The Elk Run Condominium's are located at the bottom of Copper Mountain's East Village and are only 200 yards from the SuperBee Chairlift, and on the edge of the 8th and 9th fairways of the Copper Creek Championship Golf Course. This one bedroom, two bathroom condo comes fully equipped with an open kitchen that has granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, a dining area with room for four, and a cozy living area with a gas fireplace and flat screen TV. When you are ready to lay down at the end of a long day step into the comfortable master bedroom with a king sized bed, a large en suite bathroom with tub and shower, and windows with views you just can't beat. Sleep an additional two persons with the double size murphy bed in the living area. The second bathroom off the hallway has a stand up shower, making it easy for the whole group to get ready.
The ladies who ran check in were marvelous! Stacey and Kelsey were great.
My wife accidentally locked herself out of the condo while I was out skiing. Your team was very prompt in sending someone to assist her.
The condo was beautiful and conveniently located. We had a great time!
Excellent! The parking space (garage) is to small to park a SUV inside the property!
Kay was very friendly and knowledgeable. I greatly appreciated her flexibility and willingness to work with me on my arrival and departure times.
The property was perfect for my family of four. The Murphy bed is great for the kids, the master bedroom is spacious and clean. Very easy to walk out the lift and ski back.

Jaguar's stunning two-door sportscar, the F-Type receives a substantial refresh for the 2021 model year that sees new styling tweaks, better interior materials, and most important of all, enhanced handling prowess.
For this 2021 update, designers have opted to graft on a completely new face, taking cues from Jaguar's latest design. With that, it gets a more dramatic form thanks to super-slim "pixel" LED headlights with the trademark "J" calligraphy DRLs, sequential turn signals, a new front bumper, and enlarged grille. Over the back, it also gets new rear lamps with a subtle monogram and pinstripe detailing underneath.
Inside, the F-Type now benefits from a much more modern interior. In front of the driver is a re-configurable 12.3-inch instrument cluster and at the center is the Touch Pro infotainment system that incorporates both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Naturally, for all its high-tech touches, it still keeps traditional materials such as Windsor Leather and satin-finished chrome.
In terms of pace, the 2021 keeps a wide-range of engine options starting with a 300-horsepower 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine, moving up to a 450-horsepower V8, and finally to a 575-horsepower version in the F-Type R. All engines feature an active exhaust system in which drivers can switch from a quiet, more subtle engine note to something more dramatic with just a press of a button. Only the V8 versions though benefit from a re-tuned gearbox.
Handling-wise, the F-Type gets a comprehensively updated chassis with new adaptive dampers, springs, anti-roll bars, and stiffer rear knuckles and ball joints for enhanced agility and responsiveness. All models also get wider tires with sizes starting at 20 inches.
Jaguar has yet to announce when the new F-Type will start production, so for now, you can still opt for the current F-Type with Philippine prices starting at P 6.190-million and going up to P 15.590-million for the full-blooded F-Type SVR.

Windows 8.1, An Analysis Of Included And Removed Features
Editorial Staff | Software
Code named Windows Blue has now officially been declared as Windows 8.1 by Microsoft. It is almost ready and under testing phase right now before its final release. Windows 8.1 Preview is officially available for consumers to download and test it to make it sure that final release is bugs free. Currently, it is not possible to declare exact date of release of the finalized form of Windows 8.1 but it is expected in late 2013.
Microsoft has learnt from its past not so good experience regarding Windows 8 and is now focusing more on fulfilling demands of its operating system users. Company is striving to include many new features to the OS to make it the most demanded operating system in the world next to Windows XP and Windows 7. The new features which are now officially the part of Windows 8.1 and few of the Windows 8 features which are now excluded from Windows 8.1 has been discussed below.
Included New Features:
1- Windows 8.1 is designed to support certain new technologies. These include NFC Printing, Wi-Fi Direct Printing, 3D Printing, device encryption for all editions of Windows 8, auto triggered VPN, tethering of mobile broadband, Miracast and DirectX 11.2.
2- Microsoft claims that its new OS can fit on almost any screen, from 7 inch tablet to 27 inch or bigger computer screen. This is a good feature and equally beneficial for any kind of user having different size machine. To fulfill the requirements of fitting OS properly on screen, Microsoft has brought certain new changes especially to Modern UI and overall to whole Windows 8.1 operating system .
3- The most demanded Start button has now returned to action. Microsoft has included a start button on taskbar just like it is on Windows 7 and previous versions of Windows but with a new design. Windows can now also boot directly to desktop screen bypassing the Metro start screen. The context menu of start button allows shutting down, hibernating or restarting the computer directly.
4- Start screen is the same tiled one like Windows 8 but it has got certain improvements and new features. Start screen can be customized with far more colours on Windows 8.1. Tiles can be swiped horizontally on screen with the animation of backgrounds. Custom wallpapers or even desktop background can be used for the start screen. But in that case, background wallpaper remains static and does not animate with scrolling tiles. Start screen tiles can be locked in one place to prevent them from accidental shifting. Live tiles can now be replaced with "All Apps" view.
5- Lock screen can turn into a photo gallery picking random pictures to display automatically. It is possible to unlock the camera or answer Skype call directly without fiddling with password to unlock and get inside the user account.
6- Two biggest interface changes have been brought to Windows 8.1 which include new smart search technology and the way OS handles multiple modern apps windows on screen. Search pane has been redesigned making it possible to search in full screen mode or inside a small pane. Integrated Bing is now able to display search results combining the search results from the files stored on PC and files stored on Skydrive and from around the web.
7- New snap view makes it possible to open multiple Windows store applications and resize them into different sizes on screen in case of multitasking. If someone is using a PC with multiple screens, he can start and put the windows of multiple applications side by side on all of them as long as the available space on screens is not fully occupied by the running applications.
8- "Computer" button which we are used to see in Windows 8 and previous versions of Windows is now renamed as "This PC" in Windows 8.1 along with the integration of SkyDrive inside the File Explorer. SkyDrive which is installed in new OS as the backup storage and extending internal storage is able to synchronize files automatically.
9- The trigger which shows the charms bar when you bring the mouse pointer to the top right corner and another one at top left corner of screen which shows thumbnails of the next applications running in the background can now be turned off.
10- Camera app designed for tablets and notebooks has a new feature included in it which is known as Photosynth Panoramas. Tap it and start moving your tablet around. Application will stitch the panoramic images together into a scene and can cover up to 360 degrees.
11- Integrated Xbox is much improved and so is the Mail. There are new applications for food and fitness and a modern version of office is also on its way to meet Windows 8.1. Many other pre integrated applications have also gone through the process of over hauling. The uninstall command allows Windows store applications to get uninstalled from multiple linked computers.
12- Windows 8.1 carries Internet Explorer 11 which is engineered for speed and compatibility with websites. In comparison between Internet Explorer 10 and Internet Explorer 11, the newer one proves to be an improved and websites friendly web browser. One can open up to 100 tabs at once without much slowing down the computer. A second or third copy of web browser can also be opened and inside each of them, further 100 tabs can be opened.
Removed Features:
1- Windows Experience Index which is the integral part of Windows Vista and onward releases of Windows has been deliberately removed from Windows 8.1. WEI gives a general idea about the performance capability of hardware installed inside the computer but Microsoft might considered it as useless feature and therefore, has thrown it out of latest OS.
2- Windows 8 introduced a sleek backup and restore solution as "File History". It also included "Windows 7 File Recovery tools" imported from Windows 7. In Windows 8.1, those have been deprecated. However, overhauled File History tools still allow users to import backup images created with Windows 7.
3- The Messaging app which allowed users to chat on Windows Live Messenger and Facebook is no longer available. Microsoft has merged messaging facility into Skype. Microsoft also claims that a complete Facebook application is on its way to join Windows Store. Moreover, the calendar app no longer connects to Google Calendar. Instead, it connects to Outlook.com and Microsoft Exchange.

