      Given what's left i think just putting him all-in and check/shoving to induce are fine, he won't have Kx that often and he'll probably stack off with way worse. I'd likely just put him all-in unless i know he's capable of aggression himself.

Germany to charge foreign drivers €130 a year

Draft law would apply to motorways, with German drivers being reimbursed through taxes.

The German government plans to charge foreign motorists up to €130 a year to drive on the country’s motorways.

Alexander Dobrindt, the German transport minister, unveiled his controversial road toll plans on Thursday (30 October). The measures, which would come into force in 2016, would bring in an estimated €500 million a year.

The fee per car would depend on its environmental impact, up to a maximum of €130. German drivers will have to pay, but will be reimbursed through their vehicle tax. Foreign drivers who plan a short stay in Germany would be able to pay €10 for ten days or €22 for two months. They can pay the fees in advance over the internet or at petrol stations in Germany or close to the German border. Non-payment would result in a fine of €150, with cars monitored by roadside cameras.

Dobrindt, a member of Bavaria’s Christian Social Union (CSU), the sister party of Chancellor Angela Merkel’s Christian Democratic Union (CDU), is convinced that the plans do not discriminate against foreign motorists and would survive a court challenge. He says the plans are “fair and reasonable”.

The plan may yet be reviewed by the European Commission.

JAY-Z Just Dropped the Music Video For "Family Feud" — Starring Beyoncé and Blue

Winter is here! JAY-Z and Beyoncé have officially released the music video for "Family Feud," a song from the rapper's Grammy-nominated album 4:44, on Tidal. In the video, directed by Ava DuVernay, Queen Bey dons a long, flowing headpiece like the regal goddess that she is — or as one fan put it, "like Lady Olenna from Game of Thrones." We couldn't agree more. But that's just the tip of the iceberg; there are also celebrity cameos from familiar faces like Michael B. Jordan, Thandie Newton, Mindy Kaling, Brie Larson, Jessica Chastain, Omari Hardwick, and Trevante Rhodes in a futuristic mini movie. Watch a heart-pounding teaser above (and peep Blue Ivy's cameo!), and catch the full video below, available at no cost thanks to Tidal's 12 days of free streaming, which runs until Jan. 5.

Anushka Sharma's ‘Pari’ Trailer Is Finally Out And We Are Shaken & Stirred!

Anushka Sharma's ‘Pari’ Trailer Is Finally Out And We Are Shaken & Stirred!

We've been warned. We've been terrified. And most importantly, we've been waiting with bated breath for the day we get to know a little more about what the Anushka Sharma starrer Pari is all about. Today is that day.

The promos have been getting a lot of views ever since the first poster release in January. And with every new picture and clip that was shared on social media, fans everywhere have been gearing up for the much-anticipated trailer that may be able to explain what it all means.

If that wasn't enough, trust Pari to have successfully scared the living daylights out of us on Valentine's Day, and give the celebrated day of love just the tiniest touch of evil. *shudders*

Is Anushka's character the reincarnation of the devil itself? Is there more than one of them? So many questions!

After months of eerie posters, chilling sneak-peeks, and gory teasers that have sent chills running down our spines, the much-awaited Pari is finally out with the full trailer.

And if you thought you were scared enough the first time around, we must ask you to brace yourself, and perhaps watch this trailer in broad daylight, because the trailer is not going to soothe your nightmares.

Subscribe to POPxoTV

If you aren't convinced of Anushka's mind-blowing skills already, this tweet from the super adorable and supportive Virat Kohli may seal the deal! (#HubbyGoals, am I right?)

Directed by Prosit Roy, with Parambrata Chatterjee, Rajat Kapoor & Ritabhari Chakraborty in pivotal roles, the movie releases on 2nd March 2018, and is definitely going to be a must-watch for all you horror film lovers out there! Excuse me while I go and turn on some extra lights and grab that copy of Hanuman Chalisa!

Contact us now

We solve email deliverability issues

How many of your emails are moved to spam folders, are delivered too late or not delivered at all? Email deliverability issues can be caused by database problems and bad content.

We tracked down the inside scoop on what boatbuilders are up to next.

Azimut Grande 95RPH

Grande Ambitions

Stringent regulations can significantly increase operating costs of yachts, and nowhere is this more apparent than in Europe. “The Azimut Grande 95RPH has an overall length of nearly 29 meters, but it falls within the 24-meter cutoff and therefore can be registered as a pleasure craft,” says Francesco Ansalone, Marketing Director, Azimut Yachts. “This is a distinction which offers the boat owner serious advantages.” At the same time, this boat appeals to that megayacht sensibility.“The Azimut Grande 95RPH features a highly innovative exterior design with a style that meets the needs and tastes of a worldwide clientele,” Ansalone says. “What’s more, there is an incredible sense of space in the cabin, in the saloon, and definitely on the flybridge.”

You Won’t Believe This!

No matter how low your opinion of George Galloway may be, you’ll be astonished at the “debate” between Galloway and Richard Perle on Abu Dhabi television. See it now on Power Line Video.

