XENON Xe 133 Gas is supplied in a mixture of xenon gas (5%) in carbon dioxide (95%). It is contained within septum sealed glass vials and is suitable for inhalation in the diagnostic evaluation of pulmonary function and imaging, as well as assessment of cerebral blood flow. Xenon Xe 133 Gas is reactorproduced as a by-product of Uranium U235 fission. Each vial contains the labeled amount of Xenon Xe 133 radioactivity at the time of calibration. The contents of the vial are in gaseous form, contain no preservatives, and are ready for use.
Xenon Xe 133 is chemically and physiologically related to elemental Xenon, a non-radioactive monoatomic gas which is physiologically inert except for anesthetic properties at high doses.
Xenon Xe 133 decays by beta and gamma emissions with a half-life of 5.245 days1. Significant radiations which are emitted by the nuclide are listed in Table 1.
The specific gamma ray constant for Xenon Xe 133 is 3.6 microcoulombs/Kg-MBq-hr (0.51R/hr-mCi) at 1 cm. The first half value thickness of lead is 0.0035 cm. A range of values for the relative attenuation of the radiation emitted by this radionuclide that results from the interposition of various thicknesses of Pb is shown in Table 2. For example, the use of 0.20 cm of Pb will decrease the external radiation exposure by a factor of 1,000.
To correct for physical decay of this radionuclide, the fractions that remain at selected time intervals after the time of calibration are shown in Table 3.
1 Kocher, David C., "Radioactive Decay Data Tables," DOE/TIC-11026, p. 138,1981.
Inhalation of Xenon Xe 133 Gas has proved valuable for the evaluation of pulmonary function and for imaging the lungs. It may also be applied to assessment of cerebral flow.
Xenon Xe 133 gas is administered by inhalation from closed respirator systems or spirometers.
Pulmonary function including imaging: 74-1110MBq (2-30mCi) in 3 liters of air.
Cerebral blood flow: 370-1110MBq (10-30mCi) in 3 liters of air.
The patient dose should be measured by a suitable radioactivity calibration system immediately prior to administration.
The estimated absorbed radiation doses2 to an average patient (70 kg) for pulmonary perfusion and cerebral blood flow studies from a maximum dose of 1110 MBq (30mCi) of Xenon Xe 133 in 3 liters of air are shown in Table 4.
*99% of activity is in lungs.
2Method of Calculation: A Schema for Absorbed-Dose Calculation for Biologically Distributed Radionuclides, Supplement No. 1, MIRD pamphlet No. 1, J. Nucl. Med., p.7 (1968).
The Xenon Xe 133 gas is supplied as part of the Calidose™ system, consisting of 3ml unit dose vials and the Calidose™ dispenser for shielded dispensing.
Normally vials containing either 370 or 740MBq (10 or 20mCi)/vial, packed 1 vial or 5 vials per shield tube, are supplied.
The NDC number for: 10mCi vial is 11994-127; 20mCi vial is 11994-128.
Store at controlled room temperature 20°-25°C (68°-77°F) [See USP].
This radiopharmaceutical is approved for distribution to persons licensed pursuant to the Code of Massachusetts Regulations 105 CMR 120.100 for the uses listed in 105 CMR 120. 547 or 120.552 or under equivalent regulations of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, an Agreement State, or a Licensing State.
The contents of the vial are radioactive. Adequate shielding and handling precautions must be maintained.
Adverse reactions related to the use of this agent have not been reported to date.
Xenon Xe 133 Gas delivery systems, i.e., respirators or spirometers, and associated tubing assemblies must be leakproof to avoid loss of radioactivity into the environs not specifically protected by exhaust systems.
Xenon Xe 133 adheres to some plastics and rubber and should not be allowed to stand in tubing or respirator containers. The unrecognized loss of radioactivity from the dose for administration may render the study non-diagnostic.
The vial stopper contains dry natural rubber latex and may cause allergic reactions in providers or patients who are sensitive to latex.
Xenon Xe 133, as well as other radioactive drugs, must be handled with care and appropriate safety measures should be used to minimize radiation exposure to clinical personnel. Also, care should be taken to minimize radiation exposure to patients consistent with proper patient management.
Exhaled Xenon Xe 133 gas should be controlled in a manner that is in compliance with the appropriate regulations of the government agency authorized to license the use of radionuclides.
Radiopharmaceuticals should be used only by physicians who are qualified by training and experience in the safe use and handling of radionuclides and whose experience and training have been approved by the appropriate government agency authorized to license the use of radionuclides.
No long term animal studies have been performed to evaluate carcinogenic potential or whether Xenon Xe 133 affects fertility in males or females.
Animal reproductive studies have not been conducted with Xenon Xe 133 Gas. It is also not known whether Xenon Xe 133 Gas can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproduction capacity. Xenon Xe 133 Gas should be given to a pregnant woman only if clearly needed.
Ideally, examination using radiopharmaceuticals, especially those elective in nature in a woman of childbearing capability, should be performed during the first few (approximately 10) days following the onset of menses.
It is not known whether Xenon Xe 133 is excreted in human milk. Many drugs are excreted in human milk, therefore formula feedings should be substituted for breastfeeding, because of the potential for adverse reactions in nursing infants.
Safety and effectiveness in the pediatric population has not been established.
Clinical studies of Xenon Xe 133 Gas did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosage range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy.
Xenon Xe 133 is a readily diffusible gas which is neither utilized nor produced by the body. It passes through cell membranes and freely exchanges between blood and tissue. It tends to concentrate more in body fat than in blood, plasma, water or protein solutions. In the concentrations used for diagnostic purposes it is physiologically inactive. Inhaled Xenon Xe 133 Gas will enter the alveolar wall and enter the pulmonary venous circulation via the capillaries. Most of the Xenon Xe 133 that enters the circulation from a single breath is returned to the lungs and exhaled after a single pass through the peripheral circulation.


