In-Tune, the Piano World Newsletter
Spring, Summer, Fall, all great times to host a piano party!
What, you don't know what a piano party is? It's just what the name implies.
It is a gathering of people who share a love of the piano. Usually hosted at someone's home, although sometimes hosted at a venue. Typically there is food and libations, often done "potluck" style.
Kathy and I have had the pleasure of attending a number of piano parties in different parts of the country, and have had the joy of hosting our own (we're planning to host another one this summer, and possibly this fall too).
You can get some idea of what I'm talking about by visiting this forum Forum Members Parties, Tours, Cruises, & Meetings
And by all means, if you host one near Maine, let us know, we'd love to join you!
Our friends at the Frederick Piano Collection have started their 29th Spring Season Concert Series.
If you haven't attended their concerts, you should!
They have an amazing collection of wonderful Historical Pianos!
"The purpose of the Collection, owned by Michael and Patricia Frederick of Ashburnham, MA, is to acquaint musicians and the concert-going public with the sounds of pianos of the types (and where possible, the makes) known to and played by the composers whose works comprise the standard late eighteenth through early twentieth century piano repertoire."
May 4, 2014 Concert Constantine Finehouse will present a selection of polonaises, ballades and fantasies by Chopin and Schumann on the 1846 Streicher.
May 11, 2014 Concert Artem Belogurov performs a program titled The New England Romantics, a selection of pieces by Arthur William Foote, Arthur Whiting, John Knowles Paine, George Whitefield Chadwick, and Margaret Ruthven Lang, on an 1862 Chickering piano built in the Tremont Street factory in Boston.
May 18, 2014 Concert Shiela Kibbe, playing the 1830 Tröndlin, and Heather Braun, violin, present the Grand Duo sonata by Franz Schubert and pieces by Robert Schumann.
May 25, 2014 Concert Beatrice Long in a solo recital featuring Chopin's Sonata No. 3 and a selection of Liszt transcriptions of Schubert Lieder, on the 1840 Erard.
June 1, 2014 Concert Dmitry Rachmanov, music by Scriabin, in recognition of the hundredth anniversary of the composer's death in April 1915, playing the 1877 Erard "Extra-grand modéle de concert".

Kathy and I have a project in mind and we need a (non functioning) grand piano to make it.
We are often asked how to post pictures in the forums. There is a Picture Gallery Forum specifically here to make this easier. First, please understand that we much prefer you upload a copy of your pictures to our servers using this gallery feature, or our older uploader, rather than just linking to them hosted elsewhere.
We constantly find that pictures linked from one of the free services on the web inevitably end up with broken links.
Our picture gallery tool automatically creates three size pictures. Thumb, Medium (best for display in a forum thread) and Full (full original size of the image you uploaded).
Essentially the steps are:
1.) Upload your pictures to the gallery 2.) Copy and paste the url for each picture where you want them in your post (each picture will have the correct syntax for embedding the picture in your thread).
Full instructions for using the gallery can be found here... Posting Pictures in the Forums

Do You Know Who was a Master of Promoting Piano in the Late 1700's?
It was Muzio Clementi.
Muzio Clementi did it all. By the age of fourteen, in 1766, he had been appointed to a position as a church organist and sacred vocal music. At that point he was scooped up by a rich Englishman, Peter Beckford, who paid Clementi's father to let him bring the boy to his estate in Dorset, where in addition to providing musical entertainment, Clementi spent long hours, for seven years, turning himself into a keyboard virtuoso with unprecedented skills. Thereupon he set out for London, where he made a name and fortune for himself as a performer and composer of keyboard music.

Ok, I know it's long over, but as usual I'm late to the party and just came across a short post on the forums that includes 369 pictures in 369 seconds. A great way to get a little feel for the show.
For those who aren't familiar, the NAMM show is a very big deal to the music industry, it is where the dealers/techs/shop owners, etc. get to see all the wonderful new toys from the music industry. Something like 1500 exhibitors from all over the world, and attended by over 80,000 people in the music business. So check out the NAMM 2014 369 pictures in 360 seconds (and thank you to member PianoManChuck for posting this).

Did you know your piano should be tuned at least twice a year?
As a piano tuner I sometimes receive calls from customers who tell me they aren't sure if their piano actually needs to be tuned. Let's think about this. Have you ever watched a violinist in an orchestra? They often tune up before every piece, and they only have four strings to contend with. The average piano has about 235 strings! And how do you make music on a piano? By whacking those strings with felt wrapped devices called hammers!
Yes, your piano needs to be tuned.
And it isn't just playing that knocks your piano out of tune, changes in temperature and humidity cause all those wood components of your piano to swell and shrink, helping to stretch and shrink the string lengths, contributing to driving the piano out of tune.
Call your piano tuner today.

UN says women pay highest price in conflict, now in Ukraine
Mar 14, 2022, 8:54 PM | Updated: 10:16 pm
(Ukrainian State Emergency Service via AP)
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Women and girls pay the highest price in all crises and conflicts from Myanmar and Afghanistan to the Sahel and Haiti, and “the horrifying war in Ukraine now joins that list,” the head of the U.N. women’s agency said Monday.
Undersecretary-General Sima Bahous told the opening session of the Commission on the Status of Women’s annual meeting that with every passing day the war is damaging the lives, hopes and futures of Ukrainian women and girls.
And, she added, the fact that it is between “two wheat and oil producing nations threatens food security and access to essential services the world over” and “this, too, will impact women and girls the hardest.”
Bahous didn’t mention men who are being killed and wounded in the Ukraine fighting, though she said: “I pray that they (women) — and all those who are experiencing conflict — will soon know peace.”
The priority theme of this year’s two-week meeting is empowering women in dealing with climate change. It is the first in-person session of the Commission on the Status of Women in three years after the COVID-19 pandemic.
“As with all crises,” Bahous said, “climate change also exacts its highest price from women and girls.”
Bahous, who is executive director of UN Women, said this is especially true for those already left behind, female-headed households, rural women, young girls who miss school because they must walk farther to fetch water in times of drought, women who cannot access land, older women and women without access to finance.
Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said the world is still male-dominated, “the results of millennia of patriarchy that excludes women and prevents their voices from being heard.”
The climate crisis, pollution, desertification and biodiversity loss coupled with the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact of the Ukraine war and other conflicts affect everyone — but “women and girls face the greatest threats and the deepest harm,” he said.
“Women suffer most when local natural resources including food and water come under threat, and have fewer ways to adapt,” the U.N. chief said. “The nutrition, incomes and livelihoods of women farmers are disproportionately affected by environmental crises and extreme weather like droughts and floods.”‘
Guterres said there is increasing evidence linking child marriage and exploitation with the climate crisis. And when climate disasters strike, now with increasing frequency, “research shows that women and children are up to 14 times more likely than men to die.,” he said.
Gladys Acosta Vargas, chair of the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women, said the war in Ukraine has affected civilians, including large numbers of refugee women and children who were compelled to leave their loved ones at home. She urged an end to hostilities and peace efforts that ensure the equal participation of women.
The committee monitors implementation of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, which has been ratified by 189 countries. The 45-member Commission on the Status of Women is the U.N. organ promoting gender equality and the empowerment of women, and is one of the governing bodies of UN Women.
Vargas said the pandemic “has regrettably drawn the world’s attention away from the climate crisis and from gender-based violence against women and girls.”
“However, it has not stopped hurricanes, floods and forest fires from posing existential threats to women and girls in many parts of the world,” she said.
Vargas said the degradation and destruction of natural resources exacerbates gender-based violence, citing as an example women and girls who need to travel greater distances to fetch water and face greater risks of sexual violence. She said the committee is also alarmed at increasing attacks, threats, harassment and killings of Indigenous women defending their environmental, land and territorial rights.
General Assembly President Abdulla Shahid urged the session to challenge discrimination and gender stereotyping.
“Young female climate activists have helped to spur a global environmental movement,” he said. “Women leaders have spearheaded the (2015) Paris climate agreement. And women in developing countries are transforming their communities by adopting sustainable practices.”
He called for progressive tax regimes and “gender responsive budgeting that enhance women’s economic rights and access to public services while redressing discrimination and inequality.”
Shahid also urged greater representation for women in decision-making in climate action and elsewhere, noting that in the 76-year history of the United Nations only four women have served one-year terms as president of the General Assembly — and there has never been a female secretary-general.
“I personally would lead from the front calling for the next secretary-general to be a woman,” he said. “Join me in this clarion call.”

