Since April, the Giants have been the top two in the Western Division of the National League and have ended June in the top three of overall MLB standings. So far, the Giants have had series sweeps over the Chicago Cubs and their most recent series against their biggest rival, the Los Angeles Dodgers. Although only being halfway through the season, the Giants have high goals and exceptions to finish the 2012 season on top.
The San Francisco Giants have quite a remarkable history. They hold the number one spot for winning the most games of any team in the history of American baseball and of any North American professional sports team! They have won a total of six World Series Championships, which makes them the number two team with the most championships won in MLB National League history. Nothing is stopping them from continuing to make and break records.... This season, Giants right hand pitcher, Matt Cain, pitched the first perfect game in franchise history against the Houston Astros!
The San Francisco Giants are on a roll this 2012 season, and you don't want to miss out on any of the games! Gold Coast Tickets has the best deals and selection of tickets on San Francisco Giants Tickets!

Nina Ricci - Paris Fall 2009
View Gallery
(PARIS) Olivier Theyskens' brand of impressionism isn't easily forgettable, and in what is widely believed to be his final collection for Nina Ricci, he made his case. This is unparalleled creativity that refuses to fret over bottom-line mentality, and it showed. (One well-informed insider estimated the sample collection to have cost upwards of a million Euros.) From the first glimpse at those hoof-like platforms, the models glided by like Tim Burton characters dressed marvelously in clothing unlike anything else out there. The evening gowns showcased Theyskens' genius most brilliantly, with whorls and boning and endless drama fit for a dark, dark queen. Whatever happens next, the fashion world can't stop watching.

Note: The SEO Starter Guide has since been updated.
Our Search Engine Optimization Starter Guide covers around a dozen common areas that webmasters might consider optimizing. We felt that these areas (like improving title and description meta tags, URL structure, site navigation, content creation, anchor text, and more) would apply to webmasters of all experience levels and sites of all sizes and types. Throughout the guide, we also worked in many illustrations, pitfalls to avoid, and links to other resources that help expand our explanation of the topics. We plan on updating the guide at regular intervals with new optimization suggestions and to keep the technical advice current.
So, the next time we get the question, "I'm new to SEO, how do I improve my site?", we can say, "Well, here's a list of best practices that we use inside Google that you might want to check out."

Runway Reviews: Sonia Rykiel, Jasmine di Milo
Getty Images View Gallery
(PARIS) Sonia Rykiel
With giant knit pom-poms on their heads and platform clogs on their feet, the models at Sonia Rykiel had plenty reason to feel good. The collection was focused on knitwear, from peek-a-boo sweaters to chunky ribbed caridgans, and it was all stuff that women want to be wearing right this very minute. In a subdued palette of blush, nude, and beige, the looks ranged from an oversized menswear suit in wool felt to a long, snuggly red wool trench in bright red. Several drab jumpsuits with trompe l'oeil transparencies were jazzed-up with cargo-esque pockets. Equally fun? The final series of maribou-feather frocks the models wore while parading en masse down the runway, singing along to Nirvana's "Come As You Are."
Jasmine di Milo
Jasmine Al Fayed was once known as a designer for strictly party girls--you know, like her sister Camilla Al Fayed. But each season, Al Fayed's evolution becomes increasingly interesting, and for Fall, she dared to move beyond straightforward cocktail frocks and offer more modern interpretations of this way of dressing. An imperial blue velvet kaftan, featuring burned-out velvet detail, was a fine example. But a black minidress made of scores of tacked-on puzzle pieces (the collection was themed "The Puzzle Factory") proved how this designer's skills have evolved, and as she dabbles in daywear (via a burgundy wrap dress, grey leather bomber and a fur or two), the editorial crowd will be watching.

Hey, have you heard? Prince Will and Kate Middleton are getting married! It's crazy how no one is talking about it.
Clearly, we jest. We're as obsessed with the royals as the next palatial interloper. In today's video, we team up with NYC-based milliner and all-around cool lady Eugenia Kim to craft a beautiful headpiece (perfect for 5 a.m. viewing parties).
You can buy all the supplies at any craft store for about $20. Feel free to use your favorite colors, fake flowers, and feathers — or even sub a headband for the clip.
We also asked Kim for her take on a Kentucky Derby hat. All you need is your favorite silk scarf, scissors, and a wide-brim straw hat. Don't have the latter? We just bought one on the street in Soho for $15.
No joke.
Too scared to DIY? Check out our Roundup of 62 headpieces that make us swoon. For more information on Kim (or to buy one of her gorgeous hats), go to eugeniakim.com.

