How to Seal Wooden Furniture

Like good sanding, careful sealing can make all the difference to your results in refinishing furniture. Sealer coats are used between finishing steps to ensure even penetration of stains and finishes, to prevent bleeding of stains and fillers, to form a good base for the finish, and to make the finished surface smoother. In this article, we'll discuss some effective ways to seal wooden furniture.

Choosing a Sealer

The traditional sealer for shellac, lacquer, and natural varnish finishes is thinned white shellac. This basic sealer is simply a mixture of 1 part white shellac (4-pound cut) and 3 to 4 parts denatured alcohol. Shellac is suitable for most refinishing jobs, but it cannot be used with polyurethane varnish or with water or NGR (non-grain-raising) stains.

Where shellac cannot be used, the easiest sealer is a commercial sanding sealer. Sanding sealer dries quickly and provides a very good sanding base; it can be used with varnish, shellac, or lacquer. If you plan to finish the piece with polyurethane varnish, read the label carefully; sanding sealer may not be compatible with polyurethane. Sealing is not necessary before finishing with a penetrating resin sealer.

Under natural varnish or lacquer finishes, some professionals prefer to seal the wood with a thinned mixture of the same finish. To make a natural varnish sealer, thin the varnish with turpentine or mineral spirits to make a 50-50 mixture. To make lacquer sealer, mix lacquer and lacquer thinner in equal parts. These sealers cannot be used with shellac or with polyurethane varnish.

Polyurethane varnish demands special treatment. Read the labels carefully when you buy. Some polyurethanes can be thinned with a specific thinner; with these varnishes, the manufacturer may recommend thin varnish coats as sealers. Some polyurethanes do not require sealers. If you must seal stain or filler before polyurethane is applied, make sure the sealer is compatible with the varnish. Otherwise, use a penetrating resin sealer. This finishes the wood completely, but you can apply polyurethane over it if you want a smoother finish.

Sealing Technique

Because sealers should not interfere with other finishing steps, they must be applied in thin coats. Before applying the sealer, make sure the wood is clean; remove any dust with a tack cloth. Apply the sealer with a clean brush, flowing it on evenly and quickly along the grain of the wood. Make sure all surfaces are evenly covered, and pay particular attention to any end grain. End grain that isn't properly sealed will absorb stains and finishes more deeply than the rest of the wood in a piece.

Let the sealer dry completely: about two hours for thinned white shellac, about one hour for commercial sanding sealer. Then sand the surface very lightly with fine-grit sandpaper, grade 7/0. The wood must be very smooth, but the sanding shouldn't penetrate the sealer. Remove all sanding debris with a tack cloth.

If you're applying a finish directly over sanded wood, more than one coat of sealer may be necessary to close the wood's pores completely. In this case, let the first coat of sealer dry completely before applying another coat. Very porous woods may require several coats of sealer.

If you're expecting your refinishing work to last, and you're expecting a high-quality return for your investment, proper sealing can get you what you are looking for.

Random Me Stuff

I thought I’d share a bit more about myself.

I was raised in a very religious family. There is a minister or evangelist in every sentient generation. But there are those like myself who have been deemed the “Black Sheep” who stray away from religious conveniences.

Even though my mother did her level best to make my brother and I “Good Christians,” my brother is an unaffiliated believer and I don’t belief at all. If you follow me closely you will see that I don’t make statements regarding faith; because I don’t do faith. When I do some work, it isn’t because I have heard somebody say this is how it’s done with no explanation. I am not a person who can do aimless. I don’t drive without a destination. I don’t take random walks unless I have a goal. I can’t do for no reason. So when I work, the work has to make sense to me. All the parts.

I have been doing this long enough to have a personal experience with much of what I do. And I take cues from nature for guidance. Nature always has a reason. Nature doesn’t do religions. If it doesn’t make sense or it isn’t efficient, then nature gets rid of it. And that is how I work.

I don’t do Gods and Goddesses the way religious pagans do. I don’t see them as anything greater than myself. It’s never been proven that they are immortal, or have a power that ordinary people don’t possess. Actually I find them mostly fictitious. But I recognize that they exist for a purpose. And that purpose is to explain something or teach a lesson. Like fairy tales. They are an exaggeration of an aspect of one’s personality. So when someone says they feel drawn to a particular deity because it reflects them. I have been drawn to deities before and still. I don’t bow down before them and call to them. I just look and see what I can learn from them and then pay it forward to another. Making a sacrifice to a picture is completely ridiculous especially when homeless and indigent people walk up to you all the time. Make your ebos that way.