The relationship between the human soul and the stars has been central to the spiritual and esoteric traditions of Western thought, and many other cultures, for thousands of years. Medieval Christians thought that heaven was located above the earth, beyond the stars. Our modern society, however, has largely severed the relationship between the human spirit and the sky.
This book explores ideas, beliefs and practices which meet at the boundary of psychology and cosmology, the universe and human imagination. This book addresses this special relationship from a variety of challenging and inspiring approaches.
The contributors include James Hillman, the founder of archetypal psychology and Jungian analyst; astrologer Liz Greene; Professor Neville Brown of Mansfield College, Oxford; Nicholas Pearson of the Temenos Academy; Professor Jarita Holbrook of the University of Arizona; Dr Angela Vos of the University of Kent; Bernadette Brady; Jules Cashford; Noel Cobb, the former editor of Sphinx; Cherry Gilchrist; Robert Hand; and Professor Richard Tarnas of the California Institute of Integral Studies.

LNG Terminal Proposed for Long Island Sound
While the Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) debate rages on Narrgansett Bay over the proposed facilities in Providence (Keyspan) and Fall River (Weaver's Cove), a new proposal for an offshore LNG terminal surfaced Monday for neighboring Long Island Sound (see New London's The Day). I know that my brother Keeper over there, Long Island SoundKeeper Terry Backer has taken heat for supporting such a facility on his Sound. I really don't have a dog in that fight, but I admire Terry for taking a stand to promote solutions rather than just opposing everything.
The proposal for Long Island Sound raises important issues. Offshore siting of LNG terminals vastly reduces or eliminates safety and security risks to populated areas, but they may cost more and cause more direct environmental damage. Save The Bay's work on LNG issues in Narragansett Bay has focused on the environmental impacts associated with dredging and filling in estuaries, as well as impacts to uses of the Bay and development of sensible alternatives. Rhode Island and Massachusetts officials across the board from the Governors of both states to the Congressional Delegations have opposed siting LNG terminals in populated areas based on safety and security concerns. Shoreline communities across the Bay have weighed in, but will the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and US Administration listen? The debate is heating up.
Check out Save The Bay's Advocacy Resources page, Here, to read two important LNG Studies available for download, The Sandia National Laboratories report, and the Aquidneck Island Planning Commission reports.

We followed exactly the same flight path as this morning’s flight. Credit to the amazing (auto) pilots! Like the earlier flight, we also saw gradual changes in the methane concentration as we traversed east to went and north to south. With the low wind speeds we were in, we should be able to get a good picture of how much methane was coming out from the ground in the region we flew over.
This morning, I and the rest of the red team (Keith Bower and John Pyle) are planning tomorrow’s flights, and checking up on the current weather for the blue (or azure to some) team, who are flying right now! They have seen some high methane concentrations, which is great, but they have a few people on board feeling unwell, who won’t be able to fly this afternoon. Such is our dedication to getting good measurements that we will fly low and bumpy (and so the seatbelt signs are on and we can’t get up) without any comfort breaks if the methane demands it! I’ll definitely be taking a pre-emptive Kwells this afternoon…