Who is your inayopendelewa of Liz's leading men?
Who had zaidi class when it came to their affair with a married man?
Which of her many relationships do wewe think Elizbeth Taylor was happier in?
mashabiki wanachagua: Yes, Definatly. Liz is absouloutly gorgeous.
I am looking for a picha of Elizabeth Taylor with this car, a 1956 Continental Mark II. It was custom ordered for her and painted to match her eyes.
post a picture of liz when she was 47 au 46 years old.
I am keen to get this picture in poster au print form but i cant seem to find it in any shop! can anyone tell me what film the image comes from and where i could buy it from???? thankyou!!!!!!!


Holding something together; connecting or connectedness; construction or building, therefore new energy especially male or phallic.
It could refer to accurate insight; the ability to hone in on a central issue or point, hit the nail on the head; an attitude of toughness or coldness; a way that you or another are slowly wounding or depleting yourself. Is there something or someone you need to nail down?

LETTER: Celebrating the Constitution
Aug. 11, 2012 Updated: Aug. 17, 2017 5:10 a.m.
Celebrating the Constitution
The key to much of our work is collaboration with various agencies and organizations.
During his remarks at the Naturalization Ceremony in City Hall over the past decade, Federal Judge Stefan R. Underhill always urges the new citizens to celebrate Constitution Day.
As a result, this year, the Wadsworth Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, which participates in the Naturalization Ceremony, asked if we could collaborate in celebrating Constitution Day in September. We will do so gladly!
We will provide a display of books and audio-visual materials that we already have in the Library, but we are also seeking funds to purchase new materials. The Middlesex County Community Foundation will provide $200, I have requested $200 from the Friends of the Russell Library, and I am seeking other sources. We will prepare a nicely printed list of the resources.
I am very happy to announce that Judge Underhill will speak on Wednesday, Sept. 19, at 10 a.m., in the Hubbard Room, on "The Constitution Today."
He was appointed United States District Judge for the District of Connecticut on July 7, 1999, and sworn in on Sept. 1, 1999. He graduated from the University of Virginia in 1978 with a Bachelor of Arts in interdisciplinary studies. In 1981, he received a second Bachelor of Arts in philosophy, politics and economics from Oxford University, which he attended on a Rhodes Scholarship.
In 1984, he received his law degree from Yale Law School. At Yale, he served as Articles and Book Reviews editor of the Yale Law Journal.
Following his graduation from law school, Judge Underhill clerked for Judge Jon O. Newman of the Second Circuit Court of Appeals. Thereafter, he joined Day, Berry & Howard LLP as an associate, resident in the firm in the firm's Stamford office. In 1991, Judge Underhill became a partner of that firm, where he spent the remainder of his career as a lawyer.
In private practice, Judge Underhill handled a wide variety of Commercial Litigation, concentrating in Insurance Coverage, Intellectual Property, and Appellate Practice.
Judge Underhill has long been active in the Federal Bar Council and the Federal Practice Section of the Connecticut Bar Association. He served for several years on the Board of Directors of Connecticut Legal Services.
Join us on Sept. 19 in Celebrating the Constitution!
Arthur Meyers
Editor's note: Arthur Meyers is the director of the Russell Library in Middletown.