Racing Through the Dark
Crash. Burn. Coming Clean. Coming Back.
As a young Scottish expat living in Hong Kong with his father after his parents' divorce, Millar showed early promise with mountain biking and BMX. Two wise local cyclists took him under their wings, encouraging him to concentrate on road racing. Millar proved a ready convert. Racing Through the Dark offers the winning account of his climb through the ranks—first as an amateur and then as a pro, riding for the French team Cofidis. Among his early triumphs were several stage wins in the Tour de France.
From the moment Millar turned pro, he began to see hints of the unethical measures that many— maybe most—of the other pros were taking in order to race at the very tops of their games . . . and beyond. At first, he felt that he was immune to temptation, that he could win clean. But the ugly pervasiveness of performance-enhancing drugs and the seemingly universal attitude that condoned it began to corrode his willpower. Racing Through the Dark details his eventual capitulation, his subsequent arrest and two-year ban from cycling, and his remarkable comeback as a clean cyclist who is now doing his utmost to keep performance-enhancing drugs out of the sport he so loves.
Filled with thrilling descriptions of the world's most spectacular courses, Racing Through the Dark captures the pure joy of cycling and includes some of the most vivid accounts of racing ever written by a true insider.

Read an Excerpt
Life is about making decisions, and my relationship with David Millar has informed some of the toughest and most critical decisions in my career. Looking back, his experience has also been pivotal in fueling my passionate belief in clean sport.
I first crossed paths with David in 2002 at the World Road Championships in Belgium. I was working as performance director to Team GB, and he was riding for the British team. It was clear from the outset that he was different from any other bike rider I'd met before. Hugely talented, ambitious, and extroverted, Dave was a thoroughbred.
He was intelligent and strong-willed,... see more
My Early Years
Even though I was born in Malta—for those who need to know, on January 4, 1977—I have always thought of myself as a Scot.
My parents, Gordon and Avril, left the island when I was eleven months old and returned to Scotland. This was a homecoming, a return from abroad to our brethren. Yet because my father was in the Royal Air Force and subject to their postings, it wasn't really his choice where we ended up.
We lived in Forres. My earliest memories are of a housing estate, a school bus—with a metal bar across the top of the seat in front of me that I'd try to bite... see more

Unlike a spread on a football game where one team is getting a certain amount of points (ex. Saints +7), in MMA fights the line on the game is what's called a money line. So for a MMA fight you might see the following odds on a fight…
Georges St. Pierre (-245)
Thiago Alves (+185)
In this fight, GSP would be the favorite and at -245 it means for every $2.45 you bet, you will win $1 if he wins the fight. So if you bet $245 on GSP and he wins, you'd profit $100. If GSP were to lose though, you'd lose the full $245. If you were to bet on Thiago Alves at +185, you would would win $1.85 for every $1 you bet. So if you bet $100 on Thiago and he wins the fight, you will profit $185. If Thiago were to lose the fight, you'd lose your original $100 bet. "From mmaodds.com"

ivan_zanev's "1001 things to do before you die"
This is the original list of 1001 things I believe everyone should do.
From babies to extreme sports, films to books, the things you never thought of and the things you always wanted to do, these are the things that could complete a life.
If you complete all these things you can not just change your life, but the life of others through the many inspirational goals, the challenging goals and the goals that will make everyone laugh.
There are so many goals here that can help shape the world…sponser a child for example. If everyone doing this list sponsers a child, thats a new bunch of children that will be educated, have food, fresh water and more. If everyone gives blood that could be one more life saved, that wouldnt have been saved if it hadn't of happened.
If everyone becomes an organ doner thats an aweful lot of people saved.
So you see, this list isn't just going to affect you, it is going to affect the people around you, the community you live in and the world.
Love a little, live a little and take this list, fulfill as much of it as you can, if not all of it and have FUN, because life isn't going to be worth living if you dont have fun.