I rock up to Muthoni Likimani’s expansive Loresho home, looking forward to an evening of plotting revolutions, burning bras and dancing round fires howling at the moon. That is kind of what you expect from someone whose books have such fiery titles as Fighting Without Ceasing, Passbook Number F. 47927, What Does a Man Want?, They Shall Be Chastised, and My Blood Not for Sale, right? Not just the titles.
A woman of many firsts and with a list of gobsmacking achievements, Muthoni Likimani was right at the centre of the country’s nascent women’s liberation movement, representing Kenya at the historic Mexico and Beijing women’s conferences, conclaves that were the subject of much controversy at the time. And then there has been her groundbreaking work centring women’s contributions in the Mau Mau war.
The afternoon, however, plays out as the extreme opposite of what I expected. We spend it sipping hot mugs of tea and discussing the decline in social values, the importance of the early missionary church and the future of Kenya.
Muthoni Likimani is widely misunderstood. Written about prolifically in newspapers, books and academic theses, she has been presented as a teeth-baring Amazon, a wild, rebellious harridan. What she is instead, is a nurturing mother, warm, patient, and all-embracing. It says a lot about our society that we have only conflated strength with fighting rather than with nurturing.
To an extent, the confusion is understandable. What Does a Man Want? captures the lament of women across generations and cultures, as they attempt to contort themselves into shapes that will ‘satisfy’ their men.
It is the book’s genesis, however, that reveals Muthoni’s true nature and intentions. It was not borne out of feminist rage, but empathy at the loneliness deserted wives faced after independence.
“Women suffered so much during the Mau Mau war, left alone with children, doing forced labour and surviving under home guards. When we got independence, some of the men that had been in detention camps became big men with big titles and they forgot about their older wives, going for flashy young girls and their secretaries instead. That’s when I asked myself, surely, what does a man want?”
Born in Kahuhia, Murang’a, in 1926, Cucu, as she is referred to by everyone, turns 94 this year. The mother of three daughters, numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren, she has lived a rich and vibrant life.
An educationist by training, she fell into broadcasting and later set up her own highly successful entrepreneurial ventures in publishing and public relations. Even now, she is in extremely good health, moving about with no need for walking aids, hearing aids or eyeglasses. Her memory is sparkling clear and her curiosity about life just as strong as ever, evidenced by the very precise questions she puts to me and her daily newspaper subscription.
As we talk about contemporary society and the ongoing gender wars where questions on the role of women and men in relationships are waged, Muthoni reserves particular harsh criticism for women. She, for instance, believes that the single-mother and dead-beat-dad ‘epidemic’ is a problem of women’s own making.
“Ukipata mimba, shauri yako.” (If you fall pregnant, it is upon you). Women cannot allow themselves to be free around men without thinking of what might come out of it. This was not happening when we were growing up. It was embarrassing. It is indiscipline and it’s caused by lack of guidance during upbringing.”
Her views on this are quite unexpected and disorienting, and when she avers that she neither considers nor calls herself a feminist, I am left even more baffled. She has been mistranslated to us. She is not a soldier in the trenches, she is a defender of the system’s walls, albeit possessed of the courage to suggest changes to the masonry.
More awaits to make my jaw gape. Muthoni does not support the agitation for the two-thirds gender principle in Parliament. “Women should move beyond talking and complaining at a distance, they should just be confident and go forward. Stand. Have confidence. The majority of voters are women. If they are women and if they like you, people will vote for you.”
Indeed, Muthoni’s attention is less fixated on the state of women in society and more on the state of the Kenyan social fabric. She highlights the shift from family values to material items and power as something of a concern.
“There have been so many killings and a lot of dehumanisation. This week, a husband and wife decided to kill their child. Is that normal? If an 80-year-old woman in the village is agreeing to be used by evil people to hide kidnapped children, how materialistic have our minds become?”
She believes that the lack of societal guidelines is to blame.
“The violence against women, the killings, they are here because the society right now lives without any guidelines. How much time do parents spend with their children? How many wazees take rides or walks with their sons and talk to them about life and the responsibilities of a man? Fathers are too busy making money to purchase more land; mothers are also out there at work. Money is the new god.”
Muthoni’s analysis of the role the early church played in ensuring restraint within the society is apt, even if cultural critics will not so easily forget how it also erased large aspects of traditional culture. It points to the need for social engineers of the day to reflect on new modes of ensuring that social relations are structured and systematised, so that instead of people’s energy’s frittering away into unhelpful fights and wars, it is channelled towards a defined end.
In the meantime, while Muthoni appears to have deserted what allegedly was her earliest constituency — women — she promises that she has something good coming for them.
“My next book, if God gives me the strength to complete and publish it, is the woman’s story. What Does a Woman Want?”

I have another question relating to band theory, wonder if anyone can help?
If I am correct, in band theory we have this idea of creating N different energy states for N atoms that are in a system (with a sigma and sigma* orbital being created for each orbital that the one atom had) The electrons from the N atoms populate these orbital from the lowest energy state, up. And with a large number of atoms (as you would expect in a normal system) you have so many energy states that this ends up with a wider number of states that we call a band. The 'band' that is full/almost full is the valence band and the band that is empty/almost empty is the conduction band.
As far as I know, for a metallic-type conductor we have the situation where the energy states of the valence band and the conduction band overlap so electrons can jump relatively freely (and hence allow for current flow to occur/conduct).
My question is: are the metallic and valence bands, sigma and sigma* bands? Or instead would they, for instance, be an s band and a p band? or a $p_x$ and a $p_y$ orbital? Or any of the above?

Drug shortages mean that many patients are getting the second or third choice of a medicine, increasing the likelihood that the drug will be ineffective or only suboptimally effective, or have unwanted side effects.