Beyond the brain: disrupted in schizophrenia 1 regulates pancreatic β-cell function via glycogen synthase kinase-3β.

FASEB J 2016 Feb; 30(2):983-93.
Individuals with schizophrenia and their first-degree relatives have higher rates of type 2 diabetes (T2D) than the general population (18-30 vs. 1.2-6.3%), independent of body mass index and antipsychotic medication, suggesting shared genetic components may contribute to both diseases. The cause of this association remains unknown. Mutations in disrupted in schizophrenia 1 (DISC1) increase the risk of developing psychiatric disorders [logarithm (base 10) of odds = 7.1]. Here, we identified DISC1 as a major player controlling pancreatic β-cell proliferation and insulin secretion via regulation of glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK3β). DISC1 expression was enriched in developing mouse and human pancreas and adult β- and ductal cells. Loss of DISC1 function, through siRNA-mediated depletion or expression of a dominant-negative truncation that models the chromosomal translocation of human DISC1 in schizophrenia, resulted in decreased β-cell proliferation (3 vs. 1%; P < 0.01), increased apoptosis (0.1 vs. 0.6%; P < 0.01), and glucose intolerance in transgenic mice. Insulin secretion was reduced (0.5 vs. 0.1 ng/ml; P < 0.05), and critical β-cell transcription factors Pdx1 and Nkx6.1 were significantly decreased. Impaired DISC1 allowed inappropriate activation of GSK3β in β cells, and antagonizing GSK3β (SB216763; IC50 = 34.3 nM) rescued the β-cell defects. These results uncover an unexpected role for DISC1 in normal β-cell physiology and suggest that DISC1 dysregulation contributes to T2D independently of its importance for cognition.-Jurczyk, A., Nowosielska, A., Przewozniak, N., Aryee, K.-E., DiIorio, P., Blodgett, D., Yang, C., Campbell-Thompson, M., Atkinson, M., Shultz, L., Rittenhouse, A., Harlan, D., Greiner, D., Bortell, R.

Q: Having trouble finding solution to a DE $$y^{(4)} - \lambda y = 0, y'(0)=0, y'''(0)=0, y(\pi)=0, y''(\pi)=0$$
let $\lambda = a^4$
my solution: $$r^4-a^4=0 \implies r=\pm a \\ y = c_1e^{ax}+c_2e^{-ax}$$
but my book says the solution is $y=c_1cos(ax)+c_2sin(ax)+c_3cosh(ax)+c_4sinh(ax)$.
What am I doing wrong?

A: I take it that $\lambda$ is positive. Beside the solutions $r=\pm a$, we have the solutions $r=\pm ia$.
You have essentially taken care of the $\cosh ax$ and $\sinh ax$ part in another way. But the complex roots have not been taken care of. They yield solutions $e^{iax}$ and $e^{-iax}$, which can be written in terms of sines and cosines.

A: The equation
$$
r^4 - a^4 = 0
$$
has 4 solutions, not 2:
$$
r_{1,2} = \pm a \\
r_{3,4} = \pm ai
$$
$(1)$  and $(2)$ give
$$
y_1 = c_1 e^{ax} + c_2 e^{-ax}
$$
WLOG we can take
$$
c_1 \equiv \frac{c_1 + c_2}2 \\
c_2 \equiv \frac {c_1 - c_2}2
$$
Then solution becomes
$$
y_1 = \frac {c_1 + c_2}2 e^{ax} + \frac {c_1 - c_2}2 e^{-ax} = c_1\frac {e^{ax} + e^{-ax}}2 + c_1\frac {e^{ax} - e^{-ax}}2 = c_1 \cosh ax + c_2 \sinh ax
$$
Analogously for $(3)$ and $(4)$
$$
y_2 = c_3 e^{axi} + c_4 e^{-axi}
$$
WLOG we can take
$$
c_3 \equiv \frac {c_3 - ic_4}2 \\
c_4 \equiv \frac {c_3 + ic_4}2
$$
so solution becomes
$$
y_2 = \frac {c_3 - ic_4}2 e^{axi} + \frac {c_3 + ic_4}2 e^{-axi} = c_3 \frac {e^{axi} + e^{-axi}}2 - c_4 i\frac {e^{axi} - e^{-axi}}2 = \\
= c_3 \frac {e^{axi} + e^{-axi}}2 + c_4 \frac {e^{axi} - e^{-axi}}{2i} = c_3 \cos ax + c_4 \sin ax
$$
so final solution is
$$
y = c_1 \cosh ax + c_2 \sinh ax + c_3 \cos ax + c_4 \sin ax
$$

A: the solution is $2Ccos x[4]√(λ)+2C((cosπ[4]√(λ))/(e^{π[4]√(λ)}e^{x[4]√(λ)}+(1/(e^{π[4]√(λ)}))e^{x[4]√(λ)}))+2C(cosπ[4]√(λ))((e^{x[4]√(λ)})/(e^{π[4]√(λ)}+(1/(e^{π[4]√(λ)}))))$. A pair operations leads to the solution of the book.