Teaching Methods Used in Library School
27/01/2012 § 19 Comments
Since I was a high school teacher before I started library school, I'm finding it really hard to switch off my "teacher brain" even well into my second semester. This makes sense, considering that I want to become a teacher-librarian. However, it has also had an unintended side effect: I spend all of my time in class imagining how I would teach the course.
Hopefully this is the universe's way of telling me that yes, school librarianship is my ultimate purpose here on earth. But it's also led me to give a lot of thought to the teaching methods used in library school, not to mention experience a lot of frustration when those methods are antiquated. Librarianship is a field that lends itself naturally to self-directed inquiry, collaboration, innovation, and interactive, Web 2.0 styles of thinking. So I was dismayed to discover that while these terms are used a lot in library school, the format of my courses is based on a much older model of education where students acquire knowledge through rote learning and memorization.
To me, learning does not mean remembering stuff that you can regurgitate later. As award-winning educator Sir Ken Robinson points out, this model may have been useful in the Industrial Age where workers on assembly lines specialized in specific, repetitious tasks, but it does not serve 21st century purposes. The day-to-day realities of librarianship require "transferable skills", such as the ability to collaborate with others, solve complex problems, deal effectively with patrons, and manage resources – the very skills that make an MLIS so flexible and useful.
Now, to a point, it's our own responsibility to make sure that we acquire these skills. An MLIS is a packaged educational commodity that by virtue of its flexibility cannot be "one size fits all." If our programs don't suit our needs exactly then it should be our responsibility to hack them until they do. That's why Hack Library School exists, after all! But at the same time, the library schools that provide this commodity also have a responsibility to ensure that their curricula strive to reflect the current demands of the profession.
I'd like to open up a dialogue with all of Hack's loyal readers about teaching methods used in library school. My experience is limited only to my own program, and I am certainly not a professor. But nonetheless, I have strong feelings about this topic, as well as some ideas that might be effective. I'd also like to hear from you about aspects of your programs' pedagogies that have worked especially well for you – or haven't. So, without further ado…
Powerpoint Killed the Lecture Star
Now, I hate to bash the lecture format because I enjoyed lectures immensely during my undergrad and I still think that a well-delivered lecture is a thing of beauty. However, I did my undergrad in the days before students were checking Facebook and texting all through class. Not to mention the rise of Powerpoint, which in my opinion has had a disastrous effect on the lecture format.
Although Powerpoint has a lot of potential to augment lectures if used creatively, I can attest from my teaching days that it becomes all too easy to use it as a crutch. Instructors simply plug in their content and recite it word for word…and wonder why their students are playing Tetris on their iPhones. Another pitfall is that many instructors have a tendency to load Powerpoint slides with down with huge blocks of text. When students see this, they don't read it, they just disengage.
Powerpoint also takes away all impetus for students to take their own notes; what's the point of copying out a Powerpoint when the prof's just going to upload it to Web CT anyway? But as it turns out, when students write notes by hand, they better retain the content. There's something about the physical connection of hand to pen to paper.
An effective Powerpoint presentation uses minimal text (only for key points) and images that are relevant to the content. If a slide with a block of text is absolutely necessary, intersperse it with slides that have very little text to ensure variety. An instructor should then use the Powerpoint only as a jumping off point. I used to try to make my own presentations as bare bones as possible and just riff on them. Not having everything on the Powerpoint forced me to stay fresh and spontaneous in my speech. It also had the added benefit of making students pay attention to my voice (not just the screen) to get that necessary information.
Besides, why use Powerpoint at all? There are other, more engaging tools out there, like Prezi! And, low tech though it may be, sometimes a good old-fashioned whiteboard allows for the most spontaneity of all.
Length of the Lecture, Length of the Lab
Again, I can only speak to my program, but many of my courses last semester were structured so that we had two or three hours of lecture followed by an hour of lab work during which we were expected to apply the lecture's principles. Although the professor would cover the important points in the lecture, I usually zoned out about halfway through – and I wasn't the only one. Combine sitting for hours at a time with information overload, and you've got yourself a perfect recipe for student boredom. By the time I got to the lab, I was often stupefied – and lost. I figured it out in the end, but only after going back and teaching myself what I needed to know.
In the educational field, new developments in brain based learning show that students do better in subjects they struggle with when they do physical activity prior to studying those subjects. Obviously I do not expect a professor to install treadmills in the classroom, but it is easy to build simple causes for movement into a lesson. One way to do this would be to integrate the lecture and lab. Lecture a little, let the students try it out, lecture a little more, let the students try that out. Let them talk to each other as they work to figure it out together. That not only gives the students a chance to move around, it will help them to retain information and encourages them to collaborate, a skill they are going to need far more than the ability to memorize.
Which brings me to my last point: assessment.
"Congratulations Batch of 2013!"
As Jeff Jarvis points out in his Ted Talk, another issue with lectures is that they are very much based on the industrial model: "Turning out students all the same, convincing them that there is one right answer — and that answer springs from the lectern."
