Bridesmaids Movie Review
Now available on Blu-ray and DVD (Buy on Amazon)
Why should men have all the fun? Featuring an almost entirely female cast, Bridesmaids does what few comedies have done before: it delivers a story both about and for women, but with all the R-rated, raunchy and hilarious jokes typically seen in guy's films. Bridesmaids is the funniest movie of the year.
Properly referred to as the female version of The Hangover, Bridesmaids seeks to get into the heads of women leading up to a wedding. The wedding itself, and the bond between the bride and groom, aren't important; instead, it's the camaraderie - or lack thereof - that drives the story. The movie may not be as funny as The Hangover, but it comes damn close.
In Bridesmaids, Kristen Wiig co-writes and stars as Annie, a depressed woman whose life is in the crapper. Her bakery business has failed, her love life consists of sleeping with a handsome but emotionally uninterested man (Jon Hamm) and her best friend (Maya Rudolph) is getting married - and has new friends are looking to upstage her as maid of honor.
As with other Judd Apatow-produced comedies, Bridesmaids has plenty of heart and character, but it's the nonstop laughs that will win over audiences. Unlike many chick films, nothing is off limits; Bridesmaids has plenty of toilet humor and grotesque jokes and the characters get themselves into just as many stupid, ridiculous situations as their male counterparts in other films.
Much of the film's success rests with Kristen Wiig, who, after several hilarious supporting performances in recent years cements herself as leading woman material. Wiig is hilarious, delivering an awkward, yet sentimental performance. Her character is far from flawless, and many of the problems she and the other bridesmaids encounter in the story are her fault, but she's easy to relate to, easy to like. Wiig has mastered the ability to make the most of each line of dialogue.
The rest of the cast is also solid. Rose Byrne is great as Annie's nemesis; she takes advantage of the fact that it's never clear whether her actions are malicious or only perceived as such by Annie.
The real surprise is Melissa McCarthy, the "overweight" bridesmaid, who delivers a hilariously brusque and crude performance. While her character could have easily been kept to stereotype, McCarthy elevates the material, highlighted by a touching scene between she and Annie in the third act. The role isn't as career defining as Zach Galifianakis' in The Hangover, but it comes close.
Chris O'Dowd also is excellent as Annie's love interest; while often understated and not traditionally handsome, he won over the women in the theater almost instantaneously.
There's little downside to Bridesmaids. As with so many Judd Apatow-produced movies, the comedy balances sentimentality with crude, exaggerated humor and finds perfect synergy between the two. At the end of the year, it would not be surprising at all to find Bridesmaids is still the best comedy of 2011.

Michael Leighton | 7/19/2018, 2:21 p.m.
A controversial nominee to the U.S. Court of Appeals from Oregon had his nomination derailed in the Senate Thursday after the only Republican black member of the Senate made clear he couldn't vote for him.
Ryan Bounds, 44, an assistant U.S. Attorney in Oregon, had been under fire for making racist, sexist and homophobic attacks on multiculturalism as a student at Stanford back in his early 20s. But his nomination was expected to pass with Republican votes. Just a day earlier, a vote to end debate on the nomination passed 50-49 with just GOP votes.
But Thursdays afternoon, CNN, citing multiple sources, said that South Carolina Republican Sen. Tim Scott indicated during a Senate lunch that he couldn't vote for Bounds. The concerns revolved around the content of his writings while at Stanford and the fact that Bounds did not disclose the writings to a bipartisan committee in Oregon that had recommended him for the Ninth Circuit.
One source described that there was then a "jail break" of Republican senators with concerns, and once it was clear the vote was going to go down, several others senators also said they didn't want any part of voting for him, CNN reported.
Majority Leader Mitch McConnell pulled the confirmation vote just minutes before it was set to begin. Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, who supported Bounds, said the president has also withdrawn the nomination.
Bounds was selected by President Trump for a lifetime appointment to the court, He was born in Umatilla, Ore. and raised in nearby Hermiston. He was a member of the conservative Federalist Society.
Oregon Sens. Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley, both Democrats, had objected to the nomination and protested his confirmation in speeches on the Senate floor.
Nominees usually cannot move forward over the objection of home state senators but this year McConnell and Grassley ignored that tradition.
After Bounds' defeat, Wyden and Merkley said they would be interested in working with Republicans to find a new nominee and will consult with a state selection committee which will forward names to the White House.
Bounds issued a statement saying he was proud to have been nominated and plans to continue in his role as a federal prosecutor.

