SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES HEAD COACH MATIAS ALMEYDA
On the team's growth over the tournament:
"I think the team keeps growing game after game. It keeps showing a very positive attitude. In unity, in sacrifice, but more than anything in how they play. The best thing for a coach is to get the maximum level out of each player because that will allow us to have growth. Once again, I am grateful to each player and for the work they have put in."
On how the team's growth has propelled them onto the Quarterfinals:
"I think that the work you put in allows you to improve. The humbleness and sacrifice that each once of us has had to come here two weeks prior to the tournament in Orlando and leave our families behind. There are lots of other extra-football things going on that are fundamental for our group. We do not only train football players but also value the human aspect that each one of them have. We try to have a unity and conviction, and I think that every victory we have is very gratifying because we work a lot for it. We make a great sacrifice, and that's the happiness that I have for them, for our executives, for ownership, and for our families who have been waiting for us for over a month now. Those that are from other countries are also waiting with lots of uncertainty on the ongoing pandemic. We're not only playing a football tournament; we're playing a lot more than that."
On the team's leadership:
"The person that knows me knows that I am not for having one or two leaders. Leadership comes out by all the players, from the one that plays and the one that does not have the opportunity to. The treatment is that same and the best thing that a player can get is that your coach treats you the same way. I know Oswaldo [Alanis], Andy [Rios], [Carlos] Fierro, [Daniel] Vega from a while back. I know them, and with respect to Magnus [Eriksson], they have the same treatment as everyone else. We prioritize the group a lot and I know each one of them contributes with their own grain of sand."
SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES MIDFIELDER MAGNUS ERIKSSON
On his confidence shooting both penalty kicks:
"We have been shooting penalties during the week and I felt pretty confident. I had a really great feeling before both penalty kicks. There was no doubt from my side. I am really happy with the performance tonight with the boys and everybody around the team, so it is a great evening for us."
On the team's togetherness during this tournament:
"I think at this time, every one of us enjoys being here. That was actually one of the things that we said before the game on the field, that we had been here for almost five weeks so we can stay two more and go all the way through the final. That's our goal. We enjoy it here. We play great as a team and enjoy every minute together, so I am really happy being here. I think a lot of guys are very happy to be here so we make the best out of the situation and we'll try to go as far as we can."
SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES FORWARD ANDY RIOS
On his comfortability on the field:
"I do think that my growth is shaping up on how the team is training game by game. That makes me feel more comfortable, on what I can give and can continue to provide. There is more for us to give and I am just happy for this moment we are going through, not just for the individual but also as a group."

How to Set a Table Like Valentino
A few years ago, I attended a dinner at the Château de Wideville, Valentino Garavani's country pile outside Paris.
It was a gala, full of famous guests and gowns, but the part of it I remember most was the sight of the rolling green lawn spread out beyond the grand maison, bordered by ribbons of white pebble paths that were being raked, just so, by a host of tuxedo-clad men.
It was the first time I had seen actual men raking such paths, and I remember thinking I probably would never see it again – not in fashion, at least. Increasingly, the life that a successful designer once led, full of Picassos and Biedermeier and Feadships, seems like a memory from another, preindustrial time.
As Mr. Garavani knows. He was, after all, the subject of a 2008 documentary entitled "The Last Emperor," and last month published a book, "At the Emperor's Table," both artifacts conceived to memorialize a lifestyle that is being lost. But while the former is all about what was, the latter, full of recipes and elaborate table settings, is more of a how-to for what still could be.
"Once upon a time it was usual to give beautiful dinners, in the 1980s, the 1990s," Mr. Garavani said, when I asked him about the book, "but now it is all seen as less important. It is unfortunate. A beautiful, interesting table is an expression of a joy and respect for your guests, or just yourself. Even when I eat alone, I always have the table set in an amusing way."
This made me wonder: Did I feel joy when I ate? I certainly had never considered my table setting "interesting." Had I fallen victim to the dinner party equivalent of athleisurewear? Were my dinner parties actually  leggings?
This was not a happy thought.
Maybe, I decided, it was time to test the Valentino approach. It was the holiday season, after all. A super-fancy table would not stick out that much. My husband and I would recreate Wideville in Brooklyn, minus the pebble paths and staff, and taking into account the fact that our wedding china and silver had been put away years ago in favor of child-and-dishwasher-safe plastic. I would use the book as my guide.
Immediately it was clear there were going to be problems.
Mr. Garavani, as the sumptuous photographs show, likes to adorn his tables much as he adorns his evening gowns, but instead of lace and paillettes, he uses Meissen, porcelain asparagus and silver waterfowl. Also many different kinds of linens.
I do not own any tablecloths, nor do I have many decorative objets. A quick survey of our breakfront yielded: one duck-shaped china egg-warming tureen that my husband had sneaked onto our wedding list as a joke, thinking, in his misguided youth, that no one would buy it (it was the first gift that arrived); and some bulbous glass grapes I bought at a flea market in a fit of nostalgia for my grandmother.
Then there were the menus. Or lack of menus. Instead of organizing his book by meals, Mr. Garavani organized it by his homes (Gstaad, London, New York, the yacht, Wideville), which made it hard to even understand what was a first course and what was an entree. Also, the photos, while gorgeous, were difficult to deconstruct.
Was that salmon actually cooked? It looked awfully …smoked. Maybe Mr. Garavani believed in only two courses? Maybe this was a skinny fashion thing, where the food was less important than the styling?
(Mr. Garavani, the book makes clear, is into healthy eating: All the pasta he recommends is whole-wheat Kamut pasta, and his desserts mostly use Xylitol, a natural low-calorie sweetener. Of course, the torte I ended up making uses three sticks of butter, but it's all relative.)
We were clearly going to need help. I called Mr. Garavani.
"Always three courses," he said. "It's tradition." O.K., then.
In the end, we chose the menu mostly according to accessibility of ingredients and equipment (a lack of a soda siphon pretty much mitigated against the beet cream), as well as efficiency: vegetable tempura (made by my husband), salmon stuffed with spinach and egg and covered in zucchini scales (made by me) and chocolate torte (made in advance by me and my older daughter). The recipes were a little vague. The zucchini, for example, looked a lot like cucumber in the picture, and there were no details on whether to sauté or boil the spinach (just "cook the spinach"), but this was not Mr. Garavani's fault, as he told me he does not cook. His chef cooks; he creative-directs! On to the creative directing.
"It is absolutely not enough to have plates, glasses, some flowers," he said. "You need to give people something to look at. You need to mix things up. It is not possible to do a spare table. Hundred-year-old saltcellars are fun. I have a mania for china. I have been collecting for 40 years, going to auctions at Sotheby's, Christies."
"What if you don't have that much china?" I asked tentatively.
"Color," he said. "I always do some color. A table is an expression of the person who is setting it."
Now we were getting somewhere. Color I could do. Mix I could do. Just one more thing: tablecloths?
"I like a beautiful wood table," Mr. Garavani said. "It is nice to eat on top. But you need a wonderful napkin. If you do the napkins nicely, it gives the effect the owner of the house knows what's going on."
That, it seemed to me, was a good tip.
The table took about as long as the torte and the salmon combined (including baking time), in part because it involved scouring the house for any potentially "fun" objects that could double as decorations, and in part because I had to get all sorts of stuff out of storage.
Out came the silver. Out came the crystal (glasses of many colors). Out came china salad plates. Out came some silver-plated charger plates my mother gave me that I had stared at puzzled and put away. With them, my striped plastic dinnerware and water glasses of assorted shapes and patterns, since we had broken so many that we didn't have more than six of any kind. I am being high/low, I told myself.
A paper floral sculpture I had bought from a party at Milan Fashion Week was liberated from its Perspex box to be the centerpiece, mixed with some real flowers, two glass candlesticks, bowls of real grapes from the supermarket and the glass grapes from the flea market, and little dishes for olive oil (Mr. Garavani believes in olive oil) and pesto.
Oh — and the napkins? Ripped from a MYdrap roll, as perfectly starched and crisp as if I had ironed them myself. As if I knew what was going on.
It was as more-ish a table as I had ever set, and while it looked (to me, anyway) a little over-the-top, it also felt satisfyingly fancy. It reminded me of an experience I had a few years ago at the Met Costume Institute ball, when the Valentino brand was my host and had insisted I wear a long dress, even though I never wear long dresses (I was married in a short dress), and I ended up in a floor-length sea foam green A-line gown. Though I felt like a ship skimming o'er the waves as I moved, everyone I met said: "Wow! I have never seen you like this," in an ultimately very pleasing way.
My guests had much the same reaction when I asked what Valentino might have thought.
"I think they would have given the food and décor a good rating," said my friend Sally, who knew of what she spoke, having once been a guest at Giancarlo Giammetti's house, at a party for Elizabeth Taylor (Mr. Giammetti being Mr. Garavani's longtime business partner). "But possibly they would have liked the wait staff to be in house livery," she added, referring to my 9-year-old son, who had butlered coats.
"It was a bit of a surprise in your house, but it didn't feel entirely inauthentic," agreed Siddhartha, who has worked at fashion brands from Paris to New York. "There was no mozzarella on the menu, no Gwyneth or Anne Hathaway, but there were stimulating discussions on literacy, gender, being a New Yorker and the West's distorted view of Islam."
(I'm not sure how Mr. Garavani would have felt about that, but some things it's hard to change.)
"Why don't we use this stuff more?" my daughter asked later, when we were wiping down the crystal. An unexpected bonus to dipping into the Valentino world without the Valentino staff: Though it definitely requires serious prep and cleaning time, it can be a bonding experience.
"I don't know," I said. "Good question."
And I wonder why, I thought, I have never asked it before?
Image: The inspiration for the décor came from Valentino Garavani's book "At the Emperor's Table."

