Fire Flowerz - Offensive Language EP - 2011 (Cheaper Thrills)
Fire Flowerz have just released their second EP 'Offensive Language' with UK House label Cheaper Thrills. Fire Flowerz are an Italian duo that make everything from Fidget House to Dubstep to French inspired Disco House. Their sound is what i like to call 'Big Room Disco'. It's Disco House for sure, but it's very heavy and full of energy, much like Nightriders, J Paul Getto etc. Check out the EP below.
Florence-born London-based dance producer Daniele Pianigiani AKA Seya (formerly 5eya), is a new name to the scene. Friends with The Young Punx and Phonat, he is now setting his own path. Seya's 'Float EP' released last year on Sharooz 'La Bombe' label, is a funky modern disco-house hidden gem. Cut up samples, phat heavy drums and synths that pop out left, right and centre. This is a recipe for success. Here's the b-side 'Backlight'.
It's 2012, a new year and a new start. It's been a good few years for the 'French Touch' sound. Every year new producers are emerging and it has now got to a point where a scene is forming.
In '08 we had 'Mr Oizo - Lambs Anger', 'Voodoo Chilli - Titans EP', and of course 'Louis La Roche - The Peach EP'. In '09 we saw the return of Armand Van Helden with new best buddy A-Trak to form the mighty Duck Sauce. Their debut track 'aNYway' hitting the mainstream charts and radio. From then on, 2010 and 2011 exploded with new music from Phonat, Nightriders, His Majesty Andre, Madeon, Fred Falke, J Paul Getto, Vanguard plus many more...
French Touch Version 3.0. We bought it back. This time it's more electro inspired, a strong disco feel, the old House sound updated for the 21st Century. So, What will 2012 bring?
So to kick-start this blog again. Here's a brand new remix from Shook. It's funky as fuck.
Yes, i know what your thinking. 'Where the hell have you been?!?'
Well things have been very busy for me as i'm writing my album, so this website had to be put on hold for a while until things got quieter for me. Thanks to everyone who bought 'Super Soaker' in January!
The good news is, i'm back and i have the first lbbfh album post!
This could well be the rarest release i've posted on here. As far as i know, its basicly impossible to get hold of! Blackjack was one of many labels created and owned by Fab G. Released in 1999 this was the first various artists album to be sold by the label. It's a great collection of some of the finest names in the french touch scene at the time. Superfunk, Fafa Monteco and Sebastien Leger all made it onto the record aswell as some amazing rare and previously unheard tracks!
1 - Prelude To Blackjack 2 - Superfunk - La Guerre Du Funk 3 - Kiko - Last Days Of Disco 4 - Discokidz - Starlite 5 - Deaf 'N Dumb Crew - Chicayork 6 - Twin Pitch - Let's Get Together 7 - Da Bitchy Boys - Le Zeeep (Remix Seb. Leger) 8 - Fafa Monteco - To The Rhythm 9 - Cricco Castelli - From Russia With Phunk 10 - Sebastien Leger - Saturation 11 - DJ Nekbath - No One
Gant Garrard - 100% Chicago Style - 2001 - Riviera
Ahh yes, Riviera great label! Home to Stacy Kidd, Sebastien Leger and Paul Johnson, own by the legendry Fab G (Blackjack, Grand Prix). Gant Garrard might not be a name you've heard of but with tracks on Blackjack, Dust Traxx and of course Riviera, why not?
Arguabley more Chicago House than French House, this release is funky as fuck! Looped but interesting is the best way to describe this. It's all about the groove and feeling of the song with clevely placed filters and kicks that come in and out of the mix.
I'll post another vinyl release of his perhaps in the new year.
You can now listen to a new mix i did for Prim Sessions.
The show is two hours long and my set starts in the second hour.
Heres the tracklisting:
Intro Swivel Hips - Cheaters Cricco Castelli - From Russia With Phunk Stacy Kidd - Motherfucker (Dub Mix) Duck Sauce - You're Nasty Del Marquis - Runaround (Louis La Roche 'In 1995' Remix) Claude Vonstroke - Beat That Bird (Louis' Chime Edit) Sonny Fodera - Money DJ Falcon - Untitled (Hijack Remix) Louis La Roche - Super Soaker Louis La Roche Presents YALL - One Boy Crisis - Fountain Of Youth (Louis La Roche 'In The Discoteque' Remix) Alex Gopher With Demon Presents Wuz - Use Me Louis La Roche - Malfunction Patrick Alavi - Come 2 Me The Requesters - Pianobytes BEAR - International Love
"Let's Bring Back French House" is a blog dedicated to keep your ears happy by feeding them ear-food in the shape of French Touch House music! New and old tracks will be posted, as well as rareites you've not heard!

Australia faces up to race violence - again
Share this article:
It began with race hate posters being plastered around Perth, and escalated into a campaign of beating up Asian migrants and firebombing Chinese restaurants in the city.
That was the late 1980s, and the violence fizzled out when Jack van Tongeren, leader of the far-right Australian Nationalist Movement (ANM), was jailed in 1990.
Now Van Tongeren is free the racist attacks have resumed and Perth's ethnic minorities are living in fear once again.
In the past fortnight, synagogues and shops have been daubed with swastikas and racist slogans.
On Friday the state attorney general Jim McGinty left a meeting in Adelaide and flew home to protect his family after being informed of threats against him.
Van Tongeren has disowned the racist graffiti. But in a video sent to local media, he warned that public figures who supported "Asianisation and multiracialism and the destruction of our ... Aussie way of life" would be "found guilty of treason and dealt with accordingly".
The video named McGinty as one of the "guilty" men, together with the state premier, Geoff Gallop, the police commissioner, Karl O'Callaghan, the Australian prime minister, John Howard, and Dennis Richardson, head of the ASIO intelligence agency.
On Thursday police issued a
state-wide alert for Van Tongeren after using a battering ram to break down the door of his house in Gingin, north of Perth.
He has gone into hiding.
Van Tongeren served 12 years in jail after being convicted of 53 offences including arson, assault and conspiracy to drive Asians out of Western Australia.
Since being released in 2002, he has mainly kept a low profile, claiming to have given up urban terrorism.
The white supremacist ANM terrorised Perth's Asian community for three years in the 1980s, conducting its own version of "ethnic cleansing". A number of racially-motivated killings took place. Australia's Asian neighbours were alarmed.
Among the Chinese restaurants recently vandalised was Foo Win, which was one of three firebombed in February.
Aline Foo, the owner, said it was very upsetting to be targeted twice.
"Life goes on, we still have to carry on," she said. "My livelihood is here."
Five people have been charged with criminal damage and racial vilification in relation to the graffiti attacks. Three were previously linked with the ANM.
Van Tongeren described the attacks as "explosions of anger" about migrants.
"When they come into our country in an invasion size... they must realise they're not wanted," he said.
The threat against McGinty is believed to be part of a plot that goes beyond the vague menaces of the video.
A similar threat was made against the president of the Ethnic Communities Council of Western Australia, Suresh Rajan.
The West Australian newspaper reported that the plot to harm public figures had been hatched by the ANM's "so-called paramilitary arm". It said police feared that members bore weapons.
Howard, the prime minister, dismissed Van Tongeren's threats in a radio interview.
But he added: "I'm also somebody, as you know, that's a very strong supporter of what you might call the traditional symbols of Australia. I don't want to see the Australian identity and the Australian character as we understand it to disappear."
The acting state premier, Eric Ripper, said: "We had this more than a decade ago in Western Australia. It was stamped out, and we want it stamped out again." - Independent Foreign Service

Indian Jewelry Gifts for Women
I love these matching pinkie rings and wear one on each pinkie. They have stood the test of time as I have had them on now for eighteen months and they still look brand new.
I love these for their style and versatility. Amethyst is my birthstone and I realized that I had no earrings featuring this stone so when I saw these they immediately caught my eye. I also love the moonstone for its dreamy quality. The artist does beautiful work and I am sure that I will purchase more of this artist's work.
I love these toe rings. Always have a hard time finding some that I can wear due to sensitivities, but have had no problems with these. Have had lots of compliments.