I thought Galloway had bottomed out when he referred to the “crazed Zionist Crusader fundamentalists who got us into this [Iraq] war,” but he descended still lower when he interrupted Perle with an interjection of, “Show us the shekels, Richard.” Oh, and he supported Iran’s nuclear effort, too.

This originally appeared on Memri TV, and they kindly shared it with us. MEMRI is a great organization that merits financial support from those who are able.

Also new on Power Line Video: Film of a cordon search by American and Iraqi troops, in which all appears to go smoothly and even amiably, until a hidden weapons cache is discovered near the end of the clip.

Lots more to come. If you check the horizontal toolbar at the top of this page, you’ll see that we’ve added a link that says “Send Us Video.” Anyone having video footage, shot by yourself or someone else, that you think is newsworthy, can click on that link and send it to us as an email attachment. If the file is too large for that to be practical, send an email and we’ll reply with mailing instructions.

Osseous Grafting / Guided Tissue Regeneration

Osseous surgery is a procedure that reshapes the bone which holds your teeth in place. Osseous surgery commonly treats periodontitis. Patients with periodontitis experience defects in the bone around their teeth. The osseous surgery removes those defects. Prior to the surgery, the patient undergoes a periodontal treatment that consists or scaling and root planing. A local anesthetic is administered to minimize the pain. Once the roots are cleaned, the dentist uses a drill and sharp dental tool to reshape the bone surrounding the teeth. Depending on the extent of the defects, the deformed bone is removed, and the rest is shaped. Bone grafting material is used where the defects are too large to be treated with only reshaping. Once the bones are back to their original state, the gums are stitched back into place. Osseous Grafting is a routine procedure, with a high success rate.

In Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #26, from writer Kyle Higgins and artist Daniele di Nicuolo, Lord Drakkon's victory seems assured—unless the Rangers can find a way to team up with another team of Power Rangers they've never met before! This issue features a main cover by Jamal Campbell (Green Arrow), with variant covers by Jordan Gibson (America) and Carlos Villa (Lockjaw).

Even more fan-favorite Power Rangers join the battle in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers 2018 Annual #1, from fan-favorite writers Kyle Higgins, Ryan Parrott & more, along with artists Marcus To  (Guardians of the Galaxy), Dylan Burnett (Interceptor) & more!

ITC Global Launches World's First Satellite Communications Service for Oil & Gas and Mining Markets, Using New iDirect X7 Modem

Nov 05, 2013, 10:00 ET from ITC Global

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Nov. 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- ITC Global, a leading provider of satellite communications to remote and harsh environments announced today that it has launched the world's first production service for oil & gas and mining clients utilizing the new X7 remote modem, from iDirect.  ITC Global's new X7 based satellite network represents a significant improvement in both broadband speed and network availability.  Customers operating in remote and harsh locations can benefit from high speed performance of 20Mbps or greater and improved availability, even during adverse weather conditions.  ITC Global is the first major satellite communications provider to adopt the X7 remote in a production network for the energy and mining markets.

The X7 remote and upgraded Evolution iDX 3.2 software were initially released by iDirect earlier this year.  The new remote platform was specifically designed to deliver multi-megabit broadband speeds over satellite.  The satellite remote uses a new Adaptive Time Division Multiple Access or Adaptive TDMA technology that significantly improves network performance during heavy rain, snow or other weather conditions that traditionally present a challenge for satellite based networks.  The system is also optimized to take advantage of next generation High Throughput Satellites (HTS) planned for launch by major spacecraft operators over the next two years.

ITC Global provides communications solutions exclusively to industrial operations in remote and harsh environments.  To ensure X7 deployment readiness, ITC Global worked closely with iDirect to rigorously test the new X7 and Evolution iDX 3.2 software, under a variety of operating conditions and application environments.  The system exceeded performance expectations, and ITC Global's new iDirect powered network is operating X3, X5 and X7 series modems simultaneously in the same network and is operational on both C and Ku band satellites.

"We take great pride in providing innovative solutions using the latest in satellite technology," said ITC Global, Chief Technology Officer, Chris Hill. "But our clients operate in extreme locations, so we also take the critical nature of their communications very seriously.  We thoroughly test every piece of equipment and software before it ever gets deployed in a customer network.  The new iDirect X7 remote represents a significant leap forward in satellite communications performance and network availability.  Our new services powered by the X7, will help us meet the ever increasing bandwidth and performance demands from our clients."

"We engineered the X7 and iDX 3.2 to deliver breakthrough gains in speed and availability," said Rob Kilroy, regional vice president, Americas, iDirect. "We are encouraged to see partners like ITC Global embrace our technology to launch high-performance services that set a new standard in the industries they serve."

Projects Abroad

Kari Todd - Care, Care & Community in Ghana

Three years ago, after my junior year in high school, I had the opportunity to volunteer and work in Accra, Ghana through the Projects Abroad 2 Week Special programme. I was nervous about being away from home and living in a foreign country for two weeks, but I was also really excited at the opportunity to travel to a new place where I knew I would meet many new people and be exposed to a completely new culture.