An older version of McAfee came with a PC that my parents bought. They tried to install this version and had problems. When they called McAfee for help, McAfee referred them to a paid, third-party support service. They purchased the service but McAfee still wouldn't work right. The service has also deleted/hidden most of Window's built-in administrative/maintenance features. My parents can't stand McAfee after this experience. I've replaced McAfee with Norton. No problems with Norton installation & performance.
Chris from Bethpage - does it work?
I purchased this product anticipating that it would help me feel better and loose weight. It did none of those things. Very Disappointed, and not worth the money.

Ever since Burts Bees was bought-out by Clorox they've been re-folmulating all of their products, and not for the better! This baby shampoo and body wash is way too harsh, especially for kids and babies. It strips the skin and leaves it completely dried out, and tangles up the hair leaving it feeling stiff and crunchy. Time to look for a new natural baby care line. Way to ruin a great thing Clorox, way to ruin it!


Brooklyn, New York – now home to over 50 unique neighborhoods, 500 public schools, and 300 parks, all serviced by 18 subway lines and over 50 bus routes – is flush with infrastructure and transportation. As the sense of community, industry, commerce, education, and public and private investment continue to entice new residents, opportunities for development broaden.
Developable Land. In a city of this population density and popularity, it is advantageous that Brooklyn still provides land avail- able to develop from the ground up. In addition, with population projections exceeding housing expectations, we have already begun to see neighborhoods being rezoned for increased density.
Population Growth. Looking to the future, Brooklyn can conservatively expect an additional 335,000 residents by 2040. Brooklyn's population has been growing roughly 37% faster than the rest of NYC combined. Given development restraints in Manhattan, that figure could increase significantly.
Supply & Demand. At a current average rate of 2.7 people per household, housing the projected additional population will require over 124,000 new units by 2040. Inventory, however, remains largely static, while population and economic development continue to push demand. Availability remains tight, with a citywide vacancy rate of just over 3%.
Economic Growth. Known for fostering the growth of local entrepreneurs and small businesses, Brooklyn has also caught the attention of the rapidly expanding technology sector, big-box retailers, and large corporations. Between 2001 and 2011, Brooklyn experienced a 24% increase in jobs, positively impacting the economy by approximately $3.1 billion. The office market has expanded to 1.7 million square feet and continues to grow.
These prominent indicators demonstrate the wealth of opportunity in the Brooklyn real estate market, a market that affords investment across all uses, asset classes, and risk tolerances.
There are four main types of investment – Core, Core Plus, Value Add, and Opportunistic – each yielding a return range corresponding to the level of risk.
Brennan primarily focuses on Opportunistic and Value Add investment types.


