Sorting the Real Sandy Photos From the Fakes
Alexis C. Madrigal
With Hurricane Sandy approaching the New York metro area, the nation's eyes are turning to its largest city. Photos of storms and flooding are popping up all over Twitter, and while many are real, some of them -- especially the really eye-popping ones -- are fake.
This post, which will be updated over the next couple of days, is an effort to sort the real from the unreal. It's a photograph verification service, you might say, or a pictorial investigation bureau. If you see a picture that looks fishy, send it to me at alexis.madrigal[at]gmail.com. If you like this sort of thing, you should also visit istwitterwrong.tumblr.com, which is just cataloging the fakes.
The fakes come in three varieties: 1) Real photos that were taken long ago, but that pranksters reintroduce as images of Sandy, 2) Photoshopped images that are straight up fake, and 3) The combination of the first two: old, Photoshopped pictures being trotted out again.
[Update, 10:30am: Alexis is at a conference this morning, so your morning photo-verification crew -- Atlantic social media editor Chris Heller, IsTwitterWrong's Tom Phillips, and I (Megan Garber) -- are taking over for the moment. Keep your submissions coming! You can send them to me at mgarber[at]theatlantic.com. --Megan]
Parler's Rise Was Also Its Downfall

'Secure the Capitol' Misses the Point

This image of NYC -- and of, yes, a double rainbow -- made the rounds on social media this morning. (It was helped along by a Facebook post from none other than George Takei.)
And ... it's legit! The image is an Instragram dated this morning. It was taken by Kurt Wilberding, a professional photographer who shoots for the Wall Street Journal.
You can see other takes on the same rainbow scene, also dated this morning, at the Mild Amusements Tumblr.
Less legit, unfortunately, is this wondrous image.
You so want it to be real ... but it is not. Or, at least, it's not real when it comes to Sandy. The image, best we can tell, dates from December 2011. It was taken in the Philippines during Tropical Storm Washi.
Here, on the other hand, is one you don't want to be real ... but it is.
Here's another, clearer shot of the Seaside Heights roller coaster -- different angle, same scene -- sent from Brian Thompson, who covers New Jersey for NBC News's local New York affiliate. And here's a statement from New Jersey governor Chris Christie confirming Seaside Heights's Boardwalk devastation and mentioning that "the roller coaster or the log flume is in the ocean." Sigh.
And this is an image Gate C34 of New York's LaGuardia Airport. It's been getting lots of action on Facebook and Twitter.
So the image is most likely a real one. It's been posted by JetBlue's blog. There are corroborating images -- including one sent from the Twitter account of the New York/New Jersey Port Authority -- that make clear visually what we know from news reports: that LaGuardia is, indeed, flooded. A high-res version of the C34 photo has been posted to Facebook by a fellow who seems to be a pilot.
Then again, that pilot -- after a cancelled flight due to Sandy -- was in Phoenix yesterday, according to another Facebook post, so it's unclear how he could have gotten to LaGuardia to take the photo himself given the airport's suspension of air traffic. Almost certainly, he's sharing an image he got somewhere else -- best evidenced by the lower-quality version of a similar image that was posted to Facebook several hours before the pilot's.
Also, we're not 100 percent sure that the photo originated with JetBlue. It's a tiny point, but as far as we can tell, JetBlue is served by Terminal B at LaGuardia, rather than Terminal C. So it's (a tiny bit) strange that JetBlue would be, itself, taking pictures of a gate that it doesn't use. Then again, it could just be that cabin-feverish airport workers and stranded travelers are roving the place, terminal by terminal -- and that this was the photo that the JetBlue folks chose to share.
Either way, we can't say for sure what the source of the image is at this point. So while it's likely the real thing, we'll call it "Unverified" for now, and will update when we find out more. If you have any tips, please do send them along.
Meanwhile, here's another verified photo:
The image isn't a still from a Christopher Nolan movie; instead it's a Reuters picture of the skyline of lower Manhattan shrouded in storm-induced darkness. That one lucky, lighted building? The Goldman Sachs headquarters. Though power outages encompassed everything from 14th Street on down -- and though the building at 200 West Street falls within that zone -- the building made use of a generator to keep the lights on. (Or to keep the power on, as it were.) This move was, unsurprisingly, controversial.
It's worth noting (Alexis here!) that part of the reason this photo is so striking is that it is very dark and the contrast is very high on the image. I took a look at other skyline photos of New York from earlier in the year and found that it wasn't that hard to make the Goldman building look ridiculously lit up by just pushing the contrast up and the brightness down. Like this:
I also found that if you took the Goldman image above and performed the opposite operation -- increasing the brightness, decreasing the contrast, the building didn't look quite so awkwardly bright in the early morning light.
Does this all make the Reuters photo less real? No. But it's a good reminder that the reality a photograph captures is always subject to the vagaries of lens and light. Small tweaks in the way you capture light can lead to very different images. (If you'd like a deeper reflection, I'd refer to Errol Morris.)
Also verified is this incredible image of a tanker washed up last night on the shores of Staten Island.
And ... yes, it is real. Here's video from last night's ABC Eyewitness News broadcast showing the tanker at rest. The journalists heard a report of the tanker's grounding; they sent reporter Michelle Charlesworth down to check it out for herself. She was greeted with a scene that, save for being actual, was incredible. "We just couldn't believe it," Charlesworth said in her broadcast. "It looks like something out of a movie."
This is an easy one: this scuba diver in a flooded Times Square station was trotted out before the storm. Gizmodo (which is down) had it up at 11:05am. It's fake. At best, think of it as an artist's conception.
Everything about the lit-up Jane's Carousel pictures from Dumbo scream fake. One, the carousel is gorgeous. Two, it's lit up like a beacon amidst the dark of the flood waters. Why are the lights on? Three, it seems difficult to get this photograph from that area. Shouldn't the photographer have evacuated?
Well, yes, it turns out. Anna Dorfman, a book designer who lives in Dumbo, took this photo shortly before evacuating. She's confirmed that she took it. Another Instagram user and Dumbo resident, Ana Adjelic, also posted a photo of the carousel from a different angle. And we also got independent confirmation from a journalist Jeff Howe that another friend who lives in the area had sent him similar photographs. These may be the most improbable and striking images of the night, and they are real. There will be moments of serendipity and islands of beauty amidst any storm.
Here's an meme that's been resurrected. This seal survived the Duluth Zoo flood earlier this year. He's now being trotted out as a "wide-eyed seal" that appeared in Manhattan. Do not be fooled. This is not from Sandy.
This 86th Street Station photo seems dubious. Brendan Cain laid out the case against the photo. "Track trough shouldn't be that opaque. It's not *that* deep," he wrote to me. He also noted that Broadway and 86th is 77 feet above sea level, much higher than downtown areas.
