Archive for the tag "high school bullies"
I love change.org. It is a website to help people with their political advocacy by providing a framework to build a petition. This is from a recent eNewsletter that they sent out to subscribers.
In the past three weeks, Apple revamped its policy to protect workers in China, Meryl Streep and Johnny Depp stood up to high school bullies, President Obama took action to protect Syrians living in America from potential torture and death, and a woman named Hope saved her husband from deportation.
Here's the crazy thing — it's possible none of this would have happened if people hadn't started petitions on Change.org. But they did. Today we want to share stories with you of nine people who took a chance to try and change something, earned the support of thousands of signatures, got attention from major media outlets from the New York Times to The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and who ultimately won their campaigns.
These victories are amazing on their own. But we're even more excited about the potential they represent: we're living in a time where anyone, anywhere, can use the internet to change the world. (Seriously, you can start a petition right here.)
Keep reading — we hope you find these stories as inspiring as we do.
– Patrick and the Change.org team
Apple customer Mark sparks promised improvements for workers in China
"Like most Apple customers, I had no idea how appalling the working conditions were at Foxconn, where most iPhones and iPads are assembled. After hearing employees worked excessive hours, in some cases seven days a week, and stood so long their legs swelled until they couldn't walk, I wanted to write a letter to Apple, but then I thought, why not start a petition instead? 250,000 signatures later, Foxconn has promised major changes, including making sure all employees work no more than 49 hours per week without having their salaries cut. I know great organizations continue to press for additional improvements, but I'm so grateful to have played a part in this amazing first step." -Mark Shields
Maha and Darakshan save countless Syrians from terror and violence
"Since Syria's democratic uprising in 2011, the government there has killed thousands of people. Syrian nationals living in America were terrified of being deported and tortured or killed for supporting democracy. We started a petition asking President Obama to grant those Syrians "Temporary Protected Status" so they could stop living in fear, and after 12,000 people and several members of Congress supported our campaign, President Obama came through." -Maha Hilal & Darakshan Raja
Meryl Streep, Johnny Depp and Ellen DeGeneres support Katy's fight against bullies
"I used to be bullied so badly that I was afraid to go to school. When I saw that a new documentary made to stop bullying was rated R, I started a petition asking the Motion Picture Association of America to change the rating to PG-13 so that the kids who most needed to see the film would be able to. A few weeks and almost half a million signatures later, I got to be on The Ellen Show. Meryl Streep, Johnny Depp, and 35 members of Congress threw their support behind my campaign. Now the movie's distributor, The Weinstein Company, is releasing the film as 'unrated' so that all kids can see the movie." -Katy Butler
Mom and food blogger Bettina keeps "pink slime" out of school cafeterias
"I'm a parent who writes about children and food, especially school food reform. So I was upset to learn that USDA was arranging to offer school districts ground beef containing 7 million pounds of 'lean, finely textured beef,' more commonly known as 'pink slime.' LFTB is made from slaughterhouse scraps previously used only for pet food and cooking oil, and treated with ammonium hydroxide to kill pathogens. In just 9 days, nearly 250,000 signed people my petition, leading the USDA to change its policy and offer districts, for the first time ever, ground beef without this cheap filler." -Bettina Elias Siegel
Jason takes on an insurance company to help save his dad
"My dad, Henry, had a terrible heart attack last fall that left him with severely impaired cognitive and motor skills. His doctors said that rehab would help him get better, but his insurance provider — Blue Cross Blue Shield Massachusetts — refused to pay. I started a petition on Change.org and almost 200,000 people signed it. Now Blue Cross has agreed to pay for my dad's care." -Jason Warren
Craig — a straight Republican Marine — defends his gay brother's right to marry
"I served in Iraq to defend freedom and liberty, but the legislature in my home state of New Hampshire wanted to take away my brother Calvin's freedom to marry the person he loves just because he's gay. I started a petition asking New Hampshire's Republican legislature to do the conservative thing: stay out of people's private lives. More than 125,000 people signed my petition, and the legislature voted to uphold marriage equality. I hope one day I get to be the best man in Calvin's wedding." -Craig Stowell
Cancer survivor mom Jane convinces Mattel to manufacture bald Barbies
"I lost my hair when I went through chemo, and I know so many little girls go through the same thing — it can be sad and scary. I started a petition asking Mattel to manufacture a bald Barbie so that little cancer warriors will see that they are beautiful princesses, too. Almost 35,000 people signed my petition, and now Mattel says it will make bald dolls and donate them to children's cancer wards around America." -Jane Bingham
Hope Mustakim uses petition to save her husband Naz from deportation
"With the outpouring of support from our community, numerous organizations, churches, Change.org, our incredible legal team, friends and family, and our loving God, my husband Nazry is back home in Waco. Thank you Change.org for believing in our cause and providing a way to gather the support that played a monumental part in winning Naz's freedom back. We are so grateful." -Hope Mustakim

Folk Songs from Uttar Pradesh by: Laxmi Ganesh Tewari ₹550.00 ₹495.00
Blowing of a conch-shell and/or ringing of a hand bell and/or singing a song to welcome the evening twilight in front of a tulsi plant is a nostalgic scene from India's past. For the majority of the young Indian population, this daily routine is only depicted on picture postcards or in Bollywood movies. Folk songs in this book were recorded in the 1970's. Since Independence, India has been undergoing fast technological advances; a wave of new internationalism is absentmindedly sweeping away rural traditions. Singing and playing of traditional folk songs and ensembles for appropriate ceremonies are becoming less and less popular; instead, movie songs and modern brass bands are appreciated. Each folk song in this collection is like an artefact in an archaeological museum. These songs tell the story and customs of celebrating life-cycle ceremonies, welcoming seasons, and retelling our mythology. The songs are given in vernacular Hindi language, transliterated, and translated, to facilitate understanding by readers with different backgrounds. The original field recordings have been deposited at the Archives and Research Center for Ethnomusicology of the American Institute of Indian Studies at Gurgaon, Haryana, India, where they are available for listening and recording details.
Hindustani Sangeet: Some Perspectives Some Performers by: Sushil Kumar Saxena ₹600.00 ₹540.00
There are three major ways of looking at Hindustani sangeet. An easy-to-follow discussion of its basic concepts is one. A truthful and sympathetic, yet not merely laudatory, account of the life and art of some of its masterly exponents is another. Both these approaches have been fairly common so far. The third way, which has not yet received the attention it deserves, tries to dwell upon Hindustani music, rhythm, and (Kathak) dance explicitly in relation to philosophy and philosophers of art. It is from this point of view that the present book should be welcome. It does not, however, overlook the first two approaches. Besides quite a few essays that explore the aesthetical aspects of Hindustani music, the book takes a renovative look at Kathak dance, and engages the reader in a discussion of how far our music can be regarded as spiritual. These and some other key features should make this book acceptable to both rasikas and musicologists.
Bharatiya Chau-Nritya by: Badari Prasad ₹3,800.00 ₹3,420.00
Chhau dance has an unbroken relation with the essence of Indian culture. This dance form that flourishes in the forest-areas of Jharkhand, Odisha and West Bengal has already attained widespread acclaim, internationally, as an art. By its distinct confluence of the classical and folk traditions, this art form has carved a niche for itself of being counted as the dance of the traditional and classical discipline. It is based on the foundation of martial art techniques. The most striking features are the multi-coloured, splendid, artistic and attractive masks and magnificent headgears that form part of the decoration and costume design. It consists of dance movements called as nritta-karanas as described in Bharata's Natyashastra and hand gesticulations as found in Nandikeshvara's Narityashastra, and is also endowed with varied regional movements of folk forms. This dance form depicts movements of day-to-day activities, gaits of animals and birds, and symbolic gestures accompanied by the war-drums and music giving an experience of the sweet fragrance of the regional music forms. The plot is generally drawn from the Ramayana, Mahbaharata, and various other Puranas and poetry. It is thus a combination of a rich tradition of artistic creativity that has naturally attracted the mind of all age-groups at the national and international arena.
The author has collected authentic information by visiting those places where this dance form is traditionally taught and practised. The author has met the teachers of chhau dance, the designers of masks and costumes, and spent time to gather information to be made available in a single place. In the present text, chhau dance has been presented for the first time elaborately with indepth and authentic details. Along with the presentation of the historical and cultural aspects of chhau dance, its performing aspect, content of plot, costumes, physical gesticulation, instruments and instrumentalists, regional styles, the three distinct styles of chhau — its history, folk tradition and other details — are elaborated in nine sections. The 200 photographs in this edition reiterate the richness of this art with greater authenticity and thus prove to enliven this traditional art form.
Vol. 1 ISBN: 8124606463, 9788124606469
Hindustani Music and the Aesthetic Concept of Form by: Anjali Mittal ₹520.00 ₹468.00
With its roots in the Samaveda (which treats it as a 'divine art'), music in India has a long, splendid tradition. Over the centuries, it has absorbed fresh influences and experimented with new forms to finally evolve into two meticulously codified classical systems: Hindustani and Carnatic. In today's growing library of writings on Hindustani music, Anjali Mittal's research is yet another valuable addition adopting, as it does, a viewpoint which has been neglected so far, namely, the viewpoint of contemporary western aesthetics. It is for the first time that this monograph examines the concept of form in Hindustani classical music. In this context, analytic attention has been focussed on some select compositions in dhruvapada, dhamar, tarana, vilambit and drut khyal genres of Hindustani classical vocal music. A wide variety of drut tanas has also been analysed in terms of notation and linear diagrams. Such diagrams, in fact, distinguish the present volume. Analysis of some rhythm-cycles and rhythmic patterns is another feature of this book. Thoroughly documented and written in a jargon-free language, the study includes a contextual discussion of aesthetics, artistic expression, aesthetic predicates and, above all, the concept of artistic form. The work may be expected to interest all those who want an analytic understanding of what form (or bandisha) means in the region of Hindustani classical vocal music.

