Written and directed by Richard Linklater, Boyhood is the story of the life of a young boy as he comes of age from the first grade to the twelfth grade. Shot in the span of 12 years, the film is an exploration into the world of childhood and the world of a boy growing up with his mother and older sister as well as endure the sporadic appearances of his father. Starring Ethan Hawke, Patricia Arquette, Lorelei Linklater, and Ellar Coltrane. Boyhood is a tremendously transformative and exhilarating film from Richard Linklater.
The life of a child is a unique one where it is the years where children learn about the ways of life as well as the idea that the world isn’t perfect. Especially as it concern their own parents who aren’t perfect as they would struggle in raising their children to do well and prepare them for adulthood. The film is about these situations as it relates to a young boy named Mason (Ellar Coltrane) who would endure many changes in the entirety of his young life from being a child to becoming an 18-year old aspiring photographer. Especially as he would go through these changes with his mother Olivia (Patricia Arquette) and older sister Samantha (Lorelei Linklater) in the span of twelve years with sporadic appearances by his father Mason Sr. (Ethan Hawke). In the course of the story, Mason and his family would live in various places all over Texas as Olivia struggles to find stability in her life through marriages and other setbacks. Especially as the film’s story revolves around growing pains that Mason and Samantha would go through as well as having to move every few years and the visits from their father.
Richard Linklater’s screenplay doesn’t really play into any kind of traditional structure as it really plays more into Mason’s coming-of-age as a boy who would go through many things in the course of twelve years. Among them would be arriving into different schools, take part in the trends of the time, and all sorts of things that kids and teenagers would go through. Especially as the film’s second half showcases Mason as a teenager where he would face the pressure of fitting in and be part of something as there’s one notable scene where he lies about being with girls and such which is often very common with teenage boys. Yet, Linklater makes sure the story is very simple as it relates to Mason’s own growth as a person where many of his experiences would come into play as a man as well as learning about love and such. Even as he would get some advice from his own father, who does reveal why things with him and Mason’s mother didn’t work out, in the ways of love and all sorts of things.
Linklater’s direction is very evocative in the way that he presents the film where he manages to capture the growth of a child and his family in the span of 12 years without any kind of tricks, visual effects, or something that could’ve been told in a conventional fashion. Instead, Linklater would do something where he would capture a moment in time in these twelve different years to capture not just a sense of evolution in the growth that Mason and Samantha would endure but also in their surroundings in the state of Texas. Shooting on location in various locations of the state including cities like Houston, Austin, Dallas, San Antonio, and other small towns. The film maybe a Texan film but it has this otherworldly tone where it could’ve been set anywhere in America as it adds to Mason’s experience in his growth as a young man. While many of the compositions such as the close-ups, medium shots, and some unique camera angles are presented in a very simplistic manner, Linklater uses that approach in order to create something that feels real.
That approach to realism helps the film maintain something that feels natural in its development where the characters of Olivia and Mason Sr. don’t use makeup to age themselves but rather show it naturally as does the look of Mason and Samantha. Especially in the latter where Mason and Samantha would endure many different looks in the course of the year in order to showcase the tone of the times or what was trendy in that year. Linklater builds up the evolution of the story in a very slow yet methodical way rather than say it happens in this year or that year. Especially in the final years of Mason’s life as a high school kid as he becomes aware of entering adulthood where there is this mixture of excitement and dread. Overall, Linklater crafts a very mesmerizing yet extraordinary film about a boy’s life coming of age from childhood to adulthood.
Cinematographers Lee Daniel and Shane Kelly do excellent work with the film‘s cinematography as it‘s very colorful with its naturalistic approach to lighting in the many locations in Texas along with some of the interior lighting schemes at night including the Harry Potter book party for the sixth book. Editor Sandra Adair does brilliant work with in the editing where it‘s very straightforward with some bits of stylistic flairs along with some offbeat transitions to play into the film‘s unconventional structure. Production designers Rodney Becker and Gay Studebaker, with set decorator Melanie Ferguson, do fantastic work with the set design from the different look of the homes that Mason would live throughout his entire childhood.
Costume designer Kari Perkins does nice work with the costumes to play into the evolution of the clothes that the four principle characters would wear in the course of twelve years. Sound editor Tom Hammond does terrific work with the sound work to play into the way music sounds on some of the locations along with other moments that happen in the key parts of Mason‘s childhood. Music supervisors Meghan Currier and Randall Poster is amazing as it features an array of music that plays into the many years that Mason and Samantha would encounter from Coldplay, the Flaming Lips, Britney Spears, Paul McCartney, Phoenix, and all sorts of musical styles from hip-hop, country, pop, rock, indie, and folk as it is a highlight of the film.
The film’s incredible cast includes notable appearances from Charlie Sexton as Mason Sr.’s musician friend Jimmy, Libby Villari as Olivia’s mother, Jenni Tooley as Mason Sr.’s new wife Annie in the film’s second half with whom he would have a child with, Richard Andrew Jones and Karen Jones as Annie’s parents who would give Mason some gifts for his 15th birthday, Richard Robichaux as Mason’s boss in his teenager years, Barbara Chisholm as a friend of Olivia in Carol, Zoe Graham as Mason’s high school girlfriend Sheena, Brad Hawkins as Olivia’s third war-veteran husband Jim, Marco Peralla as Olivia’s second husband in a college professor Bill, Jamie Howard and Andrew Villarreal as Bill’s children, and Roland Ruiz as a laborer Olivia would meet and give advice to in the film’s second half.
Lorelei Linklater is brilliant as Samantha as Mason’s older sister who would endure not just her own growing pains but also venture into trends and such as she brings a lot of complexity into the role of an older sister. Patricia Arquette is amazing as Mason’s mother Olivia who does her best to raise her children while enduring financial and romantic woes as it’s a very engaging performance to display a mother trying to bring stability to her family. Ethan Hawke is fantastic as Mason’s father who is this exuberant yet cool man-child of sorts who is sort of irresponsible yet manages to become a mature parent who often displays a lot of wisdom for his children in the ways of the world. Finally, there’s Ellar Coltrane in a remarkable performance as Mason who would encounter many changes of his life as a young boy into a young man from all sorts of things that is very common with growing up while gaining an understanding of the ways of the world as it’s a truly astonishing performance for the actor.
Boyhood is an absolutely one-of-a-kind film from Richard Linklater that transcends the idea of what film could be. Armed with a great cast and a premise that is truly powerful, it’s a film that not only captures the experience of childhood into adulthood. It is also a film that allows an audience to possibly reflect about themselves in those years as it is really unlike anything in contemporary American cinema. In the end, Boyhood is a magnificent film from Richard Linklater.