This week's Featured Onepager is tapa the line!
Pinchos is a local tapas restaurant and wine bar located in Essex, England.
The last few Featured Onepagers we've written up have all had particularly wonderful visuals, and Pinchos is continuing the trend this week. We love the slideshow they've featured at the top of the page (or "tapa the page" if you're just as excited about that pun as we are), though we must admit it makes us want to leave immediately and book a flight to England so we can eat Spanish tapas. That wouldn't be drastic or strange, right? Man, that paella looks good… but we digress! The background photo is another reminder of the delectable deliciousness that awaits you, but by choosing a blurred image, Pinchos keeps the focus on the restaurant information and text while providing an elegant frame that fits the spirit of their restaurant.
Pinchos' page is also really well-balanced between text and images. By featuring photos in both the main area and the right sidebar, they take turns "lifting the weight." They're also staggered so that the sit has a nice, natural flow as you scroll down, rather than feeling weighed down at any particular point. In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, the combination of images and headers breaks up the text into digestible chunks, just like how small plates of tapas allow you to move from one dish to the next without getting too full on a single one. However, that's not to say that you'll leave Pinchos in any state other than satisfied and full of wonderful Spanish cuisine.
Congratulations to Pinchos on being la pata negra!

Phoenixville / Social Issues
Grants Totaling $315,000 to Assist in Ida Recovery
November 2, 2021 November 2, 2021 - by MyChesCo

Groups reach across county lines to help Mont Clare residents cope with flood devastation.
PHOENIXVILLE, PA — Imagine having no choice but to spend your chemotherapy money on a trash dumpster for the debris covering your property. Or settling in a new country with your family, only to end up with your home destroyed and no insurance.
Those were just two of the situations facing Mont Clare, PA, residents after Hurricane Ida and its accompanying floods. Nearly two months later, more than 150 households are still coping with homes left uninhabitable.
Fortunately, Mont Clare has concerned neighbors who are eager to help, and two grants will go a long way toward assisting them in that mission.
Open Hearth, Inc., a non-profit organization serving Chester County and portions of Montgomery County, received $300,000 from the Phoenixville Community Health Foundation to help Mont Clare residents affected by Ida get their systems back up, including electricity, heating, and water.
The Jaycees in Phoenixville received $15,000 for the organization's "In This Together PXV Fund" – originally intended to assist with the COVID pandemic, recently pivoted to benefit victims of Hurricane Ida as well.
Soon after Ida hit, a partnership in the neighboring borough of Phoenixville came together with the intent of helping victims on the other side of the river separating Chester and Montgomery counties. Participants include Open Hearth, the Jaycees, the Phoenixville Community Health Foundation, and Karin Williams, director of the Phoenixville Office of Emergency Management.
"Phoenixville is fortunate to have the kind of strong community partnerships that enable us to lend a hand to our Mont Clare and Port Providence neighbors in their time of need," Williams said.