This blissful happy feeling lasted all the way until I got to my new temporary home, a house about an hour outside the city. As I walked through the door to my new room I realised “I’m really doing this. No turning back now”. The thought both terrified and excited me. I spent the rest of the night talking with my roommate about what our first day of work would be like.

Sports area

The following morning, my roommate and I met with the other people we would be working with and headed to the primary school where we would be doing our first project. The school we went to was made out of brick, had a number of small classrooms, and even a small courtyard, but the building needed a lot of maintenance.

We spent that week painting the exterior and part of the interior of the building. Though the work was more difficult than I anticipated, it was rewarding to know that we had left a lasting positive impact on the school and got the chance to meet a lot of awesome kids.

Games at placement

After the weekend of my first week, during which we went to visit the slave castle at Cape Coast, the other volunteers and I gathered our things; we were moving into the city of Accra to work for the second week.

My second week in Accra was by far the best. Every day the other volunteers, who had become my good friends, and I commuted to a local orphanage. The first few hours there, we did similar work to what we had done at the primary school the week before. Our projects included mostly painting and decorating the exterior of the building.

At my placement

The best part of the day was in the late afternoon when all of the children returned from school. At the end of the day my friends and I got the opportunity to play games and hang out with all of the amazing children who lived there at the orphanage. We drew chalk figures, taught them how to blow bubbles, and had drumming lessons. My favourite evenings in Ghana were the ones when we were there sitting around playing with all of the kids.

Though short, my time in Ghana left a permanent impact on my life and personal perspective. From the moment I got off the plane I noticed that everyone around me was so friendly and open even if they were not living in favourable conditions. Fishing boats Witnessing this and experiencing the kindness of the people in Accra inspired me to pursue a career where I can help better the living standards of those around me.

As a result of my experience in Ghana, I am now pursuing a career in Global Human Rights and Development. My dream is to be able to positively impact the communities around me. Hopefully when I return to Ghana in the future I will be able to repay the citizens of those communities for contributing to an experience that changed my life.

INTERNATIONAL: Le Pen's strategist plans PR offensive

PARIS: Far-right leader Jean-Marie Le Pen's campaign strategist Martial Bilt is waging a media relations war as the second round of the French presidential elections loom.

Bilt said he is planning a PR blitz over the days leading up to the 5 May vote, when Le Pen will go head-to-head with current president Jacques Chirac.

The campaign will feature intense media relations activity, with Le Pen making at least two media appearances a day in a bid to gain as much coverage as possible.

Bilt said he also expected more than 100,000 marchers to take part in this week's annual National Front march, set to be held in Paris, honouring Joan of Arc.

Le Pen's second major public appearance is set for Marseilles after the march, with a third scheduled for Lyon, but Bilt said they were 'unable to find anybody to rent us a meeting hall'.

Bilt said problems such as this were unique to Le Pen's campaign and led to the decision to focus his PR on maximising media coverage.

'Such (media) events are certainly more cost-effective, given our limited resources. Our financial means are limited and our resources are several times less than those Chirac has at his disposal,' added Bilt.

The National Front is hoping to win at least 30 per cent of votes on 5 May. When Le Pen eliminated prime minister Lionel Jospin in the first round of the elections last month, pollsters forecast Le Pen would do well to notch up 20 per cent in the second round.

Further clashes are expected this week between Le Pen's supporters and his opponents at the National Front march in Paris. Authorities have reportedly made plans for 3,000 police officers, including 1,600 riot police, to be ready to react to any violence.

Strategies To End Cyberbullying

Stopping Electronic Aggressors in their Tracks

Posted Feb 18, 2013

Social media outlets like Facebook, Twitter, and have, along with gaming websites, become popular haunts for cyber-bullies.

Cyber-bullying is defined as any nasty or harmful electronic communication, and it is becoming more and more prevalent.  One study out of The Pew research center estimates that 90% of teens will be victims of some sort of cyberbullying at one point or another.  Another survey (cited recently by the NY State Assembly in a memo accompanying antibullying legislation passed last June) found that found 18% of New York high school students had been bullied on school property during the previous year, while nearly 16% had been cyberbullied through electronic communications such as email, instant messaging, and text messages.  Likewise, according to a poll by the AP 21 % of students acknowledged participating in bullying activity.

Statistics aside, Cyberbullying has had sometimes tragic consequences.

Many were horrified about the reported death of a Massachusetts 15 year old who killed herself after allegedly being bullied, both on Facebook and in person, for months by other students.    Massachusetts has since passed antibullying legislation. So has NJ, the state where a Rutgers freshman killed himself after his roommate live-streamed his sexual encounter with another man.  The roommate has since been convicted of violating privacy laws and has been sentenced to prison.