USA: Patent granted to Kellogg for psyllium-enriched baked snacks
US cereals giant Kellogg Co has been awarded a US patent for its snack foods containing psyllium and the methods for producing them. Psylium is derived from seeds from plants of the Plantago genus and is a rich source of soluble and insoluble fibres. It has a proven cholesterol-lowering effect. Its use in food products is limited because it acquires a slimy mouthfeel upon hydration and also develops an undesirable flavour and colour in the presence of heat and moisture. Kellogg has addressed these problems in its invention, which it hopes will provide consumers with a new source of psyllium in a highly palatable form.

WHAT goes up, must come down – even if it takes a little effort. After successfully flying an airship into the stratosphere for the first time ever, Japanese researchers had to burst the helium-filled craft to get it back to the ground.
The National Aerospace Laboratory (NAL) in Tokyo said that after sending the 47-metre-long unmanned blimp to an altitude of 16.4 kilometres, the quickest way to get it back was to let the helium out.
The airship is a prototype for a new generation of blimps that could carry telecommunications equipment, Earth-monitoring sensors and spy cameras into positions high above Earth’s surface. The vehicles would be much cheaper to launch and operate than their satellite alternatives, and could be brought down for repair if equipment went wrong.
NAL has plans to build at least 20 much larger “stratosphere platforms” that will be 250 metres long. The blimps will operate non-stop for up to 10 years at an altitude of 20 kilometres, powered by solar energy that will be stored during the day in fuel cells for use at night.
To avoid interfering with commercial air traffic, the prototype blimp was launched from a port just outside Tokyo in the early hours of 4 August. It passed safely beyond the altitude of most commercial flights before reaching its record height, where on-board instruments measured the levels of greenhouse gases in the stratosphere and photographed land below.
After the 2-hour flight, the NAL ground crew used remote control to open a panel in the airship’s skin, allowing helium to escape and the blimp to fall. The airship’s envelope and instrument payload parachuted ...