I feel some kind of way about death. I do. I feel the same way about birth. The energy that animates our bodies exists. I don’t think any sane person can deny it. But where it came from before birth or where it goes after death has never been revealed. Until it has, I’m a wait and that’s it.

I don’t do ghosts. Paul Mooney hit it on the head when he said, “….if ghosts existed, the Black ghosts would be terrorizing the descendents of white slave owners.” And clearly they aren’t, so…..

I do advocate energies. Plants, animals, inanimate objects. I only advocate that which I have witnessed. And that’s why my work is strong. Because it’s authentic, because I am authentic.

Alright. That’s enough for now. There is always more later.

The Messengers of Death

The Messengers of Death

A Mystery in Provence

Book - 2008
Average Rating:
Rate this:

"Stylish . . . Magnan blends elegant clue laying and deft characterizations that strike to the core of human frailties, all within a detective tale with a theme as old as Cain and Abel, as new as tomorrow's headlines and as eternal as the Greek myths that inspire Magnan's fiction."
--- Publishers Weekly (starred review), Best Mysteries of 2008

Last year Death in the Truffle Wood introduced renowned French crime writer Pierre Magnan to rave American reviews. Now the celebrated Commissaire Laviolette is back in a second delectable mystery set in Provence.

Emile Pencenat is in a cemetery, designing his own ornate tomb. In a disused postbox by the gate he discovers an envelope addressed to a Mlle Veronique Champourcieux. He is puzzled, but being a former postman, he dutifully purchases a stamp and posts the letter. When the body of this same Mlle Veronique is later discovered---pinned to her own piano by a bayonet attached to an ancient ri'e---Commissaire Laviolette is coaxed out of retirement to solve one of the most bizarre crimes imaginable.

Tautly plotted and brimming with suspense, The Messengers of Death is a story of dark vengeance and avarice that will thrill and intrigue Magnan's ever-growing audience in the English-speaking world.

How To: Install & Use the New Nokia Z Launcher (Even if You're Rooted)

Install & Use the New Nokia Z Launcher (Even if You're Rooted)

While their merger with Microsoft has lead to a seemingly complete halt of new device development, some Nokia employees are still hard at work to bring new software to the table.

Nokia's latest project, Z Launcher, is a home screen launcher that aims to give you what you need, when you need it, with little to no effort on your end. By no means is Z Launcher a powerhouse with features like Nova, but what it does have is a simple design with a really interesting way of finding information and apps on your phone, but more on that later.

Currently, Z Launcher is in a limited pre-beta release and is only optimized for a few phones, which means official downloads are in short supply, but who cares about "official"?

Note: If you are rooted, you will need to have the Xposed Framework.

Step 1: Download the APK

Since Z Launcher isn't widely available, simply download the zLauncher.apk (mirror link). After it's downloaded, make sure you have Unknown Sources enabled, then install it like any other app.

For the moment, Z Launcher has only been optimized for the Nexus 5, Samsung Galaxy S5, Galaxy S4, Galaxy S3, Moto X, HTC One, and Sony Xperia Z1, so keep that in mind when installing.

Extra Steps for Rooted Users

Since it is in pre-beta, and the developers do not want to be swarmed with emails about incompatibilities between Z Launcher and other mods, root users are left out in the cold. Normally, that means you'd stop here, but don't worry, I've got you covered.

Step 2: Download the RootCloak Module

To bypass the root check of Z Launcher, you will first need to download the Xposed module RootCloak.

Just as the name implies, RootCloak stops specified apps from realizing they are running on rooted phones, so go to the Download section of Xposed Installer and download. Don't forget to Activate and Reboot afterward.

Step 3: Add Z Launcher to RootCloak

Adding Z Launcher to the list of RootCloak enabled apps is as easy as opening it, tapping the + icon up top, and selecting Z Launcher.

After its added, go to your Settings app and Force stop Z Launcher from the Apps section.

Step 4: Using Z Launcher

Now that we have Z Launcher installed and have removed any root-related roadblocks, go to Settings -> Personalize -> Home screen and select Z Launcher as your new default.

The main screen of Z Launcher has a clock and calendar widget along with a list of apps and contacts. The list changes depending on where you are, the time of day, and other data that the launcher has collected about your usage habits, but don't worry, it's all kept private and secure. As of right now, you cannot add more widgets, but that is a planned feature.