But, the origin of the photo is an Instagram user named ninjapito, who hashtagged his posts, #brooklyn. If it does turn out to be real, it is most likely a picture of the 86th Street Station out in Brooklyn. I'm keeping this one at unverified, but it is definitely *not* a photograph of the 86th Street station in Manhattan. Stay tuned for updates.
Ok, update 1:32am: Mashable Stephanie Haberman notes that the geotag on the Instagram photo is 9.5 miles away from the 86th Street station at which it was supposedly taken. Suspicious. Consider that circle down there to be closer to orange than yellow.
Dang, update 1:33am: Countervailing evidence! Brooklynite @RoseTintedVisor reports that the N line is, in fact, inundated with water, including the station near his house further down the line. "It looks like a fucking river," he told me. He also pointed me to another photo showing the N as waterway.
Update, 1:51am: @RoseTintedVisor delivered pics of his own from further down the N line. It looks bad.
Buzzfeed posted a shocking image of FDR Drive underwater without clear provenance although in the square style of Instagram. Our social media editor, Chris Heller, followed up on that video with a YouTube clip that clearly shows the road near the E 34th St exit under water. (That user, Ethan Ruttenberg has posted a series of videos of FDR under water to his YouTube account.) It's not a perfect verification, but even if someone took the time to create an elaborate fake, the reality outside is equally as bad.
I'm sad to report that this is as real as it gets. The photo below is an official Associated Press photograph by John Minchillo.
Risk management experts have warned that New York's subway infrastructure could flood. Still, this photo was one of the most suspect I've seen so far. Sadly, it turns out to be real. It shows water rushing into the Hoboken PATH station through an elevator shaft. The Port Authority of New York & New Jersey just tweeted it from an official account. This actually happened.
Here we see massive flooding in Stuy Town at 20th and C. At first I was suspicious of this photo, but it appears to have been taken by Sriram Satish, an NYU Stern student who lives in that area. I haven't been able to reach Satish, I reached Satish and he says that a friend of his posted it to Facebook, but that he's been in contact with that person and considers it verified. (The context provided in his Twitter feed also gives me confidence that this is a real photograph, i.e. he is a real person living in this area of New York.) It's also important to understand the geographical context of this photo. Though it looks like it was taken in the middle of the city, the East River is very, very close to where the photograph was taken. Take a look for yourself in Google Street View (That's the reverse shot of the image below.) So, it's plausible that this level of flooding could take place there.
Update: More confirmation of this level of flooding. Christopher Confessore emailed me this video, which was posted to the tenants' association. I'd say that's incontrovertible.
The latest photo to circulate on social media is a building that collapsed on 8th Ave in Manhattan. It is real. It was posted by journalist Meg Robertson, who has confirmed she took the photo and has posted several follow ups from the scene. (At least one other person near the building has also posted photographs.)
Here's a photo of a shark purportedly swimming in the streets of Brigantine, New Jersey, a city which has experienced serious flooding. This photo is fake. The shark fin was Photoshopped into the image of the city. Tom Phillips found the source shark fin in a Google Image Search, which I've overlaid on the original fake image in the GIF below.
This image popped up while we were researching a *different* supposed shark photo from Brigantine, which we have not been able to verify one way or the other. Though we've found no evidence to indicate that the photo below is fake, we're suspicious because of the number of times fake shark photos have cropped up during floods. The photo below was originally posted by Kevin McCarty, who appears to live in that town. This is a complicated situation because McCarty posted both of these photographs, one of which we now know to be fake, and on the Facebook thread for that image, people call out his Photoshop skills. It's still possible, all these hours later, that the photo below is real and McCarty decided to have some fun with the picture above, or that they are both fakes.
UPDATE 10/30 2:44pm: Mystery solved! It's a fake; a very craftily created Photoshopping job. Snopes tracked down the original photograph. The original on Flickr was taken in 2006 in South Africa.
For fun, I overlaid the source photograph on the image of flooded New Jersey, so you can see how the job worked.
This photo of the George Washington Bridge was taken in 2009 and is sold on Getty Images, Eliot Bentley points out.
Here we see an example of the third variety: an old, Photoshopped image that's been cropped up for more than half a decade. This Statue of Liberty shot was actually created by merging a supercell image from Nebraska with one from New York. Snopes had long ago done the investigation on this.
Here we see midtown Manhattan in a real photograph ... taken in 2011. This photograph first ran in the Wall Street Journal, as sleuthed by IsTwitterWrong.
Here we see the Old Guard, which guards the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The photograph is absolutely real, but it was taken in September, as the Old Guard's Twitter feed has been pointing out this afternoon.
Not every stunning image is fake, though. Here's one from Red Hook, a Brooklyn neighborhood. The person who took this photograph, Nick Cope, has confirmed that it was taken today. And there is corroborating evidence both from local officials and journalists that Red Hook streets are flooding, particularly in this warehouse district (which I actually know well).
Updates (These Will Be Rolling)
Below, we see a still from movie, The Day After Tomorrow, which has had a New York TV logo superimposed on it to fool people.
@twitsplosion sent in this photo of Times Square, which has also been making the rounds. Unfortunately, it's a ZUMA Press image from August 2011.
The next two pics are both from Atlantic City. I haven't been able to track down the provenance of either, but I think they pass the plausibility test. The first was posted by Weatherboy Weather on Facebook with credit to an unlinked man, Dann Cuellar.
UPDATE, 9:14pm: Ok, mystery solved! The original Facebook poster misspelled Cuellar's name as 'Dan Cuellar.' Dann Cuellar is a reporter with WPVI in Philadelphia. It turns out, as we hypothesized, that it was taken from the Flagship Hotel. (We got there by noting that it was quite similar to this image geotagged from that same spot, although minus the flooding, of course). Cuellar's Twitter page has various other shots from the same location.
One of the reasons I'm willing to do so is that other photographs from the early high tide in Atlantic City corroborate that this area of the city was badly flooded. With Bing Maps, I was able to view the streets in this area and find plausible vantage points from which the photos could have been taken. (Google Maps did not have coverage of the area for some reason.) There is a tall building in just about the precise location that this photograph would have to be taken from. So, again, I'm wouldn't bet my life on it, but I think there is a very good change this photograph is real. If it's not, you should probably hire its creator for your next CGI spectacular.
And finally, Garance Franke-Ruta sent this one over, which didn't take too much investigation.
Thanks to @nathanjurgenson, @edyong209, @discoverymag, @neve_science_wx, @kathyf, @KateRoseMe, @harmonicait, @NigadamaSoup, and @sebprovencher for their help rounding up images.