Improved properties of bone and cartilage tissue from 3D inkjet-bioprinted human mesenchymal stem cells by simultaneous deposition and photocrosslinking in PEG-GelMA
- 2.7k Downloads
Bioprinting of bone and cartilage suffers from low mechanical properties. Here we have developed a unique inkjet bioprinting approach of creating mechanically strong bone and cartilage tissue constructs using poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate, gelatin methacrylate, and human MSCs.
The printed hMSCs were evenly distributed in the polymerized PEG-GelMA scaffold during layer-by-layer assembly. The procedure showed a good biocompatibility with >80% of the cells surviving the printing process and the resulting constructs provided strong mechanical support to the embedded cells. The printed mesenchymal stem cells showed an excellent osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation capacity. Both osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation as determined by specific gene and protein expression analysis (RUNX2, SP7, DLX5, ALPL, Col1A1, IBSP, BGLAP, SPP1, Col10A1, MMP13, SOX9, Col2A1, ACAN) was improved by PEG-GelMA in comparison to PEG alone. These observations were consistent with the histological evaluation.
Inkjet bioprinted-hMSCs in simultaneously photocrosslinked PEG-GelMA hydrogel scaffolds demonstrated an improvement of mechanical properties and osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation, suggesting its promising potential for usage in bone and cartilage tissue engineering.

Discovering water in your dishwasher when it’s not in use can be a frustrating and concerning issue. This unexpected occurrence raises questions about the source of the water and the potential risks it poses to your appliance and kitchen. In this guide, we will explore the common causes of water accumulation in a dishwasher when it’s not in use and provide specific solutions to address each issue. By understanding the underlying reasons and following the recommended steps, you can prevent water from accumulating and ensure the proper functioning of your dishwasher.
Why does my dishwasher get water when not in use?
Normal Residual Water
It’s essential to understand that a small amount of residual water in the bottom of the dishwasher is normal. The dishwasher’s design incorporates a sump or drain area where a small quantity of water is intentionally retained to prevent the rubber seals from drying out and becoming brittle.
If you notice a small amount of water in the bottom of your dishwasher after a cycle, there is typically no cause for concern. Simply wipe away the residual water with a towel or sponge, and the dishwasher will be ready for its next use.
2.1. Clogged Drain Hose
If your dishwasher’s drain hose is clogged or obstructed, water may back up and accumulate in the dishwasher when not in use.
Inspect the drain hose for any kinks, bends, or blockages. Straighten out any kinks or bends, and remove any debris or obstructions. Ensure that the drain hose is properly connected to the dishwasher and that it has a slight downward slope to facilitate proper drainage.
Faulty Check Valve
A check valve is a component that prevents water from flowing back into the dishwasher after it has been drained. If the check valve is faulty or defective, water may leak back into the dishwasher when it’s not in use.
Locate the check valve, usually located near the drain pump or drain hose. Inspect it for any signs of damage or malfunction. If the check valve appears to be faulty, consult your dishwasher’s user manual for instructions on replacing the valve or contact a professional technician for assistance.
Improper Installation of the Drain Hose
4.1. Incorrect Height
If the dishwasher’s drain hose is installed too high or too low, it can impede proper drainage and cause water to accumulate in the dishwasher when not in use.
Refer to your dishwasher’s user manual for specific installation guidelines regarding the height and positioning of the drain hose. Ensure that the drain hose is properly installed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. The correct height and positioning will allow for efficient drainage and prevent water from pooling in the dishwasher.
Malfunctioning Float Switch
A float switch is a mechanism inside the dishwasher that detects the water level. If the float switch becomes stuck or malfunctions, it may not accurately detect the water level and can lead to water accumulation.
Locate the float switch, typically located at the bottom of the dishwasher tub or near the front. Gently lift and lower the float to ensure it moves freely and is not obstructed. If the float switch appears to be damaged or non-functional, it may require replacement. Consult your dishwasher’s user manual or contact a professional technician for assistance.
Faulty Water Inlet Valve
The water inlet valve controls the flow of water into the dishwasher. If the valve is faulty or does not close properly, it may continue to allow water to enter the dishwasher even when it’s not in use.
Inspect the water inlet valve for any signs of damage or malfunction. Consult your dishwasher’s user manual for specific instructions on accessing and replacing the water inlet valve or seek professional assistance.
High Water Pressure
Excessively high water pressure can lead to water accumulating in the dishwasher when not in use. The high pressure can cause the water inlet valve to remain partially open, allowing water to continuously enter the dishwasher.
Check your home’s water pressure using a pressure gauge. If the pressure exceeds the recommended range (typically between 20-120 psi), you may need to install a pressure regulator on your water supply line. This will help regulate the water pressure and prevent excessive pressure from causing water accumulation in the dishwasher.
8.1. Backflow from Sink or Garbage Disposal
Improperly installed plumbing connections or a malfunctioning sink or garbage disposal can cause water to flow back into the dishwasher.
Ensure that the dishwasher’s drain hose is connected to a dedicated drain line and not directly to the sink or garbage disposal. Verify that the plumbing connections are secure and that there are no leaks or blockages. If you suspect a plumbing issue, consult a professional plumber to inspect and rectify the problem.
Regular Maintenance and Prevention
9.1. Routine Cleaning
Perform regular cleaning and maintenance tasks to keep your dishwasher in optimal condition. Clean the filter, spray arms, and interior surfaces regularly according to the manufacturer’s recommendations to prevent blockages and ensure proper drainage.
9.2. Scrape Food Residue
Prevent food particles from entering the dishwasher by thoroughly scraping dishes and utensils before loading them. This helps prevent debris from clogging the drain and causing water accumulation.
9.3. Check Seals and Gaskets
Inspect the dishwasher’s seals and gaskets periodically for any signs of wear or damage. Replace any damaged seals or gaskets to ensure a tight and secure closure, preventing water from leaking into the dishwasher when it’s not in use.
Water accumulation in a dishwasher when it’s not in use can be attributed to various factors, including drainage issues, faulty components, improper installation, and plumbing problems. By understanding the underlying causes and implementing the recommended solutions, you can address these issues and prevent water from accumulating in your dishwasher. Regular maintenance, proper installation, and routine checks of key components will help ensure the optimal performance and longevity of your dishwasher. If you encounter persistent issues or are unsure about the source of the problem, consult your dishwasher’s user manual, contact the manufacturer’s customer support, or seek professional assistance from a qualified technician or plumber.

Biodegradable electrospun poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) scaffolds were coated with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to improve cell adhesion and proliferation. PRP was obtained from human buffy coat, and tested on human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) to confirm cell proliferation and cytocompatibility. Then, PRP was adsorbed on the PCL scaffolds via lyophilization, which resulted in uniform sponge-like coating of 2.85 (s.d. 0.14) mg/mg. The scaffolds were evaluated regarding mechanical properties (Young’s modulus, tensile stress and tensile strain), sustained release of total protein and growth factors (PDGF-BB, TGF-β1 and VEGF), and hemocompatibility. MSC seeded on the PRP-PCL nanofibers showed an increased adhesion and proliferation compared to pristine PCL fibers. Moreover, the adsorbed PRP enabled angiogenesis features observed as neovascularization in a chicken chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) model. Overall, these results suggest that PRP-PCL scaffolds hold promise for tissue regeneration applications.

The location on Avenue A will be the company’s ninth store in Manhattan
This would be the grocery store’s ninth Manhattan location (including its wine store on 14th Street), and will be just a couple of avenues east of the Union Square store.
As EV Grieve noted, citing City Realty and other sources, the store will be located on the lower levels of EVE East Village, a new luxury development under construction on East 13th Street, between Avenue A and First Avenue.
Back in May 2017, The Real Deal reported that the grocery store chain had signed a lease with Mack Real Estate and Benenson Capital Partners for a 8,531-square-foot space on the development’s ground floor and 14,170-square-foot space on its lower level.
And it wasn’t so long ago that another Manhattan Trader Joe’s opened its doors nearby, with the 30,000-square-foot store at Lower East Side’s Essex Crossing.
EVE East Village developers and Trader Joe’s couldn’t be reached for comment.