Like those in Massachusetts and New Jersey, The New York State Senate and Assembly have passed a new Cyberbullying provision to the Dignity For All Students Act. The provision, which Governor Cuomo has said he will sign, will establish protocols dictating how schools should respond to cyberbullying, harassment, bullying and discrimination, as well as how they can develop bullying prevention strategies and work with law enforcement when appropriate.

Despite such legislation, guidelines on electronic harassment and cruelty remain murky, with schools in the throes of litigation on several issues. For example, state and federal courts are currently debating whether a student can be suspended for posting a disparaging video on YouTube and whether a principal can search a cellphone just as she or he can look in a locker or backpack. So far lower court rulings have been contradictory; the answers to these and other questions about cyberbullying remain unclear.

Meanwhile what can victims, as well as their parents, guardians, and therapists, and educators do?

Community outreach has proved to be a powerful weapon against electronic acts of hate. Recently, people who use Twitter have come together to support victims of bullying. Followers of "Anonymous" and @bullyville tweeted supportive messages to a young man who had posted anguished tweets, threatening to take his own life because he was being bullied. The spontaneous flood of positive messages--thousands in all--turned it around for him. As sentiments of hate replaced messages of support, the internet saw one less victim of cyberbullying.

While victims of bullies can seek support on line, for those caring for or working with children and teens, the road is less clear. Anyone in any way responsible for school or teen aged children should educate themselves about the cyberbully’s favorite haunts and tactics. At home parents and guardians should use spyware and monitor the social media use of kids and teens—seeing what goes on and with whom children are chatting is the best defense against electronic forms of harm. At school, teachers, counselors, and administrators should establish no tolerance policies and bully free zones—and should always cooperate with authorities whenever relevant.

If Knowledge is power, being familiar with a bully’s favorite cyberhaunts, strategies and tools can help rob the bully of at least some of his or her power to hurt—it’s not the end, but at least it’s a start.

Scatter Diagram

Use a Scatter Diagram to investigate the possible relationship between two variables that both relate to the same event.

When To Use:

When you have paired numerical data.

When trying to identify potential root causes of problems.

After brainstorming causes and effects using a fishbone diagram. To objectively determine the relationship between a particular cause and effect.

When determining whether two effects that appear to be related both occur because of the same cause.

1. Collect pairs of data where a relationship is suspected.

2. Draw the scatter diagram with the independent variable on the horizontal axis and the dependent variable on the vertical axis. For each pair of data, put a dot or a symbol where the x-axis value intersects the y-axis value. (If two dots fall together, put them side by side, touching, so that you can see both.)

3. As in the below graph, Look at the pattern of points for a obvious relationship. If the data clearly form a line or a curve, you may stop. The variables are correlated. You may wish to use regression or correlation analysis now. Otherwise, complete steps 4 through 7.

4. Divide points on the graph into four quadrants. Let X be the number of points on the graph.

5. Count X/2 points from top to bottom and draw a horizontal line.

6. Count X/2 points from left to right and draw a vertical line.

7. If number of points is odd, draw the line through the middle point.

8. Count the points in each quadrant. Do not count points on a line.

9. Add the diagonally opposite quadrants. Find the smaller sum and the total of points in all quadrants.

10. A = points in upper left + points in lower right

11. B = points in upper right + points in lower left

12. Q = the smaller of A and B

13. N = A + B

14. Look up the limit for N on the below trend test scatter diagram table.

15. If Q is less than the limit, the two variables are related.

16. If Q is greater than or equal to the limit, the pattern occurred from random chance.

If you want to see how regression relates to the scatter diagram, see this page.

Tropical Diaspora: The Jewish Experience in Cuba

Tropical Diaspora: The Jewish Experience in Cuba

Tropical Diaspora: The Jewish Experience in Cuba

Tropical Diaspora: The Jewish Experience in Cuba

"The first study on the Cuban Jewish community to be undertaken during this century... a combination of history and biographies of a unique diaspora as well as a saga of courageous immigrants... useful both for scholars of the Latin American Jewish experience and the general public."--Jacob Kovadloff, former director of Latin American Affairs, American Jewish Committee

"An original and exciting piece of scholarship that explores and analyzes a number of never-before-examined themes in the field of Latin American history, immigration history, and Jewish history... gives readers a sense of both Cuba and the immigrants and refugees who lived there."--Jeff Lesser, Connecticut College