What would it be like for you if somebody said "I'll give you a gift and with this gift, you can do anything you want—anything!" What would that mean to you?
What if somebody came up to you and said, "I'm going to give you the possibility." If somebody handed you a magic wand and said, "Here, here's the possibility. I...I give you this magic wand. This is...this can make it possible for you to be fulfilled." What would that mean to you? What would that mean to you?
"That I give you a gift and with this gift just like Aladdin's lamp, with this gift you don't have to suffer any more." What would that...what...what would that mean to you? I mean, if somebody did that—I mean, it's like, if somebody just said all those things to you, I mean, what would that mean to you?
Wouldn't it be like, "Wow"? "Yeah, oh, man! That would be incredible. That I could just wave away all my problems? Just, whssst, gone? That I could accept a gift, be given a gift that is priceless, again and again and again?" Yes, yes, yes!
But you know, that's exactly what has happened. That's what life means. Life isn't this dreary thing that you have turned it into. It isn't. It actually means receiving the most priceless gift again and again and again and again and again. And never, ever have to say, "That's enough." Keep accepting, keep accepting, and it's being given, and it's being given, and it's being given, and it's being given.
That you have the possibility to do anything. Anything you want. You can do something hideous, or you can do something incredible. Now the thing is, when it would come to one of those things - hideous or incredible - you would go, "I will do something incredible." And the definition of incredible would be that "people would admire me." Because it's just our habit. Because we don't do things for ourselves. We do things for ourselves that other people will look at and go, "What a nice guy!"
And it's a bad habit.
People have come up with excuses that are just grand. I mean they're just incredibly good, but dumb. I mean it's like, "… but isn't that selfish?" All right. Just go that route.
So, you...maybe 40 years old, 50 years old, 60 years old, 70 years old, 80 years old. Still healthy, or decently healthy, or marginally healthy.
So go to the hospital and find somebody who's dying. And give them four days of your life—four days here, four days there, two days there, two days there. Do it! I mean, that would be incredibly unselfish thing to do, right?! But you can't do it—even if you want to. The time you have is only yours. You can't give it to somebody. If we could give time away—our time, this existence, away—there would be no poor people in this world. (You understand that, right?) There would be no poverty. Because all the poor people could then sell their time to the rich people.
And every time you'd, like, you know, had too many parties, and kind of running out of money, you sell one more day. And eventually, you know, it would get to be like, "Okay, one hour. I'll...I'll...million bucks? One hour." Just But you can't do it!
You can't do it. Because what is yours is yours! This is the rule! You come. You are alive. And one day you go. And you're not enamored by life! Here's the problem. You celebrate your birthday once a year.
And you think about death just about every day. How can this be? So, let's put to rest the "selfish" bit and get on with the business of accepting this life that has been—and you can say—"given to us" if you want. It doesn't matter if you don't say—"It wasn't given. It was plopped here; it was dumped here" or….it doesn't matter—you have it!
And how do you begin to accept this, to really understand the value of the gift that you've been given?

One company is stepping forward and claiming an HR role to hire several for Atlanta manager jobs.
HBF, a hospitality company that manages about 30 restaurants at Atlanta's Hartsfield Jackson International Airport, is reportedly hiring more than 200 new employees.
The employees will all be hired by July.
HBF announced that it will hold a job fair Tuesday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Atlanta Marriott Century Center.
The company is hiring for numerous positions, including cashiers, servers, food preparation workers, bartenders and managers.
They ask that people who attend the job fair bring a resume. Professional dress is always preferred during interviews.
The company will be recruiting for Chick-fil-a, Varasano's Pizzeria & Great Wraps at the Atlanta Airport (ATL). This event will be held on Monday June 24, 2013 & Tuesday June 25, 2013 from 10am- 3:00pm at the Atlanta Marriot Century Center Hotel – 2000 Century Blvd NE Atlanta, GA 30345. You must have a resume to be interviewed.
Good news for job seekers – a new survey from Robert Half shows that CFOs are hiring for Atlanta professional jobs.
Twelve percent of chief financial officers (CFOs) in the Atlanta area expect to add new professional-level positions in the third quarter, according to the Atlanta Professional Employment Forecast from Robert Half.
Thirteen percent of respondents will not be hiring, even to fill an open position, and 3 percent plan to reduce staff levels. Another 72 percent said they will hire for roles that open during the next three months.
Nearly nine in 10 (89 percent) CFOs expressed confidence in their company's growth potential for the quarter, with 42 percent of respondents saying they are very confident.
Expansion and growth is leading to more executive jobs in Atlanta.
Numerex Corp., a provider of on-demand and interactive machine-to-machine (M2M) enterprise solutions, has hired three people for various jobs.
"Numerex continues to grow and expand its M2M business organically and through acquisition, which requires us to continuously manage our resources – both human and financial – to create the efficiencies necessary to deliver best-in-class innovative products, services, and support," stated Stratton Nicolaides, chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Numerex.
Flynt assumes responsibility for Numerex's global finance and accounting activities and will report to the company's CEO. Rick joins Numerex most recently from Immucor Inc. where he served as its CFO. Immucor was formerly listed on NASDAQ before the sale of the company. He joined Immucor in December 2007.
Catherall will be responsible for identifying new merger and acquisition opportunities as well as new strategic partners. He will also continue to be responsible for Numerex's administrative, human resources and legal functions.

Treble has published a list of the best songs of the decade so far, it's implied in the intro that albums should follow.
It's a one song per artist list.
97) David Bowie - Where Are We Now?
95) Das Racist - hahahaha, jk?
3 El-P produced albums in the top 30, I like that ! Though it probably means that RTJ will completely be eclipsed by its follow up in the long haul.