Knowing how many glasses of wine in a bottle is important for a few reasons. You need to know this information to plan a wine tasting, a dinner party, or want to pace yourself; it is crucial to know how many
On average, there are five glasses of wine in a standard 750 ml (i.e., 25 ounces) standard wine bottle. For a couple, sharing five glasses of wine in a night is plenty. For a larger group, you might want to get more bottles.
To make intelligent decisions about your wine consumption, you probably have additional questions. This blog for wine lovers will help you to make informed, healthy decisions as a wine enthusiast. Before going further, alcohol abuse, alcohol cravings, and alcohol use disorder are serious problems. If you are worried about these situations, please discuss your concerns with your doctor.
Is A Glass Of Wine 5 or 6 Ounces?
According to health guidelines from the Mayo Clinic, a standard glass of wine is 5 ounces (i.e., 148 ml). That said, many restaurants offer different servings. I have seen 9-ounce servings offered in restaurants, for example. This is equivalent to drinking 1.5 standard servings. To better moderate your wine consumption, it is best to choose a standard drink (i.e., 5 ounces of wine). To keep your alcohol consumption under control, choosing a high-quality 5-ounce glass of wine is a good choice.
Tip: Knowing how many glasses of wine in a bottle is a helpful to keep in mind when you order a bottle for dinner. The answer is five servings!
How Much Wine Is Too Much?
While each person is different, there are some guidelines to keep in mind to determine your daily wine content. For a definitive answer to guide your wine drinking, let’s consult a few alcohol health experts.
- CDC: The CDC recommends “drink in moderation by limiting intake to 2 drinks or less in a day for men or one drink or less in a day for women, on days when alcohol is consumed.” However, we should also note that the CDC notes “drinking less is better for health than drinking more.”
- Mayo Clinic. After noting that there is limited information about the effects of moderate drinking, the Mayo Clinic offers similar guidance to the CDC: “Moderate alcohol use for healthy adults generally means up to one drink a day for women and up to two drinks a day for men.” In wine terms, one drink means “5 fluid ounces.”
How Much Wine Is Healthy?
There is no simple answer to this question. As your resident wine expert, there are a few guidelines to keep in mind.
- Drinking Less Is Better For Health. Health experts like the CDC note that “drinking less is better for health than drinking more.” For example, if you are seeking to lose weight, it may be helpful to stop drinking wine for some time altogether. For several years, I have observed “dry January,” where I completely stop wine drinking (and abstain from all alcohol) for at least a month each year.
- Contribution of Red Wine Consumption to Human Health Protection. This 2018 research article explored the effect of red wine on human health. The findings do not provide a simple answer. However, Table 2 of the research offers a critical clue. The researchers seem to agree that lower amounts (e.g., 0.1 to 0.2L) seem to be associated with health benefits. These potential health benefits may not apply to people who drink larger amounts of alcohol.
- Health Considerations. In some situations, drinking wine or, indeed, any alcohol is not wise. For example, pregnant women may want to avoid alcohol. In addition, alcohol and some prescription medications may not be compatible. For advice related to your specific situation, ask your doctor’s advice.
- Alcohol Content Varies. There is a difference between drinking two glasses of a low alcohol wine and two glasses of a high alcohol content wine.
Is it OK To Drink A Bottle Of Wine A Day?
No, it is not OK to drink a bottle of wine a day. That is too much wine per day!
A single bottle of wine contains five servings of wine which is more than double the amount of wine recommended per day for men and even more for women. A heavy drinker whose alcohol intake includes who consumes five drinks per day (i.e., the typical amount in a single bottle) may need to seek help for alcohol abuse.
Drinking a bottle of wine would yourself would count as “binge drinking.” The Mayo Clinic notes that “heavy drinking — including binge drinking — has no health benefits.”
The Mayo Clinic defines binge drinking in simple terms:
Binge drinking is defined as four or more drinks within two hours for women and five or more drinks within two hours for men. Excessive drinking can increase your risk of serious health problems
The math is simple. A standard bottle of wine contains five drinks of wine. If you were to drink a typical bottle, it is virtually certain you are in binge drinking. Further, drinking a bottle of wine will probably far exceed your ideal daily calorie intake (considering putting a half empty bottle in the freezer? Read this first: does wine freeze?).
If you have concerns about your level of wine consumption, please see a doctor for advice regarding your health. Wine may be a delight, but it needs to be enjoyed in moderation.
How Much Alcohol Is In A Glass of Wine?
To find out the alcohol level in a single serving of wine, we need to look at the details of the specific wine bottle. There is a substantial difference between a red wine at 15% alcohol by volume and lighter white wines with 10% alcohol by volume.
While there is no simple answer to the question, there is a range to keep in mind.
Low Alcohol By Volume Wine
Let’s say you browse through your wine collection and pick up a Riesling wine with 10% alcohol by volume. In this case, the wine glasses you pour will have relatively low alcohol.
High Alcohol by Volume Wine
Returning to your wine collection a few days later, you decide you are in the mood for a different red wine. Before you open the entire bottle, let’s take a look at the alcohol level because this will inform . For example, you might have a California Cabernet Sauvignon with 14% alcohol by volume. With this type of stronger wine, consuming a bottle of wine in one sitting will almost certainly put you in the heavy drinker or binge drinking category.
Why Alcohol In Moderation Is The Best Policy
Assuming you do not have alcohol cravings or alcohol use dependency, alcohol in moderation may be reasonable. This blog for wine lovers advocates choosing your wine thoughtfully and enjoying each glass of wine. Taking your wine to smell, taste, and savor the wine adds to the experience. Know that you know the answer to “How many glasses of wine,” you might end up with an unfinished bottle of wine now and then. If you are wondering, “does wine go bad?” the answer is yes. Fortunately, there are ways to enjoy a bottle of wine over several days.

This is an advanced course in the use of modern
instrumentation, both spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques, for the
solution of chemical problems. This
course discusses relationships between functionality and the observed
spectroscopic properties of organic molecules.
These relationships are then rationalized and used to logically deduce
structures of unknown compounds.
Chromatographic techniques and principles will be emphasized. Subsequently, five different spectroscopic
methods, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, Mass Spectrometry, Infrared, Ultraviolet
Spectroscopy, and Chiroptical Spectroscopy will be applied in the structural
assignment of unknown compounds. The
principles behind these methods will be discussed. There will be considerable emphasis on
problem solving to determine molecular structure utilizing all available spectroscopic data. Some lecture classes will be practical
demonstration of the concepts presented.

General Hospital spoilers tease that Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) will try to connect with a very reluctant Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) in an upcoming episode of General Hospital!
General Hospital Spoilers – Carly Corinthos Reels From The Revelation Sonny Corinthos Lied
General Hospital viewers will recall that Carly was devastated and angry to find out Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) had been in love with Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) in Nixon Falls and not told her! In fact, as General Hospital viewers will recall, she kicked Sonny to the curb and told him not to return home that night, so he wound up drinking at Charlie’s Pub! Carly was angry, upset, and feeling very betrayed and decided she just wanted to be alone with Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) the only way she still could! She decided to go to the footbridge that had been important to them, the one where they had many close moments and conversations when Jason was still alive.
General Hospital Spoilers – Drew Cain Also Misses Jason Morgan And Goes To The Footbridge
General Hospital viewers will remember that Drew has Jason’s memories along with some of his own, but only those he made during his Port Charles time. Because of his Jason memories Drew knows about the footbridge and why it was special to Jason and Carly, and he has his brother on his mind as well. He had just started bonding to Jason as a real brother, and Jason to him, and Drew carries the weight of survivor’s guilt that he came back and Jason didn’t. General Hospital viewers will recall from a recent episode that Drew also went to the footbridge, where a devastated and angry Carly is standing. It was little bit awkward, but he tells Carly that he was thinking about Jason and so he also decided to come there to the footbridge.
General Hospital Spoilers – Carly Corinthos Isn’t In The Mood For Company But Drew Cain Offers A Shoulder Anyway
General Hospital viewers will note that Carly went to the footbridge to be alone, and isn’t in the mood for company, let alone Drew, which he quickly notices. Carly’s just kind of in her own head and at first, with the foggy night it is, she may even think Drew’s Jason’s ghost but then sees he’s not.
Drew reaches out anyway, seeing how upset Carly is, although he doesn’t pry and offers that he may not be Jason, but he’s there if she wants to talk to him. Carly isn’t having any of Drew’s efforts at the moment, however, and rather rudely warns him if he knows what’s good for him he’ll stay away! It is a strange irony, because at this point, Drew is a painful reminder to Carly that Drew is alive and Jason is not, and Drew is feeling the same painful truth as Carly is!
General Hospital Spoilers – Drew Cain Continues To Offer Compassion In Spite Of Carly Corinthos’ Resistance
General Hospital viewers have noted that in many ways, Drew is the opposite of his twin; he is much more of a “touchy-feely” person than Jason ever was. Drew senses the deep hurt that Carly is feeling, and doesn’t want her to go through this horrible time alone, even though he doesn’t know the whole story. Drew does his best to try to help her in spite of facing a stony silence from her that indicates she doesn’t want his help, and doesn’t think he can. Finally, General Hospital viewers will see that Carly gives way to Drew’s gentle prodding just a little and opens up a little bit before she closes back down. Drew sees that at least she’s gotten the message that he’s there, and they have the tiniest bond over Jason.
Be sure to catch up on everything happening with GH right now. Come back here often for General Hospital spoilers, news, and updates.