This story is about Cuba and the generations of Jews who immigrated there after 1900. Their experience was bittersweet: Cuba welcomed immigrants long after the United States shut its doors to them in 1924, particularly refugees from Nazism. Yet the story of Cuban Jewry also includes
the tragic 1939 drama of the St. Louis, turned away from Havana and the United States with its cargo of German-Jewish refugees still aboard, a propaganda coup for Germany.
Although many Jews prospered economically on the island, they always remained outsiders, denied access to political influence and to high society. Unlike Jewish communities elsewhere, Jews in Cuba played virtually no cultural or intellectual role. Ironically, those who emigrated to the United States as politically (and economically) desirable refugees after the 1959 Revolution were the same Jews, or the children of the same Jews, who had been deemed undesirable and denied U. S. entry in the 1920s.
Levine interviewed nearly a hundred Cuban Jewish emigrants in the course of writing this book, and his use of their words lends the work an especially engaging, lively quality and makes it a vivid reflection of how the immigrants thought and felt and lived. The pages contain more than seventy-five rare photographs of the island that the immigrants made their home until their exodus after Castro and of the Jewish community from its origins to its near-moribund state today.
Levine also compares the experience of Cuba's Jews with that of other immigrant groups, as well as that of Holocaust survivors in other Caribbean and Central American countries. The book's broad scope thus gives it appeal not only for students of Latin American Jewish issues but for all those interested in the relationship between majority and minority societies in the Americas.

Robert M. Levine is professor of history and director of Latin American studies at the University of Miami, Coral Gables. He has edited several Hispanic American journals and published widely on Latin American subjects. Two of his most recent books are Cuba in the 1850s: Through the Lens of Charles DeForest Fredricks (UPF, 1990) and Images of History: Nineteenth and Early Twentieth Century Latin American Photographs as Documents.

The Holocaust may even be seen as a deliberate lesson or project in philosophical redefinition: "You religious and enlightened people . . . you think you know what a human being is. We will show you what he is, and what you are. Look at our camps and crematoria and see if you can bring your hearts to care about these millions." And it is obvious that the humanistic civilized moral imagination is inadequate. Confronted with such a "metaphysical" demonstration, it despairs and declines from despair into lethargy and sleep.

—Saul Bellow, To Jerusalem and Back

Hitler's Impact in Cuba

Events in Europe, starting with the Nazi accession to power in 1933 and accelerated by the successes of the Spanish fascists under Generalísimo Francisco Franco, abruptly colored the ways Jews in Cuba came to be considered by their island hosts. The new German flag, emblazoned with a black swastika, was displayed in Cuba not only at German offices and businesses but, in a few cases, by sympathizers. Without precedent in Cuban history, a propaganda assault was launched in the news media, spearheaded by Dr. José Ignacio Rivero's three newspapers and by the radio. The attacks focused on stopping Jewish immigration and called Jews fleeing from Europe "human garbage." During the late 1930s, the . . .

The Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) announced a first attempt at changes, including that chief executive officer Steve Nardizzi and chief operating officer Al Giordano have left the organization, in a statement from Thursday. If it ultimately regains public trust, it will be an unprecedented success story, says Greg Hillgren, chairman of the Patriots Initiative, in a phone interview.

"Once they've lost that public confidence and trust it can be game over," says Mr. Hillgren founding member of the San Diego- based watchdog of charities for veterans that removed the WWP from its directory in February. "You're investing for impact, and when that trust is gone it's hard for that organization to recover."

Mr. Hillgren praised the WWP's goal of supporting veterans injured physically or mentally by combat, noting it has impacted the public by its "poignant" commercials alone. He said even that does not make up for problems with both spending and transparency, and he hopes the leadership will begin providing information to donors "out in front instead of having to be repeatedly asked about it and having it dragged out in media reports."

"In terms of getting questions answered, in terms of finding further information, they scored very low," Hillgren says.

Although it has grown from 1,850 participants to 144,000 between 2010 to 2015, reports from various news organizations and other charity watchdogs have revealed areas where the non-profit needs significant improvement, The Christian Science Monitor reported:

Last year, The Daily Beast noted that WWP spent tens of thousands of dollars in court and threatened other charities over their use of similar logos or names. And in a separate report, the Beast criticized WWP's payment of its employees - the group's top 10 salaries totaled around $2.6 million - as well as its selling donor information to outside parties.Now, a new CBS News investigation is calling into question the practices relating to the charity's operational costs and employee spending. …

Bentley Car Insurance

Insuring your Bentley through specialist insurance brokers

If you're in the market for low-cost Bentley car insurance and have found that many mainstream insurance websites have been unable to offer you anything approaching a reasonable Bentley car insurance quote, QuoteRack has partnered with a specialist insurance broker who is familiar with the Bentley marque and with insuring the various Bentley models, including recent models such as Bentley Arnage insurance, Bentley Azure insurance and the Bentley Brooklands car insurance.

Bentley car insurance quotes available through

The history of Bentley Motors is long and has not always been entirely successful; in recent years, however, new Bentley models such as the Bentley Continental GT and the Bentley Mulsanne has lead to the reputation of the marque enjoying a massive revival.

"The Bentley is a beautiful car, few would deny that and it is a pleasure to own and to drive - you don't mind paying for your Bentley insurance so much when the Brooklands coupe looks as good as it does"

With models of all ages capable of exceeding $100,000 in value, obtaining Bentley car insurance requires the skills and knowledge of an insurance professional. You need to know that your car is in safe hands when it comes to making sure your Bentley insurance cover is at least adequate for your needs, in terms of the vehicle's value, the level of service offered and the overall claims experience.