The business giant Amazon will soon open its second headquarter in North America. For this, Amazon will invest around $5 billion for the construction work. Amazon made an announcement regarding this in a press release issued on Thursday.
With its second headquarter, Amazon will create job opportunities for 50,000 candidates with a high pay scale which will add more employees to its ongoing job creation.
The company has also estimated its direct hiring and investment. Construction and operation will be able to create thousands of job opportunities. Along with this, it will also generate billions of dollars bringing additional investment in the city where the HQ2 will be constructed.
As per a source, the company has listed Toronto in its list where the HQ2 will be set up. There is a lot of scope in Toronto as it has a developing economic technology and as it produces high-quality software engineers. Since many years, the company also tried out in many universities to search for more talented candidates. But at last the company chose North America as they found more talent candidates in the city. The list also had cities like Boston, Pittsburgh, Chicago, and Atlanta.
While choosing the location for its second headquarter, Amazon has put some preferences like the location should have a metropolitan area, and one million people should live in it. The environment of the area should be business-friendly, stable and growing. The community living in the areas should have creative thinking capacity in real estates. The area must have best technical talented candidates.
The upcoming HQ2 will be a full-fledged headquarters of the company, and it will be not like a satellite office. With the new HQ2, Amazon will also hire new talented team and executives. Senior authorities later can decide whether to post them in HQ1, HQ2 or both the headquarters. Apart from this, Amazon will give an opportunity for the one currently working in HQ1 to move to HQ2 as per their preferences.
Currently, around 380,000 employees are working in the company and provide various innovative programs to its employees like Leave Share and Ramp Back. Amazon has been ranked as No. 1 company on Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies and ranked second as Most Admired Companies on Fortune's Worlds. Besides, it has also been ranked No. 1 in the Harris Poll's Corporate Reputation Survey and ranked second as U.S. most desirable companies on LinkedIn.
Amazon has provided a great platform to 100,000 small business with over $100,000 sales. Till now around 2 billion items from these small business has been shipped to 185 countries. Most of the items that are being sold by Amazon are from small business, and due to this opportunity, it has created more than 600,000 job opportunity worldwide.

El síndrome de exceso aparente de mineralocorticoides es un mal genético autosómico recesivo que causa hipertensión (alta presión sanguínea) e hipopotasemia (niveles anormalmente bajos de potasio). Esta condición responde al tratamiento de glucocorticoides. Resulta de mutaciones in el gen HSD11B2, que codifica la isoenzima del riñón de 11β-hidroxiesteroide dehidrogenasa tipo 2. En un individuo no afectado, esta isoenzima inactiva el cortisol circulante por la cortisona metabolizada menos activa. La mutación que ocasiona inactividad lleva a altas concentraciones locales de cortisol en el riñón. Cortisol en altas concentraciones puede causar una reacción cruzada y activar el receptor mineralocorticoide, dando cómo resultado efectos similares a aldosterona en el riñón. Esto es lo que causa la hipocalemia, la hipertensión y la hipernatremia  asociados con el síndrome.

Otras condiciones tales como el síndrome de Liddle pueden aparentar las características clínicas de EAM, así que la diagnosis puede ser hecha calculando la relación cortisol/cortisona libres en orina. Dado que los pacientes con EAM crean menos cortisona, esta relación será mayor en los pacientes con EAM en comparación con los pacientes no afectados. De otra forma, se puede diferenciar entre los dos síndromes al administrar un diurético ahorrador de potasio. Los pacientes con síndrome de Liddle no sólo responderán a un diurético que une al canal de sodio epitelial, cuando aquellos con EAM responderán a un diurético que una el canal de sodio epitelial o el receptor mineralocorticoide.

EAM es una condición extremadamente rara, con menos de 100 casos registrados en el mundo.
El consumo de regaliz también puede causar una forma temporal de EAM debido a su habilidad de bloquear 11β-hidroxiesteroide dehidrogenasa tipo 2, causando la elevación de altos niveles de cortisol.

Genética

EAM es un desorden hereditario autosómico recesivo. Esto significa que el gen defectuoso responsable del mismo está localizado en un autosoma, y dos copias del gen defectuoso ( uno hereditario de cada padre) son requeridos para nacer con este desorden. Los padres de un indiviuo con un desorden autosómico recesivo tienen una copia del gen defectuoso, pero por lo general no presenta ningún signo o síntoma del desorden.

Byron Bowers Biography
Described by LA Weekly as "a comic who's got big ideas and big plans to go big places," Byron Bowers is a stand-up comedian and actor that has toured nationally with Dave Chappelle, Hannibal Buress, John Caparulo, and Eric Andre and The Eric Andre Show Live.