What drew me to Z Launcher was the fact that you can draw letters on the home screen and a list of apps, contacts, and even Google searches will come up. That means that writing "C" on your home screen will bring up all the apps and contacts you have that start with C, and if you keep adding letters, it will start searching Google as well.

As a side tip, swiping to the right will input a space, swiping to the left will delete the last character, and two swipes to the left erases everything.

Other than the drawing feature, there isn't a whole lot to explore with Z Launcher. You have the standard dock and app drawer...and that's about it. Remember that this is still in beta, so expect bugs and some hiccups here and there. If you find anything else interesting tucked into the launcher, be sure to let us know in the comments below.

Unfortunately I am unable to get past the activation screen after following all the steps using a nexus 5.

Just that there are no activations available

Sorry about that. It looks like Nokia has stopped accepting devices, but if you are up to it you can download this modded version that should install without checking with Nokia.

My pugs refuse to eat! I am frustrated and do not know what to do. Any suggestions?

They do not get many treats during the day. They will not eat any combination of food. It seems that when I put the food on the floor, they make an attempt to eat it.

I must be mad - I am signing up for thirty hubs in thirty days.

  1. 2uesday profile image82
    2uesdayposted 7 years ago

    I am going to give this a go but the only way I will be able to do it is to post more than one hub some days and none on others. This is because of other commitments, so I hope it is OK to approach it like that.

    This feels like make or break for me I need to speed up my writing as I am spending too long on each hub. This seems like a good way of trying to stream line the way I write.

    Here goes I am off .... to write a hub....

    Wish me luck smile 2uesday

    Thank you Dame Scribe - it is going to be a challenge for me but I want to improve at writing Hubs a quicker rate by doing this. smile

      2uesdayposted 7 years agoin reply to this

      now you've made me laugh New Yorker.

      Oddly it is coming up to the time when I will be quite busy. Boundaries and deadlines are useful sometimes to push me sometimes to fit more into the time I have. I am off now to see if I can get everything done in time to start another hub. roll

  6. 2uesday profile image82
    2uesdayposted 7 years ago

    Hi Haunty - the quick answer is I try to write about subjects I know about even if I end up having to do some research on them.

    At the moment with twenty-nine hubs still to write I do n't know what I will write about.

    The ideas usually takes shape in my mind as I have breakfast.

    So some days I just want to tell people about one of my interests and I write about my allotment/vegetable growing or a 'How To' on that . Other days I might do a story or if I hear something on the news and it sparks an idea I will go with that.

    I also enjoy writing about England and holidays to Italy and Greece, usually photographs I've taken spark off ideas for them.

    So when I write will be planned but probably the topics will appear to be random but the main theme will be that they are things I have an interest about.

    Thank you for asking me this question Haunty, you made me stop and think about it which was good.

    1. Haunty profile image85
      Hauntyposted 7 years agoin reply to this

      Thank you, 2uesday. I just wanted to know how you do it and see if it's different from my way. Sounds like they are so much the same.
      Back when the first hubchallenge set off, I met a guy who decided to do the whole thing snake-themed. So he produced hubs about snake wine and the like.
      I'll check your hubs out as they keep coming. smile

    Welcome to the HubChallenge, 2uesday! You'll have fun and learn a lot from it.

    To answer some of the questions I saw above....

    You can publish them one-a-day, two-a-day, or even all 30 on the 30th day.  It doesn't matter at all.  Publish them however you want.  The hubs can be anything you want to write about as long as it conforms to HubPages TOS, of course.

    KCC Big Country thanks that is great just what I need to be confirmed.

    Well done on a hundred in thirty days- now that would be too much for me.

    Thank you everyone for the support, with regards 2uesday.

Tips For Sticking To Your Diet

Updated on February 24, 2013

Weight Loss Plans

There are many wonderful diet programs on the market to help all of us who want to feel better and look better.

Some weight loss plans involve restricting carbohydrates, some have meal replacement shakes or bars and some will provide all the meals you need. All of these plans offer different ways to reach the same goal, less calories.

When we take in less calories than we burn, we lose weight.

Most weight loss programs will work as intended if the plan is followed. Unfortunately, they are frequently hard stick to for more than a week or so.

Tips for sticking to your diet

Green Tea
Green Tea | Source

Drink Tea

Commit to 2 cups of green tea or Oolong tea per day. Both teas have many health benefits including a boost to your metabolism. Oolong tea has also proven to decrease the absorption of calories.

Use Mouthwash

Rinse with mouthwash after eating your intended meal portion.

