The Biggest Loser program has come under attack with recent revelations that its amazing, as-seen-on-TV results are both pharmaceutically assisted and likely to reverse. Living proof that the medical community’s understanding of weight loss is still evolving: The diet still stands in third place on US News’ & World Report’s list for Best Fast Weight Loss.
You know that recording what you consume is a good way to keep your weight in check, but Brittany Hicks, who dropped 110 pounds in college, didn't only write down what she ate—she also wrote down why she was eating it. "I realized I'd been using food to cope with stress," she says. "Just noticing that helped me do it less." Make sure you're not making these food journal mistakes so you can reap the rewards of eating and jotting, too.
That’s because it theoretically causes a mild ketosis (yep, the basis of the keto diet), which is a fat-burning state that should make you feel less hungry. The key in being successful with a low-carb diet (especially if you’re used to a more high-carb lifestyle) is to compensate for those lost carbs with protein-rich foods, says Dr. Cheskin. That way, your volume of food stays the same, but you’re doing it healthfully rather than in a way that exacerbates your weight gain.
The main advantage of the low-carb diet is that it causes you to want to eat less. Even without counting calories most overweight people eat far fewer calories on low carb. Sugar and starch may increase your hunger, while avoiding them may decrease your appetite to an adequate level. If your body wants to have an appropriate number of calories you don’t need to bother counting them. Thus: Calories count, but you don’t need to count them.
Most people who want to lose weight have more than 12 pounds to lose. That’s why even the best weight loss drug in the world can only be an optional complement to other treatment. That’s why this piece of advice is number 18 out of 18. It may be a helpful addition for some people, but the advice higher on the list is what can make the biggest difference, by far.
Sugary treats, while obviously delicious, aren’t very good for our bodies—and that includes our tummies. Not only do the added calories add inches to our waistlines, but sugar overload leads to insulin resistance, which tells the body to store extra fat around the waist. But that’s long-term stuff. Sugar also bloats your tummy in the short-term by feeding the bad bacteria in your gut, leading to extra gas. When it comes to flattening your belly, nixing sugar is one of the best things you can do including these 42 other easy tips to lose weight fast!
Salt, in moderation, is a good thing—the mineral is necessary for a healthy heart and brain. But too much salt and you’ll retain water, bloating up like a water balloon. Cutting salt is one of the primary ways to drop extra water weight (one reason you may see a big weight loss when starting a new diet!). Move the salt shaker off your table so you’ll get out of the habit of routinely salting all your food. Then if you taste your food and still really want salt you can still stand up and get some. For more weight loss benefits, add these fat-burning foods to your plate to help you lose weight.
Weight Watchers is a household name for the majority of Americans. Why? Because it works. In fact, the U.S News and World Report named this the best weight-loss diet for 2016 in their annual rankings — and with good reason. The balanced program lets you eat what you want, track your choices via a points system, and build a weight loss support network with fellow Weight Watchers' members.
Whereas many beverages can increase your waistline (see above), there is one that is guaranteed to trim your tummy: water. Drinking plain ol’ H2O works because staying fully hydrated tells your body it’s okay to release any extra water it’s retaining, decreasing the accompanying bloat. Plus, drinking water has been proven to reduce cravings for sweets, lower your appetite, and help you feel satiated faster. Here 9 more ways to bust belly fat in a single day!
Try not to think that you can't eat certain foods because you're "too overweight." According to the National Eating Disorder Association, dieting, drive for thinness, and body dissatisfaction can become internalized at a young age and lead to an eating disorder. Change your mindset to celebrate the healthy foods you're eating because they're helping your body stay healthy and energized.
If you follow food trends, you might think you have to fall in love with cauliflower and kale to reap all the rewards that veggies offer, but that isn’t the case. Be it broccoli, sweet potatoes, carrots, red peppers, cabbage, spinach, or any other vegetable, the idea is to eat a variety of them and find plenty of ways to enjoy their goodness. So if you just can’t stomach steamed Brussels sprouts, try them roasted, or give sautéed Brussels sprouts a try. If raw zucchini isn’t your thing, see if you like it spiralized into noodles or grilled on a grill pan.
Even tiny changes in thyroid function can meddle with the way your body processes food for fuel because thyroid hormones affect metabolism and how your body deals with weight. When thyroid hormone levels drop too low, you can start gaining weight. You may also have other symptoms that don’t seem connected — low energy, feeling cold a lot, skin issues or hair loss.
Unintentional weight loss may result from loss of body fats, loss of body fluids, muscle atrophy, or even a combination of these. It is generally regarded as a medical problem when at least 10% of a person's body weight has been lost in six months or 5% in the last month. Another criterion used for assessing weight that is too low is the body mass index (BMI). However, even lesser amounts of weight loss can be a cause for serious concern in a frail elderly person.
At the heart of its flexible system: SmartPoints. SmartPoints derive primarily from number of calories; sugar and saturated fat drive the number up, protein brings it down. Getting a feel for the number of points that different foods typically “cost” in order to stay on your daily “budget” is a great way to cultivate healthy decision-making: A fried chicken wing is 7 points, while 3 oz. of chicken breast without the skin is 2 points. A sugar-laden Coca-Cola is 9 points, but so is a dinner-sized serving of Moroccan chicken rice and potatoes. Some foods are zero points: fruits and vegetables, skinless chicken and turkey breast, seafood, eggs, nonfat yogurt. Being encouraged to eat certain items in this way helps to restructure your mindset around food.
That’s because strength training helps you build muscle, which will replace body fat. In fact, strength training is one of the few activities you can do to spike the amount of calories you burn, even after you’re done with your workout. Bonus: When your metabolic rate becomes faster due to muscle growth, you’ll have a little more wiggle room in your diet if that’s something you struggle with, says Dr. Cheskin.
Sure, you can lose weight quickly. There are plenty of fad diets that work to shed pounds rapidly -- while leaving you feeling hungry and deprived. But what good is losing weight only to regain it? To keep pounds off permanently, it's best to lose weight slowly. And many experts say you can do that without going on a "diet." Instead, the key is making simple tweaks to your lifestyle.


