Why Are Democrats so Obsessed with Trump's Tax Returns?
A major report has come out identifying in no uncertain terms that sugar is bad and soda companies are lying to us. The sky, as it turns out, is also blue.
In a special report filed earlier this week in the Journal of the American Medical Association, the sugar industry's lobbying organization, the Sugar Association, stands accused of paying prominent nutritionists in the 1950s and 60s to downplay the connection between sugar and coronary heart disease, and to instead shift the blame to fats. These nutritionists' findings have been used to direct the course of federal regulation regarding nutrition ever since.
The Sugar Association, then called the Sugar Research Foundation, reviewed early drafts of reports that would later be published in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine and edited them for content and overall message. They stand accused of doing this in the interest of Big Sugar's profit margins.
With over 370,000 deaths per year attributed to coronary heart disease over the past five decades, the industry behind this corrupted research potentially has the deaths of at least 18.5 million people on their hands.
So sugar, a highly addictive crystalline substance, wreaks havoc on our bodies and sends us to an early grave. What's more, a massive corporate lobby has paid for bad science in an effort to keep us from going cold turkey on the stuff.
...is anyone really that surprised? Anyone?
Think back to the last sugary substance you had. Think about how it made you feel afterwards. Now think back to roughly twenty minutes before that moment. What was going through your head?
The last sugary substance I had was three handfuls of Mike & Ikes at about 3:00 yesterday afternoon. Yes, three. I had gotten 7.5 hours of sleep the night prior, ran two miles that morning, and had three cups of coffee all before 11 AM.
Yet even with that optimal day of an energy lifestyle, ten minutes after my Mike & Ikes, I was falling asleep at my desk.
An hour later, my joints were sore.
My stomach was grumbling and my teeth hurt on my way home.
I didn't want the hamburger I grilled for myself (and I love hamburgers!) and I went to bed at 8:30 PM out of sheer exhaustion.
Twenty minutes prior to ingesting enough sugar to kill a gerbil, I thought to myself, "I think I'll pop over to the snack station and have a Mike & Ike or two. But only a couple! I deserve it."
Is anyone surprised that a substance which turned a healthy, grown man into a sore, sleepy grouch with zero self-control and a toothache might be bad for their heart?!
Is anyone surprised that a massively profitable industry has paid tens of thousands of dollars (nearly $50K in today's money) to keep its product's detriments a secret?
Candy makes you crash. Soda rots your teeth. Energy drinks light your blood on fire. I made up the last one, but after "rots your teeth," it doesn't sound so out of the blue, does it?
Why the hell does a nation full of free-thinking adults need scientists to tell them they shouldn't eat a whole lot of a powdered substance that can change the ways your neurons fire?
I'm not sure what the worst part about this is: the fact that sugar's true effects could have been identified decades ago, the fact that we needed someone to tell us it was bad, or the fact that fat has been utterly thrown under the bus in its place.
To be fair, fat is no cakewalk either. But ask yourself this: How do you feel after you drink a 20 oz bottle of Sprite, and how do you feel after you eat a freshly grilled hamburger? Assuming your burger isn't from the equally-as-dangerous end of the fat industry as the Sprite is (fast food), your burger probably leaves you feeling pretty good. You might be in need of a nap, but it's not as if your body is shutting down. Eating one home-cooked cheeseburger with a little homemade mayo doesn't leave one desperate for three more. An all-beef hot dog doesn't make one's joints seize up.
You might have to jog off a growing midsection, but that beef isn't going to literally send you into withdrawal.
Our bodies evolved to eat a few things pretty damn well. Fatty things can be found on every single continent in thousands of forms (beef, pork, poultry... you know, animals). Sugarcane comes from one place on earth, India. No shade towards India, but if a foodstuff needs to travel across a vast trading network before it can arrive on your plate, your body probably doesn't process it very well.
There's nothing wrong with eating outside of that diet in today's modern age - What's the point of being outside the food chain if not? - but we shouldn't need nutritionists to tell us that a substance that turns us from happy to miserable in twenty minutes needs to be consumed in measured moderation.
Eat less sugar. Try to consume things that you can at least conceptually link to something that actually exists in nature. Run a little bit farther every day. Stop letting marketers tell you how to live your life.
We can do this, folks.
150 Charles, an condo complex in New York City designed by COOKFOX Architects, DPC and Alan Wanzenberg Architect & Design.
The American Institute of Architects has named the 11 winners of its 2018 Housing Awards.
These buildings won the prestigious recognition for exceptional designs that emphasize sustainability and are well integrated into surrounding environments. The jury — which consisted of five longtime architects — gave the awards to homes in four categories: one- and two-family custom residences; one- and two-family production homes; multifamily housing; and specialized housing.