* China remains the world’s most appealing investment destination despite the near-term headwinds from the COVID-19 pandemic.
* A total of 99 key foreign investment projects with a combined investment of 15.6 billion U.S. dollars were signed at the third Qingdao Multinationals Summit.
* The investment fields mainly involve high-end equipment, new energy and new materials, new-generation information technology, as well as modern finance, agriculture, and service.
JINAN, June 21 (Xinhua) — China remains the world’s most appealing investment destination despite the near-term headwinds from the COVID-19 pandemic, noted representatives from multinational corporate giants and industry insiders at the third Qingdao Multinationals Summit in the coastal city of Qingdao, east China’s Shandong Province.
Themed “Multinationals and China,” this year’s summit focused on topics including global industrial and supply chain reconstruction in the post-pandemic era, implementation of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership and promotion of institutional opening up, multinationals’ role in enhancing economic and social development, and the Yellow River Basin ecological protection and high-quality development.
More than 5,600 industry leaders, company delegates, ambassadors, scholars, and government officials participated in the summit online and offline.
A total of 99 key foreign investment projects with a combined investment of 15.6 billion U.S. dollars were signed at the three-day summit that opened on Sunday. The investment fields mainly involve high-end equipment, new energy and new materials, new-generation information technology, as well as modern finance, agriculture, and service.
Companies at the summit expressed their persistent confidence in the prospects of the Chinese market.
“We had a great performance in the first two quarters, especially in May,” noted Ai Zhouping, president of Heraues (China) Investment Co., Ltd. Ai noted that thanks to the effective control of the pandemic and the smooth work resumption progress, the logistics and related industries are recovering.
“Our gross sales and margin indicators in May met expectations, and were better than those from the same period last year,” Ai said, adding that with a total investment of about 200 million U.S. dollars, the company is making great progress on nearly 10 projects in China.
Nicolas Poirot, Air Liquide China President & CEO, said at the summit that over the past three decades, Air Liquide has made solid achievements in China, operating more than 120 plants in over 40 Chinese cities with around 5,000 employees across the country. Air Liquide is a multinational industrial gas supplier based in France.
“China is the world’s largest manufacturing country and will become the largest high-quality consumer market, and we have confidence in the Chinese market,” said Poirot.
J.P. Morgan is also a witness of the remarkable achievements of China’s fast development.
“We’ve participated in the development of China’s financial markets for a very long time, and witnessed the market growing and opening up. We believe the impact of the pandemic will be temporary, and the promising prospect of this market is still a key attraction to multinationals,” said Yu Bing, general manager of the Shanghai branch of JPMorgan Chase Bank (China) Company Limited.
AstraZeneca, a leading global pharmaceutical company, has been deeply devoted to the Chinese market for nearly 30 years. The Chinese government has, in recent years, unveiled and adopted a series of policies, demonstrating its commitment to creating a world-class business environment, promoting a higher level of opening up in the long term, and enhancing confidence for multinational enterprises to develop and step up investment in China, according to Leon Wang, executive vice president, international and China president of AstraZeneca.
Data from the Ministry of Commerce showed that foreign direct investment in the Chinese mainland, in actual use, expanded 22.6 percent year on year to 87.77 billion U.S. dollars in the first five months of the year. In the January-April period, China saw 185 newly-added major projects, each with a foreign investment of over 100 million U.S. dollars.
“Air Liquide will increase its investment and recruitment and enhance innovation in hydrogen, electronics, healthcare, sustainable agriculture, and other fields, deepen exchanges with Chinese partners, and contribute to the high-quality innovative development of China’s economy,” said Poirot.
The America Chamber of Commerce in China (AmCham China) said in a recently published white paper that AmCham China’s member companies stand committed to the Chinese market. About two-thirds of the companies surveyed listed China as the world’s top three investment destinations, the report said, adding that about 83 percent of the companies surveyed said that they did not consider moving production or procurement outside China.
During the Summit, AstraZeneca and the Qingdao municipal government signed a memorandum of understanding, announcing the establishment of AstraZeneca China’s regional headquarters in Qingdao.
“With complete industrial supporting facilities, a huge market potential, and high labor productivity, China’s core competitiveness in the global supply chain is still obvious,” noted Lin Meng with the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation.
According to Lin, the implementation of a series of reforms, opening up, transformation, and development policies and measures will give China further momentum in innovation and raising comprehensive efficiency of the supply chain.
This is the third time Dow, a global materials science leader with 125 years of history, participated in the summit. Jon Penrice, president of Dow Asia Pacific, joined the summit online this time.
China is one of Dow’s most important markets and currently the largest one outside of the United States, Penrice said. “We believe the Chinese market will continue to play a big role in our business.”

Smoothie King may soon be announced as the naming rights sponsor for the New Orleans Arena, according to our partners at WWL-TV, who cite sources.
The Pelicans have called a press conference for Thursday morning, and it’s believed a naming rights sponsor will be unveiled for the NBA team’s home arena.
Smoothie King was founded in Kenner in 1973 and now has more than 700 locations across the country and worldwide. In July, South Korean businessman Wan Kim purchased Smoothie King, which was operating out of Covington.
Kim considered moving it out of Louisiana; however, he decided to relocate to Metairie instead. It’s possible Smoothie King’s commitment to the New Orleans area will strengthen if the company does indeed end up with the arena’s naming rights.
Neither Smoothie King nor the Pelicans have commented on the report.

What does it mean to acknowledge one’s closeness to, enmeshment in or even kinship with the material world? And what does it mean to question family structures – the way they organise, coerce and make deviant certain lifeforms – and dwell in other possibilities of kin-making?
Not just a jolly rethinking of objects or a polyamorous romp through relationships, The Material Kinship Reader reckons with the extractavist histories of materials and the social relations that frame much of contemporary life.

Hillsborough Township recognizes October as Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Mayor Shawn Lipani read a proclamation at a Township Committee meeting on Sept. 27.
Breast Cancer Awareness Month is an annual campaign to increase awareness of this disease, encourage early detection, and support research to find a cure. While there is an increase in mammography rates and a decline in deaths, more work must be done, the proclamation states.
Breast cancer remains the second leading cause of cancer deaths among women, and both men and women should be aware that age, genetics, and family history are factors that can contribute to the risk of developing this disease.
Kathleen Cirioli, a three-time cancer survivor, and Joanne Liscovitz are co-founders of Dance for the Cure, a non-profit organization, that has helped local families impacted by breast cancer.
Dance for the Cure is committed to the prevention and cure of breast cancer through the celebration of dance, providing financial assistance to local women impacted by breast cancer with donations totaling over $850,000 since its founding in 1999, according to the proclamation.
In recognition, Hillsborough employees wore pink and joined with members of Dance for the Cure as they tied pink ribbons at the Municipal Complex to further promote Breast Cancer Awareness Month on Sept. 29.

