Freddie Scott (April 24, 1933 – June 4, 2007) was an American soul singer and songwriter. His biggest hits were "Hey, Girl", a top ten US pop hit in 1963, and "Are You Lonely For Me", a no.1 hit on the R&B chart in early 1967.
He was born in Providence, Rhode Island, and sang in his grandmother's gospel group, Sally Jones & the Gospel Keyes, touring England with them at the age of 12. He studied medicine at the University of Rhode Island and then atPaine College in Augusta, Georgia, but began singing again with the Swanee Quintet Juniors, and gave up his medical career.
In 1956 he recorded as a secular singer with the J&S label in New York City, releasing his first solo single "Running Home". He also wrote the top 10 R&B hit "I'll Be Spinning" for the label's duo, Johnnie & Joe, and his song "Baby I'm Sorry" was recorded by Ricky Nelson for his 1957 debut album Ricky. He was then called upto serve in Korea, but continued to record for small labels with little success. After leaving the military, he turned to songwriting, joining the Aldon Music publishing company set up by Al Nevins and Don Kirshner in the Brill Building, where he recorded many of his own demos and also worked as a producer with Erma Franklin. He also continued to release his own records, including "Baby, You're a Long Time Dead" for Joy Records in 1961.
In 1962, he worked with fellow songwriters Gerry Goffin and Carole King on their song "Hey, Girl", recording a demo for singer Chuck Jackson. When Jackson failed to turn up to a recording session, Scott recorded the song himself, and, when eventually released by the Colpix label some months later, it rose to no. 10 on both the pop and R&B charts. He followed it up with a slow version of Ray Charles' "I Got a Woman", which again made the charts. When Colpix collapsed, he moved toColumbia, which tried to market him, with little success, as a middle-of-the-road crooner. He left Columbia Records in 1965, and moved to the Shout label, a subsidiary of Bert Berns' Bang Records. There, he recorded Berns' song "Are You Lonely for Me", reputedly requiring over 100 takes before it was finished. The record stayed at the top of the R&B charts for four weeks, and reached no. 39 on the pop charts.
He followed up with a version of "Cry To Me", another Berns song that had previously been a hit for Solomon Burke. Although he continued to have success with R&B chart hits including "(You) Got What I Need", written and produced by Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, and a version of Van Morrison's "He Ain't Give You None", his career was affected by Berns' sudden death at the end of 1967. Scott continued to perform, but spent much of the next two years without a record deal. He eventually signed with the small Elephant V label, before moving on to Probe Records, where he had his last R&B hit in 1970 with a version of Bob Dylan's "I Shall Be Released." He continued to work with his songwriting partner Helen Miller, wrote advertising jingles, and took minor roles as an actor in films, includingStiletto. He also recorded in the early 1970s for the Vanguard, Pickwick International and Mainstream labels, and continued to perform concerts.
Scott later worked on the oldies circuit, and released a new album, Brand New Man, in 2001. He also performed "Brown Eyed Girl" on the Van Morrison tribute album Vanthology, released in 2003. He died in New York City in 2007 at the age of 74.
His 1968 song "You Got What I Need" was sampled for the 1989 Biz Markie hit, "Just a Friend". It was also sampled for Ghostface Killah's "Save Me Dear" in 2004. The song was also parodied by New York DJ Rob Gee in his song "Ecstacy You Got What I Need".
This is the rare original version of the Jackson Sisters 'I Believe in Miracles'. Recorded in 1973 and performed by Mark Capanni who co-wrote the Jackson's song, this was completed and ready to go a full 14 months before the Jackson Sisters version hit the streets.
Despite the Capanni version having been pressed up it failed to make an impact – too soulful for rock radio but not soulful enough for RnB radio – and the record was pulled. It was the Jackson Sisters with their full-on dance-floor funk that did the business, released in 1974.
Ayers was born in Los Angeles, California, and grew up in a musical family. At the age of five, he was given his first pair of vibraphone mallets by Lionel Hampton. The area of Los Angeles that Ayers grew up in, now known as "South Central" but then known as "South Park", was the epicenter of the Southern California Black music scene.
The schools he attended (Wadsworth Elementary, Nevins Middle School, and Thomas Jefferson High School) were all close to the famed Central Avenue, Los Angeles' equivalent of Harlem's Lenox Avenue and Chicago's State Street. Roy would likely have been exposed to music as it not only emanated from the many nightclubs and bars in the area, but also poured out of many of the homes where the musicians who kept the scene alive lived in and around Central. His high school, Thomas Jefferson High School, produced some of the most talented new musicians, such as Dexter Gordon.
In 1977, Ayers produced an album by the group RAMP, Come Into Knowledge, commonly and mistakenly thought to stand for "Roy Ayers Music Project". That Fall, he had his biggest hit with "Running Away". In late 1979, Ayers scored his only top ten single on Billboard's Hot Disco/Dance chart with "Don't Stop The Feeling," which was also the leadoff single from his 1980 album "No Stranger to Love", whose title track was sampled in Jill Scott's 2001 song "Watching Me" from her debut album Who Is Jill Scott?
In 1980, Ayers released Music Of Many Colors with the Nigerian Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti, In 1981, Ayers produced an album with the singer Sylvia Striplin, Give Me Your Love (Uno Melodic Records 1981). Ayers performed a solo on the John "Jellybean" Benitez production of Whitney Houston "Love Will Save The Day" from her second multi-platinum studio album Whitney. The single was released in July 1988 by Arista Records.
In 1992, Ayers released two albums, Drive and Wake Up, for the hip-hop label Ichiban Records. In 1993, Ayers appeared on the record Guru's Jazzmatazz Vol.1 featuring on the vibraphone in the song "Take a Look (At Yourself)".
In 1994, Ayers appeared on the Red Hot Organization's compilation album Stolen Moments: Red Hot + Cool. The album, meant to raise awareness and funds in support of the AIDS epidemic in relation to the African-American community, was heralded as "Album of the Year" by Time Magazine. During the 2000s and 2010s, Ayers ventured into house music, collaborating with such stalwarts of the genre as Masters at Work and Kerri Chandler. Ayers started two record labels, Uno Melodic and Gold Mink Records. The first released several LPs, including Sylvia Striplin's, while the second folded after a few singles. Roy Ayers hosts the fictitious radio station "Fusion FM" in Grand Theft Auto IV (2008).
Currently, there is a documentary in progress called the Roy Ayers Project featuring Ayers and many hip hop producers who have sampled his music and other people who have been influenced by him and his music. The documentary is planned for release in early 2014.
His collaborations with Roberta Flack scored high on the charts and won him the Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals for the duet, "Where Is the Love" in 1973.
At the height of his career Hathaway was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and was known to not take his prescribed medication regularly enough to properly control his symptoms.On January 13, 1979, Hathaway's body was found outside the luxury hotel Essex House in New York City; his death was ruled a suicide.