Dr. Martin Luther King: Graven Image, Forgotten Legacy (An Essay From February 2009)
In a time when many black Americans have co-opted Dr. Martin Luther King as the hero of Black America, and during this, the forty-first year since his death, it's important that we look not only at Martin Luther King, the man, but also at the breadth and the depth of his vision.
At the time of Dr. King's death his opposition to hatred and injustice had become more inclusive than just civil rights for black Americans. He spoke out against economic oppression regardless of race; he was outspoken against the war in Viet Nam and he was bold enough to venture into the gay community by turning to an openly gay black man, Bayard Rustin, as a mentor (pictured here with Dr. King). In fact, while Dr. King may have delivered his famous 'I Have A Dream' speech during The March on Washington, it was Bayard Rustin who put the march together. Mr. Rustin was the 'architect of The March on Washington.
These facts about Martin Luther King often go unspoken in the black American community, but if we took time to look at the road Dr. King traveled we wouldn't be in awe of his liberal, humanitarian ways.
His journey began years before he entered the struggle for civil rights. During his formative years as an intellectual he studied the words not only of Jesus the Christ and Frederick Douglass, but of Henry David Thoreau, Mahatma Gandhi and Rheinhold Niebuhr as well because he understood that in order to battle inhumanity he must first understand the depth of humanity. This is something so many of us have failed to realize about the vision of Martin Luther King.
I know it was something I hadn't understood during the time Dr. King was on this earth.
I can remember, as a young black gay man, two days before my fourteenth birthday, standing in front of the T.V. in our living room watching the newsflash of his assassination. Reflecting on that evening, I see a young man who understood enough of the struggle of being black in America, but I also see a young man who felt no one would ever understand the struggle he was going through of being gay in America. I now see I was wrong.
I was wrong because the vision Martin Luther King laid before us did include me as a gay man. It included all peoples who are victims of hatred and injustice.
The person who knew Martin Luther King best, his wife, Coretta Scott King, spent the final years of her life embracing gay rights and speaking openly that her husband, if he had lived on into his later years, would have embraced gay rights. She knew of Martin's dream and she carried it to the end of her days.
Dr. King's vision was dynamic in that it transcended the darkness of hatred and ignorance and embraced the light of love. Now I understand that on the evening Dr. King took his last breath, I, a young black gay man, did inhale the sweetness of his dream and is why I continue to savor his words and the words of his wife who continued his dream:
"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."~ Dr. Martin Luther King
"We are all tied together in a single garment of destiny . . . I can never be what I ought to be until you are allowed to be what you ought to be," ~ Dr. Martin Luther King
"Like Martin, I don't believe you can stand for freedom for one group of people and deny it to others." ~ Coretta Scott King
"Homophobia is like racism and anti-Semitism and other forms of bigotry in that it seeks to dehumanize a large group of people, to deny their humanity, their dignity and personhood," ~ Coretta Scott King


If you've never had a pimple in your life, you're probably not human. From the age of twelve going forward, my face has always been plagued with spots. They started on my forehead and then as I got older, progressed to mostly showing up on my cheeks and chin. (As I have a cleft chin dimple, this was prime acne real estate.) There is something uniquely humiliating about having acne – that it's associated with being a greasy little teenager and by association bad hygiene and immaturity. A dermatologist prescribed me the pharmaceutical drug doxycycline and an absurdly expensive retinoid cream, and my face did get better. But there's no getting around that certain time of the month when my hormones just jump up, bringing me right back to the skin I had when I was fourteen. Acne, for all of its discontents, is natural. Yet it's thought of as a "before" picture, represented in media as a stand in for ugliness and weirdness. "It made me feel like a Dalmation," Chelsea Frazer, Eugene Lang College '21, said.

Acne can be physically painful and no one wants to keep it on their face, but on the flipside no one should feel ashamed for having it or not being able to get rid of it. The medications I took by no means eradicated all of my acne. If you have whiteheads, blackheads, scars, cystic acne, or anything else, your face is normal. Ananya Shrivastava, Eugene Lang College '22 said that "Acne just makes you feel uglier than usual. It makes you feel conscious of showing people your face." No one should feel like that. Let's rob acne of its power by talking about it in public and not thinking of it as gross, but as something most people have dealt with, something normal. And no one's worth should be measured by the attractiveness of their face. Linguist Erin McKean wrote that "Prettiness is not the rent you pay for occupying a space marked 'female.'" Though this specifically refers to women, it applies to anyone feeling insecurity. Your face does not have to beautiful to be worth loving, and beautiful is not the only good quality out there. After washing my face every single day and night and still having red welts crop up on my cheeks I tried to tell myself that my acne was like me. Stubborn, persistent, and nothing can keep it down.

Falconetti began her career as an academic advisor and has served in a variety of roles focused on areas including student services, academic affairs, economic development, resource development, and institutional research. She has also served at the national level as the Special Assistant to the first Deputy Assistant Secretary for Community Colleges in Washington, D.C.
Prior to being named President of Polk State, Falconetti served as the Vice President of Institutional Advancement at Virginia Western Community College, and as the Executive Director of the Virginia Western Community College Educational Foundation, Inc.