President Tsai Ing-wen said Sept. 15 that the government will continue expanding exchanges and deepening friendship with ROC (Taiwan) allies Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua in Central America.
Taiwan has stepped up cooperation with all three countries since the outbreak of COVID-19, Tsai said. This includes sharing essential medical items, expertise and the latest information on pandemic management protocols, she added.
Wide-ranging bilateral collaboration has been strengthened rather than stopped by the pandemic, Tsai said, citing the June opening of a country office by Honduras-headquartered Central American Bank for Economic Integration in Taipei City.
Tsai made the remarks during a special video message for Central American Independence Day bicentennial celebrations in which she extended her congratulations on behalf of the government and people of Taiwan.
According to Tsai, great strides have been made in strengthening ties between Taiwan and the three countries spanning such areas as economic development, health care improvement and trade facilitation.
Highlights include an arrangement with Guatemala on mutual recognition of authorized economic operator certifications to streamline import and export operations, an agreement with Honduras to upgrade its hospital information technology system, and the Creative Economy Accompaniment Project in Nicaragua to spur broad-based economic development.
These partnerships extend to the education sector, Tsai said. Various student exchange programs continue apace despite the pandemic, enabling young people to establish interpersonal connections and learn more about their respective cultures, she added.
Tsai also took the opportunity to thank Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua for choosing to stand with Taiwan and support the country’s participation on the international stage. It is sincerely hoped robust relations will continue flourishing and delivering sustainable prosperity for the countries and people, she added.

Sony's plans for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2 are already being revealed with the focus set to be on the budding romance between Miles Morales and Gwen Stacy. The studio is just now releasing Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse in theaters. While the box office performance has yet to be determined, the reactions and reviews have been extremely high.
This response is why Sony is already moving to expand the Spider-Verse franchise with a sequel and spin-off, which are already in the works and will see the universe will grow very quickly. However, the focus of the main franchise will not stray too far from its lead character of Miles Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore). The first movie shows Miles' origin story as his Earth's Spider-Man, while trying to restore the multiverse. This allowed other Spider-People to interact with Miles as mentors and friends. The latter is where Gwen Stacy (voiced by Hailee Steinfeld) fits in, but that relationship will grow in the sequel.
Vanity Fair spoke to producer Amy Pascal about Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2 and she revealed some additional details on the movie. She confirmed the previously reported news that Joaquim Dos Santos will direct the sequel based on a script from David Callaham. The story will be focused on the romantic relationship between Miles Morales and Gwen Stacy, which is a thread from executive producer and co-writer Phil Lord's original script for the first movie.
While Gwen is largely associated with being one of Peter Parker's many love interests over the years, a romantic spark has been seen between Gwen and Miles recently in Marvel Comics. The recent Marvel NOW! series built up the romance between the two Spider-People from different Earths, with their affection on full display for the cover of Spider-Man #12.
If this thread is going to be pulled on and expanded in the Spider-Verse sequel, it should signal more dimension hopping for the heroes. Since Gwen was taken out of her reality and into Miles', it could be fun to see Miles be the one to visit a different Earth next time. Making the romance the focus of the sequel also will help differentiate it from the first film, as there's only a few very minor romantic subplots to the movie. Spider-Verse may be pleasing audiences of all ages, but the animated movie is still targeting a young demographic first and foremost. A teenage love story should be the right next step for the series and it guarantees Miles and Gwen should share the screen throughout Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse 2.

Background: [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose ( 18 FDG) uptake imaged with positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT) may serve as a biomarker of plaque inflammation. This study evaluated the relationship between carotid plaque 18 FDG uptake and a) intraplaque expression of macrophage and macrophage-like cellular CD68 immunohistology; b) intraplaque inflammatory burden using leukocyte-sensitive CD45 immunohistology; c) symptomatic patient presentation; d) time from last cerebrovascular event. Methods: 54 patients scheduled for carotid endarterectomy underwent 18 FDG PET/CT imaging. Maximum 18FDG uptake (SUV max ) and tissue-to-blood ratio (TBR max ) was measured for carotid plaques. Quantitative immunohistological analysis of macrophage-like cell expression (CD68) and leukocyte content (CD45) was performed. Results: 18 FDG uptake was related to CD68 macrophage expression (TBR max : r = 0.51, p < 0.001), and total-plaque leukocyte CD45 expression (TBR max : r = 0.632, p = 0.009, p < 0.001). 18 FDG TBR max uptake in carotid plaque associated with patient symptoms was greater than asymptomatic plaque (3.58 ± 1.01 vs. 3.13 ± 1.10, p = 0.008). 18 FDG uptake differed between an acuity threshold of <90 days and >90 days (SUV max :3.15 ± 0.87 vs. 2.52 ± 0.45, p = 0.015). Conclusions: In this CAIN cohort, 18 FDG uptake imaged with PET/CT serves a surrogate marker of intraplaque inflammatory macrophage, macrophage-like cell and leukocyte burden. 18FDG uptake is greater in plaque associated with patient symptoms and those with recent cerebrovascular events. Future studies are needed to relate 18 FDG uptake and disease progression.