Sales volumes averaged 80,471 Boe/d in the third quarter of 2018, including 29,831 Bbl/d or 37 percent liquids. Production was impacted by scheduled turnarounds at a third-party facility in Karr and Paramount's 8-9 facility in Kaybob, as well as the Resthaven/Jayar sale. In addition, an extended commissioning period for the Kaybob Smoky 6-16 plant expansion delayed the start-up of 4 (4.0 net) new Duvernay wells until early-November.
Annual sales volumes in 2018 are expected to average between 85,000 Boe/d and 86,000 Boe/d, reflecting lower anticipated fourth quarter sales volumes due to lower production in the Kaybob region, dry gas shut-ins, pipeline outages in northeast British Columbia and weather issues in west central Alberta.
Adjusted funds flow was $58.2 million ($88.3 million before hedging settlements) or $0.44 per share for the third quarter of 2018, and $218.4 million ($285.5 million before hedging settlements) or $1.65 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 totalled $452.7 million.
Paramount realized $181.7 million of cash proceeds from dispositions in the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Paramount continues to pursue non-core property dispositions with a focus on maximizing value.
Paramount's sales volumes averaged 80,471 Boe/d in the third quarter of 2018, including 29,831 Bbl/d or 37 percent liquids. Production was impacted by scheduled turnarounds at a third-party facility in Karr and Paramount's 8-9 natural gas processing facility in Kaybob (the ʺ8-9 Plantʺ), which in total impacted sales volumes by approximately 5,000 Boe/d, as well as the sale of approximately 5,000 Boe/d of production at Resthaven/Jayar in early-July. In addition, an extended commissioning period for the Kaybob Smoky 6-16 processing plant expansion (the ʺ6-16 Plantʺ) delayed the start-up of new Duvernay wells from August to early-November.
The Company continues to monitor its natural gas properties and is shutting-in wells on a temporary basis when market prices fall below economic thresholds. In September, Paramount permanently shut-in all production related to the Hawkeye area in the Central Alberta and Other region, which averaged approximately 1.79 MMcfe/d of dry gas (approximately 300 Boe/d) for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Paramount's netback was $112.2 million in the third quarter of 2018. As a result of lower sales volumes, operating costs averaged $12.25 per Boe in the third quarter. Operating costs averaged $11.77 per Boe for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Exploration and development capital was $131.0 million in the third quarter of 2018 and $434.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Year-to-date exploration and development spending included $124.8 million related to growth projects at Wapiti and Karr that will add material liquids-rich production and cash flow in 2019. The Company completed an extensive maintenance program in the third quarter in the Kaybob and Central Alberta and Other regions, including processing facility turnarounds, compressor overhauls and equipment upgrades. Where possible, this work was scheduled to align with facility outages.
Grande Prairie Region sales volumes averaged 21,446 Boe/d in the third quarter of 2018, primarily liquids-rich production from the Karr development. The impact of the scheduled turnaround at a third-party facility that processes Karr natural gas production was as expected. Exploration and development capital totaled $80.6 million in the third quarter and $228.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Development activities in the third quarter focused on starting up the five wells on the 1-2 Karr pad and drilling and completion operations at the 9-3 Wapiti pad.
Royalty rates for the Karr development increased in the third quarter of 2018 compared to the same period in 2017 as a number of wells from the 2016/2017 Montney drilling program fully utilized their new well royalty incentives. New wells at Karr will continue to benefit from a five percent initial royalty rate up to the maximum incentive.
Initial results from the five Montney wells on the 1-2 Karr pad have been in line with expectations. The 1-2 Karr pad includes the Company's first high intensity completion of a Lower Montney horizontal well. This well continues to meet expectations and is performing in line with adjacent Middle Montney wells. No well locations have been recognized in the Lower Montney for Paramount's Karr development to date.
The Company has also commenced drilling operations for 12 (12.0 net) new Montney wells on the 5-3 pad at Wapiti. Wells from the 9-3 pad and the 5-3 pad will be produced through a new 150 MMcf/d third-party processing facility, which the operator plans to commission in mid-2019.
Kaybob Region sales volumes averaged 37,454 Boe/d in the third quarter of 2018, including 11,632 Bbl/d of liquids. The production impact of the scheduled turnaround at Paramount's 8-9 Plant in Kaybob was larger than expected. Exploration and development capital in the Kaybob Region was $33.6 million in the third quarter of 2018 and $172.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
The 4 (4.0 net) wells on the 10-35 Smoky pad began flowing through permanent facilities in early-November. The 6-16 Plant at Smoky was expanded from 6 MMcf/d to 12 MMcf/d by making use of existing equipment moved to Kaybob from Zama in northern Alberta. This redeployment of existing equipment reduced capital costs and enabled the plant expansion to be fast tracked from 2019, but also resulted in an unanticipated two-month extension of the commissioning and startup period as plant components underwent additional inspections and refurbishment.
Initial results have confirmed the high liquids yield nature of the Smoky Duvernay reservoir. The Company plans to evaluate the performance of these wells for the remainder of 2018 and develop a full field development strategy for the Company's Duvernay lands in this area.
The Company's 2018 capital program at the Kaybob South Duvernay development includes two multi-well pads. 5 (2.5 net) wells on the 7-22 South Duvernay pad were brought on production in the third quarter. These wells averaged 1,453 Boe/d of gross peak 30-day production per well, with an average CGR of 199 Bbl/MMcf.(1) Drilling operations for 5 (2.5 net) wells on the 2-28 pad commenced in September. These wells are scheduled to be completed and brought on production in mid-2019.
Central Alberta and Other Region sales volumes averaged 21,571 Boe/d in the third quarter of 2018. Exploration and development capital in the Central Alberta and Other Region totaled $16.8 million in the third quarter.
Over the course of the past year, the Company has expanded its Duvernay land position in the East Shale Basin. Total working interest lands more than doubled to approximately 50,000 acres. Paramount also owns over 10,000 acres of Fee Title lands in the area.
Paramount is an independent, publicly traded, liquids-focused Canadian energy company that explores for and develops both conventional and unconventional petroleum and natural gas resources, including long-term strategic exploration and pre-development plays, and holds a portfolio of investments in other entities. The Company's principal properties are located in Alberta and British Columbia. Paramount's Class A common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol "POU".
The foregoing list of risks is not exhaustive. For more information relating to risks, see the section titled "RISK FACTORS" in Paramount's current annual information form. The forward-looking information contained in this press release is made as of the date hereof and, except as required by applicable securities law, Paramount undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
In this press release, "Adjusted funds flow", "Netback", "Net debt" and "Exploration and development capital", collectively the "Non-GAAP measures", are used and do not have any standardized meanings as prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards.
"Adjusted funds flow" refers to cash from operating activities before net changes in operating non-cash working capital, geological and geophysical expenses, asset retirement obligation settlements and transaction and reorganization costs. Adjusted funds flow is commonly used in the oil and gas industry to assist management and investors in measuring the Company's ability to fund capital programs and meet financial obligations. Refer to the Consolidated Results section of the Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 for the calculation thereof. "Netback" equals petroleum and natural gas sales less royalties, operating costs and transportation and NGLs processing costs. Netback is commonly used by management and investors to compare the results of the Company's oil and gas operations between periods. Refer to the Operating Results section of the Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 for the calculation thereof. "Net debt" is a measure of the Company's overall debt position after adjusting for certain working capital amounts and is used by management to assess the Company's overall leverage position. Refer to the Liquidity and Capital Resources section of the Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 for the calculation of Net debt. "Exploration and development capital" consists of the Company's spending on wells, infrastructure projects, other property, plant and equipment and exploration and evaluation assets and excludes spending related to land and property acquisitions and corporate assets. The Exploration and development capital measure provides management and investors with information regarding the Company's capital spending on wells and infrastructure projects separate from land and property acquisition activity and corporate expenditures. Refer to the Property, Plant and Equipment and Exploration Expenditures section of the Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 for the calculations thereof.
The term "liquids" includes oil, condensate and Other NGLs (ethane, propane and butane). NGLs consist of condensate and Other NGLs.
This press release contains disclosures expressed as "Boe", "$/Boe", "MBoe" and "Boe/d". Natural gas equivalency volumes have been derived using the ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil. Equivalency measures may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the well head. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the value ratio between crude oil and natural gas was approximately 55:1. This value ratio is significantly different from the energy equivalency ratio of 6:1. Using a 6:1 ratio would be misleading as an indication of value.

Carole took the time to listen to my needs and my perception / analysis of the marketplace, which allowed us to list the property higher than what most other realtors would have suggested purely based on comps. Data can go a long way but personal experience goes a long way. Carole is a rock star with incredible experience in the Farmington Valley and is a very easy recommendation to anyone needing excellence in either their property sale or new home search!
Carole is phenomenal at what she does. As a first time home buyer, we had many questions and concerns, but she was there for us every step of the way. She advocated for our best interest and guided us throughout the whole process so we felt comfortable and reassured with every step. I recommend Carole without any hesitation to anyone looking for a realtor.
Carole was wonderful. My condo sold in two days! She gave me excellent support from the pricing right down to the last details. She was in touch regularly with updates and took care of so many details so I would not be stressed. She was confident and calm. Carole is personable, has a good sense of humor and was a delight to work with.
Carole is well skilled at her job. She takes a lead role when needed and can read the client well. I felt very confident with Carole. She had my back at every twist and turn. I would highly recommend her.
Carole was absolutely terrific to work with on the sale of my father's house. She made it so easy for us. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. Just Awesome!