VIDEO: Bay State trade group hands out awards at conference

Larry Russo (left), of MarineMax Russo, presented the Frank Farrell Award to Richard "Dick" Egan of Crosby Yacht Yard during the Massachusetts Marine Trade Association's annual conference.
BROCKTON, Mass. — The Frank Farrell Award was presented to Richard "Dick" Egan, president of Crosby Yacht Yard Inc., on Thursday during the Massachusetts Marine Trade Association's annual conference.
"It was my life, really, other than my business and my family," Egan said Thursday of his work with the MMTA, which was the reason he received the award. "I feel very rewarded to have been nominated for this recognition. I really appreciate it very, very much. For all those out there who don't know me, I wish you did because this industry is my life."
Egan's father entered the industry in 1945 as the founder of Bay State Boat Co. on the Charles River, said Larry Russo of MarineMax Russo, who presented the award, which is named for MMTA founder Frank Farrell.
"His son, our recipient today, was president of the MMTA for several years, ending in 1977, and thereafter has served on the board of directors for 35 consecutive years," Russo said. "He has been at the table for every significant contract, agreement, milestone and event in the history of this organization."
Egan and his family, in its fourth generation in the industry, now own and operate a legacy business on Cape Cod that was founded in 1850.
"He has lived it all. He has seen it all," Russo said. "For most of that time I've been at his elbow listening, learning and helping when I could."
Ed Lofgren was recognized by the Marine Retailers Association of the Americas for his years as president of the MRAA Educational Foundation; an engraved compass was presented at the Marine Dealer Conference & Expo in Florida in December, but Lofgren was unable to attend. He accepted the compass on Thursday.
"His particular focus: solving today's technician shortage," said MRAA educational vice president Liz Walz at the MDCE event, which was presented on video Thursday. "He wasn't shy about giving us a shove there, too. He's responsible for bringing the MRAA Workforce Assessment Study to life. He has had a huge impact on the MRAA and MRAA Educational Foundation."
Karen Tibbets (left) accepted the Legislator of the Year Award on behalf of state Sen. Bruce Tarr, R-Mass. The award was presented by lawyer Jamy Buchanan Madeja, who addressed the conference on the topic of sexual harassment.
"When Lofgren announced he was retiring from his position as president of the foundation this year, we found ourselves grateful for his long service and mentorship," Walz said.
John Irwin, of Irwin Marine, presented the compass, listing words that come to his mind that embody Lofgren: "humble, passionate, visionary, with a very, very loud roar," Irwin said. "I would call on everybody to pick up the same call that Ed has come to" in his service of the industry.
Lofgren read the inscription on the compass: "In Recognition of Your Long and Devoted Service to and Outstanding Leadership of the Marine Retailers Association of the Americas and the MRAA Educational Foundation."
Karen Tibbets accepted the Legislator of the Year Award on behalf of state Sen. Bruce Tarr, R-Mass., for his work with the marine industry on issues such as workforce development.
"There really is no more deserving legislator than Senator Tarr," Tibbets said.

