Saying Goat Rendang tastes better the next day gets my goat. There's no goat to get. Why? Because we ate it all on the first sitting. It was far too tasty to keep. We'll never know if it tastes better the next day. If I were just that bit more trusting, I'd be sitting here (with you, as you would have arrived on time), living on 40% of a Nigerian royal fortune, debating the merits of cold goat rendang.
But, life has eroded my blind faith and instead of that glorious scenario, I'm here typing this recipe not knowing if an additional 24 hours in the fridge improves the dish.
Here's how my ingredients would look from a perch in heaven.
1 kilo of goat leg meat, cubed.
Side note on palm sugar: If you come across a recipe calling for palm sugar, go out and buy some. You could substitute ordinary sugar and you would never know what you are missing. However, I know and you will need to trust me, without proof.
Dry fry the desiccated coconut until it becomes a rich brown colour.
You need to move fast as the coconut will burn.
In the same pan, dry fry the cumin seeds.
This picture for those of you who think I don't give a toss.
Roughly chop the shallots, ginger, galangal, chilies and garlic.
As they are going into the blender, they only need to be roughly chopped.
Blend or grind the cumin seeds and these aromatics into a paste. Add a little oil to a wok and fry the mixture for a few minutes. It will darken and become very aromatic. Don't burn it.
There is a really flavoursome aroma. Very fragrant.
Add the goat meat and stir to cover it in the paste.
The dish looks pretty awful at this stage. Stick with it.
Add the palm sugar and stir until the meat is well covered and starting to brown. Bash the lemongrass to bruise it. Add the lemongrass, desiccated coconut, cinnamon stick, kaffir lime leaves and coconut milk. The mixture will look at its worst.
Not the most appealing at this stage.
The rendang will take between three and a half hours and four and a half hours to cook from here. Bring the pot to a simmer and turn the heat down to very low. Stir. You can take a few minutes off to do something unrelated to cooking. However, you will need to return to stir the mixture every five minutes or so. This will form the pattern of the rest of the cooking process. A good rendang can't be rushed and it needs regular stirring. After an hour, the rendang will look like in the next photo.
An hour down and it's only light brown….
After another 60 minutes, the sauce is beginning to darken and thicken.
2 hours in and it's not quite as thin….
As the rendang thickens, the oils in the meat are released. These can be spooned off, if you desire.
Four hours down, it's nice and brown….
The rendang will have filled the house with incredible aromas. When all the 'sauce' has evaporated and all the dry ingredients have bound to the meat, it's time to eat. I served it with a simple turmeric rice. The flavour was delicious. The natural sweetness of the meat was accentuated by the palm sugar. This initial taste was followed by a wonderful complex coconut spiciness and finished off by a gathering chilli heat.
A squeeze of lime on the rice and a nice cold beer completed the package.
As I intimated above, we ate the lot. I have another kilo of goat in the freezer. If I make this again, I know we will eat it all at one sitting. We will never get to know if it tastes better the next day. It will never last that long. Now, where's that email from the Nigerian prince?
Meatloaf Sous Vide - Nostalgia Is Not What It Used To Be.
Ha! I still have a kilo of it in a vacuum bag in the freezer. I plan to either do a tajine or a more traditional curry with it. When I get my act together, it will appear here. BTW, I have cooked a leg of goat last week and plan to post it soon too.
It is. I kid you not.
I have the solution. Make double the quantity, and brace yourself for fabulous rendang two days running. Or you could freeze the first lot and torture yourself by letting the other half mature in the fridge for 24 hours… G'wan now, you know it makes sense. Go and buy another kilo of goat….
I have another kilo of goat in the freezer Kate. My problem is fitting it all in the wok. I might need to buy a much bigger one and get some strapping young lads to help me stir the cauldron of tastiness. It does make sense.
Am I correct that this is an Indonesian dish? The chef at Sampurna in Amsterdam told me Thai is best fresh but Indonesian is better the next day. On the rare occasion I can get it, I've never waited around to find out.
You are quite right in your assumption. Indonesian it is. Originally used as a way of preserving meat in hot climates, they must have been very strong-minded to not eat the lot on day one.
Doubt I can get goat meat around here, but I love the seasoning. Serving such meat dishes the day after cooking definitely adds lots of flavor.
I'm beginning to think you need to move home Ronit. There's always room for another great cook here in Ireland.
lol Thank you Conor, for your kind offer!
Sadly, we have ignorance and narrow mindedness in all parts of the globe. Our welcome mat is out front if you decide on a visit.
You must have the most wonderful butcher who has access to all sorts of meats. I really enjoy reading your recipes for less popular cuts of meat. Luckily, we can get goat here in Texas as it is quite popular with our many Mexican residents, but rather than being available in general supermarkets, we have to go to specialty Mexican markets to get it. Thanks for your continued hard work to produce this blog!
Lori, I hope my butcher friend doesn't read your lovely complement. He is a big enough head as it is. I suspect I would love to visit a specialist Mexican store in Texas. The blog is a labor of love and I will keep hard at it for the time being.
When I first read the title of this I thought it said "Goat Rendering" and thought why heck is Conor rendering a goat, and what on earth did he do with it? I suppose the long process to cook this Goat Rendang could be considered a form of rendering. It looks delicious!