"Sad-eyed defender of the new reality"
Nick Clegg is kind of the man we hate to hate. We don't want to hate him, and we do hate doing it. But there it is. It's a double-hatey.
Charlie Brooker's today pointed his blinding laser-beam of cynical humour directly Clegg's way, in an article so cruelly funny it almost seems unfair. But what does fair really mean to the Lib Dem leader these days? Hum.
On cutting off his nose to spite his face
"Before the election, I made a solemn pledge to leave my nose intact. I even printed that pledge out, signed it, and posed for photos while holding it up and smiling like I meant it. So I can understand people's disquiet over this. It's something I've wrestled with personally. But nonetheless, off it goes. Cutty cutty nose time! Tee hee! Hoo hoo! Chop, chop, chop!"
Worth reading the whole thing, before falling into a small quandary about whether you feel more pity, or actually more hate, for the poor Lib Dem leader these days.
Filed under: Politics, UK, Clegg, coalition, Lib Dems
Why "hate to hate him"? I think he's somebody we'd all love to hate! Look at that Cameron budget he just endorsed! A Draconian austere budget. Perhaps neither Cameron nor Clegg pay any attention to their neighbour, Ireland, whose government did impose austerity measures in 2008, when the recession there first began; it's proven to fail miserably and some even wonder if they'll even recover.
No, Cameron's latest austerity budget is even more Thatcheresque than perhaps even what Thatcher herself could have thrown. But, this is all about "Keeping up with the Jones's" economy. The new Austerity fad, complete with mythical,non-existant confidence fairy. Paul Krugman had pointed out that this latest budget is nothing more than Tory ideology and great built-in excuse to cut the welfare state.
Clegg is along for the ride, with both eyes open. Why he is to be hated more than Cameron is that Cameron and his party stand for things like cutting the welfare state, smaller government and all that B.S. It's expected of him. I think many hoped that with Clegg's Lib-Dems as a partner, perhaps things wouldn't be so bad, that there would be compromise. But, that's proving more and more not the case. He's proving to be Cameron's useful idiot (well, useful, anyway)
Hell, it doesn't even look like Clegg will get his electoral reform that he used to hold fast to.
In the end, Clegg and his party, who, much like the NDP, had always been nothing more than a third place party and he saw this coalition opportunity with Cameron as his only way to power. Now that he and his party are part of the government, as I've mentioned, he's simply along for the ride of power. Why should he make any kind of efford to get any concessions that suit Lib-Dem ideology? He probably knows that this is the only way to power, riding the coat tails of a bigger party; that he will never actually be voted as a winning party or even an official opposition, why would he even care that his polling numbers are slumping?
I think the "hate to hate" comes from this enduring numb disappointment in having an erstwhile "hero" transform with apparent ease into a bit of a puppet.
I wanted so much love. I have so much love to give.
I'd distinguish Nick Clegg from his party, though. The Lib-Dems, as the hyphen insinuates, is a party that's still largely divided across its pre-merger faultline. The "Liberal" wing, Clegg's wing, is very much in the mold of Ignatieff's brand of centre-right liberalism. Sing society's praises as it's electorally clever to do so, but keep soft on detail. The "Democrat" wing are the old social democrats who believe in more-or-less traditional leftist values. Party identity since the '80s merger has never been very clear or unified.
What the coalition has exposed is not the difficulty of a Tory/Lib-Dem relationship, but the ease of the Tory/Lib relationship, and the outrage of the Dem. Google deputy LD leader Simon Hughes, a "Democrat," today promising a backbench revolt against cuts to social housing planned by "his" government.
Could it have been different? Could a coalition partner be better unified internally, and keep a healthier distance from drastic Tory policies? I think so. Clegg's sold the chance down the river though.
MoS says:
It truly was a dandy piece of writing, wasn't it? Britain isn't the only country that has an enabler like this. Canada has one too, only he's not in a coalition government. He's the opposition leader. Take that article, substitute Ignatieff for Clegg, and you'll see what I mean.
Hmm, lessee, home care v fighter bomber planes. Right! How could I have missed that?
Harper, a South American Dictator lite (can become heavy with majority and more than likely would). Honestly say the same thing about Iggy? I don't. So he's hugging the center.
Sorry, but, be pragmatic, there is a conservative revolt going on across Europe and in North America. Even Julia Gillard, PM of Australia understood that. If she hadn't have steered her party to the right, she probably would have tanked instead of being tied with Tony Abbott, the wingnut.
Even Sweden that used to be Socialist–no more! Now the balance of power is held by a far right party with neo-nazi precedents.
Come next week, all those whack job tea-baggers who believe the earth is flat, that mice have human brains and would disallow sex, implement draconian laws that would cripple the biggest employer in the State of Nevada (Angle), immaculate conception, etc. who would have been laughed off the stage, let alone unelectable will more than likely win. Some even landslides.
So, yeah, those are the choices, far extreme right or center-right. Because the left ain't gonna win at this time.
Despite essays and articles by respected economists like Stiglitz, Krugman and others; as well as precidents such as the Hoover presidency in 1937 and more recently, Ireland since 2008. Austerity is a fad; "Keeping up with the Jones's" And for some reason, the average Jane and Joe Six-pack all wanna be on that band wagon.
Progressives and the center left are dismissed as evul soshalists, and connies are all abuzz about the "failures of soshalism", I"m sure they need Depends.
All this to say, while harsh, it's going to come down to the hard choice: Harper or Iggy.
And yes, NDP, not much better, they are largely the reason why the Harpercons got into power in the first place. Funny how most forget that.
We're living in a centre-right moment, no doubt. Across Europe and in North America, even the "collapse of capitalism" in 2008 didn't herald a long-awaited new age of ultra-Keynesian economics.
The problem with a rush centre-ward, though, is how to take a party with you. What's the unifying credo? X if necessary, but not necessarily X? Not a knock on the pragmatics of centrism, but there are big unity challenges.
In effect, talking about the Lib-Dems, that's what Clegg's done to them. He's pulled both the centre-left and centre-right wings of the party deep in one direction, trying to be all things to all people. In so doing, he's become *one* thing to all people – sadly, it's a hypocrite.
Labour's leadership vote last month was incredibly tight, but the winner was the perceived leftist, as the party *in general* sees a huge space opening on the left now. Come election time, when people (are supposed to) revolt against the impact of the gov't cuts, it's leftward they'll go. Brits, happily, aren't afraid of a bit of socialism 🙂
p.s. I might have sounded snide towards Iggy, but it wasn't to equate him to Harper! Besides George W., Harper has few equals. But I'm comparing Iggy to Clegg (difference being that Britain's centre is small, and Canada's is big). In both liberal clans, there's an obvious tumult in hugging the centre, as their conflicting left and right factions have difficulty with unity, and can end up their own worst enemies.
I'm really not getting why people are picking on Clegg so much. I think he's doing an admirable job in a difficult situation. If people actually paid attention to things, they'd see he's not really flipflopped (or u-turned as they say in the UK). Like when the Lib Dems adopted the proposal to get rid of tuition fees at last year's conference, Clegg told them outright that even if they were elected, it wasn't something they'd be able to deliver on any time soon given the state of the country's finances. It's a coalition – what the hell do people expect him to do?
I definitely agree that people have to accept that you can't get your way all the time in a coalition. Especially when the Lib Dems are very much the junior partner, with only a sixth the seats as their partners. There has to be some realism, and lots of their manifesto pledges won't survive.
The struggle here for Lib Dem supporters is partly one of ministerial watertightness, how they thought a coalition would work – and secondary to that is Clegg's attitude. I think a lot of LD supporters would be happy to hear Clegg say "Our team is responsible for a few main things: climate change, energy, business, higher education, electoral reform. So, judge us on our performance in those areas, and judge the Tories on their side of the govt – defence, budgets and the treasury, immigration, foreign affairs, home office etc." (of course, difficulty being that "budgets" affect everything, especially in a time of massive cuts!)
The problems emerge for people when this watertightness comes undone from both ends: 1. Clegg over-reaches and lends total support to the Toryest of Tory ideas, which really alienates his "social democrat" base in an effort to appear central to decision-making across Whitehall, and at the same time 2. Clegg appears to allow Conservative encroachment on Lib-Dem areas of ministerial responsibility, i.e. university tuition fee reform, which ought to fall under Vince Cable's BIS ministry.
It's a fascinating balance, and not always a fair one. A clearer division of powers would help the LDs enormously though.

Центральный вокзал — железнодорожный вокзал, предлагавшийся к сооружению в Москве в начале XX века в качестве единого вокзала вместо нескольких имевшихся.

Описание
Расположение вокзала предлагалось в самом центре города у Кремля и Красной площади. Вокзал должен был быть связан с железнодорожными линиями всех направлений от Москвы и интегрирован в систему линий метрополитена.

Варианты проектов
Первые из проектов — Общества Рязано-Уральской железной дороги и инженера А. И. Антоновича от 1901 года и инженеров Н. И. Голиневича и Н. П. Дмитриева от 1902 года — предполагали размещение Центрального вокзала в Александровском саду.

Другой проект Центрального вокзала у Кремля от Александровского до Лубянского садов, совмещённого с главной станцией метро, в 1902 году был предложен инженером и предпринимателем П. И. Балинским при участии инженера Е. К. Кнорре, рассмотрен Московской городской думой и отклонён ввиду высокой стоимости реализации и протестов общественности.

По проекту 1911 года инженера Е. К. Кнорре должны были быть сооружены подземные Центральный пассажирский вокзал между Театральным и Неглинным проездами и Центральный товарный вокзал на Охотном ряду.

Ещё один проект Центрального вокзала и подводящих частных железных дорог был предложен в 1912 году российскими предпринимателями Я. И. Уткиным, А. И. Вышнеградским, А. И. Гучковым, А. И. Геннертом и американским Г. Д. Хоффом. Вокзал должен был быть размещён на Охотном ряду между Софийским и Театральным проездами и обслуживать все идущие в Москву пассажирские поезда, а также грузовые поезда, направляющиеся к предприятиям в центре города.