4x10 Monstrous+Transcript
Satomi's pack are running from the assassins who are shooting at them with arrows. Kira arrives and helps Satomi's pack escape by blocking the arrows and taking them all somewhere else where she thinks is safe, so she can meet up with Scott to come up with a better plan.
As Scott is getting ready to go out the door to meet with Kira, he throws a helmet to Liam, telling him briefly what's happening. Liam remains where he's standing and questions Scott about the assassins whether they're different than the ones who tried to light them on fire. Scott sees that Liam is uncomfortable with coming to help, so he offers to drive him home instead. Liam declares that he isn't like Scott, or the rest of his pack, "I don't mean I'm not strong, or I'll never learn to be in control. I mean everything else, you and your friends try and protect everyone. Have you been doing this the whole time? I mean, how are you all still alive?" he says. Scott replies, "Not all of us are," and pushes the offer to take him home.
Meanwhile, Stiles is in the hospital with a concussion from when Brunski punched him for trying to help Lydia block out the sounds of the tape while they were trapped in Eichen House. He tries to leave, insisting that he is fine, but Melissa makes him stay until he gets a CT scan, "Even if I let you go, what would you do?" Giving in, Stiles drops himself back down on the bed and requests that Melissa gets him a tape player. When Melissa leaves the room, he takes out a tape from his pocket labeled Lorraine Martin.
Back at the sheriff station, Sheriff Stilinski exits his office and right away Lydia asks "What did she say?" The sheriff replies, "Hard to tell, there were words, but I'm not sure if they were actual sentences." Lydia takes that to mean nothing. The sheriff suggest that they need a psychologist, or a medium, and picks up the phone.
Lydia questions whether Meredith is competent enough to even be charged with something, and the sheriff answers, "If Meredith is the Benefactor then that means she was competent enough to trick Kate into opening the Hale vault, competent enough to trick Brunski into helping her, competent enough to create a hitlist and payout money for its completion. This girl is practically a criminal mastermind." Lydia and the sheriff decide that they don't only need to stop the dead pool, and that they also need to stop the money.
Scott and Kira find each other in what looks to be an office. They make out for a moment before Scott breaks the kiss to ask about Kira's mother. Kira tells him that she is okay, and healing. When Scott asks if Kira is okay, she replies with, "Right now, very." They kiss once more before Scott asks if they found a member of Satomi's pack, and Kira tells him that she found all of them and then shows him. Satomi says that she knows who Scott McCall is. One of the girls asks if they are safe there, and Scott looks around the room and examines how many there are. "We're going to need help, a lot of help," he says.
Chris Argent throws a man down through a door in what looks like a warehouse as he walks in holding a gun, ready to fire it. A man comes up behind him, and Argent knocks him out with his elbow. He walks through the aisles of plants and comes to a yellow wolfsbane plant.
Back at the sheriff station, Sheriff Stilinski is still trying to get something out of Meredith. "I thought I told you to go home," the sheriff says to Lydia. She replies, "And I thought I told you, I wasn't going anywhere. Did they get anything out of her?" "Should have gone with the medium," Stilinski says. Deputy Parrish reports to Stilinski about checking everything in Brunski's office and informs him that they found nothing. He also asks Lydia about not going home yet. Lydia tries to convince the sheriff to let her speak to Meredith.
Stiles, still in the hospital, is waiting to get his CT scan. Melissa knocks on the door, and Stiles expects to get the tape player he asked for earlier, but instead Malia walks in, and Melissa shuts the door and leaves the two alone with some privacy. Malia tells Stiles that she heard that he almost got killed, and Stiles say the same to her. She asks if he is okay, and Stiles says that Brunski punched him in the face, and that he's the serial killer. "What about you?" he asks Malia. She informs him that they were almost set on fire, but that everyone is basically okay.
When Stiles asks if she is okay, she says that she is fine. Malia insists that she should go, but when she tries to leave, the door is locked. Stiles tries to get someone's attention. "I can break it," Malia says, and Stiles suggests that she doesn't, seeing how he already owes the hospital enough money. Both of them are confused as to why Melissa would lock the door, and Stiles defends her by saying, "Maybe she didn't mean to . . . maybe she wasn't thinking it through. People sometimes do things without thinking them through." Malia says that she's stupid. Stiles continues, speaking more about himself, "No, even smart people can do stupid things because they think that it's the right thing, and I don't think that we should hold it against her for the rest of her life. Especially because she tried apologizing, hundreds of times, through texts and voicemails." Malia catches onto what he's trying to say and asks if she's going to keep begging. Stiles says that she might. Malia tells him that she doesn't have much practice with forgiveness and that she's picking up some things fast but others, not so much. Stiles says, "Like math." And she replies, "I hate math." Stiles asks if she hates him, and Malia says, "I like you, Stiles. I like you a lot." Stiles says he can work with that and they kiss, and suddenly the door opens.
Argent is in a building with a small vault, in which he carefully places the yellow wolfsbane. He notices footsteps going into another room. He grabs his gun, aiming it toward the room, when something shoots at him knocking his gun out of his hands. Pulling out his handgun, he aims, and Brett is suddenly right there, but Scott stops Brett from attacking, informing him that this is Chris's place.
"Scott, if you're bringing guests, you could have called," Argent says, and Scott tells him that there was no where else to bring him. Satomi steps up and says that she knows this man. He might not remember her, but they have met before. Scott says that he trusts them, so they should too and she questions if he is like the others. Argent asks, "What others?" Kira tells them that there was an entire team after them last night, and that they used crossbows. She hands him one of the arrows, and Scott assumes that they are hunters, but Argent tells him that they aren't hunters if they're killing for profit.
One of the Werewolf asks if the assassins can find them, and Argent tells him that they may already know that they are here and are possible waiting for dark. Kira realizes that they aren't safe, but Satomi says that they aren't safe anywhere and have been running for days. Everywhere they turn, there is someone new trying to kill them. "They're coming Scott, and they're coming for you, too. You're still number one on the dead pool," Chris says. Scott knows, and he also knows that if Lydia has more time she can get the answer from Meredith.
Stiles and Malia are listening to the tape that Scott found. It's a recording of Brunski talking to Lorraine Martin. Stiles turns up the volume, and Lorraine, on the tape, says that she knows that he is making a tape, just like he taped the others. Stiles realizes that Lorraine wasn't killed in Eichen House like they thought.
Lydia, at the sheriff station, is questioning Meredith and tells her she knows how it all happened. She says that Meredith used Brunski because she knew he'd kill people and would do it again. "He used my grandmother's code for the dead pool, he put it online, he took the money from the Hale vault, then turned the barer bonds into cash. He made the payments." Meredith says she wanted to help, and Lydia asks if thats why she is there. Meredith says she will only talk to Peter Hale.
Stiles and Malia are still listening to the tape. Malia asks Stiles to turn up the tape and listen again. They figure that Lorraine went back to the lake house to listen to the record player. Lorraine is a banshee, but only once. She spent decades trying to predict something else. "What if all those years ago Lorraine predicted it, she knew that there was something in the study that could stop it?" They talk some more, and Stiles says that they are going to the lake house and grabs his keys.
Argent is setting up sensors throughout the warehouse they are in, while everyone else waits for the assassins to show up. Kira is hoping that it's just a false alarm. Scott tells everyone that Lydia is still talking to Meredith and Stiles is headed to the lake house. Brett says, "What if it doesn't end until we're all dead?" Derek replies that they will send a message. "It doesn't matter if they're a professional assassins, hunters, or an amateur who just picked up a gun. Anyone who thinks they can hunt and kill us for money is gonna be put on another list. Our list. They get to be put on our dead pool."
At the sheriff station, Peter is looking at Meredith and he doubts that she is the one who stole his money. Peter goes in and talks to her. The first thing he asks is where his money is, or what's left of it. Meredith reaches up her hand and touches Peter's face. He quickly grabs her arm, and Parrish demands that he lets her go. "Why did you do that?" Peter asks, and Meredith notes that all of his burns are gone. Lydia realizes that they have met before.
Back with the werewolves, Argent tells Satomi that he does remember her. She says that he wasn't protecting werewolves back then, he was hunting them. "Three things cannot long be hidden, the sun, the moon, and the truth," Argent states and asks what it means to her. Satomi says that to her it means that her kind are violent creatures who eventually will not be able to control their violent impulses. The sensor goes off and Argent announces they they are coming.
At the sheriffs station, Meredith tells Peter that it has to be kept secret. Peter is confused because they have never met before. Meredith expects him to remember, but he doesn't. Peter stands up, pushing the table out of the way, and grabs her by the neck to do a mind meld.
A quick scene of guns firing at the building where Satomi's pack is. The supernaturals are all taking cover while the others are firing back at the assassins.
Again, at the sheriff station, Lydia tells the Sheriff and Deputy Parrish that they can't break the bond or it will kill both of them. None of them know what to do. Peter is looking into Meredith's mind and seeing what she remembers. Meredith starts whispering things, which Lydia can understand perfectly. Meredith is explaining how she and Peter were in the same hospital after the fire. Meredith could hear Peter's thoughts. Everything in Peter's mind went right to Meredith. It was like Peter was right over her bed talking to her about revenge. Peter was thinking about taking out every supernatural in Beacon Hills and how he would hire people to kill them all. The whole idea for the dead pool was from Peter's subconscious, and he doesn't even remember it.
Stiles and Malia are sitting in the lake house listening to the record player, but when they stop it, Malia can still hear it. They realize it's not the record player that is still spinning. Stiles looks around and sees a wire coming out from the wall. He pulls it, tearing at the wall. He and Malia start ripping out pieces of the wall to reveal an old computer. Stiles confirms that it is the computer running the deadpool.
The assassins are still shooting at the supernaturals and their defenders.
Sheriff Stilinski is ready to kill Peter, but Lydia says that this is what Meredith wants. There are three people still on the deadpool in that room. Peter says that they don't want to kill each other. Sheriff Stilinski threatens to kill him, and Peter says that it better be a good shot because he doesn't go down easy. The Sheriff threatens Peter again, but Peter asks how he will explain it all to the judge. "Telepathic girl overhears thoughts of a comatose Werewolf and decides to enact his plans for retribution," Peter mocks. Lydia says that they will have to let him go, and the Sheriff drops his gun.
Malia goes to smash the deadpool, but Stiles stops her and explains how it's working and says they need a prompt or command. Malia says, "What about a key?" Stiles video calls Lydia and explains to her the situation. Lydia asks to see the floor again, and when Stiles shows her, she notices that the wine stain is gone, but wine doesn't just come out. Lydia thinks out loud and says that the wine isn't wine. Stiles goes downstairs to find the bottle. He shakes it and discovers there is something inside. He asks for a wine opener, but Malia just smashes it on the ground, and they find a key hidden inside. They put it in the key slot in the dead pool, and turn it, turning it off.
While Scott is fighting a man, nearly killing him, he realizes that his dark side is taking over. He stops to think, and someone's phone goes off. All of their phones go off, and the assassins start to back out. Scott takes the man's phone from his pocket and shows him the message that reads "All contracts terminated." All of the supernaturals and the defenders come out from where they were and look around. Kira asks if it's really over, and Scott nods.
Lydia and Meredith are talking at the sheriff station, and Lydia asks why she put her own name on a hit list. Meredith said that she had to because she heard Lydia scream in the tunnels at Oak Creek. That's how she knew it was the right time to start over with Peter. "He's the alpha. He's always been the alpha. He'll make it right," Meredith says. Meredith says that too many people have died because of them; they are the monsters, even banshees. "Not all monsters do monstrous things," Lydia replies. "Like who?" Meredith asks. "Like Scott." Meredith looks at Lydia and touches her cheek and says, "Like you." She takes her hand away and says, "Oh god, what have I done?" in realization.
Peter Hale and Kate Argent are in the sewer. Kate notes that Peter looks nervous. Peter states that he isn't nervous, just rattled, and he doesn't like being rattled. Kate reminds him that everything is going exactly how he wanted. Maybe every game piece didn't move exactly how he wanted, but everything still moved into place. Kate worries that Peter wants to bail on the plan. Peter says "Of course not. Not when I'm this close. Not when I'm this close to killing Scott McCall."