Whether it's a long weekend, a week away, or a month abroad, summertime means a change of scenery, a change of routine, and a break from the stress and frustration of our daily grind. Sometimes the grind is so great that we really do feel we are about to break under the pressure. Sometimes the grind is just part of the energy that keeps us motivated to be great at our job. Either way, changes can give us a vital re-charge.
Here are some tips to keep us healthy while enjoying the pleasures of our summertime fun.
For many of us, summer fun might include indulging in ice cream, frosty drinks, and all sorts of bbq delicacies. No worries — if you remember to keep a nice balance of treats and nutrition. If you tend to gobble up treats that are not part of your typical meal, try to portion out a small amount — then walk away between bites. Visit with friends, toss the softball around, or kick back in a lounge chair with a good book. After the first few bites you may even forget about it!
Start each meal with a large bowl of fruits and/ or veggies. And cook up some healthy alternatives to high-calorie favorites. Filling up on nutrition first makes it less likely you'll over do it with the desserts later on.
You know this, but I'll remind you anyway — drink lots and lots of water. Not only do you need more H2O when the temps rise, but you'll keep your tummy fuller and the high-calorie drinks to a minimum if you go back and forth between the two. If you need something more substantial, try a thick Chocolate Shakeology. It's the healthiest meal of the day, disguised as your favorite milkshake!
Get out there and play! Summer is a time for long walks on the beach, lazy games of croquet, or sweaty bursts on the tennis court. Don't just sit next to the water — dive in! Feel the resistance of the waves, the buoyancy as you float. Play whiffle ball with the kids, or go running along a park trail. You'll keep your energy up, burn calories, and sleep like a baby!
Plan your meals (and your treats) along with portion sizes. Need help? Try this: 21 Day Fix Challenge This 3 week program will give you a daily plan of 30 minutes of exercise, 1 superfood nutrition shake, and 8 portion containers to help you figure out just how much to eat each day. I call it the Lazy Way to Get in Shape. Save up to $60 by ordering the Challenge Pack this JUNE 2016.
Hope all your dreams for summertime come true!


There's UBER, LYFT and dozens of other ridesharing services available out there. Is it possible that they've all overlooked an opportunity in the marketplace? UZURV founder and serial entrepreneur Matt Donlon is a very creative problem solver who will tell the story of how he spotted a need and turned it into an exciting, Richmond-based business despite many obstacles (and a threat or two) along the way.
Matt has a storied background in security having worked at the CIA, Department of the Navy, NASA and as the Director of the Security and Intelligence Office at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). The prototype Matt developed at DARPA led him to Carnegie Mellon Software Engineering Institute where he was able to mature the technology. In 2000 Matt decided to start his own company, The ESP Group. There he very successfully led the effort to build a highly secure portal software for the national security community.
After The ESP Group was acquired, Matt was able to pursue a wide array of interests and invest in promising new businesses, including a horse hospital in Amelia County, a whisky distillery in Lovingston, and restaurants in Charlottesville and Richmond.
Matt was one of the first Uber Partners when they launched here in Richmond in 2014. It was a job he embraced as it allowed him to explore new parts of the city and meet and talk to a diverse range of people, a favorite pastime of his.
In May 2015 Matt met co-Founder, Harold Frans, at a Capital One event where they were both representing Uber. They got to talking and on that day the idea for the UZURV app was born. It wasn't long before he started assembling a crew of top notch IT, marketing and operations professionals to make their dream a reality.


Keep Your Wig As Good As New All The Times Different types or wigs are used to style your hair and even to hide your baldness. It's not appropriate to buy new one each and every time, but proper care should be taken. There are many products available to take care of your wigs. Synthetic wigs are made from hair only, so there care is to be taken the same way as you care for your natural hair, but these hairs do not naturally grown on your head so it's difficult to wash them.
Remove the wig and then rinse it in cold water and remove the shampoo, apply wig conditioner and allow the fiber to absorb the conditioner for some time and then wash it using cold water. Make sure it's properly cleaned. Once conditioner, clean the wig with the help of a towel and gently pat out any extra amount of water from it. Make sure never to rub it. Never use a hair dryer as it will damage the fiber and do not use any other form of dryer. Keep synthetic wig away from any source of heat and flame. Once you have properly washed and towel the wig, clean the wig and leave it on wig stand and let the air thoroughly dry it. Once completely dry after that, only make use of the comb and set the wig to its original shape.

3rd Thursdays Art Night Out with Judy Skulborstad and Barb Rydz Ross: Friends and Collaborators
« "I Never Saw Another Butterfly": The Holocaust Through Music with Joanne McDade, Soprano, and Dr. Thomas Snydacker, Saxophone
Barrington's White House Holiday Visits with Santa »
Judy Skulborstad, an impressionist artist, and Barb Rydz Ross, an abstract artist, have been friends for over 20 years through their shared passion for their artistic expression with color and light. Each has a unique approach to interpreting their observations of life, and this show is their collaboration of alternate viewpoints in their work. They will also showcase a selection of interpretations of a similar subject/theme using their unique approaches.
Judy paints with pastel which is dry, pure pigment in a stick form. She loves the beauty, feel, versatility and immediacy of this medium. A lifelong love of drawing, color, nature and traveling has provided her with endless inspiration; her focus is on portraying the effect of light on a subject in nature and everyday scenes. Her passion is to translate into a visual language those moments and visual delights that have forced her to stop, observe and connect. Sometimes those moments are fleeting or sometimes they afford me a more leisurely observance and meditation.
Barb paints with acrylics and also uses multimedia and layering techniques to depict a scene or mood with little or no attempt at pictorial representation. Barb was born in Belgium to Polish immigrants and concentration camp survivors. She has lived in New York, London, Hong Kong, Germany and Chicago. She earned a B.A. degree in Studio Art from The City College of New York (CCNY) and later Certificates in Drawing and Painting from the Art Institute of Chicago where she received a Certificate in Drawing and later a Certificate in Painting. Ba Barb learned to listen to her intuitive inner voice by using color, line, texture and movement to express her deepest sentiments. It was here that she experienced what artistic expression really meant and its importance in her life, community and spirituality.
NOTE: This event will feature complimentary hor d'ourves and live music. Cash bar. This event is entirely in-person. No virtual tickets are available. If you are having trouble purchasing tickets please contact us at culturalevents@barringtonswhitehouse.com or 224-512-4066.