Me too! Me too! lol!
You create a fantastic mental picture of me with a goat in a huge pot slowly giving up what little fat the animal has. I'll stick with the rendang instead. It was particularly tasty.
Thanks CK. IT was pretty fine indeed. Worth the long cooking time.
Not sure about goat, but I would eat yours Conor.
The meat is very flavoursome. I cooked a leg and while it was not as tender as spring lamb, it was pretty tasty and really enjoyable to eat.I would encourage you to try it.
Hope all goes well up there in the cold mountain air.
Another great post, Conor. The only missing ingredient is salam leaves, which could be substituted by bay leaves. I wonder if, due to the spices, you can really taste the difference with beef rendang?
Turmeric root? Just eliminating . . .
I would have used bay, if I hadn't forgotten to add them. The kaffir lime leaves did add a nice note all the same. The meat is naturally a bit sweeter than the beef. I could taste a difference, though, I used a slightly different recipe to the beef rendang I cooked a while ago. It's a great question.
The stuff in the bowl is indeed palm sugar. I used about two thirds of what's there. It adds a fantastic almost honey-like flavour.
There is zero chance of it lasting for a week. Zero!
I've never used more than a teaspoon of palm sugar for a kilo of meat in rendang. I love the flavor of palm sugar, so I can see why you liked it with a bit more. Your palm sugar looks very different from the dark brown Indonesian palm sugar as I know it. I'll have to look into that!
Ditto. I bought a tub in a local ethnic (Indian/Chinese/Thai) supermarket. I must try further afield. Lovely ingredient.
Always the voice of reason Rosemary. Thank you!
Great advice, Conor! Good curries take their time to prep and cook. Make four times the amount – and you know what to do with what is not consumed. Anyways, way back when I was taught by wonderful Brit/Indian expats cooking professionally in Australia: 'Eha, any curry prepped is raw and inedible the first day . . . hmmm, you may serve it on the second . . . it is at its probable best on the third . . . and, if you have the guts but the palate: the fourth-day curry is mouthwatering 🙂 ! I still follow that 'rule' but am peagreen that I have loved rendang since I was about 20, but goat is kind'of hard to access here . . . . lucky you . . .
Try three honestly! I mean you are not going to keep it on the kitchen bench in the interim!! [And in Dublin it probably would not matter 🙂 !] And it will be brought to 'the boil' ere you eat it!! The increased depth of flavour is noticeable, I promise!!
I promise to do it. 3 day curry! It sounds like a sous vide challenge.
Ah, the things you will never know. However, what I also know is that palm sugar does make a difference.
I'm thinking of adding palm sugar instead of golden syrup to flapjacks I make for our cycling trips. I think it could be delicious. A great ingredient.
Thanks Michelle. There is a 'golden thread' running through the comments. Lesson learned.
Only recently have I located a source for great cuts of goat and I've taken advantage of my find on several occasions, Looks like I'll be doing it again so that I can try this recipe. Better still, I may be able to answer your query since this recipe will result in far more rendang that this person can eat at one sitting. To whom shall I send my bill for services rendered?
Services rendanged, I'm sure you mean. Can't wait for the post.
Rendang is one of my favorite dishes and it is certainly better the next day after the spices have a chance to mingle. I have always made it with beef, never with goat. Something new to try.
And something new for me to do BAM. Let it sit overnight is what I need to do, for sure.
Now you could have saved just a tiny bit to test that thesis, no… ? Well, seeing just how delicious this looks, I understand.
The bit of fat is delicious in the rice, for sure Frank. There is very little skill but a lot of patience required. It's not a dish one can rush.
Having seen this, I'm tempted to never order Anything Rendang in a restaurant again. They couldn't possibly put the work in that you do here, could they? Have you ruined non-Bofin-made Rendang for us all, Conor?!
Sorry about that Tara. However, given the low grade of skill involved in stirring a pot for four and a half hours, they may just put a 'dollar a day' person on the job and achieve spectacular results. Now, if I were in your literary world, the 'dollar a day' would become famous and wealthy. They would establish a global chain of top end rendang restaurants and I would not bother to compete with my humble efforts. However, I'm not in that world and I will continue to rendang anything on which I can get my greasy, small, Trump like paws.
If only the Nigerian prince emails were true! I just love Asian flavours and this probably wouldn't last long at our house either. I'd have to make it just for my husband and me so there would be leftovers. With two teenagers, leftovers are a rare breed indeed.
Hi, my name is Andrew. I have taken over the replying duties for Conor as he has left Ireland on a large yacht. It would appear that the Nigerian prince with whom he was communicating has sent the $10,000,000 and Conor has retired to a warmer climate.
I believe he will, just as soon as he completes the trip around Australia.
I've had Goat Rendang a few times in the South east Asian restaurant by our place and I'm hooked.
Have you tried making it in the slow cooker. I was thinking of prepping it in a wok and then let it simmer in the slow cooker for a few hours.
I haven't tried it. I winder if the slow cooker would get hot enough without the lid. It would be important to leave the lid off for evaporation. Try it. Let me know please. The worst that could happen would be that it would have to be transferred to a wok.