Virat Kohli Has Been Accused Of Ball Tampering, This Video Shows Him Applying Mint To It
In a video published by a South African newspaper group IOL, Indian Test captain Virat Kohli is seen shining the ball during India's first Test against England at Rajkot in a similar manner to which that had prompted International Cricket Council (ICC) to action against South African skipper Faf du Plessis.
Plessis, who was charged with ball tampering during the second Test against Australia in Hobart after the ICC reviewed footage of the match that appeared to show du Plessis applying saliva to the ball with a lolly in his mouth, has now been allowed to play the third Test but will be fined a portion of his match fees.
In the footage published by IOL, Kohli is seen rubbing his right-hand fingers with an artificial substance inside his mouth - most probably a chewing gum - and then proceeding to shine the ball applying saliva to the ball.
Du Plessis was charged for breaching Article 2.2.9 of the ICC Code of Conduct after television footage appeared to show him applying an artificial substance to the ball and Kohli's action in the footage looks very similar.


Jeremy Clarkson claims he has spent thousands of pounds consulting lawyers trying to come up with a name for his new Amazon Prime motoring show.
The former Top Gear presenter says most of his suggestions have been ruled out by legal advisors as they have ‘already been trademarked’ reports The Mirror.
Although, they may have just been trying to steer him away from such shit suggestions as, Speedwolf, Wolfbird and Auto-mates. Jesus.
In his Sunday Times column he said:
I spend at least six hours a day in my office sucking creatively on a Biro as I wait for the daily ‘Anything yet?’ phone call from Amazon in Los Angeles.
Every morning, I’d make a £7,000 call to the lawyer with an idea, and every afternoon I’d get a £7,000 reply saying the name was already in use in New Zealand or France or Ukraine.
The title of the new show cannot have the word ‘gear’ in it because the BBC say it is too similar to Top Gear – which unfortunately put paid to another of Clarkson’s ideas – Gear Knobs.
She [the lawyer] said the trademark was available, but it would be an unwise idea, owing to the laws surrounding intellectual property.
The BBC not only owns the rights to ‘The Stig’ and the ‘Star in a Reasonably Priced Car’ and the ‘Cool Wall’ but also any name that is remotely similar to Top Gear.
According to Clarkson ‘arguing with a lawyer costs more money than we had’ so he was again forced to go back to the drawing board.
Just call it ‘The Jeremy Clarkson Show’ and be done with it. It really doesn’t matter what it’s called – everyones’s going to watch it over the new Top Gear…

Last night I went to the Music Room in San Bernardino to see my buddy’s band, Slanderus, play a set. They were billed with two other bands, one of which was Ana Kefr. All the bands were “screamer” bands, meaning it’s aggressive metal music with, well, screaming vocalists.
It usually isn’t quite my cup of tea (I’m a child of the ‘80s; I like anything from Metallica to Lionel Richie to alternative to classical , but the screamers are a bit new for my taste) but Ana Kefr is quite simply an amazing band. I mean it. They were amazing.
The music was more “musical” to me than many of the new bands. Like, really musical. I could clearly hear the classical influence, even though it was metal music. They played for one hour, and never once stopped. That alone is impressive considering the intensity of their music. They incorporated different genres in their act, too, such as ska, a horn solo, keyboards and of course, brutal metal.
Just when I thought I had heard it all, Ana Kefr comes along. Never before have I seen or listened to anything remotely similar. Mark my words, folks, Ana Kefr is going all the way. You may not know their name now, but you will. It was hands down the most impressive five-dollar show I have ever attended.
You can find 'em here: http://www.facebook.com/#!/anakefr
If you like new metal or progressive rock at all, you’ll wanna give these guys a try. Trust me.

Lucknow: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Friday welcomed Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s surprise announcement to withdraw the three contentious farm laws calling it a historic decision.
“I thank PM and welcome this step taken by him. It is a historic day,” Adityanath said in a statement.
He said though a large section of people believed that such laws can play an essential role to increase the income of farmers, farmer organisations opposed it.
“Government’s attempt to establish a dialogue at all levels did not yield any result hence it was withdrawn,” he added.
CM said in the democracy we cannot force anything and have to hear the voices of the people.
PM had already said that a committee will be formed on the MSP demand made by the farmers, he further added.

The doors are set to open at Messeplatz in Basel, Switzerland this week, for the 46th edition of the Art Basel art fair, the massive fair exhibition that has come to define the early summer months in Europe. Bringing the massively international scope of the world’s elite galleries, this year’s Art Basel promises another strong outing.
Zander Blom at Galerie Hans Mayer
As expected, the world’s top galleries will return to the sprawling floor plans of the exhibition center for another dizzyingly large exhibition, bringing world-class collections of work with them. Skarstedt will be presenting a series of works from Mike Kelley, Martin Kippenberger and Richard Prince, among others, while Team Gallery will bring a selection of works by Cory Arcangel, Alex Bag, Andrew Gbur, Ryan McGinley, and Tabor Robak. Gagosian will also present a strong group booth, featuring works by John Currin, Richard Prince and Georg Baselitz. At Metro Pictures, works by Nina Beier, Olaf Breuning, and a score of other artists should also prove a strong booth.