When planning assessments, instructors need to take a step back and ensure that their assessments are meaningful. Are they assessing students in a way that measures their ability to do the interactive, collaborative work that lies ahead of them…or are they just looking for the "right answer?"
For example, there is no call for students to memorize facts and dates for a final exam in Reference Services that is closed book. If students do eventually become reference librarians, it will be highly unlikely that they will ever be in a situation where they can't consult outside sources, check the Web, or ask another librarian for help when they are stuck. So why create an artificial test-taking environment completely divorced from a real-life context? Mostly because it adheres to the industrial model of education. An exam room of students all churning out the same exam answers bears a strong resemblance to an assembly line of workers all turning out the same product.
But what do such exams actually assess? Only a student's ability to memorize and regurgitate. There are far better ways to tell if students know how to come up with creative, innovative answers to reference queries. Scrapping midterms and exams in favour of project-based instruction is one option. Or, if there must be an exam, make it a take-home exam. That way, it is the student's process rather than their product that is assessed.
To Wrap Up…
Library schools aren't the only ones trying to cope. Educators at the pre-school through graduate school levels are all trying to figure out how to address the issue of outdated educational paradigms. But in library school more so than in other contexts I have seen an antiquated system struggling, and often failing, to address 21st century educational needs. Fortunately, I have also seen library students taking the initiative to fill in the gaps and learn what they need to know. We can take it upon ourselves to create new methods of best practice in librarianship and information literacy instruction.
I'd love to hear from you. Which aspects of library school instruction have worked well for you in your own programs? Which haven't? Feel free to respond in comments or tweet me at laurainthelib. Until then…happy hacking!
§ 19 Responses to Teaching Methods Used in Library School
Hello, this was a very interesting post. I have to add that my experience so far in library school has been very different. I attend school in an online environment (not my first choice, but what was do-able)…so I am sure this effects greatly the differences in program. If I was going to write an article like this, it would be totally the opposite. I often feel that it is left up to me to learn on my own things that one would assume a teacher would actually teach. Often times, I don't even get a preferred standard for projects (literature reviews, reader's advisory, abstracts, etc.).
This is good and bad. I have to admit I think I learn more when I self-educate, but then what's the point of being in school?
Thank you for posting, it's great to see all the variety in programs out there!
hm I guess it depends on your program. Sure I definitely had some boring classes that followed the old teaching paradigm of "banking" knowledge acquisition. Within the program it also seemed to vary by professor.
But by that same token I had some classes that definitely lived up to the buzzwords. Tons of collaborative projects, including a collaboratively written and researched journal article. For one class we wrote our own grading rubric and then later designed 2 class sessions. I only ever had one class that did "exams". We created websites coded for real clients merging in academic service learning. Many classes had short lectures and lots of discussion. Many students also took self directed internships or designed their own courses and worked individually with a librarian.
I wonder how other online students feel–for me I think teaching methods are as important as course structure in an online setting. I think the bottom line is that the status quo will no longer do. As our libraries shift our education (methods and format) must shift as well. Thanks for a great post.
I'll stand up for in-person classes. I've never taken a library science test, I'm surprised that such a thing even exists! I love a well done lecture, sure a few of my classes had boring lectures. But pretty much ever single one of my in-person classes included discussion, problem-based learning, and other interactive modes of teaching. Most assessment was done through creative and collaborative group projects including building a digital library, re-designing information architecture, writing a quantitative journal article. This experience not only taught me the transferable skills you talk about, but also left me with presentable portfolio for finding a job.
I agree with your comment about "teacher brain." Once you have been trained as a teacher your brain has a hard time turning that filter off. Everything I have learned in my MLS courses, I relate to my school and students. I always try to think of ways to incorporate what I am learning into my services and lessons as a new media specialist. As for your experiences in library school, how sad! Library school should not be one of memorization and typical exams. Aren't we in the business of learning skills to share/teach/assist/our patrons? How can you test a skill with a traditional exam? My experiences in an online program thus far have consisted of meaningful projects and collaborations. I feel very lucky! Thanks for sharing!
[...] a great HLS post In Defense of Online LIS Education, and Laura Sanders' recent post on Teaching Methods Used in Library School generated some good discussion that included comments about online coursework. I'd like to [...]
[...] Professors will differ in the way they conduct the meetings, but most faculty expect students to take the lead in discussions. They will ask questions in order to help students clarify what they are thinking and what kinds of issues they want to discuss. Don't think of the situation as an exam where the professor has the knowledge and you are there to be tested on how much of it you have absorbed. Think of it, instead, as a chance to talk to a library researcher about a shared interest in librarianship. An independent study is also a great chance to learn differently than might be the established culture of teaching methods in your library school. [...]