All husbands and spouses have a problem with commitment issues. However a lot of people insist on trusting.
I'd like to fully grasp this out of the way: There are no best marriages
in an impossible marital ideal. do not place wish into the unattainable aim of uninterrupted marital bliss. You will only set yourself upwards for duplicated disappointment. People who reside productive and strenuous lives in a fallen industry become sure to go through the stresses and frustrations that test marriages. Honestly, i'm questionable of anybody who says a trouble-free marriage. We certainly don't want to be like people which never argues together with his partner simply because they never ever talk. In which there is absolutely no movement, there's absolutely no rubbing.
Some marriages supply the look of equilibrium because one companion bends to every impulse of this some other. These are typically impaired marriages. do not end up being tricked by them. I recall a newly married people proudly announcing that she got a significantly better matrimony than many others who had been hitched much longer. This was possible for the lady to express because the lady wedding hadn't withstood the unavoidable assessments period. Fortunately, discover marriages which have withstood the studies and are generally important and mature instances for young people. The amount of these types of marriages, however, was decreasing.
You'll find quite a few marriages in our forums being dangling together by really slim posts. When marriages are just like this, it will always be because significant habits of overlook. Generate no mistake: a great relationship takes jobs! It requires willpower and give up on both side.
Most husbands and wives usually do not take pleasure in the important company they really miss as they are unwilling to get the time and effort required for obtaining it. Neglect, complacency, presumptions, getting both for granted, negativity, reduced good-will—these would be the a lot https://www.datingranking.net/pl/huggle-recenzja/ more simple dangers that destroy marriages.
One more reason some marriages don't last may be the refusal to seek help. Individuals who find themselves in a long or often recurring "marital rut" frequently require the services of a wise therapist to successfully navigate a challenging season. Wives are most happy to accept advice than husbands. The ever-so-tender male ego enjoys held a lot of lovers in marital distress.
do not end up like the fool portrayed inside the OT guide of Proverbs
Keep in mind, "Two much better off than one, simply because they could work better. If an individual ones drops all the way down, additional will help him up…Two people can fight a strike that defeats one person by yourself. A rope consists of three cables is difficult to break" (Ecclesiastes 4:9,12).
The "third cable" of an important and lasting relationship are goodness. As husbands and wives grow her relationship with goodness individually, they generate strong contributions with their marriages. We had been from our very own founder to live in a personal commitment with your. He has graciously launched ways for this as possible (discover: John 3:16,17; 14:6 ). Envision a triangle with husband and wife on decreased corners and God towards the top. The closer you go toward goodness, the closer your push toward each other.
If your wedding is within dilemma and your lover was reluctant to identify it, you can search assist for your self. Query Jesus to make use of the marital issues to improve your character and improve their connection with him (discover: James 1:2-5).
After a lot more than twenty-five several years of relationship and raising four energetic children, my family and I have discovered numerous sessions about wedding. The trail has not yet for ages been easy but we've generated some basic responsibilities which have helped all of us. Although I'm not available to counsel every difficult matrimony, i will be pleased to endorse a list of the basic obligations that have assisted united states. You have access to this checklist at:

In 2011, Wisconsin governor Scott Walker's chances of staying in office looked bleak. Angry protesters—furious about his collective bargaining proposal—swarmed Madison, camped in the capitol, and attempted to block the passage of the governor's reform legislation. Teachers unions accused him of sabotaging education. His approval numbers fell to the basement, and with the national media's descent on Wisconsin, liberals denounced "Dead Man Walker." He found himself fighting for his reforms, fielding death threats, and facing an unprecedented recall election.
But then something happened. Walker's policies began to work. His constituents realized they were better off with his leadership, and in June 2012, he became the first governor in American history to survive a recall attempt, winning with a higher share of the vote than he had for his original election.
In Unintimidated, Governor Walker tells the story of his fight to save Wisconsin from a $3.6 billion budget deficit while simultaneously improving the state's schools and public infrastructure. He describes how he stood for his convictions against enormous political pressure and personal attacks. He explains how he knew his reforms would work, based on his experience as a local official.
• Change the polls, not your principles.
• Don't accept the false choices presented to you.
• You can reform entitlements and survive.
• Austerity is not the answer.
Walker is living proof that conservatives need not move to the center to win. He argues that Republicans must offer Americans big, bold, positive solutions for our nation's challenges—and have the courage to implement them. Walker has shown that even President Obama will back down when faced with reforms promoted with common sense and courage.
Editor's note: ACU, through an agreement with the publisher, has provided its listeners this excerpt of Gov. Scott Walker's new book, Unintimidated: A Governor's Story and a Nation's Challenge, which he wrote with Marc Thiessen. This lengthy excerpt is offered through an agreement with Sentinel, an imprint of Penguin Random House. Copyright © Scott Walker and Marc Thiessen, 2013.

Rep. Deutsch of Florida and Rep. Gene Green introduce the Pension Protection Act of 2001
Rep. Peter Deutsch was joined by Rep. Gene Green in introducing the Pension Protection Act of 2001 today, legislation which restricts the employee 401 (k) contribution to no more than ten percent in company stock. Employer matches would be unaffected by this restriction. Additionally, the initiative includes a provision that allows for the divestiture of employee stock three years after acquisition.
After the financial community watched the collapse of Enron Corporation, Enron employees witnessed the destruction of their retirement security.
According to Securities and Exchange Commission filings, Enron employees had a total of 62 percent of 401(k) assets invested in company stock at the beginning of the year. Attorneys for Enron employees estimate that workers have lost more than $1 billion of their retirement funds.
"The current financial situation with Enron is an example of the risks that are involved when a company invests most of the employees 401(k) plan in it's own stock," Green said. "This was an adequate system until that stock price declined to pennies on the dollar. Many of it's employees lost thousands of dollars due to restrictions on diversifying their 401(k) plans.
"This legislation is based on the proven principle
that broad diversification is the most successful approach to long term retirement investing. Employees should not be forced to gamble with their retirement security."
"This bill is a first step to revise the way 401(k) plans are set up in an effort to avoid another retirement catastrophe as it happened with Enron. Diversity is the key to a sound financial future and I look forward to working with employers to safeguard their employees investments," Green concluded.
"The employees at Enron have suffered devastating losses to their retirement savings, Deutsch continued. "The Federal Government must ensure that the pensions of hard working Americans at other companies do not suffer the same fate."
Rep. Deutsch introduced the measure today and has already received interest from some of his colleagues who would like to join as a co-sponsor of this initiative. Rep. Frost of Texas, Rep. Barbara Lee of California, and Rep. Lipinski of Michigan join Rep. Green as an original co-sponsor of this legislation.

Greta Thunberg's climate crusade prompts backlash from "severely normal" citizens
Posted by Ezra Levant on October 17, 2019
You must be signed in to watch premium episodes.
Severely normal people are fighting back against Extinction Rebellion and Greta Thunberg's kooky campaign, and it's playing out live on social media.
Today's left-wing protests in the wealthy west are filled with rich kids with no serious responsibilities, maybe taking meaningless university courses like "vegetarian studies."
Before we get into tonight's videos and stories, let me read you something I found in the British medical journal The Lancet.
Have you heard of the dancing plagues? The Lancet describes them as bouts of "unstoppable, and sometimes fatal" epidemics where thousands of men, women and children would dance "in agony for days or weeks, screaming of terrible visions and imploring priests and monks to save their souls."
These epidemics occurred throughout the Middle Ages and in multiple countries.
"The dancing plagues are little remembered today, in part because they seem so unbelievable. But [some incidents] might be apocryphal, there is no question that the 1374 and 1518 epidemics occurred. Dozens of reliable chronicles from several towns and cities describe the events of 1374."
Remember, The Lancet is a medical journal. I read the whole article — it really is amazing, and the authors were trying to explain this phenomenon. Theories range from eating hallucinogenic food, or some other sort of poisoning. But in the end, they agreed that the plagues had a psychological explanation and a psychological cure.
Back to Greta, and the Extinction Rebellion crews.
The dancing plagues ended because they ended. These folks whipped themselves up into a frenzy, but they finally purged the plague from their minds and bodies by following through on their spiritual belief system. If they believed evil river spirits made them crazy, their solution was to pray to purge the evil river spirits.
That's what The Lancet, says, anyway.
But what about Greta Thunberg's mania? You heard Greta — the whole world is collapsing, we're going to be extinguished.
What's the solution? There's no way to exorcise the demon, is there? They have no solutions.
Normal people don't believe in the mania react in a severely normal way when a protester blocks bridges, or jumps on passenger trains. They just want to go to work, not be a part of social media fundraiser video they're filming.
Greta Thunberg and the Extinction Rebellion demonstrators aren't the normal ones, here. You are.
Let the world now by signing our NEW petition at HowDareYou.ca:
Tell Greta to stop meddling in Canada's election, and trying to destroy our energy industry.
NEXT: Manny Montenegrino joins me to talk about the election.
FINALLY: Your messages to me!

Well said, Jill and John Ward. The Ozone Scam was proven to be a Lie in the early 80's. When both NASA and The NRC searched for "The Hole" in Cape Parry, NWT. Yet, the same old lies continue to surface…"
The "hole" was, and is (it's still there, though shrinking now), in the antarctic, rather than the Arctic. The geography of the southern hemisphere is far more efficient at containing CFCs than the northern, due to the existence of a wide belt (eg, 60S) with no land to interfere with circumpolar jet streams.
The ozone hole has been largely addressed by CFC bans. As I said, it's still there, but the concentrations of all but the most long-lived CFCs has started to fall, and there is early evidence that it's recovering.

Jan, back then you were a mild Feminist if you fought for equality for women, both at work and at home. I don't believe abortion came up too often back then. (maybe 10 years later.)
Hyacinth and I just agreed below that Feminists used to be a good thing in the past, now they rip apart anything good . A small percentage of women back then used to get smacked by their husbands . The useful Feminists brought attention to this and laws were changed or strictly enforced to help these women.
The following clip shows the character Mary Richards went for Birth Control Pills.

RON JOSEPH:
Mary Tyler Moore did NOT consider herself to be a feminist, as she clearly stated in interviews.
In fact, Gloria Steinem and feminists of that era wanted her to address abortion on her show and she refused.
She believed in 'family' and 'children'.
If you are amazed with Hyacinth's photos of China air pollution like I was, here are some photos of China's water pollution.

Truth, Robert Raymond. Decades ago, I joked about how to become Rich, off of Climate Scams. Unfortunately, one would have to put conscience aside, as Lying is the only way you could make it. Clearly, many continue to jump on the bandwagon to "easy" money. It's only for those with no conscience, working the Confidence Game..