In 1971, President Richard Nixon declared the beginning of the "war on drugs," which set in motion the proliferation of draconian sentencing laws for drug-related offenses and contributed to a new era of mass incarceration. More than forty years later, many experts now agree that the war on drugs, which cost taxpayers trillions of dollars, completely failed to stem drug use or promote public safety. Fortunately, there are signs that the nation has begun to shift away from the misguided drug war. More Americans now see drug offenses as a public health crisis, and not simply a problem that can be solved through the criminal justice system.
Against this backdrop, thousands of Americans are struggling with addiction to opioids, and experts agree that a number of cities and towns across the country are enduring an opioid epidemic. In light of this serious opioid problem and the important lessons from the failed drug war, community leaders, law enforcement, and health care workers are coming together to rely on proven methods like drug treatment, education and the availability of naloxone to help those who are afflicted.
Not everyone is willing to leave the drug war behind, however. In three counties, elected prosecutors are responding to the opioid crises by charging tragic heroin overdoses as murder. Here is a snapshot of this troubling trend.
One evening, 27-year-old Lindsay Newkirk and her father shared heroin. When Newkirk woke the next morning, her father had overdosed and died. Franklin County Prosecuting Attorney Ron O'Brien's office charged Newkirk with involuntary manslaughter. O'Brien has prosecuted at least seven people who sold heroin to people who later overdosed for involuntary manslaughter this year alone under an initiative he has named the "heroin-overdose-death-project." While O'Brien claims he is going after "dealers" and sending "users" to treatment, his definition of a "dealer" is broad enough to encompass someone purchasing heroin for a friend or someone just supporting a habit. In 2015, O'Brien charged 26-year-old Jamie Maynard with involuntary manslaughter for selling heroin to Courtney Penix in a shopping center parking lot. Penix went across the street and overdosed an hour later in a store bathroom. Maynard had sold Penix a gram of heroin and now faces up to 19 years in prison.
Joe Deters, the Prosecuting Attorney of Hamilton County, is no stranger to obtaining homicide convictions in drug overdose cases. While he casts many of these cases as prosecutions of hard-core drug dealers, in fact, at least some of the cases involve friends providing heroin to other friends. In 2014, he filed the first indictment ever in Hamilton County charging an overdose as homicide. In this case, two neighbors, one of whom was a cousin, sold heroin to a young woman who overdosed and died.
In another case, a man named Kenneth Gentry pled guilty to involuntary manslaughter for selling heroin that was used by another man to overdose. Gentry expressed remorse during his court hearing and admitted that he sold small amounts out of his personal stash because he was struggling with addiction.
Anthony Gulluni, the District Attorney of Hampden County charged Seth Lombard-Hawthorne this year with the death of a teenage girl because he had provided her heroin that she used to overdose. According to the victim's mother, Lombard-Hawthorne was a co-worker; they had started using heroin together.
Certainly, the opioid epidemic will require attention from multiple community figures, including law enforcement. But, using the law as a sledgehammer to punish fellow addicts only compounds the tragedy and fails to learn from the lessons of the failed "war on drugs." There must be a better way than turning one tragedy into two.


2. What colour should our dragon be and why?
3. Can the dragon be standing on two legs?
4. Should the dragon have wings or not?
5. How can we include a heart in the design?
6. We must ensure our design is simple, bold and easily identified!
The two halves of our badge committee are going to take some time over half term to consider these points and think about how they want the designs to look. After half term we will be inviting everyone to submit their ideas before we all meet up as one committee. Our next meeting will also be attended by an artist who will help us coordinate and present our ideas as a badge.
With the New Year came a new role, new colleagues and the exciting challenge of working towards the formation of a brand new school. After meeting the head teachers and governing bodies of each school it was time to meet the newly formed temporary governing body. Llantwit Major Comprehensive School have been very supportive with providing a venue for us to use and also with providing me a base in Llantwit Major.
One of our first jobs for the new school was to establish a name.We formed a 'Naming Committee' comprising of children, staff and parent representatives. The group decided upon a number of criteria that they felt was important to consider when deciding upon the new name. They worked closely with the School Councils and organised the gathering of ideas and names over several weeks. I would like to thank everyone for the wonderful suggestions. Following the final meeting the group presented their shortlist to governors Mr David Thomas and Mr Mick Mason to help with the final decision. The next step was to propose it to the Local Authority and wait for their approval.
It translates as The Dragon School. Although we are not a Welsh medium school, it was clear to see the importance that everyone involved put into suggesting such a range of Welsh language names. One of the children's criteria for our new name was that it should clearly have a 'Welshness' factor. All of those involved in the final decision were happy that our name clearly demonstrates 'pride and place' as a school in Wales.

Q: Units in Rect class I have 854X480 android screen size.
But, when I use drawRect(new Rect(0, 0, 570, 320), null) this will fit the entire screen.
MainActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends Activity
{
  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
  {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(new MainLayout(this));
  }
}
class MainLayout extends RelativeLayout
{
  public MainLayout(Context context)
  {
    super(context);
    setWillNotDraw(false);
  }
  @Override
  public void onDraw(Canvas canvas)
  {
    super.onDraw(canvas);
    setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
    Paint paint = new Paint();
    paint.setColor(Color.BLACK);
    canvas.drawRect(new Rect(0, 0, 570, 320), paint);
  }
}

Shouldn't it be canvas.drawRect(new Rect(0, 0, 854, 480), paint) that will fit entire screen?
Why does the unit I use in Rect class ((570, 320) in this case) differ from my screen size?

A: I think that's because you are hardcoding pixels, that fit for one screen. Better way would be to scale them according to device density. Here is the method for that.
public static int convertDpToPixel(float dp) {
    return (int) (dp * (DEVICE_DENSITY_DPI / 160f));
}

Define DEVICE_DENSITY_DPI as a global object at Application level as:
DisplayMetrics metrics = new DisplayMetrics();
WindowManager windowManager = (WindowManager)getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE);
windowManager.getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(metrics);

DEVICE_DENSITY_DPI = metrics.densityDpi;

Then, use it as follows:
class MainLayout extends RelativeLayout
{
  final int WIDTH = convertDpToPixel(570);
  final int HEIGHT = convertDpToPixel(320);

  public MainLayout(Context context)
  {
    super(context);
    setWillNotDraw(false);
  }

