Confession: I can tolerate some pretty mediocre coffee. I'm sipping a K-Cup right now. I grew up in the south drinking Waffle House coffee that had scorched on a hot plate since the last shift. And Waffle House was considered "the good stuff." More »

ScienceDaily (Sep. 19, 2012) ? Better adherence to the DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet is associated with significant reductions in blood pressure. However, African-Americans may be less likely than whites to adopt the diet, according to researchers at Duke University Medical Center.
The findings, which appear online Sept. 19 in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, suggest that altering traditional recipes to meet nutritional guidelines rather than eliminating certain foods altogether may result in better adherence among African-Americans.
The DASH diet is recognized as the diet of choice for preventing and managing high blood pressure. The diet is rich in fruits, vegetables, and low fat dairy products, and is low in fats and cholesterol.
"Previous research, including results from our ENCORE study, established the DASH diet as an important approach for lowering blood pressure, and for some individuals, it may be an effective alternative to taking medication for hypertension," said James A. Blumenthal, PhD, professor of behavioral medicine in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Duke University Medical Center. "In this study we were interested in whether dietary adherence was related to blood pressure changes and what factors predicted who would adhere to the diet."
The study was a new analysis of data from the ENCORE trial, led by Duke researchers to evaluate the effectiveness of the DASH diet on cardiovascular health. Participants were 144 sedentary, overweight or obese adults, who had high blood pressure and were not taking medication.
Researchers measured a series of clinical and behavioral factors at the start of the study including blood pressure, weight, and physical fitness, as well as dietary habits. Depression, anxiety and social support were also evaluated as potential predictors of adherence to the regimen.
Participants were randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups: the DASH diet alone; the DASH diet in combination with weight-loss counseling and aerobic exercise; or no change in diet and exercise habits.
After four months, participants in the group that got the DASH diet plus weight-loss counseling and exercise lost an average of 19 pounds, while weight remained stable in the other two groups.
Participants in both the DASH diet alone and DASH diet plus counseling groups had significant reductions in blood pressure, with greater adherence to the DASH diet resulting in the largest drops in blood pressure. The finding suggests that that following the DASH diet lowers blood pressure, independent of exercise and weight loss.
However, the addition of weight loss and exercise to the DASH diet promoted even greater reductions in blood pressure and improved other measures of cardiovascular health. "For overweight or obese patients with high blood pressure, clinicians should recommend the DASH diet in conjunction with exercise and weight loss for the best results," said Alan Hinderliter, MD, a cardiologist at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and an investigator in this study.
The researchers noted that African-American participants were less likely than white participants to eat foods recommended in the DASH diet prior to beginning the study. While both African-American and white participants in the DASH treatment groups increased the amount of DASH foods they ate, African-Americans were less likely to adopt the DASH diet compared to their white counterparts. No other demographic, behavioral, or social variable predicted whether participants would adhere to the DASH diet.
"We need to be aware of cultural differences in dietary preferences in order to help people better adopt a DASH-friendly diet," Blumenthal said. "It is important to take into account traditional food choices and cooking practices when attempting to incorporate more DASH foods into daily meal plans."
Culturally sensitive changes to implementing the DASH diet, such as modifying traditional "soul food" recipes to meet nutritional recommendations rather than eliminating foods altogether, may result in better adherence among African-Americans.
"Given the success of the DASH diet, we know that changing lifestyles can make a significant difference in people's health," Blumenthal said. "And in the long run, if people are able to maintain changes to their diet and exercise habits, it can lead to a lower risk for heart attack and stroke."
In addition to Blumenthal, Duke researchers include Dawn Epstein, Andrew Sherwood, Patrick J. Smith, Carla Caccia, Pao-Hwa Lin, Michael A. Babyak, and Julie J. Johnson. Other researchers include Linda Craighead of Emory University, and Alan Hinderliter of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
The study was funded with grants from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (HL074103), and the General Clinical Research Center, National Institutes of Health (M01-RR-30).

Seriously, if this was the American Dream, couldn't we have come up with something better?
"The Queen of Versailles" is funny, sad, infuriating, instructive. It's the American Dream inflated to ridiculous extremes, until it bursts.
