of normal weight who did not have diabetes were given daily from 100 mg to 400 mg of extract in a water capsule, and then tested for glucose tolerance. At the end of the study, tests showed that the extract green coffee effectively reduced the blood sugar level in each participant.
Those who took the largest dose – 400 mg, experienced the greatest decrease in blood glucose, although all doses caused a significant reduction in blood sugar.
If chlorogenic acid can affect the level of glucose in a normal person, it should work even better for diabetics, because they have a problem, said study author Joe Vinson.
The researchers also noticed that they noticed that participants who consumed this green coffee extract for 22 weeks lost about 10% of body weight.

It's only June 14th, the middle of the month, and I am already over budget on most of my variable spending costs by $640.96. Most of my monthly expenses remain the same, such as utilities, internet, sanitation etc. The variables, such as food, gas, medical needs, clothing, entertainment and meals out, however, fluctuate, so I need to watch these closely. I set up a panel in Excel, with an estimated expectation of costs for the month listed on top, with the actual expenditures listed at the bottom of the column. As you can see from this spreadsheet, my monthly costs are estimated to be $1050 for my variables but I already spent $1690.96. I am clearly over-budget already. What's a girl to do?
(click on image to enlarge)
My monthly food bill is $400. I usually hit that mark but lately I haven't been so lucky. That's because we want to eat better quality meats, fruits and veggies than before. I've decided to cease all future expenditures in this category and just start depleting what we already have in our pantry and freezer. Other than necessities such as milk, salad and bread, I don't see us spending more than $50 more in this category for the rest of the month.
One of the biggest expenditures we spent this month so far was for propane. That's how we heat our hot water and the home. The price of a gallon of propane has skyrocketed. So, I'm cutting back on baths (to no more than one a week) and we use an electric heater on those chilly nights (electricity here is cheaper than propane).
We usually buy our grain-free dog food at Aldi, but its been discontinued. That means we have to pay more for the same product somewhere else. It's a non-negotiable item. We just have to pay, so I will need to up that category to $30 from $25.
Gas prices have gone up to over $3.00 a gallon here. To adjust, we stopped using our gas-guzzling car (Citadel-strictly used from here on in for towing the RV only) and now use our fuel-efficient car that gets 40MPG instead for everything else.
We're almost double in our entertainment and meals-out category! One of the biggest budget buster was taking my daughter and granddaughter out for brunch @$79. Daughter was all set to pay half the bill BUT DH insisted he treat everyone. I told DH right there in the restaurant that we couldn't afford to pick up the tab for everyone but he paid for it anyway. Not a good thing. Naturally, the future remedy for the rest of the month is no more eating out.
Repair, maintenance and runs to Wal Mart are sorta of under control now. We had a bunch of projects we wanted to accomplish this year BUT as prices started escalating (we spent $3204 so far!) we had to postpone one project, putting in an automatic generator ($2500), till next year. Combined with also doing some interior painting next year, we'll buy and install the generator next summer.
Our medical costs and co-pays have gone up substantially and that's all because of me. I know I've mentioned that I don't like to talk about health problems but I have been very ill since February 2018. If you have been following my blog, you will know that last year, because of two very selfish and horrific neighbors, my Florida condo was engulfed almost nightly in second-hand smoke. No mater what we did, including speaking to our neighbors and contacting the Florida Board of Health, no amicable resolution could be ascertained. Three middle-of-the night trips to the ER convinced me, quite reluctantly I must add, that selling the condo was the only way out for me. My health was deteriorating, and without getting into specifics, my lungs have been greatly affected. I have been coughing steadily for five whole months! with no end in sight. I've been to every kind of doctor on the planet with no resolution. They can't stop my coughing which has metastasized into variable fits of uncontrollable coughing over the many, many months I've been seeking treatment. I cough so strongly now that I almost always vomit up my previous meal. It's not been a pretty picture.
Thankfully Medicare and my supplemental insurance plus Plan D RX have been covering almost everything. The newest drugs, however, are not covered. One RX cost me $51 per month and the other is $43. Combined with my other drugs and co-pays, its costing me upwards of $100 a month. Throw in DH's heart problems and you can see where this is going: UP. This is the part they always talk about in retirement planning: rising medical costs as you age. Whatever they say, its true.
Next is our clothing category. Back in Florida we lived near a Goodwill, that was in a super rich neighborhood and the pickings were fantastic! DH and I were the best, dressed second-handers on the face of the earth. LOL! But now, back in New York, the closest Goodwill to us is in a very poor neighborhood and the pickins are very, very slim. This means that we now have to buy our clothes (gulp!) R.E.T.A.I.L. Ugh!
DH now buys his work pants at Wal Mart, for $11.97 for the Rustler brand. We couldn't find a good deal on cargo pants anywhere. Old Navy wanted $35, and even with a 20% off coupon, we were looking at a $28 price tag! The best deal we found was back at Wal Mart for the Wrangler brand at $19.97.
DH also needed a new pair of walking shoes. We both seem to love, love, love Sketchers. We stopped at a local, discount chain DSW on Monday. DH found a pair he liked at $59.99 (that"s $60 folks). At the store we searched for the same pair online and found a better deal. I asked the cashier to match the price. She said they don't match online stores. That's too bad. because we found the same shoe for $44 at Zappos.com. We went home, went online and DH ordered the same exact pair and paid the $44, thus saving himself from spending $16 more! Shipping was free and by 10AM on Tuesday morning, the very next day, DH's shoes arrived and he started wearing them immediately.
DH and I are starting to love this online shopping more and more. As long as free shipping is involved, it's a win-win situation for us. I bought ALL my furniture and RV mattress at Wayfair.com and I couldn't be happier with both the price and quality. Customer service is king! If shopping at online stores are going to save us money, then we will continue to do so in order to reign in costs so we can keep up with inflation.
Lastly, is our travel category. Since we are retired, we can vacation in the off-season. That means taking a vacation before July 4th and after Labor Day this year, when prices drop, which is what we will be doing this year. We'll be enjoying staycation adventures for the months of July and August (while we save up money for the real thing).
All of the above, however, does not solve nor address our additional $640.96 in our every day costs. How are we going to solve this 'problem' which appears to be ongoing? Granted, yes, a few tweeks we make will lower next months outgo but what can we do immediately to pay this off when we are on a fixed income? DH made a few phone calls. Located some day work and will put in two days this month (@$350 a day) and pay off our added expenses. He said he can probably do this easily every month. For us, keeping up with inflation will be a combination of several measures:
- Reduce costs
- Increase income
- Invest wiser
- Seek alternative methods (more DIY)
- Simply do without