A Few Paragraphs: New trends in mourning the dead!
New trends in mourning the dead!
Need some liquid courage to make it through the ceremony, sir?
Last week I mentioned a cemetery in Spain that provides wifi for its customers. The live customers, not the dearly departed ones. But that's just the tip of the funereal iceberg, so to speak.
Why should a trip to the undertaker be such a downer anyway? Luckily there are plenty of other funeral homes that cheerfully cater to your every need.
For instance, the very considerate Paradise Funeral Chapel of Saginaw, Michigan realizes that the death of a friend or relative can really cut into your free time. In an attempt to restore convenience to the mourning process they've installed a drive-thru so you can come by and have a private moment with the dead on your way to Denny's.
But what if you're roped into one of those boring, old fashioned funerals, the kind where you have to stay for an hour or more honoring uncle Oswald. Well, the undertaking business fully understands your pain. That's why, for instance, the Hodges Funeral Home in Naples, Florida has gone to the trouble of installing an on-site, fully stocked wine cellar. Then, if you're suddenly overcome by grief, you can step away and have a glass or two of Chianti to steady your nerves. Or, if you find yourself absolutely prostrate with emotion, a Portuguese Port might be more up your alley.

Die Liste der Stolpersteine in der Region Pays de la Loire enthält die Stolpersteine in der französischen Region Pays de la Loire. Sie erinnern an das Schicksal der Menschen, die von den Nationalsozialisten ermordet, deportiert, vertrieben oder in den Suizid getrieben wurden. Die Stolpersteine werden von Gunter Demnig verlegt. Sie liegen im Regelfall vor dem letzten selbst gewählten Wohnsitz des Opfers. In dieser Region allerdings liegen zwölf der dreizehn bislang verlegten Stolpersteine vor dem jeweiligen Gefallenendenkmal ihres Heimatortes.
Die Verlegungen in dieser Region erfolgten in enger Zusammenarbeit mit dem Hamburger Stolpersteinprojekt, da die bislang verlegten Steine allesamt französischen Zwangsarbeitern gewidmet sind, die in Hamburg ums Leben gekommen sind und für die auch in Hamburg Stolpersteine verlegt wurden.

Die Verlegungen erfolgten Ende September, Anfang Oktober 2013 durch den Künstler persönlich.

Zwangsarbeit in Deutschland

Frankreich kapitulierte am 22. Juni 1940. Das Vichy-Regime wurde etabliert und kollaborierte mit dem siegreichen NS-Regime. Der Generalbevollmächtigte für den Kriegseinsatz, Fritz Sauckel, forderte Arbeitskräfte aus Frankreich an, doch trotz kriegsbedingter Arbeitslosigkeit fanden sich nur wenig Freiwillige für den Arbeitseinsatz in Deutschland, rund 17.000. Die Vichy-Regierung erließ daraufhin 1942 ein Gesetz, welches Männer zwischen 18 und 50 und Frauen zwischen 21 und 35 zur Arbeit im Ausland zwangsverpflichtete. Viele Franzosen entschieden sich in der Folge abzutauchen und sich zu verstecken. Das Service du travail obligatoire (STO) wurde im Februar 1943 gegründet und rekrutierte zusammen mit dem 1942 erlassenen Gesetz zwischen 600.000 und 650.000 Arbeitskräfte für Deutschland. Davon kamen etwa 50.000 ums Leben.

Im Département Vendée wurden rund 4.200 Zwangsarbeiter rekrutiert. Davon starben rund einhundert in Konzentrationslagern des NS-Regimes, interniert aufgrund des Verdachts der Sabotage. Trotzdem wurden viele Zwangsarbeiter in ihrer Heimat als Kollaborateure und Verräter angesehen. Sie wurden erst 2008 als "Opfer der Zwangsarbeit im nationalsozialistischen Deutschland" anerkannt und rehabilitiert.

Am späten Abend des 1. Juli 1943 traf eine Gruppe von Zwangsverpflichteten aus dem Département Vendée in Hamburg ein. Die jungen Franzosen gehörten den Jahrgängen 1921 und 1922 an und standen bereits voll im Berufsleben – als Landwirte, Maurer, Volksschullehrer oder Fischer. Sechs von ihnen waren verheiratet, einige hatten kleine Kinder. Sie waren der Rekrutierung – oft nach langen Überlegungen und Diskussionen – ordnungsgemäß gefolgt und wurden im Zwangsarbeiterlager in der Norderstraße 23 in Altona einquartiert, der heutigen Virchowstraße. Der Gebäudekomplex, bestehend aus einer Infanteriekaserne (an der Norderstraße), einer Dragonerkaserne (am heutigen Eschelsweg) sowie kleineren Gebäuden im Innenbereich, wurde zuvor bis Mitte 1941 als Alten- und Siechenheim und als sogenannte Irrenanstalt genutzt. Danach wurde die Anlage für Ausgebombte und Zwangsarbeiter genutzt. Im April 1942 waren rund 450 junge Männer aus der Ukraine eingetroffen. Sie stellten bis zum Schluss das größte Kontingent im Lager dar. Am 4. Juli 1943 wurden die Personalangaben der französischen Zwangsarbeiter in der Hausmeldekartei vermerkt. In der Gruppe, bestehend aus Katholiken aus der Vendée, entstand rasch ein enges Zusammengehörigkeitsgefühl. Die soeben Angekommenen wurden zu Hilfsarbeiten im Hafen eingeteilt, einige wurden an Binnenschiffer vermittelt.

Bei der alliierten Bombardierung Hamburgs Ende Juli/Anfang August 1943 (Operation Gomorrha) wurden rund 34.000 Menschen getötet, darunter eine unbekannte Zahl von Zwangsarbeitern, deren Lager an der Norderstraße (Altona) getroffen worden war. Sie wurden verschüttet, weil die Luftschutzkeller des Lagers der Wucht der Angriffe nicht standhielten. Überlebende mussten sich mit Händen aus den Trümmern herausarbeiten.

Liste der verlegten Stolpersteine

Die Tabellen sind teilweise sortierbar; die Grundsortierung erfolgt alphabetisch nach dem Familiennamen.

L'Aiguillon-sur-Mer
In L'Aiguillon-sur-Mer wurden vier Stolpersteine vor dem Gefallenendenkmal verlegt.

La Baule-Escoublac
In La Baule-Escoublac wurden am 29. März 2022 neun Stolpersteine an zwei Adressen verlegt.

Stolpersteine in Hamburg

Ein Überlebender des Zwangsarbeiterlagers Norderstraße, Louis Deslandes, schrieb im Herbst 2011 einen Brief an den Ersten Bürgermeister von Hamburg, Olaf Scholz, und ersuchte ihn, seinen in Hamburg umgekommenen Landsleuten in geeigneter Form zu gedenken. Die Bezirksversammlung Altona gründete daraufhin eine Arbeitsgruppe. Es wurden zwei Gedenkveranstaltungen organisiert. Im Januar 2013 wurden in der Jessenstraße vor dem Technischen Rathaus Altona von Gunter Demnig 14 Stolpersteine verlegt: ein Stolperstein mit genereller Erläuterung und 13 Stolpersteine für jeden der ums Leben gekommenen Zwangsarbeiter. An der Einweihung nahmen auch Angehörige der Opfer teil.