Berlin: Walter de Gruyter, pp. 133-148.
This paper represents one element of a collaborative research project, funded by the AHRC, which focussed on a multidisciplinary study of the Earlier Neolithic cemetery of Vedrovice, Moravia, Czech Republic. One of the key aims of this project was the generation of new knowledge in relation to the emergence of the Linear Pottery, or Linearbandkeramik (LBK) culture in Europe. The current paper focuses on the evidence for the shift from hunting and gathering to farming from the perspective of individual life histories and the transmission of knowledge through migration and cultural exchanges.

Not quite role models
The second is sycophancy when the homage attracts attention.
The third stage is seniority when the officer reaches a level where promotions automatically accrue unless he insists on respecting not just the letter but the spirit of the law! The fourth is senility when the officer can safely be given the highest responsibility since he is no longer a threat to anyone!” However, Indian formula films usually insist on depicting the policeman as a hero who enhances the prestige of the uniform despite all odds.
Which is why the reported statement of Karnataka home minister M P Prakash admitting that none of the senior officers was willing to lead the anti-Naxal force comes as a surprise. “We have, therefore, decided to ask IGs of all the five ranges to lead the squad in their respective territories,” the minister added.
May be the state police force could be asked to watch movies inspired by the real-life exploits of its officers of an earlier era, some of whom have now retired and entered the political arena like Sangliana, who got elected to the Lok Sabha in 2004 from Bangalore despite being born and brought up in the North-East. That real life has something in common with the reel variety was evinced in the manner in which the gangster, poacher and cop-killer Veerappan was taken out in October 2004.
The Tamil Nadu Special Task Force infiltrated the Veerappan gang to an extent where the dreaded dacoit met his end while being driven in an STF van by an STF undercover operative! The STF’s Operation Cocoon is said to have been inspired by a 1995 Kamalahasan release titled Kurudhi Punal (Tamil for Blood Spring) and all about a cop being planted in a Naxal group and becoming its leader!