More than a social morality tale, this is a character study, with the title well chosen.
"The Queen of Versailles" ought to be required viewing for anyone who blames the rich for yanking the rug out from under America's economy.
By the end, the movie has pulled off a small miracle: You become absorbed in the lives of these people for who they are and not what they own.
What I left with was not hatred. I disapprove of the values they represent, but I also find them fascinating and just slightly lovable.
Documentaries are rarely as hilarious as this one. Well, the first half of it at least
Filmmaker Greenfield has a wonderful eye for the absurd, finding moments of offbeat humanity all the way through this involving documentary
[E]nds up an ever less slightly ungenerous look at the .01 percent than it might have been... But this is still a brutal film from many angles.
One of the great unsayable truths about the American dream is that it is a bit of a Ponzi scheme ... our system admits a glimmer of hope that anyone, no matter how lowborn, can rise to the top.
Extremely funny and revealing ...
[Siegel] is now suing Greenfield for "misrepresentation". Well, I know whose side I'm on.
She epitomises a Western culture struggling to wean itself off debt.
Greenfield's film is bathed in Florida sunshine, adding to the sensation that we're watching Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous with a Marxist punchline.
Never has grotesque wealth looked so unenviable, or its removal been so entertaining, as in this garishly watchable riches-to-rags documentary ...
[Siegel] ultimately emerges as someone who belongs more in The Little House on the Prairie: ever cheerful, and triumphantly unimpeachable.
The temptation to be moralistic must have been overpowering, yet Greenfield finally manages to summon sympathy for people who at first seem vain, selfish and greedy.
Prepare to be shocked, disgusted and compelled.
In the end, these are human beings, not emblems - and it is this that makes this documentary one of the most watchable, for rich and poor alike.
A bizarre and mesmerising journey to the heart of Cloud Cuckoo Land.
It is a comedy that aspires to tragedy, and a metaphor for a nation collapsing beneath the incompatible, intolerable pressures of excess and inequity.
For all their garishness, the Siegels are pretty likable, even if attempts to make you sympathetic to their "plight" fall short.
It scores a lot of laughs at the Siegel's bad taste and odd ways of adapting to their newfound misfortune. Thankfully, Greenfield also makes the Siegels sympathetic.
If you get some kind of sick kick watching the mighty take a fall, The Queen of Versailles will be nothing short of a schadenfreudic ball.
Tech startups go through waves of branding waves and fads ? in a recent one startups started adding r like FlickR to perfectly good English words. When I co-founded a start up a decade ago, our heads spun with the choices we got from branding experts (which included every one of our employees). Empty vessels, associative terms, combinations of characters (which btw would make great passwords today).
Larger companies don?t have the luxury of renaming themselves too often (oh they can but the turmoil and cost of reprinting millions of employee business cards is usually a pretty good wake up call) so they change tag lines quite often and dream up words for them. In a recent wave, they are taking perfectly good English words, and adding not just R, but consultant-isms to them

(Reuters) - A U.S. regulation that limits how much of its own capital a bank can put at risk is causing headaches for Morgan Stanley as it prepares to raise a new multi-billion-dollar global infrastructure fund, people familiar with the situation said.
The regulation, called the Volcker rule, puts a cap on the amount of capital that Morgan Stanley can pledge to the new fund. That means senior executives at Morgan Stanley Infrastructure Partners will have to make do with a smaller share of the fund's profits, the sources said.
While the majority of the executives have so far accepted the new reality and Morgan Stanley is in talks to increase the fund managers' share of profits, a few have left the bank, the sources said, declining to be identified because they were not authorized to speak publicly on the matter.
Over the past year, at least four key executives who oversaw infrastructure fund investments in the Americas, Europe and Asia have left or are in the process of leaving the Wall Street firm, the sources said.
The most recent departures were Adil Rahmathulla, an executive director for investments in the Americas, and Gautam Bhandari, a managing director and head of Morgan Stanley Infrastructure in Asia, the sources said.
Morgan Stanley spokesman Matt Burkhard declined to comment and would not make executives available for comment.