text: Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is normally one particular mechanism of possessed resistance to inhibitors of the skin growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinases (EGFR-TKIs) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). micro-RNA-200c, which can regulate ZEB1 adversely, was decreased in HCC4006EUr cells significantly. Our outcomes recommend that elevated can get EMT-related obtained level of resistance to EGFR-TKIs in NSCLC. Tries should end up being produced to explore concentrating on to resensitize TKI-resistant tumors. Launch Despite the advantage of skin development aspect receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) in non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) sufferers with mutation , obtained level of resistance to these therapies is normally a vital scientific issue. Although the Testosterone levels790M supplementary mutation  and gene amplification  may jointly accounts for 70% of this level of resistance, systems for the staying 30% are unsure. The epithelial-mesenchymal changeover (EMT) provides been adversely linked with EGFR-TKI awareness in NSCLC [4C7]. In series with these total outcomes, latest research reported EMT as a feasible system of obtained EGFR-TKI level of resistance in NSCLC cell series versions [8,9]. Furthermore, EMT was noticed in a subset of NSCLC sufferers who created EGFR-TKI level of resistance [10,11]. Nevertheless, comprehensive systems of EMT-related obtained level of resistance to EGFR-TKIs in NSCLC, as well as the strategies for conquering it, stay unsure [8,9]. Many signaling paths, such as FGFR [6,12], TGF- [8,9], and WNT , as well as transcription elements, such as the Zinc ring finger E-box-binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1) , possess been suggested as a factor in the EMT procedure. The EMT allows epithelial cells to gain a mesenchymal phenotype linked with elevated migration (for testimonials [15C20]). It is an necessary system for plasticity during tissues and advancement fix. It is normally included in injury recovery, fibrosis, and control cell contributes and biology to the development of diseases-like organ fibrosis and cancers. EMT IPI-493 is normally turned on in cancers cells and included in breach, metastasis, stem-like properties, and level of resistance to typical antineoplastic therapies [15,21,22]. EMT is normally activated by TGF, various other development elements, and hypoxia and consists of transcription elements like Snail, Perspective, ZEB1/ZEB2, and Y12/Y47 to adjust the transcriptional equipment, amendment of proteins and translation balance, reflection of non-coding RNAs, and choice splicing [16,23,24]. Traditional features of EMT are loss of cell-cell cytoskeletal Rabbit Polyclonal to PIGY and adhesion reprogramming. Low E-cadherin and high vimentin and N-cadherin movement are traditional EMT indicators. On the E-cadherin marketer, the histone demethylase LSD1 contacts with Snail, the transcription aspect included in early techniques of EMT induction, recommending epigenetic adjustments during EMT [25,26]. Certainly, L3T27 acetylation was reduced in ZEB1-activated EMT in lung cancers cells . Lately, molecular features linked with EMT had been described by an integrative strategy in lung adenocarcinoma and directed to an association between cytoskeletal and actin-binding protein, the EMT phenotype and intrusive properties . Remarkably, EMT is normally reversible and transient, and story scientific therapeutics concentrating on EMT are under advancement . We set up HCC4006EUr (erlotinib-resistant) cells as a model of EMT-related obtained level of resistance to EGFR-TKIs by chronic publicity of delicate HCC4006 NSCLC cells filled with an mutation (exon 19; M747-A750dun insP) to raising concentrations of erlotinib. We analyzed global adjustments in gene reflection to recognize elements and paths that might contribute to EMT-related obtained EGFR-TKI level of resistance in NSCLC. In addition, the reflection level of micro-RNA-200c (miR-200c) was analyzed structured on reviews that miR-200c adversely adjusts ZEB1 and the EMT procedure [30C32].

As a golfer, you know that one of the most important pieces of equipment you need is a reliable and practical golf bag. But with so many options on the market, it can be challenging to find one that fits your unique needs and personal style. That's where the Ping Hoofer Lite Stand Bag comes in, offering golfers the perfect blend of practicality and style. In this blog post, we'll take a closer look at what golfers should look for in a light and practical golf bag, and why the Ping Hoofer Lite Stand Bag is a great choice for any golfer.
Consider the Weight
When it comes to golf bags, there are a few key things to consider. First and foremost, you want a bag that is lightweight and easy to carry. A lighter bag can help reduce fatigue during the course of a round, allowing golfers to focus more on their game and less on carrying a heavy load. This can be especially true for golfers who prefer to play alone (without a caddy), as well as walk the course rather than ride in a cart. A heavy bag can put strain on the back, shoulders, and legs, which can negatively impact a golfer's performance.
The Ping Hoofer Lite Stand Bag ticks all these boxes and more. Weighing in at just 4.8 pounds, it's one of the lightest stand bags on the market, making it easy to carry around the course all day. The bag's adjustable shoulder straps are well-padded and comfortable, and the innovative strap connector allows for easy adjustments to fit golfers of all sizes.
Another practical reason to choose a lightweight bag is that it can make travel much easier. Many golfers enjoy playing on courses outside of their hometown, and traveling with a heavy bag can be a hassle. Lightweight bags are much easier to transport, whether it's on a plane, in the trunk of a car, or even just carrying it from the car to the course.
Finally, many lightweight bags, including the Ping Hoofer Lite, come with ample pockets and storage options, allowing golfers to carry all the essentials they need on the course without weighing themselves down with unnecessary items. This means golfers can spend more time enjoying the game and less time rummaging through a heavy bag searching for their tees or golf balls.
The Importance of Durability
You also want a bag that is durable and able to withstand the elements, with plenty of pockets for your clubs, balls, tees, and other accessories. And, of course, you want a bag that looks good and reflects your personal style.
In terms of durability, the Ping Hoofer Lite Stand Bag is made with high-quality materials that can withstand the wear and tear of regular use. The bag's four-way top has anti-flex walls to ensure your clubs stay protected, while the reinforced bracket with leg stop ensures the stand stays sturdy on any terrain. And with seven pockets, including a waterproof valuables pocket and an insulated cooler pocket, you'll have plenty of space to store all your golfing essentials.
More than Just a Simple Bag
Choosing a golf bag with a design that reflects your personality and interests can actually affect your mental state and overall game. The right design can give you a boost of confidence and make you feel good about yourself, which can in turn positively impact your swing and performance on the course.
The Ping Hoofer Lite Stand Bag isn't just practical – it's also stylish. The bag comes in a range of color options to suit any golfer's taste, from classic black and white to bolder colors like teal, lavender, and magenta. The bag also comes in both a sleek and minimalist design, as well as more groovy designs like the White Tropic. Nevertheless, both styles are functional and aesthetically pleasing, making it a great choice for golfers who want a bag that looks as good as it performs.
Additionally, if you are someone who likes to coordinate their golfing attire with their bag, there are plenty of colors and patterns to choose from that will match any style. Having a stylish golf bag can also make a statement about who you are as a player. Ultimately, the design of your golf bag is a personal choice and should be based on your preferences and style. Whether you choose a bold and bright color or a subtle and sophisticated design, the Ping Hoofer Lite Stand Bag offers a range of options to cater to every golfer's taste. By selecting a bag that suits your personality and interests, you can feel confident, focused, and ready to tackle the course.

"All Our Yesterdays" and primarily Spocks interactions with Zarabeth, is one of my favourite Star Trek episodes of all time.
I think I've suffered from "Third Season episode post traumatic syndrome" (3SEPTS) for many years as I almost never watch the final handful of episodes of the season. It's almost like watching the TOS version of a death march or the last days of a loved one with a terminal illness. It's a shame as I bet there are a few good moments mixed in there as well.
The exception might be "Turnabout Intruder," which I do watch on occasion as it has some quirky parts I like (as well as a interesting guest star).
But even that is sad.... the last line spoken in the series is delivered by Shatner, and it is the perfect epitaph for TOS:
"If only.... if only...."