Hi Helen,
I want to congratulate you on your weight loss journey, and also wanted to thank you for making this blog to help others achieve their goals.
Dear fellow reader,
Hello, This is Helen here, and I'm from , . I went from a size 14 to a size 4 in just two months. I know it sounds crazy but it's true! Before I tell you how I did it, I want you to know that my success came only after many diet failures. I think I've tried every diet out there at least once…maybe even twice. I've cut calories, exercised, and mixed a lot of tasteless shakes. Yuck.
Although I've always been able to drop a few pounds here and there, I just couldn't keep the weight off. Every time I started a new diet, I'd lose 3 or 4 pounds the first week and get really excited. (I later found out that this was just water weight.) Then I'd lose a couple pounds the next week. Before long, I'd hit the dreaded plateau, get discouraged, and quit. I was your typical yo-yo dieter.
Then I discovered something amazing.
I admit it. I'm no weight-loss expert. I'm just a mother of three, who went from flabby to fabulous in just 2 short months. See for yourself!
As you can tell from my pictures, I didn't drop just a few pounds. In fact, I lost 47 pounds of stomach fat in record time!
Here's the craziest part of my story. It was easy.
I didn't have to sweat in a gym with strangers and I didn't starve myself. I did something even better.
I used two free products that I saw on TV. I decided to try them and wow! I was blown away by the dramatic results.
As you can see, my transformation was nothing short of phenomenal. My friends couldn't believe it. They wanted to know my secret. At first, I just told them that I had changed my eating habits because I didn't want to get my hopes up. After all, I had failed so many times before and didn't want to be embarrassed by another failure.
By the end of the first month, however, they weren't buying my "diet" story any longer. I was down 29 pounds! Everyone thought I had gastric bypass surgery, so I had to come clean.
That's when I told them about the Green Coffee Cleanse diet and ZenCleanse program.
This duo diet cleanse has been clinically proven to reduce body fat. It works by telling your body to eject the toxic waste in your body by breaking it down and expelling it. When your body eliminates toxic waste, your body functions better and your metabolism rises so it keeps you burning off body fat throughout the day and night.
Along with fat loss, these 2 cleanses also increases your energy, your sex drive, a reduction in mood swings and it keeps your body healthy by fighting off illnesses and diseases.
After much research, I chose the brands Green Coffee Cleanse and ZenCleanse. I wanted only the most credible suppliers on the market and I found that Green Coffee Cleanse and ZenCleanse had been on the market for over 7 years and were the first companies to bring Green Coffee and a natural ZenCleanse to the market.
Aside from being featured on Rachael Ray & the celebrity Dr's, Fox News, CNN and many more TV channels, they were the only 2 companies willing to offer interested customers a honest free trial. And besides, Green Coffee Bean Extract has the most potent high quality Green Coffee extract available on the market today so you can be assured that you're taking the real stuff.
Now let me ask you something…
Are You Fighting the Battle of the Bulge?
There's nothing to be embarrassed about. We've all been there.
Maybe you can relate to my story.
Before I got pregnant, I weighed a healthy 132 pounds. I wasn't model thin, but I felt comfortable with my body. During my pregnancy, I gained about 30 pounds. After my son was born, I lost all but 10 pounds.
It was just 10 pounds. Easy to lose, right? Wrong. I tried all kinds of diets to get rid of the weight: Adkins, Weight Watchers, even diet shakes. Nothing worked. Then I got pregnant for the second time. Instead of losing most of the baby fat this time, I kept most of it (or should I say it kept me). It wouldn't budge. I was so depressed. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get back into my old clothes again.
Now, you'd think that chasing two active little boys around the house would help me keep me in great shape. It didn't. In fact, I got even heavier. Four years later, I weighed my heaviest at 171 pounds. I was so embarrassed. I was tired, depressed, and I thought it was all my fault. How could I just let myself go like that?
One day when I felt really down about my weight, a friend stopped by for lunch. I told her how depressed I felt, and she admitted that she often felt the same way about her weight.
Here's the funny part: Little did I know that just moments after she left that day, I'd turn on the TV and change my life.
After lunch, I got on the couch, ready to take my afternoon nap. That's when I saw the handsome celebrity Dr. on the Rachael Ray show talking about Green Coffee. That's the day my life changed forever.
He explained that this new fruit from Africa, had phenomenal health benefits. Before that day, I had never heard of the Green Coffee. Even if I had, I never would have believed it was anything more than a healthy snack. However, the more the awesome Dr. talked about it, the more I wanted to know.
I learned that the Green Coffee is better tasting and more powerful than red wine or pomegranate. Here's the real kicker: Green Coffee keeps you from feeling hungry and increases your energy, all at the same time!
The next day, there he was again, on another show talking about how a colon cleanse helps you lose weight. He had my full attention.
Then I thought, "What would happen if I used both? Could this be the answer I'd been looking for?"