The minty fresh taste will curb your craving for another helping and nothing really tastes good for about 30 minutes anyway.

As a bonus, your teeth, gums and breath will thank you.

Pistachios, walnuts, almonds and pumpkin seeds

Prepare for Snack Cravings

Having good snack foods available is crucial for any diet or healthy living program. Daily meals may be all planned out for you but when a snack craving hits, it is hard for even the most dedicated dieter to stick to the program.

People eat snack for many different reasons that go beyond hunger such as fulfilling an oral fixation or habitual snacking. These snacks can easily become the diet killers .

A few good snacks to have on hand are:

  • Grapes
  • Mini oranges
  • Frozen blueberries
  • Watermelon
  • Natural almonds
  • Pistachios
  • Brazil Nuts
  • Walnuts Baked crackers
  • Natural or light butter Mini popcorn bags
  • Snap peas
  • Baby carrots
  • Low fat string cheese
  • Hardboiled egg

Some snack choices are better than others depending on the weight loss program that you are on. When you’re counting carbohydrates instead of calories, your snacks should accommodate that.

It’s important to remember to portion out your snacks the same way you do your meals. It may help if you put the intended amount of food into a bowl and put the bag or box away.

Coffee with Flavored Creamer
Coffee with Flavored Creamer | Source

Coffee's Count

Unfortunately, we often overlook the liquid calories we take in everyday when we are trying to slim down. Black coffee has 0 calories which is great!

Those delicious coffee drinks made at the espresso stands are a different story however. The calories in one coffee can equal a whole meal or more.

If just the thought of giving up your delicious coffee is enough to make your blood pressure rise, there may be a way you don’t have to.

Sometimes all it takes is a little compromise. I will admit there is no substitute for a triple caramel macchiato with a whipped cream topping made by your favorite barista but, they do make some delicious non-dairy coffee creamers for use right at home.

These flavored creamers are not calorie free but they can easily be added into your daily intake without ruining your whole day’s effort.

Stay Hydrated

Thirst will often disguise itself as hunger. If your body doesn’t get enough liquid it will first signal thirst and if that doesn’t work, it will signal hunger in an attempt to get what it needs.

Water will not fill you up if you are genuinely in need of food but often you will end up feeling satisfied because thirst was the problem.

Reduce the Juice

Juice has a lot of sugar and calories that people don’t count on.

If you love having your morning orange juice, have it. Just limit to one cup per day.

Chia Seeds
Chia Seeds | Source

Add Chia Seeds

Chia seeds are extremely helpful when it comes to getting healthy and losing weight.

When these seeds mix with liquid they expand to 9 times their original size. That will help you feel full longer with less food.

They also have many nutrients including high levels of antioxidants, omega 3, protein and many more. Chia seeds are tasteless and do not require grinding or refrigeration.

They can be added to salads, meats, smoothies, vegetables or any other foods.

Chew Gum

Chewing gum helps the weight loss struggle in two ways.

The flavor will help cut cravings and it will satisfy the oral fixation factor of snacking.

If you aren’t actually hungry, a stick of gum will temporarily do the trick.

Stay on Schedule

Eating meals on a regular schedule can be enormously beneficial for your body and any weight loss goals.

Our bodies adapt to a routine rather quickly and if it can depend on getting fuel in regular intervals it will perform better and burn calories quicker.

When we eat erratically, it confuses our bodies. Our metabolism will slow down and we will have less energy. Our bodies will try to conserve nutrients and fat because it isn't sure exactly when it will be fed again.

MCG drafts compensation plan for 300m IAF zone

The MCG has prepared a plan to compensate families that live within a radius of 300 metres around the IAF ammunition depot’s restricted zone. A senior official in the civic body said a Rs 4,900-crore compensation plan had been drafted to create a new 300-metre restricted area around depot and submitted the plan to the chief minister. The Punjab and Haryana high court has told the state government it will consider a proposal of reducing the restricted zone around the ammunition depot from the current 900 metres only if it undertook to remove all encroachments in a 300-metre area. The high court’s directions came after the defence ministry said it wanted a 300-metre area around depot completely encroachment-free before formally notifying a new restricted zone. The 900-metre restircted area around the IAF depot has seen large-scale encroachment over the years, with thousands of families now living there without access to basic amenities. “As per rules, there is no provision to rehabilitate those who encroach on defence land,” said a highly placed source in MCG.