The fair’s Parcours section will continue its exploration of the capital’s urban landscapes, bringing works by Nate Lowman, Alicja Kwade and Jonathan Monk to contend with the history and architecture of Basel itself. Also popular is Basel’s massive Unlimited section, where a number of large-scale projects, installations and sculptural works will take over one of the Messe Basel’s massive exhibition halls. Early highlights include an installation of Robert Irwin’s Black, a series of overlapping scrims focusing pale grey squares into a zone of absolute blackness. In a more audience-focused installation, David Shrigley is presenting Life Model, a figure drawing class in which visitors are welcome to draw a bizarrely proportioned animatronic figure.
Teresa Burga at Galerie Barbara Thumm
The fair will also feature a new performance installation by Rikrit Tiravanija, architects Nikolaus Hirsch and Michel Müller, and chef Antto Melasniemi, titled DO WE DREAM UNDER THE SAME SKY, a site-based work where visitors are invited to enjoy a meal prepared in the space, with compensation determined by labor within the site, or contributions to the functioning of the work (washing dishes, etc.).
Art Basel ‘s satellite fair, Liste, also returns this year, bringing a group of smaller galleries and project spaces to offer a more grounded counterpoint to Art Basel’s blue-chip firepower. This year, 47 Canal will take part, bringing a series of new works by Stewart Uoo and Anicka Yi. Clearing Gallery will also be on site, presenting new works by Calvin Marcus.
Anicka Yi, Best Friend’s Arm (2015), via 47 Canal
Other exhibitions will also be taking place throughout the city, with particular attention paid to Fondation Beyeler, where a major Paul Gauguin exhibition is underway, prominently featuring the work When Will You Marry? now the world’s most expensive work of art following its reported $300 million sale. The touring Marlene Dumas retrospective, which has commanded attention and critical praise in Europe these past months, is also on view currently at the Fondation.
The events kick off this week, with the fair opening its doors on June 18th.

2020 Crazy Quilt Block Challenge – Block One
Like many quilters I made a millennium quilt at the turn of the new century. It started with a June 14, 1999 meeting of 20 Yakima School District’s teachers and paraeducators who also quilt. Each member brought 20 zip lock baggies each containing 50 – two and a half-inch squares. These were exchanged so members came away with 1000 – two and a half-inch squares.
I added 1000 additional fabrics to make 2000 different fabrics. My mom gave me large scraps from her fabric stash so I would have the additional fabrics to equal 2000. In addition, I had found three millennium themed print fabrics, two were lights and one a dark. This is a page from my Quilt Journal.
This past June, Sharon Boggon of Pintangle.com issued a 2020 Crazy Block Challenge. The idea is to make a crazy quilt using 2020 different items by the end of the year 2020. You can find the guidelines to the 2020 Crazy Quilt Challenge by clicking here.
I decided to go with a 6 ½” (unfinished) square since I’m already working on a hexagon crazy quilt, the one I started as a part of Kathy Shaw’s Intermediate Crazy Quilt Course 103. This will be the first time I will be making a crazy quilt of this size. I estimated it will take be 60” x 60”, which is 100 six-inch blocks embellished with 20 unique items. I plan to count fabrics, threads, and embellishments such as beads, buttons, charms, lace and ribbons. I will also count different embroidery techniques and seam combinations.
Here is my first block for the 2020 Crazy Quilt Challenge:
I used a modified version of Kathy Shaw’s Mix n’ Match Crazy Blocks, 6”, purchased from Ms. Shaw’s Etsy site. I can’t show it because of copy write laws, but if you have her first book, Crazy Quilting – Volume 1, Beyond Basics, page 79. I eliminated a couple of the seams to make the fabric pieces a little larger. I wanted more space for embroidery motifs.
Here is the block unembellished:
The upper right-hand corner features an applique bird in a silk ribbon rose-bush. This pattern came from one of the assignments in Kathy Shaw’s Intermediate Crazy Quilt Course 105 – Silk Ribbon Embroidery.
The upper left corner is embellished with ecru lace and a seam treatment of embroidered flowers formed with straight stitches and Bullion Knots flowers. Below the lace a row of Chevron Stitches are worked with small 6 mm blue glass heart and seed beads. A metal bee charm is sewn above the Bullion Knot Flowers.
Lower left-hand corner features an embroidered dragonfly flying over a stand of cattail. The dragonfly was a part of an embroidered interior decorator fabric. I added 1/4th inch organdy ribbon stitched over the wings, to add dimension. I also beaded the body with glass pearls and rice pearls.
Another embroidered interior decorator fabric was pieced into the center of the block. Using the embroidered vining leaf, and an additional vine for the second flower, which I embroidered. Then I added a Mother of Pearl flower and glass leaf bead to each vine.
Above the center piece, this area is embellished with a lace flower, which I over stitched with Thread Gatherer’s Silk n Pearl #10, color: Easter Parade. An antique glass pearl button is stitched in the flower’s center. A Cloisonné Butterfly Bead is sewn to the left of the lace flower.
The lower right corner is embellished with a 1/4th inch wide vintage Jacquard woven ribbon. Seam treatments are straight Stitches with Detached Chain Stitches and seed beads above and below are Straight Stitches with seed beads. Three small antique glass buttons are sewn below the woven ribbon.
Here is my accounting system. I used the record keeping ideas from both Sharon Boggon and Rosemary Dempster (Thank you ladies), in developing the forms I plan to use.
I am keeping track of fabric and embellishments used in a three-ring binder with plastic sleeves.
Until next time,

On "Face the Nation," McConnell explained that the "Senate is a very different institution" than the House of Representatives and that the majority cannot force bills past the minority.
McConnell indicated that he thinks it is time for President Obama to get involved. "The president indicated that he wanted this to be a bipartisan proposal," the senator said. "I must say I am surely say that I am proud that he is embarrassed by the product that came out of the house."
The leader told Bob Schieffer, "I think we need to exercise some discipline here and I think it may be time for the President to get a hold of these Democrats in the Senate and House who have rather significant majorities and shake them a little bit and say look, let's do this the right way."
Mr. McConnell stressed that any bill he would support must be "timely, temporary and targeted." He stressed that the Republican agenda would focus on the housing crisis and providing tax rebates to middle and low income Americans.
He used examples to stress how expensive this stimulus package is saying, "if you started the day Jesus Christ was born and you spent a million dollars every day since then you still would not have spent a trillion dollars." He added that, "it is more than we have spent on all the wars since 9/11."
Finally, the leader said he thinks a reasonable agreement can be met and that a stimulus package in one form or another will pass and be implemented. Asked about the threat of a filibuster, Mr. McConnell said a super majority is needed but that the bill will be not purposely be held up."