"I extend my sincerest thanks to students, faculty, staff, the District Board of Trustees, alumni, donors, and everyone who makes a Polk State education possible for our students. Remember – student success is our success, and I could not be more thrilled to work in partnership with the community to ensure access to affordable, quality higher education in Polk County."

Q: C - fwrite() not writing first chuck of data from network buffer I'm trying to practice my C programming by making a program that essentially does the 'cp' command to a dedicated server on my home network.
The communication seems to be fine but for some reason the first 8kb of data sent over the wire is not getting written to the file using fwrite... but the PNG header is partially being sent.
Client.c
uint32_t buffersize = BUFFERSIZE_M; // 8192
size_t file_index;
last_iteration = 0;
char confirmation[BUFFERSIZE_M] = {0};

            if(filelen > buffersize)
            {
                // Read full buffersize
                // subtract buffersize from filesize to determine remainder
                // if remainder is > buffersize -> repeat; else read last segment of file.
                // fileindex is used to guide the filepointer to where the buffer endpoint was/is.

                fread(buffer, 1, buffersize, file);
                file_index = buffersize;

                fseek(file, 0, file_index);
                #ifdef DEBUG

                getchar(); // Only here so I can visually step through sends

                send(sock, buffer, strlen(buffer), 0);

                filelen = filelen - buffersize;
                file_index = file_index + buffersize;

                // Read socket for confirmation to continue
                // read(sock, confirmation, BUFFERSIZE_S);
                recv(sock, confirmation, BUFFERSIZE_S, 0);

Then the rest of the broken PNG file is missing pieces as you can see from the 0ae9 in the broken PNG where it's supposed to be 00e9.
Can anyone point me in the direction of some C network buffering resources? I cannot seem to find anything on Youtube other than people discussing how to just create sockets.

A: From @Barmar in the comments:

The problem is here: send(sock, buffer, strlen(buffer), 0);

That solved the issue and everything is working perfectly now.

World Canada And Others Say Patience Running Out With Iran Over Downed Plane
Canada And Others Say Patience Running Out With Iran Over Downed Plane
Thursday, December 16, 2021 at 2:41 pm | י"ב טבת תשפ"ב
OTTAWA (Reuters) -
Rescue workers search the scene where an Ukrainian plane was shot down in Shahedshahr, southwest of the capital Tehran, Iran, in Jan., 2020. (AP Photo/Ebrahim Noroozi, File)
Canada, Sweden, Ukraine and Britain on Thursday said they could consider new steps in line with international law against Iran if it failed to respond by Jan. 5 to demands for reparations after the downing of a passenger airliner last year.
Most of the 176 people killed when Iran shot down a Ukrainian jet in January 2020 were citizens from those four countries, which created a coordination group that seeks to hold Tehran to account.
"The Coordination Group's patience is wearing thin," it said in a statement, adding that the group had pressed Tehran to open talks on reparations and to deliver justice but said Iran had shown it was reluctant to respond in a timely manner.
It said Iran should respond by Jan 5 or the group would "have to seriously consider other actions to resolve this matter within the framework of international law" but gave no details.
Tehran says Revolutionary Guards accidentally shot down the Boeing 737 jet and blamed a misaligned radar and an error by the air defense operator at a time when tensions were high between Tehran and the United States.
Last month, families of victims alleged in a report that high-ranking Iranian officials were responsible. In June, Canada said it had found no evidence that the downing of the plane had been premeditated.

Carlos Raúl Morales Moscoso (born 7 October 1970) is a Guatemalan diplomat and former government official. He served as Minister of Foreign Affairs of Guatemala from September, 2014 to August, 2017.

Career

Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs
Due to the foreign policy of Guatemala towards Belize, he left office in November 2011, so he could continue serving as the executive secretary of the Commission of Belize of Guatemala, until this unit was shut down by president Pérez Molina in February 2012.

After that, he assumed the office of the vice minister again, and held the position until his nomination as minister. During his time in office, he handled the bilateral and multilateral agenda, among other tasks.

Minister of Foreign Affairs
Morales was sworn by President Otto Pérez Molina as the Foreign Affairs Minister on 18 September 2014. He replaced Fernando Carrera, who was designated as the Ambassador to the United Nations. Morales was the third foreign affairs minister under Perez Molina's administration.