With an unemployment rate under 2% and a quickly growing GDP, Singapore has become a hotspot for new businesses and international companies expanding their operations to Asia.
Understand The Cultural Norms
Singaporeans place high value on punctuality and respecting the dignity and honor of themselves and their peers. Tardiness is seen as a sign of disrespect, so make sure to always be mindful of being punctual for any and all appointments set in this country.
Be Aware Of Strict Laws
It is important to be knowledgable on local laws and regulations, which include serious penalties for acts like jaywalking, littering, and smoking in public.
#2 - Working Hours in Singapore
Weekly work time in Singapore is limited to 8 hours per day and cannot exceed 44 hours in a week. Overtime may be paid at 150% of the regularly employee payment depending on the employee's workman status and if their salary rests below the relevant wage cap.
#3 - Singapore Employment Contracts
Employment contracts in Singapore must clearly state the employees' responsibilities, compensation details, benefits, grievance procedures, and requirements for termination. All offer letters, compensation details, and any document where employee income is discussed should be stated in Singapore Dollars.

#5 - Bonus Payments in Singapore
While it is not required by law, the common practice in Singapore is to grant all employees with a 13th month salary or similar annual bonus. It is common for the annual bonus to be more generous in value when the Singaporean economy is performing particularly well.
#6 - Health Insurance & Employment Benefits
The Singaporean national system provides health insurance to everyone who is a resident or has a working visa in Singapore. Employers have the option to provide their employees with supplementary health insurance as an additional benefit if requested by the employee in the contract negotiation. Stock options are frequently sought after by executives and high level managers working for US based companies while located in Singapore.
#7 - Sick Leave in Singapore
People working in Singapore have the right to receive sick leave if they have been working for a company longer than 3 months and provide a notice from a certified medical professional. As customary with sick leave policy, employees are entitled to longer durations of leave the longer they have been with the company. Once an employee has reached the six month mark of employment with a single company in Singapore, they are entitled to 14 days of outpatient leave along with 60 days of hospitalization leave. The number of days of paid sick leave is dependent on the length of service. Employees who have worked for at least six months are eligible for 14 days of outpatient, non-hospitalization leave and 60 days of hospitalization leave, which includes the 14 days of outpatient leave.
#8 - Maternity Leave in Singapore
Female employees who are citizens of Singapore, are legally married to the father of the child, and have worked for her employer for a minimum three months are entitled to 16 weeks of paid maternity leave. For the maternity leave expenses for the employee's first two pregnancies, the employer pays for eight weeks of the leave and the government pays for the second eight weeks. The government then pays for the entirety of the maternity leave for employees having their third child and all children to follow. If an employee is working in Singapore but is not a citizen or are not married to the father, the maternity leave will typically be 12 weeks long instead of the 16 afforded to citizens and married women. Fathers are entitled to Paternity leave if they are legal citizens of Singapore and are married to a woman who has given birth.
#9 - Termination & Severance in Singapore
When negotiating employee probationary periods during the initial contract discussions, the standard practice is to provide a 3-6 notice period. The common practice is to give one months' termination notice to employees or employers. However, there is no legal requirement to allow a period of probation. A probation period of 3-6 months may generally be agreed to in the employment contract, during which there is a shorter notice period. This is not a statutory requirement. One month's termination notice on behalf of the employer or employee is the generally agreed term, but this is not fixed. If the notice period is not specified in the employment contract, the following applies:

Protecting Your Trade Secrets: Confidentiality Agreements Can't Transform Generally Known Information Into Trade Secrets
Louisiana's Uniform Trade Secrets Act prevents a person or business from profiting from a trade secret developed by another. The threshold question in every trade secret dispute is whether a legally protectable trade secret actually exists. What information is considered a legally protectable trade secret?
The Operative definition appears in La. R.S. 51:1431(4). It provides:
(4) "Trade secret" means information, including a formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique, or process, that:
(a) derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use, and
(b) is the subject of efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy.
Businesses often use confidentiality agreements executed by employees to protect sensitive or trade secret information. Information that is generally known, however, is not considered a trade secret. Moreover, confidentiality agreements cannot transform generally known information into a trade secret.
How should businesses protect their sensitive trade secret information? First make sure that reasonable efforts have been taken to maintain the secrecy of that information, so it qualifies as a trade secret. Is it limited to "need to know" employees? Is it withheld from the general public? As an example, distributing price sheets to customers eliminates any trade secret protection regarding pricing. Additionally, readily ascertainable information is not subject to trade secret protection.
If your information qualifies as a trade secret subject to protection under Louisiana law, misappropriation of such information is actionable. What qualifies as misappropriation? Misappropriation includes the acquisition of a trade secret of another by a person who knows or has reason to know that the trade secret was acquired by improper means. It also includes the disclosure or use of a trade secret of another without express or implied consent to do so.
How long do you have to file suit for misappropriation? According to Louisiana law, an action for misappropriation must be brought within three years after the misappropriation is discovered or by the exercise of reasonable diligence should have been discovered.
In the competitive marketplace, it is critical for Louisiana businesses to protect their sensitive, trade secret information. Today's efforts to maintain trade secret protection for your sensitive information will prove critical in later alleging misappropriation of your company's most important information.