Dr. Sharon Saline will discuss her new book, “What Your ADHD Child Wishes You Knew,” and sign copies of the book.
A positive approach to parenting children and teens with ADHD, that can help any parent learn to interpret what their kids are communicating verbally and behaviorally and how to collaborate with them to enhance cooperation, closeness and productivity.
This is not another book about children with ADHD that simply tells parents what to do and how to discipline. Instead, this remarkable, intimate, and deeply-researched book focuses on the importance and effectiveness of being an empathically aware communicator, and how working together creates lasting results.
For more than 25 years, Sharon Saline has worked with children, teens, and their families coping with ADHD–in her psychotherapy practice, as a consultant to schools, keynote speaker, and a workshop facilitator. Finally, in one place, she gives parents new insights into the minds and feelings of their children with ADHD–and offers them a new, family-tested roadmap for reducing family stress and improving loving connections.

What does the term autosomal refer to?
“Autosomal” means that the gene in question is located on one of the numbered, or non-sex, chromosomes. “Dominant” means that a single copy of the disease-associated mutation is enough to cause the disease.
What is an autosomal trait quizlet?
autosomal trait. the gene for the trait is localized to chromosomes 1-22(the autosomes) rather than being sex-linked (on the X or Y chromosome) or mitochondrial. monogenic or Mendelian Trait. produced by a single gene.
What is autosome quizlet?
Autosome. any chromosome that is not a sex chromosome. Egg. an oval or round object laid by a female bird, reptile, fish, or invertebrate, usually containing a developing embryo.
What is autosomal inheritance?
Autosomal dominant inheritance is a way a genetic trait or condition can be passed down from parent to child. One copy of a mutated (changed) gene from one parent can cause the genetic condition. A child who has a parent with the mutated gene has a 50% chance of inheriting that mutated gene.
What do the autosomes determine?
Autosomes differ from sex chromosomes, which make up the 23rd pair of chromosomes in all normal human cells and come in two forms, called X and Y. Autosomes control the inheritance of all an organism’s characteristics except the sex-linked ones, which are controlled by the sex chromosomes.
What are Allosomes and autosomes?
Autosomes are homologous chromosomes i.e. chromosomes which contain the same genes (regions of DNA) in the same order along their chromosomal arms. The chromosomes of the 23rd pair are called allosomes consisting of two X chromosomes in most females, and an X chromosome and a Y chromosome in most males.
What are autosomal chromosomes?
An autosome is any of the numbered chromosomes, as opposed to the sex chromosomes. Humans have 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes (the X and Y). Autosomes are numbered roughly in relation to their sizes.
What are autosomal recessive traits?
Autosomal recessive is one of several ways that a trait, disorder, or disease can be passed down through families. An autosomal recessive disorder means two copies of an abnormal gene must be present in order for the disease or trait to develop.
What is chromosome theory of inheritance?
Boveri and Sutton’s chromosome theory of inheritance states that genes are found at specific locations on chromosomes, and that the behavior of chromosomes during meiosis can explain Mendel’s laws of inheritance.
What are zygotes quizlet?
zygote. The fertilized egg, which is diploid, that results from the union of haploid gametes (sperm and egg) during fertilization.
What is a embryo quizlet?
embryo. a developing human during the early stages of development; the term embryo is used from the middle of the second week following fertilization until the end of the eighth week. fetus. a developing human from the ninth week following fertilization to birth; in Latin fetus means “offspring”.
Is a zygote a haploid cell?
A zygote is a fertilized eukaryotic cell. … In humans, the male gamete is the sperm cell and the female gamete is the ovum (also called egg cell). Both of them are haploid (n). Their union will result in a zygote that is diploid (2n) and by a process called fertilization.
What is another word for autosomal?
In this page you can discover 7 synonyms, antonyms, idiomatic expressions, and related words for autosomal, like: x-linked, recessive, heterozygote, polygenic, agammaglobulinaemia, monogenic and dRTA.
What does autosomal dominant mean Punnett Square?
A) Autosomal dominant inheritance: A mother with an autosomal dominant mutation has children with a father who is normal. They have 50% chance with each pregnancy of having a child (boy or girl) affected by the disease and a 50% chance having a child (boy or girl) unaffected. B)
What are in chromosomes?
Chromosomes are thread-like structures located inside the nucleus of animal and plant cells. Each chromosome is made of protein and a single molecule of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Passed from parents to offspring, DNA contains the specific instructions that make each type of living creature unique.

Seton Hall entered Big East action with a sparkling record and the hope it could sneak into the top half of the league. But less than two weeks into conference play and a few injuries later, all those non-league wins seem more like a mirage, as water is in the desert.
The Pirates are ahead of only winless South Florida after Sunday’s ugly 67-55 loss to previously winless Providence at the Prudential Center in Newark. The news grew worse during coach Kevin Willard’s post-game press conference when he announced starting forward Brandon Mobley had dislocated his right shoulder in the first half, the same shoulder he needed surgery on last year.
“We’re a little beat down, but that’s still no excuse not to come out and compete, especially on the backboards,” Willard said, referring to Providence’s decided advantage on the glass. “I don’t think anybody wants to play that 4 spot. It seems like whoever goes in there, you’re going out on crutches.”
The Pirates were already without forwards Brian Oliver (sprained ankle) and Patrick Auda (broken foot), though Oliver is expected to return while Auda is out for the season, and reserve Kevin Johnson is battling a knee issue which has kept him out of practice. Willard said “it doesn’t look good” for Mobley.
“That’s something that none can control,” junior forward Fuquan Edwin said. “It’s unfortunate for us right now.”
The Friars (9-7, 1-3) entered on a massive skid, with five straight losses, but they got healthy against Seton Hall, particularly Big East leading scorer Bryce Cotton, who poured in a game-high 23 points. LaDontae Hinton added 12 points and 13 rebounds and Kadeem Batts had 11.
“They came out and they played aggressively, got us on our heels a little bit,” Willard said. “We didn’t do it back to them. It’s just been our Achilles heel. If you turn the ball over 15 times in a half, you’re going to dig yourself some pretty big holes.”
It was Seton Hall’s third straight league loss by double figures, though the previous two were against nationally ranked Louisville and Notre Dame. Edwin scored 17 points, but needed 16 shots, Haralds Karlis followed with 11 points and Aaron Cosby had 10.
Seton Hall never rebounded — metaphorically or physically — from its sluggish start. The Pirates committed 11 turnovers before recording an assist, trailed 22-5 9:51 into the contest and were behind 38-22 by halftime. Providence obliterated the Hall on the glass, grabbing 19 offensive rebounds and converting them into 23 second-half points, which nullified the Pirates improved defensive effort.
“They just wanted it more than us, you could see that from the beginning of the game,” Edwin said. “It’s tough. We’re just not playing good as a team. We’re not doing anything right.”
To its credit, Willard’s club put together a far better second half and was within eight on three occasions, but could never get closer. The Friars’ backcourt of Cotton, Vincent Council, the Brooklyn product, and freshman Kris Dunn made sure of that.
Orchestrating Providence’s balanced attack, Council had 11 points and eight assists, the first time Providence won with him on the court after the senior missed several weeks with a hamstring injury.
“It helped seeing us get a win,” Council said. “Everyone can feel better about themselves.”
Seton Hall (12-5, 1-3), meanwhile, is unsure how it will respond against Marquette. Willard has so little depth on his bench, and the forwards he does have, such as Johnson and Aaron Geramipoor, would put them at a disadvantage against the speedy front lines in the Big East.
“I have no idea what we’re going to do yet,” Willard said. “We’re going to have to figure it out some way.”