Baking soda and bicarbonate of soda are the same in Australia. Baking powder is not the same as bicarbonate of soda although powders are leavening agents. When included in a cake mixes and batter then beaten, the leavening agent causes air bubbles to expand when cooked will ‘rise’. Bicarbonate of soda is a pure leavening agent that needs moisture and an acidic ingredient for the chemical reaction to take place to make food rise. Bicarbonate is often used in recipes where there is already an acidic ingredient such as lemon juice, chocolate, buttermilk or honey.
Baking powder contains bicarbonate of soda plus the acidic ingredient called cream of tartar. It has a neutral taste compared to bicarbonate of soda which has a tangy taste. Baking powder is often used in recipes that have other neutral tasting ingredients, such as milk.
Bicarbonate of soda makes a very specific texture not achievable with baking powder. It is very important to sift bicarbonate of soda well as it gets lumpy and to use very exact measures.

Invasive cervical cancer is rare during a pregnancy, even though it is one of the most frequently diagnosed neoplasias during that time. It is noted that around 30% of women diagnosed with cervical cancer are of reproductive age. This means that up to 3% of cases of cervi- cal cancer are found in pregnant women or those who are in the post-birth period. A cervicovaginal Pap smear is performed as part of the regular checkup for a pregnant woman during the first visit so that cervical cancer can easily be diagnosed early in these women, detecting it early in up to 70–80% of cases. We present here the case of a patient with initial diagnosis of cervical cancer made around 20th week of pregnancy. It was then treated by a simple trachelectomy and cerclage during week 24. The pregnant woman gave birth to a healthy baby at the end of her pregnancy. Definitive treatment was completed three months after giving birth with a total hysterectomy and laparoscopic bilateral salpingectomy while preserving both ovaries. After 17 months of monitoring the patient showed no signs of reoccurrence. In con- clusion, during the early stage of cervical cancer conservative management may be a reasonable option to preserve the current pregnancy.
Keywords: cancer of the cervix, pregnancy, early stage, management
Cancer of the cervix has a global incidence of 500,000 cases per year. Geographical differences are very important, with the incidence rates being especially high in developing countries. Cervical cancer may be considered to have shown a decline in incidence since the 60s, and is currently stable . Invasive cervical cancer is not very frequent during pregnancy, however, it is the most frequently diagnosed cancer along with breast and ovarian tumours during gestation . The incidence of this tumour in women between the ages of 20–49 years is 1.5–14.9/100,000 [3–4], this means that up to 3% of patients are diagnosed during pregnancy [2–5].
In the majority of pregnancy control protocols, a cervical Pap smear is done during the first three months allowing early diagnosis of cervical cancer in women who have not previously been included in a cancer screening programme, therefore up to 70–80% of patients are diagnosed during the early stages [6–8]. It should be noted that in 70–80% of the cases, the tumour histology corresponds to cervi- cal squamous cell carcinoma . Pregnancy does not appear to accelerate the natural history of the tumour or increase the incidence of metastatic disease, although thanks to early diagnosis, the survival rate of patients diagnosed during pregnancy seems somewhat higher than in women who are not pregnant. On the contrary or when there is a late diagnosis, there does seem to be a worse prognosis, partly because of therapeutic limits in these specific cases [10–11].
We present a case of cervical cancer diagnosed during pregnancy in which it was decided to perform a simple trachelectomy and cerclage to preserve the pregnancy.
We present here the case of a 37-year-old primigravida who went to high-risk obstetrics consultations at our centre because of having a high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (SIL) in an opportune cytology screening during the first three months of her pregnancy. There was no medical history of interest.
A colposcopy was carried out, which showed a 5 mm area with major changes and a biopsy was taken where an invasive epidermoid car- cinoma was diagnosed with presence of HPV 16 in week 20 of her pregnancy (Figure 1).
Figure 1. Colposcopic image of the cervical lesion.
Case Report A further study was done by an MRI and a chest x-ray where no evidence was found of distant metastatic disease, nor an affected parame- trium. It was found to be compatible with FIGO stage IA1. The Perinatal Medicine Committee and the Oncological Gynaecology Committee jointly decided to perform a simple trachelectomy and cervical cerclage in week 24 of gestation.
The pathological results of the trachelectomy showed micro-infiltrating cervical carcinoma (with 5.5 mm maximum extension on the surface and 1.1 infiltration), with extensive cervical high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HG-SIL), which reach the endocervical glands and is in wide contact with the endocervical margin. There is no evidence of invasion of the lymphovascular space. With this result, it was decided to let the gestation evolve with the appropriate three monthly controls until full term of the pregnancy and allowing a natural vaginal childbirth.
In week 37 of pregnancy the patient began to experience regular uterine contractions, and it was decided to remove the cervical cerclage.
After removing the cerclage, the patient went into labour but a caesarean section was finally carried out because of the risk of loss of foetal well-being. A healthy 3030 g girl was born with an umbilical artery of pH 7.19 and Apgar test of 9/9
After giving birth, a new MRI was performed on the patient which was normal. Following three months after birth, the treatment was com- pleted with a total hysterectomy and bilateral laparoscopic salpingectomy while preserving both ovaries with no evidence of remains of disease in the pathological anatomy. The woman was disease-free after 17 months of monitoring.
Although each specific case should be discussed and agreed upon with the patient in an individual way, generally treatment which pre- serves fertility is an option to consider in pregnant women patients with an initial cervical cancer diagnosis during pregnancy.
An important factor to consider is the gestational period when diagnosing. In general in pregnancies of less than 16–20 weeks consider- ation should be given to terminating the pregnancy and initiating early cervical cancer treatment, although if the patient wishes to go ahead with the pregnancy, it should be allowed. In those patients where diagnosis occurs later than this gestational period, it appears to be safe to delay treatment until the foetus reaches maturity, and then after giving birth to carry out the definitive treatment without this having a detrimental effect on the patient’s prognosis [12–13].
Patients with stage FIGO IA1–IB1 squamous neck cancer with less than 2 cm tumours and with no lymphovascular invasion may be con- servative treatment candidates during gestation with wide conisation or simple trachelectomy, completing the treatment 6–8 weeks after having given birth [6–14].
Some authors consider conisation as a way of ruling out microinvasive disease or for the diagnosis of invasive carcinoma, following which a treatment being necessary after childbirth . In our clinical case the indication of a trachelectomy was intended to establish the final stage and allow the pregnancy to continue with a low cancer risk.
During pregnancy a simple trachelectomy is not exempt of maternal-–foetal complications. It is performed during the second three months of pregnancy preferably and only in patients with strong colposcopic or cytologic evidence of incipient invasive cervical cancer. When the conisation is practised during the first three months, abortion occurs in 33% of cases. Diagnosis in our case was in week 20, and the surgi- cal treatment was given after waiting for a month.
In cases where a conservative treatment is decided during pregnancy, the delivery could be by the vaginal route; caesarean section is reserved for cases in which the tumour stage is greater than IA2, in which case a radical hysterectomy and bilateral pelvic lymphadenec- tomy could be done during the same surgical treatment. The birth route does not seem to affect the course or spread of the tumour disease, although there is a tendency to avoid the vaginal route in all large tumour cases (greater than 2–4 cms) or in cases in which moderate cervical bleeding is foreseen .
It should also be taken into consideration that the treatment options involve an important ethical, emotional, and social development dilemma for the binomial foetus–patient and the medical team. That is why decisions have to be taken by a multidisciplinary team of obste- tricians, neonatologists, gynaecologists oncologists, medical oncologists, and pathologists not only in such cases but also in the rest of
Case Report fertility treatment preservations cases similar to our case. One should always take into account what the patient wants and keeping her opinion central to taking decisions [11–16].
In conclusion, the therapeutic management will basically depend on the stage of pregnancy when diagnosing the disease, the FIGO stage, the size of the lesion, whether the patient wants to continue with the pregnancy, and also what future reproductive ability is desired by the patient. Treatment with simple trachelectomy and cerclage in week 24 of gestation seems a reasonably safe option to achieve a full term pregnancy in stage IA1 cervical cancer cases during pregnancy.