Die Jessenstraße war nicht Standort des Zwangsarbeiterlagers. Das Lager befand sich hinter dem Technischen Rathaus im Geviert Virchowstraße, Mörkenstraße, Grotjahnstraße und Eschelsweg. Der Standort wurde gewählt, weil sich das eigentliche Gelände in einem heute kaum begangenem Gewerbegebiet befindet.

Stolpersteine in der Region Pays de la Loire

Die Vorsitzende des Altonaer Ausschusses für Kultur und Bildung, Stefanie Wolpert (Grüne), rief die Bevölkerung dazu auf, Patenschaften zu übernehmen und den Familien aus der Vendée die Stolpersteine zu schenken. Sielke Reineke, Schwiegertochter des Kaufmanns, der Louis Deslandes geholfen hatte, gründete in Hamburg eine Forschungsgruppe, die das Schicksal der in Hamburg ums Leben gekommenen Zwangsarbeiter aus der Vendée recherchierte. Sie sprach auch auf dem Festakt anlässlich der Stolpersteinverlegungen in der Vendée. Die gemeinsame deutsch-französische Gedenkarbeit solle "für unser Morgen – hier und anderswo – einen dauerhaften Frieden sichern."

Die Stolpersteine in dieser Region wurden von Gunter Demnig an folgenden Tagen verlegt:
 30. September 2013: Fontaines, Fontenay-le-Comte, Nieul-sur-l'Autise
 1. Oktober 2013: Bourneau, Longèves, Mervent
 2. Oktober 2013: L'Aiguillon-sur-Mer, Beaulieu-sous-la-Roche

Jim Carrey will find ex-girlfriend's wrongful death trial 'very painful'
The Hollywood star will have to face a jury after Cathriona White's mother and husband sued him.
By Kerri-Ann Roper
June 1 2017 1:12 AM
Jim Carrey will find a trial over his ex-girlfriend's wrongful death "very painful", his lawyer said, after a date was set for the star to face a jury.
https://www.independent.ie/style/celebrity/celebrity-news/jim-carrey-will-find-ex-girlfriends-wrongful-death-trial-very-painful-35777157.html
https://www.independent.ie/entertainment/movies/802bf/35777154.ece/AUTOCROP/h342/ipanews_d2530e6d-e628-4296-b642-45a9559f25c2_1
Cathriona White's mother and husband are suing the actor, 55, claiming he provided the drugs used in the 30-year-old Irish make-up artist's suicide.
A judge at Los Angeles Superior Court indicated on Wednesday she would not throw out the case as requested by Raymond Boucher, Carrey's lawyer, and estimated a trial would last 20 days.
After the hearing, Mr Boucher said: "Mr Carrey loved Ms White dearly and so obviously it will be a very painful process for him."
Mother Brigid Sweetman claims the Canadian-born star provided the prescription drugs Ambien, Propranolol and Percocet, on which she overdosed.
The Dumb And Dumber actor denies all the allegations, with his lawyers describing them as "malicious" and "predatory".
In court, Mr Boucher argued that allegations under drugs legislation were likely to fall outside the statute of limitations and said the wrongful death claims were too vague.
Ahmed Ibrahim, representing the claimants, urged Judge Deirdre Hill not to delay proceedings any longer, saying Carrey's lawyers would keep coming back for another "bite of the apple".
He also argued to keep the lawsuits' wording open before the trial.
"We are clearly not alleging that Jim Carrey was selling drugs out of the back of his pick-up truck and was therefore not marketing or selling in the traditional sense of what that word would bring to mind," he added.
Ms Sweetman also claims Carrey gave her daughter three sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and pressured her to keep it quiet before her death in September 2015.
Carrey is said to have transmitted herpes type 1, herpes type 2 (genital herpes) and gonorrhoea in 2013 and allegedly tested positive after providing the false name of Jose Lopez.
Ms White's husband Mark Burton is suing Carrey over similar claims.
Ms White, from Cappawhite, Co Tipperary, was found dead in her Los Angeles home in September 2015.
A coroner recorded her death as suicide.
The judge said she would send her final ruling on Carrey's motion to strike to lawyers in due course but indicated she would side with the prosecution at least in part.
She set a date for the trial to begin on April 26.

Saving The Planet: Driving Students and Student Films
IPCI	· June 6, 2017 · Comments Off on Saving The Planet: Driving Students and Student Films
We review the controversial project of FDS – Fake Driving School. Please note, it's adult-themed website only!
Production and Porn
The production values that people can expect with porn videos have a tendency to be very low. There is a reason for this. For one thing, making a lot of money on individual porn videos is rare. People are never going to see erotic thrillers making billions of dollars, even as porn becomes more socially acceptable. The Internet has made porn so widely available that it's even harder to make a lot of actual profit off of porn videos today, and that is only going to make variations in the quality of porn videos more pronounced. The Fake Driving School website is clearly a product of an environment like this.
Taking It Seriously
The low production values of most porn videos don't really seem to phase a lot of people. Some of them are in a situation where they will laugh at a set of porn videos for half of the time while using the porn videos for stimulation the other half of the time. Other people just don't care. The only thing that really matters to them is that the porn videos are able to supply the requisite levels of sexual intrigue. Beyond that, many people are just interested in making sure that the porn videos deliver in general.
The videos on the website for the Fake Driving School are very sexually explicit. People will see everything that they could possibly want to see on a website like this. There is certainly plenty of material here for anyone. While people will find more videos on certain porn websites, all of these videos definitely follow a tight theme. It makes sense that the selection would be narrower as a result.
This will change in the future as the website gains more popularity. There should be enough videos for everyone involved at this point in time. There should be enough videos featuring the performers that specific people like in order to give them what they want. People should also be able to get a sense of the range and the scope of the actors easily.
The Fake Driving School website does not provide amateur porn in the sense that the performers are actually performers. However, it still has the basic sensibilities of the majority of porn shoots these days, which should be enough for many of the people who are watching at this point in time. This actually gives the videos something of an old-school feel, which some people might find appealing by this point in the development of porn.
Enjoying This Adult Entertainment
Many people should be able to find some videos that will appeal to them on the Fake Driving School website. Some people might just find the videos appealing from the standpoint of comedy. However, other people might find them genuinely sexually exciting. Obviously, there are always going to be people who feel that the website will satisfy both needs at the same time. The desire to be entertained in any way is an essential human desire.
IPCI
Well, today, I will make you aware of the bitter truth that the world and every single species living are facing from, and for all the consequences, only we humans are responsible.

Proximo Spirits has announced the release of Tincup – an American whiskey said to offer Bourbon lovers a "bolder, spicier" alternative.
Created by Jess Graber, founder of Stranathan's Colorado Whiskey – Colorado's "first legal whiskey", Tincup American whiskey is a blend of corn, rye and malt aged in charred American white oak barrels.
In a nod to Colorado's whisky-drinking miners of the 19th century, Tincup was named after an old mining town in Gunnison County, which itself was named after the tin cups used by local miners.
"I wanted to create an authentic American whiskey that combines the best Midwestern grains with Colorado's incomparable pure water," said Graber.
Tincup is described as having an aroma of citrus, black pepper and ginger, with notes of rye spice, cinnamon and caramel on the palate.
The design of the whiskey's bottle is said to evoke Colorado's Rocky Mountains with its deeply embossed glass, while a tin cup cap has been designed to enable sipping and sharing.
Graber will tour US markets, including Dallas, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, New York, Phoenix and San Francisco, to conduct tastings.
Tincup is now rolling out across select markets at an RRP of US$27.99.

John Small MacDonald (ca. 1791 – January 20, 1849) was a businessman and politician on Prince Edward Island.

