An extended cost study consisting of 14 process scenarios was carried out to envisage the cost impact of microprocessing and microwaves separately or in combination for two liquid-phase model reactions in fine-chemicals synthesis: (1) Ullmann C–O cross-coupling reaction and (2) the aspirin synthesis. The former, a Cu-catalyzed substitution reaction, was based on an experimental investigation, whereas the latter, a noncatalyzed aromatic esterification reaction, was based on literature data. The cost of 4-phenoxypyridine production, as a pharmaceutical intermediate in the synthesis of vancomycin or vancocin, was compared with that of the synthesis of aspirin, a key example of large-scale fine-chemical production plants. The operating costs in the Ullmann synthesis were found to be related to materialbased process (reactant excess, pretreatment, and catalyst synthesis), whereas those in the aspirin synthesis appeared to be related to downstream-based process (workup, waste treatment). The impact of an integrated microwave heating and microprocessing system on profitability was demonstrated with respect to operational cost and chemical productivity. Different modes of microwave heating and catalyst supply were studied and compared with conventional oilbath-heated systems in batch and continuous processes. The overall costs including profitability breakthrough for a competitive market price of product were obtained from various combinations of heating and processing. In case of the Ullmann synthesis, the CAPEX (capital expenditure) was negligible compared to the OPEX (operational expenditure), whereas in the aspirin synthesis, the CAPEX was found around 40%, both at a production scales of 1–10 kg/day using proposed upscale methods. The source of the catalyst strongly determined the profitability of a continuously operated Ullmann process due to its effect on the chemical performance. Higher energy efficiencies could be attained using single-mode microwave irradiation; however, the energy contribution to the overall cost was found to be negligible. Different scenarios provided a cost-feasible and profitable process; nevertheless, an integrated microwave heating and microflow processing led to a cost-efficient system using a micropacked-bed reactor in comparison to wall-coated microreactor, showing a profit margin of 20%.

Maven plugin to deploy k-jar container on remote kie-server.

Default goalPrefix: __kieserver__.
Actual goals are: __deploy__, __dispose__ and __update__.

## Plugin configuration

On pom.xml of local project add plugin:

```xml
<build>
    <plugins>
        ...
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.kie.server</groupId>
            <artifactId>kie-server-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>7.52.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
            <configuration>
                <username>${kieserver.username}</username>
                <password>${kieserver.password}</password>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>

    </plugins>
</build>
```

## Goal: deploy

Deploy the actual kjar project on remote server.

**Note: Deploy procedure does not transfer the kjar over remote server, but only the reference to the artifact.
Remote kie server needs to access, during deploy phase, to kjar and all dependencies.**

Deploy procedure send to remote kie-server only the reference to the k-jar.
Group id, artifact id and version are taken from the maven local project.

It means that **Goal requires project**.

Deploy on kie server is synchronous. It means that the control is released to the client only when the container is running or the deploying process has failed.

By default the container name follows the unified execution convention: container name is the maven GAV.
To change container name see **Parameter: container** chapter below.

By default the plugin perform deploy on kie server at:
**http://localhost:8080/kie-server**

To change kie-server references, set the **hostname**, **port**, **protocol** and **context-path** properties described below.

Authentication is performed using HTTP basic auth. Properties **username** and **password** are mandatory.

### Change the runtime strategy

By default the runtime strategy is defined in the k-jar deployment descriptor.
To override it is possible to set *deploy.runtime-strategy* parameter with a valid runtime strategy string.
Possible values are:

1.    SINGLETON: single kie-session for each container
2.    PER_REQUEST: single kie-session for each invocation / request / thread
3.    PER_PROCESS_INSTANCE: single kie-session for each process instance inside the same request
4.    PER_CASE: case management strategy

####Deploy example
```
mvn kieserver:deploy -Ddeploy.username=fabio -Ddeploy.password=fabio\$739
```

To override k-jar deployment descriptor runtime strategy:

```
mvn kieserver:deploy -Ddeploy.username=fabio -Ddeploy.password=fabio\$739 -Ddeploy.runtime-strategy=PER_REQUEST
```
Alternatively every parameter could be set in configuration plugin

```xml
<plugin>
	<groupId>org.kie.server</groupId>
	<artifactId>kie-server-maven-plugin</artifactId>
	<version>7.52.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
	<configuration>
		<username>${kieserver.username}</username>
		<password>${kieserver.password}</password>
		<runtimeStrategy>${kieserver.runtimeStrategy}</runtimeStrategy>
	</configuration>
</plugin>
```
```
mvn kieserver:deploy
```

## Goal: dispose

Dispose the actual k-jar project on remote server.

By default the container name follows the unified execution convention: container name is the maven GAV.
To change container name see *Parameter: container* chapter below.

**Goal not requires project**

By default the plugin perform deploy on kie server at:
**http://localhost:8080/kie-server**

To change kie-server references, set the **hostname**, **port**, **protocol** and **context-path** properties described below.

Authentication is performed using HTTP basic auth. Properties **username** and **password** are mandatory.

####Dispose example
```
mvn kieserver:dispose -Ddeploy.username=fabio -Ddeploy.password=fabio\$739
```

## Goal: update

Update the actual k-jar project on remote server.

Deploy procedure send to remote kie-server only the reference to the k-jar.
Group id, artifact id and version are taken from the maven local project.

It means that **Goal requires project**.

By default the container name follows the unified execution convention: container name is the maven GAV.
To change container name see *Parameter: container* chapter below.

By default the plugin perform deploy on kie server at:
**http://localhost:8080/kie-server**

To change kie-server references, set the **hostname**, **port**, **protocol** and **context-path** properties described below.