Dubbed the Ghost Wash House, this residence sits along the hillside of Camelback Mountain in Paradise Valley, Arizona.
Along the windows, the house features a bar that shields its residents from the intense setting sun. The home spans 8,500 square feet and contains three bedrooms.
"The Ghost Wash House is not a house in the desert, but a house of the desert," the jury wrote.
In Austin, Texas, the South 5th Residence offers residents a very large living-room window.
The building is partially made from a rare type of oak.
The home is "very innovative, as are the structural approaches to dealing with a difficult site," the jury wrote, referring to Austin's zoning requirements for building around existing trees.
Overlooking the Hudson River in Manhattan, 150 Charles is a condo complex with a layered facade.
Some of the condos' living rooms open up to expansive patios.
"The use of green space throughout is exceptional," the jury wrote.
The design of the Underhill house in Matinecock, New York was inspired by the history of its location — an early Quaker settlement.
The home has a back courtyard that faces a garden.
The house has "a warm, welcoming modern design with a great use of wood and iron in its ceilings," the jury wrote.
Stationed along a remote lake shore outside of Toronto, this two-story residence serves as a vacation home. Its architects call it the Bear Stand.
The 3,300-square-foot retreat sits on a site that spans nearly 100 acres. Its wooden interiors take inspiration from the surrounding woods.
"The project shows a deep commitment to understanding the site," the jury wrote.
In Palm Springs, California, the Linea Residence G has a huge pool.
The home had a very low construction cost—one fourth the price per square foot as its high-priced neighboring residences. The architect has completed 200 similar homes in the Palm Springs region.
Linea Residence G won because it was relatively affordable to build but didn't sacrifice its modern design. "This house is remarkably beautiful and ... accentuates the nearby landscape," the jury wrote.
This home at 3106 St. Thomas in New Orleans is the first unit of a proposed housing project called Starter Home. It would provide affordable homes in some of the city's historic neighborhoods.
The design makes use of its unusual location in a narrow alley beside a warehouse and two-family home.
The jury considered the project innovative because of the way the home makes use of a tiny lot at an affordable price.
The Navy Green project, a 450,000-square-foot apartment complex in Brooklyn, New York, transformed a former naval site into a housing development that covers nearly an entire city block.
The complex includes four affordable, multi-family residential buildings, two rows of market-rate townhouses, retail space, and a central green space.
"The public green space is a fantastic amenity for all users," the jury wrote.
In Los Angeles, Mariposa1038 sits in Koreatown, one of the city's densest neighborhoods. The building's facade features an eye-catching window design.
All units have backyards or balconies and can be cooled by cross-ventilation. A rooftop deck provides skyline views.
The jury found Mariposa1038 "to be an exceptionally creative and appealing project." The judges said: "Conceptually it's quite simple, nonetheless it's wholly unique and beautiful."
In New Haven, Connecticut, Yale University recently built a dormitory complex in a 1920s Gothic style.
The complex holds Yale's Benjamin Franklin College and Pauli Murray College. It features dorms with 904 student beds, a 300-seat dining hall, a common room, a library, a lounge for faculty and special events, and shared academic and recreation spaces on the lower levels.
"It's stunning both in terms of its massive scale and and its careful attention to the tiniest architectural detail," the jury wrote.
The Crest Apartments in Van Nuys, California provide housing for 64 homeless families, including 23 veterans.
The 45,000-square-foot project includes studio apartments, community spaces for residents, social-services offices, a communal kitchen, a laundry room, a residents’ lounge, and a community garden.
"This project does an excellent job of embracing and addressing every aspect of its location," the jury wrote, adding that the building "embraces sustainability, low energy usage, and a healthy indoor living environment."
Rudi Putra is a 37-year-old biologist from Indonesia. Yesterday he was awarded the Goldman Environmental Prize -- the world's largest prize for grassroots environmentalism -- for managing to shut down 26 illegal palm oil operations in the northern Sumatra. Putra’s work in a region called the Leuser Ecosystem has restored 1,200 acres of natural habitat to the critically endangered Sumatran rhino, as well as the Sumatran tiger, orangutan, and wild elephant.
Putra had a surprisingly simple approach to tackling illegal palm oil operations. First he rallied support from local communities, who by now knew well what devastating effects deforestation can have. (In 2006, catastrophic floods took over the Aceh area, destroying homes and injuring 8,000 people; the floods were made worse by illegal logging.) Next, Putra got the local police force on board, and went with them to speak with plantation owners. Twenty-six agreed to shut down on their own, once they understood that they had overstepped conservation boundaries; only 2 refused and faced arrest by police.