No Pardon for Alan Turing: House of Lords Rejects Petition
Posted on the 08 February 2012 by Periscope @periscopepost

A petition calling for a posthumous pardon for Alan Turing, the computer science genius whose work was vital for British intelligence in the Second World War, has been rejected by the House of Lords, who have cited the question of precedent. The petition gathered 21,000 signatures. This year marks the centenary of Turing's birth.
Turing helped to crack Germany's Enigma code, and was key in developing artificial intelligence, even giving his name to the "Turing Test", by which the intelligence of machines is measured. His life, however, ended sadly: in 1952, said Wired, he admitted to a sexual relationship with another man: a criminal offense at the time, known as "gross indecency". He lost his security clearance and was forbidden to work with GCHQ any further. He was given a choice between chemical castration and imprisonment; he chose the former, and later committed suicide by eating a poisoned apple.
In 2009 Gordon Brown, then Prime Minister, gave a full apology on behalf of the British people for his mistreatment. Oddly enough, or perhaps not, it is American commentators that are largely calling for his pardon; British ones are saying that it would set the wrong kind of precedent.
Prejudice still lurks. Carol Pinchefsky on Forbes was outraged, saying that it was "unconscionable" for the pardon to be denied. She put his work into context: before Turing's breakthrough, "only 50 Enigma messages" were unravelled per week. With Turing, it ratcheted up to 3,000 a day. She acknowledged that it would be a nightmare if the government went around pardoning everybody, and there is a "technical difference between overturning a conviction for being a miscarriage of justice and overturning one because the law itself was unjust." More unsettling is this problem: if you can pardon someone for something that's been decriminalised retroactively, can you also charge people for something that's only just become a crime? But still, she said, somehow overturning her own logic: "homosexuality is not a crime." There is prejudice still in the House of Lords.
Human rights? A letter to The Guardian agreed: Eric Deakins wrote that Turing should be pardoned not because he was a "great intellectual", but because his conviction was "a clear breach of his human rights."
It would be impossible. That may be so, but Wired quoted John-Graham Cumming, who was behind the 2009 petition. It's impossible, said Cumming, to think about pardoning Turing – it would be "unjust to the other gay men who suffered under the law." Plus, there are still men "alive today with a criminal record" because of that law. Whilst a pardon for all convicted under that law would be something worth doing, one just for Turing doesn't help at all.
Let's not be like that again. There are proper legal reasons for not granting the pardon. As Lord Mcnally has stated, quoted on The Guardian, ""It is tragic that Alan Turing was convicted of an offense which now seems both cruel and absurd — particularly poignant given his outstanding contribution to the war effort. However, the law at the time required a prosecution and, as such, long-standing policy has been to accept that such convictions took place and, rather than trying to alter the historical context and to put right what cannot be put right, ensure instead that we never again return to those times."

