Ok.. anyone who worked in the food industry knows what a Mother’s Day cleanup or a New Years Eve night looks like. But i don’t care how bad the restaurant you were in was, it looks nothing like this Golden Corral …
By the way, for your health, the restaurant is in Florida..
Piles of trash.. ‘fresh’ meat near dumpsters..
And to all the dirty restaurants among us: The net is filled with foodies and whistleblowers.
If your kitchen is this bad, it deserves to be online for all to see..
Last night I proposed a one ingredient (and substantially more standing) lifestyle. Today was day one.. I think it went well. Carrot juice in the morning followed by an apple, chicken with salt and pepper at lunch and broccoli.. dinner is yet to be determined.
The goal is not to really lose weight, though that would not be a bad thing, but also to just be overall …. better. Feel better, act better, live better. That is the true goal of the one ingredient standup lifestyle..
We will see how this goes..
In the mean time, here are 20 other healthy foods to consider
Anghus Houvouras is an old friend and a great writer. This article is pretty well thought out, too..The argument is made that the media is murdering movies before they are out.. The ‘Crucifixion Principle’ .. interesting concept. Good read.. It’s worth a follow as well ..
The chairman of a company whose train barreled into a small town told a newspaper its brakes may have been inadvertently disabled.
According to police, it wasn’t terrorism. Just ‘criminal’ at this point.
Investigators are trying to determine if the train’s brakes were disabled..
BOSTON (AP) — His arm in a cast and his face swollen, a blase-looking Dzhokhar Tsarnaev pleaded not guilty Wednesday in the Boston Marathon bombing in a seven-minute proceeding that marked his first public appearance since his capture in mid-April.
It was 2006
George W. Bush was president..
And we were all not aware of what Edward Snowden has recently told us..
If only we could go back in time and say sorry
This from CNN:
Google and related services were inaccessible to some users this morning, prompting confusion and consternation across the Web.
Reports of outages began about 9:30 a.m. ET and quickly spread on Twitter, with users asking if the problem was affecting others as well.
Among the services affected were Gmail, Google Plus, Google Drive and YouTube. According to anecdotal reports, the outages appeared to be most prevalent among users in the Southeastern United States.
Google did not immediately comment on the problem.
Look no further than Geocities.. This website captures some of the classics..
I myself had a few Geoshitties sites..
It was the original Myspace.. the original blogger..the original Facebook.. it predated Tumblr. The divorced dads and Jeep lovers from the 1990s paved the way for the personal blogs and opinionated sites of today.
God bless Geocities, and the pavers of the internet superhighway.
But Yahoo! shut down Geocities.
And now Yahoo! owns Tumblr…
Hmmm….
I haven’t had any kind words for Justin Bieber. I’ve maintained no fever.
And with TMZ report about Bieber urinating into a mop bucket at a NYC city restaurant and cussing
Bill Clinton, my already 0% regard for him has now plummeted j to the negative territory.
I will not say anything that hasn’t been already..
I think every working man, woman, and child should be offended at this. It’s tasteless sure, but even more so is an insult to minimum wage workers and disregarded service employees—many of whom should be busy deleting any songs they own featuring the voice of Beebs.
Yes, indeed….the cell phone camera is always spying. In this matter, Bieber was using his own urine in an attempt to humiliate the people who most likely just waited on him hand and foot. But instead he only disgraced himself even further than the repugnant little creature has done previously..
A natural gas spill in the Gulf of Mexico is leaving a four-mile-wide “rainbow sheen” on the water’s surface south of Louisiana, the Coast Guard said Tuesday.
Good to see so many people linking this around the Internet(s) .. I linked it a few days past.. Love seeing everyone in agreement, right and left, about the state of American police…
[T]he Fourth Amendment requires that searches be “reasonable.” If using a SWAT team to make sure a bar isn’t serving nineteen-year-olds is a reasonable use of force, it’s hard to imagine what wouldn’t be.I’m digging this because I’m reading through his new book as all of these articles are being posted online. I’m so glad that this topic is receiving more much needed attention. I mean, the Department of Education has their own fucking SWAT team for crying out loud.
My step-dad was a sheriff in Dallas, Texas for fifteen years so when the topic of police abuse comes up you can imagine the kinds of discussions it devolves into. In just the few years since my step-dad retired, the police force in America has changed dramatically.
A freshly laundered shirt, covered in plastic, flaps in the wind as it takes flight from in front of Manayunk Cleaners. It wasn’t picked up by a breeze, though, rather a remote-controlled drone,…
New technology is here to stay. For better or worse.
Dry cleaning.. better
Drone attacks.. worse.
In an initiative aimed at rooting out future leakers and other security violators, President Barack Obama has ordered federal employees to report suspicious actions of their colleagues based on behavioral profiling techniques that are not scientifically proven to work, according to experts and government documents.