Browse the article What's the best way to clean formica?
Your kitchen can look high-end without the price tag.
Formica is a popular brand of laminate countertops that comes in a large variety of patterns and styles. These countertops are considerably less expensive than granite or tile, but are manufactured to mimic these pricier materials. So, what exactly is a laminate countertop? It's a thin sheet of laminated plastic that adheres to a base, usually made of plywood or particle board. Formica is known to be pretty heavy-duty and unlike tile, it's scratch-resistant under normal conditions. But to keep your Formica in good shape, countertops need to be cleaned and cared for with some simple guidelines.
All you really need to clean Formica is a soft cloth or sponge and a small dollop of mild dish soap. Window cleaner or just plain white vinegar also do a good job. Simply run your cloth under water and ring it out so it's damp but not soaking wet, and give the countertops a good once-over at least once a day, or after heavy use. Formica is typically stain-resistant, but it's still best to clean up spills and messes immediately. Be sure to have another soft cloth on hand to dry off the countertop after cleaning. This will keep water from leaking into the seams in the countertop, which are usually around the side trim. For tougher, caked-on food or crud, use a paste of baking soda and white vinegar for best results.
Formica, like all other laminates, doesn't bode well with abrasive cleaners. So any commercial products with a grit are a big no-no for your laminate countertops. Also, cleansers with an acid content or any other heavy solvents aren't good choices for your Formica -- they'll eventually damage the plastic coating. You should also avoid flooding the counters with a lot of water. The water can seep into the plastic coating, causing it to detach from the base, not to mention it will eventually warp the wood base. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, so the key to keeping your Formica in great shape is to remember that it's not a good candidate for heat and flames. Be sure to use a trivet and avoid putting down hot pans from the stove or oven directly on the surface; they'll leave a scorch mark. And keep a cutting board handy, because although Formica is known to be scratch-resistant, a knife will likely leave a permanent cut in the surface.
Formica is a trademark that has become a generic term for laminate countertops. This is a common occurrence with companies that usually have more than their fair share of the market. Other examples of this include Q-tips and Chapstick, which are synonymous with cotton swabs and lip balm. In some cases, former trademarks have actually become the generic term, such as escalator and linoleum. The official term for this is a genericized trademark.

Smart Drugs, Microdosing, Cryotherapy & 5 Other Biohacks Assessed
Posted by Jerry De Luca on Sunday, July 15, 2018
An eclectic and diverse number of supposed cutting edge medical technology treatments have grown in popularity in recent years. These radical and innovative therapies are commonly known as "biohacks" and promise potential cures to persistent ailments that conventional medicine has been unable to completely heal. Does science back up these treatments or are any perceived cures merely placebo? Is the wallop to one's bank account worth it or are these merely more ruses from modern-day snake-oil peddlers? Examined below are eight of the more popular and ambitious biohacks.
Science fiction films and novels have long speculated on people taking "smart" drugs to enhance creativity, improve memory and focus, and generally raise IQ levels. A wide variety of such drugs are currently available with wild claims and varying evidence.
"The brain is complicated. In trying to upgrade it, you risk upsetting its intricate balance. 'It's not just about more, it's about having to be exquisitely and exactly right. And that's very hard to do," says Amy Arnsten (Professor of Neurobiology at Yale Medical School). 'What's good for one system may be bad for another system,' adds Trevor Robbins, Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of Cambridge. 'It's clear from the experimental literature that you can affect memory with pharmacological agents, but the problem is keeping them safe.'
"Drugs and catastrophe are seemingly never far apart, whether in laboratories, real life or Limitless (the movie). Downsides are all but unavoidable: if a drug enhances one particular cognitive function, the price may be paid by other functions. To enhance one dimension of cognition, you'll need to appropriate resources that would otherwise be available for others……..
"Despite decades of study, a full picture has yet to emerge of the cognitive effects of the classic psychostimulants and modafinil. Part of the problem is that getting rats, or indeed students, to do puzzles in laboratories may not be a reliable guide to the drugs' effects in the wider world. Drugs have complicated effects on individuals living complicated lives. Determining that methylphenidate enhances cognition in rats by acting on their prefrontal cortex doesn't tell you the potential impact that its effects on mood or motivation may have on human cognition."

Gaining momentum in the tech world, ingesting tiny amounts of psychedelic drugs is supposed to be safe, enhance creativity and alleviate depression.
"Here's the thing about taking drugs at work: You think no one does it, but they do. In Silicon Valley, at least. 'People are microdosing all sorts of things in Silicon Valley,' says Molly Maloof, a bubbly M.D. with a personalized medicine practice in San Francisco that specializes in helping biohackers try their tactics safely. 'People microdose mushrooms, they microdose LSD, they microdose research chemicals. It's a weird world.'
"Proponents claim that minuscule doses of psychedelics enhance creativity and productivity while reducing depression, anxiety, and cravings for cigarettes and alcohol. But no one's really studied it. 'The most important thing to emphasize is we really don't know,' says Matthew Johnson, an associate professor at Johns Hopkins University who studies potential therapeutic effects of larger doses of psilocybin. Still, the questions being asked are smart, he says. 'There's every reason to think that tinkering with that receptor system could have antidepressant effects, and it's never been systematically manipulated in that way.'"