  @Override
  public void onDraw(Canvas canvas)
  {
    super.onDraw(canvas);
    setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
    Paint paint = new Paint();
    paint.setColor(Color.BLACK);
    canvas.drawRect(new Rect(0, 0, WIDTH, HEIGHT), paint);
  }
}

Now the values will automatically change according to the device width and height, also make sure to layout MainLayout with attributes match_parent.
Hope that helps. :)

This website is about the recipes, diet tips and exercises that helped me lose 98lbs and keep it off.
3 years ago, I got the scare I needed to realise that something needed to change. I was having health problems, mainly heart related, due to my weight and it was affecting my life. As I was only young, that should not of been happening to me. I shouldn't have been missing out on all the things my friends were doing just because I couldn't control what I was eating. I was an emotional eater, and that needed to change.
I started small, cutting out junk, processed foods and stopped getting takeaways. I gave up alcohol for 6 months (which really helped kick start the weight loss) and I started cooking everything from scratch. Also, I had never really cooked before, I was just putting things in the oven, or turning the microwave on. When out shopping, I started buying fresh foods, some I had never tried or even heard of before. I changed the taste of things with herbs and spices, rather than covering it with fatty sauces and I discovered a love of cooking. I actually became pretty good at it. After 6 months, of not really trying, but just cooking more healthily, I had lost 40lbs. I hit a plateau at that point and I knew I had to kick it up a gear, and that meant exercise.
Again, I started slowly, as I knew that I couldn't just head out and run a 5K. I got a Wii Fit and did some gentle yoga everyday. Not only was it stretching my muscles, ones I didn't even know I had, but it was relaxing me too. It was great for my mental health and that was something that really helped with my emotional eating. I then started going swimming too. It is a gentle exercise that doesn't put too much pressure on your joints, which is perfect if you are overweight, and it is a brilliant cardio workout. I moved out of the plateau and the weight started coming off again.
I then needed more, so I started going to the gym, picked up a few workout classes with Zumba and step aerobics and with a LOT of hard work and dedication, I reached my goal in February 2011 – in time for my wedding in May. It wasn't easy. There were times when I wanted to give up, and times when I did give up and ate too much, but I never let one bad day turn into a bad week. I always got straight back on the wagon. No matter how tough it got though, I always kept my goal in sight, and that was improved health. With each pound, I could breathe better. When I reached my goal, I felt amazing, like a different person.
The battle did not stop there. I have been maintaining since then (up and down a few lbs here and there) and I truly think that is the hardest part. I can never eat whatever I want all the time, as I will put on weight so much quicker than other people, because of how much I have lost. That doesn't mean I don't treat myself, I do, but I still have a structured exercise routine to burn it all off and I eat clean 95% of the time. The recipes on this site are all about healthier alternatives to the foods I love. So, healthier cakes, and healthier alternatives to takeaways play a big part.
I started this website and the Facebook page back in June. I wanted to help other people who are in the same situation. It isn't just about weight loss, it is about making lifestyle changes so you can be healthier. That includes eating better and exercising more. This website and the Facebook page keeps me on track with maintaining as well and it allows me to pass on all of the things I have learnt along the way. If you ever have anything to ask me, just head to the Facebook page and post on the wall or go to the contact section of this website.
Feel free to have a look around the website. You will find lots of recipes for healthier alternatives to the foods you love, blog posts, diet tips, exercises you can do at home, general news, products I love and even a 3 week kick start plan.
I'm not going to say it will be easy, but it WILL be worth it.
If you are on your own weight loss journey and want to see how much your weight loss compares to real life items, take a look at Weight Equivalents – How Much Weight Have You Lost?
If you have any enquiries about this site, my journey or any of the recipes, do not hesitate to contact us.
Well done you.such an inspiration and im in the same boat as you were,I've got no will power but hope that one day I will do it!
this is wonderful. so many healthy ideas. and encouraging.

People with Parkinson's disease are being recruited for a British trial after research suggested that it could be treated with common diabetes drugs.
Elevated risk of Parkinson's disease among people with type 2 diabetes appears to be reduced by some medications used to treat the condition, a new study led by researchers at University College London has found.
They are now recruiting for a phase 3 clinical trial to test whether one of the drugs, known as exenatide, could be used as a potential treatment.
Research published by UCL in the journal Brain said that people who were taking two particular classes of diabetes treatments — GLP-1 agonists (such as exenatide) and DPP4 inhibitors — were less likely to be diagnosed with Parkinson's disease a


WATCH: Additional surveillance footage obtained by Globo TV shows the four swimmers arriving at the French house party around 1:45 a.m. and leaving four hours later. According to the judge, the swimmers claimed to have left the party at 4 a.m.
As the police investigation continues into the alleged robbery of four U.S. Olympic swimmers in Rio, a Brazilian police source told ABC News that "one of the swimmers was seen on CCTV footage breaking down the door to the bathroom at [a] gas station and fighting with a security guard" on the night of the incident.
Police told ABC News that the swimmers "offered 100 reals and $20" to compensate for the damage.
Surveillance video from Brazil's Globo TV shows the swimmers at a gas station.
Swimmer Ryan Lochte claimed on Sunday that he and three teammates were robbed in a taxi early that morning while heading to the Olympic Village in Rio de Janeiro.
Additional surveillance footage obtained by Globo TV shows the swimmers arriving at the French House party around 1:45 a.m. and leaving four hours later. According to the judge, the Olympic athletes claimed to have left the party at 4 a.m.
Lochte told NBC News' Matt Lauer Wednesday night that the swimmers used a restroom at a gas station and when they got back to their taxi, the driver didn't move. That's when two men approached with guns and badges and told them to get out and get down, Lochte said.
Lochte returned to the U.S. on Wednesday, but the three other swimmers — Jack Conger, Gunnar Bentz and James Feigen — remain in Brazil.
United States Olympic Committee spokesman Patrick Sandusky said Conger and Bentz were detained Wednesday night "shortly before their flight was scheduled to depart from Rio."
"They were released by local authorities, with the understanding that they would continue their discussions about the incident," he said.
Sandusky said Lochte's teammates "are cooperating with authorities and in the process of scheduling a time and place today to provide further statements to the Brazilian authorities."
"All are represented by counsel and being appropriately supported by the USOC and the U.S. Consulate in Rio," he added.