First stop is Northland which is "teeming with artists" as the pair encounter corrugated iron sculptor Jeff Thomson, potter Richard Parker, the iconic Hundertwasser toilets in Kawakawa, Manos Nathan who fuses traditional Maori design and ceramics, and Zealandia — Terry Stringer's remarkable and "beautifully coiffeured" sculpture garden, studio and home.
If you want to go deep, it's there. If you don't want to, you can just say 'I like what you can do with corrugated iron'.– Douglas Lloyd-Jenkins on Jeff Thomson's sculpture
Made with funding from NZ On Air

A few testimonials from satisfied customers
Matthew Greenhalgh was highly recommended to me by others on Facebook. He has dealt with my rat problem thoroughly, speedily and with utmost professionalism. It wasn't an easy task as they'd burrowed beneath the garden and had tunnels all over the place but Matt wasn't fazed and sought advice where it was complex. He's also blocked off my air bricks so mice can't enter the house through that access too. Friendly, polite and helpful – would always recommend .. and there are a lot of people I know who have similar problems living in the country. Top Man!
Matthew attended site as planned at the time given and gave us a A1 service
So happy that I have recommended him to other people
Very competitive on price
Thank you
Have just used Matt and cannot rate highly enough. Quick, efficient and absolutely professional. Will definitely use again and would recommend to everyone.
Fantastic service on a difficult sensitive site. Huge care taken over resident wildlife as well. Matt communicates and checks well beyond the call of duty. Can't recommend him highly enough.