The contemporary-chic Viceroy has a retro Chicago façade and mid-century furnishings within. Textures and patterns grab the eye, including an abstract headboard wall, carpet that looks like a sand-hued topographic map, and—yes—quotes from Marcel Proust, reproduced on the lobby's 30-foot-wall. The ground level restaurant Somerset, from chef Lee Wolen, is a serious asset for the Viceroy; his creative American fare (don't miss the beet tartare and sausage-stuffed whole roasted chicken) matches the vaguely nautical, club-like setting. But don't skip the 18th floor, where he also does cocktails and bites at the swanky rooftop lounge Devereaux.

This legendary hotel on Manhattan's Upper East Side has a highly developed sense of noblesse oblige. The Carlyle opened inauspiciously in 1930, the year after the Wall Street Crash, and its lobby retains the original black-and-white tiled floor designed by Dorothy Draper. The lift operator knows each guest's name and room number, handy should you return late and a little squiffy. And each room has a proper key: no troublesome cards or spooky 'iris recognition' here. The bedrooms themselves are generously sized - at least for New York - while the tower suites are positively vast and very beautiful, with pale beechwood parquet floors, Chinese cabinets, onyx lamps and silk-cushioned fauteuils, as well as heart-stopping views of Central Park. Refreshment is never far away: tea is served in the Ottoman-styled Gallery, cocktails in the Bemelmans Bar (the bar of the Upper East Side) and lunch or dinner in the Carlyle Restaurant, which is decorous without being sedate. And music is inherent at the Carlyle, whose first tenant was composer Richard Rodgers. In its public rooms and suites there are 14 baby grand pianos, and Woody Allen still plays jazz clarinet every Monday night, six months of the year, at the ground-floor Café Carlyle. But in the end, the Carlyle's brilliance lies in its understatement. The fire instructions say, 'Remain relaxed'. Here, at what is still New York's grandest hotel, it's hard to do anything else.
Le Germain Hôtel is housed in a century-old building in the Old Port area of Québec. The hoteliers have made every effort to preserve the original architecture, blending it with restorations to create a delightful mix of classic and contemporary décor. This hotel is ideally located for many of the best restaurants in the city and day trips into the Petit Champlain.
The recipient of numerous industry accolades, including Frommer's Exceptional and AAA Four Diamond awards, the No. 1 Best Hotel in New York City sits in the heart of lower Manhattan. Along with its desirable address, travelers also praise The Beekman's superb service, tasty cuisine and trendy vibe. Acclaimed American chefs Tom Colicchio and Keith McNally have outposts here, and guest rooms and suites boast modern features like custom leather headboards, aged oak floors, curated artwork and bathrooms with Carrara marble accents.