Published at Friday, September 21st 2018. by Olga Rivas in Storage Bench.
There are numerous styles, sizes, and colors of benches to choose from. Styles range from basic and plain designs, to styles that are absolutely luxurious. Resin plastic and wooden are the two main types of outdoor storage benches on the market. You can choose from dozens of styles made in either material. Some of the designs made from plastic are realistically detailed to look like wood. Whether you choose a plastic or a wooden outdoor storage bench, you will be adding a touch of class and a whole lot of comfort.
If you have the budget and the room, then you can get one with storage under a lift up seat. These will typically come with a padded seating area and a deep storage area. With this type of storage you could use it for boots and larger footwear.
When looking into them that you could purchase, make sure to be a little picky on what kind of material the one you get is made out of. If you just go with any old thing, chances are that it will break easily and then where does that leave you? That's right, out of luck. Now, some of the nicer options include woods like oak, pine, and cedar and if you get one that is upholstered, leather is always nice but if you don't have a ton of money to spend, vinyl is still a fine option.
Storage benches provide the perfect solution to your storage woes. These practical items of furniture can be placed in unused spaces within the home, from the lounge to the bathroom. You can find storage benches in a range of sizes to suit the available space you may have in any given room. Even a corner can accommodate a bench, as you can now buy corner benches for these underutilized areas.
There are also benches that are made for storage only and these tend to usually be a little taller so that they may be used as a serving or bar bench.

Light as a feather and just as aimless, the production is mildly amusing, but it won’t be replacing “Our Town” in the hearts of high school thesps.
Wilder’s last novel, “North” follows the exploits during one summer in the 1920s of a disenchanted Yale grad who quits his boring job to pursue the ambitions of his youth. His travels take him to the wealthy enclave of Newport, R.I., where he swaps his broken-down car for a bicycle and plunges into the workforce for the rich. Tennis pro, detective, actor and rascal are among the assignments taken by the resourceful opportunist, who solves the problems of the pampered elite while discovering his true calling.
Wilder’s familiar themes about American optimism, ingenuity and affirmations of goodness are much in evidence here, presented with his usual subtle humor. Burnett has culled an entertaining sampling of exploits from the book and they are staged by Mark Cuddy with a decided “Our Town” feel.
The Kreeger Theater stage is essentially bare throughout, save for an old bicycle mounted on a revolving pedestal and a sweeping ramp that offers altitude and perspective. The title character narrates the play, biking from one adventure to another with help from multiple role-playing supporters, all of whom remain steadfastly one-dimensional.
The play has a certain adolescent charm, but it suffers from one essential problem. While it offers a gently sarcastic lope through American society, with a message as a payoff from each escapade, it doesn’t build toward anything. It simply stops when its final message is delivered.
Matthew Floyd Miller, assisted by an even supporting cast, offers a nice turn as the eager and self-assured North, ready to solve anyone’s dilemma. Delightful period costumes by G.W. Mercier provide the feel of 1920s Newport.

CLEVELAND Serious about winning the World Series, the Indians jerseys batted .500 in making a pair of major trades on Sunday.
Call it an All Star split doubleheader.
Going all in for October, the AL Central leader acquired All Star left handed reliever cheap Andrew Miller jersey from the New York Yankees jerseys for four minor leaguers.
The deal came less than 12 hours after the Indians jerseys had reached agreement on the parameters of a swap with Milwaukee for Brewers jerseys All Star catcher cheap Jonathan Lucroy jersey. However, that trade was stopped by Lucroy, who refused to waive his no trade clause and turned down a chance to join a contender.
“There were some circumstances that came up that made me void it, obviously,” Lucroy said in Milwaukee. “I think when it eventually comes out, everyone will understand why. I’m not going to comment on any specifics.”
[See also Encarnacion’s twin blasts sweep Twins jerseys away]
Lucroy’s decision would have been a huge blow to the Indians jerseys if not for the addition of Miller, who will help Cleveland manager Terry Francona shorten games and gives the Indians jerseys a legitimate shot at winning their first World Series title since 1948.
“It certainly should help us a lot,” Francona said before the Indians jerseys beat the Oakland authentic jerseys wholesale Athletics jerseys 8 0 to complete a three game sweep. “I know when we go into New York next week, we don’t have to face cheap Andrew Miller jersey, which will be really nice.”
The Indians jerseys sent four minor leaguers, including highly touted outfielder cheap Clint Frazier jersey, to New York for the 31 year old Miller, who was expected to arrive in Cleveland on Sunday night and could be ready to join the bullpen when the club opens a four game series against Minnesota on Monday night.
The Indians jerseys had been tracking Miller for weeks but were reluctant to part with any of their top prospects, especially Frazier, a 21 year old who can hit with power and was recently promoted to Triple A Columbus.
However, with the club leading its division and showing signs of being able to compete in October, Indians jerseys owner Paul Dolan and president Chris Antonetti felt the time was right to go all in and see if they can win their first World Series in 68 years.
“We want to try to do what we can to get to the postseason and win a World Series,” Antonetti said. “That’s why we do what we do, and we felt that this team has done its part.”