Classic and modern model Bentley insurance is available through QuoteRack, including the Bentley Continental, the Bentley Arnage, the Brooklands and the Bentley Azure.

"Sales of Bentley cars have risen steadily since the takeover by Volkswagen and despite early misgivings about the change of ownership, there can be fewer doubters that the Bentley's reputation is now better than it has probably ever been"

"The Bentley Continental Supersports is a beast - the fastest and most powerful Bentley ever built, offering 620 BHP and 0 - 60mph in 3.7 seconds."

DIY Drink Local Beer Opener - Rachel Teodoro

DIY Drink Local Beer Opener

I don't do a whole lot of crafting for the guys in my life, but trust me, even the men can get behind this Silhouette project. It's easy and can use up some of that scrap wood and scrap vinyl that you may have around the house. Even if you have to buy the beer opener, this project will still not cost you more than a few dollars!

DIY Beer Opener

fathers day, gifts for guys, beer mount

You will need:

beer opener
scrap wood
Silhouette machine

I used a scrap piece of wood from the pile we have in the garage. Please tell me you have a wood pile scrap bin too? Because if not, you will need to *gasp* buy wood. You don't need a big piece. Mine is 3 1/2 x 10".  I used stain to color the wood {can you tell I had some left over from making my table?}.

I found this bear opener at my local craft store {Artco...if you are in Tacoma, WA, it's my favorite and you should go!}. It was only $1.99. I found a similar one on Amazon if you aren't so lucky. I just drilled some holes and sunk some screws to mount the opener. Easy peasy.

Then, I cut out some vinyl on my Silhouette machine {please tell me you have one, because if you don't, you need to buy one like yesterday!} . If you need a tutorial on cutting vinyl, this one may help you.

Pick up a six pack and gift this little drink local beer opener to your favorite beer drinking guy {or gal!}.

fathers day, gifts for guys, beer mount

It's the perfect Father's Day gift

Or it would make a great hostess gift for summer BBQ's.

The World’s 10 most Bizarre Wooden Buildings

Wood is one of the world’s oldest construction materials that are still in use today. Technology and craftsmanship has taken this material to a whole new level of creativity and, today, wooden buildings are still considered to be amongst the most beautiful structures on the planet.

Here’s a look at some bizarre wooden buildings that glorify the natural beauty of this fantastic building material:

a)    The Wooden Skyscraper, Russia: This building, originally the brainchild of a well-known Russian gangster, Nikolai Sutyagin, was meant to be a two-storey home. However, a visit to Japan exposed this notorious criminal to Japanese wooden buildings and he decided to use the roof space more efficiently. First came three floors, but the house was looking ugly, “like a mushroom”. Today, this four-storey building houses the former-mafia boss who’s struggling with life after prison & money – much like his home.

b)    The Upside-Down House, Poland: A 114-day construction job, the upside-down house was built as a symbol of the communist era and how it would lead to the end of the world. The tiny village of Szymbark attracts plenty of tourists because of this building, but tours are quite short as everyone tends to get disoriented by the lay of the land.

c)     Inversion House, USA: A story of one man’s garbage being another’s gold, two condemned buildings got a new lease of life when the Art League, which called these buildings “home”, decided to convert them into temporary exhibits. The front building’s exterior was peeled off, simulating a funnel-like entrance into a vortex. The vortex became a tiny passage, for kids, to crawl through the two buildings and come out onto the other side.

Photo by Bryan Peters

d)    The Mushroom House, USA: Built to mimic the various shapes found on the forest-floor, architect Terry Brown decided to create this piece of art in an upscale neighbourhood, becoming the target of his affluent neighbours’ scorn. Using wood, coloured glass and shells, amongst other things, Terry’s home has become a symbol of his eccentricity.

Photo by The Rocketeer

e)     One Log House, USA: The Americans seem to have a taste for the bizarre, with their third entry to the list. Designed by an individual named Art Schmock, One Log House is carved out of a hollowed out Red Wood tree. The house was never meant to be lived in, and ended up being a road-side attraction before anything else. The house has a 7-foot high ceiling with enough room to hold a kitchen, a bedroom, living space and even a dining room. At 32 ft in length, the log weighs in at 42 tonnes, and comes with wheels!

Photo by Kristie Wells

f)      Pickle Barrel House, USA: Another bizarre entry from the land that lives on the edge, the pickle barrel house is, as the name suggests, house made to look like a barrel. The two barrels are connected by a wooden passageway, with the taller barrel providing two whole floors of wooden magnificence. Clearly, the architect who designed this house had nothing better to do!

Photo by Kristina_5

g)    Korowai Tree Houses, Papua New Guinea: Built on stilts that, sometimes, go as high as 25 or 30 feet, the KorowaiTree Houses are simple structures that are nothing short of an uphill climb. Originally designed to keep scavengers, even monkeys, away from their food stores, these homes were built on really high stilts with removable climbing ladders. The homes are well above the flood-water levels and were also built high up to protect the tribe from other cannibalistic tribes. Each stilt is made of Ironwood, giving them protection from fire as well.

h)    Final Wooden House, Japan: Created by Japanese architect , Sou Fujimoto, the house has been created with lumber to show the use of large beams to create fantastic shapes, nooks and corners. Based on stepped-space, the design is totally out of this world, but you can see it in Japan.