The Dead Father is a Canadian film directed by Guy Maddin, and his debut film. The short film tells a surrealist story of a Son's feelings of anger, sadness, and inadequacy after the return of his Dead Father. The Dead Father is shot in black and white on 16mm film and features Maddin's usual use on the stylistic conventions of silent-era cinema.

Plot
The narrating "Son" presents the audience with three photo albums' worth of memories, recovered from the attic. One recounts the mania of his cleanliness-obsessed neighbour and another concerns his "inexplicable loathing" for bushes. But the Son wants to focus on the episode of his Dead Father who, immediately after death, returned to haunt his family.

This development seems promising at first (the Dead Father lies motionless on the kitchen table and in his widow's bed) but it soon becomes clear, as the Son puts it, that the Dead Father does not seem to be "dead in the traditional sense," with brief recoveries during which he makes "various vague requests." The Son resists at first, but then gives up and attempts to make small talk with his Dead Father and even share a meal. The Dead Father enlists the Son in errands but is disappointed at the Son's inability to fulfill his simple requests for fish. The haunting continues in this lackadaisical manner, and it becomes clear that the Dead Father is mostly spending his days at the home of a new and better family down the street.

The Son is soon distressed to find that his Dead Father has fallen sick, and the Dead Father appears driven to death by this illness (film scholar William Beard has suggested that this section of the film is a flashback sequence).

The Dead Father sends the Son on another errand, to take his little sister to school, but in his habitual forgetfulness he doesn't and she runs off, getting lost. Finally, the Son returns home to find his mother coddling his frightened sister and is struck by the Dead Father for his irresponsibility. Angered at his sister for getting him into trouble, the Son assaults her teddy bears. The family continues to mourn and the Son discovers that his older sister's boyfriend, Cesar, has been sneaking in at night to sleep with her (due, perhaps, to the absence of the Dead Father). The Son is spurred to "reclaim [his Dead Father] once and for all" and sets out at night in search of the Dead Father.

The Son discovers that the bushes and yards in the neighbourhood are thick with corpses at night, and finally discovers his own Dead Father amongst these corpses. Taking out a spoon, the Son eats his Dead Father, digging into the flesh of his belly, until the Dead Father wakes and fixes the Son with a reproachful stare. The Son then helps his Dead Father recover from the ordeal. The Dead Father, seeing the problems he has caused for the family by his return, leads the Son to the attic. There, the two reminisce over photo albums and the Dead Father gets the Son to help pack the Dead Father away in a storage trunk as if in a coffin. The reluctant Son closes the lid.