If Masters of Atlantis isn't the Great American Novel, it's surely the Great American Comic Novel. Say the words "great novel" and one instantly thinks of a work of fiction that tackles important moral questions, significant social issues, and moments of historic import; the sort of book one imagines was written by someone with a brow constantly furrowed in thought, living in a room with a single window facing a brick wall, and who only took brief breaks from the Underwood in order to light unfiltered Camels, all the better to furrow his or her brow even more. But does a nation's great novel have to adopt a stern and forbidding mien? By my own definition a great national novel should be one that you could hand to an extraterrestrial and say, "Here's the one book that tells you all about the essential character of the people whose nation you've just landed in/enslaved/vaporized." And by that criteria Masters of Atlantis by Charles Portis (author of True Grit) is, for me, the Great American Novel. And I like to imagine it was written in the summer on a porch shaded by wisteria vines, the author stopping occasionally for a snack of iced tea and red velvet cake.
From the outside looking in, America's personality dial is permanently set to 11 with citizens who are charming, maddening, innocent, foolish, xenophobic, gullible, optimistic, crafty, adventurous, bigoted, energetic, and ignorant, not forgetting all the go-getters, do-gooders and flim-flam men. This crazy quilt of emotions and characters is brilliantly portrayed in Masters, woven into a story that revolves around what might be the core of the American character: belief. More on this later.
The novel opens at the end of World War One with young Lamar Jimmerson, an American soldier, being sold the Codex Pappus, a bundle of papers that's supposed to represent the collected wisdom of the lost city of Atlantis. And from that beginning, Jimmerson, who has an unshakable belief in his Atlantean lore, more or less accidentally founds a cult called Gnomonism with himself at its head. His title is the "Master." The cult's popularity waxes and wanes, reaching its zenith in the 1930s, and ending in that most American of dwellings, a double-wide trailer home. The plot, like so many of the characters in the book, is almost rudderless, but this is far from being a fault, it's simply reflecting the rootless, peripatetic side of American life.
Along the way Jimmerson is aided and hindered by a cavalcade of American archetypes and eccentrics. The most notable of the bunch is Austin Popper and his sidekick Squanto, a talking blue jay. Popper is the distillate that would result from boiling down Elmer Gantry, Bob Hope and Foghorn Leghorn. Jimmerson is a kindly fool whose affability and credulity blinds him to the charlatans and nitwits who are pulled into Gnomonism's weak gravitational field. The female characters, it should be noted, are the only ones who seem to be possessed with an ounce of common sense.
Portis' comic style is best described as deadpan; he tells tall tales in the plainest possible way, and that matter-of-factness, his attention to the niggling details of eccentricity, produces some sublime humor. Portis' comedy is never shouty or jokey; it's like a low frequency vibration that turns solids into liquids, or in this case, turns some of the more self-important aspects of the American character into comic gold. And like the very best comic writers (P.G. Wodehouse springs to mind) you can flip to almost any page of the book and find something delightful:
"Through a friend at the big Chicago marketing firm of Targeted Sales, Inc., he got his hands on a mailing list titled Odd Birds of Illinois and Indiana, which, by no means exhaustive, contained the names of some seven hundred men who ordered strange merchandise through the mail, went to court often, wrote letters to the editor, wore unusual headgear, kept rooms that were filled with rocks or old newspapers. In short, independent thinkers who might be more receptive to the Atlantean lore than the general run of men."
"You think you can treat me this way because I'm poor and have to go to night law school."
"All law schools should be conducted at night."
"He boiled some eggs, a long business at this altitude, and made coffee with the same water. He ate two eggs and left two for Cezar. On one he idly scrawled, Help. Captive. Gypsy caravan."
If there's one grand, unifying theme to the novel it's Portis' identification of the fact that Americans are the most enthusiastic believers on the planet. Their nation was founded, in part, by people looking to follow religious beliefs that Europeans viewed as dangerous or eccentric, and ever since then the US has lead the world in the production of cults and crazes, everything from Mormonism to Scientology to birthers. It's a nation that sometimes seems to be filled with people who think that with just the right formula or mantra or revelation or algorithm, the final, absolute, one-size-fits-all Truth will be revealed to the chosen. And no other country could produce so many social clubs like the Shriners, Moose Lodge, Optimists, and Rotarians, just to name a few. It would seem that if you took three random Americans and locked them in a room, after an hour they would emerge with a new religion, conspiracy theory or service club. Possibly all three. But what Americans believe in most of all is America; it's a cult and a religion, and if you don't believe me just take note of how omnipresent the American flag is in the American landscape. The US is awash in representations of Old Glory, and in that regard it's unique among democracies. Flag worship is the litmus test for any totalitarian state, but in the US of A the common citizens have turned the Stars and Stripes into a red, white and blue Shroud of Turin.
I've read Masters several times, and what motivated me to do this review is The Master, Paul Thomas Anderson's latest film. It's a pretty poor effort (my review) about the leader of a Scientology-like cult. It's really the photographic negative, unfunny version of Masters of Atlantis, but it made me wish someone, preferably the Coen brothers, would take a crack at filming Portis' novel. But until that happens, and you want to experience a fictional look at America's obsession with cults, stick to Portis.

Thanks. This review was worth the wait. ;-)
Dana King said...
I read MASTERS OF ATLANTIS for the first time a few weeks ago. Wonderful book, and you're right: the Coen Brothers could make a wonderful movie from it.
Cary Watson said...
I actually can't imagine anyone else directing it other than a risen from the dead Stanley Kubrick.
Coen Brothers was my thought too. Possibly also Wes Anderson
Anderson might be a good choice if he could curb his eccentric style. Masters doesn't need extra oddness.