He was born in West River, Saint John's Island (later Prince Edward Island), the son of John Macdonald and Margaret (Peggy) Macdonald, the sister of Captain John MacDonald of Glenaladale. Macdonald married Isabella McDonald. In 1830, he was elected to represent Queens County in the Legislative Assembly. As a landowner, he opposed giving ownership of the land to the tenant farmers; however, he supported moderate reforms. Macdonald was reelected to the assembly until he retired from politics in 1846. He also served as a captain in the militia and a justice of the peace. In 1839, he was named to the Executive Council and he served in that function until his death in Charlottetown at the age of 58. Madonald was also named high sheriff for Queens County that same year. Later in life, he became a shipbuilder but his ships were not considered well-built and that business lost money.

As of April 2006, it looks like someone has leased out at least part of the old plant. It's nice to see an old building get some use rather than sit empty for years and eventually fall apart.
Burlington Industries used to be a major employer in Statesville, but the company went bankrupt and ended up closing down this plant, which was designated a Super Fund site and eventually cleaned up.
I suppose it's still for sale but the website doesn't exist.
Another adjacent building. Alarm systems on both.
Turnstile with the nice speaker mounted there. I tried calling in but no one was home.
I'm not a fence hopper and this place really isn't abandoned, so I stopped here. BUT, quite honestly this place we be falling in and wide open in a couple of years, and I have the patience to wail until then. Empty buildings like this in this town are either demolished or become eyesores.

Die Bahnstrecke Schmalkalden–Kleinschmalkalden war eine  Nebenbahn in Thüringen. Sie verband südlich des Thüringer Waldes Schmalkalden und Kleinschmalkalden.

Geschichte

Am 3. November 1892 wurde der Abschnitt von Schmalkalden bis Floh-Seligenthal eröffnet, ein Jahr später, am 6. November, der Abschnitt Floh-Seligenthal bis Kleinschmalkalden. Züge fuhren meist von Schmalkalden nach Brotterode durch, es gab eine Betriebsgemeinschaft mit der sich anschließenden Kreisbahn.

Am 30. Oktober 1996 endete der Personenverkehr auf der Schiene. Der Güterverkehr zwischen Floh-Seligenthal und Kleinschmalkalden endete am 31. Dezember 1994, auf dem Reststück ein Jahr später am 1. Januar 1996. Der Versuch einer Privatbahn, auf eigene Kosten den Verkehr weiter zu betreiben, scheiterte nach wenigen Tagen. Bis zur Streckenstilllegung fuhren noch einige Sonderzüge, am 30. Juni 1999 war auch dies Geschichte.

Die Strecke wurde 2001/02 demontiert und ein Bahntrassenradweg, der Mommelstein-Radweg, gebaut.

Doseology Appoints Maryam Marissen as CEO to Prepare for Next Growth Stage
Vernon, British Columbia, January 13, 2022 – Doseology Sciences Inc. (CSE: MOOD) ("Doseology" or the "Company") announces the appointment of Maryam Marissen as Chief Executive Officer and Director, effective immediately. Outgoing interim CEO and co-founder Daniel Vice will remain involved with the Company as an independent director. Doseology is a British Columbia-based, diversified life sciences company developing mushroom-based health and wellness solutions.
Ms. Marissen is an accomplished business leader, entrepreneur, and marketing strategist. With over two decades of relevant leadership experience, she brings a valuable combination of consumer product marketing, healthcare, and government relations experience to her new position. Ms. Marissen helped establish one of the first online personal care and wellness e-commerce stores in North America, and grew sales to several million dollars annually. She recently served as Managing Director of a national government relations and public affairs agency, overseeing advocacy campaigns on matters such as healthcare, education, and public policy.
As co-founder of a Vancouver biotech startup, Marissen was involved in psychedelic research for therapeutic applications, consulting with academic, industry, and regulatory stakeholders to develop clinical pathways to patient care. Since last fall, she has been advising Doseology on product research and commercialization strategy while preparing for the leadership role.
Ms. Marissen commented, "It's a personal calling and an honour to lead Doseology during this next stage. Public advocacy for healthcare has long been my passion, so I'm excited to continue addressing mental health challenges by getting new solutions to the people who need them most, in a safe and medically-supervised way."
Regarding the changes made to Health Canada's Special Access Program (SAP) on January 5th, Ms. Marissen added, "I commend Health Canada for their recent amendment of the Special Access Program, which makes psychedelic-assisted therapies including those with psilocybin available to more Canadians in need. As the efficacy of such treatments is further proven by research I believe that Canada's progressive approach may become a model for the world."
Board Chair Ralph Olson added, "We recognize the tremendous achievements from outgoing CEO Daniel Vice, who will remain actively involved as an independent director". On the role transition, Mr. Vice commented, "All of our work so far has led us to this proud moment. Maryam has the experience and vision we believe is required for the upcoming challenges of growth, further research, and commercialization. I'm excited to see Doseology enter this new phase and help move the entire industry forward."
Under Ms. Marissen's leadership, Doseology will focus on cultivation of functional mushrooms, and establishing clinical services to create profitable revenue streams. The company's application for a Health Canada Dealer's License was filed in November, and once approved, will allow for psilocybin-related research and cultivation. In preparation for the Dealer's License, R&D along with channel partnerships are strategic goals.

TERRATEC TBM Breaks Through on Thailand's Samui Island
By TBM Staff on August 31, 2022 International News, News
TERRATEC announced the completion of Samui Island Water Tunnel Project in Thailand. The tunnel was completed using a refurbished TERRATEC 3.2-m diameter Earth Pressure Balance Tunnel Boring Machine (EPBM) by contractor SCG (1995) Co. Ltd.
The project owner, Department of Public Work and Town & Country Planning Authority, contracted SCG (1995) Co. Ltd. to construct a 1.1km long tunnel for the Samui Island flood control system. The tunnel is designed to alleviate flooding and to drain the flood water on Samui Island from busy areas to the ocean.
Samui Island is an island off the east coast of Thailand and it is Thailand's second largest island after Phuket. Each year, there are more than 2.7 million tourists. The island faces severe flood problems and the tunnel is intended to ease the flood water. Being part of the main Ring Road revitalization and improvement project, the water tunnel will significantly improve the rainwater collection from roadway run-off along Samui's main ring road.
Featuring a classic soft ground open spoke cutterhead design, with knife bits to assist break-in and break-out of the steel fiber reinforced concrete shaft eyes, the EPB coped extremely well with the geological conditions along the alignment, which consist of dense sand, stiff to hard clay and decomposed rocks with a groundwater head of about 2 bars.
The receiving shaft, sized in 5 x 9 m, is located at the bottom of two hills where the flood occurs. The flood water will be drained through the new tunnel and connected with a 500-m open canal to the ocean. With TERRATEC's non-tuck hose system, muck can be easily transferred to muck cars and out to the surface.
Machine operation was assisted at all times by TERRATEC's experienced Field Service staff, providing quality after-sales support to ensure optimum performance and successful project completion. Tunneling operations were closely observed throughout the maneuver via a settlement monitoring program.
Prior to the Samui Island Water Tunnel project, the 3.20-m diameter TERRATEC S48 Earth Pressure Balance Tunnel Boring Machine (EPBM) was operated for Bangkok Metropolitan Electricity Authority's (MEA) Phra Khanong Cable Tunnel Project in Bangkok, Thailand. The machine was operated by Thai contractor Nawarat Patanakarn PCL to excavate a sharp 32-m radius curve as it exited the project's launch shaft in order to negotiate the piles of an adjacent expressway ramp.
To achieve this challenging curved alignment, the TERRATEC machine was manufactured with an extreme X-type articulation system that provided a maximum articulation angle of 6.6 degrees. Designed to accommodate a new high-voltage cable system, the Phra Khanong Cable Tunnel Project was the first of a series of planned tunneling projects by the MEA that were being built to meet increased power demands in the Thai capital.
TERRATEC has a well-established regional base in Thailand, having sold its first machine in the country more than 10 years ago for the Metropolitan Rapid Transit (MRT) Blue Line Extension Project. With outstanding tailor-made robust TBM design, prompt onsite assistance, readily available stock of TBM spares and specialized TBM support throughout the tunneling operation, TERRATEC has become the country's leading TBM supplier.