It's been almost 6 months since Lunch Club last met, and we finally got around to organizing another meeting...at Caprice of course! Lady Elf had put together some menu suggestions for a "light lunch", and I'd been getting a little self-conscious over the amount of my food intake recently. I decided against the wild duck tasting that others have chosen and was all set to do just a main course + cheese.
While we waited for everyone to arrive, the rest of us sat around, a little agitated that we hadn't been served with our beloved Bordier salted butter (and bread, of course). Finally I could hold it in no longer, and asked the staff to bring us the butter - and only the salted version. Four servings were subsequently placed on the table, but frankly that's nowhere near enough for the 6 of us. There were 5 of us who practically inhale this stuff... and Mrs. Dyson promptly squirreled one away as her own.
I looked at the lunch menu and decided that for an extra HKD 50 I might as well have an extra course... so guess what I did?
Our amuse bouche today was a single Royale Cabanon oyster with shallot cream and yuzu granité. The oyster itself was fat, creamy and slightly sweet - poached for two seconds. The yuzu (柚子) granité was awesome, and I didn't mind one bit that I no longer tasted the brine in the shell. What a way to kick off lunch!
Crab bisque, sudachi lime zest and shellfish roll - while the bisque is a French creation, this dish was all Japanese to me. My first whiff of the soup revealed an element I didn't expect - ammonia. The first thought which flashed through my mind was - heaven forbid - the crab wasn't fresh?! But I quickly realized that the smell probably came from something else - crab tomalley, or more specifically kanimiso (かに味噌). While crab roe in other cuisines smell rather mild, the Japanese tomalley - the green/grayish thick paste sometimes found on top of sushi - is actually pretty pungent and smells of ammonia. I happen to love this stuff, so I happily lapped away. In any case the sudachi (酢橘) zest helped offset some of the pungency. Absolutely loved the bisque. The crab meat sushi on the side looked interesting, and they were sweet and delicious with delicate flavors.
Chèvre affiné au marc - like an Époisses but made with goat's milk. Light, creamy and nutty in flavor and a little thick and dense.
Sainte-Maure - the ash on the outside gave it a more smoky flavor. Rich and creamy and medium sweet.
Beaufort d'été - very sweet on the palate, although I could taste a little bit of the crystallized salt. Nutty with dried fruit flavors.
Persillé de la Tarentaise - probably the least favorite for the group including myself. Salty, pungent, kinda plasticky.
Coulommiers - certainly one of my favorite cheese in the world, and this one was really, really ripe and runny. Just look at this picture taken by someone else at the table... Is that amazing or what?!
Comté - Jeremy knows I never get tired of this... Just look at those salt crystals... Wonderful.
Does it get better than a 3-hour lunch on a Friday?

Q: @Transactional annotation at service layer does not rollback, jdbcTemplate I have a service which calls other services to perform DB operations. I have added a Transactional annotation on the method.

    public void saveData(String data) {
        data = service1.changeData(data);
        dao1.save1(data);

    }
}

    .
    .
    public String changeData(String data) {
        return dao3.getChangedData(data);
    }

@Repository
class dao1 {
    public void save1(String data) {
        // INSERT DATA ...
    }
}

@Repository

    }
}

@Repository

The problem is if something goes wrong in save2() method called from myService, the data inserted in save1 is not rolledback in the database. It still persists in the DB. Any idea why is this not working?
Thanks!