Authentication is performed using HTTP basic auth. Properties **username** and **password** are mandatory.

####Update example
```
mvn mvn kieserver:update -Ddeploy.username=fabio -Ddeploy.password=fabio\$739
```
## Parameters

The runtime-strategy parameter is specific of goal deploy.
All other parameters, described in the next section, are common to all goals.

### Parameter: container

Name: __container__

Required: __false__

Default value: __maven project GAV string__

By default container name is the GAV of the current maven project.

I'm Seeing a Trend in Music…
September 26, 2010 Tony Peters
I'm seeing a trend in music, and it's a good one: bands are going back to the basics. I'll admit, for the last ten years or so, I haven't been too excited about any new music. But, here recently, things are changing for the better. I have a theory, see what you think.
When Grunge hit in the early Nineties, it sent a lot of the older bands reeling. In trying to stay relevant, they recorded music that simply wasn't honest.
"Don't Tell Me What Love Can Do" was a departure from the party-rock Van Halen was known for, Def Leppard chimed in with the downer Slang album, and even Sir Paul McCartney did "The World Tonight," one of the darkest tracks he's ever written. Other bands took the dance route: U2 did Pop, John Mellencamp recorded Mr. Happy Go Lucky, and even roots-rock stalwarts the Rolling Stones went electronic with Bridges to Babylon. Listening to all these records now, they're all interesting, but most of them are failures and wouldn't be considered in their best work.
The difference now is that veteran bands know that the current state of top 40 has no place for them, so they don't need to try and keep up with the trends. Instead, they can make the kind of music that is their strength. The Doobie Brothers reunited with longtime producer Ted Templeman to produce World Gone Crazy, an album that feels like putting on a pair of old shoes. Foghat released Last Train Home, an excellent record entirely devoted to blues tunes, while Mellencamp went way back to the basics by recording at the famed Sun studios for No Better Than This. Many bands are going back and recording on tape instead of digital, like the new Korn CD. Krokus have recorded their best album in decades, Hoodoo, by simply returning to what got them together in the first place: AC/DC-styled rock n' roll.
So, if you've been disillusioned with music over the last decade or so, I'm with you – I feel your pain. But, do yourself a favor and look around: you might find something you like.

Jacques Brinkman (Utrecht, 26 augustus 1966) is een voormalig Nederlands tophockeyer. Op 28 juli 2006 nam Jeroen Delmee het stokje van recordinternational van hem over. Brinkman speelde 337 interlands (84 doelpunten). Zijn erelijst is onovertroffen in het Nederlandse hockey. Hij nam viermaal deel aan de Olympische Spelen en won hierbij in totaal drie medailles.

Brinkman maakte zijn debuut voor Oranje op 1 mei 1987 in de oefeninterland West-Duitsland tegen Nederland (1–2). Met de nationale ploeg werd hij wereldkampioen (1990, 1998), olympisch kampioen (1996, 2000) en Europees kampioen (1987). De Champions Trophy won hij in 1996, 1998, 2000 en de Intercontinental Cup in 1989.

In dat laatste jaar nam Sjek afscheid als international. De middenvelder kwam in de Nederlandse Hoofdklasse uit voor Kampong, Amsterdam en SCHC. Bij die laatste club was hij sinds de zomer van 2003 hoofdtrainer. Sinds het seizoen 2007/08 was hij de hoofdtrainer van Laren.

NOBLESVILLE, Ind. – Noblesville announced today they are launching an investigation into hazardous chemical spills at the Indiana Transportation Museum.
The City of Noblesville and Noblesville Parks and Recreation Board told the museum they're in "serious default" due to to unlawful handling of hazardous chemicals.
An inspection found the museum was storing chemicals outside. The containers were leaking and there were ground stains of oils, grease, diesel fuel and other products and chemicals used for the maintenance of the museum's former railroad operations, which it has leased since the 1990s.
The city asked the museum to clean up the issues within 60 days. Then they have three months to find a way to permanently remove the contamination.
"This is another example of local political leaders' unwillingness to work with the ITM and its new leadership to resolve differences. This latest release is simply another trumped up charge to reduce the significant public outcry against the cities of Fishers and Noblesville to rip up the rails.