Even more from McClatchyDC:
Federal employees and contractors are asked to pay particular attention to the lifestyles, attitudes and behaviors – like financial troubles, odd working hours or unexplained travel – of co-workers as a way to predict whether they might do “harm to the United States.” Managers of special insider threat offices will have “regular, timely, and, if possible, electronic, access” to employees’ personnel, payroll, disciplinary and “personal contact” files, as well as records of their use of classified and unclassified computer networks, polygraph results, travel reports and financial disclosure forms.
Oy …
The People’s Meteorologist and his moll just couldn’t keep quiet about The Forecast That Never Was.
I have been inspired by my nephew, a little over a decade younger than me, coming back from several weeks of his training to become a Marine and seeing a healthy, altogether different looking young man.. It made me realize the roly poly little bout-faced boy I am becoming needs to stop.
I think it’s time to become thinking about healthy. I am heading quickly into the 30s.. and then the early midlife. And God forbid some type of strange crisis. Luckily for my family we don’t have the money to spend on a Corvette—but whatever stopped a man from making rash decisions without fundage before, right?
Nonetheless.. I have decided on a new healthy lifestyle decision. First off, eliminate as much sitting as possible. We all know lots of studies and research exists to show just how much we sit, and how it could actually be deadly for our health… And yes, it will be tougher playing ANGRY BIRDS while standing.. but these are the pitfalls of a healthy choice.
The other factor into healthy life 101: Eliminate as many GMO foods as possible *sometimes that’s impossible* .. but to make it even simpler, I am going with the ‘one ingredient diet.’
While I don’t know and did not research whether anyone coined the term ‘one ingredient diet’ yet, I am going to attempt to claim credit in my ignorance.
My simple notion of this diet: Don’t eat anything with more than one ingredient.
For example: If you want lemon peppered salmon, you would purchase; Non-GMO fresh caught salmon (good luck, I know), a lemon, pepper, and butter. You would NOT purchase the seasoning already made or margarine, as they have more than one ingredient. If you want applesauce, buy an apple, sugar, and mash it together. Avoid the applesauce with added ingredients, splenda, and especially ASPARTAME (cue the dread music.)
So it’s not that you’re only eating one thing, you can actually combine your one ingredients together to make a meal.
This will get rough.. indeed.
But for generations, no, CENTURIES, we’ve done this. We’ve cooked, and made our own food.. And now, today, even this day, people are dying off quickly from the last generation that knew how to cook. Like, really cook. Like cook their butts off to the point where you never had anything that tasted that good. THAT is the purpose of the one ingredient diet. You cook your own food, slower, and longer, and you appreciate what you’re eating more. And you can also get to know what you’ve been eating.
There were be some exceptions. For example, if I cannot find sunflower seeds without salt, I can cheat and get ones with the salt.. I don’t care to make my own bread so I will buy from local bakers who only add the basic ingredients instead of the 500 that big makers put in..
And wine and beer?
Well.. not sure yet on the wine aspect.. Needs to research what ingredients go into FUNKY LLAMA, my favorite brand. But I have the beer thing covered: Straub from Pennsylvania. Good beer, no salt or sugar added..
So wish my luck .. hopefully this mission won’t become an ordeal. Maybe if it works I can market it.. Unless someone else did that already. And if you did, don’t sue me.. Pay me to help you!
And drink up, healthy beer style.
We constantly fail to acknowledge the atrocities of war , street violence, and human rights abuses that our own government is committing.
This is more than an interesting story appearing on TRUTHOUT from the DAILY TAKE.. The idea that for Americans to understand torture and the effects of American policy, we have to see the most brutal of scenes..
It bring sup one question in my mind: Have we become numb to torture, that even if we did see it we’d look away and not even care?
We have been handed torture fest films for a decade since 9/11.. TV shows glorify hardcore violence against someone for the purposes of extracting information (think 24) .. how many SAW films did they make now?
So when we really see the real thing… do we even notice anymore?
What kind of a society are we in?
We did change since 9/11. That is no lie..
Chucky is 25. Did you know that?
And I guess in that age of movies, you’re bound to be direct to DVD..
But.. now I realize something.. me, and others in my generation, practically grew up with CHILD’S PLAY. It was the horror movie always there since we were young. Interesting when you put that perspective on it.
So.. Think NBC will regret letting Leno go? He certainly has worked for them since about 1995 when Letterman changed his style and started the ratings dive…
I still say late night television was ready for a female comedy host. They missed their chance..
Chelsea Handler or Tina Fey would have been spot on..
Instead they are stuck with Jimmy Fallon… I think they’ll regret it.
(Though this is also a good chance for Arsenio Hall, who is throwing himself back into the ring)… Yes it feels like 1993 all over again..