I made these Spicy Beef Nachos as a snack on Super Bowl Sunday. Great for game day, these nachos were so good they were long gone before the Patriots began their miracle second half comeback. Nachos are truly the ultimate comfort snack food.
I love a little zing, so for me fresh jalapenos slices are an absolute must. I don’t necessarily want every jalapeno slice to be super hot, so for some of the slices I remove the flesh and the seeds (the really hot parts), but for others I leave them in for a little extra heat. I also love what the fresh chopped cilantro brings to the table. To me, cilantro brings a delicious hint of lemon-lime earthiness to a dish.
Serve these nachos with plenty of chips to scoop up all of the Spicy Beef Nachos goodness. You can of course mix and match the toppings according to your own preference. Semi-pro tip: thicken up the liquid with 2 tablespoons flour to 1 tablespoon corn starch, mix, and repeat as necessary, so there is not too much liquid when you put the meat over the chips. Too much liquid equals soggy chips.
Enjoy these terrific Spicy Beef Nachos. This is how we do it:
- 4 tablespoons vegetable oil (covering the bottom of a large skillet)
- 1.5-2 lbs ground beef
- 1 large sweet onion (diced)
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 4 cups diced tomatoes (canned, chili-style)
- 2 tablespoons chili powder
- 1 tablespoon chile pepper powder (chipotle or ancho chile pepper powder)
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 2 teaspoons crushed red pepper
- 2 cups of water
- 2 15- ounce cans of red or black kidney beans (drained)
- kosher salt and pepper to taste
- 1 bag (10-13 ounces of sturdy nacho chips)
- sour cream
- fresh shredded lettuce
- fresh diced tomatoes
- fresh cilantro (chopped)
- jalapeno peppers (sliced)
- shredded cheddar (colby-jack, or mexican cheese)
In a large skillet, warm the vegetable oil over medium heat. Saute the onions in the oil for five minutes. Add the garlic and saute for five more minutes.
Add the ground beef, chili powder, chile pepper powder, cumin, light kosher salt, and crushed red pepper and cook until beef is completely browned (5 to 10 minutes).
Add the tomatoes and beans with 3 cups of water, mix well, and bring the chili to a slow boil. Turn the heat to low and continue braising the chili on low heat for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. If there is too much liquid, thicken it up by mixing in 2 tablespoons flour with 1 tablespoon corn starch, repeating as necessary. As it cooks, check the seasoning and correct with salt and pepper.
Fill a large bowl with some of the chips. Sprinkle a few handfuls of the cheese over the chips. Spoon 2 - 3 generous ladelfuls of the chili over the top of the chips and cheese. Put the cheese first so the hot chili can melt the cheese a bit. Top with some lettuce, a few pinches of cilantro, diced tomatoes, 8-10 jalapeno slices, a nice dollop of the sour cream, and anything else you think will work.
Eat and enjoy, using the chips as spoons for all the chili goodness. Make sure you have a drink handy.

All You Need To Know About The Rolling Stones' Irish Plans
The Rolling Stones will jet into Dublin a full week before their massive Croke Park concert, according to today’s Irish Sun.
They will be doing extra press in that week as well as putting the finishing touches to the opening night of their European tour. AND - if you're a super fan and want to see them in the flesh, they will be staying at the Merrion and the Intercontinental in Ballsbridge. That's right - Mick Jagger is planning to stay in The Merrion, and the rest will stay in the Intercontinental. No PJ parties then.
And finally - if you plan on screaming outside their bedrooms... security will be tight. So don't.
And in other news from around the world:
Jessie J has been on the Chinese version of The X Factor as a singer for the past few months. Nobody really knew about it until she won the entire competition this past weekend. This is so odd – she’s been a judge on The Voice UK and Australia, so how has she ended up winning X Factor as a contestant? In China? Quite clever though – the Chinese version is called Singer and has over a billion viewers – and she won! Hello Spotify royalties.
There’s something in the water! Vogue Williams and Kate Hudson last week and more baby news this week! Chris Evans has revealed that he and his wife are expecting twins and Mairead Ronan, formerly of this very show, is also expecting her third this August!

One beaming lady was selling good luck sesame balls--little balls of rice paste wrapped around a center of sweet red bean paste, the whole thing coated in sesame seeds and formed into a perfect little sphere. I asked if I could take her photo, and she almost split her face smiling, as she primped and touched up her hair and pinched her cheeks to make them pink for the photo.
There were several people selling good luck trinkets--bits of carved jade, special pieces of silk cord tied in intricate knots--all of them looked a little like bookmarks to me, and I am not quite sure what people actually do with these good luck bits once they buy them. I don't think there is a New Year's tree to decorate, and I don't see these things dangling from handbags or jacket zippers or bicycle handlebars...so I'm curious!
A little while later, I got a surprise. The crowd density had grown to a point that we were basically at a standstill. Suddenly, I felt two tiny hands--talons, almost--settle on my hips and begin to push with surprising strength. I felt like a snowplow, as I was shoved against the crowd, clearing a path. I finally was able to twist my head to look behind me--and there was a teeny, stooped old lady with iron grey hair and a very determined expression, shoving for all she was worth. We finally drew even with the shop I guess she wanted to visit, and she let go and went inside without a backward look or even a pat on the rump for her plow mule! It was very disconcerting, and very funny.
The yakitori was very good...and the smell was sheer heaven. Sweet, salty, garlicky, all wrapped around the rich aroma of roasting meat. The others in my group played it safe and got either beef or chicken. Not me--I had to be different! So I pointed to skewers of what looked like it might be squid, which I adore. I got the hot, fragrant paper packet and took a bite. Yummmm...garlic, sweet, salty, savory....wait. What?? I hadn't ordered squid. I'd ordered a delicacy enjoyed by many of the elderly in Japan...a skewer composed completely of folded, flabby squares of chicken skin. Yes, chicken skin--not crispy, but flabby and fatty. As good as it smelled, as good as the sauce was, I just couldn't eat two skewers of chicken skin. Luckily, I was able to dispose of the evidence without anyone seeing me, or questioning what I'd purchased. I was so disappointed! But one bad experience among all the good won't stop me from continuing to try all the new and different and wonderful things here in Japan!