The longest day in the race, this could be a day for a breakaway. As well as the usual preview fare there's also a quick note below on the GP E3 Harelbeke which is planned to finish 20 minutes after today's stage.
Stage 4 Wrap: an early breakaway contained Thomas de Gendt who kept alive hopes of a repeat of his Stelvio stage win in the 2012 Giro at least until he was caught with 7km to go.
Before the race started we expected a battle between Chris Froome and Alberto Contador but the Queen Stage skipped a generation with a win for Tejay van Garderen, aged 25, his first in the UCI World Tour. When the others jumped on Stage 4 he quietly winched his way across to them; this time he was the one with the explosive finish and took the stage just ahead of Ag2r's Romain Bardet, age 23. Froome and Contador did try some moves but they were reeled in with Joaquim Rodriguez policing his rivals. The cold was a big factor, -3°C at the finish and despite the uphill effort the riders were frozen with Bardet unable to change gears thanks to frozen hands. When Joaquim Rodriguez walked onto the podium he did so with a theatrical shiver and rubbing his hands to show the cold.
It all means the GC is as foggy as yesterday's finish and with the top seven riders separated by just 18 seconds. The return of time bonuses means we could see some scrapping especially as Sunday's final stage on the Montjuic circuit is just the kind of place where a rider can pull out a few seconds.
The longest stage of the race, the race sweeps south-west across Catalonia. That final spike after 210km is on a Nacional road, meaing it's wide and the kind trucks can use. But it's still 6km at 4.8% with a hairpin bend just before Lilla. The descent is equally large.
The Finish: a flat finish in town on a wide road but preceded by a couple of tight turns in the final 1,500m.
The Scenario: a breakaway or a sprint? If this was any other stage race the odds would lean to a bunch sprint because several teams would chase all day to set up their riders. Only here there aren't enough sprinters and accompanying teams.
The Contenders: if it's a sprint Luka Mezgec (Giant-Shimano) has been well above the others. Orica's Leigh Howard is his biggest rival but lost leadout wingman Brett Lancaster yesterday.
As for a breakaway it's a random pick, maybe Thomas Voeckler again but there are few riders who might feel obliged to try after coming a little short in the mountains. Think Lieuwe Westra, Pierre Rolland, Przemyslaw Niemiec or Jurgen Van Den Broeck. This isn't meant as a criticism, more that the race hasn't worked out but they have the talent to try an alternative.
Weather: after the snow and fog the 15ºC might feel warm especially if the sun pokes through the cloud. There will be a 20km/h crosswind for most of the day, normally the minimum windspeed to split the bunch but this isn't Belgium and the experts of the echelon are doing the GP E3 Harelbeke.
E3 Harelbeke: time limits mean a preview of this race isn't possible but it's on today and on TV too with Eurosport and other means using the links above. The finish is expected around 5.20pm which is ideal to catch the end but beware in case the race runs ahead of schedule.
Daily Diaz on the economy: 18 % of Spanish wealth is produced in Catalonia. Traditionally the most industrialised of the country, Catalan economy relies nowadays on the services, and is a very popular tourist destination (especially Barcelona). In Catalan nationalism there is an economic factor, as many people feel Catalonia gives Spain more money than other regions and gets less in return, which might explain the unemployment rate.
What a bore yesterday, fog or no fog. Contador complained of the course. It can certainly be improved. Last year it was better. But we still need some ITT there… And when will the race use the Coll de Fumanya/Pradell?? And when will it return to the Mont Caro? And you're right, what's all this use of "Nacionales"? Good races require narrow, twisted country roads! Anyway, let's hope these last 2 days in the cold take some toll, and we can see some surprises and ambushes in the last stages.
Nice post. Gonna be good today.
all makes me quite optimistic for some great GC racing in the summer actually. Is it just me or have the rest of the peleton finally woken up and caught up with Sky in preparation, appliance of (legit) science, marginal whatnots etc etc.
maybe the Death Star pull it all together, but I actually hope they don't….
I totally understand the technical difficulties that lead to a lack of pictures yesterday, but I'm at a loss as to why something couldn't be salvaged, at least for the final climb. Give a couple of the motorbike cameramen on the front of the race cameras that record the action internally and then edit together 30 minutes for the fans to watch as highlights afterwards.
OK, not perfect and does require a little forward planning, but this is the queen stage with big names battling it out. Instead all we get is a white screen and Kirby's usual blathering.
Why does everyone hate the commentators?
turn the sound down and watch the race!
well said I don't watch it for the commentators. I watch for the race.