Top Five from Thursday at the 2013 Open: Tiger recovers from rough start, fires solid 69
By Stephanie Wei under British Open
Tiger golfs his ball well
After hooking his opening tee shot into the thick rough at Muirfield, Tiger Woods hit a provisional ball on the first hole of the Open Championship on Thursday afternoon. He also pulled his provisional, but not as wide left, but with the aid of marshals and fans, Woods found his first ball and took an unplayable. Though he scrambled for a bogey, it wasn't exactly an ideal start and it made you think, "Ugh, here we go again!"
Not so fast! After all, there's a reason why Tiger Woods is arguably the greatest golfer to have ever played the game.
What happened on the first shot of the day?
"When I got over that tee shot, I was thinking, if I hammer it, this 3-wood is in that bunker," said Woods after posting a two-under 69. "So maybe I should take something off it. Maybe I should hit 5-wood. Hence I hit a flip hook left and there she goes. I took an unplayable, hit the shot where I wanted to, hit it right of the hole and I got up-and-down."
Even though he birdied the par-3 no. 4, the first five holes didn't look promising, but Woods, who is probably the best grinder in the history of the game, kept on trucking.
It appeared like Tiger was in trouble again on no. 6 when his first chip came up about a foot of being perfect and rolled off the green and into the rough. (A shot I'm familiar with and have hit several times over the past week when I was conducting my "research" in links golf.) His second chip was much better and he rolled in the putt to save bogey.
That was the game-changer. The momentum carried over to no. 7, and for the final eleven holes, he was virtually flawless, rolling in four birdies and just one bogey. He had a phenomenal sand save on no. 12, with one foot in and the other kneeling on the grass, where he knocked it to about five feet.
With the sun shining and temperatures over 80-degrees and the wind blowing, the firm and fast conditions at Muirfield made the golf course even more difficult to tackle. It was a grind. It's just mentally exhausting because you have to stay so focused and and consider all the possibility since the elements are a factor.
"The golf course just kept drying out," said Tiger, who drew the afternoon wave on Thursday. "And it was so hard to get the ball close, even lag putt and try to get the ball the right speed. It was very difficult. And I tried to keep the ball in front of me as best I could. And hole a putt if I could, if I could keep it below the hole. But, again, it was so difficult to get the ball even below the hole and in the right spot."
Again, you have to miss it on the right side of the hole and STAY PATIENT.
Woods tees off on Friday morning in the second round, which usually bodes for calmer, more mild conditions, but it's always a toss-up in Scotland. And there's the question of whether the R&A will water the fairways and greens, as the course almost got away from the organizers' control.
"I don't know what they're going to do with the golf course, if they're going to keep it dry and fast and let it get to where it is this afternoon," said Woods. "Are they going to put some water on it? They put some water on the practice rounds. When we came out this morning, there was moisture on them, but they dried out in the afternoon. And also we're supposed to get a different wind tomorrow. It will be interesting to see what the course setup is tomorrow."
In other words, get some water on that course!
Meanwhile, the other stories of the day:
*Zach Johnson: After losing to 19-year-old Jordan Spieth in a playoff at the John Deere Classic last Sunday, Zach is atop the leaderboard again, posting a five-under 66 in the first round to take a one-shot lead over Rafael Cabrera-Bello and Mark O'Meara. Johnson just played incredibly solid golf and did what he needed to do — let's all say it at once: STAYED PATIENT.
"I was talking to some others prior to coming in here, what I have learned this tournament — solid shots, solid, crisp shots, you may not get the proper bounce every time, but for the most part it turns out okay," said Zach in his post-round presser. "A mis-hit shot, you can get a bad break or end up in a very unfortunate position. So with that being said, striking the ball solid is key. And the only way to do that is to continue to remain patient. I think that's the biggest word of the week.
"You don't know what the course is going to do as far as the elements involved. I know the forecast looks tremendous, someone said it actually might get warmer, which is bizarre. So you've just got to continue to plod along. I don't know if there's a perfect formula for it. However, I do know that patience and perseverance are the two ingredients that are required to get to that finish line. So that's going to be my approach. I don't mean to dumb it down or make it too simple, but I think you kind of have to in some regards. And make putts. Anytime you see someone hoist the Claret Jug, it's because they've obviously fought the elements properly, but they've putted pretty darn good, too."
Crap. Duh. I'm kicking myself.
[Aside: So, I have to bring this up because it's killing me. I've been planning on putting money on Zach for a while — he played well at last year's Open and he's obviously striking it well and he's a grinder. I've never done put actual cash down at the Open, though I've always intended to, and I ran into a bunch of Tour types at the betting shop, and one well-known swing coach asked to see my betting sheets (the pieces of paper with names of the guys I wanted to back with their odds and how much, etc.).
When he got to Zach's name, he grimaced and said, "Oooo, Zach Johnson, I don't know him about… there are a lot of right pins on that course and he only moves the ball right-to-left." Naturally, that messed me up and I immediately crossed his name out. After all, this esteemed swing coach would definitely know more than me.
When I saw him in passing today, I smiled and said, "Zach Johnson!" We had a laugh. He said, "Hey, there are three more rounds…How did Webb Simpson do? I picked him."
I replied, "A few over." ]
*The Old Guys, Mark O'Meara, Tom Lehman and Todd Hamilton (and Miguel Angel Jimenez and Angel Cabrera almost fall under this category): These three past Open champs are on the first page of the leaderboard. Why? Because they understand links golf, and with the firm conditions, the ball is rolling forever, which helps with their disadvantage with regard to distance.
"I guess on the first tee my thought was, look, you know, I realize I'm 56, but I also realize that I've won The Open Championship," said O'Meara, who shot a four-under 67. "And I also know that links golf is a little bit different than playing in the Masters. It's a little bit different than playing in the U.S. Open. It's a little different than a PGA. From the standpoint that experience I think plays a big factor in how guys play. And links golf it's not just about power, where a lot of the game today is about bombs away, and hit the ball a long way and play it up in the air. Links golf is about creativity, shot process, thinking about where you need to land the ball…
"I've seen the most horrendous conditions you can think about playing golf in out there. But today the wind really didn't blow that hard. I understand the course is dry. It's firm. It's fast. And the greens got pretty quick for an Open Championship. But just in my estimation, I don't know, I mean, I didn't see it being unfair, in my opinion. So I guess if I had shot 8-over I might come in and tell you guys it was unfair. But to me I just didn't see that. So I'm pleased to get off to a good start, and hopefully I can play well tomorrow morning."
*Phil Mickelson: Lefty said he had discovered the secret to success with putting in links golf, and apparently it worked on Thursday. Phil, who is coming off his first win in the UK last Sunday at the Scottish Open, shot a respectable two-under 69, which included a three-putt on no. 18 from about 15 feet.
"I'm trying to lag it, because I know it's quick," he said. "I'm trying to lag the one on 17 and it still goes six or seven feet by. No. 8 is probably the worst one that you'll see if you watch it on TV. It won't stop until it collects in a little level area about eight feet away, six, eight feet away.
"Very difficult conditions and playing early gave us at least a fighting chance. And you can get off to a good start here, you can birdie the par-5, so you can shoot a reasonable score. But we got let go of our ego sometimes and just set the course up the way the best players can win."
When he referred to "our ego," he wasn't talking about his own, rather the R&A championship committee that is setting up the golf course.
*Jordan Spieth: This kid is unbelievable. I didn't pick him for any of my pools because I assumed he'd be exhausted with not just winning on the PGA Tour for the first time, but being the first teen to ever accomplish such a feat. But, I forgot it's a bit different in the UK, where he wouldn't be bombarded with press requests and go through the whole dog-and-pony show. I mean, if this were the U.S. Open, that would be the case, but he's been able to chillax and go about his practice relatively unbothered.
Playing in his Open Championship debut, Spieth shot a solid two-under 69. No big deal. Now, of course, Spieth has some experience with links golf. He played the Junior Ryder Cup at Gleneagles and he was a member of the victorious Walker Cup team at Royal Aberdeen in 2011.
The firm and fast greens? Bring it on.
"I've played on faster," said Spieth when asked if this was as fast as he'd seen greens in Scotland. "To be honest, this is more what I like…I putted well today. I feel more comfortable on these greens. I don't think of the speed, I feel the speed. Last week I reminded myself to hit it. This week I can go over and see the putt and feel it, which is obviously going to lead to better putting, hopefully."