В 1913 году Московская городская дума приняла решение о сооружении системы подземно-надземных линий для электропоездов пригородно-городского метрополитена без создания Центрального вокзала, план не был реализован из-за мировой войны и революции.

В 1919 году А. В. Щусев в проекте «Новая Москва» предлагал создать большой Центральный вокзал на основе станции «Каланчёвская» и присоединив к новому вокзалу также Ленинградский и Ярославский.

В дальнейшем проектов создания единого Центрального вокзала не предлагалось.

Ekaterina Siurina Headlines Historic 'Rusalka' at Pittsburgh Opera
By Francisco Salazar
The Pittsburgh Opera is set to open its 84th season with a historic production of "Rusalka."
The Dvořák work, which is known as the "Opera's Little Mermaid," will star Ekaterina Siurina in the title role alongside Marianne Cornetti, Hao Jiang Tian, Jonathan Burton, and Leah Hawkins.
The cast is rounded out by Julia Swan Laird, Emily Richter, Jazmine Olwalia, and Brandon Bell.
"Rusalka" premiered in 1901 and this production will mark the first-ever in Pittsburgh Opera's 84-year history. It will also mark the first Czech opera in the company's history.
Antony Walker will conduct the production by Kristine McIntyre.
The opera is set to open on Sept. 17 and run through Sept. 25 at the Benedum Center.
FRANCISCO SALAZAR, (Publisher) worked as a reporter for Latin Post where he has had the privilege of interviewing numerous opera stars including Anita Rachvelishvili and Ailyn Perez. He also worked as an entertainment reporter where he covered the New York and Tribeca Film Festivals and interviewed many celebrities such as Antonio Banderas, Edgar Ramirez and Benedict Cumberbatch. He currently freelances for Remezcla.
He holds a Masters in Media Management from the New School and a Bachelor's in Film Production and Italian studies from Hofstra University.


The purpose of this thread is to point out minor bugs and mistakes so we can be annoyed.
Okay. You can use certain abilities in the Tinkerer's Workshop, but not all.
Skuld used to have an introduction sentence for the final phase of Haunted Cemetery, now she just goes straight to "say ready whenever".
Speaking of which, the portal for said final phase says Final Rest while the loading screen says Final Battle.
Items dropping in places where you can't reach them. (i.e. Jugg in the deep water for Hermit).
Not sure if this trivial though, I'd sure as hell be pissed.
Is the sound for Unicorn's in Candyland fixed?
Yes. The creampuff also has comparable HP to the rest now.
When items get 'stuck' on your screen and you leave the area. If it's not in a particularly annoying place, I'm usually fine. Problem is when it's right in the middle and I have to restart.
Pets are too fat to pass through single-tile wide openings. I mean, c'mon, at least the babies should be able to pass. Only place I find this annoying is Oryx's Castle, when I can't get my pet on the Stone Guardians.
Sprite World moving tiles turn trippy when your memory becomes too high.
"shtrs The Cursed Crown" is the name of the object the Forgotten King spawns from.
"shtrs Laser#", where # is a number, are the names of the fire tentacles the king uses.
The Fire and Ice Portals spawned by the archmage are incorrectly named as Ice Sphere.
There are several areas in the Shatters that just turn into black tiles without any border or transition, which looks bad.
Lair of Shaitan lacks a bottom wall.
Unnecessary sand tiles in the lower part of the Ivory Wyvern room.
Blurred text and misaligned images in the mystery box descriptions.
I do believe that jugg drops from Sphinx sometimes are 'under' the portal and beside a column (this was somewhere on Reddit).
You're not supposed to be able to view another person's inventory. You're using a hacked client.
Their equipment inventory and HP/MP bar pop-up stops appearing when you mouse-over the name.
Are you admitting to using a hacked client? Because you can't turn off ally projectiles in the prod. client.
I think hes just trolling.
To be the most bestest you have to be the most smartest.
That was one sly edit right there.
Deca have fixed a few things in this thread… but theatre still has no portal of cowardice. And server list is in backwards order. Shameful.

The British Columbia Institute of Technology (also referred to as BCIT), is a public polytechnic institution of higher education. The post-secondary institute has five campuses located in the Metro Vancouver region, with its main campus in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada. There is also the Aerospace Technology Campus in Richmond, the Marine Campus in the City of North Vancouver, Downtown campus in Vancouver, and Annacis Island Campus in Delta. It is provincially chartered through legislation in the College and Institute Act.
BCIT was first established as the British Columbia Vocational School in 1960. When BCIT opened its Burnaby campus in 1964, initial enrollment was 498 students. As of 2013, enrollment has grown to 17,453 full-time students and 29,224 part-time students. Since its foundation, the institution has been home to over 125,000 alumni.
In 1960, the British Columbia Vocational School (BCVS) was established in Burnaby, opening at Willingdon and Canada Way. It was the first permanent trades school of its kind in British Columbia; its programs included carpentry, welding and aircraft maintenance. A year later, plans were announced to establish the British Columbia Institute of Technology on adjacent land. It was the first provincial institution dedicated to advanced technical education in BC, and its principal was named in 1962. It offered education in the areas of engineering, business and health, enrolling 498 students in 1964. In 1966, it celebrated its first graduates.

"Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)" is a song by UK duo Pet Shop Boys, released as a single in 1985 and then in 1986, gaining greater popularity in both the United Kingdom and United States with its second release, reaching number 11 in the UK Singles Chart and number 10 in the US Billboard Hot 100.
The song's indirect attack on its subject matter has come to exemplify the Pet Shop Boys as ironists in their songwriting.
The song was written during the Pet Shop Boys' formative years, in 1983. According to Neil Tennant, the main lyrical concept came while in a recording studio in Camden Town when Chris Lowe asked him to make up a lyric based around the line "Let's make lots of money". Tennant has said that he was somewhat inspired by the relationship between the characters of Dustin Hoffman and Jon Voight in the 1969 film Midnight Cowboy.
The first version of the song, recorded with the duo's first producer, Bobby Orlando, was not released; upon signing with record label Parlophone, they re-recorded the song with J. J. Jeczalik (of Art of Noise) and Nicholas Froome.

In the tactics and strategy in the board game of chess, an exchange (exchanging) or trade (trading) of chess pieces is series of closely related moves, typically sequential, in which the two players capture each other's pieces. Any types of pieces except the kings may possibly be exchanged, i.e. captured in an exchange, although a king can capture an opponent's piece. Either the player of the white or the black pieces may make the first capture of the other player's piece in an exchange, followed by the other player capturing a piece of the first player, often referred to as a recapture. Commonly, the word "exchange" is used when the pieces exchanged are of the same type or of about equal value, which is an even exchange. According to chess tactics, a bishop and a knight are usually of about equal value. If the values of the pieces exchanged are not equal, then the player who captures the higher value of piece(s) can be said to be up the exchange or wins the exchange, while the opponent who captures the lower value of piece(s) is down the exchange or loses the exchange. Exchanges occur very frequently in chess, in almost every game and usually multiple times per game. Exchanges are often related to the tactics or strategy in a chess game, but often simply occur over the course of a game.