Michael D. Goldhaber, The American Lawyer
In 2009, Chevron Corporation was on a path to losing a $9.5 billion judgment in an Amazon courtroom for oil pollution in Ecuador. What the plaintiffs saw as the world’s greatest environmental trial, the company perceived as the world’s greatest litigation fraud. Either way, it evolved into the world’s most intensive dispute. To expose the truth about the Amazon trial—and to neutralize the Ecuadoreans’ indomitable lawyer Steven Donziger—Chevron would eventually hire more than 2,000 professionals from 60 law firms.
Paul Dans was far from the most illustrious. Sure, he had the credentials—two degrees from MIT, years of training as an associate at Dewey & LeBoeuf and Debevoise & Plimpton. But when the music stopped in 2009, Dans was passed over for partnership at a less lofty firm, and he found himself calling old contacts for contract work. He got a call from Miami’s two-partner Rivero Mestre, which represented one of the in-house Chevron lawyers indicted by Ecuador. They wanted a fresh pair of eyes on the case file. In the early summer of 2009 they offered Dans $85 an hour—less than 5 percent of the rate of the top biller at Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher, which has led Chevron’s U.S. counter-strategy. Dans said no. At summer’s end his recruiters came up to $100 an hour, and Dans relented.
Chevron regards the Amazon case as a blood libel, and it is willing to spend what it takes to clear its name. By The American Lawyer’s estimate, America’s third-largest company has spent more than half a billion dollars on litigation costs, which is likely a record for a single dispute. Yet to catch a renegade like Donziger, who worked at his kitchen table in a two-bedroom condo on New York’s Upper West Side, it took another lawyer off the midtown grid, who often worked at his kitchen table in a two-bedroom rental two blocks away. Dans started tugging on the right thread, and Gibson Dunn kept tugging. By the time Chevron and Gibson were done with their ingenious discovery campaign, Donziger would be stripped virtually naked.
Two days after Labor Day 2009, DanS plopped down his things at an empty cubicle with a cathode ray tube monitor at Rivero Mestre. There was a new feature film documenting the Ecuadorean case, “Crude,” and Dans thought that would be a logical place to begin. He clicked on the “Crude” trailer that afternoon, and couldn’t stop clicking. “This is something that you would never do in the United States,” Donziger said on screen as he prepared to ambush a judge with TV news cameras. “It’s dirty.”
Dans replayed the sequence five or 10 times. Well if you would never do it in the U.S., thought Dans, you should never do it anywhere. Did this guy just confess that he checked his ethics at JFK?
Dans saw that the movie was playing at New York’s IFC Center through September 20th. The timing would be rough because he had a visit planned to his wife, who was working in Dublin. Sitting in his Dublin hotel room the morning of the 20th, Dans kept thinking back to the trailer. At the last moment he booked a flight to New York instead of Miami, and bought tickets for the last evening of “Crude.”
Watching the movie in New York, Dans saw a lot more of concern. But he focused on an innocent scene where Donziger let his dog frolic in Riverside Park. Dans knew the location well; he lived two short blocks from Donziger, and jogged every evening past the same park bench. What struck Dans is that the dog was off leash in a park where leash laws were strictly enforced. This is a guy who flouts the rules, he thought.
Back at his desk, Dans noticed that the director, Joe Berlinger, boasted in his production notes of shooting 600 hours of raw footage. If Donziger was so indiscreet in the final cut, he wondered, what might he do in the outtakes?
Blessed with an insider’s legal skills and an outsider’s sense of the possible, Dans whipped up a memo calling for Chevron to subpoena the outtakes. Chevron’s in-house lawyers loved the idea, which was already percolating, but the bigger-name outside counsel urged caution. The media establishment would be in an uproar, and the little hints of misconduct in the movie probably weren’t enough to pierce the filmmaker’s First Amendment shield. Dans’ memo was put on a shelf.
At the time of the movie, both parties agreed that the linchpin of the Ecuadorean trial was the “Cabrera report”—a global damages report by the supposedly independent court-appointed expert Richard Cabrera, recommending up to $27 billion in damages. Cabrera swore unambiguously in Ecuadorean court that he had nothing to do with the plaintiffs, and vowed to operate with complete “independence vis-à-vis the parties.” When challenged, he reaffirmed: “I do not have any relations … with the plaintiffs,” and it’s “an insult against me that I should be linked with [them].”
Nonetheless, Chevron saw a host of small clues that Cabrera was coordinating with the plaintiffs. He openly used plaintiffs’ technicians on his first day of sample collections, and at one later point a plaintiffs’ technician seemed to surreptitiously tap his foot to guide Cabrera’s sampling location. The plaintiffs always seemed to mysteriously arrive in the field at the same time as Cabrera, even when he was hours late, and when Cabrera filed his report, plaintiffs’ staff were in attendance. Why did Cabrera’s report read better in English when it had supposedly been written in Spanish? Why was the plaintiffs’ supposed English translation so much better than Chevron’s, when Chevron could hire the best translators in the world?
Chevron was convinced that Cabrera was in cahoots with the plaintiffs, but as yet it had no smoking gun.
Enter Gibson Dunn. Chevron tapped Gibson Dunn just as the law firm was wrapping up a big win for Dole Food Company Inc. in a case with eerie parallels. In fall 2009, Gibson Dunn convinced a Florida federal court to declare a foreign judgment unenforceable because of corruption in the Nicaraguan courts. In a related case in California state court, Gibson Dunn showed that Nicaraguan farmworkers with children had been coached to swear that pesticides had made them sterile. Gibson Dunn’s Andrea Neuman, who used her niceness as a weapon, broke the case open when she got a Nicaraguan farmworker, who had never even worked on Dole’s banana plantations, to admit that he had been programmed to testify “like a parrot.”
The main lesson that Neuman, now tapped by Chevron, drew from the Dole litigation is that a company targeted by a foreign plaintiffs’ fraud needed to aggressively expose it through the U.S. courts. “Global offense, domestic defense,” is how she thought of it.
But Dole’s foes had come to the U.S. themselves—suing in California, and trying to collect a Nicaraguan judgment in Florida. How could Chevron get the Ecuadorean plaintiffs into U.S. court? The answer was a then-obscure law called 28 U.S.C. §1782, which allowed for U.S. discovery in aid of foreign actions. Wielding §1782, Neuman ultimately won more than 20 discovery actions from coast to coast. Chevron’s in-house counsel took to calling her Top Gun.
Neuman suspected that plaintiffs’ scientists at Stratus Consulting stood behind Cabrera, because she recognized Cabrera’s arguments from Stratus mediation papers. She urged a frontal attack. After much internal debate, Chevron opened its discovery campaign with a demand for Stratus’ work product in December 2009. Once a Denver judge granted that motion in March 2010, it was only a matter of time before Chevron confirmed its suspicions about the Cabrera report: It was based on Stratus work product. Yet the plaintiffs still did not roll over. The strategy, as Donziger described it in a series of emails with his discovery lawyers in late spring, was to “fight hard on all fronts all the time and concede nothing, buy as much time as possible.”
In internal discussions, one Donziger adviser floated an alternative approach: “I wonder whether we do better by explaining that we authored the report—rather than letting Chevron tell that story like Nancy Drew.” Luckily for fans of legal thrillers and narrative nonfiction, he failed to carry the day.
Chevron put some ingenious detectives on the ghostwriters’ trail. But improbably, its closest answer to Nancy Drew was its soft-spoken chief scientist on the case, Sara McMillen. To prove Cabrera’s ties to the plaintiffs, McMillen focused on a health study done by a Spanish biologist named Carlos Beristain as part of the Cabrera report.
The first hint that Beristain’s independence was compromised came when the plaintiffs accidentally sent an email to Chevron’s local lawyer that referred to a health study by the plaintiffs. McMillen thought that it sounded suspiciously like the Beristain study cited in the Cabrera report. Googling Beristain, she found a Spanish nonprofit’s website that cited the plaintiffs’ group as a participant in Beristain’s health study. To McMillen, this suggested that the two studies were one and the same.
When Chevron told the Ecuadorean court what it had found, the plaintiffs accused Chevron of fabrication, and the Spanish Web page vanished. McMillen, who had saved a screenshot, was shocked by plaintiffs’ brazenness. This fraud goes even deeper, she thought to herself.
McMillen recalled a scene in “Crude” where the plaintiffs’ team talked about health issues with indigenous residents in the community of Dureno. She felt in her gut that this meeting was part of the supposedly independent health study that Beristain conducted for the Cabrera report. Neuman’s lieutenant, Mike Crimmins, a Gibson Dunn counsel who later left the firm to head the detective agency Investigative Research Inc., directed Chevron’s gumshoes at Kroll to hone in on the Dureno scene. Their goal was to look for evidence that the plaintiffs and Cabrera—who swore they had nothing to do with each other—were inappropriately mixing their functions and personnel.
On the morning of March 24, 2009, Kroll associate Tamar Brott rolled into the suburban Los Angeles driveway of Sam Anson, a former journalist who was leaving Kroll to form his own investigative boutique, called Custom Information Services. They had already begun to log “Crude” footage, and they were all set to continue that morning. But Brott discovered she’d left her flash drive with a copy of “Crude” at home, and Anson’s wasn’t working. Anson gave his younger colleague a hard time. Brott didn’t want to drive home during an L.A. rush hour. She suggested that they look for a live-streamed version. They found one on Netflix, and began to review the Dureno scene.
Five seconds into the scene in the Netflix version, a man in a wide-brimmed hat strolled across the floor. Anson and Brott were riveted: That man was not in the DVD version. At 19 to 24 seconds, the camera again panned past him, arms crossed and head nodding. At 31 to 32 seconds, the man who wasn’t there was writing notes on a whiteboard. And he looked very familiar.
Anson called Crimmins on the phone. “Beristain’s in ‘Crude!'” he said. “He’s in the Dureno scene.” It was the connection they were looking for. Crimmins told Anson to get a high-definition camera and tripod and film the computer screen. They knew they had found the smoking gun, and they didn’t want it to disappear without a trace. To find a link between the plaintiffs and Cabrera’s team was good. If it turned out plaintiffs were trying to cover it up, that’d be even better.
Later that day, Gibson Dunn emailed Rivero Mestre to ask for their latest draft petition to subpoena the “Crude” outtakes. Chevron filed it two weeks later.
In the litigation that followed, Donziger’s attorneys asserted that the cut footage had no relevance to Chevron’s claims. When Cabrera’s team mixed with the plaintiffs’ team at the Dureno meeting, they argued, it was as innocuous as a few New York lawyers bumping into each other at a cocktail party. First Amendment guru Floyd Abrams—representing The New York Times, Dow Jones, CBS and CNN—argued that discovering outtakes would chill documentary filmmaking.
Judge Pierre Leval of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, a well-respected liberal, took the First Amendment argument with the seriousness it deserved. But he reasoned that the “independence of the journalistic process is crucial”—and he concluded that “Crude” was not independent journalism. It bothered the court that Donziger had solicited the director, Joe Berlinger, to make the film. And it especially bothered the court that Berlinger had cut the Dureno footage at the plaintiffs’ demand. Indeed, in an email that turned up in discovery the plaintiffs’ local lawyer Pablo Fajardo had veritably begged Berlinger to make the cut: “This is so serious that we could lose everything, or a great deal, just because of these minuscule shots. I ask that you help me with this—for me this is extremely urgent.”
Berlinger complied, and the price was to hand over his 600 hours of outtakes. It later emerged that both the film and the litigation were mostly financed by a law school friend of Donziger, online gaming mogul Russell DeLeon.
On July 22, 2010, the first files of “Crude” outtakes crossed the desk of Gibson Dunn associate Kristen Hendricks. The first scene she looked at was from March 3, 2007. It showed the plaintiffs side all but giving Cabrera marching orders. In a PowerPoint session with Cabrera present, Fajardo told his troops to “make certain that the expert constantly coordinates with the plaintiffs’ technical and legal team.” Chevron’s “main problem right now is that it doesn’t know what the hell is going to happen,” he joked. “I hope none of you tell them, please.”
After the appreciative laughter faded, Fajardo summed up. According to Chevron’s translation: “What the expert is going to do is state his criteria, alright, and sign the report and review it. … But all of us, all together, have to contribute to that report.”
Cabrera showed up on camera for only five seconds near the start of the seven-hour meeting—and the camera seemed to rush by—but there was no doubt he was there. The next day at breakfast, a plaintiffs’ consultant suggested that it was “bizarre” that Cabrera had been in attendance. Donziger tugged on his earlobe, and told the cameraman that the conversation was off the record.
Hendricks left a voicemail for Crimmins: “You were right. Call me.” As the lawyers found more and more “hot clips,” they circulated them internally.
“Amazing,” remarked Gibson Dunn partner William Thomson. “Everything you always knew to be true, but there it is on the screen.”
The American Lawyer magazine petitioned U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan for the outtakes, and posted highlights at americanlawyer.com. Yet Donziger was ready with explanations. Suddenly, it seemed that the relationship with Cabrera that he had hidden and denied for three years was perfectly legitimate, and to suggest otherwise was disrespectful to Ecuadorean legal culture. Suddenly, after three years of touting Cabrera publicly and privately as the trial’s linchpin, Donziger asserted he was just another expert. This played well in the media. But the U.S. courts weren’t convinced, and they gave the green light to almost any discovery that Chevron requested.
“What has blatantly occurred in this matter would in fact be considered fraud by any court,” observed one magistrate judge. The “Crude” outtakes, remarked another, “sent shockwaves through the nation’s legal communities, primarily because the footage shows, with unflattering frankness, inappropriate, unethical and perhaps illegal conduct.”
To take discovery against Donziger himself, Chevron pulled in Gibson Dunn’s Randy Mastro. A Rudy Giuliani protégé, Mastro had made his name as a prosecutor purging the Mafia from the Teamsters union, and as deputy mayor purging the Mafia from Fulton Fish Market. It surprised no one when, at a three-hour hearing in Manhattan federal court on Sept. 23, 2010, Mastro called the Amazon litigation against Chevron “a racketeering enterprise that would make even the mob blush.” Mastro’s rhetoric was a sign of things to come. More immediately, he argued that Donziger had surrendered the protections of attorney-client privilege by committing fraud in the jungle and inviting cameras to track it frame by frame.
After watching a collection of greatest hits from the “Crude” outtakes in open court, Judge Kaplan remarked from the bench that Donziger operated less as a lawyer than the case’s “field general.”
Donziger’s conduct went “far beyond the role that lawyers customarily play,” Kaplan said, and he was prepared to grant discovery far beyond what is normally allowed against lawyers. “You’d be well-advised to start getting the material together,” he told Donziger’s counsel.
As its foes played for time, Chevron filed motions to compel discovery on both main fronts. On Oct. 1, after months of stonewalling by Stratus, the Denver judge ordered the consultancy to produce its workpapers; Stratus complied on the night before the deposition of its lead scientist on Oct. 6.
Gibson Dunn was expecting the document dump, and had signed up lawyers to stay up all night for what Crimmins gleefully called a “smoking gun treasure hunt.”
A team led by Pete Seley spread thousands of documents across a Denver conference table. Almost immediately, they began finding drafts of Cabrera’s annexes, and outlines of the Cabrera report. When anyone found a splashy document, they competed for attention with a blustery “listen to this email,” or “you won’t believe this.”
About 2:30 a.m. they found what they fondly called the “chart o’ fraud.” It was a table of the Cabrera report annexes, with one column identifying the real author (not Cabrera), and another identifying the attributed author (usually Cabrera). In one version of the chart there were final columns to check off for Donziger’s approval of the each section’s English version (which was really the original), and Donziger’s approval of each section’s Spanish version (really the translation).
The treasure hunt crew was stunned at the audacity of Donziger and his consultants. They hadn’t just helped Cabrera write the report, as Fajardo suggested that they would in the PowerPoint meeting. They wrote the bulk themselves, and had Cabrera pass it off as his own.
When confronted with the latest evidence, Donziger admitted under oath that Stratus ghostwrote the executive summary and 11 of 24 annexes nearly verbatim, but continued to insist that it was perfectly lawful.
Meanwhile in New York, Mastro complained that Donziger was holding back as well. Kaplan ordered more discovery, and 90,000 new Donziger emails arrived while Donziger was mid-deposition. Again, Chevron’s challenge was not to find a needle in the haystack, but to gauge which needle would prick sharpest. The Gibson Dunn lawyers rapidly built files of “hot docs,” “very hot docs” and “super hot docs.”
At 1:30 a.m. on Jan. 19, 2011, Gibson Dunn associate Virginia Fitt found a no-brainer super hot doc. After the §1782 motion against Stratus was initially granted, the junior Ecuadorean lawyer Julio Prieto wrote in an email to Donziger: “The problem, my friend, is that the effects are potentially devastating in Ecuador (apart from destroying the proceeding, all of us, your attorneys, might go to jail)”. The Ecuadorean case leaders, who were copied on the email, followed up by asking the Ecuadorean judge to shut down the Stratus §1782.
When Mastro awoke at 6:30 a.m., he read the Prieto email in his inbox. This panicked email was the perfect retort to Donziger’s new argument that secretly ghostwriting a court report was fine and dandy in Ecuador. Mastro ordered a rushed translation, and had one ready by 10 a.m. for Donziger’s deposition.
The special master deputized by Kaplan to handle discovery exploded with fury at Donziger’s counsel: “I’ve been sitting here and seeing emails that I, I, I don’t know what words to use. … The test of a good faith of a production is whether you’ve produced the documents you wish you didn’t have that are relevant. I cannot imagine, as I sit here, any document that is more relevant and that you couldn’t have less wished you had.” On Jan. 27, Kaplan ordered a mirror image of Donziger’s hard drive.