I'm referring to last week's news about her getting a "wake-up call" from her daughters' pediatrician about their BMIs sneaking up on them and her taking corrective action. And for a parent who pleaded with the media to respect her daughters' privacy (and rightfully so), I found it shocking that in her efforts to tackle the childhood obesity problem, she would reach into her own family fold to underscore her point.
I posted on "Generation BMI" back in November and there was some excellent commentary that followed. Upon researching further, I learned that experts generally have the opinion that girls who develop eating disorders do so between ages eleven and fourteen. The eldest Obama child is eleven. Imagine being an adolescent on such an international stage in the first place. Do you remember the confusing mix of emotions when you were that age? The desire to fit in and the self-consciousness of your every move? It's bad enough to have to grow up in the public eye where people are scrutinizing everything you do, but when your mother calls you out about your BMI, well, that's just a boatload of therapy waiting to happen.
I'll grant you that childhood obesity is a serious problem but I don't think using your children as examples on the world stage is the way to go. Yes, it personalizes your passion but let's remember that these children never signed up for this fishbowl existence in the first place. That was their parents' decision and they would do well to keep their girls as sheltered as possible. But now that the BMI genie is out of the bottle, the cute vacation scenes of the First Family going out for ice cream will take on a whole different meaning. "Dear, are you sure you should be eating that?" Please tell me that's never going to happen.
I leave open the possibility that I'm just getting crankier in my old age and most of you won't see a thing wrong with this. I believe that open dialogue is a good thing against bad problems but I wish adults would leave their children out of mature matters until they're old enough to make their own decision on whether or not they want to be involved; especially when it's on such a personal level. Looking out for our children's well-being is every parent's responsibility - and that goes for their fragile little psyches, too.
What do you think? Should Mama Obama keep the family BMI to herself or are the daughters fair game in this childhood obesity battle?
Oh no! That's TMI. I know that she's trying to make a point and to connect with other people, but seriously, she should leave her girls out of it. They're too young, this is too stressful, it's too sensitive of an issue, it's too public... it's just too much. Some things should just stay personal. I mean, how would Michelle Obama feel if she were them? I'm pretty damn sure she wouldn't be happy.
I'm sorry, but this really annoys me - parents who complain about the media in their children's lives and then blabber all this info to the media when it suits them. UGH!
I'm on the fence. While I acknowledge the real life pitfalls of public scrutiny and hurt feelings, my dearest wish is that we could look at BMI as just one statistic in the overall picture of health, like blood pressure. It's an indicator, a flawed one, it really should not be a dark secret or an assessment of character. I would bet that Mrs Obama is not terribly worried the girls are going to get fat-- like most of us mothers, she's keeping an eye on it, and she's openly admitting she's keeping an eye on it. Is that so awful? I don't think so.
If you see pictures of her daughters they are obviously thin and don't have a weight problem. Who knows if she is telling the truth about their BMI or not, but I think it was a safe way for her to introduce that small changes can make a difference-and making it personal keeps it less preachy on her part. If her children were chubby or obviously overweight I do think it would be TMI, but I think it was her way to make her recommendations in a way that would make her more relatable. I don't really think it's wrong (but not right either)-I honestly think it's not true (the BMI issue) and she probably-hopefully- had a talk with both daughters before hand so they would know what she was saying and why.
My friend and I are both overweight-my daughter is not her daughter is. I'm sure if I were to give her advice on her daughter she would not be receptive to it at all. BUT if I said my daughter was gaining weight and I was concerned about it she would be very open to talk about the issues she is having and what she is doing to help her. No one wants to be preached at-and I think that's why Michelle Obama related the BMI issue to her children.
I generally think the BMI is not a very accurate indicator of much of anything. And those children do not look even remotely overweight. I wish she hadn't gone there. Especially considering what you said about the ages that girls develop eating disorders. Yikes.
I admire the Obama's as parents and I'm really surprised by this. It does seem like she made an error in judgment.
The BMI isn't always the best indicator of health anyway. Recently I saw a report that said according to the BMI charts, Tom Cruise and LeBron James are both obese. LOL! If they are obese, sign me up.
It's personal info. None of our business.
I hope Mama Obama at least asked her daughter's permission before dishing the information. The number may not be a big deal, but it's still private.
I think Gina has a good point. If the child were involved, then this becomes a 'going public trying to be helpful' kind of thing.
If Mama Obama is doing this to her child, well, it would probably give me food issues. Maybe her daughter is stronger.
I'm wondering if she's telling them something different off camera and just using this as an opportunity to bring up "public health". At least I hope so.
Also, BMI is a terrible indicator. I'm on the high end of the healthy weight range, but when I had my body fat tested I'm in technically "underfat". If I was in the normal body fat range, I'd be overweight.
They should really do a different test for physical fitness; something that gauges how long you'd REALLY last running away from zombies.
They are public figures. And in this post-Clinton-DNA-on-Dress era, I'm not sure how much "I" is TMI anymore. Obesity is a health concern, and there is increasing public awareness about it. While the BMI may not be the most accurate measurement, it can set a good example. As long as people don't get crazy about it and go to the other extreme.
Love the zombie test! And I bet the girls would probably do fine on it.
I'm really disappointed by this. Not only for the intrusiveness and possible damage to the kids themselves, but also for reinforcing the message that for little girls, you can never worry enough about their weight.
Yes, obesity is a public health issue, but so are eating disorders and low self-esteem. If society weren't already so screwed up about women and the importance of their superficial apppearance it might not be a problem, but society IS screwed up about it. There are a million other ways to promote exercise and healthy eating besides openly fretting over your girls' BMI's.
As a Mom to two girls who was obese as a child and remains as an adult, I would say that BMI is a concern. We do have to worry about our children's health.
My oldest, who is by far not overweight, has started talking about being fat. She doesn't get this from home. I don't talk about being overweight or fat. I exercise and eat healthy so they can model that from me. I have her in physical activities and team sports so she can learn to make fitness a part of her everyday life.