Low Carbohydrate Diets: Take Them With a Grain of Salt, Part 1
James J. Kenney, Ph.D., R.D.
American Council on Science and Health
Date Published: Jan. 29, 2000
Does the relative ability of individual foods and diets to raise blood glucose have a unique or tremendous influence on human health?
According to four of the most popular diet books of recent years -- "The Zone" (1995), whose primary author is Barry Sears, Ph.D.; "Protein Power" (1997), by medical doctors Michael R. Eades and Mary Dan Eades; "Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution" (1997), by Robert C. Atkins, M.D.; and "Sugar Busters! Cut Sugar to Trim Fat" (1998), by H. Leighton Steward and associates -- diets high in carbohydrate, or CHO, are responsible for insulin increases that inhibit fat-burning and lead to obesity, type 2 diabetes (noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus) and atherosclerosis (specifically, coronary heart disease, or CHD). More recently, actress Suzanne Somers has joined the anti-CHO bandwagon, with "Suzanne Somers' Get Skinny on Fabulous Food" (1999).
A glycemic index, or GI, is the degree to which a food ingested alone increases the concentration of glucose in the blood comparative to a standard, such as white bread. The authors cited above profess that foods with high glycemic indexes -- foods whose ingestion rapidly results in high glucose concentrations - are the most dangerous foods, primarily because of the insulin response their digestion elicits. They further contend that diets relatively high in protein and/or fat are the key to reducing blood insulin, losing weight and improving health.
There is a grain of truth to what these authors say. The trend of scientific evidence from CHO research suggests that, at least for some individuals, both the total quantity and the proportion of the various carbohydrates in a diet may play a complex role in feeding behavior, metabolism and health. But consumers who entertain the assertions of diet-book authors must consider those assertions with more than a grain of salt. For example, the authors named above affirm that beets and carrots are fattening, which is absurd.
The Basis of the Glycemic Index
Glycemic indexes are based on the human physiologic response, in terms of plasma glucose concentrations, to ingestion of a food specimen that contains 50 grams of digestible CHO, comparative to the response to an equivalent intake of either glucose or white bread. The larger the blood-glucose increase, the higher the GI. GIs have been assigned to more than 600 foods, but the typical American supermarket carries over 6,000 foods. So it is likely that many people are regularly consuming many foods that have not been tested regarding GI. Moreover, cooking or otherwise preparing a food can alter its potential blood-glucose effects. As a rule, processing a nonprocessed food amplifies its ability to increase plasma glucose concentrations. In any case, the relationship of high-GI foods and/or a high-CHO diet to the development of obesity, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease has yet to be determined.
The Pima Paradox
Epidemiological studies have not lent much credence to the notion that high-CHO diets in general, or those consisting mostly of high-GI foods, lead to obesity, diabetes and CVD. The contention that the quantity or percentage of CHO in a diet, or the relative ability of individual foods or diets to increase plasma glucose concentrations, is the primary determinant in the development of obesity, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes is inconsistent with some observations of human populations. For example, although the diet of the Pima Indians living in northern Mexico consists largely of potatoes and corn tortillas -- both high-CHO, high-GI foods -- the Pimas weigh 60 to 65 pounds less than the Pima residents of Arizona, who consume much more protein and fat than do their Mexican cousins.
Foods high in protein and/or fat tend to have GIs below those of high-CHO foods. But by age 50 more than half of the Arizona Pimas become obese and develop type 2 diabetes, whereas among the Mexican Pimas type 2 diabetes is rare and occurs mostly among the elderly. Because the Mexican Pimas and the Arizona Pimas are of the same genetic stock, it is unlikely that genetic factors can account for this disparity. That the Mexican Pimas are much more physically active than their Arizonan counterparts is probably a crucial factor both in the diabetes disparity and in the body-weight disparity.
Scientific findings have positively associated diets high in fat, especially saturated fat, and in refined CHOs, particularly sugars, and the development of insulin resistance. On the other hand, high-complex CHO diets and improvement of sensitivity to insulin appear associated.
On Sept. 1, 1998, the American Heart Association released a report stating that diets very low in fat -- diets in which less than 15 percent of calories come from fat -- may carry serious health risks for some people and are not recommended for the public. The authors noted that, according to many research findings, very high CHO diets reduce blood HDL-cholesterol (a compound that tends to retard heart disease) and increase blood triglycerides more than do diets relatively high in unsaturated fat.
But in every study that has shown adverse effects of high-CHO diets on blood lipid concentrations, the high-CHO diet and the diet higher in fat were isocaloric, that is, equally restricted calorically. In similar studies without calorie controls, adverse effects have been minimal -- because for most people, calorie intakes on reduced-fat diets tend to be lower than those on diets with unmodified fat intakes. And in one study in which isocaloric diets were used, following the high-CHO diet, which had a low GI, did not result in a decrease in blood HDL-cholesterol or in an increase in blood triglycerides. Therefore, it is possible that high-CHO diets adversely affect blood lipid concentrations only when they consist largely of processed high-CHO, high-GI foods and one's calorie intake is at least that which one would have on a diet relatively high in fat.
Last year the American Diabetes Association rescinded its advocacy of high-CHO diets for all diabetics and took the stand that the composition of diabetic diets should be individualized. Because body weight, activity level, endogenous insulin output, degree of insulin resistance and risk factors for other diet-related diseases vary widely among diabetics, that their diets should be individualized almost goes without saying. The ADA's rescindment stemmed largely from short-term studies that had associated high-CHO diets (relative to diets higher in unsaturated fat), potentially adverse blood-lipid changes, and little or no improvement in sensitivity to insulin and in blood-glucose concentrations. But it was expected in these studies that the high-CHO diet intake would be calorically equal to the high-fat diet intake. Furthermore, the high-CHO diets in these studies consisted largely of highly processed CHO-rich foods, most of them high-GI foods. It is too early to generalize from the findings of such studies applicably to all type 2 diabetics.
The ADA does not recommend taking GIs into account in diabetic meal planning. It also has maintained that the cumulative GIs of mixed meals cannot be extrapolated reliably. The scientific evidence, however, suggests that such GIs can be dependably extrapolated. In any case, the ADA advises giving top precedence in the planning of diabetic diets to CHO quantity rather than to CHO sources.
Diabetes mellitus increases the risk of developing cardiovascular disease, and most type 2 diabetics in the United States are overweight. Thus, for most of them, top precedence should probably be given to the calorie content of the diet in conjunction with the diet's ability to satisfy the desire to eat. It appears that reducing the intake of calories, saturated fat, trans fatty acids, salt and cholesterol; and optimizing both fiber intake and exercising are each more important in type 2 diabetes than are the CHO quantity, CHO percentage and cumulative GI of the diet. With type 1 diabetics it is likely that regularity in daily CHO consumption in terms of quantity and sources helps to limit blood glucose concentrations.
The insulin score is a measure of bodily insulin output in response to ingestion of a food specimen of a specified caloric value, usually 250 kilocalories. The insulin scores and glycemic indexes, or GIs, of low-fat and low-protein foods correspond. Because CHO is absorbed only in the small intestine and dietary fat in the stomach slows gastric emptying, a mixed, high-fat meal will usually reduce the GIs of the high-CHO foods in it to which fat has been added. But while dietary fat tends to decrease the GIs of CHO-rich foods, it magnifies the insulin-output response to rises in plasma glucose. Therefore, the insulin scores of high-fat foods generally are much higher than those that their GIs might suggest. For example, the GI of ice cream, which is high in fat, is below that of carrots or potatoes, but the insulin scores of these three foods are similar.
Dietary protein attenuates but prolongs the glycemic response to a meal. This effect may be an advantage in cases of type 1 diabetes, in which large glycemic swings can make effective treatment more difficult. In nondiabetics, ingestion of protein and/or fat normally induces pancreatic emission of insulin. Ingestion even of foods containing little or no CHO elicits a fairly substantial insulin response despite having little effect on plasma glucose concentrations. It is simplistic to say that increasing consumption of fat and protein and decreasing CHO intake will dramatically reduce the need for insulin and/or reduce insulin secretion.
In any event, diminishing insulin responses does not, as some authors claim, prevent or diminish conversion of excessive energy from dietary CHO to fat or the storage of such fat. Excessive dietary energy from any source can become stored fat. In a six-week study of overweight type 2 diabetics, published in a 1992 issue of Diabetes Care, T. Wolever and colleagues found that following a calorically restricted, high-GI diet had resulted in about as much weight loss as had following an equally restricted low-GI diet.
The Satiety Index and GIs
In dietetics, "satiety" refers to the effects of a food or a meal on appetite after eating has concluded. One possible predictor of the calorie-intake and body-weight effects of the ingestion of various foods is how diminished one's desire for food is after consuming various foods at specific caloric levels. One such measure is the satiety index, or SI, which is based on subjects' grading of post-meal appetite satisfaction and on their calorie intake two hours after a standardized meal. Theoretically, a high-SI food would be likelier than low-SI foods to satiate one's desire to eat, slow the development of hunger and contribute to the prevention of excessive calorie intakes. It seems probable that a diet composed of higher-SI foods would limit hunger and thus facilitate limiting calorie intake and preventing weight gain.
The notion that a high-CHO, high-GI diet leads to obesity rests ultimately on the assumption that SIs and GIs correspond. Whether or not following a calorically unrestricted diet composed of higher-SI foods would have a long-term effect in limiting calorie intake remains to be seen. But that the potato, which is among the highest-GI foods, has the highest SI so far assigned is incompatible with the claim that consuming high-GI foods causes insulin-output excesses and thus leads to overeating. Indeed, other high-GI foods have SIs higher than those of many low-GI, high-fat foods.
The insulin output in response to a meal corresponds much more with the caloric value of the meal than with its cumulative GI or its ratio of CHO to fat or protein. There are no credible-research findings suggesting, as some popular diet book authors claim, that the consumption of beets, carrots, potatoes and other high-GI foods is conducive to obesity while the consumption of bacon and cheese omelets is not.
Energy Density, GIs and Satiety
In nutrition, the term "energy density" refers to the concentration of physiologically releasable energy in a food or group of foods of a specified weight. The energy density of the Arizona Pimas' diet is higher than that of the diet of their Mexican cousins. This energy density difference is partly responsible for the difference in the prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes between the two groups. Experiments have shown that humans consume high-CHO foods at caloric levels below those at which they consume fat-enriched versions of those foods, even when the high-CHO foods and their fat-enriched counterparts are equally palatable. But it has likewise been shown that, when the energy density of a calorically unrestricted high-fat diet and that of a calorically unrestricted diet higher in CHO are equal, calorie intakes do not necessarily differ between them. Indeed, clinical research has shown that energy density is primarily responsible for calorie-intake differences in calorically unrestricted diets -- both those low in fat (diets about 20 percent of whose calories come from fat) and those high in fat (diets about 40 percent of whose calories come from fat).
Of course, because adding fat to any food always increases the item's energy density and most naturally occurring high-fat foods have high energy densities, following a high-fat, low-energy density diet would be very difficult. Such a diet would consist largely of stir-fried vegetables and tofu.
The energy densities of fresh fruits and vegetables, nonfat dairy products, very lean animal-protein foods and many whole-grain foods vary from very low (65 kilocalories per pound) to moderate (550 kilocalories per pound). It is precisely because the energy densities of diets relatively high in fat are, in general, higher than those of diets relatively high in CHO that, irrespective of GIs, the former diets are greater contributors to calorie-intake excesses, weight gain and metabolic problems.
Both the GIs and the energy densities of most highly processed CHO-rich foods are high. Consuming CHO-rich foods whose energy densities are high is largely responsible for lack of satisfaction of the desire to eat. In the United States, high-GI foods -- for instance, "fat free" bakery products (most of whose energy densities are high) -- tend to have low SIs.
Madison Avenue has tried to make foods labeled fat free look nonfattening. It is reasonable to assume that experience with such products disillusioned many chronic dieters and disposed them toward low-CHO diet gurus, who condemn high-CHO diets across the board but particularly damn high-GI foods -- most of which have high energy densities. But the SI of a diet is a more important weight-control factor than is either GI or the percentage of calories from CHO.
There is some evidence that, at the same caloric level, dietary CHO, protein and fat promote appetite satisfaction to different respective degrees. Of these macronutrients, dietary fat has the least satiety value. But in a recent randomized six-month study of obese subjects on calorically unrestricted, "fat reduced" diets comparable in energy density, A. R. Skov and associates found that substituting protein for some of the CHO in a diet had led to significantly more weight loss than had nonsubstitution. This finding has not been replicated, however.
Substituting low-fat animal products or other foods relatively high in protein for some of the sugar and some of the highly processed CHO-rich foods in a diet might turn out advantageous for some individuals. But substantially increasing dietary protein can contribute to osteoporosis and reductions in kidney function. Until scientific research uncovers substantially more about the long-term effects of very-high-protein diets (diets at least 25 percent of whose calories come from protein), it would be inappropriate to recommend such diets for long-term weight management.
In a study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, K. H. Duncan and colleagues compared the respective effects of two calorically unrestricted diets on obese and non-obese subjects: a low-energy density (318 kilocalories per pound), high-fiber diet consisting primarily of minimally processed plant foods, and a high-energy density (681 kilocalories per pound), high-fat, low-fiber diet. The researchers found that, while both food acceptance and satiety ratings on the low-energy density diet had been equivalent to such acceptance and ratings on the high-energy density diet, calorie intake on the low-energy density diet had been about half of that on the high-energy density diet.
Exercising even relatively briefly can moderate insulin resistance for about 24 hours. Exercising reduces liver and muscle supplies of glycogen, the main form in which carbohydrates are stored in humans, and thus results in rapid uptake of blood sugar by these tissues. The muscles of sedentary persons are full of glycogen and thus resist insulin. Research has also shown that, on unrestricted diets, activity increases do not automatically lead to corresponding increases in calorie intake. This may be the main reason that relatively active persons are less likely to gain weight or to develop insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes than are relatively sedentary persons.
High-CHO Diets, High-GI Diets and CHD
Solid scientific research has linked hyperinsulinemia due to insulin resistance and an increase in the risk of developing ischemic heart disease, or IHD, characterized by atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries. Such research has led to speculation that high-GI foods may promote IHD. The Nurses' Health Study has uncovered a positive correlation of high GIs and women's risk of having a heart attack. Another study, published last year in The Lancet, associated a diet relatively high in high-GI foods and relatively low serum HDL-cholesterol concentrations.
However, it is simplistic to claim that consumption of high-GI foods results in hyperinsulinemia and thus leads to adverse changes in blood lipid concentrations and to atherosclerosis. For example, findings from a study published in The Journal of the American College of Cardiology in 1998 suggest that large insulin outputs promote coronary atherosclerosis only when they are very disproportionate to increases in blood glucose levels -- as occurs, largely because of insulin resistance, in type 2 diabetes and syndrome X (a combination of hyperlipidemia, hypertension, obesity and type 2 diabetes). The researchers found that insulin resistance is a risk factor for IHD. They also found, however, that without insulin resistance, relatively high blood insulin concentrations were not associated with an increase in the risk of developing IHD.
In a study published in 1997 in a supplement to The Canadian Journal of Cardiology, researchers found that even without weight loss, following a calorie-controlled, high-CHO diet composed largely of minimally processed, high-fiber foods -- comparative to following a calorically equal diet characterized by more processed foods -- had resulted in a decrease in blood triglyceride concentrations. They concluded: "[T]here appear to be important cardiovascular benefits from choosing a plant based diet over a convenience-food based diet for meeting national dietary guidelines. ..."
Unlike most simple sugars, fructose, a very sweet sugar that occurs especially in fruit juices and honey, has a low GI, but research has shown that, compared to starch (whose GI is high), dietary fructose raises blood LDL-cholesterol, an excess of which is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. There is also scientific evidence that sucrose (commonly used as table sugar), whose GI is lower than the GIs of many high-starch foods, increases blood concentrations of cholesterol and triglycerides when it replaces dietary starch; and that, when they replace dietary sucrose, vegetables and whole grains improve blood lipid concentrations.
Nutrition scientists recognize that GI is not the only characteristic of high-CHO foods responsible for how they affect blood lipid concentrations and cardiovascular disease risk.
Credible scientific evidence is absent for the claim that a diet relatively high in protein and fat and consisting only of low glycemic-index foods is the key to preventing and treating obesity, type 2 diabetes and ischemic heart disease. It has, however, become increasingly apparent that the types of carbohydrate are ample in one's diet can affect the desire to continue eating; calorie intake; body weight; and blood concentrations of glucose, insulin and lipids -- and probably the risk of developing type 2 diabetes and IHD.
Taking GIs into account may be somewhat useful, particularly in planning meals for diabetics. But in general it appears that the best diet for preventing and treating obesity, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease is one that:
Is high in minimally processed whole-grain foods -- for example, brown rice, cooked whole-grain cereals, corn and whole-wheat pasta;
Is high in fruits, vegetables and starchy foods such as beans, lentils, peas and potatoes;
Includes nonfat dairy products in moderate quantities; and
Includes, in small quantities, seafood and/or very lean poultry or meat.