The human hand is a thing of wonder. While we typically take our hands for granted, they are the most flexible part of our body. From our fingertips, that the temperature of even a single grain of sand, to a revolving joint as complex as our wrist, our hands are an often overlooked source of amazement.
Our hands are not only functional, because of the practical purposes they fulfill, they are also always on display. When our hands are injured by accident or through disease, they typically become a great source of pain and sorrow.
Arthritis, for example, can strike any joint in the body and is particularly noticeable and vexing when it impacts the fingers, thumbs, or wrist. Losing the ability to turn a key is frustrating; being incapable of holding a baby or a loved one's hand produces a qualitatively different kind of pain.
An Orthopeadic Assoiciates hand surgeon can treat a wide variety of concerns such as pain associated with tennis elbow or unsightly cysts in the palm. Hand surgeons often treat gnarled hands, fractures to the bones, or strains to the ligaments.
Diseases that slow or stop blood circulation, conditions that stiffen fingers, wrists, and elbows, and injuries to the nerves that work our muscles are all common concerns. Our active lives demand a great deal from our joints, which can suffer as a result. Arthroscopic surgery can repair many conditions with much less pain and faster recovery times than was previously possible. Many of our patients, in fact, report full recovery of function in their hands and freedom from previously debilitating pain.
In summary, for individuals who feel like their quality of life is suffering because of the aforementioned concerns and report reduced function in their fingers, wrists, hands, or elbows, a consultation with a qualified hand doctor is their first necessary step towards recovery.
Our site is very informational and covers a wide variety of problems and treatments of the hand and arm including carpal tunnel syndrome, hand tumors, trigger finger, hand numbness, arthritis, hand and wrist nerve injury, cubital tunnel release, infection and a whole lot more. For additional information, please visit the American Society for Surgery of the Hand website.

Alton Towers Resort have today submitted plans to refresh the Courtyard area of Mutiny Bay which, if given the go ahead, will see a new food and beverage offering in the area to compliment the opening of SW8 which is due to open next season.
In the plans submitted to Staffordshire Moorlands District Council, it is proposed to remove the existing servery, which previously functioned as the Courtyard Barbeque up until its closure at the end of the 2015 season. Instead, a new servery will be created to the rear of what is currently the Courtyard Tavern, adjacent to the existing kitchen area. In order to create what is described as 'new duel access', the Resort will reinstate a currently bricked up opening. This will mean that guests can still access the bar area of the Tavern from both sides of the building, whilst the new food and beverage unit will only have access from the Courtyard side.
In the Courtyard area itself, the central canopy is set to be replaced with a new canopy in the same design. The area covered by the canopy will also be surrounded by a new glass railing system enclosing the area and giving it some extra protection from the elements. As well as the former Courtyard Barbeque servery being removed, the plans also indicate the removal of the smaller canopy as well as the stripping out of the stage which used to be home to The Pirates of Mutiny Bay suggesting that their swashbuckling adventures may finally be at an end.
The proposals also detail a number of improvements to the fabric of the main building itself. All of the existing modern doors will be replaced with timber vertically boarded doors; a number of windows will be repaired or replaced; whilst several areas of brickwork will be repaired using salvaged brick to match the existing structure.
Although the plans do not state exactly what the new food and beverage offering will be, several of the documents refer to the development as a 'Smokehouse Restaurant' suggesting that the Resort may be planning to offer something similar to the Smokehouse at Chessington World of Adventures Resort.