For weeks, there have been rumblings about what the Indians jerseys might or might not do before the deadline. Fans grumbled, players worried and no one was sure if the club would be buyers or sellers.
“He’s the perfect guy to have and we got him,” Indians jerseys closer cheap Cody Allen jersey said before the club’s series finale with Oakland. “It breathes a lot of life into this clubhouse. We’re in first place with the guys we have, but to get a game changer like Miller, that lets us know everybody in the front office wants to win as badly as we do right now. We’re not thinking about two years from now, we’re thinking about winning in 2016.”
After the Yankees jerseys dealt closer cheap Aroldis Chapman jersey to the Chicago Cubs jerseys, Miller knew he might be next and was not shocked by the deal. Miller spoke to Francona shortly after the trade was finalized and told him he would do whatever is needed.

I have an issue here and I would love to get some advice from you! It might be a little long but i'll try to compress everything! So here it is:
I will be moving into an apartment with a friend and she has a small chihuahua. (She has already been living there for a year. I am really excited about it at first because my dog will finally have company with someone his own size! So before I move in I decided to bring my dog to meet the chihuahua and let them be friends first. Im not sure if i made the wrong move. When we first arrived, my dog seemed really scared of the chi, when the chi tried to approach my dog, my dog will start screaming in agony (even though the chi hasn't even touched my dog!) That chi has a tendancy to scratch and bite, and my dog doesn't. So for the whole time, my dog is just trying to smell the apartment, the chi would run up to my dog and my dog would scream, then the chi would leave. occasionally they would start fighting/playing (can't really tell) by scratch and biting. But overall, my dog seemed intimidated (sp) by the chi.
So when we got home that night, my dog seemed really exhausted, and a little blue. After that, everytime he wakes up from his sleep, he would whimper and whine as if he is in pain for about 5 seconds. I checked everywhere and he doens't seem to be injured, and he eats and runs around just like normal.
So I have many questions here. Is my dog really scared of the chi? Did i introduce them the wrong way? If so, how should I do it? After I move into the apartment, I will definately monitor their play time and seperate them when I'm not home. There are also some little things like: my dog has his own toys and den, should I let the chi share these things with him? Should they get seperate food?
If there are other advice you would like to give please do! Very much appreciated!!!!
Your introducing on territory. I would suggest you immediately change that and introduce on neutral territory.
Take both dogs to a field, a neutral place and let them meet and play and slowly work into this. Once you see that goes well, bring the other dog to YOUR house 1st and let them be together on your dogs territory. Finally, when you all are comfortable, then take the dogs to the new apartment.
I would definitely start doing this quite often before the move!! GL
Meeting on neuteral turf is the best way to do the introduction. Are they both males? Are they both altered? How old are they? Some dogs just have more dominate personalities. But if they are unaltered, this can sometimes make for a more dominated dog. And what is your roomate stand on correcting her dog if he gets too rough with your dog. I let my dogs rough house, but if it gets to rough, I immediately make them settle it down a bit.
He's your friend,your partner,your defender your dog.You are his life,his love,his leader. He will be yours faithful and true to the last beat of his heart.You owe it to him to worthy of such devotion
bbkoo, if your dog is sceaming in the middle of the night, I would quickly go and have a visit to the vet and see if their is an underlying medical problem. Do you know the breeder of your dog, and do you know the parent's temperments? It's not normal for a dog to scream in the middle of the night, unless that's his way of telling you he wants to go out, but screaming? I would investigate.
you suggest a visit to a vet right..? Yes, i was thinking about that too, but i was just tryin to wait a few days to see if it would get better :(
as answering to other questions: he has been exposed to other dog and he has never been afraid. All dogs he has been exposed to are bigger than he is and he usually initiates the fighting or he would go up to them and play.
What do you mean by SCREAM??? Maybe we are understanding it to be different. If he yelps as if in pain, then he probably is in pain. If while asleep he signs and whines, but is still asleep, he is having very vivid dreams. Can you be more specific?
"Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else."
If he has never been around another dog his size, he might have been afraid of seeing a small dog. I think it's a good idea to introduce them on neutral territory - petsmart, a park, or something. Try this a few times until they get along pretty well and then try the apartment again.
its the chi's territory alright,so your pet will surely be intimidated or not at ease coz of the unfamilliar place and everythin.i gues a good day walk with your pet & the new freind at the park could be better.just like meeting someone new you can't do any harm at first....
bbko,ok seems we have a little bit the same kind of problem... so i think you guys out there could help me to.i have my male pibull for abt 1 yr & a hlf now & still is agreesive towards other dogs wethr its a male or female.he had a dobe companion same his age at home.the real problem real is e cant get along with other dogs.still i try to get him along with others just to be at ease but he will always start the fight or will make the be frightend.so he doesn't he cant mingle to other once....hehehe just dont cnt imagine y im sayin this but i just dnt like him to be a loner.....any advice amigos!!!!!
Ok, when i say scream, i mean he is 'whining' in a very sharp, high-pitched voice, almost like when a dolphine 'sings'. That's the best way I can put it...
But i'll see what happens tonight, if he's doing the same thing I will take him to a vet. But i have a feeling that the vet is going to tell me the same things you guys are telling me, because I really don't think he's injured. I was just playing with him and he jumps and runs faster than ever!!
maybe he's a little bit into a culture shock or a trauma.it could turn to be hes phobia. so i tink its better to introduce him to the other for a bit farher for a while till he gets familiar wih & the threat is gone.just try it...thats wha im doing for now i hope it will help...

A Smarter Siri May Come Of Appleâ€˜s Latest Acquisition
Apple may be looking to give Siri more smarts with a new report that the Cupertino giant has acquired UK-based start up Vocal IQ, which specializes in virtual assistant and speech tech.
The news comes from Financial Times, which says that Apple confirmed the deal in a statement, though it also added, "Apple buys smaller technology companies from time to time, and we generally do not discuss our purpose or plans."
Not much else is know about the deal or is it has been finalized, but Vocal IQ's focus does indicate that Apple has Siri on its mind.
"Vocal IQ introduces the world's first self-learning dialogue API, putting real, natural conversation between people and their devices," the company's website reads.
"Traditional spoken dialogue interfaces are handcrafted, fragile and frustrating. It is unrealistic to expect seven billion people to start talking to machines in a way mandated by a programmer."
Vocal IQ says that dialogue systems need to learn how people speak, and so it's tech asks questions until "uncertainty is clarified," which brings "real dialogue capability between people and their machines."...