I think the Obamas have a right to restrict the use of their girls; especially by the media and business profiting from the girls' image--like those dolls that came out after the inauguration. The girls aren't fair game for the public to attack or profit from, but if the Obamas want to discuss a National concern and want to relay how they are addressing their issues with their daughters, then I think she is doing a great service to draw attention.
I would say that we would also be critical of the Obamas if she took on the issue of childhood BMIs and never relayed information on how they are tackling it as a family.
You know, whether or not BMI is a good measure of obesity doesn't matter. In all of the obesity epidemic talk, there's talk of BMI, so it's implied high BMI = fat. And that's what her girls will hear. The fact is, her kids aren't fat. There's no need to hold them up as an example. Like you said, they didn't ask to be in the spotlight. And now not only are they in the spotlight but they're there for one of the most mortifying things tween and teen girls can experience, being called different/fat.
There are other ways to get the message across.
I don't think she should have said anything about her daughter's BMI; however, giving ideas of what foods they eat is setting a good example that people might follow.
I cringed when I heard this news, can you imagine how embarrassed her girls are? TMI indeed.
Yeah, that really did bother me. Michelle, I love you and all, but FFS there are some things you do not need to blab to the entire world.
One of the (many) things that bothers me about this is that they're talking about the BMI (a hugely flawed measure) of children who haven't even finished puberty yet. So many kids grow out before they grow up, or vice versa, so how could BMI possibly be useful at that age (even if it were useful at other ages?) I'm so disappointed in Mrs. Obama for taking this non-issue as her campaign of choice.
I haven't seen/read anything about this, but I agree that it seems wrong. Unless, as others have said, it was merely a strategy to open the discussion and she talked to her daughters about it so far. Even then though...Does anyone really need to be exposed to that kind of media attention? Especially a child. I would worry about the effect it was going to have on them.
I have to really think about this one, thanks for posting!!
Poor girl! That is just embarrassing. It'd be bad enough for a mother to mention something like that at a family bbq, but to the entire country? Not very kind.
If she wants to use her family as a role model to connect to people, I think she could just as easily point out how her family strives to eat healthfully and exercise regularly (while actually doing so, of course) without getting so personal.
I've been saying this for a long time now - if my kids (future possibility children - none currently) ever start to get chunky/overweight, they will go on a diet but THEY WILL NEVER EVER KNOW. Kids should not have that burden on them. Generally, if kids are overweight it's the fault of the parents feeding them - not the kids themselves. My kids diet may change, but they will never know that's its associated with anything to do with their bodies.
The Obama girls will probably never have a weight problem. It's not in their genes. But given what Michelle has done, I wouldn't be surprised if we find out (possibly many years after the fact)that one or both of the girls had an eating disorder at some point in time (bulimia or anorexia).
I am a great admirer of the Obamas, but I think Michelle has made a terrible mistake.
When my daughter was 11, the pediatrician told her she was too high on the growth chart for her weight. She proceeded to tell her she was in danger of getting diabetes, blah, blah, blah. I saw my daughter sink...she was in a panick, worried she had diabetes. All of the self esteem I had tried to instill in her was out. the. door. Many talks and conversations later, she's at a healthy place and the young woman hormones have settled and she's at a very healthy weight. I don't think you should ever make an example of your young daughter. They are much too fragile at that time of life. Just teach healthy habits and live them yourself.
I have to wonder if she talked with her girls about going public first. I had not heard this story so I don't know about it but they seem like a family that talks about things from my outside perspective.
Although BMI gets mixed reviews, it still is one indicator & we should pay attention to it along with other risk factors.
My first thought on reading about the BMI comment was "What?!? Those girls are skinny!" But of course BMI is a horrible indicator of health. I don't really see an issue with her bringing it up - as long as the point is "we must be vigilant to our children's health - not to put them on a diet, but to help them learn that healthy activities (like playing outside) are fun too." There are many ways children become over weight and just as many to deal with them. Sticking them on a diet is not the only option, nor is ridiculing their choices. Dragging them outside to play and go on hikes etc etc is a healthy alternative that shouldn't focus so much on the child as to increase her chances of an eating disorder. I don't think Michelle ever said she threw the BMI's in the kid's faces and said "no more cookies!"
I agree that she should not be discussing the weight of her children with the world.
First of all, those are young, healthy girls who are growing up and it can be very detrimental to their physical development to restrict their calories at this age.
Not to mention their overall well-being when they are growing up as the President's daughters (remember Chelsea?) so let's leave them out of public discussion. The public in general is a bunch of a**holes and those girls do not need that.
I think you made the point pretty well! It's not only TMI, its a really insensitive thing to do to your kids, and we all know BMI is bunk anyway. The Obama girls are young, precious, and just seem like nice kids. Why start feeding them the old body dysmorphia pudding so early? If their mom thinks they need to focus on being healthier, she should bring it up with them privately.
One doesn't need to -- and, frankly, I think one should not -- share a child's BMI. Maybe not even with the child. That is such a critical time for developing one's self image.
But I AGREE with Gigi.
And ALSO: BMI is a flawed measurement to use with ADULTS, but absolutely HORRIBLE to use on CHILDREN.
Some kids get a little pudgy before a growth spurt.
Look at Barack's photos from childhood--he was a tad chunky in a few. And look at him now.
Usually, I'm cool with Michelle Obama, but this is really uncool of her.
Also, apologies if I'm repeating something already said--I didn't read ALL the comments THOROUGHLY.
Okay - I actually read the article you're referring to and I don't think that anything was wrong with her statements. She was saying that her kids USED to have some indicators of BMI issues from the family doc...she doesn't say when this happened. For all we know it could've been years ago and the reason that her kids look healthy now is because she took action by promoting healthy behaviors.
I don't think that she did anything wrong - in fact, I applaud her for being able to relate to parents these days.
I think she should just keep it within the family. I know I'd hate for everyone to know my BMI if I were at that girl's age. Fighting child obesity with her own daughter as an example is too much. Especially when the numbers are revealed.
I think being a part of a famous family is hard enough. I don't think the Obama's should really be sharing this information with the world.
I saw part of the interview. The message was about good behaviors, and that it's NO LONGER A CONCERN because of changes that are easy to incorporate and can become habits. Why would an issue that has been overcome be an embarassment. As another poster said, it's easier to start the dialog by using personal examples. Keep it up, Mrs Obama!