November 2021, Community Spotlight
By : Chad Bettes
After a 275-mile journey that took 120 years, we're about to see Bison in Kansas City.
Bison State Bank owner Ryan Wiebe said his bank has begun a soft opening of its first local branch, located at 9201 Ward Parkway, and expects it to be open for business to the public by December.
It will mark a big step for the bank founded in 1901 in western Kansas and that, just a few years ago, was Kansas' smallest bank. (The original bank ledgers can still be found in the vault there.)
When Wiebe and his ownership group purchased it in 2018, Bison's assets were at $6.9 million. Since then, that portfolio has more than tripled. And, while still small relative to competitors in the metro, Bison feels its momentum is in the right direction.
"It's our goal to grow this bank. It's to give back to the community. It's the true underdog story, quite frankly," he said. "You know, we're one of the very, very smallest banks to ever go from, whether it's Kansas or Missouri, into the Kansas City market."
Wiebe said small businesses will be the bank's niche here, with an emphasis on those that need commercial lending levels that often aren't on bigger banks' radar.
His philosophy in serving that market is to offer a mix of old-school and new-school banking that is both personalized and convenient.
To help people grow their businesses, he said, the bank's team starts by listening and learning to what each customer's needs are.
Then they aim to pair that understanding with modern technology and banking principles to meet customers' needs in creative ways.
Home loans are another area of focus for Bison State Bank, building on Wiebe's years of lending experience as owner of First Mortgage Direct, a Kansas City-based company founded in 2009.
Fueled by historically low interest rates, First Mortgage Direct's loan volume skyrocketed from $445 million in 2019 to $1.5 billion in 2020, and its number of employees more than doubled. The high volume has continued this year.
Bison will allow for significant scaling up in the mortgage sector as the bank's charter opens up new markets far beyond the 22 states First Mortgage Direct lends in.
And while Wiebe anticipates home lending will cool overall in 2022 due to a slowdown in mortgage refinancing, he said there is no concern of a 2008-style mortgage bubble because of today's strict underwriting rules and the fact that home prices now are the result of "true supply and demand."
As Wiebe works with small business owners from Bison's Kansas City branch, he'll relate to their passion and sense of urgency — because he's been there himself.
When starting his mortgage company in 2009, he went from initial business plan to his first loan closing in four months.
When he set his sights on buying a bank in 2016, after an initial phone call to pitch the idea and with the help of "divine intervention," he was in front of Bison's board of directors to negotiate a deal within three weeks.
And now with a Missouri bank branch about ready to open, Wiebe's already thinking about adding a 2nd local branch on the Kansas side of the state line.
Accordingly, the most important advice he offers business owners just getting started is the advice he follows himself: Trust your gut and your instinct — and believe in what you're doing.
"If you're passionate about something that means something to you, or the service or product that you're providing, really that's the first key," he said.
After that, Wiebe emphasizes the importance of business basics such as understanding the financials, inventory and control systems. This prepares entrepreneurs to then partner with a bank that can help them get from point A to B when it comes to capital and cash flow.
Coming Full Circle
Bison State Bank's headquarters is in Rush County, Kansas, where Wiebe's grandparents still live and farm in their 90s.
He said rural communities in the area are rich in agriculture and oil but continue to see population declines.
With the bank's growth, he hopes to meld the best of both worlds — expanding small business lending not only in Kansas City, but also in those rural areas, while at the same time bringing some of Bison's community atmosphere to customers here.
"We're trying to drive business and help our customers out there develop and grow and really get back to their communities," he said. "So the more that we can be an active participant, both in Kansas City and in western Kansas, is a win-win. It's growing the underserved community, both in Bison or in Rush County, as well as Kansas City."

We always enjoy an opportunity to visit Northern Michigan and the Kogelman wedding did not disappoint, especially since The Grand Traverse Resort is simply gorgeous. These two make such a fun and beautiful couple; it was our joy to share in their big day. From the intimate first look to the heartfelt speeches from friends and family, it was the perfect love-filled day. After nine years together, these two can finally embark on their life journey as husband and wife and we're so happy for them!
It was also a special day for us because it was the debut wedding for our new drone and we loved the kinds of shots we were able to get with it.
Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Kogelman, thank you for allowing us the pleasure of sharing in your wedding day story.

Emirati designer Khalid Shafar launches two new pieces for his Dubai-inspired Illusion collection
Emirati designer Khalid Shafar has released an evolution of his Illusion collection, inspired by Dubai at night, which he describes as "a city made of vibrant criss-crossing lights".
Illusion Bar Stool I & II
The collection features seating objects rendered in rope-woven lines that reflect a sense of movement and geometric shapes, causing various angles of shade and shadows when faced with light.
The lines are wrapped around or over timber frames, a material Shafar commonly uses in his designs.
"Illusion is created by the engineered tension between lines and frame," Shafar explained. "Viewed from all sides your eye searches for a start and end to the woven form."
The new additions to the collection include are two new bar stools, Illusion Bar I and II, for both residential and commercial solutions.
The bar stools were preceded by the Illusion Stool – the first item in the collection- which serves as both seating and a magazine rack or storage compartment created by the ropes held under the seat surface.
Illusion collection by Khalid Shafar.
Following the stool was the Illusion Dine chair, which features a linear weaving that represents motion and speed, "captured like a still image of a city highway in the night".
The Illusion Arm was the last of the collection before the launch of the new barstools.
Shafar's Illusion collection was shown at the Middle East Revealed exhibition during London Design Festival in 2014, among designs by other creatives in the Middle East including Emirati designer Aljoud Lootah and Lebanese designer Fadi Sarieddine.
Shafar said the exhibition allowed for a more accurate representation of what contemporary design in the Middle East looks like today, where contemporary sensibilities are pushing to the forefront, while still holding on to heritage and Arab identity.
"Just because we are creating contemporary design, it doesn't mean we are losing our identity," he said.
In 2015, Shafar along with fellow designers and creatives, launched Design Ras Al Khor (DRAK) initiative as part of the Dubai Design Week programme, with the aim of pushing the Ras Al Khor area on the design map. It is also where Shafar's design studio is located.
We spoke to Shafar about building Dubai's design scene and his plans for DRAK. Read full interview here.