Wanting it all or nothing at all means if I cannot have a man or friends that are fully involved with me, then I’d rather be alone completely. I don’t have time for fake people, but for the right people I’ll make all the time in the world for.
Having a real best friend is someone that’s there for you too in the same ways you’re there for them. I do not trust anyone anymore because they just use me for their own selfish benefit then act like I’m the bad guy when I’m upset because they ditched me when they were done with me. Fuck that. People lie so well that it makes me sick. Use my generosity, my care, my love, then they’re gone.
I think most people are good, but there’s a ton of very bad people in all of our lives that like loitering around using every piece of you they can.
Liars, druggies, whores, narcissists, manipulators, etc. We all have or had them in our lives.
There are so many fake people these days that its ridiculous. They’ll smile right in your face while taking something from your back pocket. Or seem to be trustworthy, only to find out they’ve made you out to be a joke to everyone around you when they’re the joke for a fact.
When I was married I didn’t hang around a lot of people & honestly that’s the right thing to do anymore. Ever since my divorce I have met some of the most cruelest people in the world. So what that boils down to is I shouldn’t allow just anyone to even ‘peak through the window’ to view my life. Personal information about me will no longer be available due this fact. Whoever is my forever will probably be the only one that’ll ever know anything about me.
I want it all or nothing.
Do you ever wish you could take back your secrets from people? Boy I do! I don’t like anyone knowing what I’m doing anymore. Hell I even want my sex back from some, they did NOT deserve that part of me. I don’t care if I just went to pee….you don’t need to know. But yes, I want my information about me back. There’s not one out there that deserves to have learned anything about me, that part sucks because you cannot get it back.
Just in the past few days I have deleted unopened messages because I’m so done talking to strangers. I don’t want anyone else in my business. And the people I’m talking about is the ones that attempt to ‘date’ or ‘talk’, asking all kinds of personal questions. And some I think are just my stalker or someone stalking/watching for them. Ya never know.
I don’t feel that I’m wrong at all for going incognito. Several have flat out abused my friendship & trust to the point that I’m extremely skeptical of everyone. The most I talk is right here in my blog, but details still cannot find their way out because I know who’s stalking me & they don’t deserve shit.
I’m definitely done with one sided relationships. I’ve had enough of that to last me a life time. The cruelest people in the world is those that use you for their own benefit then disappear like you were nothing to them.
What goes around will most definitely find its way back around to you! Without lube.. You cannot escape it, you’re doomed. Treat people badly all you want, but just know in the back of your mind that when karma returns to you, that its your payback not a hard time. Big difference! There’ll be none of that ‘feel sorry for me’ bullshit. Deal with what you handed out.
I may sound a little evil here & there, but I suppose the pain from being treated so poorly rises up ever so often. Which will actually keep me from being stupid again.
A person being caught in a lie by me causes me to shut down on them now. I’ll never look at you the same let along speak to you for awhile, if I ever do. I can forgive, but I’m far from an idiot.
Wanting it all means: No….lies, cheating, sexting, entertaining another female in anyway, stealing, being fake, dragging me down, playing mind games, only choosing me because you don’t want to be alone, no hiding anything from me, putting me down, you MUST be completely single, NO drugs, and the list goes on & on & on. I just want someone that’s real for a change. Sick of these fuck boys who are nothing but confused emotionally & have no idea what they truly want so they just sleep with everyone. Immature.
I guess I sound a little cranky here but its just that I’m so fed up with these types of people. They sneak in on you then..boom you figure them out after they’ve kinda gotten your trust a little.
I’m somewhat working on an article right now about narcissists. I’m so sick of them! My stalker is definitely one! That’s what really got my interest in it & everything so far that I’ve read is nothing but the truth. For one they manipulate people to love them & they show fake love to get what they want from you. Nothing but liars. They don’t really ‘love’ anyone, its all fake. That being fake will surface after they’ve drained you & convinced you that they love you. Its all part of their game.
Okay well, I’ll try to finish that next post tonight.
This is my blog. My personal journal type blog. I own full rights to it. I own the website. I can & will write anything I so choose to write about. (That was said because I’ve had a couple of people dare me to basically call them out. That would be from those that have wronged me & they’re afraid of others knowing. I’ve never put anyone’s name in here, I don’t want anyone to know the trash that I dealt with, its an embarrassment.)
Anyway my blog is about life & troubles we go through so I think I’m going to do a couple of articles on situations & types of people that I’ve personally dealt with. I’m sure most of you will be able to relate.
Love you, Lori
P.S. Have a beautiful day!!!!