Following the political turmoils in 2015, President Pérez Molina resigned, and his vice president, Alejandro Maldonado, took his place to lead the government until the end of the presidential period, due on January, 16th, 2016. Under the new administration, the cabinet was summoned for full review. After the first week of the transition government, minister Morales was confirmed to remain in office.

And on 16 January 2016, minister Morales was confirmed to continue in his post under the new administration of president Jimmy Morales. This made Carlos Raul Morales the first foreign affairs minister to serve three presidents.

In August, 2017, a new political crisis emerged, as the rumors that president Morales had the intentions to remove commissioner Iván Velásquez from the International Commission Against Impunity in Guatemala (CICIG). On such a short notice, a presidential trip to the headquarters of the UN took place on 25 August 2017. The topics in the agenda remained unknown until a meeting with Secretary-General of the UN, António Guterres, took place on the same day. The Government of Guatemala did not confirm nor denied the fact that the removal of Iván Velásquez had taken place during the meeting.

On 27 August, first thing in the morning, president Morales issued an executive order declaring commissioner Iván Velásquez "non grato", and expelled him from the country. As Minister Morales refused to sign the executive order, he was removed from office along with one of his vice ministers, Carlos Ramiro Martínez. In the afternoon, news was known of the resignation of another vice minister of foreign affairs, Anamaría Diéguez.

Personal life
Morales was born to José Guillermo Morales Silva and Dora Amelia Moscoso in Chiquimula, although he grew up in the town of Morales in Izabal Department. He frequently visits his hometown.

Davis scores go-ahead TD, Old Dominion edges Norfolk State
- Aug. 31, 2019 10:48 PM EDT
NORFOLK, Va. (AP) — Lala Davis scored a late touchdown as Old Dominion came from behind in the final six minutes to defeat intra-city rival Norfolk State 24-20 on Saturday in the first game at ODU's reconstructed S.B. Ballard Stadium.
Trailing for the first time - 20-17 with 5:51 remaining - Old Dominion reached the red zone on the strength of a 15-yard run by Davis and a 31-yard pass from Stone Smartt to Eric Kumah. On third-and-1 from the 7, Davis ran for 5 yards for the first down then added 2 yards for the go-ahead touchdown on the next play.
On the Spartans' ensuing possession, Lance Boykin intercepted a pass at the Norfolk 35 with 1:22 remaining and the Monarchs ran out the clock.
FCS-member Norfolk State fell behind 14-0 in the first quarter but rallied with two touchdown passes and a go-ahead rushing touchdown from third-year starting quarterback Juwan Carter. His 9-yard run gave the Spartans a 21-17 lead with just under six minutes to go.
After two sustained drives in the first quarter produced the 14-0 lead for the Monarchs they were held to a 26-yard third-quarter field goal by Nick Rice prior to the winning drive.
Old Dominion leads the limited series 4-0.


You are not aware of this, but your partner is starting to think that you are not doing as much as you can to save your relationship, and it is something people are not happy with. You might be abusing trust and help from this person without noticing. Try to change it as soon as possible if you still have faith in your relationship.
You seem to be willing to bring to an extreme the quote "let yourself be loved". It will not help you at all: if you still believe in true and endless love, stop acting like that. To receive you must give, and you should think if you are giving as much as your partner deserves. Probably you are not.
Your working style is so special that it makes a unique person out of you. Your attitude makes a big difference within your company and among your colleagues. You obtain better results than your companions even though you spend the same time as they do.
If you decide to make your life by working in the field of investigation, music or art, that skill might be fully by your side. Some of these fields will catch you attention today. The attraction will be so high that you will plan taking some courses related to it. Learning new things day after day is something which enriches our souls.
We might see our health improved by taking a glass of red wine as long as we do it in a moderate and safe way. Fat cells cannot be created in our organism if we take the routine of taking a small wine every day. That is why dietitians tend to add this drink to the slimming diets they design.
Wine is not only good for fat cells: it also helps our cardiovascular system and makes it easier for us to get rid of cholesterol. Now you have an excuse to tell people who misjudge you when they see you with your red wine glass in your hand.