Yes, we said Holiday. Wait! Before you do this:
Read this:
Okay, we know it's only September, and we know that feeling of nausea we all get when we hear holiday music in fall. We get it, it's too early, and we want to hold on to thoughts of summer break, but did you know that most people start their holiday shopping in September? It makes sense if you think about it, there are a lot of reasons to start the holiday shopping as early as possible. The only reason you don't want to start shopping too early (like May) is that wants and trends change. Moreover, if the anticipation gets the better of you, you may give in and give the gift early. Fall is the perfect time, because it gives you enough time to shop at your convenience, and it gives you an insight into what's cool at school this year.
Six Reasons to Start Your Holiday Shopping in September:
"If it weren't for the last minute, nothing would get done."― Rita Mae Brown
- You'll Save Time – With more time and less people, you'll be able to shop like it's any other day of the year (because it is). Avoid long lines, volcanically hot stores, and grumpy people by shopping months ahead of the 'crazy season'.
- You'll Minimize Stress – This ties in with the above points; there's nothing more frustrating than shopping for fifteen minutes, only to wait in line for forty-five.
- You'll Choose Better Gifts – You'll have a wider selection and more time to decide. This results in better, more thoughtful gifts
- You'll Earn Bragging Rights – When someone invites you shopping, you'll have the rewarding experience of saying "I'm already done!"
- You'll Protect your Income – Wouldn't it be better to spread your holiday budget over four months instead of four weeks?
Okay, so you're ready to go shopping, but what if you have no idea what is "big" with kids this year? Stuffable animals are always safe, but for a few more ideas, check out this infographic below!

Join The Cormany Community—Why Wait?
I know it seems too good to be true but… it's true! You can change your life, just like thousands of our community members have changed theirs. Think about this scenario: In a perfect world, my average day would look like this… (You fill in the blank) What's keeping you from making it happen? Time? Money? A game plan? You can make a change today that will help you make your perfect day a reality. I know, because I did!
I never imagined that, one day, Josh and I would be among the top earners in a network marketing company… but that's exactly what happened. And I never dreamed we'd be in a position to lead a community of entrepreneurs on their own journeys, but here we are. Early in our careers, I was a research specialist and Josh was a banker. And then I became a Mom. Like many other Moms, I wanted to be home with my kids, but still use my brain and make an income to help support our family. I wanted to be my own boss so I experimented with a few different business ideas… and then I discovered a "virtual franchise" opportunity that would enable me to leverage a skincare mega-brand to grow my own micro-business. That one decision to believe in myself and go "all in" drastically changed our family's lives in so many positive ways, and now we want to focus on helping others do the same. That's what The Cormany Community is all about.
Need some inspiration? Check out a few of the success stories from our Cormany Community. From musicians and nurses to teachers and work-from-home Moms, members of our diverse community have gone from living paycheck-to-paycheck to having the means to give more time and money to their families, churches, charities and communities than they ever dreamed possible. You can too!
*This is my unique story; for information regarding typical results, search Rodan + Fields IDS.
Now is the time to build a foundation to make your dreams come true. Create a virtual franchise and your own economic stimulus package that enables you to have a successful career that fits in around the rest of your life. Your company, your priorities, your story. And an entire community to back you up.
We look forward to helping you succeed!

Al-Hol Camp on the basis of the decision reached by Autonomous Administration with the camp administration on the return of the people to homes from the northern regions of the country, and eastern Syria most of them are women and children who wish to return home.
On the registration process and the preparation of the families who registered to return them to their cities and villages in the cities of al-Raqqa and Tabqa, the co-chair of the camps of Al-Hasakah Majda Amin said in a telephone call to ANHA agency that "the doors of the registration offices are open to the people of the cities of al-Raqqa and al-Tabqa, This week, our offices registered 410 families from these two cities. We are currently working on the first batch of those wishing to return on Thursday in the 30th of this month. "
The decision to repatriate displaced persons from northern and eastern Syria to women and children was made on the basis of the visit by the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria to al-Hol Camp on Thursday, May 23, which was based on the results of the clan forum held in Ain Issa to discuss the issue of the return of displaced women and children to their homes .
The tribal leaders described the move as a positive step towards the return of displaced people to their homes, stressing that it is a sign of tolerance and love among the region's components. They also hailed the decision to give Syrian displaced people and Iraqi a new life.