8 Tofu Health Benefits You Should Know
Find out why tofu is a healthy addition to any diet. Plus: Quick and easy recipes and tips for making tofu taste great.
Our editors and experts handpick every product we feature. We may earn a commission from your purchases.
Tofu is trending
Maybe it’s our obsession with plant-based protein. Or maybe it’s the allure of food that’s quick, healthy, and convenient. But tofu is having a moment. In the first half of 2020, tofu sales skyrocketed by 40 percent. And the trend shows no signs of slowing down, according to a market analysis published in 2019 by Grand View Research
“Tofu is a fabulous plant protein option for everyone,” says Desiree Nielsen, RD, author of Eat More Plants: Over 100 Anti-Inflammatory, Plant-Based Recipes for Vibrant Living. “It’s seriously underrated because it’s up against new ‘meatier’ plant-based options such as Beyond Beef.” These new meat substitutes come with a surprising amount of saturated fat and salt, she says. So tofu is a less-processed, healthier alternative.
Where does tofu come from?
Tofu (aka bean curd) may be a decades-old option in the United States, but it’s been a protein staple in Asia for centuries. Tofu got its start in China in roughly 220 B.C. Since then, its popularity has skyrocketed, making it a go-to protein in Japanese, Korean, and Southeast Asian cuisines.
If you haven’t tried tofu yet, here are eight reasons to give it a go.
Benefit: Tofu has a super-short ingredient list
What, exactly, is tofu anyway? It’s basically solidified soy milk. Tofu is made by boiling soybeans in water to create a milky liquid. Next, coagulants like calcium sulfate are added to form curds. Finally, those curds are drained, pressed into molds, and cut into squares to become the jiggly, white blocks we know as tofu.
Benefit: Tofu is loaded with nutrition
A 1.2 cup serving of tofu contains:
Calories: 94 (5 percent daily value, or DV)
Total fat: 5.9 g (9 percent DV)
Saturated fat: 0.9 g (4 percent DV)
Cholesterol: 0 mg (0 percent DV)
Carbohydrate: 2.3 g (1 percent DV)
Dietary fiber: 0.4 (1 percent DV)
Protein: 10 g (20 percent DV)
Sodium: 8.7 mg (0 percent DV)
Tofu is also a great way to rack up these healthful nutrients:
Complete plant protein
“Soy foods like tofu are unique in that they have the highest protein quality among plant proteins,” says Sharon Palmer, RDN, a registered dietitian nutritionist specializing in plant-based nutrition and sustainable living. “Just like meat, fish, poultry, eggs, and dairy, tofu contains good amounts of all the amino acids your body needs to manufacture its own protein supply.”
“Isoflavones are another word for the antioxidants in soy,” says Ginger Hultin, RDN, a Seattle-based registered dietitian nutritionist. “These compounds may decrease inflammation and are likely responsible for many of soy’s health benefits.”
“Depending on the type of coagulant used to set the tofu, it may contain as much as 30 percent of the RDA for calcium,” says Alex Caspero, RD, a registered dietitian and plant-based chef in St. Louis, Missouri.
Benefit: Tofu is heart healthy
“There’s a reason the American Heart Association recommends consuming soy foods like tofu,” says Caspero. “Soy can reduce both total and ‘bad’ LDL cholesterol.” A 2020 Circulation study of 289,900 people found that women who consumed one or more servings of tofu per week were 18 percent less likely to develop coronary heart disease than those who ate tofu less than once a month.
(Here are even more foods that help lower cholesterol.)
Benefit: Tofu may protect against breast cancer
“There’s this common misconception that tofu is high in estrogen, a hormone that may fuel the growth of certain kinds of breast cancer,” says Nielsen. However, that’s not the case. “Soy foods contain naturally occurring phytoestrogens such as isoflavones, which have more of a balancing effect on the body’s hormone levels,” she explains.
According to the American Cancer Society, soy foods like tofu may actually help guard against breast cancer, but there’s not enough evidence to say for sure. A meta-analysis published in PLoS One in 2020 provides some encouraging data. After reviewing the results of 14 studies, researchers found that women who consumed the most tofu were 22 percent less likely to develop breast cancer than those who ate the least tofu.
(Learn about these other soy myths.)
Benefit: Tofu might help you live longer
Thank plant protein. Replacing just 3 percent of the calories from animal protein in a person’s diet with plant protein could reduce their risk of dying early and of dying from cardiovascular disease by about 10 percent, according to a study published in JAMA Internal Medicine in 2020.
Benefit: Tofu is safe for many people
“Research confirms that tofu is safe to eat at all stages of life,” says Nielsen. “But it’s not a miracle food.” For example, research on tofu’s ability to alleviate menopausal symptoms, like hot flashes, is still inconclusive, she says.
Contrary to the rumors, tofu won’t slow your thyroid, says Caspero. However, if you already have hypothyroidism it may interfere with the absorption of thyroid medication. So be sure not to eat it within a few hours of taking thyroid meds, she advises.
Is there anyone who shouldn’t eat tofu? “Soy is a common allergen, so if you’re allergic to it, you’ll need to steer clear and be stringent about reading labels to avoid it completely,” says Hultin.
Benefit: Tofu is incredibly versatile
Unlike most proteins, tofu works in all kinds of dishes, from sweet to savory. No wonder chefs love its flexibility. “Tofu is like a blank canvas,” says Palmer. It’s very mild and bland, so it pretty much soaks up the flavor of any sauce, marinade, or spice you pair it with, she explains.
Try it when you crave meaty texture without the meat. “I typically use pressed or extra-firm tofu in my recipes for its dense texture,” says Nielsen. “It slices, fries, and roasts well, plus it produces a good crumble for tofu scrambles.”
This is the most common and versatile type of tofu. It’s a little less dense than extra-firm, making it a great pick for pan-frying, stir-frying, or including in sandwiches.
Silken (or soft) tofu
This creamier version is magic for desserts, like chocolate peanut butter pie. It’s also perfect for smoothies, dips, and sauces.

Benefit: Tofu is easy to prepare
“If you can cook chicken, you already know how to cook tofu,” says Nielsen. “It needs to be well-seasoned and spiced, but even a simple pan-fry will create a texture that most people will love.”
Another trick for great-tasting tofu is pressing it. “Tofu is packed in water, so you want to make sure to get as much of that water out as possible for the best texture,” says Caspero. “Simply wrap it in a few kitchen towels then press a heavy object on top, like a cast-iron skillet or some cans.” (Or, if you’re feeling fancy, you can invest in a tofu press.)

Tamar Braxton may not have always put herself aside for her family, but she did just that in an Instagram post commemorating her sister Trina Braxton’s work anniversary. However, fans soon began remarking on Trina’s apparently slimmed-down frame instead.
“Happy First anniversary on the @sistercircletv @trinabraxton1 !!!! soooooo proud of you 🥰🥰 congratulations 🎈🎊🍾,” Tamar gleefully wrote in a caption of an August 27 photo of Trina posing in front of the signage for “Sister Circle Live.”
Trina began on “Sister Circle” last year, taking over the spot vacated by comedian Kiana Dancie in April 2018. At the time, the TVOne show’s executive producer Helen Swanson told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that she quickly admired the chemistry Trina brought to the hosts when she sat in on some episodes during season 1, adding that she found the singer’s “soulfulness” engaging.
But fans were less impressed with Trina making it to the one-year mark and more focused on her skinnier appearance.
“Girl you look snatched. I need your diet”
“She lost all that weight!”
“❤ Looking fabulous and glowing”
“you look AMAZING ❤🔥💯”
“Come through wedding body! Congrats!”
Even her younger sister Tamar took notice, writing on the photo, which Trina initially shared to her Instagram page, “Getting skinty😘.”
The weight loss is all part of Trina’s plan to slim down as she prepares to walk down the aisle with fiancé Von Scales. While Trina has been documenting what she’s been doing to drop the weight on Instagram, it hasn’t always been smooth sailing.
In July, she shared a photo of her rolling her eyes next to Scales after he suggested the duo grab pizza.
“My Face when @vonscales says he wants PiZZA for the second day in a row and I am trying to fit into my wedding gown!” she captioned the photo.
Designed by Israeli clothing brand Naama & Anat Bridal, Trina enlisted the help of the self-proclaimed Bridal Queen of L.A. Briannah Jayde to get her sparkly gown. Additionally, Margaret Rowe Couture Jewelry added some embellishments.
“We are getting close! I can not wait to see it and try it on!” Trina exclaimed in part when she made her latest gown tease at the top of the month.