You don't need to go to the Netherlands. The same thing is brewing in the Red River Valley, with the farmers blaming Winnipeg for putting the nutrients in the water, and Winnipeg blaming the farmers. It's a matter of time til regulations on water pollution crack down on nutrient seepage.
At any rate, "green meanies" or not, the water quality is atrocious.

Carbon is the newest scam. I'm not suggesting it isn't an issue because it is however Canada is at the TOP OF THE LIST OF BEING THE CLEANEST COUNTRY ON THE PLANET!
seems to me we canadians along with other prosperous nations are the blamed for everything wrong with the world and therefore need to "pay up" while the rest of the globe gets a pass!
decades ./years ago it was the OZONE which was the scam of the day. Yup, dire predictions that we were all going to burn up as the ozone layer was being depleted and it would never come back. well guess what the ozone layer is back and strong!!
THIS IS NOTHING MORE THAN CONTROLLING AND FLEECING THE WEST YET AT THE SAME TIME WE IN THE WEST ARE EXPECTED/.DEMANDED TO TAKE IN THE ENITRE THIRD WORLD TO SAVE THEM WHILE THEIR UP AND COMING ECONOMIES (cHINA/iNDIA) ARE THE BIGGEST POLLUTERS ON THE PLANET AND GET A PASS!
Throwing money at this 'issue' will change NOTHING!
HOW ABOUT SHIPS THROWING THEIR GARBAGE, EMPTYING THEIR RAW SEWAGE IN OUR OCEANS BE FINED TO THE HILT?? hOW ABOUT THE ISLAMIC NATIONS BEING FORCE TO SHUT OFF THEIR OIL AS THEY have no environmental laws? how about Brazil etc fined heavily for ALLOWING THE DESTRUCTION OF THE GLOBES BIGGEST RAIN FOREST which will in FACT seriously damage the climate all over the globe!!
yup it is NOTHING MORE THAN CORRUPTION, THEFT AND CONTROL OVER THE WEST AS PER USUAL AND THE LEFTY FREAKS GO ON THE WARPATH as they apparently don't have real jobs , disrupting the lives of the rest of us who have to work and pay all the bills, just because they can!
if trudeau is so concerned about this, WHY IS HE NOT STOPPING THE DUMPING OF RAW SEWAGE INTO OUR RIVERS, LAKES AND OCEANS ??
WHY DOES HE CONTINUE TO FLIT ALL OVER CANADA /GLOBE WEEKLY – SOMETIMES DAILY JUST TO SURF FOR AN HOUR OR TWO IN B.C??
SEND THIS FREAK SHOW PACKING AND SHUT DOWN THE PROTESTS AND START ENFORCING ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS ON THE THIRD WORLD NATIONS WHO ALL ENJOY THE MONEY WE THROW AT THEM TO SAVE THEM FROM THEMSELVES WHILE ALL THEY DO IS BREED, BREED, BREED – which in my opinion is one of , if not the BIGGEST THREAT TO PLANET EARTH!

"She is from Sweden where the women (feminists) make the decisions."
OK Hyacinth, I will certainly agree that Feminists 30 years were not as offensive and only wanted the rights (mostly working) due to them. An example would be the Mary Tyler Moore show.
I also strongly agree with the rest of your post.
When I stated that sentence, we must remember that the different types of Feminism weren't the subject and I didn't expect that anyone would pick the corn kernels out of the Shepherds Pie.
Ron Joseph, there is a world of difference between a feminist and what passes for a modern day feminist. The modern day feminists are more in line with anti-feminism, the Suffragettes are no doubt spinning in their graves. The child's mother obviously is modern day feminist as she is abusing and using her child for her own political beliefs and profit.
There are lots of articles on these subjects, but the attached, where he talks about paganism (and also about Greta Thunberg), is very interesting.
In 1967 a paper was written "arguing that Christianity and Judeo-Christian values are responsible for ecological disaster and climate change. "
"By destroying pagan animism, Christianity made it possible to exploit nature in a mood of indifference to the feelings of natural objects."
"Members have blocked D.C. and London intersections, "twerking" the way people in a pre-civilized era would perform a fertility dance to pray to Gaia."
https://thefederalist.com/2019/09/26/climate-worship-is-nothing-more-than-rebranded-paganism/
The worship of the environment is paganism and the 'St. Vitus' Dance' these nutcases were performing is part of the worshiping ritual to Gaia, 'Mother Earth' and is a major belief/part of the New Age [religion].
"the New Age feminist movement is already demanding that the Christian faith be replaced by the myth of Gaia, "mother Earth," whose cult is now being revived and practised."
It's all connected with the New World Order
(ref: https://www.ewtn.com/catholicism/library/closer-look-at-the-new-age-movement-11298)
The term 'St. Vitus' Dance' was a term that used to be used to describe someone acting nonsensically.
Liz Rosie—Who invited Greta to Alberta?
Greta arrived in Calgary today with no fanfare. Nenshi is going to meet with her, but the big deal is in Edmonton tomorrow thanks to Dan Iverson, the moron Edmonton Mayor. Notley and her losers will be there, but no one from the Provincial Government. (thank goodness)
There will be a counter protest in the form of a Convoy, however it will not be aggressive.

Ron, I am glad I am not the only one.
A lot of us are having all kinds of problems with this site.
I was watching Sky News a while ago and they are pulling Greta to pieces, it appears that where ever she has visited, people se her parents as Fairground Hucksters, on the make.
Ron, I am glad I am not the only one. I just tried to watch Ezra's video but as soon as I click on it it goe's 'Black Screen' with the message 'You have to be signed in to view this video' and underneath the message 'Sign in here', which when used comes up with a the message 'You are now signed in. Start watching, When I use this option I am unable to comment.
Sometimes the 'Comment' button is hidden by a 'Sign in with Facebook or Twitter' option, you can close this and see the 'Comment' button.
Anthony Ackrill commented 2019-10-17
Anthony, you seem to blame Greta's state of mind on the father. She is from Sweden where the women (feminists) make the decisions. Ezra has video's of Greta's mother working, while the father was probably cleaning the home.
Liz Rosie commented 2019-10-17 22:54:11 -0400
My concern for Greta, is that in 1-2 years time she will be even more emboldened and have risen up on the ladder of huckster stardom. If that happens it will mean we haven't been able to stop this madness. She needs to go away. We don't want her here.
So who officially 'invited' her for this second visit, and is it a paid speaking engagement? Is the government (us) paying for it? We had better not be paying her. What an insult, and just before people go to the ballot box too. She must know Trudeau is running on the climate change lie. Just how is this not election interference? Did Nenshi invite her?
Greta how dare you come to my country and spread your nihilistic views, trying to infect and scare our young people.
Keith Barnes, I'm getting by, but it is hit and miss as some times comment buttons disappear.
I suggest a hard worker named Jared at support@rebelnews.com
John Day commented 2019-10-17 22:20:24 -0400
Ezra, my concern for Greta, is that in 1-2 years time she will be out of the news cycle, depressed and commit suicide. It is not a happy thought.
But her parents, and the media, will promote it, thereby causing mass suicides of young people around the world.
In the transition of the Old Rebel to Rebel Old, I lost the full service for 3 weeks. In that time was Keith told to cool it? When he comments, he only seems to post one word.
If You don't see me around anymore (tonight) You will know that I have been caught commenting.
OF TOPIC.
Ever since the new version of the Rebel started I have had major problems with signing in, I start off by signing in and then select Ezra's Show but as soon as I hit the button I get a notice that I am not authorized to watch this show, I then get the option in another window to sign in, when I use this option I see a new window with "You are signed in, 'Start watching', I then can view the video but cannot make a comment or am asked to sign in to comment, which I do. Unfortunately this option is very rarely an option. I have a separate password for commenting. Tonight I have managed to make one short comment prior to this one.
Is there a Rocket Scientist among you, who can advise me because the help desk keeps kicking my crys for help down the road.