John Steinbeck certainly chose a beautiful spot to hole up while writing his famous piece on Positano for Harper’s Bazaar in 1953. Positano was just a quiet fishing village then and he described the Sirenuse as ‘an old family house converted into a first-class hotel, spotless and cool’. While still spotless and cool, the summer villa is a lot more upscale these days, immaculately run with huge charm and a maniacal eye for detail by Antonio Sersale and his wife Carla. The handsome ox-blood red building is crammed with precious antiques (starting with a rare 18th-century palanquin in the reception hall), many of them collected by Antonio’s late father Franco, and the white bedrooms have tiled floors from Vietri and balconies with grandstand views. But it’s the small details – the cloth-bound copies of Steinbeck’s article and the pretty beach baskets in the bedrooms, the crisp Frette linens and Eau d’Italie bath goodies – that kick things to another level. Positano is a bit of a madhouse nowadays, but you can avoid it altogether, dreaming away the hours on the pool terrace, booking a massage at the Gae Aulenti-designed Aveda spa or hopping on the hotel’s boat for a spin. In the evening, guests gather in the Champagne & Oyster bar before moving on to La Sponda restaurant to tuck into tonnarelli pasta with lobster and saddle of lamb with artichokes to the sound of guitar and mandolin duo Franco and Andrea.

Even the most unaffected New Yorkers can’t help but feel a tinge of nostalgia when passing through the gilded revolving doors of the St Regis to be promptly greeted by a gentleman with white gloves and a smile. The sense of the city’s golden era lingers in that lobby, where shining chandeliers warm the pale walls to create a necessary calming counter to the crush of cabs and suits in Midtown Manhattan. It’s precisely the atmosphere John Jacob Astor IV sought to capture when he opened this 18-storey, Beaux-Arts landmark at the turn of last century. Today, there’s more Michael Kors than mink in the King Cole Bar, though the order hasn’t changed: ignore the lengthy cocktail list and go for a note-perfect dry Martini or a Bloody Mary, the house speciality, and fall into conversation with the bankers in from Boston sitting at the bar. For those who do stay on for a Martini or three more, it’s nice to know that your suite is just an elevator ride away. It may be done up in lipstick-ruby wallpaper or blue velvet curtains and striped white walls, with classic pieces such as silk-stitched loveseats and oil paintings to resemble that glamorous pied à terre everyone fantasises about. A New York institution that channels the city’s glamorous past like no other, steps from the Fifth Avenue buzz. By Erin Florio

DH Lawrence penned a love letter about it, Mussolini held court during the war, Churchill was moved to get out his watercolours and his memory lives on in the ancient resident cat of the same name that slinks around picking up titbits of the Michelin-starred food. This peachy-pink palazzo on the still waters of Lake Garda has been stealing hearts since the 1890s, and at the turn of the millennium, it was opened as a hotel, the loveliest in all of Italy. But what makes it so special are all the non-hotel bits: the exquisite antiques everywhere, the silver photo frames filled with black-and-white family shots, the engraved tumblers of fresh roses, the deep bath tubs, and the circus-striped umbrellas by the charcoal-grey slick of swimming pool. Helicopters land on the pristinely manicured croquet lawn and return guests arrive to a fanfare of hugs and kisses, pats on backs. They come here to feast like kings at night on plates of tortellini carbonara, spend the day lolling fatly by the pool watching the ducks and the windsurfers pootle past, and sleep outrageously well under frescoed ceilings in beds made up with crisp, scallop-edged Frette linen. Steep mountains provide a dramatic backdrop for the garden, and early mornings are particularly magic, the silvery pale ethereal light drifting across the lake. The feel of the place is old-school, spick and span, timeless, a bit matronly – and for anyone who likes a bit of Great Gatsby-style cosseting, it’s a dreamy retreat. By Issy von Simson

Australian captain and Chelsea striker Sam Kerr has become the first woman to grace the cover of an international version of the upcoming FIFA video game. Electronic Arts (EA) has been releasing a new FIFA game each year since 1993 with celebrated footballers on the disc cover. Before Kerr’s face on FIFA 23 cover, only men dominated this department, with Wayne Rooney, Ronaldinho, and Lionel Messi appearing most of the time. Even though some women footballers have been featured in the regional versions, this will be the first time for an international edition.
EA Sports Reveals FIFA 23 Cover
EA Sports took to Twitter to announce that its next game’s cover will feature a woman footballer alongside Kylian Mbappe. The PSG and France Forward has been featured solo on the FIFA cover for 2 consecutive years. However, now the Frenchman has to share the limelight with Kerr.
Previously, Alex Morgan from the US and Christine Sinclair from Canada have been featured alongside Lionel Messi on the cover of FIFA 16’s North American edition.
Sam Kerr’s Accolades
Sam Kerr had an exceptional 2021/2022 campaign to back up her appearance on FIFA 23 cover. The Australian started her career on the international stage at the age of 15 with Perth Glory FC. She joined Chelsea in the 2019/2020 season and assisted 2 goals in her debut match against Redding. She also captained Australia in the 2019 World Cup and scored 5 goals in the tournament. She is also the first Australian player (male or female) to score a hattrick in a World Cup match.
Kerr finished the Premier League season as Chelsea’s top scorer with 32 goals in 34 matches. Sam Kerr received many prestigious accolades for her threatening presence in front of the goal. She has won the WSL Player of the Season Award, Goal of the Season Award, PFA Player and Players’ Player of the Year, FWA Player of the Year, and Player of the Year at the London Football Awards. Chelsea also named her the Player of the Season after the recent campaign.
The End of An Era
This FIFA 23 cover might be historical, but it is the last one gamers will ever see. One of the most successful football game series is coming to an end after its next instalment, releasing in Fall 2022. EA Sports and FIFA ended their decades-old partnership after the breakdown of a business deal. The video game publisher reportedly made a “significant” offer to FIFA for having exclusivity over all of its gaming and e-football rights for 8 years. However, the football governing body refused to lock itself with only 1 publisher.