Murphy, Kilmer Introduce Bipartisan Resolution Declaring May as “Mental Health Month”
WASHINGTON, DC - Today Rep. Tim Murphy (R-PA) and Rep. Derek Kilmer (D-WA) introduced H.R. 320, a bipartisan resolution declaring May as "Mental Health Month," to bring awareness for the need to address our nation's mental health and addiction crisis. While over 43 million Americans suffer from mental illness, and nearly 10 million suffer from severe mental illness such as bipolar disorder or schizophrenia, too many go without evidence-based treatment. Every day, 950 lives are lost, directly or indirectly, to mental illness.
“Our nation is in the midst of a mental health and addiction crisis,” said Rep. Murphy, whose mental health reform bill, the Helping Families in Mental Health Crisis Act, was signed into law last December. “With skyrocketing rates of suicide and drug overdose deaths, specifically opioids, now more than ever our nation must come together to bring hope and save lives. I am pleased to join Congressman Kilmer to begin the efforts in Congress and focus on reducing stigma, expanding clinical models of care and ending our nation's mental health and addiction crisis.”
“Those struggling with mental illness deserve care and compassion, and those working to serve them deserve recognition and appreciation,” said Rep. Kilmer. “I’m proud to join with Representative Murphy to designate May as Mental Health Month not only because it gives us an opportunity to highlight the need to provide appropriate services and facilities for those impacted by mental illness, but it also allows us to say thanks to the public safety and medical professionals who are called on to serve these men and women every day.”

Post by Tanner Huggins and Nathan Thompson (bios), who attended the panel.
On Wednesday the American Enterprise Institute brought together higher education experts and policymakers in a panel aimed at “holding higher education accountable.” Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) discussed their proposed legislation, the Student Right to Know Before You Go Act, which is intended to provide students with more complete information about the value of the higher education programs they are considering before deciding where to enroll.
Senators Rubio and Wyden said that the bill is aimed at providing coordinated information to students, allowing them to see a more comprehensive institutional profile before making what the legislators called an “ever more consequential decision” on where to pursue higher education. The Senators noted that the federal government’s role in higher education thus far has been centered on increasing access, but now the government must focus on increasing the value of higher education, especially in a climate of increasing tuition costs and ballooning student debt. The bill asks institutions of higher education to reveal, for each degree program offered, the six-year graduation rate and the income-to-debt ratio and earnings potential students should expect after graduation.
The Senators were followed by a panel including Pauline Abernathy of the Institute for College Access & Success, Anthony Carnevale of the Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce, Amy Jones of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce, and Mark Schneider of the American Institutes for Research. The panel, moderated by Kevin Carey of the New America Foundation, engaged in a discussion on how the federal and state governments can “solve the information deficit” that students face when considering their higher education options. (All speaker bios and more information about their organization’s are available on AEI’s event page.)
Tony Carnevale argued that now, as in the past, more education means more lifetime earning potential but the dearth of information on basic metrics of higher education success – graduation rates, average costs and expected debt burden, average earning potentials across programs and majors, and many other factors – means that students are often making investments in higher education with unrealistic expectations of success after graduation. Pauline Abernathy noted that consumers of other goods and services often have clear, concise information on the products they consume – nutrition labels on food and safety and efficiency labels on cars, for example – but such information is unavailable to the “consumers” of higher education. In a volatile labor market where having a degree is no guarantee of success, Abernathy asks to what degree colleges and universities are accountable for graduates’ ability to find a gainful place in the workforce commensurate to their degree and the amount of debt they may have accumulated.
The proposed legislation reveals a growing public awareness of the changing demands on the American workforce, demands that are creating a rapidly-expanding population of non-traditional consumers and providers of higher education. Students considering higher education face more choices today than at any time in the past, and the decisions they make have ramifications throughout their adult lives.
The issues that the panel covered highlight the growing importance of The Saylor Foundation’s mission. When students decide to pursue a degree at most traditional institutions, they are taking a risk –will the degree pay for itself or will they struggle to repay student loans? Will their degree remain relevant, or will they need to pursue additional education in the future? Choosing an education means making an (often significant) investment, but with our flexible array of courses and programs, we’ve lowered the barrier to entry and expanded the possibility for path-discovery; the only investment students must make is their own time, effort, and dedication.