Morgan Stanley's problems underscore the disadvantage banks have when competing with independent alternative asset managers such as Blackstone Group LP and Carlyle Group LP. They also highlight the constraints facing U.S. investment banks wishing to hold on to traditionally strong but capital-intensive businesses, particularly private equity assets that, by nature, are usually tied up for several years.
Infrastructure funds invest in assets such as roads, airports, power grids and electricity transmission networks. They offer investors low-risk returns with a long-investment horizon. But being private equity-type assets, they are much less liquid than traditional stocks and bonds.
The future of such businesses at banks like Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs Group Inc has been in question since the Volcker rule passed in 2010. The rule, which was mandated by the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act and named for former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker, is expected to be finalized by the end of this year.
Morgan Stanley's current $4 billion infrastructure fund, launched in 2008, is part of the bank's merchant banking business, which in turn is housed inside its investment management division.
The infrastructure fund has about 40 employees, with roughly 10 in senior investment roles, sources said.
Investment banks are already having a hard time convincing investors that they are the right custodians of alternative assets. Goldman Sachs was not as successful in its second infrastructure fund endeavor, slashing its fundraising target in half in the middle of its marketing process and ending up raising $3.1 billion.
Banks have been approaching the regulatory hurdle with different strategies. Bank of America Corp, HSBC Holdings PLC and Credit Suisse Group AG have each outlined plans to exit some private-equity businesses. Deutsche Bank AG had planned to do sell some of its alternative asset businesses as well, but reversed course in a strategic overhaul last week.
VOLCKER CHANGES
Under the Volcker rule, Morgan Stanley will have to cap investments in new private equity funds at 3 percent, far below the 10 percent investment it contributed to its existing infrastructure fund.
Fund managers have decided to increase their personal commitment to the new fund, targeting about 1 percent of its capital compared to 0.5 percent of capital of the 2008 fund, according to one of the sources.
Some executives want the firm to do more to compensate fund managers for losing out on profits as a result of Morgan Stanley's smaller commitment, with one of them even calling for a spin out of the infrastructure business, the sources said.
Morgan Stanley has been offering to share more of the carried interest - its slice of investment profits - with the fund managers. Fund managers currently get 60 percent of the carried interest, up from an initial level of 50 percent, one source said. They are negotiating a further increase for the new fund, the source added.
To be sure, a lower contribution from Morgan Stanley into the new infrastructure fund may not affect investor sentiment and the amount of money the bank is able to eventually raise.
For example, Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP), an independent firm, is putting less than 1 percent of its own money into its latest $8.25 billion infrastructure fund, according to a person familiar with the matter.
GIP did not respond to a request for comment.
DEPARTURES
But the promise of higher pay elsewhere has played a role in at least some Morgan Stanley fund executives looking for opportunities outside the bank, the sources said. Independent firms, such as GIP and Alinda Capital Partners, do not have a bank owner they have to share profits with.
Of the recent departures, Rahmathulla is on "gardening leave" - or the notice period when he is still on payroll - considering opportunities at other independent funds, sources said.
Bhandari is still at Morgan Stanley but recently informed limited partners of his intention to leave and may eventually launch his own fund, sources said.
Morgan Stanley is speaking to him about the possibility of launching an emerging markets-focused fund off its infrastructure platform, one of the sources added.
Other executives who have left the fund in the past year include Sadek Wahba, the former chief investment officer who left the fund in late 2011; and Vincent Policard, who oversaw some investments in Europe and quit Morgan Stanley in August 2011. Private equity firm KKR & Co announced in February that it had hired him.
Wahba and Policard could not be reached for comment.
After Wahba left, Morgan Stanley named three co-heads of the business - Markus Hottenrott, who is also chief investment officer; Anne Valentine Andrews, who is also chief operating officer; and Jim Wilmott, who is also head of Europe.
John Veech, a managing director, oversees investments in the Americas division where Rahmathulla worked.

Many manufacturers around the world are making ingenious and creative cabinets to allow kitchen an stylish and stylish start looking. Usually, while buying your kitchen cabinets, home owners go for oak or birch when the later is known for their fine grain.

If you actually cant get metal lighting, use gold bottle of spray paint and put it to use to the frame on the chandelier.