So pleased to see this...micro-groundswell of appreciation for a comic novel that has given me more pleasure than any book in the last few years. Thanks to Mr. Lang, above, I now know that David Cross actually has the cover art for the hardback of "Atlantis" tattooed on his arm. (It makes me like his movie "Hits" all the more.) I myself first learned about "Atlantis" through a blog posting by the late D.G. Myers, an intimidatingly erudite English professor who died last year, way way too young. Check out Myers' very insightful celebration of the book:

Thanks, Anon. And thanks for the link to the blog. If you haven't already, read the Charles Portis Miscellany that came out last year. Must reading for Portisophiles.

This information was confirmed also by the former Lithuanian Minister Audrius Butkevicius, who refused to expand on the details.
"Intelligence agencies of Lithuania did participate in the operation of transfer of Mitrokhin and his archive to Great Britain, this became one of most sensible impacts on the KGB during all the history of this most secret organization," the newspaper is quoting the former intelligence chief of the Ministry of Defense of Lithuania, colonel Virginius Cesnuliavicius as saying.

Last day at Knights Ferry?
Spent 11 hours at Knights Ferry today. I caught some fish, lost some fish, got squirted by rafters with water cannons; read my new Gierach book on the shore, fell asleep on the shore then woke up to ants sleeping in my leg hair. Pretty good day. Had success with the usual hare's ear and a nice burnt orange pupa I picked up at Ted Fay Fly Shop in Dunsmuir. Once I had lost all the patterns that were working for me, I turned to the pupa and it turned out to be really fishy.
With the flows just over 400 cfs, Knights Ferry has been fishing well, but apparently the flows will be going back up to 2000 this week. It was fun while it lasted.

The Difference Between Saigon Cinnamon & Regular Cinnamon
By Sanjana Gupta Updated January 6, 2020
Sanjana Gupta
Sanjana has been a health writer and editor since 2014. She has written extensively for platforms like Insider, Verywell Mind, and Times Internet. Her work spans various health-related topics, including fitness, nutrition, mental health, and wellness.
Saigon cinnamon is used widely as a spice.

You may be surprised to learn that there are not one or two but multiple different varieties of cinnamon. Saigon cinnamon, also known as Vietnamese cinnamon, is one of them. Here's what you need to know about Vietnamese cinnamon versus other cinnamons.
Read more: Is a Teaspoon of Ground Cinnamon Good for You?
The Types of Cinnamon
Colorado State University explains that cinnamon sticks are actually obtained from the bark of cinnamon trees. This spice has been used in foods, fragrances, religious ceremonies and medicinal preparations across many cultures around the world for centuries.
A March 2014 study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry notes that the genus Cinnamomum has four main species of cinnamon. The first one (Cinnamomum verum), is considered true cinnamon. This is the Sri Lankan or Ceylon variety of cinnamon; Sri Lanka continues to be the only regular supplier of true cinnamon bark and its leaf oils.
Of the other three varieties, one is Vietnamese or Saigon cinnamon (Cinnamomum loureiroi) and the other two are Chinese cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia) and Indonesian cinnamon (Cinnamomum burmannii). The authors of the study note that while there are several other species of cinnamon as well, these are the four most economically valuable varieties of this spice.
If you've heard the term cassia used in reference to cinnamon, it's because the other three varieties of cinnamon apart from true cinnamon are classified as cassia, according to a November 2014 study published in the journal Food Additives & Contaminants.
Per Colorado State University, the cinnamon you usually see in the grocery store is most likely one of the cassia varieties of cinnamon, so it's possible that you've been using Vietnamese cinnamon sticks, powders and oils without realizing it. Cassia cinnamon varieties are often cheaper than true cinnamon.

Vietnamese Cinnamon Versus Other Cinnamon
So, what's the difference between all these types of cinnamon? Do Vietnamese cinnamon sticks taste or smell any different from the other types of cinnamon? Are they better or worse in terms of nutritional and medicinal properties? Are there any benefits to buying Vietnamese cinnamon versus other cinnamons?
The authors of the March 2014 study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry note that among all the types of cinnamon, true cinnamon, or Sri Lankan cinnamon is considered to have the most complex and delicate flavor. In fact, the unique flavors of many English and Mexican desserts are attributed to this variety of cinnamon.
Saigon cinnamon, on the other hand, is believed to have the strongest flavor. The essential oils within the cinnamon bark give it its signature aroma and flavor. The strength of the aroma and flavor depends on how much essential oil the bark has. The authors of the study state that Vietnamese cinnamon sticks usually have a higher cinnamaldehyde content than the other varieties of cinnamon, giving them the strongest flavor.
In terms of health benefits, the study finds that all the varieties of cinnamon offer several health benefits, including lipid and blood sugar regulation, beneficial antioxidant and antimicrobial activity and treatment of respiratory tract infections, digestive disorders and diabetes.
When it comes to nutrition, Colorado State University notes that all the varieties of cinnamon are rich in dietary fiber, manganese and antioxidants. However, cassia varieties of cinnamon, including Saigon cinnamon, have higher levels of a compound known as coumarin, which can damage your liver if you consume it in large amounts.
If you're considering taking Saigon cinnamon supplements, or supplements of any other type of cinnamon for that matter, it is recommended that you consult your doctor first. The same goes for adding large amounts of any type of cinnamon to your diet.