The entire body is cooled in a sleek-looking tub of nitrogen. For $90 per session inflammation is claimed to be reduced, among other health benefits.
"Yet the science behind these devices is decidedly lackluster. In July the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a warning stating that there is no evidence these technologies help to ease muscle aches, insomnia or anxiety or provide any other medical benefit. Instead, it said, they may cause frostbite, burns, eye damage or even asphyxiation. In a statement to Scientific American the agency added, 'The FDA has not approved or cleared any whole-body cryotherapy devices, and we do not have the necessary evidence to substantiate any medical claims being made for these devices.' The agency based its warning on its own informal review of published literature and generally recognized hazards associated with exposure to the gas that creates the cold conditions in the treatment chamber…..
"As for the effects of whole-body cryotherapy on all the other ailments it can purportedly address beyond athletic injuries, the science is virtually nonexistent. The claims have not been subjected to the rigors of a randomized trial. Nor do researchers have definitive answers about whether exposure to gasified liquid nitrogen produces beneficial effects on heart rate, blood pressure or metabolism—effects that, if they occurred, might help ease anxiety, treat migraines or fuel weight loss, among other aims.
"Mark Murdock, managing partner at CryoUSA, does not dispute that whole-body cryotherapy lacks evidence for many of the uses claimed for it. The company promotes the devices for reducing pain and inflammation and increasing energy, but in his view, that use provides 'comfort,' not medical assistance. He adds that medical claims, such as that the devices can drive weight loss, are 'crazy.' He also says he supports the FDA's decision to release the warning it issued in July and thinks the agency should ultimately step in to regulate the industry and curb such assertions.
"Not only are the supposed benefits of cryotherapy chambers unproved but scientists also lack a clear understanding of any risks they might pose. No studies have focused on adverse effects. And not all whole-body cryotherapy is created equal: treatments vary in duration, temperature and which body parts are spared contact with the subzero vapors. How long a person is exposed, at what temperature and under what conditions matter for safety, says Naresh Rao, the USA Water Polo Olympic team's physician."

Float Tanks
Mind and body sensory deprivation in an enclosed pool of water. For $50 to $125 stress is likely to be reduced and a better night's sleep enjoyed that night, provided you effectively discipline your mind and relax while in the tank.
"Floatation-REST (Reduced Environmental Stimulation Therapy) reduces sensory input to the nervous system through the act of floating supine in a pool of water saturated with Epsom salt. The float experience is calibrated so that sensory signals from visual, auditory, olfactory, gustatory, thermal, tactile, vestibular, gravitational and proprioceptive channels are minimized, as is most movement and speech. This open-label study aimed to examine whether Floatation-REST would attenuate symptoms of anxiety, stress, and depression in a clinical sample. Fifty participants were recruited across a spectrum of anxiety and stress-related disorders (posttraumatic stress, generalized anxiety, panic, agoraphobia, and social anxiety), most with comorbid unipolar depression. Measures of self-reported affect were collected immediately before and after a 1-hour float session, with the primary outcome measure being the pre- to post-float change score on the Spielberger State Anxiety Inventory.
"Irrespective of diagnosis, Floatation-REST substantially reduced state anxiety. Moreover, participants reported significant reductions in stress, muscle tension, pain, depression and negative affect, accompanied by a significant improvement in mood characterized by increases in serenity, relaxation, happiness and overall well-being. In reference to a group of 30 non-anxious participants, the effects were found to be more robust in the anxious sample and approaching non-anxious levels during the post-float period. Further analysis revealed that the most severely anxious participants reported the largest effects. Overall, the procedure was well-tolerated, with no major safety concerns stemming from this single session. The findings from this initial study need to be replicated in larger controlled trials, but suggest that Floatation-REST may be a promising technique for transiently reducing the suffering in those with anxiety and depression."

Specialized Nutrition Via Genetic Testing
Can a doctor create an effective personalized diet and exercise program with the help of genetic testing?
"While there's support for considering genetics in making prudent decisions about diet and exercise, the ability of genetic testing that aims to personalize dietary and fitness approaches to improve your health long-term remains to be seen. 'While some of the info provided can be a game-changer for some people in terms of their compliance to better habits, the directness of the advice and claims appears to be largely over-hyped,' says Paul Kriegler, a Chanhassen, Minnesota-based registered dietitian and program manager for nutritional products at Life Time.
"For example, the jump from say, having a gene variant linked to lactose sensitivity to believing you should avoid dairy is a big one that ignores all of the other many, still not well understood, factors that influence how you tolerate milkshakes and yogurt. 'How you live your life, the kind of diet you have, do you have any infections, do you have high stress, do you live in a polluted environment – that sort of thing is significant,' says Robin Foroutan, a New York City-based integrative medicine dietitian and spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
"It's also important to recognize that personalized genetics companies differ in their testing methods, the scientific basis for those tests and how they translate results into advice for readers……..
"'They all have slightly different methods for sequencing genes [and] the scientific understanding of gene expression is still in its infancy, so there's a lot of conclusions left up to interpretation,' says Kriegler, who received some conflicting recommendations after using Pathway Fit, Nutrigenomix, 23andMe and Simplified Genetics. Most such companies that provide genetic testing kits for fitness and nutrition purposes make it clear that genetics are only one part of a complicated health picture, and allow consumers to connect with professionals like registered dietitians to help make sense of the data."

Home Microbiome Tests
One of the more popular health trends is the study of multiple types of bacteria in the human gut and how it affects everyday health. Home kits and analysis can cost up to $400.
"Startups are offering new services to analyze the complex community of microörganisms that live in the digestive tract—called the microbiome. Customers receive test tubes in the mail and send them back with fecal swabs to be analyzed in a lab. The companies say they can do things like make diet recommendations and predict risk for certain diseases based on a person's unique microbial makeup. While these tests could probably tell if you have a serious bacterial infection, scientists say they can't yet diagnose patients with diseases and they are doubtful the tests can reliably provide the kind of personalized information their makers claim they will.
"'The enthusiasm of their manufacturers simply goes well beyond where the science is right now,' says Rob Knight, a leading microbiome researcher and professor at the University of California, San Diego. Knight is the cofounder of the American Gut project, a crowdfunded study to map the human gut……..
"Knight says what people can realistically expect to learn from these new commercial tests is more along the lines of a snapshot of how a participant's microbiome compares to others with different diets, ages, and lifestyles, or in different places around the world. The American Gut project gives this kind of analysis without making disease risk predictions or doling out health advice."

Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation, CES
Brief, low-level electric currents are sent by electrodes on the scalp with the intent of stimulating the brain and providing health benefits.
"CES is similar to Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) but stimulates the brain with electric current rather than magnetic pulses. CES has attracted attention due to aggressive marketing by Fisher Wallace Laboratories of the Fisher Wallace Stimulator, which has received positive coverage from CBS, Fox News, Huffington Post and other outlets. The firm's main marketing strategy is claiming that its CES device, which costs $699 and can be used at home, is cheaper and safer than other electro-cures. The company claims that 'more than 20 published studies prove the safety and effectiveness of the Fisher Wallace Stimulator' for treating depression and anxiety. Cochrane carried out a review in 2014 and found 'no high quality clinical trials comparing CES with sham CES in people with acute depression. Currently, there is insufficient evidence to support the use of CES in treatment of acute depression.'"
https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/cross-check/return-of-electro-cures-symptom-of-psychiatry-s-crisis/
"Twenty-eight articles from 26 randomized trials met eligibility criteria. The 2 trials that compared CES with usual care were small, and neither reported a statistically significant benefit in pain or anxiety outcomes for patients with fibromyalgia or anxiety, respectively. Fourteen trials with sham or placebo controls involving patients with painful conditions, such as headache, neuromuscular pain, or musculoskeletal pain, had conflicting results. Four trials done more than 40 years ago and 1 from 2014 provided low-strength evidence of a possible modest benefit compared with sham treatments in patients with anxiety and depression."

Biohacking Sleep
Best-selling author and eccentric biohack guru Tim Ferriss comes up with outlandish health hacks that are perplexing not only to the medical community but to anyone with basic common sense. Just one example is his claim that anyone can function on just 2 hours of sleep per day.
"How? It involves taking six 20-minute naps, spaced evenly over a 24-hour period. Ferriss admits he reserves this method, a version of what's known as 'polyphasic sleep,' only for meeting emergency deadlines. So Dustin Curtis, credited simply as an 'experienced polyphasic sleeper,' served as Ferriss' go-to source on the approach. Most people sleep eight hours a night, Curtis says, but spend only about two hours in so-called rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. Because non-REM sleep is just 'unnecessary unconsciousness,' says Curtis, polyphasic sleepers 'train' their brain to go right into REM sleep during each nap. Over 24 hours, he claims they amass two hours' worth of REM, about the same amount a normal sleeper gets during a full night's rest.
"Experts say: So can you really function just as well on two hours of sleep? 'The short answer is, if I may speak in medical terms, hell no,' says Matt Bianchi, a neurologist and sleep physician at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. To say non-REM sleep is unnecessary is 'foundationless,' says Bianchi. 'I would challenge anyone to come up with a sliver of data to support that.' Consistently depriving yourself of sleep will hurt your body in some way, be it through heart or brain problems, he says."

Podesta: Russia behind email hacks, wanted Trump as its White House 'lap dog'
John Podesta, chairman of Hillary Clinton's failed presidential campaign, suggested Sunday that Russian President Vladimir Putin was indeed "personally involved" in the election email hacks because Russia wanted Donald Trump as its "lap dog" in the White House.
"Russia clearly intervened," Podesta said on NBC's "Meet the Press," in a series of carefully worded responses about who was behind the hacked emails and their impact on Clinton's losing campaign.
Podesta's "lap dog" comment was an apparent reference to New York Times op-ed columist Nicholas Kristof implying Saturday in the paper that Trump would be a "lap dog -- a Russian poodle."
Podesta, whose personal email account was hacked, also said Sunday that he has been contacted by the FBI only once about the ordeal, two days after WikiLeaks began publishing on Oct. 7 the trove of electronic messages.
He said that "NBC revealed that Putin was personally involved" and that the "CIA, FBI and (Director of National Intelligence James Clapper) all agree that the Russians did it to help Trump."
Podesta declined to say whether he thinks Trump, the Republican president-elect, or his team were directly involved in the hacking, saying Sunday that the issue remains an "open question."
In an op-ed last week in The Washington Post, he argued the FBI more thoroughly investigated Clinton's use of a private email server while secretary of state, compared to the email hacking, which started this past July with the Democratic National Committee.
Podesta wrote "something is deeply broken at the FBI" and that the email hacking purportedly by the Russians was the "political equivalent" of the 9/11 terror attacks.
Also on Sunday, Donna Brazile, the DNC's interim chairman, called for an "independent, bipartisan investigation of the attacks" that would include public hearings.
In her request, Brazile called herself "one of the main victims of the Russian attacks."
Brazile's emails were indeed hacked and showed that she, as a paid CNN contributor, gave the Clinton campaign questions ahead of a Democratic primary debate and a town hall-style event hosted by the cable network.
She resigned in the aftermath of the revelations, but the incident added to Trump supporters' beliefs about the mainstream media appearing to back Clinton.
While Clinton campaign staffers have suggested that Russia and FBI Director James Comey -- particularly his re-opening of the email server issue -- largely influenced the White House race, Podesta said Sunday the Clinton team was "responsible for the loss."
He acknowledged that Clinton during the general election should have visited Wisconsin, which until this year no Democratic presidential nominee had lost since 1984.
Still, he argued that Clinton's campaign had a larger grassroots effort than Trump's in Wisconsin and that Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Tim Kaine frequently visited the state.
On also losing Democratic-leaning Pennsylvania, he said, "At the end of the day, there's nothing more we could have done."