To take your hands, take 6-10 minutes from your day, and generally ?play with yourself? doing natural penis exercises makes most men very skeptical about going with this process. I flawlessly understand this skepticism considering the fact that I too was a skeptic as i first came in contact with penile exercises. However , after giving within and giving these programs a try, and started seeing outcomes within the first few weeks, that skepticism went right out the windows.
Working out your manhood works perfectly. And delay pills work perfectly because of one simple truth. This particular 1 simple truth is what I?m likely to talk about nowadays. When you find out what, you will see why most of other male enhancement methods are so ineffective, so dangerous, so useless, and thus freaking expensive!
Okay, to understand this truth about working out your penis, you have to first know what it takes to develop a bigger penile size.
In order to enlarge your penis and obtain an impressive size, improve the health of your manhood, improve the appearance (cosmetically) of your manhood, and improve your sexual performance (such as long lasting a long time during intercourse), there are a variety associated with things that must occur in order to get all of those outcomes.
Those activities are:
1 . ) Your pennis chambers need to be stimulated and also enlarged.
second . ) Your own suspensory ligament must naturally be extended.
5. ) Your PC muscle should be increased.
four. ) You need to increase blood flow into your pennis shaft naturally.
And that leads me directly into that one simple truth about penile exercises that should you do something on this truth, you will be guaranteed those amazing benefits We mentioned above. The actual 1 simple truth is that penis workouts (and male enhancement within general) is like a puzzle. All parts must fit together? or you won?t get amazing outcomes.
That truth is the main reason most other techniques don?t work. These people don?t look after all the necessary steps to improve and improve a man?s penile. They claim that they actually, but this is further through the truth. Actually most techniques only take proper care of ONE aspect (barely). For example , pumps ONLY increase blood flow, extenders ONLY extend, pills ONLY increase blood flow, and so forth
Penile exercise programs include a myriad of workouts that you have to because of improve Every factor of your manhood (including increasing your libido, causing you to last longer during sex, making your ejaculate release more forceful, making your penis look more muscle, increasing the size of your penis head, and also more).
At this point, of course all of that sounds great and all, however I recommend you take a look once again at the title informed. We didn?t just mention that there is one simple truth about working out your manhood which will get you amazing results, I also mention that you must TAKE ACTION.
The reason by that is not only do you have to download a reputable penis exercise program, you? must? stay? consistent!
I am unable to stress this particular sufficient.
It really is absolutely vital that should you decide on doing these programs to improve every aspect of your manhood? permanently and also significantly? you got to stick with the program consistently. Consistency is so important simply because this method is actually 100% natural. As well as anything that is totally natural takes dedication and also hard work to obtain outstanding outcomes (i. e. natural body building).
Main point here, if you prefer a manhood that you can be proud of, and if you need to provide a significant other orgasms like she never could possibly imagine, i then firstly recommend you consider doing penis workouts, and I secondly (and STRONGLY) recommend you ensure you stay totally consistent. In that case, then in weeks from you now could have a penis size that you simply ONCE dreamed of having.
Do you want to Make your penis bigger QUICK, grow longer and also thicker in several weeks, and give your woman SHOUTING orgasms? Properly, I recommend the Penis Benefit exercise program. This particular award winning program is safe, effective, permanent, and you can download every thing INSTANTLY (no embarrassing prevents at a store or packages to receive)! I proceeded to go from 5. 5 inches to seven. 5 inches within 8 weeks with this particular powerful program!

CAUTION: This program is EXTREMELY effective, and I recommend you stop this program for 48-72 hours if you start to grow greater than an inch within a weeks time.
FONTANA, Calif. (AP) ? Out of the corner of his eye, Ryan Hunter-Reay saw his only competition for the IndyCar championship crash out of the title-deciding season finale.
Will Power's accident should have given Hunter-Reay a wide-open road to his first championship. Instead, he had to hang on for 500 nerve-racking miles, withstand several hairy restarts and a controversial red-flag to snatch the title away from Power on Saturday night.
Needing to finish fifth to win the title after Power exited the race, Hunter-Reay did one better, finishing fourth to put the American flag back atop the IndyCar podium.
Hunter-Reay claimed the title by three points over Power to become the first American since Sam Hornish Jr. in 2006 to win the IndyCar championship.