Photo by mab-ken

i)      The Tree House, USA: Built out of a tree, into a tree and through a tree, this Robert Harvey Oshatz production took all of seven years to complete. An astounding living space in the middle of the forest, Robert took inspiration from a random scribble on his notebook. What the overall look means, is open to everyone’s interpretation and so far, everyone’s interpretation has been vastly different!

Photo by twistedsifter

j)      The Woodland Home, Wales: For architect Simon Dale, this would have been one of those dream projects that you just wait all your life for. Reminiscent of the hobbits’ burrows from J.R.R. Tolkien’s magical lands, the Woodland House is all about comfort using natural materials. A warm and cosy structure that is almost beyond every imaginative thought, the Woodland Home probably becomes the dream home for one who lays eyes on it.

If you are looking for magic with a natural tinge, then these wooden homes are definitely worth a visit. A fantastic portrayal of nature’s beauty, combined with human ingenuity, these buildings are the epitome of man’s capabilities and much more!

Matt Pollock is an architectural writer currently staying in Australia learning about the unique style of moveable, pre-fabricated homes that are popular in Queensland.  He is particularly interested in alternative building methods and green design.

Tresha Faye Haefner

Bellano Coffee, San Jose, CA

It is April again and the girls are pulling off sweaters,
walking into tattoo parlors,
piercing a needle into the body,
like shoving a key into a lock.

I sit thinking about the tattoo
I never got. Wonder if work would allow me
to slap one on my wrist.

Through the window the hills flatten at the top.
The buildings look like the erections of poor men
in broken hotel rooms.

The barista calls up my order, with a sleeve
of blue and green turtles inked into her arm.

A man next to me closes his briefcase,
blank, black, smooth as a cloth
soaked in chloroform.

Kafka’s story of a rat who says the world used to be big,
then the walls went up.

This morning the gates of my apartment complex opened,
then closed.

The Food Max across the way has gotten older and dirtier,
the liquor light brighter every night.

I know now what I have never been able to say before.
I will never get a tattoo, or be young again.

Never return to that fresh feeling of milk or water,
the raw sweetness of a carrot
broken between the teeth.

The earth may produce all the violets it wants,
but the heart remains black, the blank skin a reminder
of what I haven’t done.

I sit down to read another book.
Sign my contract for one more year of work.

The island-like freckle on my right hand afloat in a sea of white.
Arm of a mannequin. Ghost of a girl
killed when she was young.

from Rattle #37, Summer 2012

Breast Cancer Linked to Red Meat Consumption

Among women, breast cancer is the leading form of cancer. Billions have been spent on cancer research, yet preventing cancer provides one of the few clear strategies. Breast cancer in particular has now been scientifically linked to the consumption of red meat and processed meats.

The use of an ancestral elimination diet for the treatment of inflammatory arthritis: a case report

arthritis diet.png

This is a case study of a patient who experienced improvement of inflammatory arthritis from a treatment plan that consisted almost exclusively of an ancestral or “paleo” elimination diet. After the initial 30 day elimination period, the patient reported a 51% reduction in total symptoms, and significantly less pain and flexibly in the affected joints. She also reported a welcome 6.5 pound weight loss, improved mood, and improved gastrointestinal symptoms. She was then able to successfully reintroduce a number of foods while furthering her symptomatic improvement.

Case Presentation:

This 45 year old female Caucasian marketing manager (Jane*) requested a nutrition care plan to improve her inflammatory arthritis, as well as to improve her overall health. Approximately 2.5 years prior, she had begun experiencing joint pain in her right knee. At that time, she was under a great deal of stress and was working long hours. At the time of
initial consult, she was experiencing significant pain and swelling in her right knee and both feet. MRIs showed inflammation and swelling without structural damage in the knee, and bursitis without synovitis in both feet. She experienced temporary improvement in her knee with a steroid injection and in her feet with acupuncture. Jane’s rheumatologist suggested the medication Methotrexate as a means of reducing inflammation, but Jane wished to first explore alternative/dietary approaches to reducing inflammation.

Jane had no other medical diagnosis. She reported blood pressure of 130/70 and resting heart rate of 61. She provided the following labs:

  • Rheumatoid factor - negative
  • ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) - normal
  • C-Reactive Protein - normal
  • Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies - negative
  • Anti double stranded DNA - normal
  • Anti-nuclear antibodies – positive but ‘not v high’

Jane had a family history of cancer, hypertension, and glaucoma. She reported a height of 64” and a weight of 137 pounds, with a BMI of 23.52. She reported a 20+ year history of yo-yo dieting, with weight fluctuating between 130 and 170 pounds. Her exercise consisted of walking approximately 90 minutes 7 days per week.