Now there's something you've all been waiting for. The return of cereal!
Kashi Honey Almond Flax is truly my favourite cereal ever. Well since I grew past the age of Fruit Loops anyway. With vanilla soy milk and blueberries it might just surpass my love of AB & banana toast.
For lunch I took a trip down to the waterfront with my friend Christy and her darling little boy Cameron. They were visiting from Nanaimo for the day and I had hoped to take them to Red Fish Blue Fish but the line was like an hour long, so we opted for The Flying Otter instead.
I had the one piece halibut fish and chips…with half chips and half salad.
Look at those blue eyes! Can you say heart breaker?
We had parked the car right outside of Picnic Coffee so we decided it was a sign that we should grab some coffees and enjoy some more chitchat at one of their little sidewalk tables. I had a coupon for a free Americano which the guys turned into an iced bevvie for me. Yum.
This needs to be the next downtown Victoria eatery I try for lunch!
I snacked on fake popcorn cakes to tide me over until dinner.
For dinner I had Michael over to help me eat of the leftovers from my taco dinner with Tiffaney. We started out with those deeeelish Lime Tostitos dipped in this FF Spicy Black Bean Dip that Alecia put in my TJ's treat bag a couple of months ago.
Of course we had beers. Sadly the beer selection at my house isn't as good as what we usually have at his place.
But I made up for my poor beer choices by serving up delicious, crispy, colourful taco salads! Lettuce, tomato chunks, cucumber, carrots, red onion and avocado topped with shredded cheddar and a mixture of the leftover seasoned black beans and ground beef.
After the photo shoot we slathered on salsa and sour cream as dressing and used more chips and scoops for our meals. I heart taco salad.
After dinner we sat side by side with our laptops. He worked diligently on his work projects and I worked diligently at catching up on Google Reader and eventually remembering I was supposed to be booking our campsite for the upcoming long weekend. A couple of PB cups may have helped kick start my brain for that. Chocolate is brain food you know.

What a fabulous day! So...how'd you meet this great guy? Is his big dog a bull mastiff?
August 19, 2011 at 5:21 a.m.
I love the guys at Picnic! They're always so friendly and welcoming. Definitely one of the best coffee places downtown!