“The only way out is to compensate such encroachers. This is the reason we have been asked to work out a compensation amount that to be paid to the 1,400 families that are presently residing in the 300-metre area, in case they are removed,” the source added. The MCG estimates around 50,000 people live within a 300-metre radius of the IAF depot. Based on the number of families, this works out to Rs 35 lakh for each family. “However, since MCG does not have this money and will never be able to pay this sort of compensation, the state government will have to pay this money.

We have submitted the compensation report to the state government and the final decision will be taken by the chief minister himself,” the MCG source said. Opposition parties have opposed this plan. “By offering this compensation, the BJP government is trying to adopt a divide and rule policy. I have been fighting this case in the high court and Supreme Court and our demand is that the entire safety zone should be removed. We will not allow this 300-metre restriction to be imposed at any cost,” said Congress councillor Gaje Singh Kablana. The next date of hearing is on November 17

Court defers IAF depot decision

Courtesy TNN

The two lakh residents living in the area within 900 metres surrounding the IAF ammunition depot failed to get any relief from the Punjab and Haryana high court on Monday. The court postponed the matter for hearing on July 17.

According to the area councillor who was present in the court, Gaje Singh Kablana, the judge deferred the matter after the counsel representing the Centre informed the court that the decision on the issue is yet to be taken by the Cabinet, and sought three months’ time.

Residents complained that despite assurances from the chief minister, the case is yet to be resolved. “The chief minister, local MLAs and the MP keep talking about the possibility of reaching a decision favourable to residents, but the court has still not given its final verdict. The court keeps postponing the hearing as the government has failed to make its stand clear. It appears that both the state and the central government want to keep lingering since this 900 metre issue can be used in future to garner votes as has been done in the past as well,” said Mukesh Kumar, a Palam Vihar extension resident.

Later in the day some of the area residents met BJP president Amit Shah in Delhi, who assured them that he will come into this matter.

MCG notice at variance with Supreme Court order

Ambiguity continues to prevail over the fate of thousands of houses that fall within 900 metres of the IAF ammunition depot. Even though the Supreme Court last week directed status quo to be maintained in the matter, the Municipal Corporation of Gurgaon (MCG) has issued a notice stating that the unauthorized structures will be demolished in compliance to the Punjab and Haryana high court order.

Last week, the MCG had filed an FIR against 55 people out of which 24 have already been arrested for carrying out construction within the restricted zone. According to sources, the authorities seem to be only following the directions given by the high court in 2008 to demolish these unauthorized colonies keeping aside the Supreme Court order given by justice D K Jain and justice Anil Dave.

However, the local councillor who petitioned the Supreme Court against the high court order is planning to move a contempt of court application. “What the authorities are doing is a clear violation of the Supreme Court order. They cannot do so and I am planning to file an application in this regard. The court has clearly directed that status quo in respect of nature, title and possession of the subject property be maintained. Till the next hearing in the case, nobody can demolish the structures that came up in the area before December 7, 2011,” said Gaje Singh Kablana.

In a press release issued on Monday, the MCG had stated that all the authorized structures falling within 900 metres of the ammunition depot and within 100 metres from the Arjangarh Air Force Station would be demolished and the cost incurred in demolishing them would be borne by the owners themselves.

Gaje Singh Kablana – Our Superhero

Gaje Singh Kablana, the Councillor of Ward No. 5 is beaming, and so are his supporters. Numbers are swelling constantly at his office near Palam Vihar Extension, on Wednesday afternoon. Celebrations are starting. Dressed in a pristine white kurta pyjama, Kablana is ecstatic as he informs people about the Supreme Court decision delivered that day –  staying the demolition of structures in the 900 metres disputed area around the Air Force Ammunition Depot. This territory falls within his Ward.

Kablana is fighting the court case on behalf of the affected people residing in the disputed land. He has just returned from the Supreme Court with the good news.

A major part of Ward no. 5 falls in the disputed area  – and includes Sheetla Colony, Sheetla Enclave Phase 1,2,3; Ashok Vihar Phase 3, Ashok Vihar Extension-B, Dharm Colony and nearby areas. Kablana asserts that the government will be forced to provide justice to the people living in these areas; as they have invested hard earned money to buy land here.

“Not even a single brick will be demolished as humanity is on our side,” says Kablana. He is unhappy with the way the MCG and the administration are functioning in the city. No one wants to work for the people, says the Councillor.