When you are dieting, you tend to form a habit of watching the food you eat. However, every now and then, you will set aside a day or two for the week to splurge on guilty pleasures. While it is considered a norm for most dieters to incorporate cheat meals into a diet plan, some may end up eating too many high-calorie foods that consist of snacks, fried foods and milkshakes, which literally cancels out half of your weekly calorie and exercise goals. However, cheat meals have successfully made its way into the mainstream diet culture through various media outlets such as social media and magazines.
Due to the rise in the obesity epidemic, this has piqued the interest in effective and fast weight loss methods among people who are interested in losing weight. With that said, cheat meals are something that could make weight loss easier. These plans allow you to reap significant benefits while sticking to a strict diet and exercise goal. In fact, these diet cheat plans almost always prosper during your weight loss efforts. Reason being, the occasional cheat meal is known to boost your metabolism and ward off any feelings of deprivation, which improve your ability to lose weight and ability to stick to a diet plan.
On the topic of cheat meals, it is the perfect solution to your dietary malaise. It is a meal where you can eat almost everything that you have been craving for and casting aside temporary notions of maintaining strict calorie counts and food restrictions. The goal of cheat meals is to get your fix, thereby reducing any further cravings that may threaten to disrupt your progress in the future.
If you want to lose weight and have made plans to include some cheat meals into your weight loss goals, continue reading this article to understand the benefits of cheat meals and whether it really works.
Benefits Of Cheat Meals
Tricky as it may sound, you can achieve a successful diet and weight loss plan by following a set of rules. Some days, you are able to function just fine with a meal that consists of chicken, vegetables and rice. Other days, you may feel an overwhelming urge and inability to resist eating an entire piece of pizza.
For those who are interested in losing weight, you are fortunate enough to be able to incorporate some motivation-saving cheat meals into any diet. However, there is always a right and a wrong way to do a cheat meal which can aid in your weight loss efforts. Doing it wrongly can undoubtedly hinder your overall weight loss goals.
If you are on a strict diet regime, you may have been longing for the coveted cheat meal, where even the most chiselled gym junkie would lose their mind sticking to a strict diet regime for a period of time. To help you cope with your diet, you may consider a cheat meal that consists of cups of vegetables and chicken breasts. Not only does it make your diet seem more feasible psychologically, but a cheat meal also prevents you from loading up on junk food.
As a matter of fact, a cheat meal acts as a psychological reward. It helps you to keep a healthy lifestyle day in and out and prevents you from becoming mundane. Therefore, knowing that a cheat day is coming could help you stay motivated.
Besides the mental benefit, an occasional cheat meal can trigger leptin, a protein produced by fat tissue which aids in regulating body weight and fat mass. Ultimately, this will impact your appetite and energy balance in the body.
Do Cheat Meals Really Work?
1. Cheat Meals Add Variety
When you are dieting, it makes more sense to base the majority of your diet around foods that consists of relatively few calories per gram and have high levels of either protein or fibre. Reason being, these foods can help to keep you fuller for longer periods whereas more energy-dense foods such as sweets and fast foods which mainly makes up of cheat meals are considered less satisfying. In fact, setting a limit on the intake of certain foods can make it much easier for you to keep to your weight loss plan. If you are planning to include a cheat meal to your weekly meal plan, you will be allowed to work in foods that you may have sorely miss or temporarily restricted yourself to. Alternatively, you may consider a diet strategy that consists of “food substitutes”, which creates lower calorie versions of your favourite cheat meals. Some examples of it include vegetables, protein powders and yoghurts.
2. Cheat Meals Give You Something To Look Forward
It is undeniable that fat loss diets will require a level of discipline and attention to detail, where the majority of your friends, family and colleagues may find it difficult to understand. Not only will it be difficult to sustain a cheat meal indefinitely, but it usually lasts for a relatively short period of time and requires you to have a sustainable and highly focused approach. Therefore, scheduling cheat meals in advance can put the brakes on long periods of dieting, which can make it more manageable and provide you with something to look forward to.