Novius provides clients with monthly invoice validation, carrier Moves, Adds, Changes & Deletes (MACD) processing and invoice management. Most organizations are beginning to understand that high volumes of complex telecom invoices from multiple vendors, each with unique billing formats and media, create an administrative nightmare. In many cases, telecom and accounting staff are tasked with the impossible: receive invoices, validate, allocate charges, process bills on time and fix the billing issues that have occurred that month.
Partnering with Staff – The ability for our team to work along side your staff to alleviate workload and assist in planning and direction.
Inventory management is at the core of most TEM systems. TelecomManager is designed to manage telecom expenses starting with tracking each element in a company's communication service. TelecomManager has the ability to track each voice line, cost per service, internet service, Circuit ID IP address, carrier agreement, expiration date and much more. And beyond simply tracking, TelecomManager can report on usage and trends, allowing users IT staff and CFO's to see monthly telecom spend by location.
With larger companies processing as many as 15,000 telecom-related bills per year, and smaller businesses spending significant hours on billing each year, it is no wonder companies are turning to automated TEM systems. TEM software saves manpower and increases accuracy. Because businesses can afford to audit only a small percentage of invoices, it is difficult to find errors. In fact, many accounting departments pay any bill within ten percent of the previous month. TEM software can save companies significant dollars, as it allows for each invoice to be compared to contracts and actual usage, making it easy to catch overcharges and errors.

If you are trying to limit your calorie intake to meet certain weight loss and health goals, snack time can pose a challenge. You want something that is delicious, satisfying, and exciting, but not extremely caloric.
Unfortunately, many low-calorie snacks on the market are filled with artificial ingredients and excess sugars to make up for the loss of flavor that happens when fat and calories are reduced or removed. But if you know what you're looking for, you can find tasty, low-calorie snacks made from real, whole-food ingredients.
Here, the best low-calorie snacks.