If one worked, wouldn't it make sense that using them together would work twice as well?
I did a little research and discovered that not only were these two products avaialble, but Green Coffee Cleanse and ZenCleanse could be be used together.
Green Coffee contains pure fat-burning anti-oxidants that helps you melt away body fat effortlessly. We only recommend the highest extract of Green Coffee in it's finest form. And combined with ZenCleanse (a fantastic colon cleanse) - the results are simply unbelieveable. Keep reading, in a moment I'm going to tell you how to get these Green Coffee Cleanse extract and ZenCleanse Program for free.
If you're frustrated about your weight problems, like I was, here's what you need to know….
It's Not Your Fault
That's right. If you've tried countless diets and they haven't worked, the problem isn't you. It's what the media has been feeding you.
Losing weight is not about will power. You need to forget what you've been told.
That's why I'm going to let you in on a little-known secret about the diet industry….
They Don't Want You to Keep the Weight Off
That's right. You see, if you lose weight permanently, they've lost a customer for life. To stay in business, they need repeat buyers. That's why they give you quick fix methods that help you lose water weight, not fat. As soon as you're off the program, BAM! the weight comes back. A few months later, you buy their product again…and so the cycle of yo-yo dieting begins.
I wasn't about to get tricked like that again. It was time to get serious about losing weight.
That's when I went to my doctor.
Here I am on Day 1 of my weight-loss journey.
That's me at my doctor's office getting a body fat measurement before I started using Rachael Ray's diet of Green Coffee Cleanse and ZenCleanse. My body fat was measured 28.45 percent. As you can see by the picture, I was clearly overweight.
What scared me even more was the fact that my doctor told me I was at high risk for developing high blood pressure, diabetes, and breast cancer. Now, that's scary.
I knew I had to get started right away. I was happy to find out that I could actually order Green Coffee Cleanse and ZenCleanse free online! Now, I had no excuse not to try them. I placed my order. I could hardly wait to get started.
This is what I discovered after the first week of taking them.
The Fat Just Melts Away!
Here's what I looked like just two months later:
My doctor was amazed. He measured my body fat again 2 months later. My body fat index had dropped to 20.6, which is normal for my height and weight. I could hardly believe it. I hadn't been that thin since high school.
Okay, now, enough about me. Let's talk about how you can lose weight doing what I did.
It's not hard. Just follow these two steps….
Step 1:
Start with Green Coffee Cleanse. CNN, Rachael Ray, and many news networks have covered the health benefits of Green Coffee. Green Coffee Cleanse is jam-packed with the highest quality Green Coffee you can find on the market today, so don't take a chance on an imitation product.
This is what Green Coffee Cleanse and ZenCleanse does for me:
* Regulates my metabolism
* Suppresses my hunger during the day
* Boosts my energy so I could focus on my kids, job, husband, and just more "me" time
* Melts away the fat from my body by replacing my cravings for coffee and soda
Now that I don't drink coffee or soda, my teeth are whiter. Another benefit!
The best part is that you can get a bottle of Green Coffee Cleanse absolutely free just like I did. It's easy to get started. Take it in the morning and forget about it. No more counting calories or measuring portion sizes. Your fat will just melt away.
Step 2:
ZenCleanse puts your weight loss into overdrive. (It's important to use both products if you want results like mine.) While Green Coffee Cleanse gives you energy and suppresses your hunger, ZenCleanse takes it one step further by:
* Removing harmful toxins in your body (clears the muck!)
* Trimming several inches off your waistline
* Reducing blood pressure and cholesterol levels
* Being a natural safe colon cleanse specifically designed to improve health and promote weight loss
Once you receive your free trial of ZenCleanse, simply follow the program, along with taking Green Coffee cleanse. That's what I did. It's the perfect weight-loss combination! You'll shed flab, cleanse your system, and get amazing results.
Try It for One Month Risk-Free
My free bottle lasted for about a month. In that time, I dropped 29 pounds! I continued using both products and the next month I lost another 18 pounds.
That's a total of 47 lbs in 2 months!!!
By the end of the second month, I weighed 124 pounds. That's 8 pounds less than I weighed before I got pregnant!
As I sat down to write my story, I thought I should weigh myself to see if I've maintained my weight the same results. I've done even better. I've been on the plan for 4 months now and I'm down to 119 pounds. Amazing.
I no longer feel like I have to take a nap after lunch. It's just the opposite. I've got so much energy! My boys love it. I can keep up with them when they run around the house now. They also say I'm not as cranky as I used to be.
My husband says I look even sexier than the day we met. He loves my new body.
Again, I'm no weight loss expert. I'm just a mom who got sick and tired of feeling sick and tired.
Who knew that Rachael Ray and the celebrity Dr. would change my life!
I hope my story gives you some hope and motivation to order Green Coffee Cleanse and ZenCleanse like I did.
You'll love your new body.
Even if you've been a diet flunky like me, give them a try. They worked for me, and (after I revealed my secret) they worked for my best friend too.