"I just drove 500 miles like it was for my life," he said. "I can't believe we're IndyCar champions. I cannot believe this. My dream has come true."
Power, denied for a third consecutive year, was in street clothes watching the finish on television after crashing out early at Auto Club Speedway. He took a 17-point lead into the finale, but once out of the race, gave Hunter-Reay total control of his destiny.
But it certainly wasn't easy.
Hunter-Reay struggled all week at California, even wrecking in Wednesday's open test session, and was off at the start of the race. But he picked his way through the field and was on the edge of where he needed to finish as the laps wound down.
Still, a flurry of late cautions made for some hair-raising restarts and a late red-flag that drew the ire or team owner Michael Andretti. Hunter-Reay managed to hang on in a race that was won by Ed Carpenter, another American.
"We were struggling all weekend. I didn't want to let anyone really know about it that much. We were really in the woods," Hunter-Reay said.
Power, an Australian who has finished second in the points three years in a row, visited Hunter-Reay after the finish.
"At the end of the day, Hunter-Reay is a deserving champion, a real fighter," Power said.
Hunter-Reay won a series-best four races this season, his third with Andretti Autosport. He used a string of three consecutive wins during the summer to climb into the championship, and with Power in position to clinch two weeks ago at Baltimore, he won again to stay in the hunt.
He was rewarded on the eve of the championship race with a new two-year contract from Andretti, the team he has credited for giving him the continuity and support he needed to put together the best season of his career.
"It was really an unbelievable weekend," said Andretti, who won his fourth championship as an owner but first since 2007.
Power, meanwhile, was left wondering how yet another title slipped away.
He's the most dominant driver on road and street courses, and knows that racing on ovals is the one glaring weakness in his program. And when he looks back at this season, he knows that a blocking penalty at Texas and crashes on the ovals at Indianapolis, Iowa, and now, California, cost him the title.
"I wish I could put my finger on one particular thing I don't do right," Power said. "If you look at it, three ovals I crashed out of is a massive hit on points. It's over a whole season that you win a championship and that was proven tonight."
Power crashed 55 laps into the race, spinning hard into the outside wall when his car slipped in a seam in the track. It's the third consecutive year Power has gone into the finale with the title on the line and had an incident snatch away his chances.
He brushed the wall at Homestead in 2011 and lost the title by five points to Dario Franchitti. Last year, his points lead was gobbled up when another car hit him on pit road in the penultimate race, and he was involved in the 15-car accident that killed Dan Wheldon in the finale.
Power broke his back in that accident in Las Vegas.
"Man, depressing," Power said after leaving the wreck. "I wish I could care less."
Power laughed nervously, searching and failing to find the right words to describe his frustration.
"I don't know what to say. It's depressing," he said. "Depressing to lose the championship again that way. Nothing I can say, mate, it's just depressing. I don't know what emotion to even feel right now."
But his Penske team, which has not won a championship since Hornish in 2006, worked furiously to get his car back on the track so he could turn 12 laps and gain more points in the standings. Power had already changed into street clothes, rushed back into his firesuit, and had a total change of attitude when he got back in the car.
"Keep our fingers crossed," he smiled, his mood completely changed.
Both Power and Hunter-Reay went into the race seeking their first career title, and Power said he watched on TV the closing laps unsure how it would end. He was cracking self-deprecating jokes when it was over, perhaps an unusual reaction for one of the most intense and driven drivers in the series.
"Well, I've done it for two years in a row, so I've kind of learned how to cope with it," he said.
I have seen this picture on Facebook several times since last night and each time it makes my heart heavy. Here's a mother determined to stamp out what should be nurtured in her child; kindness, open-mindedness, and empathy. It makes me want to give both those kids hugs. Both deserve to be able to walk home with their neighbour without threats of violence.
Her friend's comment about tough love baffles me. Obviously this person has no idea what tough love is. Tough love is allowing your teenager to deal with the consequences of their actions. They do something wrong and you do not step in to fix things for them, hoping that the results will show them in a way lectures won't. Tough love involves stepping back, you are not the consequences and you don't deal the consequences. It is not an excuse to violently pass your prejudices onto your children.