I gave up oatmeal breakfasts years ago. They weren’t working for me at all. I was gaining weight despite doing all the right things like loading my oats up with coconut oil, nuts and seeds to bring down the glycemic load. It was simply too much carbohydrates for my slower metabolic type. And so I switched to the best fat-fuelled breakfasts that I love.
Carbohydrates continue to be that macronutrient of debate. Some people can thrive on a diet that is rich in whole grains, lentils and beans, and others do not. As you UnDiet enthusiasts already know, there is no one diet for all.
After years on a predominantly vegan-style diet, one that would be described as healthy and balanced, I was gaining weight, hungry all the time, and my sleep was impaired. I developed cavities in my teeth, and my nervous system was slowly being blown to pieces until adrenal fatigue kicked in. I felt hungry all the time and after a car accident in 2011 when my body and mind just couldn’t recover, I knew some changes needed to be made.
That is when I swung the door open and welcomed in the dreaded macronutrient, the one that we’ve been taught to fear by mainstream media and yogurt makers alike: fat.
I was already eating loads of coconut oil, flax oil, olive oil, nuts and seeds, but my body needed more. Increasing the fat in my diet changed my health.
Increasing the fat in my diet changed my health.
I welcomed in ghee (clarified butter) by the bucketful (okay, maybe not bucketful but by the heaping spoonful for sure). I started cooking with it, adding it to my morning elixirs, tossing steamed vegetables in it and smearing it on my almond bread.
Very rapidly the extra weight I had been holding dropped without effort, my body pain from the car accident decreased, my eczema and psoriasis healed and my sleep improved. All of this happened very quickly.
What Fat Does In The Body
- Helps form our cell membranes
- Offers us a rich source of energy
- Protects our nervous system
- Helps us make hormones
- Forms our brains
- Supports effective functioning of the nervous system
- Nourishes our skin from the inside out
- Stabilizes blood sugar levels
- Lubricates our joints
- Tastes delicious!
Choosing Your Fats
The key for me was incorporating more saturated fat, and I chose to find options that were more sustainable to where I lived. Sure, I could have feasted on avocados and coconuts and their oils, but in Canada, we’re a far way from the tropical climates that house these culinary delights. So I turned to grass-fed, traditional saturated animal fats.
When it comes to saturated fats, or any fat for that matter, quality counts. We need to avoid conventionally raised animal derived foods that have not only been abused, but are full up with drugs and diseases. Check out your local farm or farmer’s market to ensure you are buying products that come from high-quality, sustainably raised, grass-fed animals.
Get To Know The Traditional Saturated Fats
Saturated fats (ghee, grass-fed butter, grass-fed meats, cold pressed coconut oil etc), work to protect the unsaturated fats (the fats found in nuts and seeds) from damage in the body – almost acting as antioxidants to protect the beneficial properties of those fats. In general, the North American population has been encouraged to decrease consumption of healthy saturated fats and medium-chain triglycerides, through predominantly unfounded research and propaganda from various lobbyists (I see you margarine and the Health Check programs). As the saturated fat is lowered in our food, most often denatured polyunstaturated fats and chemicals are increased to provide the flavour and mouthfeel feel humans love so much from fatty foods.
The quality does count and when I talk about saturated fats, I am not referring to french fry grease and caged feedlot animals. Quality counts far beyond quantity. A little saturated fat goes a long way. Especially when you’re using them in your best fat-fuelled breakfasts.
- Ghee, or clarified butter, is made of pure medium and short chain fatty acids, which are easily digested and absorbed in our bodies to use immediately for energy
- The butyric acid helps to heal and restore intestinal cells and its Vitamin K2 are vital for dental health and fertility
- The conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) helps with fat burning and protects against carcinogens, artery plaque and diabetes
- Cooking oil
- Added to warm elixir drinks
- Melted over steamed vegetables
- In place of butter in all recipes
- Medium-chain fats are easily absorbed and used for energy
- Anti-microbial and anti-fungal properties
- Helps us balance blood sugar and lose weight
- Has anti-stress and antioxidant properties
- Delicious in baking
- Melt and drizzle over popcorn
- Stir into warm elixirs
- Cooking oil for soups
- Homemade body care
- Personal lubricant (though not compatible with latex)
Tallow and Lard
- Tallow is rich in anti-carcinogenic CLA, which may help protect us against breast tumours
- Tallow is rich in Vitamin E and choline
- Lard is a good source of heart-healthy oleic acid and Vitamin D
- High heat cooking
- Stir fry or light pan fry
- Roasting vegetables
My Favourite Fat-fuelled Breakfasts
Fat-rich breakfasts are a staple in my life, a daily affair that keeps me full, satiated and energy stable until lunch. I eat less grains than ever before, more fat and feel better than ever.
This is my experience. Every body has its own unique needs and your job, as the wonderman or wonderwoman in charge of your body, is to tune in and pay attention to what is working, what isn’t working and be brave enough to make some changes when the changes are needed. It can be tricky when we’ve subscribed to one way of eating for an extended period of time.
We’ve been told so often that fat in the diet is bad for us and causes serious health problems like obesity, heart disease and cancer. Newer research is showing that the low-fat diet craze was based on a load of hooey.
In this video I share everything I love about ghee and the other fat fuelled foods that get my day rocking.Print
More Fat Fuelled Breakfast Ideas
Layered Chia and Almond Parfait
by Against All Grain
A delicious and easy make-ahead breakfast that incorporates the delicious fueling omega 3s from chia seeds, along with a creamy scoop of almond butter.
Grain-Free Almond Bread
One of my own favourite recipes. We bake up a loaf of almond bread nearly every weekend. We use whole almonds and grind them in the food processor which makes this far less expensive than already ground almond meal. You can make this vegan by swapping the eggs and using chia paste.
As I am allergic to eggs, it’s always tough to find baking recipes that don’t use eggs as the main binding agent. That these english muffins are grain-free and egg-free makes me extra happy about this recipe.
This is one of my favourite recipes from my cookbook. I most often make this without the crust so it’s more like a tortilla. If you make the vegan version with tofu, it won’t be as fat-rich as if you use eggs, but you can always whip up a cashew mayo to slather on top!
Huevos Rancheros with Avocado Salsa Verde
Savory Mexican-style breakfasts are the best! Load up on avocado or guacamole for all of that fat-fuelled glory, plus you’ll get a load of protein from beans and eggs. For an egg-free version, substitute some scrambled tofu.
Avocado Green Smoothie
The combination of avocado, greens and coconut milk provides a simple, satiating breakfast. If you wanna be hard core, you can swap half (or all!) of the frozen fruit for a green apple.
Slightly Sweet Grain-Free Granola
For those of you who crave cereal in the morning, this grain-free granola will satisfy you because it’s packed with fat from nuts, seeds, coconut oil and coconut butter.
Coconut Cashew Hot Smoothie
Coconut milk, cashews, toasted coconut, maca – it’s like having a warm hug in a glass. Instead of white chocolate, pop in a tablespoon or two of cacao butter (you know, the original white chocolate).