Licencja oprogramowania – umowa na korzystanie z utworu, jakim jest aplikacja komputerowa, zawierana pomiędzy podmiotem, któremu przysługują majątkowe prawa autorskie do utworu, a osobą, która zamierza z danej aplikacji korzystać.

Umowa taka powinna określać przede wszystkim pola eksploatacji (formy wykorzystania utworu), czyli warunki, na jakich licencjobiorca jest uprawniony do korzystania z programu. W Polsce ustawa o prawie autorskim i prawach pokrewnych jako podstawowe elementy określające pola eksploatacji wskazuje zakres, miejsce i czas korzystania z utworu, przy czym jest to wyliczenie przykładowe i strony umowy mogą dowolnie kształtować charakter licencji (biorąc jednak pod uwagę treść przepisów ustawowych, których strony nie mogą modyfikować – tzw. ius cogens).

Rodzaje licencji
Rozróżniamy następujące rodzaje licencji:
 licencje niewyłączne, w których udzielający licencji może zezwolić na korzystanie z utworu wielu osobom równocześnie, które nie muszą mieć formy pisemnej,
 licencje wyłączne (rzadkość w przypadku aplikacji komputerowych), spotykane głównie w przypadku znacznych kontraktów np. na wykonanie systemów bankowych itp., w tym przypadku zwykle umowa licencyjna wynika z umowy o dzieło, na podstawie której firma wykonująca oprogramowanie wykonuje zamówioną aplikację, umowa taka wymaga formy pisemnej pod rygorem nieważności,
 sublicencja, w której licencjobiorca może udzielić dalszej licencji, pod warunkiem wszakże takiego upoważnienia w jego umowie licencyjnej.

Prawa użytkowników
Użytkownicy komputerów najczęściej mogą spotykać się z licencją w odniesieniu do tzw. licencji użytkownika (EULA), które są używane przez producentów oprogramowania do wiązania użytkowników dodatkowymi ograniczeniami.

Licencje na oprogramowanie są najczęściej bardzo restrykcyjne i większość użytkowników nie czyta ich w ogóle. Większość takich licencji ogranicza liczbę komputerów, na których można zainstalować oprogramowanie, liczbę użytkowników, którzy mogą go używać i wprowadzają wiele innych ograniczeń, które nie są bezpośrednio związane z technologią. Standardowym elementem każdej niemal licencji oprogramowania jest klauzula o wyłączonej odpowiedzialności producenta z tytułu używania oprogramowania przez licencjobiorcę, której znaczenie polega na braku jakiejkolwiek odpowiedzialności producentów oprogramowania za np. skutki błędów w programach.

Licencja GPL i inne licencje FLOSS są reakcją na restrykcyjność licencji na oprogramowanie własnościowe.

Entry 1: Creating the CatanFusion Logo
Entry 2: Why Catan is Almost Perfect
Entry 3: Royal Weddings in Catan
You Will Be Amazed By How We Invented Our Logo
Business Logos Are Boring
As logos go, Business Logos are usually the most unimaginative. Although we have gotten away from the dreaded millennial swoosh, most company logos these days tend to fall into one of two categories:
Business Name in Boring Font, or Freely Interpreted Image
Our Old Logo Was Both
Before we even started our company, we knew that we needed a catchy name and a cool logo to go with it. The only problem is, just looking at our old logo makes us cringe. Really? This violates basic design principles and more than a few copyright issues, too.
Obviously, something had to change.
So we sat down with a lot of good ideas (and a lot of bad ones), and set ourselves some rules:
Rule #1: Our Logo Must be Simple Enough to Draw on a Napkin
Rule #2: Our Logo Must be Memorable
Rule #3: Our Logo Must be Both Obvious and Obscure
At first, none of our ideas fit these constraints. They were always too complicated, too common, or too confusing. It wasn't until we really examined ourselves that we had an "Aha!" moment.
First, we asked ourselves, "What is CatanFusion all about?" Well, we offer products and services that help people get more enjoyment out of their games of Catan. In particular, our rulesets and Seasons event cards make it possible to combine and play all of the previously-incompatible Catan expansions together. So we thought, "What's a great word for 'putting things together in a synergistic way'?"
Why, Fusion, of course!
Thus, CatanFusion was born.
Then came the thorny issue of the logo itself. There are certain images that come to mind when the word "Fusion" is used: Atoms and Nuclei and Energy. We started looking at simple drawings of atomic particles, and that's when we had a brainwave: there are three "orbits" in a typical atom drawing! Guess how many people are needed to play a game of Catan together? You guessed it-THREE! But it gets better. The three atomic orbits have six end-points. Guess what is the maximum number of players in a typical Catan game? SIX!
The Atom was here to stay.
When we drew those six oval rings, they formed a familiar shape in the middle. In case you might have forgotten, the basic building blocks of Catan are tiles that take the shape of hexagons. Those tiles that form the board of Catan are six-sided, and the center of our atom-logo certainly looked like it had six sides! With a little bit of almost-unnoticeable cleanup, we had a hex!
The Hex had arrived.
Besides hexes, Catan is famous for one other thing--Dice. The simple act of tossing those two dice creates an unbelievable amount of emotion: anguish, surprise, and joy. We knew that our logo wouldn't truly be complete without some reference to the random chance that has made Catan famous. We were looking at images of dice (yes, we were bored) when we noticed an M.C. Escher-esque drawing of endless cubes that appeared to be stacked on top of each other. All that was required to draw the scene was a hexagon and three straight lines.
The Cube made its entrance.
In the beginning, our logo was just black and white. Which is fine, but it looked boring and was hard to remember. We experimented with a number of different background colors as we tried to figure out which one was best. It finally came down to two colors, both of them related to nuclear/atomic situations. There was alien green (RGB: 153, 204, 0)(Hex: #99CC00), and then there was safety orange (RGB: 255, 153, 0)(Hex: #FF9900). Both of them had their pros and cons, but we tried to think about what color would catch people's attention best. The yellow/orange naturally attracted our eyes, because it looked like a construction sign. So it stuck.
The Color appeared.
Introducing Our New Logo
As a result, we came up with the following logo, which we think is much better than our previous one:

Ranking All Kinds of Gourds by How Healthy They Are
Butternut Squash? Zucchini? Pumpkin Spice? Which will best help my insides recover from all that candy corn?
The seasons are a-changing, the leaves are a-falling and I can finally start a-butchering a pumpkin on my front porch without my neighbors calling the police (leave me alone, Tom). Besides making spooky Halloween decorations and organic Thanksgiving centerpieces, though, gourds of all shapes and sizes deliver a substantial dose of healthy nutrients, too.
Since there are so many kinds of gourds — pudgy, elongated and otherwise — I asked nutritionist David Friedman, author of Food Sanity: How to Eat in a World of Fads and Fiction, to help me rank a whole bunch of them by how healthy they are, from superfood to decoration material.
So put down the knife and pick up the fork, because that gourd might be the healthiest snack you get your hands on all day.
1) Butternut Squash: Squash in general deliver an impressive assortment of health benefits, according to Friedman, including cancer prevention and improved vision, as well as diabetes management and enhanced heart health. "Squash gets its distinctive color from carotenoids, like beta-cryptoxanthin," he adds. "This plant pigment contains powerful antioxidants, which research shows could reduce your risk of developing arthritis and other inflammatory conditions."
Butternut squash in particular, though, is of the winter squash variety, which Friedman says offer decent sources of vitamins A and C — which enhance your vision and immune system, respectively — as well as iron and riboflavin, both of which help the body produce sustained energy. As a tip, Friedman suggests sprinkling pumpkin seeds onto your butternut squash soup, since they contain a burst of nutrients and can improve your heart health.
2) Acorn Squash: Another winter squash, acorn squash offers many of the same benefits as butternut squash, although perhaps to a slightly lesser extent. "It has a sweet, yellow-orange flesh inside and is most commonly prepared baked, sautéed or steamed," Friedman says. "It offers a slightly buttery and sweet taste, similar to pumpkin but a bit more sugary."
3) Zucchini: Zucchini is a summer squash, and while it has some of the same benefits as winter squashes, they generally come in less abundance. Also, as Friedman hinted at earlier, more colorful squashes tend to have more healthy carotenoids than the likes of the green zucchini. That said, per Friedman, summer squashes are generally a good source of niacin, which can lower cholesterol, ease arthritis and boost brain function.
The real nice thing about zucchini, though, is just how multifunctional it is. "If you're wanting a low-carb alternative to potatoes and pasta, zucchini is a great option," Friedman says. "Spiralizing makes it easier to get your daily requirement of vegetables, and it's something fun to do with your children — and a great way to get their faces away from their electronics."
4) Pattypan Squash: Another summer squash, the pattypan squash is nutritionally similar to the zucchini, with several variations. "Pattypan squash comes in yellow, green and white varieties, which can be sliced, baked, coated and fried until golden brown or boiled," Friedman says.
5) Sugar Pumpkin: Ah, a pumpkin — finally. "Sugar pumpkins, also called pie pumpkins, belong to the winter squash family," Friedman explains. "They're the definition of culinary creaminess, whether roasted, steamed, sautéed or pureed."
Sugar pumpkins are much smaller than the pumpkins we usually carve for Halloween (more on them later), but they provide a much denser array of nutrients and contain a thicker, more appetizing flesh. "The large jack-o'-lantern pumpkins you buy for Halloween are perfect for carving," Friedman says. "However, while technically safe to consume, these aren't ideal pumpkins to eat." That's mainly because the walls are much thinner and grainier than with smaller pumpkins, like sugar pumpkins.
Healthwise, pumpkins in general — sugar pumpkins included — do the body good. "Ironically, we carve pumpkins into all sorts of scary faces, but in reality, they're more like big, sweet orange smiley faces for your whole body," says Friedman. "Pumpkin offers a great source of health-enhancing potassium, which aids in controlling high blood pressure. It also contains beta-carotene, which your body turns into vitamin A, needed for a healthy immune system, eye health, skin and mucous membranes. Research shows that vitamin A can strengthen the immune system and help fight infections, too."
"Pumpkin also contains the antioxidants alpha-carotene, beta-carotene and beta-cryptoxanthin, which may protect your cells against damage done by free radicals," Friedman continues. "Pumpkin is high in antioxidants, too, which may prevent (bad) LDL cholesterol from oxidizing, decreasing arterial wall clumping and reducing the risk of a heart attack."
6) Spaghetti Squash: Another winter squash, spaghetti squashes boast a decent assortment of health benefits, similar to other winter squashes, and make a particularly good alternative to actual spaghetti. "Spaghetti Squash comes in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors — including ivory, yellow and orange — with orange having the highest amount of beta-carotene," Friedman says. "When it's cooked, it resembles spaghetti noodles, which makes it a healthier and gluten-free alternative to pasta. Top it with your favorite homemade pasta sauce and serve it with your favorite chicken parmesan recipe."
7) Cheese Pumpkin: While larger and perhaps slightly less nutritious than sugar pumpkins, cheese pumpkins are quite healthy, too. "Also known as a Long Island Cheese Pumpkin or Cinderella pumpkin, the only thing cheese-like about this pumpkin is its wide, cheese-rind appearance," Friedman explains. "Inside this delicious variety of squash, you'll find smooth, dense meat, perfect for baking, roasting, stewing or even for turning into custard. Cheese Pumpkin is also considered by many chefs as the best option for making pumpkin pie."
One of the great things about pumpkins in general is their ability to keep you full without too many calories. As Friedman explains, pumpkin contains 94 percent water and has less than 50 calories per cup. "Being a great source of fiber," he adds, "pumpkin can help to suppress your appetite, too."
Buying canned pumpkin is fine — and much, much easier to deal with — but Friedman suggests checking the label to make sure there aren't too many additives. "Not all pumpkins sold in a can contain 100-percent real pumpkin," he explains. "Many of them are chock-full of additives, binders, fillers and lots of sugar."
What's in This?: Pumpkin Pie Mix
8) Kabocha Squash: Yet another winter squash, kabocha squash comes from Japan, and again, is mostly comparable — but maybe slightly less nutritious — to many other winter squashes on this list. "Kabocha has an exceptional sweet flavor, even sweeter than butternut squash," Friedman says. "It's similar in texture and flavor to a pumpkin and sweet potato combined. Some kabocha can taste like russet potatoes or chestnuts."
9) Delicata Squash: A cream-colored winter squash, "As its name suggests, it has a characteristically delicate rind," Friedman says. "Smaller than most varieties, delicata has a sweet flesh and a thin skin that's perfectly edible. You can cook this squash without peeling off the skin and then roast it, slice it, sauté it or blend it."
10) Carving Pumpkins: There are a whole assortment of pumpkins we carve into jack-o'-lanterns — racer pumpkins, zeus pumpkins, hobbit pumpkins, gold rush pumpkins, the list goes on and on. Since these pumpkins are bred specifically for carving, they often lack the thick, nutritious flesh that comes in the likes of sugar pumpkins, and instead have thinner walls and a woodier, stringier texture, as Friedman pointed out earlier.
11) Pumpkin Spice Latte: Okay, a pumpkin spice latte isn't a gourd, but it was (kinda) based on one. "Unfortunately, unlike the other pumpkin options on this list, there's nothing healthy about this beverage," Friedman says. "In fact, there's been major media coverage and viral social media posts on the unhealthy coloring, preservatives and chemicals used to make it. Apparently, they forgot to add pumpkin to this latte."
Well, there you go. Looks like the police are here, so my beautifully-carved pumpkin and I gotta run. Goddamnit, Tom.