Kablana informs that a Supreme Court Bench, comprising Justice Jain and Justice Dave, has given a stay order on all the decisions given by the Haryana High Court – pertaining to the disputed land around the ammunition depot. “The Court has issued notices to all the stake holders—including the defence authorities—to find a reasonable solution to the problem. This could either be shifting of the depot, or denotifying the area – as it is inhuman to play with the lives of lakhs of people,” says Kablana, much to the happiness of his supporters.

The government of Haryana has been clearly instructed that all constructions till December 7, 2011 will remain as they are, in the 900 metre disputed area; and no demolitions should take place. He also asked the people to refrain from building anything further.

Kablana informs that he has been fighting the case against the government single-handedly; and now the 900-metre Sangharsh Samiti has joined hands with him to fight against this injustice. “Our contention is that the Haryana High Court has issued double orders in the same case, and this is wrong. Secondly, why is the High Court silent on the  demolition of HUDA colonies and the Maruti factory, that also fall in the disputed area,” he alleges.

In addition to the problems related to the disputed area, Kablana says that officials have stopped issuing power connections to house owners, and that is creating a lot of problems. “Where will people go in the darkness? The roads are in a bad condition, the sewage and sanitation system is absent in this Ward, and we are left with no time. We are expending our energies just fighting for justice,” he says.

Kablana is one of the rare MCG Councillors who has passed an MA course, and also holds an MBA degree. His seventeen year stint in the Air Force, he says, is helping him in the social and political work; as he is very organised and disciplined.

“My family is very happy and supportive of the work I am doing for the society. I have two sons and a daughter.  Though they want me to spend more time with them, they like it when people come to me and appreciate the work we  do,” he says; referring to the throng of supporters who are now planning for the next parliamentary elections.

WIAW- 3/21

Good morning sunshines! I’m so glad Wednesday is here for so many reasons. But first, I’ve got to be honest with you. I’ve been dirty little liar for a few days. Mostly it was lies of omission, but still, I gotta fess up. I’m excited today because Chris comes back from Las Vegas! That’s right. He’s been in Vegas since Saturday for the bachelor party of a friend who’s wedding he’ll be the best man in this summer. I didn’t talk about it on the blog thanks to some wonderful blogger safety advice from Julie.

It was probably pretty obvious because I’m not a very good liar, and there were some giveaways like our friend who came to visit (they were flying out together) how I couldn’t sleep in on Saturday, as if that were ever possible (I was really up taking the boys to the airport). I’ve also been eating a lot cheese! (Chris is lactose intolerant, so I generally refrain from eating cheese when he’s around. I took this as an opportunity to eat so much of it that I never want to see it again, and it worked! Turns out I didn’t miss it as much as I thought).

So there you have it, he comes home this evening, which means I don’t get to see him until after work. That means today will be slow as molasses, but I’m sure it’ll be worth the wait. I told him to take lots of pictures (I’ve never been to Vegas before). I’ll post them if you’ll forgive me for being a liarpants. Deal?

Now, on to business. I have book club tonight, so I wanted to get my workout in before work. I was up at 5:30 to run 3 miles and complete a modified version of Alyssa’s Ultimate Butt Workout. I skipped 6,7,8 and 10 because I was short on time, but it felt good to work my legs again. I don’t do a lot of leg work while I’m half marathon training, but I figured since I’m not running again until Saturday, I could stand to be extra sore for a few days.

The eats! (I couldn’t think of a transition between sore legs and eggs… wait, oh man.)

Breakfast was a departure from my norm for sure. Wanting to squeeze as much cheese into my last single lady day as possible I made an egg and muenster cheese sammich on gluten free bread with jelly.

It was good, and it definitely kept me full until lunch time, but it was a bit too heavy for first thing in the morning. It was a treat, but I couldn’t do it every day.

Lunch was very similar to last week

A garbage bowl salad with iceberg, hummus, an apple and black beans. I had some black beans leftover from the weekend, so I threw them in for extra veggie protein, but they didn’t jive with the salad very well, so they probably won’t be repeated.

My afternoon snack was the same old (in fact, I forgot to take a picture of it, so I’m recycling one)

craisins and almonds. I was still a hunger beast yesterday though, so when I came home, before my run, I had the last of my beloved peanut butter cereal bars

I love these. I’m pretty sure they’re for kids, but I don’t care.