For the previous two years leading up to the consult, Jane had followed a 5:2 intermittent fasting pattern for weight control. This fasting pattern features 5 days of normal eating and 2 days of very low calorie (~500kcal/day) intake per week.  Jane ate 3 meals and 2 snacks each day, with less than 25% eaten out. Comfort foods and cravings included tea, cake, biscuits, chocolate, baked goods (toast/scones/crumpets), red wine, and crisps. One food diary day of eating for Jane was oats with yogurt and fruit for breakfast, sandwich or soup and salad for lunch, meatballs with rice and broccoli for dinner, and chocolate with digestive biscuits, squash, and wine in the evening. She drank 3-6 cups of black tea with milk per day.

Jane was taking the following dietary supplements: EPA/DHA omega-3 fish oil 1800mg – 2 caps/day , vitamin D3 10ug – 2 caps/day, Feroglobin Gentle Iron supplement (17mg iron fumarate) with B6, folic acid, B-12, zinc, and copper – 1 cap/day. She was not on any medications.

Her initial total symptom score was 47, with reported symptoms of joint pain, arthritis, stiffness/limited movement, belching, bloating, flatulence, spoon shaped/brittle nails, dry skin, coating on tongue, mood swings, anxiety, anger, poor memory, and poor concentration.

Management and Outcome:

Jane was given the following nutrition care plan:

  • 30 day ancestral/paleo elimination diet (followed by re-introductions):
    • 100% eliminate: gluten, dairy, soy, legumes, eggs, and tree nuts
    • Limit: refined sugar, refined flour, gluten-free grains, white potatoes, sweeteners/additives/food dyes
    • Do not limit healthy fats. Use olive and avocado oil, coconut oil, goose or duck fat, or diary-free ghee.
    • Track intake with a goal of 25grams+ of daily fiber (mostly from vegetables, fruit, nuts, and seeds)
    • Grass-fed meat, free-range pork, and organic poultry are recommended as ideal.
    • Work to incorporate daily intake of bone broth, collagen gummies, and/or collagen hydrolysate protein
  • 5:2 fasting routine: no changes needed
  • The resources provided were a meal plan, a detailed food/ingredient list, a gluten-free guide, and links for needed items/ingredients.
  • Exercise and stress management/reduction recommendations and resources were also provided.

At 34-day follow-up, Jane had a total symptom score of 23, a 51% reduction.
She reported that her feet “definitely feel better; they are more flexible and less painful when I get up in the morning”. She also noted that “I've been able to return to some strength training, doing bodyweight squats”. She also was happy with a 6.5 pound weight loss. She additionally reported improvement of gastrointestinal symptoms and mood/emotions.

At this follow-up, Jane was provided with food re-introduction instructions, beginning with eggs, dairy, and tree nuts (usually included on an ancestral diet). The next food re-introductions were legumes, white potatoes, gluten-free whole grains, and gluten.

At 48- day follow-up, Jane reported further symptomatic improvement: “my feet feel almost normal when I get up in the morning, very few aches and pains, and I've noticed a reduction in the swelling in my toes”. She also reported a total of 10 pounds weight loss (BMI now 21.8). She had successfully reintroduced eggs and dairy at that point.

Ancestral or ‘paleo’ diets have been shown by clinical trials to reduce inflammation and to improve weight, insulin sensitivity, and dyslipidemia (1-8). They can be used professionally with an elimination diet approach, to achieve outcome goals while also broadening the diet as much as possible. A well-designed ancestral diet is nutrient-dense, with a high amount of vegetables and fruit, a moderate amount of well-sourced animal protein, nutrient-rich fats, nuts and seeds, and additional foods as tolerated by the patient. Food/nutrient trackers can be used to ensure that the patient is meeting dietary requirements during the elimination and, in fact, their nutrient status usually improves on the elimination diet.

This case study provides an example of the professional use of an ancestral elimination diet to improve inflammatory arthritis. The patient was provided with an initial 30-day full elimination period, followed by systematic re-introductions. Resources such as meal plans, recipes, and handouts were used to make the elimination diet easier and more successful.
Foods were reintroduced individually, each over several days at increasing amounts. The patient was able to reintroduce a variety of foods while continuing symptomatic improvement.

As many chronic medical conditions have a component of inflammation, insulin resistance, obesity, and dyslipidaemia, a dietary approach that addresses these issues is an incredibly valuable clinical tool. Ancestral elimination diets have been shown to yield these improvements (1-8). They can be used effectively by nutrition professionals to achieve significant clinical outcomes. When doing so, it is important to provide the patient with helpful resources for both the elimination and reintroduction phase. It is also essential that the patient receive ongoing support and follow-up.

*NOTE: name has been changed for patient anonymity.

Finally, I'd love to hear from you!  Have you used an ancestral or paleo diet either personally or professionally?  If so, what were the results and/or challenges?  Please post either in the comments or send me an email!

Warm regards,