Grijben, an independent non-fiction publisher, announces its launch on the unsuspecting global market. The new publishing house is dedicated to non-fiction, with an initial focus on foreign languages and music books.
Dubbed a "micro-publisher" by founder and managing editor James Paul Wallis, Grijben was born as a passion project and a creative outlet. "I've always been in love with publishing. What inspires me in particular is how words and design combine to share knowledge with the reader."
Although working in a small-scale set-up means going without some of the resources and clout of a traditional publisher, working at a small scale can have advantages, said James. "My first job at an unconventional educational publisher gave me the bug for a full-stack approach, where editing and design is an integrated process," he explained, "which can help with presenting information in a way that's more easily digested or is easier on the eye. Part of the drive behind Grijben comes from trying to find certain kinds of books I wanted, for example for language learning, and feeling it must be possible to make something more engaging than what was on offer."
As for how you might say Grijben, according to James it's [gɹaɪbən] (rhymes with "tribe'n"), but you can say it however you like. It sounds particularly fun in Dutch.

Still Tied Up In Knots - IRS and DOL Guidance on Same-Sex Marriage Following Supreme Court's Windsor Decision
As we previously reported, in United States v. Windsor, 133 S. Ct. 2675 (2013), the U.S. Supreme Court held section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act to be unconstitutional. Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act provides that, in any federal statute, the term "marriage" means a legal union between a man and a woman as husband and wife, and that the term "spouse" refers to a person of the opposite sex.
In response to Windsor, the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") issued Revenue Ruling 2013-17 (the "First Ruling") and Frequently Asked Questions (the "FAQs") to provide guidance relating to the marital status of a same-sex spouse for purposes of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). As follow-up guidance to the First Ruling, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2013-61 (the "Second Ruling") to provide special administrative procedures for employers to recover overpayments of employment taxes with respect to certain benefits provided to same-sex spouses. In addition, the U.S. Department of Labor (the "DOL") issued Technical Release 2013-04 (the "Release") to provide general guidance on the meaning of the terms "spouse" and "marriage" under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") and certain provisions of the Code subject to its rulemaking authority.

The sails in your sail locker make a huge difference when cruising longterm offshore. You need to be able to pull out different weight clothes for different wind angles and strengths. In this video we try to break things down as simple as possible without boring you. Hopefully we achieved a good balance.
You can find our current reefing chart here. This is our bible when the wind starts to build. It's amazing how brain dead we can get while on passage. This laminated chart sits right beside our navigation computer all the time. Seems simple stupid but it works and we do actually rely on it heavily and repeatedly. Make your own with the Excel file or print out the PDF version and start with that.
Hi there – I love the informative videos and just how your journey started – corporate life is a theif of time .if it wasn't for the $ no one would do it – as for selling your house as you say and no set retirement fund ,, well most people have nothing and only a boring house in the suburbs that may or may not be saleable….?
We are also wondering some of the same questions as Cila. We cruised shorter term about a decade ago, and ended up buying health insurance back then. Just wondering how you two have done that? We now have 2 younger kids so our appetite for risk is a little less, so we definitely want to make sure the health care end of things is taken care of…any insight you may have would be greatly appreciated. Cheers…and love the whiteboard! Just watched the sail inventory vid, awesome stuff!
you guys are amazing! Thank you for all that your teaching us. We will be ready for 2026. We are also from Canada and would like to know more.
Like how long can you stay away from Canada? Do you lose your Health care? Did you guys buy health INS if so who ? how did your start ? Any help would be great.
What should be be doing now to learn?

A mother has taken to Facebook to share her daughter's horrified reaction at a Topshop window display.
Zoë Mason shared a picture of the window of a local store, along with her 'biggest girl's' shocked response to the notably slim mannequins on display.
'My Biggest Girl went into town with her friend after school yesterday. They went around the shops to try to find a birthday present for another friend of theirs,' she explained.
Her post has had almost 500 shares and received comments from equally shocked observers who said that the mannequins looked 'awful' and 'like victims of famine'.
'I'm a size 6/8 and my thighs touch. What size are these supposed to be????' one exclaimed. 'It's a shame because I like Topshop but seeing clothes like this on skeletons doesn't make me imagine them on me (and buying them)'.
GoodtoKnow has reached out to Topshop for comment.


I was employed by one of their franchisees and was treated equivalent as he and his managers treated all the other employees. I have been invited to come back and work for them again, even on a part-time basis. However, one of the managers did tell me later that they almost didn't hire me becouse of how old I was. They decided to give me a chance because I had already invested in purchasing a GPS (for the delivery driver position).