Everything You Need To Know: Upcoming Temple College Bond Election
Temple College has been trusted for generations to provide academic excellence in our community at one-third the cost of public universities. Simply put - without Temple College, many area residents would not have the opportunity to obtain an education and/or the training they need to get good jobs or to advance in their careers.
Even with aging facilities, Temple College has requested taxpayer approval of only $33 million in general obligation bonds over the past 50 years. Recently, the Temple College Board of Trustees called a $124.9 million bond election for Saturday, May 1, 2021. What could this investment bring to our community? Passage of the bond will help Temple College:
Prepare Students for the Global and High-Tech Workplace. Many of Temple College's facilities are between 50 to 60 years old. These facilities lack modern technology and have mechanical and electrical systems near end of life. This bond proposal will give students the 21st Century technology and tools they need.
Address the Shortage of Health Care Workers. Temple College is committed to addressing the shortage in health care workers by increasing the capacity of health care training programs, including doubling the size of its nursing program. Temple College nursing students have a 100% placement rate upon graduation, with the majority of these graduates working in the Central Texas area.
Expand Opportunities for Temple Residents. The bond proposal will fund a University Center that will allow students to earn bachelor's or master's degrees on Temple College's campus through its university partners.
Prepare Students for 21st Century Careers. The bond proposal will fund an innovative Workforce Training Center that will serve as an economic driver for our region. Temple College will provide critical career and technology and workforce training programs to prepare the workforce of tomorrow for high-demand, high-wage career opportunities.
Projects to be funded by this bond proposal include a major Health Sciences Center expansion and renovation, new Temple College Main Building (including a University Center, Workforce Training Center and Student Enrollment Services), new Visual Arts Center, and new Campus Services Center.
Established in 1926, Temple College serves more than 5,000 students each year. For generations, Temple College has provided affordable and accessible higher education opportunities allowing many students to obtain important college degrees, transfer to a university, or obtain career training to enter the workforce. Today's students are entering a highly competitive, global marketplace and more than ever need to hit the ground running.
This bond proposal is centered not only around providing students affordable and accessible higher education opportunities but also attracting new businesses and strengthening economic development within Temple. Temple College helps provide a skilled workforce in our community and, more importantly, establishes lifelong careers that provide excellent wages and ongoing support of the robust Central Texas economy.
Because of growth, nursing and other health care programs are housed in temporary spaces at Temple College. This bond proposal will double the size of its nursing programs and fund urgently needed facilities for learning, training and clinical education. Temple College nursing programs have a 100% placement rate upon graduation, with most of these graduates working in the Central Texas area.
The proposed Temple College Main Building will include a University Center, allowing students to earn bachelor's or master's degrees on Temple College's campus through its university partners. One example of a bachelor's degree that will be offered is a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, as many hospitals now require this degree for nursing hires and career advancement. Additionally, a Workforce Training Center will serve as an economic driver for our region. If approved, these facilities and the remainder of the bond projects will be completed by 2026 when Temple College celebrates its 100th anniversary.
The state of Texas does not pay for construction of new educational facilities for community colleges. Texas law permits Temple College to determine its tax rate for debt service to pay for educational facilities. Passage of the Temple College bond will cost taxpayers no more than $3.63 a month on a $100,000 home, or $43.56 a year. There is no tax impact on those 65 years of age or older who have applied for and received a tax-rate freeze on their homesteads. Additionally, over 50% of the taxes to fund the bond proposal will be paid by commercial and industrial businesses in the community, and not by residents.
Temple College has used its resources wisely. This bond proposal provides needed improvements in a financially responsible manner and will be overseen by the Temple College Board of Trustees, all of whom unanimously support this bond proposal.
As a community, we have placed trust in our educational partners to prepare students for the global and high-tech workplace. Not only does the Chamber endorse this bond, it asks you to confidently vote YES for this bond proposal. Support Temple College as it continues educating generations of students and builds for the future.
VOTE YES AND VOTE EARLY, TEMPLE!

Another school year is beginning and our Movement Program is ready to get "moving"!!! Our goal is to incorporate movement experiences that will encourage children to become physically active and promote a healthy lifestyle now as young individuals & later as adults. Children can use movement to learn about their bodies and skills they can achieve in a positive & fun environment.
Being physically active can support the development of the whole child……….
Listed below are the areas we will be covering this year with a few examples for each area.
We want to intervene at an early age to educate the whole child and to teach that being active can be FUN!!!