Turkey, a land where diverse cultures and flavors converge, is renowned for its rich culinary heritage. Among the many delights that grace Turkish tables, mezes stand out as a vibrant array of appetizers that capture the essence of the country’s gastronomic diversity. From the Aegean coast to the bustling streets of Istanbul, mezes are an integral part of Turkish dining, offering a tantalizing journey through flavors, textures, and traditions. In this article, we embark on a culinary tour, exploring the world of Turkish mezes and the stories they tell.
Haydari: Creamy Yogurt Bliss
Our journey begins with haydari, a classic Turkish meze that exemplifies the country’s love for yogurt-based dishes. Combining strained yogurt with minced garlic, fresh mint, and a drizzle of olive oil, haydari offers a refreshing burst of flavors. Served as a dip with warm, fluffy Turkish bread or as an accompaniment to grilled meats, haydari is a creamy delight that reflects the simplicity and elegance of Turkish cuisine.
Muhammara: The Red Jewel of Turkish Mezes
Venturing further into the meze spectrum, we encounter muhammara, a vibrant red pepper and walnut spread originating from the southeastern region of Turkey. Roasted red peppers, walnuts, garlic, and olive oil are blended to create a silky, savory paste with a hint of sweetness. Muhammara’s bold flavors make it a standout meze, often paired with fresh vegetables or crusty bread, providing a tantalizing journey for the taste buds.
Zeytinyağlı Yaprak Sarma: Grape Leaves Bursting with Flavor
Zeytinyağlı yaprak sarma, or stuffed grape leaves, is a meze that encapsulates the essence of Turkish culinary artistry. Grape leaves are delicately filled with a mixture of rice, pine nuts, and herbs, creating bite-sized parcels bursting with flavors. The rolls are then simmered in a zesty olive oil and lemon juice bath, infusing them with a citrusy, herbal essence. Zeytinyağlı yaprak sarma exemplifies the mastery of balancing textures and tastes that defines Turkish mezes.
Patlıcan Salatası: Smoky Elegance of Eggplant Salad
Eggplants take center stage in patlıcan salatası, a smoky and velvety meze that highlights the versatility of this vegetable. Grilled or roasted eggplants are mashed and blended with garlic, yogurt, and olive oil, creating a luscious salad with a depth of flavors. The smokiness of the eggplants, combined with the creaminess of yogurt, makes patlıcan salatası a delightful accompaniment to Turkish kebabs or a standalone dip for crusty bread.
Midye Dolma: Mussels Filled with Delight
Seafood enthusiasts rejoice at the sight of midye dolma, a meze that elevates mussels to a culinary art form. Mussels are carefully filled with a delectable mixture of spiced rice, pine nuts, and currants, creating bite-sized bursts of flavor. Steamed to perfection, midye dolma is often served with a squeeze of lemon, offering a tantalizing combination of textures and tastes that reflects the coastal influences in Turkish cuisine.
Hummus: A Turkish Twist on a Global Favorite
While hummus has gained worldwide popularity, the Turkish version adds its own unique flair to this beloved dish. Turkish hummus is enriched with tahini, garlic, and a generous drizzle of olive oil, resulting in a creamy and flavorful spread. Served with a sprinkle of sumac and a dash of paprika, Turkish hummus is a testament to the country’s ability to take global favorites and infuse them with a local touch.
Cacık: Cooling Cucumber Yoghurt Soup
As our meze journey continues, we encounter cacık, a refreshing yogurt soup that provides a cooling contrast to bolder flavors. Cacık features yogurt blended with finely chopped cucumbers, mint, and a hint of garlic, creating a light and invigorating dish. Served chilled, cacık is a popular meze during the warm Turkish summers, offering a respite from the heat and a burst of revitalizing flavors.
Turkish mezes, with their diverse flavors, textures, and cultural influences, offer a culinary journey that is both delightful and revealing. From the creamy indulgence of haydari to the bold richness of muhammara, each meze tells a story of regional traditions, local ingredients, and the artistry that defines Turkish cuisine. As these appetizers grace tables across the country, they embody the spirit of sharing, connection, and celebration that is at the heart of Turkish hospitality. Whether enjoyed in a bustling meyhane or savored during a leisurely family meal, mezes are not just appetizers; they are an invitation to explore the intricate and flavorful world of Turkish culinary art.

CEL-SCI Corporation (NYSE Amex: CVM), a late-stage oncology company and a developer of vaccines and therapeutics for the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases, announced today that it has retained the services of an international Contract Research Organization (CRO) to run CEL-SCI's upcoming Phase III clinical trial in advanced primary head and neck cancer with the Company's lead product candidate, Multikine®. This CRO is considered to be one of the world's top CRO's for running global oncology studies.
The impending Phase III trial is expected to enroll up to 800 patients with advanced primary head and neck cancer in multiple countries around the world. It will evaluate Multikine's ability to increase the overall survival of treated patients when used in conjunction with the current standard of care treatment.
"We are very pleased to have retained the services of a well respected and internationally recognized CRO which specializes in conducting late-stage oncology trials to guide our pivotal Phase III trial for Multikine," said Geert Kersten, Chief Executive Officer of CEL-SCI. "After carefully evaluating many competing organizations, we have chosen this CRO based on their extensive experience in managing global clinical trials of medicines ultimately approved for the treatment of cancer."
In Phase II clinical trials Multikine was shown to be safe and well-tolerated, and to improve patients' overall survival by 33% at a median of three and a half years following surgery. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) gave the go-ahead for a Phase III clinical trial and granted orphan drug status to Multikine in the neoadjuvant therapy of squamous cell carcinoma (cancer) of the head and neck. CEL-SCI recently took delivery of its new state of the art manufacturing facility which will produce Multikine for the upcoming Phase III trial.

Jeopardy! has been at the center of some negative press recently.
The long-running quiz show rejected an 8th-grade player’s technically correct Final Jeopardy! answer, as he added an extra letter to the first word, spelling it incorrectly.
The game show’s Facebook fan page blew up with fan responses after the incident, with the predominant tone being outrage.
One fan posted: “Shame on you Jeopardy & Alex!!”
The question that Thomas Hurley of Newtown, Conn. was given was as follows: “Abraham Lincoln called this document, which took effect in 1863, ‘a fit and necessary war measure.’” Thomas’ answer was “What is the Emanciptation Proclamation,” and that extra “t” after the “p” was enough to count as a wrong answer.
Receiving credit for the response would not have won the game for Thomas, but most fans don’t seem to care about that detail. Alex’s response has a note of condescension in it, and he rubs a little salt on the wound when he points out that eventual record-breaking winner, Skyler Hornback, spelled emancipation correctly.
Fans have been castigating the show, as well as Alex, for their meticulous ruling, with one fan stating: “Come on Jeopardy, this is a quiz show NOT! a SPELLING BEE.”
While I don’t feel that it was necessary to be quite so harsh with Thomas, I can’t say that I believe Jeopardy! was in the wrong on this one. Jeopardy! is a game of knowledge and wits; correct spelling included.
After the original Huffington Post article was released, Jeopardy! producers issued a rebuttal: “If Jeopardy! were to give credit for an incorrect response (however minor), the show would effectively penalize the other players. We love presenting young people as contestants on our show, and make every effort to be fair and consistent in their treatment.”
Makes sense to me.

When I lived in Germany,we went on a tour of a sign making factory
(where they made industrially enameled street signs, house numbers
etc…) And when we were done they gave us a bunch of tupperwares
filled with this industrial enamel to experiment with.
The industrial enamel is like a thick suspension of enamel dust in
water. It was fun to work with as it is not so picky, works fast and
makes a thick strong coat. It is also formulated for steel which
makes it an even better solution than traditional enamels.
When we used it, we made our steel piece very clean by attaching a
wire(to hold it) and dunking in some kind of light acid/ cleaner to
get rid of finger oils.
Then we dunked it in the base coat enamel (grey) took it out, hung
it up by the wire, and blew the coating dry with a hairdryer. Then
you cook it in the kiln, take it out and repeat with a colored dunk.
Some people said you don’t really need the base coat, but since we
had it, I always used it.
One coating of color should suffice- as it is pretty thick. It has
some really neat qualities- and is fun to experiment with…Colors
are all opaque. Our containers of enamel have lasted for years- you
just add a bit more water now and then.
I was thinking that if you had a local sign shop/ factory in your
area- maybe you could bring some containers over and nicely ask for
a sample. Or maybe Google sign making supply. I always find when it
is jewelry supply- it is more expensive than other industries…

The Internet Thinks Harry Styles Spat on Chris Pine at Venice Film Festival
The ‘Don’t Worry Darling’ drama continues.
In case you missed it, there’s some drama happening around Don’t Worry Darling, and a recent video clip of Harry Styles and Chris Pine has the internet believing that there’s even more drama to unpack.
Long story short, the internet has been going wild over the feud between the movie’s cast members. According to CNET, Olivia Wilde replaced Shia LaBeouf with Styles to play Jack Chambers. The filmmaker said in an interview, “His process was not conducive to the ethos that I demand in my productions. He has a process that, in some ways, seems to require a combative energy … I believe that creating a safe, trusting environment is the best way to get people to do their best work.” LaBeouf later responded by claiming that he wasn’t fired, but actually quit himself. The drama also involves Florence Pugh, whom Wilde says she’s had conflict with.
Ever since the news broke, Twitter has been flooded with tweets about the drama, which seems to be getting more attention than the movie itself. The buzz escalated in a recent clip in which Styles seems to be spitting on Chris Pine, who stars alongside Styles and Pugh in the film, at the Venice Film Festival.
“The Spit >>>> The Slap,” one user wrote, referencing Will Smith’s slap at this year’s Academy Awards. Meanwhile, others are claiming that there’s no way the musician spat on the Star Trek actor. “I think Harry did spit but it was an accident, like he was saying something and spit flew and Chris noticed,” a user commented, while another wrote, “Idk, the way Harry sort of looked at him after he did it … it’s giving petty.”
Watch the clip below.