The other part that confuses me is their ages. How old are they? If they're prepubescent children then how does she know this boy is gay? Is she assuming because of interests or personality? My son was uniformly described as "sweet" when he was a child. He used to bring his baby doll to school and loved the colour pink. He's 15 years old now and hanging out with his girlfriend as I type. You can't judge kids (anyone for that matter) based on stereotypes. And, if they're old enough for this kid to have actually come out, then why on earth is she spanking her son? If she is putting her hand on her teenage son's backside, I hope someone from child protective services is investigating this family.
One proud moment in my life came one afternoon when my daughter got home from school. This was back when she was in grade eight and, for some unknown reason, the school decided it would be fun to invite all the boys and girls in the senior classes to stay at school for a sleepover. It was going to be heavily supervised and my daughter was eager to attend. All the kids were talking about it. That afternoon, however, my daughter was angry. Sarah*, a classmate of hers, had confided in one of her friends that she was bisexual. On the bus ride that morning, the friend had spread that information around. Her excuse was that she felt everyone should know before the sleepover. And, of course, that information spread within minutes of the buses arrival. Daughter got to school in time to hear a group of her classmates loudly proclaim that there was no way they'd sleep anywhere near Sarah. That was when my daughter walked up to her and told Sarah that she could put her sleeping bag beside daughter's bag. She wasn't going to spend the sleepover alone.
Anyone who's had a preteen/young teen girl knows what these years are like. Sleepover central. Two days later my daughter got an invitation to go for a sleepover at Sarah's house. What does a parent do? In my home, I request to go and visit the parents. I spoke to the Mom and got a general idea of what their home was like. Squalid and disorganized but I didn't see anything that would actively harm daughter and hoped maybe the rampant messiness would be an eye opener to prod her into cleaning her own room (it wasn't). They slept over at each other's homes a few times before Sarah moved.
I allowed daughter to deal with the consequences of her actions, with support and praise from me. If you stand up for someone in front of bullies you paint a target on your shirt. Daughter learned this as vandalism of school property (namely graffiti against Sarah) quickly occurred and was blamed on daughter by the same girls who had refused to sleep near Sarah in the first place. What did daughter learn from her actions? She has about three friends now who are "out" (I'm sure she will tell me the exact number once she reads my blog) so I figure one thing was standing up for friends and supporting them.
Holley too has learned one thing from her actions, her page is no longer totally public since her status went viral (her friend, on the other hand, seems to have missed this lesson). I can only hope she's learned something as well that her son already knew, kindness and empathy.

Terms of Service
There are a few ground rules for participation in LAGbook. Please respect these rules, and each other.
Be civil. No personal attacks. Do not feel compelled to defend your honor in public.
Stay on topic in Forums. Please pay attention to the topic of your messages, and check that it still relates to its parent. Off-topic discussion not taken to private email is eligible for removal.
Be kind to newcomers. Newcomers may be annoying. But lots of valued contributors started out this way, and treating newcomers kindly makes them more likely to turn into the valuable community members we all know and love. So while you don't have to humor them or suffer them gladly, and it's fine to point out when they make mistakes, point newcomers in the right direction in addition to turning them away from the wrong ones, and be kind to them in the process of correcting their transgressions.
Let sleeping dogs lie. It's tempting to revisit controversial decisions you do not agree with, but it's rarely productive to do so, since it almost always results in the same heated, lengthy, and time/energy draining discussions leading to the same conclusion that was reached in the last round. Therefore, for issues already raised, discussed, and decided upon, reopen the discussion only if you have significant new information that would reasonably prompt reconsideration of the original decision.
Ignore spammers. Spam is a blight upon the face of the net. Nobody likes it. However, it is hard to avoid. Despite our best efforts, you will occasionally see spam on our site. However, don't forget that complaining about spam in public increases noise, but not signal. It may make you feel better, but it doesn't help.
Identify your subject matter. Not everyone has time reading all forum and wiki postings. To ensure that your message reach the right people at timely manner, identify your subject matter clearly in the subject line. Subjects like a question and problem are not very helpful.
No unsubscribe messages. Unfortunately, this bears repeating.
No test messages. Please do not send test messages to the forum. You can, however, create test pages on the Wiki, but please don't forget to delete them after you finish learning.