Lewis Hamilton only dropped F1 appeal 'because Michael Masi said he would leave'
01/11/2022 F1
A 'senior source' has alleged that Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes dropped their appeal against the result of the F1 world title because Michael Masi said he would leave his position as FIA race director.
Hamilton lost the 2021 championship to Red Bull's Max Verstappen after an almighty cock-up involving FIA race director Michael Masi.
During the safety car period towards the end of the season-ending race in Abu Dhabi, Masi failed to apply the rules correctly, and only some of the lapped cars were allowed to overtake.
That allowed Verstappen, on much fresher tyres, to pull up behind Hamilton and overtake him on the final lap to clinch the race win and with it a maiden world championship crown.
An initial appeal by Mercedes against the result of the race was rejected by stewards later that night. The Silver Arrows then gave notice of their intention to appeal that decision.
But Toto Wolff and co. opted against another appeal after talks with the FIA "to create clarity for the future", a Mercedes statement read.
There have been question marks hanging over Masi's future ever since the Abu Dhabi controversy, which itself came at the end of a season in which the application of the sport's rules faced scrutiny on several occasions.
Do you think Lewis Hamilton will retire from F1 this season? Let us know in the comments section.
According to the BBC, a 'senior source' has alleged that Mercedes only dropped their appeal against the result of the season-ending race after agreeing a deal with the FIA.
The deal, which Mercedes deny, would have seen Masi and FIA head of single-seater technical matters Nikolas Tombazis, depart from their positions ahead of the 2022 season.
As it stands, both men remain in their respective jobs. As does Hamilton, although the Briton is currently "disillusioned" according to Wolff.
"As a racer, his heart will say: 'I need to continue' because he's at the peak of his game," Wolff said.
"But we have to overcome the pain that was caused upon him. I am in a daily dialogue with him. But there is not a lot to talk (about) at the moment. Each of us copes in their own way with the feelings we have at the moment.
"I just need to do the utmost I can to help him to overcome the feelings that he has in order for him to return strong with a love of the sport and trust in the decision-making of the sport next year.
"And we wish very much that this would be the case."

Q: backup exec 2012: what are catalogs and inventories? in the backup exec 2012 environment what are the catalogs and the inventories ?
I have read the manual but honestly I have not understood.
I am sorry for my basic question but it seems that what I have written is not enough for serverfault..

A: I'm sure you can simply look in the docs...but here's my definition...
Catalog = a list of the files/folders/dates/etc backed up WITHIN a backup file that BUE created.  Used to do a restore of files typically.  If the catalog has expired in the BUE database, then you'll need to run a catalog on the backup media in order to restore files from them.  It tells BUE what is inside the backup media.
Inventory = when run against a Library or Backup-to-Disk-Folder will inventory that location looking for backup files and listing them along with what media set they are in (and therefore when/if they are overwriteable, appendable, etc.).
So, let's say you have an LTO tape from 2 years ago.  You'd insert it, then run an Inventory on the tape library/drive.  This will tell BUE what is in the drive and what backup media files exist.  Then you'd run a catalog against those media files in order to see what actually exists WITHIN those backup media files to be able to restore.
Hope that helps.

The temple was built by King Devanampiya Tissa who ruled in the ancient Sri Lankan capital of Anuradhapura After 500 children of high-caste were ordained, Isurumuniya was built for them to reside. King Kasyapa I (473-491 AD) renovated this viharaya and named it as "Boupulvan, Kasubgiri Radmaha Vehera". This name is derived from names of his 2 daughters and his name. There is a viharaya connected to a cave and above is a cliff. A small stupa is built on it. It can be seen that the constructional work of this stupa belong to the present period. Lower down on both sides of a cleft, in a rock that appears to rise out of a pool, have been carved the figures of elephants. On the rock is carved the figure of a horse. The carving of Isurumuniya lovers on the slab has been brought from another place and placed it there. A few yards away from this vihara is the Ranmasu Uyana.
Isurumuniya Lovers-Pem-Yuwala-Dutugemunu's son Saliya and the law caste (Sadol Kula) maiden Asokamala whom he loved.
6th Century Gupta style carving. The woman, seated on the man's lap, lifts a warning finger, probably as a manifestation of her coyness; but the man carries on regardless. The figures may represent Dutugemunu's son Saliya and the law caste (Sadol Kula) maiden Asokamala whom he loved. It's known that he gave up the throne for her.
The above Brahmi inscription was inscribed at the original place where the Isurumuniya Lovers were originally sculptured and placed. It is a special one as a letters in this inscription is 3 inches x 4 inches in size. After donating Vessagiriya to Maha Sangha this sculpture would have been removed and placed at its present place. The Lovers in the sculptured plaque are King Kuvera Vaisrawana and his Queen Kuni. Ramayana states that Vaisrawana who lived in Vessagiriya ruled Sri Lanka from Lankapura before Rawana.

The four-year-old is getting more protection at school and around London.
Prince George is getting heightened security at school and around London after being targeted by an ISIS threat, TMZ reports. There will reportedly be "beefed up" security at his school, St. Thomas's Battersea, and more officers will accompany him and his grandmother, Carole Middleton (Kate's mom), during their outings together.
Two weeks ago, an alleged supporter of the Islamic State group went on trial in London, accused of encouraging attacks on the four-year-old prince. Prosecutors said Husnain Rashid—a 32-year-old former mosque teacher in northwest England—provided an "e-toolkit for terrorism" and encouraged attacks on a range of targets, including "injecting poison into supermarket ice creams and targeting Prince George at his first school."
The Guardian reports that one of Rashid's posts included a photo of George, his school, and the message, "Even the royal family will not be left alone." Last week, after previously saying he did nothing wrong, Rashid admitted to a number of terror offenses, including encouraging terrorism, according to CNN.
Prince George—the eldest child of Prince William and Kate Middleton, and third in line for the throne—was recently seen at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's royal wedding on May 19, where he served as a page boy. He was more recently spotted with his mother and sister, Princess Charlotte, for an outing in Norfolk, England, last week.
According to TMZ, Prince George's next appearance will be at Trooping the Colour on Sunday with the rest of the royal family at Buckingham Palace. As expected, there'll be a "bigger security presence than usual," according to the site.
The royal family is choosing not to lay low or retreat in the wake of the ISIS threat, a source close to the family told TMZ.