We provide smoother closings by reliably handling this vital step in virtually every home purchase.
We provide direct access to a critical component of virtually every real estate transaction … the title company. The main purpose of title insurance is risk avoidance. Weichert Title examines all state, county, and local records with great care to search for – and cure – possible defects in title. Title insurance insures against things that have occurred PRIOR TO the issuance of the policy.
We produce titles routinely within one week where back title is available and within two weeks where it is not.
We strive to improve communication between lenders, buyers, sellers, and all professionals involved in bringing a transaction successfully to closing. The result: parties working together toward the common goal – closings as scheduled.
Title insurance is a contract which indemnifies against loss arising through defect in the title to real property. More If the title is insurable, the title company will guarantee against loss due to any defects in title not specifically set forth in the policy, and pay all expenses in defense of any lawsuit which attacks the title as insured within the terms of the policy.
To protect against the many possibilities of loss due to title defects, a buyer of real property should purchase an owner's policy.
Nearly all residential mortgages originated today are sold to investors, and the mortgage will likely require a lender's policy to protect only the lender from any loss due to title defects.
A premium is paid only once, customarily at time of closing.

Since its inception, YouTube has been the launching point for countless content creators, many of whom have made considerable income through its ad revenue program. Previously, content creators were able to qualify to benefit from ad revenue after reaching a total of 10,000 lifetime views from their videos. However, YouTube has since changed the requirements for qualifying for these benefits. Now, creators must meet a more stringent criteria, including having 1,000 subscribers with 4,000 hours of viewing time in the past 12 months. This has caused considerable outrage for small content creators, who have argued it is not fair that their channels will no longer be able to receive any income. Users who do not meet this criteria will no longer have access to the tools that allow them to "monetize" their videos.
This is following what was called the "adpocalypse" where the company saw a huge dip in advertisement revenue. Stemming from several controversies that racked YouTube, including bad press that was born from the aftermath of Logan Paul's "suicide forest" vlog, many advertisers stopped paying YouTube to stream their advertisements. This has been cited by many small content creators as being the reason YouTube has made these changes, stating that they are trying to rebuild from the bad press the video gave the company.
While small content creators are complaining about the changes, there is a smaller group of creators that are in full support of them: YouTube's top-tier channels. Channels like Keemstar, Shibby, and PewDiePie all voiced their disapproval with the smaller YouTube community, citing the hardships they faced when first starting off on the video-sharing site.
The coming year will be a test to smaller content creators who will continue to rush to meet these new guidelines in order to keep their monetized videos. Either way, it seems YouTube is not slowing down anytime soon with continuous content being pumped out every day.

View Full Version : New York City On Track For Twice As Many Subway Deaths
Rockntractor
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — New York City officials have called for an investigation into the recent subway deaths in an effort to put the brakes on the number of incidents.
There have been six subway deaths already in 2013. The circumstances in the incidents vary, but Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer said the rash of deaths on the tracks deserves a closer look.
The city is on pace for 100 deaths this year – almost twice as many as last year, Stringer said.
"These accidents have been happening too often and to too many New Yorkers. The time is now to search for answers," Stringer told reporters, including WCBS 880′s Peter Haskell and 1010 WINS' Holli Haerr. "They're something visceral and something tragic."

I know. Let's cut the size of soft drinks. That'll fix things.
You know it's those people frantic for a 20 oz Coke that are propelling themselves onto the train tracks. :friendly_wink:
The trains should be less than 17 ounces.
No more than 7 cars per train.
6 deaths in 2 1/2 weeks is a lot. That doesn't mean the rate will continue throughout the year, though.
I never rode the subways when I was in NYC-the friend I travelled with was afraid of them-fear of crime, not of falling onto the tracks . Are the platforms at all dangerous? Should they put up railings?
In the article they say they can't afford to upgrade the safety features,.
The MTA had previously said safety barriers would not be considered because of the high cost. But Stringer said the hefty price tag should not stop an analysis.
"You can't throw up your hands and say we're paralyzed because we have no financial resources," said Stringer.
He said any option that can save lives is worth considering.
one of them was hit while taking a shit on the tracks, railings wouldn't help there, just a good pressure washer to clean the front of the train.
Which gives me an idea, maybe you could put something like a fire hose or possibly an airbag on the front of the train to lesson the blow or clear the track.
I remember riding the subways as a kid in the 70's in the Bronx. We were smart enough back then to not stand close to the ledge because it happened back in those days as well.
Everyone is in a hurry in NYC. They are probably on their ipod of iphones and not paying attention to their surroundings. Street smarts are dead.

When we lived in NYC, they were euphemistically referred to as "track pizzas".............most were suicides........