History, Chemical Warfare Service, World War I, Podcasts
Our initial podcast begins a series examining the early history of the US Chemical Warfare Service (CWS) from its founding in World War I to the 1920s. Our inaugural podcast tells the story of Major General William Sibert, whose long journey to become the first commander of the CWS begins oddly enough in Panama. Along the way, he will build the Gatun Locks and get a promotion to Brigadier General that ends up more like a punishment than the reward Congress intended. He will lose two wives before their time, and become the first commander of the 1st
Infantry Division, the famous "Big Red One." Oh, and he'll be relieved of command. All before taking over the Chemical Warfare Service and becoming the "Father of the US Chemical Corps." It is a tale almost impossible to believe, we hope you enjoy it.

Binny's 50 to Ojha's century: Top moments from Road Safety World Series 2022
October 9, 2022 by SBOTOP
The second edition of the Road Safety World Series came to a close on October 1, with India Legends beating Sri Lanka Legends by 33 runs to claim their second title.
The likes of Sachin Tendulkar, Shane Watson, Abdur Razzak and Tillakaratne Dilshan rolled back the years to enthrall the audience with stuff that legends are made of; at the competition's four venues (Kanpur, Indore, Dehradun, and Raipur).
We highlight a few noteworthy performances that raised the bar of excellence in the Road Safety World Series 2022.
Binny, the first half-centurion of Road Safety World Series 2022
Stuart Binny, who retired from all forms of cricket in August 2021, showed he still had some gas left in his tank in the opening fixture of Road Safety World Series 2022.
Representing India Legends, Binny came in to bat at number four and his willow spoke the rest. He reached his half-century in just 31 balls, with five boundaries and two sixes under his belt. He remained unbeaten on 82 off 42 balls as India Legends posted an eventual match-winning total of 217/4 in the first innings.
Jayasuriya makes England Legends' head spin
More often than not, Sanath Jayasuriya is known for being one of Sri Lanka's greatest-ever batters. But, he has also been quite a menace with the ball throughout his celebrated career, and a classic example was the fifth match of the Road Safety World Series 2022.
Jayasuriya claimed four wickets for just three runs in his spell of four overs. This included a spectacular double wicket maiden in the 10th over, with his victims being Darren Maddy and Tim Ambrose.
Sanath Jayasuriya's 4/3 went down the best bowling figures in the second edition of the Road Safety World Series.
Watson taps into 'six-hitting machine' persona
One of the most noticeable traits exhibited by Australia's Shane Watson in his T20 career was his ability to hit maximums at will. In fact, the former all-rounder ranks fifth (467) for the most sixes in T20 cricket.
During his 50-ball 88 against West Indies Legends, Watson slammed nine sixes in the innings to set the tone for a 179-run chase. His side eventually won the fixture by eight wickets, having chased the target in 15.1 overs.
Ojha fires India to title
Naman Ojha was the hero of India Legends' charge in the Road Safety World Series 2022 final, as his unbeaten blitzkrieg of 108 in 71 balls propelled his side to a first-innings score of 195/6.
His knock was crucial given heavy hitters in Sachin Tendulkar (0), Suresh Raina (4), Yuvraj Singh (19), and Yusuf Pathan (0) failed to make a statement with the bat.
Besides his confident display with the bat, Ojha also registered two stumpings as Sri Lanka Legends were bundled out for 162 in 18.5 overs. Thus, India won the tie by 33 runs.
Naman Ojha not only ended up as a Road Safety World Series 2022 champion but also the tournament's leading run-getter (266 runs).

25 Ways to Overcome a Weight-Loss Plateau
Stuck in a rut? Get the scale moving again with these science-backed weight loss tips.
By Dana Leigh Smith
Pounds that are practically falling off! Boosted energy! Better-fitting pants! During the first few weeks (or even months) of your weight loss journey you've got results, results, and more results to show for all your hard work. Then suddenly it happens… the scale stalls and you're stuck. When this happens, you've hit what diet and exercise experts call a weight loss plateau.
"A weight-loss plateau happens to pretty much every person on a weight loss journey, at some point," registered dietitian Bonnie Taub-Dix, RDN, creator of BetterThanDieting.com, author of Read It Before You Eat It – Taking You from Label to Table. Can hitting a weight loss plateau be frustrating? Of course! "But you have to understand that hitting a plateau is just part of the process!," she says.
The stall happens because the body is smart and extremely adaptable. "The body craves stability, so usually, you'll stop dropping pounds because your body has adjusted to the new, lower-calorie routine and now requires less fuel than it did before, Taub-Dix explains." Thankfully, there are a number of simple ways to push past this weight loss lull and nudge the scale in the right direction. And good news? "Usually it's as easy as adding new foods into your diet or moving a little more," she says.
Here are our top strategies to break through a weight-loss plateau and lose weight (and keep it off!).
Diet Tips to Overcome a Weight Loss Plateau
Reassess your caloric needs
"In order to overcome a weight loss plateau, you'll likely need to adjust your calorie intake," says registered dietitian Leah Kaufman, MS, RD, CDE, CDN.
"As you lose weight, your body requires fewer calories for maintenance. If you're taking in as many calories on day 60 of your diet as you did on day 1, you won't be able to lose weight. Although you may have been losing weight previously on your current intake, you may need to eat less to achieve a larger caloric deficit."
One way Kaufman recommends figuring out exactly how many calories you need is by taking a metabolic test. "It reveals your resting metabolic rate, aka the number of calories your body burns at rest. From this number we can determine how many calories you should consume to burn off pounds," she says. Many dietitian offices and high-end gyms offer this service.
If you don't want to shell out the cash for the test, try cutting 100-200 calories a day from your diet and see how the scale reacts.
Why not more? Though it may seem counterintuitive, not eating enough can have the opposite effect on your waistline than you're hoping for.
"When people diet, they tend to restrict calories, but if you go below 1,200 calories, you can slow down your metabolism, preventing weight loss," says registered dietitian Ilyse Schapiro, MS, RD, CDN.
Eat more fiber
Haven't you heard? One of the best ways to fight fat is with fiber. "Emerging research shows that focusing on high-fiber foods can help you shed pounds after other diets have caused a plateau, likely because the nutrient is so filling," says Dr. Sean M. Wells, the owner of Naples Personal Training.
"Shoot for at least 30 grams of fiber a day from fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains," he says.
Some of the best sources of fiber to defeat a weight plateau include:
Oatmeal (rolled or steel-cut oats)
Nuts and seeds (almonds, walnuts, peanuts, flax, chia seeds)
Berries (raspberries, blueberries, blackberries)
Beans (peas, black beans, chickpeas)
Still not convinced you should add more filling fiber to your plate? A study in the Annals of Internal Medicine found that by making one change to your diet—which is aiming to eat 30 grams of fiber a day—can help you lose weight, reduce blood pressure, and increase sensitivity to insulin. Swapping cookies for berries and white rice for barley suddenly seems way more appealing, doesn't it?
Switch from coffee to green tea
Your coffee habit may be stalling your weight loss progress. An Australian research team found that when mice consumed more than five cups of java a day, it led to increased belly fat storage. On the flip side, a different study found that subjects who combined five cups of green tea with three hours of exercise per week, lost 2 more pounds than their non-tea-drinking counterparts, the New York Daily News reports.
What makes green tea helpful with a diet plateau? It contains fat-blasting compounds called catechins, that chisel away at belly fat by revving the metabolism then speeding up the liver's fat-burning capacity. Making the switch from coffee to green tea may be just what your body needs to get back on track toward weight loss success—why not give it a go? You've got nothing to lose . . . But weight!