Mets furious rally falls short in loss to Phillies, presented by W.B. Mason
Sep 24, 2016 | 11:17PM
By Michael Avallone | Sep 24, 2016 | 11:17PM
Sean Gilmartin didn't make it out of the first inning but the Mets nearly completed a historic comeback before ultimately falling short in a 10-8 loss to the Phillies on Saturday night at Citi Field.
Filling in for a sick Noah Syndergaard, Gilmartin (0-1) surrendered a three-run homer to Maikel Franco and after walking the eight-place hitter intentionally, a two-run single to the opposing pitcher. He was charged with five runs on four hits and three walks in two-thirds of an inning.
Despite striking out seven in 3 1/3 innings, Rafael Montero allowed five runs in relief of Gilmartin to put the Mets in a 10-0 hole.
New York rallied for eight unanswered runs, six coming in the fifth and sixth innings. T.J. Rivera and Gavin Cecchini each went 2-for-3 with two RBIs. The first of Cecchini's two-run scoring doubles was his first Major League hit.
Although they trailed by 10 runs in the fifth, New York brought the winning run to the plate in the ninth with one out. Lucas Duda popped out and Travis d'Arnaud grounded out to end the game.
Jose Reyes, Asdrubal Cabrera, Yoenis Cespedes and Curtis Granderson were all pulled from the game prior to the fifth inning.