Organizers of Squamish Constellation Festival (July 22-24, 2022) have announced multi-Grammy and Juno Award-winner Sarah McLachlan will be headlining the event’s return after the festival had to take a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic.
Constellation Festival 2022 with Sarah McLachlan
“The live music industry has suffered greatly over the past two years, and for a festival still in its infancy like Squamish Constellation Fest, the impact has been profound,” said Sarah McLachlan, who will be performing in the last slot of the weekend on Sunday, July 24. “We all need opportunities to gather and celebrate and this festival embodies what we’ve been missing: community, love, and togetherness – I am so excited to be a part of it.”
Festival organizers are equally pleased with the pairing and are taking this opportunity to launch its first Kickstarter campaign (live as of Thursday, December 16th at 12:00pm) with rewards that include a select number of cocktail hour meet and greets with McLachlan, autographed memorabilia, weekend passes and more.
“We really could not be more ecstatic,” said Tamara Stanners, partner and co-founder of the festival. “We already have so much love for Sarah that when she agreed we were over the moon. It’s made rebounding from a couple of really tough years so much easier.”
The three-day music and art festival in the heart of the Sea to Sky Corridor had an incredibly successful launch in 2019, with artists including Bahamas, Jessie Reyez, Serena Ryder, Halfmoon Run, and A Tribe Called Red. Plans to announce a full line-up in March of 2020 were stymied when COVID-19 quickly brought the live music scene to a grinding halt. “That definitely hurt us,” added Stanners. “When you are getting a new festival off the ground you expect a few years of uphill efforts before you can stand on firm ground financially. We had a lot of incredible momentum and positivity after our inaugural festival that we hoped to build on despite the immense challenges the pandemic presented.”
The full artist lineup is expected to be released in March, 2022. Organizers assure that if you had a ticket for the 2020 festival which was cancelled, your ticket will be honoured in 2022.
In the meantime, they are hosting smaller, intimate shows through the Little Dipper Concert Series. The next one of those is January 22, 2022 with Said the Whale at the Brackendale Art Gallery. Follow the festival on Instagram and Facebook for all the latest news and updates.


Review: The Twentieth Century Way
The Sappy Critic - By Kirk Sheppard
Sometimes I go to the theatre with the intention of sitting back and being entertained. Sometimes I don’t want to have to think too much and sometimes I just want to laugh a lot. Well, I laughed a few times during The KNOW Theatre’s brilliant production of THE TWENTIETH CENTURY WAY, but I certainly didn’t get to sit back during this frenetic 90 minutes of intensity.
I’m not even sure how to describe the show to you. The description I’d read doesn’t really tell the full story of what this play is. And I absolutely will not spoil it for you. But suffice it to say, what I thought I was going to see – a show about two out of work actors hired to trap gay men into arrests in the 1920s – is way understating it.
The friend who went with me – who is himself a brilliant actor – helped me understand the show in a different context. He said it was a show about acting. He’s right . . . but upon further reflection, I think that it is a show about truth. Raw, naked, intense, real, authentic truth and how that truth is experienced on stage and off by actors.
Jens Rasmussen and Michael McKeogh were absolutely perfect in their portrayals of multiple characters. There were jarring transitions but not once was I lost, thanks to the deft directoral hand of Kimberly Faith Hickman and the marvelous performances. These are brave actors, to be sure, and talented ones. I will be lining up to see them perform again.
The KNOW has another knock out hit with this show. If they can continue to produce MainStage masterpieces like PLUTO and THE TWENTIETH CENTURY WAY under the artistic leadership of Andrew Hungerford then they are going to be a force to be reckoned with. You should see this show – but don’t come unless you’re willing to work for it. It does pay off and in spades.

Restriction of travels due to the global covid crisis has led to trials and discovery of homemade burnt basque cheesecake, caramel almonds & salted pretzels and this tofu rare cheesecake. Missing this version of cheesecake so much i had to try making it!
This version is simple, no base needed, no baking needed. The idea is really to dig in with a spoon and eat it like ice cream! Let’s get to the ingredients…
- If you have a blender, simply add everything and blend away till smooth & silky.
- If not, having a masher, spatula and mixer works too
Having it plain was great and there was a slight tofu fragrance. For those who prefer to mask the tofu taste, addition of berry or any fruity jam will do the job.
The frozen version was nice too, slightly lighter than the already light cake and best for a hot sunny day! If anyone tries this please leave comments on how to improve the recipe, any suggestions are welcome!
One thought on “Tofu rare cheesecake”