When I spoke with Putra a few days ago, he told me that the population of the Sumatran rhino has increased significantly since he started working in the Leuser Ecosystem. In 1950, there were an estimated 39 individual rhinos. That number dropped to 20 in 1990, but now in 2014 there are 45 to 55 rhinos in the area where he works.
Putra explained that illegal palm oil plantations are especially detrimental to rhinos because they cannot live near humans. Orangutans, Sumatran tigers, and elephants, on the other hand, are able to live near humans, but that poses other risks. Illegal poaching is a serious problem, since ivory is very profitable, and the market for live orangutans is huge throughout Indonesia. Tigers are killed because they’re viewed as a safety threat.
Putra’s latest battle is against the federal government, which has recently proposed new legal palm oil plantations throughout the Leuser Ecosystem. This would be devastating for the animals that Putra has worked so hard to protect from illegal operations. In 2013, he organized an online petition that got 1.4 million signatures and was a motivator for talks between the Indonesian government, Europe, Norway, and the Aceh peninsula (where Leuser is located).
Putra’s dedication to the Indonesian rainforest is inspiring, as is his refreshingly simple approach to promoting its preservation – just talking to people and explaining why it’s important to care. Sometimes you never know what doors will open, just by having a face-to-face conversation.
From palm oil invaders to adorable Sumatran rhinos, this story about a recent environmental victory will inspire you.
This were there results without changing the timings il try that now.
Thank you for all your help!
One more thing, if you get a BSOD or crash, the BSOD code (mot event code) is important do indentify possible solutions.
Im just asking because wont it lower my temps if i lower the vcore and still keep it stable?
GFlops seem a bit low, just wanted to see if you can get them higher, try a little more and if there is no improvement in GFlops you can try to lower it as before or even less.
When OCing or even at stock clock the system must be stable and also deliver the computing power it is capable to. We're not OCing for the numbers in CPU-A we're OCing for performance.
I wouldn't recommend setting vcore below default anyway.

I guess you can lower vcore to what it was before or even lower. Just make sure Flops are the same and the machine is stable.
tRD 6 might work with CAS 5, again it will need extended stability testing.
Maybe you can push it some more if low vcore lets you to 3.1-3.2GHz.
So basicly this is it i only need to find a bit lower good vcore watching the Tflops and that should be it if i want to keep it at 3.0GHz?
Yup, and test stability with Prime95.
How do I play dreidel? The one I bought didn’t come with instructions.
But I assume you know the basics: You spin the dreidel, and then everyone sits there and waits for it to fall off the table. Then you crawl under the table and squint at the letters, which are helpfully the same color as the rest of the dreidel, and announce what it says, from under the table, unless it’s a gimmel, in which case no one believes you and they all have to come under and check.
Gimmel: You get the whole pot. You’re also allowed to perform a short victory dance which may or may not include spiking your dreidel.
Hey: You get half of what’s in the pot. If there’s an uneven number of items, you need to get a knife.
Shin: You put things back in the pot. No one likes shin, which is why dreidels in Israel have a pey. But it doesn’t help.
The object of the game is to eat all your chocolate coins before you get a shin.
You can use anything to play: pennies, paper money, M&Ms, jelly beans, or even raisins, if you don’t want your kids to care who wins. In my house, we have so many dreidels that we can play dreidel with dreidels. Whoever rolls a gimmel gets to keep all the dreidels.
Dreidel is a classic game that Jews have been using for thousands of years to teach their kids about gambling. And kids like the game, because it’s pure luck and involves absolutely no strategy, and that’s the only way they’re going to beat adults at a game that doesn’t involve memory. The only strategy in the game is that if you go first, you have a better chance of winning, because the only way for the last player to do well on his very first turn is if absolutely no one before him gets a gimmel or a hey.
How come the house has to lay out all the money?
Why are there hadassim on the dreidels?
What do I do with all these extra dreidels that I don’t want? Do I have to throw them in shaimos?
When someone gets a gimmel and takes the whole pot, does that mean the game is over?
Or do you start with nothing in the pot and no one wins anything until people start getting heavy amounts of shins?
How much do you put in when you get a shin – everything you have, or just half, or what?
Either way, if you’re just waiting until one player gets a gimmel, how long can a game take? It’s not like the odds of hitting gimmel are incredibly small, like in a casino. It’s not like the gimmel is on the side with the handle, where if you can get your dreidel to never ever fall down and just spin indefinitely, you win. Or else you’re stuck in a dream.

As for Polis’s temperament — and, therefore, his potential capacity to inflict harm — see what you think of the video below.