After my run I came back and made BFD,D (breakfast for dinner, duh)

It doesn’t look very healthy, but it was veggie packed; they just happen to be very well camouflaged. My omelet was full of a yellow bell pepper and shredded carrots. I like my foods to be in the same color family. Bring on the beta carotene! On the side I had a baked potato that I made this weekend, but didn’t eat, so I chopped it up, browned it in a pan, and called it hash browns! Immediately after this picture was taken, these characters were added to the party

ketchup on the taters. salsa on the eggies. Makes for an ugly picture but a delicious dinner.

I finished the day with a mug ‘o gfree granola and soy milk.

All in all, it was a yummy (and eggy!) day. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ll be counting the hours until quittin’ time!

Hope you have something wonderful to look forward to.

Arthritis due to other bacteria, left elbow

Diagnosis Code M00.822

ICD-10: M00.822
Short Description: Arthritis due to other bacteria, left elbow
Long Description: Arthritis due to other bacteria, left elbow
This is the 2018 version of the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code M00.822

Valid for Submission
The code M00.822 is valid for submission for HIPAA-covered transactions.

Code Classification
  • Diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue (M00–M99)
    • Infectious arthropathies (M00-M02)
      • Pyogenic arthritis (M00)

Information for Patients

Infectious Arthritis

Also called: Septic arthritis

Most kinds of arthritis cause pain and swelling in your joints. Joints are places where two bones meet, such as your elbow or knee. Infectious arthritis is an infection in the joint. The infection comes from a bacterial, viral, or fungal infection that spreads from another part of the body. Symptoms of infectious arthritis include

  • Intense pain in the joint
  • Joint redness and swelling
  • Chills and fever
  • Inability to move the area with the infected joint

One type of infectious arthritis is reactive arthritis. The reaction is to an infection somewhere else in your body. The joint is usually the knee, ankle, or toe. Sometimes, reactive arthritis is set off by an infection in the bladder, or in the urethra, which carries urine out of the body. In women, an infection in the vagina can cause the reaction. For both men and women, it can start with bacteria passed on during sex. Another form of reactive arthritis starts with eating food or handling something that has bacteria on it.

To diagnose infectious arthritis, your health care provider may do tests of your blood, urine, and joint fluid. Treatment includes medicines and sometimes surgery.

Free User Icon

This is the User icon for Windows 10. Here we go. Optimized for 32x32 px, these are the simplest icons in the line style. Downloadable formats are PNG and SVG, among others. Icons8 icon pack is unique in providing a huge number of icons designed by the same team of four designers who create the new icons every working day in the same style and with the same quality. Same cool as the Bat Face, huh.
It is the drawing of an enclosed outline of the front profile of a person. The outline includes the head and shoulders. The outline looks like a man, or a woman with short hair.

Related icons are the icons with matching tags, as well as all profile icons. All icons are in the same flat style. You can either download free PNG icons or buy SVG vectors

Idea of User Icon by Ivan from Icons8

We've received the idea on December 24, 2011 and created the icons on January 30, 2012

Register, profile, login and logout

Story about User Icon

Sure, these free vector icons could be a great way to polish up your social networking app—or, if you’re anything like me, you could download the pack, print all of the silhouettes of people out on super huge paper, spend hours trimming and gluing them to cardboard, and then stand them up around your home to fill all of the holes you have in your life. I’d love to tell you more but my fake roommate is calling me.

Usage Story about User Icon

If ever you are wondering who the user is, it’s you. Don’t forget that you are an equally important part of this computer thing as well. Without the user, things wouldn’t work, maybe not even the internet—as powerful as it is by itself. So keep that in mind whenever you feel as small as a speck of dust in this universe.

user icons
As the user, there are a lot of very crucial things that you are in control of, from your cutting edge desktop wallpaper to your meticulously selected profile photo. Thus, it only makes sense for you to choose your user icon well. It can define who you are, like whether you are a human male or a human female.

male female user icons
Choosing a user icon can also lead you to the bigger questions such as, “Do you have a moustache?” and “What hair color suits you best?”

If along the way you change your mind about your user icon, we can probably make some special arrangements in our top secret internet laboratory and get you a symbol that best matches your hair. Here are some of the other options:
  • Orange hair
  • Blonde hair
  • Pink hair
  • Grey hair – for the old lady in all of us

Crying Icon in iPhone Style

This is a Crying icon. We've made it in iOS style, first introduced in iOS version 7 and supported in all later releases up until now (at least iOS 11). This style is based on thin two-pixel lines and is optimized for 50x50 px. Unlike other vector icon packs that have merely hundreds of icons, this icon pack contains 12,300 icons, all in the same style and quality.
It is a smiley face crying. There are two eyebrows, a downturned mouth, and a teardrop on each side of cheek. The facial features are contained in a round head. These features are on most keyboards.