In its most recent round of grants, In June, SCHIP made one of its largest single grants to date, assisting the Burlington Emergency Shelter to replace its furnace with a grant of $5,000. The shelter has played an important part in the quality of life in our towns, by providing emergency housing for a significant number of people who come from the towns we serve, said SCHIP Co-convenor Pat Nestork of Charlotte. The local Interfaith Projects (SCHIP) is a cooperative endeavor of ten faith communities: Charlotte Congregational, Shelburne United Methodist, Trinity Episcopal, St. Catherine of Siena, St. Judes, Our Lady of Mount Carmel, Hinesburg United, Ascension Lutheran, All Souls Interfaith Gathering, and the Vermont Zen Center. SCHIP was founded in 2003 with the goal of raising funds to improve the quality of life for residents of the towns of Shelburne, Charlotte and Hinesburg. In 2004, SCHIP opened SCHIPs Treasure Resale Shop to sell good, used, donated clothing and household items to raise money to make grants for projects that benefit the people of the communities. SCHIP also serves its mission by selling clothing and household goods at low cost or no cost to people in need, typically on the advice of pastors of the member faith communities or managers of local food shelves. The Resale Shop also provides gift certificates for distribution by pastors to help needy individuals, resettled refugees and disaster survivors. Surplus clothing or household goods are donated to the Salvation Army, Goodwill Industries, Recycle North and Sweet Charity. SCHIP depends on donations of good quality used clothing and household goods to raise money to make grants, and the public is encouraged to continue their generous donations. Volunteers are also vital to the success of the shop, helping the staff to process and sell donations. Anyone with some time to volunteer can call Janet Morrison, the manager of the resale shop, at 985-3595. You can help SCHIP: Donations of volunteer time as well as donations of good quality used clothing and household goods have been key to the success of SCHIPs Treasure Resale Shop in Shelburne. The shop, a project of Shelburne Charlotte Hinesburg Interfaith Projects, in its four years of operation, has raised enough money to make grants of more than $110,000 to projects that benefit the people of Shelburne Charlotte and Hinesburg. This has only been possible with the support of the communities in bringing in their donations and in helping in the shop as volunteers. Currently Shop Manager Janet Morrison is seeking more volunteers to handle the many tasks, large and small, that have made the resale shop such a success. Volunteers can help with intake of the donations, sorting and preparing them for display in the shop, helping customers and keeping the shop neat, clean and inviting. Schedules are very flexible and Janet is eager to talk to anyone who could volunteer a few hours a month or more. Call her at the shop, 802-985-3595, to set up a time to talk.

improved gas engines are lowered quantities of NOx discharge
gas, which will entirely get rid of the need for
outside NOx exhausts look after. Presently, NOx
discharges manage is a significant cost problem for diesel
engines that use expensive catches to please the

SCREAMLITE RECORDS LTD REVIEW FORM
Band Name: The Idyllists
CD Title: Les Singles
Press Pack Included: No
Review: This EP is available for free download via Myspace.
The Idyllists seem to have forged out a very British indie sound from their American location. With guitars like that of The Coral and vocals like that of The Lightning Seeds, The Idyllists are something very special indeed. There are hints of country in “Crowded Room,” which show how this band are happy to tread slightly off the beaten track while still maintaining their principle ideas. Blues, indie, country and rock all mingle in the beautifully constructed pieces of indie pop rock that The Idyllists specialise in. All tracks are beautifully mixed with the vocals slightly distorted to give another layer of sound in the overall mix.
All in all, this EP is a truly spectacular effort by a band that should rightfully be a British band!

Rhyl RNLI volunteers repeat Welsh Covid-19 instructions following weekend calls.
The crews of both of Rhyl's lifeboats were in action both days of the weekend of 30-31 May. During the daytime, both the inshore lifeboat and the station Landrover were utilised to warn people on the beaches of Kinmel Bay and Rhyl about the incoming tide.
At 10.40 pm the same day, both lifeboats were launched to a police incident at Pensarn beach, to provide safety cover at sea whilst the incident unfolded. At 11.45 pm the incident was resolved, and the boats stood down, returning to station at 00.35 am on Sunday morning.
At 2.00 pm on the Sunday, the inshore lifeboat and Landrover were again used to warn people on the beaches of Rhyl and Kinmel bay about the incoming tide. Again, about 30 people were informed, and the crews returned to station at 3.00 pm.
Chris Cousens, Water Safety Lead for the RNLI in Wales said: “We urge the Welsh public to remember the following safety advice: Stay in familiar surroundings and follow the Welsh Government advice. Do not put yourself, your family and emergency services at risk by taking risks or assuming it ‘won’t happen to you’. If you do see someone at risk call 999 and ask for the Coastguard.”
A high proportion of calls for the RNLI in Wales are to those who have been to people cut off by the tide, including during the lockdown period. Some parts of Wales have amongst the highest tidal range in Europe, and a beach that was clear yesterday at 2pm might be completely covered in sea at the same time today. Chris Cousens said: “If you are heading out for a coastal walk, make sure it is safe before you go. Always check the tide times and conditions before you set off and while out, be aware of your surroundings and keep an eye on the tide direction. Ask for local advice and look out for safety signs. Always carry a means of calling for help and know to call 999 and ask for the Coastguard if you or someone else is at risk.”
From Monday 1 June, the public who live within 5 miles of Rhyl beach will be able to visit our beautiful golden sands. Enjoy your time at the beach, but please be aware at the moment there are no lifeguard patrols, the tides can come in at speed. Always be aware of the tide coming in behind you, as you can get cut off on sand banks. Rhyl RNLI Lifeboat volunteers remain on call 24 hours a day. Always remember if you get into trouble, or see someone in trouble at the coast, dial 999 and ask for the Coastguard.
However, the changes to Government guidance does not mean our coasts are safe, the dangers that have always been there remain. We ask those who are local to beaches to continue to be aware of the inherent dangers. Our strong advice to the Welsh public, who are not local to a beach, is to follow the Welsh Government guidance to meet outdoors and exercise locally and not to travel to the coast. Air temperatures may be warming up but the sea temperature remains consistently chilly all year, jumping or falling into cold water or spending longer periods than normal submerged in the water can lead to, potentially fatal, cold water shock.”
Pictures show public being shepherded off the sandbanks in Kinmel Bay on Saturday, and the tracks of the lifeboats on both days.
Key facts about the RNLI