Cheat on your diet
We don't typically condone cheating, but when it comes to losing weight, breaking the rules may be the key to success. "When you hit a plateau, take a carb-rich free meal, otherwise known as a cheat meal or a refeed meal. After a few days, things should start to progress again," says personal trainer and co-founder of Excelerate Wellness Victoria Viola.
"When we lose weight, we inevitability also lose fat. And the less fat you have, the less leptin (the 'satiety hormone') you'll produce, which tells the brain to conserve calories to prevent starving. Research indicates that the best way to amp up leptin production is to eat more carbohydrates. Unlike fat and protein, the carbs tell your brain that you are not going to starve and to burn calories at a normal rate."
Simply put, eat a slice of pizza or a burger and see what happens. It may trick your brain into increasing your calorie burn, resulting in weight loss.
Cut back on salt
You know that sugar, your other white granular nemesis, can lead to weight gain. But how about salt? It's complicated. Short term, a high-salt diet can result in a higher number on the scale because salt leads to water retention in the body, explains Tony Castillo, MS, RDN, LDN, nutrition consultant for RSP Nutrition says. That said, water weight and fat weight are not the same and salt only directly causes the former. However, most salty snacks are big sources of sugar and fat, as well. And high intake of these ingredients is what causes long-term fat gain—not explicitly salt.
While sodium is a necessary part of any diet, the majority of adults eat way more salt than they needed. That's why Castillo recommends eating less "added salt" foods. This is an easy way to ensure you're not getting more than the recommended daily sodium intake of 2,300 milligrams and reduce intake of bad-for-you processed foods, he says. "An easy way to do this is to swap out snacks like a bag of chips for a hard-boiled egg and a piece of fruit so you are eating less salt-laden processed food," he says.
If you find you're regularly hankering for salty foods, Richards says boosting intake of potassium-rich foods like bananas, sweet potato, and spinach can help.
Eat almonds before a workout

Want to get more out of your weight loss workout? Fuel your session with almonds, one of the best proteins for weight loss. The tear-shaped nut is rich in the amino acid L-arginine, which can actually help you burn more fat and carbs during workouts, accelerating your weight loss wins, according to a Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition report.
Don't skip meals
Like picking a fight to test someone's resolve in their own beliefs, eating regularly to lose weight may seem a bit counterintuitive—but it works. "Many people think that if they skip a meal it will help them lose weight, but that's simply not true," registered dietitian and personal trainer Jim White, RD, ACSM, owner of Jim White Fitness and Nutrition Studios tells us.
"Not only does skipping meals slow your metabolism, but it also causes blood sugar levels to plummet. This will leave you feeling famished, increasing the odds you'll overeat and stalling weight loss progress." Eating a combination of protein, carbs, and fats every four hours will help keep your calorie-burn consistent throughout the day and ward off progress-derailing hunger.
Carry your water everywhere