Video: Gavin Cecchini's first career hit is an RBI double
Video: Ty Kelly cuts down AJ Ellis at the plate
Video: Brandon Nimmo hits an RBI double to right field
Terry Collins on the comeback: "There were a lot of good at-bats today. Really a lot of good ones. Unfortunately we just couldn't pull it off, we just got too far behind early. … We came back and gave ourselves a chance to win."
Gilmartin on his start: "I wasn't really good. … Preparation-wise I was ready to do my job and I wasn't able to and that's on me."
Cecchini on his first big league hit: "It was crazy. I think I almost tripped going around first base but it was awesome, man. It's something you always dreamed of as a kid. Being out there and getting your first big league hit and it's like a weight is lifted off your shoulders. I'm really grateful."
New York's lead over St. Louis was cut to a half-game after the Cardinals win over the Cubs on Saturday afternoon.
The Mets have scored 27 runs in their last three games. New York tallied 24 runs in the nine games prior to the series with Philadelphia.
Gilmartin and Friday's starter, Gabriel Ynoa, combined to allow seven runs and nine hits in 2 2/3 innings as the last two starters. Gilmartin was the 10th different starting pitcher New York has used in the last 39 games.
Jay Bruce was out of the lineup for the sixth time in seven games but he slugged a pinch-hit jack in the ninth for his 30th home run of the season and fifth as a Met. It is Bruce's fourth 30-homer season and first since 2013.
The Mets (82-73) will play their regular-season finale at Citi Field against the Phillies (70-85) on Sunday afternoon at 1:10 p.m. ET on PIX11. Robert Gsellman (2-2, 3.13 ERA, 1.39 WHIP) will try to snap a three-start winless streak while pitching New York to a series win. Rookie Jake Thompson (3-5, 5.62 ERA, 1.47 WHIP) has won consecutive starts after winning once in his first seven big league appearances.

June'21 eBook Haul
Clearly, I didn't pay attention to just how many times I One-Clicked books on Amazon…or pre-ordered them. I honestly can't remember the last time I hauled this many eBooks in a month. Have a read any of them…well, a few. I mostly blame the Stolen Brides of the Fae series – because one, it's a handful of books, and two, I went and bought some of the author's other books. I mean, of course I had to look at their works and figure out if anything else immediately caught my eye…clearly, they did.
But most of these books are by authors I've read before – quite a few are new to me, and I've definitely found some new favorites. I don't regret hauling a bunch of eBooks – they take up less space and honestly, are easier to read. I don't know about you, but it's a hell of a lot easier and comfortable to curl up with my Kindle over a physical book. With my Kindle I don't need lights, or my glasses and at the end of the day, that's preferrable. Also, eBooks just tend to read faster – I don't know why that is.
But enough of me rambling on.
Let's take a look at what eBooks I hauled in June – it's a lot.

Book Review: the Art of Breaking Up
Blog Tour – Book Review: You & Me at the End of the World


If you're drinking during the day, the odds are you're in for a rough day, or at the very least, a mid-afternoon nap. Alcohol.org surveyed day drinkers and found out a lot about what happens when you imbibe while the sun is still out.
They surveyed just over 1,000 drinkers about how often they day drink and what exactly transpired when they do. According to the survey, men are 12 percent more likely to drink during the day with 28 percent of men day drinking every few months and 39 percent of women throwing back a few while the sun is still out. Maybe it's the rise of brunch culture, but 29 percent of men and 19 percent of women claim to day drink once per week.
Unsurprisingly, the beach and concerts were the hottest spots for binge drinking during the day; men who consume eight or more drinks at each of those venues. Women's top places for day drinking are resorts and stadiums and they average around six drinks each.
If you're going to booze it up during the day, you're likely to overdo it. The biggest offender of potential hangovers? Wine. Seventy-seven percent of drinkers saying that wine leaves you feeling the worst. But wine isn't the only culprit for nausea and headaches; vodka, champagne, beer, whiskey, tequila, and rum all contribute to those symptoms, too.
Day drinking is a marathon, not a sprint. Always make sure to stay hydrated and always have a designated driver. And try to avoid these five hangover offenders if you want to be lucid the morning after.
Wine is delicious. The only problem is that if you spend a whole evening downing a bottle of wine, you're going to end up with a wicked hangover. This is because wine is full of extra additives and sugars that will leave you feeling like your head is going to explode.
It might seem like vodka is hangover-free because it's clear. But, that's where you'd be making a mistake so bad you'll have to waste a vacation day while you lie on the couch in horrible pain watching Netflix all day. The cheaper the vodka, the more likely it will contain extra sugars and congeners that can leave you feeling pretty terrible the next day.
Similar to wine (since technically Champagne is sparkling wine), Champagne has the tendency to leave drinkers with a bad hangover after a night of celebrating. This is because the bubbles help your body absorb the alcohol at a quicker rate, so a Champagne buzz has a tendency to sneak up on people. So does a hangover.
Here's another form of hangover-inducing alcohol that should be fairly obvious. The clearer and purer a spirit is, the less likely you'll be to get a hangover. News flash: whiskey isn't clear (unless you're enjoying moonshine). Whiskey is chocked full of congeners, the materials that end up in the whiskey after distillation and aging. Darker liquors have way more congeners than gins and vodkas.
This one should be a no-brainer. Unless you're drinking some magical, clear, adjunct-free beer, you're going to end up with a hangover if you overindulge. That's because beer contains sugar, yeast, and all kinds of pesky congeners and adjuncts depending on the beer.