Xin Wang @ Ion Orchard, Singapore

6 Apr

Dear Food lovers,

I’ve got to admit, I have a thing for Hong Kong Milk Tea. This café serves the authentic HK milk tea or also known as the pantyhose milk tea (絲襪奶茶).
Many Milk Tea drinkers would say the first criterion of a good cup of milk tea is its ‘smoothness’ (how creamy and full-bodied it is). Another criterion for a tasty milk tea is the residue of froth left inside the lip after some of the milk tea has been drunk. This white froth means that the concentration of butterfat in the evaporated milk used is high enough.

Anyway, that was slight information on Hong Kong Milk Tea, so back to where I was, we decided to do a pitt stop at Xin Wang Hong Kong Café as we were exhausted and somewhat hungry.

Xin Wang Hong Kong Café offers 200 items on its menu. Ranging from simple recipes characteristic of the typical Hong Kong and Macau cafes, home recipes, local Singapore favourites, dim sum and teatime snacks.
The café opens till late on most nights and offers soft cushion based booth seating for their customers to lounger around chit-chatting in comfort whilst listening to the background music of retro Chinese hits.

Hot HK Milk Tea & Iced HK Milk Tea @ SGD3.00

Egg & Ham Sandwich @ SGD3.20.

Baked Chicken Chop Rice with Melted Cheese @ SGD 10.50.

Switching Off

I have just returned to work after a short holiday.  This was a long weekend of redneck wonderment.  We shot guns, threw axes, drank and we lounged in the water.  One evening I got pretty intoxicated and when I say intoxicated I mean I the events I am recounting are testimonies from other people.  I can only assume I was actually there.

I do remember, however, having to pee.  So I got up, walked over to the lake, fell over and promptly pissed all over myself with the choreography of a Laker girl.  It could have been a dance.  After everyone was finished pointing and laughing I propped myself up and decided that peeing next to a large tree would be safer.  I stumbled over to the tree and began to pee again.  I then fell over and continued my brief tradition of pissing all over myself.  It was a glorious moment and I remember being really, really happy.  “Why” you ask, “would I be so happy to piss all over myself?”.  The simple answer is that it was the type of reckless abandon I had not afforded myself in some time.

Yeah, it was one of those nights.

Yeah, it was one of those nights.

Just a few days prior I was stressed out beyond imagination.  I had not had a vacation in a long time, not a real one.  I have been busy murdering the cute little woodland creatures that so bless this Earth and things only got busier.  I was saving all my pennies to buy a bulldozer so I could run over that dickhead who thinks he’s the first one to call me Billy the Exterminator.

"You're like, Billy the Exterminator right?!"

“You’re like, Billy the Exterminator right?!”

There comes a point in our work lives where we find ourselves so consumed with work that we completely forget about ourselves.  Even on weekends we think about the job.  There is a lingering afterglow of stress that follows us like a bad broccoli fart.  Even when the opportunity for a vacation arises you often tell yourself that you don’t want to go!  You are so consumed that you justify your feelings with the notion that your absence might affect your work load later.  It’s utter fucking horse shit.

So fast forward to me pissing on myself.  Actually, maybe just after that,  I don’t need to relive it again. Shame is harder to wash off than campfire smoke.  At that moment work was not even in my brain.   It’s not that I didn’t care, it’s that I didn’t even think about it.  Once you release the tether that attaches you to your obligations, there is a sense of release and peace.  It’s like taking a much needed piss,  maybe not on yourself mind you, but cathartic none the less.

Vacations are not a reward.  I hate that our occupations make us believe that. It is as if  it is something we must earn with sweat and stress.  Taking time for ourselves is a necessity and should be a requirement for employment.  Bitterness, resentment, health issues and subsequent shit productivity ensue otherwise.

and life will be all like WHAAT?!

and life will be all like WHAAT?!

So as I went back to work this week and continued smash small woodland creatures apart and poison the rest, I did it with renewed vigor and enthusiasm.  The stresses I had the week before didn’t seem nearly so daunting and I solved many of problems I had previously struggled against with amazing ease, like Justin Bieber did when he set out to make the worst music in the universe and taint the waters of the talent pool for centuries to come.

So reach down, deep inside and find that dial.  Turn your Give a Fuck Meter to zero and go do something that to you, is soul food, even if that means pissing all over yourself.