The 9 Best Healthy Snacks of 2022, According to a Dietitian
Best Budget: Quaker Instant Oatmeal Individual Packets
Oatmeal shouldn't only be reserved for breakfast—it makes a well-balanced, filling, and low-calorie snack as well. Oatmeal is a great source of soluble fiber, a type of fiber that helps maintain digestive health and can also lower cholesterol levels.
Quaker Instant Oatmeal packets have just 100 calories per packet, along with 3 grams of fiber (1 gram of which is soluble fiber) and 4 grams of protein. There are no added flavorings or sweeteners to these oatmeal packets, so they make an excellent blank canvas for a warm, comforting snack.
For a more satisfying and well-rounded snack, add some toppings, such as berries, cinnamon, or a small handful of nuts. These oatmeal packets are made with 100% whole grains and are Non-GMO Project certified.
Best Bar: KIND Honey Roasted Nuts & Sea Salt Bar
Snack bars are a convenient food to throw in your bag for snacking on-the-go. While some bars are filled with artificial ingredients and additives, KIND bars are made with whole food nuts and seeds—that you can actually see.
The KIND Honey Roasted Nuts and Sea Salt bar is a perfect low-calorie snack when you're out and about, or don't have time to prepare something at home. Made with almonds, cashews, and peanuts, these bars will keep you full with plenty of healthy fats, in addition to fiber and protein.
Each Honey Roasted Nuts and Sea Salt bar contains 180 calories, 4 grams of fiber, and 6 grams of plant-based protein. Naturally sweetened with honey, they only have 3 grams of added sugar—which is quite low compared to many other snack bars on the shelves. These bars are also gluten-free and non-GMO.
The 8 Best Pre-Workout Snacks of 2022, According to a Dietitian
Best Popcorn: Angie's BOOMCHICKAPOP Sea Salt Popcorn
Popcorn is the ultimate low-calorie snack if you like a lot of volume when you eat. Since it's filled with so much air, we can eat a lot of popcorn and feel satiated. If adding butter or oil, use small amounts for a satisfying snack.
Angie's Boom Chicka Pop makes perfectly portioned low-calorie packs of popcorn in a delicious sea salt flavor. Since each bag has just 80 calories, consider pairing your popcorn with a serving of fruit, veggies, or cheese for a more well-rounded and filling snack. The sea salt flavor has only three ingredients—whole grain popcorn, sunflower oil, and sea salt. It's also non-GMO, gluten-free, and vegan.
If you're craving some unique and different popcorn flavors, Angie's Boom Chicka Pop offers various flavors, including white cheddar popcorn, real butter popcorn, light kettle corn, and more.
Best Dessert: Yasso Frozen Greek Yogurt Bar
View On Amazon View On FreshDirect
When you're craving something sweet for snack time, head to your freezer for a Yasso Frozen Greek Yogurt Bar. These bars seriously hit the spot when you're craving ice cream but don't want to indulge in extra calories.
Made with real Greek yogurt, Yasso bars pack 5 to 7 grams of filling, high-quality protein per one bar serving, and each bar has between 80 and 150 calories.
Yasso bars come in a wide variety of flavors, including Fudge Brownie, Sea Salt Caramel, Coffee Chocolate Chip, and Cookies 'n Cream. And because these bars are made with Greek yogurt, they contain live and active probiotic cultures, which are beneficial for gut health.
Best Nuts: Emerald Nuts 100 Calorie Variety Pack
Nuts are certainly one of the healthiest foods to include in your diet. They contain plant-based protein, fiber, and an abundance of healthy fats. However, nuts are not a low-calorie food, and it can be easy to consume more calories than you'd like to when snacking out of a large container of nuts.
Complement your 100-calorie pack of nuts with a crunchy apple for added fiber and nutrition—it's a well-balanced snack that will keep you satisfied until your next meal.
The variety pack includes packets of roasted almonds, a mix of almonds and walnuts, and roasted and salted cashews, so you can mix up your snack each day.
The 8 Best Keto Snacks of 2022, According to a Dietitian
Best Chocolate: Lily's Sweets Crispy Rice Dark Chocolate Bar
For chocoholics craving a low-calorie treat, look no further than Lily's Sweets Crispy Rice Dark Chocolate bars. Instead of sugar, this chocolate is sweetened with stevia, a zero-calorie botanical sweetener.
Each serving of Lily's Sweets Crispy Rice Chocolate bar is just 170 calories—for about half of the chocolate bar. Lily's Sweets uses gluten-free, non-GMO, and Fair Trade ingredients in their chocolate bars.
You can find Lily's chocolate products in various flavors, including dark chocolate, extra dark chocolate, milk chocolate, and white chocolate styles. They also make chocolate chips for baking, peanut butter cups, and chocolate-covered nuts—all of which are lower in calories and sugar than traditional chocolates that use sugar as the sweetener.
When you're looking for a low-calorie snack that satisfies your urge to munch on something crunchy, salty, and flavorful, Biena Roasted Chickpea Snacks (view at Amazon) come in first place. Packed with fiber and protein, these chickpeas will satisfy all your snack cravings, fill you up, and give you lasting energy until your next meal.
What to Look for in a Low-Calorie Snack
An ideal snack should contain fiber, protein, and healthy fats. It's important to look at the ingredient label, so you know what's in your snack. Many low-calorie snack products use artificial ingredients to make up for the lack of calories. If the ingredient label lists whole foods that you recognize, such as almonds, popcorn, or oats, you've likely found a healthy option.
According to FDA regulatory terms, in order for a food to be considered low-calorie, it must have 40 calories or less for a given reference amount of that food. Choosing low-calorie snacks may help to promote weight loss or weight maintenance. While your needs will vary depending on your personal calorie intake goals, a good general rule is to look for snacks that contain 100 to 200 calories per serving.
Packaged snacks like the ones on this list are excellent options for busy lifestyles and staying healthy on the go. But don't forget about fruits and vegetables for snacking, too. Fruits and vegetables are naturally low in calories and provide tons of nutrients like fiber, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. When possible, combine low-calorie packaged snacks with fruits and vegetables, or save the packaged snacks for when you're away from home.
Why is snacking important?
Snacking is important because it gives you energy in between meals, controls hunger, and may help you meet your daily nutrient needs.
When selecting a snack, check out the Nutrition Facts label. Choose snacks that are low in sodium and high in fiber. Try to avoid snacks that list sugar as one of the first few ingredients.
Also, check the serving size and number of servings per package so that you get the number of calories you planned on.
What are the benefits of eating snacks?
You're not alone if you consider snacking unhealthy. Chips, cookies, and candy may come to mind when you think about snacks. But when you make the right choices, eating snacks offers health benefits.
Snacks are a perfect time to add more fruits and vegetables to your daily diet. Fruits and veggies are low in calories and rich in nutrients, and eating the recommended five servings each day improves health and may help you live longer.
Having a snack when you're hungry helps keep your appetite in check. Going too long without eating makes you too hungry, which could cause you to overeat at your next meal. Snacks also provide energy before a workout.
How do you factor snacking into your meal plan?
Despite the negative connotations associated with snacking, most people eat about three 230-calories snacks a day. That amounts to about 690 calories from snacks, or 30% of calories on a 2,000-calorie-per-day diet.
When factoring snacks into your meal plan, you need to take into consideration your daily calorie needs, the number of meals you eat, and how many snacks you want. Each snack should have no more than 200 calories, or 300 calories if you're active.
If you plan on having two 200-calorie snacks a day on a 2,000-calorie diet, that leaves you with 1,600 calories for your meals, or about 530 calories for each meal. But even when snacks are part of your meal plan, only snack when you're hungry.
"Fiber, protein, and fat are digested slowly and suppress hunger hormones, keeping you full longer. Calories are a measurement of energy. So instead of looking for the lowest calories around, look for the right calories—the ones that will keep you full."