No one is an island. Not even a free-spirited, independent motorcycle rider. The relationship between motorcycle and rider teaches us how to create healthy, interdependent relationships.
Without a rider, the bike just sits there. And without a bike, the rider walks. Or finds another form of transportation, which can't help but pale in comparison to the joy and exhilaration of a motorcycle ride.
Boundaries. Like a motorcycle and rider, each partner is a distinct being with clear, healthy boundaries. Each has their own source of power, origin and ability to function independently.
Uniqueness. Like a motorcycle and rider, each partner has own identifiable characteristics and needs. A motorcycle is a very different entity than its rider. It looks different and operates in a completely different manner. Even though you're headed in the same direction, riding a motorcycle any distance teaches you that the needs of both partners must be met if the relationship is going to go anywhere. Click to tweet quote.
Common Ground. Unique in your own right, you are drawn together by a common purpose, cause or passion. You still have interests outside the relationship, but unite for a specific reason.
Synergy. Coming together to create a third distinct being, i.e. the partnership, your energy, strength and effectiveness are far greater than the sum of the parts. This radiates beyond the time you're together, leaving a legacy trail. Whether the relationship is personal or professional, synergy is an unmistakable byproduct of an interdependent relationship.
Responsiveness. One partner's desires cannot take precedence at the expense of the other. Quite often they're not on the same schedule, but if one has an immediate need, it must be addressed. If your bike needs refueling, you got to stop and gas up. If you need a break, even though your bike's gas tank may be full, it's time to pull off the road.
Communication. It takes effort from both parties to communicate in a manner that gets the point across, enhances effectiveness and averts misunderstandings. Accomplish this through active listening, focus in the moment, attention to nonverbal signals and remaining open to the needs and desires of the other.
Awareness. As you get to know each other, you become more cognizant of the other's strengths and shadows. If you're open and receptive, by understanding each other, you also learn about yourself. This enables you to grow both as an individual and as an individual and as a partnership.
Tolerance. Riding a motorcycle is not always comfortable. Nor are relationships. There are times when you need to be willing to tolerate discomfort to get to your destination, as long as safety isn't compromised. Patience, compassion, focusing on common ground and keeping your eye on the goal will get you there.
Evolution. As unique beings, you have your own life path, part of which you share. Recognize that change in one party affects the dynamics of the relationship and the road can get rough while things are resolved. As you gain awareness, self-confidence and trust in your partner, you naturally evolve to more challenging roads and situations. Your experiences together become richer and more gratifying.
An interdependent relationship is far more fulfilling than one where partners are independent, dependent or co-dependent. Looking for these characteristics and applying them to your own close relationships enriches your life, your Road and those you share it with.