"One of the most overlooked aspects of a weight loss plan is proper hydration," says Kelvin Gary, Owner and Head Coach at Body Space Fitness in New York City. Not only can drinking water help to flush out excess salt hanging out in your system, but it can also keep hunger at bay and help you power through workouts more effectively, accelerating weight loss effects.
Keep a water bottle by your side on the reg so you'll remember to sip throughout the day. If your urine is a dark yellow, you're dehydrated and should start sipping.
Drink more water before meals
And speaking of H2O, be sure to drink the stuff before meals, advises registered dietitian nutritionist Elisa Zied, MS, RD, CDN. "A glass or two before a meal can help you fill up and curb overall calorie intake."
Science backs Zeid's claim: According to research presented at a meeting of the American Chemical Society, study subjects who sipped two cups of water before sitting down to a meal consumed 75 to 90 fewer calories. Over a 12-week period, dieters who followed the strategy three times per day lost about 5 pounds more than dieters who didn't increase their water intake.
Make sure you eat protein regularly
You've heard it a million times before: You need to eat protein if you want to lose weight. When you consider the nutrient's stellar skill set, it makes sense: Protein can boost metabolism and even help the body retain its muscle while scorching fat. Protein-rich foods also suppress ghrelin, which is a hormone secreted by the stomach that stimulates appetite, explains registered dietitian Gina Hassick, RD, LDN, CDE, who suggests including a lean source of the nutrient with each meal.
The reason: Those who stagger their protein consumption lost more weight and were more apt to maintain their new, fit figures than those who skimped on protein at certain meals, according to recent research. That means someone who is aiming for 60 grams of protein daily should consume 20 grams at each meal, which is about what you'd find in a 3-ounce chicken breast or a 7-ounce container of Greek yogurt.
To eat more protein to overcome a weight loss plateau, try a high-protein meal plan with at least 20 grams of protein at each meal:
Breakfast – 20 g protein: 5.3-ounce container Icelandic yogurt (15 g) + 1/3 cup protein granola (5 g) + 1/4 cup berries
Lunch – 23 g protein: Black bean "burrito bowl" salad, 1/2 cup black beans (7 g), 1/4 cup chicken (10 g), 1 ounce shredded cheddar cheese (6 g), fresh tomato salsa, 1 cup iceberg lettuce, cilantro-jalapeno dressing
Dinner – 28 g protein: 3-ounces teriyaki Atlantic salmon (22 g), 1/2 cup cooked broccoli (2 g), 1/2 cup quinoa (4 g)
Ditch the booze
Alcohol and weight loss aren't just frenemies. Whatever way you slice and dice it, they're straight-up enemies. "Alcoholic beverages are high in calories, and due to the way alcohol is metabolized, someone's drinking habits often contribute to weight gain," says Lisa Richards CNC, nutritionist and founder of The Candida Diet. Even one glass of the "healthiest alcohol" (red wine, duh) is 125 calories—and that's if it wasn't a heavy pour.
Beyond that, there's the fact that "most people make way worse diet choices after they've been drinking," she says. "Consuming high-calorie, refined carbs while enjoying an alcoholic beverage aids in adding pounds and increasing your waistline." Consider a slice or piece, for instance. Even if you only have one piece (one!), you're still consuming about 250 calories—add that to the calories in your adult beverage and you've added at least 400 calories to your daily intake.
With all this in mind, if you want to lose weight without going completely alcohol-free, according to Richards, it's possible. "Drink alcohol without added ingredients like vodka or gin, and if you need a mixer, opt for a low-calorie beverage," says Richards. And if you can, eat a high protein meal before drinking, she says, you'll be less likely to crave junk.
Eat more carbs
Thanks to the keto, Atkins, and the South Beach diet, "cutting carbs" and "going low carb" have become synonymous with losing weight. So you might be surprised to see this tip on the list. But here's the thing: carbs *aren't* inherently bad. While refined carbs probably don't have a place in your weight loss plan, carbohydrate-rich foods like whole grains, brown rice, and quinoa, do! "[These] complex carbs are packed with fiber, which helps you feel full and satisfied," says registered dietitian Brittany Modell, MS, RD, CDN, founder of Brittany Modell Nutrition and Wellness. Meaning: Hello fiber, goodbye snacking!
Richards adds that eating more carbohydrates can be especially helpful for people who aren't eating enough calories, period. For example, under-eating can actually back-fire against your weight-loss efforts by sending your body into starvation mode and slowing your metabolism. "If this is you, you will have to work to rebuild your metabolism, but once it is back to a normal amount you can maintain weight loss by following a balanced diet with sufficient calories and carbs," she says.
Try meal planning
You've heard the saying "failing to plan, is planning to fail." And nutritionists stand by it. Enter: meal planning. "This simply involves planning your meals and snacks, making a grocery list accordingly, and prepping those meals on a specific night each week," says Richards. "It sounds time-consuming, but you'll actually save yourself hours in the kitchen and at the store," she says. Meal planning will also save you from resorting to Chinese takeout and pizza delivery on nights when you don't have the chutzpah to cook.
Her suggestion: Keep it fun by having a theme night (think: Mexican, vegan, Italian) every week, trying a new recipe, or having a meal prep night where you invite friends over and you all work together to plan or prep your meals.
Fitness Tips to Overcome a Weight Loss Plateau
Take your daily sweat session to the next level with the help of these fun, challenging, and invigorating fitness tips from some of the nation's top weight-loss experts.
Vary your workouts
Mix up your workout—or try a new physical activity like tennis, hiking, rock climbing, or boxing. "When you have a regular workout routine, your muscles become familiar with doing the same exercises regularly," Hassick says. "Our bodies are smart. They learn how to do those exercises using fewer calories, making your regular exercise routine less effective for weight loss."
If getting into a new type of activity isn't your cup of tea, at least, vary your routine. If you typically do steady cardio, for example, incorporate intervals. If you typically do HIIT, log a few longer cardio sessions each week. And after you're done working out, revitalize your muscles with the help of our go-to protein shake recipes.
Recruit a fitness friend
Not only can befriending someone who's fit (and willing to meet up with you for workouts) help you stick to your exercise routine, it can also push you to exert yourself a little harder, says White. Ask your fit sister-in-law if you can hit the weights with her, or ask your yoga-obsessed co-worker if you can tag along with him to a class. Befriending someone who's hyper-health-minded may be just what you need to kick-start your weight loss again.
Try interval training
Interval training is another great way to amp up your calorie burn and reach your body goals. "Interval training means accelerating your exercise speed for a short period of time and then resuming to your normal speed for a slightly longer period," Wells says. "Continue alternating between faster and slower speeds for the duration of your usual cardio routine."
For a treadmill workout consider this routine:
Warm-up: 5 minutes walking
All-out sprint: 1 minute
Break: 2 minutes walk
Repeat the pattern until you hit the 30-minute mark.
You can also vary the intensity by changing the incline. Run for two minutes on a 1% incline and then crank it up to 6% for two minutes.
Lift heavier and more strategically
When weight loss stalls, it's a good indication that your body is no longer being challenged. Or in some rare cases, it may be a sign it's being pushed too hard. If it's the former, up your strength training to make sure you add or maintain lean muscle mass, suggests Gary.
"One of the first physiological adaptations to strength training is the increase of mitochondria in your muscle cells. This helps increase your body's capacity to burn fat," he explains. Simply put, the more lean muscle mass you have, the more calories and fat your body will burn at rest. Hitting a plateau can mean that you need to modify your resistance training, adds Wells. "Sticking with one weight lifting routine for too long will bog down your metabolism and possibly expose you to overtraining. I recommend using a periodized training program where you alter the type of movements, intensity, rest breaks, and amount lifted over several periods throughout the year," Wells says.
Celebrity trainer Kit Rich agrees that muscle confusion is key to success, and suggests increasing your weights and performing fewer reps, but also lifting lighter weights and performing more reps.
Lifestyle Tips to Overcome a Weight Loss Plateau
Every successful loser knows that shedding pounds isn't just a result of what you do at the gym and what you spoon onto your plate. It's about how you live your life as a whole. Eating and exercising only take up a fraction of the day, so why not utilize those other hours to your advantage, too?
Start a food and activity journal
And be honest. You might have hit a dead end with your weight loss progress because you're eating more than you think you are and moving less than you realize. "What goes in must go down (on paper or on your cell phone). Research shows that people who journal what they eat are more successful at weight loss," says registered dietitian nutritionist Marisa Moore. "Use the journal to record every morsel of food and review it to see if there are certain triggers that lead you to eat more or less during the day. A journal can be an effective way to discover trends and uncover areas to improve, both with diet and lifestyle habits."
Get more quality sleep
Listen up, late-night Netflixers, your lack of sleep is killing your weight loss progress! More than one out of three American adults do not get enough sleep, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Not only can your lack of zzz's leave you feeling groggy it can have serious, long-term side effects and change your metabolism for the worse.
In fact, WebMD reveals that logging less than 6 hours of shut-eye can reduce fat loss by a shocking 55%—in part because when you're sleepy you also feel hungrier. "Too little sleep can lead to increased levels of stress hormones, which have been shown to cause weight and fat gain, especially in your midsection," says Hassick.
Take a rest day
And in that same vein, take a rest day or two each week. "Sometimes one of the best ways to overcome a weight loss plateau is to rest," says personal trainer Ajia Cherry, ACE, CHC, CPT. "Oftentimes focusing too hard on a weight loss goal can have a negative effect on you. Giving your body and mind the appropriate time to recharge will not only put you back on track but will also give you a moment to reassess your diet and exercise regimen. It may be time to change up one or the other or both." Taking a few days off from the gym can also ward off overtraining.
Move more (duh!)
If you regularly hit the gym and keep your routine varied, build a little extra activity into your day to burn some extra calories.
Do the dishes by hand
Take the elevator instead of the stairs
Take a walk around the block instead of grabbing a snack from the break room
While none of these things burn a ton of calories, every bit counts in your effort to get the scale moving again. For more fun ways to move more every day check out these ways to burn calories without a gym!
Power through with confidence
Sometimes when you hit a weight loss plateau, you just have to be patient and wait it out. Have faith that eventually you'll start losing weight again because you will! Because it can be hard to maintain motivation when you're not seeing results, reward yourself for healthy actions like sticking to a consistent workout routine and saying no to desserts throughout the workweek.
The trick, however, is to not reward yourself with food. Instead, try these non-food rewards:
SoulCycle classes
Night at the movies with your friends
Look beyond the scale
Don't want to literally write down non-scale victories? Fine. Still, consider looking beyond the numbers. "The way you feel, achieving greater endurance or intensity in your workouts, or simply looking better in your jeans are all reasons to celebrate that don't require you to hit a specific number on a scale," says Moore.
Celebrity trainer and creator of Methodology X Dan Roberts agrees, "Focus on the process of being healthy, lean and mean rather than just the weight loss results. In my experience focusing on only weight loss can be negative and won't lead to lifelong success."
Manage your stress levels
Brace yourself for a punch to the gut. Stress—whether it's specifically connected to your weight loss journey or not—can interfere with weight loss. "Stress literally interferes with the body's ability to drop weight," says Castillo. Here's why: chronic stress messes with our levels of the stress hormone, cortisol. And high cortisol levels have been linked with obesity and weight gain. I know, ugh.
That's why Castillo says he asks anyone who's struggling to lose weight what their stress-management practices are. Don't have one? "A great way is by starting a meditation routine, journaling every night, or even reading a few pages of your book," he says.
Make a list of "non-scale" wins
Increased confidence. Better-fitting pants. Clearer skin. Lower cholesterol. Less joint pain. Sure, your goal might read "lose x pounds", but embarking on a weight loss journey will bring many additional benefits—even if the weight loss itself has stalled. Unfortunately, these benefits often go overlooked. That's why Modell recommends making a list of "non-scale" victories every week.
"Taking time to do this can help you develop a more positive relationship with your body and the weight loss process," she says. This list might read: 'I had 2L of water on Wednesday', or 'I was about to grab candy when I was stressed but instead I took a walk around the block', or 'I smiled while looking in the mirror today.' TBH, this exercise takes less than 2 minutes, so really there's no excuse not to do it.

I have a B.S. in Math with a concentration in Computer Science. My original plan was to become a high school math teacher, but programming courses changed that plan. I worked as a Software Engineer for 18 years and changed careers to become a Property Manager. I have tutored family and friends informally for many years with great results.
I am currently studying Finance and Economics and finishing up the undergraduate program. I also have a degree in International Business from The American University of Cairo. I am a business consultant and private tutor. I speak five languages. I believe that success is the result of an intelligent effort.
What makes me a good tutor is that I am totally committed to my students and I follow the first principle of teaching: finding out how an individual learns best. Presenting concepts, principles, and ideas in the way the student comprehends easily is the key to successful teaching and tutoring. Making learning fun helps, too!