5 Best Cities to Live in Close to Portland: 2022 Update
Across the country, pandemic life has driven people from city centers to smaller locales in search of more space, more privacy, and a quieter, more enriching quality of life. While not to the degree of more populous areas like New York, and the Bay Area, many Portland residents have also made the shift toward suburbia.
Think the suburban lifestyle might be for you? Read on. We looked at the many desirable and highly livable cities and towns surrounding Portland, many of which offer the serenity so many are looking for these days, while still being infused with a little bit of Portland. Here are our top five picks.
1. Tualatin, Oregon
Median Home Price: $630,000
Distance to Portland: 12.3 mi, 23 min
Tualatin is located at the I-5 / I-205 intersection, just south of Portland in the northwest corner of Washington county (and part of Clackamas county). The translation of Tualatin's name might give a certain impression about this seemingly unassuming little city. It's namesake is the nearby slow-moving river, which comes from the Atfalati (the region's Native American tribe) and means "lazy" or "sluggish." We like to think of it as "peaceful" and "serene."
With its many parks and green spaces, along with its palpable historic vibe and commitment to the arts, Tualatin promises a charming and diverse quality of life. From its thoughtfully designed (by local artists Redstone Rodolfo Serna and Carlos Chavez) and executed community mural to its contributions to the county's Quilt Barn Trail, Tualatin is all about celebrating both the arts and its rural heritage.
Annually, Tualatin residents paddle down the Lake at the Commons in giant, hollowed out pumpkins for what's called the Pumpkin Regatta. What can we say? "Weird" doesn't only belong to Portland! Every year, thousands of visitors head to watch the spectacle of wacky Oregonians race in 1,000-pound pumpkins.
Nature lovers don't have to look far in Tualatin for their outdoor fix. Between the numerous parks, green areas, golf courses, and waterways, finding solace from the daily grind is mere minutes away. A few standouts are The Tualatin River and the Tualatin River Water Trail, Tualatin Lake at the Commons, Little Woodrose Nature Park, Cook Park, Tualatin Island Greens, and Tualatin Country Club.
2. Oregon City, Oregon
County: Clackamas
Oregon City sits between the Willamette River, running north-south along the city's western edge, and the Clackamas River, an offshoot of the Willamette, running across the city's northern boundary. Serving as the county seat for Clackamas County, the Oregon City's river borders contribute to its abundance of farmland and natural beauty that provide residents such a high quality of life.
For example, Carver Park is located on the Clackamas River, just 20 minutes from downtown, and provides activities like boating, fishing, swimming, kayaking, birding, and rock collecting. You can also tent and RV camp along the Clackamas, take a hike on the eight-mile Clackamas River Trail, or head out on a guided raft trip. Drive the scenic byway and take in spectacular views of old-growth Doug firs, salmon, bald eagles, and rare birds.
Oregon City is rich in history, too. The banks of the Clackamas were once a Native American settlement. In 2019, the Grand Ronde Tribe purchased the defunct Blue Heron Mill in Oregon City for the sole purpose of restoring the land on which it's built. A ceremony in 2021 marked the planned transition of the land back to the tribe and to its natural state. After the demolition of the building, the process to nurture the rebuild the land will start.
The end of the Oregon Trail is in Oregon City, also, and there's an interpretive center offering guests interactive exhibits and costumed guides to portray life in the mid-1800s. Other venues that add to the city's historical texture are the Museum of Oregon Territory and Stephens-Crawford Museum.
Farmer's Markets are numerous and popular in the region, but the one in Oregon City stands out. It won the 2019 Outstanding Large or Urban Market of the Year award. With a mission to bring community, farmers, artisans, and educators together to "celebrate, discover and promote healthy, local, sustainable food as an integral part of a resilient and thriving local economy," the year-round Farmer's Market is a much-loved focal point in the city.
Not many cities can claim to have the only outdoor municipal elevator in the U.S. and one of eight in the world. Oregon City can! The original was installed in 1915, and after a few updates and renovations over the years, the still-operational outdoor elevator shuttles residents and visitors between two neighborhoods and accommodates for the drastic elevation changes within the city. If you want to take a ride, look for it at the intersection of 7th St. and Railroad Ave.
A ride up on the elevator will take you to downtown, a beloved section of Oregon City, full of boutiques and vintage and antique shops. You'll also find plenty of spots to stop and refuel from pubs and breweries to grills and coffee shops. Oregon City also has a good mix of worldly cuisines, including Mexican, Scandinavian, and Chinese, to name a few.
3. Milwaukie, Oregon
Distance to Portland: 6 mi, 13 min
Milwaukie has little bit of a Portland vibe, with its food carts, special brand of quirkiness, and love for green spaces in the city. But it's a well-established entity in its own right. Two iconic companies call Milwaukie home. One is Bob's Red Mill, maker of whole grain foods, established in 1978. The other is Dark Horse Comics, and American comic book and manga manager, around since 1986.
Not to be stopped by a little rain, Milwaukie is also home to the annual Umbrella Parade, a procession of the town's residents carrying decorated umbrellas en route to the annual lighting ceremony every December.
Milwaukie's Food Cart Pod is located right next to the MAX Orange Line and offers a great selection of cuisines and tasty treats like Thai, Mexican, Greek, pizza, and Ruby Jewel Ice Cream.
Not to be outdone by Oregon City, Milwaukie has another top Farmer's Market, located at the Main-Harrison intersection in downtown. (It won the "Best of" in 2012.) The market runs May through October every year, offering a wealth of gift items, plants, cut flowers, and prepared foods.
Milwaukie Bay Park is a sweet spot in the city, an 8.5-acre park that runs alongside the Willamette River near downtown. The park opened in 2015, but due to citizenry input, more plans were created in 2018. The COVID pandemic slowed down any forward movement, but as of April, 2022, the project is moving again.
Milwaukie is also on the Springwater Corridor Trail, a multi-purpose paved walkway ideal for joggers, walkers, wheelchairs, and strollers. The 40-mile loop was inspired by the Olsmted 1903 plan for a parkway that would connect various parks.
4. Troutdale, Oregon
Distance to Portland: 35 mi, 16.3 min
John Harlow, a sea captain from Maine, is credited with naming Troutdale. The story goes that after he bought the town's original land claim in 1872, he chose the name due to a small dale near his home, which he kept stocked with trout. He also opened several trout farms in the area. While many of the small bodies of water that once dotted Troutdale's terrain have either dried up or were filled in the name of progress, several are thriving today.
Troutdale is a great city for those who love outdoor activities, especially anglers. Fishing is available at the Lewis and Clark State Recreation Site, Company Lake, and Sandy River Delta Park. Not within Troutdale proper but just next door are Blue Lake Regional Park and Chinook Landing Marine Park. Some of these areas also provide activities like boating, hiking, biking, swimming, and picnicking. And for those days when you prefer something more close to home, Troutdale has several city parks and green spaces within easy access.
Mt. Hood Community College is just outside the Troutdale boundary, but it's close proximity adds to the city's youthful vibe and culture. The famed annual Mt. Hood Jazz Festival brings world-class musical acts to the area, and the school's jazz program offers high-quality student concerts throughout the year.
5. Forest Grove, Oregon
Nestled in wine country and with eight wineries in its zip code, Forest Grove is an idyllic city that boasts an air of culture and good taste. When viticulture is such a big part of a community's fabric, it can't help but carry over and infuse the mindset of its residents.
Also contributing to the vibe of the city is Pacific University, known as the Pacific Northwest's top research institute. Its mission is to guide students to "think, care, create, and pursue justice in a global community," and with many of the faculty and students living within Forest Grove, this also favorably contributes to the city's overall mindset.
Touted as the first city of Washington County, Forest Grove is also known for another first: the premier vintage car show in the region. Concours d'Elegance has been happening every summer for almost 30 years. It brings thousands of visitors to the Pacific University campus to view pre- and post-World War II classic cars.
Forest Grove is also known as the home of one of Oregon's largest and oldest sequoias. This gorgeous, natural giant measures 32 feet around and 152 feet tall and has been deemed an Oregon State heritage tree.