Sara MacIntyre, formerly Prime Minister Stephen Harper's spokesperson, was hired as British Columbia Premier Christy Clark's press secretary. Photo from Facebook.
Sara MacIntyre, Prime Minister Stephen Harper's former press secretary, made a splash in her first week on the job as British Columbia Premier Christy Clark's media handler. And handle the press, she did.
In a video being widely circulated on the internet, MacIntyre – the conservative Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF)'s former British Columbia director – got snarky when several reporters at a trade show attempted to ask Clark about her proposal to move welfare recipients to jobs in northern British Columbia.
MacIntyre started her BC job on March 6, nearly a month after announcing her resignation as Harper's spokesperson on February 10. She is the latest in a series of federal Conservative hires for the premier which include former Enbridge, Taser, tar sands and pharmaceutical lobbyist Ken Boessenkool, who served as a chief advisor to Harper.
MacIntyre, a political science masters candidate at the University of Calgary, previously served as head of the CTF's BC branch, communications director for BC wind energy company NaiKun, and a policy researcher on human resources and Aboriginal affairs when Harper was leader of the opposition.
But the mid-thirties staffer – who took over former BC press secretary Chris Olsen's $125,000.10 a year job (salaries accessed by a Canadian Taxpayers Federation document request) – has a background as politically engaged as it is technical. She's no public relations flak, it turns out.
With BC teachers taking job action currently, and Clark's Liberals pushing back-to-work legislation through this week, it is interesting that MacIntyre herself has played a prominent role in the issue in 2005.


Birmingham International Airport has launched a letter-writing campaign to push the case for a high speed rail link directly to the airport and NEC.
It has asked business partners to make their views known to a Government inquiry which is considering how to build a new high speed route between London and the West Midlands.
Mr Morris asked them to write to the chief executive of High Speed Two, the company set up by the Government to conduct the inquiry, and to Mark Pearce, director for economic regeneration at Advantage West Midlands, the regional development agency, to explain why an airport stop would benefit business.
The Government has launched a review into how and where a high-speed rail service should be built, chaired by former civil servant Sir David Rowlands, which will present its findings to Transport Secretary Lord Adonis by the end of the year.
Although ministers have taken a decision that trains should run initially between London and the West Midlands, Sir David will make recommendations about the exact locations in a report later this year.
The new high speed rail link is expected to run to Heathrow, although this not yet cast in stone.
In his letter, Mr Morris said that what was good for Greater London was also good for the West Midlands – and the region's major airport should also be included.
He said: "The Birmingham International Hub, located at or very close to Birmingham International Airport and the National Exhibition Centre, would provide additional connectivity to those locations, and link with an existing transport hub. We propose that the hub be delivered so that new direct rail services from across the region could link with High Speed Rail as well as international flights.
A spokesman for Birmingham City Council said the authority backed calls for both the city centre and the airport to be included on the high speed line.


The Mopeka Tank Anchor is a folding tank stand. It's a great alternative to those bulky and tall tank stands found in most stores. Protects your car and floor surfaces from the rust and grim that builds up on cylinders.
The Tank Anchor can also be used in conjunction with a standard sensor to provide space for the sensor, and improved wireless range. So it's a nice alternative when replacing lost aluminum spacers.

Press Release: EuroISPA Announces Election of New Board
23rd November 2020 /in 2020, News, Press /by admin-euroispa-org
Brussels, 23 November 2020 – EuroISPA, the association of European Internet Services Providers, announces the appointment of it new board members, following an election during the latest General Meeting. The newly elected President, Alexandra Laffitte, was previously on the board as Treasurer and Vice-President; Innocenzo Genna takes on the role of Vice-President once more; whilst Thomas Bihlmayer joins the EuroISPA board as Treasurer in his first mandate. As members from FFTélécoms (France), AIIP (Italy), and eco (Germany), respectively, the new EuroISPA board reflects the multinational nature of the association.
Alexandra Laffitte (FFTélécoms) stated, "I am delighted to have been elected President of EuroISPA, and I look forward to continuing the work the association has achieved in the past years, and to building upon the work of the previous presidencies. This nomination is very humbling, and I would very much like to thank EuroISPA's membership and extend my gratitude to Maximilian Schubert for having been an outstanding, forward-thinking President for the past two years. My time on the EuroISPA board over the past two years has given me great insight into the valuable work the association does. I am excited to continue to push forward EuroISPA's programme and priorities in the context of policy issues like the Digital Services Act."
Innocenzo Genna (AIIP) said, "It is a great pleasure to once more be part of the EuroISPA board. In the past years we have focused on the key policy topics that impact our industry and our members, and I look forward to contributing to this actively. While new European rules are expected to address the issues arising from the rise of digital markets and the conflicts with traditional industries, it is of utmost importance that the Internet remains an open space where innovators can launch and develop new services and business models beyond the limitations of legacy technologies and national borders; EuroISPA is in the interesting position of helping ensure this can happen."
Thomas Bihlmayer (eco) added, "EuroISPA has a strong position in enabling its members from across the continent to be represented vis-á-vis EU policy makers, and I am happy and extremely honoured to have been elected as the association's Treasurer. It will be an exciting challenge to help this association grow and expand, whilst working towards its goals and priorities. I look forward to further shaping the role and influence of EuroISPA with the new board, and thank the members for their trust in me to do so."
As a pan-European association, EuroISPA represents over 2,300 ISPs across the European continent. The association advocates for the needs of the wider internet industry at EU level on specific policy issues, working to make sure that industry priorities are highlighted to external stakeholders. The board is elected every two years, and ensures the governance and daily running of the association, as well as ensuring the positioning of EuroISPA on key policy topics.