The Knesset's Wednesday session lasted about seven and a half hours. Eight bills were discussed. Three bills were advanced after passing their preliminary readings, one was turned into a motion, one was withdrawn in order to prevent defeat, and three were defeated. The bills advanced would grant women born before 1931 who receive an old age pension an additional allowance, change the perception of anorexia under law so that it is treated as a mental illness, and allow tax deductions to encourage settlements. Among the bills defeated were two that deal with the ultra-orthodox and Arabs serving in some sort of civilian service. A particularly interesting day caused a spike in attendance.
* Deputy Prime Minister Ya'alon (Likud), Deputy Education Minister Moses (U.T.J.) and Homeland Security Minister Aharonovitch (Y.B.) answered queries to open the session.
* Ten motions were discussed on a wide range of topics. Nine of the motions were sent to committee for further discussion by the votes 8-0, 8-0, 5-0, 10-0, 5-2, 5-0, 6-0, 5-0 and 7-0. One motion was not voted on.
* Homeland Security Minister Aharonovitch answered 12 queries at the end of the session.
MK Gafni (U.T.J.) explained his amendment would grant eligibility for an allowance in addition to an old age pension that housewives and widows born before 1931 receive. He said that a 1996 amendment prevents women who were born before 1931 from receiving the allowance for budget reasons. He revealed that he learned about this technicality when he was confronted by a woman on a radio program and pledged to fix the situation. He confessed the bill will cost between NIS 25-30 million a year but stressed that the cost will decrease every year. He said the current situation is unequal and must be rectified as soon as possible. He praised the media for bringing this subject to his attention. He went on to slam the Supreme Court for repeatedly discriminating against the ultra-orthodox Jews in court cases. He said there is no justice, integrity or equality in the Supreme Court.
Labor and Welfare Minister Kahlon (Likud) expressed government support for the bill. He said these women who are over the age of 80 and are eligible for the program number 6,200 and will cost the government NIS 34 million a year. He said that his ministry is pouring NIS 28 million into the program.
The bill passed its preliminary reading 28-0 and was sent to the Funds Committee.
MK Adatto (Kadima) explained her amendment would force involuntary hospitalization for those with mental disorders, including anorexia. She went on to speak about the dangers of anorexia and noted there are more young women who die from anorexia than traffic accidents or cancer. She said last year in the Tel Hashomer hospital alone 22 girls checked themselves out of the hospital against their doctors' wishes and died. She said her amendment would treat anorexia as a mental disorder and prevent their discharge in cases where the doctors want to keep the patient hospitalized. She said this bill will save lives.
Deputy Health Minister Litzman (U.T.J.) expressed government support for the bill, although he thinks this bill isn't necessary.
The bill passed its preliminary reading 40-0 and was sent to the Health Committee.
MK Khenin (Hadash) explained his amendment would bring equality and transparency to the admission process for educational institutions. He said that there is widespread discrimination of minority groups and charged they are not accepted to certain schools because of racist motives. He said his bill would also allow a parent to appeal a decision by a school if they feel they were discriminated against. He said an educational institution that breaks his law would be subject to a NIS 50,000 fine. He said he would pull his bill from a vote in order to convince the government to support it.
MK Elkin (Likud) explained his amendment would allow non-profit organizations to recognize funds used to encourage settlement in the Negev and the Galil as a tax deduction. He said that the country has stopped encouraging settlement and it is time the non-profits received recognition for picking up the slack.
MK Shai (Kadima) announced he opposed the bill on the grounds that Judea and Samaria are included in the bill. He said that Kadima is against the bill. MK Schneller (Kadima) countered that Kadima supports the bill. The two of them argued until Speaker Rivlin silenced the dispute.
MK Gal-On (Meretz) announced that she and Meretz are against the bill. She said this bill is meant to help Judea and Samaria and her party can't support it. She said that two thirds of the NGOs are ultra-orthodox and the right think they are hurting the left. Deputy Ministers Litzman and Moses got into an argument with Gal-On, and Speaker Rivlin threw Moses out. Gal-On slammed the government and the bill and told everyone to oppose the bill.
MK Elkin responded that he is proud that his name is one that makes them think of Judea and Samaria. He rejected the claims that is a Judea and Samaria bill and stressed it is a Negev and Galil bill. He said that instead of helping the leftist voters they are blinded by their hatred for Judea and Samaria. He told them they should be embarrassed that they are leftist and voting against the Negev and Galil.
The bill passed its preliminary reading 49-20 and was sent to the Funds Committee.
MK Solodkin (Kadima) complained that social workers constantly remove children from their parents too quickly and before they really check the situation out. She said problematic social workers must be punished. She said that a social worker's testimony always carries the most weight in child custody cases. She noted that many times the court sends the children back to their parents, but the scars the children encounter are great. She explained her bill would punish social workers who are found guilty of perjury with a fine of NIS 25,000 and a jail sentence of 7-9 years. She slammed the government for not supporting her bill but agreed to turn the bill into a motion to enable a committee discussion on the subject.
Labor and Welfare Minister Kahlon thanked Solodkin for agreeing to turn the bill into a motion.
The motion passed 25-0 and was sent to the Welfare Committee.
MK Whbee (Kadima) explained his amendment would allow MK participation in the Ministerial Committee on Legislation when an MK's bill is being discussed. He slammed the government for having 40 ministers and deputy ministers. He blasted the government for opposing another common sense bill. He stressed it is important that the MK sponsoring the legislation be there to explain his bill to the ministers who need to make a decision on it. He said a lot of misunderstandings would be avoided if the MK were there in the room. He thanked his co-sponsor MK Levin (Likud) for trying to convince the government to think otherwise. He said allowing the MK to explain his bill is elementary. He said this bill will help the coalition and the opposition. He noted that his bill doesn't ask that the MK attend the voting or ask for a protocol of what was said after the MK left the room. He slammed Justice Minister Neeman, who is the chairman of the ministerial committee, for not showing up to explain his views.
Deputy Prime Minister Ya'alon (Likud) expressed government opposition to the bill on the grounds that the executive branch of government doesn't need to include the legislative branch in its decisions. He said that as it is the committee meetings are too long and this would only make them longer.
MK Whbee responded that allowing an MK three times a year to explain a bill that is important to them will not make the sessions longer. He said the government's decision to oppose this bill is yet another reason why this is a bad government that must be replaced.
The bill was defeated 21-35 with one MK abstaining.
Opposition Leader Livni explained MK Yoel Hasson's bill would require every Israeli citizen to serve in the army or serve their country in some sort of civil service. She said it is not fair that some sectors of Israelis serve and sacrifice while others do not. She said there is no equality in Israel and blamed the ultra-orthodox leaders for keeping their sector out of the army. She said it is not fair that the ultra-orthodox take advantage of the entire country. She said this bill will create a real unity. She told the ultra-orthodox that she will force them to serve their country. She said this deserting of the army is ripping the country apart and called on the rabbis to support her bill. She said Israel can no longer pray for a miracle to save us from our enemies; it needs soldiers. She said all citizens must serve and work, and that is the only just way. She said that there will be no more free meals.
Science and Technology Minister Hershkowitz (J.H.) reminded Opposition Leader Livni that is was the Kadima government that extended the Tal Law for five years in 2007 and she voted for it. He expressed government opposition to the bill on the grounds that a similar bill written by the government will be brought up for a vote in a few weeks. He said the government bill is a better version of MK Hasson's bill and the government doesn't see a reason to support this version. He said that there are many Arabs and ultra-orthodox Jews who serve in civil service and their numbers are growing every year. He went on to say this bill isn't the Tal Law or a replacement for it. He confessed that he believes that every citizen must serve the country but disagreed that this bill was the way to accomplish it. He gave a story of his grandfather who was turned away from army service decades ago because he was ultra-orthodox. He went on to say that he feels that it is mandatory to serve in the army as a Jew, but real solutions need to be proposed, not problematic bills full of holes. He said any change must be gradual and done smartly. He said the Supreme Court wants to expedite the move. He said that even he feels that the 1,800 ultra-orthodox Jews in civil service isn't high enough but that it is better than nothing. He said these are heavy issues, and politics must be taken out of the equation. He stated the government is working on an alternative to the Tal Law based on views from all coalition partners.
MK Yoel Hasson (Kadima) said that Livni spoke on his behalf and on behalf of all of Kadima. He attacked MK Gafni and told him that he has no clue what the ultra-orthodox youth want. Hasson said that he isn't anti-ultra-orthodox but he is anti watching them not serve in the army and not enter the work force. He asked why ultra-orthodox Jews in New York learn and work but in Bnei Brak they only learn. He said that he supports allowing a minority to learn in Yeshiva, just like a minority is allowed to be exempted to pursue athletic and sport achievements. He said that he believes in cooperation, but sometimes the ultra-orthodox only understand power and strength. He said that Yisrael Beitenu should support the bill during the roll call.
The bill was defeated 27-55.
MK Shai (Kadima) explained his amendment would force the performance of civil service or national service for those who don't serve regular service. He read passages from the Torah which call on Jews to serve in the army. He called on the ultra-orthodox to respect those passages and serve the country. He said that the burden of service should apply to everybody. He praised the Supreme Court decision to let the Tal Law expire on August 1, 2012. He called on the Knesset to approve his bill and stop the ultra-orthodox who he said are using the country like an ATM machine. He charged that the ultra-orthodox take from the country but never give back. He said those who want to receive must learn to give. He said Jewish history is full of religious Jews who gave their lives in wars to preserve the Jewish country of Israel. He said his bill would apply to all citizens, Jews and Arabs, and the army would choose who they want for the military and who would go to national or civil service. He said in a few decades only 40% of youth will serve in the army. He called those who will go to the army at that point suckers compared to those who won't. He said that changing the demographics in the country is impossible but something must be done to create equality. He closed with a poem by Bialik.
Minister Begin (Likud) thanked MK Shai for a beautiful speech and agreed that this is an important issue. He said the government is considering alternatives to the Tal Law following the Supreme Court decision not to allow its extension. He said the country does not have the ability to force service on such a large sector of the population and any solution must be consensual. He said that today the army isn't equipped to draft the great numbers of ultra-orthodox Jews from any perspective. He said alternatives will be discussed and the government will find a way to encourage the ultra-orthodox and Arabs to serve in civil service. He called on the Knesset to oppose the bill. He called on public leaders to be careful of what they say in public. He said that he is not convinced that every sector in society should be treated the same, and time will tell how this issue is resolved.
This was the Knesset Jeremy English translation protocol of the Knesset's February 22, 2012, session.
There would be little need to force Hareidi into Tzahal if a conserted effort was made to respect Halacha. I'm not saying that everyone should observe, just that the rights of those who want to be respected. For example, a few months ago some soldiers left a ceramony rather than listen to a woman sing (following Halacha) they were punished and in review it was said that as long as it was entertainment and with permission Religious soldiers may leave. To cover themselves command found some rabbis that agreed. Does anyone really think Hareidi individuals would accept this "heter". Things like this (as well as putting women into Heseder units) and the attitude behind it are reason for the "Ultra Orthodox" refusing millitary service fix it and much of the problem would disappear.