Coresight analysts also anticipate more retailers will file for bankruptcy this year, and that more companies could end up liquidating entirely in Chapter 7.
Accelerating closures and bankruptcies in 2020 is the coronavirus pandemic, which Coresight CEO Deborah Weinswig said in the report will "provide a sharp shock to physical retail."
Around 100 retailers have moved to shut all, or at least many, of their stores temporarily as the country responds to rapidly expanding cases of COVID-19 domestically. According to Bloomberg data, more than 47,000 stores closed in a 10-day period — an unprecedented disruption of the entire industry.
"We anticipate that some of the retailers that have recently announced temporary store closures — including some well-known names — will never reopen their doors," Weinswig said in the Coresight report. "The enforced closures will hit retailers with limited cash/low liquidity, those already pinched badly by structural shifts and company-specific weaknesses, and those which are unable to translate whatever remaining consumer demand there is into sales on their websites."
The ranks of distressed retailers were already challenged going into 2020. At the outset of the year, the American consumer seemed healthy and relatively optimistic despite last year's trade wars. But many retailers saw sales decline in the fourth quarter — a make or break period that contributes outsized fractions of a retailer's cash and annual profits.
The closures create an immediate need for cash and liquidity. Companies that are highly leveraged or were going through cash crunches because of falling sales are in even more precarious positions. For those that fail and are forced to liquidate entirely in bankruptcy, they could be outsized contributors to the total store count, as they were in 2019.
But a wide cross-section of retail is in for a tough time as governments order residents to stay home and stores to close, or as consumers voluntarily self isolate to avoid catching or spreading COVID-19.
Weinswig said that the impact "will be especially hard on retailers of discretionary goods, with apparel retail, department stores, home and home improvement retail and electronics and appliances retail set to be significantly affected." That falling demand for discretionary retail could be a driving force of permanent store closures later in the year.
More, consumers may not ever return to their previous shopping habits as they turn to e-commerce and mass merchants for an extended period. A looming recession could also lead consumers to pull back spending, which could deal a second blow to retailers. Alternatively, consumers could return to stores when the pandemic concerns have calmed, as a way to get out of the house.