5 Predictions for the UK Packaging Industry in 2022
By Tom Smith
Infographic vector created by katemangostar - www.freepik.com
"Where has the year gone?"
You're probably fed up hearing those words already, just as you will be of listening to Mariah Carey on repeat, Christmas advertisements that aren't as great as they used to be, the same old films being played on a loop, and the endless pile of chocolate that builds up.
Like that dreaded phrase, they all crop up at the same time each year without fail.
The end of 2021 is upon us, though. In business terms, there's no better time to reflect on the challenges that have been overcome and the success that has been achieved. It's also the prime opportunity to begin thinking about what's next.
So, yes, while we are saying "where has the year gone," we're also asking ourselves ''what does 2022 have in store?"
As a brief overview, the difficulty with 2022 is that we're still in uncharted waters.
There's no seasonality like there used to be. The industry cannot forecast as it used to, either. The trends and historical data about when peaks in sales will happen is off. When you couple that with the ever-changing demand, you're left scratching your head as to what, actually, is next.
I'm going to give it a damn good go, though. These are my five predictions for what is next for the packaging industry.
1) There will still be caution in investment
People, from a societal point of view, are still unsure of what's in store for them, certainly for the foreseeable. This, mainly, is because we still have the emergency COVID-19 legislation in place until the end of March 2022.
We're still operating under a Sword of Damocles where the knife could drop at any point while we're at the dinner party. At any point, the government can turn around and say "we're shut," should the issue with the COVID-19 virus get out of hand.
Personally, I believe it's a very slim chance that will happen. However, there will be certain businesses — those that were badly burned by the initial impact of the pandemic — that will be continuing to look over their shoulder during the interim.
That's bound to change the way business owners think and act. I expect those in that boat will be less proactive about their future plans and will be far more cautious, particularly when it comes to investing money.
2) The big players in the UK will back more control
We have been through this before, albeit under different circumstances with the dairy industry in the 1990s.
I remember when the dairy industry had moved to the plastic bottle with the three-panel label as a standard. Production volumes reached such heights that it was realized that in the empty bottle supply chain they were shipping empty bottles or thin air around the UK. Dairy farmers worked with bottle blowing companies to install bottle blowing plants within their own bottling lines. This move minimized costs, cut down lead times and ultimately meant those businesses held far more control in their own hands.
That trend is firing up again. Many of the conversations we're having with our customers are around how they take more control of their end-to-end production.
Even if they're not looking at that, they're trying to identify how they can source their supplies from the UK, rather than from overseas, to try and reduce the lead times and astronomical shipping costs that have been endured by multiple industries, not just ours, over the last 12 months.
Sticking specifically with shipping, it is starting to make more sense to look at UK suppliers. Freight costs now outweigh the initial cost-benefit. As a result, businesses are investing their money in acquiring more sites and space. Businesses are keen to look closer to home in order to reduce their costs and take back more control.
3) Tech developments and the revolution of the customer and engineer experience
I had a conversation with a customer recently, and one topic that came up was 3D printing.
That's very creative and innovative. Realistically, though, that's not going to happen — purely because of how slow the process is at this point in time.
However, what it does show is that businesses in our industry are starting to think outside the box with how to tackle internal modern-day problems.
One of the biggest challenges we face, as an agent, is how we offer customer support beyond the sale of a machine, mainly because that has been a very physical experience and beyond the implementation of a machine, our engineers are only involved again if they're called out for a maintenance issue.
However, products like SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition), which sounds more like something out of a Terminator movie, are going to give businesses of all shapes and sizes the capabilities to garner more information and deliver remote assistance like never before.
I'm not saying this is brand-spanking new to the sector. However, it has now started to filter down the chain from the big players to the point that all manufacturing companies will be able to get their hands on it.
SCADA will mean things can happen far quicker than they have before. It will allow us to deal with up to 60% of the issues that are raised with us almost instantly through live, real-time information. If a customer has a problem with a machine, we can access information about their machine and diagnose it without being reliant on what they're telling us.
It'll take our business, within the next five years, from one that has engineers arriving on a customer's site a day after a call to fix a problem with tools, to having three engineers being able to fix and diagnose problems remotely. It will open it up so much. It sounds normal, given the way we all generally work since the pandemic, but for our industry, this is significant.
4) Apprenticeship importance will grow as we push to address the industry talent shortages
Bear with me for a moment.
My dad left school with no qualifications but is a fantastic engineer. He can strip an engine down and put it back together in 30 minutes flat. His mathematical skills are fantastic and after turning to engineering, he's made an excellent career for himself.
This isn't an old topic of debate but its importance only continues to heighten within our industry, because there is a shortage of quality engineers.
For years, attending college has been the route of choice. There are a lot of different degrees — some useful, some not (that's a topic for another day) — but we are starting to see more get done within education to highlight career opportunities and possibilities in the trade, construction and manufacturing industries.
Thanks to education bodies, like STEM, there's a lot more education in schools about getting more hands-on with engineering and with tools and drills — something that had been neglected for a long time to the point that most people coming through education leave without knowing how to use power tools and do basic DIY.
It's a necessary extension to the core part of education, like math and English and science. STEM is teaching students life skills as well as preparing them early on for potential careers in a trade environment.
Given the issues that have been faced during 2021, I suspect that schemes and initiatives like this will only grow in importance during 2022.
5) We will need to get to grips with the UKCA Marking
This is an issue that is not well publicized but is one that will need to be addressed over the course of the next 12 months.
For context, we're moving from the CE Marking, which is a European legislation that we were part of until, you guessed it, Brexit happened.
What that means is that UKCA, which for clarity is almost identical to the CE Marking but for a few minor differences that don't really matter to the majority of components and machinery, will become law in this country in January 2023.
All machines in this country will need to show that UK Marking and be compliant with it. However, businesses in this country have been able to show that since January 2021.
Alongside Germany, the UK's history is one of leadership in the area of safety and security with machinery. We have a real opportunity to own and fly the flag for this, become the conversation leaders in best practices when it comes to safety.
It's an exciting proposition but there is a lot to be ironed out during 2022. Watch this space.