Thank you Brenda for posting your story. It was very motivating. I have the same struggles with food. I want to make a change. Sometimes it is so hard. But I am working toward it now. I ordered the two diets and it should be here any day. I feel like I am on my way to weight success. I am going to keep daily entries and hopefully I can make a motivational page too and help others reach their goals. I just found out that Rachael Ray does promote these products and I will try it immediately. I will post more when I have progress. Again thank you so much.

I have tried many weight-loss programs in my life and I'm sorta a fanatic about it... the formula that you used is not like any other. I started this formula about a month ago and I have to say... this was my greatest single loss in weight in my whole life. You're very selfless sharing this with everyone on your website. I hope it does wonders for people reading this.

Hi, just found this site and read your story. I'm very proud of you for writing it. This Green Coffee Cleanse and ZenCleanse helped me lose over 20 lbs of weight and helped my neighbor lose 40 lbs in only 2 months. Simply put, if you're not using these two products you are missing out on one of the greatest weight loss secret in history... and I'm not exagirating - rachael

Hi there Helen. I was a bit skeptical when I first read about this but as I researched more and more I found out that Green Coffee is indeed what Rachael Ray and many scientists say it is. It's one of the secret anti-aging products that nobody seems to want to share. I wouldn't be surprised many celebrities know about this. I requested for the Green Coffee Cleanse and the ZenCleanse free 1 month supply and I'm so excited! I cannot wait for them get here!


text: This sauce was soooooooo good. I usually eat half a chicken breast but with this sauce I couldn't help but eat a whole breast to myself - with no shame! The only two things I omitted were the dry wine (because I'm underage, ha) and the chives, because I didn't have any. I also used green onions instead of shallots, but it was still delicious. I paired this with cauliflower mash and green beans and they really went well with the chicken and helped keep the overall meal a light and healthy one.