Tracking TV: Is this the end of the overnight sensation?
Torin Douglas questions whether TV audience figures reflect contemporary viewing habits
Ever since TV technology made it possible to measure overnight ratings, there have been some in the industry who wish it hadn't. Programme controllers and advertisers have been accused of not giving new dramas or comedies or entertainment formats enough time to establish themselves. Journalists are blamed for rushing to judgement with headline-grabbing claims that can damage a programme's prospects.
And, as viewing habits change, overnight figures are giving a less accurate picture of a programme's total audience – including hit shows such as Game of Thrones and Love Island.
Is it time we found a new way of reporting TV audiences?
Sky UK's director of programmes, Zai Bennett, recently issued a clarion call for the industry to change the way it reports and focuses on viewing figures.
In a blog, he claimed that broadcasters were failing to count millions of viewers and should better reflect the way people are now watching TV – with more viewing online, on mobiles and on-demand, more "binge" and catch-up viewing, and some programme episodes released online before they're broadcast or as box sets.
Bennett warned that, by not reporting all viewing figures, TV broadcasters were "underselling themselves" – in marked contrast to online players such as Netflix and Amazon Prime.
Barb, the joint industry TV research body, is on the case – but is it moving quickly enough?
For years, its "gold standard" time-frame for the Top 30 TV audience charts has been the seven-day "consolidated" viewing figure, not the overnight rating.
Barb also records any viewing on a TV set up to 28 days after the first broadcast and, via its Project Dovetail, online viewing through TV players.
"We're going to completely change the way that we measure and report on the performance of our programmes"
But how many people in the industry, apart from researchers, ever bother to look at these? Many may think that Bennett has a point.
"The way the industry talks about TV viewing isn't reflective of the ways people are watching today," Bennett wrote. "We're supportive of Barb and its work with Project Dovetail to improve the way that TV viewing is captured, but there are gaps in the audience numbers that the industry uses.
"Any new TV series that we release as a box set on-demand, alongside a traditional week-by-week transmission, such as Tin Star, Riviera or Fortitude 2, can have more than 60% of its audience completely missed in official figures," he claimed. "So, at Sky, we're going to completely change the way that we measure and report on the performance of our programmes – and we won't talk about overnights at all."
He said that, at the end of a series such as Tin Star, Sky would report on its "total programme consumption" – by "using Barb's seven-day cumulative audience figures alongside our own internal data that Barb isn't able to capture, such as any on-demand viewing of a show before it has had a linear transmission."
That pronouncement has caused a stir at Barb and among other broadcasters. ITV's managing director for commercial, Kelly Williams, says: "I sympathise massively with Zai as a programme-maker and commissioner, but we must be careful not to compare apples and oranges, and not mix different metrics, particularly for advertisers.
"We must not fall into the trap that the online industry falls into almost daily, in claiming stuff that isn't necessarily true. At a time when Procter & Gamble and other advertisers have become highly critical of the digital companies' claims, we've got to maintain the rigour around TV audience measurement."
Barb CEO Justin Sampson says that it can already do what Sky is asking for and is discussing this with them. "For two years, we've been publishing our weekly TV Player Report, which shows the viewing to on-demand and live-streamed content via mobile and online TV apps," he explains. "Now, through techniques such as audio-matching, we can also measure programmes that can be viewed before they are broadcast – but we do need the co-operation of the broadcasters (and, increasingly, the rights holders) to do so."
Sampson says Top of the Lake on BBC Two provides a good example: "Before the new series was broadcast, viewers could watch it on-demand on a TV set, a tablet, a PC or a smartphone – 643,000 people watched episode 3 before it was broadcast; 768,000 viewers watched it live or on the same day as broadcast on a TV, tablet, PC or smartphone. Over the next seven days, 799,000 people watched it on timeshift or on-demand, and a further 582,000 viewers saw it in the three weeks after that."
That gave a total of 2,792,000 viewers – compared with the "overnight" figure of 768,000 – all measured by Barb.
Sampson adds: "Sky is now actively planning to measure programmes such as Tin Star on Barb, using the same approach that the BBC has with Top of the Lake. The next stage of Project Dovetail, which is due to launch in March 2018, will bring more precision to this kind of analysis."
Barb's data is already used by the BBC to help it understand how viewing habits are changing. Head of audiences Sue Gray says: "Overnights are still useful for many genres, as they capture the 92% of BBC viewing that is either live or on the same day as live. But we are highly aware of the overnights' limitations when considering young audience behaviour and genres such as drama, comedy and children's."
Last year, 98% of viewing of BBC news and weather was live, while it was 94% for sport and only 74% for comedy and 66% for the soaps. For drama series, the live audience was just 61% of the total. For instance, Sherlock's audience grew by 59% in the seven days after its 8 January broadcast and by 15% in the following three weeks, giving it a total of 10,968,000 viewers.
BBC analysis shows that younger viewers – the 16-34s – are more likely to come to a series later in its run. Therefore, relying on overnight ratings can understate a show's appeal to the young. For example, only 6% of the audience who watched Apple Tree Yard on the day of broadcast were aged 16-34, but they formed 15% of viewers between eight and 28 days later.
The success of ITV2's summer breakout hit, Love Island, was also understated by traditional viewing figures. Its average TV audience was 2.5 million – with 1.9 million watching on the day of broadcast and 650,000 on seven-day catch-up.
But it also had no fewer than 1 million live streams and 1.8 million catch-up streams on the ITV Hub. Analysis by Thinkbox, the TV marketing body, suggests that many young people watched it live on their mobiles because "those still living with mum and dad could avoid having to squirm through the awkward sex chat – they could still enjoy the sex chat but separately".
Unfortunately for ITV, those extra live viewers didn't emerge publicly until Barb published its TV Player Report, which showed a huge increase in viewing to the ITV Hub.
ITV's Williams says: "We knew how well it was doing but it wasn't public at that stage. But now that we know how well it did, we can shout about it for next year."
And that's the problem with taking a longer view of audiences. By the time the 28-day Barb figure – or Sky's "total programme consumption" figure – is published, the caravan has moved on, the ad breaks are over and the media (not to mention social media) are talking about different, newer shows.
Many will support Bennett's contention that the industry should put a greater focus on the totality of the TV audience, but it is hard to know where, how and – perhaps most importantly – when this should be done.