Baby with Down syndrome is a model in the UK
from Life Site News:
When Gemma Andre submitted photos of her young daughter, Taya, to a UK modeling agency at the urging of a family member, she didn't say anything about the fact that Taya was born with Down syndrome.
"No one asked the question, 'Is your child disabled?' So I didn't mention it," Gemma told the Daily Mail recently.
Even after the ad agency, Urban Angels, phoned Andre and told her that Taya had made the first cut, and they would like to meet her personally, Gemma stayed mum on her daughter's condition.
"I didn't want her to be chosen as the token disabled child. If she was going to be picked, then it had to be on her own merit," she says.
It turns out that Gemma didn't have to be worried: after going in for a photo shoot with Urban Angels, Taya was chosen as one of the few lucky child models for the agency.
"When the agency rang me and said, 'We want her on our books. She's absolutely beautiful', I was delighted," says Gemma.
"I asked them if they were aware she had Down's Syndrome. They said: 'It's immaterial. We've accepted her.'" At that moment, says Gemma, she burst into tears.
"I was overjoyed, not so much because Taya was going to be a model. More importantly, she had competed on equal terms with every other child and succeeded."
According to Alysia Lewis, owner of Urban Angels, "Taya is an incredibly photogenic, warm and smiley child, and that shines through in her photographs."
"That she has Down's syndrome did not enter the equation. We chose her because of her vibrancy and sense of fun."
"The standard is high [for selection by Urban Angels]," says Lewis, "the desire for places strong. Taya is one of 50 children we chose from 2,000 applicants."
Taya's story is a rare tale of non-prejudice at a time when in many Western countries more than 90% of children born with Down syndrome in utero never get the chance to see the light of day – instead being aborted in the womb in a modern-day resurrection of eugenics.
But for her part, Gemma says she never even considered getting the tests done that might have revealed her daughter's condition, since she and her partner had resolved "to love whatever child they were blessed with," in the words of the Daily Mail reporter.
However, she does confess that it came as a blow when, shortly after birth, the doctor announced that Taya probably had Down syndrome.
"From that moment I was mourning for the child I hadn't had," she said. "We couldn't help but selfishly wonder why this had happened to us. We weren't prepared for it. We couldn't celebrate. We felt numb and grief-stricken; just devastated."
However, since then Gemma says she has not only adjusted to her daughter's condition, but has come to embrace it.
"I am determined Taya will have as many chances in life as any other child," she says. "I want her to go to dancing school. She loves music and has a sense of rhythm; she sways and claps her hands when I sing to her."
"When people say 'poor you' I find it offensive and irritating. The way I see it, some people cannot even have children and God has given me this special child."
from The Stir:
Taya Kennedy is rocking the modeling world. The 14-month-old's mother submitted her pictures to a top British modeling agency, and soon after she got a call saying they liked what they saw. A photo shoot followed, and Taya has since been lining up the gigs as advertisers are drawn to her bright smile and natural chemistry with the camera.
It's your typical baby modeling story, only Taya isn't typical -- she was born with Down syndrome. The agency says that, however, has nothing to do with why they or advertisers love her; her mother says it has nothing to do with what she will accomplish in life. It's an inspirational story all around.
Alysia Lewis, owner of the agency that signed Taya, told the Daily Mail:
That she has Down's Syndrome did not enter the equation. We chose her because of her vibrancy and sense of fun. Not all children are comfortable in front of a lens and with a photographer looking at them — especially when they are so young. But Taya was so relaxed and happy. She was just what we were looking for.
When you look at the gorgeous pictures of Taya, you see nothing but a beautiful child. Any limitations that she may face are nowhere evident, and she's such an amazing reminder of the beauty -- both internal and external -- in faces that many deem tragic.
Her mother, Gemma Andre, told the paper that people often feel sorry for her when they learn Taya has Down syndrome, but she sees her daughter as a gift. She said at birth, she was given a list of all the things Taya wouldn't be able to do and delays she would encounter. One by one though Taya is busting through them all and appears to show no sign of slowing down.
I love this story for so many reasons, but one is that because, big or small, all children face challenges and limitations in life. We hope and pray for them to be perfect or "normal," but just because they aren't by medical definitions doesn't mean they aren't in other ways. And really, no matter what challenges they face, the best thing we can do as parents and as citizens is to focus on what they can do instead of what they can't do and accept them. As Andre said:
With Taya you get the whole package: she has her difficulties, but she is clever, strong, and she laughs all the time. She has such an expressive little face. People say, "Don't you wish she was a normal child?" but without her disability she wouldn't be Taya, so we wouldn't change anything about her.
I hope to see her on the cover of Vogue one day.