Louisiana is one of 30 states given a D in how it supports public schools in a survey done by a group headed by a critic of education overhauls.
The study was done by the Network for Public Education, whose president and co-founder is Diane Ravitch.
Ravitch, in a 2013 visit to Baton Rouge, blasted many of the public school changes enacted in Louisiana, including vouchers, charter schools and linking teacher evaluations to the growth of student achievement.
No state or the District of Columbia got a letter grade higher than a C.
Thirteen states got C’s, and the other eight got F’s, including Texas and Mississippi.
The top-rated states are Iowa, Nebraska and Vermont.
Each state was rated in six categories and received a composite grade.
Louisiana’s lowest mark was an F for what the group said is its failure to resist privatization of public schools.
“Charters and vouchers take the governance of schools out of the public’s hands and lead to worse inequities within the educational system as a whole,” the study says.
Charter schools are a key part of Louisiana’s education landscape, especially in New Orleans.
More than 7,000 low-income students receive vouchers — state aid to attend private schools — and the assistance was expanded statewide in 2012.
Louisiana got a D for what the group called its failure to reject high-stakes testing, which it called unreliable and invalid.
The state received a D in how it supports teachers and a D in students’ chances for success.
In other areas, the state got a C for education spending and a C for how those dollars are used.
Gov. John Bel Edwards said last week his aim is to keep state spending on public schools at current levels for the 2016-17 school year.
Edwards told a gathering hosted by the Louisiana Association of Educators that is the best education advocates can hope for amid the state’s $1.9 billion shortfall for the fiscal year that beings July 1.
Ravitch held education posts under former presidents Bill Clinton and George H.W. Bush but said she had a change of heart about public school problems after working for Bush.

The trouble with certain conspiracies is that one has to, on the one hand, believe that certain folk are smart enough to conspire, and then on the other hand, dumb enough to want the deluge that ensued.
Most obvious to me is all conspiracies with Free Masonry at it's core. Sedevacantists seem to be all in on this one, but the Freemasons don't get many devotees these days, now do they? As church attendance goes down, so does their membership. The whole mass of civic society, all those old clubs, and whatnot- dying in this awful age that they were supposedly helping usher in.
I don't know. It isn't like I am saying they are force for good, or anything. I'm just saying the simultaneity of being impossibly clever and yet so short sighted so as to create a society so dysgenic as to not only end your very own institution, but to rot out your own kind, by inverting all the rules of decent breeding, allowing way too much mutation accumulation, etc...- it just seems a bit far fetched.

I do love a peep in to peoples homes – all the interesting little nooks and spend much of time looking on Pinterest for inspiration. Being as I’ve had a little change around here in the living room, I thought maybe you’d like to see a colourful corner of mine ?
Last week I painted a few mini crates to display some of our garden perennials to work nicely with the colour wheel print above and my new cushion and chrome and white lamp sent over by the lovely folk at from Achica. The lamp is perfect for evening sewing and reading. It’s nice to have a lamp that will work well anywhere – I will probably use it at my sewing table too.
The cushion is bold and refreshing and perfect for Summer. Citrus is in this season so a fruity print cushion is my contribution … :)
Achica ( if you aren’t already aware ) is a luxury lifestyle online store offering exclusive, daily promotions on lots of home interiors and fashion accessories. Worth a look if you like discounted designer goodies.
Do you like the crates ? I bought some sample pots and it took no time at all to paint them. Inside I popped in some jam jars. They work well as window boxes too if you want to dress a sill or too. Actually, I nice little teachers gift for end of term too ? Not long now ..
If you have any DIY tips for adding colour to your home or want to just say hello – leave me a comment under this post or tweet me @lucylovesyablog – would love to hear your thoughts.
Hope you are having a fabulous day ..
I was sent the lamp and cushion by Achica for the purpose of this post. All opinions are my own.

I’ve had my share of these Cheese Pennies, but these might be different than other Cheese Pennies you may have tried. My brother-in-law works for a landmark restaurant in Boston, and these babies came from there. When he makes them, the hubs literally stands over the platter and eats them until he feels sick. Always.
1. I don’t have a picture
2. They sound odd
3. Very easy
4. Flavor explosion
You start with raisin bread, cut into squares. Mix 2 parts shredded parmesan cheese with 1 part mayo, spread on bread. Then, thinly slice a red onion, and throw a couple of pieces on top, pop in 375° oven. Bake for approximately 10 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve warm.
Here are some others I am considering for the remainder of 2011.

Burgundy Mushrooms ~ The Pioneer Woman
Cake Batter Fudge ~ Not Just A Housewife * I did make this over the weekend. It tasted delicious, but I could not get the consistency right (probably due to my impatience). I ended up throwing it out. Boo
Peppermint Bark ~ Savory Sweet Life * I usually pass out chocolate fudge to my neighbors, and others, but I think I might do the bark this year.
